As the long-term readers here are aware, I become scarce about this time of year, and remain that way until November. My work takes me out into the field for the next several months, and my time, opportunity, and inclination to write blog posts takes a major hit. A week from now, that cycle is going to start again. Besides the usual workload, I am once again breaking in a new assistant, which means even less time. Now, on to the other stuff.
A Zoo Or Park Is Not Nature
Recently the state environmental department announced plans to control an introduced species, which is on the verge of becoming seriously invasive. In the areas where it's currently established itself, it caused serious damage wetland and aquatic plants, has displaced – and often attacks – native species, created public health hazards, and injuries to the public. Once confined to a relatively small area of the state in limited numbers, over the past few years it has spread to new areas, and numbers are increasing. The state plans to reduce this population in the wild to zero over the next ten years. Pretty open and shut, right? Not really, since all such plans have a "public comment period" attached to them, and there's a good percentage of people against it.
Windows XP's Last Day (Sort Of)
In case you haven't been paying attention, and really, most people don't to tech news, today is the last day that Microsoft will support Windows XP. What does that mean?
It means that there will be no more official security updates and bug fixes for the operating system from Microsoft.
Which is going to hit a lot of people, since figures are that up to 30% of Microsoft's "installed base" (people using their operating systems) are still using XP. Last year during the Healthcare.gov roll-out, more than a few conservatives and media figures latched onto the notion that some of it was based on "10 year-old technology," with the implied – or outright said – assertion that private business would never be caught using "obsolete technology." Of course, that bears little relation to reality.

Hope You Saved The Money
I was recently reading a very good series on West Virginia over at Al Jazeera. It's the thing that you used to see from our media, but no longer. It's a rather disturbing picture of what happens when an area is almost totally dependent on one industry, and one that is an "extractive industry:" Coal. The reports focus on one county, McDowell, which in the past was one of the major producers of coal. Today? Well, it's not a very nice place. But there's some lessons in there as well.
Miscellaneous Musing
It's officially "Spring," according to the calendar, although the "look out the window" around here says "still Winter." There are signs that spring will eventually get here, but exactly when is anyone's guess. One of the evidences for climate change from my perspective is that "general predictability" has gone out the window in the past decade. There was a time when I could plan around when seasons would begin, within a week or two. Now, I have to guess within a month or so, and I'm usually wrong.

Good Morning! Paul Georgy with early morning comments for March 26, 2013 at 4:45 am. Grains futures are lower on profit taking after a late rally yesterday. Heavy snow across the Midwest and below normal temps for the next 2 weeks has traders willing buyers in the new crop futures. China buying new crop #soybeans and no announcement of old crop sales has bull spreaders taking some profits. The tight stocks estimates could help provide some support for spreads. The trade averages as (surveyed by Reuters) for Quarterly Stocks for March 1, 2013 in #corn is 5.013 billion bushel, soybeans is .935 billion bushel and #wheat 1.117. USDA March 1, 2012 was corn 6.023, soybeans 1.374 and wheat 1.199. Trade average estimates for Prospective Plantings are corn 97.252 mil acres, soybeans 78.394 mil acres, and all wheat 56.442 mil acres. The recent price rally in corn is giving farmers a reason and incentive to release some of their inventory. Basis has topped for the near-term and giving traders a reason to reduce size in the May/Dec corn spreads. Effective Sunday, April 7, 2013 (trade date Monday, April 8), all CBOT, KCBT and MGEX Grain and Oilseed Futures and Options will reduce electronic trading hours on CME Globex. The trading hours will be: Sunday-Friday: 19:00 to 07:45 CT, Monday-Friday: Break from 07:45 to 08:30 CT, Monday-Friday: 08:30 to 13:15 CT, Mini-Sized Grains: 08:30 to 13:45 CT. Our advice is to not be lulled to sleep by pre-report action. Be ready to adjust your positions as spring planting will be front and center next week. Friday's Cold Storage report showed increase beef in storage at a time the industry has 12% less market ready cattle. Pork supplies fell 16 million pounds which was in line with expectations. Beef prices have the disadvantage when compared to pork and poultry. Consumer demand is critical to beef prices. Boxed beef prices were lower again on Monday.

