Fungi such as Beauveria bassiana, Isaria fumosorosea, Metarhizium brunneum are pathogenic to mites and insects and are primarily used for pest management. Some of these are known to endophytically colonize plants and offer protection against arthropod pests feeding on those plants. Some studies have indicated that entomopathogenic fungi can also provide protection against plant pathogens.
In an effort to explore the endophytic potential of entomopathogenic fungi for strawberry pest management, studies were conducted in 2010 using commercial and California isolates of B. bassiana and M. brunneum where B. bassiana successfully colonized strawberry plants and persisted for up to 9 weeks in various plant tissues. Observations during this study suggested that endophytic entomopathogenic fungi could be aiding in plant health probably through mycorrhizal activity by improving water and nutrient absorption. Based on these observations, a small study was conducted to evaluate the impact of B. bassiana on strawberry plant health in comparison with a commercial product intended to promote plant growth, health, and yield.
This study was conducted in collaboration with Los Angeles County Pitchess Detention Center where inmates assisted in taking care of the plants and collecting data. As a part of the MERIT (Maximising Education Reaching Individual Transformation) Masters program, some inmates were selected to participate in this project. Since this was the first project in such collaboration, a simple experiment was designed for easy execution and data collection.
Treatments included i) Untreated control, ii) HYTA – which contains soil-based microorganisms that enhance nitrogen absorption, solubilize nutrients, and build soil organic matter, and iii) B. bassiana (Mycotrol –O). Transplants of the strawberry variety Monterey were treated by applying HYTA or B. bassiana to the root system in transplant treys. Planting was done 48 hours after treatment in 20X5X2' raised beds. Plants were regularly watered and fertilized with fish emulsion. Plant health was monitored for about three months starting from 4 weeks after planting. Plants were periodically observed and their health was rated on a scale of 0-5 where 0= dead, 1=weak, 2 and 3=moderate, 4=good, and 5=very good.

Except for a few aphids on some plants, the trial did not have any pest infestations. Plants treated with B. bassiana were rated higher than untreated control or those treated with HYTA throughout the observation period although differences were not statistically significant on all observations dates. While the plant health rating ranged from 2.3 to 3.0 for untreated control, it was between 2.6 and 3.5 for those treated with HYTA and 2.9 to 4.1 for those treated with B. bassiana. The average seasonal health rating was 2.8, 3.2, and 3.6 for untreated, HYTA, and B. bassiana, respectively. Fruit yield could not be monitored due to some technical difficulties.

Beneficial microorganisms establish symbiotic relationship with plants and serve as extended root system improving the absorption of nutrients and moisture. By colonizing the roots and other plant tissues, they can also provide protection against plant pathogens. Several commercial formulations of fungus and bacteria based beneficial organisms are currently available for use on various crops. This preliminary study demonstrates that B. bassiana promotes plant health and can play an important role in crop production in addition to the primary role of pest management. Additional studies can further explore the potential of entomopathogenic fungi in promoting plant growth and improving yield as well as providing protection against pests and diseases.
Adrianne Ferree, Assistant Director, Jail Enterprises Unit collaborated in this project with the support of Chief Alex Yim. One of the two inmates who participated in this project took an online Plant Science course and used this study as his class project. He intends to pursue agronomy after his release. It is a great experience for me to be involved in the MERIT Masters program and introduce agricultural research to the inmates.

New UC short-day variety Benicia (Photo by Surendra Dara)
Different species of spider mites attack strawberry plants. Spider mites feed on the underside of the leaves, scrape the tissue, and suck the plant juices. As a result, corresponding area on the upper leaf surface initially shows yellow spots. As the damage advances, these spots expand and gradually turn into brownish, dry patches of dead plant tissue.

Spider mite damage symptom in Benicia, the new short-day (June-bearing) cultivar from University of California, seems to be different compared to other varieties. While the upper leaf surface corresponding to the damaged lower surface shows initial yellow discoloration even at high mite densities in varieties such as Albion or San Andreas, it turns dark purple in Benicia even at low to moderate mite densities. Physiological response of Benicia to mite damage probably contributes to this unique symptom. Such a discoloration can be useful for early and easy detection of spider mite infestations.

