The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced an interim rule Friday that sets thresholds on the interest rates charged by lenders on guaranteed farm ownership and operating loans. The changes will amend guidelines for interest rates and establish new policies that clearly set the maximum interest rate lenders may charge to borrowers.
"By providing clear thresholds on interest rates for federally-guaranteed farm loans, USDA is ensuring greater certainty to producers, making compliance easier for our lenders and ensuring greater benefits for all farmers and ranchers," said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. "It is important that American agriculture continue to play a key role in driving economic growth and creating good-paying jobs across the American middle class. By setting thresholds on interest rates, USDA will strengthen access to farm credit."

I'm just sayin' I think D Rose would beat him. When I say he can't pennetrate I don't mean he is terrible at it, he's just not as good at it as he used to be. He is good... just not as good as D Rose.
So you are just going to ignore ALL the facts.
Rose is better than Kobe @ 22?? No way.
For the Note Next time you reply take THE FACTS in consideration or else dont bother replying because just because you like rose does not make him better than kobe at 22. I'll take you too there years.
Percentage wise.
Feild Goal Percentage:
Kobe Bryant: 46.5 %
Derrick Rose : 44.5 %
So Don't bring the ball hog thing into this.. Because Kobe scored more efficently if derrick rose took to more shots he still would not average: 28.5
Rose Can Rebound Score Assist better he is the whole package
Kobe Can Score Better Than derrick rose. @ 22.
Better Rebounder.
Derrick rose can pass better.
But Kobe players better defence. (with falls into completeness. and yes kobe's d can be overated but still better than rose @ 22)
Better overall Offensice and Defence
So just stats isnt all you should take under consideration..
Kobe was the one shooting and rose had boozer
You know How much that hurt your overall arguement.
Rose had boozer.
Shaq took 20 shots per game. More than Booz.
(Rose is a better leader @ 22 and shaq was the leader of the lakers ill give you that)
Rose has better moves and quicker
What the.. How does that help your arguement.
Kobe had way better moves and that does not help my arguement.
Quicker? Kobe is stronger.
That was just pointless. If that is something you like :flashiness than thats cool but that does not make him better.
@ 22.
Rose was the better leader and MUCH more mature.
BUT kobe was the better Overall player. Better player. And more skilled.
Just cause Rose had a breakthough year that does not mean you can compare him to greats.
He has a long way to go. MABEY.
But at this point not comparable.
Please do reply and say some facts please.
I would love to say kobe is better than jordan. But I can go on about it.. but at the end I would lose that arguement emmbarrasingly.
Kobe>Rose @ 22.
im gonna say this flat out 23airjordan? jordan was a ball hog. most scorers r. and encase u havent noticed. u dnt need speed 2 penetrate. and if shaq could only dunk then y did he average over 30 points in the nba finals in the three peat? u dnt score 30 points on all dunks in an nba game he had a hook shot as well as a few moves. 2 get himself layups. thts wat a big mans supposed 2 do. and remember there were 2 other coachs who had jordan pippen and grant. and they couldnt win. jackson did. kobe is by far better than rose at his "old" age of 32. hes still in tha back end of his dang prime come on people. and this is all comeinmg from a san antonio spurs fan who roots against kobe with all tht he is ok? so go spurs go!! i hate kobe but hes still better than rose
Kobe in his prime or Derrick Rose now.
That would be Kobe.
Kobe did better with a superstar at 22 than Rose did by himself.
Your stats in almost every category will go down when you are playing with another superstar. Just look at Lebron, Wade, and Bosh.
And it is extremely rare for a team to win a championship wih only 1 all star. You say look at Drik Nowitzki and the Mavs. Umm yeah let's not forget about Jason Kidd. In terms of what he's done in his entire career individually a lot of people would say he's the best overall point guard playing today. Kidd has over 100 triple doubles! And let's not forget about Jason Terry, obviously a top 3 sixth man in the NBA (Odom, Terry, Crawford). So what I'm saying is unless Chicago gets another superstar or at least star, they will not win a championship. I apologize for getting way off subject, but it is in a way relevant.
23AirJordan, you say Rose is a better rebounder, scorer, and passer @ age 22? How many triple doubles does Rose have in his first 3 seasons?
If my sources are correct had 2, but he didn't play much in his first few seasons. Rose emerged into a superstar much earlier than Kobe. And let us not forget what happened on January 22, 2006. The 81 point game. And who holds the record for most 3s in a game? Kobe with 12.
So 23AirJordan, it is obvious that you are veryy biased and young. I think I remember you saying you're 7th grade?? And I'm young too, but I don't like the Lakers and I like the Bulls a lot so if anything I'd be biased to Rose. But 23AirJordan you are young and you can't fall in love with the first superstar you see. Don't be like the duck that thinks the first thing it sees is its mom.
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
- Kevin Durant
i think i would want D-Rose because he quicker than kobe and he get drive to the basket and finish kobe can only shoot and not that quick but i respect Kobe he a great player and he has been in the nba longer so kobe can beat d rose 1on 1 because d-rose cant shoot the ball that and kobe can drive to the hole too. so i change my mind kobe can beat D-Rose.

