Arab Antisemites Attack Haredim in Jerusalem (Video)
If you haven't watched it, yet, here it is, the video of a bunch of Arab thugs attacking two Haredim with snowballs, giggling merrily. On its face it's kind of harmless, after all, it's only snow – but I can't get rid of that hollow feeling in the pit of my stomach that's crying out: Kishiniev.
The part where they steal one of the guy's black hat is particularly Kishiniev.
If so many Jerusalem cops weren't Arab themselves, I'm certain those hooligans would have been arrested and processed for disturbing the peace.

George Mesterhazy, 58, of Cape May, a Hungarian-born, Grammy-nominated jazz musician, died at home in his sleep early Thursday of what longtime life partner Vicki Watson called natural causes.
Mesterhazy's selfless attitude when playing and composing music made him the perfect fit for renowned jazz singers for decades. He translated this musical quality into everyday life, leaving a legacy of generosity on and off the bandstand.
"He is, by far, the most inspirational piano player I've ever worked with," said cabaret and jazz singer Paula Johns, with whom Mesterhazy worked for more than 20 years. "He could hear me breathe and knew where to take the song."

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Israel's Counterterrorism Bureau (CTB) reiterated a warning issued several weeks ago to Israelis traveling abroad, advising caution, particularly in the Egyptian Sinai, Thailand, Turkey, the Philippines, and Uzbekistan.
With the Jewish High Holy Days less than a month away, the warning was aimed at Israelis who often go abroad during the holiday season.
The CTB strongly suggested that Israelis vacationing in the Sinai leave without further delay.
Despite two recently thwarted attempts to kidnap Israeli businessmen abroad, Hezbollah continues threatening to avenge the death of arch-terrorist Imad Mughniyeh.
"In light of the specific present circumstances, the CTB has requested to emphasize the travel advisories," the travel advisory stated.
Mughniyeh, killed last February by a bomb planted in his car in an upscale Damascus neighborhood, was Hezbollah's deputy chief.
"Hezbollah has repeatedly blamed Israel for the assassination of their operative Imad Mughniyeh, which amplifies the terror threats. Thus the CTB has intensified its current travel advisories on kidnapping of Israelis abroad, especially businesspeople and more specifically those win contact with Arab or Muslim businesspeople," the advisory stated.

Mayor Celia Wade-Brown meets the Mayor of Beijing, 2011
The Assistant to the Mayor of Beijing, Mr Zheng Yijun visited Wellington in November 1994. The visit was followed by a reciprocal visit to Beijing by David Watt, Wellington's deputy mayor at the time. A 'friendly city' relationship was set up in 1994.
Based on increased interaction between Wellington and Beijing, the cities agreed to become sister cities. During the Sister Cities New Zealand 25th Anniversary Conference in May 2006, this relationship was formalised. Kerry Prendergast, then Mayor of Wellington, and the Deputy Mayor of Beijing, Mr Sun Anmin, signed an official Wellington-Beijing Sister Cities agreement on 10 May 2006.
The Beijing relationship is important as it links Wellington to the capital city of one of the world's giant economies. Beijing is the political, economic, social and cultural centre of mainland China.
There has been a very active link between the two cities, including:
In February 2005, Wellingtonians were treated to a fireworks display to celebrate the Chinese New Year. The display was a gift from Beijing.
It was the longest fireworks display Wellington city has ever seen.

you are viewing a single comment's thread.
Not that many here -- myself included -- predicted this kind of rise, but some reasons to justify it include:1. The 10-year around 4% and fully taxable federally, makes SJT's yield, even at these prices, attractive in comparison. If the 10-year were at 5.5% SJT's distributions would be less attractive at this price and we'd be lower;2. There is an increasingly held series of views that SJT has longer than published reserves, that the NG/crude ratio will turn more positive, and that both crude and ng will be staying up for the foreseeable future. Thus, larger distributions for many years are increasingly perceived to be in the cards;3. Many shareholders have large gains but are reluctant to pay both cap gain AND depletion recapure taxes and hence selling pressure is not easily brought about without a change in the fundamentals.I'm sure there are other factors, but these come to mind.
Just Another Thought?Think we have seen quite of bitof Press on SJT as "Yield Investment"in different Financial Publicationslike Forbes, Kiplinger & Others.When they mention SJT Yield, I thinkSome Investors who are not aware ofOil or Natural Gas Trusts might startbuying SJT which might be helpingrise in SJT Price in last Six Months.MD
hotpanera2 - as usual, you make some good points. I can only add one more: from a T/A standpoint, we're in breakout mode after a sufficiently long base-building period. Contrast the 30-day chart (parabolic) with the three month chart (hill, valley, mountain) and then the one year chart, and the momentum of today, with high volume, is upward.
re. your first point (interest rates) - if the 10-year goes to 5.5%, the ENTIRE market would be less attractive

Corn on the cob is a very easy vegetable to grill, you just need a grill, some aluminum foil, butter, salt, and pepper (or whatever other spices you want to use). Preheat your grill as shown below then put them in, takes about 15 minutes total (you do have to turn them once). Something you can try if you want is "soaking" the corn (some people like to do this, others don't): what you do is place the
|corn in cold water for about 20 minutes to let the kernels soak up as much moisture as possible, this causes the corn to be sort of "steamed" at the same time that it's being grilled. One modification I would make to the recipe I'm going to show you below is this: I would put olive oil on the
corn before grilling it instead of butter, then grill it, and then rub butter on it once it's done and hot–I think butter should be added after the corn is cooked since it'll get almost completely cooked off in the grilling process if you put it on before. Alright, here's what to do:
If you're a barbecue nut like me I highly recommend you get a book called How to Grill: The Complete Illustrated Book of Barbecue Techniques by Steven Raichlen–my favorite trick that I got from it was inserting a half-full can of beer into the cavity of a chicken: when placed on the grill it simultaneously steams the bird and holds it upright, allowing the skin to grow crisp.
