text: Test that Bale October 7, 2012 11:32 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Sara Brown Farm Journal Livestock and Production Editor Email The following information is a Web Extra from the pages of Farm Journal. It corresponds with the article "Test Cornstalks Twice." You can find the article in Farm Journal's November 2012 issue. Sampling cornstalk bales is similar sampling hay bales, but forage probes should be sized appropriately for corn stalks, says Justin Sexten, University of Missouri Extension beef specialist. With the brittleness of stalks and husks, he advises cattle producers to use a larger probe, ½" to ¾" wide, and one that is very sharp to cut through the corn. To prevent stalks or husks from sliding off the probe, cut at slower speeds than for hay bales. There are lots of nutrient variability in cornstalk bales, says Rick Rasby, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension beef specialist. "Of any residue, cornstalks have the greatest potential as feed for cow-calf operations." "Test for moisture, protein and energy in the form of total digestible nutrients (TDN), and test for nitrates and alfatoxins. Normally, nitrates not a major concern, but in extreme drought years, its best to test," Rasby says. With high feed costs, farmers may think about grinding corn stalks to utilize the whole plant. "At that point, you're not going to let cows select," Rasby says. "The smaller the screen you grind through, the less that the cows will sort—I suggest a 3" to 5" screen. When you are feeding the entire residue, a nutrient analysis as well as a nitrate test is really important."

Carrie Underwood, 'Blown Away' – Song Review
'Blown Away' is the signature song on Carrie Underwood's new album of the same name. It's the dangerous storm cloud that looms over the other tracks on a surprisingly dark project. Is this really the same woman who cut 'All-American Girl?' This is what critics are talking about when they hammer the importance of subtly reinventing one's self with each new album. The singer has built to this point over three previous albums.
Underwood says she enjoys playing a character in her most dramatic songs. Clearly the plot isn't one she can personally relate to, but she sells the story with the conviction and emotion of a hard-nosed victim of abuse.
"Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away / Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away / 'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday / Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away / Blown away," Underwood sings during the cathartic chorus as the sound of a tympani booms like thunder.
The pre-chorus is four lines of music as good as anything the 29-year-0ld has ever recorded. Josh Kear and Chris Tompkins wrote the song. They also wrote 'Before He Cheats.' When it's said and done both will be amongst the Top 5 Carrie Underwood songs of all time.
"There's not enough rain in Oklahoma / To wash the sins out of that house / There's not enough wind in Oklahoma / To rip the nails out of the past."
One misses just how dark this song is by allowing himself to get wrapped up in the pop-country production and orchestration (it's easy to imagine this as a crossover hit). Underwood is not only singing about alcoholism and abuse, she's telling a story of cold-blooded vengeance.
"She heard those sirens screaming out / Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch / She locked herself in the cellar / Listened to the screaming of the wind / Some people called it taking shelter / She called it sweet revenge," she sings during the second verse as a cold shiver crawls up our spine.
'Blown Away' will rub some the wrong way, but the best songs always do. Underwood needs to be congratulated for throwing safety to the winds of Oklahoma. This song is dangerous, but irresistible.

Breanne Christiansen, doctor of physical therapy at Kewanee Hospital, has been certified by LSVT Global, Inc., to provide treatment for individuals with movement disorders related to Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders using the LSVT BIG modalities.
Breanne Christiansen, doctor of physical therapy at Kewanee Hospital, has been certified by LSVT Global, Inc., to provide treatment for individuals with movement disorders related to Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders using the LSVT BIG modalities.
The BIG program is an adaptation for muscular disorders of the clinically proven Lee Silverman Voice Training (LSVT) LOUD method, which was developed in 1987 to improve voice and speech in individuals with Parkinson's disease.
Those principles that made LSVT LOUD an effective treatment for the speech motor system have now been successfully applied to the limb motor system.
Parkinson's disease is characterized by muscle rigidity, tremor, a slowing of physical movement (bradykinesia) and increasingly smaller movement (hypokinesia). Traditional therapy approaches include low to medium intensity exercises and are compensatory focused, with little expectation for lasting improvement.
LSVT BIG therapy is a research-based approach that includes repetitive, exaggerated movements to increase dopamine production in the brain and recalibrate muscle function.
Therapists model the structured movements while giving simple commands such as "do what I do" or "move bigger." This creates an automatic response in the patient's brain that results in larger, more normalized movements by the patient.
LSVT BIG™ protocols recommend incorporating therapy into treatment at the time of diagnosis, which is a huge paradigm shift for physicians and therapists with patients who don't exhibit traditional therapy needs.
LSVT BIG is a standardized treatment protocol, administered in 16 sessions over four weeks (four individual one-hour sessions per week). The protocol is both intensive and complex, with many repetitions of core movements that are used in daily living. This type of practice is necessary to optimize learning and carryover of better movement into everyday life.
The LSVT Programs have been developed and scientifically researched over the past 20 years with funding from the National Institutes of Health. Research on LSVT BIG has documented improved ratings on tests of motor functioning in people with Parkinson's Disease following treatment.
Improvements include faster walking with bigger steps, improved balance, and improved trunk rotation.
"The effects of this program are simply amazing," Christiansen said. "This treatment allows a patient with a progressive neurological disease to take charge of the disease and their life."
Christiansen is the only physical therapist within a 40 mile radius of Kewanee certified in this treatment approach. LSVT BIG therapy is covered by Medicare and most insurance companies when provided by a certified therapist.

