Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of California; PM-10; Redesignation of the Coso Junction Planning Area to Attainment; Approval of PM-10 Maintenance Plan for the Coso Junction Planning Area
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Final rule.
EPA is approving the State of California's request to redesignate the Coso Junction planning area (CJPA) to attainment for the particulate matter of ten microns or less (PM-10) national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS). EPA is also approving the PM-10 emissions inventory and the maintenance plan for the CJPA, including control measures for Owens Lake, the primary cause of PM-10 nonattainment in the CJPA. Finally, EPA is finding the contribution of motor vehicles to the area's PM-10 problem insignificant; consequently, the State will not have to complete a regional emissions analysis for PM-10 in any future transportation conformity determination for the CJPA.
Effective Date: This rule is effective on October 4, 2010.

I. Summary of Proposed Action
On June 24, 2010 (75 FR 36023), based on EPA's review of the "2010 PM-10 Maintenance Plan and Redesignation Request for the Coso Junction Planning Area," (the 2010 Plan) submitted by California, air quality monitoring data, and other relevant materials, EPA proposed to approve the State of California's request to redesignate the CJPA to attainment of the PM-10 NAAQS, pursuant to Clean Air Act (CAA) sections 107(d)(3)(E) and 175A. The background for today's actions is discussed in detail in EPA's June 24 proposed rulemaking, and in EPA's determination that the CJPA has attained the PM-10 NAAQS. 75 FR 13710 (March 23, 2010) and 75 FR 27944 (May 19, 2010).
EPA proposed to approve the State's redesignation request, based on EPA's determination that the most recent three years of complete, quality-assured data for the period 2007-2009 showed that the CJPA had attained the PM-10 NAAQS, and on EPA's finding that the area meets all other CAA redesignation requirements under sections 107(d)(3)(E) and 175.
EPA proposed to approve the State's maintenance plan, which includes control measures for Owens Lake implemented through the Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District (GBUAPCD) Board Order #080128-01 (Appendix C of the 2010 Plan). EPA's proposal discussed the historical relationship between PM-10 emissions from Owens Lake and violations of the PM-10 NAAQS in the CJPA, the application of control measures on Owens Lake that have resulted in attainment of the PM-10 NAAQS in the CJPA, and the continued controls that are expected to provide for maintenance of the PM-10 NAAQS into the future. We also proposed to approve the emissions inventory submitted with the maintenance plan as meeting the requirements of section 172(c)(3).
Finally, EPA proposed to find that motor vehicle-related PM-10 emissions are insignificant contributors to the area's PM-10 problem. As a result of this finding, the state would not have to complete a regional emissions analysis for PM-10 in any future transportation conformity determination for the CJPA.
EPA's June 24, 2010 proposal was based on a "parallel processing" (1) request from the State of California. 40 CFR part 51, Appendix V. As expected, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) adopted the 2010 Plan on June 24, 2010 and submitted the 2010 Plan to EPA on July 14, 2010. The July 14, 2010 submittal is identical to the materials CARB submitted for parallel processing on May 28, 2010. Consequently, there is no need to revise our June 24, 2010 proposal and we may proceed with today's final action on the basis of our prior proposal.
II. The Coso Junction PM-10 Monitoring Site
In EPA's proposed rule, we noted that the GBUAPCD had determined that the Coso Junction monitoring site had been violating siting criteria since January 2010. 75 FR 36023, 36025. As discussed in the proposed rule, during a site visit on May 27, 2010, the GBUAPCD learned that the monitoring site had not been watered for several years resulting in a lack of vegetation surrounding the site thus exposing friable soils that could impact monitor readings. In addition, the GBUAPCD learned that beginning in January 2010 a contractor for the property owner, the Coso Operating Company, was driving over the unpaved access road adjacent to the monitor on a regular basis, thus causing the deterioration in the condition of the unpaved access road which had previously been covered by gravel. This combination of events near the monitor led the District to conclude that the data collected from January 2010 through May 27, 2010 must be considered invalid for regulatory purposes, and EPA agreed with the District's assessment. Following the site visit, the District and the Coso Operating Company promptly started to work on resolving the problems in order to be able to again collect valid data as soon as possible. The Coso Operating Company thereafter restricted traffic on the unpaved access road to the monitor and moved the contractor's trailer to a location away from the monitor site. The District and the Coso Operating Company also planned to develop a mitigation plan to apply water to themonitor site area and to re-vegetate the area. Id.
Since our proposed rule, the GBUAPCD has reported that the new location of the contractor's trailer does not require the contractors to drive past the monitor site, the drive area around the monitor site is now covered with gravel to reduce dust and the turning area pavement was enlarged to prevent kicking up dust at the edges. See July 20, 2010 e-mail from Meredith Kurpius, EPA Region 9, Air Quality Assessment Office, to Doris Lo, EPA Region 9, Air Planning Office, Re: Summary of monitoring issues that should be addressed by the Great Basin District. The GBUAPCD has also reported that the Coso Operating Company has begun watering of the area around the Coso Junction monitor site and that a crust is beginning to form which will allow the District to begin collecting valid data on August 1, 2010. See July 28, 2010 e-mail from Ted Schade, Air Pollution Control Officer, GBUAPCD, to Doris Lo, EPA Region 9, Air Planning Office, with attachments. The Coso Operating Company has submitted to the GBUAPCD a dust control plan (or, as referred to in the proposed rule, a mitigation plan) for the Coso Junction monitor area which includes commitments for application and monitoring of gravel, application of water to form a visual crust, monitoring of the visual crust and reapplication of water as necessary, re-vegetation in the fall season in areas that had previously been vegetated, limiting road access to authorized personnel and providing monthly status reports to GBUAPCD through June 2011. See attachment to July 28, 2010 e-mail from Ted Schade, "Coso PM10 Containment Area Fugitive Dust Plan." Moreover, the Coso Operating Company is required by conditions in a permit to operate issued by GBUAPCD to maintain the Coso Junction monitor site and to collect PM-10 samples using EPA-approved reference or equivalent method samplers. See attachment to July 28, 2010 e-mail from Ted Schade, Permit to Operate, Permit Number 234, conditions 27 and 36. Finally, the GBUAPCD plans to install a Web camera to help monitor activities near the monitor site in the future. See July 28, 2010 e-mail from Ted Schade to Doris Lo. EPA will continue to work with the GBUACPD to ensure that the Coso Junction monitor site issues are fully resolved and that the site is maintained in order for the District to meet its commitment to continue daily PM-10 monitoring at the Coso Junction monitoring site in order to verify continued attainment of the PM-10 standard in the CJPA. See 75 FR 36023, 36030.
III. Public Comments and EPA Responses
EPA provided for a 30-day public comment period on our proposed action. This comment period ended on July 26, 2010. We received no comments.
IV. EPA's Final Action
Based on our review of the 2010 Plan submitted by the State, air quality monitoring data, and other relevant materials, EPA believes the State has satisfied all requirements for redesignation of the CJPA to attainment, pursuant to CAA sections 107(d)(3)(E) and 175A. Consequently, EPA is approving the State's request and is redesignating the CJPA to attainment for the PM-10 NAAQS. EPA is also approving the maintenance plan for the CJPA, which includes as a SIP revision GBUAPCD Board Order #080128-01. EPA is also approving the emissions inventory submitted with the maintenance plan as meeting the requirements of CAA section 172(c)(3). Finally, EPA finds that motor vehicle-related PM-10 emissions are insignificant contributors to the area's PM-10 problem; consequently, a regional emissions analysis will not be required for PM-10 in any future transportation conformity determination for the CJPA, as of the effective date of this final rule.
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, redesignation of an area to attainment and the accompanying approval of a maintenance plan under section 107(d)(3)(E) are actions that affect the status of a geographical area and do not impose any additional regulatory requirements on sources beyond those imposed by State law. A redesignation to attainment does not in and of itself create any new requirements, but rather results in the applicability of requirements contained in the CAA for areas that have been redesignated to attainment. Moreover, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. For these reasons, these actions:
In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the final action does not apply in Indian country located in the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, andthe Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in theFederal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in theFederal Register. This action is not a "major rule" as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by November 2, 2010. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements (see section 307(b)(2)).

