lthough pinto beans remain a standby in the Big Horn Basin, growers are trying other varieties, such as black beans. Mike Moore, manager of the University of Wyoming Seed Certification Service, told more than 125 people attending the UW Powell Research and Extension Center field day that university personnel are developing information from several years of dry bean research at the research center. "This trial couldn't happen without the research center," Moore said. "It's not Mike Moore and seed certification alone." Moore has been testing several varieties of beans, including pinto, navy and black beans. Pinto beans have been a mainstay on the Powell flat. Moore said research continues on emerging varieties, although Othello, a longtime favorite, continues to be a contender. In 2010, Othellos in test plots matured an average of 96 days after planting, which contributes to their popularity with growers who also have to harvest sugar beets and barley, Moore said. In the cool, wet summer of 2009, however, those Othellos took an average of 107 days to mature, which illustrates "what a summer that one was." Andrew Kniss, meanwhile, is using a separate research plot of about 3 acres to determine best methods of incorporating chemicals in fields. Kniss, an assistant professor in the UW Department of Plant Sciences in Laramie, said he initiated the study to help bean growers determine how to apply
herbicides. He and his assistants added nightshade to the test plots to see how the locally common weed responded to chemical applications. "Oddly enough, not very much of that's coming up," Kniss said, considering it's "the weed that
we're most interested in." Other weeds are naturally occurring in the plot, he said. Kniss said in the study's first year, it looks as if using a disk is most effective, but he hopes to repeat it next year to compile more data.

Wyoming ag real estate value edges up The average value of farm and ranch real estate in Wyoming has increased slightly. The average value of farm and ranch land is $540 per acre, up 3.8 percent from $520 per acre a year ago, according to Steven Gunn with the Wyoming field office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agriculture Statistics Survey. Agricultural real estate values include farm and ranch land and buildings. Farm real estate values in Wyoming have risen 10 percent, or $50 per acre since 2007. Average value per acre was the second lowest in the nation (excluding Alaska and Hawaii) with New Mexico the lowest at $500 per acre. Cropland value increased 6.1 percent, from $1,197 per acre

in 2010 to $1,270 this year. Irrigated cropland averaged $2,050 per acre and dryland cropland was valued at $750 per acre. The value of pasture land averaged $430 per acre, up 4.9 percent from the previous year. Across the United States, farm real estate value, a measurement of the value of all land and buildings on farms, averaged $2,350 per acre this year, up 6.8 percent from 2010. Regional changes in the average value of farm real estate ranged from a 15.9 percent increase in the Corn Belt region to a 2 percent decline in the Southeast region. The highest farm real estate values remained in the Northeast region at $4,690 per acre. The Mountain region had the lowest farm real estate

In the Northern Plains and Corn Belt regions, the average cropland value increased 17.2 and 16.0 percent, respectively, from the previous year. However, in the Northeast and Southeast regions, cropland values decreased by 1.3 percent and 1.1 percent, respectively. The United States pasture value increased to $1,100 per acre or 1.9 percent above 2010. The Southeast region had the largest percentage decrease in pasture value, 8.4 percent below 2010. The Northern Plains and Corn Belt regions had the highest percentage increase, both at 6.6 percent above 2010.

Raising goats proves successful, rewarding Moore sisters say they only regret not doing it sooner By ILENE OLSON Tribune News Editor
helby and Megan Moore love having kids around the house and yard. It's something they look forward to all winter. Right now, they have six of the four-legged variety romping playfully about. The Moore sisters began raising Boer goats nearly five years ago after deciding not to continue breeding miniature horses. "We wanted a change," Shelby said. "We saw Boer goats at the Frannie Tack Shop's annual sale and decided to give them a try." They bought their first three goats — Holly, Clover and Iris — and their new adventure began. Boer goats are considered meat goats, and are entirely different than dainty dairy goats. Their bones are heavier, and they have a stocky build. Adult does grow to about 200 pounds, with bucks reaching about 300 pounds. Goat meat is a popular food in most other countries, particularly in Asia, India and Mexico, Shelby said. "The Untied States is virtually the only country where goats are not eaten," Shelby said. "In the United States, we're very much about tradition in what we eat. We've always eaten beef and chicken, but it takes a while to get used to something new." Even so, it's starting to catch on here as well. A truck in Billings takes goats to a market in Denver, and now and then, you'll hear about a whole goat roasted in a barbecue pit, she said. Boer goats also are used to help control weeds. While dairy

