view more less of this reviewThis was a good production of the Dream. The only distracting element was the sound quality. I wasn't sure if the echoing effect was intentional or a mishap. In either case, it made the speaker's words difficult to understand. Otherwise, the production was enjoyable. The costumes were fun and the humourous scenes were well executed.

The Ronettes
The Ronettes
The Ronettes weren't the most commercially successful girl group, but their music was some of the most groundbreaking in the field, thanks to their association with the legendary Wall of Sound producer Phil Spector. Their biggest hit, "Be My Baby," is widely regarded as one of the crowning achievements of Spector's oeuvre, and of girl-group pop in general. In fact, many critics have deemed it one of the most supremely romantic records of the rock & roll era; Spector's production frames the song's yearning lyrics and Ronnie Bennett's sweetly sultry vocals in a sweeping, near-symphonic level of emotion. Even though the Ronettes never managed another hit as big as "Be My Baby," many of their subsequent singles boasted the same kind of creative synergy between Spector and Bennett. It apparently carried over into real life as well, since the two were married in 1968, not long after Bennett went solo. Unfortunately, the union was an unhappy one, as Spector soon turned reclusive and controlling, largely preventing her from recording (or even leaving the house). After their divorce, she recorded sporadically without much success, but became something of a female rock icon when she published her survivor's-tale autobiography.

The main event did nothing to change my opinion that GSP will never be in the same bracket as Anderson Silva. He came up against a fairly flat Diaz and didn't even try and finish him. In fact it seems as though since getting the belt, he's focused more on stifling the game of his opponent than asserting his own. Takedown, side control, throw a few elbows, rinse and repeat. I used to be a big fan but now I wouldn't pay for an event he's headlining. |

PS3 sales down by 82% |
Listed in: PS3 Tags: Chart Track, Europe, HMV, playstation 3 updates, Sony
That brings down the grand total of PS3 sales in terms of hardware to some 30,000 units across the continent. Similarly, the two best selling games for Sony's high-end console, MotorStorm and Resistance: Fall of Man are down 60 percent in overall sales.
The news was confirmed by such retailers as GAME, Gamestation, Play.com, Asda and HMV. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has refused to comment on the matter thus far.
The report was verified by research group Chart Track and reported by gaming business website Games Industry.com. It can be recalled that the PS3 was recently distinguished as the "fastest selling console of all time," but analysts and message boards predicted a decrease in the following weeks.
We hope to get a verification from Sony soon to find out their stand on the subject. We'll keep you informed.

The Waterhouse stop or Waterhouse diaphragm is an interchangeable diaphragm with an aperture (hole) for controlling the entry of light into a camera. A thin piece of metal (the diaphragm) is drilled with a hole (the aperture); a set of these with varying hole sizes makes up a set of Waterhouse stops, corresponding to what today we call f-stops or f-numbers. Photographic lens makers provided slots in lens barrels for the insertion of the chosen stop.
This apparatus was invented by the pioneering 19th century photographer John Waterhouse of Halifax in 1858. It has also been reported to have been independently invented by Mr. H. R. Smyth, and described by Waterhouse as early as 1856. The innovation was quickly put to use due to its convenience: "Aperture openings were at first controlled by unscrewing the lens and inserting stops of the appropriate size between the lens components, though after 1858 photographers used the more convenient Waterhouse stops which eliminated unscrewing the components.
Alternatively, one or more pieces of metal would be drilled with various sized holes. The stop could then be chosen by sliding the diaphragm to different positions in the lens slot. Such multi-aperture diaphragms were also sometimes referred to as Waterhouse stops, due to their operation based on sliding through a slot in the lens barrel.
Waterhouse stops were also used in photographic enlargers in the darkroom.
Today, Waterhouse stops are largely obsolete; most modern photographic lenses are made with an iris diaphragm. Some compact digital cameras use 2-hole diaphragms for limited aperture control. One modern device that still uses interchangeable stops is the Lensbaby.
John Waterhouse also invented an alkaline gold toning bath (see page from 1892 book, figure to the right, below).

Four Arizona players arrested in fight
Four Arizona football players, including starting offensive tackle Fabbians Ebbele, were arrested early Friday morning after a fight at a house party.
Also arrested were sophomore cornerback Jourdon Grandon, sophomore offensive lineman Eric Bender, and sophomore safety Jared Tevis.
Pac-12 blog
ESPN.com's Ted Miller and Kevin Gemmell write about all things Pac-12 in the conference blog.
• Blog network:
College Football Nation
Ebbele, Grandon and Bender were arrested on charges of criminal trespassing in the first degree and assault. Tevis was arrested on trespassing charges.
The Arizona Daily Wildcat, the school newspaper, first reported the incident.
Citing police records, the report said there were two separate incidents. A first fight occurred after the players were asked to leave the party because they were not invited. Former Arizona safety Joshua Robbins got into an altercation with a female, starting the brawl after he allegedly punched her in the face.
The players left , then returned a short time later with "a group of between 10 and 30." A man, later identified as Ebbele, forcibly entered the home and "began punching everybody he could reach," according to the report.
"We are taking this matter seriously," Arizona athletic director Greg Byrne said. "We are cooperating fully with the Tucson Police Department, and disciplinary action will be handled accordingly. Due to federal student-privacy laws, we will have no further comment."
Ebbele, 6-foot-8, 310 pounds, started every game last fall at right tackle. Grandon started four games, finishing with 36 tackles and an interception. Tevis had 12 total tackles.

