Boeing begins program to produce aviation biofuel from hybrid tobacco plants
By Loz Blain
August 7, 2014
As part of the aviation industry's efforts to use biofuels to drive down its carbon footprint, Boeing has announced a collaboration with South African Airways and SkyNRG to produce aviation fuel from a new, virtually nicotine-free tobacco plant. Test farms are already up and running, with Boeing hoping to use local tobacco growing lands and expertise to produce sustainable biofuel without impacting food-bearing crops or encouraging smoking.
The modified hybrid tobacco plant, known as Solaris, produces oil-rich seeds – and these seeds will be used to produce aviation biofuel in the first stage of the program. Boeing is hoping that "emerging technologies" will allow fuel to be extracted from the remainder of the plant in the coming years.
According to the Tobacco Industry of Southern Africa, tobacco is already a popular alternative crop with many industrial farming operations in the poorer soil areas north of Johannesburg. In 2013, there were 187 tobacco farming operations in the area employing somewhere between 8-10,000 workers and producing some 15 million kilograms of tobacco, mainly for cigarettes.
Biofuel opponents argue that fuel crops often displace food crops, contributing to the global food crisis and demanding enormous amounts of land that often lead to forest area being cleared. They also question the validity of industry claims that biofuels are carbon neutral or environmentally friendly, given the oil-rich fertilizer, transport costs and water usage they require – it'll sure take a lot of those little seeds to power a 747.
But the aviation industry argues that sustainably produced biofuels can reduce carbon emissions between 50 and 80 percent, and Boeing says it is working with the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials "to position farmers with small plots of land to grow biofuel feedstocks … Without harming food supplies, fresh water or land use."
Source: Boeing.
So, THAT explains the tobacco bans......noteugene
If you want bio fuel go with bio-methane or bio-syn-gas and Fischer–Tropsch to room temperature liquid.
Hydrogen is just ludicrous.Slowburn
Using arable land to grow crops for conversion to ICE type fuel is great idea for an alien planet without fossil fuels...well no, not really, not even then. Wasting arable land in such folly on earth is best summed up by Gen, Clements McAuliffe one word response to the Germans at Bastogne, "Nuts!"Robert Walther
As part of the aviation industry's efforts to use biofuels to drive down its carbon footprint
Before worrying about carbon footprint, shouldn't they should worry about dwindling oil production and rising costs?
Boeing is hoping that "emerging technologies" will allow fuel to be extracted from the remainder of the plant in the coming years.
How does it compare to kerosene in terms of energy density and production cost?Shohreh
Hydrogen, hydrogen, HYDROGEN!!!! Bio-fuels are a dangerous red herring.pATREUS
Or you could just grow industrial hemp and get your food right along with your fuel and have as well fiber for paper, cloth, car body panels, rope, structural timber replacement for housing and thousands of other proven products.JoejustJoe
Joe, Don't bogart that idea... Pass it around dude!Andrew Mladinich
And what's wrong with algae?Slaven
I'll try to answer some of the above questions: What's wrong with algae / hemp / fosil fuels? - Algae doesn't grow where tobacco grows without considerable infrastructure improvements (like grow tanks) and knowledge; - Hemp has all sorts of social and political ill-will and misunderstandings. Growing it at scale causes unrest among various groups; - fossil fuels will eventually run out and release more carbon than perhaps poor people would like (rich people will be able to buy their way out of any global warming issues they may face).
Hydrogen: I assume you are being funny. Bio-fuels (and others) are essentially a form of hydrogen. IE: Hydrogen bound to one or more carbons which form an easy to handle and transport liquid. Raw Hydrogen is a tricky customer to deal with.
So why tobacco? I don't think this was adequately addressed in the article so you had to sort of use your thinking organ. Do we want smoking? no (and by we I mean society at large, not addicts). But if for example we banned smoking world-wide overnight, what would become of the tobacco farmers and companies? Apparently in South Africa there are a lot of tobacco farmers that rely on cigarettes to make a living. So what if growing non-nicotine tobacco was more profitable but required no additional infrastructure or knowledge? Well the tobacco farmers could easily switch crop and governments could make smoking harder. The tobacco companies could produce bio-fuel for aviation instead of cancer sticks to fill our hospitals. Sounds like a big win. Does that scenario not sound feasible? I think it would be brilliant.Scion
I think Scion is onto something. I think it is a better use of the plant that smoking it, IMO.BigGoofyGuy
First off you would have to smoke a LOT of industrial hemp to get high, you would destroy your lungs.
Bio fuels are a dead end. Its not just the land, food, energy wasted, etc but the tons and tons of fertilizer and pesticides dumped on these crops that then run into the water sheds. If you are growing food than you can weigh the cost but for fuel?
By the time we begin to run out of fossils I assume they will figure out how to superheat propellent to plasma for thrust or some other technology. Heck, just perfecting electric cars may cause a crash in the remaining fossils so that what remains will be extended for another 100 years to allow even greater tech advancements.Rann Xeroxx

