Pajarito Environmental Education Center welcomes national skunk expert Jerry Dragoo, who talk at the Nature Center from 2-3 p.m. Nov. 11.
This adult and family talk is free to PEEC members and is $5 per person or $10 per family for non-members. Dragoo will talk about his years of skunk research and give a behind-the-scenes look at the PBS Nature episode, "Is That Skunk," on which he was featured.
The skunk is one of the most recognized mammals in North America and, due to its use of scent glands as a defense mechanism, it also is one of the most maligned.
However, "the skunk" refers to more than the well-known striped skunk.
The Mephitidae (skunk family) is composed of 12 species, which occur primarily in the western hemisphere (four of these species are in New Mexico).
Skunks are a diverse group of carnivores living in a variety of habitats with different ecological requirements and a wide variety of behavioral and reproductive idiosyncrasies.
Skunks also can provide economic benefits, but occasionally, individual animals are perceived as nuisance animals.

I think he is a slightly above-average defensive CF, so I am in between the fans and managers.

To me he just looks kind of slow chasing after fly balls (especially coming in on balls) compared to a guy like Austin Jackson. He has seemed to improve on going back on balls at the wall/track though.

By COLLIN MCRANNSun Advocate reporter
On Oct.1, the Helper museum received a total of $300,000 from the Community Impact Board (CIB) to expand and upgrade the Western Mining and Railroad Museum. Although half of the money was a loan which will be paid back over the next 30 years, the other half was a grant. Construction on the museum has been ongoing for several months.
The city council voted on Oct. 14 to accept the money. The city will pay $5,000 per year at zero percent interest for the loan with a sales tax security.
"Everything was approved and it went well," said Councilman Kirk Mascaro, who secured the money.
In another city improvement, the council accepted a bid from Pieracci and Siapers Construction for a low bid of $106,928 to provide landscaping around the city pool.
"This will be a wonderful asset for the city," said Mayor Mike Dalpiaz.
The city cemetery's limited expansion possibilities, a long standing city issue that, like so many others, concerns space, was also discussed. A cemetery expansion is currently planned, but council members have also been discussing the possibility of stacking graves. This proposal, while not uncommon in other areas, has been proposed as an option for those who buy plots in Helper. There would be a limit of two graves per plot. Plot cost will remain consistent, but internment fees will likely increase for the additional space needed.
"Down the road, it's probably going to save us money, but at some point we will have to expand the cemetery," said Mr. Dalpiaz.
Expanding the Helper cemetery is expensive, because the rocky terrain makes digging difficult and dynamite must be used. In all, the general concept of grave stacking was accepted by the council, but many details are forthcoming. Some possible interment fees include $450 for a lower grave and $250 for the upper, if a plot owner decides to choose the stacking option, which will only be available for newly-dug graves.
Another standing issue involves a broken Rocky Mountain Power meter that the council has discussed several times. The meter, which gave incorrect measurements of city power usage for about a year, has caused the company to bill the city about $60,000, which is disputed. Possible litigation could result, but Councilman Dean Armstrong has voiced concern that few precedents exist and that it might be in the best interest of the city to settle. Currently, no action has been taken, but the council is responding to a letter from RMP and is hoping for a compromise.

Send it my way!
VPI HW 16.5 Record Cleaning Machine from Soundstage Direct Sweepstakes
According to the company:
The HW-16.5 is the standard in affordable record cleaning machines but neither its build quality nor its cleaning power has been compromised. Its high-torque, 18 RPM turntable motor is more than capable of withstanding the pressure of heavy scrubbing during extended cleaning sessions, and its 35-second cleaning cycle per side makes quick work of even the dirtiest records. Now with self aligning vacuum suction tubes for even more accurate cleaning, the HW-16.5's high-powered vacuum ensures quick, deep cleaning.
The newly designed vacuum pickup tube automatically adjusts to accommodate records of any thickness. The internal fluid collection system is made of stainless steel to prevent corrosion, and the fully enclosed design prevents splashing. In the VPI tradition, all components are extra heavy-duty and professional grade.
"I have found the HW-16.5 to be an outstanding performer. The record surfaces are microscopically clean and are so pristine they look new!" -- Bert Whyte, Audio Magazine
Clean your records with the HW-16.5 and hear what you've been missing. Includes: Built in dust cover 8oz bottle of VPI cleaning fluid & cleaning brush

