Location: Mosquito and Fly ResearchTitle: Bite Protection Performance of New Factory-Level Permethrin-Treated Military Uniforms Author

Submitted to: Meeting Abstract
Publication Type: Abstract Only
Publication Acceptance Date: 12/10/2010
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A
Interpretive Summary: N/A
Technical Abstract: Permethrin-treatment of field-worn U.S. Military uniforms has been standard practice since 1991. The uniform fabric composition has changed significantly from 100% cotton to 50:50 nylon:cotton Battle Dress Uniforms (BDUs), to 50:50 nylon:cotton Army Combat Uniforms (ACUs) with wrinkle-free finish, and more recently to fire-resistant material, such as the 65% Rayon/ 25% para-aramid / 10% nylon Fire-Resistant Army Combat Uniform (FRACU). In addition to fiber and finish changes, fabric constructions have changed as well. These changes result in less permethrin absorption and retention and thus negatively impact use of current field permethrin impregnation methods. The changes also negatively impact protection from insect bites. Factory permethrin-impregnation of uniforms overcomes these issues by use of appropriate binders to retard permethrin loss and thereby provide a high level of protection from insect bites throughout the uniform lifetime. The US Marine Corps transitioned by completing "First Article Testing" of all vendors in 2007 while the US Army completed this with their FRACUs in 2010. "First Article Testing" involves permethrin content analysis by gas chromatography / mass spectrometry and bite protection evaluation by testing uniform material against mosquitoes. This talk will cover the results of this testing (permethrin content and bite protection) for uniforms (U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, and U.S. Air Force) that have been evaluated over the past 5 years.

Bryozoan Biodiversity on the Web
Freshman Bioinformatics major at Loyola University
REU Mentor: Dr. Scott Lidgard (Associate Curator, Geology)
Symposium Presentation Title: Bryozoan Biodiversity on the Web (Lophotrochozoa: Bryozoa)
Symposium Presentation Abstract: Utilizing the internet for disseminating and exchanging biodiversity data creates new ways for scientists to collaborate and conduct research. Current online databases output queries more effectively than any non-automated searching method, allowing researchers to spend less time retrieving data and more time analyzing it. In the case of understudied taxa, this online collaboration yields faster progress toward an understanding of their biodiversity and systematics, bringing them closer to the level of better-known taxa. Bryozoans are among the more understudied taxa with a small research community, and the Bryozoan Biodiversity on the Web project aims to enhance research for bryozoan specialists by making taxonomic, systematic, bibliographic, photographic, and biogeographic data pertaining to Bryozoans accessible on a website.
The timeline for the project divides the research into five main phases: 1) Combine bryozoan data from multiple sources into one large database 2) Use the Drupal content management system to create a website that hosts the database content 3) Develop modules for the content management system using the Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) programming language to accommodate taxonomic and biodiversity data 4) Engage an initial group of website users that will test the functionalities of the bryozoan website 5) Expand website access to the bryozoan research community and the general public. Current progress is nearing 60% completion of phase one.
Phase one relies heavily on PHP scripts to semi-automate solutions to data discrepancies and to unify the data from multiple bryozoan databases. Bioinformatics programs were created to restructure data tables that do not adhere to database design principles. Though the project remains in the initial phase, results of phase one will in be beneficial to the bryozoan research community. Having a unified database allows researchers to obtain maximal data from one source. The completion of the remaining phases will make access to this database more expedient.
Original Project Description: This project (www.bryozone.net) is the further development of a global reference for a large phylum of marine and freshwater animals, the Bryozoa. BryoZone is a relational database that grew out of The Bryozoa Home Page (www.bryozoa.net), over 4,000 hyperlinked html pages of taxonomy, morphology, scanning microscopy images, and references. Both sites serve the international community of bryozoan researchers in evolution, ecology and systematics. Bryozoans are quite unlike most animals, in that many asexually budded modules, or zooids, comprise the colonial body of a single genetic individual. Much of their taxonomy is based on the fact that these modules can be different morphologically, even though they are identical genetically. Their rich fossil record records the evolution of complexity in zooid polymorphism. Their presence in all the world's oceans and freshwater as habitats for fishes and countless numbers of invertebrates that live on and in their colonies attests to their important roles in benthic ecosystems and our comprehension of marine biodiversity. However, their zooids are small, their taxonomy is complex, and they are grossly understudied. BryoZone is about overcoming these obstacles. Our goal this summer is to design and re-program BryoZone to include online contributions and editing of systematic information, bibliographies, images, distribution records, a glossary and more. We are currently evaluating the revision plan, based on open-source MySQL and Ruby/Rails or Drupal.
Research methods and techniques: REU participants in the project will receive an introduction to bryozoan morphology and systematics. They will also receive instruction and hands-on experience in biodiversity database design practices, and strategies for accommodating systematic and biogeographic analyses of species morphology, biomolecular data, and geographic occurrences. They will actively participate in designing, programming, and testing phases of this biodiversity database revision. Depending upon their levels of expertise, they may have the opportunity to co-develop a software product for disambiguating taxonomic names in complex historical nomenclatures (e.g. synonymies), to be made available to the broader cyber-taxonomy community. Time permitting, we will accept and integrate a wealth of bryozoan data and images that are awaiting this revised project's completion.

