Well a first for us is that we are cutting soybeans before we shell any corn. Corn was still running in the high 20′s for moisture but the beans were dry. So we went to the bean field.
I shot about 2 hours of video with the GoPro on a small tripod in the cab before I decided it was not the thing to use. It kept falling over with every bump I hit. I moved on to a Ram Mount ball where I could tie it down good and tight. Anyway I managed to get three plus minutes of video to show how things were going on Saturday to make this video.
I will shoot some more and make another bean video and most likely a few corn videos as I work on perfecting my technique.
BTW the beans were good, averaging almost 50 bu/ac across 70 acres. The more dust that rolled out of the combine the higher the yield was….. seeing upwards of 70 in the real dusty places. No dust, no beans or low bean yields in the 30′s.
Got a GoPro and am trying to learn how to use it and how to edit the video. This is my first attempt………….
Took this off the man lift of the corn field behind the house, it sure looks a lot different this year.
I am still alive and kicking, still farming and still consulting. Heck even still shooting and enjoying the outdoors despite the terrorist attempts that our government has made to destroy our constitutional rights.
That being said, I have just been real lazy about the website for quite a while. Two reasons I guess. First is that I don't have a smart phone any more. So mobile updates and picture adds are non existent.
Second, I just needed a break with everything else going on.
So I hope to be back active posting on this page by the middle to the end of July.
Stay tuned!
Had a great time last week at Red Brush Range east of Evansville IN, shooting with the Project Appleseed folks at a KD. KD stands for Known Distance, where we shoot at 100, 200, 300 and 400 yards using the old army qualification test of standing, standing to sitting, standing to prone, and prone. You fire 10 rounds at each target and have 2 minutes, 55 seconds, 65 seconds and 5 minutes respectively to get your rounds on the target.
Here I am in prone taking my sighters at 200 yards. This photo was taken off a video camera that had a program to age it so that is why it looks the way it does.
Those Army silhouette D targets look small at 200 yards and even smaller at 400!
We also got to take sighters at 500 yards but with the wind that picked up just before that course of fire I am not sure I learned much other than my come ups from 400 to 500 yards. I was shooting 69 gr Sierra BTHP bullets in a 1 in 9 twist barrel. My final score for the shoot was a respectable 28/40. Not at all bad for my very first KD. 32/40 is a Rifleman's score.
Here is my scoring target from 400 yards. The guys in the pit take down your target and then mark or score your shooting on a green coat target like this one. Here I got a score of 5/10. I had one flyer and had four shots low in the 3, that doesn't count at a KD.
I am really looking forward to the next KD. If you love shooting and would love to learn how shoot better and learn some history of the American Rifleman, then Project Appleseed is for you! For you southern Illinois folks, we have a shoot coming up in April at Marion You can look here to see about signing up!
Last week I mapped and soil sampled a farm that had been in CRP for many, many years. I think it has been in two sign ups, so about 20 years. There was also a 20 acre bean field across the road that was sampled as part of that farm. I pulled out three samples and took pictures of them to show the difference in an eroded clay knob in the CRP, slopping hill side in the CRP and semi flat area of the soybean field.
Below are the three pictures. The quiz is this……. Can you see the difference in drainage in the three pictures? Can you see the difference in OM in the three pictures? Can you see why this farm was in CRP and the other one was still farmed?
First the eroded clay knob in the CRP.
Next the slopping hill side in the CRP.
Last the Soybean field across the road.

