Crop insurance bill mounting for companies, taxpayers
Claim payments to American farmers hit by the 2012 drought topped $3.5bn this week, according to the United States' Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, journalstar.com reported on Saturday.
That includes more than $245m in compensation to Nebraska producers.
"This drought heavily affected spring-planted crops," said Keith Collins, spokesman for National Crop Insurance Services.
By the time the dust clears, payments to holders of federally subsidized crop insurance policies are likely to go well beyond last year's record of about $10.8bn nationally, Collins said.
He wasn't willing to forecast a final number on behalf of his organization.
"But yes, we've seen estimates anywhere from $15 billion to $30bn."
In Nebraska alone, according to federal crop insurance officials, those with a stake in crop production in 2012 bought almost 159,000 policies on about 15.6 million acres of land.
As one gauge of the level of participation, there are 18.17 million production acres in the state overall, including those where wild hay is harvested.
The total premium cost in the state of almost $667m included about $473m in taxpayer subsidies.
Two decades ago, farmers counted much more heavily on emergency disaster programs from federal lawmakers to help them survive weather extremes.
But more recently, higher subsidy rates and growing awareness about improvements in coverage, to include both yield and price protection, have made crop insurance the first line of defense against weather extremes.
In early November, Kansas is at the top of the chart in several crop insurance categories, including $448m in claims paid. One reason is that Kansas is the nation's biggest producer of winter wheat, which is harvested earlier than spring-planted crops.
That means the pace of claim filing and paying is running ahead of Nebraska and other states farther north.
Veteran crop insurance agent Ruth Gerdes of Auburn , who insures customers in several states, said she is about 50 percent done with claims.
"Harvest was early," she said, "and a lot of farmers have gotten their paperwork in, and we've been paying claims on a daily basis. So it's flowing well."
The taxpayer liability for the 2012 drought remains to be seen.
Collins said it would include about $6.9 billion in premium subsidies and about $1.3bn in operating costs.
"And then the question is what underwriting losses the government is going to bear."
That question looms because the federal Treasury stands behind insurance companies to prevent them from being overwhelmed by claims exposure at times of widespread weather calamity.

How different the world would be if we attempted to love every child, every
individual we meet the same way a mother loves her child, or the same way our
Heavenly Father loves us.
I agree, so far as the many mothers who do thus love and cherish their children are concerned, but what about the mothers who abuse, abort, and neglect their children, or who spoil them, or fail to teach t hem good principles. I don't think that these categories would represent only a tiny minority.

Thasos Greek Taverna in Fort Lauderdale: Perfect Place to Hide from the European Sovereign Debt Crisis
Christine Capozziello
Lamb chops at Thasos
Thasos Greek Taverna is named for the Greek isle where co-owner Gus Leontarkis was born. The restaurant, both outside and in, bears more resemblance to an ultra chic lounge than the windswept island known around the world for its wine and seafood.
It's a leap from the Denny's that once occupied the lot. Leontarkis and Co-owner Sophia Mylona spared no expense to refurbish the once-drab diner and it's impossible to tell that Grand Slams were ever served here.
The food inside is rustic and flavorful, though it may not quite match the slick exterior and the Rolls Royces and Maseratis scattered across the parking lot. Mylona said she's often questioned about why she chose to use the word taverna in the restaurant's name. She said she wanted Thasos to be a place where people can come at any time, in any dress and enjoy themselves. Despite the pricey fare and chic surroundings, relaxed families and grannies drinking wine were there in full force.

text: Alma is a hilltop B&B of pure tranquility, style and quiet grace. The rooms are elegant, comfortable and deliver a beautiful view of the pacific or, in the case of the lower floor, a peek into the forest canopy and the ocean beyond. Scott, Russel (owners) and manager Robert go above and beyond to make the stay everything you could hope for. Why savage? The road up to the hotel reminds me of the road to Montiverde...but vertical with hairpin turns on a cliffside. Not for the faint-hearted...but worth the bumps and arrhythmia. Scott really made our 3 kids feel at home and my wife and I enjoyed the luxe digs. We will be back for an extended stay as soon as possible.

THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL alum Ashley Tesoro née Cafagna, who played Kimberly on the soap from 1998-2001 is expecting her second child with her husband, Christian minister Anthony Tesoro. "We are thrilled to announce we are having baby number 2!" the pregnant star tweeted. "Anthony and I feel so blessed."
In making their announcement, the Tesoros (who run a Christian blog and vlog together) shared that they are expecting a boy. Their son, Gabriella, is 1 1/2. Congratulations!]]>
Pierson Fodé debuts on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL today, Monday, July 27 in the role of Thomas, last portrayed by Adam Gregory in 2014.
"Who's ready for Thomas Forrester? I know I am!" tweeted the daytime newcomer, who also stars with Victoria Justice in the film adaptation of the YA novel, Naomi & Ely's No Kiss List, which premiered this month in L.A. (Viewers may also recognize Fodé from the Disney series JESSIE, on which he plays a recurring love interest of the title character.)
Thomas has been living in Paris working at Forrester International in recent years, but he returns to L.A. with new ambitions that might not sit so well with his father, Ridge, and which could put his former flame, Caroline, in a rather awkward position! Do Thomas's romantic "designs" include more than the sketches in his drawing pad? ]]>
"I recently got a text from my cousin saying that a friend of hers on Facebook told her she laughed-out-loud at my scene," he says. "I think that's why audiences love Bill. He's entertaining, he's fun, and he brings everybody in on the joke. He's very multi-dimensional in that way." Diamont recently chatted with Soaps In Depth about how humor is the most important component of his character, and why it makes him immune, in many ways, from being boxed into storyline corners a fate that can sometimes befall other daytime villains.
"Bill just really has fun messing with people," the actor says with a chuckle. "I see him as a sort of pirate, but the pirate that people love. He's an antihero."
Check out the latest issue, on sale now, to find out which legendary characters in film and television history have inspired Diamont's portrayal. (We guarantee a few will surprise you!) ]]>

