Me and my girlfriend wanted a downtown getaway over the weekend and to explore the city. The Millennium Knickerbocker was a great experience that we will never forget. We have stayed here twice on back to back weekends and have always gotten a wonderful breakfast from the restaurant in the lobby. The beds in the room are wonderful and comfy. The bathroom was gorgeous with a raindrop shower head. The main feature of the rooms that captivated us most was the view of Lake Michigan outside the window. I'm so happy we chose this hotel as our little downtown getaway mainstay and we will be making our third trip this weekend!!!read more

Filled the petrol on the other side before getting into Germany and then set off on better road surfaces but slow travel behind trucks ...

Hot Trisha Krishnan recently shot a movie in which she was seen having sex which six men. Trisha seemed to be enjoying a lot over there. At first she started by sucking each cock one by one, and licking their balls. Later she opened her legs and two men pushed their penis in her pussy. Her pussy started getting wet. Then the other two men started cum on her face, and the rest gave her an anal. In reality also Trisha loves being fucked by multiple men at once. She likes anal sex and also pleases herself by a dildo.

June Williamson Wants to Fix Suburbia
Of course, many of the reasons cited by Williamson for why the suburbs need retrofitting are environmental:
"The suburban lifestyle, on average, has three times the carbon footprint of the average urban resident. The old environmental notion was that it was better to go back to the land, live in the country. But a lot of the quantitative evidence suggests that living in an apartment in a city is less destructive of the larger environment."
Williamson also talks about adaptive reuse, the role of government, and the good aspects of traditional suburbs.

I spent the evening of the first day trying to set appointments for the next few days. It was short notice, but I was still productive. I had 12 meetings and landed a contract that more than paid for the event. The next year at Paris, I applied what I learned and had 44 pre-planned, high quality meetings." -- Frank Nichols, CEO of Silicon Forest Electronics

Intel's Barrett: PC industry has bottomed out
PENANG, Malaysia (Reuters) The world computer industry
is past the worst of the new-fangled technology cycle, but a full-blown rebound
depends on the global economy recovering, the president of Intel said on Thursday.
"The computer industry has bottomed out. That in itself
tells you that you're looking at when it's gonna take off," Craig Barrett told
The world's number one chipmaker derives 80% of its revenues
from supplying chips to computer makers and has been among the firms worst-hit
by the global slowdown.
In the past three quarters, the 33-year-old chipmaker has
had to warn of lower sales as demand for PCs slowed.
But Barrett said demand for personal computers was expected
to improve in the second half of this year on buying ahead of the new school
term and for the holiday season as well as by the introduction of the new Windows
"Any rebound in the third quarter and fourth quarter will
be more seasonal than fundamental," he said, adding that the sluggish global
economy has made consumption patterns difficult to predict.
"It's very difficult to predict right now exactly what
will happen. You have kind of a synchronous slowdown in all the economies, in
the U.S., Europe and Japan," he said.
Intel shares were traded via Instinet at $31.20 on Thursday
morning in Europe, compared to their $30.75 U.S. close.
"We're looking better after the Merrill Lynch comments
Wednesday and some remarks from the Intel chief executive," one dealer told
"The comment bit that caught the eye was his opinion that
the PC market has bottomed and that chipsales will pick up in the third and
fourth quarter," the dealer said.
Barrett's comments came in the wake of a Merrill Lynch
report which said the worst of the global semiconductor sector downturn was
over as it raised its opinion on the sector and upgraded its recommendations
on 12 chip stocks worldwide.
Growth through networking
Intel is looking to boost its presence in the networking
and communications market to tap an expected surge in demand for such products
in the coming years and reduce its reliance on the PC industry.
"When the economy recovers, I expect the network and communications
businesses to be able to grow between 30 to 50% a year," he said.
Intel announced on Thursday it was expanding its operations
in Malaysia to include the design of network processors and the assembly, testing
and packaging of Pentium 4 chips.
Intel has two plants in Malaysia, comprising its largest
testing and assembly plant in the northern state of Penang and a motherboard
manufacturing site in Kulim, in neighboring Kedah state.
It expects to hire an additional 100 engineers for its
network design center in Malaysia the company's first in Asia
at a time when it is planning to cut workforce by 5,000 employees by year-end,
Barrett said.
The chip giant's expansion plans in Malaysia is in contrast
to moves by some other technology-related companies to relocate to countries
with lower labor costs, like China.
"Right now I'm happy with the cost competitiveness here,"
Barrett said.
Intel's forecast of a slight rise in third quarter sales
from second quarter levels is "conservative", he said.
Intel last month reported a 24% slump in sales to $6.3
billion in the second quarter.
The Santa Clara, Calif.-based firm forecast sales of between
$6.2 billion and $6.8 billion in the third quarter.
With prices of chips continuing to decline, mainstream
prices for PCs using Intel's Pentium 4 microprocessors are expected to fall
to the $800 range within the "next few months", he said.
That will boost demand for Pentium 4 chips, giving Intel
an upperhand over rival Advanced Micro Devices which analysts say has had trouble
making chips at equal speeds profitably.
Intel's Pentium 4 chips are now running at speeds of up
to 1.8 gigahertz with a 2 gigahertz chip set to be launched later this month.
But the move to make Pentium 4-based PCs more affordable and boost its popularity
in the mass market will come at a price.
"The increase in Pentium 4 volumes will be at the expense
of Pentium 3 volumes," Barrett said.
"It's no secret that the Pentium 4 is more costly to produce.
But our success is predicated on introducing new technology to the marketplace
and not maximizing short-term profits on existing products."

