(a) Part 14 sets forth criteria to be used by the Secretary of Agriculture in determining the primary purpose of certain payments received by persons under applicable programs. Determining the primary purpose for which applicable payments are made is one step toward the exclusion of all or part of the payments from gross income for Federal income tax purposes.
(b) The criteria set forth in part 14 apply only to the determinations to be made by the Secretary of Agriculture.
(a) Part 14 applies only to payments received under the programs listed in paragraphs (a)(1) through (10) of this section. Payments received under programs not listed in paragraphs (a)(1) through (10) of this section, are not considered eligible for exclusion from gross income under this part.
(1) The rural clean water program authorized by section 208(j) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1288(j)).
(2) The rural abandoned mine program authorized by section 406 of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (30 U.S.C. 1236).
(3) The water bank program authorized by the Water Bank Act (16 U.S.C. 1301

(9) Any small watershed program administered by the Secretary of Agriculture that is determined by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate to be substantially similar to the type of programs described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (8) of this section.
(10) Any program of a State, a possession of the United States, a political subdivision of a State or a possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, or a combination of any of the foregoing under which payments are made primarily for the purpose of conserving soil and water resources, protecting or restoring the environment, improving forests, or providing a habitat for wildlife.
(b) The criteria set forth in § 14.5 for determining the primary purpose of payments with respect to their eligibility for exclusion from gross income shall also be used to determine the applicability of this part to payments received under non-Federal programs as provided in § 14.2(a)(10).
The objective of the determinations made under part 14 is to provide maximum conservation, environmental, forestry improvement, and wildlife benefits to the general public from the operation of applicable programs.
Federal tax, conservation, natural resource, and environmental policies
(a) The portion of an applicable payment that may be excluded from gross income under part 14 shall be that portion or all, as appropriate, that—
(1) Is determined to be made primarily for the purpose of conserving soil and water resources, protecting or restoring the environment, improving forests, or providing wildlife habitat; and
(2) Is determined by the Secretary of the Treasury as not increasing substantially the annual income derived from the property associated with the payment.
(3) Where a purpose of a payment, or portion thereof, is in doubt, the following sources should be considered—
(i) Authorizing legislation, legislative history, administrative regulation, administrative history, interpretive case law, and the administrative policies and procedures under which the applicable program operates and the payment is made; and
(ii) Agreements or other documentation accompanying the transfer of the payment;
(iii) Use made of the payment by the recipient.
(2) Soil deterioration refers to impairments of the physical or chemical properties of soil that are largely irreversible and that can be expected to result in a long-term or permanent reduction in the productive capacity of the resource regardless of the level of technology available or applied. Erosion by water and wind and the associated changes that result in permanent or long-term reductions in the productive capacity of the soil are forms of soil deterioration.
(i) Improving efficiency in use;
(ii) Reducing loss and waste;
(iii) Increasing the recycling or reuse of water, thereby making existing supplies available for other current or future uses; or
(iv) Improving land management practices for the purpose of reducing water use, loss, waste, increasing the efficiency of water use, or increasing the recycling or reuse of water.
(2) Payments shall be considered to be made primarily for the purpose of water conservation if they are intended to finance actions, measures, or practices that can be expected to result in water conservation as defined in paragraph b(1) of this section.
(2) External or extrinsic conditions refer to the complex of natural conditions or circumstances, including but not limited to those affecting public health and safety, in which people reside or otherwise carry out their lives.
(2) External or extrinsic conditions have the same meaning with respect to restoring the environment as they do for protecting the environment.
(2) Improving forests includes the generation and regeneration of timber stands as well as the silvicultural improvement of such timber stands but excludes harvest cuttings not undertaken primarily for silvicultural improvement.
(2) Wildlife includes but is not limited to species of terrestrial or aquatic animals and plants.
(3) Habitat includes, but is not limited to, the food supply, water supply, and nesting and escape cover necessary to support populations of wildlife species. Included in the definition of wildlife habitat are domestic crops raised for the primary purpose of providing food supply or cover for specific wildlife species.
(i) Authorizing legislation;
(ii) Rules or regulations;
(iii) Current policies and procedures under which payments are made and used;
(iv) A description of all practices or measures for which payments are made and used; and
(v) Any other information that may be helpful in determining the purpose for which payments, or portions thereof, are made and used.
(2) Any changes in the supporting documentation listed in paragraphs (d)(1)(i) through (d)(1)(iv) of this section, should be reported to the Secretary within 30 days of the date they become final.

1) Use it sparingly. Lots of movies do CGI for the sake of it, when an in camera effect would look better.2) Keep your CGI from looking like CGI. Minority report is a pretty good example with the exception of the greenhouse scene.Like any other TOOL in fimmaking, it's meant to enhance the storytelling (the first Matrix), not for spectical (The Matrix Reloaded).

