The Gran Chaco is the largest dry forest in South America and the continent's most extensive forested region after Amazonia. Spanning close to 400,000 square miles, it extends across parts of Argentina, Paraguay, Bolivia, and Brazil, where it connects with the Pantanal, the world's largest wetland. Gran Chaco contains three distinct subregions with varying climates: the Humid Chaco, Dry Chaco, and Montane Chaco. These diverse environments include plains, swamps, seasonally flooded savannas, salt flats, and a great variety of forests and scrublands. The Gran Chaco provides good habitat for the Chacoan peccary, as well as the white-lipped and collared peccaries, the Chacoan hare, 10 species of armadillo, tapirs, guanacos, and jaguars. Additionally, the region is a center of cultural diversity. However, its once numerous nomadic hunters, gatherers and fishermen, together with a group of farmers who have long called Gran Chaco home, are now severely threatened by habitat degradation and loss of traditional land rights.
WCS and the Capitanía de Alto y Bajo Isoso, the indigenous organization representing the Guaraní people of Bolivia's Chaco, have worked as partners for more than 15 years. The partnership has helped both institutions deal with challenges arising from the rapid expansion of Bolivia's hydrocarbon industry into this fragile landscape.
A newly published WCS database shows the range of 116 species of Bolivian mammals, from the obscure "Count Branickii's terrible mouse" to the mighty jaguar. The database will help shape future conservation decisions for some of South America's most threatened and charismatic wildlife.

The Carbon Dinos boys basketball team ended the week with two preseason games. The Dinos split the games and look forward to kicking off the new year in strong fashion.
Carbon's first opponent was the Union Cougars, a road game which resulted in a long bus ride home for the Dinos.
The team has been plagued throughout the season with shooting problems. At times it seems that the Dinos can't miss a shot, yet at other times they have a difficult time even sinking free throws. The Union game proved to be one of those times when the Dinos couldn't make things happen the way they wanted.
Despite the Cougars turning the ball over 10 times in the first quarter, the Dinos failed to capitalize on the mistakes and found themselves trailing Union 22-17 by the end of the period.
Although the team only trailed by five entering the second quarter, the Dinos found themselves behind at the half by the score of 44-39.
The second half of play found Carbon picking up the pace a bit as they outscored the Cougars, 22-19 in the fourth. This rally was not enough however as the team lost the game 86-70.
For the past several games, the Dinos have had three or more players score in double figures. In the Union game however, only two athletes posted double figures.
Joe Moynier set the pace in scoring with 26 points while Neal Maynes had 10.
With disappointment lingering in the minds of the Dino players, the team stepped up to take on the Granger Lancers at home on Friday night. The match up was quite intense as both teams played strong which led to a nail biting outcome.
The Lancers entered the game with a 0-8 record which meant that the team was determined to rack up their first victory of the year against the 3A opponent. The Dinos on the other hand had other plans for the visiting Granger squad.
As the competition began to heat up, so did tempers as Granger's head coach exchanged words with one of the officials and was booted out of the game.
This fired up the Dinos who capitalized on the Lancers misfortune and came back from a 29-19 half time deficit to even the score at the end ofthe game, forcing an overtime duel for the win.
Overtime was played just as the quarters before had ben, with extreme intensity. Both teams held on up to the final buzzer as the Dinos ourscored the Lancers by only three points, leading to Carbon's 73-70 over their 5A opponent.
Moynier once again lead the Dinos in scoring with 25 points. He was followed by Brandon Manzanares who posted 17 and Tyson Hackwell who scored 14.
The Dinos will return to action Dec. 28 as they travel to Park City in their final game of the calendaryear. They will then return after the Christmas break and play two back to back home games Jan. 3-4.

Editor's Note: This is a free edition of The Technical Indicator, a daily MarketWatch subscriber newsletter. To learn more, click here.
CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) — Have U.S. stocks fallen too far, too fast?
Consider that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has plunged as much as 1,216 points, or 7.3%, to start 2014. The question now is whether the downturn has been "enough" to reset the technicals for the next leg higher.
Before detailing the U.S. markets' wider view, the S&P 500's hourly chart highlights the past two weeks.
As illustrated, the S&P has violated significant support at 1,775, a level detailed last week.
This area now pivots to first resistance, and a close higher would technically mark a first step toward stabilization.
Meanwhile, the Dow industrials' near-term backdrop remains weaker.
In its case, the blue-chip benchmark has plunged to three-month lows, violating its 200-day moving average, currently 15,474.
As always, the 200-day is a widely-tracked, longer-term trending indicator, and this week's violation raises a technical red flag.
And the Nasdaq Composite has also extended its downtrend.
Its breakdown point — the 4,050 area — now marks first resistance, and the response to this area should be a useful bull-bear technical gauge.
Widening the view to six months adds perspective.
On this wider view, the Nasdaq has knifed straight through notable support at its former breakout point — like butter.
Significant resistance now spans from 4,082 (the early-December peak) to 4,098 (the 50-day moving average), and a close higher is needed to place the brakes on bearish momentum.
Moving to the Dow, its six-month backdrop is uglier.
Consider that the index has violated its 200-day moving average for the first time since Dec. 28, 2012.
In the previous case — Dec. 2012 — the Dow reclaimed its 200-day the next session, laying the groundwork for its strong 2013 rally.
The question now is whether history repeats, or at least rhymes. The Dow's 200-day moving average currently rests at 15,474.
And the S&P 500 Index has also plunged to three-month lows.
Significant resistance now holds at it breakdown point — S&P 1,775 — and a close higher would place the brakes on bearish momentum.
The bigger picture
U.S. stocks have extended the downtrend initially signaled late last month. (See Technical damage inflicted, S&P's trend turns lower, and Beware the dead-cat bounce.)
In the process, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has plunged as much as 1,216 points, or 7.3%, across just four weeks.
Against this backdrop, consider the bull-bear debate:
The bull case
Starting with the bull case, the Volatility Index VIX, -5.33% has knifed to its highest close since Dec. 28, 2012.
As always, the Volatility Index is a contrarian indicator — a widely-tracked measure of market sentiment — and extreme VIX highs have recently correlated with meaningful market lows.
To be sure, the VIX can, and has, knifed higher than its prevailing range. (See the Sept. 30, 2008 review, Despite bloodletting, the worst may be ahead.)
Nonetheless, the VIX is a useful, albeit imprecise, trend-reversal gauge, and it currently supports the bull case.
The bear case
Moving to the bear case, several concerns stand out.

