Keith Dukes Accused Of Slitting Wife's Throat, Shooting Her In Front Of Their Children
February 13, 2015 at 1:01 pm by MorbidRIVERVIEW, FL — Keith Duke is facing murder charges after he slit his wife's throat and then shot her multiple times in front of their three children.
On Thursday morning, 48-year-old Keith Dukes got into an argument with his 34-year-old wife, Michelle Dukes, inside their home while their three children were sitting in a car outside.
The argument between the couple, who have been separated for a year, turned violent when Duke grabbed a knife and slit his wife's throat. She managed to run from the house, screaming for help.
Her daughters, ages 7, 13 and 14, saw their mother running away and got out of the car to join her. At the same time, a Waste Management truck driver was passing by and saw Michelle and her daughters toward him, screaming for help.
"I saw a cut going from one side of her neck to the other," said the driver.
As he called 911, Michelle and her daughters ran into a neighbor's house. But Keith wasn't done, and he wasn't letting a neighbor's home protect Michelle from what he had in store for her next.…
Maxwell Morton, 16, Murdered Classmate Then Took Selfie With Body
February 9, 2015 at 10:36 am by MorbidJEANNETTE, PA – Maxwell Morton has been charged with murder after police say the 16-year-old shot a classmate in the face before taking a selfie with the victim's body and posting it to Snapchat.
Police were contacted Wednesday evening after the mother of 16-year-old Ryan Mangan found her son dead in his room. The following day, a woman called police to report a disturbing image her son had received via Snapchat.
The image was a selfie taken by Morton with a very dead Mangan sitting in a chair behind him with a gunshot wound to the face. The woman also said her son received messages from Maxwell, stating, "Told you I cleaned up the shells" and "Ryan was not the last one."
A search warrant was served at Morton's home and a 9 mm handgun was found in the basement under the steps that matched a shell casing found in Mangan's room. After being advised of his rights, Morton confessed to shooting Mangan. At this time, no motive has been revealed.…
Tyler Williams Killed While Using Toy Gun To Rob Elderly Man With Real Gun
February 6, 2015 at 10:27 am by MorbidUPPER DARBY, PA – A teen who tried to rob an old man with a toy gun has died after the intended victim used his real gun to shoot the teenager in the head.
The shooting happened Wednesday afternoon when a 67-year-old man walking in Cobbs Creek park was confronted by 18-year-old Tyler Williams.
"As he turns around, he sees a masked man with a gun pointed at him saying, 'Give it up, give me all you got," said Supt. Michael Chitwood, Upper Darby Township Police.
The old man didn't comply with the teen's demands, but rather grabbed the teen's gun. The two got into a struggle that ended when the victim pulled out his very real, .38 caliber handgun, and used it to shoot the teen in the head.
The man then walked out of the park and called 911 and Williams would die at the scene.
Chitwood said the teen was found with half a dozen cell phones and that the toy gun he was using looked so real that police at the scene didn't know it was a fake until they got a closer look at it.…
Boy, 5, Kills His Baby Brother After Finding Gun And Shooting Him In The Head
January 20, 2015 at 10:55 am by MorbidELMO, MO – An infant has died after his 5-year-old brother got his hands on a loaded gun and shot him in the head.
According to the Nodaway County Sheriff's Office, the mother of the two children called 911 to report her five-year-old son shot her infant in the head with a paintball gun.
But after law enforcement arrived at the location, they discovered that the infant had been shot in the head with a .22 caliber magnum revolver. The baby boy was flown to a Kansas City hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Nodaway County Sheriff Darren White said the infant was inside a playpen in a bedroom where the loaded gun was located on a shelf built into the headboard of a bed.
"At this point foul play is not suspected, and it appears at this time that the shooting was accidental," said White.
Neighbor and family friend, Kathy Armentrout, said the mother was home alone with her five young sons at the time of the shooting. White said the gun belonged to a relative and that guns are common place in the area.…
Sisters, 15 and 11, Accused Of Murdering Their 16-Year-Old Brother
January 7, 2015 at 9:42 am by MorbidTAMPA, FL – Police have charged a 15-year-old and her 11-year-old sister with the murder of their 16-year-old brother.
Police learned of the shooting after the two girls told an officer that there had been a shooting at their home. They told the officer that her older brother had beaten her up earlier in the day.
Police arrested the 15-year-old and charged her with premeditated murder on Monday, saying she grabbed a handgun from her parents' bedroom and fatally shot her brother in the living room of their home.
Her sister was arrested the following day and faces the same charge. The sheriff's office has not released details regarding the younger sibling's involvement but did say in a statement that she allegedly "assisted" in the killing of her brother.
Investigators believe that the fight between the older sibling and her brother was the motive behind the shooting, said Columbia County sheriff's spokesman Deputy Murray Smith.
Also charged were the girls' parents. Keith Kornegay, 37, and Misty Kornegay, 33, were out of town at the time of the shooting, but were later arrested and charged with child neglect.…
Veronica Rutledge Fatally Shot By Her 2-Year-Old In Idaho Wal-Mart
December 31, 2014 at 12:39 pm by MorbidHAYDEN, ID – Veronica Rutledge was inside a Walmart when she was accidentally shot and killed by her 2-year-old boy after he reached into her purse and her concealed gun fired.
The shooting occurred on Tuesday at around 10:20 a.m. as Rutledge, 29, was shopping with her son and three other children, said Kootenai County sheriff's spokesman Stu Miller.
The boy was in a shopping cart when he reached into his mother's purse and pulled out a small-caliber handgun. The gun fired once and Rutledge, who had a concealed weapons permit, was fatally struck.
"It appears to be a pretty tragic accident," Miller said.
Rutledge's husband showed up to the store shortly after the shooting. All of the children were taken to a relative's house.