Spring arrived very late on the Canadian prairies, which significantly delayed the arrival of all waterfowl. The slow melt, coupled with the dry soil conditions from last year, hastened any major flooding events but the good snowpack resulted in favorable wetland conditions for arriving birds.
Once arrived, the birds quickly settled and transitioned to territorial behavior, and nesting quickly followed. Although significantly delayed, mallards quickly showed signs of nesting by May 2. The observation of small bachelor groups soon followed, indicating a widespread initiation. Late-nesting birds such as blue-winged teal initiated nests around the third week in May.
Resident Canada goose nesting was also significantly delayed, and their hatch is expected to be approximately two weeks later than usual. Wetland conditions are favorable throughout the southwest breeding range, but areas lacking spring precipitation are feeling the effects of those dry soil conditions.
Most ephemeral and seasonal wetland basins are now dry. Temporary and semi-permanent basins are full, and wetlands located in larger watersheds are flooded just beyond the cattails. Additional rainfall will be required to maintain these conditions for renesting and brood-rearing birds.
Upland conditions are changing rapidly with the recent above-seasonal-warm trend. Grasslands are quickly responding to this change, which will result in good cover for later-nesting birds. If haying is not delayed, this could have an impact on nesting birds affected by the late spring.
Crop seeding has also been delayed but the favorable late-May conditions have allowed producers to get a quick jump on seeding.

GlassFish on a Handheld
By Jim Connors-Oracle on Dec 31, 2009
Until now, the idea of running something akin to a Java EE application server on a small handeld device would have been greeted with ridicule. Suddenly that notion doesn't seem so ridiculous when considering the recent technology that's been made available. In particular, the following software advances make this pipe dream more of a reality:
- Java Standard Edition for Embedded Devices: A series of Java virtual machines are available from Sun for many of the popular embedded hardware/OS platforms. They are not only Java SE compatible, but have been space optimized from a static footprint and RAM perspective to perform in embedded environments. To give you an idea of some of those optimizations, read this.
- Java Enterprise Edition 6 Platform Specification and the Web Profile: The Java EE 6 specification allows for the creation of a subset of the component technologies, called "profiles". The first of these has been dubbed the Web Profile and contains the common technologies required to create small to medium web applications. Rather than having to use a full blown Java EE application server in all its glory, you can take advantage of a significantly smaller, less complex framework.
- Embedded GlassFish: This capability, which is now part of GlassFish v3, enables you to run GlassFish inside your Java application, as opposed to the other way around. Simply put, there is no need install GlassFish or create GlassFish domains in this scenario. Instead, you include an instance of glassfish-embedded-web.jar in your classpath, make a few GlassFish Embedded API calls from your standard Java application, and voila! you've got a web application up and running.
The Hardware
Rather than opting for one of the many embedded development platforms around (because I'm cheap), I instead decided to investigate what was available from a handheld perspective and see if that environment could be adapted to suit my needs. After some searching, it looked like the Nokia N810 just might fit the bill. Courtesy of my buddy Eric Bruno, here's a picture of the N810:
To get a feel for this very capable device, check out Eric's Article. What most interested me was that (1) it has 128MB RAM, (2) a 400MHz Arm v6 processor, (3) runs a common embedded version of Linux (maemo), (4) has a version of Java SE Embedded (from Sun) which runs fine on this platform and (5) can be had for a relatively affordable price on eBay.
The Operating System
The Nokia N810 is powered by the maemo distribution, an open source platform with a thriving community of developers. Knowing full well that any attempt to get a web application up and running on this device would stretch its resources to the limit, it was necessary to reclaim as much RAM as possible before starting out. Here's a description of some of the kludgery involved:
- You'll need to download and install some additional applications which can be retrieved from the N810's Application Manager program. They include: rootsh to enable root access to the device and openssh-client and openssh-server to remotely access the device.
- A quick and dirty way to reclaim RAM is to shut down the X-server and kill all of the windowing applications that run in parallel. There are certainly more elegant ways to do this, but in addition to being cheap, I'm lazy too. What you quickly find out is that any attempt to manually kill off some of these processes results in a reboot of the tablet. Why? Because by default, the N810 includes a watchdog process that monitors the state of the system. If it detects any irregularities, it forces a restart.
- You can get around this problem by putting the device into what is called "R&D" mode. This is achieved by downloading the "flasher" utility from maemo.org and establishing a USB connection between the N810 and your host computer. Directions for this process can be found here.
- Once established, you can invoke the following flasher command: flasher3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset. If this was done successfully, you'll notice that a wrench appears on the tablet screen when it is rebooted.
- Once in R&D mode you'll have to remotely ssh into the device via the WiFi connection. The following script called set-headless.sh has been provided to kill off the windowing system. After executing this script, the N810 in effect becomes a headless device. The only way to communicate with it is through the network.
The Environment
Here's what was required to get the web application up and running:
- Ssh into the device.
- Download an evaluation copy of Java SE Embedded (ARMv6 Linux - Headless). For this example the download file was gunzip'ed and untar'ed into the N810 device's /usr directory resulting in a new /usr/ejre1.6.0_10 directory.
- Download a copy of glassfish-embedded-web-3.0.jar and place this file in the /usr/ejre1.6.0_10/lib directory.
- Modify your PATH variable to include /usr/ejre1.6.0_10/bin and set your JAVA_HOME variable to /usr/ejre1.6.0_10
- Create a temporary directory, for this example we'll create a /root/tmp directory.
- Compile the following Java source file, Embedded.java, on a JDK equipped system, which is a slightly hacked version of the original provided by Alexis Moussine-Pouchkine.
- Create a glassfish directory under /root/tmp/ and place the compiled Embedded.class file there
- Download the sample hello web application, hello.war, and place it in the /root/tmp directory.
- Reclaim as much RAM as possible by running the set-headless.sh script
- Run the web application from inside the /root/tmp directory via the the following command-line invocation:
# java -cp /usr/ejre1.6.0_10/lib/glassfish-embedded-web-3.0.jar:. glassfish/Embedded hello.war 600
As the N810 cannot match even the most modest of laptops in terms of performance, be prepared to wait around a little before the application is ready. Check this output to see what is printed out to the console during invocation.
For this run the, N810 was assigned a WiFi IP address of 192.168.1.102, thus the browser is pointed to that address with port 8888. Here's what comes up:
And Interacting with the web app produces this:
So this is obviously not ready for prime time, but it does open up a whole lot more possibilities in the near future.
Happy New Year!

