The discards amount to about one-third of the entire North Sea catch, says WWF, an estimate outdone last year by the European Union, which estimated that between 40 and 60 percent of all fish caught by trawlers in the North Sea is discarded.
The report, "Sea Creatures Are Not Rubbish," says that discards of fish that are too small to meet catch quotas or species for which the fishermen have no quota are not accurately measured. This could indicate an even greater level of over-fishing is happening than is currently recognized in official estimates.
"Bycatch is an incredible waste and one of the largest threats to many sea creatures," said Karoline Schacht, fisheries policy officer with WWF-Germany. "The drama happens far away at sea but this unseen wastefulness must come to an end."
WWF is calling for a gradual ban on the practice of discarding bycatch across the entire European Union.
At a meeting in Brussels in September, scientists, administrators and control experts from the EU and Norway, which is not an EU member state, agreed on the "urgent need" to consider concrete measures such as real-time closures and improved gear selectivity, to tackle the problem of discards in the North Sea.

While both parties agree that it is very difficult to entirely eliminate discarding, they have recognized that the current huge waste of valuable food resources cannot be allowed to continue.
"Discarding means a waste of great quantities of valuable fish. It is a major environmental scandal that we must strongly tackle," said European Fisheries Commissioner Joe Borg.
The WWF reports in the case of Dover sole, six kilos of sea creatures are caught and discarded for every kilo of Dover sole that makes it to market.
Similarly, five kilos of unwanted sea animals are discarded for every kilo of Norwegian lobster or scampi sold.
The European Union recently declared that 88 percent of the fisheries stocks of the EU are overfished, compared with 25 percent on average globally. Bycatch is a major contributor to overfishing, the report points out.
Every year several million sharks and up to 250,000 sea turtles are caught as bycatch in fishing operations designed to catch other species.
A special Fish Discards Summit hosted by the Scottish Government in Edinburgh in September heard that fishermen in Scotland are being forced to throw away up to Ł40 million worth of fish every year.
The level of waste was revealed by Fisheries Secretary Richard Lochhead to fishermen, scientists, conservationists and Norwegian government representatives at the meeting called to work out how to reduce the dumping of marketable fish at sea.
"Discards are bad news. Bad news for fishermen, bad news for consumers and bad news for the environment," said Lochhead, who blamed European rules for the discarding of almost a million tonnes of North Sea fish every year.
"I am appalled and frustrated at the scandalous level of waste and the economic and environmental madness discards represent. In what other industry would it be acceptable to throw away so much of what is produced?" Lochhead said.
"Responsible and hard-working skippers are heartbroken because they have to throw away precious fish. That is why they, like me, are determined to tackle the scourge of discards."
The summit kicked off a campaign by the Scottish government to change some of the European rules which force trawlermen to throw away fish which could be landed and sold.
There are a number of reasons why fishermen are currently having to discard large amounts of marketable fish, particularly North Sea cod. One important reason is the mismatch between the quota available for North Sea cod and the increased abundance of the stock.
The Scottish minister says if North Sea cod quotas were increased, fewer fish would be discarded. Making sure the fleet catches less overall - as well as landing more - is an important part of the equation when it comes to reducing discards, he said.
In August, a British trawler triggered an international incident when it was video-taped by Norwegian Coastguard personnel taking a boatload of endangered cod caught in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea and then dumping most of it overboard in UK waters.
WWF is calling for a European-wide discard ban and a bycatch action package. "In the future every fish caught should be landed and allocated to the catch quota," says the conservation organization.
At the same time, WWF would like to see fishermen obligated to use better catch technologies. The conservation group says the bycatch in some fisheries could be reduced by up to 90 percent with better technology.
Scottish government is proposing making fishing nets more selective so that only fish above the minimum landing sizes are caught. Secondly, the Scots would close areas of the sea on a temporary basis where high abundances of certain species are found as has been happening under Scotland's innovative real-time closures scheme or restricting the number of days a boat is allowed to spend at sea.
Commissioner Borg says the EU has proposed a new regulation on the types of fishing gear which would be allowed in the North Sea. This regulation would simplify existing measures and improve the escapement of young fish, he said.
But a legislative initiative against the practice of discarding fish, announced by the European Commission, was recently "torpedoed by the powerful fishery lobby of some member countries," says WWF-Germany.
"That is an outright scandal," said Schacht. "Behind closed doors is an attempt to prevent sustainable fisheries."
In January, on a vote of 616 to 22, the European Parliament adopted a resolution based on a report drafted by Swedish Greens/EFA Member Carl Schlyter to reduce unwanted bycatch and eliminate discards in European fisheries.
Members of Parliament support shifting the emphasis of the Common Fisheries Policy so that the practice of discarding is virtually eliminated. They stressed the urgency of "developing regulations to eliminate this environmentally unsustainable and immoral practice which in extreme cases can account for up to 90 percent of all fish caught."
Yet, nearly nine months later, the practice of discarding continues.

