Recently, peer-to-peer networks have been proposed as the underlying architecture of large scale distributed
social agent simulations. A number of problems arise when grid landscapes are used to represent
the landscape in these simulations, primarily because, in a peer-to-peer network, the landscape has
to be handled collectively by the nodes of the network. Two basic agent actions are identified as central
to these problems: look and move. A solution to these problems is provided in which the network
maintains a move-buffer and a look-index. Both solutions are configurable by the user of the simulation
and provide a trade-off between the scalability of the system, the consistency of the information
stored in the system, and the efficiency of the system.

Marion County sheriff's deputies on Tuesday arrested a man suspected of burglarizing a home Monday near Seminole Road Northeast and Mustang Road Northeast.
The Sheriff's Office said they detained and arrested a suspect and are working with the victim to make a positive identification before bringing charges.
The incident began Monday afternoon, when residents interrupted a burglary taking place in their home, the Sheriff's Office said. The suspect was described as in his 40s with shaggy hair, black pants and no shirt. He fled the scene in a stolen vehicle.
Deputies later located the vehicle in the 2500 block of Drift Creek Road Northeast and chased the man into a nearby Christmas tree farm, the Sheriff's Office said. Deputies believe the suspect was armed with a shotgun.
Deputies are not tracking the suspect because the area is rural but asks that if anyone sees the suspect to call 911 immediately.

'He's been on the ice since he was about 20 months old'
TRURO – Stacey Messervey kept her camera at the ready while keeping an eye on her two-year-old son, Kohen.
© Raissa Tetanish - Truro Daily News
Two-year-old Kohen Messervey spent some time on the ice at the Colchester Legion Stadium yesterday with his mother, Stacey, and father, Kenny (not pictured). The Truro parents hope skating will catch on with their son and he will play hockey, much like his father did when he was younger.
Kohen, however, thought it was naptime on the ice at the Colchester Legion Stadium during the pre-school skate yesterday. His mother couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, hockey is why we're here," the Truro mother said, while watching her husband, Kenny, get Kohen to his feet and start skating with an early skater learning aid. "His father was a hockey player and so his father wants him to be too. He's been on the ice since he was about 20 months old."
Messervey said skating, like anything, is a learning process and it's always good to get started while young.
"It's important for teaching them anything as often as you can at such a young age. I'm 30 and I don't know how to skate. I think it gets harder as we get older, for teaching someone anything. Plus, it's good to be out and active."
Kenny brings Kohen to the free skate every Monday afternoon to get him used to the idea of being on ice.
"We want to keep him active and this is great exercise in the wintertime," Kenny said. "It's great how he's coming along. This is our fifth time out and he's skating pretty much on his own now."
Being on the ice also gives parents a chance to bond with their children, as was the case with Linda Swart, her daughter Maryke and Maryke's son, Brody Antle.
"You have to get your kids involved in sport," said Swart, while watching Maryke skate while holding up her two-and-a-half-year-old son.
"Maryke is a flight attendant and is home this week, so it gives them a chance to spend quality time together. The ice is here and it's available, so it's perfect."
A number of skating sessions are held at various arenas throughout Colchester County during the winter for parents and children right up to those of senior age.
And if skating inside isn't what you're looking for, there are six different outdoor rinks in the area where one can find their edge.
One of two in Truro was recently re-located from Victoria Park to under the canopy at the Farmer's Market on the corners of Prince and Young streets.
"It's a better location, has a roof overhead and protection, somewhat, from the elements," said Larry Anthony, maintenance foreman with the Truro Parks, Recreation and Culture department, about the move.
While skating inside the arenas is available whenever ice time permits, it's another story when it comes to the outdoor rinks – it's all weather-related.
"When the weather is cooperative, we can flood at least once a day, sometimes we flood twice," said Anthony.
The weather also dictates when users can enjoy the outdoor rinks.
"They're both lit enough so they can be used at night," Anthony said about the two sites in Truro. "Most mornings when we go to flood, we see marks on the ice from people being there the night before."

A video from a Motor Vehicle Commission visitor shows a line of 27 people waiting outside the Jersey City branch on Saturday in 100-degree heat. But inside, there are plenty of seats available for people to sit. MVC Chief Administrator Ray Martinez said he doesn't know why people would be waiting outside in a long line and would investigate the matter. The incident happened not long since the Motor Vehicle Commission changed its hours, including being open on Mondays again and with extended hours certain days per week.
NJ.com users are discussing the video, what should happen to the staff at the agency and service at the Motor Vehicle Commission's outlets.
NJ.com user blazinblueye writes:
There's no excuse for this. Those employees need to see just how hot it is out there pounding the pavement looking for a job. Lucky nobody collapsed.
NJ.com user jcosj writes:
I don't know how DMV runs up north, but down south we do not have these problems. I pulled into West Deptford DMV, I got 2 car registrations, a boat registration and a new drivers license. I was in and out in under 10 minutes. That is how it is suppose to run.
NJ.com user micahandjen writes:
I've been using this particular MVC office for a few years and this is how they run it...all year long. 100+ degree days in July or -30 in February. They always make the people getting licenses get the forms and line up outside while registrations are being taken inside. I'm sure that is because the volume gets too high for license renewal/applications and that causes a problem that leads to a fire hazard. These people do wait out there while people are inside.
But lets not make a judgment about this based off of one person's video shot at one particular instance. Let's look at the facts...the person said the video was shot at 8:00-8:30a. It wasn't 100+ degrees at 8:00a. If anything it was more like 80 or 85. It doesn't get near 100 till the afternoon. I hate the governor and his politics, but this MVC operated this way before he came into office. If the heat got dangerous for these people...they can walk 50 feet to the Kennedy Fried Chicken or Dunkin Donuts down the block and get an iced coffee or water. They are under shade of the building, not in the direct sunlight (at least at this time of day). If anyone were to get into a true medical emergency, there is a police office there at all times and they are less than 10 blocks from a hospital. This is a non-story if ever I read one. Perhaps if this office is too inconvenient because of the space issues, it should be moved..or closed...or perhaps they should *gasp* rethink their policies. Now, I hate the DMV just as much as everyone else, but these cheap shots are pointless...this is bad sensationalist reporting at its worst.
What do you think of what happened at the Jersey City branch? Are you happy the agencies are now open on Mondays again? Respond to these and other comments by jumping directly to the comments section of the article.