In a move almost as shocking as the surprise twist during today's episode of THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL, Ashlyn Pearce (Aly) has announced that she's exiting the soap. "Thank you all for the love & support," the popular young actress posted on Twitter after Aly seemingly died following a confrontation with Steffy on today's show. "Aly Forrester was a role I feel so blessed to have been able to play. #TeamAly."
Pearce joined the B&B cast in 2013 when the role of Thorne and Darla's daughter was aged to be a teenager. Tell us in the comments below, are you sad to see Pearce exit as Aly?]]>
You might recall that AS THE WORLD TURNS star Martha Byrne (Lily/Rose) was working on a new Web series called WEIGHT, but haven't heard anything about it in a while. Well, we're happy to announce that the series will premiere its first episode on Sunday, August 2, at 8:00 p.m. ET!
WEIGHT is a sly comedy that follows Byrne's Claire, a housewife who lost 100 pounds in a reality TV weight loss competition to find that her entire life has changed along with her appearance. It co-stars Byrne's longtime pal Allison Smith (from THE WEST WING and KATE & ALLIE) as well as Trent Dawson (Henry, ATWT) and Kate West, the daughter of Maura West (Ava, GENERAL HOSPITAL; Carly, ATWT) and Scott DeFrietas (Andy, ATWT).
Viewers can join the "Virtual Release Party" with Byrne, other cast members and special guests by using the hashtag #weightcrazy and by following @weighttheseries on Twitter starting at 7:00 p.m. ET on August 2. You can watch a trailer by clicking here and a clip by clicking here, and make sure to visit www.weighttheseries.com to watch the show when it debuts!]]>
After more than a year away, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL's Thorne returns on Thursday, July 23, to discover that while he's been holding down the Forrester fashion fort in Paris, his daughter, Aly, has been spiraling out of control!
B&B vet Winsor Harmon (Thorne) tells Soaps In Depth he's thrilled to be back for such an emotionally intense storyline. "Thorne has been living in Paris running International," explains the actor. "While he generally knows what's been going on at Forrester on a day-to-day basis, as far as personal things relating to his family, he's not fully aware of what's been happening."
Aly's erratic (some might say psychotic) behavior in recent weeks is something Thorne's going to have to deal with as a concerned father, but exactly how he'll help resolve his daughter's troubling behavior remains to be seen. "It all stems from her issues with Taylor," he explains. "Aly's always going to have issues surrounding the death of her mother, and Thorne is going to have to keep close tabs on that."
Thorne's homecoming, consequently, isn't likely to be a happy one, but Harmon says reprising the character has been nothing short of amazing. "B&B has been my home for eighteen years, and that's not something that's easy to walk away from or turn your back on," he says. "I never take it for granted. It's always a privilege to be involved with this show, and I'm smart enough to appreciate it!"
AS THE WORLD TURNS stars Terri Conn (Katie) and husband Austin Peck (Brad; ex-Austin, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) welcomed their second child together over the weekend! The couple announced on Twitter that Conn had given birth to Morgan Theresa Peck on July 18. (You can see an adorable pic of the newborn here.)
The new addition joins the couple's daughter, Keira (2 1/2), as well as Conn's daughter, Julia, and Peck's sons, Aidan and Roman. Congratulations!]]>
Matthew Ashford (ex-Tom, GENERAL HOSPITAL; ex-Stephen, ONE LIFE TO LIVE; ex-Jack, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) and actress/teacher Lana Buss are expecting their second child in November. "It's gonna be a girl," he reveals to Soaps In Depth. The new addition will join big brother Henry (2) and Ashford's daughters, Grace and Emma, with his former wife, Christina Saffran.]]>
In the upcoming film, A Million Happy Nows, Crystal Chappell (Olivia, GUIDING LIGHT; ex-Carly, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) stars as Lainey Allen, a popular soap opera actress, who exits her daytime drama after finding out she has early-onset Alzheimer's disease. She and her publicist/partner Eva, played by Jessica Leccia (Natalia, GL) move to a beach house overlooking the Pacific Ocean as the couple deals with the devastating diagnosis. Chappell, who also serves as a producer on the project, says the film's soap opera scenes were shot late last year at her old stomping grounds the DAYS studios in Burbank!
"First, we were going to build a soap opera studio in another studio, but I told [DAYS' co-executive producer] Greg Meng about this film and that I needed a studio," the Emmy-winning actress/producer tells Soaps In Depth. Another co-executive producer of DAYS, Albert Alarr, directed the film, and was helpful in securing the studio space, too. "It was totally fun shooting there," Chappell declares. "Everyone was so accommodating. We could have shot it elsewhere, but filming at DAYS gave us an authentic vibe."
A Million Happy Nows both sheds a light on Alzheimer's and tells the love story of how Lainey and Eva deal with this tragic twist of fate, which, it turns out Lainey knew there was a 50/50 chance of happening. The film's cast is jam-packed with familiar faces from the soap opera world including Susan Seaforth Hayes (Julie, DAYS; ex-Joanna, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS), Robert Gant (David, Y&R), Hillary B. Smith (ex-Stacy, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL; Margo, AS THE WORLD TURNS), and Michael Corbett (ex-David, Y&R).
"We needed someone to play Lainey's rival and someone suggested Susan," says Chappell. "I reached out to her and she said yes. We did some good old soapy catfight scenes that you'll see. It was so much fun. She is so talented."
As a fan of GL's "Otalia" storyline, the film's writer, Marisa Calin, specifically wrote the movie with Chappell and Leccia in mind. "That's really flattering," notes Chappell. "It's important to not only bring more awareness to this disease, but to also show that it can [afflict] same sex couples."
Stay tuned for an upcoming feature on Chappell in the magazine for more on the project, but In the meantime, you can check out a preview of the film here.]]>
Music superstar Dolly Parton is producing a TV movie for NBC based on her life called Coat Of Many Colors, and revealed today on THE TODAY SHOW that she has selected Alyvia Alyn Lind (Faith, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS) to play herself as a child in the film!
Parton's 1971 song tells the story of how her mother stitched rags together into a coat for her daughter telling the biblical story of Joseph and his Coat Of Many Colors. But when the excited girl shows off her new coat at school, her classmates make fun of her for wearing rags.
Luckily, because Y&R uses both Lind and Mckenna Grace as Nick and Sharon's daughter, Grace can easily fill in while Lind is off shooting with Parton. When an airdate is announced for Coat Of Many Colors, we'll let you know. But in the meantime, you can watch Parton surprise the 7-year-old actress with the news in the video below!
In the whimsical new Internet drama, WINTERTHORNE (premiering Thursday, August 27) star Martha Madison (ex-Belle, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) is set to find herself in some truly sticky situations -- and they don't come from the sweet treats that her powerful clan makes. "The family [and its business] is run by its women, and they've reached a crossroads," explains creator Michael Caruso (DEVANITY), who also plays Madison's husband, Victor, in the show. "Martha's complicated character, Miranda, is taking over, and we'll see over the course of four episodes where she started from and some of the good and not-so-good choices she's made in order to control her family."
Look for Madison to turn in the kind of dark performances that match her gothic wardrobe and to play opposite fellow soap veterans Kevin Spirtas (ex-Craig, DAYS), GENERAL HOSPITAL's Kirsten Storms (Maxie) and Kathleen Gati (Obrecht), Linda Gray (ex-Priscilla, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL), Gordon Thompson (DYNASTY), and John-Paul Lavoisier (Rex, ONE LIFE TO LIVE).
For more on the new series, check out Madison's Catching Up feature in the new issue of CBS Soaps In Depth, on sale now. For more on the unique production, which used 5,000 marshmallows in a scene, pick up the issue that's on sale beginning Monday, August 17, for exclusive, behind the scenes photos! ]]>
"When you're a mom, you don't have time to think about any of that stuff," she chuckles. "I think when you're younger especially being an actor there's a lot of focus on looks, but it's not so important to me anymore."