There are fascinating shifts going on in higher education today, from MOOCs to the 'flipped classroom'. A lot of action. I think we are looking at another text-book "Innovator's Dilemma" scenario playing out:
The established players (traditional universities), aware of a new way of delivering their offer, but seeing that it doesn't meet the needs of their customer's as well as the old way. And the upstarts (udemy and others), the disruptors, applying and refining the use of the technology in niche markets, eventually perfecting it to the point that they can blow by the laggards, and leave them in the dust. Textbook!
Check out today's New York Times:
"Institutions of higher learning must move, as the historian Walter Russell Mead puts it, from a model of "time served" to a model of "stuff learned." Because increasingly the world does not care what you know. Everything is on Google. The world only cares, and will only pay for, what you can do with what you know." (from New York Times: The Professor's Big Stage)

Father's Day is coming up and you may be wondering which multi-tool will be perfect for your dad. Here's a quick comparison between two of our best-selling tools.
Both are made in USA, and backed by a Lifetime Warranty. Both tools are cast from high-quality steel and feature the best-of-class NUPLA handle – with the same overall dimensions. You can't go wrong with either for any jobs that require hacking, pulling, prying, pounding, demolition – or even self-defense.
The Trucker's Friend features a contoured nail puller and wire-twist, positioned at the top of the toolhead. In the Handy Rescue, this feature is replaced by a reinforced pry-bar.
The Handy Rescue Tool (a.k.a. HRT) also includes a gas-cutoff wrench. The pry-bar and wrench are key features for professional rescue workers, who are the key audience for the Handy Rescue.

Author has written 9 stories for Harry Potter, and Merlin.
Hey there! I'm Runey9 (formerly LoveAlwaysHopes) and this, shockingly, is my profile. I'm odd, nerdy, and just a tad spastic.
As a general rule, I prefer stories about family and friendship rather than ones focused on a specific pairing.
Fandoms I enjoy/write for (whether or not I publish): Harry Potter, Merlin (TV Series), and Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Pairings: Canon all the way, except for my one guilty pleasure pairing: Harry/Luna (I love H/G, but sometimes...). I don't read slash.
As I am currently as student at University, I don't have as much time for writing as I would like, but I try to publish whenever I can. :)
I also love reviews. So, please, if you enjoy (or don't enjoy!) my stories, please review.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to send me a message.
Thanks for checking out my profile and DFTBA. :D

DSTLD Mens Standard Leather Belt in Black
Our belts are built-to-last crafted with 100% imported cow leather and a brushed nickel buckle. While this foundational piece appears simple, the sturdy leather band features an intricate pattern of natural creases for a distinguished look. A polished waxed finish makes our Standard style an ideal piece for everyday casual wear. Our belts are made in the United States by a family owned and operated company with over three generations' experience. Materials are sourced from Australia and developed using the highest-level machinery and tools. **PLEASE ORDER THE BELT SIZE CLOSEST TO THE WAIST SIZE YOU WEAR IN OUR JEANS. IF YOU ARE UNSURE, SIZE DOWN ONE SIZE**
DSTLD Modern Crew Tees
The Modern Crew: new answer to the everyday essential men's tee. To give our crew a fully current appearance – and you a little room to breathe – we designed this style with a raw edge and a relaxed neckline. Subtle nuances in its pigment dye pose a unique something extra and a note of moto-inspired style. Finished with premium details like clean finished seams and chain-stitched shoulders, the Modern Crew stands apart from a conventional crew neck while keeping all the same mainstay status.
DSTLD Denim Button Down
We love the sporty, "wear-anywhere" feel of our slim fitted piqué polo. The lightly textured cotton fabric lends a dryer, more substantial hand for smart appeal and long lasting wear. Our white color stands out on its own or layered under a blazer, denim jacket, or sweater.
DSTLD Crew Neck Tees
Meet our modern-facing take on the gold standard men's Crew Neck. This tee features a slimmed down fit, clean lines, and slightly more room at the neckline than the old school permits. It's thoughtfully finished with premium details like a same-fabric collar (no ribbing), clean finished seams, and chain stitching at the shoulders. This is the wardrobe-making basic tee every man needs to outsmart life's various style requirements, be it a laid-back everyday moment or a more polished public outing.
DSTLD Mens Button Down Denim Shirt in Dark Vintage
Our Men's Denim Shirt in Dark Vintage is designed from soft, lightweight 7.5 oz. denim and carefully faded to replicate a broken in feel. The contrast stitching lends itself to a Western inspired yoke, with snap button detail and flap pockets rounding out DSTLD's tailored offering. Style over one of our white crew neck tees with the sleeves rolled for a rugged look.
DSTLD V Neck Tees
The V-neck tee – noted pillar of off-duty style. Our take on this essential men's style is simple and elevated. The shirts' 100% high grade cotton is considerately preconditioned, letting you enjoy that priceless soft handfeel from day one. A well-defined V neckline and smart slim fit ensure the deck is stacked; both weekend-casual and stepped-up style are in close reach. Last, the tees are finished with premium details like a smooth shared-fabric collar (no ribbing), clean finished seams, and chain stitching at the shoulders. Between softness, looks, and class, this tee just may give your old favorite a run for its money.

