I'm looking for a local source of dried banana chips in bulk (by the pound - need 4-5 pounds). We found some at Krogers, on special in 6 oz. bags for $1.00/bag. They are no longer available in the stores I checked, but that set the target price for us.
Any ideas?

Mark Grace has no hard feelings toward D-backs
In early 2013, that figure is back with the team in a diplomatic capacity.
Former broadcaster Mark Grace, who was arrested on DUI charges for the second time in 16 months last August, is representing the Diamondbacks at their annual Fantasy Camp in Scottsdale.
Grace took a leave of absence to deal with his issues and was officially let go by the team at the conclusion of the season, but he holds no ill will for the decision the organization ultimately made.
"They had no choice," Grace told the media Monday. "One thing I try to teach my children and I expect from myself and expected from my teammates is accountability. The Diamondbacks didn't do anything wrong, I did."
Despite still dealing with the legal ramifications of his actions, Grace is thrilled to be wearing the Sedona red again this week for the annual event.
"Because of some circumstances, I wasn't real sure if I was going to be able to get out here or not, but about two weeks ago, I got the call and I obviously jumped at the chance and I'm thankful for the opportunity," Grace said. "A lot of guys in my situation don't get these kind of opportunities so kudos to such a class move on the Diamondbacks' part."
Grace played three seasons for the Diamondbacks, which included the 2001 season that ended in the franchise's only World Series championship. In 2004, Grace took over the color commentator role on D-backs television broadcasts, a role he held until his second arrest.
The Diamondbacks tabbed former manager and broadcaster Bob Brenly to take over Grace's position in the offseason.
"I'm doing as good as I can possibly do," Grace said. "I'm getting to spend a lot of time at home which means a lot of time with my two boys. A lot more fatherhood is always a good thing."
Grace joins other former Diamondbacks Luis Gonzalez, Matt Williams, Steve Finley, Reggie Sanders, Damian Miller, Mike Morgan, Mike Fetters, Greg Swindell and Jay Bell for the eighth annual Fantasy Camp. Eighty participants will spend the week living their own baseball dreams and will play in a game against the former stars to end the week.
"There's nothing better for a player or a former player than putting a uniform back on," Grace said. "It's probably like a soldier feels if they get back in uniform. It's a special thing to wear this, and once again, I'm thankful to the Diamondbacks for letting me put on the colors again, it's great."

Lexmark has PREBATE and NONPREBATE ink cartridges. PREBATE inkjet cartridges are sold at a discount but MAY NOT be refilled. Your printer will not accept or print a refilled PREBATE cartridge. These Lexmark inkjet cartridges are NONPREBATE cartridges and MAY be refilled. When you have gone through all of the ink in your cartridge, you may save money by simply refilling this cartridge. Your printer will not show ink levels for the refilled cartridge but will still print beautifully.
Page Yield is an approximation of the number of standard pages that can be printed with one cartridge, usually measured at 5% page coverage. 5% coverage is a standard 8.5 x 11 inch page with a light letterhead, address and three paragraphs of text double spaced. If you print mixed text and graphics or WebPages your page coverage is closer to 15% and therefore the number of pages printed with each cartridge will be less. If you are printing photos your page coverage is close to 100% and the number of printed photos will be much less than the amount the number of pages you would be able to print if you were just printing standard text documents.

I have been working at Auxilium Pharmaceuticals
Pros – For the moment, Auxilium Pharmaceuticals is still a small company in terms of interaction with managment, level of personal responsibility , empowerment and challenge in the job and (to a more limited extent), flexibility in working practices. The level of kindness and respectful behavior is unprecedentedly high in my work experience. Daily free lunch and company-sponsored fitness center membership (occasionally at odds with each other :o)!) are nice perquisites.
Cons – The emphasis on getting things done not just quickly, but in a ridiculously expedited fashion leads to mistakes, frequently serious, and an overall lack of quality in the end products. This has resulted in part from too much investment in Project Management and Sales (at the expense of investment in projects to manage and sell!), in part from "holdover nepotism" on the part of the company's founder, which placed inexperienced and/or unqualified people in key management roles, and in part from woeful ignorance on the part of past and present management regarding the whole process of drug development.
Advice to Senior Management – Success in this business these days requires a vision beyond the present development candidate. Adding indications, regardless of market size, will not support growth; patents DO expire eventually! Slow down and do things right from the beginning.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Worcester Warriors have announced the signings of Gloucester duo Matt Cox and Ryan Mills, who will join the club at the end of the current season.
The pair will join the Sixways club this off-season as the Warriors continue to build for the future.
Cox will be familiar to Warriors supporters, having graduated from the club academy in 2007 before spending three years as a first-team player.
The 25-year-old moved to Gloucester in 2010 and has gone on to make 58 appearances for them.
He was instrumental as Gloucester won the LV= Cup in 2011 and has helped his current side secure a Heineken Cup position for two of the last three seasons.
On the international front, the Redditch-born forward represented England at U18 and U19 levels before starring for the U20s during the successful 2008 Six Nations campaign. He has also played sevens for his country.
