IceCaps snap home losing streak with gutsy effort Posted by IceCaps on
St. John's downs Toronto 4-2 in feisty affair
ST. JOHN'S, NL – The St. John's IceCaps ended a seven-game home losing streak with a big 4-2 win over the North Division leading Toronto Marlies Sunday afternoon at Mile One Centre.
Kevin Clark scored the game-winner at 10:26 of the third period and added an empty-netter to seal the victory. Jason Jaffray, the game's first star, and Eric O'Dell both notched a goal and an assist, while Ray Sawada picked up a pair of helpers. Eddie Pasquale stopped 21-of-23 shots for his ninth win of the season.
The IceCaps' penalty killing unit was sharp Sunday afternoon, killing off five-of-seven Marlies power plays after allowing three goals on five chances Saturday night. St. John's also went 1-for-4 on the power play to end a three-game drought with the man advantage.
Early in the game, however, the Marlies continued their power play success with an early first period marker. On a five-on-three following minor penalties to Ryan Schnell and Cody Sol, Joe Colborne, who had three points in Saturday's game, fed Paul Ranger near the right faceoff circle. Ranger snapped a wrister that cleanly beat Pasquale low on the blocker side to give Toronto a 1-0 lead just 2:35 after the opening faceoff.
St. John's pulled even on a power play of its own later in the first period when O'Dell notched his third goal of the two-game series. Jaffray attempted to hammer a rebound into an empty net and was stopped, but O'Dell was right there to poke the puck home amidst a mad scramble in front of Rynnas, making it a 1-1 game.
The IceCaps took the lead midway through the second frame on a goal by Jaffray after a nice setup by Sawada. Sawada outmuscled a Marlies defender down low and from his knees sent a pass out front to Jaffray near the left faceoff circle, and the IceCaps' captain one-timed home his sixth of the season to give the home side a 2-1 advantage.
Toronto tied the score with 2:58 to go in the middle frame on a penalty shot goal by Ryan Hamilton. The IceCaps were whistled for delay of game when Richard Petiot closed his hand over the puck in the crease during a clearing attempt. Ryan Hamilton answered the call and made a beautiful backhand-to-forehand move, sliding the puck past Pasquale's outstretched pad to tie the game at two.
In the third, St. John's pulled ahead on Clark's third of the season. O'Dell attempted a shot from the slot that was blocked, and the puck bounced to Clark near the left faceoff dot. Clark continued towards the net and made a nifty move to the forehand, sliding the puck underneath a fooled Rynnas, giving the IceCaps a 3-2 lead.
With Rynnas on the bench for the extra attacker, Clark capped off the scoring with his second of the game, racing down the ice and beating a Marlies defender to collect a loose puck and backhand it into the yawning cage.
The IceCaps now pack up and head out on the road for a six-game, 12-day trip that begins next Friday and Saturday in Norfolk against the Admirals.
Catch all the action with broadcaster Brian Rogers at stjohnsicecaps.com and on 930AM This Is Newfoundland Labrador, or watch online at ahllive.com.
F Jason Jaffray's two points vaulted him into sole possession of the team scoring lead with 20 points (6G, 14A) in 27 games… F Eric O'Dell has scored in back-to-back games and has five points (3G, 2A) during his three-game point streak… D Richard Petiot made his IceCaps debut and picked up an assist on F Kevin Clark's game-winning goal in the third period. Both Petiot and Clark were a team-best +2 in the victory… The IceCaps improved their home record to 7-11-1-1… The IceCaps have now sold out 58 consecutive home games at Mile One Centre.

Two new Queensland ministers have been sworn in after the shock resignation of former police minister David Gibson.
Mr Gibson resigned as police minister last week after he was allegedly caught speeding while his licence was suspended.
The resignation has meant a reshuffle for the Newman government, just a month after the state election.
Jack Dempsey was sworn in as police and community affairs minister at Government House in Brisbane on Monday morning.
Glen Elmes took over Mr Dempsey's former roles, and was sworn in as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and multicultural affairs minister, and minister assisting the premier.
Premier Campbell Newman told Governor Penelope Wensley at the ceremony that he was sure the new ministers would fulfill their new roles.
Ms Wensley said she had no doubt that they'd do a good job.
"I am pleased to make these appointments," she said.

it seems as if my ssh rule for traffic coming from WAN towards a

The configuration is very simple. And without the rule deny

So routing etc. is fine.

Has anyone a hint?

Emphasizing independent research and one-on-one collaboration with faculty members, Gettysburg's interdisciplinary biochemistry-molecular biology major requires study in the biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics departments, consistent with recommendations of the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
Students gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art biochemical analysis and recombinant DNA technology as they examine the structures and chemical reactions within living cells. A capstone research project frequently results in professional publications co-authored by students and professors or presentations at scientific meetings.
Students receive excellent preparation for graduate study, medical school, or careers in a broad range of fields.
Students may earn a B.S. degree in biochemistry and molecular biology by completing the following requirements:
- Biology 111 Introduction to Ecology and Evolution (or Biology 113)
- Biology 112 Form and Function of Living Organisms
- Biology 211 Genetics
- Biology 212 Cell Biology
- Biology 351* Molecular Genetics