Richard Claverhouse Jebb
Sir Richard Claverhouse Jebb OM MP FBA (27 August 1841 – 9 December 1905) was a British classical scholar and politician. He was a Member of the Cambridge Apostles, the intellectual secret society, from 1859.
He was born in Dundee, Scotland. His father was a well-known barrister, and his grandfather a judge. His sister was the social reformer Eglantyne Louisa Jebb, founder of the Home Arts and Industries Association; his niece, Eglantyne's daughter Eglantyne Jebb, co-founded the Save the Children Fund and wrote the Declaration of the Rights of the Child.
He was educated at Charterhouse School and at Trinity College, Cambridge.[1] He won the Porson and Craven scholarships, was senior classic in 1862, and became fellow and tutor of his college in 1863. From 1869 to 1875, he was public orator of Cambridge University; Professor of Greek at Glasgow from 1875 to 1889, and Regius Professor of Greek at Cambridge from 1889 until his death. His successor was Henry Jackson. He was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1902.
In 1891 he was elected Member of Parliament for Cambridge University; he was knighted in 1900. Jebb was acknowledged to be one of the most brilliant classical scholars of his time, a humanist[citation needed] and an unsurpassed translator from and into the classical languages. A collected volume, Translations into Greek and Latin, appeared in 1873 (ed. 1909). He received many honorary degrees from European and American universities, including when in May 1902 he was at Carnavon to receive the honorary degree D.Litt. (Doctor of Letters) from the University of Wales during the ceremony to install the Prince of Wales (later King George V) as Chancellor of that university.[2] In 1905 he was made a member of the Order of Merit.
The most important of Jebb's publications are:
- The Characters of Theophrastus (1870), text, introduction, English translation and commentary (re-edited by JE Sandys, 1909)
- The Attic Orators from Antiphon to Isaeus (2nd ed., I893), with companion volume, Selections from the Attic Orators (2nd ed, 1888)
- Bentley (1882)
- Sophocles (3rd ed., 1893) the seven plays, text, English translation and notes, the promised edition of the fragments being prevented by his death
- Bacchylides (1905), text, translation, and notes
- Homer (3rd ed., 1888), an introduction to the Iliad and Odyssey
- Modern Greece (1901)
- The Growth and Influence of Classical Greek Poetry (1893).
His translation of the Rhetoric of Aristotle was published posthumously under the editorship of J. E. Sandys (1909). A selection from his Essays and Addresses, and a subsequent volume, Life and Letters of Sir Richard Claverhouse Jebb (with critical introduction by A. W. Verrall) were published by his widow in 1907; see also an appreciative notice by J. E. Sandys, History of Classical Scholarship, iii. (1908).
He married Caroline Lane Reynolds, daughter of Reverend John Reynolds, on 18 August 1874; Caroline Lane Reynolds was born in 1840 in Evansburg, Pennsylvania. She was married in 1856 to US Army Lieutenant Adam J. Slemmer and the couple lived at military outposts in South Carolina, Florida, and Wyoming Territory. After his death in 1868 she lived briefly in Cambridge, England, and was visiting Paris at the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War. In 1874 she married Richard Claverhouse Jebb and joined social circles embracing George Eliot, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Charles Darwin, Mark Twain, and Bret Harte. His wife was a member of the Ladies Dining Society in Cambridge, with 11 other members.
He was buried at the Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground in Cambridge.[3]
His wife died and was cremated in America, but her ashes were interred in his Cambridge grave.

Rabies is a virus found in the saliva of an infected animal, spread to pets and other animals through bite wounds. The rabies virus causes an infected animal's brain to swell and may affect the part of the brain that regulates aggression, causing many infected animals to attack.
Other abnormal behavior by infected animals may include nocturnal animals coming out during the day or approaching pets and humans that they would normally avoid. The rabies virus is usually fatal once symptoms develop.
Although rabies is present in Cumberland County wild animals, pet owners can protect their cats and dogs from infection by getting their pets vaccinated at three months or older and keeping vaccinations up to date. Rabies vaccinations for puppies and kittens after three months are given as a series of shots which are effective for one year. It is recommended that pet owners overlap the next rabies vaccination before the previous vaccination expires.
After the initial series of shots, subsequent pet rabies vaccinations last up to three years. Both types of rabies vaccinations will be available at the county clinics at no cost to pet owners. Those seeking a three-year vaccination for their pets must show proof of previous vaccination that has not past its expiration more than six months.
Residents may go to any clinic scheduled and are not required to live in the township in which the clinic is held. For more information, contact the Cumberland County Department of Health at (856) 327-7602 or visit its website at www.cshealth.org.

