- Towards mapping the extent of irrigation in the last century : time series of irrigated area per country (2008)
- A data set of annual values of area equipped for irrigation for all 236 countries in the world during the time period 1900 - 2003 was generated. The basis for this data product was information available through various online data bases and from other published materials. The complete time series were then constructed around the reported data applying six statistical methods. The methods are discussed in terms of reliability and data uncertainties. The total area equipped for irrigation in the world in 1900 was 53.2 million hectares. Irrigation was mainly practiced in all the arid regions of the globe and in paddy rice areas of South and East Asia. In some temperate countries in Western Europe irrigation was practiced widely on pastures and meadows. The time series suggest a modest rate of increase of irrigated areas in the first half of the 20th century followed by a more dynamic development in the second half. The turn of the century is characterized by an overall consolidating trend resulting at a total of 285.8 million hectares in 2003. The major contributing countries have changed little throughout the century. This data product is regarded as a preliminary result toward an ongoing effort to develop a detailed data set and map of areas equipped for irrigation in the world over the 20th century using sub-national statistics and historical irrigation maps.

- The Global Crop Water Model (GCWM) : documentation and first results for irrigated crops (2008)
- A new global crop water model was developed to compute blue (irrigation) water requirements and crop evapotranspiration from green (precipitation) water at a spatial resolution of 5 arc minutes by 5 arc minutes for 26 different crop classes. The model is based on soil water balances performed for each crop and each grid cell. For the first time a new global data set was applied consisting of monthly growing areas of irrigated crops and related cropping calendars. Crop water use was computed for irrigated land and the period 1998 – 2002. In this documentation report the data sets used as model input and methods used in the model calculations are described, followed by a presentation of the first results for blue and green water use at the global scale, for countries and specific crops. Additionally the simulated seasonal distribution of water use on irrigated land is presented. The computed model results are compared to census based statistical information on irrigation water use and to results of another crop water model developed at FAO.

- Global dataset of monthly growing areas of 26 irrigated crops : version 1.0 (2008)
- A data set of monthly growing areas of 26 irrigated crops (MGAG-I) and related crop calendars (CC-I) was compiled for 402 spatial entities. The selection of the crops consisted of all major food crops including regionally important ones (wheat, rice, maize, barley, rye, millet, sorghum, soybeans, sunflower, potatoes, cassava, sugar cane, sugar beets, oil palm, rapeseed/canola, groundnuts/peanuts, pulses, citrus, date palm, grapes/vine, cocoa, coffee), major water-consuming crops (cotton), and unspecified other crops (other perennial crops, other annual crops, managed grassland). The data set refers to the time period 1998-2002 and has a spatial resolution of 5 arc minutes by 5 arc minutes which is 8 km by 8 km at the equator. This is the first time that a data set of cell-specific irrigated growing areas of irrigated crops with this spatial resolution was created. The data set is consistent to the irrigated area and water use statistics of the AQUASTAT programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) (http://www.fao.org/ag/agl/aglw/aquastat/main/index.stm) and the Global Map of Irrigation Areas (GMIA) (http://www.fao.org/ag/agl/aglw/aquastat/irrigationmap/index.stm). At the cell-level it was tried to maximise consistency to the cropland extent and cropland harvested area from the Department of Geography and Earth System Science Program of the McGill University at Montreal, Quebec, Canada and the Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment (SAGE) of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, USA (http://www.geog.mcgill.ca/~nramankutty/ Datasets/Datasets.html and http://geomatics.geog.mcgill.ca/~navin/pub/Data/175crops2000/). The consistency between the grid product and the input data was quantified. MGAG-I and CC-I are fully consistent to each other on entity level. For input data other than CC-I, the consistency of MGAG-I on cell level was calculated. The consistency of MGAG-I with respect to the area equipped for irrigation (AEI) of GMIA and to the cropland extent of SAGE was characterised by the sum of the cell-specific maximum difference between the MGAG-I monthly total irrigated area and the reference area when the latter was exceeded in the grid cell. The consistency of the harvested area contained in MGAG-I with respect to SAGE harvested area was characterised by the crop-specific sum of the cell-specific difference between MGAG-I harvested area and the SAGE harvested area when the latter was exceeded in the grid cell. In all three cases, the sums are the excess areas that should not have been distributed under the assumption that the input data were correct. Globally, this cell-level excess of MGAG-I as compared to AEI is 331,304 ha or only about 0.12 % of the global AEI of 278.9 Mha found in the original grid. The respective cell-level excess of MGAG-I as compared to the SAGE cropland extent is 32.2 Mha, corresponding to about 2.2 % of the total cropland area. The respective cell-level excess of MGAG-I as compared to the SAGE harvested area is 27 % of the irrigated harvested area, or 11.5 % of the AEI. In a further step that will be published later also rainfed areas were compiled in order to form the Global data set of monthly irrigated and rainfed crop areas around the year 2000 (MIRCA2000). The data set can be used for global and continental-scale studies on food security and water use. In the future, it will be improved, e.g. with a better spatial resolution of crop calendars and an improved crop distribution algorithm. The MIRCA2000 data set, its full documentation together with future updates will be freely available through the following long-term internet site: http://www.geo.uni-frankfurt.de/ipg/ag/dl/forschung/MIRCA/index.html. The research presented here was funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG) within the framework of the research project entitled "Consistent assessment of global green, blue and virtual water fluxes in the context of food production: regional stresses and worldwide teleconnections". The authors thank Navin Ramankutty and Chad Monfreda for making available the current SAGE datasets on cropland extent (Ramankutty et al., 2008) and harvested area (Monfreda et al., 2008) prior to their publication.

