Aarskog syndrome causes changes in the size and shape of certain bones and cartilage in the body. The face, fingers, and toes are most often affected. Aarskog syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder.
Aarskog syndrome is an inherited disorder. It is caused by a gene mutation on the X chromosome. It is passed from mothers to male children. (Female children can be affected by a milder form of the disease.)
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition. This disorder mainly affects males.
Those at risk of inheriting Aarskog syndrome are male children of:
The main symptoms of Aarskog syndrome are:
Cleft Lip

Other symptoms may include:
Undescended Testicle
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A
physical exam
will be done. The diagnosis of Aarskog syndrome is usually based on facial characteristics. It can be confirmed with genetic tests.
of the face and skull can be used to help make a diagnosis.
There is no known cure for Aarskog syndrome. Treatment is limited to surgical procedures to treat conditions caused by the disorder and supportive treatment. Orthodontic treatment is often needed.
Treatment may include:
Conditions that may be treated with surgery include:
In some cases, orthodontic treatment may help certain facial and dental abnormalities.
Supportive treatment generally includes educational assistance to those afflicted with mental deficiencies. Parents often need advice and support.
There is no known way to prevent Aarskog syndrome. If you have Aarskog syndrome or have a family history of the disorder, you can talk with a genetic counselor when deciding to have children.
Researchers have located abnormalities in the FGD1 gene in people with this syndrome. Genetic testing for mutations in this gene are available.
As a woman, your health concerns are as unique as your body. How you take care of yourself has a huge impact on your future, affecting everything from your ability to have children to your risk of heart disease. There's no substitute for good health, and when it's gone, it's often gone for good. Don't let it pass you by. Test your smarts with this women's health quiz.

