Gosaikunda festival trekking as the abode of Hindu deities Lord Shiva and Goddess Gauri. The Hindu scriptures Bhagavata Purana and Vishnu Purana, and the Hindu epics Ramayana and Mahabharata refer to Samudra manthan, which is directly related to the origin of Gosaikunda.
Its holy waters are considered of particular significance during Gangadashahara and the sacred thread festival Janai Purnima when thousands of pilgrims from Nepal and India visit the area.
Gosaikunda is believed to have formed from the digging of the land by the Trishul (holy Trident) of lord Shiva.

I believe that avoiding ready-made foods may be the first step for you to lose weight. They could taste beneficial, but highly processed foods have very little vitamins and minerals, making you consume more in order to have enough energy to get with the day. For anyone who is constantly having these foods, switching to grain and other complex carbohydrates will make you to have more strength while consuming less. Interesting blog post.
I absolutely love your blog and find a lot of your post's to be exactly what I'm looking for. Would you offer guest writers to write content to suit your needs? I wouldn't mind creating a post or elaborating on many of the subjects you write with regards to here. Again, awesome weblog!

Thanks for your post on this website. From my very own experience, there are occassions when softening up a photograph could provide the professional photographer with a little bit of an inspired flare. Sometimes however, the soft clouds isn't exactly what you had at heart and can sometimes spoil an otherwise good picture, especially if you consider enlarging the item.

