With input costs continuing to rise, experts fear that some growers will short change their crop's yield potential by scrimping on needed nutrients. While it's tempting for farmers to cut back to save money, it may be a costly move. A significant negative impact on crop yield is possible when crops are not fertilized properly.
Estimates made by the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI) show that many growers in key production areas are not replacing the soil nutrients that have been removed by their crops. Yield short falls may occur if the nutrient deficits drop below
critical levels.
"The best and most accurate way for growers to know what nutrients will be needed by the crops they grow is to conduct a soil test," says Dan Froehlich, Ph.D., Director of Agronomic Marketing for The Mosaic Company. "This management tool allows
growers to take much of the guesswork out of a soil fertility program and to ensure adequate levels of nutrients are available in certain fields."
Today's higher commodity prices offer growers the opportunity to take full advantage of a balanced soil fertility program. Because, in spite of the rather significant increase in crop nutrient prices over the last two years, fertilizing for optimum yields still produces a profitable return investment.
When looking at a corn example from the state of Iowa in 2007 that had a fertilizer program of 140 lbs. of nitrogen (N), 70 lbs. of phosphate (P) and 55 lbs. of potash (K) per acre for 180 bu/a corn following soybeans, the result was a 197 percent return for the fertilizer investment. And even with still higher fertilizer prices in 2008, this same program would generate a 160 percent return on the fertilizer investment.
"It is important for growers to minimize the number of decisions that result in short-term cost savings, but long-term cost increases," Froehlich says. Successful farmers base input decisions on site-specific facts that help assure them that they will get optimum returns from dollars invested in inputs such as fertilizer. No matter what the economic or agronomic environment, farmers need to make the basics of a profitable crop production program a top priority.
Successful growers are using smart fertilizer practices. These growers are utilizing on-farm nutrient supplies and prioritizing fields and areas within fields as to which have the greater need for fertilization. They also are allocating money to the correct nutrients to create a balanced approach, which will maximize the effectiveness of all nutrients. And finally, these successful growers are continuously re-examining their current practices to ensure they are reaching their most profitable yields.
One common approach for making fertilization recommendations, especially for P and K, is called the "sufficiency" concept and is based only on the predicted crop response to each added nutrient. Fertilizer is applied only when there is a good chance that there will be a profitable response that year.
The other common approach to P and K fertilizer recommendations is the "build and maintenance" concept. This system is used on fields that have lower soil test levels. Nutrients are added in excess of the minimum crop requirement to build the nutrient concentrations in the soil to the point where they will not be limiting. Whatever the approach, growers need to consider the value of the crop and compare the costs of potential yield loss with the expenses associated with fertilization.
The quest for healthier lives and better diets in developing countries is the primary driving factor behind the increased global demand for fertilizer. This demand while likely to keep fertilizer prices higher, also points to the on-going need for expanded production and maximum yields. And, proper soil fertility is the foundation on which high yields are built.

Frank Carroll is 71 and has been coaching for four decades, his skaters winning seven world titles and four Olympic medals. Before Thursday, none of his pupils had ever brought home an Olympic gold.
Evan Lysacek changed all that after upsetting defending champion Evgeni Plushenko with a near-flawless performance in the men's final.
"This is just frosting on the cake for me," Carroll said. "It's not something I coveted after a while. It was something I thought maybe would never happen."
Working with Carroll, Linda Fratianne won silver in 1980, Timothy Goebel earned bronze in 2002 and a favored Michelle Kwan took silver in 1998.
"He made me believe that I could skate perfectly in the Olympics," Lysacek said. "When I first heard the results, he was the first person I thought about."
Upon arriving in Vancouver, Lysacek wrote himself a note and posted it in his room. It said, "Mind your own business." That's the philosophy Carroll taught him, and it carried Lysacek through the pressures of the games.
Carroll said he planned to celebrate with a big glass of wine.
"It's been a great career," he said. "I'm thankful to God that he's given me the talent because there are many talented coaches in the world and some more talented than I. But I've always seemed to come up with the vehicle to do it, the talent - they just sort of drift toward me. I don't really audition or seek out really talented people. They just seem to come to me."
Another Carroll student, Mirai Nagasu, will skate in the women's competition here, though the 16-year-old is not considered a medal contender.
Fratianne watched the finals on television Thursday and when she heard that Lysacek had won, she was overjoyed for Carroll.
"This is such a fulfillment for him with all his hard work, through Michelle's success and with me and with all his students," Fratianne said in a phone interview. "To see him working all the hours, I don't know how he does it."

Two arrested in Janesville drug bust
Arrested at their home at 412 Center Ave., Janesville, were Vesal Kong, 24, and Eileen Chan, 22. Both were arrested on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, running a drug house and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to a news release from the Janesville Police Department.
Police seized 25.9 grams of marijuana, $1,281 and multiple pieces of drug paraphernalia, according to the release.
Janesville police wrote a search warrant after community corrections officers reported potential illegal drug activity, according to the release.
Janesville's housing code enforcement office responded to document the living conditions at the home, according to the release. School-aged children living in the home are being placed in foster care, according to the release.

Though the players are generally supposed to be the highlight of the pre-draft workouts, a couple of fresh faces caught the attention of Milwaukee Bucks media members Wednesday morning.
Atlanta Hawks assistant coach Bob Bender and Player Development Instructor Nick Van Exel were at the Cousins Center today, helping new head coach Larry Drew orchestrate the first pre-draft workout under the new regime. Though nothing has been confirmed yet, both are likely to be added to Drew's staff soon.
Bender was an assistant coach with the Hawks these past two seasons. He served as an assistant with the Sixers from 2004-2011 and was an assistant under Mike Krzyzewski at Duke from 1983-1989.
Van Exel, a Kenosha native, spent 13 seasons in the NBA Spurs, Blazers, Warriors, Nuggets, Mavericks, and Lakers. After serving as an assistant at Texas Southern University, he joined the Hawks staff in 2010 and has been with the team since.
Their first workout in Milwaukee appeared to be a great success, so says Director of Scouting Billy McKinney.
"They did a great job. Coming in to a new situation, knowing what we're trying to look for from the players, conducting a new routine is important for our players." [There were] great teaching points that these guys made today, talking to the players about the importance of the attention to detail. It's the little things in a basketball game that helps you win games and be successful."
Bender and Van Exel are likely to be reunited with Hawks assistant Lester Conner as well. There hasn't been any word on when the staff will officially be set by Drew, but it appears that the first few slots are being filled.
There will be plenty of vacancies to be occupied, as Bucks assistants Joe Wolf, Bill Peterson, Sidney Moncrief, Chris Gilmartin, and Anthony Goldwire have all been notified that their contracts will not be renewed under the new leadership.

