TOMAHAWK, Wis. (WXPR) - A 30-year-old Lake Tomahawk artist has been selected to place not one, but two of his artworks on Wisconsin conservation wildlife stamps.
This is the fifth time in the history of the three stamp design contests that the same artist has painted the winning design for both the pheasant and waterfowl stamps. Caleb Metrich is a mostly self-taught artist with a love of the outdoors. Previously, he also won the state turkey stamp, and was named "Artist of the Year" by Ducks Unlimited. He says he's honed his craft by trial and error. "All my artistic ability has come from trial and error over the years. I've had, I mean, so many discouraging moments painting and stuff, I just wanted to give up, but over the years, I've gotten better."
Metrich says he takes many photographs which help in his painting. He says he tried 8 times to win the duck stamp print, and he says some artists get discouraged and give up. "It's always been a dream I've had, a goal I set for myself. I remember as a little kid I would see that stamps and I thought, "how awesome it would be to have artwork on a stamp", but I never, ever thought in a million years that I would have the opportunity for mine to grace the conservation stamps."
He says his father is a taxidermist and when he was young, he would draw as his father worked. He tried painting for the first time around age 13. He dabbled in it through high school, but says in the last 3 years he's put much effort into his work. Metrich's advice to beginning painters is don't force it, and paint what comes naturally.
The other winning artwork is also from central Wisconsin. Virgil Beck of Stevens Point took the top prize for the wild turkey stamp with a woodland scene of a strutting gobbler.

Play games after race days or at the end of practices to build fitness, general athletic skills, and enjoyment of running.
Have fun with all practice activities, but also include time specifically for games. Even though at this age runners should not be training so hard that they need a physical break, having game days after races or hard practices is a nice way to reward your team's effort. Games are also great for the last 10-20 minutes of practice before cooling down to keep your team moving when they may otherwise begin to get sluggish, which will improve their overall fitness.
Games also include elements of speed, agility, coordination and/or power, thus building general athletic skill. Equally important, games build team spirit and camaraderie and keep athletes having fun and looking forward to practice. The more they practice, the better they get. When kids see their improvement, they enjoy it even more, so the cycle continues.

© Copyright 2014 Clayton News Daily
By Curt firstname.lastname@example.com While a Boys & Girls Club has already been established for students at Riverdale Elementary School, a more traditional club for all children in the county remains on the agenda for local and regional officials. Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta Regional Vice-President Lisa Eaves said the organization has marked Clayton County as a high-need area because the county still lacks a traditional club. The club at Riverdale Elementary School was established as a "Clubs in Schools" pilot program, but the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta still wants to see a club established in the county to serve children ages 6 to 18, Eaves said. Eaves said the club at Riverdale Elementary School is a "launching pad" for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta to see how future clubs will be established in the county. "We're committed to having multiple traditional, as well as school-based, clubs in Clayton County," Eaves said. "It will take the citizens and elected officials working together to raise the funds needed to start a club. We're interested in serving the children of the county." Eaves said there are currently two groups seeking to establish Boys & Girls Clubs in Clayton County. One is the Clayton County Boys & Girls Club Advisory Board, and the other is the Clayton County Boys & Girls Foundation. She said groups seeking to establish a Boys & Girls Club have to raise at least $250,000 before the club can open its doors. The money covers startup costs and the first year of operating expenses, Eaves said. Starting a club in Riverdale Riverdale Mayor Evelyn Wynn-Dixon, a member of the Clayton County Boys & Girls Club Advisory Board, said the group is focused on making sure the club at Riverdale Elementary School is successful. She added, however, that the board's goal is to eventually establish a club for a broader age-range of children in the Riverdale area. The board is in the early planning stages for such a club, she said. Wynn-Dixon said improving the quality of life in Riverdale was one of her main campaign platforms when she ran for mayor in 2007. She said she felt having a Boys & Girls Club in the city would be one way to improve Riverdale, based on personal experiences. When Wynn-Dixon's three sons and her daughter were children, she said she sent them to a Boys & Girls Club every day after school. "It gave them organizational skills, and structure," Wynn-Dixon said. "They were in a safe haven, so I could go to work and school while they were at the Boys & Girls Club." Riverdale's mayor also said having a Boys & Girls Club in the city, like the one at Riverdale Elementary School, will help families that may not have the money to send their children to more expensive after-school programs. "If you're a struggling parent, and you only have to pay $35 dollars per year for membership in a club that can offer all of these services, you can't beat it," she said. Moving closer in Morrow State Sen. Gail Buckner (D-Morrow), one of the Clayton County Boys & Girls Foundation's organizers, said the establishment of a Boys & Girls Club in Clayton County has long been a goal for local residents. She said there have been at least two efforts in the past to establish a club in the county, but they were ultimately unsuccessful because of difficulties in finding a potential club location. "Clayton County has a critical need for a Boys & Girls Club," Buckner said. "Children need the experience they can provide through their educational programs." The Clayton County Boys & Girls Foundation is currently working to establish such a club in the Morrow area. Buckner said the group has identified a church next to Morrow Elementary School as a possible site. The foundation raised approximately $5,000 during last weekend's "Walk for Clayton County's Boys & Girls," Buckner said. She said the financial donations from the event are still being collected. The foundation's more than 200 volunteers are currently preparing for a larger-scale fundraising walk, which will be held in October, Buckner said. She said she believes a Morrow-based club could open its doors within the next two years. "We still have a long ways to go, but we're hoping to have a club open soon," Buckner said. Setting the tone While the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta oversees the club at Riverdale Elementary, and would oversee any future clubs, all Boys & Girls Clubs are run as separate entities, club officials said. Still, the clubs are linked by the common theme of stressing academics, health and leadership to children in the community. "That's something our county needs, and if we can set the tone and make our club an example for other clubs in the county, then we've done something to improve our community," Riverdale Elementary School Principal April Madden said. "My biggest thing is it's here to serve children. I'm glad to serve as the first [club] in that case." While Buckner said the club at Riverdale Elementary School will remain separate from the potential club which may be established in either Riverdale or Morrow, she said children will benefit from having several clubs in the county. "It means children are going to have better opportunities to have a safe place to have fun and a positive educational experience," Buckner said. "It's just an enhancement of their daily lives." Wynn-Dixon said multiple clubs would also mean children in the county would have more options. "You can't just say 'You can't do this,' or 'You can't do that,'" she said. "We've got to give them an alternative to the streets."

