HILLSBOROUGH – While Sunday's heavy rains were a major disruption for many in Chapel Hill, one local community is pleased by the change in the weather: mosquitoes.
Charles Apperson, professor emeritus of entomology at N.C.State, says that mosquito eggs need water to hatch and these eggs may already be planted all around.
"Mosquitoes can lay eggs that are dormant and wait to be flooded," Apperson says. "When you flood those areas and submerge eggs, they hatch."
Apperson says one very effective way of cutting down on mosquito populations after a rainstorm is to get rid of standing water around the home.
"The ones that are produced around our homes, the Asian Tiger Mosquito, can go through their life cycle in five-to-seven days," Apperson says. "So, after a rain, go around the yard and empty out everything you can that you find that contains water."
Stacy Shelp, public information officer for the Orange County Health Department, adds that bacterial insecticides known as "dunks" can be used in hard-to-drain places like flower pots or gutters that still contain standing water.
"The good thing about those is that they are bacteria so they don't harm fish or birds or other wildlife," Shelp says. "They last about 30 days to control the mosquito larvae."
Apperson says that even if someone totally clears a yard of water for mosquitoes to hatch in, if a neighbor does not do the same, mosquitoes that hatch over there can still spread to other yards and homes.
While the Orange County Health Department is urging residents to take precautions to avoid mosquito infestations, Apperson says that any health risk from mosquitoes is unlikely.
"These mosquito transmitted diseases are very rare diseases," Apperson says. "Mosquitoes are mainly a nuisance."
Apperson cautions that this does not mean residents should be negligent when clearing their yards of mosquitoes.
"It's a numbers game," Apperson says. "The more people that are bitten, the odds increase that someone will be bitten by a mosquito that contains a pathogen."
Orange County officials like Shelp point out that these mosquito prevention tips should be put into place after all rainstorms, not just the flood-inducing ones seen last week.

MIAMI - Dan Carpenter kicked a 43-yard field goal on the final play Sunday, and the Miami Dolphins scored 17 points in the last 8:08 to rally past the Seattle Seahawks 24-21.
Rookie Ryan Tannehill drove Miami 65 yards in the final 92 seconds to set up the winning kick. He finished 18 for 26 for 253 yards and a score.
Leon Washington returned a kickoff for a touchdown for the eighth time to tie the NFL career record and put Seattle ahead with eight minutes left. Miami answered with an 80-yard drive capped by Tannehill's 29-yard scoring pass to Charles Clay, making it 21-all.
Miami (5-6) broke a three-game losing streak. The Seahawks (6-5), who are unbeaten at home this year, lost for the fifth time in six road games.
The Dolphins host the Patriots next Sunday.

There are differing opinions in the medical community on when screening for prostate cancer should begin.
African American men have a higher rate of prostate cancer. And, they are more likely to die from it. That means that early detection is extremely important within the African American community. In addition to these tests, new blood tests are becoming available to add to your doctor's ability to detect prostate cancer.

Abstract: The Middle Bronze Age Levant at War
From 1900 to 1530 BCE, kingdoms from the Egyptian Delta to southern Mesopotamia were characterized by impressive fortified networks ranging from hilltop towers to fortified capital cities. The construction of these defenses represented massive investments for the communities involved and signaled a period of sustained conflict over a wide region for several centuries. The archaeological, historical, and iconographic sources for this period represent a rich dataset for exploring the causes of conflict in this period and the strategies employed to address the concerns of sedentary communities. In this lecture, Prof. Burke will illustrate the nature of conflict during this period and the defensive networks established in response to these concerns.

Nashua says yes to city alertsBy KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent
April 24. 2013 2:09AM
NASHUA - Aldermen on Tuesday authorized a citywide notification system that will alert citizens to critical information in the event of an emergency.
With a unanimous vote, the Board of Aldermen approved a $108,000 contract with Emergency Communications Network, LLC for its CodeRED notification system. There was little discussion about the proposal, which was previously reviewed in depth by the aldermanic Finance Committee.
Alderman David Deane explained that all city departments - with the exception of the Nashua School District - will use the new system, including city police and fire officials.
Although the schools use a different notification system, Alderman Brian McCarthy, board president, said officials will eventually be looking to merge the city and school alert notification systems once the contracts allow for that change.
A three-year contract for the CodeRED system, which equates to $36,000 annually, was approved.
Soon, residents and businesses will be able to subscribe to all of the electronic alerts, or choose specific alerts such as weather advisories, electrical outage data, road closures and other pertinent information, according to Justin Kates, the city's emergency management director.
Kates said previously that every landline phone in Nashua will be automatically subscribed to the alerts, while residents with cell phones will have to subscribe manually.
Residents will be contacted via their home phones or cell phones with alert voice messages, text messages and/or emails, he said.
The high-speed notification system has massive dialing capabilities, and can call thousands of subscribers in minutes, according to its website.
Last week, in the midst of the Boston bombings, Kates said it is important that Nashua have a citywide alert notification system if an incident like that were to happen in Nashua.
"Seconds really count," said Kates. " ... The instant notification can save lives."
Until the automatic notification system is up and running - which Kates hopes will be on July 1 residents can still have access to immediate emergency alerts at www.gonashua.com.

The Minnesota Vikings signed tight end Kyle Rudolph to a contract extension, the team announced Sunday.
The Vikings did not provide details of the contract, but ESPN.com reported it was a five-year extension worth a minimum of $36.5 million. It could be worth up to $40 million.
Rudolph is guaranteed $19.4 million. He will receive a $6.5 million signing bonus and a $960,000 guaranteed base salary this season. The remaining $12 million of the guarantees are for injury only.
"I'm extremely excited to get this extension completed and continue my career with the Minnesota Vikings," Rudolph said in a statement released by the team. "I've said all along I wanted to stay in Minnesota. I love the fans, the community and, most importantly, I'm excited about where this team is going. I'm looking forward to the 2014 season and helping this organization reach our ultimate goal."
Rudolph, 24, caught 53 passes, including nine for touchdowns, in 2012, when he was named to the Pro Bowl. He was limited to eight games in 2013 because of a broken foot, but still caught 30 passes for 313 yards and three scores.
"I'm very excited to get this extension done with Kyle," Vikings General Manager Rick Spielman said in a statement. "We drafted him, he's done a tremendous job since he's been here. Our whole focus on moving forward in this organization is to draft our players, develop them and keep them here. He's one of our young guys who is going to be a building block as we go forward in the future and just very excited to get this behind us so we can look forward to seeing him produce over the coming years."

