I'd love to read a headline a headline like this: American citizen struggles to change with country. Man goes through motions on auto-pilot.
Isn't that about right? I think it is. And I'm not just talking about the recent election. I'm talking about the many changes in our world in recent years.
For instance, five years ago I had to wrap my head around the fact that my 19 and 16 year old kids used texting to communicate more often than talking on the phone. I distinctly recall wanting to press the brakes on that technological evolution and its results.
It seemed so wrong, ya know? Young people opting for abbreviated words and abbreviated sentences instead of practicing converstation.
My kids would be fine, I knew. Whether in the mood or not, I've always engaged them and they've always responded. We've been talking since they were teething droolers. But what about their peers, likely living in unparalleled circumbstances? The outlook for their generation appeared grim.
So yes, cell phones were good and bad in my life when it took off with popularity.
My grandmother probably felt this way about the computer replacing the typewriter or the microwave accompanying the oven (for different reasons, of course). We've been flooded with so many changes in our country.
When immigrants were fleeing their land to improve their quality of life, looking towards a hopeful future in the new world, and when African kings sold their countrymen into slavery to Europeans, nobody considered fully how it would all shake out (in a few hundred years). What a beautiful mess we've become.
If socialists didn't have such a chokehold on all things media, including the editorial and book industry, there might have been a section in self-help available to American citizesns on how to live in this new newworld. We might have some guidance on how to swallow our grinding to raw irritation in the face of the Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas during these coming weeks.
We might learn how to adjust to being outnumbered by the unemployed. How to accept organized campaigns which attack businesses and capitalism. How to accept propagandized hatred of wealthier citizens. How to accept ceaseless instigation of racial division.
How to accept being forced to share our earnings with people who refuse to work. How to accept consecutive life sentences to infinity of amends-making for slavery and racism.
Whereas once upon a time, all across our old worlds, we freely referenced God and declared our thanks for His love and His mercy, to such extents, we even fled old homesteads to freely worship elsewhere. Today God references are considered outdated, offensive and even ridiculous. (What a crazy, upside down world we're living in!)
How to stick to your morals in the face of overwhelming odds, would have been nice.
Oh there's so much more! But I'm sure you get my drift.
Maybe some of us are old and tired and cranky and who cares as long as they stay off my property unless they wanna get shot. I'm not that old, but sometimes I feel just that way. But then a thought nudges and I say to myself: Hey young lady. Somebody out there might need to know they're not alone with their thoughts on these very matters.
And many of us have children attached to us. Who need us to keep pressing truthfully on their behalf. And some of us just plain love this country and what is used to represent. So there ya go!
You're welcome.
Merry Christmas and God speed.

"Resting" Volchenkov not participating in Devils' practice today
Defenseman Anton Volchenkov is the only Devils' player who played in Monday's win over Washington who is not participating in the team's practice this morning at Prudential Center.
The Devils say Volchenkov is "resting,"
Volchenkov did not have a shift in the final 5:26 Monday. He was credited with three blocked shots, which tied Colin White for the team high. He was not credited with a block on his last shift of the game, but was seen hobbling to the bench after being hit in the foot. He blocked a Mike Green shot 4:44 into the third period, but played multiple shifts after that.
Otherwise, the combinations are the same as Monday's game. Olivier Magnan, who was a healthy scratceh Monday, is paired with Matt Corrente. Volchenkov played with Corrente Monday. The other two defense pairs are the same.
Forwards: Ilya Kovalchuk-Dainius Zubrus-Alexander Vasyunov; Patrik Elias-Jason Arnott-Mattias Tedenby; Brian Rolston-Travis Zajac-David Clarkson; Rod Pelley-Adam Mair-Stephen Gionta.
Defensemen: Colin White-Henrik Tallinder; Andy Greene-Mark Fayne; Olivier Magnan-Matt Corrente; Anssi Salmela.
Goaltenders: Johan Hedberg, Mike McKenna.

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) - The Missoula City-County Health Department is asking residents not to throw away toxic chemicals after bleach and liquid fertilizer mixed while being compacted in a garbage truck, sending two trash collectors to the hospital.
Environmental specialist Travis Ross tells the Missoulian (http://bit.ly/17fIqem ) that two Republic Services of Montana workers complained of headaches and nausea last Thursday and were treated and released from the hospital.
No one was harmed Wednesday when muriatic acid reacted to cause strong fumes in a trash bin.
Republic Services municipal manager Max Bauer says workers are told to leave hazardous materials with notes telling people where to get more information about disposal options. However, on Thursday, the chemicals were in black bags.
Ross and Bauer note Missoula plans a citywide hazardous waste collection in September.

The more I learn, the less I know.
Here's just one of my tractors, started as an IH cub cadet 122.... (hope I did the pic upload right )
Well, I have a few pictures, tractors are all covered this time of year.
First is my little 1985 Kubota L-2550 that began life as an American Airlines tug,
then there is a 1953 Allis Chalmers WD, just one pic that I could find...
I have a 1936 Caterpillar RD4, with LeTourneau blade and cable drive.
I also have a 1944 Caterpillar D4, tool bar hydraulic blade, but no pics with blade attached
also have a couple of John Deere riding mowers; an early 80's model 300, and an early 2000's model 335, with ps, all hydraulics, etc.,
but no pics that I could find...
I love those old crawlers, I almost bought a caterpillar D2, I'm glad I didn't now though. It needed a lot of work. I would like to have a JD 1010 crawler loader.
U.S. Coast Guard
I only buy machines DOA and rebuid them!
Several others in process but takes several years to rebuild and repair and finally Paint!
Awesome, Ive always wanted to do a skid steer. Im working on a case davis super trencher right now.
U.S. Coast Guard
I can only show a stolen picture of one I had a while back. 1958 40 series wide front end. Wish i still had it.

