signs of spring...
The snow is nearly gone and we're supposed to have 50-60 degree weather the rest of the week.
The earliest daffs are budding and today I noticed hyacinths peeking out.
What signs are you seeing???
About the same, Nancy -- the hyacinths are at least showing a little color and daffs are ready for full bloom at any time.
Going to plant my onion bed very soon, as the dark of the moon will be upon us before we know it.
When the redbuds pop and forsythia blooms, it will be time to really get things going around here. Can.Hardly.Wait.--
My violas are fragrant. I have some in the open and some near the house in a sheltered area. When I go up my steps I can smell them. The ones by the house take winter better; it must be warmer there.
The bulbs are coming up too and a few are blooming. Winter honeysuckle is blooming and has been for quite a while.
Looks like you're all a bit ahead of my area.
Helen, your violas sound lovely. I just have one here and one there. Not enough to get a nice fragrance.
Sunny, are there certain things you plant when you see the redbuds bloom? Seems I'm always a bit late starting those early veggies.
My first crocus is blooming and the garlic looks happy...
Nancy, I haven't planted any seeds yet. Have torn the house apart looking for a note I made to myself one year -- "when the lilacs have leaves the size of mouse ears, it is time to ......." ? What? I know you prune roses when the forsythia is blooming. Plant potatoes around St. Patrick's Day. Wood ashes around lilacs I guess when I clean the fireplace out.
I planted my onion bed yesterday with white Candy, red Candy, Texas Sweet, and a bag of white bulbs. YUM! Also planted starts of bok choy.
Thanks I'll put some ashes on my asparagus.
I bought three deciduous azaleas at Lowe's in Carthage. Two were gallon size nice plants for $9 and one is a big plant maybe 3 gallon for $23. I think I got the pick of the best plants because I shopped early. I got one scoop of steamy mushroom compost from Joplin Lawn and Garden.
They had impatients too - way way too early for those unless you kept them inside. I wonder if they are protecting them today and this coming week.

Key resignation
Prodi's centre-left government, which comprises far left communists and centrist Catholics, will face the confidence vote in the chamber of deputies on Wednesday.
Clemente Mastella, a key ally in Prodi's government, resigned as justice minister last week and on Monday said his Udeur party would oppose Prodi in a vote of confidence.
Mastella resigned after being named in a corruption probe along with his wife.
He claims the corruption investigation was an effort to discredit him for his efforts to reform Italy's judiciary.
"The experiment with the centre-left is over," he said, after his party's withdrawal from the coalition.
The withdrawal of Udeur, which holds three votes in the senate, has grim implications for Prodi in an upper house vote, given that his coalition now has a two-seat deficit in that chamber.
To survive the senate vote, Prodi would need the support of some of the seven left-leaning senators-for-life, who have cast crucial votes on several occasions.
Berlusconi criticism
The centre-right opposition, which is led by Silvio Berlusconi, the former prime minister, has called for Prodi's resignation and for snap elections to be held.
"I think there's no other way than to take this crisis into account," Berlusconi said.
Should Prodi resign, Giorgio Napolitano, Italy's president, could dissolve parliament and call new elections.
Alternatively, he could ask Prodi to stay on as a caretaker prime minister, pending a permanent replacement.
The Prodi government fell briefly in February last year but was reinstated after a vote of confidence in the senate.

The prime minister's grip on power remains fragile as he only has a wafer-thin majority in the Senate.

There was a lot of "hot stuff" in the New Richmond Fire Hall on Saturday, April 2.
The second annual Chili Feed and Cook-Off attracted quite a crowd Saturday night. Eighteen participants entered their chili concoctions in three categories: mild, medium and hot.
A panel of judges critiqued the anonymous samples of chili based on appearance, aroma and taste. The panel consisted of New Richmond Mayor Fred Horne, Becky Miller, Joyce Melby, Karen Peterson and Brian Everson.

