When college football fans think of the top talent producing state the big 3 jump to mind right away: Texas, California, and Florida. Those three states once again led the nation in sending college kids to division 1 schools. According to StudentSports, California had 290 D1 signees, Texas 371, and Florida 178. Next on the list may come as a surprise to all but the most die-hard recruitniks: Georgia, with 111. Statistically speaking, Georgia is closer to Florida than Florida is to Texas or California.
It cannot be questioned that Georgia is one of the most talent laden states in the nation. BorderWars is going to issue a top 100 list for the state of Georgia, and we begin our countdown to the #1 player in Georgia today with 100-91.
Jonna Lee
In the NFL draft, the last man taken is labeled "Mr. Insignificant", but Jonna Lee is anything but insignificant despite his #100 ranking. He registered 119 tackles as a junior, and looks to easily match those numbers this year. An accomplished wrestler, Lee finished his junior campaign with a 45-3 record. Lee was one of the most impressive looking (physically) prospects strolling the campus in Athens at the Nike Camp in April. He is wide open among Auburn, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, and North Carolina.
Duane Carter
Duane Carter is an excellent athlete that plays quarterback for Douglas County. Last season He had 1,500 yards and 17 touchdowns in a run oriented offense, and this year he's hoping to open things up a bit more. His first choice is quarterback at the next level, but he may find that his better option is playing wide receiver of defensive back. Carter is looking for his first offer, and he is wide open.
Todd Brooks
Todd Brooks is the first of several prospects from a Parkview team that is working on a 30-0 record and back to back State Championships. Brooks will play defensive end and tight end for Parkview this year, but at the rate he is growing, he could easily be a defensive tackle on the next level. Likes Georgia, Georgia Tech, Furman, Virginia, and Clemson among others.
Carlton Bailey
The name Bailey is synonymous with Georgia High School football, but this Bailey has no relation to Bailey's that have made a name for themselves at the University of Georgia. Make no mistake about it though, this Bailey can play as well. He has good height and excellent lateral movement that will bode well for him at cornerback or wide receiver. He currently likes Alabama, Duke, East Carolina, Georgia Tech, and North Carolina.
Antwuan Jackson
Don't be fooled by a less than stellar performance in the 40 yard dash at the Nike Camp when thinking about receivers in Georgia. Antwaun Jackson didn't run his best time, but he didn't catch 66 passes and ring up 1,470 yards and 24 touchdowns because he was slow. Jackson has plenty of speed to get it done at the next level, and he has the heart and attitude to match.
Antoine Byrd
Antoine Byrd is undersized only in height. He can run like the wind and is pushing 190 pounds. His 4.47 forty and 4.31 shuttle were two of the most impressive times at the Nike Camp. He can make up for his 5-7 frame with a 33" vertical jump and strength to jam wide receivers at the line of scrimmage
Clay Callaway
Clay Callaway known best right now as being the son of Georgia Offensive Line Coach Neil Callaway, but Callaway has the tools to make his own name in this game. He has a good frame and excellent quickness, and he threw for over 1,700 yards as a junior with a 23/8 TD/INT ratio. He too is waiting for his first formal offer, and he is wide open among college choices.
Roy Walker
Roy Walker is a terrific all around athlete. He rushed for over 800 yards and passed for 400 as a junior running the Wing-T at Macon County. He is a 2 time State Champion in the 300 meter hurdles. He wants his first shot at quarterback, but he may be better off at another position in college.
Dyran Williams
Dyran Williams is another player that makes up with his lack of size with sheer physical ability. Possibly the best player on a talented Lovejoy team, Williams has lightning quickness. He may or may not get a shot at the D1 level, but he can play if given the chance. He will be an excellent return man and slot receiver or cornerback.
Seanrick Trimiar
Wide Receiver
Ht: 6-2 Wt: 180 40: 4.5
Habersham Central HS (Mount Airy)
Seanrick Trimiar ran for over 1,000 yards as a junior, but he sees his future at wide receiver, and that's were he will play this season. He has already received an offer from Northwestern and has a chance to climb rapidly up this list with a solid senior season.

A large stick in a pile of leaves is commonplace in Kentucky, but one such stick found in a Hickman County yard could yield evidence in a two-year-old murder case.
Defense attorneys for Kendrick Hunt, a man facing murder charges in the 2011 beating death of Derek Moore, say they found a homemade bat that they believe is the murder weapon used to bludgeon Moore to death. The evidence was found just four days before Hunt was supposed to face trial, and the discovery has led to a significant delay in the trial.
"We've maintained that Mr. Hunt is not guilty this entire time, and we are still confident," Hunt's attorney Tom Griffiths said. "So confident that we are going ask the jury to acquit Mr. Hunt."
Moore's body was found on the side of the road in Fulton County in September 2011. Moore died later that day at Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville, Tenn.
Hunt, Jeremy Irons and Connel Mounday were all arrested six months later after they were indicted by a Hickman County grand jury on charges of capital murder, capital kidnapping and first-degree robbery. Irons and Mounday pleaded guilty a year later to lesser charges, tampering with physical evidence and wanton endangerment, and received 15 years behind bars. They both only are required to serve 20 percent of their sentences, which leaves them eligible for parole after three years, which will fall in late March.
Commonwealth attorney Mike Stacy said there is no proof that the stick found by Griffiths and his partner Abigail Barnes is the murder weapon. Kentucky State Police searched the area twice, Stacy said, and collected all evidence that was pertinent to the case.
Griffiths and Barnes found the bat-like object during a routine walk through the murder scene. They took photos, then went to the courthouse to inform Judge Tim Langford. Local police shut down the scene, and collected the object to be sent off for forensic testing.
Initial test results showed a hair recovered from the object, but Stacy noted there was no blood found. The stick will be tested by several labs in the coming months. If it is related to the killing of Moore, it has been in the yard for two years unprotected from the elements.
"I've been doing this for a long time and I have been amazed at what they can find," Griffiths said.
The case has not been without its drama already. Griffiths filed a motion to expel Stacy from the case, because of Stacy's ties to the Moore family. Stacy said he grew up with the Moore family, but Langford dismissed the motion after a short hearing.
A new trial date has been tentatively set for Sept. 22, but the two sides meet again Thursday morning to discuss a finalized date and any more findings on the evidence.

