Let orange line be your guide
By DON McCABE
Regular stops at his pivots and subsurface drip system remain a routine for Don Blaschko of Gibbon, but his 2010 irrigation decisions were made watching a graph and the orange line on his laptop computer screen.
As part of Fontanelle Hybrid's Aqua View program, Blaschko has joined the expanding world of irrigation scheduling programs that use soil sensors to send moisture data to a home computer or smart phone. More and more, irrigation companies, seed firms and other ag businesses are aligning in partnerships to develop wireless irrigation management networks like this one.
At a glance
• Aqua View project seeks to provide irrigators with more efficient water use.
• It involves using soil moisture probes to schedule irrigation.
• Data from the field is sent via satellite to the home computer.
In 2010, Blaschko installed three John Deere water capacitance probes — one each in a full pivot circle, a half circle and a 55-acre subsurface drip field — that relayed soil moisture status to his home computer.
Savings of $500 to $700
"I made only four total irrigations on each field, applying 3.60 inches per acre total from the pivots and 2.30 inches on the SDI field," he says. "I probably would have gone another four pivot rotations based on how I irrigated before. For every rotation eliminated, I saved $500 to $700 in pumping costs."
Additionally, Blaschko says yields this summer were as good — or better — on the three Aqua View-managed fields as they were on other irrigated fields.
Trusting computer scheduling programs based on soil moisture sensors takes some getting used to, but Blaschko says he now has confidence in these evolving tools.
A neighbor, Dan Muhlbach, had a soil moisture probe in four pivot circles in his first-ever year of using any irrigation scheduling program and ended the season with just three total rotations. "We had plenty of subsoil moisture and good early-season rains, so we did not irrigate until early August," he says. "You watch neighbors who make one or two circles before you do, and it's hard, but we have to change our thinking and not rely so much on tradition."
Fontanelle developed Aqua View in 2009 and this summer had 465 probes installed, half in Nebraska and the remainder in Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming and Texas, says Nick Lammers, lead for the seed company's irrigation program.
"Our average participant saved two to three pivot rotations this year," adds Lammers, who coordinates Aqua View for Fontanelle.
How it works
John Deere got into the irrigation and moisture monitoring business two years ago and markets the 3-foot-long probe and radio transmitter used in the Aqua View program.
The probe, which is installed in what Lammers calls a field's representative soil type, measures soil moisture at five depths — 4, 8, 12, 20 and 36 inches. A solar-powered satellite radio unit links that information to a satellite that transmits it to a website farmers like Blaschko and Muhlbach can access at any time, from home or on the road. Soil readings are taken every 30 minutes, and the numbers are sent to the website every two hours.
When users access the data for their fields, two graphs show up. One is a blue line representing 95% of field soil moisture capacity. The other is the orange line, or "when to irrigate line," that shows when soil moisture declines to 70% to 75% of the blue line. That's the trigger line to begin applying water.
Fontanelle contracts with and trains crop consultants and agronomists, who it calls "certified water consultants," to install the probes for users and then make weekly visits to them.
Both Blaschko and Muhlbach visited with their crop consultants before making irrigation decisions.
Aqua View users who order 50 bags or more of Fontanelle seed obtain use of a probe free of charge for one year.
Lammers says farmers who obtain wireless delivery of soil moisture data, rather than having to go to the field to check moisture sensors, have quicker access to that information, allowing for more timely decisions.
Decide to irrigate at your kitchen table
The drip- and pivot-irrigated fields could both be seen outside Don Blaschko's kitchen window last summer.
Five people sat at the table, determining when next to irrigate that corn — not by heading outside, but instead by zeroing in on their laptop screens. Each screen held a graph with horizontal lines. One at the top showed nearly full soil moisture capacity, and an orange "trigger" line showed the point at which to begin irrigating. The green line showed the actual field soil moisture level. When this green line dropped to the trigger line, it was time to irrigate. Since the green line hadn't reached the trigger, they all decided to hold off on irrigating.
Welcome to the new frontier in irrigation management: wireless soil moisture data sent from field to computer or smart phone.
Compare this, if you would, to the "good-ole, long days" of shovels, lathe boxes, siphon tubes and gated pipe. And to the days of irrigating continuously, or when the neighbors did so, or by the less refined hand-feel soil method.
Advances continue at a fast pace in remote irrigation monitoring and control, and more Nebraska farmers are coming aboard.
READING THE SOIL: Don Blaschko (left) and Dan Muhlbach relied on a soil moisture probe to schedule irrigations in 2010. Between them is a solar panel and radio transmitter that sends soil moisture data via satellite to a home computer or smart phone.
NOT TIME YET: The blue line represents a full soil profile, while the orange line is the "trigger" line. Actual soil moisture levels are indicated by the green line.

just been waiting FOREVER for a good deal, this came up and I didn't hesitate. It's got a little work light and a laser, makes cutting straight lines fool-proof. However, I was a bit taken aback by the weight of this thing, that's the only complaint, otherwise would be 5 stars.

This was a Christmas gift and I just finished using this saw for a large project. Saw worked very well except the laser trac light broke midway through the project. I will be returning it for a new one. Saw worked very well otherwise.

I have had a problem with the laser ever since I bought this circular saw, but I thought that I might be doing something wrong. Now I see that someone else has the same problem, so I think that the problem is with the saw, not with me. The problem is simply that the laser beam cannot be adjusted so that it tracks with the blade cut. The closest I can get is when I use the "0" setting. When I do that, the laser beam is at least 1/4" from the cut. Some people say that the notches are good enough, but I feel that the laser was put there for a reason. and I want to make use of it.

Bought this as a gift for a family member who likes to work with wood. He likes the tool and the laser track. It helps make the cuts straighter and smoother. Dependable and works well.

My 30 year old Craftsman circular saw finally bit the dust so had to shop for a new one. This saw is light weight yet sturdy. I have not found the laser useful yet, but the led work light is great and the cutting guides on the footplate are true and clear. Depth gauge is easy to operate and read.
Albany, NY
via sears.com
I first bought a Craftsman circular saw when I bought my first house over 30 years ago. It served me well but age finally got to it. Sad to see it go but the new one has features that has made it much easier to get the jobs done. It has plenty of power, comfortable to handle and the laser light makes it much easier to cut a straight line.
via sears.com
Sufficient power as well as handy features including a laser line for straight cutting and a built in light to eliminate shadows make this saw worth every penny.