Capital Journal Daybreak: U.S., Iran Near Talks Over Iraq Chaos | New Path to Power in Congress | Migrant Surge Jams Border
Sign up for the newsletter: http://on.wsj.com/CapitalJournalSignup
U.S., IRAN NEAR TALKS OVER IRAQ VIOLENCE: The Obama administration said it is preparing to open direct talks with Iran on how the longtime foes can counter the insurgents in Iraq. Both countries have publicly committed to provide military support if requested to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and help his government repel the offensive by the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, or ISIS. Dialogue between the U.S. and Iran, expected to begin this week, will be the latest in a rapid move toward rapprochement between Washington and Tehran over the past year. Jay Solomon, Carol E. Lee and Ali A. Nabhan report.
On Sunday, the radical Sunni militia that has plunged Iraq into chaos bragged that it had executed hundreds of Shiite Iraqi soldiers. The U.S. repositioned military equipment throughout the region over the weekend and beefed up security at its embassy in Baghdad. Meanwhile, lawmakers are urging the Obama administration to move quickly to contain the violence.
–Rebecca Ballhaus
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) is the odds-on favorite to win Thursday's House GOP election to choose a successor to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R., Va.) — his only long-shot opponent being second-term Rep. Raul Labrador (R., Idaho). Either way, the result will be a marked contrast to the kinds of senior, legislatively experienced people who used to be become party leaders. Read Janet Hook's full post in Washington Wire.
RACE FOR HOUSE WHIP A CLIFFHANGER: The race to succeed Rep. Kevin McCarthy as House Majority Whip–if he succeeds Rep. Eric Cantor as House Majority Leader–is turning into a nail-biter. The Thursday election will pit Mr. McCarthy's top deputy, Rep. Peter Roskam, against Rep. Steve Scalise, the head of the Republican Study Committee, a bloc of the House's most conservative lawmakers. It will be a test of whether conservatives have the clout and organization to coalesce around one standard-bearer who could influence the party's agenda from the right. Kristina Peterson and Michael R. Crittenden report.
MIGRANT SURGE JAMS BORDER: Frustration is mounting along the Texas border as federal officials struggle to check a surge of Central Americans illegally crossing into the state —an influx critics say is being aggravated because the Obama administration is allowing more migrants to be released into the U.S. pending deportation proceedings. The Department of Homeland Security hasn't disclosed statistics on how many immigrants it has released. Ana Campoy reports.
CLINTON'S BOOK TOUR TROUBLE: It was supposed to be an easy re-entry in to the world of campaign-style politics—but Week One of Hillary Clinton's book tour proved a tougher slog than she might have preferred. Mrs. Clinton looked unpolished in some of her appearances, fueling perceptions that she's out of practice after a six-year absence from national politics. But she has plenty of time to find her footing, and supporters note she tends to get better with practice. Peter Nicholas reports.
ALSO IN THE NEWS: European leaders pressed Moscow to help implement a cease fire between pro-Russia militants and Ukrainian forces … Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl has arrived in the U.S. after recuperating in a German hospital … Two economists debate: Has all the important stuff already been invented? … Medical-device maker Medtronic's deal to buy Covidien for $42.9 billion will help it escape U.S. corporate taxes … The parking garage where "Deep Throat" relayed information that fueled the Watergate scandal to be torn down … Gun-control advocate Mark Glaze says President Obama's unrelated political problems damaged the gun-control cause.
–Compiled by Rebecca Ballhaus
The U.S. and Iran oddly find themselves on the same side on the biggest question that faces people in the Middle East: Can the Iraqi government of Nouri al-Maliki survive? Iran supports the Maliki government because it's a Shiite-led government and Iran is a Shiite state. The U.S. supports the government because it's essentially the government U.S. troops installed. But can Iran and the U.S. work together? There will be a test of that this week, Washington Bureau Chief Jerry Seib explains.
–BIDEN VISITS LATIN AMERICA: This week, Vice President Joe Biden visits Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Guatemala for talks with leaders on regional, bilateral and global issues. In Brazil on Monday, he'll also attend the World Cup.
–NUCLEAR TALKS: Senior American and Iranian diplomats will convene in Vienna as part of international negotiations aimed at reaching a comprehensive agreement by July 20 to curb Tehran's nuclear capabilities.
–SUPREME COURT: The court issues orders. With two weeks left before the end of the court's current term, 17 cases are left involving such issues as the privacy of cellphone data, religious exemptions from the Affordable Care Act, and the president's recess-appointment power.
–ECONOMY: The Federal Reserve releases industrial production for May at 9:15 a.m. EDT. The National Association of Home Builders releases housing market index for June at 10 a.m. EDT.
Barak Mendelsohn, in Foreign Affairs, sees the rapid advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham toward Baghdad as the "harbinger of a tectonic shift within the jihadi movement. Namely, ISIS could supplant al Qaeda as the movement's leader."
Kori Schake, writing in Foreign Policy, places the blame for Iraq's new peril squarely at the feet of President Obama, for pulling out American troops before the country was stabilized: "Obama is now looking at the destructive consequences of his 'responsible withdrawal' from Iraq."
Meanwhile, Fred Hiatt of the Washington Post views the Iraq mess against the backdrop of a long struggle within the Obama administration between "minimalists" who wanted to reduce America's engagement in the Middle East and shift focus to Asia, and "engagers" who wanted to stay more directly involved in the region. The minimalists prevailed.
The defeat of Rep. Eric Cantor, the second-ranking Republican in the House, in a primary election last week wasn't the result of tea-party activism, or anti-immigration sentiment, writes Salena Zito on RealClearPolitics, but rather the latest sign of a spreading, moderate populism based in economic fear and shown in anti-establishment sentiment.
In a similar vein, Peter Wehner, writing in WSJ's Think Tank, says both parties face significant problems growing out of a "tremendous amount of disenchantment" with the political class right now, though the party that finds a way to address that disenchantment "will do quite well."
Just over 174,800 people who had defaulted on federal student loans saw the Education Department take some money out of at least one paycheck in the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2013, according to data requested by The Wall Street Journal. That figure was up 45% from 10 years earlier and excludes individuals working for the federal government.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy has by far the fewest assets of any member of House GOP leadership. The California Republican is worth at least $76,000 and at most $266,000. House Speaker John Boehner is worth $2.3 million.