- Morgan Stanley's Adam Parker completes his turn from one of the Street's most bearish to its most bullish investment strategist with his S&P 500 2014 in 2014 target - an 11.5% advance from here. "The only thing people are worried about is that no one is worried about anything," he says ... "That isn't a real worry."
- He's not discounting the chance of a "Pavlovian" sell-off amid taper banter, but says any spring dip as the taper commences will be a buying opportunity "unless our outlook for corporate earnings markedly deteriorates."
- "It isn't preposterous to say that we could be in an environment of synchronous global economic expansion in 2014, and tapering or not, that isn't fully in today's prices."

Oct. 23, 2013, 3:25 PM
- 'Skepticism about equity markets remains high," says deep-value investing giant Richard Pzena. Given the level of interest rates, the S&P 500 would have to rise by about 15% just to restore the historical equity risk premium. Put another way, the 10-year Treasury yield would have to rise to 3.8% vs. 2.5% today for the current level of the S&P to make sense.
- Think the market should go down? By Pzena's calculation, the 10-year Treasury yield would have to jump to 5% to justify a S&P 500 10% lower than it is now.
- What about value? Even five years since the end of the financial crisis, value stocks still have double-digit expected returns going forward if value spreads return to their norms, he says.

- The S&P 500's 22% YTD return has been driven almost entirely by multiple expansion rather than higher earnings, says Goldman's David Kostin. That and the fact that the Cyclically Adjusted PE (CAPE) Ratio made famous by now-Nobel-laureate Robert Shiller suggests the index is about 30% overvalued isn't enough to have Kostin forecasting a bear market.
- Instead, the music's playing so we dance - he sees a flat S&P through year-end, but has a target of 1,900, or 9% above today's level in 2014.

- We didn't start the fire. Today's government shutdown is the 17th in the last 100 years, with 16 of those occurring since 1976.
- Compiling the returns of the S&P 500 (SPY) during those other episodes, Raymond James' Jeff Saut finds little to base a market call on - the median return is negative 0.1% and returns are positive 47% of the time.

Sep. 29, 2013, 9:13 PM
- Particularly apt reading tonight as stocks head south on worry about a partial U.S. government shutdown, The Brooklyn Investor makes the case for trying to ignore whatever the latest macro-boogeyman happens to be, and instead focus on buying and holding reasonably valued stocks. Paraphrasing Seth Klarman: "You just have to figure out what a business can earn in five or ten years on a normalized basis and see what it's worth; if you can buy it for lower than that, then it doesn't matter what the headlines say."
- The Shiller cyclically adjusted P/E ratio does raise TBI's eyebrow as it shows the market to be 47% overvalued, but it was similarly so in 1966. While the averages did nothing over the next 16 years, the "Superinvestors of Graham and Doddsville" (Walter Schloss, Tweedy Brown, Sequoia Fund) racked up ridiculous returns (this, of course, may be of little comfort to index investors).
- Buffett's classic "Superinvestors" article from 1984.
- Can the market go down? A lot? No doubt, says TBI, but the odds against being able to exploit a bear market are far too long - better to spend time looking for stocks trading at 1.1x book that should be selling for 1.5x book.

- "When the President is in trouble, the stock market is in trouble," said Eliot Janeway years ago. "Clearly the President is in trouble," says Raymond James' normally bullish, but recently cautious Jeff Saut.
- Yesterday's opening spike was seemingly the result of short-covering from those who sold Friday expecting missiles to fly over the weekend, says Saut. Once sated, markets drifted downward, barely eking out a gain by day's end. "Up mornings and down afternoons is not particularly good stock market action."
- This correction likely won't be complete until the S&P 500 moves south of 1,600 (1,640 at the moment), says Saut, but he expects the index to remain above 1,500.
- Notable is the level of investor complacency as shown by this chart from Jason Goepfert: The ratio of mutual fund and ETF assets to money market fund assets is at an all-time high of 3.49 - surpassing the levels seen at the peaks in 2000 and 2007.