More imagination?
If you want quaint, you've got it in Kansas where there are fourteen State Champions crowned in seven different divisions. Don't get me started on the number of divisions in a state with less than three million people let me, instead, concentrate on the way we crown our champions in a state where the sport is king. Starting today, competition begins in seven venues across Kansas; it culminates with championships games on Saturday afternoon. I'm not sure why we have to spread the action all over the state, maybe because that's just the way it's always been. But having covered state for nearly thirty years, I would suggest it's time for a change.
Finals only---
No, I don't want to deprive Emporia, Manhattan, Hutchinson, Hays, Salina and Topeka of the tradition they have with these tournaments. The people that run those tourneys generally do a great job and I'm sure having those events are important to the local economies—I get it. I'm not about taking the tournaments from these communities—all I want is one game. Ok, the one game—the final in each class. What am I going to do with them?
Bring it to Intrust---
Imagine what next week would be like if you brought 14 finals to one 15,000 seat venue in downtown Wichita. Practically non-stop championship basketball spread out over three days; it would be the biggest sporting event of the year in Kansas high school sports. The energy it would create downtown would be unprecedented, as we came together to celebrate our love of the game that largely defines Kansas.
Can you imagine the draw it would be for local fans, or fans around the state who've always had to choose one venue to go and support? With the event in one location it's hard to imagine that a regional network wouldn't be interested. I know there are financial concerns --you're asking families from outside the Wichita area to travel on consecutive weekends, you're extending the season by one week, I know all the reasons you couldn't do this—but how about a reason why you should. To do something great, to make an event memorable, one that's so anticipated that people around Kansas clear their calendar every March. This would be an event that not only enhances the experience of the fan, but of the young athlete competing for a state title. I don't mean this as a dig to any of the current championship communities, but honestly—think of any experience you've had at a state championship venue and compare it to what it would look like in front of 15,000 at Intrust Bank Arena.
Cat scratch fever---
It won't be a game that Bruce Weber points to proudly, but his Wildcat's did manage to subdue TCU on senior night, setting up a big trip to Oklahoma State on Saturday. K-State is looking for a piece of its first title since 1977, when Mike Evans was their star and Jack Hartman their coach. Crazy as it sounds, Kansas State is looking to become the first school in the Big 12 to own a football and men's basketball championship in the same school year. Of course, KU is looking to become the first program since UCLA during its dynasty to win nine straight conference titles. The 'Hawks travel to Baylor while the 'Cats toil in Stillwater, it will be a very interesting Saturday.

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Between 1924 and the fall of communism in 1991, hundreds of millions of visitors paid their respects to the embalmed body of Lenin and, later, that of Stalin. Professor Ilya Zbarsky - son of Boris Zbarsky who, with professor Vladimir Vorobiov, mummified Lenin two months after his death - reveals the extraordinary adventure of his family and of those who worked in the mausoleum laboratory, the sole purpose of which was to maintain the body of the Soviet founder in perpetuity. This they achieved by plunging him into a secret solution based on glycerine and potassium acetate. Their story, unthinkable save in a totalitarian regime, is also that of the burgeoning Soviet Union and of the privileged few who, disregarding Stalin and his growing anti-Semitic paranoia, believed that working in the shadows of the mausoleum would protect them forever. Abandoned by the State since 1991, the laboratory survives today through the patronage of the nouveaux riches and the Russian mafia dynasties. Archival and contemporary photographs reinforce the symbolic dimension of this page of history. Now, eighty years after the October Revolution, Boris Yeltsin has requested a referendum to decide the future of Lenin's embalmed remains.
"Ilya Zbarsky's poignant, laconic memoir is partly an account of how his opportunist father Boris came to head the laboratory responsible for keeping Lenin's body in perfect condition. It is also an account of the fate of Soviet science under Stalin and his successors. The stories run in parallel. What comes across strongly in the book, written with the Moscow-based French journalist Sam Hutchinson, is the sheer, offensive stupidity of the Soviet authorities, and the pettiness of their motives."

What size pressure tank do you have? Try turning up the kick-out pressure to keep the pump running.
So I have just finished installing and calibrating my do it yourself irrigation system. And after a few days of flawless performance, my pump is now acting up. Let me caveat with I have a digital timer and solenoid valves where I should be able to run this fully automatic. But I have a small leak in my manifold I haven't fixed yet so I have been operating it manually. I did not install the pump relay as I don't fully understand it and my thoughts were that when left in auto mode, the pressure switch on the well pump should turn the pump on and off as necessary. When all 3 valves are closed, pressure is maintained at 65 psi and will not run, when the system pressure drops below 20 psi, the pump will kick back on from the pressure switch. And it worked fine like this for about 3 days.
However now my pump is kicking on and off repeatedly when trying to irrigate a zone. The gauge pressure jumps up to about 50psi, pump kicks of, pressure drops below 20psi, pump kicks on - and this repeated on and off cycle is in fractions of seconds. So the stream coming out of my heads is pulsating with the pump motor as it kicks on and off. And the worst part of troubleshooting, this doesn't happen every time. But right now it is about 50/50.
Well pump is the Myers HJ100D and the timer is Rainbird SST-900i.
I just put out 6 pallets of St. Augustine sod on Friday...please help if you can. Thank you in advance!!!
What size pressure tank do you have? Try turning up the kick-out pressure to keep the pump running.
Since this is purely to feed an irrigation system that is capable of delivering adeuate flow and pressure with a continuous running of the pump, I did not install a pressure tank. During irrigation, this tank would never fill to provide pressure. My zones are running at 10 gpm therefore this pressure tank would merely be a "flow-through" device. And if it did build pressure intermittently, I wouldn't want the pump cutting on and off that frequently. Because unless I had a huge pressure tank, the pump would kick on and off every minute or so. The cycling would be too rapid in my opinion.
These are just my thoughts - I'm a civil engineer so I'm not totally uneducated in the logic of how these things should work, but I'm not a specialist in irrigation by any stretch. Feel free to correct me if my logic on the pressure tank is flawed.
I may try what you said and increase the pressure on the switch to something higher than the current limit of 70psi and see if that makes a difference. Is there a max pressure that I should be using here? When I get this thing working in fully automatic mode, I hate to have it sitting idle between irrigating cycles at something like 100 psi.
Thanks again for the help in these forums!
1) Add a pressure tank and make sure every zone matches the output of the pump.
2) Add a small pressure tank and a CSV, then you can make the zones any size you want.
3) Use a pump start relay from the irrigation controller instead of a pressure switch.
10-4 valveman. Hear ya loud and clear. I am going to go the route of the pump start relay. So to disconnect the pressure switch, do I just need to remove the tube that connects it to the pressure regulator? And do I need to physically remove it from the pump? Best I can recall it was integral to the power supply connection to the pump itself. Also, is it safe to assume the pump start relay will come with a wiring diagram that shows how it connects to my power source and pump? I read a little on the Rainbird tech support for troubleshooting and have a basic understanding of how it will be installed, just want to make sure it is a DIY level project. I am using a 230V power source for my pump and will obviously turn the breaker off at the power panel and disconnect at the pump before working on any of this.
As I understand it, this relay will ensure that the pump is not maintaining pressure in the lines unless their is a zone activated by the timer. This is by far the best route since I don't really want/need to have a pressurized line from the pump to the manifold. So I'm actually pretty excited about this addition anyway.
Thanks again for the help.
You don't have to remove the pressure switch. Just move the wires from the pressure switch to the pump start relay. Also need a good pressure relief valve. Pump start relays will still start the pump, even if the varmints eat the wire going to the sprinklers. A pressure relief valve will help keep the pump from melting down when this happens.