Kelly Clarkson Addresses Recent Song Leaks
Kelly Clarkson is taking the glass half-full approach to the recent leaks of her unreleased material, saying that she hopes her fans enjoy the songs.
She wrote on her blog, "Well ….. I get back in the states from a vacation and somehow like 50 of my songs are leaked on the Internet?! No point in getting angry because there's nothing I can do so I hope y'all like the music. I can't wait for everybody to hear my actual finished 5th album!"
These days, it's near-impossible for artists to prevent songs from leaking, unless they go the Radiohead route and record in top-secret and release the music through their own website, so it's good to see that the former 'American Idol' champ isn't getting too stressed out about this. The good news is that Kelly fans seem to enjoy the new stuff, and her voice sounds great on tracks like 'Let Me Down.'
Clarkson just dealt with leaked music in May, when some of her demos surfaced online. At the time, she encouraged fans to not pay close attention to the leaks, because they weren't finished songs.
Clarkson's fifth album is still planned for a September release. She's likely to perform some of the new material at September's iHeartRadio Music Festival.

Burien to take census of North Highline
Count is in addition to federal census
The effective date for North Highline residents to become City of Burien residents is April 1. Residents of the southern section of North Highline voted on Aug. 18, 2009, to annex to the city.
As part of the annexation process, the city is required to conduct a special census of all housing units. A census worker wearing a fluorescent vest and a City of Burien identification badge between March 12 and April 25 will visit households in the annexation area. The only information required in this census is the names of all individuals residing in a household. Annexation residents may also provide this census information directly, at any time after March 12th, by calling the Burien Census Hotline at 1-800-635-6594. The Census Hotline is available 24 hours a day. Any information provided will be held confidential. Cooperating with this special annexation census ensures that Burien receives a full share of state funds allotted for essential public services.
This special annexation census is in addition to the U.S. Census conducted by the federal Census Bureau later this spring in which residents will receive a 10-question census form in the mail. More information about the federal census is available at http://2010.census.gov.
Residents should be aware that neither census will require them to provide their social security numbers, credit card numbers, bank account information or pay any fees. Residents should not provide such details to anyone who claims to be a census worker and asks for this kind of information. Legitimate census workers will have identification badges with a phone number that residents can call if they would like to verify their identities. Residents may contact the city at 206-241-4647 with questions or concerns
We encourage our readers to comment. No registration is required. We ask that you keep your comments free of profanity and keep them civil. They are moderated and objectionable comments will be removed.

Can I shingle a dormer without re-shingling the main roof?
1 Attachment(s)
I am finishing the construction of a new porch that wraps around the front of my house. It's getting late in the season (Pennsylvania) and I have been trying to wrap this up between rain / snow days.
I was planning on building a dormer on the front porch roof but I already had the new sheathing and underlayment down and with over 2" of rain on the way I ended up shingling the entire roof to protect it.
My mistake was that I didn't take the time to consider how I was going to run the valley off of the dormer. My initial thoughts were that I was just adding an unnecessary area of shingles under the dormer and that they would just be hidden.
Now I realize that there is no way for me to tie the main roof and the dormer roof together nicely at the valley.
I can't see the process of cutting the new shingles and slipping any flashing under them coming out well. There is also a lot of work and money there to rip them up and lay down new ones.
I have attached a photo of the roof in it's current condition. What are your thoughts?
As I see it you really only have two options.
And unfortunately both require removing the shingles to some extent.
It does not appear to be a large area. I think you will just have to put your mind to it and race the weather and get it done.
Sorry, the right way is seldom the quick and easy way.
Hey, moparman,
I see your hindsight is 20/20. Live and learn.
Are you still in the process of the main roof because it looks like it is missing ridge cap. Also, you need more support for the dormer than what you have. Put another 2x6 or whatever you have in for support. The right way to roof it would be to tear out the shingles a shingle width for when you roof up the valley. I recommend using a Metal W valley. The only way for to get done right, is to tear out some of the work already done, roll some ice and water shield down the valley, put the metal valley in and roof it.
metal W flashing
I hope you can get it in your area quicker then up here in Maine -- I called all over the state when doing a roofing project earlier here this fall and found out no one stocked it -- it was order only. Good luck and good luck wrestling with the ice and water shield also :whistling2: I destroyed more then one piece but did avoid getting it totally wrapped around my body :laughing:
I just took this photo the morning after I finished laying down the roof (Wednesday). I haven't capped the ridges yet. I realized the valley dilema the night before while I was working on it but had to get it covered because it was raining.
Right now I am planning on chalking a line and setting the blade depth on an old circular saw blade to 2 singles. I'll make the cuts and use a bar to lift the roof enough to get a W valley under the existing roof.
The most popular opinion seems to be that I can make it look good and also keep the integrity of the shingles with a W valley on there.
I know I'll need more framing for the dormer but even though I used treated lumber I still like to keep the exposure to a minimum until I'm ready to close it up.
My local hardware store doesn't keep the "W" in stock. They told me today that I should be able to have it for Wednesday. I hit the HD this afternoon and they have a nice picture of it on the flashing rack but the "I don't know - I just started here" guy said he has never seen it before.
I'm hoping that I can get the shingles on top of the W valley to lay down nice and tight.
Sounds like a bad idea to me. Take off whole shingles at the valley to expose the deck wide enough for I&W and w flashing. Put on your dormer sheeting, lay down I& W all the way to the eave, install w flashing. Install new shingles on dormer and removed area. It will be easier, less messy, look nicer and be less likey to leak.
Treated lumber to frame the dormer?? Has it started twisting into a pretzel yet? Did you use hot dipped galvanized framing nails? Have you got hot dipped nails for putting down the roof sheeting?
Actually, the entire porch was framed out with treated lumber. Unorthodox I know, but it was such a wet summer I didn't know how long it would be exposed before I could get it covered. That and the cost of PT being only a few cents more than standard pine right now I figured it was a good investment.
It was secured well and it hasn't twisted and warped at all. Usually the few bad ones that are going to act up bend around and touch themselves within a day of sitting in the pile.
I had ceramic coated screws left from the deck flooring so they worked perfectly to attach the sheathing to the rafters.

