Location: Forage and Range Research2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
(1) Compare livestock performance, economics, and subsequent carcass characteristics from beef grazing grass monocultures and low- and high-tannin grass-legume mixtures versus traditional feedlot-based finishing; (2) Determine best possible grass-legume mixtures and plant densities that maximize pasture productivity and nutritional quality; and (3) Determine the effects of tannins on nutrient cycling in grazing systems.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
To compare livestock performance, economics, and subsequent meat quality of beef produced from grass monocultures versus low- and high-tannin grass-legume mixtures. (1) Determine if tall fescue (TF)-legume mixed pastures will enhance livestock performance (ADG, feed efficiency, intake, and nutrient digestibility) and to compare if the animal performance will be further improved when animals are grazed on TF-birdsfoot trefoil (BFT) mixed pasture; (2) Investigate in vitro fermentation characteristics of forage pastures used in grazing study with emphasis on microbial protein synthesis and ruminal fatty acid (FA) composition; (3) Assess how different compositions of pasture alter carcass characteristics and beef quality; (4) Determine the differences in the FA composition of beef from pasture-finished vs. feedlot-finished cattle and the time required for changes in FA composition to occur; and (5) Assess the economics and barriers to adoption of grazing-based beef production, develop an effective extension program to facilitate the adoption of grazing management for beef production, and create an awareness of the beneficial nutrient management and other environmental impacts of such an exchange.
3. Progress Report:
During FY-2012: A two-yr grazing study was completed, and animal performance results have been published. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effects of finishing beef cattle grazed on tall fescue (TF) pastures without or with nitrogen (N) fertilization on growth performance, ruminal fermentation, and carcass characteristics. In each grazing season, 18 Angus crossbred steers were arranged in a completely randomized design with repeated measures on the following two treatments: TF without N fertilizer (TF–NF) and TF with N fertilizer (TF+NF). Three replicated pastures with 3 steers per replicate were assigned to each treatment. A total of 168 kg/ha N fertilizer was applied in three split applications at 56 kg/ha each to the TF+NF in each grazing season. Steers rotationally grazed on 0.47-ha pasture for 7 d with a 28-d rotation interval for a total of 16 wk. Body weight data and pasture forage samples were collected every four weeks, whereas ruminal fluid was collected at weeks 4, 10, and 16. After the completion of 16-wk grazing, ultrasound measurement was performed to assess carcass characteristics. In response to N fertilization, greater CP concentration was detected on TF+NF compared with TF–NF (P < 0.01). Overall average daily gain (ADG) was greater (P<0.05) and dry matter intake trended upward (P=0.07) in steers that grazed TF+NF pastures (P < 0.05). Regardless of N fertilization, ADG peaked between week 4 and 8 (1.05 kg/d; P < 0.01), and then declined until week 16. Greater total volatile fatty acid (VFA) concentrations were detected in ruminal fluid of steers that grazed TF+NF (P < 0.01), but only a minor effect was shown on individual VFA (acetate, propionate, and butyrate) concentrations and acetate-to-propionate ratio. Ruminal ammonia-N (NH3-N) concentration increased (P < 0.01) with N fertilization, while NH3-N:total VFA increased (P < 0.01) with the progression of grazing seasons. Back fat thickness, ribeye area, and intramuscular fat concentration did not differ between treatments. Generally, this study indicates that N fertilization on TF affected ruminal fermentation which positively influenced growth performances, but did not affect carcass characteristics of grazing beef steers. In addition, readily fermentable carbohydrate supplementation is needed to improve utilization of increased dietary CP due to N fertilization and consequently enhance growth performances of grazing steers. A peer reviewed journal article on this study in the Professional Animal Scientist is accepted and in press. An in vitro continuous culture study was conducted to investigate energy supplementation strategies on pasture forages. Eight dual-cow continuous culture fermentors (700 mL) were used to assess effects of energy supplementation [no concentrate, 30% ground corn, or 30% dried distilled grains with solubles (DDGS)] with 4 pasture forages [tall fescue (TF) without N fertilizer (TF-NF), TF with N fertilizer (TF+NF), TF-alfalfa mixture, and TF-birdsfoot trefoil mixture (TF+BFT)] on in vitro ruminal fermentation and N utilization. Twelve dietary treatments were tested in a completely randomized design with a 3 (energy supplements) × 4 (pasture forages) factorial arrangement. Forages were supplied in four equal portions at 0600, 1200, 1800, and 2400 h, while energy supplements were fed in two equal portions at 1200 and 2400 h. Three replicated runs lasted 10 d each, with the first seven days allowed for microbial adaptation to the diets, and three days for sampling. Mean culture pH was affected by energy supplementation (P < 0.01), but not by forage, ranging from 5.94 to 6.44. Total VFA concentration increased by corn, but decreased due to DDGS supplementation (P < 0.01). As a result of interaction between energy supplements and pasture forages, the greatest VFA concentration was achieved when corn was added in the TF+NF (P < 0.01). Decreases in ruminal ammonia-N concentration, methane production, and acetate-to-propionate ratio were observed when corn or DDGS was added in the diets (P < 0.01). These results indicate that supplementing pasture forages with corn or DDGS enhanced microbial assimilation of ammonia-N and shifted metabolic pathways of microbial fermentation. Supplementation of corn in the TF+BFT elicited a similar ammonia-N concentration compared when corn was supplemented in the TF+NF. Therefore, grass-legume mixtures would be a sustainable component in grass grazing systems to improve N utilization efficiency with appropriate energy supplementation. This study was recently published in the peer-reviewed journal, The Professional Animal Scientist. The small plots of binary mixtures of five grasses [orchardgrass (OG), tall fescue (TF), meadow brome (MB), timothy, and perennial ryegrass (PR)] and three legumes [alfalfa (AF), birdsfoot trefoil (BF), and cicer milkvetch (CM)] were established and data collection was begun. Ratios in the mixtures included 0, 25, 50, and 75% legume composition. Seasonal forage production of unfertilized TF, MB, and OG monocultures was 1.45, 1.02 and 0.96 Mg/ha respectively. Tall fescue, OG, and MB grass-legume mixes averaged 6.0, 5.0, and 14.0% higher forage production than their respective grass monocultures. The highest seasonal forage production of TF combinations was 1.62 Mg/ha TF:AF (50:50), 1.63 Mg/ha TF:BF (75:25), and 1.64 Mg/ha TF:CM (75:25). Highest forage production of OG combinations was 1.10 Mg/ha OG:AF (50:50), 1.09 Mg/ha OG:BF (75:25), and 0.99 Mg/ha OG:CM (75:25). Highest seasonal forage production of MB combinations was 1.23 Mg/ha MB:AF (50:50), 1.25 Mg/ha MB:BF (75:25), and 1.11 Mg/ha MB:CM (75:25). Individual harvests showed a similarly higher yield of the mixtures over the monocultures. Relative species composition had an overall effect on total forage yield. Mixtures with CM and BF were most productive when they constituted 25% of the mix, and AF at 50% of the mix. These preliminary results suggest that grass-legume mixtures can be an effective strategy to improve pasture productivity. In addition, the nutrient cycling experiment is underway. The paddocks have been reestablished, and baseline soil samples were collected in the fall of 2011. Grazing and data collection began in 2012. Soil subsamples are analyzed for available nitrogen (ammonia and nitrate) and for total N by combustion. Leachate samples are being collected every two weeks during the growing season. Samples were analyzed for nitrate-nitrite. Plant samples, collected before and after each grazing event, were used to determine the nutrients removed in the forage. Herbage dry matter analyses and total nitrogen (N) were analyzed. A mass balance approach comparing total nitrogen outputs against total nitrogen inputs for each treatment will be utilized to estimate losses due to volatilization. The effect of tannins on nitrogen cycling will be examined.

