Reviews for Slow Cooker Barbecue Beef
Sort By :
"Absolutely the best!!"
"It is FANTABULAS just the way it is!!!"
"The beef came out SO tender!! My husband doesn't like spicy foods and we are not big onion fans so I cut the chili powder down to 1 tablespoon and only used half the onion. It was just enough spice and flavor. I think next time I make this I am going to add some more brown sugar...I'm a sweet bbq fan. Definitely a good recipe."
"This recipe is a real winner. We have made it several times for Labor Day BBQ and for informal get-togethers. It allows us to have a low-fuss but home cooked meal and guests always rave!"
"I lost my recipe that I got from a friend almost identical to this one, and when I saw this one I knew my search was over. All of my family loved this recipe, and I have 3 up and coming cooks to share with."

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has begun draining Walnut Creek Marsh in Ringgold County to make improvements in the marsh toward preventing summertime fish kills, similar to the significant fish kill that occurred in mid July. The marsh will drain over the next few weeks.
Draining the marsh will allow the DNR to remove an excessive abundance of American Lotus, a likely contributor to the summer fish kill. The DNR will also consider other potential improvements such as increasing the depth of the marsh through dredging or increasing the height of the existing dam.
The DNR will re-stock fish once the marsh has refilled.
Walnut Creek Marsh suffered a significant summer fish kill in mid-July due to low dissolved oxygen conditions caused by decaying vegetation. The DNR continued to monitor water conditions after the fish kill and it was determined that aquatic life could not be sustained under the current conditions.
Summer fish kills generally occur in small, shallow ponds with excessive vegetation. Sunny conditions during the daytime allow for plant photosynthesis that produces dissolved oxygen. However, at night, the dissolved oxygen produced during the day is used for respiration by fish, insects, plants and other aquatic organisms. After a period of calm, cloudy days, the dissolved oxygen produced may be depleted by decomposing vegetation and result in a fish kill.
Walnut Creek Marsh will not be available for fall fishing and duck hunting in 2014.
For more information, contact Iowa DNR Fisheries Biologist Andy Jansen at 641-464-3108 or Iowa DNR Wildlife Biologist Chad Paup at 515-238-5708.

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
Many factors contribute to headaches for both men and women, including family history and age. Women, however, often notice a relationship between headaches and hormonal changes.
The hormones estrogen (ES-truh-jen) and progesterone (pro-JES-tuh-rohn) — which play key roles in regulating the menstrual cycle and pregnancy — may affect headache-related chemicals in the brain. Steady estrogen levels may improve headaches, while estrogen levels that lower or change can make headaches worse.
Though fluctuating hormone levels can influence headache patterns, you're not completely at the mercy of your hormones. Your doctor can help you treat — or prevent — headaches.
The drop in estrogen just before your period may contribute to headaches. Many women with migraines report headaches before or during menstruation.
Your menstrual-related migraines may be treated in several ways, including:
If you have several debilitating headaches a month, your doctor may recommend preventive treatment with NSAIDs or triptans.
If your menstrual cycle is regular, it's often most effective to take preventive headache medication starting a few days before your period and continuing through up to two weeks after the start of your period.
If you have migraines throughout your menstrual cycle or you have irregular periods, your doctor may recommend that you take preventive medications every day.
Daily medications may include beta blockers, anticonvulsants, calcium channel blockers, antidepressants or magnesium. Doctors will review any other medical conditions you may have to determine which medications may be most appropriate for you.
Making lifestyle changes, such as reducing stress and exercising regularly, also may help reduce the frequency, length and severity of migraines.
Some women first experience migraines while taking birth control pills. Hormonal birth control may change existing headache patterns — sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse or sometimes not at all.
If you experience migraines while taking birth control pills, consult your doctor. It may help to:
Birth control pills may help reduce the frequency and severity of menstrual-related migraines. Using birth control pills to prevent menstrual-related migraines may be appropriate for some women who haven't been helped by other methods.

HTC refuses to offer cheaper handsets just to boost sales. Despite struggling to match the sales numbers of its competitors, the company is sticking to its strategy of producing only medium- to high-end handsets.
HTC CEO Peter Chou defended the company's strategy in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. "We don't want to destroy our brand image. We insist on using better materials to make better products that offer premium experience. Many consumers like that."
Chou's comments come at a time when many industry watchers are beginning to question HTC's strategy. Motorola and Samsung are capturing the low-end handset market in the Chinese market, but Chao insists that HTC will not manufacture "cheap, cheap phones" to boost its market share.
HTC will increase its marketing efforts and expand its distribution network into emerging markets. Chou expects that 2012 Chinese shipments will reach three times last year's total. Shipments to India and other emerging markets are steadily growing. Chou is adamant, "We think our strategy is successful."

