I have one friend in the Navy, and one civilian that I work with, who have heavy feet. When it comes to driving on the freeway, I've heard stories from them that simply reek of testosterone. (Except both are women.)
Although neither have quite done this: I clocked a guy on a crotch-rocket bike doing 189 mph. Just let him go. Since police departments began to get sued for chasing speeders, around 1995, there's a fine line.
You have to determine if you can catch him, if chasing him will cause an accident for him, for you, for the public. There's no way to catch anyone like that.
Update: True to form, one of the ladies mentioned above told me that she got her car up to 130 mph recently. And she discussed it as if it were an everyday occurrence. While she was talking, I thought: remind me to never accept a ride from 'er. I don't know whether my ticker could take bein' in the same vehicle. . .

Tool hails from Los Angeles, circa 1990. The band's sound can described as what would result if you put alternative metal, progressive rock and progressive metal in a blender. Whatever genre label you slap on Tool doesn't do them justice as their sound continues to evolve and morph with each Tool album. Since their inception, the band released several successful studio albums. They won several awards including Best Metal Performance for songs "Ænima" and "Schism" and Best Recording Package for album "10,000 Days." Tool has continued to progress in standing, gain critical praise and pick up a devoted fan base over the course of their career. A Tool ticket is a passport to creativity live in action!
From "Opiate" to "Undertow" through "Aenima", "Salival", "Lateralus" and "10,000 Days", Tool is constantly pushing the envelope. In 1993 "Undertow" was pulled from store shelves due to the graphic nature of its liner notes. Tool reacted by rereleasing the album with a white background and a barcode printed on the cover. The band's video for their follow-up single "Prison Sex" was banned on MTV. Despite the controversy, and maybe due to it, Tool was launched to the second stage at Lollapalooza that year. In 1996 "Stinkfist" the first single off of "Aenima" garnered yet another negative reaction from the media. Internal strife gave the band pause in 2000, and Keenan took the opportunity to play with A Perfect Circle. All the controversy surrounding Tool and their run-ins with the establishment consistently made Tool tickets a hot item. The 2006 Coachella Music Festival sold tickets in mass with the band on the bill.
Tool is not only renowned for their intense sound; they are also revered for their art-rock performances on stage. Their music rocks hard, but you don't actually experience Tool until you see Maynard James Keenan rocking out on stage live. The surge for Tool tickets is easily explained by the band's style-breaking performance fusing musical exploration, visual arts and a message of individual progression. Fan reviews applaud the visual performance, dark themes and raucous music of a LIVE Tool concert. One of the most enigmatic rock-art bands, Tool tickets translate into live artistic intensity. Get your Tool tickets now to experience the pure power of live art!

More than 1,300 Exelon employees donated 5,000 hours to 83 community service projects as part of company's award-winning volunteer program
CHICAGO (April 27, 2009) — As part of its commitment to environmental stewardship, Exelon dedicated nearly half of its employee-led volunteer work during National Volunteer Week to environmental projects. Overall, more than 1,300 employees across the Exelon family of companies participated in more than 80 community service projects. This campaign is part of Exelon's Energy for the Community volunteer engagement program, which has been named Corporate Volunteer Program of the Year two years in a row by VolunteerMatch, the Internet's largest and most popular volunteering network.
National Volunteer Week is an annual, nationwide observance of individuals' and organizations' contributions to their communities. This year's National Volunteer Week program empowers employee volunteers to design their own service projects and recruit colleagues. Employees once again chose to concentrate on a wide variety of environmental projects that support the company's Exelon 2020 low-carbon strategy and goals.
"I applaud our employees for continuing to improve the quality of life in the communities we serve," said Exelon Chairman and CEO John W. Rowe. "Exelon employees have organized and rallied behind projects that reflect Exelon's commitment to take a leadership role in the corporate response to global climate change."
Employees from every Exelon operating company participated in the annual celebration of volunteerism. This includes ComEd in Chicago and northern Illinois, PECO in Philadelphia and southeastern Pennsylvania, and Exelon Generation and Exelon Business Services Company employees in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic.
"The enthusiasm our employees have for volunteerism allowed Exelon to double its National Volunteer Week effort this year," said Steve Solomon, Exelon's director of corporate relations. "Our employee volunteer program as a whole has grown by more than 30 percent over the last year, which is a testament to the company's culture and its dedication to the community, particularly in an economic climate when our communities can use our help the most."
Although National Volunteer Week officially runs from April 19-25, Exelon's celebration this year kicked off early with environmental projects on April 18 and will extend through May 9 with a Chicago River cleanup project. Earth Day events took place on April 22. The 36 green projects staffed by Exelon volunteers included:
Midwest projects:
Mid-Atlantic projects:
Exelon, a Chicago-based company, is one of the nation's largest utilities and the largest owner/operator of nuclear plants. Its Exelon 2020 strategy to address climate change set a goal of reducing, displacing or offsetting more than 15 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions per year by 2020. This is more than the company's annual carbon footprint. Exelon recently announced that as of the end of 2008, it had reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by 35 percent from 2001 levels, far surpassing its voluntary 8 percent reduction goal under the U.S. EPA Climate Leaders program.
Beyond environmental causes, Exelon's corporate relations programs also focus on education, arts and culture, neighborhood development and diversity.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with approximately $19 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 485,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

