Picking up precisely where its hit predecessor left off, Sony Pictures Animation's Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 finds Flint Lockwood (voice of Bill Hader) invited to join the Live Corp Company, and use his gift for invention for the good of mankind. Just as young Flint prepares to go to work for his hero Chester V (voice of Will Forte), however, the young genius learns that his water-to-food machine is not only still functional, but it's also started cross-breeding animals with food. Now, in order to prevent a growing army of 'foodimals' from escaping isolation on an island and wreaking havoc on the mainland, Flint and his loyal group of friends will have to do battle with such delicious, but deadly, hybrids as the ferocious tacodiles, slithering apple pie-thons, and vine-swinging shrimpanzees. Saving the world from these rampaging monstrosities won't be easy, but if anyone is up to the task, it's Flint and company. Contains 1 disc. Cert U.

I plan to breast feed but will be pumping when I return to work at 6 weeks. So I'm trying to add the bottles with liners to my registry. But all I can find are the Playtex Drop-Ins! Don't they make any other options anymore??? When DD was a baby (granted it's been 15 yrs), I used a kind that had flat liners that I could pump breast milk directly into, then seal with these clip thingys and freeze. When it was time to feed baby, just thaw & heat a bag and place directly into the plastic holder. It was SO EASY! Drop-ins won't work for that because they have the firm, circular top so a clip to seal it flat wouldn't work. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Can you help me find the liners I can store breast milk in? TIA

I used the drop ins bottles with regular breastmilk bags. They ziplock shut, there are many brands. Once its thawed, i cut the zipper off and folded the bag over the bottle, then screwed the nipple on. I loved that way. I kept some drop in liners for times i used fresh milk. HTH

Also, the drop ins have caps to freeze them directly. But they are bulky and take space. I think they work directly with the playtex pump. I never tried it but it looked complicated.

Lansinoh breastmilk storage bags were what I used..I would just warmt them up and use in my playtex bottle for DD.
Posted 07/27/2014
I think Medela makes them. I found them and registered for them (and other things) at a local baby shop as I'll be going back to work at 3 months and plan on pumping. Though I'll add the disclaimer that I'm a FTM and am not 100% confident.

How to make your home safer for arthritis patients
Updated On: May 23 2013 08:56:38 AM CDT
For those living with arthritis, safety can be an issue in the home. To keep arthritis patients safe, consider these home alterations.
Bathtubs and showers
Everyday tasks like getting in and out of the bathtub can be hard for those with arthritis. One way to assist arthritis patients is to install a bar on the wall next to the tub. This will assist patients in getting out of the tub.
To prevent slips, putting anti-slip strips on the bottom of the bathtub and the shower floor can also help keep arthritis patients safe while bathing.
Another option to include in a shower is a bench that will allow arthritis patients to sit down while they shower instead of trying to keep their balance while standing.
Converting your shower or bathtub to make it a walk-in is also a helpful alteration.
Trying to get on and off the toilet can be difficult for people with arthritis. Installing a raised toilet seat can make it easier for patients and take some pressure off of their knee joints.
For some people with arthritis, walking around the house can be difficult. To keep them safe in their home it may be necessary to make some changes.
For homes with area rugs, taping down the edges of the rugs will help reduce the chance of patients tripping over the rugs.
Try to avoid using throw rugs, as they can be easily tripped over.
For homes with wood or vinyl floors, try to use non-wax finishes to prevent the floors from becoming too slippery.
Walking up and down the stairs can be difficult for those with arthritis. Make sure there is a handrail on both sides of the steps to help prevent falls.
Also make sure each step is clearly visible to avoid tripping.
To help prevent trips and falls, make sure homes are well lit. Some simple changes are to use brighter light bulbs and to keep your window treatments open to let in more light.