"Anniversary, which we forgot entirely," Olive Byrne wrote in her secret diary in 1936. (The diary remains in family hands.) During the years when she lived with Marston and Holloway, she wore, instead of a wedding ring, a pair of bracelets. Wonder Woman wears those same cuffs. Byrne died in 1990, at the age of 86. She and Holloway had been living together in an apartment in Tampa. While Byrne was in the hospital, dying, Holloway fell and broke her hip; she was admitted to the same hospital. They were in separate rooms. They'd lived together for 64 years. When Holloway, in her hospital bed, was told that Byrne had died, she sang a poem by Tennyson: "Sunset and the evening star, / And one clear call for me! / And may there be no moaning of the bar, / When I put out to sea." No newspaper ran an obituary.
"Gas was intended to win the war. On that much Wonder Woman is absolutely right." said David Hambling in Popular Mechanics.[223] Rachel Becker of The Verge stated that despite the scientific liberties of using a "hydrogen-based" chemical weapon as a plot device, the film succeeds in evoking real and horrifying history. "First off, mustard gas is such a horrible, terrifying weapon, it doesn't need to be made more potent. But if you were a chemist bent on raining destruction on the Allied forces, you wouldn't do it by replacing the sulfur atom in mustard gas with a hydrogen atom. You'd know that sulfur is the linchpin holding together this poisonous molecule."[224]
The Pre-Crisis version of the invisible plane was a necessity because before Crisis on Infinite Earths rewrote Wonder Woman's history – along with the histories of many other heroes – Wonder Woman could not fly. She grew increasingly powerful during and after the Silver Age of Comic Books, acquiring the power to ride wind currents and imitate flight over short distances. This had limitations, however; for example, if there was no wind and the air was completely still she would be trapped on the ground or if dropped from a distance that she would helplessly fall out of control to the ground. Though this meant that she would rely on the invisible plane less frequently, she always had need of it.[citation needed]
Thus although by the modern depiction her accomplishments at the time seem ordinary, in that era they were more so. Diana Prince was originally an army nurse, but quickly attained the rank of lieutenant in Army Intelligence. This was partially a creative convenience so that she could be close to both Steve Trevor and received information which she needed to pursue her superheroics. In the real world though, this role in Army intelligence, even as the secretary to General Darnell, was still a rare position for a woman to hold in society. At this time as well, the character had her only real sidekicks in her history in the form of Etta Candy and the Holliday Girls. These characters gave the Wonder Woman a degree more of levity while also allowing the writers to focus on some issues which were more related to women. When Marston left the character, the strong driving force of the character to act as a strong moral guide and role model for female readers left as well and the character became more sensitive to the forces driving the industry as whole. Thus Wonder Woman changed somewhat to a more stereotypical woman. Her main interest was not always fighting crime, but for a time it became all in the interest of keeping Steve Trevor happy and interested in her for marriage. Also the backup stories featuring the Wonder Women of History were slowly phased out and replaced with features on marriage customs from around the world and trivial facts on random household objects.
Earning a total of $103.3 million on its opening weekend, the film recorded a number of records: the biggest domestic opening of all time for a female director (surpassing previous record holder Fifty Shades of Grey), the biggest DC Comics release without Batman or Superman (ahead of Constantine), the sixth-biggest non-sequel comic book superhero debut ever, as well as the sixth-biggest June debut weekend.[184] Its three-day opening alone made it the highest-grossing woman-led comic book superhero film ever (surpassing Ghost in the Shell).[185] It was also the 16th superhero film to cross $100 million in its domestic box office launch.[186] About 9% ($9 million) of the opening weekend came from IMAX screenings from 343 theaters.[187] In its second week the film grossed $58.5 million, again topping the box office. It marked a 43.3% drop for its second weekend at the box office, better than the average 50–60% decline superhero films tend to see, and was a better second weekend than Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice ($51.3 million) and Suicide Squad ($43.5 million).[188] In its third weekend it grossed $40.8 million, finishing second behind newcomer Cars 3 ($53.5 million). It was the second-best third weekend ever for Warner Bros. and was nearly double what Batman v Superman ($23.3 million), Suicide Squad ($20.9 million) and Man of Steel ($20.7 million) made in their third weekends. It earned $24.9 million and $15.7 million in its fourth and fifth weekends, respectively, dropping just 39% and 36% despite facing rough competition from opening films Transformers: The Last Knight and Despicable Me 3.[189] It eventually became the highest-grossing film directed by a woman, surpassing the previous records of Jennifer Yuh Nelson's Kung Fu Panda 2 and Phyllida Lloyd's Mamma Mia!.[9] By August 8, the film had garnered $400 million in ticket sales, becoming the second female-fueled film (after Disney's Beauty and the Beast), Warner Bros.' third-biggest movie (after Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises), holding the record of the highest-earning superhero origin film, replacing the previous record held by Spider-Man (2002). It also becoming the highest-earning film with a female director in terms of domestic earnings—surpassing Frozen (2013).[190][191][192]
Gal was not aware of screen-testing the role of Diana Prince/Wonder Woman for the production of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" prior to December 4, 2013. She reportedly thought it was Selina Kyle/Catwoman. Selina Kyle/Catwoman was previously performed by Michelle Pfeiffer in "Batman Returns" and Anne Hathaway in "The Dark Knight Rises". See more »
When Marston died in 1947 Robert Kanigher took over and Diana became less of a feminist character but during this time, her abilities expanded as she wore earrings that provided her with the air she needed when she was in outer space and she had an invisible plane. Extra additions included a tiara which could cut through almost anything and acted as a boomerang and her bracelets now had two way radios.
With a new decade arriving, DC president Jenette Kahn ordered a revamp in Wonder Woman's appearance. Artist Milton Glaser, who also designed the "bullet" logo adopted by DC in 1977, created a stylized "WW" emblem that evoked and replaced the eagle in her bodice and debuted in 1982.[39] The emblem in turn was incorporated by studio letterer Todd Klein onto the monthly title's logo, which lasted for a year and a half before being replaced by a version from Glaser's studio.[40] With sales of the title continuing to decline in 1985 (despite an unpublished revamp that was solicited), the series was canceled and ended in issue #329 (February 1986) written by Gerry Conway, depicting Steve Trevor's marriage to Wonder Woman.
"Noted Psychologist Revealed as Author of Best-Selling 'Wonder Woman,'" read the astonishing headline. In the summer of 1942, a press release from the New York offices of All-American Comics turned up at newspapers, magazines and radio stations all over the United States. The identity of Wonder Woman's creator had been "at first kept secret," it said, but the time had come to make a shocking announcement: "the author of 'Wonder Woman' is Dr. William Moulton Marston, internationally famous psychologist." The truth about Wonder Woman had come out at last.
Until DC's New 52 relaunch, there were a few other aspects of the origin story that remained consistent. Her mother, Hippolyta, created her out of clay, and the Greek gods bestowed her with life. She grew up among the Amazons who taught her the skills of a warrior as well as the lessons of peace and love. When Steve Trevor, an American pilot, crash landed on Paradise Island, the Amazons had a contest to determine who should receive the honor and responsibility to take him back to Man's World and serve as the champion emissary of all the Amazons represent.
One of the events that led to Infinite Crisis was of Wonder Woman killing the villain Maxwell Lord in Wonder Woman (vol. 2) #219.[114] Maxwell Lord was mind-controlling Superman, who as a result was near to killing Batman. Wonder Woman tried to stop Superman, Lord (who was unable to mind control her) made Superman see her as his enemy Doomsday trying to kill Lois Lane. Superman then attacked Wonder Woman, and a vicious battle ensued. Buying herself time by slicing Superman's throat with her tiara, Wonder Woman caught Lord in her Lasso of Truth and demanded to know how to stop his control over Superman. As the lasso forced the wearer to speak only the truth, Lord told her that the only way to stop him was to kill him. Left with no choice, Wonder Woman snapped Lord's neck and ended his control over Superman.[114] Unknown to her, the entire scene was broadcast live around every channel in the world by Brother Eye. The viewers were not aware of the entire situation, and saw only Wonder Woman murdering a Justice League associate. Wonder Woman's actions put her at odds with Batman and Superman, as they saw Wonder Woman as a cold-blooded killer, despite the fact that she saved their lives.[115]
I thought George's one "mistake" in rebooting Wonder Woman was making her only 25 years old when she left Paradise Island. I preferred the idea of a Diana who was thousands of years old (as, if I recall correctly, she was in the TV series). From that angle, I would have liked to have seen Diana having been Wonder Woman in WW2, and be returning to our world in the reboot. Not having that option, I took the next best course, and had Hippolyta fill that role.[81]
In the wake of the 1954 hearings, DC Comics removed Bender from its editorial advisory board, and the Comics Magazine Association of America adopted a new code. Under its terms, comic books could contain nothing cruel: "All scenes of horror, excessive bloodshed, gory or gruesome crimes, depravity, lust, sadism, masochism shall not be permitted." There could be nothing kinky: "Illicit sex relations are neither to be hinted at nor portrayed. Violent love scenes as well as sexual abnormalities are unacceptable." And there could be nothing unconventional: "The treatment of love-romance stories shall emphasize the value of the home and the sanctity of marriage."
The success of the superhero television series Supergirl informed the marketing and promotion strategy used for Wonder Woman.[155] According to Time Warner chief marketing officer Kristen O'Hara, they wanted to approach the Wonder Woman marketing campaign in a light manner, similar to how they did with Supergirl. O'Hara elaborated that the modest campaign route they took for Supergirl aided in establishing a large central fanbase among women well in advance of the series, which reportedly generated 5 million female superhero fans in one week.[155] They were then able to model over time, and grow that audience leading up to the 15-months-later release of Wonder Woman.[155] Though neither the film nor the series are aimed exclusively at women, the latter's campaign gave them their first opportunity to begin collecting data about female superhero fans.[155] In May 2017, a promo for Wonder Woman was released during the season finale of Supergirl, featuring a remix of the song "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" and Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) wearing Wonder Woman's boots.[156] The promo included an appearance by Lynda Carter, star of the 1970s Wonder Woman, who plays the American president on Supergirl.[156]
Following Pérez, William Messner-Loebs took over as writer and Mike Deodato became the artist for the title. Messner-Loebs introduced Diana's Daxamite friend Julia in Wonder Woman vol. 2 #68 during the six-issue space arc.[38][39] Messner-Loebs's most memorable contribution to the title was the introduction of the red-headed Amazon Artemis, who took over the mantle of Wonder Woman for a short time. He also included a subplot during his run in an attempt to further humanize Diana by having her work for a fictional fast food chain called "Taco Whiz".[9]
Born to Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, Diana lived a serene and joyful life until the intervention of Steve Trevor upon the island of Themyscira.[2] A tournament was held among the Amazons to determine the representative that would return to Man's World along with Trevor. Diana defeated the other Amazons but was tasked with the final challenge, deflecting a bullet fired from a gun by her mother. After winning the contest Diana was awarded a suit of armor and the Lasso of Truth and left for the United States,[3] though upon her arrival she was arrested and detained in a cell. Falling into despair, Diana was visited by the Gods of Olympus in their animal forms: a peacock, deer, owl, mouse, eagle, dove and tortoise, who granted her the gifts of strength, speed, endurance, empathy and flight.[4]
Fans of modern day comic book characters would have some difficulty relating to characters from the early golden age, and Wonder Woman is no exception. In her first appearance in the comics, she has obviously fulfilled the role of an icon for readers, but so too did her secret identity, Diana Prince. The character was created in a time when different cultural and societal norms existed in North America.
Hermaphroditus	Wonder Woman #69 (April 24, 2019)	Hermaphroditus is the God of Androgyny, Sexuality, Unions, Fertility and Marriage who is based on the god of the same name. In the DC Universe, Hermaphroditus is a transgender deity with angelic wings and goes by the name "Atlantiades". He revealed that he left Mount Olympus in hopes to get away from his mother Aphrodite and decided to take refuge on earth in a neighborhood called Summergrove in Connecticut. He used his powers to influence the Summergrove residents to submit to their inner desires.
An iron-fisted general of the German Army during World War I.[29] Huston described Ludendorff as a "pragmatist, realist, patriotic, fighting for his country", further explaining, "he lost his son on the German front lines and was just quite tortured, diabolical, stubborn and believes that what he's doing is for the betterment of mankind."[30] On his character, Huston said, "Ludendorff is a believer that war is a natural habitat for humans." Huston stated the film as an anti-war film and "somebody like Ludendorff would probably think that the idea that love conquers all is quite a naive concept. But finally it's true and sometimes the best way to examine mankind is from another perspective." On the genre of the film, Huston said, "It's Greek mythology. It's the origin of story and sometimes we need demigods to look at us to understand what our weaknesses are. It serves the mythological world."[31]
Invisible Plane: Wonder Woman possesses an airplane capable of rendering itself completely invisible to the human eye. Like her bracelets, Diana's invisible plane is forged with Eighth Metal, making it almost indestructible.[115] The Invisible Plane was originally the aircraft Steve Trevor crashed onto Themyscira; it was repaired by the Amazons and upgraded with their technology.[116][117]
Despite their displeasure at Diana's capture, Hephaestus was able to bring Lennox and Eros to Hades with him as guests to the wedding, without the aid of Hermes' staff. As the wedding drew nearer, Hades grew annoyed that few of his relatives had agreed to come. Diana's friends were the only attendees, aside from Strife, who merely wanted to cause her namesake emotion. Before the wedding ceremony took place, Hades insisted that Diana should prove her love by wearing his ring. The ring was a noose fashioned with the Lasso of Truth, and if Diana did not truly love him, he would kill her.[22]
Artemis of Bana-Mighdall briefly served as Wonder Woman during Hippolyta's trials for a new Wonder Woman. Orana, a character similar to Artemis, defeated Diana in a new contest and became Wonder Woman in pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths continuity. Orana was killed during her first mission. Others who have donned the Wonder Woman persona include Nubia, Cassandra Sandsmark, and Donna Troy.
Wonder Woman's appearance in the early golden age of comics made her the first prominent female superheroine. The psychologist William Moulton Marston created Wonder Woman somewhat as a counter reaction to the presence of prominent male superheroes (at this time Superman, Batman and Captain America), as well as a counterbalance to the "blood curdling masculinity" that was dominant at the time, with the hopes that the character could serve as an inspiration for young children (though in certain ways it was geared more towards female readers.) Marston had been partially motivated to create this character because of the accomplishments of his own wife, who was also an accomplished academic at a time when it was difficult for women to fulfill this role. As a result, the first Wonder Woman series contained many complementary articles and features which sought to highlight the inner power of women. There were articles for instance on the different career paths that women could pursue (according to the standards of the 1940s) as well as a series of stories on famous and accomplished women, called the Wonder Women of History. Marston introduced the character in All-Star Comics #8 in 1941. She became the lead character in Sensation Comics in 1941, and got her first solo book in 1942.
Wonder Woman and the other heroes were finally released from the Firestorm Matrix when Batman used the Lasso of Truth on Firestorm. Superman was still infected with the Kryptonite shard inside his nervous system, but Lex Luthor was able to extract it, saving Superman's life. Luthor also assembled a group of villains that defeated the Crime Syndicate. Later, at the Batcave, Wonder Woman and the Justice League talked about the enemy that destroyed the Crime Syndicate's world and came to the conclusion that Darkseid would return.[74]

