Search Engine Journal , Thursday, July 30, 2009 5:15 PM
Former Howard Stern intern Chelsea Blackman looks at the state of adult entertainment and its influence on search trends, video and online advertising. It's clearly growing at a slower rate compared with the overall population of people going online.
And while porn isn't growing in the number of page views, the industry is expanding through long tail keywords, Blackman writes. With so many subcultures and genres, porn sites have been doing an amazing job catching specific interests. She tells us that in word tracker, the term "dirty" produces a list of 100 most-searched-for keyword terms.

As hokey as this sounds, I have feelings for machinery. Maybe some farmers can relate. You've got this favorite, dependable, sentimentally-valued tractor or implement in your machinery shed. It's not efficient or fast anymore at all. Yet, you hang onto it because you share some history. It has been there for you through the seasons. It's been reliable. It's your go-to bud and you feel secure in how it operates. When it needs repairs, they are basic. Tweaks are done with what…Continue Reading
If you have wondered about the workings of the University of Minnesota Extension, now is a good time to consider gaining an inside edge and helping shape Extension's future. Nominations are currently open for positions on Extension's statewide Citizen's Advisory Committee. The CAC meets twice yearly, during State Fair week and in mid-winter. After the State Fair meeting, committee members have the option of attending the fair in the evening and watching the current 4-H Arts show…Continue Reading
I spent last Saturday attending both the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation's and the Minnesota Farmers Union's annual meetings in Bloomington and Minneapolis, respectively. Attendance at both meetings was strong. Delegates at both farm organizations re-elected their current leadership. MFBF delegates re-elected Kevin Paap to his fifth term as president. MFU delegates gave approval for Doug Peterson's seventh term as president and re-elected Gary Wertish as vice-president. Both…Continue Reading
When the metro newspaper arrives on Thursdays, one section is devoted to food. By the time I am done reading it, which is usually when I'm eating lunch, I've got some good suggestions for new recipes and restaurants to try. My favorite restaurant reviewer is truly an artistic food journalist. He paints savory word pictures with his adjective-laden prose about foods he has sampled at restaurants all over the greater metro area. Last week, he featured a new restaurant that noted on its…Continue Reading
An animal rights group released another spliced-together video about alleged animal abuse. The most recent one showed video from a Pipestone System hog barn, unveiled at an Oct. 29 press conference. An undercover employee reportedly shot hidden-camera video in August and September while working at the farm over a 10-week period. The video shows a worker euthanizing runts by using blunt force trauma, piglets getting castrated and having their tails removed, and sows confined in gestation…Continue Reading
This week, Oct. 6-12, is National 4-H Week. Knowing that takes me back some four decades when I worked on a window display in the Fostoria, Michigan, variety store, along with a couple of other 4-Hers. National 4-H Week was approaching and we were asked to design and decorate a window in the store. The theme had something to do with rockets and blasting off into the future, if I recall. We made cardboard cut-outs of a rocket ship and other items, and covered them in aluminum foil or…Continue Reading
Cooler temperatures signal that little voice inside my head, telling me it's time to preheat the oven and make some cookies. Or, a pie. Or, some sort of dessert. That's what happened to me last week. Out of the blue one evening, I was measuring flour, sugar and other ingredients to make oatmeal cookies with dried cranberries. My husband was doing some work in the basement, heard the mixer running and came up to confirm what he thought I might be doing. Before descending again, he…Continue Reading
There was an interesting column in the Sunday Minneapolis Star Tribune by Dennis Anderson entitled "Raising crops and awareness." The outdoors columnist attended a Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council-sponsored farm visit that was held on Spring Creek Farms near North Branch. Owners John and Jewell Peterson are currently involved with Discovery Farms Minnesota. The farm encompasses 700 acres of corn and 700 acres of soybeans, with a small acreage of locally sold…Continue Reading
A huge annual sporting event takes place northwest of Anoka, not far from my home, called Game Fair. At Game Fair, hosted by Armstrong Kennels—a hunter, a fisherman, a dog lover, a conservationist—can find just about anything that supports and encourages the sport. You could say it's sort of like Farmfest, as that has everything for farmers. The event also hosts educational sessions and panels. A few years ago, it featured a panel of gubernatorial candidates that…Continue Reading
