Diamonds are a Geologist's Best Friend
Posted by The Gem Hunter at 9:44 AM Links to this post
|Released in October, 2014, this 368-page book is packed
with information on raw gemstone descriptions,
gemstone locations and lets the reader in on the secrets
used to find new colored gemstone, diamond, gold, and
unusual rocks.
In the late fall of 2014, a new book published by CreateSpace an Amazon company, describes dozens of colored gemstone, diamond, gold and other minerals and rocks. The book lets the reader in on secrets used to find raw gemstones, diamonds and gold in field.
Written for geologists, prospectors and rock hounds with some background in mineral and rock identification, the author not only provides information on the physical appearance of raw gemstones, but also describes many diamond, gold, ruby, sapphire, iolite, beryl, and other gemstone deposits giving locations using GPS coordinates and legal descriptions so that the reader can visit the deposits on Google Earth and on topographical maps. The author takes another step in describing areas likely to have undiscovered gemstones based on favorable geology – in other words, a few readers likely will find new gemstone deposits based on the information (some people already have)!
There are many cryptovolcanic structures visible on Google Earth that appear to be similar to kimberlite pipes. This is significant in that kimberlite pipes are known as potential hosts for diamond, garnet, chromian diopside and other gemstones. Nearly all of the cryptovolcanic structures identified by the author, remain unexplored in the field.
|One of several hundred cryptovolcanic structures
identified in the Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming region.
This anomaly turned out to be a kimberlite pipe and
was discovered nearly 25 years ago in Colorado by
diamond mining companies.

district in Wyoming.
It typically erupts from a feeder dike complex at depth and rises to a pipe-like structure known as a diatreme and blows out at the surface like a canon under great pressure.

