Gulfstream Park has verified a world record set on its new turf course for one mile during the Jan. 3 opening day racing card.After much discussion and debate, both the time – 1:31.41 – and distance of the final race Jan. 3 were certified Thursday. The architectural firm of Calvin, Giordano & Associates confirmed the distance and Teleview Racing Patrol Inc. approved the running time of the race.The review process of the race – won by Argentine-bred Mr. Light – began Wednesday."We can give a surveyor's sign and seal saying that the starting gate was where it should have been, the finish line was where it should have been, and the rail was where it should have been," said Jim Thompson, P.E. The rail for the one-mile turf course was set 60 feet out Monday.According to Daily Racing Form's American Racing Manual, the clocking eclipses the previous world record of 1:31.63 set by Elusive Quality at Belmont Park on July 4, 1998.Fractions for the $37,000 allowance race on firm going were :22.91 for the opening quarter-mile; :44.80 for the first half-mile; 1:07.76 for six furlongs, and 1:19.97 for seven furlongs.(Chart, Equibase)

The string of better-than-expected reports continues in the United States. At the contrary, the E.U. Summit did not provide any guidance on the main issues. Greece remains on the brink of collapsing and the euro/usd could eventually decline.
The U.S. is pulling. Will it last?
Job creation is gaining momentum in the U.S. Non-farm payrolls rose by 243,000 in January from 203,000 in December. Gains include manufacturing (+50,000), construction (+21,000) and private services (+176,000). The unemployment rate fell instead to 8.3% from 8.5%. Business hiring helped, along with the decline of layoffs among state and local governments. Solid profit gains inspired companies to invest more in machinery and equipment. The ISM composite index improved for the third month in a row to 54.1. New orders moved-up to 57.6. The car industry scored good numbers as well.
Time will tell, if this is a sustainable recovery or just a move toward pre-recession highs, before stock indexes will decline to new lows again. The long-term bearish cycle that started in 2000 is still on-track and might last few more years. However, the line of the next economic cycle might have been drawn.
Ultra-low interest rate levels are supporting the economy and reducing debts for household, government and businesses. Additional cash-flow should inspire more balance sheet restructuring and maybe increase spending. The other side of the story is inflation. It should be just a matter of time, before it will increase once more.
Europe: One step at a time. Is it enough?
The ECB has extended a crucial financial lifeline to European banking institutions. Nonetheless, any delays in implementing the fiscal and structural reforms would increase downside risk and limit growth. Last week's Summit did not provide any clear line regarding the fiscal and/or political union. 25 European nations agreed on a few measures such as debt breaks and legal actions against countries that fail to comply. Any decision regarding a larger ESM and EFSF was postponed to March.
Confidence remains weak. Unemployment among the young population is a challenge and increases the possibility of social tensions. In Spain and Greece, it reaches 50%, while in France and in Great Britain is above 20%. Germany, Austria and Holland have instead low unemployment rates. In effect, economic growth is lacking.
In December, bank lending to private sector fell euro 74 billion, the largest monthly drop in history. Household credit plummeted euro 8 billion, while loans to non-financial corporation declined euro 37 billion. Banks are making more difficult to borrow money, despite the large injection of liquidity provided by the E.C.B last year.
The euro/usd is at a crucial level. It corresponds to the neckline of recent consolidation. A breakout failure could take the price to 1.28 and eventually 1.26. The Greece's saga is moving toward the end. A sell-off is still possible, although most of the bad news should already be discounted in current prices. According to the C.O.T. report for the week ending February 03/12, commercial and speculative positions remain near historical high levels.

Far and away, otitis media, or ear infections as they are commonly known, are one of the most common conditions treated by primary child care providers. Statistics no doubt vary from investigator to investigator, but I generally tell parents that about 60% of children will experience one infection in the first year while about 40% will have two bouts, and around 30% will have three.
Typical symptoms are ear pain, sleeplessness or waking up crying at night, tugging on ears, and temporary reduction in their usual hearing. Remarkably, though I see about four to six children a month who have an ear infection that is asymptomatic and found on a well check exam. Continue reading

TORONTO - In the span of 12 days, Jake Diekman went from being one of the most difficult pitchers in baseball to hit a home run off of to a guy who was getting way too accustomed to craning his neck and watching one of his pitches fly over an outfield wall.
Diekman allowed three home runs in a span of six appearances late last month. Before the first one, a game-winning grand slam to Atlanta's Dan Uggla on April 14, Diekman had allowed just two home runs in his first 84 major league games.

