We caught up with Sweden’s latest exports Disembarked for a quick chat about their new EP, Sweden and much more.
S&N: First off, can you please tell us who you are and what you do?
Disembarked: My name is Pontus Carlsson and I sing in Disembarked.
S&N: How did the band get together?
Disembarked: I’s a long story, Gustav, Olle and I have been playing music together since 4 years back, but Disembarked was officially formed August/September in 2011, wrote one song “Reverie” and I asked Pontus Goldberg who was a drummer from the beginning to start playing bass with us, which he luckily wanted too. Johan joined the band after that I’ve been asking him to check us out THREE times, he joined us just after the self titled EP had been recorded.
S&N: What’s it like trying to get coverage outside of Sweden?
Disembarked: We haven’t really tried that hard to get coverage outside Sweden. We’ve had our music out for free, and I guess that helps a lot seeing that many music blogs posted our EP on their sites.
S&N: Is there a big hardcore/music community in Sweden?
Disembarked: The hardcore scene is getting bigger here in Sweden, we have a lot of hardcore promoters here in Sweden, in almost every city that put up shows quite often. Västerås Straight Edge, Feedback booking, 026 Hardcore, Stockholm Straight Edge, Revival Booking, Umeå Hardcore, Norrköping Straight Edge, Hemgården, there’s a couple of promoters putting up Drug free shows around in Sweden. Hardcore doesn’t belong in the pubs.
S&N: Have other bands influenced your music?
Disembarked: We do take influences from other bands indirectly I guess, it’s more of a mix of plenty different genres that we all listen to. We don’t want to be copycats. Most of our influences don’t even come from the hardcore scene.
S&N: I really like the EP, do you write the music and lyrics at the same time?
Disembarked: Good to hear you liked it! Our writing is more like, I write lyrics on my own and we write the music all together. Often I got lyrics already, and then I put it on the music we write and try to fit it together.
S&N: This is something I’ve always wondered, what’s it like writing/singing lyrics in a language that’s not your native tongue?
Disembarked: Sometimes it can be complicated with the English vocabulary, but I think it’s more of a habit, you get used to it I guess. Sometimes I write in Swedish and then try to translate it to sound good in English. English is like our second language here in Sweden, I’ve never thought of it as a problem.
S&N: How did the record come around to be released on Dog Knights Productions?
Disembarked: I found out about DKP through one of my favorite bands, Foxes. Checked out other bands and thought it would be cool to be a part of his roster, since we’ve only heard good stuff about him. It wasn’t until a friend of ours, Sean, who told Darren of DKP to check us out and that we’re looking for a label that things started to happen.
S&N: What are your plans for the rest of the year?
Disembarked: The plans right now is to continue writing songs until we have enough for a full length. We also have 2 tours upcoming, one unannounced in Sweden, and then a europetour with Reason To Care.
S&N: And finally, what band should we listen to that we might not have heard of?
Disembarked: One band? Then I’d say Lydia, they’ve been a huge inspiration.
Disembarked’s EP “I Do Nothing but Regret the Fact That I Left” is available to buy now from Dog Knights Productions here: http://www.dogknightsproductions.com/DK/Store.html

Fox News’ Chris Wallace noted that Biden said he had not seen international allies questioning the credibility of the U.S. then shared examples of officials of allied governments criticizing the withdrawal to support his claim that the president’s comment was “flat wrong.”
He asked, “Mr. Secretary, does the president not know what’s going?”
“This is an incredibly emotional time for many of us and including allies and partners who’ve been shoulder-to-shoulder with us in Afghanistan for 20 years, at high costs to themselves as well as to us,” Blinken responded.
He continued, “From the get-go, I’ve spent more time with our NATO partners in Brussels virtually from before the president made his decision to when he made his decision to every time since. We’ve been working very, very closely together.”
Wallace pushed back, “I’m not questioning whether or not the allies have a right to complain. I’m not questioning whether or not al-Qaeda has a presence. The president said al-Qaeda’s gone. It’s not gone. The president said he’s not heard any criticism from the allies. There’s been a lot of criticism from the allies. Words matter, and the words of the president matter most.”
Watch the video below:

During remarks at the White House on Friday, Biden was asked, “What is your message to America’s partners around the world who have criticized not the withdrawal but the conduct of that withdrawal and made them question America’s credibility around the word?”
“I have seen no question of our credibility from our allies around the world,” Biden responded. “The fact of the matter is, I have not seen that. Matter of fact, the exact opposite I’ve gotten, the exact opposite because we’re acting with dispatch, committing to what we said we would do.”
However, The Washington Post reports that the decision to withdraw has “triggered a globe-spanning rethink of America’s role in the world, as European allies discuss their need to play a bigger part in security matters and Russia and China consider how to promote their interests in a Taliban-led Afghanistan.”
“In the European Union, which held an emergency session of foreign ministers on Afghanistan on Tuesday, officials offered rare criticism of Washington for risking a flood of refugees to their borders and the return of a platform for terrorism in Central Asia,” the Post added.

Additional security will be provided Wednesday at three schools in Clay in the wake of rumors of planned criminal activity at the schools.
Jefferson County Schools spokeswoman Nez Calhoun said the principals of Clay Elementary, Clay-Chalkville Middle and Clay-Chalkville High schools sent word to parents today about the extra security.
Security was added even though county school officials said the rumors have been investigated and were determined not to be credible.
The rumors have circulated among the Clay schools since Halloween, Calhoun said. Parents today also reported rumors of violence planned for Wednesday had reached parents in nearby Trussville.
Kelly Bowles, community relations coordinator for Trussville City Schools, said administrators had not heard of such threats, but officials will be on the lookout.