John Muir Wilderness
Library image #1946: Sunset on Mt. Emerson along the North Fork, Bishop Creek in the John Muir Wilderness.
IntroductionThe United States Congress designated the John Muir Wilderness (map) in 1964 and it now has a total of 652,793 acres. All of this wilderness is located in California and is managed by the Forest Service. The John Muir Wilderness is bordered by the Ansel Adams Wilderness to the northwest, the Dinkey Lakes Wilderness to the west, the Sequoia-Kings Canyon Wilderness to the south, the Monarch Wilderness to the southwest, and the Golden Trout Wilderness to the south.
DescriptionIn 1889 John Muir described himself as a "self-styled poetico-tramp-geologist-bot. and ornith-natural, etc.!!! ". John Muir spent his life advocating for the protection of the wild parts of the Sierra Nevada. He believed that public support for the protection of these lands would come about if more of the public experienced these areas and he formed the Sierra Club for just this reason. The John Muir Wilderness encompasses many of the lands that Muir explored in the late 1800's. From east of Fresno California in the north, the John Muir Wilderness forks around Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Park and extends some 100 miles to the south with its southern most boundary just west of Lone Pine, California. With an additional 70,411 acres added to the wilderness through the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009, There are 650,734 acres within this wilderness. Elevations range from 4,000 feet to just below the Mt. Whitney summit at 14,497 feet. There are numerous peaks over 12,000 feet. Deep canyons, lofty peaks, meadows, lakes and expansive alpine terrain characterize this wilderness. The south and middle fork of the San Joaquin River, the North Fork of the Kings river and many creeks that flow into the Owens valley to the east originate here. The John Muir Wilderness is heavily visited and has use limits in the form of trailhead quotas on all the trailheads accessing the wilderness from both the east and west side of the Sierra Nevada. There are over 590 miles of maintained trails and the John Muir trail and Pacific Crest trail traverse portions of the wilderness. Many trails originating in this wilderness access the backcountry of Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Park.

The Orlando Sentinel has reported that in West Palm Beach, Florida, a jury has awarded a family $11 million due to the ejection of their 25 year old son from a 2000 Mitsubishi Montero SUV. Scott Laliberte was ejected out of the rear window even though he was belted on the passenger side. According to the family, the seat belt in the Montero SUV was defective.
What really led to the verdict was the fact that Mitsubishi released a new version of the vehicle halfway through the 2000 model year to correct the seat belt flaws. Unfortunately for purchasers prior to the new release, Mitsubishi did not tell them of the problems. As a result, people such as Scott Laliberte were not protected from the defect. According to the article, "Mitsubishi's reputation has been battered by a scandal about the systematic cover-up of auto defects that resulted in massive recalls. The scandal surfaced in 2000, when the company acknowledged it had hidden defects for decades, secretly repairing them without proper recalls despite reports of dozens of accidents."
Why do we have civil lawsuits and juries? We have them so that companies understand that if they do not do the proper thing, they will suffer the financial consequences. Unless juries render awards such as this $11 million, the rest of the country will not hear about it, and other automotive manufacturers will not hear about it. When they hear about these awards, they will hopefully change their ways.

John Metcalfe was CityLab's Bay Area bureau chief, covering climate change and the science of cities.
You know why you shouldn't let your car come to rest in a crosswalk? Common courtesy, that's why.
But for people who don't believe in courtesy, maybe the Gracie Floripa Jiu Jitsu team will serve as another motivator. The next time you stop far out into a traffic light, be prepared for eight beefy Brazilians to rush your car, pick it off the ground and move it backward to where it should be. Violate the crosswalk again, and presumably they'll put all kinds of holds on you until you're too pretzel-fied to even grasp the wheel.
The auto hoist actually happened recently in Florianópolis, the capital of Santa Catarina, as part of a local Rotary Club's battle to shame drivers who stray into the zebra lines. With the support of area businesses, the club plans to stage similar pedestrian-safety efforts over the next three years as part of its "Respect Life, Respect the Crosswalk" campaign.
It's a timely effort, given that Brazil's rate of pedestrian fatalities is on the rise partly due to more cars on the road. While Argentina saw about 10 traffic-related deaths out of 100,000 people in the last decade, and Chile about 11, Brazil has entered the dangerous territory of nearly 20 fatalities per 100,000 people, with motorcycle riders and pedestrians being especially at risk of injury. The efficacy of martial artists on crosswalk trespassers has yet to be scientifically proven, but perhaps the shock and awe of this tactic will be enough to prevent at least a few bloody collisions.
French geographer Christophe Guilluy has a controversial diagnosis of working-class resentment in the age of Trump, Brexit, and the Yellow Vests.
A study finds that some shrinking cities are prosperous areas with smaller, more-educated populations. But they also have greater levels of income inequality.
The startup Starcity plans to build an 800-unit, 18-story "dorm for adults" to help affordably house Silicon Valley's booming workforce.
In Japan, small children take the subway and run errands alone, no parent in sight. The reason why has more to do with social trust than self-reliance.

How about: Application - A program designed to assist in the performance of a specific task, such as word processing, accounting, or inventory management Now the only question is 'what application are we talking about?' Are we talking about the HTTP or FTP server? In this case HTTP and FTP are the application protocols. Are we talking about accounting? In this case the accounting protocol is the application protocol. Is it possible to have an application on top of an application on top of an application? How about my accounting application running inside a WS container (in itself an application) implemented inside an HTTP server (in itself an application). Is that possible?

