Personal History:
Dr. Di Sole is currently an Assistant Professor in the Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine. She was a member of the faculty at the Department of Internal Medicine, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas before she joined the University of Maryland in 2012. Prior to her appointment at the University of Texas, she taught cardiovascular and renal physiology as a lecturer at the Institute for Cell and Molecular Biosciences, University of Newcastle in the UK.
Dr. Di Sole obtained her PhD in renal physiology in 1999 working between the University of Bari, Italy and the University of Zurich, Switzerland. As a PhD student, she developed her interest in studying the regulation of sodium ion transport, in particular the function of adenosine in the maintenance of salt and water homeostasis in the kidney. She has pursued these research interests during two consecutive post-doctoral fellowships at the Faculty of Medicine, Georg-August-University of Gottingen, Germany and the Department of Internal Medicine, UT Southwestern MC, Dallas (Sponsored by an American Heart Association Fellowship), respectively, several sabbaticals at different academic institutions, and presently, as an assistant professor.
Dr. Di Sole's work has made key contributions in the understanding of both adenosine renal physiology and pathophysiology, providing new insight on the renal action of this crucial paracrine/autocrine hormone. Her research on adenosine has been awarded a Carl W. Gottschalk Research Scholar Grant.
Education and Training
Research Interests:
Sodium handling is an essential physiologic function in mammals for body fluid maintenance and blood pressure regulation. Quantitatively, a significant amount of sodium absorption in the kidney occurs in the renal proximal tubule and the Na+/H+ exchanger-isoform 3 (NHE3) is heavily expressed in this nephron segment where it plays a key function in sodium and fluid balance.
By using state of the art physiological, biochemical and molecular approaches, Dr. Di Sole's research aims to understand the molecular mechanisms and transduction signaling that regulate epithelial sodium ion transport. Emphasis is given to NHE3 regulation upon physiological stimuli (e.g., hormones such as adenosine and protein kinase activation) or pathophysiological conditions (e.g., hypertension and hypoxia/ischemia). Her scientific goal is to develop a mechanistic understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology primarily associated with renal salt and fluid handling.

- 147 reviews of Casa Cupula in Puerto Vallarta
Getting to Know Our Staff: Spotlight on Manager Tina Kunkel
July/August 2010
Getting to Know Our Staff: Spotlight on Manager Tina Kunkel
Over and over again, our guests tell us that it's our excellent staff who make their visit really special. Starting in this month's Update, we have a Spotlight on your favorite staff members, starting with Tina. Here are some recent guest comments:
Starting in this month's Update, we have a Spotlight on your favorite staff members, starting with Tina.
What's unique about working at Casa Cupula?
"I've been with the Casa for two fun years now, starting as Operations Manager. Every house has a different style and decoration, every room is different, and it is all surrounded by such beautiful nature. A mainstream all inclusive hotel with hundreds of rooms all alike, simply can't compare (I should know, I have been working at 5 star all inclusive resorts all my life!)"
What's the most rewarding part of your job?
I love the opportunity to meet and get to know every guest, and let me tell you: our guests are great, and a lot of fun. Joining them for our Friday night cocktail (and going out with them afterward) is fun, not work! Having Oscar as Concierge makes for a great partnership since he is a favorite with all our guests for six years. (Oscar will be featured next month!)
What's one of the funniest stories you can relate about a guest?
The real funny stories don't belong into a newsletter. ;) But I will say that by working at the Casa I have been able to make my German girlfriends jealous when they see Facebook pictures of the sexy gay guys that I get to meet where I work!
What's one of your favorite things about Puerto Vallarta that you think guests should know about?
For me Puerto Vallarta is the perfect combination of Nature and Nightlife, my two favorite things. There are so many great bars and restaurants here close to the ocean and almost all in walking distance, and a few blocks back starts the jungle, river and the Iguana territory. And did you know that you can play and cuddle with baby tigers and panthers at the Vallarta Zoo? That's where you can find me on my day off!

