STONEVILLE, Miss. — Where there was little interest, he found potential. Where research looked narrowly, he looked broadly.
Soybean agronomist Larry Heatherly, whose decision to tackle a farming puzzle by thinking "outside the box" — several years before the phrase became popular — retired from the USDA's Agricultural Research Service at Stoneville on Oct. 15.
The Union City, Tenn.-native spent almost 30 years at the research center where he has been credited for advancing soybean yield growth in the Mid-South by advocating an Early Soybean Production System (ESPS).
During the 1970s and most of the 1980s, Heatherly recalls, Mississippi soybean yields averaged about 20 bushels per acre, while soybean acreage dipped below 3 million acres.
"Soybeans was the crop you could grow on clay soil and lose the least money," Heatherly said. "The goal then was at best to break even."
Last year, the state's average yield for soybeans set a record-high 39 bushels per acre, with expectations of similar numbers for 2004.
Farmers can attribute the remarkable, lucrative yield turnaround to planting four to six weeks earlier than traditional planting dates, as well as the availability of maturity group 3 and 4 varieties adapted to Mid-South.
First, however, was Heatherly's development of the stale seedbed system of planting, which permitted planting soybeans with little, if any, tillage in the spring. Though that method did not increase yield, it paved the way for early-season planting, which did.
Heatherly said the key to the soybean growth was a shift in both farmers and agronomists' way of thinking.
"Conventional wisdom was to plant soybeans in May or later, harvest in the mud in November and try to start over again next May," Heatherly said. "We were continually knocking our heads against the wall because every year we were asking this plant to produce seed in these hot conditions when it is just not physiologically possible."
Beginning in the mid-1980s, agronomists began examining alternatives, while seed companies — previously expressing little or no interest in improving soybean varieties — slowly began investing.
Proof positive
For his part, Heatherly realized that the ag methodology was incorrect, but it wasn't until listening to a speaker at a 1986 conference that the possible solution manifested.
Heatherly, Glenn Bowers, who first introduced the early-variety idea while working in Rio Grande, Texas, and Lanny Ashlock, a former Arkansas Extension soybean specialist, collaboratively became outspoken proponents of the idea.
"Without stale seedbed or the early varieties we could not have done this. It was a synergism. Things came together, and I was fortunate to work on the same thing and build on everything year after year," he said.
It was not until 1992 that Heatherly became entirely convinced that early planting could be successful. Despite the fact that the Mississippi Agricultural Statistics department had not yet monitored early varieties' progress, Heatherly established his own anecdotal proof.
"I had not published numbers or taken surveys. But I had been here 17 years and kept up with a group of farmers who had the courage to use it and were getting yields we weren't used to seeing," he said.
One of those first farmers was Willard Jack of Belzoni, Miss., who described the development of the ESPS as a "remarkable evolution."
"In my opinion, of all the people (involved), it was Heatherly and his work and vision that made the soybean economically viable," Jack said. "It has just been tremendously successful."
Question everything
Heatherly's farming exploration started as a teenager with hard labor at home, where his father provided his three sons with 40 acres to farm on their own.
When Heatherly reluctantly began commuting to the University of Tennessee at Martin, he became attracted to learning the science of farming via textbooks. His academic success resulted in a graduate degree at UT-Knoxville and a doctorate degree at the University of Missouri, where professors insisted he diversify his research work — an important experience, he insists.
"We are trained to observe, to think, visualize, rationalize and conceptualize. But if we don't get outside the box, we are not scientists," he said. "I know a lot of scientists who spend a career working inside the box. That is fine, they enhance or add to.
"But sometimes you have to have a big change."
Heatherly said his exclusive research on improving soybean yields has been personally satisfying.
"Every experiment tells a story, but no one experiment tells the whole story, so you keep building on the last experiment
"You have to question everything and do not accept that something can't be better. I know now that soybean yields will be better after I am gone because there is room for improvement and someone else will come along and look deeper."

PRINCETON — It's time for Bureau County residents to "be a force of nature" and get ready for Severe Weather Preparedness Week.
Bureau County ESDA Coordinator Kris Donarski has announced the theme for Severe Weather Preparedness Week, March 3-9, is "Be A Force of Nature". Co-sponsoring the annual observance are the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
To become a force of nature when it comes to the weather, the sponsors are asking people to not only to be prepared themselves, but also to encourage their friends, extended families, and co-workers to be prepared as well, Donarski said.
During Severe Weather Preparedness Week, NOAA and FEMA are highlighting the importance of planning and practicing how and where to take shelter before severe weather strikes, Donarski said.
"Being prepared to act quickly can be a matter of life and death," Donarski said. "Being a force of nature goes beyond taking appropriate preparedness action. It's about inspiring others to do the same. We're asking people not only to be prepared, but also to encourage their social network to act by texting, tweeting, or posting a Facebook status update."
Donarski said it's important for people to review severe weather preparedness information each year and to not take safety for granted.
"I think that severe weather can sometimes catch us off guard as we transition from winter weather conditions to severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. Also, we may have residents new to our area who are not familiar with the severe weather terminology," Donarski said. "Then there are also the people in our community who have relocated to a different home or apartment and may not have developed their emergency plan of where to go when severe weather threatens."
On Thursday, Bureau County Red Cross director Lori Compton also commented on the importance of people being proactive when it comes to dealing with the potential of severe weather in Bureau County. People should have disaster preparedness kits prepared, including necessary items like bottled water, non-perishable food items, a battery-operated NOAA radio, first aid kit, medications, and family and emergency contact information. The American Red Cross does have emergency kits available for individuals and families, she said.
The important thing is for people to plan ahead, get their emergency kit supplies on hand, and to take seriously the potential of severe weather happening they live, Compton said.
Additional safety information is available through various websites, including the Illinois Emergency Management Association (IEMA) web page, the American Red Cross and National Weather Service.

