," Aug. 28) is comical, but I felt I needed to share my feelings on it.



Brian S. Davis, Lincoln



Genetically engineered anything is scary, especially if it comes to where we can choose the children we want. I cannot imagine a future where we walk into our doctor's office with our wife and start to construct the blueprint of the supposed “perfect” human being. Whether we believe in God or not, we are not Him,Coach Factory Online, and if He exists, only He should have His hand in the creation of another person. How will any child be special if every child is,http://www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com/? And think of the consequences of being able to make a person any way we want to. Imagine a serial killer getting hold of that technology and being able to create an army of himself,Coach Outlet.



Imagine not caring what happens to a child because we know we can just make another,www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com. Imagine losing our human senses because we all become carbon copies of ourselves. I imagine that world, and it’s not a world I would ever want to live in. Technology can be a bad thing,Coach Factory Sale Outlet. People need to learn to leave some things alone. Genetically engineering human beings is one of them.

Vijay Gour, associate professor at the Jawaharlal Nehru Agricultural University, Jabalpur, says the initial hype over Jatropha resulted in several multinational companies investing in large plantations for oil production without proper planning,www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com.





Nutrient availability also improved through recycling of the biomass back into the soil,Coach Factory Online. Nitrogen increased by 85 kilograms per hectare, potassium by 44 kilograms, and phosphorus by eight kilograms.



"Our emphasis is on reducing the burden of degraded lands and problems such as runoff, siltation and receding groundwater. If we could rehabilitate degraded lands, it may lead to improved carbon sequestration,Coach Factory Sale Outlet, soil fertility and greening," Wani told SciDev.Net.



Large-scale cultivation of Jatropha – known as a potential source of biofuel – can improve the soil quality of degraded lands and address climate change, says a new study.



Also, by increasing organic carbon in soils and live root activity Jatropha plants encouraged growth of the soil's microbe population – a key indicator of soil health.





Previous experience has shown that commercial farming of Jatropha is fraught with problems, including non-availability of quality seeds and the need for inputs such as irrigation and fertilisers.



Jatropha curcas seeds yield oil that can be processed into biodiesel, but scientists at the International Crop Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Hyderabad, have found that Jatropha plantations can also sequester carbon in abundant quantities.



More studies, as well as crop improvement through such methods as genetic manipulation, are needed before Jatropha can become a viable source of biofuel, Gour told SciDev.Net,Coach Outlet.



The findings, reported in October in Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment, may reignite the 'fuel-versus-food' debate where critics argue that Jatropha cultivation diverts lands that could be used to grow food crops and affect food security.



Jatropha plantations older than four years added as much as 1,http://www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com/,450 kilograms of organic carbon per hectare per year through leaf fall, pruned twigs and residue after removal of oil, the study said.



ICRISAT scientists, led by Suhas Wani, assistant research programme director, studied Jatropha plantations in six different locations in India and measured the amount of carbon dioxide – a greenhouse gas – they removed.



At the current productivity levels of 1–1.5 tonnes of oilseeds per hectare, commercial Jatropha cultivation for producing biodiesel is not as economically viable as other crops, Wani said. Hence, it is better used for restoring degraded lands, he said.

Instead I'll refer to history.



Hindsight shows it was a monumental victory in the program's history.



?



"I've never felt very comfortable here," he said. "I felt when I took over for Bob (Devaney after the 1972 season) that it would be uphill. I thought it would be difficult to last more than five years."



"Yet that was the nature of the deal here," Osborne said in 2007.



Osborne often has said he almost didn't see a fifth year at Nebraska, such was the heat on him at the end of the 1976 season.



After assessing the 1968 season, Devaney turned to Osborne, the offensive ends coach at the time, to redesign the offense. Positive results were almost immediate.





History shows it's a good thing for Nebraska that Osborne and Devaney avoided the chopping block.



Tom Osborne uttered a statement late in the 1994 season that might resonate with whoever happens to be leading the Nebraska football program.



His first four teams at Nebraska went 9-2-1, 9-3, 10-2 and 9-3-1. That fourth squad ended the 1976 season with a 27-24 triumph against Texas Tech in the Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl. It seemed a rather mundane triumph.



It feels like a crucial time in Pelini's tenure at Nebraska. There's increasing pressure and scrutiny,Coach Outlet. There's a new boss in town. There's discomfort. Goes with the territory, as Osborne and Devaney would attest.



