The Broncos are seriously considering adding another running back to play behind second-year RB Knowshon Moreno, we hear. Former Eagles RB Brian Westbrook visited Denver on Thursday after meeting with the Redskins earlier this week. Some observers are skeptical about the chances of Westbrook signing with the Broncos, and the role he would play in a backfield that already features Moreno, Correll Buckhalter and J.J. Arrington is far from clear. Head coach Josh McDaniels has not shied away from signing veteran free agents who come from winning organizations, though, and likely wouldn't have met with Westbrook if he didn't have a role in mind for him. Sources don't expect the Broncos to break up their 1-2 punch of Moreno and Buckhalter, and Arrington is a candidate to return kickoffs. Westbrook, who was sidelined by concussions for eight games last season, could contribute as a third-down back.

Indeed, my Zeiss 21mm and my Canon TS-E 24mm II use 82mm filters but I guess this comes down to specific lens design. The question I answered however, was about the big white telephotos...The larger the diameter the faster the lens. In fact Diameter = (Focal Length) / Aperture.
But still some lenses have a larger front than would be absolutely essential (example: 100L/2.8 @67mm & 100 non-L @58mm).
A larger diameter might be required for a) the addition if IS, b) afaik it also results in a better bokeh and c) sometimes it's absolutely unecessary like with the 17-40L that could be smaller but is built to accept the "standard" 77mm filter size.
The maximum f-stop (focal ratio) is focal length divided by maximum aperture.
The aperture is the diameter of the iris opening inside the lens. This is equal to or smaller than the front element of the lens. The filter size is larger than the front element and the diameter of the lens is necessarily going to be wider to accommodate electronics and gearing for focusing and zooming etc...
e.g. 50m f/1.4 has an aperture of (50/1.4) = 35.7mm. The front element only slightly larger. The filter size is 58mm and the lens diameter is 73.7mm.

FSFE Founder Georg Greve Awarded German Cross of Merit
Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) founding president Georg Greve was awarded the German Cross of Merit for his intervention on the part of free software and open standards.
The North Sea islander Georg Greve was given the award April 27 at the German Embassy in Berne, Switzerland. The honor was based on Greve's service as founder and long-time president of the FSFE, European speaker for the GNU Project and author of the "Brave GNU World" column for Linux Magazine. Emphasis was on his promoting open standards, of particular interest to the German state department, considering the recent Document Freedom Day.
In 2009 Greve gave up his eight-year presidency of the FSFE to Karsten Gerloff to become CEO of Kolab Systems in Zurich. The FSFE recently was granted the Theodor Heuss Medal for its vision and setting an example of democratic principles and collaborative values.

Calling the water release system in place "poisonous" to Southwest Florida, state leaders scrambled for short term solutions at a meeting in Martin County Thursday night.
They are looking to find a way out of the mess. But the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is pushing back—saying only Mother Nature can spare us now.
The system in place makes Southwest Florida the dumping ground for Florida's excess water. One leader even called the Caloosahatchee River the state's septic tank.
Those in power reassured that Southwest Florida is not being ignored—but they did not commit to visit either.
With sea life vanishing, those in Martin County screamed out for mercy.
"The pelicans are disappearing, the dolphins are disappearing," said protester Russell Heuer.
State Senator Joe Negron represented the infuriated voices that jam-packed the special senate meeting in Stuart, Fla.
"Come on! It's 2013. There has to be a better way to manage water than to turn Martin County and Southwest Florida into septic tanks for the state," said Sen. Negron. "I don't care who comes up with a solution. I don't care who gets credit. I just want to see billion of gallons of polluted water stop flowing into our communities."
Despite the fact that Southwest Florida is receiving double the amount of nutrient rich water, you could count on your hand our elected leaders in attendance.
Lee County's Lizbeth Benacquisto and others blasted the ongoing water releases. Local leaders say a look at our shorelines hints disaster looms on the horizon.
"We'll make our strong argument today that the west coast needs boots on the ground to see the effect—seeing is believing. We understand the devastation," said Sanibel Mayor Kevin Ruane.
With across the board cooperation, some in power argued relief is possible. They want to see more water storage on state and private properties.
But the water's gatekeepers damper any optimistic outlook.
"There are no short term solutions which will stop water releases. They may give us flexibility on the high pound," explained Alan Dodd, U.S. Army Corp of Engineers.
Sanibel's mayor insists that if people stand up, the water invasion might stop.
"It's not too late. As someone who came here during a Hurricane Charley, we'll rebuild; we'll come back," said Mayor Ruane.
And those struggling for answers on the east coast are wondering where Southwest Florida's outrage went.
"Maybe the people need to be informed better," said Heuer.
They have made it clear that tourists will not return if the beautiful beach water isn't restored.
Local leaders speak out
Painting a dire situation, inside the special Senate Select Committee a handful of Southwest Florida leaders demanded action now -- although some of our most powerful politicians were a no-show.
Those present said they're sick and tired of Lee County being used as a "septic tank" for this state.
"A picture is worth a thousand words, and our water is quick frankly dirtier than the congressman's," said Sanibel Mayor Kevin Ruane.
Fighting for his island's future, Ruane dared state leaders to visit.
"Quite frankly, if you really want to see the water, come over and visit us on the west coast and have a meeting there," he said.
He fears the freshwater surging out of Lake Okeechobee may cripple our economy.
"I heard from an inn owner on Sanibel. He's lost about $10,000. Why? Because the water is dirty," Ruane said.
Our blackened coastlines could cost us dearly, says Fort Myers Beach Mayor Alan Mandel. He warns the fiscal storm is still forming.
"How much and what the magnitude is of this problem is going to unfold over time," Mandel said.
Mandel tells us tourists won't return to dark shores and demands more water storage near Lake Okeechobee, which would stop the ongoing releases.
"Washington needs to pass the bills which will help this area," Mandel said.
He compares this dirty water to the Gulf oil spill and suggests planning a damage control strategy.
"We need to create a fund for when this is situation is resolved and when the water is at equilibrium again," Mandel said.
As state senators scramble for solutions, our local leaders make a public plea to safeguard Southwest Florida's livelihood.
"Our environment is our economy," Ruane said.
Impact on tourism
Most hotels on Fort Myers Beach say they have had cancellations because of the dirty water and some visitors are say they're going to think twice about making a return visit.
At the Mango Street Inn on Fort Myers Beach, owner Dan Andre says it's the allure of blue water beaches out-of-towners flocking in for, so the murky waters taking over the Gulf is not a welcome sight.
"They come here for nice water, nice beaches and right now you're seeing a lot of dead grass up on the beaches," Andre said.
Andre says just this week a major reservation canceled. The reason? Dirty water.
A Fort Myers Beach Chamber of Commerce survey shows 90 percent of surveyed hotels say they have had cancellations because of the water, and 70 percent of those asked say some tourists expressed they would never come back.
"I was a little bit disappointed I thought it would be more walk out clear blue," said tourist Brittney Sieloff.
Visitors like Brittney and Jason Sieloff didn't realize the water would be an issue until they got here.
"Compared to where we're from it's beautiful, but it's not nothing you see online," Jason said.
Others say while the color of the water is unattractive it won't scare them away from Southwest Florida for good.
"This wouldn't change our minds to not come again to the Gulf side because we really like it...we really like the Gulf, we'll be here," a visitor said.
For businesses lucky enough to dodge any losses this year, some think next year will really tell how bad this water has made things.