One of the biggest concerns about loved ones as they age is the risk of social isolation.
According to the Administration on Aging, those over 65 represent almost 15% of the population. This number is expected to double by the year 2060. With the percentage of our aging citizens on the rise, it is important to recognize the cognitive and physical benefits of socialization on healthy aging. Regular social interaction between seniors helps to:
• Improve self-esteem
• Decrease loneliness
• Reduce depression
• Strengthen psychological well-being
• Enhances communication skills
• Build relationships
• Boost memory, potentially decreasing the risk of Alzheimer's Disease
Whether it be at senior centers, adult day care programs or through structured therapeutic recreation programs in a skilled nursing facility, there are many ways to ensure that older adults maximize their social potential. Building on past or current interests is key to keeping seniors engaged. For those who enjoy playing cards, something as basic as poker, canasta or even a game of crazy eights with others not only allows them to continue to pursue their past interests, but also it provides an opportunity to foster social relationships based on a common thread. For others who are more adventurous or outgoing, joining a book club, a modified yoga class, or sports club can help promote feelings of purpose and enhance quality of life. Participating in meaningful, structured activities enables a person to engage with others, develop friendships and feel a sense of belonging.
Factors such as decreased mobility, cognitive or physical changes or other health conditions should not hinder a social lifestyle. Socialization contributes to keeping the mind sharp and studies have shown exercising the mind with conversation and activity can potentially decrease the risk of Alzheimer's disease and mitigates the effects of chronic illness. Encouraging an aging loved one to become a social butterfly can be the best advice you can give to help improve their vitality in the golden years.
The Gurwin Jewish Family of Healthcare Services offers a variety of services that enhance socialization, including social and medical adult day care programs, home care programs, therapeutic recreation programs within the skilled nursing and assisted living communities.

We study the Neumann boundary value problem for stationary radial solutions of a quasilinear Cahn-Hilliard model in a ball in . We establish new results on the existence, uniqueness, and multiplicity (by "branching") of such solutions. We show striking differences in pattern formation produced by the Cahn-Hilliard model with the p-Laplacian and a potential () in place of the regular (linear) Laplace operator and a potential. The corresponding energy functional exhibits one-dimensional continua ("curves") of critical points as opposed to the classical case with the Laplace operator. These facts offer a different explanation of the "slow dynamics" on the attractor for the dynamical system generated by the corresponding time-dependent parabolic problem.