One of the major anticipated applications for robots is in care for the elderly and helping them with daily tasks. This means that robots have got to adapt to human lifestyles, not the other way around, because granny can't be expected to program the robot or rearrange her house to suit the machine's limitations. The Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute's Lifelong Robotic Object Discovery (LROD) project aims to address this by developing ways to use visual and non-visual data to help robots to identify and pick up objects so they can work in a normal human environment without supervision.

Waverider makes hypersonic history
It was fourth time lucky for Boeing's X-51A Waverider, as it blasted into the history books on Monday. The fourth test of the hypersonic drone achieved the longest scramjet-powered hypersonic flight yet, hitting a top speed of Mach 5.1. Dropped from a B-52H bomber out of Edwards Air Force Base in California, the unmanned craft flew at top speed for three and a half minutes before it made a controlled dive into the Pacific Ocean after six minutes of flight.

Astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimter Array (ALMA) telescope to more accurately map dusty star-forming galaxies in the early Universe. The new telescope is significantly more powerful than other similar devices, and in just a few hours, using less than a quarter of its full capacity, was able to double the number of confirmed observations of this type. Read More
Imagine an aircraft that is silent, invisible to infrared detectors, has zero emissions and can hover in an eerie manner that helicopters can't. Now imagine it coming from technology currently used to suck dust out of living room air. That's what a team of researchers at MIT is doing. They've conducted a study that indicates that ionic thrusters, currently a science fair curiosity, might one day take to the skies. Read More
Technology has advanced markedly since the dawn of the silicon age, but our portable gadgets and gizmos are still largely held back by the limitations of their power source. Scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS in Dresden report progress in this regard, with the development of a new longer-lasting lithium-sulfur battery that has the potential to outperform lithium-ion batteries, at a lower cost. Read More
The University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom has unveiled a virtual "talking head" that is capable of expressing a range of human emotions. The team believes that the lifelike face, called Zoe, is the most expressive controllable avatar ever created, and could one day be used as a digital personal assistant. Read More
Produced at least as far back as 5,000 BC, beer has been with us for a long time. But coming third only to water and tea in terms of worldwide popularity means that the lifespan of individual beers is more likely to be measured in days or weeks rather than years or decades. The exception is if they're preserved at the bottom of the Baltic Sea in a shipwreck. One such shipwrecked beer that is about 170 years old has been salvaged and analyzed and will be reproduced using modern industrial techniques. Read More
Chances are that if you were heading into battle, you wouldn't wish that you were covered in sponges. It turns out that the sea sponge, however, has a unique structure that allows it to be flexible while remaining relatively impervious to predators. Scientists have now simulated this structure, in a lab-created material that may someday find use in body armor. Read More
Replacement "bioteeth" from stem cells a step closer
New research funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Biomedical Research Centre and King's College London, UK, may result in bio-engineered replacement teeth which are generated from a person's own gum cells. Though artificial whole-tooth implants are currently available to people who are missing a tooth, such implants are unable to fully reproduce the natural root structure of a tooth. This means that in time, friction caused by eating and other movement of the jaw can result in a loss of jaw bone. Read More
Australian scientists have successfully revived and reactivated the genome of an extinct frog. The "Lazarus Project" team implanted cell nuclei from tissues collected in the 1970s and kept in a conventional deep freezer for 40 years into donor eggs from a distantly-related frog. Some of the eggs spontaneously began to divide and grow to early embryo stage with tests confirming the dividing cells contained genetic material from the extinct frog. Read More

