Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Research results on the effects of N management on corn (Zea mays L.) grain production in high-yielding cropping systems are widely available, but information on its effects on cellulosic ethanol potential from corn stover and cobs is limited. Stover and cob biomass and respective ethanol yields all increased as N fertilizer rate increased. However, the magnitude of their responses and their interaction with tillage system were dependent on the plant fraction. In general, the responses of stover characteristics were often more responsive than cobs. The results suggest that stover ethanol yield, which is the dominant fraction of total cellulosic ethanol, can be maximized at N fertilizer rates that are less than the economically optimum N rates (EONR) for grain yield. This is important because N fertilizer rates will not require adjustment to maximize theoretical cellulosic ethanol yield on an aerial basis. While cob ethanol yield may not be consistently maximized at the EONRs for grain yield, any potential losses should be relatively minor.

CSU Indoor Track
Feb. 17, 2010
By Mallory Mortvedt
Athletic Media Relations
FORT COLLINS, Colo.—The Colorado State indoor track and field team will make its second trip of the season to the University of Wyoming to compete in the Shine Invitational, while a pole vaulter heads to Golden, Colo., to compete in the Twilight Invite hosted by the Colorado School of Mines.
The Rams will open action Friday at Wyoming, and will compete against several teams including Air Force and Boise State.
"We're only sending a couple athletes down to Mines, and I'm taking some of the younger throwers to Wyoming," said Head Coach Brian Bedard. "We're really just getting a final conference tune-up in, but most of the team is going to rest this weekend."
The lone Ram competing at the Twilight Invite is pole vaulter Kirk Cooper, while the men competing at Wyoming include Brandon Haynes, Tyson Williams, Cameron Carter, Carson Rowley, Alec Pott, Jack White and Weston Richburg in the shot put; and Williams, Carter, Rowley and Pott in the weight throw.
Most of the Rams will be resting this weekend as they prepare for the Mountain West Conference championships that will be held next weekend.

This weekend, the Tennessee men's golf team heads to Williamsburg, Va., to compete in the C&F Bank Intercollegiate, beginning on Sunday, March 24.
The C&F Bank Intercollegiate is a three day, 54-hole tournament, hosted by William and Mary at the Kingsmill Resort. The River Course at Kingsmill Resort was designed by famed golf architect Pete Dye, and is bordered by the James River. The par-71 course was named a Top Ten Virginia course destination by Golfweek Magazine.
Head coach Jim Kelson will go with a starting lineup of Oliver Goss, Jay Vandeventer, Thomas Dunne, Rick Lamb and Brandon Rodgers.
Rodgers is looking to continue his hot streak after capturing the first individual championship of his career at the Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate. Similarly, Goss is looking to build off the momentum gained from his first career individual championship at the General Hackler Championship on March 12.
The No. 23 Volunteers will join an extremely large field of 32 teams for the 36th edition of the tournament. The rest of the field includes: Appalachian State, Binghamton, Boston College, Bowling Green, Bucknell, Drake, Eastern Kentucky, Eastern Michigan, Florida State, George Mason, Georgetown, High Point, IPFW, James Madison, Longwood, Loyola (Md.), Marquette, Michigan, Mount St. Mary's, Notre Dame, Radford, Richmond, Rutgers, St. Joseph's, St. Peter's, Toledo, Towson, UNC Greensboro, Wright State, Xavier and William and Mary (host).
The first round of play is set to begin Sunday morning, with the first tee times scheduled for 7:30 a.m. ET. The Vols will be teeing off at 8:35 a.m. ET and will be playing with Richmond, UNC Greensboro and Georgetown. The tournament will be scored using the five-count-four format, where only the top-four scores from each five-man team will be counted toward the team total.
The tournament action can be found HERE or by following the Tennessee men's golf team on Twitter @Vol_Golf.


text: Ready to put the roof skin back on. I have been able to get the Black stuff off from the immediate edge (at least 2 to 3 inches all the way around) of the opening for the vent (fantastic fan waiting for installation) but there is still another several inches of black stuff in all directions. My questions is -will I do less trauma to the roof leaving it alone (though very ugly) or am I better off taking some extreme measure to get the rest off. The stuff that is left is really stuck hard. I did raise the center area where the vent is so in the future there shouldn't be any standing water to worry about. What is everyones experience and best advice - thanks Jon

