Electromagnetic waves are the basic fundamental energy source that are associated with communication systems ranging from human perception to space communications. Scientists exploited the use of electromagnetic energy to build many modern devices such as computers, televisions, microwave ovens, radios, lasers, and cellular telephones. These technologies have greatly made the world smaller in the sense of the rate at which we can communicate with each other. Most of the interest in electromagnetic energy in the past has involved long wavelengths such as radio waves, radar, and microwaves. As the need grows for the information to be transmitted over smaller devices and at much higher rates, there has been an increasing interest in the movement of electromagnetic energy at optical frequencies. This interest has been especially accelerated with the discovery of the laser in 1963. The laser provides a very unique form of electromagnetic energy, which scientists are now exploiting in new and novel ways. At the national and international level photonic and electromagnetic technologies have tremendous implications for the future competitiveness of the United States. Countries that are able to compete in the optical revolution that is taking place throughout the work will be the future leaders both economically as well as politically.
The Center for Electro-Optics is a unique comprehensive research center whose faculty an graduate students work on problems related to electro-magnetic and optical technologies. The Center is especially noted for the high quality of its research and publications. Our client/funding sources include over 50 government and private sector organizations, with $14 million in external funding received to date. Researchers in the Center collaborate with past recipients of Nobel prizes as well as other nationally recognized scientist and engineers. Faculty in the Center have received patents on their work and have received national recognition for their contributions to the scientific literature in their field. In addition, the Center is providing a unique product, the future scientists and engineers in a rapidly growing area.
The dedicated faculty, graduated students, staff, and government and industrial sponsors have laid a solid foundation on which to continue to build a center with the highest excellence in mind. It is truly an exciting time to be able to be part of the optical revolution and applied electromagnetic revolution that is taking place. The next seven years promise to be exciting and challenging time for the researchers as we enter into funding periods that are not driven by military needs. However, other agencies like NSF have recognized the importance of Optical Science and Engineering and are taking steps to increase the funding in this strategic area of national economic interest.
In closing, I would like to thank all of you for your hard work and the support of this unique Center. I welcome any input that you could provide with regard to our unique teaching and research activities.

INDIANAPOLIS – A former Peru police officer's nearly two-year legal battle to get his job back after he Tasered a nursing home resident is at an end.
The Indiana Supreme Court earlier this month ruled it would not hear the case of Gregory Martin, who in 2012 Tasered 64-year-old James Howard, a resident at Miller's Merry Manor Nursing Home in Peru who has advanced-stage Alzheimer's disease.
The final decision by the court means Martin will not get his job back.
Martin deployed a Taser on Howard for 31 seconds in a 65-second period after officers and nursing home employees said Howard was combative and wouldn't obey commands to enter an ambulance to go to the hospital.
The Peru Board of Works terminated Martin in August 2012 after determining he used excessive force in the incident.
Martin filed an appeal to the decision, claiming the city should award back pay, wages and benefits accrued since he was fired.
Cass County Superior Court II Judge Rick Maughmer ruled to reverse the board's decision. He said in a written order there was no evidence to support the board's finding that Martin used more force than was necessary under the circumstances.
Maughmer said Martin utilized the Taser in an effort to minimize injury to Howard, and followed police policy that determines the use of a Taser.
The Indiana Court of Appeals reversed that decision in September, saying in a written order Martin went against police training requiring officers to avoid using a Taser on an "elevated-risk population" unless necessary and justifiable.
The court said deploying the Taser five times for 31 seconds on an "elderly naked man in a nursing home, imminently destined for a hospital" didn't allow time for Howard to comply with police orders and greatly increased the chances of serious injury or death.

I just recently found your blog, and am blown away. Love it all. This one as well.ReplyDelete
I'm mostly a fan of your Glee fakes. It's awesome to see you find sexyness in all of them individually, most others have favourites and don't do much of Chris or Kevin.
I REALLY hope you do more, especially Darren, Mark, Chord and Chris. If I can make a little request, I think Darren/Blaine + toys would be hot, like the Sam one. ;)
P.S: The little stories you add with the pics are AWESOME. Keep it up. ;)Replies
thanks mate, yeh i know everybody just wants to see only 1 or 2 guys from glee or whatever, but i try to do fakes of every guy. and even if some guys dont find them sexy, thats their fucking problem lolDelete
i'll do a blaine sex toy request, once i find a hot pic.

