The first shot of the Cotton Revolution was fired at the 2002 Beltwide Cotton Conferences in Nashville, Tenn., when Delta and Pine LandCompany (D&PL) introduced the much-anticipated DP 555 BG/RR as one of its new varieties for 2003.
Grown on a limited basis in the United States in 2002, DP 555 BG/RR, known as "Triple Nickel" among growers and consultants, is a mid- to full-season Bollgard/Roundup Ready stacked-gene variety that offers potential for both high yield and good fiber quality.
DP 555 BG/RR showed superior yield potential, with excellent lint turnout in 2002. Early test results also indicate the potential for good fiber quality says D&PL senior agronomist Jim Presley.
"From the Coastal Plains to the Delta it has tested well in a variety of soil types," he says.
Triple Nickel yielded 1,922 pounds of lint per acre in the 2002 University of Georgia Irrigated Later Maturity Cotton Cultivar Trials conducted in Tifton. It yielded 1,565 pounds per acre in the university's dryland trials in Tifton.
DP 555 BG/RR also performed well in Louisiana and Georgia the past two seasons, and some growers of DP 555 BG/RR in Mississippi and Alabama had excellent crops despite harvest-disrupting rainstorms last year.
Developed in D&PL's Australian breeding program, DP 555 BG/RR appears to represent a positive development in cotton genetics, says Dr. Don Keim, D&PL cotton breeder for the lower Mid-South.
"This is the first of many new cotton varieties coming out of our extensive worldwide breeding and testing programs that will combine the potential for both high yield and good fiber quality, with the transgenic technologies farmers so widely desire," Keim says.
Other new picker varieties from D&PL will become available in 2003, but in very limited supplies. They include:
DP 444 BG/RR: Tested as DPLX00S13 BR around the Belt in 2002, DP 444 BG/RR has produced high yields with good fiber packages in testing to date.
Similar to PM 1218 BG/RR, DP 444 BG/RR is an early-maturing variety that has performed well in many areas of the Cotton Belt. Once-over picking has been the norm on DP 444 BG/RR.
DP 449 BG/RR is a slightly later-maturing variety than DP 444 BG/RR that has exhibited potential for good yields and fiber characteristics. In early testing, the variety trends toward not producing high micronaire, even in high micronaire conditions.
DP 449 BG/RR has some Western cotton lines in its background, yet performed well in tests in the Delta region.
"This variety has performed well in high-heat environments of the Deep South and Southwest in testing to date," Presley says.
DP 493: In testing to date, this mid- to full-season conventional variety has produced fiber characteristics that should be attractive to textile mills.
It also has shown good yield potential in tests conducted across the southern tier of the Cotton Belt.
"DP 493 has performed well in testing on a variety of soil types and, accordingly, should be a good choice for Bt refuge acres," says Presley.
"In testing, it has shown both high yield potential and a good fiber quality package."
Delta and Pine Land Company is a commercial breeder, producer and marketer of cotton planting seed, as well as soybean seed, in the Cotton Belt. For almost 90 years, the company has used its extensive plant breeding programs drawing from a diverse germplasm base to develop improved varieties.
Delta and Pine Land (NYSE: DPL), headquartered in Scott, Miss., has offices in eight states and facilities in several foreign countries. For more information, please refer to the company's website at www.deltaandpine.com.

