Dry summer ahead for Lake Peachtree
The Peachtree City Council learned Thursday that the structural problems with the Lake Peachtree spillway extend further than the human eye can see.
That's why engineers lowered a special high-definition camera under the surface to "get to the bottom" of the problem.
Down below is a cavern-like environment that has been created by erosion, endangering the spillway to the point where the lake has to remain low until the structure can be repaired or replaced.
Unfortunately, the lake is likely to remain that way through at least the summer if not considerably longer.
There is no concrete start date for the repairs at this point, as county officials can't proceed with a design until they get a blessing from the state. The Georgia Safe Dams program is evaluating the potential hazard to downstream properties if the dam or spillway were to fail.
That decision, expected by the end of this month at the earliest, is crucial because it will play a factor in the extent of the repairs, according to Fayette County Administrator Steve Rapson.
If the state classifies the lake, dam and spillway as one that could "endanger human life downstream" if breached, the county may appeal that decision due to the potential significant increase in repair costs ... thus further delaying the spillway repair and eventual refilling of the lake.
While the county has been working behind the scenes, including the modeling of what could happen if a dam breach occurred — the city council has decided to hire a special attorney to handle the matter on its behalf as council continues to get an earful from residents displeased with the unsightly lake bed, a far cry from the lake's usual pastoral charm.
Council appointed attorney Andrew Welch of McDonough, who gave a brief presentation at Thursday's council meeting. At his recommendation, council voted unanimously to send a letter to the county outlining the city's expectation that the lake be refilled as soon as possible.
Councilman Eric Imker expressed frustration that the issue has dragged on so long, arguing that the county should be drawing up plans for the more expensive repairs right away without waiting to see what EPD's decision will be. Imker said he didn't care about the cost, but he is also presuming that the county water system will foot the entire bill, which at this point remains to be seen — and is likely another reason council decided to hire an attorney for this particular issue.
Under a 1966 agreement updated in 1985, the county is required to maintain the dam and spillway through the year 2034 since it is using the lake as a water reservoir. However, Rapson has indicated the county will evaluate whether it even needs to pull water from the lake anymore.
It's not immediately clear whether shutting off the spigot would absolve the county of its spillway and dam repair responsibility.
The Citizen learned this week that the county is looking to speed up the lake dredging process so it can be done while the lake level is low, particularly since there is no answer likely on the spillway repair process for at least another month.
By the end of July, the county expects to have its emergency action plan for the repairs, assuming there are no further delays.
The mostly dry yet mucky lakebed has been a sore sight for residents' eyes far longer than anticipated when it was drained in January for what was thought to be just two months. The muck has also been a source of amusement for some, as children have played in the dirt and adults have driven their vehicles on the lake bed, only to get stuck in the mud, receiving an obligatory citation from the police department for improper use of the lake.
The underground video camera feed from beneath the spillway, played for the city council Thursday night, showed a cavern-like environment. The spillway is designed to help prevent a potential dam breach which would cause significant flooding downstream.
Because that void increased the potential for the spillway to fail, the county has kept the lake level low while the matter is investigated, city Community Services Director Jon Rorie said.
The county uses the lake as a source of raw drinking water through an agreement with the city, as the city owns the lake.
The county is waiting to hear back from state regulators as to whether the lake's dam and spillway are rated as a "category 1" or "category 2" hazard. If determined to be a category 1 rating, the repairs are expected to be far more expensive than if the lake is deemed a category 2 by the state.
I can almost smell it in the air, can't you? No, not the lake bed, but the future "Save Lake Peachtree!" Vote "Yes" on the next SPLOST election campaign.
I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There is nothing useless about the wetlands in and around this county. We are blessed to have them as this county grows.
I remember when I took my first stroll down that boardwalk behind the ampitheater about 20 years ago. I thought I had entered a new world. Guess I had led a citified life till then and will never forget the tiny details of what was there and hopefully will be there for years to come. See some of the work being done:
and their Facebook page (scroll down to the section on ticks this year and then below that see the 5 foot black rat snake)
I guess we differ in our perception of what is useless. Although, if I had run into that snake, I might be singing a different tune here.
Gotta face the truth - we've got a flooded swamp where a lake should be..
Skimming the crust off sediment every few years in a too shallow basin is a waste of taxpayer money. Now that a spillway erosion problem has brought attention from all the authories necessary to do something???, it is a perfect time to have county and city cooperation display leadership in doing whatever it takes to make things right with Lake Peachtree.
Bring in the heavy earth moving gear and cut out 10 to 20 feet of the basin floor. Spread that soil downstream to fill in 10 to 15 of our thousands of acres of precious wetlands to create a proper Lake Peachtree as the centerpiece of this well palnned community, and some beautiful parkland at the same time...
