Jaycor's electrocuting water cannon falls under the black and moldy umbrella of nonlethal weapons technology, once again in the national security spotlight courtesy of a recent National Academy of Science report recommending more of it. Jaycor reports on such applications are the first two footnotes in the document of blighted science.
The aqueous electrocutor sprays a "high-pressure saline solution with additives" mixed in to maximize range in putting down that troublesome rabble. "[Debilitating] but not lethal shocks" move through the water jet, according to Jaycor's online brochure. The company hints the voltage can be turned up "to deliver potent electrical shocks to equipment as well as individuals."
More conventional shockers sometimes leave hooks embedded in victims. With the electrical supersoaker, there's no need for surgery to take them out. Plus you can hit more people at once.
Jaycor certainly has expertise in this area. It has manufactured something called the Sticky Shocker, a technological annoyance that looks like the giant cocklebur from hell. It's designed to lodge on people with "tenacious glue" and barbs in order to dispense stunning volts.
Although the latest hazard to humanity hasn't been tested on live subjects, Jaycor material claims it is voltage-regulated according to some Underwriters Laboratories standard of acceptable partial electrocution. One can only wonder at the way such a remarkable standard was arrived atperhaps by dropping hair dryers or radios into bathtubs occupied by volunteers?
It is patently obvious that a vehicle-mounted shocking water hose is an atrocious mechanism that would instantly doom the career of anyone who ordered its use on American streets. As with most nonlethal wonder weapons, there would simply be no way to make it look merciful on the evening news.
Sales to overseas tyrant-allies might be an option, though. Penn State University's Applied Research Laboratory runs an odious Web site devoted to shilling for nonlethal weapons, a function it claims is part of a trusty service to the military and public-at-large. The school suggests various technical means for putting down crowds, and provides a convenient vendor link to the Jaycor electrocutor along with other delivery systems for pain and discomfort.
"Penn State Applied Research Laboratory can assist you in developing a policy plan for using crowd control," advertises the school brightly. Strategies for electrical excruciations, fresh on demand from the academy.

Global Mercury Study Shows Twice the Pollution From Burning Products
"Air releases of mercury from products are much more significant than previously suspected," said
Mercury is a dangerous neurotoxin that can make its way up the food chain into humans, and poses an increased exposure risk to developing fetuses and young children. The main burning processes investigated in the report were medical waste incineration, municipal and hazardous waste incineration, municipal wastewater sludge incineration, and landfill fires and open burning.
Similar studies have estimated mercury releases to air from the combustion of products containing mercury. However, these studies did not look carefully at the substantial emissions contributed by landfill fires and open burning of domestic waste.
"We urge countries to take immediate steps to stop incineration as a method of waste disposal, including mercury burning practices, and move expeditiously towards safe, just, sustainable and more environmentally sound alternatives," said
Mercury is a persistent, bioaccumulative transboundary pollutant that contaminates our air, soil, water and fish. Because of this potential for global contamination, mercury pollution requires a coordinated international response.
The report recommends that, at upcoming mid-February meeting in
In the interim period before such an instrument becomes effective, the report recommends that UNEP promote responsibility for the awareness-raising, analytical, technical and legal support activities necessary to encourage manufacturers of mercury-added products, and countries where such manufacturers are located, to identify and implement the actions.

