Sand and Sandbags Available to the Public
The City of Manitou is providing pre-filled sandbags to the public and sand and empty sandbags that may be self-filled. Pre-filled sandbags can be obtained outside the Public Works gate at 101 Banks place. There is also a dumpster on the side of the road behind Mansions Park with sand and sand bags that the public is welcome to take and fill.
Mitigation Ideas for Reducing Flood Loss
FEMA offers a comprehensive and detailed booklet called Protecting Your Home and Property From Flood Damage, that includes useful information on property cleanup, selecting a contractor, repair tips for a flood-damaged property, and mitigation suggestions and diagrams to flood-proof your home.
Useful Tips to Protect Your Property

Check to see if you have flood insurance (homeowner policies seldom cover flood events). Property owners and renters can get flood insurance. Coverage may be obtained through local insurance agents familiar with flood insurance, or an agent may be located on the web at floodsmart.gov, or through NFIP at (888) 379-9531.
- Do not dump trash, limbs, leaves or other debris into drainage channels whether they are dry or flowing.
- Keep all drainages and creeks on your property free of limbs and debris.
- Report clogged drainage channels, creeks, or storm drains to the Public Works Department as soon as possible.
- Take a look at what the Public Works Stormwater Division does for you: Drainage System Maintenance Standard Operating Procedures

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - He lost his left leg in a motorcycle crash, when a student driver hit him in June. But San Diego Police Detective Chappie Hunter has made a remarkable recovery and Sunday in Mission Bay, he proved his disability isn't holding him back.
Surrounded by his family and friends, Hunter put on this jetpack at Jetpack America's Flight Center and flew over Mission Bay.
Despite the accident that cost him his leg, Hunter says he is determined to live a normal life.
"Ok, I lost my leg. But mentally, I'm good. Nothing else happened to me. I can still see my family. You know, my wife and my kids. The most important thing in the world to me. I can still be his daddy," Hunter explained. "And for me to be able to come out and work hard to get to this point where I can do something like this, hopefully, it just motivates other people to want to do the same thing."
Hunter flew the jetpack to raise money for the Challenged Athletes Foundation, which helped him obtain his prosthetic leg.

TRI-CITIES, Wash. -- We may not know which, but at least we know a Mid-Columbia Conference team will win the 3A district-regional title. All four schools swept the GSL earlier this week. Kennewick will host the tournament this Saturday at Roy Johnson Field. In fact two schools will advance to the next round. Saturday will be exciting with all of the league familiarity.
"It's going to be fantastic, you know all four schools have great student sections they travel well with their parents, parents are really supportive. it's, there's a lot of ties it's going to be a fun atmosphere it's going to be a really cool experience, great experience for everyone playing," Kennewick head coach A.J. Marquardt said.
"That place is going to be juiced. You know there's going to be a lot of people, a lot of energy it going to be a lot of emotions and you know the fans are going to be there. It's going to be packed, it's going to be energetic and everyone going to be rubbing shoulders together and puffing their chests, because we're all in the yard together," Southridge head coach Tim Sanders added.

Parcel Tax Makes Renters Winners and Condo Owners Losers
Original post made by frank on Mar 20, 2009
The parcel tax is unfair. Anything on top of the established property tax should be a user fee.
on Mar 21, 2009 at 2:08 am
Perhaps those are the grounds for challenging the parcel tax in court if it passes. :)
on Mar 21, 2009 at 4:50 pm
With Obama planning to limit tax deductions of mortgage interest for those making a household income of $250K or more, coupled with a possible parcel tax, more than half of Ptown residents are better renting than owning. Now, that will hurt your home values.

Just a reminder that we are restricting all posts related to the June 2 parcel tax measure to registered users of the Pleasanton Weekly Town Square forum. We have found that this keeps the conversations more civil and focused without any restriction on what posters say or the opinions they express.

