Again on the subject of Nurseries and Fuji Apples, What do you-a;; think of stark Bro's? Don't hold back now. They have a Super red Fuji tree. Don't know of the root stock? I know Avoid,m111 and m7.
Because Starks won't tell you what rootstocks you're getting when you buy from them. If "dwarf" or "semi-dwarf" is all you want to know, they're fine. But if you want to use or avoid a specific rootstock, it's a problem.
Several threads around here on this issue.
Stark Bros is also stingy about telling chill hours. I've seen some varieties of fruit trees being recommended for my 8B area with 800-1000 chill hours. No thanks.
As a new fruit tree guy I just bought three dwarf plums. Since then I realized I have no idea of the rootstock I got. They also screwed up the order. I paid for three dwarfs (larger caliper) but got regular. I had no problems with a refund though. Ymmv.
Chill hours sometimes is just a number thrown out there when they really don't know. look up Kuffle Creek and Dave Wilson Nursery on you tube and hear what they have to say, he is growing apples with a 800-1000 chill hour in Southern California with low chill hours and 113 temps.
The apple trees may get by on less chill hours in the southwest. The vigor is not the same though. They will not grow and produce at the same level as if they had proper chill.
I have witnessed this first hand. My family has property in Julian, CA where there is plenty of chill usually 1000+ hours. I have compared some apple varieties grown in Julian to the same ones grown in my backyard, San Diego, where I get 300 hours. In Julian the trees are much more vigorous, mature faster, and bear fruit much earlier.

Skill wise I get alternate between my q w e skills, and get ult whenever I can.
With q and e in priority and w last, since it uses a bit too much mana at the beginning.
Item wise I start with a vampire septre (or something boots) and then get my ninja tabi, then rageblade, then frozen mallet, then upgrade septre to bloodthirster if I'm doing well, otherwise I get atma's impaler.
Is there anything wrong with my build? Are there any situational items? ;$
I'd like to say 'rush wriggle's lantern'.
This has been a 'contribute to carries trying to farm items while being harassed' post.
Ignore your E. One level in it at max. You have surprisingly large burst with Q/W.
Depending on how bad I think the harasses in my lane will be, I either start off with cloth armor and health potions, or longsword with a health potion.
I've been experimenting with completely ditching dodge runes on Jax, and I've gotten a decent amount of procs anyway. I will regularly get the procs I need by minions hitting me, and have been able to do better with an ASPD/Move quints page. I find that move quints are invaluable for just *keeping up* with someone so you don't lose your stacks in case they decide to you know, remove themselves. Counterstrike only lasts for a second. Red helps. You can also build a frozen mallet.
Wriggle's Lantern:
+30 Armor
+14% Lifesteal
Unique Passive:20% chance on attack to deal 500 damage to a minion.
Unique Passive: 3 Minute normal ward.
This gives +69 HP to Jax, and a better way to farm/get buffs very quickly, especially with his aspd ulti/guinsoo's.
Next up is Ninja Tabi and Guinsoo's rageblade.
Guinsoo's gives you some of the best HP/Attack/AP damage in the game, as well as another attackspeed ramper. It's a very good item on jax not just because of the attackspeed, but for the values it offers. With full stacks, it gives you 93 AP, 35 AD, and 32% Aspd.
That's 186+105=291 HP, from an item that already offers incredible values.
You can get a Youmuu's ghostblade if you feel problems with building up your stacks, but that gives you only 90 HP off of it. It also gives you very good CDR/Arpen, and the active removes a lot of the 'ramping up' problems. I prefer to segue directly into my gunblade if I'm not really badly being focused in fights.
Hextech gunblade solves a majority of Jax's problems.
He's still rather squishy, he needs a decent slow (and frozen mallet works fairly well at this) and he could use some more burst/dps. (Frozen mallet doesn't do that.)
Gunblade gives you this HP:
Expensive? Yes. Are you farming like a beast with that wriggles? Yes. Good.
Do you now have enough lifesteal to regularly 2v1 people with cleanse/exhaust? Yes. Do you have enough damage to hit people and make them feel PAIN? Yes.
After this, any other items are fairly luxury. You can get a banshee's, that's usually a very good choice. Atma's is as well, but remember to build to counter their most prominent dps.
The latern is good? Are you sure?
I was thinking getting a septre to farm at the begining, then rushing tabi and rageblade, then getting the gunblade and bloodthirster.
Is that viable? I'm no good at placing wards :$
Also is cleanse/teleport a good combo for Jax?
Cleanse. You need cleanse to keep your stacks.
Your other spell is up to you, although I take Exhaust, because I can use all the slows I can get, plus it prevents them from hurting me if they're autoattackers/more fed than I am for a little bit.
Lantern is very good, plus realize that you can *leap* to your ward, providing a good way to get out of a bad situation without flash, or to get over dragon wall if you need to take dragon stealthily. Or place it outside so you can run easily.
Thank you for all your insight (:
If I have a good team I'd consider farming wiggles asap.
I'm still fairly new at last hitting so my farming probably sucks......
anyways is Jax viable in higher tier matches? I kind of want to focus on 1 or 2 carries
Problem with Jax is he reacts badly to CCs. See though, with wriggles, you don't have to worry as much about lasthitting, you can get off lasthits with procs.
I don't know if he's viable in higher tier matches, I've been rather kept down in Elo by people who like to feed a lot/don't know what they're doing, sadly. He has been perfectly viable in the matches I've had with him, though. Mostly because people don't know how to focus, but even in situations where they've focused me, there's another carry who manages to deal damage to them instead.
Dorans ring
> Tabi
> Guinsoo (you can now jungle like a beast)
> sheen
> Hextech revolver (look at the stats...it is GODLIKE on jax...you leech a LOT...)
Usually now I will get some defense item, or if I am doing very well with a good team I will finish with Rylais or a Trinity force.
You can have some mean survivability with this build, and you will get a TON of multi kills.
You need some sort of regen method in order to jungle effectively, which is why I take wriggles, it lets me sustain myself in and out of the lane. (As well as take dragon.)