It has been nine years since Ponchatoula last defeated Hammond in the annual regular season finale between the two schools, but with a playoff spot on the line the Green Wave answered the bell with a 34-13 win over the Tors.
"You played 10 weeks to get to week eleven," Ponchatoula head coach Mike Baiamonte told his excited team after the game.
Ponchatoula with the win over Hammond clinched the 30th seed in the Class 5A playoffs that kickoff on November 14th, the Green Wave is slated to travel to play 3rd seeded Brother Martin.
The Green Wave's road to the playoffs on Friday night was not made easy as Hammond kept the game competitive into halftime when the Tornados cut Ponchatoula's lead to 14-13.
But, Ponchatoula began to pull away on the next series as running back Joseph Green scored on a 56-yard touchdown run to increase the Green Wave's lead to 20-13 that lead was extended to 27-13 when Ponchatoula defensive lineman picked off Hammond quarterback Trevor Regan and rumbled down the sideline for a 48-yards touchdown interception return.
Hammond mounted a 14-play 60-yard drive that brought the Tornados inside the Ponchy 10-yardline, but the drive stalled there as Hammond was unable to find the end zone and turned the football over on downs. On the night Hammond suffered five turnovers, two interceptions and three lost fumbles as the offense was unable to score in the second half against Ponchatoula.
The Green Wave put the game away driving 80-yards on 10 plays as Joseph Green plunged in for a score from four yards out increasing the lead to 34-13 with the extra point added by place kicker Russ Bratton.
Ponchatoula finished the regular season 5-4 and 3-4 in district and reached week eleven of the high school football season on the back of running back Joseph Green who once again provided Ponchy with all the offense they needed as Green compiled 228-yards on 24-carries and accounted for three touchdowns on the night.

How to Get Rid of Roaches for GOOD!!!: http://youtu.be/ukqJv_h9UdI
I am just going to say that I have had an AWESOME experience with Orkin. I had a HORRIBLE ant problem in my home for years, and after having a baby I could not deal with it anymore. They only sprayed in my home once, and they sprinkled in the cracks inside one other time, and now they ONLY spray outside and I have been ant free for 2 years. I used a dealer and got a great deal where they only come out 4 times a year. SO worth the money. I honestly do not think natural remedies are going to get rid of your roaches. I tried everything on my ants before turning to Orkin. And no we don't work for them. LOL

GLOVERSVILLE - Johnstown's Ryan Auty drove hard to the rim and laid the ball in for the opening basket of Tuesday's Foothills Council game between intercity rivals Gloversville and Johnstown.
The basket marked the Sir Bills' lone lead of the game and one of the few bright spots as cold shooting and a staunch Gloversville defense proved to be too much as Gloversville cruised to a 45-20 league win.
"We did not run good offensive sets. We were just trying to find the first open jump shot instead of working the ball," Johnstown coach Scott Hale said. "Our shot selection was poor ... it was poor throughout the game. We shot 6 for 60. You can sit here and say we shot 6-for-60 and say that is why we lost the game. It wasn't. We took bad shots. But you also have to credit their defense tonight; it forced us into taking those really bad shots."

After Auty's game-opening basket, Gloversville went on an 11-1 run with the majority of the points coming off strong inside games from Hunter Goodwin and Barceem Dukes that led to one-shot efforts from the Sir Bills on defense and kept the ball alive on the offensive board.
The Dragons continued to pull away in the second period, putting up seven unanswered points before Mike Everest hit a free-throw with 4:15 left in the opening half to break the Sir Bills' scoring drought and put the score at 18-4.
Gloversville continued to roll with Zech Brown capping off the Dragons' second-period scoring with a 3-pointer, while Jon Heroth connected for the Sir Bills' lone field goal of the period with 1:28 remaining to put the score at 25-6 at the break.
"We were mixing our combinations on the floor tonight," Gloversville coach Mark LeFever said. "At one point in the first half, I think we had four reserves and a starter on the floor. The guys have been working hard and they compete in practice and this was an opportunity to get some looks out there. They all stepped up and contributed."
The second half opened on a positive note for Johnstown as Jerry Groom connected on a 3-pointer.
However, Gloversville answered with an 8-0 run before Heroth hit a free throw to put the score at 33-10.
Johnstown outscored Gloversville 5-2 in the closing minutes with Heroth adding a basket and Ricky Mitchell hitting a 3-pointer in response to a drive to the hoop by Barnhill to put the score at 35-15 heading into the fourth quarter.
The Dragons continued their steady performance in the final eight minutes. Barnhill closed out a 14-point scoring effort with a 3-pointer early in the period, while the Sir Bills' fourth-quarter scoring came from a pair of Mitchell free throws and a 3-pointer by Elijah Hill in the closing seconds to put the final score at 45-20.
"I am pleased with tonight's performance," LeFever said. "I thought we defended really well. All week and every week we preach defense and at times we have difficulties putting the ball in the basket, but tonight we got contributions from a lot of players."
Barnhill led the Dragons with 14 points and six rebounds, while Goodwin pulled down 11 rebounds to go with seven points and a steal.
Kevin Johnston contributed seven rebounds, while Corin Smith added two steals, three rebounds and five points and Brown finished with five points and five rebounds.
Mitchell led Johnstown with five points and seven rebounds, while Auty had two points and five rebounds and Heroth added four rebounds and five points.
"We are a young team but defensively I thought we did a decent job, which is something we need to do when not scoring a lot of points," Hale said. "Regardless of how bad we shot a lot of credit goes to Gloversville for running good defenses. It is our responsibility to find the good shot."
The Sir Bills (1-4 overall, 0-3 Foothills) will look for their second win of the season Friday night when they host Hudson Falls (1-5 overall, 0-3 Foothills).
The Dragons (2-2 overall, 2-1 Foothills) will look for their third-straight home victory Friday night when they host Queensbury (2-2 overall, 1-2 Foothills).

