The Vegetarian Option: Mediterranean Pizzas at Nice Pizza
Dining out meat-free.
In this great city of ours, it's never too tough to satisfy a pizza craving, and, in my humble opinion, even the nondescript slice shops here often put out a product that's often decent if not transcendent. Sometimes, though, you want a little more out of dinner than what these corner stores offer; you want a well-made pie with some thoughtful toppings, served in an atmosphere that offers a little more than just the requisite red pepper, garlic powder and oregano shakers.
Nice Pizza in Bed-Stuy offers that atmosphere: bright, red-checked tablecloths quickly fill with glasses of wine and bottles of house-infused olive oil, and soft yellow lighting and a cream-colored tin ceiling lend a relaxed air to the place (the "Nice" in the name refers to the city in southern France). We first checked out the place a couple years ago; here's our update on the food: it won't change your life, but you could certainly do worse than ordering a few vegetarian-friendly appetizers, salads and pizzas to share with friends on a low-key weeknight.
My group and I started with the tomates Provencales ($6), a favorite meat-free dish of mine that typically celebrates the bright intensity of summer tomatoes by stuffing them with aromatic breadcrumbs and baking them in the oven until tender. The menu promised those breadcrumbs, but they were nowhere to be found; rather, these were plum tomatoes, split down the middle, topped with pesto and baked. They were fine, but lacked the textural contrast that the garlicky breadcrumbs usually bring to the party. A well-dressed, Caesar-coated salad served underneath was tasty.
Of Nice Pizza's several vegetarian pizza offerings, the Chevre ($13 for a small) jumps out on the menu, and overall, it was a tasty pie, with mozzarella, goat cheese, sweet caramelized onions, sliced mushrooms, and fresh tomato rounds topping a thin layer of tomato sauce. The main issue at Nice is the pizza crust itself: almost wafer-thin and crackly, which I appreciate, but it lacks the balance of chew that's present in a great crust, and it also cries out for seasoning. I still enjoyed the pies, but suspect that a true pizza aficionado would be disappointed by them.
Still, my group and I were content to order another pie, the Quatre Fromages ($14 for a small), which was covered in a rich and satisfying melty amalgam of Cantal, mozzarella, goat and blue cheeses, with a drizzle of herbal basil pesto.
Nice Pizza is a true neighborhood spot, offering a decent meal in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere. Don't come here looking for a Michelin-rated meal, but certainly stop in for a bite if you find yourself in Bed-Stuy come evening.

Britain announced Thursday it had revoked a royal wedding invitation to the Syrian ambassador because of violent attacks on protesters by the regime there.
Human rights groups had criticized the decision to invite Ambassador Sami Khiyami to Prince William and Kate Middleton's nuptials at Westminster Abbey.
More than 450 people have been killed since last month in the uprising against President Bashar Assad's authoritarian regime, with 120 dead over the weekend, according to the U.N.
The government said ambassadors from all countries with which Britain has "normal diplomatic relations" had been invited to the wedding — some 185 in all.
But the Foreign Office said Thursday that "in the light of this week's attacks against civilians by the Syrian security forces, which we have condemned, the Foreign Secretary has decided that the presence of the Syrian ambassador at the royal wedding would be unacceptable and that he should not attend."
"Buckingham Palace shares the view of the Foreign Office that it is not considered appropriate for the Syrian Ambassador to attend the wedding," the spokesman added.
Violent crackdown on Syrian protests continuesApril 28, 201102:18
Prime Minister David Cameron's office said he also endorsed the decision.
The Syrian Embassy in London said it was not immediately able to comment.

Glyn Philpot: Artist at the Crossroads
Part 4: Torn between two worlds
Final study for a Virgin and Child with saints
Glyn Warren Philpot (1884-1937)
These works hang awkwardly beside studies such as Virgin and Child with Saints, whose stylised gravity conveys Philpot's devout Catholicism. The contrast suggests an artist torn between two worlds. However, it is worth looking as well at his sketch of Angels Jumping for Joy (shown on the next page of this story), where the spontaneous exuberance of the celestial dance seems to bless the joy of physical movement, and contact between men.

Environmental product declarations
Our environmental product declarations or EPDs offer life-cycle inventory data of our main products, making it possible for our customers to calculate sustainability performance over their product's life cycle. EPDs are standardized and verified externally.
These are public documents that describe the main environmental effects and energy needs of the Group's stainless steel grades throughout their supply chain.
We have issued four EPDs for stainless steel in construction. The data is based on a representative mix of the production. The EPDs were issued by IBU, Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V., and they are valid for a period of five years.
Use our stainless steel for LEED points
Outokumpu is a pioneer in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), a sustainability-oriented building certification scheme developed by the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) that recognizes best-in-class building strategies and practices. LEED certification standards apply to buildings that achieve high energy efficiency and use sustainable materials. The sustainable characteristics of Outokumpu stainless steel, such as high recycled content and long service life, are rewarded in this scheme.
We offer LEED documentation for our products, which means that designers who select Outokumpu stainless steel can gain LEED points for their building. As a complement to the LEED fact sheet we have created a credit point summary based on our own estimates of where our stainless steel has the potential to help in achieving LEED points. Outokumpu is also a USGBC member since 2015.

The Maine Emergency Management Agency says it wants to hear from people who've suffered ice storm damage. Maine is collecting information about the damage from the Christmas week storm that knocked out power to more than 160,000 homes and businesses and left many in the dark for a week. MEMA says more information is needed to determine if the state might be eligible for assistance. Spokeswoman Lynette Miller says it's especially important to report major damage like burst pipes, heating and electrical problems and roof and structure damage from falling limbs and ice. Mainers can report their damage by dialing 211.

