Farmers can learn more about adding irrigation to their operations at a free educational session later this month.
"Overhead Irrigation Basics" will be held Jan. 22 in the Home Economics building at the Tippecanoe County Fairgrounds, at 1010 Teal Road in Lafayette.
The all-day session will feature Lyndon Kelley, an Extension irrigation specialist for both Purdue University and Michigan State University, as well as industry experts and farmers who have successfully incorporated irrigation into their businesses.
"Irrigation reduces risk for farmers by supplying water - often the limiting factor to yield," Kelley said. "With irrigation, producers are managing the greatest variability in yield."
Kelley said irrigation is becoming increasingly important to farmers because input costs continue to rise and because of drought in recent years.
"There has been a huge expansion in Indiana - more than 5 percent per year, 1997 through 2007 - and still accelerating according to irrigation equipment suppliers," Kelley said.
In many areas, the increase in seed and specialty crop production drives expansion of irrigated acres.
"Sandy or light ground with irrigation is a specialty crop mecca by reducing risks associated with drought and delayed planting or fieldwork delay," Kelley said.
But irrigation in standard corn or soybean rotations has begun to look favorable and economical in water-limited soils.
"Commodity prices over the past four years have made irrigation very economical in areas where soil moisture limits crop yield," Kelley said.
Topics at the session include irrigation economics, design, equipment, energy options, water requirements and water source options.
Organizer Curt Emanuel, Clinton County Extension educator, has requested continuing education units - CEUs - for Certified Crop Advisers and said those should be available to attendees. Questions about the session should be directed to Emanuel at 765-659-6380. An event brochure is available at http://www3.ag.purdue.edu/counties/clinton/Documents/Irrigation_IN%20Jan%2022%202013.pdf

A lieutenant colonel who saw his sexual assault conviction overturned in part because a three-star general thought he was a committed husband turns out to have a child from an affair more than eight years ago, the Air Force confirmed.
A command-directed investigation substantiated allegations Lt. Col. James Wilkerson had an extra-marital affair that produced a child, according to a news release from the Twelfth Air Force.
Wilkerson, an F-16 pilot and former inspector general, was convicted in November of sexually assaulting a sleeping house-guest at Aviano Air Base, Italy. In February, Lt. Gen. Craig Franklin reversed that decision — a move that incited a conflagration among lawmakers and victim advocates who have since called for sweeping changes to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
In April, the Air Force released a six-page memo Franklin wrote defending his decision, which went against the recommendation of his staff judge advocate.
"I was perplexed in relation to this conundrum — Lt. Col. Wilkerson was a selectee for promotion to full colonel, a wing inspector general, a career officer, and described as a doting father and husband. However, according to the prosecution, [Wilkerson,] in the middle of the night, decided to leave his wife sleeping in bed, walk downstairs past the room of his only son and then decided to commit the egregious crime of sexually assaulting a sleeping woman who he and his wife had only met earlier that night," Franklin wrote.
Franklin also said the clemency package submitted on behalf of Wilkerson was among the most extensive he'd ever seen. Dozens of people wrote character letters on Wilkerson's behalf.
Wilkerson's wife, Beth Wilkerson, and father-in-law, retired Col. Omer Ward, have adamantly defended him. Ward told Air Force Times in November that Beth Wilkerson had no reason to lie. "She told me when she found about this, 'If I caught my husband in bed with a woman like they said I did, I would leave him in a heartbeat.'"
Adultery is a crime in the military but has a five-year statute of limitations. The Air Force news release said Wilkerson could not be court-martialed or brought before an Article 15 hearing for the affair but Twelfth Air Force commander Lt. Gen. Robin Rand "took appropriate administrative actions."
The Air Force said the Privacy Act prevented the disclosure of those actions without Wilkerson's permission.
Wilkerson is declining all requests for interviews and statements, Twelfth Air Force spokesman Capt. Justin Brockhoff said in an email.
Franklin could not immediately be reached for comment.
Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., who has helped lead the charge to change the UCMJ, also declined to comment.
New bills introduced in the House and Senate would prevent a commander from overturning a verdict handed down by judge or jury or reducing a sentence without explanation.

Hourly wages for temporary workers under the federal government's H-2A program will go up in Florida and other U.S. states in 2012 and down in California and others.
On Dec. 22, the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration announced its 2012 Adverse Effect Wage Rates for the employment of temporary or seasonal nonimmigrant foreign workers to perform agricultural work.
The wages are adjusted annually to help ensure that the wages of similarly employed U.S. workers are not adversely affected.
H-2A wages will go up in Florida and other major fruit and vegetable-producing states and down in California and other states.
Florida's hourly wage jumps from $9.50 to $9.54; Washington's from $10.60 to $10.92; Idaho's from $9.90 to $10.19; Arizona's from $9.60 to $9.94; Texas's from $9.65 to $9.88; Georgia's from $9.12 to $9.39; and New York's from $10.25 to $10.56.
California's H-2A wage falls from $10.31 to $10.24 and New Jersey's from $10.60 to $10.34.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/10/2013 (1421 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I'm in a dilemma. Like everyone out there, I do tend to get lonely. At the same time, I'm cautious about who I'm with, or what other people will think, especially my parents. In past relationships, none of them worked out due to complications of jealousy or lies. In each one I have broken it off as I couldn't handle the stress. It was rather annoying, so I have thought of taking a break from relationships. Until now. I have met someone. Actually, we've known each other for two years and have recently been hanging out and dating in secrecy. Here is my problem: I'm not ready for the big step because of the past experiences. To top it off, there are my parents' opinions on who I should and shouldn't date.
I believe I'm old enough to make my own choices without my parents being upset with me, so I am asking you: should I give this person a chance to see how this relationship will go or should I take a longer break due to past relationship experiences? -- Dilemma Girl, Winnipeg
Dear Dilemma Girl: Hiding this guy away is not standing up and showing strength. Show him and your parents you are older than they think. You have to start acting in a mature fashion, in order for your parents to understand you are capable of handling your own love life and not being constantly upset by it. So bring your new boyfriend out of the dark closet and introduce him around. Try to work problems out with him as soon as they come up and be sure to share your values with him right now. If he's a guy who thinks that "all is fair in love" is a good belief, and he doesn't want to be monogamous or doesn't care about pesky little lies, he's not the guy for you -- the sooner he gets the boot, the better. But if you have chosen well, this time try to build on the relationship instead of jumping ship.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I just took a taxi to my friend's house and I'm crying and writing you after being thrown out of my boyfriend's house where I have been living. I came home and all my clothes and stuff were thrown out on the driveway. OK, I was out all night, but I wasn't having sex with anyone. I got caught once and promised I'd never do that again and I haven't, but I'm a musician and I like to party hard.
I get off work late at night and need time to wind down. My boyfriend works at 7 a.m. and is up by 6 a.m. every weekday morning That's how come he caught me out so late. I pulled in at 7:30 a.m. and my stuff was out on the driveway already. Why is he so hard on me? He knows playing music is my lifestyle. -- Musician to the Core, Winnipeg
Dear Musician: Unfortunately, once you get off that stage it's not all about you. Coming home at daybreak doesn't wash with anyone, even long-time partners of musicians. Maybe 3 a.m. would make sense, but the rest is pure indulgence on your part unless you partner is with you. You've already been caught cheating on him, so you're not in any position to complain about his being upset. Although staying out all night is not complete proof of cheating, it reeks of it.
Please send your questions or comments c/o email@example.com or mail letters to Miss Lonelyhearts c/o Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R2X 3B6