- Irrigation in Africa, Europe and Latin America : update of the Digital Global Map of Irrigation Areas to version 4 (2006)
- The Land and Water Development Division of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, are cooperating in the development of a global irrigation-mapping facility. This report describes an update of the Digital Global Map of Irrigation Areas for the continents of Africa and Europe as well as for the countries Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay in Latin America. For this update, an new inventory of subnational irrigation statistics was compiled. The reference year for the statistics is 2000. Adding up the irrigated areas per country as documented in the report gives a total of 48.8 million ha while the total area equipped for irrigation at the global scale is 278.8 million ha. The total number of subnational units in the inventory used for this update is 16 822 while the number of subnational units in the global inventory increased to 26 909. In order to distribute the irrigation statistics per subnational unit, digital spatial data layers and printed maps were used. Irrigation maps were derived from project reports, irrigation subsector studies, and books related to irrigation and drainage. These maps were digitized and compared with satellite images of many regions. In areas without spatial information on irrigated areas, additional information was used to locate areas where irrigation is likely, such as land-cover and land-use maps that indicate agricultural areas or areas with crops that are usually grown under irrigation.

- A digital global map of artificially drained agricultural areas : documentation (2005)
- Artificial drainage of agricultural land, for example with ditches or drainage tubes, is used to avoid water logging and to manage high groundwater tables. Among other impacts it influences the nutrient balances by increasing leaching losses and by decreasing denitrification. To simulate terrestrial transport of nitrogen on the global scale, a digital global map of artificially drained agricultural areas was developed. The map depicts the percentage of each 5' by 5' grid cell that is equipped for artificial drainage. Information on artificial drainage in countries or sub-national units was mainly derived from international inventories. Distribution to grid cells was based, for most countries, on the "Global Croplands Dataset" of Ramankutty et al. (1998) and the "Digital Global Map of Irrigation Areas" of Siebert et al. (2005). For some European countries the CORINE land cover dataset was used instead of the both datasets mentioned above. Maps with outlines of artificially drained areas were available for 6 countries. The global drainage area on the map is 167 Mio hectares. For only 11 out of the 116 countries with information on artificial drainage areas, sub-national information could be taken into account. Due to this coarse spatial resolution of the data sources, we recommended to use the map of artificially drained areas only for continental to global scale assessments. This documentation describes the dataset, the data sources and the map generation, and it discusses the data uncertainty.

SLEMP—Motorists on KY Highway 699 should expect minor delays as a bridge has been temporarily reduced to one lane for minor repairs.
According to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's Department of Highways District 10 out of Jackson, a bridge at milepoint 7.5 located in the Beehive community of Perry County, near Leatherwood, had one lane closed on Aug. 13 due to a hole in the deck of the bridge. Temporary traffic lights have been placed at either end of the bridge to control traffic.
"Personnel from the transportation cabinet's central office in Frankfort evaluated the damage last week and developed a repair plan. A contract for restoration of the bridge deck will be advertised in September with an expedited completion date to ensure the work is done by the end of this year," the department said in a press release on Thursday.
Until repairs are finished, the department reminds motorists to slow down and obey the traffic signals.

