A man who saw a medical helicopter crash into a field near Kingfisher Thursday night told federal investigators the aircraft was "descending in an abnormal fashion" before it hit the ground and burst into flames, killing two of three people on board.
"His testimony was that it appeared to be out of control," National Transportation Safety Board investigator Jason Aguilera told reporters Friday afternoon.
The helicopter was flying from Integris Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City to Okeene Hospital to pick up a patient when it crashed shortly before 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
"An eyewitness spotted the helicopter descending in an abnormal fashion," Aguilera said.
Pilot Alan Dale Harrison, 56, of Edmond, and nurse Ryan Marshall Duke, 35, of Oklahoma City, died in the crash, according to a statement issued Friday by EagleMed LLC, the Wichita, Kan.-based company that operates the A-Star 350 helicopter.
Paramedic Michael Eccard, 34, of Edmond, survived the crash and was in serious condition at University of Oklahoma Medical Center in Oklahoma City, hospital spokesman Allen Poston said.
According to an Oklahoma Highway Patrol report, the eyewitness reported at 7:25 p.m. the helicopter was "rotating out of control and went down."
Kingfisher Mayor Jack Stuteville said he arrived at the scene not long after the crash after a farmer told him he saw the helicopter spinning and then crash into the remote field, about 50 miles northwest of Oklahoma City.
"By the time I got there it was already burned to pieces," Stuteville said. "The bodies were charred beyond recognition. It was bad."
He saw Eccard about 50 yards from the crash site.
"I still don't know how he did it. He must have bailed out just before it hit the ground ... there was no way he could have crawled that far," Stuteville said.
Stuteville said Eccard was conscious and talking when an ambulance crew arrived and he showed no obvious signs of burn injuries.
On Friday, OHP troopers barred access to the crash site so investigators could gather evidence. The investigation initially will focus on the pilot's flight records, maintenance records of the helicopter and weather conditions at the time, Aguilera said.
Oklahoma Climatological Survey's Mesonet site near Kingfisher showed wind gusts of 30-35 mph near the time of the crash.
"We can start eliminating what did not happen so we can come up with a probable cause," he said.
It will be between six and nine months before an initial report on the crash is prepared by NTSB, Aguilera said. Findings will be compared to other crashes of similar helicopters to determine if there is a trend.
Members of Federal Aviation Administration also were contacted after the crash.
"The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the crash because it is a fatality accident and the FAA will be part of that team," said Lynn Lunsford, an FAA spokesman for Southwest Regional Operations Center in Fort Worth.
Aguilera said EagleMed's safety record also will be reviewed as part of the investigation.
A spokesman for the helicopter's manufacturer, Eurocopter, with headquarters in France and American offices in Grand Prairie, Texas, did not return phone calls seeking comment.
Staff writer Cass Rains and The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Loraine Gonzales played basketball in high school and had an opportunity to play collegiately, but several knee surgeries and resulting complications led to the amputation of her right leg.
During her recovery, Gonzales was watching television and saw Chantal Benoit, a women's wheelchair basketball player from Canada. After that, she decided to find a local team with which she could play.
Gonzales made her international debut at the 2007 Parapan American Games and proved to be a major asset on the inside for the U.S., averaging 17 points and eight rebounds over six games on the way to a gold medal. Her presence in the post was valuable at the 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, where the U.S. Paralympic Women's Wheelchair Basketball Team won its second consecutive gold medal.
Gonzales' husband, David, also plays wheelchair basketball. She is certified in medical coding and billing and has recently been working with children with disabilities. She enjoys spending time with her husband and two children, music and playing all kinds of games.

By now almost every person in America knows about I.C.E., In Case of Emergency. The Connecticut Epilepsy Advocate constantly encourages people to have a detailed I.C.E. sheet and we even offer to make them for people living with Epilepsy.
Your I.C.E. sheet should have detailed information about you and your medical condition, your medication, your doctors and of course your I.C.E. contacts. We recommend you have three or four people on that list. We also tell people they should have it mounted where is can be seen when an EMT or fire fighter or police officer can see is when they walk in your front door. One should also be on your refrigerator and in your travel bag.
As simple as it is an I.C.E. sheet is essential to any person with any medical condition and we recommend that you have one everywhere we mentioned.
Once again if you have Epilepsy and need help with designing an I.C.E. sheet please contact us and we will gladly help you.

