No-Till Continues to Grow
Like others associated with no-till, Lessiter gave the credit for growth to those early adopters and the farmers who followed in their footsteps. "We gave them the ingredients, but the farmer wrote his own recipe," he said. "The thing with no-till is you can have two guys across the road from each other, each doing no-till his way, maybe one with coulters and one without. They both make it work, but neither could be successful the other way."
Lessiter noted that when Roundup Ready crops hit the market, no-till took off again. With precision ag and other tools available today and the economic benefits firmly understood, he doesn't see the trend slowing down. "When you are talking 10,000 to 20,000 acre operations, those guys don't want to make multiple trips," said Lessiter. "With a single pass, you don't want overlaps or skips of chemicals, seed or fertilizer. With precision technologies, you have controlled traffic. You can strip till in the fall, build berms and apply fertilizer and come right back to the berm in the spring."
Long-term no-till produces soil with strong aggregation and increased structure. The proliferation of fungi in the soil produces glomalin, which acts as a binder, creating soil structure. Some things don't change, like attitudes toward no-till, pointed out Lessiter. "Many machinery companies make one planter that fits any system, simply modifying it for no-till. Most don't make a planter specifically for no-till," he said. "Chemical companies and ag retailers continue to be important supporters of no-till. Syngenta has been a sponsor of our No-Tillage Conference for all 21 years and Bayer CropScience has been a sponsor for 14 years."
Lessiter is quick to recognize the role ag retailers have played, but points to more they could be doing, including sponsoring field days and plot tours. CTIC sees ag retailers as playing a pivotal role in assisting farmers who haven't made the transition to no-till.
"Ag retailers are critical in advancing the adoption of no-till systems," said Watts. "There are some excellent examples of retailers helping their customers adopt successful conservation tillage systems. However, we need more doing it. Ag retailers certainly have the expertise in soil health and biology to encourage people leaning toward no-till. I think they have more influence than they might imagine."
Karen Scanlon, executive director, CTIC, cited a recent program funded by the USDA designed to encourage and support farmers making the transition to no-till. She said it identified important aspects of successful transitions that could be put into practice by retailers.

How our brains are connected
Our brains are wired to allow us to read each other's minds, to feel each other's person.
Isaiah 43:1-7; Acts 8:14-17; Luke 3:15-17, 21-22
Until now I never appreciated the beautiful message of this week's Old Testament passage. God's promises to Israel—to not be drowned by water or burned by fire—make this text almost as comforting to its readers as the 23rd psalm.
As I grow older, I'm increasingly scared of heights. But there I was with my four-year-old in front of a three-story water slide.
I am not squeamish about most animals or insects. But snakes are a different story.
The hidden message in many politicians' campaign speeches and ads is this: "Be afraid. Be very afraid."
Two Sundays ago, my congregation watched as pillars of smoke and flame spoiled the view of Pike's Peak from our sanctuary windows. After that, our city—Colorado Springs—experienced mass evacuations that had people gathering a few possessions and heading into smoke-choked streets to hotels, shelters and other people's homes.
In the chaotic days that followed, I sat down to prepare a sermon. I didn't know where it would be delivered.
The terror of the dark unknown
Anxiety has a way of turning otherwise faithful Christians into foxhole atheists. I'm too busy worrying to pray.
Colossians 3:1-4; Matthew 28:1-10
Rarely are cemeteries as peaceful as they seem. My boyhood friends visited them by night to consult with spirits—86-proof spirits, as I recall. Sometimes we'd glimpse young couples having soulful, breathy talks among the tombstones.