The Research Chemical Shop is doing everything it can to encourage new business, giving away free samples of their chemicals to businesses willing to pay postage.
San Francisco, CA, United States of America – January 8, 2014 /MarketersMedia/ —
Peptides are synthetic chemical enablers made of chains of amino acids, and are instrumental in the study of protein structures, mass spectrometry and even cancer research. As a result, there is a high demand for these peptides among the research community, and suppliers are always fighting to offer the best peptides at the best price with the best service. The Research Chemical Shop is a relatively new player in this field, but has won clients through the extraordinary purity of its peptides and through its customer service. The company are now offering free samples of peptides to researchers so they can test the difference for themselves.
The company stocks popular peptides including MXP, Flubromazepam, Diphenidine, Mdai and Cannabinoids for research purposes, and each product comes with a full description and price listings for between one and five hundred grams, as well as customer feedback and reviews. The products are all 99% purity or higher, making them ideal for research use.
The company are encouraging new researchers to contact them and arrange for the delivery of free samples of any of their peptides to test the quality and results they get for themselves; the customer need only pay for the postage.
A spokesperson for TheResearchChemicalShop.net explained, "By offering free samples we are looking to encourage those responsible for buying research chemicals on behalf of their labs to sample the chemicals we offer for themselves before making a decision. We understand that competitive prices and excellent customer service are only valuable to researchers if the chemicals themselves are of the highest quality, and we are so confident in ours that we are willing to give away amounts that will confirm this for potential clients, as we are confident they will then switch to us."
About The Research Chemical Shop:
The Research Chemical Shop is run by a small team that supply researchers with the best quality research chemicals in the current market. The company allows customers to buy a small amount to test the quality, and ship to the UK, Europe and the USA. The company was founded in 2012 and intends to become the premier player in the industry.

When sending direct a notification or a copy of the request must be sent to the UKCA Further guidance on obtaining MLA from overseas can be found on the Crown Prosection Service website.
Case-handling arrangements in UKCA
On average, the UKCA deals with approximately 5,000 MLA requests a year.
If accepted, new requests will be allocated to a caseworker who will handle the case throughout. The UKCA will write to the requesting authority to acknowledge receipt and the allocated caseworker will introduce themselves as the point of contact on the case.
The requesting authority will also be informed of the UKCA reference number. This must be quoted in all correspondence and all queries relating to MLA case should be directed to the allocated caseworker in the first instance.
If the UKCA reference number is not known, sufficient details should be given to enable our administration support team to identify the request - at a minimum, this would include the names of the subject/s of the request and where applicable the operation name. It is not sufficient to quote the requesting authority reference number.
Please note that in the absence of a secure email link, the UKCA is unable to discuss the details of a request by email.
Returns and referrals
If the UKCA considers that the letter of request does not contain enough information, it will be returned to you. In 2012, over 1,000 requests were returned due to insufficient information being provided. Please ensure that you address all identified issues before you resubmit a request.
Where appropriate, requests which should have been directed to another central authority in the UK will be forwarded on behalf of the requesting authority.
Where we are unable to forward a request it will be returned to the requesting authority.
De minimis requests
The UK is committed to assisting investigative, prosecuting and judicial authorities in combating international crime and is able to provide a wide range of MLA, however the high volume of incoming requests has led to consideration of the way requests which could be considered de minimis (disproportionate or trivial) are dealt with.
As of 15 July 2013, de minimis MLA requests may be refused by the UKCA. The following criteria will be used to determine whether a request for MLA is considered de minimis:
- there has been a financial loss or gain or damage of less than £1,000
- the alleged offence was committed more than 10 years ago (and there is no, or insufficient, explanation for the delay in investigation or prosecution)
- there are no aggravating circumstances to the conduct under investigation
- a prosecuting authority in the UK would not send a request in similar circumstances
In addition to the criteria listed above, the following factors will also be considered:
- the request is for a coercive investigative measure
- there are resource implications to executing authorities (for example, a large number of witness statements are required over a large geographical area)