I halved the recipe for the first attempt; it worked perfectly. Also used a pork tip (boneless) still had lots of flavor. As the description suggests would work as a perfect based for many dishes. Super easy and everyone in the family enjoyed which means this is definitely something I would make again!

Fresno-based Attorney David Soldani of Atkinson, Andelson, Lloyd Ruud & Romo presented the board with a demographic study about the Patterson area and its voting population. The board hired Soldani in November.
The California Voting Rights Act of 2001 makes all at-large elections in cities and school districts vulnerable to legal attacks concerning where a candidate resides and the candidate's ethnicity.
In response, many public entities, including kindergarten-to-12th-grade schools, have changed how board members are chosen to by-trustee elections. In a by-trustee election, only people who live in a candidate's specific geographic area can vote for the candidate.
Soldani presented maps and data of six different scenarios of demographics of the voting population. The board favored Scenario E, with a seven-member board that most closely resembles the way the board is today.
"We're just now beginning to discuss this information and we're looking at all possible outcomes," said Grace McCord, the board president, on Wednesday, Dec. 19.
Each scenario provided information on total population, Hispanic population, the number of citizens age 18 and older, and population by race.
Soldani suggested that board members choose a few scenarios and present them to the public in the next few months.
"Get some input from the community on this issue," he said.
He told the board that having an election to change the way trustees are voted in can be costly, so most school districts prefer to seek a waiver of the voter approval requirement from the State Board of Education.
Adopting a by-trustee system voluntarily would allow the district to avoid potential litigation, which could cause .

Pet Stories: In Your Own Words
I am a biologist and college instructor, and although I had a "fling" with "New Age-y stuff" in the early 80s, I had essentially turned away from "that spiritual hogwash" when I returned to college as a non-traditional student to complete my degree. To be honest, my interest in spirituality was at an all-time low.
In 1997, I moved to a little house situated on about 70 acres of woods, further surrounded by several thousand acres of Pennsylvania State Game Land. Truly a biologist's paradise, as we have black bears, deer, wild turkeys, fox, and coyotes here, as well as golden eagle, hawks, owls and songbirds. Of course my "Kitty Tribe" came with me, six cats (all rescues), and being quite taken with cats, we set out to live happily.
Of course the feral cats soon started showing up, they seemed to know they could always find a meal here. I built them straw bale and tarp shelters to shelter them during the cold weather. Naturally, I got close to a few. including "Bo Bo", a handsome orange tiger tom. Boy he loved his milk and getting petted! But one day Bo Bo disappeared and didn't come back.
I was frantic. In desperation, I posted about him on the net and someone suggested an animal communicator who lived in the state. I must have been truly desperate because I called her. She was very reasonable and only charged me a set fee, no matter how many times I called. Bo Bo was never found but is supposedly living on a farm in the area with a grey long-haired feline beauty he found to be attractive. Shortly after the Bo Bo incident, I came upon a kitty hit, but still alive along a road. I took him home so he could know love and the warmth of a home in his final hours. He died after a few hours. Distraught, I consulted the animal communicator, and she assured me that "Gabriel" had indeed made it home.
A few months later, my handsome Frankie went from a huge, strong, shiny-coated cat to being at death's door in just a few short days. Bewildered, I took him to the vet's twice, and then to the emergency vet's. Apparently my Frankie had an undetected heart defect and at the tender age of three years old, he was facing eternity. The vet tried all night to save him, I called and the vet was right by Frankie's pen and told me things were not looking good. I heard Frankie cry out and I instantly understood, he had enough. I told the vet to remove all the tubes and IVs and things and we rushed over. "Daddy" and I took him to a nearby park and gave him lovings and rubbings and he purred the entire time, right until the very end. Frankie was very relaxed at the end and the vet was gentle and soon we heard that beautiful purr no more.
To say I was grief-stricken would be an understatement. Frankie and I were very close. Again I consulted the animal communicator who assured me that Frankie had indeed communicated to me that he was ready to go, that I had done everything "perfectly" and that he safely made it to the other side. She also assured me that he could hear my "I love you"s and the "angel song" I sang to him when I was alone in my car.
Now here is the strange part, as I "talked" to Frankie about his siblings (three of our Kitty Tribe are his littermates), he began to "answer" back. I didn't hear voices or anything, it is more like these thoughts or pictures pop in my head. I called the animal communicator several times to ask if I was going mad or what? Well she told me that Frankie is now one of my spirit guides and that it is his :job: to help me with the rest of the Kitty Tribe. And he has! He helps gather them to come inside when I must go to work, he tells me when things are or aren't okay. He has never been wrong! Even stranger, I have started communicating with other cats, dogs and even deer sometimes. As you can imagine, I don't exactly broadcast this "ability" as I am a scientist and just starting to be successful and cannot risk having my colleagues think I have lost it.
What humans could not do, my cats have done --lead me back towards the spiritual side of life.
Ah cats -- little purring Buddhas with Reiki Paws!