Outdoor recreation and active lifestyles – understanding behavioural change
Majestic mountain scenery and autumnal colour form the backdrop to this year's Outdoor Recreation Network conference in Highland Perthshire, at Fishers Hotel Pitlochry.
The conference will examine how behaviour influences people's choices in outdoor recreation and active lifestyles. Aimed at practitioners, policy-makers, academics and other stakeholders, delegates will gain insights into models of human behaviour and how to apply behavioural change knowledge to promote outdoor recreation and encourage active lifestyles. Case studies will showcase successful examples of transformational behaviour change and how 'hard to reach' communities have been influenced. In particular, delegates will discover how to enable people to make better choices for themselves in terms of outdoor recreation and how to make services more cost-effective and easier for citizens to use.
Speakers include Professor Sir Harry Burns, Professor of Global Public Health at Strathclyde and former Chief Medical Officer for Scotland; and John Lauder, National Director of Sustrans Scotland.
The conference includes an evening visit to The Enchanted Forest: a multi-award winning outdoor unique experience that explores the autumnal setting of nearby Faskally Wood through dramatic lighting and an original music score. There is also a guided walking tour in nearby Dunkeld, visiting and learning about several extraordinary Heritage Trees in Perthshire 'Big Tree Country'.

Soaring Crude Pushes Gas Closer to $4
Tuesday, May 20, 2008
NEW YORK, May 19 -- More gas and oil records fell Monday as retail fuel prices struck new highs and crude settled above $127 for the first time, tightening the squeeze on drivers planning holiday road trips next weekend.
Light, sweet crude for June delivery jumped 76 cents to settle at a record $127.05 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices rallied at one point to within 5 cents of Friday's record trading high, near $128 a barrel.
Meanwhile, Americans are now paying an average of $3.79 for a gallon of regular gas, according to a survey by AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Diesel, used to transport a wide range of goods, now costs $4.52 a gallon. Those prices, both records, are likely to keep rising, following crude's upward track.
"We're looking at $4 a gallon [for regular nationwide] once we get past Memorial Day and into June, given the oil prices we're seeing today," said Geoff Sundstrom, a fuel-price analyst at the AAA auto club.
Drivers in some parts of the country are already paying considerably more than the average. Prices in parts of California have been above $4 a gallon for weeks, although the statewide average is down to $3.96. Prices in Alaska and Connecticut are averaging just above $4 a gallon.
Those soaring prices -- which compare with a national average of $3.23 a year ago -- are straining family finances and prompting some consumers to look for alternatives.
In Pittsburgh, some drivers said they had been forced to adjust their spending habits because of higher prices at the pump, up about 17 percent from a peak at this time last year.
Rose Bonesso, a nonprofit worker, said that the rising cost of gas has "hugely" affected her spending and that she was trying to make fewer car trips from her suburban home.
"I definitely think a lot more before I either go to Starbucks or do anything like that because I know, all right, I've got at least $40 to $45 I've got to put in my tank this week," she said while buying gas on Pittsburgh's South Side.
A report released Sunday showed that average retail prices topped $4 a gallon for the first time in two metropolitan areas: Chicago and Long Island. The Lundberg Survey of 7,000 stations nationwide found the cheapest city to be Tucson, where regular unleaded sold for $3.48 on average.
Oil prices shot higher Monday on a report that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries would not increase production before its next meeting, Sept. 9. Algerian Energy Minister Chakib Khelil, the OPEC president, was quoted in government newspaper El Moudjahid as saying that "current prices aren't linked to the law of supply and demand."
The announcement came days after Saudi Arabia's oil minister said it had raised production by 300,000 barrels a day.
That increase, while largely ignored by the financial markets, should help grease a tight global market, said John Felmy, chief economist for the American Petroleum Institute, the industry's leading U.S. trade group.
"Certainly, seeing increased production is helpful in terms of increased supplies," Felmy said.
Daniel Lovering in Pittsburgh contributed to this report.

