The staff was great but room was a bit dated and didn't feel clean! Had to ask to switch sheets on one bed cause it has hairs in it. They were quick to respond to remedy the problem and the staff was very nice and helpful. Beds very comfortable

Best hotelPosted Dec 21, 2014 on Hotels.com
This is the best hotel I've stayed in for a road trip. The on-site restaurant (you receive vouchers for it) is amazing. Every time I come through Raton I will choose this hotel.

Great Room!Posted Dec 18, 2014 on Hotels.com
Booked the suite with king bed for birthday stay. Room was great and staff was helpful, even letting us check out an hour later without additional fee. My only complaint was that I had requested no down pillows or comforter, and the bed had down pillows. I called the front desk, but they were unable to provide any standard pillows, although they claimed to have them. Fortunately I live in town, so I just ended up bringing my own. Would stay there again (with my own pillows). Nice place!

EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on refined Buglossoides oil as a novel food ingredient (NFI) in the context of Regulation (EC) No 258/97. The NFI is produced from the seeds of Buglossoides arvensis (L.) I. M. Johnst, using processes conventionally used for edible oil production. The main fatty acids (FAs) contained in the NFI are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), stearidonic acid (SDA) and linoleic acid, with smaller amounts of oleic acid, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and saturated FAs. With the exceptions of SDA and GLA, these FAs are widely present in common foods. The NFI is intended to be used in a range of foods and food supplements to provide approximately 200 mg of SDA per day. Upon digestion, FAs are used primarily as an energy source. ALA and SDA can be elongated and desaturated to produce eicosapentaenoic acid. In human studies using various sources of SDA, no increase or small increases in SDA were observed in blood cell membranes or in total plasma. The proposed specifications for pyrrolizidine alkaloids and erucic acid, which are undesirable substances,do not give rise to concern in view of the proposed conditions of use. The available information does not give concerns as regards other undesirable substances in the NFI. Available animal studies provide only limited information on the safety of the NFI. Human studies that investigated different plant oils or fatty acid ethyl esters as sources of SDA, GLA and ALA found no adverse effects with up to 4 200 mg SDA/day for 12 weeks, up to 1 700 mg GLA/day for 28 days and 9 100 mg ALA/day for four weeks. The Panel concludes that the NFI is safe for the proposed uses and use levels.© European Food Safety Authority, 2015 Scientific Opinion on the safety of refined Buglossoides oil as a novel food ingredient
EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) Cygro® 10G is a coccidiostat for turkeys for fattening containing 10 g of the polyether ionophore maduramicin ammonium-α (Maα)/kg additive. The maximum proposed dose (5 mg Maα/kg) is considered safe for turkeys with a margin of safety of 2.5. It is unlikely that there will be any measurable adverse effects of Maα on the overall gut flora. Maα is absorbed and excreted rapidly. O-demethylation is the main metabolic pathway in turkeys and rats. Maduramicin-α is the marker residue in the liver and skin/fat. Maα is not mutagenic or carcinogenic. The lowest no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) of 0.1 mg/kg bw per day is found in chronic and multi-generation studies in rats. An acceptable daily intake (ADI) of 1 mg Maα/kg bw (60 μg per person) is derived, applying an uncertainty factor of 100. After a three-day withdrawal, human exposure to maduramicin residues complies with the ADI (17 %). Maximum residue limits (MRL) of 0.15 mg maduramicin/kg liver and skin/fat, 0.1 mg/kg kidney and 0.03 mg/kg muscle are proposed. Although Cygro® 10G is not an irritant to skin or eyes or a dermal sensitiser, any direct dermal contact should be avoided owing to the high systemic toxicity of Maα after dermal application. Inhalation of Cygro® 10G is considered a hazard; therefore a risk to persons handling the additive cannot be excluded. The use of Cygro® 10G is safe for the environment, with the exception of soils with pH values above 7.2, for which no data were available. This conclusion does not extend to effects on organisms living on manure which are not assessed under the current regulation. Based on the recent studies (floor pen studies, field studies and sensitivity studies), the efficacy of Cygro® 10G in turkeys for fattening has not been sufficiently demonstrated.© European Food Safety Authority, 2015 Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of Cygro(R) 10G (maduramicin ammonium-α) for turkeys
EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) The additive XTRACT® Evolution-B, Code X60-6930, is a preparation of carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde and capsicum oleoresin and is intended to be used as a zootechnical feed additive for chickens for fattening. Based on a tolerance study in which chickens for fattening tolerated a 10-fold overdose of the additive, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concludes that XTRACT is safe for chickens for fattening at the maximum proposed dose (100 mg/kg complete feed). No increase in the exposure of consumers to any of the active substances contained the additive is expected. Therefore, the Panel concludes that use of XTRACT in feed for chickens for fattening under the proposed conditions of use is safe for consumers. It would be prudent to consider the additive to be a skin, eye and respiratory tract irritant and a skin sensitiser. The use of XTRACT at the recommended levels is safe for the environment. XTRACT has the potential to be efficacious in chickens for fattening at the recommended dose of 100 mg/kg complete feed. The use of additive under the proposed conditions does not affect the sensory properties of meat products from chickens. © European Food Safety Authority, 2015 Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of XTRACT(R) Evolution-B, Code X60-6930 (carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde and capsicum oleoresin), as a feed additive for chickens for fattening
EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) Biomin®C3 is a preparation of strains of Enterococcus faecium, Bifidobacterium animalis and Lactobacillus salivarius. It is currently authorised in the European Union for use in feed for chickens for fattening. Application now has been made for an extension of use to chickens reared for laying and minor avian species other than laying species, for use in water for drinking and for the removal of a maximum dose. A tolerance study using water as the delivery system showed that consumption of 100 times the currently authorised maximum authorised dose in feed did not cause adverse effects in chickens for fattening. Thus, delivery of comparable doses of the additive via water for drinking is considered to be as safe for chickens for fattening as delivery via feed. Inclusion of a dose of 5 × 1012 colony-forming units (CFU)/L in the tolerance study without ill effects indicates that there would be no safety implications if the current maximum dose for chickens for fattening were withdrawn. The conclusions on safety for chickens for fattening, including the need for a maximum dose, would also apply to chickens reared for laying and minor avian species to the point of lay. Biomin®C3 has the potential to improve the performance of chickens for fattening at a minimum dose of 1 × 108< CFU/kg of complete feedingstuffs or the equivalent dose (5 × 107 CFU/L) when delivered in water for drinking. The additive is also considered to have the potential to be efficacious when used in chickens reared for laying and minor avian species to the point of lay at a minimum dose of 1 × 108 CFU/kg of complete feedingstuffs or 5 × 107 CFU/L water for drinking. The additive is compatible with the coccidiostats robenidine hydrochloride, maduramycin ammonium, diclazuril, decoquinate, narasin, nicarbazin and narasin/nicarbazin.© European Food Safety Authority, 2015 Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of Biomin®C3 (Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. animalis, Lactobacillus salivarius ssp. salivarius and Enterococcus faecium) as feed additive for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying and minor avian species other than laying species
EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (CEF) This scientific opinion of the EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids deals with the safety evaluation of the recycling processes "Baltija Eco PET", "Eurocast", "Fernholz", "Formas y Envases", and "Klöckner Pentaplast" (EU register numbers RECYC0118, RECYC0111, RECYC0113, RECYC0115 and RECYC0121 respectively), which are all based on the same Starlinger Decon technology. The decontamination efficiency of all these processes was demonstrated using the same challenge test. The input of all the processes is washed and dried PET flakes originating from collected post-consumer PET containers, mainly bottles, containing no more than 5 % of PET from non-food consumer applications. Through this technology washed and dried PET flakes are pre-heated before being solid state polymerised (SSP) in a continuous reactor at high temperature under vacuum and gas flow. Having examined the challenge test provided, the Panel concluded that the pre-heating (step 2) and the decontamination in the continuous SSP reactor (step 3) are the critical steps that determine the decontamination efficiency of the processes. The operating parameters to control their performance are well defined and are temperature, pressure, residence time and gas flow for step 2 and 3. Under these conditions it was demonstrated that the recycling processes under evaluation, using a Starlinger Decon technology, are able to ensure that the level of migration of potential unknown contaminants into food is below a conservatively modelled migration of 0.1 μg/kg food. Therefore, the Panel concluded that the recycled PET obtained from these processes intended to be used at up to 100 % for the manufacture of materials and articles for contact with all types of foodstuffs for long term storage at room temperature, with or without hotfill is not considered of safety concern.© European Food Safety Authority, 2015 Scientific Opinion on the safety evaluation of the following processes based on Starlinger Decon technology used to recycle post-consumer PET into food contact materials: "Baltija Eco PET", "Eurocast", "Fernholz", "Formas y Envases" and "Klöckner Pentaplast"

