Snow + Ice Plan
When there is a chance of snow and ice, the City prepares to enact its Snow and Ice Plan. The goals of the plan are to reduce life threatening and injury producing conditions and reduce interruption to commerce and damage to property. The Plan is also committed to limiting the environmental impacts associated with removing snow and ice.
When there is snow, sleet, ice, or other winter weather event, the City of Portland's top priority is safety. Transportation crews will do their best to minimize the inconvenience to residents and businesses and, if necessary, work around the clock.
Read a two-page backgrounder about the Snow and Ice Plan
Service areas
The Portland Plow Map shows the City's snow and ice routes and Traction Advisory Areas. The City has approximately 4,700 miles of streets, of which 1,300 miles are arterials, and of those, approximately 518 miles are bus snow routes. In all, the City's network includes plowing and sanding 1,700 miles of lanes on those 518 miles of streets (which represents the distance traveled from Seattle to San Diego).
Because winter storms are so rare in our area, the City has a limited fleet of vehicles for performing these services. They are focused on the higher priority facilities and generally follow TriMet's bus snow routes. The Snow and Ice Plan establishes four service priorities:
A. Pre-identified hazard areas and critical locations (mostly bridges, overpasses, and critical intersections);
B. Arterials and major transit routes considered to be a minimum network that must be kept open to provide a transportation system connecting hospitals, Police and Fire stations, rescue unit locations, schools, if open, and major park-and-ride transit lots;
C. Additional arterials with a high daily traffic count, and major collector streets completing a network that connects major residential areas and local commercial districts; and
D. Neighborhood residential streets providing access to residential homes and businesses, and Central Business District crosswalks, bridge walks, stairways, and other selected locations.
Neighborhood residential streets are not plowed and sanded during snow and ice events, and crews cannot safely get plow trucks up and down many steep and narrow side streets in the hills. The City does not have the equipment and personnel to provide anti-icing, de-icing, sanding, plowing, and snow removal services on neighborhood streets.
Under all circumstances, major routes are routinely patrolled during adverse weather and treated as necessary to keep them open.
Snow removal on sidewalks and driveways is the responsibility of the property owner.
Traction advisory areas
Traction Advisory Areas are particular locations like steep hills, bridges, and critical locations on both the west and east sides of the city that are exposed to the elements and tend to freeze first. They're slick spots in winter weather.
Because of their hazardous and changing conditions in winter weather, the Traction Advisory Areas warrant extra caution and chains or studded tires if you choose to drive on these streets, hills, and bridges.
Maintenance Operations has authority to close streets or require traction devices. During major events, traction devices are usually required for West Burnside Street and Sam Jackson Road. Other known hazard areas and critical locations during the winter include:
- Bridges and overpasses that are exposed and tend to freeze first
- West Hills - NW Cornell Road, West Burnside Street, Sam Jackson Road, NW Skyline Boulevard, Germantown Road, SW Hamilton Street, SW Bancroft Street
- East Side - Mt. Scott, Mt. Tabor, Rocky Butte, SE Flavel, Marine Drive
- Council Crest is the highest point in the metro area at 1,073 feet above sea level
- Mt. Scott is 1,050 feet above sea level
- Mt. Tabor is 641.30 feet above sea level
- Powell Butte is 620 feet above sea level
- Rocky Butte is 609.30 feet above sea level
- Kelly Butte is 590 feet above sea level
Staffing and equipment
During a major snow and ice event, Maintenance Operations crews switch to 12-hour shifts to ensure 24-hour coverage. Truck drivers, large equipment operators, and other personnel staff equipment and maintain the stockpiles in the yards.
A total of 55 large dump trucks are fitted with snowplows and sand spreaders to clear streets, bridges, and overpasses of snow and ice. These trucks are used every day for filling potholes and carrying materials to and from work sites for paving, sidewalk repair and other tasks. The full fleet includes an additional 5 anti-icing trucks, 10 service trucks, 5 big-wheel loaders, 2 backhoes, 1 road grader, 2 emergency trucks, 2 street closure trucks, and 2 fuel trucks.
Road treatments
Winter road conditions are affected by a number of weather factors. Crews monitor temperatures of the air, road surfaces, and the ground, wind data, relative humidity, dew point, visibility, and precipitation. Crews also monitor specific roadway conditions all around the city.
Road treatments include application of anti-icing and de-icing chemical, sanding, plowing, limited snow removal, and street closures. Rock salt is not used because of environmental concerns. It is corrosive to our bridges and harmful to fish and wildlife in our rivers and streams.
The City owns five trucks for anti-icing and de-icing streets, bridges, and overpasses. The chemical used is calcium magnesium acetate (CMA), the most environmentally-friendly effective treatment there is. Magnesium chloride is used in temperatures below 17 degrees to increase the effectiveness of the de-icing chemical and to prevent sand from freezing in trucks.
Anti-icing is normally carried out after the evening peak traffic period or before the morning rush because frost does not usually affect the road surface until late evenings or early mornings.
Read a two-page backgrounder on why the City doesn't use salt.
Arterial streets are plowed first during a storm. Those are the major streets leading toward downtown Portland in the early morning and away from downtown in the afternoon. Non-arterial streets are plowed only when the arterial streets are cleared. Plan your route accordingly.
A sanding truck with a plow is typically allocated to the West Hills and another to the East side, to be used as necessary.
Crews use snowplows when snow begins to accumulate at a depth of one inch or more on the street surface.
Streets of grades over 14% are not able to be treated because such an operation would endanger crews and equipment.
Post-storm cleanup
After each storm, the streets on the snow and ice routes are mechanically swept. Portland performs street sweeping as soon as possible after the end of a storm event to try to minimize the amount of sand entering the drainage system. Portland typically recovers and recycles 60-75% of the total sand that is applied to streets in a snow and ice event.
Sidewalks, driveways, and overhead hazards
Property owners are responsible for their sidewalks and driveways, including the removal of snow, ice, slippery leaves, and other debris. By City Code, property owners are liable for personal injury and property damage caused by snow, ice, and other debris on sidewalks.
As soon as possible, clear your sidewalks and driveways across pedestrian paths of snow and ice, leaves, and debris after a snow event. Maintain at least a three-foot-wide path so pedestrians and transit users have a safe place to walk. Property owners are also responsible for advising pedestrians of any danger of falling snow or ice from their buildings. Please make arrangements to post an advisory (sign or sandwich board) and eliminate the hazard.
As the snow plowing operation proceeds, a snow berm develops. It is impossible to plow without leaving a berm. Individual property owners are responsible for clearing away the snow berm from driveways and entrances. Pile shoveled snow where it can be absorbed into the ground, not on the street and public right-of-way.
Businesses hiring contractors to remove snow from lots should store the snow on your property, not dump it on the street and public right-of-way.

