The Labrador duck (Camptorhynchus labradorius) is an extinct North American bird. The Labrador Duck has the dubious distinction of being the first endemic North American bird species to become extinct after the Columbian Exchange. It was already a rare duck before European settlers arrived and became extinct shortly after. As a result of its rarity, there is not an abundance of information on the Labrador Duck but there is some such as its habitat, characteristics, dietary habits, and reasons behind extinction. According to the Naturalis Museum there are 54 specimens of the Labrador Duck preserved in museum collections worldwide. However, according to Chilton, there are actually 55 specimens of the duck around the world.[2]
The Labrador duck is considered a sea duck. A basic difference in the shape of the process of metacarpal I divides the sea ducks into two groups:
- Bucephala and the mergansers.
- The eiders, scoters, Histrionicus and Clangula, and Camptorhynchus.
The position of the nutrient foramen of the tarsometatarsus also separates the two groups of sea ducks. In the first group the foramen is lateral to the long axis of the lateral groove of the hypotarsus; in the second the foramen is on or medial to the axis of that groove.[3]
The Labrador duck was also known as the pied duck and skunk duck, the former being a vernacular name that it shared with the surf scoter and the common goldeneye (and even the American oystercatcher), a fact that has led to difficulties in interpreting old records of these species. Both names refer to the male's striking white/black piebald coloration. Yet another common name was sand shoal duck, referring to its habit of feeding in shallow water. The closest evolutionary relatives of the Labrador duck are apparently the scoters (Melanitta).[4]
The female plumage was gray. Although weakly patterned, the pattern was scoter like. The male's plumage was black and white in an eider like pattern, but the wings were entirely white except for the primaries. The trachea of the male was scoter like. There was an expansion of the tracheal tube at the anterior end and two enlargements (as opposed to one enlargement as seen in scoters) near the middle of the tube. The bulla was bony and round, puffing out from the left side. This asymmetrical and osseus bulla was unlike that of scoters; this bulla was similar to eiders' and the harlequin duck's bullae. The Labrador Duck is of the most enigmatic of all North American birds.[5]
The Labrador duck had an oblong head with small, beady eyes. Its bill was almost as long as its head. The body was short and depressed with short, strong feet that were far behind the body. As per the feather, they were small and the tail was short and rounded. One last known fact of the Labrador duck is that it belonged to a monotypic genus.[6]
The Labrador duck migrated annually, wintering off the coasts of New Jersey and New England—where it favoured southern sandy coasts, bays, and inlets—and breeding in Labrador in the summer. John James Audubon's son reported seeing a nest belonging to the species in Labrador, but it is uncertain where it bred. Some believe that it may have laid its eggs on the islands in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.This duck used to live on sandy sheltered bay, inlets, harbours, and anywhere that was on the shore of the east coast. The breeding biology of the Labrador Duck is unknown, but it is believed that they breed in Labrador and Northern Quebec.[7][8]
The Labrador duck fed on small molluscs, and some fishermen reported catching it on fishing lines baited with mussels.[9] The structure of the bill was highly modified from that of most ducks, having a wide, flattened tip with numerous lamellae inside. In this way it is considered an ecological counterpart of the North Pacific/North Asian Steller's eider. The beak was also particularly soft, and may have been used to probe through sediment for food.[9]
Another, completely unrelated, duck with similar (but even more specialized) bill morphology is the Australian pink-eared duck, which feeds largely on plankton, but also mollusks; the condition in the Labrador duck probably resembled that in the blue duck most in outward appearance. Its peculiar bill suggests it ate shellfish and crustaceans from silt and shallow water. It is possible that the Labrador Duck survived by eating snails.
It is thought that the Labrador duck was always rare, but between 1850 and 1870, populations waned further.[9] Its extinction (some time after 1878)[10] is still not fully explained. Although hunted for food, this duck was considered to taste bad, would rot quickly and fetched a low price. Consequently, it was not sought much by hunters. However, it is thought that the eggs may have been over-harvested, and it may have been subject to depredations by the feather trade in its breeding area as well. Another possible factor in the bird's extinction was the decline in mussels and other shellfish on which they are believed to have fed in their winter quarters, due to growth of population and industry on the Eastern Seaboard. Although all sea ducks readily feed on shallow-water molluscs, no Western Atlantic bird species seems to have been as dependent on such food as the Labrador duck.[11]
Another theory that was said to lead to their extinction was that there was a huge increase of human influence on the coastal ecosystems in North America, causing the birds to flee their niches and find another habitat.[12][13]These ducks were the only birds whose range was limited to the American coast of the North Atlantic, so changing niches was a difficult task.[14]The Labrador Duck went extinct in the late 19th century. The duck soon disappeared after the first wave of European settlement. The bird's specialized ecological niche is believed to have played a major role in its extinction.