News and Events Details
Scientists from around the Midwest met at the University of Wisconsin-Superior on Sept. 2 to share their latest research into ways to turn plants into clean, renewable fuel that could help end the nation's dependence on foreign oil.
The second Bio-Fuel and Energy Independence Symposium hosted by UW-Superior and American Science and Technology Corp., was aimed at bringing together researchers, engineers, educators and industrial professionals to discuss their latest research, ideas and development activities related to bio-fuels.
Fuels derived from plants - so-called bio-fuels - could hold the key to the United States reducing its reliance on foreign oil. At UW-Superior, scientists from the university and Chicago-based AST are using $6.25 million in federal research funding in a collaborative effort to develop a sustainable production process for bio-based JP-8 vehicle and aircraft fuel that burns cleanly and easily at low temperatures.
Lt. Gov. Lawton discusses policy
Along with hearing scientists present updates to their research, those attending the symposium heard guest speaker Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton point out the need for steady state and federal government energy policies that would encourage investors and entrepreneurs to embrace alternate fuels.
Lawton praised federal economic stimulus spending and state spending that is going into grants and loans for alternative energy research and development projects. She said a strong government energy policy and tax policies that encourage investment in alternative fuels would send a "clear signal" to investors that alternative fuel projects are a good long-term investment.
Also speaking at the symposium was a representative of Sen. Herb Kohl, who relayed the senator's message that, while passage of an energy bill may not occur this year, senators from both political parties agree the country needs to lessen its dependence on foreign oil.
Those attending the symposium also hear luncheon speaker Bob Byrne of Flambeau River Bio-Fuels in Park Falls, Wis., discuss plans to build a large alternative-fuel plant in that town. The plant will generate steam to run an adjacent paper mill and produce useful by-products such as fuel and waxes using forest products that generally are now discarded, such as tree tops, barks, limbs and non-commercial tree species.
Scientists share research findings
Symposium speakers discussed their research, including scientists as well as researchers examining market conditions for bio-mass materials, intellectual property issues regarding new bio-fuel production processes, and the need for developing bio-fuels compatible with existing infrastructure.
Bio-fuel research at UW-Superior
The bio-fuel research project at UW-Superior is aimed at developing manufacturing technologies that can produce bio-JP8, a military vehicle and aircraft fuel, from domestic resources. Scientists from AST, UW-Superior's Department of Natural Sciences, and the university's Lake Superior Research Institute are analyzing plants from northern Wisconsin and northern Minnesota to determine whether the properties that enable plants to survive the region's winter temperatures make them suitable for creating bio-fuels that perform well at low temperature.
The scientific team is focusing on three elements of research. First, to develop a chemical catalyst that can convert vegetable oil into a high-energy-density bio-fuel. Second, to create a genetically engineered bacterium that can break down the carbohydrate chain of vegetable oil to produce a liquid form of bio-fuel with better properties than current bio-fuels. And third, to identify the best high-yield oil seed that can be grown in northern Wisconsin.
The Bio-Fuel and Energy Independence Symposium was sponsored by American Science and Technology Corp., the University of Wisconsin-Superior, West Virginia University Institute of Technology, Argonne National Laboratory, South Dakota State University Metlab, CWE Inc., and Eckerd College.

YARMOUTH, N.S. - Some of the world's top young hockey players have gathered in Yarmouth, N.S., for the 2012 World Junior A Challenge.
The tournament opens Monday when Russia takes on the Czech Republic, while Canada East meets the United States in the late game. Canada West, the defending gold medallist, and Switzerland play their tournament openers the following day.
The 2012 World Junior A Challenge will follow the same format as previous years - the six teams will be separated into two groups of three teams. The group winners will receive an automatic bye to the semifinals, while the second-place and third-place teams will crossover for the quarter-finals.
The gold medal game, which will be shown nationally on TSN2, the official broadcasters of Hockey Canada, is set for Sunday.
The 2012 World Junior A Challenge marks just the second time in the tournament's seven-year history that it is being held east of Saskatchewan. Yarmouth joins Yorkton and Humboldt, Sask. (2006), Trail and Nelson, B.C. (2007), Camrose, Alta. (2008), Summerside, P.E.I. (2009), Penticton, B.C. (2010) and Langley, B.C. (2011) as host cities.
Since the first World Junior A Challenge in 2006 in Yorkton and Humboldt, Sask., more than 100 NHL draft picks have played in the tournament, including 18 first-round selections (Beau Bennett, Alexander Burmistrov, Joe Colborne, Nikita Filatov, Mikhail Grigorenko, Dmitri Kulikov, Evgeny Kuznetsov, Hampus Lindholm, John Moore, Vladislav Namestnikov, Riley Nash, Dylan Olsen, Jordan Schmaltz, Jaden Schwartz, Brendan Smith, Kyle Turris, Andrei Vasilevski and Nail Yakupov).
Every gold medal game at the World Junior A Challenge has featured at least one Canadian team. Canada West won gold at the first two tournaments, in 2006 and 2007, before taking the top prize last year; it also earned silver in 2008 and 2009. Canada East was silver medallist in 2006, 2007, 2010 and 2011, and claimed bronze in 2008.