If you really want an in-depth examination of how to grill corn on the cob then you have got to check this site out: GrilledCornOnTheCob.com.
If you'd like to talk to other people about grilling and exchange information, check out most popular grilling/BBQ forums on the internet: TheSmokeRing.com (they have forums), and The BBQ Source Forums.
Ever since I hooked an ignition coil up to a car battery and zapped myself I've been interested in 'how-to' do all sorts of things--I put some of them here.

Russian Firms May Face Rethink of U.K. Listings
Proposals to tighten London Stock Exchange LSE -1.16 % listing rules may force Russian companies to rethink their flotation plans, and will force those already with a main-board "premium" listing to reassess their corporate governance.
Companies on the LSE main market can choose a premium listing, in which they must meet standards over and above those set forth in European Union legislation, or a standard listing, in which a company has to meet EU requirements, a lighter compliance burden.
Non-U.K. companies that want to lower their capital costs and increase share liquidity often opt for re-registering their business to Britain and then listing on the premium market.
A premium-listed company is eligible for inclusion in the FTSE indexes, which in turn brings significant additional liquidity, particularly through index funds.
Eurasian Natural Resources Corp., Polyus Gold International Ltd, Polymetal International POLY -0.77 % PLC and other companies from the former Soviet Union have entered the London market with a premium listing in the past decade. Unlike companies from other developing countries, firms from the former Soviet Union prefer to list their shares abroad rather than domestically.
The majority, though, have chosen to let London investors trade in global depositary receipts, certificates issued by depositary banks that represent ownership of a company's shares. These are covered by the standard listing.
A GDR listing is cheaper, less rigorous and suited to companies that can't meet the stringent criteria of a premium listing. However, GDRs attract fewer investors and the funds that invest in indexes like the FTSE 100 don't buy them. Therefore, some companies are seeking to switch their GDRs to premium listings or get a premium listing from the start.
But a consultation paper issued by the U.K. Financial Services Authority on Oct. 2 may make a move from the GDRs to premium listing more difficult and force companies with premium listings to readdress their practices. The proposals in the paper deal with the amount of free float, the number of independent directors, and protections for minority shareholders, among other things.
The proposed changes follow a consultation period on the premium listing regime.
London-based law firm Linklaters says that "nothing is changing immediately as a result of the consultation paper, although it seems clear that changes will result."
There are a dozen companies from the former Soviet Union with the premium listings. Some of them, like Petropavlovsk PPLKY 5.99 % PLC or Eurasian Natural Resources, started their lives as U.K.-incorporate firms and obtained the premium listings right after their IPOs in London. Others, like Polyus or Evraz EVR -5.01 % PLC, moved there after years of being traded in the form of GDRs.
All of them would need to adapt to the new rules proposed. Some of them would need to raise the amount of free-floating shares, but analysts say that appears to be among the lesser problems.
The most pressing requirement would be a so-called relationship agreement. Linklaters said the FSA "would make it a requirement that a listed company or new applicant enter in [a] contract with the controlling shareholder to demonstrate its ability to carry on its business independently from it."
This will ensure that the company is run by the management, and not by the controlling shareholder at the expense of the minority holders.
The paper also insists on a majority of independent directors on the board where a controlling shareholder exists.
It also may introduce a new dual voting procedure to allow independent shareholders to have more say in their appointment.
However, Stuart Leasor, head of developing markets coverage at strategic consulting firm M:, said that in many cases "independent directors are not necessarily independent," and Russian companies would be able "to get round this requirement."
He believes that if the proposed rules go through, more Russian companies would opt for the GDR route in London, rather than seeking premium listings.
Igor Lebedinets, an analyst at Moscow-based brokerage VTB Capital, doubted that the companies already having the premium listing would leave it because "they have paid a lot to achieve that."

J314 Kafka on the Shore
Kafka Tamura leaves home on his 15th birthday = the 20th.
His father = Koichi Tamura, famous sculptor whose work is "provocative, powerful, uncompromising" (203)
His mother and older sister left when Kafka was 4? In the family registry, there is no mention of a wife or elder sister; Kafka is listed as an illegitimate son.
Kafka wakes up in a shrine at night, sore, tee-shirt bloody; 4 hrs of time missing
Nakata wakes up in vacant lot after he has murdered Johnnie Walker—but no blood on him.
He does rescus Mimi and Goma but can no longer talk to cats
He is in trouble; calls Sakura and spends night with her in Takamatsu – his sister?
Kafka's father discovered murdered on the 30th—died on the 28th = same day he claimed to have killed Johnnie Walker
pp. 105-108, Oshima and Kafka discuss the complete works of Natume Soseki; Kafka admires The Miner and explains why.