Uh, That's Not the Grip I had in Mind!
Jan. 13-19, 2003
NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD OREO WATCH: Wednesday, 45 across, "Snack favorite."
CONTINUING RESOLUTION DEP'T.: Sunday in The Boondocks, Riley says he's made a New Year's resolution to be more brutish and have more contempt for the law. "I can't tell if my brother is becoming more of a thug or more of a Republican," Huey says. New Year's resolutions on January 19th? Maybe Aaron McGruder made a New Year's resolution to maintain a six-week backlog of strips, like the established pros do, so we don't get reruns every time he takes a vacation. And he's still adjusting to the time lag.
SHOE: "Quite frankly, Padre," Cosmo says Monday, "I find it hard to believe that the world was created in just six days." "Amazing what you can do when you don't have to wait for a building permit," the priest replies.
DOONESBURY: It's a week of Garry Trudeau's Muppet Show-style production-within-the-cartoon routines, with the characters pretending to drop character to answer reader mail. Things kick off Monday with Mike and Zonker:
Panel one: "Couldn't happen, Pal!" Mike says. "Not in this lifetime," Zonker adds. "We're pros."
Panel two: "Is this a serious question?" Mike asks. "Well, I assume so," Zonker replies.
Panel three: Mike reads: "Dear Guys: Do you ever mix up the order of the four panels by mistake? Just wondering, Phil Z., Chicago."
Panel four: "Hi, folks!" Mike says. "It's that time of year again . . ." "Time for the ol mailbin!" Zonker says. "Let's get to it!"
What impresses Funny Paper is how close this gag comes to not working. It wasn't till the giveaway language in panel three that we realized something was supposed to be amiss. If you assume that Mike and Zonker have read the letter before panel one, then are rereading it in panel three, the conversation makes sense. There's nothing inherently impossible going on. Even panel four, which is supposed to be panel one, could almost pass for the sort of retroactive mock-introduction people do all the time: Yeah, welcome to the mailbin. The only thing at odds with that reading is Zonker's "Let's get to it." A surprisingly tricky thing to pull off.
APARTMENT 3-G: Lu Ann--her agoraphobia and personal dusting of snow simultaneously melting away--arrives at the theater in time to hear Cousin Blaze announce that the show's been cancelled. This is why Funny Paper never bothers to leave the house.
NON SEQUITUR: Monday, intermittently recurring mopey child Danae hands her father her grades. "Report card time, Daddy . . . read 'em and weep!" "Well, I like the sound of tha . . . " Daddy says, then gawks and blanches. "Uh . . . Danae? 'Read 'em and weep' is supposed to mean you've done well." Huh. It's overwritten, to be sure: All of Daddy's dialogue could be trimmed back to "That's not what 'Read 'em and weep' is supposed to mean." And Wiley loses another half point for giving Danae an unnecessary and pretentious counterpunchline ("OK . . . so I'm a literalist, just don't say I didn't warn you"). Nevertheless, it's not a bad gag. For Non Sequitur, it's a great gag.
Tuesday through Saturday, though, Wiley drags it out into a continuing storyline about how Danae wants to sue the school for the bad report card. Wednesday, she gives the case to her "Uncle Bob," the intermittently recurring lawyer who looks like Nixon. Say, does that mean that Danae's hapless Daddy--who looks sort of like Nixon--is the same guy as the intermittently recurring radio-host character in Non Seq. who sometimes talks to Uncle Bob? Is Funny Paper starting to understand the universe of Wiley?
CLASSIC PEANUTS: "Birds don't know how to tell jokes," Snoopy tells Woodstock Monday. Especially that fucking parakeet in Kudzu.
THE MIDDLETONS: Morris namechecks Snoopy Friday, ordering Bumper to fetch his supper dish in his mouth like the more illustrious and beloved dog does. Bumper swallows the dish.
JUMP START: Clarence keeps freaking out over Charlene's drawings of a nude male model.
BARNEY GOOGLE & SNUFFY SMITH: Tuesday, Snuffy is offended by a free pie: "She made a lattice top 'steada givin' us a full crust!!."
YOU CAN WITH BEAKMAN & JAX: Asked about contrails, Jax quotes Joni Mitchell and Beakman decides to squander the weekly footnote on the musty driveway/parkway conundrum. Hey, research guru: A driveway is the path that you drive up to reach a building by automobile. A parkway is a highway that incorporates green space, aka park land, along its length. Ain't you supposed to be in the business of dispelling ignorance?
HI & LOIS: Thursday, Lois rebukes Ditto for saying "friggin'." "It's too close to another word!" she says. "Man!" Ditto complains. "I gotta watch everything I freakin' say around here!"
WILLY 'N ETHEL: Thursday, Willy proposes changing Dogmeat the cat's name to "Tushmeat."
REX MORGAN, M.D.: For the ailing John, it's week of dramatic lighting and rabbit-fever-dreams. Fumbling around in Wednesday's shadows, he mistakes June for someone named Becka. "I'm not Becka, John . . . Let's get a grip!" June says. "Uh . . . that's not the grip I had in mind!"
LUANN: Greg Evans runs a humor seminar, as Mr. Fogarty makes the kids team up to write amusing essays. "The more I laugh, the higher your grade," he declares Monday. Crystal and Knute spend the week feuding about the nature of their mission. "Real humor is about conflict, not slapstick," the choker-wearing Goth princess insists Friday. Slapstick? Conflict? Howsabout some nice doo-doo jokes instead?
Sunday, Puddles the Dog takes center stage for a sequence in which it eats while fantasizing about sleeping, then sleeps while dreaming about eating. Real humor is about stealing a gag that's been done a kabillion times in Garfield and Peanuts. Also Marmaduke.
THE PHANTOM: Mayday! Mayday! Mayday, mayday, mayday . . . Mayday . . . Slowly, slowly, the sabotaged mystery plane makes its emergency landing in the Deep Woods. "Boom bom bom boom," say the jungle drums Saturday.
Sunday, "Raz" Rakowski has dreams involving the snake-lady succubus Anuga.
FAMILY CIRCUS: "It's the second day of the week," Dolly tells Jeffy, gesturing at the calendar. "That's why it's called TWOsday." If the Circus family spoke Chinese, Dolly would be correct! "Mommy," Jeffy laments Friday, "my pencil ran out of sharp." At least it had some to begin with, kid. Saturday, Live Grandma dispenses some wisdom: "Life is like a game of cards . . . God deals us each a hand at birth. How we play the cards is up to us." Sunday, Live Grandma has a dance with Dead Grandpa.
DILBERT: Monday brings a new character species: the Consultick. Tuesday and Wednesday, the Consultick disturbingly burrows into the torso of the boss. Sunday, a third-of-a-page advertisement for vanity checks with Dilbert on them forces Sally Forth, The Phantom, and Hal Foster's Prince Valiant into space-saving configurations. "If you enjoy reading the comics or if you've ever worked in an office, you'll relate to Styles' newest design . . . "
BEETLE BAILEY: Monday, Beetle preempts Sarge's reprimand by acknowledging his own failures of grooming. Saturday, Mort Walker notices and acknowledges that the comedy routine isn't working: After a tedious argument between the General and Mrs. General about the General's drinking, Mrs. General decides to forcibly stop Amos from talking. "What we need here is a gag," she says. "Right!" says a speech balloon coming from Mort Walker's byline. This is either shameless or fearless. Funny Paper doesn't know which, but we approve.
CATHY: Back at work after the holidays, the female Ziggy begins compulsively organizing her desk.
IN THEIR OWN WORDS: Novelist, Friend of Doug Marlette, and self-proclaimed child-abuse survivor Pat "Prince of Tides" Conroy, flogging his new memoir. Quote: "I don't have to look for melodrama because it's right there." Oh, really? That's not what we heard!
BLONDIE: Monday, Dagwood and Blondie switch their usual seats in the living room to spice up their marriage. Thursday, Dagwood modifies his usual nap position on the couch to show that he's "taking a break" rather than napping outright.
HAL FOSTER'S PRINCE VALIANT: Justinian and the people of Ichthyopolis switch positions.
SALLY FORTH: Hilary demands an expensive birthday party. Sunday, Francesco "Mac" Marciuliano continues to make his creative presence felt with a panel in which Hilary's piggybank talks.
KID CITY: Sunday, the gentle, dead dodo and an excellent Siberian tiger maze: Enter through a gap around the big cat's lumbar region, work around its elegant stripes, and exit between the toes of its left front paw.
MOTHER GOOSE & GRIMM: Monday, it's another HMO gag. Maybe we shouldn't be so hard on the HMO gags. Maybe we need for hack cartoonists to keep pounding away at the HMOs, so that each time somebody has been screwed by the health-maintenance industry, that person gets immediate gratification from the comics page. Maybe Mike Peters is a positive force for social change.
Wednesday, it's another lame Superman gag. Maybe Mike Peters is just an abominable hack. Once again, Funny Paper takes up our pen to punish Peters.
CURTIS: Curtis fakes "stomach" trouble--read: bowel trouble--to get out of class. Derrick and "Onion" frame our hero for writing on the bathroom wall.
ZIPPY: Bill Griffith is sick of the pinhead's wallowing in roadside Americana too. Taking a cue from the dead characters' lounge in Steven, the rest of the cast of Zippy gets together in the "Zippy Clubhouse" and sets out to find Zippy and reintegrate him into the strip.
GASOLINE ALLEY: Dammit! Walt is not dead. The driver of the poultry truck that was about to run him over last week can't believe it either. "I don't get it!" he says, accusingly. "One minute you're gonna get it an' the next ya don't!" You tell him! Wednesday, an Afro-American man in a turtleneck and checked sportcoat takes credit for pushing Walt out of the truck's path. "I'm Wynston, your guardian angel," he says. Oh, so he's Afro-celestial-American. That's why he says things like, "Amen, Brother!" For a minute there, we thought Scancarelli was actually going to integrate the strip. Instead, we get the Negro as Spiritually Gifted Other--cf. Don Cheadle in The Family Man, Michael Clarke Duncan in The Green Mile, Will Smith in The Legend of Bagger Vance," and Morgan Freeman in just about anything.
ZIGGY: Monday, a palmist tells Ziggy, "First off, by the number of your fingers, I can see that you're a cartoon character." This sends Funny Paper scurrying to last week's comics for the one in which Ziggy was brandishing a giant coffee mug. There, the bulb-nosed bumbler sported one-two-three-four-five digits on his left hand. Now, on the same hand, he's only got four. Are you Ziggy or Frodo?
Wednesday, Ziggy gets hopped up on nitrous.
MARMADUKE: Monday, Marmaduke sniffs deeply at the insides of a bag of dog food.
MARY WORTH: Silas Smedlap takes up the slack for the absent Ian, hoisting a glass and yammering interminably. Dinner will be at "the Peking Gate," he tells Mary on Monday. "I don't hanker for Chinese food, but it's a possible location for a chop house! . . . . Rumor is the owner has a 'yen' to unload the place . . . . (hic) . . . . I just made a pun!" Yen, huh? Tuesday, Mary snatches Silas' bottle away from him. "X*&X%!!" he snaps Wednesday. "What do you think you're doing?" "Hopefully I am assuring you will be sober when you call for me Silas!" she huffs. "I don't 'date' drunks! Also! . . . . I dislike being the target of profanity! . . . Kindly remember we're dining in a restaurant! . . . Not on the deck of a lobster boat!" After she retreats to her apartment, still clutching Silas' bottle, Mary calls the Widow Tully to say Smitty's in his cups. "You're joking!" Tully says Saturday. "Smitty is practically a teetotaler! Stand by, Mary! . . . When a rookie alcoholic and his sick daughter tangle, it'll be 'Katie, bar the door'!" "'Sick daughter'??" Mary thinks. "'Katie, bar the door'??" Funny Paper thinks. And don't be disparaging the lobster boats, Mary Worthless.
MARK TRAIL: Sweetie Pie the Unwelcome Deer comes home again. Tom, the husband who is jealous of Sweetie Pie, comes home again. The rifle comes out again. "Get back, Judy . . . This time I won't miss!" he barks Saturday. When Rusty tries to stop him in the last panel, he stiff-arms him to the ground--causing Andy to bare his teeth. You got more than a deer to deal with now, buddy.
Sunday's featured biological unit: the colorful, fragile world of angiosperms. "Flowering plants have influenced our lives from almost the first time they appeared on Earth. . . without them we humans wouldn't be here!" Wha-aat? Evolution theory? Is this why there was no Christ-reference in the Christmas holly strip? Are Dodd & Elrod losin' their religion?