We've long looked at the online-offline gap. This comes down to the challenge in connecting the dots between increasing levels of online research and the sheer volume of offline spending (95 percent of U.S. retail). This is ROBO: research online to buy offline.
Now we're not only seeing things like retail inventory feeds (i.e., Milo), and mobile shopping and payments start to connect those dots, but they're even starting to reverse the flow. In other words, flipping ROBO on its head: using offline research to facilitate online buying.
This is also known as "showrooming," essentially using physical stores as showrooms for product research before buying from a more price-competitive online marketplace like Amazon. And of course smartphones, shopping apps, and cameras (read: barcode scanners) empower this.
Ironically the e-commerce players that were relegated to research tools under ROBO, are now getting their due in this new environment. The tables have turned on their offline counterparts, especially those who haven't stepped up the challenge.
Amazon has followed this trend more than anyone, going as far as offering discounts on items scanned in stores, using its app that's made for this very purpose.
See Me, Hear Me, Touch Me, Feel Me
But to what degree is showrooming actually happening? One indication was offered last month through a report from Pew Research. During the holidays, it reported that 52 percent of adult mobile subscribers used their devices in some way, while shopping in physical stores.
Overall, 38 percent called a friend for advice, 24 percent looked up reviews, and 25 percent researched better prices (both online and offline). Segmented by demo, the numbers skewed higher for users 18-49, urban, and college educated.
More importantly, when asked about the outcome, 35 percent said they made a purchase at the same store where they pulled out their phone. Glass half full, that's good. But if you consider that mobile research drove away about 65 percent of mobile shoppers… not so much.
Breaking down those deserters, 37 percent didn't purchase at all while 19 purchased the product online and 8 percent did so at another store. That's a full 27 percent that bought somewhere else, due to the mobile information they were able to summon while in a given store.
Not Getting the Picture
So what does this tell us? As U.S. smartphone penetration reaches 50 percent, mobile shoppers are becoming smarter and more empowered.
In other words, embracing mobile shouldn't be a choice for retailers if they're going to beat Amazon et al, at their own game. That means launching apps — or working with retail feed aggregators like Milo – to offer personal recommendations and incentives to in-store shoppers.
But yet retailers continue to show laggard adoption of mobile product innovation. A December survey from AisleBuyer revealed that only 55 percent of retailers have a mobile app or website with m-commerce functionality.
Many provide store locators (87 percent) or product search (74 percent), but transactional features trail behind. Merchant-facing tools are even farther behind, showing little interest in arming clerks with tablets or smartphones to streamline customer service, inventory search or payments.
But its clear from the above Pew data that these tools – on both merchant and user ends – are becoming table stakes. These include inventory search, deals and loyalty, personal shopping, and payments.
Getting There
We're starting to see a little of this – albeit anecdotal – from retailers like Home Depot. But most of the innovation is coming from the tech sector, from companies like PayPal (which happens to power Home Depot's mobile payments).
Another example is Shopkick – bucking the showrooming trend in lots of ways. Last month, it announced that its app drove $110 million in revenue for partner retailers in 2011. To date, it's also reached 1 billion in-app deals, 5 million store walk-ins and 10 million product scans.
As it often does, this innovation starts at the National-local (chain) level before it moves down market to the local-local segment. But the tools will become more pervasive and democratized over time (just like what happened to SEM). Shopkick has even launched an SMB program.
Meanwhile a huge opportunity awaits whoever can fill this gap. Retailers can no longer afford to wait and see. Those that do will lose customers to e-commerce and bricks and mortar competitors. Milo founder (now with eBay), Jack Abraham perhaps said it best:
"Brick and mortar retailers have to be where their customers are. And where there customers are now, is on their phones."

text: Need a music cue for your goofball comedy heist movie? Take a listen to this. It's a sneaky & quirky track held down by upright bass and unusual whacky percussion. The lead melody is played on a Japanese Koto, though in this environment it doesn't sound like you'd expect. Sparse button accordion, brushed jazz snare & cymbals, and castanets rounds out the vibe. Perfect for film, TV or video games that need to score a scene with characters that are up to no good, but doesn't take itself too seriously.

Could face lawsuit over Roethlisberger
Capital City, the nightclub that was the site of a sexual assault allegedly carried out by Ben Roethlisberger, has hired a lawyer to handle requests and prepare for the possibility of being sued over the incident.
So far the club's manager, Rocky Duncan, has been formally interviewed by authorities in Milledgeville, Ga., and Carl Cansino, a criminal defense lawyer there, said the club will cooperate with requests by police to speak with other employees.
"He was managing the bar. He accommodated the parties by making the VIP room available, and he did not witness any of the offenses that have been alleged," Mr. Cansino said Thursday.
Police are investigating allegations that the Steelers quarterback sexually assaulted a 20-year-old woman at the night club, near the college campus, last Friday. Police have not filed any charges.
Investigators have obtained video from the club, but none of the cameras was trained on the VIP room where Mr. Roethlisberger was socializing with friends, Mr. Cansino said.
Cameras were instead trained on the front entrance and the main bar area.
Agents with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, which is assisting Milledgeville police, were supposed to photograph the interior of the club Thursday in order to make a sketch of the premises, Mr. Cansino said.
Tom Davis, special agent in charge of the bureau's Milledgeville office, has not returned requests for comment.
Milledgeville police Deputy Chief Richard Malone, who conducted the first news conference on the situation last week, deferred to his boss, Chief Woodrow W. Blue Jr., who was not available.
A focus of the investigation has been a rest room near the VIP lounge where evidence has been collected. The rest room is for use by VIP patrons and musicians playing live gigs. Mr. Cansino described the space as a small, plain unisex bathroom.
"It's just a toilet," Mr. Cansino said. "It's not fancy."
Mr. Roethlisberger, who turned 28 on March 2, spent the night of March 4 visiting several bars, restaurants and clubs in downtown Milledgeville.
He was accompanied by Steelers tackle Willie Colon, off-duty Coraopolis police Officer Anthony J. Barravecchio, off-duty Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Ed Joyner and several other men who have not been identified.
Before the group got to Capital City, a Milledgeville police officer was already in contact with the club to let management there know that Mr. Roethlisberger was on his way, Mr. Cansino said. He did not know the name of the officer or how the officer came into contact with the quarterback.
Mr. Cansino said Mr. Duncan, the club's manager, told the police officer that the club had a VIP room that would be available to Mr. Roethlisberger.
Police have said that the alleged victim approached a Milledgeville police officer between 2 and 2:30 a.m. last Friday, and members of her party identified Mr. Roethlisberger as her assailant.
Police came into Capital City around that time seeking the quarterback and his friends. Bar closing time in Georgia is 2 a.m., and the club staff were cleaning up.
"According to our employee at the time, all the patrons were leaving, that's when Milledgeville police made contact with our employee," Mr. Cansino said. "They pointed the direction to where they were, and the police made contact."
Mr. Cansino did not know how long the officer spent speaking with Mr. Roethlisberger and his party, but he said it was more than a brief chat.
Mr. Colon's agent, Joe Linta, said police did not interview his client that night and have not tried to reach him since then. Mr. Linta said Mr. Colon was on the club's dance floor and did not see police interact with Mr. Roethlisberger.
Officer Barravecchio's lawyer, Michael F. Santicola, said police did not speak to his client.
Coraopolis police Chief Alan DeRusso said he learned of the incident Sunday from television and did not speak about with Officer Barravecchio, a 10-year department veteran, until the next day.
"He wasn't involved with anything, and he didn't see anything," Chief DeRusso said. "He didn't get into anything. That's basically it. He just wanted me to be assured that he wasn't involved in anything."
The chief did not press Officer Barravecchio for more information or ask him to submit any paperwork, especially considering he was on vacation because of his longtime friendship with Mr. Roethlisberger.
State police spokeswoman Lt. Myra Taylor said she did not know if Trooper Joyner had submitted any documentation about the incident to his superiors.
Trooper Joyner, who works in the Washington barracks, applied in 2005 to be a driver and assistant to Mr. Roethlisberger. Mr. Santicola described the trooper, who is a friend of his, as a friend of the quarterback.
Lt. Taylor said she is not aware of any internal review of Trooper Joyner's ability to continue working for Mr. Roethlisberger.

