I'm thinking of building up a Dragon 650b. I have a 100mm Fox Terralogic fork on my 29er hardtail and I love that fork. The axle-to-crown length is the same on the 100mm 29er fork as on the White Bros 650b 120mm fork that comes stock on the Dragon 650, so it seems like the 100mm 29er would work fine on the Dragon 650b and wouldn't change the geometry at all. And 100mm travel is enough for the riding I do, especially on a hardtail. Is there any reason that the 100mm 29er fork wouldn't work well on the Dragon 650?
Also, how does the White Bros. Aura threshold/platform compare to the Fox Terralogic?

Maximum amount of users?
How many users can share and edit the same project I started? Is there a maximum?
All responses
Hi Andries,
If you have a free account, then you can invite 5 more people to each of your projects. If you have a Premium account, then you can invite 25 more people to each of your projects.
OK thnx Clyde.
But in the case that we have approx 100 users on one project.... what then?
Split up the project?
please your advice
Hi Andries,
Yes. You can divide your projects into smaller, manageable sub-projects. I suggest that each task be assigned to just one directly responsible individual. This way, it would be easier to determine who's responsible for what.
A project with 100 users would typically be a very big one. For most projects of this size, it's normally divided into smaller committees. Say for a product launch, you have the designers, programmers, marketers, and other type of groups. So 100 user would be spread out to different projects.
Of course, these are just assumptions and I'm not aware of your specific use case. So if you can give me more details, I may be able to provide a suggestion suited to your specific need.
Best Regards,
Thanks v.m. Clyde, it's a theatre production with lots of volunteers. I discovered too that it is impossible for one supervisor to check approx. 100 people ;-).
In this case, I could divide the project in:
- Director/Writers/Actors
- Decorbuilders/props and Costume (designers/sewers,
- Technicians (Music/Sound/Lightning),
- PR people (posters/advertising/press and
- Handling (ticketsales/licenses/parking/First Aid/guards).
So 5 committees with 5 directly responsible individuals. We then need 5 Premium accounts I presume??
Kind regards, Andries
If each one of those projects has a supervisor, yes, 5 Premium accounts.
Hi Brendon,
Great and fast support! Top.
Its a deep dark night in Holland and I didn't expect to get an answer at this time. Were do you live?
Clyde mentioned also 'subprojects'. Is that something as an option available in a project?
Regards, Andries
Yes you can make any project a sub-project, but in terms of how sharing works, it would act as a normal project.
And I am in Canada.
Thnx! I will present your software at my client and make a proposal. And test a small project to discover Todoist for myself. Have a nice evening!
Brendon, if i want to share a task with more than 5 persons. Only I need to have the premium account? or all of them?
Hi Cristian,
Free users can share project up to 5 people while premium users can share up to 25 people. If one of you was premium, that should be more than enough. ;-)
Best Regards,