Barack Obama was elected president in 2008 because he was not George W. Bush. In fact, he was elected because he was the farthest thing possible from Mr. Bush. On some level he knew this, which is why every time he got in trouble he'd say Bush's name. It's all his fault, you have no idea the mess I inherited. As long as Mr. Bush's memory was hovering like Boo Radley in the shadows, Mr. Obama would be OK.
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
Barack got elected because liberals threw Hitlery overboard for a thin-lipped mulatto, showing that black skin trumps all other liberal victim denominators.
It was a democrat "War On Women"!
That last graph nails it.
"They weren't...creepy."
Just more proof that peggy is an idiot. She touted this asshat in the beginning and to my mind tells me she's not nearly as brilliant as she thinks she is. She should just fade in to the background because she has become irrelevant. How anybody can lay any sort of kudos on jimmah cartah is beyond me. Jimmah, just shut up and go build some more houses that'll end up trashed in the end. Laura Bush outclassed the other first ladies but that shouldn't have been much of a task in any case. You just can't buy dignity and respectfulness.
Can we dig up all those Noonan columns from back in '08 wherein she talked about how great and refreshing Brak was?
I have nothing but the deepest contempt for Noonan and I'm utterly uninterested in anything she has to say. She's simply a weak-minded trendoid.
Amen rktman!
Peggy is a slow learner. Thankfully, she finally admitted it.
Bill/Hillary had pictures of Obama in Muslim garb. But Teddy

candidate. Teddy screwed the Clintons bigtime--and went on to
endorse Obama publicly with Caroline at his side.