- What George Soros' The Alchemy of Finance was to global macro investors, Michael Burry's journal of trades in 2000/2001 may be to value fans. "My strategy isn't very complex. I try to buy shares of unpopular companies when they look like road kill, and sell them when they've been polished up a bit ... I care little about the level of the general market and put few restrictions on potential investments."
- Plucked out of message-board obscurity and staked by Joel Greenblatt, Burry posted returns at his Scion Capital hedge fund of 8.2% in 2000 (partial year), 44.7% in 2001, and 13.1% in 2002, as the S&P lost 7.5%, 11.9%, and 22.1% during the same periods. When the S&P bounced 28.7% in 2003, Scion gained 50.7%.
- This journal shows Burry willing to venture into just about any industry or situation as long as he sees value there. One place he definitely didn't spot value was in the previously-favored big cap tech names as their stock prices imploded. "Now that the bubble is pricked, tech stocks will face scrutiny they never faced before. It is a good time to start picking prices based on a solid understanding of the fundamentals ... greater bargains are sure to come."
- Burry went on make an even bigger fortune for himself and his investors by shorting MBS from 2005 on (though his investors, including Greenblatt, never forgave him for straying from stockpicking).

- Judging by the latest fund-flow data, investors are selling now and asking questions later, yanking $12.3B out of U.S. stock funds last week, the biggest outflow in more than five years.
- A combined $20B flew out of stocks and bonds, while money market funds saw an influx of new cash.
- The question now is whether the big outflows across asset classes marks the beginning of a new trend, especially as concerns grow about the Fed's next move.

Convert PDF documents to Word
Boxoft PDF to Word is an excellent tool that converts PDF documents to Word so that you can work on them more easily.
If you need to edit PDF documents and don't have the right tool to do it – but you do have Microsoft Office installed on your computer - Boxoft PDF to Word is the way to go. This simple yet powerful app converts PDF files to DOC, making them much easier to edit.
The best thing about Boxoft PDF to Word is that it includes two working modes, Batch Conversion and Hot Directories. Batch Conversion lets you convert PDF files the usual way, by selecting them from the File menu or just by dragging and dropping them on the program's interface. You can convert as many PDF documents as you need at the same time.
The Hot Directories Mode is even better: simply select a folder and Boxoft PDF to Word will monitor it. The moment you save a PDF file to this folder, Boxoft PDF to Word will convert it to DOC and save it to an output folder automatically.
Boxoft PDF to Word features a nicely designed interface and is very easy to use. Sadly the program seemed a bit unstable when dealing with long PDF documents, up to the point of crashing when we tried to convert a 526-page file.
With Boxoft PDF to Word you can easily convert PDF documents to DOC, so that you can edit them in Word.
- Easy to use
- Two working modes
- Lets you convert several files simultaneously

"Hey kids, let's put on a show!"
So, you know you want to put on a play. Perhaps there's a show you've been burning to produce. I know I have a list: — anyone who wants a director for Life is a Dream, King Charles III, Cymbeline, The Music Man, or Our Betters, let me know!
As we set about producing a play in today's day and age, I think we must ask ourselves, "Why this play? Why now? Why this medium?"
Why do we need to hear this story, told in this context with these words? And, especially in an age in which many stories can be told on television and film in a very compelling fashion, "Why do we need to see this story told as a play?" These are questions I continually ask myself and my collaborators throughout our rehearsal process. They are the questions that drive me to create theatre – this transient experience,