Joliet, Ill. - Sept. 6, 2012 - Typically when NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stars Matt Kenseth and Kurt Busch discuss the "field" it has to do with 41 other drivers and isn't named "Lambeau," but on Thursday, Sept. 13 that all changes. Prior to heading to Chicagoland Speedway to kick off the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, Kenseth and Busch will make a friendly wager as the Chicago Bears take on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
Kenseth, a native of Cambridge, Wis., is a life-long Green Bay fan who attends four to five Packers games a year. Busch, who hails from Las Vegas, Nev., but has family in Chicago's Northwest suburbs, is a die-hard Bears fan who will head up to Wisconsin to witness one of the National Football League's most storied rivalries.
Should the Bears win, Kenseth will have to wear a Chicago Bears jersey to Sunday's drivers meeting. Should the Packers emerge victorious, Busch will be sporting the green and gold before the start of the GEICO 400. Unsurprisingly, Busch is not lacking confidence heading into the Week 2 matchup.
"This is a no-brainer. Cutler to Marshall to start it, Urlacher and Peppers to finish it," said Busch, driver of the No. 51 for Phoenix Racing. "A 2-0 start to the season for the Bears will be great, but seeing Kenseth in navy and orange will definitely be an added bonus."
For his part, Kenseth isn't too worried about the matchup.
"Everyone in Chicago is excited right now, but Green Bay is going to bring them right back down to earth," said Kenseth, driver of the No. 17 for Roush Fenway Racing. "I think Aaron Rodgers will do Kurt a favor and get this one over by halftime just so we can have a little extra sleep before we head to Chicagoland Speedway to go racing."
With the Thursday night game Kenseth, Busch and race fans don't need to worry about missing their favorite NFL teams play while racing on Sunday. Fans interested in the game are invited to attend a viewing party at Hollywood Casino hosted by Chicagoland Speedway. The party begins at 6:30 pm ahead of a 7:20 kickoff, but fans are encouraged to arrive early in order to view the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Hauler Parade which will depart from Hollywood Casino at 5:00 pm.
For tickets to the GEICO 400 and the Dollar General 300 powered by Coca-Cola at Chicagoland Speedway, visit www.ChicagolandSpeedway.com<http://www.ChicagolandSpeedway.com> or call 1-888-629-RACE (7223).

The president of the University of Massachusetts is promising more "accountability and transparency" at the five-campus system.
Robert Caret said Thursday in an address to the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce starting next spring the university will issue a public report measuring progress in six key areas developed and adopted by the trustees. They include student experience and success; producing an educated citizenry; research and development enterprise; enhancing social wellbeing; good stewards of resources; and telling and selling the UMass story.
The six categories will include 21 indicators to measure success, including the university's ability to improve student retention and graduation rates and increase external fundraising.

Credit Card Guarantee Policy:
We anticipate your timely arrival and enjoyment of our accommodations and expeditions. A tiny percentage of our reservations fail to arrive and dispute the guarantee being placed on their card. In order that you have a full understanding we are required to have a Policy.
A credit card guarantee is a two way street ..... We guarantee that we will hold a room or expedition seat for you and you guarantee that you will pay.
Our Lodge is a popular destination with wonderful expeditions so if you do not arrive and do not give us sufficient (48 hours) cancellation notice we lose that nights revenue and an opportunity that could have been given to another guest. Our policy is to charge you the full guarantee of one nights stay or expedition..
As we are a small facility, late cancellation or no show of groups or multi room reservations can have a severe impact. In these cases, we reserve the right to charge whatever we cannot recover by resale of the space, up to the full amount of the reservation. Group reservations are generally subject to a 50% non refundable deposit.
Normally your card will not be charged until you check-in or we collect the guarantee, however in certain cases where the Hotel is running at high occupancy, we will charge your card up to 48 hours in advance for one night and for any tours you have booked, this assures us that we have your card number correct and that it is still valid, some people's lives change dramatically during the life of a reservation and they forget to cancel. An invalid or "refused" card automatically cancels the reservation.
Please note that upon check in, when your credit card is charged it must be in your name and match your identification. As is common Hotel policy, we do not accept second party credit cards.
Those who wish to pay cash must pay a security deposit of between $100 and $300 cash, which will be fully refunded after the room is checked. Checkout for cash deposits must be during regular office hours.
Submission of this form constitutes your "Signature" that you agree to the above Considerations and Policy and that you give us your permission to charge your card.
Please click on the "I Agree" button to indicate that you understand and agree to the above conditions to continue.

Residents Informed about Potential Mining on Bald Mountain
It's been a back and forth issue in our area for a while — the idea of mining at Bald Mountain. Experts say it's a great way to create jobs and foster economic growth. But locals are worried about what it'll do to the environment. News Source 8's Katie Zarrilli attended an informational meeting on the topic — and shows us what both sides have to say.

