Happy Mother's Day to all you ladies out there! Here's a special shout out to my sweet mom.
You just never know what we're going to see outside our window here at Taste of Country Nights. Last Friday there was an early Cinco De Mayo celebration going on, and I just couldn't help myself -- I got out the bullhorn!
Like a lot of you, I sat home today crying at the TV as we said goodbye to George Jones. What a beautiful tribute it was seeing Alan Jackson's tearful version of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today.' I wish country music was still in those good old days.

What a beautiful little Texas town, but such an enormous tragedy that happened. This weekend on my way back to Dallas from San Antonio, I stopped by the town of West, Texas to pay my respects -- and, I guess, to satisfy that curiosity bug I had about what everything looks like.
What a terrible week this has been for country music news. I was out running some errands this morning when I heard about the passing of Mr. George Jones.

House Republican Leader Kurt Daudt was involved in a dispute in Montana last September.
It started as a dispute over the sale of an old truck and ended with a gun pulled.
The documents signed by the county attorney say Daudt was arrested. Minority leader Daudt says he was read his rights and put in handcuffs, but he says he was not arrested.
A friend Daudt was traveling with was charged with three felonies.
KSTP's Jay Kolls spoke with Daudt in an exclusive interview.
Click here to watch part 2 of the interview.
EDITOR'S NOTE: KSTP decided to redact the name of the individual charged in this case, because we would not normally cover a story like this, if it did not include a public official such as the House Minority Leader. Our coverage focuses on the behavior of the elected official in this story. The person charged, in this case, is not a public official, or a public person. The crime he is accused of did not physically injure anyone and did not result in any shots fired.

Excellent accomodations for famillies with teenagers.Enough room for parents and Grandparents too!
Fifteen family members enjoyed a very memorable week this summer at Oak Point. What a beautiful setting! The accommodations were perfect for our family of mostly teens. Six teenage girls bunked down in the Bunkie on the water. The two teenage boys loved the small Bunkie by the dock. The parents of the teens each had their own bedroom in the main cottage and Grandma and Grandpa enjoyed peace and comfort in the Art Studio cottage. We all gathered for meals and family time in the main cottage. The outdoor hot and cold shower was a real hit and well used. The boys caught enough fish for us to have a fish fry for one of our evening meals. We brought our own canoe and that gave us two canoes, two kayaks, and two paddle boats, enough to entertain everyone. The teens got some excellent pictures, posing on the dock of the Bunkie as the sun went down. We had perfect weather which make is so enjoyable, just to relax, play croquet, read or feed the baby ducks and mom. The teens also enjoyed jumping off the railroad bridge into the water until they found out they were breaking some rules by the C.N. Police. We all loved it so much that the teens all want to come back. The only complaint was, we need more than one week. "Let's go for two next summer! We found Joe the caretaker very accommodating and easy to connect with before and after our visit. The property was immaculate with all the amenities of home. Water shoes are a must to enjoy the swims. The water is very clean and refreshing with spectacular scenery no matter where you were looking. We are so happy we found the perfect spot to accommodate our large extended family!

ATi Radeon HD 3870 x2 3d driver hack
It says if the hack is successful that an AMD unsupported hardware watermark will appear. I have Sabayon 5.1 gaming and this watermark appears, so does this mean the driver is preinstalled and hacked?
- 04-21-2010 #2
Well, that guide is for Jaunty. If you read later in the thread folks reported the card was working without hacks using the latest fglrx driver.
Sabayon is based on Gentoo, of which the latest stable fglrx is 9.11. Or you can try the more recent but potentially less stable 10.3 release.
Fglrx - Gentoo Linux Wiki
But to answer your original question, as far as I can tell, that guide is applicable to any distro running that version of the fglrx driver. You would need to adjust how you install the build tools, of course. Obviously apt-get isn't right for many distros, and the package names might be different.