Press Release
WJMU garners finalist nominations for Intercollegiate Broadcasting System Awards
Millikin University's 89.5 WJMU "The Quad" has garnered two finalist nominations for the 2014 Intercollegiate Broadcasting System (IBS) Awards. WJMUreceived a nomination for "Best Radio Drama" for its production of the75th anniversary of "War of the Worlds," and a nomination for "Best Spot News." The winners will be announced during the 74th Annual IBS Conference held March 7-9, 2014 in New York City, N.Y.
"It's fantastic to see Millikin recognized on a national level for elements ofour performance learning platform," said Sam Meister, Millikin lecturer of communication and WJMU station manager. "Student broadcasters at WJMU have an opportunity to gain professional experience, but also towork on projects that are completely different from what they might bedoing at commercial stations. College radio gives them a forum in which to both work creatively and build a professional production portfolio."
WJMU's programming features shows that focus on sports, music and news as well as international programming that highlights Spanish, Hindi cinema and anime culture. Another element the station offers is the ability to play vinyl records on the air and feature music from bands that made radio relevant in society today. The station currently operates in lower Richards Treat University Center (RTUC) on Millikin University's campus.
"I've been at WJMU for the past three and a half years and have worked incredibly hard to improve Millikin's radio station as much as possible," said Ben Murrow, a senior communication major and WJMU program director, from Wheaton, Ill. "As a small college radio station,our disc jockeys have the freedom to produce creative and unique content."
(Pictured: Sam Deary)
Intercollegiate Broadcasting System, Inc., is a not-for-profit education association and foundation that serves not-for-profit education affiliated high school radio, college radio and community stations and streaming/webcasters.

Aldo revealed during Tuesdays Q&A with the fans in Barueri, Brazil that he asked the UFC to move up to the lightweight division and challenge Pettis. However, according to the 145-pound champion, UFC president Dana White didnt accept his offer.
"Many people talked about moving up (to 155 pounds), and Ive asked for that," Aldo said. "But Andre (Pederneiras, his coach) and Dana (White) said it wasnt the right moment. Moving up to lightweight is closer and closer. When they think its time to move up, Ill do it no problem."
"Many fans talked about it, and were waiting to do this super fight. But they matched him (against Josh Thomson)," he continued. "If it was up to me it would have already happened at any weight. Im an employee and I dont see any problem with that. I wanted (to fight Pettis) at 155 pounds, of course. He has his title and he wouldnt be able to steal mine (laughs)."
Aldo is ranked number one in the featherweight division since he beat Mike Brown for the WEC title on November 2009 and has said many times he would move up to the 155 division in the future, pending the approval of his manager Andre Pederneiras.
The Brazilian never called out opponents, but changed his style a bit when asked by the fans who he would like to fight next in the UFC.
"I never chose opponents, but I can say one name now, and its Pettis, for all the talk that has happened," he said. "He would be the right person for me to fight today. It would be even better to fight him at lightweight so I wouldnt need to cut weight (laughs)."

Senator uses old-style filibuster on CIA nominee
WASHINGTON WASHINGTON (AP) A Republican senator and tea party favorite from Kentucky used an old-style filibuster lasting nearly 13 hours to take control of the chamber and block Senate confirmation of John Brennan's nomination to be CIA director.
Sen. Rand Paul ended his filibuster Thursday shortly after midnight, but Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, also a Kentucky Republican, said he would continue to oppose Brennan's confirmation and resist ending the debate on President Barack Obama's nominee to lead the spy agency.
Paul's performance, which centered on questions about the possible use of drones against targets in the United States, clearly energized a number of his GOP colleagues, who came to the floor in a show of support and to share in the speaking duties. And even as the night progressed, Paul appeared invigorated despite being on his feet for so long. Actual talking filibusters have become rare in the Senate, where the rules are typically used in procedural ways to block the other party's agenda.
After Paul yielded the floor, Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., filed a motion to cut off debate on Brennan's nomination, setting up a vote for later this week.
Paul, a critic of Obama's drone policy, started just before noon Wednesday by demanding the president or Attorney General Eric Holder issue a statement assuring that the aircraft would not be used in the United States to kill terrorism suspects who are U.S. citizens. But by the time he left the Senate floor, Paul said he'd received no response.
Paul wasn't picky about the format, saying at one point he'd be happy with a telegram or a Tweet. Paul said he recognized he can't stop Brennan from being confirmed. But the nomination was the right vehicle for a debate over what the Obama White House believes are the limits of the federal government's ability to conduct lethal operations against suspected terrorists, he said.
"No president has the right to say he is judge, jury and executioner," Paul said.

This kit from BRS gets you off and running quickly and the online calculators make dosing up and getting things inline much easier.