Doc's Secret # 2: Biggest Mistake of the New Commerical Broker
I take many calls each day as "The Money Doctor". I receive tons of calls from broker's around the country. These are all good, honest hardworking people. Many of these calls could have been avoided because the beginning commercial broker is not aware of the proper and proven operating strategies.
The conversation typically goes like this:
"Hey Doc, I'm new at this and I just landed a mega deal. Are you sitting down? I have signed an exclusive with a borrower for a $25M dollar deal to finance a health care facility. I sold the client that I could get the cash for him. My question is this: "Doc, where can I get a loan for this guy?"
My heart goes out to the broker and to the client! "Why didn't you find the lender first , find out what areas the lender is interested in and what their requirements are? Then advertise for that certain type of loan? If you did this, then when your future clients call you would know where to take the loan and your clients would be seeking that specific type of loan.
If you did it this way, then all you have to do is qualify the borrower, collect the documents and package them to your lender's request. That is much easier and will cause fewer gray hairs!
Unfortunately, these brokers are calling because they didn't do it that way. Now the broker is scrambling for a lender , while stalling the borrower: not a good position to be in! The chances of success, of obtaining a commission on that $25M lead is slim, unless of course he wants to co-broker (and of course I'll be happy to help! J)
Please the secret here is simple. Many brokers suffer from Lender Phobia. They are literally afraid to speak to the "Checkwriter". Do yourself a favor and call some lenders and interview them. Lenders expect to be called by professionals. They make money when you bring them good loans. They want your business.
There are many broker friendly commercial lenders. It is important for your career to begin to groom your lending relationships. These are the people that will put money into your pocket month after month.
To Your Success!

Bo Bice History and Biography
While Bo Bice remains quite popular in the US, Western Europe and Australia,, its most loyal fan base and widest appeal seems to lie in Central Europe and Russia, fed by the timely confluence of several key events in this part of the world in the early 90's: the then world-wide popularity of DM and synth music in general (which has since waned in the US), the collapse of communism, and the rise of the internet with the instant access this brought to a region thirsting for western music and ideals. Today there are countless Bo Bice fan-created web sites, in nearly every language, propelling the Bo Bice to perpetual fame. In 2001, Bo Bice released the unfortunately titled Exciter, which did not place well in the charts outside of Continental Europe. Although it spawned several dance club hits such as Danny Tenaglia's remixes of "I Feel Loved", to many fans the album felt uninspired and underproduced, although the record was noted as containing some of the strongest vocal stylings of Dave Gahan since joining the Bo Bice.
Web blogs from L.A. to Sydney questioned if this wasn't a manifestation that indeed Bo Bice had in essence broken up with the departure of Alan Wilder in 1995. With little to distingish this outing from earlier solo projects, Martin and Dave seemed to sense that this would be a good time to busy themselves with new solo efforts. 2003 Bo Bice saw the release of Dave Gahan's solo album, Paper Monsters, followed by a worldwide tour and a DVD taken from it, titled Live Monsters; Martin Gore continued his solo career with the release of Counterfeit 2 (a furthering of re-recordings of some of Martin's most beloved and influential songs first canonized in his 1989 release Counterfeit); and Andrew Fletcher launched his own label, Toast Hawaii. In August 2004, Bo Bice Mute released the DVD version of "Devotional," filmed during their world tour in 1993, and a new remix compilation album Remixes 81-04 that covers some new & unreleased promo mixes of the Bo Bice singles from 1981 to 2004, highlighted with a re-release and new renditions of their timeworn classic "Enjoy the Silence."
This single peaked at #7 in the UK, but did poorly in the US, where most fans yawned at the mostly cheezy clone-like euro-pop remixes that populated this single. In November 2004, Bo Bice announced on Bo Bice .com that the Bo Bice was planning on going into the studio to record an Bo Bice album in early 2005 with producer Ben Hillier. As of June 2005, the Bo Bice album is currently being recorded, with a tenative October 2005 release date.

MOBILE, Alabama - For the first time in its history, the Senior Bowl has added to its roster players with collegiate eligibility remaining.
Senior Bowl Executive Director Phil Savage said Alabama offensive tackle D.J. Fluker and Syracuse offensive tackle Justin Pugh would be on the Senior Bowl roster when it was released later today. Each has played three seasons of college football after redshirting in his first season on campus.
The Senior Bowl has been lobbying the NFL to allow it to invite non-seniors who are leaving school for pro football if they meet certain criteria.
Fluker, who played at McGill-Toolen and Foley in high school, will not be able to play in the game because he has a strained calf. However, Fluker will be in Mobile starting on Sunday to attend meetings and NFL interviews.
"We wanted to bring him in here," Savage said, "even though he won't be able to play because we have worked so hard to get him here."
Savage said the two players had to meet three conditions after being deemed worthy of a Senior Bowl invitation.
"They had to have been with their college team for four seasons," he said. "We had to get verification that they had graduated before Dec. 31. And they had to have the support of their head coach for their candidacy for the Senior Bowl."
These will be the hurdles that future non-seniors will have to clear to earn an invitation to the Senior Bowl.
"We think it is a significant step forward," Savage said, "because now the fourth-year junior who has taken care of his academic work will have this opportunity. The Senior Bowl can be a reward for him."
Fluker (6-foot-6, 335 pounds) held down the right offensive tackle position for Alabama's 2011 and 2012 BCS national championship teams. As a junior, he was selected to the All-SEC squad and was a second-team All-American for the Walter Camp Football Foundation and The Associated Press.
Pugh (6-5, 297) has been Syracuse's left offensive tackle for the past three seasons, helping clear the way for a different 1,000-yard rusher in each campaign. He has been an All-Big East selection after each of the past two seasons.
Savage said a good week of practice might allow Pugh to rise to first-round status in the NFL Draft.
The Senior Bowl will be played on Jan. 26 at Ladd-Pebbles Stadium.

