Lowes Foods Rolls Out eCommerce Platform
New features aim to improve customer experience
Following a successful pilot, Lowes Foods is expanding its innovative eCommerce platform to all 60 Lowes Foods-To-Go stores in Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
The pilot provided key insights into how shoppers use the new platform, and how it interacts with shop fulfillment, pick-up at the store and home delivery, according to Unata, Lowes' technology partner and provider of 1-to-1 omni-commerce solutions.
Some of the technology included in the platform:
- Ways to Shop: This feature allows shoppers to view the entire product catalogue by any combination of filters, including previously purchased, on sale, organic, gluten-free, local and more. They can also sort through products based on popularity, personal relevance, date of last purchase, pricing and more.
- Complex Offers: This feature reflects all in-store offers, including complex offers, which are often not available online. They usually involve multiple products and SKUs redeemed after meeting set criteria. An example is "spend more than $25 and get $5 off." Shoppers are able to view their progress toward redeeming an offer as they add more items to their shopping cart. Their estimated total accurately adjusts along the way.
"We have been incredibly pleased by the success of our pilot," said Michael Moore, CMO at Lowes Foods. "Our collaboration has allowed us to improve upon the experience in real-time before moving ahead with full roll out. We have ambitious plans for providing a personalized experience for every Lowes Foods guest, no matter if they engage with us digitally or within one of our stores. We are confident that the continuous improvement within our digital shopping experience will result in even stronger guest satisfaction, deeper loyalty and larger baskets."

Free T-Shirts For The Best Questions Or Heretical Statements About Java EE 5 / Netbeans
During the free talk at the Java User Group / Netbeans User Group at 24.1.2008, 6:00 PM in Munich with the really short title "Lightweight Java EE 5/6 architectures with EJB 3.X, JPA 1,X and JSF" :-), I will give away some cool, brand new Netbeans 6.0 T-Shirts for the best questions about Java EE 5/Netbeans or heretical statements as well. I especially like questions about real world scenarios, which (potentially) cannot be resolved with plain Java EE 5 :-).
I will show lot of of code and explain in detail the Passive View/Supervising Controller Presentation Patterns, show/hack some examples (some from p4j5) in real time for Fluent Interfaces/Domain Driven Design and JSF DataBinding and use Glassfish V2 and JavaDB for deployment. I would like to talk about the future and potential features of EJB 3.1, JPA 2.0 and Java EE 6 as well (briefly - to gather your feedback).
T-Shirts are great tool to motivate people for participation :-). Warning: at the Sun Tech Days in Frankfurt, a participant of my workshop promised me to find an example for a serverside, real world use case which cannot be efficiently solved with today EJB 3 - interceptors. ...we were able to find a solution for every request (however he got a t-shirt anyway :-)) -.

We tried something a little different and made metamucil slime! Usually we make our simple Homemade Liquid Starch Slime recipe because it is so quick and easy to get a perfect slime anytime. However, I had purchased a generic brand tub of Metamucil Fiber supplement powder because I heard you could make a neat flubber like slime that has an interesting but not to messy consistency. Perfect for Halloween science and of course, Vampire Slime!
We dressed up our metamucil slime with a set of Mr. Potato Head's vampire teeth! You could also find those fake waxy vampire teeth that you can put in your mouth. I have wanted to make metamucil slime, but after a couple failed tries, I gave up and shelved my container of generic fiber supplement. I knew this metallic slime would be and awesome Halloween theme, so we made spooky vampire's blood!
YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE: Alternative Slime Recipes
This time I checked out Chemistry.com to see how they made their metamucil slime, but ended up with my own variation on the stove top instead of the microwave. If you want the microwave version, check out their recipe. You just can't make a whole lot at one time.
Please note: This is taste safe but should not be considered edible and should not be presented to kids as edible slime. However, metamucil slime is great if you want to try slime with your kids but they tend to put things in their mouth! We have two truly edible slimes {though not tasty} here and here with one being Snot Slime!
Metamucil fiber supplement powder or generic brand equivalent {the main ingredient needs to be psyllium husk}
1 cup measure and 1 tsp measure
food coloring (optional)
For the amount of Metamucil slime pictured which is about 1 cup's worth, mix 3 tsp's of your fiber powder {we used generic equivalent of Metamucil to save money} with approx 3 cups of water. You can mix this right in your pan. I added a few drops of red food coloring to make it look like blood. Otherwise your Metamucil slime will have an orange hue.
YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE: Favorite Fall Slimes
Place on stove top and bring to a boil. Let boil for 3-5 minutes and then remove from heat and cool for a minute. Use a spoon to check for consistency. It's in that cooling minute when you really see how the slime consistency forms. It usually takes about 3 rounds of this. If you find at the 3rd round it still seems loose, set it to the side for a few extra minutes. As it cools it thickens. If you go to far you will burn it {I learned that!}. Stay by your stover as it can boil over {Learned that too}!
When you are finished cooking your Metamucil slime, let it cool on a plate. Once cooled, store in an air tight container at room temperature for a few weeks or pop in the fridge for longer. Now, if you have added red food coloring, fingers will be tinged red for a bit. However, I found that the more we played with it, the less red our fingers became. Our liquid starch slime does not leave colored fingers, but the metamucil slime is a bit different.
YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE: Creepy Halloween Science Ideas
The science is simple. The active ingredient which is the psyllium husk and water, thicken when heated. The water is absorbed and you have a flubber like blob substance which is your new slime!
The consistency of metamucil slime is much different than our traditional slime play.
It's looser and thinner, but still does not leave hands with a messy feeling. It does not break apart.
It feels cool and jiggly in your hands and has a fun wiggly movement!
We decide on a Vampire's Blood Slime theme since it isn't as thick as a typical slime.
Terrific any time of the year for a quick project and science in the kitchen!