UPDATE: Bank of America Raises PO on Agrium
In a report earlier today, Bank of America Merrill Lynch reiterates a Buy rating on Agrium (NYSE: AGU) and increases it price objective from $111 to $113.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch remarks, "We attended Agrium's annual investor event in Chicago, where CEO Mike Wilson and senior management updated us on the company's wholesale fertilizer and retail distribution businesses. Highlights included plans for a new green field nitrogen plant in the US corn belt, updates on various organic and external growth initiatives, and a retail panel discussion. On balance, the event reinforced our view that Agrium shares offer an appealing combination of growth prospects and defensive characteristics at an attractive valuation."
AGU closed Wednesday at $81.21.

One by one Monday evening
South Georgians without a home came to the Salvation Army to get away from the
freezing temperatures, and they were even served a hot nutritious meal to start
off the night.
"Chicken pot pie with
mized fruits as desert," said Mary Sumbry, cook.
"Oh yes I'm thankful
for a hot meal tonight, yes I am," said Eugene Harris.
After dinner, it was time
for some of these South Georgians to pick out a bed and get comfy for tonight.
Melissa Rutledge has come
to the Salvation Army many times before.
She's used up her allotted nights, but tonight the Salvation Army isn't
turning people in need away, that's something Melissa is thankful for.
"I am grateful I am
here tonight, I'm proud of being here and even if it wasn't a whole night, I
would still be grateful," said Melissa Rutledge.
Jeanar Baltimore is a
night monitor here at the Salvation Army; she is glad that the organization she
works for has opened up their doors to all who are in need.
"It feels good to get
them out of the cold, out of the danger, it's going to be 17 degrees tonight so
to get them into a nice warm bed and shower that feels good," said Jeanar
Baltimore, night monitor.
Melissa Rutledge tells me
that one day she hopes to have her own bed to lay on.
"I keep praying to
God to guide me day by day to get me a place so I wouldn't have to come back
here" said Rutledge.
But tonight, she's glad the Salvation Army is
here for her.
The Salvation Army is always
looking for donations. They hope you will get involved and help those who are
in need. If
you want to donate clothes, blankets, food, or money, you can do so by visiting

Mastro's actions are those of a tyrant and a bully.
After being exposed for giving a totally outrageous reassessment on the Lowry residence he now also threatens the neighbor.
Examining the City's tax records ..
... at a 2009 Assessment of $85/sq ft of living area Lowry's house is already the highest assessed one-family on the block.
... the proposed assessment of $147/sq ft is way higher than any other property in the City.
No reasonable person would let an Assessor of Mastro's reputation into his house ... because he could not expect a reasonable outcome.
Now both Lowry and DiCrescenzo are going to be burdened by the considerable cost of obtaining independent appraisals.
Who would want to buy a house in Schenectady with an Assessor like Mastro?