An expert workshop "OTC medicines: the role of good classification in promoting medication safety and accessibility in Europe" organised by the Council of Europe's European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines and Healthcare (EDQM) and the Agency for Medicinal Products and Medical Devices (HALMED) was held from 20 to 21 November 2014 in Zagreb. Nearly 100 participants from 19 countries in Europe, representing national and European competent drug authorities, ministries of health, healthcare professionals, patients' organisations, the pharmaceutical industry and pharmaceutical wholesalers involved in classification of medicines as regard their supply. Welcome speeches were held by Dr Susanne Keitel, PhD, the Director of EDQM, Dr Viola Macolić Šarinić, MD, PhD, the Head of HALMED and chair of the EDQM's Committee of Experts on the Classification of Medicines as Regards their Supply (CD-P-PH/PHO). The workshop was aimed at providing extended knowledge to participants and to familiarise them with the work of the Committee of Experts on the Classification of Medicines as regards their Supply (CD-P-PH/PHO), which annually issues recommendations to health authorities of European Pharmacopoeia member states for the classification of medicines and establishes good classification practices, and to collect feedback from the different stakeholders, including patient associations.

In future, we will comment on medicinal product names applied for (names of human medicines applied for under the mutual recognition (MRP) and decentralised procedures (DCP)) on Day 50 for MRP and on Day 100 for DCP with Denmark as concerned member state, and on Day 70 with Denmark as reference member state. This takes place at request from the pharmaceutical industry. Subject to approval of name However, this procedure is subject to the final approval of a name, because in the period until a marketing authorisation has been granted for a medicinal product, other medicinal product names may have been approved that can be confused with the medicinal product name applied for. Consequently, companies should note that the longer the clock stop period for an application, the greater the probability that the medicinal product name applied for has already been approved for another medicinal product, since it is not possible to reserve a name during the procedure. In addition, other circumstances may also arise, such as changed naming practice, with the result that the name cannot be approved. Regarding medicinal product names applied for under the purely national procedure, we will continue to comment on the name applied for both on Day 0 and when we send our Day 110 letter. As regards veterinary medicines, we will also comment on the name applied for on Day 54 (MRP) as well as on Day 100 (DCP). We only evaluate proposals for medicinal product names based on an actual application. You can read more about the practice for the naming of medicines on our website.
The combination of low-dose aspirins and anticoagulant medicines can cause severe bleeding. Consequently, we have published new material describing the risk of this combination to patients with heart flutters and doctors. About 100,000 Danes suffer from heart flutters, and every year between 15,000 and 20,000 new patients are diagnosed with heart flutters. Heart flutters can be dangerous, because there is an increased risk of blood clots. One out of five blood clots in the brain is caused by heart flutters. The risk of heart flutters increases with age, and around one in ten people above 75 years suffers from heart flutters. Combination causes an increased risk of bleeding Most patients suffering from heart flutters benefit from treatment with anticoagulant medicines like Marevan® (warfarin) that reduces the risk of blood clots. Around every tenth patient with heart flutters also takes Hjertemagnyl®, a low-dose aspirin, in combination with Marevan®. For patients who are being treated with Marevan®, treatment with Hjertemagnyl® does not offer further protection against blood clots. However, the risk of bleeding increases. Consequently, we have published new material describing the risk of this combination and what patients should be particularly aware of; the material is aimed at patients with heart flutters and doctors (in Danish only). For example, the publication advises patients to inform their doctor of the medicines they take, including over-the-counter medicine.

I don't know about selling or building up short positions (most positions couldn't get much shorter than now), but I think it's a great time to buy some depressed bank stocks or some GM stocks. The big-name banks are on the rebound. Post bankruptcy GM will, over time, be a winner. Don't do it, however, unless you're sophisticated enough to realize that any future profits are largely zero sum, windfall gains that could blow away with another melt-down in this starting-to-recover U. S. economy.
There is a story about households de-levering, looking for bargains, wages depressed because of unemployment or underemployment, and the new shopping habits for the American consumer. Curious then how Consumer Discretionary indices like XLY, are still rising. Seems like a good time to sell or build up short position.

Complete Deja Vu of 1998. In 1998 the Asian Financial crisis caused the exact same trading down in the Tiger economies. I remember reading about secretaries in Seoul and Bangkok who used to be able to afford Mercedes and Louis Vitton. When the lower workers can afford products meant for rich folks you know there is a big bubble. And yes the exact same thing happened here except people were using their home equity and debt. They surely weren't making more. In fact over the last 10 years the average US worker is making 5% less now (29% increase in wages subtracted from a 34% increase in the CPI). So in effect it really was a lost decade here.