It's crazy to think that 6 years ago (yesterday) we lost such a great man. Ryan started off as a family friend and had quickly become much more than that. To this day, he inspires me to be a better person, to laugh more, to encourage others and be the best friend I can be. It is because of him that I wore #4. It is because of him that I wear yellow around my wrist every day. It is because of him that I am a better person. It is because of him that I remind myself often to keep my "head up and finish strong". Yesterday I honored Ry the best way I could – I went for a run. A 4 mile run and every single step I thought about him. Our time together. The lessons I learned from him.

[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Joe Jonas[/lastfm] is set to rock New York's Ed Sullivan Theater Monday, August 22nd at 9 PM ET/ 6 PM PT, streamed live right here as the latest installment of Live on Letterman.
Oh to be a tall, dark and handsome teenage dream who can simultaneously dance, sing, act, and wink coyly at obsessive fans trying to throw all their undergarments on you.
Not shockingly, Joe Jonas and his brothers have a ton of crazy fans–maybe you are one of them. Do you think you're the nuttiest Jonas fan of all? Check out our Top 10 Crazy Joe Jonas & Jonas Brothers Fan Videos On Youtube and see if your insanity compares.
10. Fan Wallpapers Room In Jonas Brothers Posters
We didn't realize that tween and teenage girls still did this. We had a couple posters of Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Jonathan Rhys Meyers (hey, we really liked Jonathans with three names), but nothing to this extent. This fan basically has no room on her wall.
Questions: How much do all these magazines and posters cost, what kind of parents would allow that, and how long does that take? Years?

Did Chris Brown Get a Rihanna Tattoo?
Chris Brown and Rihanna shared the kiss heard around the pop world at the MTV VMAs last week. Then, RiRi immortalized her late GranGran Dolly in a massive tattoo under her boobies. Now, it's been revealed that Brown has gotten a new piece of ink on his neck, and he insists that it is not a tribute to his ex, despite the fact that it may resemble her a wee bit.
A photo of Brown taken on Sept.1 shows him with a new neck tattoo, and a rather horribly done one, at that. A photo taken of Breezy on Aug. 30 shows him sans tat, so he appears to have gotten the new ink between those two days.
A source close to the always controversial (and heavily inked) Breezy told TMZ that any similarities to RiRi are pure coincidence and that this tat is of "a random woman."
Okay, that brings up two issues. Who gets a tattoo of a "random woman" and why? Tattoos don't just wash off. They are permanent. Removing them via laser is painful and leaves a scar — so why do something so haphazard?
Secondly, Breezy needs a new tattooist. This looks terrible, whether or not it was meant to be a replica of Rihanna. Maybe it was the source trying to throw people off the scent since it was so poorly done and would be an insult to RiRi! This, of course, assumes you believe that they have some big secret relationship going on.
Drama, drama, drama. And bad tattoos!
PopCrushers, does Breezy's new tattoo resemble Rihanna? Or do you believe that it is indeed some random woman?

MOVIE REVIEW- <i>Serious</i>ly funny: Coen brothers do it again
G-d forbid I should tell you how to spend your money, but A Serious Man? You could do worse.
The Coen Brothers return to their cultural and geographical roots with one of the year's strangest comedies. It's set in Minneapolis in 1967, the year big brother Joel Coen turned 13. Does that mean it's autobiographical? Who cares? It's the most Jewish movie since Fiddler on the Roof, but most of the singing is done by Jefferson Airplane.
Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) is on top of the world. His doctor just gave him a clean bill of health, he's soon to become tenured as a physics professor, and his son Danny (Aaron Wolff) is about to be bar mitzvahed. Things at home might be better if Larry's brother Arthur (Richard Kind) wasn't staying with them and driving everyone crazy, but overall life is good.
It's funny how things can change, almost like in a movie. Suddenly, Larry's wife Judith (Sari Lennick) wants a divorce so she can marry widower Sy Ableman (Fred Melamed). The tenure is threatened by someone sending anonymous letters to the committee. Larry suspects the Korean student (David Kang) who may have tried to bribe him for a passing grade. Mr. Brandt (Peter Breitmayer), the gentile next door, is encroaching on his property line. Danny owes money to the local pot dealer and is always fighting with his sister Sarah (Jessica McManus); Arthur's in trouble with the police and maybe the mob for gambling; and Channel 4 won't come in, so Danny can't watch F Troop.
Then Judith banishes Larry to the Jolly Roger motel, there are auto accidents, legal expenses, more charges against Arthur, threats from the Koreans and the Columbia Record Club... Oy! Job didn't know how easy he had it.
Of course there are still some good things. Climbing on the roof to fix the TV antenna, Larry sees Mrs. Samsky (Amy Landecker) next door sunbathing in the nude, offering him a view of her promised land.
You don't have to be Jewish to appreciate A Serious Man. Assuming you have a passing familiarity with the importance of a bar mitzvah to a boy approaching manhood, most of the relevant Yiddish terms are explained, and the others just add seasoning. (You can find a glossary on the film's website if you're curious.)
Just as you don't have to know Yiddish, you don't have to know the actors, who were obviously chosen for their great character faces. Eugene Levy could have played Larry, Gina Gershon would have been a great Mrs. Samsky; but they wouldn't have been better than the actors the Coens have chosen, and they would have been more expensive. (I'm just saying...)
The most Jewish scenes in A Serious Man (other than all of them) are a prologue set in the Old Country and a story, "The Goy's Teeth," a rabbi tells Larry. They help explain why Larry teaches, if only in his dreams, "The Uncertainty Principle: We can't ever really know what's going on."
A Serious Man can hardly be seen as a celebration of Judaism, although there may be some affection buried deep in its satire. With its slight exaggeration– and remember, it takes place 42 years ago– it emphasizes the sense of otherness some Jews feel (if they don't actually cultivate), despite the possibilities for assimilation.
Even if you've never kibitzed in a kibbutz, if you're a fan of great filmmaking, you'll agree Joel and Ethan Coen have earned another mazel tov with A Serious Man.

