Soybean Checkoff Research Database Executive Summary: Soybean growers are investing in soybean research projects targeted at both improving production technologies and expanding soybean use. This report provides a listing of the various production research projects; soybean composition studies; utilization projects; and technology transfer activities that are funded in part by the soybean checkoff. On October 1, 2008 soybean growers were funding 559 projects with a total investment of $36.9 million. Project Objective: To develop a listing of soybean research projects being funded by the state soybean checkoff boards, regional research programs and the United Soybean Board. Methods: The contractor contacted state executives to obtain information on the research project being funded by the state checkoff board. The first of October was selected as a uniform date for comparing funding levels to past years. This report summarizes the information supplied by the state executives and the United Soybean Board's research managers. Report Findings: Soybean growers, through their checkoff, are investing in a balanced program to improve soybean yields, composition and expand market opportunities. On October 1, 2008, soybean checkoff boards were funding 559 projects with a total investment of about $36.9 million. Two tables showing the distribution of funding and funding by checkoff organization follows this executive summary report. The values cited in the tables should be viewed with some caution; the values are a "snap-shot" of values that represent projects underway on October 1st. Some of these values could be slightly higher for the entire year since Boards could have funded a few projects after the October 1 st common date and these values would not be included in these numbers. There are also problems with the distribution of the funding since many projects have multi-purpose objectives; meaning they could be easily allocated to more than one research area. Take for example a project to test a fungicide- insecticide-herbicide tank mix for controlling fungal diseases, insects and weeds. The contractor used their best judgment on allocating these projects. Allocation of projects is improved by using the "searchable" database on the new checkoff-funded soybean research Website. The projects are searchable by 1 using about 200 key words. This allows for a single project to have several key words that describes the project's objectives. Report Highlights: The first two charts provide information on the distribution of soybean checkoff research funding. The checkoff program funds a balanced research program; balanced between soybean production projects and utilization projects; balanced between projects with objectives to increase soybean yields and protect yields; and balanced between traditional soybean breeding/variety evaluation programs and new advanced molecular research studies. The balance of research efforts provides the best opportunity to achieve the program's goals of improving soybean profitability. About seventy cents of each checkoff dollar funds research to improve soybean yields and production efficiencies. The remaining thirty cents will be directed toward expanding soybean use and improving soybean composition. The funding balance between production and utilization projects, applied studies and basic research, and projects seeking new cutting-edge information and protecting past gains, are a positive feature of the soybean checkoff research program. The checkoff is investing in soybean production that directly impacts soybean management decisions. These studies involve both field plot experiments and on-farm research demonstrations. The goal of these studies is to demonstrate good management practices that improve soybean yields and profits. State extension specialists and crop advisors to soybean growers use the results of the production research projects in their workshop presentations, bulletins, fact sheets, Websites and in their contacts with individual soybean growers. 2 The largest checkoff funding investment is for soybean stress projects. These projects are directed at reducing yield losses due to diseases, nematodes, insects, weeds and environmental stresses. Major efforts are underway to find genes responsible for resistance to various stresses that reduce soybean yields. Advances are being made to develop germplasm and varieties that better cope with both biotic and abiotic stresses. Funding for Asian soybean rust and soybean nematode research totaled forty percent of the total investment in stress research. This was followed by insect studies (15%), sudden death syndrome (11%), weed control studies (7.5%), general disease research (7.5%) and the other stresses were less than five percent each. This balance represents current concerns of soybean growers. 3 The funding allocated to diseases, nematodes and insects would have been even greater if the investment in evaluating germplasm sources for resistance to soybean diseases and pests, screening germplasm lines and developing elite soybean germplasm lines and varieties would have been included. A significant percent of the total funding for soybean germplasm and variety development is used to screen commercial soybean varieties and germplasm lines for resistance to plant stresses. Developing more pest resistance soybean varieties; improving management recommendations to minimize pest problems; supporting state extension's on- farm research studies, field plot demonstrations and communication efforts; and creating a more complete understanding of the pest threat are providing soybean growers information to reduce soybean yield losses to diseases, nematodes, insects and weeds. The relatively large percentage of checkoff funds for plant stress research reflects the various Boards' priorities and the importance of soybean diseases/pests to soybean profits. 4 About a fifth of the checkoff investment is being invested in studies to improve soybean utilization. These studies involve expanding industrial use applications, improving feed uses of soybean meal and increasing food use applications of soy protein and oil. Listed below are some of the specialized uses being investigated: Adhesives Inks Biodiesel Hydrogels Coatings Lubricants Concrete Additives Plastic/Polymers Expanded Meal Uses Polyols Fibers Soy Food Ingredients Foams Specialty Chemicals Feed Uses of Glycerol Surfactants Industrial Uses of Glycerol Past checkoff funding has created several new uses of soybeans that are now being marketed. Researchers are aggressively investigating additional uses of soybean oil in resins, lubricants, fuels, specialty chemicals and a wide number of other environmental friendly "green" use applications. Many of the checkoff- funded projects are co-funded by industry, thus leveraging the checkoff investment and providing new access to the market place. Improving the composition of soybeans to be more competitive in domestic and foreign markets continues to be a United Soybean Board priority. About eight percent of the total checkoff investment is being used to improve soybean's protein and oil content. These projects have a simple goal of modifying soybean's composition to better meet the soybean user's needs. Several state boards are also providing funds to analyze the soybean varieties produced in their state in efforts to better inform farmers of the choices they have in selecting varieties to plant. In the next chart funding allocation for the current fiscal year is compared to the previous four years. Funding levels and allocations are fairly consistent between years. Looking closely at the funding levels, it would appear that research expenditures of soybean production research and utilization research were significantly increased over the previous year. The following chart also provides additional insight into soybean board priorities. As can be seen, the relative funding priority has not changed much over the past five years, however there are exceptions, soybean production research projects, soybean breeding and genomics and soybean utilization research received significantly more funding during the 2008/09 fiscal year compared to previous years. This again reflects grower leader priorities and the higher level of checkoff funding (Table 1) seen in the current fiscal year. Most of these funding increases are due to an increase in the number of projects being funded. 5 Tech-transfer, or Extension research and communication activities, seem relatively low compared to other activities. This is somewhat a reflection of the project sort; these amounts would be much higher if communication efforts that are a part of the soybean diseases and pests, on-farm demonstration activities and funding for technical reporting of results would have been included. Many researchers actively inform soybean growers of their project's progress as part of the research effort and without requiring special funding. Nearly $37 million dollars of soybean checkoff funds are being invested in soybean research this year. This represents a significant share of the total public dollars spent on soybean research in this country. Soybean growers should be proud that checkoff funding is highly leveraged with federal and state funding for soybean research. Often overlooked is the fact that many researchers use checkoff funds to develop the background data needed to write competitive proposals for large federal grants. These grants can result in some major research efforts, such as the genetic mapping of the soybean genome, which resulted from a checkoff-funded project. It is often the checkoff board that provides the seed monies to initiate the 6 studies that are later heavily funded with federal funds. This demonstrates the importance of checkoff boards in setting priorities and making things happen. Another over looked benefit of the soybean checkoff is the over 400 researchers involved in soybean checkoff-funded research projects. The checkoff funding is critical in helping to advance professional careers with hopes that many of these researchers will continue to contribute to the future of soybeans. A listing of the researchers involved in checkoff research is at the end of this report. The Soybean Checkoff-funded Database: It is hoped that this database will serve the soybean grower, research administrator and those interested in learning more about the soybean research programs that are being funded by the Soybean Checkoff. It is anticipated that future databases can be expanded to include results of checkoff research projects. This would allow soybean growers a readily available resource for learning quickly about the results of soybean research projects being funded by the Soybean Checkoff. In Summary: Soybean growers are investing in a balanced research program that will have a major impact on the future of soybeans. The research projects are highly leveraged with funding from many other sources, which means the checkoff funds are helping to set the research agenda and assuring the projects underway are addressing soybean grower concerns. The soybean checkoff is an investment in the future of the soybean crop with over four hundred researchers involved in checkoff-funded projects. Soybean growers should be proud that the checkoff program is investing in projects that will improve soybean production efficiencies, expand uses and improve soybean composition, all designed to improve the profitability of the soybean crop. Acknowledgements: A large part of the success of this report goes to the State Executives and the United Soybean Board's Management Team for supplying information on the various research projects that are funded by the various soybean checkoff boards. Without their help this report would not have been possible. 7