Under This Sky
I was born in a place where there was always wars going on. Life was not absolutely easy there. My parents were farmers who had not been educated in their live, so they'd never got involved in politics but they (including me) gotta flee their very own country anyway. And this poem is portrayed about my past, which was filled with darkness of my life and light of my little, broken heart.
When I was eight
I wanted to be a doctor
Dreamed to be great
But slipped at the corner.
My mom told me not to cry
Even I had tears left in my eyes
My dad whispered me to smile
During the days I was on fire.
When I grew up
I saw hundreds of people
Claimed to be freedom-fighters
But they all became the zoo-keepers.
Some were good at lying
But some were really good at crying
Some said, they knew too much
But some, confused of the 'knowing'.
During those days in prison
I walked as a gentle-man
During those nights in jail
I became a greedy-man.
During those days in the horizon
I played game with my lover
She said, she loved to be mine
She didn't know; I was just a loser.
My friends taught me
How to become a man
My girlfriends taught me
How to kiss a woman.
My friends loved me
By sitting and kissing drugs
My girlfriends loved me
By increasing and lifting lust.
When I arrived in another land,
I changed my channel
Some said, I lost my mind
Some said, I looked funnier.
May be they were right
What they said, I was sick
Look at the way I slept
Some days, I'd rot to pieces.
I was not afraid to die
But afraid to live as an ignorant guy
I always laughed when I should mind
I cried when I become one of them, guy.
I loved those night skies
Loved the stars flow and fly
They burned, they lighted and they fired
Permitted me to rest and rhyme.

There's no doubt that if you've decided to embark on a visit to the island of Maui, you want a little adventure. Planning a Maui vacation can be a lot of fun, but travelers do worry that they may not be able to find enough to do while there. To an outsider, Maui is well-known for its white, sandy beaches and tropical climate, but you'll want to do more than that when you arrive. It's best to research some activities while you are still on the mainland. Some activities may be special events that you'll need to reserve ahead of time, and it's always nice to have a rough itinerary in mind before embarking on a Maui adventure.
First-time vacationers may feel a bit overwhelmed when they first arrive in Maui, and may not even know where to go or what to see first. It's a terrific idea to get a private, guided tour when you first arrive, and this way, you'll be slightly familiar with Maui when you try to sightsee by yourself. For example, Road to Hana tours are private and customizable, and are done right in the privacy of your own rental vehicle. With your own tour guide in tow, you can explore what Maui has to offer – parts you may have never seen just sightseeing on your own. Road to Hana tours have several different types of tours, such as one specified for just waterfalls and hikes, and all of them can be completely customized to your needs. For example, if you wanted a tour of Maui's best beaches, simply let your tour guide know.
If there is ever a doubt when it comes to your activities or events when you are staying at the Royal Lahaina Hotel, simply contact the activities desk before your arrival or during your trip to find more great things to do while on the island. Book your next excursion at the Royal Lahaina Hotel, and take home memories that last a lifetime.

