STOCKTON - The Delta College volleyball team didn't have much time to prepare for its first postseason opponent.
STOCKTON - The Delta College volleyball team didn't have much time to prepare for its first postseason opponent.
So the Mustangs will just have to rely on the talent that led to 19 regular-season wins and a fourth seed in the Northern California playoffs.
They will host No. 13 Solano at 7 p.m. today in a first-round matchup at Delta's Marcopulos Gymnasium. The seedings were announced Sunday, giving teams about 48 hours to prepare for their opponents.
Monday's practice was spent working on the things the Mustangs (19-5, 12-2 Big 8 Conference) do well, since they didn't play the Falcons (21-3, 15-1 Bay Valley Conference) this season.
"I'm really just focusing on us. We can control how we perform, that's the main thing, and limiting errors," Delta coach Molly Mordaunt said. "I did look at our opponents' wins and losses. They won their conference and they have a really good record."
Just because there was a quick turnaround doesn't mean the playoff mood hasn't hit.
"There's definitely more pressure, and it's more nerve wracking," Delta all-state outside hitter Lauren Kissell said. "But it's also more fun because there's more to gain and more to lose."
Kissell had an outstanding year. The 6-foot outside hitter from St. Mary's is ranked first in the region and second in the state with 414 kills, and first in Northern California and third in the state in kills per set average at 5.11.
"It's not all the time that you get a kid like Lauren Kissell, a well-round Division I-level player," Mordaunt said. "And we've surrounded her with talented people. When we play well, we're hard to stop."
Today's match begins a postseason journey that the Mustangs hope leads to the state tournament, which will be held Dec. 7-8 at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills.
"I honestly think we can go to the state tournament if we play well and avoid mistakes," Kissell said.

/ 2011 Grassland Reserve Program Archive
Loading Tree...
The Grassland Reserve Program (GRP) is a voluntary program that helps landowners and operators restore and protect grassland, including rangeland and pastureland, and certain other lands, while maintaining the areas as grazing lands.
The program emphasizes: Support for grazing operations, plant and animal biodiversity, and protection of grasslands under the greatest threat of conversion.
GRP is authorized in the 2008 Farm Bill. The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) administer the program. Funding for the GRP comes from the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC). Producers can apply at USDA Service Centers in North Dakota.
How the Grassland Reserve Program Works
Applications may be filed for a rental agreement or easement with NRCS or FSA. Batching dates are established to evaluate and select applications for funding. April 1, 2011, is the cut-off date for applications to be considered for 2011's allocation of funds.
The Program Offers Several Enrollment Options:
Rental Contract: Participants have the option of choosing a 10-year, 15-year, or 20-yearcontract. USDA will provide annual payments in an amount that is not more than 75 percent of the grazing value established by the Farm Service Agency. Payments will not exceed $50,000 per year per person or legal entity and will be disbursed annually.
The following documents requires Acrobat Reader.
North Dakota's 2011 County Rental Rates (PDF; 58 KB)
North Dakota's 2011 Geographical Area Rate Cap (GARC) (PDF; 17 KB)
Permanent Easement: This is a conservation easement in perpetuity. Easement payments for this option equal the fair market value, less the grazing value of the land encumbered by the easement. These values will be determined using an appraisal process or an area-wide market analysis. North Dakota State law precludes the permanent easement option.
Restoration Agreement: Certain grassland easements or rental contracts may be eligible for cost-share assistance up to 50 percent of the cost to re-establish grassland functions and values where the land had been degraded or converted to other uses.
Participants may contribute to the application of a cost-share practice through in-kind contributions. The combined total cost-share provided by all sources may not exceed 100 percent of the total actual cost of restoration. Payments will not exceed $50,000 per year per person or legal entity.
Ranking Criteria
Applications will be evaluated and selected based on state ranking criteria.
The following documents may requires Acrobat Reader.
North Dakota Evaluation Worksheet (PDF; 20 KB)
North Dakota Evaluation Instructions (PDF; 12 KB)
The FY 2011 North Dakota GRP sign-up will prioritize funding to applicants within the Major Land Resource Areas (MLRA) 53A, 53B, 54, 58C, 58D, 60B, and 63A. Please refer to the MLRA map for more information about these Resource Areas.
ND MLRA Map (PDF; 452 KB)
Eligible applicants include landowners and operators who have general control of private land (for rental contracts), landowners who can provide clear title on privately owned lands (for easements), and Tribes.
The Adjusted Gross Income provision of the 2008 Farm Bill impacts eligibility for GRP. Individuals or entities that have an average adjusted gross nonfarm income exceeding $1 million for the 3 tax years immediately preceding the year the contract is approved are not eligible to receive program benefits or payments. However, an exemption is provided in cases where two-thirds of the adjusted gross income is derived from farming, ranching, or forestry operations.
Eligible land includes privately owned or Tribal grasslands; land that contains forbs (including improved rangeland and pastureland or shrubland) for which grazing is the predominant use; or land that is located in an area that historically has been dominated by grassland, forbs, or shrubland that has the potential to serve as wildlife habitat of significant ecological value.
Cooperating Entity Eligibility
A unit of State, local, or Tribal government or a non-governmental organization that can demonstrate the following conditions may enroll eligible land under a cooperative agreement through the State office:
�/span> A commitment to grazing land conservation;
�/span> Capability to acquire, manage, and enforce GRP easements;
�/span> Sufficient staff to monitor easement stewardship; and
�/span> Availability of matching funds.

