Recently, I've found plenty of sites explaining strategies for growing our blogs, where growing means to expand our reader-base or to win more money, depending on our goals for blogging. Other important motivation for blogging is to attain or fortify a position in a specific niche market. For example, if you're a graphic designer, you can start a blog to present your past and current projects, demonstrate your abilities in the area of design, and potentially capture new clients. Moreover, creating a blog is easier than ever thanks to the new web 2.0 technologies, which allow to start posting in a very short time. This means that a lot of people are creating blogs, and therefore competence is high. And if you're new, blogs may prove to be a very tricky field to conquer, especially when it comes to gaining your initial reader-base. And when you get that reader-base your efforts should focus on keeping those readers through innovation. Remember, a happy reader is a returning reader. But blogging is not a trivial chore in any way.
Previously, we presented an article about the basic elements of a successful approach to blogging (we called such approach the Samurai approach.) Nevertheless, universal strategies don't apply to blogging. Each blogger has to discover, hone, innovate her own approach to blogging. Our Samurai approach should only be taken as a starting point. By no means it's a general strategy, universally valid. As suggested, blogging success can only be achieved through evolution. Don't take for granted that once you have a solid reader-base, those readers will follow you forever if your blog is a static one. People devour content, including images, layout, ideas, and above all, approaches to problems and concepts. Successful bloggers calm such hunger. Summarizing, to grow our blogs we have to discover an approach we can apply to blogging, hone and refine such approach continually, and keep adding new, interesting features to our blog (including layout and content.)
I recommend two basic activities for evolution of our blogs:
- Observation: We have to observe and critically analyze what are doing the successful bloggers (not necessarily in our niche.) Perhaps by following some of their tactics and methods we can accomplish a bigger and more satisfied reader-base.
- Experimentation: The only way to verify that some tactics and methods would work for your blog is to test them out. Fortunately, blogs are very dynamic structures, and hence it's relatively easy to essay new things and modify the approach continually. And if something is not working for you, remove or restructure it as soon as possible. Don't let bad strategies to kill your blog.
Now, let's conquer the blogosphere

The outside wall construction has an inverse relationship to what goes on inside your home. Concrete walls have an express influence on mold growth and are resistant to termites, carpenter ants, and fire. Mold requires an organic material, such as wood on which to grow. PolySteel forms contain NO organic material to promote such growth. Hollow cavities can trap moisture, making traditionally constructed structures vulnerable to mold. PolySteel walls are made of solid concrete and have NO cavities in which moisture can be trapped.
Save on Heating and Cooling CostsPolySteel provides a more uniform and stable temperature environment throughout your home. PolySteel walls exceed the insulating performance of wood framed walls built to R-40 specifications. In fact, the total effective R-Value of PolySteel walls actually exceeds R-50 in many parts of the country. This translates into savings of 50 to 80% on the costs of heating and cooling your home. The end result is that upgrading to a PolySteel home will actually save you money and provide a safer, quieter, and cleaner house. We truly believe that a well-informed consumer will always choose PolySteel!
Protection from Hurricanes and Severe WeatherStructural Strength is a very important factor when building in Eastern North Carolina with our history of hurricanes. A PolySteel home is the safest place to protect you and your loved ones from the dangers of severe weather. PolySteel wall are 2 to 4 times stronger than the maximum design wind load required by the Uniform Building Code. PolySteel walls have been independently tested to withstand flying debris driven by 250 mph winds.
Four Hour Fire RatingsPolySteel was the first ICF (Insulating Concrete Forms) to achieve a full 4-hour fire rating on its forms without any additional wall coverings to assist in its performance. PolySteel is the only manufactured ICF to incorporate Performance Guard EPS Termite-Resistant Insulation. Performance Guard is the only code-approved method for using foam plastic insulation below grade in heavily infested termite areas of the U.S. like Eastern North Carolina.
Use Any Home DesignPolySteel insulating concrete forms allow equal or greater design flexibility than wood, concrete block, tilt-up concrete, or steel frame. With PolySteel forms you can produce a radius as tight as four feet and other deign elements that will give you the freedom to create the building you want. Even if you have a home design in mind, an architect can easily revise any plans to accommodate your plans to integrate PolySteel concrete forms. All conventional interior and exterior finishes are easily applied to PolySteel walls. Drywall, plaster lath and/or paneling can be attached quickly and easily to the galvanized steel attachment studs with standard drywall screws. Stucco lath can be screwed directly into the steel attachment studs providing the secure underlayment required. Synthetic stucco systems can be applied directly to the PolySteel walls. Wood, vinyl, or aluminum siding attach directly to the attachment studs. Brick, stone, or masonry are secured to the wall with conventional ties.
PolySteel is the primary manufacturer of Insulating Concrete Forms in the Nation. Visit the PolySteel™ website for more information and home plans.

Iantha: I like the Victorian charm of this name. I like floral names, but this is a more obscure and really very lovely play on the Ianthe flower. Also I can use the nn Anne which has been one of my favorite names forever but DH doesn't approve
Avalon: My hubby and I both love Arthurian legend and I put this on our list thinking he'd
nix it, but he liked it! It also has Ava as a nn. Its a name that is too popular in and of itself, but an adorable nn.
Elowen: Is so beautiful. Its very popular on nameberry But not where I live. My hubby loves it too and has the feel of Eowyn without the LOTR connection which everyone would think we were doing if we named a child that.
Walter: I love the classic charm of this name! I also love the nn Walt. It will grow well over time and reflects the "elderly" nature of my hubby and I. Our families have always joked about us being an old married couple even when we were in our early 20's.
Ambrose: I love this name and the nn Bo. I find it so dignified and timeless.

