(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that's happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.)
Brad Paisley thinks his wife, Kimberly Williams Paisley, would describe him as a workaholic. He told Parade magazine she might say that because of the way he struggles a little with that ever-elusive balance in life. "It is tough and frustrating sometimes. When you're a creative person, there are just times when you're not listening," he admitted. "You know, I could be looking right at you and thinking about something else." But it sounds like he's trying. He told the magazine that when he does have a day off, he and his sons play on the bulldozers at home, go to the zoo or watch Battlestar Galactica. As for his wife's current gig, playing home wrecker Peggy Kenter on ABC's Nashville, Paisley is not a fan because of how real the drama is. "I can't watch it. It is really good, but it's disturbing to me, too close to what I do. It's like if I was in the CIA, I don't know if I'd watch Homeland," he said. "But I'm not, so I do."

The week leading into the Thanksgiving holiday started with a rash of car burglaries in South Walton. On Nov. 18 and 19, more than 10 vehicles were ransacked by suspects. Victims in the neighborhoods along Montego Avenue, Santa Clara Street and North Andalusia found their vehicles had been subject to the criminal mischief and burglary that occurred in the late evening to early morning hours. Most victims told deputies there was nothing missing from their vehicles that they could see. There were, however, a few who left items in their vehicles such as cameras and gaming equipment. Some vehicles were unlocked or windows were left down while a few car windows were broken to gain access.
The Walton County Sheriff�s Office reminds citizens and visitors to take all valuables out of their vehicles, lock their doors and roll up all windows. Don't leave any sign that there might be valuables out of sight in your vehicle, such as docking stations or connector cables. While parking vehicles at home, pull up into garages if possible. If parking a vehicle outside, install motion senor lighting. Auto-burglars prefer breaking into cars where they will not observed and choose their targets accordingly. If you have a car alarm, set it and use it. It can be an effective deterrent to an auto-burglar, who most often chooses the easiest target. If burglars have two vehicles to choose from (one with an alarm and one without) they will likely burglarize the one without that is unless you've left out valuables they can�t resist.
Remembering tips such as these will help cut down on thieves stealing not only personal belongings and gifts but holiday cheer.

How cool are these Fielder's Choice wallets?! They are made from old baseball gloves. Here is the super dumb thing. This was given to my husband already, by someone else, so it is no longer on the gift giving table for me. Boo. But I wanted to share them with you as Father's Day is right around the corner. Fielder's Choice makes great gift ideas for sports fans in your life.
This is not an intricate wallet with slots to hold 15 cards, etc. This is a simple pouch design with a flap closure. It's pretty straight forward and simple and would totally appeal to the unfussy guy in your life. And the story is cool. These are hand cut and sewn and made in the USA. To my family, nothing is more American than baseball. And while I am not a fan of the sport itself (I like to call it, The Devil's Game), I totally get the nostalgia, the history and the spirit of it.
Repurposing the old gloves not only makes use of vintage materials but also adds a new chapter to the story of where that glove has been. How cool to be using something that held many memories for someone else at one time. And Fielder's Choice doesn't only sell wallets. They sell really great hats, keychains and simple tees with their freaking awesome logo. I love supporting cool companies like this who are passionate about what they do AND put out a cool product. So go do some Father's Day shopping and remember them come birthday and Christmas time.
Buy from Fielder's Choice Goods here. And follow them on Facebook, twitter, and instagram (well, have your husband follow them on instagram – our girly eyes probably won't love their pictures. There aren't any peonies or other pretty flowers, but their aesthetic is really cool).

Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), international organization established as the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) in 1973, during the cold war, to promote East-West cooperation. Headquarters are in Prague, Czech Republic. The CSCE's 1975 meeting in Helsinki, Finland, ratified the acts commonly known as the Helsinki Accords, which were signed by every European nation (except Albania, which did so later) and the United States and Canada. The OSCE is responsible for reviewing the implementation of those accords. Since the end of the cold war, it has also aimed to foster peace, prosperity, and justice in Europe. There are now 56 OSCE members, including all European nations, all former republics of the Soviet Union, and the United States and Canada.
The Helsinki Accords recognized the post–World War II European border arrangements as inviolable, subject to change only by peaceful means and by agreement, and the signers agreed to respect the human rights and civic freedoms of their citizens, as well as to undertake various forms of international cooperation. Although the nonbinding accords did not have treaty status, they were the first international agreement signed by the Soviet Union to mention the rights of free speech and travel. The human-rights provisions had a significant role in galvanizing Soviet and other Eastern European dissidents in the late 1970s, who organized committees to monitor compliance with the Helsinki Accords. Subsequent conferences have been held in various European cities. At the 1990 Paris summit, leaders of the member nations signed a declaration respecting the territorial integrity of Europe, an act that signaled the end of the cold war; limitations were also placed on the size of conventional forces in Europe. An additional agreement in 1992 and a revised treaty in 1999 (still unratified) placed further limitations on conventional forces.

We have always enjoyed raw honey in small amounts,. Unlike all the other sweeteners on the site, honey has a relatively high glycemic index, so it is not suitable for people who are on low-sugar diets. We enjoy it in small amounts - a teaspoon spread on a flax cracker, or a couple of tablespoons in a batch of chocolate.
This chestnut honey is:
- not pasteurised
- not ultra filtered (which removes the pollen).
- not a blend of different honeys from different countries (which almost all supermarket honey is, even when it is organic).
- produced by bees that aren't given antibiotics.
- produced by bees that are fed honey not sugar in the winter.
- from an environment with very low pollution levels.
At this time of year raw honey can crystallise quite quickly.
This is a process that many people aren't familiar with - often because they have previously bought honey in a place that is a lot warmer than the UK or because they have got it from a mainstream supermarket. A warm climate delays crystallisation.
Crystallisation doesn't tend to happen to supermarket honey because it has usually been pasteurised and fine filtered.
Pasteurisation delays the crystallisation for a year or more - you see heating honey breaks down the natural crystals in the honey so they don't grow. (More than this pasteurisation damages the antibacterial properties of the honey - and generally degrades the flavour and properties of the honey.
There is something else that the supermarkets do that drastically delays the setting process - they put put it through very fine filters, which removes the good bits - a lot of the pollen, propolis, beeswax and sometimes bits of royal jelly. These bits help to 'seed' the honey - it starts setting around the bits.
So I hope you can see that raw honey is completely different to processed honey. Unfortunately what the mass producers do completely changes the honey. The end result is a bland substance that doesn't resemble the fine living liquid that the bees make.
So if your honey starts to solidify (or has solidified) it's not something to worry about - in fact it is a sign that your honey is raw.
However, if you would prefer it liquid do this:
Put it on a radiator and drape a tea towel over the jar(s).
Leave it overnight. If it's not liquid by morning then leave it a little longer.
You might think that the heat from this process will damage the honey - the important thing is that you don't heat the honey beyond 40 degrees (which is how hot the hive can get in the summer when the bees are at work evaporating moisture to thicken the honey).
If the radiators are very hot then put something like a book under the jars and then drape a tea towel over the jars.
The book will protect the honey from direct heat above 40 degrees from the radiator and the tea towel will ensure that hot air can circulate around the honey helping to liquefy it.