text: On June 18, 2009, about 1030 eastern daylight time, a Schweizer 269C-1, N9421K, registered to North Bay Enterprises, Inc., operated by Ocean Helicopters, Inc., was substantially damaged during a forced landing near Naples Municipal Airport (APF), Naples, Florida. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 91 instructional flight from APF to Immokalee Regional Airport (IMM), Immokalee, Florida. The certificated commercial pilot, the sole occupant, was seriously injured. The flight from APF originated about 1 minute earlier.The pilot stated that he planned on performing a solo cross-country flight. Prior to departure he performed a preflight inspection with no reported discrepancies. Using the checklist he performed an "internal preflight" with nothing unusual noted. He started the engine and checked the magnetos noting both were within the 125 rpm maximum drop. He did not recall or report anything unusual about the rest of the pre-departure process.According to a transcription of communications with Naples Air Traffic Control Tower, at 1028:31, the pilot advised he was at Euro American ready to depart with automated terminal information service B. The tower controller cleared the flight for takeoff and to proceed southeast bound.The pilot further stated that after receiving the departure clearance, he initiated a hover of approximately 5 to 7 feet above ground level (agl). He then began the takeoff while paralleling runway 14 and began to climb at 55 and 60 knots indicated airspeed with almost 29 inches of manifold pressure. At the same time the engine rpm was near the bottom of the green arc. He lowered the collective down slightly to correct the high manifold pressure reading and also to increase engine rpm, and although the manifold pressure decreased, the engine rpm did not increase. He increased the throttle but there was very little response. About this time he began hearing an intermittent beeping from the low-rotor-rpm warning horn, and also reported that the sound from the engine was not typical, which felt sluggish. He turned to the left to return and the transcription of communications indicates that at 1030:09, the pilot advised the controller, "helicopter two one kilo has gotta return to the field." He kept the collective in the previously placed position and as he came out of the turn in a direction that he thought was towards the airport, he applied full or nearly full throttle. At the end of the turn, he heard the low-rotor-rpm warning horn go to a steady tone. The helicopter began descending at a rapid rate and he immediately started looking for a neutral landing spot. He aimed for an unoccupied pool and closed the throttle and lowered the collective. He recognized that he was unable to land in the pool and just prior to contact with a wood trellis and small building near the pool, he pulled collective. His injury precluded him from evacuating the wreckage; he was rescued by local fire rescue. He estimated the time from the perceived loss of engine power to landing was approximately 10 to 20 seconds.A pilot-rated witness reported that the takeoff and departure appeared normal to him with no observed unusual movements.PERSONNEL INFORMATIONThe pilot, age 56, holds a commercial pilot certificate with rating(s) airplane single engine land, airplane multi-engine land, instrument airplane, and holds a second class medical certificate with a limitation to have available glasses for near vision issued May 19, 2009.The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Pilot/Operator Aircraft Accident/Incident Report submitted by the pilot indicated his total time in all aircraft and in make and model are 1,423 and 19 hours, respectively. He listed having 7 hours as pilot-in-command in the accident make and model helicopter.AIRCRAFT INFORMATIONThe helicopter was manufactured in July 2003, by Schweizer Aircraft Corporation as model 269C-1, and was designated serial number 0153. It was powered by a 180 horsepower Lycoming HIO-360-G1A engine, which was equipped with Slick Model 4347 and 4370 magnetos for the left and right positions, respectively.Review of the maintenance records revealed the engine was removed for major overhaul on October 1, 2008; the major overhaul was signed off as being completed on November 11, 2008. The overhaul logbook entry indicates the magnetos were overhauled. The engine was reinstalled into the helicopter on February 25, 2009; the helicopter total time at that time was recorded to be 2,200.5 hours. Following engine installation after overhaul, the engine was inspected on February 26, 2009, April 2, 2009, and again on June 2, 2009. The engine had accumulated approximately 124 hours since overhaul at the time of the accident, and approximately 29 hours since the last 100-Hour inspection. There was no entry in the last annual or 100-Hour inspection entries indicating either magneto was removed and reinstalled, or removed and replaced.The mechanic who performed the last 100-Hour and annual inspections reported he inspected the engine using the engine manufacturer's guide as a reference, but also used the scope and detail specified in 14 CFR Part 43 Appendix D.While the engine manufacturer's 100-Hour inspection guide indicates to inspect the magneto breaker points for pitting and minimum gap, the mechanic who performed the last 100-Hour inspection stated he did not comply with this item. He further stated that he did not remove either magneto during either inspection, and if he had to adjust the magnetos during either inspection, he would have billed the customer an additional 30 minutes, which the invoices did not reflect.Review of 14 CFR Part 43 Appendix D revealed a mention to inspect the engine accessories for apparent defects in security of mounting.The pilot who flew the helicopter earlier that day for approximately 1.1 hours reported it performed normally throughout all phases of flight "…without anything remarkable." The hour meter used for billing indicated 2,800.3 hours at the end of his flight, and the same hour meter indicated 2,800.4 hours at the time of the accident, or an elapsed time of 6 minutes.METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATIONA surface observation weather report taken at Naples Municipal Airport at 0953, or approximately 37 minutes before the accident indicated the wind was from 060 degrees at 5 knots, the visibility was 10 statute miles, and few clouds existed at 5,000 feet. The temperature and dew point were 32 and 23 degrees Celsius, respectively, and the altimeter setting was 29.97 inches of mercury.COMMUNICATIONSThe pilot was in contact with the Naples Municipal Airport Air Traffic Control Tower. There were no reported communication difficulties.WRECKAGE AND IMPACT INFORMATIONThe helicopter crashed in a residential area; the accident site was located at 26 degrees 08 minutes 46.86 seconds North latitude and 081 degrees 45 minutes 53.69 seconds West longitude, or approximately 0.79 statute mile and 121 degrees from the center of the departure airport. The accident site was also located approximately 0.38 statute mile and 118 degrees from the approach end of runway 32.Examination of the accident site revealed the helicopter contacted a building and a trellis located adjacent to a community pool. The helicopter came to rest upright next to the building. No pre or postcrash fire was noted.Inspection of the helicopter before recovery revealed the fuel tank was nearly full with no fuel contaminants noted. The throttle was in the idle position, and the clutch actuator was in the normal position for full engaged. Inspection of the flight controls, tail rotor drive, and main rotor drive revealed no evidence of preimpact failure or malfunction.Following recovery of the helicopter, the engine was removed and inspected which revealed the right magneto remained installed in the accessory case but was against the counter clockwise (CCW) stop and the flange adjacent to the lower clamp was fractured. The as-found position of the right magneto was timed approximately 50 degrees before top dead center (specification is 25 degrees before top dead center). The right magneto was then properly timed to the engine which revealed one edge of the lower clamp was over the fracture. The left magneto was determined to be properly timed to the engine.The engine was then placed on a test stand with a test club propeller installed. The engine was started and operated for approximately 5 minutes. At the completion of the engine run, the exhaust gas temperatures of each cylinder were checked and the reading for the No. 2 cylinder was lower than the other cylinders. The issue was attributed to damage to the bottom spark plug lead for that cylinder caused during securing of the oil cooler. The damaged ignition lead was temporarily repaired and the engine was started and operated to 2,000 rpm and approximately 29 inches of manifold pressure. The magneto drops were each approximately 100 rpm. Differential compression testing of each cylinder after the engine run using 80 pounds-per-square inch (psi) revealed all cylinders were indicating greater than 74 psi.Following the engine run, each magneto was further inspected revealing an incorrect gasket between each magneto drive adapter assembly and magneto flange. The specified correct gasket between each magneto drive adapter assembly and magneto flange is part number (P/N) LW-12681, but the installed gasket was P/N 62224. Further inspection of the right magneto revealed the magneto drive coupling exhibited damage to both tips with shear lips noted. On one end of the drive coupling the shear lip was inwards, and the shear lip on the opposite end of the drive coupling was outwards. Further inspection of the left magneto was performed to determine the tightening torque of the securing nuts. The tightening torque was checked with a calibrated wrench revealing the upper nut was 122 inch pounds and the lower nut was 95 inch pounds (specification is 204 inch pounds). The upper and lower nuts were tightened to the specified torque value and each nut moved approximately ½ flat. The right magneto was retained for further examination.TESTS AND RESEARCHExamination of the right magneto was performed by the Safety Board's Materials Laboratory located in Washington, D.C. The results of the examination revealed the fracture surfaces of the clamping flange revealed matte gray roughly textured surfaces consistent with an overstress separation. Fracture traces indicated that the fracture initiated in the radius between the flange and the body on the outboard (away from the engine) surface and progressed inboard through the flange in a manner consistent with bending loads applied to the flange towards the engine case by the clamp. Inspections of the clamping surfaces of both the fractured flange and the intact opposite flange revealed marking in both the paint surface and the underlying metal surface indicating rotation of the installed magneto against the clamp blocks. The marking did not indicate a clear direction of motion; however, an impact dent in the body on the intact side established that the magneto had turned forcefully in the counterclockwise direction. Further examinations uncovered a curvilinear dent and partial shearing fracture that produced an attached sliver on the pilot diameter of the magneto. The curvilinear feature was diametrically opposed to the fractured flange and directly under the marks on the intact flange. The orientation of the feature and direction of shearing was consistent with the magneto being axially misaligned (cocked) in the pilot diameter of the engine accessory crankcase and then shifting to proper alignment.