Bank of America posted a quarterly profit on Thursday, boosted by loan growth, improving credit quality and one-off gains on asset sales, sending its shares up as much as 7 percent.More details are available in Bank of America's press release. I found this excerpt interesting:
But the focus turned to the bank's capital levels, which although higher than before, still lag rivals when it comes to meeting the global regulatory standard known as Basel III.
Average deposit balances rose nearly $25 billion to $1.03 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2011 from $1.01 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2010.Deposits are up which isn't good news for deposit rates

Genachowski Out At FCC
Julius Genachowski has served as FCC Chairman since his appointment in June 2009. Over the years, he has spearheaded a number of projects, including the ambitious National Broadband Plan. Now he's leaving that all behind.
The New York Times reports that Genachowski has announced his resignation from the FCC Friday morning. He's expected to formally leave the Commission in the coming weeks.
This isn't the first departure from the FCC in recent weeks. Commissioner Robert M. McDowellrecently announced that he would be leaving the Commission after serving since 2006. Both departures leave the FCC with two open spots that are to be filled in the coming months.
Aside from the National Broadband Plan, Genachowski's departure throws the fate of other FCC pet projects into question. For one, the FCC was trying to sell unused TV airwaves to mobile carrier operators. Broadcasters resisted the sale, however, and it remains to be seen if Genachowski's successor will continue to push for the sale.
Another plan with an unclear fate it the City Gigabit Challenge. It pushed for each state to offer at least one gigabit network by 2015. It could be just the kick the Internet needs in the US, but his successor may not encourage such an endeavor.
Despite such concerns, Genachowski is confident in the FCC's ability to continue its work:
Hopefully that work includes delivering broadband to the 19 million Americans who still don't have it.

The cypher actually had to be broken numerous times. I think it was sometime in 1942, the Kreigsmarine introduced a new version of Enigma that had a fourth rotor added to it. Also the U-boats began to limit the length of their transmissions to evade radio direction finders which gave the Allies limited number of characters to analyze. Took nearly a year before regular deciphering of U-boat message traffic could resume.
On top of cracking Enigma, the US Navy began deploying hunter killer squadrons consisting of escort carriers and destroyer escorts. The aircraft from these squadrons were outfitted with sonobuoys and acoustic homing torpedoes in addition to bombs and depth charges. These squadrons were devastating to the U-boats. None the less, the fact that such a small boat often required large amounts of resources to combat speaks to the magnitude of just the threat of a single submarine. To this day, submarines and mines still are the weapon of choice for nations that for whatever reason cannot afford to build and maintain a large navy.
In the end the loses reached the point where it wasn't an issue of being able to build enough U-boats, but rather finding enough personnel to crew them.

Sometimes when i receive message and when i open it and read, message icon on the top of the screen is saying that i STILL have new message, even that I have read it. When i scroll down that new bar from belle (wifi, blootooth and notifications), there is also shown - 1 NEW message. I have to read it FEW times (same message) and after that my phone shows it as read.
Does not happen if default view of incoming messages is inbox folder. Only if deault view is conversations. And I like onverstaions.

Hi Betz,
First, go to Menu > Messages > Options > View folders > Options > SIM messages and check whether you have some messages stored there. If you do, delete them and see if this fixes the issue.
If there are no messages diplayed under SIM messages or if deleting them doesn't help, try a software update. Connect the phone to Nokia Suite and click on the green arrow to update or reinstall the current software on your phone.
Let me know how you get on!

I bought Nokia C7 in june 2010 and i found it very useful but after installing Belle software it started some problem in messages. Whenever i send a message it shows that "Feature not supported", but on the next click it goes smothly. This is the first problem regarding messages but there's another one and that is really make blunder for me. The problem is - if i am sending a msg to any contact, supposr i type "Hi How are you" and click on send then it goes with an older msg attached with it.