Following the Spartans' victory Jan. 25 on OSU's home court, Izzo cited injured Buckeye David Lighty as one of the chief reasons why his team was able to control the glass and earn the victory against the Buckeyes.
"Ohio State right now is short a guy, and one guy can make a big difference," Izzo said. "I thought guys missed some shots late and maybe their legs were gone. When Lighty comes back that team will add a lot."
MSU's Raymar Morgan was limited to 21 minutes and took just four shots from the field as he continues to battle his way back from being sick, Izzo said. After mentioning how much Morgan's absence has affected his team, Izzo put it in perspective when compared to what Matta and the Buckeyes are enduring.
"I'm complaining about Raymar not being able to go much and here Lighty's out," he said. "I know what that's like too because I've been there before. I'd say we have a little more depth and that depth but mark my words this is going to be a good Ohio State team before it's over if Lighty can come back and play the amount of minutes I think he'll be able to play."
His reaction to the situation was slightly different than Matta's. While Lighty has been sidelined since suffering a fractured foot during a Dec. 17 victory against Iona, the OSU head man has remained mum on his junior forward's status.
That has not stopped him from simultaneously wishing for his return and an end to the questions about his return. After describing how Lighty provided textbook defense on the final play of the game in OSU's win against Butler on Dec. 13 during a Jan. 16 press conference, Matta ended the anecdote on a down note.
"Can we stop talking about him?" Matta said. "That play gets me excited."
The question is when – or if – Lighty will be able to return to action this season. After suffering the fractured foot, Lighty's prognosis was that he could potentially return to action in six to 12 weeks. Following the loss to the Spartans, Matta said his most battle-tested player was due to have another X-ray Jan. 30. From there, the Buckeyes will be able to project how his recovery is progressing.
Asked if Lighty's absence was hovering in the back of his mind, Matta laughed.
"It's not in the back, it's in the front," he said. "I'm not making excuses. Injuries happen. I stopped wanting to talk about that a couple weeks ago, to be honest. Those things do happen.
"I remember last year in here with about four minutes to go in the game Dave gave up an offensive rebound and I called him over and had a nice talk with him and he got two more of the next rebounds. That's who he is."
From his power forward spot, Lighty had a number of key responsibilities in the team's zone defense that stretched from closing out on shooters in the corners to manning up against centers in the post.
With Lighty in the lineup, teams were shooting 36.6 percent (136 for 372) from the floor against the Buckeyes. Without him, OSU's opponents are shooting 41.8 percent (258 for 617) from the field.
"Dave helps that back line back there a lot and also it keeps us a little bigger with Evan on the wing spot," Matta said. "The guys we've got out there have to do a better job."
One of the players tasked with a bigger role in Lighty's absence is freshman center B.J. Mullens, who has seen both his production and his playing time increase with Lighty on the shelf. From his perch near the end of the bench, Lighty has been providing his teammates with pointers and advice since going down with the injury.
"It's a lot different, having that seniority not out there," Mullens said. "He knows where to be at and he knows what to tell you. We don't have that out there now. We can listen to him on the bench and hopefully we go out and do the right thing. It's better when he's out there playing with us. It's a big help. That's a gap on our team right now but we're filling it."
In an interview with ESPN, Lighty said he planned to start doing some limited footwork in the two weeks leading up to his Jan. 30th X-ray. However, Matta said that was more wishful thinking than anything else, adding that he had not done any running since undergoing surgery.
"Dave's calendar and the doctor's calendars probably don't go hand in hand," Matta said with a laugh.

Our customer reviews for Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom
Reviews collected from customers who booked on AccorHotels.com
The hotel is located across the Channel in Leopoldstadt, only 10 minutes walking distance from Stephansdom, which makes it very comfortable. The rooms are modern and big, the style is a matter of taste. We had all in grey, which we did not like so much, however the facilities and features are really great. The highlight was certainly the view over the city center and Stephansdom. Worth mentioning is the service and friendly staff- really extraordinary. The restaurants and breakfast were not on our agenda, however the bar on the top floor is cool and crowded. All in all a great, pleasant experience in wonderful Vienna, which we for sure will repeat.
Dear Martin, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom. It is always a pleasure to receive such positive feedback. I am particularly proud of your nice words regarding our friendly staff and I will share your comments with them, as this is the best motivation. I regret to read that the design of the grey Luxury room didn't entirely suit your taste. The French star architect Jean Nouvel wanted to forgo colorful elements and unnecessary ornaments which would distract from the spectacular view of Vienna. For your next visit at Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom I recommend on of our white Superior rooms or Junior Suites which are a completely different experience. We would be happy to assist you with your next booking and hope to welcome you back very soon with us. Kind regards, Alexander Moj General Manager
Hotel in great location,staff very friendly an warming, unfortunately found rooms in great need of updating they all white but unfortunately you could see the marks from floor to ceiling, bath very difficult to access in and out could not see a less able body person using it,have stayed in Sofitel hotels on number of occasions and sorry to say this will be are last for what you pay really don't see value for money.
Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback about your visit in our hotel. I'm sorry to read that your stay with us did not fully meet your expectations. Indeed, we are currently experiencing some traces of wear and tear in the rooms. I would like to apologize for the inconveniences this may have caused you. Our Housekeeping Team as well as our Technical Department are daily working to keep our rooms in a best state as possible. In Summer 2017 we are planning a major room-renovation where some of the issues you mentioned will be addressed and solved. We are happy that our team provided you with a friendly and helpful service. I hope that we will be able to welcome you back with us. Best regards Alexander Moj General Manager
I have a severe allergy and sinus problem and always have trouble when staying at hotels. This Sofitel was the first exception. Not only is the bed hypoallergenic type but the whole room also. No curtains nor carpets and very comfy bed. Service and staff friendliness are unmatched and they go the extra mile to help. One downside though and it is the food. Otherwise best hotel I ever experienced in terms of comfort, sleep and help.
I had one of the most unpleasant dining experiences of my life at the much-advertised Das Loft restaurant. My waiter blatantly tried to pressure me into spending more money. First he only brought me the tasting menu. I had to ask to see the full menu. After I ordered, he said, "Wouldn't you like to add another course?" And so on. It really ruined the whole experience for me. I went to the spa 15 minutes before closing. The staff looked very anxious that I might actually go in. The only staff at the hotel who were genuinely attentive and helpful were at the front desk, and even they pushed signing up for the rewards program too aggressively. (A simple "no thank you" wasn't sufficient.) As for the room, the decor looked like the drabbest Ikea showroom I've ever seen. The floors were bare concrete, painted gray, and there were white particle board cabinets everywhere. No color.
Dear Guest, Thank you for your comment, we take your feedback very seriously. First, concerning your restaurant experiences, I truly regret that you received an inappropriate service and I would like to assure you that is not the standard we set for our restaurant. According measures within the team were taken in order to avoid a similar incident in the future. I truly apologize for all the inconveniences this might have caused you. Furthermore, I understand that the interior décor was not to your liking. The French architect Jean Nouvel created a unique design concept in our hotel. The rooms are minimalistic and designed in a threefold color scheme: grey white and black. The idea behind this sober interior is that nothing should distract from the stunning views of Vienna. The architect invites Vienna into the hotel room and the focus should be on the this extraordinary city. I am sorry that you did not feel comfortable in this minimalistic design environment. I understand that you were disappointed with your stay and I still hope to welcome you back so that we can convince you of our high standard and services. Kind regards from Vienna, Alexander Moj
The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are spacious. Staff friendly and very helpful. Location perfect, especially being across the finest ice cream place in Vienna! Breakfast is excellent; large buffet with great French bread and pastries.
Dear Guest, Thank you for choosing the Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom and your positive review. I am delighted to read that you enjoyed our your stay and benefited from the central location of our hotel. I will forward your kind words with pleasure to our Ambassadors. We are very much looking forward to welcoming you back again in the future. With warm regards from Vienna, Alexander Moj