$1.6 million loan will be used to build plastics-to-fuel facility in Akron, Ohio.
The state of Ohio's Controlling Board has approved a $1.6 million loan through the agency's Commercial Acceleration Loan Fund (CALF) to help fund Vadxx Energy LLC's plastics-to-fuel facility in Akron, Ohio. The goal of the loan fund is to bridge the gap between an early-stage entrepreneurs' need for capital and the traditional commercial sources of financing that are primarily reserved for established businesses.
Vadxx Energy, which is headquartered in Cleveland, plans to build a facility in Akron that will allow the company to convert recyclable and nonrecyclable plastics into various energy products. The total project cost is expected to total $2.4 million. Vadxx's technology captures the energy embedded in plastics and returns it to a useful form by essentially reversing the process by which plastics are created. The plastics are cooked, cleaned and cooled in a closed and controlled system. The process converts plastics back into diesel additive, fuel gas (similar to natural gas), and inert char (similar to carbon black).
When fully operational, Vadxx says it expects to produce more than 100,000 barrels of synthetic oil and gas per year. The equipment that will be installed at the Akron plant will cost $17 million and will be funded by Liberation Capital. The building component will be funded by a third party for approximately $4 million and will be leased to Vadxx Akron. The city of Akron will transfer 5 acres of land to Vadxx Energy for $1 per year, plus a percentage of the project's future cash flow.
The company says it expects to complete construction on the facility by the end of 2014 with testing on the facility taking place the first quarter of 2015.

Longview — During his 30-plus year career in education, Longview ISD Superintendent James Wilcox has seen the focus on career readiness shift from one end of the workforce spectrum to the other.
In recent years, schools have guided students toward a four-year university degree, but now, with jobs becoming more technical, the pendulum is swinging back toward vocational or skilled labor degrees, Wilcox said.
"We came to the conclusion that not everyone is going to college," Wilcox said Monday during a workshop designed to highlight the need for career path changes.

Star Wars The Clone Wars Version 4.0Apr 15, 2014 Full Version 311 comments
In development since August of 2010. Version 4.0 has evolved and been changed many times to make it the massive full conversion mod that it is today.
This mod was original made by Nett40. He has since moved on from the community and our team has taken on the task of continuing the mod. We have made and are still working to make a total conversion mod based on The Clone Wars as seen in Both the 2004 Cartoon and the new Clone Wars series using inspiration from the movies, Republic Commando, Battle Front 1 & 2 and other popular Star Wars sources.
This Clone War era mod would not have been possible without the help and aid of the whole modding community, THANKS TO ALL...
Please contact us ASAP, if you have any concerns against my use of your material, or if you simply feel that I haven't credited you properly

Well for starters their are some known issues which we were unable to resolve.
-The Abandoned Sensor array and Pirate Outpost can not be captured
-Attacking certain turrets and wallsaround CIS bases with explosives and
heavy weapons damages the base shield for unknown reasons. The shield now
regenerates health to compensate for the issue.
-A few nightvision clones have momentary animation pauses while moving the
clones in a large group.
-Occasionally Anakin and ObiWan have frozen while attacking droids using
their Berserker ability.
So we will be working to fix these issues for a later patch. We also plan to add some things in the 4.1 patch
-Omega Squad with
stealth armor
-2nd Airborne
-Aquatic Units
-Possibly redo Durge
-Kul Teska
-Scorpenek annihilator
-Underwater Ground map for Mon Calamari
-Ringo Vinda
We will also be listening to what the fans may want.
Now with 4.0 FINALLY done I for one will be taking a long break from this mod and Star Wars in general besides helping the Vong mod. I am beyond burned out after working on this for so long. I will be working on 4.1 here and their but as far as modding goes I will be working on a non Star Wars mod for a while.
Here is shot of my first ship for the mod. I am working on textures for 4 others currently and working on Infantry and Vehicle models.
Model by Kharcov Texture by Ozzy667
So stay tuned for my page for this new mod which for now will be called Earth 2100 and stay tuned for 4.1.Thanks for all you support.

