Great appeal. I have the polished fog light and side vent screen also. I have received many compliments since the installation. A pictorial with the installation steps would be of value. After installing the first screen, the second one was quite easy. OBE for me, but a pkg deal on all four screen-able areas would be nice.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
The new Atomic Redster Doubledeck 3.0 XT is one of our top high-performance race skis.
This ski combines the best of two disciplines: the acceleration of the giant slalom and the precision of the slalom.
The new Atomic Redster Doubledeck 3.0 XT is one of our top high-performance race skis. It features our revolutionary RAMP Tech that actively manages your body position to keep you perfectly centralized over your skis through every stage of the turn. This and a Powercore Cap Sidewall construction guarantees you'll carve precisely and with more control. Originally developed for World Cup parallel slalom events, this ski also features next-generation Doubledeck 3.0 technology that delivers advanced shock absorption as well as killer acceleration and quicker turn initiation. With its 65.5 millimeter waist and a 15.5 meter radius, the Redster Doubledeck 3.0 XT is super agile even at top speeds and a perfect blend of GS and SL performance features. The perfect ski for amateur racing or coach level.
Doubledeck 3.0 innovations include a new freegliding upper deck to better absorb shocks and increase stability. We've made the connectors softer at the front to make turn initiation even quicker, and stiffer at the back for killer acceleration.
Redster features the first ever RAMP Tech. Turning at top speed, RAMP Tech automatically lifts your heel by increasing the ramp angle by up to 10°. This pushes your bodyweight forward over the center of your ski, allowing you to maintain your momentum and carve precise turns on hard groomed slopes with less power and more control.
Redster now features a Tapered Sidewall. Thicker towards the rear of the lower ski, it gives more support for acceleration.

Jefferson County Sheriffs Department investigators have identified the three people who died in Saturday afternoons accident on Route 342 between Route 37 and Interstate 81 in the town of Pamelia.
The victims in the 1995 Honda Accord were driver Lucas P. McCormick, 28, Cranberry Lake; front-seat passenger Kimberly A. Rawson, 38, Canton, and back-seat passenger Erik J. Swinyer, 25, Newton Falls. An unidentified toddler, also in the back seat, was flown to Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, and is in critical condition.
The driver of the 2003 Ford pickup, Lois Toland, 64, Hammond, was taken to Samaritan Medical Center, Watertown, where she is stable. She was the lone occupant of the pickup.
Sheriffs investigators said the crash took place at 2:22 p.m., when the Honda, traveling west, crossed the double center line to overtake an uninvolved vehicle and hit the pickup truck, which was going east. The two vehicles hit head-on, sheriff investigators said.

Umm, no he wasn't and both Jordan and MacPhail have admitted there was a "budget". I can only imagine what they could have done with an extra 5M in each of the last three drafts before this one.

Drowsy Driving: Asleep at the Wheel
Learn about the dangers of drowsy driving and the importance of good sleep habits.
Falling asleep at the wheel is clearly dangerous, but being sleepy affects your ability to drive safely even if you don't fall asleep. Drowsiness—
- Makes drivers less attentive.1
- Slows reaction time.1
- Affects a driver's ability to make decisions.1
The scope of the problem
Although it may be difficult to attribute a fatal vehicle crash to drowsy driving, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that 2.5% of fatal crashes and 2% of injury crashes involve drowsy driving.2 These estimates are probably conservative, though, and up to 5,000 or 6,000 fatal crashes each year may be caused by drowsy drivers.3-5
Who's more likely to drive drowsy?
- Commercial drivers.
- Shift workers (work the night shift or long shifts).
- Drivers with untreated sleep disorders such as sleep apnea.
- Drivers who use sedating medications.
- Drivers who do not get adequate sleep.6
How often do Americans fall asleep while driving?
Among nearly 150,000 adults aged at least 18 years or older in 19 states and the District of Columbia, 4.2% reported that they had fallen asleep while driving at least once in the previous 30 days.7 Individuals who snored or usually slept 6 or fewer hours per day were more likely to report this behavior.7
Prevent drowsy driving, before taking the wheel
- Get enough sleep! According to the National Institutes of Health, adults need 7 or 8 hours of sleep a day, while adolescents need 9 or 10 hours.
