For Corporate & Investor Information
Kouvola enhances its health management
The Town of Kouvola is piloting a new health management service to improve its employees' work ability. The service is being provided by Kunnan Taitoa Oy in cooperation with Aino Health Management. The health management service enables municipalities to systematically monitor work ability in accordance with the early support model.
A health management service tailored to the Town of Kouvola by Taitoa and Aino is currently being piloted. The pilot phase will last until the end of 2016, and the operating model will be developed based on user experiences during that time. Other municipalities are interested in hearing about the results of the pilot project and the experiences gained during the project.
The Town of Kouvola is aiming to have highly competent personnel with a high level of well-being at work. The cost of work disability has been high in Kouvola in recent years. Now the goal is to reduce sickness absences by systematically paying attention to work ability issues at an early stage, when such issues can be resolved most easily. The health management system provides the necessary tools for work ability management.
– "Aino offers a tool for implementing our own work ability operating model that aims to support employees' well-being and work ability throughout their careers. The electronic system helps us monitor the functionality of our work ability processes, as well as our ability to respond to issues in a timely manner," says Päivi Karhu, Personnel Director at the Town of Kouvola.
Aino provides a tool for ensuring that supervisors discuss the situation with an employee if the number of sickness absences exceeds a predetermined limit. Among other features, the town has access to an alarm system that notifies supervisors of such cases. The system also serves to ensure that the jointly agreed operating model is used consistently throughout the organisation as part of daily management and supervisory work.
New type of health management reduces municipal costs
Kunnan Taitoa is a national HR and financial operator that improves management through knowledge in municipalities.
The health management service is part of Taitoa's new set of management information services. The partnership between Taitoa and Aino offers new types of opportunities for municipal managers to affect preventive well-being at work and its maintenance, as well as the optimisation of personnel resources and cooperation with occupational healthcare.
Effective health management reduces the cost of work disability and sickness absences in municipalities.
– "Municipalities have a clear need for digitised health management processes that produce
valuable information for personnel resource management about sickness absences and their cost, even by unit and in real time. Aino is an experienced operator offering a system and concept that have been tried and tested in the world of business. It is the most comprehensive solution for the needs of municipal well-being management currently on the market," says Sari Kujala, Development Director at Taitoa.
– "Aino provides companies with tools for efficiently managing sickness absences and risks related to work ability and for improving working capacity and optimising healthcare services. The best results are achieved by permanently improving working capacity and by reducing risks through early intervention," says Markku Pitkänen, COO at Aino.

More From City Makers: American Futures
'Our Erie' Tells Its Story
Meanwhile in America: 'New Americans' in the Rust Belt
'Let's Care About Someone Who Does Not Belong to Our Tribe'
The End of the Journey
Deborah Fallows
Eastport Road Map: Global Meets Local in a Very Small Town
The consequences of a good kind of frustration.
My wife and I have exactly one frustration about the series of cities we've been visiting over the past two months. It is that we have been seeing things, meeting people, asking questions, getting answers, and overall being surprised-and-informed at roughly ten times the rate at which we've been able to describe any of this on line.
Reinvention and resilience across the nation
Yes, we realize that in the journalism business, as in life, this is a very fortunate sort of problem to have. But it's a challenge nonetheless, which we're continuing to address in several ways. Soon we'll be augmenting our web posts -- and Esri geoblogs, and reports from our friends at Marketplace -- with a sequence of articles for our print magazine. I'm writing one now for the January issue -- November's the one that's just appeared. (Say it with me: Subscribe!)
And when it comes to Eastport itself, where over the course of a week we had such a surprising range of interactions, with such a variety of people, drawn from such a minuscule community, I thought it might be useful to list the kinds of things we learned about and intend to discuss. I do this partly for journalistic transparency reasons; partly as a signal to people who generously spent time with us that it wasn't for naught; and mainly to hint at the density of effort, imagination, and commitment to community we were exposed to during just one week. Items on the upcoming-features list include:
The "Women of The Commons" and the gamble they have made to try to revive part of the historic downtown, which not long ago was largely boarded-up;
The ups and downs of the "aquaculture" business, and what it looks like to stand on a pen in which 25,000 salmon are being fed -- right next to other pens that together hold half a million fish;
Why it is the best, and worst (but mainly best), of times for local lobstermen;
What that garish fisherman statue, shown in the photo at top, is doing in the middle of town -- hint, the answer involves Fox TV;
How an economy and community work when most people assume they will need to hold 3 or 4 or 5 simultaneous jobs (a theme of yesterday's Marketplace report);
The role of the nearby Maine Maritime Academy, one of several ways in which the town that is short on young people is trying to entice more of them to stay;
The startling ambitions of the Ocean Renewable Power Corporation;
The also-startling but different ambitions of the local Port Authority, as they involve products ranging from live cattle to "torrefied" wood -- and how the turmoil in Syria has affected them;
The role of one local family in developing a (viable!) print newspaper, run by one brother and his wife, while the other brother has developed a city museum, begun a nascent set of artist studios, and restored derelict buildings. All of this within the confines of the four-block-long downtown;
Why one experienced local mariner and big-ship pilot runs a global fish business from his home in Eastport, and another runs his manufacturing yard in the city;
What a local co-op is doing to revive the scallop fishery, and shift the fishermen to a much more advantageous place on the value-added chain;
How an Eat Local movement brings together local farmers, residents, and restaurants;
The economic, cultural, educational, and other interactions between the town and the adjoining Passamaquoddy reservations;
What Eastport's 120-student Shead High School looks like;
Some of the special language planning and usage of Eastport;
How three restaurants, a coffee shop, a theater company, and an orchestra eke out an existence here;
The battle to bring back the railroad; and
The importance of location, location, location, as illustrated below.
Plus a lot else. All of this with the theme of people in the middle of what they universally recognize as a struggle for a town's survival. Again I am piling these up in a list not for spoiler purposes but to indicate the same thing we repeatedly encountered in China: the density and surprise of local experience, and its connection to larger national and global trends.
A final note on location. As mentioned yesterday -- and as cited non-stop by local port authorities -- Eastport has the deepest natural harbor in the continental United States, at 60+ feet. Its siting, "remote" from the rest of America's perspective, is also a potential strategic plus. The maps below are via the handy online Great Circle Mapper. They're not exact renderings of sea routes, but they give you the idea that Eastport is the closest U.S. location to ports in Europe:
And perhaps more surprisingly, also those in Africa, as shown first with sample routes to Casablanca:
And then Dakar:
And, while it's harder to show with this kind of map, Eastport also becomes by far the closest Eastern Seaboard location to Asia, through the warming Canadian arctic route.
More ahead. You can see why we are excited, and also the fortunate sort of frustration that we feel.