Porsche has been spending the majority of 2013 celebrating the 50th birthday of the 911, with its latest stunt taking the German brand to the home of British motorsports, Silverstone. To celebrate, Porsche invited enthusiasts to take their personal 911s on a lap of the former airfield, and boy, did the Porschephiles show up. 1,208 911s took part in the lap around the Grand Prix circuit, making it the largest-ever gathering of the iconic, rear-engined cars.
This wasn't just a celebration of 50 years for the 911, though. Funds raised were channeled towards Hope For Tomorrow, a cancer charity that works with the United Kingdom's National Health Service in operating mobile chemothereapy units that make life just a little bit easier on cancer patients.
Take a look at the long video below, and enjoy the passing of what are likely examples of every 911 model ever built.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- Despite a tough economy, Gulf Coast Humane Society is celebrating one of their best years yet. A new director is using his own creative twist to get more pets out the door and into happy homes.
GCHS took in hundreds more animals in 2010 than the year before, and still closed out the year with a 13% increase in adoptions. The secret to their success: a new spin on marketing shelter pets.
They're taking their four-legged friends out of their cages and into the community.
"We could be the Taj Mahal. We could be the Ritz Carleton. You can call it whatever you want, and there's going to be a segment of the population, and we totally understand this, that just won't come to a shelter," Gulf Coast Humane Society Executive Director David Stroud said Tuesday.
So, Stroud pushed to bring pets to the people. GCHS hosted 77 community events last year, compared to 12 in 2009. The results are in the numbers. In 2010, the shelter found forever homes for more than 900 animals, and drastically slashed how long pets stay in the shelter.
"If a dog or cat came in here on this date in 2009, a dog was going to be here until Labor Day. A cat was going to be here until Thanksgiving. If a dog or cat came in here on this date on 2010, they were home Easter," Stroud said.
While the numbers are promising, Stroud says Gulf Coast isn't slowing down until all 110 of their current pets land in a permanent place to call home.
"We're not going to settle for the status quo. We know that there's a lot of unwanted, abandoned and neglected animals in Southwest Florida. We're committed to helping those animals," Stroud said.
Gulf Coast Humane Society is also heightening their use of social media, like Facebook, to increase adoptions. So far, they're carrying their success into the new year with adoptions up 14% last month.

By Amy Hurle | Follow on Twitter
I am a lack-lustre television viewer at the best of times, so perhaps it is unsurprising that I missed the foray surrounding FOX Entertainment's science-fiction series Fringe.
Created by J. J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, Fringe premiered in 2008, ran for five seasons and 100 episodes, concluding in January of this year. Apparently I really have been living under a proverbial rock! The series follows Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv), Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson), and Walter Bishop (John Noble), members of the FBI's "Fringe Division" team, which use so-called "fringe" science to investigate a series of unexplained occurrences related to a parallel universe. This I learnt from an elementary Google search upon receiving a copy of Fringe: The Zodiac Paradox, which proudly announces its kinship to the TV series on the front cover.
Like any astute corporation with a popular franchise, FOX commissioned seasoned media tie-in author Christa Faust to write a three part series of prequel novels to be released throughout 2013.
Each will deal with the three members of the Fringe team's past, beginning with Walter Bishop in The Zodiac Paradox. Christa Faust is not only a dab-hand at media tie-ins – she has written novelizations of Friday the 13th, A Nightmare at Elm Street and The Twilight Zone, to name but a few – but she is an author who writes "original" novels, indeed critically acclaimed ones: Money Shot won the 2009 Crimespree Award for Best Original Paperback.
Ultimately, I approached The Zodiac Paradox with the bare-bones of information, and no expectations.
The Zodiac Paradox is what it is – an attempt to cash-in on a television franchise – a novel catered towards fans of the show who were left with a cavernous Fringe cavity at the end of January.
Faust attempts to fill this gap with the back-story of Walter Bishop and his discovery a chemical compound that can link subconscious minds (a drug, I understand, that is a prevalent feature of the television series). The process of psychic connection induced by the compound inadvertently opens a portal into a parallel universe, through which a serial killer emerges. Adventure ensues as the murderer, dubbed 'The Zodiac Killer,' escapes and Walter and his accomplices, William Bell and Nina Sharp, attempt to find him and send him back from whence he came.
To a large extent, the narrative development is fast paced, making the book a quick and easy read. Plot is driven forth as Walter and his friends chase the killer, attempting far-fetched experiments involving "alpha wave synchronization and telepathy" (284), while they evade the corrupt FBI who are chasing them instead of 'the bad guy.' However, the narrative is interrupted by verbose descriptions that sometimes get in the way of smooth plot development; particularly annoying is the forced, scientific terminology that merely serves to baffle the reader:
"While your [Walter's] argument for the inclusion of caffeine to provide an additional generalized arousal of the senses is both well-reasoned and valid, I would counter that the unique balance between phosphoric acid and citric acid in grape Nehi will better complement the biosynthetic ergoline compound in our newly formulated pharmacological launchpad." (p. 9)
In attempting to portray Walter and William as nerdy scientists through such language, the use only serves to serrate the narrative. Her characterization of the main protagonists is thoroughly one-dimensional and annoyingly stereotypical. To further exasperate this situate, Faust does not even attempt to delve into the (potential) motives of the serial killer, which creates a flat, superficial villain.