But the bigger confusion concerned Citizens United. It turns out, of course, that not a dollar that made its way into the Walker or Barrett campaign would have been kept out had Citizens United gone the other way at the Supreme Court. Citizens United related not to contributions to candidates' campaigns, but to contributions by corporations and unions to organizations that made independent expenditures. In Wisconsin, Walker outraised Barrett by $30 million to $4 million. This occurred in part because Walker raised money for months before he knew who his opponent would be. Also, Wisconsin law, both before Citizens United and after, allows a governor to raise unlimited contributions for such a recall effort.
Barrett had to raise money for the Democratic primary fight and then raise more in the short period before the recall vote, with lower limits on the maximum size of his contributions, also as set by Wisconsin law. Were a Republican effort made to recall a Democratic governor in Wisconsin, the exact same limits for both the governor and the recall opponent would have been in place, favoring the Democratic incumbent. The outside party expenditures favored Walker by $15 to $5 million without counting the union money, and favored the recall effort by $25 million to $15 million, with the union money included.
In other words, the outside expenditures favored Barrett and the recall, after including the union contributions. The unions spent a lot of money before the Democratic candidate was known, to gather the roughly one million signatures that were sufficient to generate the recall election and then to help their preferred candidate in the Democratic primary (who lost). It is entirely artificial to include only union money in the one month after Barrett was nominated.
Greg Sargent, a left-wing columnist for the Washington Post, admitted that the Walker/Barrett funding disparity had its roots in state law:

text: Dear Jim, Richard, Hitoshi, I am writing you to request comments from the WWS concerning the Change Configuration Request that has been submitted by C.Adolphsen today (Oct.30, 2006) of the Main Linac (ML) systems. The notice of this Change Conriguration Request (CCR#20) has been circulated within GDE and is available at http://lcdev.kek.jp/ML/PubCCB/msg00095.html A topic of particular relevance to you colleagues in the physics community is bullet 2, which seeks to eliminate the previously assumed 3.5% RF unit overhead. This is part of attempts by the ML Area Group leaders to reduce the ML construction cost by up to 5%. This means that with the proposed new baseline, the IP beam energy of 250GeV will be available only when ALL the RF units are in operation, giving the beams an acc grdient of 31.5MV/m on average. Although hard to quantify, if a similar availability assumption is made for the ML units as before, a practically likely standard beam energy could be as low as ~240GeV (This is a reference number that Toge is offering; not a statement by ML AG leaders). While I surmise that this change is most likely acceptable to you, the CCB would like to hear your opinion, comments or remarks (yes, no, maybe, etc) in writing, for our record of the Change Config process. While I hear that the entire GDE team is hoping to "freeze" the pre-RDR ILC configuration towards the end of November, because of the competing CCRs that CCB have to process simultaneously, I would greatly appreciate if you could give me your WWS statements Before the end of Valencia GDE meeting Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation on this matter. Sincerely, - Nobu Toge (KEK, Accelerator Lab) email: toge@xxxxxxxxxxxx voice: +81-29-864-5224 fax: +81-29-864-3182

The Pa50 has many attributes that make it worth its price, but one of the real drawbacks is the manual. You soon realize that it is very poorly organized with an index that lacks information as well. Most styles are well done, as are the editable sounds. Overall its a decent board, but the 64 notes of polyphony can stall out sometimes leaving you wishing you would have purchased something with 96 or better polyphony.

Breakfast. Cleanliness. Friendliness of employees N/a
The room was comfortable. The breakfast was good. Everything was acceptable
The staff was very sweet and accommodating . The breakfast was outstanding. I wanted to stay downtown but it was less than half a mile from the downtown area which was as cute as can be. Plenty of shopping , restaurant and bars. The whole town was welcoming and kind but don't tell anybody or everybody will go there! Haha!
Bottom line: the place was clean and adequate; the staff was friendly and provided everything needed. Don't go expecting the Waldorf. But if you chose this hotel expecting that, that is on you. Perfectly fine budget place. The hotel, just like all hotels in the area, heavily jacked up prices for the holiday. Partially expected, but for a perfectly adequate--yet budget--hotel, it was disappointing to pay that much.
Needed to be updated really badly
The staff were wonderful. Rooms were very clean. No place to hang clothes, sink needed to be replaced.
Spacious and overall coziness of the room suites. Great value given how large the suites are. Great location as well...as everything in small Apalachicola is walkable. Attention to detail/overall cleanliness of showers/bathroom areas. Attention to detail/overall cleanliness of corridors outside the rooms.

Companies offering free gas to attract business
Associated Press | June 8
Two magic words are turning consumers' heads lately. Not ''Get rich'' or ''Lose weight.'' Try ''Free gas.'' Businesses from banks and hotels to golf-club makers and blood-donation centers are offering promotions that involve free gas -- generating more attention and goodwill from price-stunned drivers than traditional promotions might deliver.

Computer literacy tests: Are you human?
TIME Magazine | June 5
This electronic hoop you have to jump through was invented in 2000 by a team of programmers at
Carnegie Mellon
University. Somebody at Yahoo! had gone to them, complaining that criminals were taking advantage of Yahoo! Mail--they were using software to automatically create thousands of e-mail accounts very quickly, then using those accounts to send out spam. The Carnegie Mellon team came back with the CAPTCHA. (It stands for "completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart"; no, the acronym doesn't really fit.) The point of the CAPTCHA is that reading those swirly letters is something that computers aren't very good at. If you can read them, you're probably not a piece of software run by a spammer. Congratulations--you can have an e-mail account.