I-70 ramp to close
The westbound on-ramp to Interstate 70 from Indiana 59 south of Brazil will be closed for resurfacing most of Monday, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation.
The ramp will close at 6 a.m. and reopen by 9 a.m., INDOT said.
The closure is part of a patch-and-resurface project from Indiana 46/U.S. 40 in Terre Haute to Indiana 59. The project, awarded to Wabash Valley Asphalt for $9.9 million, is scheduled for completion on June 30, 2013.

Samantha Way of Beverly had a terrific performance at the 30th annual Ice Skating Institutes World Team Championships recently at the New England Sports Center in Marlborough.
Taking part in a competition that featured over 1,400 skaters from across the United States and three foreign countries, Samantha — who will be an eighth grader at the Briscoe Middle School in Beverly this fall — captured two gold medals and one silver.
A member of the Cape Ann Figure Skating Club, Samantha beat out seven other competitors to win gold in her artistic program, skating to Barbra Streisand's version of "Somewhere." Later that day, she skated her freestyle program to "Phantom of the Opera" and again earned gold by beating out nine other competitors.
Samantha's silver medal was earned along with her sister, Kimberly, as they duo skated to "Me and My Shadow".
Both of Samantha's programs were choreographed by her head coach, Faye Greel, Samantha is also coached by Alisa Contreras.
Previously, Samantha had earned a bronze medal for her "Phantom of the Opera" program in January at the Bay State Games in Williamstown. That medal qualified her to skate next summer in the State Games of America held in San Diego.

A bipartisan bill that would reduce the costs of borrowing for millions of students passed the House on Wednesday and was heading to President Barack Obama for his signature.
The legislation links student loan interest rates to the financial markets, offering lower rates for most students now but higher ones down the line if the economy improves as expected. Even as they were preparing to pass the bill, many lawmakers were already talking about a broader overhaul of the nation's colleges to curb fast-climbing costs.
"This is a win for students and taxpayers," said Rep. John Kline, the Republican chairman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce.
The top Democrat on that committee joined Kline on the House floor to urge colleagues to back the bill.
"It saves students and families money," said Rep. George Miller, D-Calif.
Undergraduates this fall would borrow at a 3.9 percent interest rate for subsidized and unsubsidized loans. Graduate students would have access to loans at 5.4 percent, and parents would borrow at 6.4 percent. The rates would be locked in for that year's loan, but each year's loan could be more expensive than the last. Rates would rise as the economy picks up and it becomes more expensive for the government to borrow money.
But for now, interest payments for tuition, housing and books would be less expensive under the House-passed bill.
The House earlier this year passed legislation that is similar to what the Senate later passed. Both versions link interest rates to 10-year Treasury notes and remove Congress' annual role in determining rates.
"Campaign promises and political posturing should not play a role in the setting of student loan interest rates," said Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C. "Borrowers deserve better."
Negotiators of the Senate compromise were mindful of the House-passed version, as well as the White House preference to shift responsibility for interest rates to the financial markets. The resulting bipartisan bill passed the Senate 81-18.

Spartans rally past Ashe 6-2 to advance in softball playoffs
Sat. May 11, 2013 at 12:30 a.m. | By Bruce Wehrle

