Rob Kallenbach would like livestock producers to rethink how they handle winter feed.
With higher inputs, the cost of getting hay to cows goes up also.
Kallenbach can give some best management practice, or BMP, tips on cutting costs.
First, he gives his top preference: "Don't feed hay at all." Increasingly, producers keep herds on stockpiled fescue right on through the winter, without hay. When grass is under snowdrifts, hay must be fed. But that is Plan B.
Look at two ways to cut hay-feeding costs. First, cut waste. It's not uncommon to lose 40% of baled hay.
Second, use less time — that's less tractor time, moving big bales in winter. That saves money and keeps farmers out of wind chills.
Driving down the road, Kallenbach spots what he considers too much hay wastage.
• Rising inputs boost the cost of making and feeding hay.
• It's common for livestock to waste almost half of the hay in winter feeding.
• The right bale ring or unrolling method can cut hay loss significantly.
Put out just enough hay to meet the daily nutrient demands. That takes simple arithmetic. If a cow needs 35 pounds of hay a day, multiply that times cows in the herd.
For a 100-head cowherd, that is 3,500 pounds of hay, or about three big bales. Adjust for cow size and bale size. Unrolling hay is a big improvement over giving cows unrolled bales. Bale rings help preserve quality hay.
Without a bale ring, hay becomes bedding. Rings reduce waste from 40% down to 5% to 10%. If you count the true cost of hay that's big savings.
There are differences in bale rings. Studies in North Dakota show that cone feeders can cut loss even more — down to 4%. The higher quality the hay, the greater the cost savings and quicker payback on ring investments.
Too often Kallenbach sees bale rings left in the same spot all winter. Moving the rings spreads the waste hay and manure over the field. That's soil nutrient management.
The longer a ring is left in place, the deeper it becomes buried and the tougher it is to move. Frequent moves keep rings above-ground, not frozen in place.
The forage specialist also sees good ideas. For small herds whose owners work off-farm, hay feeding can be done using the controlled-grazing paddock method.
One day a week, unroll hay for one day of feeding in each paddock. Or, polywires can be strung to make hay-feeding paddocks across a pasture. Feeding time each day involves opening the hot-wire gate to the next paddock.
Unrolling hay this way helps solve the problem of matching bale size to herd size. It also allows for adjusting how much hay is fed next time.
"If there is still lots of hay left when you come back the next day, that's a clue to cut back on hay," Kallenbach notes.
Winter hay feeding takes observation, just as summer grazing management requires observation. At the MU forage center at Linneus, big bales are spaced along the edge of paddocks, often in two rows, where they will be fed. They are not butted up against each other, as is usual.
When stored, the bales are fenced off with a polywire. In winter, the wire is moved to expose the bales to be fed. Feeding areas are moved each year to spread the nutrient load. After the stockpiled fescue in a paddock is eaten, the bale area is opened, say three bales at a time.
Hay-feeding tips are included in MU guide sheet G4570. It is available through local MU Extension centers or online at extension.missouri.edu/publications/displaypub.aspx?p=g4570.
BALE BMP: Baled hay, fed without a ring or controlled unrolling, often becomes bedding and toilet for the cowherd. Half of the hay can be wasted, adding to the cost of your winter feeding bill.

Vancouver is one of the most popular destinations in Canada, and certainly one of its most diverse.
By hiring a car, not only can you explore the entire city, but you have the chance to get out and see more of this stunning country.
One of the main roads running through Vancouver is Highway 99, a huge motorway that runs all the way from White Rock up to Stein Valley Heritage Park. You can also follow Highway 1 from Vancouver across the country to Winnipeg.
There are a huge number of car hire providers in Vancouver, so by searching on our booking engine you can find the best deal for your needs.
Some of the top suppliers in the area include Budget, Alamo and Hertz, so you can be reassured that you're in safe hands.
In addition, since many of these providers service all of the major cities in Canada, if you're planning a road trip then you'll find it easy to arrange to pick up your vehicle in one location and return it to another.
When you reach Vancouver, you can either pick up your hire car from the airport or the city centre.
If you've arranged to collect it at Vancouver airport (YVR) once your flight arrives, then you'll find all of the suppliers based just outside of the terminal in the car park, which the locals refer to as the Parkade.
Alternatively, if you'd prefer to collect your car in the city centre, then you'll find the suppliers based in various different locations. Upon making your booking you'll receive the address, most of which can be reached either on foot or by taking a taxi.
The city of Vancouver is fairly large, so you'll find it has a number of different neighbourhoods that you can explore.
Commercial Drive, which runs through the centre of the neighbourhood of Grandview-Woodland is surrounded by parkland, as well as Trout Lake. The parks are particularly popular on sunny days, as people flock to them to enjoy a picnic and relax.
On Saturdays, between May and October, head to John Hendry Park to visit the farmer's market, an event that gets very busy due to its immense popularity.
Since you have a hire car, why not head out and explore some of the other destinations surrounding Vancouver?
Just half an hour south of Vancouver is the city of Richmond, a beautiful coastal destination. Here you can enjoy the stunning sights along the waterfront, as well as the surrounding mountainous vistas and of course, the city itself. You will definitely want to sample some of the fresh seafood served in Richmond, as well as what's often considered the best Chinese food outside of Asia.
Slightly further south along Highway 99 is White Rock, another beautiful coastal city. This area boasts around 8km of sandy white beaches, as well as the famous pier that stretches 1,500 ft into the shallow, warm waters of Semiahmoo Bay.
Your hire car gives you the freedom to explore much further afield, although where you go really does depend on how far you wish to drive. The roads in Canada are known to be very long, so you could drive for days if you wanted to.
An hour and a half north of Vancouver is Whistler, an area that has thrived due to its popularity among skiers. This is the largest area where you can ski in all of North America, and it sees around 12 metres of snowfall every year.
If you're looking to drive for a few days and take in the stunning rural areas of Canada, then why not head to Banff, which takes just over eight hours to get to. This area is absolutely stunning, and is surrounded by the Rocky Mountains. The massive areas of parkland are also home to creatures such as elk and grizzly bears.
You certainly won't be short of things to see and do in Vancouver, and your hire car makes it even easier to reach them all.
Whatever type of food you fancy, you'll be sure to find it in Vancouver. Explore everything, from the fine-dining restaurants to the array of street food stalls. In fact, the area has been known to attract foodies from across the globe.
The level of quality of food extends to drinking in Vancouver as well. You can explore the wide choice of quirky bars and pubs, or head for a night on the town. Whether you're looking for a quiet evening or something more lively, you'll be sure to find it in this stunning city.
There's no end of things to do in Vancouver. The diverse background of its residents has helped the city to create a rich culture, particularly when it comes to the arts.
With over 21 theatres, as well as events such as the Vancouver Fringe Festival, Bard on the Beach and Theatre Under the Stars, you can easily see a fantastic show in the city.
If you're visiting with the family, then you won't want to miss out on a trip to Vancouver Aquarium, which has a worldwide reputation as a leading marine science centre. It's home to more than 70,000 animals, so you can easily spend a full day exploring and delighting in the exhibits.
Undoubtedly one of the most stunning sights to see in Vancouver is the whales. Between March and October every year, see thousands of whales migrate through the waters, including humpback whales, orcas, gray whales and minke whales.
Many tours also take place during this time, which can take you out to the Gulf and San Juan islands where you can get a much better view of these stunning animals.
You should also head to one of the many parks and gardens to take in the beautiful scenery. Queen Elizabeth Park is particularly popular for its variety of cherry trees, which bloom in the spring and make for a stunning backdrop to a day in the park.