Aumont back with Phils, in better frame of mind
SAN DIEGO -- Phillippe Aumont said he is in a better frame of mind, which the Phillies hope leads to the reliever's success on the mound.
They need it.
The Phillies demoted Aumont to Triple-A Lehigh Valley in May because they wanted him to pitch more and solve some mechanical issues in his delivery that left him prone to walking too many batters. But Aumont, who rejoined the team on Monday after the Phillies placed Mike Stutes on the disabled list, had an 11.57 ERA and 12 walks in only 4 2/3 innings in his first six appearances with the IronPigs. He told a reporter there he was getting mixed messages from the Triple-A and big league coaching staffs.
"The mixed messages were never an issue," Aumont stressed to reporters on Monday. "It was put out as an issue, but it wasn't. It was unfortunate it was sort of translated that way. I certainly felt bad. Especially for the people who were trying to help me. I didn't like that. But it was mistranslated, in their words, because I just remember they were asking me how was it to go from here to there, and I just said I have to find a medium where I have to please everybody. … I felt bad. For a few days I felt [bad]. This is not where I want to be. I'm the last guy who wants to go out there and point fingers. Not at all. But I made some phone calls and stuff and apologized. Stuff happens."
After his early struggles in Triple-A, Aumont posted a 3.00 ERA in his final six appearances with the IronPigs, walking three in six innings.
"I think I was making progress," he said. "I was certainly at the bottom of the cup when I got down there, but I guess it was just an experience of how to deal with stuff and what to do. Everything is good now. I feel comfortable. It's a little boost of joy coming back here. Now I have to get it back to where it was.
"Obviously I was frustrated I got sent down, everybody is, but I went down there and said, 'OK I'm going to have a positive attitude.' I know they want me to throw more innings, to get out there every day, every other day. I said I'm going to go get it done. It was like I never pitched before. I didn't know. I basically panicked. This is not who I am, this is now what I worked for. I don't know who I am right now. Somewhere in the back of my mind I wasn't over it. I got back on my mental issues program, and got it back to positive, seeing the bright side rather than living on the dark side."

I got most of it figured out. Im amazed that this is happening.
I came from a death family! I did not know. Now I know! Ive worked the recovery process around this disaster and Im coming through in flying colors... Now that I know what and who these people were, I can move on! leave them and their stupid dumb ass small town behind... And the best friends and stuff that I thought I had; what a horrible sick demonic joke this was. They were arrogant demonic people; nothing more. I hope I never see those people again or remember them ever again! How great this is for me to change things around. Trust God and move on. Its such a great thing. You have no regrets because of the truth, you start to see things clearly. What a horrible ride this has been. To see things the way they were, to have no other choice but to see the true path! To watch this horrible nightmare unfold; and you never knew. You never knew who you were living with or what they had done to you. You never knew the neighborhood you lived in always saw you of no account; you were a stranger and won't be missed by anyone. What a horrible nightmare A grave town.
All of this gives this feeling of freedom. I never knew what I was living with! my memories at the time were good. They were shadowed by an unforeseen world I was not aware of. Now I am aware of it! I was around cobra snakes that bite and kill and implant venom that turns one into a zombie.
I still have much work to do! I am healing up and my symptoms are down!
Im not letting anyone into my Christmas this year. Im staying at home alone. The idea is not who I spend it with; its who Im not spending it with; thats whats counts.
It will be my independent Christmas. Its not perfect. Next time I will take the phone of the hook, and keep it off till after Christmas.
Im still anxious. I assume I will get over it. and Ive been watching Youtube documentaries for fun; I haven't done this in a long time; it is nice.

Venezuela plans a 'guerrilla army' against US invasion
Venezuela is training a "guerrilla army" aiming to be a million strong by 2013 to fight off a possible US invasion, an opposition lawmaker said Sunday.
"Plan Sucre" — apparently crafted with input from close ally and fellow US foe Cuba — covers the legal, logistical and other angles necessary to "transform a professional army into a guerrilla army," Representative Maria Corina Machado told El Universal newspaper.
The former presidential candidate said she had obtained a copy of the plan, printed by an institution affiliated with the national army.
"The strategic objective is to build a new Bolivarian military doctrine" that would prepare Venezuela to be successful in a prolonged popular war against "the empire," or the United States, Machado said, citing the document.
"This is clearly a proposal with Cuban inspiration and advice."
She said the military plan also provides for strengthening the guerrilla force at the expense of the regular army.
The plan calls for "strengthening the territorial militias, in order to ensure the necessary strength for the overall defense of the nation, targeting recruitment levels of one million by 2013 and two million by 2019," Machado said, citing the document.
Venezuela's militia corps, described by firebrand leftist President Hugo Chavez as "an army of the public," was created in 2005 to protect the country against possible "imperialist" aggression. They are considered a part of the military but report directly to the president.
Chavez, 58, is a vocal critic of Washington. The United States and Venezuela have had troubled relations for years, and have not had ambassadors in each other's country since 2010.
The Venezuelan president, who took power in 1999, is seeking re-election in October after declaring himself free of the cancer he has battled for a year.
He has often denounced "American imperialism" and accused the United States of seeking to destabilize his government.
Machado was one of several candidates aiming to challenge Chavez in the upcoming October vote, but she was defeated in February's primary by former Miranda state governor Henrique Capriles.
Most polls give Chavez leads of up to 35 percent to win the election.

