The Lucky One
U.S. Marine Sergeant Logan Thibault returns from his third tour of duty in Iraq, with the one thing he credits with keeping him alive-a photograph he found of a woman he doesn't even know. Learning her name is Beth (Taylor Schilling) and where she lives, he shows up at her door, and ends up taking a job at her family-run local kennel. Despite her initial mistrust and the complications in her life, a romance develops between them, giving Logan hope that Beth could be much more than his good luck charm.

Princess Diaries: Looking for Answers in the 1940 US Census
Princess Usha Holkar, The Maharani of Indore India, was one of my mother's playmates during the years that the Princess lived in Santa Ana, California with her father, the Maharajah of Indore and his second wife, American Marguerite Lawler.
Mom remembered playing with the Princess's fabulous toys and dolls in a corner playroom under the watchful eye of her governess and birthday party snapshots show the girls together in party dresses. But, memories are a tricky thing, and it's been hard to pin down dates and places. I am looking for answers with the release of the 1940 U.S. Census to help figure out who lived where, and when.
"Party Picture, 1912 N. Spurgeon, Santa Ana, Ca, Front Row L-R Patty Bright,
Kathy Bright, Susie [Brown], Usha, Fran in back sticking out tongue"
This birthday photo shows Mom and her sister Frances with Princess Usha and three other little girls. In recent years, Mom remembered the event as her own birthday party, although when assembling her photo album in the 1940's she noted it as "Frances Party." Both sisters had January birthdays, and the address on the back of the photo adds to the confusion. I wrote more about this puzzle in Wordless Wednesday: Dating a Photo of Princess Usha at the Brown Girls' Party. The 1940 U.S. Census may hold a clue to the mystery.
The Brown Family moved frequently, the census should help pinpoint where they were living on the census date and we can work back from there to January, 1940.

|Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Robert De Niro
|Run Time
|Age Policy
18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.
|More Info
Packed with surprises, not the least being that it's a smashing work. It's vulgar, violent, funny and sometimes breathtakingly beautiful. -Vincent Canby, The New York Times
De Palma's thrilling, historical crime epic shown in seventy larger than life millimeters!
Federal Agent Eliot Ness, played by a thin, wiry Kevin Costner, is on a mission to bust the most notorious gangster of our modern era, bootlegger Al Capone (Robert De Niro).
The year is 1930. The place is Chicago. The good intentions meant by the Volstead Act pave a dubious road to hell: one that includes competitive organized crime, secret saloons known as speakeasies, and corruption that goes from the State St. gutter trash to the very top.
This windy city pastel noir runs dark with a tincture of blood and booze, featuring an Oscar-winning performance by Sean Connery as Irish-American officer Jim Malone and a memorable homage in a striking end sequence to Russian filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein's BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN (1925).
Paired with custom Prohibition-era cocktails by our Beverage Director, Bill Norris, THE UNTOUCHABLES on 70mm is a must-see! (Sam Prime)

Effects of Masseter Manual Therapy on Temporomandibular Dysfunction

- How to Read a Study Record
Muscles and myofascial dysfunction are more often the mechanism and source of pain in oral fascial disorders (OFD) than the TMJ. Masticatory muscles in patients with TMJ alterations are more hypertonic, less efficient and more prone to fatigue compared to age and sex matched controls. It is our opinion that Active Release Technique can be a reliable assessment and treatment tool in the resolution in cervical-cranio mandibular disorders. Our goal is to improve masticatory function through treatment of trigger points in the masseter.

Apparently the Central Intelligence Agency is looking for a new style of agent. According to a National Public Radio report, as "part of the CIA's efforts to diversify its workforce, the spy agency is reaching out to a group that once was unable to get security clearance — lesbians and gay men."
In late November the CIA partnered with Florida's Miami-Dade Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce for an event to network with homosexuals who may be interested in working for the agency. "This is the first time we've done a networking event of this type with any of the gay and lesbian chamber of commerces in the United States," said Michael Barber, the CIA's LGBT Community Outreach and Liaison program manager. Barber, who made it clear that he is "straight," emphasized that his agency is not as picky as it once was about the sexual orientation of its recruits, and now welcomes lesbian, gay, bisexual, and even transgender (LGBT) individuals for service in the spy agency.
"For many years, the CIA and other federal agencies routinely denied security clearances to gay men and women," reported NPR, "until President Clinton signed an executive order ending the practice in 1995. Now, Barber says, the CIA even has a program for gay couples. 'We actually have LGBT employees serving overseas with their partners,' Barber said to the few dozen gathered at the networking event. 'So you can do it.'"
During the 1950s and '60s, hundreds of homosexuals were purged from the CIA ranks — for obvious security reasons. But as long ago as the late 1980s a select few were allowed to stay on, pioneering the way for today's wide-open compromise. Tracey Ballard, a CIA technical intelligence officer who spoke at the Miami-Dade LGBT recruiting event, recalled how she "came out" to her superiors in 1989, "knowing that the admission could cost her security clearance and her job," reported NPR.