Its Just Around The Corner
By Andy Jordan
In a journal abstract published in Science, anthropologists reported finding in Peru 9,000-year-old macrofossils of cotton plants (Gossypium barbadense) – the commercial species is Pima.
They also found fossil parts of peanuts and squash plants and garden plots complete with irrigation canals and farm tools. The glimpse of a distant past is a clue that structured agriculture, as primitive as the techniques might have been, has been around for many millennia and gives testimony to the resilience of agriculture.
With a foundation in engineering and science and stints in telecommunications, aerospace and cotton, I recently made another career turn. This shift allowed me the opportunity to join like-minded agricultural scientists, agribusiness professionals and respected wildlife conservation groups in an alliance for sustainable agriculture.
My motivation is to do my part to see to it that the planet is capable of feeding and clothing 9.2 billion people by 2050. That's three billion more than today. In the next 40 to 50 years, food and fiber needs will double. During that time, farmers will produce more food and fiber than they have in the past 10,000 years combined.
Why do I choose 2050 as the target date for sustainability? Most population models agree that the world population will level off at about 9 to 10 billion people. To make the challenge of feeding and clothing 9.2 billion people even more interesting, this must be done with diminishing oil production and reduced access to fresh water while maintaining healthy and ample wildlife habitat.
The question is not should it be done or can it be done. It simply must be done. The alternative is not attractive. That's the driving force behind the coalition in which I'm involved called, Field to Market – the Alliance for Sustainable Agricultural Solutions. The National Cotton Council and Cotton Incorporated are charter members of this coalition.
Colombe, my newest great-grandchild, came on this planet a year ago. Her arrival put a keen sense of urgency for us to get this sustainability thing right. I try to envision the world through Colombe's eyes when she is my age – to imagine agriculture that will produce the food and fiber for her and nine billion other earthly residents. That's rather like my grandparents predicting in 1900 what was in store for my parents.
Automobiles, rural electrification, airplanes, mechanical cotton harvesters, herbicides, radio, television, satellite communications and hybrid crops were unknowns. Chances are that most of them were not even thought about. Each of these became reality during my parents' lifetime.
I recently was on a church mission taking water disinfection technology to poor people in Ghana. In a van driving deep in the hinterlands of West Africa, I received and sent e-mail on my handheld Blackberry phone instantaneously to my family and business in Tennessee. Could my parents have imagined anything like that? Probably not.
The world will experience another green revolution. Farmers will grow oil crops that produce 10 times more bio-diesel on an acre of land than our current oil crops like corn, soy and rapeseed. Solutions won't happen just by chance. They will be met with appropriate investments in agricultural research to educate the populace on the urgency of charting a path for future agriculture.
– Andy Jordan, Memphis, Tenn.

The Montreal Canadiens announced Monday that Bob Gainey has stepped down as general manager of the hockey club and that the team has promoted Pierre Gauthier as Executive Vice President and general manager. Gainey will stay with the front office in an advisory role.
"I've done my best and now it's time for me to pass the torch," Gainey said on Monday. "I believe that the general manager position requires a long-term vision and a long-term commitment. At this point, I'm not prepared to make a commitment of four or five or six more years in this position.
"If I had to choose between leaving a little earlier, or a little later, I'd prefer (to go) earlier."
The Canadiens are 28-26-6 this season and are sixth in the Eastern Conference standings.
Gainey, 56, was hired in 2003 as the 15th general manager in franchise history and the Canadiens made the playoffs in four of the five full seasons he led the front office. Under his guidance, the club tallied a 241-176-46-7 record and .569 winning percentage.
Their best season during that period came in 2007-08, when the team finished atop the Eastern Conference standings and made it to the second-round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
"I would say one of the happiest, nicest things has been to see the new generation of Montreal Canadiens fans," said Gainey. "The youth and the enthusiasm and the passion, the joy in the building when we play, by people who are hoping for the same experience their parents had or their grandparents had. That was a bridge that I think I was lucky enough to approach six years ago and participate with a bigger organization...for me, that's a very special thing."
Once described by Russian hockey legend Viktor Tikhonov as the world's most complete hockey player, Gainey played his entire NHL career with the Canadiens from from 1973 to 1989 and was the team captain for his last eight seasons. As a player, he won five Stanley Cups and won the Selke Trophy as best defensive forward in four consecutive seasons. He was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP in 1979.
Following his playing career, Gainey coached the Epinal hockey team in France and later joined the Minnesota North Stars as head coach. He led the North Stars to the Stanley Cup final in 1991 and was coach and general manager from 1992 to 1996.
From 1996 to 2002, Gainey led his team - which re-located to Dallas - to a Stanley Cup in 1999. He was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1992 and the Canadiens officially retired his No. 23 jersey in 2008.
"I'm leaving the team I love the most in the hands of the man I trust the most," said Gainey. "I look forward to assisting Pierre and the team in our pursuit of our 25th Stanley Cup."
Gauthier, 56, joined the Canadiens as director of pro scouting in 2003 and was named assistant general manager in 2006.
A native of Montreal, Gauthier has served as general manager of the Ottawa Senators and Anaheim Mighty Ducks. He also worked with current Canadiens head coach Jacques Martin during their days with the Senators and Quebec Nordiques.
"I like this team and I like the coaching staff," said Gauthier. "I've worked with Jacques (Martin) before, I'm very comfortable with this group. As soon as I leave this room today, I'm going to roll up my sleeves and get the job done."
Gauthier addressed some key questions regarding the current team, including the status of soon-to-be unrestricted free agent Tomas Plekanec and Jaroslav Halak and Carey Price. The new general manager said that he's already had some dialogue with Plekanec's agent Rick Curran and also discussed trade speculation surrounding his goaltenders.
"We believe we can go far with these two young men," said Gauthier. "You can never say never, but that's a strong position and we would like to keep it strong."
Gauthier worked with the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim during six seasons, serving as the team's assistant general manager from 1993 to 1995. Following three seasons as general manager of the Senators from 1995 to 1998, he returned to Anaheim as President and general manager from 1998 to 2002.
Gauthier originally came to the Anaheim organization from the Quebec Nordiques, where he spent 12 seasons from 1981 to 1993, serving in all areas of scouting.
Gauthier also worked with Gainey and Bobby Clarke as one of three NHL general managers for the Canadian National Team at the 1998 Olympic Games in Nagano. He was also Team Canada's general manager for the gold-medal winning team at the 1997 World Championship in Finland, as well as the silver-medal winning team at the 1996 World Championship in Austria.
"That's the objective - to get to the top tier of the league and to do that consistently," said Gauthier.

