Games this week
Ashbrook (3-3) at Kings Mountain (2-5)
Chase (4-3) at Shelby (3-4)
Burns (4-3) at East Rutherford (4-3)
Crest (6-1) at North Gaston (1-6)
What the coaches are saying
Lance Ware, Shelby
�I thought our offensive line had one of its better games (versus Patton). They opened up some holes and we were able to run the ball.
�I like the way our defense has played the last two games. We�ve had 11 out there running to the ball and that�s what you want. By playing good defense, we�ve been able to overcome the fumbles and penalties we�ve had on on offense. That will get you sooner or later if we don�t take care of that.
�I like the way some of our kids are stepping up into a leadership role. I�m especially proud of way they�ve come together and got behind each other.
�Chase is strong on the defensive front. They�ve got two two defensive ends who can hurt you in the running and passing game. On film, we�ve seen that we�re going to have to be aware of where they are and account for them.
�Offensively, they�re a triple-option team and they show you a lot of formations. You have to get beyond the window dressing and the formations, be disciplined and take care of your assignments. That�s the key against the option.
�This is a huge conference game for us, especially with them being a 2A school. Nothing is guaranteed. You have to go out and execute. We have to go play hard.�
Mark Barnes, Crest
�Anytime you play as well as we did � and we played as well as we could for a half against A.C. Reynolds � you worry about the next week. That�s always tough. And North Gaston might be the first team other than Shelby who had more than one loss when we played them.
�But it�s a conference opponent and we have to be prepared. The offense they run (a flexbone option attack) is so out of the norm and difficult to prepare for. But if you want to be a great team, you have to go out and be better than you were the week before.
�I liked the attitude we had (last week) and we call it an �explosion� when you see that with every mistake A.C. Reynolds had we could capitalize and get it in the end zone. That was good to see. We�ve seen that several times this year and when that happens, it�s like a feeding frenzy.
�Our kicking game has developed. (Kicker) Alex Trejo is only a sophomore but he�s a big weapon. Anytime you make them have to go 80 yards and you only have to go 50 or 60, it�s a big advantage.
�Tripp (Hastings) has also been punting better and our coverage has improved. That was something we struggled with early in the year. And a big thing is that each of the last two weeks we�ve run a punt back.
�We�ve run two or three different ones at tailback and they all do different things for us. That sort have happened by necessity since each of them turns around and plays defense. P.J. (Brooks) has really come on. We knew he could run the football, but he�s getting better throwing the ball.�
Matt Beam, Burns
�We must execute this week (against) a different type of team, a more spread-�em-out, throw-it around type of team (East Rutherford), with a really athletic quarterback in the (T.J.) Watkins kid. On film, it seems like they have really athletic running backs and receivers that can hurt us. We�ll have to play well in the secondary and continue to get pressure like we have been on the quarterback.
�They look similar to us on defense in the fact of they run the 3-5 stack many times, and sometimes they�ll get into a four-down look. So we must be able to recognize that and then attack it. We also must make sure we take care of the football.
�I feel like there�s an element of our offense and defense and special teams that we�ve improved every single week and continue to improve. We�re by no means where we need to be.
�Last week (win against Chase) I was really please with our overall defensive execution and effort. I feel like our kids really paid attention Monday through Thursday.�
Greg Lloyd, Kings Mountain
�Ashbrook is very dangerous. What they do, they do well and they do it in a hurry. They�ve got outstanding speed. They�ve got outstanding size with their skilled athletes. They�re probably the best team we�ve seen up to this point.
�Defensively, they run well. They�ve got a solid kicking game. They�re very good. They�re much better than their record would indicate. So we know we have our hands full, so we�re going to do our best to prepare and get ready for it.
�These coaches and players, they fight. They�re not going to give up. We�re just looking forward to another football game this Friday, and we�re glad to be at home.
�We just gave up too many big plays (against Huss). We didn�t do a good job of kickoff coverage, and we turned the ball over in the red zone one time.
�We did a lot of great things. We gained a lot of yards. We held Hunter Huss to 10 first downs. And I thought we flew around real good on defense. I was really proud of our effort. A couple mistakes just cost us.�

|This article describes a collection of historical records available at FamilySearch.org.