Let me tell you how we started selling raw honey
An obsession with raw honey grew from a life changing discovery after visiting the Spanish Pyrenees during a family holiday in about 1997 or 1998.
It had been a very hot summer, really really hot. We were roasting in the south west of France and saw on the map a lake 'just over the border' in Spain. So we decided to head for it for a refreshing swim.
I don't think we ever reached the lake because our 'just over the border' was about 80 miles along windy mountain roads. However, we spent the next week camping the Pyrenees, in an incredibly wild area where it really did seem like time had stopped. This was the Spain of old, not the fast developing Spain of the late 90s boom.
On the way back to France we stopped at a little border town, Bielsa, high in the mountains to pick up some gifts. It was here that we discovered Ramon's honey.
There was about four shelves stacked with this honey in big one kilo jars. And there were lots of varieties I had never heard of - like Oak and Orange.
I don't think we opened any of the jars until we got back to England. When we did, I was flabbergasted by the strength of the flavour and the thick consistency.
This was unlike anything we had ever tried before. There was no comparison with the supermarket honey we had been eating before.
This really was a moment of revelation - the discovery of proper honey.
From then on the trips to the Spanish Pyrenees became an annual event for us. Always we would stop at the shop in Bielsa to buy larger and larger amounts of Ramon's amazing honey..
We couldn't meet the demand from friends and family - this alerted us to the fact that we might be onto something really exceptional.
So one year we decided we would try and go and see Ramon and ask him if he could sell wholesale honey to us.
That proved difficult. He didn't have a web site and he didn't seem to answer the phone. We had bought ferry tickets and were close to our leaving day but still we hadn't been able to get any response from him.
Eventually the night before we were due to get the ferry to France he returned our call. He said he would be pleased if we visited him.
I suppose we were expecting a little old man dressed in a beekeeper's suit, but as we were to find, Ramon looked somewhat different. Quite a hip looking dude, but not in the least bit pretentious and very very earnest about his honey.
Finding Ramon's house was a mission and a half. He lived a two hour drive from the Pyrenees. But actually finding his house proved very difficult - you have to remember that this was in the days before satnav. In the end he came out to try and find us as were completely lost.
So we got to meet Ramon, his wife Begona and their three sons Jonathon, Mario and Alessandro. They were in involved in running the family's honey business and running a small holding. They really were living the self-sufficient life, although it was a way of life for them, not a fad.
Begona had prepared a feast for us and as it was a cold day we sat in front of a roaring fire whilst Ramon told us about his philosphy of beekeeping and we tried different types of honey on freshly buttered baguettes.
What we heard was pleasing and reassuring. Ramon was very committed to raw honey and to a traditional style of beekeeping.
He told us that he never pasteurises his honey because that would destroy the health properties and how it is only run through a coarse filter so that pollen remains in the honey (which gives it health benefits)..
He said he wanted to produce 'a honey, like the honey of old'. That he doesn't give his bees antibiotics, or any chemical medicines.
Ramon doesn't add anything to his honey or take anything away.
So that evening we loaded up my van with boxes of Ramon's honey and began the journey back to England. That was the beginning of The Raw Honey Shop.
Later, we met an organic beekeeper called Antonio. His hives are based in the mountain ranges to the north of Madrid. His honey is raw and certified organic. Antonio is the fourth generation in his family to keep bees for honey.
There are a few other beekeepers we get honey from now. Luisa and Mario live in Asturias in the north-west of Spain - bear country. They produce a limited range of raw organic honeys that are creamed. Bernard produces raw organic Manuka in South Island, New Zealand.
We spend a lot of time researching the honey. We go to see the hives for all the different floral varieties of honey we supply and witness the honey extraction process. As well as this we ensure that the supplier has all the required documentation.

Seegene licenses DPO and TOCE technologies to DuPont for food safety testing
With this agreement, Seegene enters into the multi-billion dollar food safety testing market
Singapore: Korean company Seegene, a leading developer of multiplex molecular technologies and multiplex molecular diagnostic tests, has entered into a licensing agreement with Dupont Nutrition & Health. This agreement marks the extension of Seegene's core molecular technologies into the multi-billion dollar food safety testing market.
Specific terms of the licensing agreement have not been disclosed. However, the agreement covers the utilization of Seegene's novel DPO and TOCE technologies in highly multiplexed real-time PCR assays for the Dupont BAX System.
"Our agreement with DuPont opens a significant new market opportunity for our portfolio of multiplex molecular technologies," said Dr Jong-Yoon Chun, founder, CTO and CEO of Seegene. "Leveraging our multiplex molecular technologies, food safety testing can change the current approach of 'one test, one pathogen', to a 'one test, many pathogens' testing paradigm. This can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of food safety testing, and help reduce the prevalence of food-borne illness."
According to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, food-borne illnesses each year in the US alone affect 48 million people.