The Sims 2
Birth, school, work, death.
You'd think Maxis would settle for a graphical upgrade to the biggest-selling PC game of all time, release it, and start counting the money. And it is doing that, creating a whole new graphics and lighting engine that brings a new sense of realism to your virtual homes while keeping that weird brand of Sims whimsy (3D farts, vomit, and vivid electrocutions figure heavily in this sequel). The developer just isn't settling for that.
Instead, Maxis has significantly altered the core gameplay by giving every character you create a finite life span. No more treading water in the time streamevery Sim is born, ages, and dies (sometimes naturally). So, instead of managing individual Sims, you'll handle families across multiple generations. Every Sim will have individual digital DNA, meaning when Sims bump uglies, the resulting Sim will be a unique blend of both parents' physical and mental characteristics. Also, environments will more profoundly affect your Sims, with their childhoods having lasting effects into adulthood.
Another addition to The Sims 2 is its focus on life moments, key events in a Sim's lifetime that are highlighted by special cinematics. These memories are recorded in a special scrapbook, letting little Timmie Sim revisit his first kiss or the death of his mom (or a delightful, deliciously memorable combination of both).

Beach tags- Owner will provide 3 beach tags.
Pets- Dogs are welcome. There is no limit to how many dogs you can bring or size of dogs. There is no additional pet fee.
Parking: 2 car parking
3313-15 Central shares a driveway with beachfront property and has the same spectacular ocean views as a beachfront, but is half the price. With no streets to cross, you are literally steps from the beach (about 30 feet). Because you are not directly on the beach, you will not have towering dunes blocking your view of the ocean. Each unit has ocean views, too, and there is a rooftop deck with panoramic views of Ocean City and neighboring Atlantic City and Sea Isle. This condo is ideal for those who want all the perks of a beachfront, who want to stay in a quiet section of ocean city (about 10 blocks from boardwalk), but do not want to pay $7000 for a week vacation. 3313-15 also has a game room with a pool table, dart board, foosball, and other games for your family's enjoyment.
With 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 decks overlooking the beach and ocean, a full eat-in kitchen with all amenities (dishwasher, refrigerator, garbage disposal, etc), a private game room, 4 car parking, and outside showers, you will have everything you need for your Ocean City getaway. 3313-15 comfortably sleeps 12 in beds plus 2 in a living room futon.
This gorgeous condo is located in a quiet section of Ocean City, away from the hustle and bustle of the boardwalk. It is close to 34th street bridge, 34th St. playground, Acme and Wawa, and is within biking distance of the boardwalk. These units are pet friendly!!