Glacial Lakes Energy is taking the message about the benefits of higher ethanol plants right to the pumps . . . and price-conscious consumers are listening.
With ethanol plants in Watertown and Mina, SD, Glacial Lakes Energy began a "Flex Fuel Friday" campaign in July to educate consumers about higher ethanol blends and encourage them to try the benefits for themselves.
The Flex Fuel Fridays have been held for an hour around noon on Fridays where consumers can get $.50 per gallon off purchases of E15, E20 and E30, and $1.00 per gallon off purchases of E85.
To date, Glacial Lakes Energy has held Flex Fuel Friday events at five retail fuel stations in Watertown, SD; and three in Aberdeen, SD. From now until the end of October, the ethanol producer will continue to hold events in each city; as well as Flex Fuel Fridays (later in the day) in surrounding communities, says Marcy Kohl, Glacial Lakes Energy's manager of corporate administration.
This kind of promotion would work well in metropolitan areas in other areas of the country, but ethanol plants would need to commit at least four or five people per station to answer questions and talk with consumers about ethanol blends and what vehicles can use them, says Richard Wiarda, vice president, Glacial Lakes Energy Board of Directors. To help spread the message about higher ethanol blends, the company also gives away license plate holders that promote the use of ethanol, information on ethanol and other Glacial Lakes Energy items.
<< A Flex Fuel Friday event was held at the Sioux Valley Coop C-Store in Watertown, SD, where a total of 850 gallons of E30 and E85 was pumped.
In addition, Glacial Lakes Energy has been collecting consumer signatures in support of the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) at the Flex Fuel Friday events. It will then take these signatures to congressional representatives.
Glacial Lakes Energy, which promotes Flex Fuel Fridays on the radio, Twitter and Facebook, has created quite a following. When people can save a dollar per gallon for E85, that makes a big difference in their pocketbook, Kohl says. While ethanol blends can help save consumers at the pump, the price difference will depend on the individual fuel station, she notes.
Fuel station owners have been supportive of the Flex Fuel Friday program, Kohl says. "We've pumped from 800 to 850 gallons of ethanol in an hour, and they see what this is doing to their bottom line," Kohl says.
Steve Stone, owner, Stone's Truck Stop, Watertown, SD, says that the Flex Fuel Friday campaign has brought "a lot of new faces" to his business. While a lot of the business is price-driven, the campaign does get consumers thinking about whether higher blends are a better deal, he says.
Between its two plants in South Dakota, Glacial Lakes Energy produces more than 200 million gallons of ethanol per year.
A customer choosing E30 for his vehicle is assisted by Darrell Popham, secretary of the Glacial Lakes Energy Board of Directors. >>