goats will eat a mixture of weeds and grass, Boer goats will pass over grass to dine on weeds that, to them, are succulent. Some people lease their Boer goats out to help control weeds in pastures and creek beds or other places where mowing is impractical and spraying herbicide is undesirable. The Moore sisters are working to promote the boer goat industry in the Big Horn Basin, and most of the goats they raise go to 4-H or FFA kids who are starting herds of their own. And that's just fine with Shelby and Megan, who, while promoting the industry, aren't anxious to see goats they raise end up in a freezer. Goats they haven't raised — now, that's another story. The sisters know each of their goats and their personalties. "Clover, one of the original three does, is the one who loves people more than any other animal," Megan said. "She'd prefer there were no other goats around." Poppy can be standoffish; she only wants company when it suits her. Poppy's mother, Iris, was one of the original three does. "We called Iris the destroyer, but she was one of the sweetest, best personality does on the place," Megan said. Holly, the third of the original three, assumes the role of guard-dog goat. She is friendly with her owners, but standoffish with others. The goat even challenges Shelby sometimes when she has been away from home for a few days. The sisters' herd has grown to 16 animals now — five does, one buck, six kids and four weanlings (goats generally are weaned when they're between 2 and 3 months). Shelby and Megan know each one and can tell you their breeding history, their likes and dislikes and their personality quirks. "We love the goats," Megan said.

DuCt tape By JUDy KILLEN Tribune Staff Writer
armers and ranchers concerned about arthritis can take steps to limit their chances of developing the condition, according to a University of Wyoming extension agent. Randy Weigel, program director of Wyoming AgraBililty, told more than 125 people attending the annual field day at the University of Wyoming Powell Research and Extension Center that osteoarthritis is a common condition limiting the activities of people who work on farms and ranches. "The bad news is, you can't cure arthritis," he said, "but
you can manage it. If you're younger, you can prevent it." Weigel mentioned several assistive technologies that farmers can make or buy. The first is already familiar to anyone working in agriculture, he said — duct tape. Invented during World War II to cover and protect ammunition boxes, the ubiquitous tape can be used to cover the handle of a hammer — "It gives you some ease. It gives you some protection." Even an Ace bandage will work, he said. It helps soften the blow from the repetitive motion. Hammers with magnets help if trying to hold a nail causes trouble, Weigel said.
ProFeSSioNal WaSte DiSPoSal
Younger farmers, in their 20s or 30s, can limit their chances of developing arthritis by finding ways to ease the risk factors that are part and parcel of baling hay, building and repairing fences and using vibrating machinery, Weigel said. And for youngsters, it might be as simple as abandoning the 5-gallon bucket. That doesn't mean an end to farm chores, Weigel said — but they could use two smaller buckets, one in each hand. The heavier, single 5-gallon bucket "creates tear and pressure on the shoulder," where using two smaller buckets equalizes the weight across both shoulders.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture invites farmers to apply for Value-Added Producer Grants (VAPG). Total funding of $37 million available for new value-added projects. Project proposals are due by Aug. 29. "We have fought hard for VAPG and are delighted the notice of funding availability is out and the program is once again open for business," said Ferd Hoefner, policy director of the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition. "Valueadded grants are an important opportunity for entrepreneurially inclined small and midsized family farms to expand markets and increase farm income. The resulting projects also help meet consumer demand for quality food products and increase rural jobs." VAPG is a competitive program that awards grants to producers to help them develop farm-related businesses that add value to basic agricultural products through branding, processing, product differentiation, labeling and certification and marketing. VAPG includes projects that market inherently value-added production, such as organic crops, grass-fed livestock, and locally produced and marketed food products. VAPG also funds regional food supply networks that benefit
the small and mid-sized farms by incorporating the producer into the larger farm-to-plate value chains. "Congress made a good choice in targeting VAPG funds to small and medium sized family farms as well as to beginning and socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers," noted Hoefner. "Projects involving these target groups receive extra ranking points during the grant evaluation process. In addition, 10 percent of program funding is reserved for local and regional food supply networks that link farmers with other processors and distributors that market value-added products in a manner that improves small and medium-sized farm profitability. Ten percent is also reserved for projects primarily benefitting beginning and socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers." The VAPG program was initiated by Congress as part of the Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 and extended and revised as part of the 2002 and 2008 Farm Bill. Grants may be used to develop business plans and feasibility studies (including marketing plans) needed to establish viable marketing opportunities for value-added products or
for working capital to operate a value-added business venture or alliance. "One of the stumbling blocks of late to farmers and groups of farmers seeking VAPG funding is the one-for-one matching grant requirement," said Hoefner. "In a major win for farmers that NSAC fought for, farmers may now provide up to half the match requirement through 'sweat equity' — the farmers' time in developing or implementing the project. This is an important new development that should make it easier for farmers to apply for program funding." The agency estimates it will make about 250 awards, which will be announced by the end of November. Applicants may submit a planning grant (up to $100,000 each) or a working capital proposal (up to $300,000 each). The agency is estimating, based on previous experience, the average size grant award will be $116,000. Applicants may propose any time frame for the project provided it does not exceed three years. The complete application package will be available from the USDA Rural Development site at http://www.rurdev.usda. gov/BCP_VAPG_Grants.html.