A natural eye look has its place in a woman's makeup repertoire, but sometimes an occasion calls for something a bit bolder. This kohl pencil glides on easily, adding instant drama to your look, while the waterproof formula stays put for up to eight hours. Plus, each pencil has a handy built-in smudger and sharpener, so you can create well-defined or sultry looks
This eyeliner is excellent. Creamy and stay put are always on my Need list when it comes to purchasing pencil liners and this product checks both boxes. It's even cooler to know that it's pigmented enough for my carmel complexion. Also, the smudge tip is uber useful. Two thumbs up!5
I received this pencil as a sample in the color "Rose Gold" and I am in love with it. I always use it in my inner corner next to my eyeliner just to add a bit of a pop to my eyes. It's really shimmery, but not TOO shimmery. I used to use sparkly eyeshadow in my corner and it got annoying having sparkles everywhere, so this is the perfect solution. And it goes on so smoothly! Definitely planning on buying some more colors!5
I recieved the Electric navy Vasanti Kajal Extreme Intense Eye Pencil. I have always been a fan of navy blue eye liners. It goes well for any season. and it is a very versatile beauty product. Not only is it long lasting and the application is smooth..This product is NOT tested on animals / and NO animal derived ingredients. which I am a huge advocate for! awesome product!
I am a typical black eyeliner kinda girl, maybe a little white on the inner corners once in a while. However, I was excited when I got the sample in Rose Gold, it was such a pretty looking shade. I used it when getting ready for a date, and I was incredibly disappointed. Maybe it's just my skin tone, maybe I didn't use enough, but it didn't even look pink. Not having any extra time, I had to leave it on for the date, and it definitely lasted well. I'm thinking if I wanted something colored though, it would not be this brand.1

Best Multi-Effects Pedals
Looking for the best multi-effects pedal? There is no one-size-fits-all multi-effects pedal for every musician, but the following list contains some of the multi-effects pedals we consider to be outstanding.
Looking for the best multi-effects pedal? There is no one-size-fits-all multi-effects pedal for every musician, but the following list contains some of the multi-effects pedals we consider to be outstanding.
When Line 6 released the POD HD500 way back in 2010 they bridged the gap between the sonic capabilities of a big, bulky and hugely expensive rack-type effects unit and the portability of a multi-effects pedal. And with the POD HD500X Line 6 has offered some minor, but very well thought out changes that really positions the POD series in a class of its own.
There are three main qualities that factor in when creating a great multi-effects unit: sound quality, versatility and simplicity. No one can deny that the multi-effects units available on the market today have come a long way in terms of sound quality and versatility. But the one area that most of these units fall short at is simplicity. However, Roland seems to be nailing it of late with its BOSS ME series multi-effects units. Today I take a look at BOSS's latest offering, the ME-80.
Over the years multi-effects processors have gone from being the excitable disappointments of the guitar world to becoming a series part of any guitarist's arsenal of equipment. And over the past few years DigiTech has been a serious player in the multi-effects processor market offering guitarists units that are easy to use, affordable and versatile. Today I take a look at DigiTech's latest upgrades to its iconic RP series the RP360 and RP360XP; both which pack in some serious effects and functionalities into a handy-sized package.
The DigiTech Element and Element XP are two of DigiTech's more recent offerings that are both affordable and versatile. Both these pedals are jam packed with hundreds of effects and amp and cabinet modulations, and come complete with a built in tuner and drum machine. The only difference between the two is that the Element XP comes with an expression pedal and four additional expression-based effects.
When you're looking for a multi-effects pedal, it can often feel like you have to spend a ton of money to get a really capable piece of hardware. Generally, as you get more affordable, the pedals start hemorrhaging features, gradually shrink to the point where they're challenging to use live and the catalogue of effects gets smaller and smaller. The Zoom G5 looks like a bargain-hunting guitarist's dream: up to nine simultaneous effects with over 145 to choose from, and more memory slots than you'll ever be able to fill, all for a reasonable price. Is it too good to be true, or is the G5 really as excellent as it sounds?
Since releasing their first CE-1 Chorus Ensemble pedal in 1976, the BOSS Corporation has been a stalwart in the world of guitar effects. The latest addition to the company's flagship GT series, the GT-100, is an absolute beast of an upgrade from BOSS's last offering, the GT-10. Today we take a look at pros and the cons of the GT-100 to determine if it really is all the pedal it looks to be.
The M13 may be the flagship of Line 6's M-series of multi-effects pedals, but that doesn't mean you should discount the mid-sized M9. The bigger unit may have twice as many footswitches, but with that extra hands-free capability comes increased size and, more importantly, increased cost. The M9 (and the smaller M5) has the same selection of effects as the bigger unit, though, and with similar features it's not quite so easy to discount the less-than-goliath pedal. The real question is: does the M9 do enough to compete with its bigger brother? And how does it stand up to its mid-size competitors?
Line 6's M5 and M9 stompbox modelers have a lot to offer the average guitarist, with plenty of effects to choose from and (on the M9) enough footswitches to get you through the occasional gig without any hiccups, but the M13 takes things further. It's the big boy of the family, packing a massive 15 footswitches and up to four simultaneous effects, but it's also the most expensive. However, with Line 6's own POD HD line and the still-capable M9 to compete with, before you even consider offerings from other manufacturers such as Zoom's G5, the M13 has a lot to accomplish to make it worth the purchase.
Over the last few years the DigiTech Company has garnered a reputation for delivering great, value-for-money multi-effects units that cater to what guitarists need; and their second largest pedal in the RP series, the RP500 is no exception. The design philosophy of the RP500 according to DigiTech is to offer players the versatility of a fully-fledged switching system in a multi-effects unit that can easily be used along with an array of other pedals. Today we take an in-depth look at the pros and cons of the DigiTech RP500.