"When Dean approached me and told me about his plans for my hometown club, I knew it was something I wanted to be part of," said Cox.
"I've worked closely with Carl at Gloucester and with those two at the helm, I believe the club will be successful in the future.
"With the likes of Chris Pennell and Alex Grove committing to the club, it is clear to see how much potential there is."
Cox will be joined at Sixways by team-mate Mills, who will make the short journey north after four years at Kingsholm.
The centre, who can also play at fly-half, has scored 35 points in 20 games for Nigel Davies' side since graduating from Hartpury College.
He previously spent 12 years with Exeter Chiefs from the age of five before cementing a place in the England U18 and U20 squads.
Mills was part of the U20 Junior World Cup and Six Nations squads in 2011 and 2012, helping his country to Grand Slam success in the latter three years ago.
Mills said: "I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Gloucester. It's been unfortunate, however, that I haven't played as much as I would have liked due to a number of injuries.
"The opportunity to join Worcester was one I was keen to take. I am extremely excited to link-up with Dean Ryan and Carl Hogg and can't wait to join the club on their journey ahead."

Tylek Sorrell scored eight points in the win followed Marcus Byrd with six, Eamonn Collins with five, JaQuan Thompson with four, Howard Plummer with three and Marcus Ball with two.
After a long trip to Windsor, Ellis emerged as the leading scorer with 19 points, to go along with 10 rebounds and five assists. Byrd also had a double-double with 17 points and 12 rebounds.
Fisher was the only other player to score in double digits with 12. Sorrell and JaQuan Thompson each scored eight followed by Collins with five and DaShawn Thompson with three.
The boys' JV team also earned a win defeating King & Queen 43-23.
The girls' varsity team joined the boys defeating their opponents as well such as King & Queen 49-13 and Windsor 53-28. In the win over King & Queen, Selene Epps had a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds to lead the team. Epps was followed with Ashley Towles scoring eight points and collecting out four steals.
Kelsey Berhalter and Lasheonia Smith each scored six points, followed by Nakya Ward with five, Rhiannon Mulvena with four and Keshawna Veney with three.
Epps and Berhalter combined for 40 rebounds and 29 points to help lead the Raiders to their win over Windsor last Friday. Epps scored 15 points and collected 25 rebounds, while Berhalter had a career high 14 points to go along with 15 rebounds.
Towles chipped in with 11 points, followed by Veney with six, Smith with five and Lexi Hanks with two.
The girls' JV team was off for the week.

Insurance companies are in focus on Wall Street after Monday's monster tornado in Oklahoma. The record year for thunderstorm and tornado losses was 2011 when tornadoes struck Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Joplin, Missouri. In fact, the five worst years for tornadoes were 2008 to 2012. The Insurance Information Institute tells the Washington Post it appears extreme weather incidents are becoming more frequent.
And an analyst at BMO Capital Markets says the losses from Monday's storm system could exceed Joplin and Tuscaloosa.
In the meantime, not much of a summer break for auto workers. Ford is cutting back on summer shutdowns, idling North American assembly plants for only a week instead of two, to ramp up demand for F-Series pickups and Fusion sedans. General Motors isn't idling plants at all according to AP. And Chrysler is only planning two-week breaks at fewer than half of its North American assembly plants.
Twitter is becoming the social media destination of choice for teenagers. They say Facebook has too many adults, too much drama, and too much teen angst and inane details about people's lives. Citing Pew research, AP says teens are spending less time on Facebook, and more on Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr instead.

In this procedure a catheter is introduced through a vein and advanced until it reaches your heart. Then, electrodes are heated with a radiofrequency energy that subsequently destroys (ablates) areas of the heart tissue that where causing the arrhythmia. This procedure is most frequently used to treat arrhythmias such as atrial flutter.
Various causes of a rapid heartbeat can be shocked back to a normal rhythm using electrical current. This procedure is called electrical cardioversion. The underlying mechanism of cardioversion is based on the fact that these rhythms represent circular electrical currents that keep the heart muscle—or parts of it—twitching in an uncoordinated fashion. The electric shock stops the current from circling and allows the natural pacemaker (the sinus node) to take charge. Often, medications are given beforehand to assist in the procedure and protect the patient from the unpleasant effects of the shock.
Cardioversion can also be done with medications called anti-arrhythmics. These medications work by restoring normal sinus rhythm. Frequently, a patient must take these for a prolonged period of time. Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue and nausea.
If the sinus node malfunctions or stops working, an artificial pacemaker can be implanted to generate regular impulses. The devices have long-lasting power supplies, but they need to be checked periodically to make sure they are functioning properly. Pacemakers are implanted during a minor surgical procedure. A wire is attached to your heart either through a blood vessel or directly into the chest. The wire is also attached to the device. An incision is made, and the device is placed under your skin, usually near the collarbone.