BOISE -- Anni Jack and her family have lived on Gloucester Street in Boise for 8 years. On Sunday she says the trickling of water caught her attention while she was working in the home's backyard.
We were up on our deck, actually, and we heard what sounded like a babbling brook, Jack said.
After seeing water trickle down the hillside -- apparently coming from the New York Canal -- her husband climbed a nearby hill to investigate.
So he hiked up there, and he sees a hole, and water is just like a garden hose that's turned on, Jack described.
Sure enough, there was a leak in the canal that runs right above the couple's property.
Christopher Beardsley is with the Bureau of Reclamation. He says the bureau owns the canal, and once government officials heard there was a leak, they began draining water immediately.
We won't let water into that canal until it's safe to do so, Beardsley told KTVB on Monday.
However, a day without water is a day without irrigation for farmers' crops.
Well it's the New York Canal, it's the main artery to the biggest part of the Treasure Valley, said Boise Project Board of Control manager Tim Page. I mean, we serve about 165,000 acres.
The Board of Control maintains the canal, and they have ditch riders constantly patrolling the canal making sure all parts are in working order.
Anytime there is water coming from the canal we get concerned, said Page.
So the board acted fast too.
The best option was the shut the water off to the canal so (we) could get to the bottom of the canal to fix the problem, explains Page.
By Monday afternoon, workers were still waiting for the water to drain. However, it is important to note they did stop the leak Sunday by hauling in dirt and clogging the hole.
The Jack family and the rest of those living in the neighborhood know how concerning a leaking canal is.
Two years ago -- a block up -- that is where the water incident happened, recalls Jack.
The incident she's talking about happened roughly two years ago just one block away from her house on South Minuteman Way.
The incident caused flooded basements and yards, giving a handful of homeowner's water damage. Some of those homeowners suspected the water was due to a leak coming from the nearby New York Canal.
While there was never a definite answer to that, the Bureau of Reclamation did test the water and the Board of Control installed pumps and drains to ensure no more flooding would take place.
The deal is resolved, yes, said Page.
Still the residents living below the New York Canal remain leery of this aging infrastructure. Page said the canal was built in the early 1900 s.
People were in our backyards yesterday (Sunday), saying they've lived here and this is the third the fourth time that this has happened, said Jacks. I think just be observant if you live near the canal.
Page with the Board of Control said, his crew is observant too.
I mean we want to protect everyone involved, and that is our job and that is what we do, he said.
Once the canal is fully drained, the Board of Control will investigate how the leak happened, and then complete a more permanent fix before they restore water flow.

Should Bands Play Corporate-Sponsored Shows?
Are you a musician? Is your group having issues? Ask Fan Landers! Critic Jessica Hopper has played in and managed bands, toured internationally, booked shows, produced records, worked as a publicist and is the author of The Girls' Guide to Rocking, a how-to for teen ladies. She is here to help you stop doing it wrong. Send your problems to her -- confidentiality is assured, unless you want to use your drama as a ticket to Internet microfame.
Dear Fan,
My band's stuck in the middle of a debate and I hope you can help us. Our band has been around for a few years, and had a pretty run-of-the-mill existence in the scene. We have an audience, but it's not huge. Every once in awhile we get a gig that covers a few cases of beer and a coupla months of the band's van insurance. It would be nice to make some money, that part we can all agree on. We got offered a gig playing a sponsored show. Everything about it's different than a regular show--there's a product car in the "venue," only [redacted] will be served, the show's happening in a place that isn't a club, the other bands are corny and not from our scene. I say we don't need the money that bad. The rest of the band says it's not big deal and we should do it, especially since it could open the door to doing more of these easy money shows. What say you?

Hey guys!
Will spring break be overwith by next weekend?
We're going Friday afternoon/night and all Saturday.
Hey guys!
Will spring break be overwith by next weekend?
We're going Friday afternoon/night and all Saturday.
I don't think so. My daughter is out of school and my friend is out of college all last week and this week....that weekend being the last weekend, but schools go out on break at different times.
use fastpass and when we stay the night we take a long afternoon break back in the room to escape from the crowds.
Thanks Scuba<3.
I just noticed that there is a thread called "When will it be busy at Disneyland in 2008?". Could I get a Mod to move this thread into that one? Thanks and sorry for the extra work.
Will all the school's Spring Breaks be over by the first week of April? I am hoping so, cause we will be there 4/4-4/10. I am hoping it quiets down before the big rush starts. Does anyone know when Fantasmic starts up again? I am curious as that will bring in crowds at night.
Thanks for any answers!
I believe fantasmic is already back up. The other factor bringing in crowds in is the 2fer. DCA was more crowded than I have ever seen ti last Saturday. Dl was still manageable though.
If you're going to be there multiple days you will have plenty of time to see and do everyhting even with crowds.

