Matt, the detail in those is insane.
The Achilles Heel is the terrible Chromatic Abberation in the 70mm (+others?) at wider apertures.try it on a sunny day at F2.5-3.5 and see what there is around light:dark edges. great rings of red and green fringing.Its one of the worst lenses in digital MF for this. I could list other reasons why I didn't buy it, but this is a major one, and makes it near unusable with wide apertures.Leica out did themselves: too complicated a lens design with multiple aspheric surfaces, creates problems. Leica need to bring out a short barrel 70mm, smaller, lighter, cheaper, with ~f3.5 aperture, and concentrate on fixing the CA.
my expert friend (and he won a MacArthur Genius award for this kind of thing) says that only symmetrical designs are easily fixed with RAW CA tool. Asymmetric not so good.and anyways, didn't Leica boast that their lens don't need any post production fixing - that it was a sign of poor design?!
You are very lucky if that is the case.However I am certainly not the only one to notice this. Two high end digital camera stores I know spotted it in their testing, and try the report at Digilloyds DAP site for more info (paid site). If you are happy/lucky with your camera and lens, then great - end of story.
maybe you had a duff lens.
OK... After some extreme pixel peeping, I found only one occurrence of any noticeable fringing and have attached an example. The first attachment is a 100% crop of the second attachment and shows the only area of fringe I found any any of the test images. The are is harshly backlit and a dark color surface, so it's the ideal extreme contrast to lead to problems. For what it's worth, Lightroom's Defringe > Highlight Edges tool virtually eliminated what is visible here.I'd venture to say the S2 (at least the copy I tested) is very good at controlling fringing, especially as the subject's coat shows no fringes, nor any of the extreme highlights in the background. It's not an ideal shot to demonstrate S2 image quality, as it was a hasty capture and is not ideally sharp, exposed, etc. It is, though, the only image I found with any noticeable fringing. I'd certainly want to see further tests in more high-contrast lighting, like the backlit tree mentioned in an above post... can anyone share examples of problematic images?Thanks for the question... I hope that helps!~Matt
Well, the images look very good, but I don't think that the 100% crops look any better than similar 100% crops from my CFV-39 and the 80mm Planar. Perhaps it's just more about the 'look' of 40MP MF files in general.
maybe.Based on the few samples I've seen from the S2 and the 70mm lens my impression is it is much better wide open and at close and mid distances than the 80 Planar. Whereas almost any shot I've seen from the S2/70mm at wide distances and stopped down was quite soft at the edges (center still very sharp)... I think here the Planar is even better. Maybe the 70mm is somehow optimzied for close and mid distances...?Again... these are just impressions based on few samples of the 70mm available on the web and not backed up by own experience.
Besides, if you're working in B&W, like a real man, it hardly matters.

A tentative deal has been struck between the Philadelphia School District and its blue-collar workers' union, officials said late Wednesday night.
The deal - which still must be ratified - appears to avert layoffs and the privatization of 2,700 jobs of members of 32BJ, Local 1201 - bus aides, mechanics, cleaners, building engineers and other workers.
Union officials confirmed the deal, but said they would release no specifics, including the number of layoffs averted, until members saw the terms.
The potential agreement comes after months of negotiations and public protests over the possible layoffs. About 500 employees would have lost their jobs on July 15, with the rest laid off by the end of the year.
Earlier, union leaders had said they put at least $20 million in concessions on the table.
"Under the four-year agreement that saves thousands of jobs, blue-collar workers will make direct contributions to keep schools open and to help the district solve budgetary problems," officials said in a statement.
Many of the union's members earn under $30,000 annually, and some earn under $20,000 a year.
Members will vote on the contract on July 20.
The SRC would then have to formally approve it.
"This agreement will help keep public schools open, provide a clean and safe learning environment for our kids and saves jobs for thousands of hard-working men and women," union chief George Ricchezza said in the statement.
The cash-strapped school district — its deficit for 2012-13 could be as much as $282 million — has said it needed at least $50 million in savings from "modernizing" transportation, custodial and maintenance services. It had solicited bids to see how much private companies would charge to perform the work.
But some members of City Council also made it clear that they wanted the district to come to an agreement with 32BJ, and part of the $40 million in new city money Council had agreed to give the district comes with strings attached.
Union leaders had also said they were worried by the news, first reported in The Inquirer, that the School Reform Commission was lobbying in Harrisburg for legislation that would give it the absolute right to cancel union contracts and impose terms on workers.
Those lobbying efforts stopped when members of the Philadelphia Democratic House delegration, angry that they were kept in the dark, confronted the SRC.

