United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
I have a Kubota B3300SU & I'm planning on purchasing a box blade. Not much out there that's decent and used so I'm really looking seriously at this:
United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade 66"
Looks like a well built piece of equipment, I think it's matched well for the size of my tractor & is a decent price/value.
Opinions are welcome!

Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
They are good box blades. Ted from Everything Attachments used one for years at his home until he started
manufacturing HD ones himself. He has a video showing how to use a BB using a United BB.

Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
One warning - if you ever decide you have enough implements (or get tired of getting on/off all the time to change them) and want a quick hitch, that scraper will need to be modified to be compatible.
I've been going thru this with several older implements, and even with gas, stick, and wire welders, plasma and dozens of other "implements of destruction", it's been somewhat of a challenge. I'm getting "mature" enough that I consider it worth the effort; you may not.
Just a heads up - other than that, it looks pretty sturdy... Steve

Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
I used a 5ft united box blade for over 5 years on a 2615 mahindra without a problem. I also used a harbor frieght quick hitch with the top adaptor and it worked great
I have a backhoe on all the time now & don't have any 3 ph attachments so the box blade will be the only one for the foreseeable future so I'm not sure how much the quick attach compatibility issue is or will be. Would the EA 66" mitigate that problem!

Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
"Would the EA 66" mitigate that problem!" - yes. look at the toplink area - it's open UNDER where the pin goes. The quick hitches have a large hook that rises up under the toplink pin, so the area BENEATH the pin needs to be open for them to work right.
Darmstrong2319 brings up a valid point - there's always a way around a problem - personally, I'd rather modifiy the implement (if necessary) ONCE than swing those two flat bars into place and manually insert a toplink pin EVERY time (especially the part about getting on and off the tractor a dozen extra times in a day)
Your situation may be totally different - I have a 3-bottom plow, 8' disk, 7 foot Gannon scraper, 6 foot flail, 6 foot tiller, 6 foot back blade, and am planning a couple other 3point implements and am getting too old and crotchety to wanna do everything the hard/slow way. (Besides, I'm always looking for excuses to use some of my newer "toys", and enjoy "solving problems", whether they are real or imagined )
The way you handle this is obviously up to you and YOUR preferences - we're all just trying to help you make a decision that works for YOU... Steve
Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
Thanks to everyone for the feedback so far - this is such a great forum to tap into the wisdom of others! Recognizing that the United Box Blade isn't quick hitch compatible & will in all likelihood be my only 3 point attachment (at least for the foreseeable future) would I be further ahead to purchase the EA 66" blade that's compatible with QA even though it's lighter whether or not I actually pursue the QA coupler? is the $100 Harbor Freight or Ruralking.com coupler worth while or would I have to spend $250 for a Speeco just to make the EA blade QA? I may someday in the future pursue a logging winch and a chipper. Does that change things? Would the QA Box Blade then be more attractive? The EA blade appear to be about 28# lighter and $64 more expensive. The price difference isn't a deal breaker but if I need to then add a QA coupler the price starts adding up. Thanks again for all your advice - truly appreciated!

Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
If you only PLAN on having 1 attachment (of course plans and reality aren't usually the same, for me at least) then the QH compatibility is a non issue. It would be more work to attach the QH adapter then the implement, than just attaching the implement. This is of course assuming you are saying you have a sub-frame backhoe, if you have a 3-point backhoe then that is something else. Not sure if it is a good idea to use a 3-point backhoe with a QH adapter, I don't have either.
Re: United 566HD Heavy Duty Tractor Box Blade
My BH77 backhoe has a sub frame. I haven't even removed the BH yet but I only got the tractor in October. I anticipate having the BH on anytime I don't have a need for the BB which I think I'd likely use a couple times a year to level out my driveway & for the occasional project on my land. Just not sure if a lighter QH BB is a better value than the United BB if my "need" for a QH is not clear as I won't but using any tilling/mowing implements on the 3 PH. As I mentioned, if $$ were no object, I'd love to have a chipper & a winch for the 3 PH but I haven't done enough research to know if the QA issue exists for them too!

Health Tip: After You Run a Marathon
(HealthDay News) -- Preparing for a marathon requires lots of training and preparation. Preparation after the race is just as important, experts say.
The American Council on Exercise mentions these suggestions for the hours and days after the big race:
When you've finished, gradually cool down for five to 10 minutes. Promptly change into dry, warm clothes.
Ice your tired muscles (avoid a hot bath for one to two days) and lightly massage the muscles that are sore or hurt.
Drink plenty of fluids, including water and juice, to help replenish lost electrolytes and sodium.
Drink a protein or carb shake within 15 minutes of finishing the race.
Check for injuries such as blisters or rashes, and promptly treat them.

