Ohlde Seed Farms, Palmer, Kan., has seven new soybean varieties listed in its latest product catalog. Ohlde offers the capability to access top performing genetics and traits and incorporate them into soil-specific seed varieties.
The 0 394 variety is an option for irrigation and high-yield environments, according to Shane Ohlde, president of Ohlde Seed Farms. The 0 404 is a new medium height plant. While 0 394 is best suited for high-yield environments, 0 404 has great stress tolerance, including for heat stress. It was the No. 3 performer in a Farmer's Independent Research of Seed Technology (FIRST) trial near Beatrice, Neb., this past October with a yield of 64.8 bushels per acre. 0 424 is another variety with yield potential.
Like 0 404, it provides Roundup Ready 2 and STS stacked traits and excellent emergence. A new 0 474 is another tough stress bean and performs across all yield environments. Ohlde Seed Farms continues to sell 0 453, a favorite in much of central Kansas.
For more information, call 785-692-4555 or visit www.ohldeseed.com.
DuPont Pioneer has introduced two new hybrids for 2014—Pioneer hybrid 86P20 is a 63RM hybrid with strong stress tolerance and early maturity rating and Pioneer hybrid 85P05 has a 68RM rating, with excellent yield under stress and very good performance on the High Plains and in Kansas. The hybrid has above-average stalk lodging scores.
Growers planting Pioneer brand sorghum hybrids recently won four of seven first-place finishes and 12 of 21 national categories in the 2013 National Sorghum Producers (NSP) Yield and Management Contest. Seven of those growers won national finishes with Pioneer sorghum hybrid 84G62. Growers planting Pioneer sorghum hybrids captured 63 percent of all state category placements. Pioneer has three sorghum research stations in the United States and seven additional stations in sorghum-growing regions around the world. Each station is located in an environment where disease, insect or climatic constraints can be evaluated. Testing occurs in more than 100,000 yield plots at 60 locations in four countries.

|Mercedes-Benz Vito - Mercedes vito ignition key problem - rennie
Please can someone advise as to the problem I have with my Vito van, the van has been working perfect until today when the ignition key stopes working. When I try to turn the key it will not move, the key is the new type electronic one.
I have a spare key but it has the same problem.
I have been told it could need a new ignition and I have also been told it is a problem with the steering lock unit, because the steering lock is off.
Can someone recommend an independent Mercedes specialist or mobile auto electrician in the north west, nearer to Warrington the better
Cheers Rennie

We can all learn a thing or five from Google Checkout. The official Google Checkout site has testimonials stating that customers who go through Google Checkout are 24% to 40% more likely to convert than those who go through a websites traditional checkout.
What's Google doing that makes more people convert in their checkout than sites with only in-house checkout? Here's a list of five features that are aiding its success and can be integrated into all checkouts.
1. They stripped unnecessary steps from the checkout process, making it very easy for the customer: there are no additional steps to sign up; the customer simply enters his information and they have an account; there's only one field for an address displayed in their form; following the form is a button to open another section of the form to enter a different shipping address only if necessary. There are also no optional fields in their forms; no fax numbers, no entering in your email address twice. They don't worry about where you heard about the site. Just the bare minimum of what is needed to allow the customer to pay for the product and get it shipped.
2. Its only two pages and very fast! Customers barely have to time to second-guess their purchase.
3. Google gives assurances near each Call to Action, telling the customer what to expect in their checkout, and delivers. On the first page of checkout it says, "You can still make changes to your order on the next page." They do something similar on the first page in the product review. By telling the customer that their shipping and tax will be calculated on the next page.
4. A brief synopsis of the company's return policy on the second page with a link to read the entire policy.
5. Google shows customers which products they're ordering before they're required to enter any credit card information.
There are many more reasons to the success of Google Checkout. There is also room for improvement. For instance:
Do you have any experience with Google Checkout? Have you noticed any impact on your conversion rate in checkout with Google Checkout as opposed to your sites checkout? Any other observations or concerns? Google Checkout looks like it's set to take the lead as the main third party provider for customers and merchants beating out Yahoo and PayPal's combined effort (which Marketing Pilgrim likes to call "Payhoo").
#6. Brand recognition. People know and trust Google.
Google's emphasis on speed will win eyeballs every time. They follow the three A's.
Agile, Aerodynamic and Aligned.
When YouTube could deliver video faster than Google. Google bought them. That's AGILE.
When Google looked for ways to trim it's glacial hiring system (reducing drag). That's AERODYNAMIC.
When Google states they want to "Be the vortex of modern advertising," that' ALIGNED.
Now… what's an A word for megalomania Vince
Google's brand recognition is most certainly another huge factor to their higher success rate than that of site's in house checkout. In order for smaller less recognized companies to make up for this lack of trust and recognition subscribing to third party verification services like Verisign or BBB, and offering Paypal along with eCheck and Billmelater will help build confidence and positively impact conversion.
Overall, having a highly intuitive, and incredibly fast and easy checkout system is much better approach than pasting a few trusted logos on an inefficient and frustrating existing checkout.
Another "A" that is making for Googles success is "Always" knowing what consumers are doing. Checkout out what Robert Gorell has to say about Google's intention on bidding for broadcast TV range Wimax and entering the mobile arena. http://www.grokdotcom.com/2007/07/31/googles-wimax-bid-free-internet-service-for-us/
I'm not sure what your exact definition of 'converts better' is in this case. Our customers still prefer to pay with a credit card through our own form 10/1 over GCO. Additionally, measuring between customer's who click the 'Google Checkout' link and customer who click on the 'Pay with a Credit Card' link to our own payment page, I don't think there is even a 10% difference in conversion. I wouldn't think our checkout system is 'that much better' than anyone other decent ecommerce site, but we're definitely not seeing that much of a conversion difference between GCO and our own checkout page. We've accepted GCO as another form of payment for over a year now so our personal experience with it is fairly solid at this point.
Google Checkout did however quickly pass Paypal in visitor payment preference, and has maintained a 2 – 1 lead over paypal since about the second week of using it, so I definitely do see some solid brand awareness and trust. Paypal express checkout boosted paypal conversions by about 50% from the traditional paypal checkout system.
Personally, I think it is important to offer several forms of payment of a website, as your customer's should be able to purchase from you using the method they prefer.
The figures I got about Google CO 'converting better' are from Google's official site for Google CO. They state that customers who choose to pay through Google checkout are less likely to abandon during checkout than customers who go through the in-site checkout.
From my experience analyzing sites, I would say that Google's statement is very likely to be true because there is a lot of room for improvement in checkouts! If your site's checkout is converting at the same rate as the customers who choose to pay through Google checkout, I would like to congratulate you because your site most likely has a solid checkout.
How about #1: Everybody knows and trusts (for better or for worse) Google.
Google's trust is definitely a large contributing factor. I chose to focus this post on the actual structure of Google's checkout by highlighting elements of their process that our readers replicate their sites' checkout. As stated in an earlier response, one way a site can compensate for having a lack of trust and brand recognition is to sign up with third party verification services such as Verisign and BBB Online.