Sean McAdam of CSN New England is reporting that current Toronto Blue Jays manager John Farrell will be the next manager of the Boston Red Sox, and has agreed to a multi-year deal with the team.
The Blue Jays and Red Sox were haggling over compensation for Farrell to leave Toronto and head to Boston, where he was the pitching coach under Terry Francona from the 2007 season to the 2010 season. Farrell was named Blue Jays manager replacing the retired Cito Gaston after the 2010 season, and in his two seasons at the helm of the Blue Jays, he has a 154-170 record.
Farrell will be replacing Bobby Valentine, who was hired last winter to replace the fired Francona after Boston's collapse in September of 2011. Valentine's one season as Red Sox manager was an unmitigated disaster, and he was fired soon after the season ended.
The compensation that the Red Sox will be sending to the Blue Jays for Farrell is currently unknown, but it is known that last season, Toronto was demanding pitchers Clay Buchholz or Daniel Bard. The Red Sox also interviewed Brad Ausmus, DeMarlo Hale, Tony Pena, and Tim Wallach for the position, but Farrell seemed to be their guy from step one of the search.

Well Claire wasn't really hurt. Some children down the street were playing with firecrackers. One would go off every five seconds, and they did make quite the noise.
But firecrackers don't hit walls. Simon was surprised when something hit the wall next to Claire's van, but it wasn't until Claire drove off that he found it was a bullet.
and by the time he had picked up the bullet, there was no one but him and the kids with firecrackers playing on the road. Simon walked back home.
The next morning, Simon sat at the dining table, across his dad. He spooned cereal into his mouth. His dad had the newspaper open, and Simon thought it was a good thing, bacause it hid his fat ugly face. He didn't need to see that in the morning. He was smoking again, and Simon srewed up his face when he took a whiff of the foul smell.
But something caught Simon's attention today. There was a short artcle on the corner of the part of the newspaper that faced him

The band Space Vortex was in for a surprise after there performance onstage. Some thing went off with a bang backstage, and it wasn't their music. Lead singer Zoe said "Well something exploded, and we thought it was a bomb. When we called in security it turned out it was just a firecracker. It was pretty scary" she shivered
The police have regarded this as a harmless prank, and will not be investigating any further, despite drummer Claire Danerson saying that this wasn't the first time that she felt someone was "out to get her"

A core objective of my research practice and agenda is to help the Office of Finance improve its performance by better utilizing information technology. As we kick off 2014, I see five initiatives that CFOs and controllers should adopt to improve their execution of core finance functions and free up time to concentrate on increasing their department's strategic value. Finance organizations – especially those that need to improve performance – usually find it difficult to find the resources to invest in increasing their strategic value. However, any of the first three initiatives mentioned below will enable them to operate more efficiently as well as improve performance. These initiatives have been central to my focus for the past decade. The final two are relatively new and reflect the evolution of technology to enable finance departments to deliver better results. Every finance organization should adopt at least one of these five as a priority this year.

People who don't spend much time analyzing the software market may have trouble understanding the differences between products in a given software category or the difference between two categories. This happens because vendors and commentators use the same words to describe different depths of functionality and degrees of comprehensiveness in one type of application. As well, there can be multiple categories of software that address the same general business issues but are designed for different specific uses. Not only is it worth the effort to sort through the labels and understand what does what best, but different categories of software that are sold and deployed separately can provide even greater value when used together.