Once known for its dominant post players, the Carondelet High basketball team has kept up its winning ways by running opponents out of the gym.
For the past three seasons, the Cougars have remained one of the East Bay's best squads with their run-and-gun offense and full-court pressure defense. It's a style perfectly suited for senior point guard Natalie Romeo, who has signed with Nebraska, but one veteran coach Margaret Gartner didn't use in her first 19 years at Carondelet.
"I needed to adjust with my players and talent," Gartner said. "With a player like Natalie, I didn't want to slow her down. We needed to move with her. It was a big change for me, though, and took me a year to figure out."
No matter what style of basketball Carondelet is playing, the Cougars consistently win under Gartner. Since she took over the varsity program 22 seasons ago, Carondelet has claimed nine North Coast Section titles and has played in the state championship game four times, winning the Division II state crown in 2004.
On Saturday, before Carondelet's showdown with St. Mary's at the Corner Bakery Showdown, Gartner will be honored for her 500th career win, which game during the Cougars' 2013 postseason run.
She credits the people she works with every day -- the players, their families and her assistant coaches -- for keeping her going at the same spot for so long.
This year's Carondelet team doesn't have much size, with the tallest player on the roster listed at 6 feet, and features just three seniors. But the team is in the middle of another fine season as it prepares to take on St. Mary's, which is nationally ranked and loaded with individual talent.
The Cougars are 13-2 and coming off a 108-50 victory over San Ramon Valley, which also pressed, resulting in a high-scoring affair in which all 13 Carondelet players scored.
Besides Romeo, who is a four-year starter and averages 19.6 points, 7.7 assists and 5.3 steals a game, the Cougars feature seniors Makenzie Cast and Gabby Grupalo.
Cast, who is headed to Loyola Marymount, might be the best long-distance shooter in the area while Grupalo uses her quickness to wreak havoc as a defender.
But in the Cougars' up-tempo system, which requires regular substitutions to stay fresh, it takes contributions from the whole team to be successful.
"It gets more girls on the court, that's what I like about it," said Gartner, who is also a second-grade teacher. "They all work hard in practice so it's nice to try to get more on the court."
The Carondelet vs. St. Mary's game, which begins at 6:30 p.m., will highlight the Corner Bakery Showdown, an all-day girls basketball event held at Bentley School in Lafayette.
Here's the rest of the lineup: Campolindo vs. Castro Valley, 10:30 a.m.; Heritage vs. Santa Rosa, noon; McClymonds vs. Brookside Christian, 1:30 p.m.; Clayton Valley Charter vs. Presentation, 3:30 p.m.; Miramonte vs. Berkeley, 5 p.m.; Skyline vs. Amador Valley, 8 p.m.
Back on track: The Newark Memorial boys basketball team tested itself with tough nonleague games throughout November and December. Now that it's January, the Cougars have hit their stride and appear primed for another Mission Valley Athletic League title.
Starting with a 59-56 win over Sheldon-Sacramento on Dec. 30 in the National Division of the Under Armour Holiday Classic in San Diego, Newark Memorial had reeled off seven straight wins going into Wednesday's home game against Washington. Along the way, the Cougars beat Moreau Catholic 74-48 on Jan. 10 and on Monday, topped previously unbeaten Jesuit-Carmichael 60-50.
After a slow first half against Jesuit, Newark Memorial started to take control in the second half and pulled away in the final two minutes. Senior forward Matthew Thomas scored 15 of his 20 points in the second half.