Linotype Master Drawings collectionPOLITE
A rare piece of British industrial history.
From the late 19th century to the mid-1970s most books, newspapers, magazines and literature used the Linotype machine to set type. Every one of these machines used a set of master drawings to create the fonts. There are two surviving collections of these master drawings.
The best sets have been archive-boxed and are now available to own. Each set contains the upper and lower case alphabet, numbers, symbols and ligatures. The sets are unique and variable original items dating anywhere from the 1890s to, usually, the 1940s.
You can read more about this very special archive here.
The incomplete sets of these drawings are available individually – but a number of complete sets exist. In an effort to ensure the remaining sets stay intact, they are now available only as boxed sets. Each font has a different quantity of drawings, but all contain around 80-100 drawings. Each drawing is around 32 x 32 cm in size.
Price includes courier shipping upgrade worldwide.

Classical » Film Score
Plenty of people who think they don't like classical music nevertheless listen to and enjoy a good deal of it as accompaniment to movies, and even quite difficult musical styles have been successfully employed by film composers. Music has been used to accompany films since at least 1892, going from live accompaniment for silent films to the full orchestral soundtrack scores of today, with prominent composers ranging from Sergei Prokofiev to Hans Zimmer. The genre also encompasses music composed for television, for video games, and for other modern media where music can enhance the user's visual experience.Read More

The Vratix were a species of sentient insects that lived on Thyferra and produced bacta. They were kind of like the buggers, except they weren't as obnoxious or evil (they were actually quite nice folks, really, as two-meter ant-people go). Unfortunately, some of them were absorbed by the bugger hive mind during the Dark Nest Crisis and started a revolt, which kriffed up the bacta supply for a while.
Vratix think that sight and sound are secondary and, therefore, deceptive senses, and believe that in order to effectively communicate, they have to feel you up like the crotch of a loved one.

When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder, Will You Be There? (3 of 3) by Steve Wagers
This content is part of a series.When The Roll is Called Up Yonder, Will You Be There? (3 of 3)
Here Comes The Judge
Pastor Steve N. Wagers
Revelation 20:11-15
1. I remember reading of a story, many years ago, of a man and his son who visited a local general store. This was in the day of horse and wagon. The man parked the horse and wagon outside the general store and went inside leaving his 4-year old son in the wagon all alone. Suddenly something startled the horses and they took off through the main street of town, with the wagon in tow. Needless to say, the little 4-year old boy was extremely frightened. A man happened to be walking down the street, and saw the whole event taking place. He quickly cut through an alley, and arrived just in time to jump onto the wagon and take the reigns and stop the horses. The action of the man quite possibly saved the life of that young boy. And, both the boy, and his father were extremely grateful to the man.
2. Twenty-five years later, the 4-old year boy is now a 29-year old man. In the past 25 years he had lived a life of crime and wickedness. Finally, one day, he was brought into court for arraignment. As he stood before the judge he looked up and noticed that the judge was the same man who 25 years earlier had saved his life. The man asked the judge if he recalled the incident. The judge did remember, and then expressed his regret that the young man had not been more of a model citizen. However, as he peered over his bench to look into the face of the young man he said, "Young man, 25 years ago I was your savior. Today, I am your judge!"
3. One day, at the Great White Throne Judgment, every lost person, from the beginning of time until the end, will stand before God. Today, He is your Savior. That day, He will be your judge.
4. Get the picture. The last person who will ever die has died. The last person who will ever be raised from the dead has been raised. Now comes the final fulfillment of one of the most solemn s ...