UAE Corporate Tax: Why businesses should take action now
It has been 6 weeks since Corporate Tax was implemented in the UAE. Although there have been various Cabinet Decisions released that give further clarity to the legislation/regulations we still expect further legislative decisions to be released, particularly surrounding the Free Zone regimes and the implementation of the OECD Pillar Two (global minimum tax rate).
Businesses and taxable persons should not wait for this further clarification, but should seek tax advice now to ensure they are fully aware of how corporate tax will affect them ahead of their first taxable period. Advice should also cover how they meet their compliance obligations under the new regime.
At Sanctuary, we provide our clients with tailored advisory reports, taking into account their specific circumstances and what they can do to mitigate their taxable exposure. With a team of UK-qualified tax advisers with nearly 100 years of advisory experience, we pride ourselves on our holistic approach and aim to be our clients’ first choice of adviser for all aspects of their business affairs and wealth protection.
How we helped a UAE-based family with their multi-jurisdictional business
We were approached by a UAE-based family who operate a large multi-jurisdictional business spanning a number of countries including the UAE and the UK. With the onset of UAE Corporate Tax and other legislative changes, the existing structure was no longer tax efficient nor suitable for commercial expansion.We also established that there was a potential UK Inheritance Tax exposure that the family was not aware of when first contacting us for support.
After various discussions to identify the family’s objectives and longer-term intentions, we provided a comprehensive written report that detailed how they would be impacted by the new UAECorporate Tax regime, highlighted their current tax exposure, and provided possible solutions as to how these could be mitigated. Our advice considered potential future expansion, as well as the forthcoming Pillar Two global minimum tax rate, which will soon be implemented in 136 jurisdictions worldwide.
At the same time as advising on corporate tax we also considered other types of structures, such as UAE Family Foundations, that would allow the family to protect their assets and to facilitate their succession plans to pass on their personal assets and wealth intact to future generations.
If you would like any assistance with UAE Corporate Tax, or your wider financial affairs, please do get in touch today.

We've just wrapped up a study of Daniel in our church. The book of Daniel is a fascinating look at history, God's power and prophesy! John C. Lennox's Against The Flow: The Inspiration of Daniel In An Age Of Relativism book came at the perfect time to be able to continue that study.
This is a big book - over 400 pages! It is not something you simply pick up and quickly read through but it is better used as a continued study. Lennox provides a wealth of history through his writing. Because I was reviewing this book, I skipped around to the chapters I wanted to focus on. I particularly studied the chapters on the 70 weeks and the 70th week. I like how he gave the general opinions of both of these books. I also love how he stated the importance of studying Daniel in relevance to today's world views. People (believers and non-believers) are quick to judge God because he doesn't do exactly what they think He should - this book helped me to see from that perspective and how to actively discuss these thoughts with others.
About the book:
Daniel's story is one of extraordinary faith in God lived out at the pinnacle of executive power. It tells of four young men, born in the tiny state of Judah around 500 b.c., and captured by Nebuchadnezzar, emperor of Babylon. Daniel describes how they eventually rose to senior positions of administration.
Daniel and his friends did not simply maintain their private devotion to God; they maintained a high-profile witness in a pluralistic society antagonistic to their faith. Their story carries a powerful message for us today. Society tolerates the practice of Christianity in private and in church services, but increasingly it deprecates public witness. If Daniel and his compatriots were with us today they would be in the vanguard of public debate.This is a lucid and erudite examination of the life of Daniel from a leading expert on faith and science. In his first biblical work, Dr. Lennox provides a unique perspective on both Western society and biblical exegesis that will make Against the Flow an instant classic encouraging Christians to speak out in our modern Babylon.

Borage is an herb that is excellent as a companion plant for Basil in herb gardens. It is an annual plant with bright blue star-shaped flowers and hairy leaves. Growing Borage alongside Basil has several advantages. Borage attracts beneficial insects like bees, which help with pollination, leading to healthier Basil plants.
Additionally, Borage acts as a natural pest repellent, deterring harmful insects that could damage the Basil. A popular dish that combines both Borage and Basil is a refreshing summer salad, where the leaves of both herbs are mixed with other greens, cherry tomatoes, and a light vinaigrette.

North Area Planting Completed!
AmeriCorps Over the past 6 weeks an AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC) team has been at the Hamilton Wetlands Restoration Project. They have been busy planting native plants to help restore the wetlands that once existed on the former Hamilton Airfield site. The team consists of twelve 18 to 24 year old individuals, from across the country, who have worked hard to plant 11,000 plants, rain or shine. Everyone on the team enjoyed planting, knowing they were helping to create a large and functional seasonal wetland. The team also enjoyed working with the project supervisor Christina McWorter.
Being outdoors was great and the team loved watching the sun rise over the bay. The team liked to spend time discussing the conditions in which they are planting, and had debates as to whether wet or dry mud is better. Most NCCC members found that when it comes to planting, dry soil is the way to go. It makes for easy digging and easier backfilling. Corps member Elijah Rutledge said, “Planting on dry land is heavenly.” However, wet mud has its advantages. Even though the digging is sloppier, and the backfilling takes more time, smoothing the mud out afterward becomes so much easier after planting in wet mud. Stefanie Landman said, “ I like working in wet mud, taking my gloves off. Working with the plants and feeling the mud around them. Making it look like the plants just grew there.”
Rain: Soon after the team arrived in Novato, the rainy season began. In the beginning of the project, the sun was out and smiling on the members. The last half of the project is when the rain really hit. AmeriCorps member Joshua Williams cheerfully announced, “It can be very difficult to work in the rain, but we can always find a way to make it fun. Plus a little rain has never hurt anybody.”
Plants, Plants, and MORE PLANTS! As the AmeriCorps NCCC members will tell you, they were always planting a variety of plants, including pickle weed, gum plant, cattail, coyote brushes, salt grass, alkali heath, common rush and bull rush. They also spent some time pulling invasive species such the Russian tumble weed. There are so many joys to planting, from working in the mud and digging holes to the satisfaction of being able to see the progress that the team completed at the end of the day.