Reaching The Peak
The greatest water requirement comes in weeks 10 to 17.
Although it seemed to be raining over most of the winter months, the reality is that the early winter received most of the rain, and it tapered off by mid-to-late winter. By spring, the soil profile, while containing more moisture than in several years, was rapidly depleting.
Climate predictions call for a dry May and June. Therefore, irrigation will be needed. The key is knowing exactly when the most moisture is needed for maximum yield and grade.
Know The Peak Need
John P. Beasley, Jr., University of Georgia Extension agronomist, says in the 20-week growing season for peanuts, the critical period for water comes from week 10 to week 17.
"A peanut crop needs 23 inches of water, but almost 19 inches of it are needed in that time frame. Week 10 to week 17 is the time for the highest water requirement in peanuts," he says.
Beasley notes that rarely do producers receive 23 inches of rainfall during the growing season.
"The closest we came to receiving that much rainfall during the growing season was in 2003," he says. "Therefore, in most every year we are in a rainfall deficit for peanut production."
Beasley says the key to growing any crop, peanuts included, is in knowing the water requirement for the crop and when it needs the most moisture. "The peak need for irrigation in corn is just after planting of cotton and peanuts."
Match The Growth Curve
Beasley says back in the early part of the decade when the states of Georgia, Florida and Alabama were in constant talks about the Flint River and possible restrictions were being bantered about, a group of University of Georgia Extension and research personnel had a meeting at the Stripling Irrigation Park in Camilla, Ga., with the sole purpose of coming up with strategies to reduce water use in peanut production.
"Prior to this, our standard recommendation was simply to apply two inches of water per week. So, we asked the question, 'What if we just put out an inch and a half per week?'
"What we determined was that producers could put out three-fourths of an inch with the pivot and then come back with the same amount for total of about one and a half inches.
"We adapted the growth stage water curve model to match putting out one and a half inches," he says. "What we have found out through our research is that we were watering too much early on and then not enough when the crop needed it."
• Avoid putting too much irrigation on early and not enough when the crop needs it
• The greatest water requirement is from week 10 to week 17
• Whatever the crop, know the water need and peak timing
• It is rare for a peanut crop's water requirement to be fully met by rainfall
• Use the scheduling method that fits your management style
• Attempting to apply water efficiently will affect the crop in a dry year
Use A Scheduling Method
Other irrigation research projects have looked at using an irrigation scheduling method, such as Irrigator Pro, the computer-based expert system, or the UGA EASY Pan, the low-cost wash tub and float method.
The UGA EASY (Evaporation-based Accumulator for Sprinkler-enhanced Yield) Pan Irrigation Scheduler is designed to provide in-field monitoring of crop water needs in humid areas for a fraction of the management time and cost associated with other irrigation scheduling methods. Irrigator Pro is one of the products and services offered through the USDA-ARS Web site. Other irrigation scheduling methods are available.
Strive For Efficiency
Beasley says the UGA EASY Pan often called for less irrigation events than other scheduling methods.
"It was interesting that even though EASY Pan was triggering less irrigation and less water and the crop did yield less, it came out better economically because of the cost of applying irrigation in that year," he says.
The scheduling method used depends entirely on the user and their comfort level with the method and calculations.
"As long as you try to water your peanuts efficiently, you will affect production in a dry year," Beasley says. PG