|Property type
Get Away to an unspoiled natural environment where several eagle sitings daily are common. A place that has been virtually untouched and unspoiled, that is Beaver Island. Our cabin (Eagle's Rest) is situated 100 feet from Lake Michigan on a 10 acre Parcel. The views of Lake Michigan and High Island are spectacular!
Getting to Beaver Island: The first stop is Charlevoix, MI, a Lake Michigan harbor city located approx 250 miles north of Detroit. You can also fly into Pelston or Traverse City airports and connect to Ferry or Island Airways in Charlevoix. From Charlevoix take a quick 20 minute flight or the 2 hour leisurely ferry ride on the Emerald Isle. Either way, it's an amazing adventure!
When you arrive on the island you will find a place that will take you back in time. Slow, patient, friendly and Beautiful! You might want to stop at the Shamrock for a beverage after the ferry ride or take the scenic 20 minute drive straight out to Eagle's Rest. Distance is measured by time on the Island, most of the roads have not been paved...it's just another way to make you slow down!
When you reach Eagle's Rest the drive in is through a wooded pathway into a vast open area with scattered trees along the perimeter. Eagle's Rest was built in 2004, and is very charming, with spectacular views of Lake Michigan and High Island. It is 900 sq. feet including the loft, has a great front porch and slate patio overlooking the lake. All furnishings are new or local antiques. Eagle's Rest has electricity and running water, the toilet is in the new 'old fashioned' outhouse, there is an outdoor shower with cold and hot running water (and a shower curtain for privacy). It is the renter's responsibility to bring their own sheets and towels. Eagle's Rest has a charming decor with an open layout which includes 14 large Anderson windows, many are floor to ceiling overlooking Lake Michigan. There is one large loft with 2 single beds. The main floor has a comfortable pull out couch. It's perfect for a family of 4-6.
You may enjoy a good book overlooking Lake Michigan, walk the miles of sandy beach, take a swim in the clear lake water, explore the island and over 100 miles of roads and trails, kayak using the 2 kayaks provided, go for a bike ride using the 2 bikes provided, fish on one of the 5 inland lakes, roast marshmallows in the fire pit on the beach, admire the vast array of stars, discover some of the other islands in the Archipelego, visit the spa for a massage, play nine at the Beaver golf course, lounge on the patio, cocktails at Nina's, Donnegal Bay to enjoy the sunset, visit the CMU Biological center, or the 2 lighthouses on the island, Little Sand Bay, Iron Ore Bay or simply do Nothing! This is a vacation you will never forget and leave feeling truly rested. *Cabin is currently being added on to, this allows for additional sleeping space and use of an indoor toilet. Construction will not occur when you are renting.*
Keywords: Cabin
I chose to buy land on Beaver Island because of it's unique natural beauty and isolation
It is so quite and isolated. I enjoy the solitude and natural beauty.
My boyfriend and I stayed at this cabin for a weekend. Everyone on the island was very friendly. We had quick responses and communication with the owner of the cabin. The owner of the rental car company did not have a car available on our day of arrival so she picked us up and took us to our cabin then delivered a car to us. All while giving us a tour of the island. We went out to eat and everyone was so friendly and we found people who were from the same home town as us. The cabin was perfect for the price. They are adding onto the cabin but in no way shape or form did this hinder the feeling of staying in a cabin for us. It was nice to be able to use the indoor toilet tho! The bikes and kayaks were a HUGE plus. We went for a 3 hour bike ride and happen to ride by our neighbors(which we found out after we stopped and asked for directions) who were very friendly and gave us many inside tips on the island. We took the kayaks out for a full day. If you are an adventure person and not just a relax on the beach person then this is the perfect spot. You have to truck through a little muck to get the kayaks to the water but it is worth it! Once you get out to the water it is absolutely beautiful. It was only about 72 degrees the day we were out on the water but the water was so warm! The grill and fireplace were great to cook and relax at the end of the night. The shower is out on the back deck of the cabin, kind of tucked away tho, which was a great experience. I loved showering outdoors and just seeing the beauty of everything around. Overall I have no complaints. If you wanted to get away and be left alone and hang out at the cabin all weekend you could or if you wanted to go out and explore you could. We will defiantly be coming back!
My family and I stayed at the cabin for five nights in July 2013 and had an amazing time. The cabin was just as explained in the listing. The caretaker was very helpful and we received quick response times and good information from the owner. This cabin along with the island are very relaxing. We cannot wait until we can visit again. Thank you very much!
Great place to stay if you want to relax. The cabin is rustic, and yes, the large addition is not completed, but the working toilet was nice to have! And the property will look wonderful upon completion. Will definitely consider staying here again.
This is a lovely setting and the cabin is sort of like what is pictured. The problem for me was the building it is attached to (not shown in the photo) which is currently half built. No longer rustic, and more like a construction site if you like that sort of thing. I made the best of it but felt duped. As far as peace and quiet, I was treated to several evenings of fireworks from a nearby property, which terrorized my dog and almost made me wish I had stayed home. Beaver Island is great and I will come back, but not to this property. There are alot of better options.
My husband & I went during Labor Day to run the Big Beaver half marathon. Communication with Gerry was prompt and professional. Couldn't of asked for better weather to soak up the rays and enjoy the scenery. Semi rustic cabin great for the adventurous type. It's about 20 minutes from downtown (or Shamrocks Bar). Gorgeous view of the lake, but there's no beach to walk along - very marsh but nice looking. Giant fire pit to cozy to and even cook. There's grates to put on top of it to cook food. If that's not your fancy a charcoal grills provided too. Plenty of chairs for company to sit on outside as well. Out house about 200ft away from the cabin - very clean. Inside it's cozy enough for 4 max I'd say. Plenty of kitchen supplies & utensils to make a nice feast. 3 bikes provided but just for some leisurely riding. Showers outside just enough to get you clean and a beautiful view of the outdoors while you suds up. There's 2 kayaks to use, but we didn't use them. The people on the island are so hospitable. We're definitely coming back!
Before our arrival the cabin owners were very helpful and prompt in answering questions.
Upon our arrival we found a gorgeous quiet well maintained site.
The shower with hot water and well-supplied kitchen exceeded our expectations.
We spent many memorable hours sitting in the Adirondack chairs next to a fire with an unbeatable view of sky and water.