- If you have a sleep disorder, make sure to seek treatment.
- Refrain from drinking alcohol or taking sedating medications before driving.
Drowsy Driving and Alcohol
Cognitive impairment after approximately 18 hours awake is similar to that of someone with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.05%.8-10 After about 24 hours awake, impairment is equivalent to a BAC of 0.10%, higher than the legal limit in all states.10-11
In addition, lower levels of alcohol (below the legal limit) amplify the effects of inadequate sleep.12-13
The warning signs of drowsy driving—
- Yawning or blinking frequently.
- Difficulty remembering the past few miles driven.
- Missing your exit.
- Drifting from your lane.
- Hitting a rumble strip.
For more warning signs visit the National Sleep Foundation's Drowsy Driving web site.
If you experience any of these warning signs, pull over to rest or change drivers. Simply turning up the radio or opening the window are not effective ways to keep you alert.

PAWTUCKET — This knuckleballer had the Wright stuff on Sunday afternoon.
Steven Wright impressed a large Father's Day crowd at McCoy Stadium with his finest start of the year. Throwing a season-high eight innings -- the Pawtucket Red Sox starter to do so this year -- Wright struck out seven batters and gave up just five hits, a run, and no walks to help the PawSox notch a 5-3 triumph over the Buffalo Bisons.
PAWTUCKET — This knuckleballer had the Wright stuff on Sunday afternoon.
Steven Wright impressed a large Father's Day crowd at McCoy Stadium with his finest start of the year. Throwing a season-high eight innings -- the Pawtucket Red Sox starter to do so this year -- Wright struck out seven batters and gave up just five hits, a run, and no walks to help the PawSox notch a 5-3 triumph over the Buffalo Bisons.
Wright, who was 0-3 with a 6.77 ERA in his last six starts, did a turn for the better with his splendid outing, which saw him master his knuckleball and secondary pitches from start to finish (throwing 69 of his 97 pitches for strikes) and retire 13 straight batters at one point before surrendering the Bisons' run in the eighth.
Wright (3-4) was also backed by a nice helping hand from the errorless defense played behind him -- especially his own -- as he snagged three hot shots belted up the middle to aid his cause.
Second baseman Brock Holt made a stellar play on a grounder up the middle by Ricardo Nanita to end the top of the fourth by backhanding the hard-hit shot and making an off-balanced, one-hop throw to first baseman Brandon Snyder at first base to nab Nanita by a half step, and two innings later, third baseman Jonathan Diaz turned in a nice play on a slow roller by Mike McCoy for the final out of the sixth.
Alex Hassan armed Wright and the PawSox a quick 2-0 lead in the home half of the first inning with a two-out, two-run double that hugged the left-field line and one-hopped the fence. That knocked in Diaz, who smacked a base hit up the middle and past the dive of shortstop Ryan Goins, and Mitch Maier, who followed with a walk.
In the third, the PawSox tacked on their other three runs off Buffalo starter Chad Jenkins, who exited the game after the inning, as leadoff singles by Diaz and Maier was followed by a three-run homer by Brandon Snyder, who deposited a 2-1 pitch into the berm in left for his 10th homer of the season.
Wright, meanwhile, was cruising until the eighth, when the leadoff batter, Moises Sierra, legged out an infield hit in the hole that was almost turned into a great play by shortstop Xander Bogaerts.
Three pitches later to the next batter, former Pawtucket infielder Andy LaRoche, Wright uncorked a wild pitch, and with one out, Nanita ended Wright's shutout bid with a sharp ground single up the middle.
Wright eventually retired the next two batters he faced before giving way to Chris Martin in the ninth. Martin gave the PawSox some anxious moments, allowing a two-run homer into the berm in left to former PawSox slugger Mauro Gomez that cut the Bisons' deficit in half, but that was all the damage the Bisons could muster.
