Rough night for diminutive Rangers winger Mats Zuccarello, who fractured his left wrist when he blocked a shot by Sabres defenseman Jordan Leopold and is out indefinitely.
Rough night for Rangers forward John Mitchell, who inadvertently kicked in the first Sabres goal and committed an ugly turnover in the offensive zone that led to a three-on-one that gave the Sabres a one-goal lead.
All in all, a rough night for the Rangers, who failed to gain any ground in an effort to hold on to first place in the Atlantic Division and the Eastern Conference. A 4-1 loss to the Sabres was a disappointing finish to a 4-3 homestand and could prove costly in the seeding race. The Rangers have 99 points with eight games to play; the Penguins have 98 with nine to go.
With the score tied 1-1 in the second, Mitchell's turnover allowed Drew Stafford to snap the tie at 13:43 with a rocket over Henrik Lundqvist's glove. With the Rangers pressing in the third, Marc Staal got caught pinching and Tyler Ennis scored on a two-on-one at 14:00, firing the puck under Lundqvist's right arm. Derek Stepan's giveaway led to Stafford's second goal just 2:09 later.
"It was pretty obvious odd-man rushes killed us tonight," said Lundqvist, who made 23 saves. "It's tough when they can walk in and pick their corners."
Coach John Tortorella said he didn't think his team wasn't as desperate as Buffalo and that defensive lapses were deadly. "We struggled with our backcheck. That second goal really kills us because [Ryan] Miller was playing so well," he said. "We have to identify our coverage off the [Buffalo] rushes. That effort on that fourth guy coming back is a problem."
The Sabres are 24-0-2 when leading in the third period, and Miller, who made 26 saves, deserves credit as well. After Artem Anisimov was tripped with 17:13 left in the third, Miller stopped Marian Gaborik winding through the middle, then stopped his rebound and two other shots. The Sabres have won three straight and Miller, 12-1-3 in his past 16 games, has really stepped up.
Zuccarello, 2-1-3 in six games and a spark to the power play since being recalled from the AHL, will be missed. Ruslan Fedotenko, a healthy scratch for the last two games, probably will be in uniform against the Maple Leafs Saturday night, but the Rangers could give forward Casey Wellman a look.
The Sabres' first score was a fluke. Travis Turnbull was awarded the first goal of his career after he was crushed by Stu Bickel into the end boards, the puck came in front and Mitchell inadvertently kicked it by Lundqvist at the left post at 3:14 of the second period.
Brian Boyle tied the score at 1 off Anisimov's backhanded pass from behind the net at 9:32. It was Boyle's seventh of the season. Tim Erixon's assist was his first in the NHL. But that was it.
"I don't think we're getting a big offensive play right now," Tortorella said.
Martin Biron (12-5-2, 2.38 GAA) is expected to start Saturday in Toronto, where the Blueshirts will make another bid to top the 100-point mark, last reached in 2005-06. Said Ryan Callahan, "They're going to be a desperate hockey club, too."

FDA. HHS. CMS. CDER. With so many acronyms abounding in the health care world, talking about public health can sometimes feel like wading through alphabet soup! Today, I'll continue to explain the meaning--and the action--behind the acronyms you may hear when it comes to health care.
Let's start with one of the biggest players: the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an agency of thousands of dedicated employees that works to ensure that the foods we eat, the medicines we take and the products we use are safe and effective.
What is the FDA?
The FDA is one of the many federal agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services, the cabinet-level department that administers essential services to promote better public health in the United States. With headquarters in White Oak, MD and hundreds of additional field offices and laboratories throughout the United States, the FDA monitors the safety, efficacy and security of publicly available products. The FDA employs more than 14,000 people, from scientists who study the safety of new medicines or cosmetics to educators who raise awareness about important health issues.
What does the FDA do?
Since President Theodore Roosevelt signed the Pure Food and Drug Act in 1906, the FDA and its forerunners have been tasked with ensuring public health through the regulation of food, medicine, cosmetics, tobacco, medical devices and a host of other items. Before we can safely eat, digest, or come into contact with a product, the FDA makes sure that it checks out.
The FDA also supports the discovery and innovation that makes medicines safer and more accessible. It achieves this by thoroughly and efficiently reviewing the efficacy of potential new medicines and by making its findings available for consumers and patients.
Why does the FDA Matter?
The FDA has an extremely wide and incredibly important scope of responsibility. Such a broad set of duties demands that it consist of many individual departments, each dedicated to a different area of review and approval like veterinary products, medical devices, food safety, and others. The subdivision for which the FDA is arguably most well known is CDER, the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, which evaluates new medicines. From over-the-counter painkillers to new therapies to treat cancer, CDER reviews each product to ensure patients can use it safely. After years, sometimes decades, of research and development, CDER and the FDA serve as the final step before a product reaches patients.