This weekend has something for everyone: a sci-fi flick, a drama, and an animated film. What's more, all of them seem to have something to offer.
The Boss Baby
Seven-year-old Tim has a pretty good life. Pretty good, that is, until his parents come home with a baby. And not just any baby. This baby wears a suit, carries a briefcase, has an oddly adult and masculine voice, and is dead-set on stopping the evil plans of Puppy Co.'s CEO.
The latest from Dreamworks Animation, The Boss Baby draws from Alec Baldwin's comedic strength in an effort to continue the comical sense that made Kung-Fu Panda great. According to early reviews, they're only partially successful. The film is occasionally funny, but is tonally split between its efforts to compete with Pixar's heartstring-tugging and the comical sense that is all Dreamworks' own. As a family feature it's probably safe enough, save for a few forays into toilet humor, but don't expect it to be one of the few classics that the studio has churned out in times past.
Ghost in the Shell
Based on the 1995 anime film, Ghost in the Shell is the story of a cyborg police operative named Major, and her discovery of the dystopian future in which she is working. In many ways, the plot uses science fiction tropes to create a sort of reverse Robocop, where instead of a cyborg losing his humanity, she is a cyborg finding it. In that way, it dialogues with interesting ideas, at least on a thematic level.
The original film, however, had some pretty strong content concerns. It was rated R, largely for explicit female nudity, which was on the screen quite often. For that reason, I was concerned that this version, in live action and starring Scarlett Johansson, would follow the same line. Thankfully, that does not appear to be the case. The rating has been scaled back to PG-13, meaning that the content will at least be more mild. There may still be some concerns (there's a hint at a same-sex moment in the trailer), so I would recommend screening it for teens. But at the very least, I'm hopeful that this will be a thought-provoking science fiction film, coming at an appropriate time in the era of exploding technology.
The Zookeeper's Wife
Based on the non-fiction book of the Sam name, The Zookeeper's Wife is the true story of Antonina Żabińska, and her husband Jan, who, after having their zoo in Warsaw shut down by the Nazi occupation, used it to shelter Jews. And not just a few, but 300 Jews. With a story like that, the script almost writes itself.
There's so much going for this. Jessica Chastain has plenty enough acting chops to carry the film, not to mention Daniel Bruhl in a supporting role. The creative team is not high-profile (most noteworthy is director Niko Caro, who also helmed McFarland USA in 2015), but the talent involved gives me high hopes for the story.
Recommendation: The Zookeeper's Wife. Between the talent, the life-valuing story, and the general timelessness of the World War II era, it's hard to pass this one up.

The main problem with fashion trends like loud coloured prints is that it tends to be something you wear for a short amount of time and then it really doesn't fit in with the next passing trend, this also means that you may end up splashing the cash and not really get your moneys worth of wear from your fashion purchases! Well I have a small solution which will help you stay on trend but with out having to spend the money!
Use your nails as fashion accessories, you are more than likely going to already have nail varnishes and I have the designs so problem solved!
This Tie Dye design is the perfect way to add colour and be completely on trend
I have used three colours to create my look, Catch me in your net, Fiercely Fiona & Shorts story all from OPI. I also used Nail Eny as my base coat and Start-To-Finish as my Top coat.
To get this look simply apply your chosen colours in lines and whilst they are still wet use a nail art tool or coctail stick and drag the colours through each line which creates the tie dye look!
With this design is you can use what ever varnishes you want to go with an outfit or just pick out your favourite colours. Another thing you could do is paint a thin layer of colour as a base, this will show through ever so slightly if any gaps appear where you have dragged the colours through.
If you want to see exactly how I did this design please take a look at my tutorial!
I hope you like this design and if you do recreate it I would love to see so send me some pics on facebook or twitter!
Stay Gorgeous

Route 3 will be reduced to a single lane during daytime hours between Lancaster and Middlesex counties on Saturday, April 1, and Monday, April 3– Saturday, April 8
FREDERICKSBURG – Motorists can anticipate brief delays on Route 3 at the Robert O. Norris Bridge over the Rappahannock River on Saturday, April 1, and throughout next week.
Work continues on a $12.8 million painting project of the bridge's three center spans. The project contractor is installing the platform system required to paint the bridge, as well as temporary traffic signal equipment.
Route 3 will be reduced to one lane on Norris Bridge from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow, and daily from Monday, April 3 through Saturday, April 8.
Motorists can expect delays of 10-15 minutes each day around 7 a.m. as workers set up the work zone and temporary traffic control equipment. Once this equipment is in place, motorists can anticipate delays of approximately 5 minutes for the remainder of the day through 5 p.m.
Norris Bridge Painting Project
Cleaning and painting the bridge's center spans will protect its structural steel elements and prevent deterioration and corrosion.
This project will complete a full painting of the Norris Bridge spans. Additional spans were cleaned and painted between 2009-2012.
When painting work begins in spring 2017, two temporary traffic signals will be activated on the bridge at the center spans. The signals will control one-way alternating traffic at the bridge's center spans 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, until the project is completed in 2018.
Next week, the contractor will begin to install the temporary traffic signal equipment, but an activation date for the signals has not yet been set.
Additional information on the painting project is available online at the project page on www.VirginiaDOT.org.
Real-time information on the bridge work zone and lane closures will be available on 511Virginia.
Download the free mobile 511 app for Apple and Android devices to stay connected, or visit www.511Virginia.org. Motorists also can reach 511Virginia by calling 511 from any phone in Virginia.
VDOT's 14-county Fredericksburg District includes the counties of Caroline, King George, Spotsylvania and Stafford in the Fredericksburg area; Northumberland, Richmond, Lancaster and Westmoreland counties in the Northern Neck; Essex, Gloucester, King & Queen, King William, Mathews and Middlesex counties in the Middle Peninsula.