"Compared to 20 years ago, there's simply no doubt that we're seeing more adult patients seeking help for new allergies," says Peter Socrates Creticos, MD, medical director of Baltimore's Johns Hopkins Asthma and Allergy Center. Among the most common types: pollen, dust, mites, pets, mold, and food -- all of which you can have reactions to for the first time as a grown-up.
When you're allergic, your body responds to something it sees as an allergen by first making immunoglobin E (IgE) antibodies, proteins the immune system produces to recognize and fight specific body "invaders." An allergic reaction is what happens when the IgE antibodies that are now in your body trigger the release of histamines, leukotrienes, and other chemicals. These substances cause all allergy symptoms, from the sneezing sparked by a mild pollen allergy to breathing difficulties from a severe food reaction.
Why can you suddenly become allergic to, say, cat dander? Because if you have a genetic predisposition to this allergy, it can take years of exposure before your body starts making IgE antibodies. Or these are triggered when moving exposes you to a new area's allergen (as in my situation). Viruses may contribute, too -- people are more liable to get an allergy after being sick. Then there's the "hygiene hypothesis": Smaller family size, improved sanitation, and personal cleanliness as well as frequent use of antibiotics limit exposure to infections from viruses and bacteria, resulting in fewer infections and prompting people's immune systems "to develop the tendency to overreact to routine things like dust mites or pollen," says Amin S. Kanani, MD, clinical instructor, division of Allergy and Clinical Immunology at the University of British Columbia, in Vancouver. In addition, air pollution may irritate airways, making us more allergy prone.
Whatever the causes, one thing is clear: Unlike children, who sometimes outgrow allergies, "if you develop one as an adult, chances are you will have it for the rest of your life," says Beth Corn, MD, chief of the Allergy/Asthma Clinic at New York City's Mount Sinai School of Medicine. No one knows why. We do know that left untreated, allergies can cause fatigue, sleep disturbances, and mental fogginess.
Repeated colds or sinus infections may put you among the 36 million Americans with hay fever (allergic rhinitis), an allergy to tree, grass, and weed pollen; the 10 million allergic to cat dander; or those allergic to dog or rodent dander, cockroach droppings, Asian ladybugs, or mold or dust mites (tiny organisms that live in the fibers of pillows, mattresses, and carpets). Symptoms include coughing, sneezing, itchy and/or watery eyes, runny nose, and scratchy throat. See an allergist if your primary doctor can't find the cause.
You may be advised to give up your dog or cat -- or vacuum and dust at least weekly to remove dander, dust mites, or pollen. The irony? These avoidance tactics may not be terribly effective. In one study, encasing bedding in impermeable "dust-mite-proof" covers didn't reduce symptoms in those allergic to mites. And British researchers found that five high-end vacuums with fancy HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filters were no better at cutting exposure to cat dander or mites than a 10-year-old vacuum.
Luckily, many effective medications are available. Allergy shots are another option -- combined with medication they may cure about one-third of patients and reduce or control symptoms for another third, according to Dr. Creticos. The rest of us are out of luck, and it can take more than a year to know which group you're in. Another drawback? The standard regimen is one or two shots a week for four to six months, then shots once or twice a month for three to five years. Due in five years: a vaccine for ragweed.
About 1 percent of adults are allergic to foods, especially peanuts, tree nuts (such as cashews, almonds, walnuts), eggs, shellfish, and other seafood. Allergies to milk, soy, wheat, and eggs are more common among kids. The most frequent drug allergies are to penicillin and other antibiotics. New evidence suggests that women may be more prone to food allergies than men are.
Symptoms can start within minutes to an hour of eating or swallowing the food or drug -- you may have trouble breathing or feel nauseated and experience diarrhea and/or vomiting. Itchy hives also start to surface in this short window of time -- during which you must immediately head for the emergency room and/or call 911. A food reaction can trigger anaphylaxis -- a life-threatening emergency that may begin with severe itching of eyes or face and progress within minutes to difficulty swallowing and breathing, mental confusion, dizziness and/or a quick drop in blood pressure. Treatment is an injection of adrenaline (epinephrine) to open airways and raise blood pressure. You may also need IV fluids, antihistamines, steroids, or other drugs.
There are no allergy shots or preventive medicines, but your doctor can prescribe an epinephrine self-injection pen (such as the EpiPen) -- a do-it-yourself shot to slow the onset of or prevent anaphylactic shock (still call 911 after using the pen). Since reactions are often worse the next time, always have the pen with you, keep an extra at home, and replace them each year. Also check the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network's Web site (www.foodallergy.org) for unexpectedly dangerous foods, like steak sauce made with anchovies. Have all drug allergies recorded in your medical records and wear a medical-alert bracelet or necklace.
Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, or Poison Sumac Approximately 85 percent of the population will develop an allergic reaction to urushiol, the chemical that causes the red, itchy rash you get from these plants, which often includes bumps and big, weepy blisters. If you think you've come into contact with it, either directly or indirectly (urushiol can hitchhike on garden tools, clothing, and pet fur), wash exposed skin with rubbing alcohol, then soap and water as soon as possible. If you're doomed to experience a rash, you'll know it 12 to 48 hours later. To control the itching and inflammation, try over-the-counter or prescription creams with cortisone. Wear gardening gloves and hike in long pants.
Insect Bite Allergy More than 2 million Americans are allergic to the stings or bites of bees, yellow jackets, hornets, wasps, or fire ants. If you're allergic, the stung area swells and spreads dramatically, usually in minutes; you may have itchiness or hives away from the sting -- all over your body or just in your eyes and nose. A severe reaction can lead quickly to anaphylaxis, so go to the ER or call 911 if you're having one. After one serious reaction, the next is likely to be more dangerous. Always carry an epinephrine pen. Consider allergy shots, which can be almost 100 percent effective.
As flowers start to bloom, so do all the symptoms of pollen allergies -- runny nose, itchy eyes, and constant sneezing. Pets, of course, are always around. Happily, though, a broad range of new medications can help with these allergies. "We now have medicines that are not only safe, effective and easier to use with less-frequent dosing, but they also don't make you sleepy, so you don't have to sacrifice alertness to get rid of your sniffles," says Asriani Chiu, MD, assistant professor of allergy medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin, in Milwaukee. Match the level of your symptoms with the most effective medicines.
You don't need tissues on hand 24-7; symptoms (which last as long as the offending plant allergens are in the air, usually two weeks or more) come and go, usually during spring or fall.
You may want to try...
Over-the-counter (OTC) loratadine, a nonsedating oral antihistamine (available as Claritin, Alavert, or as a generic). You can take it whenever symptoms start to kick up. Another option is a nasal spray called cromolyn sodium (NasalCrom): It helps prevent the release of chemicals that start allergic reactions. Doctors say it's most effective if used daily (up to four times a day) and it can be used along with loratadine, if necessary. For nasal congestion, try nasal spray decongestants with phenylephrine or oxymetolazone.
You should also know...
OTC remedies containing diphenhydramine (Benadryl), chlorpheniramine (Chlor-Trimeton) or clemastine (Tavist) are effective, but are likelier to cause drowsiness than loratadine. If you use nasal spray decongestants, doctors recommend you limit use to three to five days; longer use can cause what's known as "rebound congestion," abnormal swelling and enlargement of your nasal passageways.
You have sneezing, itching, and a runny nose and possibly congestion for weeks or months at a time.
You may want to try...
Desloratadine (Clarinex), fexofenadine (Allegra), or cetirizine HCl (Zyrtec) -- prescription antihistamines that you take on a daily basis as needed. Another option is the antihistamine nasal spray azelastine HCI (Astelin). If you have congestion along with your other symptoms a good choice is a combination nonsedating antihistamine/decongestant product (such as Claritin-D, Allegra-D, or Zyrtec-D) or a prescription nasal steroid, such as fluticasone propionate (Flonase) or triamcinolone acetonide (Nasacort AQ).
You should also know...
Oral decongestants can cause jumpiness and insomnia; they're not recommended for anyone with high blood pressure. Nasal steroids are most effective when used regularly, but sometimes cause cracking and minor bleeding in the nose; in rare cases long-term use may be associated with a slightly increased risk of diabetes, osteoporosis, and cataracts.
Your allergies interfere with your sleep as well as your daytime functioning.
You may want to try...
A nasal steroid combined with a nonsedating antihistamine (with or without a decongestant) to keep symptoms at bay. If one of your chief complaints is a constantly runny nose, ask your doctor about ipratropium inhalation (Atrovent), a prescription nasal spray that can slow the flow. In addition, you may want to try montelukast sodium (Singulair), a once-a-day medicine originally used for asthma that can help control nasal allergy symptoms, too.
You should also know...
A single injection of a large dose of steroids (100mg of prednisone) before the allergy season begins is very effective at relieving symptoms, but most doctors only turn to it as a last resort. That's because corticosteroids, especially when injected, can trigger a range of side effects, from throwing your menstrual cycle out of whack to harming your adrenal glands, which play a critical role in regulating blood pressure, heart rate, and hormone production.
You have itchy or watery eyes, blurred vision, swollen eyelids, and/or redness in the white of the eye. Eye indications are the top indoor/outdoor allergy symptoms in about 4 percent of sufferers. A leading culprit? Allergic conjunctivitis, irritation of the conjunctiva (the membrane covering the white part of the eye).
You may want to try...
OTC eyedrops that contain ketotifen fumarate (Zaditor) or prescription eyedrops with cromolyn sodium (Opticrom or Crolom) or olopatadine hydrochloride (Patanol) all contain mast-cell stabilizers, agents that prevent the release of chemicals that cause inflammation.
You should also know...
Most allergy eyedrops cause stinging or burning when you first put them in (although chilling them in the fridge first can reduce this). OTC eyedrops that contain decongestants such as oxymetazoline (Visine LR) take the redness away (as advertised) by shrinking the blood vessels in the eye, but they don't help a lot with itching. Also, if you use them for more than a week, they can actually make your redness worse.

Also, the killer of K1 in Watanagashi was the true Mion, since Shion and her swapped in the ceremony, so the roles we see are their original roles so I can say in red Shion had nothing to do with the killings, the killer,as seen in Watanagashi, was Mion, but no that Mion, it was the original

Second, I don't see why you are having such a hard time with "misinterperation". Sure, disguises might be limited by rule #10, but misinterperation is not.
Third, you can't even name "true" Mion in Watanagashi-hen. Their past is only shown in Meakashi-hen, and that's why I used that analogy. Just becuase you see Mion stabbed Keiichi, doesn't mean Mion really stabbed keiichi. This is the same argument of "just becuase Eva shot Battler, doesn't mean Eva really shot Battler." (as argued by the "Meta-Battler resigning results in real life battler being able to see fantasy scenes theory") Again, I was using that as an analogy to show that "just becuase we see two entities, doesn't mean there's really two entities." (I really want to drop this point becuase it's not related, and probably a bad analogy to use in the first place)
Lastly, try not to use red text unless you are quoting existing red text.