How to Identify Diamonds in Nature
|14.2 carat octahedral diamond from
Kelsey Lake, Colorado (photo
courtesy of Howard Coopersmith).
In its simplest form, isometric diamond is an equal-dimensional mineral that may form six-sided crystals known to mineralogists as hexahedrons; but to prospectors, these are simply cubes. A more common habit (form) of diamond is the octahedron. To imagine what an octahedron looks like, try to visualize an Egyptian pyramid. Now imagine that pyramid surrounded by a crystal clear lake with its refection in the water. It would appear as if two pyramids were attached at the base: this would be an eight-sided octahedron.
Many octahedral crystals develop ridges on the octahedral faces resulting in crystals of trisoctahedral or hexoctahedral habit. Partial resorption of octahedral diamonds produce rounded dodecahedrons (12-sided crystals) with rhombic faces. Many dodecahedrons have ridges on the rhombic faces resulting in a 24-sided crystal known as a trishexahedron. Four-sided tetrahedral diamonds are sometimes encountered that are thought to be distorted octahedrons. Another relatively common form of diamond is a macle, or twinned diamond. Diamond macles appear as flattened triangular crystals. It should be obvious that diamonds have many crystal habits, so if you would like to know more about these, it is recommended to read Bauer (1968a) and Bruton (1978).
Most diamond surfaces will have growth trigons (equilateral triangles) and less commonly trigonal pits. And some will have hexagons (6-sided pits or raised areas. You are likely getting the idea that there are many complexities to understanding diamond crystal habits or shapes. But don't despair. If the above information snowed you, just remember there is a simple instrument known as a diamond detector sometimes called a diamond detective that you can purchase on-line for a minimal price. It will tell you if you have a diamond or not by simply touching the crystal and pressing a button. Nothing could be simpler for a prospector, rock hound and even geologist and gemologist.
Diamonds have distinct, brilliant, greasy luster that is likened to oiled glass. Often quartz is mistaken for diamond, but the dull luster of quartz is no match for the brilliant adamantine luster of diamond. Gem-quality diamonds can be translucent to transparent, colorless, green, yellow, brown, black and rarely blue or pink. Opaque and heavily included diamonds (bort) are used for industrial purposes and have little value.
Diamond is brittle, extremely hard (H=10 on the Moh's scale), with a specific gravity of 3.5, and has perfect octahedral cleavage. Even though diamond is heavier than water, it is non-wettable (hydrophobic) and will float on water given the right circumstances. Some flotation devises have been designed to extract diamond using water's surface tension. Being hydrophobic, diamonds are also grease attractive. This property is used to recover diamonds in many places around the world, where shaking tables are coated with grease to extract diamonds from concentrates run over grease tables with water. The grease, usually a mixture of Vaseline and paraffin in a 10:1 ratio, is coated on the shaking table surface.
Under ultraviolet light, many diamonds fluoresce pale blue, green yellow, and rarely red. This characteristic of diamond is used in many diamond mills, such as Sortex, which detects florescence from diamonds when they are x-rayed.
Since diamonds are extremely rare, it takes considerable effort and patience to find the gemstone. It has been estimated diamond occurs in concentrations of less than 1 part per million in commercial diamondiferous kimberlites. This means you have 999,999 parts of waste rock to run through to find that 1 part per million diamond only after you have searched and searched for the primary host rock. And not all kimberlites, lamproites and lamprophyres have diamond.
|Sloan kimberlite, Colorado. This kimberlite contains diamonds as well as
other gemstones including Cape Ruby (pyrope garnet) and chromian diopside.
Years ago, it was common knowledge in the mining industry that only about 10% of kimberlites contained diamond (Lampietti and Sutherland, 1978; Hausel, 1998). This estimate was not quite correct as many other rocks at the time had been erroneously classified as kimberlite – and over the years, there has been a lot more kimberlites found (Hausel, 2008a). So the percentage of diamondiferous verses barren kimberlites is much higher than originally thought. But at the same time, the percentage of diamondiferous verses barren lamproites and lamprophyres is very low.
The primary rocks that diamond is found in are known as peridotite and eclogite. These are rare mantle-derived rocks (nodules) that are actually sampled, or picked up by rare volcanic eruptions (i.e., kimberlite, lamproite and some lamprophyre). Thus the kimberlite, lamproite and lamprophyre magmas accidentally pick up these rare diamond-rich rocks at great depth and bring them to the earth's surface in rare old volcanoes. Many of the diamond-rich nodules survive intact after being shot out of the earth's mantle from depths of 90 to 120 miles, while others break up with their diamonds being diluted in the magma. As an example of how rich some primary host rocks are, one sample of eclogite from the Sloan kimberlite in Colorado contained an estimated 20% diamond! But kimberlite magma itself, was many times poorer in diamond than this eclogite.
No other mineral (other than gold) seems to elude correct identification by prospectors and rock hounds. This is because of a poor understanding of mineralogy and because most people tend to see things that don't exist and let their imaginations run wild. After 30 years of working with the public and identifying samples for people almost on a daily basis, I only had two people who correctly identified diamond. Many hundreds thought they had diamond, but were seeing things that were just not there.
|Iron Mountain vesicular? kimberlite, Wyoming. All of the
pores in this kimberlite may have been the result of either
abundant gas bubbles or alternatively, they could be the
impressions of minerals eroded out of the kimberlite, i.e.,
I have many stories about these prospectors and rock hounds that are both educational and interesting. One prospector called me from his truck at Jeffrey City and wanted to know what to do with all of the diamonds he had found. I was impressed: "How many did you find?" I asked.
"There are thousands all over the hill side!" He responded.
Being curious, I asked him, "How are you verifying these diamonds?"
"I just scratch the windshield on my truck, and they leave a nice scratch", he responded.
Being a wise ass, I asked, "Are you going to be able to see out your window well enough to drive home?"
