The first mandatory evacuation in Logan County went out at 7 a.m., that was from the county line south to Hwy 63 with perimeters of I-76 and Hwy 6 on the east and west. As of 10 a.m. this has now been expanded northeast along Hwy. 63 to Sugar Mill Road in Sterling.
The towns of Merino and Atwood have be told to evacuate as well and as of 1:43 p.m. Highway 6 at Washington County Road Q has been closed due to water coming over the bridge. The east boundary of this bridge is Merino, so anyone trying to get out of Merino cannot go west. At this point this is the only bridge closure in Logan County.
At 10:30 p.m. the following statement was issued by the OEM, there is still some debate about where the crest of the water is right now, but here's an idea of what's been going on. Evacuation orders have been extended to include residents living along the river bottom up to the town of Iliff. This evacuation extends the previous boundaries from Highway 63 and I-76 up to Sugar Mill Road in Sterling, to Highway 138 on the northwest and I-76 on the southeast side of the river from Sterling to the town of Iliff. This extension is being issued early as a precautionary measure and so that residents do not miss the call to evacuate during the early morning hours.
There are mixed opinions on whether or not water is rising or receding in Merino, but everything has stayed on the south side of the railroad tracks so far in that area."
The water in Atwood is rising and water is running very hard on both sides of the bridge on Highway 63 between I-76 and Highway 6. This road is closed and is expected to sustain damage.
There has been a lot of excavation work in Atwood to divert water into the Pawnee Ditch and back into the river. These efforts are being undertaken to help hold the water on the south side of the railroad tracks. Efforts will be ongoing with excavation equipment to help patch areas where water is currently seeping under the tracks and these efforts will continue through the night.
If the water does cross the tracks in any significant volume this will impact the City of Sterling and further evacuation notices may be implemented. It could still be hours until we know whether or not this will happen. Stay tuned for updates and this situation could change. The water is moving slowly so we anticipate being able to issue evacuation notices well in advance.
So far damage in the area includes Logan County Road 25 south of Merino which has been washed out, as well as Logan County Road 29.5 east of the river between Merino and Atwood. In addition one to two houses south of Highway 6 near Merino have possible damage.
There will be people answering the phone at the Logan County Emergency Operations Center through the night for residents with questions, call (970) 522-8600.
State troopers are asking motorists to stay off Highway 6 east of Merino into Sterling. The excess traffic is hampering evacuations and making things difficult for emergency responders.
According to Bob Owens, Logan County Emergency Manager, it's very hard to predict what kind of levels this area will see. "There is a discrepancy regarding where the crest is and river gauges are floating so readings may not be accurate," said Owens. "It is estimated that the river peaked at 24' in Fort Morgan, which is unprecedented and much higher than the 1965 flood."
Officials are estimating the river will crest at Balzac this evening and at Atwood early tomorrow morning. At 7 a.m. the river in Balzac was measured at 13.5' Because the river narrows coming out of Fort Morgan, officials expect there could be a surge of water before the crest.
The city of Sterling has set up a shelter at Sterling Middle School that is now open, however they are not accepting pets except for service animals. Logan County Fairgrounds is open for large animals but it is not staffed and people need to care for their own animals. Small animals may be brought to the north end of the grandstands if they are in cages. For questions regarding keeping your pets at the Fairgounds contact Lydia Kiser, (970) 520-9416.
Sandbags are available at the city service center, first come first serve, quantities will more than likely be limited. Residents are asked to stay tuned to local media and Logan County Office of Emergency Management's Facebook page regarding evacuations and updates. Residents are urged to heed these evacuation orders and to help friends and neighbors with evacuations and assistance with housing pets. There is a public information line set up in Sterling, for questions call (970) 522-8600.
The river commissioner is saying that residents should expect sustained flooding for days. "This is going to be severe," said Owens. "Do not underestimate the severity of this event and please be safe."RE-1 Valley Schools has announced all district schools will be closed Monday, as has St.Anthony Catholic School and Merino Schools.

(WMC-TV) - A survivor of the Cordova serial rapist is pushing for a new law to end the statute of limitations on rape evidence. The push comes as the City of Memphis tries to process a backlog of more than 12,000 rape kits.
Meaghan Ybos is concerned that women whose kits have not yet been tested have no recourse.
"I was a cold case," she said.
Ybos has drafted her own legislation to end the statue of limitation on rape.
"For rape in Tennessee, there are only eight years to solve the crime and prosecute it after it occurs and for aggravated rape, there's 15 years," she explained.
In Ybos' case, Anthony Alliano, who is also known as the Cordova serial rapist, used a weapon, making his crime a Class A Felony.
"If the prosecution had only felt they could prove just a rape, a Class B Felony, by the time they tested my rape kit, it would have been one year too late to prosecute my rapist even though they have his DNA on my evidence," said Ybos.
The crime against her was solved nine years after it was committed.
"For the crime of rape, if there's DNA evidence that identifies the perpetrator, we should be able to use that to prosecute the case," she said.
And other Tennesseeans agree.
"When it comes to rape, you should be able to try them no matter how many years it has been," said Memphis resident Pierre Blackman.
"I do think you should be punished for it no matter how long ago it was," agreed Cypress Chaok.
"If you're wrong, you're wrong. A crime is a crime so there should be no limit to it at all," added Brittany Hall.
Ybos has been in talks with several lawmakers to find the right person to help her pass the legislation.
Meanwhile, the Cordova serial rapist will spend the next 178 years in prison.