Reviews - What do customers think about Please Feed Me: A Punk Vegan Cookbook?
deadly May 30, 2006
i lived through the time spoken about in this book and it shares many good memories with the reader. The recipes are straightforward vegan fare but good enough to eat. I found it the sort of book you could pick up and open on any page and read about how bands like Green Day and NOFX played in Dublin with no contracts and to crowds of 50 people. You can then try the recipe associated with that gig and feel part of this wonderful punk rock community
The collaborative effort of more than 120 people who donated their vegan recipes Jul 4, 2005
Please Feed Me: A Punk Vegan Cookbook is a unique and welcome addition to any avant garde music enthusiasts cookbook collection because every recipe is accompanied by an anecdote by a band that performed at the Hope Collective -- a popular punk event in Dublin, Ireland, which Niall McGuirk helped to maintain for over a decade and which became a kind of template and inspiration for punk music events across Ireland and the United Kingdom. The collaborative effort of more than 120 people who donated their vegan recipes and thoughts on the importance of the punk rock community and culture, Please Feed Me uniquely illustrates the connections between community, art, activism, health, and the vegan diet.
Strange little cookbook Apr 28, 2005
This presents first as a memoir rather than a cookbook. Must have been a magical era in punk music-- I'm dead envious reading about the musical experience. The food is somewhat remote, no pictures except of the bands. The recipes come from the bands as well, and can be chaotic. Which is fine-- it is, after all, a punk cookbook. Not well organized from the cookbook point of view-- contents are presented according to concert playlists, and not well indexed. I haven't made any of the food, but it's an interesting read, if repetitive. The intro is pieced together from the recipe copy-- you'll recognize entire sections as you skim along. I was hoping for something more like Cooking with the Dead, by Grateful Dead writer Elizabeth Zipern, which is more approachable from the food angle. I'm going to try a few recipes to see if this one is worth keeping long term. It'll be tough to judge, though, as all the recipes are by different cooks. So, overall interesting, but definately not an overview of fundamental vegan cooking. This one is more of a curiosity, a vivid portrayal of a period in punk music, complete history of the Hope Collective, with probably a few recipe gems. If you were fortunate enough to be in Ireland with these guys, it'll be a treasured keepsake.

Please feed me Jan 13, 2005
Alright, I got this last night and read through most of it. About half of the text is devoted to telling the story of a volunteer-run club and all of the punk bands and experiences that the people who worked there have. The other half of the text is devoted to vegan recipes that they collected from the bands.
I'd say the best part about the recipes is that they all seem really cheap - lots of lentils, rice, potatoes, and other cheapo-staples. The recipes are fun, but you could definetly get by without this if you have much experience. There are ALOT of curries and like 3 guacamole recipes. There are several things like burritos that are just obvious - crumbles, veggies, salsa, and guac. Then there are some really cool ones. There was a squatter that had a recipe that involved finding a hubcap, sterilizing it with booze, mixing in all the crusts, skins, (and no, not crusties or skinheads, but it's funny that I wrote that without thinking) or any kind of food that you can and put it in with either water or more booze, then cook it over a campfire. There was also a "bread sandwhich" recipe, which was a slice of bread in between 2 slices of bread.
I'd say for me, it was worth the $10 because I enjoyed reading it and probably will make the stuff that seems really cheap, and alot of the curries too. There was a sheapard's pie that I'm itching to make in it too. Plus I had fun reading about all the punks and how the collective operated. I'm not sure if the average person would be into it though.

Hurricane Patricia – the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the western hemisphere – made landfall on the Pacific coast of Mexico on Friday, October 23rd, around 6:15 p.m. local time. The supply chain event impact, while still being assessed, clearly can be characterized as minor, especially when compared to relatively recent historic extreme weather events such as Hurricane’s Katrina and Sandy and other “acts of god’ such as the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami and the Thailand floods of 2011. It is nevertheless significant as it represents the first weather event with the potential to impact supply chains that can be definitively linked to the El Niño weather pattern.
Several events running up to Patricia have been postulated to be linked to El Niño. These include Typhoon Soudelor (August), Hurricane Etau in Japan (September), Typhoon Dujuan in Taiwan and Eastern China (September), and even the air quality crisis in Singapore and Malaysia (September) caused by Indonesia forest fires associated with El Niño induced drought conditions. However, based on the consensus of scientists and climatologists (including those at NASA and Stanford University), the connection between Hurricane Patricia and El Niño is not in the realm of conjecture, but rather reality.
We have been warning our clients and the broader supply chain management professional community for months to take proactive mitigation actions in preparation for the impending El Niño. In a recent impact analysis white paper entitled El Niño: A Test of CPO Leadership and Your Supply Chain Resiliency Culture, we argued that El Niño is unique in that it is perhaps the only supply chain disruption phenomenon in which the general timing and geographic location of the potential impact is known well in advance, providing a unique opportunity to plan and prepare. It concludes that if executive leadership is blindsided by El Niño, they have no one else to blame but themselves.
The good news is that it’s not too late to get started. We are only in the first inning of a nine inning ball game. There is no more time to waste, but it is not too late to identify your areas of geographic exposure to El Nino driven extreme drought and precipitation conditions. The next step is to map suppliers, sites and parts at risk, and then proactively quantify and prioritize mitigation opportunities based on revenue-at-risk.
Although fears of a major catastrophe did not materialize, as there were no immediate reports of any deaths or damages to major infrastructure, the potential for supply chain impact from Hurricane Patricia for companies with significant supplier exposure in the western coast of Mexico (specifically the states of Nayarit, Colima, and Jalisco), was daunting. The Pacific coast of Mexico is home to numerous automotive, high tech, life sciences, and other industrial manufacturing facilities, as well as port and freight operations. Key companies in the region include Flextronics, America Movil, Mexichem, Grupo Mexico, Pacific Coast Energy and Minerals LLC, and Ciudad Industrial Morelia. But, in the end supply chain impact appears limited to minor work operation disruptions from localized wind damage, floods, and mudslides impeding workforce transportation and the flow of goods in-and-out of southwestern Mexico.
According to experts, the favorable outcome can be attributed to two factors: preparation and luck. As reported in the Sunday New York Times (“Mexico Exhales After Surviving A Giant Storm,” by Azam Ahmed and Paulina Villegas, October 15, 2015), the Mexican authorities learned some hard lessons from inadequate responses to earlier responses. Mexico now has a national emergency response system that coordinates with authorities at the local level. Federal and local officials were effective in proactively moving people out of harm’s way, and after the storm responded quickly to clear roadways and begin to restore power and communication lines. Despite the effective planning, the impact still had the potential for devastating if not for a lucky break. The path of the storm passed between two major cities, Puerto Vallarta and Manzanillo, but hit neither directly. It then quickly dissipated 12 hours after touching ground when it veered into a mountainous region.
The key take-away from the Hurricane Patria experience is that luck, or hope if you prefer, is not a strategy. Enterprises should follow the lead of the Mexican government and invest in proactive risk mitigation plans and post-event emergency response preparedness. Hurricane Patricia represents perhaps your final wake-up call. For those who prepare, global supply chain disruption events are viewed not as threats but as opportunities to gain competitive advantage.