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Casa de Luz - San Diego
by mutant_pie
Review: I've eaten a vegan diet since 1996. I've explored restaurants in NYC, San Francisco, Portland OR, Minn/St.Paul, MN, and Los Angeles and I can tell you the main entree plate here qualifies as gourmet quality food. Fresh, flavorful, balanced in the contrasts of flavors and textures, well presented. For $10. How do they do it? They don't have a menu and offer one entree plate at a time. This lack of choice allows them to excel at one thing and keep the price low. They do have a small salad bar, and offer two different soups. I'm a robust adult male weighing 185 lb.s and I tell you that for my main meal of the day the entree plate is just right, and that the addition of soup and/or salad would be too much food for me. They open early and stay open late. They change the main entree plate for the three different meals; breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but I've only done the lunch. Organic, vegan, gluten free, gourmet quality, free wifi, 7 days a week from 7am-10pm for reasonable prices. I've not seen anything quite like it before. They just don't know how to market this gem. Also not well advertised is that for those with extreme food allergies they offer a simple macrobiotic plate.

PERKS Program
Updated: Friday, December 6 2013, 11:18 AM EST
It's one of the "PERKS" of the program.
As News 13's Jay Siltzer explains in today's Health Alert, some local knee replacement patients are getting back into life quicker than ever.
"I had to walk with a cane...a stick."
That's not the case anymore since Mara Roth had knee replacement surgery at Mission Hospital in Asheville. She got back on her feet quicker than expected and with less pain than imagined after taking part in PERKS, a program for early recovery knee surgery.
To start with, after surgery, Mara kept her leg elevated and immobilized in spongy foam.
Mara Roth, knee replacement patient, "the foam just kept it really really straight which is important any way."
Dr. David Jarrett, Asheville Orthopedics, "the difference of swelling in the legs that we see early and even when they come to the office for their post-op follow-ups is dramatically different."
Since the PERKS Program began 15 months ago, more than 850 patients have completed it, most leave the hospital one day earlier at an individual cost savings of $900.
Dr. Jarrett, "it's not all about cost. The sooner a patient is back home with family and in a familiar environment, returning to a normal life. That's the reason we did the surgery in the first place."
Jennifer Soule, physical therapist, "our goal from the outset is to get them back to being able to fully function."
And that's just what happened for Mara, one of the PERKS of surgery.
Physical therapists say patients who take part in perks leave the hospital in two days. They often have better range of motion than patients who don't take part in the program and leave in three days.

The leaves were falling
And you were mine
You called me Sara
A couple times
We spent December
With the TV and wine
And we were perfect, perfect
And there were rumors
And there were lies
The holy rollers
They don't ask why
Why I wore starlight
Why you would fly
Why it was perfect, perfect
Heaven, heaven
So call it youth
Or foolish pride
I hang my halo
I know I tried
And let them watch
With prying eyes
As we roll on
As we roll on
And it was long ago
And far away
I wish I knew then
What I knew today
That you're an angel
What can I say
But it was perfect, perfect
Heaven, heaven
Perfect, perfect
So long ago so far away
Wish I knew then what I know today
We're staring at the open road
But you never know and you never know
And when you go to set asail
I wish you know that I wish you will and I
never meant to say goodbye
But you'll never know and you never know
So call it youth
Or foolish pride
I hang my halo
I know I tried
And let them watch
With starry eyes
As we roll on
As we roll on

Calculate plant surface area with smartphone app
Posted on Aug 15 2014 | IANS
New York, Aug 15 : Researchers have developed Easy Leaf Area - a free software written in an open-source programming language - to allow users to accurately measure leaf area from digital images in seconds.
Leaf measurements are often critical in plant physiological and ecological studies. Traditional methods have been time consuming and sometimes destructive to plant samples.
"It has always been a challenge to measure leaf surface area without damaging the plants or spending long hours in the lab. I decided to attempt to write software to automatically measure leaf and scale area from smartphone images," said Hsien Ming Easlon, a researcher at University of California, Davis.
Leaf area measurements are essential for estimating crop yields, water usage, nutrient absorption, plant competition and many other aspects of growth.
The digital images were taken with the Apple I-Phone 4 but any current smartphone camera or digital camera will do.
Once the images are uploaded to a computer, Easy Leaf Area can process hundreds of images and save the results to a spreadsheet-ready CSV file.
The Windows executable software is free to download and can be modified to suit specific experimental requirements.
By automating data analysis, researchers can save countless hours of manual labour, improve the accuracy and consistency of their results and reduce potential damages to their plant samples.
The study appeared in the journal Applications in Plant Sciences.

