North Dakota Funded Programs and Activities
Sexual violence, including rape, is preventable. Recognizing this, Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act in 1994. This landmark legislation established the Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) program at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The goal of the RPE program is to strengthen sexual violence prevention efforts. It operates in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and six U.S. territories.
Domestic Violence Prevention Enhancement and Leadership Through Alliances (DELTA)
The Domestic Violence Prevention Enhancement and Leadership Through Alliances (DELTA) program seeks to reduce the incidence (i.e., number of new cases) of IPV in funded communities. The program addresses the entire continuum of IPV from episodic violence to battering through a variety of activities.

Like all of Colorado, Teller County is on alert for wildfires. The difference is that Teller County is the only one currently searching for an arsonist.
According to County Sheriff Mike Ensminger, his office is now investigating 21 suspicious fires. Six of those were reported on June 18, during a period of just six hours.
At a community meeting Monday evening, he praised the residents of his community for their attentiveness and desire to catch the person responsible. He says his office has fielded reports of over 100 vehicles of interest.
"The level of alertness in this county is absolutely incredible," he said.
He cautioned, however, against anyone trying to apprehend a suspected arsonist on their own.
"We do not want you to try to apprehend somebody that you suspect of committing a crime, any type of a crime," Ensminger said.
A potential person of interest was taken in for questioning Thursday night after a resident reportedly spotted an older model red Jeep Cherokee near the intersection of Highway 24 and Highway 67 in Woodland Park, and called 911.
Authorities swarmed the vehicle and detained one individual. But after a series of questioning, the person was released. At this time, the Sheriff's Office says there are no potential suspects in this investigation.
"So obviously the real perpetrator is still out there and who's going to stop him? We need to find him and get him behind bars," resident Bob South said.
"I feel like (the suspect) is heartless, they obviously don't have any family here," homeowner Elizabeth Crismore said.
Ensminger released this written statement at 9:25 a.m. Friday:
On June 21, 2012, in the evening hours a person of interest was detained and questioned by the Teller County Sheriff's Office. After substantial information was gather coupled with the cooperation of our subject he was allowed to go back home. We are still asking the community to stay on a heightened sense of alert and to report anything or anybody that they find suspicious.
It's a disquieting fact for residents of Teller County, where anxiety is growing with every new report of a fire. Though so far all the fires have been small and quickly extinguished, with the suspect still on the loose, people are now wondering what kind of escalation to expect before someone is caught.
Anyone who sees anything suspicious is asked to call the Teller County Sheriff's Office at 719-687-9652.
Sheriff Ensminger says the Forest Service is also involved in the investigation.

With several military bases here in the east, many people live in flight paths of military aircraft and we wanted to know what they think about Friday's Navy jet crash in Virginia Beach.
We spoke to some people in the neighborhood off of Belltown Road who say they think about the dangers of living in the flight zone. Nathan Robinson has lived in the neighborhood for more than 4 years and says a plane crashing in his neighborhood is not something he worries about.
"I know it's a training squadron that's going on out there but they got to do what they got to do and if you want to live in this neighborhood that's something you've got to put up with," said Robinson.
Not all of Robinson's neighbors agree, one woman we spoke with tells us she thinks about the possibility of military aircraft crashing in the neighborhood every time one flies over.

I'm taking some time off, so it'll be quiet on the column and blog front until the New Year. (Though considering my serious Twitter addiction, I'll probably be lurking there a bit.)
In the meantime, I wanted to thank you for reading my column, blogs and tweets over the year.
We may not always agree -- and one look at my emails will tell you we often don't --- but I appreciate your time and feedback.
Happy Holidays, courtesy of my rescue boys.