IMEC brings back ultrawideband
Ultrawideband is back. The IMEC research institute will describe and demonstrate early next year a chip set using the technology that sunk a handful of startups a few years ago. UWB rode up and down the hype curve in the past decade as Intel and others tried to harness it as the transport for wireless USB, outfitted with the WiMedia air interface for 100 Mbit/second data rates.
Researchers here are taking a different twist on the technology, using an air interface borrowed from the military initially to serve consumer devices for audio streaming. "There is no radio that serves that app sufficiently today," said Kathleen Philips, program manager for the work at IMEC.
At ISSCC 2012, the team will present a paper on a 90nm impulse-response UWB chip set carrying a Mbit/second over 6 to 10 GHz frequencies while consuming just 6 milliwatts. The chip fills a gap between Wi-Fi which can consume as much as 20 times that power and Bluetooth and Zigbee, limited to a fraction of the throughput.
Rather than use a continuous modulation wave, the chip set adopts the impulse-response radio techniques tested in military applications. It allows a relatively simple design with chips that can be turned off between data blasts, saving power. The team chose the 6-10 GHz bands because they are available worldwide and open the door to relatively small antennas that do not need antenna filters.
The chip set currently includes a 1.6 x 1.6 mm receiver front end, an ADC and a baseband implemented as an FPGA that is about to be taped out as an ASIC. Imec partners in the project--including NXP and Panasonic--may be interested in taking the next step, integrating the three chips into one.
The design can scale to support data rates from a few 100 Kbits/s to 27 Mbits/s, said Philips. Such a chip could serve markets of nine million hearing aids, 200 million MP3 players and 10 million Bluetooth headsets sold a year. It could power an MP3 player or headset for more than 17 or 33 hours respectively. That compares to three and 13 hours for Bluetooth, Philips said. "We also offer better audio quality and better interference robustness-- this is an important market that needs a revolution," said Philips.
Philips started the work as her doctoral thesis in 2002, leading to an ISSCC paper in 2007. A second-generation design in 2010 used 3-5 GHz spectrum. By 2013, the team aims to demo the chip set powering location-based apps. She claims it can identify a location within six centimeters in line-of-sight conditions or 30 cm without it.

In his CNN column on race and gun violence, David Frum quotes a previous post of mine (about the demographics of homicide in Baton Rouge) and says:
"What can we learn from these statistics? That murder in Baton Rouge is almost entirely about young black men from the poor part of town killing other young black men from the poor part of town. It's mostly a matter of thugs killing thugs."
If you look at the world that way, gun control must seem a pointless diversion from the real problem: not guns, but one particular group of gun owners. Somebody else's problem. But life is not so neatly separated.
Guns offer equal opportunity tragedies. More than 8,000 white Americans had to be treated for nonfatal gun injuries in 2008. Eighty percent of those who commit suicide with a gun are white males. The gun that the suburban family buys to protect itself from "thugs killing thugs" ends up killing its own: One important new study finds that a gun kept in the house is 43 times more likelyto kill a household member than to be used in self-defense.
Thugs killing thugs? Maybe. But many of those seeming thugs are carrying guns for the same reason that people who consider themselves respectable carry them : in a futile quest to protect themselves with greater firepower. One person can find safety that way. But if two people carry firearms, a confrontation that might otherwise have ended in words or blows ends instead with one man dead, and the other man on his way to prison for life.
OK, but my blog postings on the topic — the first one here, and the subsequent one David quotes here — were not about gun control, not remotely. It began with a news story about a black flash mob shutting down a local mall, and menacing a second nearby mall, and became a discussion about the connection between violent crime and young black males in Baton Rouge. The subsequent discussion, in the combox thread of that post and subsequent posts, had to do with race, crime, and culture, and the fact that violent crime (especially homicide) is almost entirely committed by young black men, against young black men. According to crime stats for 2012, most of the murders in Baton Rouge were young black men with criminal records, often involving drugs, killing people like themselves.
Frum writes:
The price of redefining gun violence as an issue pertaining only to "those people" — of casting and recasting the gun statistics to make them less grisly if only "those people" are toted under some different heading in some different ledger — the price of that redefinition is to lose our ability to think about the problem at all.
Wait, what? Frum seems to have read my post as saying that somehow we shouldn't care if young black thugs are killing young black thugs. That's not what my column says at all. I didn't address gun control in this blog post or its predecessor, but rather crime, demographics, and geography. The "thugs killing thugs" point was to say that if you are a) not black, b) not male, c) not young, d) not a resident of a poor neighborhood, and e) not involved in crime, you stand an excellent chance of not being one of Baton Rouge's murder victims. You can be foursquare in favor of gun control, or resolutely against gun control, and still agree (or disagree) with the points made in my blogs.
I am troubled that readers of David's column might think that I said, in effect, "Oh, it's just black criminals shooting black criminals, who cares." That's not it at all. Rather, I was trying to say that to focus only on the racial demographics of homicide in Baton Rouge is to miss some important context that help you evaluate whether or not you are safe in certain parts of the city, e.g., the shopping mall in south Baton Rouge. Which was the genesis of the discussion on those threads.
I think it's fair to ask why people who can and do use guns responsibly should have to surrender some of their liberties because of people who don't use guns safely. I think it's also fair to ask why people who don't have an apparent need to buy weapons easily should enjoy the liberty to do so when that liberty causes such destruction in other communities. Both are reasonable questions. Neither has much to do with the discussion here from which David quotes in his pro-gun control piece.