I've been unable to clean what appeared to be simple dirt stains from clothing that comes in contact with the bumper of my car. It's painted in a metallic color to match the rest of the car. This is the first time I've had a bumper that's painted and the first time I've been unable to remove the stains it causes.
Despite pre-staining and trying 2 different kinds of detergents, these apparent simple dirt stains won't come out.
Is there something unique about metallic paint on cars that creates permanent dirt stains on clothes? This bumper is ruining my wardrobe.
shouldn't be. try a little Stoddard solvent on a rag against the bumper, aka tar remover. you might be picking up road asphalt, brake dust, or other crud that is needing a cleaning. brake dust is a combination of rust and burned ceramic. an oxalic acid or CLR soak would remove this.
the flex additive in bumper paint is still supposed to keep the paint on the bumper. it won't dust off like flat house paint.This message has been edited. Last edited by: swschrad,

[QUOTE]Originally posted by swschrad:

Given that this is once again the Orange and White Barrel Season, that's a distinct possibility.
Seriously, thanks for the suggestions. I've just been using soap and water on the bumper but it hasn't worked.
Sounds really strange about those stains. Maybe they did permanent damage to the bumper?
fresh asphalt on a light colored paint surface might leave a little discoloration. just like tromping across a new driveway will mess up any vinyl flooring in the entry.
the issue here seemed to be material transfer to the clothing, and that's why I'm thinking dusts. brake dust rust is the devil to wash out, oxidizers (bleach, Oxy, Tide To Go, etc.) makes it worse. the dryer will set the stain. you have to pre-treat with oxalic acid to dissolve and flush it away. rhubarb leaves will work in a pinch.

Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden is the latest to interview for the vacant head coaching job with the Arizona Cardinals.
Gruden, younger brother of former Oakland and Tampa Bay coach Jon Gruden, says his interview Thursday at Cardinals headquarters was his first for a head coaching job with any NFL team. He says he may interview with the Philadelphia Eagles next week.
The Cardinals also have interviewed their defensive coordinator, Ray Horton, and Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy.
Although the Cardinals have not confirmed it, Steelers President Art Rooney II told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that Pittsburgh offensive coordinator Todd Haley interviewed for the Arizona job Wednesday.
Arizona is seeking a replacement for Ken Whisenhunt, who was fired after six seasons.

