prev | next
The Chief of Engineers, under the supervision of the Secretary of the Army, is authorized to construct, maintain, and operate public park and recreational facilities at water resource development projects under the control of the Department of the Army, to permit the construction of such facilities by local interests (particularly those to be operated and maintained by such interests), and to permit the maintenance and operation of such facilities by local interests. The Secretary of the Army is also authorized to grant leases of lands, including structures or facilities thereon, at water resource development projects for such periods, and upon such terms and for such purposes as he may deem reasonable in the public interest: Provided, That leases to nonprofit organizations for park or recreational purposes may be granted at reduced or nominal considerations in recognition of the public service to be rendered in utilizing the leased premises: Provided further, That preference shall be given to federally recognized Indian tribes and Federal, State, or local governmental agencies, and licenses or leases where appropriate, may be granted without monetary considerations, to such Indian tribes or agencies for the use of all or any portion of a project area for any public purpose, when the Secretary of the Army determines such action to be in the public interest, and for such periods of time and upon such conditions as he may find advisable: And provided further, That in any such lease or license to a federally recognized Indian tribe [1] Federal, State, or local governmental agency which involves lands to be utilized for the development and conservation of fish and wildlife, forests, and other natural resources, the licensee or lessee may be authorized to cut timber and harvest crops as may be necessary to further such beneficial uses and to collect and utilize the proceeds of any sales of timber and crops in the development, conservation, maintenance, and utilization of such lands. Any balance of proceeds not so utilized shall be paid to the United States at such time or times as the Secretary of the Army may determine appropriate. The water areas of all such projects shall be open to public use generally for boating, swimming, bathing, fishing, and other recreational purposes, and ready access to and exit from such areas along the shores of such projects shall be maintained for general public use, when such use is determined by the Secretary of the Army not to be contrary to the public interest, all under such rules and regulations as the Secretary of the Army may deem necessary, including but not limited to prohibitions of dumping and unauthorized disposal in any manner of refuse, garbage, rubbish, trash, debris, or litter of any kind at such water resource development projects, either into the waters of such projects or onto any land federally owned and administered by the Chief of Engineers. Any violation of such rules and regulations shall be punished by a fine of not more than $500 or imprisonment for not more than six months, or both. Any persons charged with the violation of such rules and regulations may be tried and sentenced in accordance with the provisions of section 3401 of title 18. All persons designated by the Chief of Engineers for that purpose shall have the authority to issue a citation for violation of the regulations adopted by the Secretary of the Army, requiring the appearance of any person charged with violation to appear before the United States magistrate judge, within whose jurisdiction the water resource development project is located, for trial; and upon sworn information of any competent person any United States magistrate judge in the proper jurisdiction shall issue process for the arrest of any person charged with the violation of said regulations; but nothing herein contained shall be construed as preventing the arrest by any officer of the United States, without process, of any person taken in the act of violating said regulations. No use of any area to which this section applies shall be permitted which is inconsistent with the laws for the protection of fish and game of the State in which such area is situated. All moneys received by the United States for leases or privileges shall be deposited in the Treasury of the United States as miscellaneous receipts.

Why Glide-Forks Slam on Re-Bound by Robert Luland
VT (aka Plumber), I've been sending mine (forks) to Bill's (Pennsylvania) for the last twenty-five years. He's got the right tools and experience to get the job done the right way the first time around. That (Kent-Moore) puller head is more precise than you can believe. The catch on the end has to be .064 on the money to grab these things (lower bushings) and that's no guarantee. I've done it in the past scoring it with a saws all blade tack welded to something but it wasn't worth the time wasted, but I can turn ya on to some helpful tips when it comes to the glide front end.
The bushing to tube relationship is important. With out that seal the hydraulics don't work. I've seen a lot of people on the forums complaining about their front end banging back. Some buddies of mine back in the eighties did some experimenting. Our conclusion was simple. Original tubes are hard chrome plated. If you look at one closely you will see what looks like a cross-hatch pattern similar to a newly rebuilt engine cylinder. This forms a seal to the bushing. Every front end that banged back we found had show chrome tubes. That smooth finish leaves no seal. Forking by Frank can still give you the good tubes. I also found that I don't like the way the factory reamer finishes the job. I prefer to have the bushings pulled and inserted by some one else but that's were it ends. I prefer using a dingle-berry hone with honing fluid. You can get one from McMaster-Carr for twenty bucks. Using this hone also leaves a cross-hatch on the bushing surface.
Well that's it for today's science project. Bob and Katie Dog.