He was right, diamonds will scratch windshields! Windshields are made of glass with a hardness of only 5.5 to 6 on the Moh's scale. This means many minerals will scratch windshields including pyrite, feldspar, corundum and of course quartz. One way windshield's become pitted (scratched) during dust storms is due to all of the fine sand that is blown into the windshield.
Another prospector called and said he had been diamond hunting for years and never found any. After talking awhile he mentioned his method for diamond testing: "I simply put them on an anvil and hit them with a hammer!" He talked about all of the octahedral crystals he had picked up from streams and kimberlites in the Colorado-Wyoming State Line district (where several known diamond deposits occurred) but none were diamonds because they all failed his test!
|A fairly inexpensive design for a grease table constructed by Jay Roberts at
the Wyoming Geological Survey. The light-bluish white coating is the grease
mixture. The problem with this material (particularly on a university campus)
was that we had to buy Vaseline by the case. We often received accusing
expressions from drug store employees assuming we were with a fraternity
planning for some weekend orgy.
|A giant diamond from Africa - 620 carats in weight. This diamond was actually on display for a short time at Wiseman's
Jewelry in Laramie, where I was able to photograph the extraordinary stone.
I then explained to him about the difference between hardness and mechanical brittleness and that all diamonds will break when struck by a hammer. You could hear that sound of ... well, it sounded like muffled swearing in the background as he hung up.
In another case, I received a phone call from an individual who claimed to have found the largest diamond in the world just west of Cheyenne. According to an unnamed gemologist from Cheyenne, this crystal was pronounced to be diamond. But the gemologist suggested that before the prospector put it on and purchased a large mansion on the French Riviera, he should visit my office in Laramie for a second opinion.
I gave him directions to my office. It's about an hour's drive from Cheyenne, so I was surprised when he and his three family members were knocking on my office door about 30 minutes later. They were apparently anxious to cash in their millions.
The diamond discoverer introduced himself as 'Jack' and did not give a last name, and without further hesitation, opened a locked brief case chained to his wrist and showed me the 'Star of Cheyenne'. It was fist size - about the same size as the famous Cullinan diamond. The Cullinan was by far the largest diamond ever found and weighed a whopping 3,006 carats and was recovered at the Premier Mine in South Africa. It was priceless and ended up in the Crown Jewels of England.
In the late 1970s, I had met Dr. Arnold Waters. Dr. Waters was at the time, the former Chief Geologist for DeBeers in South Africa and he told me that when the Cullinan was found, it had a distinct cleaved surface where part of the diamond had been broken in two during assent to the earth's surface in a kimberlite magma (volcano). He indicated the other half of the diamond could have been as large or larger, but was never found! Did it break off somewhere at great depth and still many miles deep in the earth? Did it make it to the surface and was missed by the sorters and ended up in the crusher where it made many little diamonds? It's something to wonder about.
The 'Star of Cheyenne' was reluctantly handed to me. As soon as I saw it, I knew what it was, but decided to have a little fun. First I showed them how to test a mineral's specific gravity by weighing the gem in water and then in air. I determined the crystal to have a specific gravity about 2.7 - too light for diamond (diamond's specific gravity at 3.5 is heavy enough it would show up with garnets and black sands in a gold pan). I also tested the hardness by taking a diamond chip and easily scratching a deep notch in the crystal. This resulted in an immediate protest by the family as they thought I was scratching their priceless diamond.
"Hold on!," I exclaimed. "If this were a diamond, I wouldn't be able to scratch it with a diamond chip, diamond has a Moh's hardness of 10 and is the hardest known natural mineral, and it is very, very difficult to scratch a diamond with another diamond". After I calmed them down and convinced them that they had an ordinary piece of rock crystal (transparent massive quartz), they left the office dejected and drove back to Cheyenne with visions of mansions and Porches fading. And I thought this was over.
The next day, I was contacted by one of our other geologists - Ray Harris (RIP) - who stopped in my office to tell me he had just received a call from a person in Cheyenne who had a probable diamond that he wanted to have verified. The person on the phone explained to him that they had already talked to me, but he and his gemologist decided that another opinion was necessary.
|The diamond detective - yep, that's me when I was VP of US Exploration for DiamonEx Ltd, Australia. During exploration in Colorado, Montana, Kansas and Wyoming, we identified hundreds of cryptovolcanic structures that look almost like impact craters with the exception that these are structurally controlled - located on a fault or similar feature. Would you like more information from the Gem Hunter? Follow me on Facebook and link to my GemHunter website.
Ray went back to his office to await the family. I laughed to myself. Ray was a very good geologist, but he had a reputation as a klutz. He was famous for running into things, breaking things, and if anything could go wrong – leave it to Ray. One of my favorite stories about Ray took place at a staff meeting. Ray was holding a cup of coffee in his left hand. I notice this and decided to catch him off guard. So I quickly asked him for the time of day. Without hesitation, Ray rotated his wrist to look at his watch pouring his coffee into his lap. We all had a great time with Ray, but during his last year, he was bullied by his supervisor until he died. I will always miss Ray – he was a good friend.
Anyway, the Cheyenne family arrived with their gem. They talked about the gemologist's opinions and their concern about my scratching the diamond. I don't know if Ray had ever seen a diamond in the rough before (few geologists had) and after examining the fist-size specimen with his hand lens, he decided to get a better look at the gemstone and carried it to his microscope in his adjacent lab with the family following him. Then it happened! He lost control of the sample and it crashed onto the floor shattering into dozens of pieces.
Ray told me the family turned white as ghosts. But Ray consoled them looking down at all of the pieces. "Well, guess it wasn't diamond – it has conchoidal fracture". The family scooped up the fragments of their precious quartz and went home, never to be seen again. When Ray told me about his event – I laughed, and pointed out to him that diamond (as well as quartz) has conchoidal fracture. Ray turned white. But don't worry - it was just a piece of quartz.