There is both good and bad with Google Checkout and I have been with it from the beginning.
*Name recognition
*Badges in Adwords
*Option for my customers
*Google and customer service are like oil and water, they do not mix. Even though this is the real bad I can state, it is a major one as despite PayPal's poor customer service, Google makes PayPal look like the Gods of customer service. When ever there are issue, Google NEVER (and I mean NEVER) can be contacted in a timely matter resulting in lost sales and other ongoing issues
great article, there is google checkout always see to be confusing.
Maybe a good alternative, but the fees are too high and customer service and website integration need improving
Google Checkout is very good policy that we can have facility of shopping at one place and also helps to block spammers
google is a portal, and that is what people want ultimately, no fluff, just the basics
agreed. google is just better
I've used Paypal for years now without really thinking of getting involved with the other offering. I used to sell a lot on eBay and that's why Paypal became my checkout choice. I had no idea Google was so simple and I've recently built a website from a template where I had options but disabled every payment option except paypal, just through familiarity. I remeber first setting up payapl and there were a few hoops to jump through, such as waiting for them to deposit a couple of sums in my account and having to get back with the pin, and then reaching a financial limit where I had to go on and re-verify things.Anyhow thanks for this, I'll go back and enable the google check out and compare it for myself as maybe I'm missing a tric, to be honest I didn't think that the conversion rate really came in to play as I thought that once they've gone to the payment page, most wouldn't back out unless something looked wrong or amateurish. Thanks again for the blog and the follow up comments!

A remastered reissue of an out-of-print underground hip-hop classic, Ruff Draft is the late, great J Dilla at a creative apex. It took him a week to turn the whole thing out, but that was more than enough time to unleash a maelstrom of lo-fi breakbeat jams that paid tribute to old-school hip-hop's simplicity and structure ("Make 'em NV" and "Crushin'") while it reinvigorated the game with more experimental looping techniques and spacey sampling ("Nothing Like This" and "Let's Take It Back"). Until last month, Ruff Draft had mostly seen the light of day on turntables, but recent renewed interest in Dilla's work—not to mention the mountains of medical bills bequeathed to his saintly mother—warranted a re-release of what many consider to be some of the Detroit beat architect's best work. A couple of alternate tracks ("Intro" and "Shouts") and unreleased session takes ("Wild" and "Take Notice") are interesting enough but don't really add anything new to the stew. However, instrumental versions of nearly every song on the original LP turn the latter half of Ruff Draft into an instant party mix that should successfully snap the necks and shake the asses off rabid fans and casual listeners alike. Rather than repackage readily available material for fun and profit, the folks at Stones Throw have gone and done the music listening public a tremendous favor, distributing a seminal hip-hop creation for mass consumption while simultaneously documenting it for posterity.

Wound Lyrics - Smashing Pumpkins
Review The Song (6)
There you are
As you always were
In bathing light
And naked blur
You're a part of me
Eternal One
By grand design
And setting sun
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life unloved and cities burning
Awake in my arms
You cry unharmed
Our age of the hours
While they still devour all
So take it all
I doubt if we
Will know it's gone
Cause we've been here
Since time began
Begged god awake and make these plans
Wound opens
Reveal this broken man
And soon there's notions of blood on his hands
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around I thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around and thought I watched the world ending
Inside the crushing down I felt a pang the tide was turning
Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Who'll tear this world down
To spite god above
With his own love
With his own love
If you wait
If you wait
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will Love
Run I will run
To my last breathe