'w00t' Named 2007 Word of the Year 244
from the still-waiting-for-slashdotted-as-a-verb dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
A friend of mine's license plate is w00t. And he's a geek but by no means a cripplingly stunted one. Then again, the fact that the license plate was available says loads about just how important this word is to geek culture...not very.
re: Dictionaries jumping the shark...no kidding. Then again, dictionaries aren't supposed to be up to date so much as a conservative normalizing force in language usage. IIRC, the first dictionaries were intended to regularize spelling variations, more so than be comprehensive catalogues of words in usage.
It's hard to see it [w00t] in any context but geek culture.
The last time? I haven't seen it used in a sentence for the first time. (Mentioning it by reference doesn't count.)
If someone can already search, how likely are they to search for "google"?
I admit. I typed "Yahoo" into Google before. =P
2010: asstunnel
As for worst word/phrase of 2007, "bricked" and "SKU" rank high, but nothing inspires the urge to strangle like "__? Not so much."
It's a perfectly cromulent word.
I make that to be 4 words, assuming a word length of 32 bits.
Of uncertain origin; theories include:
The Etymology according to the wiktionary.
W00t! Never heard of that one before. I'll have to check it out.
Of the possible etymologies, the one I encountered on the WoW forums was the first one:
an acronym from "we own the other team";
a leetspeak mutation of whoo, what or root;
makes sense too.
I use it due to my own frustration over the perversion of the once honorable term "hacker". If you can't beat them, join them.

