Mepps fishing lures are local and top of the line
Submitted: 07/28/2016
Play Video
- When you can't catch fish, it's easy to blame the lure. If you need something different, people in Antigo make a lure that you might want to try. The Mepps assembly plant is located right off Highway 45.
Mepps fishing lures were originally made in Paris, France, starting in 1938. Back in the 1970's, a local Antigo sporting goods store owner, Todd Sheldon, decided to buy that facility and moved it to Nice, France. His son, Mike is now the president of the company.
"The guys that own the Mepps company in France were getting old enough to where they wanted to retire so we bought the Mepps company in France in 1972," said Sheldon.
One detail that makes the lure number one in the world is that they use actual animal tail fur.
"The tails are washed, dyed and tied back there," said plant worker Kim Wiegert. "And they're dehydrated. They will store a long time, so they can last 3 to 5 years."
There are many benefits to using real hair as opposed to artificial hair.
"The hair is hollow and goes through a lot of wear and tear," said Wiegert. "Other hairs would disintegrate, and fall apart. With these, it'll last longer, the fish can bite on them and it'll take a long time before they'll actually chew them apart."
Along with the hairs, there is a secret way to put the lures together that makes Mepps the best.
"We have a certain wind that we have and we can tell when we put them together, how it should be. All of our spinners are field tested before they actually go out," said Wiegert.
Even though the company distributes their product around the world, the Sheldon's still enjoy being based in Antigo.
"It's home. I grew up here and my parents grew up here and of course my kids did. And it's such a different pace of life here than the rest of the world," said Sheldon.
Everyone putting the little pieces together are women. Kim is just one who works in the plant that has been there for nearly 40 years. She also gives tours of the facility to the public.
"I like to react with the people when they come in, especially ones that have fishing stories to tell you. It's interesting here and you get to meet other people," said Wiegert.

Local prosecutor runs for Langlade County District Attorney
Submitted: 07/28/2016
Play Video
- Since March, Langlade County hasn't had a district attorney.
Its former district attorney Ralph Uttke went to work in Marathon County. The governor could have appointed someone for the job, but chose not to. Since then, a special prosecutor has been filling in.
But all district attorney positions statewide are up for election on November 8th.
Now Portage County assistant district attorney, Elizabeth Constable, will run for the position.
"It was always my plan to be a prosecutor," Constable said "And that's what I've done for my entire career."
Constable has been an assistant district attorney in Portage County for the past two years and also an assistant DA in Wood County for five years before that.
"I'm at the point in my career that I feel qualified to step into a leadership position," Constable said.
So when former Langlade County District Attorney Ralph Uttke left the office this spring, Constable saw her opportunity. She has a home ouside Elcho, so she decided to run��"and she's running uncontested.
"It all just worked out perfectly," Constable said.
Newswatch 12 caught Constable on vacation. But if she wasn't, she probably would have been in the courtroom. In her seven years, she's prosecuted 25 jury trials. But she's passionate about the justice system because she's seen it work, and wants it to work.
"I've had cases where I've really seen a turnaround in the defendent...the objectives of the sentencing actually worked," Constable said.
Part of that passion comes not only from her law degree from University of Wisconsin Law School. Before that, Constable got her masters in religion and philosophy from Harvard University��"on a full scholarship.
"Kind of studying people, who we are, what we do , how we think, what motivates us," Constable said.
It's that kind of study that lends itself well to her work as a prosecutor, she said.
"I really do also want to see that the defendants for the most part I just want to see them get on the right path," Constable said.

I think they should get rid of these very awfully skinny models. Well they already got rid of all the not very skinny designers. And judging by the last judgement in the wicked episode - they are sorting by nose not by dress. Some of their top dresses where really boring and some good ones where not even in the Top. Very weird season.

More Canadians than ever surviving heart attacks and stroke, but not enough are maintaining critical changes to prevent subsequent events
TORONTO, Feb. 2, 2014 /CNW/ - The following B-Roll is available by Video
On-Demand web download:
STORY SUMMARY: This year's report looks at findings from a unique poll of 2,000 heart attack and stroke survivors (and their loved ones) and answers important questions: Are survivors able to make and maintain potentially life-saving behaviour changes? Are they receiving the support they need to recover and thrive to the fullest? This year's Report also investigates the current state of rehabilitation in Canada and challenges around access and personal stories from survivors. One such survivor is Olympic figure skater Isabelle Brasseur, who suffered cardiac arrest while giving birth to her daughter. She knows first-hand the importance of maintaining heart healthy behaviours and speaks to her experiences and encourages all Canadians to take their health to heart.