Doug and the staff was very thorough and provided a rather comprehensive kind of snap shot of how your vehicle is performing. He is definitely the type of mechanic, where you would take your car in to where your car was at two hundred thousand miles, if you do what he says. He is very preventative. Not the cheapest men on the block, but he really takes care of you.Charles – Verified CustomerDecember 05, 2012

Well they were very flexible. I explained my situation and they actually they delivered my car to me. It was one of those situations where they were really nice about it all. I had to go back to Illinois while they worked on my car and I caught a limo from the airport to a hotel and they were nice enough to deliver my car for me to the motel so I wouldn't have to get it when it was all done. I have had two cars repaired by them and I was very satisfied both times with the work they have done. Just so that you know, my insurance company is USAA and they are a very good insurance company and they recommended that company to me, so that was enough for me to get there and I was pleased once I got there.Show more reviewsTim – Verified CustomerMarch 18, 2012

Statistics alone do not feed the hungry, create jobs, or provide social services - but they are critical in helping us to better understand the challenges, and to design more effective policies for inclusive, sustainable and resilient development. In our race against time to 2015 on the MDGs, we must ensure that our development efforts reach the people most in need. To do this we require better, more complete data.

We are living on a planet rich of diversity. Only tolerance can ensure the survival of mixed communities in every region of the globe. However, no single leader, country or institution can do everything. But each of us, in our own way, can do something. On the United Nation Day this year (October 24), let us reaffirm our individual commitment and our collective resolve to live up to the ideals of the United Nations Charter and build a better world for all.

Vader's Hope by RWstudiosWatch
©2012-2016 RWstudios
A traditional oil on wood panel of one of the coolest bad guys you love. I went old school on this piece using loose brush strokes and color to define this moment in Vader's life. (better photo when I get a chance)
Very nice work
Awesome work! The lighting, the mood... I love it!
wheres this scene taken from? or did you just make it up? it looks brilliant....
not sure where this scene was from I believe possible one of the video games....I changed the color scheme from the photo reference to make the mood a bit different
My gosh, fantastic work! Loved the effects in the background.
Nice work on the reflections

I am an educator and American citizen who has lived in Chile for 30 years. I have a wilderness home in the Andes of Central Chile which I occasionally open to guests. I have a summer camp for children that I've had for 20 years and look forward to with great anticipation every January/February. I love to travel and visit friends all over the States and long to go to Spain and Italy and one day return to India and Sri Lanka. I'm a pretty mellow self-reliant traveler who likes to read and sample local cuisine.

How to Access
Select Components → Banner → Banners from the drop-down menu on the back-end of your Joomla! installation.
The Banner Manager is where you can edit existing Banners and create new ones. You can also navigate to the Banner Client Manager and the Banner Category Manager.
Column Headers
Click on the column heading to sort the list by that column's value.
- Checkbox. Check this box to select one or more items. To select all items, check the box in the column heading. After one or more boxes are checked, click a toolbar button to take an action on the selected item or items. Many toolbar actions, such as Publish and Unpublish, can work with multiple items. Others, such as Edit, only work on one item at a time. If multiple items are checked and you press Edit, the first item will be opened for editing.
- Name. The name of the Banner. You may click on the name to open the Banner for editing.
- Client. The Client for this Banner. Clients are entered using the Banner Client Manager.
- Category. The Category this item belongs to. Clicking on the Category title opens the Category for editing. See Category Manager - Edit.
- Published. Whether the item has been published or not. You can change the Published state by clicking on the icon in this column.
- Order. The order to display items. If the list is sorted by this column, you can change the order by clicking the arrows or by entering the sequential order and clicking 'Save Order'.
- Sticky. Whether or not this Banner is 'sticky'. (Need to enter explanation.)
- Impressions. The first number is the actual Impressions so far and the second number is how many Impressions were purchased by the Client. For example, '21 of 200' or '21 of Unlimited'. An Impression is how many times the Banner has been displayed on a page.
- Clicks. The first number is the total number of clicks that have been made on the Banner since the counter was reset. The second is the number of clicks on this Banner as a percentage of the number of Impressions for this Banner. For example, if a Banner has 48 Impressions (in other words, has been displayed 48 times), and the number of clicks is 4, then the percentage would be 8.33% ((4/48)*100).
- Tags. Optional Tags to be used for displaying specific Banners based on the content of the Article being viewed. If the Banner module Parameter 'Search By Tag' is set to 'Yes', Banners whose Tags match the Keywords entered for each Article will display when that Article is being viewed.
- ID. The ID number. This is a unique identification number for this item assigned automatically by Joomla!. It is used to identify the item internally, for example in internal links. You can not change this number.
- Display #. The number of items to display on one page. If there are more items than this number, you can use the page navigation buttons (Start, Prev, Next, End, and page numbers) to navigate between pages. Note that if you have a large number of items, it may be helpful to use the Filter options, located above the column headings, to limit which items display (where applicable).