Need advice for Thyroid doc in SC
Hi again. Earlier I posted this:
Need advice
Hi- I am in upstate SC and have been dx hypo for two and half years. My internist has had me on Synthroid first 50 then 75 and now 88 mcg in that time frame. In that time I have gained almost 30 pounds. My fatigue and general crappy feeling seems to get worse when she increases my dose. Also I have asked her about my free t3 results but all she says is give the T4 time to work! I am obviously looking to change primary Docs and would appreciate any advice for docs in SC. I think two years of worsening symptoms and weight gain are enough.
My labs from January:
Thanks for any and all advice. We primarily eat Paleo in this house. With a major lapse over Christmas but back on the program now.
Wanted to thank those that responded! Currently trying to search the forum for doctor info but having trouble with the search engine:(
Would still welcome any advice on a understanding thyroid doc in SC. I live in Greenville but travel the state for my job. And dot mind driving to see someone out of town because I am so frustrated. Thanks!
That's so odd---I get an error message when I try that link.
got to the thyroid main page and search S.C or south carolina. That was what the link was/should have been.

This is an award winning soup recipe. The soup should be silky and smooth but not thick; it should be spicy, but not too hot; it should have a sharpness of tomato and lemon, but not be sour; it should taste of peanuts, but not of peanut butter. It freezes beautifully. Note - I just adopted this one -- it was originally posted by my friend Mean Chef -- the intro is perfect and is exactly what you should be tasting in the final product! :-)

Outdoor patio for b-day dinner party
I'm looking for a restaurant that has a nice outdoor patio for a large group of people (12 people or so). I don't want a place that is too loud and crazy. Somewhere with a fun but sophisticated atmosphere and of course, great food. Location-wise, it could be in Silverlake, Hollywood, Bev. Hills, Santa Monica, Venice... Any recs. are much appreciated.
How about Orso on 3rd Street or Pan e Vino on Beverly? Both have outdoor patio's I think fit your needs.
Little Door (West Hollywood ish) -- solid, fresh food, gorgeous Euro-Morrocan patio, good bar, beautiful atmosphere. Buffalo Club (Santa Monica-ish) has a more expansive patio, sophisticated and festive atmopshere with Chinese laterns and live bands performing sometimes. Neither place is breaking the mold cuisine-wise but definitely solidly good, highish-end eats.
I don't know if you want to go to Woodland Hills, but we really like Villa Piacere. The patio is really pretty and the food is good, too.
Four more options: Chez Mimi (26th near San Vicente in Brentwood), Il Moro (Purdue near Olympic in WLA), Lucques (Melrose near La Cienega), Michael's (3rd near Wilshire in SM).
Cliff's Edge in Silverlake has a magical outdoor patio. Really good drinks. Great setting. And decent food--if you stick to the "basics."
re: hrhboo
I do too. The shortribs are excellent. However, their wines are pretty pricey so I'm a little worried that it could be pretty expensive.
my birthday dinner was at dominick's last year. they have a great outdoor patio that may be along the lines of what you're looking for: fun and a step up from casual but not crazy. we went for the $15 sunday supper and were a bit disappointed with the size of the portions (when they put the bowls of risotto down in front of us, we were all excited ... until they told us each bowl was meant for two people!). but i guess you get what you pay for. their regular menu might be better though.
Gorgeous patio and great food - Il Cielo - Beverly Hills
Not sure if I'd call it "fun" though. It's really nice. Definitely not a loud place.
I also second the Pane e Vino rec.

