Rubicon Provides Updates, Phoenix Gold Project, Red Lake, Ontario
- New deep intercept 3,776 feet below surface(1151 metres) of 0.30 oz/ton gold over 16.4 feet plus 1.19 oz/ton gold over 1.6 feet - - Robust F2 gold system continues to the southwest and to depth - - Shaft extension underway and property-wide drilling expanded by up to 20,000 metres to test other Phoenix targets - TSX:RMX / NYSE Amex:RBY
Drilling Update
In its
In its
Two underground drill holes designed to test shallow gold intercepts in F2-54 intersected a fault zone, which was also intersected by two shallow holes drilled from surface. This fault zone appears to have displaced gold mineralization observed in F2-54. Further drilling is required to understand the significance of the fault in this area.
Regional Drilling
Rubicon is pleased to announce it plans to drill up to an additional 20,000 metres testing a number of priority targets within the
The expanded regional drill program will test a number of priority targets elsewhere on the property (Figure 3). These targets occur in the area of, or beneath, known significant gold bearing areas and/or in association with strong Titan24 geophysical anomalies. As Figure 3 shows, there are numerous (greater than)15g/t gold intercepts (mostly at very shallow levels) across the property attesting to the presence of an extensive gold mineralizing system now documented over a four kilometre strike length. It is noteworthy that the F2 Zone is closely associated with a Titan24 anomaly and this raises the possibility of a similar association elsewhere on the property, especially on strike to the F2 Zone.
"These latest results continue to demonstrate that the large F2 gold system is growing both laterally and to depth. Our drilling well over a kilometre to the southwest of the core F2 Zone provides further encouragement that the gold system is present well beyond our current area of focused drilling. Furthermore, when we look at the property as a whole, there are a striking number of high-grade gold occurrences which have generally been explored to only shallow depths. Based on what we see at the F2 Zone, these areas need to be tested further so we have increased the scope of our drilling by up to 20,000 metres in this regard." said
Shaft Sinking Commenced
Rubicon is also pleased to announce that shaft sinking commenced

The foundation of benefit-cost analysis (BCA) is welfare-change measurement: the benefit from some proposed action is the money-related welfare change that it generates. The concept of benefit is an increase in welfare, that is, preference satisfaction; and welfare change is measured in terms of money. Valid money measures of welfare change can be defined conceptually and can be estimated with reasonable accuracy, precision, and reliability; and individual welfare changes to arrive at social benefits and costs can be added up. Skepticism about any of those claims, in general or in the specific application to biodiversity, suggests that caveats should be applied to the interpretation of benefit-cost information or its use in policy decisions.
The conceptually valid measures of welfare change are willingness to pay (WTP) for benefits and willingness to accept (WTA) for costs. WTP is the amount of money that someone would willingly pay to get a desired good, service, or state of the world rather than go without; WTA is the amount of money that would induce someone to willingly give up the good, service, or state of the world. Those measures are readily defined in market terms—WTP is the buyer's best offer, and WTA is the seller's reservation price (the price at which the seller will hold rather than sell)—but they are by no means restricted to commodity markets. Some people are willing to pay substantial amounts of money for improvements in the quality of their life. Some would willingly accept a lower level of amenities if compensated with money; for example, some would willingly move to an undesirable location if promised a large enough pay raise.
For BCA of a policy proposal, aggregate benefits are defined as the sum of WTP figures for all those who stand to gain from the proposal. Aggregate costs are the sum of WTA figures for all who would provide goods and services or bear disamenities if the policy proceeds. Some critics object to aggregating benefits or costs that accrue to individuals, on the grounds that individuals with greater income and wealth tend to have greater WTP (or WTA) and that simple aggregation makes no attempt to correct for this or to place extra weight on things that benefit the disadvantaged.
Given that many proposals promise benefits and costs continuing well into the future, the "bottom line" of the BCA is expressed as net present value, that is, the difference between the sum of present and future benefits and the sum of present and future costs, all discounted to the present. The practice of discounting has been controversial in some circles, especially in the context of environmental projects and policies (for example, Daly and Cobb 1989), where it is claimed that discounting tends to trivialize the demands of future generations for present conservation (see box 5-1) . That argument has been winning fewer converts in recent years (Heywood 1995), as economists have been reminding us