qwner is great to deal with house is roomy and with everything you need with a small view of ocean
Our large family stayed here for two weeks and had a great stay. The proximity to the beach is fantastic, as is the easement through the dunes for easy access. There is ample off street parking for 3 cars, the modern kitchen and full laundry room were great and the landlord was very helpful and accomodating. Even though you aren't paying beachfront prices, you can still sit on the back porch and enjoy a peekaboo view of the ocean and a nice ocean breeze. We would absolutely recommend this property and any of the other properties this landlord owns without hesitation!
My friends and I came down for the weekend and could not have been happier with this house. The location was excellent. One block from the beach, close to all other attractions and very low key.
The owners are great, they respond to all emails and phone calls, and offered a great deal for such a nice house.
I recommend using Russell for vacation spots to anyone, they will take care of you.
We so enjoyed our vacation here that we are booking again for 2016. It accommodated our large group (11) easily and everyone was pleased from the 3 year olds to the 63 year olds. Easy access to beach and a terrific playground just around the corner.
My family and I had a wonderful vacation renting this gorgeous house! It was spotless when we arrived and the owner was so helpful answering our questions. No issues at all and the TVs were in perfect working order. We enjoyed ourselves so much, you can't beat the location. We will definitely return!
This house was very close to the beach. The outside showers were useful. When we arrived at check-in time, it wasn't even cleaned from the previous renters yet. The cleaning crew did come late. The shower curtain in the main bath was full of mildew, the tvs didn't work in 2 of the bedrooms, the main tv was fuzzy and the DVD player didn't work. The owner said he would replace it the next day and never did. Overall, I was disappointed with the lack of cleanliness for the place. I wouldn't stay again.

East Lyme - Speakers at a suicide prevention forum hosted by the Youth Services Bureau Thursday emphasized the importance of both talking about suicide and listening to each other's needs.
"Let people know that you're there for them," John Holt, a sports reporter and anchor at WFSB Channel 3, told the audience. He asked members of the audience to reach out to someone who may be in need of help.
Holt lost his brother, Lindsey, an aspiring nurse, to suicide in 1999. Holt said the loss of a loved one to suicide causes a distinct type of grief with many unanswered questions.
Holt told the family of Brian Dagle, a 2010 East Lyme High School graduate who committed suicide 14 months ago: "I'm so impressed with your strength to be here."
Memorial contributions to Youth Services in Dagle's name underwrote the forum. Parents, young adults and town and school representatives still grappling with the loss of Dagle attended. They were at times silent but also visibly emotional, some wiping away tears.
Kevin Dolan, a close friend of Dagle's and a student at the University of Connecticut who helped raise funds for suicide awareness in Dagle's name, spoke about how Dagle introduced him to a group of friends who became like brothers to him.
"He just befriended me right on the spot, because that's the type of kid he was," he said.
Dolan said Dagle encouraged him to live life without fear and embrace opportunities.
Nena Lake, a licensed social worker, spoke about some of the myths of suicide, such as that people who talk about suicide just want attention.
"Suicide affects all ages, races and socioeconomic levels," she said. "It doesn't discriminate."
She recommended that parents monitor their children for changes in behavior and pay attention to "gut" feelings that something may be amiss.
At the end, Paul Dagle, Brian's father, spoke about how when his son died, he urged people to talk about suicide. He said he was in favor of having more suicide prevention forums.
"This can't be something that is pushed away or ignored," he said.
For more information on the program or for pamphlets on suicide prevention, contact David Putnam, director of Parks, Recreation and Youth Services, at (860) 739-5828.