Read: The Two Sides Talking To Gary Bettman
At Sportsnet, Michael Grange writes that there are two groups of people who are talking to Gary Bettman and telling what their different wants are.
One group is the big market teams, like the Rangers and Maple Leafs, along with corporate sponsors and TV broadcast holders who want the NHL back on the ice.
The other group includes the small market teams that are struggling like Florida and Columbus who "see this next CBA as being the key to their ability to survive, if not thrive."
Grange writes that to help out the struggling franchises, Bettman is committed to having the salary floor be no more than $44 million.
Yesterday on Sportsnet, Nick Kypreos said that Bettman is just trying to keep the promises that he made to small market teams about lowering the salary cap.

Stained glass artists create the masterpiece, but light is what brings it to life. Illuminate any piece in our Stained Glass Gallery Collection and you'll see exactly what I mean. These handcrafted works revisit the art of masters like Louis Comfort Tiffany and Leonardo daVinci using modern technology and traditional techniques.
Each is crafted with European-made cathedral glass and finished with a slow process of enameling that can require up to 20 applications to achieve perfect density and color. The glass is fired in kilns at temperatures approaching 1100° F. When complete, the colors are permanently fused into the glass and guaranteed never to fade.
The craftspeople of Glassmasters have created stained glass reproductions for some of the greatest museums in the world (including The Metropolitan Museum of Art and The National Gallery). Today is your chance to hang these original works of rare beauty in your home.

I have eaten here several times and have never been sick. There are some tasty options and some good specials. With one exception the service has been excellent.
Service was poor, not a lot of good options, food was bad. I ordered a salad and when they messed up and put something in it I requested not to be added bc of an allergy, they took it back and did not remake it but PICKED THAT INGREDIENT OUT. Terrible.
1148 Kildaire Farm Rd, Cary, NC 27511
Pollo rosa Maria is awesome. Finally a great dessert available Panna cotta so good. Lots to choose. Yay!!!
3400 N. Central Expressway, Plano, TX 75074
No GF pasta on the menu, very disappointing to go to an Italian restaurant and not be able to have pasta. The server offered bread even though we were discussing what was GF.
739 Lynnhaven Pkwy, Virginia Beach, VA 23452
Great new Gluten Free menu. Dinner was delicious!
12192 Sunset Hills Road, Reston, VA 20190
The gluten free menus have things on it -- the vegetable sides -- that are not GF! The steak dinner, mashed potatoes and salad were delicious and well prepared.
3194 Atlanta Highway, Athens, GA 30606
Had a very nice meal here tonight...good wine list...decent sized gluten-free menu. Very knowledgable staff (particularly our server, Riley)...the various runners mentioned each item as GF when something I ordered was delivered to the table. The meat on the skewers was a bit tough, which is the only reason I gave 4 stars...very safe for Celiacs though.
13820 Panama City Beach Parkway, Panama City, FL 32407
Several choices for gf... I've never gotten sick there! That's always a plus! :)
1201 Boston Post Road, Westfield Connecticut Post Shopping Center, Milford, CT 06460
Great food. Been there twice and server Tess has been great. Very sensitive so asked meal be served on to go and all came out without a glitch. Recommend.
5820 Red Bug Lake Road, Winter Springs, FL 32708
Got sick here twice. On our do not eat list now.
175 Market Place Blvd, Johnson City, TN 37604
They were VERY nice and helpful about ensuring no cross-contamination occurred. The waitress did try to bring bread to the table but I had the impression that she did for my dining partner. Overall a good experience and tasty.
2240 E. Highway 50, Clermont, FL 34711
They have their own gluten free menu
2709 S. Market Street, Gilbert, AZ 85296
Lots of GF menu options including gf pasta. separate prep area and allergy alert apropriate for celiacs. no issues eating here with celiac disease.
1217 North Battlefield Blvd, Chesapeake, VA 23320
I eat here regularly and the staff is usually very knowledgeable. I have had pasta added to my soup that had to be sent back but then the manager made sure everything was correct. They continue to make me shrimp scampi even though it isn't on the menu. I've never tried there pasta
9 North 3rd Street, Jacksonville Beach, FL 32250
Not much variety, everything can be ordered "without the sauce." No GF pasta option.
2575 Maryland Road, Willow Grove, PA 19090
My mom had been here more time than myself, and had gotten sick afterwards. We both have celiac. I went with her recently and we both got sick afterwards. The place wasn't busy and we explained to the waiter our intolerance and he brought bread for the table. After our meal he suggested a brownie for all of us to share. We were like seriously? My mom emailed the manager and he wasn't very nice or apologetic. We won't be going back.
6540 W. Saginaw Hwy, Lansing, MI 48917
I guess we didn't look at the menu close enough.... Food was good but nothing Gluten free with pasta. Thought we were going to an Italian restaurant......
675 Troy Schenectady Rd., Latham, NY 12110
I've been here a few times over the years, and I'm always impressed by the food. Had a very good steak with mushroom sauce from gluten free menu, along with a minestrone appetizer. Wasn't aware of the non-GF grill as mentioned by another reviewer - but I've never gotten sick from any grilled dish. Then again, I'm not as sensitive as other people. I suppose you can always ask them to clean a grill area first?
12192 Sunset Hills Road, Reston, VA 20190
Great experiences and staff are pretty knowledgable plus they have a dedicated GF menu,
12507 I-10 West, San Antonio, TX 78230
Delicious food and knowledgeable staff. Everything on the gluten free menu is wonderful!!!
12957 Cortez Blvd., Brooksville, FL 34613
Sever put in the wrong item and gave me chicken Parmesan. She didn't know the gluten free menu.
200 US Hwy Route 22 West, Green Brook, NJ 08812
Be aware of what you eat here if you have ciliac, watch out for the chicken soup, the soup is cook without noodles and the noodles are added when you order but for some reason most of the time I ask for it gluten free (no noodles) they always mess up and there is noodles in my soup, they have the noodles container right next to the soup container and they drop noodles in there all the time, one time I found one noodle in my soup, one day I found one noodle with my steak sauce, I always look thru it before I start eating it.
11021 E 71st Street, Tulsa, OK 74133
They have a GF menu and the food is great. The only downside is that they have no GF pasta. They do have 2 soup choices and 2 dessert choices.
4650 Route 42, Turnersville, NJ 08012
I have Celiac Disease and have eaten there often. Never had a problem and the food is good.
18375 W. Bluemound Road, Brookfield, WI 53045-2920
Amazing and the staff is very knowledgable as well!!
6540 W. Saginaw Hwy, Lansing, MI 48917
Decent gf menu- lots of flavor
4802 Valley View Blvd. NW, Roanoke, VA 24012
Larger menu for gluten free than most chain restaurants.
2471 Park Avenue, Easton, PA 18045
Food is great and gluten-free friendly but I so wish they had pasta.
10562 US Highway 98 W, Sandestin, FL 32550
I have celiac. Asked for the GF menu. The waitress noticed the menu before I could even say anything about preparation. She went to ask about a drink I wanted to ensure which were GF. When my salad was brought out, the server said, "Here is the GF salad." We had the best experience! The food was fantastic! I highly recommend eating here!
44695 Schoenherr Road, Sterling Heights, MI 48313
This place made me sick both times I was there.
16431 Governors Bridge Road, Bowie, MD 20716
The manager and servers at this location are awesome! They only know a little, but the little they do know is important, and they aren't afraid to ask to find out! They even asked me how I would like them to prepare my entree so I could feel more comfortable. My family enjoyed a great meal here!
617 S. Hurstbourne Parkway, Louisville, KY 40222
Limited choices on GF menu. Staff not well trained. Just be careful. Ask for a manager. .
7620 North Wickham Road, Melbourne, FL 32940
They recently changed there grill base to all gluten free. I love their chicken Bryan. Its very good.
44695 Schoenherr Road, Sterling Heights, MI 48313
Sick the last 3 times I went to this location. Not for someone with allergy or celiac.
11450 Midlothian Turnpike, Richmond, VA 23235
I ate here with my husband and daughter last weekend and had a great experience. our waiter was very knowledgeable about celiac and very patient with my questions. great meal too.
7275 Corporate Blvd, Baton Rouge, LA 70809
Very good and large menu!
3913 River Place Drive, Macon, GA 31210
Sirloin Marsala was good, although the smallest piece of beef I have ever seen. Issue was with the waiter, who did not hear my husband correctly and brought him the same dish as me, in spite of him clearly saying he wanted LASAGNA!! Ah well, gluten free for him today, too!!
49 US Highway 41, Schereville, IN 46375
Great food choices. They would have gotten 5 stars if they had GF bread!
9 North 3rd Street, Jacksonville Beach, FL 32250
Large GF menu Servers are GF knowledgeable Good food good prices Update their gluten-free menu is even more vast and Delicious than before to include gluten-free pasta!
801 Providence Rd., Brandon, FL 33511
Chicken Bryan is really good. Staff has seemed knowledgeable.
10586 Metcalf Lane, Overland Park, KS 66212
We went there & I ordered off the gluten free menu. I started eating and had a small beetle crawl out from under my food. Gross! Never going back!
3409 North Rock Road, Wichita, KS 67226
They have a nice GF Menu with great entree options. I enjoyed the service and awareness of diet restrictions. I will definitely be going back soon to try more.
1001 Sandlake Rd., Orlando, FL 32809
ordered Mediterranean salad with salmon cooked on wood. grilled lemon half was a nice touch. very good salad.
370 Columbiana Drive, Columbia, SC 29212
I had an Italian salad, told the server I had a severe gluten allergy and still got sick. She assured me that the salad was fine but I had a very bad reaction.
2370 SW College Road, Ocala, FL 34474
Very extensive gluten free menu plus the servers are always very careful about allergies and letting the kitchen know to take care. Plus the food is amazing!
6803 North Kings Highway, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
Croutons in my GF salad and an Italian dinner roll piled on top of my take out meal. would not recommend because the kitchen staff clearly have no idea what gluten free means.
8460 Lyra Dr., Columbus, OH 43240
Gluten free menu but portion size and quality for price is lacking. Service not as good as it used to be. Will go back in a pinch.
3200 High Point Road, Greensboro, NC 27407
very small portions. no GF pasta available
12728 Ocean Gateway, Ocean City, MD 21842
This place does understand food allergies. they dont offer gluten free alternative foods, like, breads pasta or pizza. they have a gf menu with delicious italian foods. They prepared the food well. my son, 10 with Celiac, ordered the filet with green beans and no sauce. He liked it. He was disappointed not tobe able to get a gf pizza.
7890 W. Irlo Bronson Hwy., Kissimmee, FL 34747
We were here while vacationing in FL. Our celiac son ordered a gluten free chicken entree. When it came out, there was pasta on his plate. (Not a whole serving, just a couple stray pieces.) We called a server over and they dealt with it appropriately. They took it back to the kitchen and eventually brought him a new dish. We were fairly sure they didn't just remove the pasta from the same plate because it took them a while, presumably to re-make it. They also took his dish off the bill and gave him a free dessert. The manager came to our table and apologized multiple times. He had no adverse reaction to the meal. Overall, they handled it appropriately but could have been a different experience if our son hadn't noticed the pasta.
2471 Park Avenue, Easton, PA 18045
They don't have much gf that is also veg (that is why I rated 3 stars), but I always get tomato mozz salad and minestrone soup. I get it there a lot. Always tasty, never been glutened.
11450 Midlothian Turnpike, Richmond, VA 23235
The service was terrible. Food was tasteless. And it was so loud I couldn't hear anything the person sitting next to me said. I would not recommend at all. Also not good gf options.