With Minnesota's agriculture sector providing more than 340,000 jobs for the state and creating $75 billion in economic activity, one would think that there would be plenty of news and feature stories for the general media to cover. One would think that thoughtful journalists would go beyond rewriting financial press releases or covering the latest water quality press conference. No, farmers attending Farmfest who listened to an eight-member media panel learned that agriculture…Continue Reading
Another anti-farm editorial appeared in the Star Tribune this week, penned by a columnist who cited opinion voiced by two vegetarians. The author held up "factory farming" as an example of the horror that animals face in his attempt to defend animal rights. Really? That is so 1990s. That's when livestock farms that survived the 1980s started to expand. They were building new facilities, managing new employees, adding more livestock and accumulating acreage…Continue Reading
Given all that has been going on for the past decade with ag water quality, one would think this piece would have been taken care of awhile ago. In 2010, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture started the process to revise the state's 20-year-old Nitrogen Fertilizer Management Plan to better align it with current water resource conditions and program resources. That was a good move. A Nitrogen Fertilizer Management Plan advisory committee was formed to assist the MDA in the…Continue Reading
It was a productive, story-gathering three days for me this week as I traveled to the northwest corner of the state. I joined the Minnesota Cattlemen's summer beef tour in Roseau and stopped by the Magnusson Research Farm while there. Plus, I made other visits to farms for stories you'll see in The Farmer over the next several months. I was in that part of the state last summer when I participated in the Minnesota Soybean Growers' See For Yourself tour. That trip was an…Continue Reading
The best part of my job is the chance to get out of the office and visit a farm. I thoroughly enjoy the people, the landscape, the aromas. And with June Dairy Month, I savor an added advantage: Eating ice cream and cheese, and tossing back a cold glass of milk. Last Saturday, my friend Deb accompanied me to Autumnwood Farm, south of Forest Lake. The weather was beautiful for our short road trip to the farm's open house. Farm open house workers were ready for the throngs of…Continue Reading
The annual list of new foods at the Minnesota State Fair was released the other day and like usual, I am already anticipating various stops and noshing my way across the fairgrounds. From Aug. 22 - Labor Day, Sept. 2, fair visitors will have the opportunity to sample 47 new foods at the Great Minnesota Get-Together. Cheese curds, dairy shakes and Sweet Martha's Cookies are family favorites. So I will have to pace myself during the two or three visits I'll be making. Overall…Continue Reading
It was a disappointing day for agriculture Thursday when the U.S. House of Representatives voted down the farm bill. All afternoon, I read emails from various farm organizations and lawmakers, bemoaning the fact that this happened and how horrible it was for U.S. agriculture. I also received a few statements from organizations on the other side of the issue. They were glad that the bill was defeated. Here are some snippets from those emails: -"The saying goes: you reap…Continue Reading
We are at the beginning of a busy summer and the cool, wet weather has not been cooperating. We have one high school graduation and one wedding on our calendars. That's all. And I like to garden and have things done on time. That's the "farmer" in me. However, my planting window came and went about a month ago and I still have bare ground in the garden. It's going to stay that way unless I get some steeply discounted vegetable plants at a local nursery. And…Continue Reading
As I returned home from a farm interview the other day, I happened to hear the National Press Club's lunch hour session on the radio with USDA secretary Tom Vilsack. The ag secretary talked about the "complex environmental challenges" that U.S. farmers face and how climate change is at the heart of them all. Whether you believe that premise or not, Vilsack made some solid points about the impacts seen thus far—winters not cold enough to kill pests, such as the pine…Continue Reading
I intentionally watched our senior get on the bus during her last few days of school. She is our youngest and the last one to ride. When she was done with school on Wednesday, another chapter in our lives came to a close. We no longer will have a school bus stop at our house to pick up a student. For nearly a decade, bus drivers that I remember—Jan, Bob, Bill, Bobbi and others—have safely driven our children to elementary, middle and high schools in the Anoka district. When I…Continue Reading