POTSDAM The St. Lawrence County Arts Council is in the market for a new executive director.
Director Rebekah L. Wilkins-Pepiton announced Friday she soon will be leaving the north country to move to Washington state.
Ms. Wilkins-Pepiton replaced Hilary M. Oak as director in January 2013. She said she is leaving the position to be closer to friends and family living in the Northwest.
She spent years working as an art teacher in Colorado before joining the Peace Corps, serving in China and eventually moving to the north country.
In a lot of ways it feels like we are going home, she said.
Ms. Wilkins-Pepiton will be moving with her husband, Charles M. Pepiton, a visiting assistant professor at St. Lawrence University, Canton.
The last year has been filled with changes for the Arts Council. In September, the council closed its Market Street offices, gift shop and gallery to save money. The offices were moved to old Snell Hall downtown and the gallery to the town hall at 18 Elm St. The gift shop was closed entirely.
The council also partnered with the North Country Childrens Museum to create the Regional Arts and Interactive Learning project. If all goes according to plan, this eventually will lead to the creation of an art gallery and more artist studio spaces in old Snell Hall.
I feel really good about what weve been able to accomplish in bringing the organization onto firm financial footing and focusing on our mission of building community partnerships, Ms. Wilkins-Pepiton said.
The board of directors has begun accepting applications for a new director.
The ideal candidate has a background in arts management, but it is even more important that the next director be adept at navigating the constantly changing world of state arts grants, which make up a large portion of the councils funding, according to board of directors President Jason Hubbard.
The experience in the arts is a bonus for us, he said.
The Arts Council is a different organization than it was a year ago, he said. While once much of the directors job was focused largely on managing the councils commercial efforts in the gift shop, it is more dedicated than ever to providing local arts education and support for north country artists.
The job has changed completely from when Rebekah started the position, he said.
The next director will be expected to oversee more classes and events for the council, while helping to manage the growth of the Regional Arts and Interactive Learning project.
Rebekah was an incredible asset to the Arts Council, and shes definitely going to be very hard to replace, but shes done a wonderful job of getting us to a good point, Mr. Hubbard said.
The council is concentrating most of its advertising for the position locally, but the board will consider applicants no matter where they are from, Mr. Hubbard said.
The board of directors will accept applications for Ms. Wilkins-Pepitons successor until April 15. Whoever is chosen likely will begin work May 15.

I mean after all, they get a % of on posting the ad, then if you ad pictures that cost more, plus once you sell they get some more. By the time your done the bidder that won at $50 you'll probably see about $35-$40 after e-bay expenses.