Regional Biosafety Laboratory
The Tulane University Regional Biosafety Laboratory at The Tulane National Primate Research Center is a biosafety level three (BSL-3) facility. Research conducted in the facility focuses on the development of treatments, vaccines and diagnostics for emerging infectious diseases that occur naturally, such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and against biological agents that have the potential for misuse for terrorism. The overall goal of research associated with this facility is to protect the health and safety of our community and the nation.
Scientists use biosafety labs to safely and effectively study infectious and toxic materials. These state-of-the-art labs are designed not only to protect researchers from contamination, but also to prevent microorganisms from entering the environment. There are four biosafety levels (BSLs) that define proper laboratory techniques, safety equipment, and design, depending on the types of agents being studied. Brief descriptions can be found below. More complete information is available at the CDC website.
Types of Biosafety Labs
BSL-1 labs are used to study agents not known to consistently cause disease in healthy adult humans. The work is generally conducted on open bench tops using basic safety procedures. No special equipment or design features are required.
A typical BSL-1 lab is a high school biology laboratory.
BSL-2 labs are used to study moderate-risk agents that pose a danger if accidentally inhaled, swallowed or exposed to the skin. Safety measures include access controls, specialized training for laboratory employees, personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye wear as well as biosafety cabinets, hand-washing sinks and decontamination of waste material.
Most of the TNPRC is BSL-2 lab environment, as are hospital laboratories.
BSL-3 labs are used to study agents that can be transmitted through the air and cause serious or potentially lethal disease. Research precautions include those indicated for BSL-2 labs as well as respiratory protection, specialized ventilation and decontamination systems and showering when entering and exiting the facility.
The TNPRC has had an operational BSL-3 facility for more than 15 years.
BSL-4 labs are used to study agents that pose a high risk of life-threatening disease for which no vaccine or therapy is available. Lab personnel are required to wear full-body, air -supplied "space suits" when working in the facility. The labs incorporate all BSL-3 safety features as well as having air-tight door seals and occupy safe, isolated zones within a larger building.
The Tulane Regional Biosafety Laboratory is NOT a BSL-4 laboratory. The closest BSL-4 laboratories are at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, and at the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.
Safety & Security
BSL-3 laboratories are explicitly designed to protect both the research scientists and the public from exposure to biological agents or biotoxins used in research. The design principle used to ensure the safety of the facility is described as a "box-within-a-box-within a box."" This engineering principle has been utilized to safely design and operate these types of infectious disease laboratories for over 50 years.
Research activities using infectious pathogens occur in chambers under negative pressure deep within the containment laboratory; these laboratories are in turn completely contained within the facility's outer building. Air leaving the chambers, laboratories and the outer building passes through multiple high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters. In fact, air leaving the building is cleaner than air coming into the building.
All employees who have access to or work with select agents are required by federal law to undergo a FBI background check and fingerprinting.
The Tulane Regional Biosafety Laboratory has been designed in compliance with federal regulations set forth by the National Institutes of Health. These regulations govern the construction, use, security, inspection and certification of a BSL-3 laboratory, including the safeguards to ensure the proper containment and destruction of infectious agents.
BSL-3 facilities have operated safely in the United States for more than 30 years.
Before entering the laboratory area, employees are required to remove street clothing and put on protective clothing. When leaving, they must remove protective clothing and shower before changing back into street clothing. Protective clothing is sterilized before being laundered.
The Tulane National Primate Research Center has operated a BSL-3 laboratory for over 25 years.
The TNPRC is a division of Tulane University (985) 871-6201 email@example.com

Derek Jacobs, among youngest in nation to achieve MCSE status when he was 12, killed in motorcycle accident.
Derek Jacobs, 18, lost control of his motorcycle early Saturday and crashed into a guardrail and a pole, the Palm Beach County sheriff's office said. He was wearing a helmet.
"It was just a crazy accident of a bump or something, and he was catapulted," said his mother, Leslie Jacobs. "He had, of course, potential, because he was brilliant, and he was just a wonderful son. He wanted to make a difference in the world."
Derek was set to get his engineering degree this year after only two years at Florida International University. He wanted to be a neurosurgeon, his mother said.
At age 12, Derek became a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer.
Two years later, he and his family had identity chips implanted on live television. They were the first family to get VeriChip IDs, made by Applied Digital Solutions.
Derek pushed his parents to look into the chips as a way to help store medical information for his father, who suffered a host of health problems, including cancer.