Luke Gale blow as injury delays return for Bradford Bulls
7:00am Tuesday 5th February 2013 in Sport By Ross Heppenstall, Bradford Bulls Reporter
Luke Gale has suffered an injury setback which will keep him out of action for at least another month.
The Bulls scrum half underwent surgery at the end of last season after sustaining an ankle injury while on duty with England Knights.
Gale had hoped to be fit for the start of the season but is now set for several more weeks on the sidelines.
Bulls coach Francis Cummins is reluctant to put any timescale on Gale's comeback but said: "Luke has experienced some pain which has set him back. The most important thing now is to get him right again."
Meanwhile, Curtis Naughton will be assessed again today after being stretchered off in the Under-19s' home win over Wakefield last Thursday with a knee injury.
The teenage full back underwent initial X-Rays which were all clear before he was reass-essed by the Bulls' medical staff and saw a specialist for an MRI scan yesterday.
It was revealed he suffered a tear of his lateral meniscus (cartilage in knee joint) and is due to have keyhole surgery this afternoon to investigate and repair if necessary.
It is hoped that a simple, small meniscal tear can be repaired during the operation and see him back in action within a month.
Meanwhile, James Donald-son and Adam O'Brien are expected to feature for Dewsbury again at home to Featherstone this weekend.
Both men played off the bench in Sunday's 22-16 win at Doncaster, with O'Brien scoring two first-half tries.

The only recognised full back besides kearney who is at stand off, is in fact Platt. Granted he plays a better game at centre or wing.
And before you come out with a statement like that, think it through.

The best Chinese restaurant I have been in all Italy. Quality food, excellent; clean, spotless; kind masters. Highly recommended.
The best Chinese restaurant I have been in all Italy. Quality food, excellent; clean, spotless; kind masters. Highly recommended.
The restaurant seems nice but at the end is nothing special, food is average and very expensive. Service is good. I don't understand so many good opinion in TA. Once for trying is enough
Padua is a beautiful and very important city that more people should visit. Having said that, this place is out of the center of town, but well worth the trip if you're in Italy for an extended period of time and need an OCCASIONAL change from some of the finest Italian food in the world. The place is huge and... More
With the prospect of confirming previous opinions, I'm gonna leave my review by subtraction. This is not a typical Italy-based chinese restaurant; no frying smell as you enter, no stomachache as you leave (don't take things too literally..). This is not Mao's Chinese Takeaway (Mauro Gurlino's), there's neatness, elegance, but also 3-euro cost per cover and per still water bottle.... More
Having had a few unsuccessful attempts to find a good Chinese in Veneto we found his place on TA and drove the 30km to try it out. We arrived early as it was a Friday night and didn't have a reservation. It was 1925 when we arrived into a large car park in front of a very large restaurant and... More
a very singular place, a very singular (and proud) owner, incredibly good flavours. I tested a lot of 'traditional' dishes. All very, very good. Next time I'll ask them to decide for me: the top of the confidence! Prices more Italian than Chineese. But the food merits them!
I am a great fan of chinese cuisine, to the point that I usually only eat it in London where the standard around chinatown is very good. I lived in Milan for a while, but was often dissapointed by chinese restaurants. Now I live in Veneto and I found in Limena, near Padova Fu Lu Shou which is an excellent... More
This is the place in which you can enjoy a fine Chinese dinner and a place where can cure my home sick. Exceptional food quality and service, excellent environment and atmosphere. The chef even invited me to visit the kitchen which is unexpectedly huge and clean. I believe Fu Lu Shou should be one of the best Chinese restaurants in... More
Fu Lu Shou is a great restaurant, from any point of view. It's not just large (huge carpark, roomy washroom and comfortable seats), but it's also the best place in Padova, and maybe in whole Veneto where you can eat Chinese food. The flavour is the same that you can taste in the best Chinese restaurants in China or honestly,... More

