Oil spotted in Great Salt Lake wetlands
Crude oil from the Red Butte Creek pipeline spill appears to have turned up in the Great Salt Lake wetlands.
Though a spokesman from Chevron rejected any "linkage" between the weekend spill and sheens that have turned up in the Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area at the lake's southeastern edge, unprecedented petro-glosses have surfaced there since Saturday.
That's when the Davis County Health Department and the wildlife area manager set absorbent booms on the water to protect the wetlands along with families of mallard, redhead and cinnamon teal ducks now nesting in the marshes.
"I'm interested to see what the third-party testing shows," said Rich Hansen, manager of the 12,000-acre sanctuary, who added no harmful impact has been detected.
Also on Tuesday, Salt Lake County closed the Jordan River (not the trail) to public use while crews collect and monitor the oil. The closure -- from 1300 South to 500 North -- remains in place until further notice at Salt Lake City's request.
About a dozen Chevron workers trekked through west-side neighborhoods along the Jordan on Tuesday evening, handing out fliers urging them to stay out of the river in the area.
"We take seriously our commitment to residents," Mayor Ralph Becker said, "to see that our city's unique riparian corridor is restored to its original state."
Officials also
said they so far have collected 21,000 gallons of the estimated 33,000 gallons of spilled oil.
Federal, state and local agencies are scheduled to huddle today to discuss how to proceed with cleaning the oiled streambeds and backyards along the Red Butte Creek corridor and at Liberty Park's pond. And tallying the cleanup costs and damage to homes, wildlife and the 20-mile stretch of stream and river is ongoing.
Hansen drove to the Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area area Saturday morning as soon as he heard about the spill on the other side of the valley. He thought about how Red Butte Creek feeds into the Jordan River, which in turn drains into the Great Salt Lake wetlands.
He wondered if oil would blanket the marshes and coat the birds and chicks in it -- nothing short of a disaster scenario for millions of migratory birds and the habitat they depend, and for the people who look to the lake for respite, recreation and, in the case of brine shrimpers, their livelihoods.
Instead, Hansen found the rainbow sheen -- far bigger than the gas- or oil-stained runoff that periodically stains the wetlands.
"If that is indeed oil from that spill, all I can say is that we've got it pretty well contained," he said. "It seems the booms are doing their jobs."
Hansen said a Chevron official told him late Tuesday that the company's tests had showed the sheen was unrelated to the crude oil that leaked from a ruptured pipe near Red Butte Garden.
Reports that the lakeside sheen came from the pipeline spill are "just false," Chevron spokesman Dan Johnson said. He added that the Jordan River "is exposed to lots of things" and there was no proof the oil in the lake's wetlands had come from Red Butte.
Lewis Garrett, director of the Davis County Health Department, agreed that he had no water-quality test results proving the spill had produced the sheen. The timing prompted his conclusion.
Still, he said, whether there is a connection is irrelevant since the sheen poses no threat to people, the wildlife or the wetlands.
"We're swinging at gnats here."
Tribune reporter Mike Gorrell contributed to this story.
Samples taken from Red Butte Creek and the Jordan River after the weekend oil spill indicate the tainted water is not "an immediate threat to human health and aquatic life," state water-quality officials reported Tuesday.
Walt Baker, director of the Utah Division of Water Quality, said a dozen samples examined by the Utah Department of Health's Unified State Lab suggest the spilled crude oil no longer poses a significant health threat to people or aquatic life. Benzene, toluene and other toxic constituents of crude oil largely have evaporated.
"Those are the ones most harmful to humans and aquatic wildlife," he said, noting that levels detected were lower than what his office expected to see. "Now we need to start drilling down deeper."
That means even more detailed testing to determine the extent of contamination from other oil components and the potential long-term environmental impacts.
Baker said the samples were taken from Red Butte Creek, Liberty Park pond and the Jordan River.
Water-quality inspectors also took another set of samples late Monday at these and other locations and sent those results to a commercial lab, he added. Those results are expected today.

San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom is considering a plan to temporarily close down certain streets to car traffic, creating public space for pedestrians -- similar to the successful Ciclovia that takes place weekly in Bogota, Colombia.
"Such a street closure program would provide cheap, healthy and safe recreation opportunities for residents in urban areas, according to Wade Crowfoot, the mayor's director of climate protection initiatives."
"The program, tentatively titled Sunday Healthways, would include other activities. Pedestrians could also enroll in tai chi or yoga lessons, as part of planned activity stations that would line the street closures, Crowfoot said."
"Crowfoot stressed that no street closures would be implemented without lengthy planning processes with neighborhood groups and elected officials. Because of the necessary planning stages, he said he was unsure when the program would be implemented."

