Carbon County Recreation's fall brochure is now available and some program deadlines are just around the corner.
Youth programs like soccer, flag football, and tennis lessons are beginning soon in Carbon County.
The deadline to register children for CCR's soccer program is Tuesday, August 30 at 5 p.m. Soccer is an inexpensive program, just $16 per child or $28 with a jersey.
CCR is also running a beginner special for soccer. For this session only, the fee for kindergarten and first graders is only $10 if parents register by the deadline.
Flag football is a great way for local children to learn the basics and fundamentals of the gridiron sport. There is a league for third and fourth grade children.
Games will be scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays at Castle Heights Elementary. The fee is $25 which includes a team t-shirt. The registration deadline for flag football is also Tuesday, August 30.
Tennis lessons will begin September 7 and will run on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30 p.m.
The fee for tennis lessons is $10, but if participants have never taken lessons before, CCR is offering a first time special of just $5 per person for the entire session. That is less that $1 per lesson. Tennis is a sport for all ages and lessons are for both youth and adults.
Other programs this fall include adult co-ed volleyball, youth and adult three on three basketball, cardio health in Helper and youth wrestling.
Carbon Recreation is located at 90 North 100 East in room 145 in the Price Community Center.

great vibe mallets, great sound, great price.
Comments about Mike Balter Pro Vibe Series Rattan Mallets:
The Mike Balter blue mallets a great all-purpose vibes mallet. Great for most situations, and also sound great under a couple of mics. If you do a lot of mallet dampening, the yarns will wear out. That will happen with any vibes mallet.If you're playing enough to wear these out, you probably want to learn how to wind you own mallets. I've restrung my mallets dozens of times and the shafts are still in great shape. It saves A LOT of money and it takes me about an hour to do a set of four. The greens work well for outdoor situations, but for 90% of the time, I stick to the blue model.
Comments about Mike Balter Pro Vibe Series Rattan Mallets:
These are the closest style of mallets to the legendary hand wound "good vibes" mallets of the early 70's. Unfortunately, they are the best mallets that I have found so far and I am sorry to have to say that. The handles are very good and mostly straight. I have never broken one and they do not warp very easily, even when left for long periods in a hot vehicle. But the yarn is awful and seems to be chosen to wear out fast because I go through two or three sets a year, when I have played on the older mallets for years without the yarn wearing out. In short - if you want to wind your own yarn - get these because the handles and heads are great. If you don't - look elsewhere. If anyone knows where there are some really great mallets with yarn that does not wear out quickly, let me know.

SACKETS HARBOR The states Division of Human Rights has cleared the Sackets Harbor Fire Company following a discrimination complaint from former member Helene G. Stewart-Rainville.
In a written determination, the division said there was no probable cause to believe that the company had engaged in unlawful discriminatory practices, and that it had acted appropriately in terminating her membership in the volunteer company.
As President of the Board of Directors, I am pleased with the decision and believe that it affirms the actions of the Fire Company, Michael D. Hoagland said in a statement to the Times.
He said the company would have no further comment about the matter.
Ms.Stewart-Rainvilles attorney, Barry Schriebman, said the decision would be appealed.

Completely-in-the-canal hearing aids are among the most common styles of the device.
According to the Mayo Clinic, this type of hearing aid is molded to fit inside your ear canal. It works best for people with mild to moderate hearing loss.
According to the Mayo Clinic, this type of hearing aid offers the following benefits: it's not highly noticeable; it picks up less wind noise because it's in the ear; and it's usually easy to talk on the telephone with it.
Unlike some other hearing aid models, the completely-in-the-canal hearing aid doesn't have volume control.