Social media aside, today's graduates continue to need strong communication skills to find employment. According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers' Job Outlook 2013 Survey, employers want candidates with "outstanding communication skills" and "who are team players. Other top abilities include "ability to make decisions and solve problems," "ability to obtain and process information," and "ability to plan, organize…Continue Reading
The annual Mississippi River Forum, sponsored by the National Park Service, with support from the Mississippi River Fund and the McKnight Foundation, was held May 17 at the Science Museum in St. Paul. The room was packed with about 120 people with a keen interest in water quality. That is, packed with folks representing the forestry service and other natural resources, watersheds, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Department of Public Health, university Extension and overall…Continue Reading
Nature's most perfect food continues to fight an uphill battle among the people who produce and regulate it. At issue is milk quality. The industry uses a measurement called the somatic cell count to determine if milk is clean and of the highest quality. High SCCs occur when a cow is sick with an inflammation of the udder called mastitis. Over the decades, those who oversee U.S. milk shipping have lowered the SCC number as science has proven that higher quality milk makes for…Continue Reading
We had the opportunity recently to see hundreds of youth from across the state be involved in the celebration of food—from its production to its consumption. The State FFA convention was held in St. Paul April 28-30. Some 3,000-plus FFAers converged at the U-M campus to learn more, to celebrate accomplishments and to renew friendships. That sea of blue jackets always is an inspiring sight to behold. You know the world is in good hands when you see a congregation of FFA…Continue Reading
In its ongoing effort to curtail illegal drug use, transport and smuggling, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration is going after those folks who for decades have traveled openly with antibiotics, painkillers, vaccines and other subcutaneous injections: Veterinarians. Yes, DEA's interpretation of the Controlled Substance Act stretches to those who care for and treat 1,500-pound patients in pens and fields. DEA has said that federal regulations make it illegal for veterinary…Continue Reading
Like most Minnesotans, I am tired of the snow. I am finally admitting that. I have remained stalwart throughout the winter and into March as we got hit again and again with measurable white stuff. I kept my 'happy face' on while my family and I shoveled our long driveway, telling myself and my grumbling teen that this was wonderful family bonding-time. The latter was short-lived. Unless we had snowball fights while shoveling. Which we did Thursday night. Depending…Continue Reading
USDA recently announced a new way of detecting Johne's disease in cattle. Johne's (pronounced YO-knees), also known as Paratuberculosis, is estimated to cost the U.S. dairy industry more than $220 million each year. It also affects sheep, goats, deer and other animals, causing diarrhea, reduced feed intake, weight loss and sometimes death. Microbiologists at the Agricultural Research Service National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa, discovered an antibody that's…Continue Reading
Science and innovation has advanced agriculture immensely for more than a century. If it hadn't, more people would still be raising and storing their own food. Yet, with the adoption of new methods and products comes responsibility. No matter our product price or political persuasion. Farmers today are living on the cusp of some serious agronomic and environmental issues: weed-resistant herbicides, nutrient runoff, water quality. You could add climate change if you wish. And…Continue Reading
I'm on the Internet fairly regularly, mostly for my job. I am the recipient of a lot of interesting emails. I blog and I post on my own Facebook page. I might twitter occasionally, too. Recently, I received a post on Facebook featured a You Tube video that was a parody on the Beach Boys' song "Good Vibrations" that's entitled "Feedin' A Nation." The words of the song are re-written to highlight dairy farming. It's a Midwest Dairy Video. I…Continue Reading
There aren't that many farmers left who can say they plowed fields with a team of horses and GPS, or milked cows by hand and with robots. Even Baby Boomers have farm stories to tell. How they drove tractors all day without benefit of cover, computer or communication. Why their parents doubled and tripled the size of their livestock herds. How their family farms barely survived the 1980s. Yes, we have a lot of history to share and it is so very important that some of us take on…Continue Reading