Western Kentucky University Head Football Coach David Elson's contract has been recommended for a four-year extension, Director of Athletics Dr. Camden Wood Selig announced today. Selig made the recommendation to WKU President Dr. Gary Ransdell who agreed to take it to the Board of Regents at their meeting on January 30, 2009. Elson's contract, which previously ran through the 2012 season, would now run through the 2016 season if the recommendation is approved.
"I have total confidence in David Elson and his ability to lead our football program to new heights at the Football Bowl Subdivision level," Selig said. "We want to win, we expect to win, and I am confident that we will win at this level. However, it is not appropriate to evaluate our program based solely on wins and losses at this stage of our transition. We must continue to develop in a manner that increases the likelihood of sustained success, and this past season was historic and not without achievements. While playing the most difficult schedule in the school's history, we had our second-highest attendance total ever while completing first-class renovations to Houchens Industries – L.T. Smith Stadium. As we move forward and continue to recruit more student-athletes at the I-A level, it is vital that the person leading the football program be a visionary who understands and embraces the awaiting challenges. Based on David's previous success at WKU coupled with his passion, dedication and loyalty to our university, I have no doubt we have the perfect person leading the charge for our football program."
Elson has served as WKU head coach for the last six seasons, compiling a 39-32 mark. He previously served as a WKU assistant coach for seven seasons and was defensive coordinator for the Hilltoppers' 2002 I-AA National Championship team, the school's only team national title in any sport. In Elson's 13 total years at WKU, the Hilltoppers have won 64.1 percent of their games (100-56) while also emphasizing academics. WKU's 945 multi-year APR in football through 2006-2007, the most recent data available, was higher than every Sun Belt member and is 14 points higher than the NCAA average in the sport.
"I appreciate the commitment of Dr. Ransdell and Dr. Selig and the confidence they have shown me," Elson said. "We know where we were, where we are and the challenges we face to get to where we want to be. We will get there sooner than some think, but we need to do everything the right way and not cut any corners. Our approach is to do it once and do it right. No one is more disappointed in our record this past season than I am, but I see progress and improvement in many areas outside of wins and losses. I believe in this program more than ever, and I have no doubt we will reach our goals of conference championships and bowl appearances."
WKU is one of only 120 institutions competing at the 1-A level in football and will be eligible for a bowl berth and the Sun Belt Conference championship in 2009. NCAA legislation has capped future I-A additions, and football membership will remain at the exclusive 120 mark until at least 2013. Future home football opponents include teams from the Big Ten (Indiana), Big East (South Florida), and Big 12 (Iowa State) along with unique service academy match ups with Army and Navy.
Elson was named head coach on March 5, 2003. He replaced Jack Harbaugh, who resigned after 14 years at the helm of the program. He was the longest-tenured assistant on Harbaugh's staff, working seven years on the Hill with the team's defensive backs, the last two as defensive coordinator. At the time of his hiring, Elson was the youngest head coach in Division I football. Prior to the school's announcement in November 2006 that it would move up to the NCAA I-A/FBS division, the Toppers advanced to the NCAA I-AA playoffs on six occasions — including a string of five straight appearances from 2000-04.

It was Team HOH's first Nike run club session yesterday. We met at Nike Running in Box Park, Shoreditch, at 6.15pm, put our bags in the bag drop and met up with about 20 other women for a warm up on the artificial lawn outside the store.
The instructor told us we would be running down to Tower Hill (1.2 miles away) and then doing interval training – sprinting up hill – before running back to the store. Before we had time to reconsider, the instructor had strapped on a backpack with speaker attached and we were off.
Music blasting, the pace was quite manageable and we arrived at Tower Hill within 10 mins. This was where it got tricky. In groups of 4, we took turns in sprinting to the top of the hill, and then walking back to the bottom. We repeated this 10 times before quickly pausing to take a group photo and then running back to the store for 7.30pm – our legs were feeling a fair amount heavier now. Back at Box Park we were handed a (much needed) bottle of water and did a quick warm down stretch before finishing.
It was a great workout and made training much more enjoyable as part of a group. We're all certainly feeling a few aches today but can't wait to get back out for the next run session on Thursday – who's joining us?!