Panola County
Panola County is in northeastern Texas, bordered on the east by Louisiana, on the south by Shelby County, on the west by Rusk County, and on the north by Harrison County. The center of the county lies at 32°10' north latitude and 94°20' west longitude. Carthage, the county seat, is twenty-six miles south of Marshall, sixty-five miles southeast of Tyler, and fifty miles north of Nacogdoches. The name Panola is derived from ponolo, the Cherokee word for "cotton." Located in the East Texas Timberlands region, Panola County covers 842 square miles of gentle rolling plains and small hills drained by the Sabine River, which cuts across the county diagonally from northwest to southeast. Trees in the county include short-leaf and loblolly pine, oak, maple, hickory, elm, and gum, as well as wild fruit trees such as the plum or sloe and flowering trees such as dogwood, redbud, magnolia, cedar, and holly. Scenic trails pass through 4,000 acres of timberland owned by the International Paper Company. The woodland, once densely populated with small game, now supports deer, squirrel, and quail hunting in season. New stocks of wild turkey have been placed in local forests, but they are still protected from hunters. Freshwater lakes include Hendrick's Lake, Hill's Lake, Clear Lake, and Fish Lake. Reservoirs built in recent years include Murvaul Lake, Martin Lake, and Toledo Bend. The soil is largely sandy loam with clay subsoil. Annual rainfall in Panola County averages 43.9 inches; temperatures range from an average low of 34° F in January to an average high of 94° in July. The growing season lasts 240 days. The county derives much of its income from the extraction of oil, gas, and coal; in 1990, 1,356,000 barrels of crude oil were produced in the county. Other industries include sawmills, poultry and egg processing, and the manufacture of plastic products.
When the European powers raced for claims in the New World early in the seventeenth century, Spain secured its claim to Texas from the Sabine River to the south and west. France also claimed the area, based on the explorations of René Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle. Spain established a line of protected missions across East Texas, two of them not far south of Panola County. The area was involved in a series of territorial disputes between the United States and Spain and Mexico. In 1806, after the United States bought Louisiana from France, a boundary dispute between the United States and Spain was temporarily resolved by the Neutral Ground agreement, but after the Mexican War of Independence, another treaty had to be negotiated between Mexico and the United States. Two confederations of Indians, the Caddos and the Hasinais, lived in the Panola County area, with the Sabine River marking the approximate dividing line between them. The two allied confederations were known as the Timber Tribes. They made permanent homes in farming villages, where they raised grain and vegetables and hunted for small game in the forests. Burial mounds left behind by these people were once visible in the county, but that evidence of aboriginal life in the area has disappeared. Early settlers entered the area by traveling on the Red River or along the trails known as the Old San Antonio Road and Trammel's Trace. Trammel's Trace had originated long before as an Indian trail and later became the route used by trader Nicholas Trammel; it eventually became the western boundary of Panola County. The earliest known white settlement in the area was established by Daniel Martin in 1833. The Martins came to Texas from Missouri intending to join the colony founded by Stephen F. Austin, but after traveling down Trammel's Trace, they camped on a hill near a creek, west of the site of present Beckville. Deciding to stop there, they built a small fort and set up a trading post; the creek became known as Martin's Creek. A second settlement was established near the site of present of Clayton by Rev. Isaac Reed and a large group of relatives. Reed led the settlers to the place and purchased land from Manuel Antonio Romero. Because Mexican colonization laws prohibited settlement within a strip of land twenty leagues wide along the United States boundary, it was 1835 before Anglo settlers in the area could secure land titles from Mexico. But after the Texas Revolution in 1836, the area experienced a great land rush. In 1837 the LaGrone Settlement was established east of the Sabine River near the Louisiana border. The LaGrones' wagon train had passed through the area in 1832, but due to Indian unrest the family had traveled further into Texas; after Texas won its independence, they returned to an appealing spot they had found previously. By 1840 at least forty-nine families were established in the area that became Panola County. The majority came from Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Alabama. Some brought slaves with them to Texas; by 1846, according to local tax records, there were 574 slaves in the area.
In 1840 the boundary between the Republic of Texas and the United States (the line that later became the county's eastern boundary) was settled. The Sabine River was established as the boundary south of the thirty-second parallel, but it was necessary to send a commission of representatives from both countries to survey the line north of the parallel. On April 23, 1841, the commission set a granite marker at the location of the thirty-second parallel, 100 feet off present State Highway 31. The western side of the shaft was inscribed with the letters "R. T." (for Republic of Texas); the eastern side was inscribed "U. S." and the southern side, "Merid, Boundary, Established A.D. 1840." The marker, the only one of its kind, still stands on the line between Panola County and DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. In the early 1840s a feud erupted between two factions who called themselves Regulators and Moderators. For almost four years skirmishes extended from Harrison County and the Caddo Lake area through Shelby and San Augustine counties and into Sabine County. The so-called Regulator-Moderator War grew out of the unsettled border conditions; the Neutral Ground furnished a secure residence for lawless men, and their activities caused the growth of vigilante groups. The warfare ended in 1844, when President Sam Houston ordered out the militia to stop it. On March 30, 1846, the Texas legislature established Panola County from parts of Shelby and Harrison counties. John Allison, the county's first chief justice, had been a slave owner and cotton planter in Panola County, Mississippi; he may have been the one who suggested the name Panola to Isaac Van Zandt, the author of the act that established the county. Because the legislature specified that the county seat was to be within five miles of the center of the county, it took two years for the county to choose a permanent seat of government. Only two real villages, Pulaski and Grand Bluff, existed in the area in 1846; both were ferry towns on the Sabine River. Both were also more than seven miles from the center of the county. Nevertheless, commissioners appointed to choose the two most desirable locations for the county seat selected Grand Bluff and Pulaski to compete for the county seat in a public vote. Two elections were held in the summer of 1846. County officials were elected on July 18, and a second election on August 23 chose Pulaski, by a small majority, as the county seat. The first court session met there on September 9. After dissatisfied citizens challenged the legality of the choice, Chief Justice Allison ruled that Pulaski would be the temporary county seat until appeals could be examined and an official legal decision made by the state legislature. Since neither village satisfied the legislature's requirements, the entire procedure had to be repeated. Pulaski and an uninhabited townsite later called Carthage near the center of the county were nominated for county seat. In an election held in August 1848 the voters of the county chose Carthage. New county officers were also elected, and Chief Justice Thomas G. Davenport met with his first court session at Carthage on September 12. At that time, Carthage was little more than a location in a virgin forest of short-leaf pine, oak, hickory, and dogwood. The site was a mile west of the center of the county in order to use high well-drained ground. Spearman Holland was credited with naming the town Carthage, after his former home in Carthage, Mississippi. Jonathan Anderson, who lived four or five miles southeast of the site, owned the land and offered to donate 100 acres for the town. In 1848, when the commissioners' court met for the first time in the new location, he deeded the 100 acres to Panola County. The legislative act authorizing the county specified that the county seat be laid out into convenient lots with space in the center to erect a courthouse. Lots were staked out and sold at public auction; the proceeds were to be used to construct public buildings. The county government was dependent upon the Panola County Commissioners' Court, which was responsible for overseeing road construction, for setting ferry fees, for law enforcement, and for other business concerning the general public.
By 1850 farms in the county encompassed more than 116,000 acres, 13,000 of which were classified as "improved." Almost 109,000 bushels of corn were produced that year, along with 887 bales of cotton and other crops such as sweet potatoes, peas, and orchard fruits. Livestock raising was an important part of the local economy; there were 885 sheep, 2,253 milk cows, and 4,000 other cattle at that time. According to the United States census 2,676 people were living in the county that year, including 2 free Blacks and 1,193 enslaved people. The county supported four public schools, where four teachers taught seventy-nine pupils. By 1860, on the eve of the Civil War, the economy had grown to include 585 farms encompassing 237,000 acres, of which 49,000 acres were improved. The census reported 6,392 Whites and 3,727 enslaved people that year. There were no free Blacks. According to the census there were 445 slaveholders in the county; 75 of these owned ten or more slaves, 25 owned twenty or more slaves, and only two owned fifty or more slaves. Most owned fewer than five. Almost 327,000 bushels of corn were grown in the county that year, and cotton production had expanded substantially to 8,272 bales. The county contributed at least one company of soldiers to the Confederate cause during the Civil War, and late in the conflict the area was invaded by Union troops, who took food and other supplies from Carthage. The number of slaves in the county increased to 3,110 by 1864, possibly due to southerners fleeing west with their slaves during the war. The county continued to grow slowly during the immediate postwar period. There were 911 farms and 10,119 people in the area in 1870 and 1,670 farms and 21,424 people by 1880. The economy continued to be based on cotton farming; in 1880, 28,500 acres were planted in cotton, and 10,344 bales were produced that year. Corn remained the county's other important crop; that year 27,000 acres were devoted to it. The area's 8,820 cattle and 1,140 sheep were also sources of income for local farmers; crops such as wheat, oats, and sorghum were also grown. Meanwhile the lumber industry, which had begun before the Civil War, became increasingly important; by the early 1880s millions of board feet of lumber were being taken from the county's pine forests. Logging intensified in the area after 1885, when a narrow-gauge log railroad out of Longview built into the county. In 1888 it was upgraded to standard gauge, and its tracks were extended into Carthage. The line eventually became part of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway. Tying the area to national markets, the railroad also encouraged the development of the area's mineral wealth. As early as 1889 a geological survey discovered rich deposits of lignite in the county, and before the turn of the century a limited mining operation began in the Martin Creek area. It was soon abandoned due to the plentiful supply of wood for fuel.
By 1900 Panola County had 3,413 farms, and the population had increased to 21,404. Cotton production had expanded to 57,000 acres. Along with logging, the crop remained at the center of the local economy until after World War II. In 1910, 58,000 acres were devoted to cotton, and in 1912 forty-six cotton gins were operating in various communities. Though cotton acreage declined to 53,000 acres in 1920, production reached its peak by 1929, when 98,000 acres were planted in the fiber. Generally reflecting this trend, the number of farms in the county increased from 3,398 in 1910 to 3,771 by 1920, to 3,798 by 1925, and to 4,656 by 1929. Meanwhile, after declining slightly between 1900 and 1910, the county's population rose steadily from 20,424 in 1910 to 21,755 by 1920 and to 24,063 by 1930. These trends were reversed during the Great Depression of the 1930s, as low prices, federal crop restrictions, and other problems caused almost one-third of the farmers in the county to leave their holdings; many of those who remained could not afford to fertilize their lands. Cropland harvested in the county dropped from 128,718 acres in 1929 to only 95,500 acres by 1940, and cotton production fell by 50 percent during the same period. By 1940 there were only 3,239 farms left in Panola County, and only 41,400 acres were planted in cotton. The population dropped to 22,519 by 1940. As cotton production continued to decline in the decades following World War II and as the mechanization of agriculture encouraged the departure of more farmers, the area's population fell to 19,250 by 1950, to 16,870 by 1960, and to 15,894 by 1970. Meanwhile, pastures were improved, and ranching increased. Poultry farming became profitable. After the 1960s pasture and farm improvements did much to rebuild soils depleted by years of intensive production.
The population decline would have been more dramatic except for the growing oil and gas industry in the area. Oil was first discovered in the county in 1917 and gas in 1936, but significant production of the area's energy resources began in 1944, when the Jordan well was drilled a mile west of Carthage. The well tapped into a huge underground reservoir that underlay almost half the county. Petroleum production in the county reached 322,000 barrels in 1948, 1,057,000 barrels in 1956, 1,467,000 barrels in 1960, and 3,816,000 barrels in 1963. Production declined in the mid-1960s and then began to rise again in the mid-1970s. About 781,000 barrels were produced in 1974, 1,217,000 barrels in 1978, and 1,625,000 barrels in 1982, and 1,856,000 barrels in 1990. In response to these developments the county's population began to grow once again, reaching 20,724 in 1980 and 22,035 in 1990. A county flag, adopted in 1976, shows six representative products of the county's growth: cotton for farming, trees for lumbering, an oil well for minerals, a chicken for poultry processing, a steer for cattle ranching, and a chunk of coal for strip mining. By the late 1980s Panola County Airport served privately owned and emergency planes. There were seventy churches in the county. Two weekly newspapers, the Panola Watchman and the Panola Post, were circulated across the county and beyond. Electronic media included KGAS radio and Carthage Cable Vision; Panola General Hospital and two nursing homes provided health care. Two libraries, the Service League Library and the M. P. Baker Library at Panola College, served county residents. By the 1990s the Santa Fe Railroad had dispensed with passenger train service to the area but, reorganized as the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad, the line continued to operate freight trains through the county into the twenty-first century.
In national politics the voters of Panola County delivered majorities to the Democratic candidates in almost every presidential election from 1848 through 1952. The only exception occurred in 1860, when the county supported John Bell, the candidate of the Constitutional Union Party. Beginning in 1956, when most of the people in the county voted for Dwight Eisenhower, the county went Republican in virtually every election through 1988. The only exception was the election of 1976, when a majority supported Democrat Jimmy Carter. In the 1992 election a plurality of voters supported Democrat Bill Clinton over Republican George H. W. Bush and the independent candidate, Ross Perot; Clinton also won a plurality in the county in 1996. In the 2000 and 2004 elections, however, the county gave solid majorities to Republican George W. Bush.
In 2014 the census counted 23,769 people living in Panola County. About 73.3 percent were Anglo, 16 percent were African American, and 8.8 percent were Hispanic. Almost 66 percent of residents age twenty-five or older had graduated from high school, and more than 13 percent had college degrees. In the early twenty-first century gas and oil-field operations, agribusinesses, timber, and food processing were central elements of the area's economy. Almost 1,953,000 barrels of oil and 244,308,296 cubic feet of gas-well gas were produced in the county in 2004; by the end of that year 92,220,935 barrels of oil had been taken from county lands since 1917. In 2002 the county had 948 farms and ranches covering 222,910 acres, 38 percent of which were devoted to crops, 31 percent to woodlands, and 28 percent to pasture. In that year local farmers and ranchers earned $46,221,000; livestock sales accounted for $44,830,000 of the total. Broilers, beef cattle, and hay were the chief agricultural products. Almost 19,409,000 cubic feet of pinewood and over 5,324,000 cubic feet of hardwood were harvested in the county in 2003. Carthage (population, 6,959) is the county's seat of government and largest town. Other communities include Beckville (856) and Gary (315). All three had state-accredited school systems that included grades from preschool through twelfth grade; Panola College, located in Carthage, offered educational opportunities through two years of college. The Texas Country Music Hall of Fame is in Carthage.