Fans are amazing...Remember yesterday's screenshot Brian submitted to his tumblr?Well, (i think) the same guy that did the fan animation of Bolin and Eska now made a new animation, now about Korra, here is the amazing-ness: SourceIt's so amazing to see the fandom is so devoted to the show, i mean, look a this! Look at all the fanart! It ='s hard that nickelodeon is making us wait so long for the premiere of Book 2, but for now, i think fan art is enough to fill the Korra withdraw some of us are going thru.Keep the hard work fans!

How It Began"God, your two o'clock is here.""I have a two o'clock?""He's been here since 7:45. I figured it's only polite to... sir."God sighed. "Fine, send him in."While He waited God cleared His desk of papers and blueprints; no need for outsiders to see His plans. Soon enough the door to His office opened and God stood, smiled, held out a hand towards one of the two visitor's chairs."God! Great stuff you're doing in sector 2-7-0! Great stuff!"The man's hands were clammy, his handshake limp. Rumpled suit, porkpie hat, briefcase... oh Jes-- oh dear, a salesman. God's smile slipped a little but He soldiered on gamely. With luck He could shoo the poor guy away in a few minutes."So, what can I do for you?"The man sat, briefcase across his knees. "Sector 2-7-0! Everyone's talking about it! What do you call it? Man and merman?""Man and woman, actually. And thanks. But we're pretty busy around here, and...""Oh! Right! No time for the wicked, eh?" The salesman winked and popped his briefcase,

Play Optics
The branding concept for Play Optics is based on Josef Albers' simultaneous contrast studies making one color appear to be two. This was a two week- long project from conceptualization to completion under the direction of Dan Blackman. Collateral materials include eye chart, business cards, stationary, postcard, lookbook, and signage. The nose bridge of the glasses became a unifying element in both the logo and as a pattern on the eyeglass case, lens cloth, and website.

Boutique branding
Violeta is a traditional Argentinian bakery located in the well-off neighborhood of Las Lomas de San Isidro in the outskirts of Buenos Aires. Named after its founder, Violeta creates beautiful, hand-crafted bread, cakes and pastries. With more than 30 years in the hearts of the people of Buenos Aires, Violeta now plans to start up franchises in Miami, Florida.
We designed Violeta's new identity with the mission to communicate quality and sophistication without losing approachability.
Our proposal draws inspiration from Buenos Aires' coat of arms: an oval with two ships sailing over Rio de la Plata and a dove flying above them. We multiplied the dove by three in celebration of Violeta's three decades of fantastic bread. We kept the lines depicting the Rio de la Plata and used them not only in the icon, but all over the brand in four different patterned textures. We chose violet to match the naming and to keep the brand fresh and feminine. The copper foil is not only a nod towards Violeta's excellence, but it also refers to the toasty color of bread right after it leaves the oven.

MOFO Festival
The Museum of Old and New Art: Festival Of Music and Art, often further shortened to simply MOFO, is an annual festival based in Hobart, Tasmania curated by Brian Ritchie, bass player from the rock band Violent Femmes. It is billed as Tasmania's largest contemporary music festival and showcases the work of artists in a broad range of art forms, including sound, noise, dance, theatre, visual art, performance and new media.
As one of my university briefs, for the 2015 design I decided to reimagine the festival and create a clean, simple brand that is easily expandable across multiple formats and/or event collateral. The concept behind the brand mark was that each of the vertical or diagonal strokes represents element of the festival, whether that be dance, theatre or visual art, etc. Only when brought together as a group, it forms the letter 'M'; only when brought together, it becomes the MOFO festival.