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - After a two-day hiatus as Superstorm Sandy moved through a dozen states on the East Coast and northeastern United States, Republican Mitt Romney resumed his campaign for president Wednesday in the state the biggest prize among the swing states: Florida. Without the Sunshine State's 29 electoral votes, Romney will have an uphill and limited path to electoral victory.
On the stage of Metropolitan Park edged by pumpkins and flanked by Red Cross banners, Romney took a softer tone as he tried to close the deal with voters.
UNCUT: Mitt Romney's Metro Park speech
"We face some real challenges, but I have to tell you good things are going to happen in America, and I'm optimistic about our future. I understand what it takes to get this country going again and bring back the kind of greatness that we depend upon," Romney told a crowd estimated at more than a thousand. "You see, I actually have a plan for getting America back, and for strengthening our foundation, and my plan creates some 12 million jobs, and that, by the way, creates more take home pay, which people badly need."
Romney avoided mentioning his opponent by name, but did blame the current administration's policies for failing to tun the country's economy around.
Former Gov. Jeb Bush and congressman and U.S. Senate hopeful Connie Mack, spoke before Romney took the stage at this Halloween night "victory rally."
It was Romney's fourth visit to Jacksonville this year.
"Today we wanted to make sure we kept a positive tone and talked about what the governor would hope to do on Day One of his presidency," adviser Kevin Madden said aboard Romney's campaign plane.
That's exactly what Romney did in campaign speeches that were stripped of his standard anti-Obama political jabs.
"We can't change the course of America if we keep on attacking each other. We have got to come together," Romney said.
Supporters soaked up every word.
"I think that he hit things right on the point," Cecelia Beinkamben said after the speech. "I think he's got a plan, he's got focus, he's got a vision and we're just real excited to follow him and see where it leads us."
The Obama campaign dispatched Biden to play defense in Florida on Wednesday, with stops in the smaller, more conservative markets of Sarasota and Ocala aimed at narrowing the margin where Republicans usually fare well.
First Lady Michelle Obama will speak at a midday Thursday rally at the Prime Osborn Convention Center, then move on to Daytona Beach and Miami. Doors open for that event at 9:30 a.m. and Stevie Wonder is scheduled to appear before the first lady's remarks.
Ryan was campaigning across his home state of Wisconsin before planning to take his children trick or treating. Wisconsin is part of the Romney-Ryan campaign's eleventh-hour strategy of trying to put Democratic-leaning states in play and forcing Obama to shift resources to areas he has expected to win.
In tempered remarks, Ryan never explicitly criticized Obama and asked for prayers and donations for storm victims. The move reflected advice from his top aides to eschew partisanship for fear of appearing too shrill and strike a more civil tone in his critique of the president heading into the heart of the crisis. Plus, Romney and Ryan are still making attempts to win over moderate and undecided voters who have little patience for unbridled partisanship.
Ryan argued that Wisconsin was a battleground that will help decide the election and urged supporters to work hard for the next week so they have no regrets. "When we wake up a week from this morning, let's make sure we did everything we could," Ryan said.
Rather than use the campaign's final Wednesday to woo voters in tossup states, Obama donned hiking shoes for a disaster tour with Christie, one of Romney's most prominent supporters and a frequent Obama critic. But Christie praised Obama's handling of the storm, a political twist the president's visit is sure to underscore.
Romney spokesman Kevin Madden declined to echo Christie's positive reviews.
"I refer to Gov. Christie's remarks. I believe the response is still going on, so I'm not in a position to qualify the response by the federal government," Madden said aboard Romney's campaign plane. At the same, he said Romney would continue to moderate his tone while campaigning in Florida while Obama toured the damage in New Jersey.
Obama senior adviser David Axelrod said the president and his campaign agreed that his job was to stay in Washington in face-to-face touch with those responsible for recovery.
But Axelrod added: "We passed a threshold here. And we do have an election on Tuesday. So we owe it to folks to make the final arguments and we're going to do that."
Overall, though, Axelrod said the superstorm "tended to freeze this race. Wherever you think the race is, it tended to freeze the race. Because people are focused on the storm. That's what's been in the news."

Steeple-Ashton-based amateur weatherman Geoff Witts has recorded the deepest overnight snowfall since 1985.
Mr Witts has been monitoring the weather in Wiltshire for 45 years, and reported 100ml of snow at 9am this morning.
He said: "The last time I measured 100ml of snow was way back in 1985, when we had 100 one day and then 70 the next.
"I've checked my records and more recently we had 80ml in January 2010 and in February 2009, when we had four days of heavy snow.
"Measuring snow isn't an exact science, but I'm fairly confident it's the most depth we've had for a very long time."
The temperature at 9am was -0.5 degrees, which could mean more snow to come. Mr Witts said: "As long as it stays below zero it's going to keep coming."