Sea of green growing is the practice of harvesting many small plants, which are matured early so that you can crop out often and get the fastest bud production possible. Instead of the typical growing strategy, where a few plants are grown slowly for a long period of time, sea of green is basically growing lots of plants in the same amount of space. This makes it so there is less time between harvests, but a lower yield per harvest. This method is recommended if you're living paycheck to paycheck, and it's hard to pay your electricity bills.
The best way to grow sea of green is to start one crop while another is maturing. This way, you'll have constant harvests all year long. Generally speaking, about 1 mature plant per square foot is adequate for SoG growing. While plants are seedlings/small, you can do more like 4 plants per square foot. 1 square foot is perfect because it allows the tops of plants to grow big and strong, but doesn't allow for many lower-level branches. This is fine because low branches don't get much light when grown indoors, and won't grow well anyways. If you plan on moving your plants outdoors at some point, SoG is not recommended. If you do choose to grow SoG and move plants outdoors later, give them more than 1 square foot of room, so that the lower branches can grow without blockage.
If you start all or most of the plants at the same time, they will create a canopy of foliage. This absorbs almost all of the light, regardless of the type of lamps you're using. With this strategy, the goal is to capitalize on the available light, and produce as quick as possible. Since most light goes to the leaves and bud, often times plants grown in SoG will have weak limbs. To counter this, you can use nylon poultry fence or another trellising material to help support the plants. Especially when bud starts to develop, plants often become droopy. Stakes can be used too, but are not recommended as they can be hard to install in the middle plants.
Most growers want big plants. It's obvious why they do – the bigger the plant, the bigger the yield (in most cases). However, for smaller growing areas, a SoG strategy, which prefers smaller, quick-maturing plants, is preferable. If done right, plants grown in this manner will mature within 3-4 months – that's from germination to crop-out. And, with SoG, you can fit 12 plants, or even 24 if you use shelves, in the same space you'd normally fit 3-5 plants. A good Sea of Green setup can have you cropping out every 30-45 days.
Keep in mind that it's not all about the size of the plant, but rather, the maturity time and the quality of the bud. With SoG, twice as many plants, grown half as big as normal plants, will fill a growing area twice as fast. This means that you can essentially crop out twice as fast as with normal growing methods. After a while you will figure out how to determine what starts are early-flowering. When you figure that out, only pick the "winners" of the bunch, and throw those into a SoG setup.
Most growers use 6" square containers for SoG growing. This will allow for about 4 plants per square foot. Personally, I like to use cat boxes. They are available at Target for about $3 each. You can plant about 4 per square foot in these (when plants are in vegetative seedling stage). Planting like this, you can fit up to 48 seedlings in a 12 square foot closet per shelf. With 2-3 shelves, that's 96-144 seedlings in one small closet!
For SoG setups during the flowering stage, about 1 plant per square foot is recommended. This gives plants plenty of room to grow, but also allows for the quickest growing possible. If you allow more space than that, it will take plants longer to fill the available space, resulting in more overall energy costs, and longer times between harvests. Growing with less than 1 square foot per plant is also not recommended, as plants will be crowded and often will produce less overall.
If you want your plants to grow a little bushier, you can actually train your plants. To do this, use twist ties or string to secure branches in the pattern you want. The easiest way to do this is to wrap a tie around the top of a plant, and pull it over until the tip is bent over at about 90-180 degrees. Next, attach this group of bushy plant to the main stem, lower down on the same plant. Leave the plant in this position for about a week, and release the plant after that. This will help plants grow bushier and end up taking up less vertical space, and filling your sea of green quicker. This method is actually more technical than you might think. When the top of a plant is pulled down, it actually releases a hormone in the plant that allows it to bush out from all the lower-level internodes.
Usually with Sea of Green, you harvest the top of the plans (called the cola). Bottom branches are usually trimmed down, so that air can flow freely under the thick plant tops. When you trim the lower branches, you can use them for clones. These are actually ideal clones, and take root very well. Plus, the lower branches will regenerate very quickly after flowering has started, so it's the best place to take clones from.

Grand Theft Auto V to Follow Halo 4's PC Absence? - Nick's Gaming View Episode #105
- Details
- Category: Nick's Gaming View
- Written by Nick McCandless
Grand Theft Auto V to possibly follow the route of Halo 4 and abandon PC, Star Wars: The Old Republic goes free-to-play, and Wii U's software preorders more than double that of the original Wii, THIS IS NICK'S GAMING VIEW!
Hello everyone and welcome to Nick's Gaming View, you are here with your host, Nick McCandless. Just weeks after 343 Industries broke the hearts of many PC gamers by stating no plans for a PC version of Halo 4 were intact, Rockstar Games has added to the sickness by stating the following in regards to Grand Theft Auto V "…we're currently focused on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game and don't have any details to share about a PC version at this time." While this doesn't necessarily mean a PC version will not release, a day-and-date release alongside the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 seems unlikely.
In better news for PC gamers, Electronic Arts has relaunched Star Wars: The Old Republic as a free-to-play title to gamers worldwide. Providing the experience of all classes through level 50 at no charge, those currently subscribed with an ongoing paid subscription will receive complimentary cartel coins and those unsubscribed that reactivate their subscription by December 20th will be granted complimentary cartel coins for their prior paid months.
Wrapping up Nick's Gaming View, according to GameStop's preorder figures, Nintendo has achieved a 2.4:1 ratio in regards to the software titles preordered per Wi U console, more than double of that of the original Wii. Mainly in part to the stronger launch lineup including titles such as ZombiU and New Super Mario Bros. U, it will be interesting to see if Nintendo can keep these numbers up as if there was anything to knock the Wii for number-wise, it was certainly its software sales compared to units sold.

The Socialist Plot to Make You Eat Your Veggies
The vegetables are coming, my friends. Green, gassy, fibrous vegetables. They aren't buttered. Or salted. And this time, they mean business.
Last week, flush with his victory in a lawsuit challenging the president's health care initiative, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli announced gravely that "if we cross this line with health care now—this unconstitutional line—where the government can force us to buy a private product and say it's for our own good, then we'll have given the government the power to force us to buy other products: cars, gym memberships, asparagus. The list goes on." Broccoli? Belgian endive? The list indeed goes on.
And it's not just crazy Ken Cuccinelli being crazy Ken Cuccinelli, you know. Dahlia Lithwick goes on, illustrating the fear spreading across the entire conservative spectrum:
Using the same logic, columnist George Will conjured the dread specter of the state brandishing broccoli when he wrote at the start of this month that if congressional power to regulate interstate commerce "is infinitely elastic, Congress can do anything—eat your broccoli, or else—and America no longer has a limited government." Don't think there's anything that sinister about broccoli, friends? Think again. That broccoli is just a front for the New World Order.
Think about it. If the asparagus and broccoli are really coming to knock down our doors and kidnap our children, can helicopters loaded with cauliflower really be that far behind? And what of the eggplant in night-vision goggles? If we're soon to be governed by a totalitarian taxonomy of toxic greens, who—one wonders—will sound the warning against the tyrannical field peas?
I, for one, welcome our fresh green overlords.
One comment
I hate asparagus. Why people hate broccoli, I don't know. You can't rid the horrid flavor of asparagus by smothering it in hollandaise sauce. Broccoli doesn't have an offensively pungent and bitter flavor like asparagus does. Why broccoli is more vilified than asparagus remains a mystery to me. Maybe its that asparagus is too bourgie.