Little Falls man who lost hand in farming accident recovering
LITTLE FALLS — In a split second, Jamie Houdek's life passed before his eyes.
The Little Falls man thought about his beautiful wife, Lisa, and their three precious daughters — Mikayla, 10, Breanna, 6, and Madison, 2 — hoping he would get to see them again and hold them in his arms.
It was Nov. 13, 2013. It should have been a normal day for Houdek, but that was not the case. The day turned tragic and was one that changed his life forever.
Houdek, who is a diesel mechanic at Camp Ripley and has been in the Minnesota National Guard for almost 15 years, decided to take a day off to catch up on farm work and to get in a little deer hunting on the family's 60-acre hobby farm, located a few miles west of Little Falls. That November morning, he went deer hunting for a few hours and then went back to the house to warm up and have a bite to eat. It was around 11 a.m. Houdek told his wife that he was going outside to pick corn on their field, where they raise a dozen beef cows.
Lisa Houdek asked him if he would be taking his cellphone and he said he wasn't because he didn't want to lose it. She said alright and told him to be safe.
Jamie Houdek then went out the door, hopped on his tractor with the corn picker machine he rented and went to work. He got about halfway around the field and then stopped.
Houdek's description of the ordeal he went through in the farming accident is a harrowing one and may be too graphic for some readers.
"I was kind of in a hurry because I wanted to get a bunch done that day and so I jumped off and I left it running, which I shouldn't have," said Houdek, who got off the tractor to make sure everything was running properly. "I like to double check the moisture of the corn and stuff and what I do is grab a cob and bust it in half ... I knew better and I don't know why I did it because a field of corn was around me but I went to grab a cob of corn out of the husking bin of the picker and as soon as I reached for it my right hand got caught in the rollers of the husking bed and began pulling my right hand in. When that happened, my natural instinct set in and I went to plant my left hand against the machine to give me leverage to pull so I'm pulling on my right hand because my fingers were already in and as I was pulling and focused on my right hand, all of a sudden I felt my left hand getting pulled in another direction and my left hand got caught on another roller and was being twisted and wrapped around the roller backwards.
"At that point both my arms were being pulled in so I took my head and planted it against the machine as a brace ... I was there for, I don't know how long, couple of minutes or something and I knew I was getting tired and I knew I was losing ground and more and more I was getting pulled into the machine. I had to do something or I was going to die in this machine ... I was thinking about Lisa and my kids ... At that point I don't remember any pain ...
"I took my right arm, what was left, and I gave it a hard jerk. I felt the bone snap and feed through the machine and then the skin and meat and tendons were still hooked up so I kept twisting my right arm back and fourth, rubbing it up and down on the shafts that were spinning and finally my arm separated from my hand and my hand fed through."
Houdek still was not free as his left arm was still stuck on a different shaft on the machine. Houdek tried to hold his right arm close to his shoulder to stop the bleeding. Houdek finally was able to use his body weight to step on a lower shaft to stop the machine from continuing to pull his left arm in.
Houdek tried to stay awake so he wouldn't go into shock. He prayed and thought of his family. He tried not to get frustrated about his situation, as he saw "a bunch of cars go by" but they didn't see him. Houdek hoped motorists would see his blood that was splattered on the machine and that they would stop and help him.
He finally heard his tractor idle down and the engine was shut off. He knew someone had found him.
"I was like thank God someone finally stopped," Houdek said.
His neighbor Kevin Molitor, who was on his tractor, spotted Houdek and thought that he was fixing it. Molitor discovered that Houdek was in trouble, helped him get his left arm out and they walked to the edge of the road for help. They then spotted another neighbor, Dennis Sobiech who went to the Houdeks' house to call 911. The time of the call was 12:25 p.m., about 90 minutes past the time he had left the house.
Houdek was taken by ambulance to St. Gabriel's Hospital in Little Falls and then flown to North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale. They were unable to save Houdek's right hand because it had been severely crushed and was dirty.
Houdek said he remembered telling the medical staff, "I don't care about either one of my hands, I just want to live. Just don't let me die. I have a wife and three kids to take care of.
"They kept reassuring me that I was going to be OK."
For the past three months, it has been a long road for Houdek and his family. He went through four surgeries and has made multiple trips to the doctor for physical therapy. Houdek had a prosthetic arm fitted for his right arm from the Minneapolis VA Health Care System. His left arm from his elbow down had eight breaks and two rods are supporting the bones. He had to have skin grafts done and still is recovering.
Houdek was able to come home for Thanksgiving and Christmas and finally was home for good on Feb. 3.
"It was really hard to say the least," Houdek said of his accident and recovery. "I'm 32 and in the military and I can't live a normal life. I couldn't dress myself or go to the bathroom by myself. I couldn't grab things. Only thing I could do is walk. ... It was pretty hard and depressing, but I am lucky to be alive. It's getting better."
Doctors tell Houdek that he should be able to gain back 75-90 percent of his left hand/arm abilities.
The Houdeks are taking it day-by-day. Daily tasks that previously didn't require any thought, now must be accomplished in a new way with a prosthetic arm and a left hand that cannot hold anything with a grip. The family has learned tricks to make daily tasks easier, such as changing their door knobs from ones that were circular to ones with a handle.
Not only are the physical tasks difficult, but the mental state of mind also has been challenging. Houdek said his 6-year-old daughter asked him when the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus would be bringing his right hand back to him.
"She's 6, so she has no filter," said Lisa Houdek. "We tried to explain to her that once you lose a limb like that you don't get it back.
"I would give millions of dollars for him to have his hand back."
The couple said it's still tough and emotional to go out in public as people stare at them differently because of the prosthetic arm. But they said life is getting easier.