These are implantable devices for people who have dangerous rhythm disturbances. They are automatic devices that detect dangerous rhythms and administer an electric shock to the heart if those rhythms occur. The power of the electrical shock depends on the heart rhythm abnormality. It may deliver low energy impulses that most of the time you won't be able to feel . It may also deliver an electrical shock to perform cardioversion which usually feels like a thump in the chest. In case the defibrillator is activated, the device delivers a strong electrical shock that is painful.
These devices have power sources that last a long time. Nevertheless, they should be checked occasionally to make sure they are still working. Your cardiologist will give you instructions on the care and maintenance of your pacemaker or defibrillator.
Contact your doctor if:
- The rhythm disturbance returns, and you don't think it was properly controlled
- You experience dizziness or fainting spells

The Christensens' new barn contains cattle working facilities, horse stalls, an office-vet room and a loading chute. It's a lot easier and safer to work cattle inside the facility than outside, says Dale Christensen, who operates the 2,000-head feedlot near Beresford, S.D., with his brothers, Doug and Don, and parents, Marlow and Donna.
You've got to see Melissa Arhart's video of how she and her husband, Andrew, work cattle.
Temple Grandin, Colorado State University animal scientist, offered some "do's and don'ts" to follow when handling livestock when she spoke to about 200 producers at a workshop at the 777 Ranch near Hermosa, S.D..
The 119 herds, consisting of 17,300 cows, in the North Dakota Farm Business Management Program generated an average loss of $12.85 per cow last year. The 25 highest-profit herds did considerably better than the average with a profit of $73.25 per cow. The lowest-profit group lost $185.14 per cow. The spread between the two groups was $258.39 per cow.
Calving season comes around twice a year at the Spickler Ranch near Glenfield, N.D. They calve 450 cows from March 15 to May 15 and 150 cows from Aug. 10 to Oct. 10.
According to Wabash County Sheriff Larry Striker, a lot more has changed in today's countryside than just the near-total removal of fences.
Drew Gaffney does more than preach to Nebraska producers about the value of Beef Quality Assurance. He pockets an extra $20 per head in value at market time by practicing BQA principles in his cow-calf and yearling operation.
Finding the maximum amount of distillers grains to include in a livestock ration without affecting animal performance, health or environment is the focus of new Iowa State University research. The researchers are working to safely increase feed use by cattle and poultry producers of the coproduct made during ethanol production. Dry distillers grains with solubles, or DDGS, is rich in protein, oil and fiber.
Rancher Watt Matthews Casey, DVM, of Shackelford County, Texas, turns 90 on Aug. 11. For 62 of those years, he has been with Casey Beefmasters, which he founded in 1948.
EZid, a division of Avid Identification Systems in Greeley, Colo., has announced the release of the EZid HDX Electronic Ear Tag for cattle.
Dan Specht is as concerned about making a profit as any other farmer. But the organic grassland farmer in northeast Iowa believes he can manage his pastures in a way that maximizes profit and still offers good habitat for birds and other wildlife.
While most people see cows when they look at a pasture, Iowa State University animal scientist Jim Russell sees the potential for improving cattle production, as well as a way to conserve soil and water.
Crossbred cattle have better fertility, feed efficiency, disease resistance and longevity than purebreds, many believe.
Multi-species grazing is an old idea becoming popular again, claims University of Idaho's Karen Launchbaugh, a rangeland ecology professor.
In the quest for the perfect bull, ranchers spent hours in spring pouring over expected progeny differences, or EPDs; birth, weaning and yearling weights; blood lines; and relatively new DNA information. Now that the summer breeding season is over, some wonder, "What data did cattle producers really use to select their bulls?"
This summer's American Society of Animal Science annual meeting had hundreds of research presentations on every animal subject known to humanity were reported. There was no shortage of controversy over what to feed beef cattle. At times, grass vs. grain controversies sparked heated debates.
Most spring-calving herds will be weaning calves within the next 60 days. That usually means about three nights of poor sleep for human and beast while cows and calves bawl in protest.
Eight years ago Steve Ollerich expanded his family's farming operation when he purchased a 3,000-head open feedlot near Elkton, S.D. As his daughter, Trish, 20, looks to return to the operation in the near future, Ollerich says he is searching for ways he can expand again, and improve efficiencies.
The selection of replacement heifers is one of the most critical decisions a beef producer must make. The selections a producer makes will influence the productivity of the beef herd for many years. The high cost of developing replacement heifers makes it vital to select heifers that have the highest probability of developing into productive cows. Producers should select potential heifers at weaning and then make a final decision at breeding time.
Jim Goggins of Springview knows the value of wet distillers grain with solubles, or WDGS, in his operation. WDGS has been long touted by cattle feeders, and now cow-calf producers like Jim and Shelly Goggins and their son, Coy, are also noticing the advantages, particularly when the cost is 75% to 85% of corn in the summer months.
Some cattle at higher elevations suffer respiratory problems and congestive heart failure. Affected animals become lethargic and often develop edema (swelling) in the neck and brisket.
The bull you're about to buy is half of the genetic makeup of your calf crop. But, do you know what you really want and need in a herd sire?