Kimberlite Pipes and Volcanoes
Would you like to see a kimberlite volcano erupt? Me too! Watch the following animation - but don't stand too close. These kimberlite eruptions are very explosive and at the point of eruption, likely have a gaseous emplacement temperature at the freezing point of water and velocities of Mach 3!!!
KIMBERLITE PIPE eruption.
Below are some photos of kimberlites, diamonds, books, etc.
|Diamondiferous kimberlite from the Sloan 2 pipe in Colorado. Note the large, rounded pyrope garnet. The Sloan kimberlites have identified diamond resources and remain mostly untouched. DiamonEx had acquired the Sloan property in 2007 under my direction, but the 2008 economic collapsed took its toll on world diamond prices, the company, and the world. The property was abandoned by DiamonEx, yet it likely still encloses hundreds of $millions in diamonds.
|Kimberlite (Devonian) and Granite (1.4 billion years old) contact exposed by bull-dozer, Schaffer
kimberlite complex, Wyoming. Note how sharp the kimberlite contact is and there is no evidence that the granite was baked.
|Buried kimberlite dike in Wyoming - the kimberlite underlies the dirt in the right half of the photo where there appears to be thicker and slightly higher vegetation.
|Diamonds in the US? From Diamonds and Mantle Source Rocks in the Wyoming Craton - by W. Dan Hausel, 1998. The diamond-shaped figures represent reported diamonds. The triangles are kimberlite localities (open triangles are diamond-bearing kimberlites), squares are high-pressure volcanics similar to kimberlite, + are lamprophyres and lamproites, the + enclosed by a diamond is diamond-bearing lamproite, the white diamond is the location of the Great 1872 Diamond Hoax site, the dots represent kimberlitic indicator mineral anomalies of note.
|Some of the high-quality gem diamonds from Kelsey Lake mine (photo courtesy of Howard Coopersmith).
|Close-up of diamond surface with some of the distinct trigons etched in the surface. Don't know how to identify diamonds? Its not all that difficult. If you do not have a background in mineralogy, all you need is the Diamond Detector - you can even make your own.
|Popular book (129 pages) on diamonds in the US - you might be able to buy this at the Wyoming Geological Survey at the University of Wyoming - although that once productive agency has become as unproductive as most government agencies.
|Book on rocks and minerals that also has brief information on diamonds and on kimberlite and lamproite. Available at Amazon
|Another popular book on gemstones (and diamonds) that the Wyoming Geological Survey forgot to reprint after the current edition was sold out.
|Gem kyanite from central Laramie Mountains (we found billions of carats of this gem - but it remains undeveloped). Some of this gem is found with iolite, ruby and sapphire in the central Laramie Mountains.
|Free pamphlet on diamonds - this may still available in Wyoming. If not, you can download a copy at the GEM HUNTER website.
|Rough diamond from Wyoming - wow, aren't these stone beautiful! Note how the gem has kind of a greasy luster. This is characteristic of diamond.
|Recent publication on geology of the Leucite Hills lamproites and possibilities of diamonds in the Leucite Hills lamproites in Wyoming (may or may not be available at the Wyoming Geological Survey). I loved working in this area. While conducting research on diamonds, we recovered diamond-stability chromites from some of the lamproites (this suggests the chromites formed under pressures and temperatures similar to that of diamond formation; thus there is a possibility for diamonds in this region).
Essentially all of the projects at the Wyoming Geological Survey were considerably underfunded and so was this one. Even though these rocks may contained diamonds, we were unable to test any material (other than a couple of rocks). Elsewhere in the world, there is a correlation between olivine and diamond content in some lamproites, so I was excited to find a couple of anthills with considerable olivine in the northeastern portion of the Leucite Hills. After looking at some olivine with a hand lens, it was apparent nearly all was gem-quality. So I took the two anthills in sample bags - and Robert Gregory processed the material (no diamonds were found), but we recovered 13,000 carats of gem-quality peridot from this sample!
|Diamonds in the world - great book, but price is too high (don't blame me, I receive no royalties for this book and the publisher ignored our protests about the price - 374 pages.
|Book (42 pages) on a little known diamond-bearing kimberlite district in Wyoming. We didn't find any diamonds (found lots and lots of diamondbacks) - nor did we test any material for diamonds. However the geochemistry of all of the rocks showed that they all originated from the diamond-stability field and a couple of diamonds were reportedly found in the early 1980s by Cominco American.
|Ruby from Granite Mountains, Wyoming. Specimen found by Eric Hausel.
|Guide to finding gems, gold, diamonds and rocks in Wyoming. If you can't find it at the Wyoming Geological Survey, you can download a copy from the GemHunters website.
There are many gemstones in Wyoming. Most people would have laughed if you told them in 1975 that Wyoming had the greatest variety of gemstones in the US. In 1975, Wyoming had known jade deposits and some agates - but that was about all.
Over three decades, the more I looked, the more I found: dozens of overlooked gemstone deposits and evidence for hundreds more which included commercial gold deposits along with more than 100 gold anomalies. It was my intention to continue this research along with educating the public to help YOU find gemstones, diamonds and gold using methods I found successful in finding a few hundred mineral deposits.
But morally and ethically, I could no longer work for the Geological Survey or the State of Wyoming, so I moved on. Since 2006, there have been no discoveries of new metal or gemstone deposits.

