We make no secret of the fact that we gravitate towards all things shiny (diamonds, sequins, foil, anything really). Lately, however, we've cultivated an infatuation with silver shoes, a trend that's now enjoying its proper turn in the spotlight. Though metallic footwear oozes a sleek, modern vibe, what we appreciate most is how it meshes so effortlessly with just about any outfit. After all, we can't imagine a single color that doesn't go well with silver! Little wonder we recently spotted silver shoes cropping up on a handful of It girls like Olivia Palermo and Alexa Chung, demonstrating exactly why the subject of today's Accessory Report is a must-have this season.
While the 3.1 Phillip Lim S/S 12 collection was a sea of enchanting sorbet pastels and cool monochromatic tones, what we coveted most was the designer's shiny Cody Half d'Orsay Sandals ($595, available in late February) in Silver. With a clear ankle strap and chunky heel, the shoes are a perfect day-to-night pick, offering a little flash at the workplace and a fashion-forward heel at happy hour! We wouldn't be surprised if these sandals inspired Hanneli Mustaparta and Caroline Sieber, who paired their silver kicks with fun, flirty outfits ideal for spring. At the Theyskens' Theory S/S 12 show in New York last fall, fresh-faced blogger/photographer Mustaparta donned 3.1 Phillip Lim's Sleeveless Printed Dress With Scarf ($750) in Navy and Mulberry's Carter Camera Bag ($1400), a colorful combo that screams playful and cute. But the addition of Alexander Wang's minimalistic Fabiana Sandals ($495) in Silver (sadly, these F/W 11 stunners are sold out) injects Mustaparta's getup with the right touch of ladylike elegance. Meanwhile at the Chanel Pre-Fall 12 show in Paris last December, Caroline Sieber paired the label's jacket and Clutch Bag ($2600) in Lambskin with Celine's Multicolour Fantasy Jaquard Bikini Top ($890, 305.866.1888) from Resort 12 and vintage skirt. The stylist finished off her sassy, skin-baring outfit with Celine's chunky platform shoes for a look that's equal parts sweet and edgy.
While Mustaparta and Sieber's attire exudes femininity, Olivia Palermo and Alexa Chung opted for a slightly quirkier style. Though Palermo donned an all-black ensemble in New York at last October's celebration for the Macy's and Giambattista Valli designer collaboration, her careful attention to detail elevates what very well may have been a chic, yet inconspicuous, outfit. The model/television personality, a true sartorial star, adorns her Giambattista Valli for Macy's Strapless Velvet Burnout Tulip Skirt Dress ($40) and Emporio Armani F/W 11 blazer with shiny accents: a hint of sparkle from an embellished gold belt and a Mango sequined bag, a subtle glint from Miriam Haskell earrings and a vintage silver necklace. But we especially love how Palermo's party look gets a tomboyish twist from a pair of Sergio Rossi shoes! These lace-up oxfords with a mirror-finish serve as a fun departure from typical evening footwear. While in New York in early January, Chung also wore a mashup of dressy and casual pieces, like a Topshop hooded coat, Marc Jacobs Crewneck Draped Dress with Cabuchon Embroidery ($3600, 212.705.2000), and Marc Jacobs Metallic Mary Jane Pumps ($645) from the S/S 12 collection. In a versatile dusky silver shade, the glossy pointy-toe heels perfectly complement Chung's embellished dress.
Though you may regret that we're now out of celebrity examples, there is a silver lining! We gathered a top-notch selection of this accessory du jour for your perusal, including KARL's Metallic Leather Wedge Sandals ($405) and Nine West's Fastlife Heels ($99). Though the shoes are on opposite ends of the price spectrum, both convey Mustaparta and Sieber's fashion-forward vibe and serve as fitting footwear for a night on the town. If you fancy the shape of Chung's pointy-toe heel, consider B Brian Atwood's strappy Fineday High Heels ($375), which would look appropriate with tights (a la Chung) or bare legs. But if you seek on-trend shoes that offer comfort and style at the same time (a rare breed, indeed!), you'll find them in BCBGMAXAZRIA's luminous Blake Oxfords ($195). Much like Palermo's own version, these shoes feature a reflective sheen and a low heel, clearly proving all that glitters is not gold-quite often, it's silver!-Tiffany Tse