Kenneth Heineman discussed Put Your Bodies Upon the Wheels: Student Revolt in the 1960s, published by Ivan R. Dee. In his new book, Professor Heineman explores the social, cultural, and economic forces that became a catalyst for college campus protests in the sixties. He asserts that student uprisings and campus protests were partially responsible for the dividing socioeconomic and cultural lines within American politics. The author also writes that as these protesting groups gained strength in numbers and media coverage, their demonstrations moved towards violence. After the presentation the author answered questions from members of the audience. close

By TOM McCOURTSun Advocate reporter
A public hearing regarding the city's proposal to raise sewer rates was the main topic of the East Carbon council meeting on Feb. 8.
Mayor Orlando LaFontaine along with councilmembers Darlene Kuhns and David Maggio reported that they had met with state water board officials a second time regarding payment of the city's debt.
East Carbon borrowed heavily in the early 1990s to upgrade the city's sewer and water systems.
The city was counting on a pledge from the East Carbon Development Corporation that tippage fees from the landfill would be more than sufficient to repay the loans.
But hard times have fallen on ECDC and the trickle down economic effect has put East Carbon City in a tight spot. The money isn't there to repay the loans.
The mayor and city councilmembers said the meeting with state officials went well and the problems are being addressed. The water board representatives were understanding and willing to work with the city.
However, the water board is insisting that the city raise the sewer rate by a minimum of $5.50 per month.
Maggio said the mayor and councilmembers had done their best job of negotiating and he was reasonably satisfied with the results.
All tippage fees collected from ECDC have been pledged to pay the debt and the city has until December 2006 before an annual loan payment is due, indicated Maggio.
By then, the city, state and ECDC should have a better idea of what the future holds regarding the possibilities of repaying the $6 million debt.
To help state officials understand the situation in East Carbon, Maggio presented a profile of one street in the city, detailing who lived there and what their income status was.
A study has shown that 81 percent of the residents of East Carbon are senior citizens, most are on fixed incomes and only 19 percent are working class families.
Maggio said the city has a large population of widows and families who qualify for low-income assistance.
State officials were told that citizens of the community could not absorb a $6 million debt through utility rates or taxes
Raising the sewer fee by $5.50 will still leave the city with one of the lowest rates in Carbon County, pointed out Kuhns.
She said the state officials had originally asked the city to raise rates by at least $26.
Everything is in the process of being worked out and citizens of East Carbon should not be overly concerned, explained LaFontaine.
The mayor said the rate hike would not go into effect for at least one month since the council has not approved the increase.
After answering a few questions from East Carbon residents, the mayor closed the public hearing.
A motion was then made and passed to table the issue until the next council meeting when the rate increase will be voted on by city officials,
East Carbon Police Chief Sam Leonard then appeared before the council and presented them with a formal letter asking that patrolman Philip Holt be promoted to the rank of sergeant within the department. Leonard said that Holt had been with the department for 11 years and had earned the promotion and pay raise. He also said that having a sergeant on the force would meet the requirements of the table of organization of the city police department.
The council unanimously passed a resolution granting Holt the promotion, pay raise, and title. The council also agreed to buy new defibrillator batteries for units carried in city patrol cars.
Leonard then told the council that the city police had been able to acquire 3 laptop computers for use in police cars through a grant from the homeland security agency.
In other business, the council discussed creating a campground and facilities for the ATV trail being constructed through the city. Possible locations and means of funding were discussed. The council also agreed to send councilwoman Darma Lopez to a bureau of criminal investigation conference in Cedar City.
The focus of the meeting then turned to state highway U123 from the East Carbon junction on highway 6 to East Carbon city. The mayor introduced Hugh Kirkham, a district engineer for UDOT, who made a presentation about planned updates to the road. Kirkham gave the council a copy of a proposed work plan for U123 that covers the next several years. He answered questions from both the city council and concerned citizens.
A major issue with East Carbon residents has been the lack of lights, reflectors, and properly painted lines at the highway 6 intersection. Councilwoman Kuhns told Kirkham that not having reflectors at the intersection was a critical safety concern.
Kirkham addressed the issue and promised to have something done immediately. He agreed that reflectors could be installed now while the issue of permanent lighting is being considered. He also agreed that the painted lines on the road are confusing, but told residents that state paint crews could not work in freezing temperatures since the paint freezes before it bonds to the highway surface. He said he would have paint crews on the project as soon as the weather allows.
In other matters, LaFontaine told those assembled that the BLM would be burning brush north of the city in the next few days and citizens should not be concerned by the smoke. He also said that Westridge is mining quite close to the city reservoir now and the situation is being monitored closely. He said that he had recently met with ECDC officials about the two barrels of arsenic that were inadvertently placed in the landfill and then recovered. He said he had asked ECDC officials if they had a long range forecast of future business at the landfill, but they had no information to give him.
In a final matter of business, the council voted to hire Jeremiah Humes as the new city attorney.

