cluding Anomalocaris. It's a shame that there is not a Burgess Shale–like deposit in the earliest Ordovician rocks so that we could really take a census of how many soft-part animals known from the Cambrianaged Burgess Shale made it through this biotic crisis. It may be that the end-Cambrian event was every bit as destructive as any of the Big Five—but that it has remained underestimated because fewer animals at the time had skeletons and were thus less likely to have been preserved. Whatever its destructiveness, one thing seems clear: the extinction appears to coincide with a rapid drop in oxygen, and this drop may be related to fundamental changes in the carbon cycle. As noted in Chapter 2, sudden drops in oxygen were mass extinction instigators. But the extinction was also an instigator of future diversity, if the relationship noted in Chapter 2 about low oxygen stimulating new species formation is correct.
It would be fascinating to compare the respiratory structures in those animals going extinct at the end of the Cambrian to those that survived. My suspicion is that the survivors were more efficient respirers than those that died out. This is research for the future, however.
The oxygen drop at the end of the Cambrian was short lived. There was a rebound in atmospheric oxygen levels, and with the rebound came a higher diversity of life in the succeeding Ordovician period, coming, perhaps, from a variety of new body plans evolved in the crisis of low oxygen at the end of the Cambrian. This Ordovician expansion of life is the subject of the next chapter.

Henry and Lois Foster Hospital for Small Animals Renovation Campaign
To better provide 21st-century care for animals and enhance services for their owners, the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine has launched an initiative to renovate and expand the Henry and Lois Foster Hospital for Small Animals. "This project is necessary so that we can continue to provide the high level of service that our clients have come to expect – the kind of care that inspire families to bring their pets to us and veterinarians to make referrals here," says Cummings School Dean, Deborah Kochevar.
When the Foster Hospital opened its doors in 1985, veterinarians anticipated providing care to 12,000 cats, dogs, and other companion animals a year. Last year, the hospital saw 28,000 cases. The 30-year-old building is at its capacity and renovations are needed to continue to deliver our best in patient care and client service.
Success Stories at the Foster Hospital
- Louie, a golden retriever with adult-onset generalized demodicosis
- Tyson, a rottweiler with osteosarcoma in his leg
- Honey, an English setter with bloat
- Barley, a cat with a life-threatening urinary blockage
- Jubi, an African grey Parrot with difficulty passing an egg
- Hermione, a cat badly burned in a house fire

The Promise of Paradox: A Celebration of Contradictions in the Christian LifeISBN: 978-0-7879-9696-3
192 pages
April 2008, Jossey-Bass
First published in 1980—and reissued here with a feisty new introductory essay—The Promise of Paradox launched Parker J. Palmer's career as an author and his ongoing exploration of the contradictions that vex and enrich our lives. In this probing and heartfelt book, the distinguished writer, teacher, and activist examines some of the challenging questions at the core of Christian spirituality. How do we live with the apparent opposition between good and evil, scarcity and abundance, individuality and community, death and new life? We can hold them as paradoxes, not "either/ors," allowing them to open our minds and hearts to new ways of seeing and being.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