About how reliable is Erika's point of view... I've just noticed that Battler actually attempted to claim that the gold that this piece battle found with Erika was merely a fantasy, and then had that negated with red.
So... Battler really doesn't seem to take the idea that Erika's point of view is an infallible truth. Considering that, should everyone really assume that she really replaced episode 1-4 Battler just because she's a "detective"? I don't think ep 1-4 Battler even was described like that at any point previously.

And no, Erika really take a role that doesn't influence Beato's game, therefore, it should not affect Battler's role from ep1-4.
This is the reason why Ep5 isn't a Ep1 with an extra character, but something totally different.

People are saying that there couldn't be any fantasy elements in scenes with Erika, even if the scenes aren't from her perspective, due to the way Piece Battler's presence worked in previous episodes.
Didn't Battler ask if the gold was real or just a fake/fantasy? If Erika's presence stopped every fantasy element, that question wouldn't have been necessary.

He doubted about the gold, since only Eva and Rosa found it, so since only 2 persons claimed it, it isn't at 100% the truth and can be the doing of the Fantasy Side.
However, he clearly put himself between quote, saying he opened the cat box.
And Lambda just confirmed.
At this point, Battler was still thinking his perspective was reliable enough, even though he was certain that the Kinzo he saw was definitely something wrong.

The fact of the matter is that Knox's rules were only introduced in Ep5 so they are not exactly confirmed to be retroactively applicable to 1-4. Even then unlike Erika's confirmation in red as the detective in Ep5, we have no guarantee Battler is playing the same role in Ep1-4.

Furthermore, you don't need to make accusation to start figuring about the truth, and by this extension, taking the role of the detective. Piece Battler was almost the only one who was actually trying to figure what was going on in all episodes, even if he couldn't have the same privilege as Erika.

Marathoning through this thread is about as bad as marathoning the series itself!
Though experience with a certain 30,000 page thread of Asuki has steeled me for this battle.
I have a few points to raise, but I need to clarify something first, in case I missed it: Is present time being 1986 ever mentioned in red?
A little off-topic, but a funny thought:
Since the definition of a species is whether one can reproduce with another, the most screw-up (lol) way to test if witches are not human would be for Battler and Beato/Vigil/Chibeat/whoever else you like to get it on in between board games, and see if the witches get pregnant. They got all infinity to wait for result anyway. No contraceptives or measures against barrier to insemination must be undertaken during this mini-game.

I vaugely remember Beatrice or someone proclaiming in red or otherwise stating (reliably, not as a trick or anything) that the game takes place during those 2 days in 1986 and ends after the 5th of October. If you're getting this idea from a certian other game, I don't see how it would work anyways since everyone dies...
Also becuase I couldn't put this in the anime discussion threads (only an EP4 spoiler, but has nothing to do with the current discussion)

I personally thinks it was definitely Rosa.
The thing is that Rosa is unable to actually control her emotions and always blame OTHERS instead herself or the right person.
Of course, there is nothing that can confirm if everything shown in Ep4 is 100% trustworthy, but if we start the premises of this, and how Rosa was shown "trigger happy" in all Episodes, it is very likely that Rosa was really unable to love Maria and blamed her for being unable to get happiness.

Rosa demonstrates the clinical traits of bipolar syndrome though... so I'm not so sure if I could blame her completely just yet...
On Present Time in Red: If it is mentioned like that, then it might just only refer to the game having occurred in 1986, but not the meta-world, which doesn't strangle my little theory. But I don't recall any red regarding present time though, so... does anyone else have a clue?
Sorry, just want to get my facts right before I shoot my mouth off something silly.

Difference between revisions of "Newport Beach"
Revision as of 20:20, 18 January 2013
Newport Beach [15] is a city famous for its lavish lifestyle and beautiful surroundings. Television enthusiasts will recognize the resemblance to the show The O.C., and not just by virtue of its location in Orange County, California. The American city has its share of "beautiful people" often with wealth to spare. Yet it's very possible to enjoy life in Newport Beach amongst the millionaires on a low, low budget. The area code for all of Newport Beach is 949.
Visitor Information
Visit Newport Beach, [16] is the City of Newport Beach's official Destination Marketing organization. Phone: 1-800-94-COAST. Find information on things to do, events, hotels, restaurants, beaches and the surf report. View an Official Newport Beach Visitor Guide online, order one, or pick one up at the Visitor Center, located at 1200 Newport Center Drive.
Get in
By plane
By rail
Metrolink and Amtrak serve Santa Ana, Tustin (Metrolink only), and Irvine. A taxi would probably be the most convenient option. Local OCTA bus routes service Amtrak/Metrolink stations at certain times. Consult the OCTA website [17] for more information.
By car
Take CA Highway 1 or the I-405 freeway to the 55 or 73 freeway south. The former will take you to West Newport and the latter to the east side of the Newport Bay.
Get around
True to its name, any visit to Newport Beach is incomplete without a trip to the beach. The city is nestled on the Pacific Ocean and is a favorite amongst surfers. The Wedge, at the end of the Balboa Peninsula, is famed for its challenging surf, but Newport's miles of wide beaches offer plenty of room for everyone, except on the busiest summer weekends. There is a concrete boardwalk running along the beach from the east of the Balboa pier to west of the Newport pier.

MetroPCS Due to Dial Up the Details on T-Mobile Deal
It's been a quiet couple of weeks for telecom junkies after a flurry of activity last month. But another fix is coming, as soon as this week.
MetroPCS is expected to file a proxy on its sale to Deutsche Telekom AG's T-Mobile USA to the Securities and Exchange Commission in coming days, with a Monday deadline.
The document should include the financial projections of the combined company as well as background about the deal, including MetroPCS's interactions with other companies prior to the agreement.
The background section "includes everything that we've been working on for the last year and a half," MetroPCS's Chief Financial Officer Braxton Carter said last week at an investor conference. "I think it will be a fascinating read for a lot of people."
Don't expect the company to name names on other possible partners. (More typical are references to the likes of "company A, company B.") But a guessing game could ensue on who is behind various references.
MetroPCS and T-Mobile announced their tie-up on Oct. 3. Less than two weeks later, Sprint-Nextel Corp. cut a deal to sell a 70% stake to Japan's Softbank Corp. for $20 billion. The move will shore up Sprint's balance sheet so it can make more deals, which makes the proxy details all the more interesting.

