Marvelous has released the first screenshots of its Little King's Story sequel.
Yesterday Famitsu revealed the game, which it says is called 'The King, The Demon King and the Seven Princesses: New King Story' in Japan, and will be ditching the Nintendo Wii in favour of Sony's upcoming handheld.
According to the few details Famitsu had on offer the sequel will have a swanky new visual style and a 'love' dynamic. From the looks of these screens the art-style isn't a huge departure from the first game, although the color palette is noticeably less vibrant.
As well as ditching the Wii Marvelous has also parted ways with Rising Star Games, which published Little King's Story. The sequel will be published by Konami.

I opened up a 4-gang wallplate in our kitchen with blank inserts to see what's inside. The attached photo shows the wiring inside. There are about eight of these wires hand labelled A-G. Does anyone know what these are? My best guess is that that they are speaker cables. There are in-wall Polk Audio speakers in the kitchen. But these don't look like typical speaker cables that I've ever seen. The wallplate is right above the counter. We bought the house about 2 years ago, but the house is ~80 years old so who knows when this was installed. |

No idea. That's something the previous owner cobbled together. That is nothing standard right there. |
Perhaps some remote control for the audio? Do you know where the wires go to? Any other blanks around the house you haven't opened? |
Could have been for an intercom. |
If its In the kitchen it's prob an intercom. The main intercom box usually goes I the kitchen. The letters are prob letters to tell you which room it is. |
It could also be what remains of an old low voltage switching system like TouchPlate or Remcon for instance. These systems used low volt wires at each switch location for the lighting, and often there was a master switch box somewhere that would control many or all of the lighting from one location. The relays were located near the electrical panel. These systems were "state of the art" and normally used in high end homes. |
- Posted by bus_driver (My Page) on Wed, Mar 12, 14 at 17:50
The master switch for low-voltage relay systems typically was in the bedroom. Convenient to darken the whole house at night or to turn on everything in case of suspected break-in. Having all the lights come on sure confuses an intruder. |

Will Contested
Conspiracy theories aside, argues Shakespearean scholar James Shapiro, Shakespeare really did write Shakespeare.
Could the creator of Hamlet and Macbeth really have been a regular guy from the sticks who spent a lot of time worrying about low-brow things like making a living? Or was he (or she) a person with the background befitting such a genius? An earl, perhaps. Maybe a famed philosopher scientist. Or a certain grand lady who may have had spare time to write "King Lear" when she wasn't busy ruling England.
Great minds have ruminated over the was-Shakespeare-really-Shakespeare question for more than two centuries, and many have come up with a seductive answer: no way.
Helen Keller doubted the bard was that genial balding man in the portrait. So did Mark Twain and Sigmund Freud. More recently, Supreme Court justices have joined the train of doubt.
But it's all hogwash and flapdoodle, claims Shakespeare scholar James Shapiro, who uses a variety of classier words to make his case in a convincing new book.
Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare? won't resolve the debate, of course. But it manages to make doubters sound like addled conspiracy theorists, no mean feat considering that many of them are (or were) well-respected thinkers.

Podolski admits move error
04 Sep 2008 - 09:47:10
Lukas Podolski has risked the wrath of Bayern Munich after claiming his move to the Allianz Arena has been bad for his career.
Podolski, 23, joined the Bavarian giants from FC Koln after his starring role in Germany's march to the semi-finals of the 2006 World Cup on home soil.
But after two seasons in which he has seen his starting opportunities limited, Podolski has questioned the wisdom of joining Bayern ahead of a host of other interested suitors.
He said: "I wouldn't have (joined) had I known that things were going to turn out like this.
"I'm not complaining though. I'm just not happy with the situation."
However, Podolski has again hinted that he would be open to a transfer away from the Allianz Arena.
"I would be a bad footballer if I contented myself by sitting on the bench," he continued.
"I could tolerate it if it was a case of two or three weeks, but there comes a point when one has to draw the line and say: 'This is too much. I'm not making any progress here'."