Deluxe Strawberry Shortcake Recipe
Janet Fant's tasty shortcake is perfect for the Fourth of July. "I love the moist, from-scratch flavor of this simple cake," she writes from Denair, California. "It's foolproof and always brings lots of compliments."
- 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 3 cups chopped fresh strawberries
- Fresh mint leaves, optional
- In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans.
- Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Place one cake on a serving plate; top with half of the cream cheese mixture and strawberries. Repeat layers. Store in the refrigerator. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Yield: 12 servings.

This dessert, as a whole, is delicious. But the cake itself is fantastic! Extremely moist & not too sweet. Another great thing I noticed about this cake is that it keeps well without getting soggy. Four days later & it was still as fresh as when I first served it. One of our favorites.
Reviewed Jun. 12, 2011
We absolutely loved the cream cheese filling, but next time I think I'll try it on pound cake instead of the yellow cake.

This recipe is awesome! Everyone I've made it for absolutely loves it! I'll never go back to regular shortcake again!

Gaza's tunnels rebound from Israeli offensive
Tunnel operators say dozens remain out of commission, but they are quickly rebuilding them. The Israeli army acknowledges that smuggling has resumed, though it would not say whether this includes new weapons.
Tunnel operators, pointing off into the distance, said there are tunnels reserved exclusively for Hamas shipments, presumably weapons.
Evidence of the vast amounts of weaponry in the tiny territory came after Israel's offensive.
For the first-ever visit to Gaza over the weekend of the exiled leader of Hamas, Khaled Mashaal, thousands of masked Hamas militants deployed throughout Gaza to protect his convoy, brandishing rocket-propelled grenades, assault rifles and anti-aircraft weaponry.
The tunnels run underground from Gaza to houses on the Egyptian side of the border. While Egypt has launched periodic crackdowns on weapons smuggling, smugglers say the Egyptians generally ignore the movement of construction materials, fuel and consumer goods. There was no immediate comment from Egypt.
The smuggling tunnel business has been around for at least 15 years, but it got a major boost when Israel and Egypt's then-President Hosni Mubarak clamped the borders shut after Hamas seized control of Gaza from the forces of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in 2007. Israel also imposed a naval blockade, saying it was needed to prevent weapons from entering the territory.
After an Israeli commando attack on a blockade-busting flotilla killed nine Turkish activists in May 2010, Israel was forced to significantly ease the overland restrictions. It allows most consumer products in through its cargo crossing with Gaza, excluding what it calls "dual-use" items that Hamas might be able to use for fortifications or other purposes
That includes most building materials. Israel says militants could use cement to build bunkers and metal rods to build weapons. Israel also bans most exports and maintains its naval blockade.
After the November fighting, Israel and Hamas began indirect, Egyptian-led talks over new border arrangements. The militants want Israel to lift what remains of its blockade. In return, Israel demands an end to arms smuggling into Gaza. The talks promise to be difficult, and no decisions have been made, though contacts continue.
As part of these talks, Ghussein, the Hamas spokesman, said his government wants Egypt to expand a passenger terminal in Rafah to handle cargo as well. This would replace the tunnels, he said, and reduce Gaza's reliance on Israeli crossings.