Jewelry >Beyond Tradition
221 West 2nd Street, Austin, TX | Directions 7870130.264828 -97.746043
Mon-Sat 10am-7pm
Sun 12am-5pm
Neighborhoods: Downtown
Astounding quality and service – I was in a real fix when a jeweler I had contracted for an engagement ring flaked on me after months of assuring me the ring would be ready by Christmas. I went into Beyond Tradition on a prayer. I explained my situation to the owners and they immediately recommended an artist who surpassed all my wildest dreams as far as quality (a certified master goldsmith from Germany), and personal care (he had the ring ready in a week, three days before Christmas). This is the kind of quality and professionalism that Beyond Traditions represents and brings to the public.
As a side note, the jeweler that took my deposit and did nothing for several months but lead me on has work displayed at a neighboring 2nd St. jewelry store. Until now I had no idea the major differences that exists between each boutique in the downtown area. Some stores carry nice things while other stores carry exceptional artistry and accountability. Beyond Tradition is certainly a store of the second variety and I recommend stopping in, at the very least to see some of the finest quality jewelry in Austin, made by local artists.
Unique and affordable designer jewelry! – Really great store, owner Kappi Bliss, is so easy to love. She really knows how to pick unique and true artists to be represented in her store. I recently went to one of your great jewelry cocktail hours (get on her mailing list for these!! you don't want to miss them!) and I bought an awesome and unique bracelet by local Austin designer Sarah Scott, the bracelet is made with actual Chanel Chains that Sarah got from the old Chanel Warehouses! Is that not so Austin! It is truly a great piece and I love telling the story behind it. Thats just part of what makes this store so cool. Not to mention I love buying local and supporting other Austin small business owners! Kappi, also has some of the most beautiful turquoise and semi precious stone jewelry you will ever see. She also has a great line from Italy, that will really impress you (truly some of the most ornate and detailed metal designed jewelry I have ever seen) I mean take your breath away beautiful. If you want unique and conversational pieces, at affordable - dont break the bank prices. This is the local Austin store you need to check out! I stop by whenever I'm downtown, just to see what new pieces Kappi has brought in!
Amazing Jewelry and Fabulous Service – Stumbled into this hidden treasure while on vacation. Kappie treated us like guests in her home. When she didn't have what I wanted she took my information and contacted the artist directly. In less than 2 weeks I have custom made pieces at a very reasonable price. The place is great and Kappie is a true gem!
Genuinely personal service – Looked all over town for the perfect birthday gift for my girlfriend and found it at Beyond Tradition. Kappie the owner immediately felt like a good friend, and her service alone was enough to make my experience memorable. The earrings were perfect and designed by a local artist which was important to me. My girlfriend loved them and Beyond Tradition is now on my short list of gift destinations.
Editorial Review – Beyond Tradition is Austin's favorite boutique for eclectic one-of-a-kind jewelry.
Fabulous collection – Wonderful jewelry showroom; lovely pieces by local jewelers, reasonably affordable. Unique pieces of jewelry, most importantly, the owner is very friendly and attentive, it made me want to shop there. She showed me several pieces, even though I was hesitant to make an impulsive decision on a bracelet, she assured me that I could come back any time, and to think about the item, rare with many Austin boutiques. I did buy a beautfiul pearl and gold bracelet for a friend, who absolutely loved it!!! I will definitely go back for future jewelry purchases.
One of the most eclectic collections of jewelry – Kappie's wonderful shop on 2nd street has one of the most eclectic collections of jewelry I have found in Austin. Priced to fit in every budget too! She knows her artists first hand, and can chat up a storm about the details of each collection. She has trunk shows at least monthly, often more frequently, with designers on site to meet and greet. I highly recommend the shop if you are seeking unique pieces for yourself or someone special!
Your great great grandchildren will fight over this unique jewelry! – Kappie's knowledge of her designers' pieces was impressive. She is a great voice for the designers and obviously shares their passion of handcrafted, unique, and quality heirlooms. Your shopping experience will be non-pressured and one of the highlights of your day. Tibetan pieces. Turquoise. Hand crafted silver. Stop by... you'll fall in love with Kappie and her jewelry!
Beyond Tradition has the BATs beat in Austin! – Beyond Tradition has the BATS beat in Austin!
Enjoyable, no stress customer experience when talking with delightful owner Kappy (she is indeed a happy Kappy) about the luxurious items for sale many with an elegant and stylish Texan twist. The silver and turquoise jewelry is fabulous--come prepared for quality and to be oh-wowed! Cowgirl boots, too. Being a small business, Kappy really appreciates your patronage and shows it. Go!

BMW: In-Drive Conversation with Open Source
Bavarian automaker BMW has set its sights on Open Source for the infotainment packages of its cars. If it were up to BMW, all automakers would be working on a common platform.
It was in March at its "Fahrzeug IT 2008" conference that BMW first presented its plans to develop infotainment packages for its luxury cars based on Open Source technology. BMW already ventured into a cooperative undertaking with chipmaker Intel and embedded Linux vendor Wind River. Its goal was uniform ports for multimedia applications in its cars, with the basic idea to use readily available instead of costly internally developed software. At the Convergence 2008 auto show in Detroit, BMW campaigned for coordinated work among the automakers on the Open Source platform.
A cooperation spirit in new development is not uncommon among automakers at first glance. As BMW spokesperson for innovation and research Katharina Boelsterl states, "a strong collaboration is desirable especially for noncompetitive functionality." She says that carmakers generally divide their development into two spheres. One is the specific classic electronics area, such as related to drive handling characteristics, that generally stays with the manufacturer. The other sphere is infotainment electronics where this rule doesn't apply and where actual collaboration is already occurring. Boelsterl suggests that the Consumer Electronics for Automotive (CE4A) project is one example. Under the umbrella of the German VDA auto industry association, automakers are working on a common port for mobile phone, navigation device and multimedia software. The Autosar development partnership is to have similar goals. It is a forum designed for international automakers to mull over such things as drive trains and steering mechanisms for the common good.
The open source portal is an important theme for BMW's infotainment initiative, although no details have yet been released. By year's end, the automaker does promise an open, effective multimedia platform for a faster and simpler development of automotive entertainment software.
More telematics open sourceOpen source telematics protocol NGTP is a further development that involve BMW, Volvo and more players. The "Next Generation Telematics Protocol" Initiative is intended to establish a standardized infrastructure for the delivery of innovative services to vehicles on the move. For more information about NGTP, please visit www.ngtp.org. www.wirelesscar.com can also help you to progress!