The Central California Conference swim trials got underway on Friday at Pitman High as both the Pride and Turlock High Bulldogs look to end the season on a high note. Pitman and Turlock boys had 15 top eight finishes and 10 individuals will be moving on to the finals. The girls finished with 29 top eight finishes and will have 19 representatives on day two.
The members of the Pitman High golf teamed played their best game of the season on Thursday, defeating league leaders and cross-town rivals Turlock High. The Pride earned the 205-209 victory over the Bulldogs on their home course at Diablo Grande in the final regular matchup of the season.
It was a day of redemption on Thursday for Turlock High's Jordan Bean and Aldair Lima at the Central California Conference boys Doubles Tournament at Merced High. Just two days after early elimination in the CCC boys Singles Tournament-Bean in the first round and Lima in the second-the Bulldog pair teamed up and barreled through the competition, defeating all opponents in straight sets en route to a tournament championship.
Hilmar High shutout rivals Escalon High 4-0 at home on Wednesday to take first place in the Trans Valley League.
Turlock High is now in first place in the Central California Conference girls soccer standings with only two regular season games remaining. After a dominating 5-0 victory over then first place Golden Valley High on Monday -a win that pulled them within two points of the league lead- the Bulldogs took on and took down Merced High on Wednesday, 3-0, to usurp the Cougars as the top team in the CCC.
Three weeks ago Turlock High was on the brink of its second tournament championship of the season when fate and the weather intervened. The Bulldogs were slated to take on Trans Valley League stalwarts Escalon High in the Dick Windemuth championship game when heavy rains delayed the matchup.
Two points. That's all that now separates Turlock High's girls soccer team from first place Golden Valley High in the Central California Conference standings.
Denair High continued its successful Southern Athletic League campaign on the track Saturday morning in the third SAL meet of the season. The Coyotes earned another first place finish in the boys division and nabbed a third place finish in the girls division despite a couple of absent athletes. Delhi and Turlock Christian High also experienced varying degrees of success with the Hawk boys taking third.
Denair High ousted Turlock Christian High 8-1 in Tuesday's Southern Athletic League finale.
Six Turlock athletes entered the Central California Conference singles tournament on Tuesday at Merced High with high hopes, but only two players made it past the first round.
Pitman High's track and field team placed 33rd out of 50 schools at the Oregon Relays this past Friday and Saturday. Out of the 17 Pride invitees, 10 finished in the top 10. Kelsee Derr placed first in the 100 meter hurdles heat with a time of 15.57 becoming the first Pitman representative to win a race at this event.
Turlock High's record-breaking consecutive win streak has been extended to 19 games after back-to-back victories against rival Pitman High on Wednesday and Friday. The Bulldogs shutout the Pride in both matchups-9-0 on Wednesday and 8-0 on Friday- with the help of ace hurlers Nick Voumard and Tyler Murphy, maintaining their undefeated status in the Central California Conference.
Pitman High's softball team is easing its way into playoff contention after a 5-2 victory over cross-town rival Turlock High at home on Thursday.
Turlock High's baseball team has two more players who have secured a future in the sport. Senior Nick Voumard and junior Dakota Edwards signed their respective letters of intent on Wednesday to play for California State University, Stanislaus and the University of Bridgeport.
Turlock High's boys tennis returned to winning form after back-to-back losses to Merced High and Golden Valley High in its last two matches. The Bulldogs defeated Pitman High 9-0 at home on Thursday, securing a second place league finish.
Stanislaus County dominated Merced County on Friday at the County Clash track meet, with Pitman, Oakdale and Turlock High finishing first, second and third, respectively.
Not even a car crash could keep Brian Dudley and Andrew Knapp, Denair tennis' number one and two singles players, from seeking retribution against league juggernauts Ripon Christian on Friday. The two Coyote players were involved in a head-on collision on their way to the match, but still managed to make it to the courts where they won their matches in the 7-2 effort over the Knights.
Pitman High thoroughly beat Merced High on the baseball diamond Monday afternoon in the Pride's second Central California Conference game of the season. Four days removed from beating Golden Valley High 8-0, Pitman again pitched a shutout as they handed Merced its third consecutive loss by a score of 10-0.
Things have changed in the Central California Conference this year and this week marked the beginning of a three-game series, starting with game one at Turlock High as the Bulldogs hosted the Atwater Falcons.
The Central California Conference and the Modesto Metro Conference gathered together for Saturday's Nor Cal Relay at Johansen High with Turlock and Pitman owning the day on the pool.
It was a down game for the Hilmar varsity baseball team on Saturday afternoon when they hosted Sonora High.
The Hilmar High (6-3-1) girls varsity soccer team is only two wins away from tying last year's win total and league hasn't even started.

