Community Sanitation Overview:
The City of Kasaan operates and manages a piped water system. The City Council is the policy making body for the utility. Water is derived from a water infiltration gallery (impoundment) at Linkum Creek, is treated, and piped to all homes in the core area. Homes use individual septic tanks and 95% are fully plumbed. The City collects and deposits refuse weekly at the Thorne Bay landfill. Electricity is provided by Alaska Power and Telephone Company. Kasaan is connected via gravel road to the Prince of Wales Island road system.
RUBA Status & Activities This Qtr:
Juneau RUBA staff traveled to Kasaan, December 9 -10 to provide training to the Kasaan and Klawock city clerks. Both city clerks are new to their positions and neither has worked as a city clerk or in the local government field before. The two-day training included topics such as meetings, agendas, minutes, ordinances, filing, codification, and the open meeting act. RUBA staff also assisted with payroll issues and the policy on how to calculate an employee's final paycheck. The bookkeeper has contacted and received assistance from the RUBA QuickBooks hotline on three occasions this quarter. The QuickBooks contractor assisted the bookkeeper in inputting budget information so budget versus actual financial reports could be created which satisfies the criteria for the financial report essential indicator. The city currently meets all essential management indicators with only two sustainable indicators still unmet.
RUBA Activities for the Coming Qtr:
RUBA staff will continue to provide assistance as requested to maintain essential and sustainable indicators. RUBA staff will provide assistance with developing a critical spare parts list for the water and bulk fuel utilities.

Essential Indicators
All revenues and expenses for the utility are listed in the utility budget.
The utility has adopted a balanced realistic budget.
Monthly financial reports are prepared and submitted to the policy making board.
The utility is current in paying all water/wastewater electric bills.
The utility has on hand a year's adequate fuel supply or it has a financial plan to purchase an adequate supply.
The utility is receiving revenues (user fees or other sources) sufficient to cover operating expenses.
Sustainable Indicators
The utility is receiving revenues (user fees or other sources sufficient to cover operating expenses and Repair & Replacement (R) costs.
YTD revenues are at a level equal to or above those budgeted.
YTD expenditures are at a level equal to or below those budgeted.
A monthly manager's report is prepared.
Budget amendments are completed and adopted as necessary.
Finances Comments
The fiscal year for the city is July 1 through June 30. The fiscal year 2010 budget was adopted by a non-code ordinance on June 19, 2009. The utility budget is part of the overall city budget. The FY10 city budget is balanced and all utility-related revenues and expenditures are reasonably listed. Anticipated utility-related expenses exceed revenues, however; the governing body elected to subsidize the water utility. Projected water revenues, which are exclusively user fees, are $13,950. The projected water related expenses are $28,195.94. The mayor, who also serves as the utility manager, gives both written and verbal operational and financial reports to the council at monthly meetings. Financial reports consist of a current balance sheet and a year-to-date budget vs. actual profit and loss statement. Electricity is provided through Alaska Power and Telephone Company. A visual inspection of the most recent electricity billings verifies that the utility is current with all electricity accounts for the water utility. The community has a city-owned bulk fuel facility, which is comprised of propane, gasoline, and diesel storage tanks. The city receives fuel deliveries from Petro Marine in Craig, then retails this fuel to community members on a break-even basis. The city has adequate funds available and purchases fuel as needed. The city usually maintains a one to three month fuel supply in the summer months and a slightly higher level of fuel reserve during the winter. The governing body is fully aware that user fees do not produce sufficient income to cover operating expenses or repair and replacement (R and R) costs. It has been a general practice for the city to use other sources, such as the general fund, to subsidize utility operating expenses. The council's willingness to subsidize the water utility is evidenced by the inclusion of $15,000. on the FY10 Community Revenue Sharing budget. The community has adequate savings for unexpected repairs and equipment replacement. The city offsets the cost of providing water and solid waste collection services by charging monthly user fees. Residential is $60/month for water and $20/month for garbage collection. Senior Residential is $40/month for water and $13.75/month for garbage. Commercial is $70/month for water and $20/month for garbage. Garbage rates were last adjusted in December 2008, and it has been several years since water rates were last modified.
Accounting Systems
Essential Indicators
The utility has adopted a collection policy and actively follows it.
The utility bills customers on a regular basis.
An accounts receivable system is in place which tracks customers and reports past due accounts and amounts.
An accounts payable system is in place.
The payroll system correctly calculates payroll and keeps records.
A cash receipt system is in place that records incoming money and how it was spent.
The utility has a cash disbursement system that records how money was spent.
Sustainable Indicators
A chart of accounts is used that identifies categories in a reasonable, usable manner.
Monthly bank reconciliations have been completed for all utility accounts.
The utility has a purchasing system that requires approval prior to purchase, and the approval process compares proposed purchases to budgeted amounts.
Accounting Systems Comments
The city is currently using QuickBooks Pro for their accounts receivable, accounts payable, and payroll. It was originally installed through a RUBA-sponsored QuickBooks onsite installation and training grant. Since the original QuickBooks install, the city has upgraded to QuickBooks Pro 2008. The city has an adopted collection policy, which is contained in Title 7 of the Kasaan Municipal Code. The city follows the collection policy and actively pursues delinquent utility accounts. Collection actions include the establishment of payment agreements, service charges to restore service, and a 7.5% monthly service charge on delinquent accounts. The 7.5% monthly service charge exceeds the Alaska statutory limit of 10.5% per year but has never been enforced. Disconnection notices are sent to customers five days after the account becomes delinquent, including the date of intended service disconnection. Service disconnections are imposed when possible but, for the most part, are an unenforceable provision of their collection policy. Due to the age and condition of the distribution system and lack of adequate planning and utility easements, a large proportion of the curb stops are inaccessible, inoperable, or unable to be located. The community has placed an increased emphasis on pursuing delinquent accounts and has resorted to using a collection agency for customers that have moved out of town. The increased emphasis on collections has resulted in an improved collection rate from 40% a year ago to the current 97%. The utility bills customers each month in the form of a statement that includes water, garbage, and any rental fees, along with invoices for services rendered. Bills are sent out on the first of each month. The statement clearly shows both current and past due amounts but fails to provide a due date. The account receivables system documents customer payments and reports past due accounts with the corresponding monetary amounts. The aging report includes all customers and shows total amounts due as well as whether it is 1-30 days, 30-60 days, 60-90 days, or over 90 days past due. The city has an adequate chart of accounts. They use a customized version of the standard QuickBooks chart of accounts. Some accounts have been added to accommodate the enterprise funds and to allow financial transactions to be properly classified. The chart of accounts lists all the accounts in the general ledger; they are identified by a four digit reference number. The bookkeeper reports that all bank accounts have been reconciled through August 2009. The city uses a purchase order system for all purchases and maintains a cash disbursement system to track expenditures. Employees complete purchase orders, which are then submitted to the mayor for an approval after it has been compared with remaining budgeted funds. The invoice is attached to the appropriate purchase order, and checks are cut once a week.
Tax Problems
Essential Indicators
The utility has a system to accurately calculate, track, and report payroll tax liabilities.
The utility is current on filing tax reports.
The utility is current on making tax deposits.
If there are any past due tax liabilities or recorded tax liens, a lien release has been issued or a repayment agreement has been signed and repayments are current.
Tax Problems Comments
The City of Kasaan uses QuickBooks Pro to calculate, track, and report payroll liabilities and makes electronic payments using the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS). RUBA staff visually inspected the community's last four 941s (employer's quarterly federal tax returns) and verified electronic debits. The last four quarters' 941s were filed on time. The community has not received any derogatory correspondence from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or from the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development (ADOLWD) within the last year.
Personnel System
Essential Indicators
The utility has a posted workers compensation insurance policy in effect.
Sustainable Indicators
The utility has adopted and uses a Personnel Policy, which has been reviewed by an attorney, AML or Commerce for topics and language.
The utility has adequate written job descriptions for all positions.
The utility has adopted and follows a written personnel evaluation process that ties the job description to the evaluation.
The utility has an adequate written hiring process.
The utility has personnel folders on every employee that contain at least: I-9, Job Application and Letter of Acceptance.
The utility has a probationary period for new hires that includes orientation, job training/oversight, and evaluations.
The utility provides training opportunities to staff as needed and available.
Personnel System Comments
Current coverage for workers compensation insurance was verified through Alaska Municipal League Joint Insurance Association (AMLJIA). The policy is effective from 7/1/09 through 6/30/10. The policy covers work-related accidents and occupational diseases up to the Alaska statutory limits for each occurrence. Copies of the workers' compensation policy are posted in accordance with state statute in all public buildings and in areas easily accessible to employees. Kasaan has a new personnel policy that was developed with the help RUBA and AMLJIA. The employee handbook provides adequate guidance for the community and employees in the areas of hiring, conditions of employment, compensation, evaluation, discipline, grievances, employee benefits, and travel and training. The personnel policy contained in the municipal code covers hiring policies and the employment of city council members. Personnel evaluations are normally conducted after 30 days and six months for new hires and annually for permanent employees. The city keeps records relating to employees in a personnel file. The personnel files are well-organized and contain all the necessary employee documents. RUBA staff reviewed personnel files and found all current employees contained required documentation. The mayor reported that all files connected with an employee are considered strictly confidential, yet, upon inspection, the files were found in an unlocked filing cabinet. The mayor made an on-the-spot correction by having utility staff place a hasp and lock on the filing cabinet, thereby securing the files and limiting access.
Organizational Management
Essential Indicators
The entity that owns the utility is known; the entity that will operate the utility is set.
The policy making body is active in policy making of the utility.
The policy making body enforces utility policy.
The utility has an adequately trained manager.