This retreat is perfect for couples and small families who have the desire to get away from it all. Come to one of the last Beach Communities that still offers the small town feel. We are known as the 'Worlds safest Beach'. Just 12 miles South of Santa Barbara and 90 miles North of LA. A winning combination of location, quality and price!
Why stay in a hotel/motel, or the suburbs that look like any other, when you can bask in the laid back atmosphere of a Beach community, with the smell of the ocean, less than one block to the beach?
The Condo is located in the quiet section of Carpinteria, just steps away from the beach, Bird Sanctuary, Dining and downtown shops, including our own local farmers market. We remodeled in Sept 2010, so be one of the first to enjoy this unit. Leave your car and associated traffic/parking worries behind. We even offer off street reserved parking.
My wife and I stayed here for a week. We had a wonderful time in Carpinteria. The town is so relaxing with many great restaurants of all types and a mellow beach to enjoy at our leisure. The condo was a perfect match for us. It was clean and comfortable with all the comforts of home. The beach and the downtown area were both within walking distance of the condo. We would like to come back again next year.
We had a great time at your Sandpiper condo over the weekend! It was the perfect location for our event in Carpinteria. Everything you need was within walking distance and having the beach so close was great! Though we were out most of the day at our event, your condo provided us with a comfortable and clean place to relax in the evening. Thank you for being so responsive, easy to work with and a fantastic host. We both plan on returning with our spouses.
We had a fantastic family holiday staying two weeks at this place. The condo was practical and well equipped for four (including beach chairs and boogie boards for the kids) with a comfortable master bed. The location was perfect on a quiet street one block from the beach and everything in Carpinteria within walking distance. The kids loved playing at the beach, I found the morning walks along the shore south to the harbour seal colony just wonderful and my husband took the car to the tennis courts in Santa Barbara :) We really appreciated that the shoreline was accessible and without buildings for several kilometers. The little outdoor gym close to the beach was fun and we enjoyed trying a new restaurant most of the days, a favourite was the Thai Siam restaurant at 10 minutes walking distance. Carpinteria was also a good starting point for day trips to shopping and fantastic nature. The trip to the quiet Santa Cruz Island was astonishing: native foxes, beautiful views, hundreds of dolphins, occasional sea lions and migrating gray whales and - beyond all - a family of transient orcas, playing around the ship until the sun went down on the way back.
We had a great time. However, our first impression of the unit wasn't exactly what we were expecting. Apparently there was some confusion in the cleaning schedule and when we showed up, the place still needed to be cleaned. Phoned the owner and was immediately contacted to remedy the situation. Cleaning service came in and within a couple of hours the place was immaculate. The owner even worked with us to find a solution to the situation to ensure our satisfaction-- professional and timely. That's what you want.
The unit is smaller, but comfortable. The upstairs area fit our pack & play with room to spare. Could easily fit a family of 4 with 2 small children with the creative space-saving sleeping solutions. The best part about it is the location. Close to the water and downtown Carp. Nice quiet place with a super comfy bed. Would we stay again? Absolutely.
Stayed over Thanksgiving, and the place was everything promised. Clean, with great instructions. 2 minute walk to a beautiful, clean beach. Walked to a different restaurant for every meal, from The Spot (cheap) to Sly's (expensive). Morning coffee at the Lucky Llama was much closer than might appear on the map. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
This place was great well kept clean and everything you need is on hand.
We literally only had to bring food .
So close to the beach.
We will defiantly be returning hopefully for a longer stay.
Mark's place fits our needs so well, we've been back 3 times. The condo is near the beach and walking distance to the downtown area and state beach camping area. The condo is well stocked with whatever you may need for your stay, a nice kitchen, and comfortable beds. For two persons, it's perfect and adequate for a small family. With one bathroom, any more than that may be an issue. Having a TV in the upstairs master bedroom is a nice touch. The place was very clean when we got there and was easy for us to settle in. Mark is attentive to any communication with his renters. Aside from the occasional train, the sound of the ocean waves makes the the area quite restful. We plan to return.
Shopping is within walking distance as are several restaurants. Park your car and forget it. There are two supermarkets and a Blockbuster video. Walk to the downtown area and explore the small shops. Have a bite to eat at one of the many little restaurants. Enjoy walking and relaxing on the beach. Explore sea life in the tidal rocks. At the south end of the park you can walk along the cliffs of Carpinteria. The Carpinteria Seal Sanctuary is located below the cliffs. The Rincon surfing area is located just south of Carpinteria. For dinner there are family and more expensive restaurants including BBQ. Santa Barbara is a few minutes away via US Highway 101, Amtrak or local transit. The Amtrak station is located adjacent to downtown with regularly scheduled trains to and from Santa Barbara. Local transit service is available at the Santa Barbara Amtrak station (very inexpensive). You can visit the Santa Barbara Zoo and even have a picnic there.

Andrew Gross at the Bergen Record reports that Anton Stralman, who was tendered a qualifying offer at 105 percent of the $900,000 he earned last season, was among the list of 16 NHL players who did file for salary arbitration yesterday.
Gross adds that with Stralman filing for salary arbitration, it likely signals the desire on both sides to work out a multi-year deal in the ballpark of two years at $2.6 million or three years at $3.9 million.
…Sather getting closer to shoring up what should be the best defensive corps in the NHL for the second straight season. And you all know who that final piece is. I'll give you a hint, he shares a name with the best grill on the market.
For those of you hoping, with the Zach Parise and Ryan Suter signings out of the way, the Rick Nash saga will be over soon, think again…
#CBJ trade talks regarding Rick Nash are in a holding pattern — but don't hold your breath. Told nothing is close.
— Aaron Portzline (@Aportzline) July 5, 2012
Despite that report, Columbus GM Scott Howson told the Associated Press that he is "working very hard" to trade Nash.
And apparently "working very hard" means scaring away potential suitors by asking for the moon, as the Hurricanes dropped out of the Nash sweepstakes after Columbus demanded Jeff Skinner in return. (ESPN Insider)
…sadly for Howson and Columbus, there is no way they are getting equal value in return for Nash. Best option may be for them to sit Nash down and see if staying with the Blue Jackets is an option.
Meanwhile, Jesse Spector at the Sporting News takes a look at why Bobby Ryan is more desirable than Nash…
"In fact, a Nash trade will shift him from being captain of a perennially lousy team to a key contributor on a perennially good one. Even if Nash goes to the New York Rangers, who likely will miss Marian Gaborik at the start of the season after shoulder surgery, he would have to share the stage on Broadway, and will face a bigger adjustment to a trade than will Ryan, who has been playing on a team with a former MVP in Corey Perry and a living legend in Teemu Selanne."
…to me the biggest positive for Ryan over Nash is the asking price which seems significantly lower for the Ducks star.
For those of you looking to get the jump on next year's UFAs, Pro Hockey Talk's Jason Brough has the list.
Julie Robenhymer at HockeyBuzz gives us a pretty good scouting report on the newest Ranger, undrafted free agent signee Kyle Jean…
"He's a great prospect at 6'4, 200 lb who knows how to use his body, is surprisingly light footed and recently re-discovered his scoring touch, especially around the net, but I don't think he's penciled into the Rangers lineup this fall. That said, he was poised to be a hot commodity in the college free agent market this year and was invited to several development camps this summer, including Buffalo's this weekend.
At 22 years-old, he's kind of in that awkward development stage where he's better than where he is, but not quite good enough for the next level which is why I think this is a great move for him."
…i dare someone to give me a better scouting department in the NHL than the Rangers. In Gordie we trust.
Finally, yesterday the Red Wings hired former Rangers head coach Tom Renney as an associate coach.
…apparently the Red Wings felt that had too much offense last season.