Please, be patient. I believe most of the presentations (certainly all the ones
given by WRI folk...but I'm not 100% certain about the others) will be available
eventually. But the company is firing all pistons at the moment on getting
ready for the imminent Mathematica 8.0 release.
We're not keeping any secrets. We're just a little preoccupied right now.

37 year old man | Mission Valley, CA, United States | Seeking women 29-35 within 20 miles
You're driving down the street and before you...
You're driving down the street and before you know it, you've hit 88 miles per hour. Crazy flashes and loud bangs echo for miles. All of a sudden, you're transported somewhere else in time. Guess what? You're with me and the two of us just took a joyride in Doc Brown's DeLorean. My friends best describe me as intelligent, outgoing, and devastatingly handsome…like the Sausage King of Chicago. I love to laugh and creativity fuels my fire. I'm passionate about my career in Audio Visual sales for live events. The art of selling can be shady, but it can also be quite bright. I use my talents for good and help create stunning events that provide education, entertainment, and in some cases inspiration. I work hard, but I do believe in balance and I understand that my career is only 1 piece of a much larger puzzle. I'm close with my family, not in proximity, but in 'heart'. They're all still living back east in the great state of New Jersey. All things considered, we're a pretty normal family. My parents have been together for 40+ years, my brother and his wife have two small kids and I'm the wild card. I'm the one who decided to move out west for the gold rush. I have no regrets because I love it out here. I try to be active and I'd love to do more. I'm always game for an adventure and a gentle nudge or wink of the eye can get me to hop out of a plane at 30,000 feet or scuba dive off the coast of the Seychelles. So what am I looking for in a woman? A woman with wit, a fulfilling career and someone who loves to laugh. Intelligence is hugely important and so is compassion. You don't have to be Mother Teresa, in fact, I don't want you to be her. I just don't want you to judge me if I steal a banana at an airport because the bar-code scanner can't read the sticker since it was placed on the inner curve. I'm not saying that happened, but I'm also not saying that it didn't. ;) Please message me if you think you might want to get to know me more.

As evidence mounts, will Boyles correct debunked leprosy falsehood?
Research ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF
National news reports debunking the false claim aired on 630 KHOW-AM host Peter Boyles' show that "7,000 cases of leprosy" occurred in the United States recently in three years prompt Colorado Media Matters to ask again: Will Boyles acknowledge and correct the false statement made on his program?
Major media reports debunking the falsehood broadcast by 630 KHOW-AM host Peter Boyles and his guest, Dr. Patricia Doyle, that the United States had experienced "7,000 cases of leprosy" in three years recently due to illegal immigration prompt the question: Will Boyles acknowledge the falsehood and correct it for his listeners?
On September 25, 2006, Colorado Media Matters cited figures from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to note the distortion of leprosy statistics on Boyles' September 20, 2006, broadcast. During a discussion about illegal immigrants "from around the world" who are coming to the United States "with diseases," Boyles allowed Doyle to claim without challenge that "[i]n three years, recently" the United States has "had 7,000 cases" of the disease. On the April 14, 2005, broadcast of CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight, reporter Christine Romans had made a similar distortion, stating, "There have been 7,000" cases of leprosy in the U.S. "in the past three years." As Media Matters for America noted, Romans repeated the faulty figure on Dobbs' May 7, 2007, show, and he defended her citation, telling Romans, "I stand 100 percent behind what you said."
Following a May 6 60 Minutes profile of Dobbs that questioned the veracity of the leprosy statistics reported on his show, David Leonhardt of The New York Times on May 30 further debunked the claims about cases of leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease, in his "Economix" column.
Leonhardt stated that he "called James L. Krahenbuhl, the director of the National Hansen's Disease Program, an arm of the federal government." Based on his conversation with Krahenbuhl, Leonhardt concluded that "the official leprosy statistics do show about 7,000 diagnosed cases -- but that's over the last 30 years, not the last three." (emphasis in original) Leonhardt continued:
The peak year was 1983, when there were 456 cases. After that, reported cases dropped steadily, falling to just 76 in 2000. Last year, there were 137.
"It is not a public health problem -- that's the bottom line," Mr. Krahenbuhl told me. "You've got a country of 300 million people. This is not something for the public to get alarmed about." Much about the disease remains unknown, but researchers think people get it through prolonged close contact with someone who already has it.
What about the increase over the last six years, to 137 cases from 76? Is that significant?
"No," Mr. Krahenbuhl said. It could be a statistical fluctuation, or it could be a result of better data collection in recent years. In any event, the 137 reported cases last year were fewer than in any year from 1975 to 1996.
Colorado Media Matters pointed out again on May 9 that government statistics contradict the "7,000 cases" claim. In fact, according to HHS, fewer than 200 cases of leprosy have been reported in the United States each year since 1995. The HHS website notes:
In the U.S., there are approximately 6,500 cases on the National Hansen's Disease Program Registry. This includes all cases reported since the registry began and who are still living.
Furthermore, a 2005 HHS graph showing reported new leprosy cases in the United States since 1976 indicated that the annual number of new cases has remained below 200 since 1995. The graph shows a total of 7,029 reported leprosy cases in the U.S. from 1976 through 2005.
Similarly, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated in a June 16, 2006, report ("Summary of Notifiable Diseases -- United States, 2004") that "[t]he number of reported cases of Hansen disease (HD) in the United States peaked at 361 in 1985 and has declined since 1988."
As of his May 30 broadcast, Boyles had yet to correct the false claim made on his show regarding the leprosy statistics.