Producing high-quality choice and prime beef carcasses starts earlier than most producers realize. The days in a feedlot at the end of finishing are important; however, the number of muscle cells and fat cells are determined before the calf is born.
Mark Williams of Loomis believes minerals are overlooked on most cow-calf operations. Not his.
Keeping costs down and maintaining health of the cow herd is crucial during the winter months. Custom mixing cow minerals and feeding dry distillers grains or other corn byproducts in a winter ration pays big dividends.
Early spring bull sales are just around the corner. Selecting the right bull is one of the biggest success factors for a beef operation — especially now with high cattle prices, high feed prices and the real prospect of a beef shortage.
Think back a few years. If someone had predicted that fed-cattle prices would pass $1 a pound, that the national cow herd would keep shrinking despite feeder prices being more than $1.25 a pound and that we'd still be facing beef shortages, you'd think they were "short a few bricks."
Good management has often been called "doing the usual things unusually well." So, consider these five common-sense approaches as you deal with the coming "sticker shock" in feed prices.
No, we're not talking about those leather leg protectors! CHAPS stands for Cow Herd Appraisal Performance System, a state-of-the-art beef production record system designed to provide vital information about your beef managerial decisions and herd performance.
The motivation for backgrounding beef calves is usually to add some additional value to the calf beyond that of the weaning value. In early September, 550-pound steer calves were selling for $125 per hundredweight in this geographic area. However, with the recent increases in the price of corn, it may now be $10 per cwt. less.
Calf herd uniformity goes back to the calving season, which goes back to the breeding season, which goes back to taking the bull out sooner. The longer the bull is left with the cows, the longer the calving season.
The Dickinson Research Extension Center recently decreased the center's bull population. The average bull age at the center at turnout has been 3 years. Seldom would a bull more than 5 years of age be turned out to breed.
Beef producers who maintain information and performance records have one notable advantage over those who don't, says Kris Ringwall, North Dakota State University Extension beef specialist, Dickinson.
The Dickinson Research Extension Center utilizes many bulls and always evaluates bulls at the time of purchase and periodically throughout their life span. Perhaps the most challenging evaluation is to ask if the bulls meet the current objectives of the breeding program or the expected market for the calves.
Gary Dvoracek and his sons, of Lake Andes, S.D., built a new beef feedlot this past summer.
Randy Blach, CEO of CattleFax, Centennial, Colo., delivered a message of optimism to Missouri beef producers. The beef industry economist shared his latest outlook on the state of the U.S. beef industry at the 2010 Missouri Cattlemen's Association meeting in Columbia.
Don't tell cow-calf producers that February is a short month. February can stretch into weeks of misery, worry and calving-night thoughts of "Why me, Lord?"
It's said you should never stop learning, and now one University of Missouri graduate student is delivering knowledge into the hands of beef cattle producers everywhere.
March is a month of forage anticipation. Even late "spring" calving is wrapping up. Lactating mama cows need the best nutrition of their reproductive cycle. And, if hay supply is to become sparse or run out, this is the month to turn out to pastures.
Pictures from days gone by of cattle cooling off in a creek or shallow pond make a pleasing scene, but the image violates a major concept of conservationists. If you want to protect all natural resources, including streams, you need to keep animals out of the creek or stream.
Boom-bust weather, that's Texas — from bitter winter chills to unbearably hot, dry summers.
Most people can make money in the cattle business when times are good and rain is frequent, but how do they manage in extremely hot and dry conditions so typical to West Texas summers?
We have a cow-calf operation and are interested in starting to include our daughter and son-in-law. What would be a fair percent of the calf crop to compensate them if we provide pasture and feed? They would just check the cattle when we are gone. Another option: What would be a fair percent if we take our cows and calves to their farm, and they provide all feed and labor?
Replacing an open feedlot with a more environmentally friendly, deep-bedded total containment building is paying dividends for Shelby County cattleman Clint Sonderman. His new 20,000-square-foot facility totally eliminates manure runoff, allows for better manure utilization and is resulting in healthier, more productive cattle.
Hot-iron branding is the oldest form of livestock identification and proof of ownership. But freeze branding, a technique developed at Washington State University in 1966, offers a more humane alternative.
Economic downturn and the Internet are helping boost the number of cattle thefts in Oregon, says Rodger Huffman, state brand inspector with the Oregon Department of Agriculture's Animal Health and Identification Division.
Breeding season for the 2012 spring calving season will soon be in full swing. Cows calving in winter and early spring should be coming into heat from April through July.
No matter what breed, type or color of cattle you raise, there's no escaping the fact that the Certified Angus Beef program changed how all beef cattle are promoted and marketed. As with most paradigm-changing events, it began with the strong convictions of a few individuals.
Joel "Jay" Reach loves to promote his black cattle — at Reach Simmental. "They bring a $50- to $100-per-head premium any day at auction, and all the way to the meat counter."
If you have been listening at all during coffee time at the local café, you already know that times are good for cattle producers. The talk of 80-cent cull cows, 550-pound heifers selling for more than $800, and 600-pound steer calves bringing more than $1,000 per head has locals choking over their morning coffee and donuts.
