Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park is soliciting bids for hay harvesting permits for three historic fields located on the Chickamauga Battlefield. The Park has three parcels: North Dyer, South Dyer; and West Dyer Fields; consisting of approximately 149 acres of hay fields that are open for agricultural leasing.
Local farmers are invited to pick up a bid packet at the Chickamauga Battlefield Visitor Center and visually inspect the three parcels that are available.
Agriculture Land Use Permits allow farmers to harvest the hay from Park lands and use it for livestock feed or sell it. The hay lease program helps the Park maintain these fields by having them cut at least once per year. The Dyer Field permits will be issued for a period of five years; therefore they will not expire until 2018. Bid forms need to be turned in to the Park by 3 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 28.
For more information about the Park's Agricultural Land Use Program, please contact Jim Szyjkowski, chief of Resource Management at the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park, 752-5213 x 121.

During the great California gold rush, early prospectors sifted through rocks and streams in the hopes of finding a fortune. But bigger hauls were often claimed by going below the surface and digging deeply into mines, where a treasure trove of gold lay waiting to be unearthed. The gold rush may be ancient history, but there's still potential treasure to be tapped--and crises that can be prevented too-by companies that are willing to delve deep into their dark data.

We have no relationship... I never saw him. I never spoke to him! Sutil admits strained friendship with Hamilton as German is handed second chance by Force India
Adrian Sutil claims to have learned the error of his ways and insists he is worthy of his second chance with Force India.
After weeks of speculation regarding the second-seat vacancy with the Silverstone-based marque, Sutil was finally given the nod today 15 months after he was axed by the team.
Force India were adamant Sutil's departure was nothing to do with an impending court case at the time as the 30-year-old faced charges of causing grievous bodily harm.
Back on track: Adrian Sutil has re-signed for Force India ahead of the upcoming campaign
Sutil was eventually convicted of
assaulting Lotus executive Eric Lux with a champagne glass during an
incident in a Shanghai nightclub after the 2011 Chinese Grand Prix.
A German court handed Sutil an 18-month suspended sentence along with a fine of £167,000.
Sutil has also confirmed the complete breakdown in his friendship with Lewis Hamilton.
Hamilton was at the club on the night of the Lux incident, but chose not to testify in court.
Sutil said: 'I'm not in contact with
him any more so we have no relationship at the moment. I've not seen
him, I've not spoken to him. 'For sure I will meet up with him, but I
don't know what will happen.'
No relationship: Hamilton, pictured earlier this week with popstar girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger, was expected to testify for Sutil
After a year on the sidelines,
following an initial five-season stint in F1, Sutil again partners Paul
di Resta after what team principal Vijay Mallya described as 'a close
call' between the German and Jules Bianchi in the fight for the last
remaining seat in F1. Speaking at the final pre-season test at
Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya,
Sutil added: 'Everyone can make
mistakes in life. 'If you never make mistakes you will never grow. I
don't think there is a single person here who never made a mistake.
'My one was maybe a different one and was very public. There are others probably even worse, but no one talks about them.
'Whenever someone does something
wrong I always give them the opportunity to show they are still a good
person. I will give them a second chance. I see it being very similar
'Of course it is a tough business, but no one is perfect and that is why life is an adventure.'
Reunion: Sutil will partner British star Paul Di Resta at Force India this season
For Sutil, with 90 grands prix behind
him - 73 with Force India and 17 for the team's former incarnation as
Spyker - he feels this is an opportunity to prove a point on track.
'Having been away from the sport, I'm
even more determined to achieve my goals in Formula One,' said Sutil,
whose best finish came with a fourth at the 2009 Italian Grand Prix.
'We are still a small team, but I am sure we can have a very good season. My targets are very high. "I am not here to race for fifth or sixth position. I want to go on the podium. I want to win in the future and be one of the best drivers in the world in F1.'
Over the rainbow: Lewis Hamilton takes to the track on Thursday in the damp conditions at Barcelona
Lewis Hamilton set the pace in this morning's rain-hit final pre-season test in Barcelona.
The Mercedes driver posted the fastest lap ahead of Felipe Massa's Ferrari and put together a series of laps which were two seconds quicker than any other driver.
The four-day test in Barcelona provides all teams with the final chance to test their challengers before the new season begins in Melbourne on March 17.
Explaining his reasoning behind re-hiring Sutil, Mallya said: 'We felt Adrian's experience and historic links to the team gave him the edge. "If he can rediscover the exceptional form he showed in the second half of 2011, I'm confident we can pick up where we left off at the end of 2012.'
However, the team's reserve role
remains up in the air, with question marks now lingering over the
snubbed Bianchi who formerly occupied the post.
Mallya added: 'As for Jules, he has impressed us enormously with his speed and work ethic, and I'm hopeful we can continue working with him this year to help him develop into a future grand prix driver.'

Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY.PA) (Paris:DSY), the 3DEXPERIENCE Company, world leader in 3D design software, 3D Digital Mock Up and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions, today announced that Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC), a world leader in the design, manufacture and service of aircraft engines, has selected the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to run its enterprise integrated product management process. A longtime customer of Dassault Systèmes' design authoring and collaboration applications, P&WC has started "Phase One" of its enterprise PLM evolution. The focus of Phase One is on improving operational excellence, integrated process planning, quality and requirements management.
"In the end, this is about transforming our business and improving our customers' experience. Every second, a P&WC-powered airplane takes off or lands somewhere in the world and our goal is to ensure the highest quality, best service cost, and overall product value for those customers. Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform fits perfectly into that vision of a quality product and customer experience," said Walter Di Bartolomeo, vice president, Productivity & Engineering, Pratt & Whitney Canada. "From both an operational perspective, as well as a product value perspective, we see that implementing the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is good for the business. ENOVIA applications give us the ability to be more effective. And that gives us the capacity, capability and affordability to go and reinvest in new products and new services."
Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform and its associated ENOVIA applications were successfully benchmarked against various other solutions and competitors. The enterprise platform and its openness to Pratt & Whitney Canada's heterogeneous solution environment, including SAP and Microsoft Dynamics, featured highly in the final decision, as well as Pratt & Whitney Canada's close working partnership with Dassault Systèmes.
In parallel with Phase One, P&WC has been working to define a blueprint for the next phase of PLM in a true enterprise-wide business transformation.
"We're excited to be part of P&WC's successful deployment of Phase One. But that's just Phase One. We are committed to ensuring the success of ALL future phases in P&WC's strategic integrated product management process evolution," said Sylvain Laurent, executive vice president, Business Transformation, Dassault Systèmes.
"3DEXPERIENCE is about addressing complexity, helping our customers, such as Pratt & Whitney Canada, reinvent their business processes and transform the way work is done on a day to day basis. Our 3DEXPERIENCE platform is designed to allow a customer to use its entire set of data throughout enterprise processes, to make the right decisions for its business," said Monica Menghini, executive vice president, Industry and Marketing, Dassault Systèmes. "As with every industry solution experience Dassault Systèmes creates, it is, at the end of the day, about enabling a dramatic improvement in the quality of our customer's product experience."

Software development, like engineering, is a craft that requires the application of creative approaches to solve problems given a wide range of constraints. However, while engineering design may be craftwork, the production of most designed objects relies on a standardized and automated manufacturing process. By contrast, much of what's typically involved when moving an application from prototype to production and, indeed, maintaining the application through its lifecycle remains craftwork.

In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Gordon Haff, Red Hat Cloud Product Strategist, will discuss how a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) like Red Hat OpenShift can bring industrialization to the development and deployment of applications. By abstracting irrelevant details and automating key activities, a PaaS can do for software development productivity and quality what assembly line innovations did for manufacturing.