|Sabres fire coach Lindy Ruff after 6-10-1 start
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 20 February 2013 10:37
The announcement was made on the team's Twitter account and confirmed by Sabres spokesman Michael Gilbert on Wednesday. Ruff was relieved of his duties shortly after the team held a 90-minute practice, and a day after the Sabres were booed several times by their home fans during a 2-1 loss to the Winnipeg Jets.
The Sabres (6-10-1) have gone 4-10-1 since opening the season winning their first two games.
With a 532-400-151 record, Ruff was the team's winningest coach.

I worked at Blount InternationalPros
Blount International has a good track record with employees instilling longevity and loyalty. There were many people who were 20+ years and retired and as many 20+ years and still working.Cons
Blount International keeps employees and tries to grow them in their knowledge of company key metrics. However some people learn how to just get buy and sort of float through the system without giving 100%Advice to ManagementAdvice
Blount is trying to buy certain competitors but they are in a commodities business. The bottom dollar will win most of the time. They need to innovate something spectacular and relative to their current customer base.RecommendsApproves of CEO

Leading British lawmakers urged the European Union on Thursday to remove preferential trade tariffs from Sri Lanka if it fails to address human rights concerns. "Our government must negotiate with EU partners to remove trade concessions from Sri Lanka if the government of Sri Lanka continues to deny the U.N. investigating team access into the country," Richard Ottaway, a Conservative lawmaker and chairman of parliament's foreign affairs committee, said in a statement accompanying a report on the government's work on human rights.

Although the president still has wide public support, internal tensions within the ruling party have seen backing for his leadership decline. There have also been allegations President Rajapaksa has used his position to give friends and family members jobs in high-ranking government and bureaucratic institutions. Sirisena is a person who can rally votes not only from the opposition but also from segments within the ruling coalition. He has a broad partnership with governmental leaders.Among the voters, the former health minister is viewed as an honest guy and is considered a big name - many voters already know who he is and what he has done. He's a type of candidate that can rally voters and gain support. [ full story | comments
Defense chiefs of the South and Southeast Asian Nations (SASEAN) will gather in Sri Lanka's capital city of Colombo on Thursday to discuss regional peace and security at a two-day conference, a statement said.Defense chiefs of the eight SAARC and 10 ASEAN member nations will attend the event, and high ranking defense officials from China and Russia are also expected to participate as observers. Sri Lanka over the past few years has stepped up dialogues with regional parties with yearly conferences that aim at improving security, especially after the forces were instrumental in ending a three decade war with the Liberation Tamil Tigers of Eelam (LTTE) in 2009.

The United Nations Special Rapporteur on minority issues Rita Izsak criticised Sri Lankan Buddhist organisation Bodu Bala Sena (BBS) in a report released ahead of the seventh session of the Forum on Minority Issues, which is currently underway in Geneva.