10 tips for crafting effective, user-friendly content.
1. Keep your audience in mind.
Consider who will be reading and using your web content.
- Prospective students / parents
- current students / parents
- alumnae
- faculty
- staff
What are they looking for, and what do they need? Be sure the tone, language and organization of content is appropriate for your audience.
2. Keep your objective in mind.
What is the desired outcome of someone visiting your page?
It can be as simple as finding and understanding the information.
Here are some other possibilities:
- make a gift
- rsvp or register for an event
- download a form
- go to another page or site to complete a task
The above options are what we consider "calls to action". These need to be very clear to the visitor and stand out from the rest of the text somehow. It's also good to repeat them. For example, if a link to download a form is within the overall text explaining the form, it is also helpful to place it in the right sidebar under a header.
3. Be concise.
Web writing should be clear and direct. Avoid the TLDR (too long, didn't read) pitfall – this applies to email too.
As a higher educational institution, we tend to favor long, academically-oriented prose. On the web, however, we want to keep sentences short. Remove words or descriptions that don't add value to the content. As Thoreau instructed, 'simplify, simplify.'
Hemingway, an author known for being bold and direct, provides a great example. The Hemingway App is a handy litmus test for whether your content could use some editing.
Also consider leading with the lede. If the page can be summarized in one or two sentences, enter that in the area for "lede" copy.
4. Make content scannable.
Readers scan web pages before they read. If they don't recognize useful, relevant content, they often move on.
Elements that enhance scanning:
- Headers and subheaders
- Use these to create digestible chunks of information
- Links
- Block quotes
- Bulleted lists
- Graphics
5. Write meaningful headers.
Readers rely on headers to navigate on-page content. Choose words for headers and subheaders that clearly describe the content they introduce. Most of the time it is best to avoid clever or cute language. The meaning may be obvious to you, but not to the visitor.
6. Use bulleted or numbered lists.
Bulleted lists are easier to scan and read than full paragraphs. If you are listing three or more items, consider using a bulleted list. For instructions or long lists like this one, consider using numbered lists for easy reference.
7. Use active voice.
Writing in the active voice is more clear, conversational and engaging than the passive voice. Just ask Strunk and White: "The active voice is usually more direct and vigorous than the passive." Also, "when a sentence is made stronger, it usually becomes shorter. Thus, brevity is a by-product of vigor" (The Elements of Style, Third Edition, pages 18-19).
8. Set a friendly, yet professional, tone.
Think like a publisher and less like an administrator or marketer, depending on the information. Use a more conversational tone. Users are turned off by content that talks at them instead of with them. Consider how you would communicate with someone standing in front of you instead of via a formal letter or traditional advertisement.
9. Include valuable links.
If additional useful, relevant and appropriate content exists elsewhere—either in the college site or elsewhere—link to it. Consider what content elsewhere might add value to yours and improve usability. When possible, include links within your page copy to make them contextually relevant.
Avoid using "click here" as your linked text. Active, descriptive text helps users using screen readers and contributes to improved SEO. If you must use "click here", link the whole phrase, e.g., Click here to register. Better: Register here. Best: Register now.
10. Keep content fresh.
Schedule regular reviews of your content. Keep it up-to-date and aligned with your objectives. Check links to make sure they are still active and useful. The college site aims to provide a dynamic and interesting experience for our visitors by cross-linking and displaying content from across the site.
Following these guidelines also helps with search engine optimization (SEO) for your pages.
To really maximize SEO, consider language and word-choice when writing pages. We tend to use language familiar to us as members of a particular field or institution which can sometimes contain jargon not familiar to our audiences. Think about words and phrases a novice or outsider might use to search for your information, and incorporate that into your copy and headers.