Quantitative LSPR Imaging for Biosensing with Single Nanostructure Resolution Biophysical Journal, Volume 104, Issue 1, 8 January 2013, Pages 30-36 Marc P. Raphael, Joseph A. Christodoulides, James B. Delehanty, James P. Long, Pehr E. Pehrsson and Jeff M. Byers Abstract Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) imaging has the potential to map complex spatio-temporal variations in analyte concentration, such as those produced by protein secretions from live cells. A fundamental roadblock to the realization of such applications is the challenge of calibrating a nanoscale sensor for quantitative analysis. Here, we introduce a new, to our knowledge, LSPR imaging and analysis technique that enables the calibration of hundreds of individual gold nanostructures in parallel. The calibration allowed us to map the fractional occupancy of surface-bound receptors at individual nanostructures with nanomolar sensitivity and a temporal resolution of 225 ms. As a demonstration of the technique's applicability to molecular and cell biology, the calibrated array was used for the quantitative LSPR imaging of anti-c-myc antibodies harvested from a cultured 9E10 hybridoma cell line without the need for further purification or processing.

Atomic-Level Simulations of Seeman DNA Nanostructures: The Paranemic Crossover in Salt Solution Biophysical Journal, Volume 90, Issue 5, 1 March 2006, Pages 1463-1479 Prabal K. Maiti, Tod A. Pascal, Nagarajan Vaidehi, Jiyoung Heo and William A. Goddard Abstract We use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand the structure and stability of various paranemic crossover (PX) DNA molecules, synthesized recently by Seeman and co-workers at New York University. These studies include all atoms of the PX structures with an explicit description of solvent and ions. The average dynamics structures over the last 1ns of the 3-ns simulation preserve the Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding as well as the helical structure. The root mean-square deviation in coordinates with respect to the MD averaged structure converges to 2–3Å for PX55, PX65, and PX85, but for PX75 and PX95 the root mean-square deviation in coordinates exhibits large fluctuations, indicating an intrinsic instability. The PX structures are structurally more rigid compared to the canonical B-DNA without crossover. We have developed a strain energy analysis method based on the nearest-neighbor interaction and computed the strain energy for the PX molecules compared to the B-DNA molecules of the same length and sequence. PX65 has the lowest calculated strain energy (∼−0.77kcal/mol/bp), and the strain increases dramatically for PX75, PX85, and PX95. PX55 has the highest strain energy (∼1.85kcal/mol/bp) making it unstable, which is in accordance with the experimental results. We find that PX65 has helical twist and other helical structural parameters close to the values for normal B-DNA of similar length and sequence. Vibrational mode analysis shows that compared to other PX motifs, PX65 has the smallest population of the low-frequency modes that are dominant contributors for the conformational entropy of the PX DNA structures. All these results indicate that PX65 is structurally more stable compared to other PX motifs, in agreement with experiments. These results should aid in designing optimized DNA structures for use in nanoscale components and devices. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1965 kb) |
Organizing protein–DNA hybrids as nanostructures with programmed functionalities Trends in Biotechnology, Volume 28, Issue 12, 1 December 2010, Pages 619-628 Carsten Teller and Itamar Willner Abstract The structural and functional information encoded in the base sequence of nucleic acids provides a means to organize hybrid protein–DNA nanostructures with pre-designed, programmed functionality. This review discusses the activation of enzyme cascades in supramolecular DNA–protein hybrid structures, the bioelectrocatalytic activation of redox enzymes on DNA scaffolds, and the programmed positioning of enzymes on 1D, 2D and 3D DNA nanostructures. These systems provide starting points towards the design of interconnected enzyme networks. Substantial progress in the tailoring of functional protein–DNA nanostructures has been accomplished in recent years, and advances in this field warrant a comprehensive discussion. The application of these systems for the control of biocatalytic transformations, for amplified biosensing, and for the synthesis of metallic nanostructures are addressed, and future prospects for these systems are highlighted.

Amphiphilic peptides suspended in aqueous solution display a rich set of aggregation behavior. Molecular-level studies of relatively simple amphiphilic molecules under controlled conditions are an essential step toward a better understanding of self-assembly phenomena of naturally occurring peptides/proteins. Here, we study the influence of molecular architecture and interactions on the self-assembly of model peptides (EAK16s), using both experimental and theoretical approaches. Three different types of EAK16 were studied: EAK16-I, -II, and -IV, which have the same amino acid composition but different amino acid sequences. Atomic force microscopy confirms that EAK16-I and -II form fibrillar assemblies, whereas EAK16-IV forms globular structures. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum of EAK16-IV indicates the possible formation of a β-turn structure, which is not found in EAK16-I and -II. Our theoretical and numerical studies suggest the underlying mechanism behind these observations. We show that the hairpin structure is energetically stable for EAK16-IV, whereas the chain entropy of EAK16-I and -II favors relatively stretched conformations. Our combined experimental and theoretical approaches provide a clear picture of the interplay between single-chain properties, as determined by peptide sequences (or charge distributions), and the emerging structure at the nano (or more coarse-grained) level.