The Price City Council voted to accept the annual independent auditors' report of basic financial statements in a Jan. 12 public meeting.
The report included financial records of the Price Municipal Corporation for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004.
City assets decreased $1.5 million from fiscal year 2003: $274,513 in business-type activities and $1,236,662 in government activities.
Government activity expenditures exceeded revenue by $2.3 million.
Last year, expenses were $2.2 million more than revenue.
Government revenue increased 3.1 percent, while Price city expenses grew 3.4 percent.
Significant sources of revenue included sales tax, rising 6.2 percent; a transfer from the electric fund to general fund of $1.2 million; property tax, which increased 4.4 percent; and highway taxes.
Areas of most spending included general government, public safety, highways and public improvements and parks and recreation.
Business-type activities generated $7.2 million in revenue, increasing 3.9 percent from 2003.
Spending saw an increase of 8.3 percent, totaling $6.5 million, due mostly to personnel costs, daily operations and maintenance.
Business-type funds include revenues generated through services provided to residents and businesses, such as electricity and other utilities.
After transfers, both government activities and business-type activities incurred deficits: $1,256,205 in government activities, $254,970 in business-like activities.
Accountants Smuin, Rich and Marsing reviewed the city's financial records, the firm issued an independent opinion that the records were in order and complied with generally accepted accounting practices and "present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of [activities and funds of] Price Municipal Corporation."
While Price's population continued to decrease, as it has for the past 10 years, unemployment is on the decline in the city and county.
In third quarter 2004, the unemployment in the county was 5.6 percent, declining for the sixth consecutive quarter.
Unemployment remains higher than the state average of 4.8 percent.
The report suggested stronger economics ahead, citing increased construction activity, gross taxable sales and plans to reopen area coal mines.
While declines in employment occurred in both goods and service producing industries in second quarter 2004, there was positive growth in information, private education, health services and leisure and hospitality.
Building permit valuation increased 25 percent in the second quarter, suggesting growth in construction.
Increases occurred in new residential construction and remodeling projects. New residential construction in Price was up 35 percent in third quarter.
Residential and non-residential remodeling almost doubled during the fiscal year.
Acting on unrelated items on last Wednesday's agenda, Price City Council approved three home occupied businesses and five conditional use permits, one of which approved the remodeling of the Silvagni Building for Discovery phone center at 6 East Main Street. The proposed relocation of the phone center would bring 77 jobs in the downtown area.
"That's a good thing for our community," said Jeanne McEvoy, who moved to approve the permit. Employees at the new facility would be required to use off-street public parking. Tony Basso has purchased space for 10 additional parking stalls behind the Newhouse Hotel to accommodate the increased parking demand. McEvoy explained that the Planning and Zoning Commission agreed that there is enough parking in the vicinity to accommodate increased demand and recommended the approval of the permit.
City council members also heard a claim for damages from Hampton McArthur and voted to address the matter in two weeks pending further review. McArthur is seeking compensation for costs of repairing a city sewer main which allegedly sank, causing a clog in the line from his home.
Price City Redevelopment Agency voted to approve funding for the David Anderson building at 49 North 500 East. Council member Stephen Denison expressed concern that the project was not a restoration effort and would not qualify for the full $15,000 requested. The project is estimated to cost $48,000, with the balance coming from Anderson's personal funds.

Before we get into the guts of today's story, we must first ask your forgiveness for the abbreviation of "little black dress" in the title. We loathe the nerdy-chill inducing, three-letter phrase tremendously, but sometimes you just don't have the room to spell the whole thing out. Grousing complete, now we shall move forward and address that much beloved item-the petite noire frock.
Thankfully, it's not particularly difficult to build an outfit around a little black dress. In fact, the most complicated part of wearing said item is simply picking one out! We suggest selecting a dress with interesting details like an usual hemline or unexpected texture as this will elevate even a subtle style. A few of our favorite stylephiles have recently demonstrated how to do just this, so we gathered illustrative examples of their choices.
Rachel Bilson picked a simple, sleeveless, vintage Givenchy dress for a cocktail party celebrating the adored shoe designer, Christian Louboutin. The slightly shorter hemline balances the austerity of the cut and we also dig the pockets-they're a modern touch. Sienna Miller selected an ebony dress with gorgeous lines for the London premiere of Interview. Her Alexander McQueen choice is wholly chic, from the asymmetrical seaming to the banded hem. Theodora Richards went for a very New York sort of sexy androgyny when she attended a screening of I'm Not There. Maybe it's just us, but it sort of looks like she's wearing a man's jacket with a plunging neckline, in a good way, of course.
Speaking of New York, one of the city's socialites, the lovely Olivia Palermo, smartly accessorized her dress with a studded belt and snug jacket for a Chopard party (both are great additions that don't overwhelm the outfit). Diane Kruger is always impeccable turned out on the red carpet, as she showed at the Conde Nast/Movies Rock event this month. The detail work on her Balmain dress (from the Spring 08 collection) turns the ordinary strapless shape into something extraordinary. Last, but certainly not least, is true fashion original, Erin Wasson. She was a stunner in Lanvin (and Proenza Schouler shoes) at the Karl Lagerfeld Greek Revival Exhibition. Note the sheer sleeves, as transparency is a big trend this coming spring.
Finally, for your inspection we have a roundup of some totally non-standard, little black dresses. We love looking at the pricey, but perfect, Vivienne Westwood Red Label Jagged Hem Dress ($850). It's a feat of tailoring and totally sublime. Cult Australian label sass & bide always has smart and edgy wares an their I Knew You Mini Dress ($438) is a bold choice. Jenni Kayne also has a sophisticated take on the look with her Single Strap Dress ($395).