County Councilman Jerry Walker plans to introduce a bill at Monday night's council meeting that would declare English the official language of Anne Arundel County.
The Gambrills Republican said the bill is the first in a series he plans to press that will attempt to stem illegal immigration locally. The bill, co-sponsored by Walker's three Republican colleagues, would require that all official county documents, communications and agreements be in English.
"I wanted to make a statement of some kind to let folks know we're not a sanctuary county," said Walker. "If you're here illegally, go where you're welcome. You're not welcome here."
The bill appears largely symbolic, as it contains language that would allow several exceptions. If passed, the bill would not prevent the county from continuing to distribute information in foreign languages "to protect the rights of victims of crime and criminal defendants, to protect public health and safety, to teach English to non-native speakers and promote trade and tourism in the county."
Kim Propeack, director of community organizing and political action at Casa de Maryland, an immigrant advocacy group, said Walker's bill probably would have little impact.
"When you think about county services that are only county-funded, what are you talking about, trash collection? Do you really want people to not understand garbage collection rules?"
According to county officials, the county provides various translation services, which Walker concedes would not be affected by his bill. The county Health Department, for example, employs staff as translators at a cost to the county of $83,474 a year.
The county Police Department pays about $1,000 a month for its communication service, which assists with interpreting for non-English-speaking callers. The department also prints fliers in foreign languages. The Fire Department spends about $1,200 annually for public education safety materials in other languages.
"I realize some things are federally mandated," said Walker. "There's not really a thing we can do about that."
A spokesman for John R. Leopold, who has also attempted to change rules relating to immigrants, said the county executive is reviewing the bill.
In 2007, Leopold signed an executive order preventing the county from doing business with anyone who employs illegal immigrants. In 2008, the county detention center began checking prisoners' immigration status with federal authorities, resulting in several deportations. In 2010, the county joined the federal Secure Communities program, which employs fingerprint identification using federal databases, giving law enforcement officials the ability to quickly identify illegal immigrants.
Councilman John J. Grasso, a Glen Burnie Republican, said the county should not use taxpayer dollars to provide translation services.
"We're accountable to get someone on the phone and put them with an interpreter at the taxpayers' expense," said Grasso. "We never asked them to come over here. Why should the taxpayers have to pay for them? The majority of the people in this country speak English, so for the illegals to come over here and think we should speak their language, it's downright insane. You come to America, you learn the language. Anybody who's a real American will agree."
As he campaigned for a seat on the council in 2010, Walker said the issue of illegal immigration was one that residents voiced frequently as a concern. Walker said immigrants should be judged by the standard of his great-grandfather, who came from Greece in the early 1900s to Ellis Island, settled in New York City, found work shining shoes, eventually learned English and became a business owner.
"He didn't speak English, but he came here and assimilated," said Walker. "Everybody should do the same, regardless of where they're from."
Thirty-one states have passed laws designating English as their official language, said Robert Vandervoort, executive director of ProEnglish, an Arlington, Va.-based nonprofit that urges governments to designate English as the official language.
"It helps to clarify the common language of our country," Vandervoort said. "Especially since America has such a rich tradition of being a melting pot. There are hundreds of languages that are spoken in homes, and we think that having an official language to do government work in would be very helpful in letting people know English is the language that we're all expected to know and work with."
Efforts to declare English the official language began in the 1970s as multiculturalism and bilingualism took root, said Vandervoort. In recent years, efforts have intensified at the local level as lawmakers have tried to affect the national immigration debate.
Maryland has not passed "official English" legislation. Del. Patrick L. McDonough, a Republican who represents Baltimore and Harford counties, has pushed unsuccessfully for similar legislation in the General Assembly. At the federal level, similar bills are pending in the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Councilman Chris Trumbauer, an Annapolis Democrat, responded, "No me gusta" — Spanish for "I don't like it" — when asked about Walker's bill.
"I don't understand the need for it, and I'm not sure what it would seek to accomplish," Trumbauer said. "Would it disallow us from printing things in different languages where it might be helpful to do so? It doesn't seem like an issue that the county needs to address right now."
Councilman Jamie Benoit expressed similar concerns.
"I don't know that it accomplishes anything," said Benoit, a Crownsville Democrat. "I don't think a bill like this is going to encourage people who don't speak it to jump out of bed and learn to speak English."

Thomas Sowell takes time out from his usual beat to pay tribute to Bing Crosby on the occasion of his hundredth birthday on May 2 in his column today: "Bing Crosby: Singer of the century."
Confirming a point made in this column concerning Crosby's eclecticism, I was surprised to hear Crosby taking a couple turns with blues/jazz singer Louis Jordan (on "My Baby Said 'Yes'" and "Your Socks Don't Match") in the wonderful, inexpensive five-disk Louis Jordan and his Tympani Five compilation that came out on JSP Records in 2001. Suffice it to say that Crosby complemented Jordan beautifully.
Jazz writer Gary Giddins has published the first volume of what will be the definitive biography of Crosby — Bing Crosby: A Pocketful of Dreams. The first volume, now out in paperback, was published in 2001 and takes the story to 1940.