Clean Air Lawn Care Nominated for Emerging Entrepreneur 2009 Fort Collins, CO – Clean Air Lawn Care CEO, Kelly Giard, has been nominated to be Entrepreneur Magazine's Emerging Entrepreneur of 2009! This is an incredible honor for all of Clean Air Lawn Care and a testament to the changing face of business – a commitment to being green, setting high ethical and environmental standards, and being an example to others. Clean Air Lawn Care is a lawn maintenance business that uses clean electric and biodiesel powered equipment. The vehicles hauling this equipment have mounted solar panels which charge the electric equipment during the workday. The equipment is clean and quiet; the fertilizer is organic; the business is carbon neutral. Clean Air Lawn Care is the pioneer of sustainable lawn care franchising. In the October 2008 print issue of Entrepreneur Magazine, Clean Air Lawn Care was identified as one of the top 5 green franchises in America. The January 2009 issue of Entrepreneur Magazine showcases the Franchise 500 and Clean Air Lawn Care again is listed as one of the major players in a green franchise movement. The sustainable company has been receiving other national attention as well. In May of this year, the company graced the cover of Turf Magazine, an indication that change is indeed coming to the lawn care industry. Noting the sustainable methods used by Clean Air Lawn Care, the magazine stated, "Clean Air may have a jump on competitors who are clinging to traditional techniques." Why Sustainable Lawn Care… • 5-10% of the nation's air pollution comes from gas powered lawn equipment. • In one hour, one gas lawn mower can pollute as much as an SUV driven 23,600 miles. • The company saves $10,000 a year on gas and spends less than $500 to charge the equipment through renewable energy. • Electric lawn mowers cut noise emissions by 50%-75%. Through the use of electric equipment powered by renewable energy, Clean Air Lawn Care removed 32,000 pounds of air pollution equaling over 1,000,000 vehicle miles in 2008. The positive impact of Clean Air Lawn Care's business is parallel with growth. The company's growth equals a larger reduction in national air pollution. The online vote is taking place at http://www.entrepreneur.com/e2009/vote/emerging.php#432 Watch the video and learn how Clean Air Lawn Care is starting a revolution in lawn care and changing the way America mows the lawn.

Sweet Lady Traffic, what's your carbon footprint?
Dan Terry is in love with sweet lady traffic. If he's like most Americans, he drives at least 39 miles a day, every second of which he's joining the rest of US commuters who burn 6,300 gallons of oil—every second. Watch this hilarious ode to sweet lady traffic. The transportation sector accounted for 33% of all the greenhouse gas emissions the US produced in 2007, which means that despite how much Dan Terry and others may love sitting in their cars, inhaling exhaust and stop and going for hours every day, we have to find a more sustainable way of moving through our cities if we're going to deal with climate change. Luckily for me, I'm able to ride my bike to work most days. My ride makes me ridiculously happy in the morning--I don't know if it's all the endorphins that are released, if it's just seeing the change of the Washington DC spring, or if it's all the money and CO2 I'm saving that invigorates me. Using Carbonfund.org's carbon calculator, I figured out that if I drove to work every day, my '95 Volvo would produce 3,000 lbs of CO2 emissions per year and cost me $15 in offsets (not to mention gas, maintenance and other vehicle expenses). Just by switching to my '06 Fuji Silhouette, I cut down significantly on my CO2 impact and get some healthy exercise to boot. Calculate your commute now>> Unfortunately, not everybody has the kind of bicycle-friendly infrastructure that Washington DC has, so more and more people are finding other ways to reduce their commute—either by moving closer to work, telecommuting, or using public transportation. With a new transportation bill coming soon to Congress, Transportation for America is calling on Congress to invest in infrastructure to support the new commuting trends. You can take action by sending a message to your member of Congress on their site, MyCommuteSucks.org. Or, you can help spread the word by tweeting about your commute. Include #mycommutesucks in your rant to have your tweet show up on their front page.

Survey Shows Americans Can Improve Conservation Habits
A national survey released by researchers at Yale and George Mason universities shows that there is a disconnect between Americans' conservation attitudes and their actual behaviors. The survey showed that a large majority of Americans have a positive attitude towards conservation efforts such as turning off unnecessary lights, opting for public transportation or carpooling, and lowering the thermostat. However, despite the optimistic outlook, many individuals are not following through with their behaviors. • 72 percent of Americans say it is important to use public transportation or carpool, but only 10 percent say they "often" or "always" do; • 88 percent of Americans say it is important to recycle at home, but only 51 percent "often" or "always" do; • 81 percent say it is important to use re-usable shopping bags, but only 33 percent "often" or "always" do; The survey also illustrated that when combating global warming, Americans are more likely to show their support through their consumer purchases. In the past year, approximately 1 in 3 Americans have rewarded companies that are taking steps to reduce global warming by buying their products. "There is plenty of room to improve," admits Anthony Leiserowitz, director of the Yale Project on Climate Change. "At the same time, each behavior has its own set of barriers...Lowering these barriers will make it much easier for people to act in ways consistent with their values."

New Solar Panels Make Charging Cell Phones Portable, Stylish
While solar power chargers for cell phones or GPS devices are not new to techies, a new solar technology is now making recharging your phone as easy as grabbing your beach tote. G24 Innovations, the company that is licensing the technology, says that dye-sensitized cells will be used to provide power for various portable devices from e-book readers and cell phones to wireless sensors and keyboards. The solar cells will most likely be made into thin, flexible panels that will then be stitched into various consumer products such as e-book covers, tennis bags, backpacks, golf, shopping and beach bags. Individuals will then be able to plug their phones or music players into the bags using a USB cord. Solar panels on the bags will have 11 cells each, and wiring will attach the panel to a battery pack in the bag. The technology uses a photosensitive dye to start its energy production, similar to the way leaves use chlorophyll to begin photosynthesis. Currently, most photovoltaic cells are still based on silicon or related inorganic materials, not dyes. While the technology works best in direct sunlight (taking six to eight sunny hours outside for the panel to fuel the charger), the cells have even shown to generate voltage from moonlight.