Threat Closes US Embassies Everywhere on Sunday
Posted August 2nd, 2013 @ 9:11am by Kevin Spak, Newser Staff
(NEWSER) – The State Department has ordered many embassies in the Middle East and elsewhere to close on Sunday in response to a terror threat. A State Department spokeswoman said the closings come out of an "abundance of caution," but warned that they could stretch on for days "depending on our analysis." Security officials tell NBC News that the threat appears to be tied to Ramadan, while others tell the New York Times an al-Qaeda affiliate is at the root of the threat. Sunday is a typical workday in the Muslim world, following a Friday-Saturday weekend.

SAN JOSE — Sharks general manager Doug Wilson has broken 24 hours of silence to declare that the suspension of Raffi Torres for the duration of the playoff series against the Los Angeles Kings is "grossly unfair to Raffi, his teammates and our fans."
"The Sharks organization fully supports the NHL in its efforts to remove illegal and dangerous hits from the game," Wilson said in a prepared statement, "but we strongly disagree with the NHL's decision to suspend Raffi Torres."
Wilson also stated that Torres will not appeal the ruling so as not to be a distraction while the playoffs continue.
Wilson characterized Torres' contact with Los Angeles Kings center Jarret Stoll as "a clean hockey hit" that does not meet the criteria for punishment under Rule 48.1, the passage cited by NHL disciplinarian Brendan Shanahan in suspending Torres.
"As noted by the NHL, Raffi's initial point of contact was a shoulder-to-shoulder hit on an opponent who was playing the puck," Wilson said. "He did not leave his feet or elevate, he kept his shoulder tucked and elbow down at his side, and he was gliding - not skating or charging."
The rule bans hits where the head is targeted and the principal point of contact.
"With the use of the word 'and,' this rule clearly states that two elements must occur in order to violate the rule," Wilson said. "Raffi absolutely did not target his opponent's head on the play. The call on the ice specifically acknowledged that the head was not targeted and nowhere in the NHL's ruling does it insinuate or suggest that the opponent's head was targeted."
Wilson called it unfortunate that Stoll was injured in the play, but also cites the provision of the rule that says whether the player being hit put himself in a vulnerable position can also be considered.
"As evidenced in the video, just prior to Torres making contact with the opposing player," Wilson said, "that player altered his posture to play a bouncing puck with his hand, placing himself in a vulnerable position.
The Sharks general manager accused the league of "trying to make an example out of a player who is being judged on past events, one who has changed his game dramatically this season and taken only six minor penalties in 39 games."
Torres practiced with the team Friday, but was not made available to the media.

Macks Creek residents may have heard celebratory sounds of horns honking Tuesday night in lieu of what many are calling a victory for the town. Sixty-nine percent of the voters elected to dissolve the City of Macks Creek in the primary election. Dissolving the city simply means the city government will no longer be in place. The town itself will still be where it has always been.
Jerry Palmer and friends gathered at Palmer Feed to watch the results come in via the internet. Palmer said you could hear "a lot of screaming and shouting." Happy residents even took to the parking lot to let out their excitement. That's when they piled into their vehicles and took their joy to the streets. Palmer said that Captain Kelly Luttrell of the Camden County Sheriff's Department told the group "no honking after 9 p.m." So, they rejoiced until their curfew.
The day after the vote, the town was quiet. No sounds of horns honking or arguing between people with opposing viewpoints. "I'm glad it's over with," said one resident as she sat outside of what will be formerly known as Macks Creek City Hall. "It's time it got settled. There was too much fighting and bickering," another resident said.
Residents spoke of their dissatisfaction with the city government. Roads had gone ungraded for months, and some, years at a time. They are now hopeful that the county will be able to step in and take care of the town.
Many attribute "bad financial decisions" to how Macks Creek ended up in bad shape. Rumor has it that the city owes more than what it has in the bank. "When you can't operate, you are just done," Joe Crain said. Crain was one of the people spearhead the dissolve Macks Creek campaign. A day after the vote, Crain was breathing a sigh of relief. "It proved the people here are unhappy with what was going on," he said of the vote.
Palmer said he is "relieved and looking for a brighter future." To him, the vote was a step in the right direction. "People joined together to make Macks Creek the way it was years ago — peaceful," he said.
Macks Creek had the opportunity to dissolve the town in a previous election, but missed the margin needed by a few votes. At least 60 percent of the vote was needed to pass the issue. This year, it passed easily with 63 'yes' votes and 28 'no' votes. Palmer contributes "an outpour of supporters and a lot of hard work" to the dissolution passing.
One active member in the dissolution process, Leslie Chamberlin, started a Facebook group, People for Peace in Macks Creek, after feeling like she and other citizens were ignored during public meetings. "We were tired of not being able to talk," Chamberlin said. "The peace page," as they call it, was set up to be an open forum for residents to share their views without the fear of being ridiculed. "It was my way of fighting back," she added.
Page 2 of 2 - Chamberlin credits the hard work of the people and social media to the group's success.
The results will be officially certified by Secretary of State Robin Carnahan later in the week. After that, it is unclear what the next step is for Macks Creek. Many also wonder what will happen to the town's beloved park. That is still up in the air.
Mayor Joel Stoner was seen removing items from City Hall Tuesday night. Residents did not see what he took. Some assume he removed personal belongings, but that has yet to be confirmed.