Three Rivers Arts Festival: Quilt artist shows it's hip to be square
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette | June 11
You'd never know from looking at the vibrant, confident and innovative works that fill Regina Gouger Miller Gallery that Nancy Crow seriously considered giving up quilt-making a couple of decades ago. The Ohio artist, credited with being one of the early revolutionaries of the art quilt movement and whose pieces now command five figures, became disillusioned with the restraints of the form's traditional heritage. "By 1990, I had had it with quilt-making," she told an interviewer. That she found a way out of her creative block is evident in the 55 exquisite quilts -- and I use that designation expansively -- in "Nancy Crow: Works From 1988-2008" on the

No surprise: Pens' Crosby is an MVP finalist
It takes a team effort to win a Stanley Cup, but it could be argued that one man carried the Penguins into the NHL playoffs this season.
Sidney Crosby, who led the league in goals, is one of three nominees for the Hart Trophy, which is awarded to the NHL's most valuable player and is based soley on regular-season performances.
Washington's Alex Ovechkin, who has won two straight MVPs, and Vancouver's Henrik Sedin, who outlasted Crosby and Ovechkin for the NHL scoring title, are the other two nominees.
The Penguins' locker room is squarely behind its captain.
"He'd definitely get my vote," Penguins forward Craig Adams said. "We know where we'd probably be without him."
Adams didn't elaborate on just where the Penguins would be without Crosby, but it can safely be assumed the defending Stanley Cup champions wouldn't be one of eight teams remaining in the postseason without the 22-year-old superstar.
Penguins backup goalie Brent Johnson, who is one of two players on the roster to play with Crosby and Ovechkin, also supports his teammate.
"He'd be No. 1 on my ballot," Johnson said. "Both of those guys are great, and they're both hard workers. Sid is inspirational. The way he works really can't be duplicated, but it inspires you to work as hard as you can. He's special like that."
Crosby wanted to improve on two perceived weaknesses, goal scoring and faceoffs, this season. And so, after willing himself to become better in both categories, Crosby didn't just improve in those areas but led the league in goals and faceoffs won.
"I don't think people realize just how hard he works," defenseman Alex Goligoski said. "He's still here practicing every day, even when people tell him to take a day off. That really does rub off on us. I don't know if he realizes it or not, but we follow him because of that."
The Hart Trophy winner won't be announced until a few days after a more important piece of hardware — the Stanley Cup — is awarded. And Crosby makes it clear that only playoff glory is on his mind.
"It feels good," he said. "I don't really think about the season or reflect on the season too often. I try to be consistent as much as you can. I wanted to score a little more this year. That was something I wanted to improve in, and I think I did."
Crosby's modesty is almost as legendary as his worth ethic, but his teammates are tooting his horn. Especially now, with Ovechkin stunningly eliminated from the playoffs, the hockey world's spotlight belongs to Crosby.
Who will snatch this year's MVP is anyone's guess — Crosby, Ovechkin and Sedin are all worthy candidates — but the Penguins believe their leader deserves the award again - he also won it in 2007.
"He is such a great player," Johnson said. "He is very deserving of that award."
SIDNEY CROSBY — Penguins center
Notable: Finished tied for the NHL lead in goals (51) and second in points (109) for the Penguins, who finished with the East's third-best point total.
ALEX OVECHKIN — Capitals left wing
Notable: Scored 50 goals and recorded 109 points despite missing 10 games for the NHL-leading Capitals.
HENRIK SEDIN — Canucks center
Notable: On the strength of a league-best 83 assists, he recorded 112 points, 30 more than his previous best, to win his first NHL scoring title.