There's more drama in the US Airways bid for American Airlines.
This time, American's CEO Tom Horton is firing back at his counterpart in Phoenix.
With a merger of the two airlines looking all the more likely, Horton is now speaking out, and he's setting the merger record straight.
The American Airlines chief told the Associated Press Wednesday he was the one who approached US Airways about a possible merger... not the other way around.
Horton said US Airways needs American more, and frankly called the carrier's heavy overtures to merge "desperate."
US Airways CEO Doug Parker has been pushing hard to combine with American Airlines. He has won support from of American's unions while giving a boost to his company's stock and profits.
Horton said he floated the idea of a merger last September — two months before American declared bankruptcy.
But it's US Airways that started speaking publicly about it first.
Although Horton now says a merger was his idea, officially he is still not sold on the concept, insisting he would prefer to keep American independent.

ahh okay. thank you(:
bleed just asked it -.-
Hey, I was wandering in Pangea if we all start out new, or some of us were already there at V.
Hey i had a question about one of your roll plays
Wow. I've been gone for a while....
Well it's non canon so that cuts out all that sort of thing. I believe I explained some of the ninja tools on the first page. Also You may want to look up what Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Fuinjutsu, and Genjutsu are. Oh and Chakra, but that shouldn't take very much time. Just go to Naruto Wiki
Hey I would like to invite you to join my Naruto RP! You can totally come if you want! I need more people and I don't want it to die!
Really? Hadn't noticed ;P. This will be fun. When writing my first post I realized Naomi's biggest flaw. I was like oh c*ap... Haha oh well you'll see it in there.
Coolio. I'll escape I suppose. Haha I'm watching Push right now. Coolest Shadow ever! Haha bye bye building.
Sorry I did this here. The site wont let me send a PM.
Which would you prefer to Role Play? Rescue her or she escapes too? I'm cool with either one. Also I wanted to ask about if I could have two other side characters. Naomi's brother and mother. Her mother is an expert pusher and her brother is a really good Shadow. They wont appear until much later in the roleplay. Her mother will try to guide Naomi by pushing her from afar. Her mother is locked up in some Division facility that Naomi can't find and possibly her mother doesn't want her to. Her brother is a free man who is good at getting in places he isn't wanted. The Division doesn't like that, hehe.

And Now, a Moment of Zen, Courtesy of Phillip Lim-------
Today is the (unofficial) first day of NYFW, and many of us are already whirling about in a fashion-induced frenzy. If, like us, you're looking for a way to restore the calm, we suggest having a gander at 3.1 Phillip Lim's Zen-like new campaign. Lensed by Vincent Van De Wijngaard and starring Anna De Rijk, the ads and corresponding film, which were shot on location in South Africa, are based on the concept of Freedom. "We all need to escape from time to time, and I wanted these images to be like a breath of fresh air," offered Lim. He also noted that, for Spring '14, which marks his third season producing a campaign, he aimed to abandon traditional advertising constraints. "There is so much pressure for campaigns to answer to so many requirements—does it identify the girl? Does it embody the brand? Does it feature the bag to buy for the season?—I just wanted to put all of that aside and really concentrate on the idea of Freedom. It's intrinsic to the brand as a whole," he asserted. "We are independent, and our independence affords us the freedom to be who we want to be. I think in an industry full of noise and pace, everyone would love a moment to take a deep breath."
Wise words from Mr. Lim. But, other than staring at his Spring snaps, what's the designer's secret for warding off pre-show stress? "I wish there were a magic formula," he admitted. "It has to be mind over matter. Getting as much sleep as possible is the main thing–but that's no big secret!"
Have a first look at Lim's soothing Spring photographs (above) and short (below) here, exclusively on Style.com.

Pacers forward Danny Granger could miss another week with a sore left knee.
Granger missed the first 54 games with the same injury and sat out the second half of Sunday night's victory over Chicago after re-aggravating the knee injury.
Just hours before Indiana and Boston were to meet Wednesday night, the team issued a statement saying an MRI done on Granger's knee showed no new damage to the knee. The team says he will be re-evaluated next week.
Granger has led the Pacers in scoring each of the last five seasons. The team did not make a move before the February trade deadline in hopes Granger would give them another outside shooting presence.
The Pacers (38-22) lead the Central Division and are No. 2 in the Eastern Conference.