Some areas of the Country (Scotland, Scottish Highlands & UK Islands), BFPO and Non-UK mainland addresses may still be charged, (as defined by the delivery services which vary from company to company and around the UK) this is because Carrier rates are higher and additional charges may also apply to some larger, bulkier or heavier orders.

The Magazine
God Helps Us
America remains as religious as you thought.
Jul 29, 2013, Vol. 18, No. 43 • By WILLIAM MCKENZIE
Latinos could influence the way evangelicalism shapes national politics, and we're seeing it already in the immigration debate. Latino evangelicals like Reverend Samuel Rodriguez are speaking out for a broad reform of policies, not just tighter security along the border. Look for more such influence. Look, also, for the role that baby boomers could play in religion in general. The older people get, the more likely they are to turn to some kind of faith, a point that Newport backs up with data. If those of us who are boomers follow this time-honored trend, we could become a growth industry for churches and other houses of faith. I had not thought of the possibility before reading this book, but what an irony if boomers, a generation known in part for self-absorption, should fuel religious growth on our way out.
The part of the book that caught me most off-guard, and that is worth the cover price, is the section that deals with the link between religion and health. I was genuinely skeptical when I started reading Newport's explanation of data that show how people of faith tend to enjoy better health. I still don't know what to do with the point: All sorts of people could use it to create a new prosperity gospel, preaching that virtuous living leads to good health. But what would that mean to the religious person who ends up with cancer?
Still, the research that Newport presents is compelling. There is, for example, a table that shows that Americans who consider themselves "very religious" enjoy higher rates of "well-being" than both moderately religious and nonreligious Americans. The Gallup-Healthways "Well-Being Index" shows very religious Americans reporting higher rates of emotional and physical health, as well as greater rates of healthy behaviors. The same is true of the correlation between the degree of religiousness and worry, stress, and anger. Very religious Americans experienced less of those emotions than the moderately religious or nonreligious.
Some of these findings make me squeamish: You can almost hear the religious marketing agents hyping the connection between faith and health, promising a stress-free life. (Of course, the last time I checked, some of the greatest martyrs experienced a good deal of stress.) Still, the data show that something is going on. And that is the compelling part of God Is Alive and Well, which you would expect from a Gallup editor's work. But Newport presents his information clearly in this easy-to-read book, a book that is important to read, as well, if you want to find out more about the state of religion in America.
William McKenzie, a columnist for the Dallas Morning News, moderates the Texas Faith blog at DallasNews.com.

NEW YORK (WCBS 880) – New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg confirms he has only two pairs of work shoes for the past ten years.
LISTEN: WCBS 880's Rich Lamb reports
WCBS 880's Rich Lamb reports that His Honor says both pairs are black loafers. One pair is penny loafers. The other is loafers with a tassel.
Asked for more about his non-triple-E's, his honor quipped, "I think, for security reasons, I really cannot talk about my shoes as to whether or not I have backup."
The mayor has his loafers resoled and re-heeled and declared it's fair to say he's not the shoe industry's best customer.