Since he took over as president and chief executive officer of Old Sturbridge Village in 2007, James E. Donahue has probably heard this question the most: "When are you going to do something with the Oliver Wight building and the Lodges complex?"
Now he has an answer.
"We expect it will open the first weekend in June," Mr. Donahue said last week.
While renovating the 1789 Oliver Wight house, which sits on its original site facing Route 20, has been on the radar screen of Old Sturbridge Village board members for some time, their focus has been on the living history museum.
"We were focused here, on the museum and on rebuilding our audience," Mr. Donahue explained.
The house is near the guest lodges alongside Route 20 and is separate from the Oliver Wight Tavern, which is closer to the living history museum's entrance.
When Mr. Donahue took over, Old Sturbridge Village was struggling with a decreasing number of visitors. Since then numbers have grown and the museum has more members, as well.
With OSV facing a $4 million deficit, the Lodges, built in the 1960s, and the Wight house were closed in 2005, as was the Oliver Wight Tavern that had been built in 2000 but had been losing money. The tavern reopened in 2007, but the Lodges have been vacant since the town offices moved back to Town Hall.
In 2009, the town leased space in the Lodges for temporary town offices while the Town Hall was renovated.
Mr. Donahue is optimistic about the museum's future, but he and the trustees weren't feeling secure enough to devote the money needed to the Oliver Wight house at the time.Then a trustee from New York stepped up and offered to fund the entire project — including any losses in the first two years of operation.
Robert W. Reeder and his wife, Lorraine, of Bedford, N.Y., had visited the Lodges with their family and said the place became part of their "family history."
Mrs. Reeder remembered warmly a romantic stay she and her husband had at the Oliver Wight house back in 1988, during their second trip to Old Sturbridge Village.
"The Oliver Wight house holds a very special place in Bob's and my hearts," she said.
Trustees had commissioned a study of the site before receiving the Reeders' offer. The study showed that renovations would be costly, with an estimate of just under $700,000, and it projected losses for up to two years as the lodges and house were put back into business.
Mr. Reeder agreed to cover losses up to $200,000, and Mr. Donahue said that has trustees working hard to try to stave off any losses at all.
For many visitors to Old Sturbridge Village, the Lodges evoke warm memories. They were built in the 1950s and operated as Liberty Cap Motel back in 1962, and folks from out of the area often spent a few days at the Lodges while visiting the museum and other area attractions.
Mr. Donahue said a design committee has been working to keep the old feel of those buildings while offering amenities that today's travelers might require.
"Things like television and Internet."
The trustees and Mr. Donahue are hoping the Lodges and renovated Oliver Wight house, which features original wall murals dating back to the 1830s, will encourage more brides to choose Old Sturbridge Village as the site for their weddings.
Mr. Donahue said having lodging available will also help increase attendance at evening events, encourage families to spend time in Sturbridge while children attend special programs, and offer a place for summer interns and visiting scholars to stay.
"We're confident that it can be profitable," Mr. Donahue said. "And we will reach back out to people who might have traveled here from New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania."
The Lodges and Oliver Wight house wouldn't compete with local motels, but would offer a different experience, which might include some facets of a museum exhibit being displayed there, or events such as an afternoon tea.

Coulee Fall Festival offers something new Saturday
A variety of activities this Saturday will make up the "Coulee Fall Festival," including hay rides, kids' karaoke, a community-wide yard sale and a pet show, all just for fun.
The Coulee Fall Festival replaces the former Moonlite Madness celebration held later in October.
Get decked out, and dress up your pet, for a pet show at the skateboard park. The event begins at 10 a.m. and should be fun for both you and your pet. Remember to bring your leash. There are no restrictions on what kind of pet you bring.
Bob Valen, who has been working on the pet part of the community celebration, said that there would be certificates for winners of the event. "And we may even have a prize or two," he added.
There's an all-day yard sale set for North Dam Park and Event Center. Set-up time begins at 7 a.m. and the community-wide yard sale goes from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. It costs $5 for a 10-foot by 10-foot space. You'll need to bring your own table.
From noon until 4 p.m. there will be an open mike karaoke for kids, sponsored by Coulee Medical Center at the concert venue, also at North Dam Park.
It's a great opportunity for kids to showcase their talents. There's no guarantee that there will be Hollywood scouts on hand, but it should be great fun.
Another fun event will be hay rides out of North Dam Park. They begin right after the pet show.
NCNB staff will be selling candy and gathering food and cash donations with proceeds going to the Care and Share Food Bank. And the Lions Club will take donations for hot cider, and also collect glasses and hearing aids for some of their community programs, both at North Dam Park.
The class of 2016 will sell cotton candy and drinks, Coulee Hardware will have its espresso cart there and the Tropical Pig will have its food cart at the park.
Flo's will sell 50-cent coffee to go.
Other groups plan food and treats for sale at the park.
The Eagles Lodge features its steak night Saturday, and Banks Lake Golf Course will hold a tournament at its 18-hole course Saturday.
One of the feature events will be put on by the Planet Earth Players, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights beginning at 7:30 p.m. at the Grand Theatre on Grand Coulee's Main Street.
That event is called a "Short History of Western Music with a Salute to our Hero Gene Autry."
Featured singers of the tunes Autry sang prior to 1946 are Becky Kerns, Judy Curtis, Jamie Holeman and Darlene Morava.
Prices for those performances will be $5 a ticket.
There's something for every age at the "Coulee Fall Festival."