Less than 24 hours after getting one-hit in a 2-1 defeat to the Bisons, the PawSox banged out 10 hits, with two each coming off the bats of Diaz and catcher Dan Butler.
Reliever Pedro Beato became the latest PawSox player to earn a promotion to Boston. He was added to the 40-man roster, and he left Pawtucket early Sunday morning and flew to Baltimore to join the Red Sox, who he briefly pitched for last season and went 1-0 with a 4.70 ERA in four appearances (7 2/3 innings).
Beato, who pitched from the Mets in parts of the 2011 and '12 season before he was dealt to the Red Sox last Aug. 16 for backup catcher Kelly Shoppach, went 4-1 with two saves, 29 strikeouts, and a 1.89 ERA in 19 games (33 1/3 innings) this year with the PawSox.
To make room for Beato, another righthander, Rubby De La Rosa, was sent back down to Pawtucket, just two days after he was called up to add depth to Boston's bullpen, only to not appear in a game against the Orioles.
De La Rosa, who was 0-1 with 38 strikeouts and a 3.29 ERA in 11 starts (only covering 38 1/3 innings) with the PawSox, will return to the rotation and is expected to make his scheduled start against the Columbus Clippers tonight.
EXTRA BASES: Reliever Jose De La Torre was placed on the temporary inactive list on Saturday (retroactive to June 13), and another righty, Brock Huntzinger, was promoted from Double-A Portland to replace him in the bullpen. … Huntzinger, who was 3-0 with a 2.32 ERA and 13 saves in 25 games with the Sea Dogs, delivered a 1-2-3 inning in his PawSox debut last night against the Bisons. … Gomez's homer was his International League-leading 18th. ... Three of the Bisons' eight hits in the game did not leave the infield. ... It was a tough day at the plate for the top two prospects in the PawSox's lineup, outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. and Bogaerts. They teamed up to go 0-for-7 with two strikeouts. … LaRoche made two nice running catches on pop fouls near the stands along the third-base line. … Sunday's win was the third in the four-game series over the second-place Bisons, allowing the first-place PawSox to extend their I.L. North lead over them to five games. … The PawSox will now head to Ohio for their four-game series with the Clippers and another four-game set with the Toledo Mud Hens. They will return home on Tuesday, June 25, to kick off a homestand that will start with another four games against the Mud Hens.

UL System policies regarding the prohibition of harassment, discrimination and retaliation against individuals based upon any protected status, including their retirement status or age.
Policies regarding retaliation have undergone many revisions. All efforts have been made to remove all documents from the McNeese State University website that contain information that is misleading or in conflict with its policies regarding harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. This includes a removal of all references to subjecting individuals to adverse actions for false complaints of harassment, discrimination, or retaliation which may have an unduly chilling effect on an individual who has been subjected to such action.

FORT DRUM Soldiers from post and their military working dogs trained Thursday to face some of the threats they may experience overseas.
The pairings use the animals powerful sense of smell to detect and thwart potential threats such as explosives and illegal drugs.
K-9 is a very asked-for asset within the Army, said Sgt. 1st Class Anthony J. Bostwick, the posts kennel master. Were deployed a lot.
Sgt. Bostwick estimated the post had about 15 teams, using German shepherds, Labrador retrievers and other breeds. The post has not had a full collection of handlers at home in at least five years.
Beyond their military functions, local teams have trained with area police dog units and secured civilian events such as last years vice presidential debates.
At the posts USO office Thursday, dog teams swept through its lounge searching for smells that simulated explosives.
Come on ... lets do some hunting, Sgt. Gloria L. Greenidge said, as she entered with her 3-year-old male Belgian malinois, named Dzamar. The two have been together for about a year.
The two quickly worked through the training, with Sgt. Greenidge placing her hands near areas she wanted the dog to inspect.
Dzamar was able to use the hand signals to find the simulated smell of TNT in a table drawer and behind a television in a computer lab, sitting when he made his discovery.
Each time, he was rewarded with his pink rubber chew toy.
To the dog, its a game, Sgt. Greenidge said. You want to keep it fun.