We live in a culture of casual certitude. This has always been the case, no matter how often that certainty has failed. Though no generation believes there's nothing left to learn, every generation unconsciously assumes that what has already been defined and accepted is (probably) pretty close to how reality will be viewed in perpetuity. And then, of course, time passes. Ideas shift. Opinions invert. What once seemed reasonable eventually becomes absurd, replaced by modern perspectives that feel even more irrefutable and secure - until, of course, they don't.
But What If We're Wrong? visualizes the contemporary world as it will appear to those who'll perceive it as the distant past. Chuck Klosterman asks questions that are profound in their simplicity: How certain are we about our understanding of gravity? How certain are we about our understanding of time? What will be the defining memory of rock music 500 years from today? How seriously should we view the content of our dreams? How seriously should we view the content of television? Are all sports destined for extinction? Is it possible that the greatest artist of our era is currently unknown (or - weirder still - widely known but entirely disrespected)? Is it possible that we overrate democracy? And, perhaps most disturbing, is it possible that we've reached the end of knowledge?
Kinetically slingshotting through a broad spectrum of objective and subjective problems, But What If We're Wrong? is built on interviews with a variety of creative thinkers - George Saunders, David Byrne, Jonathan Lethem, Kathryn Schulz, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Brian Greene, Junot Díaz, Amanda Petrusich, Ryan Adams, Nick Bostrom, Dan Carlin, and Richard Linklater, among others - interwoven with the type of high-wire humor and nontraditional analysis only Klosterman would dare to attempt. It's a seemingly impossible achievement: a book about the things we cannot know, explained as if we did. It's about how we live now, once "now" has become "then".

Chuck only narrates the first 4 minutes...
I purchased this audiobook because I LOVE Klosterman. I realized 30 seconds into chapter 2, that what I LOVE, is Klosterman reading Klosterman. I am confident that Fiona Hardingham is a wonderful narrator but it feels jarring to hear her reading this material. I can only assume that the content is classic Klosterman but I cannot consume it in its current incarnation.
- Tiger
A VERY misleading waste of my money
I already bought and read the kindle version of this book -- I ONLY bought the audible version because I noticed Klosterman was one of the narrators. I love it when he reads his own work, because he usually drops in a lot of parenthetical asides, so it's like getting Bluray bonus features on a book you've already enjoyed.
This book is NOT "Narrated by Chuck Klosterman and Fiona Hardingham". This book is "Narrated by Fiona Hardingham (With an Introduction by Chuck Klosterman)". That is not a small difference. That is the difference between me spending or NOT spending $19 on a book I already own.