Although Carbon's economy managed to post employment gains in July, the county experienced a climbing jobless rate last month.
The latest data compiled by the Utah Department of Workforce Services indicate Carbon's unemployment rate increased to 4.6 percent last month from the 4.5 percent level reported in June 2008.
By comparison, Carbon's unemployment rate measured at 3.6 percent in July 2007.
On the positive side of the economic spectrum, Carbon County posted a 1.6 percent employment expansion rate, with the local labor force totalling 9,242 last month and 9,097 in July 2007.
At the state level, Utah's non-farm wage and salaried job growth for July 2008, as compared against July 2007, is estimated at 0.6 percent. This is lower than last month's 0.9 percent and represents more downward movement in Utah's employment picture.
Approximately 7,300 jobs have been created in the Utah economy within the past year, raising total wage and salary employment to 1,250,100.
Utah's second primary indicator of labor market conditions - the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate - jumped to 3.5 percent in July. Last July, the state's rate was 2.7 percent.
Approximately 48,900 Utahns were considered unemployed in July compared to 37,000 last year.
At the national level, the United States unemployment rate rose to 5.7 percent in July, exceeding last year's nationwide jobless level by one full percentage point.
"The housing construction picture keeps getting worse and it really has no chance of improving until next year at the earliest. Even next year carries its own questions," commented Mark Knold, department of workforce services economist. "Is Utah in a recession? Probably a psychological recession, given rising energy and food prices plus an onslaught of negative media highlights. But Utah's remaining industries taken together don't support a recession. In fact, if we removed the construction industry from the picture, Utah's employment growth rate across the remaining industries is almost 2 percent."
"Online job listings are down a bit for July, but not significantly," pointed out the DWS economist. "The health care industry continues to aggressively expand employment and I recently attended a meeting composed of information technology and life science human resource personnel who bemoaned the lack of engineers and other available technicians. They would hire workers and expand if they could find willing and available labor. We also observe that, even in slow economic times, there are still vast amounts of churning and job changing that occur. Job opportunities still present themselves."
The education and health care sectors added approximately 6,500 employment opportunities in the last 12 months.
Health care accounted for the majority of the job growth, expanding employment by nearly 6 percent. Health care responds to population growth and demographic change and can breeze through slowing economic times with minimal or no adverse impact, indicated Knold.
Education is a second industry somewhat immune to the ups and downs of the economic cycle.
At the kindergarten to 12th grade level, the sector is almost completely immune to economic impacts.
Utah's surging elementary age population drives up the demand for additional teachers. As the student population climbs to higher grade levels, teaching employment expands statewide.
"We also observe that slower economies put more demand upon higher education. When job access and opportunities slow, many working-age adults choose to return to the education system as a means of riding out a slow economy and furthering their knowledge and skill base, thus increasing their attractiveness for future employment," noted Knold.
Industries like life sciences, information technology and computer software remained fairly vibrant in July. Life sciences encompass biotechnology, medical devices, research and development, pharmaceuticals and most areas related to the environment.
Occupations in the sector demand specialized education or training.
Energy or natural resources represents another robust area in Utah, particularly oil and natural gas development in the Uintah Basin, Carbon and Duchesne counties.
Coal is also a major player in the central Utah economy, but mining activity has slowed. However, few alternatives to coal currently exist and mining remains a key part of America's energy matrix.
Several industries are struggling in Utah.
Construction remains the most visible and the picture continues to darken. The industry follows a pattern of low employment in winter and peak labor force numbers in summer. But last December's construction employment exceeded the July level employment.
The situation does not appear poised to reverse, pointed out the DWS economist. With changed mortgage rates and borrowing requirements, home prices are overvalued and unaffordable for many Utahns. It will take time for the adjustments needed to correct the imbalance.
In addition, all activities in the finance industry have scaled back and the sector has shed 800 jobs statewide on a year-over-year basis. Most national analysts continue seeing banking and finance struggling to maintain solvency.
Utah's manufacturing environment is also succumbing to the national downturn. On a year-over basis, the industry added 200 jobs statewide, but has been trending downward all year, and is expected to soon move to the negative side of the ledger, maybe as soon as next month.

Sheldon sloshes into the semifinals with a 67-27 win
BEAVERTON, Ore. -- With Friday night's treacherous rainfall, sloppy mistakes plagued the Sheldon Irish in their playoff game against the Southridge Skyhawks. However the slippery Skyhawks field in Beaverton might not have been the only reason for a slow start.
After regaining their footing, the Irish pulled out a 67-27 victory to beat the Skyhawks for the second time this year.
The win solidified the Irish a slot in the Semifinals next week.
As quarterback Taylor Alie said, the victory was hard-fought.
"[The] second time playing a team is always tough … they've seen what you can do," Alie said after the game. "We came out the first game and we were nervous, and we just didn't play Sheldon football. And this time, it kind of showed."
In the first quarter, the Irish didn't come out as strong as normal, with three penalties - one holding, two false starts – in their first series. The Irish punted on 4th and 22. Southridge, too, started their series in a lull, punting on 4th and 4.
For their second possession of the ball, quarterback Taylor Alie's handoff to running back Mitch Lewis led to a fumble. The Irish recovered the ball and continued their possession, with a pass to wide receiver Connor Strahm and another to running back Mitch Lewis, before quarterback Alie's pass to wide receiver Mike Ralston for the first touchdown of the night.
Down 7-0, the Skyhawks failed to score and had to punt. On the punt return, wide receiver Strahm ran for 36 yards to set up the next Irish score. Quarterback Alie then threw a laser pass to wide receiver Mitchell Herbert, putting the Irish up 13-0. The Irish missed the PAT.
After Southridge's third failed attempt of the night, the Irish racked up another seven points, with quarterback Alie scoring on a quarterback keeper. Alie's touchdown put the Irish up, 20-0, after the PAT.
With 1:40 left in the first quarter, Southridge had their first scoring drive of the night, with a run play straight into the endzone.
Up 20-7, the Irish's next miscue was a costly one. Wide receiver Strahm fumbled, after his reception. Southridge reacted, and recovered the ball.
The sloppy weather conditions took their toll, however, as running back Devin Martinez, too, fumbled at the 48-yard line. The Irish recovered.
The ball back in Irish hands, quarterback Alie threw a swift pass to wide receiver Strahm. The 13-yard reception was enough for a touchdown, putting the Irish up 27-7.
On the next Southridge possession, running back Jacob Pruit put six more points on the board for the Skyhawks, with his short run after another Irish penalty – a personal foul. After the PAT, the score was Irish 27, Skyhawks 14.
Wide receiver Connor Strahm had the next touchdown of the night, with his run play out of wildcat formation. This put the Irish up 34-14.
The Skyhawks punted soon thereafter, giving the ball back to the Irish, after failing to put points on the board. The next set of points came when quarterback Alie tossed the ball to wide receiver Dylan Lewis.
Down by a score of 41-14, Southridge stepped up their play with Skyhawk quarterback Resa Aleaziz's touchdown pass to wide receiver Kevin McClean, nearing the end of the second quarter.
When asked how prepared he believed his team was for this game, wide receiver Strahm said, "We were very prepared. We had a really good week of practice."
The score stood at 41-21 to start the second half. Southridge's touchdowns halted for the remainder of the night. The Irish went on to score three more touchdowns – two passes to wide receiver Strahm, and a 90-yard kickoff return by wide receiver Dylan Lewis.
Quarterback Taylor Alie finished the night with 350 pass yards and five touchdowns. He completed 25 of 31 pass attempts.
"Taylor had [an] excellent game today," said wide receiver Strahm. "[He] improved tremendously from the first game to this game, and I think it showed out there."
With this 62-27 win under their belt, the Sheldon Irish remain undefeated, and look forward to the Semifinals, where they will be playing the Jesuit High School Crusaders on Saturday, December 1, in Portland.