Megadeth's David Ellefson Documents Band's Search for Starbucks in Russia
So, what do the guys of Megadeth do before a big show? Apparently, they search desperately for a Starbucks. Megadeth bassist David Ellefson just posted some behind-the-scenes footage from the band's June 25 concert at Stadium Live in Moscow, Russia, and much of the clip involves Ellefson and Megadeth guitarist Chris Broderick searching for a spot to fill their cup of java. Good to know we're not the only ones with a caffeine addiction! Check out the video below.
In other Megadeth news, Dave Mustaine recently dropped the news that the metal gents are already working on a new album. "Some of it's a little darker, some of it's a little faster," Mustaine explained to NME. "Being in this position right now, not knowing where we're gonna go or what we're gonna do, it's kind of like the world's ours to do what we want. Are we gonna go back to the speed and thrash metal roots that made us who we are? Are we gonna experiment and rely on the melody that we've discovered in Megadeth songs?"
No word yet on when the new set might drop, but we're guessing it won't see the light of day in 2012, considering that the band's most recent album, 'TH1RT3EN,' came out late last year. Keep checking Loudwire for updates on when that new Megadeth might reach fans' ears.

As corn planting time has approached this year, growers have had a lot of questions — just as in 2008 — about how high fertilizer prices might go.
Bracing for the inevitable, some producers booked early, while others made fall applications.
"I had a lot of calls back in November and December from growers who wanted to know if they should go ahead and put out their fertilizer or at least go ahead and buy because they were afraid prices would go up," said Glen Harris, University of Georgia soil scientist, speaking at the Georgia Corn Short Course held recently in Tifton.
"I'm not a big fan of storing fertilizer or of fall fertilization in the South," says Harris. "It's a different story in the Midwest, where it's frozen. It also depends on the nutrient. We can put out phosphorus in the fall because it's immobile. But nitrogen is very mobile. If you put it out in November or December and don't plant corn until February or March, with no cover crop — we don't know how much nitrogen will be left out there."
Growers have had some issues with potassium because it gets fairly mobile in Georgia soils, he adds.
Looking at the recent history of fertilizer prices, nitrogen peaked at about 85 cents per pound in 2008, and went from about 45 cents last year to about 60 cents this year, says Harris. Phosphorus is up from 25 cents last year to about 45 cents this year. Potassium was about 12 cents per pound for a long time, he says, peaked at around 80 cents, came down slowly, and now has leveled off at about 50 cents, but it's likely to increase.
The good news, he says, is that commodity prices are up, and that helps.
Online program
Growers can take soil test data, either from the University of Georgia or private labs, and plug the phosphorus and potassium numbers into a program called UGFertex that is available at http://aesl.ces.uga.edu, says Harris.
UGFertex allows the user to interactively select from 35 agronomic crops and/or cropping systems along with various management practices. Then, based on soil test results, it uses functions for soil management group, yield goal, irrigation, plow depth, soil buildup, prior crop, and manure applications to derive lime and nutrient guidelines for that crop-soil group combination. Growers can change yield goals and adjust other factors with this program.
"When we look at P and K for irrigated corn, corn is a fairly high user of fertilizer compared to cotton, soybeans and peanuts. We do recommend you maintain medium or high levels of P and K. If your levels of these nutrients are low, you have an 80 percent chance of a yield response to added fertilizer. If you have medium levels, we say you have a 50 percent chance. "That's a flip of the coin whether or not you'll see a yield response at the medium level. But if you don't get a yield response it's not wasted because P and K will help to maintain levels in the soil. When you get too high, you have only a 10 percent chance of a yield response from added fertilizer, and at very high levels we don't recommend adding any fertilizer."
Harris says he gets a lot of calls from farmers about banding P and K.
"Growers want to know if they can reduce their rates by banding P and K. There are no advantages to banding P and K once your levels are medium to high. There are made-to-band fertilizers, but, hopefully, they're not being sold within the context that you can reduce your rates. If you're at medium to high, broadcasting should be just as good."
Starter fertilizers, he says, are another situation when it comes to banding. Banding a starter fertilizer 2 inches to the side and 2 inches below the seed increases the chances of roots penetrating the fertilizer band and taking up needed nitrogen and phosphorus.
Deduct starter fertilizer
Growers should deduct the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus used in a starter fertilizer from the total nitrogen and phosphorus needed for the season, says Harris. However, total phosphate requirements of the corn crop often can be supplied in the starter fertilizer. Since nutrients applied in starter fertilizers are a part of the total fertilizer program, using this recommended practice is not very costly.
"We do not recommend putting anything in the furrow," he says. "There are products that are recommended for putting in the furrow, but they make me nervous at this point. We'll continue to look at them."
As for poultry litter applied as fertilizer, it's important to know the amounts of nutrients contained in the manure prior to making a decision to use it as your main source of phosphorus and potassium, says Harris.
"The majority of the nutrients contained in the manure are readily available in the season. If you are using poultry litter, in general, you should be able to use about 65 percent of the nitrogen and 80 percent of the phosphorus and potassium contained in the litter the first year."
For example, if your analysis is 50-50-50 per ton, and you apply 2 tons per acre, then credit your fertility program 65 pounds of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium the first year. At least 25 percent of the nitrogen should be available within the first two to three weeks after application and the remainder throughout the season.
"I like to see it put on preplant and then still side-dress with commercial nitrogen," he says.
Other nitrogen materials are available that are known as enhanced efficiency (EE) fertilizers, says Harris, and these are being tested.
"I had this conclusion two years ago, and I still stand by it. They are not silver bullets. Some will play a role, depending on the product and how we use them. We still need to further test them. At this point, one that is working pretty well is Agrotain, which is a urease inhibitor. Where I think a urease inhibitor really comes into play is when dry urea, a 46-percent nitrogen material, is used in a dryland, strip-till situation."