Oshima's cabin = quiet, dark, alone
Kafka was in the Komura library that day
Story of Miss Saeki's Song, "Kafka on the Shore" – did she marry and have a son in Tokyo in the 1970s?
29th sardines, mackerel and leeches fall like rain from the sky
"Kafka on the Shore" painting in Kafka's room – 12 year old boy Miss Saeki's love?
Ôshima mentions on p, 199 Oedipus Rex who was drawn into tragedy by his courage and honesty = Irony = which helps a person Mature
pp. 201-02 father's prophesy for Kafka:
"Someday you will murder your father and be with your mother and sleep with older sister, too."
"In dreams begin responsibilities" (Yeats, 204) did Kafka murder his father "through a dream?"
The song, the lyrics, the melody, the beauty, the senseless violence that shatters Miss Saeki's world.
Dreams, metaphors, allegories, analogies. That night Kafka sees a ghost in his room—the young Miss Saeki (205) Spurs Kafka's interests in hearing the song. The photo on the record—it oozes an energy she has since lost.
Leads to a discussion of the Rokujo Lady.
On p.225 Tale of Genji and Lady Rokujo come up. Living spirits passing down the tunnel of her subconscious into Aoi's bedroom. Kafka retreats with the Tanizaki Genji
Hoshino gives Nakata a ride. He was a wild child but his Grandpa always bailed him out. He joined SDF and is now a good trucker.
Nakata goes to Shikoku to find the Entrance Stone. Miss Saeki looked for the entrance to another world when she was 15.
Kafka and Miss Saeki have sex but she is in a dream or trance stare.
Enter Colonel Sanders—not a human, a concept with no form. A revelation leaps over the border of the everyday. A life without revelation is no life at all. (275)
Turns out, Miss Saeki interviewed survivors of lightning strikes for a book; Kafka's father was a survivor. Did they meet? She says no.
Kafka dreams that he rapes his sister, Sakura. But it never actually happened--only in his dreams--but "In dreams begins responsibilities" so Kafka feels respnsible.
There is a "thing," a dark shdow inside him and it has revealed itself. I don't yet know if this thing inside me is good or bad, but whichever it is, I canit hold it back or stop it. It's stil a slimy, faceless being, but it will son break free of its shell, show its face, and slough off its jelly-like coating. Then I'll know what it really is. Now, though, it's just a formless sign.(369)
Does this foreshadow the pale thing that comes out of Nakata's mouth, glistening with mucus? (452-54)
Kafka's theory: his father wanted his wife, Miss Saeki back but couldn't get her so he wanted his son to murder him, sleep with Saeki and his sister. This is the prophecy, the curse.
He and Johnnie Walker meet in the forest. JW believes the flute he made from cat's souls will protect him. His flute is beyond any world's standards of good and evil, love or hatred. He could make a supersized one that could become a system unto itself. Crow attacks JW with his talons and rips his eyes and tongue out. JW just laughs a silent laugh.
Nakata wants to return to normal Nakata; he needs to take care of Johnnie Walker and get his shadow back. For that, he has to open the entrance.
"Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart."
She opened the entrance a long time ago in hopes to prevent her perfect world form collapsing. She failed.
Nakata opened the entrance recently with Hoshino "so things would be restored to the way they should be."
Miss Saeki's life ended at age 20; everything after that, including a marriage, was meaningless. But, she wrote all her memories down. A record of her life.
The PROCESS (of writing) was important, and necessary; but the final product is meaningless, she says. (392)
Now, she needs Nakata to burn the manuscript that contains all of her memories.
Nakata puts his hands on hers and siphons off her pain. She too has only half a shadow.
She then dies at her desk.
Hoshino introduced to Beethoven's Archduke Trio in a coffee shop—by the Million Dollar Trio. He wrote it when he was 40 and never wrote another. His best.
Likened to Truffaut's 400 Blows and Shoot the Piano Player—a similar spirit animates them, "an inward-moving spirit filled with a pliant, youthful curiosity."
Kafka winds up deep in the forest in the strange village where time does not exist. Or, anyway, "It is not much of a factor, here." If you accept its premises, you can become completely yourself. Memories, like time, are not so important there. "In a place where time isn't important, neither is memory." (438)
She tells Kafka that he has to get out of there as quickly as he can. She wants him to go back to the life he left and live a life. The entrance is going to close soon.
"If you remember me, I don't care if everyone else forgets." (440)
"After all, the painting is originally yours.You were there and I was there beside you, watching you. On the shore, a long time ago." (441)
So are Kafka and Miss Saeki's lover somehow one?
Miss Saeki: "Farewell, Kafka Tamura. Go back to where you belong and live."
Kafka: "Miss Saeki, I don't know what it means to live
Miss Saeki: "Look at the painting. Keep looking at the painting, just like I did."
And she leaves. (442)
When Kakfka gets back to Oshima's cabin it is 4:16 pm. Back at the Komura library, Miss Saeki dies at 4:35 pm on Tuesday.
"But I still don't know anything about life."
This suggests some closure and some new beginnings. Kafka has completed his quest, he has survived the metaphorical sandstorm.
He journeyed deep into the heart of the forest, into a place where time and memory don't count for very much;
he could have stayed there forever but he does not. He returns to face his life and all its challenges. He assumes responsibility.