Warden wants satellite TV for 'MNF'
ATLANTA - The warden of the Clayton County Correctional Institution wants permission to spend money for a "management tool," satellite TV to keep his 226 inmates occupied watching football.
Warden Frank Taylor is asking the Clayton County Commission to let him sign up for direct-broadcast satellite service for less than $100 a month. It would be funded with money collected at the prison's commissary and pay phones, which last year amounted to $41,000.
"The reason is 'Monday Night Football' is now on cable," he said. "Although it might seem funny, when you have 90 percent of inmates watching something, it is a management tool for the institution."
Currently, he said, inmates in the prison's five dormitories only get two TV channels, often with poor reception.
Taylor asserted that every state prison already has cable or satellite television, but the Georgia Department of Corrections says that isn't so.
"Our televisions have antennas," said department spokeswoman Tracy Smith.
The Clayton County Commission will vote on Taylor's request next week.

Head coach John Fox on if they have to adjust their game plan now that Texans QB Matt Schaub will be playing instead of QB Case Keenum
"A little bit. We'll look at that. We just found that out as we were out at practice. We had an idea-anytime you have a thumb injury on your throwing hand it's a little problematic. It's not like it comes as a total surprise."
Fox on how the loss of Texans RB Ben Tate affects Houston's run game
"They've got a couple of young guys that are playing well. They've been getting more time as the season wears on, but obviously [they are] capable. They've got an excellent running attack no matter who they have back there, it's a very efficient running attack."
Fox on how dangerous a team like the Texans is at this point in the season
Must Reads
"Any time you go out there, I mean it's professional football. They've got good players. I mentioned earlier in the week, their two inside guys on defense might be as good-or playing as good-as anybody in the league. They're all dangerous, that's why we line up and play."
Fox on if he's seen a drop in production from 2012 to 2013 with Texans DE J.J. Watt
"No, I think sometimes just look at sacks as the evaluation stat for D-Lineman. But to be able to look at it every day, there is a lot more to it than just sacks. I think he's having a great year."
Quarterback Peyton Manning on Houston having No. 2 ranked pass defense
"I think all defense probably starts up front. They have a very disruptive defensive line. They have some outstanding players up there that do a good job disrupting the run game and the pass game with their penetration. They have some guys with really good cover skills on the back end."
Manning on how dangerous a team with nothing to lose can be
"I think we've done a good job of treating all our opponents the same. We don't look at records, we look at the tape. On offense we see a good defense. We see some outstanding players when you're talking about guys like [DE Antonio] Smith and [DE J.J.] Watt and guys that can dominate a football game. We're still getting to know them. They kind of had some injuries. They got some new players playing from the last time we played them so that's what we're focused on and I think we'll do a good job getting ready to play."
Linebacker Von Miller on preparing differently because QB Matt Schaub is the starter
"No, Matt Schaub is a good quarterback. He's been a great quarterback for a long time. He's made some mistakes-probably more mistakes than what he's usually been doing but he's a great quarterback. He can make all the throws. We certainly saw what type of quarterback he was last year. Their record is not a clear indicator of what type of team they are. I think they are great team; they have players in every position just like every other team in the National Football League. You can't go out there half stepping it; they are a great team, they've battled. They've just come up on the short end of the stick in some of these games. Like I said, this Texans team, their record is not a clear indicator of what type of team they are."
Running back Montee Ball on Texans DE J.J. Watt
"I knew he'd be a great player just because of his mindset at Wisconsin. He worked like he was on a mission every day and that kind of spread out throughout our team at Wisconsin while he was there. Watching him on film right now, he's a great player. We have to do some things to [prevent] his motor getting going but we just have to play our game."
Wide receiver Andre Caldwell on what the offense needs to improve on for the Houston game
"We need to improve on everything. I think the No. 1 goal is to get better every week, every day for practice. There is no one particular thing. We've just got to get better at every little thing every week."
Cornerback Chris Harris Jr. on what the Broncos defense has to do better against the Texans
"Houston, they're going to try to pound the ball on us. That has always been their staple. A lot of outside-zone running. They're going to do what they do. They have great skill positions."
Harris on what changes with the Texans starting QB Matt Schaub over Case Keenum
"Schaub has a lot more experience. Him coming in here-he beat us last year. He knows us. He has that experience against us. We definitely have to be ready for him."
Harris on Texans WR Andre Johnson
"He's been a very physical guy. That has been his staple is just outmuscling guys this whole year. That is who the quarterback is throwing the ball to. He has 99 catches this year and that is remarkable-just being the No. 1 receiver and everybody knowing he's getting the ball. So we know that he's getting the ball. [WR DeAndre Hopkins], he has great speed-the rookie-and great ability. So we've got to try to do our best to disrupt him, too."
Safety Duke Ihenacho on what changes with the Texans starting quarterback Matt Schaub instead of Case Keenum
"Nothing. We've still got to play our technique. Same thing: stop the run. We're going to approach it the same exact way. We understand that he's more of a veteran quarterback, so he's probably less likely to make some of the mistakes that Keenum makes. But nonetheless, he's a good quarterback and we've got to respect him and go into that game with a lot of urgency."