Spurs keen on Nottingham Forest keeper Darlow (From Haringey Independent)

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Nottingham Forest's highly-rated young goalkeeper, Karl Darlow
Updated 9:59am Wednesday 11th June 2014 in Sport
Nottingham Forest's highly-rated young goalkeeper Karl Darlow is being targeted by Nottingham Forest, according to the Daily Mail.
The 23-year-old gloveman missed just three league games for the Tricky Trees last term, after establishing himself as the club's number one in 2013.
Darlow, who stands 6ft1in tall, started his career at Aston Villa before moving to the City Ground in 2006.
Loan spells with Newport County and Walsall gave Darlow his first taste of professional football, before dislodging Lee Camp as Forest's number one last year.
Spurs keeper Brad Friedel signed a one-year contract extension on Monday but third-choice Heurelho Gomes has been released and Hugo Lloris is being monitored by a number of sides.

Reviews for Bananas & Cream Pound Cake
Sort By :
This is a great recipe except for baking the pound cake in the 9 X 5 pan. It took 70 minutes to be done. Then trying to cut it to fit was impossible without leaving gaps. I would make it again only next time I will bake it in the 9 x 13 pan and adjust the cooking time.
Brought this to school as a Monday treat. It was a huge hit!
My family enjoyed this and I used a store bought pound cake ! The pudding layer is excellent!

Had a workshop on Tuesday and I asked my boy BdubleEdubleRun where to go. Hooked it up.
Smaller store in a quiet neighborhood in Old San Diego. Small parking lot which at night or during peak hours would be a bitch to park.
Atm- Lots of charm in here. Lots of coolers, lots of wood. Nice mom & pop feel. Deli on the left beer in the center and left with wines on the right.
Quality- A lot of great beer here along with other glasses I have never seen before. Lots of imports that I havent seen with US beers and lots of CA and SD locals.
Service- Didnt catch the guys name, but took about 10 minutes of me walking around before he offered a hey can I help you. Nice guy though.
Selection- Eclipse, Mikkeller, Fantome, Tilquin, Dupont, Bruery. You name it, they pretty much have it (didnt see Alpine though)
Food- N/A
Value- Was a pretty good deal all the way around. If I hadnt just spent a ton in Vegas, I wouldve picked up a corked Foret. Eclipse variants for $35. Not the best, not the worst. Ill come back for sure.

Lots of customers here on a Saturday night. Great selections of brews, tons of stuff not available in Orange County. Some Canadian stuff that I have never seen before. Lots of beers no longer available elsewhere were still on sale here, eg. the 50/50 Eclipse variants, various seasonals... etc. Visit their website for the detailed bottle list.
Price is a bit steep, especially for the Scandinavian imports. The price actually prevented me from buying some of the selections. But the selection is pretty amazing, one of the best in SD county.

I recently stopped by here on trip through San Diego. This was the last place I stopped after 3 other bottle shops, and I must say, I could've stopped here only and saved myself the day. This place's selection was unbelievable. He had everything I was looking for and then some. He had Eclipse variations, Bruery whales, and various other beers. They also carry a ton of rare one-off beers you won't find anywhere else. And the guy there, Paul really knew his stuff. I will definitely be stopping here every time I go to SD. Thanks Paul, you guys really know how to run a beer establishment.

I like that Clem's carries such a varied and high-end selection of beer rather than solely San Diego brews. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to talk beer. As I said, great selection and they will do their best to track down a specific bottle if you they don't already have it. They also have an email list you can join to get updates about new arrivals and discounts. My only complaint (and it's a minor one), is that I found their german beer selection a bit scarce. To be fair, I am usually in the mood for belgian or american beers, but every once in awhile I want a nice kolsch or helles. Like I said, minor complaint, especially when those german beers are commonly available elsewhere.

East Lancashire hospitals in drive to take on nurses
10:00pm Friday 14th February 2014 in East Lancashire By Lawrence Dunhill, Health Reporter
HOSPITAL bosses have launched another major recruitment drive to fill 100 nursing positions which remain vacant.
Since being placed in special measures in July last year, the Royal Blackburn and Burnley General hospitals have brought in more than 180 new nurses and healthcare assistants, but they still need more.
The recruitment campaign, labelled 'Care to Make a Difference', encourages applicants from 'across the globe' to apply for a Band 5 position, due to a shortage of UK nurses.
Chief nurse Christine Pearson said: "Applicants may be newly qualified nurses, nurses who are looking to move to a new role or nurses who may have been out of the workplace for some time and are now looking to return.
"As we may not be able to fill all of our nursing vacancies by recruiting in the UK, we are also encouraging nurses from across the globe to take up positions within East Lancashire.
"We are looking for nurses not only with the right qualifications to work at our trust, but they also need to share our values and be dedicated to providing high quality and safe care for patients."
Last summer NHS chief Sir Bruce Keogh published a report which made wide-ranging criticisms of the way East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust had been run, including major concerns about low staffing levels.
The trust has since increased its nursing workforce by 62, as well an additional 121 healthcare assistants.
But a spokesman for the trust added: "As a trust we are showing as having a circa 100 gap for nursing. This doesn't mean we have unsafe levels but takes into account vacancies, turnover, sickness and escalation."
There are 82 qualified nurses currently going through the recruitment process, but many of these positions will be cancelled out by current staff who are due to leave.
The trust employs more than 2,000 nurses in total.