The first human pregnancy from a frozen oocyte was achieved in Australia in 1985 by Dr. Christopher Chen (Lancet 1(vol 8486): pp 884-886, 1986), just one year after the first baby had been born from a previously frozen embryo. Since then we have come a long way and current reports suggest that preserved and then thawed oocytes can perform just as well as fresh oocytes. In a recent study using oocytes from young donors, Peter Nagy from Reproductive Biology Associates in Atlanta showed that frozen oocytes actually outperformed fresh oocytes from the same donors in a side by side study. 134 out of 153 oocytes survived after warming and fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy rates were normal, leading to 16 pregnancies among the 20 recipients in the study (Fertility and Sterility, 92: pp 520-6, 2009). Pregnancies were also achieved from frozen embryos derived from the frozen oocytes in that study.
As a young embryologist in London in the late 1980's I remember meeting Dr. Chen, and the wide skepticism that surrounded his work made an impression on me. It hadn't been possible to repeat his effort and his early success did not yield a method that could be reliably or consistently used to freeze oocytes. He had used a procedure called "slow-freezing" which worked and continued to work reasonably well for embryos, but which has been unreliable for freezing oocytes.
The human oocyte is a huge cell at about 100 µm in diameter. It is so big that under the right circumstances it can actually be seen with the naked eye, without the use of a microscope. All human cells are smaller than this, with skin cells measuring about 30 µm and a sperm head (the smallest human cell) measuring just 5 µm long and 3 µm wide. And this size has been one reason why oocytes have been so difficult to freeze successfully. Cell freezing is dramatically influenced by the cell's surface area to volume ratio, and by its water content, and since the oocyte is so big, these dimensions are very different from all other cell types. One way to think about this is to compare the dimensions of the earth to those of the moon, which measures about 25% of the earth's diameter. The moon's surface area however, is only about 7% that of the earth and its volume is just 2%. Similarly, the dimensions of the human oocyte outstrip other cells when we look at these key measurements. The table below shows the key surface area to volume ratios for a sperm and an oocyte.
|Surface area
Other than size and water content, there is one other significant hurdle to oocyte freezing that is not a factor when freezing other cells. At ovulation, the oocyte is close to completing meiosis, a type of cell division that reduces DNA content by half in preparation for fertilization. While the ejaculated sperm has fully completed meiosis and is in a state of nuclear stability, the oocyte in contrast pauses at a very sensitive stage, metaphase II, and as a result is very sensitive to physical (e.g. being handled too much), chemical (pH) and environmental (temperature) changes, which can cause irreversible damage if not carefully controlled.
Chen's method, and the traditional method for embryo freezing involves slowly dehydrating cells and then cooling them very slowly over a period of approximately 90 minutes, until they reach a temperature of between -30 and -400C. The oocytes or embryos are then stored in liquid nitrogen at -1960C until they are needed, at which time they are thawed and rehydrated. The removal of cell water is a critical part of the process as any water remaining inside the cell can freeze (turn to ice) that will rupture (kill) the cell. Dehydration is achieved with the use of permeating agents (called cryoprotectants) such as ethylene glycol, glycerol or DMSO which enter cells and draw water out by simple osmosis. Non permeating cryoprotectants such as sucrose, which will not cross a cell membrane by osmosis, are also used to further dehydrate the cell before freezing. Slow freezing uses minimal concentrations of cryoprotectants and is a slow and delicate process that aims to prevent ice formation inside cells.
In the 1990's and 2000's as IVF became a widely available technology with ever improving success rates, several countries around the world moved to regulate the industry. In Europe, Germany, Italy and Switzerland all established laws that limited the number of embryos that could be created and/or frozen in an IVF treatment cycle. The law in Italy required that any oocyte that had been incubated with sperm had to be transferred to the mother, even if that oocyte did not fertilize. Such laws limited the number of oocytes that could be inseminated, and since IVF usually generates multiple oocytes, research on improving oocyte freezing methodology became very important. The Italians with their prohibitive laws lead this effort and several promising papers resulted that brought improvements in the slow freezing method for oocytes. However, despite the considerable time and effort to develop a method for slow freezing oocytes, only about 300 babies were reported worldwide after about 2 decades of trying (Reprod Biomed Online, 18(6), pp 769-76, 2009). The slow progress of this method together with disappointing efficiencies, suggested that slow freezing was unlikely to ever be a useful method for oocyte freezing.
In the quest to improve oocyte freezing methods, and in the face of disappointing results with slow freezing, scientists began to look for an alternative method that would improve outcomes. In 1985, mouse embryos had been successfully preserved using a process called vitrification (Nature, 313, pp573-5) which prevents ice formation in cells by using higher concentrations of cryoprotectants and ultra-rapid cooling. Vitrification is a technically more challenging procedure and depends a lot on the skills of the embryologist in handling oocytes or embryos through the process. This handling skill (referred to as the "technical footprint") is more critical since vitrification is an ultra-rapid procedure where the individual steps are timed to the second, and it requires higher concentrations of cryoprotectants that are extremely viscous and difficult to work with. It also uses smaller vessels to contain the oocytes compared to the large ¼ or ½ cc straws, or 1 ml vials that were used with slow freezing. The typical vitrification straw or container is just bigger than the oocyte itself, allowing for the maximum possible cooling rate when plunged into liquid nitrogen. In a typical vitrification procedure, the final step requires that the oocyte be placed in a solution that is composed of about 30-35% cryoprotectant by volume, then aspirated in as small a volume as possible into a tiny container before plunging into liquid nitrogen and getting to -1960C in 1-2 seconds. When we teach this procedure, practically all the emphasis is on the technical footprint.
By 2005, after years of experimenting on bovine and porcine oocytes (which are similar in dimensions to human oocytes) researchers led by Masa Kuwayama from Tokyo began publishing very exciting results from vitrified human oocytes (RBM Online, vol. 11, pp 300-8). Survival of oocytes was over 90% after warming, and fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy rates were similar to those achieved with fresh oocytes. Finally a reliable method was available and it could be learned and implemented by embryologists all over the world. Vitrification worked so well that it was quickly adapted for embryos, and is now the standard procedure for preserving surplus embryos after IVF treatment. The number of IVF clinics that still freeze embryos by the older slow-freeze methodology is constantly declining, and virtually all oocyte freezing is now done using vitrification. By 2009, the number of babies born from vitrified oocytes had already passed the total number conceived over more than 20 years with slow freezing (Noyes st al., RBM Online, Vol 18 (6), pp 769-76), and the babies were normal when compared to naturally conceived children.
Here at PFC, we quickly abandoned slow freezing as soon as vitrification was seen to be safe and readily available. We first vitrified embryos in March 2007 and have not regretted the move away from slow freezing which was completely phased out by June of that year. We also began vitrifying oocytes in late 2007 and continue to use the procedure for patients facing cancer treatment and women wanting to preserve their fertility. We constantly help other programs that are learning vitrification and have visitors from all over the world that come to watch us and learn the techniques. In addition, we helped run hands-on workshops for embryologists domestically in Houston, Boston, Virginia and Austin, and overseas in Europe and South America in 2011. Vitrification has finally allowed oocytes to be reliably preserved, and since it works so well, demand for the procedure is increasing steadily.