Electrical contractors may want to grab a pair of sunglasses. Government legislation, growing demand for the use of environmentally friendly fuels, and America's insatiable appetite for energy are making the power plant construction outlook brighter than ever. By the end of 2007, the construction put in place power market will increase 5% to approximately $42.8 billion, according to FMI Corp., a management consulting and investment banking firm headquartered in Raleigh, N.C. For 2008, that figure is expected to rise another 6% to more than $45.3 billion and reach a projected $56.6 billion by 2011.
One of the driving forces behind the escalating power plant industry is the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which provides tax incentives and loan guarantees for energy production of assorted types, including nuclear, wind, and biomass. "Green power is a hot topic right now, and federal regulations are forthcoming," says Heather Jones, construction economist for FMI Corp. "Current legislative activity involving green power includes the House committee's recent changes to the Energy Title of the Farm Bill. It comprises $2 billion in loan guarantees for biofuel production plants and biorefineries, along with $15 million for the Forest Bioenergy Research Program."
Furthermore, this past May, President Bush directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of Energy (DOE) to begin taking action to increase the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and to implement an Alternative Fuels standard. In June, the Senate passed legislation that expands the production of renewable fuels to 36 billion gallons by 2022 — with 15 billion to come from corn-derived ethanol.
This push toward alternate energy sources will translate into the construction of new power plants. In its report, "Energy and Efficiency: Utilities Global Survey 2007," PriceWaterhouseCoopers states that "utility companies worldwide expect wind and nuclear power to provide an increasing share of their market's energy consumption over the next five years." Currently, wind farms are realizing the fastest growth. According to the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA), Washington, D.C., the industry is on track to install more than 3,000 MW in 2007 — surpassing a record-setting 2,400 MW in 2006.
Another energy source garnering interest is nuclear power. After a 28-year construction lag, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), Washington, D.C., reports that approximately 17 companies and consortia are pursuing licenses for more than 30 nuclear power plants.
Despite all the hype being given to green power, Jones says that coal plants will likely remain the largest source of energy. Figures released by the National Energy Technology Library (NETL) support this claim, stating that there are currently 151 proposed and new (on-line) coal-fired power plants in the United States. "According to the DOE's Energy Information Administration (EIA), the percentage of power from coal is expected to decrease slightly from 50% in 2005 to 49% in 2020, before increasing to 57% in 2030," Jones adds.
Much of the power plant construction will occur in the Rocky Mountain and Southwest market regions. Sugar Land, Texas-based Industrial Information Resources (IIR) reports that in 2009, the Rocky Mountain region — comprised of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming — will see the construction of 22 energy projects, totaling approximately $12 billion. During 2007, the states of Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana, which make up the Southwest market region, are scheduled to begin an estimated $4 billion worth of capital spending in the alternative fuels industry.
Along with the need for additional sources of power generation comes the call for major reinvestment in the nation's electricity grid. "Transmission is just as an important part of the power market as generation," says Jones. "But there have not been significant outlays on transmission lines for the past 20 or 30 years."
To address this issue, the DOE recently announced it will provide up to $51.8 million for five cost-shared projects designed to speed modernization of the grid. According to the DOE, this research will further the development and application of high-temperature superconductors, which have the capability to relieve congestion on the electricity grid.

Cthulhu Saves the World Review
- Publisher: TinkerHouse Games
- Genre: Adventure
- Released: 28 Jun, 2012
- Size: 235.5 MB
- Price: $1.99
- Packs in all the content of the latest PC version without missing a beat.
- Just as lighthearted and fun as ever. Intense battle system and save-anywhere system perfectly matched to the mobile platform.
- Overly sensitive virtual-pad controls, makes movement a pain.
- Difficulty level assumes some familiarity with JRPGs.
Aside from some minor control quirks, Cthulhu Saves the World feels just as good on the iOS platform as it did two years ago on the 360 - a great pick for fans of old-school RPGs.
- Full Review
- App Store Info
It has taken two years since first appearing on the XBLIG store, but Zeboyd's Cthulhu Saves the World has finally dropped on to iOS devices thanks to TinkerHouse Games. In an effort to keep the game as in-tact as possible, the controls are the only major change made to the game, though fans of this retro-RPG love letter will have no problem jumping in and causing havoc all over again.
For those not familiar with this JRPG-ish title, you play as Cthulhu, the Lovecraftian terror that heralds Earth's doom, but something isn't quite right. Upon waking, your evil powers are stripped away by a priest, cursing you so that they only way to regain them is to live the life of a 'Hero'.
Aside from the usual combination of wandering an extensive, labyrinthine overworld, complete with many dungeons to explore (be it for loot or to progress the story), the real meat of the game comes in the combat. While walking around, players will be forced in to random encounters with an assortment of enemies - for some this may be an old-school deal-breaker, but thankfully such encounters are limited and once a minimum of fights are completed, the player can choose to fight or simply explore.
Once combat begins you're thrown in to a first-person perspective, facing your enemies and selecting the abilities you wish to use from the extensive menu system. Attacks play out according to the highest agility and increase the combo meter, which can be used to improve attacks and spells. Also, certain attacks can impart 'insanity', potentially making an enemy insane and increasing the damage they take; just be careful because you can also take more damage as a result of them becoming frenzied. Combat rewards speedy resolution by increasing the amount of mana returned, but also because the longer you fight for, the more damage you'll take from attacks.
It's a frantic and exciting battle system that means every fight has the potential to be deadly. Should you survive, you'll soak up the experience and level up, choosing from one of two rewards to specialize your characters.
If there's any weakness to this release of Cthulhu Saves the World it's that the invisible virtual d-pad feels far too sensitive, making it hard to accurately move around maps. Given that this was the only real downside to playing this release, it's an easy game to recommend to fans of classic RPGs and those who missed out the first time around.
Description"Cthulhu Saves The World is so good and so hip and yet so faithful to the 16-bit games it parodies so well..."
- Touch Arcade
The XBLA and Steam indie hit finally comes to iOS!
The lord of insanity, Cthulhu was all set to plunge the world into insanity and destruction when his powers were suddenly sealed away by a mysterious sorcerer.