The invention relates to an electromedical apparatus for interference current treatment comprising at least two current circuits, wherein the current circuits are activated either by a generator for the purpose of digital generation of signal frequencies and are interconnected via phase control circuits, or said current circuits are activated by separate generators for the purpose of generating signal frequencies of small deviation (of low frequency differences).
In the case of current stimulation apparatus according to the interference principle, an intensity control is to be possible simultaneously and uniformly in the individual current circuits; this means that no noticeable synchronization faults can be permitted to occur between the channels of the current stimulation apparatus.
Up to the present time, the current intensity of the current circuits was controlled by multicircuit interference apparatus comprising multiple potentiometers. Basically, simultaneously several potentiometers are activated with a rotary knob by the operator. The synchronization error of conventional multiple potentiometers, however, lies approximately on the order of magnitude of �3 db. As a consequence of this, undesired shifts in the intensity progression of the individual channels can effectively already result. The same accordingly applies when the intensity progression of the current circuits is controlled by the steepness (or slope) of the input/output transfer characteristics of field effect transistors. Since the steepness of the transfer characteristic and the so-called "pinch-off-voltages" of such components can vary greatly, it is necessary, in this instance, to reckon with a considerable outlay of adjustment elements and adjustment time.
Accordingly, the object underlying the invention resides in producing an electromedical apparatus for inteference current treatment in which, with the least possible technical outlay, the intensity control of the individual current circuits is possible in an entirely uniform fashion.
In accordance with the invention, the object is achieved in the case of an apparatus of the type initially cited in that, in every output current circuit, a transistor is connected whose collector voltage exhibits, during switching operation at the signal frequency rate, either zero value or operating voltage value, all switching transistors being activated at the collector side via a common control element from a single voltage source, so that the magnitude of the output signals of the switching transistors of all output current circuits synchronously varies in dependence upon the position of the common control element.
Since the signal frequencies are digitally generated; i.e., they are present in the form of square wave voltages, the transistors can be employed as switches which are switched to the conductive stage by the square wave voltage of the generators for the various current circuits. The output square wave voltage, which is available at the transistors on the collector side, is here a function of the position of the common control element, which is identical for all current circuits. Preferably the common control element is a potentiometer which is connected at its output to an operational amplifier, the amplifier being operated with a feedback coupling, so that, through the low-resistance output, no cross talk can take place in the parallel-connected channels of the individual transistors. From the digital signal values; i.e., the output square wave voltages, sinusoidal voltages can be correspondingly generated through low-pass filters which are connected at the output side with the collector paths. These sinusoidal voltages are post-amplified by identical amplifiers, so that the voltages for producing the desired interference currents in the patient are available at the output electrodes.
Further details and advantages of the invention are apparent from the following figure description of an exemplary embodiment on the basis of the accompanying drawing sheet in conjunction with additional subclaims; and other objects, features and advantages will be apparent from this detailed disclosure and from the appended claims.
FIG. 1 illustrates in a circuit diagram an interference current apparatus with simultaneous, identical intensity control of the current circuits;
FIG. 2 illustrates a modification of FIG. 1 wherein separate digital signal generators are provided; and
FIG. 3 illustrates a modification of FIG. 1 wherein a voltage divider and impedance converter means are interposed between the common control circuit and the respective switching transistors.
In FIG. 1, reference character A denotes the channel of a first current circuit; B, the channel of a second current circuit; and C, the channel of a third current circuit, the outputs of which can be applied via electrodes to corresponding locations of the patient's body for the purpose of developing interference currents in the interior of the patient. Reference numeral 1 characterizes a signal generator for the purpose of generating signal frequencies approximately in the medium frequency range; for example, between 1000 and 100,000 Hz. The signal generator 1 directly activates the current circuit A. Connected in parallel with the generator 1 are phase control circuits 2 and 3 (so-called phase-locked-loops), with which rhythmic phase shifts in the current circuits B and C can be adjusted. Alternatively thereto, separate generators such as 1A, 1B, FIG. 2, for every current circuit can be employed which generate the frequencies of low frequency differences suitable for interference treatment. In the three current circuits, one transistor 4, 5 and 6 each is arranged which operate in the switching mode. Specifically, npn-transistors in common emitter connection are illustrated, whereby the base of each of the respective transistors 4 through 6 is connected with a respective one of resistances 7 through 9. The emitter path of each of the transistors 4 through 6 is connected to ground potential. The transistors 4 through 6, on the collector-side, have their outputs connected with respective low-pass filters 10 through 12, and respective identical amplifiers 13 through 15, by which current outputs 16 through 18 of the current circuits A through C are activated.
The collector outputs of the respective transistors 4, 5 and 6 are in each instance connected via a respective resistance 19 through 21 to a common control line. This control line is connected via a potentiometer 22 as common intensity control element to a voltage source 23. An operational amplifier 24 with a feedback coupling to its inverting input, as impedance converter, is connected to the potentiometer 22 at its direct input, so that the output to the common collector-side control line of the transistors 4 through 6 is of a low-resistance in comparison to the resistance values of resistances 19, 20 and 21. A mutual influencing of the channels of the individual current circuits is thereby prevented.
The circuit thus described has the following function: from the generator 1, square wave signals with cyclically varying phase position are connected directly or via the phase-locked-loops 2 and 3, to the signal lines for the individual channels A through C. The transistors 4 through 6 are in each instance driven to saturation by the input signals, so that they operate, in dependence upon the digitally present signals, in the switching mode between full conducting and cut off with the specified frequency. The collector voltages of the transistors 4 through 6 are then either zero or operating voltage. The operating voltage of the transistors 4 through 6 is synchronously adjusted for all transistors to the desired value by means of the single potentiometer 22. Through the operational amplifier 24 with the feedback connection to its inverting input, cross-talk between the individual channels via the transistors 4 through 6 is prevented, so that actually in each instance there is present, at the collector side, the same square wave voltage which is a function of the setting of the common potentiometer 22. These square wave voltages are converted via the low pass filters 10 through 12 to sinusoidal voltages and the sinusoidal voltages are amplified in the amplifiers 13 through 15. The outputs 16 through 18 of the channels A, B, C, can be applied via electrodes directly to the patient's body in which the desired interference currents develop.
In another exemplary embodiment, the transistors of the individual current circuits are additionally connected, on the collector side, with a voltage divider such as 25, FIG. 3. The intensity of individual current circuits can thereby be varied, while the synchronous relative change (or variation), in dependence upon the setting of the control unt 22-24, remains present. Expediently, an impedance converter (or buffer) such as 26; here is connected with each output of the voltage divider 25, the respective taps of the voltage divider supplying the respective operating voltages to the respective collectors of the transistors via the respective impedance buffers. It is also possible, through connection of an inverting amplifier between one or more of the taps of the voltage divider and the respective collector or collectors, to create such a control in which the intensities in the individual current circuits vary in a definedly opposed fashion.
It will be apparent that many modifications and variations may be effected without departing from the scope of the novel concepts and teachings of the present invention. We claim as our invention:

Looking a flash for a D90
Oct 19, 2012
Hi everybody
After been using a D90 for a couple of years, I think is time to get a flash and continue my learning on the photography world. I've been looking on the SB-700 but for now is out of my budget, I,m trying to stay below the $230USD.
Consider my limited budget, which 3rd party flash would you guys recommend.
Nikon D90

Barcelona have confirmed that midfielder Andres Iniesta has suffered a badly bruised knee but that he has no further damage.
Iniesta was forced off at half-time in Saturday's goalless La Liga stalemate at Atletico Madrid, replaced by star striker Lionel Messi.
On Sunday, the Catalan giants said the midfielder was removed as a precaution, and that the injury was not serious.
"Andres Iniesta, who was taken off at half-time on Saturday, has a badly bruised left knee, but no other complications," a brief statement on the club's official website read.
"Tests carried out this morning confirmed that the player's recovery time will determine his availability for future games.
"Iniesta was taken off as a precaution at half-time against Atletico Madrid after the knock he picked up and was substituted by Leo Messi."

SCRANTON - After running a sting operation Friday in which undercover officers offered to sell items to pawn and jewelry shops without showing proper identification, city police will cite two for breaking city and state law.
Of the 18 shops tested, only Jay Cortazzo, holder of the license for the Gold Deposit, 300 Lackawanna Ave., Mall at Steamtown, and Nasser Mohammadzad, holder of the license for Cash Cash 4 Gold, 1826 N. Main Ave., will receive citations by mail.
Police said they also plan to execute compliance checks on secondhand dealers and scrap yards.