Discussions on how to address bullying issues in schools have been going on at the state Capitol for a few legislative sessions now. Gov. Tim Pawlenty vetoed an anti-bullying bill in 2009, saying that the current law on the books was adequate. Since then, at least a dozen youth in the state – one is too many—have committed suicide as a result of bullying. The most recent in the news was the tragic suicide of a young teen in southern Minnesota who took her life after…Continue Reading

Five away wins seal second straight MOL Liga for Bulls
DUNAUJVAROS, Hungary Even a 12-hour bus trip could not stop them from raising the cup above their heads. After having won their first ever MOL Liga title last year, DAB Dunaujvaros Steel Bulls repeated the same success this year defeating HSC Csikszereda in six games. Two goals in the second period by Attila Pavuk and Viktor Papp opened up the gap that the hosts could never recover from. Although pushing them back into their own zone, HSC Csikszereda could not beat Slovak goaltender Peter Sevela, who turned away all 22 shots and outplayed his countryman and opponent Stanislav Kozuch in a battle between the leagues best two netminders. Adding salt into the wounds of the home fans, the Steel Bulls doubled their lead with another deuce within the last three minutes of the game to clinch the title with a commanding 4-0 victory.After an even first period, we slowly took control in the second period, DAB Dunaujvaros assistant coach Zoltan Szilassy said. In the final period our opponent played a high tempo pressure game but luckily we were able to keep them from scoring. I dont think the 4-0 score is a good reflection of the balance of the game but Im very happy that we were able to retain our title.Surprisingly enough despite not having a 12-hour bus trip in the legs, the home team only was able to win 1 out of the 6 games in the final series.With the title, Dunaujvaros ties the city of Miercurea Ciuc / Csikszereda for MOL Liga titles, both having won two. In 2009-10, the Budapest Stars won the league, which has only been existence as of 2008. The MOL Liga is a cross border league consisting of teams based in Hungary (4), Romania (2), and Slovakia (1) but does not contain Hungarys strongest team SAPA Fehervar, currently playing in the Austrian EBEL league.After the conclusion of the MOL Liga, the teams returned to their respective national leagues, which will crown the national champions of Hungary and Romania. The mutual games between the Hungarian teams as well as the two Romanian teams in the MOL Liga also count towards the national championship.After the 48-game regular season, the semi-final draws saw first seeded DAB Dunaujvaros take on second seed Miskolci JJSE while HSC Csikszereda had to play the only Slovak team in the league, Lokomotiv Novy Zamky.While the latter match-up was clearly unbalanced and ended up in a sweep by Csikszereda (3-0), DAB Dunaujvaros needed an extra game and an OT win in game 4 to defeat Miskolci, the top scoring team of the regular season. Once again the Steel Bulls went undefeated away from home.Advancing to the final, the Hungarians broke a 1-1 series score with a pair of OT wins to take a 3-1 lead in the series. Csikszereda grabbed a 77th minute overtime winner themselves in game 5 to force a sixth game, but were unable to even out the series on home ice.The team from Dunaujvaros recent success can be partly credited to the arrival of Swedish coach Stephan Lundh who was a head coach of Frölunda HC before signing in Hungary. Previous success for the team dates back to the 90s and early 00s after followed by a decade without any championships.Contrary to most other teams, DAB Dunaujvaros used most of its import spots for defencemen, making the team solid at the back and relying on some of Hungarys best domestic playing forwards such as Nikandrosz Galanisz , David Szappanos or Attila Pavuk who hope to be in contention for a spot on the upcoming Budapest hosted World Championships Division 1 roster.The teams supremacy also showed during the annual MOL Liga awards show in which the DAB Docler took three of the four awards.Best goaltender: Patrick Polc (Corona Brasov)Best defense: Victor Lindgren (DAB Dunaujvaros)Best forward: Nikandrosz Galanisz (DAB Dunaujvaros)MVP: Nikandorsz Galanisz (DAB Dunaujvaros)It is not yet sure whether Stephan Lundh and his team will be able to go for a third consecutive title. Over the past few years the MOL Liga has seen a number of teams dropped out and a few new teams entering the league. At the moment there has no decision made yet on whether there will be a 2013-14 MOL Liga season. Another Budapest-based team is rumoured to join the league, but these same reports also mention financial struggles within the existing teams, which makes for an uncertain future.