Successfully navigating the tough job market is no exact science, and although Carbon County has not experienced the same economic difficulties as much of the country, job hunting can still be challenging.
With so many new avenues open to post and look for jobs, both applicants and employers have made adjustments to how they go about their employment practices. Far gone are the days of sending resumes and applications in by hard mail and although their replacement, -email- is much faster, the same rules of sound references and resumes still apply.
While traditionally job postings have been done on a more local level, the invention of internet based job searches has made it possible for one person to easily apply for any number of jobs any where in the world. This however has not typically effected the local job market for less skilled labor, as it is typically not posted on the internet.
Skilled labor, however is almost always posted online because qualifying people typically can be difficult to find locally. "Employers typically put the higher end jobs online," said Susan Etzel at the Department of Workforce Services.
Depending on what an individual is looking for, the internet can be helpful, but one thing many job seekers do when looking online is to search specific posting sites, for their field of interest, instead of a "blanket site," like Monster.com.
David Craig, a recently hired intern for interim CEU president Mike King, who is studying public relations and is a registered Utah lobbyist, said that he prefers to search through specific PR job sites and others that cater his career field. "Some of the (well known) websites charge," he said.
One thing that Craig stressed is that with the current job market being so competitive and the internet so easily accessible, that personal interactions can go a long way.
"My father taught me to do things on a personal level," he said, specifying the effectiveness of dropping applications off in person and meeting people directly.
With so many skilled people out of work around the country it can be an added challenge for people like Craig who are new to their career fields because competition can be steep. Craig, however, finds an unexpected advantage when competing against others with 30 plus years experience.
"Our generation can't necessarily compete solely on experience, but we can offer fresh perspectives and ideas," said Craig.
As far as competition is concerned, it is true that the internet can create a very competitive environment for job seekers, but it is also true that it can leave employers almost overwhelmed. "Part of the problem with Monster.com is your just one click away from applying," said Jay Stephens the Director of human resources at CEU. "Sometimes you get quantity not quality,"
Stephens added that he has had success with Monster, when looking for jobs with steeper requirements, "it just depends," he said.
Many job networking sites like Monster.com have been around for more than 10 years however it is important for job seekers to not loose sight of "personal touch," when apply for work because while it's easy to send out hundreds of standard letters and resumes, it's also easy for employers to see through it.
"One of the biggest things for me is I want someone who has done their homework, and knows a lot about us," said Stephens. "I don't want some generic cover letter," he concluded.

Mosley is joined on the 21-man team by Norfolk State 6-10 senior Kyle O'Quinn, Murray State guard Jewaun Long and Creighton junior Gregory Echenique, among others.
The 6-7 senior finished with 460 career blocks, ranking ahead of Alonzo Mourning and just behind Tim Duncan in fifth place on the NCAA career blocks list. Mosley is the shortest player in the NCAA's career Top 20.
He led the nation with a 4.9 blocks average as a junior. This year his 4.1 rate was second nationally behind dynamic Kentucky freshman Anthony Davis (4.7). Mosley helped the Demons lead the nation in team blocked shots (7.0) as a junior and rank sixth (6.5) this season, and he also topped the team in steals (1.4 pg) as NSU ranked 11th nationally with 8.8 per game.
"William's defensive ability altered the way teams played us over the last two-plus seasons," said Demons' coach Mike McConathy. "He changed the flow of their offenses, not only because he could block any shot anywhere on the floor, but because he could guard on the perimeter and in our presses. The fact that he led us in steals is amazing, unless you saw him play. He was something to watch and a pleasure to coach."
The top rebounder in the Southland Conference, Mosley's 9.6 average ranked 32nd in the country this season. He became only the third player in school history to pass 1,000 career rebounds and finished third all-time at 1,118, including a career-high of 21 as a sophomore against Southeastern Louisiana.
He ranks second in Southland history in career and single-season (156 in 2010-11) blocked shots. He twice blocked 11 in a game.
He had one career triple-double (10 points, 12 rebounds, 11 blocks against LSU-Shreveport as a junior) and 17 career double-doubles, 11 as a senior.
Mosley was a first-team selection on the 2012 All-Southland team, the All-Louisiana Team, and on the National Association of Basketball Coaches' All-District 23 team, comprised of players from the Southland and Southwestern Athletic conferences. He was also one of 20 players chosen for collegesportsmadness.com's All-Mid Major Team, and was featured in February's SLAM magazine. One of his blocked shots in a game against No. 3 Missouri made the ESPN SportsCenter Top 10 Plays of the Day for Dec. 2.
He was one of eight players chosen from around all levels of college basketball for the Denny's Slam Dunk Challenge during Final Four weekend in New Orleans. Although he did not advance to the final round of four, he received a near-perfect score of 37 on his only dunk in the competition.
Mosley was second on the Demons' team in 2011-12 with a career-best 11.7 scoring average. The Shreveport-Huntington product shot 61 percent from the field as a senior. He finished with a career-best 22 points in a Southland Conference Tournament loss to eventual NCAA Tournament participant Lamar. He had career single-game highs of five steals as a freshman at Grambling, and 4 assists, twice.
He received his undergraduate general studies degree from NSU in December.