Korea Threatens to Kill Korean War Ceasefire As US-China proposal on new sanctions goes to UN today By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted Mar 5, 2013 7:00 AM CST | Updated Mar 5, 2013 7:56 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (25) (Newser) – The US and China have settled on a new round of sanctions against North Korea, and Pyongyang is responding by ratcheting up its usual bluster, threatening to cancel the 1953 ceasefire that ended the Korean War if sanctions go forward and US-South Korean military drills that began March 1 continue. Specifically, the North is warning of "surgical strikes at any time" and a "precision nuclear striking tool" that will seek to "advance our long-cherished wish for national reunification," reports the AP. The US-China deal is aimed at punishing Pyongyang over February's nuclear test, in a joint deal that heads to the UN Security Council today. In addition to new sanctions—whose specifics aren't yet known—the planned resolution enforces current ones, the Wall Street Journal reports. Right now, sanctions include a ban on ballistic missile and nuclear tests and a ban on the import of arms and luxury goods; some in the country face financial and travel restrictions, and the new measures could expand them. China was expected, however, to refuse an oil embargo, believing that such a blow to the North Korean economy could bring refugees to China. The sanctions deal is expected to be adopted this week, says a diplomat.

Career highlights
Television personality Maria Menounos was born in Medford, MA, to Greek immigrant parents on June 8, 1978. At age 17, she began to compete in beauty pageants, winning the title of Miss Massachusetts Teen USA in 1996. Later, Menounos attended Boston's Emerson College. During her senior year, she landed her first reporting gig for Channel One News and soon realized her passion for journalism.
In 2002, the brunette bombshell got her big break when she was hired by Entertainment Tonight to report on music, movies, and fashion. This opened the door to an illustrious career in broadcasting, including a co-hosting position for ET on MTV and VH1. Acting roles soon followed when Menounos booked an appearance on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. She went on to star in recurring roles on several hit shows like The CW's One Tree Hill and Without a Trace on CBS. In 2005, she made her big-screen debut in the superhero action flick, Fantastic Four. In 2006, Menounos became a special correspondent for Access Hollywood until 2011, where she left to join forces with Extra and compete on the ABC reality series, Dancing with the Stars. In addition, she created the online broadcast network AfterBuzz TV with her long-time boyfriend and business partner, Kevin Undergaro, has a reality show in production, and is the author of two best-selling books: The Everygirl's Guide to Life and The Everygirl's Guide to Diet and Fitness.
And speaking of fitness, the tenacious TV host swears by spinning, krav maga, basketball, her love of WWE, and a healthy diet to maintain her seriously svelte figure. After all, the sexy star knows a thing or two about weight loss; she lost the 40 pounds she had gained during college and went from a size 14 to a size 4 by paying close attention to her portion sizes. "It's a balance. I definitely don't deprive myself," she says. "I eat whatever I want, but in smaller portions. If I indulge, I'll balance things out by switching to salad and fruit for the next meal." —Kristen Aldridge

Sean McCorkle to CagePotato: F--- you
Earlier this week, UFC President Dana White put ESPN on full blast for a negative piece on the UFC pay structure. Now Sean McCorkle has done the same to the popular CagePotato.com
ATTN: Cage Potato
First off, Fuck you.
Secondly in your latest "piece" you're talking shit about my next opponent Mike Gordon being 1-0. If your bush league ass "writers" did their job they'd see that Mike Gordon is 4-0 with 4 early first round stoppages.
You then trash my Bellator opponent saying he's lost 10 of his last 12. You fail to mention he won 16 of his first 18.
All you idiots ever talk about is how much every one of my opponents suck. So who would you suggest I fight? Andrei Arlovski? Fedor? Brett Rogers? Oh wait, that's right, all 3 of them turned down fights with me in the past 3 months. Who are these stellar fighters not signed with the UFC or Strikeforce that I'm ducking?
I could put together a home made website in 30 minutes that would blow your piece of shit website out of the water. And I can for damn sure outwrite any of your fake ass journalists.
PS: only bloody elbow sucks more than you guys, and it's close
From: CagePotato
Taking a shot at you because your opponents have bad records was a lazy, hack move, and I regret it. It made me feel bad to see this thread, because I'm not out to hurt anybody's feelings. But I'm an asshole, and people like me can't help ourselves.
Still, can we put a few things in context? According to this website's records, Mike Gordon is 1-0 in sanctioned competition, and 3-0 in unsanctioned fights. Sherdog doesn't even list those, so I don't know if they were amateur fights or what. I'm not gonna call the dude 4-0 as a pro if there's nothing to support that.
Nobody in the world is expecting you to fight "stellar" fighters. It sucks that Arlovski, Fedor, and Brett ducked you, but I think your fans and supporters just want to see you fight opponents who don't have losing records, or .500 records, or guys who have less than five pro fights.
I didn't trash your Bellator opponent so much as mention a fact that I thought was important. Okay, he won 16 of his first 18. And now he's on a really alarming losing streak. Before Jeffrey Dahmer raped and murdered 17 men and boys, he raped and murdered zero men and boys. Does that make him a good person?
I'm sorry to bring Dahmer into this. But come on man, don't smash me for stating the obvious.
From: Sean McCorkle's Stats">Sean McCorkle
Here's the problem with guys like you. If you're going to take shots at somebody, at least be funny. But when you have no valid point, and no sense of humor, then it's strictly just bashing someone just to do it.
And this is like the 10th time you guys have done it to me. I have thick skin, and let everything people say roll of my back to a degree. But when a website who I have never done anything wrong to, have never turned down an interview request, and have no personal problem with, makes it a point to trash me every single time I do anything, even if it's winning a fight, it gets on my nerves.
Bloody Elbow does the same shit to me, and I have never done anything to anyone there. Ask anyone who has ever requested an interview of any kind, and they'll tell you I'm the nicest, most accesbile fighter in the business. I've done web radio shows who probably have 3 listeners, and stayed on for an hour.
If you want to blast me, fine. But either be accurate or be funny when you do it. Don't suck at both.
PS: Fedor's "sanctioned record" is 4-3. You guys are idiots
RyanTheMasterBader - Arlovski, Fedor, Rogers...all ducked me.
Well duh! Do you blame them? "I'm Fedor and trying to make a name for myself beating the best in the world after my three big loses...hmm....let's fight McCorkle in a regional show and risk losing all my credibility to a guy who's claim to fame is a few fights in the UFC and a Internet battle with Struve that he clearly didn't back up......yeah.....Dana will sign me then!"
These fights are good for McCorkle, but senseless to the three dudes you mentioned. At best, maybe Rogers but shit, is Cain duckin you too? Lol. You gotta earn the right to fight these guys, not claim there ducking you aside from the fact you don't fight in there org. You just want Fedor regardless of not defeating ANY big name?
McCorke, you ain't helpin your UFC case much, just stfu and fight. I wanna watch you fight, not listen to you complain and verbally stroke Dana's nuts.
Sorry dude, respect your skills but.....It seems you like to be more of a keyboard warrior oppose to a caged warrior. Phone Post
Thacommish -
lol what in the fuck could andrei gain from fighting ray lopez that he wouldnt get from fighting Sean McCorkle, except maybe a much easier fight. Seems to me mccorkles name holds more weight than his... and brett rogers just lost to eddie sanchez man, there is nothing ridiculous about calling them out considering their resume of late
From: Sean McCorkle
This. And the idiots who say those guys won't fight on a small promotion, the Arlovski fight was offered to him on Pro Elite, by Pro Elite. He declined twice and fought Ray Lopez and Travis Fulton instead. The Fedor fight was offered by on Dream, by Dream. They decided to fight a 0-2 Judo guy instead. The Brett Rogers fight was in the process of being put together for a show at the Target Center in Minneapolis, and they declined.
I'm sure Fedor beating the 0-2 proved a lot more than a win over me would. And Arlovski beating Ray Lopez and Travis Fulton definitely shows he's back