While much of its work goes unmentioned and occurs behind the scenes, the FDA's decisions impact every one of us on a daily basis, whether we realize it or not. It is a key piece in the puzzle to not only developing and accessing new medicines, but to promoting a healthy standard of living for all Americans.

2.2.1 The State-Space Model of a Drum Boiler
Make sure the application is loaded.
Load the collection of test examples.
This state-space model of a drum boiler has a maximum steam flow of about 350 t/h and a drum pressure of 140 bar around an operating point of 90% full load (see G. Bengtsson and S. Lindahl, (1974)).
The states of the system represent, respectively, the drum pressure (bar), the drum liquid level (m), the drum liquid temperature (degrees Celsius), the riser wall temperature (degrees Celsius), and the steam quality (percent). The inputs are the heat flow to the risers (kJ/s) and the feedwater flow (kg/s). The measured quantities (output of the system) are the drum pressure (bar) and the drum liquid level (m).

AN: Well here it is, my first Kiba and Hinata story. It's a vampfic so I hope you guys will like it. This story is really an AU/AR with a mixature of modern/medieval/Naruto world kind of story. If you don't know what I mean by that, hopefully after you read it you'll understand what I mean.
[Full Summary : Enemy must help enemy as Kiba is helping to escort an important person known as the Daywalker to a compound in Inoha. He must help protect the Daywalker from others who want what she possess and other obstacles along the way while reaching their designation.
I think I'm a good writer, not a great one but I'm okay. I do have grammar mistake issues but that could easily be fix if someone care to be a beta for me. You could look under my profile to see what type of stories I write and my sister. If you notice, my grammar has gotten a little better from when I started but it still needs some touch ups.
Anywho, here is the story.
The night was calm…at peace after a morning and afternoon of gray clouds that brought light rain and warm wind.
Now clear, the air was humid and thick and evidences of the day activity was seen by the moon light illuminating over cluster of green woodlands below. The atmosphere in-between the towering trees was rich with the smell of moss and wet soil, the croaks and chirps of frogs and crickets filled the night with sound, and puddles covered the ground floor. Rain droplets clung to waxy surface of many leaves only to slide down the very tip of the leaves and freefall into the small muddy water on the ground, causing the puddle to form ripples after ripples.
Yes, it was a calm, peaceful night, but with a gentle breeze it was about to change.
The trees swayed back and forth with the breeze, showering the ground with more droplets from the leaves. And as soon as the wind began, it stopped, taking the natural sound of the forest with it. Everything was cased in silence just when the last hoot of an owl brought upon the stillness. Clouds slowly crept their way over the moon, blocking out most of the pale blue glow over the land and making the environment darker and cooler. Everything was made to look and feel dead, nothing living or moving, made to feel as if nothing existed. Until, like the breeze, a sound broke the silent and brought with it another change.
The sound of a branch being broken in two echoed through the forest. Followed by another one and another until moving bushes added to the snapping sticks. With the breaking of the silent also came a light of orange and yellow flames hovering over the wet ground, flickering as it moved swiftly through the darken forest. The visible light gave away the young man carrying a torch in his hand as he ran a small path on the saggy ground. He jumped over several fallen moss covered logs on the grassy floor and ducked under vines and tree branches, straying away from the path he was on to cut through another one. Sweat covering his body and heavy breathing were signs of how long he'd forced his body to continue his straining sprints, and he could only anticipate more exertion as he push further.
Up ahead he could see his designation, where the tree lines end and open ground of grass lies. He could easily see the two lights from afar between the trees. Knowing he was not far from reaching the lights, he picked up speed.
Finally reaching the forest edge he could see now the compound in the middle of the clearing. Tall wooden pillar surrounded the compound with sharp cone shape tips. The gate stood evenly with the pillars with two lit torch by it side and two guards. Their gray garments with silver armor on this arms reflected the glowing light of the fire just as his reflected his torch. Not wanting to waste anymore time, he ran the rest of the way to the barricade structure.
The guards immediately saw the young man coming and opened the gates, letting the young man pass without stopping. He found him self in a rectangle shape tunnel made of clay and woods before making it fully into the inside of the compound. Inside, a building, a mansion of three stories high stood before him. On the side of the mansion were smaller buildings halfway high as the mansion, each with dim light shining through them. Passing more guards on the way, he made his way inside the mansion. Busting his way through the front door and running in the house in familiar hallways until he came upon a closed door with flickering light coming from under it and dark shadows. Without a moment hesitation he hanged his torch up in a holder and opened the door.
Inside were three middle age men, standing around a table in the middle of the room with a fireplace lit behind them. They too wore the traditional attire like the guards outside and the young man before them, except for extra metal on their torsos and white capes hanging behind them. Their pale eyes stared the interrupter down with raise eyebrows waiting for the young man to speak. He was far from out of breath to speak and stood bent with his hands on his knees.
"Neji," the one in the middle of the three men spoke. "What is the meaning of this?"
With long exhale breath, Neji stood up straighter and with his very own pale eye, looked the one in the middle in the eyes.