"Owww! Mother fucker! That fucking hurts, you asshole." I rubbed
my arm where Jace had just bitten me. "What the fuck is it with
you and biting. I swear to god, you've got some freaky ass fetish
or something. You left teeth marks!" I twisted my arm so I could
see the bite better. I was probably going to have another bruise.
"Fucker" "One of these days your going to draw blood. And then
I'm just gonna have to kick your ass."
Jace laughed. He always laughed at my threats. "Tough guy. The
day you kick my ass, is the day I suck your dick." Jace shook his
head, his wet hair sending cold drops of water all over me.
It was my turn to laugh. "I think that's why you bite me. Cuz I
won't let you suck me." I gave Jace a strong shove sending him
falling backwards onto my bed and raced off to the bathroom. "You
better be ready by the time I'm done with my shower!"
"Ready for what? To suck it?" He yelled from my room
"No idiot! For school, ya perv. You need a girlfriend, you're
starting to sound a little desperate."
I closed the door to the bathroom, the warmth from his shower not
quite gone yet. I rubbed a clear swath across the steamy mirror
and glared balefully at myself. You need a girlfriend? Smooth. I
gave myself the finger and turned on the shower, stripping out of
my pajama bottoms. You need a girlfriend? What the hell is wrong
with you. It was the last thing I wanted. Every time he had a
girlfriend, I was in complete misery. I hung my head under the
hot spray of the shower.
"Seriously? Again? I am so hating this song? Jace reached for the
stereo but I grabbed his hand away from the volume control.
"Nooooo. I love this song!" I raised my voice and sang
I'll say that I hate a song, then you'll go request it the whole
night long
Some people say it's so wrong, but even when we fight
Girl, you turn me on
We make up and we break up all the time
We're like na na na
Then we're line yeah yeah yeah
Always like na na na
Then we're like yeah yeah yeah
"You're so gay." Jace laughed as he got the better of me and
turned downed the volume. "That song is gay. One Directions is
I looked at him with utter disgust on my face. "You know
nothing, John Snow."
"Hahahaha. Just cuz you quote Game of Thrones to me doesn't
change my mind." He yanked his backpack off the floorboard and
grabbed the door handle. I'll see you in history." And then he
was gone, dashing through the parking lot and up the steps
throwing a few waves to friends as he disappeared. I sighed and
grabbed my own backpack from the backseat. Fuck!
I didn't see her standing there, but when I opened the door,
there she was, seeming ethereal, almost translucent, the early
morning sunlight glancing off of her. Her long dark hair shifted
in the breeze, her eyes, the darkest brown I'd ever seen, seemed
to look right into me.
"Oh. Excuse me." I was startled. I tried to walk around her,
but she reached a hand out and grabbed my wrist. The urge to
pull away slipped from me as I stood in front of her, lost in her
gaze. You would have thought when she leaned it to kiss me I
would have pulled away. But I couldn't I tried, or at least I
wanted to pull away. But her lips pressed against mine and then
I had no control over anything. I kissed her back. It was
amazing. Like the best kiss I could possibly ever imagine. And
imagine I did, but it wasn't her I was kissing but Trystan. I
felt his lips, smelled his scent, strong and overwhelming, felt
his hand at the back of my neck pulling me tight against him,
felt him pressed against me, felt his excitement at the kiss.
The moment was overpowering and when she pulled away, and she had
to because I didn't want to let go of her, didn't even know that
I was holding on to her/him, one arm pressed against the small of
her back, the other at the back of her/his head, fingers twined
through her/his hair. It left me breathless. She quirked a
smile at me as she pulled away and broke contact. I didn't even
realize I had dropped my backpack, but I bent to pick it up, when
I stood she was gone. I could still smell Tristan, his cologne
filling my senses. I looked around dumbfounded, curious as to
what had just happened. I heard the bell ring and noticed there
was no other students in the parking lot, no one any where in
sight. Just me standing alone, except for the security guard who
walked in my direction.
"You need to get inside." His stance was authoritative.
"Did you see a girl just now?" I glanced around again, certain
she had to be here somewhere.
He smirked. Like it was one of the most natural questions in the
world. "She's probably inside, like everyone else, loverboy.
Everyone, except you."
I shook my head, almost blurting out I'm gay. But habit kept me
from saying anything. I looked down, trying to look embarrassed
and then headed towards the steps to the school. I gave a quick
glance back and saw him looking around, as if maybe he did see
someone else. I reached up and itched at my neck and pulled my
hand away, feeling a slickness. I gaped down at the site of
blood on my fingers. Reaching up again I felt a sudden
stinging sensation. Oh my god, she bit me. Inside, I rushed to
the closest restroom and examined my neck in the mirror. There
was a smear of blood on my neck, but that was all. I wiped at it
with a wet paper towel. under the blood, my neck looked normal.
What the fuck?
POV: Trystan
Biology class always put me to sleep. Okay, class in general,
put me to sleep. There was a problem with that. I dream of
Jace all the time. Almost every night if I were to be honest.
It's sorta baffling because we spend most of our time together,
so I can't imagine why my imagination needed any more time with
him, but apparently left to its own devices, it's Jace 24/7, on
every channel. They weren't all, those kind of dreams.
Mostly they were innocent, every day dreams, with the occasional
quirky thing, like being able to fly. One time, I dreamed we
had both been killed. He had tried to save me from a killer and
the killer had ripped his throat out and then proceeded to do the
same thing to me, before I could help Jace. I remember waking
with a jerk and calling Jace on the phone, at like 3:00 in the
morning, out of breath and frightened. He answered groggily and
proceeded to rip me a new one for waking him up.
Then of course, there were those dreams. I don't remember when
I first had one and more than once I woke frightened and
terrified as well. Not sure why. Because there was nothing
terrifying about Jace. He was a big teddy bear really, in that
oh my god you're sexy as hell sort of way. Course I had to keep
those thoughts to myself. I don't know how he would react, just
that I don't think it'd be good. His father is a major
homophobe. The proverbial man's man; football, hunting,
drinking, swearing, womanizing...the whole cliche' and you could
tell by the way he treated Jace, he expected the same thing of
his son.
I didn't mind the dreams in which I knew I was dreaming. Like
the one where we could fly, my subconscious seemed to tell me.
Hey buddy, you're dreaming again. The one where we were killed,
that one frightened me and stuck with me. It was so real, so
vivid. And those dreams, well I didn't mind them at all. But
waking up in the middle of biology with an erection and the image
of Jace naked and just beyond my grasp certainly wasn't
"Mr Cole?"
I looked up at Mr Ardmore. He had an expectant look on his face.
Apparently he had asked me a question and was wanting an
answer. "Uhhhh. Two?"
A titter of laughter filled the classroom as I rubbed my eyes and
discreetly readjusted myself.
"Mr Cole. I realize I'm boring you. But perhaps you can hide
it a little better, like the rest of your classmates."
"I'm sorry Mr Ardmore. I'll try harder to hide it." I grinned
and grabbed my pencil and pretended to copy his scribble off the
"Can anyone give me an example of what a genetic trait is. And
no," Mr Ardmore looked at me for emphasis, " two is not a trait
Mr Cole." Another round of laughter filled the classroom. I
tried to look abashed and pretended to scribble more.
A couple of my classmates raised their hands. Mostly, the ones
in the front row. Mr Ardmore pointed to Cassie Williams. She
was a brain, probably the smartest person in class.
"We are a diploid organism, meaning that we received one set of
genes (called alleles) from our father and the other set of
alleles from our mother. The combination of these pairs of genes
that we've inherited is called our "genotype. The genotype