In a statement to NewsChannel 5 Investigates, Tri-Star Energy president William Kimbro said:
"Middle Tennessee is a competitive market for the sale of gasoline and diesel. Consumers have many options when deciding where to buy fuel and our experience is that they compare prices at various locations that sell fuel before making their purchase.
"For example, our fueling locations in Brentwood compete with stores in Nashville, Cool Springs and all of the surrounding areas where consumers travel throughout the day. These same consumers are well aware that there are Costco, Home Depot and Sam's Club sites in the Cool Springs area that sell fuel and compete with our Brentwood locations. In addition, there are independently-owned stations located within a few miles of most of our stores, as well as fueling centers owned by other companies.
"We can't talk specifically about pricing because of federal anti-trust laws but, we can tell you that our prices are competitive."
Emily LeRoy, associate director of the Tennessee Oil Marketers Association, told NewsChannel 5 Investigates that "the number of locations owned by a single entity is not necessarily tied to having a comparable percentage of the fuel volume in a given county or city. For instance, a large big box retailer may have more daily gasoline volume than multiple convenience stores."
Still, none of those companies that LeRoy states "may" not have as much volume would release information about their market positions.
LeRoy notes that crude is the biggest component of gas prices. See the U.S. government's Energy Information Service.

AUSTIN -- It's a common childhood illness, so much so most people have had it by the age of two.
Yet doctors say respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is among the leading causes of infant viral death. This is the season for RSV, and local healthcare systems are seeing an increase in cases.
Sean Evans brought his son Aiden to the Scott & White Pediatric Clinic in Round Rock. The seven-month-old is having trouble with his left eye. Evans says keeping a constant eye on children is vital and yet nearly impossible.
"You try to do the best that you can to protect them," said Evans.
Evans is aware of respiratory syncytial virus that attacks the nose and lung linings.
"In most people it just creates a really bad cold," said Bradley Berg, M.D., the pediatric clinic's medical director. "You'll get a lot of coughing, congestion, sneezing, coughing and low-grade fever. It lasts for about one to two weeks and then goes away."
Berg says the virus can become far more serious in children six months or younger, kids born premature or with lung or heart disease.
"Those kids can have a lot more problems with it, because it basically creates a viral pneumonia," said Berg.
So how do you know if your child is suffering from RSV or another seasonal illness like the flu? Dr. Berg says there's really no way of knowing without testing. Doctors can swab the inside of the patient's nose and send that to a lab. Those results will determine if your child needs to go to a hospital where oxygen, nose suction and even asthma-type treatments can be given.
Evans says the fact RSV can produce simple cold symptoms or something far more serious just emphasizes the difficulties parents face keeping their kids healthy this time of year.
"It's a hard argument," he said. "It's hard discussions when you're exposed even at a hospital."
Doctor berg says 25 to 45 percent of children who come down with RSV will develop pneumonia. However he says only one percent of those patients will require a trip to the hospital.

Reports are coming in now that two of those killed with the Ambassador were Marines.
Reports are coming in now that two of those killed with the Ambassador were Marines.
KGS Nightwatch had some comments about the attack on the US embassy in Cairo, which was triggered by the same event:
Egypt-US: Protesters scaled the walls of the US embassy in Cairo on Tuesday and pulled down the American flag during a protest over what they said was a film being produced in the United States that insulted Prophet Mohammad, witnesses said. In place of the US flag, the protesters tried to raise a black flag with the words "There is no God but Allah and Mohammad is his messenger," a Reuters reporter said. Once the U.S. flag was hauled down, protesters tore it up, with some showing off small pieces to television cameras. Then others burned remains.This is starting to look like 1979 all over again, although in Libya's case, the government immediately issued an apology. This isn't Iran, where Khomeini lauded the embassy attackers and supported them. However, Egypt is the real issue, as the stakes are much higher there. The Muslim Brotherhood has made no attempt to prevent these acts, and is most likely responsible for them. Morsi will use this as a pretext to consolidate even more power and purge pro-US members of the military, and may even permit an embassy takeover, a la Iran, if he perceives an opportunity. The big question for our media is, did Obama's policies of "leading from behind" in Libya and throwing Mubarak under the bus, as Carter did with the Shah, lead to the same kind of attacks on our embassies? Don't hold your breath for detailed coverage of that.
A statement by the US embassy blamed the makers of the film for, essentially, bringing this violence down on the US embassy. "We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others," the U.S. embassy said in its statement.
Comment: The mainstream news services have covered the details about the storming of the US Embassy compound in Cairo. Several points are worth comment.
- The first is the US Embassy's statement either is a meaningless personal statement by a scared staff or a poorly informed misrepresentation of US law. It is settled US case law, for example, that neo-Nazis can march in Jewish suburbs in any city in the US under specified conditions. No religion gets a pass. An ambassador should know that. He also should have denounced those who use religion to justify venting their anti-American sentiments in violence and destruction. The result is the US embassy appears to be apologizing to misguided, out of control rioters who were allowed by Egyptian authorities to violate US sovereign territory.
Apologies by the innocent victims of violence are acts of submission that stoke demands for greater acts of submission, even in US culture. To some Muslims, including groups in Pakistan, the very existence of the US or Israel is an affront to their interpretation of Islam and "hurts their religious beliefs." There is no way to avoid hurting their religious sensibilities.
- Finally, no news services reported the presence of the Egyptian police or paramilitary security forces or any effort to control the rioters. No news clips showed Egyptian security personnel. Some news services in the past have reported that the civil disorders of the past year have resulted in the destruction of the Egyptian civil police as an effective force for civil order.
Three Carriers in the region. Alpha strikes would be good initial response.
Egypt is more dangerous, because from what we can see, there has been no official response to the attack on our embassy. If the Lbyan perps are not dealt with by their government, then we can expect more attacks in Egypt, as well as Tunisia, Algeria and pretty much any other Muslim state where we have a presence. My concern is that we may end up with a repeat of the Iranian hostage crisis somewhere in the Middle East. The worst place would be Egypt, but any of the other regional players would be ugly.
Another thing to watch is how this plays out in the rest of the region. Turkey has been Islamicizing for the last decade, and I would not be surprised if there was at least a protest at our embassy there, not to mention the NATO facilities. Jordan is pretty moderate, but if the Islamists see an opportunity, we can expect them to try to stir up anti-American, and by extension, anti-monarchy, sentiment. Kuwait will most likely not see any major activities, unless the Kuwaitis decide to pay some Bangladeshi servants to riot. Saudi Arabia will most likely not have any activities, since they are funding te rest of this, and the regime there will crack down hard on any attempt at independent Islamic activities.
FWIW, I suspect that the CENTCOM THREATCON is probably maxed out right now.
At least the Egyptian protestors were not armed and didn't kill anyone. They were showing the protests on the news this morning, and the Egyptian security forces were at work by then (I know it took them a while to respond). The protests had become pretty much verbal, but most of the crowd was just milling around and talking on their cell phones by that point. "Look, Mom, I'm on The Today Show!".
What. The. Fuck?
To add insult to injury the magic negro gets Hillary to apologize to the poor scum of the earth muslims.