Sometimes the outcome of a softball game can turn on the smallest of things: a funny bounce, a seeing-eye single or even a ball taking a misdirected glance off a fielder's glove.
Central Davidson's softball team took advantage of the latter scenario on the way to a 6-2 victory over Ashe County in the first round of the state 2-A playoffs Friday night.
With two outs and the score tied 2-2 in the bottom of the fifth inning and Hunter Brown on second and Mckenzie Burkhart on first, Morgan Roach came through with a hard grounder up the middle.
The ball caromed off the glove of Husky pitcher Brianna McCoy and headed toward shortstop Mackensie Shetley, who charged the ball. In doing so, she briefly got tangled up with Brown, and ultimately, all runners were safe to load the bases.
Ashe County coach Bill Key briefly argued for runner interference on the play, but the glancing touch off McCoy's glove eliminated any potential interference call.
Then Jack Byrd, Central's next hitter, worked a full count before slashing a sinking liner to center field that drove in two runs. The sharply hit ball was then misplayed by center fielder Sloan Elliott, allowing Byrd to take second while a third run scored.
Then Mackenzie Comer came through with another RBI single. Just like that, Central was up 6-2 to break open a tight game.
"That was a big play," said Central coach Jordan Stogner. "If it had been hit straight to the shortstop without glancing off the pitcher, it would have been interference. It really opened up the gates for us.
"We also did a good job base running, too," said Stogner, whose team is now 13-11 overall and will travel to Cuthbertson next week for the second round. Cuthbertson defeated Trinity 10-0 Friday night to advance.
Ashe County took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Elliott opened with a single off pitcher Kylie Ward. A stolen base and a sacrifice bunt moved her to third and then she scored on a sacrifice fly to center.
Central broke through with a pair of runs in the third when Erin Laws singled and Burkhart reached on a fielder's choice. Both runners then scored on a two-out bloop single to center by Roach for a 2-1 lead.
Ashe County tied the game with a run in the fifth on doubles by Makenzi Wallace and Chelsea Reavis.
But the Huskies were for the most part held in check by Ward, who pitched five strong innings, with two more solid innings of relief from Comer.
"We had a great duo there tonight from Kylie and Mackenzie," said Stogner.
The hitting wasn't bad, either. The Spartans banged out eight hits in the game, none bigger than Byrd's blast.
"We've improved our hitting so much every day in practice," said Stogner. "It's really starting to show. It's all hard work by them."
Notes: Ashe County ended its season at 6-12 … Laws was 2-for-2 while Roach was 2-for-3 … Ward struck out six batters while allowing just three hits.

Comments about Squier Affinity Stratocaster Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard:
I've had bad experiences with squier in the past, but I'd like to say that this was not one of them. This guitar easily merits a price tag triple what it has. It's smooth to play, and has an amazing finish. I can bear the squier logo proudly.
For the cons:
Bad stock strings - They can be replaced easily so it's no big deal.
Poor factory intonation - Another simple fix, nothing worth skipping this for.
The little hole that you put the whammy bar into smells REALLY bad, so I don't recommend getting to close to it unless you hold your breath. Honestly though, if you find yourself in a situation where your nose is continually getting that close to the bridge, you might need to reconsider some life choices. Other than that, the thing is nearly flawless.

Comments about Squier Affinity Stratocaster Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard:
I can review this guitar with just five words UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE. The fit and finish of this guitar are every bit as good as a Mexican Strat, and the neck and frets are better! The Surf Green finish is flawless. As soon as I received it,I already had my files out to get ready to dress the fret ends,like I have to do on a Mexican Strat,but I didn't even need to,they were perfect! The pups are a little bright, but you can always roll the tone off,easier to take it out than put it in. I was thinking of sanding off the Affinity and Squire decals from the headstock, but I'm going to keep them on because I want people to know how good these guitars are. The Chinese have guitar building down to a science. Yep, they beat us once again.

Comments about Squier Affinity Stratocaster Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard:
I bought my Affinity Strat in 2006 and I have always liked it. I am a big Eric Clapton fan so a SSS Stratocaster was a must for me. I was 17 and broke so the Squier was the most affordable option and I have gigged hard ever since with it but it has just kept on plugging. It's got good tone and plays fairly easily. The pickups are not as high output as many Fender vintage noiseless but if you want a guitar to put hotrod pickups and any other custom touches too...this one is affordable and perfect. Mine has NEVER disappointed me so if you want an affordable strat then look no further. Perfect first electric and gigging guitar for the seasoned player alike
Best Uses
Comments about Squier Affinity Stratocaster Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard:
This was a very well built Squier, absolutely nothing on it to fix. I bought it in order to finally have a Fender based Shell Pink guitar, the color is good but not what old pics of shell pink had me expecting - I still wouldn't give it up though because it is a subtle pink that looks nice.

Comments about Squier Affinity Stratocaster Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard:
What a beautiful color guitar. This makes a great gift for a budding guitarist friend of mine. Her favorite color is Purple.I have adjusted all the action and intonation as well as check the neck alignment before I present it to her. I do not want to let it go. I am sure updated pickups would make it sound like its American Standards Brother! The quality and sound as well as the way it plays is fantastic for the price. I would recommend this quality guitar to anyone, novice or professional.