I Discover AsexualityMature
I Discover Asexuality
On reading the newspaper,
My eye spotted an article,
People with no sexual inclinations,
They do exist.
I thought about this,
I knew I loved women,
I had crushes only on women,
Emotionally, romantically,
I wanted only women,
Yet I sexually desired no-one.
At twelve I had of course,
Learnt about sex education,
Yet I knew I didn't want sex,
And this made no difference,
To my romantic feelings for women.
I had believed myself unique,
My uninterest in sex,
Was like my dislike of tea and coffee.
Up until this moment,
I had used the term platonic.
I recalled years ago,
How my primary school friends,
On learning of my love for Hillary,
Had naturally assumed and asked,
If I wanted to sleep with her.
I had denied this,
Though back then,
I had attributed this,
To being too young,
Yet as the years went by,
I was aware I had no sex drive,
Yet I fell in love with women.
On the computer,
I brought up Questweb,
Our homepage and search engine,
And researched asexuality.
Four specific romantic orientations,
Did I find out about,
Hetro, Homo, Bi and aromantic,
And naturally identified,
As homo-romantic asexual.

The Nissan lineup gets a little smaller for the 2016 model year, as the Pathfinder Hybrid is dropped from the range. With its debut in late 2013, the electrically assisted SUV is one of the company's more recent introductions. However, it never really caught on with the public.
"The Pathfinder Hybrid is not available in the US for the 2016 model year. Our emphasis is on the 3.5-liter V6 Pathfinder that achieves a best-in-class 20-city and 27-highway fuel economy," Nissan North America product communications director Dan Bedore confirmed to Autoblog. "Nissan has no announcement on future hybrid gasoline-electric powertrain applications at this time."
Nissan actually ended production of the Pathfinder Hybrid in January, and "the hybrid was never a big part of Pathfinder sales," Bedore said to Automotive News. For the price premium, the electrically assisted version that combined a supercharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder and a 20-horsepower electric motor was only rated three or four miles per gallon better in EPA combined ratings than with the V6. However, while the company doesn't outline individual sales of the two, powertrain variants, the SUV is performing well so far this year. Through June 2015, sales are up 4.9 percent with 41,938 units sold.
The future for the Infiniti QX60 Hybrid, which is the Pathfinder's more luxurious sibling, doesn't look very bright either. "For the United States, while the QX60 Hybrid continues to be available at some retailers across the country, our production is currently focused on the QX60 3.5 model," Infiniti spokesperson Kyle Bazemore told Autoblog. However, the vehicle is still in production at the Smyrna, TN, factory for export to places like China and Mexico. According to Bazemore if demand happens to increase in the US, "we have the manufacturing ability to make them available." Overall, QX60 sales are also up 14 percent this year in the US.

Modi magic in Bihar since Oct 27 last year
The aftereffects of the October 27 blasts went in favour of the
BJP as Modi made use of the opportunity to get closer to the people
of Bihar by visiting the kin of those killed in the explosions. The
next blow to the state politicians came in the general elections
held in April-May this year. The BJP swept the state by winning 22
of 40 seats while Lalu Prasad's Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) managed
just four and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) only two seats.
Nitish Kumar even left the chief ministership of Bihar after Modi
became the prime minister and decided to share the stage with Lalu
Prasad after two long decades.
Nitish & Lalu desperate to gain some ground by the time the next assembly elections come
That the two leaders are desperate to regain their lost grounds is evident from the fact that they have decided to join hands ahead of a set of bypolls in the state scheduled on August 21 and not the assembly polls due next year. Even a year ago, Nitish Kumar was badly hit by Lalu Peasad after the latter's RJD bagged the Maharajganj Lok Sabha seat by defeating the JD(U) by over 1.3 lakh votes. A few days after the debacle, Nitish decided to leave the NDA after Modi's rise in the BJP's ranks. The writing was on the wall for Nitish Kumar ever since.
Lalu Prasad, on the other hand, is well past his prime and the recent conviction in the fodder scam has given a further blow to whatever the former chief minister had left with him.
The two seasoned but cornered politicians who once rose on the ruins of the Congress system have perhaps seen their last chance to remain afloat in the national politics. The two have joined hands for there is very little option left for them to make an impact in individual capacities. The only alternative they could have to stop the BJP was to align with the Congress but with that party literally lying among the ruins, Nitish and Lalu could not do anything but back each other.
A post-poll Third Front emerging in India?
The RJD chief even appealed to Mayawati and Mulayam Singh Yadav, known to be arch-rivals in the neighbouring Uttar Pradesh, to join hands. There is clearly an effort to raise a third alternative in the national politics at the moment. The country has seen the idea of Third Front taking root mainly in the times of national election. May be this is the first time that a Third Front is taking shape after a general election. The Congress is also there in the Nitish-Lalu alliance but given its current shape and form, it's nothing better than a glorified extra.
But what are the chances of such alliances succeeding?
Difficult to predict how two egoist politicians will move from here
It is difficult to predict how an alliance between Lalu and Nitish will develop in Bihar for the next assembly election is still quite some time away. A number of states will go to the polls before Bihar and the BJP will be particularly watchful about those results. If the BJP maintains its good show in states like Maharashtra, Delhi, Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir, then the Nitish-Lalu-Congress alliance will be under huge pressure to stop the saffron party in Bihar next year.
Lalu & Nitish came together to fight the common enemy but do they have the trust anymore?
The Lalu-Nitish alliance is undoubtedly an arrangement to defeat
a common enemy and is based more on arithmetic than chemistry. The
voters in Bihar, after seeing both the egoist leaders as chief
ministers, will remember how they, particularly Nitish Kumar, took
their stands conveniently, without taking into account the voters'
preference. The trust deficit might be another major challenge for
the two friends-cum-foes for even if they win the bypolls and the
next assembly election, the question of who becomes the chief
minister could be another reason of conflict, leading to wastage of
another mandate.
The aim is to consolidate the anti-BJP votes
The allies already started targetting Modi in their first bypoll rally. The aim is to consolidate the anti-BJP votes as it had happened in eastern Bihar in the Lok Sabha polls earlier this year. But as it had happened in the western and southern parts, the BJP-LJP-RLSP alliance could be a difficult force to beat. The RJD and JD(U) will treat the bypolls as a rehearsal to test the durability of their alliance.
August 21 will be a memorable day in Bihar. There is no doubt about it.