Thorn in bid spotlight after chairman refuses CBI role
Friday 20 October 1995
The decision by Thorn EMI chairman Sir Colin Southgate not to take up the presidency of the Confederation of British Industry has again put the music to consumer rental group in the bid spotlight. Sir Colin cited for his decision pressure of work in preparing for the planned break-up of the business.
On the face of it, demerging the various parts of Thorn EMI should not present the chairman with too onerous a task. There is precious little business connection binding together recording and publishing stars like Frank Sinatra and the pop group Smashing Pumpkins, with rented furniture and televisions.
Where the headaches do lie is in unscrambling the legal details of 22 holding companies operating in 40 countries and a potentially hefty tax bill, which is likely to have come down from last year's estimates of pounds 150m but could still be substantial.
The prize for shareholders is likely to be worth both the extra tax and the hard work to be put in by Sir Colin and his fellow directors if they do decide to go with a demerger "early next year". Since the beginning of the year, the share price has outperformed the rest of the stock market by 28 per cent as break-up bid speculation has gathered pace. At pounds 15.54, up 5p yesterday, the shares stand just below their all-time high. Yet many analysts believe that is just the starting point for the sort of value that could be unlocked by the separation of the parts of the group.
The jewel in Thorn EMI's crown is undoubtedly the EMI music business, now probably the third-largest in the world behind Time Warner of the US and PolyGram, controlled by the Dutch electronics giant Philips. The deal which catapaulted the group into the top ranks of the music industry was the pounds 510m acquisition of Virgin Music in 1992, bringing together blockbuster groups like the Rolling Stones, Genesis and UB40 with the likes of Tina Turner and the Pet Shop Boys.
Virgin rapidly proved its worth, chipping in record profits of pounds 90m in 1993-94, the last year it was reported separately. But EMI also possesses a massive cash cow in the shape of its ownership of copyrights to well over 800,000 music titles.
Any break-up of the group could set off a massive auction for the EMI business, given its position as the only one of the big five groups not owned or controlled by a big group. But the Thorn rental business, which has tended to be overshadowed by the music side, could also prove attractive to bidders. Its rather dowdy image is being transformed by a move towards "rent to buy", opening up a relatively painless way for the less well- off to own sought-after consumer durables.
Based on traditional multiples of sale, cash flow and earnings, Paul Slattery at brokers Kleinwort Benson puts a value on pounds 5bn on EMI alone, with another pounds 2bn or so for Thorn and perhaps pounds 350m for the HMV and Dillons record and bookshop chains. Together, that adds up to pounds 17 a share for the group as currently constituted, but in a bidding war "it would not be stupid if we saw an end price of pounds 23", he says.
The only fly in the ointment is whether EMI's recording artists would be keen to sign up to likely bidders, which include Viacom, the third- largest music retailer in the US, Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks SKG, Walt Disney and News International. Many recording stars have contracts that allow them to walk away on a change of ownership, which could substantially reduce the value of EMI unless some notoriously fragile egos are handled carefully.
But Sir Colin and Jim Fifield, head of EMI, have a personal interest in ensuring that any such moves do not get in the way of securing the best possible price in any auction for the group. At pounds 20 a share, Sir Colin would net close to pounds 6.5m from his share options, while Mr Fifield could pocket pounds 3.8m on top of total emoluments last year of pounds 7.53m.
In certain circumstances he could also pick up a further 800,000 shares in six years time, worth pounds 16m at pounds 20 a share.

Using this logic Utah has to be a very racist state as well as they came in 2nd.

You'd be surprised if you ever went to visit. I've got plenty of family there and most of them are nothing like that. The blacks and white seem to get along better than in a lot of places I've visited.

I just state things as I know them to be. If you cannot take the fact a lot of racist people also happen to claim to be very religions, not sure what to tell you, but that does not make it any less the truth.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 02:14
You educate yourself. Utah is not 100% Mormon. You state things the way YOU think them to be. You are not all knowing!
Posted 15 February 2013 - 02:15
Straw man, he never said 100% of the state was Mormon But it is the single largest Mormon Enclave with over 60% being Mormon and with clustering counted their are whole parts of the state where 90% of the town is Mormon.

And I never said they were NOT racist. Do not call me names.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 02:22
Then take a look at the post directly above yours. You called me straw man. I guess that term is used more so in England.
In my ten years on Neowin, I have never seen a response that was only two sentences and stringed to straw mans into itself as well. I neither told you that you said they where not racist, nor called you a name.

SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- People to People Ambassador Programs, the leader in global educational travel experiences, is offering one creative student a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to participate on a 14-day international student travel adventure to England and France via a contest with Scholastic.

|Two of five lawmen return from the Coliseum Road intersection with St. Landry Extended after spending about an hour retracing their steps from an earlier search of the area looking for clues in the disappearance of Mickey Shunick who has been missing since May 19. Dominick Cross
Five officers were on foot around 2:30 p.m. walking toward Coliseum Road via St. Landry and St. Landry Extended while another remained in his unit, lights flashing, to alert approaching drivers of the search in progress.
A Louisiana State Police vehicle was on the scene briefly before leaving the area.
"We were basically canvassing the roadway and near the roadway for any articles or items that may be in the area because that near the last footage that we had of Mickey," says Cpl. Paul Mouton, Public Information Officer at the LPD. "And so as a result of that - we did it already - but they wanted to go back out there again just to make sure.
"And that was what they were out there doing," he says. "It was basically a canvas."
Mouton says no new information prompted the renewed search, that it was just a matter of policy.
"After the searches at Whiskey Bay, we sat back and re-evaluated the case, as we do in all cases and we try to look at different things that maybe we need to do again, or check, or just for peace of mind, one more check of this or that," he says.
Shunick's damaged Schwinn bicycle was found submerged Sunday in the Atcafalya Basin by fisherman near the Wiskey Bay exit on Interstate 10. The rear rim was damaged and the tire dislodged; its gold handgrips were found near the bike.
Mouton believes the bike was dumped at the site and not thrown from the bridge. Forensic experts at the Louisiana State Police Crime Lab are examining the bike.
Shunick, 22, went missing May 19 when she was riding her bike from a friend's house in the Saint Streets to her home in the Ambassador/Congress area.
SEP 16 Here's something for LSU to be proud of. It's a video of some (presumed) 'frat boys' manhandling another young man who is not wearing a polo shirt and khakis on the parade grounds prior to Saturday's LSU football game. The best part of this brief video is the look on the face of the guy who shot it, who also is (presumably) responsible for the title of the tape.

SEP 16 Columnist Jim Beam writes about cuts to the military in this post. It's a theme that has been repeated over our history, and it has never been a good idea, he argues. Beam remembers processing out of the Army in 1957 and sitting next to a captain who had been cut during one such drawdown.

SEP 15 Here's the NOLA Defender blog's coverage of the Gulf Energy Forum, hosted last week in the city by The Atlantic magazine.

Since the forum was held in Louisiana and underwritten by the American Petroleum Institute - how is that a surprise?

Las Vegas, NV (Sports Network) - Behind 16 points, 15 rebounds and five blocks from Sim Bhullar, New Mexico State earned its second straight Western Athletic Conference Tournament championship with a 64-55 decision over Texas-Arlington on Saturday.
Daniel Mullings added 16 points and Bandja Sy finished with 10 for the third- seeded Aggies (24-10), who earned an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament while also capturing their fourth conference championship.
"Couldn't be happier for my guys, these kids really stuck together," said New Mexico State coach Marvin Menzies. "We have a lot of character."
Kevin Butler tallied 13 points and 10 rebounds for the fourth-seeded Mavericks (19-13), who will leave the WAC after just one season to join the Sun Belt Conference for the start of the 2013-14 campaign.
"New Mexico State's a great basketball team, they hit shots early on against us," said Texas-Arlington coach Scott Cross. "We had a little bit of lull there in the second half before we got our energy back."
A closely contested first half ended with New Mexico State holding a 32-30 advantage, which ballooned to 12 points just over six minutes through the second period following a 9-0 run.
After falling behind by 13 soon after, Texas-Arlington countered with nine unanswered points to come within four at the eight minute mark and found itself within three at 56-53 with two minutes showing, but never came any closer.
The Aggies closed out the contest with free throws over the final minute.