Bonus points if you give me a topic on what to give bad advice on!
"Good Evening. Do you need something?"
"…I look forward to the day when Americans will cease surprising me. Thank god for the small blessings of manners, however. — Good evening. I don't suppose there is any need for me to inform you that the activity you are currently engaging in is not only a health hazard, but also a direct violation of the law, is there? "
tangerine- We have a lot in common.
"Given shared genetic material, environmental circumstances, even spacetime…
…to a degree, I'd say we did a pretty good job not to."
"Incorrect, and unsurprisingly self-centered. All such attempts were deliberately made on your side, Sherlock. Nonesense, and time wasted. At least in essentials. Did it serve you well? "
"… Ah, yes. I am having a delightful day, thank you most kindly for asking. I trust that yours is just as agreeable. I must say, it's wonderful to see that you never seem to forgo these tokens of good breeding, 007, contrary to the majority of your… coworkers. It makes conversing with you the highlight of my week. Please. Sit. down. "
"Mr. Bond."
Busy day at work, is it?
❝ Oh no. Please. Spare me the mundane insipidity of smalltalk about our respective daily endeavors. Good lord, is this what we've been reduced to? What is it that you want, Sherlock? ❞
Mr. Holmes, I do hope you're in line, too.
❝…Strange how the current-fashion decency can look so akin to old-fashioned impudence. No, Bond. Of course not. And I would highly appreciate if you would set your sights upon targets other than my P.A. As for the rest - a numbering-system, it seems, would be adequate.❞
Some strange fragment of the woman was tempted to feel amused by the situation. The elder Holmes brother was most definitely trying to find some sort of gateway to her true self, something telling, hiding behind a supposed mask. A crack in her façade, as it were. It seemed as if he didn't realize there was truly nothing beneath her mask, save for empty air. The role of ' Mary Watson ' was hers completely, to a point where she no longer considered it a part to play. Most of the time.
She wasn't afraid, looking back at him with an unwavering stare.
She didn't feel much of anything in regards to this game.
Sebastian's game was a completely different story.
Mary, with the ease of meeting a friend for coffee, crossed her knees. " I'm afraid my reply won't meet the build up you've created, but that's not really my fault, I suppose. "
An owl-like blinking of her eyes. " I've been keeping tabs on him since we had an unfortunate (in my case) meeting in Sweden maybe fifteen years ago. I noticed some unusual lack of activity. However, it was truly your brother who tipped me off. He had a similar run-in with Mr. Moran, as is clear from the scarring on his back he tries to conceal. " That would surely warrant some attention. " I suppose it prompted him to do the same and intercept some messages from MI6. He did the hard work for me, you see. "
'Most definitely trying to…' —- -
Incorrect, Mary.
Not, of course, that it truly mattered. Assumptions were, for all intents and purposes, something that Mycroft enjoyed. Collected. Furthered and kept a rigorous eye on, as long as they pertained to others. Assumptions lent themselves to biases and bespoke of true character, revealing both present and the possibile future, all at once. Mycroft held a tight reign on the smile that threatened the corner of his mouth. ( Incorrect, Mary. You hear, but you do not understand. Please forget everything you believe that you may know about my brother; I assure you that it does not, in any way, pertain to me.)
I could not possibly care enough to waste the energy on 'getting to know you'; deducing you; intimidating you; playing with you; cracking your veneer.
It's all irrelevant to me.
You are irrelevant to me.
The only thing that could possibly interest me is — - -
→ Sometimes, Mycroft just likes to amuse himself. Not that many imagined it.
(A man with the sense of humour of a rock? Now, now. Assumptions.)
It suited him so well that he merely inclined his head in a silent bid for her to continue, face otherwise motionless, and slowly laced his fingers together atop of the mahogany desk.
Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
" I see. " Bland. Unhurried. Perfectly articulated.
Neither denying nor indulging any line of thought, refusing to guide.
A note of mockery flirted (but did not quite reach) with the purposefully-blunted edge of his voice as he casually threw the words back in her face, and offered her no quarter, no other reaction than a slow blinking that nearly mirrored her own. He had been tempted, for a split-second, to enact the outraged —fine, that is just a tad too much… let us say the… vaguely concerned…— brother, just to gauge her reaction. But the thought slipped away from him easily, leaving him, in the end, looking utterly unfazed.
The quirk of his brow was, however, sardonic.
" And what is it that you expect from me? "

I know that you know that I know. Three - yes, I do find your actual name extremely mundane, and extremely irksome. Change it. Legally.

Insufferable. Fine. I have given some thought as to whether or not I considered you appealing. "

Saturday I attended a panel at Special Edition: NYC, and from what I gathered it was one of the only panels that day that was even nearing maximum capacity. The Carol Corps, various members of the Young Avengers team, and plenty more in addition to myself waited patiently in the ever-growing line for this event. It was pretty much the only reason I went to the convention that day. It seems that many others had the same idea. Continue reading