I was able to live a dream last week south of Houston Texas, going hunting for feral hogs. But this was no ordinary hog hunt where you sit in a blind and wait for a single hog to come along, nor was it a trophy hunt. While there were hogs out there that would have been a trophy for some hunters, they were just wild pigs to us. No, our hunt was with Vertex Aviation Group as part of an aerial depreciation program to eliminate or remove wild or feral hogs in Texas.
Feral hogs in Texas, as well as other parts of the US, are tearing up farm land and residential neighborhoods with regularity. The damage they do in a short period of time is unbelievable Seeing that damage from the air is even more incredible. For those of us who remember having domesticated hogs in pastures, just multiply the wallows and damage by 100X and you get the picture.
My problem has been two-fold: I wanted to go on a hog hunt and shoot pigs, but I didn't want to pay out the nose for a "sit and wait" hunt to kill a single pig. There are a log of hunting clubs and lodges that offer boar hunts for trophy pigs and those didn't interest me. I kept reading about how bad the pig problem is becoming in areas of the country and how they were attempting to eradicate them but could not figure out why a hunt would cost so much money and more importantly why you were charged extra if you didn't kill a trophy. I am not a trophy hunter.
I had been in contact with an acquaintance and farmer from Indiana who also is a gun writer and blogger, Frank W James, about hog hunts, and he gave me some options. One of which was Vertex! After reading about Frank's hunt with Vertex and seeing their website and comments on their Facebook Page it became pretty obvious that Vertex fit the bill for the hunt I wanted to take.
Why Vertex? Really it was simple for this farm boy. The least important but playing a factor was that it was a hunt from a helicopter. I have never shot out of a helicopter so this shot up the excitement factor by 10x and would also allow me to learn a skill that I might not ever use again, but would allow me to mark it off my bucket list. Second on importance was that we got to shoot pigs, the plural of pig, meaning many, without a trophy requirement or penalty. Vertex supplies the firearms, Battle Rifle Company AR15/M4 platform 223 cal semi auto, and all the ammo as part of the hunt package. Again I liked this very much!
Plus Frank's experience and story did a lot to sell me on Vertex.
But the thing that sold me on Vertex was 40% all the above things and 60% the safety class requirement.
The safety class requirement was what really sold me on this hunt. No other service requires safety training to hunt with them. This was important to me for several reasons. First, it showed that they had my best interest at heart making sure that I didn't hurt myself, them, their equipment or those on the ground. Second it also showed me that they were serious about their jobs and about the service they provided to their landowners. Lastly, it also provided training on how the hunt would go, how to shoot and how to insure that we got the best bang for our paid hunt. With most of the staff of Vertex being former military, the safety culture is ingrained and is very evident in every deliberate action they take. I like that very much. I felt safe, had the up most confidence in Mike and his staff, and felt very comfortable and at ease the whole time I was in the chopper and around the firearms.
There is an art to safely handling an AR/M4 platform from a helo and Vertex covers this very well in their safety class. The hardest thing for me was the mag changes. I am very use to getting the rifle up in front of my face or "in my work space" to do mag changes and clear malfunctions. This is a big no no in a helo. Keep the muzzle pointed out the door and below the horizon. So all mag changes and malfunction drills take place on your lap. So there are a some extra hand movements while the rifle is grounded on your lap. Being very deliberate in every action insures you do it right and in a safe manner.
I enjoyed the safety class almost as much as I did the hunt.
But I enjoyed the hunt much more!
We hunted for three hours in a dual gunner configuration taking turns sitting front and back seat. Mike would fly over the wooded areas and scrub brush around the farm fields and pastures. The down wash and noise from the chopper would scare the pigs out of hiding and into the open where he would fly along side of them and then put us into position to shot them. And shoot we did!
Check out hunt videos here on their YouTube channel.
In our three hour hunt we scared up three groups of pigs that made it out into the open. The first group had over 20 hogs in it, the second group had upwards of 40 and and the last group had 11. Shooting from a helicopter that is moving at a moving target is hard but as the time went on it became easier to get a handle on. You are shooting behind the hogs as they run with is counter to how I grew up hunting quail and rabbits where you lead them. We were not the best shooters from the air by any stretch of the imagination, but we improved as the hunt went on. Mike, our pilot, coached us along during the hunt as well. LISTEN TO MIKE! You get better with every pass on the hogs and it more natural to shoot from the "lag" as it does to lead a bird or rabbit. After we got the hang of the "lag" we became more effective at putting rounds on target. As Scott and I recounted on the drive home, we killed in excess of 30 hogs that morning.
As part of our hunt package we also got a "Hero Video" which is a video shot during our hunt. It should arrive in a few weeks after they edit and sync the different camera angles. We can't wait for it to arrive to show it to friends and fellow hunters who have expressed an interest in going down to Houston to hunt with Vertex. Who knows, I may have to go back real soon and act as a guide for all these Southern Illinois folks who want to go on a helicopter pig hunt!
I give Vertex and our hog hunt three thumbs up out of two, 6 out of 5 stars and an eleven on a scale of 1 to ten for an outstanding lifetime memory!
A long and busy schedule of meetings in January is now over, thank goodness. I am worn out. I think I was on the road for meetings over half the month of January and into the first of February.
There were several good things I picked up that need attention in the near future. There is a lot of info that everyone might be interested in and I don't want to forget something, but I will.
Bryan Young and Larry Steckel have put on some great presentations on Palmer Amaranth ( short article intro to Palmer ) if you are not up to speed on this weed you had better get ready…….. the chemical management of this weed species is very important. If you get a chance to see one of these speakers, go to the meeting and learn about Palmer before you get it. There is also a good mode of action chart for management of resistant weeds that Bryan has been handing out: click here to access it.
Soybean size is going to be very large this year. You need to be aware of what seed size your getting and get the appropriate plate size to insure proper planting populations. This is industry wide and some are reporting shortages of plates in some areas……..you may have to do some calling to find them.
I have been in contact with some of you who have expressed interest in refining your management zones for either soil sampling or variable rate applications. I have been talking to, and have an initial agreement with, another consulting company to have access to a Veris tool (http://www.veristech.com/index.aspx) . Veris tools are used for making more accurate soil maps, mapping OM or pH for VRT or soil sampling. I am encouraging anyone interested in VR seeding to do some Veris EC maps to help guide this process. Our soil maps in So IL are not the greatest, and in some cases have not been updated in 40+ years. We can also do elevation mapping at the same time. If you are interested in this, please contact me so that I can put together as many acres as possible to get the best utilization of the tool.
Well here it is the first of February and the weather in January has been all over the board. We have now had three snow events but between the snows the temperatures have been almost to the upper 60′s in one case. So you leave the house with you winter and spring clothes depending upon how long you will be gone.
I took this picture on Sunday after a 40% chance of snow on Saturday night turned into a 2-3 inch snow event. It was down right cold with temps in the upper teens this after a Tuesday of short sleeve weather, high winds, down pours of rain and tornado watches and warnings.
This coming week we start off today with snow or rain shower, warm up to rain and possible severe weather on Thursday again followed by thunderstorms on Saturday and Sunday again with temps approaching 60 by the weekend.
Is it no wonder everyone is sick………….
Work is coming along nicely on the new office. It will be even better when we get lights in the shop!
In the recent past, I read a lot of books. I mean, back a couple years ago I was reading two or three books at a time. I would pick one up and read until my head got full then I would pick up another title unrelated to the one I just sit down and read on it until my head was full of that particular book. Then I would pick up the first book and finish it and then on to a third book before I finished the second and so it went from there. The last two years I have not read that much book wise. While there are a lot of titles I want to get to, I just don't have the time or more importantly the interest to read books the last couple of years.
I picked up a book between holidays on soil fertility called The Art of Balancing Soil Nutrients by William McKibben. Both the title and the author caught my eye. I had meet Bill with my early affiliation with the laboratory that performs most of my analysis some 20+ years ago. So, knowing the author and also knowing how using the phrase "soil balancing" gets an agronomist all shook up, so I thought I would give the book a look.
The basic description of the book on the Barnes and Noble website I found it on said "A practical guide to interpreting soil test results for farmers and other stewards of the earth wanting to understand what nutrients are available to plants and learn how to more effectively grow crops, turfgrass and other plants." Ok, pretty generic but it still didn't run me off yet.
Reading the Preface also yielded "I view the information contained in this book to be a starting point…." which I found refreshing because other books by other authors on "soil balancing" are either written from the absolute standpoint or are so far out in left field you can't read them.
So, based on the Preface alone, I threw down my $25 to give it a try. Heck, I might learn something, right?
So here is my book review.
The book is a basic introduction to soil testing and nutrient recommendations using Cation Exchange Capacity for the basis of both interpreting the soil test values as well as making the nutrient recommendation. McKibben talks about using both the basic cation saturation ratios (BCSR) and strategic level of available nutrients (SLAN) approach to balance the nutrients in the soil. He applies these methods to both low and high exchange capacity soils and explains how it differs based on CEC.
While only 8 chapters long, the book could be broken down into three sections: 1. Taking the soil sample and reviewing soil nutrients, 2. Balancing soils with low and high exchange capacities and 3. What I will call "other stuff", paste test, irrigation water and figuring out really high exchange soils. I must admit that the last three chapters didn't do much to hold my interest as we don't have any irrigation around here to speak of, and any very high exchange soils and my experiments with the paste test were pretty much useless several years ago. That doesn't mean I didn't pick something up out of those chapters, I just didn't spend a lot of time reviewing them.
Bill does an excellent job discussing and explaining soil nutrient balance in a way that even a beginner could understand. His examples are clear and concise which I liked very much. Bill shows examples of using a compromise between SLAN and BCSR to make a recommendation for nutrient amendments for the soil. I like this approach very much even though I lean more to SLAN than BCSR. He uses some "absolute" numbers for nutrient levels, esp. micro nutrients, which is fine but I find that one guys "desired values" are not necessary mine and don't believe that one should take these numbers to heart. Only you know your soils and soils reaction to amendments, don't take numbers out of a book as an absolute.
On a scale of 1-10 I give the book a solid 9 and highly recommend it to any agronomist as a basic introduction or refresher. It is by far the best book I have read for SLAN and BCSR soil testing and recommendations. It sticks to the title and premise of the book without going off in left field by having us use "magic dust", "alternative ag techniques" or hugging trees. It educates and does exactly what the Preface says: "…a starting point….", a very good foundation to begin refining your recommendations for your farm and soils.
Worth the time to read and the $25 to purchase.
At the end of 2012 I began testing an Apple Ipad with GIS Roam for pulling soil samples. Initial testing indicated that this platform and software is every-bit as good for GPS directed soil sampling and mapping as Farm Works or SMS.
There are several things I really like about the Ipad for this application. Fist it is very small and light so it doesn't bounce around on the ATV while sampling rough fields. Second it has a very readable screen in bright light conditions. But most important I can display the areal images as backgrounds while I am sampling. This isn't new, but with the cellular turned on, I can zoom in and out on the areal photos as well as see road maps etc.
GIS Roam is a great little program for the soil sampling. It allows you to do most of the same field mapping features as the other ag specific programs do and you can import and export shape files. The ability to import and export files comes with the addition of a purchased module or add on program. However GIS Roam itself is FREE and the module is only $10.
I will try to post more info on testing this program as I get back in the fields here in the next month and follow up on some of the mapping will do with it and show some screen shots.