Looking at the pic above, got me thinking, what sort of bike bottle was used by the team back in '89 - they seem to be just plain simple black ones, does anyone know any more details about the 'right' bottle. I did add a cage in 91 which colour matches the original.
I did have one from the team, I was given it by a mechanic at a Milk Race stage finish when I was a kid after asking for some team stickers they where handing out. Will dig though all my old stuff you may be lucky, as I dont remember throwing it out.
Cracking story, and I'll wait patiently! What colour is it/was it?
I've never been given anything that cool, although a mechanic at the Kelloggs in Newcastle around '93 showed me to toe-in my delta's so they didn't squeal as much! I was very grateful!

Holy Crap, the Ice Bucket Challenge Actually Led to a Huge Breakthrough
Oh, the summer of 2014 -- what a time to be alive. It seems like only yesterday authentic rap goddess Iggy Azalea had two major hits on the radio, Sharknado got the sequel it rightfully deserved, and your Facebook news feed was clogged with endless videos of the Ice Bucket Challenge.
The social media stunt asked people to either donate money for ALS research, or dump a bucket of ice on your head (and also still donate to charity because what are you, a monster?), then challenge three friends to do it. So many people got in on the action, including Chris Pratt, Lebron James, Martha Stewart, and every single other celebrity alive.
If you were confused/annoyed at the time -- why were people assaulting each other with freezing water instead of just writing a check to charity? -- it turns out that so much ice and Facebook shares actually helped create a scientific breakthrough. The campaign ended up raising $115 million for the ALS Association. Two years later, scientists have used some of that money to discover a new gene, NEK1, which contributes to the disease.
The research, performed by Project MinE, is the largest study ever conducted on people who inherit ALS. So the ice bucket challenge raised money and awareness; more than 80 researchers in 11 countries looked for people with an ALS family history who could potentially carry the gene. This discovery will help scientists understand the disease better, with the goal of developing gene treatment therapies.
There's no official data to confirm this, but this may be the first time a viral stunt has had a long-lasting positive impact. Now, if only people could be so enthusiastic about donating money to disease research without clogging your social media feeds...

During the last years Sony has presented some of their games weeks before of the E3. Little Big Planet 2 and Infamous 2 are recent examples of this way of proceeding.
It seems this year we will see some new games before E3 arrives next month. All of this according to Fred Dutton, SCEE Blog Manager, who has stated that the company has “a busy week in the offing“. Dutton has also posted this comment on the official Playstation Blog:
some intriguing game announcements planned
Some retailers are already listing GT6 for Playstation 3, so an announcement may not be so far as we think. Of course this tease could be for some other unannounced games for PS4, PS Vita or PS3, but Gran Turismo 6 has gain special prominence in the last weeks, so, the game has serious chances to be presented.
Remember, according to Newegg, Gran Turismo 6 for PS3 has a release date set for November 28th:

DENVER — A woman has died after being hit by a vehicle while riding a bicycle in Denver Wednesday.
According to a probable cause statement from Denver police, 51-year-old David Anton was driving his work vehicle northbound on South Marion Street just before 4 p.m. and tried to make a right turn onto East Bayaud Avenue. He failed to yield the right of way to a bicyclist traveling through the intersection in a designated bike lane, the statement says.
Police said the bicyclist, 37-year-old Alexis Bounds, later died from her injuries at a hospital.
Anton was cited for careless driving resulting in death, police said in a tweet.

Kwibuka Cricket Tournament
Uganda v Kenya
Uganda v Rwanda
Uganda v Zambia
KIGALI - Uganda can not be written off in the annual Kwibuka Cricket For Peace Tournament in Rwanda. That is that!
Two time winners (2014 and 2016), Rita Musamali and Co are chasing a record third title in the T20 competition that has attracted Zambia, Kenya, Uganda and hosts Rwanda.
Uganda is represented by last year's UCA Girls' Schools Cricket Week select side that will look to stop senior national teams.
"We are building for the future and that is why such events are especially dedicated to the youngsters.
"I believe they need such exposure to improve on their game" said acting CEO, Martin Ondeko Tuesday at lugogo during the flag off of the team to Rwanda.
In a repeat of last year's final, Uganda entertain Kenya in their opener on Thursday.
It is a revenge of sorts for Coach Habibu Mugalula's Girls who will be first time players at the Gahanga International Cricket stadium.
The supremely talented trio of Immaculate Nakisuyi, all-rounder Rita Musamali and leg spinner Stephanie Nampiina should give the team the much needed balance.
The three are tipped to feature in the senior national team for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup global qualifier next month in the Netherlands.
Nampiina alone left markings of ingenuity on the Kwibuka tournament last year where she emerged the MVP.
"We are determined to unleash a top-drawer performance in Rwanda. The girls had some time to gel and I think we are good to go" assistant captain Nakisuyi said.
The Kwibuka Cricket For Peace Tournament is held to commemorate the at least one million people that perished during the 19914 Rwanda Genocide.