What an amazing community! This weekend we had the privilege of seeing first hand, the kindness and generosity of this town we call home.
The Blaine Fine Arts Association held our Mega Car Wash to benefit the BHS band. It was remarkable to note the willingness of everyone to work together to teach life lessons in dependability, the value of work, and personal responsibility to a large group of young adults.
We would like to thank the Blaine School District, the maintenance department, The Northern Light, Blaine Marine Services, Pizza Factory, Mr. Gray, Mr. Kenagy, the parents and students, who came to school on a Saturday, and all those who donated to our cause.
It is great to live in Blaine.

Apparently Mr. Armerding had trouble finding the entry for Islam in my letter of two weeks ago in which I delineated the 13 various religious and philosophical versions of the Golden Rule that I am aware of and their obvious similarities. I would have never withheld the Islamic version for any reason. And I sincerely hope that my letter helped readers recognize the common ground we actually have to work with against fear, towards peace.
Therefore, I am repeating the Islamic version as follows: ISLAM; "No one of you is a believer until you desire for another that which you desire for yourself." - The Sunnah (from the Hadith), publ. 1975.
I believe we must work towards a greater understanding of the cultures, religions, and philosophies of the people with whom we share this very small planet and treat one another with the respect we all desire. That was the point of my original letter. Again, peace to all.

If you had a choice between a government employee, that's been part of a problem identified in several state audits, or a qualified citizen who's service never contained audit deficiencies, who would you choose?
That's the choice we have in the county treasurer campaign. Joe Elenbaas comes to us with a stellar reputation in banking and finance activities. His opponent is the management in the office that State Auditor Brian Sonntag's report indicates, "...does not have adequate internal controls, monitoring and oversight over cash-receipting." The audit classifies this as an on-going problem.
In real terms, this means that cash is not properly receipted, money is transferred from person to person with no record of how much was transferred, and those without authority have the ability to get into the computer and make unauthorized account adjustments. When these accounts contain hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars, disastrous things can happen!
Joe Elenbaas knows what fiduciary responsibility means, and has practiced it successfully. That's why he's got my vote for county treasurer.