Pendlesider says...
the 'nurse retention rate' for this trust was highlighted in the Keogh report and the reasons were revealed in a union survey 2 years ago which highlighted disgraceful neglect of patients due to overcrowding and high readmission rates.
In this article a 'spokesman' for the trust claims turnover and escalation aren't a reason for the emergency recruitment. It is quite clear however in the Keogh report both 'attendances + re-admission rates (turnover) and the inability to deal with patient numbers when beds are full (escalation) are the primary reason for the staff recruitment drive.
The current standing is that the patient to nurse ratio is deemed unsafe and hence the drive to recruit more nurses.
high quality and safe care for patients is imbibed within all Nursing practise so its an insult to carers to be asked of this from this trust, a clear sign of desperation.
the penultimate paragraph in this article highlights the desperation of this Hospital trust. The fact that the number of of nurses about to leave cannot be filled. In the meantime many patients will continue suffer for the ludicrous decision by this trust to place a single major hospital on a windy hill in Blackburn to cater for more that 600,000 patients in East Lancashire.

You can view picks for every single match at our WGC-Accenture Match Play section, but here are SB Nation Golf's quick predictions for the group to make it to the final four and win it all this weekend.
Jones Bracket
Adam: Dustin Johnson -- Johnson proved himself a worthy match play competitor in the last two Ryder Cups, performing his best in singles competition (2-0 for his career).
Emily: Charl Schwartzel -- Charl enters match play after a T3 at the Northern Trust Open, and he has reached at least the second round four times on a course that seems to suit his game.
Brendan: Charl Schwartzel -- While Rory sorts out his new Nike sticks in advance of Augusta, the steady Schwartzel maintains his recent form and emerges out of this bracket.
Hogan Bracket
Adam: Keegan Bradley -- We all remember his energy in team competition at the Ryder Cup. Bradley will bring the same to the WGC and be the surprise of the tournament.
Emily: Bill Haas -- He blew the final-round lead at Riviera, but he did finish T3 (for his third consecutive top-10) after a birdie-birdie close.
Brendan: Justin Rose -- The Englishman has breezed through match play events in recent years, and he's started the year with two solid showings in the Middle East.
Player Bracket
Adam: Tiger Woods -- I'm holding true to my prediction that 2013 will be Tiger's best ever. The madness continues this week and he easily wins his bracket.
Emily: Tiger Woods -- He may not have made it past the second round since he won in 2008, but the three-time match play champion is on a roll after winning his PGA Tour season-opening Farmers Insurance Open and teaming up with President Obama for a smack down of their playing partners on Sunday.
Brendan: Tiger Woods -- I want to mix it up and not take Tiger, but there's just no one, outside of defending champ Hunter Mahan, who I see challenging Woods early on.
Snead Bracket
Adam: Luke Donald -- Former WGC champion Donald should have his "weak" bracket won easily, however, I'm not one to take anything for granted. He still pulls it out in the end.
Emily: Ian Poulter -- The Ryder Cup MVP owns match play.
Brendan: Ian Poulter -- His match play track record is impossible to ignore, but I'm taking Poulter to narrowly win an all-English regional final with Luke Donald.
Overall Winner
Adam: Tiger Woods -- I honestly don't see any way he loses this week. Not the best match play competitor historically, but who is gonna tell him that?
Emily: Tiger Woods -- Sure, Tiger has that two-and-done hanging around his neck, but he's confident, rested and ready to send his opponents a message that he's tuned up for his fifth Masters win in April.
Brendan: Justin Rose -- Building off his work last fall both at the Ryder Cup and the silly season match play event in Turkey, the talented Rose comes away with his second WGC title in as many years.

MASSIVE chocolate and coffee notes, hints of charcoal. Heavy body, almost oily. Dark tan head, creamy. Damn well a beer you can dip a cigar in. Moderate bitterness for balance. Would go great over a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Heavy, complex, near-perfection. One of my favorite imperial stouts for sure.

Poured jet black,even when held to the light nothing came thru,a thinner tannish colored head atop that held pretty well.Deep char and coffee roast in the nose,a mix of dark fruit and a tinge of vanilla provided sweetness along with light sweet alcohol as it warmed.A tad thin but quite smooth in the feel,heavy roast flavors with dark fruit flavors,the roasted coffee flavors are the dominant flavor trait.A solid RIS,not as sweet as many,but not as complex as many either.

12oz bottle pulled from my cellar poured into a bulb style glass.
pours out opaque black with a one finger of super creamy mocha colored head with big bubbles in the middle. very nice retention. bits of sticky lace, but leaves some nice lace when you swirl the glass.
foremost in the aroma is a lot of heavily roasted/ burnt malts. also lots of dark dried fruits, a touch of smoke, dark chocolate and just a small hint of citris.
again lots of heavily roasted/ burnt malts that provide for a lot of bitterness in the finish. also dark dried fruits, bakers chocolate, dark chocolate, hints of coffee, subtle hints of smoke, and a bit of a citric acidic twang. not a stitch of alcohol noticable.
heavy bodied, carb is pretty good feeling for the style. a bit chalky. lots of lingering bitterness most likely from a combination of the roasted malt and hops. the overall feel of this beer is very similar to the mendocino oatmeal stout.
drinks about as good as any 10% RIS, one bottle is enough in a session. weighs a bit heavy on the stomach after awhile.

Jet black and a thick, cough syrup-cherry cola head on it 1.5" in depth, dense bubble structure, was so close to getting a perfect 5, it only needed a kickass lace job, instead, it was merely good. Aroma was roasty, a tad astringent. Was kinda expecting some dark fruit, chocolate or sweet aromas, but they weren't really there.
Taste, a substantial beer, the alcohol is there but isn't confrontational or oppressive, you can get through it pretty well. Really would think this could have a little more sugar or something sweet to help it along. I guess if you're looking for a 10% imperial stout for less than 10$ a 4pack, this is a good choice, and isn't going to have all kinds of confusing nuances for people. I mean, this is a way better deal than Darkness, it just doesn't have all the bells and whistles.