Passenger rail supporters in Wichita are planning what they describe as a "major announcement" this week.
The Wichita Eagle (http://bit.ly/16bXgV8 ) reports the announcement will be made during a news conference Friday afternoon at Wichita's Union Station. City officials are characterizing the news conference as an "update on significant developments regarding passenger rail advocacy in this area."
Wichita Vice Mayor Pete Meitzner will lead the news conference, along with business representatives who serve on his local steering committee.
Rail backers have been trying to persuade Amtrak to bring passenger train service to the city. One proposal would expand the route of the Heartland Flyer, which travels between Oklahoma City and Fort Worth.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is giving one year for the Azure Mountain Power Company to repair the St. Regis dam, despite lack of funds.
Owner Everett Smith is turning toward the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) for help with funding for the dam, located on the St. Regis Falls river in Waverly.
The dam provides electricity based on the flow of the river.
The FERC determined the length of time for the company to repair or reconstruct the dam after a compromise.
Originally they (FERC) said the flashboards had to be lowered ... But we protested against that, said owner of the company Everett Smith. Thats how people upstream get their water and it would damage the wet land habitats.
Flashboards are used to raise the water surface of a dam. Had they lowered the flashboards on the dam, the water depth would have decreased four to five feet, according to Smith.
Now instead of doing that, we have to repair or replace the dam this year, he said.
The stability of the dam is fair for the season, but something has to be done, according to Smith.
Smith said he has been trying for the past three years to receive funding.
I just never made an official proposal, he said.
Foley said the issue for funding did not become urgent until a few months ago.
There are three options are for the dam, according to a letter Waverly Supervisor Michael Bailey sent to State Senator Betty Little, R-45th District, Oct. 31, 2012.
The first option would cost in the neighborhood of $1 million and would create a concrete dam instead of a timber dam. Option two would cost $500,000, and would replace the timber crib dam. Option three would cost $100,000, and would replace the cribs of the existing dam.
We need to replace whats not going to last ... And right now everything in that town is going to last for 100 more years but that dam, Foley said.
Repairs or replacement of the dam would be easier to achieve if Azure Mountain Power was making more for a profit, according to Foley.
The rate we get paid is the lowest it has been in the past 30 years ... We get paid three cents a kilowatt, he said.
Smith, co-owner Matt Foley and Bailey spoke with Sustainable Communities Practice Leader for Ecology and Environmental, Inc. Rebecca Flora at a presentation in the Wild Center in Tupper Lake on Wednesday.
The presentation was provided by the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) and business partner Ecology and Environmental, Inc. on the importance of sustainability.
Before funding options would be considered for the dam, the project must first be submitted on the ANCAs website by filling out an eight-page form.
Smith said he will send in the form this week.
And even then we do not decide who has top priority, Flora said.
The state determines which projects are funded first, according to Flora.
The Consolidated Funding Application, or the CFA, is what the state uses to determine who gets funding and when, she said. We create this list so that we can have a general idea of what projects need to be done in the North Country area.
To receive funding from the state, the projects have to follow the criteria to meet the sustainability goal.
I think it would [receive funding]. Its hydro and it provides local energy, Flora said.
According to Bailey, the dam is good for tourism, such as fishing, has a series of campsites along the pond and creates a wetland habitat.
The river is not only an area for over 200 homes to use as a recreational service, but it also provides some residents with water supply, according to Baileys letter.
Azure Mountain Power is an important tax-paying element of the community, Bailey added.
However, it is too small to participate in the larger commercial market because it does not produce over two megawatts, according to Smith. Therefore, it must sell to National Grid.
We sell it to them at three cents per kilowatt and they turn around and sell it to St. Regis Falls for 12 cents per kilowatt/hour, he said.
Smith said the power the company produces sometimes goes as far as Santa Clara and Dickinson, but they do not produce all the power those towns need.
You cant really tell where the electrons go in the grid ... They go where needed, Smith said.
According to Foley, the rates for customers would stay the same whether National Grid provided the electricity on its own or through Azure Mountain Power Company.
Smith said the decreased rate is due to the low cost of natural gas.
If we were making 10 cents per kilowatt, wed be able to make those repairs, Smith said.
He hopes that the dam will receive a grant.
It may be a step by step process ... that would stretch out over a time line, Smith said. We have to see what becomes available, we have to convince them that this is a good thing.
If available funding is not in the cards, Bailey said the town will consider taking over the project.

The MiPow PlayBulb is one of the more unique accessories we've carried at PureMobile. This lightbulb with a built-in bluetooth speaker is all kinds of cool. I finally got one to try out and I'm happy to report that every concern I had before I even got my hands on it was alleviated after I finally tested it out.
The PlayBulb is controlled using bluetooth and an app that is available on both the Google Play Store and the Apple App store. Once you download the app your device becomes a remote, controlling the music and even the light. In addition to turning the light on or off, the PlayBulb app turns your device into a dimmer switch, letting you set the tone of the party.
The light itself is well put together and surprisingly large. I was sure when it was announced that corners would be cut, but I am happy to report that the MiPow PlayBulb is a winner and a very great gift idea for yourself or a friend!
Check out the MiPow PlayBulb on PureMobile now!
Incipio's LGND case for the Apple iPad Mini is a very versatile and unique case. I recently got this case for my iPad Mini and after a few weeks it became very clear to me just how awesome this case is. With a bunch of different viewing angles, a protective shell on the back and a smooth finish inside, this case nails it as one of the better Apple iPad Mini cases.
First things first, this case allows you to do so many things with your iPad Mini. Open and close the cover to protect the screen. Prop it up with multiple viewings angles to get a good look at videos and apps. This case does it all and does it with a unique design and a low price.
My only complaint with this Incipio case is that the cover can show stains. It seems to absorb moisture easily, but maybe I'm just sloppy. Regardless, don't let that stop you, this case is the real deal for your Apple iPad Mini or iPad Mini with Retina Display.
Check out the Incipio LGND on PureMobile now!
There are some really, really, really terrible places to get caught using your phone.
PureMobile has been there. And we want to tell you about some of the worst places we have been caught or caught others on the phone and what it has cost us as humans.
On The Metro
The subway/Metro/public transit is a dead zone for phones. Either they don't work, they are terribly annoying, or they are a dangerous distraction.
Yep, that's all of us being collectively late for work, school, or life in general because we just wanted to crush a little more candy or finally beat 2048 for the first time. It's hard, but it gets better, don't worry.
What it cost us: Dignity? Time?
In The Bathroom
Of course. Doing your business on the phone while, doing your business. I think it's disgusting, I'm sure everyone does, but we all do it. Some people fake going to the bathroom just to do it. But it doesn't always work out..
Looks like it's rice for dinner tonight unless you have better ideas for bringing this guy back to life.
What it cost us: Ultimately, a phone
In The Car
What it cost us: Our life?
In The Theatre
Why would you ever do this? Why? Why are you there?
Ugh. There isn't one thing I hate more than anticipating a film and having it ruined by someone who thinks their conversation trumps the collective attention of everyone sitting behind them. Ugh.
What it cost us: $15
On An Airplane
You did this. You and your texting.
Just kidding. That is footage of a crash test. But still, nothing makes me more uneasy than the realization I have forgotten to switch off my phone during take off and I have doomed everyone onboard the aircraft to a watery grave.
What it cost us: A time travelling voyage through parallel dimensions with an unsatisifying conclusion.
The World Cup is one of the most exciting sporting events on the globe and PureMobile is ready to kick it into overdrive with special, limited-time accessories to help you celebrate the games and, hopefully, victories in style. We have received our first wave of accessories, and we expect many more, but in the meantime, take a look at these very cool World Cup themed cases for the Apple iPhone 5 and 5S from Tru Protection! These cases feature some of the most popular national clubs and are also very protective. They slip on and off your phone with ease and are a great gift idea for those that can't get enough of the World Cup action!
If you think this all we have to offer for this massive, international event, think again. Don't miss out on upcoming World Cup cases from Tru Protection and Melkco for the Apple iPhone 5 and 5S, Apple iPad Air, and Samsung Galaxy S5! These accessories should be rolling in over the next week and you can bet you'll be hearing about them right here on the PureMobile Insider Blog. We'll keep you updated as the big games approach and the World Cup finally gets underway in 2014!
The TYPO is an accessory on the run. Challenged in court, the TYPO has been added to the bad boy list and now it's steadily becoming an accessory in demand due to its obvious perks and its new-found rarity. While most retailers in the USA cannot carry this groundbreaking accessory, PureMobile has the TYPO in stock and ready to move. If you aren't convinced, read on. Our review will show you just why any Apple iPhone 5/5S user could use this exciting accessory.
The TYPO is a fascinating accessory. Combining the best of both the QWERTY and touchscreen world, the TYPO is a physical keyboard case that allows you to essentially attach a real keyboard to your Apple iPhone 5 or 5S. A two piece accessory, the Typo is a two piece case that is surprisingly protective. Don't go doing any drop tests with the case on, but pocket scratches and small knocks won't show on your phone.
Now, onto the Tour De Force, the keyboard. The keyboard is eerily familiar to the classic QWERTY keyboard found on BlackBerry devices. A nice fret splits the rows making typing a breeze, in fact I noticed a dramatic decrease in mistakes in going from the traditional touchscreen to the TYPO keyboard. My big fingers were far more accurate and after a bit muscle memory kicked in and my college days toting a BlackBerry came in handy. They really do feel remarkably similar.
All in all, the TYPO's unique two-piece protective design and expertly implemented and unique built-in keyboard design are a big winner. This device doesn't just make typing easier, it saves time and mistakes and gets you on and off your phone quicker. While legality may make this accessory harder to track down, if you are interested in this device you can check it out right now at PureMobile.