Former gravel pits in Ben Rhydding will be officially opened as Bradford District's newest nature reserve – almost half a century after the potential of the area was recognised.
Ben Rhydding Gravel Pits Local Nature Reserve will be formally opened on Tuesday May 6, when the Lord Mayor of Bradford will join local conservation and wildlife groups at the reserve.
The riverside wildlife area, off Coutances Way, site is managed by Wharfedale Naturalists Society in partnership with the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council.
The partnership started in 2007 due to concerns over the site's deterioration particularly due to invasive weeds. A management plan was agreed to maintain and enhance the sites biodiversity. Implementation has been though regular volunteer work parties.
Following consultation with Natural England, the site was officially declared a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) – only the third to be declared in the Bradford District.
The official opening celebrates the achievements of local volunteers and our shared commitment to supporting wildlife in Wharfedale and the Bradford District.
But the potential of the gravel pits as a nature reserve was recognised at least 48 years ago.
Biology teacher and lifelong natural history enthusiast, Joan Elizabeth Duncan – who later received an MBE for her services to Yorkshire wildlife – wrote to the Gazette in 1966, suggesting it could become an educational nature reserve.
Running alongside the River Wharfe, the formal gravel pits have a variety of habitats including marshy grassland and a lagoon with yellow water-lilies.
A variety of wildflowers can be seen from May to July, including marsh orchids. The river is home to otters, waterfowl, waders and kingfishers.
Warblers nest in the summer, which is also a good time to see dragonflies. More than 20 butterfly species have been recorded.
The nature reserve is next to land owned by Ilkley Angling Association, which has mounted a simultaneous programme of improvements.
The opening will be at 7pm, followed by an informal walk around the reserve at 7.30pm.
The reserve is located alongside the River Wharfe between Ben Rhydding and Manor Row on the A65/Coutances Way.

10 milestones The Foundation's (success) story
1st milestone
The UBS Optimus Foundation was founded December 17, 1999 by UBS with the aim that the bank would participate in charitable activities with its clients.
- Red desk - Symbol of the foundation
2nd milestone
Children are at the center of all aid projects, a direction that was cemented in the first three years of operation. The Foundation ultimately decided that the areas of "Education & Protection" and "Health" would receive most attention. Its work is not only focused on the "Millennium Development Goals", but also aims to provide long-term assistance to deal with other neglected subjects that previously received few pledges of money.
- Grant areas
3rd milestone
In 2003, the Foundation Board decided to focus on the area of "Protection from Violence & Sexual Abuse" with the aim of funding related projects, breaking the taboo on the subject and strengthening protection of children against sexual abuse.
- Protection from Violence & Sexual Abuse
4th milestone
The Stop Buruli Initiative saw the light in summer 2007. It marked the first time that the Foundation became active in determining a neglected theme and in convening an internationally organized consortium of experts to research the insidious Buruli ulcer disease.
- Stop Buruli
5th milestone
The Regional Office Southern Africa was founded in February 2008. The team provides on-the-ground and efficient support and control of the local partner organizations and projects in the focal region of Southern Africa.
- Regional Office Southern Africa
6th milestone
In the spring of 2008 the Foundation was evaluated by an external non-profit consultancy - FSG – Social Impact Advisors. The key question was how to achieve the maximum humanitarian impact from the donations, in the light of what had been achieved so far. The study recommended defining the focus of projects even clearer and more specifically. In addition, successful project approaches should be replicated in other regions and countries.
7th milestone
In summer 2008 the Foundation initiated the Optimus Study Initiative. It brings together experts from Switzerland and China with the aim of generating more data from both countries on the frequency and types of child sexual abuse.
8th milestone
In March 2009 the Foundation Board approved a new strategic focus. From then on, it has focused on innovative projects that pursue completely new and unconventional approaches in solving problems. The new strategy is based on the value chain model in which the projects are developed as core ideas after the innovation phase, and then replicates the successful approaches as programs. At the end of the value chain are the initiatives for international research consortia to tackle neglected subjects.
- Grant areas
9th milestone
The school project for girls and young women in Zambia that we have supported for several years was replicated from 2009 as a program in Malawi. Like the first project, this program is being handled by our experienced partner organization CAMFED. In replicating the school model in Malawi, the aspect of child protection also plays an important role.
10th milestone
Under the motto "Give community a voice", the UBS Optimus Foundation brought together around 150 representatives of charitable organizations and grantmaking foundations from over 50 countries. The symposium marked the ten years jubilee of the foundation an took place at the Wolfsberg conference center in Novemeber 2010.
Contributions from over 10,500 donors have enabled us to provide more than 100 million Swiss francs in support to 230 projects in 65 countries over the last 10 years.

ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia legislators thwarted on Wednesday an attempt by Alabama and Florida to limit how much water metro Atlanta and North Georgia can take from federal reservoirs.
The U.S. Senate voted 83-14 to approve a changed version of the Water Resources Development Act without including an earlier restriction backed by Sen. Jeff Session, R-Ala. That rule would have undercut an appellate court finding that metro Atlanta can legally take water from Lake Lanier on the Chattahoochee River. The ruling prevented a water crisis for Georgia and proved a major legal setback for Alabama and Florida.
Lake Lanier is part of a system formed by the Apalachicola, Chattahoochee and Flint rivers that serves all three states. Georgia wants more water from Lake Lanier to serve a growing population. Alabama and Florida have opposed the request, arguing that metro Atlanta uses too much water upstream, leaving too little for downstream communities, industry and wildlife. Alabama and Georgia have a separate conflict over the watershed formed by the Alabama, Coosa and Tallapoosa rivers.
"We have always believed that this dispute must be solved at the state level, not in Washington," Chambliss and Isakson said in a statement last week.
A spokesman for Sessions said he could not immediately comment on the vote.
Under the plan supported by Sessions, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would have been forced to seek congressional approval anytime a request for municipal or industrial water cumulatively changed the storage plans for a federal reservoir by 5 percent or more. Water providers say Georgia has exceeded that threshold at both Lake Lanier and Lake Allatoona. Given the political feud between the states, it was uncertain whether Congress would have approved giving Georgia more water.
The restriction on water use would have affected all federal reservoirs, though it would have carried immediate consequences in the Southeast.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., tried unsuccessfully on behalf of the Alabama and Florida delegations to restore the water restriction after Georgia's Senate delegation had it struck from the bill. Rubio said resolving the dispute would end the damage that low water levels have inflicted on the oyster fishery in Apalachicola Bay and other industries.
Instead, the legislation backed by the Senate urges the governors of Alabama, Florida and Georgia to negotiate a resolution to the water conflict.
The fight could resurface when the House of Representatives drafts its version of the water bill. A dozen members of Georgia's House delegation have signed a joint letter asking the leaders of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure from supporting any rules "that could be viewed as taking sides in this interstate dispute," the letter said.