We are proud to pass along more good news today at the Center for Investigative Reporting.
Our California Watch investigation produced in collaboration with KQED, "On Shaky Ground," was honored this morning with a rare, prestigious medal from Investigative Reporters and Editors.
The 19-month series detailed major regulatory shortcomings in the way the state protects children and teachers from seismic threats, and it has prompted sweeping reforms that will help make schools safer.
"Despite devastating cutbacks across the news business, investigative reporting is alive and well, and really making a difference in our society," Lea Thompson, contest committee co-chairwoman, said in a statement. "The judges not only saw superb digging, but also perseverance in the face of what often seemed insurmountable odds by large and small news organizations working in print, TV, radio and online."
The series earlier won a national Scripps Howard Award in the public service category.
IRE honored California Watch and KQED in the multi-platform reporting category and named Corey G. Johnson, Erica Perez, Kendall Taggart, Agustin Armendariz, Michael Montgomery, Anna Werner and Krissy Clark for their outstanding work.
The judges said:
"On Shaky Ground" was an extraordinary effort examining seismic safeguards in place to protect California's schoolchildren from earthquakes. Reporters dug through more than 30,000 pages of documents, created online maps and databases and visited schools throughout the state to get the story. It took 19 months, but the reporters found California officials abrogated their oversight duties and allowed more than 42,000 children to attend schools with serious safety issues. The project had astonishing breadth, depth and creativity. The stories were published in more than 150 news outlets and translated into four languages, and video segments appeared in every major California media market. California Watch created an iPhone app to show local residents their proximity to fault zones and even a coloring book explaining it all to schoolchildren. The hard work paid off: State lawmakers ordered audits and investigations, and new state standards were created to allow schools to more easily tap into a fund to repair seismic hazards.
Additionally, California Watch's series "Decoding Prime," about aggressive billing practices at a Southern California hospital chain, was also a finalist in the multi-platform category.