I would recommend watching the video online to help clear up anything. Must Have By Andrew on 1/28/2014 Andrew would recommend this product to a friend I think that this is a must have product after using this for a couple months. The thing I love about this is I can leave for a week and not worry about dosing my tank. It is all taken care of. It takes a little fine tuning to get it dialed in but is totally worth it. This kit keeps my take parameters stable. Great Product By frederick on 12/10/2013 frederick would recommend this product to a friend Great package and I love these dosing pumps they works great we the reefkeeper Awesome Products By James on 12/3/2013 James would recommend this product to a friend I haven't set my dosers up yet, but I can say the 2 part system is awesome. If you can make a cup of coffee, you can definitely use this product. Mixes very well, and dosing is a breeze using the reef calculator. Make sure to change the calculator to dKH if you aren't using the meq/l. I personally think the dKH should be set as the standard and all others follow. Great customer service What more would you want By Derek on 11/29/2013 Derek would recommend this product to a friend This package is the cats meow. Comes with everything and the instructions are easy to follow. These are great to use with a controller or even a digital timer. No question it's great. By Cory on 10/18/2013 Cory would recommend this product to a friend My review is one of many glowing reviews. So it is obvious that this is a great product. This took the headache out of dosing for me. I use the dosing pumps with a Reefkeeper and it is super easy to manage. The two parts mixtures mix well and BRS has included great instructions. I think one of the biggest selling points for me is the fact that BRS has the dosing calculator on the website. Some days I just don't feel like doing algebra when I am exhausted, the calculator makes it incredibly simple. Last but not least, BRS support is responsive when I do need help. Better then I expected By Stylianfire on 7/30/2013 Stylianfire would recommend this product to a friend Very simple product but works wonderfully. I have it paired up with my Apex JR and so far its working great. I was gonna buy something similar from Ebay that is made in China but opted to buy from a company I trust (BRS)... Makes Getting Into Dosing Simple By David on 6/21/2013 David would recommend this product to a friend What can I say? Everything you need to get started on two part dosing is included here. The instructions along with the calculator on the BRS site and you will be dosing in no time. The only thing that I suggest BRS include with this package is a set of suction cups for airline tubes to direct the dosing lines into your sump. Still a 5 star item though! Works as expected By Jeff on 6/20/2013 Jeff would recommend this product to a friend Took about hour to setup and test. Love it works as stated. No more manually adding Alk and Cal! Saved my sanity!! By Alex on 6/12/2013 Alex would recommend this product to a friend Finally after months of manual dosing and chasing test results, Ca and Alk swings I purchased this and got my parameters where I wanted them within 5 days. Great product. Pumps are virtually silent and seem well constructed. Chemicals seem to dissolve well. If you are serious about the hobby this is a no brainer. Autopilot for your tank! By AC on 5/15/2013 AC would recommend this product to a friend All I have to do is fill up my jugs once every 35 days. Great Stuff By Warren on 5/13/2013 Warren would recommend this product to a friend Very easy to use and set up. Love it. Dosing By Robert on 5/11/2013 Robert would recommend this product to a friend Saves money in th long run to make your own supplies. Easy to make and use. Just test, calculate, and set timers! Very good product - good package By Jeff on 5/1/2013 Jeff would recommend this product to a friend This kit came with everything I needed and I must say that the pumps are top notch. I would suggest that you "calibrate" the pumps as the instructions suggest. I found mine dose 1.5 and 1.8ml per minute rather than the 1.1 advertised. A reef controller to go along with this is not a must have, but a major convenience. Love it By Skimdude on 4/8/2013 Skimdude would recommend this product to a friend The pumps work great. I have them hooked up to the apex controller. The mix is very simple and dissolves fast and easy. I just hooked it up today and I will write another review after I have been using for a month makes dosing easy By Andy C on 4/8/2013 Andy C would recommend this product to a friend I've been running this system for about three weeks and things are slowly coming into balance. I had high calcium and low alk so I'm looking forward to being able to keep things balanced without dosing by hand. The instructions were veyr clear and it was very easy to get the system set up. Great product. By Chris on 4/2/2013 Chris would recommend this product to a friend Easy to use and it comes with everything i needed. A No Brainer! By The Reef Spot on 3/2/2013 The Reef Spot would recommend this product to a friend If you keep SPS, You need this. It is a No Brainer. As with any other branded BRS product, the performance is over the top. Complete with instructions so clear, my 5 year old could set these up. great product at a great price By Mike on 2/4/2013 Mike would recommend this product to a friend I bought this dosing kit to replace daily dosing. The pumps are easy to install but the cups they say to use for calibration are pretty much useless. measures in 10 ml increments. didn't matter though, it dosed roughly what it said it would. the brs online calculator seems pretty accurate. the amount of mix you get with the 1 gallon mix is awesome. for the price you pay for it you will get what appears to be 4 x the amount of the premixed you would buy. mixing the chemicals is dead easy and mixes well. looking forward to seeing the long term results of the brs 2 part. Great Product from a Great Company By Dolmo5000 on 1/10/2013 Dolmo5000 would recommend this product to a friend I'm running an 80g total system with mostly sps and clams. This package was exactly what my tank needed. The stability it provides amazing. All corals and clams are growing and thriving like never before. I'll keep running the BRS dosing system for as long as possible . It wont be a happy day when I have to change to a cal reactor.