New Line Cinema has finally hired a new director for its long-gestating movie adaptation of Brian K. Vaughn's fabulous Vertigo comic Y: The Last Man. The bad news? The director has only professionally directed commercials. The good news? This particular commercial director is Dan Trachtenberg, who also made that fabulous Portal fan flick "No Escape." That's quite a leap, but still, "No Escape" is well-made enough (and authetic to its source material) that's I'm more than willing to give Trachtenberg the benefit of the doubt here. Assuming, you know, the movie actually gets made this time.

A body has been recovered by search teams involved in the hunt for missing Irish vet Catherine Gowing.
Ms Gowing, 37, was last seen on the evening of Friday October 12 at a supermarket near her home in New Brighton, Flintshire, north Wales.
A 46-year old man from Gynnedd, north Wales, has since been charged with her murder.
A spokesman for North Wales Police said: "Following information received by members of the public, recent searches have focused on fields in Manor Road, Sealand. Yesterday search team officers discovered human remains in a shallow pool within the field known locally as the Lum.
"At this time, those remains have yet to be formally identified as this will require medical as well as forensic examination. A post-mortem is planned for later today.
"At this time we are not able to comment further. However, Catherine Gowing's family have been informed of this distressing development and clearly our thoughts are with them at this very difficult time.
"I would ask that they be allowed privacy to come to terms with this news."
Ms Gowing, who is originally from Clonlee, Co Offaly, had worked at Evans Veterinary Practice in Mold for the last 18 months.
She was described by her sister Emma as a "beautiful person".
Detective Chief Inspector Mark Pierce said his investigation team continues to urge potential witnesses to come forward.
He said: "This development came about as the result of information from the local community, for which I am very grateful.
"However, I am once again asking for their assistance. The search for evidence relating to Catherine's disappearance continues and I am very eager to hear of any sightings of her Irish-registered Renault Clio 00D 99970 and Sharp's black Volvo S40 AG58 JHE since Friday October 12 and particularly in the Sealand area.
"In fact, I would like to hear from anyone who saw any suspicious activity in fields in Manor Road, Sealand, to contact police on 101."
Clive Sharp, 46, of no fixed address, has been charged with murder and was remanded in custody until January 7 when he is due to enter his plea.

The rear seats in Prius v offer an array of seating and cargo configurations. The plush upholstery and extensive rear-seat leg room will make passengers in back feel like top priority. The seats not only slide forward and backward, but also recline for optimal comfort.
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) helps protect the smaller members of your family. LATCH includes low-mounted anchors and tethers on each outboard rear seat.
The available Pre-Collision System (PCS) on Prius v uses radar to help determine if a frontal collision is unavoidable, and automatically applies the brakes and retracts the front seatbelts to help prepare for it

From the smallest plants and animals invisible to the human eye to entire ecosystems, every living thing depends on and is intricately linked by water. Tune in to 88.1 WYPR every Tuesday at 5:45 pm as John brings to the surface important issues and fascinating discoveries making waves in the world today. April 3, 2013: Bayscaping Click here to listen to John discuss the importance of conservation-minded landscaping! For many of us, spring means we can get our hands dirty. We bring out the mowers and the yard tools, head to the nurseries to buy seeds or plants for the garden, and enjoy spending our weekends outdoors working in the yard. Increasingly in our region, a conservation-minded landscaping trend is taking hold. Sometimes called "bayscaping" here in the Mid-Atlantic, conservation landscaping incorporates sustainable strategies. The goal is to create an outdoor environment that reduces pollution and helps combat the contaminants that run into the Chesapeake Bay every day. According to Blue Water Baltimore, Americans use 5 million tons of fertilizer and more than 70 million pounds of pesticides every year. Many times, these treatments are over-applied or applied at the wrong time, and they run off into our waterways. To minimize the use of these types of garden treatments, one of the first things you can do is eliminate invasive plant species and instead incorporate native plants into your yard. Native plants are those that are naturally present in your region, while non-native species have been brought to the region at some point in history. Because native plants are uniquely adapted to a particular region, they don't require as much water, fertilizer, or pesticides to be healthy. If you do find it necessary to use pesticides in your yard, first try alternatives, such as horticultural soaps. Pesticides not only kill the pests, but they harm other inhabitants of your yard as well. Another key goal of bayscaping is the establishment of your green space as a dynamic wildlife habitat. According to the Chesapeake Conservation Landscaping Council, minimizing the amount of lawn and replacing it with layers of plants—including trees, shrubs, and perennials—make yards wildlife friendly by providing a variety of shelter. Less lawn also means less mowing, which is another environmental plus. It's also important to provide year-round water and food sources for your yard inhabitants. Incorporating bayscaping strategies may mean that your yard doesn't look like your neighbor's, but that's not a bad thing. Take the opportunity to educate them about sustainable landscaping practices. You may start a neighborhood trend that the Chesapeake Bay will thank you for! Once your yard is bayscaped, there are several certification programs that will validate your conservation efforts. To achieve Bay-Wise certification, a Master Gardener will assess your property and give your yard a score. You can also create a National Wildlife Federation Certified Wildlife Habitat by providing appropriate shelter, food, and water for the animals in your yard!