Harvest under way for gluten-free oats BY TESSA SCHWEIGERT Tribune Managing Editor
homegrown business providing gluten-free oats is preparing for a bountiful harvest this year as it continues to serve an international market. This year's crop "looks really good," said Seaton Smith, owner of Gluten Free Oats. "It was just the perfect year. Everything was planted in time, and the cool weather and moisture really helped us." Thousands of pounds of oats harvested from local fields will be processed in a brand-new Gluten Free Oats facility currently under construction in Powell. From there, the oats will be shipped across the United States and to the United Kingdom, Australia and other international markets. Gluten Free Oats provides another healthy food option for people with celiac disease, who are unable to eat grains such as wheat, rye and barley. What makes oats gluten free? While oats do not contain gluten naturally, they are often contaminated by wheat, barley or rye in the process of harvesting, transporting or milling. Painstaking care is taken to avoid cross-contamination in all stages — from growing, harvesting and transporting to processing and packaging. Even the ground to be planted has to meet quality assurances. Fields must not have grown gluten products for a defined period of time, and fields around a gluten-free oat crop cannot contain gluten products. When Gluten Free Oats first started contracting acreage in 2005, only seven acres of glutenfree oats were grown in the Powell Valley. The next year, it increased to 61. The 2011 harvest is expected to yield more than 300 acres of oats. As the gluten-free market grows, the Smith family has strived to keep the business operations rooted in Powell, where it began in 2004 as an FFA project by Smith's son, Forrest. A new 2,880-square-foot building will allow the business to clean, roll and package glutenfree oats in east Powell. It will be the only oat mill in the United States using the steamed, stabilized process for gluten-free oats. There are only four mills of its kind in the world, Smith said. Three grain bins at the site will be able to hold 35,000 bushels of oats for storage. While the grain bins will be filling with gluten-free oats as the harvest continues, the processing facility won't be up and running until later this year. "We're a little behind, but
FDA takes new look at what 'gluten free' means The Food and Drug Administration is taking a new look at how to label foods "gluten free." The agency proposed standards in 2007 for labeling foods that don't have the cereal protein but they were never finalized. Gluten is found in wheat, rye and barley and can inflame the small intestine in people who have celiac disease. The FDA ruling said there had to be less than 20 parts per million of foreign seed for food to be considered gluten free. A Powell company is doing better than that standard with its locally-grown oats, which are certified gluten free. Seaton Smith, owner of Gluten Free Oats, said the company's goal is for less than 10 parts per million of foreign seed. Typically, they meet their fewer than 10 parts per million goal, he said. For gluten to be completely non detectable, food would have fewer than 3 parts per million of gluten. To visualize that quanity, Smith said to imagine a mile-high stack of pennies. There would be fewer than three dimes in the mile-high stack of pennies for it to be 3 parts per million. The FDA said earlier this month that it will seek new comments on its gluten-free standards, which set a minimum amount of gluten that a product can contain to be labeled "gluten free." Amounts of gluten in "gluten free" food items now on store shelves can vary widely. FDA estimates about 1 percent of the U.S. population has celiac disease. Deputy commissioner for foods Michael Taylor said the agency wants updated input on the standards from consumers. (The Associated Press contributed to this report.)
we're OK. The weather did affect (construction)," Smith said. Funding recommended by the Wyoming Business Council and approved by the State Loans and Investment Board helped Gluten Free Oats build the new facility, and the business will pay back the entire sum of grant money — up to $758,701. With revenue recaptured from Gluten Free Oats' payments, the city of Powell will place 75 percent in a revolving loan fund and 25 percent for special community projects, such as necessary infrastructure, park development and projects identified by community interest groups. "It's all staying here. It will just keep multiplying then," Smith said. "The city will end up with a nice nest egg to help someone else out in the future." The city will lease the processing facility to Gluten Free Oats at $1,988 per month for the first five years and $1,994 per month for the next 30 years. "It's going back to the community. We've worked really hard to put everything we can back into the city," Smith said. Smith also noted that local contractors were involved in the building process. Local companies used include: Jim's Building Service (general contractor), Heart Mountain Construction (grain bins), Reiter Construction (dirt), Steve's Electric (electricity), Production Machine (welding), Inberg-Miller Engineers (civil engineering) and First Bank of Wyoming (financing). Once the new facility is up and running, the whole process will take place in Powell. "It will go in as raw seed and come out as oatmeal on the other side," Smith said.
Construction progressing on new processing facility
Construction is continuing on a processing facility for Gluten Free Oats in Powell. Three grain bins are ready to store the certified gluten-free oats, which are grown in local fields. The mill is slated to be completed by the end of this year. Through paying back state grants to the city of Powell, Gluten Free Oats will provide up to $750,000 for future economic development projects. tribune photo by tessa schweigert