The build quality of the system's four CS 25 FCR satellites is far from exemplary, but at least they're a step up from the sort of compact speakers you get with most budget all-in-one systems. They sound a little hollow when given the 'tap test', and with the cloth grill removed the tiny tweeter blister and cellulose cone feel like they could easily be damaged by a curious toddler. Each one is also equipped with springclip speakers, which lack the sturdiness of binding posts. But none of this is surprising given the measly £179 price tag. In fact, at this price they have no right feeling as robust as they do.
And thankfully they've been styled with a keen eye for today's AV trends. You can see your face in the gloss black finish that's bound to look great next to 99 per cent of TVs and Blu-ray players, while their curved sides lend them a touch of panache that you don't often get from cheap compact speakers. What's more, they're wall-mountable using the holes on the back, or you can attach them to the optional table stand (M 50 P).
The CS 25 FCR is a two-way design, which means it uses two drivers (a tweeter and woofer) to reproduce sound with a crossover regulating which frequencies go to each driver. The 80mm midrange driver and 19mm tweeter sit inside a curved baffle, which according to Teufel radiates sound more effectively than other designs.
The centre speaker in this setup is the CS 35 C, the same one used by the step-up Consono 35 system. It's basically one of the front/rear satellites redesigned for horizontal placement, with identical styling and the same 80mm midrange driver and 19mm tweeter inside. It's supplied with a cradle that allows you to plonk it on your TV stand, but like the other sats it can be wall-mounted if required.
The final piece of the puzzle is the US 5108/1 SW subwoofer, a lower-specified version of the Consono 35's US 5110/1 SW, which delivers deeper bass frequencies through its larger driver and greater internal volume.
The sub could play a crucial role in handling low frequencies given the inevitable bass limitations of the small satellites. It's equipped with a Klippel-optimised long throw 200mm bass driver and a bass reflex opening on the side. It's powered by a newly developed 100W amplifier and can dip down to a frequency of 38Hz, while an internal limiter protects it from overmodulation and distortion.
The stunning external design includes a sumptuous gloss black front panel that curves slightly on either side. Helpfully, Teufel has fitted a standby button on the front, which means you won't pull a muscle trying to reach the rear panel, plus the way the button lights up blue or red is a lovely touch.
The rest of the controls are on the back panel, but get it set up correctly and you shouldn't need to touch them. They include switches to correct the phase and set the automatic activation mode, plus dials for volume and input sensitivity for the auto activation mode. It keeps things simple on the socketry front, sporting just a single cinch input.
Thanks for the review, I was considering these but have decided against it as I don't really want to get a surround system until I can afford a "proper" one. Does nobody make active stereo speakers any more? I am looking to upgrade the sound on my TV, but my options all seem to start with buying an amp/receiver. I'm on a budget and would really much rather just buy active speakers. I can't see any reviewed here (perhaps I'm not looking hard enough). Would appreciate any thoughts on this and sorry for going OT, cheers.
I think active stereo ones are usually aimed at the PC market, e.g. Creative Gigaworks T20 and T40 and no doubt logitech have similar offerings.
Alternatively I think Teuful and Onkyo do speakers systems with the amp built into the sub if that's any good to you.
Might this be what you are looking for?
mistrip; Martin Daler: Many thanks for the suggestions! I will hijack this thread no more :)
@MrGodfrey: Or try these - http://www.trustedreviews.c...
I wonder if reviewers live on the same planet as the rest of us - the E400 is listed at nearly £450!
I tried to solve MrGodfrey's problem with an Orbitsound T12 soundbar, "version one" bought at half-price from eBay when Orbitsound brought out a new version of it. "Spatial sound" rather than stereo, and the subwoofer is too thick and heavy (sonically). Other brands do soundbars, which do improve the sound from flat panel TVs. I've seen great reviews of the Onkyo HDX 2.1 (upgradable to 5.1) but it's double what I got the Orbitsound for, and the latter solved my space problem too.

Clayton State student shot twice near campus
MORROW, Ga. - Authorities say a Clayton State University student was shot in the parking lot of a nearby apartment complex early Sunday morning.
Clayton State University officials said the shooting happened at the Clayton Station Apartments at about 1:45 a.m.
The student and a co-worker were getting out of a car parked near a group of about 10 unfamiliar people.
Officials said the pair was walking to their apartment when shots were fired, apparently by one of the people in the large group.
The student, who was shot in the ankle, and his co-worker then ran inside the apartments.
After an additional investigation, the student was found to have second bullet injury under the right arm. He was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital and treated. He is in good condition, officials said.
No arrests have been made.
Authorities are still investigating the shooting

Understanding the New 60-Day Overpayment Rule
Federal regulations for identifying and reimbursing Medicare overpayments impose new obligations you can't afford to ignore.
Fam Pract Manag. 2016 May-June;23(3):12-14.
Author disclosure: no relevant financial affiliations disclosed.
Published online ahead of print on April 26, 2016.
Did you know that any overpayment by Medicare that is not repaid within 60 days of being identified converts to a false claim, which can result in prosecution? New regulations released by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in February extend the scope of what constitutes an overpayment, expand the timeframe during which a physician practice must be on the lookout for potential problems, and make practices liable for overpayments going back six years. This is a new world order and will require practices to change their processes and refresh their compliance plans. Any practice that has not yet adopted a compliance plan, with procedures on this and other billing and administrative issues, should do so immediately.
The regulations are barely a page long, but the related commentary spans 25 pages in the Federal Register.1 This article explains the regulations but also draws on the commentary provided by the regulators to address implications that the regulations themselves did not confront.
What is an overpayment?
The regulations say an overpayment is any funds received or retained under Medicare Part B to which the person "is not entitled."1 (The rules extend to Part A as well, but we do not cover those here.) Obvious overpayments include duplicate payments, payments in excess of the allowable amount, payments when another payer is primary, and payments for services by an excluded person.
Less obvious are payments that result from the following:
Accidental or intentional up-coding,
Claims resulting from violations of the anti-kickback or physician self-referral ("Stark") laws,
Payments for services that are not medically necessary,
Payments not supported by adequate documentation,
Payments for services provided by nonqualified individuals,
Payments for services that do not meet coverage requirements, "incident-to" guidelines, the teaching physician rules, or the Stark group practice definition.
The definition of overpayment is sweeping, and the regulations put the burden on the recipient to be proactive about identifying them.
When is an overpayment identified?
The identification of an overpayment triggers a 60-day obligation to repay the identified amount. After 60 days, the claim becomes false. A false claim is subject to triple the charges plus up to $11,000 for each improper claim, a value that will increase over time. Whistleblowers can also file suit over unreported false