UPDATE: Thursday, January 10, 2013
Hawker Beechcraft has confirmed they are initiating a rolling furlough in Wichita.
The furlough will impact the company's T-6/AT-6 production line, which affects approximately 240 hourly employees. The furloughs will be scheduled throughout the year, with the first later this month.
The company said they continue to build and deliver T-6 planes to the U.S. Government as part of a contract.
Wednesday, January 9, 2013
Some plant workers at Hawker Beechcraft will hear about furloughs as early as tomorrow.
Sources tell KAKE aviation reporter Chris Frank there could be as many as 240 hourly employees put on furlough for a period of two to three weeks.
Under a furlough, a worker is still considered an employee but not
coming to work or being paid. They still have access to benefits.
The furloughs will most likely affect workers on the J-PATS program, the trainer aircraft built for the Air Force and Navy.
There is no confirmation from Hawker Beechcraft.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.

WASHINGTON — Americans in a large patchwork of states will file into voting booths and caucuses on Tuesday in the closest thing the country has ever had to a national presidential primary.
The rules differ from state to state and party to party. (Democratic rules provide for delegates to be awarded proportionately on the basis of the popular vote; nine of the Republican contests are winner-take-all. Some contests are not open to independents.) But the combined outcomes could go a long way to determining the nominees, if not in fact effectively ending the races.
On the GOP side, Arizona Sen. John McCain, coming off a crucial Florida win, hopes to roll his current momentum into an irresistible force that overwhelms former Govs. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Mike Huckabee of Arkansas.
On the Democratic side, Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York and Barack Obama of Illinois are looking for momentum-grabbing wins in what is now a two-candidate battle. And both campaigns are aggressively pursuing voters and activists who were aligned with former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards.
Here's a look at some key contests and a glance at some of the latest polling (but surveys aren't elections, and things can change quickly):
GOP: Most-recent poll shows southerner Huckabee with an edge over McCain, and nobody else even close.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton has led in polls for more than a year. But in the most-recent poll, she had only a slight lead over Obama. The state has a large black population, 26.3 percent, which could help Obama.
GOP: Look for big home-state win for McCain.
DEMOCRATS: Most-recent polling shows Clinton leading Obama. This is one of the states that Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy will campaign in for Obama in an effort to appeal to Hispanics, 29 percent of Arizona's population. Obama also has the support of Gov. Janet Napolitano.
GOP: Home-state win is likely on tap for Huckabee, the state's former 10-year governor.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton, the state's former first lady, leads in all polls by margins of at least 20 percent.
GOP: One of the Super Tuesday big kahunas that could help make it a big day for McCain. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's endorsement of McCain will help him.
DEMOCRATS: A new Rasmussen poll shows Obama closing on Clinton. California is another state where Kennedy will be used to appeal to Hispanics, 39 percent of the state's population.
GOP: One of few Super Tuesday states where polls show Romney in the lead.
DEMOCRATS: This is one of the few Super Tuesday states in which Obama has led slightly in recent polls. Colorado is one of the states the Democratic Party is targeting in the fall election, in part because of its 19.7 percent Hispanic population and the Democratic trend in recent state elections.
GOP: Seems headed for big win for McCain, who could get a boost from Rudy Giuliani's endorsement.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton had long led the polls there, but a new Rasmussen poll showed her tied with Obama.
GOP: Huckabee is counting on a Southern win but recent polls show McCain momentum and Romney in striking distance, with Huckabee trailing.
DEMOCRATS: Recent polls show Obama with a lead over Clinton. A Public Policy Polling survey shows Obama getting 73 percent of the state's black vote but trailing Clinton among white voters.
GOP: Heavy Mormon population could help Romney.
DEMOCRATS: The latest polls show Obama with a slight lead over Clinton. But one in five Democrats are undecided, and 15 percent backed Edwards before he dropped out.
GOP: Most recent poll has McCain at 31 percent and Romney second at 20 percent.
DEMOCRATS: Obama has a commanding lead over Clinton in his home state.
DEMOCRATS: Obama's campaign is confident about his chances of winning. He is the son of an African father and a white mother from Kansas. Recently endorsed by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
GOP: Should be a home-turf win for former Massachusetts governor Romney.
DEMOCRATS: Kennedy's endorsement of Obama is likely to enhance the Illinois senator's chances. Prior to the Kennedy endorsement, Obama trailed Clinton, but the most recent polls show Clinton's lead shrinking.
GOP: No recent polling data.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton has a comfortable lead in recent polls. But Minnesota is one of the states Obama plans to visit before the voting Tuesday.
GOP: Recent poll gave McCain a lead over Huckabee, who is counting on evangelical Christians.
DEMOCRATS: This is one of the states the Clinton campaign has targeted. Clinton has been leading in polls, but Obama has the backing of Sen. Claire McCaskill, a popular figure in her home state.
GOP: Mid-December poll showed bunched pack with Huckabee, Giuliani, Romney and Thompson, in that order, within four points of each other. McCain was fifth, but expect a reshuffling with Thompson and Giuliani gone.
GOP: A state where Giuliani's withdrawal could have a major impact. Three January polls showed he was a real contender.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton is leading in most polls. She also has the backing of Gov. Jon Corzine and Sen. Bob Menendez. Hispanic voting will be important in New Jersey, where the Latino population is 15.6 percent. But so will the votes of African-Americans, who make up 14.5 percent of the state's population.
DEMOCRATS: New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, who served in the Clinton Cabinet, is under pressure to endorse Clinton. Hispanic votes are the key. Forty-four percent of the state's population is Latino.
GOP: Surveys indicate a potential big win for McCain. He led in three of four January polls, with Giuliani second in each.
DEMOCRATS: This is a chance for Clinton to pile up delegates with a big win in her home state. But analysts will look post-Super Tuesday to see how well Obama did in his rival's home state.
GOP: Huckabee is counting on an Oklahoma win. A mid-December poll gave him solid lead on second-place McCain.
DEMOCRATS: Clinton has been the leader in polls for months. In those polls, however, Edwards typically ran third, and winning over his supporters could boost Obama. It also would be a test of how well Obama can do with white voters. The state is 72.1 percent white.
GOP: Former home-state Sen. Thompson had a one-point edge on Huckabee prior to dropping out. Huckabee now is the favorite but recent polls showed McCain momentum.
DEMOCRATS: The latest polls show Clinton leading Obama. Former Vice President Al Gore's endorsement would boost either candidate, but so far, Gore has avoided taking sides, even for the wife of the man he served as vice president.
GOP: Romney is a prohibitive favorite in this heavily Mormon state.
DEMOCRATS: Recent polls show Clinton leading Obama.