Rutledge's father-in-law, Terry Rutledge, told The Associated Press that Rutledge "was a beautiful, young, loving mother" and was "not the least bit irresponsible." I beg to differ.
Look, I'm all for people being able to carry a concealed firearm. Hell, I'm a concealed weapons permit holder myself.…
Concealed Carry Permit Holder Shoots, Kills Teen Attempting To Steal Nike Sneakers
December 24, 2014 at 10:12 am by MorbidDAYTON, OH – Police said a man with a concealed weapon permit shot and killed 16-year-old Jawaad Jabbar after the teen showed a gun and tried to rob the man of his new Nike Air Jordans.
According to reports, Jabbar was with two friends at the Dayton Mall to buy a pair of the limited edition sneakers. When the teen found out the shop had sold out, he resorted to getting them another way.
He and his friends waited outside on the sidewalk until they spotted two men leaving the mall carrying the newly bought shoes they were seeking. Jabbar allegedly showed a gun to the men and demanded their merchandise.
"This was a random act of 'I want something that person has and I'm going to take it from them by any means,'" said Miami Township, Ohio police Sgt. Jay Phares.
Unfortunately for Jabbar, he picked a man with a concealed weapon permit who was carrying a gun of his own. The man, who is not being identified at this time, pulled out his gun and shot Jabbar once in the torso.…
Man Accidentally Shoots Himself In Face After Threatening To Kill Family Dog
November 26, 2014 at 9:00 am by MorbidPINELLAS PARK, FL — A moron accidentally killed himself after threatening to shoot the family dog and then somehow managed to shoot himself in the face.
According to Pinellas Park police, 57-year-old Dennis Emery became angry with his wife when he could not locate his lighter. During this argument Emery picked up a revolver, pointed it at the family dog and threatened to shoot it.
I'll let Pinellas Park Police Spokesman Sgt. Adam Geissenberger explain what happened next.
"At some point, Emery started to release the hammer back to a safe position. He pointed the gun at his face while he was lowering the hammer and the firearm discharged, striking him in the face," said Geissenberger.
Officers arrived at the scene after a 17-year-old inside the home called 911. Police said they got conflicting reports of whether Emery shot himself on purpose or not, but at this point the death is being ruled accidental and no charges are expected to be filed.
On purpose or not, this guy was an ongoing train wreck.…
TULSA, OK — Tulsa police say 26-year-old Christa Engles died after she was accidentally shot in the head by her 3-year-old son.
Engles was home Monday afternoon with her one-year-old and three-year-old children. According to Homicide Sergeant Dave Walker, Engles was changing the baby's diaper when her toddler somehow gained access to a loaded, semi-automatic handgun and fired the fatal shot.
According to a neighbor, the children's grandmother came in to the room and found Engles wounded and the two children covered in her blood. Engles was rushed to the hospital but would die from her injuries.
The boy reportedly repeated "Mommy shot" over and over again as he was taken away from the home to be interviewed by child specialists. The boy would admit to them that he'd found the gun under the couch before firing the fatal shot.
Police confirmed that they found several guns inside the home. Engles' husband is a truck driver who was on the road at the time of the shooting.
"I lost my Wife to an accident yesterday," he posted on Facebook.…
Man Killed Best Friend Before Cutting Off His Penis, Feeding It To Dog
November 24, 2014 at 2:40 pm by MorbidMEXICO – Mario Alberto Lizalde Reyes has been accused of fatally shooting his best friend before chopping off the man's penis and feeding it to his dog.
The 26-year-old told police that he and and his lifelong friend, 24-year-old Mario Hernandez Banda, 24, were drinking when they got into an argument over Banda allegedly trying to touch Reyes "in a sexual way".
'After pushing him off, he went to urinate in an alley so I followed him, pulled out my gun and shot him in the head," said Reyes. "I then took his knife off him and chopped off his penis as punishment and put it in a bag."
No word on what Reyes planned to do with his brand new dick in a bag, but he said when his dog would not stop sniffing at the bag, he got an idea.
"I decided to give it to him and he ate it," said Reyes.
Reyes left the body of his friend in an alley, finished walking his dog, and then went home.…
Becca Campbell Accidentaly Killed Herself With Gun She Just Purchased
November 24, 2014 at 7:42 am by MorbidSTLOUIS, MO – Police say 26-year-old Becca Campbell may have accidentally shot herself in the head with a gun she just purchased to prepare for possible Ferguson-related trouble.
It happened on Friday night as Campbell was riding in a car driven by her 33-year-old boyfriend. The boyfriend would later tell police that they'd recently bought the gun in case shit went down over the grand jury's decision on the shooting of Michael Brown.
He said that as he was driving, Campbell pulled out the gun and started waving it around in a joking manner, stating they were ready for Ferguson. The boyfriend said that as he ducked to get out of the way of the gun, he accidentally rear-ended another car.
The resulting collision caused Campbell to discharge the gun and shoot herself in the head, according to the boyfriend. Campbell was rushed to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Police are still investigating the incident as they want to make sure that the boyfriend is telling the truth and that Campbell actually did nominate herself for a Darwin Award.…
Don Spirit Killed Daughter, Six Grandchildren Before Killing Self
September 19, 2014 at 8:14 am by MorbidBELL, FL – Police say Don Spirit wiped out 2% of a small town's population after the 51-year-old fatally shot his daughter and six grandchildren before killing himself.
On Thursday, Spirit is said to have gunned down his daughter and her six children before killing himself at a home in Bell, Florida, a town of only 350 people. The Gilchrist County Sheriff's Office said the seven victims were found "all over on the property," and included a 10-week-old baby.