Ben Franklin: Mr. Dickinson I'm surprised at you, a rebellion is always legal in the first person, such as "our rebellion." It is only in the third person – "their rebellion" – that it becomes illegal.
1776 1972
We've been hearing all about how it's necessary to get dangerous weapons away from fringe extremists. Every day MSNBC has been pummeling the 4 million members of the NRA and Morning "565k viewers" Joe has calling them fringe extremists.
I can certainly understand their worry. If you take a group of political extremists who fanatically believe in their cause and the evil of their enemies it doesn't take much for them to device to try to slaughter recently re-elected executive who they consider a tyrant.
If the NRA isn't stopped I'm sure it's only a matter of time until we see stories like this on MSNBC:
The man, Kvon R. Smith, had reportedly used Facebook to threaten to do harm at the Capitol. Law enforcement was ready for him and arrested him as he attempted to enter the building. Smith then reportedly claimed to have a Molotov cocktail in his backpack. Police evacuated portions of the capitol building and a bomb squad reportedly arrived and handled the backpack. Police did not say whether or not the backpack contained the explosive device the man allegedly claimed it did.
And then discover that such a fellow has been on twitter talking politics .
Why I wouldn't be surprised if such a guy even made videos showing his Molotov cocktails on facebook.
And when it happens we'll demand strong statements from the right, like this:
Political violence is terrible and we must vigorously condemn it where ever we even suspect it; thus is the rule for all those violent-minded Tea Partiers. We must make it clear to them that political violence is unacceptable. And those who don't make that clear — opinion leaders on the right, for example, who don't condemn the idea of political violence upon command — are aiding and abetting the violence, encouraging it through their silence, their tacit approval.
The public can be sure that the good folks at MSNBC in general and Morning Joe in particular will lead with the story, decry those who promote such political violence and vigorously question those who might be the political allies to make sure they feel the heat for supporting and encouraging such unstable people ready to commit murder for a cause.
Unless of course like Tuesday the person is an occupied, his target is Republican Scott Walker and his political persuasion is support of the left and Barack Obama.
If that's the case then MSNBC and Morning Joe will react thus:
Oh just a note. Morning Joe started 54 minutes ago. Not a word about this yet…
…nothing to see here, move along.

378 autographed drawings by a group of 110 internationally recognized architects as a tribute to Piero Portaluppi, all proceeds go to Villa Necchi Campiglio.
On May 14th Moleskine took part in the auction of the first 78 notebooks drawn by the architects. The proceed of the auction will go towards Villa Necchi's own upkeep.
Moleskine bidded and bought the notebook sketched by the chilean architect Felipe Assadi.
Milan, April 18th - May 10th, 2009
Villa Necchi Campiglio, via Mozart 14
Triennale Bovisa, via Lambruschini 31
Abitare, via Ventura 5
Architects have always loved drawings: pencils, felt-tips (Renzo Piano's green one is his hallmark) and pastels are still the ideal instruments for getting early ideas down on paper.
The enthusiasm for drawing has no geographical or personal limits: despite of popoular belief, during the creative stage the computer always comes off defeated, as explained in the project, promoted by FAI (Italian Fund for the Environment), revealingly titled "The Hand of The Architect", as a tribute to Piero Portaluppi, the Milanese architect who designed Villa Necchi Campiglio (1932).
Beautifully restored by FAI, Villa Necchi it is now open to the public and will provide one of the three venues for the exhibition itself and the auctioning of the exhibits (the proceed of the auction it hosts will go towards its own upkeep).
Among the architects participating: Felipe Assadi, Gae Aulenti, Mario Botta, Aldo Cibic, Massimiliano Fuksas (also participating in Detour New York, 2007), Michael Graves (also participating in Detour New York, 2007, and A Week in your Life, 2009), Vittorio Gregotti, Zaha Hadid, Alessandro Mendini, Renzo Piano (also participating in Detour New York, 2007), Paolo Portoghesi, Matteo Thun.
See the gallery
Moleskine has designed the catalogue in close collaboration with Abitare/Segesta.
In a scenario where recent releases on the topic of architectural sketches are totally absent, the undeniable contribution of this catalogue and its theoretical content make a point on the fundamental connection between creativity, project and design.
The release of the catalogue overlaps the launch of the new Moleskine Folio collection in A4 and A3 formats.
The catalog (288 pages) is accompanied by a 120 blank page Cahier to be sketched through and through.