CHICAGO (AP) Jake Arrieta is doing his part to fill the gap left by Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel.
Arrieta pitched well into the eighth inning and Justin Ruggiano hit an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning Friday that sent the Chicago Cubs over the Atlanta Braves 5-4.
Arrieta gave up three runs and four hits in 7 2-3 innings. He struck out six and walked three.
The right-hander is 4-0 with a 1.30 ERA in his last seven starts.
Arrieta said he has taken more of a leadership position after Samardzija and Hammel were traded to Oakland last week.
''I am pretty comfortable with the responsibilities that come along with a role like that. It's something I embrace and look forward to continue to be in this role, to help guys establish themselves and combat the struggles that take place at this level,'' he said.
''Hopefully, help guys start to take off and produce at a high level for us,'' he said.
Arrieta figures to be one of the few mainstays along with All-Stars Anthony Rizzo and Starlin Castro as the Cubs continue to rebuild within the system.
Arismendy Alcantara singled with two outs off Jordan Walden (0-1) in the Cubs ninth and stole second. Ruggiano then got a hit that slipped past shortstop Andrelton Simmons to win it.
''The future is bright. That is very apparent. Guys like Alcantara and we have guys in the pipeline that can definitely help us in the future,'' Arrieta said.
The Braves, who scored the tying run in the top of the ninth on Christian Bethancourt's two-out single, have lost five of six following a nine-game winning streak.
Jordan Schafer stole three bases for Atlanta and was caught stealing once.
''Schafer had a great day. He stole three bags, he got on base, played nice defense. And BJ (Upton) been doing nice in the leadoff spot. I'm happy with those guys at the top of the order. Now we need to keep the line moving, and we will,'' Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said.
Arrieta left with a 4-3 lead but wound up with a no-decision when Cubs closer Hector Rondon (2-3) couldn't hold the lead in the ninth.
Rondon allowed a leadoff double to Jason Heyward in the ninth. After retiring the next two batters, Rondon gave up Bethancourt's single. It was Rondon's third blown save of the season.
The Cubs have won two straight after losing six in a row.
''We were probably a little down a little bit after losing those two guys. They were two big guys in the clubhouse. But we have a tight group and we all pull for each other. We will be all right,'' Ruggiano said.
Freddie Freeman drove in two runs for Atlanta.
Braves starter Alex Wood pitched 5 1/3 innings and allowed four runs on five hits and three walks. The 23-year-old left-hander struck out six.
''I battled through some stuff. I thought we battled hard and scraped for some runs. I thought we played pretty well,'' Wood said.
After retiring the first six batters, Wood gave up a leadoff double to Chris Coghlan in the third inning. Coghlan stole third and scored on Arrieta's perfectly executed squeeze. With two outs, Ruggiano's single drove in Mike Olt to make it 2-0.
Arrieta was unable to hold the lead. He walked Schafer in the fourth and gave up his first hit of the game, a double to Simmons. Freeman and Justin Upton had RBI grounders.
In the sixth, Wood reached on an infield single, his first hit in the majors, and moved up on Schafer's sacrifice bunt. With two outs, Freeman doubled off the ivy in center field for a 3-2 lead.
The Cubs loaded the bases with no outs in the sixth. Junior Lake struck out and broke the bat over his knee. Coghlan hit a tying single and Braves reliever Shae Simmons walked Luis Valbuena on four straight pitches to give the Cubs a 4-3 lead.
NOTES: Cubs INF Emilio Bonifacio started his rehab assignment in Arizona. He's been on the DL with an oblique strain since June 13. ... Rizzo appreciated all the support he got in the push by the team that made him the final NL All-Star voted in by the fans. ''Walked over to the offices, thanked all the front office and the people working behind the scenes to pump it up, to promote it. Very, very appreciative. My family's ecstatic. Come along way, altogether - me, myself, everyone else around me that's coached me, that's helped me out through good times and bad times. It's an accomplishment I'll cherish forever,'' the first baseman said. ... Cubs 2B Darwin Barney was activated from the paternity list. The Cubs recalled Zac Rosscup from Triple-A Iowa and relievers Kyle Hendricks and Blake Parker were optioned to Iowa. ... Braves starter LHP Mike Minor is scheduled to make his second career start against the Cubs on Saturday. In his previous start, he gave up one run in 7 1/3 innings.

Chances are that if you have had braces, an orthodontist took care of your teeth during that time. Orthodontists specialize in:
Essentially, an orthodontist's job is to correct a bad bite, known as a malocclusion.
Crooked teeth may lead to gum disease and early tooth loss. Beautiful smiles and straight teeth can make the teeth much easier to care for. Abnormal tooth enamel wear may be the result of a poor bite. This can make future replacements or repairs difficult. Some investigators feel that malocclusions that are not treated can contribute to headaches and painful jaw joints.
Another important factor is that well-aligned teeth are easier to clean and floss, which helps your gums stay healthy. As we get older, good gum health plays a positive role in overall health.
While children are the main recipients of orthodontic care, about 15 to 20 percent of orthodontic patients are adults. Healthy teeth can be moved at almost any age, though it is easier to detect and prevent potential problems early on. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that all children have an orthodontic screening no later than age 7.
So see the orthodontist early and find the correct diagnosis and treatment you may need.