FREMONT, Calif., March 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Hurricane Electric, a leading Internet Backbone and Colocation Provider, announced today the grand opening of its new colocation facility in Silicon Valley. The new 208,000 square foot facility complements three other colocation facilities Hurricane Electric operates in San Jose, CA, Fremont, CA and New York, NY.
Hurricane Electric's new building, located at 48233 Warm Springs Blvd. Fremont, CA, is less than two miles from its existing Fremont Colocation Facility, and at 208,000 square feet, it is more than four times its size.
"This is an exciting time of growth for Hurricane Electric. Our customers have eagerly anticipated the opening of this new facility. Its size alone will allow us to serve our customers growing demand for colocation space and managed data housing well into the future. And, with our proximity to so many major networks, we anticipate becoming a significant global epicenter of Internet traffic," said Mike Leber, president of Hurricane Electric.
The new colocation facility will have every amenity a customer could desire including a 24/7 knowledgeable onsite staff, HVAC environmental systems with upflow air conditioning units, conditioned uninterruptible power and back-up generators to prevent energy surges or loss of power, a high-tech security system with digital video surveillance custom designed to monitor every entrance, exit, hallway, and individual cabinet in the colocation facility, and a high-security card key system that monitors and limits access to certain areas in the colocation facility.
48233 Warm Springs was also designed with individually locking suites, giving Hurricane Electric customers the ability to choose between colocation space in shared and private suites. Industry standard 19-inch rack mountable cabinets with perforated doors panels, combination-locking doors, and high- powered fans are located in each suite.
In addition, Hurricane Electric's new facility can support high-density applications such as blade servers.
New domestic and international clients now have the choice to colocate their equipment in the original San Jose facility, the existing Fremont facility, the New York facility, or the new Fremont facility. For more information on 48233 Warm Springs, email [email protected] or call 510.580.4190.

This tendency, what some call the "newest shiny object syndrome," is understandable given that virtually all of us are heavily engaged in technology. But it is also mistaken. Without concrete business cases driving its deployment, IoT, like many other technologies before it, will fade into obscurity.

Electric power utilities face relentless pressure on their financial performance, and reducing distribution grid losses is one of the last untapped opportunities to meet their business goals. Combining IoT-enabled sensors and cloud-based data analytics, utilities now are able to find, quantify and reduce losses faster – and with a smaller IT footprint. Solutions exist using Internet-enabled sensors deployed temporarily at strategic locations within the distribution grid to measure actual line loads.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing rapidly by extending current technologies, products and networks. By 2020, Cisco estimates there will be 50 billion connected devices. Gartner has forecast revenues of over $300 billion, just to IoT suppliers. Now is the time to figure out how you'll make money – not just create innovative products. With hundreds of new products and companies jumping into the IoT fray every month, there's no shortage of innovation. Despite this, McKinsey/VisionMobile data shows "less than 10 percent of IoT developers are making enough to support a reasonably sized team....

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

The IoT market is on track to hit $7.1 trillion in 2020. The reality is that only a handful of companies are ready for this massive demand. There are a lot of barriers, paint points, traps, and hidden roadblocks. How can we deal with these issues and challenges? The paradigm has changed. Old-style ad-hoc trial-and-error ways will certainly lead you to the dead end. What is mandatory is an overarching and adaptive approach to effectively handle the rapid changes and exponential growth.

Developing software for the Internet of Things (IoT) comes with its own set of challenges. Security, privacy, and unified standards are a few key issues. In addition, each IoT product is comprised of at least three separate application components: the software embedded in the device, the backend big-data service, and the mobile application for the end user's controls. Each component is developed by a different team, using different technologies and practices, and deployed to a different stack/target - this makes the integration of these separate pipelines and the coordination of software upd...

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

CANTON Village police are investigating nude images found near the edge of Canton Central School property near Woods Drive, interim Chief Victor N. Rycroft said Wednesday.
We have a good lead, Mr. Rycroft said.
The photos do not appear to be local people, he said. He declined to describe them in detail, but said they appeared to be commercially produced images.
A couple of photos were scattered on the ground and turned over to police by adults, Mr. Rycroft said.
A message left for Canton Superintendent William A. Gregory was not immediately returned Wednesday afternoon.