Awesome machines

Guess it's time for me to bring down the quality of this thread. I have two tractors, one a Allis Chalmers WD45 (running, but don't have pics) and a John Deere Model "B" that's going to get worked on once the weather gets nice enough to allow it.
The space I am storing it in is very cramped so I couldn't get very good pics, sorry.

Sorry if this is a distraction but here goes...
Where I live used to be all farm land in the 60's but it's all built up now with the exception of a few active farms and quite a few horse ranches. Anyhow, across the road from me is a retirement home and as the elderly farmers find their way to the retirement home, they often have estate sales on the front grounds of the place. Every day, I drive by these beautiful old tractors -the plain and simple kind. Most have rear wheels that are between 4 to 6 feet tall. All of them are older machines, I'm guessing between 50 to 70 years old and most of them are in excellent looking condition.
I have no place to put one -much less a need to own one but man, I sure want one. I'll take pics if you want. I drive by every day. Some of the machines are just a few grand asking price...
I didn't include a picture of my little Bobcat skid steer in my tractor pictures so here it is.

Thats a nice little machine. Ive always wanted one of those tiny skid loaders like then use for cleaning cattle stalls.

I became the owner of this 1946 Ford 2N when I bought my house , along with a Ford 2 bottom plow, a Montgomery Ward(!) Bush Hog and a few other pieces. This is a pic from when we bought the house, I've been slowly refurbishing it, but that Farmall paint is still on it.
This is the last time my Craftsman GT3000 was alive, the 2011 blizzard. This is me helping a neighbor clear his 150' driveway. Unfortunately, somewhere during the 8 hours of plowing I did that day the oil filter loosened and I lost most of the oil. I was completely unaware of it until I started it up in the spring to take off the snow thrower, and it seized, destroying a rod and several other important parts. No trace of oil in the barn, so thats why I figured it happened during that last time it was used. I'm still debating whether to rebuild it or not. I'll have to buy a new block and transfer the external parts as Kohler doesn't sell that engine anymore. That snow thrower was unstoppable, unlike all of my neighbor's walk behind units.

At least one of our dogs enjoyed the snow. The rest were too darn small! LOL
I also have a Cub Cadet LTX1050, but no photo of that one. I have to say it beats the old craftsman mower in all respects.
edit: I don't know how those two attachments got in here at the bottom of the post, and can't see how to remove them. Sorry !
i like this post took this picture yesterday note the grass is still green

(WMC-TV) – The building at 380 Beale Street has a notorious history, but not everyone wants to see it demolished.
So far, it seems that closing Club Crave, the most recent business to operate the building, has been a popular decision in the community. But knocking down the building may meet with some resistance.
"My initial reaction was that I couldn't believe it," said Erskine Gillespie, who wants to save the building at 380 Beale Street.
Erskine Gillespie created an online petition to save the building just moments after Memphis Mayor A C Wharton announced their plans to knock it down.
"Well, just because you have bad tenants would you tear your house down or would you move those tenants out and find other people that could come in and take care of your property?" said Gillespie.
Gillespie suggests turning back the clock instead and opening a theater for local and independent movies, similar to its original use as the Muhammad Ali Towne 2 Theatre that opened in June 1975.
George Miller owned the building then and now.
When the Plush Club was evicted, he warned future tenants:
"You're going to have to meet the scrub-clean test, and that means the DA is going to check you out."
This time around, Miller has declined comment on the advice of his attorney.
While the mayor and Beale Street merchants try to bulldoze the building, Gillespie hopes his petition collects enough digital signatures to ask them to think again.
"I'm hoping the mayor would give reconsideration to the statement he made on yesterday," said Gillespie. "There is historical value to that building."
He continued, "Let's think about other uses that we can do for that building and bring some more vitality to that end of Beale Street."
Gillespie's condemnation petition is expected to be filed mid-to-late January.
Miller and Crave owners are due in environmental court on Wednesday.

Young people's groups in Cambridgeshire are quids in - thanks to a funding scheme run by the county's High Sheriff.
More than £10,000 in grants was handed out at a special ceremony held at Bottisham Village College.
Twenty youth groups picked up cash awards, which they will now be able to use to run projects in the communities where they are based.
Among the groups receiving grants at the awards ceremony were several from the Cambridge area, including Abbey and Coleridge Action for Youth Football Group, which supports young people and provides activities to help them develop their skills, and Cambourne Boxing Group, set up by the Cambridge charity Romsey Mill following requests from young people in the village.
Cambridge African Network Children's Cultural Dance Troupe, which represents the organisation at community events, also received a grant, as did Sawston Youth Group.
Money also went to Shelford and Stapleford Youth Initiative, which provides a meeting place for young people.
The High Sheriff, Penelope Walkinshaw, said: "During my year as High Sheriff, I have been delighted to meet so many extraordinary young people who work so hard, often against the odds, to make a positive difference to their communities. It is a great pleasure to be able to support so many of these groups with these awards which will help fund their ongoing projects."
During the evening, the audience were treated to performances by three groups - the Sawston Youth Group Band; the Beat This Vocalise Crew and Dance Offensive.
The High Sheriff Award Scheme is administered by Cambridgeshire Community Foundation and grants are made annually to youth groups and organisations in Cambridgeshire. The 2013 award scheme will open for applications in the summer, and details on how to apply are available on the Community Foundation website at www.cambscf.org.uk/highsheriff.html.
The award ceremony was also attended b the Mayor of Cambridge and the Mayors of St Ives, Godmanchester, and Huntingdon and Whittlesey. The chairmen of Cambridgeshire County Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council were also present.