Hi folks,
A friend of mine has read two ridiculous blogposts by Spencer Ackerman (a leftist hack) in the Danger Room blog, has researched the facts, and sent Ackerman a comprehensive rebuttal by email. He has asked that his rebuttal be published here, as a guest blog post.
– Zbigniew Mazurak
Guest blogpost: Spencer Ackerman caught lying about the sequester
By William Rixon
Below is an email rebuttal I have sent to Ackerman in response to two cretinous blogposts he wrote earlier this month about the impact of the debt ceiling deal (and in particular, the sequester) on the core defense budget. Here it is in full:
Dear Mr Ackerman,
"All of which likely means that massive defense cuts were never really on the table anyway. Even in the face of giant deficits, cutting the defense budget requires debating what U.S. national security strategy ought to be, not shoehorning defense cuts into a political bargain that doesn't materialize."
Wrong. Massive defense cuts have already occurred. They began with the closure of over 50 weapon programs in 2009 and 2010, a decision which then-Secretary Gates cut $330 bn from defense budget projections. Then there was the New START treaty, which is cutting America's nuclear arsenal while allowing Russia to add nuclear weapons. Then there were the $78 bn cuts of January 2011, despite your denials that they took place. Then there was the debt ceiling deal of April 2011, which cut defense spending in real terms. And the first round of the defense cuts ordered by the BCA will excise $465 bn from the defense budget over the next 10 years, i.e. $46.5 bn per decade, starting this fiscal year. By the Heritage Foundation's count, defense has been cut by $754 bn since President Obama took office. If those are not massive defense cuts, then the term has no meaning.
And as your update proves, even Sec. Panetta has now begun to weaken. As it turns out, he doesn't oppose the sequestration mechanism… just the cuts that it would make to defense… but even now, he opposes attempts to undo the sequester or at least protect defense from its impact. President Obama's pressure is evident.
You advertise your previous blog post, which calls the sequester a "myth", wherein, in one of the first paragraphs, you claim "there are lots of ways the Pentagon can still save its bloated budget, much like the kids on Elm Street always stave off Freddy Krueger."
That claim is a blatant lie, just like the vast majority of what you write on the DR blog. The defense budget is not bloated by any objective measure. In raw dollar numbers, it is currently $530 bn under the CR, but will have to be cut to $513 bn as a consequence of the first part of the debt ceiling deal. The former figure amounts to 3.50% and the latter to just 3.49% of America's GDP (which is $14.66 trillion), and both are therefore microscopic. These are the lowest shares of America's GDP devoted to defense since FY1948 (excluding the late 1990s, a fact Gordon Adams is desperately trying to hide). Throughout the entire Cold War except FY1948, defense spending consumed a higher share of GDP, so by your own standard all defense budgets of the Cold War (including that for FY1948, which was also 3.50% of GDP) were bloated. The core defense budget also amounts to less than 15% of the total federal budget, a share even smaller than it was during the Clinton era. Even counting spending on Iraq, Afghanistan, and the DOE's defense-related programs won't help your claim – the corresponding figures for it are, respectively, $630 bn (per the Defense Appropriations Bill passed by the SAC), 4.6% of GDP and 18-19% of the total federal budget. And no, the DOD won't save its budget, even if the sequester is not triggered. As stated above, the core defense budget will be cut in real terms even without the sequester. With the sequester, of course, the cuts (in real terms) will be much deeper.
Then, after presenting Adams as some ultra-credible source, you claimed that:
""But the sequester itself — the act of lowering available resources — won't happen until January 2013. It's justannounced in January 2012, but it doesn't actually happen until January 2013.""
That lie has already been dealt with, but it should also be noted that the DOD operates on the basis of long-term plans, which means that every step and every decision – budgetary, programmatic, or otherwise – is planned years in advance. Therefore, as soon as the deadline passes (tomorrow), the DOD will have to start planning for a post-sequester military, i.e. begin making all the cuts it will have to make under the sequester – close programs, reduce weapon arsenals, pink-slip troops, cancel contracts, and so forth. And once these cuts are made, they will be hard, and in some cases impossible, to reverse (e.g. a shipyard, once closed because of a lack of orders, will not reopen itself when the DOD will finally get enough money to buy ships). So, the oft-repeated claim (which you have repeated on your blog multiple times, and which Adams is also propagating) that defense cuts will wait until January 2013 is a blatant lie. The DOD will have to close programs and pink-slip troops at the beginning of the next calendar year.
You then invoked the upcoming presidential election as supposed "proof" that sequestration will not happen, but that fantasy has already been dealt with above.
Then, you quoted Adams' lies that
""In those circumstances, I don't think the sequester will ever happen," says Adams — even if the Supercommittee fails and sequester becomes allegedly "automatic." Congress and Obama will have a full year to change the law, something that many in Congress already want to do."
But that is only his opinion – the opinion of an utterly discredited, biased, anti-defense leftist from an utterly discredited Administration. So it's irrelevant. Furthermore, the sequester is not "allegedly automatic",it is automatic as per the BCA. That is the law of the land. Congress and Obama will have less than a year to change the law, and Obama has already promised to veto ANY attempts to change it, and in particular, to eliminate the sequester or at least spare defense from its impact.
You then lied that
"Think about it. In order for sequestration to happen, both history and the current political environment would have to be defied. (…) In other words, for the Defense Department to really face its nightmare scenario, the laws of political and legislative gravity would have to be suspended."
This is clearly wrong. The history of America's defense spending – since you've invoked it – speaks against you. Defense spending was cut severely in the 1940s, in the 1970s, in the 1990s, and – less severely, but nonetheless significantly – in the 1950s and under President Obama. If Washington could gut the military three times, it can surely do so now, as I saw first-hand when I served in the military in the 1970s, during and after the Vietnam War. The current political environment consists of President Obama, Democrats zealous to protect domestic programs and cut defense, and Congressional Republicans who routinely capitulate to Obama's demands.
Your invocation of Congressional Republicans and of defense industry lobbyists in the paragraph are omitted is so pathetic and so desperate it's not even worth quoting. They have a 0-6 record of losing against President Obama and the Democrats. It's unlikely they will win this time.
You also claimed that:
"Those cuts, you'll recall,made outgoing Defense Secretary Robert Gates uneasy almost as soon as Obama announced them in April — and Gates was the guy who had to experience kabuki Congressional angst that his "efficiencies initiative," which cut no money out of the defense budget, was itself too big a "cut." That all seems like a fading dream. The Budget Control Act and the Supercommittee it created changed the terms of the debate. The ten-year, $450 billion (or $463 billion, or $350 billion, depending on whose numbers you trust, the Pentagon's or Congress') in cuts it imposed turned into a baseline. The prospect of sequestration became the bigger danger: cuts that would add another $500 billion or so on top of the existing ones. That's why McHugh now tells defense reporters "we're pretty confident we can accommodate" the $450 billion cut."
Evidently you never bothered to listen to Gates. Gates was always of the opinion that the $400 bn cut (which Obama announced in April, when no one was even thinking about a debt ceiling deal), which later grew to $450 bn as a result of the debt ceiling deal, was painful, hard to execute, and necessitating tough choices, but nonetheless survivable, whereas the sequestration would gut the military. His successor, as well as the Service Chiefs, have been saying the same all along.
Taking cues from Adams, who seems to be your only source, you further quoted him as saying
"A $450 billion cut "is an eight percent projected decline over ten years," Adams explains. "That's laughably easy to live with. That's absurd. You know what a trillion dollars would be? [A decline of] 17 percent of projected resources. Even $1 trillion — a 'doomsday, oh my God, security will fail all over the map' [scenario] — is just 17 percent of projected resources.""
Both of his claims are lies. Firstly, the $465 bn cut will not be "absurd" nor "laughably easy to live with". What is absurd and laughable is making claims like those Adams makes. The $465 bn cut, as testified by Panetta, will impose real pain on the military, and reportedly, more than half of that cut will come from weapon programs. But defense cuts will not stop there. The sequester is now guaranteed to kick in, which means that defense will be cut by another $600 bn, in other words, by $1.065 TRILLION over the next decade, and contrary to Adams' claim, this will be more than 20% of the core defense budget. (GWOT spending will be unaffected, but is slated to shrink automatically as US troops withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan). So Adams' claims are, as always, blatant lies.
"The generals aren't stupid. Neither is Panetta. Neither is McHugh. By publicly warning that sequestration would be "catastrophic," they're increasing the pressure on Congress to roll back sequestration in 2012 if it does occur. For the Pentagon, it's not a budgetary nightmare. It's a dream that's very likely to come true."
It's hard to see how sequestration would be a dream. And if by the "dream" you meant rolling back sequestration, you're wrong again, for the reasons stated above.
So each of your lies, and those of Gordon Adams, have been debunked. You are as ignorant as you are arrogant. Do you realize that you discredit yourself and DR with every ridiculous blog post you write? You would be well advised not to write about defense issues any longer. Further garbage posts about these issues will only serve to discredit you further.
William Rixon
COMMENT BY ZBIGNIEW MAZURAK: Rixon send his letter to Ackerman before the debate. The debate has now been held, and Ackerman was utterly disproven, as usual. Not one candidate, not even one, pledged to undo the cuts that the sequester could make, although Rick Perry and Mitt Romney – alone among the 8 Republican candidates on stage – did criticize them in deservedly harsh terms. But even they didn't pledge to undo these defense cuts.