Appears pitch black large tan head fine even lacing. Aroma has some dark hoppy contents pine citrus dark chocolate moccha notes. Flavor is a bit harsh dark acrid black roasted malts. Harsh bitterness dark fruits hints of butterscotch that don't meld very well. Finish is rediculous with a harsh unbalanced bitterness, some hops come through pine/citrus/herbal that don't work well with the whole experience. Mouthfeel is cloying from front to back, I'm not really feelin this dark beer. Carbonation is unrelenting, on the high end fo the style becomes a bit cloying especially as this warms up a bit. Drinkability, after a second bottle I had on hand I revisited not as horrible as my first gut reaction was, a decent impy stout that just wasn't meshing for me on mouthfeel and flavor the clashing of the sweet sided traditional dark fruits more of a west coast hop profile coming through for me.

A - Pours brown tinged black; opaque with a thin tan head (despite a rather vigorous pour) that has moderate retention but leaves little lacing.
S - Dark roasted malts, of course; hints of coffee and chocolate, not unexpected; but a surprise: dark fruits, mainly figs, are quite pronounced. High ABV rather hidden, at least before warming.
T (3.8) - Strong dark roasted malt flavor, with some burnt tinge and a touch of smokiness; spicy hops are also obvious here; more than expected. Hints of dark fruits (although less obvious than in the nose), dark chocolate and coffee, with the coffee coming clearly in the finish and aftertaste. A trace of dryness and hops in the finish. High ABV is well hidden.
M - Full bodied; with suitable carbonation.
O - Almost too rich, but a good sipper with well-hidden alcohol.
(light revision with new bottle in July 2013).

Poured from about an inch above the glass gives this stout a big light brown head that settles into a pretty nice lacing above a clear dark brown to black colored imperial.
Aroma consists of that dark black licorice, that I used to love as a kid, blended very well with dark hardy fruits such as prunes and/or apricots with some dark roasted malts sneaking there way in there.
Dark roasted malts, light alcohol, dark fruits, Hershey's special dark chocolate combine to make a pretty good imperial stout taste.
A full bodied beer with a dry aftertaste with some of the lingering rich dark malts staying around to entice you to take another drink.

4.03/5 rDev +3.6%
Appearance - Pours a black with subtle brown hue. The mocha colored head thickens to a finger or two, and hangs around for a bit. The lacing is impressively thick and sticky.
Smell - Classic Imperial stout smells here. Alcohol and chocolate, overpowering a faint coffee aroma. Sweet caramel cuts through. Nice smelling beer.
Taste - Aggressive flavor, as is common with an imperial. A lot of chocolate and coffee dark roasted malt, brought in balance by sweet caramel notes.
Moutfeel - Thick, almost syrup-like body, with a good amount of carbonation. The mouthfeel is certainly on point for an imperial.
Overall - This is a solid Imperial Stout. Thick and aggressive. Mendocino should be proud.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass.
A- Midnight dark with a dark tan head about 2 fingers in height. Head lingers for half the glass.
S- Definitely a stout. Coffee with a charred malty smell. Hints of chocolate.
T- Wow. This is an amazing stout. Burnt with a smoothness that is matchless from all the stouts I have had. Hints of chocolate but with a strong coffee flavor. Outstanding.
M- Carbonation is as to be expected. Smooth and finished crisp.
O- By far the best stout that I have ever had. It has a strong burnt flavor at the beginning but finishes smooth and the burntness is not accompanied by an excessive bitterness. If you have a chance to experience this stout and do not, you have done yourself a severe disservice.

Poured from 12oz bottle into snifter.
Aroma: Dark espresso, red grape juice, and powdered cocoa. Very fruity with a slight mineral note.
Appearance: Pitch black. Pours like motor oil. Thick 1 finger tan head collapses to creamy layer.
Flavor: Mineral, slight metallic note, red grape juice, and a hint of phenolic band-aid. Espresso bitterness quickly appears, and lingers long through the finish.
Mouthfeel: Med-full mouthfeel and medium-low carbonation.
Overall: Definitely not my favorite Imperial stout... Mouthfeel was there, but the aroma was intriguing at best. Meanwhile, the flavor was a bit harsh, and the brew had some flaws. I'd give it another chance down the road, but for now, this is not something that I'm going to seek out.

Pours an impenetrable black with a thick and frothy tan head. Aromas of coffee, chocolate, molasses, burnt bread, dark fruits, alcohol and floral hops. The flavors are similar with arabica coffee and dark chocolate upfront, along with dark fruits and burnt bread, molasses, floral hops and some alcohol. The mouthfeel is smooth and rich and drinkability is excellent for the style. Very good attempt at the style, complex and drinkable.

Poured deep dark black with a nice dark brown head, mild lacing and light retention.
The smell is very fruity with hints of chocolate and alcohol.
The flavor is big, very roasty and smokey with subtle hints of toffee and chocolate. The finish has a nice bit of hop bitterness to round this out nicely.
The mouthfeel is thick and oily and leaves a nice warm coating.
Drinkable and good, very balanced big stout. Nicely done by one of the more underrated craft breweries.

3.58/5 rDev -8%
Appearance: Very dark brown with a modest-sized medium beige head that faded fairly quickly.
Smell: Predominately coffee/roast malt notes. maybe a touch of brown sugar notes.
Taste: Primarily roasted malt notes for the most part, with maybe a hint of brown sugar from the nose. The beer finishes dry with some slight astringency. The alcohol presence is subtle for the ABV.
Mouth-feel: Medium bodied with a moderate level of carbonation for the style.
Overall: Not bad, especially considering the price but not a mind blower.

T: Charcoal pit, some dark chocolate, strong coffee, and roasted nuts.
M: The body is medium-thick with below average carbonation.
D: It is like an Imperial Stout mixed with a Rauchbier.