Propellantless Space Drive Called "EmDrive" Made in China

It's a a propellantless microwave thruster that defies Newton's laws of motion
Chinese scientists have taken on a heavily criticized space drive idea that could one day launch satellites, deep space probes and even flying cars.
The research team hails from Northwestern Polytechnic University in Xi'an, and was led by Yang Juan. What they developed was a propellantless microwave thruster called EmDrive, which is a controversial idea because it goes against Newton's laws of motion -- and many have claimed to create a "propellantless" thruster before and failed.
Newton's laws of motion are all based on the idea that firing propellant out of the back at a high speed will push a craft forward. While
solar cells offer infinite power
, thrust is limited by propellant. Many have tried to get around this, but several scams have made this particular field a joke in the scientific world.
While space drives tend to rely on Newton's laws of motion, the EmDrive is a closed, conical container that has a net thrust toward the wide end when filled with resonating microwaves. This goes against Newton, who said that no closed system could have a net thrust. However, EmDrive works because the microwaves have a group velocity (the speed of a collection of electromagnetic waves) that is greater in one direction than the other -- which is where Albert Einstein's theory of relativity comes in.
British engineer Robert Shaywer, who began looking at the concept of a propellantless thruster when he opened his own company called Satellite Propulsion Research in 2001, is the original creator of the EmDrive. He made demonstration thrusters to prove it could be done, and even made sure the test results were accurate (meaning, the results weren't affected by friction, ionization, air currents, electromagnetic effects or interference). The first, made in 2003, had a thrust of 16 mN. This was enough to show it could be done.
However, he received a ton of criticism for his idea and was ridiculed in his own country. But the Chinese team at Northwestern Polytechnic University believed in his research and took the project head on to author the latest study, "Net Thrust Measurement of Propellantless Microwave Thruster."
The Northwestern Polytechnic University team was able to create the EmDrive with 720 mN of thrust with a couple of kilowatts of power.
So what purpose does EmDrive have? It could halve launch costs of satellites because as much as half
the launch weight
of these objects are attributed to propellant.
Shawyer is even working on a superconducting thruster that could be ready as soon as 2016. It would boost the Q value of the cavity, which determines the amount of thrust produced. He said it could be boosted by a factor of several thousand, possibly equating to a tonne of thrust per kilowatt of power.

RE: Game changing...
Science does not know the value of pi. You have to use a word to describe it. In math, you have to round it somewhere. Math doesn't deal well with the infinite, while the universe and the energy and matter within it are. The scientific community is always trying to cram the universe into finite space.
Math is a language that cannot calculate much more than basic geometry and pennies in a bank. It has been fairly effective for a number of things, and in many instances it's the best tool we have. But at the same time, we have to recognize its limitations.
I have no idea who the people are you mentioned. There are a million names in the world worth remembering. I'm not about to begin figuring out who each of them is or how they're important.
Metaphysics... well, maybe you never got around to watching Stephen Hawking's Universe. The first words out of his mouth were "Where do we come from? How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? How will it end?" These are questions which are philosophical and more specifically metaphysical. They're good questions. Your problem is that you don't seem to know very much about science history, its origins in philosophy, the effects of philosophy on science.
You might find these branches interesting. But, you might also burn those books. I know that's what folks of faith tend to do when they hear heresy.
In any case, the reason the scientific community fears a device like this is that it would make them look like fools. It's one thing to uproot a theory, but to disprove laws of motion? That would be monumental. If this device works, and is developed and used for space transportation, we will see a fundamental shift in space travel which will rival our discovery of propellant. Going to Mars? No problem... it would take just a few months. Having a hard time funding the space station because of the constant necessity of having to use propellant? No longer required. Just upgrade it with one of these gadgets and it could be used to travel to inner planets.
And you? Well, continue shaking your head in disbelief. It might even be possible to use this device to break the speed of light, which would really make you irate.