|Vitaris Named SoCon Special Teams Player of the Week
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Monday, 20 September 2010 14:42
Appalachian State University place kicker Jason Vitaris, who matched a career high with three field goals in the Mountaineers' 44-16 victory over North Carolina Central, has been named the Southern Conference's Special Teams Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday.
Vitaris converted all three of his field-goal attempts from 34, 24 and 29 yards in Saturday's win, marking the third time in 14 games that he has booted three field goals in a game. Prior to Vitaris first accomplishing the feat at The Citadel on Oct. 3 of last season, no Mountaineer had made three field goals in a game since Erik Rockhold versus Morehead State in 2003.

Imagine a country road in the summer. Wind blows across fields of barley, heat rises from the pavement and occasionally a car goes past, breaking the tranquility.
Contrast that with the image of the hot, bustling city, where sun glints off skyscrapers, taxicabs blare their horns and hidden danger lurks around every corner.
Which is safer?
According to a study conducted by the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and the Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia, its the city.
In a article titled Safety in Numbers: Are Major Cities the Safest Places in the United States? soon to appear in the Annals of Emergency Medicine, researchers found that when all types of fatal injuries are considered together, risk of injury-related death was about 20 percent lower in urban areas than in most rural areas of the nation.
After analyzing more than 1.2 million injury-related deaths in the United States, the study found that the top three causes of death across the entire population, as well as most age subgroups, were motor vehicle accidents, firearms and poisoning.
Its an interesting study. Well see how we can mesh that into our thinking here, said Charles F. Brenon III, director of Jefferson County emergency services.
Jefferson County traditionally has been considered predominantly rural, though it recently was identified by the U.S. Census Bureau as the fastest-growing county, by percentage, in the state.
Given those seemingly contradictory terms, the county defies easy categorization, Mr. Brenon said.
According to maps provided by the study, Jefferson County falls right in the middle of the urban-rural continuum, right in the middle of the population density continuum, and on the low side of the death rates continuum.
Succinctly put, the county is like the third option in the Goldilocks story just right with fewer deaths from injury than most rural areas of the United States.
But the county does fit the rural profile advanced by the study in one major respect: motor vehicle accidents.
Motor vehicle accidents are the leading call for trauma here in the county, Mr. Brenon said.
In 2012, agencies within the county responded to 3,305 calls involving motor vehicle injury accidents.
The second highest number of calls involved chest pain, cardiac/respiratory arrest and breathing problems. Combined, there were 3,040 calls for those types of emergencies.
The third highest number of calls, 2,026, were received about individuals injuring themselves after falling in their homes.
After that came calls related to overdoses, poisoning, psychiatric incidences, abnormal behavior and suicide attempts a total of 980 calls.
The county dispatch log does not include a category for injuries related to firearms, Mr. Brenon said.
The dispatch numbers are somewhat inflated because they account for all agencies that respond to calls.
For instance, if a sheriffs deputy, an ambulance service and a fire department all go to the same scene, three separate calls would be logged.
But the numbers are indicative of the call types that are consuming the most resources, according to Mr. Brenon.
The fact that falls have begun to account for such a large number of emergency dispatches has not escaped the notice of public health officials.
Falls may be preventable through public health programs, Mr. Brenon said. Were just starting to use this data as a prevention tool, so I think this will be good for the EMS agencies, the county and the public.
Mr. Brenon said the county may need to start looking at ways to curb the number of motor vehicle accidents, starting with reinforcing the notion that using cellphones while driving is dangerous.
You cannot believe the number of people texting and talking on cellphones. They just dont understand the risks they are taking. Its discouraging when you see the statistics and all the public service announcements and still see people doing it, Mr. Brenon said.
The study also looked at access to Level I and II trauma centers in each county.
Often, being able to transport an injured person to a trauma center can mean the difference between life and death.
But after adding the proximity to trauma centers to the data as a variable, researchers found that access to trauma centers had a minimal effect on the association between injury-related mortality rate and the urban-rural nature of the county.
Researchers discovered that 61.7 percent of counties had no Level I or II trauma centers.
According to the state Trauma Program, a Level I, or regional, trauma center has specialists in varied surgical and non-surgical fields available 24 hours a day. A Level I trauma center is capable of treating 1,000 severely injured patients a year and will not treat fewer than 400 patients a year.
A Level II, or area trauma center has emergency medicine specialists and general surgeons available 24 hours a day. Other medical specialists are on call. A Level II trauma center will treat at least 250 patients a year.
The closest trauma center available to Jefferson County residents is Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, a Level I facility about 70 miles from Watertown.
The closest trauma center geographically is in Kingston, Ontario, about 30 miles by air from Watertown, Mr. Brenon said.
However, It would take literally an act of Congress to gain access to that facility, he said.
Before it closed, Mercy Hospital in Watertown was a Level II trauma center, Mr. Brenon said.
But putting a trauma center in Watertown is a tricky proposition because there is not enough demand for those services in the county, according to Mr. Brenon.
Surgery, especially trauma surgery, is a specialized niche. Those skills would erode here for lack of use, he said.
In lieu of a trauma center, in 2008 the county began designating landing zones along the Interstate 81 corridor to facilitate transportation to Syracuse.
The Safety in Numbers article concludes with a recommendation to identify local injury prevention priorities, reexamine emergency medicine certification and training requirements and consider prioritizing trauma center placement according to need.