twice. Your point is so taken. Convinced me with the second one. Of course, convinced of what, I will just say wow.
You can't simply take the spoils from the lake bed and place it elsewhere, especially planned wetlands.
The wetlands actually help slow rainwater runoff. If we filled the wetlands, the rainwater has to go someplace else. Where would that be?
Fully agree that our wetlands are both useful,.. AND beautiful examples of unspoiled nature.
Please consider that we have several thousand acres of precious wetlands preserved within the borders of our well planned city.
That is why I can justify sacrificing 10 to 20 acres(i.e., less than 1%), to create both a proper lake with 10+ times the reservoir capacity AND some beautiful parkland at the same time.
Makes no sense to continue spending taxpayer money to patch both the dam and the sediment problem simply to continue the farce of having a centerpiece lake. Everybody can clearly see that what we actually have is a flooded swamp. An expensive to maintain flooded swamp. There is a reason Lake Peachtree power boating privileges are restriced to redidents living along the West bank. That is where Line Creek flowed before the dam was put in place. Before that the West bank of Lake Peachtree was the West bank of Line Creek. Over time that creek carved out a narrow channel in what is mostly the shallow flooded swamp we see exposed today.
I'm not saying anything other than lets make it right,...and tossing out my best idea for doing that. Carpe Diem,..(seize the moment)while money has to be spent and all the right folks are focused on the issue. All it would take is one responsible advocate to call for a study of doing the RIGHT thing, whatever that might be.
Skimming the crust off sediment every few years in a too shallow basin is a waste of money. The spillway erosion problem has brought attention from all the authories necessary to do something. Perfect time to have county and city cooperation do what it takes to make things right with Lake Peachtree.
Bring in the heavy earth moving gear and take out 10 to 20 feet of the basin floor. Spread that soil downstream to fill in the useless marshland behind The Fred. Create a proper Lake Peachtree as the centerpiece of this well palnned community, and some beautiful parkland at the same time...
I could be wrong here. That happened once before. LOL But I think the land that you're referring to behind the Fred is designated wetlands and can't just be filled in without replacing it with an equal amount of wetland somewhere else.
Hi G35,
Understand the need to offset any encroachment of designated wetland acerage. Took notice of how that is done while reviewing the final expense report for Lake Mac.
Fayette County paid more for wetland credits to offset the footprint of that projecte than it cost to build it. Many millions of our dollars.
BTW - Maybe we could claim we are replacing 10 to 20 acres of that lake bottom wetland with the new parkland below a deeper Lake Peachtree. Be inreresting to see how the feds prove THAT land is not wet!!!
Just joshing - you are correct. We would have to go back to wetlands credit trading table and buy a few more.
Well, I could take a couple of loads to fill in the sink hole in my back yard where the debris buried by the good ol' builders is now disintegrating.
The city needs to go on the offensive here and ask the county to provide the records for each dam inspection since the agreement was signed. Bet the county won't find anything from the old water dept director (whose still on the payroll).
While I understand that dam classifications change, how could no one in the county or city not know what classification the dam falls under? If the county was inspecting the dam and making repairs over the years, they had to know what specifications they were trying to meet otherwise, what were they doing?
is well aware of the lack of management and oversight by the former leadership at the county level. As we all are. From the water director to the county administrator to the commissioners, there has been a complete overhaul all the way around. It has been well documented the shoddy work and practices that have gotten this county to where it was until about a year ago. The current BOC (water system) has now contracted with 2 or 3 firms to get the information needed, they are working with state agencies necessary to get the classification and have a specific, defined timetable to proceed if the state will approve the plans based on what they decide is needed. The mayor, city engineer and city manager have been informed on a regular basis on all of this.
Have you been by it in the last few days since the rains? It actually doesn't look half bad from what I saw.
That the current BOC is only picking up the pieces left from poor management from the past. Perhaps Mr. Brown can designate Mr. Barlow as the liaison. Make him go thru all the past water dept records to see what you know who did regarding past inspections.
Based on the county administrators first volley, I think it would be wise to gather all the info as ammunition. Just in case.
It's still kind of sad that we have to go to the state for them to tell us what class of dam we have, even if they update the ratings from time to time.
I did view the lake as I meandered to Home Depot on Sat. along Hwy 54. Guess I missed spotting the water.
"management". Check out the 370K item on BOC agenda coming in for design services for capital improvements at the Crosstown Treatment plant. Money is already there from that MIEX fiasco before the stinky water came about. This is very much a work in progress and is being addressed.
What else does the state have to do but create classes and rules and guidelines to follow? Regulate everything that hasn't already been regulated, I guess. If not, the feds will do it.