One of my favorite things about entertaining in the fall is dining by candlelight. For tomorrow evening's dinner, I made these apple votives to place down the center of the table.
They are super quick to put together and you may already have all of the supplies on hand.
For this project you'll need: peat pots (available from your local nursery); fresh apples; jute twine or string of your choice (to tie the leaves to the pots); moss; tea light candles; fall leaves from your backyard; and it's super handy to have a melon baller on hand to carve out the apples.
Helpful tips: Fill the peat pot with crunched paper first so you just need to add moss to the top. To prepare your votives the day before, rub lemon juice over the carved apple and place in the fridge until ready to use. When carving the hole for the tea light, start with the melon baller, and then neatly finish edges with a pairing knife.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Water Watch 2014
Stage 2 – Key Water Conservation Measures
The following water conservation measures are needed to make the most of our watersupply, which has been reduced by 37% because of the drought. More than 70% of our annual water use takes place outside the home.
The measures below will help us makethe most of our precious water supply this year
1. There shall be no water hose washing of sidewalks, walkways, driveways,parking areas, patios, porches or verandas.
2. Outdoor watering for lawns and gardens is restricted to the following schedule:
a. No outdoor watering on Sunday, Monday and Thursday.
b. No outdoor watering between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m Sunday - Saturday.
c. Even addresses outdoor watering is allowed on Tuesday and Friday.
d. Odd addresses and non-residential customers (irrespective of addressoutdoor watering is allowed on Wednesday and Saturday.
3. Emptying your swimming pool requires permission and will only be granted onetime during a 12-month period.
4. The use of a water hose for outdoor watering with a shut-off valve shall bepermitted at any time.
5. Failure to follow these measures and the other measures in the City's Water Conservation Ordinance will lead to an initial warning and then monetary fine and up to shutting off your water service.
We are going to share information with the community weekly on how we are doing. We hope that by sharing this information we may not have to go to Stage 3 where thereis no watering outside whatsoever.
During the Drought - Make Every Drop of Water Count!PDF Files:
Welcome to Coalinga
For many centuries numerous tribes of Indians, all belonging to the Yokut, inhabited the San Joaquin Valley. Although it is not clear when the first people made their way to Coalinga, it is known that the Tache (Tachi) one of the largest of all the Yukot tribes, found a permanent water supply at a place called Posa Chanet near the City's present site. From this encampment, they scoured the hills for trade goods. They discovered oil seeps and thick tar. Oil was to be an important item to early inhabitants of the Pleasant Valley. Seepages in the area provided asphalt used to line baskets and was a good traded among other tribes. Eventually, Spaniards and Basques who wanted the land for its cattle and sheep grazing potential displaced the Indians.
As new settlers came to the west seeking a new life and greater opportunities, interest in oil seepages inspired an "oil rush" to the area in 1865. In 1867 a specialized oil-drilling rig, shipped from the east coast, began drilling for oil north of the present site of Coalinga. However, shipping problems caused early interest to die down; the world had not yet discovered the full potential of petroleum.
In the late 1800's, stories of sheepherders who burned rocks at night to keep warm drew the attention of Messer's Robins and Rollins, English second sons. Excited by the promise of coal in the area, they established a mine in a slash of hillside where the Coalinga Rifle Range now exists. From the first, it wasn't profitable. The coal was actually an oil soaked rock called shale, producing two scoops of ash for every one burned. However, the potential of coal from the mine and more in nearby Priest Valley was enough to induce the Southern Pacific (SP) Railroad to extend its frost-free southern route. It crossed Huron and stretched slightly beyond the Coalinga area to a place called Alcalde.
There is debate about how Coalinga got its name. The usual version is that while deposits of oil saturated shale or "coal" in the hills nearby were being mined "Coaling Station A" "Coaling Station B" and "Coaling Station C" were situated along the rail line for loading purposes. "Coaling Station A" was eventually shortened to "Coalinga." This story does not stand close scrutiny and a more likely explanation is that Coalinga was given the final "a" for musical effect. The truth may never be known, since the great quake and fire in San Francisco in 1906 destroyed the SP Railroads office and all its records. Whatever the origin, it is known that the name "Coalinga" was in use fairly quickly after the rail line opened in July 1988. On October 5, 1888 The Railroad Gazette announced: "The extension west from Huron in Fresno County, Cal., has been completed for about 21 miles. A new town called "Coalinga" has been laid out at the end of the track."
The extension of the railroad coincided with a significant worldwide interest in oil production; the second oil rush of 1890. By 1910, Coalinga was the third largest shipping point for the railroad in California with nearly all tonnage connected to oil production.
The town grew quickly during these years. In 1889 the Coalinga post office was established. In 1891 Southern Pacific Railroad purchased the 160-acre homestead of M. L. Curtis for the sum of $900 and laid out the town site of Coalinga as a square cut diagonally by the railroad tracks. Street numbers from one to eight went north to south, and letters A to H from west to east. The Coalinga Women's Improvement Society later changed the alphabetical names to botanical ones. A succession of historically important wells, starting from the discovery well called "Blue Goose" in 1897, was developed. This and subsequent discoveries brought "boomers" into Coalinga by the thousands.
With over 15 years of continuous prosperity behind them, a handful of local citizens began the process of incorporation, which was completed in April 1906. In 1909, the Coalinga Chamber of Commerce was organized and in its first report dated April 16, 1910, they excitedly spoke about the promise of the City. The Coalinga oil field was the largest in California. In September 1909, the Silver Tip well, locate just one-half mile from the City limits, blew with the greatest gusher known in California at that time. This discovery caused enough excitement among the financiers of California that the Los Angeles Stock Exchange was closed on a Friday in November and a special excursion train traveled to Coalinga so that potential investors could marvel at the sight.
During the early years of production, several important developments happened in Coalinga. In 1904 a six-inch oil pipeline was laid from Coalinga all the way to Monterey on the coast (104 miles) for the purposes of providing tanker oil to be sold to overseas buyers. The pipeline was built in 90 days, and crossed two mountain ranges with a maximum elevation of over 2,000 feet. In 1916, Coalinga oilfield workers fought for and won the industry's first 8-hour workday. In 1919 A&W Root Beer was formulated in downtown Coalinga. During World War II, Signal Hill oil in Long Beach was brought in. The supply was so great that the existing pipeline flow from Coalinga to the Los Angeles refineries was reversed and the excess Signal Hill oil was stored in a massive tank farm called Caliola about 10 miles east of Coalinga. Coalinga's oil field was to produce men and companies who were to become some of the giants of the industry including R. C. Baker, founder of Baker Oil Tools. His original buildings in Coalinga are now home of the R. C. Baker Memorial Museum. It focuses not only on oil, but all phases of pioneer life in the Coalinga area.
In those early days, there was no one to provide natural gas to customers in Coalinga. The City simply contracted with nearby oil companies to supply natural gas from their wells, which was then re-sold to City residents. To this day, Coalinga is one of just a handful of cities to operate this utility. Natural gas is currently purchased from major suppliers for residents.
From the outset, it was said that whiskey was easier to get than water in Coalinga. The natural well water supplies had high amounts of dissolved minerals in it, making it suitable for only the most basic uses of washing and irrigating. To meet this challenge, Coalinga's drinking water was imported. Until 1960, the major source of drinking water was water wells in Armona owned by Southern Pacific. This water was shipped, 44 miles, to Coalinga in tank cars for distribution. "A dime a bucket, and carry it yourself" was the cry. In time, a municipal water service was provided for the central area of town, leading to Coalinga's famous third faucet (hot, cold and drinking).
In 1960 Coalinga was the site selected for experimental systems to soften hard water to a point where it was palatable for human consumption. The first of these was an ionic system that was later replaced by the reverse osmosis method. The third faucet was utilized until April 1972 when Coalinga received its first delivery of San Luis Canal water from the state water system.
While oil was the staple of the local economy, agriculture always played an important part. Before 1972 agriculture was limited to cotton and other salt water resistant crops. With the arrival of canal water, the area has become a region of specialty crops including lettuce, tomatoes, asparagus and a variety of nut and fruit trees.
On May 2, 1983 a magnitude 6.7 earthquake hit Coalinga. Buildings constructed from bricks from the 1906 San Francisco quake, toppled. Houses slipped off their raised foundations, chimneys fell and a significant portion of the business district was leveled. The quake caused over $31 million in damage and the City was left with numerous vacant parcels and city-owned lots. Miraculously, there was not a single fatality from the quake, marking it for all time as "the miracle of Coalinga."
While there was open speculation Coalinga would not survive the disaster, the earthquake became the catalyst that inspired revitalization. In 1988, to replace the one destroyed in the earthquake, the residents approved a bond issue for a new $14 million community hospital facility. Coalinga completed an 800-acre annexation to include Pleasant Valley State Prison and the new airport in the City Limits in 1991. In 1994, the Department of Corrections located a major prison facility in Pleasant Valley. With this as an economic base, the City developed a 40-acre industrial park. To address concerns about proximity to schools and associated noise hazards, the airport was relocated four miles to the east. A brand new $8 million airport facility, with a 100' by 5,000' runway, was built in 1996. In 2001 the College Farms, a 180-acre site devoted to school related operations with agriculture, was relocated north of the old airport. The site has since been optioned to be sold to a developer. The Coalinga Regional Medical Center was completed in 2002 and construction of a new mental health facility, the Coalinga State Hospital, was completed in the Spring of 2005. Both the Unified School District and West Hills College have passed bond measures. In the oilfields, a process of steam injection promises to produce 2.3 billion more barrels of oil, perhaps as much as has already been mined.
Since the 1983 earthquake, significant efforts have been made to rebuild and revitalize this City. These efforts, combined with Coalinga's central geographic location and proximity to the busy I-5 corridor, approximately 12 miles to the east, are expected to diversify the City's economy as state growth continues. As the City celebrates its centennial, it is clear that Coalinga is more than "the boom town that lived" it is "the boom town that thrives."