So, how's your NCAA tournament bracket looking about now?
Does it remind you of that ill-fated algebra test you took back in the ninth grade, when you slept through class most of the time and then, the night before the big exam, decided to watch the Utah Jazz game on TV instead of study?
Yeah, mine looks the same way — lots of red ink.
Saturday's stunning loss by Gonzaga, the No. 1 seed in the West Region, capped a couple of upset-filled days that were real bracket-busters for many of us — especially those of us who thought the 'Zags, who entered this year's national tournament as the top-ranked team in the nation, were the real deal and almost assuredly headed for the Final Four this year.
Instead, they were done in by a bunch of unheralded guys from Wichita State whose mascot, prophetically, is the Shockers.
Hey, that's why they call it March Madness.
The ninth-seeded Shockers certainly lived up to that nickname by knocking off favored Gonzaga 76-70 on Saturday night at EnergySolutions Arena. Shoot, not even the presence of legendary Jazz guard John Stockton, one of the greatest clutch performers of all time, could save the Bulldogs from an early tourney exit.
Stockton was there to watch his son, David, who's a Gonzaga guard like his daddy once was. Then again, let's face it, there's nobody who's a guard quite like his daddy once was.
And the 'Zags sure could've used ol' No. 12's stoic, always cool-under-pressure demeanor on Saturday night.
Ah, yes, March Madness. I mean, really, need we say more? And heck, we're not even through the first weekend yet.
But after the first few days of this year's tournament, we've already witnessed some seldom-seen stunners.
Like second-seeded Georgetown getting beat by somebody called Florida Gulf Coast, a lowly No. 15 seed who looked like anything but a stars-in-their-eyes squad just happy to be going to the Big Dance for the first time in school history. Instead, FGC (the snappy acronym for Florida Gulf Coast for those in the know, who never needed such an acronym before Friday's outcome), handled Georgetown 78-68.
What in the Hoya was going on there, anyhow?
FGC will face SDSU (that's San Diego State University for the acronymically challenged) in today's round of 32.
And in Thursday's opening round (even though the NCAA likes to call it the second round due to those "First Four" play-in games, unheralded Harvard, seeded 14th, sent third-seeded New Mexico reeling in another thriller.
California, a No. 12 seed, benefitted from having a near-homecourt advantage to eliminate fifth-seeded UNLV. Cal got to play its first two tourney games in San Jose, reportedly 46 miles from the Cal campus.
Oregon, also a No. 12 seed from the Pac-12, did itself proud by winning not one but two games — and both of them by double digts. The Ducks first dumped fifth-seeded Oklahoma State, then followed that up by beating Saint Louis, the No. 4 seed, in the second round.
That sends Oregon to next Friday's Sweet 16 as well, where the Ducks will go up against Louisville, a No. 1 seed that's actually playing like one, winning its first two games by a combined 57 points (a 31-point rout followed by a 26-point thumping).
For those of us who always cheer for the underdog, those rousing victories by Wichita State, Florida Gulf Coast, Oregon and Harvard might've messed up our brackets — but man, they sure were fun to watch. And, no doubt, there are more to come.

Agathoxylon, the Wood Morphogenus Previously Known as Araucarioxylon
Complicating this problem is that the majority of this wood has been almost completely agatized, obliterating the cellular structures used to make taxonomic assignments. Furthermore, Savidge (2007) found that there are actually several wood taxa at this horizon, in fact almost every specimen sampled turns out to be new. Thus, park staff are at a loss when asked what the name the main type of fossil wood in the park is, and most just simply still continue to use the invalid name Araucarioxylon.
Philippe, in this new paper, suggests that a better name for the morphogenus is Agathoxylon. However, I would be hesitant to refer the large amounts of currently unnamed wood to this genus as he also suggests that eventually it should be restricted to a single species. Furthermore, because of the restriction of the type of P. arizonicum, the majority of Chinle wood lacks a direct assignment to a species-group name. This is a mess that probably will never be resolved because of the poor preservation of the wood structures, thus the majority of Chinle wood will simply be referrable to Araucariaceae indeterminate (or maybe even a more inclusive clade or rank?).
Philippe, M., in press. How many species of Araucarioxylon? C. R. Palevol (2011), doi:10.1016/j.crpv.2010.10.010
Abstract - Fossil wood, similar to that of modern Araucariaceae, has been known for a long time, and is usually called Araucarioxylon. More than 400 morphospecies have been described, whereas this wood type displays few characteristic features. This taxonomical profusion is compounded by nomenclatural problems, Araucarioxylon being an illegitimate name. The status of the wood morphogenus, the infrageneric structure and the names that apply to the taxa designated for fossil woods of the Araucarioxylon-type are discussed. A database with 428 morphospecies designated for Araucarioxylon-type of wood is analyzed. The name Agathoxylon Hartig seems to be the most appropriate for the corresponding morphogenus. Albeit theoretically several hundred morphospecies could be recognized within this group, it is at least as probable that only one should be retained.