Interpretive Summary: Potassium is a major essential nutrient for crop growth, yield, and seed quality. Potassium is involved in seed protein and oil production, and sugars transport from leaves to seed. Potassium enhances the ability of crop to resist biotic (diseases, pests, and insects) and abiotic (drought and heat) stresses. Deficiency of potassium leads to yield reduction, low seed quality, and sensitivity to disease and drought and heat stresses. Although the application of glyphosate herbicide (Roundup) has been effectively used to control weed, literature reported that glyphosate can bind to cation nutrients (nutrients that have the ability to form a positive charge such as potassium). This binding can inhibit the movement of potassium, resulting in reduction of potassium accumulation in seed, lowering seed quality. Therefore, the objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of potassium and glyphosate on soybean seed composition (protein, oil, fatty acids, and minerals). A greenhouse experiment was conducted on Roundup Ready soybean, and the treatments were foliar applications of potassium alone, glyphosate alone, potassium and glyphosate combined, and nontreated control. Application of potassium and glyphosate were applied at commercial rates at vegetative stage. The results showed that the application of potassium and glyphosate treatment resulted in an increase in some nutrients such as potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus, and boron concentrations, and resulted in a decrease in some nutrients such as iron and zinc concentrations. However, this increase or decrease depended on the variety. Seed protein and stearic fatty acid percentages increased, and oil and linolenic acid decreased, and this alteration depended on the variety as well. Our research demonstrated that foliar application of potassium and glyphosate can alter (increase or decrease) mineral concentration in leaves and seed composition, but this alteration did not lead to a deficiency level of these nutrients in seed. This research provides useful information on potassium fertilizer and glyphosate management in relation to seed mineral nutrition and quality.
Technical Abstract: Previous studies showed that glyphosate (Gly) may chelate cation nutrients, including potassium (K), which might affect the nutritional status of soybean seed. The objective of this study was to evaluate seed composition (protein, oil, fatty acids, and minerals) as influenced by foliar applications of K+Gly. A greenhouse experiment was conducted at Mississippi Valley State University, using two glyphosate-resistant soybean cultivars DK 4968 and Pioneer 95Y70 grown in a randomized complete block design. The treatments were foliar applications of K alone, Gly alone, K+Gly combined, and nontreated control (C). A single application of potassium (1.75% as K2SO4) was applied, and Gly was applied at a rate of 0.75 ae/ha at V5 stage. Leaf samples were harvested one week after treatment (1WAT) and 3WAT. Mature seeds were collected at harvest maturity (R8). The results showed that K, nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) concentrations increased in leaves in K alone and K+Gly treatments at 1WAT, but significantly increased at 3WAT in all treatments. The concentration of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) showed a decrease in leaf concentration in Gly and K+Gly treatments compared to C. Boron (B) concentration increased in Gly treatment. Seed protein percentage was higher in all treatments in cultivar DK 4968, and the increase was 3.97% in K treatment, 6.94% in Gly treatment, and 3.51% in K+Gly treatment compared to C. The opposite trend was observed in oil concentration, especially in Gly treatment where the percentage decrease was 11.19% compared to C. Stearic fatty acid was significantly higher in K+Gly treatment compared to K treatment for DK 4968. A higher percentage increase in linolenic acid was observed in DK 4968 in K treatment (an increase of 24.49%) and in K+Gly treatment (an increase of 29.51%) compared to C. In Pioneer 95Y70, the decrease in oil was 2.74% in K treatment and 2.3% in K+Gly treatment compared to C. Stearic acid in Pioneer 95Y70 was significantly higher in Gly treatment, an increase of 8.33%, compared to C. Our research demonstrated that foliar application of K and Gly altered mineral concentration in leaves and shifted seed composition towards protein and stearic concentration. Further research under field conditions is needed before final conclusions are made.

On Tuesday afternoon, March 4, 2003, NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite detected hundreds of fires burning across Southeast Asia. This close to the equator, spring-like weather is firmly underway, and fires are being set to clear land for planting and stimulate new growth of pasture grasses. This biomass burning peaks in late winter or early (true) spring, but not before it significantly impacts air quality for hundreds, even thousands of miles around. This image shows (clockwise from top right) China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos (east) and Thailand (west), and Myanmar. Notice the widespread deforestation, especially in eastern Thailand and Cambodia.
The high-resolution image provided above is 500 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response System provides this image at MODIS? maximum spatial resolution of 250 meters.
The intense biomass burning in Southeast Asia, ongoing for the last several months, has released high levels of carbon monoxide into the atmosphere over the region, as measured by the Terra MOPITT sensor from April 3-13, 2003.

Also known as roll carpeting or broadloom carpeting, sheet carpeting has numerous advantages that make it an attractive choice for both residential and commercial applications. Tufted or woven to widths of 6 - 18 ft (1.8 to 5.5 m), sheet carpeting is a great option for hiding an unfinished or damaged floor surface. The large size requires fewer installation seams, which improves appearance and allows less dust to accumulate. In addition, sheet carpeting improves insulation, warmth and sound absorption, and can make a space appear larger. And, because it is nailed or tacked to the floor, the carpet doesn`t move, which helps to improve safety.
On the downside, sheet carpeting must be professionally installed and requires regular maintenance. Also, because it is semi-permanently affixed, it cannot be rotated to minimize wear and can be costly to remove and replace.