Sri Lanka's elections chief and pro-democracy activists yesterday urged police to stem a spate of campaign-related violence that has flared since President Mahinda Rajapakse declared his re-election bid."I have asked police about these incidents, I have told them to take action against offenders," Deshapriya said. "I seek the cooperation of political parties to ensure a trouble-free election. "It is also the responsibility of candidates to restraint their supporters." Deshapriya said he was hoping to invite Commonwealth, European and Asian observers to monitor the election campaign. [ full story | comments
A sea change is occurring in Sri Lanka's strategic orientation. Recent developments suggest that Sri Lanka is becoming China's new best friend and security partner in the eastern Indian Ocean. This would represent a major change in Sri Lanka's foreign policy and could have significant consequences for regional security.How will India respond to these developments? Delhi has expressed anger at these visits in the strongest terms and has told the Rajapaska government that they are 'unacceptable to India'. But despite strong trade and defence links, including considerable training for Sri Lanka's military, India's options are relatively limited. [ full story | comments
An odd thing has happened in Tamil Nadu politics. The Narendra Modi intervention, which got Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse to free five fishermen sentenced to death in a drug trafficking case, has forced all Tamil political parties on the backfoot. While many of them have been trying to claim credit for something they could never have done themselves, Modi is getting back-handed praise for quietly getting them released. He has effectively shown them up for what they are: windbags who are part of the problem, not the solution, to the issue of Sri Lankan Tamils. [ full story | comments
MDMK leader Vaiko on Wednesday celebrated the 60th birth anniversary of the slain Tamil Tigers leader Velupillai Prabhakaran. Vaiko urged people to burst crackers and offer special prayers to mark the occasion. "The celebrations should take place wherever Tamils live around the world," he said in a statement. It should "echo the cause of Tamil Eelam", he said. Prabhakaran was born into a middle class family in the coastal town of Velvettiturai in Jaffna peninsula on the northern tip of Sri Lanka.

No, we are not completely abolishing the presidency. The 19th Amendment is such that in a situation where national security, integrity or unity is threatened, the President does have some responsibility and the power to take action...."We will not let anyone take Mahinda Rajapaksa to international war crimes courts or let any international forces harm him. We will defend him, stand by him and support him." "I was the one who approached Mr. Sirisena and suggested to Mr. Ranil Wickremasinghe that Mr. Sirisena would be the suitable candidate to lead the common opposition. " [ full story | comments
The Sri Lankan government is anything but angelic. Mahinda Rajapaksa has been accused of running a mafia state since his victory in the civil war, imprisoning political rivals and ensuring transactions run through his office. In many ways, he might be just another Assad, albeit with less publicity. Still, the lesson from the Sri Lankan Civil War is that rushing in to arm militias or throwing boots on the ground is not the best way to shore up a region, but the quickest and most effective route to chaos.

"I am inviting my former colleagues and all parties represented in the current parliament to join a national government," Sirisena said after his first visit to the opposition United National Party (UNP) headquarters in the capital. Sirisena said he wanted to bring about a peaceful constitutional revolution, citing India's independence icon Mahatma Gandhi and South Africa's anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela as his inspirations."I am a poor farmer's son, I am not rich... but I am an admirer of both Gandhi and Mandela and will follow their example in leading the country to establish a new political culture," he said.

Sri Lanka's Catholic Church has urged the government not to use a forthcoming visit by Pope Francis to help its re-election campaign after media reported posters had appeared depicting the pontiff blessing President Mahinda Rajapaksa."It has been brought to our notice that the political posters and cut-outs with the picture of the Holy Father have appeared in some places in the country," the committee of the Sri Lankan Catholic Church that is preparing for the papal visit said in a statement. "We earnestly request respective authorities and persons to remove those political posters and cut-outs immediately and urge all the political groups to refrain from using either the Holy Father or His visit to Sri Lanka for the political campaign of the presidential election."

The prevailing weather conditions of last winter will be more or less the same across the country this winter, according to the Weather Network's chief meteorologist Chris Scott. For Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Manitoba, the winter outlook calls for below-average temperatures and near-normal precipitation for most regions. Western Saskatchewan, Alberta and the other Atlantic provinces should brace for wildly swinging temperatures that average out to near seasonal norms, he said. In British Columbia and the North, 2013 winter weather patterns are expected to repeat, which means those regions can expect warmer than normal conditions for the next few months.

Sri Lanka on Tuesday said it will invite foreign monitors to witness the presidential election in January. Election Commissioner Mahinda Deshapriya said he would, however, not invite U.N. election monitors, Xinhua reported. He told reporters that U.N. monitors play a role only if an election is being held for the first time or if there were serious concerns over the electoral process. Mr. Dishapriya said that usually election monitors from Asia, the European Union and the Commonwealth were invited to see a major election. The January 8 election will be mainly a contest between President Mahinda Rajapaksa and his former Minister Maithripala Sirisena. [ full story | comments
An election monitoring body and Catholic leaders in Sri Lanka have condemned the use of Pope Francis' image on campaign posters featuring President Mahinda Rajapaksa and called for their removal from public spaces. "The president has already used the Pope's image for his election campaign and there are posters in public places in Colombo," said Rohana Hettiarachchi, executive director of the People's Action for Free and Fair Elections (PAFFREL). The posters, which feature the pope and Rajapaksa, have been placed in multiple locations around Colombo since last week, though it is not known who is responsible for distributing them.