Denair High came close to earning its first win of the season this week in a two-game showdown with Le Grand High on Wednesday and Friday, but late-inning slumps in both games instead led to a pair of defeats and extended the Coyote's record to 0-8.

Berlusconi's Income Plummeted 87 Percent in One Year Due to Mediaset Struggles
ROME – Billionaire media mogul Silvio Berlusconi, who will on Tuesday learn his punishment for charges of tax evasion and false accounting, saw his income fall by more than 87 percent over a one-year period, it was reported Monday.
From a legal and political perspective, Berlusconi's problems really started in 2011, when he was ousted as prime minister. After that, he faced charges for tax evasion and false accounting, wire taps, bribing a public official, abuse of power and paying an underage girl for sex.
Last year he was definitively convicted on the tax-evasion and false-accounting charges, resulting in his being stripped of his seat in Italy's Senate, and on Tuesday he will discover if he must serve a year of house arrest or perform 12 months of community service.
Now it has been revealed that Berlusconi's income also collapsed during the same period. In a rare insight into the billionaire's finances, La Repubblica and other media reported his income plummeted from €35.4 million ($46.1 million) in 2011 to "only" €4.5 million ($6.3 million) a year later. The figures for 2012 are the most recent figures available.
The culprit? Mostly the dividend level and stock price for Mediaset, the television and cinema giant he controls. The shares reached an all-time low of €1.16 ($1.61) in late 2012 before rebounding last year. They started strong in 2014, reaching a nearly three-year high of €4.18 ($5.81) last month but have lost steam in recent weeks, closing trading Monday at €3.88 ($5.39).
Mediaset is one of Europe's largest media conglomerates, with three national networks in Italy and one in Spain, the Medusa cinema production and distribution house and print media in several European countries.

... d consider a rockin' fun college town like Charlottesville, Chapel Hill,
Athens, GA, or Lawrence, KS. Where states have both a major university and a
major land grant university (Kansas, Iowa, Colorado, Montana, Washington, Utah)
the land grant school tends to be the more conservative of the two. But
Auburn's so conservative as far as big public schools go that James Dobson of

Visiting Calloway Gardens
Year 2, Day 121 Calloway Gardens. Unfortunately not the most beautiful time for us to be going to the gardens, but it was fun to see. They were having a balloon festival, so we got up bright and early to see that, but it wasn't that great and they tethered most of the balloons that were there, but we had seen some in the West (and rode in 2), so it wasn't that ...