Boxwood Sauvignon Blanc
2017 Boxwood Sauvignon Blanc
Producer: Boxwood Winery (Complete Product Listing for this producer.)
Boxwood Winery
Web Site: boxwoodwinery.com
Wine Region: United States - Virginia
Boxwood, a National Historic Landmark, is one of the earliest horse farms in Middleburg, Virginia, a region of American colonial and Civil War history. Originally settled in the eighteenth century, the farm became a well-known horse farm, the home of General Billy Mitchell, a pioneer of military aviation, and now the site of Rita and John Kent Cooke's Boxwood Winery.
To accomplish this goal, John Kent Cooke asked renowned viticulturalist Lucie Morton to design the sixteen acre vineyard and Purdue University Professor of Enology Richard Vine to advise architect Hugh Newell Jacobsen on the design of the state-of-the-art winery. In 2006 Stéphane Derenoncourt, one of Bourdeaux's greatest winemakers, became consultant to Boxwood. Today Stéphane works with Boxwood's viticulturalist, winemaker and executive Vice President Rachel Martin, in developing the best blends for each vintage.
Winery Acreage: 19 acres
Varietals Produced: Only ENTAV Certified plant material is planted:
MERLOT: 181, 343, 347 & 348
CABERNET: 214, 623 & 327
CABERNET SAUVIGNON: 341, 337 & 191
PETIT VERDOT: 400
MALBEC: 595
The Boxwood Estate Vineyard boasts the tightest planting on the east coast. The 19 acre sustainable vineyard blankets the slopes of this historic farmland on its highest elevation. Every vine and grape are treated with tenderness and respect, producing elegant wines with depth, complexity and finesse.
Exposure/Soils
Boxwood Estate Vineyard is comprised of 3 blocks; A, B & C Blocks with an average elevation of 535ft above sea level. The vineyard is Purcellville Silt Loam with Gneiss, Shist and Granite bedrock. A-Block, planted with Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc comprises the highest portion of the vineyard with the most well drained, loose and rocky soil in the vineyard. The exposition of A-Block varies from North West to South. B- Block, planted entirely to Cabernet Sauvignon has considerably more clay limiting the growth of the vines, exposition is North West. C-Block, planted entirely to Cabernet Franc, has varying soils with rocky thin soils at the northwest edge and slopes slightly to the southeast with increasing clay content.
The climate in Virginia varies from year to year, which is one of the reasons our vintages vary in characteristics and blend content each year. In general Virginia experiences warm days and cool nights with moderate rainfall from early spring through early June with temperatures and humidity increasing in July and August. September and October offer more moderate temperatures and drier months for the grape harvest.
Middleburg AVA
The Middleburg AVA (American Viticultural Area) in Virginia is home to 200 square miles in Loudoun and Fauquier Counties, and in 2012 was the seventh AVA established in Virginia. Boxwood Winery initiated the six year petition process to establish Middleburg as an AVA in 2006. Located about 50 miles west of Washington, D.C. and surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains and Potomac River, the Middleburg AVA has nearly 24 winemaking facilities. Major grape varieties include Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Merlot and Viognier.

2017 Boxwood Sauvignon Blanc Details
Origin: United States - Virginia
A pale lemon color reflects an overall citrusy bouquet and flavor profile, captured by bursts of fresh, bright acidity. Lemons and lime zest, as well as passionfruit and pear dance along the mid-palate, accentuated by a creamy and luxurious finish.
VA1EE448005SBS 750ml 12 Glass TBD TBD $21.00
After a nearly ideal growing season, the Sauvignon Blanc was hand-picked on August 24th & 25th 2017. After being chilled and sorted, the grapes were whole cluster pressed, cold settled and fermented in stainless steel tanks between 50-55°F over the course of 3 weeks. The result is a crisp and clean expression of a great growing season, due in part to the coming of age of our three-year-old Sauvignon Blanc vines. At Boxwood they are excited about this second vintage of Boxwood's first white wine offering, and look forward to future vintages and the imminent integration of the rarely planted Sauvignon Gris varietal into their Sauvignon Blanc!

Q: Unity multiple interfaces implementation registered by convention I'm trying to register by convention multiple implementation of single interface and later use all those interfaces as dependency in other classes. Unfortunatelly, I'm having some problems trying to do so.
I want to register multiple implementation, so I added WithName.TypeName druing registration but this seems to be causing problems. Without it, I can't register multiple implementations for single interface.
Below is simple example which is not working. Unity is throwing exception and I don't know why.

Unity.ResolutionFailedException: 'Resolution failed with error: No
  public constructor is available for type KYPClient.IConf.

namespace KYPClient
{
public interface IConf
{
    string conf();
}

public class Conf : IConf
{
    public string conf()
    {
        return "conf";
    }
}

public interface ILoader
{
    string load();
}

public class Load_1 : ILoader
{
    public string load()
    {
        return "load-1";
    }
}

public class Load_2 : ILoader
{
    public string load()
    {
        return "load-2";
    }
}

public class MainCls
{
    private IConf _conf;
    private IEnumerable<ILoader> _loaders;

    public MainCls(IConf conf, IEnumerable<ILoader> loaders)
    {
        _conf = conf;
        _loaders = loaders;
    }

    public void Run()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine(_conf.conf());
        foreach (var l in _loaders)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(l.load());
        }
    }
}

internal static class Client
{
    private static void Main()
    {
        using var container = new UnityContainer();

        container.RegisterTypes(
            AllClasses.FromAssemblies(typeof(MainCls).Assembly),
            WithMappings.FromAllInterfaces,
            WithName.TypeName,
        WithLifetime.ContainerControlled);

        var main = container.Resolve<MainCls>();

        main.Run();
    }
}

}

A: The issue is you're using the WithName.TypeName option. This means that each type from the assembly is done as a named registration in the container. This is a good thing in your case because you are registering multiple ILoader instances, so the container has to be able to differentiate them. However, it also means that when it's being resolved, you have to pass the name in order for the container to find it.
In other words, when the container sees the constructor public MainCls(IConf conf, IEnumerable<ILoader> loaders) it interprets that as "inject the IConf instance with the default name" which doesn't exist in your container. Your IConf is registered with the name "Conf" (or possibly "KYPClient.Conf", I'm not sure, as I've never used the RegisterTypes method).
Thus, you have to explicitly name it in your constructor. Also, per How to configure Unity to inject an array for IEnumerable you need an array to get all the registered ILoader types.
public MainCls([Dependency("Conf")] IConf conf, ILoader[] loaders)

Of course, there are some drawbacks to using named dependencies (such as, what happens if you refactor and rename your class). Take a look at the second answer to With Unity how do I inject a named dependency into a constructor? for a strategy around that using a factory pattern.

Biografia
Bertrand fu un professore dell'École Polytechnique e del Collège de France. Fu anche un membro dell'Accademia delle Scienze di Parigi, di cui fu segretario per ventisei anni.