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
13 May 2010 19:39 GMT
The official said one of the men had been arrested because he had overstayed his visa.
A second man had already been awaiting a ruling from an immigration court hearing on whether he would be removed from the US."We can confirm that several search warrants have been executed in the northeast in connection with the Times Square bombing investigation," Gail Marcinkiewicz, an FBI spokeswoman, told the AFP news agency.'No immediate threat'
Faisal Shazhad, a Pakistani-born US citizen, has already been charged with terrorism in connection with the botched May 1 attack, after he allegedly parked a car laden with a home-made bomb in New York's Times Square.
Authorities said Shahzad, 30, a former financial analyst who lived in Connecticut prior to the bombing attempt, has been co-operating with federal officials.
Dean Boyd, a justice department spokesman, said the searches were the result of evidence collected during a 13-day investigation.Shahzad faces five terrorism-related charges. But he has still not appeared in court or been seen in public since his arrest on May 3 when he was hauled off a flight to Dubai.
In its statement on the latest arrests, the FBI said it could "provide no further details as the investigation is ongoing".
But it added: "This search is the product of evidence that has been gathered in the investigation subsequent to the attempted Times Square bombing and [does] not relate to any known immediate threat to the public or active plot against the United States."The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the failed attempt to detonate a car bomb in the heart of New York City. If this claim is confirmed to be true, the attempt would be the group's first act in the United States.

My Aha moment - cleaning utensils
dorothy4981September 17, 2013
After years of trying all sorts of stainless steel and sterling products to clean and shine utensils, I found this trick...
Line a cake pan with aluminum foil, boil enough water to fill 3/4 of pan, pour boiling water into lined cake pan and add 2-3 tablespoons of baking soda. Water will fizz so if you can place cake pan in sink before you add boiling water and baking soda. Add silver or stainless steel and let sit for approximately 10 minutes. You will note a rotten egg scent for a minute or so after you add utensils. Rinse well and dry.
Results - perfect looking utensils!

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
The rape of men and young boys is a societal taboo that is practiced in prison and wartime. Intended to demoralize and break down the victim, males are afraid to come forward with their stories and suffer untold traumatic psychological problems afterwards. Male rape is practiced widely during wartime, when social structures have collapsed, leaving many defenseless.