Following a 12-0 loss to Kansas State in November of 1968, Devaney quipped famously, "I know the fans are with me, win or tie."



Five national championships -- two by Devaney (1970 and 1971) and three by Osborne (1994, 1995 and 1997) -- suggest patience may indeed be a virtue, even when it comes to the decision to either fire or retain a head coach.



Devaney felt significant heat in 1968 at the tail end of his second straight 6-4 season. At that point,http://www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com/, he was in the seventh of 11 seasons as Husker coach.



I'm not smart enough to dole out suggestions for how Pelini can improve his program. I will note,www.coachfactorysale-outlet.com, however, that both Devaney and Osborne made key changes that led to improvement.



Nebraska is a wonderfully unique program in several ways. But it's like most other programs in that many Husker fans will turn quickly on a coach during a rough patch.



Probably always will be.



When Bill Callahan was fired in 2007, the Nebraska administration's concern about empty seats was a leading factor. That hasn't been an issue for Pelini.



Still is.



In the wake of Saturday night's 63-38 loss at Ohio State -- Nebraska's fourth lopsided road loss in the past year -- everybody with a keyboard is offering suggestions on how Pelini, the fifth-year Nebraska coach, can right his ship.



Yeah, fired despite winning 76 percent of the time.



Fan discontent also can be glaringly apparent. In 1967, Nebraska lost to Oklahoma in Lincoln before a crowd of fewer than 60,000 -- more than 4,000 short of capacity.



In the late 1970s, Osborne decided to recruit quarterbacks who could run, the evolution really taking hold in 1979. In 1980, the Huskers recruited Turner Gill of Fort Worth, Texas. He finished 28-2 as NU's starter, including 20-0 in the conference.



I'll refer to a thought-provoking bit of Osborne lore.



Hope Bo Pelini also has a good sense of humor.



Osborne again felt heat from fans at the end of the 1978 season, enough that he nearly accepted an offer to become Colorado's head coach. A key factor in his decision to stay at Nebraska was his comfort with Devaney,Coach Factory Online, the athletic director at the time.



If you're expecting me to preach patience to Nebraska football fans,Coach Factory Sale Outlet, forget it. It would be an exercise in futility.?



Fan discontent can manifest itself in not-so-obvious ways. In 1978, according to Husker historian Mike Babcock, Osborne experienced problems selling his weekly television show to sponsors in Omaha, a crucial recruiting area.



Devaney understood Osborne's plight, having survived those 6-4 seasons in 1967 and 1968.





Nobody's suggesting Pelini, 43-18 at Nebraska, is on the hot seat. But it seems many fans are edgy. And let's face it, fan discontent can spread quickly and significantly impact a program.



Does Pelini feel the need to make significant systemic adjustments? His recent teams have lost by large margins even with decent talent. Are there underlying issues?



More than a few suggestions are accompanied by curse words.



"That evening, one of the regents got me aside and said, 'I'm glad you won tonight because if you hadn't, you would've been fired,'" Osborne has said.

The squirrel was picked up in early September at a campground north of Idyllwild, located in the San Jacinto Mountains in southern California.





-- Protect your pets by leaving them at home, or by keeping them on a leash and using flea-control methods



Routine tests are done as plague is endemic to the area, said Merki,Coach Outlet. Authorities plan to conduct more tests this week,www.coachoutletfactory-sale.com, weather permitting, she said,Coach Factory Outlet.



Plague can cause serious illness or death, though modern antibiotics are effective in treating it if administered promptly, the CDC said.



Plague is caused by the bacterium, Yersinia pestis.







Health officials in Riverside County stressed that the risk of transmission to humans is small, especially if people take the proper precautions. They offered the following advice:





-- Do not feed or touch wild animals



(CNN) -- Authorities in Riverside County,http://www.coachoutletfactory-sale.com/, California, said Tuesday that a ground squirrel has tested positive for exposure to fleas infected with the bacteria that can cause plague.



-- Avoid contact with squirrels and other wild animals



It's the country's first positive test in more than a decade, according to Dottie Merki, environmental health program chief at the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health.



-- Do not rest or camp near animal burrows



-- Do not touch dead animals



"It's not something that people should panic about, but we do want them to be educated so they can protect their families and their pets,Coach Factory Online," she said.