Duck hunting
How do you guys do it? Personally, I'm planning on doing a float trip in my canoe down local rivers and jump shooting 'em. ( I don't have any private land to hunt from a blind from). Lets hear some stories, cause the early seasons are only a month away!

Personally, Duck Hunting for me usually takes on the form of a Nintendo Entertainment System and being laughed at by some damn dog.
YMMV, of course!

We hunt private land in AR. We have 2400 acres of flooded rice to hunt. We mainly hunt from blinds (land just got leveled and we are in the process of putting the pits back in). Last year we got about 5 weeks worth of frozen fields. We couldnt bust enough ice to hunt. In that situation we hunt the dry parts of the farm. Ducks were were in the dry rice by the tens of thousands when everything froze up.
Oh yeah, and don't forget to bring the campstove to cook the bacon, eggs, and fresh duck. A friend of ours has a 15 man pit with a full size gas stove in it. Thats nice because he can cook bisuits too. One of the best duck recipes Ive had was a duck that we just shot, cut the breast out of, and cooked in the pan that we had cooked bacon in earlier that morning. Very good.

Stay on the inside of the turns . . .
in the river and you'll jump plenty of ducks within shotgun range. Used to float the S. Holston River here in NW Tennessee, especially during our wood duck season in September and had good luck, especially on the first couple days. After that, the ducks seemed to wise up, but it was only a five day season.
Floating the river works OK during the later duck season too, but it's getting kinda' cold by then and have to be REAL CAREFUL to keep the canoe away from any white water!
Now, I mainly jump shoot ducks off several farm ponds where I have cultivated hunting privileges through the years. Keeps me out of other kinds of trouble during the winter months.
Good luck . . . you're gonna' enjoy yourself!

I am reasonably certain there was a good movie in the British Serial Killer film "Alone", but the final product is, alas, not so good. Even if you could survive first-time director Philip Claydon's extreme A.D.D.-inspired directing style, you'd still have to deal with a cast of very silly characters, included by not limited to: a veteran Detective with almost no personality to speak of; his young Detective partner who thinks she's on Spring Break instead of chasing a serial killer; and cops that are so ineffectual they make the average adult in a Teen Slasher movie look competent by comparison. Films like "Alone" makes me break out the old standby, which goes something like this: "It's not that 'Alone' is a bad movie; it's just not very good."
"Alone" is about Alex, the movie's unseen serial killer, who stalks young woman in hopes of curing some deep seeded emotional issues. Also, Alex is a woman, and suffers from an extreme case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Alex has already killed one woman as the film opens, putting hardboiled cop Hannah (John Shrapnel) on her tail. Now she's targeting another young woman name Sarah (Caroline Carver) who she met at a cemetery. Needless to say Alex has a lot of problems, one of which is hearing voices in her head. In-between her daily visits to her chain-smoking caseworker (Miriam Margolyes), Alex stalks potential companions.
Directed by Claydon with a manic frenzy, "Alone" looks like a cross between "Seven" and a really bored MTV music video. In a way, Claydon's style is similar to Alex Proyas', especially in "Dark City", where we get dozens of cuts that jumps a second or so forward in time. For example, a simplistic scene of someone pouring a glass of milk will nevertheless involve a flurry of cuts. This gives the film a jerky feel, and I guess it works here, since all of the movie's stalk scenes are seen from Alex's POV. The film's repetitive nature also owes to Alex's chaotic emotional state and inner turmoil. In those ways, the filmmakers effectively convey the world as seen through Alex's filtered eyes.
But as a Serial Killer movie, "Alone" is not quite up to par. For one, it's mostly very tedious and the plotting is not very exciting. It features exactly three kill scenes, but that's misleading considering the tamed violence involved. One victim is a pushed down a flight of stairs, another dies of an accidental overdose, and a third is dispatched by way of choking — although the scene is too dark and blurry to really make out. The point is, "Alone" is not good for horror aficionados, unless you count a really disgusting 5-minute sequence when Alex force-feeds a victim. I could have done without that, especially since the rest of the movie is so tame.
Of course the object of the movie is to put us into the mind of serial killer Alex. If hearing voices and seeing the world in repetitive jagged glimpses is your thing, then "Alone" will give you an overdose of both. I could have used less Alex POV and better pacing. Even at just under 90 minutes of running time, "Alone" feels like 2 hours. Things don't seem to pop and crackle, which is a strange thing to say considering the loud and ruckus MTV-inspired directing style.
The fact that Alex is a female serial killer doesn't really factor into the movie; in fact, you never "see" Alex at all. The closest we come to seeing Alex is as a shadowy figure in the background for a split-second or so. As veteran cop Hannah, John Shrapnel ("Gladiator") has the world's greatest last name, but unfortunately his character is just as inane and uninteresting as his young partner played by Isabel Brook ("Faust"). About two-thirds into the movie, American Laurel Holloman becomes the third object of Alex's fatal attraction. Although by this point most viewers will be too bored with "Alone" to bother. The fact that the film is purposely repetitious in nature does nothing to keep the viewers' attention.
The film's best moment comes at around the 35-minute mark, when Hannah's "I'm not a cop, I'm vacationing in Cancun!" young partner storms into his apartment demanding why he's transferring her. This, mind you, after our young lass has broken into Hannah's office and rife through his desk (thus discovering the transfer papers). Gee, let's count the reasons why he wouldn't want to be partner with her, shall we? You're dismissive, you treat your veteran partner like he's a carcass on two feet, you think nothing about getting personal calls from your boyfriend at murder scenes, you like to break into your boss's office, and oh yeah, you question his every move, even though you've only been on the job for oh, a couple of days, and is still on probation as a Detective.
Of course the fact that the above scene is supposed to be dramatic and show off Isabel Brook's nonexistent acting chops only makes it more amusing. Sometimes I wonder who is to blame for this sort of signal mix-up. Did the writer fail to convey what he wanted in the script, or did the director ignore the writer's intentions? Whatever the case, the scene is good for a laugh.