Marius Zaromskis Smashes Through DREAM.10 Welterweight GP Finals; Aoki and Filho Also Win
(Zaromskis vs. High. Props to MMA Linker.)
We should have known there would be trouble after Hayato "Mach" Sakurai needed seven and a half extra hours to make weight for today's DREAM's welterweight GP finals. The tournament favorite might have been fighting through exhaustion when he met Marius Zaromskis in the semis, in a bout marked by wild striking exchanges. Sakurai absorbed the more damaging blows, and the fight was halted about four minutes in so that doctors could check on a spurting gash under Mach's left eye. When it was finally restarted after a long break, Zaromskis measured up Sakurai then threw a high left kick that put his lights out. A few more punches on the ground, and it was game over.
On the other side of the bracket, Jason High scored an upset of his own, handing jiu-jitsu juggernaut Andre Galvao his first MMA loss in a very close decision fight; one judge gave it to Galvao for his submission attempts in the first round, while the other two saw it for High due to his superior striking in the second. But the thrill of victory wouldn't last long for High, as Zaromskis scored another head kick knockout — this time with the right leg — in their finals match.
In non-tournament action, Shinya Aoki outpointed Vitor Ribeiro in a disappointingly dull 15-minute bout, Dong Sik Yoon had to quit just a minute into his fight against Jesse Taylor after suffering a foot injury, and Paulo Filho survived a brutal striking assault from Melvin Manhoef and won the fight via armbar in what might be the leading contender for comeback fight of 2009. Complete results and more DREAM.10 fight videos are after the jump.Read More DIGG THIS

G1606, Reviewed October 1993
The tables in this publication may be used to find culvert and flood gate size for bottomland drainage up to 640 acres.
A formula frequently used for calculating drainage flow rates of cultivated areas from one to one hundred square miles area in the Midwest is:
Q = 37 M.833 where
M = square miles of watershed area
Q = design flow rate in cubic feet per second. This corresponds to the "C" drainage curve.
The exponent (.833) being less than 1.0 implies that as the area increases (M gets larger), the flow rate per square mile is decreasing, even though the total flow rate is increasing. Local ponding near the outlet is expected. For small acreages, very little damage is expected provided the outlet can flow freely. If outlets are closed due to high stage outside the levee area, then the period of ponding increases and no drainage may occur. In some cases pump drainage may be necessary.
Use of a formula such as the one given has developed from practical field experience with drainage in several states. It is usually used on areas above two sections in drainage area.
Table 1 lists flow rates calculated from the formula above and simpler 2 inches per day and 1-1/2 inches per day rates. It is evident from the table that areas less than a half section might be figured at 2 inches per day and areas between one-half and one section can be figured at 1-1/2 inches per day.
Table 1
Design flow rates
The Natural Resources Conservation Service in Missouri uses a 4 inches per day design flow rate up to 60 acres. Double the values in the 2 inches per day column if you use this criteria. If no ponding near the outlet is the goal, then the higher rates must be used. The final choice will be influenced by the price of the installation.
If some hill land drainage must be handled by the same culvert, double the hill land acreage and add that number to the number of bottomland acres. Then choose a design flow rate.
G1518 gives a procedure for estimating runoff from small watersheds. The assumptions and factors are explained in the first column of that publication. Using that procedure, the peak rate of runoff for a six month return period for 80 acres of row cropland in Callaway county on an average soil similar to Shelby loam, in infiltration characteristics with average 0.5 percent slope, and outlet near a corner, can be expected to be:
Q = 205 x 1 x 1 x 0.5 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 0.2 = 20.5 cfs.
Our design flow rate from Table 1 for drainage culvert and gate selection is 6.7 cfs for 2 inches per day or 13.3 cfs for 4 inches per day. This suggests temporary ponding will occur as often as twice a year on the average.
Select the appropriate culvert size. The flow rate through the culverts follows a square root law:
Q = C A x the square root of 2 gh
Table 2 gives some of the possible flow rates. The assumptions here are full pipe flow and culvert lengths of 50 feet and 100 feet. The low head condition is water depth of 1.5 feet above the top of the culvert plus one-half the diameter for the 50-foot culvert and 2 feet above culvert top plus one-half the diameter for the 100-foot culvert. The higher head condition in Table 2 is 3.5 feet above the top of the tube plus one-half the diameter for the 50-foot culvert and 4 feet plus one-half the diameter for the 100-foot culvert.
Table 2
Culvert flow rates, cfs
At low head a canopy or hood inlet or horizontal baffle will be necessary to cause full pipe flow. Without some entrance control, the normal swirling action of the water will entrap air and reduce capacity.
Many possible head conditions may prevail in a field installation. The sketches suggest some of the possible arrangements. In drainage work, the head is normally changing continually. After runoff ceases, the head gradually falls to zero. The head to use in the table may be thought of as average or nondamaging head.
Head is measured from the level of water above the entrance to the level of water above the outlet or to the center line of the outlet opening, whichever is higher.
If a swinging gate is to be used to prevent floodwaters backing into a field, the culvert should slope less than 1 percent. The flood gate can be adjusted to close by gravity if the culvert is no steeper. If there is sufficient difference in elevation between the field level and usual outlet discharge level, a drop entrance may be used in lieu of a steep slope for the culvert. This makes effective use of the available head.
Where the available head is quite limited, consider parallel small culverts rather than a single large tube. The sketch below illustrates the reason. Tubes flowing partially full carry only a fraction of the flow in the tables.
If seepage problems are expected, anti-seep collars may be needed. Seepage problems are expected where water is ponded for long periods. They also occur if the bottom half of the culvert is not carefully backfilled during construction.
Levees are frequently poorly constructed. Excess seepage or failure of the levee after a few days of saturation frequently occurs.
Coarse sandy soils should not be used for levees. Minimum standards for small projects should include a 4-foot top width and 2:1 side slopes or flatter. Dozer-built levees should be built in 6 inch lifts, with each lift spread and smoothed with the dozer blade and tractor tracks.
If farm machinery must travel on the levee, the top width should be 12 feet at time of construction. If the levee must stand more than 4 feet of backwater, then it must be very carefully built. Consider using rubber-tired carryscraper equipment for earth moving to give extra compaction as it travels the length of the levee while loaded.