The purpose of the IYE was to encourage cooperation among NGO's, governments and industry in developing ecotourism practices that are environmentally, economically and socially beneficial, while minimizing their negative impacts.

Volunteer is making his retirement meaningful
But it is the uniform that makes him so recognizable — a white shirt, a flat-brimmed hat. Retirement wouldn't be the same for him without those.
"I tried golf," he said. "Gave it up. I'm not lookin' for just busy work. I'm lookin' for something that's meaningful."
Not everyone knows who the senior volunteers are, or what they do.
And no one appreciates detours — which, on parade days, fall to the patrol.
"People are either very appreciative … or they're very impatient and inconsiderate of others, and don't particularly appreciate what it is we're doing," he said.
Ortega doesn't let the pushy drivers and rambunctious crowds get to him, though. The days when he gets to check in on homebound senior citizens make up for the negative encounters.
"Fallbrook is good," he said. "You walk down the street here, and people are friendly. They'll wave at you with five fingers."

Consumer Reports Says Stay Away From Healthcare.gov
President Obama's new healthcare website is so bad that even the famed consumer advocate magazine Consumer Reports is warning thatAmericans should steer clear of the Obamacare websites until (and/or IF) the website ever gets fixed.
The absurd thing, here, it that Obama has been working on this system and this website interface for three years and the launch has been a disaster. Nothing works–not on the user end or the insurance company end–and the lack of security for everyone's personal info is extremely bad.
Millions of Americans have tried and failed to get through to the Obamacare website and even those who thought they had signed up will find that in fact they didn't as the insurance companies that these individuals thought they were contracting with have found that the information coming from the exchange system Obama set up is garbled, incomplete and otherwise useless to them.
With all this in the offing, the consumer magazine is telling its readers to steer clear of Obamacare's Healthcare.gov until these major, crushing failures are fixed. The magazine did, however, try to offer some tips on how people might try and navigate the Obamacare website.
Consumer Reports pointed out that only a low only 271,000 of the 9.47 million people that tried to sign up were successful in creating an account, but even that didn't denote a successful application for insurance.
But starting on October 1, the magazine has published a series of report slamming Obamacare as a massive screw up.
On the first day Healthcare.gov opened, CR told its readers, "Don't worry if you can't sign up today or even within the next couple of weeks." A week later they reiterated that warning telling readers to wait a few weeks further before bothering with it all. Saying that Obama's website was "barely operational" CR told readers to wait a few more weeks in hopes that Obama's team of Internet failures could "iron out its problems."
This week CR said it again. If al the tips seem too convoluted, CR sadly told its readers, "follow our previous advice: Stay away from Healthcare.gov."
The upshot is thatConsumer Reports is saying the whole system is a crushing failure and America should ignore the thing.
And this isn't even to mention that fact that once you put in your information into Healthcare.gov is not safe from cyber criminals.
In fact, Obamacare warns its users right in the user agreement warnings that any info put into the system is not safe.
Right on the terms and conditions page it says, "You have no reasonable expectation of privacy regarding any communication or data transiting or stored on this information system," reads the disclaimer, which does not appear on the site's visible."
So, you aren't safe putting your personal info into Obamacare.
Best for all Americans to take the advice of Consumer Reports, stay away from Healthcare.gov.