Pressestimmen"The strength of Thinking and Reasoning is its comprehensiveness. It covers not only the most important topics, from categorisation and reasoning to decision making and problem solving, but also other major perspectives on thinking such as expertise and developmental issues. The book also examines more recent topics, such as teaching thinking and creativity, which are not to be found in older textbooks. In general this is an excellent text: readable, comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date. I would be surprised if this did not become the major undergraduate text in the area for several years to come." European Journal of Cognitive Psychology "An outstanding work, which should be recognized both in the UK and the USA as the best introduction to the psychology of thinking. It is comprehensive and lucidly written - an impressive book." Professor P. N. Johnson-Laird, Princeton University "Garnham and Oakhill present their book under the guise of an objective text for 'intermediate and advanced undergraduate students'. It is, however, delightfully informative and charmingly opinionated. It should be read by upper-division under-graduate and graduate students, faculty, and researchers, as well as two-year technical program students." P. L. Derks, College of William and Mary

Almost everybody has a blog. Either it is a personal blog, a business blog, a celebrity blog, a school blog or any activity that people do. People blog because it is an effective, efficient and an easy way of disseminating information across the globe. In minutes you can have your own blog as there are plenty of blog platforms online that allows you to set up your own blog for free.
But, although you knew the technical side on how to set up a blog, name it with your name or alias or anything that you can think of, the hurdle that most bloggers face especially the new ones is the simple question of What to write about on the blog.
Maybe you will say that you can write on any topic that you can think of and post it on your blog because it is just a personal blog anyway. Of course, you can do that. But think of this, when you are driving your car, you have set your mind on a specific destination to go to right? Same with blogging. To have a successful blog and create an online footprint, you need to think of a specific theme or niche for your blog.
Why Choosing a Niche for your blog Matters?
- You can set a specific direction for your blog.
- You can set yourself as a specialist or an expert in a topic area.
- You can create your own brand.
- You can build your own business.
- You can establish trust and credibility
- You can create your own community.
- You can justify higher fees later on.
Quick Tip: Having a specific niche blog matters to SEARCHERS and to SEARCH ENGINES. Searchers search for a specific topic when they need to get information and details. And they would type in a very specific keyword in the search engine bar to get the accurate result that they are looking for.
Search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing as well aims to give searchers the accurate results that they need thus encouraging bloggers to have a specific niche blog to achieve this purpose.
How can you decide what niche is best for your blog?
Start answering these important questions that will help you decide on what niche to consider to:
What are your interests? Jot down the things and activities that you are having fun of doing. For instance, do you like sports? What specific sport? Basketball, football, volleyball or tennis? If basketball is your game then for sure you knew how many times Kobe Bryant became an MVP or what year Michael Jordan retired from the game right?
Your interests can lead you in writing credible and excellent articles for your blog. You wont be running out of topics to right about because you can always write updates from the previous posts you've written. And the fun and excitement of writing will always show on your every post.
What are your passions? If you have narrowed down all your interests and decided on a specific activity or topic that your heart desires and eventually loving writing about it, it becomes your passion. If you have picked a niche that you are really passionate about, you will definitely enjoy doing it over and over again.
What areas are you knowledgeable of? Being knowledgeable on a certain topic would be easier and comfortable for you to come up with informative and plausible posts. Your knowledge on something will be your edge on establishing a credible online presence and will have a great chance of becoming an specialist on your chosen niche later on.
What are your experiences? As the saying goes, "Experience is the Best Teacher". People will always ask you whenever you are claiming to be an expert or an experienced person on a particular area on how long have you been doing this or that before they will believe you are really experienced. Even though you have proven to them that you can definitely excel on your area, the number of years of practicing it indeed matters.
In blogging, you can consider your experience on a topic or an activity as your theme or niche because you are confident that what you will write on your blog are already guaranteed effective and reliable and factual.
If you have answered those questions above, your very first post will show that you are knowledgeable about a niche that interests you. Passionate about the subject, and would tell the readers that you're indeed an experienced one that can be a credible source of information.
With regard to the formats and styles of writing, we all have our own distinct way on how to express our thoughts and ideas in writing. Make it simple. Simple writing is the most effective way of writing. Keep in mind that you want your readers to understand your article or post.
What are you waiting for? Start writing your very first blog post!

For 30 non-consecutive years, Megadeth has been building a case for not simply being a part of the Big Four of thrash metal. It is not only the fact that the group has released 13 studio albums and has 10 Grammy nominations to its credit. Nor is it that the band came into existence out of a feud with Metallica, one of the other Big Four and one that has repeatedly abandoned its charge to rock with both thrash and speed. It is the fact that Megadeth tickets continue to reign to this day.
For most of 2012 that has meant the continuation of the TH1RT3EN World Tour, which began back in 2011 upon the release of the album inspiring the name of the concert schedule. Now, as those dates come to an end, Dave Mustaine, David Ellefson, Shawn Drover, and Chris Broderick are already revving for the Countdown to Extinction 20th Anniversary Tour. The new tour will take Megadeth from Providence, Rhode Island on November 9, 2012 to Pomona, California on December 7, 2012.
As the name suggests, it is the 20th anniversary of the release of Countdown to Extinction. Back in 1992 race riots plagued Los Angeles and the first Gulf War dominated the news. These were contentious times and Megadeth encapsulated it in song. "Symphony of Destruction" was the best charting and most memorable of the four singles. The album is not only listed among the most impressive of Megadeth's albums, but among metal albums of all time. This is an album seething with anger, but not anger left to its devices. Instead, it is perfectly tuned for the times and its message.
Now is not just a great time numerically to re-release a previously re-released album, but a time with as much cataclysm as back then. Seemingly every word mentioned seems tinged with vitriol and the spirit of the album rings as true today, perhaps inspiring new interpretations for a new era. This is the time for Megadeth tickets as well and fans bridging the generations are coming out in search of a chance to release their anguish with this sweet symphony of rage.