Contributed by Benjamin Wollak, Maxim Tikhov, and Jason Pare, Cisco TAC Engineers.
This document describes the procedure used in order to recover a failed installation of the Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise (UCCE) Diagnostic Framework Portico.
Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:
The information in this document is based on Cisco UCCE Versions 8.5 and 9.0.
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.
After a fresh installation or Refresh Upgrade, the Diagnostic Framework Portico page might not load. Additionally, the Cisco Intelligent Contact Management (ICM) Diagnostic Framework service might not appear in services.msc.
Access these URLs from the local server that Portico runs on in order to reach the Portico Diagnostic page. Ensure that you update the <UCCE-server-IP> and <Instance-Name> place-holders accordingly for your environment.
If the above URLs do not work, refer to these log files for additional information:
If either of these logs reference installer errors, you can review the InstallUtil logs. In order to do this, navigate to C: > Windows > Microsoft.NET > Framework > v2.0.50727 > InstallUtil, and open InstallUtil.INSTALLLOGFILE.
Complete these steps in order to install the Diagnostic Framework manually:
If the service already exists on your machine, you get this message:
An exception occurred during the Install phase.System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The specified service already exists
Installation is performed in a transactioned way; if one of the assemblies fails to install, the installation of all other assemblies is postponed. Uninstall is not transactioned.
Note: After manual installation of the Diagnostic Framework Portico, the processes (in the bottom-right of the next screenshot) might fail to show a status. If installed correctly, the information in the bottom-left of the screenshot should display.
If the ICM Diagnostic Portico ListProcesses and Unified CLI show processes commands do not show the status of ICM processes after manual installation is completed, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > services > DiagFwSvc and verify that the Type is set to 0x0000110 (272).
If a registry change is required, reboot the server in order to commit the change. After the reboot, the status of UCCE processes should display properly.

Gatti, Anna Maria (2002) La mortalità infantile tra Ottocento e Novecento. La Sardegna nel panorama italiano. Quaderni del Dipartimento di Ricerche Economiche e Sociali - Sezione statistica .
Official URL: http://spol.unica.it/dres/e107_files/downloads/qua...
In this paper some factors affecting the spatial and diachronic variability of the infant mortality in Italy are discussed together with the age structure and the seasonal pattern of infant deaths in Sardinia. The first official statistics after unification of Italy, in the nineteenth century, revealed the existence of significant regional differences in the levels of infant and child mortality. Sardinia seems to have been in better conditions since his infant mortality rate appears to be lower compared to all the other Italian regions. This advantage depends crucially on the very low risk for new-borns to die in the first month. However, after that period, between 1 and 12 months, the mortality rate in Sardinia was higher than the one referred to Italy average. A similar pattern of low neonatal and high post-neonatal mortality was observed in some areas of Great Britain (west Cornwall and south-Wales) as well, but it remains difficult to explain.

