ANTHONY, N.M. (AP) — A New Mexico biofuel facility caught fire Tuesday, sending a giant column of black smoke into the air and prompting authorities to briefly evacuate an area that includes about 350 homes.
A series of small explosions was reported at the Rio Valley Biofuels plant near the town of Anthony, but there was no immediate word of any injuries, Dona Ana County spokesman Jess Williams said. Operations manager Jed Smith said he believed all five employees who work at the plant were OK.
County officials activated their emergency operations center and declared a hazardous materials emergency, Williams said. The immediate area was evacuated, but residents were allowed back in to their homes by early afternoon.
Anthony is on the New Mexico-Texas line between Las Cruces, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas.
Witnesses described hearing loud explosions and seeing large flames as fire trucks and emergency responders rushed to the scene.
"We heard a few explosions, then a really loud one," witness Miguel Favela said. "You could hear the fire burning."
The fire was first reported shortly after 9 a.m. A Rio Valley Biofuels manager said about 2½ hours later that it was "basically out — smoldering." Crews were still dousing the site with flames several hours after the accident.
Williams and Smith both said the cause of the fire was not yet known.
The half-mile area around the plant was evacuated because of the threat of blasts from the methanol on the premises, authorities said. Other chemicals on site include vegetable oil, hydrochloric acid and bio-diesel fuel.
According to Rio Valley Biofuels' website, the company began commercially producing bio-diesel fuel from recycled oil from local food processors in 2006. The company said it gets oil from sources that include vegetable oil, crude cottonseed, sunflower, soy, palm and canola.
The plant produces between 3,000 and 6,000 gallons a day, the company website says.
County hazardous-materials specialists plan to inspect the site further to determine what chemicals may have been affected or released in the fire.
Fire crews from several agencies responded to the biofuel facility, along with sheriff's deputies and New Mexico State Police.

MLS makes progress with overseas licensing
Published May 23, 2011, Page 5
A source familiar with the Supermarcas deal said it includes a $10,000 guarantee as well as an undisclosed percentage of total sales. A representative from Asiana confirmed the deal but declined to discuss terms. Both licensees will bring the products to market in September.
"We see tremendous marketing value in licensing products outside the U.S.," said Stuart Crystal, MLS vice president of marketing and consumer products. "Fans can connect with our teams. Someday our teams may travel there or we may sell TV rights."
Moacir Galbinski, vice president of Supermarcas, said he anticipates local interest in MLS to increase in the buildup to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Galbinski said the Los Angeles Galaxy is tops among MLS popularity in South America because it features international stars David Beckham, Landon Donovan and Brazilian player Juninho.
Galbinski said MLS products will be at 150 stores in South America.
MLS has licensing agreements with Adidas and EA Sports to distribute sports apparel and video games, respectively, with team and player likenesses overseas. According to Adidas, which began selling MLS apparel overseas in 2007, 98 percent of its MLS business is in the U.S. and Canada. Crystal said offshore business makes up between 5 and 10 percent of MLS's licensing business.

Quickest service in & out ever, very organized & friendly
When I was first contacted on Saturday to confirm my reservation for Sunday, a woman named Sheila contacted me from U-Haul trying to tell me that I had to pick up my truck on Saturday even though I had no driver for it. Instead of them driving the truck from that location to the one that was open on Sunday, apparently it was easier to just give me a 20' truck versus the 14' that I had reserved. I made my reservation at least two weeks prior to my move and then was told THE DAY BEFORE that I had to pick up the truck early. UNACCEPTABLE. I will no longer be using U-Haul in the future and will be recommending to those I know that don't either.
free gas ?
I can't remember her name, but the employee that assisted me was very helpful.
James was a true gentleman and very helpful.
insure engine oil level and windshield washer fluid levels are full prior to customer departure. Thank you. Truck handled very well and we are most satisfied with uhaul experience.
Great store up there in the Northland. I never knew all the products that are available, for very fair prices I might add. Good job Duluth. I will be back there someday down the road.
Wonderful, easy, efficient staff working at this location. There is nothing to improve on.
Employee at the Hermantown location " Erin " was very polite and knowledgeable about her job. I haven been in business for 28 years and always want to let businesses now how good or bad an employee is and was very impress with Erin.
Thank You