The benthos is the community of organisms that live in or on the bottom of the Bay and its tributaries. Examples of some benthic animals that live in Chesapeake Bay sediments include clams, amphipods, polychaetes (bristle worms), and isopods. Benthic macroinvertebrates are used as biological indicators because they are reliable and sensitive indicators of habitat quality in aquatic environments and they are ecologically important components of the Chesapeake Bay's food web.
The long-term benthic sampling program has two components. Probability samples are collected during the summer at 150 randomly-selected sites in 6 major regions of the Chesapeake Bay mainstem and tributaries in Maryland. Results from the probability sampling are used to determine the number of acres that meet the Chesapeake Bay Benthic Restoration Goals. These goals define a healthy benthic macroinvertebrate community. The second component of the program samples 27 fixed sites to see if management actions designed to improve water quality are resulting in healthier benthic communities. Benthic community health serves as a measure of water quality that is integrated over time because it captures the effect of water quality problem such as low dissolved oxygen that occurred prior to the time of sampling.

I've been using an old Nikon Coolpix L22 with "OK" results and it has come time for an upgrade. My needs are simple. I want to stick with the simplicity of a P&S, take higher quality pictures in varying light and have a wide angle lense for landscapes. After searching the forum it seems like the Canon S100 is a VERY popular choice. I like that it has a lot of manual adjustability but have very little experience with doing so (might be nice down the road). Does this camera have a basic automatic mode that will cover most instances without having to fool around with the settings very much? I'm might also consider the previous Canon models S90 or S95 if these are more suitable for the amateur photographer. Thanks for everyones help in advance!
The Canon User Interface is highly respected in the industry, and afaik all the reasonable Canon cameras have two 'automatic' settings. One is 'Auto', and that is totally automatic, while the other is P(rogram), which is automatic as well except that it will not turn the flash on automatically. Me, I never use Auto; I mostly use P.But most Canon cameras have several other useful modes as well.Cheers(I can recommend the G11/G12.)
We've used several Canon cameras powered by AA batteries, and been quite pleased both with the picture quality, and the fact that it is easy to change batteries, and spares match what is used for the rest of equipment. I am currently using an SX130, and I believe there is another SX camera just released. I get around 270 photos with a set of alkaline AAs, and more than that with NiMH batteries. The Canon cameras take a fair bit of abuse, and do not seem to mind it.
"But most Canon cameras have several other useful modes as well."Agreed, Roger, but to use those other modes it requires the user to actually read and try to understand the owner's manual.I have about 10,000 clicks on one camera, and probably 9,800 of those used P mode. Av mode is good if you are trying to do HDR. Tv mode is good if you are trying to shoot birds in flight.--B.G.--
The S-series has a good reputation for advanced compacts and yes, give a tremendous amount of user control, albeit a lot of it buried in the menu system. It does have the traditional "PASM" dial, even if Canon insists on replacing S with T. (You'll have to ask them.) Set to full automatic I'm confident it will give good results while you're poring through the manual. When you're feeling daring, you can switch from jpeg to RAW to get best results.Biggest shortcomings are no flash hotshoe and terrible battery life--plan on carrying spares. Otherwise, a competent little camera in a category that used to be pretty spare but is now packed with contenders.Cheers,Rick
"even if Canon insists on replacing S with T"Because on their patented exposure dial Canon opted for Av (aperture value) and Tv (Time value) easier/shorter than Shutter Speed value.
" "even if Canon insists on replacing S with T"Because on their patented exposure dial Canon opted for Av (aperture value) and Tv (Time value) easier/shorter than Shutter Speed value."I wonder how they will try to manage this in a cell phone camera (which does not have a real aperture). Come to think of it, it doesn't have a real shutter, either.--B.G.--
Clever scamps! Similar to the last Toyota I drove, with the accelerator pedal on the left. "We're so going to patent this."Cheers,Rick
Whew! I was afraid this was another gun thread....until I saw it was in Photography!
Bob wrote> I have about 10,000 clicks on one camera, and probably 9,800 of those used P mode.Out in the field I would be generally similar, plus or minus a bit.At home taking techie photos on a tripod for articles I am writing - then I use the features quite a lot.Cheers
I wonder how they will try to manage this in a cell phone camera (which does not have a real aperture).I am pretty sure that every camera , in a phone or otherwise, does have at least one real aperture..Maybe not all that clear to some, so here we go...If a lens has a set of available apertures then you can have an aperture priority mode, called Av by Canon.So let's say you have F2.8/3.5/5.6 and F 8, well you choose the one you like and the camera will set the corresponding shutter speed.Obviously if your lens only has one aperture (as it is the case for most phones and gadgets) you cannot have an "aperture priority" because there is no choice to be made...mind you , Canon does not sell phones.