We once thought that it took a strongly fashion-forward woman to wear a jumpsuit, but upon further consideration, we think it just takes a smart one. Yes, some all-in-ones make a big statement, but there are so many subtle styles available that it's possible to find a suit for any situation.
The jumpsuit popped up on so many different spring runways it's hard to keep track of all of their appearances. A few of our favorite examples include Stella McCartney (floral prints, spaghetti straps), Givenchy (multiple pockets, slightly cropped length), and Prada (silky plaid). We've spotted a wide range of celebrities wearing assorted jumpsuit styles as well. Pixie Geldof wore a short mustard playsuit with black tights for the launch of an H&M flagship store in London, while Erin Wasson chose one of our favorite runway looks-the aforementioned Prada-for a party in Los Angeles. Elettra Wiedemann and Helena Christensen both selected ultra long, wide-leg jumpsuits for a Swarovski cocktail party and lunch honoring Antony Todd, respectively. We like the orange pop of Weidemann's belt and Christensen's simple accessories. Our final example comes from the recent queen of the all-in-one, Rihanna. She was spotted last month in Los Angeles wearing Stella McCartney's ultra girly ruffled jumpsuit with an oversized pair of hoop earrings and YSL's Biarritz Sandals ($195).
As far as product goes, we found some simple playsuits and jumpsuits that are cute enough to make even the most fervent romper-hater reconsider their stance. One of the best pieces we've seen is Alexander Wang's Silk Racerback Playsuit ($266 on sale). We'd wear it with some nude sandals like farylrobin's Wee Punched & Studded Thongs ($170) for day and dress it up with a set of silver cuff bracelets for night. Paul & Joe Prommier Jumpsuit ($248) is a bit more adventurous thanks to the snake print fabric. The soft gray and looser silhouette of Margo London's Felix Playsuit ($161) and the zipper details on the ankles of the Farahbella Meme Jumpsuit ($335) are both notable too. Finally, we'd like to suggest checking out Topshop's plentiful bounty of well-priced playsuits. They're stocking prints and solids, as well as long and short lengths, so you're likely to find the perfect piece for your summer wardrobe.