determines the actual traits (called the "phenotype") that we
have; such as eye color, nearsightedness, and whether or not we
have dimples" Cassie smiled real big and pointed to her
dimples. "My dad has them, but my mother doesn't But dimples
are a dominant so if the phenotype is present, I automatically
got them."
Half the class was staring at her like she had just spoken
Russian or grown a second head. (I wondered if that was a
dominant genetic trait.) The other half had their phones,
texting, oblivious of Cassie's answer. There might have been
one or two scribbling notes.
"Thank you Cassie. That is a wonderful example." Mr Ardmore
turned and wrote the words: allele, genotype, phenotype, dominant
trait and recessive trait on the chalkboard. Several more
students put down their phones and quickly picked up there pens
and pencils and scribbled quickly. A few actually took a quick
photos with their phones of the chalkboard then went back to
The bell rang and everyone grabbed backpacks and crammed phones
in pockets and purses.
"Tomorrow I want examples of what external factors may affect
your genes." Mr Ardmore grabbed his eraser and went to work
erasing everything he'd written during class.
Shoving my notebook in my backpack, I looked up and saw her, the
girl from the parking lot. She was staring at me from the
hallway. As soon as I noticed her she disappeared into the
crowded hallway. I ran from my desk and stood in the doorway,
blocking anyone from coming in as I searched for her. I didn't
see her, but again I could smell Jace. I scratched my head in
confusion, glancing up and down the hall. I went back to my desk
and grabbed my backpack and noticed a drop of blood on my desk.
I reached out tentatively to touch it.
"Mr Cole?"
I whipped around. Mr Ardmore stood behind me, his brow quirked
questioningly. "Don't you have to get to your next class."
I looked back, but didn't see any blood. "uhhhh." I nodded in
confusion. "....I mean yes." I slung my backpack over my
shoulder and rushed out of the room, looking back over my
shoulder. Mr Ardmore stood at my desk, looking down, running a
finger across my desktop. The scary thing was watching him bring
that finger to his lips and I could see a trace of red. I
absently reached up to my neck but felt nothing.
My history class was next and I plopped down next to Jace.
"I'm having a weird day."
I looked over but Jace had his phone out, texting. I could tell
he had just come from athletics. His hair was still damn from a
shower and I could smell the Axe shampoo that he used. I could
smell his deodorant. I could smell him.
"Huh?" Jace looked up and realized I was there. "Trys?" He was
looking at me like he didn't recognize me.
"I said, I'm having a weird day. This chick, this morning, out
in the parking lot, she came up and kissed me. Like out of the
blue. never seen her before, in my life, and the next thing I
know, she's got her tongue down my throat. And I think she bit
me." I stretched my head up to reveal my neck to him. "And then
I saw her again in the hallway after biology." I leaned in and
whisper conspiratorially. "And..." I looked to my left and then
right. "I think Mr Ardmore is a vampire." I was only half
joking, but Jace looked at me like I was preaching the gospel
from the pulpit.
I felt Jace trace a finger along my neck, right where I thought
she had bit me. "I don't see anything." Jace pulled his hand
back slowly.
"Yeah, well. There was blood there this morning." I rubbed
at the bite, absently. It kinda itched.
"Are you sure you didn't like dream it?" Jace looked at me. He
knew I had a tendency to fall asleep during class.
"I didn't dream it! It was like right after you left the car
this morning. i got out of the car like right after you
and...and there she was. I tried to go around her and she
grabbed my hand and the next thing I know, it was like
Wrestlemania in my mouth. One! Two! Three! and then she was
gone. Like the wind. Kinda freaked me out. Then at the end
of biology she was in the hallway outside the classroom staring
at me. I tried to catch her, but she was gone again." I shook
my head. "I'm not crazy."
Jace was looking at me like I was crazy. "Okay. Okay. You're
not crazy. But let's just look at this logically."
You have to understand. When Jace says, we have to look at
things logically, you know there's something wrong...there's
something kinda wonky.
"First, when's the last time someone came up and kissed you. And
you're mom doesn't count." Jace grinned. And if it wasn't for
that goofy assed grin, I probably would have slugged him.
"Ha ha." I glared at him.
"Second. We were up awfully late last night. You know, with me
kicking your ass so bad at World of Warcraft. What's more
likely. Some girl, complete stranger, I might add, comes up to
you, and even more importantly, not me, and kisses you."
I started to respond but he didn't allow me.
"Or....Or....maybe, when you were in your economics this morning,
the desktop was ever so inviting, ever so sleep inducing, you
know, along with the drone of Ms Apple, that you might have
fallen asleep and dreamed a little dream?" Jace liked being
melodramatic at my expense, throwing in a few hand gestures as he
nodded his head to his explanation."
I could only glare. It made sense. I guess. I could have
dreamed it. i did have that tendency. I reached up and felt my
neck. I felt nothing. Nothing that proved I had been bitten by
this strange girl. And a dream would certainly explain why the
only things I could smell was Jace. I felt a blush rise to my
cheeks and said a little prayer of gratitude as the bell rang. I
sank low in my seat, casting glances over at Jace as he pulled
his history book from his backpack. He glanced over at me once,
his blue eye sparkling mischievously.
POV: Jace
I think Mr Ardmore is a vampire.
Okay. Let's just get one thing straight, once and for all.
Vampires are people too. No no, laugh about it all you want,
but it's true. Sure, you've seen the movies, read the books,
worn the wax teeth at Halloween, it's all such wonderful make
believe. Till you wake up and it's happening to you.
And it isn't exactly the way you think. Oh yeah sure, there is
that damned bloodlust. Some times it's all I can do not to
drag someone into a closet and eat. But vampires have come out
of the dark ages and into the 21st century like everyone else.
Science has made great strides in remedying the bloodlust. As
the pundits say "there's a pill for that."
Okay, and I'll be the first to admit that there are the
proverbial bad seeds out there. But that can be said for
everyone. And history has shown that we've had our fair share of
issues. The black plague, not completely our fault. Just a few
vampires took it upon themselves to take advantage of the
situation. And you can't blame us for the two wars. Not a
single vampire was known to fight on either side of the battles.
And okay, yes, the Jamestown colony, might....might be laid at
our feet....but all of that ....ancient history. I mean, I
wasn't even born then. I'm newborn, so to speak. I wasn't
turned by some romantic pale fanged creature of the night.
Nope. Born and raised and then along with puberty and body odor
and zits, i get a small case of vampirism. It's genetic, as lady
gaga would sing. Baby, i was born this way. So before you start
getting any ideas, I just wanted to set the record
I looked over at Trys. He kept rubbing at his neck. I had told
him nothing was there, but the truth; I could see the mark. Not
teeth marks. That was cliche and so middle ages. But a vampire
had left her mark on him.
Yeah, so okay, I had lied to Trys. It's not the first time, and
it won't be the last. We've known each other since we were
three. And contrary to popular belief, best friends lie to each
other all the time. Sure the truth comes out eventually, you
fight, make up and everything is right as rain. That's what
best friends do. White lies are a part of the deal. No,
those jeans don't make you look fat. No, you can barely see
that zit. No I don't see any vampire ...
What pisses me off though. I already marked Trys as mine. And
here comes this bitch, like right behind me who has the audacity
to try and mark him again. That shit don't fly. That explains
why she came back. She didn't know he was marked.
I snuck another peek at Trys. He on the other hand should have
felt something when she tried to mark him. I couldn't help but
wonder what it was.

