Holly Cole
Canadian vocalist Holly Cole isn't one of those artists who falls into any one category. Her smoky voice is sultry, yet she's ironically humorous and candid while reshaping traditional standards and pop classics. Jazz is her bedrock, but not exclusively.
Cole was a New Year's baby born in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1963. She was surrounded by music from an early age, for her parents were both classical musicians. As a kid, she immersed herself in pop music and classic rock & roll. Everyone in her family played piano; Cole mastered the instrument and in 1981, she took up professional singing lessons. Her older brother was talented as well. When Cole was 16, her brother took off for the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. Cole joined her brother and his pals for an eight-week stint one summer. This break would ultimately lead Cole to her musical calling.
Cole's brother had fallen in love with postwar jazz by the time his younger sister started tagging along. She was immediately taken by the intimacy and beauty of Sarah Vaughan, Anita O'Day, Billie Holiday, and Betty Carter. Jazz comprised an art that was both compelling and rich with deep emotion for Cole. She had found her base.
In 1983, Cole left Halifax for Toronto in search of a musical start. She gigged in and around the Queen Street music scene. Within two years, she formed the Holly Cole Trio with bassist David Piltch and pianist Aaron Davis. They spent the next year crafting a warm jazz minimalist style. Eventually, she and her band became a mainstay on the Toronto jazz circuit, impressing labels from all around. Alert Music's Tom Berry was taken by the trio's sharp presentation and offered the Holly Cole Trio a deal in 1989. The holiday Christmas Blues EP appeared that fall. Their debut, Girl Talk, was released in 1990 and the Holly Cole Trio were nearly stars in Canada. Two years later, they landed a contract with Blue Note's Manhattan imprint and issued the sensual Blame It On My Youth. It went on to sell 200,000 copies worldwide while also earning high praise in Japan. Nearly 500 copies were sold a day! The Holly Cole Trio was experimenting with pop elements by the time they recorded their 1993 effort Don't Smoke in Bed. This particular record was more tangible and glossy compared to Cole's earlier work, allowing Cole to become one of Canada's musical darlings. The trio's rendition of Johnny Nash's "I Can See Clearly Now" became a crossover hit and highlighted the group's changing direction. It was a great time for the Holly Cole Trio.
The edgy and unpredictable Temptation appeared in 1995. Cole's choice to cover classics by gravelly crooner Tom Waits was ambitious. The formula worked for her, and she reworked material by Joni Mitchell, Mary Margaret O'Hara, and the Beatles for Dark Dear Heart (1997). The Holly Cole Trio then went by Cole's solo moniker; Piltch and Davis remained with her, and Romantically Helpless followed in fall 2000. She released another holiday-themed album, Baby, It's Cold Outside, in 2001, but returned to her eclectic style with Shade in 2003 and Holly Cole in 2007. In August of 2011, Cole re-formed her original trio lineup with Davis on piano and bassist Piltch, with the addition of John Johnson (horns), Rob Piltch (guitars), and Davide DiRenzo (drums) for the recording of a live DVD/CD package. Steal the Night: Live at the Glenn Gould Studio was released in February of 2012. This set was a precursor to a studio collection of 20th and 21st century covers, entitled Night, in July. The latter recording featured an all-star band including bassist David Pilch, lap steel guitarist Greg Leisz, and percussionist Cyro Baptista. Cole followed this with an all new studio recording, entitled Night, in October of 2012.~ MacKenzie Wilson

AT just 22 years old, Tom Glover has seen the publication of his very first collection of poems, inspired by his expereince grappling with mental heath issues.
Tom, of Old Town, who has been composing poetry since the age of 15, released Love's Gutter at a book launch in the Bristol Old Vic on Wednesday.
The young writer was diagnosed with depression and anxiety at 15 before being sectioned under the Mental Health Act and hospitalised at 17. Two years later he was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. Throughout the years of treatment spent attempting to navigate the fine line between 'normality' and psychosis, poetry became a lifeline, an outlet to express his conflicting emotions and to explore and come to terms with feelings he struggled to comprehend.
Tom, who was fully discharged from hospital three months ago, never let his condition define him or hold him back from his literary ambitions.
Having crafted more than 450 poems, he approached the Stepping Out Theatre who offered to help him get his work published. Love's Gutter was officially released on Wednesday by Berforts Group Ltd and is now available on Amazon.
"I was sectioned and lived in hospital for about five and a half years," he said. "My last admission helped me a lot, I had a great community psychiatric nurse who supported me.
"The first step to getting help is to talk and writing was an outlet, a way to express myself."
Much of his poetry touches upon his battle with his illness and centres on the themes of love, loss and life.
The talented young man said he hoped his journey would encourage other patients to pursue their passion and not allow themselves to be stifled by labels.
"I always had faith in my writing and strove toward that goal and I'm proud to have had the privilege of being published.
"I don't think my work would be as emotionally charged if I had not gone through certain events in life. They shaped me.
"If you want to excel in something then you have to go for it and get the help you need when you need it.
"I am not 100 per cent and I will never be but just because someone labels you with a mental health problem, it does not mean that you should sit back, accept it and not go for the things you want to achieve."
Love's Gutter by Thomas Glover, Berforts Group Ltd, £7.99, is available on Amazon.

I am glad to find this site, as I have had trouble locating others with gallbladder cancer, because it is so rare. I was diagnosed about 2 months ago following surgery to unblock my bile duct. I am feeling good now, but know that the prognosis is poor, and that chemo is in my future. At just 59 years, with a young family, I have a lot to live for, and I am eager to learn from the experiences of others, and to hear about those who have survived longer than the 2-6 months often cited.