"It is time, my minions," Creperum orated. "The elven lands are ripe for plucking, Our capital, Tenebris, rests in the mountain range that the elves falsely believe protects their flank. They allowed a faded and irrelevant side to hold this capital site, rather than claiming it for themselves, and that shall be their undoing. Already, forces are moving towards one of their cities, Sunshine Dale. You will rendezvous with those troops, and lead them to take the city."
"But first, I have a gift for you. I have been sending beasts, alone and in pairs, to one of their rural farm hexes. In order to protect the farm, they've stationed a small force there. Go there, and destroy the elven fodder. Learn to work together, and hone your skills. Expand our terrain. And, once you have triumphed at the farm, make your way to the Dale, rejoin my army, and bring a permanent sunset to their abhorrent Sunshine."
"I have purchased a number of scrolls to assist you in your endeavours. They have already been distributed to the casters. Use them at your discretion, but note that our coffers remain low. We cannot afford to replace them if they are squandered."
"Now go, and bring glory to our side. Hail, the night! Hail, the darkness! Hail, champions of Tenebris!"
Each player has 2 remaining Move left for this turn. The players begin on the other side of the hex border. The elves are unable to leave the hex, but each player is able to cross the hex border once to engage combat, and once to escape. Escaping will use up your final move, so you cannot re-enter combat this turn if you flee.
Each character (except Fliers) can move 8 squares in any direction (including diagonally) each phase. Fliers can move 12. Specify the coordinates of the square you wish to occupy. Only one unit can occupy a square at a time on a given level (ground / air). Since Cupid is the only flier in this scenario, Cupid can hover over an otherwise occupied square. Specify "Move to C-7" to move to the square directly in front of the elf warrior in the upper left, for example.
Attacks can target any square immediately surrounding the unit. Strikes can target out 2 squares in any direction, including diagonally, so the elf spearman at C-9 can hit someone standing at E-7. Fire can hit any target that you have line-of-sight on. However, note that non-magical Fire attacks against targets immediately behind other targets (say, the archer at D-9) gain a +4 cover bonus if you attempt to shoot them from the same level. Firing at them from above negates the cover bonus.
Remember that combat is resolved in the order of highest combat first. If you wish, you can make your orders conditional (for example, 'heal the most wounded if any are at less than half hits, otherwise target the most wounded enemy').
Since there are exactly 8 of you, you are assumed to be in a single stack with Tod and are all benefiting from his leadership bonus of +1 Combat / +1 Defense.

Supervisor questions private meeting with Range officials
Three Cecil Township supervisors met privately with Range Resources officials last week, reversing a June decision to cancel the meeting after the municipality's insurance carrier raised concerns about it.
Supervisor Andy Schrader, who was not invited to the Aug. 6 meeting and did not attend, called on Washington County District Attorney Gene Vittone to investigate whether the quorum of three supervisors violated the state's Sunshine Law.
Plans to meet with Range were not discussed the night before during the supervisors' regular voting meeting.
Schrader said he did not know about the meeting until he received an email Wednesday from Jim Cannon, manager of government relations at Range Resources. Cannon acknowledged that a meeting took place in Range's offices in Southpointe, and supervisors Tom Casciola, Elizabeth Cowden and Frank Ludwin attended. Cannon said in the email that several issues were discussed, including the Worstell impoundment on Swihart Road, and that "there were several ideas we all considered and agreed might address the concerns that have been articulated by nearby residents, including speed on the road and traffic volume."
Schrader said he was unsure if he and Supervisor Mike Debbis, who also did not attend the meeting, were intentionally excluded. He also questioned the wording of Cannon's email, which led him to believe that "agreeing" on anything would be a violation of the Sunshine Act.
"There's a fine line between agreeing to something and having a course of action," Schrader said.