Given the fact that most all American/Europian comics are fully colored, what's your opinion on manga still being 99.9% monochrome, outside of covers and the occasional first page or two?
Obviously, adding color means it's more expensive to make, which will usually mean it's more expensive to buy, and it would take longer to produce. If it reached the point that it's expected to be in color, this would also mean that it would be more difficult for smaller studios and independent mangaka to make a name for themselves.
Those are the usual arguments made, oftentimes in a (understandable) fit of rage in response to when someone gets butthurt about Japan being "behind the times" compared to American comics. While I think there's a lot of truth to the above reasons, I think they're becoming less and less valid.
You could say that it stifles creativity, but that would be ignoring the precedent set by current American comics - despite the increase in cost, we're still graced by creative, uninhibited comics like Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina, Crossed, Invincible, etc etc. Additionally, you have dozens of dozens of ongoing series that have no end in sight, and are fully colored (most all of these are superhero based, but hey, I guess that's what sells over here. Personally, of the typical Marvel/DC comics, I just read Deadpool =P).
You could talk about cost, but that kind of goes out the window when we're talking about large corporations producing money making machines like Bleach and Naruto. And personally, I would gladly pay a couple extra bucks for Jump if they made the most popular series fully colored. For popular, established series, I see no valid reasons whatsoever for them not to be colored. If Naruto volumes were fully colored and cost $15 instead of $8, I'm pretty sure we'd still have legions running around with headbands and adding -dattebayo to the end of their sentences that would gladly pay.
I think the perfect middle ground would be this: have the "norm" still be black and white, for cost effectiveness. This might lead to the kind of over-saturation we currently see, but to me having to wade through piles of crap manga to get to the good stuff is totally worth it. But, I think the norm should also be color for series that reach a certain benchmark of popularity. Say what you will but I think the only reason this isn't currently the case is just a refusal to evolve, and the fact that people (including myself) still buy them regardless.
tl:dr - manga being in b/w has it's benefits, but I see no excuse for popular manga to not be colorized.
Whether color is added or not, it doesn't really take away or add anything. Vibrancy, maybe, but frankly I could care less.
If the entire chapter was colored it would take up alot of the mangaka's time. He/she will either have to hire more staff or to delay their releases.
Families are not held together by blood.
No reason to think the mangaka would have to do the coloring. The company that produces it would have to hire/contract colorers, just like in American comics. And there's no reason to think it would delay releases at all. It's not like the second the mangaka submits a manga to be produced it goes on store shelves, there's a process. If there's an extra week or two in that process, we would never ever know. It would just mean that they're working that much farther ahead of the retail release schedule.
Great topic. I think as thesandboxhero noted that having a colorer do the work would be a good way to prevent a longer delay and it would mean more employment for those people (which I understand is many) interested in working in manga as well as enhance the appeal of the medium in many cases.
See you, space cowboy
i really dont care if its colored as long as its good
Colour? Who needs it anyway (in a manga, that is)? As long as the drawing and plot are well done, I don't think us manga lovers would really care if a rainbow sat on our manga books or not. Plus, doesn't the lack of vibrancy differentiate manga from normal comic books, no?
I recently picked up volumes one and two of DarkStalkers graphic novels, and found that I very much enjoyed the color. I was a little surprised; I generally don't touch western comics. (By "generally," I mean "ever.") That said, the art in the vast majority of western comics I've seen turns me off so thoroughly that all the color in the world doesn't help, and the pace at which manga is serialized in Japan generally precludes large amounts of color work. It'd have to be released more slowly, which I really wouldn't like.
In the case of works that are short anyway (like my absolute favorite manga, Doll, by Mitsukazu Mihara, it could work better, I think, and I WOULD love to see it, but honestly, it just doesn't bother me that it's line art.
I don't mind it not being colored. When I get a volume and see the first two pages colored, it's a lovely surprise, but for the most part I am totally and utterly fine with it the way it is. As for the comic's here being all color.. Well, sometimes they aren't really that good. You get a "Kapow!!!" in one panel and then a "Zip-zoom!" in another. Wooo.. wow, that's can totally blow your mind!! Not. Because they take so much time coloring their zip's, kapow's, zoom's, and bam's they don't have time for much details (well, some). Manga pages usually have a lot of details going on in them.. so yeah.
That there is my opinion..lol.
And it just keeps esculating..
If it is going to take up too much time, why not release not-colored manga's first, and let othe rpeople hired for colors start from the start of the manga and release it later in full-colored volumes. (I mean i wouldnt want a manga half colored and half not colored, and i wouldnt want to wait longer for the releases of manga, so why not color the old ones, and let the new ones release not-colored first just to color them a bit later. No waiting longer for new chapters, and the mangeka's can see if they like it or not, so they dont have like 200 episodes not-colored, suddenly 5 colored and it didnt work out, so the last 105 chapters are not-colored again... Well you know what I mean, plus i would re-read the old chapters if they are colored.
Living a life I can be proud of.

My best guess there would be expense. On top of having to pay the staff responsible for handling colors, you have to go through the trouble of republishing a second edition. Color publication is drastically more expensive, and I'm not really convinced the sales would be all that great. I know I wouldn't buy a second copy of any of my manga just to get color, with the possible exception of Doll. If the sales don't make enough to be a significant profit, it's probably not worth the time and distraction to the publisher and its editors/marketing staff. A lot of these concerns might become less significant, if the digital manga stuff the major publishers are starting up in Japan takes off, but for traditional publication, I'm just not sure there's really any money in re-printing the same manga in color.
Meh I'm not 5 I don't need colors to hold my attention. If a manga's good, it doesn't need color.
Besides, a lot of mangaka release art books to show off their full artistic skill, so it's not really a matter of "stifling creativity".

np needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 154 designs submitted by 41 freelance designers.
Travacle (Travel-Oracle) will be a new social network centered around travel. Our mission is to help people experience travel, culture and the adventure that is life. We want Travacle to be the best travel information on the planet.
Our goal is to become the #1 website for travel information on the planet. We want to target travelers, both foreign and domestic, ranging from ages 25-45. We want Travacle to be the place people turn to when planning their next vacation.
We are looking for a logo and font to represent our Travel Social Network - Travacle. We hope this is the first of many design projects, and that one day, this will also be the logo for the site's iPhone app.
We would love to have the logo incorporate a combination of the following concepts:
- an oracle (which we envision as a type of orb)
- a globe
- maybe a siren
However, if you come up with something better, GO FOR IT!
Here is an example of an orb with a globe feel that we like: http://themzini.files.wordpress.com…ursive.jpg
We would also like the font to be both smart and fun
Something kind of like ...
@Travacle - the best travel information on the planet
(but with an amazing design and font)
1. No Cartoons - we want it to be playful but not cheap or childlike
2. Nothing too elegant - we want it to be smart, but do not want to come across as being too fancy. We want travelers from all walks of life to feel like this is a site for them.
3. The typeface should be clear, simple and bold. We want something that stands out. Again being careful not to be too fancy.
Please feel free to experiment with colors!
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo

2009-10 Conference Primers: #20 – Sun BeltPosted by rtmsf on October 17th, 2009
Matt Poindexter is a regular RTC contributor.
Predicted Order of Finish:
- Western Kentucky (17-1)
- Troy (14-4)
- Middle Tennessee (11-7)
- Florida Atlantic (6-12)
- South Alabama (5-13)
- Florida International (2-16)
- North Texas (15-3)
- Denver (12-6)
- Arkansas-Little Rock (11-7)
- Louisiana-Lafayette (9-9)
- Louisiana-Monroe (8-10)
- Arkansas State (5-13)
- New Orleans (2-16)
All-Conference Team:
- A.J. Slaughter (G) – Western Kentucky
- Nate Rohnert (G) – Denver
- Desmond Yates (F) – Middle Tennessee
- Rudy Turner (F) – Louisiana-Monroe
- Jeremy Evans (C) – Western Kentucky
6th Man: Brandon Hazzard (G) – Troy
Impact Newcomer: Isiah Thomas. Usually, this is where we pick out the best incoming freshman or transfer in the conference. But for the first time in a very long time, people are paying attention to a Sun Belt team in a month that is not March. One can't be sure if Isiah's hiring at FIU will be a huge boon for the conference in terms of exposure, or if his actions will make him a white elephant, but his impact will be unparalleled either way. As far as on the court, New Orleans guard Billy Humphrey, a transfer who averaged 12.2 PPG for Georgia before being dismissed from the team following a DUI, is the most proven and highest rated player to make a Sun Belt debut in 2009-10.
What You Need to Know:
- If you're going to pick out guy to win Player of the Year, it has to be WKU's A.J. Slaughter. He probably would have won the honors in 08-09, but his teammate Orlando Mendez-Valdez overshadowed him. Now that Mendez-Valdez has graduated, expect Slaughter to outshine everyone else in the Sun Belt.
- For the past two years, Western Kentucky has been the team to beat in the Sun Belt. In 2008 and 2009, they won the conference tournament and went on to NCAA tournament upsets, beating a #5 seed each year in Drake and Illinois. If not for poor free throw shooting, the Hilltoppers very well could have claimed a victory over Gonzaga in last year's tournament to go to the Sweet 16.
- Isiah Thomas isn't the only one who has moved out of a powerful program and into a Sun Belt coaching position. John Brady, coach at LSU during their 2006 Final Four run, is now at Arkansas State and Mike Jarvis helmed the St. John's program prior to his current job at Florida Atlantic. North Texas' Johnny Jones was the last coach (for one season) at Memphis before some guy named Calipari took over.
Predicted Champion. Western Kentucky (NCAA Seed: #11). Since North Texas made a run and won the conference tournament in 2007, it has been WKU all the way in the Sun Belt. Even though conference Player of the Year Mendez-Valdez is no longer with the Hilltoppers, the return of guard A.J. Slaughter should mean that the conference championship trophy stays in Bowling Green for another year. Couple that with the increased inside presence of WKU center Jeremy Evans and the fact that they return 4 starters from last year, and there's no reason to bet against the Hilltoppers.

Frustrated mom wants a transfer for bullied child
A Beaumont mother is exasperated and unsure of her next move if her daughter can't get another transfer within Beaumont Independent School District after claims of bullying and a fight caught on a camera phone prompted an earlier transfer.
La'Toyya Ozane, a 35-year-old mother of three daughters, said she's concerned about her 14-year-old daughter's welfare heading into high school – if she goes – following what's been a tumultuous middle school existence. Ozane would like for her daughter, Tierra Turner, who completed eighth grade at Marshall Middle School this past school year, to enroll at West Brook for the 2012-13 school year. Turner is slated to go to Central High School based on where the family lives; however, the girl that Ozane said has bullied her daughter is already at Central and she doesn't want her daughter to have to go through the heartache all over again."It's been a difficult three years," said Ozane, who had to apply four times for Turner to get a transfer to Marshall Middle School from Smith Middle School before it was finally approved following a fight between Turner and the girl – who's a year older – in the Smith School hallway that was caught on camera by another student's phone.
"It's too bad that's what it took in the first place before they finally did something," said Ozane. Turner, then a seventh-grader, can be seen fighting another girl in a rather grainy video while scores of students looking on can be heard yelling and screaming.
"She had no choice but to fight," said Ozane, who added her daughter is an introverted type and unfortunately, like so many other kids, is not immune to being bullied. Ozane had attempted to get a transfer for her daughter prior to her attending Smith because she had concerns about the quality of education at the school. After one attempt in fifth grade, and two in sixth and finally in seventh grade, the transfer was approved.
According to Ozane, the bullying, which consisted of constant pushing, hitting and disparaging remarks about Turner, also involved a boy who allegedly choked and touched her inappropriately.
Craig Eichhorn, communications specialist for the district, said in an e-mail that unfortunately for Ozane, there were only 20 transfer slots available to West Brook for the upcoming school year and Ozane's request was number 64 on the list. "Transfers are granted on a first-come, first-serve basis if there is space available at the campus," said Eichhorn.
Ozane said her daughter's situation is different and that the school district already acknowledged as much by granting the first transfer, so why wouldn't they allow Turner to transfer again, especially since the girl who bullied Turner in middle school is at Central already?
"I talked to Dr. (Carrol) Thomas last Thursday, and I was very disappointed," said Ozane, who had met with the outgoing superintendent last year and he personally approved the transfer from Smith to Marshall. According to Ozane, he was less than familiar with her situation at their latest meeting.
"He looked at me and acted like he had no idea who I was," she said. Thomas went on to tell her that if he "granted my daughter's transfer, he'd have to do it for everyone else," she said.
It remains unclear if the district allows exceptions to its transfer rule. An e-mail sent to the district about possible exceptions to the transfer rule was not returned.
After speaking at a board meeting on Monday, June 18, Ozane said she was optimistic that something would be done regarding her daughter's transfer. Nothing was. In the meantime, she'll continue to prod the district into allowing her daughter to transfer because with the anxiety she's suffered over the possibility of going to Central next year, Turner will probably have to repeat eighth grade again at Marshall thanks to substandard grades and test scores.
But she would like go to West Brook. And home schooling remains an option, if push comes to shove.
"I went to West Brook, and I know it's different there from Ozen and Central," said Ozane, who said she doesn't think her daughter would be bullied at West Brook. She maintains that her stated motivations for seeking a transfer are sincere, saying she isn't trying to castigate the district and doesn't want to pursue legal options.
"I'm not doing this for financial gain," said Ozane. "I'm doing what's best for my baby."