12 oz. Dark brown/black pour, ample light tan head.
Malty aroma, light roast, good caramel with some chocolates.
Very malty, roast, caramel, molasses, dark chocolate. Finishes with some cocoa and roast coffee, very pleasant.
Nearly full bodied and near creamy. Alcohol well hidden. A great winter warmer and head and heals above the others I've had from them.
Reminded me a bit of Plead the 5th from Dark Horse. Far and away the best I've had from Mendocino.

text: Green Roofs Grow a Whopping 115% in 2011, Industry AnnouncesWashington, D.C., ranks as No. 1 market.By Nigel F. Maynard Photos: Brent Bingham dba Foto Fx Green roofs may only represent a very small part of the total U.S. residential market, but the industry still saw triple-digit growth last year."The green roof industry grew by 115 percent over the course of 2011, up significantly from 28.5 percent growth recorded in 2010," says Steven W. Peck, president of Green Roofs for Healthy Cities (GRHC), an association that promotes the development of green roofs and walls in North America.The association has a theory for the strong growth over the last year. "We are definitely beginning to see results from policy support that has increased over the past few years," says Jeffrey L. Bruce, chair of GRHC. "The industry is also benefiting from the more than 500 accredited green roof professionals (GRPs) in the market, who are committed to driving future industry growth."At the same time the group released it numbers, it announced that Washington, D.C., for the first time jumped to top of the metro rankings with more than 800,000 square feet of green roofs installed in 2011. Washington, D.C., Mayor Vincent C. Gray says it shows that the city's aggressive adoption of green infrastructure continues to pay off."This is evidence that the District is moving toward my vision for a sustainable D.C. and will lead the nation in implementing green practices and growing a green economy," the D.C. mayor says. "We are fully committed to being No. 1 again next year."Chicago is still the green roof leader among metro areas over the past decade, the association adds. "With a total of over five million square feet of installed green roofs, it is one million square feet ahead of any other metro region since the survey started in 2004," the GRHC says.A green roof is one that consists of several layers of protected membranes and soil medium, and planted with any type of vegetation, including succulents, grasses, and other plants. Green roof advocates say the system offers a tremendous amount of benefits, including increased insulation for the building, added energy efficiency, and stormwater management.In urban applications, green roofs help clean the air, reduce the stress off sewer systems through stormwater retention, and help reduce the heat island effect that makes urban temperatures climb in the summer.Paul Erlichman, membership coordinator for the association, says the institutional sector of the market saw the biggest green roof gains, but he says commercial, multi-unit residential, industrial, and single-family residential also saw strong growth. "This is based on total square footage, and institutional projects tend to be largest," he adds.Green roofs are ideal on commercial, institutional, and civic buildings that are flat, but they can also be installed on low-sloped houses. Erlichman estimates that residential installations make up about 20 percent of the green roof market and offers a theory how the technology can grow in the single-family market."As awareness grows on the multiple benefits of green roofs and the success of the industry, more homeowners will recognize green roofs as investments that will pay financial and environmental dividends," he says. "At a larger scale, an increasing amount of policies such as Toronto's Green Roof Bylaw will require that developers use green infrastructure principles in their projects. Certainly, the further development of these policies will make our cities greener and drive the residential green roof market."Nigel F.

Some of us have our own Thanksgiving traditions and for many in the Tri-State, it's participating in the Annual Old National Turkey Day 5K.
The 23rd annual race was in Downtown Evansville Thanksgiving morning.
The 23rd Annual Turkey Fay 5K had nearly 2,000 participants.
"This race has grown every year and we think it's because people are asking their friends and family because they have some an enjoyable experience, they're asking their friends and their family to walk and run with them," said Judi Early with Evansville Goodwill.
That's definitely the case for the Smith family.
Siblings Michael, Jennifer and Jessica say it wouldn't be Thanksgiving without the annual race.
"we've always done this together," said Michael Smith. "Its kind of our little family tradition. And if we run this morning we'll get to eat more later."
They decided to switch it up this year by making costumes to wear during the run.
Michael dressed as a turkey, Jennifer an Indian and Jessica a pilgrim.
"We talked about it about a month ago that we wanted to do something crazy because we've done this for several years," Jennifer said. "Monday night we just sat down and made everything."
Emily Mieure: "What's your favorite part about this race?"
Jessica Smith: "Pretty much the dressing up and so I can eat donuts later and not feel guilty about it."
All the money raised goes straight to the Goodwill Family Center.
"It's a transitional family housing facility for homeless families here in Evansville," said Judi Early.
"To help out a place that's so close to home makes us feel great," said Jessica Smith.
They hope to have even more participants for the 2013 Turkey Day 5K.
Race results can be found online at http://www.evvgoodwill.org/.

Never underestimate the bond of firefighters. On September 25, Portland firefighters got together to workout, but this workout goes beyond your basic pushup or sprint. It's called the Iron Bill Inspire workout. Thousands of firefighters across the country uniting to show their support for those injured and killed on May 31st in a fire in Houston, Texas.
Captain William Dowling, or Iron Bill as they call him, survived but had to have both legs amputated. As he fights to recover the Iron Bill Inspire Facebook page was born.

This page now has over 3,000 likes and is cluttered with pictures of firefighters showing their support through a good old fashioned sweaty workout.
So why a workout? Just think about how important it is for a firefighter to be in shape. The heavy gear, the hot conditions, and the adrenaline rush. Portland Firefighter Ryan Thomson tells us that he is excited that this motivated them to come together and workout together and a team.
"If something happens it doesn't matter where you are in the firefighter community we should stick together and keep our thoughts and prayers going for when tragedies like this happen."