Does anyone know why there are no DWF thumbnails available in Windows Explorer? Windows 7 64 bit is the operating system. The were always available with Windows XP.
Thank you for your feedback.
So far, ADR does not support the 64bit operation system to show DWF thumbnails in Windows Explorer.
Are there plans to allow DWF thumbnails in the future? This company relies heavily on this function. I did notice that the DWF thumbnails are also not available in Vault.
Out of curiosity, would you mind expanding the acronyms in your signature

6yr.old Napoleon gas fireplace #GD36NTR professionally installed, worked great for 5-3/4 yrs. untill recently. Will, from time to time, not ignite when switched on. Works better when switched when cold. Unit will appear to be functioning good and then suddenly the flame goes out for no apparent reason. Sometimes it will re-ignite right away and sometimes not for a brief period of time......Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank-you |

Although these units have very few moving parts, they do need periodic preventive maintenance, probably best done by a professional. Ours, a different brand, is still too new to need any maintenance -- preventive or otherwise. How often you do it depends in part on how much you use it, assuming that certain components get dirty and need cleaning out. I think once a year is probably too often unless you use it as a main source of heat. But I haven't anwered your question. I think it needs diagnosis by a professional who knows exactly what to do to troubleshoot. Here's my speculation: If the thing sometimes stops firing spontaneously, and then goes back on spontaneously, that suggests that the vent that provides oxygen to feed the combustion may be partly clogged. That should not happen if the right kind of cap was installed on the chimney, but it's still possible after a period of time. If you can easily get to the chimney top without risking life and limb, go up there and see if anything obvious is clogging it. |
Thanks for your response. Fireplace has been serviced each year and approx. 4 months prior to this problem. Should have said that when the unit quits it will only respond when the wall switch is turned off then on. However, propose to have the service rep. take a look. Better safe than sorry... |

Odds are that the pilot burner is dirty or the wall switch is defective and needs to be replaced. Presumably the pilot has been cleaned when the fireplace has been serviced, so I'd try taking the wall switch out of the wall and shorting the wires together, which mimics closing the switch. If that causes the fireplace toi turn on reliably, install a new switch. |

I was wanting to get a plastic carboy for fermentation. Can I use a purified 5gal water jug as one or would this not work properly? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
I wouldn't. I use a 6 gallon carboy at minimum. You'll need some extra space for 5 gallon brews. My favorite fermenter is my 7.8 gallon plastic bucket that I picked up at my local home-brew store. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew
My local home brew shop talks up the better bottles like crazy. For a non lager fermentation(or anything else over a few weeks) they sound like the way to go. I have a glass carboy for a wine I'm making and I can see why people suggest plastic. The glass is quite heavy especially when filled and also kinda fragile. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
I use buckets for primary and then transfer to 5 gallon Better Bottles for secondary/brightening. I don't need to see what's going on in the bucket during primary but it's nice to be able to see stuff clear in secondary. I use these in the buckets and get the ported Better Bottles with the racking adapter. That lets me get every drop of goodness out of both.