The decision to meet privately with Range contradicts a 4-1 vote on June 4 to cancel the meeting after the township insurance carrier raised concerns about it since the two sides are locked in litigation. The township supervisors originally voted 3-2 on May 7 to schedule a private meeting with Range.
The supervisors' private meeting came just a few days before the entire board met Aug. 9 with the state Department of Environmental Protection in a closed conference to discuss the Worstell impoundment.
Cecil Township solicitor John Smith said he was unaware of the meeting until after Cannon's email was received. Township Manager Don Gennuso did not attend the meeting and declined to comment.
Schrader has contacted the district attorney asking him to look into the matter. Vittone could not be reached for comment on the inquiry. However, a private meeting with a quorum of supervisors does raise legal questions, according to Melissa Melewsky, of the Pennsylvania NewsMedia Association.
"Any time you hear about a public agency or a quorum of elected officials meeting privately to discuss agency business, it raises compliance issues," Melewsky said. "There are a number of limited exceptions that allow private disucsisons. None seems applicable here."
None of the supervisors in attendance, nor Range Resources officials, returned multiple phone calls seeking comment regarding the meeting.

With information from Michael Moore, U. S. Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia-
Robert Cedrick Baker, III, age 37, of Gainesville, Florida entered a plea of guilty Tuesday to possession with intent to distribute heroin and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime in Valdosta federal court.
Baker, made famous by the photograph of Georgia's mascot UGA lunging at him, was stopped by the Lowndes Co. Sheriff's Office in January on Georgia Highway 401 for a traffic violation.
He had 59.5 grams of heroin and a Smith & Wesson, 9mm semi-automatic pistol. As part of his plea of guilty, Mr. Baker admitted that he possessed the heroin for distribution, and he was carrying the 9mm semi-automatic pistol in furtherance of his drug trafficking crime.
The maximum penalty for possession with intent to distribute heroin is twenty years in prison and a fine of $1,000,000.00, or both. The firearm charge caries a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of five years.
The case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the Lowndes County Sheriff's Office. Assistant United States Attorney Peter Leary is handling the prosecution for the Government.

Ecklers Fiberglass Parts and AccessoriesEckler's Camaro Hand Laminated or Press Molded Fiberglass Body Parts Choose from Hand Laminated or Press Molded to repair your fiberglass to near original condition! The hand laminating process begins with three mils of gel coat sprayed into a female mold to create a smooth outer surface. Next, resin is painted by hand onto the gel coat followed by the "layering in" of three layers of mat and resin. The mat and resin are carefully rolled out with a hand roller to eliminate air bubbles and to assure uniformity. This process allows the creation of unique parts like the one piece front end which is easier to install than the multi-piece units from the factory. This time honored system combined with the use of only automotive grade resins and gel coat produces a beautifully smooth, strong and easy to sand part. Eckler's Camaro Press molded parts are made with a huge hydraulic press which holds large male and female steel tools (known as the molds). Fiberglass mat and resin is placed between the tools and is pressed together under extremely high pressure and heat. This process allows the production of high volumes of parts that are perfectly uniform in thickness and that are smooth on both sides. Press molded parts do not have a gel coat finish though. Parts can also be manufactured using low pressure press molding. This method takes a precisely cut fiberglass mat and places it into a two-piece closed mold. Resin is injected into the mold and allowed to cure. This method also produces a smooth surface on both sides of the part. |

Title: | The Boy and the Snow Goose/Le Petit Garçon et l'Oie des neiges |
Director: | Thomas, Gayle |
Year: | 1984 |
Length: | 10 min 32 s |
In this enchanting animation film without words, a young boy finds an injured snow goose, which he nurses back to health. Constant companions throughout the glorious, sun-filled days of summer, the two sadly separate in autumn when the bird obeys the call to join its flock for the annual flight south. Lonesome for his friend, the boy whiles away the long winter dreaming of how he and the goose would fly together to magical places. With spring's return, the boy and the snow goose are happily, though briefly, reunited, each one realizing that the bond of love and friendship between them will endure.
