I use this mainly as my go to hiking shoe but have also gone on backpacking trips with about 43 pounds in my pack they felt AMAZING! They have and continue to be super comfortable for me and are stiff enough to protect my feet from rocks all day long. They are great for hiking in the snow or cold weather and with a wool sock I have stood in snow and my feet stayed warm the whole time. They were true to size. Highly recommend this shoe!

ALEXANDRIA BAY A recent state audit has found that former Alexandria town Supervisor Martha M. Millet wrote several checks to herself without the Town Councils knowledge an accusation Ms. Millet denied Friday.
The audit also reported that 4,500 gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel from the town Highway Department, valued at about $14,600, went unaccounted for during a seven-month period in 2011.
After examining town records from Jan. 1, 2011, through May 31, 2012, auditors with the state comptrollers office found that Ms. Millet improperly made 19 payments totaling $19,919 including 10 payments totaling $1,819 that she made to herself for reimbursement of expenses without the authorization or review by the town board, according to the audit, a copy of which was obtained by the Times.
Ms. Millet said Friday that payment records were always made available for the councils review at every town board meeting and that every expenditure had been approved by the board.
I didnt do anything that wasnt authorized by the board, she said.
The auditors report states: With limited exceptions, the supervisor may not pay any claims unless it has been audited and approved by the board. The payment of claims without board audit or adequate supporting documentation increases the risk that the town moneys could be expended for inappropriate purposes.
Auditors additionally found that 20 payments totaling $5,369 to Ms. Millet and three claims totaling $9,350 for publicity lacked adequate documentation. One particular payment of $1,300 for publicity was not even on file, according to the audit report.
I cant be held accountable for missing records. I havent been there for a year and a half, Ms. Millet said, adding that she has not been consulted during the audit nor had she been given a copy of the audit report, making it hard for her to comment on the specifics.
Ms. Millet lost re-election in November 2011 to longtime Town Councilman Dale D. Hunneyman.
Mr. Hunneyman said Friday that Ms. Millet misused the funds but that there is no proof of theft. He said the town plans to further investigate the matter.
In 2012, the town started requiring a second signature, from the town clerk, on checks so the town supervisor cannot pay claims without the town boards review. Mr. Hunneyman said this was for both his protection and the towns.
State auditors also found that the consumption of 4,500 gallons of the fuel is missing from town records from June 2011 through December 2011, meaning no one knows who used the fuel.
The highway superintendent did not ensure the towns fuel supplies were adequately safeguarded and accounted for, the audit said. The incomplete fuel use logs, absence of perpetual inventory records and lack of inventory reconciliations places the town at risk of the unauthorized use or theft of the towns fuel.
Mr. Hunneyman said this is another case the town hopes to resolve.
Since October, Alexandria has been using a computerized fuel dispensing system that accounts for all gas purchases and use at the fuel station, intended for use by town vehicles.
This is not the first time auditors revealed misuse of fuel at the town Highway Department.
Independent auditors hired by the town in 2008 had found that Ms. Millets predecessor, former Supervisor F. Sampie Sutton, took 6,700 gallons of fuel from the towns fuel supply over four years, but never reimbursed the town.
Mr. Sutton at that time denied stealing gas from the town and blamed Highway Superintendent David H. Bain for telling the town board that it would save the town money if I used the towns fuel instead of having Mr. Sutton claim mileage reimbursements.
Additionally, the state audit report suggests that the town of Alexandria has been violating state law against donating tax money to private entities.
Auditors said the town made payments totaling $60,000 to the Alexandria Bay Chamber of Commerce and $6,087 to the chambers vendors without entering into written contracts stipulating what services or benefits the town was to receive for the payments.
In addition, the chamber occupies a town-owned building; however, the town does not charge the chamber any rent, the report said.
Because the town is not receiving fair and adequate compensation, these transactions could be considered unconstitutional gifts of public funds, auditors said.
Mr. Hunneyman said the town will enter into appropriate contracts and lease agreements with the Chamber of Commerce as the auditors have suggested, but stressed that the town government has been helping the chamber to benefit the community at large.
He said the town has been using part of its bed tax revenue to help the chamber advertise and promote tourism in the area, and thus improve the local economy in the long run.
The town in 1998 adopted a resolution to allow the chambers use of the Market Street building after determining that it was in the overall public interest for the Alexandria Bay Chamber of Commerce to maintain an office that would be visible and accessible to the public, Mr. Hunneyman told state auditors in a letter written in response to the report.
Last, auditors said that the towns hiring of town attorney Joseph W. Russells law firm Menter, Rudin & Trivelpiece, Syracuse to provide legal services outside the scope of those performed by the town attorney poses a possible conflict of interest.
The board should ensure that the town does not enter into any contract in which a town officer or employee has a prohibited interest, state auditors said.
Even if a contract with the town attorneys firm is found not to violate the states General Municipal Law, they said, the town should consider the possible appearance of impropriety and the possible consequences of judicial review of such a contract.
Instead of keeping Mr. Russell as a salaried employee, Supervisor Hunneyman said, the town government will enter into a new contract with his law firm for legal services.
Overall, Mr. Hunneyman said, the state audit has been a learning experience for the town.
They were great people to work with and showed us how to do things better, he said.