Keep your skin fresh and renewed with Snowberry Exfoliators, encouraging your skin's natural growth process. The average skin cell lives for approximately 30 days, from the time it is created deep within the dermis layer of the skin tissues until it reaches the surface of the skin, where it eventually dies and is shed. This process, called exfoliation, is part of the skin cell replacement process and is necessary to keep the complexion fresh, constantly renewed and repaired, to maintain its youthful appearance.
To help make the skin cell turnover process as efficient as possible, Snowberry Exfoliators help to gently remove the dying and dead skin cells still clinging to the surface. This not only keeps the skin looking smooth and clear, but makes way for new, younger and healthy skin cells to come to the fore. A healthy skin cell turnover also helps repair and reduce the appearance of skin imperfections, scars, lines and wrinkles. The formulas of Snowberry Exfoliators include a rich suite of natural botanical extracts, to ensure that the exfoliation process is gentle and effective while they provide nourishing and protective benefits.
Skin renews itself through the cycle of new cell growth and exfoliation of old cells. The natural ingredients in Snowberry Exfoliators help to promote this process, gently but effectively encouraging a healthy skin cell turnover. As a result, the complexion is kept fresh, renewed and glowing. Skin imperfections, including lines and wrinkles, are diminished as new, healthy cells come into place, making every day a new beginning.
Providing a gentle scrubbing action as well as botanical extracts to encourage the skin's own natural process, Snowberry Nourishing Exfoliator turns skin renewal into a relaxing and refreshing experience. Powdered mother of pearl, cultured coral and micro granules of ruby gently physically polish away old, dead skin cells while carob sugar encourages exfoliation. While removing old and dead skin cells, the cream also adds an entire range of emollients, including tucum nut oil (from an Amazonian palm tree), illipe butter (made from the nut oil of the Asian Shorea senoptera), meadowfoam seed oil, ucuuba butter (made from the South American tree Virola sebifera) and acai seed oil, all of which provide rich, moisturizing benefits. Extract of sea-buckthorne (Hippophae rhamnoides) promotes tissue regeneration, while the extract of Japanese honeysuckle flowers and stems soothe the skin. Simply massage the cream onto your face in small circular motions for one minute, allowing the particles to scrub your skin as the botanical extracts are absorbed into the tissues. After this relaxing massage, wipe the skin surface with a warm, damp towel. Your skin will look renewed and feel refreshed.

School starts Tuesday, and the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office is preparing for heavy traffic.
According to the BCSO, deputies will be positioned at schools that require additional attention due to an overly abundant amount of traffic steaming from first day attendees, student drivers, and working parents dropping their kids off.
The first day can create a difficult and frustrating scenario for all, with the flow of traffic resulting in congestion. Deputies will be out in full force to help create a smooth and safe transition for all returning to school, BCSO Spokesman Dan Moon said.
Citations will be issued to drivers who fail to adhere to the rules in the school zones.
Deputies will be out patrolling at various schools to monitor traffic flow and help assist with other needs throughout the day Tuesday.
The public is advised to use caution and slow down while approaching School Zones, as some kids will be walking to and from school. Pay close attention to stopped school buses, making sure not to pass in a must stop area, and to adhere to caution lights during school hours.