A common question. If the house is reasonably modern (last 10 years) check the sold prices section above. If older the only real way to be certain is to request a search via the land registry website (there is a fee).Answered on Aug 10 2010, Report content
If your home was built before about 1930 referance to the maps (sorted by your postcode) at the following site may help. Good luck!

Canon EOS 7D
|I own it
|I want it
|I had it
The EOS 7D is an excellent addition to Canon's range of APS-C DSLRs that is, in terms of build quality, speed of operation, ergonomics and image quality, a cut above Canon's previous APS-C flagship, the EOS 50D. Its eight frames per second continuous shooting speed and highly flexible AF system, coupled with an 18Mp CMOS sensor with formidable high ISO capabilities make the Canon EOS 7D one of the finest APS-C DSLRs that money can buy.

If you can justify the price tag it's hard to fault Canon's new APS-C flagship. With class-leading image quality, fast operation and excellent handling the EOS 7D is everything a semi-pro model should be--and the excellent movie mode will be a welcome bonus to those that like their pictures to move. Arguably the best APS-C SLR on the market today.

Every April, my associate Melissa Bolt, and I have the pleasure of visiting one of our favorite cities—Milan. We attend the Salone del Mobile for the purpose of seeing the latest trends and innovations in the world of furniture, although this enormous gathering of fabulous goods gives us much insight into other areas of design as well. This is Italy, after all, where every facet of home furnishings is explored and relished.
We stay with our good friend, Grazia Billio, a gifted colorist who also happens to be the VP and one of the founders of Color Coloris,
an organization that brings together color experts from many industries, and presents a day-long color experience every year in November (http://www.colorcoloris.com/en_index.htm). I met Grazia through another dear friend, colleague, and multi-talented designer, Vittorio Giomo. Vittorio is the very colorful President of Color Coloris.
Grazia's charming home is in the heart of the Brera district, the design center of Milan. Every year, the Brera bursts with activity and creative output as designers from all over the world who attend the Salone also find their way to the Brera. Grazia guides us through the hordes of people all anxious to see what's new in design.
(Of course, along the way are the foods and flavors that Italy is known for.) It always amazes us that so many people have the energy to trudge the fair and then party into the wee hours, but everyone is exhilarated by the intimate connection to both design and color.
We also visited La Triennale di Milano, a design museum in Milan where Melissa could photograph even more images that would enable us to remember all that we see while visiting the area.
Just to give you a flavor of the Salone, the Brera, and the Triannale, we are sharing a few of the 1,800 photos with you. May be this will whet your appetite for your own visit to Milan…

Marsala – Pantone Color of the Year 2015: Pantone 18-1438 TCX.
December 12, 2014 § 3 Comments
December 12, 2014
Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this tasteful hue embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.
The Versatility of Marsala
- Equally appealing to men and women, Marsala is a stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that encourages color creativity and experimentation
- Flattering against many skin tones, sultry and subtle Marsala is a great
go-tocolor for beauty, providing highlight for the cheek, and a captivating pop of color for nails, shadows lips and hair.
- Dramatic and at the same time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala brings color warmth into home interiors
- An earthy shade with a bit of sophistication, texture is the story in print and packaging. A matte finish highlights Marsala's organic nature while adding a sheen conveys a completely different message of glamour and luxury.