Mets sign LHP Pedro Feliciano to minors deal
The Mets announced they have signed LHP Pedro Feliciano to a Minor League contract with an invite to Major League Spring Training.
Feliciano, 36, led the majors in appearances from 2008-2010, making 266 appearances, all with the Mets.
Feliciano has held lefties to a .214 opposing average in his career and is 22-19 with a 3.31 ERA in 459 appearances over eight big league seasons. He has not pitched in the Major Leagues since he left the Mets after the 2010 season after battling shoulder problems.
Feliciano posted a 1.23 ERA in seven relief appearances in the Puerto Rican Winter League this season.
Michael Baron, ContributorFeliciano was awesome for the Mets in his first go around with them. But he racked up a lot of appearances during his tenure here, especially in his last three years. The Mets reportedly felt he was worn out after his contract expired, and Yankees GM Brian Cashman accused the Mets of "abusing" Feliciano, which he claimed ultimately led to his shoulder problems. Whatever the case may be, I have to wonder how much Feliciano has left in the tank now. This is still a low-risk move – if he's healthy and durable, he could be a very valuable left-handed presence in the bullpen. But there's no way to know how long Feliciano might last, should he make the team. The Mets would certainly have to use him more delicately than they did in his first stint with the club.

Built 1883, another library that expanded.I love the older section of the library, the beautiful stained glass and oak everywhere. You can see how beautiful it is. The only problem with taking pictures in a library is, I have to rely on their lighting, sometime there is too much (as with the sun through the windows), and sometimes not enough.

I've been dreaming of fantastic worlds since I was young. Deeply inspired by the natural world and influenced by artists such as Beksinski, Moebius, and Brom. In ink and oils I paint what I see in my mind and I try to persuade the viewer to wonder what's up and what's next. I enjoy morphing organic forms together in my imagery, while maintaining a harmonious and flowing composition in the process. My subjects exist comfortably in their world, sometimes dark but not malicious, living mundanely in their fantastical universe, just as we often do in ours.

The Mets have invited five non-roster minor leaguers to spring training: RHP's Rafael Montero and Cory Mazzoni, C Juan Centeno, INF Josh Satin and OF Matt den Dekker to Major League Spring Training.
None are likely to make the team's 25-man roster out of camp. None.
Position Players
Josh Satin, who turned 28 in December, has found a role in the last two years as a AAA utility guy hitting a combined .294/.389/.430 for the Buffalo Bisons in 169 games. He's played first, second and third for the Bisons. In very limited big league time, he's hit .192/.250/.231 in 28 plate appearances, all but one of which came in 2011. He was removed from the Mets' 40-man roster, and no other team claimed him.
Matt den Dekker, who turned 25 last August, had two different minor league seasons in 2012: a really good first half in AA Binghamton and a dreadful second half in AAA Buffalo. In 58 games with the B-Mets, he hit .340/.397/.563. His offensive production cratered to .220/.256/.373 with 90 strikeouts in 77 games in AAA. Over the two levels, he totalled 31 doubles and 17 homers. However, he struck out in 28.4% of his plate appearances in AAA. Looking over past seasons in the International League, I did not see a single productive big leaguer, who struck out as much as den Dekker >28%, over as plate appearances >300, for as long as Fangraphs has the data. John Mayberry comes closest, with a 26.3% in AAA in 2009. After a productive (2.5 fWAR) 2011, Mayberry was close to a replacement level player in 2012. That's den Dekker's future. His ability to play centerfield will get him to the big leagues, but his inability to make contact will hold him to just a shade above replacement level at best.
Centeno, who turned 23 in November 2012, has worked his way up the system as a backup catcher originally drafted in the 32nd round in 2007 out of Puerto Rico. He had never started more than half of his team's games until playing in a career-high 79 games in 2012. He's short (listed at 5'9″), and used to be pudgy (currently listed at 172 lbs). His approach at the plate is contact oriented – he will look to flare the ball the other way on anything away. He has no power, but he controls the strike zone well enough – 43 K against 23 walks in 79 games in AA in 2012. The invite is a nice reward for a .285/.337/.342 performance in AA in 2012 when he threw out 41% of opposing basestealers. Major League pitchers will eat him up, but his ability to squat behind the plate will get him a little service time as a third catcher. The other point here is that early in spring training, teams need extra catchers around camp to catch all of those pitchers' bullpens.
Rafael Montero, who turned 22 in November, put up great numbers in a-ball in Savannah (2.52 ERA and a 6.75 K/BB ratio in 12 starts) and in advanced-A St. Lucie (2.13 ERA, 5.09 K/BB ratio in 8 starts). At the beginning of the 2012 season, he mostly relied on spotting his fastball and his changeup. As the year went on, he threw his slider more and more. His fastball is average to a tick above, sitting 91-92 mph, with a little bit of 93 when he's really reaching back. It's plenty to pitch in the big leagues, but he's not going to blow away big league hitters. He has solid arm speed on his changeup with a little bit of sink. At 6'0, 170 lbs, he is small for a major league starting pitcher. Lack of size and a dominant fastball limit his projection, but he could slot in as a mid-back end starter based on his command and feel. He should start 2013 in double-A with a realistic chance at cracking the MLB rotation in 2014.
Cory Mazzoni is an interesting name and pitcher, but my projection on him has changed in the last year, after giving him the #10 ranking in the system at this time last year. By stuff and numbers, he now looks like a bullpen piece. The Mets' 2nd round pick in 2011, and third pick behind Brandon Nimmo and Michael Fulmer, Mazzoni pitched his way out of advanced-A and to double-A in 2012. Mazzoni put up a 3.25 ERA in advanced-A and a 4.46 ERA in double-A. I'm more interested in his strikeout rate however. He fanned under 7 batters per nine at both levels, including a 16.1% strikeout rate in double-A. By my count, there are exactly two Eastern League pitchers in the last five years who have gone on to become major league starters with a double-A strikeout rate below 17%: Vance Worley and Ricky Romero. By the time both guys reached the majors they had increased their strikeout rates above 18%. Mazzoni, pitching the way he did in 2012, does not miss enough bats to be a Major League starting pitcher. He's not real big – listed at 6'1″ and 190lbs, and has not shown an ability to hold his stuff in a starting role. Generally speaking, in 2012, he would work 91-92 with his fastball most of his start. He might show better velocity earlier, or in a big spot, crank it up to 94 or 95. (I heard he reached 96 against a rehabbing big leaguer.) In short outings out of the bullpen, he should be able to find that plus velocity more consistently. His secondary pitches – a slider and a changeup that mimics a split-finger – are fine if unexceptional. Mazzoni could well be in the Mets' bullpen as soon as mid-late 2013.

