The only idea I could come up with for a guest comic was to cover the starting of a rival group in this setting. A second group that ends up being the Skypedia Villains. Sadly, I'm laz- err, bad at writ- bad at creating comics.

Phil getting all excited about the thought of being a hero and getting a feast in everyone's honor when it's really just Luffy they're celebrating makes me wonder if we're seeing the birth of the first cracks that'll eventually lead to the comic's version of the Water 7 confrontation, a long looooong way down the road.

Royal Wedding: The Five Hottest Royal Brides In History
Hair Balls was positively ecstatic to learn that Prince William is getting hitched to longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton. Although the wedding isn't planned until 2011, we're already worrying over what to wear, and what to get the happy couple (we're pretty sure they'll register at Target). But in the meantime, we thought we'd look back upon some other notable royal brides. And by "notable," we mean "hot."
5) In 2004, Mary Donaldson became the Crown Princess of Denmark. She's not only exceptionally attractive, but she's also a member of the Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania! But that's not all -- her patronages include the Children's Aid Foundation, the Danish Association for Mental Health, and the vaguely pornographic-sounding Danish Stroke Association.
4) Proving that you can still be attractive even if your nose is kind of big, Tatiana Blatnik married Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Denmark last August.
3.) One of the hottest royal brides ever, Grace Kelly was also one of the most talented. Before she married Prince Albert II of Monaco, she kicked ass in Rear Window, which is one of our favorite Hitchcock movies, and not just because it contains the word "rear."

2) Catherine of Valois, who looked stunningly like Emma Thompson, married Henry V in 1420. We dig Kenneth Branagh's 1989 version of this tragedy, which contains what many think is the best version ever of the St. Crispan's Day speech. Suck it, Olivier fans.
1) We're not sure if the marriage between Ann Darrow and King Kong, the greatest king of all, was official, or even consummated. The gorgeous actress was first offered up to the king as a sacrifice by the residents of Skull Island, but the big ape fell in love with her instead, making it one of the best meet-cute stories ever. Unfortunately, the king died before the couple could produce a Prince Kong. His body was shipped back to Skull Island for a funeral, where Kong's second cousin, Donkey, delivered the eulegy.

Students in the History Department at Elizabethtown College have opportunities to conduct independent research under the guidance of a faculty mentor.
For students planning on pursuing a graduate degree, original research is a vital part of developing the skills necessary to be successful in graduate school. All students, regardless of major, will find that research skills, including recovering, organizing, and interpreting data, are vital to success in a variety of fields and careers.
Recently, history students participated in research on World War II at the U.S. Army Heritage Center in Carlisle, PA. Faculty have also taken or supported student research trips to Chicago, New York, and Connecticut.
Senior Thesis for Honors
Sarah Thomas '15
Thesis: "The Futurists: Futurism, Fascism, and Feminism"
"Presenting my research at conferences forced me to look at my research and decide which aspects were most important to convincingly make my argument."
My senior thesis provided a strong finish to my academic career at Elizabethtown College. It was the largest project I have yet had to tackle, and it put my abilities to the test. I was able to synthesize all of the skills that I have learned as a history major.
My thesis, "The Futurists: Futurism, Fascism, and Feminism," focused on the female members of Futurism, an Italian avant-garde art movement that lasted from 1909 to 1944. I explored how these women adapted and adopted the ideas of a misogynistic movement to fit their own needs and ideologies.
The historiographical skills I learned from my capstone course enabled me to select the best sources on my subject, while my upper-level history courses taught me the analytical skills that I would need to evaluate the roles of women in the Futurist movement.
When the project was finished, I was able to present it at two professional conferences: the Phi Alpha Theta Regional Conference at Ursinus College and Scholarship and Creative Arts Days at Elizabethtown College. Presenting my research at conferences forced me to look at my research and decide which aspects were most important to convincingly make my argument.
At the end of the semester, I formally defended my thesis before the members of the History Department. Though the defense was a novel experience, I am glad to have been presented with the opportunity; it made me think more critically about my research and how I would defend it against challenging questions.
Senior Thesis for Honors
Emily Vasas '15
Thesis: "Subverting the Strangulation of Creativity: The Influence of Hungarian Fiction Writers under Communism"
"I had refined research and writing skills in past courses and put those skills to use for my senior thesis."
The senior thesis in history offers students the opportunity to build their experiences with independent research and to earn honors in the discipline.
My thesis, entitled "Subverting the Strangulation of Creativity: The Influence of Hungarian Fiction Writers under Communism," explored the complicated relationship of Hungarian intellectuals with Hungary's communist government during the 1950s and 1960s.
The senior thesis program provided a meaningful conclusion to my study of history at Elizabethtown College. In my sophomore and junior years, I had conducted smaller independent research projects on Hungarian intellectuals, but the senior thesis provided the occasion for a more in-depth investigation.
Since was my final project for history here at E-town, I had refined research and writing skills in past courses and put those skills to use for my senior thesis. I was much more critical in choosing my research materials and in examining different approaches, interpretations, and biases than I would have been at the start of my college career. These skills were especially useful since my thesis focused on works of fiction and the lives of the authors who wrote them.
Presenting my thesis for Scholarship and Creative Arts Day and subsequently defending it before the history faculty helped me refine my public speaking skills and prepared me for presentations in graduate school. The senior thesis program is a great opportunity to conduct original research and to present findings in preparation for future academic and career paths.
Internships provide real-world experience in professional settings that prepare students for their post-collegiate careers. Internships can last a semester or up to a full year.
History majors can intern at an array of sites, including any one of the local historical societies, libraries, and museums. Internships can also be found in nearby Harrisburg, Philadelphia, or even Washington, D.C. There is no shortage of places for students to find an internship doing something that interests them.
Previous internships include:
- The White House
- U.S Supreme Court
- United States Congress
- Pennsylvania Museum Commission
- U.S. Congressional Archives
- Pennsylvania State Museum in Harrisburg
- Winter's Heritage House Museum in Elizabethtown
- Pennsylvania Governor's Office
- Landis Valley Farm Museum in Lancaster
- James Buchanan Foundation for the Preservation of Wheatland
- Heritage Center in Lancaster
- Hummelstown (PA) Historical Society
- Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library in Austin, Texas