A rarity with real wasabi root, Wasabia japonica, valued for its fiery flavor and purifying qualities. Mix it with hot water into a paste. Essential for sushi, it adds zest to salad dressings, marinades, mayonnaise, vinaigrettes, and dips. Hot and stimulating. No artificial colors or additives.
Eden Wasabi Powder is made from washed, cut and dried wasabi (Japanese horseradish) and Western wasabi (horseradish) that is ground into a fine powder. Mustard seed is ground and most of the oil is extracted, leaving about 4 percent of the oil in the seed. The seed is then ground again into a fine powder. The remaining oil in the mustard powder is needed to bind the wasabi and horseradish powders. All of the powders are then combined and mixed before packaging in sealed containers to preserve flavor and nutrients.
Wasabi Wasabia japonica is native to Japan where it is considered a national treasure. A member of the Cruciferae or mustard family, it has heart shaped leaves and small white blossoms. Although it is mainly the hot root that is used to make true wasabi powder, the leaves and stems are often used as well. Wasabi grows only near pure cold running streams or rivers and will not grow in a polluted environment.
Most commercial wasabi powders do not contain any real wasabi, which is very expensive. They are made from Western horseradish, mustard, or daikon radish mixed with cornstarch or potato starch, that act as a binding agent. Cornstarch is chemically extracted and bleached. Both cornstarch and potato starch are commonly polluted with GEOs (gentically modified organisms). Most commercial wasabi powder is made with a mixture of blue and yellow dyes, to give it the classic green color of real wasabi. Eden Wasabi Powder is completely natural and contains no dyes, starches, additives or preservatives.
Wasabi is deeply warming and has long been valued as a digestive aid in Japan and China. In the June 2001 issue of "Vegetarian Times", "According to researcher Hideki Masuda, Ph.D., isothiocyanates, the compounds responsible for wasabi's kick, also fight cavities. Researchers believe that isothiocyanates prevent bacteria from sticking to the teeth, the first step in cavity formation. It also stimulates and cleanses the palate."
To serve Eden Wasabi Powder as a condiment for sushi, sashimi and noodle dishes, mix a small amount of hot water with a little powder to make a thick paste. Allow the paste to rest for a minute or two. Hot water and resting, fully releases the fiery qualities of wasabi. Wasabi enhances the flavor of most fish, especially tuna, yellowtail and salmon. It is an excellent addition for hor d'ourves, marinades, dips, mayonnaise, dressings and vinaigrettes. Delicious in Spicy Wasabi Marinade, in the recipe section.

This past Saturday, I went to the 1650 Gallery in Echo Park to check out the opening of This Ain't a Scene: The Vibrant Music Community of East LA which was co-presented by Radio Free Silver Lake and compiled by Jackie Lam. Radio Free Silver Lake is a website focused on Indie music in Los Angeles.

Note: The "East LA" of the subtitle could be construed as a bit misleading.. East Los (whose vibrant music community produced performers like Black Eyed Peas, Cannibal & the Headhunters, Hope Sandoval, J-vibe, Kid Frost, Lalo Guerrero, Los Lobos, Los Illegals, Louie Perez, Luis Villegas, Quetzal, Suzanna Guzman, Taboo, The Bags, The Blazers, Thee Midniters and Tierra and supported live venues like Club 469, Eastside Nightclub, El Club Baion, Kennedy Hall, The Lamp Lighter, The M Club, Rudy's Past House and Vex) is not represented here. The bands and venues depicted in this show are, if I'm not mistaken, all from Echo Park, P-Town and Silver Lake -- three neighborhoods in the eastern portion of Central LA that belong to a region that no one has named with a widely-accepted term.) Enough quibbling about geography and nomenclature from me… let's start the show.

At Design Interviews
(Excerpt) Interview with HUAWU HE : Frank Scott: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?. HUAWU HE : It's experience including aesthetics under the skilled technical norms. Design plays a role in the special era without standard. It is that the users and participants bring the certain characters to space in the situation or daily life. Using space as the scipt and start storytelling ,namely demonstrating space theme.There is such a well-known saying that practice makes perfect. Only if we practice a lot and master the rules , can we find many skills. .Frank Scott: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?. HUAWU HE : We have to initiatively develope the cultural spirit of the buildings , get rid of constraint about traditional thinking and add new design ideas and elements. It forms independent styles through new languages.It will be on the behalf of pioneers or advance guard.And it means that it will be the main stream in the future. .Frank Scott: What are your future plans for this award winning design?. HUAWU HE : The honor proves that our thinking path is always in the front of era and we will continue this way to find out new ideas and moving on. .Frank Scott: How long did it take you to design this particular concept?. HUAWU HE : We spend three months to think indepently and explore. .Frank Scott: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration?. HUAWU HE : When I begin to design this, what I do is the leap thinking about the regional cultural situation, with complicated, variable and dynamic architectural form, to dispel the completion and harmony of the formal system. .Frank Scott: Is your design being produced or used by another company, or do you plan to sell or lease the production rights or do you intent to produce your work yourself?. HUAWU HE : Not yet. Personally, I think it is of no right of use. I belive we can feel deligghted through sharing our designs. We are very glad and eager to exchange and share with others. .Frank Scott: What made you design this particular type of work?. HUAWU HE : We try to make the space vive, creative and dynamic in function and aesthetics. .Frank Scott: Where there any other designs and/or designers that helped the influence the design of your work?. HUAWU HE : We have always been searching for and innovating new ideas. .Frank Scott: Who is the target customer for his design?. HUAWU HE : The idealists who can give a light on balanced thinking and values. .Frank Scott: What sets this design apart from other similar or resembling concepts?. HUAWU HE : We keep pursuing spitial warmth in the circumstance of poetic feature.The thinkful and warm space stand out in the substantial and abstract versions. .Frank Scott: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?. HUAWU HE : We advocate unadorened properties, between realism and abstractionism. It won't be too simple for people to see it through or too proufound that make them halt. It will lead people to enjoy, to appreciate and to feel the entirety design and also details of it. Implication of the details means the form of intelligence, momentarily inspiration and the passion of life reflected in comfort, making it more close to the nature of space. It naturally abandoned the representation details , and highlights the combination of nature and life. .Frank Scott: Which design tools did you use when you were working on this project?. HUAWU HE : The essence of space is a carrier of humannity, therefore no special technique was used. The integrate of my experience and my thoughts makes this primitiveness and pure tension of the space come into being. .Frank Scott: What is the most unique aspect of your design?. HUAWU HE : Shaping the scene mode with bold thinking, to proddece a 4-D inner space image of the architecture, and the inner heart seems to generate a kind of lighting and explosive spiritual qualities. .F.[ End of Excerpt: Read complete interview with HUAWU HE on Jingang City Sales Center at design-interviews.com ]