The Graduate and Professional Student Council halted their weekly meeting Wednesday night and evoked executive session privacy to discuss "personnel issues" shortly after English Graduate Union Co-Chairwoman Erica Cirillo-McCarthy questioned Talenfeld about his public voicing of stances on fees that differed from those of the council.
The Arizona Daily Wildcat published an editorial written by Talenfeld that seemed to endorse a philosophical "no other alternative" stance to accepting all proposed student fees, what some GPSC representatives said runs contrary to that of the council's and graduate students wishes.
"Some of my students are on scholarship that only covers (base) tuition. When these fees go up $1,000, it comes out of their pockets," said EGU Co-Chair Laura Bivona after the meeting. Bivona explained that graduate students, who are offered tuition waivers to teach undergraduate classes, face extra hardships because they are still responsible to pay student fees.
Both ASUA and GPSC agreed to support President Robert Shelton in requesting the Arizona Board of Regents approve increases to support budget gaps in the UA library system, improved internet technology throughout campus, and a combined health and recreation fee.
GPSC has declined to endorse instituting other fees like those proposed by the grass-roots activist organization Arizona Public Interest Research Group and Campus Sustainability, both of which want access to students funds to provide support for environmental and other research.
Bivona and Cirillo-McCarthy also take issue with Talenfeld signing his "personal" letter as GPSC President: "We've talked to our constituents about what they want," Bivona said.
The joint statement released Tuesday can be read online on GPSC's webpage. Talenfeld apologized for vagueness in his Daily Wildcat letter that did not specify it was of his own personal opinion, but stated that he still believes fee endorsement decisions should be made publicly and by votes of elected student representatives.
The GPSC constitution lists "misrepresentation of the GPSC to outside persons" as grounds for impeachment of representatives.
"It's not what we voted for. The (ASUA & GPSC) statement says 'hey let's break this down and negotiate this and (Talenfeld's) letter says otherwise," Cirillo-McCarthy said.
Talenfeld said he believes students need to consider looking ahead to establish long term financial support for issues that matter to students, and that does not run contrary to GPSC's overall position to represent students.
College of Engineering Representative Robert Jacobi, who initiated the vote to evoke executive session said "it's hard to say" whether or not Talented intentionally misrepresented the GPSC.

Eucalyptus kessellii, commonly known as Jerdacuttup mallee, is a species of mallee that is endemic to an area along the south coast of Western Australia. It has very hard, rough bark on the trunk of larger specimens, smooth greyish and brownish bark above, lance-shaped to egg-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of three or seven, creamy white flowers and downturned, conical to cup-shaped fruit.

Description
Eucalyptus kessellii is a mallee that typically grows to a height of , rarely a single stemmed tree. It forms a lignotuber. The lower part of the trunk, sometimes the entire trunk has hard but thin, rough, dark grey bark. The bark above, sometimes the entire bark on younger plants, is smooth, greyish and brownish to pink. Young plants and coppice regrowth have egg-shaped to more or less round leaves  long and  wide. Mature plants have dull greyish green, lance-shaped to egg-shaped leaves that are  long and  wide on a petiole  wide. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils in groups of seven, sometimes three, on a broad, flat, downturned peduncle  long, the individual buds sessile or on a pedicel up to  long. Mature buds are oval to diamond-shaped,  long and  wide with a conical or slightly beaked operculum. Flowering occurs between June and September and the flowers are creamy white. The fruit is a woody, conical to cup-shaped capsule  long,  wide on a downturned pedicel and with the valves protruding above the rim of the fruit when fresh.

Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus kessellii was first formally described in 1925 by Joseph Maiden and William Blakely from a specimen collected near Salmon Gums and the description was published in Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales. The specific epithet honours Stephen Lackey Kessell.