Pallidosis-related decline or pallidosis disease of strawberries is a viral disease that appeared in several fields in the Santa Maria area early this year. It is caused by a variety or viruses transmitted by insect vectors such as greenhouse whitefly, strawberry aphid, and thrips and other sources such as pollen, seed (not in the fruit production fields), and nematodes. In addition to the routinely present strawberry aphids and thrips, increasing populations of greenhouse whitefly in strawberry fields contribute to the spread of the disease. Severity of the symptoms varies depending on the strawberry cultivar, level of viral infection, and type of virus involved.
Good agricultural practices to obtain clean transplants, maintain and promote plant health, monitor and manage insect vectors are important to address the disease issue. Since virus does not remain for too long in whiteflies, maintaining a host-free period of at least one month can reduce the risk of disease transmission by whiteflies which are occurring in large numbers in the recent years. Timely disposal or crop residue, avoiding second-year crop, and effective and timely management of whiteflies to prevent their spread to new plantings are among recommended practices to address pallidosis disease.
Here is a short video to provide a quick overview of the disease.

Compared to the number of queries I received last year, it has been fairly quiet about the Bagrada bug infestations. Here is a brief update on the assays I conducted with some non-chemical control options and a short video I made to describe the biology, damage, and control of this pest.
Laboratory assays were conducted using various non-chemical pesticides that included entomopathogenic fungi, bacterial metabolites, pyrethrins, insecticidal soap, and essential oils. Some of these may not have OMRI certification and these are only preliminary experimental results. Products were used at field application rates. Broccoli florets were treated with respective treatment materials and adult Bagrada bugs were released. Assays were repeated three times. Due to the lack of a laboratory colony of Bagrada bugs, additional assays could not be conducted to evaluate more control options.

Bagrada bug video
A short video was made to provide a quick overview about the Bagrada bug, its host range, life cycle, identification, damage symptoms, and control options. While my previous articles and other resources provide several details, this video is intended to summarize basic information in less than 3 minutes. Several people confuse harlequin bugs with Bagrada bugs and this video helps them compare these two species and see the difference.
A picture is worth a thousand words, but these days a short video is worth several pictures.

Greenhouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum) is the predominant species of whiteflies on strawberries in the Central Coast. What used to be a pest causing yield loss through direct damage has now emerged as a vector of a devastating viral disease called pallidosis-related decline of strawberries.
In addition to strawberries, greenhouse whiteflies have a wide host range that includes important commodities such as avocados, caneberries, grapes, lettuces, peppers, tomatoes, and ornamentals grown in the Central Coast. All these crops serve as a source of infestation to each other and increased the threat of whiteflies not only to agricultural fields, but also to nurseries, and home gardens.
Agricultural Commissioners' offices in both Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties and UCCE office received calls this year from strawberry growers, nursery producers, and the ornamental industry to address the whitefly issue. In response to this issue, I have increased the outreach efforts about whiteflies, their feeding damage, and disease vectoring potential through extension meetings and publications since January, 2013.
Some fields in the Santa Maria and other areas which suffered from heavy whitefly infestations early in the production season later developed symptoms of pallidosis-related decline. Diagnostic tests conducted by CDFA and USDA laboratories in Salinas and Corvallis (Oregon) identified multiple viruses that cause the decline. Extent of infection varied from mild disease symptoms in some fields to total dieback. Corresponding yield loss also varied registering up to 65% reduction in some fields. Based the feedback received from various sources pallidosis-like symptoms are seen in strawberry cultivars from both public and private breeding programs.
A good understanding of the pest and the disease it vectors is essential for effective management.
Greenhouse whitefly:
Whiteflies get their name from white wings. Greenhouse whitefly is a small (1 mm long) insect with delicate, white, powdery wax covered wings. They deposit pale yellowish green eggs on the lower side of the leaf. Eggs are elongated and attached to the leaf with a short pedicel. Eggs turn dark as they mature. Greenhouse whiteflies have four nymphal instars which are oval, flat, and often semitransparent. Careful observation through a hand lens is necessary to detect their presence. First instar nymphs that emerge from the eggs are called crawlers which move around in search of an ideal feeding site on the leaf. Later instars are immobile. Fourth instar nymphs have red eyes and long, waxy filaments and are referred to as pupae.
Life cycle of greenhouse whitefly. Yellowish green eggs darken as they mature. Nymphs go through four instars which are flat and semitransparent. Fourth instar nymph (empty case after adult emergence seen above) has long filaments, which are characteristic of greenhouse whitefly. Adults have yellowish body and membranous wings covered with white, waxy substance. Photos by Surendra Dara and Jack Kelly Clark (4th instar)
Pallidosis-related decline:
This is a viral disease caused by a complex of viruses transmitted by whiteflies, aphids, thrips, pollen, nematodes, seed, fungus, and unknown sources (Martin and Tzanetakis, 2006). Disease occurs only when one of the whitefly transmitted viruses along with one of the other viruses is present in the plant. Actual mechanism of infection and the synergistic interaction between the virus partners is not clearly known, but symptoms vary depending on the type of virus present. Whitefly-transmitted viruses include Beet pseudo-yellows and Strawberry pallidosis associated viruses (Genus Crinivirus). Non-whitefly transmitted viruses include Apple mosaic, Fragaria chiloensis latent, andStrawberry necrotic shock viruses (Genus Ilavirus) – transmitted by pollen and seed, Arabis mosaic, Raspberry ringspot, Tomato black ring, and Tomato ringspot (Genus Neopvirus), and Strawberry latent ringspot (Genus Sadwavirus)viruses – transmitted by nematodes and seed, and Strawberry chlorotic fleck (Genus Closterovirus), Strawberry crinkle (Genus Cytorhabdovirus), Strawberry latent C (Genus Nucleorhabdovirus), Strawberry mild yellow edge (Genus Potexvirus), Strawberry vein banding (Genus Caulimovirus) viruses – transmitted by aphids. Pallidosis-related decline is caused by viruses transmitted by whiteflies along with those transmitted by pollen, nematodes, fungi, thrips, and aphids. Photo description by Surendra Dara
Pallidosis disease is indigenous to North America which was first described by Frazier and Stubbs in 1969 and first reported in California in 1975 (Mullin et al, 1975). Pallidosis virus could be latent in production fields and generally does not produce severe symptoms without the synergistic interaction with other viruses. Symptoms include stunted plant growth, purple or red coloration especially of older leaves, and brittle roots. When infection progresses, leaves dry out and plants eventually die. Newly emerged leaves may not show infection symptoms due to the seasonal fluctuations of virus titers, but virus is systemic and remains in the infected plants. When pollen-borne virus is involved, plants may recover from the symptoms of infection.