Happ's free passes, command issues sink Blue Jays
Ties career high with seven walks as Toronto falls 10 1/2 games back
TORONTO -- J.A. Happ is walking a fine line between navigating through a lineup and not trusting his stuff enough on the mound.
The Blue Jays' fifth starter struggled with his control for the second consecutive game, but this time it came back to bite him a lot more than it did his previous time out in New York.
Happ tied a career high with seven walks and lasted just 3 2/3 innings while the Blue Jays' offense continued to struggle in a 3-1 loss to the Red Sox on Thursday night at Rogers Centre.
"I think there's a line between not giving in and making quality pitches, and I was constantly on the wrong side of that line tonight," Happ said. "I made it tough on myself."
Happ's struggles began in the second inning, when he surrendered two hits and a pair of walks en route to a two-run frame. It was a relatively ugly way to start the game and proved to be just a glimpse of what was about to come in the fourth.
That's when the 30-year-old Happ lost all command of the strike zone by walking four batters. The Blue Jays had been hoping for a long outing to help preserve their bullpen, but manager John Gibbons gave up on that after Happ walked the bases loaded with two outs.
Toronto managed to escape the fourth without any damage, but Happ was charged with the two runs on three hits while throwing just 47 of his 95 pitches for strikes. The seven walks matched the career high he set back on July 7, 2011, as a member of the Astros.
Happ said he watched video of his outing but didn't notice anything wrong with his mechanics. The problem appears to be more with how he was approaching the Red Sox hitters.
"I've looked at the mechanical thing and I think it's just a mental thing of finding a way to get it done, make a quality pitch," Happ said. "It's not a lineup you want to give in against, but at the same time, you're not helping anybody by doing what I did tonight.
"It all starts with fastball command, and generally I have that, but tonight I didn't. That sets the table for a tough night, but I'm looking forward to the next one, I anticipate that being a lot better. There's no physical issue or anything."
The Blue Jays' offense got off to the best start possible when Brett Lawrie hit his fourth career leadoff homer in the first against Red Sox right-hander Ryan Dempster.
However, it was all downhill for Toronto from that point on. Dempster loaded the bases in the third, but he got out of the inning without surrendering any runs and pitched with relative ease until coming out of the game after the sixth.
Dempster was charged with just the one run on four hits while walking three and striking out four. The British Columbia native also moved to 6-0 while pitching on Canadian soil, but it was the first time this year he didn't record at least seven strikeouts.
"He doesn't give in," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "He didn't have his best stuff overall tonight, but he uses the whole count when he needs to. He's got the knack to not let the game speed up on him and try to reach back and just go with sheer velocity.
"He uses his secondary pitches, which he was able to induce some ground balls, but veteran presence and experience shines through in those situations."
Toronto's lack of offense continues to be the biggest problem surrounding the struggling franchise. The Blue Jays have now scored three runs or fewer in 17 of their 29 games, and as a result have fallen to 10 1/2 games back in the American League East.
Just as concerning for the Blue Jays is they have won just one series and have yet to win more than two games in a row at any point this year. Lawrie said after the game it's time for the club to make its struggles a thing of the past.
"You know what? If we keep beating ourselves up, it's going to be a long year," Lawrie said. "It's time we start putting stuff behind us. Just come here and play baseball. That's what we all got here doing, and that's important.
"It's time to get out there and have that mentality of, 'Let's go.' We're hesitant on that point right now. We know it's there, we have strengths, but at the same time, we didn't get our jobs done tonight."

As Congress looks for opportunities to save money, the Government Accountability Office recommends that lawmakers start by looking at what's in their own wallets.
A new GAO study highlights the potential cost benefits of replacing the $1 bill with a $1 coin. The extinction of the $1 bill could give the government approximately $4.4 billion worth of savings over the next 30 years. On average, the $1 bill has a lifespan of under five years while the $1 coin's durability gives it a lifespan of an estimated 30 years.
While the proposal may be cost-effective, it's not going to happen without the buy-in from a pretty important group: American consumers.
"For such a replacement to be successful, the $1 coin would have to be widely accepted and used by the public," the GAO writes.
That could be a big stumbling block. My colleague, Claes Bell, explained in a post last year that Americans tend to avoid using $1 coins. They cling to old habits, he wrote, and many of them simply refuse to fill their purses and pockets with coins.
Even if you convince consumers to use them, businesses would still need to make plenty of adjustments.
The switch has worked in other countries, however. In Canada, the government saved $450 million in just five years by replacing the small-value bill with a coin. As headlines of the dreaded fiscal cliff continue to dominate the news, it's hard to ignore a proposal that carries great potential to cut government spending.
What do you think? Are you in favor of replacing a paper bill with a coin to save the government money?

Citation: Yoo, C., Nghiem, N.P., Hicks, K.B., Kim, T. 2011. Pretreatment of corn stover using low-moisture anhydrous ammonia (LMAA) process. Bioresource Technology. 102:10028-10034. Interpretive Summary: Production of fuel ethanol from cellulosic biomass feedstocks like switchgrass and corn stover by the biochemical option requires a pretreatment step. Most pretreatment processes have three serious problems which prevent commercial applications, namely destruction of valuable carbohydrates, high chemical costs in biomass, and use of very large volumes of water. Previously we developed the use of aqueous ammonia (SAA) and (SAA + ethanol)processes which preserve the original feedstock. In the carbohydrate content of this new work, we developed a further improved pretreatment process using anhydrous ammonia to minimize water and ammonia inputs for cellulosic ethanol production, designated the low moisture anhydrous ammonia (LMAA) pretreatment. We found following the pretreatment step the biomass could be hydrolyzed with commercial enzymes and fermented to ethanol without the need of an additional washing step, thus resulting in tremendous savings of water. This pretreatment method also achieved very high preservation of both cellulose and hemicellulose in the biomass feedstock. Ammonia recycle allowed significant savings on chemical costs. Ammoniation of the biomass using anhydrous ammonia, i.e. adsorption of ammonia onto the biomass in the flow-through reactor, also could work as a sterilization step, which would allow long-term storage of the feedstock. It is anticipated that this new pretreatment process would help improve the overall economics of cellulosic ethanol production and allow it to move closer to commercial feasibility.
Technical Abstract: A simple pretreatment method using anhydrous ammonia was developed to minimize water and ammonia inputs for cellulosic ethanol production, termed the low moisture anhydrous ammonia (LMAA) pretreatment. In this method, corn stover with 30 - 70 percent moisture was contacted with anhydrous ammonia in a reactor under nearly ambient conditions. After the ammoniation step, biomass was subjected to a simple pretreatment step at moderate temperatures (40 - 120 degree C) for 48 - 144 h. Pretreated biomass was saccharified and fermented without an additional washing step. With 3 percent glucan loading of LMAA-treated corn stover under best treatment conditions (0.1 g-ammonia + 1.0 g-water per g biomass, 80 degree C, and 96 h), simultaneous saccharification and cofermentation using recombinant E. coli KO11 and enzymes (15 FPU cellulase + 30 CBU beta-glucosidase + 1,000 GXU xylanase per g-glucan) resulted in 24.2 g/l (89 percent of theoretical ethanol yield based on glucan + xylan in corn stover).