'Technology can't provide the nuances that a human can'
SAND MOUNTAIN, Ore. - Mount Jefferson, Three-Fingered Jack and the Three Sisters loom on the horizon from Blake Driver's porch.
But this isn't a vacation cabin.
For the ninth season, Driver's summer home is the wildfire lookout tower atop Sand Mountain in the Willamette National Forest.
His job: comb the landscape with his eyes, searching for signs of forest fire. In nine years, he's spotted more than 100 fires.
"I'm responsible for a full horizon check with binoculars every 10 minutes," Driver said.
Technology has replaced people, with cameras and aerial surveillance filling the gaps. Driver thinks there's room for both people and machines.
"Technology can't provide the nuances that a human can when observing a fire," he said.
And some technology - like the original Osborne Fire Finder at Sand Mountain, built in Portland in the 1930s - still work fine today.
Driver feels he has job security for now unless budget cuts hit the lookout program again.
"Every year there's the threat that it will," Driver said. "There used to be 65 lookouts on this forest. Now there's 5."

|Postsecondary Governance and Structures
Postsecondary governance refers to any policies or structures that hold public colleges and universities accountable to state goals and strategies.
In most cases, state legislatures have constitutional authority to govern public postsecondary institutions. However, in states like California and Minnesota, the flagship university systems enjoy constitutional autonomy, so that legislatures cannot mandate institutions adopt certain academic policies. These legislatures retain some power over these systems with the finance levers they possess.
State legislatures usually delegate authority to a state-level agency. Most states have one or more governing, coordinating, or advisory board. As their names indicate, governing boards have the most authority. Coordinating boards can have policy authority, but more often serve to advance state access and completion goals. Advisory boards fill an important role in data collection, financial reporting, and negotiated rulemaking. However, advisory boards usually lack the authority to set academic or fiscal policy.
Some states have responded to budget cuts by consolidating or eliminating boards. Indiana's Commission on Higher Education and the Tennessee Higher Education Commission authorize proprietary institutions and administer student financial aid programsfunctions once held by other agencies since eliminated.
At the institutional level, governance often relates to faculty senates, shared decision-making, and the professionalization of departmental administration. State policymakers have often avoided legislating how institutions govern themselves internally.

OGDENSBURG Ogdensburgs firefighters and the city are in negotiations to frame a new labor contract to replace the two-year pact that expired Dec. 31.
Representatives of the city and the 28 firefighters belonging to International Association of Firefighters Local 1799 last met Sept. 5 and are scheduled to sit down again Friday.
Union President Terry L. Shaver declined last week to address speculation that an impasse was imminent.
Were continuing to negotiate, he said. After Sept. 20, well see where were at.
Mr. Shaver said that wages and health care costs were at issue in the ongoing negotiations.
City Manager John M. Pinkerton declined to comment Friday.
The expired contract, which is still in effect, called for a 3.25 percent cumulative pay hike and increased contributions for health care. Its terms include:
n A 1.5 percent pay increase in 2011 and 1.75 percent in 2012.
n Employee health insurance contributions, made biweekly, increased from $15 for all to $20 for a single person, $25 for a couple and $30 for a family with a 2.4 percent rise in subsequent years.
n Firefighters would perform code inspections for commercial and public assembly buildings starting last year. At least eight of them had to sign up for certification, joining 13 other firefighters.
n The firefighters joined the citys mandatory mail order prescription drug plan in 2012.
Local 1799 represents 21 firefighters, four assistant chiefs and four captains.