Flooding due to heavy rain is causing traffic delays along Route 57 in Warren County.
The section of highway that runs through Washington Borough was closed earlier this morning, but police in the area reported one lane has been opened.
Traffic in both directions is being permitted to alternate along that single lane.
Heavy rains overnight caused water in a local creek to swell near Prospect Street, an area where a bridge also is being repaired.
Police said they expect the waters to subside as the rains end later today.

Northridge redevelopment plan runs into delay
A plan by the owner of Penzeys Spices to redevelop the former Northridge Mall has run into a delay which could bring problems for the vacant property.

We're an established property management company that consistently delivers "home away from home" experiences.
There's not much to say except that this is the most fantastic home we have ever stayed in. Actually it's better in real life than the photos which do not do it justice.
Thank you for everything, it is always a pleasure renting a reunion property with you.
This is a lovely home with lots of space for everyone. The views are some of the best I've seen. Our favorite features were the views of the golf course and the lake off of all 3 balconies. The large swimming pool and the upstairs bar area.
We enjoyed our stay immensely. It was comfortable, modern, and convenient. I like the size and comfort of the property. We really enjoyed the full kitchen and modern amenities.
Whenever I would call to ask about a question or concern I had, it wouldn't matter who I spoke to, because as soon as I gave them my transaction number they would answer my questions very quickly and detailed. Especially questions concerning the house we were staying in, it almost seemed as if they were viewing a layout of the house as they guided us step by step to address our inquiry.
The wifi went down after a stormy night, but a member of your team courteously assured us the matter was in hand, and sure enough it was back up within a couple of hours.
Your team is outstanding! When I called with questions they were so polite and patient!
The house at Reunion and the resort itself was outstanding. Top notch and a beautiful place! Without a doubt, one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. The property was well kept and was very neat and clean. I would come back and stay there without a doubt. Thank you for all of your help and for sharing your family home. Sincerely,The Stewart Family
Service was excellent and very professional. We tried to rent with another vendor, but the service was so bad, we cancelled and went with you again.
What an amazing house! I would like to start by saying what a pleasure it was staying at Reunion Resort, especially in this home. We were provided with everything we needed and more! We especially loved the three story layout that was on the golf course, game & movie room, our own private pool area, and there is also a separate apartment. What more could you ask for?! Out of all our vacations, this was absolutely perfect and the best - clean, spacious, and extremely close to the Disney parks. We will definitely be back!!
We had a great time! I spent months by looking for a good option in Orlando and when I found the Property Ref RVH_171 in Reunion Vacation Homes it was like a dream come true. Everything was PERFECT! Great location, astonishing decor, brand new furniture and appliances.
Excellent! We will be back! Very clean! This was our 4th stay at the Reunion Resort and our 1st time with Reunion Vacation Homes. This is by far the cleanest condo we have rented!
Reunion is enough for our plans and all the family including children. We enjoy silence, cleaning, gardens, elevator, wifi and the best the place where is located! It is really comfortable.
We loved the property. The unit was very well kept and grounds were beautiful. The travel time to Disney parks was quick and convenient. We really liked coming back to the property to escape from all the chaos. We will be returning again this summer and look forward to another great stay at Reunion!
This is our 3rd time to Florida and first at Reunion. Staying at Reunion was the best decision we made. The resort is beautiful and well maintained and the property we stayed in lived up to our expectations. It was exactly like the pictures we saw on the website and did not disappoint one bit. The view from our balcony was amazing and the property itself had all the amenities and much more that we needed for our stay. Got to add the beds were the cosiest beds we've ever slept in. The location is ideal as it is so close to the disney parks. Literally within 10 mins you are at the parks. Universal was a bit further which took about 25 mins in the car. We did hire a car from the airport to get around. The convenience of having publix and a chinese near reunion was great too. We will definitely be staying at Reunion again when we come back to Florida as its the best place we have stayed at so far.
Reunion is a beautiful, spacious, comfortable property. We will stay again in the future. We would recommend staying here over a Disney property if you have a larger family. So much comfort, great ammenities. We LOVE Reunion!
Whether it's a family vacation, golf getaway, business event or group get-together, Reunion Resort has something for everyone.
Have peace of mind in case you need to cancel.