Organizational Management Comments
The City of Kasaan owns and operates the water and bulk fuel utilities. The council is the formal governing body and meeting minutes verify that it is actively engaged in making decisions on behalf of the utilities. The council meets the second Tuesday of each month and holds additional work sessions if necessary. The city complies with open meeting requirements and posts meetings in accordance with local code and state statutes. The manager for the sanitation utilities is the mayor. Her applicable experience and training includes being a former business owner, and she has management experience with the Kasaan Bay water shed. She recently completed a 32-hour Organizational Management course and is planning on taking the remainder of the utility management courses necessary to become a certified utility manager within the next two years. The bookkeeper is responsible for the maintenance of the books for all community services. This employee has only held the position since 2009; however, she has over 40 years of bookkeeping experience. She has completed several QuickBooks trainings and has worked as a bookkeeper for the U.S. Forest Service and the City of Thorne Bay. The city operates a small level T (treated) drinking water system. The city has one certified operator working on the sanitary systems. The operator is adequately trained given the classification of the facility. The utility operator Michael Escoffon has the following certificates: Water Treatment P Exp. 12/31/09 Water Distribution P Exp. 12/31/09 The council has adopted all the ordinances necessary to own and operate the utility services. Title 7, Chapter 2 of the Kasaan Municipal code establishes the policies and procedures for the operation and maintenance of the community water supply system; Title 7, Chapter 1 for garbage collection; and Title 7, Chapter 3 for the bulk fuel utility. The utility has adopted an organizational chart which is included in their utility business plan.
Operation of Utility
Essential Indicators
The utility operator(s) are actively working towards necessary certification.
The utility has a preventative maintenance plan developed for the existing sanitation facilities.
Sustainable Indicators
The manager receives a monthly O&M report from the utility operator and routinely "spot checks" the facilities to see that the maintenance items are being completed.
The utility has a safety manual and holds safety meetings.
Utility facilities have not suffered any major problems/outages due to management issues that are unresolved.
The utility is operating at the level of service that was proposed.
The operator provides status reports to the manager on a routine basis.
The utility has completed and distributed its "Consumer Confidence Report".
The utility is not on the "Significant Non-Complier" (SNC) list.
The utility maintains an inventory control list.
The utility maintains a critical spare parts list.
Operation of Utility Comments
The operator's provisional water treatment and water distribution certifications exceed State of Alaska licensing requirement for a Small T water system. The operator is working towards his Level 1 certification; however, the next level of certification requires 1950 hours of on-the-job experience. The operator only spends two hours a day on water treatment and one hour a day with the water distribution system. The utility operator consults with the mayor on a regular basis and provides both verbal and written status reports. RUBA staff reviewed samples of the monthly written report. The report is a simple, well thought out, pre-prepared, fill-in-the-blank form that allows the operator to report a standardized set of information points. The report includes water treatment and consumption information, fuel consumption, personnel utilization, customer complaints, problems resolved, new problems identified, and preventative maintenance tasks not completed. The city participates in the AML/JIA safety and risk reduction program and has recently adopted a new safety manual. RUBA staff reviewed the most recent training documents, sign-in sheets, and meeting notes. The city keeps records on the types of training completed, the materials used, and the employees who attended the training. Recent trainings included Early return to work program, Holiday fun, stress, and accidents, and Back injury prevention and safe lifting. The water operator reports that the water utility is operating at the proposed level of service and has not suffered any major problems or outages due to management issues. The utility completes and distributes its Community Confidence Report (CCR) providing drinking water quality information as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act and State regulations. The last CCR was reviewed by the ADEC drinking water program for completeness and was distributed to customers on June 17, 2009, by means of direct mail, posting in several public places, and delivering to other community organizations. The utility does not have a critical spare parts list but do maintain an inventory control list. The utility maintains a sufficient level of supplies and tools, but, due to the community's island location and dependence on air and ferry service, the level of critical spare parts may be inadequate to prevent a service outage. The FY09 utility budget has allocated zero dollars towards repairs and maintenance. The City is no longer listed on the Significant Non-Compliance (SNC) list