Splover, that's not what they were saying. that commebt was written in 07. Read it again.
Awesome song though, I did have the strangest dream the world was ending last night (21/12/12)... although I haven't looked out the window yet ;-)
nice song | Reviewer: splover | 6/16/11
they didn't kick ginger and the "other one" lisa out. ginger had a baby and left the band. lisa went on to other gigs and does keyboards for adam lambert currently (which sux). i would've stayed with the pumpkins.
Great song | Reviewer: Paul | 12/6/09
The whole Machina album is amazing, this is truly one of the standout songs. Others include Heavy Metal Machine, Glass and the Ghost Children, Try Try Try, and I of the Mourning. Basically this album is very underrated.
awesome | Reviewer: sabra | 8/8/07
i absolutely love it, it makes me wish d'arcy and james were back in the band, and they kicked ginger and the other one out
wound~ | Reviewer: Ivy | 4/3/07
Wound is one of the best from this album!!!!
I love the machina album why does everyone say it's not as good as the early ones?? It definitely didn't get the credit it deserved!
wow, wow, wow, this song blows "stand in side your love" or what ever out of the god damn water, don't agree? smoke a lot of weed and then listen to the song, it kicks some major ass! i give it a 10 out of 10 because it.... its so damn good!

Archaeology at Fort Nisqually
July 26 - November 23, 2014
Pieces of ceramic, metal, and glass tell a story about the everyday life and labors of the men and women of Historic Fort Nisqually. This exhibit features fragments of plates and tea cups, bottles, toys and game pieces, buttons, earrings and brooches, and other material found from both the 1833 and 1843 Fort Nisqually sites.
These fragments provide a glimpse into the habits and life styles of the people that made up the first European settlement on Puget Sound. Some of the fragments have been reconstructed into nearly whole artifacts. Reproductions and period pieces help illustrate what other fragments looked like when whole.
Favorite Things
November 29, 2014 – March 15, 2015

Clearly, director Malcolm Clark and writer Sean Kanan (an actor by day, not a writer, and no friggin' duh) wanted to adapt J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye, like thousands of other would-bes and wannabes before them. When they figured out that wasn't going to happen, they instead stole and claimed "homage." Only this bastard's as phony as any Holden Caulfield encountered on his trip to the asylum; it steals from the original and sells it back to the audience at discount prices (it cost me more to watch it than it did to make it). DJ Qualls (Road Trip, The New Guy) is, ahem, the new guy at the same prep school his older brother attended; he's gawky and geeky but nonetheless tough, a Catcherfan emboldened by his hero's reluctance to take shit from the frauds. But Qualls' Neil, the son of the New York governor, is fake-tough; the actor is all arms and legs and nose and, therefore, is built strictly for comedy. He's a smoker, a lover (he wows and woos Rachel Blanchard, another Road Tripper), a pompous bore through and through; he's the kind of guy who believes Salinger will talk to him after years in exile, because he'sthe biggest Catcherfan and, hence, a kindred spirit. The whole thing's bland and manipulative, down to the condescending score that doesn't let you breathe or think; it feels for you. So do I, if you see this.

AzleDistrict 5-4A Coach: Devon Dorris Last season: 7-4 (4-3 in District 5-4A), lost to Birdville in bi-district round Key players: WR Tyler Albers (5-9, 183); WR Matt Delprincipe (6-2, 175); RB Dalton Cole (5-11, 190); OL Landon Todd (6-3, 260) OL Logan Todd (6-3, 265); NG Garrett Tidwell (6-0, 255); LB Johnny Crow (6-2, 223); DB Jesse Salisbury (5-11, 170) The big picture: Azle returned to the playoffs last season after a seven-year drought. The Hornets will be in their fourth year under coach Devon Dorris, who will have five returning starters on offense and four on defense. The offensive will be hard-pressed to match last seasons production. Azle averaged 30 points per game, but players such as running back Dalton Cole and 260-pound twin offensive linemen Logan and Landon Todd should be a plus. Juniors Trevor Boiles (6-2, 175) or Jamie King (6-3, 200) should be solid replacement at QB throwing to receivers in Tyler Albers and Matt Delprincipe. With the loss of 29 players to graduation, the Hornets will have to plug in some young players, but Dorris feels confident the talent is there. Last years junior varsity went 10-0. The defense, anchored by nose guard Garrett Tidwell and supported by LB Johnny Crow and DB Jesse Salisbury, should again be physical. Quotable: Basically, we have to find our identity. We need to highlight our strengths and minimize our weaknesses. First, we need to find out what our strengths are. The defense has been in the system for four years and I think theyve developed and know what to do. Coach Devon DorrisWe have a nucleus of good leadership. Our defense will be hard to handle this year. We like to hit people. We can make it back to the playoffs. The offensive line is solid and well be really young, but if they take control, the D will be shutdown. LB Johnny Crow Notable: A loss to Lake Dallas in last years regular-season finale forced Azle to play Birdville in the first round of the playoffs and might have spoiled a deeper run.