A lovely surprise
My family of four enjoyed a wonderful weekend in this well-appointed and comfortable cottage. We have rented many up north homes for ski weekends and we never quite know what we'll get when we arrive. We were pleasantly surprised to walk into this clean, cozy, warm, and spacious home. The kitchen and bathrooms are fabulous! Comfy beds, quality towels, heated bathroom floors...the small details make all the difference. I would return to this location without hesitation.
Great Place…Great Location!
We were two families and the house worked out perfect. It had everything we needed and enough room for everyone to be comfortable. Great owners and a perfect location to the resort.
50th Wedding Anniversary Family Gathering
This was the perfect lake house for our family of 14 (8adults & 6 teens) Plenty of room inside, large screened-in porch & huge deck. The 1st night were were treated to a spectacular sunset and were lulled a sleep to the sounds of the waves lapping on the shore....AAaaaa. We are a family of great cooks, so we made good use of the well equipped kitchen and the gas grill. We brought most of our food as the IGA is 25 mins. away. (You can get bread, milk and eggs in the village.) Our favorite hangout was the sandy beach and fire pit for S'mores. (So glad we brought our kayaks and we used them every day. We had bikes too, but did not use them much) The Tunnel of Trees, pot pies from Good Hart General store, Zip line at Boyne Highland, shopping in Petoskey, Mackinac Is., Leggs Inn, we did it all and still had plenty of time on the lake. Early a.m. strolls along the shoreline looking for Petoskey stones and watching the bald eagles were my special "me" time. The owners are easy to work with and respond promptly to any questions or concerns. We left relaxed and refreshed and wanting to return.

Sorrow for departing Winchester publican as pub closes
3:17pm Thursday 5th June 2014 in News By Charlotte Neal, Reporter
"I FEEL devastated."
Those were the words of a pub landlord who has been forced to leave his Winchester home and business, just eight months after uprooting his family to work there.
Mark Vincent, 42, along with his wife Jo, 44, and son Sam, 11, lived and worked at The Ship Inn, in Wales Street, but have been booted out after Marston's sold it to Hampshire-based nursery firm Yellow Dot.
The couple closed the doors for the last time last Friday night after a leaving party, and said that their regulars were in tears about the closure.
Mr Vincent said: "I'm gutted really. I feel devastated for everybody – they found a safe pub where they could drink and now it's gone. Loads of them were crying, a lot of people have grown up with the pub and it has been around for 40 years."
Mrs Vincent said that work men had virtually destroyed the interior before they had left on Monday.
"It was absolutely awful," she said.
"Three work men claw hammered every picture and every mirror and took the bar apart. It was soul destroying. Everything attached they took out. They were ruthless, the place looks derelict now."
She added: "The worst part is that they have the keys until May 16, so I said 'why couldn't they have waited until we had left?' There is no reason to put us through that."
Winchester City Council registered a planning application on April 29 for a change of use for the building, which could see it transformed into a nursery catering for up to 70 children.
The family have moved back to the Isle of Wight, where they had left behind four children and five grandchildren.