I'm thinking about putting out the Stoker Ramp off Alameda this weekend, What do you think??
Local weather resources and topics.
Moderator: BayAreaKite
Kitecrazy, I must have missed this good wind you're talking about. I was there from 11am until 6pm and got about 30 minutes of decent riding. It was sorely up and down. The best part was hanging out with the cool people.
I guess the sensor at Sherman gets mucked on the south winds as it says it was averaging 20+ most of the day, but having been there I can tell you it was possibly averaging 14mph most of the day and at times it would gust pretty high but it never held. Overall it was a Friday well spent as any day on the water and with cool people is a good day.
Bobby, that's the closest thing to a negative post that I've ever seen from you.
The wind must have truly sucked.
I'm curious if Jason was riding at Little Baja; it seems like on those SW days the changed wind angle doesn't make as much of a different down there.
aka Pablito
It says 10M, but it's really a 9.
yuri i was ride n with limmie on your beach..
and i hope tj comes back soon.
not a super blow. but still, ride n with buds and getting wet!
paul looks like your gonna get yours on the coast.
lim if you put it we will come.. hell ill try n hit it.

Bobby, the good wind happened right when you left--thanks for making the sacrifice. After the clouds went away and the wind came back, it was much smoother for about an hour. That was the best session of the day. John and I had it all to ourselves for that one.
But having been there all day myself, it was fun to hang out with all the other addicts. To me hanging out with the cool people is always a big reason to go to Sherman, as important as the good wind.
Team rider for Sheldon Kiteboarding and North
I am going dirtbiking today but if you guys are gonna hit the slider, i have a dedicated thrasher board without fins you guys can use. That thing is slippery. Wear a helmet, get it on film. Hope it blows!
Darn, I need to learn to be more patient. I saw quite a few people at little baja on my way out. I should have known it would get good. A good day none the less sharing the stoke with others.
Ha, ha didn't mean to be negative, I was just wondering if I missed the session he was on. I know Bret was riding for 3 hours before I got there and said it was good. I was curious if that was when kitecrazy was riding.
Yeah, there were a TON of kites at little baja on the launch area when I left. I had never seen that many kites there. It looked like a competition site. I would also add that Dave rode most of the day. He made it work and I was REALLY impressed. Whenever I start getting semi flushed down the channel it's difficult for me to enjoy myself because all I can think about it trying to get a bit upwind to get back to the beach. Dave maintained his ground and did some nice tricks, too!
Bummer I missed the wind when I left, but overall it was a really fun day so I can't complain.
Well if you guys had all gotten together and agreed to post about how wonderful the wind was, I would have been suspicious.
I'm with Charlie on the season change; fall came early this year and took the sweet Sherman wind with it. It seems like most years we get at least one last week of thermal wind before October, but it didn't happen this year.
aka Pablito
It says 10M, but it's really a 9.
Stop your bitchin...
c'mon you guys, the delta was f*'n epic all season.....don't bitch that once we are in OCT!!!! the wind is changing.....cheez, what do you want, wind 100% of the year?? ? If you do, you need to adjust your expectations kids.......and BTW, Crissy can get nothing short of epic this time of the year, so open your mind, and go check it out.......
It's like skiing, and bitching when the North facing hill is not good....did you try other aspects of the mountain? How about the corn over there???? open your mind........
For what it's worth, when the wind is SW, the delta rocks. It's when it's SSW direction, that it gets funky at the park, but is still good @ little baja....topography is the reason......Any time you have clouds overhead, it's gonaa be leass then epic.......
So stop moaning "ohh, the season is changing".......how about "HELL YEAH, THE SEASON IS CHANGING, TIME FOR SOME REAL WAVES!!!!!".....
did someone say waves?????
Get some, Z.