"Lord Hiashi…they are coming," was Neji's only reply and with no further explanation the two other guys standing by Hiashi ran pass Neji and outside, leaving Neji still looking at Hiashi, who eyes faltered to the floor.
"Lord Hiashi, what is it that you want me to do?"
Hiashi eyes looked back up to the young man and then down at the floor again.
"How long do we have before they arrive," Hiashi asked.
"An hour maybe"
There was a pause set between them.
"Lord Hiashi…" Neji questioned.
"I want you to assemble a squad of eight of our best men and meet me outside. Make it quick."
"Yes sir," Neji nodded before leaving the room.
Hiashi took a calming breath before exiting the room as well.
Hanabi ran down an empty corridor passing every door she came across. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail and her cape flapped wildly behind her as she continued to run. She slowed down when she came to a door at the end of the hall and opened it.
"Hinata," she yelled. "Hinata, we have to hurry."
"I'm coming," Hinata answered back, coming from behind a door. Her hair too was pulled back in a ponytail but it was braided and her cape folded over her, covering her body completely.
She was putting last bit of items in her bag sat at the edge of her bed before closing it. Hanabi waited outside of the door, pacing back and forth in front of it. When she was done, she grabbed her bag and out the door, grabbing her sister's hand and both ran down the hall together.
Down the last flight of stairs on the last floor, Hanabi grabbed her bag next to the entrance door and out the door. The two young women were met with movement everywhere. Armed guards dashed pass them to get to their assign position around the compound, things thrown in front of them and behind them, and guards marching in a line to form another barricade at every gate. The two girls made sure to step out of their way as they made their way over to where their father stood surrounded by eight guys and Neji by one of the smaller building by the mansion. He was talking to the men over the commotion around them, making sure they understand their assignment.
"…This is important," he finished off just as his daughters reached him. "Wait by the secret tunnel until they are ready, Neji stay here for a moment."
Neji nodded his head and waited while the eight men left as ordered. Hiashi turned towards his two daughters and held out his arms to pull them into an embrace.
"I'll meet you at our other compound in Inoha," Hiashi said releasing them from the hug.
"Why can't you come with us," Hanabi asked.
"I must stay here and fight the Stalkers from following you," he said looking to Hinata. "…especially from you, Hinata."
"But father you're just as important to them, as me. They will kill you if they catch you," Hinata stuttered.
"I must buy you some time to get away, now please, you must go. We don't have that much time."
Hanabi and Hinata both grabbed Hiashi and pulled him into another hug. Letting go, they ran off to meet up with the eight men by the tunnel. Neji stood before Hiashi after Hiashi's daughters left. He watched as Hiashi pulled out two scrolls from his holster behind him and hand it to the young man in front of him.
"I trust you to be in charge of those men out there and help protect my daughters."
"I will sir," Neji said, taking the two scrolls from Hiashi.
"The other compound is very far from here and being that you haven't been to Inoha before, I want you to make a stop in Konoha for me. There's a friend of mine who will help you get to Inoha. He is a good tracker and navigator of the lands and will be a good addition in helping protect Hinata." Hiashi pulled out another scroll and handed it over to Neji. "The first two scrolls I want you to give to my friend. This scroll I am giving to you now is for you. Read it when you are as far away from here as possible. In it, it will tell you who the person you are looking for and a message to our people at the other compound." Neji stuffed the three scrolls in his pouch behind him and bowed to Hiashi. "Now go"
With a nod, Neji left. Hiashi watched as Neji disappeared behind the corner of the smaller building and turned to face the front where the rest of his men were in place around the compound, prepared for the battle ahead.
It was an underground tunnel they traveled in from the compound to the outside beyond the clearing and green woodlands. Neji lead the way and with the eight men, four traveled behind him, then Hinata and Hanabi, and behind them the rest of the squad. They jogged their way down it without a moment rest after ten minutes into dark tunnel. They used their Byakugan to see through the dark, not wanting to risk using a torch to be safe.
Thirty minutes into the tunnel and they could already see an opening at the other end. Being the first to make it out, Neji stepped to the side of the opening of the tunnel to see everyone departure from it and to make sure they wasn't being followed. Once everyone was safely out, he followed behind them through a stream up ahead until they reached dry land. Passing a series of trees with Neji still behind the group, he stopped dead in his track.
"Stop," Neji whispered.
Everyone in the group stopped and looked back at their leader. He was looking around before he turned and looked behind the way they came from.
"What is it," one of the men asked.
"Silence," Neji answered before jumping up to one of the nearby trees and standing at one of the highest branches.
The others were confused at first but realizing what he meant, they all jumped up a branch of a tree and looked in the direction of the compound. Hinata and Hanabi stood on a branch together and watched also. Their Byakugan were activated to see the compound up closer from where they stood, watching the tree line in front of the compound for the said intruders.