By BOB NORBERG
Only nine votes separate two candidates vying for the final seat on the Sebastopol City Council, a race that may not be decided for days.
"We will just see what happens," said Councilwoman Kathleen Shaffer. "I do want to see what the final vote count is."
Shaffer trails challenger John Eder by nine votes in the contest for her seat.
Robert Jacob, 35, led the voting with 28.9 percent, assuring himself of the seat vacated by Mayor Guy Wilson, who did not seek re-election.
The election was driven by the controversial CVS Pharmacy-Chase Bank branch project, which the council narrowly approved in August on a 3-2 vote.
The project has received the major approvals to go forward. On Friday, CVS completed its purchase of the site, the vacant Pellini Chevrolet dealership, said Bill McDermott, vice president of Armstrong Development of Sacramento.
The election will shift the council's support for the project.
Jacob has been critical of the CVS project. His election creates a new majority on the City Council in opposition to the CVS project — a majority that would grow if Eder, another vocal opponent of the project, defeats Shaffer.
"It is very surprising, it is very enlightening," said Jacob, founder and executive director of the nonprofit Peace In Medicine medical marijuana dispensary. "It shows the values of the Sebastopol citizens. It is exciting to see the progressive majority speak."
Opponents of CVS are holding out hope that a new council majority could yet defeat the project. Jacob did not comment on that scenario.
Shaffer, Wilson and Councilman Patrick Slayter voted to approve the project, while Vice Mayor Michael Kyes and Councilwoman Sarah Gurney opposed it.
"I expect to work with the community and work with the project to help create the best outcome," Jacob said.
Jacob ran the most expensive campaign, raising $32,000, more than all four other candidates combined.
Eder, 59, a representative of Boise Mobile Equipment in Boise, Idaho, was second in the voting, with 24.9 percent. Shaffer received 24.8 percent of the vote.
With the thousands of mail-in and provisional ballots that still need to be counted, the race between Eder and Shaffer is too close to call, Sonoma County elections manager Liz Acosta said.
Kathy Austin, 60, an architect, had 19 percent and Colleen Fernald, 2.4 percent.
Kathleen Schaffer reached out a friendly hand to business and had to be taken down by fellow council members Gurney and Keyes.
Interesting to watch progressives turn on their own.

By Stephanie Springer - bio | email TIFTON, GA (WALB) - Becoming energy independent is the vision of America's energy future, and with the help of new technology we may be able to do just that.
Corn is a great source of energy, and as we look around for alternative energy sources, biomass is becoming a popular choice.
Exhibitors came from near and far to showcase new and innovative ways to turn biomass and other renewable resources into energy.
"A lot of hard working people, hard thinking people come here and share their ideas and help solve the real problems of America," said Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue.
Exhibitor and CEO of Ag Networks Michael Hammond developed a system to help farmers make more use of their energy. "Our system allows them to have a real time view of the farmers operation whether it be the equipment the irrigation, where they are what their doing what their people are doing also where their energy is going and that's what our innovative software portal allows them to do," he said.
Leaders were at the conference to show their support and stress the importance of establishing energy independence.
"We've seen already what happens when we depend on others for our energy it needs to be American it needs to be abundant it needs to be homegrown," Hammond said. "Energy makes progress and prosperity and it needs to be affordable and all those factors contribute to a free society, the kind of society that moms and dads and grandparents want for their children and grandchildren."
As Americans we are used to having ample amounts of energy but it is actually limited and we need to make use of Georgia's abundant natural resources.
"The southeast united states can be to bio diesel what Saudi Arabia is to oil, because we have so many diverse resources grasses to cellulose based ethanol, to sweet potato we have two chicken fat plants in Georgia making bio diesel from chicken fat its great for our state but its also great for our country," said Georgia Sen. Johnny Isakson.
The applications are growing all the time, the senator said. "If you drive down the interstate and you see some kind of signal more often than not its fueled by some sort of solar energy panel sitting right on top of it if you go to a peanut farm more often than not the fuel used to run the tractors is a bio diesel so there are more and more uses all the time."
Leaders at the conference say the next big breakthrough is flex fuels for automobiles, because that's where a tremendous amount of energy consumption goes in the United States.
Leaders at the conference say every time we as consumers buy products or use products made by renewable resources we are doing our part to promote renewable energy.
The conference will go on through August 13th.

In one of the largest U.S. procurement contracts this year, four federal agencies have ordered enterprise-wide cyber security systems for government and civilian networks. If all five years of the contract are funded, the deal will generate $6 billion among 17 suppliers.
The contract stems from the Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) program, which provides specialized information technology and CMaaS (continuous monitoring as a service) capabilities to civilian networks that use the ".gov" suffix. The program will monitor networks in real time, conducting, for example, as many as 80 billion security checks every three days among other actions, to detect and defeat cyber threats. Data from the systems will be summarized on special software operated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and used to identify security problems.
The CDM program is significant in that it moves away from traditional compliance reporting and toward combating threats on a real-time basis. As such, it represents an awareness of and intent to defeat cyber attacks from hackers, criminal groups and other countries.
The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) awarded the contract, along with the Federal Acquisition Service, Assisted Acquisition Services and the Federal Systems Integration and Management Center. Agencies that have signed up for it include DHS, which is spending $185 million to activate the first of three phases in the CDM program.
The Defense Department hasn't agreed to use the system, at least not yet. According to some sources, the defense industrial base—i.e., contractors and their suppliers—will have the option of CDM coverage.