Everyone remembers the Steven Spielberg's 1977 classic sci-fi film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," which depicted an imagined first contact with an alien civilization. But most probably don't realize that a few months before the movie came out, real-life scientists believed—at least for a few exciting moments—that they might have detected an actual message sent by extraterrestrials.
It was mid-August 1977, and across the U.S., many if not most people were focused on the shocking death of rock-and-roll great Elvis Presley at age 42. But in Ohio, a 37-year-old man named Jerry Ehman was transfixed by another startling event that—at least for searchers for extraterrestrial intelligence—potentially was even more momentous.
Ehman, a volunteer researcher for Ohio State University's now-defunct Big Ear radio observatory, pebrused data from the telescope's scan of the skies on August 15, a few days earlier. In those days, such information was run through an IBM 1130 mainframe computer and printed on perforated paper, and then laboriously examined by hand. But the tedium was shattered when Ehman spotted something surprising—a vertical column with the alphanumerical sequence "6EQUJ5," which had occurred at 10:16 p.m. EST. He grabbed a red pen and circled the sequence. In the margin, wrote "Wow!"
Ehman's excitement over that bit of arcane information stemmed from the Big Ear's mission at the time, which was searching space for radio signals of the sort that might be emanated by extraterrestrial civilizations, if they were attempting to make contact with intelligent life elsewhere in the universe. To Ehman, this signal, which had come from the direction of the constellation Sagittarius, looked an awful lot like it could be such a message. Observatory director John Krauss and his assistant Bob Dixon, who subsequently examined the data, were similarly astonished by it.
But was it? More than three decades later, the Wow Signal, as it has come to be known to SETI researchers, remains both the first and best potential evidence of communication from extraterrestrials, and one of the most perplexing mysteries in science. Over the years, Ehman and colleagues worked to rule out other explanations—such as satellites, aircraft or ground-based transmitters on Earth. But by the same token, researchers have yet to prove that it actually is message from space. "It's an open question." Ehman told the Columbus Dispatch in 2010. Or as the late science-fiction author Arthur C. Clarke once put it in a 1997 interview with New Scientist magazine, "God only knows what it was."
To grasp the significance of the Wow Signal, it helps to understand what Ehman and his colleagues were looking for.
Back in the early 1960s, Cornell physicists Philip Morrison and Guiseppe Cocconi had tried to figure out how a distant extraterrestrial civilization, if one existed, might try to contact others in the universe. First, they hypothesized, aliens would use a radio signal, since such transmissions require relatively little energy to generate and can travel huge distances across space. Second, they assumed that the aliens would be smart enough to pick a message that other intelligent species might understand, even if they spoke a very different language. Chemicals, they noted, emit distinctive electromagnetic frequencies, or signatures, which is how astronomers can determine the composition of distant planets and stars from their light. Since hydrogen, the most common element in the universe, emits a signal with a frequency of 1420 megahertz, they reasoned that aliens might send out a signal that mimicked it.
But the signal spotted by Ehman was the first that seemed to fit that description almost exactly.
Each digit on the printout represented the intensity of a radio signal, from zero to 35, with intensities over nine being represented by letters. Most of the signals on the printouts were ones and twos. But this one, as signified by the "U" in the middle, was extremely powerful—about 30 times greater than the ordinary ambient noise of deep space. Indeed, it was the loudest, longest signal that the Big Ear, which was shut down and dismantled in 1997, would ever pick up. And the signal was narrowly focused and extremely close to 1420 megahertz, the frequency of hydrogen. In contrast, natural sources of radiation, such as planets, usually send out a much broader range of frequencies.
While that all has seemed so tantalizing to SETI researchers, they've never been able to prove that the Wow Signal actually was such a message. And much about it was difficult to explain. Scientists also were puzzled when they traced the signal to a location northwest of the globular cluster M55—a spot where there apparently was no star or planet. SETI researcher Paul Shuch told New Scientist in 1997 that if the signal did come from an alien civilization, it would have required some amazingly advanced equipment. Assuming that the extraterrestrial beacon was the size of the biggest radio telescopes on Earth, the aliens would have required a 2.2 gigawatt transmitter, vastly more powerful than any existing terrestrial radio station.
But the most puzzling thing about the Wow Signal was that it lasted approximately 72 seconds, and never was detected again, even though in the 20 years that followed, scientists conducted more than 100 studies of the same region of sky. If aliens were trying to contact us, wouldn't they keep repeating their message? Back in the early 2000s, researchers tried once more with a 26-meter radio telescope in Hobart, Tasmania, which was smaller than the Big Ear but more advanced technologically. Despite their ability to detect signals only five percent as strong as the Wow Signal, the Astrobiology Magazine reported in 2003 that they found nothing that resembled it.