Following a treasure map to old Elven Ruins, the group arrived at the last human fortress at the edge of the wildlands. The group was composed of:
Draenik, a tough dwarven veteran of battles and knocks in the head. Hjarblgoo, a simple halfling thief more than able in finding trouble. Tannen, a human cleric of the Caregiver, as likely to seek a game of chance than preach his faith. Kelstin, a mysterious elven scout with a talent in the arcane. Elowyn, a wild elven maid on the search for magical power.
Hunting briefly for information on the ruins they discovered there were many ruins about, and they would have to seek out an expert on history to learn more, and also a warning that Goblin bandits were becoming more frequent in the area, to the point that there was a bounty. With little money to their names, the group decided there was no reason to waste time in town and set off into the wilderness to follow the map to the ruins, which they estimated to be about 4 hours away on foot.
Between the dwarf's flatulence and arguments on how to read the map (only one character can read, and elven only) the group was surprised when a group of 6 goblins burst through the cover of the woods to rush the party. The Thief recovered quickly and spent time fishing out his sling. The Cleric also recovered quickly and move to meet the beasts with morning star and shield in hand. The Cleric quickly found himself penned in by 4 goblins while the remaining two broke past to the rest of the group. The thief burned luck to avoid a particularly painful looking blow, and the dwarf was brought quickly to his senses as the last goblin's blade found flesh.
The goblins exchanged blows with the Cleric, none inflicting telling damage. An arrow from one of the elves whistled past the Cleric's ear, slamming into the goblin on his flank, sending it flying back several feet and tumbling to the ground in pain. The halfling thief managed to maneuver next to the dwarf and then break out of the melee safely, using his sling once out of reach. The sling stone however buried itself painfully in the dwarf's side rather than it's intended target. Muttering a dwarven curse, the dwarf's battle axe smashed through the shield of a goblin who overextended on an attack, sending the goblin to the ground, its shield smashed to pieces.
Another arrow from one of the mages flew with unerring accuracy, felling a second goblin engaged with the Cleric. Chips of wood flew from the goblin's shields as they continued their stalemate against the cleric. The Dwarf's axe found its mark, sending another goblin collapsing to the ground. One of the goblins staggered to its feet again, only to be met with an elven arrow in his throat to send him right back down. The Thief performed the grisly work to ensure others would not be standing again.
The Cleric's morning star battered a goblin back and the last broke battle, only to be brought down by the dwarf and cleric in unison. The fight was over in just under 50 seconds. After pulling the Dwarf away from cursing at the Halfling Thief for friendly fire, the Cleric tended to both the Dwarf's wounds and his own with First Aid. The Cleric had a few minor wounds and the hardy dwarf had some more serious wounds, but still more HP than the rest of the party.
The party collected Goblin ears and found some copper and silver coins on the bodies, and prepared to move on. Though they are approaching their destination, stomachs are starting to growl.

|Tracking Long-term Songbird Trends at Mammoth Cave National Park (June 2018)
IBP is grateful to its many MAPS and MoSI station collaborators. Recently, the station at Mammoth Cave National Park, which has been operating since 2004, was highlighted by the Glasgow (Kentucky) Times. In addition to their work conducting regular mist netting, the workers at the Mammoth Cave site are taking blood samples from Kentucky Warbler to assist with migratory connectivity work as part of the Bird Genoscape Project, the collaboration between The UCLA Center for Tropical Research, IBP, and many others.

|Discovering New Areas Where Birds Molt (May 2018)
Molt is an energetically-taxing phase of life for birds. Months of wear cause their feathers to deteriorate, so most birds refresh their plumage at least once a year, often between breeding and fall migration. For a long time, it was assumed that most North American landbirds molt close to where they nest, but as shown in a new paper by IBP, which was featured in Audubon Magazine online, more birds rely on special molting locations than was previously realized. The study used 17 years of records from IBP's MAPS Program, including data from more than 760,000 capture records of 140 species of landbirds collected at 936 MAPS stations.
|IBP and UCLA Team Up to Map Migration (June 2017)
For several years, IBP and UCLA have been collaborating on an innovative project to map the migratory pathways of many of North America's landbirds, and to map the migration routes between breeding and wintering sites. The initiative, called The Bird Genoscape Project, is led by UCLA scientists Drs. Tom Smith and Kristen Ruegg. IBP assists the effort by using our MAPS and MoSI networks to collect feathers for genetic analyis. Several news outlets have recently had stories about this project.