Six of our equipment advertisers in June, which focuses on equipment ranchers need, provide us some helpful information about their products' capabilities and safety features.
G-Bar Livestock Equipment LLC, owned and operated by David and JoAnn Rater, Jack County, is sole distributor in Texas and Oklahoma for quality American-made Pearson Livestock Equipment. G-Bar's operating philosophy is to offer superior products, treat people well and furnish outstanding customer service.
G-Bar's offering helps ranchers safely and efficiently work cattle and collect performance data — manual and hydraulic chutes, palpation cages, fully adjustable alleys with horizontal rolling block gates, tubs, and trailers for the chutes and alleys. Today's demanding economic environment requires the cattle raiser to earn the best possible return on herd investment, so G-Bar stocks Tru-Test Weighing Systems to help a rancher get the data. For more information, visit gBarEquipment.com, call 800-831-0567 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
CattleXpert Management Software has created a powerful Windows-based feedyard and stocker management software program. Their "1-time entry/single inventory database system" eliminates duplication of steps and human error, while increasing your yard's efficiency, measurable output data and end performance.
CattleXpert™ incorporates cattle accounting, chute side processing, animal health, sorting, commodities management, grain banking, individual animal management, bunk management, multiple loading and feeding options including manual, offline or real-time wireless radio frequency (RF) feeding and more. CattleXpert's reports can be exported into the program of your choice, such as Microsoft Excel or email. CattleXpert offers a tiered pricing structure, providing affordable options for beef producers. Contact them at 20507 Nicholas Circle, Suite 100, Elkhorn, Neb., 68022, 866-613-2869, or CattleXpert.com.
Alexander Livestock says whether you are giving vaccines, feeding, or even weighing trucks, a scale is a valuable ranch management asset, supporting efficiency and increased profitability. They provide chute scales, single-animal scales, alley-weigh scales or group scales.
Cut feed expenses by feeding exactly what is needed from your cake feeder, bale processor or mixer truck. Truck scales are available in platforms and are designed to weigh the truck by the axle or the whole truck to ensure it is fully loaded.
All scales come with a digital indicator that can run off AC or DC power. Options include printers, computer interface cable and customized indicators that use Bluetooth technology. Contact them at 512-756-0593 or alexanderlivestock.com.
Use a Root-N-All from Cedar Eaters and your skid steer to grub small, non-native perennial vegetation out by the root to ensure it doesn't grow back. USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) estimates that brush in Texas uses more than 3.5 trillion gallons of water annually. That kind of water use indicates a need to control the brush on your land. Dozing and root plowing seemed to be the only way to get rid of overgrown pastureland, but grubbing has become a popular choice due to the selective nature of the method.
Spence Hegener, president of H&W Attachments, says, "We wanted to create a grubbing attachment for skid steers that was efficient and effective. It was important to develop a year-round solution and to give property owners an option other than chemicals to kill small invasive vegetation like mesquite trees. With the patent-pending 2-pulling-point system of the Root-N-All, we were able to achieve that." Contact them at 830-370-6200, or visit rootnall.com.
Boyd Industries developed one of the first creep feeders nearly 50 years ago. It has remained functionally unchanged over that time and was designed to introduce calves to feed sooner, without competing with the other cows for feed. Creep feeding eases the stress on the mother cows because the calves are receiving more of their nutrition from the feed and are less dependent on nursing. This is especially important in the hot, dry months.
The all-steel design withstands years of abuse from cattle and weather. It will keep your feed dry and calves protected from the elements. The feeder allows you to provide special rations for calves without worrying about the grown cattle getting to it first.
The half-creep feeder feeds from 1 side and has a feed capacity of 1,500 pounds, which is enough for about 25 calves. The double-creep feeder feeds from 2 sides and has a capacity of 3,000 pounds, enough for about 50 calves. Both creep feeders come fully welded and ready to use. The product is available at most feed stores or at the plant in Boyd. Contact them at 800-611-3540, or visit BoydBuilt.com.
The Big Bale Flaker™ from Bale Buddy is an all-electric, completely remote-control method of feeding big square bales of hay from the safety and comfort of the cab of your pickup or tractor. If fits on any size flatbed truck or trailer and will feed any size large square bale.
The Big Bale Flaker is safe and economical, turning a 2-person operation into a 1-person job. Anyone who can drive a pickup can feed hay with this system.
Flaking the hay bale allows you to spread hay over large areas to minimize trampling loss. The simple design is practically maintenance-free. Contact them at 580-504-0777.
"Rancher's Managment Guide: Focus on Equipment" is from the June 2012 issue of The Cattlemen magazine.

A girl struck by a car on Old Owen Road June 20 is expected to pull a full recovery, said her father TJ Councill, but it's going to take some time.
The details of the crash still aren't fully understood, pending the outcome of a police investigations into the incident.
But police reported that at about 6:30 p.m. Friday, June 20, a car struck Kyleigh Councill, 13, on the 21000 block of Old Owen Road.
According to Kyleigh's father, no one saw what happened. Kyleigh's mother lives on Old Owen, and relatives live in nearby homes. Kyleigh had left her Mom's house to walk to the graduation party of a cousin when she was hit.
The family heard the sound of brakes and tires and ran outside to find Kyleigh on the ground. The driver of the vehicle stayed at the scene to cooperate with authorities.
Emergency responders discovered Kyleigh to have multiple skull fractures, a broken leg and other injuries. Kyleigh was taken to Providence in Everett and from there to Harborview Medical Center's ICU.
Councill said that Kyleigh will likely spend another week at Harborview before heading to Children's Hospital for what is likely to be extensive therapy.
At first Kyleigh's dad, a union commercial construction worker, was confident that insurance was going to cover all the expenses. But now he's not so sure.
"I was informed today that my insurance isn't going to be able to cover all of it," he said last week.
He's waiting to learn what, if any, of the driver's insurance will apply; if the driver is not at fault, the insurance company might contribute nothing.
So when Councill learned that friends of the family had decided to set up a benevolent account for the family, he was surprised.
"They took it on themselves, which is awesome," he said.
For now, he is spending as much time as he can at the hospital, he said. And he is confidant that Kyleigh will not miss out on her education because of the accident.
Already she is able to walk with a walker, and is having conversations.
"She should be okay to go to school in the fall," he said. "It wrecked her summer, but she won't miss school."
There is a GoFundMe page for Kyleigh called "Help Beautiful Kyleigh" at http://www.gofundme.com/ak4524.