|MR. JACKSON, IF YOU'RE NASTY: The U.S. Mint will honor four presidents in 2008.
Portland banks on Monday started issuing dollar coins featuring the United States' seventh president, Andrew Jackson. The move is part of a pilot program by the U.S. Mint to wean Americans off paper bills.
But in choosing Jackson for the honor—and Portland as one of its four test cities—the U.S. Mint has angered some local Native Americans. For them, Jackson is remembered not for his democratic ideals but for spearheading the 1830 Indian Removal Act.
The resulting Trail of Tears forced 15,000 members of the Cherokee Nation west to arid Oklahoma. An estimated 4,000 Native Americans died of starvation, disease and exhaustion during the trek.
"I bet Hitler had coins with his picture on them, too," says Tabitha Whitefoot, assistant director of Portland State University's Native American Center.
U.S. Mint spokesman Michael White touts the environmental benefits of the 1.4 million $1 Jackson coins now going into circulation in Portland; Austin, Texas; Charlotte, N.C.; and Grand Rapids, Mich. He says they will last 30 years, compared with paper bills that last 21 months.
Asked about Native Americans' anger at commemorating Jackson again (he's appeared on the $20 bill since 1928), White sidesteps the question. "Beginning in 2009, the United States Mint will mint and issue $1 coins featuring designs celebrating contributions made by Indian tribes," he says.
But Debra Muller, a Potawatomi/Ottawa Native American in Grand Rapids and chairwoman of the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi, is more direct. "Members of the Native American population could not have been consulted," she says.
Don't expect any local protests, however. "I am going to give my time and energy to things that have a chance at being successful," PSU's Whitefoot says. She would rather put her time into projects like the Native American Graves and Repatriation Act and Native American child welfare programs, she says.
But it's not just Native Americans who object to honoring Jackson once more.
During his bid this spring to become Oregon's Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate, local activist Steve Novick said Sitting Bull should replace Jackson on the $20 bill (see "Trail Mix," WW, March 26, 2008). "Lionization of Jackson is an insult to Native Americans," Novick says.
FACT: According to the U.S. Census, Portland's Native American population is 5,908. The Native American Youth and Family Center says that's a gross underestimate and puts the figure for the Portland area at 38,000.

MORRISTOWN - The former United Methodist Church building, 504 Gouverneur St., may be purchased by the Catholic Church.
Advertised for $130,000 the Morristown Central School District had previously expressed an interest in the building as a space for after school and community events.
The district currently uses the churchs parking lot for faculty and staff and some members of the board of education were concerned that their ability to continuing using the spaces could be jeopardized if the building is sold.
However, due to the cost of the building and fears that it would be prohibitively expensive to renovate, the district backed out of negotiates last month.
But St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 506 Gouverneur St., may take ownership of the building.
Father Jay Seymour, pastor at the church, said, Were looking at the cost of renovating that.
Although he acknowledged the church is interested in the property, Fr. Seymour said Its kind of premature at this point. We dont have enough information now to move forward.
Fr. Seymour said they are considering using the former Methodist Church as a parish center alternative.
Currently St. Johns has a parish center located at the intersection of Morris and Ann Street that has a defunct gymnasium on the back.
Fr. Seymour said, compared to the current parish center, the Methodist Church would be more suitable for large perish gatherings.
The building could also be used as a youth center, Fr. Seymour said, and would be ideal for religious classes.
As for the concerns of the school district Fr. Seymour said they would speak with them about parking if they took further steps to secure the building.
We have made no offer [on the building], Fr. Seymour said.
Rev. Thomas A. Clemow, property management consultant for the United Methodist Church, said in an email that the property is being actively marketed but would not comment on negotiations with the Catholic Church.
The Methodist Church vacated the building in August.

Cardo Community web platform for social features, device setting and software updates:
Q: I have purchased the SRC-System™ and now want to connect it to my intercom system which is not an SRC-System™ - what should I watch out for?
A: Unfortunately we cannot provide you with any information on installing non-Schuberth systems.
Q: Is the SRC-System™ supplied already pre-installed in the helmet?
A: No. Schuberth helmets are not equipped with the SRC-System™ ex works. The SRC-System™ is offered only as an optional accessory by specialised dealers.
Q: Who installs the SRC-System™ in the helmet?
A: The SRC-System™ is installed according to the "plug and play principle" and can be installed in a very short time by any Schuberth customer. Please follow the installation instructions provided for this purpose in the manual.
Q: With which helmets is the SRC-System™ compatible?
A: The SRC-System™ is currently compatible with the helmets S2 Sport, S2, C3 Pro, C3 Lady, C3, C3 Basic, C2 and Concept.
Q: The SRC-System™ does not fit into my Schuberth helmet?
A: The SRC-System™ is offered in two sizes for the S2, Sport, S2, C3 Pro, C3 Lady, C3 and C3 Basic in accordance with the two helmet shells with the size ranges 50 – 59 and 60 – 65. Check whether the SRC-System™ matches the size of your helmet.
Q: Will the size of my helmet change when the SRC-System™ is installed?
A: No, the SRC-System™ has been designed to ensure maximum comfort. However, bear in mind that the acoustic collar contains a great deal of electronic components and is therefore rather fuller than the conventional acoustic collar. As a result you may feel a difference when you put on or remove your helmet.
Tip: If you routinely enlarge the helmet opening by forcing the straps apart when you put on or remove your helmet, the process will gradually feel smoother. In the course of time the stiffness of the acoustic collar will also be reduced.