Ready, set, go!
It's off to opening day of the National Confectioners Association's annual Sweets & Snacks Expo in Chicago. This 3-day sugarlicious industry event is candy heaven. Rows and rows of candy manufacturers display their latest confections to hungry retail buyers from all over the world.
We've already got a "hot list" of new products we know we want to to see (and sample!) top o' the morning, including …
Baby Blue and Pink Gummy Bears
Not sure what's cooler. The colors or the flavors of these gummy bears. Albanese Confectionery Company's translucent Baby Blue Blueberry and Baby Pink Grapefruit Gummy Bears have huge potential for baby showers and weddings. I'm quite sure they'll live up to expectations.
Sweethearts Marshmallows
Heart-shaped Marshmallow Sweethearts® are headed to love birds everywhere this Valentine's Day. Just like classic Sweethearts® (Sweethearts is a registered trademark of New England Confectionery Company), the new fluffy, puffy marshmallow hearts will feature sweet nothings like "Hug me," "Smile," and "Be Mine." Manufactured by the Spangler Candy Company, the hearts will come in sweet little 1.6-ounce pink boxes and an assortment of flavors (Strawberry, Grape, Green Apple, and Blue Raspberry). Think of the possibilities for dressing up cupcakes, cookies, cake pops, Rice Krispie Treats, S'mores, ice cream, hot cocoa … oh my!
Astro Pops
Two years after acquiring the retired Astro Pop brand from the Spangler Candy Company, Leaf Brands, LLC is bringing the classic Cherry, Passion Fruit, and Pineapple-flavored rocket pops back to life in two sizes: original 1 oz. for mass merchants, and 1.5 oz. for smaller retailers. To ensure that the 2012 Astro Pop was made exactly the way everyone remembered it—down to the wax and clear wrapper—Leaf Brands enlisted the help of its Facebook friends. Based on product photos, it looks spot on.
In other Leaf Brands news, the company now owns the rights to Bonkers and Wacky Wafers, so be on the lookout for those two classic comebacks in 2013.
Justin's All-Natural Candy Bars
According to Justin's press info, the company's new All-natural Candy Bar line (including Milk Chocolate Peanut, Dark Chocolate Peanut, and Milk Chocolate Almond) contains "25% less sugar, 50% more protein, and 100% more fiber than the leading conventional candy bar, Snickers®." Beyond that, Justin's "uses only all-natural and organic ingredients, has no hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, preservatives or trans fats, and is also gluten free."
Um, that's a mouthful. How can you not be curious enough to give these a road test?
DOVE Cookies and Crème Bars and Promises
Coming September 2012: DOVE® Silky Smooth Cookies & Crème Bars and Promises from Mars Chocolate North America. It's sweet and creamy white chocolate and crunch chocolate cookie bits under the DOVE umbrella. Enough said.
Wild Ophelia Candy Bars
Katrina Markoff, the brainchild behind Vosges Haut-Chocolat, has a new venture, Wild Ophelia: Taking an American Road Trip Through Chocolate. Her latest line of exotic dark and milk chocolate bars are smaller than traditional Vosges bars (2 oz. vs. 3 oz.), and less expensive ($4.50-ish vs. $7.50-ish).
Wild Ophelia exhibited at last year's Sweets & Snacks Expo, but with only five bars. This year, the brand has blossomed into nine bars, including Peanut Butter & Banana, Salted Chowchilla Almond, Smokehouse BBQ Potato Chips, Sweet & Crispy Caramel Corn, Beef Jerky, Southern Hibiscus Peach, New Orleans Chili, Mount Sequoia Granola, and Sweet Cherry Pecan. BBQ potato chips blended with dark chocolate sounds both disgusting and inviting. Must try!
Blue Raspberry and Wild Cherry Bonomo Turkish Taffy
The Warrell Corporation brought Bonomo Turkish Taffy out of retirement two years ago. This year, Warrell is expanding its nostalgic and incredibly chewy (the last time I sampled Bonomo Turkish Taffy, I lost a filling) taffy line with two new flavors: Blue Raspberry and Wild Cherry. Given the popularity of Cherry and Blue Raspberry Airheads, these flavors are a pretty safe bet.
Tic Tac Cinnamon Spice
Because I am one of the few humans on the planet who likes "Close-Up Cinnamon Red Gel Toothpaste," I have a hunch, I'll like Ferrero U.S.A.'s new Cinnamon Spice Tic Tacs with "sweet, warm flavor." They've got great color for the holidays and each tiny piece is less than 2 calories. Hello stocking stuffer.
If you're on the Sweets & Snacks show floor today, let us know. We'd love to meet you!