Given two recent Baltimore County Public Schools gun incidents, school system officials aren't surprised the community is on edge. But they urge caution against taking stock in unsubstantiated rumors.
"People need to be aware that we're aware of what's going on out there," said Charles Herndon, a school system spokesman. "We're living in the information age, so there's a lot of information out there but that doesn't mean all of it's accurate."
As first reported by , Lansdowne Middle School was evacuated for about 15 to 20 minutes Thursday morning following a bomb threat. Police investigated the threat after Lansdowne school staff notified the school's system main office.
"We will take every threat seriously," Herndon said.
Additionally, rumors about a gun at Dundalk and Kenwood high schools circulated through social media Thursday. Since the gun incidents, county officials have asked the public to report any comments on social media that hint at violence in schools. Herndon said investigation revealed no truth to these claims, and students were not evacuated.
"A lot of time people see Facebook posts in the nature of 'I heard from a friend that has a brother at Catonsville High,' and it spreads" he said, referring to initial false reports that stated a in Catonsville happened at the high school.
The school year got off to a somber start for the Baltimore County Public Schools community after a special needs student was seriously injured in a late-August . Two weeks later, a 13-year-old eighth grade student with a gun at Stemmers Run Middle School on Tuesday.
"We understand that after such incidents people will be particularly vigilant," Herndon said.