New around here? WoW Rookie has your back! Get all our collected tips, tricks and tactics for new players in the WoW Rookie Guide.
At the WoW Insider reader meetup we threw at BlizzCon 2010, I was asked a simple question. "Mike," an eager attendee asked me, "what the best way to get caught up on the information for Cataclysm?" I was obviously a bit surprised, but the question resonated for me. After all, in a lot of ways, Cataclysm is completely rewriting the world as we know it. Classes are changing, talent trees are changing, and there will be a whole series of new raid bosses. Of course, none of these are things that we haven't encountered before in previous expansions.
But then again, even the landscape of Azeroth is going to be irrevocably changed, scarred by the passage of Deathwing. Things will never be the same again. So if you're new to the game or even returning from a hiatus, it must feel like an immense amount of information to try and understand. Even more, once you've logged into the game and started playing, you need resources at your fingertips to understand what's happening around you.
So this week in WoW Rookie, we're going to take the time to talk about where you can go to get information.
How do I find Mankrik's wife?
There is a legend in The Barrens of Kalmidor. An orc stands, lonely, consumed by fear for his loved one. This orc is Mankrik and he has a simple request: Find his wife. The problem with this simple gesture, however, is that many people find Mankrik's wife really, really difficult to ... ahem ... find.
The general answer for many players had been to ask in the zone chat channel. But there are a few simple tools to help you locate quest objects. We'll talk about Wowhead first, because it's an incredibly versatile tool. If you punch in the name of the NPC, quest, or item you're trying to find, the simple search results will help you navigate to your goal. Wowhead isn't the only database, of course, but it's one of most popular. That's significant because the comment sections are full of great information about how to defeat bad guys and navigate treacherous landscapes. The comments section usually ends up acting like a mini-guide and will help you figure out things you might have overlooked.
Are there any in-game options?
Of course, Blizzard does its best to make sure that you can use in-game tools to get the job done. First, there's the quest text itself that will help you find your way, with directions like "north of the old mill." The text uses familiar landmarks to help navigate you to your goal.
But that's not always enough. And so Blizzard has now supplied us with in-game maps and quest markers. The in-game map displays your available quests on the right side, the quest text at the bottom, and a nicely labeled map in the center. While the game doesn't tell you explicitly in which order to complete the quests, you can get a pretty good idea of which quests are closest to you.
But what about the expansion?
Of course, the bigger question is, "How do I keep up with the changes?" If you're just now coming back to the game, check out WoW Insider's basic answer to What is Cataclysm? Once you've gotten caught up on the basic ideas of the expansion, then take some time to check out our Rookie's Guide to 4.0.1. Patch 4.0.1 carried an immense amount of the mechanical changes for Cataclysm and resources about that patch will help get you caught up on game alterations.
That probably won't be enough to make you feel like you're living in the now, though. Keep an eye on WoW Insider's Guide to Cataclysm, where we'll be rounding up even more information as the expansion gets even closer. While we're reviewing great summaries of the expansion, though, we can't leave out that master of data, MMO-Champion. Additionally, MMO-Champion's talent builder, Wowtal, is a great resource for playing with new talent builds. It will even allow you port that information straight into the game.
What if I want to ask questions?
I'd suggest your first resource should be The Queue. Not only does WoW Insider's intrepid staff of journalists and experts do its best to answer reader questions, but the commenters tend to be equally helpful. With this kind of resource at your fingertips, if there's an answer to your question, chances are someone knows it.
But if that doesn't get it done, there are always the official forums. Answers can be tough to come by on the official forums, but they're a good place to go for information you can't find elsewhere.
Again, what about in-game options?
One of the best reasons to join a guild is to help you through challenging quests and answer questions about the game. These are your friends and compatriots in battle, and they are often one of your best resources for a little assistance in game. That might manifest as having someone show up to help you kill the monster, or even just friendly words to explain a great technique.
Of course, you need to find a guild. But The Classifieds are a great resource for that, and it seems like there's always someone advertising in trade chat. Take your time and find a good home, because they're going to be some of your best allies in game.
Visit the WoW Rookie Guide for links to everything you need to get started as a new player, from how to control your character and camera angles when you're just starting out, to pulling together enough cash for mid-level expenses such as mounts and dual specialization, to what to do when you finally hit level 80.