Chief Thundercloud was born on April 12th, 1899 Muskogee, Indian Territory, USA which is now known as Oklahoma City. His birth name was Victor Daniels and he was the first of nine children born to parents Dark Cloud and Morning Star.
Thundercloud was raised on a ranch in Arizona and went on to college at the University of Arizona in Tucson. He was very athletic and also excelled in his studies.
After he graduated from college he found work on cattle ranches, rodeos, a mining foreman and even got involved in boxing before deciding to relocate to Hollywood in the late 1920's.
His interest in the entertainment industry began first with trying to make a career out of singing tribal songs and working in the film industry as a stuntman. In 1938, he took on the character role of, Tonto, in a serial called, "The Lone Ranger" and then it's sequel, "The Lone Ranger Rides Again" (1939). It was this character he portrayed that earned him his stardom in the industry. He also played the lead role in a Paramount film called, "Geronimo" (1939).
Thundercloud married once to Frances Delmar, a former singer, and passed away rather young at the age of fifty six on December 1st, 1955, after receiving surgery for stomach cancer in Ventura County, California on November 30th, 1955. He was survived by his wife and their two children. He was interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.

Cute gold shoes
"I was looking for something more with a platform and a heel but these were just fine! I have a narrow heel so all my shoes look big on me when they are really not, this shoe covers up my heel just enough so it does not look weird!"

Hello wedding shoes
"I hate buying silver or gold shoes!!! But these are cute. I have a wedding coming up and the bride picked silver so hello silver shoes. Grrrr. These are perfect for the wedding and not that sparkly prom silver hype type of shoe so I am able to rock these with my distressed boyfriend jeans and a nice crop oversized shirt!!! It's funny how I always seem to buy this and two other brands unconsciously."

Nice but slippery
"These were exactly what I was looking for. Biggest issue I have with them is that the insoles have to be the slipperiest insoles known. Had to put additional insoles with a fabric surface in them for just this reason so that my feet didn't slide through the toe strap with every step, other than that was happy to be able to get them in black, white, and turquoise."

If the answer is yes ... come to Thailand for the Songkran festival and you will get your chance.
The Songkran festival is Thailand's traditional New Years. The date of the festival has moved around a lot over the years and was previously based on complex astrological calculations.
These days, the dates are fixed to April 13-15 ... the hottest time of the year in Thailand when temperatures regularly exceed 40 degrees centigrade. Given the heat .... it is little wonder why people have taken to having a massive public water fight as part of the festivities.

UMI Performance on-car single adjustable panhard bars control the side-to-side movement of the rear-end under the vehicle. The flex and bushing deflection found with the factory panhard bar lead to erratic handling and tire rubbing under hard loads. UMI Performance on-car single adjustable panhard bars use polyurethane bushings and a heavy-duty spherical rod end and are constructed from large 1.250 in. diameter tubing. Adjustable panhard bars are a must for rear-end centering after vehicle lowering, as well as clearance for running larger tires. The supplied rod end allows for adjustments on the car to quickly lengthen or shorten the panhard bars--they do not need to be removed to make adjustments. The spherical rod end/polyurethane bushing combination eliminates most rear-end bind, while not sacrificing your ride quality. These panhard bars are an excellent improvement for your street or drag application and they are also lighter then the factory panhard bars!