Spinner Monty Panesar was given an England increment contract for 2012-13 on Thursday as a reward for his fine recent form.
The Sussex left-armer was previously on a central contract with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) until 2009 when his deal was not renewed.
However, he made a huge impact in the historic series win in India before Christmas and his value to the national team was further highlighted this week when Graeme Swann had to pull out of the Test series in New Zealand to have surgery on his elbow.
Non-contracted players can earn an England increment contract via a points system and Panesar qualifies, having played three Test matches against India and also the current Test match against New Zealand.
"This award reflects the contribution Monty has made to the Test team during the winter and I would like to congratulate him on his achievements," ECB national selector Geoff Miller said.
The ECB awards up to 16 central contracts of 12 months duration and that wage replaces their county salary, although the county retains the player's registration.
The ECB also offers additional 12-month contracts, known as increment contracts, to players who are involved in international squads but are not established as key figures in the Test team.
With these increment contracts, the county continues to pay the player's salary while the ECB pay an incremental salary. The county receives compensation from the ECB for matches missed while on England duty.

When Microsoft released the new SQL Server 2008 R2 product line, it also introduced a new edition of SQL Server: SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse. The Parallel Data Warehouse edition is quite different from other editions of SQL Server. Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about the Parallel Data Warehouse edition.
1. What is SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse?
Formerly code-named Madison, SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse is essentially the SQL Server equivalent to the Windows Server High Performance Computing (HPC) edition. The Parallel Data Warehouse edition will utilize Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) scale-out architecture to support very large data warehouses. It's decidedly not a low-end offering—Microsoft is licensing it at $57,489 per processor.
2. How is it different from other editions of SQL Server?
Unlike the other editions of SQL Server which are software-only products, the Parallel Data Warehouse edition is a combination hardware and software offering. You can't just buy SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse edition from Microsoft and install it on one of your own severs as you can with the other editions of SQL Server. Instead, you purchase SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse from one of Microsoft's partners, which are HP, Dell, IBM, and Bull. Each of the different partners provides a variety of different sizes of system configurations.
3. Is the Parallel Data Warehouse edition the same thing as the Fast Track Data Warehouse?
No. The Fast Track Data Warehouse and the Parallel Data Warehouse edition are different. SQL Server Fast Track Data Warehouse is a set of reference hardware configurations that are available from several different Microsoft partners. These hardware configurations have been optimized by each of the vendors to provide excellent out-of-the-box performance for data warehousing implementations. However, Fast Track Data Warehouse system configurations are standard Symmetrical Multi Processing (SMP) systems that run the SQL Server Standard, Enterprise, or Datacenter editions.
4. Who is it targeted toward?
It's targeted toward organizations that have very, very large data warehousing requirements. Solutions from the different partners are designed to support data warehouses ranging from 10TBs to 1+ PBs. The Parallel Data Warehouse edition is designed for businesses whose data warehousing requirements push the limits of a standalone SQL Server implementation.
5. How is it architected?
With the other editions of SQL Server, queries are processed within one physical instance of a database using that system's CPUs, memory, and storage. The Parallel Data Warehouse edition's "appliance" consists of a Control Node and multiple Compute Nodes. Tables are partitioned across multiple Compute Nodes where each node has its own CPU, memory, and storage. Since the data is distributed across multiple Compute Nodes, the Parallel Data Warehouse edition is able to process queries in parallel where each node is acting on its own data. This enables the queries for these large tables to be completed much faster than processing them on a single SMP system. To add additional scalability to a Parallel Data Warehouse system, you simply add more Compute Nodes.
You can find out more about the SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse at Getting Started with Parallel Data Warehouse and also from the Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse website.

PELHAM, N.Y. -- United States and Mexican authorities are now cooperating in the search for world traveler and Pelham native Harry Devert, who was last heard from on Jan. 25 via text message.
Devert's family has been participating in conference calls with United States and Mexican authorities, according to a post made on the search's Facebook page.
According to the post, they feel they are getting the assistance they need but are reaching out to worldwide media. Today, groups of volunteers already in Mexico will begin to search for him on foot.
The family has also released pictures of Devert's unique tattoos, which may be key in identifying him.
The 32-year-old 1999 Pelham High School graduate is an avid world traveler who reportedly would drop off the grid for several weeks at a time, making little contact with anyone.
Devert's last text message, sent to his girlfriend via WhatsApp?, mentioned the dangers of traveling in certain areas in Mexico, which is notorious for kidnappings and drug cartel wars.
His Instagram account, which he updates frequently, has also been dormant since Jan. 22, when he last checked in from Uriangato, Mexico.
According to reports, his mother, New Rochelle resident Ann Devert, has filed paperwork for an emergency passport.
She hopes to travel to Mexico as soon as Friday, when the paperwork would be filed and completed.