Hell is is closer to Stalin then Jimmy Carter...(and 360 degrees from John Adams and Ron Reagan.)
This is the man who spoke at the memorial service for Sen. Daniel Inouye mostly about himself.
The race, the case, a hope for grace.
The Wall Street Journal: October 30, 2008
The case for Barack Obama, in broad strokes:
He has within him the possibility to change the direction and tone of American foreign policy, which need changing; his rise will serve as a practical rebuke to the past five years, which need rebuking; his victory would provide a fresh start in a nation in which a fresh start would come as a national relief. He climbed steep stairs, born off the continent with no father to guide, a dreamy, abandoning mother, mixed race, no connections. He rose with guts and gifts. He is steady, calm, and, in terms of the execution of his political ascent, still the primary and almost only area in which his executive abilities can be discerned, he shows good judgment in terms of whom to hire and consult, what steps to take and moves to make. We witnessed from him this year something unique in American politics: He took down a political machine without raising his voice. A great moment: When the press was hitting hard on the pregnancy of Sarah Palins 17-year-old daughter, he did not respond with a politically shrewd I have no comment, or We shouldnt judge. Instead he said, My mother had me when she was 18, which shamed the press and others into silence. He showed grace when he didnt have to. Runaway TrainThere is something else. On Feb. 5, Super Tuesday, Mr. Obama won the Alabama primary with 56% to Hillary Clintons 42%. That evening, a friend watched the victory speech on TV in his suburban den. His 10-year-old daughter walked in, saw on the screen Obama Wins and Alabama. She said, Daddy, we saw a documentary on Martin Luther King Day in school. She said, Thats where they used the hoses. Suddenly my friend saw it new. Birmingham, 1963, and the water hoses used against the civil rights demonstrators. And now look, the black man thanking Alabama for his victory. This means nothing? This means a great deal. John McCains story is not of rise so much as endurance, not only in Vietnam, which was spectacular enough, but throughout a rough and rugged political career of 26 years. He is passionate, obstreperous, independent, sees existential fables within history. His self-confessed role model for many years was Robert Jordan in Ernest Hemingways novel of the Spanish Civil War, For Whom the Bell Tolls. Mr. McCain, in his last memoir: He was and remains to my mind a hero for the twentieth century . . . an idealistic freedom fighter who had a beautiful fatalism and who sacrificed for something else, something greater. Actually Jordan fought on the side of the communists and died pointlessly, but never mind. He joined his personality to a great purpose and found meaning in his maverickness. In his campaign, Mr. McCain rarely got down to the meaning of things; he mostly stated stands. But separate and seemingly unconnected stands do not coherence make. However: It was a night during the Republican Convention in September, and two former U.S. senators, who had served with Mr. McCain for a combined 16 years, were having drinks in a hotel dining room. I told them I collected stories of senators whod been cursed out by John McCain, and they laughed and told me of times theyd been the target of his wrath on the Senate floor. The talk turned to presidents they had known, and why they had wanted the job. This one wanted it as the last item on his résumé, that one wanted it out of an inflated sense of personal destiny. Is that why Mr. McCain wants it? No, said one, reflectively. He wants to help the country. The other added, with almost an air of wonder, He wants to make America stronger, he really does. And then they spoke, these two men whod been bruised by him, of John McCains honest patriotism. Those who have historically been sympathetic to the Republican Party or conservatism, and who support Barack ObamaColin Powell, William Weld and Charles Fried, among othersand whose arguments have not passed muster with some muster-passers, go undamned here. Their objections include: The McCain campaign has been inadequate, and some of his major decisions embarrassing. All too true. But conservatives must honor prudence, and ask if the circumstances accompanying an Obama victory will encourage the helpful moderation and nonpartisan spirit these supporters attempt, in their endorsements, to demonstrate. There is for instance, in the words of Minnesotas Gov. Tim Pawlenty, the runaway train. The size and dimension of the likely Democratic victory seem clear. A Democratic House with a bigger, more fervent Democratic majority; a Democratic Senate with the same, and possibly with a filibuster-breaking 60 seats; a new and popular Democratic president, elected by a few points or more; a Democratic base whose anger and hunger have built for eight years; Democratic activists and operatives hungry for business and action. What will this mix produce? A runaway train with no one to put on the brakes, to claim a mandate for slowing, no one to cry Crossing ahead? Democrats in Congress will move for innovation when much of the country hopes only for stability. Who will tell Congress of that rest of the nation? Mr. Obama will be overwhelmed trying to placate the innovators. America enjoyed divided government most successfully recently from 1994 to 2000, with Bill Clinton in the White House and Newt Gingrich in effect running Congress. It wasnt so bad. In fact, it yielded a great deal, including sweeping reform of the welfare system, and balanced budgets. Whoever is elected Tuesday, his freedom in office will be limited. Mr. Obama is out of money and Mr. McCain is out of army, so what might be assumed to be the worst impulses of eachbig spender, big scrapperwill be circumscribed by reality. In Mr. Obamas case, energy will likely be diverted to other issues. He will raise taxes, of course, but he may also feel forced to bow to a clamorous base with the nonspending items they favor: the rewriting of union law to force greater unionization of smaller shops, for instance, and a return to a fairness doctrine that would limit free speech on the air. And there is this. The past few months as the campaign unfolded, I listened for Mr. Obama to speak thoughtfully about the life issues, including abortion. Our last Democratic president knew what that issue was, and knew by nature how to speak of it. Bill Clinton famously said, over and over, that abortion should be safe, legal and rare. The rare mattered. It set a tone, as presidents do, and made an important concession: You only want a medical practice to be rare when it isnt good. For Mr. Obama, whose mind tends, as intellectuals minds do, toward the abstract, it all seems so . . . abstract. And cold. And rather suggestive of radical departures. Thats above my pay grade. Friend, that is your pay grade, thats where the presidency lives, in issues like that. But lets be frank. Something new is happening in America. It is the imminent arrival of a new liberal moment. History happens, it makes its turns, you hold on for dear life. Life moves. A fitting end for a harem-scarem, rock-em-sock-em shakeup of a yearone of tumbling inevitabilities, torn coalitions, striking new personalities. Eras end, and begin. God is in charge of history. And so my beautiful election ends.
It makes me sick to read this fawning piece. How did anyone not know who this guy was back in 2008. I think she was hoping to be included on the party list.
It's hard to know what to make of Peggy Noonan. She can be quite insightful. And so many people all across the political spectrum hate her that it's hard not to think that she may be on to something.
But in the course of an article, she usually does write something that makes one grimace and think that the haters may also be on to something.
National Review has a long symposium on the Bush years. They bring up some positive things about Bush that many of us have forgotten. On the whole, though, their attempts at rehabilitation don't entirely succeed.