I had never heard of McCorkhole until the Nose interviewed him. His southern jibber jabber probably developed over years in a relationship with an abusive and violent dominatrix. He needs a group hug, not a group stomping. Isn't this almost same thing?

Yea, fuck the potato cage. Potatoes need to be free.

Jeff was promoted for the fight as "one of the most decortated American grapplers" ever, which happens to be true. Aside from his ADCC win, he enters, and regularly wins, international grappling tournaments which are not on the radar of most UG members... nevertheless, Monson is regarded as one of the most successful American submission grapplers on the planet. Agree or disagree.. fine... but that was the marketing ploy.. They placed a 'Great American Grappler' against 'Fedor' ... and guess what.... it worked...they sold the place out, and apparently had good enough viewership to get another go.
1/23/12 11:14 PM by RyanTheMasterBader
Stop crying, Monson is a 60 fight vet. Take it like a man Sean and keep fighting in the cage and not online. If you're as good as you say it's going to happen. I like you as. Fighter but......man you're a annoying attention whore.
1/23/12 11:07 PM by RyanTheMasterBader
Man, get off Hunts nuts! You're like Eddie Bravo praising his win over Royler, it doesn't make you a legend or something lol. You wanna play MMA math Sean? You lost to Morcraft, who lost to Barry, who lost to Tim Hague, who lost to Chris Turnscher or w.e.....see where I'm goin here?P.s I'm tired of everyone sayin shit like "I dare you to say this to his face ya puss, you would never say this if you saw him"Bullshit! What are you going to do Sean? Beat me up over my comments and how I feel a out you? You're a good fighter, but an even better whined and nut higher of the UFC and Bellator lately hypin up UFC contracts and the Bellator champ. You also have a big fan following of nut huggers who defend you and will always post behind you with "oh! McCorkle just owned him! How does seans dick taste?" Get off the net and go fight, I'd rather see ya fight oppose to listen to ya bitch.
1/23/12 6:28 PM by Zionist Zodiac Zephyr
I can assure you the great body of Russia hates Communism in its old and modern format. Monson is simply sympathetic to the theoretical ideology that was Marxism–Leninism. Who isn't once its understood but its practically unworkable as has been proven.
1/22/12 8:04 PM by lifeaftrprison
Because Monson has a look of a stereotypical American cage fighter. Tattooed and muscular or maybe because he is a communist supporter and they like that.

Each week Ross Rubin contributes Switched On, a column about technology, multimedia, and digital entertainment:
Palm relayed this bit of Treo trivia to exemplify its commitment to preserve a good user experience even in the face of competitive pressures or fashion fads. Another such example is the trend toward sleek, slim smartphones such as the Motorola Q or T-Mobile Dash. The Treo 680's sculpted exterior slightly reduces its profile, but the phone still appears chunky compared to the pocket-friendly profiles of some competitors. Critics are vocal in wanting a thinner Treo or other smartphone from Palm, but are silent in acknowledging the reduced battery time that would likely mean.
Should Palm be commended for its convictions or persecuted for its pigheadedness? For now, high-mindedness is yielding high returns. Contrary to many reports, the Treo 680 is not aimed at consumers per se, but rather at a wider net of mobile professionals. Palm has sweetened the deal in more ways than one by adding candy-colored shells to its venerable design.
The company that once owned (and nearly reclaimed) its own operating system continues to devote great attention to software, and it has included some impressive applications for the aging Palm OS, now known as the "Access-Powered" platform. Among the sleekest are a mapping application takes advantage of Google's local data prowess and a TypePad client that provides the industry's best mobile blogging experience.
Such well-implemented functionality is bound appeal to consumers on the leading edge, but Palm will need to dilute its dogma if it is to swim beyond the smartphone lake into a broader ocean of what is becoming intelligent feature phones such as the RAZR-thin Cingular 3125 developed by HTC. Palm has not yet diversified its handset portfolio the way it did in the PDA market that it pioneered and still leads. However, if it's looking for an example of a company that recently broke with its own conventions, it can turn its attention northward toward Research in Motion.
Like Palm, RIM gradually evolved its flagship handset line over many years, adding multiple carrier support, larger screens, color, GPS, push-to-talk and other enterprise-focused enhancements. Its first foray into the consumer market, the 7100 series, narrowed down the basic BlackBerry proposition with a well-received keyboard compromise.
However, with the BlackBerry Pearl, RIM has slimmed down and stepped up, making great strides in industrial design, multimedia and a mini-trackball that succeeds the scroll wheel that has long been a BlackBerry staple. Perhaps even more importantly, the Pearl has transformed RIM's image and from a stodgy provider of enterprise messaging technology to one of hip consumer handsets, revitalizing the BlackBerry brand.
If RIM could do this, a more consumer-entrenched brand such as Palm should certainly be able to as well. Combining the design makeover of the Pearl with the software savvy of Palm could yield the biggest advance in smartphone design since the original Treo 600.