KENNEWICK, Wash.-- Nearly 100 people packed into Kennewick City Hall Saturday morning for a town hall meeting with local lawmakers.
The town hall meeting saw a much higher attendance than usual.
Senator Sharon Brown, Representative Brad Klippert and Representative Larry Haler.
Came together to talk about the issues being discussed in the legislature now.
One topic that got a heated response by the public is education.
State funding is down and a recent school grading system has educators upset. Many spoke up about their frustrations and asked the lawmakers to be accountable for their constituents requests.
"What we are really focusing on in the senate is jobs, education and the budget. We're really trying very hard to keep social issues out so we can get legislation through that's going to help the state of Washington create more jobs," said Sen. Sharon Brown.
While education issues dominated the conversation Saturday, other bills regarding bee keeping to elderly living were brought up by citizens.
The legislators also expressed their plans to protect the second amendment in the house and senate this session.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - About 20,000 anglers are expected to turn out for the first day of the fishing season in Rhode Island.
Saturday is opening day for trout and general freshwater fishing. The state Department of Environmental Management planned to stock about 80,000 hatchery-raised trout in more than 100 ponds and streams.
Cass Pond in Woonsocket, Slater Park Pond in Pawtucket and Ponderosa Park Pond in Little Compton will be open just for children this weekend. "Opening Day'' fishing derbies are also being held Saturday for children in several locations.
State officials are warning fishermen of cold water temperatures. Even on warm days, the water can be in the 50s. The U.S. Coast Guard says boating accidents are five times more likely to be fatal if water temperatures fall below 60 degrees.

Sunday afternoon in Scottsdale, very near the end of spring training, the Colorado Rockies nearly suffered a catastrophic blow when superstar shortstop Troy Tulowitzki got struck on the left elbow by a fastball launched by Cleveland's Ubaldo Jimenez (here's the video, from ESPN).
Immediately after getting nailed, Tulowitzi threw up his arms and took a few steps toward the mound, and of course Jimenez charged toward Tulowitzki and the benches emptied for a rarely seen spring-training rhubarb. Though nothing further of consequence actually happened. Which isn't to suggest that everyone just agreed to get along.
It was the first pitch of Tulowitzki's first at-bat, and everyone who was there wasn't convinced that Jimenez's pitch just got away from him. From Troy Renck and Patrick Saunders (via The Denver Post), here's Colorado manager Jim Tracy after the game:
"It's the most gutless act I have seen in 35 years of professional baseball. I have lost all respect for him. To do something like that and walk down off the mound, and if there's any suggestion whatsoever that the ball got away, I don't want to hear any of that (expletive). He intentionally threw at him. He should be suspended. I am going to be very disappointed if he doesn't get suspended. He deserves to be," Tracy said, his voice rising in anger.
Gosh. Thirty-five years is a lot of years. But gutless is a word that's not often thrown around cavalierly.
Tulowitzki was forced from the game. Fortunately, x-rays later showed "no structural damage" and Tulowitzki's expected to be ready to play this Friday, when the Rockies open their season in Houston. That's what he says, anyhow.
There is a back-story here. Last summer, the Rockies traded Jimenez for what seemed like not a lot (though with Drew Pomeranz slated to join the Rockies' rotation later this month, that deal's looking better all the time). And now it seems they traded him they just didn't really want him around any more. And vice versa.
According to Renck and Saunders, this spring Jimenez has said he felt underappreciated by the Rockies, and recently he said playing for Cleveland was like "heaven" ... presumably compared to playing for Colorado. Then, this:
Tulowitzki responded in The Denver Post 10 days ago, saying, "If someone doesn't want to be here we always say, 'Please, go up to the manager and tell him you want to leave or that you don't think this is the best place for you.' That was kind of the case with him."
Those comments might be what got Tulowitzki a grotesquely swollen elbow but, it seems, nothing worse.
Meanwhile, there's still the matter of Jimenez's potential suspension. And one wonders if the Commissioner might get directly involved, as Bud Selig was reportedly in attendance at Scottsdale's Salt River Fields, though it's not been reported whether he was actually paying attention.