Um... so this word was selected by a "vast majority" of the "thousands" that participated in selecting the Word of the Year.Thousands of you took part in the search for Merriam-Webster's Word of the Year for 2007, and the vast majority of you chose a small word that packs a pretty big punch. The word you've selected
The story of woot, as we know it, is simple. There were two similar songs on the charts that year. In April "Whoot There It Is" by 95 South (Ichiban Records) was the number seven best-selling song in Central Florida, according, to the Orlando Sentinel. "Whoomp! (There It Is)," by Tag Team (Life Records) out of Atlanta showed up at number 15 on Billboard's R&B singles 27 May 1993 and stayed for 45 weeks on the Billboard top 1

I'm going to be in Youngstown for 6 days, starting next Tuesday. I will only have carry-on luggage (so I can't buy yeast to take home), but I would love to pick up a few odds and ends like 5# of crystal malt.
I know there is a brewstore in Struthers, OH. I believe there is a large one in Akron? I thought I'd go to Akron, to go to a brewpub (any advice on where?), and to a LHBS if one is close by.
Otherwise, a day trip to Pittsburgh or Cleveland would be fun, too. I'll be hanging out with my dad. He'd probably be up for a small day trip.
The Grape and Granary has gotten some good pub from people I know that have used them. I have no experience personally though.http://www.thegrape.net/index.htm.
If in Akron I would definitely visit Grape and Granary. Great selection and very knowledgeable staff. Don't know of any brewpubs to visit though. I'll have to ask my father-in-law if he knows of any since he lives up there.
I had to look it up to remember where it was at but we've also gone to Leeners in Northfield.
From my experiences, I would say Grape and Granary is the best HB store in Cleveland/Akron. If youre looking to make a day trip though, including BrewPub and LHBS, you have great options in Cleveland. Fatheads Brewing Co, Beer Engine, Brew Kettle & Great Lakes Brewing Co will give you great beer and great food and depending on which you chose you will drive past either Leeners in Northfield or JW Dover in Westlake. Both should have what you're looking for.
Thirsty Dog in Akron, for a Brewpub. Never been there, but the drafts I've had in PGH from there are tasty. Grape and Granary in Akron is really good for supplies. South Hills Brewing for a PGH brew shop. There's a brew shop in Kent too...can't remember the name, but you'd think they would be pretty good since it's Kent...the home of LD Carlson.
I live in Cleveland and travel to Akron/Kent frequently.
Homebrew stores: Grape and Granary in Akron, JwDover in Westlake. Those are the two best around. I'd say they are about equal but I go to JwDover because it's closer and I really like the beer the make in their brewery that's just behind the storefront.
Places to drink in Akron: Hoppin' Frog, Thirsty Dog. Both are great.
Cleveland: Gotta go to Great Lakes Brewing Company, a new place right next to GLBC just opened up called Market Gardens, then there is Happy Dog.
Just a few I could think of right off the top of my head.
The place in Kent is called Abruzzo's. I've never been there, but my neighbor goes there for his wine making supplies. I call the Grape & Granary my LHBS, and would suggest stopping in there. Its only about 10 minutes from work. Although not a big store square footage wise, they have everything you could need I think. They have a nice looking wine tasting room in the front, but I've never been in there.
Everyone else has already named all the places I could think of. Akron has Thirsty Dog and Hoppin Frog. Cleveland has Great Lakes Brewery and all the other places named. There is a nice marketplace across the street from GLB, called the Westside Market. I think they are only open certain days, but it is a neat place to walk around and see.
Another vote for Grape and Granary. Good amount of stuff there.
As others have mentioned... Great Lakes Brewing has some excellent beers and free tours of the brewery if you sign up on their website before going. The tour is only about an hour and includes a 'sampling'... bring quarters! I was just there last week enjoying their Nosferatu and Big Black Smoke. Delicious!
FatHeads is great too, and you can check their current beer menu before going. Also, they have sandwiches as big as your head.
Grape and Granary in Akron
Abruzzo's in Kent (my LHBS, they are pretty small but can have whatever you want within 2 days, good group of guys)
Thirsty Dog (Akron Brewpub)
The Brew Kettle (Brewpub and Brew on Premise, a huge selection of stuff on draft and some good food as well)
And if you find yourself in the sticks East of Akron (Atwater/Randolph) you and yours are more than welcome to stop by for a homebrew.