erroneous description
By Melba
from Toronto, ON
I ordered this item hoping I could get a better HDMI cable since it says in the heading and description it includes a 25 feet HDMI cable but to my dismay, when I received the package, I found a 2 feet HDMI which I already have at home. This item is due for return and I hope TSC will correct the description as it is very misleading and it's not good.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

In the three decade decline trend for broadcast TV primetime ratings there are seasons that are a bit better than the trend (like last season), and some seasons that are worse than the trend.
After two weeks of the 2012-13 season, it's shaping up to be a lot worse.
In first two weeks of the 2011-12 season, in the advertiser important adults 18-49 Live+Same Day DVR ratings, this season ABC was down 21% in week 1 and 10% in week 2, CBS was down 27% in week 1, and 17% in week 2, Fox was down 24% in week 1 and 19% in week 2. Mostly by virtue of its move of The Voice to the Fall, NBC is the only network to rise, it's up 12% in both week 1 and 2 vs. last season. No valid comparison yet for the CW, unlike recent seasons when they started their shows "early", this season they are starting "late".
The broadcast networks know this season's drop from last season isn't pretty, and their PR operations will be putting out a blizzard of Live+this and Live+that DVR ratings to distract attention from it, but you can look past that to the reality.
While the C+3 Day commercial ratings are all that *really* matter to the business of the broadcast networks, their trends are likely highly correlated with the trend of the Live+Same Day program ratings, and I'd be startled if they showed trends that were much different than the Live+Same Day program ratings.
However, if any network PR department would like to provide me with your season to season C+3 day commercial ratings trends and prove me wrong, I await your emails!

|Watauga Budget Packs the House
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 22 May 2013 07:37
It was certainly not the most fun night to be a sitting Watauga County Commissioner, that as dozens signed up to speak to the commissioners with the overflow standing-room-only crowd there to take issue with the county budget. Commissioners removed, reduced, or did not approve requested
increases for quite a few agencies and non profits in and associated with the county, causing the face-to-face three-minute lectures and appeals from various county parks, AppalCart, Mountain Alliance at Watauga High, the Board of Education, and many agencies that help those unable to otherwise survive in our community. Curt comments and a math lesson were delivered by Todd Carter of Hospitality House, saying, "Eventually you're going to pay for the 225 residents we served last year. You put them in jail, you pay $64 a person a day to house that person in detention. Guess what our cost is? $32 per person per day—and we offer a lot more than jail. It's your choice. Do the math. From where I'm sitting, you're making the fiscally irresponsible choice about what's best for your citizens—and your budget." Christy Welch, wife of commissioner John Welch, told of her family's giving out of their pockets to save some individuals from possibly freezing, "Leadership gains authority and respect when the voiceless poor are treated fairly." From the Hospitality House, cook Allison Jennings told the commissioners, "As a person who sees the face of hunger every day, from homelessness, job loss, addiction, or mental health issues, I ask on the behalf of those struggling neighbors that I love so very much to please help be a part of the solution." Commissioners took no action after the hearing, and will adopt their 2013-14 budget in June.