Tamara Braun (ex-Carly, GENERAL HOSPITAL) will reprise her role of DAYS OF OUR LIVES Mob princess Ava Vitali later this year. TV Insider's Michael Logan broke the news that the actress, who won a Daytime Emmy for her portrayal in 2009, has already begun taping and will return to the screen on December 9. Braun also briefly appeared on DAYS as Nicole's sister, Taylor, in 2011 when she assumed the role from fellow GH alum Natalia Livingston (ex-Emily), and was ALL MY CHILDREN's Reese.

Alec Baldwin sells baseball caps by peeing on John Krasinski's floor
Sep 22, 2011, 6:00 PM EDT
I'm not sure how Alec Baldwin peeing on your living room floor is supposed to sell baseball caps, but then again, I never really have understood advertising. Maybe this is genius.
Ah, screw it. I'd watch Alec Baldwin in just about anything, so here you go. And don't get offended at this: it's purely fiction. I mean really: the Red Sox winning something? C'mon!

I for one thinks this whole line of commercials has been great.
And I pretty much can't stand anything to do with the Yankees or the Redsox.

Sometimes the simplest things are the most lasting and memorable, the Topan Pendant being a brilliant example. It was the first mass produced lamp by Verner Panton, later to be followed by the FlowerPot. Topan's simplicity and coolness proves to be of lasting value. Topan was originally designed for the hotel and restaurant Astoria in Trondheim, Norway, in 1960. Here, Panton used his textile designs Geometry I to IV for floors, walls and ceilings in order to give the room a uniform image. The Topan pendants hung all over, dividing large rooms into smaller and more intimate spaces.