2nd from this brewery.
Pours a lightly hazy honey golden amber tone. NIce carbonation, the main attraction of this brew is the beautiful effervescent head rising to the top of my goblet. The finishing pour creates an apple-juice colored brew, looks great.
Smells of..Westmalle triple! Spicy, peppery, musty grains, oak sourdough, elderflower,hay, yeast, cellar, wild arugula. Second smell reveals orange, coriander, white pepper, wheat, lemon zest. Maybe this is a great undescovered triple!
Flavor is beautiful. Spicy sweet malt, followed by a wave of white pepper, spice, coriander, wheat, orange, lemon, sour yeasty funk a delicate herbal balance, all finishing with a throat warming pepper sensation that belies the 7% ABV. This much more complex packed into a smaller brew.
The ABV also belies the mouthfeel. Spicy, tart, creamy, sour sweet full yet biting all meld into a seemingly perfect Triple.
..I was very unimpressed by this brewery's Lambic, but somehow they have created a world-class triple.
Great discovery!

M&A Roundup: In MI, a $6.4B Merger
One of the best was to a squelch persistent rumor is to acknowledge that it's true.
Last week Henry Ford Health System and Beaumont Health System did just that.
Two of the largest not-for-profit health systems in Michigan publicly confirmed long-swirling speculation that they're pursuing a merger that, if finalized early next year, will create a $6.4 billion integrated healthcare organization serving the southeastern part of the state.
"This kind of change is sweeping every kind of hospital in the United States," Gene Michalski, CEO of Royal Oak-based Beaumont said Thursday in a teleconference confirming the deal.
"Healthcare reform is not going to go away," Michalski said. "There are too many forces that want change in this country to get higher quality, lower cost healthcare for the populations we serve. It is clearly transformative and it is our belief that this collaboration, the joining of these two wonderful health systems, will be transformative in its own right."
"In short, we want to lead events not trail events. These are both strong health systems. We didn't have to partner. We chose to partner."

artist fridays: stacey rozichPosted: January 29, 2010 Filed under: Artists | Tags: artist fridays, california college of arts, characters, folk art, guaoche, illustration, seattle, stacey rozich Leave a comment
This Friday I'll be presenting the work of Stacey Rozich. She is a recent discovery and one that I have looked at a bit since.
She recently attended the California College of Arts and has since moved back to her hometown of Seattle. Her work is influenced by old children's books, graphic novels as well as Slavic folk tales(!!!).
I think what makes her work so wonderful to look at is the surreal nature of the work, and the way she pairs patterns with each other. I love the characters she's created and the context that it references, being a big fan of folk art myself.
I will be curious to see if she ever gives her characters a context (environmentally-wise).

A special edition of some work in progress: I kept going on and on about Friday, and this is what I had completed Thursday night. I looks as though I can mostly complete this piece by this evening.
I redid the original guy because I was pretty unhappy with him. Much more pleased with this particular fellow.
golden thursdays: art seidenPosted: January 28, 2010 Filed under: golden books | Tags: art seiden, dinosaurs, golden thursdays, illustration, missy, vintage 2 Comments
For this week of Golden Thursdays (I unfortunately can't get to the image for the header), I dedicate this entry to my dear friend Missy. If you know Missy, you know that she LOVES dinosaurs. I came across this book and not only loved the images and the story, but instantly thought of my dear friend.
The book I will be writing about today is Dinosaur Comes to Town. Art Seiden illustrated this book in 1963. The story is amusing – it's about a dinosaur that comes arrives in a city, scaring off the animals and eventually settling on eating 60 million hamburgers. What's not to love? (The illustrations, obviously!) I must say I am not a fan of the font for the cover/title pages, but I love the tiny mark-making and details put into the animals. I enjoy that they aren't outlined, but they still have that element of detail to them.
When researching Art Seiden is a prolific illustrator- he created the images for over 300 books, in addition to writing books as well! Originally from New York, he entered the world of advertising with clients from hillip Morris, Hoffmann-LaRoche, General Motors and Hearst Publications.

in progess and blog talkPosted: January 27, 2010 Filed under: in progress, Tech | Tags: art, blog, collage, cut paper, illustration, in progress, willful creatures, wordpress 4 Comments
Wednesday already, huh! Still chugging along on this piece:
I didn't add too much to it last night, but there is another part (the giant man – I am redoing him) that I didn't post. That will be for FRIDAY, when I finish this.
Also I have been working on another blog to be launched around Valentines Day that won't really be about me at all, but will be more about works on paper that I like. A more professional blog. Marshmellow Kisses will still be around, but it won't be as frequently posted in and will be more personal work than it is now. Stay tuned!
With the new blog, I've been working through wordpress.org rather than wordpress.com. It's amazing the amount of content-managed sites that are built using wordpress.org. Big names – CNN, People.com, etc., all use the wordpress source.
what i wore illustratedPosted: January 26, 2010 Filed under: art | Tags: fashion, flickr, illustration, lizzy stewart, scotland, what i wore Leave a comment
If you've been reading my blog for a while, you probably know my affinity for "What I Wore" blogs. Embarassingly enough, those are some of my favorite blogs to read (and often deters me from reading the news/other important topics).
I was perusing Flickr the other day and found a "What I Wore" photo pool, only illustrated! I was intrigued. It combines two things I love – illustration with (fashion) blogs. Below is one Flickr stream I really enjoy. The illustrator is Lizzy Stewart and she's a freelance illustrator and design based in Edinborough, Scotland. She has a number of other charming drawings at her website, About Today.
I love her style – so delicate yet very fresh.