It has become conventional wisdom that you need to find a way to disrupt your own industry before a startup, a competitor or a company from a completely unexpected corner of the business world renders your primary business model or core product obsolete.
It's true that a few companies make industry disruption look easy—even routine. Technology giants like Apple, Google and Amazon have proven willing and able to disrupt industry after industry with new products, services and platforms that are cheaper, better and more convenient (often all at the same time) than anything that's ever been available before. But these are the exceptions.
For the great majority of companies, devising and executing an industry disruption is exceedingly difficult—and it may even backfire. The risks are huge, and few organizations have the will to walk away from established business and operating models.
Does this mean incumbents are in a no-win situation? Or can they still thrive in a world of digital disruption without being disruptors themselves?

Scotland's Craig Lee leads Madeira Islands Open
SANTO DA SERRA, Madeira Islands (AP) — Scotland's Craig Lee took a one-stroke lead over American Peter Uihlein and Chile's Mark Tullo on Friday during the suspended second round of the Madeira Islands Open.
Lee shot a 4-under 68 to reach 9-under 135 at Santo da Serra Golf Club.
Uihlein, the former Oklahoma State star who won the 2010 U.S. Amateur, settled for a 64 after playing the first 12 holes in 10 under with an eagle and eight birdies. He bogeyed Nos. 15 and 16.
"It was really fun," said Uihlein, the youngest son of Acushnet chief executive Wally Uihlein. "I hit it well, I putted well and the first 12 holes were pretty special. It was just drawing out perfect. You have a game plan and you just execute it and that's all it was in those first 12 holes.
"There were some really hard holes on the way in and it got very cold at the end so I'm glad to be done. Today I just tried to put a little more focus on my scoring clubs and really put the ball in the right spot on the greens. ... I never really thought about the 59 to be honest, because I knew the holes coming in were tough but it was a really good day."
Tullo had a 69. France's Thomas Levet was fourth at 7 under after a 67.
Fog delayed play for 1½ hours and the round was suspended because of darkness.
"It was very tricky out there," Lee said. "It was pretty cold and then the fog came down and there was a delay so it was pretty hard to focus and get back into it again, but I managed to do that. ... I managed to get my distance control right with a lot of my wedge shots and that's key here."

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 21, 2013) – The ETSU baseball team returns to Thomas Stadium this weekend as the Bucs host No. 26 Florida Gulf Coast in a three-game Atlantic Sun Conference series, beginning Friday night at 7:05 p.m.
- Friday – 7:05 p.m. (Thomas Stadium)
RHP Griffin Krieg (2-0, 4.30 ERA) vs. RHP Ricky Knapp (4-0, 0.87 ERA)
- Saturday – 2:05 p.m. (Thomas Stadium)
RHP Kerry Doane (3-1, 2.03 ERA) vs. LHP Brandon Bixler (2-0, 0.56 ERA)
- Sunday – 1:05 p.m. (Thomas Stadium)
Both teams have yet to name their starter for the series finale.
- The Bucs (12-6, 2-1 A-Sun) are coming off another one-run setback to Winthrop as the Eagles defeated ETSU, 3-2, on Wednesday night in Rock Hill, S.C.
- ETSU left 10 runners stranded and went 0-for-11 with runners in scoring position as the Bucs had the go-ahead run at second with one out in the ninth, but Eric Ruth earned the four-out save to secure the win for Winthrop.
- Senior Andrew Green (Powell, Tenn.) extended his hitting streak to nine straight games after going 2-for-4 with a double and run scored, while fellow senior Derek Niesman (Wellington, Fla.) moved his hitting streak to eight consecutive games as he reached base twice (one hit, one walk) and scored a run.
- Three Buccaneer pitchers held Winthrop to six hits, but Logan Rice (Erwin, Tenn.) suffered the loss after being charged with one run on two hits and tied a career high with four strikeouts.
- Friday marks Florida Gulf Coast's first game since suffering an 8-6 loss to Ave Maria on Sunday afternoon in Fort Myers. The loss snapped a six-game winning streak as the 26th-ranked Eagles enter the weekend 13-4. This also marks the A-Sun opener for FGCU.
- The Eagles rank sixth nationally in WHIP (1.01), eighth in hits allowed per nine innings (6.59), and 11th in ERA (2.09). In addition, Ricky Knapp's four wins rank 16th and his 0.87 ERA is 21st nationally.
- In the A-Sun, FGCU leads the conference in ERA and have tossed a league-leading five shutouts, while its .300 batting average is tied for second with ETSU.
- FGCU was tied with Mercer to win the conference championship in the preseason coaches poll.
- The Eagles lead the all-time series, 10-5, but the Bucs have won five of the last seven against FGCU.
- Green is hitting .425 (17-40) with a double, triple, home run, six runs scored and six RBIs in 10 games against the Eagles. In addition, Clinton Freeman (Jonesborough, Tenn.) has a .353 batting average (6-17) against FGCU.
- Senior Kerry Doane (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) earned the win after tossing two scoreless innings of relief last season in the series-clinching game. Doane struck out four of the six FGCU hitters he faced.
- This weekend is Little League Weekend at Thomas Stadium. Children (13 and under) who wear their little league uniform receive free admission to any of the three games on the weekend.
- In conjunction to the "Little League Weekend" promotion, fans that send in photos of themselves or their children playing little league baseball may have the chance to see them appear on the scoreboard this weekend. Please e-mail the photos to email@example.com.