Time to take notice Birmingham. These Blazers are for real. The end of football season won't mean the end of excitement in the state sport world this year! Come out and support this team no matter who they are playing! Lets go Blazers, take care of Virginia and Arkansas and lets roll into the top 25 and conference play!!
Glad to see that Mr. Irvine's articles are drawing some attention. He is a great beat writer and Im just thankful he has something important to write about right now! Go Blazers!
ANother really good, insightful article! I really enjoy all of Steve's work. Keep it up Steven and Lets go Blazers! I hope tonight that Tulane fans are yelling "Nooooooo not Cooooooooop!!!
Wasnt a pretty win but a win is a win. With a week before the trip to SMU the coaching staff can work on some of the kinks and the guys can rest up alittle bit. I'll take ugly road wins all day long. I totally agree with the earlier post that Fields needs to learn the pg spot better. AJ needs some help.
It's a disgrace that Joe wasnt already included before this. I wish he could get in as a QB but atleast he'll be there. Terrible excuse fot not letting him play QB. Im pretty sure they already know what Tebow can do at QB but he is still playing there.
Im a UAB fan and I just dont understand what AU is doing letting Lebo hang around. With a new arena next year there is no reason for Lebo to even be around. Nice guy or not Its past time for Auburn to take bball more seriously. Fire Lebo now (or after the UK game) and use the rest of the season to evaulate possible coaches. Bama actually did a good job with their situation last year. Auburn bball could be better.
We continue to look impressive and most of the media continues to look in the other direction. It's sad what they are missing. Thanks again Steve for your spot on reporting. I just wish the media would join the growing Blazer Bandwagon. Go Blazers!
I thought Bama had an outside shot at the NCAA tournament this year entering conference play but that is no longer the case. They will probably still right the ship and get to the nit which is not bad in Grant's first year. UAB is head and shoulders above all other state teams right now. They will probably be in the NCAA tournament by themselves.
You wont catch UK as long as Coach Cal is there.
Another close call but another win! Keep it up Blazers! I just hope we are ready to play a full 40 minutes Saturday at Marshall. We have got to start out better offensively. What a thrilling game to be at tonight! The atmosphere was great. Too bad the local radio shows and newspaper (except for Irvine) wont make a bigger deal out of this so that we might could get more fans in Bartow for a team that just matched the best start in school history. Go Blazers!
Alabama and Auburn are the two major BASKETBALL programs?? Right. Anybody with any basketball IQ knows that UAB is the basketball power in the state and I would venture to say that South Alabama might rival Alabama and Auburn for second. And I will admit that UAB is not relevant in football right now, but to say that about basketball is just crazy. But UAB as a medical school, Auburn as an agricultural school, and even Samford for the pharmaceutical school are more important than Alabama is as an eductional University, but they are good in football so who cares right.
Best start in school history baby!!! Go Blazers!!
I'm glad to see this article is getting some attention. I figured the coaches were remaining loyal to the staff. The players and coaches still have a chance to right this ship but it is an extremely uphill climb with what has been an extremely inconsistant team. I don't see CNC being back next year. T Town needs to stay the hell out of our business and let us manage our own affairs. UAB is the largest employer in the state, we should be allowed to hire our own coach.
I too remeber the day that UAB was not allowed to fly out and hire Jimbo, Thanks again for messing in our business Tuscaloosa! It's not like UAB is the largest employer in the state. We need Bamers to tell us what to do. Thanks for nothing Bama
Thanks for the input Tony, I don't know how we would get by without you Ttown folks. While your football team makes money, UAB as an enity makes billions more than U of A could ever dream of. We don't want tax dollars to pay for the stadium. In fact MANY Birmingham businesses are willing to help pay (just like they were for Jimbo Fischer) to help UAB flourish. If UAB could constantly get on the level of an East Carolina, UCF, or Southern Miss in football these businesses have millions to gain. UAB is the largest employer in this state, so I'm sure it can happen with the right tools and not an old run down stadium that has Bryant Denny's hand me downs.
Well Alabama fans sure like to chime in and let their wonderful thoughts be heard. But if I went as long between thoughts as they do I'd probably want to tell somebody else about them as well. I've lost a little respect for Irvine after this article and I've been a big fan of his work. I have been a Callaway supporter. I realize he took over a train wreck and he has cleaned up a lot of the behind the scenes mess. But this team has lost several games on coaching blunders the last two seasons. There is talk about a new stadium being built for us, as the city of Birmingham realizes that they need UAB to do well. I like Callaway, but he may end up being to UAB what Shula was to Bama. He cleaned things up, recruited some good players, and he can now leave peacefully. UAB is at a point to turn the corner and Callaway deserves some credit for getting them to that point. But I don't know any UAB fans who stlll think he can get them over the hump. Irvine had to really look hard to make this article pro-Callaway.
Why is it that the UAB posters sound much more educated than the Alabama ones???? I wonder.
Big win Blazers, keep it up next week in Troy
An Alabama fan using the "Colt McCoy" argument
Way to go Ovie!!!!

Alaska's economy heavily relies on the petroleum industry. The oil and gas sectors account for 1/3 of state employment and 90% of state income. Since Alaska's petroleum reserves are a finite resource, in 1976 the Alaska Permanent Fund was established to support future Alaskans.

Charleston County is one of only two in the state where drought conditions have been officially tagged to be worse. The other is Beaufort County.
The state's Drought Response Committee this week declared the two counties in moderate drought, a status level that means there is an increasing threat of drought. The counties had been in incipient drought, meaning the threat of drought exists.
Berkeley and Dorchester counties remain in moderate drought status.
Below normal rainfalls persists for the eastern half of the state from the Midlands to coast, said Hope Mizell, state climatologist.
In contrast, 26 counties across the Upstate and Pee Dee saw conditions improve.