Minutes passed before there was any indication of movement in the trees. Where one started another soon came afterwards until the whole tree line moved in sync. And then stepping out was a man clad in black and caped that flowed behind him. Others walked out as well all dressed in the same attire behind the man, taking the lead, making their way forward. The whole scene looked to seem as if a massive dark cloud roaming it way to the compound.
"They don't have a chance," one of the men of the squad said. "It's too many of them."
Neji looked over to where Hinata and Hanabi stood and read the frightening and worried look on their faces. Turning back in front of him, he watched the scene unfold. The ones in black, the Stalkers reached within ten feet of the wooden walls before they jumped the tall pillars in one easy leap. Spears were being thrown at them from the inside as they jump over the edge and into the inside. It looked like black water spilling over inside.
With a sigh, Neji jumped from the branch to the ground below and waited for the others to join him. Back in their formation, with Neji leading and Hinata and Hanabi in the middle of the eight man squad, they moved out.
"Your father would give his own life to make sure you two were safe," Neji said, hearing the sobbing of the two young women behind him. "…as I would mine. We should honor his sacrifice for you and the others along with him."
The others were quite but Hinata and Hanabi sobbing seemed to simmer down a little. They continued their walk further away from the compound, moving quietly through the trees and silent night. Neji pulled out the scroll address to him from Hiashi and begin to read it to him self while also keeping an eye out what's in front of him. Konoha is a two day journey from how far they were from it, if they continue through the night. Neji could only hope that Hiashi and the others bought them enough time to reach Konoha.
Multiple of bodies lay dead on the ground everywhere. Most of the bodies were of the gray and silver armored men of the compound and a few of the black caped trespassers. The battle was still going on within the compound's walls but slowly coming to an end as the battle was a sweet victory for the black caped men, known as the Stalkers.
One of the Stalkers, wearing an armored chest plate and some on his arms walked through the compound, stepping over bodies as he headed for the mansion. His men saluted him as he walked by and then continued their search for any survivors. Another of his men, dressed in the same attire saluted his leader as he walked passed him and followed him inside behind him.
"Sir, we overran the compound with ease. They hardly put up a fight," the shorter man laughed while wiping blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Did you find her," his leader asked turning to look over his shoulder at the man.
The low rank Stalker lowered his head and answered the question.
"No sir, we figured she must have gotten away before the attack. I sent men out to see if they could get a trail or scent outside the compound with the dogs, they haven't reported back yet. But we do have her father."
The leader turned and faced his officer with a smile.
"He's in the main office room just ahead."
Turning back in front of them, he followed his officer to the said room where three of his men await with Hiashi held captive. Hiashi was striped of his armors and only was dressed in an undershirt and pants. Blood stain his shirt from his beaten wounds on his face and minor cuts on his arms. He was on his knees with two of the black clothed men holding his arms out eagle spread before their leader.
"Lord Hiashi of the White Protectors…it's been a while since the last time I saw you."
"Same here… brother," Hiashi answered, looking up from his one good eye at his twin brother.
Hizashi smiled at his wounded brother and then nod at his two soldiers to let him go. Hiashi felled to his hands and knees to keep his balance and once again looked up at Hizashi.
"I see you brought your second hand Roku with you," Hiashi smiled back.
"You know I can't go anywhere without my most trusted officer," Hizashi said, pulling the said shorter man close to him. "I've been meaning to ask you, where yours?"
"Oh I think I saw them outside dead with the rest of his men, sir," Roku answered.
"Right, but I simply remembered there were three loyal officers of your, brother. Two are dead but where is the third." Hizashi placed his finger at his chin in an attempt to act like he was thinking. "Neji was it? Now where could he be?"
"You'll never find them."
"Then I'll just keep on looking until I do," Hizashi snared. "Why do you insist on protecting her? She's excess baggage to you; only with her death will she be something worthy of our people, our kind."
"She's your niece."
"She is the key to an ultimate power that would benefit us, our people" Hizashi frowned. "Why is it so hard for you to understand that?"
"You say it is for our people but what you are really saying is it is only for you. I can't allow you to have her."
"Why do you keep protecting things that are useless? She is useless, human, they are useless. They are nothing more then food to us and you want to side with them. They are killing our people, Hiashi, don't you understand that?"
"They are only killing our people because of your kind, Hizashi. They just want to be safe."
"Right, my kind. My kind that just slaughtered your people less than ten minutes ago and you still want to protect these people? Hiashi, your cause is a lost one."
Hiashi stood on his knees and stared his brother with determination.
"Don't be stubborn, brother, just tell me where she is?"
Hiashi said nothing.
"Say nothing at all I will get the answer out of you."
"Over my dead body," Hiashi retort.
"That could be arranged."