Egli congetturò, nel 1845, che esista sempre almeno un numero primo compreso tra n e 2n − 2 per ogni n > 3. Nel 1850 il matematico russo Pafnutij L'vovič Čebyšëv dimostrò questa congettura, chiamata ora Postulato di Bertrand.

Bertrand tradusse in francese l'opera di Carl Friedrich Gauss sulla teoria degli errori e sul metodo dei minimi quadrati.

È noto inoltre, nell'ambito dell'economia e della teoria dei giochi, per aver ideato un modello di concorrenza duopolistica, chiamato appunto Modello di Bertrand.

Jerry's Longer Bio
(longer narrative bio; a shorter one lives here)
Jerry Michalski (ma-call-ski) is the founder of REX, the Relationship Economy eXpedition, a collaborative inquiry into the next economy, which is based on trust.
More broadly, he is a pattern finder, lateral thinker, connector and facilitator. He loves public speaking and has a unique claim: the world's largest published Brain (online and in an iOS app).
Three decades of exploration into the interactions between technology, society and business made him realize the word "consumer" made him itch. Paying attention to the word gifted him the thesis that we are entering a Relationship Economy: We are rediscovering trust, interdependence and meaning through movements as varied as open source software, pattern languages, the sharing economy, microfinance, unschooling, traffic calming and workplace democracy.
From 1987 to 1998, Jerry was a technology analyst, first at the market-research firm New Science Associates (where he created two of their seven research services), then as Managing Editor of Esther Dyson's monthly tech newsletter Release 1.0, as well as co-host of her annual conference, the PC Forum. He was fortunate to be on duty when the Internet showed up and helped shape the nascent industries that it changed.
Since 1998, Jerry has been independent, advising organizations large and small, including many a startup that has since been bought, merged, sunk or taken public. He's been widely quoted in the major media and greatly enjoys public speaking.
In 2010 he founded REX around his discomfort with "consumer." He paid attention to the word, its metaphors and business models, and realized that every sector of our lives has been consumerized — to society's detriment. REX members come from diverse sectors of the economy.
Prior to starting REX and writing Release 1.0, Jerry spent five years at New Science Associates, a technology market-research firm similar to Gartner (later bought by Gartner). At New Science, Jerry launched and ran two of their retainer research services, Intelligent Document Management (which included hypertext and groupware) and Continuous Information Environments (which included wireless communications, voice/data integration and then-hot topic of pen computing). He framed the services around client dilemmas, not tech segments as was the analyst-industry default, which greatly appealed to client firms like GE, AmEx and FedEx and caused competitive market-research firms eventually to follow suit. His conceptual scope diagram for the IDM service forced another industry-wide shift, this time from bullet points to conceptual illustrations.
Jerry's first real job in the world was as a transportation clerk at Mobil Oil, looking up freight rates in a room full of paper tariffs, a job that has been successfully automated since then. At home, he was learning about computing and the early online world with an Apple II+ and a 300-baud Hayes modem. He's one of those folks who brought his Apple to work to show his colleagues VisiCalc, the first spreadsheet — which they didn't understand.
Between Mobil and New Science, Jerry earned an MBA from the Wharton School and spent almost three years in strategy consulting with an internal strategy startup at Price Waterhouse. (He rues that his age shows as the companies he was with continue to change names, such as ExxonMobil and PricewaterhouseCoopers.)
Jerry earned an MBA from the Wharton School, where he stumbled into the mind-expanding ideas of Russ Ackoff, and a BA in Economics (mostly econometrics) from UC Irvine. He is two degrees from Kevin Bacon, having taken an urban-design course at Penn from Kevin's Father, Ed. He was raised in Peru and Argentina and speaks fluent Spanish and German, as well as pretty passable French. You can contact him at sociate@gmail.com.
Finally, here's a long but excellent interview from 2006.
Be the first to start the conversation.


MADRID, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Spain's Telefonica gained 90,000 mobile clients in its domestic market in August, thanks to its bet on broadcasting soccer just as Britain's Vodafone stopped buying the rights to key matches.
It is the first time that Telefonica has led the market in adding customers for broadband and mobile, according to Spanish regulator CNMC.
Telefonica and Orange both sweetened their offers during the summer to attract Vodafone's 400,000 Spanish television subscribers who pay for football add-ons, but the French operator lost almost 11,000 mobile clients in August.
Bundled telecom offers, a popular package in Spain, usually consist of two mobile lines, broadband fixed line and television. This would indicate some 45,000 of Telefonica's new subscribers signed up for the high-end service.
"We expect Telefonica to add around 150,000 broadband subscribers in the next 18 months with around 90 euros ARPU (average results per user)", said Credit Suisse in a report in September. ARPU is a closely watched gauge of telecom companies' profitability.
A hefty price tag of almost 4 billion euros ($4.55 billion) for the soccer rights put the company under pressure to attract enough new customers to justify the investment.
Spain's fourth-biggest company by market capitalisation is fighting fierce competition in its home market, where it makes around a quarter of group sales, from cheaper rivals MasMovil and Orange's Jazztel.
It has adopted a dual strategy after investing billions of euros in high-speed networks in Spain: aiming upmarket with its Movistar Fusion bundled package and towards lower-spending customers with the O2 brand it also sells in Britain.