As the public policy coordinator of Mt. Baker Planned Parenthood, I work for an organization that serves predominantly low-income women and their health care needs. The majority of the women (and men) who come through our doors are of limited means and rely on the discounted prices Planned Parenthood gets for contraceptives.
Unfortunately, Congress has passed legislation – the Deficit Reduction Act – that will limit the ability of safety-net providers, like many Planned Parenthood affiliates and university clinics like Western Washington University's Health Center, to offer birth control to women and families at affordable prices.
Birth control is essential to helping women and couples plan healthy families. Access to affordable birth control depends on three factors – like a three-legged stool. The first leg consists of providers like Planned Parenthood and university health centers that offer a safety net for high-quality, affordable family planning. The second leg consists of the responsible drug companies that provide cost-effective birth control to safety net providers. And the third and equally vital leg is Congress, when it prioritizes pro-family planning laws and policies and makes women's reproductive health a public health priority.
Please join me in urging Senators Murray and Cantwell to make restoration of affordable birth control a priority. Congress needs to hold up its leg of the stool.

It was good to read the letter from the Blaine council emphasizing the contribution made by Bruce Wolf. There is no question that he will be deeply missed. However, while no one can replace Bruce, we do have a candidate who can take over his responsibilities.
Harry Robinson has served, admirably, on the Blaine Planning Commission for the last seven years. He is deeply involved with the planning staff and members of the city staff. He understands the importance of gradual and controlled growth and business development. Harry is now willing to take on the duties of a council member.
Harry and his wife Joanne have been Blaine residents for 14 years and they have seven children and 13 grandchildren. He cares deeply about the future of Blaine. He is patient; a good listener and can contribute the necessary time to perform his duties, to the benefit of everyone.
As Blaine continues to grow, it will be faced with many difficult decisions. Revising the comprehensive plan; redeveloping the downtown area; revising the master plan for Semiahmoo and updating the shoreline master plan will be just some of the challenges.
Harry Robinson has the background, experience, time, skills and commitment. He is a team player and will work well with other city council members and city staff to deal with these important issues.
In addition, he firmly believes it is essential to have public input into the process. He will listen and take into consideration our concerns and comments.
Some Blaine residents appear to be confused about the voting process. It is my understanding that, while the candidate must live in the ward for which he is running, residents may vote for any councilman, irrespective of his ward, or where they live. They must, of course, be registered voters. Qualified persons have until October 6 to register.
I am "wild about Harry!" andI know residents will agree that he is the ideal choice to succeed Bruce Wolf on Blaine City Council.

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and I have discovered the truth of it! After being mostly away from Blaine during the past two years I have returned and it is good to be home. The peacefulness and quiet, the beauty of Marine Park and our ever-improving downtown, the courage and tenacity of business owners, the excitement of new growth and new ideas.
Mostly, though, it's the sense of community we have here that makes me glad to be back. Several months ago, I began to think about forming a club here in Blaine for lovers of the game of Scrabble. I approached Debby Farmer, manager of Blaine Public Library to ask about ideas for where we might meet.
To my delight, Debby embraced the idea and offered the use of the community room for our group to meet each Saturday. Her enthusiasm and effort helped me enormously, and our group is now meeting happily at the library each week to sharpen wits and vocabularies. Thanks, Debby!
The park behind my home has gotten a wonderful face-lift and I've spent many happy hours with my grandson enjoying the fantastic new play structure there. Thanks, city of Blaine, for this upgrade which makes the park a great place for families with young children to spend time together.
Sunday's rain postponed it, but I look forward to enjoying neighbors old and new at next Sunday's neighborhood picnic. What a great idea! Thanks, Salishan Neighborhood Association! I'm glad to be home. Thanks, Blaine.

The Honda Racing F1 Team's Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button will start tomorrow's British Grand Prix in 14th and 18th positions after a disappointing qualifying in front of the team's home crowd.
Rubens got a good run in the first of the three shoot-out sessions and made it through to Q2, during which he was able to extract the maximum performance from the car today. Jenson's Q1 was frustrated by traffic and a yellow flag and he was unable to get a clean lap to make it through to Q2.
Saturday Practice: P14 1:21.140
Qualifying 1: P7 1:21.169
Qualifying 3: -
"I got the maximum possible performance from the car during the second qualifying session today. It was a really good lap and I pushed as hard as possible. However at the moment, even one-tenth of a second can mean the difference between finishing at the top or bottom of the tight group that we are competing with right now. The team performed really well today, the set-up of the car was good and I felt happy with the balance, but unfortunately we just do not have the pace to get into Q3."
Saturday Practice: P19 1:21.583
Qualifying 1: P18 1:21.335
2: -
Qualifying 3: -
"What can I say? I'm obviously massively disappointed with the way qualifying went, here at Silverstone, in front of my home crowd. On my first run I got traffic from one of the BMW Saubers. Then in the second I let Anthony through because he was on a quick lap. He went off which brought the yellow flags out and that was that. As ever in this situation, the race is going to be a tough one, made all the more difficult here. We will just have to do what we can from where we are."
JACKY EECKELAERT, Engineering Director "Rubens gave it everything he had, so it is somewhat frustrating to finish 14th when we were only 0.2 sec from a top ten position. That's the way it goes nowadays because the field is so tight. Jenson was quite happy with his car balance but lifted for Anthony who had spun off and therefore did not make it through to Q2."
SUPER AGURI F1 TEAM experienced a difficult day. Anthony set a good fastest lap time during the morning's third Free Practice session, however pace and luck were not on the team's side for this afternoon's Qualifying.
DAVIDSON Saturday
Practice: P10 1:20.915 Qualifying 1: P19 1:21.448 Qualifying
2: - Qualifying 3: - "It was obviously a disappointing Qualifying session. It was always going to be tough trying to get into Q2 today. The car again did not quite have the speed like we saw in Magny-Cours, but I was confident that I could have pulled something out of the bag, until the last run, when I came out in a sea of traffic ahead of me on the opening of my lap as they came out of the pits, so I decided to abort the lap. I tried to find a good space and get a bit more heat into the rear tyres, but basically I overcooked it coming out of Brooklands, trying to get as much force into the tyres as possible and the car snapped on me. I still believe that we have a better race car than Qualifying and you never know, the British weather can be unpredictable, so I am looking forward to my first British Grand Prix tomorrow."
Saturday Practice: P20 1:21.745
Qualifying 1: P21 1:22.045 Qualifying
2: - Qualifying 3: -"We need to find out what was wrong with the car. It was not performing well and I never got comfortable grip or stability. It is disappointing as yesterday we made some progress and this morning we tried to improve the performance again for Qualifying, but the speed was not there. On my final lap I was trapped by the Yellow Flag, so I could not improve on my lap time, so I am disappointed."
TAYLOR, Sporting Director "Poor. It's been getting tighter and tighter all year. This is one of the bigger circuits, so you'd think that there would be a bit more latitude, but there wasn't. Our cars did not have the performance today and again our Qualifying session was not error free."