The victims have been identified as Sarah Lorraine Spirit, 28, and her daughters Alanna Stewart, 2½ months, Brandon Stewart, 4, Destiny Stewart, 5, and Kylie Kuhlmann, 9, and sons Johnathon Kuhlmann, 8, and Kaleb Kuhlmann, 11.
This wasn't the first time Spirit has shot and killed a family member. In 2001, Spirit "accidentally" shot and killed his eight-year-old son, Kyle, while hunting together. Before that incident, Spirit had convictions for depriving a child of food and shelter, battery, and felony possession of marijuana.
Just as the trial was to begin for the shooting death of his son, Spirit pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and received the minimum sentence of three years behind bars.…
Girl, 16, Charged As Adult After Killing Man Selling PlayStation Over Craigslist
September 17, 2014 at 3:36 pm by MorbidATLANTA, GA – The Fulton County district attorney's office has announced they will be charging a 16-year-old girl as an adult after she allegedly killed a man while trying to steal his Playstation.
On Friday, 28-year-old Daniel Zeitz went to meet a couple posing as potential buyers of the Playstation 4 he'd listed on Craigslist. Once at the meeting place, an apartment complex parking lot, Zeitz met 20-year-old Nathaniel Vivian (pictured) and his 16-year-old girlfriend. The couple were in their car and had no intentions of paying for the gaming console.
When Vivian tried pulling the Playstation into the car, Zeitz fought back. Police say that's when the 16-year-old, who was sitting in the passenger seat, pulled out a .25 caliber handgun and fired a shot at Zietz. The bullet ended up passing through Vivian's hand before striking Zeitz in the chest, killing him.
Police say the teen's 16-month-old baby was in the backseat at the time. The couple were arrested later after they went to the hospital to have Vivian's gunshot wound treated.…
Three Teens Facing Murder Charges After Friend Killed During Burglary
September 17, 2014 at 9:43 am by MorbidPRAIRIE TOWNSHIP, OH – Three teens are facing murder charges after their friend was shot and killed by a woman inside the home he was attempting to rob.
According to police, 17-year-old Reb Barbee and three friends planned to break into the home of a childhood friend he'd had a falling out with.
Barbee entered the home early Sunday morning through an upstairs window wearing an Insane Clown Posse mask and armed with a knife. His accomplices, Tyler Blazer and Brandon Hamilton, both 17, and Adam Pickens, 18, stayed outside as lookouts.
Heather Tackett woke up when she heard noises inside her home so she grabbed her boyfriend's .38-caliber revolver and went to investigate. When she checked in her son's room, she found a masked Barbee standing over her son holding a knife.
Tackett, unaware that the masked intruder was her son's childhood friend who used to sleepover, screamed and fired one shot at Barbee, who then fled the home suffering from a single gunshot wound to the back.
His accomplices, being the geniuses they are, used a computer chair to wheel Barbee back to his home a half mile away.…
Boy, 11, Shoots Self In Head After Arguing With Father Over Chores
September 4, 2014 at 1:18 pm by MorbidSAN TAN VALLEY, AZ – An 11-year-old boy upset over doing chores used a gun to kill himself with a gunshot to the head.
On Tuesday, Samuel Epps was at home with his father and three siblings when he became upset over completing some chores. "Samuel went into the home's master bedroom and a short time later a single gunshot was heard by other family members." Pinal County Sheriff's Office spokesman Tim Gaffney said.
Samuel's father forced his way into the locked bedroom and found that his son had shot himself in the head. Samuel's father called 911 and paramedics were on the scene withing minutes.
Although Samuel was still breathing and had a pulse, he would be pronounced dead two hours later after being airlifted to Maricopa County Medical Center.
Samuel's father is a supervisor with the Arizona State University Police Department, but investigators say the gun Samuel used was an off-duty weapon.
Studies have shown that 90 percent of young children who commit suicide have some kind of mental health disorder, but detectives have not found any evidence that Samuel exhibited depression, mental illness or suicidal thoughts.…
Bryce Dion, Sound Mixer For Reality TV Show Cops, Dies Recording Shootout
August 27, 2014 at 3:18 pm by MorbidOMAHA, NE – Bryce Dion, a crew member for the reality show 'Cops', died after getting shot during the filming of a shoot-out last night.
The incident happened just after 9 p.m. after police responded to a Wendy's restaurant where there was reportedly a man with a gun robbing the restaurant.
When police arrived, they engaged 32-year-old Cortez Washington inside the building and ended up firing at least 30 shots after Washington fired a handgun at the officers. Washington was hit multiple times and died after stumbling into the parking lot. Dion, a 38-year-old sound mixer who was holding a microphone, was also hit by gunfire and collapsed inside the building.
After the shooting, an officer can be heard on police audio reporting: "We have one of the 'Cops' guys has been hit by gunfire; we need a squad here now." Shortly after, a man says: "We've got a 'Cops' cameraman hit, white male, he's not conscious, he's slightly breathing."
You can listen to the audio here.
It's now being reported that Dion has died.…
Girl, 9, Accidentally Killed Gun Instructor With Uzi At Bullets And Burgers
August 27, 2014 at 10:36 am by MorbidDOLAN SPRINGS, AZ – With a headline like that, you already knew it was from the US.
A 9-year-old girl was with her family at Bullets and Burgers shooting range to enjoy some cheeseburgers and semi-automatic weapons when the girl accidentally shot her gun instructor in the head with an Uzi.
It happened Monday morning as the girl's gun instructor, 39-year-old Charles Vacca, was giving her instructions on how to shoot an Uzi. As Vacca hovers over her, he has the girl fire a single shot before switching the weapon to "fully automatic" mode.
When the girl fires again, the recoil causes her to lose control of the gun while still squeezing off shots. Her arm veers sharply up and to the left, striking Vacca at least once in the head. He would die later that night after being rushed to the hospital.
"The guy just dropped," Mohave County Sheriff Jim McCabe said, adding that no citations will be issued and no charges will be filed as the shooting range is a licensed and legal operation.…