Hello lovepet, and welcome to the board
I have no advice for you, becuase I am dealing with the same thing and have not figured out how to get him to stop lol
I have a 91 lb Malamute that just turned 2 at the end of Feb. He has done this since he was very young. As soon as he sees the sunlight (or any hint of it!), he is up scratching at the bed. If we ignore him he will start whining very softly, then winds up to howling. If we continue to ignore it he will jump on the bed. If we still continue to ignore him, he will stand over the top of me, drop with his full weight and whine some more while pawing at my HEAD
We spoke with our vet who laughed. He said if I had told him that Nookie didn't want to get up in the morning, he would worry. He said that he is a young dog with energy and when he wakes up, he thinks we should wake up to, and that's ok! I disagree... it's not ok lol... I want to sleep in on the weekends
What my hubby and I do now is take turns. Saturday, I get up with the monster and Sunday, daddy gets up with him. If you do find a way to curb it, please let me know!! And good luck

Hi Lovepet and welcome.
You left out age, breed, sex of dog and if dog is spayed/neutered and these may be important.
I wonder if the dog is doing this to eat, to play, to do its business.
Any additional info might spark some ideas.
Please tactfully EDUCATE or IGNORE posters you don't agree with.
Please PM me & Include URLs and post #'s for any issues and it's my pleasure to help.
I'm firm - but fair. Mind the Rules and enjoy your stay.

A dog will do whatever he can to get what he wants. If you have EVER got up when he starts with this behaviour, even to yell at him, he has succeded. If you have ignored him for a while and then got up out of sheer frustration, you have taught him to try HARDER and LONGER.
I teach dog training and none of my students are allowed to let their dog bark or whine in class or the parking lot. If they do, they must correct the dog with a 1 second POP upwards on the leash. No longer than ONE SECOND or you are "yanking", which is abuse. It has to be almost like the motion of a whip crack (POP - immediate release). It has to be firm enough to startle the dog in the midst of his misbehaviour so he can connect the pop with the crime. You would say "QUIET" in a loud firm calm voice (no emotion) and if the dog does not stop, pop him up again harder the next time he barks. Make sure the collar is up high behind the ears where he can feel it - too low and you're on the muscular part where they can't feel anything. Make sure the collar is snug enough too - it should fit like a watchband - snug but not tight.
If he sleeps in your bedroom, the minute he starts to whine, attach the collar & leash and wait calmly for him to misbehave. Don't touch him, talk or look at him - be an unemotional rock. When he starts to bark, use the technique described. He may yelp the first time - that's OK - you surprised him which is the whole point. If he continues to bark, say nothing, pop harder. He WILL get the point as long as you are FAST, FIRM and ON-TIME with your corrections.
I know everyone has different methods of teaching and I respect that. This is a method that will ALWAYS work if you do it correctly and consistently. Keep emotion out of the mix even though you feel frustrated - frustration may make you inadvertently pop harder. Your dog will quickly learn to be quiet when you command.
Good Luck!
I would be inclined to crate the dog at night until the issue is solved. I would also be inclined to use an electric shock collar (with strength dial and remote, so you control how strong it is and when it shocks) because the moment you pop up out of bed to correct the dog he still thinks he's winning because you got up. The correct time to give him a correction with the collar is when he is just starting to get worked up - before he starts barking. Don't forget to use a command like "quiet" or "settle" or "enough" before using the collar, but be careful to not become repetitive with the command.
Of course I will get flamed for the suggestion of an electric collar because "oh my that is so awful". We have a small electric collar for Peewee (he's a Chihuahua) that is adjusted accordingly, just high enough to get a reaction from him (I can barely feel it). He used to be very jumpy and would get really worked up and yappy which would cause him to stress himself right out. The electric collar has made a world of difference (snapped him out of it), and has made him much calmer. He doesn't have to wear it anymore as he understands "enough" means I have it under control, and he will just lay down and relax now when I say the word. When used as a training tool rather than a punishment device it can really help to snap a dog out of their obsession.