A: At full load and under normal environmental conditions (average temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, average speed and volume) the SRC-System™ can operate for up to ten hours and can remain on stand-by for up to six days.
Full load here means that during this period Bluetooth® signals can be constantly transferred to and from the SRC-System™ and can be replayed by the latter. If no constant Bluetooth® transmission takes place, e.g. if no music is played, the battery's operating time can be extended.
Q: Is there an optical display to show the battery's charge condition?
A: Yes. Hold down the "Lautstärketaste AUF" (Volume UP) button for at least three seconds.
Q: Can I replace the battery?
A: No. You cannot replace the battery yourself. Please contact your dealer.
Caution: Never open the SRC-System™ yourself, but always hand your SRC-System™ over to a specialised dealer who is authorised to do so. If you open the system yourself and/or damage the seal, the guarantee will become invalid.
Q: May I open the zip on the SRC-System™?
A: No. You may not open the zip yourself, and it is sealed.
Caution: Never open the SRC-System™ yourself, but always hand your SRC-System™ over to a specialised dealer who is authorised to do so. If you open the system yourself and/or damage the seal, the guarantee will become invalid.
Q: What is Bluetooth®?

A: As soon as you have registered at www.schuberth.com/schuberth-plus, Schuberth GmbH will inform you of any new firmware updates. This enables you to keep your SRC-System™ constantly up to date.
Q: How does the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) work?
A: The AGC is based on the internal helmet noise measured by the SRC-System™. Since the internal noise increases with the speed, the volume is indirectly controlled by the speed.
Q: What devices can be connected to the SRC-System™?
A: Thanks to the MDC technology the SRC-System™ offers the following parallel connection options: Intercom with up to three SRC-Systems™, each with one of the following Bluetooth® devices:

A: The battery loading time is 3 hours.
Q: What is the maximum range between two SRC-Systems™?
A: The maximum range between two SRC-Systems™ for the C3 Basic, C3, C2 and Concept depends on the nature of the road and terrain, and also on the traffic conditions. Under ideal conditions it is 300 metres.
The maximum range between two SRC-Systems™ for the C3 Pro, S2 Sport and S2 depends on the nature of the road and terrain, and also on the traffic conditions. Under ideal conditions it is 700 metres.
Q: Do SRC-Systems™ which have been connected need to be reconnected to each other after the maximum range has been exceeded?
A: No. SRC-Systems™ which have been connected to each other are automatically linked to each other again as soon as the range makes this technically feasible.
Q: During an active intercom connection, can everyone receive the instructions of the navigation system and hear music?
A: No. Only the master can receive instructions and music data.
Q: What mobile phones can I attach to the SRC-System™?
A: Basically almost all the current Bluetooth® mobile phones which have at least Bluetooth® Version 1.1 can be connected to the SRC-System™.
Caution: Not all mobile phone manufacturers keep consistently to the Bluetooth® standards.
Consequently it cannot be guaranteed that the SRC-System™ will be compatible with every Bluetooth® mobile phone which is available on the market.
Mobile phones which do not have Bluetooth® capability are not supported by the SRC-System™.
Q: When I am linked to other bikers in intercom mode, can my telephone calls be overheard?
A: No, that is not possible. During the telephone call the intercom connection to other bikers is interrupted and the SRC-System™ is connected to the mobile phone. As soon as the telephone call is finished, the connection to the other connected SRC-Systems™ is automatically set up again.
Caution: When you open an intercom connection during the telephone call using channel button "A" or "B", a three party service is established.
Q: When I connect up to my Bluetooth® mobile phone, a password for the SRC-System™ is requested. What is the password?
A: The Bluetooth® password for the SRC-System™ is 0000.
Q: Is the iPhone compatible with the SRC-System™?
A: Yes. Please take note of the current iPhone software updates.
Q: What GPS navigation devices can I connect to the SRC-System™?
A: Basically you can connect all GPS navigation devices which support Bluetooth® 1.1 (e.g. all Garmin Zumo devices, the TomTom Rider 2, the TomTom Urban Rider and all BMW navigation devices).
Q: Is the SRC-System™ compatible with the Garmin Zumo 660?
A: Yes.
Q: Can I connect a navigation device and a radio at the same time?
A: No, only one Bluetooth® terminal can be connected at a time.
Q: With which navigation devices and Bluetooth® systems is the SRC-System™ compatible?
A: The SRC-System™ is compatible with all Garmin Zumo devices, the TomTom Rider 2, the TomTom Urban Rider, all BMW navigation devices and the Cardo Scala Rider systems.
Q: Can a navigation device without a Bluetooth® interface be connected to the SRC-System™?
A: Yes, this is possible via the audio input if the navigation device has an audio output.
Q: What is RDS?
A: RDS (Radio Data System) automatically searches for the strongest transmitter for the frequency you select. This guarantees optimum reception even at high speeds without you having to adjust the frequency manually.
Q: Can I also receive traffic information with the SRC-System™?
A: Naturally you can also receive traffic information with the normal radio programme. For this purpose ensure that you have selected a radio channel which offers traffic news. The SRC-System™ does not support automatic traffic radio frequency identification such as TMC.
Q: What devices can be connected to the SRC-System™?
A: Thanks to the MDC (Multiple Device Connectivity) technology the SRC-System™ offers the following parallel connection options: Intercom with up to two SRC-Systems™, each with one of the following Bluetooth® devices: mobile phone (either directly or via a GPS navigation device)
Q: Which devices are given priority when priorities are assigned?
A: Priorities are assigned as follows:
Q: Is the A2DP profile supported by the SRC-System™?
A: Yes. The A2DP profile is supported by the SRC-System™. Audio signals are therefore converted to hi-fi quality.
Q: Can I connect a navigation device and a radio at the same time?
A: No, only one Bluetooth® terminal can be connected at a time.
Q: With which navigation devices and Bluetooth® systems is the SRC-System™ compatible?
A: The SRC-System™ is compatible with the navigation devices Garmin Zumo 550 and 660, TomTom Rider II and the Cardo Scala Rider systems.
Q: I receive the message that the software has not passed the Windows® Logo Test.
Confirm this message by clicking on "Continue Anyway".
Q: The wizard for searching for new hardware and the dialog window for the Windows Logo Test appear simultaneously while I install the software.
Ignore the hardware wizard and click on "Continue Anyway" in the hardware installation window. The hardware wizard then terminates automatically.
Q: I use Windows® Vista or Windows® 7 and receive the information: "This option is only available for users with administrator's privileges".
Administrator privileges are required to install the drivers for Windows® Vista and Windows® 7. Close the application and right-click on the "SRCSsetup" icon.
Choose the "Run as administrator" option and confirm by clicking on "Allow".
Q: I followed the instructions in the dialog box, but nothing happens.
First of all disconnect the USB link between the SRCS headset and your PC. Then set it up again. Follow the instructions above. Check the connection between your PC's USB port and the SRC-System headset. If you can find nothing wrong on your PC, we recommend you perform the update on another PC.
Q: I receive the message that I should update the drivers.
Click on "Continue Anyway" and follow the instructions.
Q: The "SRCS Upgrades" software no longer works.
Close all windows of the "SRCS Upgrades" software and restart the program.
Q: Why does it take so long to update my installed software?
The speed of the update procedure is largely dependent on the speed of your internet connection, but as a rule this procedure takes no more than five minutes.
Q: While the update is being transferred to the SRC-System one of the "general fault" messages appears and I can no longer switch on the SRC-System.
This error can be caused by a faulty driver or USB port. When this error occurs the update is not executed in full and the previous software is "deleted". You can re-establish the functional integrity of the SRC-System by simply pressing "Reinstate last version". If a "general fault" is once again displayed, we recommend you perform the update on another PC.
Q: Before the update is transferred to the SRC-System the message "This SRC-system cannot be re-programmed" appears and the SRC-System software 1.50 is displayed.
There can be several reasons for this version being displayed, e.g. a faulty driver or USB port. We recommend you perform the update on another PC.
Q: How do I perform a master reset?
Q: The update stops at 99%. What should I do?
The software checks the transferred data for c. 100 seconds. Please wait until the countdown has been completed and follow the instructions issued by the program.
Q: The SRC-System simply switches itself off while the radio is operating.
Please update your SRC-System to software version 3.0. This will solve the problem.
If you have any reason to complain, please contact your dealer.

MASSENA A 17-year-old Massena boy drowned Tuesday night in the Grasse River.
Several agencies, including the Massena Rescue Squads dive team, were dispatched to a water rescue situation shortly after 6 p.m. Tuesday in the Grasse River area behind Calvary Cemetery, where Donald Bemis drowned.
Van W. Alexander, a guidance counselor at the Massena Central School Districts Delta School of Choice, where the teen was a student, met with the boys mother Wednesday morning.
According to Mr. Alexander, Mr. Bemis had been swimming in the Grasse River behind the cemetery with three other friends. The boys attempted to rescue him but were unable to do so. Names of the three boys were not given.
Massena Rescue Squad President Eric D. Duchscherer said bystanders on the shore of the river said they had an additional person with their group who went missing in the water.
It was at that point that we activated our dive team and put our Zodiac boat in the water, Mr. Duchscherer said.
The team had been in the water for nearly a half hour when it recovered the victim by the shoreline.
When rescue squad members started resuscitation efforts, they were uncertain how long the teen had been in the cold water.
The resuscitation efforts continued while he was taken to Massena Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Multiple posts mourning Mr. Bemis on a Facebook page for Delta School of Choice called Save Delta started appearing at 10:32 p.m. Tuesday.
Today. Delta school of choice lost an amazing person, Aliciamarie Harvey posted. He was the kindest soul anyone would meet. Im gonna miss walking by him in school and saying sup Donald and him smiling at me.

I am confused about the placement of commas in reference to strong (independent) and weak (dependent) clauses. I was under the impression that if a weak clause follows a strong clause, a comma is not needed to separate them.
For example (also from my manuscript):
1) Agnes gazed at her, but did not speak.
2) She ate no lunch but drank some juice and broth.
I don't understand why the first sentence should have a comma before the dependent clause, but the second sentence should not.

Neither of these sentences has a dependent clause. Remember, a dependent clause must have both a subject and a verb, yet not express a complete idea.