Following Up On The Fruits Of A Certified Color Consultant And Colleague
January 2, 2014 § Leave a comment
January 3, 2014
In 2005, I did a Color/Design class here on Bainbridge Island (as I do every summer) for those wishing to expand their careers in color and had the good fortune to have a lovely woman named Irma from Indonesia enroll in the class. Needless to say, Bainbridge is a long way from Jakarta and I was delighted that she was motivated enough to come all that way to take the training program, especially because I had spent some time in Indonesia doing consulting and presentations for a very large cosmetic company founded by a woman named Martha Tilaar. She literally started her company on a shoe string budget with a recipe for skin cream passed on to her from her grandmother. She had seen my first book, more recently re-done as More Alive With Color, and decided to contact me about the possibility of coming to Indonesia to train her make-up artists and salespeople in color.
I happily took my first trip there in the late 80s and subsequently went back to Indonesia twice in the 90s (including Bali— but that's another story) and enjoyed every moment there. This is a country rich in color heritage and the women are really quite beautiful. They are a mix of native Indonesian, some other mixed Asian cultures and Dutch. The furniture in their homes, the food they eat and the clothing they wear reflects those varied cultures. Ms. Tilaar was a fabulous hostess and I found out when I was there that she had quite a success story behind her. When she took me to one of her cosmetic-producing factories, she opened cauldrons of bubbling creams and had assigned color names from More Alive With Color. It was quite a colorful and amazing experience!
It is always gratifying to hear from former students, particularly when I have such fond memories of both Irma and her country, so I was happy to hear from her with an update on what she has been doing in the eight years since she took my class.
Among many other advancements in her career as a personal image and fashion consultant, she has been quite busy picking the colors for Garuda Indonesia's crew uniforms. It was such an amazing coincidence that earlier in the year, July to be exact, she chose reddish purple as an additional color for the Maitre de Cabine uniform of Garuda Indonesia new cabin crew uniform (national flag carrier airline). Additionally in 2009 as part of the team of consultants for Garuda, Irma chose three colors for the new cabin crew uniform: turquoise, orange and blue (purser). After the launching of the new uniform in July 2010, she was thrilled knowing that turquoise was chosen as Color of the Year (2010) and Orange or Tangerine Tango for (2012).
Well done, Irma!
The Colorful Circle Of Life

Teaching my color/design class has brought me into contact with so many creative people who work with/in color. As a teacher and a lifelong student, I am fortunate to be in contact with a lot of amazingly wonderful and talented people.
Color is the binding agent for which these relationships are forged and it is the provider for the inspiration that we all bring into our daily lives as well as our careers. Color touches every part of our lives; from our surroundings, to what we put on our bodies, down to the car that takes us where we want to go.
Consciously or subconsciously we are having a daily color conversation with ourselves. It is the driving force behind our choice of what to wear, unless you live in a nudist colony. It is in these daily "conversations" that we discover the power of color in our lives.
It is my love for color that got me here, and into teaching about color. It was through teaching color that I come to meet other people who share their love of color and how they use it. How people are using color directly affects how I learn and teach about color, which is what inspired this (and all) of my blog posts.
One of the students from my summer 2013 color class recently sent me a very Emerald inspired link from one of her colleagues. Click the link below to take a look at how Emerald, Pantone's 2013's color of the year, has inspired the creative juices.
Do you have a love of color? Does color drive your daily decisions? Has your love of color opened up your world to new possibilities? If so, I would love for you to join me for my next color/design class this January in Burbank, California.
I look forward to meeting you and hearing about your love of color and how you use it in your daily lives.

Lorraine DePasque is a Style/Trends editor for instoremag.com. She has interviewed me many times before and we are often on the same "wavelength" when it comes to spotting trends. This was especially evident when it came to Emerald. I often tell people at my presentations to look to high end jewelry for future influence.
You can say that Lorraine had her (Emerald clad?) finger on the pulse of this one considering that she posted this blog back in April. Click the link below to read Lorraine's rationale of Emerald in terms of jewelry.
Pop Goes The Tangerine Tango Shop

One of our colleagues and former students, Denise Lampron, is an image consultant, stylist and a color design consultant in Los Angeles. She attended a Pantone/Sephora Tangerine Tango event in the "Pop-up" Shop at the Grove in LA– a fun place to shop for all kinds of goodies. This is the report she sent us….
"The event was attended by the press, stylists and 'corporate' from 3-6 pm, and from 6-9 pm by the public. The Pop-up Shop was ideally located in the 'park area' of The Grove. It was a warm, sunny day and an ideal backdrop for the happy, bright introduction of Tangerine Tango."
"The Sephora personnel were knowledgeable, friendly and appeared to be genuinely excited about being at the event. The Pop-up Shop was impeccable. The displays were very high end looking, eye catching, creative and, of course, bright and bold. The Sephora make up artist I spoke with referred to the psychology of TT (she paid attention in your lecture!)"
"The catering company did a lovely job of re-creating the TT theme in the food."
It was a festive opening with lots of interest.
Thank you, Denise, for sharing. Especially loved the picture of you (in orange) taking a picture of you taking a picture!!

We recently received an update from Chip Fesko; a previous contributor to our Blog and an Artist from Newport Beach, California. His prominence as Senior Director of Advertising for the George Lucas Educational Foundation is heavy duty. It is impressive–there must be lots of people vying for that position. He writes well– obviously he got that position at the Lucas Foundation because of his talent. Some of you may remember that he was first featured on our Blog on February 5th, 2010. The color of the year back then was Turquoise and Chip had just completed one of his abstract water colors of painting 10,000 – QUARTER INCH squares of Turquoise.
In addition to Chip's abstract painting, he continues with his watercolors of TROPICAL BIRDS & FLORA and it was his painting of a CATTLE EGRET against a HONEYSUCKLE SKY that reconnected us with Chip again since 2010 … certainly, another nice coincidence for our 2012 chosen COLOR OF THE YEAR – HONEYSUCKLE .
He finds inspiration for color on the smallest scale (pixels) to grandest scale (The Big Bang) and pretty much everything in between.
His different art styles are unique, yet pleasing, intellectually deep, yet simple. Although he is, as yet, an unknown talent, we appreciate Chip reaching out to us and sharing his work!
Below are samples of his TROPICAL BIRDS & FLORA series that were on exhibit at the Newport Beach City Hall for 3 months and also featured in the Australia Art Magazine – ART RUSH.
In addition to his Bird Series, it is Chip's goal to paint 100,000 quarter inch squares – with 10,000 squares per sheet – and 10 Sheets. Each painting is based on a grand scale, yet represents its subject on the smallest level with each individual square, hand painted but looking like a digital pixel. The most amazing element to his abstract paintings is that they also have a component of 3-D imagery when studied and viewed at length and in person.
Finally, Chip has earned his first true Art Commission with a National Park. The Lassen Volcanic National Park has been selling his water colors of Wildflowers & Butterflies in their gift stores.
As Chip likes to say – "COLOR IS LIFE ITSELF" and we couldn't agree more!