Crating is a good idea BUT he will still make noise & bark. If you can ignore him for the entire time without saying a word or getting up it should work. He may be a tenacious little bugger and keep it up for hours. Depends on your patience.
I have absolutely no issue using an e-collar, as long as the user has been trained properly. I have used it on several dogs with success. However, in this case, the dog would have to sleep with the collar ON all night for the owner to be able to correct him at the crack of dawn. The batteries might wear out overnight and dogs should not be wearing training collars to sleep in.
Try the crate - it will only work if you are prepared to put up alot of fuss on the part of the dog. It may also make the dog anxious if he is already so inclined.
What I like about the collar correction is that is immediate and sends a very clear message - "CUT IT OUT NOW!" Yes, you have to get up and clip on the leash, but it can't be helped. As long as the dog gets nothing when you get up (no talk, no touch, nothing) it will work.
Good luck with whichever method you choose.
I bought Duracell batteries on eBay from Hong Kong. In the grocery store here they were $5 each. The collar took 2 batteries and they lasted about a week with the collar on for about 15 hours a day. On eBay they were $1 each plus a bit for shipping. I bought 25 batteries for $30 shipped, and didn't use them all up. I would suggest anyone check battery life and battery cost on a collar before buying.

A missing child report led to an arrest in Winfield this week. On Tuesday night, the Henry County Sheriff's Office was investigating a missing juvenile or runaway case involving a 14-year-old male. A tip led officers to a home across the street from Winfield-Mt Union High School. At the home, police found Charles William Carpenter smoking marijuana with a group of teenage juveniles.
According to Henry County Sheriff Rich McNamee, Carpenter is being held on $25,000 bond at the county jail for distributing marijuana to persons under the age of 18.
In September, Carpenter was arrested on 15 counts of motor vehicle burglary. He's currently on probation.

This article originally appeared in the November 2008 issue of Architectural Digest.
In 1939, when asked what he considered to be the secret to a happy marriage, Humphrey Bogart deadpanned, "All a husband has to do is to learn to say, 'Yes, dear.'" The remark no doubt brought the chuckle it intended, as the antics of the "Battling Bogarts" were already widely known to be anything but a "Yes, dear" affair. Between 1938 and 1945 Bogart and his third wife, actress Mayo Methot, proved a gossip columnist's delight, providing a steady stream of copy with highly public displays of pyrotechnics that were often as physical as they were verbal, leading legendary wit Dorothy Parker to observe tartly, "Their neighbors were lulled to sleep by the sounds of breaking china and crashing glass."
Just exactly when and where the saga of the Batding Bogarts first began is lost to history, but it appears their fateful liaison was well under way around the time they appeared together in 1937's Marked Woman. Their sudden and intense attraction came at what proved to be a critical juncture for them both, with each floundering in failing marriages and rudderless careers. A petite blonde with big, expressive eyes, Methot was not beautiful in the classic sense of the word, but she exuded an earthy sensuality that was considered quite alluring and was a talented actress and singer. In show business since childhood, Methot had shown great promise on the Broadway stage, and in 1930 she was brought West with high hopesfor a brilliant career in motion pictures. But by 1937, when she and Bogart made Marked Woman, all that early promise had faded away. The veteran of some 20 pictures, Methot had been unable to make the leap from second leads into stardom, and, at 32, she appeared to be running out of time. Like Methot, the 36-year-old Bogart had also come to Hollywood via Broadway, and, also as with Methot, his career had stalled. He found himself struggling to break free of the string of second-tier gangsters he had been relegated to playing after his triumphal performance as the menacing Duke Mantee in The Petrified Forest the previous year.
Aside from an obvious physical attraction, Bogart and Methot were drawn together by a mutual love of sailing. And, of course, there was the drinking. Bogart always admired a woman who could match him drink for drink, but with Methot it was Bogart who found himself playing catch-up. And alcohol brought to the fore the pair's combative spirit. While Bogart's ferocity was largely verbal in nature, Methot was quick to get physical, a trait that led him to bestow upon her the moniker "Sluggy," an appellation that underscored the nature of their relationship.
The Battling Bogarts got off to a riotous start with a major set-to on their wedding day, August 20,1938, with the newlyweds spending their first night as husband and wife sleeping at the homes of sympathetic friends. As usual, however, the pair quickly made amends, and Methot moved into Bogart's Hollywood Hills home, a rambling Spanish-style hacienda on a huge sloping lot above the Sunset Strip that the actor had purchased two years earlier. One of the showplace residences of the Shoreham Heights tract, the house was sited on a promontory that afforded stunning views of the city and the Pacific beyond.
The bougainvillea-wreathed home presented the illusion of serenity, surrounded by exotic plants, fruit trees and flowers, which the actor tended during his hours away from the studio. To the neighbors, however, "Sluggy Hollow," as it was quickly dubbed, offered a different impression—as the setting for knock-down, drag-out fights that more often than not spilled out into the streets.
Sluggy Hollow was a lively place filled with a menagerie of pets that included four dogs, four cats and an aviary, along with an unending stream of houseguests, all of whom found themselves with ringside seats to the alcohol-fueled floor show put on by the Battling Bogarts. James Thurber was so amused after attending a New Year's Eve party at Sluggy Hollow that devolved into a melee, he memorialized the event in a cartoon he titled "Jolly Times 1939," which Bogart proudly displayed above their bar.
Outwardly, both the public and Bogart himself were entertained by the comic opera that was life at Sluggy Hollow. But by the time he achieved screen immortality with Casablanca, things had taken a dark turn, and the house went from being a raucous place to a sad and sometimes frightening one. Her husband's ascent to the heights of cinema success increased Methot's insecurities about her own moribund career and her declining looks, which had been decimated by years of excessive drinking. Methot was always jealous of Bogart's leading ladies, but her paranoia began to reach new and alarming states. On one occasion she actually stabbed her husband in the back with a butcher knife, an event kept out of the papers. (Ironically, in spite of numerous opportunities to stray, Bogart had been completely faithful to Methot, whom he had grown to view more with pity than with passion.) But when Bogart first set eyes on the stunning 19-year-old Lauren Bacall, while making To Have and Have Not in 1944, it was clear the Battling Bogarts had run their course.
Today Sluggy Hollow is but a memory, vanished beneath a huge condominium project. The legacy of the Battling Bogarts, however, may be far more enduring. As the ever-insightful Louise Brooks pointed out, Methot's fiery persona ignited in Bogart all the passions so essential to the Bogey character, a character that ultimately propelled him from mere movie star to cinema icon. As she put it, "He met Mayo and she set fire to him."