Sorry 'bout the failure to fail – it ain't happening. Expectations for the demise of humanity are greatly exaggerated. The destruction of Mother Gaia has yet to be brought about through mankind's abusive exploitation. Despite our every attempt to exterminate homo sapiens as a species, we remain.
Why this constant failure to fail? Where have all the scary monsters gone – there is only so much room under the bed!
The human population has stabilized across much of the planet: Europe, Asia, the Americas (exception, USA). Only northern Africa and the Middle East continue to grow significantly. While predictions are a cult unto themselves, the global human population may cease to expand within a generation. Its growth rate has declined precipitously. The general statement (much overused) of a married couple with 2.1 children being the 'point of perfect replication' is becoming the norm. The figures for Japan, Europe and Russia are well below this: 1.4 – 1.8, while China is at 2.0. As people die, fewer are being replaced by newborns. Simplistic, yes, but valid.
Natural resources have yet to approach the point of exhaustion – far from it. We extract more from our Earth than ever while discovering more. Pricing mechanisms – supply and demand and efficiencies of design and use – turn the tide away from exhaustion to excess. Crude oil production is at 88M bbls/day and the price has collapsed as new supplies acquired at lower cost flood the market. Re-cycling has reduced demand for a myriad of basic materials. Better automotive technology means we drive more miles, exhaust less as ownership costs decline.
The horrors of biotech – epitomized by GMO – are really our very best friends. 'Food is more abundant today than ever before in history', according to Ronald Bailey, author of The End of Doom. Global food production has more than tripled over the past 50 years, while the population has simply doubled. The newest edition of efficient food production is far more significant. It allows the introduction of Vitamin A to remove rickets from the global population, along with childhood blindness. GMO rice and grains use far less fertilizer and water with a concomitant increase in acreage productivity.
The Green Revolution of Norm Borlaug exemplifies these trends. Biotech enabled by more efficient exploitation of natural resources has allowed humanity to grow – and do so more peacefully and healthier and wealthier.
The Big Bad Wolf – whose name constantly changes from global cooling to global warming to climate change – is nowhere to be found. 24 years of steady to slightly declining global temperatures since the last great volcanism, Mt. Pinatubo in 1991, are directly associated with a 30% increase in atmospheric CO2. Where's the beef? 'Climatologists' look under the ocean and under the bed, to no avail. The science is settled: it is not science but religion.
Oddly enough, as food and health availability improve, education and human rights often follow suit. A wealth increase from starvation ($2/day) to subsistence ($4/day) makes a huge difference. Augment this with improved agricultural tools, power sourcing and basic medicine for pre-natal, infant and women's health. Education becomes affordable and desirable. Stable home and house encourage savings. This can lead to inexpensive communications tools – cell phones -that empower farmers and merchants. Movement from the rural to the urban world ensues, as does closer ties and communication between citizens. This can lead to nascent capitalism (it can just as easily lead to nepotism in its thousand forms). Environmental awareness, known as conservation, becomes an acceptable norm as wealth grows. Family size is reduced, initially because fewer surviving workers are required; ultimately because young couples begin to factor in the cost of children to their world views.
Fear is the only selling point for the pessimists. Facts simply refuse to support their way of life. Facts are dangerous because they tell the truth. Fear is far more dangerous because it manipulates the truth.
Each time you read or hear of a 'well founded' fear, ask yourself, 'what are they not saying when they say this?' Recall Sherlock Holmes in The Hound of the Baskervilles. His clue was the silent watchdog.

What the hell is Micro Four Thirds?
If you've been looking into upgrading your camera recently, then chances are you will have come across the seemingly baffling phrase "Micro Four Thirds".
Retailers and tech websites have been throwing the three-word moniker around with gay abandon, apparently under the misguided impression that anyone actually knows what they're talking about. So, what the hell is it?
Well, it might sound like a tiny version of a fraction, but Micro Four Thirds is actually a rather clever camera standard created by Panasonic and Olympus that makes it possible to dramatically reduce the size of digital interchangable lens cameras while still retaining picture quality. This is made possible because, unlike DSLR cameras, the Micro Four Thirds system doesn't use a mirror to take pictures which in turn means that the camera chassis can be made much smaller.
Micro Four Thirds has the same image sensor size and specification as its established predecessor - the Four Thirds system. Whereas the older Four Thirds system could only offer pictures of a 4:3 aspect ratio (the same shape as a pre-widescreen TV display), Micro Four Thirds cameras offer this along with the 3:2 ratio of conventional 35mm films, as well as 16:9 widescreen. With a bigger sensor than compacts, comes better image quality and better performance in low light which, of course, means less time having to rely on the flash. The Micro Four Thirds sensor is still not as large as DSLRs though, so you're unlikely to get quite such top-of-the-line-results.
On the outside, the most obvious characteristic of Micro Four Thirds cameras is that they're svelter than Four Thirds and DSLRs, but are still chunkier and heavier than compact cameras. Still with us? Good. So, what you're getting is something closer to the size of a point and press, with imaging power nearer a full-on DSLR.
As it happens, Panasonic and Olympus aren't the only companies that make mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, but they are the only ones using the patented Micro Four Thirds system. Both Sony with its NEX cameras and Samsung with its NX versions also work on the same principles, but with slightly different bits and bobs.
There are plenty more advantages and disadvantages of Micro Four Thirds-type cameras compared to both compacts and DSLRs which we can bang on about at length in an article which offers more depth and probably a few more pictures as well. To cut an extremely long and convoluted story short though - if you're after top, top notch photo quality, then a DSLR is your best bet.
However, if you find those too expensive or cumbersome to carry around, or you just want something better at taking photos than a compact, then a Micro Four Thirds camera offers a you a way to do that. It's significantly higher quality and for only a slightly higher price.
Get it now? Is there anything else you want unravelling? Let us know in the comments.