Combustion 101: Optimizing the Burn
On-demand Web Seminar
Opens in New Window/External URL
In this web seminar we will discuss problem areas that engineers in the combustion industry often encounter and how the use of 'Concurrent CFD' heat transfer and fluid flow analysis enables Design Engineers to have a direct and positive influence on the reliability and optimization of modern combustion product designs.
During this presentation, the presenter will demonstrate how easy it is with Concurrent CFD to simulate the design of a Gas Turbine Combustor, re-create virtually the problems inherent in a design and then optimize and evaluate the results. The presenter will then go on to show you how to perform "what-if" analysis, such as the addition of extra cooling by quickly modifying the designers original MCAD model geometry and analyzing the simulation results for the new design.
What You Will Learn
- How to perform heat transfer and fluid Flow analysis with embedded Concurrent CFD in a familiar 3D MCAD interface
- Understand the impact of analysis driven design on:
- Primary zone airflow pattern to provide sufficient time for fuel to burn, sufficient temperature, and sufficient turbulence/mixing for desired air/fuel ratio
- Combustor pressure drop
- Liner temperature preventing combustor failure by using Thermal Barrier Coatings and Thin Film Cooling
- How 'Concurrent CFD' increases overall product efficiency and product reliability
- How to study turbine inlet temperatures using heat transfer analysis
- Now to visualize flow and heat distribution in a virtual 3D environment
- Efficient ways to share results with design teams and customers

What to Watch: Damaris and Giada Welcome Spring with New Recipes and the Premiere of America's Best Cook
by Joseph Erdos in Shows, April 11th, 2014On Saturday, Ree is putting on a big Cajun-style party for her father-in-law, and on Heartland Table, Amy is bringing back the supper club. Sunday morning, tune in to Rachael for a week's worth of meals prepared in one day. Later Damaris helps her uncle create a spring lamb feast. Then Giada makes an Easter luncheon for her family. And Guy's Big Bite is all about one of Guy's favorite comfort foods: hot dogs.
On Sunday evening, tune in to a new episode of Food Court Wars — one team specializes in sub sandwiches, the other team focuses on comfort food. Then on the premiere of America's Best Cook, 16 cooks from four regions compete for just eight spots. Mentors Alex, Cat, Michael and Tyler will each pick the two home cooks they think will best represent their region (East, South, North and West, respectively) during competition. Only one home cook will walk away the winner of $50,000 at the end of six weeks. Then on a new Cutthroat Kitchen, one chef must use a cement mixer while making a layer cake.
The Pioneer Woman: "Happy Birthday, Pa-Pa"
The whole family is pitching in for a big party to celebrate the birthday of Ree's father-in-law, Chuck. Everyone is gathering at the lodge for a Cajun Surf and Turf feast, with rare beef tenderloin and juicy jumbo shrimp, and Cajun Mashed Potatoes and Garlic Butter Dinner Rolls on the side. The girls are helping Ree make a delicious Strawberry Shortcake Cake, while her sister-in-law makes salad and her mother-in-law takes the boys shopping. It's one birthday Chuck will never forget.

Heartland Table: "Steak Night"

Rachael Ray's Week in a Day: "Ahead of the Game"
Rachael Ray makes five 30 minute make-ahead meals: Beef Goulash with Blue Cheese, Toasted Spaghetti Minestra with Tuscan Kale, Sweet Sausage and Eggplant Penne, Boneless Chicken Chasseur, and Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese. That's five make-ahead meals, up to a week's worth of food, done — in just one day!