The winter 2015 print edition is in stores now. Special report on the persistence of segregation in local public schools. Plus: 24-page insert commemorating the now shuttered weekly San Francisco Bay Guardian, produced by the newspaper's former staff.

On San Francisco's policy menu: making Happy Meals healthy, too
A SpongeBob figurine may soon lead to the disappearance of trinkets from fast food meals.
San Francisco Supervisor Eric Mar recently recounted a story about finding a drawerful of happy meal toys like Sponge Bob in his daughter's toy drawer. He was horrified to discover how many toys she had collected — and the corresponding number of Happy Meals she would have eaten to get those toys.
So earlier this week Mar introduced legislation at a supervisors' board meeting to ban toys from kids' meals unless the meal is healthy.
"The legislation will set nutritional standards for restaurant food accompanied by toys or other youth incentives," Mar said. The "Healthy Meal Incentive" legislation aims to create better eating habits to fight childhood obesity.
The law will require all meals with toys to include fruits and vegetables. Also, the entire meal must be less than 600 calories, or 200 calories for a single item. Beverages that come with meals must not contain an excessive amount of fat or sugar.
Mar said that according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity in children ages 6 to 11 has quadrupled since the Happy Meal was created in 1979.
"This modest ordinance provides healthier food choices for children and families, addresses the childhood obesity epidemic, reduces costs to our health care system and protects the public's health," Mar said.
Similar legislation in Santa Clara County went into effect on Monday and dictates that meals with toys may not exceed 485 calories.
Before the board discusses the bill, the supervisors will be in recess until Sept. 11.

The State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education is slated to vote today on new rules for obtaining teacher credentials in Rhode Island.
With a vote expected Thursday on the state budget for the fiscal year beginning in July, here's a look at some highlights for public schools and state colleges and universities.
Elementary and Secondary Education
17-year-old Celia Cabrera designs a tile for the senior wall at Providence's E-Cubed Academy.
Two members of the state board of higher education are calling for a re-assessment of a tuition waiver program for state college and university employees.
Michael Tikoian, Vice Chairman of the Board of Governors for Higher Education and committee member Amy Beretta say the waiver system may be inappropriate in the current financial climate.
Providence could do a much better job teaching non-native English speakers, according to a new report from the Council of Great City Schools. The report finds expectations are not high enough in many of the city's English language learning classrooms. It also says those students are not benefiting from broader efforts to improve Providence Public Schools.
Providence School officials say they will convene a task force to respond to the recommendations in the report, which was commissioned by the district.
Anyone who's ever visited a classroom is familiar with the scenario: a quiet kid sits in the back of the room looking distant and not taking part in the discussion.
This presents a dilemma for teachers. Leave the student alone, or press for more classroom participation?

U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan says he's happy with the way Rhode Island is using its $75 million Race to the Top Grant. The state has been working on several major initiatives including annual teacher evaluations and curriculum reviews.
Duncan says his staff will sit down with state education officials next week to review their progress.

Outgoing Brown President Ruth Simmons is preparing her final address to the campus community. She's slated to speak tomorrow at a baccalaureate ceremony as part of Brown's graduation weekend.
Economics has surpassed the biological sciences as the most popular field at Brown University. Roughly 220 members of the undergraduate class of 2012 will receive economics degrees during commencement exercises this weekend.
Biological sciences are the second most popular degree with 200 concentrators, while international relations comes in a distant third.