thanks for your help!!!
Job well done Evan
Excellent staff. Made me feel very welcome and definitely were professional and their price quotes and treatment was way above expectations.
Measure the trailer yourself because if your 6 ft bookshelf does not fit you still need to pay even if you return it in leas than 20 mins. I told the woman I reserved the trailer w that I needed to move a 6 ft tall bookcase so probably needed an enclosed trailer so it wouldn't tip ant since 8 ft long better have the 5 ft wide. Bookshelf didn't fit so I was back in just the time it took to drive down there and back. The bookshelf was an auction item that had to be removed by 3 that day. Since it didn't fit, and did not have time to drive back down w a larger unit, I lost the bookshelf I paid for and still had to pay for the trailer. Won't trust their judgement that items will fit again.
rude mad because he had to go outside in the snow
First class customer service. Suggested the perfect vehicle for me to use for my needs. I will definitely use them again and suggest them to others.
Great customer support by James.
Staffing shortfall had noticeable impact on processing time, but all around good experience.
Just stay same great helpfull folks you always are.
Got the old, call the 800 number to make the arraingements, was quoted $71.00 for a two day rental and told I had to put the insurance ( extra $ 10.00 ) on the van, then
The manager at the Duluth Mn store tried charging me $ 91.00 for one day of use, I put up a little fight but needed the van so, I finally got the van for 71 for one day, not two along with a not so Manager style attitude, his quote, " I dont know what the 800 operator told you, I wasnt there ", yet he had all the other information on the screen right in front of him.
Truck had very dim headlights, wipers were bad. Misinformation with reservation. Would probably not use uhaul again.
Was the first time I have rented a U-haul and not only were they ready for me on time, but they actually had the vehicle I ordered ready and in good condition
no comment
Check in and return were both super! Who knew that the best customer service in Duluth would be found at Uhaul? Thanks for such a great experience guys!
Eric was super helpful and efficient. We were pressed for time and he got us processed and back on the road quickly.
Great staff. Very helpful and friendly.

Yahoo Settlement Payouts In OMS Case Begin
Yahoo is distributing payments in the Online Merchant Systems class action
settlement over alleged flaws in its bidding system.
The case was settled I believe in 2006 (the settlement
agreement, PDF format, is undated). A final judgment was entered in April of
this year, with notification to happen by June 9,
according to the class action's web site:
On April 25, 2007, the Court entered the Final Judgment and Order of
Dismissal with Prejudice in the Online Merchant Systems v. Yahoo! action.
Notification related to processed claims will be distributed via e-mail on or
before June 9, 2007, to claimants who submitted a claim form for this
Frank Watson over at Search Engine Watch
reported this
week on being one of the people receiving refunds. As for the case itself, the
key issue according to the case notice (PDF)
was this:
The Action alleges that when the System's budgeting feature was used,
certain advertisers would be removed from search results when their daily
budgets had been fully exhausted, but their bids would remain visible for
other bidders to see in a manner that did not indicate that Event Date.
A previous version said the payments were related to the Yahoo settlement of
a click fraud class
action case. That's an entirely different case, and payments are not being
sent out in it yet. Most comments below relate to that earlier version.

How long before our warehouse inventory disappears and this becomes an issue? I don't know. Since consumer spending has plummeted, it may take a while but that may be accelerated by retailers panicking and dumping product for little above cost.
Eventually though, expect this to create bare shelves in stores.
We'd better start producing our own goods again or we're doomed as a nation.... but then that's the plan, don't you think?