Feed-forward neural network models approximate nonlinear functions connecting inputs to outputs. The cascade correlation (CC) learning algorithm allows networks to grow dynamically starting from the simplest network topology to solve increasingly more difficult problems. It has been demonstrated that the CC network can solve a wide range of problems including those for which other kinds of networks (e.g., back-propagation networks) have been found to fail. In this paper we show the mechanism and characteristics of nonlinear function learning and representations in CC networks, their generalization capabilities, the effects of environmental bias, etc., using a variety of knowledge representation analysis tools.
One of the widely acknowledged drawbacks of flexible statistical models is that the fitted models are often extremely difficult to interpret. However, if flexible models are constrained to be additive the fitted models are much easier to interpret, as each input can be considered independently. The problem with additive models is that they cannot provide an accurate model if the phenomenon being modeled is not additive. This paper shows that a tradeoff between accuracy and additivity can be implemented easily in Gaussian process models, which are a type of flexible model closely related to feedforward neural networks. One can fit a series of Gaussian process models that begins with the completely flexible and are constrained to be progressively more additive, and thus progressively more interpretable. Observations of how the degree of non-additivity and the test error change as the models become more additive give insight into the importance of interactions in a particular model. Fitted models in the series can also be interpreted graphically with a technique for visualizing the effects of inputs in nonadditive models that was adapted from plots for generalized additive models. This visualization technique shows the overall effects of different inputs and also shows which inputs are involved in interactions and how strong those interactions are.
Researchers in analog computation theory have shown that a recurrent neural network (RNN) can be built to simulate a Turing machine (Pollack, 1987b; Siegelmann & Sontag, 1995). Recently, we showed that it is possible to train RNNs which implement some aspects of analog computation theory-namely a network can develop trajectories that count symbols (Wiles & Elman, 1995). But what are the implications for psychological models of sequence processing based on RNNs ? As a first step toward answering this question, we investigate an RNN in a psycholinguistically motivated task : predict the next letter in a simple Deterministic Context Free Language that has one level of center-embedding. We demonstrate how the network develops simple coordination between trajectories that enable it to perform limited counting, and in some cases generalize to longer strings. We geometrically identify and analyze several properties relevant for this task, including information loss that results from approaching attractors, divergence in phase space that is used to split states, and difficulty in learning temporal dependencies when the input-output probabilities overlap for different input symbols.
Two methods of obtaining structured information from a trained feed-forward neural network are discussed. The first of these methods extracts structured representations from the hidden layer and tests these against a set of hypotheses. The second method uses a rule-based system based on multiple-valued logic that can be trained using gradient descent.
The neural network rule extraction problem is aimed at obtaining rules from an arbitrarily trained artificial neural network. Recently there have been several approaches to rule extraction. Approaches to rule extraction implement a priori knowledge of data or rule requirements into neural networks before the rules are extracted. Although this may lead to a simplified final phase of acquitting the rules from particular type of neural networks, it limits the methodologies for general-purpose use. This article approaches the neural network rule extraction problem in its essential and general form. Preference is given to multilayer perceptron networks (MLP networks) due to their universal approximation capabilities. The article establishes general theoretical grounds for rule extraction from trained artificial neural networks and further focuses on the problem of crisp rule extraction. The problem of crisp rule extraction from trained MLP networks is first approached on theoretical level. Presented theoretical results state conditions guaranteeing equivalence between classification by an MLP network and crisp logical formalism. Based on the theoretical results an algorithm for crisp rule extraction, independent of training strategy, is proposed. The rule extraction algorithm can be used even in cases where the theoretical conditions are not strictly satisfied ; by offering an approximate classification. An introduced rule extraction algorithm is experimentally demonstrated.
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNS) are able, in general and in principle, to learn complex tasks. Interpretation of models induced by ANNS, however, is often extremely difficult due to the non-linear and non-symbolic nature of the models. To enable better interpretation of the way knowledge is represented in ANNS, we present BP-SOM, a neural network architecture and learning algorithm. BP-SOM is a combination of a multi-layered feed-forward network (MFN) trained with the back-propagation learning rule (BP), and Kohonen's self-organising maps (sorts). The involvement of the sort in learning leads to highly structured knowledge representations both at the hidden layer and on the SOMS. We focus on a particular phenomenon within trained BP-sort networks, viz. that the sort part acts as an organiser of the learning material into instance subsets that tend to be homogeneous with respect to both class labelling and subsets of attribute values. We show that the structured knowledge representation can either be exploited directly for rule extraction, or be used to explain a generic type of checksum solution found by the network for learning M-of-N tasks.
Proposed is GLLL2, a hybrid architecture of a global and a local learning module, which learns default and exceptional knowledge respectively from noisy examples. The global learning module, which is a feedforward neural network, captures global trends gradually, while the local learning module stores local exceptions quickly. The latter module distinguishes noise from exceptions, and learns only exceptions, which makes GLLL2 noise-tolerant. The results of experiments show the process in which training examples are formed into default and exceptional knowledge, and demonstrate that the predictive accuracy, the space efficiency, and the training efficiency of GLLL2 is higher than those of each individual module.
The observed features of a given phenomenon are not all equally informative : some may be noisy, others correlated or irrelevant. The purpose of feature selection is to select a set of features pertinent to a given task. This is a complex process, but it is an important issue in many fields. In neural networks, feature selection has been studied for the last ten years, using conventional and original methods. This paper is a review of neural network approaches to feature selection. We first briefly introduce baseline statistical methods used in regression and classification. We then describe families of methods which have been developed specifically for neural networks. Representative methods are then compared on different test problems.

Hallway lighting is not as valued as the other rooms at home, however it’s just as important, if not more. The hallway is the first room of the house your guests will see when walking through the door. So why not wow them with an amazing hallway lighting layout and make a good first impression? With a selection of decorative ceiling lights and matching wall lights, the eyes won’t know where to look. Hallways are commonly a narrow space compared to other rooms. Therefore, it’s important to choose the appropriate hallway lighting. At Lighting R Us we recommend track lighting for narrow hallways, as they distribute light evenly down the length of the room.