Datsun SPL 311 1600 (Fairlady) By Miguel Caparros In the early to mid 60's Datsun was the one on the move in the US market while Toyota was still sleeping. Datsun was taking on the British car industry head on as it recuperated from WWII. Datsun was one of the companies that benefited from the leadership of W. Edwards Deming, Who was chosen by Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers (SCAP) was the title held by General Douglas MacArthur during the Occupation of Japan following World War II. I remember the first time I saw an SPL 311 and my reaction to it. The quality of build seemed much better than the MG, Triumph or Alfa Romeo, given the fact that much of the technology was under license from US and Great Britain. As great as the quality of the mechanical aspects were concerned, the quality of the interior vinyl and plastics left much to be desire. In spite of that they slowly chipped away at the established manufacturers with a product of superior mechanical quality and value for the money spent. The SPL 311 line finished in 1970 with the Datsun 2000, A car that had to be taken very seriously as a performance sports car. But it was the follow up that put the final nail in the coffin of the British dominance, the 240Z, Fairlady. Driving impression of the Datsun 1600 from 1968. First thing I noticed was the size of the car, it felt bigger than an MG Midget but smaller than the MGB. The controls and switch gear had a quality feel to it and the standard Am Fm radio was completely integrated into the dash. Also well integrated was the heating and ventilation levers and switches and they had a light feel as opposed to some of the British cars that felt as if you were trying to move a rail road track change lever with a tooth pick. One stab of the gas pedal and a light pull of the choke and the car started right up and the choke was not needed after a few seconds and the engine settled to a smooth idle. The clutch was unusually light as was the shift the lever. As I took off I could immediately sense that although the steering was light it did not have the precision of the British rack and pinion and the ride motion was both soft and choppy at the same time. Getting on the power made me smile as the little 1600 had power equal to if not better than the 1800 in the MGB. But it was the great feel of the gearbox that got my attention. Both precise in movement and light in feel. Taking it through my favorite set of twisties in Coral Gables It felt good but not as well planted as an MGB or my own Alfa. But there was no question in my mind that Datsun had a winner here, specially when you take into consideration the price.

Hull City's James Chester: No need to panic but lessons must be learnt from Leicester defeat
Posted: September 25, 2012
|JAMES Chester believes Hull City must heed the lessons of a sobering reality check if they are to maintain an impressive start to the Championship season.
A glittering run of three consecutive victories met a limp conclusion on Sunday as the Tigers were second best in a 3-1 loss at Leicester.
The defeat, only City's second in seven league games this season, saw Steve Bruce's men miss out on the chance to climb to their highest position since relegation from the Premier League in 2010.
This Saturday's home clash against a Peterborough side still searching for their first point of the season offers an inviting chance for City to recapture their winning formula.
But Chester says the set-back suffered at the King Power Stadium should stand as a reminder that nothing will be achieved without the right attitude.
"I certainly know that anyone can beat anyone in this division and the first thing you've got to do is compete if you're going to have any chance of winning a game in this league," said Chester, who spent a short spell on-loan with Peterborough in 2009.
"It's a little kick up the backside for us, but it's no time to start pressing the panic button because we're a good side that can bounce back.
"Peterborough are on a difficult run so they'll be scrapping for everything, but we've been very decent at home this season. It's important that we have a response."
City remain confidently positioned within the Championship's top six after Sunday's defeat, but Peterborough's visit this weekend will start another busy period ahead of the season's second international break.
A mouth-watering home clash with free-scoring Blackpool will test the Tigers a week today before signing off the hectic schedule with a trip to Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday on October 6.
City will attempt to extend a 100 per cent home record when Peterborough and Blackpool arrive in East Yorkshire and Chester remains optimistic.
"Given what we've produced this season I don't feel as though there's anything to worry about," he added.
"There's a lot of new players in this squad and playing a new system so we're all still adapting to that.
"We've done that pretty quickly to be honest and done well so there's nothing here to be concerned about."
Defeat to Leicester was City's first in five league games and compounded by Bruce's dismissal late in the game for remonstrating with the officials.
The frustrations boiled over for the Tigers' boss and that disappointment was made clear to his players after the game.
"We know we're not always going to play as well as we have done in the previous three games but I don't think we competed well enough. We made it too easy for them," added Chester.
"Leicester were a good team and it was never going to be easy, but if you don't compete you've not got much hope.
"The manager hasn't gone too mad with us because we've had a good start to the season but it wasn't good enough at Leicester."