Breeders often talk about inbreeding and outcrossing as though they were the only possibilities - and generally with negative comments about the latter. There are others, and I have long been a proponent of assortative mating. It is not a theoretical concept that doesn't work in practice; I know several breeders who do it an achieve good results. This essay will attempt to explain why it is a good idea -- but first I need to define some other terms.
Random mating. Though not a common breeding practice, understanding what this implies is important. Random mating is exactly what the name implies. Mates are chosen with no regard for similarity or relatedness (if the population is inbred to some extent, mates may be related).
Random mating is one of the assumptions behind the Hardy-Weinberg formula that allows one to calculate the frequency of heterozygous carriers from the frequency of individuals expressing some recessive trait in a population. Because inbreeding among purebred dogs and in other small populations decreases the frequency of heterozygotes, these estimates may be higher than the actual incidence.
Inbreeding is the mating of two individuals who share a common ancestor. (Sometimes it is defined as the mating of two individuals who share a greater common ancestry than the average for the population. However, I regard that as unfair.)
Because the number of ancestors potentially doubles every generation you go back in a pedigree, you eventually get to a point, even in a very large population, where there are simply not enough ancestors. Thus, all populations are inbred to some degree. A maximum number of ancestors - the "effective population size" - is reached in some past generation. This number will be governed by various factors such as the total population size, how far individuals travel during their lifetime and whether there are inbreeding taboos or other mechanisms that reduce the likelihood of close relatives mating.
Inbreeding, by itself, does not lead to a change in allele frequencies, but increases the proportion of homozygotes. Thus, in the absence of other practices, it will lead to a higher proportion of individuals homozygous for deleterious genes and these are likely to be lost by natural selection (they do not survive to reproductive age) or their removal from the breeding pool by man.
Studies in many species suggest that the resulting population is not healthier as a result and suggests that a certain amount of heterozygosity may be desirable.
Line-breeding is merely a term used for a particular type of inbreeding. An example of inbreeding would be the mating of full sibs or double first cousins. One is doubling up on two ancestors equally. More often there is one ancestor who is considered exceptional and, particularly if it is a male, he may end up as father, grandfather and great-grandfather in the same pedigree. Father-daughter, mother-son and some other combinations result in a disproportionate number of genes coming from one ancestor.
Assortative mating is the mating of individuals that are phenotypically similar. It is a normal practice, to some degree, for humans and various other species. Though phenotype is a product of both genotype and environment, such individuals are more likely to carry the same alleles for genes determining morphology. If we are talking about a conformation that is basically sound from the structural point of view, the genes involved will have been subjected to natural selection for thousands of years, and will most likely be dominant. The major characteristics that set one breed apart from another will likely have been fixed early in the breed's history. ("Fixed" means that there is only one allele of present in the population. If there is only one allele, the question of dominance does not apply unless you mix breeds.)
Consequently, when you look at a dog, you are looking at his genes. If the conformation (or, for that matter, the temperament, intelligence or whatever) is not good, then you are very likely looking at a dog or a breed that is homozygous for one or more recessive alleles that you would probably like to get rid of. If it is the dog and not the breed, you may elect not to breed him, or you may look for a mate that covers the problem. If it is the breed, the only solution would be to introduce some genes from another breed. (That would be an outcross!)
Breeding together animals that share dominant good alleles for most of their genes will produce mainly puppies that also carry these genes. Even it be parents are not homozygous for all these good alleles, you should still get many that are suitable. More important, if animals heterozygous for certain genes are more fit, assortative mating will preserve more heterozygosity than inbreeding. However, unlike inbreeding, assortative mating should not result in an increased risk of the parents sharing hidden recessive mutations. Though we might like to eliminate delererious recessives, everyone carries a few. Trying to find the "perfect dog", without either visible or hidden flaws, is like betting on the lottary. There may conceivably be a big winner out there, but thery are certainly not common.
The risks involved.
Some trait that breeders consider desirable could be the result of homozygosity for a recessive allele for gene A or gene B. Obviously, crossing an AAbb with an aaBB will produce AaBb progeny that will not express this trait. (Aside from some of the genes affecting coat color, I can think of no examples.)
If care is not taken to go back far enough in the pedigrees, you may have two animals with similar phenotypes resulting from common ancestry. Whether you are inbreeding unintentionally or intentionally, the consequences are the same. The solution is simple: check the heritage.
Because assortative mating involves selection (you are hopefully mating the best together, and not the worst), you are denying some dogs the opportunity to pass their genes on to the next generation. This is, perhaps, the subtlest of risks as it does not seem to involve doing anything "wrong". Most would argue that it is merely doing what nature does - eliminating the least fit. But what if some of these "less-than-best" happen to be the only ones to carry the best allele for some gene? Out goes the good with the bad!
This is primarily a "low-numbers" risk. The larger the population, the less likely we are to find that important alleles are carried by only a few individuals. However, it pays to know where the diversity lies. Do any of you know which, among the current dogs, are most likely to carry the genes of any given founder?
The more you tryto cover the deficiencies in one dog with good qualities in another, the less the dogs will have in common. If, then, the results are unsatisfactory, they should not be blamed on assortative mating as that is no longer what you are doing.