Scientists Torn Over Repaired Ozone's Global Warming Impact
A new report released by scientists states that the hole in the atmosphere's ozone layer is slowly mending. While that news may sound encouraging, some scientists warn that the repairing hole may ironically further contribute to global warming. According to research, the hole led to the formation of moist, radiant clouds that are shielding the Antarctic from carbon emission temperature increases. But, as co-author of the report, Ken Carslow, warns "the recovery of the hole will reverse that," and essentially accelerate warming in the Southern Hemisphere. The report was based off of a new, University of Leeds study using recorded meteorological data spanning the course of two decades. The study showed that the hole generated high-speed winds that caused sea salt to be swept into the atmosphere leading to the production of the moist, reflective clouds. However, some scientists think that the wind speeds were not generated by the ozone layer's hole, but caused by emissions of greenhouse gases. Even as the ozone layer continues to recover, greenhouse gas emissions are expected to expand causing a rise in temperatures. The temperature rise would cause wind speeds to increase over time and have the same cloud-forming effect the ozone hole has now.

Real Dads Cap Carbon
Recently, my Dad sent me an email asking about getting solar power for their home, a townhouse in Philadelphia. He has already replaced his windows with energy efficient panes, insulated his roof, is purchasing energy efficient items, and has taken other, important measures to reduce his climate impact. But what Dad can resist the allure of having a cool gadget on his roof powering his entertainment system? While he may be able to get some benefit from solar energy, he would have to cut down a tree that's already providing insulation benefits to get a fully sun-drenched roof. So I suggested instead that he get looped in on the discussion on climate change action (and saved a beautiful old elm as well). The political opportunity to influence US and international action on climate change has never been greater. Nationally, we have a change to set an economy-wide cap on carbon that restricts emissions over time with the Waxman-Markey bill. It creates a market for carbon, incentivizing reductions in carbon emissions and putting a price on pollution. The vote on this bill is expected in August. Then, this December, the world's leaders will meet in Copenhagen to craft a new global treaty on cutting carbon emissions. All eyes are on the US to see how we will meet our obligations. That's why real Dads cap carbon. Get involved! 1. Reduce What You Can, Offset What You Can't™. 2. Stay informed about climate change, and express support for action. 3. Forward this article to your Dad or a Dad you know, and consider giving a gift offset instead of a gadget this year. You'll be doing him and the planet a favor! And, for the record, here are all the things my Dad has done to reduce his carbon emissions:
- Sold the two cars.
- House's basic structure—N/S exposure only; S. shaded in summer, open for sun in winter.
- New windows throughout—double paned, sealed, and screened for warm weather.
- Recoating for the roof and insulated ceiling with panels.
- Sealed the chimneys and installed ventless gas fireplaces.
- Installed Mitsubishi heating and air conditioning system instead of electric room heaters and window air conditioners.
- Energy efficient refrigerator
- Energy efficient hot water heater
- Energy efficient washer and dryer
- Energy efficient toilets, shower heads, and faucets.
- Replaced light bulbs, use bleachless or recycled paper products, sprays rather than aerosol cans
- Use dishwasher and washing machine after 11:00 p.m.
- And, of course, he offsets with Carbonfund.org

President Obama Addresses the UN on Climate Change
Today marks a full day of climate negotiations that lead off the UN's annual meeting in New York. President Obama will make an opening speech, in which he will acknowledge the previous administration's climate stance by saying that his administration "understand[s] the gravity of the climate threat. We are determined to act. And we will meet our responsibility to future generations." This year's challenge is getting the issue in front of and debated in the US Senate. Without a strong climate commitment from the US, Obama's efforts will be seriously hamstrung in any international negotiations. He highlights what has been done through investment and tax incentives in the US. "The United States has done more to promote clean energy and reduce carbon pollution in the last eight months than at any other time in our history."
We're making our government's largest ever investment in renewable energy – an investment aimed at doubling the generating capacity from wind and other renewable resources in three years. Across America, entrepreneurs are constructing wind turbines and solar panels and batteries for hybrid cars with the help of loan guarantees and tax credits – projects that are creating new jobs and new industries. We're investing billions to cut energy waste in our homes, buildings, and appliances – helping American families save money on energy bills in the process. We've proposed the very first national policy aimed at both increasing fuel economy and reducing greenhouse gas pollution for all new cars and trucks – a standard that will also save consumers money and our nation oil. We're moving forward with our nation's first offshore wind energy projects. We're investing billions to capture carbon pollution so that we can clean up our coal plants. Just this week, we announced that for the first time ever, we'll begin tracking how much greenhouse gas pollution is being emitted throughout the country. Later this week, I will work with my colleagues at the G20 to phase out fossil fuel subsidies so that we can better address our climate challenge. And already, we know that the recent drop in overall U.S. emissions is due in part to steps that promote greater efficiency and greater use of renewable energy.If the Senate and the House could come to an agreement on the climate bill, Obama would certainly be in a stronger position to push a stronger climate treaty. But in order to avoid being a disappointing collection of platitudes, calls for action need to include strong, science-based targets on emissions reductions so that we can get back to a sustainable level of CO2 in our atmosphere.