4 of us stayed in the condo from 4/5-4/12/14. The location is fantastic, beach is beautiflul. The view from the condo balcony to the beach is limited. The condo was "OK" but it was not very clean and it had a mold smell. When I returned home from my vaca all my luggage and clothes had to be washed and aired out to get the smell out. The master bed was not very comfortable and the other room with a bed in it does not have a closet and is small. The sliding door to the balcony did not lock. Hairdryer in bathroom did not work. The kitchen did not have a can opener. For the cost of rent this condo should have been perfect.

Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show
Also available on: Amiga - Amstrad CPC - Commodore 64
Description of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show
Rodeo Games is an original collection of mini arcade games based on Western mythos. The mini-games are fun, but unrelated to each other, and the only purpose in the game is to break your own high scores from previous session. Despite this limitation, however, the mini-games offer enough gameplay variety and challenges for any arcade gamer looking for something different. There are 6 mini-games in all: Trick Shooting, as the name suggests, is a 3D shoot-the-target games with a nice nod to realism (e.g. the crossfire "jumps" after each shot to simulate the firing impact); Knife Throwing is a typical shoot-the-spinning-target game; Calf Roping, Steed Wrestling, and Bronco Riding are fun cowboy sports popular in Midwestern USA-- here's your chance to rope a runaway calf, wrestle a steed, and ride tough horses without falling off; Finally, Stagecoach Rescue depicts a popular scene from most Western flicks: catch up with a hijacked stagecoach on horseback, and fight Indian warriors to rescue the people inside.
Overall, the games are fun, but uneven, and plague with a control scheme that isn't very intuitive: Trick Shooting and Calf Roping are cakewalk compared to Knife Throwing (where it's game over after one miss), and maintaining your posture on horseback in Bronco Riding is nearly impossible for all but the most dexterous of gamers. Rodeo Games is fun, but for anyone who's not an expert arcade gamer it may prove to be an exercise in frustration.