Strong, middle of the pack, or pos? I noticed that I had to do alot of spot healing the other night on stone guard which sucked my mana pretty quick(mainly tanks).
90 Pandaren Shaman
"Middle of the pack" is probably most accurate, if not slightly on the "strong" side due to the effectiveness of Healing Tide and Ascendance in the correct burst phases.
Shamans may not be the leader of the pack, but they're probably in the best place they've been in for a while. My opinion.
Yeah I noticed HTT was EXTREMELY helpful, was still learning the mechanics and our communication on burst phases was basically nil so didn't pop ascendance :( but like I said everything is a learning curve for us atm so tonite will prolly change. On average I was doing 40-45k hps and only trailing the druid by about 3% in overall healing.
90 Troll Shaman
Front-Middle. Monks broke out of the pack in 25's due to a massive lack of DR / target cap bug.
I stacked all spirit for 25 man mana tide boost (not that I'm not benifiting from the regen) and ended up pretty high on most fights. Only priests are in a position to '/reroll' right now. Everyone else is balanced, assumign they fix the monk OP bug.
Since MGV is like DS, Shamans can fulfill their niche so we're really good. That being said, we'll have to see when the raids become more spread next month ;).
Middle of the pack, and best I've felt about shaman healing in a long time.
We're still IMO best to bring during progression, I have great spike healing thanks to our mastery and help us get the most out of our learning pulls by keeping us up longer.
Also HTT or go home
Also HTT or go home
Don't underestimate AG, although it may not be as viable as HTT in every situation coupled with Ascendance and no damage can kill your raid.
Having another raid saving cool down that doesn't require the raid to be stacked in the same way that SLT does is probably its biggest appeal, plus numbers.
I probably won't mess around with other talents in that tier until farming starts

Official teaser trailer for Carnivores: Ice Age for iOS by Tatem Games.
Carnivores: Ice Age throws you onto a recently discovered planet to test your aiming and tactical skills on a realistic ice safari. The game delivers an intelligent hunting experience and offers a lot more than a visit to a shooting range. Unrivaled possibility to wander around open 3D world without limits makes the process of finding prey exciting and the whole game endlessly replayable.
The hunter, equipped with weapons and all sorts of hunting accessories like camouflage and cover scent, needs not only to be quiet as a mouse when approaching a saber-tooth beast but also take care of details like wind direction not to end up as an animal's dinner. Advanced AI of the animals turn them from dummy targets to aggressive hosts protecting their planet and add a shooter feeling to the gameplay.
Pack your things and start hunting in Carnivores: Ice Age if you are ready to explore the new huge world and think before you shoot.

Were these "roadworkers" contractors working for the City, City personnel, or random roadworkers? It's pretty hard to hit a water main that's buried 4 or 5 feet underground, unless you're working on something other than the road.

Lucky that homes, condos, etc. didn't get water rushing into your underground garages! It could have a FLOOD down there, that would destroy a LOT of good STUFF, LIKE CARS for one, PLUS storage areas.jnqwh