Kenova —
First responders faced a grim scenario when they gathered for a large-scale drill at the Huntington Tri-State Airport on Saturday.
A Boeing 737 carrying 120 passengers, the majority with mental or physical disabilities, experienced engine trouble before crashing on the runway and catching fire.
As part of the full-scale disaster drill, more than 30 area agencies, including seven fire departments, four emergency medical service stations, two local 911 centers, three local medical centers and a host of county, state and federal agencies, responded as they would in a real life situation.
The drill, required every three years, tested all aspects of an emergency response, from extinguishing the flames to assessing and transporting victims to handling the media that show up at a scene. Local students played the crash victims and were actually transported to local medical centers so they too could get in on the action.
Airport Director Jerry Brienza said operations appeared to be going well Saturday morning. "These drills pull together all our emergency personnel in the region," he said, noting the face-to-face contact between agencies is the most valuable part of the exercise.
"They may have been talking to some of these guys on the phone for so long, but they have put a face to a name, and then they share what resources they have available, which is usually the breakdown in a lot of these things — whose got what equipment and where can we use it responsibly," Brienza explained.
"This gets them all together, and they talk and hammer out who has what equipment and how can it be best utilized, and things just start to tie together when they are out here on the scene," he added.
During a real emergency, Brienza said, responders are not stationed feet away from the scene with gear ready to go and having just reviewed their pre-plans. Practicing helps though, he added.
"In a real life situation, things change, but hopefully they come together and you don't have to think about it. You just do it," he said.
Observers from a variety of federal, state and local agencies were also on hand to evaluate the drill and offer criticisms that will hopefully make the next response even better, according to officials. In addition to the large-scale drill every three years, the airport undergoes a "table top" drill annually.
Brienza said he is confident Saturday's drill will continue to illustrate how well-prepared local officials are to handle any emergency situation.
"I think we have one of the finest regional emergency crews in the area," said Brienza. "We have mutual aid agreements with all these agencies, and they have been extremely cooperative. All these people have built such a relationship that they know what the other is doing before they even do it," he added.

Former West High School choir teacher Christopher More was sentenced to 25 years in prison Friday for two counts of sexual abuse of a minor.
Thirteen of those years are suspended, meaning he'll serve 12 years.
Prior to his sentence, the 30-year-old convicted of having sexual relations with two of his students at West High School spoke to Judge Philip Volland in front of a standing-room-only courtroom.
"I ask you to please, please have mercy and leniency on my sentencing," More said, pausing several times during his message to wipe away tears.
"From the bottom of my heart, I'm so very sorry," More said.
He apologized to his choir students who he said looked up to him. He also apologized to his co-workers throughout the Anchorage school district, saying "my behavior was my own," and not reflective of ASD standards.
Through sobs, he asked forgivness from his wife: "I am so sorry for breaking your heart."
Most of the packed courtroom consisted of More's friends and family, four of whom also spoke to Judge Volland on More's behalf. Volland said he had recieved an "unusual" number of letters supporting More's character: 62 of them.
No one associated with any of the victims spoke at Friday's sentencing hearing.
In March, More pleaded guilty to the accusations against him, and in exchange, prosecutors asked Judge Volland to drop four of the six charges against him, leaving two counts of second-degree sexual abuse of a minor.
But Judge Volland struggled to accept the plea deal initially -- something he says he's only questioned twice in his eight-year career as a judge.
He said in previous cases involving sexual abuse of a minor, he's been compelled to sentence people to 30-50 years in prison.
"I've got to be fair," Volland said.
He said that under the law, he's supposed to treat all sexual offenders similarly in sentencing for the same charge, even though not all sexual offenses are the same.
"I'm not given a lot of discretion," Volland said.
After allowing both the defense and prosecution to explain why they struck the plea deal, Volland accepted it, saying More shows "great potential for rehabilitation."
He also said by pleading guilty, More spared his victims the "tortuous" task of testifying at trial.
Prosecutors also noted More's "swift and immediate acceptance of responsibility."
More was also sentenced to 15 years probation, and he was required to turn over his Alaska teaching license for life.

EDMOND — For part of one night, more than 100 teens gathered at St. Monica's Catholic Church got a taste of what it might be like to be poor. And they didn't like it one bit.
Edmond teenagers learn lessons in poverty
During a "poverty simulation" Wednesday, they learned about challenges faced daily by thousands of people in Oklahoma County. The program is sponsored by the Oklahoma Department of Commerce, a state agency that uses the exercise to heighten awareness of the day-to-day poverty they say 11.8 percent of Oklahomans experience.
Rebekah Zahn-Pittser, a program planner for the Commerce Department, laid out the scenario for participants ranging in age from seventh to 12th grades. Participants were gathered into homes — or circles of four chairs making up a family. They were given name tags and a scenario of their family's challenges.
One "family" was headed by an unemployed information technology professional. His unemployment benefits were drying up while his wife worked at a job paying $8.50 an hour.
Some families had children with serious medical conditions. Others were told they had homes needing repairs but no funds available.
The youths were given a list of rules — requiring them to pay with fake money for utilities, child care, mortgage and other expenses.
Desks around the room were staffed with adults who handled the roles of bankers, grocers, school teachers, state welfare workers, pawn brokers and police. The youth went around to the various desks either paying bills, going to school or hoping to get more money.
The exercise was complicated with "luck of draw" cards given where some problems were enhanced or made worse by situations out of their control.
While some of the students enjoyed the drill, Zahn-Pittser made the objective clear.
"This isn't a game," she told the students. She asked how many had eaten at least one meal the day before or slept somewhere warm. All raised their hands.
"We should all be motivated to help those in need," she said.
Dean Hoffhines, a teacher at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School in Edmond, volunteered for the role of teacher during the simulation.