Lawmakers seek in-state tuition rates for veterans
Tuesday - 2/4/2014, 7:12am EST
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The House overwhelmingly passed legislation Monday that would require public universities around the country to charge veterans in-state tuition rates or face financial penalty.
Congress intended for veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan era to go to college for free at the public school of their choice. And for most, that's the case.
But, on occasion, veterans end up living in a new state once their service has ended. Then, they find that the federal government's reimbursement to colleges won't fully cover the higher tuition rates that generally apply to students who come in from out of state.
"There are many veterans through no fault of their own who are forced to pay exorbitant tuition rates to schools simply because of the transit nature of their military service," said Rep. Jeff Miller, the Republican chairman of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs.
About half the states already have waivers in place designed to attract veterans to attend their public universities. Lawmakers and veterans groups are pushing for a national approach.
Budget scorekeepers estimate the provision would affect about 3,800 veterans initially and save the federal government about $139 million over the next decade. The bill passed by a vote of 390-0.
Some have complained that Congress is putting in place another unfunded federal mandate. When the bill came up before a congressional subcommittee last year, the American Association of State Colleges and Universities sad that establishing tuition policy is a clear state right. "This bill screams of government overreach," the association said at the time.
But the arguments from veterans groups won out. The groups said military veterans are the only Americans that sometimes cannot physically be present in a state long enough to satisfy residency requirements simply because they were serving their country.
In all, 20 states already have laws designed to help veterans get the in-state rate. Another 12 have legislation pending. Eight more have individual schools or school systems that provide veterans with waivers so they can get the in-state tuition rate, according to Student Veterans of America, an advocacy group.
The bill stipulates that the in-state tuition requirement would only apply to veterans who enroll within three years of leaving the service.
The requirement has broad support in the Senate as well, but it's included in much broader veterans legislation that some Republicans say may be too sweeping and expensive.
The House bill passed on Monday contains other provisions that affect the Department of Veterans Affairs, including eliminating performance bonuses for the department's senior executive staff through 2018.
"This money would be better spent resolving the disability claims backlog," said Rep. Keith Rothfus, R-Penn.

First of all, I was very surprised when the parts arrived the very ext day. Before removing anything, I had to defrost the refrigerator and freezer with hot water which took the most time. Removing the Defrost Thermostat was the hardest part due to its self locking mechanism and its tight location. Installation of the new one was a snap. Removal and installation of the Defrost Heater Harness was very easy. Instructions were simple and easy to follow. Now my refrigerator and freezer both work great.

The REAL 'Stuff ___ People Like'
Read the full blog post here:
We selected 526,000 OkCupid users at random and divided them into groups by their (self-stated) race. We then took all these people's profile essays (280 million words in total!) and isolated the words and phrases that made each racial group's essays statistically distinct from the others'.
Using this kind of analysis, we were able find the interests, hobbies, tastes, and self-descriptions that are specially important to each racial group, as determined by the words of the group itself. The information in this article is not our opinion. It's data, aggregated from the essays of half a million real people.

Sundown: Blogger Expected More 'Inglourious' Kvetching
Praise, slander, and a grand slam decade
• A Beliefnet blogger wonders why he's "not reading or hearing more from the Jewish community about the inglorious representation" of Jews in Tarantino's latest film. [Beliefnet]
• The obvious answer: he's not paying attention. Besides our own takedown, the Los Angeles Times rounds up a plethora of disturbed Jewish reactions to Inglourious Basterds, and Slate's culture gabfest compares Tarantino to T.S. Eliot, in that "they're both idiots when it comes to Jews." [Slate]
• Martin Abramowitz, founder of Jewish Major Leaguers, Inc., says this has been the tribe's best-ever decade on the diamond, and that "some combination of pride and performance is bringing Jewish baseball to a new level of attention in America." [Jewish Ledger]
• Two Jewish schools in Argentina are being touted as role models for Jewish eduction. Their innovation? Making the schools good. [JTA]
• In Florida, however, a public school is facing its own religious problems: kids keep coming to school dressed as billboards for the ironically named Christian organization Dove World Outreach, in t-shirts that say "Islam is of the Devil." [Gainesville Sun]

Barring one voter, 337 electors today cast their votes in repolling at Tonk-Swaimadhopur Lok Sabha seat in Rajasthan.
There were 338 electors at booth number 208, including 334 from Niwai town, and four voters having Election Duty Certificate (EDC). Only one voter did not turn up for polling, a CEO spokesman said here.
The EC had ordered a repoll there following reports of bogus voting after five seats, including Tonk-Sawaimadhopur constituency, went for polls in second and last phase of elections in the state on April 24.
Polling in 20 out of total 25 LS constituencies in the state was held on April 17. The average polling in two phases of polls was 63.03%.