|Pyrodiversity Promotes Biodiversity (October 2016)
How does biodiversity respond to forest fire? The Los Angeles Times and several other news outlets ran stories on a recent paper by IBP Research Associate Morgan Tingley and several IBP scientists and colleagues on this topic. Theory predicts that the high diversity of habitats and successional states created by some fires – termed pyrodiversity – should increase the number of species living in an area. In a new paper published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, the scientists describe how, by visiting nearly 100 fire sites in California's mountains over the 10 years after they burned, they found that pyrodiversity does increase bird diversity, but only gradually over time. A synopsis of this and other fire-diversity related research was also recently published in Science Magazine.

|Understanding the Mysterious Great Gray Owl (September 2016)
For its cover story, Audubon Magazine featured recent research on the relatively unknown Great Gray Owl, including work conducted by IBP and colleagues in the Sierra Nevada that catalogued the known nesting records in California since 1973. The study found a surprising 21 percent of the nests in hotter, lower habitats than previously documented - land that is being rapidly developed in the state.
|Delays in Species Listing Could Harm Biodiversity (August 2016)
The Huffington Post and several other sources recently profiled a study by authors including IBP Research Associate Dylan Kesler which documented very long waits for some species before receiving Endangered Species Act determinations. The study also noted that vertebrates like mammals and birds are processed about twice as fast as invertebrates and plants. (IBP was not directly involved in this work).

|Memories of the Farallons (August 2016)
The National Public Radio Program The Kitchen Sisters aired a story which featured IBP Biologist Peter Pyle about the Gold Rush era "egg wars" on the Farallon Islands, a group of rocky outcrops 30 miles west of San Francisco that, in the 19th century, harbored the largest seabird rookery in the contiguous U.S. To feed protein-hungry miners during the Gold Rush, collectors would gather the eggs of Common Murres and other species, nearly extirpating the birds from the islands. Peter, who worked on the Farallons for 20 years, also shared some of his memories with the news website Pacific Standard.

|Micronesian Kingfisher Restoration (May 2016)
IBP Research Associate Dylan Kesler's work helping restore the Micronesian Kingfisher to the wild was showcased by the website ScienceLine. The last wild Guam Micronesian Kingfishers were removed from their remote Pacific island home more than 30 years ago, when they were airlifted to American zoos after invasive brown tree snakes drove them to the brink of extinction. But there are now plans to release this colorful bird onto islands without snakes. (IBP was not directly involved in this work).
|Bryan's Shearwater, the First New U.S. Bird Species in Decades (April 2016)
The science website Seeker recently profiled IBP Scientist Peter Pyle's work in determining that Bryan's shearwater, a Hawaiian Islands and Pacific Ocean seabird and the smallest shearwater in the world, is indeed a distinct species.

Yet there is an independence that we as Christ followers were never intended to have, an independence from God and from one another. Jesus when he was asked by one of the experts in the law "what is the greatest commandment?" said it was to love the Lord your God and to love one another as ourselves, Matthew 22:35,36.
How do we love God with all of our heart and love one another as ourselves? That's the question we asked this past Sunday at journey. We concluded that we love God by following the admonition of Proverbs 3:5,6.
5Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. [a]
Then we live in interdependence with one another by recognizing that we are not complete in and of ourselves but merely one part of "the body" in which no part is more important than the other and everyone sorrows with those who sorrow and rejoices with those who rejoice, 1 Corinthians 12:12,
12The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body.
While I am grateful for the independence and freedoms I enjoy as an American I am even more grateful for the privilege of being part of a people who are seeking to live in dependence of God and interdependence of one another.

After a little tossing and turning (or more accurately, gently repositioning my sore body) last night, I came up with an analogy which helps with that psychological game from last night:
If you are told that you are considered "overweight" from 160-200lbs and "obese" above 200lbs, does someone who is 199 really have a significantly better prognosis than someone at 201?
Yesterday afternoon, I went from thinking the scale was reading 199 to finding out that it really read 201. Totally doesn't change my prognosis or treatment, just has a new name. Unfortunately, I can't skip a couple meals to change the results, but Dr. Kirshner will tell me in a few short hours what we CAN do about it. Tick tock, tick tock.