The conference will end with remarks and a presentation of case studies by Jay Bishoff, MD, director of the Intermountain Urological Institute at Intermountain Medical Center.
"This is such a confusing time for physicians trying to counsel their patients about prostate cancer screening," said Dr. Avizonis. "The Cowan Symposium is an important resource in educating physicians, nurses and other care providers. Without it, we'd have to travel to several conferences around the country to gain the same, very specialized knowledge."
"The end result," she said, "is better care for our patients here in Utah."

CARSON, Calif. – Veteran midfielder Colin Clark is not expecting to return to the LA Galaxy in 2014.
The 29-year-old midfielder is the subject of Friday's LA Galaxy Insider Year in Review, in which he discusses his trying season with the Galaxy. In 2013, Clark made 13 appearances with six starts in all competitions as he struggled to find consistent form throughout the year. As he looks ahead to next season, however, he'll need to figure out just what went awry.
"I still need to talk to talk to Bruce Arena about next year, but I'm envisioning joining another team and going from there, and fighting for a spot," Clark told LA Galaxy Insider. "I think I've got plenty of years left to give and I feel like I'm capable of playing in this league, but I need to find the right balance of training and games. I'm still hoping that I'm here next year, but at the end of the day, that will be determined by the coaching staff. One or the other, I'll find out what happens and go from there."
Jaime Penedo's incredible save against Vancouver Whitecaps FC has reached the final round of MLSsoccer.com's Save of the Year competition.
Penedo's incredible diving stop against Jordan Harvey's close-range chance is nominated alongside saves by Real Salt Lake's Nick Rimando, FC Dallas' Raul Fernandez (which is against the Galaxy), and Portland Timbers 'keeper Donovan Ricketts.

A gif of Penedo's save is below...
LA Galaxy captain Robbie Keane has endorsed former teammate Mike Magee for a potential call-up to Ireland if he's eligible.
In an interview posted by the tabloid the Ireland Herald, Keane stresses that new Irish head coach Martin O'Neill should consider the Chicago Fire striker who tallied 20 goals during his 2013 season.
"His whole family is Irish. His grandfather or father. He's not an international. I'd say he would [accept the call-up]. He definitely would like to but he's probably waiting for that American call-up. How he hasn't got it I don't know," Keane told the publication. "He was a left-winger for us, a very clever footballer. Technically he's very good. He didn't start playing until he was 16. He never played as a kid. If he [O'Neill] asked me about him, I certainly would but I'm sure [assistant manager Roy Keane] and people would be fully aware of all the players available to them."
Keane has pushed for Magee to receive a U.S. call-up in the past even stating that Magee's family ancestry is Irish, but whether he'll be able to represent Ireland remains to be seen.
The Irish Independent also posted Keane's thoughts on Magee's eligibility for Ireland as well as his musings on Twitter, life in Los Angeles, and of course, turf.
The dreams of College Cup were extinguished for the Loyola Marymount Lions on Thursday as they were bounced from the NCAA Tournament by the Stanford Cardinal in a thrilling penalty kick shootout.
Former LA Galaxy Academy forward Christian Alvarado went 106 minutes during the match as Stanford advanced into the second round of the tournament by winning a penalty kick shootout three to two.
The victory by the Cardinal sets up a contest pitting the alma maters of multiple Galaxy players against one another as defender Todd Dunivant will take on Cal-State Northridge on Nov. 24 which produced LA defender Sean Franklin and midfielder Rafael Garcia.
Meanwhile, UCLA which boast multiple Galaxy Academy products will face Elon on Nov. 24 in Westwood while U.C. Santa Barbara and their two LA Academy alums host Penn State on Nov. 24.
CARSON, Calif. – Tommy Meyer endured the dreaded "sophomore slump" in his second year with the LA Galaxy, but the rookie is confident that he has the tools to put his career back on track.
In my latest LA Galaxy Insider Year in Review, I look back at Meyer's season that saw him make just 11 appearances for the club. Meyer, who is hopeful of returning the Galaxy in 2014, admitted that his up and down form was largely attributed to confidence as he failed to lock down consistent minutes throughout the season.
But that isn't the only thing that Meyer hopes to tighten up heading into 2014.
"If you play a consistent number of games at a time then you're going to have that confidence and be able to build upon the game before as well as learn from your mistakes," Meyer said after admitting that he lacked confidence at time in 2013. "I also think that I'll need to work on defending restarts, for sure, that's a big key going into next year."
Courtesy of LAGalaxy.com, the story of former LA Galaxy goalkeeper Kevin Hartman told through photos.
Former LA Galaxy goalkeeper Kevin Hartman announced his retirement on Sunday ending a 17-year career that saw him become the league's all-time leader in minutes played.
Hartman who played for the Galaxy from 1997 to 2006 was a key component in a Galaxy side that won two MLS Cups, two U.S. Open Cups, and two Supporters' Shields during his tenure. Following his time with the Galaxy, Hartman had stops with the Kansas City Wizards, FC Dallas, and finally the New York Red Bulls. Known as "El Gato" or "The Cat", Hartman ends his career with the all-time leads in minutes played (37,260), saves (1,474), wins (180), and shutouts (112).
A video provided by the league is below...
Following the annoucement, Galaxy fans took to Twitter to celebrate Hartman's career. A few select responses are below...