Wedding Car Trivia:TOASTThe term originates from the sixteenth century. At that time a small piece of bread would be placed in a goblet of wine. The goblet would be passed from guest to guest until it reached the person being honored who would drain the goblet and eat the morsel of bread in the bottom. This tradition is practiced at weddings today - usually in the form of one or more champagne "toasts". The best man has the honor of giving the first toast. Usually the bride and groom remain seated for the toasts while all the guests are usually standing to honor them. The couple may then make a few remarks thanking their families, wedding party members, and guests. They may also "toast" each other or share a "toast" together. Often special glass or silver goblets are used by the bride and groom.

As a veterinarian, I see my share of rescues, and I have to praise the efforts of Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League. I feel lacking in calling what they do efforts, when in fact it's all success! The volunteers within this organization perform a magnificent service to their danes and to all the families they adopt their rescues to. My first encounter with Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League was about 5 years ago when I was looking to adopt a dane. I encountered their process that potential adoptees go through. It is rigorous, yet necessary. Great danes are giants, gentle as they may be, they are not the right pet for every home. It's a solid process. Their foster system is great and the volunteer foster parents perform such a wonderful service for the danes themselves as well as their future families. They give these rescues the love and security that they may have never received before. In these homes they can develop both physically and psychologically to achieve their full potential and personality. It takes so much time and effort. I got my 2nd dane through a rescue effort directly. The volunteers went above and beyond normal compassion in this case. Driving hours to get this puppy from the home. Then driving hours back to bring the puppy directly to me to evaluate medically. This pup was dying, screaming in severe pain with systemic bone disease, malnutrition to a severe extent and pneumonia. This pup is named George, I kept him and he is almost 5 years old! It was a long haul for him with many setbacks along the way and he never complained once. He is the sweetest soul I could ever imagine. He's my buddy. I can truly say If it weren't for the efforts (successes) of the volunteers, George would not have lived to see his 5th month of life, never mind his 5th year. I recommend Mid-Atlantice Great Dane Rescue League all the time to all my friends, colleagues, and clients who are looking for a rescue dog and love danes as much as I do. I just cannot say enough about this organization. Andrea Randazzo, DVM

My 1st exposure to MAGDRL was at local events. I adopted my 1st Dane, Torre, when the time was right and quickly became a volunteer. The professionalism and passion of our volunteers never ceases to amaze me. I am proud to be part of this great organization that has been saving Great Danes for 33 years!

major disappointment . very uncomfortable stayPosted Jun 6, 2014
Pros: location
Cons: every thing. air conditioners need to be fixed , mattresses need to change and bedcovers need to be washed regularly
Location: many things are near by
we stayed for 2 nights. this was our worst traveling experience in our 30+ years of extensive traveling . the air conditioners do not work if you open the windows, there is no air flow. as the windows are facing an air well. the temperature outside was a pleasant 55 while in room was 80 + beds are uncomfortable and in serious need of mattress replacement. the bed covers were dirty and liekly not washed in some time in order to reach the elevator you have to first climb 5 stairs from street to lobby then another 6-7 steps to the elevator, which takes you up to in between floors, so you have to walk another 5-6 stairs to get to your room

Nice locationPosted Sep 27, 2013
Pros: Location
I have been to Granada for about 5 nights. Though I read many disappointing reviews about the hotel but I did not have many other options as I was late in reservation and so. Anyway, I can say that Casablanca is not that bad as most of comments say. The hotel is in the centre of Granada, easily reached..I loved that. It is about 5 min walk to Granada cathedral, 10-15 min from Alhambra. It is located very close to the shopping streets and grand via de colon. Just next to the hotel there are more than 1cafe you can have your breakfast there. About the elevator that most ppl made comments about I found it perfect, it is new, safe with no step level from the floor as mentioned by others. May be they have fixed this Pbm. About rooms, cleanliness come on it is 2 stars hotel I can not expect more than I got just a good safe place to have your night. The only Pbm I found was the noise of people when they r back at night, as rooms are v close. Overall it was good I enjoyed my stay at Casablanca.