January has been a busy month for me with the two Eddy's Extremes where I finished second to David Knight in the first round, and second to Johnny Walker in the second round. I was happy with both results as the courses were both quite fast. Next on my schedule it was on to the Tough One for the first round of the Red Bull Extreme Championship. The track really was quite extreme with icy conditions, really steep hills and lots of rocky sections, all for a duration of two hours. After a run to the bikes to start, I set off in third place, by the end of the 1st lap I had a 30 second lead and at the half way point I had lapped everybody. As the last hour was in the dark it was a case of not making mistakes, especially up the hills. It was a fantastic result for me and was good for my confidence.
After a few days rest it was off to Italy to do some training with Golden Tyre for the new Extreme Mousse and to test the KTM Freeride for the Scottish Six Days Trial, which was a real fun bike to ride. A few days at home then I went to Toro Trail in Spain to do some practice and we got some awesome video footage which will be on YouTube soon, so stay tuned! Then it was time to get organized for the King of Motos as it was a last minute decision to ride, with this being the first year of the event nobody knew much about it and Jimmy Lewis was keeping it top secret. All we knew was it was 60 miles of flat out desert riding and 20 miles of rocks, so it would all depend how difficult the rocks were for my result, as this is where I know can make the time up. I have no desert riding experience at all, so I knew I would have to adapt quickly, especially on the fast sections. I got a good start in second behind Kurt Caselli and held it for the first couple of miles until I made some mistakes on the whoops sections by picking wrong lines and was riding cautiously, as I was new to this type of terrain.
When I got to the first rock section I was glad to see it was quite difficult, as I could see the riders in front of me and realized I could get some time back. I passed some riders here and rode over a Kawasaki (sorry whoever it was), but it was soon back to fast going where I got overtaken again. This scenario repeated itself for the first half of the race. I was up near the front with Cody Webb and Kyle Redmond when I got completely lost and confused for over 10 minutes as the terrain all looked the same to me, so when I got back on track I really started pushing to catch them.
I passed Cody after he was broke down and then soon caught up with Kurt. When I got to the fuel stop I was told Kyle was 10 minutes in front, so I gave it everything from that point on and made loads of time up in the rocky gulley's. I eventually caught up with Kyle and passed him. I got a few minutes lead then got lost again, but luckily Kyle had broken his GPS and also got lost so I got to the end and was surprised to get the win by a good margin. Some luck definitely played it's part in this race. It was an incredible experience riding in the desert and I loved every minute of it. A huge thanks to Kyle for putting up with me for a week!

(WBNG Binghamton) New York Governor Andrew M. Cuomo on Monday announced the opening of the 2013 Women's Equality exhibit.
According to a news release from Cuomo's office:
The exhibit highlights the struggle for economic equality that women have faced since the 1820s to the 1980s. The Governor toured the exhibit with members of the New York State Women's Equality coalition. The display, located in the War Room, is part of an ongoing initiative to create museum quality exhibits for public viewing at the State Capitol.
"New York's women have always been trailblazers in the pursuit of equality and justice in our nation," said Governor Cuomo. "As the birth place of the women's rights movement in 1848, it is important that we continue that tradition by working toward achieving women's equality in all areas of our society. Through organizing efforts, governmental action or shattering glass ceilings in professions historically dominated by men, the women featured in this exhibit represent the very best of our State's tradition of national leadership in advancing equality and economic justice. I encourage all New Yorkers to visit this exhibit at the Capitol and share in the recognition of these extraordinary women."
The exhibit outlines the challenges women workers have faced since the early days of the Industrial Revolution, through the Civil War, to the Depression and World War II, and ending in the 20th century. Events from each period, like the first garment workers strike in New York City, the licensing of the nation's first female doctor and the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, will give visitors a context for the evolution of struggle for workplace equality.
In addition to brief descriptions of each period, the exhibit will also feature biographies of some of the influential women who helped shape the fight for equality in their times. The biographies and descriptions will be complemented by a display of artifacts that pertain to the exhibit's theme.
Women featured in the exhibit:
•Lavinia Wright, co-leader of the first garment workers' strike
•Louise Mitchell, co-leader of the first garment workers' strike
•Jane Hunt, Seneca Falls Convention organizer
•Dr. Mary Edwards Walker, only woman to earn a Congressional Medal of Honor
•Belva Ann Lockwood, pioneering female attorney and political activist
•Rose Schneiderman, Triangle Shirtwaist Factory workers' advocate
•Belle Moskowitz, social reform activist and advisor to Governor Al Smith
•Frances Perkins, first female member of the U.S. Cabinet, served as Secretary of Labor under Presidents Roosevelt and Truman
•Eleanor Roosevelt, influential First Lady and Human Rights activist
•Pauline Newman, organizer of the women's labor movement in New York
•Kate Mullaney, founder of the Collar Laundry Union in Troy, New York
•Luisa Moreno, immigrant workers' rights advocate
•Mary McLeod Bethune, African American community rights activist
Sample of artifacts featured in the exhibit:
•Sewing machine from the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire
•ERA ratification propaganda
•Letter from Clara Barton
•Original copy of the 1848 Seneca Falls Declaration of Sentiments
•U.S. Navy WAVES uniform
•First women's property rights law in New York