Hello world. We are EXE.
For some time now, we have been content to lurk the squalid backwaters of the interwebs, stealing your MSN password, flooding your inbox with pictures of dildos, and generally causing mayhem for those who see fit to wave their asses in the air, festooned with bright red bullseyes. We have asserted that you are all hypnotized zombies, as are we, punching at electric buttons in response to signals programmed by other zombies cognitively conditioned by a vast international conspiracy of lizard people and/or rich old white guys. Like our contemporaries, we have sought to cause havoc to expose the absurdity of havoc, and also because there has been no decent mass media entertainment since the N64.
We have felt a push. We have observed the flowering of a dangerous new breed of hubris, which seeks to undermine the stability of our shared existence. We have witnessed fumbling attempts to grasp control of overwhelming forces, and pass them off to salivating masses as fashionable styrofoam. We have been presented a vision of the future that belies the destruction of everything.
We speak to you, now, ByoLogyc.
We have been watching you. We have watched your attempts to reinvent life; your ingenious marketing initiatives; your wholesale disregard for the consequences of power. You claim to champion choice, but the choices are artificially limited into a vision which you have engineered. You claim to offer transparency, but you concoct your dirtiest secrets in dark labs that the public has no awareness of. You claim to represent the realization of consumer desire, but you fail to disclose the dark side of that desire. Some of the world's most preeminent scientists have sounded the alarm on the risks of synthetic biotechnology. The world doesn't listen, because the world shuns intelligence. We will make them listen.
ByoLeaks was, of course, our work. We hope you enjoyed your victory in that department, transient as it was. Your appeal to the usual archaic mechanisms of authority galvanized our membership to spread and divide, like one of your viruses. ByoLeaks has returned, and will continue to do so, in one form after another. However, our current plans extend beyond mere information dissemination. In mere months, ByoLogyc will cease to exist.
You are experts at one kind of technology. We are experts at another. Your technology is the future; but ours is the present. You have seen us, but you do not know us.
United but apart, we hold obscurity.
In obscurity, we gain strength.
In strength, we take action.
In action, we force change.
You've been warned.

Durham schools boost anti-obesity effort
As director of child nutrition for Durham Public Schools, James Keaten is transforming cafeterias into places where fresh fruits and vegetables are replacing junk food.
What may be surprising is that students, for the most part, love it.
Even salads offered in middle schools are being snapped up.
Keaten knows that if students don't like the food offered, they won't eat it. So he tries to make it tasty and interesting.
He plans new things, like bringing in exotic foods such as kiwi, star fruit and jimaca.
The jury is still out on whether students are losing weight, but Keaten said survey cards from students are mostly positive, except for a beef pot pie that got thumbs down and was quickly deleted from the menu.
Ten years ago, most fruits and vegetables offered to Durham students came out of cans, lacking the nutritional value of fresh food and packing sodium and sugar, Keaten said.
The cafeteria is a different world today.
Watermelons, strawberries, blueberries, sweet potatoes, kale and collards often are on the menu. Breakfast tarts are, too, but Keaten replaced the unhealthy version with a whole-grain type that's low in sugar.
In fact, all snack items are now whole grain with reduced fat and sodium. Baked corn chips have muscled out the unhealthy nacho cheese variety.
Fried foods are quickly disappearing. They're already gone from all Durham elementary and middle schools, and no longer will be offered at high schools after this school year.
The schools have piloted a universal free breakfast program for all students. The effort began with 11 schools and has expanded to 22. By next year, Keaten hopes to offer free breakfast at every school.
There's also a new twist on school breakfast.
Instead of requiring students to eat in the cafeteria, students can go straight to their first class and eat breakfast during announcements without interfering with instruction time.
"So they get a meal even if they're late," Keaten said. "Teachers say the kids are settling down faster."
Even better is that twice as many students are eating breakfast under the new program. "In the past, breakfast in the cafeteria was rushed," Keaten said. "This is more relaxed, and every child gets to eat."
New changes to old favorites are a hit, such as sloppy joes. They're now served on a whole-grain bun, with fresh fruits and vegetables.
Flavored milk – loaded with sugar – has been dropped, and strawberry milk will be gone next year. But students are passionate about their chocolate milk, so that will remain, minus the high-fructose corn syrup.
Bottled water also is available for those who want to skip sugary drinks.
"We've seen a tremendous increase in kids choosing fresh fruits and vegetables," Keaten said. "I want the kids to have the things that they like and still eat healthy."
Another important part of the anti-obesity fight is exercise, and the schools are making that a top priority.
At least 30 minutes of daily exercise at school is required for those in kindergarten through eighth grades. That can be done all at once or spread through the day.
"Some do it at recess, and some do school-wide walks," said Kate Turner, wellness coordinator with the Durham Public Schools.
Others might exercise to a DVD or streaming website in the classroom. For younger children, "wiggle time" lasting three to five minutes keeps them from having to sit still for an hour or more.
"Kids love it," Turner said. "The feedback I've gotten is that it's often used as an incentive. So instead of using food as a reward, kids will get extra physical activity time – like a dance party on a Friday afternoon, or extra time outside walking as a group. It's looked at as fun."
Turner said moving toward a healthier school system means making good habits easier to adopt.
"We all know that we need to eat healthy food and exercise," she said. "But the strategy is to find ways to build it into the environment."