Access the records: Michigan Deaths, 1867-1897 .
The state of Michigan required registration of deaths beginning in 1867. This collection covers deaths registered through 1897.
Two page ledger form provided by the Michigan Secretary of State. The registration ledgers are bound in volumes by year. The counties are listed alphabetically within each volume.
From 1867 to 1897, the township supervisor or city assessor or supervisor annually canvassed their area and recorded the deaths that took place the year preceding the first Monday in April. The supervisor or assessor returned the results to the county clerk within 30 days of completing the canvass. Each year the county clerk forwarded the records to Secretary of State. The Secretary of State had the records bound in books, one for each year, and made an annual report to the Governor. Registration was initially very incomplete. Some counties did not report any deaths during the first three years of this statute. This law remained in effect until 1897, when the state required a death certificate be issued. It is believed that approximately half of the deaths were missed in the time period from 1867 until 1897.
Deaths were recorded to serve public health needs. They are also used to probate wills and administer the deceased person's estate.
Death information was collected during the year following the death of the individual. The assessor or supervisor could obtain the information from anyone who had knowledge of the death. Normally it would be the spouse, parent, or child, but could be another relative, neighbor, physician, or undertaker. The information would only be as reliable as the informant's knowledge or memory.

Jamaal Anderson and the Chicago Bears no longer are a pair.
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported Saturday that the defensive lineman has been released by the team, according to a source informed of the transaction. The Bears cut the run-stopper to make room for recently signed backup quarterback Jordan Palmer, Rapoport was told.
The Bears later confirmed Anderson's departure, which came less than one month after he signed a one-year contract with the team. The Bears also signed defensive tackle Eric Foster and waived linebacker Andrew Starks.
Being cut by the Bears is the latest setback for Anderson, one of the more disappointing draft picks of the past decade. Selected by the Falcons eighth overall in 2007, Anderson compiled just 4.5 sacks in four seasons with Atlanta. He notched another three with the Indianapolis Colts in 2011 before struggling last season in Cincinnati. The Bengals cut him in July, and the Bears took a chance.
It's telling that Anderson was viewed as the least valuable player on the roster.The Around The League Podcast is now available on iTunes! Click here to listen and subscribe.

So I didn't plan to take a month long break from blogging. It just kind of happened. Things have been so busy here lately that the time I usually spend writing, planning, and scheduling posts (mostly the weekends) has been filled with other things.
The weekend after I posted my last post, I went to a wedding for a friend of mine, Bonnie, who I had met through being a bridesmaid at our friend Ruth's wedding last summer. People were at the reception and dancing for hours, so I really didn't get home until a lot later than I intended!
The following week we were cleaning, organizing, and de-cluttering the kitchen, since we were expecting work on our kitchen to start that week.
It ended up not happening till the following week but since my mom was at camp, and my dad was out of town, I was kind of holding down the fort.
We rented a camp up in Belgrade Lakes, which we had last summer too, and I did end up going up there twice. Mostly I was home though. I went up there the 21st and 22nd of July, and mostly hung out with my cousins kids, fishing, swimming, and boating. I went back up on the 25th and did some watercolor painting.
I put together a little package of goodies for Eileen, Kyle & their pets, and sent that out.
I went up to Burlington the 28th and the 29th, to hang out with some friends.
I ended up signing up for Content is King and Media Kits that Will Make You Money as my free Alt Summit classes for July. That happened at the beginning of last week. They were both really good. And definitely gave me a lot to think about as far as this blog goes. Look out for me to re-brand… including a new name! I'm very excited about it.
Then last weekend I babysat, went blueberry picking with my family, and out to lunch for my Aunt Belinda's birthday. I went to my Aunt's camp that she rents for a week every August.. (I'll probably spend some time there again this weekend.) But I promise I will be posting again soon! 🙂

From Dr. David Alexander, Rice Professor of Physics and Astronomy and creator of the Space Frontiers Lecture series:
As the International Space Station nears completion, humanity can proudly state that it has a permanent presence in space. But what's next? Do we head for the Moon? Mars?