FOWLER Members of the St. Lawrence Valley Draft Horse Club and people from all over Northern New York brought their antique farming equipment to Edward C. Siebelss farm, 362 County Route 22, for an annual weekend known as Plow Days.
Children and families young and old crowded around old pieces of equipment used for plowing, hay cutting, threshing and corn cutting that cluttered the front of the property.
Club President Liston C. Willard of Hermon said the club has been having Plow Days the weekend after Labor Day for about 24 years.
Some older teamsters got together and wanted people to see how things were done back when equipment wasnt so technical, he said. It was hard work, and they wanted to preserve that knowledge for the younger generation.
Mr. Willard said the Draft Horse Club consists mostly of farmers, horse lovers and people with hobbies that incorporate horses.
We have members that dont have horses, but most of them do or have come from a horse background, he said.
Organizers lined up horses harnessed with different pieces of equipment to parade around the grounds at 1:30 p.m. Sunday.
Richard A. Clement Sr., Fowler, a member of the clubs board of directors, had four different stations set up for old equipment he was showing.
He had a wooden wagon wheel booth along with an antique wood planer, a cider mill and a blacksmith shop set up in a row.
An old sawmill also was part of the equipment show and belonged to Edward Siebelss brother Andrew.
Wagons rides were given to children and adults who wanted a tour of the property. As the wagon tour approached the back of the property, people could see the cornfields and watch demonstrations of hand plows in action.
Also in the back of the farm was a patch of potatoes for children to dig up.
We have a lot of school-age kids here, he said. Im amazed at how many kids cant believe the potatoes coming out of the ground over there.
There also was a small arena of miniature horses for children to lead around.
Six-year-old Alex B. Farney and his younger brother, Caleb M., 4, have enjoyed Plow Days every year of their lives. Their grandmother, Paula M. Farney, brings them each year to ride in the wagons, see the miniature horses and learn about all the different machines and plows that farmers used years ago.
Now at 6 years old, Alex is really getting into it and can really understand because hes got uncles that have farms, Mrs. Farney said. Weve been on the wagon rides already and Caleb led the mini horses around.
Although Plow Days has been a tradition for more than 20 years, Edward Siebels has been hosting it for about seven.
His farm used to be run by his father, William J., who is also the treasurer of the Draft Horse Club.
He said the annual weekend event is one of the clubs biggest fundraisers and has been well-received by the community over the years.
Weve had a lot of positive feedback, he said Sunday. Yesterday there was a group of Canadians here, and they were really impressed with it.
Gail P. Aldous, Canton, was managing a raffle table under a large white tent. She said dozens of raffle tickets were sold, along with bags of freshly dug potatoes, cabbages and bags of oats and straw.

A Partnership Press
Here is an alternative way to publish your Quaker book so that you retain full ownership of the right to publish. You make the investment, you own the books, and you take on both the risks of the investment and the possible benefit of the sales.
Why does FGC offer this alternative publishing model?
In these rapidly changing days of book production and book sales, we have the resources to produce only a few of the new titles we would like to make available to our readers. By entering into a partnership with authors or other funders, we can help bring to birth a larger number of titles that serve our mission.
We are a partnership press – not a vanity press.
Why choose QuakerBridge Media?
- FGC puts our name and reputation behind QuakerBridge Media publications. We select only those manuscripts that meet the content requirements and standards of professionalism we require for our traditional imprint, QuakerPress.
- QuakerBridge Media publications are carried in QuakerBooks of FGC, our online and traveling bookstore. They are listed in our online catalog. We will send out review copies and advise you about promotion.
- We can provide you with all the features of a professionally produced book, including copyediting, design, indexing, printing, an ISBN number, Library of Congress listing, and more. We can also produce digital books for ereaders.
How do I get started?
We use the same submission process for both presses. See our author's guidelines and our author proposal form.
Once we read the author proposal form and review the manuscript, we will tell you whether we think it is a candidate for us to publish. We will describe the steps in the process and discuss the work to be done. For example, will the book need an index? Will copy editing be heavy or light? Based on these details, and your preferences, we can give you an estimate of the timeline and cost, and make a mutual decision about whether and how to proceed.
Send questions to firstname.lastname@example.com.

The work is a monumental compilation, and orderly arrangement of all biblical and rabbinic rules, practices, and customs. The Mishnah Torah is an unparalleled masterpiece of comprehensive halachic knowledge covering almost every topic of jewish life including medicine as the Rambam was the personal doctor to the sultan.

LONDON (MarketWatch) — European stocks climbed as investors showed greater tolerance for risk Thursday, after U.S. policy makers expressed optimism that they could reach a deal to avert the so-called fiscal cliff.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index SXXP, -1.31% rallied 1.2% to close at 276.31, the highest level since early June last year.
"Financial markets are trading at the mercy of the fiscal cliff at the moment and very choppy sessions should be expected ahead of Christmas," analysts at Danske Bank said in a note.
European markets were buoyed by Wednesday comments from U.S. politicians that calmed nerves about the fiscal cliff — the hundreds of billions in tax hikes and across-the-board spending cuts that would take effect in 2013, jeopardizing prospects for the largest global economy. See: U.S. stocks rally as politicians talk deal
President Barack Obama said late Wednesday he hoped to resolve the fiscal-cliff issues before Christmas, while House Speaker John Boehner told reporters he was hopeful that Republicans could reach a deal with the White House "sooner rather than later." See: Goldman's five strategies for 2013 and S&P 500 targets
After European markets closed on Thursday, however, Boehner made new comments, saying there has been no "substantive progress" in the fiscal-cliff negotiations. The comments caused U.S. stocks to give up most of their gains.
"It has to be emphasized that there are in fact few indications that the two sides are moving closer to each other on important issues like taxes," the Danske Bank analysts wrote.
Earlier this week, financial markets sold off after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid expressed disappointment with the state of negotiations.
Victoria Clarke, an economist at Investec Securities, said that worries politicians won't reach a deal in time "is starting to have an impact on investors already." "The Beige Book showed yesterday that the uncertainty is weighing on certain investments and we will see that escalate as we get closer to the end of the year without a deal," she said. See related: Fed's Beige Book finds weak factory activity.
In U.S. economic news, pending homes sales climbed 5.2% in October, while the U.S. economy grew by 2.7% in the third quarter, up from a previous estimate of 2%. See: U.S. Q3 GDP revised up to 2.7% from 2.0%
On the data front Thursday in Europe, numbers for Germans without a job rose by 5,000 in November, well below an increase of 18,000 expected by analysts, according to FactSet. The jobless rate in the biggest European economy stood at 6.9%, as expected.
In London, shares of Invensys PLC UK:ISYS jumped 8.9%. Late Wednesday, the software firm said it sold its rail-signaling unit to Germany's Siemens AG SIE, -1.11% US:SI for 1.74 billion pounds ($2.78 billion). Barclays raised its rating on Invensys to overweight from equal-weight following the announcement.
Shares of Siemens gained 0.3% in Frankfurt.