Blue Hens Capture 2013 CAA Field Hockey Title
NEWARK, Del. (Nov. 10, 2013) - Top-seeded Delaware used five goals from five different players to defeat third-seeded Northeastern, 5-1, in Sunday's 2013 CAA Field Hockey Championship Game at Rullo Stadium in Newark, Del.
Delaware, currently ranked No. 17 in Division I, improved to 16-4 on the year and captured the school's third CAA Field Hockey Championship and first since 2009. The Blue Hens posted a perfect 6-0 in league play to earn their first regular season title and also hosted their first CAA field hockey championship this weekend.
UD claims the CAA's automatic berth into the NCAA Division I Field Hockey Tournament and finds out its future destination and opponent during tonight's selection show on NCAA.com at 10:00 p.m.
"This is a great group of players that feed the ball to each other, assist each other and score goals for each other," Third-year UD coach Rolf van de Kerkhof said. "We play defense as a team and offense as a team. If we stick to our game plan, we have a chance to be very competitive and perhaps very dangerous."
UD received goals from Esmee Peet, Michaela Patzner, Meghan Winesett, Kasey Prettyman and Maddie O'Beirne.
After a slow start in Friday's semifinal win over William & Mary, the Blue Hens came out firing versus NU on Sunday. UD had eight penalty corners in the first half alone and started with one less than a minute in, as Peet collected a feed from Allie Mikelson and ripped home a shot past Garner at the 54-second mark for a 1-0 lead.
Nearly two minutes later, Prettyman, a senior, waited near the front of the net on a corner and easily tipped in a rebound to push the lead to 2-0. In similar fashion yet again, O'Beirne scored on a corner at 18:26, after finding a crease past a diving Garner.
Less than one minute before halftime, Winesett, who was named to the CAA All-Rookie and second team, blasted a shot into the upper netting from 15 yards out for the unassisted tally and 4-0 Blue Hens advantage.
In the second half, the Blue Hens dictated the play thanks to their large lead. Goalkeeper Sarah Scher made a couple of highlight saves and finished with four overall. The senior was named Most Outstanding Player of the championship, allowing a total of just three goals over the weekend.
"This is amazing," added Scher. "We came out so strong today and as a team, our main thing was to come out 23 strong for tournament play and we did just that. Everybody came out and executed and that's all you can ask for. I've always had my teammates to support me and keep me going every single day, so I have everybody to share this MVP award with."
Patzner added some extra insurance for the hosts with 12-plus minute's remaining, collecting a rebound from 12 yards for the put-back score. It was her team and conference-leading 16th goal of the season.
Northeastern, which scored twice in the second half to defeat Drexel on Friday night, could not dig itself out of the deficit. With seven-plus minutes remaining, though, Bennett stepped up and provided the lone goal after a nice assist from Zoe Kale. It was the senior's 11th of the season.
Also joinging Scher on the All-Tournament team were Winsett, Patznet and Prettyman from the Blue Hens, as well as Bennett, Garner and Natalie Stewart from the Huskies. Drexel's Lindsay McArdle and Lauren Hibshman and William & Mary's Jesse Ebner and Chaney Manganello were also honored on the All-Tournament squad.
Delaware outshot the Huskies, 17-9 and recorded an 8-6 advantage in penalty corners.
"I'm speechless right now," Prettyman said. "I've been preparing the last four years for this and it's unreal. All of the sprints and hard practices that made you want to quit; it's all worth it right now. As seniors, if we had lost today, it would have been our last game ever. Everything is paying off and I'm just happy to continue this journey."