This is about as corporate/conservative/globalization/neoliberal economic as you can get.
Strong words.
The release of methane and carbon dioxide from thawing permafrost will accelerate global warming and add up to $70tn (£54tn) to the world's climate bill, according to the most advanced study yet of the economic consequences of a melting Arctic.
If nations fail to improve on their current Paris agreement commitments, this feedback mechanism combined with a loss of heat-deflecting white ice will cause a near 5% amplification of global warming and its associated costs, says the paper, which was published on Tuesday in Nature Communications.
The authors say their study is the first to calculate the economic impact of permafrost melt and reduced albedo – a measure of how much light that hits a surface is reflected without being absorbed – based on the most advanced computer models of what is likely to happen in the Arctic as temperatures rise. It shows how destabilised natural systems will worsen the problem caused by man-made emissions, making it more difficult and expensive to solve.
They assessed stocks of CO2 and methane trapped in the permafrost by using samples taken from a depth of three metres at multiple points across the Arctic. These were run through the world's most advanced climate simulation software in the US and at the UK Met Office to predict how much gas will be released at different levels of warming. Even with supercomputers, the number crunching took weeks because the vast geography and complex climate interactions of the Arctic throw up multiple variables. The researchers then applied previous economic impact models to assess the likely costs.
Permafrost melt is the main concern. Greenhouse gases, which have been frozen below the soil for centuries, have already begun to escape at the current level of 1 degrees Celsius of global heating. So far the impact is small. Ten gigatonnes of CO2 have been released from the ice but this source of emissions will grow rapidly once temperatures rise beyond 1.5C.
On the current trajectory of at least 3C of warming by the end of the century, melting permafrost is expected to discharge 280 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide and 3 gigatonnes of methane, which has a climate effect that is 10 to 20 times stronger than CO2.
This would increase the global cost of destruction, adaptation and emissions reduction by $70tn between now and 2300. This is 10 times higher than the projected benefits from a melting Arctic, such as easier navigation for ships and access to minerals, says the paper.

Well, it looks like global sea ice for both extent and area is now at an all-time load for this time of year. Just a decade ago, climate denialists/skeptics were hanging their hats on these numbers.

Chemical drift a growing concern for rural residents
MACKINAW – Paul Hahn, owner of Mackinaw Valley Vineyard, has battled chemical drift from nearby farm fields for more than a decade, and this year his vines got slammed by drift from the herbicide 2,4-D. Cal Snow, a retired high school teacher, has watched chemical drift from a nearby farm field billow over children playing in his subdivision south of Lacon. Across Illinois Route 26 from Snow's subdivision, Gary Barnes, a retired minister, has filed complaints about chemical drift with the Illinois Department of Agriculture for 14 years. State legislatures throughout the country are grappling with chemical drift from farm fields and the conflict between the rights and pressures of farming and the rights and health of rural residents. By Clare Howard of the Peoria Journal Star.
Illinois farmers increase use of plane-sprayed fungicides
PEORIA – There's a new player on the chemical farming scene: fungicide. There's nothing new about using chemicals to ward off disease but in recent years, many Illinois farmers have used airplanes to spray fungicide over as much as 20 percent of the state's 12 million acres of corn, estimated Jean Payne, president of the Illinois Fertilizer & Chemical Association. By Steve Tarter of the Peoria Journal Star.

Crops running well behind schedule
MAPLETON – If you've been worrying about your tomatoes this year, you aren't alone. Even Master Gardeners are having a time of it. "Crops are two to three weeks behind where they should be at this time, " said Margie Karl of Mapleton, president of the Master Gardeners of Peoria County, a group of "green thumb" experts organized by the University of Illinois Extension service to provide assistance to the gardening public.

PEORIA – The ultimate joy for an old lady, says 82-year-old Jackie Buster, is a La-Z-Boy in front of the sliding glass doors of what was once a dining area looking out over her garden. The view is green all year, she says of the hostas, yews, trees and assorted ground covers framing the pond of her backyard garden. By Pam Adams of the Peoria Journal Star.
School supplies a challenge for schools, families
SPRINGFIELD – Angela Kaitschuk, a first-grade teacher at Graham Elementary School, has a reason for putting four boxes of 16 crayons each on her list of back-to-school supplies. Last Thursday was the second day of school at Graham, which follows a year-round calendar. After students were let out that afternoon, Kaitschuk produced a ripped box of crayons, the tips of which already were worn down. Wear and tear is one thing. A bigger challenge for teachers, school administrators and even community groups is making sure students have back-to-school materials in the first place. By Pete Sherman of the State Journal-Register.
Experts: Steamy TV, no discussion lead to more STDs
SPRINGFIELD – Steamy love scenes in the media, out-of-control libidos and a lack of frank talk in the classroom may be contributing to an increase in sexually transmitted diseases in Illinois, health experts say. "Popular culture glamorizes sex," said Charlie Rabins, chief of the STD program at the Illinois Department of Public Health. "There are very few prevention messages." At the same time, financially strapped school districts haven't had enough resources to teach adolescents about preventing STDs, and when those classroom discussions do happen, contraceptives often are left out in favor of abstinence-only curriculums, he said. By Dean Olsen of the State Journal-Register.

Dave Bakke: Sometimes a muffin is more than a muffin
Shirley Faulkner went to the Panera Bread on Dirksen Parkway to order a dozen blueberry muffins. Sorry, she was told, we're out of blueberry muffins. Shirley was disappointed to hear that. Really, really disappointed. Her husband, Jerome, who goes by "Moe," is in the last stages of terminal liver cancer. One of the effects the disease has had on Moe is robbing him of his sense of taste. One of the few foods he can still enjoy are the blueberry muffins.
Phil Luciano: Good Book stolen as part of robbery
" 'But all who devour you will be devoured; all your enemies will go into exile. Those who plunder you will be plundered; all who make spoil of you I will despoil. But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds," declares the Lord.' " - Jeremiah 30:16-17. Perhaps that verse can comfort Michael, the victim of one of Peoria's weirdest robberies in a long time. As for the guy who ripped him off? Maybe, just maybe, he'll take a good, hard look at those words. After all, he has them at his fingertips, because he took Michael's Bible at gunpoint.
Editorial: Re-examine how state imprisons criminals
One of the legacies Rod Blagojevich left Gov. Pat Quinn was an anemic state workforce, stressed and stretched to the limit in some departments. Perhaps nowhere are state employees more overworked, perhaps dangerously so given the stressful environment, than in the Illinois Department of Corrections. It's time for a comprehensive re-examination and re-engineering of how the state imprisons people. An editorial from the State Journal-Register.