It's easy to assume that your app will run on a fast and reliable network. The reality for your app's users, though, is often a slow, unreliable network with spotty coverage. What happens when the network doesn't work, or when the device is in airplane mode? You get unhappy, frustrated users. An offline-first app is an app that works, without error, when there is no network connection.

PowerSportsMax - GK F007 110cc Go Kart
- Feb 06, 2013

- 2 comments
Ordered by grandchildren (age 7)a GoKart for Christmas.Rode at most 20 minutes.
A part underneath broke in half. Called Co. to return and get a new Go Kart. They said they could not do that.
They replaced the part after we sent pictures. My son put the part on but says, where it is, it will break again probably. The Go Kart was rode another 20 to 30 minutes and would not run. My son would get it started and it would run a few minutes and stall.
This continued so many times that my son put it up. I have been talking to this company since Christmas and it is Feb 5th. They will offer to have their repair man look at it but I would have to pay the shipping. At one point they told me if it came back, they would have to charge a restock fee because the Go Kart was used.
I tried to tell them it was not used. We can't get it to run long enough to use it. I even offered to buy a higher cost Go Kart and pay the difference if they would take this one back. By this time, it was a safety issue with us to put our children on the Go Kart.
These people were rude, a guy named Felix was really rude. Jose was not rude, but would not help me. Told me to call a John at the factory. I did and John said he could not help me, he was only a mechanic.
I did not buy it from the factory, I bought it from PowersportsMax. I even paid extra for the Go Kart to my son's house and that did not happed. They left it at a local business and that business charged to bring to my son's house. My son did not have anything to haul it in.
This has been a nightmare and the worst Company that I have ever dealt with and I am 70 years old. I would never buy anything from them again and if you are reading this, you would be wise not to buy. My son is going to borrow a trailor and take the Go Kart to a mechanic in Madison TN to look at it at $87.00 per hour and see if he can find out what is wrong with it. My son had a local mechanic looked at it and he could not figure it out.
Said just a fluk, lemon. Needs to be returned for another one. Well, that won't happen. I don't plan to call them again.
Wasting my time and getting upset for nothing. I have two very disappointed grandchildren. Never, Never order anything from these people.
Once they get your money, they are done with you.Report

Is Aung San Suu Kyi guilty of Islamophobia?
Founder of the Free Burma Coalition presents his case
Picture: Al Jazeera/AFP
November 5, 2013
Aung San Suu Kyi, one of the contemporary world's most celebrated icons of human rights, non-violence and reconciliation, crossed the line into Myanmar's world of "Buddhist" Islamophobia. Disturbingly, on BBC Radio Four's flagship programme, "Today", she characterised the waves of organised violence and Nazi-like hate campaigns currently being committed by her fellow Buddhists - the lay public and clergy alike - as violence of two equal sides, claiming that Burmese Buddhists live in the perceived fear of the rise of great Muslim power worldwide.
As a revered dissident, Aung San Suu Kyi's idea of 'freedom from fear' inspired millions both in Myanmar and world-wide. I think she herself has succumbed to a different type of fear, namely Islamophobia.
Far from recent waves of violence being horizontal communal violence, the truth is that the country's Rohingya Muslims - numbering 1.3 million out of the country's 60 million people - have been the subject of a slowly unfolding genocide. This is the conclusion I have drawn from a three-year study that I have just completed with a researcher colleague at the London-based Equal Rights Trust.
In February 1978, the military-controlled state launched its first large-scale operation in Arakan State (now known as Rakhine) in western Myanmar. This first exodus of an estimated 240,000 into neighbouring Bangladesh, took place long before the West's "war on terror" against "radical Islam." The Oxford-educated Nobel Peace Prize laureate whom the majority of Burmese, including Muslims, call "Mother Suu" can only be using what she calls the "great rise of Muslim power" as a convenient excuse.