Interesting Facts About Olive Oil
There are several different types of Olive Oil available:
Extra-virgin: This is the premium grade and is produced from the first pressing of the olives. When using the best-sourced olives combined with organic production methods this is potentially the highest quality available. In actual fact the term "first pressing" although often used in this context is an inaccurate marketing term as most extra virgin olive oil is now made in centrifuges in a continuous process. Oil made in a press is usually inferior to that from a centrifuge due to inherent problems with the pressing process.
Virgin: Has very low acidity (below 2%) and containing no added refined oil.
Pure olive oil: This is normally a blend of refined olive oil and virgin olive oil. Charcoal or other chemical filters are used to produce refined oil.
Extra light: This description can be a misleading term used by manufacturers. It usually refers to a highly processed product, often mixed with other oils, or sometimes is just a pure olive oil grade.
Note: The "light" refers to taste rather than low calorie.
The Suma Brand Team tried many different types of olive oil in our drive to find the best and in our opinion we feel that our Suma brand Organic Extra Virgin Italian Olive Oil (GT017) was the outright winner of the beauty contest.
Suma olive oil is available in wholesale quantities and in 3 litre, 750ml and 500ml sizes.
Our oil is pressed from Italian olives grown in Sicily, Calabria and Puglia and is part of our authentic Italian range. It has a complex yet fruity flavour and is perfect for cooking and drizzling and is excellent combined with Suma Oak Aged Balsamic Vinegar (KJ654) and dunked with crusty bread.
Other Uses for Olive Oil:
Whilst researching this article I have discovered that some people tend to get very imaginative in their quest to find worthwhile uses for the old bottle of cheap olive oil in their cupboard when trying to justify buying some good stuff – the following are all genuine and some may surprise you:
- Shave lubricant
- Furniture polish
- Freeing a stuck zip
- Hair product – controlling frizz
- Earache cure
- Headlice cure
- Sore throat treatment
- Makeup remover
- Squeaky door cure
- Cleaning garden tools
- Personal lubricant – yes really !
- Nappy rash cure
- Rust preventative
- Leather softener
- Massage oil
At Suma we are always looking to push out the boundaries with our customers so why not tell us your favourite alternative use for olive oil by making a comment to this article ?

Charges Filed in North Platte Group Home Stabbing
Two residents of a North Platte group home for at-risk boys have been charged with stabbing two of the home's employees.
Each of the boys was charged with attempted first-degree murder, use of a deadly weapon, escape and theft. Bail has been set at $2 million each.
One of the boys, 18-year-old Keenan Lambert, of Miller, was a state ward who had been placed at the Nebraska Youth Center by Buffalo County authorities. The other boy, a 16-year-old from Hastings, was placed there by Adams County authorities.
Early Tuesday morning, officers from the North Platte Police Department responded to the Nebraska Youth Center following reports of a double stabbing of youth center staff.
Officers arrived at the facility to find Diana Johns and Robin Schneider with stab wounds. Both women were transported to the Great Plains Regional Medical Center for medical treatment with injuries deemed to be non-life-threatening at the time.
Authorities say the suspects fled the scene in Schneider's stolen Dodge Avenger and were later apprehended heading down Interstate 80.

I haven't posted in a zillion years but I'm totally confused by this one. My son was diagnosed with ADHD over a year ago following years of speech and occupational therapy (which we are continuing). At that time he was also diagnosed with a high IQ (98th percentile). He's in a regular public school classroom, 3rd grade. Just this school year, he is suddenly saying he doesn't know how to do things and then not participating. He's been in karate over a year but suddenly says he doesn't know how to do it, it doesn't feel right, and sits out rather than try to participate. I just got a call from his gym teacher saying he did the same in gym today, despite the fact she went over the rules verbally and visually, in a group and one on one with him.
What is this?
We did start ritalin about 6 weeks ago and I thought it had made a wonderful difference, he's so much calmer and focused but still very much himself (ie hyper to the casual observer--but it's a more normal boy hyper now).
If it's mostly when he's doing things in a class setting (ie in public), it sounds like a bit of performance anxiety. I think kids (even neurotypical kids) often get this from time to time, at a certain age or when they're adjusting to a new circumstance. I wonder if the new calmness he's received from the med is making him more aware of his surroundings and the other children and teachers, and less willing to just jump in? Hopefully, a little reassurance and some time will boost his confidence and help him remember "oh yeah, I got this."
If he seems anxious in class or if it continues or gets worse, maybe discuss it with your provider, in case it could be a side effect of the new medication.
Otherwise, both of my children have done this from time to time, and with a few weeks' patience they've gotten over it. Both of my kids are self-conscious and like to do things right. It can be tough to perform in front of others, even if it's something they've done before, or if the other kids are doing it too.
One of the side effects of Ritalin is anxiety.