B&W Printing Book
If we examine the works of great master painters and photographers, the work clearly illustrates that the relationship of light on form is the key element to creating an authentic masterpiece. In this book, we will explore this relationship, as well as the perceptual and technical skills necessary to practice and achieve presence.
The practice of making a masterpiece encompasses very advanced perceptual practice with simple tools. We, as artists and photographers, must hone our perceptual abilities in order to create masterpieces of our own. The tools available to us are simple, elegant, and few, yet complete enough to create any effect of light and form we need to produce presence.
Integrating authenticity into your own work, a process that some may call passion, can best be achieved through learning from someone who is familiar with the process - a mentor, a master, an experienced teacher and practitioner of the craft. This book won't take the place of that kind of one-on-one learning, but it can serve as a great first step to understanding what perceptual elements and tools of the trade go into refining one's own ability to represent the world with authenticity.
This book lays out a simple foundation for the creation of presence in a black-and-white print. It begins with the tools of perception - our eyes and brain - and continues on to the importance of a simple and masterful workflow. The discussion of aesthetic and technical issues is evenly distributed throughout the text so that you can get a "big picture" sense of the craft of black-and-white printing.
George DeWolfe is a master of the fine print: he studied with photographic geniuses Ansel Adams and Minor White, and worked as a consultant to the most significant companies in the digital photography world. Now, he passes on his considerable expertise to all, in a breathtaking new DIGITAL MASTERS guide that combines artistic concepts for taking beautiful photographs with an array of practical techniques. With interest in black-and-white exploding, digital photographers will rush to take advantage of the knowledge he imparts.
George DeWolfe is eminently qualified to write the ultimate guide to creating exhibition-quality black-and-white digital prints. He has studied with such geniuses as Ansel Adams - one of the greatest black-and-white photographers of all time - and worked as a consultant to the most significant companies in the digital photography field. DeWolfe is also one of the developers of Adobe Lightroom, the innovative new software program that many seasoned digital imaging connoisseurs have begun to use as their main image-processing tool.