Three-year deal includes retransmission consent for CBS-owned stations on Verizon FiOS TV
CBS Corp. and Verizon Communications Inc. have reached a new agreement for continued retransmission of CBS-owned stations and wider distribution of CBS Sports Network on Verizon's FiOS TV in multiple markets across the country, it was announced today by both companies. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
"We are very pleased to reach this agreement with Verizon and its FiOS service," said Ray Hopkins, president of television networks distribution at CBS Corp. "This deal was reached in a short period of time, and CBS has once again achieved fair value for our over-the-air rights. Verizon is a distribution partner of growing importance to us that provides excellent service to its expanding number of subscribers, and we are glad that this partnership will continue and grow."
"We've reached this agreement in partnership with CBS for our customers, so that they may continue to enjoy CBS content on FiOS," said Terry Denson, vice president of video content and strategy at Verizon. "Verizon continues to address areas of change where necessary in current policies to better reflect the interests of consumers."
As part of the agreement, CBS-owned stations in various Verizon markets, including New York, Los Angeles and Dallas, will continue to be distributed to FiOS TV subscribers. This includes all of the approximately 3.5 million subscribers served in markets where CBS owns television stations. (FiOS has approximately 5 million subscribers in total.) FiOS TV will also continue to provide - free to the viewer - CBS programming via Verizon's industry-leading video-on-demand services to all subscribers.
In addition, the CBS Sports Network will dramatically increase its distribution with FiOS. Separately, CBS and Verizon have an existing agreement for FiOS to carry Showtime Networks and Smithsonian that will continue in the years to come as well.

A new clip from "The Avengers" shines a spotlight on Scarlett Johansson — as well as writer-director Joss Whedon's trademark wit.
The 43-second clip, released one month before the film hits theaters on May 4, represents the first "Avengers" footage revealed by Marvel since the trailer. The film assembles a dream team of mighty heroes, including Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America (Chris Evans) and Hulk (Mark Ruffalo).
The new scene shows Johansson as S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Natasha Romanoff, a.k.a. the Black Widow, helplessly tied to a chair, surrounded by a military man and two goons. Well, maybe "helplessly" isn't quite the right word.
"I'm in the middle of an interrogation," she says, with a trace of exasperation, into a phone propped on her shoulder. "This moron is giving me everything."
On the other end of the phone is her colleague, Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg), who makes it clear that this can't wait — Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) has been compromised. What follows is a bone-cracking, wood-chipping, back-flipping action sequence in which Johansson takes out the baddies, while still tied to that chair. It's a combination of sass, chilled confidence and martial-arts prowess that would make Buffy proud.

Growers are still learning to use fungicides on cotton, and the system will require some tweaking, says Jack Royal, a southwest Georgia cotton consultant.
"We're continuing to look at fungicides to see if they work," said Royal at the recent Beltwide Cotton Conferences held in San Antonio. "If we can make our growers $1 per acre more after all of his expenses, then it would be worth the trip. We're all in the same boat — if the growers can't stay in business, we can't stay in business."
Royal, who has been in the crop consulting business for 31 years, says he has seen cotton make a comeback in his area. "Luckily, we can grow a variety of crops. We're about 70-percent irrigated. We still plant corn and we have a good many peanuts in our area. We don't plant a lot of back-to-back cotton — we might plant two years of cotton, then a year of peanuts, or we put a year of corn in there with the peanuts. That's basically our rotation," he says.
Royal says there weren't many cotton disease problems in his area of Georgia last year, but that wasn't the case throughout the state.
"In the southeast region of the state, there were problems, and there's no doubt foliar diseases can be a problem. At times, they can be isolated. And like in southeast Georgia in 2008, some years are worse than others and some fields seem more susceptible than others," he says.
It's most likely, he adds, that weather patterns drive disease development. "On the east side of the state, conditions were extremely dry, and growers were irrigating a lot. They also got a hurricane earlier in the season. Overall, diseases seemed much worse in that part of the state," he says.
The major foliar diseases of cotton are cercospora leaf spot, alternaria, stemphylium and aerolate mildew, he says.
The severity of the problems with these diseases varies, says Royal. "In my area, 95 percent of the cotton is planted in DP 555. A few spots can develop into a real problem," he says.
The big question, he says, is do fungicides work on these diseases? "I don't think there's any doubt about that. When we compare untreated fields with fields treated with Headline at 6 ounces — where diseases are a problem — it's obvious fungicides do work. We see a yield difference in the treated fields of about 370 pounds per acre," he says.
It's pretty well documented, says Royal, that a potassium deficiency can drive disease development. Potassium deficiencies cause weak cells in the plant that encourage the spread of disease.
In soil and petiole samples taken after severe disease development had occurred, there was significant difference between potassium levels in the soil between the treated and untreated fields, says Royal. However, there was a significant difference in the potassium levels in the petiole samples.
"This raises a lot of questions," says Royal. "Did the treatment of Headline help with the uptake of potash from the soil? Did diseased foliage affect potash uptake? Why was the potassium level higher in the treated side than in the untreated? You have to start off with enough fertilizer potash in cotton, and if you cut fertilizer, you'll cut yields. In my area, we run from a Greenville soil all the way down to an Americus soil. Since we soil test each year, and we put out our soil amounts, we always trim about 20 to 30 pounds off.
"If it calls for 100 pounds of potassium, we'll put out about 70 to 80, and when we come back with our nitrogen at first bloom, it's become a habit with our growers — and it seems to help especially on our deep sandy soils — to side-dress all of our cotton with 20 to 30 pounds of potassium in with our nitrogen before first bloom, and that usually carries us."
Royal says he used to pull petiole samples on every field, using 200 or 300 petiole kits each year. "Over the years, we probably had less than five that came back with low potassium, and usually it was with heavy rain events and in very sandy soils. Some growers might be trying to cut back, and that's the reason for the difference in the petiole uptake."
In trials conducted in east Alabama last year, there was a slight increase in yield in fields treated with Headline, but it wasn't enough to pay for the application, says Royal.
Farmers need to ask themselves if there is a value in using fungicides on cotton, he says. "There definitely is if you need it — if you know you're going to have a problem. I don't know which conditions need to occur to make the application cost effective. We do know that fungicides must be used preventatively. It's like buying car insurance — you've got to have it because you don't know whether or not you'll need it. The trick is knowing when."
Growers are still learning to use fungicides on cotton, says Royal.
"We've learned to use fungicides on grain and on corn. Eight years ago, I sprayed corn for the first time, and no one else was spraying corn. But we knew rust was coming in from the South. It made us look like a hero with our growers, and for several years after that, we didn't need to spray corn."
As far as the growers in his area, Royal says they'll be planting DP 555 for two more years. "We know we can get the seed this year, and if we can get it in 2010, we'll plant it. We don't know if the new varieties will be different — there are a lot of unanswered questions. Right now, I can't go to my growers and suggest they spray every acre with a fungicide, based on the data I've seen. We'll continue to look at it, and see if we can find a niche."