John was shot twice at that battle....1 bullet in the shoulder, the other in a lung. Not sure which side was involved - I know that only one of the bullets was able to be removed (assuming the one in his shoulder)....The one that was left apparently gave him trouble throughout his life.

It took a lot of nerve this morning for the head of the National Rifle Association to call for armed guards in every school across the United States just one week after the horrific shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary. Militarizing our country's schools is an extreme overreaction and not the answer to countering the killing.
During NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre's press conference, he disrespected the victims, blamed everyone but the gun culture and completely ignored the fact that there needs to be a wider discussion on how to prevent gun violence altogether, along with a need to improve care for mentally ill people like gunman Adam Lanza.
With all the funding cuts to education, LaPierre's idea to post armed guards at every school is unattainable and ludicrous. On top of that, schools are already capable of hiring guards to protect students. Further, it's not at all clear whether an armed guard posted at Sandy Hook would have been able to stop Lanza, who entered the school with a military-style weapon and high-capacity clip.
An armed guard was on duty during the 1999 shooting at Colorado's Columbine High School, but 12 students and a teacher were still gunned down by a pair of young men who were clearly disturbed.
"The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun," LaPierre said in a defiant rant that took aim at the influence of violent video games, how the news media allegedly "demonizes" gun owners and complacency by the federal government. Sorry to burst LaPierre's bubble, but stopping guns with more guns doesn't make us safer.
Not once did LaPierre discuss the need to balance firearm policy with Second Amendment protections for the sake of improving public safety. President Barack Obama has taken the right first step by appointing Vice President Joe Biden to oversee renewed efforts to end gun violence. Obama's call for action must be followed up quickly - and intelligently - to effectively end the senseless killing.

As Minnesota consumers start planning for their insurance needs for Open Enrollment and the opening of Minnesota's health insurance marketplace, MNsure, starting today, October 1, 2013, the Minnesota Department of Commerce urges consumers to brush up on their insurance terms and learn about the health reform changes that will go into effect. Understanding the terms and components of health insurance coverage will help consumers find health insurance that fits both their financial and health needs.
Open enrollment and MNsure, our state-based online health insurance marketplace, opens on October 1, 2013. This is the beginning for the initial open enrollment period for products that will provide coverage beginning January 1, 2014. Open enrollment for the first year of operation will run six months, until March 31, 2014.
Consumers who have not bought insurance before, open enrollment might be a new concept. Open enrollment is the specific time of the year that someone can buy or change their insurance coverage. This year's open enrollment applies to the new, enhanced benefit plans (including the Essential Health Benefits) and whether someone wants to buy coverage through MNsure or not.
Do I need to buy insurance during open enrollment?
In general, Minnesotans that already have health insurance coverage do not need to buy a new plan.
Consumers that have "minimum essential coverage" which includes government-program coverage like Medicare, Medicaid/Medical Assistance, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), veteran's coverage and TRICARE, or employer-sponsored coverage or individually purchased coverage do not need to purchase new coverage. However, it does not include plans that have limited benefits, like vision or dental plans, disability policies, or worker's compensation plans. And beginning in 2015, high risk pool coverage and certain self-insured student plans will no longer qualify as "minimum essential coverage".
Why should I look at new health insurance coverage during open enrollment?
Open enrollment is the best time for Minnesotans to explore coverage options – especially if you are an uninsured individual or family needing private insurance coverage. If you already have insurance coverage in the individual market, open enrollment is a good time to learn about the new benefits that will be available or to see whether you qualify for financial assistance if you purchase health insurance through MNsure.
If you are uninsured, once open enrollment ends, it will be harder to get coverage. After March 31, 2014, health insurance companies will not be required to accept people applying for individual policies until the next open enrollment.
Health Reform and Health Insurance – What Minnesotans need to know:
Individual and small group health plans will need to include a comprehensive set of benefits, covering services like hospitalization, emergency care, maternity care, and prescriptions.
Health plan companies will no longer be able to deny you coverage if you have a pre-existing condition.
Your premiums can only vary based on your age, where you live and whether you smoke.
Open enrollment for MNsure, Minnesota's online health insurance marketplace, begins on October 1, 2014. If you buy a health plan through MNsure, you may qualify for financial help to purchase a policy or to reduce the amount you pay for care.
Agents, brokers, navigators, and other assisters are available to help you find coverage, whether or not you want to enroll in coverage through MNsure.
Health reform has created new opportunities for scams, but there are many things you can watch out for when you're buying coverage to prevent being a victim.
Still need help understanding your health insurance?
Check out Insurance 101 for some of the key terms you need to know.