On this page you can read about the Australian sugarcane industry, the players making up the industry and take in a short history of sugarcane in Australia.
30-35 Mt
sugar mills
largest raw sugar
supplier in world
The Australian sugarcane industry one of the world's most efficient and innovative producers and exporters of sugar, recognised world-wide for cutting edge technology & sustainable cane growing.
Australia's sugarcane is grown in high-rainfall and irrigated districts areas along coastal plains and river valleys on 2100 km of Australia's eastern coastline - between Mossman in far north Queensland and Grafton in New South Wales. Queensland accounts for about 95% of Australia's raw sugar production, and New South Wales around 5%.
More than 4000 sugar growing farms operate along Australia's eastern seaboard. While the average size of a cane farm is 100 hectares, some are in excess of 1000 hectares. While there are still a number of smaller farms, average farm size is increasing each year, as the number of growers contracts and area farmed by their cane farming business expands. This consolidation is made possible by advances in technology, and while some corporate companies have established large cane farming operations, there are still some 6000 cane growers in Australia. The Australian cane industry produces 30-35 million tonnes of cane per year, which when processed, equates to around 4-4.5 million tonnes of sugar.
The industry's focus is squarely on its international competitiveness because most sugar is exported and there is no domestic support price or subsidies.
At the farm gate, Australia has maintained competitiveness by adopting innovative practices -particularly through mechanisation, new farming practices and diversification.
Cane growing and sugar production underpins the economic stability of many coastal communities. It is the social fabric that has woven itself through the development of coastal townships up and down the coast.
Sugarcane growers have some of Australia's most unique vegetation, animal life, waterways and the Great Barrier Reef in their backyard. Things have really moved on from the hype some twenty years ago and growers have taken upon themselves the mantle of farming responsibly - to protect the natural resources, their children's heritage, and of course, the value of their property.
With advances in research and technology, sustainability does not necessarily mean reduced productivity and efficiency. Growers are proud of their environmental performance and adoption of more sustainable farming practices. All sugarcane in Australia has been harvested mechanically since 1979 and all sugar handled in bulk since 1964.
An industry, once characterised by brilliant cane fires, has largely turned away from the iconic blazes. The Queensland coastline, which is subject to seasonal inundation, has now virtually eliminated movement of soil once associated with the heavy rains. Over 80% of growers now cut the cane green and spread the trash cuttings over the harvested paddock. The cuttings act as a protective blanket for the soil, preventing soil erosion, assisting in weed control, improving soil structure and conserving moisture in the soil. It also reduces the need for soil cultivation and contributes to a reduction in nitrogen requirements. Harvesting green reduces the need for cane firing.
In fact cane growers are managing their soils in a whole new way now that research and development has shown substantial profitability and environmental gains can be made. There has been a big swing towards conservation tillage systems - like no and minimum till - which cuts down the number of times a farmer disturbs the soil. Leaving more plant residue undisturbed on the surface reduces surface water runoff and soil erosion. Less frequent tillage also reduces the amount of energy farmers need to run tractors, reducing costs and saving resources.
As new technology becomes more affordable, increasing numbers of growers are looking into more automated precision farming systems such as Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to assist them to target application of inputs – from fertiliser to water.
Use of chemicals has changed dramatically over the past 20 years. Cane growers complete voluntary training in the use of farm chemicals, which has resulted in a reduction in application rates and frequency. This is not only important for the environment, but also for our growers' bottom line. Ag-chemicals are expensive and subject to frequent price hikes. Applying fertiliser more precisely ensures more efficient yields, cuts down on wasted fertiliser and protects water quality.
Water and associated pumping costs account for one third of all costs for around 60% of Australia's cane growers who rely on costly irrigation. Water is an increasingly precious commodity and saving water is good business for cane growers. Irrigation water is monitored closely on all farms, with soil moisture readings an essential component of irrigation timing. Measurement of nutrient movement in irrigation run-off and ground water is widely practiced to ensure hard-won dollars are not wasted.
The environmental and economic importance of riparian zones (vegetation adjacent to watercourses) has changed practices enormously. Trees are left adjacent to water ways on all new developments and trees are being replanted in established areas, even though that replanting may reduce available area for cultivation. Riparian zones have a major role in filtration of nutrient run-off, stabilisation and prevention of bank erosion and siltation of waterways, and acts as a wildlife corridor. Planting trees on river banks eliminates undergrowth, weeds and grasses, greatly reducing rat populations around cane fields. In turn, this dramatically reduces the need for costly chemical controls.
Grower representative group, CANEGROWERS, has taken an active role in the promotion of good farming practices which result in increased sustainability, productivity and profitability.
Smut management is another sign of how far the industry has come in managing pests and diseases from the days of cane toad. When Australia found the first signs of this productivity stunting disease a few years ago, the industry was able to react immediately, enforcing quarantine zones and setting up access to more resistant varieties of sugarcane to replace those which were high yielding but extremely susceptible to the disease. Research continues into higher yielding resistant varieties.
As a direct result of the industry's aggressive research and development program, advances have been made in areas such as pest control, where many of our programs are world class and an example to other Australian industries. Many of the pest control programs now being developed are based on integrated pest management strategies involving biological control agents, transgenic canes, the use of chemicals and changed cultural practices.
World sugar production has undergone massive changes since 1970, particularly the emergence of Brazil as a dominant force, the growth of the European Union as a subsidised producer, the growth of Thailand and the decline of Cuba. Although the Australian industry developed under a regulated system which sought to match production with assured markets, it is now one of the least protected sugar producers in the world.
Where does Australian sugar go?
Australian sugarcane growers have realised that a better, more productive, more sustainable future is in their hands. They have adopted a proactive approach, addressing issues before community and conservationist concern generates restrictive and overbearing government intervention.
Cane growers regard sustainability not as a cost but as a potential means of improving their productivity and efficiency. Most importantly, they see sustainability as a basis for ensuring long term viability and the guarantee that future generations will continue to produce sugar - at a profit.
Sugar growers
Around 80% of Queensland sugarcane growers are members of the highly successful lobby, representation and services group, CANEGROWERS. There are 14 offices based in major cane growing regions up and down the coast of Queensland and northern New South Wales, with the State and National office located in Brisbane. To read more about CANEGROWERS, click on the logo.
http://www.asmc.com.auSugar milling
Australia has 24 sugar mills which crush an average 10,000 tonnes of cane daily and employ around 150 people during the season. Cane is transported to the mills by cane railway and road. Millers, growers and harvesters determine harvesting and transport schedules that ensure cane is crushed as fresh as possible. Average cut to crush time is less than 12 hours. Most sugar mills have been established for more than 100 years. The juice mill that began operating near Mareeba in 1998 was Queensland's first new mill in 73 years. To visit ASMC, click on the logo.
Sugar marketing
Sugar marketer, Queensland Sugar Limited (QSL) coordinates a group marketing service taken up by most of the Australian industry, which uses the bulk marketing power to leverage better deals for Australian sugar on the international market. Up until 2006, Australia enjoyed a 'single desk' arrangement where all sugar was compulsorily acquired by QSL. This was deregulated on 1 January 2006, however the majority of growers retain group marketing arrangements with QSL, which uses the bulk marketing power to leverage better deals for Australian sugar on the international market. QSL administers pool price arrangements, manages the industry's seven bulk sugar terminals, and manages sugar price and foreign exchange exposure to optimise returns to growers and millers. To visit QSL, click on the logo.
Sugar research
Today's best practice is unlikely to be tomorrows. In order to stay leaders in the adoption of sustainable cane farming practices we support ongoing relevant research and development. Thorough research, creative development and effective extension of new knowledge and technology are vital to every agricultural industry.
Sugar Research Australia (SRA) is the principal provider of research, development and extension to the Australian sugar industry. SRA employs scientists, engineers and administrative staff who work together to ensure that Australian sugarcane remains a valuable, viable commodity. SRA has several major programs of work and conducts these through its stations, centres and laboratories that are located in cane growing hubs throughout Queensland and northern New South Wales. To visit SRA, click on the logo.
Sugar logistics
The conversion from transporting raw sugar in bags, to receival, storage and shipping in bulk, commenced in Australia in the late 1950s.
There are now six bulk sugar terminals in Queensland located at the ports of Cairns, Mourilyan, Lucinda, Townsville, Mackay, and Bundaberg. These terminals are able to store two and a half million tonnes of bulk raw sugar. To visit STL, click on the logo.