Thanks all. Anyway as an update I met with his teacher and special ed coordinator yesterday and they are actually pretty concerned about what they perceive as an increase in anxiety and worry. So we are going to discontinue the meds for now and see how that goes.

Lmao, your funny, not sure where you can come up with such a statement, someone with a 4.7 must of pissed your ego off at some point. There are even more 5.7 people who will state the same info "Diablo Canned tunes are crap" and the higher you go in the 4th gen like 2011 and 2012's its stated more often as people try out the Diablo Can tunes. That being said, Diablo with a Hemifever tune gets 3 thumbs up, 5 stars, and lots of happy campers.
Ya, I am a 4.7 guy and you can dismiss my information, lmao Just because I have a 4.7 and have been in racing for a better part of my 48 years does not make me an authority on tuners. But I can read and research what the majority of people out there are saying, and 4.7 or 5.7 owners have spoken and the consensus is that they find the Canned tunes by Diablo are not as good as other makes canned tunes. JMO but I would stem to say the Diablo tuners where not really created to be a can tune box, but a programmable unit that can be fine tuned for the vehicle and the modifications to that said vehicle. So they probably did not spend much time making a better can tune for the unit. Again, JMO from a 4.7 guy, no BS, its really JMO
and Yes you did do some testing with your truck and your buddies truck, still, that is just testing on your truck and your buddies truck, unfortunately there are millions of other trucks out there and these do not have the same configurations as yours, nor do they have the same computer, nor are they configured the same as yours. For your truck and your buddies it worked out for you, congratulations, but calling others out as BS is not needed and immature, you can state your information as a reference but get over yourself as to your extent of expertise over everyone else, it does not equal that of the whole population of Ram owners. Great info and very good to have, but it is still only a 2 truck minority to that of the quantity out there.

The 'Windsor' dining collection was designed and introduced by ercol's founder, Lucian Randolph Ercolani, in the middle of the last century. His father emigrated to London from Tuscany, Italy closely followed by his family in 1898, and in 1920 his soon-to-be-famous son set up the 'ercol' furniture brand. Windsor is the range that most recognizably epitomises the ercol style – elegant, light and ultimately fit for purpose. Traditional craft techniques and attention to detail are all part of the ercol ethos.
Ercolani enrolled in the Shoreditch Technical Institute where he studied design and furniture making – in the early 1900s Shoreditch was at the epicenter of furniture making in the UK. In 1920 when he opened his own design studio in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire it was then the 'chair-making capital' of England. Part of the ercol 'Originals' range, Windsor cabinets, dining tables and chairs are design classics that have retained many of their original signature features. The cabinets and sideboards mix modern machining with bespoke tradition and are renowned for their oval wooden handles.

It's all about the team. That is something Gator Head Basketball Coach Billy Donovan has stressed all season for a team that broke countless school records on the way to becoming the best team in the land. The team concept is what Meyer has also been telling his boys.
"(We) had an hour and half meeting all about that," Meyer said. "Since the beginning of time, in all of athletics, the best team wins. I think sometimes people forget that. The guy that jumps the highest doesn't always win. The best team wins, and that's a great example of that."
The talk may have carried over to the practice field today. On a day where the stands were basically empty to watch practice, the fans that were there were sluggish in the heat while recovering from a days worth of celebration for their basketball team. The team responded like, well, a team.
"We had an excellent day today," Meyer said. "Saturday was ok, the first two days were alright, and today was a great day. I was really pleased with the intensity. We did all those hitting drills like we usually do. It was real intense."
Meyer has been very pleased with the progress of the most well known Gator on campus, well maybe on the football team. His quarterback seems to be turning a page when it comes to maturing as a player. As a senior it is Chris leak's time.
"Chris leak is really doing well," Meyer said. "He's acting like a senior quarterback right now," Meyer said. "I really like his tempo in practice. I really like the way he's taking control. He's holding guys accountable. That position, it's like saying the best team wins – that position needs a general. I didn't feel positive about that last year, but I feel much better now."
There were other stand outs Tuesday.
"Drew Miller had an excellent day…Clint McMillan on the defensive line," Meyer said. "John Curtis is getting some reps. We have an issue with safety. Right now we have Tony Joiner and Reggie Nelson, Kyle Jackson has a sore back, Terrance Holmes has a shoulder injury. Nick Brooks is coming on, but John Curtis has a chance to help us." Meyer has been happy with the progress of a very young but talented offensive line.
"I feel much better," he said. "They're all young and new guys, but the try-hard is there and that is all you want right now."
Meyer added that Jermaine McCollum has a dislocated wrist and will miss the rest if spring.