Ok, I belive the problem has been fixed. I rebooted into TWRP and fixed permissions, rebooted, set the max freq to 1.5GHz.
I ran SetCPU and on the "time states" page, it lists 1.5GHz as being used WOOHOO!
Also, the frequencies now automatically downclock. Earlier, it would just sit at 1.2GHz no matter what!
I'll mark this thread as solved.

Finally ready to review this anniversary trip from the beginning of October. With food this good, its almost difficult to write about. I've been dying to eat at Minibar for a couple years now, and after a few days of frantic 10 am calling, scored a res for Sat night.
After sifting through reviews here, I settled on Komi as our other dinner option. After our trip plans had to be altered, I could no longer make it for our Komi res, however, they were VERY accommodating and found a way to squeeze us in on Friday night- much appreciated!
Arriving a good fifteen minutes late, we were greeted warmly and sat at a table in the middle of a very sparse but intimate dining room. The dozen or so tables were filled, and the room was nice, but there was virtually no decoration or anything pleasing to the eye. We ordered the Degustazione menu with pairings, my gf going with 3 wines and I with 5.
Almost immediately, the parade of Mezzethakia began. My short notes from the meal were lost with my blackberry, but I remember most of it clearly. First came a few light crudos, of kampachi and then japanese fluke, very simply dressed. In interests of full disclosure, raw seafood is really not my thing but I kept an open mind and ate everything. The crudos were very light and tasty, super fresh. More mezze included duo of scallop- a ridiculous carpaccio with shaved truffles and a too-gummy super-fine tartare (like a scallop paste almost), an akushi (sp) oyster with fennel sabayon, a king salmon tartare with shiso sorbet and pine nuts, and a delicious tiny baby brioche with lemon creme fraiche and salmon roe. There was also a tasty one bite sandwich with homemade mortadella, a thin slice of radish on a tiny roll. The famous exploding Caesar cube was soooooo good, one big bite of exploding, melting romaine. The date with mascarpone was very nice but could've used a pinch or two more of salt as it was a bit sweet. Then, a few delicious larger mezze... (yes they keep going). The absolutely most amazing baby octopus ever, cork-braised and then very nicely charred, with padron peppers and cippolini onions, also charred. SO GOOD! Then, a delicious plate of san daniele prosciutto with figs, arugula, compressed melon, and amazing little cubes of fried haloumi. I think thats it for the mezze.
For pasta course, they brought me the Boulettas w/ chanterelles, blueberries, and guanciale, and for my gf, the pappardelle w/ braised rabbit and olives. My gf absolutely loved hers and barely parted with a bite. The boulettas were very light, with an unorthadox but flavor packed combo of cubed little fried bits of the guanciale, fresh blueberries, and delicious shrooms. Would've liked a touch of salt and for the dish to be served at a higher temp, but still nice. It was at this point that she looked over at me and asked if we were done yet... lol NO!
The highlight of the meal was easily the roasted Katsikaki (goat), served with hot, spongey, pancake-ish pita bread, oregano seasoned salt, habanero sauce, tzatiziki, eggplant spread, and pickled cabbage. My gf was full before it got there, and I was near breaking point myself. The degustazione is a HUGE amount of food when its all said and done. The goat was beyond succulent, crispy skin and edges, very moist, tender meat bursting with flavor. Best. Goat. Ever. A very memorable meat experience- and i'm a huge meat eater!! Likewise, the pita was best ever status... got seconds on that one. The worst part was the diminishing capacity in my stomach. I savored the goat slowly, and even got up and took a walk around outside for 5 mins to see if I could find some more space somewhere- anything for some more of that goat. After a bit, ashamed, I had the waiter clear the table. He laughed.
Desserts were ok but really there was no more room. They brought me some too-hard greek donuts, with a mini mexican spiced chocolate shake, and my gf a play on an after dinner mint, it was a chocolate and mint creme cake, with a curried caramel and caramelized banana on top. Very good.
Wine pairings were great, went very well with the cuisine, and included many greek wines which I had never had before. Service was very nice also. Overall, the meal was interesting and innovative, and included three best evers- the Octopus, Goat, and Pita.
I voluntarily missed my UM-OKLA game for this one! And it was worth it. I was concerned that after having lusted after this meal for so long, reading about the cuisine and looking at pictures, that there was no way the meal could live up to the hype- but IT DID. What food! What creativity! The food is amazing but that doesn't begin to tell the whole story. Our very talented chefs, Brad and Ryan, were awesome and very comfortable talking about all of the dishes, techniques, components, etc... pretty much everything. They put us at ease and elevated the experience. One of the coolest parts about the experience was how the chefs are constantly toying with the diners' preconceived notions about food- especially textures!
My gf and I each went with the wine flights, I went with the Spanish flight and she with the bubbly. They were nice and worked relatively well with the meal.
The menu was broken down as such:
Pisco Sour / Beet "Tumbleweed" / "Cornbread" / "Bagels and Lox" / Olive Oil "Bon-Bon" / "Mojito" / Blue Cheese and Almond / Boneless Chicken Wing / Steamed Brioche Bun w Caviar / Cotton Candy Eel / Dragon's Breath Popcorn
Flavors & Textures:
"Guacamole" / Zucchini in Textures / Smoked Oyster w Green Apple / Corn w Huitlacoche / Sea Urchin Ceviche w Hibiscus / Salmon-Pineapple "Ravioli" w Crispy Quinoa / "Tzatziki" / New England Clam Chowder / Parmesan "Egg" w Migas / Breaded Cigala w Sea Salad / "Philly Cheesesteak"
Frozen Yogurt and Honey / Thai Dessert
Sweet Surprises
With so many dishes there was a surprise around every corner. Everything was delicious and there were several amazings. My favorite dishes (not in order, that would be too hard) include: the brioche bun w caviar, the boneless chicken wing, "cornbread", corn w huitlacoche, guac, tzatziki, the parmesan egg w migas, and the philly cheesesteak. Chef Brad was right when he said the desserts would knock my socks off... I still have a hard time deciding which i preferred, but either way they are #1a and 1b on the all time dessert list... The steamed brioche bun with creme fraiche and caviar was the most delicious bite of caviar I have ever had, the super soft brioche a perfect vehicle for it. The chicken wing was super tender, made with thai seasonings, i'll have an order, please. Both corn dishes were super-delicious, if I were to describe them I would likely do them an injustice. The guac was very clever, thin sliced avocado wrapped around a "log" of tomato sorbet, with crumbled fritos and little segments of lime- it tasted great! The parmesan egg with migas was likewise very clever, with a raw egg yolk wrapped in a gelatinous parmesan exterior, with some toasted bread crumbs. The tzatziki was awesome, greek yogurt dropped in liquid nitrogen to develop a hard exterior, some cucumber flowers filled w a drop of balsamic syrup, cucumber, olive oil, and little croutons. The much discussed cheesesteak lived up to the hype- and some. I would take a six pack of these in a second.
All in all, an incredible meal. In fact labeling this as just "a meal" would be marginalizing it- its an experience, and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a special occasion spot.
With no resos and a limited amount of time on Sunday between a morning visit to the museum and early afternoon flight, we decided to check out the brunch at Cafe Atlantico which I had read about here previously. I started with a Salt & Lime Air Margarita, which was awesome! We both went with the chef's tasting option, where they just bring you 14 plates of their choosing, which allowed us to sample a nice chunk of the menu. Everything was pretty good. My favorites that meal were the Pork Belly confit, the hot and cold Foie Gras soup, and the egg 63 with shrooms. Real nice play on the dim sum concept.
What a great trip! Minibar and Komi rank among my best food experiences ever. Both meals were quite expensive, but for what you got, it was worth it. Komi's roasted goat with pita may have been one of the most delicious bites of meat EVER. Minibar had one amazing plate of food after another which just made you ask yourself WHAT?! I have never enjoyed a meal so much, nor have I ever laughed so many times. It was an unparalleled dining experience that I hope to experience again soon.