This wednesday night (29 Sep 2004, 18:30 Sydney time -- GMT + 10), we will be webcasting the Sydney VFP User Group Meeting. The video of the presenters' screen will be streamed, as will the audio of their presentation.
The Melbourne VFP User Group will be gathering at the MS theatre at the Como Centre to view the webcast en masse, while I expect other VFP developers from around Australia will log in from their desks.
This is a test run for the more general case of webcasting User groups of many different flavours over the next few months. We're hoping to lean a lot from this first pass, and will keep striving to make this the best experience possible.
Details of the content of the meeting are (from the User Group's web site):
Next meeting (29 September 2004) This month we will have 4 mini-talks of 20 minutes each covering the following topicsI want to know how to... Use the Microsoft DateTimePicker ActiveX control in VFP - Craig Franklin Call a secure web service in VFP - Ekasenna Tjhauw Use XML data islands and XMLHTTP - Paul Hemans Use MemberData in VFP9 - Castro Shehata The format for this month will be a little different to usual, in that the aim is to cover 4 topics briefly by way of an eye-opener for people who haven't used them before.All attendees are encouraged to come with their own ideas to contribute, as there is no one 'right' way to do things.We will also have our regular Q+A session at the end. This meeting will be combined online with the Melbourne VFP User Group!

I've just spent 4 days of last week on Readify's excellent Industrial Strength .NET Course, lead by the incomporable Mitch Denny. Things really started to hot up on the last day when we discussed the merits of natural vs artificial primary keys in tables (try as we might, we couldn't get Mitch to see the light <g>). Mitch also proposed the ditching entirely of SQL to be replace with an object-oriented construct something like:
objectDataSet Customers = new objectDataSet("select * from Customers");objectDataSet ImportedCustomers = new objectDataSet("Select * from ImportTable");objectDataSet MissingCustomers = ImportedCustomers - Customers;
objectDataSet Customers = new objectDataSet("select * from Customers");
objectDataSet ImportedCustomers = new objectDataSet("Select * from ImportTable");objectDataSet MissingCustomers = ImportedCustomers - Customers;
An interesting overloading concept, but it leaves a lot of questions unanswered.

Woodcreek clinches berth in soccer playoffs
LOOMIS — To the victor usually go the spoils, but Del Oro High School's boys soccer team caught a healthy break Tuesday despite losing to Roseville 4-2 on Senior Night.
By virtue of Woodcreek's 1-0 victory over Nevada Union, Del Oro's ugly loss to Roseville didn't mean the end of its season. The Timberwolves (5-4-1) clinched the Sierra Foothill League's No. 2 seed for the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs with the win.
Del Oro (4-5-1) and Nevada Union (4-5-1) now will play a one-game playoff at 4 p.m. Thursday at Rocklin High to determine the third and final playoff berth from the SFL.
Granite Bay (9-1) won the SFL championship. Woodcreek's playoff berth was achieved under Cory Clonce, the school's first new boys soccer head coach in 20 years.
Del Oro's Senior Night was spoiled until the team learned of its potential to make the postseason. The Golden Eagles entered the match in a three-way tie with Nevada Union and Woodcreek.
Del Oro and Nevada Union split the two-game season series 1-1. Each team won at home by identical 2-1 scores.