The skills practiced can come in handy during deployment, said Sgt. Rodolfo Martinez, who returned in December from a yearlong deployment in Afghanistan with his 4-year-old Belgian malinois, Ttaryn. The double-letter spelling indicates she was bred in the Military Working Dog Breeding Program at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas.
Sgt. Martinez said using a dog can trim the time to inspect something like the USO building for explosives from about eight hours using only people to about one to two hours.
Paired with artillery and infantry units while deployed across the country, Sgt. Martinez and his dog, who have been together about 18 months, were often leading patrols.
Its our responsibility to bring everybody back, he said. However, he said, the dogs skills also make him and Ttaryn one of the first targets for insurgents.
In addition to using her sense of smell, Ttaryn served as a morale boost for units she worked with.
She loves the attention, Sgt. Martinez said. They wanted to keep her, and send me back.
The two soldiers are with the 8th Military Working Dog Detachment, 227th Military Police Detachment, 91st Military Police Battalion. The battalion falls under the 16th Military Police Brigade, Fort Bragg, N.C.
Though technically classified by the military as equipment, soldiers described their partner dogs as an integral part of their work.
You cant treat the dog like equipment, Sgt. Greenidge said.
Like their partner soldiers, dogs can be fitted for protective gear, including Kevlar vests, shoes and even dog goggles, called doggles, which protect the dogs eyes from dust.
Dog handlers have to request specifically to be in the program, and both dogs and handlers are reviewed carefully before being put into service.
If that bond isnt connecting, the handler or that dog is going to get switched, Sgt. Bostwick said.
In recent months, there has been congressional debate on whether dogs should be reclassified as canine service members instead of equipment.
How could you look at this animal whos saved thousands of lives and compare them to a tank, a rifle or a Jeep? said Ronald L. Aiello, president of the United States War Dogs Association, Burlington, N.J. Theyre living beings. ... You have to reclassify them as something reasonable.
He said a portion of the recently signed 2013 defense authorization bill that would allow for such a change in classification was removed.
However, the bill did approve the transportation of retired military dogs through already scheduled cargo flights that would make post-service adoptions more affordable; for dogs to be honored for exceptional action, and for a framework to be created allowing adopted military dogs to be seen by military veterinarians. Mr. Aiello said the changes would have minimal to no costs for taxpayers.
A letter sent Dec. 31 by six U.S. senators Richard Blumenthal, John F. Kerry, Olympia J. Snow, Patty Murray, Bernard Sanders and New Yorks Kirsten E. Gillibrand asked Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta to reconsider reclassifying the military dogs.

Guidelines for Retirement Board Travel Regulations
The Public Employee Retirement Administration Commission recognizes that Retirement Board Members and the Retirement Board staff must perform their fiduciary duties in an efficient, effective and informed manner. The Commission recognizes the importance of continuing education; the need for informed decision making by Retirement Board Members; and the need for a broader public pension perspective, gained through association with other Retirement Boards and administrators, both within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and throughout the nation. These objectives can be accomplished with the assistance of reasonable, efficient and effective travel and educational regulations. The Commission therefore directs Retirement Boards to enact regulations within 60 days to govern travel by Board Members and staff members of Retirement Boards.
The purpose of these guidelines is to provide a framework for Retirement Boards to use in developing regulations that deal with travel by Board Members and Board staff. These guidelines are in addition to, and, in some respects, more stringent than the provisions of G.L. c. 268A. Terms common to these guidelines and G.L. c. 268A shall have the meaning ascribed to them by G.L. c. 268A and rulings issued pursuant to that law. Retirement Boards may adopt regulations that are more stringent than, these guidelines, however, Board regulations must include all of the aspects outlined in these guidelines, supplemented as a particular Board determines necessary for its circumstances. Board regulations are to be adopted and submitted to the Commission for review and approval as required by the provisions of G.L. c. 7, § 50 and c. 32, § 21(4). Any Retirement Board Supplemental Regulations in effect shall be modified so as to be consistent with these guidelines and submitted to the Commission for review and approval as required by the provisions of G.L. c. G.L. c. 7, § 50 and 32, § 21(4).