Goal: I would like to set the NES background as a single repeating pattern.
Problem: I can't get my pattern to display. I have the pattern I want loaded into the pattern table, I have written the colors I want to the background palette, all name tables are pointing to tile zero, all my attribute tables are zero; yet nothing is being displayed.
Why is so much of the NES memory mirrored? From a newb point of view this seems wasteful.
Here I'm thinking it might be best to not manually disable IRQs (call SEI) and let the system do it naturally on interrupt for the benefit of simplicity.
I see no $2005 writes or clearing of $2006, which from what I can see looks to be the root cause (based on lines shown in the 3rd screenshot, which indicate where the X/Y scroll are at).
I see two problems with your code.
B. Set $2000 using the name table you need for bits 1 and 0 (making sure to appropriately set the NMI enable and sprite/background bits).
B. the frame interrupt is inhibited by writing a 1 to bit 6 of $4017.
The fastest way to deal with this, of course, is to simply do an SEI and be done with it, if you're not using any IRQs at all, which is the approach I would go with in this case.
NES memory is mirrored because Nintendo wanted to keep manufacturing costs low, I think.
IRQs need to be acknowledged by the programmer (the method of this depends on what hardware causes the IRQ), or they will execute continuously. This, I think, was meant to allow for multiple IRQs occurring, so that each hardware that requested the interrupt could be serviced in turn. IRQs are not supposed to interfere with NMIs ideally. The only reason why it would happen on the NES is because the IRQs are firing off continuously before the PPU hardware is given a chance to be allowed to fire off NMIs.
Interrupts only disable IRQs until the RTI instruction is executed. The RTI instruction returns the I flag to whatever it was set to before. Therefore, you still need to disable IRQs outside of interrupt code if you don't want them to happen.
I hope this hasn't been too confusing, I will attempt to clarify if need be.
Quite the opposite! Mirroring memory requires less logic/hardware than NOT mirroring it. If you have only 2KB of memory to fill a space of 8KB, it's AUTOMATICALLY mirrored to fill the whole space. Since there are no negative side effects from the mirroring in most cases, it's cheaper/simpler to just leave the mirrors alone.
I think he meant wasteful of the address space. Like you say, though, it's a tradeoff: waste logical address space, or use more hardware. Given the lack of need for logical address space, they choose to use less hardware.
I've never understood, on the NES/6502, what purpose mirrored CPU addressing ranges served. I'm specifically referring to $0800 to $1FFF and $2008 to $3FFF.
I fully understand what it provides in the case of the SNES/65816, where for example portions of bank $00 are mirrored throughout other banks -- the purpose there should be obvious.
Likewise, on the Apple IIGS (again 65816), there were some "shadowed" (mirrored) registers and memory ranges which I was told time and time again by older/senior programmers should be used because, somehow at some particular level (hardware-wise), "they were faster than using the non-shadowed versions". I still don't understand how this can be the case, since it's going to cost the same number of CPU cycles no matter what the address is; I can see the benefit if there's a separate bus that runs at a higher clock speed that the mirrored/shadowed areas ties into, and that, say, a DMA chip could utilise (for memory copying/transfer), but the IIGS had no such thing. The only thing that made sense (in this regard) was the "mirroring" of banks $00 and $01 to banks $E0 and $E1 on the IIGS, where banks $00/01 ran at a slower clock speed (to be compatible with the earlier Apple II models) while banks $E0/E1 ran at a higher clock speed (reference; search for the phrases "shadowing is the term" and "$E0 and $E1 execute at standard clock speed"). I believe what I'm remembering are people telling me to access certain registers via $E0C0xx rather than $00C0xx to benefit from the higher clock speed; but how this matters I still don't understand (for example both sta $e0c034 and sta $00c034 would take 5 cycles (assuming 8-bit accum)).
Anyway, in the case of the NES/6502, I just don't see anything advantageous from the aforementioned mirroring.
2A03 has limited pins. PPU/SRAM/etc. decoding is done externally with a '139. This generates select signals for the cartridge, internal SRAM, and PPU. It would have taken 3 more pins on the 2A03. I'm guessing that this would have pushed it into a package size that cost noticeably more at the time (economics of size aren't just the small amount of extra plastic/pins, but the quantity produced, molds, etc.) 2A03 and 2C02 also both have 40 pins, so they probably get some economy by using the same count.
koitsu: Why would there need to be a software advantage to justify the mirrors on the NES? If it simplifies the hardware to leave it mirrored, isn't that purpose enough?
Well the 2A03 has 16 pins for A0-A15 (hence making up the full 16-bit address bus), and I understand that a 74LS139 is used to handle designation of "what speaks to what" (CPU vs. PPU vs. SRAM vs. external), but I still don't see how that justifies the $0800-1FFF and $2008-3FFF mirroring within CPU addressing space. Why is that needed? Why couldn't it just be left floating/open bus for the CPU? Or is there some kind of "commonality" (not sure what other word to use here) between the addressing spaces (as far as the 74LS139 goes) within the PPU vs. CPU vs. SRAM vs. external that justifies this need?
How does it simplify the hardware design? That hasn't been explained. A reference to a 74LS139 decoder being used does not explain why said CPU addressing ranges needed to be mirrored (respectfully blargg, not arguing or being combative).
Leaving certain address ranges as open bus would have required more hardware to generate the select signals for those ranges.
The '139 has two one-of-four decoders. Each has an active-low enable, two inputs, and four active-low outputs.
The NES feeds the first one A from PHI2 and B from A15, with /EN low so it's always enabled. This generates /Y1 on access to 0-$7FFF, and /Y3 on access to $8000-$FFFF. The latter goes directly to the cartridge. /Y0 and /Y2 aren't useful as they indicate the other half of a cycle.
/Y1 is tied to the second decoder's enable, so it's enabled on access to the low half of the address space. A goes to A13 and B to A14. This divides the low half into four segments, 0-$1FFF, $2000-$3FFF, $4000-$5FFF, and $6000-$7FFF. It uses /Y0 for SRAM and /Y1 for the PPU. To "fully decode" SRAM, it'd need to look at A12 and A11, only enabling then they're low. To fully decode the PPU, it'd need to additionally look at A3-A12 (10 additional address lines), only selecting the PPU when they are all low. This adds hardware and latency due to gate propagation delays.
Incomplete decoding is elegant in the context of doing enough to work and not wasting extra hardware on things that don't matter.
Well, for example, mirroring a particular range 4 times means that there are 2 bits in the address decoding for it that don't have to do anything. The mirroring is simply a side effect of ignoring those bits.
Thanks! Seems like scrolling can get quite complicated! I will eventually have to master scrolling in both horizontal and vertical directions.
I've added the following ASM, it seems to put my X, Y at (0, 0) and clear $2006 which is what I'm going for.
It seems that the bigger problem was that PPU control byte #2 was being written to $2000 instead of $2001, that explains why nothing was being displayed. I must have copied and pasted the first PPU control line, changed the bits, but forgot to change the address it was being written to.
Wrong, you have to not care about $2006, and write to $2005 two times, and then to $2000 to set the scroll. Only use $2006 to set scroll during rendering.


Ancient Concepts of Philosophy sets the work of the ancients in the context of recent thinking about the nature and value of philosophy. William Jordan questions what we can learn from the ancient philosopher's varying conceptions of the ideal life. He argues that ancient philosophy was tied much more closely to ways of life, and lived up to its reputation as the search for wisdom. Jordan traces the emergence of the idea that the philosopher leads a distinctive and uniquely valuable lifestyle. This ancient concept of philosophy, he argues, is the one which differs most markedly from our own.