After impressing in their previous matches, the Kings face a stern test against the seven-times champions in Christchurch on Saturday.
The Crusaders suffered defeats, to the Blues and Hurricanes in the opening rounds but bounced back in style with an impressive 41-19 win over the Blues last weekend.
That result should instill fear in the Kings who have punched above their weight, and performed admirably, since the start of the tournament.
In that win against the Bulls, the Crusaders gave a superb allround display and dominated most facets of play. If they put in a similar showing in this encounter it could be a nightmare outing for the tournament newbies.
Number eight Kieran Read has done a superb job as stand-in skipper for Richie McCaw who is on an extended break. Read has been the Crusaders' standout player and the added responsibility of leadership has not had a negative affect on his game.
The Kings were controversially included, at the expense of the Lions, in this year's competition. And despite initial fears that they would be out of their depth, the Port Elizabeth-based franchise has been competitive in all their fixtures to date.
They claimed a morale-boosting 22-10 win over the Western Force in their season opener before suffering 21-12 and 35-24 losses to the Sharks and Chiefs respectively.
That win over the Force was an historical one as they became the first new Super Rugby franchise added to the competition to win their opening game.
However, all those games were played in front of their fervent supporters, in Port Elizabeth, and they face a daunting task in front of the Christchurch faithful this weekend.
Because of injury to key players, the Kings will be led by their fourth skipper in as many matches when prop Schalk Ferreira takes over the reins from Steven Sykes, who is sidelined with concussion. That, however, is the least of their worries.
They are under investigation by SARU for using more than the permitted two foreign players, during last weekend's 35-24 loss to the Chiefs.
Adding to that, Leonardi and Virgile Lacombe were sent home from their Australasian tour as the Kings arrived in New Zealand with four foreign players in their 26-man tour squad – two more than SARU's quota for a 30-man Super Rugby squad.
It remains to be seen how these off-field happenings will affect the Kings' performance in this match.
Prediction:The Kings will have to dig deep and show plenty of character to repeat their earlier performances. But this game is being played in Christchurch and not Port Elizabeth so don't expect any miracles. The Crusaders will dominate and win by 30 points.
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg. 14 Tom Marshall, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Ryan Crotty, 11 Johnny McNicholl, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Willi Heinz, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Samuel Whitelock, 4 Luke Romano, 3 Owen Franks 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Wyatt Crockett.
Replacements: 16 Codie Taylor, 17 Joe Moody, 18 Dominic Bird, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Andy Ellis, 21 Tyler Bleyendaal, 22 Zac Guildford.
Kings: 15 George Whitehead, 14 Sergeal Petersen, 13 Ronnie Cooke, 12 Hadleigh Parkes, 11 Marcello Sampson, 10 Demetri Catrakilis, 9 Shaun Venter, 8 Jacques Engelbrecht, 7 Wimpie van der Walt, 6 Cornell du Preez, 5 David Bulbring, 4 Daniel Adongo, 3 Kevin Buys, 2 Bandise Maku, 1 Schalk Ferreira (c).
Replacements: 16 Edgar Marutlulle, 17 Jaco Engels, 18 Rynier Bernardo, 19 Devin Oosthuizen, 20 Nicolas Vergallo, 21 Waylon Murray, 22 Elric van Vuuren.

BARRINGTON — Calef's Country Store is inviting the local community to welcome the holiday season this Friday while exploring what local businesses have to offer.
The 12th annual soiree is taking place from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the center of town, on Franklin Pierce Highway near the intersection with Calef Highway.
A crossing guard will be on hand to help pedestrians cross the road as they visit the five participating businesses for the event — the Christmas Dove, the Village Barn, Edward Jones, Elfmade, and Calef's Country Store.
"It's like an open house night in Barrington," said Dave Ranson, finance adviser at Edward Jones and member of the board of directors for the Barrington Chamber of Commerce. "It's our way of kind of welcoming the Christmas season for the town."
As part of the soiree, visitors will be given "passports" that they can get stamped at each business they visit Friday evening. Those who visit all five businesses can enter a raffle, with a chance to win 15 prizes — each participating business is contributing three items toward the raffle.
At 6 p.m., Barrington Elementary School students will sing Christmas carols by the lit tree in front of the Village Barn.
Joel Sherburne, of Calef's Country Store, said the soiree started 12 years ago as a way of letting local residents know what local businesses in Barrington have to offer.
Over the years, the festive annual event has gotten better and better, said Sherburne.
"That night it's mobbed in here," he said during an interview at Calef's Country Store. "Sales aren't too shabby that night."
Above Calef's Country Store, Edward Jones will be offering games that have drawn serious competitiveness in past years, said Ranson.
In one game, participants have to guess the total value of coins in a jar. In another game, participants guess what the Dow Jones industrial average will be by the end of 2012.
"It's very competitive," said Ranson. "I can't even explain to you how seriously people take that."
The Barrington library and historical society will also have displays in the Edward Jones conference room on Friday.
Calef's Country Store will also be collecting nonperishable food items and monetary donations for the Barrington Food Pantry during the soiree.

O Rock, All Ye Faithful is a rock rendition of the Christmas carol classic, O Come, All Ye Faithful. Utilizing rock instruments like distorted and overdriven guitars, huge drums, and slammin' bass, along with classical instrumentation, such as a choir, orchestra chimes (tubular bells), and other orchestral percussion. It's a great combination that gives that Christmassy feel, while adding lot of energy to your project. Thanks for listening!

Seeds were originally used in their ground form as seasonings or herbal flavorings for foods. Celery, cumin, mustard, cardamom, and coriander seeds, as well as many others, are still used in this way. But seeds are also very concentrated food. They are the initial source of the nutrition for the new plant.
The three main seeds discussed here?pumpkin, sesame, and sunflower?are high-protein foods, with more protein than the grains. Pumpkin seeds, for example, are more than 30 percent protein. High in vitamin E, these seeds are also a good source of fat, containing more than half by weight. Luckily, most (more than 80 percent) of that is polyunsaturated fats, our essential fatty acids, and oil-soluble vitamins A, D, and E. So seeds can be rather high in calories, which is good for those few who are attempting to gain weight. There are some B vitamins in seeds, varying depending on the seed. They are rich in minerals; iron and zinc are plentiful. The amount of magnesium is good, especially in pumpkin seeds. Most seeds are a great source of copper. Calcium and potassium levels are also fairly good, yet there is very little sodium. Phosphorus levels are high, especially compared to calcium, thus an excess of seed intake can throw off this important balance. Iodine is usually present in most seeds as well.
Seeds can be eaten raw after shelling and bought fresh either in shells or unshelled. They are a good protein addition to salads, can be cooked into grain or vegetable dishes, or can be blended to make a low-sodium protein sprinkle for food dishes. Unhulled seeds have a better shelf life than the hulled seeds, which should be kept refrigerated. Unhulled seeds can be stored in a cool, dry place. All seeds can be sprouted to make a highly nutritious seed-vegetable (green) combination. Sunflower and alfalfa are common and can be used in salads or sandwiches.
Most commonly, seeds are used to make oils. Sunflower, safflower, and sesame are very good ones among the seed oils. These can be used in cooking (sunflower is the most stable for storage and cooking) or to make margarines, but they are best used fresh on foods such as salads and cooked grains or vegetables. Usually, cold-processed oils (not heat-refined) give good nourishment, and using them uncooked is best.

Tombstone Tuesday - Unknown
I don't have too many pictures of tombstones as yet, but I had to post this one. This is a picture of my daughter when she was 2 years old. It was taken at the Abbey in Kelso, Scotland when we were over there for my sister's wedding. I have always had a fascination for old cemeteries, especially those attached to a church. The grave in this picture had sunk into the ground and my daughter decided to jump right in. I don't think she knew what she was "getting into"!