Niobium oxide caps deliver ultra-low ESR
Post a comment
Myrtle Beach, S.C. Delivering ultra-low equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 55 milliohms, the environmentally-friendly version of AVX's OxiCap Niobium Oxide (NbO) solid electrolyte capacitors are both lead- and halogen-free. They also feature non-burn characteristics so failed devices are guaranteed not to burn up to the rated voltage. Applications include notebook and laptop computers, automotive electronics, mobile phones and PDAs.
According to Bill Millman, technical director for AVX's tantalum product division, NbO capacitors feature electrical characteristics that are the same or better than tantalum devices, providing design engineers with an alternative to tantalum for circuits requiring high capacitance/voltage (C/V) ratings and low ESR characteristics.
NOS Series OxiCaps offer reliability characteristics of 0.2 percent per 1000 hours (500,000 hours MTBF) and a temperature rating up to 125°C. The capacitance value range is 10 microfarads (μF) to 2200 μF with voltage ratings of 1.8 to 6.3 V, with a 10-V version to be released in 2005. All of AVX's new OxiCaps are available in standard EIA case sizes, and have been designed so users can move them easily to lead-free processes.
Typical pricing for the NOS OxiCap series capacitors ranges from $0.30 to $0.40 in quantities of 10,000. Delivery is four to six weeks. Samples are available immediately.

I am ready to give up hst's forever. I did them the easy way on the tutorial by sewing them right sides together around all the edges, then precisely cutting on the diagonal twice and sewed them with a meticulous 1/4th inch seam and STILL they are off, STILL they are wonky. I thought I would just cut them a bit smaller with a template, but it gets stuck on the join of all four centers and moves all around and I can't cut accurately around it.
What in the world am I doing wrong? I have done them over and over and they just don't turn out the right size. Suggestions?

Firmology's How I Power My Business series profiles the technology business owners use to run and grow their business.
Firmology Founder's Note: Go Try It On, Send the Trend, Rent the Runway, Birchbox, Shoptiques, and BaubleBar. What do these startups have in common? They're all fashion startups that were launched by ambitious and aspirational Harvard Business School graduates such as Marissa Evans. After graduating from HBS and moving to NYC, Marissa got the idea for a mobile marketplace that facilitated social fashion discovery after realizing she missed the social interaction of trying on outfits with her friends. Appropriately, the name Go Try It On was born.
Name: Marissa Evans
Title: Founder
Business: Go Try It On, Inc
Location: New York, NY
Smartphone: iPhone 5
Tablet: iPad
Computer: MacBook Air
Other Gadgets: Nike Fuel Band, Roku
Tell us a bit about you and your background:
I launched Go Try It On in March 2010. Prior to this business, I was working at Digitas, a digital brand agency, consulting for large businesses such as Delta Airlines, Samsung, and Sanofi Aventis. I started my first company in 2005—a personalized merchandise company. I attended Harvard Business School and Cornell University.
What's the story behind your business?
I would noticed how my girlfriends would get ready and how it was always a conversation—we'd ask each other for opinions and feedback. After moving to New York City and living alone, I would find myself with no one to ask for feedback when getting ready to go out. I thought it would be cool if there was a marketplace for people to come and go and give and get advice on what to wear and what looks good. It would have to be mobile because the whole idea was founded on access to real-time information.
What apps or services are essential to the operations of your business?
We love Dropbox, Google Docs and Pivotal Tracker. My team loves these as they are essential to sharing information internally. They all help us stay up to date on what the team is working on, share ideas, and share progress. They are all built in a way that are easy to use, and get out of the way to let us do what we need to do.
What apps, services or gadgets do you recommend to other business owners?
Biggest money-saver(s)?
Gmail for Businesses – Low cost and Gmail is a easy to use mail application. There is a ton of storage and you get all the Gmail features like Drive and Chat.
Favorite mobile app(s)?
Dropbox – So useful for saving presentations and being on the go. I love that I can save work from my desktop and know that I can pull it up later on the go.
Favorite personal app(s)?
Audible, of course Go Try It On and our new app #ootd. – I'm a huge fan of book on tape. As I live in NYC I find myself walking or taking the subway and so it can be hard to read on the go, but listening to books is a great way to have the best of both worlds. Our new #ootd app is a totally new way to discover the best fashion on Instagram! We've built a fun game that let's people vote on their favorite look each day. At midnight, a winner is announced!