What you can do about spyware and other unwanted software
What is spyware?
Spyware is a general term used for software that performs certain behaviors such as advertising, collecting personal information, or changing the configuration of your computer, generally without appropriately obtaining your consent. You might have spyware or other unwanted software on your computer if:
? You see pop-up advertisements even when you're not on the Web.
? The page your Web browser first opens to (your home page) or your browser search settings have changed without your knowledge.
? You notice a new toolbar in your browser that you didn't want, and find it difficult to get rid of.
? Your computer takes longer than usual to complete certain tasks.
? You experience a sudden rise in computer crashes.
Spyware is often associated with software that displays advertisements (called adware) or software that tracks personal or sensitive information. That does not mean all software which provides ads or tracks your online activities is bad. For example, you might sign up for a free music service, but "pay" for the service by agreeing to receive targeted ads. If you understand the terms and agree to them, you may have decided that it is a fair tradeoff. You might also agree to let the company track your online activities to determine which ads to show you.
Other kinds of unwanted software will make changes to your computer that can be annoying and can cause your computer slow down or crash. These programs have the ability to change your Web browser's home page or search page, or add additional components to your browser you don't need or want. These programs also make it very difficult for you to change your settings back to the way you originally had them. These types of unwanted programs are also often called spyware.
The key in all cases is whether or not you (or someone who uses your computer) understand what the software will do and have agreed to install the software on your computer.
There are a number of ways spyware or other unwanted software can get on your system. A common trick is to covertly install the software during the installation of other software you want such as a music or video file sharing program. Whenever you are installing something on your computer, make sure you carefully read all disclosures, including the license agreement and privacy statement. Sometimes the inclusion of unwanted software in a given software installation is documented, but it may appear at the end of a license agreement or privacy statement.
Signs of spyware
If your computer starts to behave strangely or displays any of the symptoms listed below, you may have spyware or other unwanted software installed on your computer.
? I see pop-up advertisements all the time. Some unwanted software will bombard you with pop-up ads that aren't related to a particular Web site you're visiting. These ads are often for adult or other Web sites you may find objectionable. If you see pop-up ads as soon as you turn on your computer or when you're not even browsing the Web, you may have spyware or other unwanted software on your computer.
? My settings have changed and I can't change them back to the way they were. Some unwanted software has the ability to change your home page or search page settings. This means that the page that opens first when you start your Internet browser or the page that appears when you select "search" may be pages that you do not recognize. Even if you know how to adjust these settings, you may find that they revert back every time you restart your computer.
? My Web browser contains additional components that I don't remember downloading. Spyware and other unwanted software can add additional toolbars to your Web browser that you don't want or need. Even if you know how to remove these toolbars, they may return each time you restart your computer.
? My computer seems sluggish. Spyware and other unwanted software are not necessarily designed to be efficient. The resources these programs use to track your activities and deliver advertisements can slow down your computer and errors in the software can make your computer crash. If you notice a sudden increase in the number of times a certain program crashes, or if your computer is slower than normal at performing routine tasks, you may have spyware or other unwanted software on your machine.
How to get rid of spyware
Many kinds of unwanted software, including spyware, are designed to be difficult to remove. If you try to uninstall this software like any other program, you might find that the program reappears as soon as you restart your computer. If you're having trouble uninstalling unwanted software, you may need to download a tool to do the job for you. Several companies offer free and low-cost software that will check your computer for spyware and other unwanted software and help you remove it.
Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) include anti-spyware software in their service packages. Check with your ISP to see if they can recommend or provide a tool. If your ISP doesn't offer a removal tool for spyware and other unwanted software, ask people you trust to recommend one, or see the list below for a few well-known tools. Keep in mind that removing unwanted software with these tools may mean you will no longer be able to use a free program that came with the spyware.
To remove spyware
1. Download the new Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) or another spyware removal tool.
2. Run the tool to scan your computer for spyware and other unwanted software.
3. Review the files discovered by the tool for spyware and other unwanted software.
4. Select suspicious files for removal by following the tool's instructions.
How to prevent spyware
Spyware and other unwanted software can invade your privacy, bombard you with pop-up windows, slow down your computer, and even make your computer crash. Here are several ways you can help protect your computer against spyware and other unwanted software.
Step 1: Update your software
If you use Windows XP, one way to help prevent spyware and other unwanted software is to make sure all your software is updated. First, visit Windows Update to confirm that you have Automatic Updates turned on and that you've downloaded all the latest critical and security updates.
Step 2: Adjust Internet Explorer security settings
You can adjust your Internet Explorer Web browser's security settings to determine how much?or how little?information you are willing to accept from a Web site. Microsoft recommends that you set the security settings for the Internet zone to Medium or higher.
To view your current Internet Explorer security settings:
1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools and then click Internet Options.
2. Select the Security tab.
If you're running Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and you use Internet Explorer to browse the Web, your browser security settings for the Internet zone are already set to Medium by default. Internet Explorer in Windows XP SP2 also includes a number of features to help protect against spyware and many other kinds of deceptive or unwanted software.
Step 3: Use a firewall
While most spyware and other unwanted software come bundled with other programs or originate from unscrupulous Web sites, a small amount of spyware can actually be placed on your computer remotely by hackers. Installing a firewall or using the firewall that's built into Windows XP provides a helpful defense against these hackers. To learn more about firewalls, read Why you should use a computer firewall and get answers to your Frequently asked questions about firewalls.
Step 4: Surf and download more safely
The best defense against spyware and other unwanted software is not to download it in the first place. Here are a few helpful tips that can protect you from downloading software you don't want:
? Only download programs from Web sites you trust. If you're not sure whether to trust a program you are considering downloading, ask a knowledgeable friend or enter the name of the program into your favorite search engine to see if anyone else has reported that it contains spyware.
? Read all security warnings, license agreements, and privacy statements associated with any software you download.
? Never click "agree" or "OK" to close a window. Instead, click the red "x" in the corner of the window or press the Alt + F4 buttons on your keyboard to close a window.
? Be wary of popular "free" music and movie file-sharing programs, and be sure you clearly understand all of the software packaged with those programs.
Step 5: Download and install anti-spyware protection
Microsoft currently offers anti-spyware beta software for download; more information is available on our Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) site.

Galesburg, IL -- The Beloit College Football team kept getting up and fighting back but fell just short in a 35-33 Midwest Conference loss at Knox College on Saturday.
The Bucs opened the scoring on Matias Grande's 33-yard field goal on the opening drive of the game. KC took the lead with just over five minutes left in the first quarter with a TD before Beloit retook the lead less than a minute into the second quarter when Will Coyne hit Lukeson Versulien with a two-yard scoring pass. Knox jumped back on top with an interception return TD two minutes later. The Buccaneers pulled to within one on Grande's second field goal of the half, this one from 37 yards out. The Prairie Fire increased their lead to 21-13 on a short scoring pass but Coyne ran one in from seven yards out with 23 seconds left in the half to make it 21-20, Knox, at the break.
Knox had the only score of the third quarter on a short scoring pass to lead 28-20 heading into the fourth quarter and then got a 16-yard run at 9:59 of the fourth to increase their lead to 35-20. But the Bucs still had life left. Nathan Brault caught a 23-yard scoring pass from Coyne just 19 seconds after KC's score to make it 35-27 and then Dillon Hess caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from Coyne at 4:38 to make it a two-point game. But the conversion pass failed to end the scoring.
Coyne finished with 271 passing yards while having a hand in all four Buccaneer TDs. Hess caught six passes for 67 yards. Versulien had another big all-purpose day, accounting for 223 yards, including 169 on kickoff returns. On defense, Derrell Carter had ten tackles, seven solo, and Beloit's lone sack. Antonio Jones and Daniel Collins each had eight tackles.
The Buccaneers stay in Illinois for another MWC road game next Saturday, playing at Illinois College in Jacksonville. Kickoff is at 1:00 p.m.