In 1992, Ken Hill and Lawrie Johnson described two subspecies and the names have been accepted by the Australian Plant Census:
 Eucalyptus kessellii subsp. eugnosta Hill & Johnson has fruit that are smooth, or have ribs less than  high;
 Eucalyptus kessellii Maiden & Blakely subsp. kessellii has fruit that are distinctly ribbed, with ribs more than  high.

Distribution and habitat
Eucalyptus kessellii grows in mallee shrubland on calcareous loams. Subspecies eugnosta occurs from near Ravensthorpe to near Condingup and as far north as Scaddan and Gibson. Subspecies kessellii grows from north-east of Salmon Gums to near Mount Ney and Mount Ridley.

Conservation status
Both subspecies of E. kessellii are classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.

Protests to Take Place at 200 Planned Parenthood Clinics This Weekend
Veronica Neffinger | iBelieve Contributor | Wednesday, February 8, 2017
#Planned Parenthood
Protesters and pro-life advocates will gather outside nearly 200 Planned Parenthood clinics this Saturday to protest abortion and to support efforts to defund the organization.
According to The Christian Post, the protests are being organized by #ProtestPP which is a coalition of pro-life groups including Citizens for a Pro-Life Society, Created Equal, and the Pro-Life Action League.
"As Congress moves forward with plans to defund Planned Parenthood, citizens will speak up in support of this action on Saturday, Feb. 11. Groups will gather outside nearly 200 Planned Parenthood facilities across the country and the nation's capital for #DefundPP rallies," a statement from the coalition said on Monday.
Planned Parenthood officials allege that abortions only make up three percent of the services they offer, but some pro-life groups say abortions make up 94 percent of the organization's services. Recently, an undercover investigation revealed that most Planned Parenthood facilities do not provide ultrasounds like they claim to do.
The organization currently receives over $500 million annually in federal funding. Many pro-life taxpayers want to defund Planned Parenthood so that their tax dollars to not go to support abortion or to an organization that performs abortions.
Recent audits of Planned Parenthood have also found "numerous improper practices."

The reason for this makeover: I bought new table lamps for my living room, so this lamp was moved to the bedroom to use as a bedside light. It was a bit tall to reach the switch from bed, so I needed to replace the turn-knob with a pull-chain.
I'll even show you how I made the ball finial. Sure, I've made finials before too (such as this painted one and white one), but this finial is different—and easier. No painting involved.
1. Apply painter's tape in your desired pattern. My chain pattern has 3- by 2-1/2-inch links, spaced as evenly as possible. Use scissors to cut the tape with clean, straight edges.
2. Cover your work surface with paper or a drop cloth. Coat the entire outside of the lamp shade with paint.
Tip 1: Use only flat paints when painting fabric because the sheen will leave unsightly streak marks.
Tip 2: To keep paint from bleeding under the tape, try painting a coat of clear matte medium first. I didn't try it myself and had trouble with bleeding paint.
Tip 3: Most paint is opaque, which blocks light and makes your shade look darker when the light is on. If you want a more transparent color, try lightly coating your shade with spray paint instead or mix your paint with a clear matte medium.
3. Place the lampshade on a lamp or a tall vase to dry. When dry, remove the tape, then get started on your lamp (below).
You can buy the majority of these lamp parts at this Lamp Parts eBay store . Some parts only come in multiples, but even so, the prices are amazing. Just save the extras for your next lamp project. Or you can buy entire lamp kits .
1. Unplug the lamp. Remove the lamp shade and light bulb. Remove and discard the felt from under the base. Using a wrench, unscrew and remove the nut at the base of the lamp.
Tip: Save all the pieces when disassembling a lamp (except where noted above). It's even a good idea to lay them out in the correct order, as a guide for reassembling the lamp later.
2. Remove the socket cover.
3. Unscrew the screws attaching the wires to the base of the socket and disconnect the wires.
4. Pull the cord out through the bottom of the lamp. Do not remove the second nut from the pipe.
4. Because I couldn't find a silver lamp base, I spray painted my old base. If you want to do the same, first clean the base with mineral spirits to remove oils, etc. that might limit adhesion.
5. Then spray paint the base following the instructions on the can. I used Krylon Metallics Bright Silver spray paint. I also used my handy-dandy spray-painting tent.
6. Feed the new cord through the hole in the side of the base, then through the nut, washer, weight, and top hole of the base—in that order.
7. Continue by feeding the cord through the pipe.
8. Tighten down the nut underneath the base.
9. Slide the main lamp body onto the pipe.
10. Slide the check ring and saddle onto the pipe, then screw the base of the socket onto the pipe. Tighten it down securely, keeping the lamp body centered over the lamp base.
11. Loosen the screws on the socket, then curl one bare wire around and underneath the head of each screw. Tighten the screws back down to hold the wires in place.
12. Insert the socket into the socket base, then pop the socket cover onto the base. It will click when it's locked down.
13. Gently pull out some of the slack in the cord but not all of it. Clamp the plastic bushing around the cord, then insert it into the hole on the side of the lamp base.
14. Peel off the backing from the felt circle. Adhere its edges around the rim of the base.
15. Insert the harp into the saddle, screw in the light bulb, and get started on your finial (below).
1. Hold the drawer pull on top of the button finial and wrap the chain around the seam. With scissors, cut a length of ball chain that's exactly the right circumference.
2. Apply a dollop of glue on the top of the button finial, then press the bottom of the knob onto the glue.
3. Gently apply a thin line of glue all the way around the seam, them wrap the ball chain over the glue. Let dry at least 24 hours before attaching it to your harp. You're done!
Tip: The glue is still wet and slippery at this point, so handle the finial gingerly until it's dry.
Nice job… and excellent instruction. I've had a lamp that I love for several years, but the shade was bought to match a couch that is long gone. I've always heard (on makeover shows) that you can paint a lamp shade but I've been afraid to try. I am determined now to do it, and that cute finial idea as well! Now… I finally have the excuse to repaint the whole bedroom! Thanks for the inspiration!
You always amaze me with your handy work. I love the idea for the lamp shade and bookmarked the blog for future use, thanks for sharing.
I love the lamp. It matches my bedroom. Can you please tell me what color and manufacturer? Also where you purchased the paint?
Jane – The paint color is Ralph Lauren "Aged Mint" (IB25), available at The Home Depot. Thanks for the reminder. I'll add that bit of info to the post. BTW: I painted the pot the same color.
Do use use the clear matte medium on the entire shade beforehand? Or just where the tape will be?
Fantastic work! I'm ready to get to work on mine now!