^ Mozzocco, J. Caleb. "The Many Loves of Wonder Woman: A Brief History Of The Amazing Amazon's Love Life". ComicsAlliance. Archived from the original on August 30, 2012. Retrieved August 28, 2012. When the next volume of Wonder Woman would start, Trevor was sidelined as Diana's love interest. He still appeared in the series, but as an older man, one who would ultimately marry the post-Crisis version of Wondy's Golden Age sidekick, Etta Candy.
After defeating Giganta in battle, Wonder Woman was approached by a lawyer who informed her that she had inherited the estate of Hercules, who had been killed.[89] Shortly thereafter, she was told by A.R.G.U.S. that Hercules' body came from an area containing traces of energy unique to Apokolips. Diana visited Hercules' home and found a letter addressed to her, informing her of the location of her twin brother, Jason. She found him in Greece,[90] and the two seemingly began to bond, only for Jason to turn against Diana after the arrival of Grail, who he had secretly allied himself with.[91] Grail had begun killing children of the earthly gods in order to use their divine power to restore her father Darkseid to adulthood, as he had been turned into a baby at the end of the Darkseid War. Jason allied himself with her in order to exact revenge on Wonder Woman, as he resented her for not seeking him out after she learned of his existence some time ago and was envious of her. However, as Darkseid was about to drain Diana's life force, Jason regretted his actions and joined Wonder Woman in battle against Grail and Darkseid. Then, Hercules' lawyer revealed his true identity as the King of the Gods himself, Zeus.[92] Zeus fought Darkseid while Wonder Woman took on his daughter, Grail. Ultimately, Zeus was defeated and his life force was drained by Darkseid, restoring the Apokoliptian to his full adult form. The Justice League arrived, forcing Darkseid and Grail to retreat through a Boom Tube. In the aftermath of the battle, Diana forgave her brother for his deceit.[93]
Lasso of Truth: The Lasso, also referred to as the Golden Perfect, is a sacred relic of the Amazons and was given to them by the Gods of Olympus. It was bestowed to Wonder Woman when she embarked to Man's World. The Lasso's most known power is to force anyone ensnared by it to speak only the truth. It also possesses a number of other magical abilities. The Lasso is capable of tethering the hearts and minds of the individuals holding it, creating a telepathic link between them, as well as allowing for language translation.[113] It can also be used to bind and ensnare the souls of beings, including even gods, within it.[8][114] Diana can use the Perfect to locate individuals who share an emotional connection to her. It can also be used to force a biophysical reset of those who have been corrupted by some external influence, such as poisons and toxins or mind control, who are bound by it.[5][85] Diana is highly proficient at using the Lasso of Truth as both a tool and a weapon, and is capable of easily binding people and objects using it.
On October 21, 2016, the United Nations controversially named Wonder Woman a UN Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls in a ceremony attended by Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information Cristina Gallach and by actors Lynda Carter and Gal Gadot.[231][232] The character was dropped from the role two months later after a petition against the appointment stated Wonder Woman was "not culturally...sensitive" and it was "alarming that the United Nations would consider using a character with an overtly sexualized image".[233]
In May 2017, early tracking had Wonder Woman opening with $65–75 million, and possibly as high as $105 million.[177][178][179][180][174] The film opened Friday, June 2, 2017, across 4,165 theaters and made $38.7 million on its opening day, including $3.7 million in IMAX. It was the biggest single-day gross for a woman-directed film, ahead of the $35.9 million opening Friday of Catherine Hardwicke's Twilight in 2008 and the biggest opening day for a woman-led comic book superhero film, ahead of Ghost in the Shell ($7 million).[181] This included $11 million it made from Thursday previews, also the best start for a film directed by a woman, surpassing Fifty Shades of Grey's $8.6 million which was directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, and the third-biggest of the year, behind Beauty and the Beast and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Of that, $1.5 million came from IMAX screenings.[182][183]


I pay close attention to composition, designing both foreground and background shapes in relation to the edges of the photo paper. I position the camera and crop so that shapes play against one another.
I often like viewing from unusual angles to achieve disconcerting spatial relationships and a sense of movement. In fact, I try to capture subjects in transitional moments to enhance the feeling of movement and expectation. Color is very exciting to me. Shooting in color is my first impulse. I also enjoy using grayscale imagery. Each visual world has its own integrity.
I aim to produce mood or drama, something evocative so that the viewer can find his or her own interpretations. I sometimes alter the original photo in unusual ways to jar expectation. In portraits, I try to capture an emotional state or moment which may allow the viewer a connection with the subject and perhaps empathy or identification.
All categories are of interest to me. I will photograph a subject as a vehicle for an idea I am exploring. I will also photograph whatever captures my imagination at the moment.