Competition lingered large in the hair on this week's "Bachelor," as the eyes became starrier, the sighs got heavier and the claws grew longer. Starting with an ominous Kacie B. voiceover along with a shot of an ambulance, it was sure to be a cold, dangerous reminder of the champagne-soaked, high-stakes reality of the "Bachelor" fantasy.
Sean Lowe reveals that he is "finding himself... (long pause)... really digging a lot of women." Cool it with the lewdness, Sean, it's really getting old. Learn to contain yourself.
The sagely Chris Harrison appears, offering timeless advice, somewhere between "Remember to breathe" and "Don't stab him with a stiletto": "When you see him, make it the best time you can."
The first date this week features Leslie, who has sort of emerged as the early front-runner. He takes her to the Guinness World Records museum or something, where he reveals that his dad set a record for wasting gas driving around the continental US faster than anyone else. Congrats, Sean's dad. Anyway, Sean has decided to embark on his own noble record-setting endeavor with Leslie: setting the world's longest on-screen kiss. "I'm proud of you, son," says Sean's dad, somewhere, I imagine.
Brought in front of a whooping mob, Leslie accepts the "very intimate moment that's not so intimate." So they dive in, trying to go one three-minute, sixteen-second round of tonsil hockey that will immortalize them forever in the record books, or until someone breaks their record. Until then, this will surely be an obnoxious, frequent conversation for Sean to endure when he's not married to Leslie in like two years.
Anyway, under the close scrutiny of a Guinness records guy who looks like a sleazier Charlie Sheen (somehow possible), they kiss and laugh and kinda touch each other in TRIPLE SPLIT SCREEN MODE for the full time, tearing their lips apart only after the record was torn down.
For a more intimate intimacy, the pair heads to a rooftop, where they wax romantic about how uncomfortable they make each other, and Sean basically challenges Leslie to kiss him ("I'm waiting for you to take control back.") Soon after, Leslie proclaims she's "falling in love" with Sean, and they make out under the beam of a spotlight on massive rooftop while confetti intimately falls on them.
The only ones not invited on the next day's group date are Ashlee, Sarah and Selma. The rest get to head to the beach, where they are there for a suspiciously innocent "hangout." Their suspicions soon prove correct, as a fully-clothed, creepy looking dude suddenly appears and--oh, wait, that's Chris Harrison, here to announce they will be playing beach volleyball in two teams, and, here's the cutthroat, the losers get sent home. As the girls bumble through point after point, it comes down to the final serve. Desiree tells us how nervous she is. The camera steps back. Desiree, armed and ready, crushes an overhand serve over the net. The other team whiffs unceremoniously. Game over. Thrilling.
As punishment, all the girls from the losing team must board a rape van and go home without any supper. Desiree says, "The other girls are probably at home crying in their beds because they lost." Cut to the other girls at home crying ON THE COUCH, thank you very much. Tierra prepares to announce the last date, and it goes to Ashlee and Selma. "JK, JUST ASHLEE," says Tierra, flashing that playful sense of humor of hers--"Wait, that was, like, not cool," Sarah says. In any case, Ashlee prepares for her date.
Back on the beach, Desiree lacks no confidence, bragging heavy about her volleyball exploits, and, wow, Sean loves her confidence, dropping what's becoming his signature phrase: "I love that." Tensions are running high between Des and Amanda, who has screwed up her face into kind of a disgusted arrogance that's really quite impressive. The girl has no facial filter in relation to her mood. When she gets Sean, she tells him, "you know everything you're looking for in a wife?" and points to herself, and he loves that too. Did I mention she's not lacking in confidence either?
Des, however, does not approve, bitching to Kacie B. about "questionable" Amanda's two-faced-ness. "I don't know if she's here for Sean... She's just kind of dark and just kind of creepy," she says. As Des ponders what the scary, gothic fit model Amanda is really here for (my money is on the hors d'oeuvres), it's Kacie B.'s turn with Sean, and, you know what? She's going to be a little selfish, she tells us.
Apparently, Kacie B.'s definition of selfish means "narking about other people's problems in a way that makes you look really bad," which is sort of weird, because that's not what I thought selfish meant at all. "I don't think he'll tolerate drama," she says, before unloading a bunch of tedious bullshit drama on Sean, who is extremely confused as to why she's saying something to him. "More importantly, why are you involving yourself?" Always with the irony, Kacie replies, "I'm not a drama person... I just can't be myself," and with that, she has fallen complelety head over heels onto her own sword and is now just kind of really letting it gut her. "I want you to act like Kacie, not like this crazy person I'm seeing," Sean tells her. Yikes.
Lindsay actually steals the rose, much to the chagrin of Des and Amanda. She has a nice little talk with Sean at the beginning of the date that was so forgettable, I felt like Amanda's face when Lindsay received the rose. Nice girl, though.
Just before the next day's date, Tierra steps her game up and "falls" down the stairs, prompting an ambulance appearance and some time with Sean. Ashlee is NOT pleased.
When they get the date going, they go to Six Flags, where the amusement park has been shut down so that Sean and Ashlee can join Brianna and Emily, two teens with a serious mitochondrial disease, for a day of fun, because Sean enjoys charity work.
Quick aside: I joke about Sean's blandness but he really does seem like a good dude. Can you imagine Ben Flajnik helping two seriously ill kids? Is Ben aware that illness exists in the world?
The date comes off well; the pair is equally impressed in the character of one another. When they get alone time, Ashlee unspools a very intense story about being abused in a foster home and subsequently adopted by her parents that brings Sean to tears. Her optimism and perseverance moves Sean, and she nabs a deserved rose.
On the last night, Sean wants to reassure Sarah, so he has the show bring her dog to the house in its own limousine, obviously. It's pretty cutthroat from there, as Tierra starts the night with Sean, then Desiree steals him, and Tierra steals him back, infuriating the other girls, who one-by-one steal Sean away from one another while Des sits on a bench assuming he's going to come back. Ashlee, who already has a rose but apparently gives no fucks, cuts off Kacie B. trying to redeem herself. The games have certainly begun, and the long faces are showing it. As they gather to say goodnight, Sean describes the night as "incredible." That's certainly one way to describe it, Sean; there are some lethal strangulation-in-your-sleep vibes going on in that room right now.
At the next night's ceremony, with rose in hand, Sean asks Kacie B. to leave the room, and her fate has been sealed. Sean has failed to develop romantic feelings for Kacie as she gloriously self-destructed in front of his very eyes (but NOT in a dramatic way, because she is NOT a drama person.) He sends her home. "Last time I left here with no regrets," says Kacie B., "And this time... there are regrets."
He picks Tierra first (gross, dude), and Amanda's expression goes from terrifyingly sly when Kacie leaves to terrifyingly terrifying when roses aren't going to her to terrifyingly happy when she is picked. The last three standing are Desiree, Kristy and Taryn, among which he obviously picks Des. Taryn learns the classic "Bachelor" lesson of "don't be too guarded," and Kristy just gets a bad rap. It's hard to see how hard some of these girls take elimination when it's not really their fault.
"Falling in love with him" count: 3
Running tab of things Tierra is "not here to do": make friends, get hurt, lose the competition, play dress up.