So, you're all set with your wedding invites. The banquet has been for the reception party. Your dress is decided and nicely stocked in your wardrobe. Photographer – Check. Favorite Band performing at the venue – Check. This might seem the ideal situation for any bride and groom right before their most important day. But what most of the couples forget till the last moment is their Honeymoon plans.
A wedding ceremony isn't complete without the perfect Honeymoon to a picturesque destination which would be remembered by the couple for the rest of their lives. A Honeymoon tour is unlike the traditional Family Holiday Packages which are full of sightseeing, trying different restaurants all over the destination and shopping at the best arcades of the country. A Honeymoon is the perfect time for a couple to spend more time with each other, rather than clicking photographs all over the town. Hence, choosing the right Honeymoon destination is of prime importance.
Moreover, the Honeymoon destination has to be in sync with the choices of both the bride and the groom – which gives them a chance to relax in their perfect setting as well as do something new and worth remembering. Generally, since most of the couples leave their decision for the Honeymoon till the last moment, they mostly make the choice of going to places where people go for their Honeymoon the most. This is the worst decision any couple could ever make, because the choices of a certain couple, may or may not be the same as another couple.

With China fast becoming a stronger and stronger player in the technology field, government officials are trying to lure manufacturers to invest in the country while protecting their nascent tech industry. Moves such as a value-added tax on imported semiconductor chips and a requirement for adherence to their own Wired Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure (WAPI) WiFi standard had caused a rift between U.S. tech firms and China. WAPI is a proprietary Chinese encryption standard that is not included in IEEE's WiFi standards. This has caused tension in trade relations since the WAPI directive required outside chipmakers to license or partner with local companies to obtain WAPI technology. Foreign companies complained these requirements could lead to price gouging and would force sharing of intellectual property that could be stolen. In the lead up to China's June 1 deadline, Intel decided they would stop offering their WiFi chips to China after they were not able to incorporate the WAPI standard into their existing WiFi chips.?
Now after high-level meetings as part of the U.S.-China Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade, China has agreed not to implement the WAPI standard by the announced June 1 deadline and indefinitely postponed enforcement of their WAPI directive. China will also work with the IEEE to help revise the standard to allow compatibility with current WiFi standards.
"With China being the fastest-growing technology market, the commitment of the Chinese government to work on this issue in the international standards community is an important one," Rhett Dawson, CEO of the Information Technology Industry Council, said in a statement. "From the U.S. industry's perspective, we look forward to working with the Chinese government to help make this a reality."
While the meetings have so far failed to resolve the dispute surrounding the value-added tax on chips, China seems to be cooperating in efforts to resolve complaints. One contributing factor to this level of cooperation may be the difficulty Chinese companies have seen trying to break into the international market with a backdrop of outstanding trade disputes. It appears that China has realized that alienation of potential trade partners and accusations of corporate espionage are not effective methods to use for increasing their standing in the global tech marketplace.