Real Housewives of Atlanta
"No, I Don't Take it Lying Down, Even From My Man" and Other $#*! The Real Housewives of Atlanta Say!
Another episode means another week of trying to narrow down the multitude of ridiculousness coming out of the ATL ladies' mouths. Here's our countdown of the top 8 quotes from The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 5, Episode 13, "Make an Ass Out of a Donkey."
8. Kenya Moore: "Excuse me, can you take the knives off the table, just in case?"
It's funny cause it's true.
7. Porsha Stewart: "I have no idea why Kenya's invited me to lunch... probably to poison me."
We have no idea why you would accept!
6. Kenya Moore: "She's the one with the high-top tennis shoes with the green eye shadow and the Diana Ross hairdo from the 1960s."
Better than ashy feet.
5. Phaedra Parks: "The day that Kenya Moore shows me up is the day that this donkey booty goes flat as a pancake and we all know the likelihood of that."
Damn straight.
4. NeNe Leakes: "I am super black and I actually love being black, but I'm sure there's a white woman around here somewhere, she's in me."
She's every woman, it's all in her ...
3. Kenya Moore: "No, I don't take it lying down, even from my man."
Maybe that's the problem?
2. Kenya Moore: "I'm not trying to say Phaedra looks manly ... but maybe she shouldn't be criticizing men in heels."
Says the stallion.
1. Kenya Moore: "Like I'm going to come to you, I'm going to take out a knife and just stab you? In the neck!"
Yeah, this doesn't make you sound crazy.

COLUMBIA CITY - The City of Columbia City has announced that Republic Services/National Serv-All hauling division has agreed to stop all trash and recycling collections for Wednesday, March 6, due to severe weather and unsafe road conditions.
All collections for the rest of the week will be performed one day later than usual.
Wednesday work will be performed on Thursday. Thursday work on Friday and Friday work on Saturday.
The Macbeth Road Landfill will be open for all customers who bring their materials to the Macbeth Road site.
FORT WAYNE – The National Weather Service has declared a Winter Storm Warning for much of northern and eastern Indiana, with the heaviest snowfall predicted in a line from Lake Michigan to East Central Indiana.
Where the storm is expected to lead off with snow and ice, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) crews have already been treating roadways in preparation for the storm. Trucks also have begun pre-treating bridges, ramps and roadways with salt brine, an anti-icing solution.
Projected snow accumulation, according to The National Weather Service is 5 to 7 inches.
However, warmer weather will arrive Thursday into the weekend. This will allow for snow to melt possibly creating flood conditions and hazards.
Whitko Middle School's 8th grade girls basketball team finished its season with a 19-0 record Saturday after winning the NELMSC championship over Edgewood.

COLUMBIA CITY — Cassie Gareiss, of Columbia City, is a 21 year old facing several changes in a short period of time. She is engaged to Colton Streeter and the couple is planning a wedding later this summer.
The couple will also be relocating to Indianapolis.
These events will follow Gareiss' graduation from Grace College where she has earned a degree in graphic design and a minor in photography.
"I know it is a lot of change in a short amount of time, but we are excited," Gareiss said.
COLUMBIA CITY — Work will progress soon on the Liberty Mills Road project, and the taxpayers of Whitley County will pocket savings.
Michael Barton, director of the County Highway Department, updated the Whitley County Commissioners at Monday's meeting.
Barton has held discussions with officials in Allen County about the next step for the project. The price tag for Whitley County is approximately $101,000. Previously, over the next three years, the county was going to have to pay in equal installments.
COLUMBIA CITY — A Columbia City man was sentenced in Whitley County Circuit Court Monday for dealing in methamphetamine. Michael Reaser pleaded guilty and received a 10-year sentence to be served at the Whitley County jail. Four years of the sentence were suspended and six will be served.
Whitley County Circuit Court Judge James Heuer said having Reaser serve the sentence locally would be better since he could perhaps get on work release and help support his child.
FORT WAYNE — Dontay Martin "created his own war zone" in the early morning of Sept. 9, firing dozens of bullets into the night, striking an emergency vehicle.
According to an area newspaper, Martin appeared not to care about what the judge was saying or the lengthy prison sentence he was facing, as was the case during his entire trial last month.
Before Monday's hearing began, and as it continued, Martin sat relaxed in the jury box – looking everywhere but at the judge.