Bad turkey: When it happens to you
Deep-frying your holiday bird has become a popular practice, but do you know what to do if something goes wrong?
This post comes from Mark Chalon Smith at partner site Insurance.com.
Deep-frying the Thanksgiving bird sounds like such a great idea -- until the turkey explodes and the backyard goes up in flames.
The holiday may be a time of good cheer and good eats, but it's also when cooking fires, especially those involving deep-fryers, blacken homes and send people to the emergency room. Grease-fire and cooking-related insurance claims more than double on Thanksgiving compared to any other November day, according to State Farm.
Here are the top 10 states with the most cooking-related claims from 2005 to 2010, according to State Farm:
- Texas (36)
- Illinois (24)
- Ohio (21)
- New York (17)
- Pennsylvania (17)
- Michigan (15)
- Florida (14)
- Minnesota (14)
- Indiana (13)
- Louisiana (12)
Thanksgiving is clearly when the grease hits the flame, but State Farm spokesperson Heather Paul says the danger exists year-round as the popularity of deep-frying grows: "Fire departments are responding to more than 1,000 fires each year in which a deep-fryer is involved," she says. "The National Fire Protection Association says deep-fryer fires result in more than $15 million in property damage each year and hot oil splatter can cause serious burns."
- Special coverage:The holidays on MSN
Filing a claim when your fowl plans go afoul
Paul says insurance companies handle deep-fryer and kitchen fires in the same way as other blazes that damage your home or property -- you're covered for the entire loss minus the deductible. Post continues below.
To file a claim, contact your agent immediately -- if possible, the same day the fire breaks out. Paul also recommends taking photos of the damage and gathering any fire or police reports on the accident. The agent should be able to walk you through the process, she says, adding that most insurance companies have 24-hour hotlines.
"It's so easy to become distracted this time of the year because so much is going on," Paul says. "You can step away from your cooking and, in a second, a fire has gotten out of control."
Shatner on board with video
To propel its awareness campaign, State Farm enlisted actor and Priceline.com spokesman William Shatner. The man who has gone "where no man has gone before" goes right into the backyard in a video at the insurer's website and recounts how he almost burned his house down while deep-frying.
Shatner offers the following safety tips:
- Cook outdoors away from any buildings or trees, and keep the fryer off any wooden structures, such as decks or patios.
- Avoid spillovers by filling the pot with cold oil and then lowering the thawed turkey into it to see if oil should be added or removed.
- Turn off the flame when adding the turkey to prevent flare-ups if oil spills over the rim.
- The turkey must be completely thawed before slowly lowering it into the pot.
- Never leave the deep-fryer unattended.
- Use an extinguisher approved for cooking or grease fires to put out a blaze. Never use ice or water to douse a grease fire or to cool oil.