Former Toledoan starts 'Bert and Ernie' gay rights controversyWritten by Jason Mack | | email@example.com
Gay rights activist and former Toledo resident Lair Scott is attempting to use his take on the sexual orientation of "Sesame Street's" Bert and Ernie as a platform to promote LGBTQ rights.
"It's important, especially for children's education, to understand and to learn that bullying people for being different is wrong," Scott said. "It's important for us to reach this generation of children so in the future we can live a more tolerant lifestyle around the world, not just for the gay and lesbian community but for communities all over."
The petition "Let Bert & Ernie Get Married On Sesame Street" on Change.org started Aug. 4 and collected 9,000 signatures by Aug. 15. The Facebook page "Bert and Ernie Get Married" has more than 7,000 fans. Scott also started a "Sesame Street: Out Bert and Ernie as Gay" petition, but has decided he will cancel it and focus on the original petition.
"I don't think it's necessary to out Bert and Ernie as much that it's extremely important for 'Sesame Street' to educate children and parents about toleration and about the new world," Scott said. "Thousands of children that have two mommies or two daddies watch the program.
"It's important for them to know they aren't any different from any other children having parents."
The story has been picked up by international media, reported by such sources as The Huffington Post, the BBC, the U.K. Daily Mail, ABC News, The Village Voice, USA Today and The Washington Times.
In a statement released Aug. 11 on the "Sesame Street" Facebook page, Sesame Workshop said, "Bert and Ernie are best friends. They were created to teach preschoolers that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves.
"Even though they are identified as male characters and possess many human traits and characteristics (as most 'Sesame Street' Muppets do), they remain puppets, and do not have a sexual orientation."
The statement did not convince Scott.
"I didn't think they were gay; I knew they were gay," he said. "When I was a little boy, I took for granted they were two men living in the same household."
Scott said he was aware of his own bisexuality at a young age.
"I knew I was different when I was 5 years old," Scott said. "Why can't we introduce more characters that are diverse and include the gay and lesbian community? We're working on different types of outlets for kids and teens to be introduced to LGBTQ characters."
Scott's petition has received mixed reactions from the LGBTQ community.
"I would say that a majority of them understand and get it," Scott said. "There is a small minority that hasn't read the petition clearly. They are outraged that I would pick on two iconic characters. They don't understand how important it is to educate children before they become bullies against their own culture."
Scott said he experienced bullying firsthand and speculated on the effect the movement could have had while he was growing up.
"I wouldn't have been gay-bashed at Start High School," Scott said. "I wouldn't have been forced to leave Waite High School because of my activism at such an early age. I was 14 years old when I began my activism in Toledo. Others like me in Toledo could have benefited from seeing more diversity in 'Sesame Street' as a youngster."
Scott thinks the petition will be a success, but not in the way most would expect.
"Bert and Ernie will never be married; that's not going to happen," he said. "If you were to ask me how I would introduce gay and lesbian characters on the show, I could answer that. There would be dozens upon dozens of alternatives and opportunities for that. One of them could be that a mommy and mommy or daddy and daddy couple with children move on Sesame Street.
"That would be the epitome for me, to have real characters and not Muppets portraying gay and lesbian characters. That would be the ultimate thing that should, could and probably will happen on 'Sesame Street' at some point."

Google released a new Google Labs experiment related to image search: Google Image Swirl. The service "organizes image search results based on their visual and semantic similarities and presents them in an intuitive exploratory interface."
Google Image Swirl clusters the top image search results for more than 200,000 queries and it lets you explore the clusters and the relation between images.
"Once you find the group of images you're interested in, you can click on the thumbnail and a cluster of images will "swirl" into view. You can then further explore additional sub-groups within any cluster. Image Swirl expands on technologies developed for Similar Images and Picasa Face Recognition to discern how images should be grouped together and build hierarchies out of these groups. Each thumbnail on the initial results page represents an algorithmically-determined representative group of images with similar appearance and meaning. These aren't just the most relevant images — they are the most relevant groups of images," explains Google.
Try queries like: jaguar, flowers, van Gogh and keep in mind that this is an early demo, so not all the queries will return results.
Google has two other visualization tools: "wonder wheel" for exploring related searches and YouTube Warp, an interactive way to visualize related YouTube videos.

I think I know the reason everyone loves flowy, chiffon skirts and dresses. They look so fun in photos when they're blowing in the wind! Today there was just a slight breeze, but enough to catch my skirt and make it look like I had a long train of chiffon. :)
Tried the sock bun on my hair again, and I have to say this is quickly becoming one of my favorite up styles. It's so easy and chic and I really like playing around with the look. If you haven't tried it or don't know how to do it check here.
I'm thinking of doing another DIY giveaway. Maybe one of my DIY clutches? My goal is 150 followers and 25,000 page views. Even saying those numbers blows my mind. You all are the best readers and I value your love and support so much. I really don't have a lot of girlfriends because I'm a stay at home mom and a lot of my friends aren't married or have children. So you all are my surrogate friends and I'm so thankful for that.
Sorry to get all sappy. Have an incredible weekend everyone! <3

COLUMBIA CITY — A man accused of sexual misconduct with a minor will stand trial Tuesday and Wednesday.
Timothy J. Swihart, 19, of South Whitley was arrested in Jan. 11. He posted bond Jan. 15.
His defense counsel, Jeff Arnold of Columbia City, said some progress has been made between his side and the state, but not enough, so he wants to keep the trial date.
It was alleged, according to case reports, that Swihart had sex with a 14-year-old girl on more than one occasion.
The defense has said that the defendant was home each night the alleged events occurred.