Amidst a sea of reporters, Tyson Gentry spoke Thursday afternoon at the
renovated locker room at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center.
Sitting in a wheelchair with his mother, father and sister by his side and head coach Jim Tressel nearby, the 21-year old Sandusky native shared for the first time his thoughts, feelings, emotions and future plans since a serious neck injury that has given him paralysis back in spring football practice at Ohio State in mid April.
The walk-on punter from Perkins High School suffered what's described as a fracture to the C4 vertebrae causing doctors to fuse the C3 and C5 vertebrae together. He currently has movement in his arms and some of his upper body.
Through intense physical therapy, Gentry hopes to accomplish one thing.
"I definitely have the goal of walking again," he said. "It's something I really would like to do."
Although Gentry might not be walking, he's already taking small steps.
He's in the process of moving into his own apartment on campus along with his sister. With help and support from his friends, family, teammates, coaches, teammates as well as fans, the transition has been going smoothly seen being released recently from the OSU medical center.
The outpouring of support from everyone has helped the spirits of the Gentry family. Through approval of Ohio State and the NCAA, a trust fund has been set up at National City Bank for anyone wishing to make donations to Gentry's recovery.
"It's been an amazing outpouring of support," said Gentry's father Bob, who played for the Buckeyes in the early 1970's under Woody Hayes.
Every day Gentry was hospitalized, he said he received letters and cards from Buckeye fans praying and wishing for his support, visits from teammates and encouragement from friends.
The letters haven't stopped.
"I can't say that I'm surprised," he says of the support. "Just because the Buckeye family is so large."
"At the very beginning, we got hundreds (of cards and letters) a day," Gentry added. "Even now we still get a lot."
Teammates such as Gentry's friend Ryan Pretorious have been there for Gentry throughout the process.
"The teammates have been wonderful," Tressel said. "Obviously just like anyone else, he had certain guys he hung around with and they've been out of this world. I'm not sure Ryan Pretorious ever missed a day seeing him. Maybe he hasn't missed a day."
It's not just his teammates and the rest of the Ohio State community showing support throughout this ordeal.
Among the biggest supporters for the Gentry family has been Adam Taliaferro, the injured Penn State cornerback who ironically, injured a spinal cord when the Nittany Lions were playing in Columbus against Ohio State on September 23, 2000.
"There may be an emphasis on Tyson the week we play Penn State because I think Adam and his father Andre are hoping to be here (for the game)," Tressel explained. "They have been wonderful with the Gentry family."
Tressel especially noted that this injury has brought out the best in fellow coaches and players.
He said it's already a tight-knit group but this injury has shown the human side of many of the great people in the coaching fraternity. Tressel said like the Gentry family, he has had the pleasure of speaking with several people that are familiar with this kind of tragedy, and have reached out to express their support and offer their wisdom.
"There's an interesting fraternity that have dealt with this adversity," Tressel said. "Obviously Penn State and their family have lived through it, and they know when there's a time of need. The Taliaferro family and I've talked to Coach (Joe) Paterno a number of times as he's been through it.
"I remember getting a call from Cornell University basketball staff because they've been through it this year," he added. "For six weeks all their player did was that he was able to drink through a straw – no other movement whatsoever. Then 16 or 17 weeks later, he was up standing and making some progress and they called and talked to the family. That student athlete talked to Tyson."
Another aspect of this injury that Tressel has dealt with is the personal remorse a coach must go through when a player is injured under his watch.
Tressel said that he had one of his players die nearly 31 years ago, but until this injury, had not seen anything more than a few broken bones and cuts and bruises.
"I remember very vividly the night that I had a player die," he recalled, "I was on my way to Cleveland to drop off the film and wait for it to be finished if that shows you how old I am, and I remember sitting there that night wondering to myself what I was doing.
"I just hope the Gentry family can have the awareness and togetherness to get through this," he added, "because no matter what, we can't go back and run the play again so that it doesn't happen – it did happen. What a horrible feeling it is."
The Gentry family has taken many pages out of the Tressel book to get through the injury, and continue to take the next steps in life for Tyson's recovery.
Gentry, a middle school teacher in Sandusky, says they must focus on Tyson's goals and look to the future in hopes of one day his walking again.
"We have a game plan like Coach Tressel has," Gentry added. "We're going to beat the opponent (the injury) and we're going to be a national championship family."
The road to Gentry's championship began on July 20 – Tyson's birthday.
He joined his teammates and coaches for a birthday party. The team sang happy birthday and gave him a birthday present.
"I got a home jersey, which was really neat," Gentry said. "I love that jersey. It's so neat. It would be in the locker room before the game and it's hanging in your locker and I just loved to hold on it and stare at it for a while before I would put it on my shoulder pads and go out. It was a really nice gift."
Putting on that jersey is just a part of the championship plan. It's always going to be a part of him.
As he gets moved into his new apartment with the aid of his family, it's just another small step towards the day when Gentry hopes to take a giant step.
Thursday was a good start.
Gentry Discusses Condition
Amidst a sea of reporters, Tyson Gentry spoke Thursday afternoon at the
renovated locker room at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center.

I love Apple juice. But it's turning me into a Reaganite. Wow. I bet you don't hear that every day of the week chums. I will elaborate.
The existence and the ready availability of apple juice for my own consumption challenges all of my irreligious and socialist tendencies to such a degree that I quail in primal fear at the thoughts which begin to pervade my mind. What? That's mental! Well, no it isn't, but before I explain this ridiculous claim I'll give my own unique, personal evaluation upon the lovely liquid.
Apple juice is the juice of apples, basically a liquid extract of that lovely fruit, the bane of Adam's and probably all of humanity's existence, if you follow certain Abrahamic monotheistic religious traditions. Apple juice can be made in factories. Just like peaches. I learnt this fact from a very interesting and informative song. It was called Peaches. Fittingly. Apparently peaches come in a can. They were put there by a man, although the exact identity of this man is never specified, in a factory of a town that is also unspecified. And if the protagonist of the piece had his "little way" he would consume his choice fruit of peaches "every day". This sums up my attitude to apple juice.
Apple juice is the fuel of my existence. Just like petroleum products are to today's modern economy, papyrus was to the Egyptians, and the ridiculously named unobtanium will be to future human society if the movie Avatar is of any credence. Apple juice is powering my fingers as I type this blog post at thirty-three minutes past three on a Wednesday morning, though the corn chips earlier also helped. When I walk home from my college of education, a nice cold drink of apple juice cools my prostrated form, sweating profusely from the Australian sun, and puts my brain into some semblance of working order. When suffering severe emotional stress, one can sip apple juice in between sobs, its sweet nectar soothing oneself into a state nearing contentment. Indeed, the fact that there will be a bottle of apple juice in the fridge, to be sampled at any time, puts me at ease. To use an old Australian phrase, "she'll be apples."
There is a twofold problem here however. Probably more, but I can only think of two right now, and my fingers are tired from practicing ukulele chords all day, but that's another story. The first is religious.
Given that apples are so referenced in the creation myths of Christianity, Judaism (I think), and possibly Islam (though I haven't checked) and most likely in various other belief systems across the planet, and given that the fruit is so delicious, intricately fashioned and perfect for my consumption, perhaps creationism has some credence. Is it even possible for apples to occur (that's a suitable verb isn't it?) through the process of evolution? I doubt this. Several years of atheism presented by bitter agnostics (the public education system) rails against this tendencies, and all sorts of evidence in favour of evolution pops up like the lid of a broken, and sadly obsolete, Walkman. Unfortunately I am to content to listen to hard evidence, or read hard facts. Mmm… Apple.
Number two! I get apple juice from a shop. I live in a little cardboard box/hovel/beachside apartment and cannot grow apple juice. Even if I sowed the little plot of grass outside the lobby with apple seeds, I doubt that anything would grow there due to the biting coastal winds, and even if they did, they would probably taste salty or get pinched by scrupulous holidaymakers from Melbourne or some other freezing wet slum from down south.
This being as it is, I am forced to obtain my apple juice from secondary providers, that is, one of the two big supermarket duopolies, Acme Foods and Vittle Corp. Well not really, I could go down to one of my local fruit shops or something, but one time I did that, and only succeeded in buying exactly the same brand of apple juice that I got from the evil people at approximately two times the price. Really it wouldn't make a difference anyway. Two fruit from the same tree.
So, bearing all above in mind, my apple juice habit, disgusting as it is, is dependent on capitalism. Now, we probably could set up some worker's collective in Nimbin or something, and grow apples there organically, and spike the juice with THC for extra effect but where would that get us in the long run? Probably not that far considering that I'm not self-disciplined enough to complete a music assignment, and I dislike the taste of THC. Therefore we must rely on capitalism, as a necessary evil in the obtaination (that's a word) of this utter necessity.
So despite all of my hatred of consumerism, waste and top hats, I must begrudgingly give capitalism some credit and thanks due to its irregular supply of apple juice, depending on my irregular supply of capital. And I do declare henceforth that the smooth (arguable), efficient (arguable) and ethical (kind of bullshit) manner that the system of capitalism employs to deliver goods and services across the globe does give some people, some benefits. But I generalise massively. I should however remind the reader, that without a generous dollop of socialism, (the depraved welfare state) I would not be typing this article, not be able to use a computer, and probably having to sip droplets of my beloved juice off cans left discarded at the side of the road.
In reiteration: I should stop overanalysing apple juice as soon as possible.