He has come through his journey a changed person; he has grown up, become stronger, become more aware of how Memory and the Past may shape our lives in the Present.
Meanwhile, Hoshino must take over for Mr. Nakata who has died. An Irony: Mr. Nakata wanted to return to his normal self with the ability to read; but then they just burned all Miss Saeki's memories.
Murakami states in an interview:
"Kafka on the Shore contains several riddles, but there aren't any solutions provided. Instead several of these riddles combine, and through their interaction the possibility of a solution takes shape. And the form this solution takes will be different for each reader. To put it another way, the riddles function as part of the solution. It's hard to explain, but that's the kind of novel I set out to write."
So Murakami is bringing an open text to the reader who has to write him or herself into it.
What are the riddles?
1. They could be about IDENTITY. Who is Kafka and does part of him become part of Nakata? How about MEMORIES? Do MEMORIES make Identity? In the place deep in the forest, memories and time do not really mean much; they are no longer important.
2.They could also be about REALITY--what is it? where is it? Among the CHARACTERS, hich ones are real and when are they real?
Kafka, Nakata, the 15-year old Miss Saeki, the 50-year-old Miss Saeki, Johnnie Walker, Colonel Sanders, Sakura. Which ones are real? We never actually meet Kafka's father but he seems to be an empty man, Hollow Man, devoid of spirit--so he somehow becomes Johnnie Walker?
3. Could also be about a Body and Spirit dichotomy: Does Kafka's spirit join with Nakata's?
Clearly, Nakata's spirit does join with Hoshino's...At least their paths join alnong their journey together.
4. Is Miss Saeki Kafka's mother? She says no. She has no memory of Kafka's father or having children.
She also says at the end that Kafka knows the answer. But do we? All we are told is that if the "truth" gets articulated, it would not have any meaning; it would lose its meaning.
5. But is Miss Saeki really there, really present when we meet her in her 50s? Miss Saeki lost her spirit when her lover died; she can only live in the past after age 20. And she only has half of her shadow (like Nakata). So, she has not been really living or really WHOLE since she was 20.
Where does Miss Saeki's spirit go after she dies?
6. The nature of Kafka's JOURNEY. Kafka leaves home to search for his spirit. He says that "the journey I am taking is inside; what I am seeing is my inner self." (397)
He is no longer experiencing the fear he once did. Does the spirit of Miss Saeki's boyfriend find a place in Kafka?
7. Is Kafka's journey about reuniting his Mind and Spirit with his Body? Remember that "When you come out of this metaphysical sand]storm you won't be the same person who walked in. That's what this storm's all about." Is that what the journey is all about, too?
8. What is the long, pale slim object that comes out of Nakata's mouth? It has a tail like a salamander, but no legs, no eyes, no mouth or nose. Thick as a man's arm, it glistens like mucus. Once the entrance is closed, it can be disposed of easily. (452-54)
9. The text is not subtle about pointing our that everything is Metaphor (Goethe).
Is everyone, are all the characters METAPHORS? Johnnie Walker, Colonel Sanders?
10. Is this a narrative about becoming WHOLE?
SO, it is not just a JOURNEY of self-discovery but about uniting Body, Mind, Spirit in order to forge a new, genuine, real IDENTITY? These sorts of thing only have real MEANING or VALUE if you do them yourself, if you take charge and embark on the journey. Isn't that what Kafka is doing?
Much is made of the fact that Murakami usually has protagonists in their late 20s or 30s. A 15-year old is a new departure for him. Why did he do this? Is it because it is a time of character and identity formation?

On opening night of the season, the Rancocas Valley girls' soccer team made a big statement, earning a 2-1 road win over Burlington County Liberty Division rival Moorestown on Thursday.
Senior Julie Spracklin netted both goals for the Red Devils.
RV junior goalie Alex Tamashunas was equally instrumental, recording nine saves, including two diving, game-saving stops in the second half.
"It felt like November soccer in September," RV coach Jay Flanagan said. "It was intense, it was highly physical, Moorestown is very good, so to pull out a win, obviously we're very happy."
With 19 minutes, 36 seconds left in the game, RV's Rachel Kolodziejczak headed the ball across the front of the net, where Spracklin was waiting to deposit a wide-open shot that gave her team a 2-1 lead.

We estimated a weakening of the Southern Ocean carbon dioxide (CO2) sink since 1981 relative to the trend expected from the large increase in atmospheric CO2. We agree with Law et al. that network choice increases the uncertainty of trend estimates but argue that their network of five locations is too small to be reliable. A future reversal of Southern Ocean CO2 saturation as suggested by Zickfeld et al. is possible, but only at high atmospheric CO2 concentrations, and the effect would be temporary.
We showed that the Southern Ocean CO2 sink has saturated between 1981 and 2004 despite the large increase in atmospheric CO2 and attributed this saturation to increased windiness caused by human-induced climate change (1). Law et al. (2) suggest that our results critically depend on the data used. Whereas network choices do introduce additional uncertainty, further analysis indicates that the available body of data still supports a saturating CO2 sink. Law et al.'s network of five locations appears too small to detect the regional signal, and their ocean model has been poorly validated with observations and contradicts all five other published estimates. Zickfeld et al. (3) suggest that the CO2 saturation will reverse in the future. A reversal would be possible, but only if atmospheric CO2 reaches very high concentration, and it would only be temporary. We expect that the Southern Ocean CO2 sink will continue to weaken at least for another 25 years, and probably well into this century, and will have long-term consequences for the stabilization of atmospheric CO2 on a multicentury time scale.