HHS chief: health overhaul glitches being fixed
Written by Associated Press
CINCINNATI (AP) - Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius says during a visit to her native Ohio that work is continuing to fix glitches that hampered the launch of the federal health care overhaul.
Sebelius acknowledged Wednesday at a panel discussion in Cincinnati on the Affordable Care Act that the launch was "rockier' than officials would have liked. But she says work is being 24 hours a day, seven days a week to fix the system.
Consumer interest in the new health insurance markets has been strong. But technology glitches have frustrated many trying to sign up for coverage online.
Sebilius urged those who couldn't get on the online site to come back. She says no one has lost any opportunities and the product won't run out.

Meritor WABCO's electrically controlled air dryer demonstrates proven fuel savings
Early adopters of the product are reporting an annual reduction in fuel consumption of 100 gallons or more, equivalent to approximately $400 per vehicle.
Meritor WABCO, a provider of the integration of safety and efficiency technology for the North American commercial vehicle industry, is producing proven fuel savings for customers using Meritor WABCO's electrically controlled air dryer (ECAD), the newest member of the System
Saver family.
System Saver ECAD was introduced in February 2012 in the North American market and early adopters of the product are reporting an annual reduction in fuel consumption of 100 gallons or more, equivalent to approximately $400 per vehicle. The system generates air pressure during low engine-demand cycles, reducing parasitic loss caused by the compressor diverting horsepower from the engine, and results in overall fuel savings being achieved.
"Meritor WABCO is an innovation leader in the safety arena, which relies heavily on intelligent technology, and we've applied that expertise to enhance the efficiency of our products," said Pat Kealy, director, compression and braking, Meritor WABCO. "In addition to fuel savings, the efficient design of ECAD eliminates the governor, allowing for improved serviceability, lower maintenance costs and reduced weight."
ECAD includes two solenoid valves, which facilitate air pressure generation and air dryer regeneration. A control unit compiles relevant information for air drying, such as system pressure, engine speed and operating time, road speed and ambient temperature. With intelligent control, ECAD regeneration cycles only take place when necessary and are determined by monitoring delivered air volume. Regeneration takes place from the system's
own air reservoir, thus eliminating the need for a separate regeneration reservoir.