PENSACOLA, Fla. - Naval Education and Training Command (NETC) recently recognized its top Sailor during an awards ceremony aboard Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola at the National Naval Aviation Museum Feb. 28.
Aviation Electronics Technicians 1st Class (AW/NAC) Adam Gladding, from Parishville was selected NETCs 2012 Sailor of the Year (SOY).
Gladding is a Recruit Division Commander (RDC) at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. and was the representative from the Naval Service Training Command, which is responsible for accession training. The 11-year veteran was chosen from nearly 7,000 Sailors throughout the NETC domain. He has been teaching civilians how to become Sailors as an RDC for almost three years. Off duty he enjoys dog training, flying remote control helicopters, and living a healthy lifestyle.
The majority of this honor goes to the recruits I have trained. They inspire me to motivate them and to want to succeed that much more in life, Gladding said. My role model is my mother. How she raised three boys, while working and going to college at the same time, still amazes me to this day. If it wasnt for her instilling the motivation, standards, dedication, and morals I have, I wouldnt be half the person I am today.
Gladding said there is a great need for Sailors serving in the fleet to become instructors or recruit division commanders.
Its important for top-notch Sailors and Marines to become instructors. They can share their knowledge, experience, and show junior Sailors and Marines what it takes to be a leader, he said. Ive always prided myself on being an instructor, but what sets this job apart is the material. I wanted to have the opportunity to train the raw product to see the first initial impact.
He suggests to those considering instructor duty or wanting to make a difference, to remember the importance of that role.
You are the face of the Navy. You have to do everything in your power to teach, mentor, guide, discipline, and show these Sailors that were just introduced to the worlds most powerful Navy, that being part of a team is bigger than ones self, he said. Effective two-way communication makes a good leader. Communication has to flow freely between mentor and protg in both directions.
Gladding said he has learned a lot the past three years at RTC and plans bring back to the fleet the skills he picked up.
There are so many different backgrounds at Recruit Training Command, including the various rates, where someone is from, and an individuals experience. Having every community in the Navy in one place shows everyone is here for a common goal. Ill bring this approach back to the fleet with me, which will help make my shipmates more successful individually, and as a team, Gladding said.
According to NETC Commander Rear Adm. Don Quinn, exemplary character was instrumental during the competition for the training commands SOY.
This award recognizes Petty Officer Gladdings exceptional leadership and hard work, Quinn said. His performance has been nothing short of brilliant. Fleet readiness begins with quality training. That is especially true of those who serve as Recruit Division Commanders at Recruit Training Center Great Lakes. They transform civilians into Sailors and enable all the training that follows as we collectively turn them into highly skilled, combat-ready warfighters and enable their career-long growth and development, said Quinn.
The U.S. Navy remains the most formidable maritime force in the world and it is our Sailors that make the difference. Our technology is wonderful, but without the determined, trained warrior willing to step into harms way, technology alone is nothing.
During the ceremony, NETC Force Master Chief Jon Port reflected on the meaning of being a Sailor and what it takes to become a Sailor of this caliber.
These Sailors are clearly the front runners at their command and throughout the NETC enterprise. They are active partners in their community and follow the path of continually growing as Sailors professionally and personally, said Port. As the preeminent naval force in the world, we have many amazing ships, aircraft, and weapons. Our first rate capability to support these platforms cant be replicated. However, these hi-tech machines are of no use without the Sailors who man them or those who train our Sailors.
According to Port, the six finalists were all highly skilled, well-informed and articulate.
Im energized after spending a week with the top six out of almost 4,000 1st class petty officers in the NETC domain. Theyre each number one in their own right, said Port. Theyre very good at what they do, and are devoted to the training enterprise, the Navy, and exemplify the core values of honor, courage and commitment.
While in Pensacola the candidates met their counterparts from other training commands, toured NAS Pensacola, and visited several of NETCs training sites, the National Naval Aviation Museum, and the USS Alabama floating museum in Mobile, Ala. These activities were in addition to meeting individually with NETCs Sailor of the Year Board to discuss topics ranging from leadership to voluntary education.
Each Sailor received a Navy Commendation Medal and plaque for their hard work and dedication.

DERBY – Late Monday morning, local, state and federal authorities took two men into custody, whom police believe to be either witnesses or possible suspects in a shooting in Nashua, N.H.
Peter Hinckley, Assistant New Hampshire Attorney General, identified the men as Daniel DeGrace and Benjamin Mayberry.
Police have not released specific details of the shooting, which occurred Sunday night. Hinckley said the shooting victim, a man, was alive and in the hospital.
JAY - What seemed to be just a magnificent and almost unbelievable dream on paper has turned into a reality in just a couple of years.
Four years ago, Bill Stenger, co-owner and President of Jay Peak Resort, unveiled plans for development that called for hundreds of millions of dollars. Stenger and his team were steadfast in their dream and it quickly began taking shape and became a huge success story.
NEWPORT CITY – Fran and Melanie Azur have donated a large amount of grass-fed beef to area food shelves.
The donation comes just in time for the Christmas holidays. Joe Patrissi, executive director for Northeast Kingdom Community Action (NEKCA), said at least 300 families went to NEKCA for Thanksgiving baskets, but the organization only had enough for about half of the requests.
DERBY LINE - Federal and state officials have seized the inventory, assets and accounts of a credit union operated out of a home in Derby Line.
Investigators remain tight-lipped on why they seized Border Lodge Credit Union and how they discovered a problem. However, the Credit Union Times (CU Times), an industry publication, reports that the entity was experiencing higher delinquencies recently as well as decreasing protective measures on loan losses.
NEWPORT, VT - The North Country Union High School Board met briefly Thursday and touched on several subjects of interest, notably that negotiations for a new teachers' contract had been concluded with attorneys for both sides reviewing the document.
Superintendent Robert Kern said an earlier agreement had been reached but a last second objection over the interpretation of some language in the contract proposal sent the matter back to the negotiating table.
Dr. Kern said the major issue was language regarding early retirement and insurance benefits.
DERBY – State Senator Vince Illuzzi might be out of the political game, at least for now, but apparently he will continue to serve Vermonters.
Illuzzi, who served the people of Orleans and Essex Counties, decided not to seek re-election for the senate but instead ran unsuccessfully against Doug Hoffer for state auditor. Now Illuzzi is considering acting as a lobbyist.
During an interview Sunday, Illuzzi said three organizations offered him a contract to do part-time lobbying. After 32 years of being in the state senate, it would be nice to stay involved in some capacity, he said.
It is no secret that the many of the athletes that adorn the pages of local and statewide newspapers come from team-based sports.
Everyone loves football, soccer, hockey, basketball, baseball etc..., and those sports do help sell papers, mainly due to the sheer volume of players that can be featured from game-to-game.
On any given day, someone new can be the hero.
In individual sports, such as skiing and snowboarding, you can either be the hero or the goat, depending on what kind of day you have.
A few great runs, someone else misses a slalom, and you win.