I have been staying at one particular hotel for the past 30 years in San Diego old town. I decided to try something new and stayed here. All I can say was the customer service went over and beyond expectations. The room was clean, very clean. The only downside was that I could not stay longer, but I definitely will be with my family again.

Iuchi Bitomu was an air shugenja of the Unicorn Clan and member of the Baraunghar.
Station Edit
Bitomu was the commander of an outpost in the Utaku Plains. A childhood friend, Shinjo Shria was under his command. [1]
Baraunghar Prepares Edit
In 1168 the General of the Baraunghar, Iuchi Lixue, asked for all the reserves to return to Shiro Moto. The Baraunghar would move out in the first steps of the Khan's Defiance, executing several raids along lands, to draw focus away from the movements of the Khan's army. [1]

Muensterland Vacation Packages
Muensterland is situated approximately 240 miles (386 kilometers) west of Berlin, the country's capital, and approximately 90 miles (145 kilometers) north of Cologne.
Traveling through this popular part of Germany can be an adventure, so set aside some time to jump in the car and uncover a few of the other cool villages, towns and cities dotted around Muensterland. Schoeppingen and Rinkerode are just two of the many other places worth checking out while you're in Ruhr.
Approximately 55 miles (89 kilometers) to the southwest of Muensterland is Essen, an important regional center home to Zollverein Coal Mine World Heritage Site, Old Synagogue and Villa Hugel. Colosseum Theater, Folkwang Museum and Essen Cathedral a few of the other interesting attractions definitely worth visiting for those who would like to spend a while longer there.
This region is graced with a truly fascinating spiritual history; so take the time to visit the area's most sacred churches. An effective way to really understand a region is by knowing about its earlier days. Don't miss the old towns while you are in the area.
The Ruhr area has a number of excellent places for canoeing, so check you fit that into your itinerary. Wake boarding is another popular activity here. Take a big breath and de-stress as you enjoy the area's gentler activities such as picnicking and cycling.
When your time is up in Muensterland, spend the last of your euros on last minute keepsakes for the folks at home and say Tschüss (farewell).