Henry Cole visited the Veteran's hospital at Beauvoir, Jeff Davis home and was buried there in 1923.
Search through millions of records to find out more.
Henry Cole visited the Veteran's hospital at Beauvoir, Jeff Davis home and was buried there in 1923.
Biloxi, MS
Henry A. Cole died in 1923 and was buried at Beauvoir Cemetery for Confederate Veterans. His unit was incorrectly listed a CO. A, 37 MISS ---but the records at Beauvoir confirmed this was the same Henry Cole of CO A, 30 MISS.
23 November 1863 — Chattanooga, TN
Pvt Henry Cole enlisted in Co. A, "Neil's Guards", of 30th Mississippi Regiment that was part of General Walthall's Brigade that defended Lookout Mountain. The Battle of Lookout Mountain was fought on 23 November 1863, when 1/3 of his brigade was captured while fighting around the base of Lookout Mountain.
Pvt Henry Cole was transferred to St. Louis and then to Rock Island Prison in Illinois. Rock Island had a death rate that winter that some say exceeded the death rate at Andersonville. Service Records show that Pvt Cole was released from prison and sent to Hospital No. 9 in Richmond Virginia in April 1865. In his Pension Application, he stated that he returned home the day(or so?) after General Lee's surrender.
Family history said Henry Cole ran away from home when the war begin as he was only 16 and too young to enlist. Company A was originally raised in his county he probably knew some soldiers in that unit. My belief is that he was able to locate the 30th Mississippi Regiment and worked for them as a contract wagon driver or mule skinner. Another soldier in this same company was Benjamin Tucker---also a native of Carroll County. Henry Cole would marry the widow of Pvt Benjamin Tucker and raise their 2 children.
Pvt Henry A. Cole joined Company A, 30th Mississippir Regiment, which was originally raised from Black Hawk and Carroll County area. Henry Cole was too young to enlist at the beginning of the war but finally enlisted the day before the Battle of Lookout Mountain.
Pvt Benjamin Tucker was also from Carroll County and a member of Company A, 30 Mississippi Regiment. His service records indicated he was a wagon driver. I suspect that Henry Cole was employed as a contract laborer before he was old enough to enlist. Even though Benjamin Tucker was several years older, he probably knew him. Benjamin Tucker was killed at Atlanta in 1864 and left a widow and two children.
After the war, Henry Cole married the widow of Benjamin Tucker. The two children's appear on census rolls under the name of Tucker and then Cole. However, as adults they retained their Tucker name.
BTW, in the 1870 Census, Henry is listed under the name of COAL.

I think I'm gonna throw up....
http://www.nba.com/clippers/news/gra...e-ill-be-happy"It's still kind of surreal honestly," Granger said Friday afternoon. "I've been in Indiana my whole career. I've always seen 'Granger 33' with Pacers on top of it. So, it's going to be a change, but I'll be happy."
"I think I bring another dynamic," Granger said. "I'm a bigger small forward. I can play the 4 as well. And I can shoot the ball and when you add that to the type of offense that we have: up-tempo, shoot a lot of threes, go out and space the court. That's the kind of offense that I think I would thrive in."
"I definitely have gotten healthy," Granger said. "Now it was just a matter of getting my game back and getting my feel and I was on track. I'm still feeling good. So, I still feel like I have a lot to offer and I like the way I'm going."
"The [Clippers'] offense isn't very structured and when you have that freedom you can really thrive," he said. "The last time I played in an offense like that was probably three or four years ago where it's up and down, you throw it ahead, you can attack the rim, you have lobs because you're spacing the floor. When you have Blake [Griffin] and DeAndre Jordan you just throw it by the rim. It's a really unique way to play and a lot of fun."
Clippers were the ideal landing spot for me. Got tickets to tomorrow's game in hopes he suits up!
I would much rather Danny wear a blue and white "LA" jersey than a gold and purple one. That would be much tougher for me personally.
Go get'em Danny!

The one over the back of the chair looks like a Colts jersey.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
It's not quite as odd as I thought it would be. The blue is a nice transition for us.
Side note: Does anyone else think the white jersey on the hanger looks like a Pistons jersey from the back? Nearly enough to make me puke in my mouth a little.
Good for Danny. Hope he has a great season and gets one more decent contract for his career.
At least the Clippers have among the best looking gear in the NBA. Pacers fans that buy a Granger jersey are going to look a lot better than the Manning fans in those orange atrocities.
Yeah, they really do. Even their sleeved jersey is the lesser of the sleeved jersey evils. Just a clean look with classic colors.
I think he'll be happy and I'm glad for that. But Granger is now a 4 until he proves otherwise. He's not getting any younger, so it's best he transition to the 4. That could extend his career.
Also, he's right about thriving in LA. The Clippers offense is up-tempo, unstructured, lots of threes...just like the JOb years. But the losses shouldn't pile up as bad due to that failed strategy because the Clips have more talent.
The bad news is that he's still not healthy. Not physically nor mentally. His game is not back for at least one of those reasons if not both. He's also not attacking the rim. Not even the bottom of the rim. He may be able to lob to Blake and Deandre, but he's not about to be attacking the rim. Instead he will be playing from 25 or more feet away to space the floor.
Lance is finally home. Whether he becomes our starting PG or he's 6th man, he's getting big minutes and he's here to stay. #llortontnia
Pretty awesome Star Wars shirt, Danny.
I approve!
Sign and trade Evan Turner for Eric Gordon?? RUMOR!
I'm glad Miami got neither Granger nor Caron Butler.

My pumped upper back. I may look skinner, but I'm cut,bitches! ;)
Thanks to the magic of Twitter, it's safe to assume Adrianne Curry spends her days either dressed up as hot comic book characters or just wandering around the house in a bikini. I don't know what her husband Pete Brady did to deserve all this, but I'm pretty sure when he dies Satan will make him wander the Earth haunting old people with hearing problems as part of their agreement.
PETE: Boo!
GRAMPA: What now? No oatmeal for me, thank you.