Sorry for the problem with the demo. I made a minor mistake with the installer, but everything is fine now! Enjoy the demo! The_Darker_Side
Were you not able to install the new test version of the mod because you had the steam version of FOC and didnt have instructions on how to install in...
This is the third edition of a total conversion mod, for Empire at War - Forces of Corruption, which I have compiled from various mods, addons and donors...
This a small patch, which adds some of the CIS symbols (not all), fix some bugs in skirmish and add a new Republic hero... There will be a new full version...
This is version 1.5 of the total conversion CLONE WAR ERA mod for EaW/FoC. I've compiled Clone Wars era models, icon and textures from various mods, packs...
(freaking characters limit :S)
3. Land tactical combat is a disappointment (no offense). Don't be confused though, the models are great and the Separatist army is kick-*** on land, but it lacks realism. The maps and population cap are so small that a battle in the real Clone Wars scale is impossible. I know that it will take a hell load of work and you probably wont do it, but: A) expand the maps and make the paths much more wider. I have lost many battalions of battle droids and AATs just because they attack in a one-man line =_=; B) Increase the size of CIS and Republic units (the number of units in a group, I mean). As written in Wookipedia, a Clone Trooper Company consists of 4 Platoons (144 troops) and a Clone Battalion consists of 2 Companies (28,000). Of course, considering the lag, an increase of 2x would suffice. Also you should consider either enlarging the game camera on land or making most stuff smaller.
4. Awesome mod! I've been playing it for 3 weeks now with my friends and tbh, Separatists own! Good job on all the models and can't wait for v4.
They are scaled to be somewhat equal. Clones are in Platoons of 28 while droids come in a company of about 128. If we make the Clones in a Platoon the droids would need to have like 500. I am looking to increase the land cap but I am not gonna make the unit sizes bigger to avoid complications. I am gonna try to adjust the units configuration to look more realistic and I have adjusted the fire accuracy and power of infantry units already to cause more missed shots to fly passed the units being shot at. Looks a little better in my opinion.
The space units are still being worked on and many adjustments have been made already.
Thank You for the suggestions.
Regarding the Republic and CIS situation I have several suggestions and comments:
1. Being a hardcore Confederate player I enjoy beating the pulp out of the Republic and pirates. However, the Republic (btw note that I am using v3.0, not the v4 test) plays really crappy. For some reason you have scripted the CIS to play very well and they do indeed put up a good fight, but the Republic AI is off the charts in intellect to such an extent that I once managed to destroy a fleet of 3 Venators, 9 Acclamators and a hell load of fighters with only a Providence and 4 Munificents. You really should work on improving the AI. :)
2. The CIS becomes unstoppable in space after tech lvl 4. I suggest giving the Republic a new ship to counter it. However, definitely not the Mandator. If the Republic get a Mandator, which is a Star Dreadnought, the CIS have no chance. Seriously that would be fighting against a freaking Executor. I propose giving it a smaller ship, still beating the Venator with around 400 meters: the Tector-class Star Destroyer. Since the destroyer lacks a hangar, it will need Venators to accompany it. However, it has extremely thick armor and will survive much longer than a Venator in the same position. IMO the Tector will add a great deal of strategy to the Republic and will, at the same time, stop fleets with several Lucrehulks do.
The CIS has the malevolence, try out the test v.4. The Republic stands no chance against the subjugator, it alone can take on any republic fleet the ai musters.
Giving the republic a comperable ship would be nice, that way it's not such a steamroll.
I have to agree with the Tector as an addon, since I just read the Mandator can take on 1,000 Recusants at once...
They either need that or make Republic ships build 20% faster if Kuat is controlled I guess. If they can't win with power, then they at least need numbers. The Tector would be a nice addon though. Another nice addon would be some type of superweapons for the Republic, like a Procurator cruiser. Considering their limited hyperdrive, they could only be allowed to jump from planets 1 at a time, and at a slow pace, for gameplay balance. The Republic needs an advantage over the CIS, I don't care what, they just need one. And you should put Fighter Strikes into the game, like just a quick run firing lasers at a targer, and it moves and follows the target. 2,500 credits? Take this into consideration :D
I've been playing the test version on several skirmish maps, ground. I've noticed a couple issues, minor ones, the death clones of several units, like the halfire droid and the MTT do not disappear after their destruction and linger until the game is completed.
When playing as either the republic or the separatists neither side have access to the full range of units that are available in the GC, nor access to all the heroes, all the jedi for the republic, and no grevious or any other ground hero.
I do like that the ground skirmish population isn't limited or locked in place, starting out with 92 is awesome, as compared to being limited to fighting with 10 or less.
I have an idea for the Mandator. To create the slow hyperdrives, you could give the same kind of speed that the Death Star had in vanilla EaW. That way you'd have a good remake. If you don't want to do that, you could just have them spawn as reinforcements at space stations or certain important planets, as I have noticed Lucrehulks do.
In a units code it has the hyperdrive speed. Changing the hyperdrive speed is easy.
The Mandator should only be built on Kuat, and cost a LOT of $$. but be worth it.
In the 3.5 Add on from Z, you can build the Mandator and the Eclipse provided you have kuat drive shipyards built there.
So, I guess the Mandator could work as a good balancer then, I suppose. Also, I like Mandators lol.