Relationships and Community
I don't pretend to be an authority of any kind, but I've learned a lot about living with and loving people by doing it. I have been married three times. All three marriages ended in divorce. I did, at least, make different mistakes each time! And I've certainly been involved with people who I did not marry. No, really!
I am honored to have enjoyed a fourteen-year life partnership with Sam that was, for most of that time, the deepest and healthiest relationship I ever experienced. I learned a great deal from it.
And over the course of time, I've been a custodial and non-custodial mother and stepmother, as well as a step-grandmother. I've lived in nuclear families (my parents are still married to each other after all these years) and blended families and on my own (before and after becoming a parent) with and without kids and as part of a couple without kids or one with kids visiting on the weekends. I've been in monogamous and intentionally non-monogamous relationships. I've been through the remarriage, divorce and death of my daughter's father. All this stuff adds up to a lot of life lived in 47 years, and that's before all that I've learned from observing others' relationships. Oh — did I mention that I am apparently related to the entire population of Alabama and most of that of north Georgia? Lots of material right there in the family.
I don't consider relationships that end or change to be failures. I realize that there is a school of belief that says every romantic relationship is supposed to be "happily ever after." That's right up there with the whole "soulmates" meme for causing harm, as far as I'm concerned.
People change. Sometimes they change in ways that cause them to no longer be compatible with their partners. The healthiest way to deal with that, I think, is to admit it, mourn the loss, and try to change the relationship to one that does work for all involved. That avoids the drama and hard feelings that come with assuming that such relationships have "failed," and the concomitant harm from the people involved considering themselves failures.
Relationships are not about winning and losing, or keeping score in any way. They are successful if they contribute to the well-being of those involved in them. That don't have to last forever to do so.
I am more and more convinced that healthy relationships can only be built by healthy people who know what they want, ask for it, fulfill their commitments, and live a very conscious, intentional life. Relationships take work. They take skills that are the same across all types of relationships, whether romantic, familial, business, academic, social — you name it. At one time my dear friend Ron and I were talking about the "life curriculum" Sam and I had set up for our kids, and one of the things that he brought up were relationship skills. That wasn't on my list before, and I realized that their presence is a major contributor to a person's overall functionality and happiness in life.
I also believe that children are best raised surrounded by people with whom they can have long-lasting relationships. People of all ages, related by blood or not, who care about them. In fact, the more diversity the better, as far as I'm concerned. They'll be able to connect with people who aren't their parents, they'll see how other families live and love, they'll see how other people parent, they'll see what other people with different kinds of jobs or educations live. They can ask questions they might not wish to ask their parents. I grew up with a very large extended family. Our children didn't have that much blood family nearby, but they were surrounded by our family of choice, as we were truly blessed with deep friendships with incredible people.

Comments about Hickey Freeman Hampton Grey Stripe:
I love these frames, and I'd recommend them to anybody. Aside from the fact that my nose hits above where the nose pieces are and that makes it uncomfortable after all-day use, these are my most favorite pair ever. The sizing-issue was my fault, not the frames. I got these on the first pair free deal and I cannot complain a bit. These were designated as backup glasses until I wore them the first time. STILL haven't worn my old pair since. Very fashionable frames.
-Definitely not as flimsy as some more expensive frames I've tried, but not quite as strengthy as my old pair. I wouldn't recommend these for the super-athletic sport enthusiasts. I'd be concerned for their safety if I wore these while riding a Norwegian battle bear down the rocky slides of some jagged Brazilian mountaintop. At that point you wouldn't even need glasses because you'd already have CYBER-EYES.
Another thing: The color is exactly if not slightly darker than the pictures on this site. Don't worry about it being 'too light', because it isn't. It's not black either. It's dark grey. But aside, I've gotten a lot of good comments on them.

Comments about Hickey Freeman Hampton Grey Stripe:
I picked this pair of glasses because they were similar to a like-styled Persol which didn't have a gray color available.
I really like the overall thinness of the frames around the lenses, the (thin) gunmetal finished sides, and especially the fact that these are both acetate and metal so they're the right amount of attention grabbing while staying very unique. Another plus, no nose pads on the bridge [to break].
I'm 25. This is my first pair of glasses ever, and my sight's not too terrible. When i first put these on, it was kind of weird and I had to question my rx accuracy... but the fact that my eyes adjusted in about a minute probably means that my rx and these glasses are appropriate. I'm definitely still getting used to them.
The anti-glare treatment's good, at least out of the box.