President Obama's plan is to focus first on manned missions to nearby Earth asteroids by 2020 and then on to Mars by the 2030's. In addition, there is an increasing emphasis on the role played by commercial space enterprises in achieving these goals. Long flights or a sustained mission to other bodies in the solar system presents a number of hazards to the astronauts who undertake these missions. One way to minimize the dangers is to minimize the time it takes to travel to these distant outposts.
An exciting array of technologies are being developed which will revolutionize space flight and make such journeys possible. Are you ready for the Ceres truckstop, the Sea of Tranquility McDonalds or the Mons Olympus theme park?
|Concept art from NASA showing astronauts entering a Lunar outpost.
For the third in our series of lectures on the exploration of space, we welcome Dr. Franklin Chang Diaz, a national hero and the first Latino-American in the NASA astronaut program. Dr. Chang Diaz is an inspirational figure whose current career is focused on developing an advanced propulsion system that will open up the solar system for exploration.
Join us at Rice and find out for yourselves!
Fast Missions to Mars and Beyond: Developing the VASIMR Engine with local astronaut Franklin Chang Diaz. The lecture is Thursday, March 10 at 7 p.m. in McMurtry Auditorium at Rice's Duncan Hall, with a wine and cheese reception beginning at 6:30 p.m.

nrEditor's Note: EarthTechling, always looking to bring you interesting cleantech articles, is proud to repost this article courtesy of partner Natural Resources Defense Council. Author credit goes to Kaid Benfield.
Imagine a scenario by which our country's most populous state, notorious for freeways, traffic nightmares and smog, could reduce driving by 3.7 trillion miles by 2050 (compared to trends forecast under business as usual), the equivalent of taking all cars off the state's roads for 12 years. Imagine saving 140 billion gallons of gasoline through 2050, reducing oil consumption by an amount roughly equivalent to seven years' worth of all US offshore oil production. Imagine saving some 3,700 square miles of California farmland, forests, recreation areas, and other currently open space that would otherwise be lost to sprawl. Imagine eliminating 140 premature deaths and 105,000 asthma attacks and respiratory symptoms each year.
Those were among the findings reported in 2010 by Vision California, a scenario planning exercise that compared alternate strategies for accommodating an additional 60 million people and 24 million jobs expected to be absorbed into the Golden State by 2050. Funded by the California High Speed Rail Authority in partnership with the state'sStrategic Growth Council (a cabinet-level, statutorily mandated committee), the exercise was led by the highly respected urban design and planning firm, Calthorpe Associates.
The envisioned benefits would come from a "growing smart" scenario that would leverage the construction of a planned high-speed rail network with smart land use around and near the network's stations and additional intra-city transit systems. The scenario would include a more balanced housing mix, more infill development, and greater transportation options than under a business-as-usual scenario, which assumes a continuation of dispersed, auto-oriented development patterns (albeit with continued modest improvements in automobile, building, and energy generation efficiency). Even greater comparative benefits would be realized under a more ambitious "green future" alternative.
Peter Calthorpe, the charismatic California-based architect who founded Calthorpe Associates and has supervised large-scale planning exercises all over the US and a number of other countries, has come to believe that high-speed rail is a major key to achieving a more benign future for his home state. Writing recently in The San Francisco Chronicle, Calthorpe makes the case:
"Today, our country desperately needs new infrastructure development that will create jobs and economic growth while updating the American Dream and ensuring its environmental future. The answer is high-speed rail.
"More than a train ride is at stake; high-speed rail could catalyze the next generation of growth – one more oriented to who we are, what we can afford and what we really need. High-speed rail, along with innovative land use, will breed the kind of economic development and communities California is missing most – urban revitalization along with more walkable, affordable communities.
"California's 520-mile-long high-speed rail would connect north and south for half the dollars that otherwise would be needed for highway expansion and new airport facilities. More significantly, it would become a catalyst for urban renewal, enhance local transit systems and generate market-wise development opportunities."
International travelers marvel at the advanced, comfortable, fast, highly convenient rail systems enjoyed routinely by citizens of such countries as Japan, France, Spain, Taiwan, Italy and now China. Heck, even the Tour de France has used that nation's famous TGV – the world's fastest passenger train – to speed its riders from Avignon to Paris. Why not the United States?