CARSON, Calif. – The road to the 2013 College Cup kicks off on Thursday and there will be a sizeable LA Galaxy Academy presence when the tournament begins.
There is a sizeable Galaxy contingent on Loyola Marymount who will take on Stanford after winning their first outright West Coast Conference Championship. The Lions face Stanford in Palo Alto on Thursday evening at Sunday. LMU boast three LA Galaxy Academy players Christian Alvarado, Vince Paldino, and Billy Thompson. Of the three players Alvarado is the lone major contributor as he made 19 appearances with 15 starts and one assist for the Lions in 2014.
Meanwhile, several LA Galaxy Academy players will be suiting up for teams with first-round byes. U.C. Irvine, who have sophomore defender Matt Tiley on their roster will face the winner of North Carolina vs. South Florida on Nov. 24 at Anteater Stadium in Irvine. No. 10 U.C. Santa Barbara who boast midfielder Drew Murphy and goalkeeper Josh McNeely will return to action on Nov. 24 against the winner of Penn State vs. St. Francis Brooklyn. Murphy made 19 appearances earning one goal and eight assists while McNeely has played 18 games while starting every match in goal for the Gauchos since Sept. 13.
Lastly, No. 1 UCLA take on the winner of the Elon vs. Clemson match on Nov. 24 at Drake Stadium. The Bruins have six former Galaxy academy players in goalkeeper Juan Cervantes, defenders Javan Torre and Nathan Smith, and midfielders Grady Howe, Brian lloski, and Willie Raygoza. Howe leads all Galaxy academy alums in appearances for the Bruins by making 18 appearances in his sophomore season. Meanwhile, Smith made 14 appearances earning 13 starts tallying one goal and two assists while Torre made 13 appearances in 2013. Raygoza, IIoski and Cervantes each tallied less than eight appearances for the Bruins.
Do you remember where you were on November 20th, 2011? Well, if you answered correctly, you'll have said that you were at The Home Depot Center for the 2011 MLS Cup watching the LA Galaxy defeat the Houston Dynamo to win their third league championship.
I was in attendance for that rainy night in Carson—writing for my former outlet Soccer by Ives— with a prime seat in the auxiliary press box located on the south roof of the stadium. Like most of the fans, media and players in attendance, I left the match drenched, but it was well worth it for a highly entertaining match that saw Houston give the Galaxy a run for their money until a beautiful sequence in the 72nd minute that led to Landon Donovan's goal. That game also saw the real emergence of the partnership of Donovan and Robbie Keane as forward partners, which is something that has remained a fixture for the Galaxy throughout the 2013 season.
As we look back on the second anniversary of LA's third MLS title, check out the highlights from the match below as well as the locker room celebration and interviews courtesy of LAGalaxy.com.

Soft, cuddly and flat, the FLATOUTbear is made of 100% pure Australian sheepskin shaped like a teddy bear. They are just gorgeous. They're natural, plush and luxurious - perfect for babies, kids, grannies... What can we say, everyone loves FLATOUTbears
pip wrote:We arrived home to find a package form OZ addressed to little Harry. It was sent by Mrs Pips dads Aussie cousin so we were excited to see what it was. We opened the package and were shocked to find what looked like roadkill. It looks a bit like someone went to the Teddy Bear factory and forgot the stuffing.
Turns out thes are the new big thing Down Under and they're bloody expensive (around 50 euro) for a squashed bear. They're made from sheep or something . Bloody strange but Mad better get a few in the shop just in case
everyone loves FLATOUTbears
If you have a FLATOUTbear already, read no further because you know how fabulous they are:

Hammond drives the icons: Integra Type-R
Posted: 13 Jun 2013
I'm sorry, but the moment 'stripped-out', 'basic', 'hardcore' or 'bare-essentials' feature in a car's description, I'm in. And the Honda Integra Type R was, for many of us, the first time we had really come across these concepts wrapped up in a contemporary car that wasn't a historical oddity with no roof or doors. Hell, even the choice of colours was limited; you could have black, red or white, as though being burdened with too wide a choice of paint finishes might add weight and interfere with the infinite precision and razor-edged sharpness of the car. It even looks serious: pinched and kind of waspish, it doesn't want any flabby silliness from you, fatty, so walk smartly past the plain, no-nonsense nose, and hop in.
This wasn't a marketing exercise in stripping out a car to satisfy young bucks in need of a boast; it really is stripped out. The windscreen is made of thinner glass, the spare wheel cover has been ditched and so has most of the sound-deadening. Which means it might only bear a 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine up front, but it makes its presence felt as soon as you fire it up.
Raspy, is the word, right from the get-go. And it does sort of keep on going; the clever variable-valve technology stuff means peak power really is at the peak, right up at 8,000rpm, before it runs out of puff at 9,000rpm, having first chucked out a healthy 187bhp - plenty of shove in a car weighing just 1,100kg. Zero to 60mph takes a nadge over 6.5secs, and the Integra Type R will go on to a perfectly achievable and plenty bracing 143mph. It's more than a bit special, that little engine.
The intake ports were hand-polished, so Honda could only build 25 cars a day. Come on, that is priceless bar-room boast ammo right there. Yes, it's front-wheel-drive, but no, that in no way curtails the fun to be had here. It's a superbly stiff chassis, and with a limited-slip diff, there's all manner of lairy, lift-off oversteer fun to be had, even for a muppet like me.
I felt like a proper driver in this thing, so we certainly know it flatters. And it feels tough too - there's an overwhelming sense, as you brutally cane the backside out of it, that this car was built for just such treatment. As long as you're doing it with serious driving in mind and, preferably, not round a supermarket car park after dark, it'll happily let you get on with it, and do all it can to respond quickly, and with very well-honed accuracy, to your commands.
It feels as stripped-out, special, focused and serious as it looks on paper, which is a good thing really, because these were not cheap when they turned up in 1998. For the price, just over £20,000, buyers would have had to have a good long look down a lengthy list of alternatives before settling for the Honda with its modest, weight-saving spoiler, complete absence of bulging arches and macho muscularity.
This was one for the purist, the serious enthusiast. It was a bit too rich for boy-racers, certainly, which means while any example you can find will almost certainly have been thrashed to within an inch of its life, the driver administering the thrashing won't, at least, have been wearing a naff hat while doing it.
An altogether cleverer thing, I reckon, than the usual hot-hatch fodder and every bit as practical, tough and usable too. As clever a choice now as it was 15 years ago.

BAE Systems Barrow wins £1.2bn Ministry of Defence contract
Last updated at 09:53, Monday, 10 December 2012
A CONTRACT worth £1.2bn has been awarded to build the new hunter-killer submarine HMS Audacious at BAE Systems in Barrow.
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) also announced that a further £1.5bn has been committed to the remaining three submarines in the class.
The £1.2bn contract with BAE Systems will safeguard 3,000 skilled jobs in Barrow.
Audacious is the fourth of seven Astute Class submarines being built for the Royal Navy. They are the most technologically advanced the Royal Navy has ever sent to sea and will progressively replace the Trafalgar Class currently in service.
The first two boats, Astute and Ambush, are currently undergoing sea trials to rigorously test their systems. The third boat, Artful, is reaching the final stages of her construction at Barrow shipyard.
Early work has been started on boat five, named Anson, while preparation has begun on as yet unnamed boats six and seven.
The Astute class boasts a range of capabilities inside each 97-metre long hull. Powered by a Rolls-Royce nuclear propulsion system, the reactor never needs refuelling.
The sonar system has the processing power of 2,000 laptops and can track ships 3,000 miles away.
They are armed with both Tomahawk land attack missiles and Spearfish torpedoes, and her missiles have a target range of 1,200 miles with accuracy measured in metres.
Defence secretary Philip Hammond said: "This contract marks an important step forward in the progress of our Attack Submarine programme and moves the Royal Navy closer to adding more of these highly-advanced and powerful attack submarines to its fleet.
"Our ability to commit an additional £1.5bn for boats five, six and seven underlines the benefits of a balanced budget and fully-funded equipment programme that gives our Armed Forces greater certainty.
"This funding demonstrates our commitment not only to a key Royal Navy capability, but also to the submarine industry in Barrow, which will play a vital role in Britain's defence for decades to come."
Rear Admiral Simon Lister, the MoD's director of submarines, said: "The Astute Class will become the jewel in the crown of the Royal Navy's Submarine Service and boasts much greater firepower and more advanced sonar and communications than ever before.
"These submarines represent a huge leap forward in technology and will operate all over the world with the Royal Navy.
"These boats provide the optimum capability a submarine can offer in land strike, strategic intelligence gathering, anti-submarine and surface ship warfare, and protection of the strategic deterrent."
BAE Systems Maritime submarines managing director John Hudson said: "This is a very significant milestone for the company as it provides increased stability for the remainder of the programme.
"The Astute class will deliver to the Royal Navy a fantastic attack submarine capability and both HMS Astute and Ambush are currently demonstrating this while on their sea trials.
"Audacious, and the rest of the submarines in the Astute class, will eventually complement those already at sea."

Have your say
âThe Astute Class will become the jewel in the crown of the Royal Navyâs Submarine Service"Well I should hope so as there is will only be the ONE CLASS of attack submarines in the Royal Navy after the last of the Trafalgar Class has been paid off!
Great news for the town and the people who work there.
Not to mention the local economy who will benefit from this also