The Board's regulations shall require that all travel related expenses that are to be paid for by the Board shall be related to the purpose of the authorized travel and shall be cost-effective. Retirement Board regulations shall, at a minimum, deal with all of the following aspects:
Authorization for Travel and Travel Related Expenditures
Board regulations shall state that the Board shall pay for or make reimbursement to Board Members and the staff of the Retirement Board for all travel and lodging expenses except as specifically authorized in these guidelines for expenses related to legitimate speaking engagements. Board regulations should detail the method by which travel and expenses related to travel are to be authorized, and should include the following provisions:
1. Travel and related expenses are to be approved by the Board in advance of the travel.
2. Requests for travel by Board Members shall be placed on a Board meeting agenda, discussed in open session and approved by a majority vote of the Members of the Board present and voting. The meeting minutes shall reflect the Board's action and the extent of the authorization.
3. The nature of the travel, its purpose and estimated cost shall be outlined on a travel authorization form. The form must include a statement by the traveler, certifying that the expenses were incidental to the approved travel. Brochures for seminars or other presentations should accompany the request for travel where available.
4. A statement describing the presentation, conference or seminar should be entered into the minutes of the meeting following the travel.
5. A Board may authorize the Executive Director/Board Administrator to approve travel for other members of the Board's staff. Guidelines for Board staff travel should be developed and approved by the Board and must incorporate the provisions set out in these Guidelines.
Required Documentation for Reimbursement
Board regulations must detail the method by which Board Members and Board staff are to be reimbursed for travel-related expenses. The Board should develop a form to be used in connection with any requests for reimbursement, requiring that the traveler certify that the expenses were incurred and were necessary and incidental to the approved travel. The regulations shall require that requests for reimbursement be submitted within a reasonable time after the expenses are incurred, but no later than within 30 days.
1. Any requests for reimbursement should be completed and properly approved after incurring any travel, transportation or meal or other travel related expenses and before reimbursement takes place.
2. Original itemized receipts must be submitted for all expenses including transportation, lodging, and other expenses incidental to travel.
3. Receipts should be required for individual expenses over $10. Travel-related expenses that are under $10 (such as gratuities) should be fully described and reimbursed based on the traveler's certification that the expenses were necessary and incidental to the approved travel.
4. Any travel-related expenditures which have not been properly documented or approved or are not in conformity with the Board's regulations must be rejected or adjusted.
5. Reimbursement shall only be made to the person who actually made payment for the expense.
6. The Reimbursement Request Form must be signed by the person seeking reimbursement and signed under the pains and penalties of perjury.
Travel Arrangements
The Board should designate a Board staff member who is responsible for making all travel arrangements and for assisting Board Members and Board staff in completing authorization and reimbursement forms. When making travel arrangements, government rates or business rates will be secured. An extended stay may be authorized if the net cost to the Board will be lower. For example, if airline fare is lowered by staying an extra day and the cost of accommodations and meals for that extra day results in a net savings to the Board, an extended stay can be authorized.
The Board regulations should allow for airline, train, bus, automobile rental, taxi, or other form of public conveyance (as cost effective) to be utilized. All travel should be at the lowest fare available, generally economy/coach fare. The Board may determine that certain routing criteria are to be implemented, for example, requiring no more than one interim stop each way; not requiring more than one scheduled airplane transfer each way; and allowing for reasonable departure and arrival times.
The Board regulations must prohibit payment for airline club memberships.
The Board should require that the source of rental cars be a national rental agency. The rental rate should be negotiated by the staff member responsible for arranging travel. The regulations should identify the class of motor vehicle that will be authorized for rental. It is the traveler's responsibility to verify that the rate charged is the rate negotiated.
The regulations must require acceptance of optional insurance coverage for rental cars.
The Board must require that any motor vehicle accidents which occur while using a rental car while on Board-approved travel be reported as soon as practicable, in writing to the appropriate authorities, with copies of all such reports provided to the Board.
Board regulations must prohibit reimbursement for fines or other expenses incurred as a result of traffic violations while on Board-approved travel. The traveler is personally responsible for such expenses.