MoCCA Art Fest 2014 and Fiona Staples Q&A
A little over a week ago I attended MoCCA Arts Fest, an annual comics convention put on by the Society of Illustrators/ Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art in Manhattan. Located in the wonderful space of the 69th Regiment Armory, MoCCA continues to stand out as one of the shows that I look forward to most in the con circuit. It is smaller, friendlier, better run, and has (I think) a firmer grasp on the comic reading populous and what they want out of a show. A diverse range of creators, panels geared to the making and process of comics, decent and affordable food in the dining area, cheaper tickets, and attendees feeling welcome and safe are all things MoCCA provides in spades. Sure, you might think it's "easier" for a smaller show to supply these things, but I hear that the force behind planning the fest is a staff of two or three, so think again. They had 7,000 attendees over two short days. Continue reading
All Roads Lead to Shutter: An Interview with Joe Keatinge
Joe Keatinge's star might still be rising, but his place in the industry was secured after the launch of his acclaimed run on Glory in 2012. Since then, books like Hell Yeah, DC Comics Presents, Morbius: The Living Vampire, and Marvel Knights: Hulk have (relative merits aside) served as stepping stones to Keatinge and artist Leila del Duca's newest creator-owned series, Shutter.
Joe kindly took some time to chat with me about life, comics, and his new book. There was also some wine and a sandwich, which have been edited for your reading pleasure. Continue reading
G3 Interview: Rob Kelly of 'Hey Kids, Comics!'
As anyone who loves comics knows, the books we buy every Wednesday are more than stories on a page. For those of us who got hooked on the medium as children, comic books are intertwined with some of our most powerful memories, good and bad.
Robert J. Kelly, or Rob as we know him, has captured that in "Hey Kids, Comics!" a diverse collection of essays by longtime comic book lovers including the likes of Archie Comics writer Paul Kupperberg, NPR contributor Glen Weldon, TV/comics writer J.M. DeMatteis and, somehow, yours truly. I'm grateful to Rob for the opportunity to be part of a wonderful project that's a pleasure to read. "Hey Kids, Comics!" isn't about the minutia of comics but the magic. Continue reading
G3 Interview: The Outhouse asks, 'Has DC Done Something Stupid Today?'
Are you a longtime DC fan who's been walking around under a cloud of angst, exhaustion and sadness lately? You're not alone. It seems that every other week brings a fresh crop of commentary about the company's WTF editorial decisions, rifts with creators, or questionable-to-terrible handling of characters. Scuttle a respected writer/artist team's long-standing creative plans! Shoot Catwoman through the head just to make sure we've completely alienated the readers who were already disappointed by our treatment of prominent female characters! Give readers the impression that the new Superman/Wonder Woman book will be a sexytime romance comic with capes and lassos!
There's a lot to keep track of, so the delightfully snarky and satirical site, The Outhouse, does all the work for you. In a masterful stroke of real-talk criticism, their crew launched a feature whose title says it all: Has DC Done Something Stupid Today? Continue reading
Gold, Guts and Grog: Introducing Rat Queens
One of the many announcements rolling out of C2E2 this weekend is the new project we teased here a couple of weeks ago by Peter Panzerfaust writer Kurtis Wiebe and artist Roc Upchurch. The title of the series is Rat Queens and it will be published by Image Comics' Shadowline imprint.
"Rat Queens will follow the exploits of four monster-hunting women whose love of partying is outweighed only by their love of exacting sweet, brutal revenge on their enemies."
Sounds fun, right?
I have got a five-page preview below that says just that. But first, I had a chance to ask the writer, Kurtis Wiebe, a few questions. Continue reading
G3 Interview: Gail Simone, Part II
No one can say that Gail Simone isn't available to her fans. She has long maintained an open dialogue with readers on her Tumblr and Twitter, and she'll take on the tough and controversial subjects that are bound to come up in the highly opinionated world of comics. In Part II of our interview, Gail shares her thoughts on the writer-reader relationship, talks about reuniting with artist Jim Calafiore for Leaving Megalopolis, and answers a burning question we saved for the end. Continue reading
G3 Interview: Gail Simone, Part I
V. and I had a lot of questions for writer extraordinaire Gail Simone post-Megacon, and she answered them with her trademark blend of thoughtfulness, wit and candor.
There was plenty of ground to cover. Continue reading