PYRITES A couple stood in below-zero temperatures Friday evening, watching as their home was engulfed in smoke and flames.
Matthew N. Foote, 24, and his girlfriend, Amber L. Brown, 31, said they were trying to thaw the pipes under their trailer at 177 North Woods Road when smoke suddenly filled the home and the power went out.
I was using a salamander forced-air heater trying to thaw the pipes, and it looked like a tire caught fire, Mr. Foote said. The first thing we saw was the smoke. The house just filled with smoke.
Water tankers from multiple volunteer fire departments continued to fill a portable reservoir as Pyrites and Canton volunteer firefighters battled the stubborn blaze.
They are going to have a hard time putting that out, Mr. Foote said. We have a wood stove going in there.
Standing in the neighboring driveway of her brother, Brian Brown, Ms. Brown said the house went up in less than five minutes. As the halls filled with smoke and flames started ravaging the structure, Mossy, their 1�-year-old German shepherd, ran for the door to escape.
We had everything in there, Ms. Brown said, shivering in the cold, holding a Styrofoam cup of coffee.
The fire started at the rear of the house, the couple said. The home, owned by Ms. Browns parents, was insured, she said.
She said they planned to stay with Mr. Footes parents while they figure out their next move.
The firefighters, who started battling the blaze about 5:30 p.m., were still at the scene at 8 p.m.
Russell, Pierrepont, Hermon, Morley and DeKalb Junction volunteer fire departments assisted.

Avengers assemble in the skincare aisle!
Photos: Kiehl's
Remember when Captain America rang in the New York Stock Exchange? Yeah, me neither. However, Kiehl's and Marvel Custom Solutions have paired up for the second time to assemble a triple threat of Avengers (Black Widow and the Falcon are joining super-soldier Captain America) for a limited 12-page custom Captain America comic book.
The comic finds the trio along with S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury in space fighting off AIM soldiers who are after "rare botanicals" that supposedly comprise the Super Soldier Serum responsible for Cap. Soon, though, they realize that M.O.D.O.K. and the botanicals are in the East Village apothecary.

By Gabriel HuntEast Carbon
Cody Judy's Meet the Candidates presentation in the Oct. 7 Sun Advocate was laughable at best. In a lame attempt to fashion himself part of the new breed of anti-establishment candidates, he does nothing to seriously prop up his own candidacy, by running solely on a far fetched Obama "birther" platform.
His words present little or no substance regarding policy changes, and come off as conspiratorial and nonsensical. Maybe if he were to read Ron Paul's "The Revolution": would he realize that the constitution had been shredded long before Obama was in office(i.e. 43's Iraq war declaration, use of torture, Patriot Act, etc.)
Make no mistake though, the current administration is copacetic with treading on privacy rights just as much as the previous one, but unfortunately this very erosion is one of the few subjects the bipartisan hacks in Washington can agree on.
If voters really believe in liberty and abiding by the constitution, they should throw their support behind debate reform, which would rightfully give viable third party candidates in the polls, by allowing their message to actually be heard.

I agree. I don't think the ark has been found either. It always upsets me when I hear Young Earthers make claims like this. Even more when they claim that there is scientific evidence for a "young" universe. The fact remains that the universe is arround 13.7 billion years old.

Hilarious! I just got sent this link by someone the yesterday. They said something like 'Check this out. Who knows if they're right, but hey... you never know.'
I responded by illustrating the other massive issues with the story from a natural sense (geological/archaeological evidence, speciation, where did the water come from/go?).
The response came back that he didn't really mean it in the first place and that I shouldn't take Genesis so literally.
I asked for any predictive system for discerning what of scripture is literal/figurative other than whatever-is-proven-wrong-by-science-is-figurative-and-the-rest-is-literal. No response yet.
I can't figure out what I'm supposed to take from the flood story in a 'figurative' sense. What meditative gem lies uncovered for me?
Even more so why god specifically inspired it to be noted that one could stone a woman found not to be a virgin on her wedding night on her father's door step.
So... as John points out, the flood is bunk. Given that, I wonder if this point becomes one focused on the issue that god supposedly inspired the Bible, but there are problems in it that have to be explained away? In my experience, bringing up any objections with respect to scripture is always met by accusations of 'misreading, mistranslation, interpretation, taking out of context, etc.'
This seems to be circular to me. God is perfect, therefore his word is perfect. Any apparently 'wrong' things in his word are not actually wrong... because God is perfect.
So, again, what's an objective, predictive, testable set of rules that forms the basis for figurative/literal reading of parts of the Bible? If someone can lay this out and it's ever disproven (again), will Christians recant on Biblical inerrancy or belief in god? If not, why not?