I was at Battery Park tonight. There were multiple golf carts, the parking lot was almost full. Skateboarders, families playing on the playground, and about 8 new duck families swimming around. The usual assortment of walkers, runners and doggies going by. 2 kids on kayaks in the inlet pond on the other side of the path bridge there, too. Did not hear one person complain or even talk about the lake. Too busy recreating and enjoying the warm evening. The sun still seemed to know where to set at dusk, even with the lowered pool of water. The green grass has come in quite nicely for now. I think we can all survive this summer without the full lake, if it comes to that.
I don't know what you mean by first volley and ammunition. Just in case what? Please share, mon frere.
When the county administrator spoke about the possibility of shuttling the lake as a water source, I take it as a first volley.
He's not stupid. He's setting something in motion. Just don't know what that is.
is why a volley? Quit playing games and do the job. Arguing over this stuff while the city and county are going to hell in a hand-basket. These people are so far behind the curve that if they owned a gas station they would still have employees who pumped gas for their customers with a sign NO Checks Cash Only. We can't even get a SPLOST passed while the affluent counties (the ones where home values are high, art-centers, nice parks, etc)are passing their SPLOST by 3 to 1 . Absolutely frustrating when you know we could be so much more.
What was the point of the county manager stating in last weeks article that the county may not need to use Lake Peachtree as a water source any more?
Is the county planning to shut the tap? He didn't say this to hear himself talk, did he?
Is that not a topic of discussion that would be timely right now? Why not bring it up as a discussion? Isn't that his job to look at options best for the county and the water system? I would say he was not fulfilling his role if he did not bring it up for discussion. You can debate how he did it any way you want. This county administration is open and engaged. For this city council and management to take that as a legal threat says more about their lack of skill in fulfilling their roles. The days of behind the scenes good old boy negotiating are over, folks. I expect the citizens to be informed as to what the management and elected are thinking if you are an elected or hired to serve us. It is your duty to inform us before you take steps to hire an attorney without informing the taxpayers the reason for doing it. It also speaks to your inability to work with the county to resolve an issue. Who has heard the justification yet from either the city manager or mayor or council for the need for any attorney to be hired on this issue?
I have no problem with this discussion.
But it should not have made the papers, YET. The timing made it appear that the county was throwing a dart against the wall to see the reaction. I don't want to say it was a threat, but it didn't sit well with many people, including myself. Like, if we don't need it, its your problem.
This discussion should have started with a conversation between county and city managers and left out of the public until they know what the heck they are doing with the dam.
I don't remember reading that Lake McIntosh was a replacement source, but rather a new source for growth. If the county doesn't need the lake as a water source and they can prove that this is more of a burden than having belts and suspenders, then lets have the discussion. But the dam needs to be brought up to code.
The timing was poor.
is the adult, mature way of addressing a potential issue. I mean, look at us. It also shows the actual leadership of those voted in to office to do exactly that, lead. The Citizen article was published on Wed., May 28th. On Thursday, June 5th, 7 days later, an attorney was already hired and giving legal counsel. Where is the communication record between city and county in those 7 (or 5 working) days to prove the discussion had already demanded the hiring of an attorney at our expense?
Prove it, mayor and council. Show us the proof of need.
My question there would be has our city manager talked with him about it? Isn't that a function of our city manager, to communicate with the county and other governments about matters that affect this city?
I want to tread lightly here because I'm not 100% sure I have been able to acquire all the facts.
Let's just ask Mr. Brown; Mr. Brown is it true that since there will be cost (approx. 2MM plus)to repair the damn and fill the lake that you are holding two positions? 1). the lake is no longer needed as water for the county now that we have lake McIntosh therefore it does not need to be fixed and refilled and 2). If PTC wants the damn fixed and the lake filled it is PTC problem not the county. Is this true?
Based on the information I've been given I would assume this to be the facts. If this is the case, I'm confused, since about 40% of the entire county live in PTC why doesn't the county just obtain a 20 year bond repair the damn and fill in the lake and move on. Stop wasting the taxpayers time and money on attorneys and senseless back and forth. You politicians waste more time on the back-and-forth than just doing what is right, and doing what needs to be done. And, it always cost more in the long-run. A perfect example would be the Target center in Kedron. If the city (under your watch)would have done what the developer proposed the center we be much nicer than it is. Highway 54 west is another example of government getting in the way. On the Hwy 54 west development we've gone from a gated community to tract homes (metaphor) and we've lost 8 years of tax revenue for the privilege. This is simply why politicians make very poor business owners and good business owners can't get elected as politicians.
Steve....there is a 50 year contract between the county and the city in reference to Lake Peachtree. Please do what is right, pay for the damn to be fixed, and refill the lake. Otherwise you will have an eye-sore that will turn into wetlands and devalue all homes in Peachtree City therefore collecting less tax-dollars over time. This is called cause -and-effect. Since district voting you are to represent the citizens of PTC as well.