Rep. Christine Watkins wants fellow legislators and the governor to pass a strongly-worded resolution opposing the Interior Department's pre-Christmas decision on Utah wild lands management. The resolution also urges the department to keep open the process of involving local governments in land use policy making.
The Price Democrat introduced HCR 14, which "condemns the closed process used in issuing Secretarial Order Number 3310."
That order by Secretary Ken Salazar essentially declared that wilderness study areas will be managed as if they were already wilderness. The order, issued by Salazar on Dec. 22, took the governor and other state and county officials by surprise.
Those who oppose the order have said it amounts to a land grab by the Interior Department because it locks up land that hasn't been designated wilderness by Congress.
The resolution notes the success of the Washington County Land Act passed by Congress in 2009. As part of Public Law 111-11, the Land Act designated areas for wilderness and other conservation uses, releasing the rest for future development. The negotiations for that legislation involved many interests "to resolve conflicts and reduce uncertainty in the management of public lands."
Now that San Juan, Emery, Beaver and Piute counties are already involved in complex land use discussions of their own, the resolution urges that these discussions continue with the Interior Department to allow economic development while protecting "appropriate public lands."
The bill moved to the House Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environmental Committee on Tuesday.

This snow report shows the various regions and their snow pack. While the local area is at only 51 percent of snow pack, the moisture in the area measures 80 percent of normal because of some heavy rains that fell last November. However, due to the dry winter much of that water has been lost and soil water is very low in moisture. This means as much of the snow pack melts it will go into the ground rather than run off into streams and reservoirs.
(Editors note: Based on the weather this winter, if things don't change, this area will experience a drought. This is the first in a series of articles examining droughts, water use, water storage/sources, personal water footprints and what the impacts of a prolonged drought has done in the past and can do to the eastern Utah in the future).
When do you know you are in a drought?
Is it when you have noticed that very little snow has fallen in the winter?
Is it when you find yourself being happy because the roads over the canyons you drive have been less snow packed?
Is it when the days are warmer than you remember?
Is it when you turn on the water tap and nothing comes out?
There are a lot more questions one could ask about being in a drought, but all these things could happen in a drought, or they may not.
And it is important to note that while water supply is tied to drought, having a full water supply does not necessarily mean a location is not in a drought.
Of course the most draconian of the questions above is the one about turning on the tap and finding nothing wet coming out of it. That has happened in some places, during droughts. In fact, at present one Texas town is experiencing just that. Spicewood, Texas found out at the end of January that their wells were almost dry and they had to start hauling in water by tanker each day to supply the residents there. The year-long drought in Texas has been the worst since the Great Depression, but a big difference now is that the population of the areas affected has increased so much, and modern water systems and devices take up so much water, that dry taps can develop faster than in the days when water was drawn from a well by a bucket.
The town of Spicewood is an example of a place where a water supply that is available is not being tapped. There is a lake near the town, Lake Travis, but the city doesn't get its water from the lake; it comes from wells. At one point in January the well levels the town draws from dropped 1-3 feet overnight. Other Texas towns have also suffered similar situations and some have built new pipelines from other water sources or moved their water intakes farther into the lakes they get water from.
This is the problem that can arise. There may be sources of water in a drought stricken area, but can that source be either physically or legally used? And if so, how much would it cost to tap into that source?
Drought is a normal and recurring feature of climate. Although it occurs in virtually all of the world's climatic zones, its characteristics vary significantly from one region to another. In some of the world's most arid regions, a drought occurs when annual precipitation drops below 7 inches per year, while in the world's most moisture rich regions, a few weeks without rain might constitute a drought. A drought is based on what is normal or average for the area, or that is how man has come to verify its occurrence, although by watching the natural progress of things around it can be obvious.
Because of this there is no universal definition of drought. In the most general sense, drought is a result of a deficiency of precipitation over an extended period of time, resulting in a water shortage, which impacts normal water usage. The severity of a drought depends upon the degree of moisture deficiency, its duration, and the size of the affected area. Because it is so hard to develop a quantitative definition for drought, it is difficult to determine precisely when a drought starts and ends.
By many measures a drought is the most devastating of all nature's weather-related disasters. In the United States, droughts often become the most costly weather phenomenon there is. In the 20 years preceding hurricane Katrina in 2005, the single largest U.S. weather related disaster was the drought of 1988, which resulted in over $40 billion in damages throughout the central and northeastern parts of the country. Unlike impacts from flood, hurricane, tornado or other weather-related disasters, drought impacts are not always immediate and obvious. Wind damage can be seen and measured. Following a flood it is fairly easy to tally up the value of the destroyed and damaged property. But the effects of a drought can be felt for years. Failed crops can impact food prices well into the future. Devastated domestic livestock, wildlife herds and natural plants can also take many years to recover.
Utah has lived with droughts ever since anyone can recall. It affected the pioneers, people in the 20th century and people today. It is supposed that one of the reasons early peoples cultures in eastern Utah, such as the Fremonts cultural collapse was largely because of drought. The water that was available could not support the agrarian and hunting population of the area.
Man has always tried to preempt drought by drawing water out of lakes or rivers that seemed to be full. Starting with early civilizations, aqueducts and reservoirs became the norm in large population areas. The Roman aqueducts are famous across Europe where the structures carried water sometimes for hundreds of miles.
In many ways today's systems are just extensions of those earlier efforts, but much larger and well developed. Technology has affected water supply by building huge storage and diversion projects that take water over mountains and from one drainage basin to another. These are called trans-basin diversions and while it is debatable in some circles, those don't always work out for the best for where the water is taken from. The Owen's Valley in northern California was once a thriving and green valley until it was tapped by the city of Los Angeles to become one of its major sources of supply. It is a very different place now than it was 100 years ago because of that.
Our modern society has become water hogs. The average person uses about 123 gallons of water per day. This is only for personal use, not including what industry needs and with that added in it is much higher. Flush the toilet, three gallons. Take a shower, 10-30 gallons. Wash the dishes for a day by hand, 20 gallons. Add to that washing clothes, brushing teeth, washing hands, shaving, etc. it can add up fast.
But the trend of water use inside the house is actually going down; conservation has worked in many places, that is except on the lawn and bushes outside.
"The best way to to conserve water is with education," said Jeff Richens, the district manager for the Price River Water Improvement District, referring to the Slow the Flow campaign that has been running along the Wasatch Front and has spilled over into the Carbon area too. "It's interesting to note that from the sewage side of the water system in this county we see much less water coming through our waste water treatment plant than we did in the mid 1980s. But on the opposite end we are treating more and more water every year for supply."
This seeming paradox has arisen because the sewer collection systems in the county have been improved. Thirty years ago many of the sewer lines were old and had cracks in them allowing water infiltration into the system.
"We also had a lot of storm drains (which is illegal) connected to the system," he said. "We have cleaned a lot of that up."
But the increase in culinary water use is a different story. It's not going down drains, new devices and education has worked there. But it is going into the ground from the watering of man-made landscaping. In a drought these activities have a profound affect upon supplies.
"During a water shortage if we ask consumers to just use enough water to keep their trees alive and to let the lawn die, many will comply," stated Richens. "But mandatory restrictions, where say someone in an area can water Monday, Thursday and Saturday, causes people to actually water more. They will water their lawns and bushes the whole time the are allowed to be sure they have enough. Again education is the important part. It is where people can make a difference."
When we as humans think of drought, these are the ways we perceive it. But we sometimes forget that there is lot more to a drought than not being able to water our lawn when we want to. There are things that can damage ecosystems and create problems well beyond our own backyards.