During open enrollment, as with any insurance transaction, the Commerce Department reminds consumers to take time to understand all of the options available. Whether buying coverage online through MNsure, with the assistance of a navigator or through a broker or agent, take time to understand the coverage.
The Minnesota Department of Commerce is here to help.
Call our Consumer Response Team at 651-539-1600 or toll-free at 1-800-657-3602 (in Greater Minnesota) if you have any questions about your insurance or if you believe you have been a victim of a scam or fraud.

D: You're lying, A.
C: Yeah, A, you are lying.
B: A is not lying, guys.
D: That wallet is owned by C.
E: Yeah, D is telling the truth.
B: No, E. That's your wallet.
You remember that at least 2 of your friends always tell the truth (truthtellers), while at least 2 always lie (liars).
Thanks to your memory, however, you can't remember which friend lies or tells the truth.
Can you figure out who owns the wallet?
AnswerC owns the wallet.
B's first statement says that A is telling the truth that it is A's wallet. His second statement, however, says that it is E's wallet. The statements cannot be true at the same time, so B lied in both of them. B is a liar.
Since B was lying when he said that A is telling the truth, A is the other liar, too.
C and D are automatically truthtellers, since they both told the truth when they said A was lying. E is also a truthteller since he said that D told the truth.
Therefore, C owns the wallet.

A standing-room only crowd witnessed the Grand Opening of the Stanley Stout Center on the campus at Kansas State University on Friday, March 1, 2013. The new facility was dedicated to the well-known and respected auctioneer who passed away in May of 2006.
Immediately following the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Kansas State University's 36th Annual Legacy bull and female sale was held in the sparkling new arena. The sale is a project of the Livestock Sales Management class at Kansas State, under the direction of David Nichols, Dan Moser, herdsman Ryan Breiner and animal science department head Ken Odde.
The Stout Center is a multi-purpose facility built in honor of the auctioneer who cried the Legacy sale for many years, who was an alumnus and great supporter of Kansas State, and who was remembered for his unfailing support and assistance to students. The center is located north of the Purebred Beef Unit across Kimball Avenue.
"This multi-purpose facility is a first-rate teaching and merchandising arena geared toward allowing more students hands-on learning opportunities in livestock and equine areas," according to a statement from the faculty published in the sale catalog. "We feel the Colonel would be proud of this barn and of the next generation of beef industry leaders that will use it every day."
A portrait of Stanley Stout hangs in the new facility's entryway, highlighting his signature motto: "The only sale that matters is yours." The artist was Dennis Schiel.
All of the funding for the facility came from a long-list of donors. But a large donation was committed last year by Reading, Kan., rancher Rich Porter that set the project on its way to completion. "I thought it would be great to fund a building at K-State when I retired or died," he said. "When I heard about the desire to build a multi-use building in honor of Stanley Stout, I decided this was it. Sure, I hadn't retired or died yet, but I thought there would probably never be a better and more cost-effective building than this."
Industry professionals attending the event said the new facility was exceptional, and that Stout would be pleased that it carries his name. More important to Stout, many believe, is how the facility can be used to help students and further establish Kansas State as a leader in animal science teaching and research. It will also provide a venue for classes, livestock judging contests and 4-H and FFA activities.
"It was important that this facility be built," said Pat Koons, rancher and president of the Livestock and Meat Industry Council at Kansas State. One of Stout's close friends, Koons helped spearhead the efforts to raise money for the facility and championed the cause as critical for Kansas State. "This state-of-the art facility will help keep Kansas State at the forefront of animal science education. It will help attract the brightest students and the best faculty, and help Kansas State retain them here in the Flint Hills."
While the building is complete, funding needs remain for furnishings, technology purchases and upkeep of the building. If you'd like to contribute, please contact Emilie Fink at firstname.lastname@example.com or 785-532-7571 or make a gift online.

The family of a teenager who suffered life-changing injuries when a car ploughed through a red light and knocked her down have called for a law change after learning the driver faces just a fine and points on his licence.
Miriam Parker, 18, was in a coma for a month following the collision at a pelican crossing in Selsdon Park Road, South Croydon, on New Year's Day and, despite defying doctors' warnings she might die, will need care for the rest of her life.
The crash left the teenager, then 17, with a severe brain injury and reduced mobility, meaning she cannot return to her family's home in Carshalton when she leaves the Children's Trust centre in Tadworth, where she has been undergoing intensive rehabilitation since leaving hospital in March.
Amin Aminullah, 40, of Addington Road, Selsdon, last month admitted driving without due care and attention - a charge that means he may not lose his licence despite leaving the Archbishop Tenison's High School pupil's life "turned upside down".
Her family - including mother Davina, 53, and sisters Kirsty, 21, and Loren, 19 - plan to campaign for a change to the law, which currently does not take into account the seriousness of the injury inflicted by careless driving.
Despite the family's appeals, Crown Prosection Service decided there was insufficent evidence to charge Aminullah with the more serious offence of dangerous driving.
Davina said: "I'm grateful that she is still alive but our lives have been turned upside down. She is going to need help for the rest of her life. For a parent that is a horrendous thought. You're not always going to be there.
"I feel that they have not charged him with the right charge. He might not even get a ban from driving. He drove through a red light and did not even brake.
"Miriam feels she has lost her life. She has lost her independence. Everything has changed completely. All her friends are going to university."
Amin Aminullah leaves Croydon Magistrates Court yesterday
Miriam, who has aspired to be a nurse since she was 14, had been studying for her A-levels and was offered places at three universities before the accident, of which she has no memory.
Family and friends held a vigil by her bedside at St George's Hospital in Tooting in the weeks following the collision, with doctors at one point warning she was unlikely to survive.
A group of close friends visited her "nearly every day" she was in hospital, her mother said.
She added: "She has made a miraculous recovery considering she was not expected to live. The fact that she is here and she can talk and walk at all is a miracle.
"She is a fighter. When she came out of the coma the first thing she said was that she was determined to walk again. As far as she is concerned she is still going to be a nurse."
Miriam now hopes to return to school in September, but will be forced to leave the flat she shares with her mum because the block's concrete stairs mean it is now unsuitable.
Sutton Council is looking for properties so they can be rehoused but has not yet found anywhere appropriate.
Davina said: "We have lost everything. My daughter will never fully recover and we are going to lose our house we have lived in for 15 years.
"I could end up in bed-and-breakfast accommodation with my daughter. It has all been horrendous."
Aminullah was due to be sentenced by Croydon magistrates yesterday, but the hearing was adjourned after the court failed to book an interpreter.
His lawyer said he was "deeply sorry" for the collision.
A spokeswoman for the Crown Prosecution Service said: "The law on bad driving primarily requires consideration of the standard of the defendant's driving rather than the consequences of his or her actions, however serious they may be.
"This case was thoroughly reviewed and a charge of dangerous driving was considered. However, there was insufficient evidence to prove that the defendant's driving fell so far below the standard expected that he could be realistically convicted of dangerous driving.
"It was decided that the appropriate charge was driving without due care and attention.
"While the level of injury of the victim can be aggravating factor for sentencing purposes, it cannot be considered when determining the level of charge.
"Our thoughts are with Ms Parker and her family at this difficult time."
Aminullah is now due to be sentenced on Tuesday.