Southern at Heart: "Family Feast"
Damaris helps her kitchen-challenged Uncle John tackle the traditional Phillips spring lamb feast. Taking the intimidation out of preparing a large roast, Damaris demonstrates an easy cooking method and simply layers fresh flavors to bring out the best qualities of Roasted Lamb with Mint Chimichurri. Feta roasted new potatoes and togarashi-glazed carrots round out this crowd-pleasing menu that shows a fresh take on traditional Southern fare.
Sunday 10a|9c
Giada at Home: "Springtime in Italy"
Giada makes a very traditional Italian Easter luncheon for her family using the fresh flavors of Italy. The menu features Italian Springtime Lamb, Artichoke Risotto and Whipped Ricotta Salad.
Sunday 10:30a|9:30c
For Guy, hot dogs are pure family comfort. They're a staple at ballparks and family cookouts, and Guy likes his with coleslaw and apple pie — and you know he does all three with an outta-bounds, Guy-style twist! We're talking bacon-wrapped Danger Dogs with Spicy Fruit Relish, Creamy Broccoli Fennel Slaw and a Moonshine Apple Pie Cocktail.
Sunday 11:30a|10:30c
Food Court Wars: "Submarino's vs. Molly's Kitchen"
Friends and co-workers Randy and Brandon are ready to bring Randy's family-run submarine sandwich food truck concept to the food court. Close friends Michelle and Lindsey love home-cooked comfort foods; ever since Michelle was forced to close her bakery, she has dreamed of getting back into the culinary world. Watch as these two teams bring their dreams to the mall in Logan, Utah.

America's Best Cook: "Making the Cut"
Sixteen of the country's best amateur cooks arrive in New York for their chance at $50,000 and the title of America's Best Cook. But first, they must compete to represent their region, in one of two spots on a superstar chef mentor's team. Iron Chef Michael Symon will be choosing from the North, Iron Chef Cat Cora takes the South, Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli is heading up the East and Food Network star Chef Tyler Florence is representing the West. The mentors will be choosing wisely, as they will also be out of the competition if both of their cooks are eliminated.
Sunday 9|8c
Cutthroat Kitchen: "Layer, I Hardly Know Her!"
One chef is forced to serve a hot version of cobb salad, someone must build his or her own kitchen from random items inside a shopping cart, and another chef gets down and dirty when forced to make a layer cake with a cement mixer.

I find it strange that the Food Network is unaware of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. I happen to be from your map's nonexistent Upper Peninsula & I take great umbrage at this omission.
Wow, no UP or Door County, Wisconsin. I think someone needs to hire a new graphic designer for the show….or whomever was responsible for the omission.
Who is the idiot that made and used this map? You totally left out the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I could see, maybe, leaving off a small peninsula here and there. But the U.P. of Michigan is rather large.
Well, on second thought, maybe it's a good thing that you forget about us Yoopers. We'll keep all the beauty, culture and serenity to ourselves.
Hey! You missed some of the best parts of the US! Come visit my website and I'll show you how we cook up in northeast Wisconsin and the UP.
In cooking, as in many other fields, such as cartography, attention to detail is often key to success! The background map in the accompanying picture for ABC indicates a lack of care for cartographic accuracy. Does this carry over to your other content?
Interesting. Maybe you need to hire a new map maker that knows the geographics of the United States. Part of Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula are missing. It doesn't surprise me. This has happened more than once on national maps of the US. Sometimes it is ommited or sometimes people think we are part of Wisconsin.
Why would you leave off a part of Michigan? You got all of Florida on your map,why couldn't you get all of Michigan on there too? Imagine how upset half of the people in Florida would have been if you just ignored them. I think you get the idea that the Yoopers won't like it too well that you didn't get the Upper Peninsula on your map!
Until the Food Network finds a map that includes the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and the rest of Wisconsin, I think my cable box will have to skip over the Food Network channel.
It would appear that you have forgotten to include the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Door County in Wisconsin on your map of the United States. But I guess you have figured that out from all of the other comments posted. Perhaps you should visit these awesome places. However, you might need to get a new map…….
Welcoming spring and not even considering the upper peninsula of Michigan is just wrong. No one gets spring fever like a YOOPER. And the Food Network is clearly missing out on some pretty amazing food by not checking out Gods country and very unique recipes and food traditions passed down through the generations.