You've read this several times over the past couple months, but in light of an ESPN Deportes story that has gained some traction, it bears repeating. The Phillies and Pedro Martinez are not close to an agreement that would bring the veteran righthander back to the Phillies. The two sides have maintained open communication since the end of last season, and Martinez remains an option for the Phillies should they find themselves in need of starting pitching later in the season. But as of right now, the coaching staff and front office feel like their best course of action is to evaluate their current rotation before making any drastic decisions.
Kyle Kendrick and Jamie Moyer both turned in less-than-stellar results in their first starts of the season, but the Phillies know that any fair judgment requires a body of work.
This is what will likely end up happening:
Kendrick will remain in the rotation until righthander Joe Blanton is ready to return from the disabled list. At the earliest, this won't happen for another week-and-a-half. In all likelihood, Kendrick will get three more starts, including tomorrow against the Nationals. At that point, the Phillies will go in one of three directions: Either they'll send him back to the minor leagues to start, keep him in the bullpen as a long reliever, or keep him in the rotation over Jamie Moyer.
At that point, the Phillies will likely wait until mid-to-late May to decide whether their current No. 5 starter (Moyer or Kendrick) is a better option than Matinez. Last year, they waited until mid-May to remove Chan Ho Park from the rotation. It stands to reason that they will afford Moyer or Kendrick a similar length of rope.
If the Phillies start to look at Martinez as a serious option, I'd expect them to try to bring him into the fold earlier than they did last season, since it was August by the time he was ready to join the rotation.
Granted, injuries could change this timetable.
For now, though, a return by Pedro is not imminent.
Possible, but not imminent.

Ellsbury propels Yanks over SoxSportsDirect Inc.
April 22. 2014 11:50PM
Jacoby Ellsbury returned to Boston and collected a double, a triple, two RBIs and two runs scored as visiting New York beat the Red Sox 9-3 in the series opener.

007… Fifty Years Strong: An Interview with James Bond Historians
Let us continue the James Bond 50th anniversary celebration, shall we? Last autumn, around the time Skyfall was being released to theaters, the Blu-ray set was hitting retailers and the anniversary hype was in high gear, I had this idea that it might be interesting if I could round up a few of my James Bond historian friends, turn on a recorder… and talk James Bond, and then perhaps turn that into an article. It didn't happen (primarily for logistical reasons). But a few months later the next best thing did happen. That is, separately-conducted interviews that have been edited into a round-table format.

Twins to bring Jason Bartlett to spring training
November 20, 2013
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins have agreed to terms with former starting shortstop Jason Bartlett on a minor league contract that includes an invitation to spring training.
The Twins announced the deal on Wednesday among several other minor moves. Bartlett is one of 11 non-roster players who'll be in camp. The 34-year-old did not appear in the majors last season, but he was a regular for six years, with Minnesota, Tampa Bay and San Diego. Bartlett was a contributor to playoff teams with the Twins in 2006 and Rays in 2008 and 2010.
The Twins also did some shuffling with their 40-man roster, adding left-hander Logan Darnell, outfielder Max Kepler and infielders Jorge Polanco and Kenny Vargas prior to the winter major league draft.

The Twilight franchise's decision to split Stephanie Meyer's fourth novel, Breaking Dawn into two films was a bold one. Despite being over 700 pages long, there's not a ton of action that goes down after the birth of Bella's daughter, Renesmee. Apparently, screenplay writer Melissa Rosenberg felt she could go somewhere with two scripts, and in Breaking Dawn: Part 2, she comes through in a big way.
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 is a weird hybrid of an adaptation that follows the latter half of the book fairly closely, until the climax of the flick is flipped on its head and shaken so hard the audience's heads might explode. The ending of the film is shocking, and it will throw its fanbase through a bit of a loop. The changes are impressive, but I wish Melissa Rosenberg's screenplay would have forged through with its premise and given us a conclusion that stuck to its guns.
If you haven't caught Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2, yet, please do not read this article. There are plenty of spoilers, but there are a couple in particular that will totally change the way you view the film.
Bella has immediate control over herself, but her thirst is far more apparent than the avoidable scratch she mentions when she first awakes as a vampire. Jasper still teases her and she does briefly go after the hiker, but she still has a little more baby vamp in her at the beginning of the film. This doesn't really change Bella's personality at all, but it does make the newness of becoming a vampire apparent, before she even energetically bounds through the forest.

High-fat diets...low-fat diets…which are healthier? It turns out that the type of fat in the diet, rather than the amount, is important in the prevention of chronic disease.
About 35-40 percent of the calories in the Mediterranean diet are from fat, with the main type of fat being monounsaturated fat from olive oil and nuts. Monounsaturated fat is a specific type of fat that may lower blood cholesterol.
Other foods that those on the Mediterranean diet commonly eat include:

More research is needed to determine the long-term effects of Mediterranean-type diets and the processes responsible for those effects.
You can change the typical American diet to a Mediterranean-type diet by making the following changes:
The Mediterranean-type diet is known for being very flavorful and satisfying! But be careful. Since it includes foods that are high in fat and calories, remember to watch your portion sizes! And don't forget to include physical activity in your daily routine.
A Mediterranean diet is based on the food habits of those countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea, such as:

If you're looking to hunt trophy whitetails, it's really tough to beat the outfitting and leasing options in Buffalo County, Wisconsin.
And, if you give me the option, I will go with an outfitter every time. The price comparisons are negligible, and the the comfort of an outfitted hunt can't be beat. That was the case this weekend as Deer and Deer Hunting videographer Nate Winters and I headed our truck west for the three-hour drive to the extreme western edge of our home state. It was the archery season opener, and our expectations were high.
We would be hunting with Mark Schuh, one of Buffalo County's up-and-coming superstar outfitters. Mark owns and operates Schuhter's Outpost just outside of Alma. This picturesque bluff country is the original "Land of Legends" when it comes to trophy whitetails. The unique slant of Schuh's operation, however, is that he's right on the Minnesota border, and he holds large land leases in both states. This allows the unique opportunity of taking an outfitted hunt and being able to kill two trophy bucks. Schuh makes this possible via his 2,500 acres of hunting grounds, plus the fact that he refuses to run a McDonald's style business. He take very few hunters each year, which has paid off in a success rate of 68 percent and a kill opportunity rate of 82 percent for his hardcore customer base of trophy whitetail hunters.
"To me, it's about quality, not quantity," Schuh said as we unpacked at midday of opening day. "Plus, you have to hunt these deer only when the conditions are right."
What that means here is that early season hunts are strictly limited to afternoon sits in tree stands located in transition zones from bedding to feeding areas.
Schuh is a diehard hunter himself, but (like any good outfitter) he does not hunt his properties when other hunters are in camp. "That's not fair to my clients," he said. "My No. 1 goal is to make sure every hunter gets a crack at a good buck."
I found out how serious Schuh was about delivering on that promise when we walked to our stand for the first evening. The farm was breathtaking, but the setup was even more beautiful. It was an oak and hickory draw surrounded by lush alfalfa and cornfields. The draw was tucked about a half-mile off the road, and these deer had not been pressured for 10 months. Schuh did maintain a line of trail cameras in the area, but he positioned them in a way that would not alter natural deer movement.
The temperature was pushing 80 as we climbed to the stand. A stiff breeze helped ease the heat a bit, but what comforted me more is that Schuh had the tree stand placed in an ideal spot — the wind was pulling up the draw and hitting us in the face. Any deer coming toward the crop fields this evening would walk past us none the wiser that two camo blobs were perched 20-plus feet high in a white oak.
Yes, it certainly is a luxury to hunt from a stand that someone else has hung on prime land where deer are allowed to grow big. But the more I think about that, the more I think it is a much more cost-efficient way for many hunters to get a chance at harvesting a good buck. With today's skyrocketing land and lease prices, it almost makes more sense to hunt through an outfitter. These types of hunts are ideal for the guy who simply doesn't have the time needed to plant food plots, maintain a property, hang stands, etc. What's more, a guy can enjoy a true deer camp atmosphere — an experience that fewer and fewer of today's younger hunters even know exists.