Student or Learner
Topic: Topic of your choice (How I Face Challenges)
I am a well-groomed, casually-dressed man whose body mimics the movement of those around him, but whose mind is days ahead, studying, pondering, planning, concentrating. I am a quiet, seemingly innocuous, man who does not lurk in the shadows waiting for my next victim to inevitably step into those detrimental shadows but remains in the sunlight. I am a glasses-wearing, curly-haired man who squints at the same sunlight squinting not only to filter the sunlight, but also to see what is yet to come the destruction of my victims. I am a serial killer.
I study my victims very closely. Every facet and every detail of their lives stays under the lens of my glasses. My eyes, watery and red from reading, are fixated on the pages on which their lives unfold. Flipping each page, intent on understanding everything my victims have within them, I study every minute detail, pondering what each detail will reveal to me about this world.
My victims are difficult to recall. Their numerous details are challenging to retain; however, I am up to the challenge. In fact, this challenge fuels me, makes me want to feel the enlightenment when their destruction is complete. This challenge enables me to push through the ache of my brain as I concentrate on the details and the hurt in my hands as I annotate every aspect of their lives.
Information is key; retrieval of this information requires social interaction. My victims are also studied by others; therefore, I always have a plethora of prospective informants. Retrieving information from these informants pleases me. The constant interaction with them introduces me to many people, people with interests similar and dissimilar to my own, people with whom I can engage in both intelligent and comical debates, people who become my friends.
Studying is good but relaxation is better. The friends I make not only help me retrieve information and achieve the destruction of my victims, but they also draw me out of the manic studying I get sucked into once I start. They let me experience the enjoyment in life that studying rids. This enjoyment is uplifting and removes the ache from my brain and the ache of my hands. However, challenges, when incomplete, seem to draw me back and I resume my studies, aiming and hoping for my victims' ultimate destruction.
The final moment, the final test, the ultimate destruction. All my studying culminates into a final moment. All my victims line up, one after the other, awaiting their fate while I approach them one at a time. My first victim Science, my second - Math, third - English, fourth - Government, fifth Religion; and sixth - Technology.
The tests come back and my challenge has been completed my current victims, destroyed. A's on all of them. My serial killing passion has been quelled, momentarily. Friends and enjoyment take over my life, temporarily. Now, another victim appears and again brings out the serial killer in me. The challenges these new victims bring seem insurmountable; however, this challenge fuels me to surmount this insurmountable victim College.
Anybody else have feedback?