Keywords: Male rape, Uganda, psychological problems
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Male rape is utilized to destroy lives and tearing communities apart than guns alone.
Sexual abuse against men can take the form of anal and oral rape, genital torture, castration, gang rape, sexual slavery and the forced rape of others.
Starvation takes no vacation --
Feeling ashamed, fearing ostracism, many victims dare not challenge powerful myths about male rape in their cultures, experts say.
A common belief - in many African villages, is that a man who is raped becomes a woman. Another myth perpetrated is that gay men are the victims of rape, and that the only form of sexual violence against men is anal rape.
"The assumptions that underline those myths serve to silence those victims," Chris Dolan, the director of Refugee Law Project says. His organization has produced the study with funding from British charities Plan UK and War Child.
Dolan's briefing paper was presented to academics, policy specialists from humanitarian groups and other experts for discussion in the hopes that it will help provoke a debate on the problem at a high-level summit on ending sexual violence in conflict in London next month.
Sexual violence against men was reported in 25 countries affected by conflict between the years of 1998 and 2008, according to Refugee Law Project.
Stories from the nations of Libya, Syria, Democratic Republic of Congo and Central African Republic have come forth from witnesses. They have reported seeing male victims in sectarian battles killed and their genitals cut off.
"There is growing evidence but it tends to be anecdotal. What is increasingly clear is that the absence of evidence doesn't mean that there's an absence of incidents," Dolan said.
In a study conducted by the Refugee Law Project and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. researchers screened 447 male refugees, aged 18 and older in a refugee camp in western Uganda last year. It was discovered that 13 percent of them had experienced sexual violence in the previous year alone, and that more than one in three had suffered some form of sexual violence in their lifetimes.

The Harrison twins and Daxter Miles have history
By Drew Franklin on ©March 26th, 2015 @ 5:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | Leave a response
From Kevin Richardson at the Baltimore Sun, the Harrison twins and West Virginia's Daxter Miles have a little history on the basketball court. Long before Miles was running his mouth in Cleveland before tonight's Sweet 16, he met the twins in a 2012 AAU game in Baltimore. Things got a little a chippy back then, and according to Richardson, the players had to be separated a few times.
You can see video of the game and the Harrison-Miles rivalry here.
Round 2 tips off later tonight.

Yesterday it was Daxter Miles' guarantee that West Virginia would upset Kentucky tonight in the Sweet 16, and today it's fellow Mountaineer freshman Jevon Carter talking trash to the Harrison twins on Twitter.
Carter tweeted, "Harrison twins really playing Nintendo? I knew them boys were cheap"
The tweet has since been deleted, but nothing dies on the internet:
He also retweeted this photo from a fan:
Carter is 2-for-14 from the field in the NCAA Tournament.
Please shut up. It's for your own good.
This is Jevon Carter playing defense against Maryland last weekend:
I wonder if he will wear his skates again tonight.
Slice with the overhead heave from halfcourt

Slice knocked down the halfcourt shot to close today's shootaround with a two-handed overhead toss off the glass. (We won't call him out for standing in front of the line.)
Kentucky is undefeated this season when a player or coach hits a halfcourt shot during shootaround. That's a fact. Look it up.
Slice! The good omens continue.