"Don't worry Mizuki..... Gorilla's always gravitate to big open places like the kitchen. Lots of food there and lots of places to dump his shit "
Finished Rewrite. Pretty amazing read, recommend it to all.
*Shinpachi wanders around the Shinsengumi HQ trying to reunite with Gintoki, Kagura and Mizuki, he tries to look in every room, hoping to find them, until...*
Shin. member 1: Oi, is this really Okita-taichou's room?
Shin. member 2: yes, I think it is...
Shin. member 3: remind me why we're here again?
Shin. member 1: Well, we heard some rumors about Capt. Okita...
Shin. member 4: yeah, that he's XXX, and that he's XXX, maybe we can find something in his room
Shin. member 2: yeah...look at this pic I took the other day...
*Shinpachi, curious to see what they were talking about moves closer, but then he suddenly notices that all of them run away, like they were scared of something...he turns around only to see...*
*thinking* (please let it be Gin-san...please let it be Gin-san...please let it be Gin-san...)
I like to call myself a Violent Pacifist...
Hijikata stands right in front of the man, zig on lip, and a small patch on his right cheek (incurred from his encounter with Mizuki).
With blues glaring, he asks the said man in uniform, "Oiiii.... what's your business here, hrhh? This area is for main officers only."
His eyes suddenly slants in anger.
Going on and off.... busy w/ projects.
*apparently Hijikata didn't notice that it was Shinpachi in disguise, he quickly takes of his glasses, hoping that ti would confuse Hijikata, then he quickly replies...*
G-Gomenasai!!! I-I'm a r-recruit from the c-countryside!!! I-I got lost f-from the other r-recruits, and I w-was hoping to f-find them again!!!
*thinking* I better offer him a bottle of mayonnaise to see if he's Gin-san in dusguise or not....*
A-Ano...I h-heared r-rumors t-that the d-demon o-of the Shinsengumi w-was a g-gourmand...I-I brought a g-gift f-for you, PLEASE ACCEPT IT!!!
*hands him a bottle of mayonnaise*
I-It's i-imported...f-from o-overseas....
I like to call myself a Violent Pacifist...
The Vice Captain holds the jar of mayo offered by the man. He looks round it, surveying like a diamond cutter would to a gem. He paused. And slowly, he raises his gaze to the "new recruit".
With a seeming light tone, he murmurs, "Did you know.... that its a primary offense to bribe an officer, even if it be comin from a junior, hrhhh?"
And from the outside, where the evening's peace be unperturbed.... comes the explosion.... and a flying "new recruit". Hijikata's leg still remained high up from the kick.
With veins popping, Hijikata turns his back, a hand in pocket and walks away, "Tch! Better get the Unit Leader responsible for this recruit. Mataka."
Going on and off.... busy w/ projects.
*as Shinpachi lay there on the ground, he could feel his wounds re-opening...two members of the Shinsengumi, that were apparently patrolling the area noticed the scene that just occured*
Shin. member 1: poor guy, must be a recruit
Shin. member 2: ha ha...he did that rookie mistake of trying to bribe him with mayonnaise...he should have brought at least 2 jars of mayonnaise, then at least he would have been let out with a severe scolding
Shin. member 1: oh, look, he's bleeding, it seems like the vice-chief didn't go easy on him........(quickly looks at the wounds that Shinpachi has) w-wait...these wounds aren't from the vice-chief, they look like cuts...this is too suspicious, bring him to the infirmary! Once he wakes up, we'll report him to vice-chief, where he'll be severely interrogated...he might be a damn Joi spy...
Shin. member 2: Yes, sir!
*the two carry the now unconscious Shinpachi to the infirmary*
I like to call myself a Violent Pacifist...
*Gin , Kagura and Mizuki head towards the cafteria when suddenly they are greeted by a Shinsegumi officer*
Officer: Good day Vice Commander... I heard there might be a spy about the headquarters.. you probably should head in for the interrogation about now .... *Officer looks at Mizuki/Kagura*..... Vice Commander....who might those be ? "
*Gin thinks to himself* : Dam it... what would that Mayo Bastard say right now.....he would probably say Mayo , Mayo, Mayo...... no ... wait.... did he say spy ........it might be Shinpachi.......hmm... "
*Gin, in his best impersonation of Hijitaka's voice*: "They are just prospective recruits., I was going to take them into to see the Gorill- I mean Chief-Goril- ........ you know..... that chief of a goril- ........I was going to get to see Kondrilla -San.......*
"Officer": Are you okay Vice Commander.... ? .... Did you get enough Mayo today ?
Gin : " ......Yeah thats it.... not enough... mayo.... I will make sure to pick some up. Anyways you said something about a spy ? What did he look like ?"
Officer: "He looked like a pretty plain guy like with glasses, at least thats what the rumours say."
*Gin thinks to himself*: "Oi... thats Shinpachi....what is he doing... does he think we are on a field trip... does he think we have time to explore the inner sanctums of youth... oi... we don't have time for that....follow your chaperone dam it.... tsk tsk... I am gonna give you detention Pachi Boy .... tsk better head over there "
Gin : "So where is he being held ? "
Officer: ....Um sir .... interrogations are always held in the south shack .... are you sure you are feeling okay ?"
Gin : "Seppeku....yeah ... commit seppeku or something... for questioning an officer......."
*Gin then proceeds to gave a menancing look to the officer, the officer backs off and tells him where the South Shack is "
*Whispers to Kagura/Mizuki": "We better head over there before Shinpachi has to commit a little seppeku of his own "
Finished Rewrite. Pretty amazing read, recommend it to all.
*Mizuki nods*. *she touches the table and all of sudden it broke in half*.
Wondering. Where is my prince. {missing someone}.
"Oi oi oi. Gin-chan, we better find that gorilla fast-aru. I don't know long we're gonna last here-aru"
*She sticks close to Gin as they make their way to track down Kondo*
[Meanwhile, on the opposite wing of HQ].......
Hijikata barely got out of his working quarters, when the 10th Division Captain stopped him in his tracks.
"Unosuke, what's with the rush."
The man gives his nod, and reports, "Sir, we have detained a man found loitering in the premises. He seemed to be heavily wounded and therefore was rushed in the infirmary. We believe him to be part of the Joi Faction. We request your presence."
"Sou da. Very well, I'll be there shortly."
"Yes, Vice Taichou."
And as Harada Unosuke went ahead, Hijikata decides to make one minor stop elsewhere to remind his Captain about the upcoming meeting.
Going on and off.... busy w/ projects.
*meanwhile, back inside the infirmary*
*Shinpachi wakes up to an unfamiliar ceiling, he could hear voices not far from him*
Shin. member 1: DAMN IT!!! WHY ARE WE HERE GUARDING THIS SO CALLED "SPY"!?! The nerve of that spy!!! To think he would infiltrate the Shinsengumi like this...undetected!!! We have to (puts on a rubber glove) THOROUGHLY examine him!
Shin. member 2: Oy, you better cut that out, I sent a few men to look for the vice-commander to report to him about this "spy" he should be here any moment...
*Shinpachi thinks* (EEEEEEH?!? E-EXAMINE? WHAT IS THIS? THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A CHILDREN'S ANIME! EVEN IF THEY CENSURE WORDS AND SCENE'S PEOPLE WILL NOW HAVE AN IMAGE OF HOW I GOT -censured word- IN HERE! I'VE GOT TO ESCAPE, ESPECIALLY SINCE HIJIKATA-SAN MIGHT BE ON HIS WAY!!! EVEN IF IT MIGHT BE GIN-SAN, I CANNOT RISK IT!)
*Shinpachi slowly climbs out of the bed, and tries to escape without being noticed, he found a mask that people put over they're faces if they caught a cold, he quickly puts it on and tries to sneak to by the two guards..*
*As Shinpachi walks next to them...*
Shin. member 1: OY...You think that you can trick me?
*Shinpachi, not knowing what to do just stood there frozen...*
Shin. member 1: Your uniform is all out place!! KORAA, you want to commit Seppuku you Aho? If the vice-commander saw you like this, he would slice you up on the spot!!!
*Shinpachi was lucky,since he looked so average, he could easily "meld in" to the environment...*
Y-Yes Sir! F-Fixing my uniform n-now, s-sir!!!
Shin. member 1: hah, didn't know that there was anyone else in the infirmary, thought it was only that damn spy! By the way, what unit you from, eh?
Shin. member 2: yeah, come to think of it, I've never seen you around! Remove that mask for a seco-
*But before that guard could finish talking, Shinpachi ran away...*
Shin. member 1: RING THE ALAARMS! THE SPY IS TRYING TO ESCAPE!!!!
*A few moments later...*
EEEEEH?!? (thinking tasukete, Gin-san!!!)
I like to call myself a Violent Pacifist...
Gin , Mizuki, and Kagura heads down to South Shack's infirmary and notices a commotion happening.
*Gin sees Shinpachi surrounded by a variety of Shinsegumi troops*
*Gin thinks to himself*: "Dam it would be easy just to tell them to stand down since I look like that mayo bastard....but that would bring on unwanted attention.......hmm ....huh?....whats that noise..... ?
*Gin starts hearing a strange swooshing noise..... its getting louder.... Gin is wondering where its coming from "
"Gin sees that Mizuki has touched a mayonaise bottle (note : this bottle was the one that Shinpachi used to bribe Hijitaka with ) ... the bottle seems to strangley compress on its own... which created excess pressure on the bottle....the bottle starts to rattle ...rattle..... and suddenly the bottle bursts open leaving a powerful stream of mayonaiise rushing towards one of the troops. The resulting force pushes the troop onto another troop...and both troops fall down only to have their swords fall of their uniform's waist. Both swords fly off in seperate directions, each hitting a troop. The troops that were hit by the sword also fall off.....resulting in yet more sets of swords flying into the air ........by the end of it all there were troops (all except for Shinpachi , oddly enough) on the ground with bruises on their heads...)
*Gin grabs Shinpachi and makes a break for it *
Finished Rewrite. Pretty amazing read, recommend it to all.
Just as he was heading towards the infirmary in quick strides, Hijikata's senses went on the alert as he hears the alarm. In his mind, he knew... it HAD to be the spy.
His stride turns to a sprint.... his faith in his men is great, but for someone to have gone past the infirmary, its now a matter of urgency.
Going on and off.... busy w/ projects.
*As they rejoin Shinpachi, Kagura starts to dash towards the South Shack with Gin and the others*
"Shinpachi, are you ok-aru? They...they didn't EXAMINE you did they-aru?"
*Lets out a big sigh*
"It's been a real weird day-aru. First Gin-chan went from looking like this...
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
...to looking even more pathetic-aru...
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
what else can happen next-aru?"
*Mizuki was running and bumpes into one of the shinsengumi man that was lighting a match* all of sudden It triggered gunpowder right next door shack.
Wondering. Where is my prince. {missing someone}.