Coming home from Dragon's Den, Kevin, Kid Icarus and Duke stop off on the medieval world of Nottingham to fill up the Warp Wagon. Kid Icarus goes into a weapons shop to buy a new string for his bow. Him, Kevin, and Duke prevent the Sheriff and Prince John from robbing the place, and defeat the Sheriff's soldiers, as well- with a little help from Robin Hood. Robin passes out the gold that was stolen to the poor. Kid Icarus is made fun of by Little John and Friar Tuck for looking like a fairy. Kid Icarus bets that he can outshoot them all, and intends to prove it at the Archery Tournament that afternoon. The winner gets a golden arrow, and Robin decides to enter as well. Meanwhile, Maid Marian, a prisoner of the Sheriff and Prince John, overhears them plotting to capture Robin at the tournament. They believe that even if he comes in disguise, whoever wins must be Robin.
At the tournament, Prince John sits on the throne, disguised as Maid Marian. Kid Icarus and the Sheriff are the final two contestants. Kid Icarus hits the bulls-eye, but the Sheriff steals his buzzsaw arrow, gets a bullseye, splitting Kid Icarus' arrow in half, and wins the tournament. When Robin goes up to "Maid Marian" and asks for the prize and a kiss, Prince John reveals himself and has his guards seize Robin. Kevin jumps to his rescue, but the Sheriff points out Maid Marian, standing on the balcony of the tower where she's being held, and demands that everyone at the tournament surrenders to him. Robin offers himself in exchange for Marian. Marian cries out in protest and falls off the balcony. Kid Icarus grabs the golden arrow and shoots Maid Marian. The arrow forms a bubble around her, and she floats safely down into Robin's arms, much to the Sheriff's annoyance. Later on, Kid Icarus is officially inducted into the Merry Men, and becomes known as Archer Icarus.

All my hen and chick plants are fine except for this one its weirdly shaped. It used to be normal but not now. What's wrong with it and how can I save it. (Please note I just watered it's not soggy) |

Hard to tell. The pic would appear to be upside down. Josh |
Is it indoors? It is winter so they probably are dormant. Which means water them every 2 or 3 weeks at the earliest. I think thats not the problem still, its that its indoors. I have 2 small semps, a little smaller than urs, that look the same. I hardy water them. But all my semps outside in the -20c weather look very happy. Semps dont do well indoors it seems. Still, Im not sure whats the real cause. Lets wait for a pro to answer :) |
- Posted by rosemariero z10/24 SDiego areaCA (My Page) on Mon, Jan 6, 14 at 18:41
When people say "hen & chicks", I think of Sempervivums. But Echeveria are sometimes called that as well. Your plant looks like an Echeveria to me, perhaps E. derenbergii (or 'Dondo', maybe). It is normal for the lower leaves to dry up. The soil you have it in, looks mostly organic. It would probably do better in something that would drain well. Even though it's winter (I see you're in zone 6--wherever that is), it still could use a bit of water. People who live in the same climate as you can chime in here as to how they care for plants. Sempervivums are more hardy than Echeveria. I would give it as much sun as possible (or lights). |

it is a cactus |

Michael, you said you had other Sempervivum. Are they in this pic? A few of those look like Echeveria. Do they have any cilia (hairs) on the sides of the leaves? |
- Posted by michael1846 6 (My Page) on Wed, Jan 8, 14 at 22:03
Hmm i don't know I thought I only had 1 echeveria in this and the rest were semps stonecrop panda plant or aeonium |
- Posted by dirt_farmer 6 (My Page) on Thu, Jan 9, 14 at 0:39
How did the cactus get into your terrarium? Was it a volunteer that came in the soil ? |
- Posted by rosemariero z10/24 SDiego areaCA (My Page) on Thu, Jan 9, 14 at 11:57
Okay, I see all those plants you mention, but I'm thinking the ones you think are Sempervivum may be Echeveria as well. Maybe not. I would need to see closer pix of those to determine if so. This is your temporary home for them for the winter, right? I think all would've done better in separate pots. I still think your 1st plant pictured needs a bit of water. Are there hairs on the edges of the leaves of the ones you think are Semps? |

i agree they all needed to be in seperate pots but most of the plants i got on an impulse at different times so i stuck them in the terrarium like the cactus. i will get you a close up picture later k :) |

MARIN, Calif. -- A family of four poisoned by carbon monoxide fumes from a faulty heater at their Point Reyes Station home was doing fine Monday morning after being whisked to Marin General Hospital by county paramedics.
The parents, along with their son and daughter, thought they had the flu for the past three days as all suffered from flu-like symptoms, but when the two children became listless Monday morning the parents called 911 and were told by a dispatcher to get out of the house.
Marin County fire Capt. Rick Wonneberger said fire personnel took the four to Marin General shortly after 9 a.m. Monday "where they are doing well."
A faulty propane wall heater was to blame, he said, adding a landlord was fixing it and installing carbon monoxide detectors.
"They got sick," he said. "They had flu-like symptoms for three days and it got progressively worse."
Monday morning, "the kids were not acting normally, they weren't responding and were very sleepy," Wonneberger said.
That's when the parents decided to call for help, and just in time, because carbon monoxide poisoning can be deadly.

Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. The Unincorporated Woman being the third volume in The Unincorporated Man quartet, is the beginning of the end, in both the story and the quality. As mentioned in my reviews of parts 1(The Unincorporated Man) and 2(The Unincorporated War), the standard of writing and core ideas established in the debut novel were left behind and forgotten by the authors. The only reason I insisted on buying the book, is the false hope that maybe Kollin brothers would come back and develop further their original ideas of The Unincorporated Man, but that didn't happen. So don't fall for the same trick as I did. What's worse, is that even the military action is of much poorer quality than in the part 2(the saving grace of that book). The writing quality is reduced, the characters are even flatter and less realistic, the characters' actions are implausible, and events have artificial feel. The AIs are almost entirely reduced to cartoon characters (although they "think" at speeds several times faster than people, and presumably have centuries of experience, and have been literally raising the humans they have been assigned to). The main antagonist, is portrayed simplistically mad with power - loosing all plausibility, that was built into the character in earlier books. The authors then meticulously describe how racial purity is essential in allowing people into the main religion emphasized in the book – genetic tests and all, and how God might have a grand plan for that particular genetic make up... (!) and this was somehow presented as a good thing (!) As you can imagine that really shocked me, as it should any sensible person... Furthermore, in a world where past religious and ethnic conflicts, differences and prejudices have truly been forgotten (as clearly described throughout The Unincorporated Man and to lesser degree The Unincorporated War), where a regular Joe wouldn't be able to point out ethnic ancestry, where names of countries are a thing of the distant forgotten past and no one can name but a few, ... somehow characters start to spontaneously selectively resurrect one and only one very specific ethnic prejudice – as in the case of Hecor Sambianco – who out of the blue is deemed by the authors to become an anti-semite. From that moment on and into the next and final volume, the authors seemed to have abandoned every endeavor – Novel idea of personal incorporation, Artificial Intelligence, human plight in times of conflict, or exhilarating space battles – except one, to draw parallels to World War II in a very heavy-handed and blatant way. This is not The Unincorporated Man I so enjoyed, appreciated and treasured. It's not even a shadow of that first wonderful, thought provoking and truly surprisingly novel (so difficult to accomplish in Sci Fi today) book. I did give it 3 stars simply because the first book left so much momentum. But by itself The Unincorporated Woman could never stand. no reviews | add a review

The Federal Bureau of Investigation released little information Wednesday about its continuing investigation into the death of a 21-year-old woman whose body was found near Lame Deer on Monday.
Hanna Harris, of Lame Deer, went missing on July 3. Her body was found west of Lame Deer and south of Highway 212 late Monday night.
Friends, family and law enforcement officials searched for her over the weekend before the body was found on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation.
Debra Bertram, FBI Salt Lake City division spokeswoman, said the investigation is ongoing and declined to discuss the case.
She did say that nobody had been arrested as of Wednesday afternoon in connection with Harris' death.
Rosebud County officials conducted an autopsy but have not yet released her cause of death.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs is assisting in the investigation.

How do I block the homepage ONLY?
Perhaps an unusual request
Msg#: 4498045 posted
3:09 am on Sep 21, 2012

Hi all, messing up one's robots.txt can have really bad repercussions, so I would love to hear from people with more experience before completely destroying the site's SE traffic.
I have this rather unusual situation where I need to block the homepage, and only the homepage, of a site from indexing. I am moving a site penalized by Google (I'm going under assumption it's for bad links) and I don't want the bad links to follow (as in passing PR). Almost 100% of the bad links are to the homepage. There's a large number of good links to other pages, which I would like to salvage if at all possible.
So, is it even within the scope of the robots.txt protocol to block a page and not all the pages down the tree from it? Unless some trick exists, it appears to me that anything I do to the homepage in robots.txt will then be inherited by the rest of the site, so it will all vanish.
Can anyone comment on dealing with the homepage in robots.txt?