Nate Simpson on 'Nonplayer' and the art of creative perseverance
In the spring of 2011, "Nonplayer #1" (Image Comics) generated the kind of excitement that independent comics creators dream of. Written and illustrated by videogame concept artist Nate Simpson, the series introduced readers to Dana Stevens, a tamale delivery girl who escapes her mundane reality through the full-immersion online game "Warriors of Jarvath." The praise for Simpson's story and drop-dead gorgeous illustrations was immediate and plentiful, making it one of the most critically lauded comics of the year. By the summer, Warner Bros. had acquired the film rights. Simpson, a newcomer to comics, had a huge hit on his hands and a highly anticipated second issue to finish.
Then, that fall, Simpson crashed his bicycle — an incident that could have been fatal if he hadn't been wearing a helmet. As the right-handed artist wrote on his Project Waldo blog, "Every bone connecting my right arm to my torso was broken." His arm in a sling, he was physically sidelined. But Simpson began to write candidly about the other obstacles he had to confront, namely, the enormous pressure he felt after "Nonplayer #1" hit the shelves, and the moments of frustration and outright panic while writing the second issue. Continue reading
Wonder Women! Gives Heroines Their Due
A revealing clip from the fabulous-looking documentary Wonder Women! The Untold Story of American Superheroines, makes a powerful case for the necessity of this film. In a series of street interviews, people of both sexes begin rattling off the names of comic book characters, and not a single female comes up. Not even Wonder Woman.
Wonder Women!, which makes its debut at the South by Southwest film festival next month, could go a long way toward changing that. This buzz-worthy documentary, feauturing interviews with artists and icons like Lynda Carter, Gloria Steinem and Trina Robbins, examines the evolution and history of female heroes in comic books, television and film. Directed by Kristy Guevara-Flanagan and produced by Kelcey Edwards, the movie got a huge boost from two successful Kickstarter fundraisers, which made it possible for the movie to be completed and polished for prime time. I'm dying to see it, and based on the response to the fundraising effort, it's clear that many others are, too.
I interviewed Guevara-Flanagan for the CNN.com Geek Out! blog, and she's clearly committed to bringing the stories of these heroines to light. Continue reading
G3 Interview: Rob Kelly of 'Ace Kilroy'
Back in the Mesozoic era, I spent a lot of time reading newspaper comic strips. They were a natural source of entertainment for a kid who already loved comic books, and the Sunday funnies section in particular was a big, colorful treasure box. While I was partial to the more contemporary stuff like Bloom County and (do not laugh) Funky Winkerbean, the long-running adventure strips — think Dick Tracy and Mark Trail — were undeniable classics.
The new Ace Kilroy webcomic, created by Joe Kubert School alums Rob Kelly and Dan O'Conner, is an homage to those old-fashioned serial comic strips. Set in the 1930s, it stars a square-jawed, hard-drinkin' soldier of fortune who's been tapped by FDR to take on a mission involving vampires, werewolves and the Third Reich. Continue reading
Squee! Of the Week: Leia Meets Mucha
Every now and then, we post an image on the blog or our Facebook page that elicits an especially enthusiastic response. Karen Hallion's La Dauphine Aux Alderaan, an Alphonse Mucha-inspired illustration of Princess Leia, is a recent example. Continue reading
Geek Girl We ♥: Ashley Eckstein of Her Universe
Actress and designer Ashley Eckstein is living the dream of every Star Wars fangirl. As the voice of Anakin Skywalker's scrappy apprentice Ahsoka Tano on the Cartoon Network series Star Wars: The Clone Wars, she's become a part of sci-fi history. But even as a member of a legendary franchise, Eckstein encountered an all-too-common problem for female geeks: a lack of Star Wars items for women in retail stores. Sure, one could make do with a boxy tee made for a man, but that shouldn't be a woman's only option. Continue reading
Hell, Yeah! All-Female Creative Team Reveals Teenage Satan Comic