proper watering. Ultimately, the information provided by the UW center is designed to help growers who are interested in extending the growing season, giving them an opportunity to grow a greater variety of crops and produce vegetables from early spring until late in the fall. Prchal said some producers in Goshen County picked tomatoes into November and December last year using the tunnels.
tunnels at the UW center were built in three different sizes and designs to test the differences among them. During a field day at the research center in July, local residents heard several presentations about the tunnels being demonstrated. Violett spoke about maintaining the soil and the use of compost and manure, and irrigation specialist Axel Garcia discussed the differences among the three tunnels in the project as well as about

The three high tunnels, sometimes called hoop houses, are passive solar structures that require no electricity, heat or mechanical ventilation, although those at the center were provided with constant drip irrigation. The plastic covering protects plants from wind and frost and provides evenly diffused sunlight throughout the structure. The plastic resists deterioration by the sun, and should last five to six years. The

n experiment in extending the growing season for gardeners is in its second summer at the University of Wyoming Powell Research and Extension Center, and researchers at the center are hopeful they can be harvesting well into the fall months. Squash, tomatoes, cucumbers and other hot-weather crops are growing in three high tunnels constructed during a workshop at the research center in March 2010. The crops were planted after an early crop of leafy plants such as lettuce, spinach and Swiss chard were harvested. When the current plants are finished sometime in September, they will be replaced by cool-weather crops, broccoli, beets and other root crops. So far the high tunnels, low-cost alternatives to greenhouses built on frames of wood and PVC pipe and covered with a special plastic sheeting are performing well. "We've had quite a bit of vegetative growth and quite a bit of production," said Bob Prchal of the Park County Master Gardeners. The growing season was slow to start last spring due to cool wet weather that kept the soil cool, according to Prchal. "Our planned cool season crops were delayed," Prchal said. "Even with the tunnels, the soil temperatures stayed low, and the little plants just sat there, but when the soil warmed to 40 degrees and up, they started to grow." Still, the late start delayed the schedule, and the planting of the mid-season crops was about 10 days later than planned. The crops for the hot summer months were planted both indoors and outdoors to see which would produce the most fruit, and Randy Violett, research assistant at the UW center, said they are still collecting data for that experiment. "Right now, it looks like the outside is probably a little bit further along," Violett said, "but the inside plants will be catching up, especially the tomatoes. There are a lot of tomatoes." He doesn't know why the outside plants are ahead, but it might be because they are more readily pollinated in the outdoors. Violett said data on the early season planting are still being

Sunflowers are in bloom across the Powell Flat, with harvest expected later in the fall. Local growers have produced high-quality seeds destined mostly for Europe, where consumers eat them one by one and favor the larger, longer seeds produced here. Seeds that don't meet company standards for snacks in the shell can be used hulled for salad bars or in bird seed, according to a Dahlgren and Co. representative who visited Powell earlier this year. tribune photo by Judy Killen

ild-mannered alpacas do well in Wyoming because the climate is similar to the Andes, and producers might do well raising them. A healthy alpaca costs about $75 per year to board, eating about one ton of grass annually, but an ounce of alpaca fleece fetches $6, said Jan Sapp, of Arrowhead Alpacas Inc., of Powell. "We call it 'fleece,'" Jan said, to differentiate the product from sheep's wool. The Sapps have been raising alpacas southeast of Powell since 2006, and Jan said she can recall requiring the veterinarian only twice. One was a mother having a difficult birth and the other occurred when some of their animals needed treatment for diarrhea following a Denver show.