Insect population decline leaves Australian scientists scratching for solutions
Mark Rigby

A global crash in insect populations has found its way to Australia, with entomologists across the country reporting lower than average numbers of wild insects.
University of Sydney entomologist Dr Cameron Webb said researchers around the world widely acknowledge that insect populations are in decline, but are at a loss to determine the cause.
"On one hand it might be the widespread use of insecticides, on the other hand it might be urbanisation and the fact that we're eliminating some of the plants where it's really critical that these insects complete their development," Dr Webb said.
"Add in to the mix climate change and sea level rise and it's incredibly difficult to predict exactly what it is."
'It's left me dumbfounded'
Entomologist and owner of the Australian Insect Farm, near Innisfail in far north Queensland, Jack Hasenpusch is usually able to collect swarms of wild insects at this time of year.
"I've been wondering for the last few years why some of the insects have been dropping off and put it down to lack of rainfall," Mr Hasenpusch said.

"This year has really taken the cake with the lack of insects, it's left me dumbfounded, I can't figure out what's going on."
Mr Hasenpusch said entomologists he had spoken to from Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and even as far away as New Caledonia and Italy all had similar stories.
The Australian Butterfly Sanctuary in Kuranda, west of Cairns, has had difficulty breeding the far north's iconic Ulysses butterfly for more than two years.
"We've had [the problem] checked by scientists, the University of Queensland was involved, Biosecurity Queensland was involved but so far we haven't found anything unusual in the bodies [of caterpillars] that didn't survive," said breeding laboratory supervisor Tina Kupke.

"We've had some short successes but always failed in the second generation."
Ms Lupke said the problem was not confined to far north Queensland, or even Australia.
"Some of our pupae go overseas from some of our breeders here and they've all had the same problem," she said.
"And the Melbourne Zoo has been trying for quite a while with the same problems."
Limited lifecycle prefaces population plummet
Dr Webb, who primarily researches mosquitoes, said numbers were also in decline across New South Wales this year, which was indicative of the situation in other insect populations.
"We've had a really strange summer; it's been very dry, sometimes it's been brutally hot but sometimes it's been cooler than average," he said.
Photo: Entomologist Dr Cameron Webb says dry conditions can affect the lifecycle of many insects, which in turn affects entire populations. (ABC: Nicola Gage)
"Mosquito populations, much like a lot of other insects, rely on the combination of water, humidity and temperature to complete their lifecycle.
"When you mix around any one of those three components you can really change the local population dynamics."
According to Dr Webb, when conditions are less than ideal the lifespan of mosquitoes and other insects plummets, thus reducing the sustainability of the entire population.
"If you're used to living for about three weeks when it's nice and warm and humid, and then you're only living for a week or so because it's really hot and dry then you don't have to chance to lay as many eggs, or do as much mating," he said.
"Those things have a knock on effect and it means the overall populations can often be much lower."
Important to listen to anecdotal evidence
At this stage, reports of insect population declines in Australia are only anecdotal.
And, without formal scientific research into the phenomena, Dr Webb said it was difficult to make accurate predictions or assessments about insect numbers.

On the other hand, he said, it is important to listen to the entomologists, ecologists and researchers who are in the field on a regular basis.
"You get a feel for what the general insect populations are like when you're doing a lot of field work," he said.
"I don't study cicadas, but I know what cicada numbers are like from year to year because I'm out and about in my local wetlands.
"When experts are relaying this kind of information it is something that we need to turn our mind to and think about what could be going on, and more importantly how do we work out if this is actually happening and what we do about it."