Try OpenBSD!
I want a UNIX. I want a simple, mostly CLI system to use for writing stuff with LaTeX, surfing the web, doing e-mail and usenet, and playing with Python.
And, if at all possible, with a Fortran dev ability.
No bloat. No BS.
What should I do?
Try OpenBSD!
SLACK. Honestly they will all do what you want. You can install as much or as little as you want in both Slack and Debian, never used *BSD but I'd assume its the same. And as far as I know Slack has got Fortran support if you want it.
Slack or Debian!
I would say slack or openbsd
[me=Lovechild]sounds like a scratched record[/me]
Also FreeBSD 5.0 looks nice - I couldn't get GNOME2.2.1 installed on it but that's the danger of running -current I think.
[quote author=Ashcrow link=board=7;threadid=6856;start=0#64008 date=1050713378]
Try OpenBSD!
Just spent some time looking over the website, and my, does OpenBSD look good. Maybe just the thing I am looking for. I'll have to spend some more time reading the man pages and other docs in the site.
So, Ashcrow, what specifically do you like about OpenBSD?
On my tower system, I have Slackware 8.0, Debian 3.0 and Freebsd 4.7 installed and they all are great distros.
[quote author=GhostDawg link=board=7;threadid=6856;start=0#64319 date=1051407343]
... Freebsd 4.7 ... all are great distros.
FreeBSD is not a GNU/Linux distribution. Also BSD is probably as close as you will get to UN*X, without plunking down some major dough.
Ghost D. your sentence included two GNU/Linux distros, which lead me to believe that you were lumping in FreeBSD as one too. While most of the users here might know the difference, I pointed that out for the unintiated. It was not meant as a flame I appologize if you took it as such.

The city of Watertown has received about 70 complaints about unmowed grass so far this year.
But most property owners have complied when the citys code enforcement office ordered them to mow the unkempt properties or the Department of Public Works would do it and then charge them. The city ordinance has a 10-inch maximum limit for grass and weeds.
Once they are notified, property owners are given five days to clean up their yards.
Christine A. Shipley, the citys code enforcement aide, said she is pleased that most properties were cleaned up before DPW crews had to do the work.
It hasnt been that bad, she said.
As of Tuesday, DPW workers had mowed 16 properties, Public Works Superintendent Eugene P. Hayes said.
Violators are fined $150 by code enforcement. The fine covers paperwork and other tasks associated with taking resident complaints and notifying property owners.
In addition, the property owners are charged by the DPW for mowing. How much depends on the number of workers, hours and equipment needed for the job. The work might include removing old tires or raking the grass afterward, Mr. Hayes said.
The city has charged an average of $183.12 for the mowing jobs.
Those jobs can be as small as a residential yard or as large as the site of the former Mercy nursing home at 218 Stone St. For all but one property, it took an hour to get the lawn mowed.
The city charged one owner as little as $116.48 for a small yard on Superior Street; it charged $728.58 for the Mercy property.
Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham has said he would like the $728.58 bill to be waived since COR Development, Syracuse, probably will end up having to pay, rather than MGNH Inc., the Lake Katrine owner that is about to lose the property through foreclosure.
COR plans to acquire the property, tear down the buildings on it and replace them mostly with housing.
In 1990, the city had to make changes to the ordinance after a City Court judge ruled in favor of Martin A. Moot, who contended it was his constitutional right not to mow his lawn at 126 Ward St. Mr. Moot battled the city over the condition of his property several times over the years before his death in 2011.

In an ironic but predictable development that has establishment analysts scratching their heads and human-rights organizations up in arms, brutal Communist dictator Raul Castro of Cuba just assumed the rotating presidency of a regional "integration" body that touts itself as being in favor of "democracy." Upon assuming his new role, the Marxist tyrant, who leads one of the most oppressive regimes in the world and will now be charged with running the supranational CELAC bloc, celebrated what he called "a common vision for the Latin American and Caribbean homeland."
The controversial regional entity, heavily backed by the Communist Party tyrants ruling over mainland China and other subversive forces, is known officially as the "Community of Latin American and Caribbean States." It brings together 33 national governments and dictatorships in the Western hemisphere under the pretext of advancing "integration," "human rights," and more — the United States and Canada, however, were not invited to participate.
Socialist strongmen responsible for the recently created alliance say it is meant to serve as a sort of counter-balance to U.S. influence in the region. In truth, however, like other similar blocs in the region, it is aimed at advancing the march of tyranny and socialism throughout Latin America and the Caribbean, according to analysts and anti-communist leaders.
Raul's brother Fidel, who originally foisted authoritarian communist rule on the people of Cuba, played a key role in the now-obvious spread of socialism and communism across Latin America. Working with former Brazilian President Luiz Inacio "Lula" da Silva, the Sandinistas, Marxist terror groups such as the FARC in Colombia, and others, Castro helped found the Foro de São Paulo (São Paulo Forum, or FSP), a coalition of communist and socialist forces that now dominates Latin American politics and controls most national governments in the region.