Jun 07, 2011 Phil Blackwell Uncategorized
Happy as it was claiming the Section III Class B championship, the Marcellus baseball team was after more history when it took on Section IV champion Chenango Valley in Monday's Class B regional final at Johnson City High School, near Binghamton.
In fact, both the Mustangs and Warriors were in search of a first-ever trip to the state final four – but it was CV that would get there, boosted by strong pitching and timely hitting as Marcellus saw its season end in a 6-0 defeat.
Phil Zdanowski, who had beaten Watertown IHC in the Section III Class B-1 final a week earlier, got the start on the mound for Marcellus, opposing CV's Mike Fillers, considered his team's no. 2 starter behind ace Austin Lewis, who was 8-0 this spring.
Early nerves caught up to Zdanowski, as he loaded the bases in the bottom of the first inning before Robert Heller, bringing home the game's first run.
The Mustangs nearly countered, putting runners on first and second with one out in the top of the second. But Kyle Hastings struck out and Brandon Amidon flied out, and Fillers never got a serious challenge again in his four innings of work.
Meanwhile, the Warriors made it 2-0 in the bottom of the third as, with runners on first and third, Mike Fernald just beat out a potential double-play grounder.
It wasn't until the fourth inning, though, that the game got away. And it was Fillers delivering the key blow, a two-run triple as part of a three-run rally that expanded the margin to 5-0.
Jordan Smith, the winning pitcher in the sectional Class B-2 final win over Clinton, relieved Zdanowski for the last two innings and contained the Warriors. But CV brought in Lewis, and he limited the Mustangs to one hit over the last three innings to clinch matters.
Marcellus could look back with pride, though, on a 16-6 campaign where it built momentum through the regular season and made a memorable post-season run, shocking two-time defending state champion Westhill in the B-1 semifinals before claiming the sectional title.

Authorities have filed charges against a 14-year-old boy who allegedly stole a school bus in Roseville Monday.
The boy faces a charge of motor vehicle theft and two counts of criminal property damage -- all felonies.
Police say the teen, who's name is not being released because he's a minor, took off with the bus after the driver left it running outside a gas station. The St. Paul teen allegedly damaged some pumps at the gas station.
Authorities say the boy drove the vehicle to a bus company in Maplewood, but then turned around after he heard on the bus's radio that police were following him.
The teen has been released to his parents and remains under the supervision of juvenile probation officers. He'll make his next court appearance March 6.

The Cheung Chau Bun Festival is an annual springtime rite characterized by parades, performances -- and thousands of hunks of steamed dough.
There's no question that Hong Kong's traditional holiday celebrations are colourful, from the buckets of freshly-cut flowers exploding out of market stalls during Chinese New Year to the gentle glow of the elaborate lanterns that pay homage to the harvest moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
But no ritual is as vibrant -- or as zany -- as the Cheung Chau Bun Festival, an annual springtime rite characterized by parades, performances -- and thousands of hunks of steamed dough.
A 40-minute ferry ride from downtown Hong Kong, the sleepy island of Cheung Chau is a fishing village with narrow lanes, seafood restaurants, beaches and water sports. Once known for being an outpost of piracy within the territory, today it is a destination for city folk looking for a laid-back day trip -- except during the bun festival, when huge crowds gather to witness the spectacle.
Held annually according to the lunar calendar (this year falling on 25 to 29 April), the bun festival's origins date back 100 years to when a plague struck the island, and in response villagers set up an altar to Pak Tai, a Taoist god. They sacrificed offerings to drive away the evil spirits causing the scourge -- and it worked. The bun festival is celebrated every year to thank the deities who saved the island.
Hong Kongers and tourists pack Cheung Chau for the four-day affair, which is chock-full of Cantonese opera shows, lion and unicorn dances and Chinese acrobatics. Bands play; drums beat; flags wave. In the parade that winds through the small island, five- and six-year old children are suspended above floats, dressed in bright silk outfits to resemble mythological figures.
It culminates in a midnight bun-scrambling competition, during which villagers shimmy to the top of three 14-metre-tall pyramids fashioned out of buns -- 9,000 of them, to be exact (and today made of plastic to avoid wasting food). In the past, villagers believed that whoever gathered the most buns would bring their family good health and fortune. These days, competitors carry sacks to hold the buns, wear competitor numbers like runners and are strapped into harnesses as if they were climbing a rock wall instead of scaling a tower of dough. They collect as many buns as they can in three minutes, and the winner is the contestant who racks up the most.
You don't just have fun with buns at the festival--you eat them. Giant bamboo steamer baskets full of buns are everywhere. They come in sesame, lotus or red bean paste varieties, all bearing a red stamp with the Chinese character for peace. At the conclusion of the celebrations, the auspicious buns are doled out to villagers and visitors. Because of the limited supply, there are often queues, so most festival-goers simply buy them throughout the festival -- and even throughout the year -- at many Cheung Chau food stalls.

Turkish police detained hundreds of people on Saturday when public sector workers gathered in Ankara for an unauthorized protest against a proposed law they say will limit their union rights, television stations reported.
NTV and CNN Turk television showed pictures of riot police seizing protesters and bundling them onto buses to take them away from the central Ankara square where they were trying to demonstrate.
The protest was organized by the Public Sector Workers Union (KESK) which is opposed to a proposed new law that it says would limit rights to join unions and take industrial action.
Several thousand people tried to join the demonstration, the reports said, but police stopped them from approaching the main square.
Witnesses said hundreds of police had gathered around Ankara's Kizilay Square from early on Sayurday ahead of the demonstration -- ANKARA (Reuters)

According to the most recent tax data, all individuals filing tax returns in America and earning more than $66,193 per year have a total adjusted gross income of $5.1 trillion. In 2006, when corporate taxable income peaked before the recession, all corporations in the U.S. had total income for tax purposes of $1.6 trillion. That comes to $6.7 trillion available to tax from these individuals and corporations under existing tax laws.
In short, if the government confiscated the entire adjusted gross income of these American taxpayers, plus all of the corporate taxable income in the year before the recession, it wouldn't be nearly enough to fund the over $8 trillion per year in the growth of U.S. liabilities. Some public officials and pundits claim we can dig our way out through tax increases on upper-income earners, or even all taxpayers. In reality, that would amount to bailing out the Pacific Ocean with a teaspoon. Only by addressing these unsustainable spending commitments can the nation's debt and deficit problems be solved.