What is Human Anatomy?
Human anatomy can be precisely defined as a complementary basic medical science, which deals with the scientific study of morphology of human body. In simpler words, human anatomy is the study of structure of human body.
Subdivisions of Human Anatomy:
There are two main levels of structure of human body (as well as every other thing): macroscopic level and microscopic level. For each of the two levels. there is a separate subdivision of anatomy. The one dealing with macroscopic level is known as gross anatomy and the other which deals with microscopic level is called microscopic anatomy or histology.
Gross anatomy:
In gross anatomy, structure of human body is studied as seen by naked eye. There are two approaches for gross anatomy: Regional approach and Systemic approach.
- In regional approach, human body is divided into regions like arm, forearm, wrist etc and all structures within that region are studied simultaneously.
- Whereas in systemic approach, the body is divided into organ systems such as skeletal system, muscular system, nervous system etc and structures belonging to one system are studied together. This website follows the systemic approach. Visit "Body Systems" for detailed study of each system of human body.
Histology or microscopic anatomy is the study of the structure of various organs and tissues of human body under a microscope. The understanding of the ultra-structure helps understand the tissues and organs in a better way.
Basic Anatomy:
In addition to the main subdivisions of human anatomy described above, a third branch, called basic anatomy, is considered of significant importance. It explains the basic terms and definitions used in the study of gross as well as microscopic anatomy. Thus it provides an introduction to anatomy and tells how to study it.

The deal from Bill Doraty's car dealership in Medina, Ohio, goes like this: Buy a KIA this week, and if the Browns shut out the Steelers on Sunday, it's free. The Steelers have won 21 of their last 23 games against the Browns. No team has shut the Steelers out since 2006. The Browns last blanked Pittsburgh in 1989. And the Browns are, well, you know, the Browns.
The Steelers also have a chance to clinch the AFC North title and a first-round playoff bye, which will happen if they win and the Ravens lose to the Bengals. The Browns? They can wrap up a .500 home record for the season, which is pretty much all the incentive they're gonna need, right? Vegas has put the odds at the Browns shutting out the Steelers at 5000 to 1, which the National Weather Service says is exactly half the odds of getting struck by lightning.
"Lightning can strike. You never know," Doraty said.
Just six percent of those polled by Cleveland.com think the Browns will actually win, let alone shut the Steelers out. Which begs the question: Wouldn't Browns fans just prefer to be struck by lightning?

The Hawks have signed Daniel Hamilton to a one-year, guaranteed deal.
Hamilton was a two-way player for the Thunder last year so this is a nice step up. It's certainly possible that he figures into the reserve unit with the Hawks letting go of most of the youngsters that rotated in and out of the lineup down the stretch last season. Hamilton played just six games with OKC but averaged 16.1 points, 9.0 rebounds, 8.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.6 triples across 45 G-League contests.

Sean Deveney reported that "multiple agents say not all players are on board with an NBA return".
One agent said, "Most of the guys are excited, fired up, they want to get back out there. Those are 95 percent of the conversations I have had". There are players that feel the money is not worth putting themselves and their families at risk. Enes Kanter weighed in on the topic, saying "there are some other team's players out there, that they don't want to play. They're like, 'It's just a game. I'm not going to risk my life". It is likely that the high-profile players will still play, but it looks like some role players may not be willing to take the risk to join their team when the NBA season resumes.

Although the Pistons' season is likely over as they are not one of the 22 teams that will continue to play if the Board of Governors vote to ratify the plan on Thursday, this will allow players to stay in shape for the 2020-21 season which is expected to start in December.

Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that the Pelicans, Blazers, Suns, Kings, Spurs and Wizards will be the six non-playoff teams resuming action when the NBA restarts.
This makes complete sense, as they're the only non-playoff teams that can sniff the postseason. Woj backs up an earlier Shams Charania report about a potential play-in tournament for the final playoff spot in each Conference as well. If the ninth seed trails the eighth seed by more than four games when the league's truncated regular season wraps up, the eighth seed makes the playoffs. If the deficit is under four games, however, the two teams will compete in a play-in tournament that is double-elimination for the eighth seed and single-elimination for the ninth.

Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that the NBA will have an eight-game regular season for the purposes of playoff seeding upon its return while Shams Charania reports that there will be a play-in tournament for the eighth seed.
This applies to the NBA coming back with 22 teams, as the league's bottom eight are well out of playoff contention and bringing them to Orlando would only negatively affect the league's pursuit for player safety. As for the play-in tournament, Charania describes it as such: "If the ninth seed is more than four games behind the eighth seed, the eighth seed earns the playoff spot; if the ninth seed is four or fewer games behind, then the eighth and ninth seed will enter a play-in tournament that is double-elimination for the eighth seed and single-elimination for ninth." Expect another announcement about the league's format in the coming days.

June 2, 2020, 10:02 pmCorey BrewerSF, Sacramento Kings
Corey Brewer, a veteran of eight different NBA teams, is still hoping to sign another contract before he calls it a career.
Brewer, 34, seems to think he has enough in the tank for one final stint in the NBA. "We had some talks with a few teams, but nothing really happened. My agent is still working on it, so we'll see," Brewer said. "I feel like I can still help a team and I feel like I have a few good years left. But you never know, man." Brewer has not suited up for an NBA team this season and, with a waning jump shot and increased age, his chances of securing another pact in the NBA are pretty unlikely.

Kings broadcaster Grant Napear stepped down from his position with the Kings on Tuesday after he said 'All Lives Matter..Every Single One!' when asked about his thoughts on the Black Lives Matter movement during a Twitter interaction with former Kings center DeMarcus Cousins.
This is the first domino to fall in American professional sports in relation to the Black Lives Matter movement, even if it's a relatively insignificant one. Napear said of himself and the interaction, "I'm not as educated on BLM as I thought I was. I had no idea that when I said 'All Lives Matter' that it was counter to what BLM was trying to get across," he said. "I'm in pain. I'm 60 years old and I still have a lot to learn." The Kings will evidently have to find a new play-by-play man for their radio broadcasts to accompany Doug Christie when games resume.