Birmingham City co-owner David Sullivan has turned on fans over slow season ticket sales.
Sullivan insisted Blues' season-ticket tally of 13,700 for the 2007-2008 campaign is "simply not enough" and that many clubs in the Coca-Cola Championship attract bigger gates.
City attracted 24,898 fans for their opening home Barclays Premier League clash of the season against Sunderland and the figure had only slightly increased to 24,981 for the visit of West Ham at the weekend.
Sullivan said: "This is our first year back in the Premier League and we must realise it is going to be a tough one. We are competing with many clubs who are bigger in terms of capacity and season ticket holders.
"We all know that we have one of the biggest fan bases in the country and, if these fans turn out and support us every week, we would need a 60,000 capacity stadium.
"However the reality is that most of our supporters are armchair fans unless it is a big game.
"Evidence of this was the Auto Windscreen Shield final a few years back when we took the largest following that any club had taken to the old Wembley since the Second World War (around 48,000)
"But the reality is we have 13,700 season ticket holders and that is simply not enough."
Sullivan added: "Many clubs in the Championship get bigger gates than us and the other promoted clubs, Sunderland and Derby, have 32,000 and 28,000 season ticket holders respectively.
"Our season ticket prices and match day admission prices are the second lowest in the division."

Why smart people are stupid
By JONAH LEHRER - THE NEW YORKER
Added: Wed, 13 Jun 2012 23:16:00 UTC
Here's a simple arithmetic question: A bat and ball cost a dollar and ten cents. The bat costs a dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?
The vast majority of people respond quickly and confidently, insisting the ball costs ten cents. This answer is both obvious and wrong. (The correct answer is five cents for the ball and a dollar and five cents for the bat.)
For more than five decades, Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel Laureate and professor of psychology at Princeton, has been asking questions like this and analyzing our answers. His disarmingly simple experiments have profoundly changed the way we think about thinking. While philosophers, economists, and social scientists had assumed for centuries that human beings are rational agents—reason was our Promethean gift—Kahneman, the late Amos Tversky, and others, including Shane Frederick (who developed the bat-and-ball question), demonstrated that we're not nearly as rational as we like to believe.
When people face an uncertain situation, they don't carefully evaluate the information or look up relevant statistics. Instead, their decisions depend on a long list of mental shortcuts, which often lead them to make foolish decisions. These shortcuts aren't a faster way of doing the math; they're a way of skipping the math altogether. Asked about the bat and the ball, we forget our arithmetic lessons and instead default to the answer that requires the least mental effort.
Although Kahneman is now widely recognized as one of the most influential psychologists of the twentieth century, his work was dismissed for years. Kahneman recounts how one eminent American philosopher, after hearing about his research, quickly turned away, saying, "I am not interested in the psychology of stupidity."
The philosopher, it turns out, got it backward. A new study in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology led by Richard West at James Madison University and Keith Stanovich at the University of Toronto suggests that, in many instances, smarter people are more vulnerable to these thinking errors. Although we assume that intelligence is a buffer against bias—that's why those with higher S.A.T. scores think they are less prone to these universal thinking mistakes—it can actually be a subtle curse.
West and his colleagues began by giving four hundred and eighty-two undergraduates a questionnaire featuring a variety of classic bias problems. Here's a example:
In a lake, there is a patch of lily pads. Every day, the patch doubles in size. If it takes 48 days for the patch to cover the entire lake, how long would it take for the patch to cover half of the lake?
Your first response is probably to take a shortcut, and to divide the final answer by half. That leads you to twenty-four days. But that's wrong. The correct solution is forty-seven days.
West also gave a puzzle that measured subjects' vulnerability to something called "anchoring bias," which Kahneman and Tversky had demonstrated in the nineteen-seventies. Subjects were first asked if the tallest redwood tree in the world was more than X feet, with X ranging from eighty-five to a thousand feet. Then the students were asked to estimate the height of the tallest redwood tree in the world. Students exposed to a small "anchor"—like eighty-five feet—guessed, on average, that the tallest tree in the world was only a hundred and eighteen feet. Given an anchor of a thousand feet, their estimates increased seven-fold.
But West and colleagues weren't simply interested in reconfirming the known biases of the human mind. Rather, they wanted to understand how these biases correlated with human intelligence. As a result, they interspersed their tests of bias with various cognitive measurements, including the S.A.T. and the Need for Cognition Scale, which measures "the tendency for an individual to engage in and enjoy thinking."