NORFOLK, VA -- Memorial Day weekend was more than a time to honor our military and enjoy some springtime celebrating. It also provided an opportunity for parents to help ensure their childrens' safety.
The Norfolk Police Department, along with Sheriff's Deputy volunteers and the Fraternal Order of Police, set up shop outside Target on North Military Highway. The idea was to get children's vital statistics on record in the event of a tragedy or a seperation.
Julie Dye was there with her two young sons Ronan and Decklan.
'Especially with the fact that my husband and I are both active duty military, relatives may have to take care of our kids, so having them with their information on file would really help,' said Dye - a military parent.
Just this week, a Blair Middle School student has gone missing and her mother is frantically getting the word out to find young CiCi.
'Oh it happens all the time and it's one of the worst calls a policeman gets. They hate a missing child call because you never know what's going to happen,' said Garth James with FOPAlliance 3.
Height and weight and fingerprints are all recorded. This program is sponsored by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. And this Child I-D kit also asks parents to go online and create an action plan - much like the one mother we spoke with already has in place.
'They know if something happens at home if something happens to me or my partne,r that they call 9-1-1,' said parent Sherri Niedholdt. 'They already know the number and know what to say. They stay on the phone. So in emergency situaitons they know what to do,' she told us.

It bothered James Roche that his 39-year-old girlfriend had a past sexual relationship with 73-year-old Ronald Evans, according to state police.
They say a witness told them that Roche and his girlfriend, Holly Ann Crawford, argued often and that Roche threatened to kill Crawford's former lover dozens of times.
Roche made good on those threats Wednesday, using a shotgun to blast a hole in Evans' chest, and to kill Evans' son as well, police allege in criminal complaints released on Thursday.
Roche, 31, and Crawford, both of 71 Dobson Road in the Sweet Valley section of Ross Township, were charged on Wednesday with two counts of criminal homicide in the deaths of Evans and his son, Jeffrey Evans, 43.
According to criminal complaints, state police at Shickshinny received a call from Crawford's mother, Moya Linde, at 12:40 p.m. Wednesday telling them that Crawford and Roche stole her car and her credit card and that they were on their way to kill Ronald Evans, after which they planned to flee to Philadelphia.
About 28 minutes later, police arrived at Evans' residence at 71 Sunset Lake Road in Hunlock Township and found Ronald Evans lying on his back on the rear deck, dead, with an apparent gunshot wound to his chest. Inside, they found Jeffery Evans face down, dead, in the hallway, with multiple gunshot wounds, court papers state.
Linde called state police again at 12:50 p.m. to tell them Crawford and Roche had returned and walked into the woods behind her house with a bottle of alcohol, Kool-Aid mix and a gun. The pair were spotted from a state police helicopter and taken into custody without incident. Police found a gun case containing a rifle, handgun and several knives nearby.
Friend's concerns
On Wednesday afternoon, Emory Kocher, of Kingston, sat in his minivan with his wife in the parking lot of Northwest Area Intermediate School, just down the road from the Evans residence, waiting to talk with state police.
Kocher told a reporter that Ronald "Barney" Evans was his best friend. He said he was anxious to learn what state police would tell him and was concerned about Evans because of recent threats he said Evans had received.
Informed that Evans and his son had been shot to death, Kocher and his wife broke into tears.
"The old man asked me to get him a gun the other day. He said the boyfriend threatened to shoot him. Barney said the guy put a gun to his head because (Evans) was seeing his girlfriend, Holly," Kocher said.
Police allegations
Later Wednesday, police interviewed an individual, unidentified in court papers, who told them Crawford began to date Roche about two years ago, and shortly after that, Crawford told Roche about her previous relationship with Evans.
The individual described the Crawford-Roche relationship as "tumultuous," characterized by numerous arguments during which Roche would bring up the past relationship with Evans, saying it was "upsetting to him," and threatening to go to Evans' home and kill him, adding that he would "take on Jeff (Evans) too."
The individual allegedly heard Roche and Crawford yelling about Evans on Monday, with Evans saying he was going to go kill Evans that night, with Crawford saying she would go with him, adding that Evans didn't deserve to live. They left and returned about an hour later, the individual told police.
The first individual and a second person told police that Crawford told them on Tuesday morning that she "blew a hole in Ronald and Jeff's head." Asked if she had remorse, she replied, "It was just like shooting a deer," the criminal complaints state.
Crime scene
Roche told police on Wednesday that he and Crawford went to the victims' home late Monday evening, Crawford knocked on the door off the back deck and Ronald Evans came out with a handgun and yelled at Roche to get off his property, court papers state.
Roche said he got out of the vehicle, took a rifle from the trunk, loaded it and shot multiple rounds at Evans, who fell to the ground. Roche said he approached the deck and found Jeffery Evans kneeling by his father and yelling, "You mother ******, you shot my father." Jeffery Evans got up and went inside, and Roche followed, shooting him in the back multiple times, court papers state.
Roche allegedly told police Crawford was in the kitchen at the time and that he took the handgun Evans had as well as a glass-encased knife set before he and Crawford fled, court papers state.
Crawford related a similar series of events to police during an interview, according to the court papers.
Criminal past
Crawford and Roche were arraigned before District Judge John Hasay late Wednesday night and, because bail is not an option in homicide cases, were jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility to await their preliminary hearings, scheduled for 10 a.m. May 7.
Hasay said it was likely the hearings would be continued because Crawford's and Roche's statements differed slightly and it was likely that conflict counsel would be called in.
Both defendants have criminal pasts. Crawford was found guilty of animal cruelty for docking the tails of kittens, piercing them and marketing them as "Gothic kittens" in 2009. She also has been arrested on charges of theft, burglary and possession of drug paraphernalia and had two drunk driving arrests in 2013, according to court records.
Roche had a warrant for his arrest after failing to respond to a summary citation for public drunkenness that alleged he walked down a road and through people's fields and properties, visibly intoxicated, carrying a rifle and alarming residents to the point that they called police on March 24.