Honestly no. While I hold nothing against pandas IRL...I was extremely disappointed upon hearing that they would be a new race, and I find monks to be redundant at best, which have succeeded in doing nothing else but taking blizzard's time away from fixing damaged specs.
I would like to keep the druid races to what they are now. I can only imagine the rage that Malfurion felt (RP) upon learning that trolls were now openly using druidism.
100 Worgen Druid
I would love to use panda druids
No,.. no and No. Just does not fit lore whatsoever and would really kill the strict race feel of druids, as if that wasn't killed enough by going from 2 races to 4.
90 Blood Elf Monk
100 Night Elf Druid
No. But to be fair, I find even some of the current classes pandas can be to be a bit of a stretch concept/lore-wise.
I don't understand why they can be shammys and not druids, cuz shammys requires some kind of "lore" too.
I mean, they are already bears, can you imagine the bear form activation?
Bear Form : Put your fists on the ground.
90 Tauren Druid
Lore wise, I agree with the decision. Panda druids don't make a lot of sense.
Personally tho, I would pay money to be a panda druid!
90 Worgen Druid
As above mentioned WoW has a storyline that it follows. Because of this there is no Panda druid.
90 Night Elf Druid
would there be any real difference from their regular form from their bear form I wonder.....
I don't understand why they can be shammys and not druids, cuz shammys requires some kind of "lore" too.
Well the main problem is they have no touch with the druid hero figures that help lead the creation of druids, and they have no real reason for it either. Trolls were given lore reason for becoming druids, or slightly twisting their shamanistic abilities to become druids etc. Worgen (original worgen) were created by the druids and the humans (Gilneas) were just harvesters that used slight druidic magic to help crops etc but the transformation into worgen helped enable them to further extend their druidic abilities (hence no human druids).
Also on the shaman argument, there can be slight argument made about the pandaren on the island that enabled them their shamanistic capabilities due to the fac tthat they did rely heavily on those 4 elementals during the main stages of the quests(lvl 6-9ish). Just saying.
Yeah you did get me on that one lol, I should of clarified myself and not miss-worded that way(which made it sound entirely against worgen/trolls). Having the Druid race choices strict gives the class a unique feel, though having it as strict as it was in Vanilla-WLK was just a little too strict in some cases. Adding these 2 races was just right(in my opinion) to enable some choice in being a druid while maintaining some race strict feel to the class. Pandaren just would help kill the feel let alone make the lore all the more confusing.
i support the panda druids.
Unlike you, a lot of us do care about lore..
Shadowmeld is actually useful PVE wise for healer druids to help lose aggro in case they pull a mob, and if they wipe and last to survive it acts as a FD thus enabling them to res the other players. Other than that it's all bout PVP.
Edited by Cmhiten on 2/4/2013 12:15 PM PST
First of all, since when did Blizzard actually care about their own lore? They trample over it time and time again.
Second. it can still make sense as a concept. Pandaria has been isolated for years, they could've learned druidism much like the troll druids.
Third. how did other races become monks? they were taught. I don't see any problem with current druids teaching pandaren (if they didn't know druidism already) how to commune with nature since it pretty much fits their life style perfectly.
Fourth. druids currently have the least race/class combinations possible, this would allow druids to bring up that number closer to everyone else.
Fifth. the old 'bears can't be bears' argument and what else would their forms be. bear form would just be them reverting to a more primal state, their bear form would obviously be a panda skin. cat form would be a white tiger like the white tiger spirit at the temple. flight form would be a jade serpent. travel form and aquatic form could be a number of things. moonkin form would be a more white colored moonkin.
Sixth. if none of the other 5 reasons are good enough then please tell me how a pandaren rogue makes more sense. they're so big and not sneaky at all, just like a draeni or tauren, and like a draeni or tauren it doesnt seem very in nature of them to be like a rogue in the first place (im sure some pandaren could be outliers, but concept wise it goes against everything that pandaren are).
... shadowmeld?
offtopic. shadowmeld is also good for sub rogues in pve so they can restealth more often to ambush and get find weakness.
Edited by Chikatree on 2/4/2013 12:23 PM PST
100 Night Elf Druid
At the present, the Panderan are a race that is only encountering the world at large for the first time. External concepts such as the Light and Druidism are alien to them.
Shamanism is a stretch, but since their culture involves a form of ancestor/spirit worship, it works. Kinda. Sorta.
Druidism would be somewhat alien for their culture, but right now just about everything they're encountering in Azeroth fits that description. I wouldn't object to them learning Druidism in the next expansion, much like the Trolls learned Loa magic comparable to Druidism for Cataclysm.
But to do so right now? Doesn't fit the story.
Shadowmeld is a racial, not a class ability. Panda Druids would not be able to get it.
That would be like saying if they made Panda DKs, they could get Every Man For Himself.
i support the panda druids.
That's the thing about lore, there can be new lore.
Tauren Paladins, Night Elves being mages, all these people saying "No undead druids, no Panda druids because of lore" Probably would've said the same exact thing about Tauren Paladins, or Troll Druids, or Worgen Druids.
I still say the same thing about Troll and Worgen Druids. There should only be 2 races for the Druids: Night Elves and Tauren.
If we were to follow this mindset to it's most logical conclusion, Night Elves shouldn't exist to begin with, since the first 2 warcrafts were just "Orcs and Humans" and "That's all there should be in warcraft"
as you can tell, that would be a very stupid and limiting mindset now wouldn't it?

Black Triana, Tarantella; Does anyone grown these?
I have seen references to figtrees.com in the Boston area but can't find any descriptions on-line for their Black Triana or Tarantella. Does anyone on this forum grow those varieties? If so, can you describe them and/or their performance?
Many thanks.
I am conducting fig cultivar suitability studies in South Louisiana. I grow the Black Triana and many other varieties. You can read about the Black Triana and many other cultivars on a current thread that is running on the figs4fun fig forum (link below). That forum allows post editing and I update my post on this thread almost daily as the figs ripen in my collection. I give taste ratings and fig descriptions in this post.
Here is a link that might be useful: figs4fun forum thread
Thanks, arigato. Yes, I know about Joe. Just thought someone on here might
have some hands-on experience with these varieties. I have read
Italiangirl's posts about his Paradiso but haven't seen anything about the
Yes, Diesler, you can dance the Tarantella and eat it too!
Danab, thanks for mentioning the Figs4fun thread. I'll head over there.