I forgot to add: I am looking at messing with robots.txt instead of adding a meta robots noindex tag to the homepage because
#1 I would prefer to redirect the old (bad) homepage to the new via a 301
#2 Google lists only two remedies to bad links' influence on a page:
(from [
...] )
* Adding a rel="nofollow" attribute to the <a> tag
* Redirecting the links to an intermediate page that is blocked from search engines with a robots.txt file
the first is not possible - I don't control the links, long story (all in my earlier posts here at WebmasterWorld)
the second - I would like to make the bad homepage that intermediate page for the new homepage (if it makes sense)
So, it sounds like I would have to disallow it in robots.txt if it's even possible.

robots.txt will not prevent the page from being indexed. It will only prevent it from being crawled-- which means that if you've made any changes for the better, g can't see them. What you need to do is
#1 set up the redirect
#2 go into gwt and delete the page from the current cache and index. Next time g### tries to crawl the page, it will meet the 301 and it will carry on from there.
That's assuming for the sake of discussion that the redirect approach is the right way to go. Don't look at me; I don't speak SEO.
Putting a meta noindex on the old page won't do any harm-- but won't do any good either, if the redirect is starting right now. And "nofollow" is obviously pointless on your front page-- it would only prevent google from following links
away from
the page into the rest of your site, which is exactly what you don't want!
bing wmt has a function for "I disown this link categorically and decline to have anything to do with it" but I don't think g### does yet. Unless I blinked and missed something.
You can put up referer blocks in htaccess if there are humans that you don't want physically coming to your site from Those Other Sites. But I kinda doubt this is your problem ;) Otherwise it's a waste of time, because it has no effect on robots. Google doesn't follow links; it makes a shopping list and comes back later. And even if it changed its crawling technique and
meet a referer block, it wouldn't know that that's why it is getting blocked. (A 403 is like calling someone on the phone and getting no answer. You have no way of knowing whether they're really not home, or they've turned off the ringer, or the rats have been chewing on the phone cord, or maybe they glanced at Caller ID and said
I don't feel like talking to him right now.

i'm going to hate myself for saying this:
you could redirect all requests for your home page to a new url - say home.html or default.aspx or what have you - and exclude that url from crawling in robots.txt.
it might even be confusing enough if you used a 302 status code.
that meets the "letter of the law" so to speak.
it certainly doesn't address the "completely destroying the site's SE traffic" side of things.
i'm pretty sure no matter if, where or how you redirect and then block your home page from crawling that turns your home page into a link sink.
i can't see anything good resulting.
are you moving to a new domain or subdomain?

@phranque: Thanks for your suggestion! Yes, if I do in fact trust Google on what they advise for bad links handling (and I do hear lucy24's skepticism about that), it looks like I would have to create a page on the OLD site (say, default.html), redirect old homepage to it but have default.html robot-disallowed.
This feels very much like threading on a thin ice, for sure, but, again, if Google can be trusted on what they write on their website, that should stop flow of PR and remedy the negative effect of bad links while allowing actual users follow links to the homepage and eventually land on the new homepage.
As far as the redirected homepage being a link sink, I don't see that - all OTHER pages will redirect to the new locations, so whatever internal pages were linking to the old homepage, they are now not accessible and the pages that they redirect to are now pointing to the new homepage. So the old homepage appears to be standing on its own in this kind of setup. I hope my logic is not faulty, please advise if you see holes in it.
@lucy24: I actually don't really care if there are humans coming in on bad links. There will not be many anyhow: the bad links are in the footer of WP themes I've sponsored and that's not the most clicked at location on the page. I am mostly concerned about people coming from other, good sites, on a ton of good links to the homepage. In other words, the old homepage is the destination for good links as well as bad and, while I realize that I have to forgo the positive effect of good links on the homepage, I would like to preserve the positive effect of other good links that point to deeper pages within my site.
The desire to avoid creating an intermediate page (default.html, robot-disallowed) was just to avoid an extra redirect. But is still seems like a little safer approach in this slippery situation than to mess with the homepage itself.
Thanks for your input, guys! Again, if anyone sees any holes in this logic, please chime in here, I would like to consider all angles before pulling the plug.