We might once have called this rather uncharacteristic. Sony's eBook store is eschewing its own proprietary format in favour of adopting the open EPUB format.
The transition should be completed by the end of the year and the change will mean eBooks purchased from Sony will be useable on other readers. That's a smart move as it extends Sony's market notably beyond the user base of its own Reader devices. Plus it should make users a bit more confident that they'll remain able to use purchased eBooks, even if Sony stops making readers.
Purchases will still be DRM-protected, which is hardly surprising. Specifically, protection is provided by Adobe content Server 4, for those particularly interested in the nuances of Sony's copyright defence mechanisms. Sure, we might prefer DRM-free content, but Sony is making steps in the right directions.
The implication here is that Sony is at last learning from the mistakes it has made in the past. Minidisc, ATRAC, UMD - none of these proprietary formats did Sony any good and while the Reader line-up has been doing okay so far, it's unlikely a Sony-only eBook format will do it any favours now the competition is starting to catch up.
Smart move, Sony.

Private equity's stellar year over as Bradken pulls float
Page Tools
A year or so ago, private equity firms "could not give a company away", says Macquarie Direct Investment's managing director, Sandy Lockhart.
But since then, with a dozen or so $100 million-plus floats and numerous other "exits" under their belts, firms such as Catalyst, Macquarie and Castle Harlan Australian Mezzanine Partners (CHAMP) have enjoyed a "golden age" and delivered private equity investors returns "as good as anywhere in the world", Mr Lockhart says.
The modus operandi for private equity firms is to buy companies that aren't ready for listing, provide them with the capital to grow or restructure, and usually load them up with debt to leverage returns. A few years later, they will often look to sell - either through a float or a trade sale - and return the proceeds to investors, looking for returns of 20 per cent-plus a year.
The cycle has been in overdrive, with Macquarie, for instance, completing 10 exits in the past nine months amid a buoyant float market.
But as of this week, the party is officially over - with CHAMP-backed engineering group Bradken yesterday formally withdrawing its $245 million float due to lack of institutional interest. And on Monday, Catalyst decided against a float of B&D Doors, instead selling the business to Alesco for $255 million.
"Maybe we are going to go into hibernation," Mr Lockhart says.
The frenzy of exits via floats has also left many investors on the other side of the most recent deals looking at a loss. While the first wave of deals including the likes of JB Hi-Fi, Village Life and InvoCare have been successes, several recent floats have traded at discounts to their issue prices, including Just Group and Transonic.
AMP Capital's co-head of private equity, Marcus Darville, says while several recent floats are trading at discounts, most are only modestly below, their moves were broadly in line with the overall market, and the widespread use of "book-builds" in floats is helping cap stag profits.
"From what I hear, a lot of these companies are going to hit their [prospectus] forecasts. If they do, there's a fair chance they are going to be re-rated," Mr Darville says.
Unlike the tech boom in 2000, "people are not going to lose their shirts on the vast majority of them, that's for sure".
CHAMP insisted yesterday it was happier to hold onto Bradken rather than on-sell it at an inferior price.
Despite concerns that private equity firms have taken advantage of favourable conditions at the expense of float investors, CHAMP executive chairman Bill Ferris said this week that CHAMP had made a number of exits over the years that proved to be good floats, including Austal Ships, Cuppa Cup Vineyards and Datacraft.
Mr Ferris said CHAMP often wanted to hold an ongoing interest in companies it had floated, but in the case of Bradken, it had been advised this would not be a good idea because it would create a perceived stock overhang.
Like B&D, private equity players may simply fall back on trade sales to realise their investments.
"Often our exits will be trade sales because the business is a sensible bolt-on for a larger player in an industry," Crescent Capital Partners' director Andrew McGill says.
At the moment, Crescent does not have any investments that are planning to list. However, it is an investor in non-conforming mortgage lender Bluestone, which has said it plans to list eventually.
One recent float that has proceeded despite the tough times is the $48.2 million offer of discount variety retailer The Reject Shop, which is enabling the exit of Macquarie Bank's private equity arm. It will list on the ASX next week.
Hope springs eternal that the market's sudden distaste for floats will be temporary. UBS is also running a dual trade sale/float process for the ophthalmic surgery group Vision Group, one of AMP's investments.