Audio Technica at The GRAMMY's for 14 years
Audio Technica at The GRAMMY's for 14 years
If you're looking for microphones used by some of the world's biggest current artists, Audio-Technica are the right direction
For the 14th year, Audio-Technia maintained its status as the hallmark of superior sound at the GRAMMY awards show for both the live show and broadcast. Supplying over 150 of its acclaimed microphones, including an impressive array of hand-wired mics and Artist Elite 5000 Series UHF Wireless Systems. This year especially, the AT4050ST Stereo Condenser Microphones have come to favor the mixers because of their rich stereo drum overhead sound.
The Performances
Artists performing throughout the evening who used Audio Technica's Artist Elite 5000 Series included Bruno Mars, B.o.B and Janelle Monae, who shared the stange to perform a medley of their recent hits; Esperanza Spaulding, who played with the 2011 GRAMMY Jazz Band; and Bob Dylan. Dylan shared the stage with folk rock up-and-comers, Avett Brothers and Mumford and Sons, who used the hard-wired AE5400s, along with Barbara Streisand who delivered a breathtaking performance of "Evergreen".
The backline mic complement of A-T wired microphones included additional AE5400s for backing vocals, horns and rotary speaker cabinets (high and low); ATM350 cardioid condenser clip-on microphone for strings; AE5100 cardioid condenser microphone for hi-hat and ride: AT4040 stereo condenser microphone for overheads; and AT4080 phantom-powered bi-directional ribbon microphones and AT4050 multi-pattern condenser microphone for guitar cabinets.
The Pro's
FOH engineer at the GRAMMY's, Ron Reaves stated,
"It's always a pleasure to see Audio-Technica's team here, to provide both microphones and on-site support. We've been using A-T on the show as long as I have been FOH, and most notably the new AT4050ST has proven itself as a great stereo overhead mic. It's the kind of forward thinking product development that kees Audio-Technica as one of the premier microphone manufacturers."
Mark Linett, who has a rich background in both studio and live engineering and has worked with artists such as Brian Wilson and The Red Hot Chili Peppers told Audio Technica that,
"...this is the second year I've been part of the GRAMMY's and I'm glad that Audio-Technica is an intricate part of the show, supplying product and on-site support. Audio-Technica products have definite won me over, I have great admiration for the extensive product line, and I can definitely hear the difference when using their wired and wireless microphones."

$345, massimodutti.com
3. Laser Cut
The genius thing about this top is it has laser cut outs in the fabric, which means it's airy for those super-hot days, but also on trend in the fashion world. Tuck it into a cotton skirt, add some statement jewels, and you're all set!

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Gov. Jerry Brown is being treated for early stage prostate cancer but will stay on the job throughout his nearly four-week treatment, his office said Wednesday, calling the typically energetic 74-year-old chief executive's prognosis "excellent."
Brown's office gave few details about his treatment or how Brown was found to be suffering from the second-most common cancer to afflict men, but said in a statement that he would undergo conventional radiotherapy until the week of Jan. 7 for what it called a "localized" cancer.
The three-term governor's "prognosis is excellent, and there are not expected to be any significant side effects," University of California, San Francisco oncologist Eric Small said in the statement. Small is Brown's oncologist.
Brown's spokesman Gil Duran declined further comment.
Localized prostate cancer means "the tumor is still contained within the prostate," said Dr. Mark Litwin, chairman of the UCLA Department of Urology, who is not involved in Brown's care. "Of course, that's what you want because you can treat it much more effectively."
For early stage prostate cancer, the typical radiation treatment is five days a week for four to five weeks, said Dr. Ralph de Vere White, urological oncologist and director of the University of California, Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center in Sacramento. Other oncologists said the treatments can sometimes last up to nine weeks.
Not all men who are diagnosed with the disease choose to undergo treatment, and doctors advise patients to consider the risks. Those who undergo radiation are typically subjected to a series of high-intensity beams of radiation aimed directly at the prostate, a procedure similar to undergoing an X-ray that can take less than half an hour.
De Vere White, who is not involved in Brown's case but said given the governor's apparent good health, it would be an easy decision to do the radiation treatment.
If you are healthy, as the governor appears to be, "and you are looking out at 10 years, then you go for a treatment that is going to have in excess of a 97 percent cure rate," he said. "It really should have very minimal side effects, should have minimal to no interference with his life, and kind of represents the reason why people advocate for finding this disease early."
It is the governor's second experience with cancer. He underwent minor surgery in spring 2011 to remove a cancerous growth on his nose. He was put under local anesthetic and doctors removed basal cell carcinoma, a common, slow-growing form of skin cancer, from the right side of his nose.
For that cancer, Brown underwent micrographic surgery, in which a doctor can tell even before the wound is closed that all the cancerous cells have been removed.
More than 241,000 new cases of prostate cancer are expected to be diagnosed in the United States this year. More than 90 percent are early stage, and nearly all men with such diagnoses survive at least five years.
The governor's office did not say how the prostate cancer was first detected. Cases are typically found through a PSA blood test or a physical exam.
Brown is the son of former two-term governor Edmund G. Brown and has spent a lifetime in politics, including terms as the secretary of state, attorney general and mayor of Oakland.
He previously was governor from 1975 to 1983, and returned to his former post in 2011 after handily beating former eBay chief executive Meg Whitman.
Brown became the state's oldest serving governor when he turned 73 a few months into office. He was its second youngest when he was first sworn into office in 1975.
Brown is coming off a resounding political victory in November after he persuaded Californians to support Proposition 30, a ballot measure that raised the statewide sales tax and increased income taxes for the wealthy.
The extra revenue is expected to help ease the state's budget woes and give Brown smoother sailing to pursue his agenda in 2013.

