Why Linux Sucks on Desktops and How to Save Your Ass
In terms of pure resource usage, performance, stability and security Linux wins. Pick any distro (from Debian, Scientific, OpenSuse, Mint, Arch, PCLinuxOS...) and compare it with Windows 7, you'll know what I mean. Discard X-desktop and the stuff beyond, pure linux shell is perhaps the most powerful tool for computing. I've never been a Windows guy. But quite often I came back to it at odd times when I am almost pissed off by the so called direction (or lack of it) in the Linux world. So what're those minor glitches that sour the desktop experience.

Wine 1.9.9
Six free open source alternatives to Windows 10: Chrome, Ubuntu, Solus and more, what's the best alternative to Windows OS?
Windows 10 has generally be viewed as a welcome successor to Windows 8, both by businesses and individuals. However it has also come under scrutiny from users that are concerned about data privacy. So why not opt for a free Windows 10 alternative?
Yet another GTK+ update
GTK+ 3.20 was released a while ago; we're up to 3.20.3 now. As I tried to explain in earlier posts here and here, this was a pretty active development cycle for GTK+. We landed a lot of of new stuff, and many things have changed. I'm using the neutral term changed here for a reason. How you view changes depends a lot on your perspective. Us, who implemented the changes, are of course convinced that they are great improvements. Others who maintain GTK+ themes or applications may have a different take, since changes often imply that they have to do work to adapt.

Life Stories: Lessons unlearnt

My sister Beth died 25 years ago - killed by a drunken driver while her unborn child lay cradled in her belly. The man who killed her was 63 - Beth was 26. Her daughter had 14 more weeks to go to start her life.
The price of my sister's life was $2000 and a six-month suspended licence - for him. For me and my family, it has been years of grief, loss and anger. I clearly remember someone telling me it would get easier with time and you do get used to the absence, but never to the loss.
Beth Watkinson was a bright, blue-eyed blonde who had found her calling as a healer. She was one of the first massage therapists in New Zealand and was training as a herbalist. She was engaged, planning a wedding, happy and full of life, until the 26th of June, 1987, when her life was taken.
Today I look at the penalties for drunken drivers and I realise we have learnt nothing in the last 25 years. We still treat these deaths like a bit of an "oops" because we still see alcohol abuse as a bit of a joke. That's the real tragedy.

ABSTRACT. Shanghai and Singapore are two economically vibrant Asian cities that have recently adopted creative/cultural economy strategies. In this article I examine new spatial expressions of cultural and economic interests in the two cities: state-vaunted cultural edifices and organically evolved cultural spaces. I discuss the simultaneous precariousness and sustainability of these spaces, focusing on Shanghai's Grand Theatre and Moganshan Lu and on Singapore's Esplanade—Theatres by the Bay and Wessex Estate. Their cultural sustainability is understood as their ability to support the development of indigenous content and local idioms in artistic work. Their social sustainability is examined in terms of the social inclusion and community bonds they engender; environmental sustainability refers to the articulation with the language of existing urban forms and the preservation of or improvements to the landscape. Although both Shanghai and Singapore demonstrate simultaneous precariousness and sustainability, Singapore's city-state status places greater pressure on it to ensure sustainability than does Shanghai, within a much larger China in which Beijing serves as the cultural hearth while Shanghai remains essentially a commercial center.

Camouflage: This Season's Hottest Print
Camouflage is the new neutral this fall, showing up on runways and celebs in all sorts of pieces. Once merely the pattern worn by hunters and soldiers, this earthy print is now seen on stylish shoes, jackets, tops, and accessories of all kinds and in every price point. We spotted Sarah Jessica Parker in this little camo-print blazer while walking her kids to school, and our own Alyssa Edwards of the blog Sincerely, Truly Scrumptious pulled together her tips for wearing this trendy print. If you haven't jumped on the camouflage bandwagon, now's the time. It's the must-have print for this season!