Good stuff,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition ZMA Nighttime Recovery Support capsules - Tub of 90 (Grocery)
I train hard 6 times a week, plus working 8 hours 5 times a week. My body is simply not capable to maintain same level of performance, so I need some supplements for recovery. I've done some research and found out about ZMA. That's very basic formula for recovery. We all know that body recovers during rest time - sleep.
ZMA helps me to get deep sleep and also I have felt of more realistic dreams, please note that you wont feel like superman after few pills or all bottle or whatsoever you consume, it helps you just a little bit. Some people think, that they will feel results straight away, if you think same, then better stay away from this product.
I would recommend ZMA for people that do workout really hard and also know about they'r nutrition.

Militants kill 8 security personnel in NW Pakistan
A group of militants attacked a security checkpoint in a troubled northwestern tribal region before dawn on Friday, and eight security forces and four militants were killed, a government official said.
Associated Press
A group of militants attacked a security checkpoint in a troubled northwestern tribal region before dawn on Friday, and eight security forces and four militants were killed, a government official said.
A government administrator, Iqbal Khan, said the attack happened in Jamrud, a main town in the Khyber tribal region bordering Afghanistan.
Khan said authorities had launched a major operation in Jamrud in an effort to find and arrest the attackers.
Also Friday, a roadside bomb struck a vehicle carrying police in the northwestern city of Peshawar, killing an officer and wounding two others, police officer Ghaffar Khan said. He said the dead and wounded men had been transported to a hospital.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks, which came at a time when the Pakistan army is carrying out a major offensive against local and foreign militants in the country's North Waziristan tribal region.
The military says it has killed nearly 500 militants since launching the June 15 operation, while it has lost 26 soldiers.
Jamrud is 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of Peshawar, the capital of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.

Report: Toronto Raptors waive Quentin Richardson
Aug 30, 2013, 6:38 PM EDT
New York igned and traded Quentin Richardson with a three-year deal as part of the Andrea Bargnani deal, however Toronto wasn't interested in him as a player. He and his salary were needed to make the trade work out, that was it.
The Raptors have a glut of players on the wing and planned to trade him or waive him… the answer is the latter.
Toronto waived Quentin Richardson on Friday, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports.
Richardson, 33, was owed the veteran league minimum of $1.4 million this season but the second and third years of deal were not guaranteed, according to Sham Sports. That means Richardson still counts against the Raptors cap this year but not in future years.
Last season a young Magic team didn't play Richardson and eventually swallowed his $5 million salary to waive him. The Knicks signed him for the playoffs but he played a total of 14 minutes in five games in the postseason for New York.
At his age and with his game declining, it's going to be hard for him to catch back on with a team.

The Sapphire Rose: Elenium Bk. 3 (Paperback)
|Paperback 544 pages
In stock
Usually despatched within 24 hours
Book Three of the ELENIUM is fantasy on a truly epic scale, in which the Pandion Knight Sparhawk must finally use the power of the jewel. Aided by the goddess Aphrael, Sparhawk and his band of companions have recovered the magical jewel Bhelliom -- the Sapphire Rose -- from the cave of the troll-dwarf Ghwerig. Now they have the power to wake and cure Ehlana, the young Queen of Elenia. But while they were seeking Bhelliom, great forces of evil moved into the power vacuum left behind. The unholy triple alliance between Otha, degenerate sorcerer-king of the Zemochs, the renegade Pandion Knight Martel, and Annias, traitorous Primate of Cimmura, threatens to overrun all of Eosia. In returning to Cimmura to wake Ehlana, Sparhawk risks delivering the Sapphire Rose into the hands of his enemies, who will use it to give the evil god Azash dominion over the whole world. To stop them they may have to unleash the full power of the jewel, but no one can predict whether the world itself will survive such an event. THE SAPPHIRE ROSE is the gripping, brilliant conclusion to THE ELENIUM, a panoramic tale of a conflict between good and evil that envelops an entire continent.

The Fortune 500 are farther along in their adoption of public-facing corporate blogs than previous data has suggested says a new research study, "The Fortune 500 and Blogging: Slow and Steady" conducted by Dr. Nora Ganim Barnes, Ph.D., and Eric Mattson, CEO of Financial Insite Inc. The new report is the outcome of a study of public-facing blogs among the Fortune 500. The study examined the 2008 Fortune 500 list in an attempt to quantify the adoption of social media by identifying those with public-facing blogs. The report shows that while the Fortune 500 companies are adopting social media at a slower rate than other leading businesses, universities and charities, many more of them are blogging than has been previously reported. Key findings include: 81 of the Fortune 500 currently have public-facing blogs, 28 percent of the Fortune 500's blogs link to Twitter accounts, five of the top ten companies have public blogs: Wal-Mart, Chevron, General Motors, Ford, and Bank of America, 90 percent of the Fortune 500's blogs have the comments feature enabled, and 10 percent of the Fortune 500's blogs link to podcasts; 21 percent incorporate video.

It's been twelve long years since Bonobo's debut Animal Magic pulled heartstrings across the globe and since then Simon Green has developed his emotive brand of electronica in to one of the world's most captivating live electronic bands. Now, for the very first time, he's bringing the whole six piece experience including vocalist Andreya Triana to Australia for select shows in March 2012.
Recognising Green's immense talent, the impeccable Ninja Tune label snapped up Bonobo for the world, following up his debut with Dial M For Monkey, which enjoyed similar success and introduced many musical tourists to the producer, as tracks from it were picked by countless chill-out compilations. Three years later Days To Come was voted 'Album of the Year' by listeners of Gilles Peterson's Worldwide program on BBC Radio 1, it was also one of the biggest selling titles on the label in Australia for 2006.
In 2009, those unlucky enough not to have caught the Bonobo live experience were treated to the Live At Koko DVD, which was followed up by one of last year's highlight albums Black Sands. Choosing chanteuse Andreya Triana as his weapon of choice, Bonobo took a slightly darker edge on the album, joining the likes of producers like Floating Points who make beautiful soulful electronic music that engage a listen as much as they do entice a dancefloor.
Finally Australian fans, who have been waiting over a decade for this live soul and folk-tronic experience, can enjoy the Bonobo live experience as Simon Green and band come to Australia to play two headline shows and two festival appearances. Regularly selling out large venues across the UK, it's now our turn to find out why. Do not miss this incredible tour.

Mariners must land Price
The Robinson Cano contract is a move that demands an equal follow-up
The 2013 season wasn't an exciting one for the Seattle Mariners, with the team finishing with 91 losses, their fifth losing season in six tries. Only the addition of the Houston Astros to the AL West enabled the M's to break their string of last-place finishes. With patience for the team's current rebuilding process waning -- and more than a decade since the team's last divisional title -- the Mariners have approached this offseason with one goal: get better quickly. The team has an impressive stable of minor-league arms, but tomorrow is stubbornly refusing to turn into today.
After getting involved in the bidding for most of the top free agents, Seattle finally got their man, former Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano. Cano comes with a hefty price tag, nearly a quarter of a billion dollars over the next decade.
But how good is the rest of the team that Cano is joining? Are they a serious contender in the AL West after the addition? Robinson Cano is one of the best players of this generation and a future Hall of Famer, but teams that have simply paid for a top star and hoped that it would be enough to turn the franchise around have generally been disappointed with the results. There are 24 other players on the roster, and while Cano won't be the only star on any team that has Felix Hernandez, it's still a team that has many holes to fill.
To see where the Mariners stand right now after the Cano signing, I ran the ZiPS projections for the 2014 team and tallied the WAR (wins above replacement) of every player on the roster. Replacement level is set at roughly 48 wins over the course of a 162-game season. So in a division with the Rangers and A's, you want to see them around 90 wins, enough to be a threat to win the division and not to just grab one of the considerably less valuable wild card spots. That means they need to come up with roughly 42 WAR.