Law et al. (2) reproduce the saturation of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink with their atmospheric inverse method and our set of 11 atmospheric CO2 observing stations (3). Conversely, we obtain an increasing sink as do Law et al. when using their set of only five locations (Fig. 1). This confirms that the inferred trends are not dependent on the method or model used but are present in the selected observations (4). We agree with Law et al. that inversions require a careful selection of observational stations. In our original report (1) we selected the largest station network that still reproduced results of shorter but better-constrained inversions. We also verified the consistency of our results with additional data records that were not originally selected (5). The results of Law et al. suggest that our sensitivity tests did not take into account influences of possible data inhomogeneities for signals seen only by individual sites. Over the long time period necessary for the detection of trends, the reality is that there is little redundancy in the available early data. In addition, sampling and measurement technologies underwent important improvements during the earlier part of the records. The selection of stations requires a balance of the need for sufficient constraints with the risk of potential problems and is partly subjective. We agree with Law et al. that the additional uncertainty of network choice, not specifically quantified in (1), increases the uncertainty in trend estimates. As explained below, however, the saturating CO2 sink found in (1) remains a more credible result than the increasing sink estimated with only five sites.
Law et al. invoke synthetic inversions to support that their five locations are sufficient to detect Southern Ocean trends. However, synthetic inversions are a necessary but not sufficient condition for concluding that a feature can be reproduced by an inversion. For example, if the fluxes chosen as "known truth" have an increasing sink both in the Southern Ocean and in the rest of the world [as seems to be the case in Law et al. (2)], the synthetic inversion will not fail even if the station set was not sufficient to distinguish the trends in these areas. Therefore, five locations may work in the synthetic inversions even if they do not work with real data (6). In fact, the five-station network of (2) does not include any data that could detect the northern limit of the Southern Ocean at 45°S and distinguish it from the tropics, and contains no stations in the Atlantic or Indian sectors (Fig. 1). Because there is no question that the global CO2 sink outside the Southern Ocean increases in response to increasing CO2 (7), it is conceivable that this behavior is then also aliased into the Southern Ocean. Amsterdam Island (AMS) and Ascension Island (ASC) provide additional constraints at 40°S in the Indian Ocean and 8°S in the Atlantic Ocean.
Nevertheless, Law et al. argue that the trend in ASC must be incorrect because the difference between ASC and South Pole (SPO) measurements is not identical to the difference between Samoa (SMO) and SPO. However, because ASC and SMO are located more than 15,000 km apart in different ocean basins, they need not be identical. We reviewed the instrument changes at ASC (8). Documented parallel measurements using older and newer methods do not indicate biases of sufficient magnitude. Undocumented biases from the change in flask type in 1992 are conceivable, although similar instrument changes at other sites (e.g., SMO) did not cause problematic biases. Reevaluation of site-specific effects on fluxes does not suggest a decisive offset, though further analysis is ongoing.
Law et al. further point out the larger number of bad flask pairs and the larger scatter in the earlier ASC record, which indeed call for caution. However, if ASC is considered unreliable on these grounds, this judgment would certainly also have to be applied to Palmer Station (PSA), which has similar scatter as well as substantial data gaps before 1988. Yet, PSA has been used by Law et al. Contrary to ASC, the effect of PSA is a more negative trend (increasing sink).
Law et al. argue that the observed seasonal cycle at AMS must be wrong after 1999 because it diverges from other Southern Ocean stations. All stations that Law et al. compared to AMS are located farther south than AMS. From 1999, the seasonality at AMS resembles the seasonality at Cape Point (CPT), which is located at the same latitude as AMS but farther west (Fig. 1). We reviewed the instrument changes at AMS (8) and found no signs of biases before 2001. However, a drift in calibration cylinders affecting data after 2001 was identified recently and these data are being revised (8). Trends in (1) calculated up to 2001 maintained the saturation of the CO2 sink, although its statistical significance decreased to 92.5% (from 99.5%) and the inversion set-up had a larger influence on the results.
To investigate the influence of the choice of network, we performed additional sensitivity tests. We tested the influence of individually adding AMS, ASC, CHR, PSA, and Baring Head (BHD) stations to a network of nine stations [similar to Law et al.'s but with additional Northern Hemisphere sites and excluding PSA (9)]. As in (2), each single station in this reduced network has a large influence and both AMS and ASC (individually) detect a saturation of the CO2 sink (Fig. 2). We also tested the influence of ASC, BHD, Halley Bay (HBA), Cape Grim (CGO), Syowa (SYO), Kermadec (KER), and Azores (AZR) on a network now increased to 11 or 16 stations (Fig. 2). The influence of each individual station is reduced by approximately half. In all cases using this enhanced network, a saturation of the CO2 sink was detected and was most influenced by ASC, AMS, and KER (individually). These sensitivity tests show that the selected network of stations has a smaller influence on the estimated trends as the number of stations increases.