Rating 5 out of 5 Fabulous home, great location, wonderful owners Professor/Hiker Ithaca, NY Review Submitted: June 7, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009 This was the first time my husband and I rented a vacation home, and we would do it again. We were here for five months on sabbatical leave from my college, and this house became our home. I spent most of my time here writing and otherwise working from home. There were two things about the house that were especially useful in this regard: internet access is speedy and very reliable, and the view of the sky and mountains out the back was never anything short of magnificent - very inspiring.
The description of the house was accurate in terms of location, layout, amenities, and so on - except that it's hard to convey how breathtaking the main living space is! When we first saw it, we couldn't believe how lucky we were to find this house!
The owners were simply great. Over 5 months we interacted numerous times, and they were exceptionally considerate, timely in their responses, and good both at managing details and keeping track of big-picture matters.
I would recommend this property to a friend - especially if we could come stay with them!
What activities, attractions, and restaurants did we like? Where to start? I guess the best place to start is to mention that this house is about 20 minutes' drive to anywhere in Albuquerque.
If you're going to the grocery store (our favorite was the Albertson's at the corner of Montano and Coors), it's 15 minutes.
If you're going to trailheads on the west or south sides of the Sandias, it's about 20 minutes. If it's not rush hour you can get to the lower Tram on the west side of the Sandias or Tree Spring Trail head near Sandia Crest on the east side in about 25 minutes. Otherwise it's about 35 minutes.
The world's best Starbucks is 20 minutes from the house, just west of Carlisle on Central. It has fantastic views of the mountains, and the people watching in the Nob Hill district is great. UNM is 3/4 mile west of that on Central; it has beautiful architecture, lots of trees, and very accessible libraries.
For restaurants, Gardunios never fails to please. The food is New Mexican (lots of addictive green chile), but you can get Mexican standards too, like fajitas - which aren't spicy. Get a margarita and table-side guacamole and you're set.
And don't miss hiking in Riconanda Canyon - 10 minutes away on Unser. It's a 2.5 mile, fairly flat hike through part of Petroglyphs National Monument. Go when it's not hot.
Review: Fabulous house, fabulous owners, great city!! Rent here.
Ithaca, NY Review Submitted: June 7, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
Rating 5 out of 5 Great vacation or sabbatical home! jwl Ithaca, NY Review Submitted: June 7, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009 What a wonderful home! Great layout, beautiful view of the city lights and the Sandias, and easy access to the freeway to quickly go to anywhere in Albuquerque! In addition to a nice vacation, we used the space as a sabbatical home. I worked on-site at the Air Force Research Lab, and had several working meetings at Sandia National Lab. The freeway provided an easy and pleasant drive to the base. Additionally, aminities such as free internet, cable tv, stereo, etc made this a wonderful place to relax. Finally, being located near the west mesa, there are beautiful walks right out the front door. Just put on your shoes and enjoy the southwest!!
Review: Location, Location, Location GC2 Waterford, MI Review Submitted: July 25, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
Rating 5 out of 5 We wanted to let you know we all LOVED your house. For me the most perfect thing was the location! My family was not familiar with the west side of town, but when they arrived from Ruidoso - it was perfect. My daughter was staying downtown (with the bowlers) and it was only a 10 minute ride to visit them or pick them up then 15 minutes to the Zoo, Jackalope, Old Town, Aquariam & the Botanical Garden. I can go on and on, but you already know you have a great location. Also we loved being able to get to & from the airport in less than 1/2 hour, and up to Santa Fe (and the Flea Market) in an hour.
We loved watching the balloon ascensions in the mornings and looking over the city lights at night !!
Thank you for opening your home to us. You were also VERY easy to work with - great response time and very informative.
Thanks again."

Port Description
Staying in Touch
Prince George Wharf Cruise Terminal, Nassau.
Internet Cafe, Bay Street Mall, Nassau.
Cybercafe, Robertson Rd., Nassau.
Where to Eat and Drink
Anthony's Caribbean Grill: Think TGIF...Caribbean style. Gourmet-type pizzas topped with jerk chicken, very excellent ribs doused in an awesome barbecue sauce, and warm-weather cocktails bigger than a house. Per-person cost for three courses including wine will run about $20. Daily from 11 am Casino Dr., Paradise Island.
Crocodile's Waterfront Bar and Grill: Waterside dining under thatched tiki huts and island drinks galore--consider this place if you're looking for funky-casual. The Bahamian-style fried chicken is excellent. Per-person cost for three courses including wine will run about $20. Daily 11am-205pm E. Bay St., Nassau.
Cafe Matisse: Everyone loves this place for its excellent Italian food. Their spinach gnocchi topped off with Gorgonzola cheese and a walnut sauce is amazing. Per-person cost for three courses including wine will run about $32. Monday-Saturday noon-3pm. Reservations recommended. Bank Lane, Nassau.
What to See and Do
Head over to the man-made island of Arawak Cay, a local beach dusted with pastel-colored shacks, incredibly fresh conch from vendors, fried fish and grits, lime-marinated conch, and plenty of coconut milk laced with gin. Very popular, especially with the locals, and very crowded, especially on weekend evenings from 205pm until midnight. On the harbor, across from Fort Charlotte.
Pink flamingos, honey bears, and peacocks, oh my! You'll find all this and more at Ardastra Gardens. Wait'll you see the flamingos parade in drill formation. Daily 9am-205pm Chippingham Rd., Nassau.
If you'd rather just spend the day as a guest at the showy 34-acre Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island, consider purchasing a hard-to-come-by day pass for about $2205 ($19 for kids). The pass gets you access to most of the must-see sights at the resort, such as the Dig, the marine habitats, and their beach. What you won't get is the fun stuff around the pools and waterslides.
The number one photo op on the island is the balcony of 18th-century Balcony House, which also happens to be Nassau's oldest wooden structure. Monday-Wednesday and Friday 10am-4:30pm, Thursday only until 1pm, Trinity Pl., Nassau.
For dolphin encounters of the bottlenose kind and seven stunning beaches, head for Blue Lagoon Island (a.k.a. Salt Cay). If it looks a bit familiar, you saw it in the film Splash. There are plenty of water sports to try and hammocks to idle in.
One of the most popular cultural stops on the island is the 18th-century Fort Charlotte. It's fun to roam the dungeons and underground passageways and see the waterless moat--but some say the amazing views of the harbor from the ramparts is the real don't-miss here.
Getting Around
Since the island is fairly compact, the transportation of choice here is walking. There are a handful of car-rental companies, but they are pretty expensive. And then there is that pesky left-side-of-the-road driving to deal with. Taxis are plentiful and can be hailed everywhere. Jitney buses run between the downtown area to Cable Beach and Paradise Island from early morning until about 7pm at 30-minute intervals. The Nassau Water Taxi departs every 30 minutes from behind the Straw Market to Paradise Island, operating daily from 9am-6pm.
Where You're Docked
Prince George Wharf, near Rawson Square (as well as the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism for picking up maps, brochures, etc.), in the heart of Nassau.