German Shepherd Dog Forums (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/)
- Agility (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/agility/)
- - Weave pole and teeter training (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/agility/466265-weave-pole-teeter-training.html)
Weave pole and teeter training
Hello, Zeph and I are exploring the world of Agility, we are doing great so far, we do jumps, go through tunnels, pause on a pause table, etc. We also have a teeter and some weave poles and we are struggling. The teeter he just keeps 'falling' off (he CAN get on it, he had done it several times) and the poles are a mystery to me. I have seen several videos on youtube and read a few things, but I just want to ask people who have GSD and understand the challenges (such as the fact that they are huge ;-) ) and see if anyone has a favorite video or link to help me with those two things. I have also looked at bowwowflicks, but at this time just can not afford it.
There are several methods people use for weave poles, such as channels, 2x2s, weave-o-matics, or a combination of the above. I have used channels and 2x2 and the 2x2 method is my favorite. You can get the DVD, I believe it's Susan Garret. You can't just watch the whole thing on YouTube unless it's pirated. You probably need to see the whole program or work with a trainer/class that uses the method you want to use.
You can watch the Susan Garret 2x2 weave pole dvd. I personally like that method the best but there are other methods that may work better for your dog. An experienced teacher may be better able to help you decide which one. As for the teeter, you really need to have someone help you with that. If your dog becomes afraid of the teeter then you will spend countless hours trying to correct that problem. Do you have any agility classes in your area you could try out?
nothing in our area, which is why we started our own club, but right now we are just 'playing' if we get serious we can probably find something within 2 hours, but it won't be a weekly thing. I will try to find the Susan Garret cd, thanks for the info
The 2x2 method is on YouTube as well - that is the most successful way I have found to teach my dogs the weaves.
For the teeter, I taught them first by holding the collar, walking them along the plank to find the balance point them teaching them to wait for the teeter to drop before going forward. I didn't stop "helping" them until they reliably demonstrated they were confident about finding the balance point, tipping the teeter and then exiting. I would do this as slowly as the dog needs. I would rather spend extra time going through something like this for the imprinting and have confident dogs who enter and exit the teeter quickly and confidently, then rush it and have to go back or have a dog refuse the teeter entirely.
YouTube is a great resource, also if you sign up with BowWow Flix, you can rent DVD's and return them when you are done - WAY cheaper than buying them all and because I am isolated this totally works for me :)
For the teeter I use a long board that is about as wide as the teeter and start with it flat on the floor. Rewarding as soon as a foot touches it, then moving on to two feet etc.
The teeter is narrow and has all that movement. I like teaching that the pup is in charge of the movement and in control. Have you heard of the teeter game (bang game)?
Treats ON THE GROUND when teaching dogwalk/teeter/aframe and the 2on/2off
Hoping you KNOW you should be using a clicker too.. so much easier and clearer for our dogs to learn all the initial agility skills.
I prefer using the channel method for weavepole training.
Please remember in ALL agility your main goal is NOT for them to do it right initially (or ever). Instead it's about them ALWAYS thinking agility is...
So whatever you need to do have them doing the training FAST and fun is what you should be thinking about. That should be our mental picture. So you make it easy in the beginning, progress and make it harder only AS THE DOG is ready
WE NEED TO LEARN TO USE A CLICKER so the dog gets the information they need when they need it.
Hey, I'm in Colorado too! :) 2 hours away from you though. :P But I'd be happy to help you with what I can, will PM you.
My preferred method for teaching the weaves is starting with channels and getting the dog to 12 poles with that. It gets you speed right off the bat, and it helps the dog develop good footwork. Once the dog is weaving 12 poles, then I'll go to 2x2s or even 3 or 4 poles to work on entries.
These are my dogs. Ryker (the bi-color) was actually started on 2x2s and I got him to six poles with that, then went to a channel to get 12 poles. I'm pretty sure his weaving speed and ability would be the same if I had started him on just channels. We occasionally revisit 3 poles for entry work, as he struggles with collecting for the entry (typical for a big fast dog). Solstice (the white shepherd) was trained entirely on channels, then with a bit of work on 2 or 3 poles for entries. She is not as fast as Ryker but that's just the way the my dogs are.
As for the teeter, you say your dog can do the teeter but is "falling" off. Is he falling off because he simply isn't aware of his body and losing his footing (common for many dogs, but especially big ones like ours), or is he consistently jumping off at a certain point that he is nervous about?
If it's the first one, then you need to be doing body awareness exercises. Perch work, foot targeting, walking backwards on the ground, walking backwards up stairs, walking through a ladder on the ground, etc.
If he's actually jumping off the teeter because he's nervous, then the solution would be different. Definitely check out the bang game that MRL posted. I use to use an adjustable teeter for teeter training, but am gravitating more towards the two table method. You can have success with either method though.
I disagree with the clicker comments. Yes clickers are helpful and great, but you don't NEED a clicker. If you're already using one, great. With clickers, proper application and timing is super important, because if you're clicking the wrong thing you're certainly not making progress with that either.
thanks for all the replys! I would say 1) he is falling off due to not knowing where his body his, he has successfully made it to the tipping point once or twice and the movement didn't scare him or rattle him in the least, but keeping his feet on seems to be the problem. I truly believe he has 'some' vision problems (or maybe hearing) but not enough for me to worry about it (he occasionally smacks his head into things, or looks off to the side when wanting his food, but can see to play fetch, jump over jumps perfectly, etc) he almost acts like the scarecrow from the wizard of oz, all awkward angles
we have tried on and off to use the clicker, it's more me than him, he is toy and treat motivated, so I have been using those mainly
he LOVES jumping and the tunnel is his ultimate favorite, we have a hard time setting it up, both him and his 'girlyfriend' (don't worry, both fixed ;-) ) run through it while we are trying to move it, stake it down LOL.
this will take some time, but the change in his attitude while inside is amazing, he is nice and calm now, I was wondering if that would ever happen!
TwoBigEars, I tried to watch your videos but they said they were private

Help with StyleSheets
I'm working with Mathematica 6, and I'm having trouble working with
StyleSheets. What I'm looking to do is to change the formatting of the
"Input" style.
Here's what I did:
1. Open a new Notebook.
2. Format > Edit StyleSheet
3. Choose a Style to Modify > Input
4. Make sure the Input cell is selected and go to: Format > Font
5. Make the appropriate changes.
After I did that, the appropriate sections in the Untitled-1 notebook
changed to reflect the size and bold/normal status, but that's it. The font
itself didn't change.
What did I miss?

"ting-a-ling," answered Silverfloss, and it sounded like the tinkling of a little silver bell.
When ting-a-ling heard this, he was disheartened, and hung his little head.
There, in the lighted room, ting-a-ling beheld a sight which greatly moved him.
This Giant, it will be remembered, was our old acquaintance, and the friend of ting-a-ling.
They were going down a grassy hill, and had just reached the bottom, when ting-a-ling heard some one calling him.
ting-a-ling stood in the middle of the bed and looked about him.
So ting-a-ling thought that as the King was putting on his war boots, something very great was surely about to happen.
Hit would go ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling and I can see 'em now stirrin in Carolina.
The front-door bell was constantly going ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling!
ting-a-ling—ling—ling—ling, chirped the bell right in his face.