What is wrong with the GOP? Are they blind, reckless or just plain mean? They must see that reinforcing their stereotype as the Party Of The Rich is not a good idea. They have unanimously said "No. Hell, no" to every budget proposal floated their way, yet are willing to make an exception to give money to the rich. Rich. Rich. Rich. Rich. Rich. Rich. Rich. Curious mantra.
Now. During an election year. It's like hitting the upstairs maid with a splintered 2-by-4 while conducting interviews for a new butler. Word gets out. People talk. You hear things. Republican senators are responsible for blocking three attempts to extend unemployment insurance and bragging about it. And had been determined to continue filibustering until Democrats come up with cuts in other programs to make it budget neutral. Which makes a certain amount of sense. "You want to eat this week? Then put that video game back on the shelf, mister. And don't give me that face. I'll give you something to cry about."
The problem is, Republicans triple-lock their wallets only when a Democrat is in the White House. When George W. Bush was president, they used pneumatic tubes to siphon money from the mint as quickly as possible. A trillion for the Pharmaceuticals here. A couple trillion for some pre-emptive wars there. Another trillion in tax cuts for rich people. In 2002, somewhere between his third and fourth myocardial infarctions, Dick Cheney told Treasury Secretary O'Neill, "Ronald Reagan taught us deficits don't matter." And apparently neither do heart attacks. Does this guy even have a pulse anymore?
Because of Congress' inaction, 375,000 American workers are losing unemployment benefits every week. Its obvious Mitch McConnell's intent is to deny Obama any political victory while sucking up to the Tea Partiers with his newly unearthed fiscal responsibility, but he might want to remember people without jobs can read newspapers, too. As a matter of fact, they often have an excess of free time to campaign and stuff envelopes and get out the vote.
It's easy to understand why Republicans hate giving money to the poor. Poor people are icky. And they never know which fork to use ... and those shoes!
But most importantly, poor people seldom top any respected list of major political campaign donors. As opposed to the rich, who understand that money gets you access and access provides influence and before you know it, you're in the back room of the Capitol Grille on your second pitcher of Margaritas helping write regulations that allow lethal doses of magnesium in 2 percent milk.
So, though they talk the budget-neutrality talk, they don't walk the budget-neutrality walk. At the same time, they're wishing the jobless lots of luck fighting with dogs for food, they're also lobbying to extend Bush's expiring tax cuts to the rich, and budget neutrality can take a flying leap off a short pier into a crashing sea of toxic sludge.
See, tax cuts are different. That's not welfare for the rich; that's playing the magic note on the economic flute that calls the Trickle-Down Fairy to fly from capitalist heaven and carry us away to a nice, warm, free-market bath. I don't know about you, but I'm getting a mite suspicious of the alkaline nature of this whole trickle-down thing. Good time to invest in a trickle-down umbrella. Available for one day only this Nov. 2.

|Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in food animal practice.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 1483904 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|We attempted to determine the extent to which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are used in the treatment of food animals, and whether withdrawal times for milk and slaughter are recommended to clients. A survey questionnaire was mailed to a stratified random sample of 2,000 veterinarians whose practices were at least half food animals. A cross-sectional study was used to examine the responses to determine whether differences existed on the basis of a respondent's geographic location, number of years since graduation from veterinary college, and percentage of practice devoted to beef and dairy cattle. The response rate was 71% (1,424/2,000). Of those practitioners responding, 93% (1,325/1,424) reported using NSAID, with approximately 57 (751/1,322), 24 (327/1,322), and 18% (244/1,322) of respondents reporting use more than once a week, once a week, and 1 to 2 times per month, respectively. Dairy practitioners reported more frequent use than did beef practitioners. Use of flunixin meglumine was reported more frequently than the use of aspirin, phenylbutazone, or dipyrone. Approximately 88% (1,146/1,306) of respondents that used NSAID did so in combination with antibiotics. Withdrawal times for milk and meat were made on the basis of guidelines for the antibiotic. When using NSAID alone, recommendations for withdrawal times for milk and meat varied extensively. Overall, practitioners indicated that NSAID were useful and necessary for the treatment of food-producing animals.

Half Day Tour of Peterhof (Petrodvorets)
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Half Day Tour of Peterhof (Petrodvorets). What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
We visited on a day that Peterhof was closed. Since we had tickets, we were permitted entry. WOW!!! No tourists and the palace almost to ourselves. I could not have requested a better guide. The day was perfect. Highly Recommend!!
The Guide was very helpful and showed us lots of intersting sites.
She also helped by knowing where to access the venue and ensure that we did not have to queue for a long time, we also managed to view special events when they happened rather than miss them.
Overall we were very pleaed with the tour of Peterhof and would use Viator again.
Terry and Jenny Thirlwell
One of the most impressive places to visit in the world.
Don't miss it.
Friendly and informative guide- would highly recommend this tour!
This trip was all I had hoped for. I missed the Peterhoff in 2010 when I was here. Our tour guide, Lyda, was incredible, sharing her knowledge and patiently answering questions.This was the highlight of my stay.
Excellent Tour!! Lidia our tour guide was very kind and knowledgeable, so we learnt a lot during this trip!! additionally, it was amazing being able to see the fountains!! it is really something worth to see!!
This tour was amazing!
LIda, our guide again, took us to Peterhof which is a fascinating and beautiful compound. She highlighted the key elements of the estate, providing sufficient time to walk around the gardens. Lida has a good command of English.
FYI -- When available, go by hydrofoil instead of car because it is a shorter ride and allows additional time at Peterhof: the highlight of St. Petersburg.
Excellent tour. Guide very informative, efficient and personable.
Guide, Margarita, was superb.
Always could be better, but it was good. I liked this trip and our gid Katya.
Carl H
Fantastic palace. Lovely knowledgeable guide, Leta.
Vladimir the guide was really informative - length of time of tour is not long enough to fully absorb the sights
Happy with the tour. We had time to go through the palace and to tour the gardens though it might have been nice to have a lttle longer to spend wandering in the grounds. The small tour group was good.
We had a tour guide for just the two of us, Marina from Marie Rose tours spoke very good English and was very knowledgable about the history of the Peterhof. We really enjoyed it
My family of 4 (2 adults, 2 small children) truly enjoyed the 5-hour tour of Peterhof Palace. Thank you very much to Lida, our tour guide! Even the kids enjoyed her stories of the history while inside the Peterhof Palace museum. We all liked the Peterhof Palace gardens and fountains.
We very much enjoyed the half day tour to Peterhof. Lidya was an excellent guide. She was knowledgeable about her subject and sensitive to our needs. The palace was very quiet, due to the time of year and the fact that the fountains were not yet working. This meant that we could take our time in looking at the palace and could see the rooms at their best, without being full of visitors. The trip to Peterhof was interesting and Lidya pointed out various places of interest. We were transported to Peterhof in a clean,comfortable car, driven by an excellent, courteous driver. It was an excellent half-day tour.
Our guide was very personable, fluent in English and extremely helpful and informative.
wonderful, the tour guide was terrific,came right to our hotel for pick up and drop off
Great tour with an excellent, well informed guide.
Max N
This was an excellent trip. The guide was very pleasant and very knowledgeable.
This was a very good tour which provided exactly what it said it would. The guide was excellent. She explained everything well in an interesting way without overloading us with information. We would have preferred to have extra time to wander the gardens by ourselves but did not have the confidence to let the car go and use public transport later.
A very friendly guide with good English and excellent knowledge, an altogether most satisfying tour.
Joseph A
This is magnificent! Highly recommended!