Mel Gibson eats a cookie
Rather odd clip at AOL TV, from last night's Jay Leno. Mel Gibson was on the show, to talk about his new movie Apocalypto and, you know, what he's been up to the past few months. It's not the whole interview (maybe NBC.com has it?), but it's a snippet that shows Gibson munching on a big cookie while answering questions about sobriety and healing.
Gibson makes a joke that a security guard at the show told him that if he could walk a straight line he'd get a cookie, but it seems to me like Gibson was trying to do something casual and funny to take a bit of the edge off of the interview and what reaction the audience would have. From the sound of the laughter and applause, from the audience and Leno, it seems like Gibson is back and everything's OK. Wheeeeeeee! (As for the reference to Danny DeVito and George Clooney, I don't think Gibson meant it literally, I think he was making a joke about DeVito's recent appearance on The View and DeVito's drinking with Clooney the night before.)
This might be Mel Gibson's "Hugh Grant moment," going on Leno and making jokes and coming out of it OK. Now, can Michael Richards be far behind?
Diane Sawyer asks Mel Gibson some questions - VIDEO
Here's part one of her interview this morning with Mel Gibson on Good Morning, America. She seems to ask all the right questions, but in the end, not really. She just barrels through the questions, in that "this is a celebrity, let's be more touchy-feeling with him instead of investigative-reporter-ish with him" sort of way. You can see why Gibson chose her. She has that air of respectability, but in reality she's slow pitch softball ("Where does this anger come from?"). Maybe we should hold judgement until the second half of the interview airs tomorrow, but this clip just looks like a Daily Show parody than a real interview. The interruptions are annoying (why so many voiceovers?).
It's worth it though to hear Gibson talk about choking his toaster. And, no, that's not a euphemism for anything dirty. (Video after the jump.)