[1]The Amateur Astronomers Association, in conjunction with the Urban Park Rangers, presents its annual Urban Starfest each year in the Sheep Meadow of Central Park on a Saturday evening in the fall. There is a rain/cloud date the following evening.
The Urban Starfest is free and open to everyone. It demonstrates the ability and perseverance of amateur astronomers and the general public to view the wonders of the night sky, even though we will be only a mile from Times Square! The Sheep Meadow is an open area, free of glare from local lighting, where almost the entire sky can be seen. Many club members and other amateur astronomers bring telescopes—some fairly large—so that they and the public can share the heavenly views.
Amateur Astronomers Association of New York
Sponsors November 9 Urban Starfest in Central Park
The Event: On Saturday evening, November 9, the Amateur Astronomers Association of New York (AAA), in conjunction with the NYC Urban Park Rangers, will take Manhattan on a tour of our solar system and universe during its annual Urban Starfest in Central Park's Sheep Meadow.
Guests of honor for Starfest 2013 include: Sara Scoles, Associate Editor, Astonomy Magazine, Al Nagler, Founder TeleVue Optics, Michael Peoples, Adorama and Mike Dzurny, Meade Instruments Corporation.
The Sheep Meadow is an open area of the park, free of glare from local lighting, where the majority of the urban night sky can be seen. There will be telescopes of various magnifications and design, capable of reaching out into the Milky Way Galaxy and beyond. Come have a look at the universe just a mile from Times Square and easily reachable by public transportation.
The event will begin at dusk, when trained AAA observers will be setting up their scopes and determining their celestial targets. Guests are welcome to come early, watch this process, and speak with AAA members and supporters about telescopes, astronomical binoculars and solar observing equipment.
The People: Just as important as what you will see is who will join you on your journey to the stars. AAA publicly promotes science education and culture throughout the five boroughs. Its goal is to teach, educate, and foster a culture of stargazing and public science engagement. Member observers will take you on your first steps to understanding our cosmos. Those with more advanced knowledge will be able to discuss astronomy with their peers. For kids, astronomy is the gateway to the sciences. Seeing Saturn's rings or Jupiter's moons is a source of wonder and amazement that can dramatically change one's perspective.
The AAA Urban Starfest strives to plant new seeds of curiosity (much like NASA has planted its Curiosity rover on Mars) — not just about astronomy, but about science, technology, engineering, and math. The supportive environment of this Central Park event is the perfect venue to meet helpful and friendly people dedicated to sharing what they've learned. Although observing the night sky is the focus of the evening, Starfest is about making new friends and talking to people about new and amazing things.
Each year, this event brings hundreds of New Yorkers together to share the experience of viewing the skies above Manhattan. Intrepid AAA observer teams staff 15 to 20 telescopes and astronomical binoculars of various magnifications.
The Technology: Tele Vue Optics telescopes and eyepieces, Celestron NexStars, Orion StarBlasts, SkyProdigys, and more, telescopic guidance systems have progressed tremendously. Learn and observe AAA members as they program their scopes to point to the cosmos. Sky Safari, Starwalk, Google Sky Map, Space Map — there are many excellent apps for phones and iPads alike. Watch as AAA members research targets and scout the sky with the latest software. CCD cameras, DSLRs set to infinity, there are many ways to capture images by letting in starlight. Bring your own equipment and discuss imaging techniques with member photographers.
Our Targets: Our astronomical targets will be both near and far. In our solar system, the cloud bands of Jupiter, its moons, and our Moon will be easily visible. Beyond, we will observe distant galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae. The sky is filled with opportunities each night.
Directions: Enter at Central Park West at 67th Street, walking past the parking lot for the old Tavern on the Green towards the Sheep Meadow, a wide-open space. Look for a table staffed by Park Rangers and AAA members at the entrance to the meadow.
About AAA: Founded in 1927, The Amateur Astronomers Association of New York is dedicated to educating residents of the metropolitan area in the science of astronomy. In addition to observing sessions in four boroughs and upstate, AAA sponsors a monthly lecture series, offers astronomy classes and seminars throughout the year, publishes a monthly membership news journal, Eyepiece, and provides a wealth of information on its website for current events and astronomical content.
Rain Date: In case of a clouded over sky or rain, Urban Starfest will be held the following evening, Sunday, November 10.
Keith Rowan wrote an excellent history of Starfest on his website at the College of Staten Island [2], and we have a copy in our Articles [3] section.
NOTE: Parking spaces are all claimed. If you bring a telescope you can enter the park at W 67th street, unload your car and then find street parking.
Directions: Enter at Central Park West and 67th Street, walking past the parking lot for Tavern on the Green into the Sheep Meadow, a wide-open space where you should easily spot us. Park rangers will be there to assist.

Mercy Air Care, or MAC, has gone on nearly 9,000 flights, and next month, it'll head up for a special event.
Wednesday, the Mercy Medical staff, along with some of the flight crew, announced a 25th year celebration that will take May 5th.
Mercy's EC 135 helicopter will land near the Marina Inn in South Sioux City, with four guests on board, including United Flight 232 pilot, Captain Al Haynes, and Doctor David Greco, a member of the flight crew that responded to the crash.
That incident is just one of many big events that MAC has responded to.
"From the Terra explosion to the crash of Flight 232 to the very recent, devastating tornadoes at the boy scout camp, we have always seen Mercy Air Care respond and been a vital part of all of those incidents," said Mari Kaptain-Dahlen, Executive Vice President/COO.
One doctor says that each flight wouldn't have been possible without all the knowledgeable staff.
"The work of the excellent staff of Mercy Air Care, the pilots, flight nurses, and the flight medics have a direct and very important impact on the patients' lives and health in the last 25 years," said Dr. Joseph Liewer, Emergency Department Medical Director.
Again, the 25th Anniversary event will take place at six at the Marina Inn on May 5th.
The public is invited to attend.

Mark Valeski, second in both the G2-Louisiana Derby and G2-Risen Star at the Fair Grounds earlier this spring, will skip Saturday's running of the 2012 Kentucky Derby, according to his trainer Larry Jones.
The three-year-old son of Proud Citizen is not suffering from any injuries, instead Larry Jones didn't feel that the colt ultimately belonged in the race.
The defection of Mark Valeski allows Optimizer to slide into the Derby field. Optimizer, trained by Hall of Famer D. Wayne Lukas, finished second in the G2-Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park before running a very disappointing ninth in the G1-Arkansas Derby. Prior to today, Optimizer sat at #21 on the graded earnings list; the Derby starters are limited to the top 20 horses based on earnings in graded stakes races. With Mark Valeski now out of the race, Optimizer will get a shot at the Run for the Roses.
Other Kentucky Derby news on Tuesday, May 1st:
- Rousing Sermon worked five furlongs in 1:00.40 under the Twin Spires on Tuesday morning, and galloped out in 1:14. The work was second fastest of the 17 to work the distance this morning, but one of only six horses to work five furlongs while the track was listed as "FAST". Rain in Louisville created a wet track later in the morning.
- Four Derby contenders worked over the Churchill Downs main track on Monday:
Liaison worked five furlongs in 1:00.80, seventh fastest of 28 at the distance.
Creative Cause worked four furlongs in 47.80, third fastest of 57.
Sabercat worked four furlongs in 48.40 (10/57).
Daddy Nose Best worked four furlongs in 49.40 (29/57).
- Entries and post positions for Friday's 2012 Kentucky Oaks will be finalized this afternoon.