Day 4 Tues
Day 4 Tues
Packed up and headed towards Riggins. I would bleed my clutch every evening and at lunch and in the mean time would not stop or if I dd would be on a downward hill side so I could coast and pop the bike into gear. Pretty much I would stay in 3 gear all the time and grunt around corners and slowly come to a stop and put it into neutral. I only used the clutch once in a while when needed but after about 5-10 pulls it would become useless. Enjoy.
Here is the route we took.
There was a fire I belive last year that roared through the area.
Even with my clutch about to fail had to stop and take the following movie of Tom coming up the road.
Click to see Movie
Here is Mike on Top off Sawmill PT
Came into Warren. Did not stop to take many pic's with the clutch acting up.
Mike's camera bit the dust so I let him use mine until he got another one. Mike is a great photographer as you can see from the rest of today pics.
I did not stop to take a look at the bus but it was an camper at one point.
Heading down to Riggins Hot Springs the road just went straigt down the valley. Awesome fun.
And now the curvy downward ride
Ran out of fuel with 30 miles to go to Riggins. Dumped my Tourtech fuel jugs in.
Here is a
movie clip
Mike took of me starting my bike. This was the norm of the trip.
French Creek
Next set of pic is before Salmon River.
Here is Tom going across Salmon River
Here is a
movie of Marty
going across the bridge
Stopped in Riggins for lunch fuel and spirits.
Instead of bombing up Hwy 95 to Orfino we decided to detour off of Slate Rd and camp in the hills for the night. Then make our way to the KTM shop first thing in the morning.
Slate Road had some nice scenary along the way.
Found this nice campground at Fish Creek. This was one of our early stops around 4:00 most other time it was 6-7PM It was nice to just sit around and relax.
Tom and Mike were telling me that a
squirrel in my bike
and I thought they were pulling my leg.
Here is what happened when I started the bike.
Nope a chipmunk.
We took apart everything on the clutch handle to see were it was leaking and could not tell where. Put things back together and the clutch was feeling pretty good even after 10-20 squeezes. Still decided to head to the KTM in the morning to get the new clutch piston
Ended the day with 143 miles 17mph ave in 8hrs 23 min.