AT&T has given the thumbs up to shared data plans, hopefully ending the waste of gigabytes that family plan customers end up paying for every month. AT&T Mobility CEO Ralph de la Vega announced this week in an interview with CNET that they will be making shared data plans available to subscribers later this year, but he would share no other details.
Family plans as we know them today require customers to pay for two separate lines, each with their own data allowance. Most of the time phone use doesn't come anywhere near the standard 2-3GB limit, so most of it goes to waste.
Leaving your valuable mobile devices unprotected is risky! Discover the latest innovative protection solutions...... stylish top brand bags, sleeves as well as cases and skins specifically designed to protect your devices from scratches and blemishes. Tough on the outside, sweet on the inside these brand name protection accessories combine complete device coverage with sleek artistic expression.
The option to share data usage would allow consumers to buy one chunk of data that can be used across devices including smartphones and tablets. This will at least reduce the amount of data that family plan subscribers needlessly pay for every month.
Take your devices to new level, enhance your mobility and turn your device into a power tool! Discover select accessories such as; stylus & pens, micro SD memory cards, batteries, docking stations, Bluetooth headsets, data cables and XMI Speakers all specifically designed to make your devices functionally efficient and performance rich.
Currently, AT&T and Verizon are the two major cell service providers considering shared data plans, possibly launching them sometime this summer. Of course, data plans are where carriers make most of their money, and with the quarrel heating up over device subsidies, we'll have to wait and see how far AT&T and Verizon are willing to go to improve their pricing.
We're hoping details of the new shared data plans with be available at the upcoming CTIA Spring 2012 show in New Orleans. AT&T and Verizon will both be there, and they know they're going to get asked.