over my useless weekendPosted: January 25, 2010 Filed under: art, willful creatures | Tags: acylic, aimee bender, art, collage, cut paper, illustration, over the weekend, wilfull creatures Leave a comment
I am still working on the same piece I've been working on for a while now — I was hoping that I could finish it this past weekend but Sunday rendered me utterly useless. Plus, I took out the guy I had originally in the piece because I want to redo him. I'm also working on another blog (which I will be launching around Valentine's Day!) so I've been slowly learning some code and reading tutorials on how to make a more dynamic blog by using wordpress.org and not wordpress.com.
The background on this is done for the most part – really, there isn't too much left! My goal is to finish this by FRIDAY. Let's see if I can make it happen!
artist fridays: amy cutlerPosted: January 22, 2010 Filed under: Artists | Tags: aimee bender, amy cutler, art, artist fridays, fairy tales, fantasy, illustration, leslie tonkonow, surreal Leave a comment
While I was in Los Angles last summer, I stayed with my friend Jess. Jess has a lot of neat/interesting things in her apartment, one of them being a framed picture of a woman sewing up tigers. I really enjoyed the delicacy of the work as well as the fantastical-yet-grounded imagery.
It wasn't until recently that I found out that the artist in question was named Amy Cutler. I looked up her other work, and it all has totally blown me away. I find it very compelling and so masterfully done – it's very luscious with rich pattens and line work. The style is confident and very matter-of-fact, making anything that happens in her world seem grounded in normalcy.
I think I respond so positively to Amy because she has in her work what I want in my own – her associations with dreams, surrealism and fairy tales.
She is an internationally know artist and has many solo and group exhibitions. She doesn't have a website, but is represented by Leslie Tonkonow in New York City.

golden thursdays: jp millerPosted: January 21, 2010 Filed under: golden books | Tags: golden books, golden thursdays, gouache, illustration, jp miller, vintage 1950's pattern 5 Comments
For this edition of Golden Thursdays, I am introducing Lucky Mrs. Ticklefeather, written by Dorothy Kunhardt and illustrated by J.P. Miller.
J.P. Miller illustrated a number of different Golden Books, perhaps his most famous being Little Red Hen. I am unable to find a lot of information on him, but he illustrated Golden Books between the 40's and 60's, and the Lucky Mrs. Ticklefeather was written in 1951.
I have seen some of his other work where his style varies slightly than the illustrations I am showing you today. Lucky Mrs. Ticklefeather has colors that are a bit more opaque and give the work a bit more texture. His other style has a softer look with watercolors. I greatly prefer the opaqueness with the dry brushing and hard-lined shapes.
One thing I loved while looking at this book were the patterns, and the nice balance of solid fields of color with small, delicate patterning. It's rather indicative of this era of illustration, is it not?

YARNELL, AZ - A wildfire burning five miles east of the communities of Yarnell and Peeples Valley in north-central Arizona is now 75 percent contained and is only smoldering.
Officials say the French Gulch Fire was at 836 acres Thursday. That's a slightly lower figure than was released Wednesday.
Officials expect full containment by Friday evening.
The lightning-caused blaze is in the same region of western Yavapai County as the deadly Yarnell Hill fire that killed 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots on June 30.
State forestry officials say the current fire is burning in brush and low trees in extremely rugged terrain where there's no road access for firefighters.
Officials say 160 personnel are battling the blaze. Helicopters are dropping water and transporting crews.
The fire started Saturday night and isn't threatening any structures.

Hey I'm looking at getting the La Sportiva Muira VS's for bouldering/sport climbing (my moccs are dying after years of service). I have a slight case of Morton's toe and wear a 10.5 (EU 44.5) and tried on a 43 (9.5) and 42 (8.5). The place I went didn't have a 42.5. The 42s are super tight, mildly painful, so I'm probably getting them unless I feel better when I find a 42.5. Here's the question: my toes knuckled a fair amount in the 42s, but I had this feeling that the big toe wasn't jammed completely to the end. I could stand on the tips of my toes (like a ballerina LOL), so I don't think performance is going to suffer, but I just wanted to see whether not having your big toe feel flush with the shoe is common among Morton's toe "sufferers" and whether the shoe molds to fit your feet in that way, and whether performance is adversely affected by this issue? I don't want the shoe to stretch and then have a gap between the big toe and the shoe. The Muira's feel like they would perform amazingly and I'd prefer something slightly more high-performance than the Anasazi VCS that I'm also considering. Those were great-fitting, but I feel like they'd be disadvantaged for overhanging boulders, and I'm an edge-aholic, which the Muiras felt superior for. Thanks for any help!
I wonder if there are other companies that make climbing shoes? Probably not, bummer.
I also have two different sized feet, so I'm biased, but the shoes that have fit me best we the Evolv Optimus, the velcro ones. I bet the lace version would do well too. The toe box is really fat, and seems to let all my toes contact the end pretty well, even though I don't have high volume feet.
I've got Mortons and wear the muira vs. They are hands down the best shoe I've ever worn. Fits like a glove. I'd make a real effort to find a 42.5 if you can. My big toe barely touches the end, the rest of my toes are bent slightly. If I wear a half size smaller and my big toe is bent slightly, the shoes become too tight to wear comfortably. Ymmv, of course.
Yeah, on one foot. I'm from NC and my parents were cousins so my feet are all f'd up.
I don't have Morton's, but my second toe is the same length as my big toe. I had a similar problem with the Muira VS. No matter how much I downsized, my big toe never felt like it was all that tight. Every other toe could be painfully knuckled over and yet my big toe seemed like it was flat. In the end, I got Scarpa Feroces and never looked back. Have you tried Scarpa?