BONIFAY — Superintendent of Holmes County Schools Eddie Dixon announced that their intended location for the new Bonifay Middle and Elementary School is the Holmes County Fair Grounds during the Holmes County Board of County Commission's June 25 meeting.
"The fair grounds behind the Holmes County High School is the ideal location because we can then have all the schools in one location," said Dixon. "The old high school, which is the middle school now, was built in the early '50s, while the elementary school was built in 1969. The middle school had clay pipes, which are now completely gone and that's just one of the many reasons we need new schools."
County Attorney Jeff Goodman inquired Dixon about the Board's role in this endeavor.
"We need some sort of agreement that if we acquire the funding then we'll be able to reach some sort of agreement concerning that property," said Dixon. "Representatives from the Department of Education will be down next week, perhaps you can send a representative on behalf of the Board to attend?"
The Board approved of sending Commissioner Williams and Goodman to all negotiations involving the process of building these new schools at the Holmes County Fair Grounds.
Holmes County Constitutional Officers including Property Appraiser Otis Corbin, Supervisor of Elections Debbie Wilcox, Clerk of Court Kyle Hudson, Holmes County Tax Collector Harry B. Bell, III and County Judge Owen Powell were present to request that the county do a feasibility study for Holmes County to have a Governmental Complex.
"We don't want it tonight, we just want you to do a study to see if it's feasible," said Powell. "One of our more pressing needs is to get the Supervisor of Elections office out of the courthouse. It's subjecting our voters to the bad company that frequent that courthouse and every day it poses a compromise in security to the courthouse."
Powell added that with one building there would be shared facilities, conference room, etc. and that would in the long run save the county money.
"I think there will be funding available for such a facility and we are together on this as a unified front," said Powell. "We just want a good start to get going."
Bell said that he was anticipating a large amount of growth coming to Holmes County and they would need the additional office space and parking for county business.
"My situation is kind of urgent," said Wilcox. "Our voters did very well coming to the back of the courthouse for early voting and the government was very flexible with us, however it is still a requirement that early voting be done at the Supervisor of Elections' Office and our voters have the right to feel safe when coming to vote. Being near the courthouse makes for a hostile environment."
Commissioner Bill Parish suggested that the study be held off until the next budget cycle.
"The building itself isn't going to be finished until further down the road at any rate, so there's time for the study to be included in our next budgeting cycle," said Parish. "I do agree that we have an urgent matter at the moment and suggest we find a place to relocate the Supervisor of Elections' Office as soon as possible until this governmental complex can become established."
The Board agreed to look into a possible new location temporarily for the Supervisor of Elections' Office.
Board approved of building a Mosquito Control Building to house the mosquito spray truck and chemicals at the Recycling Center for the amount of $12,595, which will come out Mosquito Control's budget.
Board approved of extending their contracts with Melvin Engineering and Preble Rish for another year.
Chair Monty Merchant said that he spoke with the Department of Transportation and it looks as though they might have additional funds to help widen County Road 2 from County Road 82 to the Walton County Line, however it would help if the Board made it a top priority.
"This doesn't devalue the importance of the repairs needed for Thomas Drive and Duncan Road, it just pushes it up so that the project can be started on this year," said Merchant. "Thomas Drive and Duncan Road still won't be eligible for work until 2017."
Board approved of placing County Road 2 at the top of their priority list.
Board approved of Holmes County Extension Director Shep Eubanks' recommendation to hire Wendy Smith as the new Extension Office Secretary.
"Out of 22 applicants and eight interviews she was the best choice," said Eubanks. "She has over 17 years of experience, her test scores were the highest and she had outstanding references."
Board approved of Director of Holmes County Emergency Management Wanda Stafford's request to extend the Emergency Operations Center hours from 35 hours per week to 40, with a vote of 4 to 1, with Merchant voting "no."
Stafford confirmed that demands on the Emergency Operations Center had been increasing and the additional hours would not be of any cost to the county.
"We will continue to do our best to support you all and do the best job that we can," said Stafford.
Commissioner Bobby Sasnet moved to have a local bus driver's driveway repaired but it died due to lack of second.
Goodman said there was some room to work if it was private property being used for public purposes and the other commissioners were reluctant because it was private property.
Merchant asked about the ongoing efforts to beautify the courthouse and Board of County Commissioners building.
County Engineer Whitney Nelson from Melvin Engineering said he had submitted a plan that would cost $2,128 that would enlist the help of inmate labor and a local nursery.
Board agreed to look into asking the Bonifay Garden Club for their advice as well.
The next scheduled Holmes County Board of County Commissions meeting is set for 9 a.m. on July 9.

The Juke is Nissan's smaller, sportier crossover. The small crossover segment is one of the largest in the US. And one of the fastest growing. It will go on sale this fall and the 2011 Juke will have plenty of competition from other new models when it launches. The Juke is based on the same B platform as many of the Nissan small vehicles are. This platform is the same used on the company Cube and Versa. The Cube is powered by a new model engine. A 188 HP and 177 Ft. - lbs. torque engine, featuring four cylinders and displacing 1.6 liters. This new engine benefits from both direct fuel injection and turbo charging. Nissan chose to use a Continuously Variable Transmission, or CVT as the standard transmission, with a 6 speed manual available as an option on the front wheel drive models. The all wheel drive system utilized on the Juke is an advanced drive train, offering torque vectoring; this can split the power in both front and rear directions, but can also direct power from one wheel to another on the same axle.

The fireman who broke SD's color barrier
In 1951, segregation was a sad fact of American life
In November 1951, San Diego's fire chief sent a rookie firefighter to North Park's Station 14.
"And that was it," said that one-time rookie, Ben Holman, now 87. "The San Diego Fire Department was integrated."
The story of how San Diego's once all-white fire stations became colorblind, Holman admits, really isn't this simple. Monday is Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a holiday honoring the civil rights pioneer whose most notable campaigns occurred in the South. Yet racism and segregation were no strangers to Southern California.
Still, change was coming. Jackie Robinson had broken major league baseball's color barrier in 1947. The next year, President Truman ordered the U.S. military's integration. In 1951, though, San Diego remained among the many American cities with neighborhoods where blacks could not reside, restaurants they could not enter, jobs they could not fill.
That summer, Holman had breezed through the fire department's written and physical exams. The young World War II veteran expected to be hired and sent to Mountain View, a mixed neighborhood east of downtown that was home to Mount Hope Cemetery, Greenwood Memorial Park and Station 19, the only place in the city where black firefighters were assigned. But in September, he was summoned to Chief George Courser's office for a series of interviews. Courser quizzed Holman on his education, his work history, his experiences with whites.
Finally, the chief made up his mind. "Holman," he said, "you are going to be my Jackie Robinson."
The rookie agreed. "This was a heavy burden," he said recently. "But I didn't realize how heavy it would be."