Affordable Measures
02 Dec 2013
GLOF risk reduction effort should focus on innovating affordable community-led measures
Shoko Noda
The Hindu Kush Himalayan region in Asia is home to over 200 million people. In addition over a billion people downstream depend on the rivers and waterways that are fed by these glaciers. As the impacts of climate change become apparent, glaciers in these mountain ranges appear increasingly vulnerable to changing climactic conditions.
Loss of glaciers means loss of critical storehouse of freshwater for future generations. It also means an increase in the glacial related disasters, such as glacial lake outbursts floods (GLOFs). Thousands of glacial lakes have already been formed behind the thinning and unstable ice dams. The sudden collapse of such dams can cause catastrophic floods that destroy lives, forests, property, farms and infrastructure. The devastating power of GLOFs can reach hundreds of kilometers downstream uprooting communities and infrastructure in their wake.
Even large scale international assistance may not be adequate to address the enormous scope of the challenge. There are over 20,000 glacial lakes in the Himalayas and in Nepal alone 3 are considered to be in potentially dangerous state, according to a 2009 study by International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). As the global temperature rise many more glacial lakes would join the danger list. This calls for broad partnership to develop affordable and easily replicable solutions to the glacial lakes and accompanying challenges.
Catastrophic event like a GLOF can reverse many decades of development gains and can cause serious setbacks in socio-economic progress. The ensuing flood from glacial lake outburst in Dig Tsho Lake in Nepal in 1985 is a dramatic reminder of the tragedy in the making.
With discussion on impact of climate change gaining prominence, the focus, of late, has been rightly on the receding glaciers and the threat from GLOF. But the challenge so far has been the ability to identify and develop scientifically sound, affordable and cost-effective options for GLOF risk reduction.
Most mountain communities are not technologically sophisticated and installing expensive technology raises serious questions about maintenance and sustainability.
Reducing threat from GLOFs is an expensive undertaking at the moment. But it need not be that way. Encouraging innovation that leads to affordable and quickly replicable models should be the focus. This would require collaboration and partnership between knowledge organizations, scientific institutions and development partners to develop simple and effective technology that is easy to install to reduce water from glacial lakes and is more cost effective to maintain. Educating the communities on installing low-tech community based early warning system should also be a priority.

- #SDG16 The fact that hardly 14% of the human rights related recommendations get implemented has concerned the parliamentarians. On Monday, the Legislature Parliament's Committee on Social Justice and Human Rights organized an interaction with various stakeholders to take stock of the overall situation of human rights in Nepal and the challenges in realizing them. "It is not a pleasant situation that only 14% of its recommendations have been implemented", said Chair of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal - NHRC, Nepal Hon. Anup Raj Sharma as he addressed the MPs on NHRC's experiences and the difficulties it is facing in relation to implementation of its recommendations given to the government. Deputy Country Director of UNDP Sophie Kemkhadze appreciated Nepal's achievements against the millennium development goals (MDGs) and urged all to think through the newly adopted Sustainable Development Goals. "Development is a comprehensive idea and any development works should account for the human rights based approach. Justice and human rights are the fundamental tenets of the SDGs and that is attainable through inclusion, participation, empowerment and accountable system," she said. The programme, co-organised by the National Human Rights Commission and the Parliament Support Project of UNDP, had around 50 participants including 13 sitting parliamentarians, prominent human rights activists, academicians, high ranking officials of various government offices, among others. #SDG16 3 hours ago