Re: Ed Roth Choppers magazine
I have all but one of Roth's Choppers/Custom Bike magazines from 1967-March 1970. The one I am missing is issue number five from May 1968. If anyone has one they would part with I am ready to buy it.

We'll be trying a new Monday-Friday feature on BB this
season to keep you abreast of the latest developments around the National
Hockey League.
Here's a look at what's making headlines today:
- 2011 first-overall pick Ryan Nugent-Hopkins may not
be heading back to the WHL. The
center made
some magic with Taylor Hall last night as each tallied three points. Hall is very pleased
about the potential of playing with RNH and I think Hall is going to have a
huge season.
- Second-overall pick Gabriel Landeskog has already worked
his way up to the Avalanche's first line alongside Paul Stastny and David
Jones. I would think Landeskog would be
a better fit with Matt Duchene and Milan Hejduk, but he should have a great
chance to pile up some points either way.
- Leading up to the 2011 Draft and even after it the consensus
was that seventh-overall pick Mark Scheifele was a few years away from playing
in the NHL. But Scheifele has been a
revelation this fall and has probably been the biggest surprise of the
preseason. Winnipeg hasn't made any
decisions yet, but Scheifele
might stick around.
- The Washington Capitals are looking like a likely
host for the 2012 Winter Classic.
- Alexander Radulov sounds like he'll be
making a return to the NHL next season. The Nashville Predators still control his rights and he would
immediately become their best offensive player.
- Alexei Yashin has signed a
one-year deal with CKSA.
- Earlier this week Jan Hejda of the Avalanche suffered a knee
injury that was expected to keep him out for two-to-four weeks, but Hejda's
already back on the ice participating in full-contact scrimmages.
- Sam Gagner of the Edmonton Oilers has a sprained ankle and is
- The Flyers received a scare on Friday night when Scott
Hartnell was diagnosed with an elevated heart rate, but Hartnell has been cleared to
return to action by a cardiologist.
- Matt Stajan is ready to
be the "whipping boy" in Calgary.
- USA Today's Kevin Allen lists 10 NHL players with
something to prove this season.
- Wayne Simmonds avoided
punishment for the incident in Monday night's game when he allegedly
uttered a homophobic slur at Sean Avery. The NY Post's Larry Brooks weighs
in on that and says the NHL failed to "do its duty."
- Anaheim Duck Jean-Francois Jacques was suspended
for the rest of the preseason and five regular season games for leaving the
- New York Islanders prospect Kirill Kabanov accepted an
invitation from a random Facebook friend to join
a pick-up roller hockey game.

Improving the functioning of the food supply chain Published on: 05/12/2012, Last update: 11/12/2012
"This work is an example of how bringing together all sectors working around the food chain can produce results and show the direction for future policy in this area. We are particularly pleased with the engagement that all members of the Forum have demonstrated to come up with solutions for a sector that is vital to the EU economy. Stakeholders have demonstrated their commitment to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of the food supply chain. We regret that no agreement has yet been reached on business-to-business unfair trading practices but believe that this can still be done. Stakeholders should maintain an active and committed endeavour to conclude an agreement in the field of business-to-business unfair trading practices. We aim to achieve clarity on the way forward by the autumn of next year. Our objective is to promote confidence throughout the food chain to the benefit of all - producers, manufacturers, retailers and consumers."
Every day, numerous operators (EU and non-EU) of the food supply chain deliver safe and diverse foodstuffs and beverages to over 500 million European consumers, representing an average of 15 % of household expenditure.
The agro-food sector is a vital economy driver in the EU which encompasses 17 million enterprises in agriculture, the food processing industry and related services. The High Level Forum for a Better Functioning Food Supply Chain, established in 2010, has presented its report today. It shows that around 80 % of the initiatives contained in the Forum's Roadmap have been satisfactorily implemented.
The Forum looks forward to a consensus yet to be reached on the best way to implement the principles of good practice put forward last year to improve business-to-business relationships (IP/11/1469). All parties showed their clear willingness to continue discussions in a constructive way and the Commission encourages stakeholders to put forward a satisfactory solution at the earliest opportunity.
In parallel the Commission will assess all possible options for tackling unfair trading practices in the food chain, including legislation, and will launch an impact assessment.
Progress achieved in several fields
Business-to-business contractual practices, competitiveness of the agro-food industry and food prices monitoring were the three main pillars along which the holistic work of the Forum was structured. Today's report highlights the progress achieved so far:
12 initiatives are fully achieved. These include:
EU legislative acts: the Directive on industrial emissions; adoption of revised rules of origin and implementation of all aspects of the Small Business Act SBA review;
Initiatives now following their own work programme: the EU Social Dialogue Committee, the Food Sustainable Consumption and Production Round Table;
Working procedures: competitiveness proofing, continued publication of annual calls related to food research;
Regular exchange of information and good practice in Europe: Food chain benefitted from European competition rules (IP/12/502), the HLG on logistics made progress; actions in international fora are ongoing (e.g. actions to promote the uptake of international standards); food information and education have been advancing significantly both at legislative as well as at the level of voluntary initiatives, including awareness and education tools and studies;
Identification of most important trade barriers for EU food exporters: Free trade agreements with South Korea and Morocco, extension of regulatory dialogues, continued participation of the food sector to Missions for Growth (MEMO/12/920).
For 14 initiatives there have been major advances, but more needs to be done to reap their benefits. This includes for instance legislative acts which are currently under legislative procedure or need to be implemented (e.g. the review of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive, food information to consumers); significant progress made in several Member States but not all of them (e.g. on the development of food prices observatories).
For the remaining 6 initiatives significant progress is still needed. In most cases, work is on-going but further actions still need to be taken either by EU institutions (e.g. on novel foods) or by national authorities and private stakeholders (e.g. on national organisations to report on geographical indication counterfeiting). Progress may reasonably be expected in the near future on several initiatives, though there is one exception: delays in the Doha Development Agenda make it unlikely that an ambitious global trade agreement will be reached soon.
Work to be continued
The Forum recommended maintaining a multi-stakeholder dialogue on priorities such as, the follow-up to the on-going pilot project on a fitness check for the food supply chain; the improvement of the European Food Prices Monitoring Tool and further initiatives as the flagship initiatives of the Europe 2020 Strategy.
Important economic role of food sector
The agri-food sector plays a central role in the Union economy, society and environment. It is a complex supply chain, which encompasses agriculture, the food processing industry and related services. Taken as a whole, it generates value added of € 715 billion per year — almost 6 % of the EU Gross Domestic Product. Around 17 million holdings and enterprises (82 % of them agricultural holdings), many of them small, are involved, providing jobs to over 48 million Europeans. The food processing industry is the first manufacturing sector in the EU in terms of value added and employment.
Moreover, the EU is the world's biggest exporter and importer of agricultural and food products, and accounts for about 19 % of total global export flows. However, the EU food sector's competitive leadership is increasingly being challenged by established trade partners (USA, Australia, New Zealand) and by emerging economies (Brazil, China).
The European Commission established the Forum in 20101 (IP/10/1510) to assist the Commission in supporting sustainable competitiveness and growth in the European agro-food supply chain. It provides advice to the Commission in the implementation of its Communication 'A better functioning food supply chain in Europe' (COM(2009) 591).
The Forum comprises 45 members representing a number of Member States, European companies dealing with food production, processing or distribution, professional associations and non-governmental organisations representing citizens' interests. It is chaired by European Commission Vice President Antonio Tajani together with his fellow Commissioners Michel Barnier (Internal Market and Services), Dacian Cioloş (Agriculture and Rural Development) and Tonio Borg (Health and Consumers). Its mandate expires on 31/12/2012.