Remember a good 40% of the cost to fix the damn and refill the lake will be from the PTC tax-payers anyway. Let's just do it and move on. Politicians worry about everything that's wrong instead of creating and building a better future, a better tomorrow. I would encourage the politicians and the citizens to quit living 20 years behind schedule. Why is it that all the other elite counties have so much more than us and their quality of life is so much better? And the value of their homes are higher. Our county and our city is looking older and more run down by the day. Let's not argue over stupid stuff...fix it and move on to pro-active ideas that create quality and value.
Steve, tell me if I am wrong on the information I have regarding the lake.
beware of that da*** spell check
beware of that da*** spell check
According to the city council and county BOC meeting minutes, they don't know what classification the dam falls under. If its class "A" for example, they can repair it this way. If its a "B" it gets fixed another way.
Can't imagine how they performed maintenance on the thing for years without knowing what standards they had to maintain.
Can you imagine a business owner not testing their fire alarm or certifying fire extinguishers every year?
You hit the nail on the head. Your statement, "I am not 100% sure I have been able to acquire all the facts."
That is true at the county and at the city. The facts are not there yet. The state and the engineers have not come back with the information to make any decisions yet. And yet, the city has hired a second attorney for this now. Why? No answer. No explanation. Have you asked the city why the need for this expense? Nowhere has anyone mentioned the county has, in your words, wasted taxpayers time and money on attorneys and senseless back and forth. There is nothing to decide yet, since the facts are not available to make decisions. And yet, here we have, for the second time with these 3, an attorney hired for what?
at the County level...let's see...have any of them ever changed positions repeatedly on issues?
The County is under agreement to maintain the dam/spillway..clearly they have not...I say hold their feet to the fire. And sometimes, unfortunately, it takes a good Attorney to do that. Especially if they haven't shown the ability to do it in the past.
To do what? There is nothing decided yet since the facts are not in yet. Do you know for a fact that they have not maintained the spillway? When and how were those cracks created? Has the city asked to see the records? Has the city been informed of what the county is doing? Does it take the expense of a second attorney to ask questions and have discussions and come to an agreement on how to proceed? Really, if you think the city is doing this for a "trust" issue, you do not have all the facts.
Steve Brown and Steve Rapson both live in Peachtree City. Both have worked for this city as elected and staff. This is the first time ever this city has the experience and knowledge at county level combined to work together to resolve issues with any city council. Instead this mayor and council go and hire a second attorney to get in the middle of it. Great move, yes, just so needed right now. How much are you willing to pay for this attorney? Was the last one they hired worth it?
It's fairly obvious it hasn't had anything done to it in years.
The County is clearly responsible for its upkeep per the agreement that the City has posted.
I don't claim to know everything, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out the County appears to have dropped the ball.
We will see where this goes.
Not trying to argue with anyone on this, but I can see why the City Council could have some doubt.
discussing, that's all.
Are you aware of how many discussions have taken place over this between staff? Or, how many have taken place over this between city elected and county elected? I am not aware. I would expect to be made aware of those facts before any decision is made to get legal counsel hired. Is that asking too much of elected here? The silence is deafening from the mayor and council and city management. Where this goes now, is in our tax or debt burden. From every angle possible. City, county, and now legal, without explanation. I find the last one unacceptable to this point.
Who at the city is responsible to see that the county lives up to the contract by inspecting and maintaining the dam for the past 20+ years? I would think there would have been a yearly inspection at minimum and a much more detailed inspection every 5 years.
Or does the city sign contracts and just hope others follow it?
Records baby, records. Do you think the ole former water director has any?
What difference at this point does it make? It has been well documented in so many ways already the deficiencies of the county (water) leadership in the past. It is also true that laws and regulations have changed drastically over the last almost 50 years. Who has the records of how the dam was built? My guess, a bunch of boulders and fill dirt and some cement were thrown together to create a mound and the cement slab was laid on top to form the so called dam. Go down Kedron Drive or over to Rockspray pond and compare the dam requirements now to what see a perfect example of how government has changed the rules over the years.
A new set of laws are in place, regulations, too. The county has hired professionals to give options on what needs to be done. One of those options should include a discussion of any future needs of Lake Peachtree as a water source. If not now, when? Where is the perceived threat to the city in any of this that requires the expense of an additional attorney at this point? I have not heard it. Has anyone?
in many areas....
I know the Lake Spivey Dam/Spillway in Jonesboro was redone a few years back..might be interesting to look that up and see the costs involved...Private vs Govt, but I know it was redone..
Bad news for lake Peachtree. Good news for lake Kedron