La Crosse, Wis. - The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse football team earned a 28-21 victory over UW-Stevens Point Saturday afternoon at Roger Harring Stadium at Veterans Memorial Field Sports Complex. The Eagles improve to 2-5 overall and 2-2 in the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) with their second straight win overall. The Pointers, receiving votes on this week's D3football.com and American Football Coaches Association Top-25 Poll, falls to 4-3 overall and 2-2 in the conference. It is UW-L's third straight win over UW-Stevens Point.
UW-Stevnes Point got the scoreboard first on the first possession of the game. UW-L was forced to punt from its own 29-yard line, but the Pointers' Mike Longmeyer blocked Matt Van Druten's punt and Brodie Johnson returned the ball 35-yards for a touchdown with 11:53 left in the opening quarter.
UW-L then scored 28 straight points to lead 28-7 at halftime. The Eagles tied the contest at 7-7 with 5:44 remaining in the first quarter on Jude Williams' 30-yard touchdown run. UW-L went three plays and 45 yards in 1:11. The drive was set-up by Gavin Marquart's 39-yard punt return.
The Pointes' Adam Vesterfelt then fumbled on the next possession of the game with the Eagles' Nick Berg recovery the ball at the UW-Stevens Point 34-yard line. One play later, Trent Cummings hit Tommy Young with a 34-yard touchdown pass with 5:22 left in the opening quarter to give UW-L a 14-7 lead.
Cummings threw his second touchdown of the quarter with 4:09 left in the second quarter as he connected with Scott Shewmon on a seven-yard pass. The touchdown pass came on the first play after the Eagles' place-kicker Matt Van Druten ran six-yards for a first down on a 30-yard fake field goal attempt. UW-L went 38 yards in six plays and 2:29 to take a 21-7 advantage.
UW-Stevens Point quarterback Mitch Beau was intercepted by UW-L's Jon Becker on the Pointers' next possession with Becker returning it to the UW-Stevens Point 40-yard line. Cummings hit Tony Favre with a 32-yard touchdown pass with 1:11 left in the first half for a 28-7 lead. UW-L went 40 yards in three plays and :38.
The Pointers took the second half kickoff and cut their deficit to 28-14 as Beau scored on a seven-yard run with 9:19 left in the third quarter. UW-Stevens Point went 70 yards in 12 plays and 5:41.
After UW-L went three-and-out on its next possession, UW-Stevens Point drove 73 yards in 21 plays and 8:58, but Jesse Vervelde missed a 23-yard field goal attempt to keep it 28-14. UW-L was forced to punt on its next possession and UW-Stevens Point used four plays to go 43 yards in :42 as Beau threw an eight-yard touchdown pass to Matt Sosinsky to cut the lead to 28-21 with 11:34 left in the game.
The Eagles earned their first first down of the second half on their next drive, but were forced to punt. Beau was intercepted by UW-L's Austin Feuerhelm at the UW-Stevens Point 38-yard line. Cumming was then intercepted by the Pointers' Jake Luedtke four plays latter.
The teams traded punts on the next two possessions with UW-Stevens Point taking over at its own 12-yard line with 2:06 remaining. Beau completed four of his first five passes on the drive, taking the ball to the UW-Stevens Point 44-yard line. The Pointers later drove to the Eagles' 23-yard line. Beau threw a six-yard completion to Luke Neubauer to UW-L 17-yard line, but UW-Stevens Point was forced to call its last time out with :13 remaining.
Beau threw two incompletions, setting up fourth-down with just over two seconds left. Beau connected with Neubauer down to the UW-L two-yard line, but he was stopped on the play by the Eagles' Brett Benson. Neubauer was called for an illegal forward pass on the play, which was declined by UW-L as the game ended.
UW-L finished with 260 yards of offense, including 77 rushing and 183 passing. Williams had 44 yards rushing on five attempts (8.8 average) while Ben Hertrampf finished with 28 yards on 15 carries. Cummings was 15-of-26 passing for 183 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. He was sacked three times.
Favre caught four passes for 52 yards and one touchdown while Alex Lepp had three receptions for 25 yards.
The Eagles were three-of-14 on third-down.
UW-Stevens Point totaled 440 yards Saturday, including 162 rushing and 278 passing. DeJuan Wright finished with 61 yards rushing on 12 attempts while Vesterfelt had 60 yards on 15 carries. Beau finished 30-of-52 passing for 278 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. He was sacked twice.
Neubauer had eight catches for 81 yards while Sosinsky finished with five receptions for 61 yards and a touchdown.
The Pointers were 10-of-18 on third-down and won the time of possession, 35:27 to 24:33.
Shane Rockweiler led UW-L with 16 tackles, including 14 unassisted. He also recorded one forced fumble and one pass break-up. Jake Perner had 10 tackles (six unassisted) with one pass break-up while Feuerhelm finished with nine tackles (six unassisted), one interception and one forced fumble. Jordan Pendergast and Nick Berg each had a quarterback sack.
Cody Seibel led UW-Stevens Point with 12 tackles, including 10 unassisted. He had 2.5 tackles for loss. Mitch Chester also had 2.5 tackles for loss.
UW-L returns to action Saturday, November 2 hosting UW-River Falls at 1 p.m.

Louis Vuitton Sues Darfur Fundraiser; Seems Unclear On The Concept Of Trademark
from the such-fashionable-bullies dept
While, there may be some difference due to the specifics of trademark law in Europe, it's hard to see how this is not overreaching. This is an entirely non-commercial venture. All of the profits are given to charity. The design has some differences from the Louis Vuitton bag, and hardly seems likely to specifically damage the Louis Vuitton brand (the lawsuit will take care of that). The t-shirts are clearly not competing with Louis Vuitton and there's little reason to have anyone think that Louis Vuitton somehow "endorsed" this effort. Furthermore, posting the cease-and-desist or even mentioning the name Louis Vuitton simply should not be infringing activities. I don't know if Europe has the equivalent of the "moron in a hurry" trademark test, but LV gets the "moron in a hurry" award for the week.

Nashville, Tenn. - After a loss to Missouri snapped their three-game win-streak, the Tennessee State Tigers will look to rebound with a win against Lemoyne-Owen at home on Dec. 16 at 4 p.m.
TSU was outrebounded at Missouri by 25 boards, but the rebounding has not been a problem for the Tigers prior to that. The squad ranks third in the OVC with 134 offensive rebounds (13.4 per game) and its 72.1 percent defensive rebound percentage puts the team second in the conference.
Adding to the team's stout interior defense has been Tennessee State's uncanny ability to block shots. Big Blue has blocked 21 shot attempts during the last four contests, raising the team to third place in the conference with 4.3 blocks per game. TSU currently has three players who rank in the top ten of the OVC's individual swat list in M.J. Rhett (1.1 per game), Michael Green (1.0 per game) and Robert Covington (0.9 per game).
"We have been focusing a lot on helping out and team defense," head coach Travis Williams said. "We have athletic guys that are more than able to go up and block a shot."
The Tigers will need to continue to play strong defensively as the Magicians have four players who average in double-figures, and Edwin Shorter is just 0.2 points per game shy of giving the team five.
"The coaching staff challenges each player and stresses to them that they have a job to do. Each guy on the team must do their part, contest every shot and make the opponent uncomfortable," Williams said.
Another key for TSU will be hanging on to the basketball. Tennessee State currently averages 15.5 turnovers per game, but the Magicians force 19 per game and lead the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference with a +5.5 turnover margin.
"After seeing the practice that we have had this week, I think that we will do a good job of valuing the ball and playing smart," Williams said.
Faith and Family night tips off at 4 p.m. and fans can get a ticket half off by bringing a church bulletin. For those that can't attend, the game will be streamed on the OVC Digital Network.