Federal Halloween Monsters
Too many knocks on the door
By Glenn Mollette
It seems that America is living in perpetual Halloween. It's like Bill Murray's movie Groundhog Day. We constantly relive Halloween and we're not laughing. The same monsters keep coming and coming to America's door but they want more than candy. The monsters come in the form of the Afghanistan war, Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid.
The average American doesn't mind what we spend on defense. We rejoice in our freedom and want to support our troops. Most of us believe our military earns their money and deserve more. The rub comes in the fact that we are sick and tired of Afghanistan. In the middle of our budget crisis we were severely reminded by the death of more American troops that the Afghanistan war is very alive.
The loss of more life is a cruel visit by the ugliest monster of all. The knock on the door that one of our children has been killed is the greatest of all nightmares. Mr. President, give the command, get us out of Afghanistan. This would save our country approximately 100 billion dollars a year. We could use this money to do a few things at home but most importantly we could avoid more senseless loss of life.
Social Security is America's frequent treat or trickster. Fifty-eight million Americans are glad and can hardly wait each month. Every month the social security check or deposit is welcomed. Unfortunately the trick is the growing bite the government wants back in taxes. Plus, we are incurring more and more debt to keep the system going. We need 816 billion dollars this year to keep the checks rolling. This amount is only going to grow. The system will not sustain itself and all of us must be willing to be a part of the solution.
Medicare and Medicaid have the biggest and deepest sack of all. This is no little monster. It stands at the door totally unsatisfied for one treat but keeps nodding and shaking the bag for more and more. We will spend over 732 billion dollars on Medicare and Medicaid this year. The projections for the next ten years are scarier. At the forefront of this hungry monster are medical providers who bill our government excessive costs. One physician told me he always bills Medicare or the insurance company three times the amount that he expects to be paid. This same physician would never give me a cash price for a treatment I was personally seeking. He asked me to change insurance companies because my current company would not pay him what he wanted. If our government is going to continue to pay the hospitals, nursing homes and doctors it must get control of the excessive, abusive and fraudulent charges made by many providers. Once we get sick they show up at our doors and stay there until they have financially and emotionally drained us.
We could survive Halloween once a year. For most Americans there are too many knocks on the door from the same monsters and we're tired of them.

A10 Networks Customers Not Impacted By Narrow Patent Injunction in Brocade Ruling
Products with Re-designed, Non-infringing Elements Will Ship Immediately
Jan 11, 2013, 01:45 EST
SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- A10 Networks, Inc., the technology leader in Application Networking, announced that on January 10, 2013, Magistrate Judge Paul Grewal of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California granted A10's motion for a new trial on patent damages and rejected Brocade Communications Systems Inc.'s ("Brocade") request for a broad injunction on the basis that it "overreaches." The Court instead entered a narrowly-tailored injunction against certain products. The Court explicitly held that "[c]ustomers of A10 who have already purchased and continue to use infringing AX Series devices shall not be affected by this injunction." A10 Networks will appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to overturn the jury's verdict.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130103/SF36188LOGO)
Existing customers and users can continue to use and receive support for their current AX products. The Court also held that "if A10 can design around the infringing features, A10 may continue to sell the AX Series without the infringing software," and the public "may continue to enjoy the non-infringing features of the product." To that end, A10 has completed development and testing of applicable, non-infringing elements, and will ship AX Series products with the redesigned software immediately.
"We are our industry's leading innovator, and this ruling will not affect our customers, our partners, or our progress," said Lee Chen, CEO of A10 Networks. "We have already designed around the issue, completed rigorous testing of non-infringing software, and will ship AX Series products immediately to serve our outgoing and future orders."
While the court also denied A10's motion to vacate the liability and damages awarded on Brocade's copyright infringement claim, A10 has long since replaced the allegedly infringing code, and will appeal the damages award.
The ruling will have no material negative impact on A10's business or financial strength. "The financial markets recognize the strength of our cash position, our customer base, and our customer and innovation pipeline," added Greg Straughn, CFO of A10 Networks. "We therefore have substantial access to the debt and equity markets should that ever become helpful."
A10 has always acted lawfully and properly, and it will appeal the jury's verdict and the court's rulings before the Federal Circuit. The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office has already rejected the patents that Brocade asserted in their reexamination procedure, and the Federal Circuit will take that into account in its analysis upon our appeal.
A10 Networks' novel architecture and innovations in Layer 4-7 Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) has led to the success of its products, including the AX Series product line. A10 Networks' unique platforms and technology deliver industry-leading Application Networking solutions that accelerate, optimize, and secure customers' web sites and applications. A10's flagship AX Series platforms deliver solutions for Application Delivery/Server Load Balancing, IPv6 Migration, and Cloud Computing & Virtualization. A10 Networks' products are deployed across numerous verticals, including customers of all sizes in the service provider, Web portal, financial, education, manufacturing, technology, and other markets.

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - Columbia-Richland Fire Chief Aubrey Jenkins is back on the job only weeks after retiring from his position.
City officials say they interviewed four other candidates, including one from out-of-state, but decided to rehire the former chief at the salary he was making when he retired. His first day was Monday.
Jenkins retired on October 18 to avoid a change in the South Carolina State Retirement System. He made it clear that he planned to reapply for the open post.
According to an internal e-mail sent to fire department employees in October, Jenkins said he was going to leave his post due to changes in the state employees retirement plan that will put limits on earnings for retirees effective Jan. 3, 2012.
"It is my intention to retire prior to this implementation date, as this restriction will affect my ability to continue in my chosen profession in the future in South Carolina," Jenkins said in the e-mail.
"I believe there is much work to be done and I would very much like to be a part of that," continued Jenkins.
Mayor Steve Benjamin said he appreciated the chief's more than three decades in public service, but said if chief wanted his old job back, he would receive no preferential treatment.
"I understand he intends to reapply for his position. Under our system of government that decision rests with the city manager. The city manager will take all qualified applicants and, at the end of the day, will make a conscience decision on who the next chief of the fire department will be," said Benjamin.
Deputy Fire Chief Harry Tinsley served as interim chief until Jenkins was rehired.