David McNally Monsters of the Market: Zombies Vampires and Global Capitalism Haymarket Books
Reviewed by Bruciebaby
This year's winner of the Issac Deutcher award is David McNally for his book 'Monsters of the Market: Zombies Vampires and Global Capitalism'. The award is for the book `which exemplifies the best and most innovative new writing in or about the Marxist tradition'. There have been some excellent winners in the past, G. de Ste Croix's 'The Class Struggle in the Ancient Greek World' in 1982 and Francis Wheen's tidy wee biography of Karl Marx in 1999. There have also been some real howlers so how does Monsters fare?
McNally tells us he seeks `to track the several genres of monster stories to tell us about key symbolic registers in which the experience of capitalist commodification is felt, experienced and resisted'. In three sprawling chapters McNally addresses:
Dissecting the Labouring Body: Frankenstein, Political Anatomy and the Rise of Capitalism;
Marx's Monsters : Vampire-Capital and the Nightmare-World of Late Capitalism; and
African Vampires in the Age of Globalisation.
This genre approach entails a rereading of Marx's Capital seen here mainly as a `mystery-narrative that seeks out the hidden spaces in which bodies are injured and maimed by capital.' In alliance with the `fantastic' it equips `critical theory' with `dialectical optics' allowing for `the reading of capitalist occult practices in the same way psychoanalysis interprets dreams'. `Decoding subversive knowledge' promises `radical insights and transformative energies' whereby `shock effects illuminate the `monstrous dislocations at the heart of commodified existence'.
Health warning! `Critical theory' is the product of the notorious `Frankfurt School' which donned the mantle of `Western' or `Humanistic Marxism' on fleeing the Nazis in the 1930's. Adherents included Max Horkheimer, Theodore Adorno and Herbert Marcuse et al. Monsters is littered with references from this pessimistic, disillusioned and demoralised current of radical middle class thought. Bitterly hostile to the ideas of genuine Marxism they infested western universities in the 1960's and 1970's banefully influencing the student movement. Writing off the working class they argued no real objective economic basis existed for socialism and that struggle for social change lay on the cultural or psychological level.The literature of this school excelled in its scatter-brained, whacko, impenetrable gibberish. McNally draws on these `traditions'.
We begin with gore. Specifically the gallows and the surgeon's dissection table in 17th century Europe and 18th century England. I'm disappointed because there really isn't that much gore but there is another bugbear.He argues that anatomy and dissection were means of oppression and a `symbolic register' of ruling class power over the dispossessed. This expressed, in symbolic form, the rise of early capitalist social relations where the very bodies of the working class were turned into commodities. Maybe but he makes the classic slip of using interpretation of historical and cultural examples to support his argument. This is the key fault of his, very 1970's, Freudian dream interpretation shock effects `method'.
For example he `analyses' a superb 1632 painting by Rembrandt of the public dissection of Mr Kindt a thief, 'The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicholaes Tulp' and writes:
`Tulp grasps a tool (a forceps) with which he manipulates the flexorum digitorum muscles of Kindt's left hand. Indeed, Tulp can be seen pulling on these muscles, causing the corpse's fingers to curl in imitation of his own. We have here, I want to suggest, a portrayal of the paradigmatic relationship between capital and wage-labour.'
You have got to be kidding me?! In the painting the skinless fingers, with the exception of a lifeless pinky, are just about as straight as a die! A viewer could just as easily suggest that Dr Tulp is demonstrating how the tendons of the arm work the digits? So McNally, I want to suggest, is havering a load of hokum. Speculative interpretations like this, with wildly exaggerated claims that turn out to be very silly indeed, always raise an eyebrow amongst serious historians. I even found myself giggling at some of McNally's absurd attempts to demonstrate his allegedly profound insights.
For instance in examining a 1751 woodcut of the dissection of a murderer, 'The Reward for Cruelty' by the English artist Hogarth, there is a cauldron in which skulls and bones are being boiled clean. McNally claims:
`Here is our clearest indication that a ritual of social magic is being enacted, a reminder that public anatomy is intended not only to punish and terrorise, but also to exorcise ruling-class anxieties '
Here is the clearest indication of a professor of political `science' with rather lurid deductive powers and too much time on his hands. On Mary Shelly's Frankenstein he says `the reader is given enormous interpretative range' allowing for `multiple analytical frames-feminist, psychoanalytical, post-colonial, Marxist.' In other words Frankenstein can mean literally anything to anybody. This must be the case for Capital?
Moving onto Marx we are told that in Capital `Gothic imagery, overtly dramatic construction. Rather than stylistic ornamentations, these features are, I insist, essential aspects of Marx's text, integral means for the expression of his core theoretical arguments.'
Marx did indeed use his formidable knowledge of literature to get his message across. He alludes to mythology and the supernatural supra-sensible. This includes vampires, werewolves and spectres by way of analogy in order to express the essence of capitalism as a monstrous parasitic social relation and not as a natural form of social production.
Yet this aspect of Marx has been written about for decades, including in a 1977 winner of the same prize, 'Marx and World Literature' by S.S. Pawker. So McNally's pretentions to originality are a bit self-indulgent.Having reread Capital in preparation for `Monsters', surely McNally grasps the `core theoretical arguments' right? There is nothing `original' he says in observing that Marx saw in commodities a contradictory unity of use- value and exchange-value. Wrong! As Marx pointed out commodities have use-value and VALUE. Exchange-value only manifests itself in relation to the process of exchange when one commodity is compared to another, it never has this form when `looked at in isolation' (Marx Capital Vol I p177).
Blundering over the concept of `intrinsic value' perhaps indicates a re-rereading of the whole of Capital, as a scientific work, is necessary instead of scouring the text of Volume one in search of Nosferatu? If McNally fails to properly understand value how on earth are his musings on the fetishism of commodities and abstract labour to be taken seriously?
Fetishism and social vampirism are basic indispensable concepts for understanding Capital. McNally stretches these concepts a very very long way to engage in vacuous polemics against dead postmodernists. On the other hand he claims his `critical theory of value', whatever that is, is capable of illuminating the `hidden recesses of capitalist social life.'
Modern capitalism is portrayed as vampire capital sucking the very life out of zombie labour and financialisation is equated with alchemy. Occasionally the author shape-shifts into a very ordinary writer on finance capital then morphs back into an explorer of `occult practices'. This includes a case study on the collapse of Enron that happened eleven years ago, all mildly interesting but very dated.
In Sub-Saharan Africa shock effects reach their apogee. After giving a good account of how imperialism is looting the continent he focusses on yep, witchcraft, voodoo and more zombies all spiced up with a dash of finance capital and cannibalism. It's as if the organised African working class were a ghost. Strange as McNally's critical theory is supposed to be able to see the unseen? Can it be possible that he is a zombie?
As for resisting this capitalist regime of monstrosity one would expect a concluding clarion call for a mass zombie uprising? Not at all and `moments of resistance' take such forms as feminist poets being inspired on reading Capital or the protest zombie jazz of Thelonious Monk, excruciatingly analysed in relation to Hegel's 'Phenomenology of Spirit'? The words `socialism', `revolution' and `strike' don't even appear in the index. Workers are all zombies anyway even if organised in zombie unions.
Until the working class wake up and cease to be zombies argues McNally `monstrous utopia lives on in stories, dreams, music, art and moments of resistance that prefigure the grotesque movements through which the collective labourer throws off its zombified state in favour of something new, frightening and beautiful.'
For pessimistic neo-`Marxist' Freudian critical scribblers like McNally the socialist revolution is a `grotesque movement' which is `frightening'. Lots of comfortable professional academics get the willies when class conscious workers decide to rise up out of the shadows against capitalism.
Luv a duck! This is an absolute howler. If you are thinking about reading this horror story don't forget to order a set of dialectical optics but be afraid, yes very afraid, of the price!