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned January 25, 2019.
IPv6 with Tunnel Broker Configuration Example
From DocWiki
Common info
Tunnel brokers are something that you can put into the "tunnel destination" command on your config, and have the IPv6 working.
Do not try to split the /64 that they give originally - it most probably would not work! They give out the /48s for the purpose of putting the real devices on them.
The basic config using IOS is the same for both tunnelbrokers, here it is (taken from SixXS FAQ and modified to add the basic firewalling part):
ipv6 unicast-routing ipv6 cef ipv6 inspect name V6-INSPECT tcp ipv6 inspect name V6-INSPECT udp ipv6 inspect name V6-INSPECT ftp ipv6 inspect name V6-INSPECT icmp ! interface tunnel0 description IPv6 uplink to SixXS / HE no ip address ipv6 enable ipv6 nd suppress-ra (<12.4) ipv6 nd ra suppress (>=12.4) ipv6 address [Your IPv6 Endpoint]/[Prefix Length] ipv6 mtu 1280 (or other MTU value, depending on what you configured the tunnel to) tunnel source [Your IPv4 Endpoint or 'dialer' interface] tunnel destination [PoP IPv4 Endpoint] tunnel mode ipv6ip ipv6 traffic-filter V6-FILTER in ipv6 inspect V6-INSPECT out ipv6 virtual-reassembly ! ipv6 route 2000::/3 [PoP IPv6 Endpoint] ! ! Some folks filter some ICMPs here. ipv6 access-list V6-FILTER permit icmp any any deny ipv6 any any log !
For SixXS, the IOS should work either with "static" or "heartbeat" type tunnels. They have a funny point scheme, whereby they take away your points for changing the tunnel type - so in the end you might not have enough. If you are 100% sure you have the fixed IPv4 address - then you can pick "static" when requesting. Else - take the "heartbeat" one - you can use it with either static or dynamic IPv4 endpoint. The config is as per above.
The tricky part is who is going to send the "heartbeat" described in the draft
Luckily they publish a sample shell script that does this, albeit it has a little bug ("-c" in the argument of netcat) that cost me 30 points in debugging mistakes before I figured it out :-)
Here's a bug free version:
#! /bin/sh # written by Oliver Walter <firstname.lastname@example.com> localv6="$1" password="$2" remotev4="$3" remotev6="$4" while [ 1 ] do hb="HEARTBEAT TUNNEL `echo -n $localv6|cut -d '/' -f 1` sender `date +%s`" echo -n "$hb `echo -n $hb $password|md5sum|cut -d ' ' -f 1`"|netcat -w 1 -u $remotev4 3740 ping6 -s 8 -c 1 -q $remotev6 >/dev/null 2>&1 & sleep 60 done
As they point at the Heartbeat page - your clock has to be NTP-synced, as they have pretty stringent requirements for it, and will drop the heartbeat packets otherwise.
(Still open question: where to find the heartbeat password - it is not the same as your login. I'll put something here if I hear from the SixXS folks). Or if you find it - edit it here in-place.
Once you start the heartbeat, your tunnel will automagically come up.
Hurricane Electric
Same setup as on the SixXS for the IOS 'forwarding' part. Their way to update your endpoint is different:
Please use the format "https ://ipv4.tunnelbroker.net/ipv4_end.php?ipv4b=$IPV4ADDR&pass=$MD5PASS&user_id=$USERID&tunnel_id=$GTUNID" Where: $IPV4ADDR = The new IPv4 Endpoint (AUTO to use the requesting client's IP address) $MD5PASS = The MD5 Hash of your password $USERID = The UserID from the main page of the tunnelbroker (not your username) $GTUNID = The Global Tunnel ID from the tunnel_details page
NB: I have added the space after 'https' to prevent the auto-linkage of the nonsensical URL by the wiki. You obviously should not have the space. Also, HTTP (not "HTTPS") seems to work for now too.
Basically, if you use "AUTO" in place of IPv4 address (and you are requesting from behind your router - so your source IPv4 address will be the same as the one assigned to you) - then to update the address, you just need to retrieve a statically computed URL, specific to your tunnel. Obviously do this only when the address changes.
I suspect for this the dynamic DNS support in IOS should work pretty well - but did not test it since I have not enough memory on my home box to use the software that supports the dynamic DNS.

Let's not fight over trashcans
Oh my goodness. Once again we are fighting over the tiniest things. I've given up on trying to change the feud overall, but I would like to say that I think we ought to seriously reconsider our stand on the Big Belly trash cans.
I absolutely love our aesthetics. It is what makes Chestnut Hill a charming and livable place, but I also love planet earth and want to keep her around for our children and others to come. It's time to get a little more progressive here in terms of helping the earth be a cleaner and less throw-away world.
I commend Amy Edelman and her team for going gung-ho on green in a town that has not generally grabbed a hold of progressive measures. But she can't do it alone. We need to all decide now – do we want beautiful old-fashioned trash cans (often with garbage spilling out of them) or can we go ahead and conserve some trash for the future.
Handling the handle issue – well that gave me quite a chuckle. What will we think of next! I imagine we each touch hundreds of pieces of public property every single day. We don't seem too worried about that. I was just in the bank the other day and had to open the door with my own naked hand. So far I've been fine – no rash, no disease, nothing. You get my point.
Of course, it's Chestnut Hill, so I don't expect to change every mind, maybe not even many, but if enough of us can vie for our ecological future, I for one will give a big cheer for Chestnut Hill. Maybe one day we'll get bored with the fight!

College expansion wins a convert
I could not help but laugh when I saw the letter of Ed Feldman as usual telling Chestnut Hillers what to do with their community and attacking the Chestnut Hill Community Association for allowing some people outside the borders of Chestnut Hill to become CHCA members. Am I the only one who noticed the irony of the word written under Ed Feldman's name – "Roxborough?"
In other words, it's OK for him to live outside of Chestnut Hill and disrupt CHCA meetings and attack everything that Chestnut Hill stands for, but it's not alright for CHCA to have members living in Wyndmoor, Erdenheim, Lafayette Hill, Mt. Airy, etc.
The worst thing the Chestnut Hill College expansion opponents can have is Ed Feldman on their side. If they are smart, they will send him on a one-way trip to the Arctic Circle. Ed Feldman has made it clear time and time again that he could not care less about anyone in Chestnut Hill. He is a loudmouth, blowhard egomaniac who has admitted in articles in the Local that he will do anything to call attention to his own disruptive, childish antics.
If the CHCA said that two and two are four, he'd insist it was five. I actually was not sure how I stood on this issue, although I think the Local has done a very fair job of presenting both sides. Now that I have heard from Roxborough's circus clown, however, I have to believe that the Chestnut Hill College expansion must be justified.

CHCA remains loyal to residents
I welcome Mrs. [Arabella] Pope's letter and Dr. [George] Spaeth's Op/Ed published last week. Nearby neighbors should express their concerns, as should our whole community. We through that committee, a coalition of neighborhood organizations, are working hard with the college to resolve those remaining concerns.
I must, however, take issue with Mrs. Pope in that nobody is accusing the nearby neighbors of whining, of being short-sighted NIMBYites, or of being bullies. There are simply still some areas of disagreement among that nine-member committee. I should emphasize that the majority of members – seven of the nine – in agreement include not only CHCA but also the Historical Society, the Friends of the Wissahickon, and the CHBA.
With most of what Dr. Spaeth writes, I completely agree. But, I must respectfully take strong issue with his suggestion that CHCA has deteriorated into a community organization somehow captive of institutional and business interests. Not true! Will never be true! The CHCA remains a grassroots community organization that represents and serves primarily the residents – all the residents, of Chestnut Hill.
Zoning/development issues are commonly the most contentious in any community. The CHCA must decide those questions. When it does, it must consider what is good for the whole community, giving special weight to the real interests of nearby neighbors.
Inevitably some nearby neighbors will disagree with those decisions. We must consider what our highly professional volunteer committees recommend, do what is right for all, and take our hits from those who would exploit any such disagreements and move on to resolve issues – including this largest one of all. In all things at all times, we are loyal to all the residents of Chestnut Hill and to no one else.

School officials like Arab sheiks
Like every other person who cares about public education, I am horrified by the hundreds of millions of dollars being cut in Gov. Corbett's budget to public schools in Philadelphia, hundreds of teachers being laid off, etc. But one thing I find really disturbing is that with all of those draconian cuts, not one six-figure job in Ackerman's administration building has been cut, and not one of those hundreds of positions (in my opinion, most of them worthless) has to pay so much as one penny more for health insurance or towards their ultra-generous retirement funds, all of which come out of our pockets.
So can someone tell me why the working class and middle class taxpayers of Philadelphia should pay 10 percent more of our already-too- high real estate taxes, which Mayor Nutter wants us to do, as long as all of those bloated, overpaid head-in-the-sand alleged school district administrators continue to live like Arab sheiks in their ivory tower at our expense?

The Platinum Grille discovered
I recently experienced an extraordinary neighborhood restaurant, the Platinum Grille! I have been a resident of Chestnut Hill for six years and recently discovered this restaurant in the Market Square Shopping Center, a five minute walk from my house. I was surprised to come across this quaint looking establishment as I was on my way to get an MRI.
Who knew that you could get an MRI in Chestnut Hill's Market Square Shopping Center and not have to go to the hospital? I discovered a dentist's office, Christian bookstore, a beauty supply store, two banks, a drug store and fitness center all in one location.
Who knew that all these conveniences were located in the back yards of Chestnut Hillers? If I didn't know these places existed, I wondered if others didn't know; so I figured it was my responsibility to help pass the information around.
Platinum Grille has excellent food, reasonable prices, awesome drinks and plenty of parking for those who prefer not to walk the short distance from their homes and local shops. It's a great place to dine, meet for drinks and throw a party!