View Ryann's LinkedIn Profile
J. Ryann Peyton
As Special Counsel for The Harris Law Firm, J. Ryann Peyton is a highly accomplished family law attorney representing clients on intricate domestic matters involving divorce, the allocation of parental rights, and post decree issues.
In 2015, Ryann Peyton was nominated by the Denver Business Journal for their 40 Under 40 Award. And in 2014, she was named the Gary McPherson Outstanding Young Lawyer by the Colorado Bar Association, and was voted a "Rising Star" by Colorado Super Lawyer. Also in 2014, Ms. Peyton was a Denver Business Journal "40 under 40" nominee, and received 2014's Top 10 Attorney Award from the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys. In 2010, Ryann was named an Up and Coming Attorney by Law Week Colorado, and was recognized by AVVO as a Top Rated Family Law Attorney.
Ms. Peyton has an LLM in Taxation and has successfully represented divorcing clients who are facing ongoing tax implications of property division.Ms. Peyton is also a current member of the Board of Directors and the former President of the Colorado LGBT Bar Association, and focuses much of her family law practice on working with the LGBT community. As a plaintiff in the Colorado marriage equality litigation brought earlier this year, she has become the firm's spokeswoman for all matters associated with the ongoing litigation and legislation for same-sex marriage and is available for comment on the following issues:
- Out of State Same-Sex Marriages: These marriages which were previously deemed to be civil unions are now recognized as valid marriages by the state of Colorado.
- Divorce: With the recognition of same-sex marriage comes the availability for same-sex divorce. Colorado District Courts should be prepared to legally dissolve same-sex marriages performed in Colorado and other states.
- Civil Unions: The Colorado Legislature will need to decide what to do with couples who obtained Colorado civil unions and want to convert those civil unions into marriages. For now, a civil union is not the same as a marriage and parties wishing to be married need to obtain a marriage license.
- Parenting Issues: With civil unions, the legislature changed the presumption of legal parentage to include children born into civil unions. The statutory language will likely need to change again to include a presumption of legal parentage for children born into same-sex marriages. Additionally, step parent adoptions will need to become available to married same-sex spouses.
- Common Law Marriage: Presumably, same-sex couples can take advantage of Colorado's common law marriage statutes. This will mark the first time in Colorado history that common law marriage is available to same-sex couples.
- Taxes: Married same-sex couples will now be able to take advantage of the numerous tax benefits provided to married spouses under state and federal tax law.
About Ryann Peyton
I'm a Colorado native, although you'd never know it as I spent the majority of my life travelling from place to place with my family. Every new school taught me how to relate to people as individuals, which is how I found my way into family law.
As a child of divorced parents, I recognize the challenges that stem from family systems change. I chose to pursue a legal career in domestic relations law in order to help guide families through change, teach families how to avoid relationship breakdown, and create paradigms to keep families together.
I returned to Colorado in 2000 as a Division I lacrosse player at the University of Denver. As a lifelong athlete, I've learned the meaning of the words discipline, commitment, and excellence. Off the field, I earned a B.A. in Psychology as well as the University of Denver's Shaklee-Trowill Research Award for my work in trauma and stress studies.
My family settled in Minneapolis and I traveled home to complete by legal studies at the University of St. Thomas School of Law. While in law school I took advantage of every opportunity I could to work with families in a state of transition.
As a law clerk with the Battered Women's Legal Advocacy Project, I obtained protective orders for women struggling with domestic abuse. I also worked with women seeking asylum and other immigration refuge under the Violence Against Women Act. My commitment to working in underserved communities resulted in over 500 hours of public service during my law school career.
Families come in many shapes and sizes and I pride myself on understanding the needs of even the most non-traditional families. I advocate for creative problem solving and preventative legal strategies. I've created and drafted innovative prenuptial agreements and domestic partnership agreements to plan, protect, and preserve the future of several non-traditional families.
I believe it is important to not only have the emotional commitment to family law, but the economic commitment as well. After law school, I returned to the University of Denver to complete my LLM in Taxation. The division of joint finances, property, and other assets can have a lasting effect after a divorce is final. The emotional toll of divorce is difficult enough without worrying about the ongoing tax implications of property division. My taxation background allows me to spot potential financial issues before they become a problem.

Having not played it yet, I can't comment too much, but I think this games one true strength will also be its one true weakness, it will live and die by how popular the TV show will be. One point you raise is that its fiction needs to be interesting, I can see that the game along won't quite tick this box, but alongside the TV show? It could well be an entirely different scenario, the TV show could (and I should imagine will) make the game far more interesting.
It's an awkward one, no question about it. Whilst it is an MMO and needs to be judged as such (you can't judge it fairly when looking at it as a normal game), it is also unique in that it's not just based on a TV show, it needs the TV show running concurrently to give players some context. It's an interesting idea, whether it works is a different matter.

Capaldi drops Argyle hint
05 Jan 2007 - 07:24:33
Plymouth Argyle are poised to open talks with Tony Capaldi aimed at keeping the Northern Ireland international at the club beyond the end of the season.
Capaldi, 25, is out of contract in the summer and has been linked with a move to a host of the Pilgrims' Championship rivals - including Wolverhampton Wanderers.
But the versatile left-sided player has hinted that he could be tempted to stay at Home Park.
He said: "Nothing has been sorted out yet. I'm going to have a chat with the gaffer (Ian Holloway) this week.
"We wanted to get the busy Christmas period out of the way.
"I've been trying to keep my mind on the football but we are not far apart now. Maybe we can sort something out."

Hey guys, I'll be in Reno the week of the 18th for work and staying at the Peppermill. Looking for food recommendations. I was there last January and ate at Great Basin and Claim Jumpers. Both were good., but looking for anything else the locals may like.
I will go to PF Changs and In n Out since I don't have those near me and I like them. The casino has decent food too (all you can eat sushi!). I'm not picky at all and I love breweries so anything you can recommend would be appreciated!