I picked up a Ruger LCP yesterday and I also bought a Fobus Evolution paddle holster from the Midway USA. If you are looking for a very nice concealable holster for your LCP, at a low price ($24.99), you can't go wrong with a Fobus.
I also ordered a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster for the LCP, while it is a good pocket holster, I find that my LCP has a tendency to "turn around and move" a lot in my 511 tactical pants.

Programmatical Reset for Query Results
Its recommended for performance reasons to avoid query automatically on large data sets, naturally we are not performing query by default in today sample application:
In order to have more complex case, let's declare required query criteria parameters. Finally, our query and results table will look like this:
In my sample, if user will press Reset button in af:query, results table will be cleared:
However, by default only query criteria parameters are cleared, results table will remain populated. In order to clear results table, I have implemented query operation listener in Backing Bean, where I'm calling Application Module method and triggering partial refresh for results table:
Custom method implemented in Application Module - doQueryResultReset() invokes executeEmptyRowSet() in order to clear rows from iterator. Additionally in our case, because we have required query criteria parameters, we need to remove View Criteria before invoking executeEmptyRowSet() and reapply it again:
Download sample application - QueryReset.zip

Is there a way to auto change the search results when the user chooses a new saved search rather then requiring user to click on the Search Button? What would I use to capture the change event for the user saved search selection -- as you have done with the Reset? Ideally there would be a button beside the saved search so user does not have to OPEN the search each time they want to change a saved search to a different query result set.

Ford Motor Co. Executive Chairman Bill Ford has shown Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder his company's newest and oldest offerings during a tour at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
Ford on Tuesday showed his friend and Republican governor gleaming new Fusion and Focus models. He also showed a decidedly older model - a 1903 Model A.
Ford says he recently bought the "oldest surviving Ford car in the world" at auction. He says it's one of three vehicles his great-grandfather Henry Ford hand-built on the "first day of business."
Next up for Ford? Learn its unfamiliar shift pattern and drive it.
Snyder told him that would be fun to figure out. Ford replied he'd "come over" to Snyder's house and "honk the horn loudly on the way over."

Shutdown Problem: LCD TV Sylvania LD320SS8
While the measuring of resistance, I find that none of the secondary windings were open, but what I noticed is that one of the secondary windings have a resistance much lower, so that all other I measured. All secondary windings have a resistance of between 522 and 527 ohm secondary winding and the suspect had a resistance of 495.4 ohms, about 30 ohms is less than the rest. It was a very good indication that the secondary winding was cut short. This is great on the test of HV transformers in most LCD TVs, to compare the test results of a transformer to another, usually a single high voltage transformers will go wrong, and it will be easy to identify when tested and compared against the other.

I think the boy lives in dictatorial paradise. He probably wants to convey, she will have to work like a slave, think like a slave, and behave like a slave. Such people never give unconditional love ..They will put condition everytime. and make the life of the girl like hell. Dont do job, work in home.. is the first command.. Then why select an educated girl ? Go for a matric failed girl.. Such people are afraid of their confidence. They fear competition from a wife.. They fear taunting from mother or sister.. " Joru ka gulam'' or so.Answered by subhash, 13 Aug '12 04:14 pm

In today's world if a boy is so conservative and has come up with such a condition I really don't think the girl should even consider the boy for marriage, leave alone accepting the conditions.Answered by payal, 13 Aug '12 12:34 pm
Today its these conditions, tomorrow there will be some more and at that time the girl may feel dominated and find herself suffocated in the relationship. So its better she thinks of the future and the upcoming problems......

Certainly not.. what happiness will the golden cage he has bought for her give her, what solace will the silence of her loved ones given her??? Even if it is a love marriage, a woman should NEVER compromise so much in any relationship! Such narrow mindedness will only give birth to a generation of weak hearted people..

Baseball fends off VMI in 12 innings 9-7
Smucker, Thomas, Nevares drive in 2 runs apiece; schedule changed for Sunday
March 2, 2013Tweet
Contact: John Hartrick (email@example.com)
LEXINGTON, Va.—Junior second baseman Daniel Nevares tied the game with a two-run single in the ninth inning and Binghamton (3-3) plated two runs in the 12th frame to battle past host VMI (4-7) 9-7 Saturday afternoon at Gray-Minor Stadium. The teams were supposed to play a doubleheader but with game 1 going nearly four hours amid below-40 degree temperatures, game 2 was pushed back to Sunday. The teams will play a seven-inning game followed by a nine-inning game Sunday with the first pitch set for noon.
After enduring a tough 3-2 loss in Friday's opener on a VMI late-inning homer, the Bearcats were three outs from another frustrating defeat before rallying for two runs in the ninth inning. Ahead 4-0 entering the bottom of the seventh, BU relievers surrendered six runs in the seventh and eighth innings but Binghamton's offense came to the rescue in the ninth and then after the teams each plated a run in the 10th inning, BU won it with a pair in the 12th.
Senior first baseman Jordon Smucker went 3-for-6 with two RBI, Nevares drove in two with his clutch ninth-inning hit and sophomore left fielder Jake Thomas had two RBI and scored three runs. Thomas also tied a school record with four walks, raising his team-best on-base percentage to .640. Junior third baseman Brian Ruby had two hits and an RBI. Smucker is hitting .409 in the early season and has a team-best nine RBI in six games. Nevares is hitting .400.
On the hill, senior starter Jay Lynch went 6.0 scoreless innings, allowing just three hits. Lynch struck out three and didn't walk a batter and departed with a 4-0 lead. Freshman Jake Cryts pitched the final two innings to notch his first collegiate win. Cryts allowed just one hit and struck out three.
The Bearcats snapped a scoreless tie with one run in the sixth inning. Thomas, Ruby and Nevares all walked and Smucker hit a fielder's choice grounder that resulted in a throwing error. But Binghamton left the bases loaded and only plated the one run. But one inning later, BU put three more runs on the board. Ruby delivered an RBI double and Smucker followed with a two-run single to right center.
Down 4-0, the Keydets got two back in their half of the seventh - both unearned runs after two singles and an infield throwing error. Then in the eighth inning, VMI sent eight hitters to the plate and scored four runs on four hits to take a 6-4 lead. The big blow was a two-out, two-run double.
Now behind 6-4, BU rallied in the ninth to extend the game. Junior center fielder Bill Bereszniewicz led off with a single, Thomas walked and Ruby dropped down a bunt single. Nevares then ripped a two-run single to left field, scoring Bereszniewicz and Thomas to tie the game.
The Bearcats took a 7-6 lead with a run in the top of the 10th inning. Junior shortstop John Howell led off with a single, moved to second on a sacrifice and third on a single by Bereszniewicz. Thomas then hit a fly ball to center field to score Howell with the go-ahead run. But the Keydets hit a home run to lead off the bottom of the frame and extend the game. VMI had the winning run on third base with two out in the 11th but Cryts got a groundout to second to keep his team alive.
In the 12th inning, Howell again reached base to open the inning. After sophomore right fielder Zach Blanden worked a walk, Bereszniewicz dropped down a sac bunt and Howell came around to score on an errant throw by the VMI catcher. Thomas then brought in Blanden with a run-scoring single to make it 9-7. The hosts used a one-out walk to bring the tying run to the plate but Cryts induced a pop-up and swinging strikeout to shut the door and end the game.
The teams combined to strand 27 baserunners with BU leaving 16 on base.
Juniors Jack Rogalla (game 1) and Mike Meleski (game 2) will start Sunday's games.