Solange's new 7-track EP is a fine collection of smooth songs that will continue to help the singer find her spot in the music world outside of sister Beyonce's immense shadow.
The EP is the follow-up to 2008's "Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams," a wonderfully crafted retro-soul adventure. Solange continues with that sound on "True," collaborating with British musician Devonte Hynes, who has also worked with The Chemical Brothers and Diana Vickers.
The album finds the 26-year-old singing about a relationship that hasn't really worked out. The lead single and opening track, "Losing You," kicks off things terrifically with its odd (but amazing) beat and Solange's dreamy vocals. Each song flows easily into the next, making the EP easy listening and addictive.
At times, Solange is a vocal tease: She starts songs lightly and often adds enjoyable riffs near the end of the tracks. That's especially on "Lovers In the Parking Lot," and it's a voice worth listening to.

Off to Tuscany!
Tuscan Sun, Tuscan Year, Tuscan Hills, Tuscan Childhood ... Tuscany is hot these days, featured in dozens of new books, drawing attention as a travel destination, for its food, and of course for its wealth of world-class wines. Tuscany is drawing so much attention that one wonders why it took so many people so long to "discover" this historic Italian region with its deep cultural roots that go back to medieval times and beyond.
It's one of my favorite places for wine touring, and I'm both honored and delighted to have been invited as the only U.S. wine judge at the "VII Selezione dei Vini di Toscana" ("7th Annual Selection of Tuscan Wines") at the Enoteca Italiana in Siena this weekend.
A broad range of Tuscan wines will be entered in the competition, which operates under the auspices of the Italian Ministry of Agricultural Policy and is organized by the Region of Tuscany in partnership with the Enoteca Italiana of Siena, the National Italian Winemakers Association and the Italian Trade Commission. Judges are drawn from an international panel of wine journalists and sommeliers with experience in similar national-level competitions.
I hope to be able to publish photos and daily reports from Siena, assuming a good Internet connection, but in any case, I'll bring back a full report when regular Wine Advisor publication resumes next week.
For today, let's set the scene with a quick-reference list of some of the leading Tuscan wine types. I expect the judging will be organized along similar lines:
* Chianti - The ancient Tuscan hills between Florence and Siena have been producing Chianti, to the delight of wine lovers, for 700 years or more. It's based primarily on the Sangiovese red grape with a blend of other varieties, including, traditionally, a bit of white grape juice to add grace notes, a custom that some modern producers no longer follow. Chianti Classico is made from grapes grown in the desirable central part of the region, and wines labeled "Riserva" are aged in oak for a prescribed time before bottling.
* Super Tuscans - A generation ago, some Chianti producers, eager to experiment with grape blends and barrel aging not permitted under the strict regional wine laws, began making Chianti-style wines with such offbeat variations as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot in the blend and small French oak barrels. Initially they chose the generic "Vino da Tavola" ("table wine") designation previously reserved for modest everyday wines. More recently, Italian wine law has become more flexible, opening up regional Indicazione Geographica Tipica (IGT) designations for "non-traditional" wines. Most Super Tuscans are now labeled Toscana IGT. Some of them command top critical ratings and price, although many of them are made in a modern "international" style that attracts high critical ratings and prices but that those who admire traditional European wine styles find controversial at best.
* Brunello di Montalcino - Another ancient and highly regarded wine, grown only around the village of Montalcino south of Siena, Brunello is made from a specific clone of Sangiovese. It's not unlike a fine, high-end Chianti in style; ageworthy and collectible, it ranks among Italy's top wines and is certainly one of my favorites ... when I can afford it. Bargain hunters may want to look for Rosso di Montalcino, usually made from younger grapes and less oak exposure to yield a fine if simpler wine that can be enjoyed without cellaring.
* Vino Nobile di Montepulciano - Another special Sangiovese clone goes into another of Chianti's cousins, just about as structured and ageworthy as Brunello, but not yet quite as expensive. Today's tasting report features a Vino Nobile that's a fine value in the lower $20s.
* Vernaccia di San Gimignano - The most sought-after white wine in a land best known for its reds, this usually medium-bodied and aromatic white, made from the Vernaccia grape, comes from the picturesque village San Gimignano, a landmark for its many church towers.
The Italian Trade Commission's excellent Website, ItalianMade.com, offers brief, readable synopses of all the Italian wine regions. For the pages on Tuscany and its wines, start here:
If you'd like to read more about the competition I'll be judging, there's extensive information at the Enoteca Italiana site. It's only available in Italian, though!

Angelini 2001 "TreRose" Vino Nobile di Montepulciano ($23)
This is a very dark garnet wine, almost black in the glass. Spicy black cherry aromas, characteristic of Sangiovese, add a subtle, earthy whiff of "barnyard" that's not at all unpleasant. Mouth-filling black fruit flavors, mouth-watering acidity and smooth, silky tannins come together in a beautifully structured wine that's fine with food in spite of its unusually high (14%) alcohol content. U.S. importer: Wilson Daniels Ltd., St. Helena, Calif. (Oct. 7, 2006)
FOOD MATCH: Simple, medium-rare red meat is the answer here, and a pan-seared medium-rare rib eye made a perfect match.
VALUE: The lower $20s is more than fair for a wine of this quality.
WHEN TO DRINK: Luscious fruit makes this one unusually accessible at an age that's still young for a Vino Nobile. The conventional wisdom anticipates a plateau of maturity at 10 to 15 years past the vintage.
The Angelini Website is available in English, Italian and German. Here's a link to the English-language home page.

University of Georgia officials say Russ the bulldog has been promoted as the school's new mascot.
Director of Athletics Greg McGarity announced Thursday on the school's website that Russ will assume the title of Uga IX, the 8-year-old bulldog who is the half-brother of Uga VII.
Russ served two terms as interim mascot for the Bulldogs, filling in for the final two games following the November 2009 death of Uga VII, and the first six games in 2010. Russ made an appearance at the 2010 Liberty Bowl to replace an ill Uga VIII.
Russ became the interim mascot after Uga VIII died in February 2011.
Official ceremonies will be held before the Sept. 15 game between Georgia-Florida Atlantic at Sanford Stadium in Athens.
Georgia is 14-9 with Russ as mascot.

Rocktron Boutique Series Unity Floor Pedal Tuner
The Unity Tuner is a true "on-stage" tuner for any gig. Part of the Rocktron Boutique Series of stomp boxes, the Unity Tuner lets you easily see what note you are tuning, no matter what the playing situation. Several red LEDs are also used to help you easily determine if you are sharp or flat and by how much.
Photocells are unique to the Unity Tuner. These photocells sense the lighting situation you are performing in and adjust the brightness of the LED Note Display to accommodate that lighting. When you are playing outside on a sunlit stage, the photocells sense that the area is bright and increase the LED intensity making the LEDs brighter and easier to see. The opposite effect happens when playing in a dark, low lit situation. The photocells sense that the lighting is low and dim the LED Note Display making it easier on the eyes.
The Unity Tuner is equipped with a "STROBE" function for those who require extremely accurate tuning. The STROBE function is a sensitive tool that really allows you to dial in the exact tuning.
Two outputs are provided as well. The jack marked "OUTPUT" provides a constant signal path to other effects or amps when you turn on the tuner. This allows you to hear what you are tuning through your amp. When the "OUTPUT (MUTE)" is used, the Unity Tuner cuts the signal to the next effect or amp and allows you to tune in silence. This is a very useful on-stage tool.
The "note LED bank" of blue LEDs will display the note being played or tuned, while the black display houses the LEDs and controls for the Unity Tuner. An IN TUNE green LED will light when the note being played is "in tune". Red LEDs show if your note is sharp or flat, and if the note being played is sharp, the sharp (#) symbol will "light".
A Calibrate button allows calibration of the tuner to match pitch of any instrument or audio source (like an old piano or tape player).
A 9VDC Input jack provides 9VDC power to the pedal from the Rocktron DC OnTap Universal Power Adaptor (not included ). A 9V Alkaline battery may also be used.
The Unity Tuner is housed in a rugged metal road-worthy chassis.