There are many reasons why: to start with, U.S. policy since the fall of the Berlin Wall has been to work to create a Europe "whole, free, democratic, and at peace." That remains our objective today and Ukraine is one of Europe's key unfinished pieces.
In addition, Ukraine is a country with enormous potential. Ukraine has an educated, talented population of 46 million people and plentiful natural resources, especially some of the richest agricultural land on the planet.
A Ukraine that is fulfilling its potential -- a prosperous, democratic and European Ukraine -- would be a great partner for the U.S., much as it has been already in such important areas as preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction. This valuable partnership could help us confront the many challenges that the world faces today: hunger, climate change, terrorism, and religious fundamentalism to name just a few.
Around the world, our best partnerships are with countries that share our values: democracy, the rule of law, human rights, free speech, and open markets. A Ukraine that shares those values, a Ukraine in which elections are free and where political opponents do not imprison one another, would be a country that could serve as an example to those of its neighbors who are also struggling with their own transitions to democracy and free market economies.
While we can help, it is up to Ukraine and to Ukrainians to realize their potential and to assume a global role commensurate with that potential. The U.S. has been Ukraine's largest bilateral donor of assistance over the last 20 years and we will continue to support Ukraine's efforts. However, real change must come from within and there are no easy fixes.
Take for instance, energy. Cheaper gas is not the answer to Ukraine's economic problems. It will not suddenly make Ukrainian companies globally competitive or its bureaucracy more efficient and transparent. Quite the opposite, it will only fuel dependency, inefficiency and corruption as it did in the past. Ukrainians must, like people everywhere, pay market price for their energy.
When this happened in your western neighbors in the former communist bloc, consumption of energy declined dramatically and the push to utilize domestic sources of energy became profitable. The same thing would happen here. Ukraine has enough resources to be almost energy independent – especially given the "shale gas revolution" which began in the U.S. -- and Ukraine's own potential shale gas reserves. Such a development would fundamentally alter the energy relationship between Ukraine and Russia, a co-dependency that serves neither country's best interests.
Gas prices at market rates would also help Ukraine negotiate another agreement with the IMF. A new IMF agreement is the best short-term solution to help Ukraine deal with a very difficult financial situation in 2013. Ultimately, however, Ukraine will need to borrow money to cover its deficits, either domestically or internationally, or it will have to stop running deficits. However, IMF agreements are only supposed to be temporary packages to tide a country over until it can once again manage its finances on its own. They are not meant to be a permanent source of funding. That is why they include conditions that are intended to help a country make the necessary reforms to put it on a sound financial footing and on the path to sound economic growth.
When I first arrived here, a Ukrainian official told me that some of the world's best computer hackers were Ukrainians. Wouldn't it be better for Ukraine and the world if those hackers were instead creating new information technology companies; if the next Apple were a Ukrainian company? What would it take for that to happen? It would take a new business climate, one in which people with influence didn't feel empowered to harass and to shakedown private enterprises. And for that to happen, Ukraine needs a new legal and judicial system, one that protects the rights of the individual rather than the interests of the state or well-connected insiders. Ukraine has taken some initial steps toward this goal, such as implementation of the new Criminal Procedure Code, but the nation still has work to do before the justice system can effectively tackle problems such as rampant corruption.
2013 will be my last year as the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. I will be sad to leave but that sadness will be lessened because I am so optimistic about the future of this country. In my three years here, I have met many impressive young Ukrainians: smart, honest and hard-working. I am confident that these young people will accept responsibility for making their country a better place – the sort of place in which one would want to live and raise children, knowing that those children had a chance at a better and more fulfilling life.
Children have been much on my mind of late, since the tragedy last week in Newtown, Connecticut. I would like to thank everyone in Ukraine who has expressed sympathy to us over this senseless tragedy.
In closing, I would like to recall U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's speech in Kyiv in early July 2010. She spoke of the long journey that is involved in building a democracy and society ruled by law. We understand that our Ukrainian friends are only 20 years into this process. The criticism that we offer Ukraine's government and society is offered in a spirit of friendship and solidarity.
Ukraine is an older country than America with its own proud traditions from which we can learn. I marvel every day at the strength and the resilience of the Ukrainian people who have endured centuries of suffering and have finally reclaimed their independence. I am confident that Ukrainian strength and resilience is ultimately what will see you through to a brighter, better future – з Новим Роком.
John F. Tefft is America's ambassador to Ukraine.