The joy of finding "the just pair" of shoes! Invincible! But are you ready to flip on that gorgeous pair of stilettoes on your D-day? Yes, most often Indian brides tend to forget that beautiful feet aren't gifts. Hence foot care exercises should be a part of their beauty and fitness regime before their wedding.

He takes away the weight bench. I have never understood why you would let a prisoner workout to the point that when he gets out he's the size of a truck. Just stupid! All prisons should be like this!!
This is a discussion on Sheriff Joe Arpaio within the Law Enforcement, Military & Homeland Security Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; he does not put them in "girls underwear" he merely issues all prisoners pink clothing - some systems use stripes or bright orange - Pink ...
he does not put them in "girls underwear" he merely issues all prisoners pink clothing - some systems use stripes or bright orange - Pink has long been known to be a psychologically calming color...
he gives them nutritively adequate meals, and he does it at an extremely low cost...
If you are arrested, and have been living in an un-air conditioned environment in AZ and you wind up in his jail how is that cruel?
his simplistic methods of housing criminals was to comply with a judges order to uncrowd the overcrowded jail - the people of Maricopa Co. have had a choice - build more facilities or let the prisoners go...
Arpaio for President...

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
He's not liked by some of his officers, IIRC, for various reasons. One reason is because he requires all deputies to carry 24/7. He's also caught flak because the deputies he pulled for the Immigration Task Force had to come from somewhere. I recall reading that the action required the closing of a Sheriff's Office out in Wickenburg - which is why Aguila has got such a massive crime problem (the residents have taken the law into their own hands in quite a few cases).
Just playing Devil's Advocate, though. I wish I lived in Maricopa so I could say I have voted for him. I love him!
And as far as 'Cruel and Unusual Punishment'... if you think its cruel, don't commit crime. That's like arguing that we shouldn't be allowed to defend ourselves against an armed mugger because the justice system would only give them seven years in jail with cable tv, weights, 3 squares, and all the amenities the ACLU can provide.

Some people have it better in prison than on the outside. One of the purposes of prison is to be bad enough that people don't want to come back. I think that is what he's trying to do, make these guys not want to go back to jail.
But maybe in some of these cases it would be better if the person had been shot by their victim so they wouldn't have to suffer these abuses.
Jails, even in harsh on crime places like Texas, must meet state mandated jail standards. If what has been put on TV and on the news about Maricopa Cnty jails is true, I doubt they would meet even the lax standards in Texas. But, I admit that I don't know this for certain.
I only know what I saw on TV and in the news, and I was unimpressed by Mr. Arapaio.