• HORSE OF THE YEAR A NO-BRAINER FOR McANALLY, ASMUSSEN NONCOMMITAL
The votes are already in, but it could come down to a photo finish when Horse of the Year is announced tonight at the 40th annual Eclipse Awards dinner in Florida. But in the minds of two trainers, one in the Hall of fame and the other destined to be, it's one vote for Zenyatta and one for abstention.
"Being involved in it the last three years, I've realized how, if you don't have anything at stake, you should keep your mouth shut," said Steve Asmussen, who conditioned Curlin to titles in 2007 and 2008, and Rachel Alexandra in 2009. "I know this: I feel for all three of them (finalists Blame, Goldikova and Zenyatta)."
Ron McAnally took a firmer stance. "Definitely Zenyatta," said the 78-year-old Hall of Fame trainer, who conditioned legendary John Henry to a Horse of the Year title as a 9-year-old in 1984. "There's no question in my mind. Even though she got beat in her last race (losing by a head to Blame in the Breeders' Cup Classic last Nov. 6, her first defeat after starting her career with 19 straight victories), probably with a little bit of luck, she would have beaten the other horse. I think another jump, she was going to anyway.
"But what she's done for racing is incredible. I've never heard of a horse winning that many straight races. She's just phenomenal. The Mosses (owner Jerry and Ann) were good to keep her in training for another year, and show her off. The chances they were taking with a filly like that, to race her another year, they deserve a lot of credit, as well as (trainer) John Shirreffs.
"He picked the right races, the right timing and didn't over-race her. To me there's no question that she should be Horse of the Year."
In response to concerns about fast times on the main track, a significant amount of sand will be added following training hours on Tuesday. Recent heavy rains are believed to have altered the balance of clay, silt and sand that comprise the one mile oval.
"The racetrack may have changed during periods of heavy rain, and we want to get it right back to where we started," said Santa Anita President George Haines.
Haines met on Monday morning with representatives of the California Thoroughbred Trainers (CTT) in order to discuss the amount of sand that will be added.
Where Blind Luck makes her next start was open to speculation Monday morning after the rags-to-riches filly finished second as the 7-10 favorite by 3 ½ lengths to Always a Princess in Sunday's Grade II El Encino Stakes at 1 1/16 miles on Santa Anita's new traditional dirt main track.
Blind Luck, a stone closer who is a prohibitive favorite to be named 3-year-old filly champion of 2010 at tonight's Eclipse Awards dinner, was fifth and last, nine lengths behind leader Champagne d'Oro, at the three-quarter marker, which was further off the pace than trainer Jerry Hollendorfer had anticipated.
For the record however, Hollendorfer took the hit when asked for a post-race comment, saying, "If she got beat it's because of my training." Rafael Bejarano had ridden Blind Luck in six straight races until a conflict arose and Joel Rosario obtained the mount.
"Blind Luck came out of the race really good," said Hollendorfer assistant Dan Ward Monday morning. "Both guys ride the horse very well. Bejarano rode the horse good. The only reason he was off is he was going to ride Tuscan Evening for us in the Beverly D, which was the same day as the Alabama (Aug. 21, at Saratoga, a race which was won by Blind Luck).
"They (Bejarano and agent Joe Ferrar) were thinking ahead and they wanted to ride in the Beverly D because they also had a mount in the Arlington Million. It wasn't like we took him off (of Blind Luck). They're both good riders, but we'll see what the future holds. The important thing is Blind Luck came back in really, really good shape, sound."
Ben Cecil had to go to Plan B when rain forced the Sir Beaufort Stakes from turf to dirt on opening day. It necessitated the scratch of Sebastian Flyte, who is 4-1 on Jon White's morning line to win today's Grade II, $150,000 San Marcos Stakes at 1 1/4 miles on the grass.
Sebastian Flyte also gets a new rider for the San Marcos in four-time national earnings leader and Eclipse Award winner Garrett Gomez. "That worked out very well," Cecil said speaking of obtaining the services of Gomez and smiling like the proverbial cat that swallowed the canary. "It looks like a good match between horse and rider. I hope so." Julien Leparoux, currently based at Gulfstream Park, had been named to ride Sebastian Flyte in the Sir Beaufort.
Sebastian Flyte, who turned four on Jan. 1, was second by a neck last out in the Grade I Hollywood Derby at 1 ¼ miles on turf. It was an eventful trip, with a tight start and traffic in deep stretch. Cecil is hoping for better luck today.
"The horse is doing great," he said. "It's a good test for him, first time against older horses, and obviously, some pretty nice ones in there. But I think he'll run very well."
Doug O'Neill, who won two races Sunday in quest of his fourth Santa Anita training title, is looking forward to running Quick Enough in the Sunshine Millions Sprint at Santa Anita on Jan. 29.
The 7-year-old California-bred son of High Brite was second in his last two starts, following a disappointing 10th-place finish in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint last Nov. 6.
"He's doing great," O'Neill said. "He's just such an honest horse. We ran him in the Breeders' Cup and the turf was kind of slick on top. He never really got a hold of it, but he came back and ran a great race to Cost of Freedom (second in the Miles Tyson at Hollywood Park Dec. 11). He likes this track; he's got a win over it, so we're excited about running him."
Santa Anita Racing Secretary Rick Hammerle reminds horsemen that pre-entries for the Sunshine Millions will be taken in two days, on Wednesday, Jan. 19.
Six races worth $1.8 million in purse money will be run on Sunshine Millions Day, three at Santa Anita and three at its sister track Gulfstream Park. The event showcases horses from two of the nation's best Thoroughbred breeding states—California and Florida—in head-to-head competition.
Santa Anita features the $200,000 Sprint at six furlongs; the $300,000 Distaff at 1 11/6 miles; and the $300,000 Turf at 1 1/8 miles.
Gulfstream presents the $200,000 Filly & Mare Sprint at six furlongs; the $300,000 Filly & Mare Turf at 1 1/8 miles; and the $500,000 Classic at 1 1/8 miles.
FINISH LINES: Agent Scott McClellan reports that Joe Talamo has been engaged by trainer Steve Asmussen to ride Captain Cherokee in Saturday's Grade II, $150,000 Palos Verdes Stakes. Other probables for the six furlong race for older horses include Euroears, Mike Smith; Gato Go Win, Patrick Valenzuela; Hunch, no rider; and Ventana, Rafael Bejarano. Gato Go Win worked four furlongs on Santa Anita's main track Monday in :48.20 for trainer Robert Troeger . . . St Trinians worked five furlongs at Hollywood Park Monday in :59.80 for Mike Mitchell as she prepares to defend her crown in the Grade II Santa Maria Stakes on Feb. 12 . . . Ron McAnally has named Bejarano to ride Beverly D winner Éclair de Lune in next Sunday's $75,000 Megahertz Stakes for older fillies and mares at one mile on turf.