"We've never had an intrusion," Ed said. Water, grass and protection from the wind and rain if the alpacas choose to use it are needed. "A three-sided shelter with a porch is lovely," Jan said. The Sapps sell saddle blankets, boot insoles, yarn, gloves, hats, headbands and other alpaca fleece products. This is the second year the Sapps have employed youthful summer help. During the interview, while at the Park County Fair, a boy stops by, checking out the alpacas with the experienced eye of a stockgrower. He asks if the Sapps rent alpaca for show. A lot of growers will rent their alpacas for 4-H projects, Jan said. The Sapps said they were judging 4-H alpacas at the Washakie County Fair in August. "I'm thrilled," Jan said, but that is the only alpaca 4-H judging she knows of. The Sapps would enjoy participating in local alpaca-4-H. "We'd be tickled to death to get involved in 4-H," Jan said. It is a warm day, but an awning over the alpacas' pen keeps the animals cool as they nibble the grass or a bale of hay. They hum from time to time and their ears prickle, tuning in the sounds of the fair. There is a growing market for alpaca fleece. "It's getting better and better," Jan said. Jan likes her herd. "They're just sweet-natured creatures," she said.

Food prices could level off; surplus of 940 million bushels estimated ST. LOUIS (AP) — Food prices could level off at the end of the year because farmers are seeing less demand for corn and are expecting a big crop. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said last week that farmers expect 940 million bushels to be left over when the harvest begins this fall. That's up from last month's estimate of 880 million bushels. Record-high corn prices forced many ranchers to seek cheaper alternatives for feeding their livestock, such as wheat. The drop in demand, combined with the big corn crop, is likely to force prices down. Corn is used in everything from beef to cereal to soft drinks. It typically takes six
months for a change in corn prices to affect products on supermarket shelves. For all of 2011, the USDA predicts food prices will rise 3 percent to 4 percent. Worries over the size of the corn surplus pushed corn prices sharply higher this year. They reached a record price of $7.99 a bushel in early June. Hoping to capitalize on that high price, farmers planted the second-largest corn crop since World War II. But less demand and a huge harvest in August could lead to greater corn surpluses, which would ultimately slow food inflation. The key factor that drove corn prices higher was a historically low surplus level. Global demand for corn, soybeans and
wheat has outstripped production for the last 10 years, drawing down surplus levels that are key to a stable food supply. Earlier this year, the USDA estimated that there would be fewer than 700 million bushels of corn left over at the end of this year. That is less than enough to satisfy demand for 20 days. A 30-day supply is the level considered healthy by most investors. A surplus of 940 million bushels is enough to satisfy demand for 27 days. While not ideal, that level should calm worries of an imminent global food shortage. When surpluses get as low as they are now, even relatively small supply shocks can send crop prices sharply higher on
global commodities markets. Traders have been nervously watching every USDA crop report this summer, looking for any sign that the crop harvested this fall will be smaller than expected. Those worries have been stoked by a hot summer. Overnight temperatures in key corn states like Iowa and Illinois were stubbornly high through July. That can stunt corn plants at a crucial phase — when they pollinate and set their kernels. But it appears that high production will overcome demand this year. The latest USDA estimate didn't forecast that the hot weather will significantly cut the size of this year's harvest, which was projected to be 12.45 billion bushels.
Northern Rockies Ranch Practicum Registration deadline extended Aug. 19 The Northern Rockies Ranch Practicum School based at Northwest College is gearing up for its first class. The program is modeled after the highly successful High Plains Ranch Practicum in southeast Wyoming, said Barton Stam, University of Wyoming Cooperative Extension Service educator based in Hot Springs County. The practicum is an in-depth ranch management school hosted jointly by Northwest College and the University of Wyoming Cooperative Extension Service. The curriculum has been adapt-
ed for ranches with a public lands component. The application deadline was extended to Friday, Aug. 19, said Stam. For more about the Northern Rockies Ranch Practicum topics and structure, see www.ranchpracticum.com. The eight-day, four-session practicum begins in August and concludes in December. Sessions are primarily at the Northwest College campus, said Stam. The hands-on educational program is designed to give participants the skills and application of management tools needed to be successful in to-
day's complex ranching industry, said Dallas Mount, UW CES educator, an instructor in the program. The course will focus on providing ranchers tools to understand and integrate four areas of ranch management: range and forage resources, integrating nutrition and reproduction, cost of production analysis and family working relationships. "Ranchers able to integrate these four areas into decision making will find they can use a systems approach to improve the sustainability of the ranch operation," said Aaron Berger, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension educator and also one
of the instructors. The practicum is limited to 25. A $600 fee for an individual or $900 for a pair covers materials, instructor costs and meals. Producer participants who complete course requirements will receive a 50-percent tuition scholarship reducing the cost of the class by half. The course is a borrower training course approved by the Farm Service Agency and can be taken for credit through Northwest College. For more information or to obtain an application, contact Stam or Vicki Nichols in the Hot Springs County extension office at 307-864-3421.