Sales 2.0: The Bottoms-Up Sales Model
Sales 2.0 is the new way of selling mobile enterprise apps and services. Instead of selling to the enterprise via an expensive sales force, you sell directly to your target customers, often employees at the enterprise.

Mario Kart
Gorgeous cartoony looks, fantastic online multiplayer, excellent gameplay
Frame-rate suffers in split screen, wheel a touch awkward
It has been a long time coming, but finally the Wii has some Mario (and friends) karting action on the Nintendo Wii. Initially expected as one to hit shortly after the Wii finally reached our shelves, it's been a long 18 months for fans of the series unique brand of karting goodness.
After the lukewarm reception of Mario Kart: Double Dash on the GameCube, it took a fantastic handheld offering on the DS to restore faith in the long running series. The DS version tossed away many of the flaws that the series had been bloated with over the years, and went right back to sheer fun-packed racing.
This Wii version thankfully travels down the same route. Out go the dual racers, lengthy tracks, and huge vehicles. And in come tight, exciting courses, and the kind of driving-focused thrills that caused so many of us to love the earlier Mario Kart titles to such an incredible degree.
One large change from the other games is the inclusion of the plastic wheel that comes with the game. Obviously with the major Wii control method being so wildly different to what has come before, something brand new had to be introduced to give us the same kind of tight racing excitement we all adore.
The wheel itself works solidly enough. Once you're used to spinning such an item through the air with no attachment to anything else, you'll be drifting around corners with ease.
Its major downfall is the sheer lack of weight. Since it does have the unnerving feeing of twisting a small piece of plastic around, the action on-screen certainly doesn't feel as tight or thrilling as it always has before. Thankfully you can utilise your classic controller or old GameCube pad to get a much tighter grip on your racers' moves.
Single player goes down the traditional racing title route of unlocking racers, tracks, and vehicles as you progress through the game's multiple cups. Though the initial 50cc races featuring purely karts feel relatively easy (though a perfect way to introduce newcomers to the series), once you jump up to 100cc, and finally 150cc with the addition of bikes too, you'll realise that you need to be solidly on the ball to keep all two/four wheels on the track.
While the single-player mode might only last a handful of hours – though it's a fun ride thanks to the intelligence of your opponents – it's online that's bound to offer the most fun. It only takes a few button presses, and a couple of seconds wait, and you're right slap bang on the starting grid. It's a testament to the potential of Nintendo's online network that makes Mario Kart easily the greatest online racer (if you ignore PGR4) of the last few years.
On the track it's much the same as always. You'll be slip-streaming your opponents, picking up power-ups to obliterate your fellow racers, and simply enjoying all that the exciting courses and vehicles have to offer.
For Mario Kart fans, this is a real trip back to top form. It's great fun in single-player, but toss in the online options and you've an absolutely essential Wii purchase for anyone with any interest in driving fun.