Apple analyst: fruity firm set to shift 75 million iPhones
Apple is set to flog some 75 million units of the new iPhone 6 by the end of the year, an analyst with a pessimism bypass has claimed. Amit Daryanani of RBC Capital Markets has clearly taken every colour of the Cupertino happy pill, because a leaked briefing sees him suggesting that Apple will break all its records this year. …
So how much apple stock do RBC Capital Markets have?
Pump and dump for the big boys? All legal of course.
Re: leaked?
Probably true. But still likely to be another record launch quarter for Apple.
Is that irony bypass making Jasper feel a bit *peaky* I wonder ?
Re: leaked?
Reporter reports on rumours and predictions while complaining about hype? Yep, irony bypass fully functional
Sheep of the world, flock to your Apple store
So no specification yet, certainly will have little if anything radical.
And yet people will want to buy it simply because it's the latest Apple product.
Makes you worried for the state of modern civilization.
Re: Sheep of the world, flock to your Apple store
"Makes you worried for the state of modern civilization."
Too late for that. What with Farcebook...and the rest of the similar social networking crap..."civilization" is on an irreversible downward spiral.

That's Numberwang!

Re: 75 million
75 million --- new phones that still can't swipe.
Tap-tap-tap, fanbois...
Re: 75 million
Best practice usually dictates it is best to know what you are talking about before taking the piss Andy.
Re: 75 million
Eh - are they finally getting the swipe this year? Too bad - it was a good troll for such a long time.
75 million is 15% of total number of iPhones
There are about 500 million iPhones out there already, so hundreds of millions of users could be looking to replace old models. I had to switch to Android to get a decent size screen, so that alone could the feature that a lot of people have been waiting for...
Got to agree with the "why oh why phone"
I've got to agree with the "why oh why phone" comment as I'm somebody else who's still packing a 4S.
So far it's been fine and has handled iOS 5 6 & 7 with no problems, works well as a hotspot (as long as you don't need LTE speeds) and still does everything I ask of it with considerable alacrity.
I truly believe that we've reached performance peak with smartphones. For the vast majority of people there is little sense in making them faster. What I truly want is a stop to this saleable metrics race - such things processor speed, number of cores, screen resolution above 300 PPI - and concentrate on making the existing performance more battery friendly.
Re: Got to agree with the "why oh why phone"
Great article.
"So far it's been fine and has handled iOS 5 6 & 7 with no problems"
Don't say that too loud. They'll have no issues building obsolescence into their OS if they have 60 million phones in their warehouse they want to shift.
Shipped vs "in users hands"
Apple ship 30% of the worlds mobile phones.
11% of the mobile phones actually owned and in use are an Apple iPhone.
The rest are Android. Well a percent or 2 are "other".
Re: Shipped vs "in users hands"
And yet developers building apps for iOS make on average twice the revenue per app as they do from their apps when placed on the Google Play AppStore and Apple revenues are far higher than any of their competitors. Seems that 11% who want iOS are a far better business proposition than that 80+ percent, most of whom have found one day they have an Android handset (if most are even aware of that).
Re: Shipped vs "in users hands"
It's simple maths:
Let's assume for a minute, there's a killer app out there for iOS and Android - it's so "must-have" that everyone is going to install it (ie: download ratios cross platform are equal to market shares). On the official stores, it's a paid app.
Now apply the Android average 90% piracy rate - so for every 1 copy of our hypothetical killer app that's paid for on Android, 9 are illegitimately downloaded for free.
80% (market share) * 0.1 (fraction of actual paying customers) = 8% of Android owners are actually paying for said hypothetical must-have app - assuming that it's not so absolutely must-have that people start developing consciences.
Hell, even Windows Phone - currently at 2% worldwide, if memory serves - would be a considerable fraction of this 8%.
Now, I can't really figure other developer factors into this, as I've only recently started working on iOS. But so far, even with the cross-platform capabilities of my chosen toolkit, iOS is proving to have a lot fewer problems than Android.
... too bad that dealing with Apple's administrative processes is proving to be a complete pain in the arse.
Re: Shipped vs "in users hands"
Breen Whitman fabricates 103% of the world's fabricated stats - fact.
Re: Shipped vs "in users hands"
Your stats are probably closer to the other way around. Apple has had for several years now right around a 10% share of the overall mobile market (their ever-declining "smartphone market share" is a result of cheap bottom feeder smartphones replacing cheap bottom feeder feature phones in the mobile market, which help Android's smartphone market share but hurt Apple's)
But iPhones have a longer active service life than Androids, and most of Android's biggest growth has been in the last couple years, so the percentage of iPhones in use is a lot higher than 10%. Probably nowhere near 30%, but certain to be closer to 20% than 10%.
I won't even address the 90% piracy rate business. Obviously piracy is an issue on Android, but it is probably a fraction of that. A bigger factor is that an ever-increasing share of Android phones are sold at the low end of the market (those feature phone replacements) and those people aren't likely to spend much on apps. All Apple buyers (at least when they're new, not the people buying the two year old ones the people buying new sell to Gazelle) are buying at the high end of the market, and are more likely to spend more money on apps. And the statistics bear this out - developers make more money from iOS apps than Android apps, despite Android's dominant market share over iOS.
Bookmarking this article so I can laugh out loud at Jasper, yet again.
Would that be the "YOY-phone", or the "WOW-phone" you've just created?
Given the best Apple have done is to ship 52 million phones in a quarter it may very well be attempted stock manipulation.
Or he is a time traveller telling us to buy now whilst it is cheap.
They aren't saying 75 million phones in a quarter
They're saying 60 million phones in a quarter, with 10 million sold at launch, and presumably the remaining 5 million sold between launch (assumed to be Sept 19th) and September 30th.
That's quite reasonable and actually fairly conservative given that Apple is finally recognizing that the market is demanding larger smartphones. Regardless of whether the final number falls short of, meets or exceeds 60 million for the quarter, it is most likely to be constrained by production rather than demand.