MBA students Raman Sohal and John Ginther both aimed to become involved in some kind of research as part of their studies at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management, but it's hard to tell if they knew just how intensely involved in that project they would become.
Ginther, a 24-year-old who is also pursuing a master's degree in global affairs, and Sohal, 34, have been poring over data through the course of the school year part-time, and this past summer, have been working out of St. Michael's Hospital full-time.
"Research is one of my primary passions, so it was nice to find something like this for the summer," Sohal says.
While it's common for PhD students to lead research initiatives at universities, post-secondary institutions are starting to see the value in including MBA students in the process, bringing their management and business skills to the table. As research assistants, Ginther and Sohal are working with medical professionals and university faculty, and are using data from 80 different types of health-care providers in order to develop a system to evaluate the performance level of health providers in poverty-stricken countries.
That system will help resource-strapped health-care providers use what they have to help patients to the very best of their ability, without unnecessarily draining other areas of the clinic or hospital.
"We want to create value as a business school. We want to do things like improve people's health," says Anita McGahan, the associate dean of research at Rotman, who adds that the benefits of initiatives go back to the university while also better-equipping students for their future careers. "These projects are making our research better. And I think it's also setting these students up to be management leaders."
York University's Schulich School of Business is similarly blazing trails in other disciplines. This year, they are launching the country's first master's of science program in business analytics — the practice of acutely analyzing stats to predict outcomes of business decisions, as made famous by the Oscar-nominated film, Moneyball. Students in the MBA program also participate in research initiatives in the form of case studies, in which findings are presented to students, who are given the opportunity to raise significant questions or critique the results.
Markus Giesler's forthcoming report on the marketing strategies employed by Botox, the anti-aging treatment, is one such study. Originally, Giesler hypothesized that the success of the controversial product was a simple case of what he calls "epidemiological diffusion theory" — that the technology was introduced and, gradually, gained traction among consumers because it worked. For eight years, Giesler would discuss the topic with students, who completely altered the direction of the study.
Giesler's findings, which will appear in the November issue of the Journal of Marketing, are now much more complex. He claims instead that Botox's success is actually attributed to the marketing strategies developed in direct response to negative, or "doppelgänger" brand images developed by competitors or critics of the product.
"Students learn that the marketplace is a complex social system," Giesler says. "Our students know that they shouldn't trust whatever knowledge comes their way. We need a generation of managers who are smarter than what we've seen in the economy in the past, especially in light of the crises we've had, who have an inside view on how knowledge is created. Now that they have the information, they know how to ask the right questions."
As well as participating in the creation of knowledge, MBA students are also able to use it for practical purposes.
Dr. Alim Pardhan, an ER physician at Hamilton Health Sciences with an MBA from the Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario, conducted research for a pharmaceutical company that students were to treat as a consulting engagement. Working with a team with expertise in multiple disciplines, such as engineers and biologists, the 33-year-old was given a problem — a mysterious one, since Pardhan and his colleagues had to sign a nondisclosure agreement — that they were to solve. Starting from scratch, Pardhan and his group brainstormed, conducted the research and prepared a full report of recommendations, which they presented to the vice-president of the company.
As a doctor who would like to use his business skills to bridge the gap between health professionals and administrators, Pardhan says the project was extremely valuable.
"A lot of it was learning how business plays into the delivery of health care in Canada and in Ontario," he says. "In medicine the focus is narrower. You have one patient in front of you and you solve the problem of that patient. We were looking at the bigger issue, doing a lot of research around what the major issues are and what problems we had to tackle to help this particular company."

And after the case was finished, Ballamy Woodhouse was told its fees might not be covered by the after-the-event insurance designed to meet its fees, it is alleged.
Now Ballamy Woodhouse is suing solicitor Alex Bevan, who ran Bevans Solicitors and its successors Bevans Bray Walker, for payment of fees of £251,365.19 plus interest of £24.736.78.
The firm had been called in to prepare an expert report in a dispute between Gary Fearns, trading as Autopaint International and Anglo-Dutch Paint & Chemical Co, De Beer Lakfabrieken and others for infringement of trademark and copyright in 2006.
Alex Bevan asked the accountancy firm to carry out preliminary work in preparing an expert's report, but said funding was not yet in place. However, if Ballamy Woodhouse waited for formal instructions, the report would be too late to meet the court timetable, according to a High Court claim.
In December 2006, the firm was told that Bevans was trying to arrange after-the-event insurance to cover the costs and later Ballamy Woodhouse was told that effective insurance cover had been arranged, it is alleged.
Ballamy Woodhouse finalised a joint experts' report with De Beer's accountancy expert KPMG in January 2007 and Bevans confirmed its fees would only be paid when the case was over, the claim says.
In May 2007, the High Court ordered De Beer to pay Autopaint £438,569 for trademark infringement, passing off and breach of contract, but De Beer's counterclaim was successful and Autopaint was ordered to pay De Beer €594,696.
After a series of letters demanding payment of its invoices, Ballamy Woodhouse was told in October 2010 by Alex Bevan that recovering its fees from the insurer might not be possible, as the outcome of the claim did not necessarily trigger liability under the policy, the claim states.
Ballamy Woodhouse accuses Bevan and Bevans Bray Walker of breach of instructions in failing to pay its fees, or claims damages for misrepresentation and breach of collateral warranty.
The claim was issued by Mark Spragg of Keystone Law.