Sierra College softball aims to strike out cancerBy: Special to the Journal
Watch out, cancer!
The Sierra College softball team looks at cancer in much the same way it looks at Big 8 Conference teams: as an opponent to battle and dominate.
The Wolverines host their annual StrikeOut Cancer doubleheader Saturday as they take on cross-town rival American River College at noon and 2 p.m.
StrikeOut Cancer began more than a decade ago as an initiative of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) and has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the American Cancer Society and its affiliates. According to the NFCA's website, "The program leverages the personal experiences, community leadership, and professional experience of fastpitch softball coaches nationwide to help increase cancer education."
Sierra Head coach Darci Brownell and her Wolverines have hosted a StrikeOut Cancer Saturday annually since 2010 and have raised thousands of dollars for local arms of the American Cancer Society.
"We look forward to our StrikeOut Cancer weekend every year," Brownell said. "The fans who've attended in past years have been so supportive and the cancer survivors who come out are inspiring to everyone."
The highlight of event is the post-game balloon ceremony. Members of both teams, coaches and anyone touched by cancer gather in a circle in the infield and release balloons commemorating cancer victims and survivors.
"There isn't a dry eye in the house when those balloons are released," Brownell said.
In addition to the balloon ceremony, Saturday's event will feature guest speakers, raffles, a BBQ, and a daylong soundtrack of classic rock and soul. The game features the defending Big 8 champion Wolverines, who are again leading the conference with a 6-0 record (16-6-1 overall), and the Beavers, who come to Rocklin in third place at 4-2 (18-5 overall).
Detailed information about the StrikeOut Cancer initiative can be found at the NFCA website, https://nfca.org/index.php/strikeout-cancer, or by contacting Matt Folsom at 916-337-2092 or Darci Brownell at email@example.com.

Either a Borrower or a Lender Be: Why P2P Lending Keeps Growing
Random people won't just give you the money you need to float you through your fiscal troubles. But they might make you a loan. Peer-to-peer lending, where borrowers bypass the big banks and get loans directly from other individuals, is getting bigger all the time.

Nu is an enchanting skin fragrance that is rich and spicy in character and sensual and woody in structure. It's a great scent full of contrasts, sensual and delicate. Nu is for elegant women, knowing their worth. Using Nu is something you do mostly for yourself, to feel oryginal and sexy, no matter what you wear and where you are! It changes the way you feel in seconds...It's not something ordinary, not something many women use, Nu makes you feel special! It can also make that time special :-) So if your looking for different scent, not simple but also fragrance that could be addictive ( for you and others :-) Nu is what you're looking for!

The Lost Continent of Mu
BE Books, 1987 - History - 335 pages
Mu was an immense continent covering nearly one-half of the Pacific Ocean. When she sank during volcanic destruction, fifty million square miles of water claimed her place. This vast continent and culture was the center of civilization some 25,000 years ago. This is the story of Churchward's search for the lost continent, from the vaults of an Indian temple to the four corners of the world.

Contractors are putting the finishing touches on a home in Onslow County before they hand over the keys to a Purple Heart combat veteran.
There are a few fixtures left to install in the home in Richlands, but the director of construction with the Purple Heart Homes organization says they are in good shape to hand the keys to the 3 bedroom 2 bath home to veteran Jim Davis. Davis was disabled after several tours of duty covering Panama, Desert Storm, and the Persian Gulf. After his family lost their home to an arsonist last June, they're looking forward to not only a new home but one where Davis can get around in his wheelchair without any problems.
"I was literally stuck to my kitchen and living room. It's like being a prisoner in your own home. There's not a room in this house I can't get to," said Davis.
The entire project cost the Purple Heart Homes group $230,000 and the Davis family doesn't have to worry about any cost.