Lotus corniculatus
|Author: Dr. John Frame
Common names.
Birdsfoot trefoil, birds-foot trefoil, upright trefoil, common
Glabrous to sparsely pubescent perennial plant, though not a long-lived perennial; life span from two to four years. Growth form ranges from prostrate to erect with numerous stems arising from a basal, well developed crown and branches arising from leaf axils. Primary growth comes from the crown but regrowth comes from buds formed at nodes on the stubble left after defoliation. Leaves are pentafoliate, alternately on short stalks with the two leaflets at the petiole base resembling stipules. The assymetrical pointed leaflets are mainly glabrous and are more slender and paler green than those of greater lotus.
Inflorescences with up to eight flowers, are umbel-like cymes at the end of long axillary branches. The calyx is a dentate tube and the yellow five-petalled corolla is often tinged red. The flowering period is indeterminate and so seed is set over an extended period in summer. The self-sterile plants are cross-pollinated, mainly by honey bees. Seed pods, 2-5 cm long, contain l5-20 seeds attached to the ventral suture; the seeds are released by a sudden split of the pod along both sutures after one to two weeks of ripening during which the pods change from green to brown. The seeds vary from round to oval in shape and from greenish yellow to dark brown in colour. The plant root system consists of a deep tap root with numerous secondary roots which have a good lateral spread. Some Moroccan genotypes produce rhizomes which arise from axillary buds on stem bases.
Natural distribution in western Europe and north Africa; secondary distribution in north-east and west-central USA, south-east Canada, southern Latin America. Also in eastern and central Europe, and parts of Asia. Circa l M ha grown in USA and 200 000 ha in Canada (Beuselinck and Grant, l995).
Perennial plant varying from prostrate to erect types, the former being more tolerant of poor drainage. Adapted to acid, infertile soils and also to saline soils. Has weak seedling emergence and a slow establishment phase. Moderate degree of drought resistance. Suited to low-input, extensive systems of animal production. Its range of adaptation is extending to warmer climes, e.g. south-east USA., because of the introduction of Mediterranean germ plasm into plant breeding (Hoveland et al., l990).
Season of growth.
Spring to autumn, but peak growth in mid summer.
Frost tolerance and regrowth.
Winter hardiness depends on cultivar provenance. North American and European cultivars are the most tolerant of low temperatures but are adversely affected by severe winters with fluctuating temperatures (Beuselinck and Grant, l995).
Optimum summer temperature for growth is circa 240C. At high summer temperatures susceptibility to fungal diseases increases.
Intolerant of shading from other plants, particularly during establishment. Is a long-day plant requiring daylengths of over l6 hours for full flowering.
Drought tolerant.
Moderately drought resistant, but less so than lucerne (Peterson et al., l992).
Tolerance of flooding.
Tolerates poor soil drainage, and is more tolerant of flooding than lucerne, but not highly tolerant.
Soil requirements.
Because of its adaptation to infertile and acidic soils, it can be regarded as a pioneer forage legume. Has a moderate degree of tolerance to soil salinity . However, its agronomic performance responds to improve soil pH, drainage and fertility. Application of P and K on infertile soils enhances forage yield, seed yield and winter hardiness (Russelle et al., l99l)
Rhizobial relationships.
Rhizobial inoculation of seed by effective, specific strains Rhizobium and Bradyrhizobium are needed when sowing, particularly on land where birdsfoot trefoil has not been cultivated before. Root nodules senesce after plant defoliation and a new generation develops during plant regrowth (Vance et al., l982).
Ability to spread naturally.
Mature seed from late-cut hay or seed crops can aid rejuvenation of stands. Intermittent flowering and seed set during the season from plants which have not been fully grazed down, as happens with less erect types, is another source of shed seed and grazed stands can be managed to allow a seed setting and shedding phase so as to maintain stand density.
Land preparation for establishment.
A well-cultivated, uniform, firm seed bed is required for best results since the small seeds require shallow sowing.
Sowing methods.
The seed is normally drilled or broadcast in spring after conventional seed-bed cultivations; broadcasting, surface oversowing and direct drilling (sod seeding) have been used on marginal land and roughland in north-east North America (Kunelius et al., l982) and in New Zealand (Lowther et al., l996).
Sowing time and rate.
Best sown in spring. If sown in autumn, sufficient time is needed for plants to develop before the onset of winter cold. Birdsfoot trefoil is sown at 6-l0 kg/ha for monocultures and at 3-5 kg/ha when sown with grasses, e.g. timothy (Phleum pratense), smooth-stalked meadow grass (Poa pratensis), red fescue (Festuca rubra). More competitive grasses, e.g. perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne), cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata) can also be used as companion grasses but such stands require management to favour regrowth and reseeding of the birdsfoot trefoil (Sheaffer et al., l984).
Number of seeds per kg.
715 000 to 835 000.
Percentage hard seeds.
Can reach 50% or more but germination capacity of hard seeds can be high (Hampton et al., l987).
Seed treatment before sowing.
Scarification or soaking the seeds in a gypsum solution reduces the percentage of hard seeds present.
Nutrient requirements.
Although adapted to low soil fertility, improvement of fertility by P and K application, and lime as required to raise soil pH, increase LAI, specific leaf mass and stem branching (Russelle et al., l985). Forage yield, seed yield and winter hardiness are enhanced on infertile, but not fertile soils, by P and K application (Russelle et al., l99l).
Compatibility with grasses and other legumes.
Compatible with non-aggressive grasses such as timothy, smooth-stalked meadow grass and brome grasses.
Ability to compete with weeds.
Because of its slow establishment ability, does not compete well then with broad-leaved weeds or aggressive volunteer grass weeds. Grass/birdsfoot trefoil associations are less prone to weed invasion generally than a birdsfoot trefoil monoculture.
Tolerance of herbicides.
Tolerates the so-called clover-safe herbicides e.g. MCPB, 2,4-DB, benazolin types, but not the less-selective herbicides.
Seedling vigour.
Initially very poor and so clean seed beds are essential for a good establishment. Open swards are necessary when oversowing.
Vigour of growth and growth rhythm.
Once established, is capable of vigorous growth when well fertilized. Grows slowly during early spring and peaks in summer. Spring growth is directly proportional to the build-up of storage carbohydates in the roots (Alison & Hoveland, l989).
Nitrogen-fixing ability.
N-fixation of 60-l38 kg/ha is cited for North America (Heichel et al., l985; Farnham and George, l994). When grown in association with grass, most of the N in birdsfoot trefoil is derived from N2-fixation on account of the soil N being competitively taken up by the grass; the grass also benefits from transfer of fixed N from the legume (Farnham and George, l994).
Response to defoliation.
Regrowth depends on a sufficiency of axillary buds and photosynthesizing foliage being left after defoliation. This can be done by ensuring that adequate sites for regrowth remain after cutting crops for hay or silage, or by controlling the severity of defoliation when grazing. Prostrate cultivars are capable of more vigorous regrowth than erect types since more of their foliage escapes defoliation.
Grazing management.
Some form of rotational grazing, and lax rather than severe, is the system most favourable to plant persistence and yield, particularly for erect-growing cultivars. This method also avoids the risk of birdsfoot trefoil being selectively overgrazed in mixed swards. A typical target stubble height is 5 to l0 cm since this leaves sites for regrowth on the stem stubble, but low-growing types can tolerate a lower stubble height because their procumbent growth habit ensures the presence of growth sites.
Breeding system.
Birdsfoot trefoil is a tetraploid with a chromosome number of 2n=4x=24, though diploid types have been identified; outcrossing breeding system by insect pollen vectors.
Breeding objectives.
Improvement in germination capacity of seeds at low temperatures, seedling vigour, yield, seed pod indehiscence and winter hardiness.
Dry matter yields.
Yields depending upon growing conditions. With l7 accessions on a free-draining calcareous soil in the UK, DM yields ranged from l0-l7 t/ha for birdsfoot trefoil/grass associations and from 6 to l4 t/ha for monocultures (Bullard and Crawford, l995). Such high yields would not be attainable on land of poor fertility soils.
Suitability for hay and silage.
Cultivars with an erect growth habit are the best suited for hay or silage cropping. Two or three cuts can usually be taken depending upon the length of the growing season. Yields are optimal at 6-week cutting intervals (Hoveland and Fales, l985). A companion grass improves stand density, reduces crop lodging and aids mechancal handling during hay making. The cutting height should be circa l0 cm so as to leave some foliage for photosynthesis and also allow axillary bud development from the stubble.
Value as standover or deferred feed.
Stockpiling in spring for summer utilization has been reported though forage quality declines with increasing time before use (Collins, l982).
Feeding value.
Largely determined by stage of growth at time of utilization since feeding value falls with increasing maturity and associated stemminess. Although only one-third of the DM accumulates by the late vegetative stage, more than half the maximum amount of nutrients accumulates by then, and leaves generally have a higher mineral content than shoots, especially after the start of flowering (McGraw et al., 1986). The rate of decline of forage digestibility is greater in late than in early season (Buxton et al., l985). The overall forage quality under drought conditions is better than lucerne because of higher leaf:stem ratio, delayed maturity and improved quality of each plant fraction (Peterson et al., l992).
The presence of condensed tannins in the leaves and stems prevent bloating in ruminants and are nutritionally advantageous since they protect plant proteins in the rumen from degradation, thus allowing more protein to be utilized in the small intestine (Waghorn et al., l987). The types and combination of essential amino acids in birdsfoot trefoil are optimal for the production of high quality animal products (Waghorn et al., l990). The nutritional value of condensed tannins depends upon their concentration in the forage and levels of 20-40 g/kg DM are thought to be beneficial (Barry, l989).
Highly acceptable forage whether at vegetative stage for grazing or as conserved hay or silage.
Seed harvesting methods.
Seed production in North America is concentrated within latitudes 40-500N, e.g. in Canada and the upper mid-west of the USA., since long photoperiods and cool temperatures suit the physiological needs of the plant for seed production (Beuselinck, l997). Seed crops require careful timing and handling at harvesting to avoid high seed losses from pod dehiscence. Cutting and swathing the crop to dry slowly, or the use of chemical desiccation of the standing crop minimises pod shatter and loss of seeds.
Seed yields.
Yields may reach 600 kg/ha but generally range from 50 to l75 kg/ha with a typical average of l00 kg/ha or less (McGraw et al., l986). The low seed yields achieved are the result of the indeterminate flowering habit, the limited supply of photosynthate to reproductive growth, flower and seed pod abortion, and pod dehiscence (McGraw and Beuselinck, l983).
Increased seed yield has been obtained from use of the growth regulator, paclobutrazol, to promote reproductive development and shorten the flowering period (Li and Hill, l989).
Seed quality standards.
Using the Fodder Plant Seeds Regulations of the United Kingdom as an example, certified seed require a minimum germination of 75% and a maximum permissible hard seed content of 40%, both percentages by number of pure seeds in the sample. The required analytical purity is 95% by weight for certified and commercial seed. The maximum total content of seeds of other plants permissible, also expressed as % by weight, is l.8% for certified seed and 2.8% for commercial seed.
There are two distinct types. European and Empire. The former has a faster seedling growth, thicker stems, a more upright growth, a more determinate flowering period and a faster regrowth after grazing (Grant and Marten, l985). The cultivars Empire, Dawn, Leo, Norcen and Carroll are among the most extensively used in North America (Beuselinck and Grant, l995). El Boyero, Quimey and San Gabriel are Latin American examples. Erect-growing cultivars are less persistent than low-growing cultivars under seven grazing pressure, one cause being that fewer leaves are left on the stubble to assist regrowt by their photsynthesis.
Crown and root rots, caused by a combination of Fusarium, Sclerotinia and Rhizoctonia spp. are the most significant diseases and are a factor in lack of plant persistence in south-east USA. (Beuselinck and Grant, l995).
Birdsfoot trefoil is susceptible to root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus penetrans) and root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.). A number of pests can adversely affect seed crops e.g. mirids (Lygus lineolaris), alfalfa plant bug (Adelphocoris lincolaris) but are controllable by standard pesticides (Wipfli et al., l990a,b). Seed chalcids (Bruchophagus platypterus) also reduce seed yield and are only controllable by early-season harvesting and burning plant debris after harvesting to reduce the population.
Main attributes.
A pioneer, perennial legume adapted to wet, acid, infertile soil conditions. Drought resistant. Different cultivars available for mainly conservation and mainly grazing managements. Highly acceptable forage giving good animal performance. Does not cause bloat in cattle because of presence of condensed tannins.
Main shortcomings.
Not a forage legume for high fertility soils where it is outperformed by other major forage legumes. Has a slow germination and weak seedling development. Seed production difficulties are a major limiting factor to its wider use.
Excellent individual animal performance reported for monocultures and birdsfoot trefoil/grass stands (Marten et al., l987). Performance is aided by the content of condensed tannins which improves the efficiency of protein metabolism; for example, in a comparison of birdsfoot trefoil and lucerne grazed by ewes and lambs, ewe wool production and lamb carcass weight were higher for birdsfoot trefoil (Douglas et al., l995).