Alwin Benjamin Holman was born in Alton, Ill., a segregated city. Ben didn't realize that fact for years, because his mother wouldn't allow her son to grow up under the shadow of discrimination. Blacks couldn't sip sodas at the counter in Alton's drugstore, for instance, but she always deflected Ben's pleas for a cold Coke. Money's short. We have sodas at home. Anything but the real, racist reason.
So Holman grew up confident, easygoing — and patriotic. Enlisting in the Navy in 1944, he was shipped to San Diego in January '45, where he displayed his common sense. "I took my peacoat off and never put it on again. No snow in the winter, no tornadoes in the spring, the summers were not too hot. Why would I ever go back to Illinois?"
He wouldn't. He met and married Ruby Penn and, after the war, took a job in the post office. Then he noticed that the fire department steadily promoted its people — even its few black people.
The department had hired black firefighters since 1919, when Timothy Williams joined the force. (The first Mexican-American fireman, Alfredo Salazar, was hired a year earlier.) Other than Station 19, though, every fire station in town was manned exclusively by whites until 1951. Courser, who died 10 years later, never shared his reasoning with the rookie. But Holman believes the chief welcomed change — "He cared about people" — and figured he could ensure a smoother transition.

As we commemorate 20 years of serving our guests and emerging along the way as India's most preferred airline, do join us on our little flight down memory lane as we relive the past and look ahead towards a bright future.
Our emphasis on cutting-edge technology is one of the key factors for our success. We realised early on that if we were to build an airline that is at par with the best in the world, we needed to be relentless in our pursuit to continuously innovate. After our first flight that introduced the Modern Generation B737-300 to India, we set out to upgrade our fleet with a clear focus on high-quality and reliable service.
Setting new benchmarks, Jet Airways became the first airline in India to introduce a number of new technology aircraft—the Modern Generation B737-400s and 500s; and the ATR 72-500 turboprop; the Next Generation B737-700, B737-800 and the B737-900s. It is also a matter of pride that we were the first airline in Asia to fly the Next Generation B737-800 and that too, barely seven months post its commercial induction in the United States. We currently operate a fleet of 10 Boeing 777-300 ER aircraft, 10 Airbus A330-200 aircraft, 3 Airbus A330-300 aircraft, 59 next generation Boeing 737-700/800/900 aircraft, 17 ATR 72-500 and 1 ATR 72-600 turboprop aircraft.
Use of technology is not limited to our technological operations only; it is also at the forefront of our on-ground facilities in order to adhere to the highest international standards. After careful studying of our guests' fast-paced lifestyles, we introduced 24-hour reservation systems linked to the world's best centralised reservation systems such as SABRE, Amadeus, Galileo, Abacus, Worldspan, Axess, Infini, Gets and Stin.
This initiative was followed by the pioneering concepts of satellite ticketing at corporate houses; e-ticketing; JetMobile (mobile ticketing); JetWallet (self-service GPRS booking channel in association with Vodafone); IVR booking (with e-tickets sent via email); and automated ticketing at travel agents. Similarly, we introduced a number of timesaving check-in options over the years, such as Web Check-in and Kiosk Check-in, which make our guests' travel experience a seamless one.

I have one usb port in my car. Will this double the usb so two devices can charge at the same time or does it only go in a cigarette lighter socket?
- Asked by Peggy M from Davis
Just Wireless Dual USB Car Charger for iOS Devices
Product No Longer Available
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
This charger does not fit into a USB port. It fits into the cigarette lighter of your car and has two USB ports to charge up to two IPads simultaneously (and of course a combination of IPhone/IPhone or IPod/IPad etc..)
- Answered by Isaac D from Brooklyn
Yes, you can charge two devices. You can either plug the charger into your cigarette lighter OR USB port. Either way, you can charge two devices.
- Answered by Erich S from Thornton
This product is designed to fit into the power port, or cigarette light port of the car, and give you two USB inputs to charge 2 devices. It does not convert your current USB port into 2 ports.

Letchworth State Park wins USA TODAY 2015 Readers' Choice Award for BEST STATE PARK! Read more on this!
Letchworth State Park, renowned as the "Grand Canyon of the East," is one of the most scenically magnificent areas in the eastern U.S. The Genesee River roars through the gorge, over three major waterfalls, between cliffs as high as 600 feet in some places. The river's cliffs are surrounded by lush forests. Hikers can choose among 66 miles of hiking trails. Trails are also available for horseback riding, biking, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing. Letchworth offers nature, history and performing arts programs, guided walks and tours, a summer lecture series, whitewater rafting, kayaking, hot air ballooning, and two pools for swimming. Winter activities include snow tubing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and horse-drawn sleigh rides.
Letchworth State Park, located in the Genesee River gorge 35 miles south of Rochester, celebrated its centennial in 2006.
Park visitors have their pick of activities, including biking, horseback riding, fishing, ice skating, hiking past numerous scenic views and waterfalls, hunting, swimming, an ice skating rink, visiting the museum, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.
Loaded with amenities, the park has a bridle path, cabins, campsites with dumping stations and showers, food concessions, a gift shop, group campsites, a museum, a nature trail, picnic tables, pavilions, playing fields, a playground, and a swimming pool. For organizational retreats, educational and training needs can be met at the historic Conference Center, located in a secluded area at the southwest portion of the park. The fully-equipped Maplewood Lodge is an ideal vacation rental, particularly for snowmobilers, as it is connects to the NYS snowmobile trail system.