NBA Reaches Deal To Install Stats' SportVU Motion Tracking System Leaguewide
Published September 5, 2013
MILLIONS OF PICTURES PER GAME: The WALL STREET JOURNAL's Ben Cohen reports the six cameras that will be used "record the coordinates of players, referees and the ball 25 times per second, creating millions of geospatial data points per games for front-office wonks to study." The NBA and Stats also are "discussing whether some outside groups, such as university academics who have used the numbers to illuminate their basketball research, will keep their access to the data." Hellmuth said, "Some of the work that's been done over the past couple of years with outside groups has been of great interest. We're only interested in adding to the conversation" (WSJ.com, 9/5).
SYSTEM TO MONITOR REFS: GRANTLAND's Zach Lowe wrote the potential impact on "our understanding of the game, of its X's-and-O's, is fascinating." The NBA is the first U.S. league "to invest this heavily in motion-tracking," but the cameras will "touch on lots of other areas of profound importance to basketball's future that have gotten short shrift amid the hoops-related curiosity." The system will enhance the league's "ability to monitor referees -- always a touchy subject." The cameras are the "most precise way to grade the three on-court officials based on how consistently and early they get into the league's three set positions ... and whether they make appropriate calls from those positions based on the exact sight lines." Hellmuth said, "We will use whatever data and means we can to improve our referees. The refs haven't been tracked before. Now for the first time, they will be." Hellmuth and Stats Exec VP Brian Kopp believe the cameras can "bring the next step in the reinvention of the box score, and that the NBA can popularize that reinvention by putting new numbers in front of fans" (GRANTLAND.com, 9/4).