People Are Waking Up to the Dark Side of American Policing, and Cops Don't Like It One Bit
If you've been listening to various police agencies and their supporters, then you know what the future holds: anarchy is coming — and it's all the fault of activists.
In May, a Wall Street Journal op-ed warned of a "new nationwide crime wave" thanks to "intense agitation against American police departments" over the previous year. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie went further. Talking recently with the host of CBS's Face the Nation, the Republican presidential hopeful asserted that the Black Lives Matter movement wasn't about reform but something far more sinister. "They've been chanting in the streets for the murder of police officers," he insisted. Even the nation's top cop, FBI Director James Comey, weighed in at the University of Chicago Law School, speaking of "a chill wind that has blown through American law enforcement over the last year."
According to these figures and others like them, lawlessness has been sweeping the nation as the so-called Ferguson effect spreads. Criminals have been emboldened as police officers are forced to think twice about doing their jobs for fear of the infamy of starring in the next viral video. The police have supposedly become the targets of assassins intoxicated by "anti-cop rhetoric," just as departments are being stripped of the kind of high-powered equipment they need to protect officers and communities. Even their funding streams have, it's claimed, come under attack as anti-cop bias has infected Washington, D.C. Senator Ted Cruz caught the spirit of that critique by convening a Senate subcommittee hearing to which he gave the title, "The War on Police: How the Federal Government Undermines State and Local Law Enforcement." According to him, the federal government, including the president and attorney general, has been vilifying the police, who are now being treated as if they, not the criminals, were the enemy.
Beyond the storm of commentary and criticism, however, quite a different reality presents itself. In the simplest terms, there is no war on the police. Violent attacks against police officers remain at historic lows, even though approximately 1,000 people have been killed by the police this year nationwide. In just the past few weeks, videos have been released of problematic fatal police shootings in San Francisco and Chicago.
While it's too soon to tell whether there has been an uptick in violent crime in the post-Ferguson period, no evidence connects any possible increase to the phenomenon of police violence being exposed to the nation. What is taking place and what the police and their supporters are largely reacting to is a modest push for sensible law enforcement reforms from groups as diverse as Campaign Zero, Koch Industries, the Cato Institute, The Leadership Conference, and the ACLU (my employer). Unfortunately, as the rhetoric ratchets up, many police agencies and organizations are increasingly resistant to any reforms, forgetting whom they serve and ignoring constitutional limits on what they can do.

3 October 2014 (BBC News Europe) Heavy firing could be heard near the airport - strategically important for both sides in the conflict. A government spokesman said the rebels had broken into one of the terminals but were later pushed back. The rebels say they have seized the airport. A truce agreed in eastern Ukraine on 5 September looks increasingly fragile.
On Friday US Secretary of State John Kerry spoke on the phone with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov to "express his concern about intensifying violence in eastern Ukraine". "Russia must use its influence with the separatists and end these attacks immediately", state department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
"The situation in the area of Donetsk airport remains difficult," Ukrainian military spokesman Vladyslav Seleznyov told Ukraine's Kanal 5 TV.
"The militants, using smoke bombs as a cover, broke into the ground floor of the old terminal," he said.
Ukrainian soldiers had pushed the rebels from half the building, Mr Seleznyov added.But leaders of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic claimed that their fighters had seized the whole airport. Eyewitnesses earlier told local media that a number of rebels had been killed during the clashes. A correspondent for Associated Press news agency reported seeing three rebel tanks firing at the main terminal, with sniper shots ringing out.
Fighting for the airport - a vantage point for the Ukrainian army to fire on positions in rebel-held Donetsk - has intensified in recent days. Ukraine says two servicemen have been killed and another nine wounded since Thursday. Mr Seleznyov also accused Russia of sending drones over the airport to help the rebels' reconnaissance efforts and direct fire. Russia has denied sending arms to the rebels or soldiers to eastern Ukraine, though it says "volunteers" have crossed into Ukraine. Earlier, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) condemned indiscriminate shelling in east Ukraine after a Red Cross employee was killed. Swiss citizen Laurent DuPasquier, 38, died when a shell landed near ICRC offices in Donetsk on Thursday.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer Makes Unannounced Visit to Afghanistan, Confronts Reality
Brewer Made Unannounced Visit to Afghanistan
Gov. Jan Brewer made an unannounced trip to military bases in Afghanistan this week as she visited with service members from Arizona and flew around the war-torn nation in helicopters with guns hanging out the windows.
Details of the trip were kept under wraps for security reasons as the Republican governor quietly left the state over the weekend, though details about her travels trickled out.
The governor said Wednesday during a call to reporters that she jumped at the chance to travel to Afghanistan and that the trip gave her a deeper appreciation of the professionalism and courage of service members.
"You tend to forget that everyone is carrying real guns and they are putting their lives on the line," Brewer said. "You know that but until you actually see it, it's very different."
Yes, Jan. Did you know that Border Patrol agents carry real guns, too? And did you know that anyone in Arizona who is 21 or older can carry a concealed real gun, without even a permit needed? I guess that won't seem real either until you actually see it, even though you signed the bill.
The law's passage is the culmination of several years of political maneuvering to ease gun regulations in Arizona.
During her time as governor, Janet Napolitano vetoed at least a dozen different weapons bills - several similar to the law going into effect today - that would have eased restrictions on gun owners.
But Napolitano's departure and the appointment of Gov. Jan Brewer in January 2009 gave the Legislature and gun-rights groups an ally in the executive office. Brewer signed the law April 16.
Responsible government!
More along the same lines here.
Gov. Jan Brewer, in her first trip to Afghanistan, said the war in real life is "unimaginable."