A/N: I WROTE A THING OH GOD. It's been a while. And this is just a drabble, but it's something. I've been away from fic for a bit due to some personal RL stuff, so now I'm kind of easing back in. I wanted to write something sweet and gentle for Nezushi, something that to me demonstrates the way Nezumi tends to take it upon himself to be the caretaker and the giver and the do-er, while Shion quietly, gracefully does the same thing for him without him often realizing it. Honestly, I kind of wanted this to turn into sweet gentle sleep-sex, but…well, all good things will come in time, right? Right.
Hope you enjoy!
Nezumi always waits for Shion to fall asleep first.
Some nights this means lingering, searching for reasons to stay awake: he diligently ladles leftover soup into bowls for tomorrow's lunch, scatters breadcrumbs for the mice, and alphabetizes his books with careful dedication. Other nights—when Shion feels inclined to help with such mundane matters (which is almost always) and after seems to crave the comfort of his company—they simply tangle together on the bed in a comfortably intimate heap and relax into the silence.
Sometimes, in the pregnant quiet of those moments, they hold hands.
And it's an absent caress, that particular joining of fingers and palms: they touch each other idly, skate curious fingertips across delicate skin, twine their hands together only to pull away and rejoin them again. This often lasts for a long and pleasant time, but when Shion's fingers uncurl and his grip goes slack, Nezumi permits himself a smile.
Still, he makes use of the patience borne from four years of watching Shion from afar. As moments pass he focuses his silver gaze on the ceiling, recites lines from his favorite plays in his head, and reads the titles of book stacked in the shelves nearby until Shion's breathing deepens and lengthens into the soft, familiar rhythm that indicates heavy slumber.
Then, and only then, Nezumi allows himself to gaze at the boy in his bed.
Carefully he shifts and props himself up on his elbow, then realizes anew that Shion looks as innocent in sleep as in waking. Nezumi notes with satisfaction that a half-smile curves the smaller boy's lips, that his slim frame is twisted haphazardly in the blankets and one arm is flung out carelessly to the side. With gentle hands Nezumi strokes the silken tumble of his friend's ivory hair.
He memorizes these minor details in the way that he memorizes lines from plays, and poetry, and passages of novels: greedily, hungrily, with single-minded devotion. He's always felt safest observing from a distance; here, in this quiet, he can admire and adore openly without fearing that Shion will look back at him with tender, loving eyes.
He aches when Shion gazes at him that way for reasons he can't explain even to himself.
But right now nothing hurts, and Shion is beautiful and sleeping and alive in this small, warm dwelling they share. Each gentle breath lifts the smaller boy's chest; his skin is warm and soft and he sometimes makes small incoherent murmurs as he stirs. Nezumi takes comfort in all of these things, in all the sundry evidences of life and vitality. Sleep is a little like death, after all, and Nezumi hates it like he hates all the chasms that separate them.
Satisfied, he brushes his lips against Shion's cheek, against closed eyelids, and then lowers his head to his own pillow. As always, this small nightly ritual allows him to sleep peacefully. Closing weary eyes, he succumbs willingly to exhaustion and the delicious warmth of Shion's slim body pressed close against his own.
I'd like to sing you to sleep, he thinks fuzzily as his defenses weaken and rational thought stumbles. I'd like to sing you to sleep sometime, Shion. Come morning, he knows, he'll scowl at the very thought of such a thing, but for now…
…for now…
..I promise…I'll…
Thought and desire elude him; the day's tension dissipates as the rest of his thoughts untangle. And Nezumi, lost to slumber, doesn't feel the gentle shift as Shion stirs beside him and opens clear dark eyes. He won't remember, in the morning, the tender hands that lovingly tug the blankets up around his shoulders and smooth back his careless spill of his lapis lazuli hair.
Warm lips press a gentle kiss to his temple. "Good night, Nezumi."