Law et al. do not reproduce our results with their ocean model. However, they appear to contradict their own results published in (10) and results from all other process models published so far (11–13). In (10), their model estimates a reduction in the Southern Ocean CO2 sink with a trend of +0.06 Pg C year–1 decade–1, very close to our estimate and in contradiction to their trend of –0.14 Pg C year–1 decade–1 presented in (2). In (2), wind changes in the Southern Ocean do produce a saturation of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink as in (1) and (10–13), but this effect is entirely compensated by an enhanced CO2 uptake in response to heat and water fluxes, which differ from (10). Neither the model results in (10) nor those presented in (2) have been evaluated with time-varying observations. We show in Fig. 3 that our model reproduces observed variations in sea surface temperature (14, 15) (independent from our results), giving us confidence that the variability in heat and water fluxes in our model is reasonable. Thus, we conclude that results presented in (2) overestimate the influence of heat and water fluxes on the Southern Ocean CO2 sink and that the model results of (1) and (10–13) are more realistic.
Turning to the comment by Zickfeld et al. (3), the authors stipulate that the saturation of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink will reverse in the 21st century. In (1), we projected that the saturation of the CO2 sink would persist for at least 25 years, but we have not made projections beyond this time scale. For reasons explained below, we think a reversal of the saturation is possible, but not below an atmospheric CO2 concentration of ∼640 parts per million (ppm), and the effect would be only temporary.
First, let us explain why a reversal is possible. In (1), we showed that the observed weakening of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink was caused by an intensification of the overturning circulation in the Southern Ocean in response to increased winds (Fig. 4). The deep ocean is rich in natural carbon. In the current ocean, the concentration of carbon in the deep ocean exceeds that of the surface ocean (Fig. 4, left panel). As the overturning circulation increases, the natural carbon of the deep ocean is transported up to the surface, and the carbon of the surface is transported down to the deep ocean. More carbon is currently transported upward than downward, which leads to a weakening of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink.
CO2 from human emissions penetrates the ocean from the surface and only slowly invades the deep ocean. If the surface carbon concentration exceeds the deep ocean concentration in the future, the impact of an increase in wind on the Southern Ocean CO2 sink could reverse (Fig. 4, middle panel). The concentration difference between the surface and the deep ocean is currently ∼140 μmol kg–1, and the surface carbon concentration increases by ∼0.5 μmol/kg for every ppm increase in atmospheric CO2 (16, 17). This projects the reversal around an atmospheric CO2 concentration of ∼640 ppm (18), with large uncertainty caused by the patterns and depth of the overturning circulation, the response of eddy activity, and the reequilibration of carbon.
In the longer term, CO2 from human emissions will be mixed throughout the entire ocean (Fig. 4, right panel). Surface carbon concentration will then again be lower than the deep carbon concentration, and the strengthened Southern Ocean sink suggested by Zickfeld et al. (3) will, if it occurs at all, revert back to a weaker Southern Ocean sink. The ultimate partitioning of CO2 between the atmosphere and ocean will depend on the reequilibration of the oceans to warmer waters, higher winds, and the readjustment of marine ecosystems. Based on the behavior of the ocean during the geological past, we expect that some of the ocean's natural carbon may be permanently outgassed to the atmosphere and lead to a higher stabilization concentration of atmospheric CO2.
It is possible that the reversal hypothesized in (3) will not occur at all and that the weakening of the sink will instead intensify. This would be the case if there were a large warming of the Southern ocean surface, if the response of marine ecosystems to ocean acidification or other changes reduces their efficiency in exporting carbon to the deep ocean, or if the wind increases faster than the atmospheric CO2 (for instance, if climate sensitivity is at the upper end of current estimates).
The model of Zickfeld et al. estimates a strengthening of the Southern Ocean CO2 sink since 1950, whereas the observations and models we analyzed in (1) suggest a weakening sink. Zickfeld et al. show that a reversal is possible, but they provide no information regarding the time scale or the amplitude of change required. Based on the model we used in (1), which has been evaluated with existing observations over the past decades, we maintain that the Southern Ocean CO2 sink will continue to weaken compared with its expected trend at least for another 25 years and probably well into this century.
The detection of changes in the efficiency of CO2 sinks is extremely challenging because trends are only beginning to emerge from the noise (7). Yet, this information is essential to test the response of climate-carbon models, which have up to now been unconstrained by observations (19). The detection of trends from atmospheric CO2 observations appears robust to the inversion method used, at least in the Southern Ocean. Quality control of the observations is essential, but it must be based on rational criteria and applied to all stations equally. The exclusion of stations based on their unique signal risks removing real information. Early CO2 observations are too sparse and precious to reject based on subjective grounds. Thus, the aim of inversion is to extract signals from the early data and to quantify their associated errors. Although our analysis contains uncertainties partly underestimated in (1), both our inversion and process model results suggest a persistence of the 1981 to 2004 trends when applied to data for 2005 and 2006 (20).

I have been seriously thinking about finishing the thought I had last year about making a new flower garden in the side yard.
This garden area, has never grown much grass, so I pretty much feel I don't need anything on the ground first off. and my woods are LOADED with rocks, as soon as it dries up I plan on getting the tractor out there and hauling rocks.
My question is.
This area, is neither full sun or full shade. But too much sun for full shade plants like hostas, and not enough sun for full sun plants.