This jewelry cleaner uses pressurized steam--the same cleaning method used by professional jewelers--to instantly restore the original luster to diamonds, gemstones, and precious metals without scrubbing or harsh chemicals. The device uses ordinary tap water and produces 40 psi of steam to remove dirt, dust, and grime from rings, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. The steam cleans small crevices in ring settings and chain links that ordinary cleaning methods cannot reach. It can be set up next to a sink so that the spout is over the basin, and it turns on with the touch of a button and begins to produce steam in two minutes. Includes a pair of tweezers for holding jewelry under the spout and a funnel and cup for filling the 12 1/2-oz. reservoir. Plugs into AC. 11" H x 6" W x 11 1/2" D. (4 1/4 lbs.)

Must have for the serious jewelry owner

Perfect jewelry cleaner
By Barbie
from Benton Township
I use this cleaner about twice a month and clean all my jewelry. I clean my gold bracelets, rings and watches and they come out perfect. In fact, our jeweler uses one! It's a dash annoying that I have to wait for the steam to heat up again, as I have quite a bit of jewelry. I usually take that time to make sure everything I have cleaned is dry. I have owned this for five years and never had a problem. I have gotten many remarks on how clean my diamonds and gold are! I even clean my Chamilia and Pandora bracelets and necklaces. First I soak them in baby shampoo to remove the grease. They come out like new! I would recommend this to everyone. I do not find this to be too bulky and keep it in the corner of my vanity. Yes, you can see how big it is, but it does a big job. I guess it depends on how much jewelry you have!

Did not work as expected
By Nik
from Toronto, ONTARIO
Bought it to clean my jewelry, gems, earrings, rings, etc. Was easy to set up and start up but then it was very disappointing. Did not clean it at all, ring looked exactly the same after I put it under the steamer for a good 15-20 seconds, even longer. Would have been perfect if it worked.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Smokers who thought they were getting a sweet deal from ObamaCare may want to think twice before lighting up again. According to the Associated Press, one of the many well-concealed provisions of the bill that then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Congress had to pass "so that you can find out what's in it" could make health insurance cost up to 50 percent more for Americans with cigarette habits — especially longstanding ones.
The law, known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, was — as its name implies — ostensibly designed to make health insurance affordable to Americans. It prohibits insurers from turning down or charging more to individuals with pre-existing conditions and even certain conditions (such as obesity) that increase the risk of health problems.
However, the one condition that the law does not protect from high insurance rates is nicotine addiction — despite the fact that smoking is associated with a number of serious health problems including heart disease and lung cancer. In fact, it specifically permits insurers to charge higher rates to older smokers than to nonsmokers or even younger smokers. Under the law, older adults in general may be charged up to triple what younger ones are charged (which could end up harming the young by hiking their rates). Smokers may, in addition, be charged up to 50 percent more than nonsmokers for their coverage, but younger smokers may be hit with a lesser penalty than older ones. Plus, the subsidies the government provides to offset the cost of insurance purchased on the individual market cannot be applied to the smoking penalty.
Just how expensive could insurance for older smokers become under ObamaCare? The AP ran the numbers:
Take a hypothetical 60-year-old smoker making $35,000 a year. Estimated premiums for coverage in the new private health insurance markets under Obama's law would total $10,172. That person would be eligible for a tax credit that brings the cost down to $3,325.