The Board's regulations should detail the allowable reimbursements for use of personal motor vehicles when such usage is cost effective. The regulations should specify the per-mile expense rate allowed, which shall not exceed the amount allowed by the Internal Revenue Service. The regulations should also provide whether parking fees and toll charges will be reimbursed.
The Board's regulations must require that all reservations for accommodations should be made in advance by the Board staff member designated as responsible for making travel arrangements. It is the traveler's responsibility to verify that the rate charged is the rate negotiated by the staff member. The Board's regulations should identify the class of accommodations that are authorized for reimbursement.
The Board's regulations must identify the maximum daily reimbursable amount for the cost of meals while on Board authorized travel. The Board's regulations may allow for reimbursement in excess of the allowable amount for travel to high-cost locations.
The regulations should require that if reimbursement is sought for meal expenses for others, these individuals are to be identified along with their affiliation and a description of the purpose of the meeting. Reimbursement shall be made only for meetings that are for business purposes.
The Board's regulations should deal with circumstances under which the registration fees for a conference or seminar includes lodging and meals. In these instances, the Board regulations should prohibit reimbursement for lodging and meals included in the cost of registration.

Video: Fishin' with Liz: Inspirational Angler
Just about every week you'll find 26-year-old Hunter Baughman on the Arkansas River.
"I'm at peace, at home. I feel like I'm doing what I like to do," says Hunter.
The outdoors is his passion.
Hunter says, "My whole family fishes. I've grown up, long as I can remember, fishing and I hunt just as much and it's just a way of life."
A way of life that's become an inspiration for many.
He explains, "I walk on my knees and just like everybody else, maybe a little slower, but I do anything anyone else can do."
Hunter's story began when he was just a baby. At 9 months old he contracted bacterial meningitis.
"They amputated both of my legs below the knees, all the fingers off my left hand and partial fingers off my right and to look at it as a blessing would be strange in some people's eyes but in my eyes it's a blessing because it's all I've ever known and that's how I've grown up and this is normal for me."
And there's nothing Hunter says he can't do.
"I work, I drive a truck, ride a 4 wheeler, drive a boat, fish, hunt, bowl, shoot a compound bow, you name it," he says.
And recently, THV's Liz Massey had the honor of hitting the water with him. It's there where Hunter feels he's on an equal playing field with everyone else.
"I'm just holding the rod across my left hand and just kind of pick up on it like that and when I cast, it's just grab it like this and kind of push with my left hand on the rod," Hunter explains.
Hunter's now made it his mission to help others. He's the Director of Funding for Dream Catcher Outdoor Adventures. The non-profit which relies solely on donations takes adults and children with physically disabilities or who are terminally ill hunting and fishing at no cost. Hunter went on the group's first hunt back in 1999.
"And to show them it's okay you can still do whatever you want to do, you just got to put your mind to it, it's rewarding," he says.
As for the future, Hunter hopes to become a professional angler.
And with his alluring attitude he's sure to reel in a lifetime of success.
He says, "Stay positive, stay positive is the biggest thing and if there is a will there is a way."
And Hunter Baughman is living proof.
As for his boat, Hunter says people always ask but he's done nothing special to it. And congratulations are in order because Hunter's getting married in a couple weeks.
For more information on Dream Catcher Outdoor Adventures you can call Hunter at 501-580-2505.

I have a contact in India using redhat linux 7.3 on a mail server and he needs to upgrade or install new redhat 8 disks. He's not very familiar with sendmail and needs some pointers for the enterprise.
Most of my experience is in the home environment so I don't feel very comfortable giving absolute advice.
This is what I sent in an email. Any suggestions would be welcome. I've asked him to join the forum too, so he may answer you directly with any posts you may have.
That is really a big task to support via email. I'd suggest the following:
RedHat 8 and 9 are no longer supported by RedHat. No new updates or patches are being created. Only RedHat Enterprise is supported now and you have to pay for updates & support. That may be difficult from India.