Celebrate Advocacy Month!
Spend the month of Cheshvan (Oct. 17-Nov. 14) engaging in advocacy work to raise the state minimum wage. From adult education, to student programming and Jewish text sources, be sure to use our Advocacy Month Resource Guide for all of your congregations' needs.
I. Background
II. Reform Jewish Postition
III. Legislative Update
IV. Related Links
V. Further Reading
VI. Talking Points
New York State's current minimum wage of $7.25 per hour translates into 82% of the 3 person federal poverty level. The last increase was 10 cents in July 2009, bringing New York's minimum wage up to the federal $7.25 per hour. An increase in the state minimum wage to $8.50 an hour would put the wages of a full-time minimum wage worker at 95% of the 3-person federal poverty line.
While critics argue that an increase in the minimum wage would reduce employment of low-wage workers, FPI (Fiscal Policy Institute), using Bureau of Labor statistics, shows the opposite. From the end of the first half of 2004, before New York State increased the minimum wage, to the end of the first half of 2005, after the increase, employment grew 1.8% in the retail trade and 2.7% in food service. In addition, some recent studies indicate that minimum wage increases have no impact on the number of jobs held or hours worked.
In an innovative approach, legislative leaders from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are pushing a unified approach to promote higher minimum wages. New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and his counterparts, Speaker Sheila Oliver in New Jersey and Chris Donovan in Connecticut want to defuse the argument by critics and some business groups that a state puts itself at a disadvantage if it increases the minimum wage when neighboring states do not.
These legislators want to increase the minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $8.50 in New York and New Jersey and to $9.75 over two years in Connecticut where it's already $8.25. Bills have been introduced in each of the state's legislatures but haven't been passed yet.
II. Reform Jewish Position
If there is a single common theme running throughout our Jewish tradition, it is that of social justice. Our scriptures teach us to support the widow, to extend our hands to the downtrodden. Our tradition demands that we "speak up, judge righteously, champion the poor and the needy (Proverbs 31:9)." As Jews, we have an obligation not only to feed the hungry but also to help those in need become self-sufficient (Maimonides, Mishneh Torah).
The Torah also emphasizes the importance of a worker's wages. "You shall not abuse a needy and destitute laborer...but you must pay him his wages on the same day, for he is needy and urgently depends on it (Deuteronomy 24:14-15)." A similar statement appears in Leviticus, "You shall not defraud your neighbor, nor rob him; the wages of he who is hired shall not remain with you all night until the morning (Leviticus19:13)." The Torah further expresses a commitment to economic justice in the remark, "If one hires a worker to work with straw and stubble and the worker says to him, "Give me my wages," if the employer says, "take the results of your labor as payment," we do not listen to him (Mishnah Bava Metziah 10:5).
The Reform Jewish Movement has long been a voice for social and economic justice. As early as 1965, the Union of Reform Judaism (URJ) passed a resolution entitled "The Eradication and Amelioration of Poverty" which urged the federal government to adopt measures "which would assure every man willing and able to work at a wage which makes possible a decent standard of living."
In 1999 both the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR) and the Union of Reform Judaism passed resolutions supporting living wage campaigns, including supporting living wage ordinances and bills to bring wages to at least the poverty line, and encouraging rabbis and members of their congregations to be involved in living wage campaigns.
URJ Resolution, The Eradication and Amelioration of Poverty (1965)URJ Resolution, Living Wage Campaigns (1999)CCAR Resolution, Living Wage Campaign (1999)
Since our founding in 2002, Reform Jewish Voice of New York State (RJV) has supported an increase in the minimum wage. In 2004, there was a real opportunity to see our advocacy come to fruition when both the Assembly and Senate voted to increase the minimum wage however, Governor Pataki vetoed the measure.
RJV continued to speak with legislators requesting them to vote to override the veto. We were successful and the first phase of an increase went into effect on January 1, 2005 with additional increases up to $7.25 by mid 2009. RJV is again advocating for an increase in the minimum wage and while we believe that a $10 per hour minimum wage is our preferred choice to bring minimum wage workers above the poverty level, we would support the proposed increase to $8.50 per hour effective January 1, 2013 with annual adjustments beginning in January 2014, as a good first step.
The last increase was 10 cents in July 2009, bringing New York's minimum wage up to the federal $7.25 per hour. Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver proposed increasing the NYS minimum wage to $8.50 per hour on January 1, 2013 and to annually adjust the minimum for changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) beginning January 2014. An increase in the state minimum wage to $8.50 an hour would put the wages of a full-time minimum wage worker at 95% of the 3-person federal poverty line.
Legislation to implement this proposal has been introduced (A9148/S6413) but no action has been taken. Speaker Silver held hearings this session but Senate Majority Leader Skelos opposes increasing the minimum wage and does not want the Senate to act on it.
At the federal level, New York Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand are co-sponsors of the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2012, legislation introduced by Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa, which seeks to raise the federal minimum wage, and thereby the threshold that states are required to meet, from $7.25 to $9.80 an hour by 2014.
Eighteen states and the District of Columbia have minimum wage levels above $7.25. RJV is again advocating for an increase in the New York State minimum wage to $8.50 per hour effective January 1, 2013 with annual adjustments beginning in January 2014, as a good first step towards bringing minimum wage workers above the poverty line.