Id say its more likely the Noah story came about by early mans interpretations of trying to understand certain situations he saw and experienced around him.Such as seeing some sign of deposits of sand and shells and petrified fish bones etc.....found high up in the mountains!.Far away from the sea
Wondering how the hell they might have ever ended up getting there?,thinking it might have been through anger of the Gods flooding the land.Seeing as anything seen as bad like tsunarmi,eartquake.killer lightning bolts,drought,failed crops,flood etc etc ....back in them days was almost always all said to be because of the ANGER OF GODS
While not yet understanding, that yes, landforms can actually sometimes also rise up out of below the waves of the seas.

Two things I have to say.
First of all, a link from this one states that the archeologists rule out this find being human settlement becuase this discovery was found at 13000 feet and no human settlements have been discovered higher then 11000 feet in the Ararat Mts
So what their saying here is that there has been human settlements found in the Ararat Mts before......they are also saying that some were found as high as 11000 feet....so what is so unplausable with this just being another human settlement of some kind?
Also, these christian archeologists said that according to the carbon dating some chunks of wood from the site dated at 4800 years old which is around the time of the flood.......this is so hypocritical, christians are always discrediting carbon dating and saying how inaccurate it is, but when it fits their own belief's carbon dating suddenly becomes evidence for their finding....?

The Massena Central and Potsdam Central girls lacrosse teams netted contrasting NAC wins on their home turfs on Tuesday to set up a Thursday afternoon matchup of early-season unbeatens.
Massena 18, OFA 8: At Mike Nicholas Field, the Lady Raiders steadily pulled away to their second win in as many games this spring as Erin Francis dissected the OFA defense for nine goals and four assists. Alisha Jacobs tallied four goals and three helpers. Ashlyn Olson scored twice. Dominique Valancius and Devin Kelly both finished with a goal and assist while Makaul Vandermast and Shannon Casey accounted for the other goals.
Mackenzie Bressett and Kaitlin Sheppard anchored the OFA scoring with two goals and an assist each. Nikki Holmes and Nicole Hammond added two goals each while Julia Mullin logged a solo assist.
Annalee Beckstead had another solid outing between the pipes for the Lady Raiders, making seven saves in her second career start, while Erica Chase turned aside 10 shots for OFA (1-2, 1-1).
The Lady Raiders will now get set to host Potsdam on Thursday starting at 4:30 p.m. The Massena boys will then host Potsdam in the nightcap of the NAC double-header.
Potsdam 13, Canton 12: At the PCS turf field, the host Lady Sandstoners extended a 6-4 halftime lead to 8-4 early in the second half before answering a Canton comeback with a last-minute rally to earn the win.
Junior Nettie Rishe produced a career-high 10 points on eight goals and two assists in the winning effort. Michaela Cole added three goals and one helper while Kalie Grant (1 assist) and Jenny Tardelli closed out the Lady Sandstoner scoresheet.
Tess Knight and Alison Noble led the Lady Golden Bears with three goals apiece. Molly McMasters chipped in a pair while Rachel Huntley, Lacey Kenny, Katie Lapinski and Kali Frank all struck for singletons and Morgan Eggleston notched a solo assist.
Katelyn Bloom made seven saves for Potsdam, which improved to 2-1 overall, while Meg Howard did likewise for Canton (0-2).
Heuvelton 10, Salmon River 9 (OT): In the other NAC girls lacrosse matchup on Thursday, Heuvelton evened its NAC mark to 1-1 (1-2 overall) with an overtime win over Salmon River.
The Lady Shamrocks rallied from a 5-1 halftime deficit to tie the game and survived a potential late game-winning goal when a Heuvelton tally was waived off due to a player entering the crease.
In overtime, Jackie Sovie connected for her seventh goal of the game just 13 seconds into the three-minute session to lift the Lady Bulldogs to the win.
Victoria Thompson forced overtime at 9-9 for the Shamrocks with her only goal of the game as Salmon took 6-5 and 8-7 leads in the second half.
Olivia St. Pierre had a tieing goal at 6-6 for Heuvelton one of her two in the game. Ashlyn Foster also scored once for the winners who receive one assist from Sovie and Maddie St. Pierre and seven saves from Heather Thompson.
Tewashorake Barnes and Kierra Thompson each scored three goals for Salmon River. Kiana Thompson, Vanna Thompson and Victoria Thompson all scored once. Kierra Pyke had five saves for Salmon River which is slated to play a non-league game in Lake Placid against Northwood Prep on Thursday before traveling to Canton for an NAC encounter on Friday starting at 4:30 p.m.