Does car shopping make your head spin? You probably just needed to be educated in how the whole buying process works. Keep reading for some useful tips on how to buy a new car.
When buying a used car, a great way to tell if the car has been in an accident is to look into the door frames. Usually when a car is repainted, you will notice over spray in this area. This is not proof that a car was in an accident, but it will let you know it was repainted.
Do not pay for lots of extras when you are buying a car. Sure, it would be nice to have a lot of fun features in your new car, but do you really need them? Every toy or gadget you add jacks up the price of the car considerably. Figure out what you really need, and just stick to that.

Pro-life supporters protested a clinic where abortions potentially could be performed in Huntsville.
They gathered in front of the Alabama Women's Wellness Center on Sparkman Drive. The facility had applied for a license to be able to perform abortions. The area's only existing clinic that can perform abortions may be forced to shut down.
That's because of a new state law that increased building code regulations for abortion clinics. Pro-life supporters said the proposed clinic, across from Ed White Middle School, would encourage school children to consider abortion, and would target minorities.
"Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers believe that their outreach to women of color has been ineffective, and so they are launching a multi-year campaign to get more into communities of color," said Catherine Davis with the National Black Pro-Life Coalition
"It's a little disgusting," said Kathy Zentner of the Alabama Reproductive Rights Advocates. "They say it's because they want to protect the children from knowing about this, but if they weren't out here, no child would know about it because they're the ones raising attention to the issue. They are violating city ordinances. They are on private property."
Alabama Women's Wellness Center's license application has to be approved by the State Department of Public Health.

Step right up and take advantage of the four-engine fire sale.
Flying » Used Business Aircraft Review
June 6, 2014
April 8, 2014
Here's why the model sold poorly—and why you might want to buy it.
March 5, 2014
I remember when I first saw a Boeing 757: While boarding one in 1983. I was struck by the highly cambered wings; the tall landing gear; the nose, which recalled a Lockheed Constellation; and the pair of big, high-ratio bypass engines, which seemed to produce a gentle hum as opposed to a whine. This was elegance and efficiency in motion mated to a comfortable cabin with plenty of headroom.
February 24, 2014
Gas up and go—far—in this rugged, speedy model.
October 4, 2013
It's a capable machine that deserved to do better in the marketplace.
September 25, 2013
Hush kits quiet the critics, while other upgrades add the latest bells and whistles. In this age of $7-a-gallon Jet A fuel, what would you call someone who buys a 12-passenger airplane that burns more than 550 gallons an hour? Crazy? Masochistic? How about...smart?
June 28, 2013
If you're shopping for an aircraft, paying attention to residual-value projections could save you a small fortune.
May 15, 2013
More than a decade ago, I was standing on a ramp at a California airport with an investment banker and his Dassault Falcon 900. Between incessant taps on his Blackberry, he was discussing the airplane and how he used it.
March 18, 2013
When it comes to power, performance and comfort in a used super-midsize, Bombardier's Challenger 300 stands alone. Not that there hasn't been competition.
January 30, 2013
Hawker Beechcraft, which filed for bankruptcy protection last May, is now expected to shed its jet lines before emerging with its crown jewels intact: its line of King Air twin turboprops. Some 7,000 remain in service, making it the most ubiquitous business aircraft of all time. Of those 7,000, nearly one third are 200 series.
""Many years ago, our company founder, Al Conklin, sold a new twin-engine business aircraft to a very successful entrepreneur. He had established a bit of a rapport with the individual and, after the sale, asked him straight out, 'How can you justify the cost of this airplane?' His reply? 'What is the cost of a divorce?'"–David Wyndham, president, Conklin & de Decker"