If you're at Boston Comic-Con right now, chances are you've heard the buzz about Teenage Satan, an online, multimedia comic project unveiled just today by the creative team of artist Stephanie Buscema, and writers Marsha Cooke and Candis Cooke. All-female, creator-owned comics are a rarity, and these days, any comics for young adults are scarce. Teenage Satan will fill that niche with the adventures of Luc, a 14-year-old high school freshman who just happens to be the future leader of the underworld. Continue reading
Q&A: Wapsi Square's Paul Taylor
There's a stereotypical notion that men don't know how to write female characters, but readers of Paul Taylor's Wapsi Square would beg to differ. While this online comic is supernatural and often macabre in nature, it's grounded in the relationships and everyday lives of its young, female characters. Museum anthropologist Monica Villarreal is a twentysomething with a close-knit and diverse group of girlfriends, but she also happens to live with an Aztec god … of alcohol. The comic has been going strong for a decade, and Wapsi Square won a 2009 Lulu Award for Best Female Character. Writer/artist Paul Taylor gave us some insight into the creator-owned strip, which he suggests newcomers start from the beginning. Continue reading
Anti-Matter Web Series Is Comedy Gold For Geeks
Life in a comic book shop is ripe for comedic exploration. Aside from the wacky conversations that are specific to comics geeks, there are the only-in-retail scenarios and tensions that arise in a small business, especially one that employs Gen X/Y employees. For people who visit an LCS every Wednesday, the awesome Anti-Matter web series is essential viewing. It's a funny (sometimes bitingly so) comedy that takes place a New York comic book shop, and the characters are oh-so true to life. E. talked to the show's writer/director Chris Walker, a former comics colorist for Marvel and DC, about all things Anti-Matter, and why it resonates with people who own longboxes. Continue reading
Exclusive BatWondy by Celina Hernandez
Connecting with writers and artists we admire is something V. and I have enjoyed immensely since starting this blog. They often turn out to be as gracious as they are talented, and artist Celina Hernandez is no exception. Among other things, Celina does the delightful art for Brian Andersen's Reignbow and Dee-Va, and So Super Duper — two comics you should definitely check out. Just for Girls Gone Geek, she illustrated this BatWondy image, which is just plain beautiful. What I love about this piece is its powerful simplicity. Bruce is practically enveloping Diana with love, and (squeal!) she's caressing his face. I'd barely recovered from our 12 Days of BatWondy series, and this has sent me right back to Swoon Island. In any case, we're very happy to share this lovely, romantic moment with the world. Thank you, Celina!
Take A Trip To Sidebar Nation
There are plenty of comics podcasts out there, but the guys behind the Sidebar Nation chatfest — Dwight, Swain and Adrian — are some of the most knowledgeable, opinionated and flat-out funny geeks ever to rock the mic. We had the pleasure of meeting Dwight at Dragon*Con, and Swain moderated the excellent Dark Knight panel. Based out of Atlanta, the Sidebar Nation crew has interviewed some of the biggest names in comics, and their fandom runs deep. They're super cool to boot, and I learn something every time I tune in. G3 chatted it up with the guys via e-mail, and they were kind enough to answer our nosy questions. If you haven't listened to their podcast, check it out at their site or via iTunes. You'll be glad you did. Continue reading
Ponies + Superheroes = Delight
For every woman who grew up loving comic books and ponies, visual artist Jodi Moisan's superhero/My Little Pony mashups are, as V. aptly put it, "So much perfect!" Jodi is one of the many creative talents who have contributed pieces being auctioned for Wonder Woman Day, the Wonder Woman Museum's annual project that supports anti domestic-violence programs. Delightful and highly detailed, Jodi's ponies of Wondy, Batgirl, Modok, Mockingbird and Wolverine made my inner 6-year-old positively giddy. And as the mother of an actual 6-year-old, I know there are scores of girls and boys — and grownups, for that matter — who would love to get their hands on these four-legged action figures. No less than Stan Lee is a fan of Jodi's work (he has a custom Stan Lee figurine that she made), and John Byrne owns one of her ponies.
Jodi was kind enough to talk to Girls Gone Geek about her work and her longtime appreciation of comic books and various things geek-related. Continue reading