While rail can't reasonably be expected to compete with air travel for thousand-mile-plus trips, we have plenty of regions where 100- to 500-mile trips are frequent, and where station-to-station service would be far more convenient (not to mention less stressful) than airport-to-airport. Since the inauguration of the Acela Express service between DC and New York – a modern, comfortable hourly train that is fast by US standards if still slow by international standards – I never fly the 225 miles to New York anymore. It is much easier to do work or relax on the Acela than in the cramped seats and highly regulated environment of economy air service, and you just can't beat being able to walk to your hotel and/or meeting at the destination.
The advantages for intercity travel aside, Calthorpe likes high-speed rail as a catalyst for a broader adaptation of transit-oriented development and smarter land use. Among the additional benefits to the state:
- New highway construction could be reduced by 4,700 miles, saving the state about $400 billion.
- The availability of alternatives to driving would reduce demand for new roads and parking lots, thus also reducing the amount of stormwater runoff to be cleaned and stored.
- Less driving would mean less air pollution and associated respiratory diseases. More walking in walkable neighborhoods built around transit would mean healthier bodies and less obesity, reducing health costs.
- Smaller parking lots and less demand for large-lot homes would reduce the need for irrigated landscaping, saving enough water per year to irrigate 5 million acres of California farmland.
- The cost of maintaining and fueling autos would go down, saving California households close to $11,000 in current dollars per year.
Read his entire article here.
Calthorpe, who has been an influence and become a professional friend in my own career, has had a major role in developing the design principles underlying what we now understand, partly due to his work, as "transit-oriented development" – walkable, mixed use neighborhoods built around transit stations. The concept is now widely espoused in planning departments across the country, for all of the reasons highlighted in the data above. While the empirical evidence suggests that TOD does not eliminate car use – and why would we expect it to? – there is now little question that it reduces both the number and length of car trips.
The older DC suburb of Arlington, Virginia, for example, was one of the first jurisdictions in the country to undertake planned transit-oriented development at a large scale, along the Orange Line corridor of the DC region's Metro rail transit system. By concentrating growth through redevelopment of mostly outdated commercial property along the corridor, Arlington added 17 million square feet of office space and 24,000 homes with almost no increase in automobile traffic. Meanwhile, Arlington's substantial inventory of lovely single-family homes remains undisturbed by the redevelopment.
The DC region was also one of four metros (the others were Philadelphia, Portland, and the San Francisco Bay Area) included in a study of 17 TODs by the well-known planning and engineering firm PB Placemaking; that research found that, on average, the TODs reduced car trips by 49 percent in the morning peak period and 48 percent in the evening peak, compared to what would be expected from standard engineering estimates typically used by municipalities.
The benefits of TOD come not just from the proximity to transit but also from the mixed-use, walkable neighborhood design used in conjunction with transit. For example, the award-winning suburban TOD Orenco Station, at the terminus of one of the Portland region's light rail lines, has been the subject of additional research. While residents of Orenco Station continue to use cars for many of their trips, 50 percent report walking to a store or shop five or more times a week; that is ten times the rate reported in an otherwise comparable suburban neighborhood with poor street connectivity and limited walkable access to shops and amenities.
In addition, 67 percent of Orenco residents say they use mass transit at least once a week; the other neighborhood is also within a quarter-mile of a light rail station, but only 42 percent of its residents report using transit. In other words, walkability matters, too: "transit-oriented development" requires not just transit but proper orientation to the transit. Orenco's 15 percent share of transit use for commuting has been criticized by some as being disappointingly low, but it is nonetheless three times the national median. I haven't seen reports of driving rates for Orenco (best measured as annual vehicle miles traveled per capita), but my guess is that the amount of walking trips and shorter driving distances enabled by its neighborhood-based shops and services, plus its more frequent transit usage, would produce notably lower rates of driving compared to non-TOD suburban neighborhoods, if perhaps still higher than an inner-city TOD would.
All this in addition to saving land, water, and public expenditures while reducing pollution and illness. Given that, according to Calthorpe, expanding highways and airports to accommodate California's growing population would likely cost some $171 billion, the case for using some of that money instead to invest in high-speed rail appears strong. Calthorpe's article says that the California Legislature needs to authorize $2.7 billion in bonds (plus $3.5 billion in matching federal funds) to begin the project.