Hog-Herd Limit Seen Boosting Pork-Chop Prices, Hormel Costs
U.S. hog producers are unlikely to increase the size of their herds because of the soaring cost of livestock feed, AgStar Financial Services Inc. said, signaling higher expenses for meat processors including Hormel Foods Corp. (HRL) and pricier pork chops at the grocery store.
"There's just way too much inherent risk to expand your operation," said Mark Greenwood, who oversees $1.4 billion in loans and leases to the hog industry as a vice president at AgStar in Mankato, Minnesota. "Anybody involved in the protein sector, your cost of production is going up exponentially. Pork at the retail level will have to go up."
Seaboard Foods LLC (SEB), the third-biggest U.S. hog producer, said this week that the nation's herd will be little changed this year. Prospects for increased animal supplies in the U.S., the world's leading pork exporter, have been eroded by feed-corn prices that are 85 percent higher than a year ago, mostly because more of the crop is being used to make grain-based fuel, the company said.
Spot-hog prices, which rose 1 percent to 88.18 cents a pound yesterday, may climb to 95 cents to 98 cents in the three months starting June 1, said Altin Kalo, a commodity analyst at Steiner Consulting Group in Manchester, New Hampshire.
That would mark a gain of as much as 26 percent from the average price in that period a year earlier, possibly boosting expenses for Tyson Foods Inc. (TSN), the largest U.S. meat processor. In April, spot hogs reached 92.71 cents, the highest since at least 2003, government data showed.
'Cost Pressure'
Tight supply is "going to be a cost pressure for both Tyson and Hormel," said Ann Gurkin, an equity analyst at Davenport & Co. in Richmond, Virginia. "Their input costs are going to go up as they buy hogs for their processing facilities."
Processors probably will pass on higher costs, and consumers will face higher retail prices, said Gurkin, who rates Tyson as "buy" and Hormel "neutral." In February, bone-in pork chops jumped to $3.751 a pound, the highest since at least 1980, and in March, bacon prices were 24 percent higher than a year earlier, government data show.
"A lack of expansion is not surprising, given pork producers' lack of profitability," Gary Mickelson, a Tyson spokesman, said in an e-mail. "Tight credit policies by lenders, high grain prices and regulatory restrictions have contributed to the lack of profitability, despite record high hog prices. Consumers will continue to face higher protein prices as long as these fundamentals remain in place."
'Adequate Supply'
Springdale, Arkansas-based Tyson will have an "adequate supply" of livestock to "efficiently operate" plants, he said. Hormel, based in Austin, Minnesota, couldn't be reached for comment.
Higher meat prices won't be enough to spur bigger herds as long as cost remain high, said Joe Glauber, the chief economist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Shoppers may pay as much as 7.5 percent more for pork this year, the agency has forecast.
The U.S. sow herd on March 1 rose 0.5 percent from a year ago, government data show. AgStar's Greenwood cited "some chatter" on the prospect of U.S. producers looking at building new sow units, he said. If that happens, the pigs wouldn't come to market until the second half of 2012, he said.
Rising export demand for U.S. pork helped spur a 9.8 percent rally in hog futures in the past year. On April 1, the most-active contract on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange reached $1.0435 a pound, the highest since at least 1986.
Profits Return
Producers without hedging strategies made $2 for each animal sold in March and $4 per head in February, said Rich Nelson, the director of research at Allendale Inc. in McHenry, Illinois. That ended losses in the four months through January. Nelson had forecast herd expansion to begin at the end of August, based on the outlook for margins.
In April, hog futures fell 8.3 percent, the most since October. A slump in the past three weeks means "expansion is going to be on hold now," Nelson said. Since hog producers are projected to be profitable through December, he said the chance for expansion by the end of the year is "50-50."
An increase in animal weights will "help mitigate" the lack of expansion, Nelson said. The average hog carcass reached 211.31 pounds (96 kilograms) on April 22, just below the Jan. 7 weight of 211.59 pounds, which was the heaviest since at least 2002, USDA data show.
Weights averaged 208.24 pounds in April, up almost 3 pounds from a year earlier.
Pork Demand
Increased export demand for U.S. meat is benefiting processors, Heather Jones, an analyst at BB&T Capital Markets in Richmond, Virginia, said last week. U.S. pork shipments climbed 7.2 percent in February to 387.6 million pounds (175,824 metric tons) from a year earlier, the latest government data show.
Companies such as Smithfield Foods Inc. that produce and process hogs may benefit from tighter supplies because of the rise in prices, Jones said.
She rates the Smithfield, Virginia-based company, the world's largest pork processor, as "hold" and Tyson "buy.".
Hog futures for June settlement fell 0.05 cent to settle at 92.375 cents a pound at 1 p.m. in Chicago.
Triumph Foods LLC is the second-biggest U.S. hog producer based on 2010 sow statistics, according to AgricultureOnline.