I've been making a lot of edits to that lately, and I'm not sure whether my work is accurate or not.
Specifically, there's one line that's kind of dubious - the final line of the Experience table, where I put a footnote with an extra row of what the Level-1 experience points would be in the first two generations.
I also noticed that the old formulas were deleted. Were they deleted out of non-use, or did somebody like the new formulas?
Also, I want to add this picture, but the database is locked... >_>

MINNEAPOLIS — Boosted by earnings gains in four of its five business units, overall net income at Cargill rose to $409 million in the second quarter ended Nov. 30, 2012, up sharply from $100 million in the same period a year ago. Revenues in the second quarter also increased, climbing 6 percent to $35.2 billion.
"Cargill posted a solid second quarter, with earnings balanced and diversified across the breadth of the company," said Greg Page, chairman and chief executive officer. "The steps we've taken over the past months to focus attention on what our customers value most, change how we work, instill more cost discipline and invest in growth are paying off in the current year. Most importantly, these changes are key to delivering sustainable growth year in and year out."
Strong global trading and risk management results in more fundamentally driven markets and an improved margin environment in oilseed processing in several regions boosted earnings in Cargill's origination and processing segment to well above the year-ago level.
Improved earnings also were noted in the agriculture services segment, driven in large part to better operating results in animal nutrition, the company said. Cargill said rising feed ingredient costs were a challenge, but performance in the segment was enhanced by the integration of Provimi, which the company said has brought more nutritional expertise, technology and products to the portfolio since the company was acquired in 2011. The North American farm services businesses benefited from large grain shipments in Canada, but the impact of drought-reduced crops in the Midwest held US results below the year-ago level, Cargill said.
Cargill's risk management and financial segment reversed course from a year ago, rebounding from a loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to post an earnings gain in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Last year's results were bogged down by a period when financial markets were stressed by debt turmoil in the United States and Europe. More recently, the segment's asset management activities established a better position in which to benefit from stronger financial markets and improved investor sentiment. The segment's energy businesses were essentially flat with last year on a combined basis.
Earnings rose in Cargill's industrial segment, although deicing salt production volume lagged typical levels due to the inventory carryover from last year's mild North American winter.
The one segment that did not post an earnings gain in the second quarter was the food ingredients and applications segment, which eased from the year-ago quarter. The segment is made up of two groups of businesses: food ingredients and animal protein.
"Combined earnings in food ingredients were down moderately from last year's strong performance," Cargill said. "The slippage was mostly related to excess capacity in the North American ethanol market and the return of profits in some product lines to more normalized levels. The animal protein businesses posted a combined profit compared with a loss last year when processing margins in the US beef industry were sharply negative. Most of the meat businesses benefited from improved volumes or margins in the current period, even though results were tempered by higher raw material or livestock feeding costs."
Cargill said it has shifted capital spending from acquisitions toward new, expanded and modernized facilities that support the growth objectives of customers and the company.
"We have a record $2.4 billion of large projects under construction in 13 countries," Page said. "As these facilities come on line, they strengthen Cargill's supply chain, risk management and innovation capabilities. We want our customers and stakeholders to think of Cargill first when they are looking for a solution or an opportunity. These investments help us better serve their needs and become the partner of choice."
For the six months ended Nov. 30, earnings totaled $1.38 billion, up from $336 million in the same period a year ago. Net revenues rose to $69 billion from $67.9 billion.