Overall, the villa was clean, outside was well kept. However there was several issues: TV in main area the satilite did not work, had some come several times to fix it, lights (several burnt out and not replaced), the sink pipes broke (came apart) causing leaking under the sink. It would have been nice if someone would have walked through with us to show us how where the light switches were etc. Despite the minor inconveniences, I would recommend this place to my friends

Canadian Auto Workers,
Ken Lewenza,
currency exchange,
CHICAGO Seven major automakers are spending at least $12.2 billion on facility expansions in North America through 2015, according to an AMM analysis of announcements over the past 16 months. About 70 percent of the total is being spent in the United States and 27 percent in Mexicoand just 3 percent in Canada.
What does that mean for the future of Canadas auto industry? Ken Lewenza, president of the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW) union, believes neither suppliers nor workers should worry that Canadas auto industry is in danger of fading.
Lewenza said the union evaluates every investment decision that automakers announce. The most recent include a $250-million investment by General Motors Co. in its CAMI Automotive plant in Ingersoll, Ontario, and $100 million by Toyota Canada Inc. in its Cambridge, Ontario, facility.
"Im not totally alarmed about investments outside Canada. Investments operate in cycles, and GM (for example) made significant investments in its Oshawa, Ontario, plantin the neighborhood of $1 billionprior to the 2009 restructuring," he said. GMs St. Catharines engine plant also received nearly $250 million in 2010.
Automakers have realized higher capacity utilization and productivity rates at their Canadian plants, offsetting perceived disadvantages such as high wages and a high Canadian dollar. "The reality is, in the last negotiations we had to make wage concessions on new-hire rates ... due to pressure from global companies that can move capital from country to country without dealing with the consequences. That is problematic for us (the union) unless governments step inCanada, the United States or Chinaand make companies invest in their domestic markets," Lewenza said.
"We painfully made sacrifices," but as a result "GM said we positioned ourselves as well as possible for future investment, he said. "It is frustrating to think that if wages were the (primary) determination for getting investment, then all the investments will eventually end up in Mexico. There is always a country that will do it cheaper."
But Lewenza doesnt believe wages are the sole determinant, noting that a mere 7 percent of the total cost of assembling a vehicle is for labor. "Its the quality and productivity of the workforce. J.D. Power & Associates rated the Oshawa and CAMI plants as highly productive," he said. "Our health care, infrastructure, stability, quality and productivityput all that in the pie, and Canada is a good place to invest."
The CAW expects further investment in Ford Motor Co.s Oakville, Ontario, plant and, potentially, at the Windsor minivan assembly plant.
"I keep emphasizing the advantage of Canadian business operations. Our dollar is coming down, which is important with so many exports," Lewenza said.

Every month American Metal Market takes a statistical look inside the marketplace.
We actually don't know who his investors are. At the point when we are ready, we will investigate further. There are just so many things to handle and there are a lot of items to be considered with the project."

Advantages: Very engaging characters and plot, realistic situations

Peter Robinson was a new to me author when I picked this up in the library. The only preconception I had was that it had the tagline Number one bestselling author on the cover, so I thought as it was in my favourite genre of crime it was worth a read.

if I had a twin, where would I be today? I actually do not know how this picture ended up in the library here on this website. My 2nd grade class photo which I manipulated in PSE was fun to do as I was inspired to do a blast from the past type image after hearing from a grade school pal after 44 years. The real question is what ever happened to the *Telephone Dress*? It was a typical little girl dress from the 60's with a bib collar, tight bodice, full skirt and blue waist band that tied in a bow in the back. You needn't ask what I wore on my feet; white anklets and black patent leather Mary Jane's.
I would kill for that telephone fabric now, it had telephones, hand sets, spiral address books and finger dialers in primary colors imprinted on it. I wonder if there is fabric with current day phone devices on it, styled into dresses for 7 year old girls?
p.s. I got my first kiss while wearing this dress. Vinnie Donaghy, behind his parents garage. That is another story all together….

... protect them from the Soviets, so allowing Hitler to occupy France they thought was ok, at first. at least that is what I got from the talk. I don,t know if they realized the consequences, and then it was too late.
Just one thing...all the tour guides in France have been knowledgeable to the 10th degree. They know their stuff, but they don,t ever leave you to view or process on your own. They hold you a bit too tightly. This was no ...
Normandy beaches, D-Day Landing.
... much better involved about the events of that day in June and the weeks after, leading up to the fall of Paris. Thought we would buy some local cider and apple brandy(Calvados).The lady selling at her farm could not manage a smile, let alone a "thank you". Back to a free camping spot where we had lunch, on the cliffs overlooking the beaches. At Longues-sur-Mer. Beautiful sunset. Calvados tasted ...