My husband, Mac, and I have taken on this project to try and help others see the final resting places of their loved ones. I enjoy genealogy research, and have been helped by FAG volunteers filling my requests for photos, therefore we thought this would be a good way to "pay it forward". If anyone has additional information to add or corrections that should be made to these memorials, please let me know.
You are more than welcome to use photos that we've made and added to FAG however, we would ask that you give us credit by adding the following information:
Find A Grave volunteer: Hancock #47167004.
"Dear Ancestor
Your tombstone stands among the rest;
Neglected and alone.
The name and the date are chiseled out
On polished, marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who cares
It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you
In flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
One hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left
Who would have loved you so.
I wonder if you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot,
And come to visit you."

This is my family, my first cousin, why would I not want his memorial? I would appreciate it if you would transfer it to me. Thanks again

Hi We spoke awhile back and you transferred my great grandmother memorial to me. I have found out her son Willie Rycroft is buried next to her. He died at age 17 of typhoid fever. I would like to request a photo if you live near by.

RE: Billy Ray Dunn
You are very welcome. I still have not finished photographing all of Cedarwood. In addition, there are many unmarked graves there. And some stones are covered and I don't catch that as I walk by. So keeping requesting photos and if I have them, I will answer your requests. I have about 5000 photos to put online so, if you have requests, I will answer them faster, if I found the monument. In the end I plan to look for all requests that I did not find photos for to determine whether the grave is unmarked or not and let folks know.

RE: Just wondering....
not sure I know most of my side was from NC and SC. My husband's mother was also a Dunn (not related to me) was also from NC. Of course I am sure they all started from other states or moved to other states. My great grandfather was James Bernard Dunn his dad was Wesley Dunn. I can find my great great great grandfather's name he married Charlotte Covington but can't find anymore on him. I can find Charlotte's linage but not his.

James Hardin Wood
I need the photo of the father James Harden Wood born 1899 and died 1956. This is not the right one. I know this is hard because they didn't use the right titles. I guess because the father dropped Sr so the child started using it, etc. But look at the dates and you will which one I'm needing the photo on. :) Thank you for trying though!

Future Clouds & RadarView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Masterminded in 2006 by former Cotton Mather frontman Robert Harrison, Future Clouds & Radar formulated a kind of eclectic, ecstatic indie pop sound that nodded to the psychedelic swirliness of XTC and the Beatles, the punchy soulfulness of Elvis Costello, and the good-natured brass and sparkle of the Starlight Mints. Rounded out by bassist Josh Gravelin, keyboardist Hollie Thomas, drummer Nina Singh, and vibraphonist/trumpeter Kullen Fuchs, the Austin-based group released its self-titled double-disc debut full-length in the spring of 2007. They followed it up with a more modest EP titled Peoria in the autumn of 2008. ~ Margaret Reges

Alcohol-Related Birth Defects Include: • • Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) which is characterized by 1. central nervous system problems 2. low birth weight and height 3. typical facial features Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) which result from maternal alcohol abuse but are found in the absence of the full-blown syndrome The facial features of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome are: • Small eyelid openings (palpebral fissures) • Short, upturned nose • Long upper lip (from nose to mouth) with a thin red border and a deficient central groove (philtrum) • Reduced size of the head (microcephaly) NORMAL FAS FAS ARBDs Full-blown fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) represents only the "tip of the iceberg" relative to all alcohol-related birth defects (ARBDs). MATERNAL ALCOHOL ABUSE IS THE LEADING KNOWN CAUSE OF MENTAL RETARDATION IN THE WESTERN WORLD Children with alcohol-related birth defects typically have: • • • • • attention deficits language difficulties learning disabilities impulsive behavior poor judgment PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE BRAIN, AFFECTING IMPORTANT STRUCTURES SUCH AS THE CEREBELLUM AND CORPUS CALLOSUM, AS WELL AS SPECIFIC CELL POPULATIONS IN MANY OTHER REGIONS OF THE BRAIN Whole brain Cross-section cerebral hemispheres corpus callosum cerebellum Visualization of the brain of a normal individual (A) and two with FAS (B,C) shows permanent loss of the tissue indicated by the arrows (portions of the corpus callosum).

Alcohol can cause malformations and brain abnormalities in embryos that are only three to four weeks old.