Gynecologic disorders are often in the differential diagnosis on surgical consultation. To provide a deeper understanding of this complex field, the Sinai surgical residents will rotate in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Sinai Hospital at the end of their 2nd clinical year.
To maximize exposure and relevance to the General Surgery resident, the rotation will be split into 3 weeks of General GYN and 3 weeks of GYN-Oncology. The resident will participate in the same rotational call schedule as the 2nd year GYN resident and be exposed to labor and delivery related issues as well as emergency GYN consults throughout the rotation when on call.
The Sinai resident will be an integral member of the OB-GYN team, under the supervision of the senior/chief OB-GYN resident(s) and attending staff and will be working with experienced OB-GYN mid-level provider(s). As such, the surgical residents will participate in all care rendered to inpatient OB-GYN patients at Sinai Hospital, including admission, consultation and diagnostic work-up, surgical procedures, post-operative care and discharge, as well as various clinic and attending office hours.
Education is a central feature of Sinai's independent GYN residency: weekly teaching rounds, OB/GYN lecture series, GYN Tumor Board, as mewl as monthly OB-GYN Journal Club, and GYN Morbidity and Mortality conference. In addition to this, the GYN faculty will provide lectures on topics relevant to general surgeons throughout the surgery specialty curriculum.

A retina MacBook Pro owner is gearing up to launch a class action lawsuit against Apple over the ghosting in his computer's display, according to Law360. The issue broadly affects the high-resolution MacBook Pros and has been ascribed to LG-made panels, versus Samsung ones. The lawsuit accuses Apple of "tricking" customers into buying ghosting screens by not disclosing which computer uses which make of display.
Apparently the lawsuit has been filed in California by Beau Hodges. who says that the two makes of display made by LG and Samsung respectively "exhibit different levels of performance and quality" and claims Apple is in the wrong for advertising both displays as the same.
Do customers have a right to know when parts are used or not used or are Apple adversing the products correctly ? Will this class action go anywhere at all ?

Crash closes Route 7 in BrandonBy Erin Mansfield
STAFF WRITER | August 29,2014
Anthony Edwards / Staff Photo The driver, Spencer Mumford, 22, of West Rutland, was bloodied but walked away from a side-swipe crash with a tractor-trailer on Route 7 in Brandon on Thursday.BRANDON A side-swipe collision between a passenger car and a tractor-trailer sent a car door flying 50 feet and closed Route 7 for a half hour Thursday afternoon.
Neither driver was seriously hurt, though one was treated by an ambulance crew at the scene.
Spencer Mumford, 22, of West Rutland was driving a Honda Accord south on Route 7 just north of Otter Valley Union High School when he veered into the other lane, police said.
Sharwin Victor, who was driving a tractor-trailer for Hannaford Supermarkets, was northbound on the same road.
Victor said in an interview he maneuvered onto the shoulder along the right side of the highway, near the intersection of Country Club Road, to avoid hitting Mumfords car.
Brandon Police Officer Ben Herrick said the accident happened at 4:20 p.m.
By 4:30 p.m., Brandon firefighters had the scene closed off and diverted traffic through a nearby parking lot.
I was on my way to Burlington, and I had two stops, Victor said. I was doing the speed limit coming around the turn, and I saw someone drifting. My main focus was to avoid him.
I dont know if he was trying to pass them or not paying attention, but he just ended up drifting in my lane, Victor said.
Mumford had blood running down the left side of his head and body and was treated at the scene by the Brandon Area Rescue Squad. He declined to be taken to the hospital.
His car had severe damage on the driver side, the airbag had deployed, and the left front tire was destroyed. The Hannaford truck appeared to sustain minor damage.
A tow truck arrived to clean up the scene around 5 p.m., and firefighters opened the Route 7 northbound lane.
Herrick called the reason for Mumfords drifting unknown. He said the incident was nearly a head-on collision, avoided because Victor swerved out of the way.
Victor said he has driven trucks for 10 years and has never had an accident. Mumford declined to be interviewed.

Sea to Summit Big River Dry Sack
Sea-to-Summit's 35 liter Big River Dry Bag is a voluminous stuff sack that is good for situations where keeping gear dry is top priority. While this reviewer is pleased with the product, he is left wondering why a bag marketed as "waterproof" cannot be submerged? Note: While I did purchase this product new, I bought it with the CampSaver Gift Card I won from Trailspace in June 2014. Thank you, Trailspace! Now to the review...

Innate Mentor Storage Sacs
I used Innate's Mentor Storage Sacs during my thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail thru-hike in 2011, and have used them on every backpacking trip since. With their iconic air-valve, no storage sac is so easy to close, which when rolling and unrolling multiple times per day accounts for a lot of saved time and hassle.

Mammut Ambient Light Dry Bag
Dry bag that transforms into lantern. This translucent dry bag is pretty simple, except for a small sleeve in its base. This sleeve allows you to place a headlamp in the base which lights up the translucent material turning it into a effective lantern. You can clip it inside your tent, or hang it anywhere. It works really well and is much better then a headlamp for getting changed inside a tent, or anything of the like. Full review
Sea to Summit eVent Compression Dry Sack

We each use the 3L size to put the items we don't want to get wet while we're backpacking (phone, wallet, access papers, matches, etc.). They are lightweight and durable, more so than the ziplock baggies we used in the past. I bought two of these 3L OR Ultralight dry bags a couple of years ago on ebay. My children were wanting something to carry their phone and other items they didn't want to get damaged if it rained.

I have used NRS bags for twenty years, guiding on whitewater rivers my own gear is transported in these. Great product, simple features and great value. Perfect, as there is a size for every purpose or every need. From weekend canoe trip, to long term challenging river expeditions. Purchase several sizes of uses of first aid kit, toiletries, foul weather clothing and gear. Great for an automobile emergency kit with blankets or cold weather clothing. Full review
Granite Gear eVent Sil Compression DrySack
Awesome waterproof compression drysack. Ultralight and shaped to pack better than ever. Fighting to fit everything in my pack from day one, I came across these somehow. The rectangular shape helps fill the pack way easier then a bunch of cylinder shaped sacks could from my experience. I had a 25 degree Halo sleeping bag which took up the entire sleeping bag compartment in my Baltoro pack. After compressing down in this sack, it was less than half the size of the original stuff sack, and was basically… Full review