Well this is rad. We came across this post a few weeks back of The Muffs, joined by The Bangles, performing The Beatles' Rain for an Autism Think Tank benefit. It's cool to see Muffs guitarist and singer Kim Shattuck is still rocking her Black and White Racer X Guitar Strap she wore while touring recently as The Pixies' bassist. Now that she's back, The Muffs are going strong as ever and we just noticed they signed with the OC Music Phenomenon Burger Records and played their blowout Burgerama mega concert recently which was dubbed by The LA Weekly recently as the more-relevant-than-Coachella music event of the year. Ronnie's looking pretty sharp in his green cardigan too by the way!
It wasn't too long ago we were covering Saturday Night Live actor Fred Armisen's SNL farewell performance, and that Portlandia co-star Carrie Brownstein was wearing herCouch 80's Mercedes Guitar Strap. Well if you haven't seen it yet, it was recently announced Fred will be the band leader on Seth Meyer's new Late Night on NBC! Here's the imageas it's seen when it was on our homepage player:We so stoked to hear this, and even more stoked when we saw that in the pic that was used for the press release Fred Armisen was wearing our Cadillac Silverburst Guitar Strap front and center. To be clear, Fred does not endorse Couch in any way, he just has been wearing this strap lately and we think it's really cool and wanted to share that with you here.So rad!!! This pic was seemingly everywhere on the web that day including The Huffington Post, Los Angeles Times, Billboard.com, Hollywood Reporter etc etc. Check the next pic of Armisen wearing the strap live on the show. Especially cool is if you look close you can see he's affixed a Devo patch on the strap-Fred must have put it on there to honor guitarist Bob Casale who passed away recently. RIP Bob2.
In any event, Fred we are truly honored. Love Couch.
We were at The El Rey in Los Angeles recently to see The Strokes guitar player Albert Hammond Jr. In addition to his new record we love his first release Yours To Keep and we had to catch him live when he was in town. Now we had heard The Strokes' other guitar player Nic Valensi had purchased a number of our straps from Silverlake's old boutique Pull My Daisy a while back and that was really cool. It was just as cool to roll into the El Rey and notice Albert Hammond Jr.'s Bass Player Reno Bo was rocking a Couch Vintage Volkswagen Guitar Strap at the El Rey! Thanks Reno!
This Jan And Dan "Look Out For Doug" video has started to become a mini meme lately with about 200,000 hits and counting. It's pretty playful and tongue in cheek and we love seeing the Couch Runway Blue W/ White Racer X Strap in a starring role! After viewing this video, our friend's nephew innocently and hilariously commented "if I like this song am I a bad person?" The reality is we actually think the song is pretty good and our guess is these guys just found a creative way to promote their song and it appears to be working. Oh and thanks for rocking Couch!
We were stoked to hear recently that The Pixies are getting together with some new songs for a new tour. Even cooler is that with long time bassist Kim Deal stepping down, LA great Kim Shattuck of The Muffs is stepping in in Kim's Deal's place. We love Kim and The Muffs!!! We've seen Shattuck play as recently as a couple months back here in Long Beach at Alex's Bar, and she freaking rules on her own right. It's nice of her to lend a hand and allow all of us to continue to enjoy those freaking classic Pixies songs played live. The band is still writing and debuted a couple new songs on Jimmy Fallon recently as posted here on Rollingstone.com. They also recently played Chicago's Riot Fest with the like of The Replacements, Blondie and Dinosaur Jr. among others. Kim is pictured here with her Black & White Racer X Strap which she is wearing on Jimmy Fallon on tour right now. Yeah!
Earlier this year The Couch Cat Strap was narry a glimmer in our eye so it was crazy to see Bad Religion Guitarist Brian Baker rocking one just 3 months later in front of 50,000 people.
In case you didn't know, Brian is a bit of a punk legend best known as one of the founding members of Minor Threat, and has been a member of Bad Religion since 1994. He also was in some of our favorite 80's and 90's punk bands like The Meatmen and Dag Nasty respectively.
In any event, we're not sure where Brian picked up this strap, but we're honored he's chosen to rock Couch, and great taste on the strap choice too!
Have you heard the new Mavis Staples single "I Like The Things About Me" yet? The song freaking rules! Like her last Grammy Award winning album "You Are Not Alone", her brand new record "One True Vine" was produced by Wilco song leader Jeff Tweedy. Anyway we were watching her performance on Jon Stewart last night when we noticed bass player Jeff Turmes was wearing his Black & White Racer X Guitar Strap.
Dude that strap seems to have been getting a lot of use by Jeff the last couple years. We originally covered him live on The Colbert Report him wearing this strap here in our blog back in 2010. Jeff is a really cool and really busy guy, who, in addition to playing with Mavis Staples and releasing his own work, has played alongside the likes of Tom Waits, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Canned Heat and Koko Taylor.
Thanks Jeff for rocking Couch!!! Here's a link to the video.
Couch on SNL! Wild Flag guitarist Carrie Brownstein rocks her 80's Mercedes Guitar Strap on SNL's farewell for her Portlandia partner Fred Armisen. Joining them is rock royalty Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis, Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon, and Sex Pistols' Steve Jones. Also joining them on stage were Aimee Mann and Michael Penn. Yeaah!! You can watch it here.
1)DO NOT USE YOUR PANT SIZE TO FIGURE OUT THE SIZE OF YOUR BELT! It shouldn't be so hard to figure out your belt size right? Well you'd think so, but we get a lot of returns from people saying their belt is too small. We looked into it and learned a thing or two ourselves. The first thing is that most designers "Vanity Size" their pants, so that you think you have a smaller waist than you actually do. Check this chart out we found on another cool belt maker's page- it shows also how much this can vary from designer to designer. We wear for instance size 30 and 34 pants from different designers that fit the same! So How Do You Do It?
2) Measure A Belt You Already Have To Get Your Belt Size Find a belt of your own or from someone else that seems to fit for your normal average use, preferably to the center hole. Measure the number of inches from the center hole (or the hole you use) you use to the center post of the buckle. Then subtract 1 to 2 inches. For example, say your current belt measures 35 inches from the center post to hole you use. Taking 2 inches off gives you a belt size of 33. Which leads us to our last point...
3) When In Doubt Round Up In the example above, we've determined our belt size to be a "33", but most companies make only a 30, 32, and 34 if that. In this case round up to the size 34 not down to the 32 for the best likely fit. That's how you do it!
Check this video out here and we'll show you how to do this.
4) We've Got Your Back
Also know that if for any reason your belt still doesn't fit just send it back within 30 days and we'll exchange it of course! Hopefully this blog and video will drastically reduce the chances of that ever happening in the first place. Also, you can check out our USA Made Vegan belts here. Rock! Couch.

SIMPLE_1 (SIMulation Program for Logistics Engin'g) is a discrete/continuous network-oriented simulation language with general-purpose programming language features. The Linux version of this software includes a project management system to automate integration of user-developed C/C++ code into SIMPLE_1 network models. A user's C/C++ code is interfaced with the SIMPLE_1 modeling language through information embedded in comments in the user's header file(s). SIMPLE_1 produces executable files with the help of the C++ compiler.
Open DESIRE is a modeling/simulation language for dynamic systems and neural networks, a runtime compiler, and an experiment-protocol script for simulation studies. It supports up to 40,000 differential equations or neural networks, in scalar and/or vector form. It also supports very fast Monte Carlo studies and complex frequency-response plots.
Championship Generator produces a list of all the meetings which must occur between the participants of a championship. It can be used to produce the challenges between teams if competitions are not foreseen to directed elimination. It supports championships where it is necessary to consider the matches at home and away. It can also try to avoid fights between the big teams in the first and last days. It also supports the case in which two teams have a mutual stadium, and therefore cannot simultaneously play at home or away.
Motorsport is a project with a clear goal: to create the most realistic vehicle simulation possible. This includes cars and trucks, which can be driven using common input devices such as keyboards and steering wheels. It limits realism to what the hardware, and is intended for hardcore driving simulator fans. This means that it will try to have realistic physics, but not necessarily 'playable', 'easy', or 'fun' physics - these characteristics will depend on which vehicle is driven and on what a person is trying to drive it.
PHP Keno Simulator is a payout ruleset simulator for the classic game Keno. You can tune the payout chart to fulfill your "house advantage" or you can just calculate for fun (predefining the correct payouts) what the odds of winning are and how much your local casino is making for its owners.
In p, a bunch of particles interact with each other according to this simple rule: every particle moves towards, away, or watches other particles. When the program starts, each particle chooses a random color, position, and the particles with which it will interact. As the program runs, some particles join together to form a train and journey together thereafter. Some orbit each other. Some collapse into each other. Some form swarms that split and join. One cannot predict when or where or how many of these behaviors will emerge, but they usually do.
ODE is a high performance library for simulating rigid body dynamics. It is fully featured, stable, mature, and platform independent with an easy-to-use C/C++ API. It has advanced joint types and integrated collision detection with friction. ODE is useful for simulating vehicles, objects in virtual reality environments, and virtual creatures. It is currently used in many computer games, 3D authoring tools, and simulation tools.
PyParticles is a particle simulation toolbox entirely written in Python. It simulates a particle-by-particle model with the most popular integrations methods, including Euler, Runge Kutta, and Midpoint. It represents the results on an OpenGL or Matplotlib plot, and offers an easy-to-use API.