Museum of Wisconsin Art opens new building
After researching and refining the history of Wisconsin art for decades, the Museum of Wisconsin Art will be able to tell more of its story starting this weekend. It will reopen in a dramatic new building nestled on the Milwaukee River at 205 Veterans Ave., West Bend - a gleaming, white wedge with twice the space for art inside.
The museum also is altering its narrative, opening up what it means to focus on "Wisconsin art" and creating a greater focus on contemporary art. »Read Full Article

Prince George's County Student Dies Of Meningitis
There are 9 comments on the NBC 4 Washington, DC story from Oct 7, 2008, titled Prince George's County Student Dies Of Meningitis. In it, NBC 4 Washington, DC reports that:School and health leaders in Prince George's County are reassured parents that students were not at risk after a seventh-grader died of bacterial meningitis.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at NBC 4 Washington, DC.

Yes, but she picked it up from somewhere. Is that not a concern? Not trying to cause a panic, just increase awareness.
#2 Oct 8, 2008
You are so correct she had to get it from somewhere. Sorry for there loss.

My heart goes out to yet another family who has lost a precious loved one from bacterial meningitis. I am one of three families in Cedar Rapids, IA who have lost their children within the past four years to this deadly disease. Meningitis is a dangerous and often fatal inflammation of the brain and/or spinal cord that can also lead to sepsis (blood poisoning). We knew little about meningitis and were not aware that a vaccine was available to help protect our children. This illness mimics the flu and even fools the doctors into a false diagnosis until it is too late. Our children died within 15 hours of the first flu-like symptoms. Families need to be educated on the symptoms and prevention methods. Minutes count so it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately to save the life of your child. Early signs are: fever, leg pain, cold hands and feet and abnormal skin color. Classic signs are: headache, stiff neck, sensitivity to light, fever, vomiting and a rash. Survivors can have long term disabilities such as brain damage, hearing loss, kidney failure, blindness and limb amputations. Adolescents and young adults have an increased risk of contracting this disease due to lifestyle factors. Since the bacteria is spread through air droplets and direct contact with someone who is infected (15% of the population can be carriers), this age group is more susceptible from sharing items by mouth (water bottles, cigarettes, lip balm, eating utensils, kissing, etc.) Crowded living situations, such as dormitories and sleep away camps, add to the risk. A new vaccine (Menactra) protects against four of the five strains 85% protection is better than zero protection - and has been recommended by the CDC beginning at age 11 through the college years. Our children died from a vaccine preventable disease. Parents, please dont wait vaccinate your children. Visit www.nmaus.org or www.musa.org for valuable information.

We are so sorry to hear of the death of this girl.
We offer a great support group.
I am the mother of an only child, Ryan, who died from of meningococcal meningitis and the founder and executive director of a national organization, Meningitis Angels, www.meningitis-angels.org .
Too many infants, teens, kids and young adults are left debilitated or die from this vaccine preventable disease.
What is meningitis?
Meningitis is a dangerous and sometimes fatal inflammation of the brain and/or spinal cord that can leave survivors with serious life-long physical problems such as, organ failure, blindness, deafness, loss of limbs, severe seizures, brain damage and other disabilities.
You should also understand meningococcemia and sepsis.
Signs and Symptoms
Do you know the early signs of meningitis and blood poisoning which could improve detection of the disease and save lives?
Unrelenting fever, leg pain, cold hands and feet and abnormal skin color can develop within (12 hours) after infection long before the more classic signs of the illness such as a rash, headache, stiff neck, sensitivity to light and impaired consciousness, debilitation or death. Anyone can get meningitis especially infants, children and teens.
What parents and students should know:
According to ACIP/CDC children ages (11) years through college freshmen should be vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis. The current vaccines are approved for ages (2) years and older. However be informed, there are (5) sero-groups of the disease, all sero-groups are not covered. However the most common in the United States among adolescents and college students is sero-group C and Y, which are.
Infants and toddlers should be vaccinated against pneumococcal meningitis.
Those children in daycare and those of American Indian and African American heritage are at a higher risk for pneumococcal meningitis.
There are no vaccines to prevent viral meningitis.

My daughter attends the same school of this seventh grader and is a seventh grader too! I am so sorry for the loss of this child. As a community we need to find out what is going on in the schools etc... to help treat the next child with this illness and not lose another baby, teen etc... My heart goes out to the parents because my children are pre-teens and now I'm worried about their health more so now; and not because of what happened to this child but to make sure that we don't lose another so soon in this society. Let's try to get help for this disease!!!