The Portland Office of Emergency Management along with the Portland Bureau of Development Services, Multnomah County Emergency Management, Clackamas County Emergency Management and American Red Cross Oregon Trail Chapter will hold a public meeting on Monday, April 25th to discuss how residents can better prepare their homes for an earthquake.
The recent 9.0 magnitude earthquake in Japan is a reminder the Pacific Northwest is also in a seismically active region. Our last catastrophic quake was geologically similar to the one in Japan and struck off the West Coast on January 26, 1700. Scientists expect it is only a matter of time before pressure builds along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, causing a region-wide quake with significant structural damage to buildings, injuries to thousands and potential loss of life.
Although a major earthquake occurring in the future is a near certainty, there are many steps residents can take to better prepare their homes and businesses and reduce the likelihood of damage. The three speakers at the event will share some of these actions: Jim Nicks of the Portland Bureau of Development Service will discuss the City's Residential Seismic Strengthening Program; Jay Wilson of Clackamas County will share his personal home retrofitting experience; and Francisco Ianni of American Red Cross will provide general emergency preparedness tips.
Volunteers from Portland's Neighborhood Emergency Teams (NETs) will be available to answer questions about the NET program as an opportunity for Portlanders to get directly involved with community preparedness.
WHAT: Home Earthquake Preparedness Meeting
WHEN: Monday, April 25, 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
WHERE: St. Johns Community Center (8427 N. Central St., Portland OR 97203)

Leadership: Following what Arises06/29/2011
By Diane Moore
A definition of leadership is emerging in my thinking based on several recent encounters with leaders who might not think of themselves as such.
I began graduate school at LIOS in part because I was inspired by a few graduates who awoke in me a sense of "I want that!" They had some way of being I could not articulate. They were powerful and vulnerable at the same time. They spoke about things that I did not know people could speak about in a workplace, like trust and care. It is only after several years that I now realize what I recognized in them. The "that" which I wanted was leadership. They spoke about what mattered to them. And that mattered.
As I watch my thoughts on leadership develop, I encounter my old definition of leadership. My story was something involving a charismatic person in a position of authority: presidents and CEOs, executives and inspiring political organizers. I think we could all name several of these types of leaders.
This story is transforming into recognition that a leader is a person, any person, who is deeply in tune with what arises in them and brings it forward into the world. Leadership is that simple. The complexity, if there is any, is getting out of my own way; to allow that which arises in me to have voice in the world. Even if it is not what is expected of me; even if it does not please the people around me; and maybe most importantly, even if it surprises me, I must not abandon authenticity for consistency.
Three experiences in particular have emboldened this emerging notion.
Bin Laden's Death: Celebration or Wake-up Call?06/02/2011
by David Franklin
This just in: Bin Laden has finally been killed.
I start to see the reaction amongst many people in the West: celebration, rejoicing, time to party, "it's about time he got what was coming to him."
Somehow, I get the feeling he (and many other people he was aligned with) were thinking the same things about us after 9/11.
And we hated them for it.
Which begs the question, "why is it then acceptable for us to feel and react that way?"
Are we better than they are? Are we right and they are wrong? Why do we get to claim the "moral high ground?"

Utah parents now have a new tool to protect their children on the Internet. Attorney General Mark Shurtleff and Former State Representative Mike Styler demonstrated today how the state's new Child Protection Registry will keep adult-oriented email messages from children's computers.
"The registry is a lot like the "Do-Not-Call List." Basically it's giving parents the ability to say 'Do not send porn to my children,'" says Shurtleff.
Starting July 15, parents have been able to place their child's email address on the registry. Utah is the second state in the nation to launch this type of program, Michigan started its registry on July 1.
Here's how it works: Businesses that use e-mail to advertise sexually-oriented products will be required to scrub their lists of any email addresses included in the registry. These "e-marketers" will have to delete the addresses every 30 days to remain in compliance with Utah law. Hundreds of businesses, representing billions of messages sent each day, have already stated they will comply with Michigan and Utah registry laws. In Utah, the companies will be required to be in compliance by August 15.
Utah's registry is state supported but taxpayer dollars will not be used to pay for the service. Funding will be provided by fees paid by the same e-marketing companies that are required to remove the email addresses from their lists. In Utah, this fee is half of one cent for every name on the e-marketer's list.
Unspam Technologies, a Utah-based company, pioneered the technology that encrypts the emails to ensure security and anonymity for everyone registered on the list. The company is providing the service for both Utah and Michigan.
"The technology utilized was created to stand up not only to threats from external hackers but also rogue employees or careless practices," says Ben Dahl, co-founder of Unspam Technologies. "We are confident in the security of the registered email addresses."
Dahl says each email address on the registry will be identified by a "one-way hash," which will be similar to a fingerprint. The registry will not store the actual email address, just the hash, so outsiders will never be able to identify the person providing the address.
Former Representative Styler sponsored the bill to create the registry during the 2004 legislative session. He says he wanted to give parents the ability to fight back against companies that were targeting children with sexually oriented emails.