Apart from those victories, what Raw or SummerSlam moment sticks out for you?
"I've had so many cool moments on Monday Night Raw. I remember when The Rock first came back and every time his music played everyone would go 'Aaaaah!' Well since they did that every time and I was getting overlooked by everyone - and I was the WWE champion at the time - I decided to dress up as The Rock and come out with the music.
"I thought people would know it was me from the beginning, but they were just so amazed that The Rock was there. I think Cena was getting beaten up and all of a sudden you hear 'If you smell...!' and everyone goes 'Aaaaah!' and all of a sudden I walk out like I was The Rock. Then there was another 'Aaaaah!' and then I took off the sunglasses thinking people will get it now... No! An even bigger eruption happened.

"Then I started walking down and people started getting it and then I beat the crap out of Cena. That was one of my highlights. I thought this is awesome... I messed with everybody."
If you could have a bout with anyone, who would it be?
"I would say The Rock. The reason I wanted to be a WWE Superstar was because of The Rock. I used to watch him in The Attitude Era. There was no-one more electrifying and no-one more must-see than The Rock. Seeing that I just always wanted to have a singles match with him.
"I had a tag match with him at a sold-out event at Madison Square Garden, which I was the main event in. I don't mean to brag about that but I sold out Madison Square Garden in two minutes. Note to self."
Cody Rhodes On The Rock and Brock Lesnar's recent returns: "Well, I mean, I walked into The Rock's dressing room at WrestleMania and thanked him for the number of people who were there that night and the number of people who ordered it on pay per view. I have such respect for The Rock. And now with the return of Brock it's completely different than The Rock. But for me, it kind of just made me angry and not in a way like, 'Oh, blast. They get to be on another pay per view.' More in a way that I'm out there working. I never take a day off. I never plan on taking a day off. I'm so in love with the wrestling business I couldn't see myself going away. And these guys have that ability to come back in because they have that presence, they have that following and are just automatically accepted as superstars again. So there's something to learn and something to be kind of irritated from that whole Attitude Era generation, but I get it from both the good and the bad."
WOW Cody is the rock'fans