SACKETS HARBOR Quilters and art patrons will get their kicks out of Route 66-themed quilts at this years Great Lakes Seaway Trail Quilt Show.
A collection of 56 quilts honoring the historic highway that spans eight states will be part of the quilt show, which expands to two weekends this year and to three additional buildings in addition to the three floors and nine rooms of the Seaway Trail Discovery Center at 401 W. Main St.
This years Beauty of the Byways theme is attracting quilts from U.S. states and Canada along with special traveling exhibits. The show runs Saturday and Sunday and March 23 and 24.
Quilts also will be featured at United Presbyterian Church at Broad and East Main streets; the 1808 Samuel Hooker House, which houses the Sackets Harbor Arts Center at 119 W. Main St., and the Augustus Sackett Mansion, 110 W. Main St.
Patricia L. Blair of Mount Baldy, Calif., and Kelly Gallagher-Abbott of Fort Collins, Colo., created the Route 66 Challenge in 2011. Mrs. Blair said they got the idea to create the competition after attending a Road to California quilt show in Ontario, Calif., in 2007. They decided to expand on the road theme to focus on Route 66. The pair wont be in attendance at the Sackets Harbor show.
The shows first stop was in Colorado in 2012. Its made about 10 stops.
Artwork on the quilts, which measure 18-by-24-inches, include open road desert scenes, historic landmarks, road maps and abstract designs along the Route 66 byway of the states of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Illinois.
The only state not well-represented is Kansas, Mrs. Blair said in a phone interview from Mount Baldy. But the highway only went through a little tiny corner of that state.
Along with tangible themes like cars and landmarks, Mrs. Blair said, the exhibit touches on the quilters personal memories. One quilt recreates an Oklahoma womans memory forged during World War II of seeing troop trains roll through her town.
Its become a very social exhibit because people reminisce, Mrs. Blair said. Unlike many exhibits, this one seems to touch peoples hearts.
Route 66 began in the 1920s as a two-lane, 2,488-mile route from Chicago to Los Angeles. Route 66s formal existence as the way to motor West following a trail blazed through history lasted six decades. The route found new life with National Scenic Byway designation in New Mexico in 2000, in Arizona and Illinois in 2005, and in Oklahoma in 2009.
It doesnt seem to matter what state people grew up in, Mrs. Blair said. Almost anyone of at least a certain age ran either a car, motorcycle or truck down that highway and has memories.
Mrs. Blair, who is also a painter, created a 66-foot-long quilted map of Route 66 that will be included in the exhibit.
n n n
The quilt show also will include 80 of the 2012 Hoffman Challenge quilts. The Hoffman Challenge was created in 1988 by Hoffman California Fabrics, which sponsors the contest. It chooses a fabric as the basis for the competition.
The collection coming to the Great Lakes Seaway Trail show includes eight Hoffman Challenge award winners, several of which fit the shows Beauty of the Byways theme. The first-place quilt was made by Colleen Harvey of Nederland, Colo., a community on Colorados Peak to Peak Scenic Byway, established in 1918.
The Hoffman Challenge third place applique-design quilt was made by Judy Beskow from the Creole Nature Trail byway region of Louisiana. The best use of Sulky thread quilt was made by Carol Kolf of Sheridan, Wy., near the Bighorn Scenic Byway.
Besides demonstrations and vendors, the quilt show also will include an exhibit of the Orleans County Country Barn Quilt Trail, a 22-mile loop tour off the Great Lakes Seaway Trail byway with more than 40 barns painted with quilt patterns.
The quilting tradition is a popular cultural and arts heritage travel theme for the Great Lakes Seaway Trail, which has clusters of Mennonite and Amish quilters, particularly in the Chautauqua and St. Lawrence County regions of the byway.