From 2003 to 2005, Sean Payton worked as a quarterback coach and assistant head coach in Dallas. He departed to coach the New Orleans Saints in 2006—Bill Parcells' final year in Dallas. Had the Big Tuna left Big D a year earlier and Payton stayed to coach Dallas, it very well could have been the Cowboys, not the Saints, who got their hands on the Lombardi Trophy.
The 'Boys brought in Wade Phillips to coach the team in 2007, and with him came another highly coveted young NFL mind in Jason Garrett. Garrett was immediately named the offensive coordinator, calling plays for Dallas until this season.
Both Payton and Garrett have had the good fortune of working with talented quarterbacks in Drew Brees and Tony Romo. Most would argue that Brees is a far more talented passer, but don't forget that he had just one full season with a passer rating over 90.0 while in San Diego—a number he's never failed to eclipse while with Payton.
And it's not like the Cowboys have been without talent on the offensive side of the ball during Garrett's tenure in Dallas, making statistical comparisons between Garrett and Payton at least worth examining.
Payton vs. Garrett: Final Ranks
Below, I charted the final ranks for Payton and Garrett during their time calling plays: 2006 to 2011 for Payton (since he was suspended last season) and 2007 to 2012 for Garrett.
Here's how the two have stacked up in total yards.
A lower rank is obviously better here. You can see that Payton's Saints have incredibly ranked first in the NFL in yards four of the six full seasons he's called plays. His average rank, out of 32 teams, has been 2.3. That's remarkable.
Meanwhile, Garrett's offenses have been above-average in terms of total yards, ranking as high as second in 2009. His average rank from 2007 to 2012 was 9.2.
Garrett's offense has been notoriously poor at getting the ball into the end zone, though—a problem that isn't just a sample size fluke since we have six years of data on him. Check out how Garrett stacks up with Payton in terms of scoring.
Payton's offenses have ranked first in the NFL in scoring twice and in the top two in three out of his six seasons calling plays. His average scoring rank has been 5.3. Meanwhile, Garret has ranked in the top six in scoring just once, and his average rank has been 11.8.
Playing Aggressively
One of the reasons Payton has found more success than Garrett is that he embraces analytics to a stronger degree, which has led to more aggressive decision-making. That's reflected in the coaches' first down play-calling.
Looking at first down play-calling in the first half of games (when they're still about point-maximization instead of running out the clock), both Garrett and Payton have been more aggressive than the average team.
That's important because statisticians are unanimous in their view that NFL teams run the ball way, way too much on first down. While Garrett has shown a near-balance in early first down play-calling, Payton has passed the ball nearly 59 percent of the time.
We can also look at fourth down decisions to measure aggressiveness.
I removed fourth quarter plays because that skews the results to favor weak teams that are trailing in the fourth quarter. Through three quarters, Garrett has attempted fewer fourth down plays than the average NFL team, while Payton is far ahead.
We obviously can't know for sure how the Cowboys' fate would have been altered had Payton stayed in Dallas, but his embracement of analytics and the dominance of his offense in New Orleans suggests perhaps more than a single playoff win might have been in store.

PHOENIX (AP) - A former assistant Tempe High School band instructor accused of having a sexual relationship with a female student has been sentenced to 10 years of probation.
A Maricopa County Superior Court spokesman says 23-year-old Andrew Islas was sentenced Monday.
Islas pleaded guilty to two counts of child abuse last month.
Tempe police arrested Islas in February 2012 on suspicion of six counts of sexual conduct with a minor.
Police say Islas allegedly had an ongoing sexual relationship with a then 16-year-old girl at Tempe High from August through November of 2011.
Authorities say the sexual contact allegedly occurred multiple times at various locations including Islas' home in Chandler.
Judge Rosa Mroz sentenced Andrew Islas Jr to 10 years of supervised probation.

TROUP, TX (KLTV) - From the time Royce Peacock landed on Normandy Beach the week after D-Day, he was battling the enemy. In a company of 214 men, 45 were killed in action. During his three months of constant battle, Peacock was to earn the Bronze Star for leading his platoon into action after fierce gunfire had immobilized them, a Presidential Citation for taking and holding Freedenburg Farms against an overwhelming enemy, and the Purple Heart for a battle wound which he says may have saved his life, or at least his feet, which had been frozen and then treated at the same time as his wounds.
Peacock was released from the Army in 1946 and then called back to duty in 1950 during the Korean War. Ironically, during that war, he was stationed in Germany where he had seen so much action during World War II.

Vereen and Bob Fosse, the show's original director-choreographer, crafted the character of the Leading Player during their rehearsals. According to Vereen, his agent at the time called the role a "nothing part" and advised him not to take it.
"There was no role of the Leading Player when I started the show," admits Vereen. "But Bob had the character in his mind. He told me 'I want you to go to the library, look at the old dancers and their style,' and as we began to rehearse, the role evolved during the process. Bob created the Leading Player on me."
In the musical, the Leading Player introduces the audience to a troupe of players who set out to perform a coming-of-age play about the life and times of a young prince named Pippin (Matthew James Thomas). The venerable show opener "Magic to Do" professes that the company has "miracle plays to play." The miracle here is perhaps the stamina required to play the part of the show's emcee. The Leading Player is ever-present on stage in the show.
"It's been a team effort," says Miller. "I'm a perfectionist. I told everyone at the very beginning, I want you to teach me and really show me. I can move, I can dance, but I really set out to get the Fosse choreography."
The most challenging aspect of learning the role? Miller fesses up to the subtleness of Fosse's legendary choreography. "The style is very contained," she says. "As performers, you want to be big. Hit every moment hard. With Fosse it's about making it look like a walk in the park. When there is a jolt of a move, it's on purpose."
She says, "Having Chet Walker in the rehearsal room was a real gift. He was able to explain all of the stories behind the movement." Walker, a Fosse protégé and one of the creators of Broadway revue Fosse, was part of the original 1972 production.
While Miller admits to not having any contact with the show's original Leading Player as of this writing, the seasoned Vereen says he wholeheartedly gives her his support and is thrilled to see the show back on the boards after more than 40 years.
"I pass the role onto you, baby," Vereen says. "Do it baby, do it."

checking voltage
Has anyone else ever used a voltmeter/multimeter to check battery out put with the tractor running? Maybe im doing something wrong but i set my voltmeter on 20v direct current and im getting the strangest reading, it bounces any where from a few tenths of a volt to 20 some and its constantly changing. With the tractor off i get a nomal reading of about 6.3 or so. Ive tried it on my vehicle with it running and it reads just fine. Has anyone else encountered this?
Re: checking voltage
Pretty common occurrence with a digital multimeter. Try taking the readings with one of the older style, analog with the needle, meters.
I have several digital multimeters and get some fluxuation in the reading, but not to the extent previously described.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: checking voltage
Does the battery stay charged? More important than readings.