Title: Can a prickly pear cutting from Harker Heights, TX find happiness in Long Island, NY.
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
QUESTION:Took a cutting of a prickly pear cactus from my daughters garden in Harker Heights, Tx. Her plants are 5'ht.& wt. Set it into a 10" pot with garden mix soil. Early July 2012, brought it home to Long Island, N.Y. Doing well, doubled in size, still in pot. Can I plant it in my garden, will it survive snowy, low temps. of this region? What can I do to help it along. Thanks,
Prickly pear cactus is in the genus Opuntia, and there are over 40 species of Opuntia listed in Texas. I am supposing that the one you have may be Opuntia engelmannii var. lindheimeri (Texas pricklypear) which was designated by the Texas Legislature as the state plant of Texas in 1995.
One solution is to leave it in the pot, and move it inside during the winter months, but it will soon get to big for that. The plant is used to growing in USDA hardiness zone 8 (average minimum temperatures from 10 -20 degrees fahrenheit). Long Island is in USDA Hardiness zone 7 (average minimum temperatures of 0 - 10 degrees fahrenheit) so that would present a problem. If you can plant it in a protected area i.e. south side of the house, and cover it during the coldest nights, it might survive. Be sure that it has well drained, slightly acidic soil.
The mission of the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is to increase the sustainable use and conservation of native wildflowers, plants and landscapes by growing native plants where they are native.

I got my bfp yesterday and am due Jan 20th (or so) with baby #4. I'm very nervous this time, having just had losses in Aug and Feb, so we are praying for a healthy pregnancy. If this works out, the timing will be absolutely perfect. Ds turns 8 february 1st so he will be baptized at the stake baptisms the following saturday (i think the 4th?) so all of dh's family plans to come out to attend that--and possibly be here for his birthday/party as well. So if we could do birthday, then baptism, and then baby blessing on fast sunday, it would be perfect! A busy weekend, for sure, but worth it to have family here! Baby will be small, but Weston was blessed at like 10 days because that was when family would be here. Its such a far drive, that it would much easier on all of them to have it all at once.

Roman author, Greek genre: Martial's use of Epigrams
An epigram is a short poem, most often of two or four lines. Its typical metre is the elegiac couplet, which is also the metre of Roman love poetry (elegy) and the hallmark of Ovid. In antiquity it was a distinctively Greek literary form: Roman writers were never comfortable in it as they were in other imported genres, such as epic and elegy. When they dabbled in epigram they often used Greek to do so. Martial's decision to write books of Latin epigrams, and nothing else, is thus a very significant departure.

Energy Efficient Shades, Blinds & Window Treatments
- Be kind to your pocketbook, lower bills
- Reduce energy needs
- Thermal picks maintain inside temps
- Absorb outside heat & cold
- Block UV rays, protect furnishings
Add energy efficiency to your home by choosing the right window coverings. An insulating window shade will quickly pay for itself by lowering your heating and cooling bills. Cellular shades are the best insulator with year-round efficiency, and shutters are also a great choice. Roman shades and custom drapery with thermal lining also provide good insulation. Remember that shades must be closed to provide insulation, so choose a fabric opacity that fits your lighting needs. Solar screen shades provide view-through and summertime efficiency but should be paired with another treatment for nighttime privacy and winter insulation.

As eluded to, androgens also affect the manner in-which body-fat is stored men typically have less body-fat than women and as such much of this is due to the higher androgenic nature of the male species as androgens have been shown to inhibit fat accumulation and storage, andronute. Anabolic: Anabolic simply refers to anabolism which in-turn simply refers to the metabolic process worthy of note, anabolism is the direct opposite of catabolism. This anabolic process aids in building molecules or perhaps a better way to look at it, the anabolic process strengthens and restructures molecules in order for them to become larger and more efficient, andronute.