not to much of a looker. the shape doesn't appeal to me. long thin body with the long thin wings in the back. the shape along the side angle and nose cone don't help. if one of does a nosedive, it's going to stick like a dart
Reminds me of a lawn dart -- is that bad?
That is bad.. Just think of how deep it would go... Supersonic CFIT. NTSB would really have to work that one.
It would probably take 1/2 dozen track hoes just to get down to it. All kidding aside, as someone said here, that is not your average corporate jet, besides needing to get there in a hurry.
Time is money. Ain't that why we fly in the first place?
I guess, but that sure will be a lot of $ for an extra hour or 2.lol
More than I'm worth, fer dang sure!
That would have to be for somebody with a lot of International business that needed to be in a hurry to get it done, or somebody on one coast doing a lot of business on the other, but I doubt if anybody in our bunch is in that big of a hurry.lol
Sounds like a mini-SST. Didn't a few folks pay 10 grand per trip to get to one side or other of the Pond in a short time to accomplish some kind of business?
I don't think I have ever seen any supersonic transport with so much dihedral. Im sure it will change a bit between this drawing and delivered aircraft, the plane doesn't look right. I wonder what the V speeds would be for this thing. Imagine if the swept wing froze (like flaps do) - what would that approach speed be like and how much runway would that eat up. I think there was an F14 that couldn't change back from high speed configuration but I never heard how he landed or where. Would be nice to see supersonic flight make a comeback. Like the Concorde, it would be a flagship of what is technologically possible. It definitely would be the rich man's "must have" to signal his wealth and power. Even if the plane was flown subsonically to save fuel most of the time - its a huge status symbol when you have an SST side by side with a Beech-jet. I hope they do it right- not like the beech starship. Even with quieter supersonic booms I would imagine it would still have a noticeable or distinct sound. When I flew the piaggio P180 many people said it was louder than any other aircraft, even jets like the MD88... but when you measured the Db level it was same or lower. People heard the P180 more because it sounded different than the other aircraft so it stood out. If this aircraft has a different sound I am sure people will complain that it is too noisy even if it isn't... so they have their work cut out for them. In a nation that doesn't mind if Harley davidson's pass by your house at 2am, but call the airport manager when a Cessna flies after 9pm- I wonder how well this SST will do in the night hours when you really can go faster with less traffic. Even in the CL-65 with only a .85 Mach top speed, ATC slows you down quite a bit during the day. Many times we were slowed to .77 or .70... so when you put these two issues (daytime congestion and nighttime noise) I don't know if it will be used for coast to coast travel in the US. One thing for sure though, when these babies are in production I would love to fly it :) Thats the best part of flying for a living - someone else gets to buy the cool toys and then we get to play with it. :)
When you having your next back surgery?
the P180 sounds like a motorcycle stuck in first gear...lol
Looks like Feb 25 or 28 - they are going to fuse my entire thoracic spine - from T2 to L2.
Yeah - the p180 sounds funny. I always said it looks like a catfish and sounds like a weed whacker
Well, it flies and is pretty fast, and cheaper than a jet, both in initial cost and operation. Not that much speed difference either by the time ATC gets thru with most jets.
That's all cool-aid. The plane may be nice on paper but it's a hanger queen. I have never seen any other aircraft with a PT6 that had as many engine failures. Then there are the door cables that keep breaking, or the door seals that fail constantly. But that's nothing compared to a ref speed of 120-130 with no anti-skid breaks, brakes that if used aggressively even once could end up with a blown tire and scratch the wheel hub and brake assembly in half, and that is nothing compared to the myriad frozen flight controls in flight... The plane looks good on paper - and even from far away - but get to close and you'll see the bondo all over the plane, it has serious issues- and yes many of those problems could have been operator specific - but you couldn't get a rock solid platform to have as many problems if you tried. It's Italian - they are known for mx heavy vehicles that can be costly to maintain. A lamborghini mechanic told me that if you look at the total cost of ownership - it costs an average owner over 2500 each time the keys go into the ignition - notice I didn't say start the engine - because they don't always start. Same goes for the P180 which is why we had a handful of canabalized aircraft in our hanger (those owners were not to happy about that, let me tell you) - and they didn't have a choice because not only is the plane a hanger queen - but parts take forever and a day to arrive from the land of pasta and piaggio scooters, uh - I mean airplanes. The external design was fantastic, but many of us pilots always discussed how it seems like the engineers tried their hardest to screw up all the systems. I mean, really- why put a pitot drain at a high point of the system - most drains on earth are at the lowest point - but I shit you not - it's in the upper half of the network of plastic tubes. God, the nose gear- why didn't I start with the nose gear - the plane has only single tire mains but a double tire nose gear. Now, in order to make the plane as awkward as possible- the gear comes down in an angle, so now, when you turn either direction- one wheel rides on its sidewall while the other lifts off the pavement. And that makes it real squarely on the ground - but not squirmy enough - so to help make it even worse- they decided that the rudders won't be mechanically connected to the nose wheel but it is connected to the huge rudder. So now, while you have no tactile feel for the nose gear - when a gust of wind hits the tail it makes steering in windy conditions difficult to say the least - but then. - to seal the deal - they installed a really bad steering motor/servo. So when you taxi in windy conditions the nose wheel steering system fails constantly. - and there are some real safety issues in flight- like the flaps system that doesnt monitor the flaps position, but rather if the motor is in sync. So you can have a motor spinning freely without affecting the flap itself, have a huge asymmetric flap situation and not even have an indication. - oh the list is too long to complete here - But don't get too excited about the numbers- the P180 loses its luster when you look closer. And yet I was saddened when I could no longer fly it - but now looking back - I clearly miss flying but I ambient miss that catfish one bit. Of the perspective owners knew what I did - they would pay more not for the prestige of a jet - but because they would know the whole truth. As for speed- that's total BS - the plane may fly .70 when new - but just a year later it won't even do that. The POH/AFM even deducts 5% for a dirty airplane. And ATC is constantly making you descend to get out of the way of faster traffic - burning a ton of extra gas - and now even shorter flights need a fuel stop - but the operator doesn't like pilots to plan fuel stops- no they want to divert for fuel so that sales can keep selling its lie. The piaggio is the plane that almost was. I hope this SST will be better - and it probably will- because it's company is known for building great airplanes - not mainly mopeds and occasionally aircraft. Their workers make planes and replacement parts year round- and they make a good quality product. On the P180 even the interior is garbage. Drawers that won't stay shut, window shades that droop or fall apart, emergency exits blocked by interior covering falling off the high tech Velcro - the bathroom door than doesn't close fully - the honey bucket rather than external servicing (which many aircraft have) but on the P180 it is a big deal because of the sheer number of issues. Like having to climb onto the wing (need a ladder to get on) and then having to unscrew 16 hex screws to remove a service plate just to add oil. Only in the last two years have they been retrofitting quick access panels aftermarket. It would have been sooner (just like the problem with the leading edge) but our company DO tried to bully the FAA and.even was
Proud of how many FAA POI's he was able to train the Avantair way - do of course they dragged their feet when we needed things approved. So, the DO decided to send out a new GOM withal dive changes without approval by the POI!!! That was just one of the great mess ups by a DO that should be in prison rather than occupying that office. But that's what you get when your company fills
Positions with friends rather than by qualifications. And that is just a peek into why the FAA asked them to stand down operations a few times. So many stories - and most of them documented with pictures or video as proof. I took them to show to MX but I still have them. Shoot me a private message if you'd like to see some ;)
That's a tall glass of Kool Aid, my friensd.LOL
the MU-2 has he same gear set-up...I wonder if the bad taxiing characteristics have anything to do with the plane just being top heavy aft of the gear
Wasn't one of them what you were changing a battery on when you fell and hurt your back?
The Battery quick disconnect is another design flaw, yes. Human factors is an important aspect of aircraft design. Average human male height is 69 inches. I am 5'9" myself and could not reach the disconnect. I was not alone - so much so that in training we were told to use our suitcases to step on to reach the battery because they didn't want to use the tiny amount of cargo space on a ladder or step stool. I was kept from getting medical treatment so my lawyer did a little snooping - and it turns out that I was not the only one hurt this way. We found out that there were three big injuries that we got hard evidence of and two others we could not pove. To have 5 out of 250 pilots get seriously hurt from the design of the battery access is pretty substantial. Just like the fact 10% of our fleet had run off a runway. The plane looks nice and the figures look good on paper - but in reality it's pretty pathetic. I've got the truth on my side - not nervous jokes attempting to divert attention or poking fun at people. It's possible for other aircraft to have a single design problem in common with the P180 - but the piaggio has way too many. While I flew it I was ignoring the problems because I wanted to stay at the same job until retirement. But seeing how my company turned their back on me after I was injured - just as others who were hurt or used FMLA when they had a baby. I know because I defended many while I was on the PAC. I saw pilots who were at the company for nearly a decade let go because they refused to fly over gross, or with open write ups not covered by the MEL - and suddenly fail check rides or Orals. In retrospect I should have quit - but I was willing to overlook a lot for the 7 and 7 schedule. I didn't break a single rule-nor did I fly illegally - mind you! As someone who helped them promote the BS about the plane - trust me - its all cool aid!
Like I said, a tall glas of Kool Aid. At any rate, Although probably not your best, I'll say Merry Christmas and/or Happy Hannukah
I appreciate it. Merry Christmas to you too and thank you for not swallowing all the Kool-Aid piaggio makes available
Well, it all looks refreshing. It's good to know what goes into it. As far as your company turning their back on you after your injury. Sad as it is, there are a lot like that. When you start costing them money and can no longer produce, they start trying to throw you away, not realizing that you are a human being as well. They put you into an adversarial position out of necessity and survival. I've seen both sides of it and geberally the other side costs no more and then you have an assett at the end rather than an enemy.
I've seen both sides - and so has the US government. It showed the government how bad injured workers were treated that they gave legal protection to workers - a protection that should have deterred my company from letting me go. But they did anyway. Now I have to sue for damages- and the cost of that will far exceed the cost of keeping me on board. They were not paying any salary this whole time - and they even dumped their insurance so they stopped paying those premiums - but these cases cost millions - its not just the penalty and award - its the legal costs.
Sounds like a bunch of real prizes
If you go higher than FL 410 you will be in a safer area, and more direct routes. Could say some travel expenses.... Besides.. Maybe your boss will get on and you can give us a first hand review.
I just don't care for anything with a prop on it. A couple of years ago, while still doing some AA/Eagle work, I wound up on an ATR. I'm glad they got rid of them all. Them things were nasty, noisy, and slow. The only props I would like a crack at is one of these here that we are talking about and a Q400.
Used to have a Rockwell 680, a great stable plane very good for US travel yes it was noisy but that's what they make DC's for
I am conducting an investigation of Avantair on behalf of investors. I am a retired FBI agent and I would like to contact former Avantair pilots like ypurself about Avantair's failure to do necessary maintenance. Jerry Richards firstname.lastname@example.com
that does strike a funny mental image....!
wow, is that a sexy-looking beast or what!
Brian, I absolutely agree. Do you feel there's a chance they might actually build this mini-missile?
I'm sure it's a ways off yet but eventually, yes I think they will. Why? Because they can. And because somebody, or enough somebodies, will have to have one.
Now the FO's will have a new job......cleaning off the "quiet spike" of remains of all those harpooned birds that never seen it coming....lol
The patent application does not mention that the size and weight of all the "Whisper" technology makes it a two place aircraft with a maximum range of thirt-five nautical miles.
All kidding aside, it looks incredible.
LOL, but in the text it says it's a bit less than '...13.7m (45.1ft) interior cabin length...', which implies the tip to tail length is somewhat longer than a B737. Not your average corporate jet!
look up the specs for the G650.
finaly back to the future
I think this will be a blend of the G650 and the G550. G650 is already rated to .95 mach, structure seems to be able to handle the sweep wings. The nose issue is a whole nother ball game. If they can get it out there far enough, the wave will have to travel farther out torwards the winglets. I could get on board with one of these. Great innovation from a Private American Comapany!!!
Potential need for speed: Exxon Mobile;A-M Steel;AEP;Mining Industry. All have multi-continent operations.Then,of course......Mark Cuban!
Needs some switchblade canards on the nose somewhere, that cone is asking for trouble.
I guess some people will want one but they better have a large maintanance budget, variable wings and super tuned power plants cost a lot to keep flying. I think .8 to .9 mach is fast enough and safer
I remember back in '74 when I first saw a G-2, and boy was I excited. It was operating for Coca Cola, and the crew was very hospitable to me (line slime/gopher/refueler at the time), and invited me aboard for coffee and a danish. Thank you guys for your time and "motivational tour"! Wow!
This jet however, reminds me of the one in the "Johnny Quest" cartoons series.
Looking at it from a maintenance point of view, Emphasis on "POINT" it is going to be fun to taxi, and even more fun to put into a hangar... For the sake of Mechanics working on this thing, I hope they have a nose cone to put over the tip... It looks lethal.
At least there's precedent of ground crew needing protection from the a/c. The F-104 Starfighter comes to mind. The leading edges of the wings were covered when on the ground to protect the unwary that might walk into them accidently.
The wing was extremely thin, with a thickness-to-chord ratio of only 3.36%. Its aspect ratio was 2.45. The wing's leading edges were so thin (0.016 in / 0.41 mm) and so sharp that they presented a hazard to ground crews
Best I remember, wasn't it's nickname THUD and/or MISSLE WITH A WING?
The boys in my shop would not be calling it a "nose cone."
From a MX point of view, I see the potential for trouble with two things: the nose & the wings. Any time you have variable geometry anything, the weight and complexity of the associated systems skyrockets (flight controls, wing swing, anti-ice, etc). Can you imagine having to rig something like that?
Yeah.. I can imagine rigging that... LOL, I can also see Nightmares as well
Obviously moving parts create complexities and challenges, but at least this is not groundbreaking technology for supersonic aircraft (the wings anyway). The telescoping nose is intriguing.
My aeronautical engineering is a bit rusty these days, but if the reason for the extended nose is quieter flight past Mach 1, why not just have it extended all the time - ie a long skinny nose? Maybe that'd make it too hard for the driver to land/park it! Concorde has a drooping nose to allow better visibility.
True Peter-but the Concord is anything but a "quite technology" aircraft. The Ruskies are also developing this "quite" mode of supersonic flight, but from a different consept. Gosh, my Cessna 150 will never be the same now-
Your C150 better stay out of the way or it'll be harpooned..lol
yea, from a MX point of view, I can see an entire area of specialty opening up
It's ugly!
Merry Christmas to all.