Imagine me clearing my throat. Okay, here goes: If there's one thing in the world we're not remotely in danger of talking about too little, it's Lena Dunham's body. We have these big national discussions about it every six months or so (has someone figured out how to chart the changing of the seasons by how long since our last very important discussion of one chubby Brooklynite?), and nothing is ever really resolved because we're back at it again with barely enough time to lick the wounds from the last round of pointed Twitter barbs and angry Internet-comment arguments. At this point, we might even have talked about Lena Dunham's body more than Kate Upton's(!).
With that preface to make me feel better about myself for writing this, I want to talk about people talking about Lena Dunham's body. Last week, it was back in the news because, at a panel, a less-than-eloquent journalist asked the young actress and HBO-show creator why she spent so much time naked "at random times for no reason" when it obviously wasn't titillating.
Though the question drew a blog firestorm, Dunham's answer itself may be more telling. After saying that the nudity was a function of verisimilitude, she added, "If you're not into me, that's your problem and you're going to have to work that out with professionals." And that highlights a weird dissonance in the portrayal of women on the show. Let me try to explain:
We all know TV shows normalize things (Will and Grace, Sex and the City, etc., etc., etc.). Girls pretty overtly seeks to normalize bodies like Dunham's. That's a perfectly admirable goal. But it kind of has a tree-falling-in-the-forest problem; a TV show can't normalize anything if no one watches it. Its third season premiered to a series high of 1.1 million viewers — not bad, and much better than last season's finale, which drew only 632,000 — but not awesome. It's plausible that every single person who has watched Girls has written a thinkpiece on it for Salon (or, fine, National Review Online).
And that's why the now-fabled question touched such a nerve: It got at the fact that the show's success as a force for cultural change is predicated on the exact people watching it who, well, might not really want to.
Dunham wants to normalize her conventionally unattractive body by showing it to people on screen, but the people she most needs to look at it don't particularly want to, and therefore the people who have to see Dunham's body for her project to work are the very people who don't want to see it and, thus, the project is doomed. Doomed! Doomed, I say!
That's probably going overboard. These things work in subtle ways, and to the extent that Dunham's tummy can counteract the normalization (and fetishization) of a largely unattainable standard for female beauty, I think it's great.
At the same time, though, the feminist Internet fury that erupted over that question makes sense. It's because, as sexually progressive as some progressives will tell you we've become, we're still as an aggregate completely uncomfortable with seeing the naked female body as good for much at all besides titillating dudes. As far as mass media is concerned, sexual liberation is for straight guys. Slow clap.

Townships effectively provide vital services
As the executive director of the Township Officials of Illinois, I would like to respond to the Jan. 5 editorial that called into question Illinois' local units of government — especially townships — and called for their consolidation.
This is an age-old argument based on little facts and knowledge about what townships actually do.
Township officials across the state work tirelessly to provide essential services effectively and efficiently, and we often do it far under the radar. The fact of the matter is, if townships were consolidated into a larger unit of government, it would be extremely difficult to provide services to residents with the same efficiency and accuracy as townships.
Eliminating townships will not save taxpayer dollars. A recent analysis by respected public policy researcher Wendell Cox discovered that smaller, local governments have lower costs per capita than larger local governments. He also found that in Illinois, the smallest local governments generally spent half as much per capita as those with local governments of populations between 10,000 to 250,000 residents.
The argument that smaller units of government in Illinois are ineffective and costly is simply not true. We need to look at the facts: If local government units were consolidated into larger units of government, taxpayers would pay MORE, because the larger governments have higher cost structures.
This would certainly not be a step in the right direction for Illinois taxpayers.