Zara Anne Elizabeth Phillips MBE (born 15 May 1981) is a British equestrian and the second-eldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Zara Phillips is the second child and only daughter from the marriage of Anne, Princess Royal and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips. She is 15th in the line of succession.
She is married to ex-England rugby union player Mike Tindall, and whilst she continues to use her maiden name professionally, socially she is formally styled Mrs Michael Tindall MBE.[1]
Phillips won the Eventing World Championship in Aachen in 2006. The same year she was voted 2006 BBC Sports Personality of the Year by the British viewing public (an award her mother won in 1971). She was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2007 New Year's Honours List (on the advice of HM Government) for her services to equestrianism.[2] In 2012, she carried an Olympic flame at Cheltenham Racecourse on her horse Toytown. As a member of the Great Britain Eventing Team, she won a Silver Medal at the London 2012 Olympics and was presented with her medal by her mother.
Zara Phillips was born on 15 May 1981 at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington in west London. She was baptised Zara Anne Elizabeth Phillips on 27 July 1981, and her first name was suggested by her uncle, the Prince of Wales.[3] Her godparents were: her maternal uncle, Prince Andrew; the Countess of Lichfield; Helen, Lady Stewart (wife of Sir Jackie Stewart); Andrew Parker Bowles; and Hugh Thomas.[4] Zara herself is godmother to Prince George of Cambridge.[5]
Phillips has an older brother, Peter Phillips (born 15 November 1977) and two half-sisters, Felicity Tonkins (born in 1985 to her father by his brief affair with Heather Tonkins)[6] and Stephanie Phillips, born 2 October 1997 from her father's second marriage to Sandy Pflueger.
The children of the Princess Royal do not hold any royal or noble title. They are not entitled to royal status by right of birth, as they are the grandchildren of a monarch in the female line, and their father declined a title in his own right.[7] As a child she and her brother attended Trooping the Colour and a few other royal events with their mother.
Phillips went to Beaudesert Park School in Stroud, Gloucestershire, and Port Regis School in Shaftesbury, Dorset, before following other members of the Royal Family by attending Gordonstoun School in Moray, Scotland. During her schooldays, Phillips excelled at many sporting activities, representing her schools in hockey, athletics and gymnastics. She was also successful academically, scoring 11 GCSEs from A* to C and a B and C in her A-levels.[8] She later qualified as a physiotherapist specialising in equine physiotherapy, from the University of Exeter.[9]
On 21 December 2010, Buckingham Palace announced her engagement to rugby union player Mike Tindall, who plays for Premiership side Gloucester and the England national team. She lives with Tindall at their home in Gloucestershire. The couple met during England's Rugby World Cup-winning campaign in Australia in 2003.[10]
Their wedding was held on 30 July 2011 at the Canongate Kirk in Edinburgh, Scotland.[11][12] The bride wore a Stewart Parvin dress and the Meander tiara.[13] This tiara belonged to her great-grandmother, Princess Andrew of Greece and Denmark. It was a tiara that her mother also wore.[14]
On 8 July 2013, it was announced by Buckingham Palace that Phillips and Tindall were expecting their first child.[15] With her husband present, Phillips gave birth to a daughter, Mia (pronounced My-ya)[16] Grace Tindall, on 17 January 2014 at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital. She is 16th in the line of succession.[17] Phillips has hopes of raising her daughter to be athletic.[18] As Phillips herself is a public figure, appearances of her daughter are also often noted.[19] Contrary to rumour, she has not hired a nanny.[20]