I think it pretty much gets afternoon sun but dappled. I do have some iris's planted over in that area and they do grow ok. But the daylilies that are in that area, do not grow well at all.
What kind of plants do you suggest I go with for this area.
I may have to work out a few trades this year to fill this bed.
But so far, that will be my only expense on this new garden, (trades) as I have all kinds of mulch out there and a huge load of chicken litter, although my husband would shoot me if I used it in a flower garden other than a veggie garden.
I hope to get this all up and started when he leaves for the pipeline. Will give me something to keep busy.
There are a few trees I will be working around with the flower garden. pine trees I think, maybe an oak tree too.
Contemplating a new garden this year
I have been seriously thinking about finishing the thought I had last year about making a new flower garden in the side yard.
Sounds like a perfect spot for hydrangeas ! And azaleas would love to be around those pine trees.
KathyAnn, can you limb up some of the trees to allow a little more sun in there? Sun lovers would do well there if they can get around 5-6 hours of sunlight a day. Some things you could try would be monarda, salvia, lambs ears, sedums, tradescantia, some pots of hen and chicks, pots of mints and herbs, elephant ears, spirea, astilbe, peonies. Many plants will tolerate part sun/shade. The trees may suck up too much of the nutrients though, so they may be in competition. You might have to fertilize a little more.
I suppose I could get Danny to climb the trees LOL their pretty tall.
but I really think we do get about that much sun over there during the day,
but I have grown monarda closer to the house on that side and it always got mildew on it.
sedums don't seem to do well over there either.
This is the side of the house that I alway s had those tables full of plants .
the part where I want to put the garden is more in the shade though. there is also a big mulberry tree in the center that shades alot of the area too.
I have never been able to grow azalias very well, maybe I could try a few of them there . I do have some hydrangeas in pots still from last fall, I will definitely plant over there. but 3 of the hydrangeas are prone to powder mildew, and the lady at lowes said they needed full sun to keep the mildew off them, I bought them on clearence cause they were full of mildew. I may have to put those in full sun .
I do have alot of peonies that I need to move, I could stick in that garden also.
There's also a very long bed across the front yard by the road, that's very narrow, and it's trashy, I need to clean it up and do something that looks uniform over there. I may pull up alot of those plants there and put them in to the new bed. that area also is in full sun, and not sure if those siberians and tb 's would do well in this area I want to move them to.
so much to do, I guess I won't have any trouble staying busy this spring.
I can see me climbing up in those pinetrees LOL I probably wouldn't be able to get out of there
Speaking of hydrangeas bonnie, I'd love to see if you can root me some of that big oakleaf in your back yard.
I also want to find that oakleaf alice hydrangea.
Kathy Ann, are you doing away with your rooting tables? Or will this bed be farther behind them?
What tables, LOL I put them in the greenhouse in the fall to hold plants :0( WE all know what happened to the GH
I do have 2 metal tables that are still out side, empty, and one in the garage that's holding my plants till spring, but 3 others I stuck back in the greenhouse.
The bed is also going to be back behind them aways, I'd still have room for them to go over there, but won't be having the metal tables there any more.
Oh man I did not think about that, those were nice and heavy tables too
Well, you have more room for new beds I guess.
I certainly will root you some of those oak leaves. Is Alice the pink one ? I think gardens oyvey have that one. I may be thinking about Amthyst or something like that.
What about some shrubby perennials like baptisia? Or the newer Echinacea hybrids that tend to wimp out in full sun? Or if it's too shady for that, some clematis, along with the oakleaf hydrangeas...hellebores, maybe? (Ny plain-jane Hellebores get quite a bit of sun currently, but they were quite happy in dappled afternoon sun before we took out two of our biggest front yard trees.)
Here is Alice
not sure if it turns pink later on or not. and I didn't navigate on that web site more than just that one page LOL
I think echinacea or baptisa would do well in that area. definitely going to be dividing some of my peonies, since i've never done that before. when should I do that anyways? I may not have the bed ready though by the time the peonies need to be divided.
What's Amthyst ?
I know i'll have lots of gailardia babies, wonder if they'll do good over there? they seem to thrive in full sun where I have them now though.
so many possibilities, I move plants around all the time, I may be moving them in and out of this bed before they find a permanent home.
I even have about 6 gingers that Terrie gave me last fall, I over wintered in the garage, I bet they would do well there.
Kathy I will look at our oakleafs also. I know I bought something in Nashville last Fall, but not sure what it is. I actually forgot about till now.
Thanks Kenny, you did give me an oak leaf at Kim's last fall too, I'm going to plant that in this new garden.
I guess i'm not doing so hot today, i've worn my shirt inside out all day long. Danny came home and said rough day? I said why, he said your shirt's wrong side out. .
Even had an alteration customer while my shirt was wrong side out, ha!
What about bleeding hearts? do they need deep shade?
I've gone to town with my t-shirt inside out Tiny seams, ribbed material - who knew?
Kathy Ann azaleas should do good in the area. Especially close to the trees. Azaleas need a lot of water and like to be mulched with pine needles. Before I got my irrigation system, I had a black soaker hose running under my azaleas. I covered it up with pine needles and left one end exposed so I could hook the hose up to it. I would let it soak for a couple of hours when I turned the water on. So if you can't get water to them, they are not going to grow. Sounds like quite a project. Know it will be pretty!