Thermistors offer a distinct advantage over other temperature sensors - high sensitivity! But thermistors come with a price. The resistance versus temperature curve is highly non-linear. However, a simple technique can straighten out the bow in the curve, at least over a reasonable temperature range. Although this technique will reduce the sensitivity of the sensor, the benefit of a linear response is typically worth the cost.
Suppose you've been asked to design a linearized thermistor circuit, with a temperature range centered around +25 deg C. One technique is easy - place a resistor in parallel with the NTC thermistor. But first, to get a feel for the R vs. T curve, check out the table below.
This represents a typical thermistor defined by a resistance of R = 10k Ω at 25 ° C having a material constant Beta = 3450.
HANDS-ON DESIGN Run a simulation of THERM_CKT1.CIR. Current source IS drives the parallel combination of thermistor XTH1 and resistor RP. Initially, we set RP = 1000 kΩ so it has little effect on the thermistor. Plot V(1) to see the voltage across XTH1. VTEMP generates a voltage that really represents the temperature sweeping from -15 to +65 ° C. ( To see the temperature, plot V(10) in another window.) Although a meager 0.1 mA is supplied by IS, a hefty voltage is produced by the thermistor. But, as you can see - the curve isn't pretty.
where RT1, RT2 and RT2 are the thermistor's resistance at the low, middle and high temperature points of your measurement range, T1, T2 and T3.
But what if there's no budget for a current source on your circuit. And to boot, voltage sources are already available on the circuit board. How can we make use of this voltage source? Recall that a wise man named Thevenin found that a current source in parallel with a resistor is a close cousin of a voltage source in series with a resistor. To make use of this knowledge, replace IS and RP with VS and RS.
HANDS-ON DESIGN Run a simulation of THERM_CKT1.CIR. Voltage source VS and series resistor RS form a voltage divider with thermistor XTH2. Initially, RP = 1000k. Plot V(3) to see the voltage divider output. Run a few simulations to find out which value, RS = 100k, 10k or 1k Ω, pulls the curve the straightest. You can use the same formula above to calculate an optimal value of RS.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could turn the negative temperature coefficient into a positive one? The voltage source and series resistor makes it easy. Just swap the locations of RS and XTH2!
How does this change the slope of the output signal? Remember, as the temperature goes up, the thermistor's resistance gets smaller. And because it's now in the upper leg of the divider, the output voltage increases.
Run a simulation of THERM_CKT1.CIR and plot V(3). Has the output curve been transformed into a positive temperature coefficient?

Student debate to focus on women's leadership issues
by Camie Williams
The UGA Women's Leadership Initiative will host a student debate on converting popular demands for greater gender equity into effective policies Nov. 12 at 7 p.m. in the Chapel.
The debate, which is free and open to the public, is titled "Hollywood to D.C.: Moving Feminist Rhetoric from Conversation to Legislation." It will feature students from the Demosthenian Literary Society, the Phi Kappa Literary Society, the Roosevelt Institute and the Women's Studies Student Organization. Stefanie Lindquist, dean of the School of Public and International Affairs, will serve as moderator, and a reception will follow in Demosthenian Hall.
"Demosthenian was excited to get the opportunity to help plan this event," said Katlyn Firkus, a fourth-year student majoring in psychology and marketing. "We believe in the power of rhetoric to effect change, and this topic represents change that needs to happen."
Participants include Cali Callaway of the Roosevelt Institute, Justin Ebert of the Demosthenian Literary Society, Halle Hammond of the Phi Kappa Literary Society and Juhi Varshney of the Women's Studies Student Organization.
Organizers urge students and other attendees to share their thoughts about the debate on social media using #Hllywd2DC.
"The University of Georgia is a hub for the exchange of ideas, and I encourage members of the campus community to hear our students engage in constructive dialogue about one of society's most pressing issues," said Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Pamela Whitten.

All Harper Lee wanted was to be 'the Jane Austen of South Alabama' — here's how she accomplished that and so much more
Rachel Gillett
Pulitzer Prize winning author Harper Lee died in her hometown of Monroeville, Alabama, at the age of 89 Friday.
In 1964, just four years after publishing " To Kill A Mockingbird," Harper Lee, who died Friday at the age of 89, granted radio host Roy Newquist a rare and personal interview.
"Well, my objectives are very limited. I want to do the best I can with the talent God gave me," she told Newquist.
"I would like, however, to do one thing, and I've never spoken much about it because it's such a personal thing," she continued. "I would like to leave some record of the kind of life that existed in a very small world. I hope ... to chronicle something that seems to be very quickly going down the drain. This is small-town middle-class southern life..."
Lee went on to describe the South as thousands of tiny towns full of rich social pattern. "I would simply like to put down all I know about this because I believe that there is something universal in this little world, something decent to be said for it, and something to lament in its passing," she said. "In other words all I want to be is the Jane Austen of South Alabama."
With " To Kill A Mockingbird," Lee accomplished her goal.
In it's first week, it sold 1.1 million copies, and in its lifetime sold more than 40 million copies and has been translated into more than 40 languages. Just a year after publishing, " To Kill A Mockingbird," won a Pulitzer prize, and a year later earned Gregory Peck "Best Actor" award at the 1962 Academy Awards for the role as Atticus Finch in the film adaptation.
The world had come to intimately know some of the people and behaviors of small-town southern life, and what's more, they learned valuable lessons about humanity along the way. Here's how Lee became more than "the Jane Austen of South Alabama."
Lee grew up in Monroeville, a small town in Alabama.
Born in 1926, Lee believed growing up in the Deep South during the Great Depression had a huge influence on her writing style.
"I think we are a region of natural storytellers, just from tribal instinct," Lee told Newquist. "We did not have the pleasure of the theater, the dance, of motion pictures when they came along. We simply entertained each other by talking."
Lee said that her childhood was one without much money, toys, or movie-going — she and her friends had to entertain themselves by living in their imaginations most of the time.
"I think that kind of life naturally produces more writers than, say, an environment like 82nd Street in New York," Lee said. "In small town life and in rural life you know your neighbors. Not only do you know everything about your neighbors, but you know everything about them from the time they came to the country."
She didn't believe in studying to become a writer.
Lee went on to study law in college, but dropped out of Law School at the University of Alabama six months before completing her studies to become a writer in New York.
"Another way they fool themselves is when they study to be writers," Lee said of aspiring creative writers. "They are training themselves, in colleges, to be writers. Well, my dear young people, writing is something you'll never learn in any university or at any school. It's something that is within you, and if it isn't there, nothing can put it there."
If it weren't for a generous gift, she may never have had the time to write 'To Kill a Mockingbird.'
After moving to New York in 1949, Lee worked as a ticket agent for British Overseas Airways Corporation while pursuing her writing career.
In 1956, after lamenting that she was having trouble balancing her job and finding time to write to her friends Michael and Joy Brown, they gave Lee an entire year's salary so she could take time to write whatever she wanted as a Christmas present.
She used this time to work on a manuscript that eventually became "To Kill a Mockingbird."
Lee honed her ability to create character sketches as Truman Capote's research assistant.

After spending some time in Kansas helping childhood friend Capote research "In Cold Blood," Lee returned to New York to finish up her first novel, which she published in 1960.
She never expected so many people to love her book.

"No present-day reviewer can forget the summer storm that came, in 1960, with the release of this novel," Newquist said of Lee's book. "High praise was almost unanimous, both for the excellence of the book itself and for the welcome draught of fresh air that seemed to come with it."
"All the magic and truth that might seem deceptive or exaggerated in a factual account of a small town unfold beautifully in a new first novel called "To Kill a Mockingbird," read The New York Times review in 1960.
"Miss Lee's original characters are people to cherish in this winning first novel by a fresh writer with something significant to say, South and North," said the Times.
"It was like being hit over the head and knocked cold," Lee said of the critical acclaim.
Nor was she motivated by acclaim.