There is still enough wood in some of the Sonsela Member wood-bearing beds that are not completely agatized, from which we could potentially get some anatomical information. So I don't think all is lost.ReplyDelete
I doubt however that most identifiable remains can be referred to "Araucariaceae" - my understanding is that much of the wood does not belong in this clade, but in other gymnosperm groups.
Agreed. One of the harder things to get people to understand is that we will pretty much have to sample almost every tree to be able to assign them to various taxa.ReplyDelete
Come on, folks -- monospecific genera! As soon as you start assigning multiple fossil species to a aingle genus, you make your nomenclature a slave to your phylogeny. Here we are in 2011 -- how does anyone still not get this?ReplyDelete
As you know - quite a few folks disagree with you Mike. Whats the point of having a binomen if all your genera are monospecific?ReplyDelete
I mean, I would like to get rid of the binomen and just have species + clade names. If we're stuck with the binomen, lets just treat genera as clades. I know I'm not going to convince you Mike, but just wanted to reply.
Randy asks: "What's the point of having a binomen if all your genera are monospecific".ReplyDelete
No point whatsoever. But we're stuck with it for now, so until that changes, we put a space in the middle our mononomials. "Xenoposeidon proneneukos" is a single word, it's just spelled ... D, O, N, space, P, R, O ...
I honestly don't understand how anyone can possibly disagree with this, not when we're dealing with animals from which if we're LUCKY we have 10% of the skeleton. It simply is not realistic to think that, based on specimens like this, we can recover the phylogeny with enough confidence to tie our nomenclature to it (by means of binomials with many species forming monophyletic genera). For people who work on extant beetles, who have numerous complete specimens of each species, maybe. For sauropod workers who typically have a single very incomplete partial skeleton of each species, no.

Florida Gators earn NCAA tournament overall #1 seed, 1 of 3 SEC teams in tourney
AP - Virginia joined Florida, Wichita State and Arizona as a No. 1 seed Sunday when the selection committee announced the pairings for the NCAA tournament.
The Cavaliers, widely considered a 2 or 3 seed in many mock-ups of the bracket, instead vaulted to the top of the East region. They won the ACC regular-season and tournament titles.
March Madness begins Tuesday with a pair of "First Four" games in Dayton, Ohio.
The Gators bring a 26-game winning streak into the tournament. They are seeded first in the South and are the No. 1 seed overall.
Wichita State, the top seed in the Midwest, comes in at 34-0 - the first team to enter the tournament undefeated since UNLV in 1991.
The Final Four starts April 5 in Arlington, Texas.

Understanding how the Pen and Pencil tools differ
Understanding how the Pen and Pencil tools differ
At first blush, we might be able to say that the Pen tool was really created for mouse-based input, but the Pencil tool was added to Illustrator and focused more on pen tablet based input. Let's understand a little bit about these two different tools and understand what makes them work. Then we'll start to find better ways that we can actually use these tools as well. Now, as we kind of defined way back in the beginning of this course, the Pen tool is really used for plotting anchor points. We don't actually draw with the Pen tool. We create anchor points, we actually define where anchor points need to live in our document, and Illustrator connects those anchor points with paths.
Based on the kinds of anchor points that we create, whether they are corner anchor points or smooth anchor points, and where we position these control handles, Illustrator will connect the dots with these curved paths. So for example, if I wanted to draw a shape, I would start with the Pen tool and I w...

text: John Kerry's Excellent Character Judgment Continues to Bear FruitJohn Cook7/27/11 1:07pmFiled to: PoliticsJohn KerryWade sandersCrimeGettypicTweetgFb64EditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink The guy John Kerry chose to be vice president in 2004 turned out to be a glassy-eyed sociopath and pathological liar. That's bad! But the guy Kerry chose to introduce him at the 2004 Democratic National Convention? Turns out he's a pedophile and fraudulent war hero.Wade Sanders is a Vietnam Veteran and former swift boat captain who helped defend Kerry against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth slanders during the 2004 campaign. He was so central to Kerry's efforts to combat the Swift Boat lies that Kerry selected him to introduce him at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Well, turns out there was someone who didn't deserve his war medals, but it was Sanders. According to Navy Times, the secretary of the Navy stripped Sanders of a Silver Star he was awarded in 1992 because "facts and evidence surrounding both the incident for which the award was made and the processing of the award itself" have come into question. "Additional information was brought to light after 1992," a Navy spokesperson told the paper. "Those facts could have prevented the award of the Silver Star at that time." What could those facts be? Unclear, but it may have something to do with the fact that in 2008 Sanders pleaded guilty to federal child pornography charges and is currently serving a 37-month sentence. According to his sentencing memo [pdf], Sanders caught with 13 digital images or movies depicting child pornography, including one named "BEST! HARD 7yo child abusive sex-porn.mpg.jpg."