Is 'I Love Lucy' Educational?
By Jan Hunt, member of APIŌĆÖs Advisory Board and APIŌĆÖs Editorial Review Board. Reprinted with permission from┬Āwww.naturalchild.org.┬Ā
During a debate on legislation that would require a minimum of three hours of ŌĆ£educational and informativeŌĆØ television each day, a USA Today article quoted readersŌĆÖ viewpoints on the definition of ŌĆ£educational and informative.ŌĆØ One show that brought about disagreement among readers was ŌĆ£I Love Lucy,ŌĆØ a favorite of mine.
The view of many adult panelists was expressed by a Detroit reader: ŌĆ£While some of lifeŌĆÖs valuable lessons may be included in shows designed primarily for entertainment, that does not qualify them as educational. Education can be fun, but it is a disciplined activity. ŌĆśI Love LucyŌĆÖ just doesnŌĆÖt fit the bill.ŌĆØ
The children who wrote to USA Today took a different view, pointing out that ŌĆ£I Love LucyŌĆØ teaches valuable lessons about the consequences of oneŌĆÖs actions. They saw Lucy Ricardo, whose escapades often backfire, as a sort of reverse role model and the show as something of a morality play.
This is an intriguing perspective, because ShakespeareŌĆÖs plays developed from comic characters in early morality plays, and his theatrical productions, written for audiences of a broad social background, were the ŌĆ£popular entertainmentŌĆØ of the day. As author-historian Frank Wadsworth noted in his World Book entry on Shakespeare: ŌĆ£Most of the GlobeŌĆÖs audience consisted of middle-class citizens, such as merchants and craftsmen and their wives. They went to the theater for the same reasons most people today go to the movies — to relax and to escape for a while from their cares.ŌĆØ
ShakespeareŌĆÖs plays were written with the intention of entertaining a mass audience, just as many TV sitcoms and dramas are written now. At the time they were written, his plays were definitely not considered ŌĆ£educational and informative,ŌĆØ nor would they have ŌĆ£fit the billŌĆØ as a ŌĆ£disciplined activity.ŌĆØ It was only from a later perspective that ShakespeareŌĆÖs plays were deemed ŌĆ£educational.ŌĆØ In his day, there was even some criticism of Shakespeare as an actor-turned-writer, uneducated in traditional theatrical production. Had television been invented in Elizabethan times, it does not seem too far-fetched to imagine that ŌĆ£HamletŌĆØ would have been one of the first TV dramas, criticized for its violence and passion. Today, of course, ShakespeareŌĆÖs plays are considered a required part of a ŌĆ£disciplined education,ŌĆØ with the unfortunate result of dissuading many students from enjoying the pleasures of his works.
Clearly, the determination of whether a production is ŌĆ£educationalŌĆØ can change over time. Ultimately, any show can provide ŌĆ£educational and informativeŌĆØ material and food for thought on the thinking, fashions, roles, and lifestyles of its time. In fact, early shows like ŌĆ£I Love LucyŌĆØ are currently studied in university courses on American cultural history.
But is ŌĆ£I Love LucyŌĆØ educational in the ways that most people define that term? As a writer on parenting issues, I have been impressed with the way parenting is presented on this show. Little Ricky is consistently treated with more love, kindness, and patience than is depicted in most current television families. From my perspective, nothing is more ŌĆ£educationalŌĆØ than that which promotes and models empathic parenting skills, especially as this essential topic is not included in most school curricula.
My son, now 18, believes he has learned a great deal from ŌĆ£I Love LucyŌĆØ over the years, on many topics of interest. Here are the subjects of some of our conversations about this show:
- that a good show requires skilled writers
- that talented actors can improvise some of the best moments in a show
- that most of the currently produced shows are more violent, less consistent in quality, and more poorly written than earlier shows
- that persistence (such as Lucille BallŌĆÖs insistence that Desi be her costar) can bring about success
- that smoking was common in the 1950s and not well understood
- that marital roles have changed over the decades
- that an actorŌĆÖs personal life can be very different from the role he or she plays
- that if you look into history you can sometimes discover where social changes may have been introduced (such as the three episodes in which Little Ricky is permitted to join his parents in bed when he needed emotional support)
- that even loving couples may not be able to sustain a marriage
- I could go on and on.
The indisputable point is that children are born with an insatiable curiosity. As long as we trust this process, and avoid destroying their curiosity through doubts and threats, and stuffy definitions of what is ŌĆ£educationalŌĆØ and what is not, children will continue to learn from every experience they have. Any arbitrary division of the childŌĆÖs experiences into ŌĆ£entertainmentŌĆØ and ŌĆ£educationŌĆØ is inaccurate, misleading, self-defeating, and ultimately harmful.
Something we all know at birth, but which is soon reprogrammed by well-meaning but misinformed adults, is that anything and everything on this planet is educational. We do a real disservice when we teach a child that only some things are ŌĆ£educational,ŌĆØ meaning ŌĆ£dull,ŌĆØ ŌĆ£difficult,ŌĆØ ŌĆ£serious,ŌĆØ ŌĆ£for their own good,ŌĆØ and something they would never want to investigate on their own. This always backfires anyway, as children receive the unintended but unavoidable message that the ŌĆ£educationalŌĆØ topic being presented must be difficult and dull; otherwise why is it being forced on them? Perhaps the most non-educational thing we can do is to convince children that ŌĆ£educationŌĆØ equates with ŌĆ£dreariness.ŌĆØ Children know intuitively that learning should be fun. With this definition, ŌĆ£I Love LucyŌĆØ certainly ŌĆ£fits the billŌĆØ in our house.
It may be that more people enjoyed ShakespeareŌĆÖs plays when they were told it was ŌĆ£entertainmentŌĆØ than they do now that they are told it is ŌĆ£educational.ŌĆØ Let us hope the same thing never happens to Lucy.

Texans' QB Matt Schaub Likely Out For The Season
In case you missed it, the Jaguars aren't dead in the water just yet, even at 3-6. The Texans suffered a major blow today when Gary Kubiak announced that Matt Schaub wouldn't be playing against the Jaguars with a foot injury. This from Jason La Canfora of NFL.com sums up that bombshell:
"Houston Texans quarterback Matt Schaub suffered what coach Gary Kubiak described Monday as a "significant" right foot injury against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and has already been ruled out for the team's next game.
Backup quarterback Matt Leinart will start when the Texans return from their bye week to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12."
Then, ESPN took it a step further, breaking the news that Schaub is done for the year:
"Houston Texans quarterback Matt Schaub will miss the rest of the season with a Lisfranc injury, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter."
With this news, the Jaguars aren't quite out of the divisional race just yet. At this point, the division will likely be decided by the level of Matt Leinart's play. I have to wonder how confident the Texans are at this point.