Lee didn't believe in writing for others — she wrote only for herself. "I don't believe this business of 'No, I don't write for myself, I write for the public.' That's nonsense. Any writer worth his salt writes to please himself," she said.
But that didn't stop generation after generation deriving valuable lessons from prose like, "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view" and "The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience."
In the end, her work continues to touch the world in powerful ways.

As President George W. Bush said while awarding Lee the Medal of Freedom, the highest civil honor that a President can bestow, "This daughter of Monroeville, Alabama, had something to say about honor, and tolerance, and, most of all, love — and it still resonates."
"To Kill a Mockingbird" has influenced the character of our country for the better. It's been a gift to the entire world," he said. "As a model of good writing and humane sensibility, this book will be read and studied forever," he said.

The Tweet That Sparked a Love Affair Between Coke Music and High Dive Heart
By: Meagan Priselac | Jun 6, 2016
It all started with a tweet. This tweet to be exact.
Here's a special song to warm you up on a chilly day from @HighDiveHeart - 'Vintage' is out @Spotify! #FirstTastehttps://t.co/1L5K7jxyy1
— Coca-Cola Music (@CokeMusic) November 11, 2015
A tweet that ignited an ever-lasting love affair between Coca-Cola Music and independent husband and wife music duo, High Dive Heart.
A tweet that led to many more tweets, a music video, fan Periscopes, a Spotify playlist and yes, that on-going love affair between Coca-Cola Music and the two love birds that make up High Dive Heart, Jason Reeves and Nelly Joy. So back to the infamous 140 character limit of social love…
Once Upon a Tweet…
On a cold November day, @CokeMusic Manager Yuri Pereira decided to warm up the Twittersphere with a special song called "Vintage" by the emerging music group High Dive Heart.
"When I first listened to the song, I thought it was actually perfect for winter because it makes you want to be around other people. It warms you up," explains Pereira.
So he tweeted their video with hopes of bringing people together on a chilly (almost) winter day. The Coke Music team then sent "Share a Coke" bottles with "Vintage" and "High Dive Heart" printed on them, and added the song to Coca-Cola's Spotify playlist.
What happened next? Watch for yourself...
High Dive Heart returned the love with a Coca-Cola remake of their hit EP, "Vintage".
The idea originated from Joy's father, who suggested the two artists show thanks for Coca-Cola's support. Joy and Reeves, who write their lyrics together, sing and play guitar, took his advice, and took it to the next level.
That Classic 'Pop Top' Sound
As the title suggests, the original song and music video features acoustics produced by vintage objects. Sounds like the typing of a typewriter and the click of an old-school camera. That's where Patrick Tracy, the "visual member" of the band who filmed the "Vintage" music video, saw a unique opportunity to play up the Coke connection.
"Initially, we were trying to find a cool way to incorporate Coca-Cola product in the video. It felt really natural and like a no-brainer to start with the sounds of the Coke bottle," says Tracy.
So they did. The duo experimented with producing percussion out of Coke cans and bottles.
"This was my favorite part," admits Reeves. "The combination between popping the top of a Coke bottle and cracking open a can… they're two of the most iconic and vintage sounds in the world. You know what comes after it… refreshment."
One week and several Coke bottles popped later, High Dive Heart took to Twitter to say thank-you with their new video.
Here's our "thank you" to @CokeMusic @CocaCola for spreading the word about "Vintage"! #ShareACoke #CokeMusic ❤💗💙https://t.co/K69tAWK2cp
— High Dive Heart (@HighDiveHeart) November 19, 2015
Back at Coca-Cola headquarters in Atlanta, Pereira opened his laptop, pulled up the @CokeMusic Twitter, and then boom… "Wait, what?!" He thought out loud. "This is too good."
For the next however many minutes (he lost count) Pereira watched the "Vintage" Coca-Cola remake video over and over and yes, over again.
"It was one of the coolest things I have ever seen related to Coke. We didn't ask them to do it… it was so unexpected. I've never seen an artist come back to us with a music video or any influencer as passionate about our brand," says Pereira, who immediately shared it with the head of global music at Coca-Cola, Joe Belliotti.
Okay, only kidding, of course that's not the end. In fact, it was just the beginning of a relationship Coke Music now models their music artist strategy around.
Diving In Heart First
Ever since the first shout-out from @CokeMusic and the "thank-you" music video that has garnered almost 20,000 YouTube views, High Dive Heart has worked with Coke Music on several projects, including a Spotify playlist and live Periscope series.
High Dive Heart exclusively manages their playlist on Coca-Cola's Spotify channel, updating the playlist each week. The title? Vintage, of course. The playlist contains 44 songs (and growing) and features a mix of fresh new music and vintage classics that take listeners "on a trip through time aboard a sonic subway."
In addition to curating Spotify jams, High Dive Heart shows off their live music talent on Coke Music's Periscope channel. Joy and Reeves starred in Coke Music's first-ever Periscope. Since the launch, the duo welcomes Coke Music Periscope fans to watch their live shows and even join them live at home where the couple performs new songs, talks about what inspires their music, and takes questions from viewers.
Less than 2 HOURS! What songs should we sing tonight on our @CokeMusic @periscopeco show!?
7PM CST #SundayNL pic.twitter.com/gAO4XIxhom
— High Dive Heart (@HighDiveHeart) April 18, 2016
"My dream is to connect artists and fans to give a one-one relationship in real-time," says Pereira. "Most people don't have access to this kind of stuff. They can read about artists and music, but they can't ask someone questions directly. Coke Music is changing that through live streaming and relationships like this," he adds.
The Next Song and Dance
What started as a tweet is now a mutually beneficial opportunity for both Coke Music and High Dive Heart. For Coca-Cola, the relationship is a prime example of how the company can connect fans to music they love in an authentic way. For High Dive Heart, Joy thanks Coke Music for helping them reach their main goal.
"Ultimately, we want to spread love and change lives, but in order to do that, we have to get this music out to the masses. Coca-Cola is helping us do that," says Joy.
Reeves echoes his wife's sentiments, saying it's an artist's responsibility to not only say something important and uplifting but to also put those words into action.
"Success is about how many people you can inspire to do something creative and to do something beautiful for our planet and humanity. The main thing we'll be able to do if we really succeed are things that are not necessarily musically related. We will use our music as an avenue to do things that are positive for the world," he concludes.

More About High Dive Heart
The musical union of multi-platinum songwriter and solo artist Jason Reeves and singer-songwriter Nelly Joy, all began while working together on Jason's 2011 solo album The Lovesick—which independently reached #5 on iTunes Pop Albums chart—Nelly had no idea she served as the record's muse until one fateful night when he spilled the beans.
The two wed in 2012 and joined together musically in 2013 to create High Dive Heart. Coupling folk storytelling, a sharp sense of humor, pop palatability, danceable sass, and a subtle swaggering bounce, they recorded their debut EP Sonic Graffiti. In 2015 they released their first single, "Vintage". Fans worldwide fell in love with the song. "Vintage" racked up 2 million-plus streams on Spotify in less than six months and landed at #1 on the platform's Global Viral Chart. The track's music video reached 500K YouTube views and continues to climb. The duo is now on a multi-city radio tour to promote their single and continues to work with Coca-Cola Music.