Throw a Nickel on the Grass puts WWII flying ace into meatgrinder of Vietnam
EXETER, N.H. (PRWEB) December 03, 2014
In Throw a Nickel on the Grass: …and youll be saved (published by Trafford Publishing), the exciting new novel by Norman Phillips, an independent, adventurous young man becomes a decorated fighter pilot in World War II before he reluctantly volunteers for the Vietnam War and changes his life forever.
Rick North has never spent much time on reflection. For 25 years, he has immersed his body and soul in the U.S. Air Force as a forward-looking, self-assured officer. Now, as he lies in a hospital bed in Southeast Asia, the victim of a futile war, he begins to contemplate his past as he is carried further and further away from the only life he has known.
An excerpt from Throw a Nickel on the Grass:
Rick looked up expecting the parachute to be torn because of the high speed of his ejection. Luckily, it stayed intact. A second or two later, he heard a rumbling explosion when the Thud smashed into the ground. Echoes of the sound rippled across the quiet green hills and then faded. It became very quiet.
Based on Phillips own wartime experiences and full of the realism and detail that readers demand, Throw a Nickel on the Grass is sure to excite fans of military or historical fiction.

9/9/2015 - "Sorry I haven't written before now. A while ago, I ordered my 2015 Christmas ornaments from you. Some were for my husband and me and the others were for gifts for the kids, grandchildren and friends. As always, you never disappoint! I LOVED the ornaments. They arrived on time (as stated), were safely packed and were outstanding! I so look forward to picking out the ornaments every year. Thank you, again, for the excellent ornaments. I really, really appreciate your superb service! A very happy customer, Susan W."
12/13/2015 - "Everything was as I had expected... Lisa H."
1/14/2016 - "Great products. Everyone was impressed with them!! Ellyn S."
8/11/2015 - "I appreciate the vast variety of ornaments for personalization. I can always find one that is special for each grandchild. This has been a custom since at least 2009. What I miss is the opportunity to add, "Merry Christmas, Grandpa and Grandma G." I remember doing that in the beginning years. Joan G."
11/13/2015 - "Every year I buy my ornaments from OrnamentShop and every year I am happy. I wouldnt even think of shopping anywhere else. Quality, price, shipping, all tip top Thank you for not changing and continuing the high quality of your product.Joann M."
6/30/2015 - "I think your ornaments are great! Sue W."
11/14/2015 - "NO PROBLEMS - GREAT PACKING. Judith R."
12/23/2015 - "You make our Christmas bright every year - thanks for all the fabulous designs each year! Merry Christmas! Cheers, Jane Y"
11/29/2015 - "This was the first time I ordered from Ornament Shop. For over 30 years I have given my sons and now my grandchildren a special ornament that reflects something special from the year. Easy to do when they're kids, but it has become more difficult as adults. So when I googled Thailand and Portugal ornaments, this shop came up. The ornaments are absolutely beautiful, the personalization is way neater than my own attempts in previous years, and though fragile glass ornaments, they were packed extremely well and everything arrived quickly with no breakage. Because it was the first time ordering, I was afraid to have them send directly to the recipient. In the future, I will do that and save the frustration and long lines at the post office. I also ordered cruise ship ornaments which were much larger and more beautiful than pictured on line. Oh, and the 40th wedding anniversary ornament was adored by my best friend. This is truly one of the only times that what I ordered online exceeded my expectations. They are a little pricey but really very comparable to Hallmark. And no, I didn't get paid to write this review. Sue K."
12/11/2015 - "These wonderful ornaments are a yearly keepsake tradition for my children! The site is easy to use and there are so many to choose from. Janet W."

Jay Christensen covered college football, among other sports, for the Los Angeles Times and produces the popular college football blog TheWizofOdds.com.
It's truly one of the most remarkable inventions of the past 20 years. It costs nothing to operate, runs 24-7 without a hitch and never requires maintenance.
It's the one, the only Southeastern Conference hype machine.
Many a college football fan — and bettor — has been swallowed in the annual hype surrounding the league. But this year is different. With a fat, new TV contract and powerful network behind it, the machine has been cranking it out like never before.
The willing lemmings lined up early, starting in August with the release of the coaches preseason poll. An unheard of five SEC teams were ranked in the top 13.
Mississippi actually rose to No. 5 after victories over Memphis and something called Southeastern Louisiana, which is said to be an accredited university. The Rebel quarterback, Jevan Snead, was in the top five of every Heisman list. Never doubt the machine's ability to sway opinion.
Then reality struck. Mississippi, with the cushiest of nonconference schedules, had to play games against conference opponents. It has lost two of three in league and Snead is tied for 92nd in NCAA passing with nine interceptions to go with his nine touchdown passes. Nice.
No wonder Mississippi is one of only seven Division I-A teams with two I-AA opponents on its schedule. That darn, old SEC is so tough, you can't risk playing actual teams in nonconference play for fear of losing even more games!
Next came Louisiana State, which replaced Mississippi in the poll pecking order. The Tigers soared into the No. 4 spot on the flimsiest of credentials, winning two games they should have lost, including one where an SEC officiating crew was credited with an assist.
The hype had you believing LSU had Florida right where it wanted last Saturday — a dreaded night game in Baton Rouge (the Tigers never lose one of these!), with Tim Tebow still woozy from a concussion.
Overlooked was LSU's offense, mediocre at best and ranked a dismal 99th as the captains gathered at midfield for the coin flip. Florida knew it, and Gator defenders did what they were supposed to do, suffocating the Tigers in a 13-3 victory.
SEC speed? You always hear about it, but where was it last Saturday, when the Vanderbilt Commodores marched into West Point as 10-point favorites against Army and lost, 16-13 in overtime?
In Starkville, Mississippi State played host to Houston. The Bulldogs were catching the Cougars at the right time because Houston was coming off a deflating loss to Texas El Paso, dashing any hope the Cougars had of playing in a Bowl Championship Series game.
That SEC theory was quickly shot to hell. Case Keenum made the Bulldogs look like Chihuahuas, passing for 434 yards and two touchdowns in Houston's 31-24 victory.
Gene Chizik did the unthinkable in two seasons at Iowa State. He took over a Cyclone program and actually made it worse, an accomplishment previously thought impossible. Chizik won five games in two seasons in Ames, but none of that mattered when Auburn, scrambling to find a coach, inexplicably hired Chizik.
After Chizik won his first five with the Tigers, twisted SEC logic actually turned this into 20 consecutive victories. How, you ask?
Chizik was Tiger defensive coordinator in 2003, when the team won its final two games, and 2004, when it went 13-0. Add it up and Chizik had won 20 in a row as a member of the Auburn staff!
This nonsense came to a screeching halt once the Tigers got away from a steady diet of Louisiana Techs and Ball States. Auburn traveled last Saturday to Arkansas and was trounced, 44-23, trailing at one point, 34-3.
What about Georgia, which was No. 13 in the preseason poll? The Bulldogs have given up at least 37 points in seven of their last 12 games. Seriously, how were they deserving of such a ranking? Chalk it up to the hype machine.
The reality is that the SEC in 2009 consists of Alabama, Florida and a bunch of nobodies. In nonconference games against Division I-A opponents, SEC teams are a pedestrian 14-11 against the spread. In nonconference play against teams from Bowl Championship Series conferences, the record is 4-7. That's a .363 percentage, the worst of the six BCS conferences.
In alphabetical order, a look at how the other BCS leagues and Notre Dame compare against the spread in nonconference games against Division I-A and BCS opponents:
Atlantic Coast — 13-13 against I-A; 6-10 against BCS opponents.
Big East — 14-8, 9-3
Big Ten — 14-16, 8-5
Big 12 — 21-15, 6-6
Pacific 10 — 13-10, 7-5
Notre Dame — 1-4, 1-4
The clamoring started this week for Alabama and Florida to play not only in the SEC championship game, but the BCS title game as well. Given the damning evidence I've just presented, how could anyone in his or her right mind even begin to suggest such a scenario?
Perhaps they've been following the SEC hype machine.