ith declining population and higher costs, this was a good year for local growers to nurture leaf cutter bees. Kim Decker, a Wyoming Department of Agriculture inspector who spends the winter using X-ray technology to check leaf cutter bees for diseases and other problems, said quite a few leaf cutter bees were sold to Idaho in 2009. By 2010, it was a "totally different story" as growers encountered shortages of the bees used to pollinate crops such as alfalfa. Part of the shortage was high demand in Canada, where farmers planted more acres of hybrid canola, which also depends on leaf cutter bees for pollination. "There's probably another year, maybe more, of a shortage of bees coming into Wyoming from Canada," Decker said. With supply too short for demand, "prices for bees this spring were extremely high," said Decker, surpassing $100 per gallon. Because of that, local growers "are taking better care of bees." Many local growers incubate their bee larvae over the winter and produce a new crop of bees in the spring.

BAKU, July 22 (Itar-Tass) - Azerbaijan's trade with Russia reached 1.167 billion U.S. dollars in January-May 2013, or was up by 38.4 percent as compared with the same period last year, Azerbaijan's State Statistics Committee said on Monday, citing the country's State Customs Committee.
Azerbaijan's imports from Russia stood at 623.4 million U.S. dollars, while exports were estimated at 543.4 million U.S. dollars.
Azerbaijan's overall foreign trade in January-May 2013 grew by 9.7 percent as compared with the same period last year to reach 14.725 billion U.S. dollars. Countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) account for 11.4 percent, or 1.675 billion U.S. dollars, of the overall foreign trade.
Azerbaijan's main exports include mineral resources, foodstuffs and agricultural produce. Its imports are primarily made up of machines and mechanisms, electrical equipment, transport vehicles and chemical products.

Album Release
Pistol Star
SuperGiant's oracular third creation
On Saturday, July 9, SuperGiant releases its third (mystical, heavy, bitchin') album Pistol Star, recorded over the past two years with Sid Garcia at Sight 16 Studio. The Alibi was previously unable to cover SuperGiant happenings given the fact that half of the band was employed by the paper. That no longer being the case, below, in our first article on the band, vocalist Joel Rogers discusses equipment, symbolism and the mysteries of existence.
Scene and Heard
Rock Around the Clock
The Alibi Group Hug's Rockabilly Blowout went down Saturday, July 2, at the Launchpad. Acts included Jakob Insane, The Hi-Lo Tones, Cowboys and Indian and The .357s. Pompadours and faux orchids decked the night, with patrons trickling in from the Hot Rod Hop—a burlesque show and movie screening at the KiMo and the vintage car show a few blocks east on Central. By the time Cowboys and Indian hit the stage, the place was packed wall-to-wall. The crowd was swingin' to rockabilly rhythms into the wee hours. Click below for some rockin' photos.
Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys
An interview with the big man himself
California-based Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys are rock and roll with elements of rockabilly, boogie woogie, Western swing, traditional country and fine vocal arrangements. The Rockabilly Hall of Fame members are touring in support of their latest release, Turntable Matinee. They'll make a long-awaited stop in New Mexico on Friday. The Alibi was able to catch up with Big Sandy via email.
Flyer on the Wall
Graphic Menageries
Bears and cheetahs and bears (with silly string or anemone tentacles coming out of their mouths, and it's on, like, a notebook), oh my! Three truly excellent local bands— The Glass Menageries, Sad Baby Wolf and Phantom Lake—play at Low Spirits (2823 Second Street NW) on Friday, July 8, at 9 p.m. Admission to the 21-and-over show, celebrating the birthday of one Gena, is $5. DJ Dame Diana will preside over interim sonic action. (Jessica Cassyle Carr)

EVENT HORIZON (Thursday, May 25)
Take Me to Drug Church
Drug Church • alternative, hardcore punk • The Coma Recovery • metal • Boyfriend Armada
Hey man, do you, like, wanna go to drug church? How's does Coma Recovery suit you after a night out and is there a Boyfriend Armada awaiting you in the stormy waters of the Rio Grande? Ask yourself these and other relevant questions on Thursday, May 25, when the fine folks over at ye olde Launchpad bring some of the bestest rocanrol music—made by some of the most archly named musical units in Satan's legion—to our humble, though not quite innocent little town by the river. Get ready to mosh until you melt down when the aforementioned Drug Church, a hardcore quintet from Nueva York, hit the stage. They'll be joined in brutal, sonic ritual by two of this town's loudest and louchest acts, the Coma Recovery and Boyfriend Armada, of course. It'll be fun and maybe you'll even have a bruise or broken bone to show off afterwards … you know, after your parents trundle off to bed and Snapchat is getting hot. This 13+ show is only $8; that should hopefully help the Dark Lord's recruitment efforts for the evening—it begins at 8pm, by the way.