Tri-Citians may be able to ride on a 100-year-old carousel horse as soon as next summer if a group of business and community leaders transform a decade-old dream into reality.
Eric Van Winkle, chairman of the 16-member Three Rivers Carousel Foundation, told the Kennewick City Council on Tuesday that the nonprofit could have the Carousel of Dreams up and running in 13 months without using any more taxpayer dollars.
The cost for a new building reminiscent of a circus tent to house the carousel and to construct a mechanical platform so the 44 horses can bob up and down once again would be about $1.9 million, Van Winkle told the council.
That includes $1.6 million for the building, located between the Southridge Sports and Events Complex and the baseball fields. A gazebo would have to be moved so there is room for the 12,000-square-foot building, Van Winkle said.
An estimated $250,000 would get the 1910 Charles Carmel carousel back to mechanical running condition, he said.
"It's 100-year-old world-class art that you can touch and feel," Van Winkle said.
The council was considering selling off the carousel horses to recoup some of the $830,000 the city invested in the project. The horses, bought in 2003, were restored and have been sitting in city storage.
But the city gave the nonprofit and its new board members another chance to finish the project in January.
Kennewick Mayor Steve Young said the foundation has given the council exactly what was needed.
"I am impressed with how far you have come," he said.
The foundation plans to operate the carousel for public rides, as well as renting out the building for events, such as weddings and corporate gatherings, Van Winkle said. Two banquet rooms and a gift shop are part of the design.
Van Winkle expects the carousel to operate at a loss for the first two years, but said the foundation plans to for the carousel to become self-sustaining.
Councilman Don Britain said he still is convinced the carousel won't generate enough money to sustain itself and will become the city's responsibility.
He said he wanted time to review the group's proposed three-year operating budget.
The foundation's projections show an operating loss of $88,350 in the first year, $60,500 the second year and $32,750 the third year.
The budget starts at about $216,000 for the first year, including one full-time manager and several part-time employees. The initial plan is to keep the carousel open 200 days a year for about eight hours a day.
The foundation estimates ridership will start at 50,000 the first year and increase to 75,000 the third year. Cost would be $2 per ride.
The city would continue to own the land and carousel, and would own the building the foundation will pay for, Van Winkle said. The foundation would lease the property and building from the city and hire an executive director to handle operations.
Councilman Bob Parks said he would support moving forward on the project.
But he said he wants to make sure the city will not end up supporting the carousel financially any more than it has.
The city already has made a large investment in it, he said. Parks previously said he wanted the city to get back the $830,000 already spent on the carousel.
Parks said he thinks the right group of people are behind the project. He hopes they will be successful in finishing the carousel in the 13 months the group has proposed.
"If it is going to go, it needs to go," he said.
Van Winkle said they expect to receive about a third of the money from in-kind donations. Already, $300,000 has been donated without active fundraising, he said. And they still have $40,000 in the bank.
Dwight Marquart, the foundation's vice chairman, told the Herald he and many of the new board members want to see a merry-go-round that will add to the region's quality of life.
"All kinds of people have said they want to be a part of this. There's a lot of passion out there," said Marquart, who became involved in the carousel project about a year ago.
The foundation has moved the mechanical platform to a Port of Kennewick-owned building on Columbia Drive so the parts could be inventoried and assembled. That building was leased at no cost, except for the $500 insurance.
More of the pieces are useable than the foundation's board expected, including some of the costly parts like the large gears, Van Winkle said.
He said they are making molds of the parts so pieces can be more easily repaired later.
The council will consider giving approval for the carousel project at its June 5 meeting.

The Panthers continued their fantastic road run through western Canada on Sunday night, finding the right mix of offense and goaltending in a 4-2 victory over the Oilers.
And for the first time this season, Florida is on what had been an elusive three-game winning streak.
Florida’s three wins came in a span of four nights, starting Thursday in Vancouver.
The Panthers then polished off the Calgary Flames on Friday.
“Right now, we’re getting rewarded and are finding ways to win games,” said goalie Roberto Luongo, named the game’s first star after making 31 saves against Edmonton.
“We knew [Edmonton] had been playing well lately, and this was going to be a tough game. There’s no easy game for us in this league. If we want to win, we have to come to play. We knew this would be a tough match, and we responded.”
The Panthers have struggled against the Oilers over the past few years, despite both teams usually hanging out around the bottom of the standings.
Sunday’s win, which makes the Panthers 4-1-0 on this six-game trip that ends Tuesday in Winnipeg, was Florida’s second in 11 tries against Edmonton.
The Oilers had won five in a row against the Panthers.
“We battled, stayed ahead much of the night and played pretty well. It was a good, solid game,” coach Gerard Gallant said.
Florida opened the scoring on Jimmy Hayes’ 13th goal of the season. He hammered a drop pass from Nick Bjugstad and sent it screaming past Ben Scrivens.
“We have 20 guys going every night, and we’re a tough team to beat when we do that,” Hayes said. “We just have to keep it up.”
Edmonton tied it up 4:07 into the second, but the Panthers took a 2-1 lead into the second break when Brian Campbell scored his second in as many games off another 50-foot shot that Scrivens never saw.
“I didn’t know who was screening for me, and it was Hayes,” Campbell said. “I saw where the puck was going. You have to credit guys who go to the net. It found a hole.”
The third period all but belonged to the Panthers. They took a two-goal lead on two separate occasions — first off a Tomas Kopecky goal, and then Sean Bergenheim iced it with 4:32 left.
“We can enjoy this for five minutes, and then we have to start looking for Winnipeg,” said Kopecky, who scored his first goal in a month.
Added Bergenheim: “I would say it was an ugly win for us, but we got the two points, and we’re happy about that. But I don’t think we should be happy with the way we played. It was a little sloppy. I know how we can play, and there’s a lot to improve. This won’t cut it against Winnipeg.”
Scottie Upshall took a quick flight to his hometown of Fort McMurray, Alberta, on Saturday to be honored by his former junior team.
The Fort McMurray Oil Barrons retired the No.7 that Upshall wore in his one season (1999-2000) playing for his hometown squad.
Shane O’Brien and Shawn Thornton went along for the hour-long private jet flight.
“It was a really cool deal, very classy and was real nice for my family,” said Upshall, who grew up about a four-hour drive north of Edmonton.
“They had a full house of about 1,200, and it was a nice event. Not bad for a tier-2 junior team.”
▪ The Panthers got Dmitry Kulikov back after he missed Friday’s game with the flu. Aleksander Barkov, however, missed his second game in a row. Florida also scratched Vincent Trocheck and O’Brien.