Accurate plant tissue analysis starts at the crop sample
Despite the Midwest's wet spring and summer this year, most crops are now in the ground and plants have matured enough to produce foliage. Soil analysis laboratories are receiving whole plants, leaves, and clippings for plant tissue analysis – an examination and resulting recommendation of foliar and soil application to improve crop quality. However, without correct sample collection, plant tissue analysis accuracy can be greatly reduced.
"Plant nutrient makeup varies throughout the growing season. The recommendation systems that our laboratory utilizes to evaluate each sample have been developed based on specific plant parts at specific stages of growth. It's important that the crops are sampled the same way that the research was developed so that the user can gain the most from the test," explains Dustin Sawyer, laboratory manager for Rock River Laboratory.
Following crop type and stage of growth guidelines, growers and consultants can easily select the correct plant portion, and collect the necessary number of plants, for the laboratory to provide reliable data to recommend the most accurate corrective measures. For easy instruction, growers and consultants can find guideline tables at: uwlab.soils.wisc.edu/pubs/pa_sampling.pdf
In the case of an assumed nutrient deficiency, sample collection should include the same portion of the plants, in the same growth stage, from both the affected area and the normal area. "This analysis of suspected plants versus the control allows for a comparison of nutritional statuses for the best assessment," explains Sawyer. He also notes time is of the essence for samples of suspected nutrient deficiencies. "The sooner we can receive the plant tissue samples for an assumed nutrient deficiency, the better the opportunity that we can identify the deficiency and start the corrective action to minimize losses," says Sawyer.
Beyond sample collection, handling, preparation and shipping of plant tissues have also proved to be areas of vulnerability to obtaining accurate analysis. After sampling, those handling the samples should follow preparation guidelines[1]:
- Remove sample roots or foreign material
- Dust off plant tissue – removing any remaining soil
- Do not wash the sample
- Air-dry the sample for 1-2 days utilizing a heating vent or the sun (only necessary if sample will reach the laboratory more than one day after sampling)
- Loosely pack the sample in a paper envelop or paper bag when shipping (avoid tight packing)
- Avoid utilizing plastic or polyethylene bags for sample shipment
While analysis of plant tissues can identify and help correct current crop deficiencies and challenges, the reactive recommendations can be improved with the proactive means of combining plant tissue and soil analysis. "Complex environmental interactions can lead to nutrient deficiencies in the plant, even when the soil may have an adequate supply for supporting the crops grown," says Sawyer. "Sampling from plant tissue and soil at the same time gives us a comprehensive look at the nutrients and relationship between plant and soil, which allows us to make a more accurate and sustainable recommendation for applications."

Higher fuel taxes in Vermont are almost a forgone conclusion.
The state Senate on Friday approved a hike in an overwhelming decision. It increases the diesel tax 4 cents per gallon over two years. The gasoline tax would move 7.5 cents higher during the same time.
Supporters say the money is "a necessary evil" because it's needed to keep the state from losing out on more than $55 million in federal road building and repair dollars.
Critics argue the tax is regressive. Some trucking interests in the state say they can only afford about half of the amount in the Senate measure.
Earlier the Vermont House passed a tax increase on gasoline and no hike on diesel, but the taxes would rise or fall with inflation.
It is now up to lawmakers to reconcile differences in the two pieces of legislation before they can proceed to a final vote.