This past week we have re-designed the dashboard, providing access to relevant account information for each of your account users. Specifically, you can search for other users registered within your account and join their meeting room, or join one of the pre-defined account meeting rooms.
Joining meeting rooms from the dashboard
Meeting rooms are shared throughout your account. They're a an easy way to create a dedicated meeting space, which could be used by a department or regular occurring meeting. Once meeting rooms have been created, all users will see these displayed on their dashboard.
Always listed at the very top, is the most important meeting room, which is the users personal meeting room.
Using search to join meetings
From the dashboard, you can search for any user listed under your account to join their meeting room. After entering a name, the "join room", option will activate. This will enter you directly into the users personal meeting room.
Using the search is another means to make this as seamless as possible for all users. The end goal is to get you into the meeting with minimal delay. A majority of meetings are impromptu happening throughout the day, hence, it should be quick and painless to start that meeting, especially being over video conference.
Your next meeting...
Another update we have made for user dashboards, is displaying (at the top of screen), your next upcoming meeting. This is based on any "upcoming meetings" that you have listed in your account. Your lastest upcoming meeting will be displayed with an option for you to join meeting.
For active users scheduling several meetings throughout the week, they can rely on their personal dashboard to point them in the right direction for their next meeting. The next meeting will only display if their is a scheduled upcoming meeting under their account.

what did you choose under database type when you ran install.php ?
Has anyone seen this error before?
The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose.
I am trying to install phpBB on a RH 8.0 box with mysql-3.23.52-3. I Googled a long time but came up with no answers, just people with the same prob as me. Any help would be great. Thanks.
what did you choose under database type when you ran install.php ?
MySql 3.x is what I chose. I tried all the options and they all give me the same error. Maybe there is an error somewhere else?
did you try recompiling mysql?
is the mysql daemon running?
(check with ps -aux | grep mysql)
Yeah I can add a new database from a command line and everything. I started and stopped mysql, httpd, and even rebooted the whole server last night. Still get the same error. I don't know woo much about PHP and it's not giving me a log. Anything else I should be looking for?
I've had it before...but I don't remember what was it.....Could it be that you don't have mysql-php.rpm (or php-mysql) ? If you don't then this myst be a case.....
Is your phpBB config.php setup properly? ie., if MySQL is located on the same server as phpBB use
$dbhost = "localhost";. Also make sure you are using the correct $dbuname, $dbpass and $dbname.
elovkoff your the man!! That's all it was, php-mysql.rpm. That is pretty sucky that the mysql site said nothing of it. Thanks again.

The Price River Water Improvement District Board voted to hire WaterWorks Engineers to design and oversee work on the district's proposed $7 million construction projects.
The engineering fee was agreed not to exceed $1.64 million.
In another vote, the board accepted the bid of Lewis Young Robertson & Birmingham, Inc., to perform an impact fee and rate structure analysis. The Salt Lake firm specializes in municipal financial consulting. This is not to exceed $21,999.99.
Both contracts anticipate the approval of all or part of the planned improvements by the Permanent Community Impact Board.
PRWID is requesting half the amount in grants and the other half in long-term, low-interest loans
For its share, PRWID will put up $100,000 for the water proposal and $50,000 for waste water treatment.
That improvements include $5 million for the culinary water plant at Castle Gate and $2 million for the sewage plant at Wellington. Pipe extensions and improvements for water and sewer systems are included in the tab.
Environmental requirements make up the most expensive single investment at the Castle Gate plant. PRWID has to inject a lot of chlorine into the water leaving the plant so that there will be some chlorine remaining in the pipes at the far end of the system. While chlorine kills bacteria, it also combines with the organic material left over to form undesirable byproducts.
The options for fixing this run in the $2.5 million range, whether it be a system for removing the organics at the plant or using ozone to cut the amount of chlorine needed.
The water plant also needs various upgrades to bring it up to its intended capacity of 6 million gallons a day. It now runs at 4 million because there wasn't enough money 30 years ago to put in all that was necessary. While the flow is adequate most of the time, there is no extra capacity to keep the water flowing out if there are problems such as turbidity during runoff or heavy rains.
The most expensive items at the sewer treatment plant are mainly replacements of equipment and structures that are wearing out.