SESSION 9 ***** USA 2001 Dir: Brad Anderson. 100 mins
Co-writer / director Brad Anderson, who later made the THE MACHINIST, wanted to make a grown-up horror film with serious intent at a time when the genre had run the smug, self-conscious post-SCREAM teen horrors into the ground and, in the U,S, was about to remake the J-horror cycle with short-lived commercial success. Barely a blip on the box office radar upon its release in August 2001, the digitally shot SESSION 9 now looks like one of the great American horror films of the 21st century.
Written with actor, Stephen Gevedon, it’s a masterclass of sustained dread, setting its tone via a single flipped shot of a solitary chair in the (real-life) abandoned Danvers Hospital, Massachusetts while the soundtrack (literally) drips with menace. The exposition is delivered as a walk and talk by guest star Paul Guilfoyle which, like the seven-day narrative structure and intertitles ape Kubrick’s THE SHINING.
Anderson has talked of how he could have had more money at his disposal – and potentially a huge hit – if he had cast an ensemble of L.A. babes and hunks instead of the small group of construction workers in need of a decent payday and working in an asbestos-riddled former insane asylum with a questionable reputation. Supervisor Guilfoyle would prefer to have the cavernous, bat-winged building demolished to make way for a Wal-Mart, but the powers that be want it still standing. Project leader is stressed family man Peter Mullan, who seems to be harbouring immense guilt over an incident with his wife and new born baby; his friend David Caruso, who’s miffed that he has to work with the dude who stole his girlfriend (Josh Lucas), wannabe lawyer Gevedon and Mullan’s mullet-sporting, metalhead nephew Brendan Sexton III.
The eponymous ‘Session 9’ is the final tape in a sequence discovered by the over-curious Gevedon and documenting the psychiatric sessions with a former patient suffering from multiple-personality disorder. It is Mullan, however, who begins hearing the voice of the most imposing of those alters, Simon, while the cracks begin to show in the whole team as Anderson’s film becomes an intense study of all-male ensemble paranoia (with echoes of Carpenter’s THE THING). It is punctuated by sweat-inducing individual sequences (including the nyctophobic Sexton III running down a corridor as all the lights go out) while Anderson’s roaming camera has us looking for things that never physically appear. The pay-off is discreetly brutal, with a notable cameo by Larry Fessenden and a clever fake-out incriminating the wrong man.
It’s the final five minutes, however, that haunt like few others. A reveal that cuts deep. A desperate phone call from a man begging forgiveness at his lowest ebb. A closing aerial shot of Danvers accompanied by what might be the most bone-chilling last line in modern American horror. Anderson set out to make a horror movie that gets under your skin and makes you want to shower immediately after. Mission: Accomplished (and then some).

Every once in a while social media can be good for something other than cheeky memes and fight videos. For example, one can be put on to fresh new music by a dope indie artist. This is how The Illixer discovered Eli $tones. Eli is a recording artist / rapper / songwriter from right here in Milwaukee. He is currently pushing an EP coined Elsewhere 2. “Can’t Go” is the third track to be released from the collective and the visual for the tune is what put Eli $tones on the site’s radar.
“Can’t Go” is produced by Ocean Beats. The production is of a novel quality. The solid bass, quirky secondary musical components, upbeat tempo, and bouncy vibe make for a refreshing combination. The hook is decent. The delivery has a fitting melodic tone to it and the lyrics are emotive. The verses are transparent. Eli $tones utilizes a spirited flow, consistent wordplay, and personal rhymes. He does a stand up job of taking the listener through his struggles with love as he tries to navigate the roller-coaster ride that is adulthood at the same time. An excerpt from his dilemma includes: “Won’t even check for me. S–t getting hectic. Remember that we used to ball. I said you were dead to me. I been so selfish cause I just been wanting it all. So I drown in the s–t. Tomorrow with some other chick. (…) I can’t forget all the times that I took you for granted when you said you need me. Pain in my heart. And I know that I’m better but swear that you’ll never believe me.” Those are some heartfelt lines right there. As a whole, this is a noteworthy track.
The video for “Can’t Go” is filmed, directed, and edited by TradeMark Media. The concept for the visual is pretty straight to the point. It consists of a series of performance shots amidst bright colorful backdrops and sleek editing tricks. The colors and editing ploys align nicely with the energy of the record. And Eli $tones does his thing as well. He brings lots of charisma and enthusiasm to the camera. All in all, this is an enjoyable watch.
**My Two Cents: Long time site affiliate Rockz caught wind of “Can’t Go” and thought that the site might appreciate what Eli $tones has to offer. And she was right. He has a magnetic way about him and one can tell that he is invested in his music. “Can’t Go” is a satisfying groove. And the premise behind it is one that we are all familiar with. The lyrics could use a little tweaking but I believe Eli $tones is going to be around for a while. So there will be plenty of time for him to further grow and develop. If readers agree, they should be sure to hit those links at the beginning of the post. -MinM

Google (GOOG +1.9%) files for an experimental license to test a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled device in four U.S. cities (FCC application) in a move that could tip off that the firm is considering a new hardware device of some kind. The mysterious product under development is still a secret, although GigaOM reasons that it could be a set-top-box style device or a new version of Google TV.