August 19, 2014 at 8:08 am by MorbidALVIN, TX – Last year we reported on David Barajas, the man who was charged with murder after he allegedly shot a drunk driver to death moments after he fatally struck his two sons. His trial started yesterday.
On Dec 7, 2012, David Barajas' truck ran out of gas on a rural road yards from his home. He and his two sons, 12-year-old David Barajas and 11-year-old Caleb Barajas, jumped out and began pushing the truck while Barajas' wife and two daughters remained inside the vehicle.
At around this same time, 20-year-old Jose Banda was driving drunk when he plowed into the rear of the pickup. Caleb and his brother would both die after becoming pinned between the two vehicles. Jose Banda wold die from a bullet wound to the head.
Several witnesses present at the scene of the accident told police that after the crash, David Barajas walked the short distance to his home then returned to Jose Banda's car. That's when they heard gunshots. David Barajas was subsequently arrested and charged with murder.…

Frontier Oilfield Services, Inc. Acquires Saltwater Disposal System
Frontier Oilfield Services, Inc.'s primary business focus is on wastewater recovery and disposal which was selected due to the recurring nature of the revenues, the relatively high margins and the strong barriers to entry by potential competitors because of the limited supply of state permitted commercial disposal wells. In addition, as a result of breakthroughs in recent extraction technology, exploration & production companies are faced with the increasing burden of the disposal of higher volumes of produced fluids and saltwater. Frontier's acquisition strategy in this highly fragmented, decentralized and essential sector of the energy services market, positions Frontier for potentially rapid expansion and substantial growth in the future. Frontier currently has two additional wholly owned subsidiaries, Trinity Disposal and Trucking, LLC in Waskom, Texas and Coffman Tank Trucks, LLC of Chico, Texas.