Faster payments: a way to make payments faster. But how fast exactly? And how do you go about making one from your bank account?
Using faster payments can mean the difference between paying or missing that red bill, or your child at university having no money for a couple of days or getting desperately-needed funds on the same day you transfer them.
The Faster Payments Service allows customers of certain banks or building societies to make quicker electronic payments or transfers over the phone or using online banking.
Funds can be transferred and accessed within a couple of hours instead of days, whilst standing orders can be set up in a single day.
Banks and building societies operating the Faster Payments Service can process payments and transfers 24 hours a day, any day of the week.
There are two things you need to check before you can make a faster payment:
Most of the larger banks or building societies offer faster payments – you can find a list of those who do here.
If you're making a payment to a person, check that the bank or building society they are with will accept faster payments.

Pike County 4-H
Pike County 4-H members were immersed in a study of our government during Citizenship / Leadership Teen Day, which was conducted by Cooperative Extension Personnel and several resource people. Activities began with a trip to the Pike County Courthouse. The Assessor, County Clerk, and Pike County Judge all gave talks on how our local government operates. 4-H members later enjoyed a dinner with the Quorum Court members and then observed them in action during their monthly meeting. For more information on 4-H, call 870-285-2161 or email email@example.com.

Pike County Agriculture
Feed costs represent the largest production expense of beef production. Underfeeding can be more costly than overfeeding because of impairment of the cow's ability to milk and re-breed caused by poor nutrition, so it is important that farmers get it right. Hay is the largest source of nutrition used in winter diets of cows and is quiet variable in quality. At the hay and winter feed program, producers learned about the factors that affect hay quality and were taught how to supplement their hay to meet animal requirements. Fifteen producers participated and submitted 64 hay samples.

About Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG
The Mercedes Benz vehicles that were collaborated with by performance pioneers AMG that pre-date 2001 were extremely rare, and stood out as some of the precursors to what would be a revolution in and the ultimate merger of luxury and sports-minded performance. The Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG is one of those vehicles. Some of the more impressive SL55 AMG original parts included a supercharged 5.5 liter V8 engine that produced just under 500 horses under the hood. They also had the new 'Sensotronic' brake system and an upgraded suspension system designed to handle the added abilities of the SL55 AMG.

The first phase of a streetscape program for downtown Cairo could be completed as early as the first part of next year.
Leaders have been talking about the project since 2008. They decided not to start work until after Christmas because the construction process won't be pretty. The transformation will give south Broad Street in the central business district a new look.

Update: HIV-2 Infection Among Blood and Plasma Donors -- United States, June 1992-June 1995
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and type 2 (HIV-2) both cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Following the licensure of combination HIV-1/HIV-2 screening enzyme immunoassays (EIA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended that beginning in June 1992 all donated whole blood, blood components, and source plasma be screened for antibody to HIV-2 because not all persons infected with HIV-2 can be detected by HIV-1 testing (1,2). This report describes the first two cases of HIV-2 infection detected among potential blood donors since the implementation of recommended HIV-2 screening and summarizes national data about persons known to be infected with HIV-2 during December 1987-June 1995. * Donor 1
In June 1994, a blood donation was discarded after it tested positive by combination HIV-1/HIV-2 EIA and indeterminate by HIV-1 Western blot assay (WB). The donor was notified about the test results and consented to an interview and repeat testing. Testing at CDC indicated the specimen was positive by HIV-1 EIA, HIV-1 WB, HIV-2 EIA, and HIV-2 WB for research use only (RUO). Results of RUO synthetic peptide tests indicated cross-reactivity to HIV-1 and were interpreted as HIV-2 infection.
The donor was born and resided in the United States. She previously had not donated blood or plasma. She reported no symptoms related to HIV infection and denied injecting-drug use, receipt of transfusions, and travel outside the United States. Since 1982, she had had four male sex partners; all were born in the United States. The HIV status of her partners is unknown, and she was unaware of any HIV-infection risks among them. She has no children. She received HIV counseling -- including instructions to refrain from donating blood, blood components, and tissues or organs -- and referral to a health-care provider. Donor 2
In November 1994, a plasma donation was destroyed after the serum tested positive by combination HIV-1/HIV-2 EIA and RUO HIV-2 WB. Attempts by the plasma center to notify the donor were unsuccessful. However, the donor independently sought HIV testing 2 weeks later at a counseling and testing site (CTS). The CTS laboratory results were HIV-1 EIA positive with an atypical HIV-1 WB indeterminate band pattern suggestive of HIV-2 infection. Subsequent testing at CDC indicated the specimen was HIV-1 EIA positive, HIV-1 WB indeterminate, HIV-2 EIA positive, and HIV-2 WB positive. RUO synthetic peptide EIA and dot blots were also positive for HIV-2. These results were interpreted as confirmed HIV-2 infection.
During the follow-up interview, the male donor reported no symptoms of HIV infection. He had not previously donated blood or plasma. He was born in France and had lived in several countries in western Africa during 1979-1985 before moving to the United States. While in western Africa, he was vaccinated on two occasions with needles that were wiped with cotton and reused between patients. He also received several tattoos in Africa. Of his estimated 35 lifetime sex partners, most were African. The donor denied having had sex with men, injecting-drug use, and receipt of transfusions. He received HIV counseling -- including instructions to refrain from donating blood, blood components, and tissues or organs -- and referral to a health-care provider. U.S. Reports of HIV-2 Infection
As of June 30, 1995, a total of 62 persons in the United States were reported with HIV-2 infection Figure_1. Of 58 persons for whom sex data were available, 38 (66%) were male. At least 11 of the 62 persons had an AIDS-defining condition at the time of report, and five are known to have died. Of these 62 persons, 42 (68%) were born in western Africa and two in Europe; for nine, the region of origin was unknown although four had malaria antibody profiles consistent with previous residence in western Africa. Of the nine persons with HIV-2 infection born in the United States, six were adults of whom four had either traveled to or had a sex partner from western Africa, and three were infants born to mothers of unknown national origin. Reported by: MD Herr, HIV/AIDS Epidemiology; AL Hathcock, PhD, State Epidemiologist, Delaware Div of Public Health.