NRT Double Peaks revisited
Search Medline for
|May 31, 2005
The standard response waveform of evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) recorded using Neural Response Telemetry (NRT) Recordings is characterized by a negative peak followed by a smaller positive peak. In a small but significant number of cases, however, the response waveform shows a double peak structure
Materials and Methods
One proposed model [Ref. 1] attributes the two peaks to the presence of surviving dendritic structures. The origin of the two peaks has been questioned in that the double peak structure could be merely an artifact.
The new CIC4 research implant from Nucleus allows higher resolution recordings of the ECAP without having to resort to multiple data buffers, and also features several novel stimulus artifact cancellation/reduction techniques which do not depend on forward masking. Neural response recordings with double peaks have also been obtained with the CIC4 implant.
The implications of the results comparing the recordings with the current CIC3 (CI24M) implant and those with the CIC4 implant will be discussed.

Audit finds lack of mine inspectors in Illinois
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — The state department in charge of mine safety lacked enough safety inspectors to comply with Illinois law in 2011 and 2012, according to an audit of the agency released Thursday.
Illinois' auditor general found that the Department of Natural Resources had 10 inspectors to handle the 40-plus mines operating in the state over those two years rather than the 16 required for that number of mines by the state Coal Mining Act. The law requires that mines be inspected once a month.
The audit also said the DNR hadn't established some needed policies to comply with the law, and in some cases hadn't maintained mine-related records.
A spokesman for the department said that, like other DNR operations such as state parks, the state's poor financial health had cut into its mining staff. Illinois faces both a massive government-budget deficit and an unfunded pension obligation that's close to $100 billion.
In fact, there are now nine full-time inspectors after one retired, DNR spokesman Chris McCloud said.
"The state's costly pension issues continue to impact the agency's budget, leaving the department without necessary funding to hire the number of coal mine inspectors as required by state law," McCloud said in an email.
But he said the department hadn't missed any inspections, relying now on the nine full-time inspectors plus five other department employees who are certified to do the work.
A spokesman for a mine-workers union said that agencies that oversee mining in many states are short on money to do their jobs.
"We see this not only in Illinois but in Kentucky and Alabama and West Virginia and Pennsylvania, and at the federal level," United Mineworkers of America spokesman Phil Smith said.
In Illinois, the union represents between 400 and 500 miners and other workers at a single mine and other smaller mining-related operations.
"It can be a dangerous occupation," Smith said. "They need to have somebody else looking out for them."
One Illinois miner died over the two years covered by the audit, according to the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration. The miner, 30-year-old Chad Meyers, was crushed between a machine and the wall of the Saline County mine operated by a subsidiary of Peabody Energy, according to a preliminary MSHA report.
Three Illinois miners died in 2010, the year before the audit period, according to MSHA.
Data on miners injured wasn't immediately available.
Most Illinois miners work in the coal industry. State production actually increased last year after almost two decades of declines because of pollution concerns over the high sulfur content of the state's coal.

RSP's Micro Flexilite front is a versatile LED that is remarkably proficient beam relative to its size, so it's perfect for clutter-free Audax, tourers and extended playtimes on the best bike(s). Weather seals are top-notch and burn times are broadly on par with the competition, although the tiny screws mean batteries are best replaced from the comfort of home, rather than by road or trailside.
The Flexilite is better designed and has more road presence than many similar lights thanks to high quality optical components making the most of the solitary LED. The rubberised bracket is easy to use and remains rock steady, not only around the full complement of handlebar diameters/extension brackets but it also grasps the fork blades securely – no amount of rough stuff has seen it move a millimetre.
The extensive use of rubberised components coupled with a screw-down cover gives it superior weather and shock resistance (submersion, hose and similar tests have made no impression whatsoever). Engaging the switch rewards with a very pure blue-ish hue and surprisingly accurate beam of light for close up work – roadside fettling, pannier rummages and so on. Clear nights in either mode prick driver consciousness better than you'd have any right to expect – you're visible from around 300-450m metres, dropping to approximately 230/350 in murky weather.
Peripheral illumination is surprisingly good too, my only slight misgivings concern burn times. The flashing mode returned a typically frugal 85 hours but the steady mode a disappointing 23 from the single CR2032 battery, which could prove expensive if used regularly over longer periods. It's definitely something to bear in mind - that said we reckon this will be mainly used as a back up light in flashing mode and it does bang out quite a lot of light for a tenner.
Great little light let down by poor economy in steady mode