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore.-Klamath County Fire District No. 1 said it is facing a financial deficit.
Fire Chief, Jim Wenzel, said though costs have gone up, 77 percent of the district's funding comes from property tax revenues, and those have gone down. "We have projected that we're gonna run out of funding probably in late May or sometime during June," said Wenzel.
The Fire Chief said last year KCFD#1 had to file a balanced budget, but had to cut six firefighter positions to do so. Wenzel said, "Luckily those positions were vacant at the time, but because the contract wasn't settled we have to continue to fill those spots and we have to do that with hiring people and also with overtime we didn't budget for."
International Association of Fire Fighters Local 890 President and Firefighter, Shane Malone, agreed that overtime pay is one reason the district is facing financial troubles. "If they put on five guys starting Feb. 1, I believe, so in five months, it was gonna knock over $300,000 of their $727,000 debt out, and we estimated if they'd just done that by itself last July when we told them they should be hiring people instead of running us short, we wouldn't even be having this discussion," said Malone.
The Fire Chief and everyone else above Captain status, is not a Union member, but is part of the District's Administrative Staff. Every three years, both parties negotiate their contract. The last contract period ended June 30, 2012 and the Union has filed for arbitration, because they can't come to terms on a current contract.
"We're looking at things such as the length of the contract and the minimum daily staffing and, uh, pay issues and also the shift schedule," said the Fire Chief.
The Local 890 President said the main reason they couldn't agree was the minimum staffing. "Throughout the bargaining process they wanted to eliminate what we call a minimum staffing. For us it's a huge safety issue and it's also safety of the public, having a minimum number of firefighters on duty for the number of calls we have and the size of calls we have, you know. Firefighting is manpower intensive. We need people and if we're running short we're not gonna be able to do the job," said Malone.
Malone said, in an attempt to avoid arbitration, the Union gave a little in Nov. "[...] but they didn't like the stipulation that if they took a raise we would get one too and then on the staffing we wanted, originally we were asking we would go suspend the staffing until June of 2015, but if they lost anybody through retirement or quitting, that they wouldn't fill those vacancies until our vacancies were filled and they didn't like that, so we actually deleted that in our final offer for arbitration," said Malone. The Union President said it was also willing to suspend raises for its members for two years, putting them three years between raises.
Malone said, regardless of the offers the Union gave, the District still wanted to remove a minimum requirement on firefighters on duty. "They've never actually given us a number. They want the staffing minimums gone. They did hand us a piece of paper that showed how we would respond from current staffing and removing one guy at a time 'til it got as low as 11. They said they would even go lower if needed," said Malone.
Malone said, according to the only recognized national standard, NPFA 1710, put out by the National Fire Protection Association, "for any 2,000 square foot residential structure fire, they recommend having 15 people. If you're having to run a truck operation, 17 people. So with 16 on duty, that leaves one extra guy and we also run medical calls. So we're running short now, um, also in that standard, we should have four-men engines, we're only running three and we're not wanting to drop lower than we are. When we think you know, some staff cuts would be prudent [...] we feel we're a little bit top heavy," said Malone.
Chief Wenzel explained, if fire personnel was reduced, there would still be three-firefighter crews. "Each crew has a minimum of three people. We haven't gone below that minimum. So the crews are trained to effectively fight fire with crew sizes for the individual crews at three firefighters, we would just have less of those three-person crews," said Wenzel.
Malone said cutting crews would lengthen response times and said it's not right for Union members to "take the brunt" of the deficit when it was mismanagement of finances at the Administrative level that got the District into the deficit. "We are the ones that have to make all the sacrifices while they're making none," said Malone. He added, "During bargaining, one of the issues came up, you know, about the overtime. Them wanting to eliminate it. We asked about the Battalion Chiefs' overtime and they said that's different. If it comes out of the same line item, we didn't understand how that was different, but they said they weren't even gonna talk to us about that."
The Union President said the District claimed Fire Station Three and the Administrative Building, Station Six, were both renovated with grant money. "We've used their documents and we've come up with about a $420,000 that's not covered by the grant," said Malone.
He said one of the District's old Fire Marshals was made Project Manager of the Station Three renovation. "I'd estimate over $100,000 probably closer to $140,000 in his wages and benefits, when most departments that are having this kind of a financial problem, one of the Chief Officers will take care of being a Project Manager," said Malone. He added, with a Fire Marshal position now open, the only Deputy Fire Marshal was promoted to fill the vacancy, "He's getting supervisory wages, but supervises nobody. He has an empty department and we're giving those wages to him and paying the old one to be a Project Manager," said Malone.
The Union, according to Malone, was opposed to the building of Station Five by the Running Y. "We didn't feel that was a benefit to the public and it had a direct effect on the firefighter safety," said Malone. He said the station took three firefighters from the core of the city, where stations respond to 2000 calls a year, to put them in Station Five, which gets 100 calls a year. Malone said Station Five now sits abandoned because the district could not afford to keep it staffed, but still costs $150,000 a year to keep.
Malone said, he would think the District would be more prudent after having declared a state of fiscal emergency.
When asked if Klamath County Fire District No. 1 would have to make cuts as a result of the financial deficit, Chief Wenzel said, "It's a little early to tell that. Right now, we don't have any plans to cut any personnel."
Local 890 has requested the mediator return in April to try and agree on a contract before starting arbitration.

These "Back to the Future" quotes come from the classic film that combined the age old desire of wanting to time travel with the fantastic materialism of the '80s: time travel in a DeLorean. Michael J. Fox rocked and we didn't worry about little things like creating a paradox when we time traveled. Crispin Glover played the father of Marty McFly and his character really helped to make this film complete. The film won a Hugo and several Academy Awards, and is preserved by The Library of Congress. These "Back to the Future" quotes are great fun, sometimes poignant and even repeated by such big names as Ronald Reagan.