Seeing as how the battle forums believe that there was a shift once: When did Classic Dr. Strange stop being Classic (and nearly omnipotent)?
Classic Strange
In the 80's when his writers were forced to start taking mandatory and regular drug tests. That being said in Battle forums you have about 90 percent of the posters who haven't read half the comics they talk about and in the search for objectivity in a medium that that is naturally inconsistent they read a few scans, respect feats and suddenly a character is reduced to a caricature. Its almost as if people forget that a lot of comic creators emphasis on the story rather than consistency of characters battle prowess. Just copy the lingo of everyone else around you though and being a sheep is as easy as Dr Strange after 3 beers.
Somewhere in the 80's is roughly where I'd call the death of Classic Strange.
I heard a couple reasons why he was weakened. I think Marvel wasn't happy with the sales for Dr. Strange comics, so they thoght it'd be smart to retool him into a more relate-able, weaker, standard sort of superhero character (just look how he went from looking sort of like Dracula, to looking more like Tony Stark, to eventually looking like a pretty-boy with a handlebar mustache in the 90's if you want evidence of his physical transformation). I also heard that, as turnover happened with Marvel staff, alot of the guys in charge didn't like the idea that Strange was strong enough to just show up and solve any problem in any big, comic-series spanning events...which they were planning to do (like SecretWars and, down the line, Infinity Gauntlet). Alot of people thought his strength undermined the impact of many of the events in comic's universe. And there haven't really been many worthwhile Dr. Strange comics since imo.
He was still a strong character even in his 90's comic series, but was still way weaker than his 60's to early-80's version.