We're a little under seven hours away (ugh) from tipoff in Quaker Oats/Quicken Loans Arena and blue is slowly making its way into the city of Cleveland. I've been cooped up in my hotel room all day, but I did do a lap around the mall and casino a little earlier and saw plenty of blue moving into the hotels. However, I also saw plenty of Mountaineer blue and gold so it may not be the lopsided crowds we saw in Nashville and Louisville the past two weekends. The UK fans here in Cleveland need to bring the noise tonight.
— Seth Greenberg, one of the good guys in the media, made a good point today about the new Calipari-to-the-NBA rumors swirling around everywhere. Greenberg believes these "sources" are planting the rumors to affect recruiting at Kentucky. With several elite prospects out there and UK still looking to land three or four of them, the thought of Cal bolting this summer could sway some decisions. Bold strategy by, oh, let's say Bill Self. (I have no idea if it's Bill Self, or if it's true. Good point by Greenberg, though.)
— Shane Battier picked West Virginia to win tonight. In related news, someone pays Shane Battier money to talk about college basketball.
— UK still sitting at -13 out in Las Vegas. Give me the Cats to cover, please. I think all of this new media-driven hype around the Mountaineers is only setting this game up for a blowout. Daxter Miles didn't do his team any favors yesterday, either. Cats win big tonight.
— Brad Paisley is talking trash on Twitter. (And has a deal with Four Roses bourbon, apparently.) Paisley tweeted: "Dear Kentucky, I love you, your bluegrass & your people, & tonight we toast @4RosesBourbon to your 36-1 season."
He will soon drink his pain away a little at a time. But he'll never get drunk enough to get tonight's game off his mind.
— Our friends at Thoroughbred in Lexington are ready for the game!
I love Thoroughbred.
— Matt just wrapped up his appearance on ESPN's Outside The Lines. We hope to have video on the site soon so check back a little later if you missed the show.
— Ryan Lemond and I will be on the air tonight at 7:00 pm for the KSR pregame show. Tune in and give us a call as we broadcast live from the lobby of The Renaissance. Matt Jones and Oscar Combs will take over at 8:00 pm for the official IMG pregame show in the arena.
— I'll leave you with this reader submission from #TeamWes:
David Wesley "Wes" Freeland is a man of many passions and talents. On any given day, you can find him cheering on the Kentucky Wildcats, training for a marathon, watching the Thoroughbreds race, or shopping for a new pair of running shoes. His athleticism is far better than most his age and his spirit and determination is admired by all who know him.
He is a husband, father, son, brother, friend and FIGHTER. Wes has run many marathons in his lifetime, but he was not at all prepared nor did he train for what would prove to be the most difficult marathon of all – CANCER.
In July 2014, Wes was diagnosed with Grade IV Glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. For the past 8 months he has experienced many ups and downs, but very little has deterred his determination to beat this deadly disease. At the young age of 36, Wes tied on his best pair of running shoes and took off on a journey he thought he'd never have to run.
His love for Kentucky basketball and running started at a very young age. Wes started running track and cross country at Elizabethtown High School in the 7th grade. He was State AA 800 meter champion in 1994 through 1996, and was a member of the State AA champion 3200 meter relay team in 1994 and 1995, setting a record in '95.
After high school, Wes attended the University of Kentucky where he was a member of the UK Cross Country and Track Team from 1996 through 1999. His athleticism earned him letters his sophomore, junior and senior years. He was also a member of the K Club, before graduating in 2001.
Most recently, Wes learned that his cancer was showing signs of progression. While the original tumor has remained unchanged since surgery, some other unwelcome lesions have appeared. As a result, Wes started a new chemotherapy regimen and remains determined as ever to keep fighting.
Although fatigued, he is always ready to cheer on the CATS. Whether he's watching the game from home or a hospital bed, one thing remains certain, he will be wearing blue and white. While Wes is cheering for the Cats path to perfection, his family and friends are cheering for him. Although very different situations, one could say Wes and the UK basketball players have something in common, DETERMINATION.
The New York Times profiled John Robic and you should read it
By Drew Franklin on ©March 26th, 2015 @ 2:30pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 4 Responses
Marc Tracy of The New York Times wrote an excellent profile of UK assistant John Robic and it was released to the world yesterday. Tracy, who also wrote the Dominique Hawkins piece for The Times, explains the successful dynamic between Coach Robic and his longtime boss, John Calipari. The two have been together for 17 seasons; they're exact opposites; and it's a perfect match.
Tracy writes, "Calipari is extroverted and boisterous; Robic is introverted and dry. Calipari's expressions are dynamic; Robic has a steady gaze. Calipari has carefully slicked-back black hair; Robic has a mop of blond and gray."
"The division of labor is partly strategic. If Calipari had tried to do it all, he might not have led Kentucky to three of the past four Final Fours or to a 36-0 record this season entering the N.C.A.A. tournament's round of 16."
It's something we've witnessed since the two landed in Lexington in 2009. We're big fans of Robic, as you know, and he doesn't get nearly enough credit for the work he does behind the scenes, while Cal works the spotlight.
Give Tracy's work a read — if for nothing else, do it because this photo of Robes is incredible.
That's a D-III All-American handling the rock right there.
Photobombing: West Virginia University