He has appeared on TV with some "ladies" in there for prostitution. I hope no one wants to shoot them.
And, I don't want anyone in there for relatively minor issues dehydrating to death in the Arizona sun because the state won't provide adequate shelter.
Most things in life need to be done in proportionate manner. Stiff and very unpleasant punishments in the form of harsh living conditions for folks who commit serious crimes might be O.K., but I have a big problem when they are applied to minor criminals and to those not yet tried.
And I have an even bigger problem when they are applied to someone held solely because of an illness-- the guy with T.B.
He took away cable TV Until he found out there was A Federal Court Order

Sheriff Joe is a man's man.
Anyone can have their own "Sheriff Joe" running the county LEOs, the problem is the number of Far-left Liberals you have in your area that would prevent it.
I am very confused by this. I thought that a jail is place of detention prior to sentencing. Does this mean that there are innocents who have not had their day in court in Sheriff Arpaio's jail? Whatever happened with that case where he was accused of using his office to conceal ownership of commercial real estate? Didn't he go by the moniker "Dimebag Joe" when he worked for the DEA? I thought there were a series of lawsuits including one for wrongful death filed against the Maricopia jail?
From a Defensive Carry perspective, I think that the only thing here is too be very careful in understanding the law in Maricopia County, Arizona and to have a bail bondsman on speed dial. I would not want to have any sort of interaction with the Sheriff's office.
I retired from Maricopa County. Arpaio is a media hound buffoon. While he's done some amazing cost cutting measures, the county has paid out millions of dollars in lawsuits. The jails are a mixture of convicted (mostly misdemeanors) and folks who can't or won't bail out. They are not yet guilty, but they are not housed in Tent City. Arpaio made tons of friends when the inmates complained about the heat in the tents (which are military surplus). He stated that if our boys over in the sandbox can live in tents, so can his inmates. Joe's a media master. He brought Shaq in and made him an honorary deputy a few years ago. Now he actually lives here. He started chain gangs to clean roadways and vacant lots. He caters to the huge number of retirees in Maricopa County, and they ALL vote. Few of his employees care for him. His priorities do not lie with the deputy on the street. His recent campaign against illegal immigrants is doing wonders with his upcoming attempt at a fifth term in office. His office is rife with cronyism. The cities of Mesa and Phoenix have come across as catering to the illegals, Joe is making all the other departments look like fools when the blame first of all lies with the feds. Second, the cities in Maricopa County are scared to death to be labeled racist. That is why the illegal immigration problem has grown exponentially over the years. Joe is indeed a "get er done" guy, and is not afraid to step on toes doing it. He's really a mixed bag.
Treat me good, I'll treat you better. Treat me bad, I'll treat you worse.

Sheriff Joe is the Best. He runs the Jail, like a Jail should be run. I worked at MCSO back in 1988, Madison Street Jail, prior to Sheriff Joe taking office. It was always crowded. Then I can remember him taking Office and I use to see him in the Malls, signing the Pink Underware, to make money for other Dept. matters. He really is the Man. Now I'm back in Michigan, working in a Jail again and our Sheriff now is afraid of everything, especially being sued, so he ahs the top staff making sure inmates get everything. It BS but I will be out soon. I also took my Corrections Academy at Durange Jail before working at MCSO.. What a 6 weeks program. It did help out. I was a road officer prior to moving to Az.

All the human beings unanimously agree that lying is a bad habit. They even curse the person who lies to them and would like to sever all ties to the person who is doing such treacherous thing to them but if they are under certain pressure they will take no time to lie. But since this is not a normal process for any living being, while lying most of the human beings produce certain physiological reactions that can be detected and measured by using the lie detection machine on www.liedetectortest.uk
The measurable symptoms
The symptoms that can be measured are such as
- Increased breathing rate
- Increased blood pressure
- Increased pulse rate
- Increase in sweating
All these symptoms are also measurable in the case of anxiety and stress and this is the reason that this test cannot be used as evidence in the court of law. But, for all those who want to figure out if their partner is lying to them or their employee is working against the interest of the company or for anyone who is cheating on them, it is a great tool.
When you search for the agency that does 'lie detection test' you must make sure that you hire the one that is reliable and experienced such as www.liedetectortest.uk. Only a professional who has an experience of carrying out this test will be able to perform the test properly and give you results with 95% to 98% accuracy.
The graph
When the subject gives answers of the questions asked by the examiner the sensor son the body of the examinee record the changes produced in the body. These changes are recorded in the form of a graph. Each graph is then examined and studied by the professionals to come to a conclusion.

Every Friday @ 6P.M. right after GAC.
help......the irony is crushing me.....
Reminds me of an episode of M*A*S*H where Hawkeye bets BJ he can go all day without cracking a joke and all around him are perfect set ups for wisecracks.
and Gallowaste gets to introduce TO's show.......:laugh2:
I read Dan LeBatard out of Miami is going to be hosting the show with Owens. He hosted Owens' radio show last year and I am sure it was a stipulation of Owens that LeBatard be the host again since the two of them appear to have a good relationship.
Sounds good to me... TO needs to surrounded by good people and people that get along with him and vice versa... we already enough mediots CREATING the news... so atleast this is somewhat controlled.....