Plant dies as the disease progresses. D. Small plant on the right with foliar discoloration and affected root system. E. Newly emerging leaves from pruned plants start to show discoloration. F. Infected field with several dead or dying plants. Photos by Surendra Dara
Since several recent strawberry cultivars have general tolerance to viruses, symptoms may not be visible when single virus or some combinations of viruses are present. The extent of disease symptoms from pallidosis-related decline also varies depending on strawberry cultivars and the combination of partner viruses. ELISA or PCR techniques are generally necessary to detect the causal organisms in infected plants.
Nematodes are controlled by fumigation and are not a pest in strawberries, in general. Various species of aphids occur at low numbers in California strawberry fields and usually do not require targeted treatments. However, increased whitefly infestations on newly planted strawberries coupled with aphids and pollen transmitted by multiple partner viruses probably contributed to this new problem.
Management options:
For a problem such as pallidosis-related decline vectored by a widespread pest like whiteflies, a multi-disciplinary approach with the partnership of multiple agencies is required for an area wide management. With overlapping seasons of fall and summer plantings extended by second year production and the presence of other hosts, whiteflies may continue to be present throughout the year and pose an increased risk. Efforts are necessary to break the pest cycle and minimize the disease risk.
Pallidosis disease – There are no chemicals to treat the disease.
- Use disease-free transplants to prevent the introduction of one or more partner viruses into the production fields. Additional virus screening may be necessary to test for more viruses that could contribute to this disease.
- Manage whitefly and aphid vectors to reduce the spread of the disease.
- Avoid planting close to infected fields.
Whiteflies and aphids –
- Monitor for whiteflies and manage them on nearby hosts or second year berry fields especially those upwind before they move to newly planted or other fields. Second year berry fields can be a good source of infestation for the new fields. Pruning them close and discarding the debris is important in reducing the pest pressure.
- Water roadways to prevent dusty conditions to promote natural enemies.
- Conserve natural enemies.
- Chemical control: For whiteflies, use lower volume of spray fluid than usual, pass the sprayer more slowly, and ensure thorough coverage of the lower side of the foliage.
- Rotate chemicals in different modes of action groups.
Chemicals that affect nervous system:
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nACHR) agonists-Neonecotinoids (4A): Imidacloprid (Admire Pro), thiamethoxam (Actara), and acetamiprid (Assail)
Sodium channel modulators (3): Fenpropathrin (Danitol) and pyrethroids.
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors–Organophosphates (1B): Diazinon and malathion.
Chemicals tha interfere with growth: Juveline hormone mimics (7C): Pyriproxyfen (Esteem
Other modes of action:Narrow range oil (Omni Oil) and insecticidal soap (M-Pede)
- Botanical pesticides:Azadirachtin is a neem-based insect growth regulator and is effective against immature stages. Natural pyrethrins affect the nervous system as sodium channel modulators.
- Microbial pesticides:Insect pathogenic fungi such as Beauveria bassiana and Isaria fumosorosea can be used against whiteflies and aphids.

Carrie Underwood: Country's 'Good Girl' Goes Dark
Originally published on Sat April 28, 2012 4:07 pm
Since winning American Idol in 2005, Carrie Underwood has become one of the most popular country artists in the business. At the age of 29, she is tied with country legend Reba McEntire as the Female Country Artist with the most number one hits on the Billboard charts. Not bad for a girl from Checotah, Okla.
Blown Away, which comes out this Tuesday, is Underwood's fourth record, and it's a little darker than her previous work. In a line on the title track, Underwood sings, "There's not enough wind in Oklahoma to rip the nails out of the past."
"The song is a story about a girl and her father," Underwood explains. "The song describes him as a 'mean old mister' — and you can kind of make that as bad as you want it to be. The daughter can feel a storm coming, and she just wishes it would wash her past away, and in doing so, take her father along. So it's a very deep, dark story.'
"To be able to explore that side and kind of have a little more drama, a little more ominous weather going on in the album, is really nice," she adds.
Carrie Underwood speaks with NPR's Guy Raz about the making of Blown Away, her Idol audition, and why she still drives the same Ford Escape she did before she was famous.

First off, I am buying for a commuter fixie. As such I don't want expensive kit and would get that from my LBS everyday, not online.
That said the wheel, and parts I bought were good enough and among the cheapest on line but the packaging was poor. The wheel came in a large box but had obviously been on its side and hand punctured both sides of the box. There was a rip in the bottom and one of my items had fallen out and was lost.
When I reported this the service was excellent, they were very helpful and despite calling at around 15:00 got the missing item next day! This is better than a lot of the big online stores.
I would use them again just for the service alone.