A COMBINE harvester has been destroyed by fire today as the heatwave continued in North Yorkshire.
North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service said its firefighters had been kept busy all day dealing with a series of incidents, including the combine blaze in a field near Byland Abbey, Helmsley, this morning, which was caused by overheating of the engine.
Lineside grass was also set alight by a spark from a passing steam train on a railway line in Horton in Ribblesdale and there were two small grass fires, reported by someone on the castle walls at Scarborough, which were out on firefighters' arrival.
Crews were also called to a hay baler on fire in a field of stubble at Eppleby, Richmond, which spread to an area of approximately 200 metres by 300 metres of grass and a number of round bales of straw.
There was also a call-out to a ruptured propane gas pipe behind a McDonads restaurant at Ripon. The valve was switched off and a gas engineer called.

subnet allocation, DHCP
Cisco Network Registrar use of on-demand address pools for entire subnet allocation of IP addresses to provisioning devices.
subnet mask
Separate IP address, or part of a host IP address, that determines the host address subnet. For example, 192.168.40.0 255.255.255.0 (or 192.168.40.0/24) indicates that the first 24 bits of the IP address are its subnet, 192.168.40. In this way, addresses do not need to be divided strictly along network class lines.
subnet pool
Set of IP addresses associated with a network number and subnet mask, including secondary subnets.
subnet sorting
Attribute of the Cisco Network Registrar DNS server. By enabling it, the server checks the network address of the client before responding to a query.

virtual channel identifier (VCI) and virtual path identifier (VPI)
16-bit field in the header of an ATM cell. The VCI, together with the VPI, identifies the next destination of a cell as it passes through a series of ATM switches on its way to its destination. ATM switches use the VPI/VCI fields to identify the next network VCL that a cell needs to transit on its way to its final destination. The function of the VCI is similar to that of the DLCI in Frame Relay.
virtual private network (VPN)
Protocol over which IP traffic of private address space can travel securely over a public TCP/IP network. A VPN uses tunneling to encrypt all information at the IP level.

Delegation point in the DNS tree hierarchy that contains all the names from a certain point downward, except for those names that were delegated to other zones. A zone defines the contents of a contiguous section of the domain space, usually bounded by administrative boundaries. Each zone has configuration data composed of entries called resource records. A zone can map exactly to a single domain, but can also include only part of a domain, with the remainder delegated to another subzone.
zone distribution
Configuration that simplifies creating multiple zones that share the same secondary zone attributes. The zone distribution requires adding one or more predefined secondary servers.
zone of authority
Group of DNS domains for which a given name server is an authority.
zone transfer
Action that occurs when a secondary DNS server starts up and updates itself from the primary server. A secondary DNS server queries a primary name server with a specific packet type called AXFR (transfer all) or IXFR (incrementally transfer) and initiates a transfer of a copy of the database.

Bacon is one of my favorite things in the world. In fact, I challenge anyone to name a food - that is not a desset or a dairy product - that is not made better with bacon. I can't think of any - because bacon is the greatest condiment ever.
I'm planning on hosting a large bbq very soon and will be smoking pork shoulders. I was wondering, if I laid a few strips of bacon over a pork butt - would the bacon do anything to enhance it? Whenever I make a meatloaf, I always put a few strips of bacon over the top - and it's amazing.
I'm curious to see if anyone has tried this before and what the results were. I know bacon is usually fried at a high temperature, and it's already smoked - so I wonder if it will overpower the pork butt (and make it extremely greasy). But in my mind, I think this pork shoulder & bacon would be a great combination.
Regardless of what I hear, I'm going to try this on at least one of the butts...but I'm interested in hearing what the wise folks on this board have to say this about this plan.
Also, if anyone has any creative tips on using bacon as a part of grilling/barbecuing/smoking - I'd love to hear them.

NEW power plants are planned that could bring dozens of jobs to the Selby district.
Developers want to set up a 20-megawatt renewable energy plant at Riccall Business Park, formerly Riccall Mine, and a bio-fuelled plant at Whitemoor Business Park, in Cliffe Common. Two separate planning applications have been submitted to Selby District Council.
The Riccall plans are for two buildings, one between about 40 feet and 26 feet high, and another smaller one.
A large chimney of about 16 metres, or 52 feet, would also be built. Should the plans go ahead, developers Infinergy said 24 full-time jobs and 12 part-time shift work posts would be created, including clerical and accountancy work, engineers, machine operators, and operators for the power plant.
The report, by LDP chartered town planners on behalf of the developers, said: "The significant contribution the power plant will make when fully operational will go towards ensuring Selby as a district fulfils its obligations to deliver sufficient provision of renewable energy."
The second application, submitted by REG Bio Power, would see ten unmanned power generation units and two 80,000-litre storage tanks created in Whitemoor Business Park, which the application said are of "an extremely modest scale".
It said the units would all be enclosed in shipping-type containers, creating a "functional and utilitarian appearance, as the larger components are containerised and generally hide the smaller unattractive components".
The application, which follows an earlier, similar submission for the site, dating back to 2011, said: "The best one can say about the appearance of the proposal is that it is as good as it can be and entirely appropriate to its purpose."
A decision on the Riccall plans is expected to be made in April, while the Cliffe application should be decided in March.