Walking the supplement area of the Expo West 2012 show floor, "whole food" was everywhere—but somewhat ironically, it was packed inside pill bottles.
At the Nature's Way's booth, there were posters promoting the Alive! line's new "whole food" (and plant-based, a twin trend) calcium. Garden of Life touted the 22 organically grown fruits and vegetables in its Vitamin Code and other products. New Chapter, which prefers to call its products "supplemental food," introduced condition-targeted products with its signature "food-complexed" nutrients. And MegaFood and Natural Vitality both launched new lines that represent unique takes on the whole food theme.
"There's a difference between USP and our products. The body recognizes and incorporates it better, there's a longer half-life, antioxidant levels are higher," said New Chapter's Vice President of Science and Innovation Graham Rigby. Enzymes and coenzymes (and sometimes probiotics) in food-based vitamins allow better absorption, advocates say. Whole food supplements are gentle on even empty or sensitive stomachs.
To a foodie like me, getting nutrients in a form closest to Mother Nature sounds great—and it's certainly a concept that's gaining traction with consumers. But my rational mind asks: Where's the scientific proof that whole food supplements are more effective? And with various label terms being thrown around—food-based, whole food, or food-complexed?—how does your average shopper figure out what that really means when it comes to specific brands?
I've also heard the contrarian, mainstream science argument: Doctors say that therapeutically, higher nutrient doses are usually needed to be effective in the body. Can a couple of tablets or capsules of dehydrated food alone actually contain an adequate dose of naturally occurring vitamins? Is it more nutritious if it's grown in the soil than a lab?
I have more thoughts on this topic—I actually lean toward whole-food supplements as higher quality overall—but I'd love to hear what you think. When it comes to supplements, do you buy the "whole food is better" argument? Why or why not?

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A federal judge has set bond a former Kansas doctor accused of illegally having a handgun as a convicted felon.
Lawrence Simons, of Wichita, has been jailed since his arrest last month. U.S. District Judge Monti Belot on Monday set a $50,000 surety bond in the case.
The ex-doctor was indicted on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm, ammunition and controlled substances. He has a 2010 felony conviction for unlawfully distributing prescription drugs.
A magistrate judge had refused to set bail, saying he needed to assure the safety of the community. Simons then asked Belot to review that decision.
Prosecutors say he gave a bondsman a gun as partial payment for bailing him out of jail in April in an unrelated criminal threat case.

Before I thought of Holy Grail, the write-up made me think of the beginning of "Life, The Universe, and Everything," with Arthur leaving his cave with a rabbit bone in his beard.
"Follow the white rabbit."
In regards to the subtitle: rabbits are not rodents. They are lagomorphs.
This seems to be the only appropriate place for this photo:
Umm... Sorry Woot - rabbits and hares are lagomorphs, and more related to the pika than any rodent. "They" changed the classification back in the early part of the 20th century.
Quick question:
I'm kinda in that weird place where some mediums are too small on me, and some larges are too big. What size should I get?

Large. Trust me I wear all large shirts normally and the large woot shirts are just big enough for me. When in doubt go bigger!
awesome sent it to my daughter.
Please. Kill yourselves now. All of you.

Oh yes, the hipster has arrived!
Finally, something to spend my coupon on
There needs to be more shirts like this one.
I'd be scared now if someone tell me that his spirit animal is rabbit.
I'd be more than happy to... but you first.
Just bought for my two year old. His daycare teachers are in for a surprise when it's naptime. Ha!
Of course, I may have to 'splain the sword and skull on the cute bunny shirt.
Ah, too bad this wasn't offered on wednesday. Then I could have justified overnight shipping and had it in time for display at work friday.
You could get a large then shrink it to death in the wash/dryer. I actually thought my Woot WS shirts looked long and some too wide so I plopped them in the dryer on high heat and they all shrunk down the the same size. The shrinkage was quite substantial if you're worrying about the Large being too big. I swear my shirts shrunk an inch or two width and height.
Anyways fellow Wooters, the best part of this shirt for me, we routinely turn the lights off in the lab to look at DNA bands, so I won't even have to find excuses to get people in the dark with me.
This is so awesome!!! Congrats Lucky!
If only we had the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! 'Tis one of the sacred relics Brother Maynard carries with him! Brother Maynard! Bring up the Holy Hand Grenade!
A-Ha! Nicely played, Lucky! Congrats.
I was a little nonplussed by the 'earbones', but ultimately decided evil-looking horns are not out of place here. Cool!
If you do doubt your courage, or your strength, don't by this shirt, for Death awaits you all, with nasty, sharp, pointy teeth... of people like urocyon.
Coolest. Shirt. Ever.
A Monty Python design! How unexpected and fresh! The best part is, no one will ever see the joke. Ever.
This shirt tells the world: "No, I'm not a perv, I just want you to come in this dark closet with me so I can show you something funny."
Glow in the dark shirts on here are usually extremely clever. My issue is I can't think of an application in my daily life where I'm walking from light to dark. This shirt is for wearing out at night so your friends see it as you exit buildings in unfortunately ill lit parking lots?
If you think about it, the killer rabbit was protecting the Black Beast of Arrrrrggggghhhh. Honey Badger's got nothing on this bunny in the department of bad-assery!
This is the perfect theme park shirt! Just think of all the dark rides with black lights that would really make this shirt glow.
First stop - Haunted Mansion at Disney!
stabila711 wrote:I have always wondered...how well does the glow in the dark work?
It depends on the quality of the paint and how long it is exposed directly to light. I still have a Jurassic Park shirt that glows in the dark beautifull (actually, the same effect...during the day it's a detailed T-rex and the glow part is a skeleton)...and I got that as a child when the movie originally came out. It was always washed with the regular laudnry and dried in the drier.
Another shirt I have from around the same time is the same quality, and then another one I have from about 200-something (whenever Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy came out) works pretty well too...but I'd say it isn't as vivid as the JP one.
So...it depends. Judging from Woot's usual quality...I think it would show well, but you do have to make sure it gets decent light exposure for some time. Sunlight is best.
YEAH a Monty Python Reference! KILLER RABIT! BIG FAN of monty python and the holy grail ! whats that a cute little rabbit..... NO RUN AWAY RUN AWAY...loll love it! great job!
I don't think there is really any way of being sure what you'll get. The lion one I ordered a few weeks ago in size Large was absolutely enormous! I've always bought Large and never had a real issue until that shirt. I haven't even worn it. I keep washing it in hopes that it will shrink up enough to wear it one day. BUT, if some Mediums are too small on you, I'd get a Large, because it's better to have one too big than too little.