UH graduate programs ranked in US News "America's Best Graduate Schools 2004"University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Public Affairs
The William S. Richardson School of Law is listed in the top 100 law schools in the country in this year's ranking of America's best graduate schools to be released next week. The UH law school is ranked 86th among the 177 US schools surveyed — just ahead of Marquette, Georgia State and Santa Clara, and just after such schools as the universities of Oregon, South Carolina and Miami.
"We are pleased to continue to be ranked among the top law schools in the country by our peers on the mainland," said Dean Lawrence Foster. "Here in Hawaii, where most of our alumni work, our reputation for quality legal education is second to none."
The school also places well in the magazine's new law school diversity index, with accompanying notes indicating that the student body at the law school is 62 percent Asian-American.
"Diversity is a key element of a sound legal education program," Dean Foster added. "We are proud of the strong diversity of our law school."
This year's rankings are based on surveys conducted in fall 2002. They measure selectivity in admissions, placement success after graduation, faculty resources and a quality assessment by the dean and faculty members of each school surveyed.
Graduate programs in international business at the College of Business Administration were again ranked in the top 25 in the country, listed as 21st — just ahead of the University of Washington and just behind Michigan State University.
Business College Dean David McClain commented, "The College is pleased to once again be ranked among the top 25 by U.S. News for its graduate programs in international business, particularly since the competition includes some of the most prestigious and best financed business schools in the nation.
"Our ranking reflects the dedication and expertise of our faculty, who are recognized throughout the world for their knowledge of Asia-Pacific business," McClain added.
Specialty category rankings are based on selections by educators at peer institutions. Business school deans and program heads were asked to nominate programs for excellence in each of a half-dozen specialty areas, and those with the most votes appear in the list of the top 25.
Data tables will appear in the US News and World report publication — America's Best Graduate Schools 2004 — available on newsstands Monday, April 7. Some data have been posted today at www.usnews.com.

Market Basket workers urged to 'shut it down'; deposed CEO urges fired workers be given jobs back
By MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
Thousands of Market Basket workers rally in Tewksbury, Mass., on Monday to pressure the supermaket chain to rehire its ousted CEO. (MICHAEL COUSINEAU/UNION LEADER)
Market Basket customers gather in Portsmouth to support workers
Eight Market Basket execs fired
TEWKSBURY, Mass.
— Thousands of Market Basket employees rallied in support of their ousted CEO on Monday and were urged to do what they could to shutter all the chain's supermarkets, including about 30 in New Hampshire, until the CEO returns.
Meanwhile, deposed CEO Arthur T. Demoulas issued his first public statement on the matter, urging that workers who were fired over the weekend be given their jobs back.
"This is not going to end until you shut it down," Steve Paulenka, a top organizer from Londonderry, N.H., told a workers armed with signs who assembled in a parking lot of a strip mall containing a Market Basket.
Paulenka was one of eight workers given termination notices over the weekend.
Police and organizers each estimated the crowd reached into the thousands. Many workers who cheered and waved signs had skipped their normal work shift at stores that were suffering from a lack of deliveries. Workers ramped up the pressure on the company to bring back Arthur T. Demoulas, who, many said, treated his workers like family members.
In a statement issued Monday night and posted on several media sites, Arthur T. Demoulas said: "This is the first time I have commented publicly on the recent events at Market Basket. The success of Market Basket is the result of two things: a business model that works and the execution of it by a dedicated and impassioned team of associates. Their fierce loyalty to the company and its customers has always been deeply valued. In the final analysis, this is not about me. It is about the people who have proven their dedication over many years and should not have lost their jobs because of it. I urge that they be reinstated in the best interest of the company and our customers."
"Can't run the company without our family father, our leader," said Michael Wojcuilewicz, who works at the Milford, N.H., store.
A group of workers from the Seabrook, N.H., store said they planned to stand outside rather than return to work later Monday.
"We're going to shut it right down," said grocery clerk Dan Murray.
His colleague, Allen Pelletier, the grocery manager there, said he also would heed the call.
"Oh yeah," said Pelletier, who's worked there 17 years and hopes to retire in another 24. "I have the keys to the store; I can."
Last week, the company warned workers that those who abandoned their jobs would lose them. A spokesman Monday didn't immediately respond to an email seeking comment on the rally.
Paulenka said all 15 stores he visited Sunday had fewer customers than normal.
"Every store is down," he said. "It's only going to get worse."
At the rival Hannaford supermarket chain, "the stores have been busy" in recent days, Hannaford spokesman Eric Blom said Monday.
"We've certainly seen a lot of activity in the stores," Blom said, adding "it's inappropriate to talk about any particular competitor."
New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan issued a statement urging Market Basket to listen to the concerns of its workers.
"It's heartening to see just how much the workers of Market Basket value the company and respect its past, present and future," the governor said. "I encourage Market Basket leadership to continue in that spirit by listening to their employees' concerns and seeking to quickly address the situation with a focus on keeping their dedicated workers employed and reducing the impact on customers."
An online petition to reinstate the former Market Basket leader has garnered more than 12,500 signatures.
Even before Monday's call to shut the Market Basket stores, some workers weren't reporting to work.
Stephanie Gauthier said she was supposed to be working at the time of the rally, the fourth shift she's missed in the meat department at the Nashua, N.H., store on Amherst Street. She was supporting the former CEO instead.
"He's the owner; he built this," Gauthier said. "To freaking throw him out was an injustice."
Richard Pirelli, an assistant grocery manager at the Milford store, recalled when Arthur T. Demoulas came to the grand opening of the Tilton, N.H., store years back when Pirelli worked there. Demoulas was greeting customers, noticed produce counters were running low and jumped in to help.
"He saw the problem happening, and he resolved it," said Pirelli, who has worked for the chain since age 14.
Pirelli said the Milford store this week was running out of certain items. "There's hardly any produce. No chicken. There's no fish. The deli's almost empty."
He urged Market Basket customers to stay away from stores until the dispute is settled. "We got to hurt 'em in the wallets," Pirelli said.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. –Alexis Yohe of Barry University has been selected as the Louisville Slugger/NFCA Division II National Pitcher of the Week for April 3.
The reigning Sunshine State Conference Pitcher of the Week, Barry's Yohe made her mark from the circle in a major way this past week by going 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA, two complete game shutouts and 10 strikeouts over 14 innings of work as the Buccaneers took two-of-three games from then-No. 7 Rollins (L 1-5, W 4-0, 1-0). In a 4-0 triumph over the Tars, the senior hurler scattered four hits while posting six strikeouts. During the series finale, Yohe tossed a one-hitter and retired 14 of the final 15 batters she faced in the 1-0 victory. The pair of wins marked the first time an opponent had shutout Rollins in consecutive games since back on April 23, 2008. Yohe currently leads Barry with a 12-5 pitching record and 90 strikeouts over 110 innings of work to go along with a 1.78 ERA and five complete game shutouts.
Yohe is the first Buccaneer to earn national pitcher of the week since 2003.