Knoxville, Tenn. - Josh Sullivan's fourth home run of the season leading off the ninth lifted the No. 13 Auburn Tigers to a 4-3 victory over the No. 12 Tennessee Volunteers in the first of three games at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. Saturday's game will be televised by CSS at 7 p.m. ET.
It was Sullivan's night, as he tied the game at 3-3 in the sixth with a two-run double to left after Josh Bell got the Tigers (19-5, 2-2 SEC) started by doubling home Sean Gamble who was hit by a pitch leading off the inning.
Tennessee (20-4, 2-2 SEC) built a 3-0 after four by plating single runs in the first, third and fourth innings. Chris Kemp singled home Eric King who reached on an error and took third on Kyle Norrid's hit in the first. Chase Headley reached on a two-out double in the third and scored on Nick Crowe's single up the middle for a 2-0 lead, while the Vols took advantage of starter Mike Felix's wildness as they extended the lead in the fourth after Michael Rivera scored on his fourth wild pitch of the night.
The Auburn relief corps saved the day by hurling four shutout innings against Tennessee, limiting it to two hits. Cory Deuitt (3-1) earned the win after pitching a scoreless eighth, while Steven Register retired the Vols in the ninth with two strikeouts for his sixth save.
Patrick Hicklen (2-1) took the loss in relief of starter Derek Tharpe who struck out seven in seven innings.
Josh Alley and Kemp led the Vols with two hits.

The lodge appeared in its clearing, silhouetted in the moonlight.
The carnage complete, the killers shouldered their Kalashnikovs, extinguished their headlamps, and receded into the moonlight.
Throne of my lonely niche, my wealth, my love, my moonlight.
As for his first name, Oliver, it meant "sky-lantern," moonlight as a hindrance to crime.
In the film version, entitled Ill Met by moonlight, Paddy was played by the dashing Dirk Bogarde.
Hugh Ritson stepped out of the moonlight and went behind his brother.
In the moonlight he could plainly distinguish the forms of the soldiers.
It is in vain to attempt describing what the moonlight is like.
"These are better," she answered, looking down at him, as he sat there in the moonlight.
The moonlight gave to the surface of the quiet water, the tint of pearls.
"hold a second job, especially at night," 1957 (implied in moonlighting), from moonlighter (1954), from the notion of working by the light of the moon; see moonlight (n.). Related: Moonlighting. Earlier the word had been used to mean "commit crimes at night" (1882).
To work at a job in addition to one's regular job: a million guys moonlighting, holding a little back (1957+)

O.K. I was trying to upgrade my pitching because of the loss of the Big Unit until probably mid-June.
Was offered SP Randy Wolf for SP Kris Benson and 2b/3b D'Angelo Jimenez. Is this a good trade for me?
Also, someone in my league just dropped SP Joel Pineiro. Do you think I should drop Ortiz and pick up Pineiro?
If I make the 2/1 trade above, I could pick up Pineiro without dropping anyone, would that be good. I'd essentially be getting Randy Wolf and Joel Pineiro for Kris Benson and D'Angelo Jimenez. That seems like a good trade to me.
What do you guys think I should do?

Trust Law Advisory Service
What do you do when your client brings you a matter which is outside your usual area of practice?
Your client trusts you and wants you to act but doesn't recognise how difficult it is to cover all areas of law or the professional indemnity risks involved. You don't want to let them down or lose the business.
Should you take it on? What are the risks? Should you suggest that your client looks elsewhere for advice? If so, where? And will they come back? We can help.
Pagan Osborne offers assistance to Scottish law firms requiring access to specialist advice through our Trust Law Advisory Service. Our specialist advisors have a wealth of experience in the creation and administration of Trusts.
In the current difficult economic climate, clients are probably turning to you more than ever before for advice and assistance on how best to protect their wealth for future generations. Trusts can provide flexible solutions to many family issues and can, therefore, be used in a number of ways, for example, to protect the wealth of young children until they are old enough to manage it themselves; as an educational Trust for grandchildren; or to help maintain the stability and business continuity needed by a family business in the event of a family member's death.
However, the needs of clients in this area are often complex, involving personal, charitable and business matters. Our services are tailored to individual needs and draw on all our expertise. This will include advising on the purposes of the Trust, who the trustees will be, how long the Trust should run and on keys dates for making future decisions and how and when to wind it up.
Trusts can be viewed as tax saving devices and, as a matter of course, we can offer advice on gifting and tax reliefs and are used to negotiating valuations with HMRC.
For more details about this scheme or to discuss a particular case please contact our Trust specialist Tessa Till on 0131 624 6814.
The Advantages to you...
• You have immediate access to specialist advice and assistance
• You and your client are in control and set the rules
• You retain the principal contact with your clients, avoiding them seeking advice elsewhere
• Your clients are impressed that you have identified the need for and have access to specialist advice
• You introduce your clients to a firm that places real value on the client experience
• You reduce your exposure to professional indemnity claims
How the service works
We will discuss with you at the outset how we could assist in any particular case. There are various possibilities such as:
• Providing a second opinion
• Taking on the whole matter
• Providing advice on specific aspects while you continue to deal with the majority of the matter
• Advising "out of sight" while you continue to front the matter. It is for you to decide the level of our involvement in each case
We will agree feeing arrangements with you and how we will communicate with your client (if at all).
We will not undertake work for your clients which you would normally carry out for them or which is within your normal area of practice.
We will not "poach" your clients. This service works because we build relationships with you and other firms who like to have our backup. We respect your relationships with your clients and will not disturb those.

Harry Styles has won the hearts of many a teenage fan, but the One Direction heartthrob was gifted with an award of slightly lesser value on Thursday.

"Thank you to NME for my award tonight. Gotta take the rough with the smooth eh?" he Tweeted on Thursday night.
Harry, who was most recently linked to Taylor Swift, beat out Skrillex, Psy, and British prime minister David Cameron (who makes a cameo in One Direction's "One Way or Another" video) for the not-so-coveted award.
In addition to Harry's Villain award, One Direction was also named Worst Band at the NME Awards (beating Justin Bieber, Mumford & Sons and Muse, among others).