Cincinatti has of course progressed much further toward a terminal condition than Minneapolis, but if you can see with your own eyes there should be little doubt that Minneapolis is traveling along the same course as Cincinatti. Cincinatti's recent "melee" has prompted some soul-searching of a kind that would greatly benefit Minneapolis. But don't hold your breath waiting to find a story like the August 26 Cincinatti Enquirer story "Suburbanites eschew downtown" anytime soon in the Minneapolis Star Tribune or the St. Paul Pioneer Press. And don't hold your breath waiting for either paper to use the great Middle English verb "eschew" in a headline either. Wonderful!

HOUSTON - Millions of Americans woke up early and lined up or logged on for Black Friday savings, but the deep discounts advertised turned into disappointment for a Katy couple when a retailer reneged on their deal.
They sent an email straight to consumer expert Amy Davis for help.
Kalpana Nautiyal and her husband set their alarm to log into to Sears.com at 2 a.m. Black Friday. They needed a new gas range, washer and dryer.
"If you look at the sale price, we were going to save almost $2,000 on three appliances," said Nautiyal, explaining why it was worth waking up so early.
It seemed the couple was successful. Sears sent an email with a confirmation number, thanking them for the order. They went to sleep and woke up to a second email. The second one read, "Your Sears.com order has been canceled ... because an error occurred while processing."
Nautiyal called the number on the email and was reassured she'd get the sale price.
"The first salesperson was very accommodating," she said "'No problem ma'am, sorry this happened.'"
But then came the run around and charges to her credit card. First, Sears charged her more than $2,400 -- the full price of the gas range. Two days later, she was charged another $3,600. When she called Sears again, customer service agents told her she was out of luck.
"They said, 'No, there is no way. I don't know why the rep would say so. There is no way we can honor the Black Friday price,'" recalled Nautiyal.
When Local 2 called Sears, a representative said Sears' online system confirmed the orders as they came in, not giving the system time to check inventory and realize they were out of the appliances. He said Sears would honor Nautiyal's original order.
"We are so glad that at least now you are on our side," Nautiyal told Davis.
We checked with a local consumer attorney. He said the confirmation email is an actual contract between the store and the customer. If customer service representatives won't listen to reason, you should send that confirmation, along with a certified letter, to the corporate office. If that fails, you may have to file in small claims court. You would be seeking the difference between the sales price and the full price you had to pay.

ACParadise Network: American Cosplay Paradise American Cosplay Experience American Cosplay Snapshots
Cosplaying is a silly hobby. Don't take it too seriously.
If you see a purposely bad cosplay, I likely have a hand in it. If you see a weird but funny skit, then there's a good chance I'm in it. I'm not the best at making costumes, but when it comes to skits and parody I definitely know what I'm doing.
I've been cosplaying since 1998, and I stopped for three years because of something that happened then. It's given me a rather unique view of cosplay. I don't take it seriously. Oh, I make costumes as well as I can, but I make ghetto or joke costumes a lot too.

Here's what the United States has done so far in an attempt to deter further Russian incursions into Ukraine: applied two rounds of economic sanctions and asked Congress to approve $1 billion in loan guarantees for Kiev.
Here's what President Obama says he won't do:
"We are not going to be getting into a military excursion in Ukraine," he told a television station in San Diego last week.
The president's careful response and unwillingness to consider military intervention has met with general support from other Democrats. But Republicans have been sharply critical.
"This is the ultimate result of a feckless foreign policy in which nobody believes in America's strength anymore," Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) charged this month.
The sniping is no surprise given the partisan divide in Washington. But would a Republican in the White House instead of Obama actually plot a different course?
That would depend entirely on which Republican we're talking about. The GOP has long been divided on foreign policy, and Ukraine has exposed fault lines that are likely to grow as the Republicans' 2016 nomination contest nears.
On foreign policy in general, and on Ukraine in particular, Republicans fall into three camps: hawks, realists and libertarians.