Love, love, love my new curtain panels. Colors are slightly more muted than the online picture but still are gorgeous. I pressed the panels with an iron prior to hanging. I pressed the backside (liner side) to avoid scorching or making the fabric shiny. I used a standard curtain rod and rings with clips to hang the panels. I got the rings on overstock as well (item # 14527997-000-000). Very easy to hang as the rings have clips. I just made a small 1/2 inch fold in the back of the panel and clipped a ring every 6-8 inches. I used 8 ring clips per panel. I have custom curtains in some of the other rooms in the house and these panels look just as nice as custom.
The picture does not look anything like th actual product. The colors are very muted in the picture whereas the actual product was very dark, prominent brown and burgandy rather than what the picture implies of green, yellow and mauve.This is the first time I have had any issue with the product from Overstock. Was very disappointed.
I love these curtains. I was almost put off by the previous review but was so glad I wasn't. They are amazing quality for the money and the muted colors suit me just fine. Actually, I think they look pretty similar to the picture. They are blanket lined so appear heavy and look much more expensive than they really are. If you are considering these, I would say - go for it!
Beautifully crafted draperies. The reviews I read all mentioned how the colors were definitely different from the photograph. My initial reaction was, 'how different can the colors really be'? The colors are definitely muted. I would have kept them but I really wanted to add some punch to a bedroom, so I opted to return them because they lacked that 'colorful' quality I was searching for. Overall, they are great draperies. Just beware the colors are not as vibrant as they are in the photo.
Beautiful panels, great colors for a Tuscan decor. I ordered a total of 6 panels, 4 of them had tabs and 2 of them did not, they hang much better using the tabs. Be aware that you might not get tabs on all the panels. Tried to dispute with Overstock but since they say pole pocket in the description they would not work with me. A little dissappointed
Very nice drapery, unfortunately the color was not right for my decor. The green is more of an olive green and I needed a sage green. I returned them due to the color, but the quality was good.
Again, another great product on these curtains. Only thought is that the colors are a lot duller than in the online picture.
The drapes are very good quality. I bought custom drapes before and these are very good quality. I was worries stripes would look circus like but very formal looking. Color is rich but not overly bright. I had a seamstress add large tassels and a more substantial pleat at top. Very pleased!!!
These curtains are beautiful! They are fully lined and look very expensive. Great buy!
I was hesitant to order these curtains due to the price. I wasn't really looking for functionality, I was concerned about aesthetics only and these two decorative panels were more than I really wanted to pay. The curtains serve absolutely NO purpose in my dining room other than eye candy to visually tie 3 rooms together. I'm happy I went ahead & ordered. My dining room is a rich red with dark woods. I needed something light and almost whimsical on the windows to keep the room from getting "too serious." These fit the bill beautifully. The colors are more muted than what the picture indicates....which actually worked out well against my strong red backdrop. All in all, I am very, very pleased.

A neighborhood on Tucson's east side is on high alert after a swarm of killer bees attacked dogs and people in the area.
Signs have been posted in Harrison Pointe, near South Harrison Road and East 22nd Street, warning people to watch their children and animals.
Residents say in the past two days, bees have attacked and killed four dogs. The bees have also attacked people who are checking their mail.
An exterminator found a hive in the overhang of a home on South Lucinda Drive. Another hive was found in a tree on the property. The exterminator said they had killed all of the bees, but they planned to return to the home on Sunday, to cut through the walls as a precaution.
Exterminators are warning everyone that 99% of all bees in the area are Africanized honey bees, commonly known as killer bees. If you see a hive on your property, do not attempt to remove it yourself. This is a job best left for a professional.