Education Minister Peter Weir announces changes to school reopening plans
Here's a full list of what is changing from next week
Orlaith Clinton
Education Minister Peter Weir has announced revised plans for schools reopening after the Christmas break.
This follows recent advice on the current situation of the epidemic, levels of transmission and numbers of cases.
Minister Weir said the proposed way forward has been "informed by the evidence and the advice provided".
From next Monday (January 4):
Primary school pupils will be taught remotely until 11 January, after which they will attend school for face to face teaching.
Post-primary pupils will also be taught remotely during the first week of January.
From Monday 11 January pupils in years 8 to 11 will continue to be taught remotely until the end of January while pupils in years 12 to 14 will attend school for face-to-face teaching;
Childcare settings including those attached to schools, pre-school facilities, nurseries and special schools to be open as usual;
Exams due to take place in January will be facilitated compliant with public health guidance and schools will have flexibility to deliver face-to-face teaching to pupils due to sit those exams, should they wish to do so;
Schools will accommodate vulnerable children and the children of key workers from the start of term.
The first day of the normal school term can be used to prepare for the rest of the week, the Department added.
Northern Ireland Assembly votes against Boris Johnson's post-Brexit trade deal
Health Minister Robin Swann explains when he hopes Northern Ireland can be back to normal
Youth Service provision will be stood down with targeted services moving online until the end of January.
The Minister said: "The Department of Education, the Department of Health, the Education Authority and the Public Health Agency have worked closely throughout the pandemic to maintain the education of children, to reduce the risk of outbreaks and to respond when these occur. This work has continued in recent weeks and the proposed way forward has been informed by the evidence and the advice provided. The common aim has been to keep schools safe, prioritise children's education and ensure any impact on overall transmission is as low as possible, while accepting that schools reopening as normal is not sustainable.
"While previous arrangements have been informed by the advice of the Department of Health, unfortunately the deteriorating nature of the epidemic and the risks to public health has necessitated more substantial changes.
"Therefore, having considered the advice from the Chief Medical Officer and the Chief Scientific Advisor and following discussions with them, I have decided that all primary and post-primary pupils will be taught remotely for the first week of term. Special schools and childcare provision will, however, remain open.
"All schools must provide supervised learning for vulnerable children and key workers' children.
"I must stress that these decisions are not made lightly as I know the negative impact on children's learning and mental health and well-being of not being in school. However, particularly after unprecedented levels of positive Covid-19 tests since Christmas, and the pressure this applies to our health service, it is critical that we all must consider the public health and scientific advice as we look forward to brighter days ahead."

I have to admit, I don't talk about Iran much as I am not very informed on the dynamics of the Iranian society, back when old SPEC 4 Caelestis was an intel analyst, I dealt primarily with the Arab states and North Korea. That aside, I have to say today's New York Post column by the always brilliant LTC(ret.) Ralph Peters is a grand slam. Registration is required to the post so I'll post the salient points.
The first round of Iran's presidential election was as phony as Howard Dean pretending to care about our troops.
On the other hand, Iran's doctored election results must have been inspiring to our domestic left. The fundamentalist Guardian Council in Tehran did what American intellectuals have dreamed about doing for decades. When the voters rejected them, the hard-liners changed the vote count.
The way it went down was as shameless as a Donald Trump bankruptcy. On election night, Hashemi Rafsanjani, an old fox trying a new approach, led the pack. The white-knight reform candidate, Mostafa Moin, ran second. A moderate, Mehdi Karroubi, placed third.
There wasn't a religious fascist within sight of the finish line. And the regime panicked. Pushing aside the Interior Ministry, which bore the responsibility for tallying the votes, the Revolutionary Guard jumped in to "help" count ballots. The fundamentalist Guardian Council announced the results before the counting was done.
Are you paying attention Democrats, the Iranians apparently can outdo the formidable Chicago (Daly) machine, not only can they win elections, but they can create 10% more voters than actually exist. Take a note Howard Dean, a trip to Iran could be rewarding. Why would the Mad Mullahs risk such a blatant attempt to steal this election? Col. Peters goes on to explain why he thinks it happened.
The tough guys lost their nerve. A cleric himself (if a cynical one), Rafsanjani is the one man who could out-maneuver the entire Koran-thumping pack in the ruling theocracy. Old Hashemi may not be Iran's Thomas Jefferson, but he's a devilishly capable political operator who senses the pulse of the people better than Bill Clinton.
If elected president, Rafsanjani will do a Vladimir Putin, bribing the people with social freedoms and economic progress while consolidating his own political power at the expense of the old guard who tried to deal him out of the game.
The good news is that the hardliners are still going to lose out unless they engage in electoral fraud at a level not seen since the Soviet collapse. If the hard-liners stuff so many ballot boxes that their utterly unpopular candidate "wins" the next round, they'll trigger a level of unrest unseen since the revolution that overthrew the shah.
Whether or not a big fix would result in immediate violence in the streets, the regime would be forever discredited in the eyes of the average citizen and the world (well, maybe not France).
One caution: don't expect an easy transition in Iran. The dying regime has a nasty core of supporters, just as Saddam did. But change is coming. The desperate vote rigging is likelier to hasten it than to delay it.
The hard-liners are going to pull out all the stops to elect their man in the run-off voter intimidation, bribes, phony ballots, miscounts and every other ruse they can think of. But in a paradoxical turn of events, pro-democracy Iranians now have a critical chance to make a difference.
To paraphrase my man W. Freedom is on the March, we might not see a modern secular democracy in Iran, but anytime the Mullahs lose power and social freedom improves, then the people of Iran are on the right track. Can you imagine an Iran that is on the path to democracy coupled with a democratic Iraq, a democratic Afghanistan and a democratic Lebanon? Put those together with the baby steps being taken in Egypt and Kuwait, and the other Gulf states, and very soon a pattern emerges. Before 9/11 none of this had come to pass, in less than 4 years 55 million Muslims have been freed from dictators and have established democracies (Afghanistan, Iraq and Lebanon), and a further 160 million Muslim (Egypt, Iran, Bahrain, Kuwait, Palestinian territories, Qatar, UAE, and Oman) are on the path to freedom if they can seize it for themselves. Imagine very soon, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan will stand alone if the Muslim people of the previously mentioned countries can rise to the challenge and seize their destinies. Col. Peters ends the column with a bit of irony.
The gunslingers aren't really the two candidates who'll face each other, but one battle-scarred candidate Rafsanjani and Iran's Grand Poobah of Religious Doodoo, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who believes it's been all downhill since the seventh century. Khamenei's man, the mayor, can't win without massive fraud. If the regime declares him the winner after the next round, the transparent disregard for the people's voice will further weaken the regime, not strengthen it.
The rigging of the first-round vote was foolish on another count, too: lacking a choice, reform voters will flock to Rafsanjani. He'll become an even stronger president than he otherwise might have been.
It's a strange world, when we find ourselves rooting for one of the original "Death to America" boys to become Iran's next president. What's even stranger is that he may be the man who spells death to the rogue regime he helped create.
It will be interesting to watch Iran. The Mullahs short term need to appear powerful might actually reveal the weakness of their position and bring the whole rotten structure of theocratic Iran down. I hope the people of Iran have the bravery to kick in the door.