Cleft lip can also be caused by genetic or environmental agents other than alcohol. Alcohol also caused cleft lip in this mouse. By the ninth week of development the human fetus is about 24mm. long. Damage caused by alcohol to the brain at this time and until birth can result in abnormal brain function. Excessive alcohol exposure can cause damage during all stages of prenatal development. • Pre-implantation: first 2 weeks • Embryonic: 3-8 weeks after conception • Fetal: from week 9 until birth Alcohol can cause permanent damage to a baby before most women realize they are pregnant. Alcohol-related birth defects last a lifetime. Alcohol-related birth defects are expensive: • Monetarily — for treatment, care, and lost productivity. Costs are between $800,000 - $2 million over a lifetime for each individual with FAS. • Socially — relative to delinquency and to emotional drains on involved families. ??? How much is too much ??? How much alcohol is in a drink? 12 oz beer = 5 oz wine = shot of liquor in a mixed drink Each contains the same amount of alcohol WARNING Some drinks contain more than a "serving" of alcohol NO ONE KNOWS WHAT A "SAFE" AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION DURING PREGNANCY MAY BE. Health advisories urge women who are planning pregnancy or are pregnant not to drink alcohol. Despite warnings, frequent drinking among pregnant women appears to be increasing. Frequent drinking is defined as 7 or more drinks per week or 5 or more drinks on at least one occasion. ALCOHOL-RELATED BIRTH DEFECTS ARE PREVENTABLE

Draw me closer to You Jesus. Draw me into Your heart… let me be utterly consumed. I cannot be apart from You or I die. You, and You alone, are life. Draw me ever deeper into the ever-increasing brightness of Your glory. Purify every single part of me with Your cleansing light. Let Your Truth demolish every lie in my life. No matter what the pain, mold me into what You will and strengthen me in the fire. I trust You and know You will do nothing to harm me.
But no matter what, God, draw me closer, deeper, nearer to You. I cannot live without You.
Recently I've been so afraid of falling away from God's heart. Afraid that, in my pursuit of Him, I'd somehow miss Him completely. But I know that His grace is strong enough to keep me in it. I trust Him to protect me from pride and lies dressed as truth. I trust Him; He is stronger.

wikiHow to Become a NYC Fire Safety Director
All office and hotel buildings in NYC need to have a Fire Safety Director. The average salary of an FSD is $58,000. Find out how to become one.
1First you should see if you qualify to become one. These are the requirements that need to be met. To qualify you must be at least 18 years old, you must understand to a reasonable extent the English language. You must have 5 years of applicable experience in fire prevention, building service equipment, or a combination of both, or 3 years of experience under the discretion of the FDNY (examples: Fire Guard, Building Engineers, Security if you had fire brigade duties, Managers with fire brigade duties)
2If you qualify, you then have to take a Fire Safety Director course by a FDNY accredited school and pass their exam. The course consist of 20 hours of instructional training and 2 hours of hands-on demonstrations.
3After completing and passing the school you then can take the FDNY written test (which you get two chances to pass) with a minimum score of 70%. This is a 100 question multiple choice test. Once you pass this test you receive a certificate of completion and you are able to work as a Fire Safety Director in a building until the completion of the next step.
4After passing your written test, take and pass an on-site which is a test administered by the FDNY at the location where you are to become a fire safety director. This test must be taken within a year of taking the written test at the FDNY location. If you fail to take the test within a year you must take the FDNY written test once again.
- After completing the previous step, you will receive your certificate of fitness in the mail and you are allowed to work as a FSD,and can work as a FSD in more than one location if you complete the onsite test for each location.
Community Q&A
Do I have to make an appointment at Metro Tech for my written test?wikiHow ContributorNo, you can walk in between the hours of 8AM and 2:30PM. Make sure you have a letter of recommendation from your current place of work, though.
How much does this training cost?wikiHow ContributorPace University has classes for weekdays and weekends; it's $220 for the course, then when you go to Metro Tech, you pay $25 for the written exam.
How do I pass a FSD on site?wikiHow ContributorMostly study the F58 study guide on how to direct the FDNY to certain places. It'll be like telling them exactly where to find the fire pump, fire floor, etc.
Unanswered Questions
How much does the training cost?
Can I get training to become a NYC Fire Safety Director outside of New York?
Are there any age restrictions on taking the test for a director of safety?

EUR/JPY: technical levels
EUR/JPY has stabilized in the 132.00/130.00 in the past week, though the bias is to the downside.
There's divergence on the daily MACD and RSI: the indicators didn't confirm May 22 maximum at 133.80. There's a descending resistance line from this high which is capping the prices.
A sustainable break below 130.00 might bring the pair down to 129.00, 128.40 (200-month MA), 127.70 (February high), 127.00. Until 130.00 holds, the near-term outlook will be neutral. Resistance is at 131.66 (100-month MA), 132.00 and 133.80.

Song Parodies: Author Challenge!
Twisting the lyrics of well known songs to become some truly horrific (and hilarious) parodies.

There's very little in the way of rules, but PLEASE keep it clean. Well, clean-ish I should say. Feel free to have some fun with it, but please refrain from any serious dirty stuff.

As Seen In: Facebook's Headquarters
On Monday, CNet.com published an article on Facebook's security team. We're sure the article was interesting and all, but we couldn't get past the image of the security team sitting in their conference room. Whose got the backs of the Facebook security team, keeping them safe from dark forces? None other than Super Mario Bros by Blik. Who else?!