"You'll have to speak up"
"...my hearing's not too good anymore." When I first asked Lowell Hess if he would mind answering some questions about his career he gratiously offered to let me drop by that afternoon.
"Actually, I'm calling from Canada, Mr. Hess, I don't think I can make it there this afternoon."
"Well," he replied, " we're leaving here in January. Moving out, so.."
Lowell Hess is 84. I didn't feel it would be appropriate to ask, but the reason for a move at that age seems obvious. Hess has lived in this house a long time. "The oldest house in town", he states matter-of-factly.
I ask if he still does work for Graphics3, the greeting card company that was the focus of the latter part of his career. "No..."
Does he still enjoy drawing or painting for pleasure?
"Well, I have Parkinson's. There's no point trying to draw when your hands won't stop shaking."
I worry that I've taken too much of Hess' time so I tell him thanks for speaking with me at such length. I ask if he has access to the internet, explain that he could see these posts online.
"You just write it down and mail it to me. You have my address?" Yes, I say, and recite it back.
Ehh... if there's one thing I could add, " says Hess. "Tell them to approach every job with enthusiasm. One thing I always did, no matter whether it paid well or not, I tried to be enthusiastic about every one of them."
"Mr Hess, I just want you to know what an honour it was to speak with you, and to let you know that there are a lot of people out there, a lot of working professionals, who remember your work and who are still influenced by it. You've been a big influence on a lot of illustrators. Its great work."
"Well", says Hess, "you've made my day."

hi, thank you so much for sharing these images of lowell hess. I'm french and i've never heard of him before, and i must say that i'm very impressed by his illustrations, i would be very curious to see more if it was possible. it make me think a bit to al hirschfeld for the clarity and the strengh of the line, but in a more realistic way. I'm really glad to have discovered such art ! that's really the good thing about the internet...ReplyDelete

Just want to congratulate you on your wonderful interview with Lowell Hess.ReplyDelete
Your effort and generosity in sharing with us all is greatly appreciated. You kept me in
suspense by splitting up your reporting and felt as though I was reading a mini series.
Mr. Hess words of wisdom rings true with you. Thanks for your enthusiasm in a job well done.
- Anonymous9:26 AM
Well, thanks Leif, for doing this interview and a job well done...ReplyDelete
I was instantly attracted to his work, when I first saw it 5-6 years ago on Shane Glines' forum. I did learn a bit from whatever of his work that I saw eversince, I liked the way he laid his colors. I really appreciate your efforts on this. Please tell him he has an admirer in India.
On that note, may I also add that, since so much of publishing activity is going on in the field now, probably somebody should attempt a book on him and another great from those times, Sam Berman.
John Lurker.
And Leif you've made my day. These have been great articles.ReplyDelete
I'd like to wish Mr. Hess all the very best. I am a illustrator doing children's books and greeting cards. I've looked to Mr. Hess many times in my "inspiration folder" to get that enthusiasm for each job he speaks of.
And being an animator and illustrator in Atlanta, Georgia, to see the strength and clarity of Lowell's characters and layout is quite an inspiration. I was vaguely aware of Mr. Hess's name before this series -- and I do have to say that I've seen his work (or, perhaps, his influence) many many times in the magazines and ads that I've collected throughout the years. I love his spot illustrations, with the limited use of the 2 colors, and there's something especially fascinating with the Collier's cover and Little Golden Book that you featured here, Leif. Great job with the interview and would love to see a follow up on Lowell and his body of work.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the enlightenment!
It's been a real pleasure to read your interview with Lowell Hess this week, Leif. I'm grateful to see any of his rare and excellent artwork, and it's such a treat to get a glimpse of the artist behind it. Thanks!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous1:24 PM
Thanks, Leif.ReplyDelete
A nice interview and a fantastic introduction to a tremendous illustrator whose work I was previously unfamiliar with.
You're doing a great service with this blog (and nice to see something like this from someone local), and I can't wait to see who you showcase next.
Bill Angus
Big thanks from me too, Leif. I've been a big fan of Hess's stuff since Shane brought his stuff to light.ReplyDelete
I've been collecting his judge covers from ebay whenever I see them up. The man definitely deserves his own book.
Thanks for sharing!

The main goal of the Priestly Society of St. Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.
The spirit of the SSPX is missionary; it reaches out across the world—through its priests, religious, and a growing number of families, young people, and all its faithful—to establish and maintain true and lasting devotion to the Catholic Faith. In its work to reach all, the offices of the US District maintain a professional environment in accordance with regulations regarding discrimination, pay, and fairness, along with a spirit of Catholic action and principles. The SSPX thus desires, prays, and works for the salvation of all, trusting that this is possible with God's help.
The SSPX firmly believes that the Catholic Faith changes individual lives as well as society; that the Faith promotes order, justice, culture, and peace; that it offers real and lasting happiness. Despite the widespread unbelief rampant throughout the world today, the SSPX, through the priesthood, continues to unfold and distribute the treasures of Catholic Tradition. This courageous and unrestrained gift of self for the glory of God and the good of souls constitutes the core value and motivation of the SSPX.