Among life's most reliable performance indicators, when your wife screams at you for something you've written, you know you've got a problem.
That's what happened to the News Corp blogger Andrew Bolt when he started dancing on
Whitlam passed away in the early morning of Tuesday, October 21. By 8.13am Bolt was attacking him, particularly the Whitlam government's decision to "end the assimilation project, both for Aborigines and immigrants".
Bolt thought it was more important to vent, for the 865th time, his personal obsession with race than to show respect for the Whitlam family in its moment of grief.
He thought that abusing a fallen prime minister was more important than conveying respect for the pinnacle of Australian democracy: the office of prime minister itself.
Perhaps, in her anger, Mrs Bolt is an advocate of the timeless adage, passed down by generations of Australian mothers and grandmothers, that "if you can't say something good about someone who has just died, don't say anything at all".
It's not as if her husband is short of things to say – space fillers for this role in the media. He could have published his 539th condemnation of the ABC, for instance, or his 724th denial of climate change.
But that's the thing about fanaticism: it blurs one's judgment. It makes political nutters regurgitate their ideological obsessions, blind to the respectful norms of the rest of society.
While 99 per cent of people lead normal, reasonably balanced lives, in which the emotions of life and death are seen as vastly more important than party politics, inside Australia's media bubble there's a group of activists with a different mindset. They regard all aspects of life as inherently political.
Thus for Bolt, Whitlam's death had nothing to do with the passing of a father, a grandfather, a brother – the mournful sorrow of a grieving family. It was solely a political event, requiring a right-wing response.
But it wasn't just Bolt. If the sounds of fury in his household had been one-off, an aberrant domestic dispute between husband and wife, it might have been possible to ignore his vindictiveness.
The right-wing hunting pack
Regrettably, Bolt's response was typical of the right-wing hunting pack. Like a gang of skinheads kicking over tombstones, Gerard Henderson, Greg Sheridan, Miranda Devine and Rowan Dean also rushed into print, vilifying Whitlam within days of his death.
In a piercing commentary on his own values, Henderson said that praise of the former prime minister had made him unwell, forcing him to "lie on the floor with a wet towel on his forehead".
This is part of a pattern in our national life – an echo of Alan Jones's slur that Julia Gillard's father had "died of shame".
Australian conservatives don't do death well.
Rhetorically, they claim to respect the institutions of family and democracy, but in moments of loss and personal tragedy, their true nature surfaces: displaying a subhuman meanness of spirit.
In objecting to the media's praise of Whitlam, Bolt asked: "Will John Howard, a conservative who ruled four times longer and left the economy in wonderful shape, be given this massive and worshipful coverage?"
I hope so. Anyone who has served our country in its highest office deserves a reverential period of national mourning – similar in tone to Whitlam's memorial service on Wednesday.
Howard wasn't my cup of tea, but when the time comes, I won't be critical of his public record. It's not that hard to hold one's tongue out of consideration for a family feeling the loss of a well-loved patriarch.
For many years, in and outside Parliament, I gave Howard both barrels. A repeat dose at the time of his passing would be a sign of OPD: obsessive political disorder.
Even worse, it would raise the spectre of that most horrible thought in life: being like Andrew Bolt.