Beer Folks Community ChampionsShare Tweet
Ah, back at it after an Easter weekend break with family and friends. Easter sometimes is that true bridge to spring; not quite this year in Toronto, given our below zero temperatures continuing. Enough of that…
Easter is also a time of year when one (this one anyway) reflects on all the great things that we have as we celebrate with family and friends around us. After 29 years in the beer business I've come to realize that this industry of ours is one of deep community roots and involvement.
When I look back at my early years as a summer representative in Northern Ontario my whole focus was on community. From visiting tourist resorts along wooded gravel roads, to slo pitch and fast ball tournaments with men and women across the northwest of Ontario, to the Jeux Canada Games in Thunder Bay in 1981 and again in Sherbrooke in 2103, to door prizes for local charitable events…it was all about supporting our community.
Beer in Canada is part of our social fabric (it likely is where you are too but I can really only speak with authority on Canada). Molson Coors has continued to play our part in supporting events, festivals, entertainment and sports related events big and small from coast to coast to coast.
The range of community action is broad and deep, large and small. From proud official beer supplier of the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Vancouver, to a Red Leaf project park in Calgary, to the Mayor's Ball for the Arts in Edmonton or support of CFL clubs across the country including the Saskatchewan Rough Riders – Calgary Stampeders – Edmonton Eskimos, or a responsible choice initiative like free New Years buses in Winnipeg, to our partnered NHL clubs Edmonton Oilers – Toronto Maple Leafs – Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens and the NHL overall in North America, to the families of our fallen military and the True Patriot Love committee, to community festivals speckled across Quebec or the Pointe-A-Caillieer museum project in Old Montreal, the Maison de Jeunes de Dieppe, the amateur hockey movement in Prince Edward Island, the Halifax Oval or scholarships at Memorial University in St. John's, to slo-pitch and local sports or perhaps a snapshot of your favourite moment in the great provincial territories that crown this country in Molson Canadian's "make your mark" contest.
We are also proud to support our employees and the difference that they continue to make in their communities. We match their donations through our Molson Coors Donations Fund and will "double match" when they play an executive role for charity or not for profit organization. We also afford our employees with the opportunity to share their passion with fellow employees by posting their efforts in our internal social Cheers network on yammer. We have a long roster of employees committed to various charitable causes.
So, all this said, Molson Coors folks are part of an industry that continues to play a big part in our community. It is core to our business. When people come together to celebrate or make a difference in their community they can also toast their efforts with a nice cold Molson Coors. Proudly, it all dates back to our founder John Molson who was quoted while speaking to employees saying, "we are all members of a larger community, which depends on everyone playing a part."
So cheers to beer folks across this great land that continue to play their part in our community. It's a big part of who we are and a big part of what we love doing in the beer business. Cheers ! @MolsonFerg

The Samsung Galaxy s3 was intended to be currently on display at the Mobile World event over in Barcelona, Spain. However Samsung later opted to decline the showing at the Mobile World Congress. In a strategic move... Samsung executives have chosen wait and give the whole world one big launch date, which is yet to be announced... although reports have it set around June of this year. While we are still not sure whether this device will be launched as an unlocked cell phone or the related accessories to help protect, personalize and enhance its mobility... we do know that the Galaxy S 3 is slated for launch in over 50 major countries.
Regardless of this, it hasn't stopped reporters getting their hands on all the specifications and features that the Samsung Galaxy s3 will have. The details have fans frothing at the mouth and word of Apple iPhone 4S and Window based Nokia Lumia phone lovers jumping ship is happening often, people are so impressed by the reports.
While one can argue that its only speculation, we need to consider that sources these days are never far off the money, if they are off at all.
Samsung Galaxy S3 specs are now the topic of discussion for the tech communities across the world. The perception that the forthcoming smart phone from Samsung will set the bar very high for its competitors to follow in the days to come seems to be true.
The following video is an excellent review of the Samsung Galaxy S 3 that whets the appetite for the highly-anticipated addition to the Android family
The new Samsung baby is going to be 4.8 inch 1024p HD Super AMOLED Plus display with a SXGA resolution of 1280 x 1024, a lot bigger than the Samsung Galaxy S2, but a tad smaller than Galaxy Note, the 5 inch smart phone from Samsun's own stable. Some sources claim that it will be a 3D display as well. In any event, we can see an advanced display from Samsung, the world leader in mobile display technology. Samsung should install a display that can really beat down the high definition Retina Display of iPhone 4S and the possible iPhone 5.
Driving this splendid device is a powerful 1.5 GHz quad-core Samsung Exynos processor zipping the process right along. There will be 2GB RAM. You read it right. Reports indicate that Samsung is to make its next gen Galaxy S as powerful as a laptop.
The hardware is encased in an ever-chic ceramic shell. For those that don't care for the ceramic case, there is an ever growing array of protective cases and skins to personalize the device to your heart's content. No matter your style, you will want to protect the 4.8 inch, "full HD" 1080p display to avoid damage and unsightly scratches with top brand bags, cases and sleeves.
As far as camera in the new Galaxy S3 is concerned, all indication point towards the fact that it will be substantially better than Galaxy S2 and Apple's top selling iPhone 4S. Different sources report that Samsung will mount a 12-megapixel rear camera on Galaxy S3. The current version of Galaxy S2 has an 8-megapixel rear camera. Many recent or upcoming phones like iPhone 4S, Nokia Lumia 800, Motorola Droid RAZR and HTC Rezound are also up with 8-megapixel camera. So Samsung may make its Galaxy S3 a far powerful machine for image and video capturing.
The icing and the cherry on the cake are the 4G LTE capability and Android 4.0 OS bringing you the final touches of a smartphone that is beautifully designed and made.