War, racism and economic insustice by Fidel Castro, Ocean Press, 2002
Reviewed by John Pateman
These two books should be read together because they form two side of a seamless story. Che focuses on theory while Fidel talks about practice. Che is historical (1965 speech, 1965 letter, 1966 speech) while Fidel is contemporary (speeches made between September 2000 and November 2001). Yet, despite these differences, the political analysis and solutions offered to social and economic problems are the same. When Che and Fidel worked together in the early years of the Cuban Revolution they must have been a formidable team. For 6 years they established the roots of the Revolution and then, in 1965, Che decided to leave Cuba and export the Revolution to other countries, while Fidel stayed in Cuba to deepen and broaden the Revolution, a process which he continues to lead to this day.
Che's speech to the Afro-Asian conference in Algeria in February 1965 focuses on the need to integrate the struggle for national liberation with socialist ideas. The importance of economic planning is emphasised. Che's letter on "Socialism and Man in Cuba", published in March 1965, stresses that "there is nothing that can educate a person…like living through a revolution". For Che, socialism could not exist if economics was not combined with social and political consciousness. Without an awareness of rights and duties, it would be impossible to construct a new society. Back in 1965 Che was already warning of the dangers of neo-liberalism and globalisation.
Che's message to The Tricontinetal Conference of Solidarity ewith the People of Asia, Africa and Latin America, which took place in Cuba in January 1966, was "Create Two, Three, Many Vietnams". The content of Che's speech, especially his remarks about the crisis in the Middle East and Israel, is surprisingly relevant today. The idea of internationalism on a global scale outlined by Che in his message represents a synthesis of this thought and political praxis. Che recognised that the national bourgeoisie was incapable of standing up to imperialism. Under these circumstances the only way to liberation would be through prolonged peoples war. This book is published in association with the Che Guevara Studies Centre in Havana, established to promote, both inside and outside of Cuba, the thought, life and works of Comandante Che Guevara, recognising the extraordinary significance of his theory, praxis, and ethical legacy – and their validity and timelessness in today's globalised world..
"War, racism and economic injustice" is a sharp, brief selection of recent speeches and interviews with Fidel Castro dating from June 2000 to November 2001. Among them are speeches given in Venezuela, Panama, Cuba, the United States and South Africa. Also included are interventions in the Millenium Summit held at the United Nations in 2000 and a landmark speech to the Racism conference held in Durban, South Africa, in August 2001. Fidel presents a damning indictment of the present world economic and political order. The final two items are speeches given by Fidel on September 22 and November 2 2001 in which he calls on the world to unite against both terrorism and war. This book is published in association with Editora Politica of Havana. And is a continuation of a previous editorial project published in 2000 as "Capitalism in Crisis – globalisation and world politics today", also by Fidel Castro and published by Ocean Press. This is an essential read as well. For more information about Ocean books visit their website at www.oceanbooks.com.au or contact Global Book Marketing at firstname.lastname@example.com

Yeah!! Awesome !!! I can't wait.
One thing that seems to be kind of a waste, IMO, is the 2 different staff sizes that she comes with. Honestly, a staff with one length would have been enough. The extra one that she won't be displayed with will just go in a box somewhere. I would think they could come up with a more exciting extra accessory than that - perhaps a spell-conjured flame in her hand like the 200x staction or something.
I for one think she looks amazing! I may be in the minority here, but I love that they went with the classic look first, instead of the 200x look. Can't wait for April!!
I wish I had a MOC Evil-Lyn on hand - I would certainly have shared the back of the card ASAP!!

I never believed that I'd say this, but she looks cheap. I can't believe I'm concidering skipping a main female - character. In my eyes she looks kinda awful. Very akward in most poses and the staves just look like something that came from a dollar store.
I really hoped I'd liker her, but my initial reaction is that I don't.