Seeding Dates, Rates and Procedures
Fescue should be planted at rates of 10 to 15 pounds of good seed per acre between September 1 and November 1 or between March 1 and April 15. Use higher seeding rates with late seeding dates, poorer seedbed preparation, poor growing conditions, and broadcast seedings. Use the lower rates when other forage species are included in the mixture, when ideal growing conditions prevail at planting time, and when the seed are drilled on a good firm seedbed.
If a new field of fescue is to be planted where fescue was not the previous crop and the seedbed is to be plowed, the following steps should be followed:
1. Test the soil by following a system prescribed by the local Extension office. Sampling should be done well in advance of the intended date of seeding so that sufficient time is allowed to receive results and recommendations prior to seedbed preparation.
2. Apply lime and fertilizer as prescribed by the soil testing laboratory. Apply lime and fertilizer prior to seedbed preparation to allow best placement of these soil amendments.
3. Plow the ground several weeks ahead of planting to incorporate the lime and fertilizer into the root zone. This is a critical step since the field may not be plowed again for as long as a stand lasts. Use good judgment in contour plowing and leaving undisturbed waterways in the draws if erosion is likely. Less erosion is likely with fall than with spring plowing.
4. Disk and cultipack ahead of seeding if possible. Ideal depth of seed placement is ¼ inch.
Managing New Plantings
When young fescue plants emerge and begin to grow vigorously, a 50-pound-per-acre application of nitrogen fertilizer will stimulate their growth. Nitrogen, however, will discriminate against young legumes in the stand and may encourage grass growth to the point that clover is shaded out.
Spring plantings of pure fescue may be grazed back to a 3-inch stubble height when young plants accumulate an 8-inch growth. However, it is generally best that fall-seeded fescue remain ungrazed until the following spring. Small seedlings are easily damaged by trampling on muddy fields and by being pulled from the ground by grazing animals. Careful observation of the stand during the first grazing period is essential.
If grassy weeds appear to be a problem in young stands, then grazing may be necessary before the fescue reaches 8 inches tall. Broadleaf weeds may be controlled by grazing or with herbicide applications while weeds are small. Contact the county Extension office for recommended herbicides and application procedures.
Thickening up Partially Killed Stands
Sometimes old stands of fescue are partially killed by overgrazing or by severe summer droughts. It is difficult to "thicken up" a damaged forage stand. Therefore, fewer problems are encountered if the field is completely replanted. However, there are other alternatives. If 50 percent or less of the fescue is dead, the stand is ideally suited for including legumes in the field. Renovating fescue pastures with legumes is a very viable option.
If more than 75 percent of the fescue stand is dead, it is probably best to sacrifice the remaining 25 percent in order to prepare a new seedbed for reseeding. If 25 to 50 percent of the old stand remains, the decision is whether to "thicken up" the old stand or to plow it up and replant.
If close to 50 percent of the fescue is alive, it will probably be worthwhile to save the remaining part of the stand and plant a mixture of fescue and clover. One method of doing this would be to apply fertilizer (consult your soil test for rates), lightly disk, broadcast or drill the seed by early March or in September and then drag, harrow, or cultipack the field to cover the seed lightly. An alternative system would be to plant the seed with a drill on undisturbed soil after first spraying the field with a herbicide to control weeds. This latter system has its greatest merit on fields that are likely to erode if the soil is disturbed with a tillage implement.
White clover is probably the most commonly used legume with fescue in Arkansas. As long as fescue or some other grass comprises 50 percent or more of the stand, the likelihood of bloat is not great with white clover or other legumes. White clovers are shallow-rooted perennials that grow well on both poorly drained and better drained soils. A 2-pound seeding rate per acre provides a good stand. The seed of all clovers and other legumes should be carefully inoculated before planting so that the full benefit of their nitrogen-fixing ability is realized.
Other legumes are less commonly grown with fescue. Crimson clover (12 pounds per acre), arrowleaf clover (8 pounds per acre), subterranean clover (10 pounds per acre), hop clover (1 pound per acre), or red clover (10 pounds per acre) are occasionally used. Alfalfa (12 pounds per acre) will grow with tall fescue but has rarely been used in Arkansas. Lespedeza, which is seeded at a rate of 15 to 25 pounds per acre, works well with fescue. The two main advantages of lespedeza are 1) it produces quality forage at a time of the year when pastures are typically low in forage availability and quality (July to September) and 2) it will grow well on acid soils (down to pH values as low as 5.4) unlike all other legumes which require a pH of 6.2 or higher.
To incorporate legumes into existing stands of fescue, it is necessary to accomplish four management practices. These practices are:
(1) open the fescue stand by killing or greatly retarding at least 50 percent of the existing sod (assuming that a full stand already exists) – this can be done with a disk or herbicide after the field has been closely grazed;
(2) planting good seed as early as possible in the planting season (for white clover this is September 15-November 1 for south Arkansas, September 1-October 15 for north Arkansas, and February 15-April 1 for all areas);
(3) fertilizing and liming to favor the legumes; and (4) rotationally grazing new stands to favor the legume.
Proper Use of Fescue
There is an old forage adage, "Produce and Utilize." A grazing management system, regardless of whether it be continuous or some form of controlled grazing should be selected to match each producer's ability to profitably manage both forages and livestock. Controlled grazing, rotational grazing, intensive grazing, cell grazing and controlled rotational grazing are terms that have been used to identify planned grazing management practices. These terms are used to differentiate planned grazing management from continuous grazing.
The most economical method of using forages is with a grazing animal. Ideally, we would like to be able to provide 365 days of available adequate-quality forage. While this is not presently a practical practice, many livestock producers have been able to reduce their days of hay feeding down to 30 to 60 days per year. This has been accomplished primarily through changes in their grazing management program. Grazing management can either affect beneficially or detrimentally forage availability, quality and persistence.