NASA's Mars Odyssey orbiter carries a Russian-built instrument called the High Energy Neutron Detector (HEND). In search of subsurface water, the detector hunts beneath the iron-mineral-bearing dust and dirt that cloaks the surface of Mars. This summer, U.S. mission team members traveled across the Atlantic for a meeting of the minds with their HEND colleagues to discuss current findings and to prepare for a new generation of collaborative research.
From the Space Race to Uniting Students Across the Globe
Flying over Moscow, the city doesn't look much different from a typical American town, and once visitors hit the ground, it's not difficult to find fast-food restaurants and the sport of bowling, which have only skyrocketed in Russia over the last decade. With barriers gone, the youth of post-perestroika are a cross-cultural generation, wearing brighter colors and higher heels. If an echo remains of the space race that was launched here with Sputnik in 1957, Odyssey scientists are silencing it with their enthusiastic plans for shared U.S.-Russian student involvement in Mars exploration.
"International cooperation is an important condition of the final success in space," says Igor Mitrofanov, the principal investigator for the HEND instrument and host of the workshop. "And space exploration's biggest profits to society are centuries away, so to accomplish our global efforts, we need to have young people working with us to share our heritage."
One such graduate student is Alexei Malakhov, who guided the Cyrillic-challenged American visitors through the subways of the red city to the HEND workshop. "It's interesting to work with people from the other side of the ocean, just on a level of knowing other people." When asked about his love of space exploration, Malakhov smiles, explaining that the HEND team is very busy designing detectors like HEND for the next generation of Mars missions. Quoting the American film, "Men in Black," Malakhov says, "Stars -- I never look at them anymore, but they actually are quite beautiful."
Passing on knowledge to students is important to Mitrofanov. "Students run fast. We professors know where to run." After meticulously presenting data at the HEND conference that showed locations of subsurface water on Mars, Mitrofanov urged his graduate students to act as interpreters among members of Odyssey's U.S. education team, the Moscow Astronomy Club, and Moscow State Palace of Children's and Youth Creative Work.
Through NASA's Mars Student Imaging Project, led by master teacher Sheri Klug at Arizona State University, students in Russia are partnering with American classes to take their own pictures of Mars using a camera on the Odyssey spacecraft. "The teams must jointly come up with a plan for their experiment, study the image when it comes back to Earth, and write a report explaining what they discovered -- with one voice, but in two languages," says Klug.
Building Long-Lasting Partnerships for Long-Duration Human Flight
This kind of early collaboration among young U.S. and Russian students is important because this is the generation who might share the daunting challenges and unimaginable triumph of walking on Mars for the first time. Passing through the Russian Space Agency's hallways filled with black, white, and red pictures of Americans and Russians joined in fighting the Holocaust during World War II, the educators and grad students speak about effective international collaboration. Sergey Yatsenko, who researched cosmonauts living in simulated martian habitats for 40 years at the Moscow Institute of Medical and Biological Problems before becoming an educator, says the best teams are built on emotional connections made up of people who have "worked together for years and have a love for each other."
This is the fourth HEND conference, and camaraderie among participating scientists is what Gaylon McSmith, Odyssey Science Manager, calls "team building at the highest level." It was McSmith's idea to invite U.S. and Russian educators to participate in this year's workshop. "It's up to the students we're ultimately trying to reach to sustain this friendship and carry it forward," says McSmith.
Traveling on a bus, exploring Russia for the first time, Odyssey Project Scientist Jeff Plaut looks out on spiral-domed churches and gingerbread-style houses along the route. Plaut reflects on what many U.S. team members had discussed on the trip, "The exploration of space and Mars is for humankind, not for any one country, institute, or laboratory. Collaboration between countries is more rewarding than what any one country could do alone."
With the next generation already collaborating, it's not hard to imagine the day when a crew of international explorers will travel across the ocean of interplanetary space and look out the window together as their landing craft lifts the rusty, iron-rich dust off the martian surface. Perhaps even a technological "descendent" or "cousin" of HEND will help them find buried water resources necessary to survival or fuel for an Earth return...or maybe even a habitat for martian life.

Colin Farrell and writer-director Martin McDonagh have reunited to bring the blood-drenched black comedy Seven Psychopaths to the screen, which is released on Wednesday, December 5. The pair talk about making the criminally insane loveable, the success of their first collaboration, In Bruges, and their chances come awards season.
By Susan Griffin
Colin Farrell is taking great joy in winding up his friend Martin McDonagh over the origins of their new movie Seven Psychopaths.
The pair first collaborated on 2008's In Bruges, a dark comedy that earned writer and director McDonagh a Bafta award and an Oscar nomination, and Farrell a Golden Globe.
But, as it transpires, In Bruges was simply McDonagh's trial run at film-making.
"Just before we started In Bruges, you said, 'If you think In Bruges is good you should see the other script I wrote, it's much better'," recalls Farrell, laughing.
"He said, 'I'm only doing In Bruges to see if I like making films. And then I'll make the real one'."
Looking slightly sheepish, McDonagh puts his hands up and jokes: "That was all complete honesty.
"But seriously, Seven Psychopaths was always going to be a bigger script."
An accomplished playwright (he's the recipient of two Laurence Oliver awards and four Tony award nominations), McDonagh wrote the screenplay for Seven Psychopaths at the same time as In Bruges - but there was never any question as to which would be his feature film directorial debut.
"Seven Psychopaths was too big to get my head around cinematically before I dipped my toe in the water," explains McDonagh, a handsome, white-haired 42-year-old who exudes a casual elegance in jeans, T-shirt and jacket.
"As a first-time director, I decided to start with something that was more about things I knew."
A tale of two hitmen, In Bruges was in some ways a character and relationship study set in one place, "and I felt I knew that territory from my work in theatre", says McDonagh.
"Seven Psychopaths was like a puzzle, a gigantic cinematic jigsaw. I don't think I could ever have done this film without having done In Bruges first."
The title of their latest film is also the name of the screenplay which the movie's protagonist Marty, played by Farrell, is struggling to finish.
"Marty's fallen in love with this title but he hasn't come up with all the psychopaths," explains Farrell, 36, who's appeared in the likes of The Minority Report, Miami Vice and, most recently, a remake of Total Recall.
"While Marty's renowned for writing good dialogue and violent scenarios, he's trying to take that violence and somehow render a story that is, in essence, about peace and love."
The idea for the movie kicked in seven years ago when, in real life, McDonagh was inspired to write a story about a psychopath.
"Another couple of stories soon followed and it just kind of snowballed from there," he says of the complex, intertwining tale.
But at its core he wanted to explore "the tug-of-war between wanting to do something spiritual but also something dark and deranged".
In the film, when we meet Marty he's already past his deadline and way past the end of his girlfriend Kaya's (Abbie Cornish) patience. The situation isn't helped by the constant disruption his best friend Billy (Sam Rockwell) poses. That's never more apparent than when Billy and his dog-napping business partner Hans (Christopher Walken) discover a particular pooch they've swiped happens to be the beloved pet of notorious gangster Charlie Costello (Woody Harrelson).
As the three go on the run, with Shih Tzu Bonny in tow, Billy remains determined to help Marty finish his screenplay - at whatever the cost - and the result is a blood-soaked black comedy that's as funny as it is difficult to stomach at times.
"Every now and then, writing jumps off the page. This one does that," says Farrell. "It slaps you in the face, gives you a kick in the arse and takes you on a wonderful ride."
Dressed in jeans and black jacket, he's wearing a long silver chain over a V-neck green T-shirt and a bangle that jingles as he moves.
While his tan might be all LA (he lives there most of the year), Farrell comes across as a down-to-earth Dublin boy who couldn't be more delighted to be working with McDonagh again.
"He has a particular way of stringing words together that has an insane effect on the imagination," says Farrell. "There's an emotional core to everything he writes, the humour, the chaos, the violence, the quick-wittedness of dialogue.
"And the characters are inspired by a truth - love of a pet, need to help a friend, the wish that a lover was closer, ambition."
With seven distinct performances on the agenda, the challenge for McDonagh was to have a firm grip on what exactly defines a psychopath.
"Some of the characters have elements of the psychopathic to them but at the same time they don't. I guess psychopathy is in the eye of the beholder in some ways," muses McDonagh.
"It's a fun puzzle to play with - who is and who isn't a psychopath in the movie."
When Farrell first read the script, he admits he was drawn to the role of Billy, who McDonagh's described as "a mess but in a disturbingly likeable way".
Familiarity had Farrell lean in that direction - "because he's more like Ray, the character I played in In Bruges," he says. "Marty's more the observer, the only one that's sane really!"
No stranger to meshing the juxtaposition of humour and darkness in past projects, McDonagh admits his humour is "leavened with a little bit of darkness".
"But the trick is to never let the darkness weigh the humour down," he notes. "And I try to put a lot of humanity in my scripts. I think this one has a good amount of tenderness and is a big human story at its heart. It's really about friendship."
Given the success of their first collaboration combined with the impending awards season, have they considered the chances of potential plaudits this time?
"It's weird because we did nothing for In Bruges to get that kind of recognition. And I think they're going to throw more [promotion] on this one and we'll end up with absolutely nothing!" says McDonagh, laughing.
"But from my limited experience of [awards shows], it's absolutely fun," Farrell chips in. "It's better than a kick in the arse."
Extra time - Behind the scenes
:: The 41-day shoot ran from November 17, 2011, to January 13, 2012.
:: Look out for the cameo from Gabourey Sidibe who was Oscar nominated for her role in Precious.
:: The Shih Tzu was found in a newspaper advert - and just happened to be called Bonny (the name of the dog in the script).
:: Billy's imagined shoot-out scene was shot at Rosedale Cemetery in LA and was inspired by Ed Wood-type B-movies. ("It was fine if you saw some pieces of wood holding up the sets, in fact it was encouraged," says Production Designer David Wasco.)
:: Pre-pubescent rabbits were used in the scene where the character Zachariah is surrounded by bunnies in the garden - otherwise they would have all started mating!
:: Seven Psychopaths is released in cinemas on Wednesday, December 5