Review Details
Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump with Carryall
- Product Review (submitted on July 25, 2009):
When I was looking for a pump, my top choices were Medela Pump In Style and Ameda Purely Yours. They're both comparable in features and reputation, and I chose Ameda for two reasons:
1. Breast milk is better protected from exposure to the environment. The Purely Yours pump accomplishes this by using a patented diaphragm to create a barrier, which protects the pump and tubing from contamination. (Ameda has obtained FDA clearance to make this claim.)
2. It's cheaper than the Medela.
Having used this pump for almost 4 months, I confidently say that I absolutely love it. Here are the reasons why:
1. Milk goes directly from the horns (the parts that go to the breast) to the bottle (through a small valve). I like the fact that milk does not go through any tubes or the pump body. There are only 3 parts to wash (the horns, the valve, and the diaphragm), and they wash very easily.
2. It's powerful, yet comfortable. In fact, this pump was easier on my nipples than my baby. Sometimes, my nipples got really sore from breastfeeding and I pumped and fed the baby with expressed milk to give my nipples a break.
3. Very portable. I've taken this pump everywhere - to parties, work, on trips, shopping. It takes 6 AA batteries, which is very convenient, because they're easily available.
4. Reasonably fast. It takes about 15-20 minutes to pump each breast until the second letdown. Unfortunately, I haven't yet learned how to pump both breasts at the same time. So it takes about 30-40 minutes to pump both breasts. I hope to one day master the two-breasts-at-a-time technique to cut the pumping time in half.
5. Batteries last for 3-4 40-minute pumping sessions. I consider that quite long. This pump has a powerful motor, and I would be happy if I would get even 1 session. I usually pump at home where I have an outlet and use the batteries only occasionally. But if you plan to use this pump on the road most of the time, get rechargable batteries.
6. Accepts any standard size bottle. I wanted to use the glass bottles, and used Evenflo Classic Glass bottles without a problem.
7. Cheaper and lighter than the Medela Pump In Style (my other top choice)
There are two things that I do not like about this pump. They are:
1. The car charger adapter that I got does not fit into any car charger! I somehow was able to get it into the Toyota Corolla charger, but almost took the dashboard out when I was trying to get the adapter out. Perhaps I have a faulty adapter, but I've never tried again.
2. The horns break if used heavily. The part that screws onto the bottle cracks, and then breaks. This happened to both horns, and I had to get replacement horns ((...)).
Despite the car charger adapter issue and the breaking horns, I love this pump. It helps me maintain my milk supply and build a freezer stash for emergency use. I would recommend this to anyone.

How to Be an Apatheist
In a world torn by religious zealotry, not caring much about other people's beliefs (or even your own) can be a virtue.
Reprinted from the May 2003 issue of The Atlantic Monthly with permission.
It came to me recently in a blinding vision that I am an apatheist. Well, "blinding vision" may be an overstatement. "Wine-induced haze" might be more strictly accurate. This was after a couple of glasses of Merlot, when someone asked me about my religion. "Atheist," I was about to say, but I stopped myself. "I used to call myself an atheist," I said, "and I still don't believe in God, but the larger truth is that it has been years since I really cared one way or another. I'm"-that was when it hit me-"an ... apatheist!"
That got a chuckle, but the point was serious. Apatheism-a disinclination to care all that much about one's own religion, and an even stronger disinclination to care about other people's-may or may not be something new in the world, but its modern flowering, particularly in ostensibly pious America, is worth getting excited about.
Apatheism concerns not what you believe but how. In that respect it differs from the standard concepts used to describe religious views and people. Atheism, for instance, is not at all like apatheism; the hot-blooded atheist cares as much about religion as does the evangelical Christian, but in the opposite direction. "Secularism" can refer to a simple absence of devoutness, but it more accurately refers to an ACLU-style disapproval of any profession of religion in public life-a disapproval that seems puritanical and quaint to apatheists. Tolerance is a magnificent concept, John Locke's inestimable gift to all mankind; but it assumes, as Locke did, that everyone brims with religious passions that everyone else must work hard to put up with.
And agnostics? True, most of them are apatheists, but most apatheists are not agnostics. Because-and this is an essential point-many apatheists are believers.

The Division of Juvenile Justice says "Tyler G." was last seen yesterday at Sunset Beach. The juvenile, who is from Brunswick County, was supposed to return today to the Dobbs Center in Kinston.
The state does not release the full name of juvenile offenders when they escape.
Anyone who has seen "Tyler G." should call their local law enforcement agency.