EU needs fixed target for renewables in the energy mix by 2030, parliament says
May 22, 2013 | Michael Ravenscroft
Members of the European Parliament have agreed in a nonlegislative resolution that the European Union needs a fixed target for the share of renewables in the overall energy mix by 2030. The need for a better integrated system at EU level to promote renewable energy, the possibility of adopting a mandatory target for 2030, and the desirability of incentives to invest are highlighted in the resolution. "This resolution is a starting point for future debates. Renewable energy support needs to be seen from an EU perspective. We need to talk about how we are...

Action Pack
Scream & Shout: the Chart-Topping Sing-Along
|The Action Pack
|Taylor Swift, Macklemore, Calvin Harris, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Daft Punk
|Run Time
SCREAM & SHOUT: THE CHART-TOPPING SING-ALONG is the newest party from the Action Pack that's set to transform your local Alamo Drafthouse from the best movie theater in town to the best dance club you've ever been to. As always, we'll have subtitled music videos and props galore to get you out of your seat and dancing around the theater, and this time we'll be celebrating all of the best new pop music from the likes of Macklemore, Taylor Swift, P!nk, Justin Timberlake, and more.
Because remember 10-20 years ago, when being a cool kid meant knowing about music that other people weren't hip enough to understand? Those were the days of record stores, and record store clerks, and HIGH FIDELITY, and discovering Karate or Death Cab for Cutie before everyone else knew about them made you super awesome.
Well guess what? Those days are over.
Thanks to Pitchfork and Spotify and Rdio and every other blog out there, every single person on the planet knows about all the cool music from some hot new band in Brooklyn at the exact same time, and just saying that you like Alpine because you heard them on Left As Rain doesn't make you a badass.
Today, we live in a post-hipster music world, as Taylor Swift is fully aware of. When she drops in the seemingly self-deprecating "Who is Taylor Swift anyway?" line into the background of "22," she's actually saying, "Oh, you think you're too cool for me, 'hipster'? Guess what, no one is too cool for pop music anymore."
And she's right. Today if you want to be super cool, you have to love pop music AND early Paul Williams, as Daft Punk demonstrated when they released the coolest album of 2013 (so far). Pretending like you're too cool for "Get Lucky" just makes you sound like a grandpa, and saying that you can't get into Macklemore because he's too white to rap just makes you a lame racist who hates fun.
The point being: the extremely awesome pop music of today that we're celebrating in SCREAM & SHOUT: THE CHART-TOPPING SING-ALONG is not a guilty pleasure. It's a super cool pleasure, and you don't have to feel guilty about being awesome anymore! Anyone who tells you differently is just a grump, and you should probably drag them along with you to the show so that they can learn the error of their ways as we sing and dance along with Calvin Harris, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Selena Gomez, Will.i.am and Britney, bitch, and all of the other chart toppers of 2013.