They should make a kindle version of this book...
Thanx, It helped a lot!!!
998 of 1,038 people found the following review helpful
From a first time Kindle buyer: Good, but not perfect,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device (9.7" Display, U.S. Wireless) (Electronics)
First off, I am a first time kindle buyer, so this review will be more geared to those buyers thinking of entering into the kindle market, not a comparison of past editions.
My first impression of the Kindle DX was that it was actually very small compared to what I expected. The entire device is slightly smaller (in height and width) than a piece of paper, with the screen taking up approximately 85-90% of the front. This was actually a nice surprise, since I wanted something very portable, but good for magazines/research articles. After seeing the size of the DX, I think a K2 would have been way too small for what I want. At the same time, the device is very hefty. Picking it up, it becomes almost tiring to hold up in one hand for too long (another reason I think this one is better geared toward short articles instead of extended novel reading). It has a nice solid feel to it, but for some reason I was expecting it to be lighter.
The kindle only takes a couple of seconds to power up and immediately goes to the last article you were reading. A row of buttons are positioned on the right, which let you go to the main home page, go to the next page of an article, previous page, bring up a menu, or go "back". There is also a small four-way joystick to navigate around (which also has the ability to be pressed for selections). The joystick is very sensitive and easy to navigate with, although not overly sensitive that you hit things by mistake (at least very often - it has happened a couple of times so far).
For those in the market for an ereader and can't decide between the Kindle and another device, I can tell you what made me go toward the Kindle: Whispernet. It is a free, no subscription based service that comes on all Kindles. You get free access to the internet anywhere Sprint reception can be found. You can purchase books/magazines/newspapers anywhere, and have them in less than 60 seconds. You can access the web, check your web-based email, look up directions, find weather reports, movie times, etc. Although the Kindle terms say that normal web browsing might result in extra charges, my assumption is that this clause will just cover amazon if they choose to charge for web in the future. As of right now, everything is free. The Web Browser is very rudimentary and does not show pages very well. Even most pages designed for mobile phones showed up badly for me, although some were okay. The browser is very slow, but could really come in handy if some information was needed and no internet was available.
I have tried several blogs and magazines, as well as the native pdf viewer and all seem to produce well formatted articles with crisp, clear pictures. Lighter pictures tend to show up better as darker pictures blur together if they do not have enough contrasting elements. The one problem I have noticed with the pdf viewer is that some text/elements can end up being very small and hard to see. The pdf viewer is stuck on one size, which is slightly smaller than most pdf's are intended to be viewed at. There is no way to increase font size, and the only way to zoom is by rotating the display. This zooms in on the top or bottom half of the screen. Rotating to a landscape display actually helps that problem a great deal, but some sort of zoom feature would have been nice. You can search in pdf documents or go to certain pages, but it is impossible to annotate as the Kindle lets you do in normal document files. Pdf documents can be sent to the Kindle DX via usb cable or through a special email that is set up for the device. However, documents that are sent via email are charged a small fee (I was charged $0.45 for a pdf slightly larger than 2MB - I will use the usb cable from now on unless it's absolutely necessary to use email). Blogs I have subscribed to have continuously updated over the time I've had the DX... it is nice to have a constant stream of info to read even when not in the position to surf the web. Most blogs and magazines are subscription based with costs ranging from free to $1.99 or more for the more popular ones. This fact turns many people off since blogs can be found free on the net, but the convenience of having them constantly updated with no internet connection required and brought to you in an easy to read format makes them somewhat worth it in my opinion. Having read through some and watched constant updates while writing this review, I think I will be more likely to keep the blog subscriptions even more than the magazines subscriptions. Most blogs and magazines give you a 14-day trial to see how well you like them before committing to a purchase. They can be organized into separate articles/sections, and are easy to navigate.
There is a text-to-speech function that can be used in most books (Random House published books excluded because of a lawsuit brought against amazon). The sound of it seems a little old fashioned with an extremely computer-sounding voice, but it is a nice addition. You can also play MP3's, but don't expect extremely high-quality sound. The Kindle DX has a earphone jack on the top of the device, or small speakers on the bottom of the device for these funtctions.
A keyboard is present at the bottom of the device. It has a QWERTY format, but with the numbers located on the top row of letters (a shift button selects them). It is fairly easy to type on in my opinion, but takes a little getting used to. The buttons are small, rounded and don't take much to push. For this reason, it is difficult to tell if you hit the button acurately or not, and often times you find you hit wrong keys by accident. The Kindle actually tends to be a bit wide to easily type if you have small hands like me. Larger hands should do fine.
As for the screen, the e-ink is easy to read, easy on the eyes, and it is crisp and has a nice resolution. Highly detailed pictures showed up nicely as long as they weren't too dark. The only complaint I would have about the screen is that it is very reflective. I need to make sure I'm not around any bright lights before reading. Otherwise, the glare interferes.
SHOULD YOU BUY THE DX?: Well, I think that comes down to what you want to read. The DX is a nice reader (although expensive!). It is probably the perfect size for reading magazine articles, journal articles, and newspapers. The articles come out as being crisp and easy to read, and having them constantly delivered to you is great. I think the device might be a little on the heavy/large side for continous reading of books, so for that, I would probably go with the Kindle 2 instead. For textbooks, I think the verdict is still out. Being able to flip through the pages of textbooks and quickly find information still isn't completely replicated by the Kindle. However, the search features of the Kindle could prove to be invaluable in studying, and there's no doubt the kindle helps in areas of portability. The DX replicates figures and images nicely, but in some textbooks, color is vital. That could be the downfall of the DX when it comes to Textbooks.
CONS/FOR FUTURE KINDLES: There's quite a few things that prevent the DX from being perfect, but maybe they can be added into future editions. First and foremost: Folders/Organization! Right now, all articles/blogs/newspapers/books get clumped together in one big menu. Why is there no way to organize these and place them in categories? This would be a huge improvement and would take very little effort. Also: Color. As I just mentioned above, color is a huge part of many textbooks, articles, etc. As soon as the technology is ready, a color kindle will be a huge improvement. A memory card slot was included in the first Kindle; however it was removed in the second and DX. This needs to be added back. Especially for those of us with large pdf libraries, we need the extra memory slot. Not to expand the memory so much as to just give us a portable way of getting articles onto the kindle. As of right now, you can be charged to have articles sent to the Kindle, or we can be near a computer. Why not add the memory card slot back and give us one more option? A better web browser, some sort of side-lighting for nighttime reading, touchscreen, thinner, and lighter are other suggestions I can think of to strive for.
UPDATE: So, after using the DX for a while now, I have come to absolutely love it. Unfortunately, so has my girlfriend, so I don't get to see it much anymore.
A few small things have come to annoy me though, so I would like to point those out. First, the screen rotation is becoming more and more annoying. I find the screen rotating on me many times when I don't want it to. Slightly changing the position of the device suddenly leads to the screen being rotated, and then it takes another few seconds of shifting it around to get it back the way you want. There should be a way to turn screen rotation off if you know you won't want it bothering you for a while. A simple setting could then be turned on again for normal use. (UPDATE: Apparently, you can disable the auto-rotation. User A.Nichols wrote in the comments: "Push the button with the Aa (to change font size) and you'll find the option to set change screen rotation from Auto (default) to portrait. I found the screen rotation to be annoying also when reading, it's easy to accidentally change the angle.")
Another thing that has come to bother me is the screen lag. Very often, it's as though the screen sticks after you push buttons. You push them again and again, and then the screen finally unsticks and you fly through 3-4 pages. It's difficult to tell if the device didn't register the button you pushed or if it's just running behind. Unfortunately, this has resulted in my purchasing a book that I didn't mean to (amazon was nice enough to remove the charge though). Usually you get a "Would you like to cancel your order?" immediately after purchasing on the kindle, but this time I guess I pushed too much and flew through that screen too.
Even with these small issues, I can't put my Kindle down. It is the best money I have spent in a long time.