Everyone loves tamales and everyone loves late night situations where a friendly stranger delivers hot fresh tamales right to your bar stool. So, after some intense conversations surrounding the Tamale Guy here in Chicago, we came up with a great idea. What if it were some how possible to follow the Tamale Guy via Twitter as he made his rounds? A user community that would tweet when and where they saw the tamale guy and then users could be able to follow the progress by following the twitter.com/tamaletracker (tamaleguy was already taken).
How it works:
- twitter users send a @Reply to @tamaletracker when they see the Tamale Guy at their favorite pub in Chicago.
- then a scheduled listening service looks for any @Replies that have come into twitter.com/tamaletracker.
- when a new tweet comes in, the twitter.com/tamaletracker account then ReTweets on their behalf.
- twitter users sign up to follow twitter.com/tamaletracker or simply go to twitter.com/tamaletracker.
- choose to recieve sms alerts when twitter.com/tamaletracker tweets.
I created this the other day and have not tested it beyond my own tweets up until now. So if anyone does choose to use this little tool please let me know what bugs you find or if it just plain doesn't work for you.
I think Chicago is in the running for being the DIY-iest city around.
It would be pretty basic to abstract this idea to be a general "resource spotter" app, for any scarce resource that people in the city care about (like tamales from the Tamale Guy).
That seems like a logical next step.
Anyway, cool work Clint!
Thanks John.
I'm working towards that goal of creating it as generic as possible so that anyone can sign up for the service. I'd like to expand into sms as an alternative to Tweeting updates, since Twitter is not as main stream as sms service. Any recommondations on a service that would allow me to recieve SMS updates and turn them around to a web service?
I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but it seems pretty rad.
Bravo Chicago!
San Franciscans also love their tamales, especially those delivered by our beloved Virginia the Tamale Lady.
I think your tasty city hack can get a lot of use in SF!
On the way... Thanks!
Hey Sean - thanks for the love. I created a generic service/app that you can use to create a tamale tracker san francisco. Check it out at http://www.spotd.me. I just created this and am still in the testing phase but I would love to have you give it a test whirl if you don't mind.

Source Organization: Pew Initiative on Food and Biotechnology
Author: The Mellman Group/Public Opinion Strategies
09/15/2003 - This survey on biotechnology and genetically modified (GM) foods revealed that Americans' knowledge of GM foods remains low and their opinions about its safety is just as divided as it was two years ago. The survey also shows that knowing FDA reviewed and approved a GM product can increase public confidence and that public support for GM products decreases as uses of the technology shift from plants to animals.Using data from a similar survey released by the Pew Initiative in March 2001, the survey was able to compare awareness levels over a two-year period and draw two major conclusions: Americans' knowledge about GM foods remains low, even as GM technology is increasingly applied to agriculture; and opposition to GM foods has softened somewhat in the last two years but opinions about safety remain split.The survey released today also probed topics rarely explored in widely-available opinion polls about agricultural biotechnology, including how Americans feel about the way GM products are regulated in the U.S. and the application of genetic engineering technology to animals. Key findings indicate that Americans oppose a ban on GM foods, but are strongly supportive of a regulatory process that directly involves the FDA. It was also determined that Americans are far more comfortable with genetic modifications to plants than animals, and are particularly supportive of genetic modifications that improve health.The nationwide survey, conducted August 5-10, 2003 by The Mellman Group and Public Opinion Strategies, consisted of telephone interviews of 1,000 American consumers. The margin of error for this survey is +/- 3.1%. The margin of error is higher for subgroups. Data from a similar survey, released by the Pew Initiative in March 2001, was used for tracking purposes.Read the full report Public Sentiment About Genetically Modified Food (2003).