With quick movement, Hizashi grabbed Hiashi by the neck and slammed him into a wall behind him. Drawing his head back, his canines protruding longer, he bit down on his brother's neck and begin to feed from his blood. Hiashi let out a dry screamed as Hizashi eyelids begin to flutter with his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Flashes of different people, places, and scenes flickered through his head and he frowned from the rush of them. He could see Neji with Hinata and Hanabi, a man with black hair and upside down triangles on his cheeks, a scroll, Konoha, Inoha, a necklace, and blood. Everything was surging through his head over and over and he quickly released Hiashi from his hold and stumbled backwards holding his head. Hiashi felled to the floor with his eyelids flicker and shivering. Roku caught his leader before he could fall to the floor too and stabled him on his own feet. The images in his head slowed down along with his labored breathing and he pulled away from Roku grip and opened his eyes. He looked down at his brother lying sideways on the floor and squatted next to him. Hiashi opened his eyes half way to meet the stare of his brother.
"You're sending them to Konoha to get help from a human. A desperate move, Hiashi," Hizashi said wiping his mouth clean of any stray blood. "Something I would expect from an animal eater. Their blood clouds your mind, make you make stupid decision."
He stood again but still felt dizzy from the fading images in his head and closed his eyes to steady him self again. Opening them once more, the images were gone, he faced Roku and the three other soldiers.
"They are heading to Konoha. I want you to assemble a team and go after them. If you leave now you'll catch up with them."
"Yes sir," Roku saluted and was about to leave when Hizashi stopped them.
"Oh and send two more men in here to pick up this trash," he said looking at Hiashi. "We're taking him with us."
With a nod, Roku and the three men left. Hizashi turned back to his brother and once again he caught his brother's half lidded gaze.
"I'm not going to kill you yet, brother. I want you to be there when your precious daughter dies, and then I'll finish you off."
Two of his men came in and walked pass Hizashi to pick up his brother.
"Put him in the wagon with the rest of his people," Hizashi ordered.
"Yes sir," the soldiers said in unison.
"Oh and Hiashi," the soldiers turned Hiashi around to face their leader. "The human, this Inuzuka guy you're sending your daughter to, is dead."
Hiashi looked surprised.
"Yeah, I killed him years ago, sort of. It seemed he was just as stubborn as you."
Hizashi walked up slowly to his brother until they were face to face.
"There won't be anyone there to help them," he smiled. "Take him away."
Once his men left with Hiashi, Hizashi turned to look at the room with the fireplace. He smiled as he walked over to the table where a map lay out on it. Looking around some more, he spotted what he was looking for and grabbed the torch from its hook on the wall and carried it to the table.
"You can keep running Hinata but there is no one else who can help you now. You will be mine."
With one last look at the map, he threw the torch on the table and watched the map burn until the fire spread onto the table. Not wanting to stick around any longer, he left just as the table broke causing the torch to roll on the floor, leaving a trail of fire behind. The room was soon engulfing in flames.
Walking out of the mansion, Hizashi saw his men walking out the door of the gate with their prisoners in a caged wagon chained. They had already started a fire to the wooden barricade and smaller building before leaving, leaving everything on fire and dead behind them. They headed back to their own compound and hopefully waited for their prize within two days.
Just two days….

Yield Results and Reporting
Variety choice should never be based solely on yield performance, as it is only one factor that affects net return. The genetic yield potential of a variety is often masked by numerous factors, some of which can be controlled through variety choice and others through astute agronomic management. Producers are encouraged to consider other characteristics such as maturity, plant height, lodging and disease/pest resistance when deciding which varieties to grow. Long-term satisfaction with a variety is often related to non-yield characteristics.
Exercise caution when making yield comparisons among varieties. Variety yield should only be directly compared to the standard reference check. Actual head-to-head yield comparisons between other varieties may not have occurred. Small plot agronomic trials are expensive to grow and new varieties are registered every year. It is simply impractical to grow all varieties at the same time. Following several years of data collection, the yield performance for a particular variety stabilizes relative to the check and further testing is no longer required. It is for these reasons that the check varieties are grown every year (e.g. AC Barrie for CWRS wheat, AC Metcalfe for barley) and that changes to these checks are infrequent. The "Overall Station Years of Testing" column provides an indication of the unbalanced nature of the dataset.
At least six station-years of yield data collected over two years are required prior to reporting the figures in this publication. For new varieties, Overall Yield is often the first indication of yield potential relative to the check. As additional data become available, yield performance is also expressed on the basis of environmental productivity (Yield Test Categories of Low, Medium, High and Very High). Yield rankings among varieties can change substantially due to growing conditions. To reflect these differences, results from a test site that produced high yield in a particular year are placed into the database for 'high' yielding environments. The same site may contribute to the 'low' yield category in a drought year, when yields are low. Consistent performance over all Yield Test Categories indicates that a variety has environmental responses similar to the check and may have good yield stability over a wide range of environments. Scientific studies conducted on variety performance in Western Canada have shown that Yield Test Category analysis provides a more reliable indication of yield performance than results organized by geographic region.
The yield comparison tables have several features:
- Overall actual yield of the check (bushels/acre) based on all data available to the testing program is provided along with the number of station years of testing.
- The range in yield for each Yield Test Category is defined.