Are visual program control flow diagrams and languages which support that used for larger serious programs? Why not? They seem like a nice overview of the code.
In the thread What software programming languages were used by the Soviet Union's space program? a visual language is mentioned (Drakon) and I wondered why such approaches aren't used more often?
Is there nothing a visual control flow representation (I don't mean class diagrams etc.) which are 1-to-1 with code can help compared to typing in letters in an editor?

OLD ORCHARD BEACH, Maine(NEWS CENTER) -- High tide Saturday morning was a concern for many in Old Orchard Beach during the height of the snowstorm.
Waves were crashing into the pier during and after high tide. Nearby residents reported the water came right up to where the beach meets the road, but there was no spill over or widespread flooding on nearby streets.
Heavy snow and driving winds made travel difficult in Old Orchard Beach all day Saturday. The few cars that were on the road somehow made their way down to the pier to check out the waves.
"It's pretty crazy out here," Old Orchard Beach resident Alex Woodworth-Beck said. "I come to the beach every night, and this is the craziest I've seen it by far."
The high winds created massive snow drifts near the ocean, which might have helped prevent any widespread flooding.
People in town who did venture out during the storm said while it did dump a record amount of snow in some places, it was nothing they couldn't handle.
"We've seen this before. It's like the days of old. We've been lucky we haven't had a lot of bad storms like this in the past few years," Old Orchard Beach resident George MacDonald said.
While the snow winded down late in the afternoon Saturday, the widespread cleanup effort was expected to get underway Sunday.

Information spreads quickly online, especially in the age of social networking. The 'Truthy' project, based at Indiana University, seeks to map the spread of ideas on services such as Twitter and help identify artificially-created memes. By examining how messages get bounced from one member of a network to another, and by examining the context around those messages, the researchers think they can identify 'astroturfing,' the creation of false grass-roots political movements. Want to participate in an mini-experiment? Tweet using the key words '#truthy, @scifri, and @truthyatindiana' and the project leaders will try to track their spread.