CANTON Jake Watson rose above his circumstances on a struggling Canton high school hockey team last season.
Watson, now a junior, played in goal for a program that had won four state titles but last year staggered to a 3-14-3 overall record.
But Watson played impressively enough to earn honorable mention status on the all-state Division I squad and is back for what could be his final season as a Golden Bear.
I think he did a real good job, said Canton coach Randy Brown, a former goalie at St. Lawrence Central and SUNY Potsdam. We were having such a hard time scoring that we were putting a lot of pressure on him. But he played solid game in and game out. He let a goal in and very seldom did that goal cause him to let another bad one in afterwards because he was worrying about it. He was pretty good about shaking it off, having that selective amnesia and moving on.
Watson knows better than anyone whats expected of a Canton hockey program. He goes to practice several days a week in the Canton Pavilion and sees the four state championship banners.
Canton, for as long as I can remember, youd grow up wanting to be a hockey player, Watson said. You looked up at the programs that were from here, not just the state (championship) teams, but SUNY Canton does well at their level and, of course, St. Lawrence University. Joe (Marsh) was a pretty big influence on me in my younger years. Hes a family friend.
This whole area is really surrounded by hockey and right at the forefront is St. Lawrence in your backyard. Canton has always been about tradition. Theres always that sense of tradition with Canton athletics and hockey is more evident. Its even about how you carry yourself as a person after you are done playing here.
Watson said he went to games before he was in high school and his role model as a goalie was former Golden Bear Joe Spadaccini, who played at SLU. He also looked up to Sean and Kyle Flanagan, who both moved on to SLU.
Last year may have been a difficult one for the Golden Bears, but with Watson in goal, Canton believes it can contend if some of its younger players emerge as scoring threats.
Even though Watson is a junior, he could be done with his Canton career after this season.
Said Brown, It may be time for him to (leave for prep school), I dont know. Ive never been opposed to that.

The Price City Council, as a result of a tie-breaking vote cast by Mayor Joe Piccolo, chose Grady McEvoy to fill the unexpired term of his wife Jeanne, who recently resigned her seat on the council to take employment out of town.
The new councilman is a theater instructor at USU Eastern and a former chairman of the Carbon School District Board. He will remain in Price because of his contract with the college.
Piccolo cast the deciding vote Wednesday when council members Kathy Smith and Layne Miller voted for McEvoy while Rick Davis and Wayne Clausing voted no. The mayor had said before the vote that the quality of candidates for the position meant that the council could not make a wrong decision in its choice.
Others seeking the open seat were:
R. J. Marshall, chief engineer at the Utah American Energy Lila Canyon Mine;
Richard Tatton, long-time council member who declined to run for re-election last year; and
Kendra Seeley, who has been active in community service, including membership on the city library board and the recent city centennial committee.

Japanese gardens are rooted in two traditions: an indigenous prehistoric tradition in which patches of graveled forest or pebbled beach were dedicated to nature spirits, and a tradition from China and Korea that included elements such as ponds, streams, waterfalls, and rock components. This book explores the history, symbolism and composition of the traditional Japanese garden. The basic building blocks of this gardening tradition, such as rocks, sand, ponds, and more, are examined in a very clear and precise manner.
Brimming with over 250 stunning photographs of graveled courtyards, warrior gardens, tea gardens and more, as well as gorgeous watercolor garden designs, The Art of the Japanese Garden is a valuable resouce for anyone interested in gardening, landscape design, or Japanese art and culture.

Jefferson County legislators got their first glimpse Thursday at a plan for a multiyear, $15 million overhaul of the countys aging public safety communications systems.
This is one of the most expensive projects weve been looking at in a long time, said General Services Committee Chairman Philip N. Reed, R-Fishers Landing. Were going to keep scrutinizing it. Its going to take a while. We want to make sure we get it right.
Given the state of the countys system, which dates to the 1970s and is full of problems, the upgrade is a necessary project, according to Jefferson County Director of Fire and Emergency Management Joseph D. Plummer.
The system does not have the capacity or the power to accommodate the demands placed on it by the countys emergency response personnel, who have to be able to communicate across several agencies to coordinate efforts in the event of a natural disaster, Mr. Plummer said.
To remedy this, officials are advocating for a system that will relieve the demands placed on the countys dispatch center by pushing communications to a more portable environment, with vehicle-based operations moving to handheld units operating on ultra-high frequencies.
After meeting with some 150 emergency responders, law enforcement and military personnel from around the county over the past two weeks, Lee R. Palmer and Mark A. Hoppe of Blue Wing Services Inc., a St. Paul, Minn., communications consultant, presented a preliminary plan that called for the design and implementation of a new system that will involve the procurement of highly coveted frequencies, the construction of antenna towers at 12 to 15 sites in the county at a cost of $150,000 to $200,000 each, millions of dollars in software and hardware costs and an annual $700,000 maintenance fee.
The cost of developing the tower sites does not include the cost of purchasing the land on which they will be built.
Once all equipment is installed, including high-powered microwave dishes to connect the towers, the sites will end up costing $1 million each.
Acting now will prevent an additional cost later, the Blue Wing consultants told legislators when asked about the price of inaction.
Frequencies, which will become the foundation upon which the new system will be built, are in high demand and neighboring counties already are vying for a piece of the spectrum.
Once those frequencies are assigned, it is very rare for them to become available again, Mr. Hoppe said.
Without the frequencies, which must be approved by Canadian as well as U.S. officials, planning for the rest of the system becomes extremely difficult.
Mr. Plummer told legislators that as the countys system ages, it will become more and more difficult to find replacement parts for radios and other components, potentially creating dangerous outages.
The proposed system also would allow the county to move from analog to digital communication and enable increased interoperability among various agencies, including public service employees as well as state and federal officials.
The plan, if adopted, would be implemented through four phases design, site development, connectivity and installation of radio system over three years.
Several other counties in the state have undertaken similar initiatives, according to Mr. Palmer and Mr. Hoppe.
Madison County spent $14 million in 2009, Nassau County spent $42 million in 2005, Onondaga spent $32 million in 2007 and Oswego spent $15 million in 2011 to upgrade their systems.
Though there are state and federal grants that may help defray some of the cost, a large portion of the expense of building the system is expected to be borne by the county.
Perhaps recognizing the sticker shock felt by legislators, the consultants Thursday night tried to ease the blow by pointing out at least one opportunity to recoup some money.
Mr. Hoppe told legislators that the tower infrastructure will last the longest out of all of the components of the system and that space on the towers could be leased for revenue.
A more formal report is expected from the Blue Wing consultants in the fall.
Until then, Mr. Plummer said, he hopes to capitalize on the interest the study has generated among county emergency response personnel to convince legislators just how important the project will be.
My vision ... is to get everybody in the public safety business in Jefferson County on this system, Mr. Plummer said.