Colorado had been getting a lot of love from pre-season pundits, but their path turned rough this morning, with the news that Jeff Francis would be going on the disabled list. He had pitched five shutout innings against the Cubs on Thursday, but reported pain under his left armpit the next day. He said:
"It's hurting pretty bad, but not like before. I don't know if that's good news or bad. I threw the ball (Thursday) in a way I hadn't thrown it in a long time. It was probably taxing on my shoulder and it probably wasn't ready for it. Needless to say, I'm pretty disappointed."
The "not like before" reference is because Francis missed all of 2009, after undergoing surgery to repair a torn labrum. He had apparently recovered from that, was scheduled to make the second start of the season for Colorado, in Milwaukee, but his spot in the rotation will now be taken by left-handed Greg Smith. There's no immediate plans for Francis to undergo an MRI, and he is expected to travel with the team to Milwaukee, before returning to Denver for examination.

The suites on the Carnival Legend are spacious compared with older RCCL ships. And I was pleasantly delighted with the basket of goodies that Carnival provided to us located in our washroom area. You know things that we (or I) had forgotten such as a razor, some hair gel and the nice St. Ives cream I used for the eventual and nasty sunburn I acquired.
The food was very good on the ship. I would not say that I am fine dining expert, but being from Montreal, I have experienced a lot of exceptional cuisine and Carnival does it's utmost to please in this area. The food in the Cafe was hot and well prepared and the food in the dining room was very good as well.
Ports of Call
San Juan - Nothing to write home about. I was not really impressed. Could be because it was pouring rain. But, we took a small local tour and made the best of it. Visited El Morro, very historical and very nice. But, the rest...could have passed up.
St. Thomas - This port of call is simply breathtaking. There were two other cruise ships in port with us so it was a busy day! We took the advice of some friends and spent part of the day swimming and laying on the beach at Megan's Bay. The other half of the day was spent shopping and looking for those bargains and jewelry and liquor.
Tortola - Another nice port although not as nice as St. Thomas. It rained again that day, but we made the best of it and spent the day at the beach. This time it was with a booked tour through Carnival. The tour was not the greatest, but Carnival came through with a partial refund. We had no complaints about that one because even though the tour was not up to our expectations, we did receive a scenic hour long ride to the beach with picture stops both coming and going at half the tour costs!
Leaving Tortola we hit some weird weather. Winds of the to 75 mph, 18ft waves with swells of 22ft. We were rocking and rolling at 3 am! Let me tell you. I was not the only wife to wake up her husband that night! My husband was snoring away...going with the flow. I needed sea sickness meds...fell asleep 3.5 hrs later and woke up for breakfast at 9:30! Those comments about the Legend being a rocky ship and true. She way be built for speed because of her length. But were those stabilizers on?
Another thing about some passengers. When is ship designates areas for smoking, please stick to those areas. We non smokers do not appreciate inhaling you toxic fumes!
Last year we cruised out of Baltimore and I found the passengers to be extremely pleasant and classy. Hmmmmm.......

Graphics: PNGstarted by Mattman on Jan 8, 2004 — RSS Feed
Posts: 9
PNG seems like a geat graphics format but does anybody use it? How well is it supported in browsers?
Joe Gillespie
Posts: 528
PNG-8 is a good alternative to GIF, usually giving a smaller file size. Most browsers support PNG at a basic level but support for some of the more interesting transparency and gamma correction features is still sketchy.
For a while, when it looked like GIF usage was going to be restricted because of patent problems, people experimented with PNG-8 but I don't think it has really taken off.
PNG-24 is less useful. JPEGs always come out smaller - but if you need the alpha channel support for multiple levels of transparency, it's the only option.
Posts: 4
PNG 24/32 is however very important as the main format used by Fireworks - it has the advantage (although not always utilised) of having the ability to hold vector and bitmap information.
You'll find it's almost always worth keeping the base Fireworks files you eventually export to GIF or JPEG, so you can easily edit them in the future

A survey conduced by Public Policy Polling shows Chris Murphy with a 48-42 lead over Linda McMahon. Last month, the survey showed a 48-44 Murphy lead.
Although McMahon leads the race with independents by a wide 51-38 margin, women support Murphy by 54-35 margin. Polls from other organizations showed a much tighter race.
McMahon's campaign dismissed the results.
"While all polls are just a snapshot in time, PPP's newest findings in Connecticut's U.S. Senate race must be noted for what they are: Democratic numbers from a Democratic polling firm [editor's note: this links to the campaign site]," said Corey Bliss, campaign manager. "In an effort to resurrect his failing campaign, Congressman Murphy's Washington cronies have recently given him money, staffers, and now brand new poll results."
Fourth District
A new ad for Jim Himes highlights the congressman's fiscal record, but his opponents insists that the claim that Himes is dedicated to "responsibly reducing our deficits" is untrue.
A letter from John Puskar, Steve Obsitnik's campaign manager asks the president of Cablevision to stop airing the ad. According to the letter:
"Because the advertisement conveys messages that are plainly disproven by fact, we respectfully demand that your station immediately stop airing the advertisement and that no further airings of this misleading content be allowed on your station."
Third District
Rosa DeLauro (D): Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is a popular target for DeLauro, and that trend continued on Facebook.
"Who are the 47% that Mitt Romney doesn't care about? They are seniors receiving social security, students and recent graduates paying college loans, unemployed individuals looking for work, and working families making ends meet to pay their bills. On November 6th let's make our voice heard. Let's show Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan and the Republicans in Congress that we do care about all of America's people."
Wayne Winsley (R) will be in Milford on Sunday to speak to supporters. Details on the location can be found on this event listing.
Fifth District
Elizabeth Esty (D) recently received more backing from unions. The American Federation of Teachers gave her their endorsement, reports the Register Citizen.
Andrew Roraback (R) released his first campaign ad. Titled "Solutions", the advertisement paints Roraback as a remedy to partisan gridlock in Washington D.C.