I did not see any place to place this question so i'm going to place it here.
I did want my bootloader on the MBR and i want it on the first sector of my hard drive. How do i put it on the first sector without reinstalling RH?? I do not want to reinstall it or delete any partitions and no i did not create a bootloader floppy disk. Please reply back. Thanks guys.
That is the default option for when you install Red Hat
trickster: I really need you to help me. I just reinstalled RH and i put it on the first sector of my hard drive and now RH won't boot up. It's only booting right into Windows XP and no bootloader manager. Why is that?? Please reply back. Thanks trickster.
ok. Does anyone else know why Redhat won't boot?? Please reply back and help me if you can. Thanks guys.
Reinstall RedHat again and put it on the MBR instead.
Or you might want to try Mandrake. You might find it easier.
One, I don't have Mandrake yet. 2. Why do i have to put it on the MBR?? I want to see how well it will work on the first sector of the hard disk. Please reply back. Thanks.
When your computer boots up from your hard disk, the first place it looks is the MBR for instructions. Right now, your MBR is saying to your computer "boot directly into Windows." If you reinstall RedHat, and put the bootloader on the MBR, this will override the old data with RedHat's bootloader (which will give you a choice between Windows and Linux).
Judging by what I've seen from you around these forums, I think you might really like Mandrake. It's the easiest distro I've ever tried.
Then why the hell do they have a choice for the bootloader to boot off of the first sector of the hard disk?? That is really strange i think. I'm going to make a reply to see what's up with trickster and the CD's.

DOG HEALTH So you have your new puppy picked out. There are quite a few shots, treatments and examinations that will keep the newest member of your family healthy.
DOG FUN Walking your dog is not only crucial to keeping him healthy and happy, it strengthens the bond between your canine friend and his caregiver. There are a lot of obstacles out there. Don't forget these simple tips to keep your walk fun and safe in the outside world.
HEALTH The same techniques that physiotherapists use to treat a variety of injuries and conditions in humans have been adapted to suit animals with great success. Family pets, show dogs, and working dogs can all benefit greatly from physiotherapy. Dogs whose activities involve a lot of agility are especially susceptible to the types of problems that physiotherapy can address.
FIRST TIME OWNERSBringing a dog into your family is a decision where many people don't realize it's magnitude until after they have the dog. There are a number of things that you need to research before you decide to purchase a dog, and it starts right in your own home.
HEALTH Many believe that a dog and a new baby cannot happily coexist, so therefore the dog has to go. This is not necessarily the case. A new baby does not mean you have to abandon your dog.
DOG TRAINING It's not enough to simply walk the dog through the front door and hope he will acclimate to his new surroundings; you have to teach him how to interact with the new people and items in his environment.
PET-NEWSWORTHY If you're considering adding a pet to your home in 2015, you're in very good company. As many as 71.4 million homes are expected to include a pet in 2015. According to the American Pet Product Association, pet families have increased from 56% of households in 1988 to 62% this year.
FIRST TIME OWNERS When you bring a new puppy into your home, it's a time of great excitement for everyone involved: you, your kids, your neighbors, and even the dog. Here's our guide on what to expect and how to handle the transition without losing your mind.

I was tempted to think that this was a joke, that Mr. Bean, ol' Rowan Atkinson, tricked his insurance company into paying $1.4 million to fix a car he paid a warm 1 mill for in 1997.
His maroon McLaren F1 was severely damaged after Edmund Blackadder hit a slippery patch. He is lucky that the car is highly collectable. I just saw one in the television show Person of Interest, as the car of a billionaire techie.
Still, I will not be investing in one. I have to think of gas mileage on my long commute.

LONDONDERRY TOWNSHIP – Three Mile Island Unit 1 returned to service yesterday at 4:28 a.m. when operators connected the plant's turbine generator to the regional power grid. The unit was taken off-line on Aug. 22 to make repairs to a heater element on the plant's pressurizer tank. The heater element was replaced, inspected and tested.

Three Mile Island is located about 12 miles south of Harrisburg, Pa. The plant generates 852 megawatts of carbon free power - enough electricity for about 800,000 homes. Electric customers were not affected by the plant being off -line.
Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) is the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately $33 billion in annual revenues. Headquartered in Chicago, Exelon has operations and business activities in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada.