Numerous individuals frequently ask the question about the Tandem Orientation Program which the Team began over sixteen years ago, as an unified approach and tool to boost, engage and generate target audiences and an attempt to reach out and connect with the American Public. How and Why certain Centers Of Infuences (COI's)are selected or invited to conduct tandem parachute jumps with members of the US Army Parachute Team, Golden Knights Tandem Team?
The Recruiting Brigades work very closely with hundreds of principals, coaches, counselors and influencers at high schools and colleges that are enormous positive contributors to the lives of our future generations. Statistics have proven that partnering with the select right individuals who particpated in these tandem camps and the Army Strong Experience have lead to actionable insights to the recruiting mission.
I would like to elevate this measurable information by sharing a story of a gentleman that was one of our passengers that actually put his life in the hands of our wonderful Soldiers for the experience of his life.
Moore Takes a Flying Leap
Monroe County school administrator learns a lesson to share on post-secondary career training
"It was the most calm, peaceful, serene experience I can remember having, "said Robert Moore, Monroe County Schools' Director of Adult Education and Principal of the Bloomington Graduation School. He was not speaking of an evening on the beach watching the sun set into the ocean during his 2014 summer vacation. Rather, he was describing a skydive he made from 15,000 feet.
Moore, along with 24 other educators from six states, was selected to attend a two-day tour of Fort Knox on June 11 and 12 to learn about the post-secondary career training options in the US Army that are available to young adults. The tour included a tandem jump with the US Army Golden Knights Parachute Team. He was invited by the Bloomington Recruiting Center to participate in the visit hosted by the Army's 3rd Recruiting Brigade, which is headquartered at Fort Knox.
"I amazed at the wide range of careers a person can train for," Moore recalled. "I met soldiers who were mechanics, musicians, paralegals, linguists, marksmen, performers, a chaplain's assistant, and on and on. Basically, if you have an interest and there is a job available, you can train for it in the Army."
On the morning Day 1, Moore and the other educators witnessed ROTC cadets from several universities around the country engage in various qualification tests in the swimming pool and the obstacle course. In the afternoon, the educators were taken to the French Shooting Club, an outdoor range on base, where two members of the US Army Marksmanship Team demonstrated some trick skeet shooting they do for competition. "Then they let us try it. The instructor gave me some great directions on the shotgun, and I hit my first skeet target dead on," he recounted. After the demonstration, the group traveled to an indoor facility, where a simulated pistol range is used by various law enforcement agencies and military personnel for practice and qualification on stationary targets. "I hit it 8 out of 10 times," Moore boasted.
Later that day, the educators met with the 3rd Brigade's Education Services Specialist and a panel of soldiers for a Q&A session. "They all stressed the importance of education and training in whatever field they are pursuing," Moore said. "Pretty much, a soldier must pursue a civilian college education in order to advance in his or her career. Many of the soldiers we met held bachelors and masters degrees. And the fact that the Army pays for this education makes it possible for them to do so."
Day 2 was jump day with the Golden Knights. That morning, after a strongly-advised light breakfast, the educator group gathered at the brigade headquarters for a bus ride to Fort Knox's airfield. There, an instructor from the Golden Knights briefed the visitors on how they would be dressed in the regulation equipment, how the exit and landing will occur, and the risks associated with the skydive. "Then they took us up in the plane three at a time, each with an instructor and a videographer. It turned out to be a long wait for me, because I was the second-to-last group to go," Moore reported. So, skipping the lunch provided, Moore waited patiently.
"Around 2:30, a member of the Golden Knights Tandem Team came to the room where we were waiting and called my name," Moore said. He led Moore to another room and helped him don the gold and black jumpsuit, a harness, and helmet and goggles. He also introduced another member of the team who would serve as the tandem's videographer.
The three climbed into the plane with two other tandems and videographers and began the ascent to 15,000 feet. As the plane drew near to the desired altitude, the instructor hooked his harness to Moore's and tightened the straps. "And I mean it was TIGHT! He was on my back, I was on his front, and we were pressed together like we were one body," recounted Moore. Still in their seats, they practiced several times how they would eventually exit the aircraft. "I'll tell you, from then on I never felt safer. Sitting there strapped to the front of that Golden Knight made me feel very secure, like I could do anything."
Then the time came. Moore and his Golden Knight instructor tied tightly to his back duck walked to the door of the plane. With the videographer already hanging outside the door, the tandem leaped forward and began a 120 mile-per-hour free-fall toward Earth.
"It actually felt like I was flying, not falling. It was amazing. I felt like Superman," Moore remembered. "There was no roller-coaster feeling at all like I thought there might be. Just a strong wind in my face, and all I heard was a loud roar." The videographer—with camera mounted to his helmet—passed below, above, and to the side of the tandem in flight. "How he did that, I don't know. He was all over the place."
After the 45-second free-fall, when the tandem had descended to 5,000 feet, Moore felt a strong tug upward and the videographer vanished. He looked up and saw the strings of the parachute, which had just deployed. "And suddenly the loud roar of the wind gave way to a great silence. It was the quietest quiet I ever heard. We were just floating there at the end of the parachute. My instructor asked, 'so how are you doing, sir?' I responded, 'Well, I didn't eat any lunch, and I'm kind of hungry. Did you bring anything to eat?' We just talked to each other in a normal tone of voice. We didn't have to shout to be heard."
The tandem continued their descent. "I asked the Golden Knight how fast we were now going now. He said we were going about 25 miles per hour forward speed and about 20 miles per hour downward. So the parachute really slowed us down. But again, it felt like we were just floating, not falling. The earth was very slowly rising to me; I was not falling to it. All the while, the sight was spectacular: a complete, unobstructed, panoramic view of sky, sun, clouds, horizon, and earth all in one glance." The instructor pointed out the top of the Federal Gold Depository building and the field where they would eventually land.
Then Moore learned what performance parachuting was all about. The instructor said, "OK, now I'll show you what this thing can do." The tandem did a spin and dive maneuver to the right and another to the left. "Now that was definitely a roller-coaster feeling. That's for sure!" Then they returned to their peaceful, downward descent.
As the objects on Earth grew larger and larger, it was time to prepare for the landing on Brooks Field. As instructed, Moore pulled his knees up and pointed his legs straight outward. The tandem approached the field, and the instructor's feet made a gentle touchdown on the turf. The 7-minute flight was over. After unhooking from one another, instructor and student rose from the ground for more pictures and an interview by the videographer who awaited them.
"It was an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime experience," Moore said of the two-day visit. "If I learned anything, it was that the Army really stresses education, training, and safety above all. They really take care of their people. Their standards for training and safety are so high; they really do minimize danger far more than we do in the civilian world. And the education benefits—you just can't beat them. Soldiers told us, 'I didn't pay a dime for my college degree.' If parents and students are really serious about exploring all options for funding a college education, they do themselves a favor by at least exploring that with a military recruiter in addition the college recruiters. I mean, with so many college students graduating with such enormous debt from loans and no job prospects in the fields they were trained for, you ought to get ALL the options out on the table and pick the best one."
Moore added, "They showed us that young adults don't even have to make military service their whole career. Even for a short time commitment, they can get a college education, learn some marketable career skills employers want, get some valuable work experience for the civilian job market, and give back to their country."