Before we started managed grazing on our farm, I thought mob grazing was when the raccoons spent a night ruining our sweet corn patch. Since then, I've been learning from a lot of farmers and ranchers who are using a mob of cows — up to 1 million pounds of beef per acre in close quarters for very short periods of time — to utilize forages in the most efficient way possible.
Lawrence area farmer and rancher Zach Herz has built a cattle finishing barn that could be the first in a beef feeding revolution. The bedded manure-pack barn is one of the first in the state, but if more farmers and ranchers build similar structures, beef feeding could move from the feedlot to the farm.
Every stockman wants a better cowherd. Artificial insemination is a good tool for some ranchers to get there.
Pregnancy-testing cows and heifers in the fall can help you operate more efficiently, says Chandy Olson, a St. Onge, S.D.,veterinarian.
The sale and movement of cattle due to extreme weather conditions nationwide could lead to livestock health problems not normally seen in the Dakotas, warns Charlie Stoltenow North Dakota State University Extension Service veterinarian.
Rancher Dave Hamilton and his father, Reed, enjoy hunting deer, and they possess the deer population on their Sandhills ranch north of Thedford to accommodate that recreational pursuit.
Nebraska's Livestock Friendly County program is in its eighth year of operation, but so far just 14 of 93 counties have received the designation. While that figures out to be just 15% of Nebraska counties, Steve Martin, Nebraska Department of Agriculture ag promotion coordinator, says the program is "alive and kicking."
Jim Gerrish, with American Grazing Services in Idaho, helps ranchers maximize pasture resources with planned grazing, matching cattle to feed resources to take advantage of what their ranch produces. Timing calving so peak lactation coincides with peak grass production helps.
Central Wyoming agricultural producer Gordon Medow was pondering whether he should sell his mother cows so he could focus on growing crops.
Glenn Shewmaker, University of Idaho Extension forage specialist, says you can expect 5% to 25% weathering loss in standing grasses (and more for alfalfa) over winter, and snow may mash down standing forage. It's harder for cows to dig down and eat it than for them to find windrows under snow.
Monoslope barns are a profitable way to feed beef cattle, according to one South Dakota beef producer.
If you hope to capture the most value from your calf crop this year, you need to follow a carefully planned marketing strategy, says Carl Dahlen, North Dakota State University Extension Service beef cattle specialist.
If you plan to retain ownership of calves, here are some questions to ask the custom feeder.
Monty and Bobbi Jo Williams are getting a start in ranching in an interesting way.
When Mark Hollenbeck, Edgemont, S.D., assessed the resources available to him for producing beef on his southwestern South Dakota Sunrise Ranch, he knew raising grain-fed beef was not an option. His land would not produce grain.
Midland, S.D., rancher TJ Gabriel is gearing up for the calving season. As part of the preparation, he's making sure he has a few key supplies on hand, including duct tape.
Ranchers who have a few decades of experience under their belts can provide some of the most practical management tips you'll ever learn. Lavern and Sue Koch of New Underwood, S.D., are one such pair.
Northeast Iowa farmers Luther and Quentin Schutte have more time on their hands now for family, friends and fun. The father-son duo — in the business of fattening up beef cattle and Holstein steers — recently consolidated four open feedlots into one large steel-roofed total containment barn, saving them a few hours a day in commuting and work time.
"There's going to be a lot more volatility going forward than there has been in the past," predicted Brett Crosby of the Wyoming-based consulting firm Custom Ag Solutions. Crosby spoke on managing price risk in a volatile market during the South Dakota Cattlemen's Annual Convention in Pierre.
To date, trichomoniasis has not been found in Illinois. Still, that doesn't mean beef producers aren't stressing about the possibility of it crossing state lines.
Nebraska is known as the Cornhusker state for good reason. But the state also boasts one of the nation's most prolific ethanol production industries with a capacity of 2 billon gallons, or 13% of the nation's overall ethanol production capacity — second only to Iowa.
Doug Bachand, Edgemont, S.D., has found a way to lock in higher prices for his calves when he sells them in the fall. For the past two years, Bachand has used Livestock Risk Protection, or LRP, insurance — a program available for feeder cattle and fed cattle that allows producers to limit downside price risk while still being able to take advantage of higher prices.
We recently reviewed the analysis of 367 beef enterprises enrolled in the North Dakota Farm Business Management Education program to identify factors affecting herd profitability for beef cows. The differences between the 40% most profitable and 40% least profitable groups are interesting.
Dave Davidson knows how important it is to get the right bull power in his herd. For the Center rancher, wading through mounds of data on bulls and selecting the right bulls is crucial.
You may have more choices than you think in how you graze your land. Changes in technology for flexible fencing and watering systems make concentrated, high-density rotational grazing with long rest periods for the pasture or forage more attractive now. And there are more benefits for livestock owners who develop a successful grazing system and commit to closely managing and moving their animals.
Can rotational grazing practices really restore life to eroded, weedy rangeland?