The game time was different and there were more fans in the stands thanks to thousands of screaming children in attendance for camp day. But when the final horn sounded Tuesday afternoon at Verizon Center, the scene was all too familiar for the Washington Mystics.
After falling behind by double digits early only to make a game of things late, the Mystics couldn't deliver when it counted most in their final home game before a three-week Olympic break, losing to the Connecticut Sun, 77-70.
It was Washington's third straight defeat and its eighth loss in the past nine games. The unavoidable question after this latest setback, though, was if the Mystics (3-13) will ever right a ship that has seen anything but smooth sailing.
"It gets frustrating because these teams are easily beatable," said guard Matee Ajavon. "It's within us to just overcome any obstacle that's making us not win these games. . . . We just have to do it."
Led by a 15-point, nine-rebound showing from forward Crystal Langhorne, the Mystics had five players in double figures. But the difference in Tuesday's loss, Coach Trudi Lacey noted, came down to Washington's inability to get defensive stops down the stretch.
The Mystics trailed by just three with less than four minutes remaining after forward Monique Currie capped an 8-0 run with a runner in the lane. But Connecticut proceeded to score on six of its final seven possessions, including some clutch free throws from West Springfield grad Kara Lawson (game-high 17 points).
Behind their bench, the Sun also had a 15-2 run that spanned the end of the third quarter and the start of the fourth quarter after Washington had taken its first lead of the game on an Ajavon three-pointer. Connecticut also got 16 points and eight rebounds from forward Tina Charles.
Connecticut (13-4) is currently atop the Eastern Conference standings and improved to 3-0 against Washington this season. But coming off an embarrassing 16-point defeat on Sunday to Tulsa, the WNBA's worst team this season, the Mystics tried to turn Tuesday into a positive.
"We just have to compete like that every night," Lacey said. "Obviously it's taken a little longer than we hoped, but we've seen signs of it all season long."
Not all was well in the Mystics' locker room, though.
After Ajavon scored 10 points in the first quarter when the Sun threatened to blow the game wide open by making 11 of its first 12 shots, she was relegated to the bench for the majority of the fourth quarter. Lacey explained that it was part of a larger defensive adjustment that involved using bigger guards on the perimeter.
In a loss to San Antonio last Friday, Ajavon also sat for most of the second half. Lacey told reporters it was due to an injury, a claim Ajavon refuted in the locker room after the game.
Even so, center Michelle Snow shared Lacey's optimism. After she scored 10 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, Snow described the team's chemistry as "unbelievable" and predicted the Mystics would look back on this loss as a turning point.
They face the Sun again Wednesday in Connecticut.
"This is what you build on," Snow said. "Tomorrow will be a test to see if we come back and play the exact same way, if we're learning our lesson as far as coming out and being ready to play."
●FEVER 84, LIBERTY 82: Tamika Catchings scored 23 points, including the winning free throws with 8.4 seconds left, to lift host Indiana.
Katie Douglas scored 20 points and Shavonte Zellous added 12 as the Fever (10-6) squandered a 12-point lead and trailed by four in the final minutes before rallying.
Cappie Pondexter scored a season-high 33 points and Essence Carson added 14 for New York (6-11), which has lost two straight and six of nine.
●LYNX 107, SHOCK 86: Candice Wiggins scored 25 points, Maya Moore had 24 and visiting Minnesota used an 18-2 run to pull away in the fourth quarter.
Seimone Augustus added 17 points, Lindsay Whalen had 14 and Taj McWilliams-Franklin 12 for the Lynx (13-4). Wiggins and Moore both shot 8 for 12 from the field, with Wiggins going 6 for 9 on three-pointers.
Ivory Latta led Tulsa (3-13) with 25 points on 10-for-14 shooting, including 5 for 8 from three-point range.
●SPARKS 90, MERCURY 71: In Phoenix, Candace Parker had 22 points and 14 rebounds to lead Los Angeles to its fourth straight win.
Kristi Tolliver added 19 points and six assists and Nneka Ogwumike had 11 points and 14 rebounds for the Sparks (14-6). Parker also had four assists and three blocks.
DeWanna Bonner and rookie Sammy Prahalis both had 14 points and seven rebounds to lead the Mercury (4-14).

The erosion of struggling mineral exploration companies from the Australian Securities Exchange picked up pace in the December quarter, with 25 companies delisting, entering administration or switching their focus to another industry.
On the back of low commodity prices, investors have predominantly turned away from junior resources stocks, with the exception of a number of gold and lithium plays, prompting cash-strapped companies to act.
About 120 of the 753 listed exploration companies, or 16 per cent, did not actively explore during the December quarter, according to accounting and advisory firm BDO's latest quarterly cash analysis on the sector.
BDO said "an increasing number of exploration companies are going into cash preservation mode" or leaving the struggling sector entirely.
In the three months to December 31, 25 companies capitulated. Backdoor listings consumed 14 of the companies, eight of which became technology-focused.
A further eight companies were delisted, one was suspended and three entered voluntary administration.
"It is key for juniors that are running out of cash reserves to identify a number of strategies to avoid having to appoint administrators which has become more frequent recently," BDO natural resources partner Adam Myers said.
Exploration investment
BDO found almost half of the remaining exploration companies had enough cash left to fund only one or two more quarters of operating expenditure.
But there was one slight silver lining. BDO said gold companies had performed better than most due to "the market's preference for gold exploration companies in times of economic uncertainty, market volatility and falling commodity prices".
One of the larger gold companies, Doray Minerals, is focusing a significant chunk of its cash on exploration work.
Speaking at the miner's half year results on Tuesday, managing director Allan Kelly said Doray planned to invest about $11 million of its $19 million of net profit after tax from the 2015 financial year on exploration, including $4 million on "greenfields" exploration, away from existing mines.
"We see that as a real point of difference for the company," Mr Kelly said.
"We are backing ourselves to be able to make a new discovery."
Industry experts have warned miners, particularly the larger ones, need to increase greenfield exploration expenditure to ensure the industry has a pipeline of growth.
However, one of the obvious downsides with exploration, and one of the key reasons increasingly risk-averse investors backed away from the sector as commodity prices declined, is that it is a high-risk business.
Last month, Barrick Gold senior vice-president of exploration Rob Krcmarov told an investor day new gold discoveries were harder to come by.
"Despite record spending since 2002, the discovery rate for gold deposits, it has plummeted dramatically," Mr Krcmarov said.
"The alarming lack of discoveries is only going to exacerbate future supply constraints and something referred to as 'peak gold'."
Stockbroker Petra Capital last month conducted an analysis of 121 pure-play global gold producers and explorers, which accounted for about 60 per cent of known global gold reserves, and found collective gold reserves declined 10 per cent to 1 billion ounces between 2012 and 2014.
"What makes those numbers even more pronounced is that juniors' exploration success has masked a fall of over 200 million ounces from the seniors, over a quarter of their peak reserve base," Petra said.
The 12 global 'senior' producers, including Barrick Gold, Newmont Mining and Australia's Newcrest Mining, reported a 176 million ounce or 23 per cent decline in reserves from 2012 to 2014. If ounces added through acquisitions were excluded, the decline totalled 185 million ounces.