By LES BOWENSun Advocate reporter
At the close of its 2006 budget year, the Price River Water Improvement District posted $121,246 in unanticipated revenues.
Some of the revenue will be carried over to the 2007 budget, though most will be used to offset expenses in the 2006 budget.
The PRWID board voted to open the budget and make changes which resulted in a carryover of $31,051 to 2007. In the same action, the board approved $80,165 to be used to cover expenditures in 2006.
As most public entities reach the end of a budget cycle, officials must re-open budgets and transfer funds to cover unanticipated costs.
However, the water improvement district opened its budget to add new revenues generated during the current year.
By using the unanticipated revenues, the district is able to reduce the number and amount of transfers between funds.
More than one-third of the increase comes from motor vehicle in lieu fees.
The district receives a portion of fees paid for registration of motor vehicles. The amount paid to PRWID can vary according to the total number of vehicles registered in a particular year.
At the end of 2005, when the board approved the 2006 budget, district officials anticipated that the district would collect $160,000.
However, more vehicles were registered than originally estimated and that amount has jumped by nearly $46,000 to $205,844.
The district will transfer $10,000 from motor vehicle in lieu fees to fleet maintenance. Another $10,000 will go to line maintenance.
PRWID spent more than $17,000 in legal fees for the Carbon Canal winter water project. To offset legal fees, $10,750 from in lieu payments will be transferred to the district's tort liability fund.
The balance of the motor vehicle in lieu fees, a sum $15,094, will be carried over to the water district's 2007 budget.
The district received $44,476 for costs associated with construction of the Helper interchange. PRWID operates a water and a sewer line which will be relocated before the highway project is completed. A sum of $34,822 from the Utah Department of Transportation will go to the capital water project fund. An additional $9,654 will go into the sewer capital project fund.
District manager Phil Palmer reported that more than 80 percent of the new water line and one valve are n place. The remaining water line, a second valve and the sewer line relocation have been delayed until Price's 16-inch line has been removed from its current location.
In 2004, PRWID began making purchases associated with the Helper interchange. The funds from UDOT cover previous expenditures and leave more than $28,000 for future costs.
More than $9,800 of the unanticipated revenues came from interest payments.
PRWID secretary Kathy Dahl explained that PRWID keeps the bulk of its money in the state's public treasurer tnvestment fund. The fund has returned a more favorable profit than forecast.
In the administration maintenance and operation fund, the district saw an increase of $7,957, from $5,500 to $13,457. An additional $1,500 in interest has posted to PRWID's water and sewer debt service fund, a jump from $3,700 to $5,200.
In the water capital project fund, PRWID received $350 more than anticipated and in the sewer capital project fund, the district received $375 more than expected. All of the unanticipated interest will be carried over to the 2007 budget.
The district does not always sell surplus property, and does not budget for revenues in that area. However, the district sold some gas tanks it owned this year and made $6,500 in the process. That money will be used to offset expenses in the administration capital project fund.
The board had anticipated making a transfer from the administration maintenance and operation fund to cover capital project expenses.But $6,500 less than anticipated will have to be transferred, leaving an extra $6,500 in the administration maintenance and operation fund, which will be carried over to 2007.
Significant amounts of new revenues were spent in the sewer and water capital project funds. Grant proceeds for the Carbonville/east Wellington project totaled $20,000. An additional $9,250 came from water impact fees. Impact fees and grant proceeds will cover the 2006 expenses.
PRWID also posted small increases in its sewer maintenance and operation fund. Sewer inspection fee revenues climbed $210, from $650 to $860.
Finally, sewer impact fees collected by PRWID increased more than $35,000, all of which has been used within the sewer capital project fund in the 2006 budget.

|Researchers studying Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) may have found a genetic clue to the condition, one of the most common mental disorders that develop in children. Writing this week in the Journal of Neuroscience, scientists report that in two brothers with ADHD, a genetic change appears to make one of the brain's neurochemical pathways, the dopamine transporter, run in reverse. The result of that mis-wiring is that the brain acts as if amphetamines are always present, the researchers say. The work might also help explain why chemicals that are stimulants in people without ADHD, such as Ritalin, have a calming, focusing effect in some children with the condition. We'll talk with one of the study's authors about the findings, and what they might mean for ADHD treatment.

CANTON Living Curiously is a smoking place.
The recently opened shop in the cellar of 109 Main St. offers a large variety of pipes, hemp and paracord jewelry, T-shirts, flavored tobacco wraps, organic rolling paper and a dozen flavors of shiazo for hookahs.
Glass pipes can be sandblasted and custom painted. Wood, metal and glass pipes including some blown into the shape of animals range from $10 to $200.
Everything here is intended for tobacco use, said owner Eli D. Carrier, Canton. Its not intended for anything else.
Nothing illegal is sold, Mr. Carrier said. Cigarettes are not part of the product line because they are widely available elsewhere, but Mr. Carrier eventually plans to have a humidor to sell individual cigars. He wants to expand his clothing line in the fall to North Face jackets.
Ive got a lot of stuff I want to get, he said. My inventory changes every week. Im here to please the public. Suggestions are always welcome.
Mr. Carrier named his shop Living Curiously to draw people in.
The Curiosity part leaves it open to what I have, he said. It just brings that attraction.
Mr. Carrier, the former owner of Carriers Taxi, decided to open the shop as a way to make money while he pursued an online degree from Ashford University, Clinton, Iowa.
Its been busy, a lot of foot traffic, he said. Weve had professionals to college kids.
The shop, which features painted murals by Sean Lennox, is open from noon to 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday and noon to 7 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.

