...suitable for pure hay or silage, or with legumes for pasture. DO NOT use in mixtures with legumes for hay or silage. Medium/late maturing varieties do well when combined with legumes for hay, silage, or pasture.. Later maturing varieties are best to grow with alfalfa. Common orchard grass is NOT a variety, its maturity unknown but it generally heads earlier than named varieties. It is for general use, but should not be mixed with legumes for hay or silage. Orchardgrass should not be seeded with other grasses because of differences in maturity and palatability. Table 2. Seeding rates for timothy and a single legume in mixture. Species lb/A Timothy 2–6 with any one of these legume Alfalfa 8–10 Birdsfoot trefoil 6–8 Red clover 6–8 White clover 2–4 Potomac is an early maturing variety (early May), Dawn and Rancho are medium-maturing varieties (mid-to late-May), and Pennlate is a late-maturing variety (late May to early June). When seeding an orchardgrass-legume mixture, the two should mature at about the same time. This will enable harvesting of both species at proper developmental stages and improve the potential of harvesting top quality forage. However, because it becomes coarse and less palatable as it matures, it is best suited for pastures. The rapid decline in palatability and quality as orchardgrass matures is the major deterrent to its use. Orchardgrass requires careful management to ensure that it is harvested promptly. Orchardgrass responds well to nitrogen...

...“A bestfriend is like a four-leaf clover: Hard to find and lucky to have.” It is difficult to find someone who will love you, even if you’re the worst person alive. A bestfriend is someone who will never leave your side when the whole world turn its back on you. They accept, not only, your good side but also your flaws and imperfection. To have a true friend is rare achievement now a days. Now, if you have one then you’re a lucky person. And I guess, I’m one of them. In my case, my bestfriend is my own cousin. She is, in a way, similar to me but also different at the same time. To start with, we are alike in the sense that we talk a lot about things that none of our friends are interested in, like instagram, blogs and youtubes. But somehow different when it comes to the types, she wants a colorful instagram feed and blog while i prefer black and white. Dressing up is both our hobby. Although, I was never into leggings and pants like my her but instead I wear shorts and dresses. Another reason is, both of us are single for we are now scared to get our hearts tore into pieces again, just like what happen with our last relationship. Though, I’m still considering of having a boyfriend, i hope, in the near future unlike her who kinda became of a “man-hater” that doesn’t like boys at all. In terms of attitude, me and my bestfriend mostly had differences than similarities. We always think before we react on a certain situation or dilemma. However, when it comes to handling those,...

...Waukegan, Illinois and the Outboard Marine Corporation From the 1940s until the mid 1970s, the Outboard Marine Corporation was the economic heart and soul of a bustling northern suburb town of Waukegan. Employing more than 5,000 workers at its peak and O.M.C was unchallenged in the community and O.M.C was allowed to do whatever they wanted as long as they continue to bring in prosperity to Waukegan. What they were allowed to do was dump millions of gallons to toxic sludge into lake Michigan, sludge containing Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB), Arsenic, Polycylic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Ammonia, Benzene and Trichloroethylene toxins. Waukegan Harbor became the Chenobol of the Midwest when this appaling act of polluting was discovered in the 1970s. Waukegan, a city that sits north of Chicago, Chicago, a city that depends on lake Michigan for drinking water, for over 20 years millions of people where exposed to these toxins from the act of one corporation. Arsenic, PCB has been associated with causing skin, breast, bladder, lung and kidney disease, Hydrocarbons can cause lung, skin, leukemia, breast, throat and larynx cancers. The Environmental Protection Agency declared in 1993 that the site was mostly cleaned, mostly because the site still contained contaminated deep underwater deposits of toxins and by this time all the clean up was funded by taxpayers, The United State E.P.A Superfund. O.M.C closed their doors for good in the year 2000, the huge plant sitting on a 1,000...

...Dear Charles, I am writing you in response to your concerns about the market test on the new cups and carriers Clover Valley Dairy Company is introducing to the consumer. I appreciate your suggestions and have definitely considered them. The purpose of the research is the see how the new packaging is accepted by the consumer and if it is worth it to move to the new six (6) container holder. Number one, I definitely agree that the multipack carriers should be tested and should be tested in other outlets that are not competing with us, but also our markets that are our competitors. I say this because I feel that we should include our competitor’s customer’s views as well as our non-competitor customer views for comparison. If we only use non competing stores, we will not get a full picture of what will really sell well and what will not. I suggest that we limit I competitors so that we will not go over budget, but definitely include them. If a test is judged necessary, what should be the criteria for success or failure? The main factor should be how sales are impacted. Often time’s sales can increase just by the look of a package for an item. If the packaging is appealing customers will buy just by the look. There have been surveys done on appearance of products and what target consumer. It was discovered from the test that if the item is geared towards women and the packaging was nice, they would be the customer who would purchase the item. I feel...

Clover was depicted by the author as a ghost town where hardly any signs of life were active, only for the few businesses, churches, and a post office that operated. It’s quoted “The other businesses looked like someone left for lunch decades earlier and never bothered coming back:” another reference “Clover didn’t have enough death to keep an undertaker in business: in 1974 it had a population of 227; in 1998 it was 198.