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I am a proud parent of a Chester Arthur first grader. There is a very caring and supportive environment at CA - the teachers, administrators, and students seem to truly care about one another. The school is small and its support team accessible. It is making great strides toward increasing its offerings and will only continue to bloom.
Chester Arthur has improved greatly in the last couple of years. There is an excellent new principal, many committed teachers and an ever-improving level of commitment from the community. The school just had a new play structure installed, has a whole bunch of new technology in support of STEM Education and quite a number of programs related to the Arts. The school's outside support organization (FoCA) is also excellent and has raised a lot of money for the school and helped the community get involved. FoCA recently held an event that raised about $25,000 for STEM education.
My daughter attended kindergarten here last year, and will be entering 1st grade here next week. She loves going to school, and the principal and teachers here are motivated and caring. The community has really rallied around this little school in the last few years and it is blossoming. I'll also be sending my youngest here too come 2016 .
The new leadership (ie. principal) at this school has created an awesome energy - the staff, students and community are all a part of this exciting change.
I've been involved in this school for the past 4 years (I have a child who will enter Kindergarten there in 2016) and I've been amazed at what a little gem it is. The Principal is amazing, the teachers are great, and the students arrive eager to learn. It's a small, neighborhood school and I'd encourage any prospective families to check it out.
I am a proud parent of a child attending this school. The teachers are in tune with ckildren needs and are will to answer any quetions.
This school has undergone a recent change in administration and the results have not been positive. The staff has some very strong teachers, but there is no saying how many will come back to a school whose administration is proving to be more of an obstacle than a benefit.

Berkeley, Califo...
A lace back crop-top with a matching jersey maxi skirt. I posted a tutorial on my blog mollytov.com for anybody who might want to make the top and skirt themselves.
The skirt's an easy project, a good intro to drafting custom fit garments. It can be sewn with a regular sewing machine or a serger.
The top might be more of an intermediate level project, it's takes a little more intuition to draft, and requires stretch binding on the neckline and armholes (which can be a pain in the butt to do) but I have links to great instructions if you're willing to try it. Oh, and the top really does look way better if you sew it with a serger, since the seams will show through the lace.
But yeah, let me know what you think! I'm always looking for constructive criticism!

Private New York Walking Tour with a Personal Photographer
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Private New York Walking Tour with a Personal Photographer. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
A great introduction to New York!. Marc taught us how to use the subway, gave us lots of tips and shared interesting information about the sights at which we were being photographed. Can't believe how much we covered in 3 hours. Unfortunately the weather was not great that day...but can't blame anyone for that!
We enjoyed a great afternoon with Marc. He met us on time at the designated meeting place and planned out our afternoon so that we could see some great sights but also be close to our planned evening activity. His knowledge of the city was outstanding and he gave us great tips and advice especially on using the subway! After we got used to feeling like film stars and being photographed at every minute, we moved around the city swiftly but with ease and now we have a huge number of fantastic photos which were sent via email that evening. This was a great experience and we would thoroughly recommend it to everyone!
My partner and I had the BEST time with Kennedy on our tour! Not only were all our photos amazing but the tips he gave us about all things New York were extremely helpful. I'd recommend purchasing the 3 hour tour so you can fit in more sites (this is the one we did)! I would also recommend this tour to anyone who's never been to New York (do it on your first few days like we did) or to anyone who wants to have a great time out and have some fantastic photos taken!
We had a great tour with Mark. At last perfect photos of New York and both of us in them! Mark knew all the best angles and not only did we visit the iconic images but also the quieter streets in Brooklyn. A great tour.
Kelly B
We had a wonderful time with our guide and personal photographer Mark. Well worth the money. Mark is a fountain of knowledge! Great idea....thanks Mark!
Excellent, we could not fault this trip. Marc was a great host and we loved our whistle stop tour of new York. The photos are excellent and a great way to capture your visit. Woud recommend to anyone.
Marc was fabulous. We did 4 locations in two hours, he was personable, fun and very knowledgeabe.
Pictures were fabulous! Thanks Marc.
We took a 3hr late morning tour the first day we arrived in New York. It was really worth booking. Marc was good fun very informative and in three hours covered everywhere we wanted to go. He gave us a great insight into NYC and gave great advise on how to get around and sights to see. And have some terrific pictures to keep. Keep up the good work.
Emily R
Wonderful time with wonderful guide.
An incredible experience and awesome photos. Kennedy was such a nice person and made it so comfortable. Wish we have this sort of professional photography tour whenever we go out on holidays!
Definitely can not recommend any less. Totally worth.
Fantastic day with Marc. Would definately recommend for anybody who wants to orientate themselves with the city, save time and have photos to remember. This was a highlight start to a great adventure.
Can't recommend this enough ,fantastic morning with lovely photographs .....Kennedy is such a lovely genuine guy thank u xx
me and my fiance had such a BLAST and mark is so GREAT i would defernitly say pick this if u r going to new york, i wld give it 10 stars if i could it is that great :)
Was very informative and had fun taking pictures all around the city.
The best tour ever, Marc was great. He took us to Grand central, Central park, Brooklyn bridge and…We basically saw everything we wanted to see within two hours and had great photos delivered the next day to our hotel. So, I really recommend it!!!!!