... so there was plenty of time to stroll through and enjoy it. Strangely enough, large numbers of tourists who visit the Mont don't even visit the abbey, which means they must just visit the tourist shops, as that is all there is besides! After our tour of the abbey, we enjoyed a lovely seafood dinner followed by tha almost obligatory creme brulee. Hard to complain really!! The following day we toured the D-day beaches and Bayeux. Although not as poignant for ...

Cardiology reviews in Norwalk
I went to to far gone to even have a bypass."
NOTE: She is also listed under " would prescribe. She advocates new medications and tests. For example, she prescribed Lovasa (refined fish oil) and PreDX (diabetes indicators). Both are extremely expensive and PreDX is a specialty lab which is not covered by insurance. The test cost over $600 and is no better than the A1C blood test. Lovasa is expensive fish oil at over $100/month, even if it is refined. I would recommend that people think and double check with insurance before just taking her prescribe medications and tests. Dr. "
He is an excellent cardiologist and a very fine gentleman. He is a board certified doctor and has a very proficient office. His medical assistant named I have a very high opinion about him. I have been very happy with all the work he has done for me and have a very high regard for him."
Dr. "
After all the tests were complete, I had a follow-up appointment to discuss the results (even though he had the appointment scheduler let me know that everything appeared fine). Dr /> Dr "
I like my cardiologist. I go to his satellite office in South problems. I see him yearly. He has a main office in "
What is really outstanding about this doctor is how fast he analyzes the situation. I never feel like he is pushing me. When I first saw him in 2001, he correctly analyzed the heart condition the heart condition that did not want it to continue because he didn't like what he saw. He asked me right on the spot on how soon I could get over to Union Memorial Hospital in Baltimore. He said that he would like me there within an hour. So, he was terrifically concerned. I had a quadruple bypass operation done there. He called me after the operation and asked me how the medicines were doing after I got home. I told him that they were making me nauseous and he told me to stop taking them. He is a very pleasant fellow, and he quickly gets to the point. I feel fully satisfied after a five-minute examination, and I feel like he has really done a terrific job. He schedules me for the next appointment after looking at the results of the test. There is nothing that disturbs me with the office. It is not large but it is a very welcoming office. He is right on the spot every time and never makes me wait. He is perfectly adequate for everything that I have needed."

NVIDIA on GeForce GTX 680 voltage control restrictions
By Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 10/08/2012 06:25 AM | 6 comment(s) ]
Last week You all learned that NVIDIA forced EVGA to remove the EVBot connector for its GeForce GTX 680 Classified. A statement from NVIDIA has been released that clarified why they asked their hardware partners to remove all forms of user voltage control. The company claims they've prohibited increasing the voltage beyond the specified limits because doing so will result in an early death of the GPU.Read more

Not all Americans are wasteful, polluting jerks. Thank God for America and all the wonderful advancements that have come out of our society. Ford, nor many other American icons, deserve to be in such a condition as it is the result of failed politics, bad economic policies, and consumers who have been blinded by the media for years in their perception of the US and its companies.
I drive a truck long haul for a living and go across the US coast to coast. I see more than most people do and see society and its habits on a macro scale, icluding the businesses they work at. The majority are wastefull, litter bug, polluting, over spending, arrogant & ignorant. It isn't on purpose but that is just how they are, its all they know. Its how they were brought up and tempered by the government. In the country and less dense areas it is better but in the populated area's it is horrible.btw, driving a truck long haul has to be a social scientist dream job. Its easier looking from the outside in then from the inside out. Its good for investment as well because you can see trends and attitudes changing before the media releases it.From what I've seen is the auto industry is dead. People can't afford these new cars they are driving around and are getting them repoed or they can't get credit for a new car because they only make $25,000/year and already own a large home. There are more and more $100 junker cars coming on the road because that is all they can get. They cars are death machines that spew pollution, tracking sideways, blowing tires,ect. There are more and more broken, abandoned cars on the side of the highways. So many that is nearly an epidemic.95% of the stuff I see is from China and is just repackaged in America and then shipped again. There are only a very few things that are actually manufactured in the US. But, one big industry growing in the US is scrap recycling (ie. Aluminum, lead,ect.)