Four of the bigger allergenic foods are gluten (wheat, rye an d barley), dairy, eggs and soy.
If you don't want to be tested, you might consider taking all dairy and gluten out of your diet for about 3 weeks and see if your symptoms change. It could be very worth it.
Some of the other symptoms that go allow with food problems can include fatigue, rashes, bloating, weight gain no matter how little is eaten, brain fog and a host of other miserable problems.
FView Thread
The one question I would ask your cardiologist is if small changes in your blood pressure might cause you a problem. Your BP is partly based on the amount of fluids you take in or lose. The flux of water from the tissues to the intestinal tract (and subsequently out of your body) will slightly change your BP, but it probably won't be a problem.
You also might want to talk to your doc about taking some probiotics. They can help normalize the intestinal flora and that in turn can in some individuals help to normalize bowel function.View Thread
It seems that 4 of the major 'offender' food groups are gluten (wheat, rye and barely), dairy (the casein in dairy), eggs and soy.
Food can nourish, but as surprising as it can seem it can also 'poison' a person's system.View Thread
Metamucil is also something that is typically used to help someone become more regular, or have more frequent bowel movements.
What am I missing, or mis-reading? Do you typically have problems with diarrhea or constipation?View Thread
You'd be surprised at just how many individuals find that their IBS isn't IBS but food intolerance issues.View Thread
If you want to find out if gluten or other foods could be part of the problem, you can't just cut down on the food group. It has to be fully removed from the diet. The reaction to certain foods is based on an antibody response. Therefore even a 'speck' of the substance can cause a reaction that may not show up for days, but last for weeks-to-months. So it's not a simple thing to pin down.
Try testing, but also keep in mind that the tests aren't 100 percent perfect. So if a test comes up negative, but you still suspect a certain food group, eliminate it completely from your diet and wait at least 4 weeks to see if you see a change. Also keep in mind that it can take about 1 1/2 years to completely clear the 'ravages' certain food groups - like gluten - can do out of your system.View Thread
A problem with the testing for this problem is it doesn't always return a positive result even when the condition is present, so trying an exclusion diet can be very helpful in figuring it out.
Consider taking gluten out of your diet for several weeks and see what happens. If that makes few changes, add it back (monitoring the result) and then try taking dairy out of the diet. Although changing your diet can be a difficult thing to do, the results could be very worth it.View Thread
The other big food sensitivity issue these days is gluten - and it's not a fad. It's a real problem. Gluten sensitivity is becoming more and more 'seen.' If you get anything like 'brain fog', extreme fatigue, blotches, or a variety of other symptoms, it might be caused by gluten. It might be worth your trying to take it out of your diet for a couple of weeks and see how you feel. And by taking it out it can't be 'I'll just cut back.' Nada. All of it has to go because even a small exposure can cause weeks of symptoms.
Also, many of those with casein problems cross-react to gluten and the other way around.........just a head's up.View Thread

Spa Sleuth: Learning to Live Better
Combining a vacation with lifestyle learning is a top trend at spas worldwide. In addition, if you are seeking new information that your doctors have not been able to provide, a health retreat might just be the ticket.
Minutes from Palm Beach resorts, vegetarianism is alive and well on the tropical campus of Hippocrates Health Institute. Going green sounds easy. But after a week, I craved seafood and steak. Perhaps the full three-week Hippocrates Health Encounter is necessary to complete the full transformation from carnivore to vegan.
Wheatgrass juice, sprouts, and salads detox more than your body. Lifestyle change motivates newcomers at the institute to adopt new diets that provide both energy and antioxidants from raw food. Some classmates that I met were facing serious disease or recuperating from chemotherapy. Finding this supportive environment and the camaraderie of a like-minded group helps overcome fear of change.
Changing attitudes about exercise and diet is basic to the curriculum developed by Hippocrates Institute directors Brian and Anna Marie Clement. Passionate about the benefits of eating raw foods, they document detrimental effects of consuming meat, fish, and dairy products. The daily buffet of uncooked, fresh greens is surprisingly filling. And a gentle colonic cleansing comes with the program, so you'll leave feeling lighter.
Balancing the daily schedule of lectures are exercise classes, nature walks, and optional spa treatments. Tai Chi, Chi Gong, NIA, and yoga are also scheduled. The facilities are modest and rarely crowded as attendance is not mandatory once you complete a health check and 'Internal Awareness' discussion. Looking at live blood cells drawn from me, Anna Maria, a naturopathic doctor, suggested supplements to boost my immune system. Her comments were verified by the staff medical director in a follow-up consultation. At the therapy center, I experienced the H-Wave machine that beams electronic impulses to aching muscles and bones, a powerful tool for pain management. A variety of massages, wraps, and facials can be booked a la carte; the best was a two-hour Thai massage by Bohi, a Brazilian-born therapist who works on the floor of a canvas yurt.
Brian Clement, the charismatic force driving the Hippocrates Institute's development for twenty years, plans to expand the forty-acre campus with a village of private residences where alumni can enjoy access to services and meals as well as the spa pools. Accommodations now range from sparsely furnished cottages with modern baths to four-bed dorm rooms for budget-minded singles.
The mix of thirty people enrolled for the three-week course ranged from youthful couples and mothers with babies to seniors and individuals in wheelchairs. Clement delivers challenging facts about America's healthcare system and how to take control of your health. Impeccably dressed in a business suit, he lectures in a palm-covered hut that is the essence of natural living. "It has become common to wait until illness strikes to think about change", he says. "Give yourself the gift of vitality by making improvements now."