Would another colour not be a better match for your favourite outfit? Check also the other styles of L2763in our 2015, and 2016 Lacoste range.
Expressive lines add character to the classical approach, making the glasses a must-have for women. Wearing full rim eyewear, you make it unmistakably clear that you are going the whole hog. The quadratic shape makes the face appear longer, due to its straight outer edges. The frame is, therefore, particularly advantageous for more rounded facial features. Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. Brown is the perfect alternative for those who find black too high in contrast. Brown flatters the face unobtrusively.
With the help of our digital dispensing optician, your prescription lenses can be configured according to your own requirements. Anti-reflective and cleaning coatings, antistatic and lotus effect are included as standard for plastic lenses.
Even if this Lacoste is presently not in stock, it is worth ordering now, because the current price can't be beaten. If you buy at Edel-Optics you get the best price, because "in the sale" is our standard.

Harrison Bruce "Bud" Tordoff (February 8, 1923 – July 23, 2008) was an American ornithologist and conservationist. He was brought up in Mechanicville in upstate New York, hunting and fishing, and gained interest in wildlife management and zoology. He studied as an undergraduate at Cornell University, returning to complete his degree after a period of military service during World War II. He had served as a fighter pilot in the U.S. Army Air Forces, making five confirmed aerial victories, enough to qualify him as a fighter ace.
Tordoff completed his doctoral degree in ornithology at the University of Michigan. During his professional career, he worked as a faculty member and natural history museum curator at a number of public universities. Much of his career was spent at the University of Minnesota, where he served as director of the Bell Museum of Natural History from 1970–83. He was active in ornithological and conservation organisations, and from 1978–80 was president of the American Ornithologists' Union. Most of Tordoff's research was on the evolution of finches, and he is most remembered for his role in the reintroduction of the peregrine falcon in the upper Mississippi valley.
Early life and education[edit]
Tordoff was born in Mechanicville, New York on February 8, 1923, the youngest and the only son among the six children of Harry and Ethel Tordoff. With his father, a stone mason, he learned to hunt and fish, and spent much of his free time observing birds and other wildlife, afield with his dog. He raised ring-necked pheasants for release, and started studying wildlife management, which he expected to be his career. He later said that shooting a black-throated blue warbler and admiring its unusual plumage sparked an interest in ornithology.[1]
In 1940, Tordoff enrolled at Cornell University, where he found that his interest in the natural world could be pursued in a formal setting. While he was there, he met Robert M. Mengel (his lifelong best friend, later editor of the Auk), who encouraged his interest in ornithology, as did one of his professors, Arthur Augustus Allen.[1] His studies were interrupted by his military service during World War II, although he managed to complete some courses while in the military.[2] After the war, Tordoff resumed his studies and in 1946 he graduated with a B.A. degree in zoology. In graduate school at the University of Michigan from 1947 to 1950 he studied ornithology under Josselyn Van Tyne and George Miksch Sutton, earning a Ph.D. with a thesis on the systematics of finches.[1]
Military service[edit]
In 1942, Tordoff enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Forces, and trained as a fighter pilot. He later recounted that he naively imagined flying as thrilling, and a way to avoid ground combat. His depth perception was low by Air Force standards, so he passed his vision test by watching another pilot candidate get tested, and figuring out how the settings worked on the apparatus that was used.[2] In 1943 he earned his wings, and joined the 352nd Fighter Squadron, 353rd Fighter Group, 8th Air Force. He flew a total of 85 missions during the war, in support of the Allied bombing of Germany, and reached the rank of captain.[1]
During his first missions, flown in a P-47 Thunderbolt he named Anne, he showed himself to have some ability, and downed three Bf 109 fighters, two during the first mission in which he engaged in combat. Returning in March 1945 after a period of leave, he was assigned a new P-51D Mustang. At the time aircraft names were under heavy scrutiny due to Nazi propaganda over an American bomber named Murder Inc. He named the plane after the scientific name of the hoopoe—Upupa epops—for the name's "silliness". In the P-51, he shot down two more German aircraft, including one chance strike at a Me 262 from long distance, just enough to qualify him as a fighter ace. Upupa Epops is now restored as close as possible to its World War II condition, as part of the Flying Heritage Collection.[2]