Where's the judge? No ones qualified. I think someone needs to be judging the judge.
I sent this to many many places in the net, including WHITE HOUSE, CONGRESS, SENATE, SPECIFIC POLITICIANS...corrupted and not corrupted,...and also to tv and rotatives tabloids....somes are ok with this, and somes hate my guts and want my head...but 'FEAR' and 'INTIMIDATION' are words not found in my dictionary;
Anyway here is my take;
THE GEN PETREAUS FACTOR...SO...'OBAMA LOOKS GOOD'...will he?
Mr Obama was waiting, hoping, and desperately looking for an 'scape window' to his ongoing decadence n public credibility.
And so, the oportunity was presented; GEN McCHRYSTAL a very good soldier, but NOT! A POLITICIAN...is replaced by GEN PETREAUS , also a good soldier...BUT ALSO A POLITICIAN.
And so, GOSSIP TOOK THE TOLL AND 'THE EVENT' CAME TO BE.
Now, Mr Obama hopes to look good and regain some of his massively and ongoing lost 'populist credibility' because he...'demonstrated good judgement' for to put into place someone(GEN PETRAUS) who is well accepted by the american public for he is/was very well successful in IRAQ...
...(ALTHOUGH OBAMA WAS OPOSED ALL THE TIME TO THE SURGE IN IRAQ....but now this SUDDENTLY comes very handy for him....understand everyone?)
Actually , Obama did not not move this not even a centimeter for was 'THE PRESIDENTIAL CONSORTIOUM' the force behind to replace GEN McCHRYSTAL WITH GEN PETREAUS.
As we all know Obama is just but THE FRONT-FACE, MESSENGER, PROPAGANDIST, 'SPEAKER-IN-CHIEF', if you will,...in reality an employee of this 'PRESIDENTIAL CONSORTIOUM' WHICH HAS A SABOTAGE AGENDA AGAINST OUR COUNTRY.
ALL IS/WAS WELL ORCHESTRATED...the oportunity appeared and...
'Obama did a good use with it'....remember the mantra?..."NEVER LET A GOOD CRISSIS GO TO WASTE...".....so here is the case.
Now, Obama looks good for he is strong and decisive, concern and also...'was mad'....
....actually ALL IS JUST ANOTHER POSTURE...ANOTHER SCAM.
Here is this question; - WILL THE AMERICAN PUBLIC FALL FOR THIS ONE?...YES?...or...NO?
Let's recall another thing; - DOES ANYONE OUT THERE REMEMBER THE STINGY TROOP SENDING TO AFGANISTAN BY ONLY 30K, WHEN ORIGINALLY GEN McCHRYSTAL INDICATED THAT 45K WERE NEEDED?...the fractional 30k troops were sent after so long time - of deliberations- and was - as everyone knows - a political decission - to presents concern in the war there in Afganistan.
But we know how idiotically information was 'telegraphed' to the enemy,when Obama said that a troops pull-out is for to be done in a a year and half.
WE ALL KNOW THAT THIS CHARACTER OBAMA DOES NOT GIVE A DIME FOR OUR NATIONAL SECURITY, NOR FOR OUR CONSTITUTION,OR LAWS,...MUCH LESS FOR THE OPINION OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC...does he?
Can this guy(Obama),...or any of his associates be trusted?...YES?...or...NO?
Take it from there.
Opinions welcome.

Sitar poems
Željko Sitar
A desire is liberated question
and a duty is closed answer.
My joyous daybreak would happen
before i lost my passion
Why I have lost my memories
that I had this divine arrangement?
I have drowned in a sea of unfulfilled wishes
and my duties are remained chained.
I have lost in a game among light and shadow
and they have came to charge my secret numbers.
I liberate my duties
to see your priceless beauty,
to make my desires
finally accomplished.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
"We are deeply disappointed in the Court's ruling today. While we are reviewing the decision, we will continue our outreach efforts aimed at helping high-hazard employers learn how they can improve workplace safety and health before an OSHA inspector arrives at their door.
"We continue to believe that the Cooperative Compliance Program would benefit employers, employees and taxpayers by enabling OSHA to focus our enforcement efforts on the most dangerous workplaces. More than10,000 employers who signed up last year to participate in CCP believed it was beneficial to them.
"Today's ruling does not affect our program of targeting inspections to the most dangerous workplaces. We will continue to zero in on workplaces where high injury and illness rates show that people are being hurt."
Background: Today the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against OSHA's Cooperative Compliance Program in a suit brought by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other organizations. The program, which OSHA viewed as an enforcement strategy and the Chamber saw as a regulation adopted without public comment, had been stayed by the Court since February 1998.