Danny MacAskill's 'The Ridge' with had some of the gnaliest exposure lines of any video we've seen. Top that off with a trail bike frontflip over a fence and you can't help but want to know what went into the making of 'The Ridge.' These videos give you a look inside the risks Danny MacAskill and the film crew took to get the shots they wanted.
In 'Inaccessible Pinnacle' Danny unclips from the ropes and climbs a knife's edge ridge with his bike on his back.
'The Frontflip' shows Danny's test runs at the fence over which he front flipped his Santa Cruz Bronson.
The exposure, rain, and narrow paths that Danny and the film team were exposed to are shown in 'The Ledge.'
And the fourth clip, "The Gap" shows the difficulties of the boulder gap – a stunt, which required full concentration and maximum strength to do on a full suspension bike:
Danny's skill and inspiration was matched only by the incredible filming talent of Cut Media. The outcome was one of a kind and for Danny probably one of the coolest things he's ever done.

Location: Sugarcane Research2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
The goal of this project is reduce the impact of diseases on the production of sugarcane and energycane by assisting breeders in identifying disease resistant germplasm. Objective 1: Identify germplasm of hybrid sugarcane and wild relatives of sugarcane for resistance to economically limiting diseases that breeders can use for productive sugar and energy cane parental clones. Sub-objective 1.A. Classify available clones from different taxa for disease resistance. Cultivars and near-release cultivars of sugarcane and energycane and wild clones of Saccharum spp. and genetically related genera that may be used as parents will be characterized for resistance to important diseases. Sub-objective 1.B. Identify DNA markers that are linked to genes for disease resistance. Objective 2: Determine molecular and biological characteristics of economically important sugarcane pathogens that can be applied to effective diagnostic protocols. Objective 3: Develop useful methods to monitor potential emergence of exotic pathogens and identify genetic diversity among pathogen populations that affect sugar and/or energy cane. Sub-objective 3.A. Characterize races, strains, or other biotypes of endemic pathogens and determine their distribution. Sub-objective 3.B. Monitor the Louisiana sugarcane industry for the emergence of new pathogens.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
To identify and develop germplasm with resistance to the major diseases affecting sugarcane in the United States, highly domesticated and wild clones of sugarcane and near relatives will be evaluated for disease resistance following either natural infections or artificial inoculation. To identify molecular markers that are linked to genes for disease resistance, Random Amplification of Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), and Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers in combination with the bulk segregant analysis (BSA) will be used to screen potential DNA markers for resistance to smut and other important diseases. Variations among the DNA sequences of polymorphic DNA fragments will be analyzed and used to design new pairs of specific primers to develop Sequenced Characterized Amplified Region (SCAR) markers. Genotypic and phenotypic expressions of variability within populations of pathogens will be used to identify the genetic variability among pathogen populations and determine the distribution of races, strains, or biotypes. The domestic sugarcane industry will be monitored for the introduction of exotic pathogens.
3. Progress Report:
Varieties (57) for possible release into commercial production in the next five years were screened through artificial inoculation in the field for susceptibility to smut and leaf scald. Candidate varieties (approx. 750) that could be released in 8 years were screened in the field by artificial inoculation for susceptibility to ratoon stunting disease (RSD). In other Agricultural Research Service breeding trials and nurseries, candidate varieties were observed for natural infection by pathogens that cause mosaic, rust, smut and leaf scald diseases. Pathology recommendations were made at variety advancement and variety release meetings. The genetic population to be used to develop a molecular marker linked to smut resistance was established in the field from seedlings of four crosses, namely, CP 01-2390 (smut susceptible female parent) X Ho 05-961 (resistant male parent) and the reciprocal cross of Ho 05-961 (resistant female parent) X CP 01-2390 (smut susceptible male parent), and L 97-128 (smut susceptible female parent) X Ho 05-961 (resistant male parent) and the reciprocal cross of Ho 05-961 (resistant female parent) X L 97-128 (smut susceptible male parent). Natural infection of the seedlings was recorded. Two stalks cut from each seedling were cut and dip-inoculated in a suspension of smut spores and planted in the field. Smut infections will be recorded. In the recent surveys of sugarcane plants expressing mosaic symptoms, strain I of sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV) remained the predominant strain of virus causing mosaic. Strains H and M of SrMV were also identified among the diseased sugarcane plants. The Louisiana sugarcane industry continues to be monitored for the potential introduction of orange rust (Puccinea kuehnii). Rust spores were collected from pustules on multiple sugarcane varieties located on commercial farms throughout Louisiana. All were identified as spores that cause brown rust (Puccinea melanocephala), a rust that has been present in Louisiana since 1981. Spore traps were set up at three locations to detect airborne orange rust spores. Orange rust spores were identified in each of the three traps in late September or early October. Sporulating pustules (pustules where spores are produced) with symptoms matching those described for orange rust were found in May 2012. Spores were examined by light microscopy to determine morphological characteristics. Lesions and surrounding tissues were analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).
4. Accomplishments
1. First observation of sugarcane orange rust in Louisiana. Following the discovery of orange rust in Florida in 2007, surveys were made of the Louisiana sugarcane industry to determine if the pathogen was present in the state using spore traps and sentinel plots. Orange rust spores were found in spore traps in the fall of 2010; however, no disease was observed on sugarcane in FY 2011. Orange rust was observed for the first time in Louisiana on sugarcane variety Ho 05-961 in May 2012. Fungal spores from the infected sugarcane leaves were identified as Puccinea kuhnii based on the morphology of the spores and molecular analysis with quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Because of the potential for economic losses from orange rust infections, a program of screening test varieties and parents for orange rust will be established.