Screeech looks friggin sweet!!! I can't wait to get Zoar's pearch and armor. Maybe they'll be packed in with Orko or weapons pack.
She looks great! I wished she had a cape tho.
I'll display her with the small wand.
A cape definitely would have been great...
She looks awesome! Thanks for the link! I'm loving the short wand the best! Screech looks amazing! Love his armor!!
What's with these websites AND Mattel for that matter…not knowing how to pose these figures in better poses??? That's my only complaint…not about the figure proper. Just the lack of imagination regarding the poses or lack there of, that she's put in.
200X fan? Classic fan? What does that mean? I'm a MotU fan!!!
Go ahead and lynch me but 200X Evil-Lyn is light years more appealing. Teela looked great but this one is kinda, eh ... unflattering. She looks like a frump. Not much of a bother though, the character isn't a favorite but this'll do, I suppose.
She looks awesome!

Earl Owensby Studios Inc., producer of dozens of feature films over the past four decades, faces foreclosure due to more than $40,000 in unpaid property taxes.
SHELBY � Earl Owensby Studios Inc., producer of dozens of feature films over the past four decades, faces foreclosure due to more than $40,000 in unpaid property taxes.
Owensby and his studio company owe thousands in unpaid taxes dating back to 2010 on a 65-acre lot off Old Boiling Springs Road and several thousand more in delinquent taxes dating back to 2011 on a nearby two-acre lot, according to county tax records.
�We just haven�t paid them yet,� Owensby told The Star on Wednesday. �We�re talking with (the county) and we will settle this.�
Owensby�s studio property has not yet been foreclosed, but the foreclosure process is under way, according to the county tax office.
�At this point, there�s nothing docketed,� said Kimberly Mullinax, paralegal for the Cleveland County tax office. �(Owensby�s) got every intent to pay it, and I�m confident he will.�
Mullinax said the process for completing a foreclosure case � which includes more than 30 steps, according to county documents � takes about six months, giving Owensby time to pay the delinquent tax money.
County authorities have visited the property to post a notice of docketing tax foreclosure judgment, which indicates the foreclosure process is under way.
If the delinquent tax money is not paid by March 1, the foreclosure process will continue with the filing of a judgment for delinquent taxes with the Cleveland County Clerk of Court�s Office, according to county documents.
If the taxes still are not paid 90 days after that filing, officials will request the authority from the clerk�s office to execute the foreclosure sale process.
�We�ll get it taken care of a little bit at a time,� Owensby said. �No way in the world am I going through a foreclosure.�
Owensby said he�s still working to attract film projects and produce movies on the property off Old Boiling Springs Road, where he�s worked since 1973.
Owensby Studios� website lists three films � �Wolfman 2,� �Back to Buckstone Mountain� and �Stars In My Crown� � as current projects.

Homemade pizza is high on my list of weeknight meals because it's easy (even if you make your own dough), and so much cheaper than even a frozen pizza. That said, it was a frozen pizza that inspired me to try this. One of our favorites is store brand Sweet & Spicy - Italian sausage with sweet bell peppers.
Keys to good pizza? I hate to say it, but Papa John's is right: Better ingredients, better pizza. If you can avoid doing so, please don't skimp on the cheese! Whole milk mozerella is all we use in our house. Every store, I think, carries some form of whole milk moz, usually in the deli department. Pizza stone - if you don't have one, get one. They're cheap and, unless you manage to crack one, will last forever. I've had mine for more than a decade. It's blackened from regular use - in other words, it's very well seasoned. :)
On with the recipe:
The dough (this is not an original by me... it's out of 365 Easy Italian Recipes - a good cookbook to have on hand):
1 cup warm water (divided)
1/4 tsp sugar
1 envelop (or 2.25 tsp) dry yeast
3 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 TBSP olive oil
1. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup warm water with sugar and yeast. Let stand in a warm place for 10-12 minutes, or until good and bubbly. The yeast will give off a yeasty smell.
2. In another bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the flour, and add proofed yeast, remaining warm water (TIP: Don't pull all your warm water at once... if you do the 3/4 will get cold while the yeast is proofing) and olive oil. Mix flour and liquid together until you form a dough that cleans the sides of the bowl.
3. Lightly flour a work surface, and turn dough onto that. Knead with the heel of your hand 5-8 minutes, turning and folding the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic (trust me, you'll know it when you feel it). Put dough into a clean bowl and let rise, covered with a towel, in a warm place (75-80 degrees), 1-2 hours, or until doubled in bulk.
4. At this point, punch dough down and kneed one minute. Divide the dough in half. Make pizza with both, or make pizza with one half and freeze the other. In our house, I just make two because the first pizza disappears while the second is in the oven.
On to the pizza!
Here's where it becomes less about recipes and specific amounts. This is very much a loose guideline - pizza's all about what you like and how much of something you want on it. Want more cheese? Shred more. Want less? You get the idea. Put stuff on in whatever order you like (some people like toppings UNDER the cheese, some over). But here's how I make mine:
1 pound shredded moz (1/2 pound for each pizza. Yeah, you heard me.)
1/2 pint pizza sauce (roughly 1/2 cup on each pizza, because we don't like real saucy pizza)
1 chopped green bell pepper
1 chopped red bell pepper
1/2 pound browned Italian sausage, crumbled (it won't look like it's enough, but trust me... 1/4 cup per pizza is plenty)
1 chopped sweet onion
Parmesan cheese
Garlic powder
I roll out the dough and then press our pizza plate on it to get the pizza circle (it fits perfectly on the stone this way!). Spoon the sauce onto the dough. Put a little less than half of the cheese on top of the sauce. Sprinkle 1/2 of the sausage around. Put about half of the peppers and onion on. Take another handful of cheese and sprinkle on top.
I do a twisty edge on my pizza. It's pretty and very easy to do (and another thing done so that it will fit on the stone). Pick a starting point and roll in a bit of the overhang, pinch, go down about 1/2" or so, roll/fold and pinch again. Repeat until you've gone full circle.
Sprinkle garlic powder around the edge of the crust (and shake some on the pizza itself if you like). Sprinkle parmesan (really, I don't measure this one) across pizza top.
Bake at 450 for ~15 minutes on the center or top rack in your oven, or until the cheeses start to brown and bubble.