Welcome, future Mountaineer, to West Virginia University! Here all your dreams of higher learning come true, you'll experience top-rated professorial guidance and create long and lasting friendships with the very people you'll inevitably rely upon to pry your foot out of a sprung bear trap later in life. We all need those people and you'll find them — and a lasting education — at West Virginia University! Let's see all the great things WVU has to offer!
Classroom time is important, and at WVU you'll find open, accessible instructors in every class setting. Also, you'll be pleased to know that the average wait time as your professors seek to figure out the overhead projector has been cut, after comprehensive training, from twenty minutes in 2013 to only fifteen minutes in 2014!
Visit our library to find literally tens of books and feel free to enjoy an apple, bagel or coffee as you study diligently for your next quiz. Whatever your major, we promise you will find a minimum of two books or three comprehensive brochures on the subject. Here we find Susan, who has been working to pass Pre-Calculus for the last eighteen years. You'll get it this year, Susan!
"Siri, what is the weather today?" Ha, ha! Just kidding. No one knows what this machine does. But it just goes to show the inventiveness of a Mountaineer imagination knows no boundaries! Who knows what you'll invent at WVU? The sky's the limit! (Please note that mountains are closer to the sky than many other geographical areas, minimizing limits.)
Here are two friendly representatives from the WVU Creative Role-Players Club. Due to more restrictive regulations placed upon student activity groups in 2014-15, there is a significantly less chance of them murdering you and wearing a suit made of your skin as their next creative role-play. Sign up today!
The West Virginia University Beard Club boasts 700 members and has been nationally recognized by the…hey, wait a minute — Janice, when did you shave your beard? These students live in Beard Hall, where it's always a party and no shower drains are operational at any time. To qualify for beard hall please include a picture of your beard with your student application.
West Virginia University is all about tradition — timeless, annual events like 'Beat Martin Sheen at Cornhole." Last year he defeated over six-hundred teams and he didn't even have a partner. His elbow has been acting up so this might be the year you'll take him down! Good luck!

I just watched Matt run out the KSR hotel room door in one of his finest suits to meet up with some of his favorite ESPN personalities, in the snow, for a taping of Outside The Lines. The mouth of this whole KSR operation is scheduled to chat with Andy Katz, Seth Greenberg and Ian O'Connor about John Calipari at approximately 2:30 pm.
So tune in to OTL on ESPN to see your boy on the big stage here in about an hour. We'll have video on the site a little later for those of you who can't make it to a television in time.
Dakari Johnson and Devin Williams go way back

There are all sorts of storylines in this game, but one you may not have heard is Dakari Johnson and West Virginia's Devin Williams played together in high school. Dakari and Devin shared the front court at Montverde Academy in Florida, and tonight, they'll face off in the Sweet 16.
While most of his teammates were talking trash, Williams is just ready to reunite with an old friend. "I can't wait to see my brother," he told TJ Beisner yesterday.
Hopefully Dakari is giving his teammates a thorough scouting report on Williams, who may be West Virginia's x-factor. Williams is on a tear lately, averaging 18.3 points and 9.8 rebounds over the last four games. At 6'9″, 255 lbs., he's shorter than UK's bigs but a solid presence, and coincidentally, Dakari might be the best option the Cats have to contain him.
Let's save the warm and fuzzy feelings for after the game, boys.
Reason 1,302,199 I love Kentucky fans

Yesterday, Willie Cauley-Stein told Jerry Tipton that if UK were an animal, they'd be a raccoon because raccoons are feisty and "come at you" when cornered.
The comment struck a chord with UK fan Mandy Schum, who found a sick raccoon on her doorstep yesterday. Mandy wrote KSR to ask for advice and her husband called into the show this morning, telling the guys that they felt obligated to care for the raccoon after Willie's comment yesterday. After Matt and Ryan told her leaving the raccoon alone to die would definitely be a bad omen, Mandy put out some water and food for the sick animal:

After "Willie" got some food and water, the Schums carefully got him into a box and took him to the woods to roam free:

Good on ya, Schums. "Willie" and Willie appreciate the kindness.
Willie says his difficult freshman year made him stronger

Yesterday, CBS Sports' Len Elmore made the rounds, asking various players for their thoughts on the freshmen ineligibility rule, which a few conferences are discussing bringing back. As you might expect, Kentucky's players were not fans of it.
"Well, it's a little late for us now, but if I couldn't play for this year, I would probably be really upset because this is a special team and we probably won't play on a team like this ever again," Tyler Ulis said.
Devin Booker agreed. "I'm glad they got away from that. Kind of like Tyler said, I would be disappointed if we couldn't play but I've heard the rumors they're talking about, and I'm glad I'm past my freshman year."
As it often does, the question provoked a long and thoughtful response from Willie Cauley-Stein, who reflected on his difficult freshman year, in which the Cats went 21-12 and lost in the first round of the NIT.
"I think the freshman year is a year for experience," Willie said. "Coming here, you're thrown to the hounds. You're out there with them. There's no 'ok, we're going to play you a little bit here and there.' Nah, you're there. Full, you're starting, you're playing with guys you just met and all of you are young, so you're all in together. Honestly, it's like being thrown into the army. The way you have to approach it is like that because you're all fresh, you're all young, and you're all brand new, and then you've got maybe two guys who's been through it."
Willie said that this year's freshman class has no idea what it's like to experience the dark side of being a Kentucky basketball player.
"The freshmen that came in this year, they have the chance to do something crazy. Be undefeated. When I was a freshman, we were considered one of the worst teams to come through Kentucky," Willie said. "They don't know. They haven't been through the worst part. They've never lost a game, so they don't know what it's like to lose a game here. That's crazy to even think about. 'You haven't lost a game in college here.' You don't know how crazy your fans really are. If you lost most multiple games in a row like me and Alex lost our freshman year, people start talking, people start getting after you. 'Why are you playing so bad?' And they have no idea what you're going through? It's good. I'm glad that they don't have to go through that. But at the end of the day, it makes you stronger, going through that."
I guess something good did come out of the NIT after all.