It may help to switch from "inline" to "side-by-side" for the diff viewing, since that should make it easier to tell what's changed.
You can also customize the CSS to change the colors used for your installation. It should also be possible to provide "alternate stylesheets" that the user's can choose from in their browser. I'll look into this later and try to post an example.

Michigan State football player Travis Jackson leads the seniors and the fans in the 'Yes!' cheer during a halftime ceremony honoring their Rose Bowl win on Jan. 7, 2014.

Daniel Bryan is not a cable TV subscriber, despite starring on one of its top-rated shows. So it was good fortune that Bryan, one of World Wrestling Entertainment's most popular stars, was on the road in a hotel when Michigan State hosted Ohio State in basketball Jan. 7.
"All of a sudden, I get a text from one of our other Superstars, Titus O'Neil," Bryan told USA TODAY Sports. "It said, 'If you're in your hotel room right now and have ESPN, turn it on.'"
Bryan took O'Neil's advice and saw Travis Jackson, a junior center on Michigan State's football team, standing on the basketball court at the ...

GLOCESTER - Anne Ejnes, a member of the Foster-Glocester and Glocester school boards, is saying the Glocester committee has no future plans to discuss child care services at the school. Rather, the agenda item of last month requested that the schools work more cooperatively with child care providers in town.
She told The Valley Breeze & Observer, "The issue of care at the school is settled for now because of the vote at the meeting in August."

Academics skeptical of Obama's message on higher education
SCRANTON — In a corner of the state with the highest sustained jobless rate of his administration, President Obama on Friday intends to speak to young people about the importance of getting a college degree during what experts call a stagnant economic recovery.
His speech at the private, two-year Lackawanna College is the last stop of a two-day bus tour that began at the University at Buffalo and stopped at State University of New York and Henninger High School in Syracuse. He said his administration will address a "crisis" of college affordability with proposals to help middle-class families.
In Buffalo, Obama announced he would have the Department of Education develop a "college scorecard" by 2014 to rate schools based on the value students get for tuition, taking into account the percentage of students receiving Pell grants, average student debt incurred by graduates, graduation rates and average tuition.
"Higher education is still the best ticket to upward mobility in America, and if we don't do something about keeping it within reach, it will create problems for generations to come," Obama said.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus criticized the bus tour before it began, telling reporters, "The Obama presidency and Democratic policies have made life harder for young Americans."
The president's visit comes as his popularity slumps. Despite Obama's renewed focus on the economy since mid-July, he scores worse with voters on that topic than he did in June, according to a mid-August Gallup survey. His 35 percent approval rating on the issue fell 7 percentage points, and his ratings on taxes and the federal budget deficit each fell 5 points.
Almost six years since the start of the Great Recession, "the unemployment rate remains well above the postwar norms," said Allan Meltzer, a Carnegie Mellon University economics professor. "Much of the decline in the unemployment rate, from a peak above 10 percent to the low 7 percent range, is the result of workers leaving the labor force."
The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre metro area holds the distinction of having Pennsylvania's highest jobless rate — 9.2 percent for 39 consecutive months, according to the state Department of Labor and Industry.
Five months of decreasing unemployment in the area happened in small increments, such as a one-tenth of a percentage point drop in June.
"Scranton has become the face of the slow economic recovery during the Obama years," said Christopher Borick, a political science professor at Muhlenberg College in Allentown. "Unemployment in the area remains stubbornly high and economic growth fairly limited."
Many jobs recently created are part-time, low-wage positions, Meltzer said.
"Although the president talks about aiding the middle class, the spread in the income distribution is greater than when he took office, and the poverty rate has increased to a record high," Meltzer said.
A record number of Americans — 46.2 million, or 15 percent of the population — are classified as poor, largely from lingering unemployment. The Associated Press reported on a July survey that found four out of five adults struggle with joblessness, near-poverty or reliance on welfare at some point in their lives.
Obama's campus speeches stress to younger people the relationship between higher education and jobs in a changing economy. The White House website links education with "true middle-class security."
But, Borick said, "post-secondary education needs to be nimble enough that individuals struggling in the new economy can find ... opportunity."
A recent Pew Research Center analysis of census data shows 36 percent of adults ages 18 to 31 live with their parents — the highest share in four decades.
"Lack of economic independence is the basic reason," said Richard Fry, senior research associate at Pew, who noted that "all age groups were hard-hit by the recession, but especially the nation's young adults."
The job market "hasn't been particularly robust," Fry said. "Whether it is even appropriate to even label it a recovery is a little bit of a judgment call."

SACRAMENTO — A former California state parks employee says she told state attorneys that her department was hiding about $20 million in a special fund several months before officials announced discovering the surplus money, according to a sworn declaration filed in court Tuesday.
The development is the latest revelation in a budget scandal that has state officials on the defensive and threatens to undermine Gov. Jerry Brown's push for a voter-approved tax increase.
The court declaration from Cheryl Taylor, a former parks employee, raises further questions about what state officials knew, when they knew it, and what action, if any, they took before the California Natural Resources Agency revealed the hidden pot of money in July.
Such special funds contribute to the state's general fund budget each year as lawmakers take millions of dollars in loans from the funds to close budget deficits.
To plug this year's budget gap, the governor proposed closing 70 state parks to save $33 million over two years, prompting a scramble by local governments and nonprofits to raise money and keep most of the parks open this summer. Brown also has pushed a message of fiscal responsibility as he has urged voters to increase the state's revenue by approving a tax hike in November.