This Little Underground: Music vs. SeaWorld, the Thermals
Our music columnist also covers a special Record Club meeting, Guardian Alien, Black Tide, Beach Day and Good Graeff
Published: December 18, 2013
The music world officially joins the protest against SeaWorld as the parade of performer cancellations continues for what little's left of the Bands, Brew and BBQ concert series (See "The Blackfish Effect" in Happytown). Time to seriously rethink Shamu, SeaWorld.
To commemorate the 25th anniversary of landmark albums from the class of 1989, a Record Club will hold a special New Year's Day edition (6-11 p.m. Jan. 1, Lil Indies) of its monthly listening/discussion gathering to cover five classics (Rhythm Nation, 3 Feet High and Rising, Bleach, Paul's Boutique and Pretty Hate Machine).
And finally, the wait is over, mental patients. Next column (Jan. 1) presents the annual Undie awards!
The Beat
I don't know what it is about stylistically diverse bills that seems to throw people off like some sort of Jedi mind-scramble shit, but you guys missed a pretty special one by Norse Korea co-headlined by Pontiak and Guardian Alien (Dec. 8, Will's Pub). The two bands are Thrill Jockey label-mates touring together despite little stylistic common ground, none of which should matter when both are this good.
Virginia's Pontiak, whose slab riffage is much more my jam, laid their rock heaviness down nice and thick. But NYC experimentalists Guardian Alien, who seemed more collected and concentrated this time than at their March performance here, delivered the knockout of the night with a mobbing set of primordial hive-rock.
The ride of their show is so twisting and dizzying that it should require seatbelts. But they could easily recede into the nebulous murk that often marks experimental music were it not for bandleader Greg Fox, whose command and unorthodox order anchor everything. The man's drumming is just titanic. His often massive sounds are powerful, dense and perpetually busy with builds that tingle the scalp and move the Earth. With unpredictable patterns but a tangible groove, Fox packs the lock step of a studied drummer with the sheer visceral excitement of Lightning Bolt. Although underground, he is one of the most stunning and interesting drummers working today. And when he's surrounded by his bandmates' high-flying swarm of noise and drone, well, it's some storm.
Click to see more photos of the Thermals, Beach Day and Good Graeff
The Thermals (Dec. 9, the Social) were, as always, the Thermals. And that's a good thing. Even if their new album is the rare disappointment, they're still great live. Their minimal setup at maximum pitch is still as effective as ever and one of the most dialed-in formulas around. And powered by Hutch Harris' distinctive and rousing John Darnielle-on-fire expression, they can still throw gasoline on a crowd like few can.

As we took our assembly-line positions at the table last week, I thought of the 1952 "I Love Lucy" episode titled "Job Switching," in which Lucy and Ethel take a job in a candy factory after Ricky and Fred say housework is much easier than earning money outside the home.
It would have been no use to tell the Boyd-Buchanan fourth- and fifth-graders working beside me in Jeff Gymnasium what I was thinking because they would have never heard of "I Love Lucy" or Lucille Ball.
In the episode, ranked No. 2 in TV Guide's list of "100 Most Memorable Moments in TV History" in 1996, the girls are given the job of wrapping chocolate candies as they come down an assembly line. Initially, they are able to keep up but soon fall way behind. By the time the supervisor approaches, they are stuffing their mouths full of the candies, putting them down their blouses and hiding them under their hats.
When the supervisor sees no chocolates out of place, she compliments them and orders the machine be sped up.
Uh oh.
Instead of candy last week, it was packets of rice being prepared for the Feed My Starving Children organization. These packets, I was told later, would likely wind up in Haiti.
The goal was to pack 1.5 million meals, and the hundreds of volunteers in Chattanooga reached the mark by packing 1,501,632 meals over four days.
Boyd-Buchanan School President Jill Hartness had volunteered her school to host the Minnesota organization's second big local MobilePack because she thought it would be a good way for her students to understand the service component within the school's discipline.
So, in addition to the dozens of us adults, there were several hundred school children in grades third through fifth.
All wearing hairnets.
Adults, where possible, were asked to be sealers. Their job was to press the air out of the completed bags of rice, protein, vegetables and vitamins, then hold them under stapler-like machines that would heat-seal them.
Once, one of the adults at the table — probably a wise teacher who knew her students — suggested specific places for the students, we were off. One student would place a plastic bag under a hopper, then consecutive students and/or adults would dump in proper amounts of ingredients.
The completed bags — six meals per bag — were weighed, ingredients taken out or put in to achieve proper weight, then passed on to the sealer.
Sealing, we were told in our instructions, was a two-person job. The adult — that would be me — held the bag under the sealer, and a person of any age would lower the sealer onto the bag.
Fourth-grader Charlie Caballero was my first partner. Ol' Charlie got a kick out of his job, told me how excited he was to be helping other people and opined that it might be the hardest job in the line.
"Might be," I said as I pulled my fingers back from the edge of the bag ahead of his latest smash.
Once sealed, the bag was passed on to be boxed.
With the teacher's initial appointees in specific positions, bag after bag after bag came down the pike. Fortunately, they would sit in a box lid until we sealed them up. I didn't have to hide one bag in my pocket. When the teacher let the students change positions to experience each job — just like a teacher to be fair — the process thankfully slowed down a bit.
I don't know which table packed the most boxes of meals, but I'd put our group — even dancing as they did to the likes of Taylor Swift and Carly Rae Jepsen as they worked — up against anybody.
Several of the students were incredulous there was such starving in the world in the first place.