If your church or organization is contemplating a fund raising event give some careful thought to the projects you might want to take on as a group. For the young kids you might want to set up a table where they can create a specific craft like the Paper Plate Smiley Face or Paper Plate Mood Faces under … Read More

BRICs and beyond
Coverage and analysis of the world's fastest-growing emerging markets
BRICs and beyond: How Bright Food is furthering its international strategy 14 Oct 2014
State-backed Chinese food giant Bright Food Co. continued to make progress with its "go global, bring in" ambition when it acquired a majority stake in Italian olive oil manufacturer Salov Group last week. The move is typical of Bright's international strategy as the group continues to further its agenda to grow globally and bring overseas brands to Chinese consumers. Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: E-tail could sidestep distribution challenge in China 23 Sep 2014
Alibaba Group's massive IPO has underlined that the e-commerce trade in China is booming. Significantly for packaged food manufacturers, online retailers offer a way to circumvent some of the challenges of distribution in this massive market, enabling them to reach out directly to China's population base. However, the soaring popularity of such enterprises also means competition is intense. Food makers must battle to stand out in the crowded online marketplace. Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: International ambitions underpin BRF, Lactalis dairy deal 9 Sep 2014
The proposed sale of BRF's Brazilian dairies unit to Lactalis-owned Parmalat looks set to be a win-win for both companies. BRF is focusing on improving the performance of its core meat operations and the group would leave the transaction better positioned to step up its expansion into international protein markets. Meanwhile, Lactalis will strengthen its hand in the promising Brazilian dairy sector, leaving the company well-placed as a global dairy powerhouse. Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: Fonterra, Beingmate partnership formula for success 28 Aug 2014
New Zealand dairy giant Fonterra and Chinese baby food maker Beingmate are to form a joint venture to try to capitalise on the exponential growth of the Chinese infant formula sector. With each partner bringing something very different to the table, Katy Askew suggests the new entity is well-placed to leverage the strengths of both.
BRICs and beyond: How Mexico's obesity fight has turned to advertising 4 Aug 2014
Mexico is a country battling diet-related health problems. The nation's diabetes right is the highest among the members of the OECD. Last year, legislation was passed for a tax on high-calorie foods. Now, food manufacturers operating in Mexico have had restrictions placed on their advertising. Paula Krizanovic reports.
BRICs and beyond: Eyeing Egypt: Why firms are queueing up to invest 10 Jul 2014
A new president and a revised investor law for Egypt appears to be restoring business confidence. Last month three food and beverage giants announced plans to invest in expanding operations in the country. But with a growing population and high levels of unemployment, plus a cut in fuel subsidies that could put pressure on the average citizen's pocket, is now really the right time to be eyeing Egypt? Hannah Abdulla explores.
BRICs and beyond: Carrefour exit highlights continued challenges in India 9 Jul 2014
Carrefour's move to exit India underlines the ongoing challenges international retailers and food manufacturers face in the market where restrictions on foreign direct investment and a lack of infrastructure are curbing the development of modern retail. Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: Is there still opportunity in China's biscuit market? 27 Jun 2014
China's biscuit market has seen rapid growth in recent years. However, as the category matures the pace of expansion is slowing. With category leader Mondelez International struggling, is there still room for growth in the sector? Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: The long-term gluten-free opportunity in Russia 13 Jun 2014
Gluten-free is currently a bright spot of strong growth in the largely stagnant developed markets of the US and western Europe. However, as the category matures it is becoming an increasingly crowded space. As such, many forward-looking gluten-free specialists have an eye on fresh markets that will offer the next phase of growth for the sector. Russia is one such market. Katy Askew reports.
BRICs and beyond: Brazil a tough nut to crack for gluten-free foods 11 Jun 2014
Brazil with its vast population and a growing middle class with increasing health concerns, has huge opportunities in the gluten-free sector. But legislation requiring each and every food and drink product in the nation to be labelled gluten-free or not gluten-free has posed significant difficulties for specialist gluten-free firms looking to break into the country and make their ranges stand-out. Is there a future for gluten-free specialists in Brazil? Hannah Abdulla explores.
BRICs and beyond: Japan's food giants look to south-east Asia for growth 15 May 2014
Japanese food manufacturers are targeting countries in south-east Asia as key export markets. As they extend their presence in the region, Japan's food exporters hope to benefit from the perceived sophisticated, fashionable and healthy image of Japanese food products. Julian Ryall reports.
BRICs and beyond: Currency controls leave Venezuelan food sector in crisis 12 May 2014
Food manufacturers based in Venezuela have long struggled to supply the country's oil-fuelled economy amidst strict government controls and shortages of many key industry inputs. And recent changes to the country's currency regime could - say analysts and business leaders - intensify existing problems in the industry. Andrew Rosati reports.
BRICs and beyond: Logistics remains key challenge to Indian expansion 1 Apr 2014
Getting products on shelves is a significant challenge for food manufacturers and retailers in India, where an under-developed supply chain hampers such efforts. International food groups and logistics companies are working to overcome the lack of infrastructure and, for companies who can offer solutions, a significant commercial opportunity exists. Raghavendra Verma reports.
Confectionery: BRICs and beyond: China a sweet spot for gum makers 24 Mar 2014
Chewing gum manufacturers have seen sales come under pressure in developed markets in North America and Europe but other parts of the world are providing growth - and China is one such market. Dean Best reports.
BRICs and beyond: Local factors hindering grocery retail in India 30 Jan 2014
Poor logistics, including a lack of infrastructure and trained manpower, keep modern branded food retail from actualising its potential in India, industry experts have warned.