CLEVELAND (AP) Eduardo Escobar usually shows off his power during pregame batting practice.
On Monday night, he did some flexing in the 10th inning.
Escobar homered on Cleveland closer John Axford's second pitch of the 10th, giving the Minnesota Twins a 1-0 win over the slumping Indians.
Escobar, who entered as a pinch-hitter in the seventh, connected on a 1-0 pitch from Axford (0-3), driving it over the wall in right for his first homer since June 20 and fourth of his career in 344 at-bats.
''He can swing it, we've all seen that,'' said Twins manager Ron Gardenhire. ''You watch him in batting practice, he hits them as far as anybody. It's a big moment. It's cool. You see the big smile on his face and everyone else.''
It was the second straight gut-wrenching loss for Axford, who gave up a three-run homer in the ninth to Chicago's Dayan Viciedo on Sunday as the White Sox rallied for a 4-3 win. In that game, Cleveland catcher George Kottaras homered twice, becoming the first player in franchise history to homer in his first two plate appearances, and Corey Kluber struck out 13.
''Bad pitch,'' Axford said of his fastball to Escobar that caught too much of the plate. ''It's unbelievable. It's a shame that my performances have kind of taken precedence over a great hitting performance by George and outstanding pitching performances by Kluber and Zach.''
Caleb Thielbar (2-0) pitched a perfect ninth and Glen Perkins struck out two in the 10th for his eighth save.
Escobar came in for Pedro Floriman and grounded out with two runners on in the seventh. He more than atoned with his game-winning shot into the seats.
''It's a great feeling to be able to come up with a big swing in that spot,'' he said. ''I'm really happy for the team more than anything else.''
The Indians, who only got two runners to second base, had been the only team in the majors not to play in an extra-inning game.
Cleveland has dropped eight of 10, and scoring is a huge issue. The Indians have scored three runs or less in 19 of their 32 games.
''We're fairly inconsistent right now,'' manager Terry Francona said. ''Even in hitters' counts, we're not getting real good swings. I think when it's team wide, everyone is trying to do much. It's a good quality but we've got to fight through it together and keep the line moving and we're not doing that.''
Both teams got strong efforts from their starting pitchers.
Minnesota's Kyle Gibson allowed only two hits in seven scoreless innings, and Cleveland's Zach McAllister gave up five hits while blanking the Twins over 6 2-3 shutout innings.
The Twins played without first baseman Joe Mauer, who is day-to-day with lower back spasms.
Gibson has been blessed with an abundance of runs all season. The Twins came in averaging 7.14 runs in his first five starts, but they couldn't push one across against McAllister, who was pitching on regular rest after going on three days' last week in Los Angeles.
Gibson and second baseman Brian Dozier combined on a sparkling defensive play in the fourth.
Michael Brantley hit a grounder toward right that Dozier stopped with a dive before spinning in one motion and throwing toward first. With first baseman Chris Colabello out of position, Gibson alertly covered and snagged Dozier's throw on one hop before sliding into the bag ahead of Brantley.
''The only thing that could have made that play more funny than it was, was if Colabello had gotten hit right in the butt,'' Gardenhire said. ''He had no clue where the ball was going. That was a great, athletic play by Dozier. I've never seen a pitcher go sliding into first base like that to catch a throw.''
NOTES: Indians OF Michael Bourn missed his second straight game with a tight right hamstring, the same one he had surgically repaired in October. Bourn could be headed to the disabled list for the second time this season if it doesn't respond. ... Cleveland placed DH Jason Giambi on the DL with a strained calf muscle. The 43-year-old is 0-for-10 this season. ... Twins rookie SS Danny Santana made his major league debut as a pinch-runner in the seventh and nearly got picked off second. Indians manager Terry Francona challenged the safe call but it was upheld. Santana got his first big-league hit in the ninth. ... Indians RHP Josh Tomlin will make his first start Tuesday since July 27, 2012, three weeks before undergoing Tommy John surgery. ... Twins RHP Samuel Deduno will start Tuesday after seven relief appearances. He had shoulder surgery in September.

PGP, RSA, DSA, Elgamal?
I would also read the encryption tutorials written by some of the members of A.O
hmm.. what i meant maybe is the relationship? is PGP using RSA encryption algorithm or something like that..
There either names for the algothim used, or there product name.
RSA is a type of algothim, but they can use a varitey of one way fuctions. Its the daddy of public key encryption really. which is what the others you have listed are based on, all using different mathmatical algothims.
so u mean PGP is not using RSA PKCS?
and is thought RSA is a company.. however i guess the three person who invented PKC could have started the company later on called it RSA..
PGP, RSA, DSA, Elgamal?
PGP and RSA is a public key system. You distribute your public key and people can encrypt stuff so that only you can read it. This works because the modulus is so large it is basically unfactorable.
DSA is private key encryption which means there is one key to encryp and decrypt. More dangerous because you must share the key through a secure channel.
Elgamal no idea.
PS: Not mathematically explained. Google it.
what about digital signature?
if i have this message to transmit, i signed this msg.. will it be the same with other message that i signed?
Read the tutorial(s) mentioned by DA's above post.
Just to add a few items to prev posts to get your mind going...
<disclaimer> this is not a tutorial...just some snipits of info to try to help...also I'm not an expert in this field but have some insights for you </disclaimer>
* Stands for Pretty Good Privacy
* Use this to sign your data, encrypt it, or both
* Based on public/private key architecture: you encrypt message with the recipient's public key (you must exchange public keys first) then the recipient decrypts it with your public key
* Uses RSA, DSS, or Diffie-Hellman for public-key encryption
* Uses CAST-128, IDEA, or 3DES for symmetric encryption: symmetric is a share key situation where same key encrypts and decrypts
* Uses SHA-1 for hash coding (signing)
El Gamal:
* Encryption algorithm
* Extension of Diffie-Hellman key exchange design
Digital Signatures:
* Used to guarantee identity of person
* Ensures integrity is maintained
* Digital signature: In PGP, hash code of message created using SHA-1, message digest is encrypted using DSS or RSA with sender's private key and included with message
Hope this helped more than hurt. Happy reading.

BURLINGTON — When Middlebury Union High School freshman Tim Shea picked up the puck at the blue line with less than two minutes remaining in sudden death overtime of the Division II boys' hockey state championship against the top-seeded Stowe Raiders Tuesday evening, destiny seemingly took over.
Shea walked in alone on Stowe goaltender Matt Rauch, faked him to the ice and lifted the puck into the net at University of Vermont's Gutterson Field House to win the Tigers their first state hockey title in 15 years. The final score was 2-1.

I recently attended a potluck birthday party where a lot of people (including the birthday girl) were quite health conscious (good for them for sticking to their New Year's resolutions!), and a few others had allergies, while others were vegetarians so I was told to bring something versatile and healthy. I was stumped! But then my Mom helped me come up with the perfect thing, which I am now going to share with you. It's great for any party and even to keep in the fridge for a quick snack for yourself or your kids.
Start with a nice head of lettuce that has big, firm leaves. Most grocery stores will sell these big leaves in a bag, and some are actually curved like taco shells and are called "lettuce shells". After that – go nuts with what you put into them! You can take absolutely anything you want and wrap it up in the lettuce. On the platter I took to the party I included several types of sliced meats from the deli – chicken, smoked ham, roast beef, and also some slivered vegetables – carrots, red peppers, cucumbers. I also included a few strips of cheese. Everyone commented on how great it was to roll up your own little sandwich and it was nice to try all kinds – or to stick with just veggies if you don't want the meat. After making the tray I thought that I should have also added some soft cheese like goat cheese, a side of salsa, and maybe some fresh herbs to add such as dill, parsley, and maybe sprouts or pea shoots. Slivered pieces of apple would also be nice in these wraps.
Feel free to steal this idea for your next brunch or potluck party. And I've actually just put some of the above in baggies and grabbed a few to quickly wrap as a quick snack or food on the go. It's great to have something quick, easy and healthy to grab and it takes very little time to prepare. It's an extremely tasty, creative way to get your veggies in and not to consume so many carbs as you would if you had made an actual sandwich with bread. And we all know eating more veggies is great for the body and skin!