DURHAM, N.C. -- Junior lefthander Bryan Radziewski was among those named to the USA Baseball midseason watch list for the 2013 Golden Spikes Award, honoring the top amateur baseball player in the country.
Radziewski, who ranks first on the Hurricanes and second among all pitchers in the Atlantic Coast Conference with a 0.95 ERA, owns a 7-1 record through his first nine starts of the season. The former Baseball America Freshman All-American has held opposing hitters to a paltry .148 average, the lowest mark of any hurler in the ACC, and boasts a 73-to-16 strikeout-to-walk ratio.
In 56.2 innings this season, Radziewski has allowed just six earned runs. He ranks among the top pitchers in the conference in nearly every statistical category, including ERA (0.95, second), wins (seven, fourth), strikeouts (73, fifth) and complete games (two, second).
His 16 strikeouts in a complete game win over Virginia Tech (March 23), which earned him ACC Pitcher of the Week honors, came just three shy of the single-game conference record.
Since 1978, USA Baseball has honored the top amateur baseball player in the country with the Golden Spikes Award. Following the first-ever presentation of the Award to Bob Horner of Arizona State, the Golden Spikes Award has been presented each year to the player who exhibits exceptional athletic ability and exemplary sportsmanship.
Past winners of this prestigious award include current Major League Baseball players such as Bryce Harper ('10), Stephen Strasburg ('09), Buster Posey ('08), David Price ('07), Tim Lincecum ('06), Alex Gordon ('05), Jered Weaver ('04), Rickie Weeks ('03) and Mark Kotsay ('95).
The Golden Spikes Award trophy will be awarded live on MLB Network for the third year in a row, with a live presentation scheduled during The Rundown on Friday, July 19. Through USA Baseball's partnership with MLB Advanced Media (MLBAM), the presentation will also be simulcast with a live stream available from GoldenSpikesAward.com and USABaseball.com.

This is a discussion on My wife surprised me within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; No signs that I know of here.. ... The other day my son and I went to see GI Joe,. Well there was one point ...
No signs that I know of here.. ... The other day my son and I went to see GI Joe,. Well there was one point when that little bugger started getting itchy with all the gun fire going on on the screen.. I had to calm it down before it jumped out of the holster by itself and started joining in,.. Ya know them dangerous guns,. They just have a mind of there own... LOL..
I'm not sure if I would go to the theater if they had signs,.. Hmmm....
Good for you, and keep working on your wife's views when you get the chance.
When I met my wife, she'd just voted for John Kerry, and even though she grew up with and was used to firearms, she was somewhat liberal in her thinking.
Now she's a registered Republican (for lack of a better party, and she wants to be involved in the primaries so doesn't go independent), has her Arizona CCW permit, and thinks like I do for the most part.
And me? I'm about as conservative minded as they come.

UF Startup Turns to Crowdfunding with $1 Million Goal
ALACHUA, Fla. -- A University of Florida startup is launching a crowdfunding campaign for what could be a revolutionary invention for diabetics.
Prometheon Pharma, LLC is a company at the award-winning Sid Martin Biotechnology Incubator developing a painless, convenient way of taking medicines that currently require painfulneedles.
It's called The TruePatchTM, and it could be life changing for people living with diabetes - which often requires insulin injections to manage.
Stephen Hsu, MD, PhD, a clinical scientist and nephrologist by training, says it took him less than a second to decide what medication they would focus on initially.
"[Diabetes] is a global problem in developed and developing countries," Dr. Hsu says.
Insulin injections, and the needles used to deliver them, have remained largely unchanged for almost a century. It's that delivery method company founder Dr. Hsu set out to change.
"Any product we produce should be simple, sustainable and scalable," he says, "And so it has to be something simple; simple is actually very sophisticated and hard to do."
For the past several years, Prometheon Pharma has filed patents, sought out funding, and developed their idea of a needle-free patch.
"These kind of companies have long childhoods," Sid Martin Biotechnology Incubator Director Patti Breedlove explains, "They need a lot of money for many years to get their products to market, so they're always looking for new sources of funding."
In fact, they've turned to crowd funding site Indiegogo for help getting started.
"This is really as much an awareness campaign as it is a funding campaign," Director of Business Development Devon Grimme says, "If everyone that this affected made a donation, we'd have the funding tomorrow."
The #NoPricks campaign launched this week; they have less than 40 days to raise $1 million.
Much of the money will allow for large animal studies required by the FDA to apply for human trials. Dr. Hsu says they're starting with insulin, but this concept could be applied to many other drugs.
"If you can use a band-aid, you can use a patch, we want to make it that simple," he says.
To donate, visit their Indiegogo page here. For more information visit their website NoPricks.com, and follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