1 Texture Analysis for the Segmentation of Sugar Cane Multispectral Images 1 Agustín Solano, 1 Gerardo Schneider, 2 Alejandra Kemerer, 1 Alejandro Hadad 1 Grupo de Investigación en Inteligencia Artificial Fac. de Ingeniería Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos Oro Verde, Entre Ríos Argentina e-conicet-gov.ar 2 Grupo de Recursos Naturales y Factores Abióticos EEA Paraná - INTA Oro Verde, Entre Ríos Argentina Abstract. In this paper is presented an analysis of the impact of texture features for segmentation of multispectral aerial images of sugar cane. Currently there are no precise techniques to estimate objectively areas of fallen cane and this causes significant losses in crop productivity and industrialization. For the realization of this work was made an image dataset. To build this dataset was implemented a software from which were obtained labeled regions in the images related to this agronomic phenomenon and then were extracted some texture features and a typical agronomic index (NDVI). The features related to segmentation task were analyzed with classical techniques such as Principal Component Analysis and Decision Trees. The results obtained show good performance to distinguish normal sugar cane versus fallen sugar cane but not between different fallen sugar cane classes. However this approach was satisfactory to estimate the normal and fallen sugar cane areas and this increase the information quality available to support agronomic decisions. Keywords: sugar cane; multiespectral images; texture features; principal components analysis; decision trees 1 Introduction The cultivation of sugar cane in Argentina is found principally localized in the northwest region of the country (99 %), where represents, in agreement with [1], one of the most important productive activities, and in scarce extension in the littoral region (1 %). The productive systems present different technological levels according to the adfa, p. 1, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 87
2 system of crop used, with systems ranging from manual to fully mechanized. However, at present, over 70% of the total volume is harvested in a mechanized way. One of the most critical aspects of the process of harvesting sugar cane are the losses that are produced and are acceptable levels about 2,5%. The presence of fallen cane is one of the factors with biggest influence. Incidence of overturning superior to 20% produces increments in the losses that go from 4 to 6,4%, according to [2]. The presence of fallen sugar cane (CC) at the moment of harvesting brings important losses of product during the collection and in the sugar mill. In the phenomenon of CC take part random and unpredictable aspects. It is normal that the sugar cane plantation in a productive square reach an average height, but presents variations of this feature in different sectors of the field. This might be because of the different conditions of the earth that presents different levels of fertility, humidity, compressing, etc. On the other hand, each plant of the sugar cane plantation is constituted in a different way and they will manifest in unique form the different external stimulus. When the plant is young and has developed under the best conditions, reaches certain height and for its own weight it begins to warp, moving close to break once its breakage tension is surpassed, product of the wind or environmental phenomena as the hail. The CC appears with great space heterogeneity. Once produced the phenomenon, the earth can remain exposed or, on the contrary, can appear a product with green color because of the appearance of new green sheets, with phototropic growth. This adds heterogeneity to an external observation. The above mentioned factors make clear the great complexity of the phenomenon under study, which makes it difficult to analyze and quantify. When strange matter called trash, that is not sugar cane, enters the sugar mill represents an important loss of efficiency in the process of manufacture of the sugar, as assure [3]. The challenge of industrial engineering is to explore the alternatives to control the harmful effects that these tailings or trash and the dust present in the cane have in the equipment, processes and operative performance of the factory. That is to say that the quality of the cane affects in direct form the industrial performance and the quality of the obtained sugar [4]. In turn, the quality of the raw material (cane) can be affected by changing aspects of the agriculture of the sugar cane, such as the introduction of new cultivars, climatic variations, the use of ripening chemists, changes in the cultural practices and in the systems of harvest or the appearance in the cultivations of illnesses or infections. As for the types of harvest, it is observed that the contents of trash and dust in cane harvested in mechanized way are appreciably lower that in the semi-mechanized, being more than 2 to 5,7 %. At the same time, the values of fiber (plant residues) rise from 14 to about 18% due to the presence of increased amount of plant parts with a less efficient harvesting [5]. This means that the industries pay to the producers a significant part of the weight of the trash of the entered raw material at the same price of the cane, because the form of sampling and analysis of this parameter is generally inadequate. To this must be incorporated the other additional costs produced by this strange product in the mill: 1. Abrasive wear in mills and a progressive loss of capacity to extract the cane juice. 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 88