June 2, 2020, 8:45 pmJohn WallPG, Washington Wizards
John Wall, who has long been rumored to have absolutely zero chance of returning to the court even if the current season is resumed, said in a conference call last week that he feels "110 percent."
Wall and the Wizards both maintain that he will not return to action this season, regardless of the outcome of the vote on Thursday by the NBA Board of Governors. This is good news, obviously, for the team as they set their sights on next season. As of late, trade rumors have been swirling around the franchise's two top assets: Wall and All Star guard Bradley Beal. Moving forward, there is a high possibility that the Wizards will decide between the two, as Beal's contract will expire after next season. Which player will the Wizards keep? Who will they trade, or will they trade them both? They are hoping to have some time to evaluate how the pair plays in tandem early next season, as Wall has missed significant time with a torn left Achilles he suffered during the 2018-19 season. But it may be too late to negotiate an extension with Beal at that point, so they will have to play their cards with extreme care.

Wes Unseld, a Hall of Famer and Washington Bullets legend, passed away on Tuesday due to complications with pneumonia and other illnesses. He was 74 years old.
An outstanding rebounder, Unseld is also one of only two players to ever be awarded Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player in the same season in 1968-69. He guided the Bullets to the NBA Finals four times, winning once in 1978, a series where Unseld took home MVP honors. Hornets' GM and former teammate Mitch Kupchak said of Unseld, "As a teammate, he was tough, dependable and competitive to no end." Unseld was a fearless competitor and highly respected across the league during his 13 seasons with the Bullets franchise. Former Knicks center and fellow Hall of Famer Willis Reed recently recalled their battles against one another, "He was most consciously a rebounder — he could shoot, but he didn't emphasize that part of his game — and felt that if he did his job right, by getting the defensive rebound and making the quick outlet pass, they would score quickly." Unseld was undoubtedly a pioneer for the game of basketball and means a great deal to the city of Washington D.C.

The Warriors opened their practice facility on Monday, per Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
Slater adds that five players showed up for voluntary workouts. It's the first time that Golden State's gym has been open in over two months, and there are only three teams who have yet to get players back into team facilities. While it must be nice for the players to get back to some kind of business, the Warriors are not expected to be playing any more games this season given their league-worst record and the likelihood that the NBA trims the fat rather than ask every team to play out the season.