I love the bleeding hearts...... wondered how much shade they needed because I would love to try some of them as well.
I know whatever you do will look gorgeous !
A little more sun then shade on the bleeding hearts. They seem to bloom better that way. Also once they bloom they are pretty much done.
bleeding hearts should do well there then,
Thank you Genna. I can't tell you how much i'm looking forward to building this new bed this spring.
Oh, I thought they continued to bloom all summer...... are they just a one time bloom thing??? :( so disappointed to learn that! When do they bloom....ok, so I will go look on PF ....sorry.....
They bloom early Summer then fizzle out. Depending on where they are some of the foliage stays around for awhile.
They must need fertilizer, cause mine that I have elsewhere are little . and my mother's is huge.
Or at least it was 5 years ago when I was last at her place before sh epassed away
KA, those gingers should do well in your new bed. I know you had them in pots but mine have been through a winter here and did well in partial shade. EEs and some of the more hardy ferns should do well in your new bed. And spireas. I have several hardy shrubs that you would normally put in full sun in shaded beds and it keeps them from getting too big for the space but they still bloom well; spireas, forsythia, altheas, etc.
Terrye I have a lot of forsythia in the shade also. They bloom every year and like you said they just don't grow as fast. I think they get plenty of sun while the leaves are off the trees and that lets them bloom and then they are shaded during the summer when they are not blooming.
I see now, this is going to have to be a big garden LOL I'll be hauling rocks for weeks ha.
Hauling all those rocks around means fewer miles to walk, eh?
LOL, Probably not. but I could be too sore to do both ha!
kathy ann does the oak leaf hydrangea drop its leafs in fall?
bad question, sid told me that when he gave it to me,i can, retain things any more, sid gave me that plant he and his wife only grow native plants,they send alot of plants to the butterfly thing on mt. magazine every year. i think i was told he is sending things for the garden club sale this year. good people
Not a bad question, but I don't know the answer, I hope to get some oakleaf's this year but don't have any yet. maybe someone can answer that, bonnie has several I think. she'll chime in here soon and answer or kenny, he has some too
I have some and the leaves do drop in the fall.
thank you cperdue i am going to put that in a safe place, i keep a note book.try and write things down so i don,t forget. nettie
I have a foundation bed in simular conditions so I planted 2 types of viburnum,azaleas and spirea Gold Mound. Where it starts getting into more sun,I planted a weeping butterfly bush.
I bet that's a pretty area now. Azaleas would be something i'd have to purchase. I sure would love to have them around the edge of this garden though, it's going to be a big one. I just hope I can scrape enough top soil to fill it.
well,I didn't take into account that none are evergreen so right now they're all "nekkid" except the butterfly bush. I'm going to thin out and trans plant some of my jonquils in there and re-plant the plumbago my hub's killed fixing the plumbing,septic tank and field lines.
bigred i know we are doing kathy ann new flower bed but i have seed for new bees and ive nener had candelabra bush can you tell me anything about it. please! don,t even know the first thing about starting the seed. thank you nettie
candleabra bush?
KathyAnn, how bout some heuchera and tiarellas in there? Didn't you get some from a co-op? And lambs ears. Mine is evergreen. If you put any back there, remember it doesn't like a lot of water. You might mix some sand in the soil where it will be planted.
Azaleas are cheap--like $2.50 a gallon. Don't forget you can add potted plants, like mints and herbs and some of your tropicals if you still have any. And for evergreen stuff, go with the arum itallicum and strawberry geranium and sedums. You could create a "tower" of clay pots with various sedums in various foliage colors dripping out of them. And don't forget a statue or two or a bird bath, bench or something else for a little winter attraction. Maybe a bird feeder so you could watch the birds hang out there.
And if you can't find some bigger evergreen stuff, go with with something with unusual bark or branches, like a red twig dogwood perhaps. Seems like there is a hydrangea with red stems--saw it on Victory Garden yesterday but can't remember the name of the hydrangea. But the woman said it adds year-round interest, even in winter.
You could make a Mr. and Mrs. Potty out of clay pots to sit in the garden. Or create a tin man from old tin cans. Or make it a little gnome garden and put a gnome door on the bottom of a tree with little gnomes sitting throughout the garden.
Here's a cute Mr. Potty.

Jones path to The Opening happened earlier at the Nike Football Training Camp in Chicago, where he earned RB MVP Honors and ultimately his invite.
Fox Sports Next's National Recruiting Analyst, Allen Trieu gave his thoughts on Minnesota's running back commit's performance at the NFTC in Chicago- "The running back MVP was Minneapolis Washburn's Jeffrey Jones, who has great burst and quick feet. He's a very good athlete and had everybody talking with his speed and ability to catch the ball. Already a four-star prospect, Jones continued to raise his stock with this performance."
The 6-1, 190-pound running back is ranked the No. 13 running back in the nation and a four star recruit by Fox Sports Next. He held offers from Illinois, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Iowa State, Kentucky and Iowa before he committed to Minnesota. Many coveted the talented runner as he has the speed and burst to excel at the next level and early for the Gophers.
Stay tuned to GopherDigest and Fox Sports Next for all Minnesota coverage on The Opening, which will go from July 1 to July 3.