North Texas DEC Member Discusses the Little-Noticed Role of Trade in Small Business Success Source- thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/economy-budget/230092-the-little-noticed-role-of-trade-in-small-business-success As a new Congress settles in, members of both parties have identified trade as a prime area for bipartisan cooperation. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), House Speaker John Boehner (-Ohio), and President Obama—in his State of the Union address last night—have all called for renewal of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), which gives Congress a stronger role in U.S. trade negotiations. While many think trade is the domain of big business, 98 percent of the 300,000 American companies that export are small and medium-sized businesses. These firms account for one-third of U.S. merchandise exports, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce. The number of small and mid-sized companies that export has nearly tripled over the past two decades. Consider Dallas-based Chem-Crete International. Founded in 1969, it manufactures a permanent, environmentally safe, user-friendly and economical liquid waterproofing material for the concrete industry. Why does trade matter to Chem-Crete or to our country? "In a word," said Chem-Crete President and CEO Radi Al-Rashed, "it comes down to jobs." Chem-Crete has expanded its global reach to the point that it now exports its products to more than 85 countries, and it now employs 20 workers. However, small businesses often find the playing field for trade isn't level. While the U.S. market is generally open, exports face foreign tariffs that often soar into double digits as well as a thicket of non-tariff barriers.

The annual Conference will consist of two events - the 2014 National DEC Forum on October 2 and the Second Annual International Trade Symposium on October 3. The title of the 2014 National DEC Forum is "Roadmap for Success". The Forum will consist of three broad themes- 1. DEC Mission Statements and Goal Setting; 2. DEC Website and Social Media Utilization; and 3. Driving Results – Utilizing DEC Committees. These themes were chosen based upon a nationwide survey conducted of DEC Chairs in which DEC Chairs were asked to select the topics they considered to be most important for the success of their DECs. The Forum will include a general overview of these themes and then will break into three individual tracks in which all attendees will participate. As in years past, the Forum has also been designed to engender substantial attendee participation. The Forum is open only to DEC members and associates and is also closed to the media. Following the conclusion of the Forum an evening reception will be held which can be used for networking and which will also be open to invited guests of DEC members. For more information and to register or view the agenda, see 2014 National DEC Forum.

I got this via email from BarackObama.com today and I thought I'd share it with our readers. It's from Jason Rico, a gay ex-military person, from Obama for America.
Mike —
As a gay veteran, I had never thought I'd see the day come.
At 12:01 a.m. exactly one year ago today, gay servicemen and women became free to serve openly, thanks to the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT).
My mom raised me to be an honest man with a deep love for my country. When I joined the Navy in 1998, my patriotism came first and my personal life second.
When I chose to leave the armed services, it was because I didn't want to lie anymore. I wasn't ashamed of who I am, and I didn't like feeling as if my country was ashamed of me, either.
There are thousands of gay veterans like me who never got a chance to serve openly, more than 13,000 troops who have been discharged, and countless men and women who might have chosen to serve their country had the policy not been in place.
With the repeal of DADT, I felt a renewed sense of pride in my service, and I know I'm not alone.
Our military is more united than ever. Valor and sacrifice aren't limited by sexual orientation. First-class heroes aren't treated like second-class citizens based on who they love — gay and lesbian troops don't have to serve our country under false pretenses.
This is what change looks like.
I'm proud to work to re-elect this president. And I'm even prouder to cast my vote for President Obama again this fall.
If you're proud, too, commit to vote today:
Jason Rico
Obama for America

Quite a few conclusion-makers are imagining about a prospective transfer to cloud computing and are beginning to harmony the professionals and disadvantages associated with this kind of a move.

Why You Should Sell This Oil Stock
The following commentary comes from an independent investor or market observer as part of TheStreet's guest contributor program, which is separate from the company's news coverage.
By Tim Begany
NEW YORK ( StreetAuthority) -- Although energy stocks have been hot as a group -- already jumping nearly 13% so far in 2012 -- individual performance is all over the board, ranging from double-digit gains to double-digit losses. And just because a stock is up a lot doesn't mean it's worth getting excited about.
In fact, there's one energy stock I'd like to warn you about.
This well-known company, an offshore driller with 46 rigs that are contracted out to large oil and gas companies around the world, has seen its stock rise about 25% in 2012. But I'm not impressed. If you take a closer look, then you'll see this company hasn't invested adequately for the future -- a short-sighted approach that's about to come home to roost. The company I'm referring to: Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO) As I see it, Diamond Offshore has gotten itself into a fix by focusing too much on dividend payments and not enough on equipment upgrades. From 2008 to 2011, for example, the combined dividend payout was nearly $23 a share -- a total of about $3.2 billion. This consisted mainly of "special dividends" or one-time payments over and above the scheduled dividend, which amounted to $2 a share from 2008 to 2011 for a total scheduled payout of $278 million during those four years. During the same period, the company put about $2.3 billion -- 28% less than it paid in dividends -- toward capital investments such as upgrading existing rigs and buying new ones. This obviously wasn't enough. Diamond Offshore now has one of the oldest fleets in the offshore drilling industry, with an average rig age of nearly 30 years. The company opted against extensive equipment upgrades and new purchases during the past few years because it believed returns on such investments would be too low in a recessionary economy. But now the economy is picking up, oil prices are rising and deepwater drilling activity is increasing. Management may be wishing it had put a lot more cash toward capital improvements instead of special dividends. But it didn't, and now it's stuck with one of the least competitive rig fleets in the world. To make things worse, it may be a few years before the company can aggressively invest in upgrades, since many of its rigs are tied up in long-term contracts that don't expire until 2015.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