Xu, Yanfei and Wang, Yan and Liang, Jiajie and Huang, Yi and Ma, Yanfeng and Wan, Xiangjian and Chen, Yongsheng (2009) A hybrid material of graphene and poly (3,4-ethyldioxythiophene) with high conductivity, flexibility, and transparency. Nano Research, 2 (4). pp. 343-348.
A novel hybrid material prepared from graphene and poly (3,4-ethyldioxythiophene) (PEDOT) shows excellent transparency, electrical conductivity, and good flexibility, together with high thermal stability and is easily processed in both water and organic solvents. Conductivities of the order of 0.2 S/cm and light transmittance of greater than 80% in the 400-1800 nm wavelength range were observed for films with thickness of tens of nm. Practical applications in a variety of optoelectronic devices are thus expected for this transparent and flexible conducting graphene-based hybrid material.

Beyoncé and 25 Real Girls Show Off Their Chic Flash Tattoos
While permanent tattoos have long been a common choice for body modification for adults, temporary tats are typically brushed off as a trend for tweens. That is, until Flash Tattoos came onto the scene. These metallic body adornments are popular with celebrities and music festivalgoers alike, but even if you fit into neither of those categories, you'll still admire the beauty of these neat appliqués. Not sure how to style yours? Scroll through and take a cue from these Instagram users — and don't blame us if you end up wanting to bling out your entire body.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- More than a decade after her death, authorities say they have a new lead in the brutal murder of a Charleston woman.
Police say 41-year-old Terry Clark was murdered in her Lewis Street apartment in 1999. They later found her body left naked on the side of Route 119 near Walton.
Since then, police have been on the hunt for her killer. All efforts had come up short -- until now. Authorities say a major breakthrough in the case has led them to a person of interest.
"It's great for the family to provide some closure," Kanawha County Prosecutor Mark Plants said. "But it's still at the very beginning. Every investigation starts and it continues."
Authorities say that person is currently in jail in Tennessee on an unrelated charge. They're not releasing his name until formal charges are filed in the case.

Citizen Science Tuesday: Monarchs Journey North
Why do monarchs migrate? How do they know when to go to Mexico? How do they know where to fly? Citizen Scientists are finding the answers on Journey North.
Canary in the Cornfield: Why the Fuss about Monarchs?
Everyone is talking about the record low count of monarchs at their overwintering site in Mexico, but what is really happening to these butterflies and why does it matter?
The Monarch Butterfly Decline, and What You Can Do About It
For the past month, monarch butterflies have caused a lot of buzz in both the news and in conservation circles. The reason: a report published by the World Wildlife Fund and others that documented a 59 percent decline in monarch populations this year.
This week, Yale360 published perhaps the best piece yet on this alarming decline, Richard Conniff's interview with Chip Taylor of Monarch Watch. It presents a number of interesting issues that conservationists should notice.
It's well known that almost the entire eastern population of monarch butterflies overwinters in a few clustered forests in Mexico. These tiny islands of habitat make the butterflies vulnerable. Many U.S. residents believe that the population decline is, in fact, due to logging in Mexican forests. But as Taylor points out, the Mexican government has done an excellent job stopping illegal logging.
So why the decline?
The study's authors point to agricultural fields. Taylor suggests that the monarch butterfly is likely "collateral damage" from the use of genetically engineered crops, namely Roundup-ready corn and soybeans. These crops have resulted in significantly higher pesticide use, wiping out the milkweeds that monarchs need to survive.
As Taylor says in the interview:
Now you are really hard pressed to find any corn or soybeans that have milkweed in the fields. I haven't seen any for years now because of the use of Roundup after they planted these crops. They have effectively eliminated milkweed from almost all of the habitat that monarchs used to use.
Additionally, due to biofuel and high crop prices, there are more acres in corn and soybean production than any year since just after World War II. This has meant that a lot of land has been taken out of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and a lot of marginal land–where milkweeds once grew– has been tilled.
That's a lot of lost habitat for wildlife, including monarch butterflies.
And here's where you come in.