Here's something you don't see every day
Mar 1, 2010, 12:10 PM EDT
Having Adam Dunn practice bunting is like having a navy captain practice scuttling a ship. I mean, sure, it's probably useful that he knows how to do it, but if you ever see him actually using the skill, you're pretty much screwed anyway.
- Andrew - Mar 1, 2010 at 12:23 PM
I never want to see that again..
- Jonny5 - Mar 1, 2010 at 12:25 PM
That's just as silly as having a guy built like a defensive lineman in the NFL play outfield. Oh wait, they did that too with Adam last season. I still giggle over that btw…… To see him chase the ball like he did, just to come up short anyway was priceless!!!! He's really a DH stuck in the NL….. Such a shame…. Well I'd say if they start him anywhere other than first base they're idiots!!!
- Dan - Mar 1, 2010 at 12:31 PM
I didn't read the article, but if he's practicing so he can beat the shift and keep the defense aligned straight away than it makes sense.
- dchase - Mar 1, 2010 at 12:39 PM
How many times have we seen a guy robbed of hits due to the shift, when a bunt down the left field line could have easily been a double? Carlos Pena is the only guy I have seen beat the shift this way, and it makes so much sense I can't understand why more lefties don't work on it. Let's say the Nats are down 2 runs in the bottom of the ninth with nobody on base. Even if Dunn hits one out, they are still behind, so the value of simply getting on base exceeds the value of trying for a HR (considering the increased likelihood of making an out).
You hear that Mark Teixeira?
- Mr. Furioius - Mar 1, 2010 at 1:02 PM
It would be interesting to do the math on whether the occasional bunt from guys against whom teams employ the shift is worthwhile. That is, if the one base they gain by that bunt outweighs a quarter of their HR/AB ratio. My guess is that it would be, if used sparingly.
- Jamie - Mar 1, 2010 at 1:05 PM
And he really only needs to pull it off once or twice in April to keep defenses honest the rest of the season. I say try it.
- GimmeSomeSteel - Mar 1, 2010 at 1:11 PM
I saw Griffey do this a few times when he was with Cincinnati, mostly when he was leading off an inning. He told a guy I know in the Reds' front office, "It takes less time than working a walk, and it's easier."
- Gee thanks! - Mar 1, 2010 at 1:22 PM
"Let's say the Nats are down 2 runs in the bottom of the ninth with nobody on base. Even if Dunn hits one out, they are still behind, so the value of simply getting on base exceeds the value of trying for a HR (considering the increased likelihood of making an out)."
Thanks for this stunning analysis.
- JBerardi - Mar 1, 2010 at 1:51 PM
Ted Williams sez: Yeah, you could bunt to beat the shift… if you're 13 year old pre-pubescent girl. Swing for the fences, Adam.
- Grant - Mar 1, 2010 at 3:59 PM
I think "dchase" is an alias of Joe Morgan's…
- scatterbrian - Mar 1, 2010 at 4:19 PM

This restaurant is focussing on wine - and we were looking for food. Nevertheless we had a nice meal although the menu was not too extensive.
The view of the town/sea was incredible!!
Though a bit challenging to get to (one way streets around old castle walls), the food, views, and friendly staff make it a worthwhile effort.
Fried olives stuffed with meat were delicious. The ravioli were light and well done. Gnocchetti with vegetables were good, but a bit heavy.
Wine selections good, especially locals.

Something is lost when tennis is televised. The blocky, overhead vantage favored by networks compresses the court and caricatures its occupants. The ball becomes a blur of fuzz and neon, often shot in histrionic slow-mo. Reduced to a series of zoom-ins and zoom-outs, the game congeals into a mass of grunts, moans, and commercials. Well-executed prose, by contrast, amplifies tennis's inherent drama, probes its psychic interior, and reveals its resonances beyond the court's 2,800-odd square feet. The following texts play with tennis in this expanded verbal field, exploiting those techniques of deceleration and dilation at which the written word remains best.