Humans can get plague from handling an infected animal or from being bitten by a rodent flea carrying the bacterium, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

* Buffalo Springfield breaking up because, he says, Bruce Palmer kept getting deported to Canada, not because he and Stephen Stills wanted to do solo projects,Coach Outlet.





I’ve spent the last few days in Neil Young’s world -- and it is a fascinating place to be.



My trip there began when “Waging Heavy Peace,” his memoir, turned up in the mail last week. It peaked Tuesday afternoon when I watched “Neil Young Journeys,” his latest film collaboration with director Jonathan Demme, that opens Friday at the Ross Media Arts Center.



When he does “Leia,” a song about the musically inclined little daughter of a friend, well, I knew who it was about and why it was written.



Although he doesn’t specifically mention Lincoln or Farm Aid III, he talks about finding a pair of his continuing collaborators, bassist Rick Rosas and drummer Chad Cromwell, when they were playing with Joe Walsh at a Farm Aid. Walsh played Farm Aid II and Farm Aid III. It was in 1987, after Farm Aid III, that Cromwell and Rosas joined Young in the Bluenotes to record “This Note’s for You,” a song he debuted in Lincoln.



It is that effort, which some have seen as an attack on Apple and iTunes, that provides the title of Young’s book. He’s not waging war on Apple, he’s “waging heavy peace” on behalf of music. Here’s hoping he wins.



While not designed as such, the film, which has been out since late June, and the book that was released a week ago, are companion pieces, together providing a rich glimpse into Young, his life and music.



Since I started “Waging Heavy Peace,” I’ve been listening to Young’s music -- old and new -- primarily on Spotify, one of the streaming services he endorses. I’d love to hear it at its highest quality via Pono, which was used for “Neil Young Journeys.”



Similarly, Young talks about writing “Ohio,” the Kent State song he does in powerful fashion in the film’s Toronto concert, and putting together “Hey Hey My My,” his rock-and-roll-will-never-die anthem, another movie highlight.



* Claiming his “endorsement” of Ronald Reagan was designed as a rebuff to a pair of journalists who began deriding the then-President at the start of an interview,www.coachoutletfactory-sale.com. Contrarian Young said Reagan had some good qualities and by the time the article came out, he had endorsed Reagan. That’s one of the reasons he now rarely does interviews.



If you’re a Young fan, “Waging Heavy Peace” is a must-read and “Neil Young Journeys” a must-see. But get ready to get lost in his world, a fascinating place with music always at its center.



There’s a small note of local interest in the book as well.





An MP3, the most common digital music format, Young writes, has about 5 percent of the data that can be found on a recording’s master file or even a vinyl record. Young’s system, called Pono, will deliver the highest resolution sound to its players, so, as he told David Letterman last week, "when an artist records at a certain level, that’s it, it doesn’t get dummied down to CD or MP3.”



Those bits are examples of the insights Young provides in his rambling memoir, which bounces around in time and place -- from the Canada of his childhood, which is seen in the movie,Coach Factory Online, to his Broken Arrow Ranch in California and beach home in Hawaii, where he wrote most of the book last year when his musical muse was absent, perhaps because, at age 65, he quit drinking and smoking pot.



For example, when Young is singing in the film about still working while someone is up in heaven, I knew that was about Larry Johnson, his longtime assistant and friend who was one of the primary members of the team that cares for Ben Young, Neil’s son with cerebral palsy. A photo of Larry and Ben pops up on the screen during the song, but without the book, I would not have? known their connection.



Along the way, Young talks about his music and bands (Buffalo Springfield; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; Crazy Horse); his Nashville collaborators; his collection of big old cars; his projects from model railroads to Lincvolt, his electronic car; his friends, famous, like Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, and not,Coach Factory Outlet; and his family.



Across the 497 pages, Young repeatedly returns to his on-going project to “rescue my art form, music,http://www.coachoutletfactory-sale.com/, from the degradation in quality that I think is at the heart of the decline of music sales and ultimately music itself in popular culture.”



* Admitting that he deserved the shot Lynyrd Skynyrd hit him with in “Sweet Home Alabama” after his insulting “Southern Man.”



Together, Young’s ruminations and the movie provide a portrait of an artist who is honest in his self-evaluation and generous in his praise of those close to him. He is a blazing, fearless talent, and a man still unsettled and searching at an age when many begin to fade away.



There are, of course, some revelations in the book. Three of them include:
