JCPL Kids
We do lots of Baby Times here at the library and I always have parents asking what are the "best books" for babies. This could be a very long list, but I found a list from Parents Magazine that shows the 25 must-have books for babies that I agree is a pretty good one!
Check-out the list to see how many you recognize!
A good baby book can become a classic instantly and the classics stand the test of time. If you find some you would like to try out with your baby, look for them in our catalog and place a hold to pick-up at your local library!
Learn some new songs and rhymes to share with your young child and help them build their early literacy skills too! StoryBlocks, a project of Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy, has just added some new videos for you to check out. There are songs and rhymes appropriate for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers, and some in Spanish, too! If you watch closely, you might even see a few JCPL staff members in some of the videos!
What are your favorite songs and rhymes to share with your young child? Let us know - your favorite may show up as a StoryBlocks video in the future!
Pop in a toddler music CD for a smoother car ride. Try Today I Was a Cat, by Mary Kaye. The kids will love the story-like lyrics and the grownups will like the indie-folk rock sound!
Children's book author Audrey Wood was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on August 12th, 1948. When she was a toddler, she would watch her father repaint murals for the Ringling Brothers Circus in Florida. In fact, many of the circus performers grew to be her friends. She can remember being rocked in the arms of the fat lady and sitting in the lap of the world's tallest man when she was a kid!
Both Audrey Wood's father and grandfather were artists and by first grade she decided to become one too! By fourth grade she wanted to become a children's book author. Audrey Wood painted, danced, acted, and played music as a child. She and her sisters put on plays for their neighbors and friends in their basement and charged 25 cents for each person who came to the show! Dr. Seuss is her favorite author. She once got into trouble in school for crossing out his name on a book and putting her own in its place!
In 1969, Audrey Wood married Don Wood. He is also a children's book author and illustrator. They have written many books together; you will see some of these below. It wasn't until her son, Bruce, was born that Wood decided to pursue her goal to become a children's author. Since then she has become quite a successful one! Check out some of her books below, all of which are available from the library.
Bright and Early Thursday Evening: A Tangled Tale
The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear
Now Showing!
A fun family movie in theaters now: Despicable Me 2 - Gru (Steve Carell) is recruited by the Anti-Villain League to help deal with a powerful new super criminal. What a fun sequel to the first Despicable Me (2010) where Gru who claimed to be a criminal mastermind used a trio of orphan girls as pawns in a grand scheme. Instead of villainous glory he finds their love is profoundly changing him for the better. With the jokes flying (for adults, too), "Minions" running amuck and sharp graphics, kids find both of these movies so much fun!
There was a showing of Despicable Me at the Evergreen Library in July to a very enthusiastic crowd of young patrons.
Every third Saturday at 1:30 p.m. Evergreen Children's staff presents a family movie in their series, Saturday at the Movies. We serve popcorn and offer drinks while families watch movies on the big screen in the meeting room.

LISBON - Robert O. McNeil will begin serving as a member of the Lisbon Town Council in January, according to an unofficial tally of write-in votes from the Nov. 5 election.
Mr. McNeil declared himself a write-in candidate in September and began canvassing the community for votes.
St. Lawrence County Democratic Elections Commissioner Jennie H. Bacon said Mr. McNeil took home 361 write-in votes out of a total of 386.
Absentee votes will be included in the total when the election results are certified later this month, Mrs. Bacon said, but only 17 absentee write-ins were counted. Mr. McNeils closest rival was Susan Washburn, who received 10 write-in votes.
Mrs. Bacon said the election results will be certified by Thanksgiving.
Sarah I.R. Green, who also campaigned as a write-in candidate, took home one write-in vote. Michael OBrian, H. Allan Chester, Vincent Winters, Alan Kio, Amber Ball and Leslie Lawton also each received one write-in vote.
Mr. McNeil is no newcomer to political office.
Mr. McNeil served as Lisbon town supervisor in the early 1980s and was a member of the county Legislature before becoming county treasurer in 1986. Mr. McNeil held the treasurers post until 2010. He currently chairs the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency.
Mr. McNeils election to the town council fills the second of two seats that were open in the Nov. 5 race. Incumbent Republican Gary J. Jarvis took home 633 votes, including absentee ballots. Ruth C.O. Green, running as an independent, took home 163 votes after seven absentees.

Submission Is it time to knock infected PCs off the internet?-> 1
nk497 writes: "Malware could block your access to the internet – but in some cases by those on the right side of the security fence, who are deploying tactics such as blocked ports, letters in the mail and PCs quarantined from the net to combat the most damaging threats. The DNS Changer clean up saw some PCs prevented from accessing the web. Should such tactics be used more often to prevent malware from spreading — or is that taking security a step too far?"