Medal record
Following in both her parents' footsteps, Phillips is an accomplished equestrian.[21] In June 2003, she announced that she had secured a sponsorship deal with Cantor Index, a leading company in spread betting, to help cover the costs of her equestrian career.
Riding her horse Toytown, she collected individual and team gold medals at the 2005 European Eventing Championship in Blenheim, and individual gold and team silver medals at the 2006 FEI World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany, making her the reigning Eventing World Champion until 2010.
Despite winning team gold at the 2007 European Eventing Championships in Italy, she failed to defend her individual title after a problem in the show-jumping phase of the competition.[22]
The British Olympic Association announced that Phillips would be riding Toytown for the British equestrian team at the Beijing Olympic Games 2008 in Hong Kong.[23] However, an injury sustained by Toytown during training led to her being forced to withdraw from the team. Zara previously missed the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, when Toytown suffered a similar injury during training.[24]
On 25 October 2008, she fell from her horse, Tsunami II, at the 15th fence of a cross-country event at Pau, France, and broke her right collarbone. The horse broke its neck after it had tipped over the hedge and was put down.[25]
On 11 June 2012, Phillips was announced as being a part of the British Equestrian team at the 2012 London Olympic Games.[26] She competed in the 2012 Olympics on her new horse, High Kingdom, where she won silver in the team eventing. Her medal was presented by her mother, Princess Anne.[27] Philips finished 2nd at Luhmühlen Horse Trials 2013, on her top horse High Kingdom.
Phillips supports many charitable causes. In 2003, she and her mother took part in the first UK double ship-naming ceremony in Southampton. The Princess Royal named the P&O Cruises liner Oceana, and Phillips named its sister ship Adonia.
She frequently attends various events for charity and has taken to supporting certain causes herself, mainly for spinal injuries, equestrian charities and children's causes. In 2005, she auctioned one of her evening gowns (worn at the London premiere of the film Seabiscuit) to raise money for tsunami relief. She also undertook a visit to New Zealand in her role as patron of The Catwalk Trust. From 1998 to 2005, she served as the president of Club 16-24, a group which encourages young people to take an interest in racing. She is linked to INSPIRE, the Salisbury based medical research charity which helps to improve the quality of life of people with spinal cord injuries, and Sargent Cancer Care for Children, the UK's leading children's cancer charity.
She appears at events for The Caudwell Charitable Trust, which is targeted at children with special needs, disabilities and serious illnesses. In 2006, she took part in a special charity day for Cantor Index, whose staff were killed in the 11 September 2001 attacks. In 2007, she became patron of the Mark Davies Injured Riders Fund.[28] To help with Sport Relief 2008, she posed for her first official royal portrait by artist Jack Vettriano.[29] In 2009, she attended a celebrity poker tournament in Monaco in aid of Darfur, Sudan.[30] In September 2010, she attended the 2012 London Olympic Ball alongside cousin Prince Harry of Wales. In October of the same year she attended another celebrity poker tournament, this time in London, in aid of Cancer Research UK, of which she is Royal Patron. In 2011 she auctioned another evening gown, this time in aide of the Christchurch, New Zealand appeal, with the gown raising £22,000. In 2012 she attended various events marking her grandmother's Diamond Jubilee, although she missed the flotilla due to her commitments with the 2012 Olympics. In 2013, she visited the Stroud Maternity Ward, where she gave birth in 2014, to celebrate their 60th anniversary. In the same year she attended the Chelsea Flower Show alongside her grandmother The Queen. In 2014, Zara lent her support to the #bringbackourgirls campaign that United States First Lady Michelle Obama started.
In 2009, it was announced that Phillips would be designing her own range of equestrian clothing for Musto Outdoor Clothing.[31][32] The range is named ZP176 after the team number Zara was given when she first represented her country. The range was officially launched in July 2010.[33]

Abu Sayyaf attack in southern Philippines leaves 7 soldiers dead
Published on Jun 19, 2014 7:27 PM
ZAMBOANGA, Philippines (AFP) - Muslim extremists with links to the Al-Qaeda network killed seven soldiers and left 13 others wounded in an attack in the lawless southern Philippines on Thursday, the military said.
Members of the Abu Sayyaf group fired on the soldiers in the heavily forested island of Jolo shortly after dawn, killing an officer, a military statement said.
Ten minutes later, six more soldiers were killed and 13 were wounded when the Abu Sayyaf fighters launched a mortar shell at them, the statement added.
"The remaining troops are still in the area of operations while the casualties were evacuated," the statement said.