With their only home meet of the season on tap this Wednesday at the Carbon Country Club and the upcoming Region 12 meet on Oct. 9, the Carbon High Boys and Girls Cross Country teams are improving their times with each passing meet, according to head coach Telisse Allen.
Allen said both the boys and girls teams have become stronger over the season and are looking to finish strong with the region meet at Spanish Fork in less than three weeks.
For the boys team, Allen said junior Garrett Marsing has been running well despite facing higher class runners at some meets. At the BYU Autumn Classic last weekend, Marsing finished the 5K run in fourth place with a time of 16:38.8. Allen said he was the only runner from Carbon High to participate at the meet.
At two earlier meets at Murray and Uintah, Allen said the girls team finished well including a third place finish at Uintah. With a number of first year runners on the girls squad, Allen said the combined times of all the girls at recent meets compare well to other Region 12 teams including Juab.
A rookie race for first year runners was held at the Murray Invitational and a handful of runners from the boys and girls squads competed.
For the girls in the 5K run, the results included: Giovanna Chiara, 23:13.4, Abbi Powell, 24:00.8, Jenee Martinez, 24:24.1, Alyssa Rassmussen, 26:50.3 and Jessica Tanner, 33:04.0
For the boys, the 5K run results included: Trey Richardson, 20:12.2, Andrew Gagnon, 21:19.3, Chris Shaw, 22:08.7, Will Laursen, 23:23.6, Dallin Quinton, 23:41.4, Tyler Peat, 25:05.2 and Gabe Vandyke, 28:49.3.
Carbon High is getting ready in anticipation of their region home meet this Wednesday at the Carbon Country Club.

Comments about Organic Headband (Women's):
I have this headband in three different colors. I mostly wear them while working out and running errands. It is such a versatile headband that I even fold it over for a less thicker band and wear it while dressed up. I first purchased the headbands when I had long hair but I now still use them with my short hair. My oldest head band is eight months old and still looks great. The colors don't seem to fade at all. They are so easy to wash and dry really fast.

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) -- Mental health is something that Adam Lanza, the gunman in the Connecticut school shootings, apparently struggled with long before Friday's rampage.
The executive director of the Mental Health Foundation in Grand Rapids says mental illness is a surprisingly common issue. Kristy Buck says one in four families is affected by mental illness, and one in five teenagers struggles with it.
Josiah Curtis is part of the statistics of mental health struggle. Police say, last month, Curtis, 25, broke into a Wyoming school garage and took one of the busses across the state. He was arrested arrested in Washtenaw County.
Curtis' parents say he has suffered with mental illness for years. They say it was difficult for them to identify the signs of the illness because of the changes adolescence brings.
"He was such a good drawer," says Diane Curtis, Josiah's mother. "But when he got into high school, his drawings changed. I didn't know that might have been a sign, too. Someone told me that they knew right away there was something wrong when they saw his changing of drawings and I thought, 'Why didn't you tell us?'
"People don't seem to want to say anything. I don't know why mental illness is such a hush hush kind of illness."
"A mental illness is also a physical illness because it is your brain," says Buck. "We need to start decreasing the stigma and start understanding that there is treatment, there is recovery, there is hope. There is even hope for Josiah.
"It starts with asking questions to your doctors and your providers. You need to understand your illness and take control of it before it takes control of you.
"People are walking around and functioning every day with mental illnesses, working side by side with all of us,"says Buck.
Buck says self-medicating with drugs and alcohol can be a sign of mental illness among teenagers. Children who are bullied may also struggle with mental disorders.