Taylor Phinney gave up the track for the road. In four days, he'll learn if that road leads to London or merely the hills near his family's Boulder home.USA Cycling picks its Olympic road cycling team Friday, and the 21-year-old Boulder High grad is a top contender for one of the five road race spots and the lone time-trial berth. He believes he's an Olympian and isn't afraid to say it."I'd think I'm a pretty natural selection," he said. "I have to make a case for myself. I know how important the Olympics are and how important it is for my future."His transition from track Olympian in 2008, where he finished seventh in the individual pursuit, to road racer hit its stride last year. He was the first American in last year's world championships, finishing 15th, and in last year's Vuelta de Espana, in which he finished fifth.In last month's Giro, he made headlines all over Italy when he won the opening 5.2-mile prologue and held the leader's pink jersey for three days. It's unclear who was more overjoyed: Taylor, whose training base is in the Tuscan town of Lucca, Italy, or his mother, Connie, a 1984 road race Olympic gold medalist who was in Denmark for the race.To read this article in its entirety, go to http://www.denverpost.com/cycling/ci_20822827/cyclist-phinney-presents-tough-decision-u-s-olympic?IADID=Search-www.denverpost.com-www.denverpost.com

I made this soup a couple of weeks ago. I froze the portions, and I've been having a cup a week.
I really like having corn as one of the toppings. I add corn, cheese, tortilla chips, and avocado.

Time for a monthly bump and thanks, again, to Rebecca, for one the absolute bests in my soup files. I'd roasted three five pound chickens over the weekend and this wonderful soup got one. I never make it that I don't send a silent "thank you" in Rebecca's direction.
I was all set to make the Chicken Cordon Bleu from CL, but didn�t get the chicken out in time to thaw. I remembered I had marked this recipe, so made this soup instead. It is wonderful. Thanks for sharing and thanks to Bob for bumping it back up.
I had about 20 ounces of chopped tomatoes I needed to use up, so I used those instead of the crushed. I only put in 4 tortillas after reading some comments that it was on the thick side. Everything else I kept the same. I put the chicken in the pot to thaw and cook at the same time. This worked great, and when they were done, I removed them and the bay leaves. While the chicken cooled, I put my immersion blender in the pot, and blended everything together.
We thought it could be just a bit thicker. This could have been because I was 8 ounces short on tomatoes, or because I dropped to 4 tortillas (or maybe both). At any rate, it did not hurt the soup at all.
A big surprise for me was the cilantro. I don�t really like it, it tastes like soap, but left it in anyway. I�ve made a CL Pad Thai that had a bunch, and the whole thing tasted like soap. I go to a Vietnamese restaurant, and they have a noodle soup there that only has a couple of sprigs floating in it, and it tastes like soap. Someone said cooking it along with everything mellows it out, so I left it. You could tell there was something there, but it wasn�t soap.
What a great soup! Time for a bump.
There is a reason this thread is four pages! The soup was amazing! This is a bump for any poor souls who are even slower with their cooking intentions than I am!
Thanks Rebecca!
Thanks for the bump. I'm just seeing it for the first time and it looks fabulous! Can't wait to try. :-)
I agree. I'm amazed by the great reviews. I'll be trying it early next week.
I made this soup today WOW - it is probably one of the best soups I have ever made - delicious! Followed the recipe, a tad less cayenne as HE doesn't like hot stuff - I also put a small parm rind in.
When you use the lime at the end - are you adding separately or into the whole soup pot?
Thanks for posting!
and have never made it at home. I've been looking at this recipe for years, or at least every time it gets bumped back up
Oh sooo good!!!! Wonderful!!!
My subs( of course):
Made chicken soup, so used the "stock" from that", used the breasts from making the chicken soup, used tomato/pasta sauce (with garden veggies) because it's what I had, splashed some lemon juice into the pot at the end (because I didn't have lime juice). Also, I used 6 inch corn flat tostada shells (7 of them) because it's what I had. They disintegrated wonderfully.
Can't wait to have the left overs for lunch!!
Albert Einstein reminded us all, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of those people who don�t do anything about it."
I am one who uses lime and I do add it to the whole pot (to taste). I usually do not add the cilantro to the whole pot though-I prefer the stronger taste of it when it is added to each portion fresh...When you use the lime at the end - are you adding separately or into the whole soup pot?Elaine