After upsetting top-seeded Michigan in the quarterfinals, the Michigan State softball team saw its season come to an end in the Big Ten tournament semifinals, falling to No. 4 seed Northwestern, 11-0, in five innings Saturday in Madison, Wisconsin.
Northwestern pitcher Morgan Newport threw a complete-game no-hitter, striking out four batters and walking one.
The Spartans only had two baserunners reach base in the contest. Caitie Ladd drew a first-inning walk and Katie Quinlan reached on an error in the second.
Kristina Zalewski took the loss, allowing five runs (four earned) in 1 1/3 innings. Bridgette Rainey allowed five runs on four hits in 1/3 of an inning before giving way to McKenna Gregory, who gave up one run in 3 1/3 innings.
The trio combined for three strikeouts as the Spartans finish the season with a 26-26 record.
In the biggest win over its in-state rival in more than a decade, Michigan State advanced to the semifinals with a 7-0 victory over No. 16 Michigan late Friday night.
The 8-seeded Spartans defeated the top-seeded Wolverines after a pair of regular-season losses - a 1-0 loss in Ann Arbor on April 11 and an 8-0 defeat at Secchia Stadium on May 2. MSU eliminated the Wolverines in the Big Ten quarterfinals for the second straight season, winning 4-3 last year.
Zalewski tossed a three-hit shutout for her 15th complete game of the season.
"This was just a solid effort from the first pitch to the last," said Michigan State coach Jacquie Joseph. "I loved our approach, and I thought that Kristina Zalewski showed that she can be one of the best pitchers in the country. I've said that I liked the way we were playing ball over the last few weeks. Maybe its the seniors with a sense of urgency, but they've really set a nice standard and everyone is just dialed in right now. We'll get our rest and get ready to play tomorrow."
The game was delayed nearly six hours by inclement weather, starting after midnight EST. With a game-time temperature of 45 degrees and a steady shower throughout, Zalewski was masterful from the first pitch. She struck out 10 batters and walked four.
Lea Foerster went 3-for-5 with a pair of RBI while Kaitlyn Eveland was 2-for-2 with a pair of walks.
The victory was the largest for MSU over Michigan since an identical 7-0 victory on May 5, 2007.
The Spartans scored twice in the second inning and five in the fifth inning to build a 7-0 lead, chasing Big Ten Freshman of the Year Meghan Beaubien from the game. The Spartans scored those five fifth-inning runs on just two base hits, as Beaubien walked five and struck out five in addition to surrendering six base hits and allowing seven runs, six of them earned.
Be sure to check out this video below of the Spartan players having a little fun with Foerster during her post-game interview.


Johnny Marr Sets Release Date for 'Call the Comet' Album, Shares New Song late last year, explaining that the music addresses "what it feels like to be alive in the UK right now."
"There's a track called 'Bug,' which is about the virus of the rightwing and bolstering our immune systems," he explained at the time, speaking to The Guardian. "And there's another song that is about the feeling directly after Trump and Brexit, but it turned into a story of escaping into this kind of alternative society. There are a few songs that imagine an escape from — I've got to say it — dystopia."
In a newly released statement, Marr further explained, "Call the Comet is my own magic realism. It's set in the not-too-distant future and is mostly concerned with the idea of an alternative society. The characters in the songs are searching for a new idealism, although there are some personal songs in there too. It's something that people like me can relate to."
Marr previously shared the song "The Priest," which featured Maxine Peake, though that song does not appear on the new album.
In addition to the new album, Marr has a series of upcoming tour dates lined up, including some in North America. This includes a Toronto stop on May 30.
Call the Comet will mark Marr's first proper studio album since 2014's Playland. He did, however, release the live album Adrenalin Baby in 2015 and an autobiography titled Set the Boy Free in 2016.