Artist, critic, and curator Pedro Vélez summed up the year in art for 2012 in the NewCity Eye Exam column of December 18. His list, which encompassed not only Chicago, but exhibitions across the entire midwestern United States, included the CBPA's Johanna Drucker retrospective Druckworks: 40 Years of Books and Projects by Johanna Drucker. The exhibition ran at CBPA from September 6 through December 7, 2012, and presented a comprehensive look at Drucker's books, graphic art, and visual projects.
Johanna Drucker visited the Center both for the installation and opening of the exhibition, and to participate in the accompanying Roundtable discussion Tactics & Technologies: Artists' Books and Means of Production held in early November.
The exhibition's catalog features commentary and essays by over twenty critics, scholars and artists including Jerome McGann, Marjorie Perloff, Emily McVarish, and Craig Dworkin, and is available on Amazon.com.
Druckworks travels next to the Denison University Museum, where it will open on February 8. From there it will continue on to the San Francisco Center for the Book, where it will be on display from May–August, 2013.

VERMILION — Repairs will begin on roads that City Council deemed the most important during its meeting Monday.
Council members picked from a list of the roads that were considered the most deplorable during a professional street evaluation. Council President John Gabriel said repairs will begin as soon as possible, which should please residents who voted on a levy specified for road repairs.
The levy, which passed with 1,279 residents voting for it and 422 voting against it, allowed Council members to choose five roads to begin repairing. Council voted to resurface Ohio Street and Edgewater Drive from Rowland Road to Woodside Avenue, and tear out and replace the concrete curb and asphalt on Sanford Street from Larchmont Drive to South End, as well as work on Yorktown Place and Sunnyside Road from North Ridge Road to Jerusalem Road.
The cost of the projects was projected at $2.04 million, but Gabriel said he hopes costs will be less.
"There's a good chance that these construction costs will come in lower, so that's what I'm hoping, that we'll have some extra money," he said.
City Engineer Lynn Miggins said there could be some cost-savings in grouping the projects together.
During the meeting, Council also discussed applying for a grant to repair Essex Road and Devonshire Road. Gabriel said if the city does not receive the grant, Council could revisit voting to repair those roads at a later date.
The money for the road repairs will come from a $2 million loan, which will be paid back with money collected from the levy. Gabriel said the city is borrowing less than what they will receive in levy funds.
The city is also working to repair $1 million worth of sidewalks in the city, unrelated to the street repairs, Gabriel said.
Most Council members were in agreement Monday, but Councilman Craig Fortner said he disagreed with some of the roads that were chosen for the project. He was the only person to vote against the list.
Councilman Steve Herron commented on Fortner's opinion, saying that there was no way to fairly distribute the funds among wards — an issue Fortner discussed.
"I don't think there's a way to make it equal," Herron said.
Councilwoman Barb Brady asked that members create a five-year plan for residents, but Herron said it was important to target the worst roads first.
"Getting it done is important," he said. "Let's look at a street and get it done. Let's look at the worst roads now and accomplish them now."
Council discussed repairing Brownhelm Station Road but decided to focus on other areas first.
"Absolutely no one lives there," Miggins said during the meeting. "I would put that way down on the list."

This is the best liquid eyeliner in pen form available on the market- no doubt about it. Dark long lasting non irritating (my eyes are quite sensitive)--clean lines very perfect and small tip--
and the whole thing is better than Dolly Wink, a BILLION times superior to Stila (hate that one), Dior, Guerlain, Kat von D, NYX, Essence, Cover Girl, Fusion Cosmetics, Estee Lauder-- the list goes on- i've tried tons this is the best pen form liquid liner period also available in dark brown

This is my HG eyeliner. I'm talking about the pen version, and not the one that you dip into a pot. I wear winged liner almost everyday, and my eyes have a tendancy to smudge everything. This one does not budge. It is a pen liner, with a very tapered brush tip (similar to Physician's Formula and Kat Von D). I can achieve a very thin and sharp line with this product. It is opaque and black, and it does not transfer, smudge or flake. I've been thrown in the pool with this on and my liner stayed on point. I would suggest if you get it wet, not to wipe, but to lightly dab and let it air dry as much as possible. I tightline with this, and it never transfers to my bottom lid. This liner always lasts until I take it off, and I have no complaints about it. It is priced around 10ish $, and it works as well, if not better than more expensive eyeliners such as Stila (the felt tip tends to deteriorate), and Kat Von D (dries out quickly). It lasts a long time too - I think I kept mine for about a year before it needed replacing. The only downside is that it's not readily available in Canada - I've ordered mine from sasa.com, or you can pick them up in Asia. Other comparable products I've tried are Physician's Formula (color is nowhere near as opaque, brush tip gets encrusted in product), Dollywink (I had to go over my line, the formula flakes off, and its not as long wearing). Highly recommended.
Age: 56 & Over
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Warm
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Fine

My favorite eyeliner. Stays on all day. I don't do any crazy big wings. I just do a tightline and it stays very well. And it's easy to work with. I have slightly oily lids because of eye creams and this holds on. I buy from Amazon and I can get it for 10-14 dollars. Sometimes it comes in a week, sometimes it takes a couple of weeks so I make sure I am not out before reordering. Worth the wait. I've tried all of the drugstore WP eyeliners and Dept. store ones too for that matter and they can't hold a candle to this one.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium

Absolutely HG product. I've been using it for more than 5 years and I've never steered away or wanted to try out other liners because I know I'd never find a wonder like this. It's precise, easy to use, doesn't smudge or budge AT ALL, lasts the whole day and comes in the darkest possible shade of black. In fact, I've got 3 spares sitting in my drawer because I'm so scared it will run out of stock. I find that application is easiest when it has been used for a month or so. The formula dries up a little by then and it gives almost like a gel liner sort of look. I've also used the Dolly Wink and K-Palette ones but out of the three, Heroine Make delievers the blackest black and lasts the longest. I really can't find anything to hate on this.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool

I bought this for about $16 CAD online and this is probably my favourite liquid eyeliner! I've used this liner for so long and it's only just run out. I've used the Stila, MAC, Kat Von D, MUFE, Physicians Formula and Dolly Wink liquid liners, but this is the one I have been reaching for daily. I like the sharp brush applicator, how pigmented it is, I get the best control out of this one and I love the packaging of course! I haven't had any issues with application or it bleeding (only slightly). It's definitely not waterproof, but it is water resistant.
Some of the eyeliners I've mentioned are very similar to this, but the reasons why I prefer this eyeliner pen over the Stila, Kat Von D, Physcians Formula and Dolly Wink pens...
Stila ($26 CAD):
- Most expensive one out of all the pen liners
- Don't like the felt tip
- Overtime the applicator became too flimsy
- Initially was very pigmented and then became too watery
- Bled too much
- Was not waterproof to me (even though it claims to be)
Kat Von D ($23 CAD):
- Probably my 2nd favourite
- Also has brush applicator
- Very pigmented
- Waterproof
- Minimal to no bleeding
- Dried out too quickly for me
Physicians Formula (around $14.99 CAD):
- Cheapest one of all of them
- Brush applicator and 2-In-1 (has lash boosting serum in it)
- Water resistant
- Minimal bleeding
- Paraben-free
- Not pigmented enough (over time became less and less pigmented, probably because of the serum in it)
Dolly Wink (around $16.99 CAD):
- Tied with the Kat Von D eyeliner (also highly pigmented)
- Super cute packaging
- Brush applicator and has better control than Kat Von D eyeliner
- No bleeding
- Seems waterproof (I don't remember if it claimed to be)
- Like Kat Von D, ran out/dried out too quickly for me
The only negatives I can think of is: throughout the day, I noticed it faded a tiny bit in the inner corners of my eyes (my eyes do get a bit watery), the brush applicator might not be ideal for beginners and I don't think you can buy this in store. It's on the softer/flexible side, so if you have difficulty creating a cat eye/winged liner, this might not be for you.
If you can't find this in store and you don't want to order online, I would go with the Kat Von D Tattoo liner, since it's the most similar to this.
Tip: To prevent your liquid liner pens from drying out too quickly, store it standing up, with the brush/felt tip facing downwards

Definitely my HG eyeliner. I have used Clio Kill Black, Dolly Wink..both are pretty good except Clio's smudge a little (Clio has a very hard brush which is good for beginners who are not used to drawing eyeliners yet) and Dolly Wink brush is a little too soft and fine for me, plus pigmentation is not as good as KissMe.
KissMe is very pigmented and glides on smoothly. It dries up pretty fast and does NOT smudge AT ALL! It can stay for the entire day and night. The brush is not too soft and the brush tip ensures you get a nice wing. It is waterproof but too much water will still get some of the eyeliner off.
Definitely gonna be in my makeup bag every single time!
Age: 25-29

I really hoped this works due to all the hype but no... the liner fades . its not suitable for my oily lids... no go for me.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
Super black eyeliner - probably one of the blackest I've ever used. I've had it for about 3 months and it hasn't run out yet despite daily use. Nice brush tip for easy control and creating a wing. It WILL flake off if you start tearing up but otherwise it stays put all day. Takes a few seconds to dry so you might want to keep your eyes half closed to prevent creasing. Overall, a pretty solid eyeliner for the price ($13 on Amazon). I will be testing out the waterproof version to see if I would like that one better.

That capability is currently unique in the Pentium 4 chipset world, in part because NVIDIA holds the reins of the SLI bandwagon, andfor perfectly valid technical reasons, mind youthe company hasn't allowed its multi-GPU mode to operate on competing chipsets, even though SLI depends almost entirely on PCI Express in order to work.
Armed with the SLI bludgeon and a quiver bulging with marketing names like ActiveArmor, MediaShield, DASP, and QuickSync, NVIDIA has decided to cross over from the AMD market into the foreign, and much larger, territory of Intel-compatible chipsets. The nForce4 has not been without its growing pains, but it still dominates the enthusiast motherboard scene for the Athlon 64. Is the nForce4 SLI Intel Edition good enough to stand toe to toe with Intel's 925XE? We're about to find out.
What's new and what's not in the Intel Edition
If you read the paragraphs above and your eyes glazed over at the mention of an alien acronym, SLI, then you need to go read this, this, and maybe this, so you can get a feel for the technology. In a small and slightly shriveled nutshell, SLI allows one to drop two GeForce 6-class graphics cards into a single system and use them together to produce accelerated 3D graphics output on a single screen. SLI isn't particularly cheap or even really economical, but it can deliver higher performance, in certain situations, than any single-card solution currently available. That's the source of the nForce4 SLI's unique mojo.
Beyond that, the nForce4 SLI Intel Edition has a host of other features to recommend it, many of them familiar from the AMD-oriented versions of the product. Those of you unfamiliar with the nForce4 basics may want to look over our review of the nForce4 Ultra in order to get up to speed.
NVIDIA has made a number of changes to the nForce4 on the road to Pentium compatibility, so this product might better be named nForce4.5. Let's review what's changed and what hasn't by doing a quick once-over on the nForce4 SLI Intel Edition's features list.
NVIDIA has dubbed the nF4 Intel Edition's north bridge the SPP, for System Platform Processor. That's where the fancy high-bandwidth stuff happens. The nForce4 Intel Edition's south bridge has the fancy nickname of MCP, like the evil program in Tron that tried to kill everybody. In this case, though, MCP stands for Media and Communications Processor, which is appropriate, since the MCP handles audio and most forms of external I/O. The SPP is built using a 130nm fab process, while the humble MCP is fabbed on a 150nm process.
The interconnect between these two chips is a HyperTransport link with a bitrate of 1.6GB/s. This isn't your Athlon 64's HyperTransport, though; in this implementation, the HT link only carries data between the north bridge and south bridge, so it's less important than the HT link between CPU and chipset on the Athlon 64. In fact, since the south bridge (or MCP) has no PCI Express links coming out of it, the chip-to-chip interconnect on the nForce4 Intel Edition should be plenty fast enough at this relatively low bitrate. Intel only uses a 2GB/s interconnect between its north and south bridges in the 925XE chipset, and its south bridge must handle some PCI-E connections.