they're usually okay if you haven't done one recently from any staples deals. I think that's how it goes. It's one per household and they keep track. At least they used too. Haven't used mcafee in so long, I don't really know. It's terrible and I just uninstall it from every computer I buy anyway.
How is McAfee rebate? 1 per year?
I am curious I would love to get a copy of Malwarebytes and throw away Mcafee like people have said the thing is do you get 2 separate keys? Actually checked into it so this is an OEM version and the way I know Windows its tied up to one PC aka motherboard? I saw there is a retail version which usually you can move to another computer without the problem. If I am wrong what exactly is the differences from OEM vs Retail on Malwarebytes.
Also checked on newegg details: "This OEM System Builder Channel software requires the assembler to provide end user support from the manufacture software and can be transferred to another computer once it is installed. To acquire manufacture software with support provided by manufacture please see our full package "Retail" product offerings." It seems the OEM can be transferred but some claim it can't be (saw an older thread in slickdeals) so can it be transferred or is it stuck to one computer?

An Interview with author Tracy Shawn by David Starkey
Question: Saylor Crawmore, the protagonist of THE GRACE OF CROWS, is deeply anxious about almost everything. Why did you find her anxiety so compelling?
Tracy Shawn: I have suffered from severe anxiety myself and wanted to write a story that others could relate to, learn from, and ultimately gain perspective and a grounded kind of hope from, as well.

Question: To what extent—if any—is Judge Norcross based on you? Is the trial in THE HANGING JUDGE based at all on any case or cases you've presided over?
Michael Ponsor: The trial is based generally on my experience as a judge, and my experience presiding over a complete death penalty trial. Judge Norcross, however, is not me. He is less experienced than I am as a judge now, and than when I presided over my capital case. He is also, in many ways, a nicer person than I am.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, reminds investors in Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. ("Nu Skin" or the "Company") (NYSE: NUS) of the March 24, 2014 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action lawsuit filed against Nu Skin, and certain executives.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120119/MM38856LOGO)
A complaint has been filed on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Nu Skin securities between October 25, 2011 and January 15, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period") in the District of Utah.
The complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws with respect to its disclosures concerning its business, operations, and prospects.
Specifically, the action alleges that throughout the Class Period the Company and senior executives made a series of false and misleading statements concerning pyramid selling schemes the Company had engaged in in its Mainland China operations.
On January 15, 2014, a leading Chinese newspaper issued an investigative story suggesting that Nu Skin is an illegal pyramid scheme in China and utilizes unlawful and immoral business practices violating Chinese law. Following this news, the Company's stock declined an additional $21.24 per share, or over 15%, to close at $115.23 per share on January 15, 2014 on heavy volume.
Further, on January 16, 2014, the Company disclosed that Chinese government regulators were investigating its business practices.

Congratulations Rhode Island!
Rhode Island is the first state to have 100% of their Federal delegation supporting our legislation. A special thanks to Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, Senator Jack Reed, Rep. David Cicilline and Rep. James Langevin. We appreciate your support.
UPDATE: Linda Sanchez and Louise Roybal-Allard are now cosponsors of HJ Res 43. As Progressives we should all be outraged that of the 15 members of the Progressive Caucus from California, there are 5 (3) who have not co-sponsored Representative Rob Andrews legislation, HJ Res 43, removing the deadline for the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. Unacceptable. They are well aware of the legislation and we must alert them to this fact.