I've been frying turkeys for close to twenty years, without a single incident (Unless you count the time I pulled the bird from the oil and proceeded to drop it on the ground. Talk about a mess!!!!! We had shrimp for Thanksgiving that year) . I fried 13 last Wednesday alone. But, I've got a strict set of rules that I follow, and do not deviate from any of them. I've passed this philosophy along to both of my sons and they fry without incident as well.
Someone said in another comment that "You can't fix stupid", and he's right. There are some people that should not be allowed around a bucket of hot oil and a flame.
P.S. to the one poster that said anyone under 60 does not have a clue about cooking.... I'll have to disagree with you on that point..........been successful at it for years and I'm not 60 yet.....
This is incorrect. Fill the pot with cold water and place the turkey into the pot. Adjust the water to the correct level. Remove the turkey and mark the water level. Dump out the water and fill the pot to correct level with cold oil. Place on fire and heat the oil to the correct temperature. You whould have a deep fryer thermometer for this.
Here is an idea that might work. Stop being tarded and follow instructions and you will have no problems. People that deep-fry chicken and anything under the sun seem to have no problem cooking a turkey by deep-fry. It's because we know how to do it correctly. Instructions can be found on the internet. My family and I have been doing this for years, and it's a big taste difference (allot better) than just cooking the bird in the oven. A few things to remember, Cook in a safe area away from anything that can catch fire easily. We have always cooked the bird in the garage on a concrete floor with the garage door open. We bought an electric deep-fire not to long ago, and it works better than the old gas one we had. It's also much safer, but we still cook it outside away from the kitchen or anything flammable.
It's a matter of being smart when cooking by deep-fry. You can't just throw a bird into the oil and hope it comes out right. People that cook the whole thing in or near their home are asking for trouble. There is so much oil than needs to be used it's not worth risking a spill and serous injury by doing it in your house. Best advice I can give is cook away from anything you don't want destroyed.
until the turkey explodes and the backyard goes up in flames.......right, written by a dude with no concept of being a man, surprised he could leave occupy wall st long enough to write this, if you add up the top ten states in five years there were 185 claims, that's not so bad, best thing to fry, forget turkey, fry ya a big ole fat ham, unbelievable, 15 lbs of bacon baby, and watch out for those exploding turkey's
Just use at least half your brain and don"t let anyone named Bubba near the turkey fryer and you should be ok!
Or "Bubby", for all that matters...he bought the last turkey fryer at a Target near him...hopefully he could come up with the money to buy the oil and the propane, and that he doesn't try to fry it inside his house. Propane tanks, if you don't have an empty one to exchange, cost around $50-$55...add the cost of the bird, and you're talking an expensive turkey.
That's if you can find one that's open. Most of the fast food joints close on Thanksgiving Day, with the probable exception of those locations that are at truck stops or turnpike service plazas. Otherwise, you may have to settle for a frozen turkey TV dinner.

Billionaire David Einhorn's Favorite Healthcare Stock
Meena is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
One of the top fund managers at the Value Investing Congress was David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital. Einhorn outlined two short ideas, as well as two long ideas. The biggest Einhorn surprise was an investment thesis for a long position in Cigna Corporation (NYSE: CI). Cigna Corp provides employee benefits, such as healthcare products and services.
During his presentation, Einhorn noted that the added complexity of the company has discouraged investors, but with some effort, the HMOs can be pulled apart and analyzed. Healthcare is a rapidly growing part of the economy, with current HMOs having scale and protection from regulatory hurdles. Part of what makes HMOs tough to analyze is the fact that they re-price every year, but while they may have a bad quarter or year, the business model makes money over the long term.
Cigna's key acquisition of HealthSpring should help with the company's growth prospects. HealthSpring allows the company to expand into the Medicare market, as well as increasing commercial members. Full integration of the HealthSpring acquisition should allow Cigna to increase its 2013 EPS to $5.85, up from the estimated 2012 EPS of $5.35. HealthSpring will continue to be a key part of Cigna going forward, namely because millions of Americans are aging into Medicare eligibility each year. HealthSpring allowed Cigna to expand Medicare coverage in eleven states.
Cigna Corp does have tough competition flooding the Medicare-Medicaid industry, with the likes of Aetna Inc. (NYSE: AET) purchasing Coventry Health Care, Inc. (NYSE: CVH). In light of that, Cigna Corp has outperformed year to date, while other key health maintenance organizations have been beaten down. Top Cigna competitors Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), WellPoint, Inc. (NYSE: WLP) and Aetna are all in the red year to date. Cigna Corp and UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UNH) are both up over 12% year to date.
Aetna and Coventry are joining forces, with Aetna acquiring Coventry for $7.3 billion. The deal will be completed in mid-2013, with Coventry expected to contribute $0.45 to Aetna's EPS in 2014 and $0.90 in 2015 due to synergies and cost savings. The acquisition will increase Aetna's Medicaid, Medicare and individual/small group market presence.
On the other hand, Humana has been struggling with rising medical costs due to higher than expected Medicare beneficiaries selecting Humana's Medicare Advantage plans. Humana appears to have been too conservative in its 2012 Medicare Advantage bids, and as a result, operating EPS is expected to be down to $7.28 in 2012, compared to $8.46 in 2011.
WellPoint has been struggling with losses in members—with a loss of 375,000 self-funded and 400,000 fully insured members expected in 2012. Like Humana, WellPoint is seeing rising medical costs, which is expected to be up 7%. The other key overhang with WellPoint's shares is the resignation of the company's CEO, with the stock down 6% since the CEO's departure.
UnitedHealth has been performing well compared to other peers, with membership gains and access to the Medicare population, thanks to the acquisition of XLHealth. The acquisition is expected to grow long-term EPS between 13%-16%. Last quarter, David Einhorn took a new position in UnitedHealth, in addition to his Cigna position. The 2.3 million shares that Einhorn bought made up 2% of his 13F portfolio.
Einhorn notes that the big concerns dragging down the other HMOs have little impact on Cigna, including concerns of Obamacare and turmoil in Europe. We believe that Cigna Corp's current medical costs already reflect the impact of new regulations and the company has a very small international segment, although they have aggressive expansion plans.
Einhorn's position in Cigna, taken in the second quarter, was a new one for Greenlight Capital, representing over 4% of the firm's second quarter 13F portfolio. At 6.4 million shares, Einhorn is second to only Maverick Capital for most shares owned by the funds we track. Maverick owned 7.1 million shares at the end of 2Q, which was also over 4% of their 13F holdings.
Cigna appears to have some of the better growth prospects and has showed strong performance amidst a tough economic environment. We agree with Einhorn's thinking that Cigna Corp has a higher return on capital and growth potential internationally, and as a result, deserves to trade at a slight premium to its peers, with a P/E of 11 versus the peer average of 9.5.