Loss of rain forests is one of the most serious environmental problems of the 1980's. Major conservation strategies already are being planned. Yet few, if any, decision makers understand the extent to which these forests depend on bats for their surv ival.
In tropical ecosystems, bats often comprise more than half of all mammal species, and their biomass may in some places equal that of all other mammals combined. Nevertheless, most species have never been studied, and major ecosystem studies have faile d to acknowledge that bats even exist. Such neglect can have serious consequences.
In tropical rain forests and savannahs, bats are the most important seed dispersing animals. In fact, one recent West African study showed bats to be far more effective than birds. Bats also are the primary pollinators of numerous tropical plants. M ore than 130 genera of trees and shrubs already are known to rely on bats for pollination, and many more such relationships await discovery.
We are only beginning to understand the importance of such bats, but already their ecological and economic impact on rain forests is obvious. Recent studies demonstrate that seed dispersal activities of bats can be critical to reforestation of clear-c ut areas, and that many of the tropics' most economically important plants depend on bats for propagation.
The nearly endless list of valuable products from these plants includes many grocery store fruits such as peaches, bananas and avocados as well as kapok and hemp fibers for surgical bandages, life preservers and rope, latex for chewing gum, prized lumb er for furniture and crafts, beads for jewelry, carob for candy and even Tequila liquor.
Many plants of economic importance continue to depend on bats. For example, regional harvests of Durian fruit in Southeast Asia and Iroko timber in West Africa each amount to annual sales of close to 100 million dollars. The former requires bats for pollination and the latter for seed dispersal. Even for plants, such as bananas, that now are vegetatively reproduced on plantations, maintenance of genetic strains of wild progenitors could someday prove critical to development of new, more productive o r disease resistant varieties. Man is far from outgrowing his long dependence upon bats.
Despite the obvious value of bats, tens of thousands of bat caves and other roosts have been poisoned, blown up or bulldozed shut, killing millions of beneficial bats and destroying entire cave ecosystems.
Vampire Bats of Latin America have harmed livestock, but ill-advised attempts to control them often have led to the destruction of millions of highly beneficial bats instead. In the Old World, exaggerated reports of crop damage from fruit bats also ha ve led to killing of bats. Farmers are alarmed by the sight of large bats eating fruit that ripens prematurely or that is missed during picking. Because fruit bats prefer strong-smelling, ripe fruits, commercial crops that are picked green for shipping are seldom damaged. Birds and rats are not so picky, leaving their depredations to be blamed on the more conspicuous bats. As a consequence, large colonies of big flying fox bats are being destroyed.
Some African countries are right now investigating possible means of poisoning huge colonies of the Straw-colored Fruit Bat (Eidolon helvum), simply because a few trees in certain traditional roosting sites are damaged. Single colonies may cont ain a million or more of these bats that consume more than a half million pounds of fruit and nectar nightly from native rain forest and savannah trees. Imagine their cumulative impact on pollination and seed dispersal!
Some investigators now suspect that seasonal movements of these bats, over thousands of kilometers, have led to overestimates of their numbers. It is possible that fewer than two dozen great colonies exist. These are highly vulnerable, and killing in one country could have serious ecological consequences in another country a thousand kilometers away.
Even where bats are valued as sources of food and fertilizer, they often are not safe. Throughout much of the Old World and the South Pacific Islands, bats are considered a delicacy and are over harvested for human food, folk medicine and even aphrodi siacs. Many populations of large flying fox bats are seriously threatened. On Guam, bat dinners may sell for $25 a plate, and in West Africa bats are so valuable that two poachers working together can make $1,000 in a single day.
Much loss of tropical bats results from simple human ignorance. In Southeast Asia and elsewhere, some of the largest bat colonies are destroyed by poorly planned limestone quarrying. In both Thailand and Malaya huge colonies of the important Cave-dwel ling Nectar-eating Bat (Eonycteris spelaea) are in immediate danger. In Thailand, for example, the Rakong Cave, containing one of the country's largest bat colonies, may be lost by the time you read this.
In many cases the most important question is not extinction, but how many bats can we afford to lose before their pollination and seed dispersal activities become inadequate to preserve the balance of rain forest ecosystems? What will happen, for exam ple, if huge colonies of Straw colored Fruit Bats cease to perform their annual migrations across the vast expanses of Africa, servicing countless thousands of rain forest trees nightly?
Can rain forests survive without bats? Hopefully, prompt action to save large but vulnerable bat populations, not just already rare species, will avoid the ultimate and possibly disastrous test.