OK, having made similar recipes and LOVING that yummy sea foam goodness, I wanted to respond to those reviewers who said that they couldn't get peaks to form. VERY IMPORTANT: there can be NO fatty residue on any of your equipment, and not even a SPECK of yolk in your egg whites, or peaks won't form. The whites just won't fluff up is there is any fat whatsoever! And it's surprising how little fat it takes to ruin your meringue. So...be careful, wash your utensils (even if they're already clean) before you make this. You'll love it!
This was almost a complete disaster. It did not whip up or form peaks one bit. Eventually on the second try I added some confectioner's sugar and a handful of flour, whipped it again, and used it as a glaze for spice cookies. It worked really well for that purpose, so I'll give it two stars.
I liked this, however I used it for a different purpose than to frost a cake. I used it to top the strawberries in a strawberry shortcake. I thought it worked out very well on this type of dessert. Thnx

PG&E on Friday will examine 15 miles of gas pipe in the East Bay for corrosion, dents and more as part of the power company's effort to scrutinize aging Bay Area pipes in the wake of 2010's San Bruno explosion that killed eight and destroyed 35 homes.
On Monday in Milpitas, the power company announced the upcoming probe, a renewed partnership with the Milpitas Fire Department and increased efforts to examine miles of pipe around the San Francisco Bay Area.
"The scene of an emergency is not the place to exchange business cards," said Milpitas Fire Chief Brian Sturdivant. "Hey, we're in the Silicon Valley. This should be expected."
Most of the PG&E's natural gas for the Bay Area flows through the Milpitas terminal. That's more than 10 million cubic feet in the summer and 20 million in the winter, said John Gillio, the terminal's gas maintenance supervisor.
As a result, PG&E has stepped up training efforts with Milpitas Fire Department in case something should go devastatingly wrong.
The company also showed off its "pigs," magnetic, missle-like tools that can squeeze through a variety of pipe dimensions to search for corrosion, dents and more in the aging pipes. PG&E has been using them for about three years, said Jesus Soto, PG&E's senior vice president of gas transmission.
A 15-mile run from Fremont to San Lorenzo is planned this week.
"Along the pipeline system you need to be able to remove obstructions," Soto said.
The problem, Soto said, is the pipes in the Bay Area are older and of varying dimensions. Therefore not all can accomodate the tools PG&E uses to check for problems.
Soto said he was hired in May to figure out how to examine a greater number of the company's aging pipes. Soto said he did not know the percentage of pipes in the Bay Area that can accomodate the tools.
The announcements come after the 2010 San Bruno gas line explosion was blamed on weaknesses in a pipe that was installed in the 1950s and could not accomodate an increase in power on the line.

We mainly use our system with the TV and do not use it often, never loud use. Our system is 3 years old. If you unplug and replug the r/lfe in line, you get a brief lound burst of loud sound so it appears that the subwoofer is capable but otherwise no sound. Any ideas?

Some South Florida driving school instructors say they have the answers to the state's written exam and it's for sale.
What's even more shocking is cash transactions are taking place right in front of the driver's license office.
Is it cheating?
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles says no.
Local 10's Jeff Weinsier went undercover and, within minutes, a state licensed driving instructor who works for a private company was ready to make a deal in the parking lot of the Pembroke Pines driver's license office.
"I have the actual questions. If you want, read the questions and answers for a half hour and go in and take the test," a man named Arnold told a Local 10 producer.
"I guarantee you 100 percent that these are the question from the test," Arnold added.
For $30, Arnold took a Local 10 producer to the trunk of his car, where the producer bought 106 questions and answers.
Local 10 spotted several people who did the same thing.
They were all sitting outside the DMV office memorizing the answers before going in to take the test.
All passed without reading the 62 page Florida Driver's Handbook which explains all the rules of the road.
At a second driver's license office, we were charged $30 for the answers to the written test.
"The same way it reads here is the way it reads on the computer," a man named Harold told a Local 10 producer.
We asked Harold how he got the information.
"We are here every day. We get it from someone inside," Harold added.
Harold takes us to the trunk of his car, too.
At a third location, Fernando also sold us 106 answers and told us 20 of them would be on the test.
He said it was legal because the questions and answers are not in the same order.
Local 10's Jeff Weinsier then confronted the Instructors.
"I don't remember what I told you," Harold told Local 10's Jeff Weinsier.
"You didn't tell us all we'd have to do is read it for a half hour and go take the test?" asked Weinsier.
"No. Never, never," said Arnold.
To our surprise, a spokesperson for the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles said selling the information isn't against current rules.
The department said they provide practice questions at the end handbook.
They do, but you have to read the handbook to get the answers. The answers are not provided.