Dahlhaus a hard-working DogJon Pierik
Published: February 3 2013 - 3:00AMThe feisty forward has gone through a summer of torture to improve his game.
AS HE takes a seat in the bubbling cafeteria at the Whitten Oval, recovering from another summer ''smashing'' on the track, it's clear Luke Dahlhaus is a favourite of the Bulldogs' faithful. Eyes around the room peer at him, and there's a request for a photo and autograph.
Dahlhaus, 20, obliges without fuss and has a few words with the young lad, demonstrating in an instant why he continues to take impressive steps as a player and is respected enough to have a junior membership squad named after him.
He also fronts the Bulldogs' membership information brochure, complete with those flowing dreadlocks that have given him something of a cult following.
''That's one of the big things for me, you can never get too ahead of yourself. You remember where you come from and how you got here,'' Dahlhaus said.
''Just because you are getting games in the senior team, it doesn't mean you slow down. You do what you have always done. I keep doing the same amount of work.''
The boy from Leopold is doing just that, on and off the field.
This year the robust rover will complete the second year of a business course, will move into his own house in Williamstown but still share with teammate Christian Howard, all the while seeking to improve his own game and the fortunes of the Bulldogs.
In a difficult 2012 campaign when only five wins were notched, Dahlhaus carried his fair share of the load before his season was ended by an ankle injury at training after the round-18 loss to St Kilda.
He still finished No. 1 at the club for forward pressure - no surprise considering his reputation as a master tackler during his TAC Cup days - and was branded elite by Champion Data as a general forward in disposals, tackles, contested and uncontested possessions.
He lifted his average disposals from 14.1 to 17.5 a game but was given somewhat of a reality check against the top teams. He had 12 disposals against Collingwood in round six, 12 against Sydney in round 10 and 14 against Hawthorn in round 16.
Opponents, it seemed, were putting more thought into stopping him.
''It comes down to me getting fitter and stronger to work that off,'' he said.
''They are obviously the teams that are so good defensively and they lock down on all opposition players.
''I want to play my best in the big games. Hopefully, this year I get a few more kicks off them.''
What coach Brendan McCartney and his coaching crew have been working on is ensuring more of these kicks from every player are more accurate.
The Bulldogs did well to be ranked seventh for contested possession last season, with a positive 3.8 differential per game, but this didn't convert to the scoreboard. This was because of poor ball use and movement.
Champion Data statistics show the Dogs hit a target four per cent less than their opponent through the season, and ranked 17th.
But in the eight games when their percentage was better than their opponent, they won four times. In the 14 matches they had a lower percentage, they won just once.
What was a major concern was they finished last for kicking efficiency in their forward half, finding a target just 54 per cent of the time.
''I think it was our kicking that was down and our finishing,'' Dahlhaus said.
''We are very good at contested ball, we have been continuing to practice that, but we have been working on our outside skills and finishing. Hopefully it can all come together.''
The defensive mindset of the group must improve as well.
This was perhaps best summed up last year - when they won the Bulldogs averaged 19 more tackles than they did in losses. Still, that was to be expected of a team that had anywhere up to 14 players with 40 matches or less experience.
''We have been doing a lot of defensive drills and a lot of tackling drills,'' Dahlhaus said.
Having overcome his ankle injury, he has since enjoyed working with part-time coaches Brad Johnson - he will wear the former captain's No. 6 this season - and Geelong premiership pair Matthew Scarlett and Cam Mooney.
Away from the club, he spends time with Shaun Higgins and Ryan Griffen, learning about life and football off the pair, while Tom Liberatore, having regained the faith of his teammates after last year's drug indiscretion, is another good mate.
''He will have a very good year is my prediction - not to put too much on pressure on him,'' Dahlhaus said with a cheeky grin.
Bulldogs' strategic football operations manager Ben Graham, a master kick during his days with Geelong and as a punter in the NFL, has paid particular attention to Dahlhaus, filming his technique and helping him straighten his run up when having set shots at goal.
He had struggled for accuracy last season, booting 13 goals at 42 per cent.
It was his kicking and ball use that prompted several teams to overlook him in the 2010 national draft, but the Bulldogs took somewhat of a gamble through the rookie draft - and have emerged the winner.
''Where I have been working this pre-season has been on my disposal and my kicking,'' Dahlhaus said.
It's not long now until the season starts, ending a summer of torture and allowing Dahlhaus to resume his weekly Monday lunches with teammate Bob Murphy and Liberatore at a local Asian eatery.
''It's my third year now - it's just finally starting to sink in I am an AFL player now,'' Dahlhaus said.
''You have just got to put your head down and never give up, which I said to myself I never would.''