Miles Smiles, but his grin is a wry one – given the angular energy of the set! The album's a landmark effort from the mid 60s quintet that includes Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams – all of whom work without fail to capture Davis' newly emerging approach to jazz – a style that's touched with some of the light lyricism of the late 50s, but which has much sharper edges overall – and really approaches some of the best "new thing" modes that were going down at labels like Blue Note or Impulse! Many tunes have a subtly spare quality, but nonetheless work with a tremendous amount of power – and titles include a classic version of "Freedom Jazz Dance", a haunting take on Shorter's "Footprints", and the titles "Orbits", "Circle", "Dolores", and "Gingerbread Boy". © 1996-2020, Dusty Groove, Inc.

|Rainmaker Taking Credit For Increase In Moisture
Great Falls Tribune
Billings (Associated Press)
The drought in eastern Montana is ending, says the rainmaker who has been touring the area for farmers and ranchers the last several weeks.
But Ryan said that with God's help and the faith of those who supported his efforts all across eastern and central Montana , moisture impulses were pulled into the state and should continue to come.
Rural Montanans from Opheim to Brady to the Musselshell Valley have contributed thousands of dollars in a desperate effort to end a drought that some are comparing to the Dust Bowl days of the Great Depression. Eastern Montana farm and ranch groups have hired him about a dozen times since the early 1990s.
This year, Ryan and Gigi first came in February at the urging of a rancher in the Brady area.
"It took us 37 days in February and March to produce the first good pulse of moisture," he said. Then April dawned wet and remained wet all month. But a gigantic dust storm in Mongolia that swept across the Pacific Ocean stopped waves of moisture from reaching the entire Northwest of the U.S. in May, according to Ryan.
"Still, over time, this area is getting healthier," he said. "It only took us 23 days this time."
The welcome June moisture won't end the drought, he warned, but it is putting good moisture on the ground, and moisture brings in more moisture, which he hopes will carry Montana back to more normal patterns of rain and snowfall.
"If you got enough rain right now to end the drought, you'd have flooding, which is how nature ends these things sometimes. But we don't want that," Ryan said. "But I think we can say the drought has been broken in the entire eastern part of the state."
In answer to the critics, Ryan's supporters are quick to point out that sustained rains of several days at a time have followed him everywhere on his trips across the vast plains of eastern Montana.
"Montana is the biggest weather lab on earth," he said. He can spot clouds a hundred miles away in any direction out on the Great Plains. And the people have moved him too during his many stays in towns across the state. Ryan says he's been amazed that even the most hard-bitten ranchers are willing to listen.
Ryan wants people to understand weather better, to think about it differently, and understand that they can influence it.

What are Power Transmission Belts?
Power transmission belts help to drive the transmission by the transfer of power to different parts in the system. This system normally consists of a belt and at least two pulleys to transmit the motion needed, commonly used in the automotive industry.
Types of Power Transmission Belts
Power transmission belts come in various types and styles. Popular types include:
- V-belts - have tapered sides and a flat bottom with a trapezoidal cross section. They work by using the friction between the belt and the pulley to transfer power and have a higher power transmission capacity than flat belts. V-belts are popular due to ease of installation, low cost and are available in a wide range of sizes.
- Synchronous belts - also known as timing belts, have a toothed profile and can be used as an alternative to chains and gears. They overcome belt slippage with teeth that engage with corresponding grooves in the pulley or sprocket boosting drive efficiency above a V-belt. Theyre used in high-powered transmission applications, such as water pumps, fuel injection pumps and camshafts. They are thin and flexible making them ideal for use where high speed or small pulleys are required. They are less noisy than chain drives and energy efficient through the life of the belt.
- Flat belts - have a rectangular cross section that provides a greater level of consistent friction between belts and pulleys. They have low creep and are efficient due to their low bending losses and energy saving properties and are used in all areas industrial areas using power transmission for their versatility.
Things to consider when choosing a Power Transmission Belt
Power Transmission belts are used in a wide range of industrial applications and its important to know the application for which they are intended and to choose the right belt for the job. Choosing the wrong belt can lead to damage of equipment or safety issues.
Some general criteria to consider when choosing your belt include:
- Power capacity
- High speeds
- Energy efficiency
- Dust and abrasives
- Oil resistance
- Ambient temperature
Providing you have the proper installation and maintenance in place, selecting the correct belt will ensure a long belt life and trouble-free service.

Springer gets first day off since callup
HOUSTON -- George Springer won't have to worry about following up Friday night's walk-off hit.
The rookie right fielder got Saturday off, ending a string of 15 straight starts since his mid-April callup.
"It's … just a breather," Porter said. "He's played every day since he's been here. Started thinking about it midway through the game yesterday. Sometimes, we have to protect them from themselves. And I think it's a good day for him to take a step back, relax a little bit, look at the game from a different perspective and get back in there tomorrow and be ready to go."
The touted Springer may have been pressing during his first few weeks, only hitting .180 and committing some head-scratching errors in the outfield while batting cleanup.
But the game-winner he chopped to knock off the Mariners in 11 innings may unshackle Springer from some of the burden-high expectations put on him.
"That was part of my thought process," Porter said. "I was really excited that he was able to get that game-winning hit. Obviously, it was big for the team. It was big for him. And I think it kind of just helps this whole process here of giving him a day to kind of step back and move forward from there."
Alex Presley got the start in Springer's place, with reserve Marwin Gonzalez manning the left-field spot to create a seldom-seen outfield for the Astros.