Home / WORLD / Protesters gather in NYC to denounce vaccine mandates for education workers & layoffs for non-compliant teachers
Protesters gather in NYC to denounce vaccine mandates for education workers & layoffs for non-compliant teachers
The protest rally kicked off outside the Big Apple's Department of Education (DOE) facility in Brooklyn, per local reports, and later made its way across the Brooklyn Bridge, toward Manhattan. The action took place the same day a vaccine mandate for teachers came into force in the nation's largest school district, with non-compliant staffers facing a period of unpaid leave, or the option of quitting with a severance deal.
Videos of the demonstration circulated on social media – much of it captured by videographers Brendan Gutenschwager and Leeroy Johnson – with protesters heard chanting "The system is corrupt!" in one clip.
As the procession moved uptown, a few protesters were seen breaking off the march to demolish a mobile Covid-19 testing tent set up in Union Square. Police soon intervened to stop the destruction, as a woman was heard shouting "Shame on you!" at the vandals. The tent was repaired and looked to be back in working order just a few minutes later, however.
According to city officials, around 90% of all DOE staff had received at least one vaccine dose as of last Friday, though the city's school chancellor Meisha Porter noted that some 18,000 doses had been administered since that time, as department employees raced to comply with the mandate.
From Union Square, the protest march took a somewhat odd detour, hitting a nearby Australian diplomatic office to denounce that country's ongoing Covid-19 lockdowns – which have been among the world's harshest and longest-lasting shutdown orders amid the pandemic.
With some marchers seen hoisting Australian national flags, chants of "Save Australia!" could be heard from the rally as it neared Canberra's consulate on 42nd Street. Others were heard shouting "We will not comply!"
New York has been no stranger to protests over vaccine mandates and passports as of late, with several erupting last week, including upstate. At least 1,000 demonstrators hit the streets of Manhattan and Staten Island last Monday to denounce mandates for healthcare workers – as well as the Big Apple's first-in-the-nation vaccine pass system – while another crowd gathered outside the Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, where chants of "My body, my choice!" were heard repeatedly, echoing a popular slogan of abortion activists.

Exago extensions allow developers to access, extend and modify the platform's capabilities to suit particular needs that can't be handled "out-of-the-box".
The interface for most capabilities is via coded elements, done either via Code Editor in the Administration Console or external code modules provided via .NET Assemblies or Web Services. Other situation-specific options are also available, such as providing custom, parameterized SQL.
Exago supports a Custom SQL type Entity. Objects of this type are very similar to pre-defined database views. They consist of a SQL statement, have an implied field schema and return a relational value.
There are a few differences from traditional database views however.
Exago Custom SQL statements can be parameterized. In other words Exago parameters can be embedded within the SQL statement. Parameters serve as placeholders for runtime values. Upon execution of a report any parameter values will be replaced with the value of the parameter at runtime. Any part of the SQL statement can be parameterized in this way.
Exago Custom SQL statements behave like any other entity type. Administrators can attache column metadata. Report designers can filter, sort and layout fields from the entity, etc.
Since the SQL is stored in the Exago configuration no intervention by database administrators is required.
Add a new Data Object and select the Data Source from the dropdown. Instead of selecting a table or view from the name field, click the SQL button on the right of the name field.
You will be presented with the SQL code editor. Specify a name for your Data Object (no whitespace or special characters) then enter your SQL as shown.
Notice the @StartDate@ and @EndDate@ parameters. They can be manually typed or inserted by selecting from the list of Parameters and selecting the Add button.
When finished select Ok to save your object's information. You can then specify and Alias and select Unique Key Fields like any other object.
The global SessionInfo object is available to Custom Functions, Server Events, and Action Events. It is similar to the API object in that it contains the full running state of the Exago system during execution.
Collections of metadata and settings normally set in the Administration Console and/or via the API are accessible through the sessionInfo.SetupData property. Note that for the most part the accessible properties are settable via SessionInfo.
Custom Functions and Custom Filter Functions allow developers to create abstracted high level language routines that are used by report designers. Standard Custom Functions appear in the Exago Formula Editor as if they were part of the product. Custom Filter Functions are available to use as values in user formulas.
Both types of functions have access to the SessionInfo object, creating powerful opportunities for context-sensitive processing as well as storage. In the case of Custom Functions, global storage can be used to maintain counts as the report is processing.
Server Events are handlers invoked on the server side during the normal execution lifecycle. They allow developers to inspect and/or modify running state to achieve situation-specific objectives. Server Event handlers also have access to the global SessionInfo object, providing the same global storage and state variables as mentioned above.
A commonly used event is the OnReportExecuteStart event, which allows the handler to make modifications to a report just prior to execution. Another commonly-used event is OnExecuteSqlStatementConstructed which is invoked after Exago generates SQL but before it is shipped to the data source. This event can be used to simply log the SQL for audit or diagnostics or to modify it to e.g. substitute actual fields for placeholders.
Action Events are handlers invoked on the client side during the normal execution lifecycle and include an abstracted interface for server-side callbacks to gather data as needed and perform similar tasks. They offer a rich interface for modify charts and dashboard reports in response to user actions. There are also specific interfaces to allow trapping and instrumentation of things like user saves.
The end user view is the same regardless of the type of data source. Users will see no difference between relational and programmable data sources when building reports and dashboards.
Custom data sources are often used when it is desirable to make use of an existing business logic layer such as a means to pull data from non-traditional or distributed sources.
The External Interface is a set of pre-defined event types that can be trapped and instrumented. External Interface events are similar to Server Events with two key differences: External Interface can be invoked via web service (whereas Server Events require code developed using the Administration Console code editor or via .NET assemblies). As a result External Interface methods do not have access to the global SessionInfo object.
Custom Options allow administrators to alter the Exago UI to capture custom input from report designers. The values chosen by the designer are available via the sessionInfo object and are thus accessible to Server Event and Action Event handlers.

Wyatt Miller, UCF Knight and Coffee Trojan, signs with Jets
Written by Robert Preston
Published in Sports
Featured Photo courtesy of Facebook Wyatt Miller is now a New York Jet.
In a week where the NFL news hasn't been good for Coffee County, there is finally a bright spot. Wyatt Miller, a 6'4", 306-pound offensive lineman from Central Florida and a former Coffee Trojan, has signed as an undrafted free agent with the New York Jets.
"J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! So thankful this opportunity. Let's get to work," Miller posted on his Twitter account after the news broke.
Miller, a two-year letterman with the Knights, started all 13 of Central Florida's game last season and made the American Athletic Conference's Second Team. Going into the draft, Miller was projected to be a late-round selection or an undrafted free agent signee. He is the second undrafted free agent the Jets have selected from Coffee County. In 2014, wide receiver Demario Bennett also signed with the Jets after he finished his career at Coastal Carolina.
Miller is the son of Randy Miller and Janie Ricketson Hester.

The NHL's 2011 Winter Classic was held at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on January 1, 2011. The Pittsburgh Penguins hosted the Washington Capitals in a rain delayed outdoor hockey game in a football stadium. Wow! It was incredible in every way.
I took too many photos to sort and select from. The first bunch of 42 is here and they cover up through Evgeni Malkin's goal that opened the scoring in the second period. The good stuff (if you're a Washington Capitals fan) should be posted tomorrow.
So much has been written already…but I haven't read any of it yet so I don't even know what where would be good to link. I have some suspicions, though.
You can look at the photos here or on flickr. Once I have them all done, I will create a "best of" gallery that should be easier to get through. Thanks for your patience!