Private California Collection of Impressionist Paintings Highlights Christie's Sale
Camille Pissarro (1830-1903), Enfants attablés dans le jardin à Eragny, oil on canvas, 23 3/4 x 28 5/8 in. Painted in 1892. Estimate: $3,000,000-4,000,000. Photo: Christie's Images Ltd 2010.
announced it has been selected to offer The Walter and Phyllis Shorenstein Collection as part of its major fall 2010 and spring 2011 sales in New York and Hong Kong. Assembled over more than four decades by Walter Shorenstein, the San Francisco real estate mogul, and Phyllis Shorenstein, founder of the city's Asian Art Museum, the collection unites the couple's individual passions for Impressionist paintings and sculpture and fine Chinese glass, porcelain, jade and works of art. Over 170 items from this exceptional private collection will be offered across nine sale categories this fall and in the spring of 2011, beginning with Christies major Evening Sale of Impressionist and Modern Art in New York on November 3 and Fine Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art in Hong Kong on December 1. The total value is expected to achieve in excess of US$24 million. As is fitting for a single-owner collection of such stature and broad global appeal, Christies will launch the sale offerings with a dedicated bi-lingual catalogue in both English and
Laura Paulson, Deputy Chairman and International Director at Christies New York, comments: Christies is delighted to have been entrusted with the sale of this stellar collection, which brings together the best of Eastern and Western artistic traditions in one thoroughly modern cohesive whole. Both Walter and Phyllis Shorenstein were dedicated to art and connoisseurship, and Mrs. Shorensteins pioneering efforts in the field of Chinese glass in particular produced one of the best-known and most important collections of its type in America, if not in the Western World. As witnessed at our record-breaking spring sales of Impressionist and Modern Art in New York and Chinese Works of Art in Hong Kong, masterpiece-level works of this type continue to attract collectors from all over the world and drive exceptional results in our salerooms."
Best-known as a titan of San Francisco real estate, a lead fundraiser for the Democratic Party, and one of Americas wealthiest men, the late Walter H. Shorenstein is famously quoted as saying I arrived in San Francisco with no job, a pregnant wife and less than $1,000 to my name. After serving in the Army Air Corps during World War II, Shorenstein set about building a San Francisco real estate empire that by the mid-1980s had an estimated 10 million square feet of office and commercial real estate under management. His firm, the Shorenstein Company, developed many of the citys most notable structures, including the landmark 52-story Bank of America building.
Throughout his life, Mr. Shorenstein was a steadfast supporter of the Democratic Party, and in 1997, he received the Democratic National Committee's Lifetime Achievement Award. Over the years, he served as an advisor to the administrations of presidents Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton. In 2009, just prior to his death at the age of 95, he was named to Forbes magazine's list of the "400 Richest Americans" with an estimated net worth of US$1 billion.
Outside the world of business and politics, Mr. and Mrs. Shorenstein developed an enduring interest in Asian, European and American Art and set about acquiring some the best examples of works available at the time. Phyllis Shorenstein was a devoted collector of Japanese and Chinese works of art in particular, and had an unerring eye for exceptional quality and historical importance. Seeing a unique opportunity to develop San Franciscos cultural heritage, Mrs. Shorenstein helped to found the citys Asian Art Museum, which opened in Golden Gate Park in 1966. She served as a board member for many years and was one of the museum's 27 commissioners at the time of her death in 1994.
Impressionist and Modern Art Evening Sale
Christies New York, November 3, 2010
Of the many excellent examples of Impressionist painting in the Shorenstein Collection, a stand-out is La Seine à Argentueil; estimate: $5-7 million) a magnificent 1882 work by Gustave Caillebotte (1848-1894). With its high-keyed color palette and dynamic compositional structure, this superb depiction of racing yachts on the Seine captures the essence of Impressionist technique and ranks among the finest of the artists many exquisite works. At the time of its painting, Caillebotte had traded the city streets of Paris for the idyllic landscapes of Argenteuil, where he could pursue his twin passions of painting and competitive sailing. The two sailboats at the center of the work, the red-hulled Inès and the bright yellow Condor, were both custom-built for Caillebotte, with the latter leading him to multiple victories in elite racing events.