Mel Wellman - Swisher Sweet
Artist: Mel Wellman
Producer: Mel Wellman
Album: Substance Abuse
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 11 votes )
A buzzmaking emcee and producer hailing from the City of Brotherly Love, Mel Wellman introduces himself to The DJBooth with a fresh song release off his forthcoming full-length. Dedicated to a girl who really knows how to roll a blunt (among her many other talents), Swisher Sweet finds the artist paying lyrical tribute to the "P" and "W" in Weezy's famous trifecta. A steamy smokers' anthem like this one isn't complete without a suitably trippy instrumental backdrop, and Wellman manages to match the mood perfectly on the production tip, creating a hazy beat centered around a reversed vocal sample. Judging by the title, this is just one of many THC-inspired cuts to be found on the artist's Substance Abuse tape; keep it locked for all the latest on the currently-unscheduled project!

And when you get the ball use it, because you need it to score, so don't ******* give the thing away. The rugby ball is important to have control of. When you don't have control of it, you have to fight like **** to get it back. But remember this, lose with class, win with class.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Maybe this discussion has already taken place somewhere on Typophile, but I was wondering : which language using the Latin alphabet as its normal writing system (i.e. not romanized Eastern languages such as Vietnamese, Thai, etc.) uses the greatest number of diacritics ?
Slovak 19
Niderlandish(?) 17
Portuguese 16
Czech and French 15
(A. Tomaszewski, Leksykon pism drukarskich, Warszawa 1996)
Is that supposed to be Dutch [Nederlands, in German: Niederländisch]?
If so, this number is probably due to the fact that every vowel can have an acute to show emphasis: á, é, í, ó, ú, but also íj (Erik van Blokland has designed a special j acute for Eames, see page 9 of this manual pdf); plus capitals. I don't know how widely used accentuated caps are in Dutch – if at all. And Dutch spelling uses the trema/dieresis, in words like 'Indië'.
They are used to signify sounds that are not covered by the Latin (language) alphabet. One example is Czech:
Tomaszewski's work is wrong about Portuguese.
There are 13 diacritics in Portuguese (áàâãçéêíóôõúü).
In Brazil, there are just 12 now as ü was cut off since 2009, when an ortographical reform took place. This reform is still not implemented in other Portuguese-speaking countries.
I believe it's also wrong about French (14) and Slovak (17).
Thanks Igor, good to know. One way or another Slovak is the leader:
(Slovak) á ä č ď é í ĺ ľ ň ó ô ŕ š ť ú ý ž (17)
(not native, used in names) + české hlásky (Czech) ě, ř, ů + nemecké hlásky (German) ö, ü (+5)
OK. Thank you very much everybody.
Be careful; Vietnamese uses the Latin alphabet as its normal writing system.
Number of accented characters in the alphabet is not the same thing as number of accented characters that occur in text.
From a type design perspective, Slovak is far and away the most demanding on spacing/kerning, due to d-caron, l-caron, and t-caron and i-acute.
Interestingly, Hungarian is not that demanding, because the hungarumlaut is "acute", so may be kerned the same as the plain letter when following T, V, W and Y.
"(i.e. not romanized Eastern languages such as Vietnamese, Thai, etc.)"
I wonder if perhaps this comment reflects a misunderstanding? The standard writing system for Vietamese is Latin with diacritics. Thai (like Korean, Japanese, and Chinese) has a standard writing system that is non-Latin, so their romanized forms are less widely used.
Though, that being said, the demand for the diacritic forms needed for transliteration of Chinese will only be rising, and not all of them are available in common character sets.
Thomas, do you mean that Pinyin actually needs more characters that these defined in Unicode or there are other transliteration systems under growing adoption?
I just meant that many common extended-Latin character sets, such as WGL-4, do not have all the characters needed for Pinyin transliteration. There are a couple of semi-obscure things in there not needed by much of anything else, unfortunately.
The Canadian orthography of Tlingit uses 17 letters with diacritics, all on vowels: ąą́ą̀ą̂áàâéèêíìîúùûÿ. The ones with ogoneks are not terribly common, though they do occur in the word «mą̀» or «mą̂» 'how'.