Peter Goldring has served the people of Edmonton East as their Member of Parliament for almost 16 years since being first elected on June 2, 1997. He has been a strong voice for the riding in Ottawa, bringing national attention to constituents' concerns on many issues, such as Canadian unity, veterans' affairs, housing affordability, health care and criminal justice.
In 2012 Peter was Parliamentary co-chair for the "Ride to Remember," an annual international Holocaust remembrance motorcycle ride which was held in Canada for the first time. On Peter's suggestion the hundreds of motorcycles would ride from Washington, D.C. to Parliament Hill for a ceremony, then onto Canadian Forces Base Trenton to join with 4,000 other riders from the Heroes Highway Ride to Polson Pier in Toronto. Peter was instrumental in organizing Parliament Hill and both Trenton events with the theme "Never Again." The event brought together cabinet ministers, diplomats, Christian clergy, Jewish rabbis and hundreds of bikers who came from Canada, the US, the UK, Australia and Israel, as well as Col. Sean Friday, Commander at CFB Trenton and other members of the military.
In 2006 Peter led a Parliamentary group to Haiti for the election, but also to examine the state of Canada's foreign aid projects. He was discouraged at the utter lack of progress in 10 years of Canadian aid and reported his findings in a 25-page report to the government. Peter subsequently put a motion forward in the Foreign Affairs Committee to study Haiti, which was accepted and resulted in an extensive committee report.
In December 2010, following the earthquake, Peter's submitted a motion again to re-study Haiti, which was accepted by the Foreign Affairs Committee. In preparation for the study Peter travelled with Engineers Without Borders to learn best practices at Canadian aid projects in Ghana and to learn from the people of Ghana what might help the people of Haiti.
Serving on the Foreign Affairs Committee from 2006-2011, Peter was involved in the preparation and writing of reports on Canada's role in Afghanistan; the Americas; democracy development; studies on human rights in China, Cuba, Haiti, Sri Lanka and Iran; a look at the corporate social responsibility of Canadian mining companies operating overseas; the implications and ramifications of the referendum in Sudan and the effectiveness and viability of public service partnerships between nations.
It was at Peter's instigation that the Foreign Affairs Committee travelled to Ukraine in early 2012 to study the rule of law, democracy and prosperity in that country, producing a report on the relationship between the two countries and how Canadian policies can play a role in strengthening democracy and increasing prosperity in Ukraine.
Other Parliamentary Roles
In 1997 Peter Goldring was appointed the Official Opposition Chief Critic for Veterans Affairs and a member of the Shadow Cabinet, a position that he held for more than three years. He served as Deputy Critic for Intergovernmental Affairs (Canadian Unity) in 1997-98 (Party leader Preston Manning was the Chief Critic) and in June 1999, was appointed to head up the Alberta MP Caucus Election Readiness, a position he held until the federal election in November 2000. In April 2000, Peter was appointed as the Official Opposition Housing Critic and in August of that year was appointed Deputy Critic for National Defence and Public Works. In June 2001 he was appointed Critic for Public Works. From 1997 to late 2001, Peter served as a member of the Standing Committee on National Defence and Veterans Affairs (SCONDVA), and then was elected Vice-Chair of the committee in early 2001.
As Joint Chair of the Standing Joint Committee on the Library of Parliament, Peter took the lead in a study of the role of the Parliamentary Budget Officer, which led to a rare unanimous Senate and House of Commons approval of the report generated by the committee. At one point, when Peter was the only one of the Joint Chairs in Ottawa, the Speakers of the Senate and House asked for a special meeting with him to discuss the situation and to ask him to call for further meetings about the Parliamentary Budget Officer. Peter told them no, the Committee's job was done, that the mandate was accomplished, the report was generated by the committee, approved unanimously by all parties in the House and Senate, and it was now up to the Speakers themselves to deal with the issue and recommendations of the report.
Peter is active in numerous Parliamentary Associations, including Canada-Europe, Canada-Chile, Canada-Argentina, Canada-Cuba, Canada-Mexico, Canada-Azerbaijan, Canada-Kazakhstan and the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, while serving as the Vice-Chair of the Canada-Caribbean, Vice-Chair of Canada-Poland and Vice-Chair (and former Chair) of the Canada-Ukraine Parliamentary Friendship Group (which had a membership of more than 145 Members of Parliament and Senators under his leadership). He also has served as a member of several inter-parliamentary organizations, including the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe Parliamentary Assembly (OSCEPA), the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, the Canada-Europe Parliamentary Association and the Inter-Parliamentary Forum of the Americas (FIPA).
Working On The National Stage
Peter's many political successes have included the resolution of a number of long-standing veterans' issues during his time as Veterans Affairs Critic from 1997 to 2000: the Hong Kong Veterans Slave Labour concerns; the Merchant Navy Veterans concerns; the Lt. Col. McCrae Medals issue; suspected depleted uranium health issues; the major structural repair of the Vimy Memorial; the return of the Unknown Soldier to Canada; Gulf War Syndrome awareness; and the Ortona Christmas with a follow-up life-size bronze monument – the 'Price of Peace' – now on a permanent world stage in Ortona, Italy.
In 2003 Peter launched the "Cattle Drive to Parliament Hill" – a farm awareness campaign in which he led a cattle truck transport in his radio equipped outrider vehicle, with his wife Lorraine, more than 9,000 kilometres, speaking at 34 functions in 17 days, from British Columbia to Parliament Hill.
Peter has worked extensively for the rights of the victims of notorious pedophile Karl Toft and his associates at the Kingsclear Training School in New Brunswick. His work led to a $1.5 million investigation by the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP into an alleged cover-up of RCMP involvement. The investigation led to changes being made to improve RCMP investigative methods.
Representing Canada
In 2003, Peter took on the Turks and Caicos debate, which in effect was a call for greatly enhanced foreign trade and renewed development opportunities for Canada in partnership with others from a Turks and Caicos platform in the Caribbean Rim region. His efforts were recognized by Conservative Party leader, Stephen Harper, who appointed him as Foreign Affairs Critic for the Caribbean.
He has continued to work to facilitate closer trade ties between Canada and Eastern Europe as well as Canada and the Caribbean.
On April 23, 1999 (and on many occasions since), Peter was the first Member of Parliament to call the 1932-33 planned famine (called by Ukrainians the Holodomor) inflicted by Stalin on Ukraine in which eight million perished, a genocide – a fact that has since been accepted by Parliament.
In 2004 Peter was asked by then Foreign Affairs Critic, Stockwell Day to represent the Conservative Party as an observer in the run-off presidential election in Ukraine on November 21. This historical event grew into the "Orange Revolution," during which Peter stayed in Ukraine after the election to monitor and report from the streets of the revolution to international media on the crisis, while it was reported that Russian troops in Ukrainian military uniforms surrounded Kyiv waiting for the call to move in and suppress the revolution. He stayed until the Supreme Court of Ukraine ruled ten days later for a new election and returned to Ukraine as a parliamentary observer for that December 26, 2004 election. He has returned seven times since, taking part in every presidential and parliamentary election, including the most recent, in October 2012.
In 2006 he was selected to represent the Government of Canada on a special Foreign Affairs Canada fact finding and election monitoring mission to Haiti. He has since served as an election monitor for the Organization of American States (OAS) in Guyana and with the OSCE in elections in Ukraine (six times), Georgia (twice), Azerbaijan and Albania. For the 2012 Parliamentary elections in Ukraine he was part of the CANADEM observation team and during which he investigated the influence of religion on the electoral outcome in a lengthy report to the Government of Canada. In all he has served as an international election monitor 13 times.
At the 2008 OSCE Parliamentary Assembly in Astana, Kazakhstan, Peter spoke out strongly and forcedly at length against Russia's delegates attempts to water down or have withdrawn Ukraine's Holodomor Resolution which spoke of the truth of Stalin's complicity in the planned famine of 1932-33. The majority of the assembly representing 56 countries ultimately agreed passing the resolution in its entirety. The Ukrainian Parliamentary delegation was overjoyed at the support given by Peter and the positive outcome of the joint effort.