"But Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kansas) said this summer that he believed the U.S. should move the embassy as a matter of principle. Israel is the only country in the world where the U.S. does not have its embassy in the capital, he noted. Although some say such a move would cause problems, the U.S. needs to take a stand and say it puts its embassies in the capital of countries."[Black culture museum moves forward:][2] "A group of prominent African-Americans will begin fundraising in earnest soon for a museum that will chronicle everything from slavery to the Harlem Renaissance to November's election of U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, a black Chicagoan," reports USA Today. Brownback was one of the leading voices in Congress in support of the museum, the paper says.Dennis Moore links [The Finish Line:][3] "Predictions of a polarized and partisan electorate that would oust candidates who were sitting in the 'wrong' districts just never materialized," reports GovExec.com.

But Smith, now a husband and father who just buried his own dad a year ago, has confused growing up with giving in. He's always claimed to be a sellout, the defense mechanism of an independent filmmaker who came of age well above ground, but Jersey Girl feels like the ultimate act of surrender, a product as generic as white-label beer. Everything about the movie, from its premise of a single father raising a kid all alone to its school-musical finale, tastes like leftovers.
The movie opens a decade ago, with Manhattan music-biz publicist Ollie Trinke (Ben Affleck) romancing a woman named Gertrude (Jennifer Lopez, who has been all but eradicated from the movie and its advertising). Lopez is killed off early in the movie, during a childbirth scene that has all the emotional impact of an actor sighing offscreen.
Ollie, a powerful and ostensibly rich man, can't even change a diaper or hire a nanny. He leaves baby Gertie with his father (George Carlin), who loves the company but loathes the responsibility. When he can take it no more, the senior Trinke forces Ollie to take the kid -- who, of course, ruins a big event and gets daddy fired, forcing baby and father to move back to Jersey. We're left gasping as the clichés take up all the air in the room.
Seven years later, Ollie is driving a garbage truck and still living with his father and Gertie, now played by Raquel Castro, a dead ringer for Lopez plucked from the Precious Movie Kid bin. Ollie wants his old life back -- he takes an interview with Matt Damon and Jason Lee in one terrific scene -- but he's torn between the city and Liv Tyler's Maya, who works in a video store that carries only Miramax titles, one of Smith's few in-joke indulgences.
Jersey Girl is the first Smith movie to look professional -- it was shot by one-time Robert Altman collaborator Vilmos Zsigmond, who convinced Smith it's actually OK to move the camera -- but that's often its problem; it's too polished. Even the movies Smith made solely for fetishists had a ramshackle appeal in their sloppiness, their energy and their sneering determination to stay away from cheap, manipulative sentimentality. But everyone in the syrupy Jersey Girl looks on the verge of tearing up and breaking down; Affleck delivers a tear-stained monologue about life and death and second chances like a man who's never cried in his life. Smith used to make movies to make fun of movies like Jersey Girl. Now he's just another guy working the assembly line.