Hello. I am someone who is interested in giving others a helpful hand in whatever is currently needed to help out: looking for work or a job, needing housework done, time out of the house, transportation, help meeting people, or what might be greatly needed to assist you or someone you know.
I am currently a volunteer at the Boys & Girls Club in the Salt Lake City area and have helped out for almost a year now. In order to volunteer or work at any of the clubs, I must have a criminal background check done, which for every club I have passed. I do not smoke or drink. I'm a drug-free individual.
My assisting you would be in free unexpensive ways that I could work out from both myself and your own. I am not asking for any income or payment of any kind unless offered or seriously needed to help you out. 2-3 people maximum.
How it can work is you can contact me by phone or email and I can get to know you and your situation or who else might be needing something. We can both safely come up with a plan on how to make what is needed happen. You can take your time to gain my trust if needed. Nothing is rushed.
To be more specific, I can help out with a ride to work or school programs, a drive around the local area to help you find work or jobs nearby, trips to places to get out of the house or social events and mainly whatever is needed to add a change to your routine that might turn into longer commitments.
I can be contacted at any time of the day or week, but not at any too early or too late hours. Again, I cannot help out everyone, so it must be specific to what I can do for you. I will be glad to help out any age type if you can gain trust in my service.
If you are interested, please feel free to contact me at my email by replying through craigslist. Text or call me at 1-801-875-1728. If I do not answer, you can leave a name for me to get back to you in a message. Any other information is entirely up to you. I will be glad to get started in helping you out. Thank you!

Nueces County Sheriff Jim Kaelin says that extortion could be at the root of the recent suicide of 319th District Court Judge Tom Greenwell.
Sheriff's Department investigators have been pouring over the late judge's personal, financial, phone and online records, trying to piece together what may have caused Greenwell to end his life.
Greenwell was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head in his chambers at the Nueces County Courthouse on Monday.
According to Sheriff Kaelin, it appears the extortion had been going on for some time. Financial records showed large withdrawals, leading one to believe that payoffs were being made.
Sheriff's Department detectives are trying to locate several persons of interest, one of whom is a man named Albert Fuentes, who lives at Greenwell's home. Fuentes was named in the judge's will as the sole executor.
Sources close to the investigation say that Fuentes was cooperating with authorities in the beginning, but now is refusing to speak with investigators.
Sheriff Kaelin reiterated Friday that "something extremely difficult must have been going on in the judge's personal life. So difficult that he felt suicide was his only option."
Sheriff Says Extortion Could Have Been a Factor in Judge's Suicide

Plasma S100β protein (PS100β) was described as a biological marker of white substance damage and brain ischemia. Studies of new neuroprotective approaches in patients with traumatic brain injury and subarachnoid aneurysmal hemorrhage would benefit from the development of such markers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the first 24 hours mean plasma PS100β for predicting outcome at ICU discharge after subarachnoid aneurysmal hemorrhage (SAH).
From August 2006 to August 2008, 100 patients (46 men and 54 women; mean age 52 ± 11 years) were admitted for SAH and treated by surgical clipping or coiling within 2 days after admission. SAPS II, World Federation of Neurological Surgeons (WFNS), Fisher and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) were scored at ICU discharge. Plasma S100β concentrations were assayed at admission (hours 0, 6 and 24) and daily up to day 12 (routine procedure). Statistical analysis relied on the mean first 24 hours PS100β and the main outcome criterion was the GOS score at discharge dichotomized as poor (GOS 1 to 3) or good (GOS 4 to 5).
Poor outcome was associated with high mean first 24 hours PS100β, high initial WFNS and Fisher scores in univariate analysis (P < 0.0001). The best cut-off for the mean first 24 hours S100β value was 0.15 μg/l (specificity 0.60, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.52 to 0.67; sensitivity 0.85, 95% CI 0.79 to 0.89; area under the curve 0.83, 95% CI 0.69 to 0.92; Figure Figure11).
The mean PS100β value assessed during the first 24 hours is a prognostic tool complementary to initial clinical evaluation in SAH patients.