Despite denunciations, a lawsuit, and pleas for him to bow out of the event, on August 6 Texas Governor Rick Perry joined tens of thousands of Christians at Houston's Reliant Stadium to pray for a spiritual turnaround among the citizens and leadership of America.
Ignoring accusations that the event was little more than a political maneuver designed to endear him to the Evangelical Right in an as-yet unannounced presidential bid, Perry stood before an estimated 30,000 participants in The Response: A Call to Prayer for a Nation in Crisis, declaring: "Like all of you, I love this country deeply. Thank you all for being here." In his 10-minute prayer, Perry beseeched God, saying, "Father, our heart breaks for America. We see fear in the marketplace. We see anger in the halls of government and as a nation, we have forgotten who made us, who protects us, blesses us ... we cry out for your forgiveness."

Oriental 3D Dragon Face Roof Tile
Can anyone help ID this item? I purchased this piece at an Estate Sale. The owner was in the Vietnam War and brought home a lot of very unusual items. One of the items I purchased is a very old ceramic opiate pipe.
However, I digress, this tile is of a dragon, it is 3D, does a litlle missing porcelain around the sides. Otherwise in great condition. I love it. I would like any information that anyone can provide. I was wondering if it is a roof tile? I would love to know the age, value, etc.....
Thank you most kindly in advance for any help!

It looks like a decorative hanging tile to me. Roof tiles won't generally be that flat on the back and will have holes to attach it to the roof with copper wire. Your tile looks like it is made to be mounted on a piece of wood or flat against the wall. It is also very decorative, more so than the usual tiles I have seen. As far as country of manufacture my guess is China. Value, I would say between 30-50 dollars if it isn't signed.

2007 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class Ownership Costs
Cost of Ownership data coming soon
There is no cost of ownership information available for the 2007 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL550 Coupe at this time
2007 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL550 Coupe cost of ownership data is powered by
Ownership costs are the costs to purchase and operate a vehicle over a period of time. Understanding these costs may enable you to save money and help you make a wiser decision when choosing your next new car.
Regardless of the "value" claims that you may read in car reviews or hear in advertisements, the economic value of a car is based on how much it will cost to own and operate compared to its purchase price. In a sense, purchase price is "what you pay" and the ownership costs are "what you get."
Ownership costs can differ greatly. The cost to own and operate two different vehicles with equal purchase prices can differ by thousands. Of course when evaluating ownership cost for used cars and trucks, a vehicle's condition and mileage will greatly impact ownership costs, therefore it's important to compare similar vehicles in similar condition for an accurate picture.

Basic Warranty:
The basic warranty covers everything except items that are subject to wear and tear or replacement in the ordinary course of vehicle ownership, such as oil and air filters, wiper blades and brake pads. Tires and batteries are often excluded, but usually have their own warranty provided by the manufacturers of those items. Emissions equipment is required by Federal law to be covered for five years or 50,000 miles.
Drive Train Warranty:
In some cases the drive train warranty continues after the basic warranty has expired. This part of the warranty covers most of the parts that make the vehicle move, including the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft. Like the basic warranty, consumable parts such as hoses and belts are not covered. However, most of the internal parts of the engine, such as the pistons and bearings, which are also subject to wear and tear, are covered by the drive train warranty.
Roadside Assistance:
Many manufacturers provide a service that will rescue you if your car leaves you stranded, even if it's your fault. Lock yourself our of your car? Run out of gas? Got a flat tire? A call to the manufacturer's toll-free number will result in somebody showing up who can help you out. There is a huge variance in these programs so check ahead of time to see what is covered and what you will have to pay for.
Rust or Corrosion Warranty:
Rust or Corrosion Warranty: This warranty covers the vehicle's sheet metal, and protects you from rust and corrosion that are severe enough to cause a hole - surface rust is not covered. However, if you keep your car washed and waxed rust shouldn't be a problem.

It was the Sabres' (13-15-4) third straight win in a run that began with an overtime victory in Montreal on Tuesday.Ryan Miller stopped 39 shots in this one for Buffalo.
Michael Ryder scored the lone goal for Montreal (20-6-5), and Carey Price made 16 saves.
The Sabres broke the scoreless deadlock midway through the second period during a 5-on-3 power play. With Mike Blunden and P.K. Subban in the box, the Sabres tried to find a shooting lane. Defenseman Christian Ehrhoff found one at 10:25, firing a shot from the point that deflected in off Vanek for his 15th of the season.

This all sounds good, but I have to warn you. Installing and setting up these systems is going to be the easy and fun part. Supporting them later on is going to be a royal pain in the ass.
Just think about it. Saturday morning you're hanging out with your friends. You get a call from the doctors office that their server is down, they can't get their patients' records. You have to drive an hour across town to get to the office. It is probably just a minor fix, but you can't even charge them for the trip because you were there 2 days ago to work on the server.
These are the real life scenarios. Make sure you prepare for them or abandon the plan altogether.