Once again, it is time for the world famous (in my own mind at least) annual tradition of making predictions for the coming year that are Guaranteed to be Wrong, or Your Money Back! This year, I thought I would pay tribute to the greatest musical act still working today: Alison Krauss and Union Station. If you haven't experienced AKUS, please click on the embedded videos; you will become a fan. If you are not a fan, you should be. "But I hate country music" is no excuse when it comes to the awesomeness that is the Hall of Fame lineup of Alison Krauss, Jerry Douglas, Dan Tyminski, Ron Block, and Dan Bales.
My 2012 Predictions turned out to be mostly wrong, which is great news, since many of them were dire indeed. Here's to hoping that my 2013 predictions will perform about the same.
Let's get into it.

Let's face it, you need cigar accessories to fully complement your cigar passion. Cigar smoking is a time honored tradition. Using the right cigar accessories to fully enjoy your cigar should not be overlooked. From the cigar cutting to best cigar lighter, you need to have the tools of the trade to get the most out of every stick. Our experts have hand picked the finest cigar accessories available on the market today so you can light up with style and ease.
How to cut a cigar is both very routine and also very personal. Some cigar aficionados like a V cut notch, while others prefer a flat cut achieved with a guillotine cutter. One thing is for sure, a bad cut can ruin a premium cigar. An Xikar cutter is an excellent choice when looking for both precise operation and value. We carry a full line of Xikar cutters for you to choose from in both a guillotine cutter model and also a V cut model as well.
A cigar torch lighter is the best way to light a cigar. Because you do not want to actually have the flame touch the cigar, you want to roast the tip as you would a marshmallow over a campfire. And like a marshmallow you want to unsure that it is evenly toasted. The same concept applies to lighting a cigar. You want to toast it, gently igniting the tobacco until there is a glowing ring all the way around for an even heating. Once you have achieved this, then you can raise the cigar to your lips and draw.
GothamCigars.com features Xikar lighters, Lotus lighters and a host of other cigar torch lighters. All of our cigar lighters have to meet our exacting standards for usability, durability and style. Happy smoking.

Docusate, which is available without a prescription, is used to treat
and is in a class of laxatives known as stool softeners.
A woman and her newborn infant experienced low blood levels of magnesium, which was possibly due to chronic use of docusate throughout and after pregnancy.1 Controlled research is necessary to determine whether people taking docusate for long periods of time need to supplement magnesium.
Taking docusate increases the amount of potassium excreted from the body in the stool.2 Whether people taking docusate for long periods of time need to increase their intake of potassium is unknown.

Where is it from?
- A Past Owner or User Melbourne, Australia
Tea Kettle - Kettle, Japanese Tea Ceremony, 1970s Reg. No: HT 14240 1
- Summary:
- Alternative Name: 'tetsubin' [in Japanese].
Small iron kettle, miniature size. It is part of a traditional Japanese 'hibati' tea-ceremony set, given to Masumi Hiraga Jackson in the 1970s and brought by her to Australia when she migrated to Australia in 1985. Masumi practices traditional Japanese tea ceremony in Melbourne, as part of her endeavours to maintain Japanese cultural activities in Melbourne. For Masumi, the traditional Japanese tea ceremony is an art form, one of beauty, tranquillity and simplicity of movement. Tea ceremony is the ritualised way of preparing, serving and drinking 'matcha' (powdered green tea). Tea drinking was introduced from China and first practised only by Buddhist priests, and then by samurai warriors. It gradually spread throughout Japan. Greatly influenced by Zen Buddhism, the tea ceremony has in turn influenced many aspects of Japanese culture.
Masumi Hiraga Jackson was born in Nirasaki, Japan in 1935, one of ten children. Her mother Kino was a skilled weaver who wove and sewed silk kimono, a highly regarded skill. Masumi studied at universities in Tokyo (Japanese cultural studies) and Canberra (English and linguistics) and in 1984 married an Australian. She immigrated to Melbourne in 1985 but sadly her husband died two years later. Masumi decided to remain in Australia and immersed herself in traditional Japanese cultural practices such as Noh theatre, Ikebana and Shimotske paper doll-making. She performs and instructs these art forms in Australia and overseas, and returns to Japan every year to see her family, undertake Ikebana lessons, practise her Noh performance and to purchase materials for doll-making.
- Description:
- Circular shaped cast iron kettle with 'C' shaped handle which sits over the top. Kettle is brown coloured, with a textured metal surface.
- Statement Of Significance:
- The significance of this item is its place within a collection which represents the personal and cultural value of maintaining cultural and artistic traditions within a new environment. The act of migration has profound implications for both immigrant and receiving country, with many migrants actively finding ways to introduce their cultural practices in an environment unfamiliar with such activities. This collection can help to explore the successful shift in Australian government policies from the cultural assimilation of the 1950s to the more broadly embracing multicultural policies from the 1970s. Moreover, its significance also lies in the intrinsic artistic value of the finely crafted Shimotsuke dolls, and the cultural heritage value of the collection of kimono.