USDA Feed Outlook - December 2013
Projected 2013/14 corn use is increased 100 million bushels this month, split evenly between fuel ethanol and exports. Margins have been very favorable for ethanol mills, with higher ethanol and distillers' dried grains (DDG) prices on the revenue side combined with lower corn prices on the input side. Exports have benefitted from lower corn prices and increased global consumption. Increases in use are offset slightly by a 5-million-bushel increase in projected imports. Production and feed and residual are unchanged. Projected carryout is tighter by 95 million bushels, at 1.8 billion bushels, but still double last season's estimate of 824 million. The 2013/14 season-average farm price for corn is projected 10 cents lower at the midpoint of $4.40 per bushel, with the range narrowed to $4.05 to $4.75 based on prices reported to date.
World coarse grain production for 2013/14 is projected higher this month led by increases for Canadian corn and barley, Australian barley, and Ukrainian corn. Global coarse grain use prospects increase slightly more than production increases, trimming expected global ending stocks.
Imports Bump Up Supplies as Ethanol and Exports Boost Use
U.S. feed grain supplies for 2013/14 are little changed this month as projected corn imports were bumped up 5 million bushels, largely due to increased Canadian production forecasts. U.S. feed grain production is unchanged at 371.5 million metric tons. This is 30 percent higher than 2012/13. Projected supplies are 398.1 million tons, up 24 percent from a year ago.
Forecast U.S. feed grain use is up 2.5 million tons this month at 349.4 million metric tons, on higher corn use for ethanol and exports. This pushes total use up 18 percent from 2012/13. The higher projected use leaves this month's carryout down 2.4 million tons at 48.6 million but still more than twice the 23.6-million-ton ending stocks level estimated for 2012/13.
On a September-August marketing year basis for 2013/14, U.S. feed and residual use for the four feed grains plus wheat is projected to total 141.4 million tons, unchanged from last month. Corn is expected to account for 93 percent of feed and residual use, compared with 87 percent last year.
The projected index of grain-consuming animal units (GCAU) in 2013/14 is 91.4 million units, virtually unchanged from last month and below last season's 92.1 million. Feed and residual per GCAU is estimated at 1.55 tons, up from 1.37 tons in 2012/13. In the major index components, GCAUs are decreased slightly this month for other beef cattle, layers, broilers, and turkeys.
Projected Corn Used for Ethanol Raised 50 Million Bushels
U.S. ethanol production strengthened during October and November as margins at dry mills approached $1.00 per gallon in some areas. Favorable corn prices combined with high prices for ethanol and distillers dried grains (DDG) boosted production. Weekly data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration show increasing production and lower stocks during much of calendar year 2013. In particular, weekly data for October and November indicate production levels are continuing to climb. In addition, the price ratio of DDG to corn exceeded 1.2 (and even reached 1.4 in the Eastern Corn Belt) in many markets as demand for protein feeds strengthened, spurred by shipments of DDG to China where, unlike corn grain, they are not subject to import quotas.
Corn Export Prospects Raised
The U.S. corn export projection is raised 50 million bushels this month to 1.5 billion, based on year-to-date sales. Competitive prices have restored the United States to top place in the global corn market with the U.S. share of trade projected at 33 percent, compared with 18 percent in 2012/13. Generally higher corn trade worldwide has also enhanced demand for U.S. corn.
Higher Use Dampens Projected Carryout
Feed and residual use is unchanged, but the 100-million-bushel increase in total corn use, in combination with the 5-million-bushel increase in supplies, due to larger imports, results in a 95-million-bushel decrease in ending stocks. At 1,792 million bushels, ending stocks are more than double last year's estimate of 824 million.
Forecast Corn Price Projected Lower
The forecast U.S. corn price received by farmers for 2013/14 is lowered by $0.05 on the low end of the range and $0.15 on the high end to $4.05 to $4.75 per bushel. This puts the midpoint of the range down $0.10 to $4.40 per bushel. Monthly average farm prices reported by USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service to date have been higher than prevailing market prices, reflecting earlier forward pricing when corn prices were higher. The season-average price received by farmers in 2012/13 was a record $6.89 per bushel.
Sorghum Export Prospects Maintained, Prices Slip With Corn
With no changes in beginning stocks, production, and imports this month, all U.S. sorghum supply categories remain unchanged and combine for a total supply of 430.6 million bushels. All sorghum use categories, including ethanol production and exports, also remain unchanged this month. Recent shipments of sorghum to China were anticipated earlier in the year and reflected in upward revisions to sorghum export forecasts in September and November. In China, imported U.S. sorghum is economically favorable and nutritionally comparable to local and imported corn for use in swine and poultry feed. The relatively low price of sorghum, the lack of a tariff rate quota (TRQ) limit, and China's potential interest in quality sorghum for production of a popular distilled alcoholic beverage (baijiu) support import demand.
Food, seed, and industrial use categories are left unchanged at 120 million bushels. Expanding fuel demand and the corresponding increase in ethanol production are noted. Grain sorghum faces strong competition from corn as a feedstock for ethanol production. A reflection of robust domestic demand, average grain sorghum prices at country, terminal, and export elevators in Texas and Kansas have increased in the last several weeks.
Due largely to covariance with corn prices, the projected price range of U.S. sorghum for 2013/14 is lowered $0.15 on the high end of the range and $0.05 on the low. The resulting season-average farm price forecast is $3.75 to $4.45 per bushel, with a season average price received by farmers at a midpoint of $4.10 per bushel. This compares to the record 2012/13 season-average farm price of $6.33 per bushel and the 5-year average farm price of $4.75 per bushel.
Oats Prices Post Modest Gains
quarter imports were relatively slow.
The forecast oats price range for 2013/14 is increased by $0.15 on the low end and $0.05 on the high-end to $3.40 to $3.80 per bushel. The midpoint of the projected range for 2013/14 is $3.60 per bushel and compares to the 2012/13 record farm price of $3.89 and to the 5-year average of $3.01 per bushel.
Barley Prices Hold Steady
All barley supply and use categories are unchanged this month. Similar to oats imports, first-quarter barley imports have been slower than expected. Industry sources cite the high quality of this year's domestic malt barley crop as one reason for sluggish imports. However, delayed availability of high-quality, late-harvested Canadian barley is likely a contributing factor.
With the harvest now complete, the size of the Canadian barley crop is clearer; record yields of 71.7 bushels per acre offset a slight decline in harvested area and contribute to the production of an estimated 470.2 million bushels. In addition to its notable size, the 2013/14 malting barley harvest, which includes a significant proportion of increasingly preferred two-row varieties, is reported to be good quality, as evidenced by low protein levels and a generally high percentage of plump kernels. The combination of abundant supplies and good quality favors increased U.S. imports of malt barley from Canada in coming months. A recently signed Comprehensive and Economic Trade Agreement, between the Government of Canada and the European Union, may redirect some Canadian malting barley to EU market channels. With the majority of the U.S. barley crop already marketed, sustained, strong malt barley prices support maintenance of the season-average farm price at previous levels, despite a decline in corn prices. Declines in the price of feed barley correspond to the drop in corn prices and dilute the impact of robust malt prices in the all-barley price. The midpoint of the projected all-barley season-average farm price is $6.00 per bushel, which compares with the record 2012/13 farm price of $6.43 per bushel and the 5-year average farm price of $5.13 per bushel.
Public Comment Period for Alfalfa Insurance Products Nearing Close
The USDA-Risk Management Agency (RMA) is seeking public comment on crop insurance product(s) to cover quality and revenue for forage production. In early summer, a budget-neutral amendment (#987) to the farm bill passed the Senate and facilitated RMA's investigation and development of alfalfa insurance products. Current offerings are not available in all States and have not been widely used by qualified producers. Comments are due to RMA by December 20 and should address the following: desired/most-suitable types of federally-subsidized insurance products, anticipated impact on crop production of new insurance products, and the availability of private forage production insurance that is available to cover forage production. Correspondence should be directed to Eric Henry, Product Administration and Standards Branch: [email protected].
World Coarse Grain Production Prospects Boosted This Month
Global 2013/14 coarse grain production is increased 3.7 million tons this month to 1,256.1 million, mostly due to increased prospects in Canada, Australia, and Ukraine. World barley production is up 1.7 million tons, corn is boosted 1.5 million, oats is increased 0.8 million, and rye is raised 0.2 million, but sorghum production prospects are trimmed 0.4 million.
Canada's coarse grain production for 2013/14 is raised 2.6 million tons to a record 28.7 million tons, 1 percent larger than the previous record reached in 1996/97. Statistics Canada in December conducted a more complete production survey that revealed the sizes of grains and oilseeds crops were much larger than previously forecast. While coarse grain area harvested is up slightly from the previous year, average 2013/14 yield is above 5 tons per hectare for the first time because of exceptionally favorable growing conditions. The largest coarse grain production increase is for corn, up 1.1 million tons this month to a record 14.2 million. Most of the increase in corn is in Eastern Canada (especially Ontario), but area has even expanded in the Prairies. Record area harvested for grain is supporting production, while average yield, though above average, is short of the 2010/11 record. This reflects early season growing conditions in Ontario that were too cool and wet to be optimal, but an extended mild fall helped the crop finish well.