Photo: Patrik Andersson Q: I've always battled my widow's peak. What kind of hairstyle is best to cover it?
A: Lucky you! Ever since I can remember, I've wanted a widow's peak; I think it adds character to a face. But I know that trying to hide it can limit your style options. Your two best bets are heavy bangs and a far side part, says Lisa Chiccine, a New York City hairstylist. Start by applying a styling gel (like Fekkai Coiff Extra Control Styling Gel, $23, or Suave Professionals Extra Hold Gel, $3) to your hair postshampoo, when it's still wet. For bangs, be sure to use the nozzle on your dryer and blow-dry with the setting on hot and high. Use a medium round brush (preferably one with nylon and boar bristles, which will help make your bangs straight and shiny) to dry the bangs from roots to ends. For a far side part, do the same with the styling gel and the dryer settings, but use a paddle brush, which should make it easier to dry your hair in the direction you want it to go. Bottom line: A good styling gel and a hot blow-dryer will keep your widow's peak under wraps. From the July 2009 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine

Stories are told of bigger guns, said to be in proce-s of luanutacture on thf other side of the water, but army inen in ^^'ashington are inclined to doubt the truth of the reports. The 16-inth gun probably represer.ts the largest type of military weapon which can be safe and effective at the same tima^ at least such seems to be tue opiuion cf the experts. There are other big guns on all the outlying fortifications of Panama. Col. George W.

The question naturi'lly concerns it.ielf here wit!i, a seeking afti r r(.:.so:.s why f-vcrylhmg is ready for a perfect defense of the Panama canal whil^ the defenses of our great cities are said to be far below the plane of efficiency. Congress always has been gen;.'rous to the Panama caii::l. The peoiile of the United States have shown Irom time to tin.e (hat they are sentimen¬ tally Inclined toward the great water¬ way. The consistent favorable action of coJigress in m.-itters relating to the canal work is viewed in Washington as proving that senators and represen¬ tatives recognise the value and .strength of sentiment. There has been no charge of graft in connection v. itli I'anania canal con¬ struction or with Ihe work of builil''!g its (l^ense. The only sutpii ion of anything improjxir in connection with the isthmiiin ))roje(t was the charge made that a civilian purchaser of supplies accepted some presents from contractors. Cengre.ss has voted money for the eanal anrl its defenses from year to year and has voted willingly and with¬ out delay.

It will be the 17th campaign for the 39-year-old Swede, who has spent his entire career in Ottawa.
Alfredsson had hinted at the end of last season he might retire after registering 27 goals and 32 assists in 75 games.
He has been Ottawa's captain since 1999 and is the franchise leader in games played (1,131), goals (416), assists (666) and points (1,082).
The six-time all-star won the Calder Trophy in 1996. He was Ottawa's second sixth-round selection in the 1994 draft.

First thing, this is not a wall cloud. Next, a funnel cloud is only a funnel cloud when it's in the air. As soon as it touches the ground it becomes a tornado. There were no reports of any funnel clouds or tornadoes with this storm around this area.

Customer Service at its best! – Wasn't too sure if I was doing the right thing at first by having my car towed to Performance after I was involved in a collision that pretty much tore off the front end of my 2010 Versa.. Turned out to be a very good choice. They had me set up with a rental when I got there and explained everything that would need to be done. They kept me updated during the entire process and when I got my car back, I not only noticed the awesome job they did with the bodywork, but I also noticed they washed and waxed the entire car. Great service,, and excellent workmanship. I hope I never have another accident, but if I do, and my car is repairable, I definitely know where I'll have it towed to.

U.S. scientists plan to map the genetic codes of 100,000 foodborne pathogens, including salmonella, listeria and E. coli, in a five-year effort to find faster resolutions to outbreaks that sicken consumers.
The sequences will be put in a public database and serve as the nation's road map for creating tests that identify harmful microorganisms and provide clues to their origins, the Food and Drug Administration said in a statement yesterday. The FDA is working with Agilent Technologies Inc. (A:US), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the University of California, Davis.
About 48 million people, or one in six Americans, get sick from food each year, and 3,000 die, according to the Atlanta- based CDC. The sequencing, dubbed the 100K Genome Project, will help researchers develop tests that identify the bacteria in a sample in days or hours compared with the week or so it takes now from diagnosis to genetic analysis, the FDA said.
"This is a very positive thing," said Mansour Samadpour, chief executive officer of IEH Laboratories & Consulting Group, a Lake Forest Park, Washington-based provider of analytic services for meat and produce companies. "It's going to increase our understanding and be good for researchers."
Such a project is more possible now because the costs of mapping genomes have fallen, he said an interview. A genome is a full set of chromosomes.
Norovirus, Parasites
The FDA said it's providing more than 500 completed whole- genome draft sequences for salmonella and other support. Initially, the project will focus on common food bacteria, such as E. coli and listeria, Shelly Burgess, an FDA spokeswoman, said in an e-mail. As the project moves forward it will include viruses like norovirus and certain parasites such as cryptosporidium.
The project will provide information that may help improve rapid, non-culture tests medical professionals use when foodborne illness is suspected in a patient, as well as tests used by public health for tracking disease, John Besser, deputy chief of the CDC's Enteric Diseases Laboratory Branch, said in an interview. The genomes will be available to commercial developers of the tests.
"This information will allow us to better understand disease, which in turn will allow us to better detect and control it," he said. "It's a win-win."
Santa Clara, California-based Agilent, a maker of electronic and bio-analytical measurement equipment, will provide scientific expertise, instrumentation and funding to support some of the research at the University of California. The U.S. Agriculture Department will also collaborate.