Reporter gets lost in the woods - on purpose
EAST OF PLEASANT HILL, Ore. - It's the type of story you've heard countless times: hikers and travelers, stuck in the snow, veering off the trail, sometimes losing their lives.
These stories remind us just how easy it is to become lost - and never found. So we headed into the Oregon wilderness, with the help of Lane County Search and Rescue, to learn survival tips and find out what it's really like to be cold, disoriented and all alone.
It's the first time search and rescue has ever done an experiment with the media like this before. We've covered many of these cases, so we thought the best way to find out more about wilderness survival was to try it out ourselves.
I got lost on purpose with the help of search and rescue personnel. The rescuers were always within earshot in case anything happened, so it was a safe experiment - and a scenic one.
"It's gorgeous here," said John Miller, search coordinator for Lane County Search and Rescue.
It certainly was a gorgeous day for a hike with Miller and his crew, but was I prepared? I dumped out my backpack to show Miller everything I would typically carry on a short hike - a warm hat, a hooded waterproof jacket, some water, a little food and a flashlight.
"Those are some good things," Miller told me.
But he added some other essentials to my backpack - like a fire starter kit, a knife, garbage bags, a flagging kit and a whistle. With the pack fully loaded, Miller gave me advice on how long I could survive.
"You can last four seconds without your brain so you have to take care of that right up front," he told me. "Then there's four minutes without oxygen. Next is four hours without warmth, so we put a lot of focus on warmth. Then we can go four days without water and four weeks without food."
With that advice, we head up the trail and at the top, Miller had a surprise for me - he put a blindfold over my eyes.
Blindfolded, he led me off trail, in a circle, down the road and into the woods. There he spun me around and took off the blindfold. I was totally disoriented, even though we were not far from the trail.
Most lost hikers wouldn't get this help, but Miller taught me about finding the perfect spot to set up camp.
"Trees tend to hold the heat down rather than being in the open where it's colder," he said.
He showed me how to build a shelter.
"Make it about three feet high so you can get in and out of it," he demonstrated with a miniature model of a shelter.
I took the suggestions and looked for a spot to set up.
"You've only got minutes of daylight left," Miller's son, Dan, warned me.
Finally, I found the perfect spot to set up.
"Yep, this is home," I said.
I got to work building a shelter out of tree branches and a soft bed of ferns. With the shelter done, I built a fire. It took three tries until the fire finally got going.
Then the experimenters put my survival skills to the test. Miller and crew and photographer Alan Dale left, leaving me alone in the woods.
Armed with a handheld camera and essential survival items, I got to work, collecting firewood for the long haul - since I didn't know when I would be rescued.
I spoke into the handheld camera - "So it's starting to get a little dark out here already, and I'm starting to get a little nervous because this fire is taking a lot more work than I thought it was going to be." When the fire is stable, I do some flagging to let searchers know where I am located. Night falls and the fire dies. I try to get it started in the dark.
"I'm freezing, it's cold out here right now and my fire is out so that's dropped the temperature here a lot," I told the camera. "So now I'm hunkering down in my shelter until I get rescued."
I didn't know when I would be rescued, or even what time it was because earlier Miller took away my watch. "It's just another interesting element to your evening," Miller explained at the time.
So I passed the time in my shelter. "I can stretch my legs all the way out, but I only have about two feet of space above me," I told the camera.
It wasn't long before I started hearing and seeing animals. I tried to use Miller's advice to keep calm, but my mind kept racing. It didn't help that I had no heat.
"All I can think about is how cold it is out here. It's cold and dark, my fire's out completely right now. It's cold and it is scary and lonely," I told the camera.
Up the road, Miller decided four hours alone in the woods was enough.
Inside my shelter, I heard whistles in the distance and people calling my name. I began to blow my whistle back. The flashlights were a glimmer of hope and finally the crew arrived to take me home.
"Yeah! Thank goodness you found me, I'm freezing," I told them.
The lessons I learned - make sure you leave an itinerary with someone, pack the essentials like a whistle (no matter how short your hike is) and don't panic when you're out there.

Submission PlayStation Vita hacked, homebrew on the way->
dotarray writes: Just nine months after launch, and gamers claim to have hacked the PlayStation Vita, meaning homebrew games and apps might not be so far away. Back in April, the Vita Half-Byte Loader meant that Sony's latest handheld was capable of playing unsigned code within the built-in PSP emulator. Now though, an affiliated developer claims he's figured out how to get unsigned Vita code running as well.

It may smell funky but the water's OK to drink.
That's the word from the corner office, which released a statement this afternoon after a number of residents called in to complain about the change in taste and an accompanying odor.
"Please know that our water is tested daily at the water treatment plant and that our water supply is certainly safe to drink," said Mayor Richard Alcombright. "With this very long stretch of hot weather, algae in the reservoirs give off nontoxic chemicals that can cause an earthy-musty taste and smell."
Alcombright said the Water Department and treatmant plant employees have begun treating the reservoirs with copper sulfate to kill the algae.
"The chemical needs to be added in small doses over a period of time," he said. "Additionally, the treatment plant has taken other steps in the filtration process to help reduce taste and odor issues.
"Finally, the city crews continue the system flushing program (started last month) which will help to refresh the supply in both low- and high-service areas. It has been reported by the treatment plant that at their site, the taste and odor issues have been resolved and with continued use and flushing, there should be citywide improvement over the next couple of days."
So despite the earthy aroma coming from your faucet, the water is safe to drink. "We should be back to normal over the next several days," said Alcombright.