3Di OpenViewer: access Opensim worlds from your browserSun, 08/30/2009 - 13:24 — Zonja
I posted a comment:
Great work and post Zonja. I also went into OSGrid inside Firefox, but like you found myself as a ball of light without textures. Hopefully the license issues will be resolved quickly and the code made available to the open source community. Time is of the essence.
Linden Lab must also know how to do this and I doubt they are asleep at the wheel. The new Second Life web site appears to be designed to accommodate replacing the flash videos and still images with SLLive ™ (I will watch for their™ application`~LoL~)
My prediction is that within 12 months they will get SL cleaned up and go viral. They have started by dividing up the community and grid into Adult only(18 and up) and all else. This opens the bulk of SL to the massive audience of the whole web (0 and up). They have a lot of work to be ready for the expected explosive growth and providing all the other "offerings" (Xstreet, Voice calls, Mobile, etc.) I see them following two approaches once they have it set to launch.
- Look into SL using any browser and see multi media everywhere (via: LLMediaAPI) and meet other people like you: Just go to SecondLife.com and look inside SL real time, say Hi to someone... and then get your own embed widget for your Facebook page
- Transform the SL viewer into The New Hot Web 3.0 browser, beat Firefox or IE to the punch with full browser functionality/compatibility, No training Browser look and feel, plus full 3D just a URL/SURL away. Think back buttons, bookmarks,History, search, multiple SIms like web pages in tabs, 2D inside 3D inside 2D, end the divide between flat content and 3D, all in one browser.
Will this happen - YES

Liverpool's patience with Stewart Downing appears to be coming close to its end, and Brendan Rodgers' latest set of quotes seems to be intended to send the winger, who arrived from Aston Villa two summers ago and has done approximately nothing since, one simple message: Try harder or get out.
[I]f you are not quite right in your preparation and you come in looking in for an easy life, pick up your money, it won't be here. We are a club that has to be fighting going forward.
Stewart is a good guy who came here for an awful lot of money. It hasn't quite worked out for him as he would want it. The big challenge for him now is that commitment to the cause to fight because he has the qualities.
He has a wonderful left foot, but talent alone is not enough. You have to work hard, you have to fight for the shirt. We have seen that with a number of the young players and if you don't do that then longer-term you won't be here.
The ones that don't put their bodies on the line stand out like a sore thumb. For me status does not matter. It doesn't matter how much money you have come for.
It's perhaps harsh on Downing, who cannot be in a good place mentally after becoming Liverpool's fourth-most expensive buy barely a year ago and flopping badly at Anfield. But with £20 million invested in the winger -- plus not-exactly-cheap wages -- it'll be particularly galling for Rodgers to see Downing looking for 'an easy life'. Rodgers made it clear that the 28-year-old, as well as left back Jose Enrique, will be out of Liverpool as soon as possible unless they step up their performances and improve their attitude.
Whether or not the duo are capable of such a feat is yet to be seen.

Golf Darts
Our dorm building had a square footprint. In the very middle were three elevators serving the dorm rooms which were all positioned along the edges of the building. In between the elevators and the rooms was a square hallway that ran in a loop.
This was to be our arena for Golf Darts, a sport we invented to aid our more scholarly pursuit - procrastination.
On one door we set up a target. The goal was to go around the hallway, arrive back at the target and hit it.
Darts were thrown at walls. Hitting the same wall twice in a row incurred a two stroke penalty. So did hitting the water (the floor).
The game was fun, but the most fun part may have been the danger we brought to the floor. As we went around the hallway people would exit their dorms only to be greeted by darts whizzing past their faces.
Most of them would be intrigued by the spectacle and would follow the ever growing pack of spectators following us around the circuit.
The one problem was the doors. At the end of each side of the square hallway was a door, which became a popular target. After playing for an hour or two they had become littered with holes concentrated in one area. It looked really bad.
Terry pounded a long shot into a wall. He missed the door, but also avoided the dreaded carpet by half a foot. He continued down the hall and I wound up to throw.
Just as I was about to release the dart, the door to the stairwell in front of me opened up. It was our RA.
She looked at me, and then at the crowd behind me.
"Tynan... what are you doing?"
"Oh... just hanging out."
She gave me a suspicious look. My poker face wasn't all that convincing.
".... and playing golf darts."
She turned around and saw Terry's dart stuck in the wall. I looked behind me because no one else seemed to be chiming in. They were gone, hiding in dorm rooms. I wanted to escape too, but it was too late.
She took the dart, shook her head, and started to leave when something else caught her eye.
The door full of dart holes.
"Oh no. This is too much. I try to be cool with you guys and cut you some slack, but you have destroyed the door. I have to write you up. I have no choice."
She left.
We didn't want to face the wrath of the building manager again. He had recently forced us to take down a porch light we installed in the hallway as well as a large brass knocker on our door. To try to remedy the situation I set up a meeting with him, which ended with him standing over his desk, face beet red, yelling at me.
And that wasn't our only encounter. He had also confiscated my lock picking gun earlier, and refused to return it.
So we did what any unreasonable group of college kids would do. We chipped off a corner of the door and headed to home depot.
We used the corner of the door to match the color of the paint. We bought rollers, tape, putty and a putty knife.
The work took longer than we expected, but maybe that shouldn't come as a huge surprise since none of us had ever repaired a door. By the end the two doors we painted actually looked better than they did before we destroyed them.
Our RA was equally impressed.
"Oh my god! I can't believe what a good job you guys did. I went into the RA office and tore up the report I wrote about you."
Mission accomplished.