3 2. Significant increase in the amount of "cachaza" and in the losses of sugar present in it. 3. Increased use of chemicals to treat the juices. 4. Increase of juice's color intensity and sugar's color intensity, thereby to avoid it the crystallization cycles must be reduced decreasing the manufacturing efficiency. 5. Wear on equipment, tubes and pumps. 6. Diminution of the calorific value of the sugarcane bagasse and consequently of the burning efficiency, with an increase of the boiler consumption and emissions. 7. Other. To reduce to the minimum possible the percentage of trash in the sugarcane, several mills installed washing tables of cane, where they remove the content of dust by means of big quantities of water (about 3 m3 of water by ton. of cane). This supposes a saving of money, but adds problems like bigger costs for the required power, the water and the additional manual labor, added to the new discussions with the producers since some studies confirm that during washing it is lost a percentage of the performance of sugar extraction. Moreover, the technique requires availability of terrain to install settling tanks of sand and mud to reuse the water. A promising strategy to achieve the reduction of this impact takes root in achieving a bigger operative efficiency in the tasks of harvesting the cane, previous stage to the entrance to the factories, and fundamentally in sectors with broken cane that increases notably the percentage of trash. This is an area of intensive manual labor where for its particular properties, considers [5], it was no possible to introduce technological solutions to reduce its negative impact in the production. At present, the quantization of the fallen cane in productive squares is an expensive and inefficient process. It requires sending evaluators to the terrain that must explore big surfaces to obtain a representative sampling that permit an estimation. The displacement around the field produces damage, requires many man hours of work and generates estimations with a high degree of uncertainty. In turn, the presence of space variations in the productivity of the cane is very wide, [6] determined variations until 50 tn/has. It is expected that this production pattern, as well as variations in the quality of the cane, be observed at diverse scales, in a similar way to other variables that influence in the production, as the properties of earth [7], making it difficult to establish a single sampling distance and has a negative impact on costs. Other strategy is carrying out flights over the cultivations with specialists who estimate the percentage of fallen cane according to their experience and what is observed from the air. This strategy is subjective and dependent on the available specialists in each area of interest. Keeping in mind these antecedents is evident that has not observed a report of some methodology with measurable certainty to decide the affected area, in order to help to plan a better way of harvesting and the associates costs. With this goal in mind and in conjunction with the National Institute of Agricultural Technology of Argentina (INTA), the group has worked on a number of algorithms for processing high-resolution aerial photographs of sugarcane productive squares[8,9]. 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 89
4 2 Materials A set of images obtained for the National Institute of Agricultural Technology of Argentina (INTA) from a Sky Arrow 650TCNS ERA airplane, whose system of capture is composed of a Global Positioning System, a Geospatial MS4100 multi-spectral camera and a system of control and storage of data. The camera permits the acquisition of photograms in three bands of the electromagnetic spectrum: green ( nm), red ( nm) and near infrared ( nm) with a resolution of 1920 x 1075 pixels. The GPS provides the position, altitude and height in synchronism with the acquisition of each photogram. A flight was carried out on 5th May 2008, moment of the cultivation cycle where the presence of fallen cane is clearly evident. The flight was carried out in the solar midday to have homogeneous illumination in the surface. The flight plan was designed for an altitude of 1200 m, resulting a size of pixel of 0.7 m by side. There were obtained 540 photograms that were assembled by means of reconnaissance points in consecutive photograms generating a mosaic. With the supervision of an agricultural engineer it was carried out the labelling of the images in the classes of interest, using the application Label Me [10] of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.), which was in a local server to facilitate the access to the data and the incorporation to a pipeline of processing. The Fig. 1 shows the process of labeling which consisted in delimiting the images with polygons that contained representative portions of the cane classes: standing cane (CP), fallen in form of patch (CCP), fallen cane in big areas (CCA), fallen cane with phototropism (CCF) and areas of exposed ground (C). From this stage resulted a dataset composed of 5678 samples or square images of 60x60 pixels. With the red and near infrared channels was obtained the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) [11] of each image. Fig. 1. Capture of screen of an example image and of the process of labeling with LabelMe. 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 90