In many ways, stock investing is like a musical. Stories are told, and you have to "dance to the music". You have to look at the prevailing ideas in the marketplace, and how they will play out in the weeks ahead.
You can do all the homework in fundamental valuation, but there is no guarantee the market will ever agree with you. Often the best approach is just to step in and step out to the rhythm of market moods.
Sell Buffalo Wild (BWLD) To The Music Of Einhorn
If you search "Einhorn" on ZeroHedge the result will sarcastically ask
Did you mean Einstein?
That's because David Einhorn is a genius of short-selling. He is like a meteorologist in forecasting perfect-storm stock selloffs. Einhorn recently forecasted the selloff of Chipotle (CMG) based on unsustainable growth expectations, and emulation by competitor Taco Bell (YUM). But it's probably too late to safely get in on the CMG selloff.
Akram's Razor, who has blessed Seeking Alpha readers with countless successful short ideas (most recently a perfect short of Mellanox (MLNX)), suggests that there are comparable Chipotle shorts waiting to be exploited. On a valuation basis, Buffalo Wild Wings appears to be the most exploitable.
BWLD PEG Ratio data by YCharts
Buffalo Wild Wings is cheaper than Chipotle in terms of cash-adjusted P/E, and Buffalo Wild Wings is 9x smaller so it has more room for growth. However, Einhorn's short was based on a reversal of momentum, and thus PEG is the most appropriate metric for establishing a comparison. As you can see in the chart above, BWLD could lose 1/3 of its value when PEG corrects in the direction of Chipotle.
Below is the volatility implied by options pricing (dark blue) relative to the volatility implied by historical sample (light blue). Look at the upswing as of 9/9/12. This means options traders are expecting a bigger move than price history would suggest.
Buy Facebook (FB) To The Music Of Google (GOOG)
I called "GOOG top" on October 5. My primary reasoning was: in risk-off, the market wasn't going to hold tech, and competition from Facebook was going to find its way into Google's valuation.
So far the explanation of Google's lowered Pay-Per-Click earnings report has focused on pricing dilution from mobile. This is not a surprise, because "mobile" is the popular cliche in 2012 tech investment media. Plus, it's not like Larry Page is going to come out and say "Facebook is making us lower our prices".
I believe that Facebook's forward-looking claim of posing legitimate competition to Google is bolstered by the Q3-reported dilution of Google's PPC pricing. But it remains to be seen if Google PPC dilution and Facebook competition will merge into a singular narrative lending credibility to one another. It depends on who Henry Blodget happens to read on any given day.
In early September I noted increasingly loud and redundant criticism of Facebook in investment media and emailed friends to say it felt like a bottom. This was at the $18 level which will now be retested in risk-off. I believe the bottom will pass the test in days ahead, and that this will soon enough shoot shares up into the low twenties.
I have not written a bullish article about Facebook until now because I felt it was a crowded trade. I did not turn bullish on Facebook until early September, because I thought it was a crowded trade.
If Facebook coherently presents itself as a Google competitor, it could go to $30 on pure hype. In the long-term, Facebook is much more than hype. There is only one Facebook, and only one Mark Zuckerberg; the opportunity to own them at a feasible bottom does not come around often. Why not dance to the music?

Paramus mayor vows to fight Bergen County over blue laws
Update: Paramus mayor vows to fight Bergen County over Blue Laws
Paramus Mayor Richard LaBarbiera is vowing to fight any attempt by the county to prevent the borough from enforcing aspects of its blue laws this Sunday.
LaBarbiera, in a statement issued late Wednesday night, said he had directed the borough's attorneys to "vigorously defend" a possible court challenge by Bergen County Executive Kathleen Donovan. Donovan's office said Wednesday that they were prepared to go to court today to seek a ruling that would require Paramus to abide by Governor Christie's executive order suspending the blue laws.
The county executive contends that the executive order applies to all stores that want to be open. Paramus officials contend it only applies to those storm-related needs spelled out in the order.
LaBarbiera, in his statement, said Paramus allowed stores to open on the Sunday before the storm and the Sunday after the storm for storm-related needs and business. "What we won't allow, however, is a cynical attempt to use this tragedy to chip away at our cherished blue laws, the one sacred thing that Paramus residents count on to give them some relief from the crush of shoppers at our stores," LaBarbiera said.
Earlier Story
Dispute over Christie's blue laws order headed to court
There is a post-Sandy storm brewing over whether or not the borough of Paramus can continue to enforce some aspects of its blue laws this Sunday in the face of an executive order by Governor Christie suspending the Bergen County blue laws.
The county executive's office said Wednesday it plans to go to court, probably on Thursday, to seek a ruling that would prevent Paramus or any other municipality from limiting which stores can be open, or what they can sell.
"There are people whose entire lives are spread out on their lawns," said Jeanne Baratta, spokesperson for County Executive Kathleen Donovan. "It is not for us to say what they can replace or not replace."
But Paramus Mayor Richard LaBarbiera said that while borough is not opposed to sales of emergency supplies and needed household items like clothes and appliances, it does not believe the executive order issued last Sunday gives every store in Paramus permission to open. "It there's help that we can offer these people, we will allow the stores to open," LaBarbiera said. "However, I think there's a lot of people running around with a very liberal interpretation of the executive order."
LaBarbiera said the borough is compassionate toward the people impacted by the storm, and that it allowed hardware and home improvement stores to open on Sunday before the storm, and last Sunday. But, the mayor said, "we're questioning the remaining need at this point." The borough also does not believe that every store in Bergen County needs to be open this Sunday to help storm victims.
"You mean to tell me that Neiman Marcus and an $800 pair of Christian Louboutins are a necessity at this point? Come on," he said "Or that the 100,000 square feet of jewelry stores need to be open in Paramus? It's a wolf in sheep's clothing. And I find it disingenuous that they think that this is necessary to address the needs of those people impacted by the storm."
The county executive's office was reacting to a letter Paramus sent to the borough's Chamber of Commerce saying the Governor's order applies only to certain items spelled out in the order. The Paramus borough attorney said items not listed in the order, such as books, automobiles, or jewelry, would still be subject to the borough's blue laws. Paramus officials said Wednesday they intend to enforce those laws on Sunday and issue summonses to retailers who violate the laws.
Paramus is interpreting the language of the governor's order to apply only to sales of clothing and apparel, building and lumber supply materials, furniture, home furnishings, and household appliances, according to a letter from the borough attorney.
A spokesman for Christie said Wednesday that the order is "a blanket suspension" of all of the blue laws, and applies to all stores that want to open. Asked if the state would take action if Paramus issues summonses, the spokesman said, "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it." The order remains in effect until further notice.
All three of the enclosed malls in Paramus – Westfield Garden State Plaza, Bergen Town Center, and Paramus Park – plan to be open on Sunday. The Plaza and Paramus Park will be open 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Bergen Town Center will be open 12 to 6 p.m. The malls said they don't yet know which of their stores will open Sunday. The Shops at Riverside in Hackensack also plans to be open on Sunday.
John Holub, president of the New Jersey Retail Merchants Association, said that organization interprets the governor's order to apply to all stores. Any municipality that tries to limit what can be sold on Sunday clearly will be in violation of the order, he said. Many retailers, Holub said, sell multiple categories of merchandise and it would be too complicated for them to have to worry about what can and can't be sold.
"We're under an extreme set of circumstances," Holub said, adding that Paramus should understand that.
But LaBarbiera said the borough is steadfast in its determination to uphold the blue laws and doesn't want the storm to be used as an excuse to override them, unless it is for necessary purchases.