So what is ailing Team India? Neither MS Dhoni nor the team management seem to have a clue.
Picture this: India won the first Test in Ahmedabad, but England fought back to win the series 2-1. The subsequent Twenty20 series — against England and Pakistan — ended 1-1 before Pakistan won the three-match ODI series 2-1.
Non-performers Virender Sehwag and Zaheer Khan were duly axed but the youngsters didn't exactly set the stage on fire. They have been impressive, but in patches. What they lack is experience, and the number of close losses prove just that.
The bowlers showed their mettle in New Delhi by defending a small total and, thereby, avoiding a whitewash. The same bunch faltered in the first ODI against England, albeit on a featherbed in Rajkot. Openers Alastair Cook and Ian Bell enjoyed a 158-run stand before part-timer Suresh Raina got India the breakthrough.
However, the bowlers won't have much say in the second ODI either. The wicket at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here is also a batting paradise, although the outfield is on the slower side.
The bowlers, who took part in a separate session on Tuesday, were seen honing their skills. From bowling to the batsmen in the nets to hurling yorkers at a pair of shoes placed on the crease, they tried everything. India's bowling at the death has been pedestrian and, maybe, the bowlers were trying to address that issue. A couple of them also tried out a few slower deliveries from the back of the hand.
Our batsmen are getting starts, but none of them is making it count. A lot is expected from the top order. Both Ajinkya Rahane and Gautam Gambhir threw it away in Rajkot. They will have to come good on Tuesday and help India build a solid platform.
Virat Kohli, too, has to deliver. The man who used to slam centuries at will has been silent with the bat of late. Scores of 15, 7, 6, 0, 23 don't look good on his CV.
Meanwhile, Yuvraj Singh and Raina will have to take up the responsibility in the middle-order and bat out of their skins against a strong England bowling line-up.
Having Cheteshwar Pujara in the squad is a luxury, but the skipper doesn't seem to be in the mood to play him. Whatever be the case, if India have to start winning, then Dhoni will have to get everything right.

A cozy jewel of a house
Visitors to Frank Lloyd Wright's 'Fallingwater, should not miss 'Kentuck Knob', a house designed by Wright for the Hagan family.

He was occupies on many projects at the time, and famously said he could "shake it (Kentuck Knob) out of his sleeve at will", never even...more
Cucumber Falls
The Cucumber Run, a tributary to the Youghiogheny River tumbles off a 30 foot high sandstone shelf into the gorge carved by the Yough. It is pretty spectacular if the stream is running high, as it was on the wet day we were in the Ohiopyle State Park. The parking area is just off the Kentuck Road, and it takes only a few minutes to walk to the...more

Ohiopyle Restaurants
Coffee Fail!!!
We came for a snack lunch on our day tour of the Ohiopyle region. It was a wet day and the small town was deserted. Our first choice, the Firefly Grill was closed, so we tried the well reviewed Ohiopyle Bakery & Sandwich Shoppe, and found it pretty overrated. We ordered pepperoni rolls (loaded and unloaded), which were OK, but not served...more

In order to avoid trouble, just follow these simple rules. Don't have any alcohol in the State Park, do not run the falls except at the annual falls race, and do not jump off the US 381 brigde into the river.

Handbook & When Children Grieve
Where were you when I needed you?
The saddest question we ever hear is, "Where were you when I needed you?"
That's what people ask when they find out what we do in helping grievers. We're presenting helpful and accurate information on this site, at the time you need it most, with the hope that you'll never need to ask that question.
It's an honor and a sad privilege to be addressing you, knowing that each of you has recently experienced the death of someone important to you. We also know some of you are reading this because of your care and concern for someone who is confronted by the death of someone important in their life.
We bring our personal experience in dealing with the deaths of people who were important to us, and our professional know-how in helping grievers for more than 30 years. We'll help you distinguish between the "raw grief" that is your normal and natural reaction to the death, and the equally normal "unresolved grief" that relates to the unfinished emotions that are part of the physical ending of all relationships.
A basic reality for most grieving people is difficulty concentrating or focusing. With that in mind, we asked Tributes.com to print our articles in a large type font to make them easier to read. Sharing our concern for grieving people, they agreed.
From our hearts to yours,