If you've been missing chewy Black Cow caramel candy, I've got good news. It's back—and it's chewier than ever.
After a 25-year hiatus, Black Cow—the sister candy to Slo Poke—has officially relaunched in two new formats: 1.5-ounce bars and bite-sized chews. The chocolaty-caramel treat has also undergone a reformulation.
"Originally, Black Cow was a Slo Poke caramel dipped into a compound chocolate," says Rich Warrell, director of sales and marketing for Classic Caramel, a division of The Warrell Corporation and current manufacturer of Black Cow and Slo Poke brands. "Our version is a firmer, full-flavored caramel with real chocolate in the piece itself—like a much richer Tootsie Roll, which is also a type of a chocolate caramel."
Just like Black Cow, Slo Poke will now only be available in bar and bite-sized formats, which is a bit of a bummer if you're a sucker fan. Rich Warrell did confirm, however, that the recipe for Slo Poke is the same. No sucker stick, same taste, no problem on my end.
Contest Winner!
Michele Levinski is the winner of the "Guess which classic candy is coming out of retirement?" contest. Michele was the first person to guess Black Cow. (She actually guessed "Chocolate Cow," but close enough.) As the official winner, Michele will receive a case of Black Cow caramel candy. Congrats Michele and thanks to all who participated. We had more than 275 guesses!
The history of Slo Poke and Black Cow reads like the resume of a serial job hopper. Both brands have changed manufacturers multiple times before finally landing in Classic Caramel's facility in Camp Hill, PA.
M.J. Holloway & Co., Beatrice Foods, Leaf Brands, Pittsburgh Food and Beverage Company, and Gilliam Candy all played a part in keeping these two brands alive and well in America. (At one point M.J. Holloway had extended its line to Banana, Orange, Pink, and Purple Cows.)
Throughout all of the company hopping, a few things have remained the same. Both candies are still wrapped in brown and mustard-yellow packaging and both kept their same nostalgic logos with the rounded sans-serif fonts.
Come to think of it, a Slo Poke and a Black Cow should still last though an entire "Rocky" movie, too.
Black Cow bars and bites are available exclusively at Candy.com. Pre-book now for March 15 ship date!