Subscribe today!
1* Oakland (4:05 ET): Not to make a cliched reference, but Houston, you definitely have a problem. What has gone wrong with the Astros? They are now just 7-17 with an AL-worst -33 run differential. Yesterday's shutout loss (2-0) certainly offers no optimism and I see the club getting swept here in Oakland. As I'll explain, it also doesn't help that they'll be facing a lefty this afternoon.
The southpaw in question in Rich Hill. Oakland's starter comes in with a 2.42 ERA through five starts and just tossed seven scoreless innings of four-hit ball his last time out (with 8 K's and zero walks). Even better though is the fact that Houston is 0-4 this season vs. LH starters. The 'Stros were of course shut out Saturday and so far they've totaled only 11 hits in the series.
Houston's bullpen regression from last year, which was to be expected, is the most easily identifiable problem. The team is 3-11 on the road and a big reason for that is the relievers posting a woeful 7.32 ERA and 1.550 WHIP. Sunday's starter Doug Fister offers little in the way of promise himself as he's 0-3 his L3 starts w/ a 5.60 ERA and 1.528 WHIP. Not only has Fister allowed at least one home run in every start this year, but he walked a career-high seven batters his last turn in the rotation. Right now, Houston simply is not a team worth backing. 1* Oakland

Essex sacks Tsotsobe after Twitter outburst
London: South African speedster Lonwabo Tsotsobe was sacked by the Essex county team after the bowler described his stint at the club as "the worst two months" of his life on social networking site Twitter.
The 27-year-old tweeted, "I`ve never felt like this ever. This is the worst two months of my life. And you know when you start regretting yourself it ain`t good. It`s just impossible to work in this environment."
The left-hander, who joined Essex last month, had a poor run of form bagging just five wickets at an average of 77.60 in three four-day County Championship matches.
He, however, fared little better in the limited-overs competition, taking eight wickets in five appearances but that did not suffice the demands of his team which claimed that bowler`s post was "downright rude".
Essex coach Paul Grayson expressed disappointment at Tsotsobe`s remarks saying that his "attitude and work-rate are not to the standard of an international cricketer".
"I`ve read a few of his comments and I am very surprised. We`ve given him a great opportunity to come and play county cricket and what he has said about us is downright rude," he was quoted as saying.
Meanwhile, a senior South African figure who does not wish to be named, said because Tsotsobe was perceived to be the successor to Makhaya Ntini, he was beginning to consider himself "untouchable".
"There`s no doubt that he has all the skills to succeed, but I believe he has an attitude problem," he told `The Star`.