text: NHL inches toward deal to send players to Olympics Print article Send a Tip AP 7/1/2013 8:35:10 PM (AP) NHL inches toward deal to send players to OlympicsBy IRA PODELLAP Sports WriterNEW YORKThere is still no deal to send NHL players to next year's Olympics. But all signs point in that direction, and NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman says "things are moving along."Bettman, union leader Donald Fehr and International Ice Hockey Federation President Rene Fasel met for more than five hours Monday at league headquarters to work out a deal that would allow NHL players to compete in Sochi. This would be the fifth Olympics for the NHL.Not everything has been agreed to and the various sides need to meet internally to sign off on any pact. Still, Bettman calls Monday's session a "constructive meeting," adding there are still "some I's to dot and T's to cross."But, he adds: "I think it's fair to say that we're not quite ready to announce it's done."

I've been playing Monkey games since the first was released in the early 90s.
I like the graphics of Tales. I believe it is an improvement upon all previous monkey games.
I have 2 questionable opinions though:
It is the easiest Monkey game.
It is the shortest Monkey game (assuming all chapters will be a similar length to the first)
Besides these 2 things I congratulate Telltale Games. They done a great job of revitalising this old classic, thanks!

Faced with defense budget reductions, Chicago-based Boeing Co. announced Wednesday it will close its defense plant in Wichita by the end of 2013.
The closure will cost more than 2,160 workers their jobs and end the firm's presence in a city where it has been a major employer for generations.
The decision was not entirely unexpected. The company said in November it was studying whether to close the Wichita facility, which specializes in modifying commercial aircraft for military or government operations, to address Defense Department budget cuts. The first layoffs are expected to begin in the third quarter of 2012.
Boeing has had a facility in Wichita since it bought the Stearman Aircraft Co. in 1929.
Employment at the plant peaked during World War II as the company churned out four bombers a day. Its 40,000 workers included President Barack Obama's beloved grandmother Madelyn Dunham, known as "Toot," who did her part for the war effort by working the night shift as a supervisor on the B-29 bomber assembly line.
The company remained Wichita's largest employer for decades after the war.
It still had about 15,000 workers in the city in 2005, when it spun off its commercial aircraft operations in Kansas and Oklahoma. After the divestiture, Boeing kept 4,500 workers for its defense work in Wichita but layoffs have since slashed that number.
The company, a major defense contractor, began looking at closing the plant at the same time the Pentagon was trying to prevent $500 billion in automatic, across-the-board defense budget cuts over 10 years in the wake of the failure by a bipartisan congressional supercommittee to agree on $1.2 trillion or more in deficit reductions.
The decision drew an angry response from Kansas lawmakers who helped Boeing land a lucrative Air Force refueling tanker project in February and had expected thousands of jobs to come to Wichita with it. Instead, the work will go to Boeing's facilities near Seattle and Oklahoma City.
Modification work on the planes was expected to generate 7,500 direct and indirect jobs with an overall economic impact of nearly $390 million.
U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts said Boeing had promised as recently as February to remain in Wichita if it landed the tanker contract.
Boeing said 24 Kansas-based suppliers for the refueling tanker project will still provide parts as planned.
"In this time of defense budget reductions, as well as shifting customer priorities, Boeing has decided to close its operations in Wichita to reduce costs, increase efficiencies and drive competitiveness," Mark Bass, vice president and general manager for the Boeing Defense, Space & Security facility in Wichita, said in a statement.
While the Seattle area will build the tanker, engineering and modification work on it will move to Oklahoma City and future aircraft maintenance, modification and support will go to San Antonio, Texas.
Oklahoma will get about 800 jobs and San Antonio will gain 300 to 400 jobs, Bass said. The company will move 200 tanker jobs to its plant in Washington, while moving 100 support jobs, primarily engineering, now in Washington to Oklahoma City in the shuffle.
Boeing said it will continue to have a significant impact on the Kansas economy and its aerospace industry. The Chicago-based company spent more than $3.2 billion with 475 Kansas suppliers last year. Kansas is the fourth largest state in its supplier network, it said.