Yesterday, my three oldest grandsons and I went on an expedition to southwest Indiana. I'm big on I-69 and wanted them to see progress progressing. Gov. Mitch Daniels is way ahead of schedule building the Evansville to Bloomington segment, and so there are a number of places where the work is being done within eyesight of other roads. We watched the men and machines and it was just drop-dead georgous.
Finding the mine's entrance road, we drove in past the slurry pond and up onto the mountains for a little off-roading in our Honda Accord. We dragged the bottom of the car a number of times and had to back up a one-lane almost-vertical road after it became apparent we were about to get in the way of a huge earthmover. It was fun.
We backed up the mountain for about two-hundred yards or so, around curves while crunching rocks beneath us. We worked hard to stay ahead of the huge beast of an earthmover. When our evasion and rock-crunching was over, I glanced in the back seat and saw eldest grandson, Jonathan, with his head down deep in a book. I was amazed! So much adventure and so little interest! So I aked whether he'd been reading to take his mind off what was going on and he said, "yes." Some people close their eyes and others read books. I wished I'd had a book when we were four-wheeling above Ouray a couple years ago.
During the open-pit expedition, we stopped and talked to one the mine's foremen and he gave us a disquisition on President Obama's war on coal. I was entirely sympathetic being both a coal and open-pit lover. Strike three, right? Coal, open-pit mines, and new-terrain interstate highways. I've come a long way since 1974 when I pierced my left ear and read Barry Commoner. As Dylan puts it, "Ah, but I was so much older, then; I'm younger than that now."
Since a number of youth group work trips to Letcher County, Kentucky, in high school, I've loved coal. The smell of it burning brings a nostalgic bliss over me, so when we built our house two and a half years ago, I did my best to figure out how I could have a coal-burning fireplace insert. I failed. Apparently the inserts can't withstand coal's high temperatures--even cooler burning high-sulfur bituminous.
But hope springs eternal in this human pest. So if you know a way I can do it, write right away.
Before some of you reach high dudgeon, our children were part of the Harvard Six Cities Study and American Cancer Society Study of Particulate Air Pollution and Mortality when we lived just east of the Portage Wisconsin Power & Light coal-fired plant on the banks of the Wisconsin River. We weren't bother-ed by coal-fired plants then and we aren't bother-ed by them now. Just use scrubbers. God made the coal and it's going to burn sooner or later.
I like the smell of aviation fuel. It puts me right on the plane, wherever it is going.
I can see Josiah's mac and cheese in the last pic! Sounds like a fun time, I look forward to these sort of outings with my boys.
I'm glad you didn't have a book in Ouray. You were driving most of the time! At some point, I'll have to post the audio of all of us screaming like girls when we thought we were going to die.
Earth movers are by far one of the coolest types of heavy machinery to watch work.
We were in Southwestern Indiana this weekend too. We went to my home in Evansville, and gawked every time our path zig-zagged across the glorious I-69 corridor. Also, I really realized for the first time, this trip home, how much I love Evansville for not being too embarrassed to be a manufacturing town. It was so refreshing compared to being in Bloomington where industry and manufacturing are despised, the only noble pursuits being art or state-funded employment and degrees.
That's funny - I love the smell of driveway sealer and creosote. I think it's because I used to get odd jobs as a kid sealing driveways and coating fences with creosote. (Real creosote is rare these days, I think they banned it. I remember it bleaching out my the suntan on my arms for the summer - nasty stuff).
I also love the smell of the inside of an old truck - I think it's the vinyl, oil, grease and my grandpa's Camel's and coffee.
Basic Training, Ft. Knox in February. Another trainee asked, "Drill sergeant, why does the smoke from the coal fire [in the range office, of course. Trainees shiver.] smell so much like the CS gas in the gas chamber?"
Drill Sergeant: Why ask me? There's the chemist.
Answer: high sulfur coal has similar compounds to that in CS (tear) gas.
Needless to say, I can't say I share your enthusiasm for the smell of coal, but that does not mean it is not a valuable energy resource.
Sounds like a great outing with Grandpa and it makes me miss mine! Memories of my late grandfather include many "drives" in northern Minnesota -- to see the iron range, climb fire towers, picnic by big lakes, but my favorite would have to be the ones where we scouted for wildlife. My grandma still has the spiral-bound notebook where we tallied everything we found, including bear poops. :) He taught me how to drive well before I turned 16 and also pretended that we were all extremely lost one time just to test our critical thinking and survival skills. Grandparents have the opportunity (typically the time, experience, and patience) to teach their grandchildren so much!
Dear Tim,
I would think that the I-69 project's use of eminent domain to secure a path through the fields would dampen your enthusiasm for the project, especially in this time of increasing government overreach. Do you think this is an appropriate use of eminent domain?