Pac-12 Morning Five: 03.29.12 EditionPosted by AMurawa on March 29th, 2012
- Washington State continued its season on Wednesday night with the second of a three-game series with Pittsburgh for the championship of the CBI Tournament. With the Cougars winning game one on Monday night, they had a chance to sew up the title, but fell at the Petersen Events Center by four, forcing game three on Friday night. Once again, the Cougs had to go without junior forward Brock Motum, who is out with a sprained ankle, but Reggie Moore led the way in trying to cover for his absence. Moore had 18 points and was instrumental in keeping WSU in the game in the second half, getting to the line repeatedly. Still, the Panthers, playing without a star of their own, as Ashton Gibbs sat out with his own ankle injury, did a good job of limiting any type of second option for the Cougs, including Abe Lodwick, who had been steady in the last two games without Motum. The status for both Motum and Gibbs for Friday night's game remains unclear at this point.
- Stanford plays in the final of the NIT tonight, and regardless of what happens in that game against Minnesota, this has already been an important March for the Cardinal program. They've won six of their seven games in the month (although their loss in the Pac-12 tournament quarterfinal to California killed their NCAA dreams) and have earned the right to continue getting extra game action, extra practices and extra confidence, so much so that Stanford could be among the favorites at the top of the conference for next season.
- There was a shakeup in the Arizona State athletic department on Wednesday, as Lisa Love is out as athletic director and Steve Patterson, who was previously the chief operating officer of the athletic department, is in. Under Love, both the ASU football and basketball programs have struggled, and given that she was responsible for the hiring of the head coaches who have run those programs since she was brought on board in 2005, her firing is not unexpected.
- The McDonald's All-America game was Wednesday night, and Shabazz Muhammad, currently very much on the radar of the UCLA program, had a big night, scoring 21 points and earning the game's Most Valuable Player award. Still, Muhammad's holding out until April 11 to announce his final decision, but he has reportedly narrowed his field down to the Bruins, Duke and Kentucky, with his hometown school, UNLV, dropped. Elsewhere at the McDonald's game, Arizona commitments Grant Jerrett and Brandon Ashley did the dirty work in the all-star game, combining to score 14 points and grab 12 rebounds, while UCLA signee Kyle Anderson went for 13 points, eight assists and eight boards.
- Lastly, the Oregon State season may be over, ending short of its goal of an NCAA Tournament bid and of a modified goal of a run to the CBI championship, but all things considered, it could be a stepping stone year for the Beavers from conference also-ran to legitimate contender. If guard Jared Cunningham decides to forgo the NBA Draft and return to Corvallis, the Beavs will only lose Kevin McShane, who averaged just eight minutes per game, while bringing in three freshmen and adding the services of redshirt freshman Daniel Gomis, who missed the year with a broken leg.

The Eagles' coordnators were at the podium today. Here is a sampling of what they had to say:
* Defensive coordinator Juan Castillo conceded these are trying times with the Eagles struggling. Castillo mounted an impassioned defense of Eagles coach Andy Reid, after being asked how he felt, with Reid's job security being called into question, partly because of the gamble he took in promoting Castillo.
Castillo said: "In life, you work hard, and you work hard, and you outwork people. And usually when you do that, good things end up happening, sometimes later than sooner. But if you just outwork people, and do things the right way, like coach Reid has done here, and the way he he's taught me, which is work hard, believe in all your players, never talk about your players, coaching fundamentals, and you know what? Nine out of 12 years going to the playoffs is not a bad thing. It's not over yet. We're working our ass off. The players are doing it. The coaches are doing it. You talk about coach Reid -- let me tell you, that man works 20, 21 hours a day. Sometimes 22 hours a day. That's what we're all doing now, to try to get this going ... The fans don't like it, the organization don't like where we're at, but more than anything, we don't like where we're at. Our players don't like it.
"Do they have character? Yeah, we have character ... We're going on things we've done, we've had exeprience, we'd have success with doing ... We believe in what we are doing.
* Addressing the problem in fourth quarters, Castillo said the players are working hard and you have to believe that things will change. He said these are tests on how strong your faith is. He said third downs were the critical issue late in the game against Arizona.
* Castillo said you have to credit Larry Fitzgerald for some of the great catches that he made. Castillo said some of them came in double coverage, there were some tipped balls.
* Castillo also pointed out that the defense has scored a touchdown in each of the last two games.
* He said the Giants are going downfield with their passing game more often than they were early in the season. Castillo saw this as a function of increased confidence.
* Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said he knew Michael Vick was hurting a little bit against the Cardinals on Sunday. He said he did not know it was broken ribs, but it certainly did help explain a few things once he learned of the injury.
* Mornhinweg said Vick will not have to practice to play Sunday. He said he remains optimistic that Vick can play and called him a "tough man." He said he knew Vick was doing everything he possibly could to try to be ready to play.
* He pointed out that with five drops the Eagles' offense did not help Vick very much.
* On the progress of Vince Young, if Vick can't play, he said, "[He's grown] in leaps and bounds. He came in without any type of offseason at all and with a little bit shorter camp. He's been working hard both on and off the field and in the classroom. [Quarterbacks coach] Doug Pederson has been doing a great job and has great confidence in Vince. I think he'll play well."
* Mornhinweg said the Eagles could have given the ball more to LeSean McCoy, but he said there were some one-on-one opportunities in the passing game that the Eagles did not take advantage of.
* Wide receiver Jeremy Maclin (hamstring, shoulder) did not participate in the walkthrough, although Mornhinweg described him as a fast healer. Riley Cooper would get the playing time if Maclin did not play. Obviously, since the Eagles promoted Chad Hall from the practice squad, Hall could be active.
* Mornhinweg said it was a good possibility that left guard Evan Mathis (turf toe) would be able to play this week.
* Mornhinweg discounted the impact of Kevin Kolb calling out plays, saying it had absolutely no effect and disputed the idea that Kolb had any idea what the Eagles were doing.
* He said the Giants are quite possibly the best pass rushers in the NFL.
* Special teams coordinator Bobby April said Hall, elevated yesterday from the practice squad, will also be a returner, playing behind Dion Lewis on kickoffs and DeSean Jackson on punts. But April said those decisions are up to head coach Andy Reid.