Over Easter weekend, I walked into one of those produce-has-entered-the-mainstream conversations.
I arrived at the point where my sister-in-law was explaining to my mother- and father-in-law that "the cartels are extorting money from the lime growers, which makes the prices of limes go up."
Whoa, sister (in-law)! Produce Man to the rescue! I threw on my multicolored, PBH-approved cloak made of breathable, shelf-life extending film and swooped in to save the day.
In my sister-in-law's defense, she's lived in Mexico for 14 years. Had the sister-in-law from Colorado or the one from Omaha started opining on this or that corner of the produce industry, my feathers might have been more ruffled.
But despite her Mexican cred, I took full advantage of my chance to pontificate.
It's not the cartels causing the high lime prices, folks, I said. It's Mother Nature, the original pitiless gangster who doesn't give a fig for what ordinary, decent citizens think.
Mother Nature, and maybe a touch of citrus greening.
The Cartels Taking Over the Produce Industry and Just About Everything Else Too is one of those mainstream media narratives that has seized the public imagination and doesn't want to let go.
You can certainly see why. The terror and reach of the cartels is hard to overestimate.
But now that the Mexican lime crisis is over, with once-triple-digit markets continuing to fall quickly, a look back confirms what all the people who really knew what was going on have been saying from the beginning.
"Even with hindsight, (growers and importers) are sticking with the original statement: the supplies were a result of bad weather," Bret Erickson, president and chief executive officer of the Mission-based Texas International Produce Association, told me.
"I still haven't heard any personal stories from our guys. It doesn't mean it isn't happening."
Widely reported stories of thefts of loads of pricey limes also, in retrospect, turned out to have little effect on prices or volumes, Erickson said.
In fact, whether or not it's related to citizen militias pushing back against the Knights Templar, one of the fiercest cartels, Erickson has heard reports of growers making such good money they're buying up more land for fruits and vegetables.
The battle in Mexico to prevent the effects of greening has begun in earnest, Erickson said. The prospects are frightening, and limes are among the most vulnerable commodities.
But greening likely accounted for little of the historic market spike earlier this spring.
"It takes a number of years before it really impacts the supply."
The cartels and greening are real. But in the case of the Great Lime Spike of 2014, they were no match for the weather.
What's your take? Leave a comment and tell us your opinion.

absolutely. i want my pokemanz
I think that most iOS games SUCK when compared to dsi & psp games, they are simply not deep & feel cheap. Nintendo & Sony need a portable system that comes with there own version of an AppStore, where we can conveniently buy games. They need to get with the times! Duh
I will stick with established handhelds for real mobile gaming. The way some of the controls are for some decent games for movement just don't work well on a touch screen. Mainly talking about directional pad.
There are some decent games to play on iOS but for RPG side the issue is stated above.
Have a DS, not intereseted in 3DS to much. Used it several times at a friend's house. Waiting on Vita to give it a test drive.
Well, since no jailbreak is available for the 4S, then heck yes!!! I'd love some legal NES games on my iDevice!! ROMs are so hard to come by these days
Mario Kart on the iOS platform?
I personally would love Nintendo games on iPhone games they sell for handheld would do great on iOS.
I have an XL but it's more a novelty now. Nintendo needs to swallow their pride and port some of their top sellers. I know alot of kids heck and adults would love to have Zelda, Mario, Kirby, Pokemon, etc. on their iDevices. They would increase their popularity IMO.
They have a poor version of an AppStore already and it flat out sucks.
3DS failure is only the beginning. I know I dont care to have it.
Maybe I should change my screen name. Lmao
What a bullsh*t article with zero facts to back it up.
Where are sales figures?
Where are the figures that Nintendo has spent a ton of money in the last 24 months on R&D for two new products?
Where is the fact Nintendo still has more money in the bank than Sony?
Why does Apples success not effect Microsoft or Sonys gaming divisions?
Why is the 3DS selling better than the DS did in its first year?
I dont know bout u guys but I've had NES,SNES,PS games already on my iphone since I got my iphone 3G when it was released. NES app anyone???