By This Poet
What still grows in winter?
Fingernails of witches and femmes,
green moss on river rocks,
lit with secrets... I let myself
go near the river but not
the railroad: this is my bargain.
Water boils in a kettle in the woods
and I can hear the train grow louder
but I also can't, you know?
Then I'm shaving in front of an
unbreakable mirror while a nurse
watches over my shoulder.
Damn. What still grows in winter?
Lynda brought me basil I crushed
with my finger and thumb just to
smell the inside of a thing. So
I go to the river but not the rail-
road, think I'll live another year.
The river rock dig into my shoulders
like a lover who knows I don't want
power. I release every muscle against
the rock and I give it all my warmth.
Snow shakes
onto my chest quick as table salt.
Branches above me full of pine needle
whips: when the river rock is done
with me, I could belong to the evergreen.
Safety is a rock I throw into the river.
My body, ready. Don't even think
a train run through this town anymore.

Business of HYPE Mar 24, 2019
Business of HYPE is a weekly series brought to you by HYPEBEAST Radio and hosted by jeffstaple. It's a show about creatives, brand-builders and entrepreneurs, and the realities behind the dreams they've built. On this special two-part episode, Jeff sits down with Round Two co-founder and vintage aficionado Sean Wotherspoon.
Whether you know him for his Nike Air Max 1/97 or as the owner of Round Two, it is without a doubt that Sean has made a lasting impact on today's streetwear culture. The vintage connoisseur, designer, collaborator, entrepreneur, Youtuber, whatever it is you want to call him, does not define himself by any title as he says he "likes to do everything." The Northern Virginia native tells us that from an early age he was obsessed with skating and sneakers. It wasn't until his move to Richmond where his affinity for thrifting turned to a sport.
"I remember I found this vintage Polo bear shirt, and it was one of the first vintage items I found. And I loved it, because I loved the new Polo bear. But in my head I was like, 'Holy shit!' I pieced it together. 'Wait this is what Polo must have looked at to re-release for the one that I got. 'Holy shit I have an original.' Once I calculated that there's originals…it was all downhill."
Sean and his co-founders, Luke Fracher and Chris Russow, opened their first store, Round Two, in 2013 in Richmond. With no supply chain to buy from, the three of them started with selling items from their personal closets. He emphasizes that he had no inclination the store would do well as it was all about "having fun." But the audience grew and within their first weekend they had made a respectable $2,000 USD.
He attributes much of Round Two's success to being located in a smaller city like Richmond, versus having more competition in a city like New York. When it comes to starting a business, he advises us that it "doesn't matter where you live." With six years under his belt, Sean and his team have expanded Round Two to eight stores with plans of going international. He remains adamant on keeping it brick-and-mortar as he loves giving people the unique experience of shopping the curation that him and his team have put together.
"We've created so many stories with people it's unreal and I'm obsessed with that. Every person that leaves the store — like I said whether it's positive or negative feedback — I appreciated either way. I appreciate that person took the time to come by and create some kind of story with us."
Later on, we learn that Sean doesn't identify Round Two as a resale store. While the buy/sell/trade model can be applied to it, he emphasizes that their stores are more focused on a curation of items he deems "priceless." These priceless goods, he explains, have no set monetary value, but rely on the idiosyncrasies of their buyers. For Sean, this is what Round Two is all about: creating an experience where you can walk in "with your eyes closed and not find something shitty."
So listen in to part one of this extensive interview with Sean Wotherspoon as he details the early beginnings of Round Two, his passion for thrifting, and guidelines to what makes an item "priceless." Stay tuned, as Sean discusses his collaboration with Nike and much more in part 2 next week.

Lil Wayne's Ex-Manager Reportedly Sues Him For $20 Million
Lil Wayne is getting sued for a $20 million, at least, by one of his ex-managers, Ronald Sweeney. But the interesting caveat is that Lil Tunechi allegedly sold his masters to the Universal Music Group for over $100M.
According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Sweeney has filed a $20 million lawsuit against the rapper over unpaid commission. The New Orleans artist reportedly hired Sweeney in 2005 to help him negotiate his contract with Birdman's Cash Money. The matter was ultimately settled back in 2018 with Sweeney's help.
However, the lawyer says he was not fully compensated for his work in the Cash Money deal.
Per our settlement agreement, the matter has been amicably resolved to the satisfaction of all parties. In terms of the particulars, we're prohibited legally from saying anything further. I can say that my client is happy. He is his own man, a man that owns his assets, his music and himself. At some point, Wayne will let his fans know what's going to happen next.
Ronald Sweeney
Weezy also asked Sweeney to fire his then-manager Cortez Bryant, before taking on the role himself. The suit claims Wayne agreed to pay him a 17 percent commission, but Bryant and rapper Mack Maine "conspired to drive a wedge between Wayne and Sweeney."
Wayne's camp has yet to publicly respond to the suit.

Q: Java upcasting in container I have two classes parent and child and child extends parent.
Parent parent = new Child();

Works as expected but the confusion happens when the object is in an container like so.
Vector<Parent> vp = new Vector<Child>();

This gives the error:
incompatible types: Vector<Child> cannot be converted to Vector<Parent>

So my question is does the container prevent the implicit typecasting that occurs when we do
parent = new Child();

A: It looks like you expect that given Child subclass of Parent, Vector<Child> is a subclass of Vector<Parent>. This behavior is called covariance (things vary together) and it is not the way things work in Java's generic collections. In Java Vector<Child> and Vector<Parent> are not related (they have an invariant relationship).
A more detailed explanation here: Covariance, Invariance and Contravariance explained in plain English?

The former United States Post Office is a historic building located in Creston, Iowa, United States.  Built in 1901, the building housed the post office on the main floor and a federal courtroom on the second floor.  The combination Beaux-Arts and Georgian Revival structure was designed by James Knox Taylor who was the Supervising Architect of the United States Department of the Treasury.  The Beaux-Arts style is found in the cornice, lucarnes, portico, and the
door and window enframements.  The Georgian Revival is found in the general mass and elevation of the building, window detail, use of brick, the hipped roof, and the division of the main facade into a projecting central pavilion and single-bay wings.  The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.  The post office has subsequently been relocated to a more modern building, and this building has been converted into commercial space.