This past week, I was on my way to have lunch with a friend. While getting ready, I had the television turned on, listening intently in the background.
We recently commemorated Memorial Day in honor of our brave men and women who fought and died for our freedom.
As I watched the flags of each branch of our armed services hoisted and lowered to half-mast at the War Memorial at our local courthouse and listened to each theme song played for each one, I got cold chills as Taps was played for our fallen soldiers.
The ink on election certificates has just dried for the winners from the November elections last year. It was a historic year for Republicans in Tennessee.
Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a very bipartisan person; a "to each his own"type of individual. I am someone who doesn't require my readers to believe exactly how I believe or tell my readers they have to agree with without exception.
However, I feel as though I have a responsibility to my readers to help enlighten them and teach them how to look at their world as being a little bit more tolerable than what they're used to. Also, when something touches me in such a profound way, it makes me want to share it with everyone.
It's finally here: the end of yet another year of school in all its glory.
I remember fondly the excitement that generated from summer vacation drawing near. I'd get to sleep in and go to bed a little later than usual, go to a relative's house that had a swimming pool, washing away all the summertime blues, and let's not forget the anticipation surrounding Fourth of July festivities.
President Barrack Obama is promoting the passage of an international arms control treaty entitled, the "Inter-American Convention Against the Illicit Manufacturing Of and Trafficking in Firearms, Ammunition, Explosives, and Other Related Materials, or CIFTA. It was originally signed by President Bill Clinton, but never ratified by the GOP-controlled Senate. Now, presumably, with a friendlier Democrat Senate to work with the passage of this assault upon the Second Amendment appears ready to go forward.
Grab your gun.
In the last week, questions have begun to swirl about not only LaFollette's new police chief but also how he ended up in the position.
For a brief moment, I don't think the people squeezed into the council chambers last Tuesday night believed James Lynch had just nabbed the top cop spot for the city.
In fact, I don't think he initially trusted his own ears.
There was no discussion between council members about the applicants, their credentials or anything for that matter. In fact, entire council appeared disengaged from the process at times.

Time delays may mean memory for faces is more of a whole impression than an analysis of individual features. The issuing of a computerised image could be a flawed approach. But another problem is not just the time delay in the Madeleine McCann case but the very way the media has reported the crime could have damaged the possibility of correct identification.
The detrimental effect of age-progressed images is most probably partly a psychological effect: The addition of an age-progressed image somehow changes observers' decision-making strategies, and does so in a profoundly unhelpful way.
I respect a person's right to hold any opinion, even if I don't respect the opinion itself. Which means Frankie Boyle's repertoire of jokes about Madeleine McCann, BabyP, Katie Price's disabled son Harvey and children with Down's Syndrome don't send me into paroxysms of rage.
Matthew Woods is not the only person who's made April Jones jokes, and he's not the only one to have done so from an identifiable social media account. He might just have been the only one unlucky enough to have been spotted and reported.
The distress when a single child goes missing is enormous for the families involved. Imagine the scale of upset, then, given the suggestion by one charity that more than 130,000 children go missing in the UK each year. The figures quoted by Parents and Abducted Children Together (PACT) are staggering, beyond many people's comprehension.
Standing under the pine trees in a busy Spanish campsite yesterday morning it was hard to see how anyone could hide a secret there, let alone a secret as big as Madeleine McCann. It's so close to the fast road that follows the Costa Del Sol you can hear the traffic.
It's not funny, Frankie Boyle, if Rebecca Adlington has a face like a spoon. It's funny because none of us care even slightly if she is hurt by the joke - because she's famous, she can take it.
The British public, as well as tabloid newspapers, must tackle its faults if we are to gain a better standard of journalism in this country.

Listed and sold a home
We have used Tim & Julie's Remax agency for the sale of our home 6 years ago. Because of that experience, we arranged for them to handle the sale of my brother's estate after his passing.
Consultation with Tim helped us set a price that I feel was fair for the market. He provided sound counsel in preparing the property for sale. I was skeptical of electronic marketing without more liberal use of local newspaper promotion but the process used by this agency was effective. We had multiple showings each week and the property was sold within 6 weeks of listing. The agency staff were good to guide us and keep us informed of activity. It would have been reassuring to have been more informed of the sales promotion process but this did not seem to affect the results.
I would recommend this agency should we have future real estate transaction needs.

They went the extra mile to get my house ready to show. I could not have done it without them. They were very understanding and helpful during a time that was very emotional for me. Marketed the house well with professional brochures and a slideshow on the web. Negotiated the price I wanted and made closing worry free all why I was relocated to another state. No snags whatsoever. Impressive.

Helped me buy home
Tim and Julie both took the time to explain the home buying process to my wife and I. We were first time home buyers and nervous about buying, they made the process understandable and easy, and walked us through the process step by step. Their knowledge of the area and expertise in the field is the best!

Helped me buy and sell homes
Jim and Julie, and their entire Remax Team did a wonderful job in helping us sell our home that we had lived in over 21 years as well as find a new one for us that met all of our needs. They were very patient with us and knew our tastes which saved us valuable time in the search for the perfect home! They really know the market and are available to answer questions quickly. Both my husband and I couldn't be happier with the service and professionalism of the Schnepp team. Because of them, we are in a new house that actually feels like HOME! We highly recommend them if you are thinking about moving or selling. They take the guesswork out of the whole process which can be very overwhelming. Less

I have used them on 3 homes. Responsiveness is in a league of their own. Clearly know the marketplace. Had 6 showings and sold in 8 days. They return phone calls and e-mails incredibly timely. But most of all I appreciated their character. They do it the right way or no way. In 3 transactions I have developed a high level of trust for both Tim and Julie and their staff.

Say Hello to Robonaut2, NASA's Android Space Explorer of the Future
See more photos of Robonaut2 here
Designed through a partnership with General Motors, the Robonaut2 is the cutting edge of android technology. Equipped with a wide array of sensors and dexterous five fingered hands, NASA plans for the Robotnaut2 to work along side humans in space operations, or by itself in missions too dangerous for people.
The Robonaut2 began life as, surprise surprise, a DARPA project almost ten years ago. The original Robonaut debuted in 2004, and sported a very Bobba Fett-like head. For the new model, NASA appears to have turned to the Power Rangers for design inspiration, with future models presumably looking more and more like Ian Holm or Lance Hendrickson.
No word yet on when NASA plans on deploying the Robonaut on an actual mission, or if its first job will be programing binary load lifters and moisture vaporators.
To see the Robonaut2 in action, check out this video:
That was pretty awesome video. I'm especially glad that they partnered with GM, an American company, to get this stuff done. While I'm sure some of it was due to defense security, I'd like to think they intentionally did that to keep jobs in the US.
@ spike6578
What mustang? the background on the monitor was a new Chevy Camaro. You dont know much about cars do you? haha
Cool video though albeit a bit more scripted than I care for. It is good to see that the Japanese are not the only ones excelling in robot design and use.
@poboq and matt1qaw3
I agree, the extra digits on an autonomous robot would be superfluous and complicated. However, the original robonaut (and I'm assuming this one too) was controlled via a helmet cam and sensor-laden gloves that the operator would wear. His movements directly controlled the Robonaut's movements, and in space, inefficiency doesn't really matter as much as dexterity
i figured it was controlled with gloves and helmut, but four fingers doesn't necessarily equal dexterity, you need a gripping ability. Designing a four fingered hand with a thumb probably cost a lot more than a 2 fingered 1 thumb hand would have, and what do the 2 other fingers add?
How stupid. This CANNOT be the space explorer of the future. There is no work around the time delay caused by the speed of light. An astronaut on Mars could bend over a pick up a rock. This thing, operated from Earth, would take an hour to do that simple task. You would have to simulate the move, double check it, perhaps re-do the simulation until perfect, send the commands and wait for the signals to come back telling you whether it worked as expected or not. It's a worth while technology, but not a substitute for a live human in space.
Did you not watch the video. They aren't building this primarily to be the astronaut of the future... or at least this model won't be. It is intended to assist current astronauts. The tedious tasks of preparing an experiment and cleaning up after the experiment is done can be taken by the robot so the astronauts can perform more experiments more efficiently (my wording they didn't specify more experiments).
how soon can we send r2 to mars,to help stuck rover;& do sum practical hands on experiments;
from what i've heard on popsci, didn't a company come up with way to send packets of data,from earth to moon, using laser, or was that physics mag; i read?;
if not position satellites between earth & mars to give signals boost,;
i think i also remember nasa was allowing people chance to operate rovers on mars,so they must have been able to send packets of data, sufficent enough for couple hours worth of operating time;
The article should have been titled, "GM finally builds something cool... Surprise! Its not a car."
I'm sure Honda is laughing at this. Their a car company that has built all sorts of robots for ages now and theirs can even walk around (Google Asimo).
Although I do dig the "halo-esque" head of the robot.

Big technology: Geo-engineering
For a while now, I've been reading bits and pieces about the concept of geo-engineering: undertaking macro-scale actions in the atmosphere to counteract the impact of increasing greenhouse gas emissions. From what little I'd read, it seemed like the ideas of crackpots.
That was until my Cleveland Foundation colleague Kathleen Cerveny sent me a most intriguing link to a videoed lecture by David Keith from the University of Calgary on the Web site TED.
No kook, professor Keith argues that it's very possible to inject large quantities of sulfates high above the stratosphere, and in so doing … Read more

Lovely site, park is very family and pet friendly. Our site was shady, grassy and very comfortable. Stayed for 4 days: very nice. No disappointments.

Very friendly, park was as expected. Gravel sites are really rocks - don't go barefoot or let your doggies around the sites. Convenient to the I-40, and walking distance to good amenities. TV channels limited, but overall a good stop for the night.

Ended up here when we couldn't find Needles KOA. OK for the night - trouble connecting to Wi-Fi since we arrived late and couldn't get assistance until after 8:00am the next morning. "Wi-Fi available" means they have to give you the secret code during office hours. No cable TV. Uneven gravel sites. Probably a good place with pre-planning instead of dropping in late.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- In my hedonist's mind, almost everything has a relationship to food and wine. This time of year, my thoughts turn to light and refreshing sparkling wines and rosés along with medium-bodied, spicy reds like pinot noir, Beaujolais or Grenache.
As far as food is concerned, my warm-weather menus more often than not consist of grilled foods or barbecue. Barbecue, however, means different things to different people.
For some, it is a verb as in: "I'm going to barbecue some hamburgers." For others, barbecue is a noun and refers to a type of cooked pork or beef (usually rib meat) that is dry-rubbed and/or immersed in various sauces, then chopped or pulled and served on a bun.
To me, barbecue means a style of cooking. You'll find just about every kind of food on my grill, including (but not limited to) pork, beef, lamb, fish, vegetables -- even fruit.
In my estimation, barbecuing also requires a grill that uses charcoal. Gas grills -- no matter how fancy -- simply do not measure up. The biggest problem with them is uneven heat distribution. It's also difficult to use smoking woods such as hickory, mesquite or apple on a gas grill. I believe these chips or chunks of wood add a wonderful flavor dimension to many grilled foods.
And I admit it, there's just something compelling and almost ritualistic about setting charcoal on fire, and then using the coals to sear animal flesh. I'm not sure I want know why this practice is so appealing to me, but it is.
So, in the interest of making barbecue believers of you, I'm going to share a simple recipe for barbecued pork ribs that is easy to prepare and delicious to eat. I prefer to use baby back ribs that have been trimmed of excess fat and scored with a fork.
Whether you use large slab ribs or baby backs, this recipe begins with a dry rub. What's a dry rub? Well, first of all, let me assure you it does not require a masseuse. However, it does involve a massage -- of the ribs with spices, that is.
One of my favorite dry rubs consists of one tablespoon each of cumin, chili powder, kosher salt, coarsely ground black pepper, brown sugar, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper (optional for those faint of heart). Stir this mixture and then rub it onto both sides of the ribs. If time permits, let the ribs sit in the refrigerator for a few hours allowing them to absorb the flavors.
At this point, I often grab a handful of hickory chips, immerse them in warm water and allow them to soak for at least an hour. Using wood chips is optional, but worth it because they give the meat another layer of flavor.
Now, fire up the charcoal. When the coals turn white/gray, divide them in half and move them to either side of the grill so you'll be able to cook the ribs indirectly. I have a large Weber kettle-type grill that has two small metal containers I can fill with the coals. Add the hickory to the charcoal and place the ribs on the cooking grate.
Make sure the air vents on the grill are closed to about one-fourth of an inch and place the lid on the grill. In this manner, you'll be able to keep the temperature relatively cool, about 275 to 300 degrees. Check the vents regularly to adjust the heat if necessary and turn the ribs once during grilling. It usually takes 1 to 1 1/2 hours to slow-cook the ribs.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Geno Smith appears not ready for prime time, and Mark Sanchez might not be ready for the opener.
Now what for the New York Jets? Well, they have less than two weeks to solve their big quarterback question before they face Tampa Bay on Sept. 8 in the regular-season opener.
"We said from Day 1 that there was no timetable on us announcing a starting quarterback," Coach Rex Ryan said Monday.
And, there's no rush, of course -- except when you consider that the preseason is nearly over and the Jets still have no clarity on the situation.
Smith was given an opportunity to possibly seize the starting job last Saturday against the Giants, but came up with a dismal performance that included three interceptions and taking a safety when he stepped out of the back of the end zone.
Sanchez, who appeared in great shape to win the competition, is now recovering from a shoulder injury suffered in garbage time against the Giants -- and could keep him out for the start of the season.
It is conceivable, of course, that the Jets could keep everyone -- the media, fans and opponents -- guessing until the Friday before their game against the Buccaneers.
"We'll probably have our decision before that," Ryan said. "But as we said, we're not going to rush the decision until we're completely comfortable with that decision. And, we'll stay with that.
"Hey, I don't know what else to say about it."
Ryan is probably a bit surprised he's even still talking about the competition at this point. After all, it was deemed an "open competition" that would be decided when one of the quarterbacks had elevated himself above the other.
But, it has been so tightly contested that there was no clear opening, an opportunity for most observers to say, "That's the guy."
Until Saturday night.
That's when Smith showed his inexperience in his first NFL start with some jitters, mistakes and missteps through three-plus quarters.
"It (was) pretty uneven," Smith said. "I had some ups and downs. It's all a part of the learning curve."