I sprayed the EDT version on one of my scarfs and when I took it off my guy friends around me asked for the scarf because it smelled so good! They just kept sniffing it! I just bought a new bottle because I ran out and couldn't be happier! If you want guys to chase you, buy this!

I LOVE this scent! It's so different from anything I own. If I don't feel like wearing anything too heavy, this has become my go-to fragrance. You can spray it on without thinking twice. It's a very warm, vanilla scent. Whenever I wear it someone always wants to know what it is.

I think Amber Romance is my favorite from among the VS Fantasies. As other reviewers have said, it is a warm, rich vanilla type smell�Vanilla Lace with more personality. I can distinguish the black cherry and cr�me anglais very well, and I am surprised how appealing the combination is. The mist lasts and lasts when sprayed on my hair and clothes. I love waking up to the scent of Amber Romance on my pillow. Since it is a relatively simple vanilla aroma, I find that it layers well with a variety of other fragrances. My favorite combination is Amber Romance and Dream Angels Divine, but I have also layered it with Versace Versense for a citrus oriental sort of scent. It is great, and I think I shall buy bottles upon bottles of it in the future because it is good on its own or with others. Plus I think you could wear it all year round, though it is better for the winter and fall.

I never learned to appreciate this scent until now. With fruity scents dominating what seems to be every fragrance brand, after awhile, it became too overwhelming and everything seems to smell like everything else... if only just a little. Amber Romance stands out from the pack because although there is a hint of cherries to sweeten and soften, the amber and vanilla wraps you in a sophistication that doesn't cross into the cloying. Heady without being heavy, a scent that strikes a delicate balance of sweet and sexy. This unusual scent among the lineup has stood the test of time and remains to be one of the top sellers for a reason. It's a classic and happy to add this to my collection. LOVE!

Beautiful, warm scent! I have the body wash, body lotion, and the body splash and I like to layer them because on their own none of them are particularly long-lasting. The scent is simply amazing. I can smell vanilla and sandalwood and just a little fruitiness. It smells so warm and natural!

This is quite simply the best smelling VS splash of all time. Let me just say, I don't wear this is a perfume so to speak (hello I'm not in high school anymore) I spray this in my hair when it's still wet and it smells AMAZING until I shower again. People are always asking me what kind of shampoo i use.....as if the scent of shampoo would last that long or smell that good!! Victoria's Secret I've noticed in the last few years has gone from an upscale establishment with sexy perfume and lingerie to a store for teens and preteens with their cheesy lingerie and cotton candy smelling perfume. That's why I can't stand most of their body splashes as they are all sickeningly sweet, except this one. Will continue to buy it forever.

I liked this scent way more than I thought I would! Reading the reviews on here, I was worried about how this would smell, because I was reading that this smelled "old ladyish" or whatever. This doesn't smell old ladyish to me at all! It's a nice warm scent with a hint of cherries (to me it smells like a berry, but not cherries) and it's just lovely in general. I would not wear this in the summer though.
My sister even loves this and she's so picky when it comes to body sprays! I 100% recommend.

I've been working on the same bottle for more than 3 yrs and it has not gone rancid or faded. Initially I used this product everyday, but quickly tired of it. The scent is heavy and warm, but it doesn't linger for long and requires lots of reapplication throughout the day. It's also such a unique smell that it is difficult to layer with perfume.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
This is my new favourite for colder months. It's a lovely cozy and warm oriental scent that isn't cloying to me (probably because the body mist version isn't too strong). It's a simple scent that smells of vanilla, sandalwood and a bit of cherry. Not too sweet like some of the other scents I've tried from VS and comfortable to wear. I like spraying my room with this too. :)
Age: 19-24
Skin: Dry, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Grey
This is probably the most long lasting scent out of the three or four VS body splashes that I have. It's a sweet warm scent that is perfect for any time of the year. It's a quite harsh scent. Something about it reminds me of Britney Spears's Midnight fantasy, I think it's because they both have black cherry among the ''ingredients''. It's a very sexy and seductive scent but I don't think it's very suited for young girls. I quite like the bottle and I should give it credit because it survived five plane trips in my suitcase...not bad for a 6 dollar fragrance.