If cost & support are limiting factors, then I'd upgrade to Fedora Core 1 which looks just like RedHat, RPMs and all. It is partially financed by RedHat and they seem to be incorporating Fedora features into their Enterprise edition. Fedora Core 2 is too unstable at the moment. My mail server runs on Fedora Core 1 quite well.
Creating a replacement mail server can be tricky. If users use POP to get mail from the server, then you'll have to recreate all their linux usernames on the new server. I don't know what you need to do if they use IMAP, I've never used it before, but it is the default email system used by Microsoft Exchange.
At the very least you'll have to make sure the files in /etc/mail on the new server matches that of the old one.
DNS & IP addresses will be another issue. You'll probably want to have the new mailserver have a different IP address from the old server. When everything is ready for the switch, then change DNS to point mail to the new server. This link should give you a guideline:
You'll also have to consider other applications running on the mail server. It may not just handle mail, but other things as well. Make sure you do a lot of research just to make sure.

MASSENA Massena High School was locked down for about 12 minutes Thursday afternoon for what Superintendent William W. Crist described as an internal situation.
Principal Patrick J. Farrand felt it was important to keep students out of the hallways, said Mr. Crist, who did not elaborate on what happened. It was a situation where the principal felt it would be helpful for students to be in their classrooms. It was about a 12-minute lockdown.
Massena Police Department responded, but it wasnt anything where students were in an imminent threat of danger, the superintendent said.
It was the second incident at the school this week. On Tuesday several students were brought to Massena Memorial Hospital after taking the prescription drug Xanax, Police Chief Timmy J. Currier said.
There were concerns medically involving four or five students, he said.

There is knitting! I always try to have at least one pair of socks in progress, so that if I'm running out the door I have something to grab. I started these socks forever ago, but finally yesterday finished the first sock of the pair! It's a very pretty sock. I fully intend to knit its mate quickly and be finished in a few days. Maybe I'll surprise even myself and do just that!
The yarn is Zauberball Crazy color 2092 I think, and it's very reminiscent of the good old Trekking XXL colors that I don't think they produce anymore. Like these socks that now belong to my mother-in-law.
The pattern I'm using is my favorite sock pattern ever, Judy Gibson's You're Putting Me On! I just counted on Ravelry and I have 17 projects listed using this pattern. You would think that I wouldn't need to carry around the pattern anymore, and you'd be wrong. I keep the pattern in my little sock bag with whatever pair of socks I'm knitting. Mostly I refer to the pattern for the heel turn.
What's more, if you were to go into my filing cabinet and locate the knitting pattern folders, and then find the one labeled "socks" you would find at least 4 other copies of the same exact pattern. Sometimes during a knitting emergency, you can't waste time locating the ONE copy of the pattern for which you need to cast on. You need to print out the pattern immediately so you can CAST ON THIS SECOND. You know?
Anyway. These socks are knit over 72 stitches – a perfect fit for me or my Mom or my mother-in-law. It's good to keep them all guessing. No one ever knows who I'm knitting socks for (even me!). After the toe I started working in garter rib. That means that one round is KNIT and the next round is K2,P2, and you repeat those two rounds. Near the cuff, I began working a plain 2×2 rib.
There is one other knitting project I worked on earlier in the summer. It had so much promise! But I messed up and then gave up. I should find the bag I stuffed it in and blog about it. Yes. That's what I'll do.

It was around 11:30 a.m. and we saw the smoke first and went to investigate. The surrounding streets were already blocked off and we were told by a representitive of the Fire Department it was an empty warehouse.
Lots of folks came to look and take videos and photographs. Quite an event in the little town of Moxee. Glad it didn't happen when we were having the Hope Festival this past weekend.

Carbon County's economy continues to generate expanding employment despite the fact that the local jobless rate climbed by one-half of a percentage point in June.
The latest data compiled by the Utah Department of Workforce Services indicate that Carbon's labor market reported 10,249 civilian employment opportunities in June 2009, representing a 7.5 percent job growth rate from last year's 9,977 figure. In June 2009 and June 2008, active participants in the local labor force totaled 9,556 and 9,516 respectively.