- Actual yield of the check in each Yield Test Category is reported.
- For varieties with sufficient data, the Overall Yield and performance in each Yield Test Category is expressed relative to the check.
- Significant statistical differences relative to the check are indicated.
Yields that are statistically higher (+) or lower (-) than the check are indicated to aid in the selection process. No symbol after the yield figure indicates that there is no statistical difference from the check. Pay particular attention to data on new varieties that have not been fully tested. If a large difference from the check is reported but is not significant, it could mean that yields have varied widely, and/or there are not enough data to prove a statistical difference. With additional years of testing, the reported yield differences will become more accurate.
To make effective use of the yield comparison tables, producers should set a realistic yield target for the season and determine where it fits within the Low, Medium, High and Very High Yield Test Categories. This approach facilitates matching of variety choice to expected productivity levels and is similar to that used when making decisions on other levels of inputs. Please note that the actual yield levels indicated are from small plot trials, which may be 15 to 20 per cent higher than yields expected under commercial production.
Maturity Ratings
As is the case for yield, growing conditions have a tremendous influence on the date of maturity. For example, a variety of CWRS wheat may mature in 98 days in Lethbridge, but take 103 days in Edmonton. Likewise, a two-day difference in maturity between varieties in southern Alberta may amount to a five-day difference in a more northerly location. To take this into account, maturity is expressed using a five category scale: Very Early, Early, Medium, Late and Very Late. To aid producers with this relative scale, the average number of days to maturity for the check is reported. Note that this scale is different for each crop type. For example, an early barley variety will mature much earlier than an early flax variety.
Seed Size and Plant Populations
Seed size within a crop kind will vary from variety to variety, requiring adjustment of seeding volumes to achieve desired plant populations. Some of the tables provide an average 1000 kernel weight (TKW) which can be used as a guide for variety differences. The best approach is to determine the 1000 kernel weight of the seed to be planted, germination rate, emergence mortality, and in the case of fall seeded crops, an estimate of winterkill. For more information and user-friendly seeding rate calculators that take into account these and other considerations, please see www.agric.gov.ab.ca/app21/ldcalc.
Plant Breeders' Rights
Plant Breeders' Rights (PBR) are a form of intellectual property rights by which plant breeders can protect new varieties in the same way an inventor protects a new invention with a patent. In 2015, Canada amended the PBR Act to bring it into conformity with UPOV 91. Varieties protected under the previous legislation (UPOV 78) are indicated with the logo, whereas those protected under the new legislation that are shown with a new logo. The use of the ▲ logo indicates that PBR is pending. For more information on Plant Breeders' Rights, please see www.pbrfacts.ca or the Canadian Food Inspection Agency website at www.inspection.gc.ca.
The Alberta Regional Variety Advisory Committee (ARVAC) does not take any responsibility for accuracy or validity of the canola performance data.
Diseases, Seed Treatment and Seed Testing
- Disease ratings are compiled from various data sources in Alberta and other prairie provinces.
- Treat rye and flax seed to control seedling blight, cereal seed for smuts and fusarium, canola seed to control flea beetle, seedling blight and the seed borne phase of virulent blackleg.
- Wheat with Moderately Susceptible (MS) or Susceptible (S) ratings for common bunt should be treated with a systemic fungicide as low levels of infection will restrict marketability.
- Refer to labels for maximum storage periods of treated seed.
- Treated seed must not be fed to livestock, poultry or wildlife, and cannot be sold for feed.
- Leaf spot ratings in the wheat tables are a combination of resistance to tan spot and septoria leaf disease complex.
- Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum and other species, is an increasing problem in Alberta. The relative ranking of crops from most susceptible to least susceptible is durum wheat, common wheat, triticale, barley and oat. Corn is a host of graminearum and can serve as a source of infection when residue is left on the ground. FHB infection is highly influenced by the environment and heading date. A resistant (R) tolerance rating for FHB does not equate to immunity. Under severe epidemics, all varieties will sustain damage. All seed should be tested for the presence of FHB and treated with an appropriate seed treatment if required. Producers are advised to choose varieties with the best FHB tolerance whenever possible and always use best management practices to slow the spread of this disease.
- Seed used in the Alberta Regional Variety Testing program comes with a "fusarium-free" certificate and trials are inspected for FHB during the growing season.
Laboratories participating in the FHB testing program:
- 20/20 Seed Labs Ltd., Nisku, AB: 1-877-420-2099

Gwen Stefani's Sons Not Getting Along With Blake Shelton?
Are Gwen Stefani's sons not getting along with Blake Shelton? That's what the tabloids want readers to believe. Gossip Cop, however, knows the truth.
In its current issue, Star is running a piece headlined, "Gwen's Boys Snub Shelton." It's said, "There's no doubt Gwen Stefani is a big fan of boyfriend Blake Shelton, but her two eldest boys, Kingston, 10, and Zuma, 8, are struggling to bond with the country crooner."