Fatal accident on Trotter Road in Anderson
Two teens were killed in an accident on Trotter Road-Burts Garage Road at U.S. 29 South in Anderson County involving a tanker truck and a late 1990s Chevrolet Malibu. The two 14-year-old boys who were killed were passengers in the Malibu, Anderson County Coroner Greg Shore said. The accident, south of Masters Blvd. in the Starr community, happened around 11:43 a.m., according to witnesses and the South Carolina Highway Patrol website. Six people were in the Malibu, which was pulling out of Trotter Road when the accident happened and was significantly damaged.

These pictures are a few months old (and therefore ancient in fashion/internet terms) but I still want to share this Annie Leibovitz spread for American Vogue. Styled by Grace Coddington, Natalia Vodianova is novelist Edith Wharton on her Massachusetts estate, The Mount. Flanking her is novelist Jeffrey Eugenides as Henry James, Boardwalk Empire actor Jack Huston as her mercurial lover William Morton Fullerton and an interesting cast of supporting characters including Elijah Wood as her chauffeur (!) and James Corden as Teddy Roosevelt (!?!).
The editorial is rather static and dreamy and Old World-ish, and there are cameos from American men of letters like Pulitzer Prize winner Junot Diaz (no women, unfortunately). It's also accompanied by a rather lovely piece by Colm Toibin, which you can read here. I suppose the only bone to pick is that Wharton was supposed to be about 45 at this time, while Vodianova is… not. Kristen McMenamy might have made a better Wharton or, as one of the original commenters suggested, perhaps a female novelist would have been best.

In our mobile accessory of the week feature, we often review gadgets with all the bells and whistles, tons of features and an epic specs list. But this week, we chose our featured accessory because of its simplicity. Sleek and streamlined, Moshi's iGlaze Kameleon carrying case for iPhone 5 is almost futuristic in its minimalism.
Sometimes, less is more. And that's the case with this elegant accessory. Of course, Moshi's well known for its highly functional iPhone cases, and here again they've managed to make a protective case that's up to the job without ever looking over-designed.
Created with the media devourer in mind, the main feature of the iGlaze Kameleon case is its sleek aluminum kickstand, which allows for easy video and photo viewing without adding much bulk or weight to your phone.
You can use the integrated kickstand in either portrait or landscape mode, so whatever the media, you can get the perfect view, without the kickstand obstructing any controls.
Another high point for this carrying case is obviously its style. With a designer vegan leather backing overlaid on a tough polycarbonate frame, it looks like something out of a high-end interior design shop. And never has protecting your iPhone from bumps, shocks and scratches looked so elegant or sophisticated as in this sleek, modern accessory.
Especially considering that the iPhone 5 is one of the most beautiful, albeit minimalistic, phones on the market right now, we have to hand it to Moshi for designing a case that's so in tune with the newest iPhone's look.
As far as its suave, contemporary look, uncomplicated and easy to use kickstand and overall well thought out design, we'd rank the iGlaze Kameleon case as one of the best iPhone 5 accessories out there.

A man riding his bicycle on US-6 crashed his bike outside of Colton on Tuesday afternoon, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.
UHP Trooper Todd Johnson said the man, David Smith, 74, Erda, was riding his bike eastbound along the highway near mile post 218 when he lost control of the bicycle, crashing just short of a bridge above the Price River. It is unknown if speed played a factor in the crash, Johnson said.
Johnson said Smith reportedly had minor injuries when authorities responded to the scene but refused any medical treatment.
Eastbound traffic on US-6 was closed down to one lane while authorities tended to Smith.
Smith was transported by police to the Soldier Summit gas station where he was picked up by family members, Johnson said.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — U.S. stock-index futures retreated a bit Thursday as Wall Street considered the recently reached budget deal as well as what further moves are needed to curb the nation's red ink.
Futures remained lower after ADP estimated the addition of 215,000 private-sector jobs in December. The better-than-expected figure bodes well for Friday's nonfarm payrolls report, with the ADP tally "the strongest monthly gain since February," as Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG LLC, noted in an email.
Analysts surveyed by MarketWatch expect the government to report employment rose by 153,000 last month.
Equities remained in position for a moderately lower start after the Labor Department said initial claims for unemployment benefits last week jumped 10,000 to a five-week high of 372,000.
Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average US:DJH3 fell 21 points, or 0.2%, to 13,311, while S&P 500 Index futures US:SPH3 lost 2.2 points, or 0.2%, to 1,454.90.
Google+ faces off against Facebook
Google+ seeks to challenge Facebook by improving its integration with other Google services, and users are warming up to the new service offering.
Nasdaq 100 futures US:NDH3 shed 3 points, or 0.1%, to 2,735.75.
Also on investors' radar screens, the Federal Reserve will release minutes of its Dec. 11-12 meeting at 2 p.m. Eastern. At that meeting, the U.S. central bank pledged to keep interest rates at near-zero levels so long as the unemployment rate is above 6.5% and provided inflation in the year or two ahead is below 2.5%. See: What to watch on U.S. economy Thursday.
In addition, Wall Street awaits December figures on car sales from auto makers.
Fed to tip exit strategy?
While the Fed's move last month was seen as a more aggressive response, it also offered the clearest exit strategy yet for withdrawing stimulus once the U.S. economy, the world's largest, is clearly on the mend, said Ilya Spivak, currency strategist at DailyFX.
That means "traders will be keen to scour the release for clues about the possibility of a sooner-than-expected withdrawal of accommodation," Spivak said in a note to clients.
"While it is unclear whether investors would treat this as risk-supportive (in that it would imply a stronger U.S. economy) or risk-negative (in that it would foreshadow the removal of Fed support for the recovery), the reaction will be interesting to monitor in that it will set the tone for the markets' reaction to Friday's jobs report and forthcoming U.S. data in general," he said.
Stocks surged Wednesday, with the Dow industrials DJIA, +0.82% posting its biggest ever first-session-of-the-year point rise.
Investors cheered a last-minute deal between the White House and congressional Republicans to avoid a combination of steep spending cuts and tax hikes that economists have feared would push the U.S. back into recession. See: U.S. stock indexes start 2013 with big rally.