5 3 Methodology and Results 3.1 Data analysis Usually the methodologies used in the field of image analysis in agriculture when studying the state of the sugar cane are oriented to the use of photometric indices such as NDVI. On the other hand considering that this type of cultivation has more pronounced alterations in the spatial distribution compared to other crops suggests address the problem using texture characteristics of aerial images and evaluate their capability to describe it. In this regard, it has been reported by [9] that the entropy, which is a common used texture feature in agriculture, provides insufficient information to distinguish the different states of the cane, so in this work is proposed to complete the set of texture features, incorporating other first-order statistics such as mean and standard deviation of the different channels of the image, in order to determine the relative contributions of each one in relation to the problem. Before feature extraction, the three channels of the original images were preprocessed by applying the Cartoon+Texture image decomposition, proposed by [12]. For each image point, a decision is made of whether it belongs to the cartoon part or to the textural part. This decision is made by computing a local total variation of the image around the point, and comparing it to the local total variation after a low pass filter has been applied. This algorithm gave texture images with normalized brightness. Then all images were processed with 11x11 pixel windows defining the following characteristics or indicators of interest applied to the windows: Entropy Standard Deviation Mean Thus, each window was characterized by a set of 12 texture parameters, 3 for each channel in the image (Infrared, Red and Green) and 3 for the NDVI images. As a first step, was carried out a Principal Components Analysis (PCA), which allowed to condense the information from a large set of correlated variables in fewer variables, without losing most of the variability present in the data set. By applying PCA resulted that 96.6% of the variability in the data was explained by the first 3 principal components encountered. However it was observed that in the space generated by the main components only three classes were distinguished: CP, C and CC (which contains the types CCA, CCP and CCF). In the Fig. 2 is shown the distribution of the types of cane in the Principal Components space. 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 91
6 Fig. 2. Distribution of the types of cane in the Principal Components space. Then all data was analyzed by Decision Trees, a prediction model based on inductive inference which identifies examples of one of several possible categories. For this, data was normalized and clustered in Training groups and Test groups, picking up examples randomly from the groups CP, CC and C. In the Fig. 3 is shown the percentage of success versus the level of pruning made to the original tree. Each curve corresponds to a different tree, obtained by subsampling the original data. It is also shown an average curve (red). 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 92
7 Fig. 3. Success percentage of ten different trees and mean curve. For most cases, at a pruning of 25 levels was obtained the simplest tree with similar performance of the not pruned tree. It also was studied the way that decision trees performed the identification. In general, root nodes were entropy and standard deviation of red channel. The following node was the mean of red channel and the third one was the mean of infrared channel. In some trees the fourth node identified a class but in others decided the entropy or standard deviation of infrared channel. The information of the green channel was the mean in the fifth node where also appeared the mean of the NDVI in others trees. 3.2 Proposed workflow Figure 4 shows the summarized workflow diagram used for this approach. The images obtained by the INTA EEA Paraná were labeled and classified with the supervision of an agricultural engineer in order to build a Gold Standard and Test dataset. Next were built the NDVI images to obtain the photometric features and the three channels (infrared, red and green) of the original images were preprocessed to normalize the brightness. Afterward were obtained texture features to describe the sugarcane pattern in the aerial images. In this work texture features were analyzed with PCA and Decision Trees in order to evaluate their utility. Nevertheless, in future works, the objective is to build segmentation models by means of different machine learning methods. 43 JAIIO - CAI ISSN Página 93
8 Fig. 4. Workflow Diagram 4 Conclusions It was compiled a reference dataset and a database for the study of the cultivation of sugar cane in its different states. PCA could distinguish between standing cane and fallen cane, but resulted insufficient to differentiate most of the fallen classes. The only CC that could be identified was the C class, which corresponds to the zone of lower fertility. Another conclusion is that the most quantity of information is contained in the same channels considered by the NDVI indicator but from a geometric point of view. Then the information of the green channel and the variations of the NDVI were incorporated. By the analysis carried out it was possible to measure and rank the importance of the incorporation of new descriptors in order to evaluate the state of cultivation. Furthermore it was noted that the approach of textures from the statistical viewpoint is insufficient for complete detection of fallen canes, so it must include spectral or multiscale approach to the problem. As future work is planned to incorporate new descriptors in order to build a classifier oriented to the segmentation of the images. 5 References 1.

Is it worth it to go to the southern outer banks (Cape Lookout) or all the way to Hatteras for better surf in the summer? I suppose I am asking how much better is the surf on the various outer banks than what you would get in the WB area. Does anyone know?