It's been almost 4 months since my world was turned upside down, since my daughter was shot (she survived), since we've had our own place to live, since…life was "normal". I'm not going to lie. It's rough sometimes. I have moments during the day where I struggle…really hard. I don't like my thoughts and my thoughts really don't like me. The "d" word hovers over my head for at least 83% of the day. I fight to keep an open heart, to keep communicating with my husband, to keep laughing with the children. I keep trying to pray and keep busy being creative and sometimes it helps.
Tuesday we started family counseling.
It felt like a band aid was ripped off of a wound. A wound that I thought was scabbed over and healing, but no. It's still bleeding. I've been mad at myself because it still hurts to think about that night when bullets ripped through our home like a war zone injuring my oldest daughter. I should be over this by now, shouldn't I? It feels like the whole world has gone crazy. Maybe it was already crazy and I finally woke up to it. I say that somewhat tongue in cheek. Of course the world is crazy…it's just that it's craziness wasn't supposed to touch me and my family.
But it did.
I keep thinking about how I'm going to get through this period in my life. I believe things will get better, don't get me wrong. It's just that there are moments when it's hard. I accept that. I accept the wave of emotions that come, I ride it and let it wash up on shore until the next wave rides in. My out of body beach experience.
I keep debating on how much to share. How deep do I go? Will it be too much? Will I be setting myself up for someone to take advantage of me? Then I remember the gift that God has given me.
The gift of creativity. It's my prozac. It literally lifts my spirits and helps me to keep going. It takes my mind off of dark thoughts and just let's me breathe. Almost as if I had run 50 miles and collapse out of exhaustion, and happiness and accomplishment. That's how I feel when I'm able to be creative. My mind can run free, and feel the wind it's hair…well…you know what I mean. If my mind had hair it would be blown by the imagination wind.
And it would be epic.
It is epic.
I am reminded of the conversation I had with my brother the other night. He is a VP at an engineering company. He is also a gifted musician, rapper, and producer who teaches awesome bible studies at our church. He's also a father of 4 kids. He's kind of awesome. So much so I call him my little big brother because I look up to him (literally and spiritually). We talked about the gift of hobbies, and creativity and art and how they literally can help us make it through life's challenges. Expressing ourselves while in the midst of our journey can help with healing as well as encourage others. While hiding those parts of ourselves can feed the negative thoughts that we tell ourselves throughout the struggle or trial we are facing. I'm not going to lie, it's hard to stay positive. But there are a few things I'm implementing to help me keep my head above water.
I am working on putting my health first:
- This is hard to admit but sometimes I won't eat if I'm too busy. Sometimes I forget and sometimes I do it on purpose so I can keep working. I've done that with having to pee or get a drink of water. Now I try and stop, pee/eat/drink, and then continue on with what I was doing. I'm still not perfect at this but I'm getting better.
I make time to write in my journal/visit with friends/think/pray:
- This has always been important to me but I don't think I really made it a priority even though I know that this is essential to my well being, creativity and overall happiness.
I'm giving myself some grace:
- This is by far the hardest thing for me to do. I'm working on not judging or criticizing myself for sleeping in, or not doing laundry, or not praying the most "holy" prayer. Essentially for being "human". Right now things are messy and even get lost but I'm trying to let those things go and realize that my worth is not in how well I accomplish things but my worth is simply in who Christ made me to be.
Do you have any tactics that you use when you are feeling down?

For October's meeting we'll be reading Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. A giant MMORPG allows people to escape the mess than is the year 2044. Deep inside this utopia are puzzles—including rewards to be sought by all. These puzzles are based on the fascinations of their author, a multimillionaire donating his fortune to the winner after his death, mostly based in 1980s geek culture. It's been described as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (or Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory), plus touches of the Matrix and Avatar.
Join us for discussion of our current book as well as helping decide our next selection.
This is what you missed at our last bookclub meeting:
We read Robopocalypse by Daniel H Wilson. Wilson holds a doctorate in robotics and uses that to his advantage while describing a war between humans and robots. It was overall an enjoyable action screenplay-esque novel, though many of us had issues with some of the robots' actions.
When: Monday, October 10, 2011 – 6:30pm-8:00pm
Where: Second floor of the Noble Tree Cafe 2444 N. Clark Street Chicago, IL
Cost: Free

All, this article from the AV Club contains a link to the Feynman biography that I mentioned.
Additionally, this ties in excellently to what I understand the next book is about: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2011/09/the-quest-for-the-golden-nintendo-game.ars