Looking for something to do in Dover this weekend? We've got three ideas for you.
Lantern Tour of Christ Church Cemetery
WHERE Christ Episcopal Church, South and Water streets, Dover
WHEN 7:30 p.m., Friday
When the sun sets in Dover tonight, expect to see a few ghosts out and about at Christ Church Cemetery, mixing, mingling and telling their stories to anyone with $5 who's willing to listen.
The ghosts may actually be costumed docents with First State Heritage Park's Lantern Tour series but the spooky effect is just the same. The tour, which boasts the low, low price of $5 includes the meanings behind the funeral art decorating some of the tombs as well as what those symbols might reveal about the people buried beneath them. It also includes the joys and sorrows of those who were laid to rest within the walls of the churchyard, from Caesar Rodney's unrequited love to Civil War opponents who are buried within yards of one another. Participants should expect s few surprises or even a visit or two from voices of the past.
Elaine Brenchley with First State Heritage Park said people can expect the tour of Christ Episcopal Churchyard to be more like historic theater, with characters popping out and telling their stories.
"People enjoy the tours because the atmosphere created by the lanterns and the dark cemeteries allow people to suspend their disbelief and be taken back in time."
Space is limited and lantern reservations are required. For more information or to make a reservation, call (302) 739-9194.
WHERE Dover International Speedway, 1131 N. Dupont Highway, Dover
WHEN Friday through Sunday
COST Varies, depending on event
INFO www.doverspeedway.com
NASCAR fans from all over have to pack their cars and load up their RVs, but you can take advantage of one of Dover's biggest attractions without all the travel hassle.
The weekend is jam packed with concerts by Lonestar, Smokin' Gunnz and Rebelicious as well as appearances by Stewart-Haas driver Ryan Newman and an autograph session with the entire K&N Pro Series guys.
The usual fan favorites will also be up and running, too. From Segway tours of the Monster Mile and the Monster FunZone for Kids to the eight-acre FanZone, which entertains all weekend with lots of meet and greet opportunities that allow fans to get up close and personal with their favorite drivers and racing personalities.
And, who can forget the races themselves? The NASCAR Nationwide Series kicks off Saturday at 3 p.m. followed by the AAA 400 Sprint Cup Series on Sunday at 2 p.m. They say defending Dover winner Jimmie Johnson is the man to beat but everyone knows that it's anybody's race.
Be sure to check out www.doverspeedway.com for advance ticket options for every event, a schedule and even parking options.
Live Music, dancing at Cowboy Up Saloon
WHERE 1036 Lafferty Lane
WHEN 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday
INFO www.facebook.com/pages/Cowboy-Up-Saloon/421311437904748
Last weekend, country music fans went wild for the grand opening of Dover's newest hot spot, Cowboy Up Saloon. If you weren't there, don't fret that you missed out because the band is coming back and there is still plenty of fun to be had.
Hung Jury will perform all weekend and when the doors are open there is bound to be some kind of music playing and everyone is invited to cut a rug on the dance floor.
But, you don't have to go there just to dance. Just like the saloons of way back when, there's a full lunch and dinner menu with a daily happy hour from 4 to 7 p.m.
However, if you can't make it over the weekend or you're a little shy about your dance moves, stop in during the week for lessons for both couples and singles and learn the best Two-Steppin' techniques or how to have the finest line dancing dexterity so you can make plans for your next big country weekend. To learn more about the owners of this new business, see page 10.