Yes, that's the plan. Pages other than the homepage should 301 redirect straight to their new domain versions.

No. You can't block homepage. Because homepage is main page of your website. If you block via robot.txt in search engine, than you can create wrong impression of your search engine.

Agriculture Committee Announces Subcommittee Assignments
Today, Agriculture Committee Chairman, K. Michael Conaway (TX-11), announced subcommittee assignments for the 114th Congress.
Tamara Hinton, 202.225.0184
STATE UNIVERSITY, ARKANSAS – Today, Chairman Frank Lucas continued the House Agriculture Committee's field hearing series in State University, Arkansas. It was the third of four hearings to be held across the country throughout March and April to gather input in advance of writing the 2012 Farm Bill.
Members heard from Southeast producers of aquaculture, beef, and a variety of commodities, including rice and cotton, about the contributions U.S. agriculture has made to the U.S. economy. They explained that even during difficult economic times and catastrophic weather events, American farmers have continued to provide a safe, affordable, and stable food and fiber supply in no small part because of sound farm policy. They echoed the views of other witnesses from the past two field hearings by telling Committee Members that farmers need an effective safety net, a choice of risk management tools, and regulatory certainty.
"As we visit with producers from different regions of the country, the overriding message we're hearing is just how important it is to provide a choice of policy options in the next Farm Bill. In order for our farmers to be successful and continue to provide the quality food and fiber that we all expect and enjoy, we need to give them the necessary tools to manage risk no matter what type of crop they're growing," said Chairman Frank Lucas (R-OK).
"Today's hearing gave producers in my district a seat at the table and a voice in the conversation as new farm policy is being crafted. I thank Chairman Lucas and my friends on the House Agriculture Committee for coming to Jonesboro to learn more about mid-south agriculture and what we can do as a committee to ensure producers' viability. The hearing today is one of only four field hearings in the entire country and will ensure that the 2012 Farm Bill represents the needs of Arkansas farmers," said Rep. Rick Crawford (R-AR).
Written testimony provided by the witnesses is linked below.
Witness List:
Panel I
Mr. L. Dow Brantley, rice, cotton, corn, and soybean producer, Brantley Farming Company, England, Arkansas
Mr. Randy Veach, cotton, rice, corn, wheat, and soybean producer, Manila, Arkansas
Mr. Paul T. Combs, rice, soybean, cotton, corn, and wheat producer, Sunrise Land Company, Kennett, Missouri
Mr. Bowen Flowers, cotton, corn, soybean, wheat, and rice producer, Clarksdale, Mississippi
Mr. Tim Burch, cotton and peanut producer, Burch Farms, Newton, Georgia
Panel II
Mr. David Hundley, rice, corn, and soybean producer, Jonesboro, Arkansas
Mr. Mike Freeze, aquaculture producer, Keo Fish Farm, Keo, Arkansas
Mr. Dan Stewart, cow calf producer, Mountain View, Arkansas
Mr. John E. Owen, rice, soybean, corn, and cotton producer, John and Annie Owen Farms, Rayville, Louisiana
Mr. Walter Corcoran, Jr., cotton, corn, peanut, soybean, grain sorghum, and cow calf producer, Eufaula, Alabama
Schedule for future field hearings:
Friday, April 20, 2012 – 9:00 a.m. CDT
Magouirk Conference Center
4100 W. Comanche
Dodge City, KS 67801