WASHINGTON—Barack Obama and Mitt Romney made sharply different bets about who would vote this year.
It turned out that Americans who cast ballots looked collectively much more like what Obama had envisioned — a diverse tapestry that reflected a changing America — than the whiter, older electorate Romney had banked on.
MORE: U.S. Election coverage
Younger voters and minorities came to the polls at levels not far off from the historic coalition Obama assembled in 2008. The reality caught off-guard Republicans who had banked on a more monolithic voting body sending Romney to the White House — and who had based their polling on that assumption.
The outcome revealed a stark problem for Republicans: If they don't broaden their tent, they won't move forward.
And it foreshadowed changes over the next generation that could put long-held Republican states onto the political battleground maps of the future.
"Clearly, when you look at African-American and Latino voters, they went overwhelmingly for the president," said John Stineman, a Republican strategist from Iowa. "And that's certainly a gap that's going to require a lot of attention from Republicans."
In exit polling Tuesday, voters mirrored the voting public's makeup of four years ago, when Obama shattered minority voting barriers and drove young voters to the polls unlike any candidate in generations.
White voters made up 72 per cent of the electorate — less than four years ago — while black voters remained at 13 per cent and Hispanics increased from 9 per cent to 10 per cent.
MORE: Obama wins re-election
That flew in the face of Republican assumptions that the fierce economic headwinds of the past three years and the passing of the novelty of the first African-American president would trim Obama's support from black voters, perhaps enough to make the difference in a close election.
However, Obama carried Virginia, the heart of the old South, in part by having increased his record support from black voters there in 2008, which reached 18 per cent, to more than 20 per cent, according to Obama campaign internal tracking polls.
It was also reflected in turnout that matched his 2008 totals in places like Cleveland, which helped Obama carry Ohio solidly despite Romney's all-out effort there in the campaign's final weeks.
"Republicans have been saying for months" that Obama's black support would slip, Democratic pollster Paul Maslin said. "And what happens? When African-Americans had the chance to affirm him, they came out in droves."
Obama won in 2008 by carrying several long-held Republican states, including North Carolina, Virginia and Indiana. And while Romney easily carried Indiana and narrowly peeled back North Carolina, the fact that Obama held Virginia points to a long-term demographic shift that survived the pressures of the poor economy.
Obama carried each contested state except North Carolina by aggressively registering first-time voters. He matched his share of the youth vote from 2008, and nearly matched his support from seniors.
The 2012 electorate mirrored 2008 in terms of party identification and racial makeup, with self-identified Democrats topping Republicans and independents.
During his victory speech Tuesday, Obama nodded to the Democratic coalition he had held together.
"It doesn't matter if you're black or white, or Hispanic or Asian, or Native American, or young or old or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay or straight," Obama told his crowd of supporters gathered in Chicago. "You can make it here in America if you're willing to try."
The minority and youth turnout was not the only assumption Romney made that turned out to be wrong.
While voters considered the economy the driving issue in the election, they did not hold Obama wholly responsible, as Romney long had assumed they would.
That realization forced Romney to pivot late in the campaign and attempt to turn the election into a choice of competing visions. Republicans argued late in the campaign that Romney's performance during the first of three debates had energized a groundswell of enthusiasm seen in their polling.
But it seemed Obama's support was quietly amassing with more vigour, Republican strategists said.
"There really wasn't an enthusiasm gap," said Republican strategist Charlie Black, an informal Romney adviser. "And independents didn't break our way."
Still, Obama will have his work cut out if he hopes to heal the partisan wounds of his first term.
The voting public was more ideologically polarized than in 2008 or 2004. The share of moderates dipped slightly to 41 per cent, while 25 per cent called themselves liberal, the highest share saying so in recent exit polls. Thirty-five per cent called themselves conservative, about the same as in the previous two presidential contests.
The economy was rated the top issue by about 60 per cent of voters surveyed as they left their polling places. But more said former President George W. Bush bore responsibility for current circumstances than Obama did after nearly four years in office.
That boded well for the president, who had worked to turn the election into a choice between his proposals and Romney's, rather than a simple referendum on the economy during his time in the White House.
Unemployment stood at 7.9 per cent on Election Day, higher than when the president took office. And despite signs of progress, the economy is still struggling after the worst recession in history.
Obama is the first president to win re-election with unemployment above 7.2 per cent since Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936.

Is it too cliche to say Barry White?
No music, thank you very much. Don't want anything interfering with my and my partner's sounds.
My partner can't multitask so it'd be bad to have music on.