He has also represented Canada at meetings of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly (in Ukraine, Lithuania, Greece, Kazakhstan and Serbia) and the Standing Committee of Parliamentarians of the Arctic Region (SCPAR) in Ilulissat, Greenland in 2009 and again in Komi, Russia in 2011, speaking forcefully on issues of concern to Canada.
In the Community
Peter has been very active in raising awareness of affordable housing issues and resolutions. In 2000 he published a book on the matter called – "Housing Affordability: An Edmonton Concern and a National Challenge." In 2008 he wrote a sequel – "Housing Affordability: Still An Edmonton Concern and a National Challenge." Peter believes in challenging convention in a rational dispassionate manner to encourage better use of funds to help those most in need. He wears his social conscience on his sleeve day by day, and says we must help those that cannot help themselves, at the same time helping as many as possible to develop their own self-worth and independence, giving them the opportunity to grow in society with a hand up not just a hand out. He was also instrumental in saving the McCauley Community Hockey Rink, the only full-size rink in the inner city, from demolition by the social non-profit housing industry.
In 2008 Peter was unanimously chosen by his Edmonton caucus colleagues as the federal government representative to serve on the City of Edmonton Leadership Committee to End Homelessness. While totally supportive of the effort to help those in need, he advocated for the consideration of cost-effective private sector solutions and has continued to work with private and non-profit sector developers who desire to develop and provide affordable rental housing.
In February 2009 he took up the cause of the private sector, which wanted to develop affordable rental housing. After 65 interventions and 18 months or promotion in Ottawa, at the Alberta Legislature and Edmonton City Hall the project was approved: The "Mayfair Village," 237 units of affordable rental housing was developed by ProCura, saving taxpayers $40 million over comparable non-profit projects. Subsequently Peter was informed by the Alberta Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs that this "Mayfair Village model" of efficiency was now being encouraged for many more projects, at great taxpayer savings.
Since late 2011 Peter has been in consultation with the Toronto Housing Authority, which manages 50,000 units of social non-profit rental housing, to study and develop a large-scale national major city rental housing policy that would be in keeping with the Constitution of Canada federal- provincial distribution of powers referring to rental housing policy. His initial drafts have been well received by the Toronto Housing Authority as being progressively insightful and encouraging
Peter has been recognized on numerous occasions for his contributions to the Edmonton East community, Alberta, Canada and the world. He received a plaque from the Mayor of Ortona, Italy, for his work bringing about the "Christmas in Ortona" dinner and the life-size monument "The Price of Peace" by artist Robert Surette in 1998. He also was presented the Queen's Jubilee Medal in 2002, the Alberta Centennial Medal in 2005, the Ukrainian Community Award in 2005 in recognition and appreciation of outstanding contribution and support to the Ukrainian community in Alberta during his years of public service, the "Tak" award for his work in Ukraine during the Orange Revolution and was awarded a certificate for his contribution in Ukraine by Prime Minister Paul Partin. He also has received awards from the Loyal Edmonton Regiment for his work with veterans, and another from the Korea War veterans association, numerous community awards and three homelessness awards, the last, a "Roof" Award for his work on the City of Edmonton Leadership Committee to End Homelessness. In 2012 he was presented the Queen's Diamond Jubilee medal for his continuing service to his community and country.
Personal Life
Peter was born in Toronto in 1944 and lived in Ontario and Quebec for 28 years (and still owns property in Ontario) before settling in Edmonton in 1972. As a successful businessman, Peter has extensive community and business ties in Alberta, Ontario and Quebec. He was an advocate of Canadian Unity long before his political career began and has been successful in standing up for Quebecers to help defend against separation and earlier weak federal representation.
Peter's first job was in Oshawa, Ontario but then served with the Royal Canadian Air Force from 1962 to 1965 where he received electronics and police training.
After his military service he worked out of the Toronto marketing office of Unelco Systems Ltd., an electrical systems manufacturer, based in Pointe Claire, Quebec, travelling extensively in Ontario for many years. In 1972, he was transferred to Edmonton to open and manage Unelco's new Alberta office. In 1973 Peter ran a successful campaign to have smoke detectors mandated in Edmonton's apartment buildings, the first city in Canada to do so. In 1974, after completing his commitment to work two years for Unelco in Alberta, he left to start his own business, Systems by Sentron (Canada) Ltd. Sentron was a supplier and manufacturer of electrical systems for thousands of buildings in western Canada. Over the next 23 years, he built it into a successful electrical system manufacturing, distribution and servicing company. He sold the last component of his company to run for public office in 1997.
Peter has been a member of the Associated Commercial Travellers Association since 1972. He also served on the Alberta Government Suppression Systems Regulatory Development Committee and as Vice-President of the Alberta Sound Contractors Association.
Peter founded the Edmonton Chapter of the Montreal based Special Committee for Canadian Unity, after travelling to Quebec City for the 1995 referendum vote and being appalled at the level Canadian unity and pride had sunk to. Following that suspenseful evening, an epiphany, he flew back to Edmonton, determined to add his voice to Canadian Unity efforts. The possibility of a Canadian break-up drove Peter to rethink his life, his priorities, his family responsibility and plunge into National politics. He then succeeded to be elected in his first election contest in 1997 on a platform to support Canadian unity, a strong united Canada of equal citizens. He subsequently was re-elected in 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2011.
He has worked tirelessly over the years in Quebec for veterans' rights, language rights and constitutional rights – on his own and as unity deputy critic for the Reform Party standing up for what is right at a time when no other Member of Parliament would.
Peter believes that in sitting as an Independent he is better able to represent the views of all of his constituents and all Canadians on the Canadian Unity file, unencumbered by party politics.
In 2012, leading up to the election of the Parti Quebecois government in Quebec, Peter called and asked lawyer Brent Tyler if there would be a will re-constitute the Special Committee for Canadian Unity (SCCU). Peter had worked on Canadian unity issues, having been in Quebec City for the razor thin referendum vote of 1995 and then with the SCCU in 1996, before becoming involved in politics, founding and leading the western Canadian branch and organizing a campaign to send a group from Edmonton called "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" to join a special "unity train" on the anniversary date of the referendum to demonstrate support across Canada for Canadian unity from Montreal to Quebec City. A unity banner was signed by hundreds at Vernon Barford School, then on board the train and then returned to the school to great excitement at an assembly with Member of Parliament Ian McClelland. A unity song was composed and sung by Allan Barbe at McGill University, on board the train at the main function at the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City.
His hobbies and interests include hunting, fishing, target shooting, boating and he has motor homed extensively throughout North America. Peter has a strong interest in and belief that Canada's history at war and in peace has not been factually taught in Canada's schools. He says Canada's history, truthfully told, would help foster Canadian pride and unity.
Peter has been married to Lorraine for more than 38 years. They have two daughters, Corinna and Kristina, son-in-law Tom and three granddaughters, Katelin, Alexandra and Eleanor.
In the 2009 riding nomination Peter received the overwhelming majority support (over 80%) of Conservative members in Edmonton East to once again represent them in the next election. In the past 16 years Peter has run successfully undefeated in seven nominations and six elections. In the May 2, 2011election he received the highest level of support of his six election victories, 53%, which is also the highest level of support in 31 years since Bill Yurko's 54% support in 1980.
Peter is the second-longest serving of the 17 Members of Parliament who have represented Edmonton East since the riding was created in 1917. His 16 years of service is second only to that of William Skoreyko, who was Member of Parliament for Edmonton East from 1958-1979.