Video: Multiple cars vandalized at prayer meeting
EVERGREEN - Police are investigating a mysterious case in Evergreen where paint stripper was thrown on cars parked in a church parking lot.
On Jan. 29 between 4:30 and 6 p.m., rocks were thrown through the windows of the Mountain Light Unity Church at 27054 N. Turkey Creek Rd in Evergreen. The prayer group discovered the damage as they arrived around 6 p.m.
While the prayer group was meeting between 6 and 7 p.m., someone poured a gel-based paint stripper over 17 cars in the parking lot of the church. The stripper took the paint down to the bare metal of the cars, causing extensive damage.
There were also scratches on many of the cars. Victim estimates put a total value of the damage at over $43,000. That estimate is expected to climb after actual body shop estimates are completed.
Anyone who has knowledge of this crime is asked to call the Jeffco Sheriff's Office tip line at 303-271-5612. Crime Stoppers collects information on unsolved crimes or individuals wanted by the police. Callers can remain anonymous. The tipline is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can call 720.913.STOP (7867) if you have a tip. A correct tip can result in a reward up to $2,000.

Addressing the requests of the pros and building on the unprecedented success of its namesake, the EOS 5D Mark III captures HD video with a level of sophistication on par with professional movie cameras offering phenomenal performance on a DSLR. It offers both All-I and IPB compression, supports H.264/MPEG-4 AVC High Profile, and automatically splits files greater than 4GB (FAT specifications) for extended recording without interruption. It offers the option of timecoding during recording only (Rec Run) or at all times (Free Run), useful for multi-camera shoots. It also features improved sound recording adjustment capabilities, offering 64-step volume control accessible through the Quick Control screen during video shooting, plus a dedicated headphone jack for convenience in shooting. The CMOS sensor's new drive system significantly increases image processor performance, reducing color artifacts and moiré (a common problem that occurs in scenes with horizontal lines), and ensures that the EOS 5D Mark III can record at a number of frame rates up to ISO 25600 in H mode.
|Compresses each frame. Although the file size is larger than IPB, each frame is not affected by the previous and next frames, making it suitable for editing and extracting frames.
|Compresses the movie frame by referencing the previous and next frames. High compression is used, making it suitable for recording long movies.
|Recording Time based on 8GB Memory Card
|Maximum Record Time
|29 min. 59 sec.
|ALL-I Record Time
|11 min. at 1920 x 1080
|12 min. at 1280 x 720
|IPB Record Time
|32 min. at 1920 x 1080
|37 min. at 1280 x 720
|1920 x 1080 (Full HD)
|1280 x 720 (HD)
|640 x 480 (VGA)
With the new firmware update, the EOS 5D Mark III can record clean, uncompressed digital video with embedded time code over HDMI output while simultaneously displaying the video on the rear LCD display and recording to internal CF or SD cards. Combined with an improved color sampling of YCbCr 4:2:2 8-bit video, this firmware update adds efficiency to video editing, improves color grading options, and enhances on-set monitoring.
The new "mirroring" feature via the HDMI output allows video to be displayed on the rear LCD screen with or without scene and camera information while also outputting a clean video signal to a monitor or external recorder. An external recorder not only enables a video signal devoid of compression artifacts, but also allows a choice of preferred edit-ready codec, the ability to shoot in a variety of frame rates and bit rates, and longer record time. Combined with the heightened color correction capabilities as a result of the expanded color space, post-production workflows will be smoother and offer users greater control and quality. With external recorders it is also possible to use a variety of on-set monitoring solutions, which facilitate real-time viewing of EOS 5D Mark III video with the Rec. ITU-R BT. 709 color matrix. Additionally, it will now be possible to synchronize the start and stop of EOS 5D Mark III video capture with the start and stop of the external recorder.

|Researchers made news this week with findings that could point the way to a vaccine for breast cancer. The experimental vaccine, which targets the alpha-lactalbumin protein found on many breast cancer cells, appeared to protect genetically-engineered lab mice from developing breast cancer. However, the study was very limited in nature -- only on a small number of mice -- with any human experiments still far in the future. We'll talk about the work, and how it fits into the larger picture of breast cancer research. How much do we understand about how cancers are formed and grow?

Okay, so we all want to keep our fragile and costly devices protected. But have we gone a little too far in making crazy brick-like carrying cases to keep them safe? mentalKase, a new line of protective iPhone cases on Kickstarter, has led us to conclude yes and no.
At first glance, we completely pshawed the mentalKase. Branded as a sort of ultimate outdoorsman's carrying case, It looks like a really big silicone skin with a handle, wrapped around a slightly smaller silicone skin. Combined, the two layers practically double the size of your iPhone – talk about bulky!
But the case (which is compatible with iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S with an iPhone 5 model in the works) isn't actually silicone. Its inner layer is made of TPU, while the large outer layer is made of micro-cell rubberized foam (MCRF), which mentalKase says "protects sensitive electronics from shock and impact" like nothing else.
And while their video shows someone dropping their iPhone, clad in a mentalKase, from a two-story rooftop, and another person chucking theirs into the air like a juggler, one wonders if any normal person would ever need protection for such activities? Nonetheless, the the iPhones survive, so at least we know the mentalKase does what it's supposed to.
Another little drawback to the mental case is that, while the outer layer allows access to the headphone jack, no mention is made of any of the other iPhone ports, so we're not really sure how you're supposed to charge with it on. Nevermind that it's not particularly attractive, though you can remove the outside and use just the inner layer.
It's also behind some other heavy-duty iPhone accessories, like the Lifeproof, and OtterBox's upcoming Armor case, in that it's not waterproof. But it will float to the surface, for whatever good that does you.
There are some nice features to the mentalKase, however. You can use it with your phone's screen out or flipped in, for extra protection. And the outer layer can be removed and converted into an iPhone desktop stand.
Also, the MCRF material used for the outer is anti-microbial. But, just as we feel it's a bit of an exaggeration to try and protect your phone lest it fall off a roof, we also think it's a little phobic to need a sterile case. Really, has your phone case ever given you a cold?
Over all, the mentalKase looks like a pretty decent product, and seems to deliver on what it promises. So, in that sense, it's not really going overboard if you happen to need a massive, germ-resistant iPhone case that can survive a game of "toss that phone" and can float like a fishing bobber.
But if you're looking for everyday use, we'd probably recommend a more streamlined case with a slightly lower level of shock absorption, something that'll actually fit in your pocket.
Still, it just goes to show that, for every person and every lifestyle, there's an iPhone accessory out that's just right.

|Samaritan's Purse Relief Arrives in Colorado
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 17 September 2013 07:14
Samaritan's Purse crews arrived late yesterday in Colorado to help with flooding that has claimed a number of lives and disrupted thousands more. The tractor trailers of aid and construction goods left Saturday evening from North Wilkesboro for the trek to the foot of the Rockies,
where there are thousands displaced—many reported missing. The trucks are following two Samaritan's Purse disaster response experts who arrived in the early morning hours of Saturday, and began meeting with local officials and churches. The teams have set up and are beginning their various mission tasks. The Samaritan's Purse website says their base is in Niwot, Colorado, within 15 minutes of the hard-hit communities of Lyons, Clark, and Longmont. Rocky Mountain Christian Church has volunteered to be the host church to house current disaster response staff, with Samaritan's Purse providing tools and equipment to the local churches already engaged in relief efforts, and begin helping homeowners. The area has had more than 15 inches of rain over the past week, about half the amount the area normally receives during an entire year. More than six inches of it came down on Thursday, causing floodwaters to dramatically rise, washing away homes and vehicles, washing out roads. Samaritan's Purse reports that more than 19,000 homes have been damaged or destroyed, a number of people have been killed, and over 1,200 were still unaccounted for while thousands have been driven from their homes.

Real Salt Lake's travels to Portland force the league-topping side into a difficult position against a strong team, with the loss of Kyle Beckerman a particularly sore point.
No Captain (or is it "No, Captain!"?)
The returning Yordany Alvarez should step in for Kyle Beckerman, which, on the face of it, is a slightly terrifying prospect, but the reality of it is a bit less daunting. Alvarez is clearly no direct, one-for-one replacement, and I don't think anybody suspects he is. But he does present some valuable attributes, especially when we consider his passing game. He surely won't be getting forward in the same way, but he still manages to get himself into advanced positions quite readily.
Surprisingly, the thing we'll miss most from Beckerman is his creative play. Do we say that a year ago? Two years ago? I don't know, but he's had a distinct shift in his approach this season, and it's one that has benefited our play.
Formational approach
Our shifts in formation have startled opponents somewhat, as they now feel uncertain as to what we'll play on any given match day. This, despite very heavily playing in that 4-4-2 — so what's got them scared? Simply, it's the flexibility they thought we didn't have. In all honesty, our three core formations we've played this season — the 4-4-2 diamond, the 4-2-1-3, the 4-5-1 — all function in largely the same way: We maintain pressure with our forwards and attacking midfielders, we stretch play with midfield runs, and we maintain possession in the middle.
It's the understanding we've built in the squad over years of play that allows us to easily switch formations, and that, in its own right, is a bit unintuitive. By being dogged in our formational approach, we've enabled ourselves to be flexible in our … formational approach. Funny how these things turn out.
Maintaining midfield pressure
As we saw against Portland in the US Open Cup, it's important that, if we're to be successful again against this side, we have to maintain a similar approach. This means being systematic in our pressure from the midfield and the front, but we must do so without leaving substantial gaps between our defenders and our midfield. This is the difficulty of the approach, but key will be restricting the possession and passing of Portland Timbers in less dangerous areas. Less key is winning the ball back quickly, because as we've seen, they hardly thrive in deeper positions.
It all takes a degree of caution, but this is the sort of thing on which the result will pivot.

It's not often a side is so privileged as to face the same opponent two weeks in row, but with an unbalanced schedule, there was an air of inevitability to this sort of meeting. Though last time around, RSL took their chances well thanks, in part, to a fine striking performance from Alvaro Saborio, the tables so often turn on the road.
Vancouver Whitecaps, sitting in fourth place in the Western Conference, have been one of the most improved sides in MLS this year, rocketing up from their last-place finish in 2011. With eleven games remaining in the season, they've picked up six more points than in the whole of the previous campaign. Clearer a stronger foe now, the Whitecaps have lost but a single match at home, and our road form hasn't set to world alight. It all shapes up to be a noteworthy occasion.
The statistical run of RSL's road fortunes is bandied about with some regularity, there hasn't been much disparity from last season, when a paltry five games were won on the road. Two more road wins would see the Claret and Cobalt best their road results from last season.
But for all the talk of form, the Caps will be without the services of first-choice goalkeeper Joe Cannon, whose performances have contributed in no small way to Vancouver's successes. His 68 saves this season — enough to put him in third place in the category — won't come into play after his sending off just two weeks ago.
Before talk of threatening a backup keeper can take off — Brad Knighton's not a slouch, though he's never won a regular spot for an MLS side — it should be considered that Real Salt Lake play less in the final third than any other side in MLS relative to total passes. Only 24 percent of RSL's passing comes in the final third, and while that seems to indicate a lack of threat to play, it can be tempered: For every 46.8 successful final third passes, the side finds a goal — an indicator that there is more threat in that vital area of possession.
Keeping the Whitecaps at bay is a difficult task: They're a side that thrives without extensive possession: When they've won, they've averaged only 43 percent possession. With speedy players like Darren Mattocks and Dane Richards — both among the fastest in the league — catching sides on the break has become a routine affair. Strangely, Vancouver has averaged more possession when they lose matches — 51 percent — which won't dictate RSL's playing style, but should inform an awareness of counterattacking threat.
It's certain to be a real test for Kwame Watson-Siriboe — it's one he fared well with last time out against this side — early performances for RSL have been impressive. Having won two-thirds of his duels (a rate that tops the team) and showing an impressive ability to keep possession with safe passing play (92.8 percent — the best rate in the league), the young center back has eased the worries about the missing Olave.
With Jamison Olave falling to a hamstring strain and Chris Schuler still out with a foot bone stress response, the Watson-Siriboe-Borchers connection looks to be one that'll continue for at least the next month, supposing the nasty injury bug floating around the squad doesn't claim either of the two. Knock on wood and all that, right?
The trip off to Canada presents RSL with an opportunity to reclaim some road form, and while things aren't as bad as they may seem at times, there is a real sense floating around that there must be improvement away from the relative comforts of the Rio Tinto. Saturday presents a very real opportunity.

New GTA V trailer:
Honestly, I'm not that excited for this game. GTA 4 sucked IMO, and I never even finished San Andreas...I feel like you've played one GTA, you've played them all. This one might have a few more bells and whistles, but eh. There are other games next year I'm more excited about, including Beyond, Revengeence, and Last of Us (assuming that one comes out in 2013).

KSL Channel 5's Nadine Wimmer interviews Kyung Jung Sheen (Jack to his friends), Prescott Herzog and Alida Cummings. These three students were Castle Heights most prolific readers during a year when books were all important in Carbon County.
During the 2010-2011 school year, students at the local elementary read for 2.3 million minutes, earning them a "Literacy Landing" with the KSL 5 chopper.
According to Castle Heights Principal Jan Cox, the whole community came together to support this initiative participating in events such as: Moms and Muffins, Dads and Donuts and Grandparents and Granola, all in the name of increased literacy.
In addition to support from the school and community, partner groups like the local Parent Teacher Association also played a big part in making reading part of the daily routine for every Castle Heights student.
"I am so proud that our students have been so committed to reading and this program as a whole," said Cox. "I love that they feel reading is fun, it has become something they love to do."

Two Spool Wire and Cable Storage Bag
Filed under: Uncategorized
It's only 10 days until Santa Claus comes screeching into town, and as we start the final countdown, I thought it might be fun to highlight a few of our more Christmassy products. I realize that I've already brought up Christmas in earlier posts (I got way ahead of myself in that respect), but there are still a few interesting items that can be very helpful during the Yuletide season.
Only yesterday I was mulling over the things that post-holiday cleanup entails, and the Two-Spool Cable Storage Bag (or Twinkle Light Keeper, as I like to think of it) came instantly to mind. Now, I feel like I've used this anecdote far too many times for different things, but it involves a classic Christmas movie, so I'm just going to go for it. Remember in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, when Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) decides to deck the house out in "25,000 imported Italian twinkle lights"? He unloads a beach ball-sized knot of Christmas lights on his young and reluctant son, Russ (Johnny Galecki), with a dismissive "You can work on that." This scene is pretty funny as it plays out onscreen, but I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that it's one you don't want to recreate in real life. That's where the nifty Two-Spool Bag comes into play.
The entire concept of the bag is so simple, but it prevents some pretty major decorating and post-holiday storage headaches. That's because when you open it up, you'll find two cable reels on stands, each of which allows you to spool up to 100 feet of mini Christmas lights. Imagine having 200 feet of holiday lights stored tangle-free inside a bag that measures only 15 x 6 x 11.25 inches! You may have had to unsnarl things this year, but decking the halls should be a whole lot merrier the next time around.

GCC petchems capacity to rise by 50% by 2020
April 23, 2013 | Natasha Alperowicz
Petrochemicals and chemicals capacity in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states is forecast to reach 191.2 million m.t./year by 2020, a 50% increase from the 127.8 million m.t./year in 2012, according to the Gulf Petrochemicals & Chemicals Association (GPCA; Dubai). The numbers were announced in GPCA's annual update of its petrochemicals and chemicals database. Driving the growth is Saudi Arabia, which is expected to add 40.6 million m.t./year of additional capacity by 2020. Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are in second and third place and...

The results are in, and despite ready acknowledgement of the small sample size and paragraphs worth of other caveats, the parents of Wikipedia can't help but note that its baby was judged to have outperformed other online encyclopedias, including Encyclopaedia Britannica, in three different languages.

Neda Agha-Soltan
Courtesy Caspian Makan/Associated Press
Neda Agha-Soltan was a 26-year-old Iranian woman who was shot to death on a Tehran street in the unrest that followed the country's disputed election in June 2009. Although Ms. Agha-Soltan, whom her relatives described as unpolitical, was killed on a quiet street and was not participating in any political rally when she was shot, she became an instant symbol of the anti-government movement when a video of her death was shared on social networking sites.
Only scraps of information are known about Ms. Agha-Soltan. Her friends and relatives were mostly afraid to speak, and the government broke up public attempts to mourn her. She studied philosophy and took underground singing lessons - women are barred from singing publicly in Iran. Her name means voice in Persian, and many are now calling her the voice of Iran.
Her fiancé, Caspian Makan, contributed to a Persian Wikipedia entry. He said she never supported any particular presidential candidate. "She wanted freedom, freedom for everybody," the entry read.
Her singing instructor, Hamid Panahi, offered a glimpse of her last moments.
He said the two of them had attempted to join a rally and decided to head home after being caught in a clash with club-wielding forces in central Tehran. The car was hot and they decided to step out for some fresh air. "We heard one gunshot, and the bullet came and hit Neda right in the chest," he said. The shot was fired from the rooftop of a private house across the street, perhaps by a sniper, he said. On a Facebook posting along with the video, an anonymous doctor said he tried to save her but failed because the bullet hit her heart. "It burned me," she said before she died.
Shortly after Ms. Agha-Soltan died, the man whose 40-second video of her death has ricocheted around the world made a somber calculation in what has become the cat-and-mouse game of evading Iran's censors. He knew that the government had been blocking Web sites like YouTube and Facebook. Trying to send the video there could have exposed him and his family.
Instead, he e-mailed the two-megabyte video to a nearby friend, who quickly forwarded it to the Voice of America, the newspaper The Guardian in London and five online friends in Europe, with a message that read, "Please let the world know." It was one of those friends, an Iranian expatriate in the Netherlands, who posted it on Facebook, weeping as he did so, he recalled.
Copies of the video, as well as a shorter one shot by another witness, spread almost instantly to YouTube and were televised within hours by CNN. Despite a prolonged effort by Iran's government to keep a media lid on the violent events unfolding on the streets, Ms. Agha-Soltan was transformed on the Web from a nameless victim into an icon of the Iranian protest movement.

PSA Membership Rates vary according to membership category and country of origin. Reduced rates are available for multiple year and youth memberships.
PSA membership begins the month the member joins and continues through that year. For example, someone joining in April has a one year membership through March of the following year.
This link will take you through the steps of joining PSA. If you do not want to join online, consider downloading a printable pdf of the membership application and mailing it in.
The PSA Membership fees are not to be treated as a Journal subscription. The membership fee entitles the payer to the full range of PSA Member benefits for the membership period. It is standard PSA policy not to refund payments, for which a membership has been processed, a membership ID provided and access to services and all benefits enabled. The standard membership term is for one year and will be maintained as an active membership for that period. In those cases where a member has erroneously made multiple payments for the same period of membership, the additional payments may be refunded or, if the member agrees, used to extend the base membership.

|We skied up the Juggernaut trail a bunch of years in a row. It's a nice trail to take the cross country skies up being not too steep. The summit block on killington is refreshingly absent of people since it is kind of hidden up and right of the top of the lift lines. The ski down is, naturally, amazing.