So, here you are, reading the introductory issue of the "new" Aquaculture Magazine. Some of us are seeing this industry publication for the first time, but many others have fond memories of its prior history and are anxious to welcome it back. Speaking for all of our columnists and editorial staff, we certainly hope we can exceed your expectations. And, I am confident we will. The group of columnists we have been fortunate enough to assemble is truly stellar, and I consider it a real honor to be working with each of them. Similarly, our editorial and advertising staffs are no rookies to this field of endeavor. They have an impressive history serving the aquaculture industry and its suppliers throughout the Americas for many years, through the bilingual industry publication Panorama Acuicola. You may have seen it before, and if so, you'll understand where the inspiration came from for the wonderful content and layout of the new Aquaculture Magazine.
In its prior incarnation, Aquaculture Magazine had a long history of providing information to the industry. On my desk I have a copy of the November/December 1979 issue (Volume 6, Number 1). The reason I mention this particular issue is because it represented the adoption of the name "Aquaculture Magazine" and the format known to so many people in the industry for the next 30 years. Prior to that time, the magazine was known as "The Commercial Fish Farmer & Aquaculture News," which in turn was a consolidation of the pioneering industry publications "Fish Farming Industries," "The Catfish Farmer" and "American Fish Farmer & World Aquaculture News." The latter should not be confused with any publication related to the World Aquaculture Society, which at that time was still known as the World Mariculture Society. Yes, November 1979 was a long time back in terms of commercial aquaculture… there is an advertisement on page 43 of the issue touting soybeans as "a new source of protein for fish."
As the saying goes, it's okay to look back at the past - just don't stare. With the re-launch of Aquaculture Magazine, we are here to address the reality of aquaculture production in 2014 and for the decade ahead. We will try to distinguish ourselves by focusing, in a variety of important disciplines, on practical issues and information that producers and others (especially many in academia) will find of interest. Our goal is not to compete with any other publications, but rather to complement the information sources currently available to our readers. The shared vision of all of us – columnists, contributors and editorial staff, is to engage you in such a way that you feel you are deriving value from our publication. After reading an article we hope your response will range from "I need to try that" to "now I understand how that works" to "that approach could save me a lot of time and money!"
All of us welcome your questions, comments and suggestions. Ideas for column topics and feature articles are always welcome. We want you to feel like this is your magazine, because after all, you're who we write and publish it for. Feel free to contact me at email@example.com any time. We'll do our best to respond to your input.

(2/14/2008) NEW HAVEN- At a media event today, New Haven�s Tax Collector, C.J. Cuticello, unveiled the City�s new and improved device for tracking down vehicles with unpaid tax bills. Known internally as �The Plate Hunter,� the new device takes the City�s highly successful tax-recovery program to a new level. Instead of one camera with a single range of sight, the new device can scan license plates on both sides of the street simultaneously, doubling the range that a tow truck can cover at one time.
There are 10,026 motor vehicle accounts that have been past-due since July 1, 2007 representing a total delinquency of $2,062,685.Additionally, there are 6,761 supplemental motor vehicle accounts outstanding since January 1, 2008 with a total delinquency of $984,263. Last fall, the program motivated residents to pay their past-due bills to the City resulting in upwards of $3 million in tax payments in only the first week of that initiative. In those first seven days of the fall 2007 program, the City towed 204 vehicles representing $63,829 in delinquent tax dollars.
The �plate hunter� program involves three units, each with a tow truck and a state marshal, covering 127 miles of New Haven streets to seize vehicles with outstanding tax bills. Each tow truck will have a �plate hunter� mounted on to it.
�The plate hunter is a state-of-the-art device that can scan both sides of the street at the same time and displays both sides of the street simultaneously on the viewing screen, in color,� said Cuticello. �This new equipment generates maps with locations, coordinates, time, date, record of the delinquent account and more. The program can be networked and linked to an operations center for additional uses such as responding to Amber Alerts and finding stolen vehicles.�
The �plate hunter� also has the ability to differentiate states and provides hands free operation increasing safety for the tow operators. When the �plate-hunter� identifies vehicles with delinquent bills, they are seized and towed to a storage yard. Residents must pay motor vehicle taxes before they can retrieve their vehicles from towing companies. Residents will also have to pay the charges set by the towing companies before their vehicles are released.
�We�ll cover every area of this city, every neighborhood and every district to track down delinquent vehicles,� said Cuticello. �This program has been successful every time we�ve run it and I�m confident that we�ll meet or exceed our goals this time around.�
If a resident�s vehicle is towed on a Friday after business hours or on a Saturday morning, tax bills can be paid at the tax collector�s office in City Hall between the hours of 9am and 1pm on Saturdays. If a vehicle is towed between Monday and Friday afternoon, tax bills are to be paid at the tax collector�s office in City Hall between 9am and 5pm.
The office of the tax collector will be working in conjunction with the department of traffic and parking to not only collect outstanding taxes but to also ensure that residents are paying for delinquent traffic and parking violations. Traffic and parking violations can be reconciled at the traffic office at 200 Orange Street.

The guy in the STi shouldn't feel bad. I got smoked pretty bad by a modded Eclipse in my Stage 4 WRX (12.7 @ 108 mph)
This was on the street. I just ran into this guy with a nice looking Eclipse. Next thing you know I'm 2 cars back racing up to 80mph!
After the race I asked the guy what it ran in the 1/4 mile. He told me mid to high 11s.
The car looked stock with an exhaust.