Yes! And Night Of The Lepus would be a lot better if they had skeletonized, flesh-eating bunnies!
Well my last Glow in the dark shirt didn't work well at all. Anytime i dragged someone under my bed they were not impressed at all. Yet I still have to order this in hopes I can drag a really cute dental student somewhere dark and impress her.
Is it in bad taste to wear this whilst I film my Live-Action Watership Down Movie???

One of the most fitting ways to celebrate Mardi Gras is with this hearty, bold-flavored specialty of New Orléans featuring shrimp and spicy sausage.
A gradual layering of flavors starts with pan-fried bacon and chorizo sausage followed by the holy trinity of onion, bell pepper and celery. Sautéed in the same pan, they pick up all the savory, browned bits of flavor clinging to the bottom.
The tomatoes, spices and crumbled bacon go in next to mingle and make friends with the vegetables, then finally the cooked sausage and the chicken broth.
The shrimp cooks almost instantly, within a moment or two of hitting the pan so are mixed in at the end. You risk making them inedible, with a texture closely resembling rubber bands if added sooner.
Jambalaya usually calls for cooking the rice in the pot along with everything else so it can soak up all those juicy flavors. For a light and fluffy texture I cook mine separately. A method called "white" jambalaya.
To make super fluffy rice rinse well in a colander beforehand to remove excess starch and don't lift the lid while it cooks! As tempting as it is. Once cooked, remove from heat and allow to sit for a few minutes with the lid on, then run a fork through it to fluff up before serving.
Shrimp and spicy sausage come together to make this hearty, bold-flavored specialty of New Orleans, a fitting way to celebrate Mardi Gras!
- Heat a large deep-sided skillet over medium heat and add sausage and bacon. Cook turning sausage occasionally until browned well on all sides. When bacon is cooked crisp remove to a plate lined with paper towels. When sausage is browned remove to a large cutting board.
- Carefully drain off most of the grease; add a tablespoon or two of olive oil, the butter, onion, pepper and celery. Season well with salt and pepper. Cook stirring often over medium-low heat until onion is translucent about 7 minutes.
- Add garlic, tomatoes, thyme, oregano, red pepper and bay leaves; crumble the bacon and add that too; cook 5 minutes on medium, stirring often. Slice the sausage into 3/4" rounds and mix in.
- Stir in chicken broth and parsley. Season again with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer; cook 25-30 minutes at a constant simmer, stirring every few minutes.
- Meanwhile rinse 1 cup of rice well in a colander. Bring 2 cups water to boil in a medium saucepan and stir in rice, bring to a boil, reduce heat to slow simmer, put a lid on the pan and cook about 20 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed. For fluffy rice no peeking under the lid! Turn the rice off and allow to sit with the lid on until the jambalaya is ready.
- Add the shrimp to a colander and squeeze the lemon over them, toss well and allow any excess lemon to drain. Add the shrimp and green onion to the pan; stir in and remove from heat. Allow to sit 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork. Remove the bay leaves. Serve over top of rice.
-To cook the rice in the same pot mix the rice in with the chicken broth (step 4) and add an extra cup of broth; cook with the lid on. If after cooking the recommended time there is still a lot of liquid left take the lid off and continue cooking until some of it has evaporated off (before adding the shrimp).

$250,000 bail stays for suspect in Bedford home invasion
By JAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
SALEM, Mass. - Prosecutors say they will work with New Hampshire authorities to expedite the case against a man who will be charged with the attempted murder of a Bedford, N.H., anesthesiologist and his wife.
An Essex County Superior Court judge agreed Tuesday to keep bail for Charles Normil, 32, of Lawrence, Mass., at $250,000 cash. Normil is wanted for the Nov. 24 break-in at the Bedford, N.H., home of Dr. Eduardo W. Quesada.
Normil allegedly stabbed Dr. Quesada, 52, several times in the head with a screwdriver and attacked and sexually assaulted Sonia Quesada. The attack caused her to lose sight in her left eye.
Tuesday's arraignment was for charges Normil faces in Methuen, Mass., where he allegedly broke into an apartment building on Dec. 14. Normil pleaded not guilty Tuesday to charges of home invasion, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and larceny of property worth over $250. He was indicted on Feb. 21 in Essex County.
Few details have been made public about the New Hampshire home invasion, including the identity of a second suspect in federal custody.
On Jan. 7, police were called to a condominium belonging to Dr. Quesada's mother, where they found Sonia Quesada dead and a pile of prescription pills nearby. Dr. Quesada was also found unconscious at the home.
Police say that Sonia Quesada's death was not a homicide, and unrelated to the home invasion.
The motive behind the Quesada break-in appears to be for financial gain, according to prosecutors.
Assistant District Attorney Andrew Camelio asked Judge John Lu on Tuesday for an April 2014 trial date for Normil so that his office could coordinate with New Hampshire prosecutors on their pending case.
"We are going to cooperate with them to make sure these cases move as quickly as possible," Camelio said during the hearing.
Normil is facing a fugitive from justice charge in the New Hampshire case until he can be returned to a courtroom in the Granite State to be formally arraigned on charges related to the break-in.
The Hillsborough County Attorney's Office expects to charge Normil with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of first-degree assault, and single counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault, falsifying physical evidence and burglary.
Normil is due back in court for his Massachusetts case on May 28.