When you need a replacement car key in Fort Worth, TX, call Jet Locksmith. We are your number one locksmith company for making replacement car keys. How will you know if you need a replacement key and not a duplicate key? When you don't have another key that will work to turn on your car and need a whole new key. Perhaps you lost your keys, or they were stolen, or maybe the key broke in half. This would mean you need a entirely new key to be cut. Jet Locksmith Fort Worth is able to create a new key for you, whether it's a metal key, transponder key, or smart key. Call us today if you are in need of a replacement car key.
What is the process of making a replacement key?
A key is made by cutting a blank that will work in your car's ignition. Every type of vehicle has different key cuts as part of the car's security. We obtain the cuts for a key by using your car's VIN. This is the number of your car's identity and no two vehicles have the same VIN. By using the VIN, we input it in our system along with the owner's information and from there we can receive the key cuts for the vehicle. Once we have the correct key cuts, we use a special machine that will cut the key accordingly. When the key is cut correctly, it will unlock the vehicle and work in the ignition.
How long will it take a technician to make a replacement key?
The time it takes to create a replacement key will depend on the type of vehicle. Every vehicle has a different security system and may use a metal key, transponder key, or smart key. Most old cars will use a regular metal key. This key only needs to be cut and will start the car's ignition. A transponder key uses an anti-theft security system and requires that the key be programmed to the car. A smart key will also need to programmed to the vehicle, but is a little more difficult because most smart keys are able to start the car without inserting it into the ignition, so they will have a higher security. When a technician gets to your location and assess the situation, they will let you exactly what needs to be done and approximately how long it will take.
As a licensed company, we provide you with the best, professional locksmith service. Our technicians are experienced with all types of vehicles to make you a replacement key. We are equipped with the latest tools and technology to make sure that your key starts your car. We are also a 24/7 mobile locksmith service, to be of help whenever you need us. We are your most trusted locksmith company in Fort Worth and the surrounding areas. We will always come to your location and you will never have to tow the car. If you take your car to the dealership, they will overcharge you and you may have to tow your car to them if the key needs to be programmed. When you are in need of a replacement car key, give us a call today at 682-478-2217!


So here's a brief run down of my visit to Occupy Democracy in Parliament Square on Saturday 25th October.
It took me a while to find it, I was expecting it to be on the main patch of grass but this had been fenced off and was surrounded by police officers. Taxpayer funded police officers guarding a piece of grass around the clock at the behest of a private security firm employed by the government to police it, also at taxpayers expense. Officers from a police force that is itself facing the threat of job losses, service cuts and privatisation as a result of the current administration's policies – all there to prevent a pro-democracy, anti-austerity protest outside parliament growing in numbers and actually forcing the issue… interesting!
I found the camp on the far side confined to a small strip of grass next to the main square. There was a good number of people in attendance, many holding up banners facing the road. Talks were happening but with no amplification (it was confiscated), so it was hard to hear what was being said at first. Especially as every couple of minutes a honk of support from a passing vehicle would trigger a cheer from the banner wavers. Every ambulance and fire engine was guaranteed a honk, a fair few cab drivers, coach drivers and random cars joined in as well. And, of course, there were the occasional heckles and uncalled for abuse from the less supportive, all met with love and tolerance from the camp.
So I watched a couple of good talks and decided to chat to some people. I was almost immediately put off, as the first person I encountered was an old school Marxist calling for violent revolution and a 'socialist dictatorship' – apparently this is the 'only way' to bring about change… Happily, this guy was clearly in a minority of one so we agreed to disagree and parted ways. I didn't see him again, I presume he eventually ducked out having repeatedly encountered the same message he received from me.
After that, things got much better. I met lots of good people, all very well informed and very optimistic that change is coming and that social progress and democratic reform is possible. I spoke to many people about NOTA and handed out many flyers. Most people were very supportive and understood straight away the need for it.
The only detractors were people who believed that withholding consent at elections is already possible (ballot spoiling, abstaining etc), I was able to explain the difference to most but not all. Including, unfortunately, one of the Occupy 'generals' (as they are probably unfairly sometimes referred to) but to be fair, he was clearly very tired and busy, not least of all from sharing on site baby minding duties with his other half… I later spoke to another 'general' who was much more receptive and keen to stay in touch, unequivocally agreeing with me that NOTA has to happen.
To cap it all off, I also got to speak to Michael Meacher MP who you'll be pleased to learn 100% supports NOTA and our efforts to get it on the ballot paper. I have his email address and will be following up to see if he can help us out in any way in the coming months.
At one point, things were soured slightly by the arrival in the vicinity of stragglers from a nearby EDL march who had decided to come and try to start a fight with Occupy… presumably, they got bored with fighting each other. Happily, and rather ironically, the large police presence quickly leapt into action and bundled them away from the scene never to return. When I left to catch my train just after dark there were many more people in attendance than when I had arrived and also, ominously, many more police officers.
All in all, a most enjoyable and positive experience not just for me but also, I hope, for the NOTA cause. A special mention and thank you to member Mark Hinchliffe for helping me to get there. Onwards & Upwards!