If you could be one of the very first people to travel to and live on Mars, would you do it?Now, imagine that you could never come back. Would you still do it?It might sound like science fiction, but this is the very real proposition being made by Mars One, a private firm based in the Netherlands that is organizing the first manned flight to Mars, set to depart in 2023. To repeat: not a joke.What's more, you are welcome to submit your application. In fact, more than 78,000 people already have and you can peruse videos sent by many applicants here. (A one-minute video is required as part of the application.) These are people who are willing – or at least believe they are willing – to give up life on Earth to be a pioneer on the Mars frontier.The GoodIt's a serious undertaking, to say the least, and understanding the attraction is simple: You will be among the first humans ever in the history of the species to establish a colony on an alien planet. Your name will be in the history books as long as the light of humankind continues to shine, and it won't be a footnote, either. It will be huge. Schools, bridges and buildings will bear your name.And, you'll be famous, because Mars One intends to document and broadcast your life to Earthlings as a way to fund your continued support on Mars. It's a bit terrifying to think of a "Real World: Mars" scenario unfolding in outer space, but we're guessing the eight years of training prior to launch and the rigorous selection process (which will involve an audience vote in Selection Round 3), should help minimize that possibility.The BadThe downsides, though, are significant and permanent. As CEO Bas Lansdorp reminds prospective applicants, there is no birdsong on Mars. That's his way of saying most of the things you hold dear about Earth will simply not be present on the Red Planet. It's a chilling fact that's hard to imagine. Optimists will say, "Yeah, but we'll still have the Internet!" The more circumspect among us will note, however, that the Internet is truly a poor substitute for reality.Think about it. No more long walks to … anywhere. No more trips to the zoo. No more forests. No more beaches. No more seasons. No more fresh air. Hell, no more air. Period.The UglyYou will die on Mars surrounded by your Martian family, who will not be the family who raised you and loved you on Earth. That is the easiest and least sugar-coated way to summarize the immense sacrifice you will have to make. It doesn't get any more intense than that.So! What do you think? Would you go to Mars? ATGStores.com welcomes you to share your thoughts on this groundbreaking endeavor.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
"I Get a Kick out of You" is a song by Cole Porter, which was first sung in the 1934 Broadway musical Anything Goes, and then in the 1936 film of the show.
Originally sung by Ethel Merman, it has been covered by dozens of prominent performers, most famously Frank Sinatra. Performer Gary Shearston revived the song in a pensive pop-rock arrangement, peaking at #7 in the UK charts, 1974.
The lyrics were first altered shortly after being written. The last verse originally went as follows:
After the 1932 Lindbergh kidnapping,[1] Porter changed the second and third lines to:
In the 1936 movie version, alternative lyrics in the second verse were provided to replace a reference to the drug cocaine, which was not allowed by Hollywood's Production Code of 1934.
The original verse goes as follows:
Porter changed the first line to:
Sinatra recorded both pre-Code and post-Code versions (with and without the cocaine reference): the first in 1953[2] and the second in 1962. On a recording live in Paris in 1962, Sinatra sings the altered version with the first line as Some like the perfume from Spain. Other Porter-approved substitutions include "whiff of Guerlain." There is also a version with Some like the bop-type refrain[3] on Sinatra and Swingin' Brass
All three of the above alternatives are mentioned in the liner notes to Joan Morris and William Bolcom's CD, Night and Day; on the recording, Morris sings the original second verse.
An excerpt from the song was featured in a sketch on The Kids in the Hall, in which a lounge singer performs the song but obliviously mispronounces the lyrics.
The popular children's television show "Sesame Street" once did a parody of this song about the letter U performed by Ethel Mermaid, a fishy spoof of Ethel Merman. In the song, Ethel sings about how none of the other letters in the alphabet give her more joy than the letter U, backed up by a school of fish. A shark gets too close to her while she sings and is continuously smacked away by her tail.
The 1974 film Blazing Saddles features the song (called, "I Get No Kick from Champagne") led by Bart (Cleavon Little) and his fellow railroad workers at the request of Lyle (Burton Gilliam) for a work song, but Lyle interrupts and suggests that "Camptown Races" is a better work song.

American Water Shares Tips For Fire Prevention Week
In honor of Fire Prevention Week, October 7-13, 2012, American Water (NYSE: AWK), the nation's largest publicly traded water and wastewater utility, is reminding consumers about the importance of water infrastructure for fire protection, and providing tips for helping to maintain hydrants.
According to FEMA, fire-related deaths have dropped significantly, from about 12,000 in 1974 to 3,245 in 2006, and the number continues to decrease. Water infrastructure plays a critical role, for example, the increasing nationwide availability of highly pressurized hydrants allows emergency workers to extinguish blazes with increasing speed and effectiveness.
"American Water invests $800 million to $1 billion annually to make infrastructure improvements that benefit its customers, including needed upgrades to hydrants, booster stations and other systems that are critical to fire protection," said Walter Lynch, American Water's president and chief operating officer of regulated operations. "Making investments into well-maintained water systems helps firefighters to continue protecting the health and safety of our communities."
Lynch noted that consumers play an important role in this effort, as a portion of their water bills goes toward these critical investments to keep their community's infrastructure strong.
Consumers can also play a role in helping to keep fire hydrants dependable and in good working order through the following tips:- Keep fire hydrants clear of debris. Although they're usually located curbside, avoid parking trash bags and recycling buckets too close.
- Give hydrants breathing room. Don't plant flowers or shrubs next them.
- Mow around fire hydrants. If weeds or grass are enveloping them, make sure to trim around them during yard work.
- Shovel the snow and ice around hydrants. A municipal employee might be along to do that at some point, but why wait until it's too late?
- If a fire hydrant appears damaged, is overflowing or the snow flag is missing, don't assume the authorities know about it. Report the situation, including the hydrant's location, to the local fire department immediately.
- For your safety and that of others, never park in front of or within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, even just for a few minutes.