List of Buddy Ebsen movies
Buddy Ebsen began his career as a dancer in the late 1920s in a Broadway chorus. He later formed a vaudeville act with his sister Vilma Ebsen, which also appeared on Broadway. In 1935 he and his sister went to Hollywood, where they were signed for the first of MGM's Eleanor Powell movies, Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935). While Vilma retired from stage and screen shortly after this, Buddy starred in two further MGM movies with Powell. Two of his dancing partners were Frances Langford in Born to Dance (1936) and Judy Garland in Broadway Melody of 1938 (1937). They were a little bit taller than Shirley Temple, with whom he danced in Captain January (1936). MGM studio chief Louis B. Mayer offered him an exclusive contract in 1938, but Ebsen turned it down. In spite of Mayer's warning ...By Anirban» read full biography

The dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies pens an insider account of the Obama administration's diplomatic fecklessness in the greater Middle East.
Drawing from his decades of scholarship and specifically from his two-year tenure as senior adviser to Richard Holbrooke, the president's special adviser to Afghanistan and Pakistan, Nasr (Forces of Fortune: The Rise of the New Muslim Middle Class and What it Will Mean for Our World, 2009, etc.) accuses the Obama White House of lacking any strategic vision for the Middle East and abandoning diplomacy and economic engagement in favor of shortsighted, tactical maneuvers driven by domestic politics and opinion polls. He charges the administration with preferring the advice of the military and intelligence agencies over its own foreign policy experts, a misguided approach that has bewildered our friends in the region and needlessly antagonized our enemies. He fleshes out his indictment with chapters devoted to Afghanistan, where talks with the Taliban were never seriously considered; Pakistan, where we failed to develop any strategy to end that country's double-dealing; Iran, where sanctions and blustering war talk bid fair to turn that nation into a version of North Korea; and Iraq, where our withdrawal has done little to lessen sectarian animosities that threaten to reignite. Nasr blasts the administration's failure to capitalize on the genuine opportunity offered by the Arab Spring, where we've cheered from the sidelines the fall of dictators with no real plan to help assure that what follows will be an improvement. The author insists he's writing more in sorrow than in anger, fearful that this broadside will be employed as a "political bludgeon," but it's likely that critics—and, perhaps, especially supporters who expected the wielding of "smart power" under Obama—will happily seize on this picture of a foreign policy in disarray.
An informed, smoothly argued brief that will surely rattle windows at the White House.

EXPLORING TORT LAW, Stuart Madden, ed., Cambridge University Press, 2005
In order to regulate risk taking efficiently, tort liability rules governing organizations' liability for torts by their agents should ensure that organizations both want their agents to take optimal precautions and benefit from using cost-effective mechanisms to regulate agents. This chapter shows that vicarious liability, the current rule governing organizations' liability for their agents' torts, does not satisfy these objectives. By holding organizations liable for torts committed by employees, but not by independent contractors, vicarious liability discourages organizations from asserting direct control over agents, even when control is an efficient way to regulate care. Organizations governed by vicarious liability also may not attempt to induce efficient care-taking by independent contractors because organizations often do not maximize profits by inducing efficient care. Indeed, vicarious liability encourages organizations to undermine the effect of individual tort liability by hiring judgment-proof independent contractors.

A Fresh Look at Functional Connectivity Analysis
Saba, Elliot
MetadataShow full item record
Functional connectivity analysis attempts to detect methods of communication between groups of neurons in the brain that may or may not be directly physically connected. We briefly review current neuroscience methods for functional connectivity analysis, noting the similarities between the current state of the art as described in Miller et. al [4] and the recent work in the field of complex-valued statistics pioneered by Scharf et. al [7] and Picinbono et. al [5]. We apply the techniques of these complex-valued statistics to simulated and natural data, showing that these techniques are able to correctly and accurately detect a common mode of communication known as amplitude/phase coupling in the neuroscience community. This analysis is shown to reinforce the results of the study of in [4], with the added and substantial benefit of being completely automatic and not requiring human intervention to produce results.