Re: checking voltage
Well thats where im encountering the problem, I think I have a bad regulator I have a big draw on the system with the switch off, and im thinking the contacts are sticking, so I swaped the regulator from my other tractor it seems to be working and the amp gauge seems to show its charging i was just curious what the out put was thats why i hooked the voltmeter to it.
Re: checking voltage
Checking it at the battery is the better choice. The battery can absorb spikes and dips in voltage output. It may give more consistent readings with digital meters. An analog meter is the better choice.
One of these with your own leads and clips added would be good.

Shelbyville Daily Union
---- — Two candidates for Shelby County Sheriff currently have their hats in the ring and will face off in the March election. Incumbent Sheriff Michael Miller has been challenged by Deputy Don Koonce.
In an effort to give voters information to make their decision, the Daily Union has offered the candidates a chance to address a few issues facing the department. The following responses are as provided from the candidates.
DU: What are your qualification for the Sheriff's position?
Koonce: 36 plus years in law enforcement, 21 years at Shelby County Sheriff's Department; US Army Veteran, Military Police; former officer of the East Central Illinois Drug Task Force; Clandestine Meth Lab certified; Currently working part-time as Police Officer in Shelby County
Miller: Having served nearly 8 years as sheriff of Shelby County my qualifications include experience in the position and a professional common sense approach to law enforcement. As sheriff I have maintained an efficient office, working within my budget, increasing patrols, obtaining grants for equipment and implementing new technology which has saved our county tax payers money. I have maintained or implemented programs such as DARE, TRIAD, Crime Stoppers and Offenderwatch. These programs provide proven crime prevention information and practices to help keep Shelby County safe.
DU: What improvements would you make to the department?
Koonce: Schedule meetings for the county communities, residents and organizations for input into how the Sheriff's Office can best serve them.
Revitalize Neighborhood Watch programs county-wide.
Increase visibility of patrol deputies for more efficient law enforcement.
Make better use of scheduling of manpower to provide at least two Officers for each patrol shift and to obtain that goal, if needed, patrolling by the Sheriff and Sheriff's Chief Deputy.
Vigorously provide county citizens information on various scams and other illegal activities that target all citizens.
Schedule monthly joint meeting at different locations throughout the county for Police, Fire and EMS departments which include the cities and villages that make up the twenty-one townships of Shelby County.
I would start a Citizen's Police Academy for training not only for law enforcement officers but also county citizens so they can better recognize possible crimes in progress and to familiarize themselves with processing of crime scenes.
Work diligently for protection of our senior citizens from acts of violence, neglect and fraud.
Work for improved and better relations with the County Board in regard to the Sheriff's Office Budget.
Implement within the Sheriff's Office an open-door policy that will give all citizens access to the office.
Improve an active Reservist/Auxiliary Deputy program.
When elected, I will ensure that the Sheriff's Office will work extremely hard to make improvements for the people of the County to get their input on what improvements they would like to see in the Sheriff's Department
Miller: The most needed improvement in the Shelby County Sheriff's Office is the need for Enhanced 911. Shelby County is one of the last counties in the State of Illinois that does not have this essential service. Enhanced 911 will allow for improved response times for all emergency services. The Sheriff's Office provides emergency dispatching and call taking services for all law enforcement, rescue squad, dive team, first responders and many of the fire departments in Shelby County. As sheriff I have already assisted other emergency service leaders in the effort to provide emergency addressing which is the first step in the process to providing enhanced 911. The new addresses for county residents will help first responders save valuable time locating residences in the event of an emergency. The next step is to implement and maintain an enhanced 911 phone system and enhanced call taking software which will help locate and identify callers even if they are unable to speak.
DU: What do you see is the biggest need of law enforcement in Shelby County?
Koonce: The support of the people, and I am going to make sure that this is a department that the people can support.
Treat people fairly and with respect.
Miller: The biggest need of law enforcement in Shelby County is strong leadership and a long term commitment to service. Strong leadership comes from integrity, honesty and trust. There are many aspects to Strong leadership. The first is having good working relationships between all agencies. I consider the good working relationships I have built with Federal, State and local agencies as one of my greatest accomplishments during my two terms as sheriff. A long term commitment of service to the people of Shelby County is maintaining an "Open Door Policy". All citizens should have access to their sheriff, as an elected official I make myself available to them in my office or in public.
DU: The candidates closed by speaking to the voters:
Koonce: To the voters, every four years the Sheriff's position becomes available and the people have a right to choose. The choice is your on March 18, 2014.
Miller: I am proud to serve Shelby County as your sheriff and would greatly appreciate your continued support.

Laura Dodd, 32, has been singing since she was a child. The Gadsden native has also struggled with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) for the last 20 years. She said battling the sometimes crippling disease has provided much inspiration for her music.
"My life hasn't always been easy, but whose life is easy," Dodd said. "There have been times where I suffered through a lot of pain. I've had to use a walker or cane to be able to get around. We all have trials and tribulations, but I think what matters is how you come out on the other side."
Dodd said she continues to struggle with CIDP, but for the last seven years, she's been able to walk on her own.
"My doctor tells people I'm a walking miracle," she said.
Along with battling CIDP, Dodd also survived an abusive relationship with her first husband.
"My heart is in domestic violence awareness," Dodd said. "I try to do whatever I can to help others who may be in a situation like I was in."
After overcoming those struggles, Dodd said she is "all about positive energy."
"That is what led me to inspirational country music," she said. "I want to show that you can overcome. I want to be a role model."
Dodd received the female vocalist of the year award on Oct. 18 at an awards ceremony at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville.
"When they announced my name, I felt this overwhelming surge of excitement," she said.
Dodd was also nominated for entertainer of the year and inspirational country song of the year for her song "I Am Pretty."
Throughout her career, Dodd has shared the stage with the likes of George Jones, Travis Tritt, Rascal Flatts and Josh Turner. Her most recent album, "Songbird," has been very successful and received much praise from critics.
This year's award marks the second time Dodd has been recognized at the ICM Awards. She was named best new artist in 2010.
Dodd has only lived in the area for a couple of months after marrying Jasper's Joe Downs IV in late August.
"I have loved being in Jasper," she said. "This is such a great community. The people are so friendly, and I've been welcomed here with open arms."
Dodd described her relationship with Downs as "colorful and beautiful."
"I'm looking forward to our future together, and looking forward to becoming more involved in the community here in Jasper and Walker County," she said.