Cranmore children prepare for Model sleepover
This project started two weeks ago on the 20th of September. It involves the children of Cranmore (ages range from 7-10). We introduced the children to different forms of art. I started on the 2nd week of the project where the task was to find as many different textures and materials on the way to the model gallery from Cranmore. We also watched a short film called the Lost Thing which the kids found very amusing.
This week we got them to design their own lost thing, either with collage/sculpting, drawing or painting. They had the choice to move around to which ever table they like. The kids especially enjoyed the collage/sculpting table. Hannah made a lovely 3D sculpture of her lost thing. I asked her questions about it and she told me "it lives where the other lost things live in the movie"
The children show so much enthusiasm with this project, and all the tables were busy.
The two boys out of the group Louis and Kieran loved sculpting; Kieran made a robotic lost thing and told me "the idea was in my head"
Louis made a lost thing he said "had a beard like Santa" Paula and Rebecca decided to make a photo guide of the last week walk from the picture they took themselves.
The kids have been amazing and I love working with them, Naomi and Lara. Their excitement and love for art is so heart warming. I am looking forward to the next few weeks especially the sleepover on the fifth of November where the children in the Cranmore group will get to meet the other group.

Winners of the 2012 Video Contest

World population, now over 7.3 billion, is predicted to rise to 9 billion by 2050, an increase of almost two billion, or 23%, in the short space of only 34 years from now.In the highly unlikely event that per capita greenhouse gas emissions could possibly be decreased by an equal percentage in such a short space of time (a blink of an eye) the total amount of worldwide emission would remain the same!
From this simple illustration it would appear that without drastically reducing the size of world population, there is no solution to the problem.None at all.So then why do our world leaders pretend that there is one?What is to be gained by pretending rather than by proposing a solution that would solve the problem – a reduction in the size of world population to not more than 1- 2 billion?

Despite the government's official stance that they remain closed, the Pisgah Inn's concessionaire has filed an injunction to prevent the National Park Service from enforcing the federal shutdown of his hotel, restaurant and retail operations.
Despite the government's official stance that they remain closed, the Pisgah Inn's concessionaire has filed an injunction to prevent the National Park Service from enforcing the federal shutdown of his hotel, restaurant and retail operations.
The inn, at Milepost 408.6 on the Blue Ridge Parkway, began booking people into rooms Wednesday and planned to offer dinner service in its restaurant beginning at 5 p.m., according to front desk manager Kent Burgess. The inn's gift shop and country store reopened Wednesday morning, he said.
After initially defying orders from the National Park Service to close their federally-owned property, Pisgah Inn concessionaire Bruce O'Connell decided to comply with NPS orders to cease operations at 6 p.m. Oct. 3. But he criticized the closure, saying his business should remain open for the sake of visitors, his 100 employees and the parkway's environment.
The following day, NPS law enforcement officers parked their patrol cars and blocked the entrance to the inn, turning away visitors. They remained there until roughly 7 p.m. Tuesday, said Rob Miller, the inn's general manager.
That's when an injunction O'Connell filed in federal court Monday "went through the proper channels, and we were notified we could reopen," said Miller, who added that attorneys in Asheville and Washington, D.C. were hired to do the legal work.
"It was worth it to us to get back open," Miller said. "We're already selling out for the weekend again."
Chief Ranger Steve Stinnett said Wednesday "there's no official change from the Park Service at this time. I have no official word that we are in anything other than in shutdown mode in relation to any of our concessionaires."
However, Stinnett said none of the Parkway's 27 law enforcement rangers are "up in that area" of the Pisgah Inn, except for "normal patrols."
Inn managers said October is typically the hotel's busiest month of the year, thanks to fall tourism associated with the season's colorful foliage. Miller said about seven or eight rooms were booked for Wednesday night so far, but he expected reservations to grow as word got out the inn was reopening.
"I know, before this happened, we were sold out for tonight," Burgess said. "We did try to contact everyone who we had to cancel for tonight, and some of them reinstated."
Stinnett said all of the other concessionaires along the 469-mile Parkway have closed, including the Peaks of Otter Lodge and Mabry Mill stops in Virginia and the Northwest Trading Post, Price Lake boat rentals and Folk Art Center in North Carolina.
While concessions and facilities such as campgrounds have closed due to the federal shutdown, the parkway's motor road remains open except for a damaged section of roadway between Mileposts 393 and 389 near Asheville.
Stinnett said law enforcement rangers are still out patrolling the parkway daily.
"We've been stopping people driving 70 miles per hour because they heard there are no rangers on the parkway," he said. "We've arrested people for poaching plants because they heard there were no rangers on the parkway. We're still charged with keeping people safe and protecting our resources."
The federal shutdown has shuttered 401 NPS units, including the Carl Sandburg Home in Flat Rock. It also forced Henderson County's Soil and Water Conservation District employees to vacate a federally-owned building on Triple Springs Road that they share office space in, along with federal USDA employees.
District staff is still doing field work and operating as usual outside of their office. County Manager Steve Wyatt told commissioners Monday that their USDA office is part of the "17 percent of the federal government that shut down," so the county has relocated them to temporary office space at 100 N. King St.
The best access to reach their office is through the Second Avenue entrance, which is also the Agribusiness Henderson County entrance, said County Engineer Marcus Jones. Soil and Water Conservation District employees will work out of county offices until the federal shutdown is resolved, he said.

Those Places Thursday - St. George, Utah (Fall 1963)
In the fall of 1963 we moved from Winslow, Arizona, to St. George Utah. This move took us from south and east of the Grand Canyon to north and west of the Grand Canyon! The whole detachment, all the radars, all the trailers they were housed in, all moved from the mesa west of Winslow to another mesa on the west edge of St. George. Actually, in the photo, above, looking north and a little west, you can see the north end of the mesa to the far left. The St. George airport is also on the mesa; the detachment was to the south end of the mesa.
It appears this photo was taken at Christmas time; I can see the wreath and other decorations. We lived here until Summer 1964. Allison was born in March. Life marches on. ;-)
Families are forever! ;-)

Ricky Martin's "Livin' La Vida Loca"
Ricky Martin's Vida Loca
Welcome to Forgotten Videos. Well, for some forgotten, for others just filed away, and for others still, a totally brand-new discovery. Whichever category you fall into, each week we'll feature a video that's possibly been collecting dust when what it really deserves is a fresh look. Or, we'll be giving a fresh look at a video that deserves to be collecting dust. We're not here to judge, we just want to take you on a little trip down memory lane. Yep, you'll remember when hair was really that big, when drums were that up front in the mix, when video was young(er) and so were you.
Ricky Martin
"Livin' La Vida Loca"
As The Latin Recording Academy prepares for the 11th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards tonight (you can watch the telecast live on the Univision Network at 8 p.m. ET/PT), we highlight a ubiquitous Latin tune that topped the charts in 1999 and garnered a GRAMMY nomination for Record Of The Year at the 42nd Annual GRAMMY Awards — Ricky Martin's "Livin' La Vida Loca."
You may remember Martin's colorful performance of "The Cup Of Life (La Copa De La Vida)" the year before at the 41st Annual GRAMMY Awards, where he took home the Best Latin Pop Performance award for "Vuelve." This week's featured song is just as colorful…and a little crazier. Backed by a flavorful horn section and before a party-ready crowd, Martin sings the story of a woman who's living the ultimate crazy life and brings him in to live it with her…though likely not against his will: "She'll make you live her crazy life/But she'll take away your pain."
The rest of the song is full of those crazy, and sometimes once-in-a-lifetime, moments — dancing in the rain, speed-racing a car into a fire hydrant and waking up in a cheap New York motel with a beautiful woman (with mocha-colored skin).
Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Martin released his first self-titled English-language pop album in 1999, which features "Livin' La Vida Loca" and another Top 5 hit, "She's All I Ever Had." The album was instrumental in establishing him as an international Latin star.
A three-time Latin GRAMMY winner, Martin will again share the GRAMMY spotlight tonight as he appears in a special presentation to 2010 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year Plácido Domingo at the 11th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards telecast.