Editorial Note
Editorial Note: In the United States, HIV-2 infection among blood donors is extremely rare. Since the implementation of combination HIV-1/HIV-2 EIA screening of blood and plasma donations, an estimated 74 million donations have been tested for HIV. Including the two cases described in this report, three cases of HIV-2 infection have been detected among blood and plasma donors in the United States; the first case was detected by HIV-1 screening in 1986 (3). These findings are consistent with previous surveys of approximately 20 million U.S. blood donations during 1987-1989 in which no blood-donor specimens with HIV-2 antibody were detected (4,5).
The national blood supply is protected from HIV primarily through two methods: 1) interviewing donors about risk behaviors for HIV infection and 2) laboratory screening donations for HIV (6,7). All donations detected with HIV are excluded from any clinical use, ** and donors are deferred from further donations ***. For both donors described in this report, although no HIV risk factors were identified during the interview preceding blood donation, laboratory screening of their blood and plasma donations detected HIV infection. Subsequent testing revealed HIV-2 cross-reactivity resulting in a positive HIV-1 EIA (which would have led to exclusion even in the absence of HIV-2 testing) and a positive or indeterminate HIV-1 WB.
HIV-1 is distributed worldwide and is prevalent in the United States; however, HIV-2 is endemic in western Africa with limited distribution to other regions of the world. Of the 62 persons reported with HIV-2 infection in the United States, at least 48 (77%) were born in, had traveled to, and/or had a sex partner from western Africa.
In addition to detection of HIV-2 cases through blood and plasma donor screening, epidemiologic data about HIV-2 cases are collected through the CDC-supported national HIV/AIDS surveillance system and serosurveys (8,9). Because not all persons who are infected with HIV-2 donate blood or are otherwise tested for HIV-2, the number of persons reported with HIV-2 infection probably is underestimated. Nonetheless, the data from these sources indicate that HIV-2 is uncommon in the United States.
Blood centers detecting a repeatedly reactive specimen by combination HIV-1/HIV-2 EIA should follow the recommended CDC/FDA testing algorithm (1). Specimens suspected of being HIV-2 positive may be referred to state health department laboratories or to CDC for confirmatory HIV-2 testing. Cases of HIV-2 infection should be reported to state and local health departments as allowed by law and/or regulation. Periodic updates about the number of persons known to be infected with HIV-2 in the United States are available from the CDC National AIDS Clearinghouse.

Reply from Bramble Berry
Hi Steven! I'm sorry this scent wasn't your favorite. It is a more subtle scent. If you like cranberry scents, you may like Cranberry Chutney Fragrance Oil or Cranberry Sweet Fragrance Oil. You may also like Autumn Fig Harvest Fragrance Oil. Also, the fragrance will smell different out of bottle than it does it soap. That's why we test all of our fragrances in cold process soap before purchasing them.
"Thank you for your prompt response. Bramble Berry has the best customer service of any company I know of. Pass the word!" -Rene
There are too few male soap artists, but maybe the work of today's soapy spotlight interview will change that. James Troia began soaping in 2013 after purchasing a $9 bar […]