I have several good tortilla recipes that we like, but with all the accolades for this one, I had to make it. We had family over for football last night, and the soup was a hit. The only changes I made was using Muir Glen Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes, halved the cayenne, and chopped up some jarred jalepenos. There was just enough heat while eating it, without it lingering long after your bowl was empty. This a definite keeper. In fact, DW was going to give a client two of my tortilla soup recipes, and is now going to give her this one instead.
Wow!!! This was great. Has a little kick to it, but nothing a entire family can't handle. It was enjoyed by the whole family, even the 8 year old. This is perfect to serve on cold nights, football watching with friends or when you have a craving for Mexican food. I think I will be asking to take home some left over turkey on Thanksgiving to make this again!!!
I think I must be the last person to try this soup recipe! I made it last week with some leftover turkey. I decreased the oil to about 1 tablespoonful and used a bit less chili powder. The soup was excellent! I will definately be making this again soon.
To take the first step in faith, you don't have to see the whole staircase: just take the first step. - Dr. Martin Luther King
It has been less than a month... but it is time to bump this recipe again. Some how I managed to miss this post over the years. On Saturday I was looking for a soup to cook for a Sunday gathering with friends. I found this one.
The soup was wonderful. I was a bit nervous about the corn tortilla pieces so early in the soup process... but they made the soup wonderfully thick. Lots of kids were attending the 'soup afternoon' so I decided to leave out the 2 hot ingrediants. It was a great success. With all the craziness.. I forgot to add the lime at the end and it was still great. I'll try it next time.
Thanks so much for sharing and for keeping this post alive! It is easy to make and so good!
Thanks RebeccaT for posting this.
I made this last night with my hubby's assistance and we both loved it. Thanks for sharing and I hope your holidays are filled with joy.
I finally made this yesterday with leftover chicken and the last of my corn tortillas. I didn't have fresh cilantro, so used dried. YUM!!!!!!!!!!!! This was delicious!
Everyone needs to believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer. . .
i don't have any corn tortillas, only flour. it's pouring outside and i don't want to go to the store.
do you think i can sub flour tortillas and still have an awesome end result???
Everyone needs to believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer. . .
This soup sounds so good...I'm definitely going to have to try it SOON.
If you have tortilla chips, I would skip the corn tortillas rather than use flour tortillas and just add extra chips at the end as garnish. I like my tortilla soup thin, anyway.
I just tried this but with 1T oil, and the cilantro added at the very end. It is very good, but needs sour cream to tone down so much cayenne, and I love spicy! I'd go much less cayenne for 'normal eaters'.
I adore tortilla soup here in AZ but just had an inedible one at a resort in Puerto Vallarta, believe it or not!

The Daily Startup: Electric-Vehicle Charging Co. Better Place Plugs In $50M as it Reevaluates Plans
Top stories in today's VentureWire:
Better Place has closed on $50 million toward a $100 million convertible note round from two existing investors, as new management of the operator of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles reevaluates its ambitious and expensive business plan. The company's investors in the convertible note round are its primary backers Israel Corp. and HSBC Holdings, according to Joe Paluska, spokesman for Better Place. "No other majors joined the round," Paluska said in an email. Better Place's large investors, which didn't participate, are VantagePoint Capital Partners and Morgan Stanley.
VantagePoint Capital Partners led a growth-equity investment in Next Step Living, a company that improves the energy efficiency of homes, in a deal that's a far cry from the ambitious technical investments the firm has typically made in clean technology. Next Step raised $18.2 million in Series C financing. VantagePoint led the deal, and existing investors Black Coral Capital and Mass Green Energy Fund participated.
Also in today's VentureWire, MetroMile Insurance Services has raised $4 million in Series A funding to sell car insurance by the mile, with a high-tech twist. "The less you drive, the less you pay," says Chief Executive and Co-Founder Steve Pretre. The CEO hopes to incentivize people to make healthy lifestyle choices like riding bikes to work…Citrix Systems said Wednesday it has agreed to acquire Zenprise, which secures and manages a variety of mobile devices for about 1,200 corporate customers including Dow Jones, the publisher of VentureWire. Terms of the deal are not disclosed…and Moderna Therapeutics, a company that is aiming to make ribonucleic acid, or RNA, function like a standard protein therapeutic once introduced into the body, has raised more than $40 million over the past two years to further develop its technology, a lead investor in the company said.

STOCKTON - Police are seeking a man on suspicion of attempted homicide after he rear-ended, beat, stabbed and attempted to shoot another motorist Tuesday morning in southeast Stockton, authorities said.
Officers said a man on his way to work was driving north on the Highway 99 frontage road near Rose Creek Lane about 7:10 a.m. when he was struck from behind by another vehicle.
The victim left his vehicle to exchange information with the other driver, but the other driver ordered the victim to leave, police said.
When the victim insisted that they exchange information, the other driver pulled out a black revolver, pointed it at the victim and pulled the trigger, but the gun did not discharge, authorities said.
The other driver hit the victim in the head with the revolver, knocking him unconscious, police said.
The assailant then stabbed the victim numerous times with a small knife, authorities said.
When passing motorists began to stop, the assailant got back into his vehicle, fled west on Rose Creek Lane and crashed into a tree, police said.
The assailant left the disabled vehicle near Vermillion and Zachary drives and fled in an unknown direction, authorities said.
The assailant was described as a Latino man with a dark complexion, 21 to 22 years old, standing 5 feet 6 to 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 185 to 190 pounds, authorities said. He had medium-length, dark-colored hair, a beard, a gray T-shirt and blue jeans.
The victim was taken to a hospital in stable condition with nonlife-threatening injuries, police said.

With Hamilton on third and Blake on second after she advanced on the throw, Beeson hit a three-run home run to give the Roadrunners a 9-0 lead.
The Islanders put up a run in the top of the fifth on two hits. After a J.J. Jackson grounded out, Laura Phillips reached base on a walk, after Michelle Sorenson came in to pinch run, Tefft followed with a single to shortstop to advance Sorenson to second. Mickayla Cochran popped up to shortstop for the second out of the inning before Galloway ripped a single right behind first base to load the bases.