Naval Academy Academic Dean and Provost Reappointed
Posted on: February 14, 2013 08:00 EST by Naval Academy Public Affairs
The Naval Academy announced Feb. 14 that Dr. Andrew T. Phillips has been reappointed as the academy's Academic Dean and Provost, extending his term through July 31, 2017. Phillips has served in this position since July 2009.
The Academic Dean and Provost is responsible for the rigorous academic program for the 4,400-member Brigade of Midshipmen, overseeing more than 560 faculty members and serving as the primary source of information and advice for the superintendent regarding the education of midshipmen.
"This extension is in recognition of Dean Phillips' outstanding leadership of the Naval Academy's academic programs and of my confidence in his continued contributions to the mission of the United States Naval Academy," said Naval Academy Superintendent Vice Adm. Michael Miller.
Since his arrival to the Naval Academy, Phillips has made significant contributions to academic development at the academy. He has overseen the addition of a new academic major in operations research and two new core courses in cyber operations. He has worked to increase the percentage of students graduating in technical majors while also increasing graduating rates to an all-time high of 88 percent and is working to develop the proposed construction of an academic cyber center at the academy.
Phillips was the associate vice chancellor for academic affairs and dean of graduate studies at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire before arriving at the Naval Academy.
In 1984 Phillips received his Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics and computer science from Pennsylvania State University. He earned his master's and doctorate degrees in computer and information science from the University of Minnesota in 1986 and 1988, respectively.
Phillips' first teaching position was as an assistant professor in the Naval Academy's Computer Science Department from 1988-1993. In 1993, he was awarded tenure and served as an associate professor in the department until 1998.
In 1998, Phillips left the Naval Academy to assume the position of professor and chair of the Computer Science Department at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

It was just launched in January, but a lot has happened in just a few short months.
The Center for Entrepreneurial Excellence is spreading the entrepreneurial spirit, not just on the Logan campus but also across the many regional campuses of Utah State. A key resource for making these connections is the Entrepreneurship Club; it helps students develop their ideas into sustainable ventures, and it also helps students prepare their ventures to compete in state-wide contests.
Four students, all entrepreneurs at heart, have taken leadership roles in the Entrepreneurship Club for the coming 2012-2013 school year. The students represent multiple colleges across campus, including business, engineering, humanities, and social sciences.
Kyle Ivins is the club president. A senior in business administration, Kyle has started and sold multiple companies, including Kilo Relay Series and EnvolvSocial. He took 3rd place in last year's Opportunity Quest business plan competition.
Kyle is supported by three vice presidents, Brian Kartchner, David Reynolds, and Reed Page. Brian Kartchner is a senior in sociology, launcher of his own window cleaning company, and an Army veteran who served in Iraq. David Reynolds is a senior majoring in mechanical engineering and a veteran of the Marine Corps, having served in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Reed Page is an economics and finance major who has helped start several companies, including Page-Stroud Finance, which took 2nd place in last year's Opportunity Quest.

If you get an error of the following type for some queries, it means that MySQL cannot create a temporary file for the result set in the temporary directory:
Can't create/write to file '\\sqla3fe_0.ism'.
The preceding error is a typical message for Windows; the Unix message is similar.
One fix is to start mysqld with the
--tmpdir option or to add the
option to the
[mysqld] section of your
option file. For example, to specify a directory of
C:\temp, use these lines:
[mysqld] tmpdir=C:/temp
C:\temp directory must exist and have
sufficient space for the MySQL server to write to. See
Section 4.2.6, "Using Option Files".
Another cause of this error can be permissions issues. Make
sure that the MySQL server can write to the
tmpdir directory.
Check also the error code that you get with perror. One reason the server cannot write to a table is that the file system is full:
perror 28
OS error code 28: No space left on device
If you get an error of the following type during startup, it indicates that the file system or directory used for storing data files is write protected. Provided that the write error is to a test file, the error is not serious and can be safely ignored.
Can't create test file /usr/local/mysql/data/master.lower-test

Please notice that antivirus programs may sporadically lock MySQL temporary files, and make the server to throw an "Can't create/write to file '/tmp/#sql_3a5_0.MYI' (Errcode: 13)". I fixed the problem by excluding the MySQL temporary directory from antivirus scanning.