When Should You Tell You're Pregnant? (VIDEO)
You've finally got that exciting news you've been waiting on…the plus sign showing that you are pregnant. But, what are the negatives of announcing right away that you are expecting? Trying to keep a secret for more than three minutes can be hard for some of us. Now try three months. Keeping this a quiet may be harder than making this baby. But should you keep it a secret? Why do some wait and others don't?
See what Angela says and share with us what you have to say.

Yeah, I am back from leave and ready to smash some metaphorical faces!
MrKleen was kind enough to send my his custom made warrior workout. And while reading it I was thinking to myself, "That doesn't seem so bad" After completing day 1 I have changed my stance to, "Kleen is a Genius" Because my ass is seriously kicked. Anyway, anyone who has followed my logs knows how this is, I should be moving to a new base with younger people on it, so I may get into some shenanigans while in Iraq still this time. We shall see :P
There is no goal for this routine, it is going to kick my ass and make me look hotter and lift heavier, which is the constant goal in my mind when working out and when not working out.
My Diet in a nutshell:
Meal 1: Either 6 eggs or a ham/cheese/pepper omellette with apple oatmeal and fruit with some cottage cheese mixed in there, as well as PB in the oatmeal, and 2x v8 + 1 litre water. Roughly 1K cals
Meal 2: All wheat wrap, 2 slices provolone, 2 slices AMURRICAN!, some mustard, 2 slices roast beef, 4 slices ham. 1K Cals.
Meal 3: Whatever the leanest meat is, x2. 2 servings rice, brocolli if they hav it, and 2 v8 and 1 liter water. Roughly 700 cals?
Meal 4: Same sandwich as meal 2, 1K cals.
Meal 5: I sometimes skip this meal, or eat some crap like chips or something instead. When I eat it is the identical to meal 3. About 700 cals.
Rough Macro:
300G Protein, probably slightly higher, as I'm not counting my protein I drink.
200G Carbohydrates, maybe slightly higher, only carbs come from rice and oatmeal though. I don't count fruit/veg carbs, negligible anyway.
50-100G Fat, only fat intake is from PB and the inherent fat in the red meat.
My Supplements:
Fish oil
Bulk cissus
ACV (Ran out of my home bottle so I need some more)
Pre-wo of the month, currently vasocharge
Lipo Burn sometimes
Slin-Sane/P-Slin/Recompadrol whichever I have
Green tea extract...need a scale so I dont kill myself taking it
Random other crap such as:
more randoms etc.
Wakeup: 2x M-1D, 1x MMv3, Pre-WO, BCAAs
After Gym: Protein/cissus, fish oil, optimen
~10AM: 1x MMv3, maybe some fish oil
Lunch: 2x M-1D, fish oil
~4PM: 1x MMv3, maybe fish oil
Dinner: Maybe fish oil
Before Bed: 1x MMv3, 2x M-1D, other randoms
I pop fish oil slightly randomly throughout the day with food, so no real schedule there. Maybe take 10-14G per day.
I randomly take swigs of ACV also.
The random list is really fairly large but I dont keep track of it, most of it is various herbs from NOW that are cheap and scientifically proven to do something. But if I run out I normally forget to buy again type stuff.
And now, the workout!
OK check it, the basic theory behind this workout is: full body 3x a week, strip sets (drop sets) to failure, heavy weights, motivation.
You basically do X amount of exercises, 1 warmup, 2 work sets, and then 2 drop sets dropping about 20-25% of the weight for each until failure. Rest one minute between sets, except the drop sets (which I forgot, but figured since they were to failure that I wouldn't rest, will have to look at the write-up Kleen sent) Oh yeah weight intensity is 6-8 reps, so heavy weights. This first week is just getting back in the flow, after not working out seriously for about 3 weeks (vacation and crappy hotel gyms)
Here she is, in this format
Warmup set --- working set 1 --- working set 2 - drop set 1 - drop set 2
Day 1:
Of course I did random rotator cuff stuff for 10 minutes or so before hand, I always do now. Obviously the DB weights are per hand.
W: 40x8 --- Set 1: 60x8 --- Set 2: 60x7 - Drop 1: 45x5 - Drop 2: 30x15
W: 50x5 --- Set 1: 70x8 --- Set 2: 70x8 - Drop 1: 50x5 - Drop 2: 30x15
W: 25x5 --- Set 1: 35x8 --- Set 2: 35x6 - Drop 1: 25x5 - Drop 2: 15x8
W: 20x5 --- Set 1: 25x8 --- Set 2: 25x6 - Drop 1: 15x5 - Drop 2: 12x8
W: 180x5 --- Set 1: 270x8 --- Set 2: 270x8 - Drop 1: 180x10 - Drop 2: 90x15
W: 17x6 --- Set 1: 44x6 --- Set 2: 44x6 - Drop 1: 26x6 - Drop 2: 17x6
-Lunges were done with KG kettlebells (converted), and 2 lunges (1 each leg) is 1 rep
That's it for today, I typed this whole damn thing up at work where all my sexy photos are stored, and lo and behold the internet crashed and I lost the whole thing. This is a fairly accurate recreation though, which I will paste into a word doc before I click submit, because if it doesnt go through I just wont make a log lol. Lots of typing for this initial post o.O
In addition to the routine above I randomly do sets of pushups ranging from 20-50 throughout the day, same with situps, I also do pullups on the door frame every time I go to piss, with the hopes that a hot woman who is lost (only old officers work in my building) will walk by and swoon.
FYI I love you guys!
"I am NOT an alcoholic. Alcoholics have a drinking problem. I ain't got no problem drinking!!"