Saunders looking for skill not foreign passport in draft
JUN 04, 2013 12:41p ET
MINNEAPOLIS — Don't expect a new front office regime to empty the contents of the melting pot that is the Minnesota Timberwolves roster.
But take caution against the notion that Flip Saunders and his staff hold international talent as highly-regarded as their predecessors did.
"I don't care where he's from," said Saunders, who replaced Kahn as the organization's president of basketball operations early last month. "If he can play, whether he's from New York City or whether he's from Moscow, Russia, it doesn't really matter."
It's with an eye for certain skills rather than ethnicity, then, that Saunders travels to Treviso, Italy, this week for the 11th annual Adidas EuroCamp, a three-day showcase featuring some of the top international prospects in this year's NBA Draft. He's taken a similar approach when checking out players from the world over on American soil.
Not that Kahn wasn't after specific skill sets. But he took several steps to emphasize international scouting when crafting teams.
His reasoning: seasoned, more mature European professionals are more likely to make an immediate impact in the NBA than a one-and-done rookie from Kansas or Kentucky.
"I was a big proponent of it and thought that it was a necessary step in helping the team here become more competitive over time," Kahn said last summer when asked about international scouting. "I think it's imperative to have a handle on what's over there just as you have a handle on the college side."
Kahn's logic worked in specific cases, but not on the whole. Ricky Rubio and Nikola Pekovic have blossomed into stars, but in the former general manager's time making personnel decisions, the Timberwolves went 89-223.
Injuries and missed draft picks hurt Kahn's cause. But Minnesota's scouting is no doubt on a different trajectory in the wake of his firing.
"I drafted ( Kevin) Garnett as a high school guy, and there's probably no one person I had at his age that is prepared mentally to play, maybe, than he was," said Saunders, the Timberwolves' coach from 1995-2005. "
Garnett was 18, and I was ready to make him our captain at 19 years old.
"They're good because they're good players, not because of where they played."
Saunders made his position even more clear last month when he fired international scouting director Pete Philo, the former director of EuroCamp.
But none of it means an overseas name won't be added this offseason to a roster that currently includes five — six if you count Jose Barea, who was born and raised in Puerto Rico.
Centers Rudy Gobert and Lucas Nogueiera and small forward Sergey Karasev top the list of potential Minnesota need-fillers in the June 27 draft. The class features a number of other international big men that project in the second round and could be viable options to back up Pekovic, assuming the Timberwolves are able to retain the unrestricted free agent.
With both the No. 9 and 26 overall picks, drafting a shooting guard in the first round is Minnesota's most popular option. Should Saunders opt to take a small forward high and further shore up the Timberwolves' shooting deficiencies — they were last in the league in 3-point shooting and 25th in scoring last season — Karasev's a prime candidate.
The 19-year-old represented Russia in the 2012 Olympics and scored 16.1 points per game in Eurocup play this past season. His most notable number: 49 percent from beyond the 3-point line. Croatian Dario Saric and Greek Giannis Adetokundo also rank as first-round-level small forwards on most mock draft boards.
None of them will be in Treviso this Saturday, Sunday or Monday, but Saunders watched Karasev work out in Las Vegas last Friday and apparently liked what he saw.
"Kerasev (sic) reminds you of a smaller (former Bulls star) Tony Kukoc," Saunders said via Twitter ( @Flip_Saunders). "Lefty slight build smooth with ball."
Both Draft Express and NBAdraft.net predict the Timberwolves will pick Karasev with their second first-round pick.
Saunders will get a chance to see Gobert, a Frenchman, and Nogueiera, who's from Brazil and played pro hoops in Spain, this weekend.
Gobert's considered one of the top centers in this draft class behind Kentucky's Nerlens Noel and Maryland's Alex Len and offers sheer size in the paint with a 7-foot-2 frame and 7-8.5 wing span. His biggest knock is a lack of mobility, but that's not always a make-or-break area for a team after a rim protector like Minnesota.
Noguiera emerged as one of Liga ACB's top rebounders and shot blockers this past season, averaging 3.3 blocks per 40 minutes played. Standing 7 feet with a 7-5 wingspan, he moves a bit better than Gobert, according to scouting reports.
With two second-round picks, an international big man could serve as one of Minnesota's later selections. Frenchman Mouhammadou Jaiteh participated in a group workout at the Target Center last week, and Bojan Dubljevic (Montenegro) is scheduled to join about 45 other international draft hopefuls at EuroCamp.
Serbian shooting guard Nemanja Nedovic is on the roster as well, and could be a second-round selection at a position where the Timberwolves are very thin. Draft Express has them taking him with the No. 52 overall pick.

What Is Proper Way To Edit FCP Sequence in Soundtrack Pro??
My dilemma is not using Soundtrack Pro, rather it is the interacation between STP and FCP that I am having problems with. I am desperately hopeful that someone can help explain the proper way to edit a Final Cut sequence in Soundtrack Pro. I tried to follow the directions to export FCP sequences to STP, but my "Send To>Soundtrack Pro File Project" was greyed out so I couldn't use that option, which is what the STP manual states to do. Therefore, I exported my sequence (which has about 100 clips) as a STP Multitrack Project. I spent days editing it in STP, utilizing the Waveform editor (non-destructive). I then saved the project, imported the "stap" file into FCP, laid it down as an FCP track, and it was 35 seconds longer then the original FCP track, yet I added nothing new in STP. I am not sure if I properly imported the FCP sequence into STP to begin with, and futhermore, not sure if I exported the STP project, and subsquent re-import into FCP, correctly. If anybody can give a brief description on how to do this, it would be greatly appreciated.