ERROR: Can't read/write to file...
i keep forgetting why it fails for me (i use windows and *nix), so heres what needs to be checked:
- antivirus interference (never caused me errors)
- use 'somefieldname' instead of * (never caused me errors)
- permissions (i've forgotten to give 'Everyone' Read & Write perms on windows, chmod 777 on *nix)
- give MySQL user FILE perms (CREATE USER MyDBconnecter...with FILE perms)
- $myroot=str_replace('\\','/',$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
(this last one often trips me up: the \ causes trouble on windows)
Hope this helps others,

I tried many things and read many thing but at the end I just went to the KUser (User Manager in kde),select mysql user and ticked into option Account Disabled and after it worked. It seems that that tick somehow refreshed the permissions.

Turning "off" the scanning of windows/temp folder in the anti-virus resolved the issue for me.
I was not getting the issue for all the queries, but for some of them and that too not always. The error occurred when a lot of temporary MYI files were being created, and the anti-virus 'locked' the folder for scanning, before it could be written by next query result.

If you are running Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows, here's a way to fix the issue. Go to Settings > Excluded Files & Locations. Click on Add, and browser to the MySQL folder.
On my computer, it's c:\wamp\bin\mysql
Click OK, and Save Changes.

in Mac OS, if you made changes to folder temp (delete, recreate), the owner of folder "temp" should be changed, so mysql can not make changes with it
we have to change owner of folder "temp" to "nobody"
open terminal and enter without ""
"sudo chown nobody /applications/xampp/xamppfiles/temp"
then enter your computer's password
/applications/xampp/xamppfiles/temp is link to your folder "temp"

One of the best life lessons my dad taught me and my siblings was when to break the rules. Mostly he taught us to follow the rules, but he also taught us that we needed to think for ourselves and sometimes we should break rules and challenge authority. Do you really want Bob to obey the Miss Lillians of the world *all* the time? I never want my kids to use the excuse, "I was just following orders."ReplyDelete

Tweezerman File, Buff & Shine Tool
We know you want the goods as soon as possible, which is why orders received by 3pm ET leave our warehouse the very same day. We'll send you an email that day to confirm shipment and the email will include your tracking information.
Our warehouse is closed Saturday & Sunday, so orders received after 3pm ET on Fridays will not ship out until Monday.
Based on 1 Review
CarolineHandy DandyThis little duo is fantastic! The buff & shine tool made my nails look very healthy and shiny. The shine lasted for about a week, I was surprised it lasted so long. The buffer was easy to maneuver around my nails, I thought it might be too bulky. I usually use a buffer that is shaped like a nail file, but it was perfect. I love love the file!! The case the file comes in sealed the deal for me. I can throw it in my purse without it scratching something or it getting dull. The file shaped my nails without any ragging, my nail turned out very smooth.

While President Obama and many of his Democratic allies in Congress seek to impose strict limitations on civilian firearm sales, the Department of Homeland Security has solicited a bid for 26.1 million rounds of ammunition, adding to the 1.6 billion bullets it has already purchased over the past 10 months alone. Posted on the website FedBid, the agency's Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in Arteia, New Mexico, has commenced an auction for the training ammunition through competitive bids, which have to be a minimum of $10.
Here's a breakdown of what the DHS is seeking:
• Commercial Leading Training Ammo (CLTA) pistol cartridge .40 caliber 165 Grain, jacketed Hollow point(JHP) pp/n P4OHSTS3G OR EQUAL. BRASS CASING 100,000 ROUNDS PRICE PER 1000 ROUNDS WILL INCLUDE DELIVERY.
• Commercial Leading Training Ammo (CLTA) 9MM 115 GRAIN JACKETED HOLLOW POINT P/N 9BP-115 GRAIN JHP OR EQUAL BRASS CASING 100,000 ROUNDS PRICE PER 1000 ROUNDS WILL INCLUDE DELIVERY.
• Commercial Leading Training Ammo (CLTA) PISTOL CARTRIDGE 9MM BALL 124 GRAIN P/N AE9AP OR EQUAL BRASS CASING 40,000 ROUNDS PRICE PER 1000 ROUNDS WILL INCLUDE DELIVERY
FedBid is an online marketplace where businesses and federal, state, and local governments can purchase products and services. According to a Washington Business Journal profile of Ali Saadat, the founder of FedBid, the website administered $1.4 billion in federal transactions last year.
Saadat says the concept of his website has altered the methods people use in the industry to search and respond to business, which often includes requesting proposals and submitting requests for quotes. "That time is gone," Saadat told the Washington Business Journal. "It all happens on the Internet and in a transparent way."