A delusional Briggs barged in on Wlad's workout session the other day in his continued quest for a big-money fight.
Tyson Fury has a big fight coming up in July, but he always has time to take a shot at Wladimir Klitschko when asked.
Wladimir Klitschko and Kubrat Pulev are now 100% officially set to meet on September 6, as K2 won a purse bid and the venue is set.
Bermane Stiverne will have to make his first defense against undefeated Deontay Wilder.
Kubrat Pulev will get his crack at Wladimir Klitschko later this year, as the IBF has ordered the fight, and it's already being worked on for the fall.
Wladimir Klitschko had no trouble with Alex Leapai on Saturday in Germany, smashing the Samoan in five rounds.
Wladimir Klitschko routed Alex Leapai over five rounds this afternoon in Germany, with no surprises in the process.
Wladimir Klitschko meets Alex Leapai this afternoon from Germany. Here's how you can watch the fight.
Few people are giving Alex Leapai a chance to beat Wladimir Klitschko, but the working gameplan is already out there for him to study. Bad Left Hook's fight analyst Connor Ruebusch takes a look at...
Wladimir Klitschko faces Alex Leapai today in Germany for the WBA, IBF, and WBO world heavyweight titles.

JOSE VALDIVIA, RAIL TRIP, WINNER: "Going into the far turn, he started picking up the bridle and that's a good thing. He was going so easily, I didn't want to take hold of him at that point. I was a little bit surprised at the wire, but he picked it up again on the gallop out. Based on the way he galloped out, I'm confident he's got a lot left in the tank and I'm confident he'll get a mile and a sixteenth at Hollywood Park."
RAFAEL BEJARANO, DAKOTA PHONE, SECOND: "When I see a jockey like that holding his horse, I don't want to scream too much and let him know I'm coming. So, I just kept riding my horse. My horse was trying and almost passed him, but he was a better horse. We made one run in the stretch."
RON ELLIS, RAIL TRIP, WINNER: "He (Jose Valdivia Jr.) was just trying to take it as easy as he could, and he said he didn't think that horse (Dakota Phone) was coming that fast, so, luckily, it worked out. He (Rail Trip) doesn't handle this track as well as he does at Hollywood (Park). He was trying to make it as easy as possible on him, but that's cutting it close, and even he (Valdivia) said when he came back, 'Sorry about that.'"
NOTES: The winning owners are Mace and Samantha Siegel of Beverly Hills, who race as Jay Em Ess Stable.

I have a serious leak in what seems to be the transmission front shaft seal on my 46 super A, a leak on the PTO shaft under the seat ( which seems pretty straight forward to replace) and a leak on the diff. where the fertilizer cog use to go.
The tranny leak apears to be the most challanging of the three. How diffcult of a job is it to get access to the seal? Anyone know of a shop manual detailing the sequence of the repair? Any special tools required? Should I seek a repair shop? How much should a shop charge to replace the seal?
Thanks in advance for any help!!

Modern civilization began right here in the Tigris-Euphrates river valley. Also known as the Fertile Crescent or Mesopotamia, this is the place where, six thousand years ago, agriculture, writing and mathematics were brought into widespread use.
The term "Middle East" comes from the British navy, which used it to describe the countries on the trade route from Europe to India and China. Everything from Afghanistan to Morocco may possibly be classified as "middle eastern", depending on whom you ask -- and when.
Only a partial list of past Empires in the middle eastern territory includes Sumeria, Babylonia, Persia, the Ottoman Empire and the Roman Empire!
When northern Europe was still lurking about in slimy cold stone castles playing chess, the Middle East was enjoying the flowers of poetry, luxurious craftsmanship, music and literature. In fact, the Renaissance in Europe was partly inspired by stories brought back from the middle east by travelers along the trade route.
Strategic location, religious history and the world's largest supply of crude oil have kept the Middle East at the center of world activity for centuries. The saga continues.