We did a shoot over the weekend and although I had a blast with everyone there, I must say the weather
was too insane to be shooting at a rooftop with the sun beaming straight at us! All for the love of fashion!
I'll try and post the rest of the pics as soon as Grant (the photographer) has them ready!
Also, I've been featured on Lemondrop.com for their Closet Fever post!

Water, sunshine bring out stripers, shad
It's amazing what a little water will do for ya!
All the Central Valley rivers are still running extremely high at the moment and that has been an absolute godsend for our fish.
All this wet stuff is good for future generations of salmon and steelhead (sturgeon, too) as it gives the juvenile fish a much safer passage downstream to the saltwater. It's also great for broadcast spawners like stripers and shad, which lay their eggs on the surface of the water. In high flows, the fertilized eggs have a much higher chance of survival — which obviously bodes well for the future!
But enough of that. How about the present?
Well, the striper fishing continues to be out of this world on the Sacramento system. From Sacramento to Colusa, the fishing has been downright epic for the past several weeks and I've been out landing 40-70 fish an outing!
And as you could see by that picture last week that I ran of client Dale Milam and his 40-pounder, there are some jumbo bass in the river. In fact, that same day a guide buddy of mine sent me a picture of a 50-pounder one of his clients caught.
Water temps are closing in on the 58-degree mark with all this hot weather and that means the fish are going to start spawning. When they do, they'll quickly start heading back toward the saltwater for the summer so this ridiculously good fishing probably won't last a whole lot longer. Sure, there will be fish in the system all summer long — just not in such huge numbers.
Fortunately, shad fishing is just starting to heat up and that should help ease the pain of the stripers heading back downstream. It's anybody's guess as to what this year's shad run will look like but we typically see very good fishing in the American River during high water years.
I've been so focused on stripers that I have not yet been out but there are reports of guys whacking them down on the Sac at Freeport, so it's clearly time to start trying. I know there were fish in the American as early as mid-April (I saw the sea lions tearing 'em up) but I didn't spend a whole lot of time fishing for shad because the water temps were still a chilly 50 degrees.
Shad aren't great biters until the water warms up into the high 50s, so things should really start popping now!
If you're interested in shad fishing, I'd start looking in the lower American this weekend, from Discovery Park to Watt Ave. I'm sure there are fish further upstream, but the action is typically best down low in the early going.
As the month progresses, there should be a massive pile of them on the Upper Sunrise Flats and fishing up there typically rages on big water years well into June. In fact, I've had some great fishing on the Fourth of July weekend in that stretch.
Not the do-it-yourselfer type? You can always go the guided route for stripers and shad. I'm booked pretty solid for the next month straight, but if you have a date you'd like to fish, send me an email on my website (www.fishwithjd.com) and I'll check the schedule.

Homemade rig captures extreme macro shots of snowflakes
Homemade rig captures extreme macro shots of snowflakes
Moscow-based photographer Alexey Kljatov is a keen macro photographer, and for the past couple of years he's been producing closeup shots of snowflakes. More recently he decided to boost the magnification of his camera - a Canon PowerShot A650 - by attaching a reverse-mounted Helios 58mm F2 lens. His inexpensive homemade rig delivers extraordinary magnification, revealing an incredible amount of detail in the intricate crystals of ice.

Kristian Nairn
this wiki
Kristian Nairn is a Northern Irish actor and musician. He is a successful DJ, having performed alongside acts such as the Scissor Sisters and worked as far afield as South Africa and Australia. He is 6'11" and as of June 2012 is 36 years old.
Game of Thrones marks Nairn's first major acting role. He plays the role of Hodor, and announced his casting via Twitter on 22 June 2010. He initially appeared as a guest star in the first season and returned in this role for the second and third seasons.
Hodor does not have a large scar on his right temple in the books. This was added by the TV series' makeup department to hide a tattoo possessed by Kristian Nairn.
Nairn is a fan of the Yogscast podcasting series, which he appeared on for a lengthy interview in their 37th episode.
When asked if it was difficult to express a range of emotions when playing a character who can only speak a single word, Kristian responded:
- "Unlike in the book, where Hodor's emotions are portrayed by a combination of the single word, the situation, and the reader's imagination, I have a very powerful medium to use as well: my body language. I was partially deaf when I was a child, and often in school, before I was fixed, I had to read context and emotions from people's faces and body language. That's also a huge part of sign language, and my knowledge of that (although I'm extremely out of practice) has put me in good stead for this part."[1]