There are probably quite a few other minority languages which have large inventories of diacritics, although I don't know if anyone has done a survey of any kind.
Thomas: thanks for the info.
James: after you message in the topic about the font I'm developing, I did some research about languages which use Latin alphabet. Although Celeste's original question seems to be about European languages, this info may be useful.
These are the ones with more diacritics, besides Vietnamese, Tlingit and Slovak:
Apache uses 16 characters with diacritics, plus the glottal stop mark (').
Sami uses 17 if you sum up all the language variations.
Navajo uses 18 and also glottal stop mark.
Twi seems to use 18 too, but the info I found is not complete.
Kolkata is not a language but a transliteration scheme for Indic languages (actually the most widely adopted scheme). It uses 20.
"Slovak is far and away the most demanding on spacing/kerning, due to d-caron, l-caron, and t-caron and i-acute."
Yes, Nick, kerning would be much easier if we did not have these protrusions into the x-height :-) Add to that all of the i diacritics which don't have enough horizontal space to prevent overlap of neighboring diacritics and you have a "crash course" in diacritical abutment :-)
Well, Latvian uses ā, ē, ī, ū, ģ, ķ, ļ, ņ, č, š, ž and also used to be ŗ. So not more than 12. But in blackletter era (before 1930) there was a longs with a slash!
Igor, Sami is a European language.
Thanks Nick. I believe Sami is Santa Claus' mother tongue, no? :-)
Note that while Esperanto uses only six (ĉ ĝ ĥ ĵ ŝ ŭ, plus their uppercase equivalents), five of them occur in no other language.
Thanks Nick. I believe Sami is Santa Claus' mother tongue, no? :-)
Joni Mitchell has Sami heritage, but AFAIK hasn't written any songs in the language.
Funnily enough I was just watching a video of 'Čáhcceloo', ABBA's 'Waterloo' sung in Northern Sami by Sofia Jannok, quite beautifully I might add.
Gotta add that to my list of surreal cover versions that are strangely better, or at least more interesting, than the original. Thanks, Brian.
"Though, that being said, the demand for the diacritic forms needed for transliteration of Chinese will only be rising, and not all of them are available in common character sets."
There are only 4 tones to all chinese characters. ā, á, ǎ and a`. It's quite simple to design but you are right that most common characters set don't have them.
These 3 - "ā, á, ǎ" I cut and paste from wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Chinese. i wonder what font they use.) but I can't find "a`" on my keyboard, so I basically type a combination of "a" and " ` " with poor kerning.
FYI, no one read the chinese language in its romanized version. All publications are written in original Chinese alphabets. It's not just "less widely used". It is wrong to be used. To typeset an article in romanized version is almost like a sin to the Chinese language and you don't write Chinese in romanized version at all. The romanized version is only for the purpose of pronunciation, designed as a simplified version to replace the original "Han Yi Pinyi" system, which uses it's own unique set of alphabets and is very complicated. It's almost like a language by itself and I don't think it's qualified to be called diacritics at all.
Contrary to the Chinese language, the Malay Language, (Bahasa Malaysia) which is the official language of Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia (In Indonesia is called Bahasa Indonesia) is entirely written in romanized version.
The entire set of the English alphabet A-Z are sufficient to form all Malay words including it's phonatary function, so no diacritic is needed. The original Malay language was in "Jawi", a combination of arabic and Persian scripts, with additional letters added as an adaptation to local phonetics. Under the influence of Dutch and British, the language was romanized started from 17th century and today all official documents, publications and school text books uses the romanized version of the Malay language. Very few people can read the original Jawi, except in the context of Islamic literature. The original Jawi is thus facing the danger of extinction today. Most students in Malaysia today don't even know that the original language of Malay is in Jawi. It's not even being taught in the school at all.