Boat Race swimmer told to avoid public events
The man who halted the University Boat Race has been told to avoid several public events including the Olympic torch relay.
The man who halted the University Boat Race has been told to avoid several public events including the Olympic torch relay.
British Olympic Association chairman Lord Moynihan has said that security chiefs "can never completely remove" the threat of disruption.
The 158th University Boat race had to be halted after a protester swam towards the boats.
The London Boat Race is now only weeks away and crews are to be officially unveiled later this morning.
Weigh ins will also take place in front of the waiting media in Central London.
For those who weren't boat race fans, the real action took place at Spitalfields City Farm today, at the fifth annual Oxford and Cambridge Goat race.
Two goats, named after each university, went head to head. The event was so popular that over a thousand early tickets sold out.
The winning crew finished in 17 minutes and 27 seconds to cut Cambridge's overall lead to 81-77.
Oxford have emerged as clear favourites to win the Boat Race after more than 70% of bets were placed on the Dark Blues, according to bookmaker William Hill.
Spokesman Joe Crilly said: "Oxford are certainly the best backed crew as of yet, although that was very much the case at this stage of proceedings last year.
"Last year, however, we took nearly £40,000 on the day of the race and Cambridge became best backed by the time the race started. Maybe history will repeat itself this time around."
Don't forget, later on is the annual @theboatrace between Putney and Chiswick. Bridges affected include Putney, Hammersmith, ...cont. (1/2)
It may be over-shadowed by its rowing equivalent but the 5th annual Oxford and Cambridge Goat Race also takes place today.
The race between the two goats, named after the famous universities, will happen at Spitalfields City Farm in East London.
Here's a glimpse of what happened last year:
Royal Marines will patrol the River Thames today to make sure there is no disruption to the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.
Organisers are trying to stop any repeat of last year when the annual race was stopped by Trenton Oldfield, who swam into the path of the crews.
The race's Executive Director, David Searle, said: "We are taking additional measures this year and have reviewed all of our actions last year in detail.
"The Boat Race course is four and a quarter miles long so we have eight and a half miles of riverbank to manage and monitor.
"What I would say to anybody thinking of disrupting the race is that it's unbelievably dangerous. You risk injuring yourself, the crews and the other people following the race.
"Nobody wants that to happen. This is just a sporting event."
Royal Marines will be stationed in inflatable boats along the length of the Boat Race course tomorrow to ensure the event is not disrupted by another protester in the water.
Last year's race had to be halted when Trenton Oldfield swam into the path of the two crews and narrowly avoided being struck by an Oxford oar as he looked to sabotage an event he regarded as elitist.
Oldfield was released from prison in December having served seven weeks of a six-month sentence after being found guilty of causing a public nuisance.
Cambridge won the restarted race.
Royal Marines will be positioned along the bank of the River Thames between Putney and Chiswick for this year's Boat Race. It comes after protestor, Trenton Oldfield was jailed for swimming across the path of rowers during last year's race.
Oldfield was released from prison in December 2012 after serving seven weeks of a six month sentence for causing a public nuisance.
The Metropolitan Police recently contacted him to see if he was planning to protest at the 2013 event. Oldfield wrote back saying "I'll probably have a walk in the Cotswolds instead."


text: I'm going to keep this short and allow ya'll to head to the link to check it out for yourself. But according to Fox Sports, Devin Ebanks, ranked No. 13 in the country by Scout.com, is considering Texas as one of the schools he'll attend. He was allowed out of his letter-of-intent after Sampson was fired. My question is how does this affect our recruiting of other players, and do we have room for him?

Proven to end urine marking and scratching safely and naturally. Feliway mimics the natural face pheromone found in cats. Sprayed in the cat's environment, it creates a familiar atmosphere that has a calming effect and reduces the impulse to mark and scratch. Also calms cats in stressful situations such as transport, hospitalization or boarding. Helps cats adjust to new environments, new pets and new people.
* Clinically proven to end urine marking within 30 days with a 95% success rate.
It's important to continue treatment for 30 days. Marking should cease within that time. In extreme cases, however, "reminder" maintenance sprays may be necessary every 2 to 3 days.
If the cat is over 10 years old, spray areas once daily for 45 days. Repeat every 2-3 days for the rest of his life.
To prevent sexually oriented marking, it's only necessary to spray the soiled areas - which are normally near exits.
If you believe a change in the home may initiate marking, you can prevent it by spraying Feliway on furniture, doors and in the corners of rooms as you would if the cat were marking.
To prevent scratching, Feliway should be sprayed once per day on areas or surfaces that could be attractive to the cat (typically surfaces that are fully visible and vertical).
How to use FeliwayFeliway is easy to use. To end urine marking, clean off urine using water or alcohol ONLY. Cleansers or detergents may diminish Feliway's effectiveness.
1. Apply a single spray of Feliway twice a day wherever the cat has marked
2. Also spray on prominent objects such as furniture, doors, potted plants and corners of rooms, once a day
3. Continue use for 30 days to ensure no relapse in marking behavior
4. Spray from 4 inches away and approximately 8 inches from the floor
5. If the cat is seen marking an object with his own facial pheromones, it won't be necessary to respray it