Weather permitting (as always), we have reached the "women one day, men the next" portion of Wimbledon's second week. Agnieszka Radwanska and Maria Kirilenko will need to finish their match, but aside from that, Wednesday will belong to the men at the All England Club. Let's take a look at each quarterfinal match and make some more awful predictions.
No. 1 Novak Djokovic vs. No. 31 Florian Mayer
Man oh man, did Novak Djokovic look good on Monday in disposing of countryman Viktor Troicki. He made just 11 unforced errors in 25 games on Monday, and since dropping the first set of his third-round match versus No. 28 Radek Stepanek, he has won his last six sets, 6-2, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 and 6-3. He won his only meeting with Florian Mayer (7-5, 6-1 at Dubai in 2011), and he did so the way he's won most of his matches in the last couple of years: by completely dictating play on his serve (he won 85 percent of his first-serve points and landed two-thirds of his first serves) and saving something for the big points. Djokovic won eight of the 12 break points against Mayer (four of seven on Mayer's serve, four of five on his own) and controlled the match.
It is worth noting, though, that Mayer can punish weak second serves. He won 60 percent of Djokovic's second-serve points, and he has broken serve 16 times this fortnight (he broke Richard Gasquet six times in the fourth round). The Djokovic that we saw on Monday won't give Mayer any opportunities, but with a little bit of daylight, Mayer could still win a set or three.
Prediction: Djokovic in three.
No. 3 Roger Federer vs. No. 26 Mikhail Youzhny
The good news for Mikhail Youzhny is that he has indeed taken three sets from Roger Federer before, like he will have to do on Wednesday. The bad news: it took him 11 matches to do it. Granted, two of his three set wins have come on grass (including one in last year's Wimbledon Round of 16), but… they've played 13 sets. Federer beat Youzhny in four sets last year at the All England Club, and he won -- 6-1, 6-4 -- in the semifinals at Halle in June. In other words, it doesn't look particularly good for Youzhny, the 30-year-old Russian.
If Youzhny does have a chance in this one, he has no choice but to go all-out on his second serve. When they played in Halle last month, Youzhny won just 28 percent of his second-serve points. It was just 43 percent at Wimbledon last year. He seems more capable than some of doing damage to Federer's serve, but it just doesn't matter if his own is getting destroyed. He could be at an advantage if Federer's back is tight after he tweaked it on Monday, but a full-strength Federer wins this in straight sets.
Prediction: Federer in three.
No. 4 Andy Murray vs. No. 7 David Ferrer
If I ever found out that David Ferrer was total jerk off the court, it would break my heart. He's such a good easy-to-like scrapper.— Bill Connelly (@SBN_BillC) July 3, 2012
For all intents and purposes, David Ferrer is the 2.0 version of Michael Chang, scrappy as hell and capable of chasing every shot down, but very capable of putting some pace on the ball and hitting passing shot after passing shot if you are overly aggressive. He is giving up six inches and 25 pounds to the not-exactly-monstrous Andy Murray, but the two have split their 10 all-time matches. Of course, they have never played on grass, and four of Ferrer's wins have come on clay (he's 1-5 on hard courts), but still, we probably won't get very far writing off Ferrer. Just ask Murray, whose 2012 French Open run came to an end in the quarterfinals at the hands of Ferrer.
Ferrer has found his footing on the grass better this year than he ever had before, but let's not overstate things: Murray is still the clear favorite here. His serve completely let him down against Ferrer in Paris -- his first-serve percentage was just 53 percent, and he was broken 10 times -- but it's more dangerous on grass. That, and Murray seems to be playing better as the tournament progresses. He struggled to deal with monster server Ivo Karlovic in the second round (he dropped one set and won another in a tie-breaker), and he couldn't shake Marcos Baghdatis until the fourth set in the third round. But he easily disposed of Marin Cilic in the fourth round, and he's paced himself well. A win would give Murray his fourth straight Wimbledon semifinal bid, and it's really difficult to pick against him right now.
Prediction: Murray in four.
No. 5 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga vs. No. 27 Philipp Kohlschreiber
No single player has benefited more from Nadal's shocking loss to Lukas Rosol more than Philipp Kohlschreiber. Instead of facing Nadal in the third round, Kohlschreiber has advanced to the quarterfinals without having to actually face a seeded opponent. He whipped a tired Rosol, then ended the feel-good run of Brian Baker with a straight-set win on Tuesday. (Granted, Kohlschreiber did beat Nadal on grass in June, so maybe he'd have had a chance to pull an upset of his own, but one has to assume he'd have rather played Rosol.)
The run of good luck in Kohlschreiber's draw comes to an end when he faces Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, the "French but still athletic" fifth-seed who eliminated his first seeded opponent, Mardy Fish, on Tuesday. Tsonga reached the semifinals at Wimbledon in 2011 and has taken five of six career meetings versus Kohlschreiber (including the last four in straight sets), but the two have never met on grass. If Kohlschreiber can keep landing his first serve and keep racking up the winners like he has thus far in the fortnight, he might give himself a really nice chance to reach his first slam semifinal.
Prediction: Tsonga in four.

Ellsbury ends stolen-base drought
Red Sox speedster still leads league despite slump on bases
KANSAS CITY -- It was hard enough to believe that speedster Jacoby Ellsbury went 26 games without stealing a base before recording two thefts on Tuesday. But perhaps even stranger is that Ellsbury, entering play on Wednesday, still led the American League with 37 stolen bases.
"I was thinking, 'Yeah, the league kind of tightened down on the bases.' I hadn't even looked at it and I was like, 'How am I still in first place? I haven't stolen a base in a month.' I don't know. I was surprised," said Ellsbury.
Manny Delcarmen joked that the entire bullpen gave Ellsbury a standing ovation when he broke the dry spell.
Much like hits, stolen bases can come in bunches and disappear for a while. Ellsbury's drought on the bases went from July 2 to Aug. 4.
He notices how much tighter opponents are playing him.
"Definitely, you can see they have a little game plan, and I'm seeing a lot more pitchouts and a lot more slide steps," said Ellsbury. "A lot more [pickoff attempts]. The biggest thing is just getting on base and giving myself opportunities to steal."
Ellsbury, a rookie, still has a shot of tying or passing Tommy Harper for most stolen bases in a season by a Red Sox player. Harper stole 54 bases for the 1973 Red Sox.
One thing Ellsbury didn't lose during his stolen-base sabbatical was confidence.
"I knew it was just a matter of time before I got back on track and got in a rhythm and going again," said Ellsbury.