SPRINGFIELD – After years of planning and anticipation, the city launched a $1.8 million project on Friday to renovate Camp STAR Angelina at Forest Park, serving youth with and without disabilities.
State Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs Richard Sullivan joined local and state officials, staff and families in praising the project during a groundbreaking ceremony at the camp. He and Mayor Domenic Sarno said the camp, when renovated, will be the first universally designed camp in the region to serve youth with disabilities.
The project will include a new, sloped entry pool and bathhouse, universal amphitheater, and accessible trail to Porter Lake.
The project includes local, state and private funding including a $1.2 million state grant announced in December.
Megan Pelletier, 20, who was a camper last year, and hopes to work at the camp this year, said she is excited to see the project proceed and "wants to thank everyone who made it possible."
"I'm excited to see everything new (coming) like the pool," Pelletier said. "I want to see how the little children, how their faces are going to react to everything new here."
The camp is awesome, said Pelletier, a resident of Springfield.
"It's astounding what they are going to do," said Dee Pelletier, Megan's mother. "I think it's really important because you have to always accommodate people with disabilities as well as people without so they can both work together and have fun."
"We had pitched this as a legacy project and Governor Patrick and Secretary Sullivan saw that," Sarno said. "This will be state-of-the art, first in Western Massachusetts and one of the few in New England."
Carol Aubin said she and her husband Jim have been very active in the camp for more than 35 years, dating back to when their late son was camper.
"I can't wait to see it get done," Aubin said.
Sullivan said Patrick is committed to providing opportunities and making investments in the most urban communities.
The camp grant and other projects are "an investment in the quality of life of the city of Springfield and the greater Springfield region, but more importantly, is an investment in the families and the children, and the next generation of the people that are going to live and call Springfield home," Sullivan said.
Brian Santaniello, chairman of the Park Commission, said he anticipates a "beautiful" transformation.
"What a beautiful thing this will be for the youth of Springfield," Santaniello said.
Others taking part in the ceremony included state Reps. Benjamin Swan and Angelo Puppolo, and City Councilors Kateri Walsh and Clodovaldo Concepcion.
The project is hoped to be completed by the end of September, officials said.
Torphy Construction of Peterborough, N.H., has been hired for the pool and bathhouse, costing approximately $1.1 million, and beginning now, officials said.
Patrick Sullivan, parks director, said the city provided $300,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant funds for the project, and private donations from residents and private companies and organizations totaled approximately $300,000.

LONG BRANCH – In the mid 1970's, West End was a bohemian-like community filled with carefree souls who lounged at the beach and hung out at the pier, and where Bruce Springsteen penned "Born to Run."
"Everyone knew Bruce back then. He already had two albums out by then, and he would spend the days just working on his music or hanging out around town, because it was a really unique place to be at that time," said Susan McLaughlin, who lived across the street from the small West End Court cottage "The Boss" rented during 1974-75.
While living in that five-room house, Springsteen wrote music for the groundbreaking album that, in addition to its title track, features timeless anthems such as "Jungleland" and "Thunder Road."
Nearly 40 years later, McLaughlin is a Keller Williams real estate agent charged with selling the cottage – a 828-square-foot home with two bedrooms, one bathroom and a fenced-in yard.
"The layout is the same inside as it was when Bruce lived there," McLaughlin said. "It has a sitting room, a galley kitchen, a living room with sliding-glass doors that open to a patio and very high ceilings that make it feel much bigger that it looks from the outside."
And while Hurricane Sandy significantly damaged many other Long Branch homes, McLaughlin said this cottage remained untouched.
"The best part about the house itself is that it is only about 80 steps from the beach path. But it's also in a section of West End that is a higher elevation, so it received no flood damage in the storm," she said. "And it's also in a C-3 commercial zone, so the possibilities for this property are virtually limitless."
And even though the house has only been on the market for less than a week – at an asking price of $349,900 – McLaughlin said an international crop of interested buyers already has her phone ringing off the hook.
"I've only had like four hours of sleep, but it is exciting. It just reflects the strong feelings that everyone still has for Bruce and the E Street Band," said McLaughlin, adding a lot of the interest in the house has come from within the music industry. "One gentleman even mentioned the possibility of turning it into kind of a retreat for songwriters."
The house was last purchased by a group of three people in 2009, McLaughlin said, and is only being sold now because the one owner who lives in the house is getting married.
"So there's no pressure to sell. The two other owners actually love the house and are willing to stay on as owners, if someone just wanted to purchase the one share," she said.
And then there are the phone calls McLaughlin has received from people who have no interest in buying the house, but rather just want to share their memories of the when Bruce called it home.
"It's great to hear the stories," she said. "It was a very exciting time here and this has people remembering that."

Cold, Flu, & Cough Health Center
Zinc May Slightly Help Adults With Colds, Not Kids
May 7, 2012 -- Adults who take zinc supplements at the first sign of a cold may shave almost two days off of their sniffling, sneezing, and coughing, a new review study suggests.
That said, the supplements didn't lessen the severity of these symptoms in adults, and had no effects on children, who can catch as many as eight to 10 colds per year. Zinc lozenges or liquids also have their share of side effects, including bad taste and nausea.
"Although oral zinc can impact the duration of [the] common cold in adults, there is not enough evidence to recommend its use in children, and only a weak rationale for its use in adults," says researcher Michelle Science, MD. She is an infectious disease specialist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Exactly how zinc shortens the duration of the common cold is unknown, but it may stop the virus from replicating. The new review included 17 studies comprising a total of 2,121 participants between 1 and 65 years old. Overall, zinc did shorten the duration of the common cold, but only in adults. The higher doses worked better than lower doses.
The findings appear in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
It is possible that the review did not contain enough studies of children and/or cold symptom severity to draw a firm conclusion.
This is not the final word on zinc. "We need further research and high-quality trials to optimize and maximize the daily doses," Science says.
Not All Zinc Supplements Are Created Equally
As an internist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, Robert Graham, MD, is often asked if anything can be done to shorten the duration of a cold and/or lessen the severity of its symptoms.
And in many cases, zinc supplements can fit this bill.
"Choose a quality zinc product with at least a couple of seals of approvals, including the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) seal of approval," he says. This is a way to make sure that the product contains what is stated on its label.
There are still many questions about which form and dose of zinc is best and for whom. "These are the questions we need to answer next," he says.