The northern peripheral road also known as the Dwarka Expressway, an 18 km. stretch from Dwarka, Delhi to National Highway-8 in Gurgaon, has become the most happening area of infrastructure development in NCR. Understanding this opportunity, Ansal Housing has invested in many new projects along the northern peripheral road in the past two years.
Ansals Highland Park in Sector 103, Gurgaon, launched recently, is Company's latest project along northern peripheral road. The USP of the project, apart from its location advantage, is the Scottish-style design of the towers, complemented by the rich specifications provided in the individual apartments. The project has received an overwhelming response from the market.
The launch of Ansals Highland Park was followed by the launch of our maiden commercial project on Dwarka Expressway - Ansals Town Walk, a High Street retail-cum-Corporate Spaces, in Sector 104. The salient features of the project include promenade architecture, shops facing the plaza & well-appointed offices.
Buoyed by these twin successes, we plan to launch two more group housing projects in the coming months, to be followed by the launches of 3 more commercial projects.
With this, Ansal Housing currently has a total of over 1250 acres of land under construction including over 20 million square feet of built-up. Out of this, the company has over 450 acres of land under construction in NCR region with nearly 7 million square feet of built-up area in Gurgaon alone. We are developing almost 100 acres of land each in upcoming satellite towns like Rewari, Karnal, Yamunanagar & Alwar. In Shahpur, near Thane, Mumbai, Ansal Housing is developing a 225 acre Thai-style weekend retreat which goes to prove our versatility.
Continuing with its mission of providing quality lifestyles in non-metro areas, Ansal Housing has also launched a township project Ansal Town, Ajmer in Rajasthan, its second big project in the state after Ansal Town, Alwar.
Further, the construction activities in our various ongoing projects at Gurgaon, Meerut, Ghaziabad, Indore, Agra, Jammu, Shahpur, etc. are progressing satisfactorily. Our company is committed to deliver these ongoing projects within the expected time frame.

BLOOMINGTON, IN — Stephen Ashkin, president of The Ashkin Group and Sustainable Tool LLC and founder of the Green Cleaning Network and the Green Cleaning University, recently released his "Green Predictions for 2010," according to a press release.
Among Ashkin''s predictions are the notions that: More consumer and household cleaning products will be green certified, which will also bolster the use of green certified cleaning products in the professional cleaning industry; and more state and local governments will require green cleaning products and systems be used in educational and government facilities, the release stated.
Ashkin also predicts that: Organizations, such as the Healthy Schools Campaign, Practice Greenhealth, the Green Hotel Association and others, will grow in membership and influence; all segments of the professional cleaning industry — manufacturers, distributors and facility service providers — will become more sustainable and environmentally responsible; and more companies will require their vendors to demonstrate they are taking steps to become greener and more sustainable, the release noted.
Ashkin said: "Our industry has made a big impact on so many businesses and [other] industries. We have become a role model of what can be accomplished when an industry decides it is time to go green."
Ashkin, who hopes the professional cleaning industry will be recognized for the leadership role it has played in promoting green cleaning and environmental responsibility, believes that the industry''s first green certified disinfectants will be available in the United States during the calendar year 2010, the release added.

Roger Waters recently came under fire from a number Jewish groups after video of a recent Wall Tour performance in Belgium circulated online showing that the inflatable pig featured in his show was emblazoned with a Star of David on its side.
After seeing the clip, Rabbi Abraham Cooper , a rep for the Jewish human-rights organization Simon Wiesenthal Center, wrote an article charging the former Pink Floyd leader with being a Jew hater, an anti-Semite and a Nazi sympathizer. Waters has now posted a lengthy and impassioned response to Cooper on his official Facebook page .
In the message, the rock legend refutes the rabbi's claims, noting that the United States' Anti Defamation League issued an announcement saying that they believed Waters' had "no anti-Semitic intent" in including the Star of David on the pig. In addition, he explains that the prop also features many other symbols, including "the Crucifix, the Crescent and Star, the Hammer and Sickle, the Shell Oil Logo and the McDonald's Sign, a Dollar Sign and a Mercedes sign."
As for being a Jew hater, Waters notes that he has many Jewish friends, as well as a Jewish daughter-in-law and two Jewish grandsons.
With regard to being labeled a Nazi sympathizer, the 69-year-old rocker points out that his father was killed during World War II while fighting the Nazis, and that he was brought up to have contempt for the Nazi's actions and ideology. He adds that his mother spent her life supporting political causes that promoted equality and freedom for people of varying beliefs and ethnicity, and that he's has tried follow in her footsteps.
Waters, of course, has long been a vocal critic of what he considers the Israeli government's oppression of the Arabs who live in the country and its occupied territories, and has called for a boycott of the country until it changes its policies. He notes that that's why he included the Star of David on the inflatable pig, which he says is a symbol of "the evil of errant government."
Further defending his position, he adds, "To peacefully protest against Israel's racist domestic and foreign policies is NOT ANTI-SEMITIC."