Hurley was brought to Santa Rosa after the collapsing deck incident. Hurley believed that he was responsible for the deaths of several people after he stepped onto an overcrowded deck. During his first time there, he interacted with Dave, his imaginary friend. Dave attempted to convince Hurley that he needed to escape. Hurley stayed and was eventually released from the institute.
Libby at Santa Rosa.
Charlie came to visit Hurley at the institute. Hurley said that he saw him at the convenience store, and got freaked out by this because he had died. Charlie told him that "they need you". Hurley did not want to hear about this and counted to five. When he reached five, Charlie had disappeared.
Sayid killed a man outside of Santa Rosa who was spying on Hurley. He broke him out of the institute. Before he left, he finished a game of chess he was playing, with Mr. Eko.

In "The Life of Death of Jeremy Bentham", Santa Rosa Mental Health Institute was revealed to be located in Santa Rosa, California. Sounds obvious, but this is a blooper. Santa Rosa is located in Northern California, just 50 miles north of San Francisco, or around 400 miles from Los Angeles. Santa Rosa Mental Health Institute is supposed to be located in Souther California, near L.A. Here is a quote from "Because You Left", by the anchorwoman on the news: "The victim was found shot in his car on the grounds of the Santa Rosa hospital, a private mental health care facility outside Los Angeles."

Since there have been few dissenting opinions so far, I assume I am also the person to whom "ew - call might not ever return" should be attributed. (I didn't think I said that, though.) I should clarify exactly what I am worried about with C API calls. I don't care if they never return, which is already possible since it could invoke some Python code that goes into an infinite loop. I am worried about a C API call that itself never returns even though one of its parents does. I am worried, as Christian explained, about a C API call that receives the "unwind token" when it isn't expecting it. I do not understand how we keep Python's simple, clean C API and also support continuations. I have been waiting for the PEP because I hope it will explain this issue.

The route to mainstream acceptance of SM> stackless and realization of this thought will be through a PEP. SM> I wouldn't give up at this point. Indeed, fast and efficient user-level threads seem like a fine idea. I do not understand, again, how stackless + continuations is required to implement them. Just recently wrote: "Continuations aren't even needed to do full coroutining and uthreading." Is even stackless required? I hope the PEP will explain this requirement. While we're going for a full disclosure of things I don't understand :-), I hope someone will explain why the continuation interface is so much more complicated than call/cc. If Python were to adopt a continuation interface, it would seem desirable to use the same interface as Scheme and ML, two languages with long experience using continuations (mostly to implement threads and exceptions).