LONDON (AP) - A leading trainer from the powerful Godolphin stable was charged Wednesday in connection with one of the biggest doping scandals to hit British horse racing.
The British Horseracing Authority also charged the 37-year-old trainer with failing to keep medication records and with conduct prejudicial to the sport.
Al Zarooni, one of two British-based trainers for Godolphin, was ordered to appear before a BHA disciplinary panel in London on Thursday and could be stripped of his license.
Godolphin is the racing organization of Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum, who has owned a number of the world's greatest horses since establishing his operation in 1992. The racing outfit said he was ``appalled'' by the doping case.
Al Zarooni said Monday he deeply regretted making a ``catastrophic error,'' saying the horses involved weren't racing at the time so he ``did not realize that what I was doing was in breach of the rules of racing.''
In a statement Wednesday, the BHA said Al Zarooni has told investigating officers that he administered four more horses with prohibited substances ethylestranol and stanozolol - the same steroid found in the urine of Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson in his positive test at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.
Those four horses weren't tested when the BHA took samples on April 9 from 45 horses trained by Al Zarooni at Moulton Paddocks stables.
Al Zarooni has trained some high-profile winners, notably Monterosso in the 2012 Dubai World Cup - the world's richest horse race, since being employed by Godolphin in 2010.
One of the horses that tested positive is Certify, an unbeaten 3-year-old filly who would have been a leading contender for the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket on May 5. Certify has been pulled out of the race.
British bookmakers said they would refund bets that have been placed on horses trained by Al Zarooni.

Hi I have about 13 small little lemon buds on my 3 year old dwarf lemon tree. I had it for over 2 weeks now and it really doesn't look like it has gotten any bigger. How long does it take for it to grow from bud to a ripened lemon? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have no personal experience but I have ready anywhere from 2-4 months depending on conditions. I would read up on your specific type of lemon (Meyer Lemon?) and see what the experts say. -Doc Citrus |
You don't mention where you live, but here in CA, lemon season (particularly for Meyers) is during the winter months until about March (so certainly more than 2-4 months!). More mature trees will have a second minor harvest in the fall (and very old trees may bear almost year-round). However, since your tree is still quite young, I'd say count on a winter harvest. Also, very young trees will lose most/all of their baby fruit. Not to worry/you should expect this, since citrus will automatically self thin, knowing how much fruit they can successfully hold to term (related to how many leaves are present). Tim |

Hello. I live in San diego, ca. And it is a meyer lemon. Wow, I will have to wait for the fall or winter? O_O |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Wed, May 16, 12 at 19:25
Tim is steering you in the correct direction. The Meyer, when established, will bloom pretty much all the time, but mainly in the spring. You'll see new blooms pushing out as you should be picking the previous season's ripe fruit. My Improved Meyer is probably 6 - 7 years old, and I am enjoying ripe fruit almost all year 'round. 3 years ago, when we first bought the house and moved in at the very beginning of Sept, the last year's fruit crop was still on the tree. We picked off all the old fruit, but it did cause the tree to try to try to alternate bear the following year, so since then, we've tried to be diligent in picking ripe fruit. Meyer's a very prolific producers once they get established. Takes a citrus about 3 years in the ground to start producing reliably. You'll get some fruit before, but it will be not the tree's best effort. And, as Tim mentioned, a lot of fruit drop is normal for young trees, as the tree works to establish itself, all normal. Patty S. |
Generally about 6 months from bloom to maturity for a Meyer; maturity being 8.5 Brix (percent sugar); after that, you can leave it on the tree another 2-3 months during which time it will get a deeper yellow color outside and at the outer limits of that time, it will begin to shrink and the peel will get thinner, so as to last only about 10 days after harvest. For garden Meyers I would just pick the fruit when you want to eat it and you will have fruits all year; the downside of leaving the ripe fruit on the tree is it somewhat limits the fruit set from the next bloom. Commercially we take off the fruit within 60 days of maturity to get ready for the next crop; but for my garden trees, I opt for the year round availability. |
- Posted by Randy31513 Georgia 8b (My Page) on Thu, May 17, 12 at 6:38
Here in South Georgia the Meyer's lemon blooms starts in late February to early April. The fruit yellow-up as John had noted when the weather turns cooler in October with final picking late December to January. |