A disreputable old trouper is plucked from obscurity in this enigmatic novel of the theater, a Pirandellian shuffle of reality and illusion from Dutch writer Mulisch (The Assault, 1985). The Bouwmeesters were once Holland's premier theatrical family, the Dutch Barrymores; but by 1982 the only survivors are 78-year-old Uli and his sister Berta, crabby siblings living outside Amsterdam, with only death on the horizon. Uli's career as a second-rate vaudevillian ended prematurely in 1945, when he was briefly interned for having performed before the Nazis. Now, out of the blue, he is invited by an avant-garde theater in Amsterdam to play the lead in a verse melodrama: grand old man Pierre de Vries, giving his 1904 farewell performance as Prospero. Is Uli being set up? Berta fears so, but Uli finds the director respectful, the company friendly, and the role manageable (for he has never forgotten technique); he feels ecstatic, reborn even. But then the weather turns stormy: Uli must navigate Amsterdam's street life (including an "abduction" by some thugs), while also dealing with the past, when his internment is revealed during a TV interview. Here, narrator Mulisch steps forward to confess that he lacks the power to withdraw Uli from "this unholy enterprise." What he can do, evidently, is prevent artistic vindication for Uli, who will suffer a seizure during a chaotic dress rehearsal, and die ignominiously; the glory is reserved for Uli's "character," de Vries--whom Mulisch envisions, in an imagined extension of the play, being feted by tout Amsterdam (which, in yet another irony, is unaware that de Vries has just murdered his lover). Does a messy life, like Uli's, decree a messy exit? Should he have refused the theater's offer? Or does de Vries' triumphant valediction belong to Uli too, beyond the grave? Mulisch's open-ended narrative invites various interpretations; what is certain is that his richly textured, intermittently absorbing novel shows a profound knowledge, and love, of the theater.

Streak for Alexander Kristoff

Norwegian American Weekly
Norwegian road cyclist Alexander Kristoff is off to an incredible start this season with 11 victories, a winning streak, and a new title as the first ever to win Three Days of De Panne, Tour of Flanders, and Scheldeprijs in a single year.
His streak began with the Three Days of De Panne, a three-day race in Belgium. Kristoff's three stage victories and a third-place finish in the time trial earned him the victory as well as the points classification. Second place went to Stijn Devolder and third to Bradley Wiggins, both of Belgium. This year's race took place from March 31 to April 2, leading right up to the prestigious Tour of Flanders.
Considered one of the biggest races in the world, the Tour of Flanders is the second of the season's Five Monuments of Cycling. Kristoff became the first Norwegian to ever win the Tour of Flanders, held in Belgium on Easter Sunday, April 5.
The monument race ended in an exciting 30 kilometer sprint finish between Kristoff and Niki Terpstra of the Netherlands. Demonstrating his strength as a sprinter, Kristoff beat Terpstra to the finish line with Belgian Greg Van Avermaet following in third.
"It has been one of the season's big goals, and it is a fantastic feeling. That I managed to achieve it so well almost exceeds all expectations," said Kristoff after his Flanders victory.
"It is maybe the biggest victory in my entire career," he continues, noting that this win is proof that he can excel in the classics as well as sprinting.
NRK's cycling expert and former cycling professional Dag Erik Pedersen agrees that Kristoff's career reached a new level at Flanders. "Kristoff is the best cyclist in the world right now. Not only because he won the race, but even more because of the way he did it," said Pedersen.
Is the Norwegian really the world's best cyclist? It's hard to say, but Kristoff's continued success certainly supports Pedersen's claim. Just three days after Tour of Flanders, Kristoff secured his 11th victory of the season at Scheldeprijs on April 8.
Kristoff was one of the few cyclists who made it past the dramatic mass crash, just one kilometer from the finish line. With an impressive 150-meter sprint finish, Kristoff won the race ahead of Belgian Edward Theuns and Belarusian Yauheni Hutarovich.
It's only April, but 2015 is looking to be the best season for the Norwegian, who races for the Russian team Katusha. Prior to Three Days of De Panne, Kristoff had already claimed three stage victories and the sprint jersey at the Tour of Qatar, a stage victory at the Tour of Oman, and a sprint victory in stage one of Paris–Nice. The two-time Norwegian National Champion and bronze-medal Olympian is now being compared to Thor Hushovd, widely accepted as Norway's greatest cyclist ever.
"Now I have won two 'monuments' so I'm getting closer, but he delivered for many years," comments Kristoff of these comparisons to Hushovd. "If I keep putting results forward, maybe I will get closer."

How to design a web-page compatiable to Mozilla Firefox?
Discussion in 'Internet & WWW' started by NikhilVerma, Aug 5, 2004.
Can you guys answer my question?
And when i installed mozilla i didn't see any tabbed browsing feature mozilla just opened new windows for every page opened?
And it rendered many pages terribly wrong..
I am deeply dissappointed with mozilla but you guys say that it is great so clarify my doubts!i!i!i!
In Mozilla Firefox to see tabs, go to Tools > Options > Advanced and remove the tick mark next to Hide the tab bar when only one website is open This will show you the tab bar. Alternatively, right click on the link and select open link in new tab.
There is no special way of designing sites for Mozilla or any other browser. They all will display the same HTML pages. But because of some difference in interpretation of HTML, pages may be displayed somewhat differently. You have to check out your pages in different browsers to be sure how they appear in each of them. Also, follow the set standards of HTML and you will not have too much problem.
try to stick to norms defined by W3C on HTML and CSS. This will give ur page a generalised look.
I just desinged the page using frontpage and i don't know any html..
nikhil did u use layers?? it happens some time when u use layers. I would recommed that you use tables properly on your site.
man.. it is problem with tables..
specify correct width and height .. ie as required.. dont' let it to be guessed by browser.. mozilla is strick one and can't do guessing..
and use Ctrl+T to open new window in mozilla..
instead use firefox.. faster than mozilla but is actually mozilla type..
make table structure like this..
By the way what's the difference between HTMl and XTML??
I've edited my site and this time i didn't use any tables.
Does tis site open in your browsers right?
By the way Flash Files section has also been added please check it out..
the links should be provided in site map also..
my WHOLE SITE including the images is only 260KB!!!!
it shall show the size..
or if ur using opera..
Is it because of that..??
why don't you try and use the direct path..
It's opening cool on my firefox buddy.
Just visit my site don't you think we have the same taste . Were you inspired by my site???? I am upgrading my site then we can do the link exchange what do u say??