|Trilogy, Trilogy Fatface
The printed ephemera of the early to mid-nineteenth century is visually rich and mixes together a range of diverse type styles. In an article on 'Type mixtures' [Typography 3, Shenval Press, 1937], Jan Tschichold advocates the mixing of type styles as a means of enhancing typographic layout. I could see parallels with the printed ephemera of 100 years earlier, but now through the skilled eyes of Tschichold as a modernist. The early nineteenth century saw the emergence of the Fatface, Egyptian and Sans serif type styles. These three styles formed the base of the Trilogy type designs and allow me to explore what a trilogy in type could mean.
Influenced by much of the printed ephemera I had been looking at and by Tschichold's own type mixing I began, not by working on an accompanying Fatface, but an English Roundhand script. Over the following year I tried to make the script work, but never felt fully comfortable with the much steeper angle of the script compared to the sans and egyptian italics. As much as I was looking for contrast, the script just wasn't gelling with the other type styles. I bit the bullet and binned the script. However, the work towards the Roundhand fuelled development of a Fatface italic. This type has one weight (Heavy) and five widths (Normal, Wide, Expanded, ExtraExpanded and UltraExpanded). Aspects of the Roundhand capitals are incorporated within a set of accompanying swash caps - the high contrast and fine detailing of these introduce an ornamental flavour of Fraktur to the face. Both the Egyptian and the Fatface plug into the grid structure of the Sans, harmonising with various weights and widths.

'It's Raining Art' in Marysville April 26
MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Arts Council's third annual "It's Raining Art" event is set to return to the former Dunn Lumber building, at 1410 Grove St. in Marysville, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 26.
Marysville Arts Coalition Chair Beckye Randall promised that public art show and sale would feature displays by 19 local artists, as well as live music, hands-on creative activities and even opportunities to sample craft wine and spirits.
"They'll all be juried entries," Randall said of the event's artists this year. "There are lots of great crafters and craft shows already in Marysville, but this show will focus more on art."
The artwork on display and available to purchase is expected to include paintings and hanging art, jewelry and decorative items made of fused glass, wood crafts, hand-painted silk scarves and fabric art, photography, decorative gourds and more, with works by students from the Marysville Getchell and Marysville-Pilchuck high schools among those on display.
For taste tickets costing $2 each, guests can also sample craft wine from Willis Hall Winery, and Dark Moon Distillery's artisan vodka and rum, along with hand-pressed cider, before purchasing a bottle or two of their favorite beverages for at-home consumption.
"It's nice to be able to interact with other groups in the community, and develop a synergy with them," Randall said.
There is no other admission fee for "It's Raining Art," whose appetizers, activities and live music performances, by Native American flautist Paul Nyenhuis and acoustic guitarist Michael Gotz on April 26, are all offered for free.
"Marysville benefits from having a bigger art presence," Randall said. "It sets us apart and unifies us as a community all at once."
Log onto the Marysville Arts Coalition's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/MarysvilleArts, or email Randall at email@example.com, for more information.

Jefferson Parish's new garbage trucks run on compressed natural gas, pick up cans with a mechanical arm and are operated by a single employee -- a driver who empties curbside bins without leaving the cab. Managed by contractor Progressive Waste Solutions of Louisiana, the new trucks are set to debut on Wednesday, according to a news release from the parish government administration.
Read more about how Jefferson is moving to automate garbage collection.
Residents might notice a change in the time that their garbage is picked up, as collection routes will vary. Collection days will stay the same. They also will notice that the new blue trucks look different, and work very differently as well.
The trucks are an advantage for the employees who pick up garbage, as they no longer need to work behind the trucks in traffic or lift heavy loads, according to the release.
How the trucks work
The fully automated trucks will be put to work only in those neighborhoods where few cars are parked on the street and where roads are wide enough to allow the truck to pass.
To pick up garbage, the driver sits along the right side of the truck, where he or she operates a mechanism that reaches out for garbage carts, grabs them, empties them into a receptacle at the front of the truck and returns the carts to their spots. The truck travels alongside one side of a street before tackling the other. When the truck's front receptacle is full, the driver will operate a mechanism that lifts it to empty into the body of the truck.
The driver need only jog out of the truck to pick up any waste that is not placed in the new 96-gallon garbage carts, which are being distributed to residents and small business owners through Sept. 15.
Collection times may vary
According to the news release, collection times might change because the new trucks run up a single side of the street rather than sweep up both sides simultaneously. "Collection times on different sides of the same street may be several hours apart," the news release reads.
. . . . . . .
For more information, call Jefferson Environmental Affairs Director Marnie Winter at 504.731.4612.

Junior Andrew Thorud delivered an RBI double and classmate Cameron Kemper knocked in another run with a single, but Southridge rallied for four runs in the fourth inning Friday in an eventual 7-2 win over the Vikings in Forest Grove.
The game's most impressive play was a leaping catch by senior Trevor Schmidtke in left field that Forest Grove turned into a 7-6-4 double play to end the top of the first inning.
The Vikings finished their nonleague schedule 5-4 and will open Pacific Conference action Tuesday at Hare Field against the Hillsboro Spartans.
