Home Vegetable Gardening in Kentucky [2016]

Every aspiring gardener should follow seven steps to have a successful gardening season: Plan your garden on paper before you begin. Select a good gardening site that is: a. in full sun for at least eight hours each day,b. relatively level, c. well‑drained, d. close to a water source, e. dries quickly from morning dew. Prepare the soil properly, conduct a soil test, and add fertilizer and lime according to U.K. test result recommendations. Plan only as large a garden as you can easily maintain. Beginning gardeners often overplant, and then they fail because they cannot keep up with the tasks required. Weeds and pests must be managed, water applied when needed and harvesting done on time. Grow vegetables that will produce the maximum amount of food in the space available. Plant during the correct season for the crop. Choose varieties recommended for Kentucky. Harvest vegetables at their proper stage of maturity. Store them promptly and properly if you do not use them immediately

Before You Begin Every aspiring gardener should follow seven steps to have a successful gardening season: Plan your garden on paper before you begin. Select a good gardening site that is: a. in full sun for at least eight hours each day, b. relatively level, c. well‑drained, d. close to a water source, e. not shaded. Prepare the soil properly and add fertilizer and lime according to soil test recommendations. Plan only as large a garden as you can easily maintain. Beginning gardeners often overplant, and then they fail because they cannot keep up with the tasks required. Weeds and pests must be controlled, water applied when needed and harvesting done on time. Vegetables harvested at their peak are tasty, but when left on the plants too long, the flavor is simply not there. Grow vegetables that will produce the maximum amount of food in the space available. Plant during the correct season for the crop. Choose varieties recommended for your area. Harvest vegetables at their proper stage of maturity. Store them promptly and properly if you do not use them immediately

Experimental active control of a typical section using a trailing-edge flap

This paper presents an experimental implementation of an active control system used to suppress flutter in a typical section airfoil. The H2 optimal control system design is based on experimental system identifications of the transfer functions between three measured system variables - pitch, plunge, and flap position - and a single control signal that commands the flap of the airfoil. Closed-loop response of the airfoil demonstrated gust alleviation below the open-loop flutter boundary. In addition, the flutter boundary was extended by 12.4% through the application of active control. Cursory robustness tests demonstrate stable control for variations in flow speed of ± 10%

Acoustic Telemetry Studies of Juvenile Chinook Salmon Survival at the Lower Columbia Projects in 2006

The Portland District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers contracted with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to conduct three studies using acoustic telemetry to estimate detection probabilities and survival of juvenile Chinook salmon at three hydropower projects on the lower Columbia River. The primary goals were to estimate detection and survival probabilities based on sampling with JSATS equipment, assess the feasibility of using JSATS for survival studies, and estimate sample sizes needed to obtain a desired level of precision in future studies. The 2006 JSATS arrays usually performed as well or better than radio telemetry arrays in the JDA and TDA tailwaters, and underperformed radio arrays in the BON tailwater, particularly in spring. Most of the probabilities of detection on at least one of all arrays in a tailwater exceeded 80% for each method, which was sufficient to provide confidence in survival estimates. The probability of detection on one of three arrays includes survival and detection probabilities because fish may die or pass all three arrays undetected but alive

Survival of Juvenile Chinook Salmon Passing the Bonneville Dam Spillway in 2007

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District (CENWP) funds numerous evaluations of fish passage and survival on the Columbia River. In 2007, the CENWP asked Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to conduct an acoustic telemetry study to estimate the survival of juvenile Chinook salmon passing the spillway at Bonneville Dam. This report documents the study results which are intended to be used to improve the conditions juvenile anadromous fish experience when passing through the dams that the Corps operates on the river

Film remakes, the black sheep of translation

Film remakes have often been neglected by translation studies in favour of other forms of audiovisual translation such as subtitling and dubbing. Yet, as this article will argue, remakes are also a form of cinematic translation. Beginning with a survey of previous, ambivalent approaches to the status of remakes, it proposes that remakes are multimodal, adaptive translations: they translate the many modes of the film being remade and offer a reworking of that source text. The multimodal nature of remakes is explored through a reading of Breathless, Jim McBride's 1983 remake of Jean-Luc Godard's À bout de souffle (1959), which shows how remade films may repeat the narrative of, but differ on multiple levels from, their source films. Due to the collaborative nature of film production, remakes involve multiple agents of translation. As such, remakes offer an expanded understanding of audiovisual translation

Mapping the Steroid Response to Major Trauma From Injury to Recovery : A Prospective Cohort Study

CONTEXT: Survival rates after severe injury are improving, but complication rates and outcomes are variable. OBJECTIVE: This cohort study addressed the lack of longitudinal data on the steroid response to major trauma and during recovery. DESIGN: We undertook a prospective, observational cohort study from time of injury to 6 months postinjury at a major UK trauma centre and a military rehabilitation unit, studying patients within 24 hours of major trauma (estimated New Injury Severity Score (NISS) > 15). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: We measured adrenal and gonadal steroids in serum and 24-hour urine by mass spectrometry, assessed muscle loss by ultrasound and nitrogen excretion, and recorded clinical outcomes (ventilator days, length of hospital stay, opioid use, incidence of organ dysfunction, and sepsis); results were analyzed by generalized mixed-effect linear models. FINDINGS: We screened 996 multiple injured adults, approached 106, and recruited 95 eligible patients; 87 survived. We analyzed all male survivors <50 years not treated with steroids (N = 60; median age 27 [interquartile range 24-31] years; median NISS 34 [29-44]). Urinary nitrogen excretion and muscle loss peaked after 1 and 6 weeks, respectively. Serum testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate decreased immediately after trauma and took 2, 4, and more than 6 months, respectively, to recover; opioid treatment delayed dehydroepiandrosterone recovery in a dose-dependent fashion. Androgens and precursors correlated with SOFA score and probability of sepsis. CONCLUSION: The catabolic response to severe injury was accompanied by acute and sustained androgen suppression. Whether androgen supplementation improves health outcomes after major trauma requires further investigation