On July 23, the CFPB, the FTC, and 15 state authorities coordinated to take action against foreclosure relief companies and associated individuals alleged to have employed deceptive marketing tactics to obtain business from distressed borrowers. The CFPB filed three suits, the FTC filed six, and the state authorities collectively initiated 32 actions. For example, the CFPB claims the defendants (i) collected fees before obtaining a loan modification; (ii) inflated success rates and likelihood of obtaining a modification; (iii) led borrowers to believe they would receive legal representation; and (iv) made false promises about loan modifications to consumers. The CFPB and FTC allege that the defendants violated Regulation O, formerly known as the Mortgage Assistance Relief Services (MARS) Rule, and that some of the defendants also violated the Dodd-Frank Act's UDAAP provisions and Section 5 of the FTC Act, respectively. The state authorities are pursuing similar claims under state law. For example, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announced that he served a notice of intent to bring litigation against two companies and an individual for operating a fraudulent mortgage rescue and loan modification scheme that induced consumers into paying large upfront fees but failed to help homeowners avoid foreclosure.

"The unconscious mind of man sees correctly even when conscious reason is blind and impotent"
Carl Gustav Jung
"Resistance in life is the unconscious desire for change without the conscious will to enact it."
Jon Christopher Garland
"Consciousness succumbs all too easily to unconscious influences, and these are often truer and wiser than our conscious thinking"
"The conscious mind hungers for success and prestige. The unconscious mind hungers for those moments of transcendent, when the skull line disappears and we are lost in a challenge or a task"
David Brooks
"The human mind can take in millions of pieces of information of which it can be consciously aware of about 40"
"While the conscious mind writes the autobiography of our species, the unconscious mind does most of the work"
"When the first rescuers arrived, he was still conscious. But then he went unconscious and they were unable to revive him."

Review by
Jason from Columbus, Ohio
I havent had this amp long, but i have a cheap 15" subwoofer on it and it plays awesome. No heat so far and its the same size as the more powerful kicker amps so i can upgrade to a bigger amp and keep it in the same location. I am a fan of kicker amps and subs, but their speakers are annoying. I will review the kicker 3 way 6" x 9" next. Oh yeah, mine came with the bass knob.

Review by
-JP from Red Bluff, CA
This little amp is awesome! The actual rating is 278 rms at 2 ohms. I have it paired with a Hifonics hfx12d4 and they hit hard! no joke. The amp itself is small so you can mount it wherever you want. If you're on a budget this amp is the way to go. It doesn't really heat up unless you have it at full power for long periods of time like I sometimes do. Once again I recommend this amp to anyone, you wont regret buying it.

Kicker amps are tested and certified to put out a certain amperage. You will receive a certification for the amp in each box. I have bought a couple of them and they each had a certification in each.

A buddy of mine haz this hooked up to a Kicker comp 12. Its in a ported box & it pushes that sub just right. Not overbearing & does not drown out the highs. The settings are easy to use az well. Recommend for a nice beginners setup.

Happy Challenge
"Rate yourself on a scale from 1-10 (1 being seriously depressed, 10 being the happiest) and then create self-portrait expressing that state."
Today I am a 1/10 I am but a skelton with skin
All exaggerated greatly due to a nasty flu and no sleep
I am unlucky I'm told on a regular basis, unlucky in health, unlucky in love, unlucky in finance.All fairly major parts of life, and today when I saw this challenge and so many 'happy artists' I thought "OH SCREW IT" I'll admit it, I'll be honest.
No need to call Beyond Blue for me I accept it for what it is and it makes me who I am and how I create, I live a better life through my images,my photography.
A great challenge for making me dig out my charcoal, I draw child-like, silly and basic but it makes me honest.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are at it again!
NBC debuted the first promo for next year's Golden Globe Awards during Thursday's The Sound of Music. Naturally, Fey and Poehler decided to showcase their singing abilities by previewing the opening song for the "party of the year."

With Poehler at the piano, the former Saturday Night Live stars tried to tune their voices in preparation for their big song and dance. Instead, Fey and Poehler struggled for most of the 30-second TV spot to accurately match pitch.
Next year's ceremony marks the second time the duo will host the Golden Globes, after they inked a two-year deal earlier this year to lead the awards show.

Abstract: The objective of this research was to evaluate the properties of the chemically retted kenaf bast fiber impregnated with the inorganic nanoparticles. High quality kenaf bast fibers were obtained from a chemical retting process. An in situ inorganic nanoparticle impregnation (INI) process was used to introduce the CaCO3 nanoparticles into the retted kenaf bast fibers. It was found that some of the lignin-based components in the retted fibers were further removed during the INI treatment. From the characterization results, the inorganic nanoparticles CaCO3, with different shapes and sizes, appeared at the surface of the impregnated fiber after treatment. Heterogeneous CaCO3 nanoparticle distribution was observed on the INI treated fibers. The CaCO3 contents were different at different locations along the impregnated fiber. The presence of CaCO3 inorganic nanoparticles at the fiber surface increased the root mean square (RMS) surface roughness by 5.8% and decreased the hydrophilic nature of the retted fibers, evidenced by a 59.4% decrease in adhesion force between the fiber and hydrophilic AFM tip. In addition, the impregnation of CaCO3 dramatically increased the Young's modulus of the fiber by 344%.