Let's start with the hawks. McCain, the hawk's leading voice on Ukraine, has been warning against a resurgent Russia at least since his 2000 presidential campaign, when he called for sanctions against Putin over Russia's actions in Chechnya. In the current crisis, he is still not calling for U.S. boots on the ground, but he has called for immediate shipments of small arms and ammunition to Kiev, as well as U.S. intelligence-sharing. "The United States should not be imposing an arms embargo on a victim of aggression," he said last week.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), a younger hawk, has gone a step further, calling not only for military aid to Kiev but also for suspending cooperation with Russia on other diplomatic projects, including negotiations with Iran. "Put simply, Russia should no longer be considered a responsible partner on any major international issue," Rubio wrote last week in what amounted to a call for a new Cold War.
William Kristol, editor of the Weekly Standard, may be the most hawkish of the hawks. Last week, he told CNN that "deploying ground troops … should not be ruled out."
Closer to the center of the GOP is moderate conservative Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), the top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a realist when it comes to foreign policy.
Corker had the courage to praise Obama's economic sanctions as "a step in the right direction," although he said he thought the president should add tougher measures. "We should send some shock waves through the Russian economy," he told me.
But military aid can wait, Corker said. "I don't know that that's something we should be doing right away."
Over the long run, the United States should strengthen its military relationship with Ukraine, Corker said -- but not now, in the heat of the crisis. "Military assistance isn't the priority today," he said. "It's to establish with the Ukrainians that we're going to be with them over the long haul."
The calmest part of the Republican Party when it comes to Ukraine may be its most traditional realists, who ran foreign policy during several presidencies.
The main U.S. goal in Ukraine, former national security advisor Brent Scowcroft said last week, should be to make sure the conflict in Russia's backyard doesn't spread to other countries or other issues.
"I don't think it's an issue of that great consequence," Scowcroft said of Crimea. It would be a mistake, he said, to try to match Russia "belligerence by belligerence."
"That may be where we end up, but I doubt we have to start there."
Finally, there are the libertarians, which brings us to Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who's at the top of early polls of potential Republican presidential nominees. Paul has been working hard in recent months to make his positions sound closer to the party's mainstream, which means criticizing the president and trying to sound hawkish.
But as a libertarian, he still wants to wage a minimalist foreign policy. The current situation has left him sounding a bit incoherent.
"If I were president, I wouldn't let Vladimir Putin get away with it," Paul announced in a column in Time magazine. What would he do? Among other steps, he'd suspend all U.S. economic aid to Ukraine, because some of the money might end up in Russia. In short, he'd destroy the Ukrainian economy in order to save it.
But the senator didn't go as far as his far more isolationist libertarian father, who wrote in USA Today that even that much activism in Ukraine would be too much. "Why does the U.S. care which flag will be hoisted on a small piece of land thousands of miles away?" Ron Paul wrote. "So what?"
And that attitude may have the most resonance with the American people. A Pew Research Center poll conducted in early March, before Crimea was annexed, found that most Americans believed the United States should "not get too involved" in the conflict. That included 50% of Republicans, against only 37% who favored taking a firm stance against Russia.
The crisis in Ukraine has presented a new opportunity for Republicans to snipe at the Obama administration, and they have embraced the task enthusiastically. But the pile-on isn't without risk. Debate about what to do about Russia has also caused new fissures within the party, and they're unlikely to be healed before 2016.

21st Century Learning at Tech Valley High School
Freshmen at Tech Valley High School construct solar ovens each spring to solve a mathematical and engineering problem posed by teacher Leah Penniman: What is the best shape for a parabolic trough solar cooker to be used in rural Haiti?
The work featured in the videos below is all part of project-based learning at Tech Valley High School that combines several subjects (in this case, math, world knowledge and engineering) to teach students a real-life lesson. In keeping with one of Tech Valley High's missions--partnering business and education experts to the benefit of students--this 2010 spring project involved an architect from Einhorn Yaffee Prescott Architecture and representatives from the Clever Fellows Innovation Consortium who advised the freshmen throughout their work.
In completing the work, the students also meet New York state learning standards for several subjects: math, world knowledge and engineering.