People do not like what I say, but I say, let the world end and good riddance to it, lets get it over with already.
The emphasis has always been upon the kind of people that we should be and upon renewing our lifestyle of fasting, prayer, worship, thanksgiving, and commitment to the Scriptures to know and meditate upon them to the exclusion of everything else in this world and to become their living expression in the earth so that if they've seen us, they've seen Christ Jesus. The emphasis has been upon having good relationships with God as top priority and final Authority in your decision making processes. It's been about making sure that nobody in your city goes to bed hungry, thirsty, cold, or in an unhygienic situation tonight, that all women and children in your city are safe tonight, that your tender mercies aren't veiled hypocritical cruelties instead according to Proverbs, etc., etc.
Good comments everyone, thanks....the unveiling/the beginning...hmmmm...interesting
No, for sure it didn't come by flesh and blood. For the first 2 years I spent 12 to 16 hours a day digging in the Word, getting a foundation for Him to build on. Then my circumstances changed and I didn't have the same amount of free time to do that as much. Then down the road awhile and He showed me to enter into His rest with it, only usually digging as He leads and to what He leads me to, usually triggered by a dream or a personal word to me, or both, or by praying for someone and as He gives wisdom and understanding for their circumstance, I gain as well. Sometimes just meditating on a particular question, and a revelation comes that leads to deeper study. Appears to me that in the beginning the Word defines your experience with the Spirit, but after a while the Spirit defines your experience with Word. (smile) Blessings.....
And Cardinal . . .I can't tell you how much your last sentence here struck a chord in me.

Armagnac is one of France's oldest spirits, in fact it was in production over 150 years before Cognac and whilst Cognac's popularity rather over-shadows its Gascon cousin, Armagnac is one of the world's most stunning drinks - it's an elegant, if slightly rustic, eau-de-vie. The Armagnac region lies in the Pays de Gascogne in the southwest of France. The area possesses a rich culture and the landscape is beautiful and widely cultivated for farming. The most popular grape varietals used in the production of Armagnac include Ugni Blanc, Bacco, Folle Blanche and Colombard and the region is divided into three appellations; Bas, Haut and Ténarèze.
Armagnac is singly distilled in an Alembic pot still and this makes for an initially rough spirit which, with age, becomes earthy, robust and full-bodied.
The vast majority of Armagnac produces are farmers who distil a little spirit every year to provide extra income and an enjoyable libation for themselves, but their product is seldom sold outside the reaches of their local towns and villages. There are only a few world-famous Armagnac distillers and Château du Tariquet is perhaps the best known.

Rockford, Ill. ---The Chicago Wolves power-play unit produced multiple goals for the second time this season, but those markers weren't enough to prevent a 3-2 defeat against the Rockford IceHogs on Thursday night at the MetroCentre.
Center Andrew Ebbett and left wing Brett Sterling delivered power-play strikes for the Wolves (13-10-3-1). Right wing Zack Kassian set up both scores while goaltender Matt Climie, making his 10th start in a row for Chicago, recorded 36 saves.
The Wolves opened fast by taking advantage of their first power-play opportunity at 3:22 of the first period. Kassian accepted a Darren Haydar pass below the goal line and backhanded a pass to Ebbett, who flashed in front of the crease and slid the puck between Rockford goaltender Carter Hutton's legs.
The IceHogs (16-13-1-1) answered at 5:51 of the first when Rob Flick tapped in a rebound. Rockford center Martin St. Pierre set it up when he stole the puck in the neutral zone and cruised toward the net for a shot that Climie stopped.
Rockford took a 2-1 lead with a power-play goal at the 4:40 mark of the second period. Nick Leddy fired a wrister from just above the left circle and Andrew Shaw redirected the puck into the net.
The Wolves evened it up with Sterling's power-play tally at 15:54 of the second. Similar to the team's first score, Kassian's backhand pass from below the goal line set up the play. Sterling secured the puck inside the right circle and directed it past Hutton's right skate for his team-high ninth goal of the season.
The IceHogs regained the lead at the 18:00 mark when Climie allowed a long rebound on Leddy's shot from the far faceoff circle. St. Pierre scooped up the puck, carried it in and wristed it past Climie's stick.
Climie (6-9-0) stopped 36 shots for the Wolves, including Shaw's penalty shot at 4:52 of the first period. Hutton (12-11-1) got the win with 23 saves.
The Wolves wrap up the 2012 portion of their schedule with a pair of weekend home games against the Abbotsford Heat. The Wolves and Heat meet at 7 p.m. Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday at Allstate Arena. For tickets, call 1-800-THE-WOLVES or visit ChicagoWolves.com.