Love, love, love!! They are so relaxing...ours has been lying in our garage since we moved and now I'm itching to put it back up!ReplyDelete
I have such fun memories of a hammock too! We used to try to flip each other over!ReplyDelete
$100 does not seem like very much for such a useful and gorgeous piece! If I had a porch of my own, I'd grab one right away!ReplyDelete

Ahhhh nothing like a hammock!!! The best way to relax! You seriously need to get one, it would look amazing in your porch!ReplyDelete

That hammock is absolutely perfect. There's something so nice and relaxing about them, we used to have one at my old house and I couldn't get enough of it during the summer months. Esp late night under the stars!ReplyDelete
This black & white hammock is so beautiful!!! I had a hammock in one of my former flat as I had a large terrace and I used to sleep in it and sunbathe ... Great moments! But mine wasn't so beautiful. Summer is definitely my favourite season!!!ReplyDelete
I love hammocks. Not sure my husband will approve such a girly, pretty hammock, but we'll see...ReplyDelete

Love the look of this hammock. So pretty and unique! I would love to spend a day reading and relaxing in a pretty hammock!!!ReplyDelete
This looks heavenly. And so chic in black and white :)ReplyDelete
So I bought a handmade nicaraguan hammock over a year ago for my last house. I was so excited to have it, but we ended up selling our house literally a week after it arrived. It has sat in a box for about a year. We are in the middle of doing our landscaping and TODAY the landscaper installed the wooden posts just for my pretty hammock! Sooooo excited to finally use it.ReplyDelete
I have been looking into getting one, plus I absolutely vote for the black and white stripes!ReplyDelete
That hammock needs to be mine... It is FABULOUS!!!ReplyDelete

Two Days of Klondike Solitaire, Two Shots at 200 Swag Bucks
Happy Weekend, Swag Nation!
Sometimes, life seems challenging. Sometimes, life just feels like you're trying balance a tennis racket on the tip of your finger while balls fall all around you and for some reason, you just wanna collect a few, but it's hard… Too hard… That's when you've got to just take a weekend to myself and relax with a little Klondike Solitaire and maybe a couple of chances to win 200 Swag Bucks or more.
If you've never played Solitaire before or are unfamiliar with the scoring, the goal is to get all of the cards up to the top row, starting with the aces. For each card you get to the top row, also known as the foundation, you are given 5 points. Once you are able to add an ace to the foundation, you can a 2 of the same suit, and then a 3 of the same suit and so on. Add cards to the foundation by double clicking on them. In order to reveal more cards and access them to add them to the foundation, draw cards and if they are not able to be added to the foundation immediately, look for opportunities to add them to the displayed piles (tableau). You may add a card to a pile when the card beneath it is one value above and of a different color suit. You can also move piles in this same way. For more on how to play Solitaire, run a Swag Search!
So what's this Weekend's Game Challenge? Get a score of 40 or more in Klondike Solitaire and post a link to a screenshot that shows your accomplishment in the comments. For each of these correctly filled out posts, you will have one entry in a raffle to win 200 Swag Bucks. You may enter as many times as you like with new screenshots of different scores. One winner will be selected at random from each day of entries and announced in this blog post and on Twitter on Monday. That means, if you enter on Saturday, you can come back Sunday to enter again and be part of a new raffle. If you need an image hosting service, I recommend tinypic.com. The link you want is the URL.
You can also participate via Twitter by tweeting your screenshot @Swagbucks, along with your Swag Name and the hashtag #sbgames. You may place each entry both on Twitter and in the comments, but if you win from an entry placed on Twitter, you will win an additional 100 Swag Bucks.
To make things a bit more interesting, if you are one of the lucky winners and your entry shows a score above 90 points or your entry is in reply to someone else's and beating their score, you will win an additional 50 Swag Bucks.
As always, I'm still gathering your suggestions for upcoming game challenges. A lot of you have requested the same game so definitely be on the lookout for it to be in an upcoming game challenge soon. If you have a suggestion for an upcoming game challenge please leave it in the comments. It just might be an upcoming challenge.
Good luck. Have fun. Have a great weekend!
Update: This weekend's winners were sambucka and barbarawr – Congratulations!