What type of sports parent will you be?
Level of
Type of Parent
Disinterested/misinformed parent
The comfort zone
Overly-involved Excitable/fanatical
Disinterested parents spend more time arranging a car-pool to take their children to the game than they do at the actual game if they attend at all.
The misinformed parents care about their children's sport choices, but they feel their appearance at a game or practice will be stressful for the youth.
The opposite of under-involved, disinterested or misinformed parents are the excitable and fanatical parents. The excitable parents want to be supportive of their children, coach, and the game, but at times may "lose control" and exhibit offensive behavior. Excitable parents may not be aware of their behavior.
Fanatical parents want their child to be a sports hero or heroine. The fanatical parent will harp on the coach, officials, and their child in an attempt to have their needs met. The child who has a fanatical parent may experience pre-game stress, competitive stress and/or feelings of inadequacy. Eventually the child may grow despondent and refuse to play.
Parents in the comfort zone contribute to the child's sports experience in a positive and supportive way and know when to back off. The moderate parent models having fun, encourages effort and improvements, and applauds all participants.
The preferred level of parental involvement is different for each child. To identify your child's comfort zone, ask the following questions:
- How involved do you want us to be?
- How do you want us to be involved, (i.e. sit on sidelines, coach, carpool, etc.)?
- Is it okay of us to cheer on the sidelines?
- What makes you feel pressured?
Take the time to have a discussion with your child to better understand their reason for being involved in sports and how you can be a supportive parent.

Spears of Spring
Once known as "sparrow grass," fresh asparagus of all colors--green, purple or white--is a gastronomic gift of spring.
Part of the lily family, asparagus is grown in sandy soils. To cook, wash well under cool water, then steam briefly with the stalks standing upright, stir-fry, or drizzle with olive oil and flash blast in the oven.
White asparagus is just green asparagus that hasn't seen the light of day. To keep it from turning green, it's grown in total darkness under mounds of dirt. Popular in Europe, white asparagus is tender and mild.
Asparagus tastes best when cooked soon after purchase. Markets should refrigerate their asparagus or store it standing upright in cold water. Wrap stalks in damp paper towels and store in the crisper until ready to prepare.
The most-tender new vegetables are here just in time for early spring salads!
Creamy, comforting potato soups will warm you up.