How nine-year-olds solve the world's toughest problems.
In John Hunter's classroom, students fearlessly set about tackling global problems--and discovering surprising solutions--by playing Hunter's groundbreaking World Peace Game. These kids--from high school all the way down to fourth grade, in schools both well-funded and under-resourced--take on the roles of presidents, tribal leaders, diplomats, and military commanders. Through battles and negotiations, standoffs and summits, they strive to resolve a sequence of many-layered, interconnected scenarios, from nuclear proliferation to tribal warfare.
Now, Hunter shares inspiring stories from over thirty years teaching the World Peace Game, revealing the principles of successful collaboration that people of any age can apply anywhere. He offers all of us not only a forward-thinking report from the front lines of American education, but also a generous blueprint for a world that bends toward cooperation, rather than conflict. In this deeply hopeful book, a visionary educator shows us what the future of education can be.

1857 edition of Aesop's Fables
This series of colourful illustrations are from Aesop's Fables by Charles H Bennet, a prolific Victorian illustrator. Bennett transforms the animals of the original tales into comic half-man half-animal creations.
The fables all use anthropomorphism to explore ethical quandaries and different aspects of human nature – the animals depicted speak to each other and experience human emotions, and their behaviours often show them using their wit to triumph against adversity.

Brown leaves on a containerized mango
We were hoping that Pugluvr or someone with experience
growing a young mango tree in the gritty mix might offer some urgent help.
It's been just over a week that we transplanted a
Fairchld mango into the 1-1-1 gritty mix with the Gypsum included for the calcium and a little Epsom salts for the magnesium and have been fertilizing
with liquid Miracle-Gro 12-4-8. During this first week after planting, six large bottom leaves have turned brown and fell off and all the leaves are drooping a bit from when it was in its original pot. Naturally we're very worried something might be wrong or maybe it's just a normal occurence after transplanting.
Thank you.
Hi Jane.
We thought it might be transplant shock but it looks pretty drastic. The brown color is slowly working it's way up from the bottom leaves toward the top ones.
We made sure it had enough water (which is mixed together with the fertilizer).
We are keeping it in the shade
until we see some new growth.
Hi Al,
We diluted a tablespoon of Epsome salts first in warm water
and then applied it toward the rim of the container
away from the main stem.
These cold nights we have been bringing it indoors.
No better news to report this morning.
We can't figure this one out.
Thank you both.
I only use "1/4" tablespoon per gallon of water if I used gypsum in my mixes per recipe....
Did you fill in around the roots and use a pointed stick or some other means to wiggle the soils completely around them?
Can you check for moisture in the root zone or ball for moisture with a dowel stick or some other device as soon as possible?
Can you possibly take a picture?
Can you also explain why you transplanted when the leaves were already droopy in the original pot?
Also, might you be able to explain why the tree was not doing so well before you intorduced it to a completly different mix?
Did you bare root it? As much detail as you can will help us help you..
Your answer is probably in the way you used the Epsom salts. How much water did you add the tablespoon of salts to? If I add Epsom salts because I'm using gypsum as a Ca source, it's usually @ the rate of 1/4-1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water, depending on how robustly the plant was growing, and only when I fertilize. You're probably looking at a drought response due to the high salt level of the soil solution - plasmolysis, aka fertilizer burn.
To be safe, I would flush the soil thoroughly and repeatedly to remove most of the salts. Wait until the plant needs watering again, and fertigate with a 1/4 recommended strength solution of 24-8-16 and hold off on additional fertilizing for at least a month. After a month has passed, you can resume fertilizing as you were, unless you were using more than 1/4 tsp/gallon. I would consider that the winter max for plants in fast soils, unless they're warm and under very good lights.
Hello Mike...
We'll check for moisture as you said. Yes we bare-rooted it and filled in around the roots with the mix when we transplanted. We thought it urgent to transplant it to the gritty mix after we saw the leaves slightly drooping because we thought the tree might be starting to get root-bound since we bought the tree as a 7 gallon mango
in a 3 gallon container. The nursery, for whatever reason, had neglected to pot it up to a 7 gallon container.
We'll try to post accurate pics ASAP.
Thank you Mike.
Hello Al...
We used a tablespoon of Epsome salts to a gallon of water which I understand now is way too concentrated.
To be on the safe side we will immediately flush the gritty mix repeatedly and