So @Rachim suggested I make this into a blog, and it's basically my thoughts on Sam liking Freddie:
This is what I think happened:
Sam has always loved Freddie, but knew he liked her best friend. So she was always rude to him, out of anger and hope that he'd get the message and like her back. When he suggested kissing in iKiss, she gladly accepted because she thought this was her one and only chance. She never stopped being rude to him because she never thought anything would happen between Carly and Freddie and didn't think to change her behavior. But when Carly and Freddie slow danced, she was very upset. But she still didn't do anything about it because she didn't think they'd actually date. Then, when they did, she had to do something. Not only did she love Freddie, she knew Carly would break his heart and that they weren't right for each other. She told Freddie to break up with her, and they did. She was relieved. She didn't change her act because she knew/thought that Freddie still loved Carly and didn't want to cause any trouble. But, after iSaFW, she saw her chance. She knew by then that Freddie didn't love Carly, so she decided to do something. She couldn't bring out her feelings directly because that's just not Sam's nature. She continues being rude and beating him up, but when that doesn't catch his attention, she realizes that she needs to be nice to him for him to notice her. Little did she know/expect, everyone thought she was in love with Brad instead and it broke her heart that no one could see how much she loved Freddie. Then, when Freddie came out to talk to her, she knew this was her last chance. She knew she had to do something. She knew that he was totally clueless to her love for him, and always would be if she didn't do something. So she kissed him to tell him, "I love you!" And now, all she needs, is Freddie's answer: Does he love her?
This is what I think were Sam's emotions these past four years.
Additional: I also think that Sam had a crush on Freddie for the first two years, but after iSpeed Date, she knew she loved him. She also believed he would never date her because he liked Carly. But after iSaFW, she realized that she had a chance with him.

If you're a serious Randy Blue fan then you know all too well that Chris Rockway is forever blowing our minds in each new shoot. It's almost like he's in competition with himself and tries harder with each new video release. Mike West was the very fortunate hunk to take a good ass pounding from Chris, and of course loved every damn second of it. While Chris fucking Mike is certainly the main event in this sexy man pairing, one of the highlights is watching Chris suck cock. He doesn't just put his mouth on Mike's hard man meat, he literally worships it until Mike is squirming with outright ecstasy. The men swap cocksucking duties until they both can't stand it any further. Chris assumes the position behind Mike and buries himself to the hilt all the way home. Doggie fashion is always a great experience, but insatiable bottom Mike likes control himself sometimes. He hops on top of Chris' pole and drives both of them to utter bliss!