With over 950,000 developers using Facebook Platform to build applications that engage millions of users every day, we are focused on making the developer experience as positive as possible. As part of our ongoing effort to improve our communication with our developer community, we offer you our latest monthly roundup of the announcements, new features, and updates to Facebook Platform that occurred during July, 2009.
New Features
- Encourage visitors to your website to become fans on your Facebook Page with the Fan Box, a Facebook Connect social widget.
- Render Facebook Connect features in other languages so you can provide your users with a consistent and seamless user experience.
- Target your Facebook ads to people who have never used your applications to find new users or to existing users of your applications to encourage repeat visits.
- We released a beta API method, intl.getTranslations which can retrieve the native strings, their translations, and each translation's approval status and approver.
- So we can provide developers with a faster and more reliable code base, as well as a more robust environment where you can build your applications, we've started refactoring Facebook Platform code. You don't have to modify any of your code to account for the refactoring. We'll keep a running list of API methods as they get refactored. We hope to complete this process by mid-September.
- With our growth to over 250 million users making geographic networks obsolete, we're deprecating regional networks September 30, 2009. After that date, calls to users.getInfo or queries on the user FQL table, won't return regional networks for affiliations; we will still return corporate and educational networks though.
- Following up on the launch of usernames, the user, page, and profile FQL tables now contain the indexable field username. Additionally, the url field in those tables now returns the URL containing the username.
- If you installed a Fan Box on your website, you can reference your own CSS so you can style it.
- We deprecated the Publisher Mode setting in the application settings editor as well as the admin.getAppProperties and admin.setAppProperties. Publisher integrations that were configured for the legacy/wide setting now appear inline. For help creating a fluid layout, see this blog post from April.
- You can now choose between giving your users an email address or a URL for them to follow when they want to contact you for application support. Visit your application's settings page in the Developer app to check it out.
- As of July 15th, 250 million people are using Facebook to stay updated on what's happening around them and share with the people in their lives. We couldn't have done it without you, developers.
- Familiarize yourself with the new advertising guidelines, which take effect August 3, 2009.
- Share your thoughts and experiences developing your Facebook Connect integration in this survey.
- We started testing new privacy settings with a small percentage of users.
- Using Facebook's Live Stream Box, people viewed the Michael Jackson memorial service on their favorite website – CNN, E! Online, ABC or MTV – and participated in the conversation about it with their Facebook friends or others watching around the world. Facebook has become a central place to view the news about Michael Jackson and share in a tribute to his life and the mourning of his death. There were a total of about 1 million users posting approximately 800,000 status updates on Facebook related to the live online broadcasts by CNN, E! Online, ABC and MTV of the Michael Jackson memorial service.
- Read The Facebook Doctrine: Gaming And The Future feature in Gamasutra magazine.

This is the place where I, Philo, re-post my favorite Puzzling Evidence Show radio show podcasts, BUT IN HIGH-QUALITY sound for the delicate, more discriminating listener.
Each week, except on the 5th Friday of any month with a 5th Friday, Captain Puzzling Evidence himself guides the Show through its weekly "flight" over Berkeley and the Internet along with me, Dr Philo Drummond and long-time show regular, the great Dr. Howlland Owll. Sometimes we have guests in the studio. Sometimes the callers try to penetrate the firewall. Sometimes they succeed.
According to Puzzling Evidence himself; deranged "edits" segue into a cascade of echoing glossolaliac madness, while voicing the lyric ruminations of the free-falling brains of disintegrating personalities.
The Puzzling Evidence Show, founded circa June, 1982. One of KPFA's oldest shows. "More than an hour, less than a show"
Press play to try again.
You can get it here.

NASHVILLE, TENN. (November 28, 2011) – "Vince has so much talent and he's so loveable, so sweet, so unassuming, you love him with all your heart," says Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Rodney Crowell of Vince Gill in Backstory: Vince Gill. "Then you want to break his fingers 'cause he's so damn good." The bio doc premieres Wednesday, November 30, 8:00 p.m./Eastern on Great American Country (GAC).
While still in high school working as a multi-instrumentalist side man, to lead vocal duties and chart success with Pure Prairie League, back to side man work with the Cherry Bombs, music was his focus. "I was never shy about being a side man and I'm still not. I love it, I almost prefer it," Gill says. "It's still my favorite chair to sit in."
Married and with a young daughter, Gill moved to Nashville in '82 after being signed to RCA Records. Though a priority at the label and loved by the staff, his three albums yielded no real hits and suffered sluggish sales. Creative differences with the label led to Gill asking for a release from RCA . "From a business standpoint, I got it instantly," says then RCA chief, Joe Galante. "From an emotional standpoint, I was devastated."
Soon Gill was signed to MCA Records, a move that paired him with old friend and mentor, Tony Brown. "When I Call Your Name," a hit single from his debut MCA disc, catapulted him to stardom in 1990. "I think everybody felt a sense of relief," Gill remembers. "I'll never forget it…how many people were just like, 'Yes!'" The hits kept coming as did the awards: Gill has earned 20 Grammys and 18 CMA Awards just to name a few. He hosted the CMA Awards for 12 years, nabbing two Entertainer of the Year prizes along the way.
Gill's contributions outside the music business are as impressive as his guitar skills. He's raised more than $5.5 million for junior golf programs throughout Tennessee and continues to lend his time and talent to countless nonprofit efforts around the country. A scratch golfer, Gill spends nearly as much time holding a golf club as he does a guitar and it's on the links that another side of his personality shines through. "He is 99% of the time the mildest, meekest, most gentle guy you'd ever want to see," says Belmont University basketball coach and friend Rick Byrd. "But the one percent on the golf course, you better just ride along and be quiet."
He married singer Amy Grant in 2000. "What I remember most is when we finished our vows and kissed each other, then we hugged and I thought, 'Okay, whatever comes, if I can just face it with this guy, it's going to be okay,'" Grant says of her wedding day. Blending their two families took time; Gill recalls his wife's vision, "Amy's dream would be that we would be the Partridge Family, that we'd have the multi-colored hippie bus, camp out and play hippie music festivals all around the world." And although his induction to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2007 was a great honor, he admits that walking oldest daughter Jenny down the aisle during her 2010 wedding tops the list. "I'd have bet my life savings that my dad would've been the one just blubbering down the aisle," Jenny recalls. "But it was just the opposite. I made it halfway and just lost it. He held my hand really close and said, 'I got you buddy, I got you.'"
Even with 26 million albums under his belt, the Grand Ole Opry member continues to look forward to what's next. "I'm so compelled at this stage of life to do so much more music than I've done to this point and it's really fun. It feels like being reborn, I want to get better, do more, make bigger contributions and really leave a legacy behind."

You are just so genuine. I absolutely love you. Please come back to Jacksonville Oregon and play at the Britt. I still laugh about your comment about "the cinnamon roll the size of my face"…You and Amy…OMG! What a MEMORABLE night. You are a legacy. Love to share my paradise here in Southern Oregon. (Not on the golf course!) As I tell the guests and visitors to this area "There is so much more than Ashland and Shakespeare"…come back. We love you!!!!