Best Attractions & Activities: Given its name by President Teddy Roosevelt, The White House boasts 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms and six levels in the residence. The 55,000 square foot home has served as a safe harbor for U.S. Presidents since 1800 and welcomed leaders and dignitaries from around the world. Decisions on World Wars, crises and ground breaking policies have all taken place behind these walls. While it is famously missing its cornerstone, the historic site also features a tennis court, jogging track, swimming pool, movie theater, billiard room and bowling alley. White is a tough color to keep clean and it takes 570 gallons of paint to cover the outside walls. Metro: Federal Triangle or Metro Center
Historic Sites: Let's just be blunt -- no trip to Washington, D.C. is complete with a visit to the White House. The most famous home in America, if not the world, the White House is a living museum and has been the site of some of the most historic moments in our nation's history. More than 130 rooms make up the current home of the U.S. president -- and every president before with the exception of George Washington. There is also a visitor's center with informative exhibits and we might also suggest taking a walk around the White House -- the speakers and sometimes protesters in Lafayette Square, the impressive security and the beautifully landscaped lawns all make for an amazing afternoon.
Architecture: No trip to DC would be complete without paying a visit to the stately home of every US President (except George Washington). Tours are available on a first-come, first-served basis for groups of 10 or more. To arrange a tour, contact your Member of Congress two to six months in advance; the exact tour time is then scheduled one month prior to the date requested. If you're unable to secure reservations, check out the White House Visitor Center at the corner of 15th and E Streets (in the Department of Commerce Building). Here, via an informative documentary video, you can tour the White House virtually and view exhibits focusing on the residences of former presidents. METRO: Federal Triangle, Metro Center, McPherson Square

For Scandal fans, the appetite for the show's trademark high impact drama, intrigue, and, of course, scandal, was left less than satiated last season after Kerry Washington's pregnancy resulted in the number of episodes in season three being cut from 22 down to 18. That, along with the many months that have passed since that dramatic season three finale have left many of the Gladiators ravenous! So, now that season four is almost upon us (the 25th!) where did we leave off? Warning: this post will contain spoilers so if you haven't caught up to the season three finale you can easily binge-watch all the episodes online or on demand through DirecTV or your cable provider. Once you've done that, come back here and refresh your brain again for the premiere!
We last saw Olivia on board a plane, heading to an undisclosed location that turns out to be a beach, along with Jake. Following both the revelation that Mellie was raped by Fitz's father and their son Jerry's death, Fitz ran back to Mellie, leaving Olivia in the dust, again. After a season of back and forth between Jake and Fitz, Olivia chose Jake (well, really Fitz didn't choose Olivia). How this will pan out in the next season is likely to be more of the same; Olivia being pulled in both directions, with perhaps more of an edge to Jake given the fact that they've been away together for two months before she ultimately returns to D.C. in the season four premiere. No doubt, Olivia has been lured home by Fitz who, off the sympathy of the voters following his son's death, won his election.
As far as the death of Jerry, and Adnan, well, they were all Eli's doing. After a season of trying to convince Olivia (and us) that he isn't a monster and her mom (Maya) is, turns out they're both pretty awful people. Eli killed Jerry as revenge for Fitz "taking" his daughter as well as a way to get B613 started up again with him in charge in order to hunt down Maya on behalf of Fitz. As far as Maya goes, it looks like her days of running amok are over as we last saw her in the famous hole at B613 headquarters, where Eli is sure to thoroughly enjoy torturing her.

The shutdown fallout
By Holly Martin
You'll notice in this week's paper that we are missing many of our regular features. You can thank Congress and the president.
The government shutdown has closed the national monuments and national parks and now it's reached the High Plains. The service that we all use to help us make financial decisions in risky commodity markets has been shut down.
For us that means no access to USDA reported livestock sales, area hay markets, crop reports or grain markets. And while we know that those sales are continuing—because it appears that everyone but Congress is still working—we don't have access to the reporters that typically report the prices of those sales.
Some of the markets are state-reported, but even those offices typically use the USDA website to distribute their reports. We've been able to get a few of them via the old-fashioned method of fax machines.
Please bear with us as we try to deliver you as much information as possible without access to the normal resources. We know knowledge is the key to success and that's even more true when working to try to maximize your profits in markets that can change quickly.
In the meantime, if you would like to get in touch with your representatives and senators and tell them exactly how this government shutdown is affecting you, by all means, do so.
To me, the whole mess is just downright infuriating. We have no farm bill. The government is not functioning. And don't even get me started on the debt limit debate.
A friend of mine suggested that we send a group of 4-Hers to Washington to settle this whole mess. They know how to run a meeting, resolve conflict and get things done. Amen.
A co-worker recently made her quarrelling sons hold hands until they could get along. Think of transferring this philosophy to Washington. What if Boehner and Obama had to sit on the steps of the Capitol until they came to some agreement? That thought will make you smile.
Seriously, people. You don't have to like each other. You don't have to agree on everything. You do have to do what's best for this nation and that's not an extended fight that damages the people you were elected to serve.
Someone—I suggest the nation's highest leader—needs to start showing some leadership and working with the two sides and finding a compromise. This name calling, pointing and saying, "HE did it!" doesn't get us anywhere.
And if you can't get it done, we'll call the 4-H or FFA kids—or better yet, their moms—to help you find a way to work out a compromise.
But I suggest you figure it out on your own, because you don't want me to come up there. Trust me.