Q: Pointer address weirdness in upper 4 bytes of a C program In a part of a program I have printed out the same pointer in two different ways.
vpx_codec_iface_t *ptr = vpx_codec_vp9_cx();
printf("ptr1 %p\n", ptr);
printf("ptr2 %p\n", vpx_codec_vp9_cx());

This strangely results in the following output.
ptr1 FFFFFFFFDAF9CED0
ptr2 00000000DAF9CED0

Playing around with the program, I can "fix" the error by adding some code, or adding some newlines.
int x = 0;
vpx_codec_iface_t *ptr = vpx_codec_vp9_cx();
printf("ptr1 %p\n", ptr);
printf("ptr2 %p\n", vpx_codec_vp9_cx());
printf("x=%d\n", x);

This results in the following output.
ptr1 0000000066A7CED0
ptr2 0000000066A7CED0
x=0

What could be causing this behavior? I'm using the Visual Studio 2019 compiler on Windows 10, compiling for x64. The function call vpx_codec_vp9_cx() is implemented in vpxmd.lib which comes from the libvpx project.
Edit: I'm still going through your answers and comments, but I have created a minimal example below. Unfortunately it involves building the whole of the vpx library so it would take me some time to simplify that part.
#include <stdio.h>
#include "vpx/vpx_encoder.h"

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  printf("This is main\n");
  vpx_codec_iface_t *ptr = vpx_codec_vp9_cx();
  int x = 0;
  printf("ptr1 %p\n", ptr);
  printf("ptr2 %p\n", vpx_codec_vp9_cx());
  printf("x=%d\n", x);
  exit(0);
}

A: Do you have warnings turned on in your compile environment?   This looks very much like you are missing a prototype for vpx_code_vp9_cx().   In the first case, assignment to ptr, the expected type coercion will sign extend the (default) int valued vpx_codex_vp9_cs().  In the second case, printf, it will be left intact.
A simpler example can be had with:
print.c:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    void *x = myptr();
    printf("x = %p\n", x);
    printf("myptr() = %p\n", myptr());
    return 0;
}

myptr.c:
int myptr(void) {
    return 0xd0000020;
}

Notice that print.c has no declaration of myptr().  On my system, an unadorned compile: cc print.c myptr.c -o p yields:
print.c:6:12: warning: implicit declaration of function 'myptr' is invalid in C99
      [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
        void *x = myptr();
                  ^
print.c:6:8: warning: incompatible integer to pointer conversion initializing
      'void *' with an expression of type 'int' [-Wint-conversion]
        void *x = myptr();
              ^   ~~~~~~~
print.c:8:27: warning: format specifies type 'void *' but the argument has type
      'int' [-Wformat]
        printf("myptr() = %p\n", myptr());
                          ~~     ^~~~~~~
                          %d
3 warnings generated.

my compiler is obviously long-winded, but the point is that every compiler from the past 30 years should report some sort of diagnostic that you should at least understand before ignoring.

Q: How azure ML give an output for a value which is not used when training the model? I am trying to predict the price of a house. Therefore I added no-of-rooms as one variable to get the prediction. Previous values for that variable was (3,2,1) when I was training the model. Now I am adding no-of-rooms as "6" to get an output(which was not use before to get the predicted value). How will it give the output for a new value?Is it only consider the variables except no-of-rooms ? I used Boosted decision tree regression as the model.

A: The short answer is that when you train your model on a set of features and then use a test set to run predictions, yes it will be able to utilize/understand feature values that the model hasn't previously seen during training. If you have large outliers in your test set that would differ significantly from what the model saw during training, it will affect accuracy, but it will still attempt a prediction.
This is less of a Azure Machine Learning question and more machine learning basics (or really just the basics of how regression works). I would do some research on both "linear regression", and the concept of "over-fitting in machine learning". These are two very basic conceptual topics that will help with your understanding. Understanding regression will help you see why a model can use a value it hasn't previously seen to create a prediction.


This is always a problem.
The main question i get is can you quote before you do the job.
Well basically no. Diagnosis take's time and time needs to be charged as we sell time.
When a fault code brings your engine light on it's the starting point for us.
If we carry out fault tracing and repairs sometime's the light come's on again for a different fault but the same light is used, making customer relations very hard, but we do fault trace wiring and sensor fault's and this is not easy but it's why allot of people use us, faulty or wrongly setup wiring just causes issue's, So when you get a cheap estimate for wiring your new ECU in it's going to cost you more in the long run.

Circular Regarding Online Class Schedule
Dear parent ,
After a relaxed summer break, I am sure, children are now ready to get back to studies.
Let me thank all of you for your support and cooperation especially in the past few months.
Technology in teaching and learning was new to most of us, but, efforts at both ends yielded
positive results. We were so eagerly looking forward to having our students back in school, but,
the current situation does not permit to do so.
Safety of students and staff cannot be compromised .The only option left is to continue with online classes.