Formulation management tools facilitate the management of the product formulations a number of ways:
Nested Ingredient Algorithm:
MSDgen's Nested Ingredient structure uses as recursive algorithm to traverse through a product's hierarchy and find the eventual base level ingredients. Based on the results of this "drill-down" process, ingredients are appropriately used in MSDgen's automatic calculations and classification systems and properly displayed on the MSDS documents based on the concentration limits required for the specific country/region.
Automatic Formula Acquisition:
MSDgen may be used as the point of entry for formulations or formulations may be automatically acquired via a direct interface to other ERP or R&D systems. MSDSs are updated and queued for review based on the acquisition of new and updated formulas.
Trade Secret Management:
MSDgen allows for the concealment of the ingredient name and CAS number so that the term "Trade Secret" is displayed on the MSDS. Different rules may be applied for the varying region/country/state specific MSDS formats.
Before-Reaction and After-Reaction Compositions:
Composition structures are available for the management of both Before-Reaction Composites (BRC) and After-Reaction Composites (ARC).
Formulation History:
The history of all formulations is automatically tracked for every mixture (raw material or product) to review changes over time and determine the former state of a formulation at any point in time.
Alternate Trade Name Management
With MSDgen's Alternate Trade Name (ATN) features, MSDSs and other HazCom documents may be generated with any number of commercial names based on a single common material source. This many-to-one relationship enables the user to maintain a single data source, while generating any number of unique MSDSs from that same source of data with varying commercial names.
MSDgen also includes the ATN Composition option - enabling users to tie unique data to an Alternate Trade name MSDS, such as product codes, composition disclosures, and manufacturer address and logo. MSDgen's ATN management is ideal for business providing private labeling services.

(RSF/IFEX) - Reporters Without Borders has voiced deep concern about journalist and writer Michel Kilo, who began a hunger strike on 28 October 2006, along with lawyer Anwar Bunni and other political prisoners who were arrested in May after signing a joint statement calling for an improvement in relations with Lebanon.
The hunger strike, which is to last a week, is being held to protest against their prison conditions and the fact that the authorities did not execute a judicial order for Kilo's release on bail on 19 October.
Kilo's lawyer told Reporters Without Borders that his trial on the new charges that have been brought against him is scheduled to start on 31 October, before a Damascus criminal court.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION This NW style sour ale blends wheat & blond ales that were oak aged in barrels for 6 mths, then additionally aged 4 mths on fresh blueberries. Huge herbal notes of dense blueberries in the nose give way to hints of oak & a dusty floral note. Rich earthy notes of dark fruit on the palate lead to a tart finish that dries out to a base note of blueberry skins.