Vermont's unemployment rate in November — the most recent month for which state-by-state data is available — was 6.4 percent. The national unemployment rate in November was 10 percent, and only five states had lower unemployment rates than Vermont's. The Green Mountain State's unemployment rate peaked in May 2009, at just over 7 percent, and slowly declined to 6.4 percent over the next six months. Maine was the only other state in the nation to see a decline in unemployment during this period, when national unemployment climbed from 9.4 to 10 percent.

This decade began with snow as nice as anything Addison County has enjoyed in the past few years. (I'm speaking, of course, to those like me who enjoy the white stuff.) We had such deep, light, fluffy covering that it was difficult for my wife and I not just to walk out into the woods every morning on our snowshoes, no matter how much work was beckoning to us.

Fire Fighters' Union Votes
By John Durkee
Tulsa, OK – There will be no lay-offs in the Tulsa Fire Department. While not thrilled with the idea, the Tulsa Fire Fighters Union membership voted to accept eight furlough days rather than have a personnel cut-back.
As City revenue continues to drop, Tulsa's new budget calls for workers to be off---without pay-- for eight days during the year. Had fire fighters not agreed to accept the furlough days, the rank and file would have been reduced by20-to-30 fire fighters.

Inflation cannot be controlled without sacrificing growth, says D. Subba Rao
Reserve Bank of India Governor, Duvvuri Subba Rao on Tuesday said that inflation could not be controlled without sacrificing growth and stressed that the Central Bank must be sensitive to the silent voice of millions of poor while deciding on interest rates.
Delivering a memorial lecture on "Reserve Bank of India—making a difference in everyday life" organised to mark the fifth death anniversary of former IAS officer, K. Obayya, he referred to the demand of corporates to reduce high interest rates and to the criticism that RBI's tightening did not reduce inflation but ended up stifling growth.
He pointed out that short-term sacrifice of growth was some price to pay for bringing inflation down so that in medium term the growth was secure.
Financial crisis
Dr. Subba Rao said that a repeat of the 1991-type of financial crisis was highly improbable although the fiscal deficit was similar to that period and current account deficit likely to be higher.
The economy was much larger and different today and the exchange rate was market driven.
The country's financial markets were resilient, robust and more sophisticated now.
In a bid to tackle the problem of fake currency, he said the RBI was setting another plant in Mysore to make security paper for printing currency. He said that arresting Rupee's depreciation was also not so straight-forward as RBI would have to sell dollars.
Dr. Subba Rao and several other IAS officers, including former Chief Secretary K. Madhava Rao and T.L. Shankar paid glowing tributes to Obayya.

"Harmful, ground-level ozone is formed when chemicals found in vehicle exhaust and other sources combine with sunlight and heat," said Margo Richards, TxDOT Travel Information Division director. "The good news is that all drivers can make a difference in our air quality. Simple steps such as checking your tire pressure and getting your car tuned up on schedule can reduce tailpipe emissions, improve fuel economy and save drivers money at the pump."
If you keep the correct pressure in your tires, you can help keep the air clean and save about $85 a year in gas. Drive Clean Across Texas also warns that driving a car in need of maintenance can add $120 to annual gas spending.
For more tips on keeping the air clean and saving money on gas, visit the Drive Clean Across Texas website at drivecleanacrosstexas.org. Visitors also can register online for a chance to win a low-emission, gas-saving Ford Fusion Hybrid car sponsored by the Dallas Cowboys. The deadline for entering is Sept. 15, 2013. The winner will be announced at Cowboys Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 6.