Living the Spa Lifestyle
Want to live the spa lifestyle full-time? Buying a residence at a spa resort can be an investment in health as well as active retirement. Jamaica's new spa village at Goldeneye will feature the first authentic French thalassotherapy center in the Americas. Developed by Thalgo Spa Management, the Caribbean seawater spa was designed for Chris Blackwell's Island Outpost group. Goldeneye, the legendary home of James Bond, offers private beach villas and spa cottages and is scheduled to open at the end of 007. (Island Outpost)
Colorado and Mexico will harbor the next ayurvedic centers developed by Dr. Deepak Chopra. He announced plans to build a 17,000-square-foot Rocky Mountain Chopra Center & Spa near Denver, a $40 million residential and retail development. On the Pacific coast of Baja California, Chopra's spa at the posh Punta Mita resort is part of Porta Fortuna. Both are scheduled to open next year. (Chopra)
Golden Door Cottages will add luster to Florida's Boca Raton Resort & Club, which features a lavish Spa Palazzo. (Boca Resort)
Canyon Ranch Living opens on Miami Beach at the end of this year, with three towers of condominiums surrounding the Canyon Ranch SpaClub. (Canyon Ranch)
Canada's western provinces now boast medical spas staffed by lifestyle counselors from Dr. Wendy Smeltzer's Institut de Sante in Calgary, Alberta; branches open this summer at Spirit Ridge Resort in the Okanagan Valley wine country of British Columbia, and at Bear Mountain golf resort on Vancouver Island.