- "Berkley has his sycophantic lackeys do all his deliveries. Well, we shall hit him where it hurts the most! Bring his mail order model business to its knees!"
- — Zero.
Supply Lines... is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to Carl Johnson by Zero at his RC shop in the Garcia, San Fierro.
CJ comes in the shop, looking for Zero. Zero persistently tries to keep him away. He says he is busy, and there is "top secret" stuff that Zero does not want CJ to see. CJ continues to search for Zero, he is found hanging by his underwear in a closet. Zero explains that Berkley humiliated him, and he is in a lot of pain. CJ suggests that he take revenge, so he asks what kind of weapons does Zero have. Zero says that he has a miniature plane, and CJ says they're gonna humiliate Berkley with the plane.
Zero suggests that they destroy Berkley's fleet of delivery couriers. CJ then immediately controls the plane. He maneuvers it to different parts of San Fierro in order to destroy the delivery system before they make their deliveries. He kills five sets of Berkley's delivery personnel, all while watching the fuel of the plane, and takes the plane back to the roof of Zero's shop.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Destroy the couriers before they complete their deliveries
- Fly back to Zero's roof
The reward for this mission is $5,000. The mission New Model Army is unlocked.
- As with the others in the Zero strand, this mission is optional in relation to the overall storyline, but is mandatory for 100% completion of the game.
- This mission is referenced in a GTA Clone game, True Crime: New York City
PS2 Tips
- Fuel is dependent on time, not use. Full throttle the whole mission to get around faster.
- Take out the delivery drivers in the following order:
1. Southwest (closest)
2. South (2nd closest)
3. North (far)
4. Northeast (farthest)
5. Southwest (far)
In this order, the final driver will be close to the home base by the time you get back around to him. The others end up on main streets with more room to line up on them. There is just enough fuel to
get all 5 in this order, but if you let one driver run, you've likely lost.
- Don't fire until you are dead on, lined up, and know you can kill. Stop on the ground by them if you want to line up your aim better. The drivers don't react until fired at. Once shots are fired, the drivers will flee, a
nd can be hard to catch (especially the bikes). You don't have enough fuel to be chasing them around, so make your shots count.
- note: some newer releases of the game for PS2 (ie: after hot coffee hidden scene removal), may have fuel use changed to the way the PC version has it. See below.
PC Tips
- Fuel is dependent on use, not time. Glide where possible, and only accelerate when needed to climb altitude
- There is more than enough time to get targets in any order when gliding most of the mission.

This is in response to a request to show I made the demo mountains in post 7 of this thread.
The embarrassing thing is that I was just winging it, not paying attention (I tend to play/undo, tweak mercilessly until I get the look I like). So following is a summary of the MAIN steps I used.
I'm trying a different format this time, so I have 5 steps per image. I'd suggest opening them in a new window/tab as you follow along with the text.
1) Starting with a piece of Nerdling's map (which has nice colours already - which is why I'm not going to show anything about colours except snowcap).
2) Make a selection using the lasso tool around the area(s) you want the mountains. On the Channels tab, click New Channel. Select the "Initialize from selection" check. This will give us the ability to bring up the selection again by coming back to the channels tab, selecting the "Selection" channel and clicking the "Selection from Channel" button (next to the garbage can icon)
3) Create a new black filled layer named "Blur". Since we still have the selection, fill it with white. Select>None then Gaussian blur 100 px or so (it depends on the size of the map...)
4) Create another new black filled layer named Noise. Load up the selection channel as a selection, and feather it 50 px or so (again, depending on the map...)
5) Fill the feathered selection with B&W rendered cloud or noise (I used the Felimage Noise plugin)
6) Create another black filled layer named "Angular Fill". With our feathered selection, fill it with a Shaped (dimpled) gradient fill.
7) Change Layer Modes of the Angular Fill and Noise layers to Addition. The image will look all blown out. Select the Blur layer and adjust the levels, pulling down the output bright level to 85 or so.
On the Noise Level, Also pull down the brightest level to 50 or so. Do this by sliding the input white level down to where you see something on the histogram, and slide the output white level down to 50.
9) You could use the levels on the Angular fill layer, but you get more control with curves (this is where I spend lots of time "tweaking"). First, bring down the right land side of the line until there are no highlight blowouts (watch the image). Then shape the curve similar to what I have done.
10) Use Layers>New from Visible to create a copy of the heightfield so far, and use the curves tool on this new layer (I renamed it New from Visible...it is created with the name Visible). Make the curve like I show. The idea is to make it resemble the cross section of a mountain range. This is what really defines the peaks.
11) Duplicate that layer, and run Filters>Distort>Emboss. The Azimuth (light angle) and Depth can be what you want, but the elevation MUST be at 30! (This will give all horizontal surfaces a value of 50% grey... perfect for later)
12) Load up that selection from the Selection channel. feather it by 50 px or so, then invert it.
13) Making sure the emboss layer is selected (It gets unselected when you click on a channel), set the foregound colour to 50% grey and fill the layer. This will smooth out the ridges that were evident in the embossed layer in the nearly flat areas. I filled it a second time, as I could still see the ridges (It depends on what your depth was when you ran the emboss filter).
14) Turn off all the Blur, Noise, Angular Fill, and New from Visible Layers, and set the Emboss Layer mode to Hard Light (or Overlay... again, it depends on the image and colours). I wanted to reduce the contast without effecting the 50% level, so using the curves tool, first anchor the 50/50 mark in the middle of the line with a click, then grab the black and white ends and slide them up and down respectively, keeping an eye on the result.
15) A little snow in the heights looks good. Conveniently we have a heightfield ready to use. Turn the visibility of the New fon Visible layer back on, and set its layer mode to Screen. Now apply a threshold, and slide the black level up to a point where you have the amount of "snow" desired.
16) Lastly I ran a 5 px Gaussian blur on the New from visible layer, and lowered the opacity a bit.
That is it.
It is all the playing with curves and adjusting levels in the addition stack when building the heightfield that make this work OK. You could even go further, adding more layer to the stack to represent really big peaks, etc. If you wanted to make mesa's, you could just allow the highlights to blow out, making the top flat!
Hope this was useful, comments on both the content and the format are appreciated.