At a time of record agricultural profits, concerns are mounting that American farmers could be edging toward a financial crisis not seen since the 1980s farm-economy collapse.
Soaring land values, increasing debt and a reliance on government subsidies for ethanol production have prompted economists to warn that what some describe as a golden age of agriculture could come to a sudden end. At risk are the livelihoods of thousands of farmers, the health of hundreds of banks and the vitality of an agricultural industry that has been one of the nation's few economic bright spots in recent months.
"We're in a very risky time, and yet we don't seem concerned about that risk nearly as much as we should be," said Barry L. Flinchbaugh, an agricultural economist.
The potential problem, economists said, is that strong demand for corn and other grains has caused prices to reach historic highs. That has led to record farmland values and steadily increasing debt as farmers borrow money to buy more land, finance the higher costs of fertilizer and seed and upgrade their equipment.
As long as the demand remains, good times for farmers should continue. But if demand falls, they could find themselves in a situation reminiscent of the early 1980s when the farm economy largely crumbled.
Among factors that could affect demand would be a change in the federal government's policy on ethanol subsidies, now estimated at about $6 billion a year, revisions in the farm bill that would lower support payments or an increase in the dollar's value, which would hurt exports.
Farm economists question whether the federal backing for ethanol will continue in the face of complaints that soaring corn prices are increasing food costs. Corn is used in most animal feed and is a key ingredient in myriad other products.
"U.S. energy policy has been friendly to ethanol in the last couple of decades. The question is, will it continue to be. It's running up food prices and that's causing pressure on Congress to limit mandates for ethanol usage," said Neil Harl, an emeritus professor of economics at Iowa State University.
The farm bill appears mired in Congress as lawmakers bicker with the Bush administration, which has threatened a veto if any increases in spending are not offset by reductions elsewhere. Congress' recent short-term extension to the 2002 farm bill keeps programs funded through April 25.
Flinchbaugh and others said the agricultural economy bears a striking resemblance to that seen in the mid-1970s, when a seemingly insatiable demand for U.S. crops drove up land values and farmers took advantage of their soaring equity to increase debt. When federal policy changed and demand suddenly dropped, land values and farm income plunged, forcing thousands of farmers to sell out and leading to the failure of nearly 300 agricultural banks.
Grain farmer Harlan Meier, 76, lived through the last two major farm economy downturns - the Depression in the 1930s and the 1980s farm crisis.
Even at a time of such strong prices, Meier noted that farmers are paying much higher prices for seed and nitrogen fertilizer, a product needed in abundance for fields repeatedly planted in corn. The increased costs and memories of the 1980s have made him hesitant to take on debt.
"I guess you could say there's an awful lot of concern in the rural communities and with some of the city people," Meier said. "I would think there would be a lot of cautiousness among farmers because most of the people can remember the '80s and I would think there's probably a lot of cautious people now on spending a lot of money."
Economists worry that farmers could be tempted to add debt due to the belief that high commodity prices would continue.
Those prices have been driven up by a strong demand for corn and soybeans from countries such as China and India, coupled with the needs of more than 50 corn-reliant ethanol plants built in the last few years.
The cash price for corn on the Chicago Board of Trade has soared from $1.86 a bushel in the 2004-2005 marketing year to the current price of about $6 per bushel. Soybeans were at $5.88 a bushel in 2004-2005 and now are at around $13.50.
As prices have climbed, so have farmland values. In Iowa, the nation's biggest corn producer, the average price per acre of farmland has increased 67 percent in the past five years.
"Land prices are increasing dramatically, and prices of grains are high just like the '70s," said Danny Klinefelter, an extension economist. "It concerns me a lot."
Harl, who has written extensively on the 1980s farm crisis, said the key is how much debt farmers take on, and it appears that amount is increasing significantly.
"The longer these higher commodity prices go, the more it will draw people in to borrow heavily to buy the land and that's when things get dicey," Harl said.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, farm business debt is expected to reach $228 billion by the end of this year, an $8 billion increase from last year and a new record for the fourth consecutive year.
The government said much of the debt is driven by the need for new machinery, equipment and grain storage, as farmers strive to keep up with the increasing demand for grain.
The USDA says total farm debt is up 30 percent from 2003-2008.

What do you think of Labour's reshuffle?
Related Links
Relevant offers
Annette King, Phil Twyford and David Clark have been promoted to Labour's frontbench in a party reshuffle unveiled today.
Shane Jones will remain on the front bench pending the Auditor-General's report into the Bill Liu case.
Among the big losers were Trevor Mallard who was bumped off the front bench.
Labour leader David Shearer unveiled his new line-up this morning.
He said it was a mix of "new talent and experienced hands".
King returns to the front bench after some time in the middle benches following her demotion as deputy leader.
She will take up the health portfolio.
Dunedin North MP David Clark has flown up the ranks and will take on the economic development portfolio.
Chris Hipkins will take on education, Andrew Little justice and Phil Twyford housing.
Leadership contender David Cunliffe and Christchurch East MP Lianne Dalziel have been bumped from the top 20-ranked Labour MPs.
Shearer said Clark was a "rising star" with the economic grunt needed for his new portfolio.
He will work alongside David Parker who retains the finance portfolio.
King was passionate and formidable, Shearer said.
Twyford was "one of our top performers".
Wigram MP Megan Woods will pick up tertiary education and Sue Moroney has returned to the top 20.
Those outside the top 20 MPs are not ranked.
Iain Lees-Galloway and Kris Faafoi have also picked up new portfolios although they remain on the backbenches.
Shearer said Shane Jones would remain on the front bench until the Auditor-General's report was released.
"He is a talented politicians with an important contribution to make," he said.
Without Parekura Horomia or Lianne Dalziel on the frontbench neither Maori affairs nor the Christchurch rebuild portfolios are represented by those at the top of the party.
Shearer said Horomia could do his job from his position outside the top 20 and the whole frontbench would work on Christchurch issues.
Deputy leader Grant Robertson remains in the number two spot and picks up responsibility for jobs.