"Blake gets along great with [youngest son] Apollo, but he can be a bit awkward around Kingston and Zuma," a so-called "pal" tells the tabloid. Gossip Cop isn't sure why any real friend would be talking about this with the magazine, which goes on to assert that Shelton "looked uncomfortable" when he recently went to Disneyland with Stefani and the boys.
Contends the outlet, "There's just no camouflaging how much Kingston and Zuma miss their father, British rocker Gavin Rossdale. Of course, Shelton has nothing to do with how often the kids do or don't see their dad. Nevertheless, the supposed "pal" says, "Blake tries so hard, but this is all new to him — and he's got some big shoes to fill."
The alleged tipster further claims, "All [the boys] know is that they started seeing a lot less of their dad ever since Blake showed up on the scene. They blame him for the upheaval in their lives." It's worth noting that Star sister publication OK! is running almost the exact same quote, and essentially the same story, this week, with an article claiming Shelton has been clashing with Stefani's sons.
Neither version, however, is accurate. And it's awfully suspicious that both publications are making these claims after the couple has been together for more than year. Surely if Stefani's sons weren't a fan of Shelton, the relationship wouldn't have lasted this long. But regardless of whether the two continue to go the distance, Gossip Cop is told there is simply no issue between Shelton and the boys.

hehehe...you are too funny Devri...actually look close....the alphabet is missing a lower case letter....but which one? I still cannot figure out if the designer meant to leave it out or if it was a booboo :)ReplyDelete
Grandma Teakettle's theory is that she did it so that the letters would fit in a nice 3 row patter.
Another stitcher in the SAL said that often, old colonial samplers left out the "j" and "v" since they were not in the original alphabet.
very interesting

Romantic, gorgeous, perfect getaway. Beautifully set outside of the city but close enough to the city to spend the whole day. From the moment we arrived at Mulino di Firenze we were greeted by a great staff (who were all English-speaking) who were willing and able to accomodate every request. We were led through a courtyard to our room. We were pleasantly surprised by the high ceilings and the size of the room. The bathroom felt luxurious with with marble floors and we immediately felt incredible comfortable in our room and throughout the whole hotel. It overlooks the Arno River and every inch of the hotel is gorgeous. We reserved the shuttle into the city every day which was convenient since by 630, we were exhausted from walking around and were ready to go back to the hotel. The shuttle left the hotel at 9 and 10 every morning and then departed the National Library at 530 and 630 (you reserve the time slots the night before). After spending the day in the city, we would come back to the hotel and spend some time in the private sauna and turkish bath (you also reserve this area for an hour so that you and your partner can have the spa to yourselves). We would then eat dinner at the hotel every night since the food was so delicious! The staff was wonderful and remembered us night after night. After dinner, we typically shared more wine and spent time outside basking in the amazing atmosphere this hotel exudes. One night we also scheduled massages which were the best massages we ever received (thanks Sabrina!). The staff was more than willing to provide wine glasses and wine wherever we were, whether it be in our room or outside overlooking the river. Every accomodation we were looking for was met by this hotel and the staff of the hotel. We would 100% stay at this hotel again - it was perfect for romance and for sightseeing.
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Booking.com, Orbitz, Expedia, Hotels.com, Priceline, Travelocity, TripOnline SA, getaroom.com, Cancelon, Hotwire and Evoline ltd so you can book your Hotel Mulino di Firenze reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Playa Del Carmen, Quintana Roo Mexico (PressExposure) October 06, 2011 -- A recently announced paving project will cover 50,000 m2 of road space; while the work is planned for more local working-class oriented communities back from the beach, it boosts investment potential for the area, as well reflecting the general growth and improvement which makes Playa del Carmen real estate attractive.
The city's mayor said that in the work will require an investment of about 10 million pesos (approx. $800,000 USD) and will directly benefit the 70,000 inhabitants of the communities. The governor of the state of Quintana Roo (which includes Cancun and Playa del Carmen) announced a total investment of 243 million pesos (about $19 million USD) in various projects for communities in Playa del Carmen for this year.
During the last week of September 2011, accompanied by the mayor, the governor waved witnessed the first step of the work at the corner of street 85 and 7 of the neighborhood called "Ejido," (about a 10 minute drive back from the beach) where the goal is to invest five million pesos in 25 thousand square meters of roads with hot asphalt four-inch hydraulic base 15 inches thick.
The complete package includes the improvement of the urban image, with pavement and sidewalks in several neighborhoods, pavement of streets, construction of a multipurpose gym, improving parks, rehabilitation and equipping of schools, scholarships, infrastructure, potable water and sewerage, sanitation and sewage treatment works, 17 of which are in process.
Later, he moved to Colonia Bellavista, where he gave the green light for the paving of 25 thousand square meters with investment of five million pesos and the same features in infastructure work.