Lee Ermey by Elizabeth Sheld 14 Jan 2014 post a comment The Sportsman Channel will debut a new show on April 24 at 8:30pm called "Saving Private K-9" hosted by Full Metal Jacket actor R. Lee Ermey. The show is about the 2500 trained canines that serve in the military and law enforcement and their handlers. The show focuses on the training and heroic accomplishments of "man's best friend." Viewers will also learn about the lives of these heroes after their services is completed. "When R. Lee Ermey speaks, people listen. Sportsman Channel is extremely proud to bring Ermey on board to host Saving Private K-9," said Marc Fein, Executive V.P., Programming and Production of the Sportsman Channel. "This show is a great opportunity for America to see our four-legged, sometimes forgotten heroes in action," said Ermey. "So many of us have no idea of the level of dedication and training it takes to prepare a dog for a life of service. This show will spread light on this process." R. Lee Ermey served in the U.S. Marines for 11 years before retiring. While serving in the Marine Corp as a civilian, Ermey was promoted to Gunnery Sergeant. He is most famous for his role as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman is Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket.

Toxin-producing stem cells fight brain tumors where it matters most
When it comes to new tumor-fighting treatments, it's often as much about location, location, location as it is the actual drug interaction. Cytoxin-producing stem cells produced by scientists at Harvard University lodge at the site of brain tumor removal to continually attack remaining tumor cells. As an alternative to drug treatments that can be invasive or ineffective, the researchers saw promising results against glioblastomas, which hold the dubious distinction of being the most common and most fatal brain cancer.

Portable iBox Nano cuts size and cost of 3D resin printing
Bigger is better is generally the mantra when it comes to consumer 3D printers. This is despite the majority of users likely to be only printing smaller objects anyway. Targeting such users, iBox is introducing the smaller-scaled iBox Nano, a portable resin-based 3D printer designed specifically to print cheaply, easily, and quietly at a price far below larger UV-based resin machines, while still maintaining a good print quality.

Apps to easily encrypt your text messaging and mobile calls
Mobile phone users are becoming more savvy to the potential security risks of standard, unencrypted text messaging and wary of government intrusion into everyday communications. Some consumers require encrypted phone calls for information-sensitive business requirements and others just don't like the idea of others prying into their personal lives. Gizmag takes a look at a sampling of the apps available for iOS and Android (and sometimes desktop) to encrypt mobile communications, both text messaging and phone calls. Read More
Hybrid Play morphs playgrounds into mobile game controllers

Propane is an appealing fuel, easily stored and already used worldwide, but it's extracted from the finite supply of fossil fuels – or is it?

Babies don't come with instruction manuals, so the saying goes.

Allowing consumers to identify counterfeit goods is a tricky and expensive problem, as many security measures such as holograms might be easily mimicked by counterfeiters. A new nanoscale printing technique, however, allows researchers to create labels that reveal a "watermarked" image when breathed upon by the consumer. The labels are scalable and durable, and can be applied to many surfaces, yet are beyond the hands of those who might try to mimic them to fool consumers. Read More

Cancer screening with a simple "universal" blood test
Although many dread the prick of a blood test, most would find it a preferable testing method to invasive and expensive biopsies. That's why a blood test for cancer is the goal of many research efforts, including one at the University of Bradford in the UK, where researchers are claiming to have devised a simple universal blood test for the disease that relies on the fact that white blood cells in cancer patients are already damaged from battling cancerous cells.

The Elven Alliance: Community Edition 1.3May 4, 2014 Full Version 15 comments
Please note that you do not need any of the older versions of TEA:CE installed. TEA:CE 1.3 is all you need and is the most up to date version of the mod...
Back in 2006, Celeglin released the second beta version of The Elven Alliance (TEA). While the mod was both popular and successful (e.g., made the top 100 mod of the year list in 2006), there was still a lot of unfinished work that needed to be completed. Unfortunately, Celeglin became busy with other things, and he never had the opportunity to continue work on his mod. As such, many fans were disappointed that the mod was never fully completed. After much discussion, the T3A staff and community decided that it was their responsibility to finish TEA and address any balance and bug issues contained in beta 0.9. Due to being unable to contact Celeglin and perhaps straying from his original intentions, the mod was given a new subtitle as to not confuse who the author was of the modified version. The new project became known as The Elven Alliance:Community Edition (TEA:CE).
TEA:CE has just released it's fourth version (version 1.3). The project has evolved over the years, but the original purpose and design has remained the same. Below is some information about what the mod project hopes to accomplish when finished.
The intentions and goals in this edition:

DISCLAIMER: If Celeglin does return and does not approve of the community edition project, the project will stop immediately and the download will be removed. Also, the original version of Celeglin's mod will still be available to download. It can be found here.

Version 1.3 contains significant changes to the AI and campaign (both good and bad). The Hard Mode AI has been adjusted to be more balanced, and the campaign has been adjusted for increased difficulty and challenges! More balance changes and bug fixes are included in Version 1.3. Finally, a camera system has been included in the mod.
A few things to note:
Please note that you do not need any of the older versions of TEA:CE installed. TEA:CE 1.3 is all you need and is the most up to date version of the mod...
Version 1.2 contains the highly anticipated Elven AI! Every skirmish map now can utilize the Elven AI for fun and exciting battles! In addition, the hard...
best mod for bfme 1 ^^
Cool a new release! :D
Run the installer.
What will you add for next new version of mod?
I am not sure if this will be another version.

Is this mod still in progress
Really love this mod, BFME really needed an Elven element that wasn't a part of Rohan.