Excellent 4.4 /5 from 26 reviews
The room was lovely and the view of the lake was incredible, well worth the upgrade. The staff seemed a little young and service needs some improvements, but overall service was fine. food was okay, the location is accessible but not much in surrounding area, but the views and the pools along the lake is awesomeeeee. great spot to start or end your journey to Alleppy or Kochi.
Tucked away from the busy Cochin life. Don't expect that you can walk out, a ride is a must to get to and from this property. Staff was great, always helpful and courteous. Nice and green with a lot of fauna with a great view of the lake with early morning fishing activity that is relaxing to watch. The food choices are essentially limited to 2 restaurants. The buffet was good but the menu got boring as we stayed for 4 days. Has a great pool which is well maintained. Overall a place to relax and enjoy some quiet time. Would go there again for the same.
This is a five star hotel. Do not expect anything close by this place. Its a place to relax and enjoy the resort.
Absolutely mind blowing, loved every minute of my 5 days here. The staff are very tactful, Try the mexican resteraunt but make sure you ask for it mild as they make it very spicy. The main resteraunt is amazing and offers a huge variety of international cuisine and we enjoyed dining there everyday. We met the Junior sous chef and he was very educational and helpful teaching us new things about the best things to eat in kerala. We loved our stay and will be back, this place is definately 5 stars. The pool is incredible and the pool guy brings you pool towels all the time and the coctails are great. the food and drinks are overpriced so we would hope it can be made more affordable and then people will be able to stay longer there
Pleasant hotel but a bit remote from Kochi centre (30 mins) and airport (1 hour).