52 Weeks of Sharing Memories: Favourite Toy or Game (Week 12)
This week's topic is your favourite toy or game.
What was your favourite toy?
Why did you like it?
How old were you when you played with it and when did you get it?
What made that toy special?
Do you still have it?
We didn't have a radio or a television in our house when I was young. There was no music because we didn't have a record player. Yes I said "record player" because that was in the days of LPs. Do you remember them?
I loved music although the only time I heard it was at school. I was in a small choir up to Grade 9 and music was a joy for me. So when I was 11 I asked my mom and dad for a record player for my birthday.
They were shocked, because in our family when you turned 11 you were given a bike. No ifs, ands or buts, you got a bike at 11 and you learned to ride it. Mother warned me I could only have one or the other - a bike or a record player. She advised me to make a good choice and reminded me that I should consider myself lucky to be given the choice at all! If she had her way I'd get a bike and that would be that. But my dad wanted me to have what I wanted, not what they decided I was getting. Mother just didn't believe in one child being treated differently than another. In her mind I wasn't special so why was I getting special treatment? My three older siblings got bikes on their birthdays and were very happy so why did I have to rock the boat?
But I insisted. I begged. I cried. And I got my record player. It was a small plastic player in it's own plastic case. I think it was yellow and red but can't quite remember. It came with a few "records" - not 78s or 33's but little thick plastic yellow records with kids songs on each. It wasn't exactly what I had in mind but I loved it. Even better was the year's subscription to a company that sent a new plastic kids record every month. I was in heaven!
I played those records over and over, alone in my room, memorizing the words and singing along. I think that was the happiest moment in my young life up to that point. Sadly the record player is long gone, but boy do I wish I'd kept it just to look at once in awhile.
It's really hard to put into words so that my children or grandchildren might understand what it meant to me. They can't imagine no tv, no radio, no ipod touch, no internet, no playstation or wii or xbox360 and no computer. How can they possibly imagine my growing up years with no music of any kind? But my little plastic record player was my joy.

Don't forget to repeat family members' names, ...My brother and sister ... say my brother Jack and sister Sally and include specifics as addresses, and dates ...when I was 11 year old... say in 1960 for my 11th birthday...
Also To Get you children interested.
Write as a 21st birthday present a child's biography starting with birth, childhood, interests, pictures. It makes a great gift and perhaps they will continue on their own.

Great post! My favorite "toy" was my grandmother's button box and two tiny porcelain figures. I made many fine necklaces and bracelets by stringing these buttons together. I recall examining them in the light, choosing my favorite colors and shapes for my "jewelry."
The button box has long since disappeared, but I keep the little porcelain Kewpie doll and dog in my grandmother's silver jewelry box on my bureau.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Crude-oil futures marked a fifth straight session of loss Monday, turning lower shortly before the day's settlement, as concerns over political strife in Italy and warmer weather forecasts helped trump earlier support from economic data from China.
Oil for January delivery US:CLF3 fell 37 cents, or 0.4%, to settle at $85.56 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It traded higher for the majority of the trading session, tapping a high of $86.78.
On Friday, the contract had lost 0.4%, bringing its decline for the past week to 3.4%. See: Oil settles below $86, loses more than 3% for the week
Back to 1987
for stocks?
Our Trading Deck has been home to a spirited debate over whether we're in for a crash.
• L.A. Little: Don't worry | Michael Gayed: Worry
• The warning signs of a 1987-style crash
• Hulbert: Stocks as overvalued as at 2007 high
Monday's price action was "something of a tug of war," said Tim Evans, an energy futures specialist at Citi Futures. "First, an upward tug off the Chinese import data, and then a pull back to the downside led by heating oil."
"Warmer-than-normal temperatures that also prompted selling in natural gas, weighed on heating oil throughout the session," he said, noting that updated U.S. forecasts extend warmer-than-normal temperatures into the week ending Dec. 21.
January heating oil US:HOF3 settled at $2.90 a gallon, down 2 cents, or 0.7%, and January natural gas US:NGF13 fell 9 cents, or 2.6%, to $3.46 per million British thermal units.
Contributing to oil's losses were concerns over the euro zone, with Italy's government "falling apart," said Phil Flynn, senior market analyst at Price Futures Group.
Italy Prime Minister Mario Monti over the weekend said he was prepared to resign after parliament passes a pending budget law. See: Watch yield spreads as Monti calls it quits.
China data
The concerns helped offset earlier support for oil from some upbeat economic data from China.
Recent data showed November crude-oil shipments to China, the world's second-biggest oil importer after the U.S., sitting just below their record high.
China imported an average of approximately 5.69 million barrels per day last month, according to Reuters, just below February's record-high 5.98 million barrels per day.
Chavez supporters rally in Caracas

Meanwhile, government figures showed that China's November industrial output rose 10.1%, retail sales climbed 14.9% and consumer prices gained 2% from the same period a year earlier. See: China's economy strengthens in November.
But China's exports grew 2.9% in November, decelerating from an 11.6% growth recorded in October. A FactSet survey of economists had estimated exports growth of 10%. See: China's exports, trade surplus disappoint.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Alpine or Nordic, piste or backcountry, development or marketing: when it comes to skiing, Atomic can always be counted on to come up with the cleverest, most innovative, the best ideas – an opinion shared at the very least by the 57 members of the ISPO jury from 14 countries and three continents who will be handing out the coveted awards at Europe's biggest sporting goods trade show.
In 2013 Atomic is the recipient of no fewer than three ISPO AWARDS:
In the booming freeride/touring boots category, the revolutionary Waymaker Tour 110 ski boot has been recognized. The judges' favorite is an ultra-direct performance boot on the downhill and a flexible lightweight boot on the ascent, setting new standards in backcountry touring. Not only is it a winner with the ISPO judges, it's also a favorite with freeride pro Daron Rahlves.
In the Nordic category the super-lightweight Race Skate boot takes top honors: this torsionally stiff training and competition boot brings Boa Lacing technology to cross-country skiing – a real innovation which the judges believe deserves another product award, this time in the "Nordic" category.
The jury also lauded the marketing concept which accompanied the introduction of the new "Marcel Hirscher Icon Series". This was the first time a World Cup skier competed using equipment he actively helped design from the get-go, while at the same time fans also got the chance to emulate their hero using identical equipment. The series has quickly become a must-have among fans – with gear flying off the shelves this winter.
"We're proud that the ISPO AWARDS clearly show the direction of our development," says Atomic CEO Wolfgang Mayrhofer. "Atomic demonstrates leadership in all areas of skiing – racing, touring, on- and off-piste, Alpine and Nordic. For us, the ISPO AWARDS are an acknowledgment of this accomplishment – and for consumers they are an indication of which brand they should trust in."