The new year brought tragedy almost immediately to Methodists in the Carbon County area when an auto-semi-truck accident in the Salt Lake Valley took the life of Rev. Harold H. Teague, the pastor of the Price United Methodist church, as he returned from a meeting on the morning of Jan. 12. Teague, who had been the spiritual leader of the church for less than two years, was killed when a semi crossed over the median going northbound hitting the reverend's car head-on near 13200 South on I-15. He was transported to Cottonwood Hospital where he died that afternoon.
The end of January brought a world record to the area as miners at the Kaiser Steel mine in Sunnyside set the mark for the most tons produced out of a long wall miner with 20,384 tons coming out of the mine on Jan. 25. That was the second time the mine had broken a world record, having produced 20,298 tons in an eight hour shift in 1975. At the time the average for a long wall mining operations was about 6,000 tons in 24 hours.
A fire at the American Legion Post in Price destroyed the club and caused damage to a restaurant downstairs and to an adjoining storage building used by Bill's Home Furnishings. The fire was believed to have started when a short occurred as ice came off the back of the building and pulled some wires down, causing a fire. The estimated damages were set at over $100,000 for the club and between $5,000 and $10,000 to the contents of the storage area.
It was the good old days of 1982 when gas in March dropped to $1.17 a gallon. The Sun Advocate reported that the prices over February and March were the lowest in some time and interviewed a number of people in the county who were very happy about it.
It was in 1982 that plans to build the now familiar Price City "domes" came to light. The paper reported that the designer said that the dome structure would provide for unique and very usable space inside the structures.
Once again the Sun Advocate made a big change in how its paper was produced and presented to customers in 1982. At the time the twice a week paper was being produced on Wednesday and Friday and with the June 11 issue the paper began printing the Friday edition as a new publication called the "Weekender." It was presented in a tabloid form and had less hard news and more features about the area and people.
In early July the Carbon County Sheriff's office began investigating open gambling during the annual Coal Country Horse Races. At the race held in late June two long lines formed during the races; one for concessions and the other selling racing tickets. It was reported that the tickets were $2 and that many of the bettors were under 10 years of age. In mid-July four citations were issued for class B misdemeanors at the show.
The times in 1982 were different in terms of population shifts in the area too.
Rather that the no-growth or slow growth that has been experienced by the area in the last two decades, that era showed rapid growth. One of the signs of that period was that in the fall Carbon School District announced that enrollment was up over seven percent from the year before. The district added 352 more students for a total of 5,342 attending classes daily.
That year there was also a battle going on that today would seem unlikely. The old Carbon County Hospital still stood in north Price and some people were proposing that the hospital reopen to give Castleview competition. A public hearing was held in October to see if such a move would be prudent. It appeared at the time that the hospital reopening might be backed by St. Marks Hospital, who had already reportedly paid a $2,000 retainer fee to have the old building appraised.
Meanwhile, Castleview sent an application to the state asking that they be able to add 20 to 50 more beds to the facility. The Utah Health Systems Agency then put the public hearing on hold, because part of the reason for looking at reopening the old hospital was that it appeared Castleview was not able to handle the load it had been taking on in the area.
The state wanted to reschedule the meeting for December so they could review both applications (the local entity being titled the Hospital Reactivation Corporation). However the local group decided to go ahead with the meeting anyway. The meeting was held on Oct. 21 and more than 200 people showed up and most voiced the opinion they wanted to see the old hospital put back into service. People were alarmed by the increasing costs of doing business at Castleview and many saw the competition of another hospital a good thing that may help with that and the kinds of services available in the local area.
The disappearance of a former Catholic priest turned car salesman perplexed local authorities in December. Michael Donovan, a native of Northern Ireland, was reported missing around Dec. 10. Around Thanksgiving time he had taken a demonstrator car from Kraync Motors and left behind a large bounced check made out to a Helper woman. Police at the time suspected foul play because he had a tendency to pick up hitch hikers.
However, a week after the story was reported in the Sun Advocate, he showed up in town and was accompanied to the police station by Rev. Robert Servatius of Notre Dame de Lourdes Catholic Church. He told police that he went away to Salt Lake during the Thanksgiving holiday and ended up at a retreat in north Salt Lake.
Time passed more quickly than he realized and soon he found out that the authorities were looking for him for car theft. When he came back to Price he met with Karl Kraync, who decided not to press charges. Price Police Chief William Cossaboom told the Sun Advocate that when he realized a week had passed since he left that he "was too embarrassed about being gone so long to return." Cossaboom also said that Donovan "did not realize how bad things were and that there were so many people concerned about his well being." The bad check charges were also dropped.
Notable deaths during 1982 included long time Carbon High coach Carl "Stubby" Petersen and Sally Mauro, who taught and was a principal in Carbon School District for 44 years. The elementary school in Helper is named after her.