The Warrior Nerd battles the evil dietary establishment in a protein battle to the death.
All dietary fats supply caloric density for supporting the energy-costly process of protein synthesis. This is a boon for thin, ectomorphic guys trying to gain weight. But since we Americans consume far too many trans fats and omega-6 type fatty acids, an increased focus on monounsaturated fatty acids (e.g. olive oil) and omega-3 fatty acids like flax and fish oils are even better.
The average American consumes just 5 to 15 grams of fiber daily. This is paltry and not well understood by our ancient DNA. New 2005 DRI Guidelines suggest 38 grams of total fiber per day for men and 25g daily for women. That's more than double what most people consume. In fact, 9 out of 10 Americans fall short. There's solid and growing evidence that higher fiber intakes offer lower risk of fat gain, partly by lowering the insulin and glycemic effects of a meal. So get more fiber!
I love beef in a big bloody way, but as a society we've taken cattle off their natural diet (grass) and served them up copious quantities of corn. Grass-fed beef is far superior to corn-fed beef. The fatty acid composition is much better suited for hardcore bodybuilders and health conscious folks alike.
Although learning to be lazy can actually be a good thing for ectomorphs trying to gain weight, the opposite is true for any of us wondering why we can't lose that extra fat despite our workouts and dietary practices. Most of our kcal burning day is spent outside the gym. If you hate cardio, take a look at your non-exercise physical activity (NEPA). Stuck on a fat loss plateau? Take a look at your NEPA. Afraid to cut your calories any lower? Take a look at your NEPA.
Eating a big breakfast has been shown to result in lower daily calorie intake. This result, which could be related to less evening bingeing, might sound good to those who have a tough time staying away from after-dinner munchies. The effect is small, at just 100 kcal less per day, but it's nonetheless welcome to many dieters. Rather than a late-day satiating effect, the general increase in overall fiber intake among breakfast-eaters could be what's helpful. In any case, the 100 kcal reduction could add up over time. Don't skip a big healthy breakfast!
Can't lose fat? Can't figure out why? Well, can you answer simple "yes" or "no" questions? Of course you can! And that's all Dr. L's nifty little algorithm requires. You should have the answer to your fat-loss dilemma in no time and soon be well on your way to buffdom.
Eat 30-40 grams of fiber daily, mostly from fruits and vegetables. For reasons similar to protein, getting in 5-10 grams of fiber per meal prevents consumption of less desirable foods. This is because it's filling and offers metabolic advantages. Are you getting enough fiber?
Eat on a schedule regardless of hunger! Simply divide the number of needed daily macronutrients (protein, carbs, fat) by six meals and that's what's needed every two to three hours. Eat them or be a shrunken flabby-man. Period!
Are your bulking phases, or just the act of eating like a bodybuilder, shortening your athletic career or your life? It's possible, but Dr. L's got a plan and it involves "calorie restriction mimetics." Read, learn, live long and prosper.
Buy whole grain or flax pasta (Hodgeson Mill has one with 500 mg linolenic acid and 6 g fiber) and cook it Sunday night. Then run hot water over it at mealtime. This is an old restaurant trick and makes pretty good — and instant — pasta. Mixing pasta 50/50 with nuked frozen veggies dilutes the carbs and kcal. Add in pre-cooked or canned chicken if you're swamped for time!
"No one in this world can you trust: not men, not women, not beasts... this you can trust." — Conan's father
Should morning cardio be performed on an empty stomach or not? Well, here's what I like to do: Add a half-scoop of protein to a cup of java an hour before mild to moderate morning cardio. This will help you attack stored fat directly, before the lingering protective effects of insulin get involved. The small amount of protein (about 10 grams) may actually help combat cortisol (a potential morning problem especially when coffee is involved) and preserve muscle mass without jacking your insulin too high.
Did you know that enough sleep deprivation in rodents causes death? Or that there's a nearly linear relationship between hours of sleep and body mass index (a crude marker of obesity in non-athletes)? Or how about the fact that sleep debt contributes to carb intolerance and fat gain over time? Of course this is to say nothing of immune dysfunction, altered physical performance, and mental clarity. Lesson: Lack of sleep could be why your progress in the gym has stalled.
Two studies suggest an endocrine benefit of eating breakfast that could extend to more muscle mass and less downtime from training. The first investigation concluded that eating breakfast reduces circulating cortisol. The second suggests fewer severe upper-respiratory tract infections among breakfast eaters. And we can appreciate how annoying and distressing a head cold can be when it interferes with lifting well or even lifting. Moral: Don't skip breakfast!
If you haven't heard of the wonders of broccoli, you may want to relocate out from under your rock. With bountiful phytochemicals, including cancer-fighting indoles (also found in cabbage and cauliflower), this is great stuff. Remember that cruciferous veggies provide indole-3-carbinol which has been shown to be anti-estrogenic. And let us not forget the soluble fiber and very few kcal that make broccoli a filling, satisfying boon for dieters.

Eating well doesn't have to mean eating expensively. Yes, low-fat and low-carb specialty goodies are pricey, but these shouldn't be staples anyway! Canned salmon and tuna are cheap protein. Skim milk or even powdered milk is great on multiple levels such as high quality protein, potassium, vitamin D and calcium for fat loss, etc. Frozen fruits and vegetables are very comparable to fresh in quality and can be bought cheaply in one-pound bags. Dried beans are dirt-cheap. Lower-cost 18 packs of eggs are also a great, high-protein post-workout meal with toast (say, one or two whole eggs and six to eight egg whites with four pieces of toast and jam).