Mexico is the hotspot for world-class culture, seamlessly bridging together both the past and the future.
Mexico has become the epicenter of state-of-the-art manufacturing, from automobile parts to airplanes. Learn more about Mexico's exports and growing economy.
"Kidzania is a Mexican idea. It was a more successful project than we expected, and that put us on the world map. ProMéxico has introduced us to local embassies; we meet the ambassador and people from ProMéxico and from the embassy are always there to help us. In the six or seven years we have been working, it has been a pleasure to work with ProMéxico."
Xavier López Ancona
"We needed to find new ways to sell our production; it was no longer enough to sell it on the domestic market. We found a ProMéxico official and talked to him about our project. They helped us get organized, they trained us; we began to do research projects and market strategies, because we didn't know how before. Now we have a brand."
Manuel Cázares Castro
"We needed a place where we could offer high quality, punctuality and at an acceptable cost: Mexico meets those three criteria. [?] We saw that, qualitatively, through three presidential administrations with two different political parties, there was a long-term commitment to the aerospace industry at state and federal levels."
Michael MacAdoo
"As I understand ProMéxico, although it is a government entity, it works as a consultant to the benefit of Mexico but also to the benefit of the investor. If we, as a foreign company, promote Mexico, that is simply an opinion. But when it is a government body, that gives the investor more confidence, because automatically you see the ties and the support that the Mexican government is going to give this investment. And the most important thing for an investment is confidence in the future."
René Schlegel
"Mexico has a strong domestic market, but what we like best is the consistency of government commitment to make it an ideal place for business and for locating our manufacturing contracts and research and development resources. In conclusion, we trust the government leadership. We are not only going to remain committed to the investment but to expanding it."
John Chambers
"Mexico is the fifth most important country for Grupo Danone. Danone de México wants to develop in Central America, from the production we have in Mexico. To export - towards Guatemala, for example - we have had to go through many processes. ProMéxico helped us understand and expedite everything we had to do."
Marina Menu
"I appreciate the support of ProMéxico, which has played an important role in the promotion of foreign investment. We have had their support in the past and are confident that the collaboration will continue as our expansion plans materialize. Undoubtedly, Nestlé will be present in the future of Mexico."
Chris Johnson
"The support provided by ProMéxico has been fundamental for our achievements. Our idea was only to produce high performance premium tires and bring our research and development skills to the country. When we explained this to ProMéxico, they opened doors. We have had the support of federal and state governments."
Marco Tronchetti Provera
"We decided to invest in Mexico, because Mexico is a very friendly environment for doing business. It´s a competitive place. We have skilled engineers, a good environment supported by the states and therefore it makes sense to invest on the long term."
Guillaume Faury
Airbus Helicopters
"The reason we are able to attract that kind of talent is because the Mexican government has created programs and they´ve also created educational facilities that allow us to have talented young engineers who really make a difference in our ability to contribute to GE aviation both throughout the world and especially in Latin America."
Peter Prowitt
GE Aviation
"The government of Mexico has been very helpful; in fact, from the very beginning, we´ve had very good relationships. They helped us find the locations, they helped us with incentives, they helped us solve the problems, and we had at the end the greatest honour, we had the president Mr. Peña Nieto come in for the opening."
Jean-Paul Agon

My dear colleague Steve McGill pointed something out to me I never noticed before. However after noticing it I could not help but be extremely bothered about it.
A true case of:
(I might or might not be exaggerating just a tad here)
In any case, I'm talking about the search facets when searching for bucketable content in the Sitecore Content Editor:
So far so good. Lets select a couple of facets.
It's still not too bad – but now imagine if we've have multiple custom facets selected – especially booleans. The facet, when selected, would just say '0' or '1' – but we don't know which facet this would be.
This is definitely less useful… So how can we make this more useful? The file that we'd be interested in changing here is webroot/sitecore/shell/Applications/Buckets/Scripts/ItemBucket.js.
A quick fix might be to change one line of code in that JavaScript. In line 263 (on Sitecore 8.1 update 2 at least) the line is:
facetList += '
' + innerText + "
";
Which we can change to (I've added the bold for emphasis):
facetList += '
' + this.value.split('|')[0] + ':' + innerText + "
";
'this.value' is simply the field name Sitecore facets on. I added '.split' as well because it passes the value in there as well (so for English language facet it would pass 'culture|en').
This isn't flawless either, since the 'Author' facet is using the 'parsedcreatedby' field in the index. If we wanted to change anything there we'd have to change the AppendFacet method in the same file to take in the display name of the facet as well (rather than the field).
One big consideration to keep in mind here is that we're overriding a Sitecore file, which of course might change with future updates in Sitecore, so use with caution.