Randy, Kevin and Larry Schultz are back in control of their cattle enterprise.
Use the "Lazy L" principle to help you decide which cows to cull going into a drought, advises Kris Ringwall, North Dakota State University Extension livestock specialist, Dickinson, N.D.
Perhaps a producer could forgo carcass evaluations, but that would be a big mistake. All the money that comes into the beef industry ultimately comes from the product hanging on the rail. For all practical purposes, cattle are not kept as pets, and there is no income stream from beef cattle other than beef and beef byproducts.
There are several things you can try to get late-calving cows rebreeding sooner, says Jim Kranz, South Dakota State University Extension cow-calf specialist at Mitchell, S.D., and George Perry, SDSU beef reproduction specialist, Brookings, S.D.
Fred Provenza used to wonder as he watched cattle, sheep, goats, deer and elk graze: Why do the animals choose the foods they eat? Is it taste? Nutrition? Possibly they avoid the toxins they know? Could it be a combination of these factors?
About 30 Iowa beef producers found out just how bad the drought is this summer. The 2012 Iowa Beef Tour traveled through parts of Missouri and Illinois July 16-18, where dried up fields and pastures have farmers in a bigger pinch than those in Iowa.
In drought or abnormally dry weather conditions, cattle producers need to look at numerous management practices to help stretch their feed supply and maintain performance and reproduction in the cow herd. Iowa State University Extension beef specialist Denise Schwab offers a few strategies that may help.
This summer has been hot, and in some pastures, like Scott McGregor's near Nashua in northeast Iowa, there is a lack of regrowth in grazing land for his 130 head of Angus cattle. McGregor and other Iowa Cattlemen's Association members voiced concerns about the drought and a number of other issues at the ICA Summer Policy meeting in Ames. "The high temperatures swung us for a loop," he said.
With the rising popularity of feeding cattle in buildings as opposed to open feedlots, and the challenge of raising cattle, two new publications are available from Midwest Plan Service. They are "Cattle Feeding Buildings in the Midwest" and "Cow-Calf Production in the U.S. Corn Belt."
Tim Shelton, a well-known farmer in Dry Fork, Va., grows tobacco and grain, and raises cattle.
Three Nebraska cattle producers who have adopted winter grazing programs for their operations are realizing benefits from the practice.
Ranchers are typically an ingenious lot, doing what they can to make ends meet.
In the mid-to-late 1980s, the beef industry paid scant attention to the genetic influence of cows and heifers on the overall performance of a cattle herd. That fact didn't escape the attention of Patsy Houghton, then a Kansas State University beef cattle Extension specialist. Her focus on heifers intensified when KSU implemented a cow-calf student project designed to help students learn the artificial insemination process.
Drought increases many feed safety and harvest challenges, says J.W. Schroeder, North Dakota State University Extension dairy specialist.
//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
In recognition of their excellent forage production and management skills, Jerry and Barb Braun of New Effington, S.D., received the Edmunds and McPherson County Natural Resources Conservation Service 2011 Excellence in Range Management Award.
Times are changing for beef producers. Although genetic statistics like expected progeny differences, or EPDs, are becoming more widely used, many still see the value in live evaluations. In the rolling hills of southwest Iowa's cow-calf country, young beef producers gathered recently at Anita Vet Clinic's new facility to examine Randy Dreher's bulls. It was a meeting of the Beginning and Young Livestock Producer Success Network.
The biggest mistake purebred and commercial producers make when buying bulls is not having the bull registrations transferred to their name.
Casey and Gina Maher, of Maher Angus Ranch, Morristown, S.D., recently upgraded and expanded their 300-head feedlot to handle 999 head of cattle.
Quiet. That's how cattleman Terry Hedeman wants it when he's processing cattle. The Dade County farmer has come to learn over the years that whooping and hollering just doesn't work.
It would be nice to have hard-and-fast rules a management-intensive grazer could follow day after day, season after season. After more than 25 years of being a grass farmer, though, Bob Salmon will tell you it just doesn't work that way.
On warm winter days in late January and February, a sweet, honey-like, almost spicy scent drifts on gentle breezes in some gardens and woodlands. True spring is a couple of months away, but follow the scent and find an enchanting small tree in full bloom: Ozark witch hazel.
Opportunity. That's what young farmers Dustin and Scynthia Schnake found five years ago when they entered a lease agreement with neighbors Clif and Alice Harrington. The arrangement has proven fruitful for both parties — providing the Schnakes room for expansion and the Harringtons a chance to scale back their operation.

Tre Smith ran for two touchdowns, passed for another and made quite the adventure out of a 95-yard punt return for a score, and Class 3A's third-ranked team rolled over Cleveland 62-20 in Friday's Region 5 wrapper for both teams on Michael E. Dixon Field.
Devin Harris added a team-high 84 rushing yards and two scores, a 44-yard run and a 70-yard kickoff return, as Saks (9-0) finished 7-0 in region play.
The Wildcats' performance against Cleveland (5-4, 3-4) came a week after they beat Calhoun County rival and previously unbeaten power Piedmont 40-15 to clinch the region title.