Scientific career[edit]
From 1950 to 1957, Tordoff was a faculty member at the University of Kansas and a researcher at Kansas' Natural History Museum. While at Kansas, he collaborated with a number of other ornithologists, including Mengel, Glen Woolfenden, and Norman A. Ford; together, they are said to have raised standards for ornithological museum work. Tordoff edited The Wilson Bulletin, the journal of the Wilson Ornithological Society, from 1952 to 1954. During that time, he convinced a local printer, Ayle Allen, to print the journal, and their collaboration eventually grew into Allen Press, a prominent publisher of scientific journals and books. In 1957 Tordoff moved his family back to Ann Arbor where he replaced Van Tyne as a faculty member at the University of Michigan, becoming curator of birds at the Museum of Zoology. There he advised a number of graduate students who went on to have distinguished careers, among them Frank Gill.[1]
In 1970, he was hired by the University of Minnesota, as a professor and director of the Bell Museum of Natural History. He headed the Bell Museum until 1983, and retired from the university in 1991. During his time at Minnesota, he helped build the new Department of Ecology, Evolution and Behavior, and raised a large endowment for graduate work in the biological sciences.[1] Recognized as an expert on running natural history museums, in 1978 he was hired to advise the University of Oklahoma on turning around the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History.[3] He was a member of the American Ornithologists' Union and served as its president from 1978 to 1980. He also helped start and raise funds for the Birds of North America encyclopedia project.[1]
Tordoff's own research was largely on the systematics of cardueline finches such as crossbills, continuing from his doctoral thesis.[1] Tordoff also collaborated with Alan Feduccia on the feather anatomy of Archaeopteryx.[4]
Conservation work[edit]
While at the University of Michigan, Tordoff worked with Harold Ford Mayfield and the Michigan Audubon Society to protect the rare Kirtland's warbler. From 1975 to 1977, he was the first chair of the Minnesota chapter of the Nature Conservancy. Together with Carrol Henderson, he developed the non-game wildlife program at the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. As a conservationist, Tordoff was known for his ability to engage a wide public audience, including birders and sportsmen as well as academics.[1]
Tordoff was especially passionate about peregrine falcons. He said this was because of his experience as a pilot, and that "his fighter was as close as a human could get to being a peregrine".[5] Pat Redig, one of his collaborators and the founder of the Raptor Center in St. Paul, called Tordoff the "heart and soul" of the peregrine restoration effort.[6] When he started his work, there were almost no breeding peregrines in the eastern United States, and the species was listed under the Endangered Species Act.[7] As part of his work to reestablish peregrines, Tordoff raised funds for the Midwest Peregrine Restoration Project, and ringed hundreds of nestlings. As part of this project, 1286 peregrine chicks were hatched and by 2008 Tordoff and his colleagues had established a population of 128 breeding pairs and growing in the upper Mississippi region. A key part of their success his idea to put peregrine nests on the top of skyscrapers in cities like Minneapolis. This not only increased the availability of nesting sites, but also drew the public's attention, since peregrines could be seen in cities and later on captured on webcams.[1][6] Season after season, he tracked the success of peregrine falcons and created a large database to analyse the statistics of the growing population. During his retirement, he devoted much of his time to peregrine falcon work.[1]
Personal life[edit]
In 1946, he married Jean Van Nostrand, and they had three children, Jeffrey, Judith (died 1970), and James. Tordoff continued his childhood interest in hunting and fishing throughout his life. He kept hunting dogs, especially English setters, his only companions whenever possible. In July 2008, Tordoff died at St. Joseph's Hospital in St. Paul at the age of 85, from the effects of Alzheimer's disease.[1]

WHEN it comes to choosing the best pub in Mackay, as a community, we are torn.
The Daily Mercury asked readers to fill in the blank on their Facebook page asking where the best place for a pub meal in Mackay is and were bombarded with suggestions on the best places.
There are plenty of options to choose from and depending upon what you want to eat will determine where you go.
Amanda Lemberg said Pinnacle Pub had the best crumbed steak.
"Pinnacle Pub has the best crumb steak and pies," she said.
But if you want the best schnitzel, go to Mount Pleasant Tavern.
"Mt Pleasant Tavern if you want an awesome schnitzel," Daniel Gooba Peters said.
Looking for breakfast on Sunday?