Hardly a fortnight has passed after the grand closure of Dasara celebrations, and the city is once again abuzz with activity. With only a few days left for Diwali, stores are jam-packed, with people on the hunt for something new. And this does not mean just the shops on streets. Customers have become more net savvy and are purchasing products on the Internet. Online jewellery stores, in particular, are making good business this season.
"I wanted to gift a pair of pearl ear rings for my wife. Rather than spending hours, going from one shop to another, I decided that I would buy the piece online and I did. Not only did I find an exquisite pair of pearl studs, I also got a good deal for those. Had I bought those in a regular jewellery store, I would have shelled out 25% extra charges, plus my time," says Shravan Kumar, a marketing executive.
Sale of jewellery online is gaining momentum. "The festive season sees a lot of planned buying specially in the category of jewelry, gold and silver coins and diamonds. We are planning to source special offers from the brands in these categories. The festive offers on Snapdeal started with weekly offers based on specific festivals in different regions and purchase patterns. It started with Ganesh Chaturthi and Durga Puja, and will go on till Diwali," says Sandeep Komaravelly, VP Marketing at Snapdeal.com.
Juvalia & You India recently launched its new festive collection and has experienced a growth of almost 30% this month. There is definitely foreseen growth in the sales with upcoming festive season. Chaitanya Aggarwal, Founder & CEO, Juvalia & You India, says, "The demand is for the diamond look and Indo-western jewellery designs. With the gold/silver prices going up, we expect a boom in sales, since we feel that many women going to parties/weddings will turn to more well priced jewellery to accessorise their festive wear. Women are increasingly looking to match fresh designs with their garments and this is where well designed fashion jewelry from Juvalia fills the gap." Juvalia has also planned some special combos and e-discount coupons for the festive season.
Peyush Bansal, Founder & CEO, Valyoo Technologies says that the response has been tremendous already and the product reactions have been very encouraging. "We have been seeing more people buying. Sales in different categories, like jewellery, watches and gifting items for us, will of course whop during the festive months. We are expecting to do three times more than regular sales and touch `10 crore in November-December, after marginal growth (5%) in sales from July-September," he adds.

Retired teacher Harriet Clark and her son Jack were among those who gathered for Friday's Snake River FFA Scholarship Auction.
Harriet planned to bid on gravel for her driveway and a sack of flour. One of her tablemates at the dinner which preceded the live auction had his eye on a food basket and on a jacket, hats, backpack and water bottle which were part of the silent auction.
"It's a good program," Harriet said of the FFA. "My grandkids have all been very active in the program, both the boys and the girls."

On Wednesday, Medina appeared before Seventh Judicial Court District Judge Darren Simpson. Two of the original five counts of lewd conduct were dismissed on motion of the prosecutor.

Saline stated Marcus had dropped out of school and got into fights at school.

This is a series of briefing papers produced to help local authorities, providers and families work together to improve the range and quality of short breaks for disabled children.
The National Carers' Strategy Demonstrator Sites programme was developed by the Department of Health as part of the commitments made in the July 2008 National Carers' Strategy Carers at the Heart of 21st Century Families and Communities. These commitments included new measures to improve carers' health and well-being and were incorporated into DH financial plans in 2008-9.This report explores the extent to which the DS were able to meet their objectives and draws out learning from their experiences of delivering services to carers in new ways.
The Scottish Government and COSLA are determined to ensure that carers are supported to manage their caring responsibilities with confidence and in good health, and to have a life of their own outside of caring. This is the strategy to make that happen.
Full appendicies for Care 21 report
This report projects a bold new vision for unpaid carers in Scotland — a vision based on a strong framework of rights, in line with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In this vision, the caring contribution of carers to society will be fully recognised, the economic impact of their contribution accepted, and as such they will be wholly included in a society which will provide adequate support to carers.
Summary of research undertaken in USA in 2006 giving details of savings made for the state when carers look after family members and loved ones.
Objectives: To review the evidence for different models of community-based respite care for frail older people and their carers, where the participant group included older people with frailty, disability, cancer or dementia. Where data permitted, subgroups of carers and care recipients, for whom respite care is particularly effective or cost-effective, were to be identified.
Action for Children and the Every Disabled Child Matters Campaign commissioned this report which aims to explore the social and economic value created by effective local delivery of short breaks – the largest component of the Aiming High for Disabled Children (AHDC) programme – aimed at those with the most complex needs. Of the social and economic value created, particular focus is given to the value generated for the state.
The study aimed to establish the current state of knowledge about the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of respite services and short breaks for carers for people with dementia. The overall aim encompassed six objectives:
• to identify the range of services available for carers,
• to examine evidence from national and international published and grey
(unpublished) literature about effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of
respite services for carers of people with dementia,
This is a consultation that was carried out with 21 carers living in rural areas who have volunteered to talk on the phone, or had responded by email to a series of consultations from time to time, over a period of about 18 months. The aims were to make it as easy as possible for people in rural areas to take part and to ensure that the views and experience of carers in rural parts of Highland reach the people, both at local and national level, who make decisions about meeting carers' needs.