|Thought I might have to pass this up till my return trip to Burlington from NJ but the after some downpours in Albany and just outside Rutland I decided to check out the trail head and the showers seemed to have subsided. This was by far the quickest, easiest 4K' ascent in VT until the peak spur which gets somewhat vertical. Book time was 5 hours, I made it in 3:45 with about 5 minutes at the top in the clouds, barely able to see the TV and radio antennas in front of me. Managed to freak out an AT hiker in Cooper Shelter (the only other person I saw up there that day) when I was going to shoot a picture of the building and the door blew open to show him at a table right on the other side. Learned that my new trail runners are no match for wet rock and trashed a pair of Masters poles on the way down. At least I got all the 4000'+ done in VT this summer :-D

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The Augusta Career Center is teaming up with employers and service providers to connect Maine veterans to jobs, and curb the 20 percent veteran unemployment rate in the state.
Wednesday's "Hiring Maine's Heroes Job Fair" brought 45 employers and 15 service providers to the Augusta Armory.
Organizers from the Augusta Career Center and the Employer Support of the Guard Reserve said they are focusing on veterans because of the high unemployment rate they face.
While the state unemployment rate is 7.3 percent, Maine veterans experience a 20 percent unemployment rate.
Veterans career fairs have become more common at the local level, with the Lewiston Career Center hosting a similar event in January.
There's also been a focus at the Federal Level, with the 2011 Veterans Opportunity to Work, or VOW Act. The legislation requires all veterans not in school full-time or without a job to attend a three day workshop on resume writing, interviewing, and other job hunting skills.
The Employer Support of the Guard Reserve is planning other veteran job fairs in the coming months. Tentatively, job fairs will be held in Bangor in May and Lewiston in the fall.

Pre-pharmacy is an academic preparation for individuals who wish to study pharmacy at one of the 72 accredited schools of pharmacy in the United States.
Most pre-pharmacy students are science majors (biology or chemistry), but a pre-pharmacy student can major in almost any discipline provided the required science courses are completed in order to be competitive when applying to schools of pharmacy. Science classes are small at Shippensburg University, usually having no more than 16 students per laboratory section. Seasoned professors, not graduate students, teach lectures and labs. State-of-the-art laboratory equipment is available to students, giving them hands-on experience with current techniques.
Shippensburg students receive careful, personal advisement, which includes appropriate course selection and monitoring of their progress. Pre-pharmacy advisors attend conferences where they meet colleagues from other universities and share ideas. This ensures Ship health science students receive accurate, current, and comprehensive information.
Prerequisites for entry into pharmacy programs typically include:
Additionally students are expected to complete general education courses, including humanities, social sciences and courses emphasizing communications such as English composition and speech. Course prerequisites vary among pharmacy programs; therefore, pre-pharmacy students early in their first semester at Shippensburg are strongly encouraged to seek guidance from a pre-pharmacy advisor and to examine the book, Pharmacy Schools Admissions Requirements, which is located in the Health Sciences Office.
A minimum of 60 credits (2 years) of specific college prerequisites is required for entry into most 4-year doctorate of pharmacy programs. However, most Shippensburg pre-pharmacy students have chosen to first earn their 4-year undergraduate degree (usually as a chemistry or biology major) prior to matriculating at a pharmacy school. If a pre-pharmacy student chooses to complete only the 2-year minimum of prerequisite coursework, he or she will not be able to earn a baccalaureate degree from Shippensburg. Few pharmacy programs award an undergraduate degree midway through the 4 years of pharmaceutical study.
To be competitive when applying to pharmacy schools, students should accumulate a GPA of at least 3.3 (on a 4 point scale). It is also important the students have some pharmacy internship experience. If students are pursuing the 2+4 option, it is particularly vital to receive advisement from health science faculty at the very beginning of the first year or, if possible, before the freshman year begins because they will only have 2 semesters of work before applying to pharmacy programs (in the fall of their sophomore year).
Shippensburg pre-pharmacy students have done exceptionally well in their applications to pharmacy schools. Within the last decade, all qualified students who have applied to pharmacy programs have received acceptance. Some of the programs to which students have matriculated include:
Faculty-directed undergraduate research is highly encouraged at Shippensburg. Each year, between 6 and 12 undergraduate science students present results of their research at regional, state or national conferences.
Pre-pharmacy students are also encouraged to participate in an internship experience in a pharmacy setting in order to become acquainted with the field prior to making formal application to selected professional programs. Additionally, students are exposed to diverse health professional interests of other students and a variety of health professionals who are invited to speak at the university. This exposure makes them aware of alternative programs in the health care field.