15 U.S. Code § 695 - State development companies
prev | next
(a) Congressional finding and declaration of purpose
The Congress hereby finds and declares that the purpose of this subchapter is to foster economic development and to create or preserve job opportunities in both urban and rural areas by providing long-term financing for small business concerns through the development company program authorized by this subchapter.
(b) Loans; obligations of development companies
The Administration is authorized to make loans to State development companies to assist in carrying out the purposes of this chapter. Any funds advanced under this subsection shall be in exchange for obligations of the development company which bear interest at such rate, and contain such other terms, as the Administration may fix, and funds may be so advanced without regard to the use and investment by the development company of funds secured by it from other sources.
(c) Maximum loans to development companies
The total amount of obligations purchased and outstanding at any one time by the Administration under this section from any one State development company shall not exceed the total amount borrowed by it from all other sources. Funds advanced to a State development company under this section shall be treated on an equal basis with those funds borrowed by such company after August 21, 1958, regardless of source, which have the highest priority, except when this requirement is waived by the Administrator.
(d) Eligibility for assistance
In order to qualify for assistance under this subchapter, the development company must demonstrate that the project to be funded is directed toward at least one of the following economic development objectives—
(1) the creation of job opportunities within two years of the completion of the project or the preservation or retention of jobs attributable to the project;
(2) improving the economy of the locality, such as stimulating other business development in the community, bringing new income into the area, or assisting the community in diversifying and stabilizing its economy; or
(3) the achievement of one or more of the following public policy goals:
(E) expansion of small business concerns owned and controlled by veterans, as defined in section 632 (q) of this title, especially service-disabled veterans, as defined in such section 632 (q) of this title,
(F) enhanced economic competition, including the advancement of technology, plan retooling, conversion to robotics, or competition with imports,
(H) business restructuring arising from Federally mandated standards or policies affecting the environment or the safety and health of employees,
(J) increased use of sustainable design, including designs that reduce the use of greenhouse gas emitting fossil fuels, or low-impact design to produce buildings that reduce the use of non-renewable resources and minimize environmental impact,
(K) plant, equipment and process upgrades of renewable energy sources such as the small-scale production of energy for individual buildings or communities consumption, commonly known as micropower, or renewable fuels producers including biodiesel and ethanol producers, or
(L) reduction of rates of unemployment in labor surplus areas, as such areas are determined by the Secretary of Labor.
In subparagraphs (J) and (K), terms have the meanings given those terms under the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standard for green building certification, as determined by the Administrator.
If eligibility is based upon the criteria set forth in paragraph (2) or (3), the project need not meet the job creation or job preservation criteria developed by the Administration if the overall portfolio of the development company meets or exceeds such job creation or retention criteria.
(e) Creation or retention of jobs
(1) A project meets the objective set forth in subsection (d)(1) of this section if the project creates or retains one job for every $65,000 guaranteed by the Administration, except that the amount is $100,000 in the case of a project of a small manufacturer.
(2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to a project for which eligibility is based on the objectives set forth in paragraph (2) or (3) of subsection (d) of this section, if the development company's portfolio of outstanding debentures creates or retains one job for every $65,000 guaranteed by the Administration.
(3) For projects in Alaska, Hawaii, State-designated enterprise zones, empowerment zones and enterprise communities, labor surplus areas, as determined by the Secretary of Labor, and for other areas designated by the Administrator, the development company's portfolio may average not more than $75,000 per job created or retained.
(4) Loans for projects of small manufacturers shall be excluded from calculations under paragraph (2) or (3).
(5) Under regulations prescribed by the Administrator, the Administrator may waive, on a case-by-case basis or by regulation, any requirement of this subsection (other than paragraph (4)). With respect to any waiver the Administrator is prohibited from adopting a dollar amount that is lower than the amounts set forth in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3).
(6) As used in this subsection, the term "small manufacturer" means a small business concern—
(A) the primary business of which is classified in sector 31, 32, or 33 of the North American Industrial Classification System; and

Mobile Working Group
Introduction to the Mobile Working Group
Mobile computing is experiencing tremendous growth and adoption, while the devices are gaining significant power and dynamic capabilities. Personally owned mobile devices are increasingly being used to access employers' systems and cloud-hosted data – both via browser-based and native mobile applications. Clouds of mobile devices are likely to be common. The CSA Mobile working group will be responsible for providing fundamental research to help secure mobile endpoint computing from a cloud-centric vantage point.
Working Group Scope and Responsibilities
The working group is chartered to research the following areas:
- Securing application stores and other public entities deploying software to mobile devices
- Analysis of mobile security capabilities and features of key mobile operating systems
- Cloud-based management, provisioning, policy, and data management of mobile devices to achieve security objectives
- Guidelines for the mobile device security framework and mobile cloud architectures
- Scalable authentication from mobile devices to multiple, heterogeneous cloud providers
- Best practices for secure mobile application development and securely enabling existing applications on mobile platforms
- Identification of primary risks related to individually owned devices accessing organizational systems (commonly known as BYOD – Bring Your Own Device)
- Solutions for resolving multiple usage roles related to BYOD, e.g. personal and business use of a common device

Mobile BYOD Policy Guidance
It is becoming common for employees to request (demand) the ability to use their personal mobile devices(*) in the course of their work related activities. Allowing them to do so may improve employee productivity, talent retention and business agility but probably runs contrary to existing Corporate/IT policy. A strategy should be chosen to provide the desired level of control, such as a containerization of company data and applications or a full-device, MDM centric approach.