I picked a modal satin hand-embroidered shirt from Label Pallavi Kandoi for Day 04 of Amazon India Fashion Week Spring/Summer'18, and paired it with upcycled pleated ikat pants from Studio 17, statement jewelry pieces from Varnika Arora, retro style Enrico Eyewear sunglasses and my Swarang Designs handcrafted vegan leather bag. The look turned out to be quite #IndiaModern in terms of the crafts and designers it featured, each piece #MadeInIndia, without me consciously trying to make it so.
I wore a marble printed shirtdress by Pallavi Kandoi last to last sceason as well if you remember, and have been a fan of the brand ever since. Their new collection is a lot sweeter, delicate, pristine and mostly features a lot of whites so I was naturally attracted to it. This shirt specifically caught my attention due to the unique cut and the gold-button detailing here and there. And then there are those adorable little red french knots embroidered all over. Quite the proud owner of this dainty creation I am!
Moving on to the pants, are they gorgeous or are they gorgeousss! I'm a huge ikat fan. I actually love all kinds of weaves but there was something extraordinary about the colors on this vintage ikat silk saree I had, that has been upcycled and turned into a pair of pleated wide-legged pants by Studio 17. Loving this initiative of theirs – creating something precious out of anything that is of no use to us anymore.
I tucked only one side of the shirt in the pants to reveal the ikat waistband, and left the other out so one can see and admire the cut and detailing on the side of the shirt.
Jewelry pieces from Varnika Arora's latest collection seemed to match perfectly well with my look. The Delta earrings adorned with green malachite and sunset citrine proved to be a beautiful contrast against the white shirt, while totally complementing the colors on the pants. The Saturn rings I chose, to go with it, feature the same texture and gold finish as the earrings. Delicate, yet unique, they borrow their luminosity and colors from faraway galaxies.
As for my bag, you might remember seeing it previously teamed with the Shantanu & Nikhil saree I wore to their show earlier this year. It's the kind of bag that gets you all the compliments in the world, each time you carry it, owing to the beautiful dhokra art it features.
Designer Kavita Bhartia was showcasing on the day so I was extremely happy and proud to extend support by wearing a bespoke pair shoes they created specially for the show.

Miyawaki Sakura Stirs Up Rumors After Leaked Magazine Cover Reveals Her Alleged HKT48 Graduation
She's been with the group for a decade.
Miyawaki Sakura's (Sakura) time with HKT48 may be ending very soon.
Miyawaki Sakura | Off The Record Entertainment
A leaked Japanese magazine cover featuring the former IZ*ONE member has become the talk of the town after they began making their rounds online. Sakura is on the cover for ViVi magazine's July edition and according to the magazine, the girl group member may be hanging up her Japanese idol lifestyle.
With the title, Born to be Idol, Sakura stunned with her captivating visuals for the cover of the magazine. The girl group member showed off her delicate, feminine side with a mesh pink top and her soft pink makeup.

Amongst one of the magazines subtitles, one portion read "Sakura recently announced her HKT48 graduation." According to reports, the full text reads, "Miyawaki Sakura returned to HKT48 after her promotions with IZ*ONE came to an end. However, she recently announced her HKT48 graduation."
Another portion of the magazine subtitle read, "HKT48, AKB48, IZ*ONE and to the world," further exciting fans about her future promotional activities. With the many rumors circulating about the girl group member, this piqued the interest of not only her Japanese fans, but also her Korean fans.
"HKT48, AKB48, IZ*ONE and to the world" | ViVi
Previously, Sakura made headlines when rumors began to circulate that she was signing with HYBE Labels (Big Hit Entertainment.) While the speculations were not confirmed nor denied, the timing of HYBE Labels' alleged upcoming girl group and the Sakura-related rumors seemed too coincidental.
Sakura made her official debut back in 2011 as one of the original members of the popular Japanese girl group, HKT48. She quickly became one of the group's most prominent members, becoming the first ever HKT48 member to rank in AKB48's annual general elections.
In 2018, Sakura participated in the girl group survival program, Produce 48, where she ranked second overall. She put her activities with HKT48 on hold and went on to become a member of the project girl group, IZ*ONE. She promoted as a member of IZ*ONE for 2.5 years before the girl group disbanded in April 2021.

Sakura returned to Japan following the disbandment of IZ*ONE, with fans' assumption that she would go back to HKT48 and resume her activities with the group. However, with the continuing rumors and these leaked magazine photos, it seems that Sakura may be done with her Japanese idol life.
While the public speculates about Sakura's future, no official announcements have been made regarding Sakura's supposed HKT48 graduation.

How does one begin a blog? I have read many of them, and have enjoyed the content. Do I emulate the one's I like? Do I check google university with a "how to" question? Or do I just write and let it create itself. To be honest, I have typed that question into google in the recent past, and had a mixture of good advice and paid services pop up. The most noticeable advice that registers is "do not try to create a perfect first posting." Simple idea, hard to manifest as a perfectionist in my daily life. I imagine this feeling similar to many first time lifters and gym attendees, whom I have made similar "do not sweat it" comments to when I first began as a trainer. Beginning something new can create a large hurdle that seems taller than the first step required. So as I sit up late on a Sunday night, listening to 90's jams to keep the hope up, I just begin to write. One thing that becomes clear to me as I begin this process is the purpose of this blog, which is twofold: one, a means to give to our community, and two, improve our staff's abilities through a different creative process than just training.
1. Content regarding self-promotion will be kept to a minimum, the focus here is health promotion.
2. This will not be a forum for tearing down other training styles or philosophies, negativity is not a part of our culture at MASH, so it will not be a part of our postings.
3. We encourage questions and comments from our community.
4. We will publish content pertaining to how and why we do things.
5. We will leverage our network to provide opinions and content from other professionals in our field.
Five points make a fist, and we go by "knucks" in the gym, so I will stop there.
The type of content will intentionally change from articles, workout videos, and question/answer segments. Regardless of the type, the purpose will be to spread our training message and enrich those that find us a benefit to their lifestyle and training. We hope you enjoy! "We", will become more clear through the following weeks' introductions. You, the reader, should know more about us, since anyone can blog and tweet fitness-related content, knowing you are gaining insight from professionals in the trenches is important to us. I will shamelessly introduce myself first. Hey! What do you want? My biographer is too busy for pro-bono work, and who believes the story from a Father's eyes anyhow.
My name is Nate Stemper, I am a Strength Coach and assist running Mash Performance with partners Tom Buske and Steve McGuiggan. My journey into fitness began as a High School athlete when I decided I was going to start "getting huge," fueled by a desire, but no knowledge I clumsily made my way through the gym with the old big three every kid learns from his peer group: barbell bench press, back squat, and clean. I never took into account why my joints would ache more than my muscles after workouts at times. It was a part of getting strong, right? This attitude caught up with me eventually, and for the sake of sparing you the long-winded version, I would be in a high amount of pain following lifts by the time I was in college playing Football at a Division III level. It was not until I was in my last years as a Kinesiology major that I began understanding the why behind my pain: muscle imbalance and poor recovery strategies were winning over the years of intensity. My college strength coach knew what he was doing, but getting us stronger was the only priority set forth in his field, not making us feel better. With so many athletes to oversee, bad technique when over worked would be a norm for my college weight room experience. A worthy sacrifice when improving maxes and getting bigger for a sport that prizes that over all other things? If you have the genetics to sustain the pain, you will advance. Fair enough, but I wanted to seek an alternative viewpoint.
Graduating from UW-Eau Claire with a B.S. in Human Performance in 2009, I sought to change my field with a different approach. There were falls, scrapes, and bruised pride along the way, but I landed at Mash Performance in June of 2013 following positions in small and corporate gyms alike. Finally, in full control of all training and periodization models, we set-up a semi private training facility focused on technique and consistency over intensity and short-term programming camps. This philosophy was molded from many great professors and mentors along with personal experience from my own path and watching those I cared about suffer from poor health practices. I have lifted poorly, been injured and rehabbed, gotten stronger, lost strength, gained weight, lost weight, felt insecure, felt empowered, learned a lot, realized I know very little, and have loved every part of the journey. Today I run and operate a gym I love coming to, filled with a family of passionate co-workers and members alike. Everyone has a story and I will stop mine here, if you wish to hear more, I am an email away, and I would love to hear yours. Thanks for reading.
Emails can be sent to nate@mnmash.com. Next week's post will introduce co-owner/friend/overall stud Tom Buske in a Q & A format.