The Internet has had a profound effect on the Media and Entertainment Industry. While some traditional media companies have reacted with fear and uncertainty, other companies are embracing the Internet and adapting business models to ensure their success. For, example traditional one-to-many broadcasters such as TV and newspapers have evolved into platforms of participation where user content, pictures and discussions have become an integrate part of the offering to attract and maintain visitors.
At the same time, startups such as YouTube, Netflix, Twitter and Facebook have quickly emerged as new media heavyweights. With so many new players, competition for audience attention has intensified. And, the speed at which they must innovate and adapt is accelerating. MySQL and other open source products are proven technologies that give organizations the flexibility to innovate faster with less cost.
The BBC News website is one of the most popular news website in the world. The BBC News Live Stats system relies on MySQL to reveal which stories are generating the most interest in different regions of the world in real time.
CBS Interactive is a premier online content network for information and entertainment with more than 250 million people visiting its properties each month. CBS Interactive is using MySQL and open source technologies to improve their speed of innovation.
DirecTV is a broadcast satellite service provider with over 20 million customers. DirecTV relies on MySQL for its interactive TV application allowing users to navigate quickly to additional information they want in a one-screen environment.
The AP is one of the largest and most trusted sources of independent news. MySQL is the backbone of AP Hosted News which is used by approximately 600 affiliate newspapers and broadcasters.
thePlatform is a leading, fast-growing video management and publishing company for broadband, mobile and TV. To scale their Media Publishing System and reduce costs, thePlatform decided to deploy a scale-out database architecture and to migrate the application to MySQL.

WARWICK — On a day that saw this country honor the memory and contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and watch as President Obama mapped out his second-term desires, it seemed appropriate to talk leadership.
Specifically, leadership and the set of guidelines college basketball teams employ when selecting captains, along with what this honor means to those bestowed with said responsibility.
WARWICK — On a day that saw this country honor the memory and contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and watch as President Obama mapped out his second-term desires, it seemed appropriate to talk leadership.
Specifically, leadership and the set of guidelines college basketball teams employ when selecting captains, along with what this honor means to those bestowed with said responsibility.
The theme of Monday's Rhode Island college hoops brunch, held at the Radisson Hotel, centered on the young men and women with a 'C' appearing next to their name. Instead of coaches stepping to the podium to talk about the season to date, the captains were thrust into the spotlight. The messages were succinct and culminated with well wishes for everyone in the room over the balance of the 2012-13 campaign.
Given the mood, we thought it would be a fitting exercise to ask several coaches and players for their thoughts on several matters relating to the captaincy and the weight such a high honor carries.
How do prospective captains distinguish
themselves from their teammates?
Tim O'Shea, head men's coach, Bryant University: "You're with these kids 365 days a year and over a period of time, so you just know. (Bulldogs senior guard) Frankie (Dobbs) is one of those guys who may go into coaching and does the right thing all the time. It's not always about points and assists; it's the leadership he provides.
"When you have a fifth-year guy like Frankie, it allows your team to be the best it can be. Sometimes that could result in a .500 season or less, but he's a tremendous leader. He's an interesting case because despite all the losing we went through the past few seasons, he never quit.
"He actually had a fifth-year option [to transfer to another Division I school and play right away] because he graduated last year, but it's a testament to his character and maturity that he's hung in there. The leadership he's provided is one of the big reasons why we're having success right now."
How are captains selected?
Mike Martin, head men's coach, Brown University: "We observed the players from Sept. 5 to Oct. 5 [when the NCAA grants permission for teams to practice on a limited basis], watching closely their work ethic and demeanor. Then they had a team vote and coaches were included, too. It came out that (seniors Matt Sullivan and Tyler Ponticelli along with junior Sean McGonagill) were the overwhelming choices."
Bob Walsh, head men's coach, Rhode Island College: "We actually have an interesting approach. We sit in a room and anybody who wants to be considered has to get up and write their name on the board. Then anybody who wants to nominate somebody else can get up and write that person's name.
"When all the names are on the board – if you don't want your name to be on the board, you can take it off – the players talk if they have something to say about some guys, then they vote. Personally it's important to me [that the players have a strong say in electing captains] because it's their team. Second of all, they are the ones who recognize who they may want to follow."
What are some of the duties a head coach expects his captain(s) to carry out?
Walsh: "Captains for me are technical – they have to meet with the referees and they're the ones who are allowed to ask questions during the game. If practice changes on a moment's notice, they're the ones getting in touch with the guys."
How crucial is it for the captain to understand that he/she is an emissary for the coaches and players?
O'Shea: "Truthfully, if the coach has to be the leader and the captain, chances are you're not going to be very good. Leadership has to come within your group. We're very fortunate to have someone like Frankie who's willing to assume that role.
"A lot of times you have a kid who's capable of being a leader but doesn't want to do it. In Frankie's case, he's embraced it but in a way that everybody on the team looks at him. He doesn't do things in an authoritarian way, trying to tell guys what to do. He leads by example and his teammates follow him."
How do captains view the position they're in?
Frankie Dobbs, senior guard, Bryant University: "I've been a captain at the high school level, but at the Division I level, it's a whole new meaning. You not only set the example on the court, but off the court as well, whether it's socially or making sure to go to study hall.
"Chemistry is one of those unknown variables that doesn't appear on the stat sheet, but it's important to have cohesiveness. I definitely play the role of mediator between the coaches and my teammates.
"In some respects, I'm able to relate to the players more than the coaches do and that allows me to relay the way the coaches say some things in a different fashion. It's important to translate (the orders from the top) depending on the teammate's personality or way of thinking."
Rob Alers, sophomore guard, CCRI: "You want to make guys focus on the main point of what they're doing. The basketball team is my second family and you want to make sure that you do the things that will allow you to have success on the court.
"Just follow my lead and the good example I try to set. The message to your teammates has to be positive because you want them to follow in your footsteps," remarked Alers, a 2010 graduate of Central Falls High School.