FRISCO — Fort Worth Castleberry couldn't hold on once Frisco Independence found its passing game in a 35-8 loss at Toyota Stadium on Thursday night.The win was the first for Independence, which opened this year.Castleberry (0-2) took a 2-0 lead when the Knights sailed a snap over the punter and out of the back of the end zone for a safety. The lead would last just into the second quarter when Independence running back Brandon Williams powered an 11-yard run into the end zone. Independence (1-1) continued its second quarter attack when Myles Russell scored from the 2, leading to a 14-2 halftime advantage.Independence gained steam in the third quarter, and posted its third touchdown of the game on a trick play.Wide receiver Kolbre Smith took a reverse pitch running to his right and passed to a wide open Maxwell Hudson. The Lions were able to mount one quality drive spanning from the third quarter into the fourth that ended after 15 plays with a 2-yard touchdown run by Pablo Ramos. The try for two points was no good, but the touchdown marked Castleberry's first offensive points of the season. Independence finished the night's scoring with TD passes of 66 and 64 yards.

Book Description:
In this remarkable memoir, President Obama's Kenyan half-brother, twenty-seven-year-old George Obama, describes his unique struggles with family, tribe, inheritance, and redemption and the seminal influence his brother had on his own future. The elusive father that both brothers shared died when George was only six months old. George was raised by his mother and stepfather, but after they separated, he drifted into gangs and petty crime. Restless, willful, and troubled, he lost himself in Nairobi s vast Mathare ghetto. After being framed for an armed robbery he did not commit and spending time in jail, he represented himself at his trial and won the case. Vowing to turn his life around, he finished his education and set up the George Hussein Obama Homeland Foundation to help street youths overcome the miseries surrounding them. 'This is a true story. It happened to me between the year of my birth and the present day. A very few of the names in this book have been changed, and I have done so in order to protect those individuals. Kenya is at times a lawless and dangerous place, especially in the ghetto. When you read my story you will understand why such changes may have been necessary.'--author's note from the book.

This is a beautiful location, but unfortunately the interior conditions do not meet modern standards for short term occupation. The access roads are heavily overgrown with both bushes and tree limbs and badly scratched both sides of our fifth wheel just getting in. Most sites are occupied by seasonal trailers and it was impossible to back around into several others. The site we finally used had a great view, but needed blocks and a lot of work for leveling. Other, more accessible, campgrounds are available in the Oneida area. Sorry, we won't stay here again. We camped at Cedar Valley Campsites in a Fifth Wheel.

The blaze was contained to the porch on the one-and-a-half story home. No injuries were reported.

Researchers recover credit card info from a factory reset Xbox 360
Resetting your Xbox 360 to factory settings before selling it or trading it in may not be enough to prevent your personal information from falling into the wrong hands. Researchers have determined that credit card information can be recovered from used Xbox 360 consoles despite those consoles having been reset to factory settings.
Dr. Ashley Podhradsky, Dr. Rob D'Ovidio, and Cindy Casey all study digital forensics at Drexel. Casey went out and purchased a used Xbox 360 and was able to pull an alarming amount of information off the hard drive with very simple tools.
The used Xbox purchased by the researchers was bought directly from Microsoft and had been reset to factory default settings. A basic modding tool was used to gain access to files on the hard drive. With a little bit of additional work the full credit card information previously stored on the console could be extracted. In addition to the credit card number itself, user names, user profiles, and a city could also be extracted.
Dr. Ashley Podhradsky spoke with Kotaku about the process saying,
"Microsoft does a great job of protecting their proprietary information. But they don't do a great job of protecting the user's data."
Podhradsky also commented that for seasoned hackers the information may be accessed even more quickly than it could be done by the group of researchers.
"A lot of them already know how to do all this," she said. "Anyone can freely download a lot of this software, essentially pick up a discarded game console, and have someone's identity."
So how can you protect yourself if you want to trade in your Xbox? Podhradsky recommends removing the hard drive from the device, attaching it to a computer, and running a utility like Darik's Boot & Nuke to completely wipe out all the data on the drive.
"I think Microsoft has a longstanding pattern of this," Podhradsky said. "When you go and reformat your computer, like a Windows system, it tells you that all of your data will be erased. In actuality that's not accurate—the data is still available… so when Microsoft tells you that you're resetting something, it's not accurate."
Between this and the ridiculous Sony PlayStation Network hacks that happened last year I am hesitant to link a credit card to any of my game consoles. I would rather just go out and purchase prepaid points cards for everything. Have any of you traded in an Xbox 360? Are you concerned about your credit card information being pulled off the device?