|DSS: Fed Shutdown to Become Very Real
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 16 October 2013 08:59
The Federal Government shutdown is about to get very real for 150 daycare families, and another 2000 local families are about to lose their food stamps, according to Jim Atkinson of Watauga DSS at last night's Watauga Commission meeting. He said, "One of the things that we're
going to need to do is send out notices to all of the 150 families, cases that we have in child daycare, to suspend their services in daycare and let them know to start looking for other options." He went on to say, "This has an effect not only on families of 300 kids and150 families that we serve, but also on the 38 daycare centers we pay subsidies to. Many of them are not going to be able to stay open as a result. And, of course, the businesses that rely on the employees that are going to have to quit their jobs or find some other arrangements." County Manager Deron Geouque said that the very short-term cost for Watauga for a stop-gap funding of the loss is over a half million dollars in a month—money we may not be reimbursed for with a federal government resumption. The entire situation brought the national bickering to the local level, with Democratic commissioner Billy Kennedy wanting the board to notify congresswoman Virginia Foxx of the local plight, "She should know that there are 300 kids in her county that are going to lose child care." But Republican commissioner David Blust pointed out that the Democrats hold 67% of the government, "Don't make it political saying she's making this decision...but you're inferring that she's making these decisions up there and that's why we've got these problems." In the end, there is no fall-back for these families, and the cost to all of us may soon be very real.

What impact does Evan Longoria's deal have on David Wright?
The Rays and Evan Longoria have agreed to a six-year, $100 million contract extension.
He has four years and $36 million left on his current deal, meaning the new contract keeps him under team control through 2022 and age 36.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
Basically, think of it this way, he just locked in to a 10-year, $136 million deal.
Sure, that's an average of $13 million a year, which seems low. But, he gets to stay with the city and team he loves, he gets his 2014, 2015 and 2016 options guaranteed, and (even if he ends up suffering a major injury or drop off in production) he's guaranteed to be paid millions in his mid 30s. It may seem premature, but he and his family are now set for life, no questions asked.
What does this mean for David Wright? Not much. The six years and $100 million to Longoria doesn't technically start until 2017, whereas Wright's would need to start either this year or next winter. The only significance, I guess, is that it just happens to be the same two sets of numbers that the Mets offered to Wright, based on insiders that I've talked to. Also, it just happens to be the same two sets of numbers that Ryan Zimmerman technically agreed to, though his deal was added to an existing contract as well.
It doesn't matter, though, because, while the Mets can point to Longoria's six years and $100 million, Wright can point to Longoria's 10 years. Plus, either way, Wright is under contract and can threaten to become a free agent one year from now, when he could easily get the seven-year, $140 million deal he is seeking. If I had to choose, I'd say Longoria's deal helps Wright and hurts the Mets, simply because it probably got Wright thinking about what life might be like for him on the open market.

CANTON - A four-legged critter that paid a visit to Canton Central School on Friday afternoon was captured and whisked away just before students departed for the day.
A raccoon was sighted by students and staff at about 1:45 p.m. outdoors near the main entrance doors to McKenney Middle School. School officials alerted Canton Animal Control Officer James E. Pipher, who sped to the scene.
School Superintendent William A. Gregory and other staff members cornered the raccoon before it was captured by Mr. Pipher in a noose-like device. Canton Village Patrolman Kevin Mousaw also assisted.
Although the animal wasnt acting strange or sickly, Mr. Gregory said he was concerned about students coming in contact with the animal as they were dismissed from the buildings. If the animal turned out to have rabies, those who had contact might have to undergo a series of anti-rabies vaccinations.
I was worried about getting him out of there before all the students came out for the buses, Mr. Gregory said. It looked like he (the raccoon) was just out sunning himself. He was sitting there licking his paws.
Several students were watching from classroom windows as the men tried to corner the raccoon. Some cheered when they saw the animal was captured, but not killed.
Mr. Pipher said he did not shoot the raccoon because it showed no signs of having rabies, such as stumbling over, acting lethargic or frothing at the mouth. Also, it did not come in contact with any one.
You can tell when theyre sick. This was a healthy raccoon,Mr. Pipher said. He estimated it was about 1 � years old.
Mr. Pipher contacted the St. Lawrence County Health Department and assured health officials the animal did not have any human contact. They advised him to release the animal on state land. He dropped the raccoon on state land near the Indian Creek Nature Center, Rensselaer Falls.
In 2012, the countys public health department recorded five rabid raccoons.
Mr. Pipher said the stretch of unseasonable warm weather earlier this month had caused some animals to come out of hibernation. In particular, hes received several calls about skunks roaming around when theyre usually holed up underground this time of year.
After large amounts of snow melted quickly, some skunks were flooded out of their holes, he said. When the temperatures dropped again, the holes froze over forcing the skunks to burrow new holes.
Raccoons usually hibernate in hollow parts of trees, but they may also come out looking for food when the weather gets warm, he said.
I think this raccoon just got confused. He made a mistake and stumbled out of the woods looking for something to eat, Mr. Pipher said. When it warms up, animals may think its time to wake up.