Am I Going Crazy?—An all-too frequent question from grievers.
"Since my mother's death, I've had the experience of being in one room, deciding to go to another room to do something, and when I get there, I don't have a clue what I'm there for. Am I going crazy?"
No, you're not crazy. For most people, the immediate response to the awareness of the death of someone important to them is a sense of numbness. After that initial numbness wears off, the most common physiological reaction is a reduced ability to concentrate. The rest of the world goes out of focus. Nothing else is important. It is normal and natural that your entire being is centered on what happened and your relationship with the person who died.
The length of time that the reduced ability to concentrate lasts is individual and can vary from a few days to several months, and even longer. It is not a sign that there's something wrong with you. Realistically, the fact that the emotional impact of the death of that person has altered your day-to-day routines indicates something very healthy. It would make no sense for you not to be affected by the death.
Ask John & Russell – We often lie about our feelings because we think we might be judged for having them. (Published 5/19/2015)Q:
My grandmother died recently and it hurts so much to lose someone who I've been so close to. It also hurts when I talk to my husband. I cry about it and tell him I'm missing her so much. She was more like my mother rather than my actual mother, but I can't seem to cope with being around others when I think about her. All I do is cry and when they say "is something wrong," I just look at them and say "no." They ask me what I'm crying for. I say, "Nothing," and that's why I hardly have any friends, because I can't seem to get over that she's never coming back.

(Taste of Country) - Trisha Yearwood revealed plans for a new album and sang three new songs during a media event in Nashville on Tuesday night (Aug. 19). The superstar has signed with Sony and RCA Records, the same label that husband Garth Brooks announced a deal with in July.
An admittedly nervous Yearwood took the stage in front of about 100 people to explain what she's been up to and what she has planned. 'PrizeFighter' will be her 12th studio album — the first since 'Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love' in 2007. She didn't play the title track for media, explaining it was too big of a production for an acoustic performance. She did reveal, however, what the title means to her.

Hydration a priority for Fargo Marathon runners
WDAY meteorologist John Wheeler says look for partly cloudy skies tonight and a 6:30 p.m. temperature of around 93 degrees. The forecast for Saturday is a little trickier, he said, because a cold front will be passing through the area at about that time.
As of Thursday night, it looked to be cloudy with scattered showers or thundershowers between 7 a.m.-11 a.m. with temperatures between 60 and 65 degrees.
"So it will be chilly if it's raining but comfortable if it is not," Wheeler said. "Relative humidity will be 90-100 percent, so that will be a factor but at temperatures mainly below 65, humidity effects should be about the same or a little less than last year."
Residents asked to
help with 5K run
Fargo Marathon officials put out a plea on Thursday night asking citizens along the 5K route tonight to help keep participants cool.
People living along 14th Avenue North and 17th Avenue North are asked to turn on their boulevard sprinklers so participants can cool down if needed. Sprinklers should be contained to the boulevard as much as possible so that the water doesn't run into the street and cause a slip-hazard for participants.
"The Fargo Marathon has always been a community event and we really appreciate the community's help in making the 5K and all the races a fun, safe experience," said race director Mark Knutson.
Numbers continue
to grow; another record
The event has already set a record for number of registered participants, topping last year's mark of 23,057.
As of Thursday morning, the total was at 23,979 with the 5K and Youth Run still open. The hope of reaching 10,000 for the 5K, which would give 1,000 local kids a free pair of Nike running shoes, was at 8,500.
Other races and their participants: marathon (2,103), half marathon (6,600). 10K (3,720), relays (1,160) and Youth Run (1,896).
The record for the marathon was last year at 2,631. The half marathon record was also last year at 7,079.
Questions on traffic? Here is your guide
This is not the weekend to have your rummage sale. As usual, automobile drivers need to be prepared this weekend. Numerous roads will be closed and traffic numbers are expected to be higher than usual, according to the city of Fargo.
University Drive between 12th Avenue North and 19th Avenue North will be closed from 5-8 p.m. today for the 5K. It will close at 5 a.m. on Saturday until late in the afternoon.
The following areas are expected to be congested and drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes on Saturday:
E South University Drive between 30th Avenue South and 32nd Avenue South will be reduced to one lane in each direction Saturday from 8 a.m. to about 2 p.m.
E Construction on 10th Street North will detour traffic to 18th Street North via 12th Avenue North and 19th Avenue North.
E 10th Street South will be reduced to one lane for north-bound traffic between Second Avenue South and First Avenue North between 7 a.m. and about 3 p.m.
Also, drivers are recommended to use 25th Street as an alternate to University Drive on the south side. People traveling to the Fargodome are encouraged to use 12th Avenue North or 19th Avenue North via Interstate 29. If your destination is north of the Fargodome, it is suggested you use County Road 20 or 19th Avenue North from I-29.
Charter Club at 38 heading into 8th annual
The Fargo Marathon Charter Club is down to 38 members. The list of runners who have finished the first seven is mostly made up of runners from North Dakota and Minnesota.
Then there is Anna Pender of Kensington, Calif., and two Canadians: Maureen Penkiuk of Winnipeg and Michelle Strocen of Langruth, Manitoba.