As you complete your profile in the housing application, you will be asked a number of profile questions.
Keep in mind that living together provides a wonderful and unique opportunity to learn from other students. When you live with someone new, it will take time to learn about each other. Living together may present you with some challenges, but also with many rewards.
The residence hall experience reflects the diversity of the student body at the University of Delaware. Your are certain to find much in common with those with whom you live, and much that you will be able to learn.
Below is a guide to help you gauge your responses to profile questions. Most answers are on a Likert scale, meaning that you may choose a point along a range between two endpoints.
Beyond these questions, there are additional resources on our Living with a Roommate page to help potential roommates build a respectful, successful roommate relationship.
Options: [From whom I can have a separate life] ↔ [With whom I can be a close friend]
Consider this: Every roommate relationship should be founded on respect for each other and for the rules of the room, but unfulfilled expectations lead to disappointment. What is your expectation of your roommate relationship?
Options: [I am comfortable with a room that others may call "messy"] ↔ [Clean and immaculate all the time]
Consider this: If the cleanliness of the room is important to you, but not to your roommate, or vice versa, you're set up for conflict. Is a tidy room a necessity, or is it the first thing put aside when you're busy with the demands of college life?
Options: [Rarely] ↔ [Sometimes] ↔ [Daily]
Consider this: Custodial staff regularly clean common areas of residence halls, but students are responsible for keeping their rooms clean from move-in to move-out. Students living in suites will also be responsible for cleaning the shared bathroom. Keep that in mind when answering.
Options: [Start as early as possible] ↔ [Sleep in as late as I can]
Consider this: If you are new to college, you may not know what time your classes will begin, but you probably have a good idea of whether you like to get up early or not. There are a number of activities on campus that require early morning attendance.
Options: [Go to bed as early as possible] ↔ [Stay up late into the night]
Consider this: Again, if you are new to college, you may not know what you'll consider "late night" in college. If you have to be up early for an activity, you may want to hedge on the earlier end.
Options: [Absolute silence] ↔ [Tolerate noise]
Consider this: At least as important as what time you go to bed or get up is whether you're a light sleeper. Quiet hours are in place in every residence hall.
Options: [Absolute darkness] ↔ [Lights on]
Consider this: If your roommate stays up to read or study, or if s/he gets up early and needs light to dress, will it disturb you?
Options: [Absolute silence] ↔ [Background noise]
Consider this: Not everyone studies in their residence hall room. If you do, however, what kind of environment do you prefer?
Options: [Cool] ↔ [Warm]
Consider this: Believe it or not, this is one of the major complaints by roommates!
Options: [Private space] ↔ [Social Hub]
Consider this: You have an expectation of how your residence hall room should be used. Do you expect it to be your personal sanctuary, or do you expect your room to be a gathering spot for friends on a regular basis?
Options: [Not at all comfortable] ↔ [Completely comfortable]
Consider this: Students must have their roommate's consent to have a guest stay overnight. Are you likely to feel comfortable with your roommate's friend(s) in the room at night? Learn more about the rules on hosting guests.
Options: [Not at all comfortable] ↔ [Completely comfortable]
Consider this: Students must have their roommate's consent to have a guest stay overnight. Are you likely to feel comfortable with your roommate's significant other in the room at night? Learn more about the rules on hosting guests.
Options: [Not at all] ↔ [Very]
Consider this: If you want a fridge or a microwave in the room, you can only have one. But how comfortable are you sharing more personal items?
Options: [Be open and direct] ↔ [Keep concerns to ourselves]
Consider this: Ideally, roommates will have open communication at least regarding issues about the room and roommate relationship. But some of us need a little help in that area and some are inherently more open. Which is your style? More importantly, what do you expect between you and your roommate?
Options: [I don't tolerate its presence or use] ↔ [I intend to have alcohol be a part of my college experience]
Consider this: Both you and your roommate are responsible for what happens in your room. If alcohol is present and you are each underage, you will both face judicial action. Excessive alcohol use on or off campus virtually guarantees roommate conflict. Coming home intoxicated is rarely something that occurs without disruption and often results in some fairly inconsiderate actions. If your roommate is engaging in alcohol use in a manner that is disruptive to you, do not ignore it in the hope that it will go away. This is an issue that must be confronted early before the roommate relationship is damaged beyond repair. Those who frequently disrupt the community with alcohol related issues not only damage the environment for the whole floor, but also place themselves in situations that have a high potential for harm. If you observe a community member in need of assistance, please do all you can to assist and alert the staff so that help can be obtained.
Options: [No] • [Yes]
Consider this: If you are a smoker, please realize that you must never smoke within the residence hall. It will be noticed quickly by your neighbors and those living above or near you, and is a policy violation. Actions such as covering smoke detectors are considered serious violations. Some Complex Community Councils also set guidelines for smoking near the exterior of the building; remember that you are responsible for following rules that are established by your peers and community. If you would like to change the guidelines for smoking near the building, please become active with your Complex Community Council.
Options: [No] • [Yes]