West Virginia's players talked all sorts of trash yesterday, and this morning, their video crew released a hype video that included shots at "experts" Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless, and Charles Barkley and "famous fans" Ashley Judd and Drake:

Ashley Judd says she woke up thinking about Trey Lyles

Ashley Judd has been everywhere the past few weeks, and this morning, she posted a video on Facebook telling her followers that when she woke up this morning, she was thinking about Trey Lyles:
I woke up with this on my mind: Sweet 16! Here are my eyes just opened I am supposed to be trading spiritual texts and praying and meditating it's all so exciting Kentucky is matching up against the Good Ole Mountaineers of Dear West Virginia thoughts.

Say what you will about Ashley, but there's no denying she's a legit fan. And she's right about Trey.

"I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama"
As if I needed any more evidence to bolster today's column about the Obama junior lobbyist campaign in America's schools, here's another item fresh from the headlines in Utah:
A school principal has apologized for showing a video at an assembly that a politically conservative group leader is calling "radical, leftist propaganda."
Children at Eagle Bay Elementary School in Farmington were shown a short video called "I pledge" on Aug. 28. The video opens with an image of President Barack Obama and part of a speech in which he says, "Let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other." The video then features celebrities making pledges about how they will help the president and the world — and that's where some say the problem lies…
… Gayle Ruzicka, president of conservative Utah Eagle Forum, said the video was blatantly political. She said other offensive pledges included, "I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama," "I pledge allegiance to the funk, to the united funk of funkadelica," and pledges to not use plastic grocery bags and not flush the toilet after urinating.
"It's very inappropriate to show a radical, leftist propaganda piece that political to children," Ruzicka said. "If parents want their children to learn about those things and do them in the home, wonderful, fine, but it's not the place of the school to show a one-sided propaganda piece to children without parents knowing about it."
Cieslewicz said such values should be decided in the home, not at school.
Coming to a classroom assembly near you…

Is the Espionage Act Outdated?
By editor
Originally published on Sat May 25, 2013 4:39 pm
Weekends on All Things Considered host Jacki Lyden speaks with Benjamin Wittes of the Brookings Institution about the Espionage Act. This Word War I-era legislation has been used more frequently in recent times to prosecute government employees who leak information to the press, but the limits set by the act are poorly defined for our modern age.

Zebra mussels confirmed in Lake Lida in Otter Tail County
Zebra mussels have been confirmed in Lake Lida, a popular Otter Tail County lake that is home to Maplewood State Park, according to a news release issued recently by the Pelican River Watershed District.
A landowner recently discovered adult zebra mussels in the lake and brought them to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for identification.
The fact they were adult zebra mussels says they have likely been in Lake Lida for some time.

Mio blinked looking at Liz for a moment before looking at the floor, contemplating her options, though the choice was pretty clear for Mio as she stared back into Liz's eyes,
"I'm staying with you!" she said clenching her fists not taking no for an answer from Liz.
Liz smiled warmly "Thank you" she said glad to have Mio with her. Mio gave a big grin "I guess I should start calling you Mistress now huh?" she asked playfully, Liz blinked somewhat surprised by the comment before smiling back petting Mio warmly.
"I guess that makes you my first pet" she said to Mio as Mio gave a slight blush and purred softly.
Not 100% happy with how this one turned out but oh well, Part 4 and 5 was going to be one bigger part but felt that it worked better if I split them up :3c
However there was a problem, the Neko walking behind her. Liz stopped on a hill as she turned to look at Mio...
Sorry it was a while before this part came out but hopefully part 5 will come real soon :3