Unboxing, form factor, and basic use
Unboxing the iPad is the least of the wonders the device has in store, but it is still an Apple product and countless hours of thoughtfulness went into its packaging. We won't waste many words on this section, but the packaging is a nod to that of the MacBook Air, which itself diverges from the rest of Apple's products.
Inside is the iPad with a thin information packet, a USB 30-pin dock connector, and a wall power charger stored underneath. A dock is sold separately for $30 and, although it pains us as much as it pains you to be nickel and dimed by Apple for seemingly small-but-essential items, we do think it makes life easier when it comes to syncing, typing with a Bluetooth keyboard, turning the iPad into a digital photo frame, and more.
Let's get physical
When we first played with the iPad at Apple's media event in January, we said it was comparable to a Kindle DX in terms of size and heft. We're sticking to that assessment as the closest comparison, although in reality, the iPad is a little bigger and heftier than a Kindle DX. An iPad measures 9.56" in height, 7.47" in width, 0.5" in thickness, and 1.5 pounds (for the WiFi model—1.6 for WiFi + 3G). Comparatively, the Kindle DX is 10.4 tall, 7.2" wide, and 0.38" thick while weighing just under 1.2 pounds.
Other items that are about 0.5" thick are the fattest part of (any generation) iPhone, the middle part of a MacBook Air, or a little less than three Triscuit crackers stacked on top of one another. Most iPad users seem to agree that the device is a bit thicker and heavier than expected, but not in a way that makes it too awkward. We do think that the iPad is more difficult than comparable devices to hold in one hand for extended periods of time, and this can be an annoyance for longtime Kindle users.

Story highlights
NEW: Arctic air has kept temperatures in the capital, Kiev, below average for over a week
Hundreds of people have needed treatment for hypothermia, state media says
The cold snap has killed 83 people, a health official is quoted as saying
Bitter cold last winter claimed more than 110 lives in Ukraine
A cold snap in Ukraine has killed 83 people, while hundreds more have sought treatment for hypothermia and frostbite, according to state media reports.
Some 536 people have been hospitalized with hypothermia, an adviser to Health Minister Volodymyr Yurchenko is quoted as saying Friday by state news agency Ukrinform.
Of those 83 have died, he told a meeting of the Emergency Situations Ministry.
Authorities have set up nearly 2,800 "heating points" to help vulnerable people across the country, according to the Emergency Situations Ministry website.
Between December 15 and 21, these relief centers have helped more than 13,500 people, it said.
Cold arctic air has blasted Ukraine for more than a week, forcing temperatures in the capital, Kiev, below the December average high of 0 degrees and low of -5 degrees Celsius, CNN forecasters say.
The mercury in Kiev hasn't risen above -8 degrees Celsius (17.6 degrees Fahrenheit) since Monday. But the chilliest period came Tuesday, when it plummeted to -17 degrees Celsius (1.4 degree Fahrenheit.)
While the forecast doesn't look much better over the next couple of days, the capital may get back to near average temperatures on December 25 and 26.
Last winter, more than 110 people died in Ukraine as a result of a bitter cold spell that lasted around a month, from January into February.
The government said then that more 90% of the deaths were alcohol-related, with some victims drinking in the mistaken belief it would help keep them warm.
CNN's Laura Smith-Spark and Judson Jones contributed to this report.

Scary business: Students support demoted TA
Justin Gifford seems to be on a lot of "Most Wanted" lists.
Over the years there have been waiting lists for his classes, and he received a prestigious teaching award from the Seven Society in 2003. But ever since the arrest of his entire English class at the Blue Ridge Sanatorium, he's also had several people calling for his head.
On September 23, the ill-fated class made its way out to the abandoned tuberculosis hospital nestled at the foot of Monticello Mountain. Gifford says that by visiting the decaying site, owned by the UVA Real Estate Foundation, he was hoping to help his students turn detective stories into real-life goose-bumps. He had no idea he was going to do such a thorough job.
Since they thought they were on University property, the group took some liberties. They ignored "No Trespassing" signs, climbed over fences, and even pried open boarded-up doors before loading their cameras and setting off down the eerie hallways.
Tim Rose was none too pleased to hear of Gifford's shenanigans. As head of the University Foundation, Rose was the one contacted by police after a witness tipped them off to the presence of the intruders at a place that's frequently been the victim of vandalism and thefts of architectural artifacts. Rose told police to proceed with the arrests.
Charges were dropped within a week, and the University covered the court costs for the arrested students. But the fallout was far from over. Gifford sent a pointedly informal email to his distressed students, as empathetic to their pending legal plight as it was less than deferential to the Foundation.
"we cannot change what happened, but we can change what it means to us," Gifford wrote. "if this class is about anything, it is about a confrontation with the law and ghosts and feelings of dread and horror. i certainly felt enough dread to last me a lifetime when i saw the police coming at me with frowny faces down that dark hospital corridor."
Signed "Justin 'corrupting the youth' Gifford," the email was forwarded to a parent and eventually made its way to University officials.
"The email did not help him," says Gordon Braden, head of the English department.
Now, the celebrated young teacher is out of that job, and the students have found their course disrupted mid-semester. When they registered, they had been promised an exploration of the ways in which indefinite fears of a black insurgency influenced authors such as Poe and Melville.
"The course was not 'Detective Fiction'; the course was 'The Racialization of Detective Fiction,' which requires a deep background knowledge of race theory," says Elizabeth Rothschild, one of many students calling for Gifford's reinstatement. She claims that Gifford is one of only a few individuals adequately qualified to teach the class.
"The students quite literally revolted," says Gifford. Dissatisfied with the University's attempt to replace him with post-doctoral student Ken Parille, they brought the administration a petition with some 700 signatures.
In response, the University handed over responsibility for the course to Eric Lott, a prominent professor and Gifford's dissertation adviser.
"He's probably the only person who I'd say is qualified to teach this class, given the materials and the subject matter," says Gifford. "Short of my being in the class, this is the best thing that could happen to them, because they'll get an amazing experience under his guidance."
UVA officials are quick to point out that Gifford has not been fired, but rather "relieved of his teaching duties" and offered an alternative assignment.
"The position that I've been offered is not going to make me enough money to live on," he says. "If I were to go in and do the number of hours that it would require, I wouldn't have any time to work on my dissertation."
Although Gifford– winner of the 2003 Seven Society Graduate Fellowship for Superb Teaching, a $7,000 prize bestowed by UVA's most secretive group– retains his status as a graduate student within the department, he denounces the University's position.
"The thing that they've said in the newspapers is that they don't discuss personnel issues," he says. "But I've told them that they can discuss anything with regard to me. I'm the one saying, 'Let it all hang out.' "
On October 5, Student Council narrowly passed a resolution calling for Gifford's reinstatement. Braden and Rose declined to comment.
Rothschild, on the other hand, is decidedly less tight-lipped. "He's really touched a lot of people," she says.
If the hundred-plus supportive emails that Gifford says are crowding his inbox are any indication, his popularity may last for a while.