BOOTLEG FILES 375: "Admiral Cigarette" (1897 advertising film produced by Thomas Edison's fun factory).
LAST SEEN: The film can be seen on several online video sites.
AMERICAN HOME VIDEO: It has been included in the 2004 DVD "More Treasures from American Film Archives."
REASON FOR BOOTLEG STATUS: An expired copyright.
CHANCES OF SEEING A COMMERCIAL DVD RELEASE: It did, but you can't stop the bootleggers!
I rarely seek out the so-called popcorn movies anymore because I don't feel they are real movies – in my view, they are multimillion-dollar merchandising campaigns shoehorned into a celluloid package. Of course, the corruption of motion pictures with incessant product placement and ancillary marketing campaigns is not a recent development. But I recently wondered just where the worlds of movies and merchandising first overlapped.
The answer, it seems, was at the very start of the U.S. film industry. Way back in 1897, Thomas Edison's pioneering film production company created the first advertising commercial with a 30-second spot for the Admiral Cigarette brand. This groundbreaking effort was a very unusual endeavor at many levels.
During the 1890s, the National Cigarette and Tobacco Company invested an extraordinary level of time, energy and money into the promotion of its Admiral Cigarettes. The marketing campaign revolved around a series of full-color drawings featuring shapely young women wearing nautically inspired outfits. Actually, that is half-correct: the costumes were half-inspired by Napoleonic naval uniforms and half-inspired by music hall costuming. Thus, the women wore sailor hats and modified sailor tunics (with creative tailoring to highlight a bit of cleavage) while their lower torso provided much less in the way of clothing and much more in the way of stocking-clad legs.
The Admiral Cigarette gals turned up in a series of amusing advertisements, where they were posed on naval vessels in anticipation of an enemy attack. The "admirals" in this campaign attracted a large male following, and National Cigarette and Tobacco obliged their fans by printing up trading cards and posters featuring the all-girl navy.
(In case you are wondering, a pack of 20 Admiral Cigarettes cost five cents in those days.)
In the latter half of the 1890s, Thomas Edison was beginning to reshape the entertainment with the presentation of motion pictures. It is not clear whether Edison approached National Cigarette and Tobacco or vice-versa – most likely, the cigarette makers made the offer as a way to push past the American Tobacco Company, the dominant force that nearly controlled the U.S. market.
Details on the creation of "Admiral Cigarette" (as the film is now known) are scant. Some film scholars attribute the direction and camerawork to William Heise, though no one has been able identify anyone in the film's cast. The production probably took place in July 1897 at the Edison Black Maria studio in West Orange, New Jersey.
"Admiral Cigarette" opens with four men seated in front of a billboard for the eponymous product. The men are engaged in a highly animated conversation, and each represents a different station of society: an Irishman with thick mutton chops, an American Indian in a war bonnet, an elderly man wearing a beret and some kind of uniform (some sources identify him as either a soldier or a clergyman) and Uncle Sam. Opposite of the men is a giant Admiral Cigarette box.
Without warning, the box opens and out pops a lovely young lady in a mix of nautical and showgirl attire. She is an Admiral Cigarette advertising come to life. The men jump up in surprise, but their agitation quickly turns to joy as she happily hands out cigarettes. She also showers the floor around them with individual cigarettes.
The men unfurl a banner that reads "We All Smoke." The men and their lady gallantly point to the Admiral Cigarette billboard while taking dramatic puffs on their cigarettes. And, thus, in a 30-second silent vignette, advertising turned up on the movie screen.
By contemporary standards, "Admiral Cigarette" is interesting for the presence of the American Indian as an equal among the white smokers. This was uncommon for the 1890s, though it is unlikely that audiences of the day put any thought in this casting. (They were just happy to see pictures that moved.) Also, having the cigarette girl puffing away on her tobacco stick alongside the men was also ahead of its time – proper ladies of the late Victorian era were not expected to smoke, let alone in the company of men.
Edison secured a copyright for "Admiral Cigarette," which makes it the first known advertising film to be protected as intellectual property. Bootlegging of films was rampant in the late 19th and early 20th century period, and Edison's company sought protection from celluloid pirates by making positive image paper photographic rolls, or "paper prints," of their work, which was sent for copyright deposit at the Library of Congress. As a result of this, the bulk of Edison's pioneering work survived intact.
It is not certain how 1897 audiences reacted to a filmed advertisement – the fact that Edison and other early film producers mostly avoided overt commercial product promotion suggests the experiment may have been poorly received. In any event, the film was mostly forgotten over the years. Most contemporary audiences saw it for the first time when a restored version was included in the 2004 three-disc DVD release "More Treasures from American Film Archives (2004)," which was compiled by the National Film Preservation Foundation.
Since the film's copyright expired years ago, "Admiral Cigarette" can be freely duped. But since prints of the film were never widely available to collectors, today's online video copies were obviously ripped from the copyright-protected 2004 DVD release. It is kind of funny, though – 114 years after it was made, "Admiral Cigarette" is still being bootlegged!
And speaking of bootlegging, this is the 375th column in The Bootleg Files series. Thank you for stopping by Film Threat every Friday for a trip down duped-film lane. I greatly appreciate the feedback and support that this column receives.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The unauthorized duplication and distribution of copyright-protected material, either for crass commercial purposes or profit-free shits and giggles, is not something that the entertainment industry appreciates. On occasion, law enforcement personnel boost their arrest quotas by collaring cheery cinephiles engaged in such activities. So if you are going to copy and distribute bootleg videos and DVDs, a word to the wise: don't get caught. Oddly, the purchase and ownership of bootleg videos is perfectly legal. Go figure!