"When you play in huge games like last week, that's the number one thing as a coach," Saks coach Jonathan Miller said. "You're looking for a letdown.
"We played so good last week and put so much into that game, but tell you what: We came out firing on all cylinders, and that's exactly what we asked them to do this week."
Saks gained 466 total yards to Cleveland's 283, much of which came after Saks built a 42-6 lead by halftime. The Wildcats held a 55-6 lead in the fourth quarter.
"I like our team, because every practice we come out to get better and work hard," Smith said. "There's no slowing down."
Certainly not for Smith, whom Cleveland coach Gerald Gilliland called "the best player in our region."
He completed 4 of 8 passes for 94 yards, including a 34-yard TD pass to Demetrius Powell in the second quarter. Smith also rushed for 71 yards, including TD runs of 51 and 7 yards.
The game's most exciting play came when Smith fielded a rolling punt at Saks' 5-yard line in the second quarter. He ran to his left, turned back right near his own goal line, then nearly reached the opposite sideline before turning up field.
After running nearly 70 yards from side to side, covering the distance between the "Gs" that mark the goal line, he turned up field and finished off the 95-yard punt return.
"I just felt like I had the whole team on one side, so, if I just break one tackle, I'm gone," he said.
"When I saw that open field and saw one defender, I knew I was gone."
Smith's decision to field a punt that clearly would have rolled into the end zone for a touchback, followed by the happy result, left Miller conflicted.
Miller said he would prefer Smith let the ball roll into the end zone "most of the time" but couldn't help a grin.
"I didn't see exactly where he was when he caught it," Miller said. "But any time he touches the ball, it's usually OK with me. But he's also got to make smart decisions, too.
"It's funny, though, once he made it out of the end zone and got to about the 5, on the headset, I said, 'He's gone.'"
Lots of Wildcats got in on the fun. They had 12 total ball carriers, with Calvin Figeuroa and Raekwon Blake adding touchdown runs of 2 and 4 yards, respectively. Powell added another score when he recovered a Saks fumble in the end zone.
Cleveland, meanwhile, got 142 yards rushing and two scores from running back Trevor Yates, and quarterback Peyton Gilliland scored on a 1-yard sneak.
Saks will close out the regular season in a non-region game against Calhoun County rival Jacksonville next week. The Wildcats will look to finish off their first unbeaten regular season since 1971 and first unbeaten and untied regular season since 1968.
"I like where we are as a team," Miller said. "We can't lose sight of trying to get better each and every day at practice.
"We're looking to make a run in the playoffs. There's no doubt about that, but 3A North is extremely tough. There are a lot of good teams in 3A North, so that's the scary part, but I also like our team a lot."

SAN DIEGO — There have been rumors down here that the Chargers might be interested in UCLA's Jim Mora as a replacement for Coach Norv Turner.
If the Holiday Bowl was an audition, Mora could not have done more to prove himself the ideal choice to be the next Chargers' head coach.
Like the Chargers do so often, the Bruins played flat and let their fans down, losing 49-26.
TIMELINE: College football 2012-13 bowl schedule
And in doing so, Mora also found a way to further irritate the faithful with the kind of play-calling that often leaves Turner looking so befuddled on the sideline.
Mora called for a field goal, his team down 35-7 and parked at the Baylor 13-yard line shortly before the half. It's the sort of thing an NFL coach would do, and to heck with disgruntled fans.
But it's nothing, as a tough-talking Mora has preached since arriving at UCLA, the Bruins supposedly not about to be held back by anyone.
So why wimp out now?
How do you not let it all ride in a bowl game, against an opponent that has been treated like a welcome mat while standing before its own end zone?
This was a Baylor team ranked 119th on defense, and they only rank 120 teams. It's a Baylor team so dreadful on defense it's worse than USC. That's how bad it is.
And yet Baylor manhandled the Bruins as if that was Philip Rivers playing quarterback and Ryan Mathews running at Qualcomm Stadium.
This was the UCLA of old, and yet just a few days ago a Los Angeles Daily News columnist was writing under the headline: "Reward Jim Mora Immediately for UCLA's Special Season."
The Daily News columnist was worried the Goofs in San Diego were going to steal Mora, but how special can a season be if it ends with three-straight whiffs?
After three straight defeats is UCLA on the rise, as some suggest, or have they been exposed as frauds?
Here we have Mora being canonized after 13 games, but anyone dealing in reality, which leaves out Bruins' fans, knows their schedule was good for at least nine wins.
OK, maybe eight if Rick Neuheisel was coaching.
UCLA played six outright crummy teams: Rice, Houston, Utah, California, Colorado and Washington State.
Mora's troops went 5-1 against teams with a combined record of 23-49.
They went 4-4 against everyone else.

The family of Lane Goodwin held back tears today on the floor of the House of Representatives.
Friday's legislative session was dedicated in Lane's honor.
His mom Angie says nearly everyone had heard of Lane's journey and the legislators also learned about Lane's newly formed foundation.