It appears there is not enough room in the skies over Northern New York for dueling air medical services.
Because of the increased competition between Mercy Flight Central and LifeNet, the Marcellus-based nonprofit Mercy Flight will offer its last fixed-wing flight in the north country on Monday.
Mercy Flight President and CEO Neil G. Snedeker said calls for the nonprofits interfacility transfer of patients via its small airplane plunged when LifeNet, a for-profit company, moved into the north country last year.
Because we lost so many calls because of LifeNet, we couldnt just break even, Mr. Snedeker said. Its the price of doing business. Heres the reality we used to do, since 2004, about 70 airplane transports per year, and about 75 percent of that was in the north country. There just wasnt enough call volume. When LifeNet came in last June, our fixed-wing call volume dropped dramatically.
Mr. Snedeker said Mercy Flight Centrals base price of $9,700 with a $50-per-loaded-mile fee for an average fixed-wing flight for an interfacility transfer from Samaritan Medical Center to Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, was better for patients, as it was significantly less than a $30,000 to $40,000 bill from LifeNet for helicopter service for the same distance.
The cheaper for us to fly the airplane, the cheaper it is for patients, Mr. Snedeker said.
As of Monday, Mercy Flight Central will do only helicopter transfers in the north country. The number of Mercy Flight helicopter runs also has decreased since LifeNet arrived; Mercy Flight used to handle about 70 helicopter flights per year, but is down to about 20.
Since Mercy Flight Centrals turbo-prop airplane began service in 2004, Mr. Snedeker said, the agency received many requests for the transfer of patients from the north country to Syracuse, Burlington, Vt., New York City, Boston, Cleveland or Columbus, Ohio.
When in use, the nonprofits helicopter is out of service for about six hours, counting travel time from the Marcellus base to the north country, then to a hospital and finally the return to Marcellus. More time equates to more money; Mr. Snedeker said its cheaper to fly the airplane than the helicopter, because the plane can cover longer distances more quickly.
Mercy Flight charges a $13,995 base rate with an average of $119 per loaded mile per helicopter flight. LifeNets base rate alone is more than $20,000, and its per-mile fee is about $200 in Northern New York.
Mr. Snedeker said free enterprise allows for competition, but he claimed LifeNet, which opened bases at Watertown, Potsdam and Fort Drum in 2012, has suffocated Mercy Flight, which could not compete.
LifeNets medical helicopters were brought to the north country by Air Methods, Englewood, Colo. Air Methods spokeswoman Tracey Budz said LifeNet establishes bases only in communities where we have been invited and there is demand for the service.
Air Methods is always evaluating opportunities for new bases where there is an unmet need, Ms. Budz said.
Although Mr. Snedeker said he fears LifeNet will circle around Mercy Flights bases near Utica, Canandaigua and Marcellus, Ms. Budz said there are no firm plans to host a Syracuse LifeNet base at this time.
LifeNet has had job postings for positions in Dexter, Potsdam, Fort Drum and Syracuse, where there is no base, throughout the past two months.
Mr. Snedeker said additional LifeNet bases in the proximity of Mercy Flight Central bases could further limit what the nonprofit can do.
Ms. Budz said that from June 1, 2012, through May 31, LifeNets Watertown and Potsdam bases have received 629 requests for service.
Low call volume isnt just a Mercy Flight Central problem. LifeNet officials have said low call volume is one contributor to the corporations hefty price tag for flights. LifeNet experiences a lower number of calls through its Northern New York bases, compared with other areas throughout the nation.
Each LifeNet base also is staffed, is equipped with critical-care supplies and has other related costs. Air Methods spends $1.5 million to $2 million per base, per year.
Mercy Flight Centrals cost is $1.4 million, Mr. Snedeker said.

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II

"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."

By FRANK M. PELTESONLas Vegas, Nev.
In early November, an editorial calling for Donald Rumsfeld to be replaced as secretary of defense, showed up simultaneously in the Army Times, Navy Times, Air Force Times, and Marine Corps Times. Distributed to members of the U.S. armed forces throughout the world, these publications stated that President Bush must "face the hard bruising truth [that] Rumsfeld has lost credibility with the uniformed leadership, with the troops, with Congress, and with the public at large."
Only days earlier, Mr. Bush stated that he wanted both Rumsfeld and Vice President Cheney to remain in their posts for the remaining two years of his administration. As he spoke, more troops were being killed and wounded in a war that has degenerated into a civil conflict between Muslim factions competing for power.
Then, one day after the Republicans suffered what Mr. Bush himself called a "thumping" on election day, Rumsfeld's resignation was announced. To replace him, Mr. Bush turned to Council on Foreign Relations veteran and former CIA Director Robert Gates, a move that does not bode well for the troops caught in a civil war between Islamic factions.
Iraq is no place for American forces no matter who is secretary of defense.