It's safe to say that the case for Latin American food culture in the United States has been made and won. First-generation mom and pop shops and food trucks have given way to James Beard award winning chefs and destination restaurants. The food world is finally starting to reflect the incredible diversity you've always found in Latin kitchens — African, Asian, and Mediterranean fusions centuries in the making but always ahead of their time.
But one thing is getting there and another thing is staying. Fortunately some of the most talented food people working today are are doing their part to make sure cuisine from a Latino perspective finds new audiences. While their cultural roots run deep, there's no telling how high they'll go.
1. The Restaurateur: Chef José Mendín, Miami
A mainstay on the James Beard shortlist of best chefs in the South, José Mendín has received plenty of recognition for his work in the kitchen since opening Pubbelly, the popular Asian gastropub that turned a quiet corner of Miami Beach into the city's hottest restaurant row.
But that was only the beginning. Together with partners Andreas Schreiner and Sergio Navarro, he followed up with Pubbelly Sushi and Barceloneta among other successful collaborations. Most recently, the Pubbelly Boys as they've become known, set their sights on mainland Miami with the all-American PB Station steakhouse and Pawn Broker, a craft cocktail lounge. While it can be hard to see a common thread in their boundary blurring concepts, Medín makes one thing clear, "There's always something in each restaurant that says there's a Puerto Rican in the kitchen."
2. The Purveyor: Jorge Gaviria, Masienda, San Francisco
If you've enjoyed a truly memorable taco made with high quality, non-GMO Mexican corn in the last couple of years, it was likely sourced by Jorge Gaviria of Masienda. Born and raised in Miami to Cuban parents, he'd had limited experience with Mexican cuisine before he decided to seek out one of its most iconic ingredients.
RELATED: Why Top U.S. Chefs Seek This Young Latino's Quality Mexican Corn
"I really fell in love with Mexican food once I started to follow the corn which took me to Mexico for the first time in 2014," explained Gaviria. Masienda is now on pace to import over 1000 tons heirloom corn destined for taquerías and restaurants across the country. "Our mission is to purse exceptional flavor first and foremost while supporting biodiversity, sustainability, and small holder farmers."
3. The Personality: Alejandra Ramos, Food and Lifestyle Expert, NYC
Whether it's reminding everyone to Always Order Dessert on her popular blog, contributing articles and recipes across lifestyle platforms, or appearing as one of NBC's Today Show Tastemakers, Ramos is often everywhere at once.
Follow Ramos on social media and you'll find the only filters are on the pictures. Her candid comments as she goes lightly through the world on her terms are laugh-out loud funny. From food and cooking to lifestyle and fashion, Ramos multicultural background informs her point of view without limiting her appeal. "I don't think there needs to be a separation," explains Ramos. "I think it can all work together because that's how I grew up."
4. The Kid: Daniela Soto-Innes, Cosme, NYC
It's not surprising to see Soto-Innes on this list. As the winner of the James Beard Rising Star Chef award, it's her year. Only 5 years old when she started taking after-school cooking classes in her native Mexico, she participated in the professional culinary program offered by her high school when she moved to the States with her family. Internships in Texas, New York and abroad followed, eventually taking her back home to Mexico City to work with chef Enrique Olvera at the world-renowned Pujol.
When Olvera opened his ground breaking NYC restaurant Cosme in 2014, Soto-Inness was his chef de cuisine. Having just turned 26 years old, Soto-Innes is keenly aware of how much more there is to learn despite her early start. "I can know everything about my style of Mexican cooking but the minute I go to Peru, to China, I have no idea about anything," admits Soto-Innes. "That's what keeps me on my toes, and my feet on the ground. I'm just so happy to have this opportunity."
5. The Cowboy: Omar Flores, Casa Rubia, Dallas
While Flores broke new ground when he brought ingredient focused, seasonal Spanish tapas to West Dallas with Casa Rubia, restaurant kitchens have always been familiar territory. He grew up in the Mexican restaurants his family owned in El Paso and Chicago before graduating from the Culinary Institute of America.
Frequently cited as one of the best chefs in the southwest, this summer Flores opened Whistle Britches, a fast casual chicken-biscuits-beer spot with more to follow. While the restaurant world has changed since he was peeling tomatillos and chopping onions alongside his father, the total commitment the chef's life requires has stayed the same. "The best cooking is done when it really comes from your soul," says Flores.

Risks are far from out of the picture, but the market is choosing to hear what it wants.

Two months ago, drinking water in Lusaka turned brown due to molasses pollution. The Lusaka Water and Sewerage Company engaged the relevant authorities to carry out investigations, but while we are waiting for the outcome, fingers are being pointed at Zambia Sugar. Lusaka gets a large part of its drinking water via a pipeline from the Kafue River, with the water intake located in Kafue, downstream of Zambia Sugar's Nakambala Estates. Apparently, Zambia Sugar used to export its molasses – a by-product of sugar production – to South Africa for cattle feed, but that market has dried up. Instead, Zambia Sugar is allegedly using an old way of disposing of molasses by pouring it on its dirt roads (excellent for dust suppression). However, these days Zambia Sugar is producing a lot more molasses than in the old days, and some of the molasses therefore washes into the Kafue River.