Comments about Farnam Feliway Comfort Zone Feline Behavior Modification Spray:
I foster cats for a rescue group, and personality clashes great and small are a part of that. This product has made a remarkable difference in the behavior of the cats and kittens here. Adults are less grouchy and actually enjoy interacting with each other and kittens. They aren't sedated or dopy acting. Just calmer and less territorial. Certainly worth a try for any anxious or problem cats

Comments about Farnam Feliway Comfort Zone Feline Behavior Modification Spray:
From the instructions, this seems to be the same Feliway product we just received from our vet. If that's the case, it works.
We have a cat who is a sweetheart, but gets extremely anxious (continual pacing, bouncing on the bed at night, etc.) if not let outside. If he's in too long, he starts beating up our other cat out of frustration.
Well, so far so good. Literally overnight, he is calmer and not as anxious.
We have a couple of sprays on the carpet by the door and on his bedding (in- and outside).
Farnam is the fastest-growing name in pet care with a full range of proven products for dogs, cats and ferrets.

The state of Arkansas will have to rethink how it puts prisoners to death thanks to the state's Supreme Court ruling on Friday (PDF) that its current procedures are unconstitutional.
In a split decision, the top court's justices ruled that the legislature had "abdicated its responsibility" by turning over control of executions and execution protocol to the Department of Corrections, which is vested in the state's executive branch.
The decision came after 10 death row inmates challenged their sentences with a novel legal argument that struck at the basis of the law by claiming the Department of Corrections did not have the right to determine what chemicals should be used in executions via lethal injection. Hoping to avoid this very scenario, lawmakers passed an update to the state's death penalty law in 2009, which the court has just struck down.
It is not yet clear what the state will do with regards to its death penalty, which still remains in place. Attorneys who spoke to The Associated Press on Friday said Arkansas may just opt to revert to a 1983 law that allowed executions to be carried out via electric chair.

Eagles sign DE Burgess
DE Derrick Burgess has been signed by the Eagles, who are in need of pass-rush help after placing rookie Brandon Graham on injured reserve Monday.
Vikings-Eagles Week 16 game flexed
The Week 16 Vikings-Eagles game has been flexed to the Sunday-night prime-time slot.
Graham tears ACL, Bradley should return for postseason
Eagles DE Brandon Graham will miss the rest of the season with an ACL tear while MLB Stewart Bradley will miss the rest of the regular season with a dislocated elbow.
Eagles-Cowboys notch best 'SNF' overnight rating
Sunday night's Eagles-Cowboys game scored the best overnight rating in "Sunday Night Football" history.
Jackson, Eagles too much for Cowboys
DeSean Jackson's go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter was among many big plays for him and the Philadelphia Eagles, sending them to a 30-27 victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night.
Eagles red-faced about defensive failures
The Eagles are on pace to be historically bad in terms of red-zone efficiency on defense, and that could have negative ramifications come playoff time.
Samuel, Justice out for Eagles vs. Cowboys
The Eagles have ruled out CB Asante Samuel and ORT Winston Justice for their NFC East battle with the Cowboys on Sunday night.
Vick out for revenge on his fantasy skeptics
Sometimes having too much fantasy football experience can be detrimental to your success. Take the case of Michael Vick, for instance.
McCoy rivals Vick in Eagles' offense
There is no question that Michael Vick plays a vital role in the Eagles' offense, but RB LeSean McCoy has been almost as important.
Reports: Eagles make NFL aware of hits on Vick
Multiple media outlets are reporting that the NFL has been made aware of the Eagles' concerns involving hits on QB Michael Vick.
Vick rallies Eagles past Texans 34-24
Michael Vick threw for 302 yards and accounted for three touchdowns, rallying the Philadelphia Eagles to a 34-24 victory over the Houston Texans on Thursday night.

Jackson-Reid spat won't divide Eagles
Multiple sources are reporting that Eagles WR DeSean Jackson was called out by head coach Andy Reid in the coach's postgame address, but this will not linger.
Bears alone in first after win over Eagles
Jay Cutler tied a career high with four touchdown passes and the Bears beat Michael Vick and the Eagles 31-26 to take sole possession of the NFC North lead on Sunday.
Despite restructuring Michael Vick's contract and signing Dennis Dixon, the Philadelphia Eagles aren't shopping Foles and would want a first- or second-round pick to even consider it, a person familiar with the team's plans told The Associated Press on Friday.||||||| The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because the Eagles won't publicly discuss trade rumors, said new coach Chip Kelly and the front-office brass "haven't discussed trading Foles with any team." Foles was selected in the third round with the 88th overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. The Eagles "absolutely" rate his value higher than that because of his success as a rookie, the person said.
The Philadelphia Eagles have placed Foles on injured reserve.||||||| Foles broke his hand in last Sunday's loss to Washington.
Foles has a broken right hand, and coach Andy Reid said Michael Vick will likely start against the New York Giants in Sunday's season finale.||||||| Reid said Monday that Foles broke his throwing hand in the second quarter of a 27-20 loss to Washington, but returned to the game after X-rays at the stadium were negative. An MRI taken on Monday revealed a hairline fracture, Reid said. Reid added because it's a non-displaced fracture, Foles should be 100 percent in about three weeks.