Dorkly: I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the chances of you meeting porn star Jenna Haze, supermodel Heidi Klum, or actress Eva Longoria to do the nasty in real life are slim to none. That's why we have pictures on the Internet and locks on our bedroom doors. But there is another upside to this fact we nerds can use to our advantage: if anyone thought your unhealthy obsession over that infamous Lara Croft nude hack made you creepy, feel free to point out that your chances of meeting the shapely Ms. Croft are just about the same as those mentioned above.
In other words, it's totally cool to fantasize about fictional people. And I'm gonna add some fuel to that fire of passion with this sultry list of sexy video game characters. Bow chicka wow wow!

Parade's End was the big winner at the Broadcasting Press Guild Awards in London last night.
Picture: Tom Stoppard - The 39th Broadcasting Press Guild (BPG) Television and Radio Awards held at One Whitehall Place - Arrivals - London, United Kingdom -...
World War I drama, Parade's End was the big winner at the Broadcasting Press Guild Awards, picking up four top honours, with ITV's Jimmy Savile documentary picking up an award also. Parade's End was named best drama series, while stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall won best actor and best actress.
Sir Tom Stoppard – for his adaption of Ford Madox Ford's novels - won the writer's award. The role saw Cumberbatch take on a more serious role that his Sherlock antics, and provided Dowton Abbey fans with some useful fodder when their favorite period drama wasn't on. Onto more serious, but no less dramatic viewing, The Other Side of Jimmy Savile, which showed several interviews with alleged sexual abuse victims of the DJ and TV presenter, saw ITV pick up best documentary. The piece catalyzed a UK-wide police investigation into the abuse scandal, and led to the departure of the BBC's then director general, George Entwistle. And it was the interview with Entwistle – carried out by John Humphrys on Radio 4's Today programme – that won the Harvey Lee Award for outstanding contribution to broadcasting. The judges said the BBC veteran's "tenacious interviewing of politicians and others in the news [had] made his name a byword for fearless inquisition". The hugely popular Twenty Twelve picked up the entertainment/comedy award for it's satirical take on the preparations for London 2012. Although, with its apparent "uncanny ability to predict real-life events," one would suggest it wasn't so satirical.
Oh what the fluff, here's the winners in full:
Best Single Drama - The Hollow Crown: Richard II on BBC Two
Best Drama Series - Parade's End on BBC Two
Best Single Documentary - Exposure: The Other Side of Jimmy Savile on ITV
Best Documentary Series - Inside Claridge's on BBC Two
Best Entertainment/Comedy - Twenty Twelve on BBC Two
Best Factual Entertainment - The Great British Bake Off on BBC Two
Best Multichannel Programme - Dynamo: Magician Impossible on UKTV's Watch
Best Actor - Benedict Cumberbatch in Parade's End and Sherlock
Best Actress - Rebecca Hall in Parade's End
Breakthrough Award - Adam Hills for The Last Leg
Writer's Award - Sir Tom Stoppard for Parade's End
Radio Broadcaster of the Year - Charlotte Green
Radio Programme of the Year - Soul Music on BBC Radio 4
Innovation Award - BBC Olympics 2012
Harvey Lee Award for Outstanding Contribution to Broadcasting - John Humphrys
Benedict Cumberbatch and Parade's End Writer Tom Stoppard

High Ph + High Ta: Is My Plan Correct?
Posted 02 April 2012 - 05:04 PM
Posted 02 April 2012 - 06:49 PM
Can some please explain the differences and similarities between TA and pH...in layman terms. Does a higher TA usually mean a lower pH or are they completely separate? Any info into explaining the meaning behind these numbers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
In GENERAL. there is a very loose inverse relationship between TA and PH. Higher TA GENERALLY means lower PH. Every grape, every vineyard, every season, every ferment, etc. is different. There is no formula for calculating or predicting one from the other. Remember this and you will be a happier winemaker.