Numerology Meanings for Number 20 denote the sound of kettle drums.
If your number is 20, a war monger may hide inside your personality.
At another extreme, you can be a Mahatma. It signifies extremes in both Sacrifice and Revenge.
Numerology number meanings for 20 stem from No. 2 and Zero. Number 2 denotes Moon. Zero refers to infinity. Lord Krishna says in Srimad Bagavat Gita, that Moon nourishes lives by its cool vibrations. BG.Ch.15.Verse 13.
As Krishna said, Numerology Meanings for 20 signify the Benevolence of Moon, and the limitlessness of Zero. You attract the world by your Cause and Deeds. You have the potential to set examples like Mahatma Gandhi.
Numerology Number Meanings for 20 also suggest War and Revolution as signified by the sound of Kettle Drums. When these noble qualities are sacrificed for selfish ends, it makes you a Vicious Rebel or a Renegade.
Name Numerology for 20 conveys that you will take up arms to achieve your ends. You do not care if the innocent succumb to your violence and Revenge, and if the old, sick, and the kids perish in the Bloody Carnage.
Numerology Number Meanings for 20 also signify poisoning en masse. When 20 is your number, you can acquire special powers to detoxify the effects of poisoning. You can neutralize poisons and save snake bite victims.
Numerology Meanings for No. 20 also signify a Big Call from a Savior or Saint. It has the powers to arouse a country or a Big Nation. It can be a call for Spiritual Upheaval, Political Revolution, or Economic Reform.
Numerology Number Meanings for 20 Confirm your Capability to Arouse the Asleep, and Achieve your Goals. But only when you are unselfish! If you direct your powers for selfish ends, you end up with Ignominious Defeats.
The German Dictator Hitler was born on 20-4-1889. His popular name Hitler measures and vibrates in No. 20. He was well known as Hitler. He was born on the 20th. This shows that 20 can produce a Hitler, or Mahatma Gandhi.
Numerology Meanings for 20 conclude that it is not a safe Name Number. It is afflicted by 9 and 8, if either is your day or life number. It makes you sign wrong deals, accept dubious contracts, and cause your own downfall.
Take care not to let it continue, when your wife or business partner has 9 or 8 as their day, life, or name numbers. They will surely turn against you. If it happens, you have no other go, except to have their names changed.
Numerology meanings for 20 indicate no numerology compatibility with Number 9, or 8. An initial or a component word in your name with any of these is evil. If it occurs, you have to perform a numerology correction.
If your partner has No. 9, or 8, in his name or birth numbers, you have to remove him from business, or change his name with perfect numerology compatibility. You have to get it done in a new favorable name number.
If your name, or name number is unlucky, change it at once. Take help from an expert who knows bioenergetics, Lecher Antenna, and Horary Astrology. He will find and finalize your name in your ideal name number.
If you are not happy with the name of your wife or partner, you can approach Mr. kannan M, through the contact page. He will solve your problems by name change with lucky Personal and Business Names!.