BOONVILLE Authorities say theyve charged a 34-year-old man with starting a fire last week that destroyed the apartment building where he lived and displaced more than two dozen people.
Boonville police said David Geer was arrested Monday and charged with arson.
Officials said Mr. Geer used a cigarette to set fire to a mattress in his apartment early last Thursday morning, then prevented his neighbors from entering to extinguish the flames.
The fire destroyed the more than 100-year-old building and damaged an adjoining building housing more apartments. None of the 29 tenants in the two buildings was injured.
Mr. Geer was released after posting $5,000 bail.

|Jason Llewelyn examines the packaging that contained explosives spilled on U.S. Highway 6 while he contacts the manufacturer of the materials. Law enforcement and HAZMAT investigators determined that the detonators and non-electric cable were lost off a semi-truck transporting the materials from Moab to Uintah County.
A box of detonators and non-electric cords that apparently fell off a transport truck on U.S. Highway 6 between Wellington and Price created a potentially dangerous situation early Tuesday.
The box of explosive devices ended up costing emergency crews almost a day to secure and clean up the scene. The operation also entailed calling in the Utah County Sheriff's Office bomb squad.
The initial report that the materials were in the westbound lane of U.S. 6 north of the Church of Christ came into the dispatch center at 7 a.m. on Sept. 5. The caller said he saw materials thrown from a pickup truck while he was taking his wife to work. The man said he stopped to move the materials off the road and realized what they were so he called authorities.
First on the scene was the Carbon County Sheriff's Office and Wellington city police.The law enforcement authyorities examined the materials and contacted Jason Llewelyn, the county's HAZMAT director.
After arriving at the incident scene, Llewelyn called in the HAZMAT crew and equipment. The HAZMAT director then evaluated the situation for the dangers it posed to passersby and nearby homes.
Soon, a half dozen HAZMAT crew members, the Utah Highway Patrol, Wellington and Price fire personnel as well as additional police officers from around the county responded to the incident.
The right lane of the highway was closed to traffic and nearby residents were warned not to come out of their homes until the situation was cleared.
As the HAZMAT crews and law enforcement personnel investigated the scene, they found that there was at least one box of the explosive materials on the road.
The detonator cord was strewn along the highway for about a half a block. Orange in color, the material contains explosives because it is used as the fuse for blasting operations. Once activated, the fuse moves at between 24,000 and 30,000 feet per second.
The crews found the container of the materials and Llewelyn contacted the company that manufactures and distributes the explosives.
The company, Dyno Nobel, is based in Salt Lake and has a shipping warehouse in Moab.
|Price Fire Chief Paul Bedont and Helper Police Officer Kevin Saccomano, both members of the Carbon County HAZMAT team, look over detonator cords that spilled on U.S. Highway 6 between Price and Wellington. The two boxes of detonators and non-electric detonator line were ultimately determined to have been lost off a semi truck that was transporting them from Moab to Uintah County.
Company representatives told Llewelyn that the explosives in question were being shipped from Moab to the Ouray quarry in Uintah County.
The semi-tractor trailer carrying the particular box had reportedly left Moab at 4 a.m. on Tuesday.
Authorities were puzzled because the initial reports indicated that the materials came out of a pickup, yet the explosives on the side of the road were supposed to be in the semi-truck.
"After we investigated, we found that a door to the compartment where the explosives are in the semi was not secured and it must have swung open and two boxes fell out," explained the HAZMAT director on Wednesday morning.
"The original witness said he was sure the boxes were thrown from a pickup. But it was still dark that early in the monring and we think the truck just hit one of the boxes and threw it into the air, so it appeared that way," added Llewelyn.
As HAZMAT personnel examined the explosive devices, the crew members found that the majority of the material was undamaged.
But some of the detonators had been run over and flattened by vehicles traveling on U.S. 6. Crews were sent out to search about a mile on each side of the road to make sure that no other boxes of the explosives or stragglers of the original spill were present. Those crews found nothing more.
According to authorities, these devices are relatively safe and can only be set off by sparks. However, considering they were on the roadway and could be subjected to such extreme conditions, there was great concern. In addition, while the chances of the devices exploding were small, the county decided that cleaning them up themselves would not be a good or safe idea. At that point Lewellyn called in the Utah County Sheriff's bomb squad.
The manufacturing company also sent a safety representative to the scene to investigate and observe.
The Utah County bomb squad showed up at the scene about 10:30 a.m. Meanwhile authorities had blocked off both the lanes headed north on Highway 6 and had turned the center turn lane into the lane in which northbound traffic could travel.
An ambulance was called, just in case there was an injury to the crew cleaning up the mess. At about 11 a.m. the bomb squad started to cut the detonators from the cords and place them in a special trailer designed to haul explosives. They bundled the undamaged detonators 10 into a bundle and then removed the damaged ones separately. They also cleaned up the cord that was along side the road as well.
The explosive devices were then transported to the Carbon County landfill where a trench had been prepared to place them in for detonation and disposal. The crew then blew the materials up. The road was cleaned up and reopened by about 1 p.m. and the materials were detonated sometime between 1:30 and 2 p.m.
"In the end we found that two boxes had fallen out of the semi," said Lewellyn. "We recovered 120 detonators and 1500 feet of cord, exactly what would have been packed in two containers."
This incident highlights the many hazardous materials that flow through the county each day and follows a number of incidents that have occurred in the last year along the corridor, including the blast in Red Narrows last August and a gas truck explosion that killed the driver in that same place earlier this year.
In addition the problem that occurred on Tuesday morning follows up another incident early last spring when a truck lost its trailer filled with explosive material a few miles down Highway 6 from Tuesday's situation. The semi trailer came off as the truck tried to cross over the highway from Walker's Truck Stop near Soldier Creek Road. That incident closed down the highway for many hours in both directions until the trailer and its contents could be moved safely.