With the Memorial Day holiday wrapping up and many long summer weekends ahead, camping will be on the agenda for many Carbon residents in the coming months.
While camping can provide memories that last a lifetime and a bonding experience for family and friends, it can also be dangerous.
Several state and national organizations have outlined helpful tips to insure a safe and fun experience for all.
The American Red Cross starts their safety regulations by dispelling a common misconception.
Many people grew up with the myth that a snake bite could be treated by cutting into the wound and sucking out the poison. The treatment is neither accurate nor safe.
"Do not cut the wound, do not attempt to suck out the venom, do not apply ice, do not apply a tourniquet and do not use electric shock," states the Red Cross website. "Wash the wound. Keep the bitten part still and lower than the heart. Call 911 or a local emergency number immediately. If professional medical care is not accessible within 30 minutes, consider suctioning the wound using a snake bite kit."
The www.redcross.org site states that people at risk of incurring a snake bite should carry a snake bite kit, available at camping and wilderness equipment stores and know how to use the contents.
The site also outlines general camping guidelines and advises residents to:
Plan trips in advance to insure arrival at the site with enough light to check out the area and set up camp.
Check the site thoroughly for dangerous items such as glass, sharp objects or anything above the site that might fall on the camp.
Check desert terrains for possible danger due to flash flooding.
Try to find a level site with room to spread out.
Check for environmental hazards like poison ivy, bees, fire ants and other dangers.
Fire is a major concern at any camp site. Where fire is permitted, make sure to use an area where the fire cannot spread laterally or vertically.
Campers should keep water nearby to extinguish the fire quickly and assign someone to watch the fire at all times.
When putting out a fire, people should use water and soil to thoroughly douse the area until it is cool to the touch with no burning embers.
Dispose of all trash properly as a consideration for the forest and other campers but also as a safety technique aimed at not attracting unwanted animals into the site.
Return the camp site to its original condition.
Recreational vehicle operators are cautioned to watch for proper roads and sites.
Check RVs before departure for damage, repair and maintenance problems.
Information available at www.lovetheoutdoors.com indicates all campers should, "be prepared to administer basic first aid and CPR when in the wilderness."
The site lists suggested first aid supplies, but cautions people to personalize kits to meet the needs of the activities and situations.
Recommended items include personal medications, roll bandages, adhesive tape, antiseptic wipes, sterile gauze pads, cotton swabs, tweezers, safety pins, scissors, triangle bandages, misc. bandages, antibiotic cream, aspirin, hydrogen peroxide, ace bandages, sunburn lotion and burn ointment.
Campers should never approach wild animals and be alert to the surroundings.
Wild animals may look harmless, but are generally unpredictable and can be territorial.
Most injuries occur when people try to feed wild animals.
Additionally, campers should look out for spiders and small, but dangerous critters. People should closely check walking trails and where group sittings are planned for potential dangers.
"Many people have severe allergic reactions to bites and certain plants. some resulting in the need for medical attention," concludes the site. "Again, be aware of your surroundings."

After talking about the Base Realignment and Closure process with the Armys secretary and chief of staff Thursday, Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, said he still is not sold on the militarys plan for closures.
Talking with the Times by phone Friday afternoon, he said he wants more specifics in order to avoid a fight more dependant on political lobbying than the services needs.
They need to lay out what the plan is in advance, Mr. Owens said. That means naming names, and saying we intend to decrease the size of facility A-B-C-D, and facilities E-F-G stay in place or grow.
The speakers at the House Appropriations Defense Subcommittee hearing Thursday were Army Secretary and north country native John M. McHugh and Army Chief of Staff Gen. Raymond Odierno.
When Mr. Owens questioned him about whether Army realignments of soldiers indicate which locations the service thinks could be cut, Mr. McHugh turned the conversation to the 1995 closure of Plattsburgh Air Force Base.
Well, having gone through a BRAC that close to your hometown, Plattsburgh, you can never tell, because Plattsburgh Air Force Base was closed in spite of the fact that the Air Force very much wanted to keep it, he said. So its not our intent to create a foregone conclusion.
In recent years, Congress has rejected multiple Army requests for base closures. The last BRAC round took place in 2005, with other rounds in 1995, 1993, 1991 and 1989.
Mr. McHugh said the Army currently spends about $500 million per year in what he calls an empty facilities tax.
That may increase in the future, consistent with reductions in the Armys size. The Army currently is in the process of reducing its force from 520,000 soldiers to 490,000. The newly proposed 2015 budget plans on reducing that figure to between 440,000 and 450,000 soldiers, and that number could further fall to 420,000 in 2016 if sequestration returns at full levels.
By definition, as fewer troops are in those buildings, more and more space will become excess, Mr. McHugh said. We want to minimize that.
A new BRAC round, he said, would provide the most savings to the Army and be the most sensible path to take.
However, he told the House lawmakers, we need your authorization to do that.
Asked by Mr. Owens about what threats the military may face in the next three to five years, Gen. Odierno listed concerns with developments in the Middle East, central and northern Africa and the Korean peninsula.
Gen. Odierno also told Mr. Owens said the U.S. military may not have the full ability to deter future threats if deeper personnel reductions are made.
Video of the hearing can be seen at http://wdt.me/ BwkNEr. Mr. Owenss remarks start at about the 32:40 mark.

Type of Session: Plenary
In treating early-stage breast cancers with favorable prognostic features, the question has been raised as to whether oncologists might be overtreating these patients. In other words, is it necessary to treat an elderly patient with as aggressive a treatment regimen as a younger patient?
The recent CALGB 9343 trial looked at patients with age >70 years, ER+ T1 tumors, who had lumpectomy with negative margins. These patients were treated with either radiation/tamoxifen or tamoxifen alone. With 7 year median follow-up, disease-free survival (DFS) was statistically greater in the patients treated with radiation (99%) vs those treated with tamoxifen alone (94.4%), with equivalent rates of breast preservation in patients who did recur.
This trial, conducted independently by the Austrian Breast and Colorectal Cancer Group looked at a similar question, as addressed by this study.
Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
The follow-up on this study is still relatively short and further analysis will be necessary in the future. Nonetheless, it is an interesting confirmatory study of the results from the CALGB trial. The rates of local control in this population with early stage cancer are excellent overall to date. The addition of radiation therapy clearly reduces the rate of local recurrence.
A difficulty which oncologists still face is in deciding which patients would benefit from radiotherapy. If a patient with a T1N0, favorable-prognosis tumor is otherwise quite elderly and debilitated, it would be reasonable to consider omitting radiotherapy for treatment with hormonal therapy only as the local control is excellent. However, while age is a convenient metric to use when treating patients, it is nonetheless vital to remember that not all patients of the same age have the same life expectancy. If a patient is expected to live for a number of years to come, based upon overall good health and performance status, it would make more sense to treat the patient with XRT to further reduce the chances of local recurrence. But there remains a group of patients who are "in between" these extremes. This requires a difficult clinical judgment on the part of the treating oncologists, which needs to be discussed with the patient. Individualized treatment is clearly of vital importance in treating the elderly patient with favorable, early-stage breast cancer.