Chapter One
April 18, 1912
John walked slowly through the crowd, with Mary's hand and Allegro's leash in one hand, and Nadia's hand in the other. Around him, people jostled and shouted, trying to catch a glimpse of the Titanic survivors. Some members of the crowd were concerned friends and relatives, or officials from the White Star Line. Others were curiosity seekers, obscenely fascinated by one of the greatest maritime disasters in history.
Dozens of reporters pushed through the crowd, shouting questions and taking pictures. One spotted John and his small entourage, and pushed past two other reporters, the magnesium flash of his camera startling his subjects. Mary screamed, and Allegro yipped, trying to sink his puppy teeth into the reporter's shoe.
"Sir!" the reporter shouted. "How did you survive? I'm given to understand that few steerage men lived. Are these your children? Did you lose anyone on the ship?"
Resolutely, John picked up the two small girls and balanced them on his hips. Ignoring the reporter, he pushed into the crowd, merging with the thousands of other people. Mary and Nadia clung to him, their eyes wide and frightened.
Stopping for a moment, John picked up the puppy and set him in Mary's arms, lest he be trampled by the milling crowd. Mary hugged the animal as her father headed for a break in the crowd, seeking a way out.
They had already been processed by the immigration officials, and had been escorted to an area where several charitable organizations were waiting to assist those survivors who had no friends or relatives in the new country, and had no other resources to rely on. John had been referred to these organizations, but had soon slipped away. There were many people in need of assistance, many far worse off than he, and had no desire to take the limited resources of the charities when he could provide for himself and his family.
The money that Miriam had placed in Mary's dress pocket during the sinking of the Titanic was stored safely inside the ripped lining of his coat, and, although he wasn't certain of the value of it, he knew that there was enough to provide for them for a while. The other items—a locket containing a water-damaged photograph of a woman he assumed was Miriam's mother, a two-tailed silver dollar, and a note written on a twenty dollar bill—were also tucked inside the lining of the coat, safe from pickpockets.
Slowly, John made his way out of the crowd. Once he was past it, he set the girls down, his arms tired from carrying them and the dog. His side ached dully, the cracked ribs he had suffered during the sinking not yet healed. Taking the hands of the two toddlers, he slowly made his way farther into the city, wondering what he was going to do now.
He had no idea where to find shelter, or food, at this late hour, and a chilly rain was falling over the city. He held Mary's hand tightly as the child coughed, fearing that the pneumonia she had just recovered from would return. Pneumonia could be fatal, as he well knew. Mary's mother, Jana, had died from it when Mary was an infant.
He kept an eye out for any establishment that might still be open. Even if he couldn't buy any food at this late hour, he still needed to find shelter for himself and the two young children. It was much too cold and wet to spend the night in the street, especially after the ordeal they had just been through.
John was familiar with cities, having grown up in a working class neighborhood in London, but he had never before been to the United States, and New York was completely unfamiliar. Miriam had described it, but most of her experience had been with the wealthier sections of the city, and she had never wandered the streets late at night, searching for shelter.
"Daddy?" Mary's voice interrupted his thoughts. "I cold."
John picked her up, setting her on his hip again. "I know you are, Mary. Is that a little better?"
Nadia stopped, looking up at him pleadingly. Sighing, John bent down and picked her up, too. Nadia hadn't said a word since John had taken her with him when he had found her on the Carpathia, except for occasionally crying out in her sleep. John knew that she didn't speak English, but Nadia had not spoken while awake in any language. He thought that her first language might be Arabic, and he knew that her mother had occasionally spoken to her using a few French words, but he spoke only English, and wouldn't have understood her even if she had attempted to speak.
All three of them were shivering, though Allegro seemed to be content enough. His eyes searching the darkened street before him, he saw a bench set back under an overhang. A hunched figure already occupied it, but John headed for it anyway. It was shelter, no matter how crude.
Sitting down on the bench, John set the two girls in his lap, lifting the puppy onto the bench beside him. The hunched figure on the bench, a woman wearing a coat several sizes too large for her, looked up at them, startled, then pulled her knees up to her chin, apparently having dismissed him as a threat.
John unbuttoned his coat and wrapped it as best he could around himself and the two children, trying to warm them. Allegro curled against his leg, his chin on John's knee.
Nadia's eyes drooped sleepily, and in minutes she was asleep, in spite of the cold and the dampness. Mary coughed fretfully, her eyes popping open every few minutes as she fought sleep. John tried to soothe her, rubbing her back and placing her head against his shoulder.
The woman on the other end of the bench shuffled, eyeing them cautiously. She reached her hands into the pockets of her wet coat, as though searching for something, then sat up, putting her feet on the sidewalk. She hunched over again, looking up and down the street as though trying to make a decision.
John watched her dispassionately. She had long, snarled hair, the color indeterminate in the darkness, and was wearing a dress that was probably once very nice, but was now somewhat shredded. Her oversized coat looked expensive, and she dug her hands deeper into the pockets as she got to her feet, her arms half-hidden in them.
Mary peeked up at her as she stood. "Hi," she told the woman, turning her head to look at her.
"Hello," the woman responded, in a cultured voice that sounded vaguely familiar, though John didn't know why. He didn't know many people in America, aside from the few he had met on the Titanic and the Carpathia, and he certainly didn't know anyone who spoke like that. The only person he knew who had such a cultured voice was Miriam, and Miriam was dead.
"Shh," he told Mary. "Don't bother the lady."
"Mommy's fend," Mary protested, pointing to her.
"No, Mary. Your Mommy didn't know her."
"What was your Mommy's name, sweetie?" the woman asked, looking at Mary.
Mary screwed up her face, trying to remember. "Mirim," she answered triumphantly after a moment.
"Uh-huh." Mary looked up at her. "Mommy died."
"I'm sorry to hear that, Mary. Is this your Daddy?"
"Uh-huh. And Nada, and Egro."
"Nadia and Allegro," John translated, at the woman's confused look. "I'm John."
"I'm Rose."
Suddenly, John knew why her voice sounded familiar. Rose had been down in steerage the night before the sinking, drinking beer and making a fool of herself. "Rose DeWitt Bukater?"
"Rose Dawson." She spoke firmly. "And, unless I miss my guess, you're John Calvert, the husband of Miriam Anders Calvert." Her voice softened. "I'm sorry to hear she didn't make it."
"Thank you. What are you doing out here in the street? What happened to your fiancé?"
Rose's expression became shuttered. "Suffice it to say I am not with him, nor will I be again. As to what I am doing out here, I am looking for a hotel. There are two inexpensive ones on this street."
"Are they still accepting guests at this hour?"
"If they aren't full, they will be. If they are, I suppose I will have to look farther. You should think about doing to the same. Those children shouldn't be out in the cold like this, especially after Titanic. If you can't afford a hotel, there's a Red Cross shelter just three blocks that way." She pointed down a dark street. "They've taken some of the Titanic survivors there. They would probably give you shelter and some food."
"I can afford a hotel. Where are these hotels you mentioned?"
Rose pointed to one building with lights in some of its windows on the next block of the street, then gestured to another in the opposite direction. "That's where I'm going to try first."
"If you don't mind, I'm going to tag along." She gave him a suspicious look. "I need to find a room for the night. You're right; the girls don't need to be out in the rain. I'm not trying to follow you, but that hotel looks to be the nearest one, and I need to get them inside before they get sick."
As if to underscore his words, Mary coughed, her little face turning red from the exertion.
"Is she ill?" Rose asked, looking more closely at the child.
"She just recovered from pneumonia, and I don't want her getting it again. She nearly drowned when the ship went down."
"Oh, how terrible!" Rose's face showed her compassion. "Hurry, then. Let me carry one of them."
John stood, allowing Rose to take Mary. Holding Nadia, he took Allegro's leash and started down the street beside her.
Mary held onto Rose's coat, her eyes wide as she looked up at her. "You pretty," she told Rose, touching her tangled hair.
"Thank you, Mary. You're very pretty, too."
Mary grinned at her, then commenced coughing again. Rose walked faster, John keeping stride with her, as they headed toward the hotel.