Grooved plate type grills are used extensively by restaurants to impart the characteristic grid appearance of products which are cooked on open grills having spaced bars to support the products. This presents a new cleaning problem in therestaurant because grease and other substances are released by the product during cooking, to seep into and accumulate as a deposit in the grooves of the grill. This deposit combines with fresh grease, hardens and forms a dark, sometimes sticky,residue. Cleaning of the grooves is complicated by the fact that different amounts of accumulated deposits exist from groove to groove and furthermore the amount of deposits in each groove vary along the length of the groove, producing a rough, erraticsurface on the hardened deposits. The tools and techniques used for cleaning flat grills are not effective on grooved grills. Objects of the invention are therefore to provide a tool for cleaning a grooved grill, to provide a tool having highly effective cutters for removing hardened deposits from the grooves of a grooved grill, to provide a tool having a plurality ofcutters which adjust themselves individually to the spacing of the grooves in a grill and to varying thickness of deposits in the grooves, and to provide a tool of the type described in which such cutters are mounted on spring fingers to float bothhorizontally and vertically in accomplishing the described adjustments. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the present construction an elongated handle has mounted on one end thereof a plurality of spring fingers in side by side relation with toothed rotable cutter discs on free ends of the fingers. The free ends of the fingers are movable towardand away from each other to adjust themsleves to the spacing of the grooves in the grill to be cleaned and are movable in a perpendicular direction to adjust themselves to the thickness of deposits in the grooves. The handle also carries a brush tosweep out debris loosened by the cutter discs. The invention will be better understood and additional objects and advantages will become apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiment illustrated on the accompanying drawing. Various changes may be made in the details ofconstruction and arrangement of parts and certain features may be used without others. All such modifications within the scope of the appended claims are included in the invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a grooved grill cleaner embodying the invention. FIG. 2 is a view on the line 2--2 in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is an end elevation view with a portion of a grooved grill shown in section. FIG. 4 is a view on the line 4--4 in FIG. 3 with a portion of the grill shown in phantom lines. FIG. 5 is a view on the line 5--5 in FIG. 4. FIGS. 6 and 7 shown variations in spacing of the cutter disc fingers to adjust themselves to the spacing of the grooves in the grill. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring first to FIG. 3, the numeral 10 designates a cross-section view of a typical grooved grill for cooking meat and fish products. Heat applied to the underside of grill 10 is transmitted to portions of the product by conduction throughflat surfaces 12 on which the product rests and by radiation from the surfaces of grooves 11 to intervening areas of the product. As the product cooks, grease and other substances from the product seep into grooves 11 and build up hardened deposits inthe grooves which detract from the cleanliness of the grill and impair the cooking operation. The present tool for cleaning grooves 11 comprises an elongated handle 15 having a flat plate 16 on its distal end as shown in FIG. 1. Bolts 17 and nuts 18 secure a plurality of flat spring metal fingers 20 to the plate 16 with the fingersdisposed side by side in a common plane As shown in FIG. 2 the bolts 17 extend through holes 21 in the plate 16 which are larger than the bolt shanks whereby the free ends of fingers 20 may pivot laterally toward and away from each other in the common plane. Bolts 17 thus form pivotpins for the fingers. The bolts are not tightened on plate 16 and fingers 20. Each finger has a free end 22 which is bent at an angle almost perpendicular to the plane of the fingers. The line of the bend at 23 makes an angle of about 55° with one side edge of the finger as indicated at 25 in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 5 a rivet 30 is secured in the bent free end 22 of each finger 20. Clamped between the ends of the rivet are the finger end 22, two spacing collars 31 and three washers 32. A pair of cutter discs 35 is mounted for rotation oncollars 31 on opposite sides of finger end 22, the cutter discs being of less thickness than the collars. Rivets 30 form pivot pins for cutter discs 35. Thus the pivot pins 30 are angled at about 35° to the direction of fingers 20. Cutter discs 35 are formed from washers having radial cuts 36 which form peripheral teeth 40. In making the radial cuts 36 substantially no material is removed from the washer. Each tooth is then twisted to about a 25° angle withrespect to the plane of the washer. The ends of the twisted teeth present a substantially continuous circumference on the washer without significant circumferential gaps between the teeth. As best shown in FIG. 4, the teeth 40 are twisted so that on the under sides of the cutter discs which engage the grill 10 the direction of twist of the teeth is the same as the direction of twist of finger ends 22 at angle 25. This places theteeth 40 at about a 30° angle to the grooves 11 when handle 15 is held parallel with the grooves, causing the cutter discs to rotate and remove hardened deposits cleanly without merely cutting grooves in the deposits. The five surfaces on eachtooth 40 meet in sharp, square corners effective for scraping. The values of angles specified above are not critical and may be varied to a considerable extent. It must of course be realized that the operator will not necessarily hold the handle precisely parallel with the grooves in the grill and that aleft handed operator will probably hold the handle at a different angle than a right handed operator. Rotation of cutter discs 35 is not essential to the cleaning action. Cutter discs 35 are of a size to fit grooves 11 of average width when presented to the grooves at angle 25. The cutter discs will enter narrower grooves by shifting the handle clockwise in FIG. 4 and will fit wider grooves by shifting the handlecounter clockwise. The angle 25 of bend 23 makes this adaptability possible. As shown in FIG. 2 the outer end portion 50 of plate 16 is bent at a small angle away from the plane of fingers 20 so as to present a divergent relationship. Angular plate portion 50 thereby provides a stop to prevent fingers 20 from being bentbeyond their elastic limits if the cutters 35 are pressed into the grooves 11 of the grill with excessive force when the tool is turned over and applied to the grill 10 as shown in FIG. 3. The extremity 51 of plate end portion 50 is bent at right angles for mounting a wire brush 52 by means of bolts 53. As viewed in FIG. 2 the outermost row of bristles on the distal side of brush 52 are in approximate vertical alignment with theoutermost cutters 35 so that in grills where the back ends of the grooves terminate at a vertical wall surface both the cutters and the bristles may be applied to the grooves substantially at such wall surface to clean the entire length of the grooves. All material loosened but not removed by the cutters is readily swept out of the grooves by the brush. FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrate the lateral floating movements of fingers 20 to adjust to the spacing of grooves 11 in different grills. Lines 45 represent the center lines of the grooves on the grill. In FIG. 6 the fingers 20 are spread apart indivergent relation so that the cutters 35 will fit in grooves having a spacing represented by the dimension 46 while in FIG. 7 the fingers are crowded together in convergent relation so that cutters 35 will fit the grooves in a grill having a closerspacing according to the smaller dimension 47 and will accommodate irregularities in the grooving process when the grill is made. |