Re: What is Everything Attachments thinking?
Some of the problems you are having has to do with the 3 point on that AC tractor. It came from the factory with an Allis-Chalmers snap hitch not a 3 point hitch. It has an aftermarket 3 point hitch on it that is compounding your problem. Cat 1 lower hitch arms should be almost parallel spaced at 26? Cat 2 is 32? A 3 point hitch should never have a sway bar in the middle like this. The tractor mounts for the lower arms are too close together to give proper 3 point geometry. The Welding angles are not perfect on the box blade but they are well within industry standards. If you want one perfect angles then go buy a Gannon that cost $1800. You got a good product at a good price. I don稚 have any connection to EA but the truth is the truth.
Re: What is Everything Attachments thinking?
I was a customer also. No complaints but my attachment was from another company and sold through them.So it was all good they were fine to work with on the phone and Im considering another purchase. But this post has me really wondering.After re-reading the original post, I'm surprised they weren't more open to the defect being told to them.I will keep watching for them to say something here..
On another note i purchased a car lift that had a slightly off straight bracket.It will and does still function.But when you take that slight defect and hang a 3 plus foot of hydraulics on it it sure looks crooked. People coment and I tell them oddly that was the tower that had two bear cans in it from the factory lol Not insinuating that in this case there was any beer.lol

Re: What is Everything Attachments thinking?
Well, you are partially right- the tractor did originally come with a snap coupler system.
However, the three point hitch adapter is a factory Allis Chalmers part, not an "aftermarket" 3 point hitch. It was intended to support all manner of implements and has many installation options, including multiple beaming screw mounting positions, stabilizers, cross links, parallel lift, etc.
I suppose that if these adapters were sold for decades and used for over half a century in production agriculture, it is likely that they are sufficient for the job.
There is no "sway bar" in the middle of the hitch. The cross tube can be used for beaming tube connection and keeps the 3PH arms parallel. That is not an anti sway function. The somewhat limited sway control is provided by the sway/check chains.
As to your claim that any welds are within "industry standards"... What industry are you in?
Regardless of your misguided claim, I do not think that EA has any intention of slapping out cheap and shoddy products in the name of low price. This just looks like "the one that got away..."
I guess this is getting into the weeds anyway, but I must admit that I thought your post was rife with inaccuracies masquerading as experience.

Sorry, but there's no room for that type of mentality in my business. No, we are not perfect and we sometimes screw up. When I do screw up, I admit it quickly and make it right. Otherwise I have let my customer down.
Customer service is not only important, but critical for success. I understand this from both sides of the fence. I'm a demanding customer and therefore understand and appreciate why my customers are so demanding. I treat them as I expect to be treated.
Unfortunately, Many people are not as good of a customer as the original poster. The original poster voiced his opinion and gave the business a fair opportunity to respond.
For me, I drive 75 miles one way to have my kubota serviced even though there is a Kubota dealer less than 1000 FEET from my office. I understand the value of good customer service.
Thanks EA for making this right. I am not far from you in NC and will consider your company the next time I need a product you produce.
Re: What is Everything Attachments thinking?
Your post is responding to but one of the posters I was referring to that couldn't comprehend what they were reading(no offense intended). The OP was wondering why he was being told that his tractor bent the ears, when one could clearly see that it was welded wrong. The OP never asked for a replacement, or repair..........He just wanted to let EA know about the 'quality control issue". But others read the post differently than it was written, or got caught up in what others were saying..........I dunno