The cultural mashup dictionary: Tweecanos
Photo by TexasT/Flickr (Creative Commons)
I've never met @xicano007, but a tweet from this East L.A. blogger and sports card collector brings us yet another entry for our evolving dictionary of cultural mashup terms: tweecanas and tweecanos.
Here's how it was used, in a tweet from yesterday mentioning an upcoming performance by Aztlan Underground:
RT @xicano007: Next Saturday at the BLVD in BOYLE HEIGHTS join @Aztlanug @laloalcaraz & some tweecanas/tweecanos for a night of rebeldia
It's perfect. Not sure if @xicano007 coined it, but who cares? Plus it sounds like a great show.
Multi-American's cultural mashup dictionary kicked off this spring. It's a collection of occasional entries, bits and pieces of the evolving lexicon of words, terms and phrases coined as immigrants and their descendants influence the English language, and it influences them.

A recent post on the neologism Googlear has inspired two related entries to Multi-American's evolving cultural mashup dictionary: The social media mashup terms Twittear and Feisbuk.
First, the Wiktionary definition of twittear:
From the online microblogging website, Twitter.
twittear (first-person singular present twitteo, first-person singular preterite twitteé, past participle twitteado)
1. (Internet) to tweet
I've used and heard "twittear" among Spanish-English bilinguals for quite a while, but there's also this adaptation below, as posted in the comments under the "googlear" post by ar2ro:
more than likely i see "el twitter" being used more in time than "twittear."
ex: ya mandaste el tweet? (did you send the tweet?)
mire tu mesaje en el twitter. (i saw you message on twitter)
me gusta el twitter (i like twitter)
twittear somehow does not sound right. even googlear sounds a bit funky, but does roll off the tongue in spanish rather well.

Thank you, News Taco, for calling to mind a term that merits a place in the evolving cultural mashup dictionary: Googlear.
Yesterday the website published a brief post on a report from ClickZ, which provides marketing news, on the Google search habits of Latinos. I'd seen the report earlier and it's interesting in itself: Among other things, 93 percent of Latinos use Google for searches, 80 percent of Spanish keyword searches come from the search engine's English interface (which likely means that bilingual Latinos are searching the English interface), and Latinos are big smartphone users, with a greater tendency to use cell phones in their searches than the general market.
But back to the term "googlear," which the post featured prominently in a graphic. I say this all the time without thinking about it. It's not just any neologism but a double one, a new term coined from another new term. Here is the sort-of official definition of googlear from Wikipedia:

Wow Jen, you did get dumped on! Is that Anthony trudging around in his snowsuit? Sweet little boy!
We had two inches day before yesterday, it rained that evening and now it's all gone.
Just wanted to share some pictures of the snow where l live.
Wow Jen, you did get dumped on! Is that Anthony trudging around in his snowsuit? Sweet little boy!
We had two inches day before yesterday, it rained that evening and now it's all gone.
You knew I was going to love this thread don't you?
Thanks for sharing your pics, I hope you had fun with your little boy!!
Cute boy Jen. I am guessing he had a good time in the snow. Our kids always loved snow, perhaps it was because we didn't see it that often and school let out. I don't mind the snow, but we always get the ice storms. That is no fun.
Sweet little boy, Jen. It's time to show him how to build a snowman! He'll love it. Here, in Greece, it probably won't snow and I'm sad...
Goodbye Rosanne...Your "family" in TCB will always remember you.
Thank you everyone. Love seeing the snow, it really make its feel like christmas
Your son looks like he's having a blast in the snow! That's what it's doing right now where I live. Suppose to be 2-4''
Hehe, Jen...lucky you
I'm still waiting for the snow over here...I need a snow dance lol
Lovely pictures, thanks for sharing
Great Photos Jen...Anthony looks soo cute,and really enjoying the snow!
Thanks for showing us...all we got here is rain and gale force winds...:
Marija: Everybody do a snow Dance for Marija ,!!!.: :so she can get some snow,Then one for popo ,!!!.:
Rosanne 4/27/59-7/22/09 Rest in Peace
My Radio shows every Thursday and Sunday at 7pm UK time
Thanks everyone, wish you all had snow for christmas
We woke up to two inches of snow this morning Jen and are expecting more. Can't wait for our grandson to come over and slide on our hill.
Also hoping for a patch of ice so our Snicker cat can get his rock and play hockey and slide on his paws and rump down the car tire tracks (he really does this lol - it's his private luge track lol).
Looks great. I can't wait until we get some of the white stuff here.
You snow and Christmas lovers who use Firefox, I recommend adding on a theme called X-Mas. In addition to some Christmas-themed icons, snow falls at the top of your browser and into your address bar.
There are a couple others as well: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...stmas&status=4
...you won't forget me when I go.
great pics Jen! Thanks for sharing and showing us your cute little boy......should have had one taken with mommy in it too! No snow here in Florida, sadly. My 10 yr old daughter wants to see snow - I told her "if we go anywhere to see snow, you'll know where it'll be".......her reply? "No Mom! We are not going back to Graceland!" She went with me in June and wasn't as excited as I was......kids.....go figure! lol.....
Snow---- What Is That???? Oh That White Stuff On The Ground That We Hardly Ever See....lol
*Clenches eyes shut* I wish that Memphis can get some of Wisconsin's snow.... especially around Graceland!