Did anybody here tried to downgrade to 1.03.10 and then had bad issues?
What issues you had with downgrade to 1.03.10?
I am running 1.03.10. I upgraded it from out-of-box version (can't remember which).
I am using it to play MKVs, 1080p and 720p, from WinXP share, 1Gb wired, and everything plays perfectly - no stuttering, no hangs, no problems at all.
So, I can say that for the only puspose playing the mkv files, the WDTV Live SMB v1.03.10 is perfect.
In fact, my only complaint is not-persistent RGB High Colorspace setting. Every time I turn on WDTV or TV, I have to:
Setup --> Audio/Video Output --> Video Output --> HDMI
--> Display resolution: Auto
--> Colorspace: RGB High
--> Match video framerate: On
Only in rare cases, every some files, Match frame rate fails to match - in that case, set it manually.
The way it is written in the KB article implies that there is an issue with the downgrade process and not with the firmware itself (minus the part that performs the downgrade).
Yes, I'd read that, but I am asking what actually could go wrong - will the WDTV be "bricked"?
Can it be then upgraded again to undo the "damage"?
Nobody never did it? Maybe somebody did it and then he/she had to return it to shop?
No one knows. Other people have done it with no issue.
And if something's "BRICKED," then no, you cannot fix it. It's a brick.
I've downgraded to 1.03.10 and the only thing I see is that the "Match Framerate" option is missing. So now I'm back on 1.06 firmware. But this is also a no go for me. Video_ts or video-iso stutter every 20-25 minutes for a couple seconds and there's no way I can play the "Bird scene" stutterfree. I play al media from usb2 and usb3 external hd's.
01-23-2012 11:34 PM - edited 01-23-2012 11:34 PM
What bird scene? The bird scene files I have downloaded range from 20-90 mbit (SMP stuttering starts at 50).
@Tech Flaws.
When I take the Planet Earth Bird Scene in Bitrate Viewer I get following info:
Bitrate in seconds max 33 but in biterate in frames max 89.
Like I said, no matter how i set up the SMP I can't play it stutterfree.

As I said, I am running 1.03.10, and I can tell you that "Match Video Framerate" option is present. I am using that option all the time.
Well I'm back on 1.03.10. Did the following steps:
- Reset to factory defaults (1.06)
- Skip setup
- Rolled back to 1.03.10
- Skip setup
- reset to factory defaults
- setup
And guess what .... I've got the "Match videoframe" option but more important I can play the birdscene (Planet Earth part 1) stutterfree with the option on or off. So I think this time the rollback went flawless.
Where i can get the 1.03.10 firmware for WDTV live Streaming??

Gerald asked me for a hat! Since he never, ever asks me for knitting (but for the slippers) of course I agreed to knit him a hat. He was very specific about the pattern (same as Jerry's hat) and the color ("do not start until I see the yarn").
The pattern is the Wood Hollow Hat from Kirsten Kapur. I love it so much; it's fun to knit and very intuitive. Gerald chose his favorite color – blue – in a beautiful shade of Cascade 220 that I had in my stash. If there was ever a wool yarn that could be described as "denim" this would be it. I love the 220 Heathers.
Jerry's hat was knit on a US 5 needle, and with no adjustments to the pattern, it is a perfect fit. Because Gerald's head is bigger, I meant to cast on with a 6, but couldn't find a 6. So I grabbed a size 7 needle and as far as I can tell (without having knit a swatch) it's going to fit him perfectly.
I'm doing the cables, even the small ones, without a cable needle. I feel very, very smart when I cable without a cable needle.
The behind-the-scenes work on the blog is progressing, if slowly. I worked on one particular page on Saturday – ALL DAY – and there's some glitch that I don't understand and it is driving me absolutely nutso. So instead of working on the blog, I've decided instead to work on my "sewing area". I wasn't going to post a "before" picture here because it is truly awful. But then I decided there would be a strong impetus to show you the "after" photo if I posted the embarrassing "before" photo. So here it is, the corner of my bedroom where sewing (and knitting) supplies are…stored.
Although you can barely tell, there is a long table where all that stuff is piled. I've already removed enough stuff from the table to take the first picture that appears in this post, so I'm making progress. Today I'm going to make the table shorter by slicing it in half with my circular saw. Tomorrow I'm taking a road trip to IKEA to buy a shelf and other organizy things. And by Wednesday it'll be done! (pray for me)