The next Celebration will be held June 10-13, 2020, in Juneau, Alaska. People are encouraged to reserve hotel rooms early, as space fills up quickly.
For four days every other June, the streets of Juneau fill with Native people of all ages dressed in the signature regalia of clans from throughout Southeast Alaska and beyond. There is traditional song and dance. Arts and crafts. Food. And people speaking local Native languages. This is Celebration, our biennial festival of Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian cultures.
Celebration is one of the largest gatherings of Southeast Alaska Native peoples and is the second-largest event sponsored by Alaska Natives in the State of Alaska. The event draws about 5,000 people, including more than 2,000 dancers. Thousands more watch the event online. A 2012 study showed each Celebration generates an estimated economic impact of $2,000,000.
Prior to European contact, the peoples of the Northwest Coast held many traditional ceremonies in which singing, dancing, formal oratory, and feasting took place. As the economy of the region changed to one based on cash rather than trade and sharing, some Native traditions floundered.Dance, song, traditional oratory, and knowledge of clan protocol were in danger of being lost to history. Realizing this, Native elders created Celebration as a way to bring Native people together to showcase and preserve their traditions and customs.
Celebration is a new tradition. During earlier times, a clan from one moiety would always host a clan from the other moiety. An Eagle clan, for example, might host a Raven clan and, then, the reverse would occur in order that balance, reciprocity, and respect be maintained. Those who danced together as either hosts or guests were from one clan, one side. Now, clan members have scattered in order to pursue careers and personal interests, and the formal system of reciprocal obligation has become more difficult to maintain although traditional ceremonies are still a vital part of Northwest Coast culture. At Celebration, some clan members still gather as single-clan Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian dance groups but most groups at Celebration represent combinations of many clans.
As times have changed, the peoples of the Northwest Coast have adopted revitalized festival traditions while continuing to maintain the old. Although Celebration follows the pattern of a traditional ceremonial it is not a potlatch or memorial party. Adoptions, name giving, memorial services, and other events that are a proper part of those traditional gatherings are not part of Celebration and are observed at other times.
We perpetuate, enhance and share Southeast Alaskan Native culture through our Institute, our store, and our True Southeast visitor experience.

Sean Sasser, of "The Real World: San Francisco," died at age 44, his friend and former castmate Judd Winick confirmed Tuesday.
"Our friend Sean Sasser has died. Our love goes out to his family &husband Michael," Winick tweeted. "We will miss u so much."
Sasser was introduced to the spotlight in the early '90s and known for dating his "Real World" costar Pedro Zamora. Zamora's battle with HIV and AIDS brought international attention to a then-taboo topic, which was covered at length on MTV up until his death at age 22.
Sasser, who exchanged rings with Zamora in a televised commitment ceremony, became an AIDS activist leading up to and after his costar's death.
He later became a pastry chef and found love again with partner Michael Kaplan. Kaplan told Queerty Sasser died of mesothelioma, a rare cancer of the lungs.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

Hello all, my baby is crying every time I offer him my left breast -which no long ago was his favorite side - I'm really concerned!
Here's what's happening:
Yesterday I noticed a really hard area on my left breast. It has almost as big as half of the breast and it was painful to the touch. I called my doctor and she suggested that I had a plugged duct. So I started using a hot pack for several minutes at the time and massaging the affected breast to try to "dissolve" the hard area. My 5 month old baby was nursing form both sides, but I started to pay extra attention to the left one, since I wanted his help sucking to unplug the duct. He really helped.
Last night I felt feverish, feeling cold and my body was aching. My body temp was slightly higher than normal 99.5 F, but it didn't go higher than that. So I decided to rest and go to sleep. My baby continued to nurse normally.
Today I felt A LOT better, the lump in my breast was almost gone - and it never turned pink - so I kept applying the hot pack and massaging the breast. It all helped.
My breast feels softer and a lot better now but it is still a little tender.
The thing is that around 4pm today my baby started crying - which is really rare- every time I tried to feed him from the affected breast, as if he wasn't receiving enough milk and he was hungry. I kept trying to feed him from that side in order to clear the lump, but he continued crying, so I switched to the other breast. That seemed to help, since he started drinking and stopped crying. He acted like that 2 times more.
Before he went to sleep I decided to give him a bottle of previously frozen breast milk because I was worried that he wasn't eating enough. He drank the 4 oz -he complain a little bit- but he drank it all and then I nursed him a little bit too. Again, he wasn't happy with my left breast.
Around midnight he woke up crying - a lot more than usual and acted really hungry. Which is unusual too- I tried again to feed him with the left breast, he drank a little bit from it and he continued crying until I switched him to the other breast. He stopped crying and feel asleep, but he seems hungry to me, as he wasn't getting enough breast milk
This has never happened to me before. I have had a plugged duct in the past but the affected area was smaller and my baby never complain about it, so right now I'm really concerned wondering if he is getting enough milk and what should I do to keep my milk supply.
My baby has been breastfed 100% since he was born and I would like to keep it that way, but I'm afraid about tomorrow, I don't want him to be hungry and I just have 4 oz left from my freezer supply - since I stopped pumping some months ago.
Additional information - After giving him the bottle today I pumped, but I could only get 2 Oz (1 from each side) - which tells me that I'm producing milk, it is just that my baby is rejecting it?
He is having 5 wet diapers a day, but they are specially wet before 3 pm, after 3 pm he has only 1 or 2 slightly wet diapers.
He hasn't pooped in the last 2 days, which is not completely abnormal -since it has happened several times before.
We just went to see his pediatrician last week and she told me he was gaining enough weight.
Please help me! I don't know how to help my little one and I don't want him to be hungry
9:00 am actualization: Baby still cries when I tried to feed him from the left breast. He seems to eat from the right. I tried to pump the left one and I got anything out