poor quality This stroller is hit and miss, cheap tires, handle not adjustable. The main problem is the front wheel that has too much free play in pivot point that bolts into front frame. While turning around, the wheel will bind causing the stroller to stop as wheel tilts to a 30 degree angle. There is too much clearance between "axle" and bearings. Over tightening the bolt causes the wheel not to swivel. Locking the front wheel is okay, but who wants to only walk in a straight line, then push down on rear to turn around?

Three weeks ago, the Supreme Court issued its opinion on the Voting Rights Act. In a nutshell, the court said that the South is no more racist than any other part of the country; so Congress needs to come up with a new set of standards for determining which states are required to get approval from the federal government before enacting voter ID laws, creating new legislative districts or moving voting precincts.
On the one hand, I agree with the court's position. It is difficult to single the South out for present-day voting discrimination when you examine the strict voter ID laws in Indiana, Kansas, Arkansas and Pennsylvania or consider the prohibitions on early voting in New York, Michigan and Minnesota. In that light, it is possible to understand the opinion.
On the other hand, it is tough not to believe that but for federal intervention, voting access in the South would be severely restricted for poor, elderly and minority citizens. Texas provided a practical example of this point when the state's Attorney General, upon receiving the Supreme Court's opinion, said that the state's new legislative district maps would be deemed effective immediately even though three federal justices ruled in 2012 that the federal government had provided more than enough evidence of discriminatory intent by the map's creators.
I believe that the pre-clearance provisions of the Voting Rights Act should apply to every state. There is no real possibility that will ever be the case.
Congress does, however, have the opportunity to develop a new set of standards for the Voting Rights Act that can appropriately identify jurisdictions that are current and habitual offenders, then trigger the federal pre-clearance provisions. It appears that this Congressional conversation could start in earnest on Wednesday when Congressman John Lewis of Georgia and Congressman James Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin will testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
As it stands today, the idea that a bipartisan position on the pre-clearance provisions of the Voting Rights Act can be reached seems as fanciful as a winged unicorn. No member of Congress believes that his or her state deserves a racist label in 2013, so there would appear to be no viable political path to adopting a new set of standards.
Nonetheless, members on both sides of the aisle seem to have at least some interest in making it happen. I pray that their words are sincere and the efforts will be earnest. In the meantime, every citizen needs to dust off the old civics textbook and make sure to get educated on what it takes to vote in a post Voting Rights Act America.

In Detail
Geospatial analysis is used in almost every field you can think of from medicine, to defense, to farming. It is an approach to use statistical analysis and other informational engineering to data which has a geographical or geospatial aspect. And this typically involves applications capable of geospatial display and processing to get a compiled and useful data.
"Learning Geospatial Analysis with Python" uses the expressive and powerful Python programming language to guide you through geographic information systems, remote sensing, topography, and more. It explains how to use a framework in order to approach Geospatial analysis effectively, but on your own terms.
"Learning Geospatial Analysis with Python" starts with a background of the field, a survey of the techniques and technology used, and then splits the field into its component speciality areas: GIS, remote sensing, elevation data, advanced modelling, and real-time data.
This book will teach you everything there is to know, from using a particular software package or API to using generic algorithms that can be applied to Geospatial analysis. This book focuses on pure Python whenever possible to minimize compiling platform-dependent binaries, so that you don't become bogged down in just getting ready to do analysis.
"Learning Geospatial Analysis with Python" will round out your technical library with handy recipes and a good understanding of a field that supplements many a modern day human endeavors.
This is a tutorial-style book that helps you to perform Geospatial and GIS analysis with Python and its tools/libraries.