Sometimes there are moments in a game that set the theme, other times there are moments which completely turn a game on its head. Henry Speight's try right on the half-time siren was one of the latter in the Brumbies' 23-6 victory over the Waratahs in Canberra on Saturday night.
Up until that point the scores were locked at 6-6, with the Waratahs slightly up on possession stats. But the Brumbies, subjectively at least, were up on effectiveness with the possession they had. From that moment on, and particularly when punctuated by another Brumbies' try not four minutes into the second half, only one team seemed the likely victors.
Importantly, in the creation of both their tries, the Brumbies maintained possession for 12 and 16 phases respectively – and then grasped their slim opportunity when presented. And that was the difference between the sides, for whenever the Waratahs created tryscoring opportunities it was their looseness in contact that cost them, compared with the Brumbies' perseverance and expediency.
However, the Brumbies' joy at their two-game Australian conference lead was dampened when injury struck their star five-eighth Christian Lealiifano (after the siren). Having previously lost Matt Toomua for the season, it will be a good test of the Brumbies' depth to see how they recover from Lealiifano's absence.
If they can find a reasonable replacement and instruct him quickly in their style, they may recover well, as a lot of what they are doing will not change. Although Lealiifano was important, their recovery has been built on team rather than on any individual.
They will still strive for accuracy in the forwards, combined with speed and simple angle running in the face of the opposition through the backs. Success ultimately will be in the subtlety and simplicity: how easy can they make things for Lealiifano's replacement and how quickly the team can adjust to the subtle differences any personnel change brings.
The number of injuries does highlight the vulnerability of the Australian teams, as our already questionable depth is further stretched.
Debate continues about Australian rugby dissipating its stocks through the five teams in our conference, as there is no doubt that at times we have looked thin on the ground in talent. The adage, "if you spread yourself too thin you'll disappear" comes to mind. But while this may be true for now, it needn't be true forever. Indeed when viewing the Rebels' narrow 41-35 loss to the Bulls, the Force's unfortunate 17-13 loss to the Cheetahs, and the Reds' 15-11 heartbreak against the Crusaders, there is evidence to suggest the gap is not as big as some would suggest.
Further, although it may take the most Pollyanna of perspectives, there is a potential upside to this run of injuries and that is that more Australian rugby players are exposed to the Super Rugby stage.
Geniuses and freaks aside, often the only difference between a very good provincial – and even test player – and a very good club player is opportunity. In the past, one of Australia's biggest weaknesses has also been our greatest strength. We rarely had the depth of other nations, but what talent we enjoyed thrived in either the Waratahs or the Reds, and later the Brumbies, so they became weapons on the international stage.
Front-rowers Ewen McKenzie, Phil Kearns and Tony Daly played years together with the Waratahs and Wallabies, Tim Horan and Jason Little forged a memorable pairing in the centres for the Reds, as did George Gregan and Stephen Larkham for the Brumbies.
Once the top test team is established this season, it is possible there will be very few combinations that have regularly played together at provincial level. This means we must look to the positives of the current environment, while solving the problems it presents.
The goal must be to exploit the broader talent pool that has been given the gift of greater exposure.
To maximise such a potential advantage in the long term will rely largely on the ability of the Wallabies' coaching staff to quickly foster and integrate individuals within team patterns. It will be fascinating to see how Jake White and his team handle this problem after their bye round next weekend.
If they don't adjust accordingly it may be the negative turning point for their season.

Pardon my crappy handwriting
The language itself is currently called slangwin (pronounced [slɑːŋwɪn]) but that might change later.
Now here's some sample text from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
It says:
"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
Keep in mind that it's transliterated phonetically
It's written vertically with each horizontal part representing one syllable. The glyphs are all attached to each other with horizontal lines in between each other. Do NOT exceed 4 glyphs on each syllable. Each vertical line attached to the left attaches the syllables together and shows how long the word is. Diphthongs (like the first word in the sample [aɪ]) are represented by a small vertical line with the first vowel on top and the second on the bottom. The punctuation .,!?&: are written next to the letters and the punctuation "()/ are written on the tops and bottoms of the words.
That's pretty much all I can explain so tell me what you think, any suggestions, tips for making conscripts, etc. Thanks!

MEDINA, Ohio (AP) -- Lottery officials say a Mega Millions ticket sold in northeastern Ohio is worth $250,000.
The Ohio Lottery says the lucky auto-pick ticket for Friday's drawing was sold at a convenience store in Medina, about 30 miles southwest of Cleveland. It matched the five regular numbers but missed the Mega Ball number.
Nationwide, no one had all the winning numbers to take the jackpot in the multistate lottery game. The top prize rises to an estimated $94 million for the next drawing, on Tuesday.
The winning numbers Friday were: one, 16, 18, 25 and 27. The Mega Ball was three, and the Megaplier was four.

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated July 24th, 2012
ADNAN OKTAR: Jerry Davis, the former priest and lawyer, responds to Joel; "In particular, it is impossible according to Biblical tradition for that people who will come from the north mentioned in Ezekiel to be the Turks. This is not open to interpretation. There is no question of the north of Jerusalem being the north. And in discussing the antichrist in Thessalonians he described how he will claim to be divine. It is impossible for a Muslim to announce his own divinity and mislead other Muslims." My brother, what Muslim will believe anyone who turns up and says that he is Allah? Is that at all possible? "And it is impossible to deceive Muslims in that sense; someone who depicts himself as a Christian might be more likely" he says. "Joel takes those parts of the Bible he wants to use," he says.
Of course I cannot say anything if he believes in the Trinity. That is a belief; but I do want him to be honest. Look, I repeat. Allah, the Holy Spirit and Jesus the Messiah – now I ask, which one of those can one pray to? Christians say to all three. What will you say if I advise you to pray to Allah? I do not, he says. So do you pray to the Holy Spirit? He says he only regards Jesus the Messiah as Allah and believes in him. And you can see the position of the Christian world as a result. In America you can count the number of young people who believe in Allah on the fingers of one hand. Christianity is increasingly collapsing and shrinking. Instead of saying that, you should say that Allah is One and that Jesus the Messiah is a prophet. Jesus the Messiah himself says that he is a servant of Allah. He prays to Allah. Jesus the Messiah never says that he is Allah. Everywhere he says that he is a servant of Allah and prays to Allah. How can Allah pray to Allah? My brother, he [Jesus Christ] sleeps and eats. Does Allah sleep and eat? He has physical needs. This is really unbelievable. It is quite astonishing. But when one asks, and there are Christian people I know and they come here and we dine together, they say we can regard Jesus the Messiah as a manifestation there, as a manifestation of Allah. All right, regard Jesus the Messiah as a manifestation of Allah. We also regard him as a manifestation of Allah. Isn't that right? The Torah refers to the children of Allah, referring to all believers, and I imagine that this belief must have come from that. I will clarify that passage later, insha'Allah.