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are closing mostly higher on early signs of progress on ending a budget stalemate in Washington.
President Barack Obama is making plans to talk with Republican lawmakers at the White House in the coming days as pressure builds on both sides to resolve their deadlock over the federal debt limit and the partial government shutdown.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 26 points, or 0.2 percent, to close at 14,803 Wednesday.
The Standard & Poor's 500 rose a point, or 0.1 percent, at 1,656. The Nasdaq composite fell 17 points, or 0.5 percent, to 3,677.
Rising and falling stocks were evenly split on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume was higher than average at 3.6 billion shares.

Was (N0t Was) were a passion shared between my father and I during the late 90's/early 2000's. Detroit natives David Weiss and Don Ferguson (who changed their professional names to "Was") were childhood friends from the suburbs. Due in part to Don's impoverished life at the time,they duo came together to form Was (Not Was) in 1979. The pair composed the music and wrote the lyrics,while two vocalists in Sir Harry Bowens and "Sweet Pea" Atkinson rounded out the quartet. Was (Not Was) became one of the most important and unique musical collectives of the 80's and early 90's.
Don Was would become a well known producer for artists such as Bonnie Raitt,Stevie Nicks,Carly Simon,Ziggy Marley,Bob Dylan and Hootie & The Blowfish. His own band on the other hand specialized in a funky stew of music that often placed guest singers in unexpected musical settings. As for Sweet Pea Atkinson,he seems to be a bit of a mystery man. But its his birthday today. And vocally speaking,he's one of my personal favorite aspects of Was (Not Was)'s sound. One of his highlights with the group came via their self titled 1981 album. It was entitled "Where Did You Your Heart Go?".
Sweet Pea opens the song singing the lead chorus of the song as a swinging drum brush plays through in the back round along with Johnny Allen's string arrangements and a counter melody by sax player David McMurray. The jazzy funk bass lines of Jervonny Collier kind of create the main body of the song from this point onward. All led into by McMurray's sax and a slow crawling drum/percussion based groove. Between the refrain to chorus transitions,a high brittle melodic synthesizer and a string synth with more polyphony play a lead role. After another sax solo,the chorus brings the song to its end.
One thing my father and I both agreed on listening to this album was the strength of this song. Sweet Pea Atkinson's strong,rangy and idiosyncratic vocal inflections are part of what carries it. Even more so,Don and David actually crafted this song specifically to his style-fashioning a sophistifunk number with the melodic modulations of an mid 20th century American pop standard. As Henrique Hopkins recently pointed out to me,Wham! covered the song in 1986. And hi Henrique's case,that's what he thought was the original version. Shows you how melodically strong funk/soul songwriting always finds its place.

The announcement, on October 25, 2010 that Sony would be discontinuing the production of Walkmans was met by a lot of nostalgia and surprise. Some people had already thought the Walkman was dead. To be honest, I wouldn't blame them for thinking that way especially with how digital music players, namely the iPod, have taken over our world. In fact, many lists highlighted the iPod as the invention that changed the world of music in the 2000s. I, for one, am going to miss the Walkman.
I even wrote a long post for this during the summer about my affinity for the tech stuff I used growing up. You can find it here. Both items are considered to be revolutionary in terms of how we listen to our music and have shaped the music industry and the definition of what songs are hits or flops. Since the introduction of the iPod, for example, the biggest indicator has become the download rate for a song or how many copies an album sells on iTunes.
Still the Walkman did leave its impact on the world, giving music enthusiasts a chance to take their music with them wherever they went.
This does not mean, however, that we should be in mourning. This is because Apple have unveiled the newest generations of iPod shuffle, iPod nano, and iPod touch, and they look amazing. It's hard to imagine that they have only been around for 9 years, because it sure feels like forever. (more…)

I'll take "Members of Dr. Fünke's 100% Natural Good-Time Family Band Solution" for $800, Alex.
This blue man from "Arrested Development" was a clue on last night's "Jeopardy."
Who is Tobias Fünke?
You're never going to get back the two seconds it took to read that terrible intro gimmick, and I'm really sorry about that. Honest. But yes, everyone's favorite Frightened Inmate Number Two was a clue on "Jeopardy," and now the Internet is upset. Why? BECAUSE THAT WALKING OLD WOMAN'S DRY DREAM TREBEK PRONOUNCED HIS NAME WRONG. (I'm more disappointed at the umlaut being left off "Fünke" than I am about the mispronunciation, though.) Gee, he really Britta'd that! Oh wait, wrong show. Trebek, um, really pulled a Homer? D'oh! If only there was an "Arrested Development" reference that could succinctly define this situation, and how much Trebek BLUE it, man. He's sure got a mess on his hands. Come on, Josh…I guess I'm just distracted thinking about how he would have said "analrapist."

Syngenta Secures EU Approval For Next Generation Fungicide
-- Isopyrazam sets new standard in disease control
-- Consistent crop yield enhancement
-- Product registrations across multiple crops planned
Nov 13, 2012, 01:01 ET
BASEL, Switzerland, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Syngenta today announced that it has received European Union (EU) approval for isopyrazam, the first active ingredient from its strong pipeline of next generation fungicides. Approval represents a major step forward in the control of a wide spectrum of damaging fungal diseases, including best-in-class performance against Yellow Rust.
Isopyrazam's advanced "double-binding" technology ensures strong adhesion to fungus and to leaf wax, providing long-lasting and durable disease protection.
Under the EU's provisional approval system, British and Irish cereal farmers have for the past two growing seasons experienced the benefits of isopyrazam, which is marketed as SEGURIS™ in wheat and BONTIMA™ in barley. These growers have consistently achieved better disease control, which has helped deliver higher crop yields: SEGURIS treatments increase yield by up to two tonnes per hectare versus current chemistries.
John Atkin, Chief Operating Officer, said: "Breakthrough chemical innovation is an enduring part of our integrated strategy. Isopyrazam sets the highest standards for disease control and yield response and this approval means growers throughout the EU can now benefit from this important addition to our portfolio."
Syngenta intends to register a range of products containing isopyrazam in major EU markets for use on cereals and others crops such as oilseed rape, vegetables and pome fruits.
Syngenta is one of the world's leading companies with more than 26,000 employees in over 90 countries dedicated to our purpose: Bringing plant potential to life. Through world-class science, global reach and commitment to our customers we help to increase crop productivity, protect the environment and improve health and quality of life.