Curtis Baker On the Road with Dolly Parton
Last year, photographer Curtis Baker found himself with an all-access pass to photograph Dolly Parton at her opening show in Nashville, Tennessee. Luckily, he brought along his PocketWizards so he could get two points of view for the price of one photographer!
He writes:
"After the intermission, I took the D700 and a Nikon 14-24mm 2.8 with a Manfrotto Magic Arm and attached it high up to the huge video wall behind the stage. I used a PocketWizard remote trigger and cord to fire off wide angle shots of Dolly facing the crowd. Every time the house lights came on to light the crowd and her hands went up, I would push the little button on my PocketWizard in my shirt pocket, hoping for a magic shot."
Nice work, Curtis! Read his full account and see more of his music photography (and the PocketWizard shot) at his site.

Augusto "Goose" Perez is one step closer to his goal of making the U.S. Paralympic Nordic Ski Team after his performance two weeks ago at the 2013 Paralympic Committee Nordic Skiing World Cup in Cable, Wis.
He finished every race, just as he promised, beating his expectations by achieving his personal best time during each. He was even ranked No. 10 in the world in the mid-distance biathlon, a 12.5-kilometer race with four rounds of shooting.
After talking with his coaches after the events, Mr. Perez said his prospects for making the team are "looking pretty good."
"I think I will make the team," he said. "It's time to stand up or step aside."
Mr. Perez, who trains locally at the Winona State Forest, said he won't know for sure whether he's made the team until December, following the World Cup in Canada.
His next challenge is to compete in the adaptive biathlon events at the Empire State Winter Games, Lake Placid, during the second week of February.
Mr. Perez, who came to the U.S. from Spain during his senior year of high school, has been diagnosed with soft-tissue sarcoma four times, most recently in October, and had his left leg amputated in 2003. He finished his most recent round of radiation treatment a week before competing in Wisconsin.
He competed in the 2006 Torino Winter Games as part of the U.S. Paralympic Wheelchair Curling Team. He won the 200-meter sprint world championship in 2009 in adaptive outrigger canoeing and also has competed in marathons using a hand cycle.
His competitive drive is limited only by a shortage of funds. Though he receives some money from the U.S. Olympic Committee for training purposes, it is not enough to cover all his traveling expenses.
Mr. Perez said he had planned to compete in the American Birkebeiner Classic, which runs 50 km from Cable to Hayward, Wis., and is one of the longest cross-country skiing events in North America, but had to back out because of lack of funding.
He is supported by the Winona Forest Recreation Association, which grooms certain trails for the hard-packed snow required for his training.

COLTON - The Colton Hepburn Library has recently received a grant from the Libri Foundation in Eugene, Oregon and has used the funds to purchase childrens books.
Library board Trustee Eleanor Menz shared the news with the Colton Town Board at their meeting this week.
The Colton library has received a grant from the Libri Foundation for the purpose of purchase of 67 childrens books. The grant was made possible by the Friends (of the Library), who provided a third of the funding, which was matched by the foundation, Ms. Menz said.
According to the librarys web site, Friends of the Library consist of a group of individuals who are interested in doing things to supplement and support the library. The total retail value of the 67 books, which range from pre-school to young adult, was $1,050.
Ms. Menz added that the grant came at a very good time for the library.
This has been really important to us now because a lot of our funds are used up, she said. So this enables us to purchase books that we couldnt have purchased otherwise. So were pleased about that.
The important thing is that funding for libraries has really been drying up and this will be very helpful. We pride ourselves with having a lot of current and new books.
For 20 years the foundation has sponsored the Books For Children program, but this is the first time they have worked with the Colton Hepburn Library.
The library celebrated its centennial earlier in the year.

Hua Guofeng
Mr. Hua in 1978; Agence France-Presse — Getty Images/File
Hua Guofeng briefly ruled China as the successor to Mao Zedong but was pushed aside as a prelude to reforms that led to an economic boom. He died at age 87 on Aug. 20, 2008.
He took power after Mao's death in September 1976 but saw his powers erode until Deng Xiaoping took control two years later. He was forced out as Communist Party chairman in 1981 but remained part of the inner circle as a member of the party's Central Committee.
Shortly after Hua took power, Mao's widow, Jiang Qing, and other members of what was known as the Gang of Four were arrested, marking the end of the violent 1966-76 Cultural Revolution.
Born to a poor family in 1921, Hua became a guerrilla fighter in Mao's communist movement at 15 when it was battling for survival against Chiang Kai-shek's ruling Nationalists.
After the 1949 revolution, Hua served in provincial government and party posts until he was named to the Central Committee in 1969. The next year, he became party secretary of Hunan, Mao's home province.
Hua was named vice premier in 1975 and then premier, succeeding the late Zhou Enlai.
When Hua took power, China was in the grip of the Cultural Revolution. Millions were persecuted while the economy was pushed to the brink of collapse.The arrests of the Gang of Four symbolically ended the era of upheaval and self-imposed isolation.
Deng saw Hua as an obstacle to his economic plans and manuevered to replace him. Deng had been purged in Mao's final years but was restored to his official posts in July 1977.
Hua was effectively stripped of his powers at a party meeting in December 1978. The same gathering approved Deng's ''reform and opening'' policy legalizing small-scale private farms, the first step in what became China's successful capitalist reform program.
Hua resigned as premier in September 1980 and was replaced by the economist Zhao Ziyang, a follower of Deng. The next year, Deng had Hua replaced as party secretary general by Hu Yaobang. -- From the Associated Press obituary