Canada's barley production is up 0.8 million tons this month to 10.3 million. Growing conditions across the Prairies were ideal, with plenty of moisture and a cool summer followed by a warm, late fall. According to Statistics Canada, the average barley yield beat the previous (2011/12) record by 18 percent. Barley harvested area is reported up this month but remains less than that in the previous year and far below barley area from 2003 through 2007. So while Canada's barley crop is the largest in 5 years, it is not nearly record large. The oats crop also benefitted from favorable growing conditions in the Prairies, with record yields increasing production 0.6 million tons this month to 3.9 million tons, the largest in 5 years. There are also small increases in rye and mixed grain production, with increased area harvested for grain more than offsetting reduced estimated yields.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics reported estimated 2012/13 production data, boosting coarse grain production 1.1 million tons to 11.1 million. While not indicative of an exceptionally good year, 2012/13 yields were still better than forecast, increasing barley production 0.7 million tons, sorghum production 0.3 million, and oats production slightly. The Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) reported preliminary forecasts for area and yields for 2013/14 coarse grains. Based on ABARES area information and a complicated mix of favorable and unfavorable growing conditions, coarse grain production for Australia is increased 1.2 million tons this month to 12.2 million. In the East, growing conditions for winter grains were dry in Queensland and Northern New South Wales, but more favorable to the south. In Western Australia early dryness caused concerns, but timely rains improved conditions considerably. For barley, near record yields and a small increase in area are boosting production 1.2 million tons to 8.6 million, the largest in 8 years. Oats production is increased slightly due to yield prospects, but sorghum is projected lower this month, with dry planting conditions trimming expected area and yield prospects.
Ukraine's corn production forecast for 2013/14 is up 1.0 million tons this month to 30.0 million, 31 percent higher than the previous record production. Late harvest reports in the North-Central part of the country indicate better-than-expected yields. Harvest weather was favorable late in the fall. While up this month, the projected yield is below the 2011/12 record. Area harvested for grain is unchanged this month but up sharply over previous years.
Ecuador's corn production prospects are increased 0.1 million tons this month to a record 1.1 million, supported by record yields.
Ps sorghum production for 2013/14 is cut 0.3 million tons to 5.5 million, also due to reports of reduced area. EU coarse grain production is projected down 0.2 million tons to 158.3 million as several reported changes to specific crops in different member countries are mostly offsetting. While EU corn is reduced 0.4 million tons and barley trimmed 0.1 million, rye is increased 0.2 million and oats up 0.1 million. For corn, France drives the decline, with a smaller reduction for Germany offset by increased production in Hungary. Denmark accounts for most of the increase in rye and oats.
Iran's barley production for 2013/14 is cut 0.2 million tons to 3.2 million based on reports of reduced area. There is a slight reduction in corn production prospects for the Philippines caused by storm damage, but little of the corn crop appears to have been affected.
Coarse grain supplies for 2013/14 are mostly changed by production forecasts. This month's changes to estimated coarse grain beginning stocks are small and mostly offsetting. Global beginning stocks are down 0.2 million tons this month to 164.4 million. While EU coarse grain stocks are cut 0.3 million tons to 12.5 million, Saudi Arabia stocks are up 0.2 million to 3.1 million. Other changes are smaller.
Global Coarse Grain Use Projected To Increase
World coarse grain use projected for 2013/14 is increased 4.3 million tons this month to 1,223.6 million, with 3.0 million tons of the increased use in foreign countries. Foreign corn use is up 2.1 million tons, barley use is up 0.7 million higher, oats use is raised 0.4 million, and rye use is increased 0.1 million, but forecast sorghum use is reduced 0.4 million.
Corn feed and residual use is increased 0.6 million tons to 7.0 million for Canada and 0.5 million to 8.5 million for Ukraine, as both countries are having record corn crops. EU corn feed use is forecast up 0.5 million tons to 53.5 million as corn imports are replacing domestic wheat in feed rations, freeing up wheat supplies for export. Kenya's corn food use is increased 0.1 million tons to 3.5 million.
Barley projected use for 2013/14 is increased across several countries, but trade changes limit the global increase. Australia, with increased production, is forecast to increase use 0.5 million tons to 3.8 million, mostly for feed. With increased imports, Saudi Arabia is projected to boost barley feed use 0.4 million tons to 8.8 million. Canada, with a big crop, and Iran, with large beginning stocks, are each forecast to increase barley use 0.3 million tons this month. China's barley feed use for 2013/14 is up 0.1 million tons as well. However, the sum of local marketing year imports are increased 1.8 million tons this month, while exports are up only 0.9 million tons, shrinking projected global use by the difference (see special article on global corn use calculations).
Canada's oats feed use is up 0.3 million tons due to the larger crop, and there are small increases in projected oats feed use for Australia and China as well. EU rye feed use is increased 0.1 million tons this month due to increased production. However, sorghum use is projected lower this month for India, Australia, and South Africa.
U.S. Prospects Trim Global Coarse Grain Ending Stocks
World coarse grain ending stocks for 2013/14 are projected down 0.7 million tons this month to 196.9 million, with U.S. stocks prospects sharply reduced. However, foreign coarse grain stocks are forecast up 1.7 million tons to 148.3 million. Foreign barley ending stocks are up 1.0 million tons, corn is up 0.5 million, and rye and oats are increased 0.1 million each, but sorghum is reduced slightly.
Saudi barley stocks are raised 1.3 million tons to 3.4 million as the strong pace of imports is interpreted as taking advantage of attractive prices to replenish stocks. Australia and Canada, with bigger production this month, are each projected to increase ending stocks 0.3 million tons. China's barley ending stocks are up 0.1 million tons this month with abundant supplies from Australia. However, 2013/14 barley ending stocks are cut 0.5 million tons for Iran, as beginning stocks are likely burdensome to maintain. Barley ending stocks prospects are trimmed 0.3 million tons for Ukraine as exports to Saudi Arabia are strong. EU ending barley stocks for 2013/14 are trimmed 0.2 million tons as strong 2012/13 exports and reduced 2013/14 production tighten supplies. EU rye ending stocks prospects are up this month with production, but a decline in EU oats stocks is more than offset by an increase expected in Canada.
World Corn Trade Up, U.S. Corn Export and Import Prospects Increase
Global corn trade in 2013/14 is projected to reach 110.7 million tons, up 1.5 million this month and 7 percent above the previous record set 2 years ago. Ample supplies of competitively priced corn are encouraging expanded trade. EU corn imports are projected up 1.0 million tons this month to 9.0 million based on the pace of imports and licenses. With corn selling at a significant discount to wheat, it is attractive for the EU to import corn from Ukraine for feed use, while feeding less wheat and using the wheat for exports. Kenya, with corn production problems and growing demand for corn, is projected to import 0.8 million tons of corn in 2013/14, up 0.4 million this month. U.S. corn trade year imports are raised 0.1 million tons to 0.75 million due to increased production in Canada that is likely to be marketed across the border (September-August marketing year imports are up 5 million bushels to 30 million). However, with record corn yields, Ecuador's corn import prospects are cut 0.15 million tons to 0.35 million.
U.S. corn export sales are exceptionally strong, and the export shipments have increased in recent weeks after a slow start caused partly by the late harvest. October 2013 Census corn exports reached 3.3 million tons and November Export Inspections were also 3.3 million. This is up sharply from the dismal level a year earlier but slow compared to most recent years. However, at the end of November, outstanding corn export sales reached 17.9 million tons, significantly larger for that date than any recent year except 2007/08, the high water mark for U.S. corn exports in recent decades. The large export commitments support increasing 2013/14 corn export prospects 1.0 million tons to 37.0 million (up 50 million bushels to 1,450 million for the September-August marketing year). China's rejection of some recent shipments of U.S. corn increases uncertainty about export prospects, but as of the second week of December, only a small quantity had been rejected and U.S. corn was still embarking for China. More broadly, U.S. corn export quotes are increasingly competitive with South America and Ukraine, supporting U.S. export prospects.
Canada, with a record corn crop, has increased export prospects this month, up 0.5 million tons to 1.5 million.
Global Barley Trade Shifting With 2012/13 Data
World barley trade for the recently completed 2012/13 October-September trade year is up 2.1 million tons this month to 21.9 million based on trade data. Saudi imports for 2012/13 are raised 2.0 million tons to a record 10.0 million. Late-season shipments from the EU and Australia to Saudi Arabia were much stronger than expected, boosting their exports 1.0 million tons and 0.8 million, respectively. Also, Ukraine's 2012/13 barley exports are boosted 0.5 million tons to 2.7 million, but Canada's and Russia's exports are trimmed based on final shipments. The 2012/13 data change 2013/14 prospects for several countries. While imports for 2013/14 are relatively unchanged, with only a 0.3 million ton increase for China based on ample supplies from Australia, export prospects are shifting. The EU shipped more-than-expected barley exports late in 2012/13, reducing the export licenses likely to be applied during 2013/14. EU 2013/14 export prospects are cut 0.8 million tons this month to 4.5 million. This cut is offset by increased exports for Australia, up 0.6 million tons, for Ukraine, increased 0.3 million, and for Canada, boosted 0.2 million