Speaking of tricked out espresso setups, here is mine. Relatively humble compared to many other machines, but does the trick for me.
On the left is a Rancilio doserless Rocky grinder.
The machine is a Rancilio Silvia hacked with a dual-setpoint Watlow 96 PID controller that regulates both the brewing and steaming temperatures. This was fairly tricky to install, because you have to partially remove the front panel of the machine to gain access to the steam switch (you also have to remove the front and internal splashplates and the top and back panels, but that is not so tricky). Once installed, however, it's been sweet. All I have to do is turn on the steam switch like normal and the PID automatically kicks over to the higher setpoint for steaming. The other material modification I did on the machine is to replace the regular steam tip with a three-hole steam tip.
As it so happens, I have three portafilters. Overkill, I know, but I acquired them at different times. In the machine is a bottomless portafilter with a La Marzocco triple basket inside. That's what I use pretty much all the time. Over on top of the knock box is a regular (with bottom) double spout Rancilio pro portafilter. I got this when I first bought the machine, because it was considerably heavier than the stock portafilter. This was back before people were doing the bottomless portafilter thing. Also on the knock box is the stock portafilter, retrofitted with a single spout. I really never use this for its intended purpose, and keep it mostly fitted with a blank insert for backflushing.
On top are some Miscela D'Oro branded espresso and cappuccino cups. I have cups from a number of different brands, but I like the Miscela D'Oro ones the best because they are the thickest. Especially the espresso cups, which are the thickest I have ever found.
Down on the tray are my tampers. On the right is the Ergo-Packer from Espresso Vivace (aka "old busted") and on the left is my new C-Ripple tamper from Reg Barber (aka "new hotness").
As you can see, the whole thing is on some Metro Shelving, and I store some sheet pans underneath. This is really convenient when it comes to cleanup, because I can just sweep away any coffee grinds and the fall through onto the sheet pan, where they are easily dumped into the sink.
Who's next?

Dr. Evan R. Ransom's Ratings
I went to Dr. Ransom for plastic surgery on my nose after having skin cancer removed the day before. I was very nervous at first about the procedure but after meeting Dr. Ransom for the first time he made me feel really comfortable. He explained everything and answered any questions I had. At one point I wasn't sure if it was healing properly when I was home and I called him and he told me to come right in and saw me right away. He reassured me that everything was fine. Dr. Ransom is not a doctor that sees you for five mintues and then runs out to the next patient. He takes his time and treats you like a family member. He is a very friendly doctor whom I would recommend to anyone needing plastic surgery. He is one of the best!!

I was a patient of Dr. Ransom as he completed his fellowship in New York. Dr. Ransom performed a facial laser procedure and injectables - and I am very pleased with the results. Dr. Ransom provided excellent care and follow-up. I would recommend Dr. Ransom without reservation.

Dr. Ransom hands have been blessed by God! When I first went to Dr. Ransom I was filled with anxiety, fear and many questions. We all want to look better but when we actually decide to take that first step, many questions come to mind. How will I look, how long will it take, etc. etc. Dr. Ransom took his time in answering all my questions and concerns. He kept in constant contact with me and always put me at ease. I'm am 100 percent satisfied and I would recommend him wholeheartedly

Dr. Ransom performed facial cosmetic surgery for me as a fellow program with Dr. Jacono. He did an excellent job and achieved natural and attractive results. He is a very attentive doctor, making himself available for any questions and concerns. I received many compliments after my surgery. I would recommend his work highly.