JAMIE REED wants to be somebody's "superstar" instead of York City's super-sub.
The 25-year-old forward, who has handed in a transfer request at Bootham Crescent, is the most prolific replacement in the Minstermen's history with 11 of his 25 goals for the club coming off the bench.
That figure puts him four ahead of Richard Brodie, who netted seven times as a City substitute, but Reed is now keen to set scoring records in a side's starting XI.
Of Reed's 82 outings for City since his arrival from Bangor City in January 2011, only 36 have been from the start.
His latest 20-minute blast from the bench came at Cheltenham, where he helped the visitors recover from a goal down to earn a point thanks to Jason Walker's 84th-minute equaliser.
Reed was pleased to contribute but has also outlined his reasons for wanting to seek pastures new to The Press, saying: "I want to be the superstar now rather than the super-sub.
"That title is definitely something I want to look at getting rid of and I want to contribute more in a team where I can play a full 90 minutes and get the goals to go with that. I went to see the manager because I want to play more games.
"That's been a bit short here and I've just not had many chances. I'm 25 now and don't want to be sitting on the bench because the next couple of years are meant to be the prime time in a footballer's career."
Centre-forward Reed feels the reasons for his restricted opportunities at Bootham Crescent could be related to manager Gary Mills' preference for a 4-3-3 formation and the form of £60,000 signing Jason Walker, adding: "It might be down to the formation or personnel because Jason has done well in that central position so I can't really argue with that.
"That's the position I want to play but, even when sometimes I have played on the right, I've enjoyed that as well. Hopefully, though, I can go somewhere and get more action."
The news that Reed wanted to move on has seen the popular player flooded with messages of support from fans and he admitted that he has been touched with the response, saying: "I've had messages from all sorts of different places and it makes you a bit emotional because I've had two good years with the club.
"There have been a lot of ups and not many downs. I've loved every minute of it. It's just the time I need to push on in my career."
With Blue Square Bet Premier trio Grimsby, Wrexham and Stockport all rumoured to be interested in his services, Reed also revealed he would be prepared to drop down a level to resurrect his career.
"I've done it before," Reed reasoned. "When I was a kid, I went from Wrexham down to the Welsh League and it got me my move here.
"Sometimes you have to take a step back to take a step, or a couple of steps, forward.
"Obviously, I would like to stay in the League if that was possible but, at this stage, I am waiting to see what happens.
"There's been no interest I know of and I am still a York City player so I'm here to do a job and to do well."
Answering any doubters concerning his commitment to the club following the transfer request, Reed added: "I think people can see from the way I performed on Saturday when I came on that I put myself about and got myself in positions to help the team.
"I maybe dragged a couple of defenders away to give Jason the space in the area to score his goal.
"There are definitely no issues for me in terms of my commitment to the cause while I'm here and I will always do my best.
"I've always said that since day one and I think I've always done that."
Reed echoed Mills' sentiments, stating that there has been no falling out between manager and player and also understands that the club would want a fee for his services if he leaves before the transfer window closes at the end of this month.
"That's fair enough and it's not up to me," Reed pointed out. "I've said my piece and the gaffer has said his.
"We've shaken hands and that's it. There's definitely never been a problem between us.
"Things have just not worked out and it's one of those unfortunate things."

LG Optimus Me P350 Review
0. phoneArena posted on 28 Mar 2011, 07:39
The teen-oriented LG Optimus Me P350 Android handset looks pretty cool, shaped like a bar of soap, and having five colored battery covers to choose from in pink, gray, black, blue and red. It can be viewed as the younger brother of the successful LG Optimus One, from where it borrows the 600Mhz chipset, but can it achieve the same popularity in the bargain Android niche? Read on to find out...
This is a discussion for a review. To read the whole review, click here

Bad review. The menu wasn't lagging, and a 600Mhz processor isn't bad at all considering almost all low-end android devices use a processor like that one or even a slower one.
Also the display resolution isn't that bad. It fits the size of the screen. If you look at the wildfire, it is much more noticable because it has a 3,2" inch screen (the wildfire S fixed that).

I have purchased this phone, but I am very sorry to inform all of you that, instead of changeing the set twice, the LG P350 is not giving proper battery backup. IT GIVES ONLY 4-5 HOURS battery backup, eventhough ,most of time it is in stand by mode. I usually talk only 15 minutes in a day maximum over mobile. As per the 'expert' advise, I even stopped all services to save battery. I found that even if I switch off the phone, battery drains. This mobile put me in a very humiliating situation since often my phone exhausts the battery and in shutdown shutdown status. I am missing important calls also. I have a request ; if anybody can help me to get proper backup out of this phone pl. inform me. My email is firstname.lastname@example.com. Pl. note that I have got changed the mobile equipment itself from the shop twice. Also I have stopped all the services.