Carnival Pride Cruise Review by quiltlady: Carnival Pride - Mexican Riviera
Overall Member Rating
Carnival Pride - Mexican Riviera
Destination: Mexican Riviera
Embarkation: Los Angeles
We just returned from the Mexican Riviera on the Pride and wanted to say our 2 cents. We got to the port approximately 12:30 and within one hour we were onboard and in our cabins, the lines were long, but moved along. Maybe I'm naive, but I expect when you are trying to put 2000 people or so onto a ship, there WILL BE lines. Just expect it.
We were impressed with the cleanliness of the ship. The food in the dining room was first rate, and our waiter and assistant were excellent. Comane and Phillip.
One of our favorite parts of cruising are the activities onboard. We do as many as possible, and we felt that there were plenty of offerings to keep us busy. There was a lot of bingo, and art auctions, we choose not to go to those, but have no problem with the fact that they exist.
Our only complaints, and they were few, were with our cabin steward. It took a while for the message that we needed our glasses replaced, and for some reason we didn't get mints on More our pillows the first and last night of the cruise. Maybe that's just the routine. It wasn't that we felt neglected, but it didn't seem that they went that extra mile that so many do. Certainly wasn't a big deal though.
As I read on someone else's review, the picture taking is interminable. We just walked by them many times, which we found wasn't that difficult. But in Puerto Vallarta they had four or five photo ops to race through, the gauntlet got harder to run.
Debarkation was the usual debarkation. We were the next to the last color called, as we had driven to the port. But were in our car and heading home by 10:15.
Over all we had a wonderful time, and feel that cruising is what you make of it. We love it, and try to find the good in every ship we go on. Enjoy. Less

Taking Flight: Jets Sell Out Final Season At Giants Stadium
Published September 3, 2009
The Jets have finally sold out their last season at Giants Stadium, after launching their first-ever marketing campaign and half-season tickets. Despite a long waiting list, the Jets had difficulty selling out in part because they lost a number of fans who were upset with the prices for the new stadium opening next year. The down economy also hit the club hard. Giants Stadium capacity is 80,242. The Giants have long been sold out for the '09 season. The Jets expect their 40,000 non-premium-seat PSLs and the 27,000 seats available without PSLs in the new stadium to sell out by the end of the year, and their 10,000 premium-seat PSLs by the start of the '10 season. The team's difficulties selling out had become something of a symbol of the challenges NFL clubs have faced. Up to 12 teams could face TV blackouts this season, up from three last year. Home games are blacked out locally if they are not sold out within 72 hours of game time.