Controlled grazing allows the producer to better use the supply of forage when it is the most nutritious and abundant. It also allows a limited forage supply to be stretched when growth slows in hot or cold weather, thereby reducing the need for hay. Pastures properly grazed and rested grow longer in the early stages of drought and revive quicker after rain. The suggested height to begin grazing fescue for maximum yields, quality and persistence is when fescue plants reach 4 to 6 inches in the fall and again in the spring. It is recommended that livestock be moved to another pasture when plants are grazed down to an average height of 2 inches. Controlled grazing allows plants to rest and this helps avoid the severe shock that some continuous grazed fescue pastures experience. Forage use efficiency (which translates into more grass for the cow herd) has been shown to increase 10 to 35 percent in grazing research trials. This can mean that more cattle per farm can be carried or that more hay is available for use on the farm or that hay for use as a cash crop is available.
One of the challenges in managing fescue in a grazing system is to minimize seed head formation in the spring. Fescue like most other cool-season perennial forage grasses produces seed heads one time per year. This occurs during a two-week period in late spring after the plant has been triggered by the appropriate day length. When this occurs, vegetative growth slows and digestibility of plants decreases. Start grazing early in spring to prevent the grasses from getting too much of a head start. Move the animals through pastures quickly as seed heads begin to emerge.
Early in the year, producers may want to open all the gates and allow the cattle to graze all pastures until growth begins to accumulate. After this the gates can be closed and the rotational grazing begun. Mowing excess forage accumulation (for hay) or grazing when plants reach the boot to early head stage helps to maintain pastures in a more leafy vegetative growth state.
If pastures are grazed heavily enough in spring to eliminate at least 50 percent of the seed heads, clipping is not likely warranted. Animals tend to eat these "escape" seed heads the next time they graze that pasture.
Grazing fescue pastures in this manner will be helpful in providing forage that is readily available and of adequate quality. This method of spring fescue forage use is helpful in lowering endophyte problems on pastures that predominately contain E+ fescue varieties such as Kentucky 31.
Sometimes, particularly in the spring, cattle numbers may not be available to generate adequate "grazing pressure." During these times, fescue tends to "get ahead" of the cattle. As this happens, quality is generally deteriorating. The second option for fescue use is hay production.
Fescue can make a very nutritious hay if harvested in the boot to early head stage for the first cut and afterwards at 4 to 6 week intervals. Fescue hay harvested at these stages of plant development from a number of Arkansas farms were analyzed and found to contain an average of 16.8 percent crude protein and 63.5 percent TDN.
It is important to remember that the single most important producer-controlled factor affecting hay quality is stage of maturity at harvest. How tall the fescue is at cutting affects yield.
Stockpiling Fescue
Tall fescue works very well as fall stockpiled forage for winter grazing. This concept of winter feeding has been used by livestock producers for more than 30 years, but it has also been overlooked as one of the most economical ways of wintering livestock. It is certainly cheaper than feeding hay and generally cheaper than winter annuals. Stockpiled fescue lends itself well to a cow-calf operation whereas stocker operations typically rely on winter annuals.
Tall fescue has a major advantage over other cool-season grasses in its ability for late summer and fall vegetative growth to be stockpiled for deferred grazing in late fall and winter. Stockpiled growth is characterized by accumulation of leaves, which under favorable conditions remain relatively green with high carbohydrate concentrations into early winter. Stockpiled tall fescue exhibits less loss of forage digestibility and crude protein concentration than in other stockpiled cool-season grasses.
Timing of the initiation of the stockpile period has been shown to greatly influence quality of forage available for winter grazing. Tall fescue accumulated from mid-June to early July tends to be much lower in quality than does forage accumulated from early to mid-August. Early August grazing or clipping is very important for obtaining a high quality winter stockpile. It is estimated that maximum per acre yield for stockpiling is achieved with about 75 days of growth in early fall. To determine when to begin stockpiling pasture, estimate your last day of active growth and back up 75 days. For example, if November 25 is the end of your growing season for fescue, target September 10 to begin stockpiling.
The rate of quality deterioration during the winter months is highly dependent on how the standing forage is used. When cattle are allowed access to the entire stockpiled fescue pasture, quality declines much more rapidly than if cattle graze down small paddocks one after another. The physical activity of cattle stirring the forage as they graze opens it up to weather. This weather damage accelerates the deterioration of both forage quality and dry matter losses. Therefore, using deferred or stockpiled fescue in a controlled grazing system (strip grazing using portable electric fencing or use of multiple-paddocks) will lengthen the availability of quality forage compared to continuous grazing of the entire stockpiled fescue acreage.
Applying 40 to 60 pounds of nitrogen per acre (115 to 175 pounds ammonium nitrate or 90 to 135 pounds urea) at the beginning of the stockpiling period is usually a cost-effective practice. If soil moisture is favorable, use the higher rate. In pastures where at least 30 to 40 percent of the annual forage production comes from a legume, applying nitrogen probably won't pay.
One of our goals in a beef cow-calf program is to provide as much of the animals' nutrient requirements with forages as possible. The more days livestock can spend grazing and the fewer days they are fed hay and other supplements, generally, the lower the cost of production tends to be. Using stockpiled fescue is one management opportunity that is a proven economical tool.
Fescue Animal Disorders
Three major types of animal disorders associated with consuming endophyte infected fescue forage or seed are fescue foot, bovine fat necrosis, and fescue toxicosis (formerly referred to as "summer syndrome"). Fescue foot is characterized by gangrenous and necrotic tissue at the animal's extremities, namely the tail, ears, and feet, with severe cases showing loss of the tail or hoof. This disorder usually occurs during the winter, especially when grazing stockpiled or N-fertilized tall fescue.
Fat necrosis is the accumulation of dense, necrotic fat deposits in the abdominal cavity of cattle, and occurs most likely in virtually pure tall fescue stands amended with high rates of N fertilizer, either from commercial or poultry litter sources. Acute cases can cause death in cattle by intestinal strangulation. Evidence suggests that fat necrosis is associated with consumption of endophyte-infected fescue; however, direct cause and effect have not been established.
Fescue toxicosis describes the general conditions of unthrifty appearance and poor animal performance, exhibited especially during high temperature periods. This disorder is responsible for the major economic losses to the USA beef industry caused by consumption of endophyte-infected tall fescue. The complex of symptoms includes poor weight gain and milk production, rough hair coat, excess salivation, elevated body temperature, depressed serum prolactin levels and standing in shade and water.