The Crystal Onix (Japanese: クリスタルのイワーク Crystal Iwark) is a rare pokemon found only on the Orange Islands (in the anime). It is made of Crystal due to eating the diamonds formed in the cave in which it lives.
It earned a name for itself, but only as a myth. The Crystal Onix appered in the anime as an inspiration for a little girl, Marissa whose older brother, Mateo who sculpted pokemon from glass. He had lost his drive for sculpting, but he would regain it upon seeing the Crystal Onix.
- Despite Onix originally being a Rock/Ground type with a weakness against water, the Crystal Onix simply ignores water-type attacks and they bounce off its skin but Fire-type attacks seem to be super-effective against it.
- As with all the other Onix in the series, the Crystal Onix is voiced by Unshō Ishizuka in both the Japanese and English-language versions.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Curse of Hatred
this wiki
The Curse of Hatred (憎しみの呪い, Nikushimi no Noroi), is an ideal of enmity that was said to have been passed down throughout the generations by the Uchiha clan's forefather to the members of his lineage. The origins of this curse can be traced back to when a dying Sage of the Six Paths took the fateful decision to name his younger son, who would go on to become the forefather of the Senju clan, his successor instead of the older sibling because the Sage believed that the beliefs held by the younger son were the key to peace. Consumed with hatred, the elder brother eventually waged war against his brother and thus began a cycle of hatred that transcended history, culminating in the mutual hostility between the Uchiha and Senju.[1]
The curse was almost extinguished by the creation of Konoha, with only Madara Uchiha refusing to relinquish it. Infuriated that his rival Hashirama Senju was made First Hokage instead of himself, Madara sowed the seeds of contempt among his kin with the promise that they would eventually lose standing in their partnership with the Senju if they did not help him. Though Madara was exiled by his clan soon after, a few Uchiha would begin to believe his warning generations later yet were not in a position of power to do anything about it. The Uchiha's hatred was fully rekindled later as the result of them being unjustly accused for the Nine-Tails' Attack on Konoha, which in reality had been set up by Obito Uchiha. Years later, Sasuke Uchiha would come to inherit this immense hatred as well for what was done to his clan and brother, the involvement of Konohagakure in his clan's demise being revealed to him by Obito. Obito noted that Sasuke has inherited the hatred of all the Uchiha and as such, was fated to clash against Naruto Uzumaki, who has inherited the Senju's Will of Fire.[2]
- Although this is said to be the ideal of the members of the Uchiha clan, two known members, namely Itachi and Shisui's ideals were the opposite of this, and they follow the ideals of the Will of Fire. Obito also followed that ideal before assuming the alias "Tobi".

Gov. Pat McCrory's office no longer has a staffer devoted to Hispanic affairs, instead directing questions and concerns of North Carolina's Latinos into an office handling all constituent contact.
McCrory's staff said Friday the Office of Hispanic/Latino Affairs which operated in the governor's office since at least the 1990s has been folded into the constituent services office, which is the administration's main contact for all state residents.
McCrory spokeswoman Kim Genardo said the Latino Affairs office was staffed by one person, who recently left.
McCrory Chief of Staff Thomas Stith said the Republican governor's nearly three-month-old administration doesn't segment constituents by race or cultural background. Stith says an advisory council on Hispanic affairs can help address culturally sensitive issues.
The U.S. Census says nearly 900,000 North Carolina residents are Hispanic.