In June of this year, a related work from the Argenteuil sailing series, La Seine à Argentueil, bateaux au mouillage, sold at Christies London for $4.8 million. Christies leads the market for exceptional works by Caillebotte, having set all of the top 15 prices for the artists work at auction, including the standing record of $14.3 million for Caillebottes 1880 Paris view Lhomme au balcon, boulevard Haussmann.
Additional Impressionist masterworks from the Shorenstein Collection include Camille Pissarros Enfants attablés dans le jardin à Eragny (estimate: $3-4 million), a harmonious late masterpiece depicting the artists three children against the sun-dappled backdrop of the great masters garden at Eragny, and Georges Seurats Le Chemin creux (estimate: $1.8-2.5 million), an important early landscape that was formerly in the collection of R.A. Peto, one of Englands most distinguished collectors of Impressionist paintings.
Luminous Colours: Treasures from the Shorenstein Collection
Christies Hong Kong, December 1, 2010
Featuring 80 works valued in excess of US$10 million, the Shorenstein Collection is among the seasons most significant single owner sales of Chinese works of art. Amongst the splendid examples to be offered in Hong Kong on 1 December, the exceptional glass, porcelain and jade are particularly impressive.
A magnificent pink-enamelled blue and white Qianlong moonflask leads the porcelain offerings (estimate upon request). Decorated with phoenixes amongst flower scrolls in underglaze blue and overglaze pink enamel, it is a rare and superb example that is as a testament to the outstanding artistry and technical skill of the craftsmen employed at the imperial kilns. Each phoenix is exceptionally finely rendered, making this moonflask one of the most striking examples of the few porcelains known with this combination of colors and techniques. The pair of this vase is in the Matsuoka Museum of Art, Tokyo.
Chinese glass production reached its highest point in the Qing dynasty, with spectacular glass vessels being made in the Imperial Glass Workshops during the reigns of the Kangxi (1662-1722), Yongzheng (1723-1735) and Qianlong (1736-1795) emperors. Phyllis Shorensteins collection of Chinese glass is among the most comprehensive in private hands, the majority of the examples date to the first half of the Qing dynasty. Leading the selection is a Qianlong ruby red glass phoenix-form ewer, an impressive piece that demonstrates the skilled combination of molding and carving (estimate: HK$2-3 million/US$260,000 390,000). Its relief-carved decoration and gilt-bronze handle combine in a most striking and innovative piece that will be among the collections most sought-after glass offerings.
Leading the highlights of important jade from the Shorenstein Collection is an exquisite imperial white jade conch shell (estimate HK$3.5-5 million/US$450,000 650,000). The Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong emperors were devout Tibetan Buddhists, and this very fine carving known in Sanskrit as Sankha, represents one of the most commonly used ritual implements in Tibetan Buddhism as it conveys the imagery of the Transmission of Buddhist teachings. Given that white jade was among the most precious of materials at the time, and the fact that a significant amount of jade had to be cut away and discarded to achieve this shape, very few conch shell forms appear to have been made in jade and no other examples of this fine quality and large size appear to be recorded.
Additional highlights from the Shorenstein Collection will be featured in multiple sale categories later this fall and in spring 2011. A highlight of Christies Important American Paintings sale on December 1 in New York is Summer Morning, Giverny (estimate: $150,000-250,000), a lyrical work by Willard Leroy Metcalf (1858-1925), an East Coast American Impressionist painter known as the poet laureate of the New England hills. On December 11, the Antiquities sale will offer an Apulian red-figure volute-krater, attributed to the Seated Woman Group, circa 340-320 B.C. (estimate:$20,000-30,000).
The Shorenstein Collection will also be offered during Christie's New York spring Asian Art Week from March 22-24, featuring a variety of collecting categories - from magnificent examples of Imperial porcelain and jade of China, elegant and refined works of art from Japan, and superb sculptures from India and Southeast Asia. Leading the highlights of the collection of Chinese Works of Art is a crisply carved large stone head of Buddha, Wei dynasty, 6th century, from the Gong Xian Grotto of the Honan Province (estimate: $150,000-300,000). The collection offers a stunning section in Chinese jades such as the greenish-white jade bowl, cover and stand (estimate: $15,000-20,000) and a spinach green jade shallow marriage bowl of the Qing dynasty (estimate: $15,000-20,000). Additional highlights include a silver and gold leaf two-panel screen made by the Rimpa School of the 17th century (estimate: $50,000-70,000) offered in the Japanese Art sale and Mathura, a mottled red sandstone torso of a male deity, India, Kushan, 2nd century A.D. (estimate: $60,000-80,000) offered in the Indian and Southeast Asian Art sale.