General Information
Observe all precautions and limitations on the labels of each product used in tank mixtures. Tank mixtures are permitted only in those states where the tank mix partner is registered. Refer to and follow the label for each tank mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions.
CHARGER BASIC is a selective herbicide recommended as a preplant surface-applied, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment in water or fluid fertilizer for control of most annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds in corn (all types), cotton, grasses grown for seed, peanuts, pod crops, potatoes, safflowers, sugar beets, sunflowers, grain or forage sorghum, soybeans, and tomatoes.
Note: Do not use in nurseries, turf, or landscape plantings.
Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this product to nontarget areas.
To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion:
- Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are favorable for wind erosion.
- Under these conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation.
- Do not apply to impervious substrates, such as paved or highly compacted surfaces.
- Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat non-target crops, unless at least 1/2 inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.
Where directions specify a CHARGER BASIC tank mixture with AAtrex formulations, other brands of atrazine may be used. Follow the rates, recommendations, and limitations on the AAtrex or respective atrazine product label if other brands of atrazine are used.
Note: Certain states may have established rate limitations for atrazine within specific geographical areas. Consult your state lead pesticide control agency for additional information. It is a violation of the label to deviate from state use regulations.
If CHARGER BASIC is incorporated, any supplemental tillage before planting must not exceed the depth of incorporation.
Dry weather following preemergence application of CHARGER BASIC or a tank mixture may reduce effectiveness. Cultivate if weeds develop.
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean erratic control from good to poor, or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial weed control.
Precaution: Injury may occur following the use of CHARGER BASIC under abnormally high soil moisture conditions during early development of the crop.
Within rate ranges in the rate tables and elsewhere on the label, use the lower rate on soils relatively coarse-textured or low in organic matter; use the higher rate on soils relatively fine-textured or high in organic matter.
Note: CHARGER BASIC may be applied preemergence alone, or in combination with tank mix partners specified on the label, following preplant incorporated herbicides when used according to their label recommendations, provided that such use is not prohibited on the respective labels.
Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application device before using. Dispose of cleaning solu¬tion in a responsible manner. Do not use a sprayer or applicator contaminated with any other materials, or crop damage or clogging of the application device may result.
Weeds Partially Controlled: common purslane, eclipta, , hairy night¬shade, sandbur, seedling johnsongrass, shattercane, ,volunteer sorghum, wild proso millet, and woolly cupgrass.
Florida beggarweed - For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 1.33 pts./A and apply preemergence.
Texas panicum - For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 1.33 pts./A and apply through a center pivot irrigation system.
- See General Information section. Control of these weeds can be erratic, due partially to variable weather conditions. Control may be improved by following these suggested procedures:
- Thoroughly till moist soil to destroy germinating and emerged weeds. If CHARGER BASIC is to be applied preplant incorporated, this tillage may be used to incorporate CHARGER BASIC if uniform 2-inch incorporation is achieved as recommended under Application Procedures.
- Plant crop into moist soil immediately after tillage. If CHARGER BASIC is to be used preemergence, apply at planting or immediately after planting.
- If available, • sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application. Apply 1/2-1 inch of water. Use lower water volume (1/2 inch) on coarse-textured soils and higher volume (1 inch) on fine-textured soils. Also, refer to the section on Center Pivot Irrigation Application for this method of applying CHARGER BASIC.
- If irrigation is not possible and rain does not occur within 2 days after planting and application, weed control may be decreased. Under these conditions, a uniform, shallow cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
Application Timing
CHARGER BASIC alone or in some tank mixtures with other labeled herbicides may be applied for weed control in certain crops at various times. Refer to the given crop section of the label to determine if application timings listed below are recommended.
- Preplant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems only, CHARGER BASIC alone and some CHARGER BASIC tank mixtures may be applied up to 45 days before planting certain crops. Use only split applications for treatments made 30-45 days before planting, with 2/3 the recommended broadcast rate for the crop and soil texture applied initially and the remaining 1/3 at planting. Treatments less than 30 days before planting may be made either as a split or a single application. Refer to individual crop to determine if early preplant surface application is recommended. If weeds are present at the time of treatment, apply in a tank mixture combination with a contact herbicide (for example, Gramoxone MAX or Roundup). Observe directions for use, precautions, and restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. To the extent possible, do not move treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed control will be diminished.
Preplant Incorporated: Apply CHARGER BASIC to the soil and incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days before planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2-inch incorporation. Use a preplant incorporated application if furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry weather after application is expected. If crop will be planted on beds, apply and incorporate CHARGER BASIC after bed formation, unless specified otherwise.
Preemergence: Apply CHARGER BASIC during planting (behind the planter) or after planting, but before weeds or crops emerge.
Postemergence: CHARGER BASIC may be applied postemergence to corn, up to 40 inches tall. CHARGER BASIC will not provide postemergence weed control so it must be applied to a weed-free soil surface or in combination with products that provide postemergence control of weed species present at the time of application. Use only where allowed in crop specific directions for use.
Special Application Procedures
CA Only (Corn, Safflowers, Pod Crops): Preplant Incorporated: Broadcast CHARGER BASIC alone or with tank mix partners listed on the label to the soil and thoroughly incorporate with a disk or similar implement set to till 4-6 inches deep. For more thorough incorporation, till the soil in 2 different directions (cross-till). Crops may be planted on flat surface or on beds. Caution should be used when forming the beds that only soil from the CHARGER BASIC treated zone is used (i.e., untreated soil should not be brought to soil surface). If the application is made to preformed beds, incorporate CHARGER BASIC with a tillage implement set to till 2-4 inches deep. Care should be taken during tilling to keep the tilled (CHARGER BASIC treated) soil on the beds. Preemergence: Apply CHARGER BASIC after planting. Water with sprinkler or flood irrigation within 7-10 days.
Fall Application (Only in IA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and portions of NE and IL - See specific instructions in the Corn, Soybeans, and Pod Crops sections of the label for timing of application and other information): Do not apply to frozen ground. Use on medium and fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter that will be planted to corn or soybeans the next spring. Ground may be tilled before or after application. Do not exceed a 2 to 3-inch incorporation depth if tilled after treatment. Note: If a spring application is made, the total rate of the fall plus spring applications must not exceed the maximum total rate for the specific crop, or illegal residues may result.
Ground Application: Apply CHARGER BASIC alone or in tank mixtures by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gals. of spray mixture per acre, unless otherwise specified.
For information on applying in lower volumes of carrier, see Low Carrier Application section.
For application by air or through center pivot systems, see Aerial Drift Management and Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information sections.
For information on impregnating dry fertilizer, see Dry Bulk Granular Fertilizers section.
For information on application using variable-rate technologies, see Variable-Rate Application section.
For Broadcast Ground Application Only
Use sprayers, such as, Hagie, John Deere Hi-Cycle, Melroe Spra-Coupe, or Willmar Air Ride®, that provide accurate and uniform application. Only water may be used as a carrier. Screens in suction and in-line strainers should be 50-mesh. Manufacturers may require that tip screens as fine as 100-mesh be used with some nozzles. Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain up to 35-40 psi at the nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension. Use a minimum of 5.0 gals. of spray mixture per acre. Maximum recommended sprayer speed is 15 mph. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water immediately after each use.
Note: Low pressure nozzles are recommended to reduce drift and increase application accuracy. Care should be taken when using automatic rate controlling devices to spray the material within the rated working pressure and flow ranges of the nozzles selected. Nozzle screens should be used when recommended by the manufacturer. All nozzles should be placed on 20-inch centers, except flooding types which should be placed on 40-inch centers. When Flat Fan-type nozzles are used, angles of 80° or 110° are recommended. Always read and follow the manufacturer's directions for optimum setup and performance of their nozzles or tips.
Apply CHARGER BASIC in water alone or in tank mixtures with AAtrex, Lexone, Lorox, or Sencor in a minimum total volume of 2.0 gals./A by aircraft. CHARGER BASIC may also be applied by air in combination with Balan, Framework or Trust. Avoid application under conditions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur. In order to assure that spray will be controllable within the target area when used according to label directions, make applications at a maximum height of 10 ft., using low-drift nozzles at a maximum pressure of 40 psi, and restrict application to periods when wind speed does not exceed 10 mph. To assure that spray will not adversely affect adjacent sensitive nontarget plants, apply CHARGER BASIC alone or CHARGER BASIC + AAtrex by aircraft at a minimum upwind distance of 400 ft. from sensitive plants, or apply CHARGER BASIC + Lexone, Lorox, or Sencor at a minimum upwind distance of 300 ft. from sensitive plants.
Apply 200-700 lbs. of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre. For best results, apply the mixture uniformly to the soil with properly calibrated equipment immediately after blending. Uniform application of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is essential to prevent possible crop injury. Nonuniform application may also result in unsatisfactory weed control. In areas where conventional tillage is practiced, a shallow incorporation of the mixture into the soil may improve weed control. On fine- or medium-textured soils in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, i.e., reduced tillage situations or in some conventional till situations, make applications approximately 30 days before planting to allow moisture to move the herbicide/fertilizer mixture into the soil. On coarse-textured soils, make applications approximately 14 days prior to planting.
Precaution: To avoid crop injury, do not use the herbicide/fertilizer mixture on crops where bedding occurs.
Variable-Rate Broadcast Ground Application for Corn and Soybeans
Variable-rate technologies may be used for more precise applications. Two additive factors have been determined for use in applications using variable-rate technologies. One of these factors (A) is directly related to soil texture and the other (B) is related to percent organic matter (OM) and soil texture. When these two factors are added together, the resulting application rate will be more precise for a soil of a given soil texture and organic matter content. Use the formulas below to assure a more precise rate for any given area within a field.
Refer in the label for tank mix information.
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence: Follow instructions for use of CHARGER BASIC alone under Application Procedures.