believe that only two trusts of anv special importai.ee organized to control business interests centering exdnsi re y in the south has ever been formed and both of them have l>een practically de feated by the determination and enter prise of southern people while of trusts organized in other sections we cannot recall the defeat of anv sin i gle one of note the american cotton oil trust an i offshoot of the great standard oil co j was organized to monopolize the cotton seed-oil businesss before the public j was aware of what was being done j this trust had secured the control i of almost every first class cotton teed oil mill in the south and i:s monopoly seemed complete like the standard oil co in pennsylvania the american cotton oil trust was bent upon an absolute control of every branch of the trade and backed by the vast wealth of its parent it looked to many as though it was useless to fight it ' the south however did not so regard the j matter and just when its control seemed most absolute and a light agiinst it most hopeless a young car olinian who had made a wide reputa tion as an engineer planned and organ ized in connection with his friends a 5,000,000 company to build independ ent oil mills w'ithin a few months \ from its formation this company had j eight of the best cotton oil mitts ever : built in full operation located at points where they could best compete with the mills of the trust the mo nopoly was broken and the south was saved from the danger of having this '< i great industry controlled by one com pany which could force prices of seed down and oil up at its own good pleas ore millions of dollars were saved to j the planters by this successful tight \ against the first great trust which j threatened southern prosperity the jute bagging trust was so skill | fully p aimed and sj ably managed that lot until the cotton crop was be ; ginning to move was its existence realized its organizers felt safe they knew that the cotton n.u-t lv bag^e.l promptly and sent to market and they boasted of what they wore going to do in the way of advancing prices to attempt to fight this trust by bringing out a substitute for jute bagging in time for the present crop was apparently worse than use less it would only lead to iel.iy in shipping cotton and to still higher prices for bagging planters were ad vised to submit with the best grace possible this year in hopes that before another season rolled around a remedy for the evil would have been found this advice however wad not taken instead of that the whole s uth was beet upon defeating the k trust at the vy start and many have been the devices brought out to accomplish it practically the trust is dead substitutes even better than jute have been found as already known to our readers the lane mills of new orleans ami the acme manufacturing co have produced bagging one from loiv grade cottou and one from pine straw which meet all the requirements and which are destined to supplant jute bagging night and day the mills will run to meet the demand for thi bagging and thus from what seehrefi a curse has sprung the blessing of two new indus tries in the south which will add sev eral million dollars a year to southern prosperity in these facts can be seen th ■spirit of energy and enterprise which is building up the south and planting new industries everywhere

this country is established and regulated in the liverpool cotton market and in dw'ng that the sup posed cost of the wrappings of the cot ton is taken from the jrice which is aj i nndersti n i it about one-sixteenth for instance a bale is supposed to weigh 450 jn unils the weigh of the heaviest bagging an 1 ties used in bail ing cotton will weigh about une-six tenth of that am uint that is seven yards bugging weighing 2k pound to the yard amounts to 15 pounds six six tits two pounds p.-i tie is twelve pounds these two amount together aggregate 73 pounds the sixteenth of 450 is jsi hence it will be seen that all hl6 material used in bailing cotton that weighs irs than twenty-eight pounds per i>:i is that much additional loss lo the producer the writer of this article is a farmer and has been cognizant of these facts for years and has never used bagging weighing less than 2 pounds per yard when it could be produced my chief object in calling attention to these f cts is the hope that while the subject is being so thoroughly agi tated some uniform weight and stan dard for covering co ton may be agreed npon by the cotto.i producers through out the cotton belt it should be done for it behooves us to save in everv par ticular in which we can under the present system of arrangement the ad ditional loss to to the cotton prduccrs of the south will not aggregate annu ally less than eighteen million pounds cotton probably twenty-five million pounds which reduced to a money value will sun unit to a loss of not less than sl,80o,0c0 annually probably ami very possibly 2,000,000 this additional loss alluded to is the result of using a bugging weighing lett than that calculated in the tare taken oil by the liverpool merchants the great bulk of the bagging used weigli ing less than two pounds per yard i uder the present different organiza tions of the fanners throughout the south it would seem to be not a very difficult matter t i have a uniform weight for all bugging or covering used for bailing eott n and whv not have that southern production from the cottou stalks for instance ay beginning at once arrangements might lie made for the next crop if the south should be succesful in producing a covering for bailing their cotton or even regulating the weight the trust will have worked a blessing instead of otherwise upon us john uomx.son < oiuinissiouur a giant couple

Yo! It's the burial ground sound, Dunn!