The earliest fossil of the homo sapiens family (human beings) was found in Ethiopia, dating back more than 200,000 years. Compared to this length of time, even the "ancient Sumerians" from 6000 B.C. are drooling toddlers.
Let's mention a few African heroes you may have heard of, for inspiration in the face of the continued economic inequality and violence which plague Africa today: Nelson Mandela, first democratically elected President of South Africa, who fought against apartheid and served 27 years in prison while advocating freedom and peace. Haile Salassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, who resisted Mussolini and the fascist Italian invasion of WWII, and who is worshipped as an incarnation of God by the Rastafari movement. Kwame Nkrumah, first Prime Minister of Ghana, advocate of uniting Africa in Pan-Africanism. Fela Kuti, inventor of Afrobeat music, who declared his home to be an independent state, ran for president of Nigeria, and to whose funeral ONE MILLION PEOPLE came to pay their respects.
In June 2001 the African Union was formed, consisting of 53 African States organized, like in the EU, around common economic and political development.

Some Curves/Tall
These look amazing, for starters. The neon is NEON- just about blinding. They go perfect with everyday jeans. They are show-stoppers, for sure.The uppers, however, are NOT leather, as listed- they are synthetic. I would return these because of this but they are comfortable enough for regular wear to justify keeping (plus I got a discount). They are extraordinarily stiff (I could barely get my feet in when I first tried them on) but I can sense that they will relax after the first few wears. They are fairly well-made for shoes that are not leather. Overall, I am pleased despite the materials problem.

Roma: political scapegoats?
In France 93 people of Roma ethnicity were put on flights to bucharest, among the 700 romanian and bulgarian Roma that the French government has decided to throw out before the end of August. All are said to be volunteers who've accepted the government's offer of money to help them resettle. Is the government right to get tough with those who flought the law?

Four years ago Jeffi Horn was ready to quit doing nails in order to go to law school. But something made her change her mind. A combination of factors—including the cost of college, the difficulty in finding a good job, and her age—made Jeffi decide to stick with the nail industry-Says Jeffi, who owns The Nail Café in Encino, Calif., "When I decided to stay with the nail profession, which I had been in for almost 20 years, I chose to be everything I could be in this industry. I attached my new decision with the same vengeance that I had about going to law school." Jeffi took classes with Tammy Taylor, learning as much from her experiences in the nail industry as she could. "She inspired me to open my salon," says Jeffi, who with the help and support of friends custom-designed her own salon.
Recently, she redesigned he interior of the salon. "I started by handpainting my floors in a brick pattern and ragging my walls to create on outdoor café effect. I purchased a large fountain to add the soothing sound of running water," she says. In addition to this, Jeffi had eight glass-top manicuring tables with matching glass-top toolboxes made—each station is a different color. "I still have two manicuring stations to staff and the salon will be complete," she says.
Setting goals is important to Jeffi. She accomplished another goal when she did the nails on this month's cover. But she isn't stopping there; "My next goal is to develop my own line of pedicure products." Something tells us this will not be the last we hear of Jeffi Horn.

Half a century ago, Sid Davis was the first journalist to learn John Kennedy had died. Instead of breaking the biggest news story in the world, he waited because he wanted to make sure he was right.