Jockey Patrick Valenzuela, seeking reinstatement from a suspension that has been in effect since July 2, testified Sunday that he was unaware that he was required to provide hair samples for drug testing.The 41-year-old jockey hasn't ridden since being suspended for failure to comply with the terms of his conditional license, which was amended after a hearing on May 18 to include hair testing. That decision came after the jockey failed to submit to a urine test in January.
At his hearing before Del Mar stewards, Valenzuela was one of three witnesses to testify over three hours Sunday morning. It was the third and final day of the hearing, which required seven hours to complete. It began Thursday and was resumed Friday. Stewards indicated a decision on Valenzuela's will be announced this week.
According to Valenzuela, who was called to testify by deputy attorney general Jim Ahern, he never received a copy of the administrative order dated May 26. It directed the rider to be subjected to hair follicle testing. Ahern noted that the order had been sent both to Valenzuela's home via certified mail and also to his attorney.
Valenzuela said he wasn't aware of it. He said he didn't learn that hair testing was required of him until he reported to ride at Hollywood Park on July 1.
"I think I heard it first from Corey Nakatani in the jocks' room," Valenzuela testified. "I knew I was suspended another month, that's what I knew. (Agent) Corey Black told me. I didn't know it was in (the administrative order) at all. They said they were going to apply some other testing but I didn't know what they were talking about."
Also testifying on Sunday was California Horse Racing Board supervising investigator Mike Kilpack, as well as CHRB senior special investigator Richard Guerrero. Both men recited Valenzuela's successful testing history since being issued his conditional license in 2001. But they said he had insufficient hair to be tested on the day he was suspended.
Guerrero said Valenzuela told him, "'I cannot give you what I do not have.'"
In his closing statements, Ahern reminded the three-member panel of stewards of Valenzuela's history with suspensions for drug infractions over his career, as well as the image of horseracing to the general public.
"There are two issues here," Ahern said. "The first is that the other riders and horses are safe as a result of Mr. Valenzuela riding and the second is the integrity of the sport of horseracing.
"There is a history here, a history of disciplinary problems and unfortunately it's a long history. The Board is asserting (Valenzuela) had proper notice to provide hair for testing based on the administrative order dated May 26 and requests that the ruling (suspending the jockey) be upheld."Valenzuela' attorney, Neil Papiano, argued that Valenzuela was not informed properly. "There were no notices given to Mr. Valenzuela regarding hair length requirement," Papiano said. "He never violated any rule in the order because he never refused to take any test, either hair or urine, and he never failed any test. It is inequitable and unjust to have him suspended."There is no document that says or no order to even grow hair, but he will even though it's a waste of time and money. (The suspension) has taken away his living and there's no real justification for that. The investigators want more than what's in the order. He wants to ride and he wants to earn a living. He's just asking for what's reasonable under the circumstances."