Snowboarding Forum - Snowboard Enthusiast Forums (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/forum.php)
- Boards (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/boards/)
- - help narrowing down my freeride board list (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/boards/53114-help-narrowing-down-my-freeride-board.html)
help narrowing down my freeride board list
Hi all,
Hoping for some recommendations for a new board. I only ride a half a dozen times a year, and I'm on a pretty tight budget so I don't want/need the best of the best, but I'm tired of riding a piece of crap. I'm hoping to spend less than $225 for a board (I already have decent bindings/boots).
For my riding preference, I mainly stay out of the park and enjoy cruising the mountain. Occasionally I'll hit little kickers here and there, but I'm mostly in the powder or carving. I've technically been snowboarding for 10 years, but since I only go a few times a year, I am definitely not "advanced". Intermediate at best.
That being said, I've picked out a few boards based on the size I'm looking for (152 range) and my $225 budget. Based on my riding preference above, does anyone have any particular recommendations from the list below? I think a lot of these may be freestyle boards, but it's tough to tell because the website i'm using also lists them as "all mountain"... maybe a shameless selling point for people like me who don't know any better?
- Burton Twin
- Burton TWC Standard
- K2 Brigade
- K2 Playback
- Forum Manual
- Forum Scheme
- Ride Agenda
Suggestions from the list above? Thanks in advance.
If you want to browse a large selection of boards and get decent reviews on them, I would go to thegoodride.com. I used this when buying my first major board. Tip for saving money: Find 2 or 3 boards you really like. Then run some searches for the 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 models. These models will usually be pretty near identical to the newest model. They will also be much, much cheaper. That website also tells you about any major recent changes in the board models in the reviews.
Happy Hunting
anyone else have any input?
152 for freeride and powder? how big are you where do you ride. what have you rode before what did you like what did you not like. $225 budget you might look at used boards, get a little more bang for your buck, maybe here or geartrade.com. play it again in my area have good deals. craiglist seattle is full of deals
I'm on the east coast, in Maine, so some pretty icy terrain at times.
I've previously used crappy rentals so I don't really have a good basis to compare what I liked/didn't like about previous boards - to be honest I couldn't even tell you if they were freestyle boards, or freeride, etc. This is the first year where I am going out of my way to make sure I have semi-decent gear... no rentals! That being said, I don't need top of the line stuff, just something decent, ya know?
And I think you're right about looking at used boards for my budget... I've looked around on the local Craigslist (at literally every listing, actually), but there isn't really a ton of choices... And thus far, everyone's been insanely unreliable from Craigslist... not returning phone calls/emails, or having no clue what they're selling (literally not knowing the model, or too lazy to check - must not want my $ too bad!). I'll keep on it though!
OP, you have some good boards in your list. I personally have rode the Ride Agenda and was not too happy with it. I have a Ride Machete and a Ride DH, both AWESOME boards. It's really personal preference.
Bought a board yesterday, a Academy Propoganda. I were looking at the Forum Manual, but the manager in the shop called it shit quality. So I steered away. Someone love them, but alot hate them! :)
- Peter
btw bought the board for freestyle! :)
I just got a K2 Playback and I really like it. I've had 4 days on it so far this winter. It is completely flat, K2 calls it "Flatline Technology", which is a little unusually and you might find odd. I like it as its easy to initiate turns as you get a lot of edge. I'm an all mountain rider and it suits my style.
thanks guys
140 lbs and east coast terrain, a 152 to 154 will work. The flat boards from k2 are super stable and a good place start. Once you ride it for a while and feel confortable, borrow some buddies boards so you can learn what like and dont

Taco Bell to offer sweets as part of a snacks menu
NEW YORK -- Taco Bell wants to become destination for snack-starved younger people, not just a place to get burritos for lunch or dinner.
The Mexican-style chain plans to announce this week an expansion of its sweet treats menu, with the addition of churros and cookie sandwiches to its current lineup of cinnamon twists and caramel apple empanadas. And in coming weeks, it will beef up its offering of savory snacks with the introduction of its "loaded grillers," which are nachos, chicken or loaded baked potato wrapped in a tortilla.
There's a grand scheme behind the new menu additions; by early next year, Taco Bell plans to launch a "Happier Hour" TV ad campaign touting its snack offerings.
The move follows a broader trend in the fast-food industry, with companies trying to find new ways to attract customers at all hours of the day. McDonald's, for example, has seen great success in recent years in large part because of the introduction of its specialty coffee drinks in 2009 and fruit smoothies in 2010. Burger King followed suit this year with its own specialty coffees and smoothies, and Wendy's is testing specialty coffees in select markets.
Attracting customers to restaurants during those between-meal hours has become a critical way to drive sales, because chains have to pay for fixed costs such as electricity and labor anyway. The strategy is particularly relevant for Taco Bell because its younger customer base tends to snack around the clock, said Brian Niccol, Taco Bell's chief marketing officer.
"They are on a timeless eating schedule," he said.
Earlier this year, the company also began testing a breakfast menu in select markets. Taco Bell says the breakfast menu - which it refers to as "FirstMeal" -could go national by 2014. It already touts a "FourthMeal" for those craving a late-night hit of junk food.
For now, Niccol said customers are ordering the cinnamon twists and caramel apple empanadas more as desserts to go with meals. But by early next year, Niccol said the sweet treats will be marketed as snacks for any time of day, perhaps to go along with one of its specialty drinks.
The more aggressive courtship of junk food-loving younger people comes even as Taco Bell also seeks to expand its customer base with it higher-end Cantina Bell bowls and burritos, which executives have said bring in more women. In the third quarter, Taco Bell said the new Cantina Bell items helped lift sales at restaurants open at least a year by 7 percent.
Without naming Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., Yum Brands Inc. President Richard Carucci said in a conference call with investors last month that fast casual chains taught the company an important lesson - that people are willing to spend more money for higher-quality food if it can be delivered quickly and conveniently.
As such, Taco Bell will also announce plans to extend its Cantina Bell line, with a test of a steak quesadilla for $4.99 in Charlotte, N.C.
For its core menu, it will launch "XXL Steak Nachos" for $5.99. In Dayton, Ohio, it will start testing a "smothered burrito" with red sauce that will cost $2.99 for beef, or $3.99 for chicken or steak.
Taco Bell is owned by Yum Brands Inc., which also owns KFC and Pizza Hut.