Roger, you also recommended the G11/G12. They are very nice but are a bit larger and more $ than I wanted to spend, $400ish.Rick, you mentioned the terrible battery life of the S100. What can one expect with the GPS turned off/on? How does the S95 compare with the S100? Thanks again.
Edited by jake.L on 12/20/2012 12:03:42 MST.
Hi JakeYes, the G series is dearer. But a little secret for you: afaik the S series is the P&S version of the G series. I am not sure of the exact numbers, but I think the S95 may be the P&S version of the G10, and the S100 matches the G11 - or something like that.The point is, photographically they are essentially the same quality, but the S series is cheaper and simpler to use.Cheers
Hi Jake,They both have a CIPA rating of 200 shots. DPR had this to say about the 95:"Canon quotes a battery life of approximately 200 images per charge, but in our experience this represents the outer limit of the tiny 3.7Wh battery's abilities. In normal use we can squeeze between 150-200 images from the S95 before it gives up the ghost, which puts the camera firmly in the 'spare battery essential' category."You can certainly fiddle with settings to coax the most life out of battery, but in my experience with various cameras, only by a +/- 10-20% factor. A number of advanced compacts will get twice this or more, but a couple spares are easy to carry so no big deal. It's a pain to have one go out when shooting on the go, however.Cheers,Rick
I have been using an s90 for several years, just got back from a trip and got 280 shots on one battery. I do carry a spare battery if needed. I also just bought a s100 and it looks to be a nice improvement over the 90 and 95. Not sure the 110 is enough of an improvement to warrant the higher price.

Hit level 60 two days ago feels nice now working butt of to get full epic gear.
Event finally finished 2 days ago and I got my twin wraith vipers
The Stanley Parable was really fun. I'm not sure if there's even more than maybe an hour on content in it though. Each time I went through, I found myself getting really sucked into the drama because of the amazing underscore and narrative. Anyone know exactly how many hours of content is in this game because while it's great, I'm still trying to find out why it's $15.00. Also, they should do updates for it too.
Found this on gamejolt, it was funny for like 10 minutes and I'm sure it got better, but I'm impatient.
I've been finding myself wanting to make videos lately.
omg the cash shop in this game is super redic lol
even tho sliding around on the ground and jumping is fun l
but the cash shop...200$ for something call the trinity pack which is hardly anything imo
and then ontop of the trinity pack you would want prime access and thats 139$
and then the lowest option for the ingame cash is 75 for 5$
it costs about 75 for 1 item lol
the cash shop is super over price considering they make you wait 12 hours to craft an item or use cashshop money to speed it up which would be dumb when you could buy a cash shop item
am i missing something or....