I did not get a SD card with mine, supplied by my telecomm supplier.
The battery is lasting only one day, without much use (1-2 short calls per day, and no browsing or other 'smart' uses as I cant get them to work.
There is a paucity of info with the hand set out of the box. If you have never used a smart phone before, there is virtually no help provided to get set up and started.
I find the process of answering calls cumbersome after a flip phone.
10. rohit.... (unregistered)
the best way to save battery is to turn off 3g as the phone have an option to switch between 2g and 3g even i used to use 3g but i discover its the main reason for poor battery life now i use 2g in this phone and even if i listen music whole night it still have more than 50 per cent battery..
hope this might help..

i just bought this cellphone(lg optimus me) and i find it very irritating, it disconnects in wi-fi whenever i go to android market, i do have this x8 and it is much better than "lg optimus me" when it comes to battery life, x8 battery is 3 hours longer than lg me when browsing, lg me can't download in some wifi hot spots, i think there's a wifi compatibility with this phone,
13. rexxxy (unregistered)
how loud is it when listening to the radio & other music? my last phone wasn't loud enough with the head sets in i could hear everything around me still and im after something that goes louder through the headset...
14. deanne belle (unregistered)
i bought this phone last monday. and so i think i made a huge mistake of buying it! the battery back up is just about 5-6 hours. and it's just sooo slow!!! like the other time i wanted to see my pictures, the gallery is so slow, it takes about 2 whole minutes before the pics appear. hmm.. any suggestions on how i can make it less irritating? and also, about the battery life? thanks!
15. Mariya-pink (unregistered)
I think that this is a very good phone and i was right to have bought it. People here have commented that the battery does not last at all, but i dont think that is true. I have my phone on from the morning till night, i usually have wi-fi turned on the whole time (because i forget to turn it off) and even though i do not use the 3G internet, it says 3G at the top of my screen so it probably means i use a 3G calling system (am i right? im not very good at these 3G stuff sorry!) i also listen to music about 3-4 hours per day, and play games about 2 hours per day. But even with all this, i still have about a quarter of my battery still left at the end of the day. The problems are that i cannot download some of the games i want, and it is only possible to pay for games with cashcard so i am only able to download free games. but the screen is nice, thread view for sms is nice, phone is fast, internet is fast; overall i would rate it about 9 out of 10 :)
16. Mariya-pink (unregistered)
oh yes, and there is no problem with the android market or wi-fi connection either, as someone mentioned above :)

30. burty (unregistered)
I think the Optimus ME smartphone offers great value for the price. I'd recommend this to people who want to use smartphones but don't want to have difficulties using them. You can download more apps by downloading LG SmartWorld from Android market. It's ideal for people who don't like complicated things.

Five-run first too much for Rangers to overcome
Plays not made lead to big frame; club drops to 0-2 on road trip
MILWAUKEE -- The Rangers' defense did not commit an error on Tuesday night, and that usually means they win the game. Texas, going into Tuesday, was 16-5 in games in which it did not commit an error.
But there were three defensive plays in the first inning that didn't get made and that led to a five-run first inning off of starter Justin Grimm. The Rangers, down 5-0 right away, couldn't come back from that and ended up losing, 6-3, to the Brewers on a crisp Wisconsin night at Miller Park.
"We almost came back, but we shouldn't have been in that hole," manager Ron Washington said. "A few plays that we didn't make ... if we had made those plays, it might have made a difference."
The Rangers, who also lost to the Cubs on Monday to begin the road trip, have lost their last four away from the Ballpark in Arlington. They are 9-9 on the road, as opposed to 11-4 at home. The Brewers had lost five straight -- all at home -- before getting off to a quick start against the Rangers.
Grimm followed up his rough first inning by throwing four scoreless and keeping the Rangers from overusing the bullpen. But he still lost his second straight and is now 2-2 with a 3.45 ERA after five starts. He also contributed to the defensive lapses that marked the opening inning.
"The ball found grass, not gloves," Grimm said. "I made a couple of good pitches and a couple of bad ones. It was a little frustrating. One inning, but I tried to stay in there and get as much out of it as I could."
Grimm's troubles began right away. Norichika Aoki led off with an infield hit and Jean Segura lined a single up the middle, putting runners on first and second. Ryan Braun then launched a drive to deep right field that appeared catchable but sailed just beyond the reach of Nelson Cruz. That brought home a run, although Segura stopped at second and Braun was held to a single because Cruz played the carom quickly.
"I saw the ball pretty well, but it carried more than I thought it would," Cruz said. "I didn't think he hit it that well. I was running, but because of the angle of the wall, I thought I was closer to the wall than I was. I jumped too soon."
That brought up Aramis Ramirez, and while he was at the plate, Grimm worked an inside pickoff move to second that caught Segura breaking for third. Segura should have been an easy out scrambling back to second. But Grimm, instead of throwing the ball to second baseman Ian Kinsler covering the bag, tossed it to shortstop Elvis Andrus, who was behind the runner. That allowed Segura to get back safely.
"That was my fault," Grimm said,
Grimm retired Ramirez on a foul pop and Rickie Weeks on a fly to left. Carlos Gomez followed with a soft line drive to left-center that David Murphy lost twice in the Miller Park background. The ball fell between him and Leonys Martin before getting past them both. Gomez ended up with a two-run double.
"I saw the ball off the bat, then I lost it, I'm not sure how," Murphy said. "I picked it up again and then I lost it again. It's just an unfortunate play."
This was the Rangers' first trip to Milwaukee since 2010, but Murphy declined to blame it on the unfamiliar background of Miller Park.
"There are times in our ballpark where I've lost balls in the background," Murphy said. "It happens a few times a year, but it really hurts when guys on base end up scoring."
Yuniesky Betancourt finished off the damage with a two-run home run, and the five-run lead was more than enough for Brewers starter Wily Peralta. He held the Rangers to two hits in the first five innings, including a home run by Mitch Moreland. The Rangers scored two in the sixth against Peralta but managed just two hits and a walk in the final three innings against the Brewers' bullpen. The Rangers were 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position.
"It was a great game for [Peralta]," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "This is a really tough lineup to go through."
The Rangers' offense has had its share of rough games this season. This is the sixth time they've been held hitless with runner in scoring position, and they've lost all six. But they expect to win when they don't commit an error. It just didn't work out that way on Tuesday night at Miller Park.