subbed bro
In for the piss ups LMAO
In on it...
I need to get Kleen to send me a copy of that work out... Getting bored with the 5x5 and need to get MOTIVATED with a change up.
Vikings? Legendary Thread? Hot Chicks? F- the log, this thread already has everything!
"I am legally blind and if I can Squat,deadlift and over all get myself to the gym then anyone can get their a$$ in gear and get strong!!" - malleus25

RcB Since 09-06-2011 20:55 EST, Post 49
You have my attention, now I expect you to live up to that legendary thread you sew your uniform with .
If my direct and cynical approach bothers you, just ignore it. I'm just saying what you need to hear ;).
Subbarooni bro... I draw the line at strippers
Working on living
Subbed. This is the real deal! I'm doing second phase. I have a partner which is perfect as I timed his sets and they are 50-55 seconds.. On drop sets I sometimes start on the 2nd drop to keep moving. I love the low DOMS as well, the cardio effect, the fact it forces you to push beyond your limits and call upon the inner beast..I dont leave the gym w/o feeling I earned this one!
Do your thing Votum, subbed!
This looks intense. May have to try this one out. Only 2 working sets then only 2 drops?
Funny thing is, I typed pissups and had to correct it
Shoot him a PM
BUT, we need to add MOAR!
I know, I am going to post it everywhere lol
Oh I will!
Well...if there are any real life females in this thread...they will be hookers, because I don't know where to find strippers here
Welcome mate!
I was busted today...tomorrow is a run, my legs will be sore for the next day hehe. I agree though, walking home from the gym I was feeling like crap, but right now DOMS is super mild, but I can feel the burn of a worked muscle
2 drops to failure o.O I don't know if you are supposed to rest, I forgot and just decided not too
Looks fantastic!

Westhaven Kids Receive Special Christmas Treat

Westhaven Community Kids Receive Special Christmas Treat
December 15, 2012
Children in the Westhaven community received a special Christmas treat Saturday afternoon.
The kids received some early Christmas gifts at the neighborhood's community center. Westhaven partnered with students at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business. Organizers say it's another way to give back to the community and to bring kids holiday cheer.
"It's very important for them to have an opportunity to see that other people in the community like students from Darden are interested in them just having a great holiday season," said event organizer Carla Manno.
Santa Claus made an appearance and spent time listening to toy requests.
The group handed out 170 gifts.

Squabbles over the rates and rights online radio should pay highlights a fundamental problem: the music industry is broken.
The music industry has become that annoying dysfunctional family you don't want to hang out with. Think Everybody Loves Raymond, but not funny.The latest episode: infighting among online radio stations, artists and labels over royalty rates and who should pay what to whom and for how much.
For two years, Internet radio webcasters negotiated with artists on rates and last month the parties reached a set of agreements that essentially sets royalty rates based on a site's size.
Across the web, it was declared that Internet radio had been saved. Listeners thought for a split second that perhaps the fractured music business had reached digital détente. And just maybe, fans thought, executives could focus on more important things, like making great music and figuring out how to grow the industry. More

Hello!I'm a science geek and history junkie, which explains the slightly schizophrenic nature of my writing–my short stories are mostly SF and fantasy while my novels are all (so far) historical fiction. My most recent full-length novel is Selene of Alexandria a tale of ambition, power, love and redemption set in AD 412 Alexandria, Egypt. Science and history also feed my passion for archaeology. My idea of a great vacation? "Cleaning dirt," hauling rocks and washing pottery. In the past I've worked as a lifeguard, paralegal, systems analyst, HR Executive, and college professor; but my hardest job, by far, is that of mother. What will you find on this site?