Pamelia will reduce contamination in its drinking water to meet state Department of Health guidelines by drawing water from a golf course well and mixing it with its treated supply.
The Town Council approved a plan Monday to pump water out of a well at Highland Meadows Golf Course into its water system. That well water will be mixed with treated water taken in from the city of Watertown to dilute excess contamination from disinfectant byproducts. Contamination in the drinking water has been caused by the long time that treated water sits while it travels from Watertown to Pamelia, via a water line operated by the Development Authority of the North Country.
Town officials negotiated a contract with golf course owner James A. Doolittle to purchase water from a well at the site, 24201 Route 342. The town will spend about $125,000 to build a 1,000-foot water line that will link to a town line, along with the purchase of a submersible pump and filtration system. The project will be put out for bids this summer, with the goal of starting construction in the fall.
The contract with Mr. Doolittle is expected to result in overall savings for the town, Supervisor Lawrence C. Longway told board members Monday.
The town will purchase water from Mr. Doolittle for the first five years of the contract at a rate of $1.20 per 1,000 gallons. Thats less than half the rate at which it now buys water from the authority of $2.75 per 1,000 gallons. After the contracts fifth year, the town has agreed to pay Mr. Doolittle 35 cents less than the going rate at which it buys water from the authority.
Im hoping the savings will cover the $125,000 to do this, Mr. Longway said.
In recent years, Pamelia residents have received letters from the town saying that water is safe to drink, but that it exceeds the maximum contamination level allowed for disinfectant byproducts.
Those byproducts called trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids are produced by the chlorine used by the city to treat the water. When chlorine travels long distances and sits for long periods without use, especially in warm weather, it has time to interact with organic matter to produce disinfectant byproducts. The organic matter comes from the Black River, where the city gets its water.
The town has not yet determined the ratio at which it will blend well and treated water, Mr. Longway said. It could decide to use well water as its exclusive source, if it meets guidelines set by the state Health Department. The well water is much harder than city-treated water because of its mineral content.
Under the towns plan, well water would be injected with chlorine before a submersible pump sends it into the water line, where it will start mixing immediately with treated water from the city. The water will flow west to fill up the town water tower, behind the town office on Route 37. When the 125,000-gallon tower is full, 43,000 gallons of that water will be released back into the water main to reach houses throughout the town.
Along with using the well as a source, the water tower will continue to be filled by the DANC line to create a blend. That water enters a valve station off Route 11 at Bush Road.
Mr. Doolittle did not respond to a call Tuesday seeking comment.

Could Michael St. Croix Be A Future Star?
Mike S.
Out of all the top prospects the Rangers have drafted over the last decade, perhaps the best prospect capable of becoming a potential top line forward in the NHL could be Michael St. Croix. Since being drafted by the New York Rangers in the 4th round of the 2011 NHL Draft; Michael St. Croix has emerged as a legitimate top prospect with natural scoring ability. His development has been so rampant that many in the hockey world believe that St. Croix has the potential to emerge as a top 6 or even a 1st line forward and scoring threat in the NHL. The Speedy center-man is currently lighting up the score sheet with the Edmonton Oil Kings in the WHL with 25 points (11 goals/14 assist) in the team's first 19 games. Averaging 1.32 points per game and a team leading 7 PPGs, St. Croix is getting noticed.
The biggest question surrounding Michael St. Croix is his size, or lack of it. At 5'11 and weighing 176 lbs, can St. Croix handle the physical side of the AHL and NHL, despite being ranked as the Rangers top rated center in their organization? Thus far, St. Croix has answered the bell in regards to durability and consistency as a professional as his career stats will suggest:
Year Team League Gms Goals Assists Total Pts
2008-09 Edmonton Oil Kings WHL 2 1 1 2

EPA New England Topics
Information on wetlands which in general terms are lands where saturation with water is the dominant factor determining the nature of soil development and the types of plant and animal communities living in the soil and on its surface (Cowardin, December 1979). Wetlands vary widely because of regional and local differences in soils, topography, climate, hydrology, water chemistry, vegetation, and other factors, including human disturbance.

Syncerror himself said that he reached ESL but they rejected the money offer. Why isn't he stepping up so quake is not dropped out of DH too?
Yep, as of this moment dh winter 2012 was the last one that will have quake, therefore there's only one stable event a year (quakecon) and even on that one prize money and organization is not provided by id software.
And that's just live tournaments, because the prizes that id has given in online cups are laughable and very sporadic.
DH dropped quake not because of viewers but because of not enough top players attending, which is directly related to prize money and more importantly the amount of events every year (there were few in 2012 because of the lack of ESL events. I think there were exactly 5 international lans, 3 with duel on them which are the usual majors) and not top players dropping out after signing up to the event. The decision had absolutely nothing to do with viewers, which btw is pretty good for dreamhack standards in games that aren't LoL, sc2 and dota2 (5k).
We need profile images. Now.

Reposition yourself as a content provider and strategist. Experiment with branded material, self-publishing and information distribution, and find new platforms for your writing.
Transcribing audio and video interviews can add power, insight and depth to a story.