CHAMPAIGN (AP) — The Illinois state climatologist says that after a cooler-than-usual July the summer finally turned warmer in August. And the season has been one of the wettest on record.
Climatologist Jim Angel said Tuesday that the statewide average temperature in August was 73.9 degrees. That's just above the average for the month and about 3.6 degrees warmer than July's 70.3 degrees. The July figure tied the coolest July on record for the state.
Angel says statewide average precipitation for August was 5.18 inches. That's 1.59 inches above average.
The statewide average rainfall for the three summer months of June, July and August has been 14.96 inches. That is the 10th wettest summer on record.
Angel noted that the warmer August was good for the state's crops.

At the zoo there is a lady I know who cares a lot about bats, she pretty much knows everything one needs to know about them. Some time last year at one of our gatherings she was talking about bats being killed by the wind turbines. She said hundreds of bats were dying around wind turbines in the midwest, so it set me searching to find what was going on.
Some Interesting Bat Facts
Bats are an essential part of our environment, they keep pests in check and are also pollinators for many plants and trees.
Their names have been maligned by misinformation and myth over centuries.
Of the 1100 species of bats only 3 species of bats feed on blood or are vampires, which do not suck blood but make a cut and lick blood. All 3 are found in South America only.
Bats are mammals.
Bats do use echolocation to fly during the night, but unlike most people believe they do have excellent eye sight.
Most migratory bats are solitary.
Most bat species eat insects, while many tropical species feed exclusively on fruit or nectar.
Bats are, for their size, the slowest reproducing mammals on earth. On average, mother bats rear only one young per year, and some do not give birth until they are two or more years old.
Bats can live up to 40+ years!
Bats have inspired characters from Villains to Superheros! Dracula to bat man 🙂
Wind Turbines and Bats
I came across two articles on the subject the earlier one from 2008 on discovery.com spoke about how wind turbines were killing bats without hitting them and the other in the National geographic from yesterday was tilted Hope for stemming wind energy's toll on bats.
The article says that a study conducted had come to the conclusion that most of the bats flew into the low pressure area behind the will turbines which resulted in their little lungs rupturing and causing their deaths, some died by being hit by the turbine tips. The annual bat fatality in West Virginia alone is estimated to be between 1500-4000 bats. Nationally the numbers are much larger. Bats being nocturnal and so tiny, are difficult to keep track of. Before them dying under the wind turbines no one really saw them unless they went looking for them.
Most of the impacted bats are migratory bats which some how seem to drawn to the wind turbines at night. Bat experts have been working for a solution to this problem and some have suggested an ultrasonic sound to be added to the wind turbines (no one is sure about the long term effects of ultrasonic sounds on bats and other wildlife).
Ed Arnett director of Bat Conservation International suggests that wind turbines be turned off when the bats are most active i.e. night. They have been working with a wind energy producer and have seen bat deaths drop by 20-50% as a result. Another solution could be to increase the minimum wind speed needed to set the blades in motion. Most bats are more active in low wind.
As the concern over the high number of bat deaths increased it led to the formation of The Bats and Wind Energy Cooperative (BWEC) in 2003 by Bat Conservation International (BCI), the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA), and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory of the US Department of Energy (NREL).
Hopefully something will be done to safe guard the bats right to fly as it has for generations. It is frustrating when we seem to ignore an issue that stares at us just because it does not have a pretty face or loud enough voice.

This article was written collaboratively by Adele Harty and Dr. Ken Olson.
With the early October blizzard and unexpected death loss, producers are forced to manage calves differently than they would traditionally. One of the areas that this is most obvious is weaning. It seems as though more cows were lost than calves, which means some of those calves have been weaned by the storm, adding stress to an already highly stressed animal. As a result ranchers need to give some extra attention to these calves to ensure their health and nutrition in the coming weeks.
In the area of health, due to the increased stress, orphaned calves are going to be more susceptible to disease; therefore the need to vaccinate becomes greater. Relative to pre-weaning vaccinations, if you have been able to get two doses into the calves prior to the blizzard, you should be in good shape. If not, give them the first dose as soon as possible. Cortisol (stress hormone) levels increased during the storm. Cortisol reduces response to vaccines. However, cortisol levels have decreased in the calf's system since the storm, leading to the opportunity for a better immune response to the vaccine. If the first vaccine dose was given before the storm, but has not been boostered yet (2nd dose), go ahead and do this as soon as possible. If pre-weaning vaccinations are something that have not been common practice for your ranch, this is a year that they should be given to provide the best opportunity for calves to remain healthy, especially from the viral diseases, such as IBR, BVD, BRSV, and PI3.
Weaning strategies following the blizzard are going to be similar to strategies in a normal year, however, extra attention will need to be given to the calves and close observation for signs of illness. If there are orphans in the herd, it would be a good idea to wean all calves so that the animals are all on the same system and being started on feed at the same time. It helps with the management of the calves if they are all handled together and treated the same.
If you don't normally hold calves at home after weaning but need to this year, some weaning strategies to consider include:
- Provide a clean, dry environment. If dry ground is a challenge at this time, provide bedding for the calves to lie in. The pen should also have a windbreak, so they have some protection from the elements.
- Feed fresh, clean, high quality hay. Once they are eating well, you can provide a small amount of concentrate (2 lbs or less). This is not intended necessarily to promote higher gain, but more to provide a greater level of bunk breaking, which leads to a more valuable calf for the feeder who buys them down the road.
- Clean, good quality water needs to be readily accessible, even by the smallest calves. You may need to consider using sheep tanks to ensure that all calves have adequate access to water.
- Be prepared and expect sickness. Monitor calves closely for symptoms including snotty noses, droopy ears, shrunk and off feed, secluded and off in a corner from the rest of the calves, or bloody stools. Have a conversation with your veterinarian to be prepared to provide proper treatment of calves if you start to see symptoms. This is an important time to develop a strong Veterinarian – Client - Patient relationship.
- Weaning calves can add value, so by bunk breaking them and vaccinating they can be represented as weaned calves and provide an additional profit potential.
- In order to capitalize on this, all calves need to be eating well for a minimum of two weeks prior to marketing. A longer period is better, but is dependent on feed resources, especially when this may not have been a planned event.
Highly stressed calves from the blizzard can provide some management challenges, but by providing them the proper start to health and nutrition, there is a great opportunity to capitalize on added value.
For additional information or help in addressing your specific weaning needs, please contact Dr. Ken Olson at 605.394.2236 or Adele Harty at 605.394.1722.