This story is very disheartening. My niece and nephew attend that school. I am not sure if either of them know this girl personally. When I took my son (age 12) in for his annual check-up his pediatrician suggested the vaccination for meningococcal meningitis. She said it was optional but she highly recommends it to all between the ages of 10 - 18 especially those who live in dormitories and those who attend sleep-a-way type camps. It just so happens that my son was going away on a camping trip with the school a few weeks later so I opted on the side of caution and had him vaccinated. It is sad this baby had to die from something that was preventable. I wonder if enough people are told that a simple shot could be all that stands between life and death or a normal life and life with debilitating effects. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of this little girl.
#9 Oct 10, 2008
The Meningitis Foundation of America (MFA), a national organization, would like the public and media to know that information is available regarding the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of meningitis. MFA was founded by parents whose children were affected by meningitis. In addition to supporting vaccines and other means of preventing meningitis, the MFA provides information to educate the public and medical professionals so that the early diagnosis, treatment and, most important, prevention of meningitis, will save lives. Meningitis is a dangerous and sometimes fatal inflammation of the brain and/or spinal cord that can leave survivors with serious life-long physical problems such as deafness, brain damage and other disabilities, meningitis can sometimes result in loss of limbs. MFA would like to be considered as a news resource for the disease. For further information, visit the MFA website at www.musa.org .
MFA is proud to announce the new C.I.S.S. Container Identification Scratch System
When we participate in sporting events or mingle at social gatherings it is possible to lose track of our water bottles and/or beverage cans, especially those served in containers that are very similar or identical to a container from which you are drinking. This carries the risk of transmitting an illness, such as meningitis or the common cold or flu. The Container Identification Scratch System, or C.I.S.S., is a fun way to make sure you always know your drink from others. Use it at sporting events or at a family gatherings and reduce the waste from forgotten drinks. Simply scratch your number from the C.I.S.S. label and identify your drink. For more information please contact Bob Gold at [email protected] and www.musa.org
Thank you,
Meningitis Foundation of America

After all of the discord and dysfunction created by the Porter Hospital board through their choice of and support of a CEO and her management team, I am deeply disappointed at their lack of accountability as reported by the press and at the annual meeting on March 30.
Editor's note: This is the eighth in a series of essays on Lucretius, an early philosopher who provides a link to "lost classics" through his epic poem "On the Nature of Things."
The reporting on the situation at Porter Medical Center has raised a number of questions in my mind and I thought I might like to express them and see whether some answers might emerge.
I am one of Dr. Hodde's many patients who will be in search of a new primary care doctor. Upon my first meeting with her I asked, as a 71-year-old, if I might expect that she would be able to "see me out," so to speak. She indicated that she had no intention of going anywhere.
The other day I watched a seminar on emerging viruses, like AIDS and Ebola. Many of these viruses originate in places where people are in close contact with wild animals, often at the edges of forests in Africa. A researcher on the panel had visited one of these places: a logging camp deep in the rainforest.
2.2 billion is a number that everyone throughout North America should remember. 2.2 billion is the number of reasons why Vermont and land throughout the world is targeted for large-scale buildouts of wind, solar and gas. 2.2 billion symbolizes a primary and underappreciated reason why all forms of taxes and costs of living throughout North America are escalating out of control. 2.2 billion. Write down this number and tell it to everyone you know.
Prior to the Thursday, March 31, vote in the Vermont Senate on amendments to S.230, an article appeared in Seven Days asking if Sen. Chris Bray (D-New Haven) could solve Vermont's siting problems with large commercial wind and solar projects. We now know the answer is NO.
This week's writer is Annette Carter, grades 4-6 teacher at Beeman Elementary School in New Haven.
Hosting the naturalization ceremony at Beeman is always a great honor. It is a place where real life intersects with classroom learning. It is a place where we experience what it means when we say we are Americans, and a time where we take great pride in celebrating this amazing country. Our students learn about the path to citizenship, and the stories behind people who come to this country and dream for it to become their home.
Vote no to Act 46 school consolidation of Orwell, Benson, West Haven, Fair Haven, Castleton and Hubbardton school districts.
We appreciate the hard work of the Act 46 Study Committee, but think there are many improvements that can be made to the Articles of Agreement presented for this vote. A no vote will give a chance to make improvements to the articles.
Why is it so hard to get a good job in Vermont, for that matter a job, any job? Is it just Vermont or is this everywhere in the U.S.? Are local jobs just "word of mouth"? These are some of the questions I have been asking myself for the past couple of years.
Not only are there few jobs available but also it is so stressful, frustrating, humbling process.
First step: the search stage. You look for the positions/jobs through indeed.com, careerbuilder.com, vtjobs.com, Addison Independent.
This week's writer is Dr. Fred Kniffin, interim president and CEO of Porter Hospital.
At our recent Porter Medical Center annual meeting I announced that I had learned that morning that Porter Internal Medicine would be closing soon. Since then, I have received numerous calls and letters from community members who are deeply concerned by the closing of this practice and about the future of adult primary care access in Addison County. I appreciated that feedback, and I would like to take this opportunity to address those concerns.