Andy, great question. This is a fairly confusing topic. Like gregorio said, there is a loose correlation. Usually, when people say TA, they are talking about "titratable acidity." TA can also mean "total acidity" which is a very different thing. Here is a very summarized explanation of pH: the measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) floating around in a solution. So, an "acid" has the ability to "donate" a hydrogen ion (H+) to another molecule.
The opposite of an "acid" is a "base" which has an -OH so it can "accept" the hydrogen ion. When a pH is low there are a lot of hydrogen ions (H+) floating around. In grape juice, TA (titratable acidity) measures mainly the tartaric & malic acid. The titration method uses sodium hydroxide (NaOH) so the available H+'s from tartaric & malic acid are "donated" to the -OH of sodium hydroxide. But, other H+'s that weren't free floating also become "available" because of the high pH created by the sodium hydroxide (NaOH). For example, if I remember correctly tartaric acid has 2 H+'s it can donate, but at juice/wine pH only 1 H+ can be donated (at a pH > ~2). As the pH changes the previously unavailable H+ becomes available (at a pH > ~6). Those pH's are just guesses, I can't remember the exact pH's were the H+'s become unbound.
My philosophy is to pay attention to pH before fermentation & before malolactic fermentation. If a pH is below ~3.75 a lot of the spoilage microbes are not able to function. TA, on the other hand, is really more important when the wine is finished as it helps with mouthfeel and the preceived acidity in a wine. TA can also help with harvesting decisions, but, I like to follow brix & pH much more.

Respond to Review of Planeta Vegano
by mik
Review: The first time it took me a while to find this nice little shop. It could very well be a dream come true if you are looking for anything vegan, but if you have other demands (organic, fair trade, etc.) the options will be limited considerably. Who needs white chocolate which travels all the way from Australia, when a Euro-company has that kind of product? Either way, they definitely deserve some props for unapologetically promoting veganism and animal rights. I heard from staff that business was not doing excellent, so any animal-friendly individual should consider supporting this establishment.

Yahoo today confirmed the persistent rumors that it would acquire MyBlogLog.
According to Forbes, the deal was worth about $10 million.
MyBlogLog is a tool that allows bloggers to put faces to their community. " If blogging was originally about building a community and having a conversation with people in that community, then MyBlogLog provides the missing link that makes those connections more real," wrote Chad Dickerson, senior director of the Yahoo Developer Network, on Yahoo's Yodel Anecdotal blog.
The move fits Yahoo's increasing focus on using social media as a differentiator, including recent acquisitions of Flickr, del.icio.us and Upcoming.
"Taken together, these vibrant web communities continue to provide Yahoo with a deeper understanding of communities and user activity that reach beyond the Yahoo network," Dickerson said.
MyBlogLog's 5-person team, including CEO Scott Rafer (former Feedster CEO) and founders Eric Marcoullier and Todd Sampson, will join the Yahoo Developer Network group.

Motivated by the desire to meet the pastoral needs of the faithful, and faced with the reality of a limited number of priests, Bishop Bradley has called for the implementation of a Diocesan Pastoral Plan. This plan will introduce a new structure of "parish collaboratives" – a grouping of three to four parishes led by one pastor.
During this presentation, Bishop Bradley will offer details on the Diocesan Pastoral Plan.
Some of the important topics covered will include:
• Vision for our Diocesan Church
• Why the Pastoral Plan is necessary
• How collaboratives will be grouped
• How priests will be assigned
• The role of the lay faithful and our call to holiness

The car park outside St Mary's Church in Yate
Alexandra Womack, reporter covering Yate, Chipping Sodbury, Winterbourne, Frampton Cotterell, Rangeworthy, Wickwar, Hawkesbury, Iron Acton, Coalpit Heath and Old Sodbury / / News
A ROW over an area of land leading to a Yate primary school has broken out between the town council and the district authority.
Yate Town Council and South Gloucestershire Council are at odds over the ownership of land at St Mary's Green, a car park area leading to St Mary's Primary School.
The town council owns the land and says it has always been happy for the primary school to use the car park but does not want to dispose of the site. The dispute was sparked by South Gloucestershire Council's application to register prescriptive rights to access the area. Town councillors were left furious by the move, which they have described as 'hostile'.
They have written to the authority advising 'that the town council was surprised that the application was lodged in such a hostile manner without prior discussion with the town council, which is not in keeping with the parish charter'.
Members say they have always allowed the school to use the land, with their permission, and are happy for the arrangement to continue. But they say they will oppose the application.
Cllr Chris Willmore said if all else failed, the Land Registry would be asked to step in.
"We are now getting to the point where the Land Registry will have to negotiate and will have to talk South Gloucestershire Council into negotiating," she said.
The town council's solicitor has been asked to oppose the authority's plans.
A South Gloucestershire Council spokesman said: "We can confirm that the council applied to register prescriptive rights in relation to the car park at St Mary's green. This was a routine application submitted according to normal procedure.
"The council will be meeting with Yate Town Council soon to review the application and discuss any associated issues."