Just thought I would add that you CAN disable the screen rotation. Push the button with the Aa (to change font size) and you'll find the option to set change screen rotation from Auto (default) to portrait. I found the screen rotation to be annoying also when reading, it's easy to accidentally change the angle.

I absolutely LOVE my new dx. I can't get other things in life done fast enough so I can get back to reading.
To me, what's so cool, are the hundreds of FREE books ready to be downloaded in a flash at Amazon.
I've read of other websites offering them free but I've stuck with Amazon, so far.
Every option on mine works perfectly, and I am like a kid in a candy store playing with it.
I SO highly recommend the dx to anyone who enjoys reading. I plan to read all of the old classics,
the ones we were required to read in school but didn't understand:)
This would be the most fantastic Christmas present for anyone retired who now has the time to enjoy books.

Thanks for the tip on the auto-rotate, I've been searching all over for this. Very unintuitive to put this under the font size button imho.

I'd have never found this disable "button" without the comment by A Nicols! Talk about weird! My Kindle DX has been shipped today, my partner bought it for me, I'm getting so excited about it coming. This discussion has been really helpful.

Thanks for your review. I'm a first time e-book owner and very excited to get my DX. It was posted today so am patiently waiting for it. So glad I followed you posts, I'd have never found the disable auto rotate button without it!
Thanks Ali

Thanks so much for this. My partner order the Kindle DX for me on the weekend and it's been posted today. I'm in Australia so have an impatient wait for the post. I would never have found the disable button by accident. One of the first things I'm going to do is disable the auto rotate. Any more suggestions or little secrets?
Thanks again,

You mentioned color and touch screen technology on the Kindle.
You should watch the interview that Jeff Bezos did with Charlie Rose that is available on the Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi 6" Display with New E Ink Pearl Technology (priced at $189) page where they discussed the possibility of the Kindle with a touch screen and color. It was a very interesting interview and can answer your questions.