That thing pulled like there was no tomorrow. I'd like to know what all it had done to it. Maybe give some pointers to my buddy who's got a 90 tsi. The STi owner was probably in shock to see that thing fly by it after he got such a huge jump in that first race. I want an awd turbo!

text: Lost reboot is "likely" says former showrunner Carlton Cuse Did you think all was Lost? Think again as those in the know suggest ABC is looking to reignite its sci-fi money-spinner... Comments Written By Susanna Lazarus 11:33 AM, 23 April 2014 If you thought we were done with Lost... think again. According to former showrunner Carlton Cuse, US network ABC still think there's a profit to be made in the award-winning sci-fi series which came to an underwhelming conclusion back in May 2010. "I think it's likely that at some point, ABC will want to reboot Lost because it's a valuable franchise," he told Entertainment Weekly. But don't expect Cuse to get involved with the reboot. "I do not begrudge ABC the opportunity to do something more with the franchise," he continued. "But we told the story we wanted to tell, and I think there's kind of a wonderful sense of closure for us. "[The series finale is] called 'The End' for that reason. It is the end of the story that we wanted to tell and we had no plans to go back and revisit it." The show's co-creator Damon Lindelof had previously ruled himself out of any future episodes, telling Variety's Entertainment and Technology Summit, "I do feel like the world has not seen the end of Lost, but I'm not going to have any involvement." And while the showrunners have had their say, there's still no word on whether the Lost's stars Evangeline Lily and Josh Holloway will return, or any official confirmation on a revival for that matter. But, you know what they say... there's no smoke without fire. Follow @RadioTimes Like this? Share it. Facebook Twitter Google Tumblr Pinterest Blogger Reddit VKontakt Print Email

Tutorial by Rupp
1. First we need to download Grub4Dos. Get it here: download.gna.org/grub4dos/ . The newest version is always down at the bottom. Be sure not to get anything that says alpha or beta.
2. Ok you have now downloaded grub4dos. Next you need to extract it using winrar or any other zip program. Now that it is unzipped we need to remove these two files:
3. The rest you will no longer need. Place the two files I mentioned above in your root directory in windows. That would be where ever your windows is installed. That is usually C: but can be any other drive letter. We will use C: as an example.
4. Ok we now have that part done. Next we need to extract the Puppy Linux .iso . That is the file you download before you burn it to a CD. Use the same method you used to extract the grub4dos program.
5. Ok you now should have a folder of contents. Copy the extracted files and place them in the root of the partition you have chosen. We will use D: as an example but you can put it in C: along with windows.
From running puppy you may notice the following to things in puppy your:
C: partition is usually recognized as hda1 or sda1
D: partition is usually recognized as hda2 or sda2
Make note of that when you have previously booted puppy. My second partition is recognized as sda3 in my computer instead of sda2. So if you are not sure boot back into puppy using your live cd. You will need to know that for the next step but we will use D: as sda2 in this example.
6. Go back to C: and open the menu.lst in a text editor. It will show an example of a menu.lst inside just delete all of that. Copy and paste this into the now empty menu.lst
timeout 12
gfxmenu (hd0,0)/boot/grub/runtt420bm
color cyan/blue white/blue
title Puppy Linux
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 pmedia=idecd
initrd (hd0,0)/initrd.gz
title Puppy Linux
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 pfix=ram pmedia=idecd
initrd (hd0,0)/initrd.gz
This is a menu.lst for I forget what Puppy I used but it worked for every Puppy I frugal installed without having to change. So it doesn't really matter. Ok notice the (hd0,0) ? I'll tell you what this means real quick.
hd is for harddrive. the numbers stand for (which hard drive, and partition) The first of anything is always represented by the number 0
Our example computer has only 1 hard drive and 3 partitions.
So the first number will always stay 0 because its the first and only harddrive we will use. The partions on the other hand will start at zero and go up like this:
sda1 or hda1 (hd0,0)
sda2 or hda2 (hd0,1)
sda3 or hda3 (hd0,2)
Ok we now know that sda2 is the partition where we placed the files from the extracted iso. Now edit the menu.lst to look like:
timeout 12
gfxmenu (hd0,1)/boot/grub/runtt420bm
color cyan/blue white/blue
title Puppy Linux
kernel (hd0,1)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 pmedia=idecd
initrd (hd0,1)/initrd.gz
title Puppy Linux
kernel (hd0,1)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 pfix=ram pmedia=idecd
initrd (hd0,1)/initrd.gz
That step is now done and we only have one more step to do before we can use our new frugal install of puppy. We need to edit the boot.ini of Windows to do that:
Right click on the My Computer icon in windows, Go down to properties click on it, Now click on the Advanced tab, Go down to where it says "Startup and Recovery" click on settings. In "Startup and Recovery" click on edit this now opened your boot.ini file which should look similar to this one.
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
Now add this to the bottom of the last line: C:\GRLDR="Start Grub"
It should now look like this:
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
C:\GRLDR="Start Grub"
Now save it and reboot. Now during the boot you will see something like this
Windows XP Home
Start Grub
Go to Start Grub and choose how you want to boot Puppy
Congtatulations you have just frugal installed Puppy Linux the easiest way.