Is anyone researching YOUDE in Birkenhead?
I'm looking for information about Samuel YOUDE's marriage to Sarah HASTINGS at Birkenhead, St. John in 1919.
If Sarah is the daughter of Jacob, then she would be my relative. There was another Sarah born about the same time, who is the daughter of Albert HASTINGS. Albert and Jacob were brothers.

Under the auspices of the International Continental Drilling Program, the first effort to obtain a continuous core of rock from the deeply buried Chicxulub impact crater was initiated in December 2001. Known as the Chicxulub Scientific Drilling Project, the goal is to drill through the 500 to 1000 meter thick sequence of sedimentary rocks that cover the crater to obtain samples of impact breccias and impact melt created within the approximately 180 km diameter crater. Professor Kring at the University of Arizona (UA) is on the project's Science Team and a co-investigator of the project. In February, Kring and one of his UA undergraduate students, Jake Bailey, worked at the drilling site with their colleagues from Mexico's universities.
|The drilling site is called Yaxcopoil-1, because it is located near the Yaxcopoil hacienda in the Yucatan, Mexico. This view was taken on a cool clear morning. Often conditions are hot and steamy or wet with rain. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|The Drilling Team is composed of people from DOSECC (Drilling, Observation, and Sampling of the Earth's Continental Crust, Inc.), which was initiated by the NSF and the University of Hawaii, and Pitsa, a drilling contractor in Mexico. In this view they are working on a core sample that they pulled up from a depth of about 1,270 meters (roughly 4,200 feet). They will then hand the core barrel to the geology team from the University of Arizona who will extract it and begin processing the sample. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|University of Arizona undergraduate student Jake Bailey is washing a rock core sample that the geology team received from the drilling team. Each section of rock core that is recovered from the borehole is about 3 meters (10 feet) long. While the sample is being washed, it is supported in a long white tray. As the sample is being washed, the geology team makes an initial assessment of the core. They determine the type of rock that was recovered, measure it, examine it for faults and other features that can be used to interpret the structure of the deeply buried crater. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|University of Arizona's Professor Kring holding a long segment of rock core that was recovered from about 4,200 feet. This core is composed of several layers of sedimentary rock that either represent a mammoth block of rock in the crater's impact breccias or the fractured floor beneath the crater. It is a sample of the rocks that were hit by the asteroid or comet that produced the vast Chicxulub crater. It is composed mostly of anhydrite (a calcium sulphate mineral) which, when vaporized in an impact event, produces sulfur-oxide gases that can alter Earth's climate. When injected into the atmosphere by the impact event, the sulfur-oxide gases form aerosols which cooled the Earth's surface and then eventually rained out of the atmosphere as sulfuric acid rain. This was probably one of the more severe consequences of the impact event and is likely partly responsible for the extinction of dinosaurs and other species 65 million years ago. Photograph by Jake Bailey, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|A pile of metal core barrels that will be added one at a time as the drilling project reaches greater depths. While the UA team was at the drilling site, one of these 3 meter (10 feet) long segments was added to the drilling stem every 2 to 2.5 hours. The DOSECC and Pitsa drilling team was doing a fantastic job, recovering 35 to 40 meters each day. This exceeds the goal of 25 to 30 meters/day and is helping produce an exceptional core sample. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|Operations at the drilling site occur 24 hrs/day, 7 days a week, including holidays. This is a view of the top of the drilling rig when the University of Arizona team was working one of the nighttime shifts. The cylinder in the center of the rig is designed to apply pressure to the diamond drill bit to help it penetrate deeper into the Earth's crust. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.
|Lights are needed for the drilling team and for the geology team to continue operations during the night. In this view the air is clear, but ground fog often rolls through the Yucatan forest at night, adding an eery glow to the scene. Photograph by David A. Kring, NASA/UA Space Imagery Center.