A PRIMARY school in Darwen has been told it requires improvement after an inspection.
St Edward's RC Primary School in Blackburn Road received the judgement after Ofsted inspectors expressed concerns at the quality of teaching and achievement of pupils.
The report however found that behaviour and safety of pupils, and leadership and management were good.
It comes as a blow to the school, which has 202 pupils enrolled, which was rated good overall at its last inspection three years ago.
In his report, lead inspector James Kidd said: "Since the previous inspection, there has been a downward trend in pupils' achievement.
"For example, in 2013 a below average proportion of pupils made expected progress in mathematics and writing.
"Over a two-year period, the quality of teaching has been inconsistent and has not been good enough to ensure that pupils made good or better progress in their studies.
"The challenge for the most-able pupils has been inconsistent and not always enabled them to reach the standards of which they are capable."
Mr Kidd did report a number of strengths at the school and said: "The headteacher, deputy headteacher and senior team have put in place well founded strategies to improve the quality of teaching.
"As a result, teaching and assessment are now much better and pupils' achievement is improving rapidly.
"Pupils continue to behave well. They are proud of their school and feel safe within its walls.
"The school's work to ensure that its pupils are safe and secure is outstanding. "
Headteacher Gerard Keane did not wish to comment on the report's findings.

- "A Magical Game of Spending, Scheming, and Spellcasting!"
- —Tagline
Harry Potter: Diagon Alley Board Game is a board game based off the Harry Potter series, specifically taking elements from Philosopher's Stone and Chamber of Secrets. It was released in 2001 by Mattel. The game's goal is to be the first player to purchase all of the required school supplies and return to the Leaky Cauldron.
Play starts by choosing a token (represented by coloured wizard hats) and placing tokens representing items into each shop. The number of wands placed into Ollivanders is the same as the number of players, but one less of each other item is placed into the other shops. Every player also gets two of each type of coin (Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts) and two Spell cards to begin the game with. Play starts by each player rolling one of the dice, with the highest rolling getting the first turn.
The main objective of the game is to purchase all of the items in the various shops and returning to the Leaky Cauldron, where the game starts. This is accomplished by moving around the board by rolling both dice. When the entrance of a shop is landed on or passed over, the player may choose to enter it and purchase an item, assuming they have the money to cover the cost listed on the item's token. More money is gained by passing Gringotts Wizard Bank, which gives the player one more of each denomination of coin upon each pass.
Cards provide changes to the gameplay. A card is drawn every time a player rolls a single cauldron symbol (which replaces where the number one traditionally is) or lands on one of the blue swirls on the game board. Cards come in two varieties: Havoc, which must be played immediately, and Spell, which can be held and used at the player's leisure. Cards can cause effects such as forcing other players to lose items or coins, transporting the player directly to Gringotts, and locking shops to prevent access by all players.
Other game mechanics include the presence of Knockturn Alley, which players may be banished to and punished while inside by not being able to draw cards, get money from Gringotts, or enter shops except by exact count, and Floo Powder, which allows players to instantly transport themselves to another shop or the Leaky Cauldron.

"I am so happy with my invitations. The quality of the paper is great...weighty and perfectly textured. The design is so elegant. The only thing I would say is that they are smaller than I expected but I was reading that's that is a good thing as it saves on postage! Service was also prompt and a pleasant experience."
"I love my invitations! This was a simple yet elegant way for me to invite my guests to our wedding. Our picture on the invitation came out beautiful. I love how I was able to print on the front and back of the reception card, making it easy for both myself and my guests. Highly recommended for a simple, chic, and elegant girl!!"
"Absolutely beautiful. It was really easy to customize the wedding invite. My designer did a great job of brining my ideas to life. I really wanted to be able to include our parents in the invite and the designer came up with a great solution and moved a few things around. The invite is exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much!"
"My color theme for my wedding it a variation of purples and this invitation was just perfect for it. The quality is also great! Delivery was amazingly fast! I am very satisfied with my finished product and would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"We LOVED these wedding invites from the second we saw them and got tons of positive feedback! I love the subtle color variations in the leaf designs (we used the green option - we were having an outdoor summer wedding) and think the font colors complimented it nicely. The only change we made was to put the phrase "reception to follow"and the "and" between our names into Willa Bold font rather than the script font. We were sent proofs promptly, and the designer listened to our suggestions. Overall, the printing quality was excellent, the invites arrived in a timely manner and just as advertised, and the paper was fantastic. What helped most was that we ordered sample invitations from WPD (8 for free) and they send you a super helpful paper stock sample guide. I would highly recommend doing this, because it shows you exactly what you're going to get! Overall, we were super happy with the invitations!"

I was going through the garage freezer the other day, trying to make room for the venison I'm about to throw in, when I stumbled across 4 Dry Aged NY Strips I didn't realize I had. Score!! I thought we went through all of them, but I ain't complaining. My Mother In Law also ended up getting me a couple of Adam Perry Lang's books for an early birthday present. Tonight, I used Lang's "Four Seasons Blend " from Charred & Scruffed for the Dry Aged NY Strips.
One of Lang's tips in this book is to sprinkle your seasoning "like rain" for more even distribution. So I sprinkled from a higher location this time, and I think it really did make a great difference.
This beast took about a minute longer than the other steak:
For those of you who have never tried a Dry Aged Steak, I encourage you to do so. The beefiness and rich flavor is out of this world. Can't wait to grill up the other 2.