Lane Goodwin brought renewed awareness to childhood cancer through his "thumps-up" campaign last fall and died in October at the age of 13.

A Sense of Jazz Community in Ballard, WA
" On the subject of influential drummers, Blade declared his admiration for Elvin Jones "
Saturday, November 15, 2003
Seattle, WA
Boats, beer, fish—better add jazz to the list.
For generations, Ballard, WA has been famous for harboring fishing vessels, numerous blue-collar taverns frequented by fishermen, and lutefisk—a pickled fish recipe preferred by Scandinavians who settled here nearly a century ago. Now, following a full day of jazz clinics, concerts and club gigs, this salty Seattle neighborhood is poised to add America's classical music to its notorious local identity.
On Saturday, November 15, the first Ballard Jazz Festival was enthusiastically received by over 1,200 locals who attended afternoon, evening and late-night festival events.
Drummer extraordinaire Brian Blade and his seven-piece Fellowship band delivered a 45-minute, highlight-filled set on the festival's mainstage, performing "Crooked Creek," "Patron Saint of Girls" and "Variations of a Bloodline" among other tunes. Melvin Butler on tenor and soprano sax, and Myron Walden on alto led a two-horn attack for this a rare appearance by the Fellowship.
The unflappable vocalist Nancy King and piano accompanist Steve Christofferson won new admirers for their genuine, heart-felt interpretations of "Mountain Greenery," "Salt Lake City Blues" and "Straight Into Your Heart." The duo's complex, intervallic, vocal/piano unison on Christofferson's "Out of Town" reaped rewards worthy of the tune's many musical risks.
A soft-spoken, hard-judging Vincent Herring publicly challenged the New Stories trio to play his charts, and the hometown favorites did better that just keep up with the veteran alto saxophonist from New York City. Under a suspicious gaze and discerning ear, Marc Seales, Doug Miller and John Bishop provoked a permanent grin from Herring following a round of solos on "Timothy." Grins turned to gapes on "Sweet and Lovely" as Miller's acoustic bass solo silenced the room with listening and brought down the house with cheers.
Three giant video screens—listing festival sponsors—served as backdrop to a spacious mainstage inside the brand new 1,000-seat Mars Hill Church performance hall. Jim Wilke, the venerable voice of Seattle jazz, presided over the festival's evening concerts as master of ceremonies.
Earlier in the day, Blade, King, Herring, along with guitarists Kurt Rosenwinkel and John Stowell conducted music clinics and answered questions by any and all bold enough to ask about their art. Student musicians from area high schoolS performed. Dozens of jazz photographs were on view and for sale. And, later that night, the sound of jazz flooded historic Ballard Avenue as festival-goers relaxed and refueled in half a dozen pubs and participating Ballard Jazz Walk venues.
Origin Records's growing catalog of 50+ recording artists supplied Jazz Walk entertainment: Upper Left trio played Bad Albert's Tap and Grill; Rich Cole/Bill Anschell quartet filled the Old Town Ale House; Matt Jorgensen+451 packed Conor Byrne Pub (setting a new record for beer sales); Ben Thomas's group played Bop Street Records; while Scenes with Jeff Johnson and John Stowell held forth at the Lock and Keel Tavern.
But the most interesting Jazz Walk experience had to have been the Jay Thomas/Tom Marriott quintet at the Olympic Athletic Club. More comfortable with free weights and saunas then downbeats and codas, the athletic club staff had set up a dozen or so chairs in the gym in preparation for a never-before encountered Ballard jazz audience. They needed more chairs. At 11pm, the second set had begun with people camped out on the gym floor, bouncing to the beat of Thomas on tenor, Marriott on trumpet, John Hansen at the keyboard, Russ Botton on bass, and an unknown but highly entertaining drummer pressed up into a corner of the basketball court.
In all, Ballard Jazz Festival events combined to create a glowing sense of pride in a community aflutter with first-time festival success stories—a sense of pride not lost on the out-of-towners. Blade, King, Herring and Co. openly praised festival presenters John Bishop and Matt Jorgensen of Origin Records and the Ballard Chamber of Commerce.
Perhaps the most memorable expression of community spirit occurred as Brian Blade was wrapping-up the question-and-answer portion of his afternoon drum clinic for the benefit of few hundred curious onlookers. On the subject of influential drummers, Blade declared his admiration for Elvin Jones's elliptical, shifting-circle, forward-moving time-feel. On tuning, he likes his drums tuned low and undampened, so that they ring. On composition, instead of focusing on theory, he tries to let the music tell a story. New Orleans music he described as "subterranean," explaining: "There's so much weight in the groups."
Moments later, acknowledging Blade's request, Seattle-resident and internationally-known guitar guru Bill Frisell joined his friend on stage for an impromptu rendition of "All Blues." The resulting feast for the ears featured two of the most admired jazz musicians on the planet. Yet, since Brian was our teacher, and Bill a student like the rest of us that afternoon, the mood of the audience and these two great musicians was low-key and neighborly, rather than star-struck. A friendly little jam session was all.