About this blog FLEFF Intern VoicesThe Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival from the interns' point of view |
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Blog posting written by Kimberly Capehart, Documentary Studies and Production '16, FLEFF Blogger, Cherry Hill, NJ
How much time do you spend on the Internet?
In a society that is constantly connected to smartphones and laptops, researchers have determined that the average teenager spends around seventeen hours a week online. But with the modern potential the Internet has for communicating with others, how can you blame them?
Popular websites like Twitter and Facebook make it childishly simple to share thoughts and ideas; and once that idea is put out on the Internet, it's as simple as the click of a mouse (or the click of a trackpad, for all of you wireless folks) to share that idea and to spread it to more people. The "retweet" option on Twitter and the "share" option on Facebook promote a global network of idea sharing: a tweet can be tweeted in Ithaca, New York and in a matter of seconds can be seen by people as far away as Berlin, Germany and Koriyama, Japan.
The potential for idea sharing isn't limited to social media. Smartphone applications like Instagram and the recently-popular Snapchat allow users to share pictures in a matter of seconds. Internet-based computer applications like Skype and Oovoo allow people from around the globe to video chat while simultaneously allowing them to share files.
This list of websites and applications that connect people and their ideas goes on and on and is constantly growing each day. The number, and diversity, of users is also growing daily; teenagers aren't the only ones taking advantage of idea sharing. Major corporations, local businesses, non-profits, musicians, artists, and so many more people reach a huge audience through this global idea network and can easily tweet, post, share, etc. their own ideas much more easily.
Mobilities is what makes this massive sharing of ideas possible, even when people are sitting at home. Mobilities allows ideas to spread around the globe and spark new ideas in others with ease. Connections and communications that never would have been able to happen are able take place thanks to the global idea network that Mobilities accommodates.
FLEFF is what brings these ideas, and the people responsible for said ideas, together. If so much idea sharing is able to take place around the world without people meeting, imagine how much more occurs when people come face to face.
This year at FLEFF, members of this global network of ideas will connect face to face. People from all over the world will be coming to Ithaca, NY to share their ideas on a wide range of topics, and the best part is YOU can join in on this global conversation and share YOUR ideas.
Are you ready to network?