For those who didn't read my column last week, let me make a long story short by saying that I was recently ticketed for having an overly vocal dog and have since been recounting my experience here.
Most who have had anything to do with the legal system know that easiest way to deal with the court is to plead guilty, pay your fine, do your time and move on. While Americans love to say "innocent until proven guilty" those with experience know that the saying should be more like "innocent until paper work is served". I'm passing on this little piece of McManus wisdom because I have decided to go against my own logic and ride out a not guilty plea on behalf of my dog Puff.
When I showed up for court in East Carbon last Thursday I was confident that I wouldn't be the only dog owner in the room. What I didn't expect was to be just one among the many. Following one brief human to human crime, the flood gates opened and K-9 Court was in session.
My introduction to the seriousness of my pet's transgression was made immediately clear to me when I witnessed the judge hand down a $200 fine and 12 months court probation for the day's first animal offender. The defendant was ordered by the court to commit no further animal related offenses during probation lest she face an order to show cause which carries a possible 20-day jail sentence. Yes, you read that right, 20 days in jail stemming from insufficient restraint of two dogs. Based on what I learned from the proceedings, the woman's dogs had not bitten anyone or maimed another animal during their time on the lam. They simply were not properly restrained.
Court continued with charges like failure to license a dog, barking dog, illegal frolicking dog, overtly panting dog, indecent doggy exposure. Okay, the last three I made up but I was very disturbed by what I was seeing. Why are our court officials being forced to try these cases? Is this really the chief function of EC's local justice court?
When my name was finally called, I silently thanked my neighbor for this experience and walked to the podium. After affirming that I understood my rights, I was asked for my plea. You see, I was ready with statements and witnesses and the whole nine yards until I found out that nothing was going to happen at my arraignment. I knew this having dealt with the courts before but for some reason I had chosen to forget. This is what I mean by saying that you are innocent until the paperwork rolls. If I indeed do ride this out and the city attorney does charge me, I will have two more court appearances before my case is even heard. That's three days missed work before a trial commences and let's not forget, we are talking about a charge of barking dog here, not manslaughter. The fine would be far less than three days pay and there's always the high chance that a guilty decision is headed down the pike.
I'm fairly certain a system set up to protect the public was never meant to make everyday citizens feel this powerless.
Well, unlike most, I get paid when I show for court and the pleasure of going through this process far outweighs the potential cost (at least I hope so). After I entered a plea of not-guilty, the judge asked me if I had any questions. When I inquired about guidelines for ruling, she pointed out that case details could not be discussed but that the ordinance was available. And the ordinance is great.
Did you know that East Carbon has animal control protocols in place for venomous fish and piranha? Is there something in Grassy Trail Reservoir they aren't telling us about?
The ordinance is more than 25 pages long and details everything from the definition of a wild animal to an overly broad and ambiguous nuisance provision. By East Carbon City ordinance, any animal which damages, is vicious, is smelly, is dirty, defecates on the sidewalk, barks or chases is a nuisance. I would say that encompasses every dog I know at least a little. Specifically, owners can be cited if their animal barks, whines, howls or makes other disturbing noises in an excessive, continuous or untimely fashion. That's right, an untimely fashion. When this was written I wonder if they outlined a timely hour for barking and whining.
That is my point. Dogs bark. Dogs run. Dogs like to be "at large" and this activity only becomes illegal when we choose to define it as such. I have spoken to several police officers recently who despise receiving animal nuisance calls. Most police officers did not sign up to locate, impound and relocate Fido. I would also venture that the time of our court officials might be better used.
As I finished the ordinance, the animal cruelty section stood out to me as the one place where the spirit of the law could and should be represented. Since my dog was ticketed for barking in an untimely fashion I have had other dog owners recommend that I use a shock collar or have Puff de-barked.
Where the city defines cruelty as physical abuse you would think that shocking or maiming one's pet would be more of a crime than the simple noise of the neighborhood.

New York States Good Samaritan Law protects overdose victims and bystanders who call 911 for medical assistance in the event of an overdose from drugs or alcohol, according to the Rapid Response Workgroup, Watertown.
The law protects residents from prosecution for underage possession of alcohol and for holding or sharing small amounts of drugs without compensation or benefit.
A flyer promoting the law has been approved by the district attorneys of Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence Counties, according to Anita K. Seefried-Brown, director of community prevention at the Alcohol and Substance Abuse Council of Jefferson County.
The law does not offer protection to residents in possession of eight ounces or more of narcotics or to those who sell drugs, including marijuana. However, the flyer notes, judges can consider lesser sentences for persons who seek medical attention for overdose victims.
There were 18 overdose deaths in 2011 and 16 in 2012 in Jefferson County, according to the office of the Jefferson County Medical Examiner.

not greasy, melts quicklly.
I love this product. I've tried other waxes and this is the best. It leaves your hands looking and feeling terrific. I also prefer the beads over the "chunks" that are available from other suppliers. The beads melt more quickly and it is far less messy to use just the amount you need. If you need paraffin you have got to try this product!
I used other brands of paraffin where I used to work, I hated to do paraffin treatments because of the mess. I love this stuff! It comes off easily with no flaking. Any drips that I have to clean up come off easily, and the skin feels so soft afterword. This product makes the paraffin treatment what it should be for client and therapist