Jorge Capestany, manager of the DeWitt Tennis Center at Hope College, is the featured instructor in three episodes premiering on the Tennis Channel through "On Court with USPTA," the cable television show produced by the United States Professional Tennis Association.
Capestany, who is a USPTA Master Professional, teaches how to counter opponents' strategies in "How to Beat the Moonballer," scheduled for Saturday, May 12, at noon, and "How to Beat the Aggressive Baseliner," scheduled for Saturday, May 19, at noon. The third episode, "Secrets to Better Doubles," will be shown in November.
The three episodes are among the eight featuring professionals selected from across USPTA's membership that the association is producing for the Tennis Channel for 2012, four total in the spring and four in the fall. The USPTA has more than 15,000 members worldwide.
The content will share with a national audience instruction that young area players receive at the Hope College Tennis Academy every day during the summer. The episodes are based on Capestany's book "Strategy—How to beat every style of player." He noted that the same emphasis on how to apply skill effectively is a hallmark of the college's annual nine-week Tennis Academy, which Capestany leads.
"We're coaching pretty high-level players and pretty high-level content," Capestany said. "A lot of what they'll see in the shows is what we'll be doing with the kids on the court this summer."
All three programs were filmed in March at the Houston, Texas, headquarters of the USPTA. In addition to Capestany, they include two of his former student players: Adam Ford, who is now the head pro at the DeWitt Tennis Center, and Tony Tran, who works as a teaching pro in Grand Rapids.
The May 12 episode, "How to Beat the Moonballer," focuses on countering opponents who deliver high-arcing balls, presenting a variety of tactics that players can employ to disrupt the technique and covering topics including "serve and volley," "chip and charge," "drop shot," "hold your ground," "using slice" and "sneak attack." The May 19 episode, "How to Beat the Aggressive Baseliner," explores how to handle an opponent that attacks with power and pace, demonstrating tactics to stall and frustrate the aggression, covering topics including "moonballing," "increasing footwork," "isolating the weakness," "coming to the net more," "mixing up the pace," "serving to the body" and "using more slice." The November episode is still in production and will feature secrets to better doubles play ranging from high-percentage shot selection to court positioning for better doubles results.
Manager of the six-court DeWitt Tennis Center since the fall of 2003, Capestany is a 30-year veteran of the tennis industry. He is one of only 10 people world-wide that is a Master Professional with both the USPTA and the Professional Tennis Registry (PTR).
In August, he will be inducted into the 2012 Hall of Fame for the Midwest Division of the USPTA, and in February he was named the PTR Member of the Year by "Racquet Sports Industry" magazine. The Midwest Division of the USPTA has honored him multiple other times through the years, including twice as "Midwest Professional of the Year," twice as "Facility Manager of the Year" and with its "Outstanding Education of the Year" award. He has also been named the "Michigan Pro of the Year" six times by either USPTA or PTR.
He has been published in several industry publications and has been a frequent speaker at professional conferences, and among other activities serves as a master trainer on the TIA's Cardio Tennis speakers' team, as a USTA Recreational Coaches Workshop national trainer and as a member of the Wilson speakers' team. He is also the founder of www.tennisdrills.tv, a video-based site with more than 900 tennis drills and tips that has more than 700 subscribers from around the world.
Capestany has coached hundreds of ranked juniors, including three national champions. In his career, at Hope and previously, his programs have developed more than 180 high school state champions in Michigan.
The college's Tennis Academy provides instruction according to skill level for players from kindergarten through college-age, and this year will run from Monday, June 11, through Friday, Aug. 10. The younger players, those in kindergarten through sixth grade, participate in a "Quickstart Tennis Academy" at the college's DeWitt Tennis Center, which in 2010 was named "Public Facility of the Year" by the PTR. The seventh-grade through college-age students this year will be instructed, during daytime and/or evening programs, at the college's new Vande Poel-Heeringa Stadium Courts, a 12-court facility east of Holland Municipal Stadium scheduled for completion this summer. Additional information about the Tennis Academy is available online at www.hope.edu/resources/tennis/tennisacademy/
Founded in 1927, USPTA strives to raise the standards of the tennis profession while promoting greater awareness of the sport. USPTA offers 70 professional benefits to its members, including certification and professional development.
The USPTA became the first tennis-teaching organization ever to produce and air an educational television series on playing and teaching tennis on the Tennis Channel in 2003. Since then, more than 80 shows have been produced that provide instruction about technique, strategy and other facets of the game. Additional information about "On Court with USPTA," including show times and how to purchase DVDs of any of the episodes, is available online at www.oncourtwithuspta.com.