Blog post by Sarah Lockwood, Cinema & Photography '15, FLEFF Intern, Blairstown, NJ
From talking with Menna Khalil, an activist with the Arab Spring movement, it was impossible not to come away with a thorough understanding of the movement's past, present, and future. For those who are not familiar, I asked Menna to discuss a few topics, which I have condensed into the following explanations:
The pot of Arab Spring has been boiling for decades, each country's actions and movements affecting and inspiring one another. In Egypt, specifically, where Menna specializes, most of the unrest derives from its political background - nearly thirty years of nepotism, the gradual diminishing of the middle class, and the domestication and domination of people's everyday lives as a result.
The straw that "broke the camel's back" for the revolution were the "notorious police brutality" found on the streets of Egypt. In one case, a young engineer living in Alexandria was found brutally beaten to death and mouth stuffed with drugs, in a framing of his murder Why?
This man had recorded, and distributed via the internet, a video of several policemen making a drug deal and keeping the money for themselves. This incident along with countless accounts of "humiliating treatment" and "brutal corruption" of the police forces in Egypt spurned the revolution once again.
Menna notes that much of the Arab Spring movement is derived from a sense of "nostalgia" in Egypt. What does she mean by this?
For years, Egypt existed as a nation whose sense of ownership and pride, "being Egyptian", was weak. In order to feel proud of your own society, says Menna, you had to "walk very close to a wall with your head down" and hope not to get caught.
Smaller revolutions in nearby countries preceded Arab Spring, with the hopes of one day developing into a revolution or movement. As an area of the world who, in decades past, have been exposed to war and revolutions, the current generation was moved by a sense of nostalgia for revolution, as well as a desire for change.
The incident of the policemen's drug actions distributed through the internet is a prime example of modern media's affect on the current movement, to which Menna responded emphatically.
Menna feels the internet works as a powerful source of circulation - allowing individuals from opposite ends of the world to share their revolutionary experiences and witness them, respectively. The modern age of connection and distribution gives rise to a movement unlike any other in the past. However, there is a level of caution to take.
Facebook invites to protest were often viewed as "jokes" by older revolutionaries in some ages and "a lot of what happens, can happen, is in the streets" and "is never fully captured by Facebook or Twitter."
As an Egyptian and activist, Menna hopes that the bittersweet term "Arab Spring" and its movement will not eventually fade. The term "spring" evokes the image of a flower "blooming in the spring", which is a beautiful sign for Egyptians and other persons living in the middle east.
However, it also evokes a temporality - that the spring may eventually fade. The middle east conditions are still unclear, not yet "at its best place" for Egypt, Syria, Palestine, and other nations.
"As an Egyptian, I want to think that the revolution is not over, has not sprung then phased out into a different season."
Listen to Menna and her husband, Michael Kennedy, discuss this movement further during their talk tonight, at 7pm in Williams 225, Ithaca College.

COME ALONG ON A CATTLE DRIVE through the historic Brink ranch. Lay out your bedroll under a pine tree beneath the starry skies of Montana, as coyotes howl from the rimrocks, cattle graze nearby, and horses nicker softly and stamp their feet in the darkness. Join the hay crew and help on the home front as World War II rages and Nazi Prisoners of War work the fields.
In this old west epic with a modern touch, you'll share in ranch life at a time when young families took on monumental challenges across the west. Yet a remarkable sense of humor prevailed and there was time for pranks, jokes and the fun of creating them.
Montana Stirrups, Sage and Shenanigans is a social history as well, of the uncommon people of the west, who practiced tolerance and respect, extended warm hospitality to strangers and knew the close ties of family and community. The book is filled with personal stories of ranch life and over 260 historic photos from the Brink family collection. (Read more about Montana Stirrups, Sage and Shenanigans.)

American comic Orny Adams first rose to international prominence after co-starring in Jerry Seinfeld's documentary Comedian. He has made several appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and has appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman. In 2010, Orny followed up his critically acclaimed debut comedy DVD/CD Path Of Most Resistance, with a poignant one hour Special Orny Adams Takes The Third which will air October 29th on Comedy Central. And later this year, Orny can be seen as Coach on MTV's Teen Wolf, a one hour drama created by Criminal Mind's Jeff Davis.
Early in his career Orny was named in The Hollywood Reporter as a favorite comedian to watch. He has written jokes for Jay Leno, Garry Shandling, and many other top comedians. He has twice written for the Annual Emmy Broadcast and has become the "go to" guy when a celebrity needs a funny line. In July 2000, Orny made quite an impact at the Montreal Comedy Festival, which resulted in a development deal with Warner Brothers Studio, and his appearance on Letterman. In 2010, Orny was thrilled to return to the festival in Montreal working alongside one of his favorite comedians Steve Martin on a taped televised stand up show Martin hosted. Orny garnered rave reviews for his performance and was called a "Stand-out act" by The Hollywood Reporter.

Corcoran Gallery to remain in historic DC building
Tuesday - 12/11/2012, 10:20am  ET
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The board of trustees overseeing the Corcoran Gallery of Art has decided the Washington museum should remain in its historic building near the White House after studying a possible move for six months.
The board announced Monday that the museum will seek to stay in its Beaux-Arts building, which needs a $130 million renovation. The museum said the plan could include collaborating with another like-minded institution.
In June, the board began considering a move to sell the building and expand its college of art and design.
The group Save the Corcoran sprung up to protest the move. Members applauded the decision to stay and said the Corcoran should draw on its community support.
District of Columbia Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton says she's overjoyed the museum will remain in Washington.

Rhythm N Bruise is a unique snowboard event with a course unlike any other. Part BMX, part motocross, part MTB, Rhythm N Bruise embodies what snowboarding in a rhythm section could be like.
Rhythm N Bruise is a fun-first event that centers around camaraderie, progression and friends. The low-key feel of this event combined with the support of some amazing sponsors make for an energy that would be hard to duplicate.

Because Avatar has effectively rendered 2-D obsolete, this month's Playboy will feature a 3-D centerfold. Just don't forget to take the glasses off before leaving your bedroom or we'll all know what you were doing in there!
"What would people most like to see in 3-D?" asked Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. "Probably a naked lady."
"In today's print environment you have to create newsstand events," said the editorial director of the Chicago-based magazine, Jimmy Jellinek.Jellinek said he hopes the issue featuring centerfold Hope Dworaczyk in 3-D also reminds people that for all the infatuation with the Internet, there is nothing quite like having a magazine in your hands.