Mum pays tribute to her lovely son Daniel Spargo-Mabbs after suspected ecstasy death
Updated 6:10pm Tuesday 21st January 2014 in News By Chris Baynes, Reporter
The mother of a Croydon schoolboy who died after an illegal rave has paid tribute to her "lovely son".
Daniel Spargo-Mabbs, aged 16, died yesterday afternoon after being taken ill at the party in Hayes, Hillingdon, in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Speaking at the family home in Addiscombe, his mother Fiona said her son had reassured her on Friday night he would return home safe.
Police today arrested two men, aged 18 and 19 and both from Croydon, on suspicion of supplying a controlled substance.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said officers and London Ambulance Service had attended an "illegal rave" at an industrial site in Pump Lane, Silverdale Road, at 4am on Saturday after receiving reports of an unconscious 16-year-old boy.
He was taken to a west London hospital believed to suffering from a drug overdose.
Daniel, a student at Archbishop Tenison's Church of England High School, was later transferred to second hospital in central London, where he lost his battle for life at lunchtime yesterday.
Earlier today, Richard Parrish, the school's headteacher, led tributes to the 16-year-old today, saying "the world is the poorer without with him".
Mrs Spargo-Mabbs said: "My boys are the loveliest boys in the whole world.
"We are struggling. It was his first time doing anything like this. It is important to me that people know that.
"If just one thing could come out of this it is that this could happen to anyone. He was a 16-year-old boy and he did something that boys do."
She added: "A few years ago I heard a talk by murder victim Jimmy Mizen's mum and she said that something that comforted her was that she had told Jimmy she loved him and had given him a hug and a kiss before he had left the house.
"After that I always did the same with my boys and it became an in joke. Danny always used to say "I love you too mum, I promise I won't die".
"And that's exactly what he said when he went out on Friday. He didn't keep that promise. But he didn't know - if he had known, he wouldn't have done it."
Daniel's brother Jacob, 18, said: "He was the most lovely, easy-going, pleasant guy you could meet. He got along with everyone."

A college student who spent four days locked up in a windowless cell has reached a four-million dollar settlement with the federal government.
Last year, 25-year old Daniel Chong was taken into custody during a DEA drug raid in San Diego. After questioning him, officials told him to stay put and said they'd be back to get him. But Chong says agents forgot about him and ignored his cries for help.
When they finally found him, he was severely dehydrated, and spent the next five days in the hospital.
The DEA has new policies, including daily inspections and cameras in cells.

This from Joel Sherman's twitter:
#Yankees have reached 1-yr agreement with Randy Winn pending physical
The deal will pay Winn about $2 million, according to Buster Olney.
The Yankees now have Winn, Curtis Granderson, Nick Swisher, Brett Gardner and Rule 5 draftee Jamie Hoffmann to fill the outfield, meaning any remaining rumors of Johnny Damon ending up in New York should now be squashed.
So where will Damon end up? Maybe he'll return to Oakland, though the A's recent signing of Ben Sheets makes that less economically feasible for the A's.
Another report has Damon's agent Scott Boras trying to get the Cincinnati Reds interested in his 36-year-old client. It is hard to believe a National League team would be interested in Damon, whose defense has drastically declined in recent years and whose throwing arm is a wet noodle, aptly described here by Ben Reiter:
If we were to create a "no-tool player" -- a Frankenstein's monster crudely stitched together using only the worst individual skills possessed by active major leaguers -- we might give him the foot speed of one of the senior Molina brothers. We might give him the glove of Adam Dunn. We might give him the power of Luis Castillo, and the ability to hit for average of Jack Cust. (We could name this dreadful player, my colleague Joe Posnanski would probably tell you, "Yuniesky Betancourt.")
Of this, though, there is little doubt: We would bestow upon this unfortunate creature the throwing arm of Johnny Damon.
Only time will tell where Damon will end up, but two things seem to be certain: He won't be back in New York, and he won't get the $13 million a year he was reportedly asking the Yankees for earlier in the off season.