2010 Lincoln Mark LT debuts for our friends to the South
by Chris Shunk (RSS feed) on Aug 7th, 2009 at 11:31AM
The Lincoln Mark LT was an unmitigated failure in the US market, but in Mexico it's been the marque's top-seller, with 6,000 units leaving dealers since 2005. So while the gussied-up F-150 was unceremoniously euthanized in the US, Ford's luxury brand had to whip up something with a star badge, a split grille and a work-over with el feo palo for our southern compadres. The 2010 Lincoln Mark LT looks a lot like the Ford F-150 Platinum fitted with a new grille (Ford didn't even change the headlights) and some Lincoln badging, because essentially, that's what it is. The new LT shares all the... Read More

Good News: Elmo Sells Fruit!
Today in The Positive Power of Branding News: findings from a recent Cornell University branding study caught our eye as a rare point of light among the usual thread of negative news. Why? Because researchers seem to have discovered, at long last, a way to convince kids to eat their fruits (if not their vegetables).
When given a choice, a 10-year-olds will always pick a cookie over an apple, right? Well, this nugget of common knowledge is no match for the power of branding fueled by a little of that Muppets magic.
The study in question involved more than 200 boys and girls of various backgrounds aged 8 to 11. On each day of a given week, after each child selected a lunch option, they were given a choice of either a cookie or an apple for an after-meal "dessert." Here's where the researchers played with the kids' minds: On alternating days, they placed an Elmo sticker on each item. They also measured the results when the sticker bore an unfamiliar character and when neither item included a sticker.
Their findings were a little shocking: Kids were twice as likely to pick the apple over the cookie if it had Elmo's image on it. What's more, the Muppet didn't make the cookie any more appealing–and the unknown character made no difference at all.

First of all, 4 or 5 tanks is a lot. We had 3 when learning Naxx25.
Stacking all gear on 1 tank is not a good idea, first of all, you put all your eggs in one basket, if that tank can't be online one day (or just leaves the guild / stop playing) you're in big trouble. Second, multiple bosses require more then 1 tank. Stacking gear on all 5 tanks is a bad idea, it's just too many people.
We used MT prio on T7 gear. We used it for about 3-4 resets (Naxx was cleared the first reset I think).
Our idea was that the bosses hit hard, and, while some bosses had enrage timers, there was no issue whatsoever to reach them in the first place. Better geared tanks benefit far more to the guild then one better geared dps. Tanks also usually have higher attendance then your average player.
We had 2 warriors and 1 paladin on the "tank prio" for T7, and it didn't really give any issue. You also need a really good geared tank for Malygos and Sartharion (with drakes) so that helped us out a lot.