The rocks that bury the crater are the light-colored (approximately white) rocks in the top left portion of the image. The first of the impact breccias recovered in the crater are the green rocks in the top right and bottom half of the image. This image was taken at the core processing laboratory at the University of Yucatan in Merida, where the rock core is transported from the Yaxcopoil-1 drilling site each day. Photograph by David A.

This is a generalized diagram of how the Chicxulub impact crater may be structured. It is buried beneath several hundred to one thousand meters of sediment, so drilling is needed to sample rocks from the impact crater. The Chicxulub Scientific Drilling Project is designed to drill through the overlying sediments, the impact breccias, the impact melt, and into the underlying impact-fractured rock.

When Jake LaMotta steps into a boxing ring and obliterates his opponent, he's a prizefighter. But when he treats his family and friends the same way, he's a ticking time bomb, ready to go off at any moment. Though LaMotta wants his family's love, something always seems to come between them. Perhaps it's his violent bouts of paranoia and jealousy. This kind of rage helped make him a champ, but in real life, he winds up in the ring alone.

Cars are the stars
Page Tools
Jon-Jay Kersh has been called plenty of things - hoodlum, rev head, hoon. Now he is calling himself an artist.
"I believe these cars are art forms," says the Novocastrian, 26, the proud owner of a 1992 Toyota Corolla Seca.
Mr Kersh is one of 17 participants in Speedcity, an "accelerated performance event", organised as part of Newcastle's This Is Not Art festival, a gathering of writers, performers, film-makers and musicians.
As part of Speedcity, Mr Kersh helped organise a parade of some of Newcastle's most-worked-on cars, incorporating the vehicles into a parade of mechanised art.
Sally Sussman, a freelance theatre director, who organised Saturday night's parade, said Speedcity tied in neatly with This Is Not Art's philosophy of finding art in unusual places. "It's an aspect of popular culture that doesn't get much exposure."
Today is the last day of This Is Not Art, held in several venues in the centre of Newcastle.

THE competition regulator has confirmed its investigation into James Packer and Lachlan Murdoch's acquisition of Ten Network shares will also include the broadcaster's other billionaire shareholders, Gina Rinehart and Bruce Gordon.
But a document from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission clearly puts the potential conflict between Mr Packer and Mr Murdoch's pay TV (Foxtel) and free-to-air (Ten) interests at the centre of its inquiries.
The commission even left open the possibility that Ten's other main shareholders may help ensure the broadcaster is allowed to compete effectively against Mr Packer and Mr Murdoch's extensive other media interests.
In a letter inviting submissions dated last week - before Ms Rinehart accepted an invitation to join the Ten board - the commission formally detailed the concerns behind its investigation of the 18 per cent stake that has now been split between Mr Packer's Consolidated Press Holdings and Mr Murdoch's Illyria.
''The ACCC notes that the overlap between CPH, Illyria and Ten occurs in relation to the provision of content to consumers, the acquisition of content and the provision of advertising opportunities to advertisers,'' said the commission, which will consider the competition issues across these three areas.
The commission noted CPH's extensive interests in Foxtel.
Mr Packer's private company owns 25 per cent of the pay TV provider, and he also has interests in companies that provide content to Foxtel, Premier Media Group, and manage the pay TV provider's advertising.
In addition to his own media investments via Illyria, Mr Murdoch shares many of the same Foxtel interests as Mr Packer in his role as a director of News Corp.
The commission is seeking comment from the industry as to whether Mr Packer's and Mr Murdoch's interests in Ten ''are likely to change the incentives of Ten and Premier Media and Foxtel to compete vigorously for the acquisition of premium sporting content or other content in future''.
The commission acknowledged the recent acquisitions by Ms Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting, and Mr Gordon's Birketu, as well as Perpetual Investment's diminishing share, which easily exceed the Packer-Murdoch investment.
It invited comment on the ''likelihood'' that these shareholders would ''constrain'' Mr Packer and Mr Murdoch from ''influencing the operations of Ten in a way that would limit the extent that it competes against businesses owned by or associated with CPH and Illyria''.
Interested parties have until next Friday to make submissions to the commission.

It's the unsubstantiated belief of one NFL insider, but at this point, I'll take any evidence that the Giants and wide receiver Victor Cruz are closing in on a contract. ESPN's Chris Mortensen said during Tuesday's edition of "NFL32" that he would be "shocked" if the two sides didn't reach an agreement on a long-term deal before the start of next month's training camp. Mortensen then got specific, saying that he thinks that deal could come within "the next 10 days."
Fantasy Analysis:
I don't have a link to the sound bite, but believe me: That's what Mort said. As I've said before, I won't downgrade Cruz until we are well into August, he is still without a contract and is holding out of camp. But reaching a resolution sooner rather than later sure would be nice, if I may cast an understatement. A difference in guaranteed money is reportedly creating the distance between the two sides. As of now, Cruz is a low-end WR1 or high-end WR2.