"Money's too tight to mention," the Valentine Brothers sang in the early '80s -- and that anthem to economic hard times still applies today. But great music can be had this autumn that won't bust your wallet. Here's a sampling of some relatively inexpensive must-see shows:
Kings Go Forth: If it's horn-fueled soul you want with the edges left intact, this multi-cultural big band from Milwaukee is the real deal. Their 2010 album, "The Outsiders are Back" (Luaka Bop), is a blast, and their live show is even better, 9 p.m. Sept. 16 at Double Door, 1572 N. Milwaukee Av., $12; ticketfly.com
Sergeant Garcia: Part of the annual World Music Festival that takes over Chicago every September, this French punk veteran dives into Caribbean and Spanish music with equal flair, 5 p.m. Sept. 18 at Spirit of Music Garden in Grant Park, free; explorechicago.org.
The Raincoats: Extremely rare tour by Ana Da Silva and Gina Birch's U.K. band behind a reissue of their jagged, raw, charmingly direct 1981 album, "Odyshape" – a huge favorite of Kurt Cobain's, 9 p.m. Sept. 19 at Double Door, 1572 N. Milwaukee Av., $20; ticketfly.com.
F --- Up: The Toronto hardcore band puts an impressive capstone on its first, prolific decade with one of the year's best albums, the multi-faceted rock opera, "David Comes to Life," 7 p.m. Sept. 29 at Logan Square Auditorium, 2539 N Kedzie, $15 and $18 (door); ticketweb.com.
Oval: Berlin-based innovator Markus Popp brings his textured brand of electronic psychedelia to a decidedly non-rave setting, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 30 at the Museum of Contemporary Art, 220 E. Chicago, $10 (students), $16 (members) and $20; mcachicago.org.
St. Vincent: Annie Clark uses St. Vincent as a vehicle for combining orchestral fantasias, disturbing lyrics and serious guitar shredding. She's back at it on her third album, "Strange Mercy" (4AD), 9 p.m. Oct. 5 at Metro, 3730 N. Clark St., $18; etix.com.
Van Hunt: Soul as redefined by an artist who doesn't adhere to genre formulas. After a lengthy hiatus, enforced in part by record-company problems, Hunt is back with an excellent new album, "What Were You Hoping For?" (vanhunt.com), 10 p.m. Oct. 7 at Schubas, 3159 N. Southport, $14; schubas.com.
Wild Flag: As good as the combination of Sleater-Kinney's Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss with Helium's Mary Timony and the Minders' Rebecca Cole sounds in theory, it's even better in its unruly and uninhibited reality, 10 p.m. Oct. 8 and 9:30 p.m. Oct. 9 at Empty Bottle, 1035 N. Western, $15; ticketweb.com.
Cymbals Eat Guitars: The New Jersey band made a big splash in 2009 with "Why There are Mountains," a scorched re-imagining of '90s alternative rock. They return with a retooled lineup and an even more ambitious album, "Lenses Alien" (Memphis Industries), 10 p.m. Oct. 21 at Lincoln Hall, 2424 N. Lincoln Av., $12 and $15 (door)
Eleanor Friedberger: One-half of Fiery Furnaces is touring behind an excellent solo album, "Last Summer" (Merge), which presents her band's puzzle-piece rock in a more direct and accessible light, 9 p.m. Oct. 29 at Subterranean, 2011 W. North Av., $12; ticketweb.com.