E-mail targets Obama's Afghan stop
By Alexander Lane
Published on Monday, July 28th, 2008 at 6:48 p.m.
Just after Sen. Barack Obama visited Afghanistan during his recent trip abroad, a scathing e-mail from a captain at Bagram Air Base spread virus-style, infecting blogs and inboxes across the country.
"As you know I am not a very political person," the attack begins. "I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to 'The War Zone'. I wanted to share with you what happened."
What happened, according to the author — who is reportedly a Utah Army National Guard intelligence officer — is that Obama went straight from his plane to a bulletproof vehicle, then to a meeting with a general, ignoring a line of soldiers waiting to shake his hand.
Afterward, Obama went to the Clamshell, a recreation tent, so photographers could take pictures of him playing basketball, the e-mail says. "He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service," the author wrote.
"I just don't understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-and-Chief," the self-described apolitical officer says. "It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country."
For good measure, he adds: "What you see in the news is all fake." ( Read the entire chain e-mail here. )
What about what you see in your inbox?
We've examined chain e-mails in depth , and found a great many contain falsehoods. This is unexceptional in that regard.
Obama and the two senators with him did not brush off the troops, said Capt. Christian Patterson, a spokesman for the Army's Combined Joint Task Force-101 (CJTF, in Pentagon speak) at Bagram Air Field.
"There were three members of the congressional delegation and they did stop and take time to shake hands with service members here," Patterson said.
In fact, briefings "were delayed as the senators took time to shake hands, speak to troops, and pose for photographs," said a press release issued by the Army.
And that bit about blowing off the troops for photo ops on the basketball court? "Sen. Obama did not go to the 'Clamshell' recreational tent or play basketball during his stop here," the press release says. (Obama played basketball with troops at a prior stop in Kuwait.)
"His itinerary was set by CJTF-101 prior to the visit," the press release continues. "While CJTF-101 cannot say if this blog is authentic, the comments in it are inappropriate and factually incorrect."
We were unable to speak directly with the e-mail's author, identified in most versions of the e-mail and in published accounts as Capt. Jeffrey S. Porter of the 142nd Military Intelligence Battalion. Patterson said military policy prohibited him from saying whether or not a Jeffrey Porter was serving at Bagram.
The Army Times reported that it corresponded with Porter, who asked them to "delete my e-mail and not forward it [because] after checking my sources some of the information that was put out in my e-mail was wrong. This e-mail was meant only for my family." The New York Daily News reported a similar exchange but did not identify the e-mail author by name.
But because the military directly and unequivocally contradicted the most damaging allegations at issue — that Obama shunned troops on various occasions, including on his way to a photo opportunity on the basketball court — we rule this claim False.

The Montreal Canadiens got some good news on Friday as forward Michael Cammalleri returned to practice with his teammates at the club's practice facility in Brossard.
"It feels like the first day of school a little bit," he told reporters with a smile. "(I) tried to pretend like I wasn't excited, you know, like no big deal."
The Canadiens' season appeared to take a turn for the worse back in late January when Cammalleri suffered a knee injury on a check by Ottawa defenceman Anton Volchenkov. But the Habs have been on a tear in the 15 games that he missed - going 11-4 and vaulting from 10th place in the Eastern Conference to seventh.
Montreal is also just one point behind the sixth-place Ottawa Senators and Philadelphia Flyers. The Northeast Division-leading Buffalo Sabres have 84 points with two games in hand and the two teams face each other twice down the stretch.
Cammalleri, who still leads the team with 26 goals and a plus-10 rating, alternated with winger Tom Pyatt on a line with Tomas Plekanec and Andrei Kostitsyn.
"It was really positive - couldn't have went better," said Cammalleri. "It was pain-free and didn't really restrict me much. Whenever they give me that green light, I'm ready."
Head coach Jacques Martin expects his top sniper to be back in the lineup sometime next week, while defenceman Marc-Andre Bergeron - out since Feb. 4 with a knee injury - could play Monday at home against Ottawa.
The timetable means that neither player will be in the lineup for Saturday's game in Toronto against the Maple Leafs. Montreal has been one of the league's hottest teams with a six-game winning streak, while the Leafs are 5-2-1 since the trade deadline.
"We're excited to have (Cammalleri) back in the lineup," said defenceman Hal Gill. "Right now we just want to focus on a game at a time and get him back as soon as we can."
With Cammalleri and Bergeron expected to return next week, the Canadiens will have their healthiest lineup since the puck dropped for their season opener on Oct. 1. Defenceman Andrei Markov missed the first 36 games of the season with a leg injury and the team also took its share of hits with injuries to Andrei Kostitsyn, Scott Gomez and Brian Gionta.
Veteran defenceman Paul Mara's season in Montreal is all but over, as he will travel to Boston and undergo shoulder surgery next Tuesday. Mara was listed as "did not dress" the past eight games and was injured for 11 games before that.