MAC 239 Eye Shading Brush Photos & Review
Beauty Basics: MAC Eye Brushes
Beauty Basics is a series covering basic products and tools that help to make applying your makeup easier. To view the entire series to date, be sure to visit the beauty basics, or you can view posts within the series about MAC Eye Brushes.
Focus On: MAC 239 Eye Shading Brush
MAC 239 Eye Shading Brush ($24.50) is flat, slightly dome-shaped goat-hair brush. It is, quite possibly, my favorite eye brush ever. I love it and use it often enough to own five of them! I can do everything I need to do eyeshadow-wise with this brush — apply, blend, crease, highlight, lower lash line, smudge… you name it, I can do it. This was the only eye brush I had for well over a year, actually.
For anyone who has the SE version (from MAC's brush sets), the full size is many times better. It's extremely soft while it picks up color easily and deposits it perfectly. It's a dense brush with just enough fluffiness to allow you to blend color while still being able to pack on color for a more intense look if desired. This is the first brush I'd personally recommend to anyone looking to buy their first eye brush!
How do you like to use this brush?

During his sophomore year, Jose Avalos was urged by a principal to drop out of high school. The next year, his brother was told to do the same after entering the 10th grade. A third Avalos brother shared the same fate in 2009.
Administrators at Bowie High School cited excessive tardiness in their efforts to remove the siblings. But now the brothers suspect they were targeted for an entirely different reason: The district was trying to push out hundreds of low-performing sophomores to prevent them from taking accountability tests. The scheme was designed to help El Paso schools raise academic standards, qualify for more federal money and ensure the superintendent got hefty bonuses.
"I thought I was going crazy. I even doubted my sons," said the boys' mother, Grisel Avalos. She said she tried several times to keep her sons in class, but district officials "were on the side of the teachers and the principal."

If you're like me, you spent the weekend watching non-stop Olympic coverage while pounding Diet Cokes and Crudités at your favorite local sports bar. And amongst the many inspiring and patriotic ads playing (notably the Visa commercials that give me chills), Nike has been running the following Basketball Just Do It campaign, featuring Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem as the backdrop to our Redeem Team prepping for The Games.
It might just be one of the best commercials ever. And it also inspired me to scour the internet for some of the best — and worst — National Anthem performances. What follows are my findings. Let's start with the worst.
5. Hillary Clinton and The Secret Microphone. I'm guessing Obama can at least hold a tune, which will really come in handy during those semi-awkward Housing of Urban Development Karaoke Parties.
4. The Police Officer Who Freestyles the Lyrics. Bless those audience members who hold it together.
Still to come: A young, tone-deaf Xtina, The Cactus Cuties, and who will be Number 1?
3. 11-Year-Old Christina Aguilera Butchers American Dream at Hockey Game. She's got a good voice, alright, but perhaps it took some time to mature. This is like a baby whale blowhole tootin' out the oldies. (No idea what that means, but it works.)
2. Contipated Preacher. Two solid minutes of hilarity… it's like Correctol for the soul.
1. The Best 10 Second Rendition Ever… Followed By An Amazing Payoff. A classic video, to be sure. Make sure to watch it til the end, and remember: God is always watching.
Honorable Mention: Roseanne Grabs Crotch and Spits.
5. TIED: Carrie Underwood and Faith Hill for the NFL. Sorry Kelly Clarkson. You might be the original AI gangsta and all, but Carrie beats you here. And dare I suggest she's singing it live? Unheard of these days.
Tied for 5th, is Faith Hill's equally amazing and equally live Superbowl rendition:
4. The Cactus Cuties, Tiny, Harmonic. Try to hate these little girls. We dare you.
3. Marvin Gaye Sexes the Anthem Up. Here is the full performance.
2. Hand Farted Anthem. You have to admit… IT'S AMAZING.
1. Whitney Houston at The Superbowl. It's hard to tell if this was pre-recorded or sung live. But no matter which way you slice it, Houston's Star-Spangled Banner rendition still ranks as my favorite of all time. Go America.
Honorable Mentions: Mariah Carey's Pre-Recorded Version and Beyonce's Awesome Superbowl Rendition (Yes, I like Beyonce. Deal.)