Fire Regime
As devastating as it may appear, fire is a natural process, and Joshua Tree National Park has endured centuries of lightning-caused fires. Although fire in deserts has been less common than in forests because shrubs and trees are widely spaced in deserts and grasses not as abundant as in wetter areas.
The park maintains records of fires dating back to 1945. Most of these fires occurred between May 18 and September 20 when desert vegetation was very dry. Seventy-four percent of the fires were ignited by lightning. The remaining 26 percent were human caused.
The number and intensity of lightning fires has increased over the past 50 years. Before 1965 most lightning fires burned less than one-quarter acre. After 1965 more large fires and more frequent fires have been recorded. In 1979 the Quail Mountain fire burned 6,000 acres; in 1995 the Covington fire burned 5,158 acres. And in 1999, the largest fire in Joshua Tree's history, the Juniper Complex fire burned 13,894 acres of slow-growing California junipers, pinyon pines, and Joshua trees.
Desert plants do not need fire to reproduce and many are highly susceptible to fire. The desert does grow back but recovery after a fire is slow. Joshua trees frequently resprout after a fire, but because they are more susceptible to drought and rodents eating their bark, they often die. Even small shrubs like blackbrush may require 50 years to return to pre-fire densities. Also, non-native grasses are quick to invade burned areas and usurp the habitat of native vegetation.
The key to managing fire in Joshua Tree is in understanding how wildfires affect vegetation and wildlife in a desert environment. Biologists are monitoring the long-term consequences of fire in desert ecosystems, as well as the effectiveness of treatments designed to hasten recovery.
To help preserve and protect wildlife, scenery, and natural processes, each park develops its own Fire Management Plan. At Joshua Tree, our current plan provides for full suppression of all fires, including those naturally caused, until we have a better understanding of fire behavior and fire effects in the park and across the Mojave Desert.

Six things we learnt about charities and technology this week
28 Nov 2014
The ninth Charity Technology Conference took place on Wednesday and Civil Society News has collated some...
Sorry for interrupting, but there is something we need to tell you...

Community organisations are just small fries when it comes to the government's preferred service delivery partners. Just take the Olympic catering as an example, says Robert Ashton.
Danny Boyle's Olympic opening ceremony will be a proud display of all that is British. The new McDonald's restaurant, capable of serving 1,200 people an hour will not. And that, in a nutshell, is what's wrong with our country right now.
You see we can organise, and our government will commission, artistic endeavour that highlights our national tradition, heritage and culture. But although we seem able to feed our minds, organising ourselves to feed people in the Olympic village is considered too challenging.
Sure McDonalds are major sponsors and have bought the right to exclusivity. There's nothing wrong with McDonalds either; it's cheap, nutritious and for most British children, the culinary treat of choice. But let's be honest, it's American, just like Coca-Cola. Why not Cornish pasties, fish & chips or roast pork sandwiches?
To those charged with organising the games, it was simply far easier to take the Mac millions than to consider any alternative. People need to be fed, quickly, safely and reliably. To use a smaller, more indigenous provider would showcase British food to a world audience, but take more time and raise less sponsorship.
It's the same argument government must have used when deciding not to give any of the £80bn 'Government Funding for Lending Scheme' cash to the CDFI movement. Yes, they lend to those that banks turn down. Yes, they have lots of success stories and yes, they are all 'not-for-profit', but they're simply not convenient. We live in a 'one-size-fits-all' world. Government prefer the big, single contract providers to the complexity of nurturing those working at the grassroots.
It's why A4E does so nicely out of the Work Programme and G4S were trusted to find an additional 8,000 security staff for the Olympics.
The paradox of course is clear. 'Big Society' was about a bottom-up, community-led, economically-viable renaissance. But when it comes to the crunch, government always seems to buy the big, bland and boring solution. As we already know, those solutions don't always deliver. 'Would you like fries with that?'

Cut clutter, save time cleaning
Generations of families typically spring clean, yet some who might once have easily finished vacuuming, dusting and washing windows, can find themselves overwhelmed with clutter.
Newspapers, magazines, mail, bills or other papers needing attention, toys, games, laundry, etc. can pile up, said Denise Dias, K-State Research and Extension agent in Sedgwick County, who's recently been studying up and offering programs on controlling clutter in the home.
Getting organized and reducing or eliminating clutter need not be difficult--or time consuming, said Dias, who suggested making a three-column chart listing 1) Clutter Categories; 2) When to Sort, and 3) Who is Responsible.
The chart would look something like this:
Clutter Category When to Sort Who is Responsible
Newspapers and magazines weekly Jim
Mail, bills, books and papers daily Denise
Laundry daily Everyone
Toys and games daily Darren and Sue
Enlisting the family's help shares the responsibility and pride in a job well done, Dias said.
"It may take four or more weeks to get everyone on board," said Dias, who recommended standing firm.
Nurturing a positive, can-do attitude can help to build self-confidence and self-esteem, said Dias, noting that working together to control clutter will save time cleaning and free up time for other activities.
More information on organizing the home is available at K-State Research and Extension offices throughout the state and online: www.ksre.ksu.edu.