In 1919, Primo Levi was born into a Jewish family in Turin, Italy, in 1919. Despite the anti-Semitic laws introduced to Italy by Mussolini's government, he was able to complete his degree in Chemistry at Turin University in 1941. When the Germans invaded northern Italy in 1943, Levi escaped to the mountains to join a group of anti-fascist partisans but was soon captured and eventually deported to Auschwitz. He was liberated in January 1945. After the war he resumed his career as a chemist, retiring only in 1975. His graphic account of his time in Auschwitz, If This is a Man, was published in 1947. Levi went on to write many other books, including The Wrench, If Not Now, When? and The Periodic Table, emerging not only as one of the most profound and haunting commentators on the Holocaust, but as a great writer on many twentieth-century themes, especially science. Primo Levi committed suicide on 11 April 1987.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 9 (HealthDay News) -- Breast cancer screening costs the Medicare fee-for-service program more than $1 billion annually, according to a study published online Jan. 7 in JAMA Internal Medicine.
To examine the cost to fee-for-service Medicare for breast cancer screening and work-up during 2006 to 2007, Cary P. Gross, M.D., from the Yale Comprehensive Cancer Center and Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn., and colleagues used linked Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare data for 137,274 women (aged 66 to 100 years) who had not had breast cancer. Screening-related costs were assessed at the Hospital Referral Region (HRR) level.
The researchers found that the annual costs for breast cancer screening-related procedures (screening plus work-up) were $1.08 billion, and treatment expenditures were $1.36 billion. Annual screening-related expenditures exceeded $410 million for women aged 75 years or older. Across regions, age-standardized screening-related cost per beneficiary varied more than two-fold (from $42 to $107); 65 percent of the difference in screening-related cost between HRRs in the highest and lowest quartiles of cost were attributed to digital screening mammography and computer-aided detection. Women were more likely to be diagnosed with early-stage cancer if they lived in HRRs with high screening costs (incidence rate ratio, 1.78). For initial cancer treatment cost per beneficiary there was no significant difference between the highest and lowest screening cost HRRs ($151 versus $115).
"Regional variation is substantial and driven by the use of newer and more expensive technologies; it is unclear whether higher screening expenditures are achieving better breast cancer outcomes," the authors write.
Several authors disclosed financial ties to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries.

India and all parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) are bound by its ultimate objective: the 'stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Such a level should be achieved within a time-frame sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change, to ensure that food production is not threatened and to enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner.'
The culmination of negotiations needs to be expeditiously carried out. Greenpeace has been actively participating in the negotiation process in trying to mobilize political will around an ambitious global deal on climate. From conference rooms to streets of India, Greenpeace mobilized people for an environmentally sound outcome in the run up to Copenhagen Summit last year.
The BASIC group of countries – comprising Brazil, South Africa, India and China is a recent formulation. The group emerged largely from the climate negotiation context in the run up to Copenhagen climate negotiations towards the end of 2009. The BASIC group had its first meeting in Beijing in November 2009. The four countries in that meeting discussed critical issues on coordinating their negotiation positions at Copenhagen.
At Copenhagen the BASIC group was instrumental along with the US on negotiations of the Copenhagen Accord.
After Copenhagen the BASIC group met again in New Delhi in January to discuss the post Copenhagen strategy of the four countries which emerged as one of the most powerful blocs in the climate negotiations. The countries decided to have subsequent meetings throughout the year in order to ensure strategic coordination.
Greenpeace has been actively trying to engage the BASIC ministers in trying to be a progressive bloc within the climate negotiations.