Leveling up for tile
Hi Everyone,
I'm installing 6 x 24" porcelain tile on a pretty decent slab. Only about 180 sf. Problem is I have two door joints that are abutting old thick tile. They are about 3/4 inch thick including the thin set. My modern tiles are 9mm or about 3/8 so they sit slightly under 3/8 low. Enough to catch a toe.
I don't know how much you can "build up" the tile with the thin set. If I use a 1/2 inch trowel would that do it? Or...
Do I cover the floor with 1/4 in Hardi backer or 1/4 inch lauan and use as little thin set as possible? This will be in a bath and kitchen.
You don't use any tile backer on a slab.
You'll want to do some more research before you start the job.
The best solution for you may well be to put a chunk of stone in as a door threshold. This could be the same height as the the high tile, or even above it.
This will be something which will catch a toe, but you will get used to it.
Yow, you need more research and a better understanding of what you are doing before you jump in to this one.
Those 6" X 24" tiles may be an issue for you also on a concrete floor, you may be asking for trouble.
I don't mean to be rude, but I was actually hoping for help or a suggestion. So far I've received two replies both saying I need to do more research. I thought that was what I was doing, in conjunction with talking to local tile stores.
The way I see it there are four options...
Live with the difference and use a threshold
Lift the floor with backer board or self leveler
Use a thicker coat of thin set and backbutter the tiles.
The first is unacceptable, the last takes more skill than I have. The self leveler is expensive but may be the best. I know the manufacturer won't warrant a cementitious board over slab but seems like using a good construction adhesive would get the Hardibacker solid on the floor.
Usually on the DIY forum there is someone with more experience that has confronted the situation and tells how he would handle it. "Do more research" sounds like someone who doesn't want to be bothered to help, has no idea how to help, or is just protecting his profession and assumes people can't do things themselves.
Thanks for any helpful suggestions!
This is the two first red flags "1/4 in Hardie backer or 1/4 inch luan".
Both should never be used over a slab.
And luan should never be used under tile.
Lift the floor with backer board is not an option, won't work.
Use a thicker coat of thin set and backbutter the tiles is also not the way to do it. I know it sounds simple but it isn't, fortunately you do seem to recognize that.
If you can't live with a slight change-up then; Self Leveler is in fact the least expensive approach believe it or not.
I have more than thirty-five years of my life invested in the tile-knowledge I possess and you want it all handed to you in two minutes. Slow down, take a deep breath, take a step back and continue to do your homework. You'll get the answers you are looking for by sifting and eliminating the bogus.
I'm still researching as he suggests but it'd be nice if someone had a solution rather than just repeatedly telling me I can't use backer on a slab. I got that part.
At this point I'm still left with an unlevel floor and no practical ideas.
Thanks Bud. You have shared some useful information and sorry if I offended you. Not intended. Despite what it sounds like, I've been all over the web and talked face to face with a local installer and tile store owner. The answers aren't as consistent as you might think.
I suppose I'm gonna get a bunch of self leveler. I know (it's almost like a mantra,) YOU CAN'T USE CBU ON A SLAB but I've not heard anyone say why not. What happens?
And no, I don't expect your lifetime's knowledge in two minutes but I have another job and 20 other little projects that go with this remodel including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, etc. When I have specific problems I guess I hope for some useful suggestions if some of you have them. Isn't that the point of the DIY forums?
You can't use CBU on a slab because it has to be nailed down.
I know the manufacturer says you can't. I know the instructions for installation are to nail it down. I get it and won't be using it but I'm still curious regarding what happens.
If you were to etch the surface and use a good quality construction adhesive I don't understand what the failure would be...do the tile crack, pop up, come apart at the grout lines,...what? Logic says that if the CBU was tightly adherent to the flat slab it would be equivalent to nailing it down.
oh, and does anyone know what problem I'm supposed to be looking for using 6 x 24s on a slab?
So...I'll add this much for you so that maybe you will get off of dead-center and move on:
Concrete floors are never flat (plane). They are in most cases problematic because they are not flat/plane.
Cement board is (also) not flat. Cement board has a tendency to be a little warped. When you try to apply a not-so-flat cement board to a not-so-flat concrete floor you will have voids under the boards. Voids cause movement. Movement will wreck a tile installation in short-order.
1.)Construction adhesive will not bond to dusty cement board.
2.)Then the path-of-least-resistance in applying the construction adhesive is to drizzle it onto the floor or the board using a caulk gun disbursing the adhesive in strings. The strings will in-time get hard and the resulting voids (between the strings) will create movement, movement will destroy the tile installation.
3.)Another problem is getting the not-so-flat cement board to follow the not-so-flat contours of the concrete without using mechanical fasteners - ain't gonna happen.
So...your "logic" is laced with misunderstandings of how all of this works.
Again...concrete floors ARE NOT FLAT/PLANE. To the novice they may appear flat/plane but I promise you THEY ARE NOT.
The larger the tiles used, the greater the issues become. Tiles that are 24" in at least one dimension can be trouble. Twenty-four inch tiles on a concrete floor can be difficult to deal with when it comes to getting them plane on the surface and eliminating lippage.
Tiles 24" X 24" (square) are one thing, tiles 24" X 6" can be a completely different animal in some cases.
When I give seminars with this degree of detail I get paid for my time. In this case I am willing to donate my time to anyone that asks but at the same time I expect you to also make an investment in researching procedures in an effort to better educate yourself. The Internet is full of this information but you have to seek it out.
Thanks, Bud. I get it. I think it's time to put an end to the pissing contest.
I have done considerable internet research including reading the threads on the professional site, youtube, the local tile store, and the archives of this site.
In the past I've received help and explanation. I'm sorry if you're annoyed that I didn't find "do more research" was an acceptable answer. That was my only complaint in this thread.
You folks come here for legitimate advice and then when you get it you want someone to spend a lot of time explaining WHY. It's a waste of our time.
If it offends you to give free advice to "you folks" or takes so much of your valuable time, why do you "waste your time"? What a troll.