Winter Wonderland Lyrics - Faith Hill
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay, is the new bird
Singing our song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say are you married? We'll say, no man
But you can do the job when you're in town
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down
When it snows, ain't it thrillin'?
Though you know, kids are chillin'
We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland

About ziomorti (twitter: @giargiagames)
Hello there!
I'm an Italian game designer. I like looking for new and original game mechanics.
Still a total noob...
ziomorti's Trophies
ziomorti's Archive
One More Bullet – Post Mortem
Well, another Ludum Dare has ended! So it's time to wrap things up a see how it went and share thoughts with all of you, ludum darers.
First of all this was my first time doing the Jam with a team and I have to say I had a lot more fun, even if we worked only few hours. The LD48 "compo" is awesome and maybe more rewarding (if you succeed) but in the end I think next time I will try again to form a team and participate in the Jam.
The team was formed by:
Jacopo – Design / Development
Umberto – Graphics
Marco(me) – Design / Audio
The game we created for the Jam is One More Bullet (Go.Play.Now.Read.Next).
In this game you take up the role of a bandit/cowboy during a duel vs another bandit/cowboy and, you have to shot your only one bullet by pressing the right keyboard button at the right time.
(Ready.. Shoot.. Die..)
We worked on this on Sunday.
And Saturday?
Well.. we worked on this:
Yeah.. walls and a ball
Erm.. well, in the beginning only me and Jacopo were participating and, since we don't have any graphic skills (like none at all) we were thinking on something that we could work on without depending on great graphics. So we were focused on a physics based puzzle game (that wasn't even working gameplay-wise). Luckily Umberto spawned Saturday evening so we were able to change the project and start from scratch with a more solid concept.
What we ended up with is this:
You won't last long Gary Maccarone…
So, to sum it up:
What went right
- Even if we worked only a few hours the game is pretty solid and polished
- We can extend it with not that much work
- Lots of fun
- Cowboy names are awesome (added them like in the last 5 minutes)
- Dat whistle…
What went wrong
- Started "real" work too late and with lots of dead moments
- Even if the game is solid and polished and we can extend it, there isn't much room for improvements (it's a minigame and it will never grow wings)
- No music :/
- Dat whistle…
One More Bullet – Done!
We made it! You can find the entry here
One More Bullet is a dueling game with typing-game mechanics.
You have to press the right key at the right time in order to win the duel.
The game was made really, REALLY fast, and we are planning to update it in the next few days (multiplayer mode?)…
…so, stay tuned!
One More Bullet (Jam – WIP)
Hi there!
This is our game for the Jam, it is called "One More Bullet"
The idea is that during a western shootout "You only get one" shot, so we made a small dueling game. You have to press the right keyboard key in a small amount of time in order to win the duel.
The game will feature both a singleplayer "endless" mode with increasing difficulty and a 2-player mode (on the same keyboard).
Evil Solitaire WIP 2
A couple of screens before going to bed:
One of the enemies
Luckily I made up my mind regarding gameplay so tomorrow I will be able to start "coding". And this is great.
The actual game will be a bit different from the screenshot but no biggies..
Unfortunately I didn't have a lot of time today, and it's a shame because I think the idea is really cool… well, we'll see! Nite!
Evil Solitaire WIP
Progress report
The day is coming to an end (here in Italy) so it's time for a small report on today's progress.
I started kind of late and I struggled a bit finding an idea that matched the theme completely but still I'm moving forward. I decided to go with a platform game (first platform ever for me) with a gnome, and I'm trying to twist it a bit with some cool mechanic.
So far I have 2 and a half working levels with placeholder graphics (not that my "real" graphics would be THAT better); I hope to finish the third working level and to write down something for the fourth before going to sleep
Aaaand here's a screenshot:
Aaaaaand… I'm in!
Hello there! Been quite lazy lately and skipped a few jams, but I absolutely can't miss this, so: I'm fucking in!
I'm gonna use:
- Construct 2 to create an HTML5 game
- Audacity for sound effects, musagi for music and, maybe, sfxr (if I run out of time)
- Inkscape and GIMP for graphics
And of course I'm gonna try to do something absolutely unique and crazy (hope the theme will help :D).
See you on the battlefield Ludum Darers!
height – Mini LD #31
Hello there!
This is my "Mini entry" for Mini LD #31. It's called "height" and tries to deal with fear in an unusual way (but I will deal with that in a post mortem).
This is my entry link or you can play it directly on my website.
SOPA censorator 3000x – SOPAjam
Hey there Ludum Darers! This is my entry for SOPAjam, the almighty: "SOPA censorator 3000x"
You can see the entry here or play it directly on my website. (best viewed with Chrome)
First Ludum Dare… first post mortem.
Hello there!
Submitted yesterday my entry for the compo and you can find it HERE (and rate it, if you wish). It's called Do NOT Hug Me! and it's some kind of action/beat 'em up. This is like the third game ever developed by me and I'm pretty satisfied with the result (and by the overall experience). Unfortunately I did not manage to make a timelapse video, but next time I'm sure I will.
SO.. moving on to analyze what went wrong and what went right.
What went wrong -
- I did not have a clear idea for the gameplay and the mechanics when I started, so I wasted a lot of time changing on the fly.
- The game is pretty short and a bit exploitable.
- The animations are bugged.
- Menu and interface are poor; also the game is not explained very well.
- Learning a tool you never used before during the 48 hours is not a good idea (although that wasn't a problem).
- Bad time management. "Wasted" a lot of time testing.
- Couldn't sleep for too much caffeine and excitement (on that I think the caffeine was guilty).
- I finished the game.
- The game is fun (IMHO) and quite original.
- It's web based so potentially playable by everyone.
- I had a lot of fun.
- Graphics are not so bad.
- Learned a lot.