While both communities are outside of the usual area of interest for American and Canadian buyers, it does point to some interesting progress in the city. First of all, these communities back from the beach have traditionally been very low priced, and expat buyers could fairly consider buying a lot or fixer upper home as a small-scale investment; as Playa del Carmen grows, the same area will take on a much more central role, being located directly next to the city's new civic and shopping centers. The paving and introduction new infrastructure and lifestyle amenities will make life in these areas more attractive and suggests the possibility of increasing values.
In general as well, the infrastructure projects reflect the speed of the growth of Playa del Carmen, which, 10 years ago, had only a handful of paved roads; many of the areas which were then fringe properties are now prime downtown real estate.

It's finally happened – the sport of Mixed Martial Arts is now legal in the state of New York.
In previous years the bill to legalize the sport has always come unstuck when it reached the New York State Assembly, but this year it was at last put to the floor and passed by an overwhelming majority of 113-25.
As such, the near 20-year ban on MMA in New York has been lifted, and became the 50th state to legalize the sport in the United States.
"This has been a long time coming and on behalf of our New York UFC athletes and fans, I want to offer heartfelt thanks to Speaker Heastie, Majority Leader Morelle and all the Members of the Assembly – Democrats and Republicans – who voted for this bill," UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta said in a statement.
"Joe Morelle has worked tirelessly to educate his colleagues and build support for legalizing professional MMA and regulating both professional and amateur MMA. He has worked closely with Senator Joe Griffo, who has shepherded this effort in the Senate, where the bill has passed with strong bipartisan support for the last seven years, and MMA fans owe both a huge debt of gratitude."
There is still some red tape to go though, with Gov. Andrew Cuomo being required to put his signature to the bill, and after that The New York State Athletic Commission will have 120 days to draft guidelines and regulations as the sanctioning body for the state.
After that it's all systems go, and the UFC have already committed to doing at least four events in New York for the first three years that the sport is legal in the state.
That's expected to include a huge event at Madison Square Garden before the end of this year to celebrate this long anticipated moment in the sport's history.
Though the passing off the bill is largely down to the UFC's years of persistence, they are not the only organization to benefit from the ruling, and Bellator were also among those celebrating the news.
"The New York Assembly's vote to legalize MMA is a watershed moment for this incredible sport," Bellator CEO Scott coker stated. "As someone who has been promoting combat sports for more than 30 years, this is a very exciting time for mixed martial arts," said Coker. "We've already been in contact with the great people at the Barclays Center and several other incredible venues, and we can't wait bring our world-class athletes and action-packed shows to an arena in the Empire State soon."

Anti-Corruption Committee Supports Tackling Misuse of Public Funds for Campaigning ({{commentsTotal}})
The Anti-Corruption Select Committee of the Estonian Parliament unequivocally endorsed further legal steps to prevent the corrupt use of public funds, mostly regarding political advertising.
The committee endorsed two amendments, the first of which was to the Political Parties Act and Advertising Act, which passed the first reading in Parliament in mid-May, uudised.err.ee reported today.
The head of the committee, Ken-Marti Vaher, called on passing the amendments before the 2015 parliamentary elections. Initiated by the Reform Party's Valdo Randpere, it aims to prevent the misuse of public funds for political advertising.
The second amendment was submitted by the IRL in mid-May and concerns the Parliamentary Elections Act, also aiming to curb the use of public funds for campaigning in parliamentary and local elections.

Party in Greenville, SC Feb 28th to Benefit America's Mighty Warriors
February 1st, 2014
Join us for a fundraiser in Greenville, SC on Feb 28th, 2014. Our friend Brandon a Outman Cigar and Martini Bar is hosting a fabulous party to benefit America's Mighty Warriors. Tickets are limited to the first 100 people. All proceeds go to AMW's new program, Got HBOT?.
Got HBOT? helps services members with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) get access to a full service program for treatment, centered on the evidence-based protocol developed that has been helping to heal TBI for years. HBOT stands for Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment. It consists of breathing 100% oxygen in a dive chamber at prescribed depths for a prescribed amount of time. Breathing oxygen at depth allows more oxygen to reach more more cells, increase blood flow and help injuries heal, including brain injuries.
We have a huge problem with TBI because many of our troops don't even know that they have a TBI. When they do know, treatment generally consists of fragmented drug therapy. The actual brain injury is not being treated. So, our troops are experiencing anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, problems with memory loss and headaches with no relief. HBOT helps heal the brain injury and helps relieve the symptoms so that our troops and their families can get their lives back.
The problem is that HBOT is not yet covered by insurance, the military or the VA. It is expensive and requires multiple treatments.
America's Mighty Warriors is stepping up, in collaboration with Hampton Roads Hyperbaric Therapy in Norfolk, VA, to offer a full-service program for our service members and their families to get the treatment they need… and to get their lives back!
Help us help our warriors who sacrifice so much to provide us with safety and freedom every single day! To buy tickets or sponsorship packages for the event in Greenville, SC contact Brandon at 864‐449‐5211 or email: firstname.lastname@example.com.