It's real out here
Staten Island puttin chills in y'all niggas
Forever in it.. yo
[Verse 1: Cappadonna]
My devastating hot '97 mentality
Keep me on point for my four-digit salary
Heavyweight lyric never lost one calorie
I'm soon to be seen on the TV screen
Gambino Cappaccino to the Afro Sheen
Stay black, where I'm at, high road to rap council
Splash love to Wu in a orderly tonsil
Never limit to the diction, cause chaos to mixin
Brutalize a sound check, ripple through the intermission
Rap's under siege, held tight like a squeeze
Forced in the world 'Donna nuclear freeze
Doing damage to the wannabe Flip Mode and Def Squad
Ruckus a whirlpool in the rap entourage
If you dare to test thirty-six, chambers of strangers
Not word of mouth, or song, real wigs might peel
Livin large and in charge branch out Bon Voyage
Twenty-four diamond government named God
Alias Daryl Hill bring thugs back to kill
Circle around my son, Daryl Jr. never eatin lard
Auntie Dauntie sixteen holdin me down
AIDS of rap music may be contagious to sound
Verbal the slang pushed back to create pronoun
Method forcin J-Love to Bring the Pain from underground
Realizin food for thought is self-compromising
Shaolin cut the crack into a triple-O sizin
Blue do what he do to keep that currency risin
Hopin I catch a deal so we can catch a four-wheel
Instead of catchin bodies, niggas not keepin it real
I dirt bomb niggas that steal cake from stores
That's my type of niggas I be wanting on my tours
Can't help it, my styles stay fat like Roseanne
Ruckus in the square I stay rough like the Clan
Panther on my arm, pen and pad in my hand
Punk motherfuckers better beware of the Shaolin
Defy interactive project Children of the Corn
Gats on my man keep em bustin till ya gone
Style so ancient it sparks just like the unicorn
Donna come through everyday my uniform
Changes and switches, I came to make ladies out of bitches
Crackhead niggas get stitches
So what up with that kid, danger when I attack, kid
Watch how the slang hits you just like a bat, kid
Form another pyramid, look how we slid
All over Park Hill, Stapleton politic
On a twenty dollar bill all in it together
You can't fuck with the stormy weather, yaknahmean?
[Hook x4: Ghostface Killah]
To the year Born God all the Gods strike hard
Fast from the swine hold down your boulevard
Father-U the C-Cipher, start the revolution
Middle finger in the air, for slang prostitution

Seriously, I am alive and well!
School ends for 2 of my dudes today and then hopefully my Homeschool Dude will be done either today or tomorrow.
Ready for summer...or am I???
I still do not have anything on my walls...nothing new to show in my home. I do have one set of curtains done, I need to take pictures soon. I really need someone to hold my hand to decorate my house! I don't know why it is being so overwhelming to me... I have been Pinning my Heart out on Pinterest {follow me!!} with so many wonderful ideas and now I will just have to go for it. I am hoping that this summer will give me the time to focus on making these walls into our home. We do not have any big vacations planned...more of a stay-cation summer.
{We now have wood blinds -no more tablecloth curtains-, new gutters and a fence...so I guess you can say that I have been doing a few things around the house.}
{We now have wood blinds -no more tablecloth curtains-, new gutters and a fence...so I guess you can say that I have been doing a few things around the house.}
Here are a couple of pictures of projects that I have made for Canvas Corp, just to have at least something happening on my blog.
I would love to be more creative when wrapping presents for loved ones instead of my ol' stand-by of a bag with tissue...which is great...but I would love to get something like these: {I wouldn't care if the box was empty even...I just like the wrapping!}
This morning Sam saw his name on this box and started to open it...he was sad to find out it was just a fake present...poor guy!! He should get something for me using his name on it, right!!
I love cardmaking...do you want to know the main reason why I do? They are quick and instant creating that doesn't take hours to do!!! I just love all of the Canvas Corp products!
Coral and Navy = Delish!
Enjoy your day!!