The economic impact is greatest in the cow-calf industry because of the predominance of tall fescue use in that sector. In 1993, researchers surveyed 21 eastern states and summarized that fescue toxicosis reduced calf-weaning percentages from a potential of greater than 90 percent to 74 percent, for a loss of $354 million. Weaning weights were estimated to be reduced by 50 pounds for a further loss of $255 million annually.
Minimizing Fescue Animal Disorders
Which tall fescue is best for grazing – infected or endophyte-free tall fescue? The data present both sides, defining the "good news, bad news" about each type of tall fescue. If we continue grazing infected tall fescue, we can experience as much as a 50 percent reduction in animal gains; however, our pastures will probably persist. On the other hand, if we switch to endophyte-free tall fescue, we will experience excellent animal gains but may lose our stands to drought, overgrazing, insects or diseases. In Arkansas, the bottom line is to reduce our reliance on endophyte-infected tall fescue as a year-round grass. Below are some management options.
1. Release bermudagrass.
Spray glyphosate (Roundup™) on fescue in March when it is actively growing but before the bermudagrass comes out of dormancy. This removes competition from fescue and allows the bermuda to spread out and fill in. Spraying may have to be repeated the following March to catch escaped fescue plants.
2. Rotate to other pastures.
For several reasons, moving cattle off of fescue during the hot summer months greatly increases animal gains. First, fescue is not productive during the summer months, so moving cattle to a summer pasture simply gives them something to graze. Second, high temperatures can intensify the toxic effect of infected fescue, so moving them to a non-toxic pasture usually eliminates summer slump. Research by Garner in Missouri suggests that 88°F may be a threshold for significantly decreased gain. After moving, keep cattle off infected tall fescue for the entire summer. Researchers in other states report a residual effect of toxicity, suggesting that rotating off of tall fescue for a mere one to two weeks does not greatly reduce summer slump. Alternative warm-season grasses to bermudagrass include bahiagrass, dallisgrass, plains bluestem and eastern gamagrass for central and south Arkansas, and dallisgrass, eastern gamagrass and caucasian bluestem for north Arkansas.
3. Dilute with other forages.
Infected fescue can be diluted with legumes. In Arkansas, common grazing legumes for interseeding are red clover, white clover, annual lespedeza and grazing-type alfalfa. Each of these legumes differs in its persistence, but all can be maintained by proper management. Annual lespedeza must be allowed to reseed in late August and early September. Red clover may require occasional reseeding if they are not allowed to reseed naturally every two years. Legumes should be inoculated, and mixtures should not receive much nitrogen (0 to 30 pounds per acre) unless stocking rate is high or hay is cut.
4. Supplement.
Supplementing with corn or other feeds also reduces the toxic effects of the endophyte on cattle. Although feeding corn at a rate of 1 percent of body weight can be effective, it may interfere with efficient forage fiber digestion. For this reason, feeding corn at a rate of 0.5 percent of body weight or less offers an economic compromise – it allows efficient digestion of forage fiber, lowers feed costs and reduces the effects of toxicity. An alternate supplement is corn gluten feed, and it can be fed at a higher rate without interfering with fiber digestion.
5. Fertilize properly.
High nitrogen rates increase toxicity. Nitrogen increases ergovaline, the toxin produced by the endophyte, and probably contributes to the nutrition of the endophyte. High rates of nitrogen can also decrease the legume component in a mixed sward. For these reasons, fertilizing for the legume is the proper approach to managing infected tall fescue. Do not apply more than 1 ton per acre per year of broiler litter to endophyte-infected fescue.
6. Graze properly.
Infected fescue should be closely grazed. When it is allowed to develop seed heads, it becomes more toxic. This occurs because seed heads contain much more ergovaline than do other plant parts. In addition, mature infected fescue contains less protein and more fiber than leafy, immature fescue. Be aware that the risk of cattle having fescue foot is high on infected fescue pasture that has been stockpiled for several years and fertilized with nitrogen.
7. Replace with endophyte-free tall fescue.
This should be attempted only on the land with the best water-holding capacity and only after enough warm-season grass acreage is established. To replace infected tall fescue, follow the "spray-smother-spray" recipe. Replacement involves spraying infected Kentucky 31 with an effective herbicide, seeding a smother crop and replanting endophyte-free tall fescue or a similar forage. For spring seedings, the preceding smother crop should be a summer annual, such as sudangrass. In the process of renovation, exercise caution. If the land is drought-susceptible or heavily grazed, total renovation is not wise. Instead, small renovations (10 to 20 acres) are prudent. If the land is productive, larger renovations are appropriate. In three independent studies, replacement to endophyte-free fescue has been shown to be cost-effective.
8. Ammoniate hay.
Ammoniation of hay is treating hay with anhydrous ammonia. There are excellent reasons to ammoniate low quality hay. First, ammonia breaks cell wall linkages and increases digestibility. Second, ammoniation requires hay to be covered; therefore, it indirectly provides an excellent storage facility for hay. In the case of toxic feed, there is a third reason to ammoniate – ammonia can reduce the effect of endophyte toxins. (In grain crops, ammonia has the same effect on alfatoxins.) Ammoniation of toxic fescue can increase daily gains by at least 50 percent, an increase higher than expected by merely improving digestibility.
9. Beware of magic cures.
According to current research, addition of minerals, hormones and other animal treatments do not significantly improve daily gains if the animals are already consuming a balanced diet. At present, there are no proven animal treatments available.

Losing weight has never been this Delicious
First let me start out by giving readers a description of what exactly the paleo diet is according to LIVESTRONG.COM
The Paleo Diet is simple. It consists of basic foods such as plain meat, fish, shellfish, eggs, nuts, vegetables, fruits, berries and mushrooms. Products such as dairy, legumes and dry beans, grains, coffee, alcohol, sugar and processed foods are not part of the diet, as these foods came about after the onset of agricultural revolution. Use minimally processed oils, such as avocado, olive or coconut oil, for cooking. The diet does not advocate specific proportions of these foods, it just advocates that you choose foods that were available to those living in the Paleolithic Era. Water is the drink of choice for the diet.
Okay so now you know what the diet is. The app Paleo Nom Nom is a guide that gives users tons of different food ideas to cook while they are on the paleo diet. I am not really on the paleo diet but I am on a form of the Atkins diet which also eats a lower carb type diet. This is why I got this app. I needed more food ideas to choose from. And I must say that after getting this app I was definitely not disappointed. There are tons of recipes in this app it is a gold mine of low carb eating.