start over with your suggestions and measurements.
Thank you Al.
Will keep you both posted on the progress.
Hello Mike and Al...
Thank you again for your previous informative posts on the suspected causes of our failing Fairchild mango tree.
We know it's been awhile since we last posted.
But with trial and error, we were finally able to post this accurate picture we promised of our tree.
Perhaps this can give you a better clue to what's happening to it.
It's been three weeks now that it's been in the gritty mix.
As you can see the leaves are drooping and browning pretty badly.
We sincerely welcome and appreciate
further thoughts and comments you may both have.
Wishing you both a Merry Christmas.
Jon and Christine
Jon and Christine,
I am no professional here but I can relate a very similiar first hand experience I had with a 15 gallon Dixie Mandarin and some of the steps I will take in the future.
My Dixie mandarin was very similiar to your Mango- slightly drooping so I thought I needed to rush it into a new container. I did a quick review of the GW forums and collected my ingredients for the Gritty Mix. In my haste, I failed to screen all the ingredients. That was mistake #1. After barerooting the tree, I quickly placed it in a new pot with the DRY gritty mix - mistake #2. It was another 10-15 minutes in the dry mix, before I added water. After I thought everything was properly transplanted, I returned the container to its bright sunny spot in the backyard - mistake #3. A later learned that I gave the plant too much fertilizer as well on this first day. That was the primary culprit in the tree's demise, but I learned many other lessons from this experience.
It took the tree about a month to completely turn brown and dry up. After many hours of careful review of the related threads on GW, I learned the following, to better my chances the next time I use the gritty mix.
1) Screen and rinse your ingredients throughly.
2) Moisten/west gritty mix before you transplant on warm/sunny days. Orchid Fir bark is initially slow to absorb water and will take several waterings.
3) Keep your plant out of direct sun for at least 2 weeks while it adjusts to the new soiless mix. If you don't, your tree will wilt and curl in the sun.
4) During the first 2 weeks, use Superthrive or similiar rooting hormone to reduce transplant shock and encourage root growth.
5) Do not overfertilize - shouldn't need to fertilizer at all during the first two weeks of adjustment.
6) 6/7 mesh granite is best size. 10 mesh is borderline small and 5 mesh is borderline large.
Thank you so very much!
We made the same exact mistakes that you did.
I wish we had learned of your mistakes before hand.
We had to learn the hard way as well.
We will be all the wiser the next time because of your warnings and excellent tips that we will commit to memory. We are not giving up and will try again.
We'll keep all our forum helpers posted like yourself
and meyermike, Al(tapla), Al(calistoga) and Jane.
A Safe and Happy New Year 2011 to all of you
and thank you all again for your help.
Jon and Christine
Hi Axtrader...
One last question just to clarify; We understand that you don't fertilize (an N-P-K fertilizer)the tree during the first two weeks of adjustment. However, assuming you also use epsome salts and gypsum as amendments, do you add the gypsum granules and diluted Epsome salts solution when you fertilize for the first time after waiting for the 2 week adjustment?
Or do you add these two amendments in the beginning while you are making and preparing the gritty mix for the transplant?
Thank you again.
Jon and Christine
Jon and Christine,
Here is a pic of the Pixie Mandarin Tree I lost. Wilted, brown and drying up quickly.
These are a couple of trees I will try to rehab in preparation for Spring (Meyer Lemon and Cocktail Grapefruit). They were transplanted into a gritty mix last weekend. From the condition of the leaves, you can quickly surmise that they have been overfertilized for quite some time. It was good to move them into a clean mix. I could tell their previous soil was saturated in various dissolved solids. The Cocktail on the right has a extra thin layer of orchid bark on top.
I'll start a new thread and provide updates... Dan
Hi demeter, I'm sorry I never saw this post till just today. But the advise everyone here has given you has been excellent. I don't think I could have added anything else. I just wanted to express my sympathies that your mango tree is not doing well.
What was the coldest temps you left your tree outside? I've had some severe damages on a few of my mango trees(Planted inground) from the many nights of freezing temps that we've had recently. I'm hoping the trees will recover in Spring?
Luckily, my 2 potted Mangoes are fine since I was able to move them to my garage.
Best of luck with yours and I hope it recovers. I would certainly not give up on it till you're sure its beyond help.
I am growing my Carrie mango tree on the patio and bringing it in for winter.
I didn't particularly feed it anything yet.
Just have been watering when container soil looked drier. Now the rims of the leaves are turning brown but they are not drooping. Will adding fish fertilizer help gently nourish it?