Cash and saris could well be passé. With water being the most precious commodity this summer, thanks to plummeting storage in the Krishnaraja Sagar (KRS) and Kabini dams from where water is pumped to the city, our politicians know they have hit pay dirt.
Although there's nothing new in elected representatives arranging free water supply (with their images, the party symbol and an appeal seeking votes plastered on the tankers, of course), this time sitting MLAs and candidates from across political parties are mainly concentrating on the new pockets of the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) limits. Apart from supplying water in tankers sporting party posters, a new gimmick adopted by the candidates is promising voters a Cauvery water connection for free.
Not keen to pay
As residents of most of the new areas that were under the erstwhile city municipal councils (CMCs) continue to get free borewell supply, not many are keen on getting a Cauvery water connection as they not only have to pay for the meter installation but also the water bills. Of the targeted 2.2 lakh new consumers, the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) has, since November (when the Cauvery IV Stage Phase II was commissioned), got only 62,000 new consumers.
A few candidates, including some sitting MLAs, especially in east and north Bangalore, are said to be promising voters in their constituencies with Cauvery water connections if they win. Coincidentally, the number of people taking BWSSB connections has hit the lowest figure in the last 15 days.
"An average of 8,000 people have been taking metered connections every month since October. But this month, from April 1 till date, only 2,300 people have taken connections. We are also surprised," said a top BWSSB official.
Hmm, maybe…
Sources said that people appear to be taking the candidates' promise seriously. "We have to pay Rs. 10,100 for a metered connection. This includes Rs. 8,000 Greater Bangalore Water and Sanitation Project (GBWASP) charges. We will wait and see if these politicians will keep their promise," said Allauddin Basha, a resident of Islampur near HAL 2 stage.
Similarly, Anjamani, a resident of Muniswamy Gowda Layout in Byatarayanapura, said that she was happy that there would soon be an end to her ordeal of fetching water from a borewell located at a distance. "Pipe hakidare; meter election addamele haktare ante (They have laid the pipelines and the meter will be installed after the elections)," said Ms. Anjamani, who is a domestic help.
A worker affiliated to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party confessed that this was the safest way of wooing voters. "As we are actually not paying anything to the voter, there are no chances of attracting the Election Commission's wrath for violating the code of conduct," he added cheerfully.
Supply peters out
Meanwhile, residents of areas such as G.M. Palya and Jeevan Bima Nagar were pleasantly surprised over sudden bountiful supply of water in the first week of April. Clearly it was too good to last and it mysteriously went back to its usual erratic mode soon after the model code of conduct came into force.
BWSSB officials said that they had ensured uninterrupted supply of water for Ugadi festival. "This has nothing to do with the elections," one said.

The National Park Service says burglars stole buffalo hides and historical weapons from two historic sites in southeastern Colorado.
Spokesman Rick Wallner says thieves broke locks at Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site near La Junta this week and stole weapons valued at $9,000.
The Park Service says cash and bison hides were stolen from the Boggsville Historic Site south of Las Animas earlier in the week.
Investigators say that in their apparent haste to flee, the perpetrators of the Bent's Old Fort burglary left behind evidence. The Denver Post says that the thefts are being investigated by the Otero County Sheriff's Office and the National Park Service Law Enforcement branch.

Does the talk of resumption of unutilised government land running into thousands of acres from companies and private developers lack conviction?
Barring few instances where the government issued orders cancelling over 10,000 acres of land given to Brahmani Industries Ltd., cancellation of land in Bayyaram for iron ore mining and cancellation of over 450 acres of land allotted to Economic City in Medak district, the State has been dragging its feet.
"There was an inordinate delay in claiming back the land even years after issuing notices and cancellation of MoUs," sources in Revenue Department said. The MoU with Brahmani Industries was cancelled in May 2012 before the G.O. on cancellation of land was issued in April last week this year.
Notices had been given to promoters of Lepakshi Knowledge Hub for resumption of 8,800 acres of land allotted for the project in Anantapur and to Indu Tech Zone and Star Gaze which were allotted 250 acres each in Shamshabad to cite a few cases. Yet the departments concerned, be it Department of Industries and Commerce and Information and Technology had not been pushing the cases with the government for resumption of land, sources added.
Official sources said that even the AP Industrial and Infrastructure Corporation, which had served notices to 1,773 firms for their failure to fulfil their commitment to set up units within the agreed timelines, could recover only 3,000 acres out of the 18,000 acres that had to be resumed.
The process to take back unutilised land is extremely slow that does not generate confidence among the public nor instil fear among land allottees, who in some cases deviate from the MoUs and raise bank loans by mortgaging the land, as found in Lepakshi's case. Some of the expensive land in and around Ranga Reddy district, running into thousands of acres, were locked in unproductive deals while depriving companies and industries genuinely interested in setting up units of land, official sources said.
Even in the case of the controversial VANPIC which was allotted 26,000 acres of land, including private land in Guntur and Prakasam districts, the issue was referred for legal opinion and subsequently a committee was formed an year ago with no decision so far.