Matt Arena: 'Deep in the Woods' for the new floor
EUGENE, Ore. -- The University of Oregon Athletics Department unveiled another key element for Matthew Knight Arena de-signed to set the facility apart from any other arena in the country. Installation of a unique arena floor is currently under-way and features symbolic references to the Pacific Northwest, as well as the two individuals most responsible for the arena becoming a reality, Phil Knight and Pat Kilkenny.
"We wanted to design the most iconic television presence possible for the University of Oregon by conjuring up a highly unique and visible basketball floor design," according to Tinker Hatfield, vice president for design and special projects for Nike. "It's inspired by our beautiful tree-covered region and the UO 1939 NCAA Championship basketball team nick-named the 'Tall Firs.'"
The court is framed by a representation of a view from beneath a forest of fir trees. Also present on the floor is the new arena logo, designed for the namesake of the building, Matthew Knight.
The floor has been named for Kilkenny, a long-time supporter of the University of Oregon who recently served as the school's director of athletics (2007-09), and whose contributions were paramount in the arena's construction. The "Kilkenny Floor" text listed above the Matt Arena logo, is accompanied by three additional graphics.
"We wanted to pay respect to Pat Kilkenny, and the Kilkenny family, by telling their story in a classy and subdued series of three symbolic graphics," Hatfield said.
Graphic 1 (left side) depicts Morrow County and Heppner, Ore., where Pat Kilkenny grew up. Graphic 2, which symbolizes his education at UO, is the 1970's interlocking UO logo adorned with three shamrocks representative of his very green and very Irish heritage. Graphic 3 symbolizes the beach and sunset of San Diego, where he became a highly successful entrepreneur and still resides today.
As a finishing touch, the phrase "Deep in the Woods" is located below the Matt Arena logo. These words embody the intimidation the venue will pose for visiting teams, and add soul to the building.
- Floor is a Connor Sports Flooring Quicklock Portable Floor (The same surface used for NCAA Men's and Women's Basketball Championships) . Floor was manufactured in the upper peninsula of Michigan in the town of Amasa, Mich.
- Wood used for the floor was donated by Gonyea Family/Timber Products Co., of Eugene/Springfield . Floor is 6,944 square feet of Northern Hard Maple that is from an FSC Certified Forest . Fabrication of Raw Floor took one week to complete . There are 225 interlocking panels weighing approximately 45,000 total pounds.
- Graphics were completed by United Services based in Idaho Falls, Idaho . Graphics took 2,500 man hours to complete . Almost 2 miles of stencil material was utilized for the completion of the graphics . More stencil material was used on this floor then used for the other 30 floors Connor Sports Flooring completed this year.

DMD Program
The Harvard School of Dental Medicine offers DMD candidates an unparalleled opportunity to draw on the resources of a world-renowned University and medical center in the education of its dental students. At its heart, the program considers dentistry a partner to medicine. A solid understanding of the basics of human disease mechanisms shapes the foundation of the program.
In an environment of excellence, shared with Medical School classmates during the early years of education, students gain an appreciation of the human mind, body, and spirit. The opportunity to learn firsthand the importance of the doctor-patient relationship, and the chance to participate in research, result in a deep understanding of the connection between oral health and general health.
The curriculum is presented in a problem-based-learning format that fosters the development of independent learning, critical thinking, and the lifelong learning skills important to health-care professionals. Courses include lectures, laboratory work, and small-group tutorials, creating a team-oriented, collaborative learning environment in which students are stimulated and challenged to learn, think, and apply their knowledge of science in new ways. For more about the learning environment, visit Curriculum Overview and Organization.
In Year 1 and Year 2, students study the preclinical sciences together with their peers at Harvard Medical School. Clinical training begins in Year 3 and provides the basics of all phases of dentistry. Patient care is conducted in the Teaching Practice of the Harvard Dental Center. The problem-based format continues the interdisciplinary and collaborative approach of the preclinical years. With students organized in unique mentored treatment teams, Year 3 emphasizes individualized instruction, comprehensive care, and respect for the challenge of pairing science with patient care. In Year 4 this multifaceted educational experience is enhanced as students provide patient care at affiliated institutions, treating patients with varying needs and levels of general health. Additional curricular options provide elective opportunities to augment educational and career goals.
The Harvard School of Dental Medicine has achieved success in its mission of producing leaders in the field of dental medicine in clinical care, teaching, and research by being educationally innovative and by providing a professional-school education without equal.
For more information about the DMD program or DMD admissions, contact the Office of Admissions by e-mail or by phone at 617-432-1443.

Started not to order this dress because of the comments about the shrug not fitting properly but so glad I ordered. I wear a size 12 and the dress and shrug fit perfectly. The colors are beautiful.
Morganton, NC
I ordered this dress in the peach. Very pleased with the dress & fit. I will agree with another reviewer about the shrug. It doesn't stay put..keeps going to the side. No problem.. I just put a small stitch to connect and then just put it over my head.
Bama Girl
Birmingham, Al
Very pretty
I got this in the multi. The print is more beautiful in person than in the catalog. One thing to note is that although the background on the dress in the catalog looks white, it was actually beige. The fit is very nice. The shrug doesn't really fit well but I have others that I can wear with it.
beautiful dress and great value
I ordered this dress in the peach. The dress fit like my usual size, but the bolero is small, and I have trouble keeping it from going to the sides. I might just wear the dress with another shrug because it was a great price and very feminine and spring-like. I also ordered the strappy crisscross sandals in the coral color and they are a perfect match