Nevertheless, Carbon's unemployment rate registered at 6.8 percent in June 2009, with 693 unemployed residents. By comparison, 647 displaced workers were searching for jobs in May, when Carbon County's unemployment rate registered at 6.3 percent.
At the state level, Utah's non-farm wage and salaried job contracted by 3.7 percent in June, according to data generated by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. Approximately 46,100 jobs have been removed from the Utah economy during the last year, lowering total wage and salary employment to 1,215,400 statewide.
Utah's second primary indicator of labor market conditions, the unemployment rate, rose to 5.7 percent in June from last year's 3.3 percent jobless level. Approximately 78,100 and 46,000 Utahns were considered unemployed in June 2009 and June 2008 respectively.
At the national level, the United States unemployment rate continued to escalate, reaching 9.5 percent in June.
"We can speak of the Utah economy and its situation, but the Utah economy is not going to act independently of the national economy," noted DWS representative Mark Knold. "Therefore, the key to seeing Utah's future is to focus upon the national economy and to monitor its prospects. Nationally, job losses were higher than expected in June, yet they were lower than expected the month before, in May. Which month was the anomaly? Probably both. If the employment profile of the two months are averaged, it fits nicely into the trend pattern of employment declines of the past 16 months. That's not to say more job losses are a good thing, only that of the past 16 months. That's not to say more job losses are a good thing, only that the heavy job losses in June are probably not an indication that the economy has jumped off track. A tepid economic rebound beginning sometime in the next six months is still anticipated."
The road to recovery will be a long one, with employment and jobless numbers being one of the last variables to respond, predicted the state department of workforce services economist.
"A Utah rebound in output will move hand in hand with the rise in national output," explained Knold. "Many analysts believe that will occur during the second half of 2009. If so, the earliest an employment rebound can be expected in Utah would then be sometime during the first half of 2010.
The extreme shock to the nation's financial sector is the primary culprit of this economic downturn. As the Utah economy did not avoid the national financial impact, it will not develop any kind of economic rebound in defiance of the economic drag that continues to plague the nation's economy."
Utah's financial sector lost 3,000 labor force positions during the last year, while the state's construction industry dropped 18,000 jobs and the manufacturing industry shed 13,300 employment opportunities.
"Probably the major reason for the relative moderation in financial losses is that Utah did not have a major Wall Street presence within the framework of its financial structure. Banks, credit unions, credit card centers and mortgage activities make up the bulk of Utah's financial framework," noted the DWS economist. "Where the financial collapse hit Utah hardest was in the construction sector - particularly in residential construction. The precursors to the financial bubble fueled a housing boom and housing price run-up in Utah. Home building flourished. This caused a construction industry thatis normally around 6 percent of the Utah employment base to swell to nearly 9 percent. In retrospect, this was an employment percentage not sustainable by historic standards, and then pendulum was destined to swing. Anytime economic variables are out of kilter with their historical norms, either a boom or bust environment is underway. Time always brings it back into balance. It was the shutting down of the credit markets that had the greatest impact upon pulling back Utah's construction industry,"
On the positive side of the employment spectrum, Utah's population growth acts as the driving force behind the two industries managing to add jobs during the current downturn - health care and education. But the state's public and higher education systems may not continue to post labor market growth as 2009 progresses.
"It will be interesting to evaluate when the next school year begins in August whether Utah's education community will be able to maintain, let alone expand upon, its teaching base in the face of strained budgets," concluded Knold.

For bambeco founders Susan and Carolyn, the "ah ha" came while standing on a dramatically receding glacier in the wilds of Alaska. The evidence of climate change was real, like right under their feet—and they knew they had to do something to make a lasting impact. Changing up her personal habits led Susan to an inspiring question: What if there was one place to shop where every product impacted the world in a positive way? Thus their collection of high quality, stylin' wares that are all reclaimed, repurposed, recycled, natural or organic. Vases are made from the stumps logging companies left behind, promoting faster forest growth. Wood from a centuries old home gives a bread board some fine character. Each and every piece is on its own little mission to do good.