From NBC:
Fever is the most common reason parents bring children to emergency rooms, especially in the middle of the night. It's responsible for 1.6 million pediatric ER visits and nearly one-third of pediatrician office visits.
Why? Because fevers scare parents.
In a 2001 study of caregivers, more than half of the parents worried that a fever would harm their children, including brain damage, seizure or death. A more recent study had similar results: more than half of those parents reported being "very worried" when their child is febrile.

90-92 points Robert Parker: "Charismatic auctioneer Fritz Hattons love of music is the basis for the play on words for Arietta, all serious wines produced from innovative blends, especially the Variation One. These are distinctive and dramatic wines, and it is good to see a new addition to the portfolio, the blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Semillon, The White Keys. The 2006 version reveals terrific grapefruit and other honeyed citrus notes intermixed with some guava and white currant. The wine behaves much like a dry white Graves, finishing with good acidity, power, and depth." (Dec 2007) 93-points Stephen Tanzer: "($65; 85% sauvignon blanc from Sonoma Mountain and 15% semillon from Hyde Vineyard in Carneros) Medium yellow. Pungent aromas of lemon, pineapple, fresh herbs, honey and hay, with a hint of lanolin. Then pure, dry and zesty in the mouth, with mouthwatering flavors of orange peel, stone fruits, hazelnut and spices framed by bright acidity. Very fresh and harmonious white wine, not to mention long on the aftertaste." (May/June 2008)

Hadoop will be in most advanced analytics products by 2015, Gartner says
Expect plenty of uptake for natural language and vocal command capabilities in BI applications as well, researcher adds
IDG News Service - The Hadoop open source programming framework for large-scale data analysis is already one of the highest-profile technologies in the "big data" market, but users can expect it to become even more prevalent over the next couple of years, according to Gartner.
In fact, some 65% of "packaged analytic applications with advanced analytics" will have Hadoop embedded by 2015, according to a recent report by the analyst firm, which was announced Thursday.
"Even though special skills were needed to deploy Hadoop systems in 2012, organizations realize the strength that Hadoop-powered analysis brings to big data programs," according to the report. "This is especially true for analyzing poorly structured data, text, behavior analysis and time-based queries. While IT organizations conduct trials over the next few years, especially with Hadoop-enabled database management system (DBMS) products and appliances, application providers will go one step farther and embed purpose-built, Hadoop-based analysis functions within packaged applications."
This trend will have implications for various constituencies within IT shops, Gartner said.
Data management staffers should ensure their company's infrastructure is compatible with Hadoop, while BI (business intelligence) teams should "look for analytic functions adopted by business users, to identify internal Hadoop projects with high business value," according to the report.
Other evidence suggests Gartner's prediction for Hadoop has merit. On Thursday, a keyword search for Hadoop on the IT careers site Dice.com turned up nearly 1,000 jobs posted within the past month, many from software vendors.
But even as Hadoop becomes more prevalent, the technology is entering the "trough of disillusionment," one of the terms on Gartner's "Hype Cycle" scale, Gartner analyst Svetlana Sicular said in a blog post this week. The term refers to a period after an initial wave of interest in a technology peaks, and users lose interest after projects don't work out as expected. The trough is followed by the "slope of enlightenment" and the "plateau of productivity" as a technology matures, according to Gartner.
Gartner didn't just focus on Hadoop in its recent report on the analytics market.
It also predicts that by 2016, some 70% of analytics vendors will add natural language and vocal command capabilities to their products: "As mobile and tethered users continue to become more comfortable with and expect voice-enabled applications, the days of users tapping and clicking away at BI tools may not become a thing of the past, but will certainly become passA(c)."

What HIT me? Living with Histamine Intolerance: A guide to diagnosis and management of HIT – A patient's point of view
HIT – Histamine Intolerance – is a condition that affects many people but remains largely undiagnosed. The symptoms of histamine intolerance (HIT) are caused by the inability of the body to break down histamine sufficiently. These symptoms can appear very like an allergy and can cause stomach and intestinal complaints, migraine, tiredness and skin problems, to name but a few. This is in most cases because of the reduced activity or low presence of an enzyme called diamine oxidase (DAO), whic