There are many factors that affect sound animal husbandry practices for beef cattle, both in confinement and on open range. Supplying adequate nutrition during the different production stages, along with a solid health program and facilities that handle cattle in a stress-free manner are essential management tools for efficient beef production.
Water is the most important nutrient in the realm of beef production. During the average day cattle will consume three-times as much water as they will dry matter. Cattle can live without some feed sources for a period of time, but they will die quickly due to lack of water.
Cattlemen providing sound animal husbandry through different levels of management may be doing it all for naught, if poor water quality is robbing their herd of performance and efficiency. According to Dr. Trey Patterson, South Dakota State University Beef Extension Specialist, Rapid City, South Dakota, high sulfate levels in both surface and subsurface water sources can impact performance and efficiency.
"The driver in most water quality problems is sulfates," Patterson says. "When we test the water and find high levels of sulfates, performance reductions in cattle are expected."
By ingesting amounts of sulfur that are above the tolerable level for beef cattle, Patterson says animals are affected in the following three ways:
1) High salts reduce water intake, in turn will reduce feed intake, which reduces overall performance.
2) Sulfur toxicity will lead to polioencaphalomalacia (PEM), a metabolic disorder (not contagious) causing neurological problems in cattle that can lead to death. Cattle go off feed, get depressed and lethargic, which eventually leads to blind staggers, paralysis and potentially death.
3) Sulfur interferes with the availability of copper. This could lead to a trace mineral deficiency and cause long-term problems such as decreased reproductive efficiency.
It seems poor water quality affects cattle in confinement differently than cattle on open range. Still, decreased performance will always take dollars out of the rancher's pocket.
"We saw a .4 pounds per day reduction in gain in confinement steers exposed to poor (sulfate levels at 3,000 parts per million) water and there were sporadic cases of PEM. When we increased sulfates to 4,500 parts per million it decreased gain by one pound per day in a dry lot situation," Patterson says. "Yearling steers on native range saw performance reduced by .2 to .6 pounds per day, with a few cases of PEM. Lost performance is expensive no matter how you look at it."
Sulfate levels impact cattle in diverse environments in different ways. According to research data, temperature seems to be a factor that inhibits performance and makes cattle susceptible to stress caused increased sulfate levels.
"With cattle on pasture, we do not see as much disease and the drop in performance is not quite as severe. Range cattle can handle moderate levels of sulfates in water at certain times of the year," Patterson says. "Temperature has a lot to do with it. Surface temperatures are hot in confinement situations compared with what they are in the pasture, and reduced water intake decreases cattle's ability to deal with elevated heat loads. There is also a fair amount of moisture available in the forages, particularly early in the summer."
Environmental conditions along with temperature can impact water quality. Once again, Mother Nature shows us she is in charge.
"If surface water is of marginal quality early on in periods of drought. By the end of the summer, it could be really dangerous," Patterson says. "Drought conditions condense the sulfates, which increases the problem."
As with any other production inhibitor, cattlemen must identify the problem before it can be managed. By testing water sources cattlemen will know if there is a problem with their water or not.
"There is a high correlation between the presence of salts and the water's ability to conduct electricity. If an electro-conductivity test reveals high salt levels, test the water to see if the salt content is sulfates," Patterson says. "Initially, producers should test all major water sources in early summer. Depending on the stage of production cattle are in and time of year, producers might be able to get some use out of marginal water."
If one water source on the ranch is contaminated, it does not mean all water sources have a problem. As producers begin testing water sources Patterson suggests identifying potential problematic sources and formulating a management plan to deal with the potential hazards.
"There is value in knowing what water quality is. Producers could have toxic water at one source, then go a mile away and have better water than the rural water system," Patterson says. "Summer is the most critical time because of temperature. If salts are present in a surface water source in early summer, test that same source in late summer to see if the salts have condensed. Marginal water sources need to be monitored every year."
By testing major water sources, cattlemen will have identified potential problems. If sulfur levels in marginal water do not reach toxic thresholds, grazing systems may be developed to take advantage of certain water sources during different stages of production.
"Build water quality into the management and grazing system to help provide cattle with adequate water needs during critical production times," Patterson says. "If you have marginal water quality, do not use it for high producing livestock, such as right before or during calving season. Use this water in periods when it is not too hot and consult with your veterinarian and a nutritionist when cattle are going to be exposed to bad water."
Some range cattle will still produce at expected levels with marginal water quality. However, other long- and short-term effects may be present, even noticeable in the cowherd. These effects will impact the cowherd differently year after year depending on the level of sulfates cows are drinking bad water.
"We exposed cows and calves to water that contained 2,600 parts per million sulfates," Patterson says. "Cows lost body condition, but there was no pronounced difference in weaning weight. The potential to lose cattle is always there, depending on water quality and the conditions under which they are exposed to it."
As cattlemen develop management plans to deal with water quality problems, each producer will identify lost profit potential associated with marginal/poor quality water. This plan will be incorporated into the management system to provide sound animal husbandry to the herd.
"Producers need to identify the potential problems and develop a plan to manage around it," Patterson says. "If producers can't manage around the poor water, then it is time to develop new water sources."
Although developing new water sources sounds like an expensive proposition, funds are available in a lot of states that will help producers make improvements.
"By checking with the local NRCS office, there are cost-share programs available for water development," Patterson says. "If producers are going to drill new wells, look at past well logs and water quality. There is also potential for some to tap into rural water systems."
Unlike most problems facing the beef industry, the answer to poor water quality cannot be found in a vaccine bottle or by changing the genetic makeup of the cowherd. This is a problem that is unique to each individual rancher and the resources available to manage it from year to year.
"Unfortunately, at this point, defining the problem is easier than the solution. Most solutions are extremely individual," Patterson says. "Awareness allows producers to begin to manage the problem."