Alternatively, I was attempting to follow this thread.
In particular, I wanted to disable GPRS to keep it from throttling. Normally this can be done by changing the network mode (see here).
Unfortunately the G900A variant does not have "Network Mode" (AT&T must be blocking it). Any tips on how to get to it or other ways to bypass throttling?

FEARS for the future of Richmondshire's market towns are growing after plans to further expand a new town centre in Catterick Garrison were approved.
Richmondshire District Council planning committee on Tuesday (July 29) moved to permit Lingfield (Catterick) Limited to add an 870 square metre mezzanine level to a Sports Direct store in the development that already has an approved ground space of 929 square metres.
It was also hinted by chief planning officer Peter Featherstone that similar applications could come forward as the building work continues.
Loading article content
But Richmond councillors warned that to allow an ever-increasing development would be tantamount to destroying small or independent shops in nearby towns such as Richmond and Leyburn.
Traders in Richmond have been voicing concerns about the lack of mitigation received ahead of the new competition, and have questioned why money was available for a town manager when Catterick Garrison Tesco was built – but not with the new town centre.
Councillor Stuart Parsons, who attended the meeting as a non-committee member, said: "We are very concerned in Richmond that as Mr Featherstone said there will be at least one other similar application coming up.
"Richmond and Leyburn both suffered from the Tesco effect - it had a strong impact on retail in both towns and now we could be looking at a 30 per cent hit on retail.
"We are supposed to be supporting our market towns, not destroying them."
But Mr Featherstone said the garrison development would pull shoppers back into the district.
He said: "Tesco was a large convenience store, and the impact of that at Catterick Garrison on Richmond was very different to comparison floor space.
"Tesco did result in one of the smaller supermarkets in Richmond closing– that was accepted and by mitigation Tesco provided the funds for a town centre manager.
"When this scheme was initially brought to planning the economy was more buoyant that it is now, and the Ministry of Defence felt it could get a considerable return for the development – and part of that would have provided for a Richmond contribution.
"However it is now being built in very different circumstances. Trade in this area is being lost in huge amounts to Teesside and Darlington and people don't shop for comparison goods in Richmond.
"This is not taking away from Richmond, it's taking away from Teesside; but the applicants are installing a business and tourism information point as part of the scheme."

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- The NFL has reached an agreement in principle to return a franchise to the city of Los Angeles, the nation's largest television market.
The Los Angeles Times reported that NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue had meetings Thursday with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Anaheim, Calif., Mayor Curt Pringle.
"We are one step closer, two or three steps closer, you can characterize it however you want," Tagliabue told the paper. "Whether it's 2009, 2010 or 2000-whatever, our goal ... is to have definitive agreements on all the key subject matters done well in advance of our league meetings."
Tagliabue noted that it is uncertain whether Los Angeles would get an expansion team or a relocated existing franchise.
One team that could be moving is the New Orleans Saints, whose home city was severely damaged by Hurricane Katrina. The Saints have set up temporary quarters in San Antonio, which has been rumored as being a permanent home for the team. Los Angeles has also reportedly been considered to be a final destination for the Saints.

An ordinance adding a section on rates, fees and charges for graveside services lasting more than one hour with an additional $50 fee was tabled by the Winslow City Council Tuesday evening after Marie LaMarr and Ken Evans spoke against it as an unwise policy.
In other action Feb. 26, the council:
* Appointed William Hilsmeier to the Winslow Historic Preservation Commission.
* Awarded a $109,371 contract to Tri-Suns Engineering for First Street water line extension.
* Approved an intergovernmental agreement between the State of Arizona, the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System and the City of Winslow for the benefit of the Little Colorado Medical Center.
Hospital Administrator Jeff Hamblin thanked the council, and noted that the facility and its progress would not be possible without a good relationship with the city manager and the council.
* Adopted an ordinance deleting a section on meter reading testing and correcting a new section on meter reading.
The measure passed with a 5-2 vote, with Councilwoman Marsha Juergens and Councilman Marshall Losey voting in opposition.
* Heard reports from City Manager Jim Ferguson on city activities and from Finance Director Regina Reffner.
* Adopted the consent calendar, giving approval of the check register, minutes of the Feb. 12 council meeting and payment for re-plastering of the outdoor swimming pool.
There was some discussion from members of the audience regarding a check to Smartworksplus, Inc. for retired/rehired employees.
There were three speakers during the call to the public on a variety of issues.
The council met as the Winslow Housing Authority before its regular meeting.

They have 2 lines currently voice and fax. They are getting one line and the the $5.00 fax to email service.And there existing numbers are getting ported across.
I told them to get the 527W for the best possible service(non technical people who just want stuff to work).
They still have not got the voip line working. I went around yesterday and set up there networking at home and talked to support at WXC but still no phone. They say there is an issue with the new (grey face) 527W.
Checked this morning and still no go, am worried that port will happen and they will get hit with expensive mobile bills (line forwarding to mobile if offline)
Anyone had this issue with new hardware?

When do you own up to a mistake, cut your losses and keep errors from compounding?
For Kevin Plank, it was $600,000 down the road toward a new line of women's sports apparel.
Plank, founder and CEO of Under Armour Performance Apparel, saw an opportunity to expand his customer base, which had been overwhelmingly male, to women. So, the company took 18 months and developed eight new women's styles. But sloppy sewing marred the samples. It also became obvious that the company hadn't sought enough advice from its customers and experts.
"When we received the first samples, I knew right away we needed an apparel team … and that no one would ever see this first run of the line," says Plank. "It was my decision to pull the project. We took a $600,000 hit in inventory."
That mistake punished the fledgling company, but it relaunched an entirely reworked women's line in 2003. The line then grew to 11 styles, making up 10 percent of volume for the now-$50 million company. The spring line is adding another 24 styles, and plans for the fall call for another 18 styles.
"It's always important to pull the plug on something that's not working before the public sees it," Plank says. "Money can be replaced, but I never would have forgiven myself if I had let a subpar product line go out the door."