You remember Toto, don't you? Not the dog but the toilet company in Japan that makes those Neorest toilets with the "washlet" under the lid. Now it's taken that butt-spraying goodness a step further with its Neorest Hybrid Series toilets, which use less water than any other, just 5.5 liters (1.45 gallons) per flush. It's also jumping into a new hatbox-shaped design that mimics Kohler's "Purist" hatbox toilet (1.6 gallons per flush) that's been available for a couple of years.
Toto has been in a competition with Matsushita in Japan to make the most efficient toilet, where Matsushita had a 5.7 liter-per-flush toilet released late last year, but now Toto roars back with this Neorest Hybrid Series. The company didn't announce pricing just yet, but if this one is in line with Toto's other Neorest toilets, it will probably start around $4000. [Far East Gizmos]

Circuit training club owners now have an association they can join to help them address various concerns unique to their part of the health club industry. This week, the Association of Hydraulic and Fitness Clubs began operation and announced a conference for members.
The association was formed to share industry knowledge, create a community of owners and managers, and conduct the annual workshop, according to association founder Symanthia Harper.
"We're in transition. At first it was just Curves franchisees. Then when the Curves clones and independents came along, an entire industry was born. What we're doing now is educating the entire industry," said Harper. "We found that we got a lot of calls from club owners that have basically the same challenges, 'How do I attract more members, how do I extend the members I have, what new value-added services can I offer,' and so on. So, we got the idea that it's high time for a national conference to address these timely issues and to have an idea exchange."
The conference, Harmony Fitness Workshop, is tailored expressly for 30-minute circuit training health clubs. It is scheduled for Oct. 22-Oct. 24 at the Houston Airport Marriott. The workshop focuses on the specific challenges and concerns in running circuit-training gyms, whether they are franchised units such as Curves or ExpressFit or whether they are independent.

Narcotics incidents at LC-M
Little Cypress-Mauriceville High School reported two separate incidents to the Orange County Sheriff's Office within two days regarding students found in possession of marijuana at the campus, which is a drug-free zone, deputies report.
According to a report on Tuesday, April 29, OCSO deputies responded to the school after receiving a call from administrators at about 11:23 a.m. in reference to a student in possession of drugs. Chief Deputy Clint Hodgkinson said a teacher discovered the student was in possession of marijuana after overhearing a conversation the youth was having with a fellow student. She reportedly heard the student say there was marijuana inside a backpack in the student's locker. A search of the locker produced a small amount of marijuana inside a Ziploc bag, OCSO reports. The student was arrested and taken to a juvenile detention center in Hardin County. Orange County does not have a juvenile holding center, Hodgkinson reports, so students in need of detention are sent to Hardin County, a potential punishment for all juvenile offenders.
Deputies responded to a second incident at about 10:42 a.m. on April 30 at LC-M High School. Hodgkinson said in that case, a coach reportedly observed a student smoking between buildings. When the coach approached the student, it was discovered the student was in possession of a marijuana pipe and smoking a "blunt," or cigar rolled with marijuana, deputies report. OCSO detained the student in possession, but both of the students face legal, educational and potentially social consequences as a result of their illegal activities.
LCMCISD Director of Secondary Curriculum and Instruction Stacy Brister said students in possession of illegal contraband, like marijuana or weapons, face stiff disciplinary measures dictated by the district's Student Code of Conduct. Measures include, but are not limited to, contacting the students' parents and law enforcement officials, transferring students to alternative campuses away from friends or expelling them altogether.
"If students are in possession of drugs or anything of that nature, we always call the sheriff's department and they decide what to do as far as the determination of an arrest," Brister said. "That part is their call. As far as student discipline goes, that goes back to code of conduct."
She said the disciplinary action varies dependent upon the severity of the student's infraction, and all students face certain repercussions.
"They are sent to our alternative school (LC-M Alternative Education Center, or AEC) for a certain number of days, which varies with each situation," Brister continued. "For instance, are they in possession or in possession with the intent to distribute, two completely different issues in which the discipline would vary accordingly. It becomes more severe with more severe issues. There are many infractions that may result in students going to AEC, but drugs are definitely one of those considerations."
She said in all cases of possession of illegal contraband, "at the very least" the parents and sheriff's office are contacted "without a doubt."
Chief Deputy Hodgkinson said school administrators are able to search lockers at any time as students are on school property and in the care of the district, so students trying to hide paraphernalia on campus are taking a big risk toward getting caught – or even arrested.