SBRE ROOT\LEGACY_SBRE\0000 ERROR - What and how to fix please!
Hello to all,
Not being as deeply into computing as I once was, I am unable to resolve this issue if it is indeed a problem. Always have gotten munificent assistance in this forum and hoping for a hand.
I have been having several issues on my computer and I found and ran for the first time, System Info > Problem Device. Much to my surprise I was confronted with the Device = SBRE, the PNP Device ID = ROOT\LEGACY_SBRE\0000, Error Code This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all it's drivers.
The computer is a homebuilt, this is the second board and processor running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit. It is a
MSI G52-XXXX1HA board and a AMD Phenom II X4 965 Processor. Did some research and got as far as going into the Device Manager, enabling hidden devices and in a list of Non-Plug and Play Devices I found the SBRE entry which shows an alert.
The unknown device is stopped and will not start because of uninstalled software.
Now as to the unknown issues I have that are discomforting and unknown to me as to why or how....
Both Motherboards have shown an inability to identify the SATA Ports consistently. Constant changing their order. C:\ drive becomes #1 and is shown as a secondary drive sometimes with my D:\ Drive showing as the primary or and vice versa.
The second problem is IIRC only occurring with the current board and processor, is that the OS will sometimes boot up to the control/alt/delete prompt and when entered, will not show the accounts and the drive will show intermittent brief drive activity and stay that way. This requires a reset, which advices that Windows shut down incorrectly when restarted and do I want to troubleshoot or run Windows normally. So far and much elementary troubleshooting, I have found that it seems to always function correctly after allowing the start Windows normally option. This issue is most often associated with a restart of some kind except for IIRC forced restarts.
Any assistance or ideas will as always be appreciated!

text: On September 2, 1998, approximately 1740 mountain daylight time, an Air Tractor AT-502B, N50620, was destroyed by fire following an emergency landing near Portales, New Mexico. The commercial pilot, the sole occupant in the airplane, received minor injuries. The airplane was owned/operated by King AG Leasing Inc. under Title 14 CFR Part 137. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the local aerial application flight which originated approximately 25 minutes before the accident. No flight plan had been filed.According to the pilot, he had flown 7 or 8 east-west passes over a cotton field, and was flying westbound into the sun (266 degrees, 19 degrees above the horizon). He said that there was a circular pivotal sprinkler extending from the northern center of the field to the southeast. He was adjusting his onboard global positioning system (GPS) and when he looked up, "I was right at the sprinkler." He said that he "immediately pulled up elevator but still struck the sprinkler." The pilot stated that a fire broke out in the right hand forward part of the cockpit and he knew he had to get out as soon as possible.The pilot reported that the sprinkler impact had separated the left main landing gear and when he landed in the adjacent peanut field, the airplane ground looped to the left. He further stated that when the airplane came to rest, "I opened the left cockpit door and bailed out as quick as possible." The pilot received second degree burns on his right hand and arm, and first degree burns on his face.

Do you have an idea for a quirky, visual, silly book? Take my advice: Rather than pitching it to various publications, which is more or less a shot in the dark anyway, start a blog. Should that blog become popular, that book deal and tour will be just one contract away. Even if you never had a book pitch set up, if you run a popular blog, you will someday have a book deal. Stuffwhitepeoplelike.wordpress.com started out as an inside joke between two friends. Forty-three millions hits later, it is now an internet phenomenon, book, and inside joke shared with millions who surf the web. So what do white people like? Things like "irony," "hating corporations," and "Michel Gondry" seem to be more appropriately described as "stuff hipsters like." Others, like "New Balance Shoes," "sea salt," and "sweaters" strike me as stuff suburbanites like. And who doesn't like "coffee," "dogs," and "music piracy?" Regardless of whether you agree, a 15-minute glance at the book or website will probably elicit at least one chuckle.

November 27, 2014
CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) - Gov. Brian Sandoval remains bullish about Nevada's economic future and discounts banter about pending tax initiatives as premature and wrong for the state.
Sandoval says he doesn't believe in setting tax policy through the initiative process.
But at least one such initiative is coming, and backers say it stems from years of frustration with legislators failing to adequately fund education and other vital state services.
The most visible effort is being led by Nevada AFL-CIO leader Danny Thompson, who before the start of the 2011 legislative session warned he would take the tax battle to voters if lawmakers failed to act.
Thompson is following through with that promise. He said backers are fine-tuning language and expect to file it with the secretary of state's office soon.