Yager Stadium
Attendance: 14,979
Oxford, OH (Sports Network) - Zac Dysert hit Nick Harwell on a 20-yard scoring strike midway through the final quarter to give the Miami-Ohio RedHawks a 35-28 come-from-behind win over Army in a non-conference game at Yager Stadium.
Dysert threw three touchdown passes in the final 17:30 of regulation. He finished his day 24-of-37 for 342 yards and four touchdowns as the RedHawks (1-4) won for the first time in five starts. Nick Harwell caught 10 balls for 186 yards and two scores. He tied a school record by going over the 100-yard mark in receiving yardage for the fourth game in a row. His 186 receiving yards marked a season high and the third most in school history; Harwell himself holds the record of 219, which he set last year. Erik Finklea carried 17 times for 90 yards.
Trent Steelman was a perfect 8-of-8 through the air with a touchdown for Army (2-4) and also carried 24 times for 99 yards.
The RedHawks took a 7-0 lead when Dysert hit Harwell with a 13-yard scoring pass just two minutes into the first quarter.
Steelman's one-yard quarterback sneak tied the game at the eight-minute mark.
The Black Knights took a 14-7 lead on Raymond Maples's 25-yard burst with just over a minute left in the opening period. However, the RedHawks responded immediately, as Dysert scored on a one-yard run as time expired in the first quarter.
Steelman hit Brown with a 45-yard touchdown pass to give Army a 21-14 lead with exactly four minutes left in the first half.
Steelman scored his second rushing touchdown on a five-yard run early in the third frame.
Dysert rallied the RedHawks with a 17-yard touchdown pass to Justin Semmes late in the third quarter, then found Andy Cruse on a nine-yard throw just seconds into the fourth to tie the game at 28.
Army drove into Miami territory after Dysert's pass to Harwell gave the RedHawks the lead. Army got as far as Miami's 13-yard line, but eventually turned the ball over on downs.
The two teams combined for 953 offensive yards.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Agriculture in Idaho represents a substantial portion of the state's economy and affects in excess of 100,000 jobs. Sixteen percent of private sector employment in Idaho is directly related to agribusiness.[1] Agricultural products for 2005 were valued at $4,484,275,000, with sightly over half of that from the sale of livestock and dairy products. The 2002 Census of Agriculture by the USDA reports that twenty-two percent of the land or 11.77 million acres (47,630 km²) in Idaho is used for agricultural purposes. The average farm size is 470 acres (1.9 km²) and the average age of the farm operator is 54.1 years.[2]
In 2012, the top five counties in agricultural sales are Cassia, Gooding, Jerome, Twin Falls, and Canyon counties. The top five commodities in value of receipts for 2005 are dairy products, cattle and calves, potatoes, wheat, and hay.[2] According to a 2006 census, the top five fruit products in production are apples, grapes, peaches, cherries, and plums.[3]

Idaho ranks first in U.S. production of barley. In 2006, the value of the crop was $134,946,000.
In a 2006 report, a total of sixty-six farms were included in a census taken by the Idaho Department of Agriculture. These operations reported a total of 1,270 acres (5 km²) in production with 1,013,812 vines of bearing age This represents a growth of 85.8% over the 1999 survey.[4] Canyon County vineyards contain 81% of the state's total inventory of grape vines.[3]

Wilke Farms is located 30 miles Southwest of Boise, Idaho in the Snake River Valley by Marsing, Idaho. Wilke Farms started raising Dairy Replacement Heifers in 1998 to help dairy producers have a good source for replacement heifers. By allowing an outside source to raise their heifers the dairies are able to concentrate on milking their cows & free up additional space to add more milk production. Because Heifer Raisers are able to solely concentrate on producing heifers, oftentimes the results are very good. Other reasons that dairies have their heifers custom raised include: increased milk production, having cattle that have been properly raised to maximize their genetic potential, getting heifers returned (and milking) by a younger age (without sacrificing milk production or having calving problems), not having to purchase additional feed, not having to hire more employees, not having to purchase more equipment and many other reasons.[5][6][7]

Snake River Farms in Boise, Idaho started raising Kobe-style beef with the importation of the bull Fukutsuru from Japan in the early 1990s. The company has cross-bred traditional wagyu beef genetic stock with the premium American "Black Angus" cattle breed.[citation needed]
The first year statistics were reported in the Fact Sheets on organic farms by USDA was in 2002. According to published reports, there are one-hundred and fifty-two certified organic farms in the state on a total of 22,487 acres (91 km²). The total value of the crops raised is valued at $25,328,000.[2]

Available for Will Rannells:
Primarily known for his paintings of dogs, Rannells was a champion and a protector of the species. An Ohio native, he was born in 1892 in Caldwell, and died in 1982 at his home in Westerville. He served for 35 years as Professor of Commercial Art at Ohio State University, retiring in 1961. In 1916 he began painting dogs, rather than girls, and in the 1920s his portraits appeared on the covers of such magazines as Judge, Life, and McCalls. He also illustrated Eldon Roark's book Just a Mutt, published in 1947. Other children's books with his illustrations are Waif, the Story of Spe, Animals Baby Knows, Jack, Jock and Funny, Timmy, and Animal Picture Story Book. His annual dog calendar was produced for over 40 years.Sources include:Who's Who in American ArtObituary, Columbus Dispatch, February 4, 1982; information courtesy of Ellen Roubos