Review: Physical Therapy Non-Drowsy EP
Alongside producers such as Hound Scales, Divvorce, and Max McFerren, the now partially Berlin-based DJ/producer Physical Therapy (a.k.a. Daniel Fisher) has spent the past couple of years pushing a new wave of techno in NYC. Granted, he offers a particular strain of the genre that tends to be more playful and unorthodox than the more purist variants one generally associates with the sound, but his work is not without its charms. Physical Therapy has always been a particularly wide-ranging DJ and producer, but only got his official start last year with the release of an EP of melodic breakbeat hardcore on Hippos in Tanks. His latest effort, the Non-Drowsy EP, is coming via Fisher's own, newly minted Allergy Season imprint, and marks his third EP release in as many months. Although his DJ sets and mixes have taken on a decidedly techno-leaning bent as of late, little on the Non-Drowsy EP actually comes close to qualifying as techno. It's a delightfully impure grab bag, with seven referent-heavy tracks that allude to a number of dance-music styles both past and present, seemingly simultaneously. More importantly, and perhaps more than any other Physical Therapy release to date, the songs feel uniquely like the product of a single restless mind. Read more »

Set Over Existing Keys in 90% Full Bucket
I am unable to reset keys in a bucket that is 90% full. Is this because it doesn't actually reset keys, it writes new keys taking up twice as much space then moves the pointer? When do the old keys expire? I've got a large data set I need to update daily. I can't afford to have 2 to 3x the size of the data set in free ram allocated just to accommodate the set operation. Is there another way to achieve what I'm trying to do? Ideally overwriting keys in real time in a ram neutral way? I don't care if I use extra disk space.
We never rewrite any keys, but each time you add a new key Couchbase requires the key and meta data to stay in memory. Old values are also removed from memory when you add a new value for a given key. If you call flush on a cluster then all keys should be deleted.
What are your cluster specs and can you explain your use case in more detail?

It sounds like it would be a really girly book, but it's not. I definitely recommend that girls read it more than boys, but it's not about princessy things. The protagonist, Miri, is a very strong female character and the plot is great.

Tactical Operations of the West Gulf Blockading Squadron in the Civil War
Date: May 1960
Creator: Koehne, Clyde Collom
Description: Of the large amount of writings concerning the Civil War only a small percentage pertains to the Federal Navy's role. This is understandable since this was primarily a land war. A few of the Navy's exploits such as the capture of New Orleans, the sinking of the Alabama, the capture of the Florida in Brazilian waters, and the Trent affair received great amounts of publicity, but the majority of the naval activities were of a routine nature, each individually warranting little notice but collectively contributing immensely to the final Federal victory. The purpose of this paper is to show in detail the role of only a portion of the Navy, the West Gulf Blockading Squadron, during this struggle.

The Prostitution of Self-Determination by Hitler in Austria
Date: January 1955
Creator: Bates, Stephen S.
Description: The right of national independence, which came to be called the principle of self-determination, is, in general terms, the belief that each nation has a right to constitute an independent state and determine its own government. It will be the thesis of this paper to show that the Nazi regime under the rule of Adolph Hitler took this principle as its own insofar as its relations with other nations were concerned, but while they paid lip service to the principle, it was in fact being prostituted to the fullest degree in the case of Austria and the Anschluss of 1938.

Pursuit of Happiness: Struggling to Preserve Status Quo in Revolutionary Era Nova Scotia
Date: August 2006
Creator: Langston, Paul D.
Description: Following the Glorious Revolution in 1688, the British North American colonies interpreted Parliament's success in removing arbitrary governmental practices and establishing a balanced government as a victory for local representative government. Within these colonies, merchants secured their influence in local government in order to protect their profits and trade networks. The New England merchants that resettled in Nova Scotia in the 1750s successfully established a local government founded upon their rights as British subjects. The attempt by the British government to centralize the imperial administration in 1763 and the perceived threat of reintroducing arbitrary rule by Parliament was a direct threat to the colonial governmental system. Although Nova Scotia chose loyalism in 1775-1776, this decision did not stem from isolation or a differing political philosophy. In fact, it was their cultural and political similarities that led Nova Scotia and New England to separate paths in 1776. Nova Scotia merchants controlling the Assembly were able to confront and defeat attempts that threatened their influence in local politics and on the local economy. With the threat to their authority defeated and new markets opening for the colony, the Nova Scotia merchant class was able to preserve the status quo in local government.

The Legacy of Purgatory: The Continuing English Eschatological Controversy
Date: August 2006
Creator: Machen, Chase E.
Description: This work examines particular attributes of the purgatorial phenomena from pre-Christian history of the Indo-European world to the Early Modern Period of England. An attempt has been made to identify and concentrate attention upon examples which provide the most significant and penetrating look into this evolution. For example, a portion of this paper attempts to determine just how widespread purgatorial customs were throughout England and the various types of community that supported these beliefs pre and post Reformation. By comparing life before and after the reigns of Henry and Edward a conclusion is reached that reveals the Protestant Reformation in England stripped the laity of a fundamental instrument they needed to support their religiosity and custom. This becomes evident in further years as some of those same customs and rituals that had been considered anathema by Protestants, slowly crept back into the liturgy of the new religion. Strong evidence of this is provided, with a strong emphasis placed upon late seventeenth and early eighteenth century death eulogies, with a section of this paper being devoted to the phenomena of the Sin-Eater.