Could there be a Top deal for Rihanna? Singer is spotted dining with Topshop boss Sir Philip Green in Barbados
Rihanna may be spending her Christmas holidays relaxing on the beach in her home town of Barbados, but it looks like she might be doing some business too.
The What's My Name singer dined with Topshop owner Sir Philip Green and music mogul Simon Cowell at Sandy Lane beach on Boxing Day and happily dished about the high level get-together on her Twitter page.
'Just had dinner w/ Simon Cowell Philip Green, and Lucian G., and Ashley (thanks) @ Sandy Lane! Great night!'
Top talk? Rihanna dines and chats with Topshop boss Philip Green during her holiday in Barbados
The sultry songstress was dressed casually in a black tank top and a leopard print scarf tied in a bow around her head. Green also looked relaxed in a simple white T-shirt.
Perhaps style icon Rihanna was chatting to Green about working on a fashion line for the his British high street store.
Jet skiing jet setter: Simon Cowell regularly spends his Christmas holiday in Barbados but he took time out to dine with his mate Philip Green and Rihanna
Green previously signed model Kate Moss to help her launch a series of fashion lines for the shop.
She may well have also discussed her recent controversial X Factor performance with Cowell.
During the show Rihanna stripped down while she performed What's My Name, and Christina Aguilera also donned a risque outfit while performing the song Express from her recent film, Burlesque.
British TV regulators Ofcom are currently holding an investigation into the show which aired on December 11.
Earlier, Rihanna showed off her signature style on the beach, hitting the surf in a very eye-catching and unique panther-design swimsuit.
And even though the suit was a one-piece, it still managed to emphasise the 22-year-old's enviable curves.
The swimsuit is made by designer label We Are Famous and costs £195.00.
Rihanna is spending Christmas with her family in Barbados before jetting back to the U.S in time for New Year's Eve.
Boxing Day beauty: Rihanna wears a black panther swimsuit in Barbados
After doing her Christmas shopping in Los Angeles earlier this week, the Umbrella star jetted to Barbados's Grantley Adams Airport via Miami on Wednesday.
At Miami, she bumped into her mother Monica and her aunt so they boarded the flight back to Barbados together.
Writing on her Twitter, she enthused: 'I'm in Miami Airport...Guess who just popped up and surprised me @ my Gate???
Wrapping up: Rihanna spent the holiday season in Barbados with her family
'My mooooommmyyyyy....and my AUNTY. We all going home together.. Barbados I love you.'
After spending Christmas in the Caribbean, Rihanna will fly to Las Vegas for New Year's Eve, where she will see in 2011 performing at the Pure nightclub at Caesars Palace.
And she is clearly excited about it, posting about it on her Twitter on Wednesday.
Playful: Rihanna will be spending New Years Eve at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas
She says: 'Damn Its not even Christmas yet and I'm thinking abt NYE!Who's comin out to party with me @ PURE? FYI I'm NOT performing but I'm DEF PARTYIN.'
Meanwhile, there is growing speculation Rihanna has split from baseball star boyfriend Matt Kemp.
The couple were last photographed together in New York in November, with the singer spending most of the past few weeks travelling between North America and Europe promoting her new album Loud.
Friends of the singer said they were not expected to spend the holiday season together.
The couple started dating in late 2009.