Decision of the Facts In 1977 Minnesota legislature a statue of banning the retail sale of milk in plastic cartons to control the solid waste arguing that plastic containers take up more space in waste disposal dumps. The case was brought to the Minnesota Supreme court and found evidence to the contrary. They found out that the jugs took up more space than the plastic cartons in a land fill. Statement and Discussion of the Legal Issues in Dispute The legal statue that is being debated in this case is whether the Minnesota statue that was passed in 1977 is unconstitutional even though it has been proven that the jugs take up more space in a landfill. The statue actually permits the sale of these products even though they take up less space and use less energy to produce. The issue is also to decide if this statue is still rational based on the new information that has been provided obviously showing that the information on trash disposal is incorrect.

...November 5, 1978 Camden, New Jersey Clover Valley Dairy Company Dear Charles, I am writing to you in response to your concerns regarding the market test on the new cups and carriers that Clover Valley is introducing to the customer. The purpose of this research is to see if the new packaging is worth the change and if the consumer will accept the new change. It will also tell us if the new six container holder will be effective. I do agree that the new carrier should be tested and it should be tested in other areas that are not our competitors. I also believe that it should be in our market as well as our competitors. One of the most important parts of testing a new product or design should always start with our competitors in mind. Knowing what our competitors are offering and how well it is accepted by the consumer should be the basis of our decision of even deciding if it should be tested and tried. Knowing our market and what is out there gives us a good lead on how to impact our consumers in a good way. This leads to why we should consider and include our competitor’s customer views as well as our non-competitor customer views just for comparison. By not including our non-competing stores, we are only hindering our abilities to fully see what will really sell and what won’t sell. May I suggest that we only limit to one competitor? This will give us more money for our budget and we won’t be throwing all our money into several competitors’ when only one will give us what...

...“conformist like Clover in Animal Farm” means to do the societal norm or to be doing things similar to what everyone else is doing. It’s similar to bandwagon propaganda, which tries to get the intended audience to do things that everyone is doing by using celebrities, motivational speakers, and even local celebrities. It’s basically like following the latest trends or just simply complying with laws and rules of where you live. To not conform or to be a “nonconformist like Martin Luther King” has a pretty similar concept but is totally different. To not conform means to do things different than what is considered normal or average. It’s also the failure to comply with rules, regulations, or in some cases laws....

...Carbohydrates Doina Golub DeVry University Stevia Stevia is a sweetener and sugar substitute extracted from the leaves of the plant species Stevia Rebaudiana. Stevia was discovered about 1500 years ago by the people of Paraguay, South America, when they used to crush a few of the sweet leaves for their hot mate tea. In 1887, Dr. Moises Santiago Bertoni started studying the “very strange plant” as described by the locals. Dr. Bertoni named the plant Stevia Rebaudiana in honor of a chemist Rebaudi, who identified the plant’s sweetness component. The first crop of stevia was harvested in 1908, but it wasn’t until 1931that stevia became more commercially available when two French chemist isolate stevioside, the pure white crystalline extract that gives stevia its super sweet taste. Later on, the Japanese government highly regulated chemical additives to their food supply and once stevia established its safety, Japan became one of the first countries to use stevia on a large scale commercially. In United Stated, FDA banned all imports of stevia at first because of the newly-presented Naturasweet and Equal sweeteners on the market but Stevia gained its popularity once more doctors recognized its health benefits; two and a half years later FDA approved stevia as a dietary supplement. They needed extensive research in order to establish that Stevia is safe to use as an additive for food and beverages. The active compounds of stevia are stevioside and rebaudioside, which have up...

...wife Mary. What made John so special was his absurd amount of luck. He was considered the “luckiest man to live on planet earth”. He was famous because of his ability to find a four leaf clover wherever and whenever he desired, whether he was on a vacation in Spain or planting trees at a farm. One day he was hiking up in the mountains by himself because he needed some personal and peaceful time to himself. He was looking on the ground thinking about the humongous amount of taxes he had to pay, as he was walking, he spotted a five leaf clover. Just as he spotted the clover, it started to drizzle.

...Preamble Corporate social responsibility: a personal reflection on Clover Mama Afrika E. Vlok & E.M. Kloppers School for Communication Studies Potchefstroom Campus North-West University POTCHEFSTROOM E-mail: Elbe.Kloppers@nwu.ac.za Elain.Vlok@clover.co.za Although corporate social responsibility (CSR) or corporate social investment (CSI), the term preferred by most South African businesses, has been studied from the 1950s, up to date no universally accepted definition has been formulated. However, the basic concepts put forward in the definition of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) (2000) are generally accepted as forming the core of CSR. This definition explains that CSR is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families, as well as of the local community and society at large. The South African government’s definition of CSR as proposed in the Draft Codes of Good Practice on Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (2005) is closely related to the WBCSD’s definition. It states that social investment (as it is referred to in the document) is “an enterprise’s contributions to society and community that are extraneous to its regular business activities” (Department of Trade and Industry, 2005). This definition furthermore emphasises development as the outcome of CSR and that local communities should be the main beneficiaries of these...

The halls of the house are also dark and the home is equipped with its own kill room with meat hooks, weapons, and a giant freezer to keep the meat fresh. Marilyn Burns, who plays Sally, described the home in an interview as, “it was just like just like the family should live there… You felt uncomfortable, itchy, you didn’t want to touch anything” (Texas Chain Saw Massacre: The Shocking Truth). Although she knew it was just a set its made her so uncomfortable to even be in the room because the decor seemed all too real. The home seems so aesthetically real that it easily cause fear and discomfort in the spectators. Clover explains that the terrible place “may at first seem a safe haven, but the same wall that promise to keep the out...