The Glove Theatre opened in 1914 and was originally owned by Dr. Henry Cady and George Dartch. The Glove was created to accommodate a variety of live performances such as opera, vaudeville shows, and orchestral concerts.
The theatre was purchased by brothers J. Myer and Louis Schine and was converted into a vaudeville house in 1920. The Schine Brothers went on to parlay their two theaters in Gloversville into a five state chain of theaters. During the 50-year run of the Schine Theater chain, they owned, operated or leased almost 280 theaters in New York, Ohio, Kentucky, Delaware, and Maryland. The entire empire was headquartered in the sleepy little manufacturing town of Gloversville and the Schine Building, which is part of the Glove Theater building.
The Glove Theatre has undergone many changes since 1914, such as the full marquee, which was erected in 1939 to replace a small oval sign. The theatre saw its peak as one of the premier entertainment venues in Fulton and Montgomery counties during the forties and fifties. Starting in 1960, movie ticket sales declined and the Glove was sold.
Movies were shown until the seventies and then the doors were closed. The theater, which once served as the flagship of the Schine Empire, sat empty and moldering for almost 25 years. Water poured into the auditorium, grease from a fryer trap in an adjacent storefront pooled in a corner of the basement, pigeons made their nests in any available rafter.
In 1995, a group of dedicated individuals set out to save the Glove. The group was undaunted by the pervasive stench of mildew nor by the lush crop of mushrooms sprouting from the aisle carpets.
News of the Glove's rebirth generated a burst of community enthusiasm. Money was raised to stabilize the structure and throughout the last decade, volunteers have continued to work diligently to restore the Glove to its former prominence. In 2003, the Glove Theatre Museum opened featuring memorabilia from the theatre and Schine families.
Strong grass roots community effort, home of the Schine Theater chain, THS visit will generate much needed attention.

WINNIPEG – The Minnesota Wild and Winnipeg Jets have sown the first seeds of a rivalry that will take full root next season with NHL realignment.
The two clubs are each other's nearest geographic rivals, with plenty of open highway connecting the two fan bases that roughly split somewhere among the open plains of North Dakota. Both teams will be part of a new eight-team conference next season, so they wasted little time on Tuesday night acquainting themselves with each other inside the cozy MTS Centre, a building tailor-made for heating up on-ice tensions.
"I think as you could see the two teams don't like each other out there," Minnesota coach Mike Yeo said, "and I'm sure that the next one will be very interesting [on Feb. 16 at the Xcel Energy Center] as well."
Both clubs staged a very physical contest that also featured multiple after-whistle scrums and a spirited second-period fight between Minnesota defenseman Clayton Stoner and Winnipeg's Tanner Glass.
"They seem to want to get involved in a lot of scrums and stuff like that after the whistle," Yeo said. "Obviously the next time we play them it's going to be a pretty exciting game as well."
Jets coach Claude Noel concurred.
"Both teams clearly wanted to win the game," Noel said. "That was very clear. That leads to the dislike."
The 15,004-seat MTS Centre could also play a key role in the rivalry between the two clubs divided by 466 miles of open highway. Opponents must quickly familiarize themselves with the building's tight confines and its vocal fans.
"The emotional level in this building is pretty intense," Noel explained, "and I think teams are ready when they come in here."
With the Wild leading the NHL with 43 points, and the Jets working on establishing a home-ice presence, Tuesday night was the first step toward setting the tone for next season's meetings. The MTS Centre's growing reputation around the League means that opponents are ready when they arrive in Winnipeg, and the Wild were no exception.
"People hear what's happening, and they get ready for that," Noel said. "I think that's good for us. I think we're the recipients of that. It makes us way better. It's like when you're best the team in the League, it's really a good challenge, because everybody gets jacked up for you. It makes you better. It makes you mentally stronger."

Houston County Courier - Local News
Stories Added - July 2008
Copyright 2008 - Polk County Publishing Company
The Texas Department of State Health Services issued a statement on Wednesday, July 9 reporting the first case of West Nile Neuro-invasive Disease (WNND).
The case had onset in the first week of June, and occurred in a 60+ year-old man from Denton County.
According to DSHS this is the fourth case of West Nile (WN) illness reported for 2008.
The three other cases were WN fever illnesses from Denton, Montgomery, and Randall counties.
WN virus positive mosquito pools have been identified in Brazoria, Brazos, Dallas, and Harris counties.
At this time in 2007, DSHS had reported one case of WNND and no cases of WN fever.
To monitor current WNV activity in a given area, visit the DSHS Zoonosis Control West Nile webpage.
It contains detailed statistics, tables, and maps illustrating up-to-date West Nile virus activity in Texas. http://www.dshs.state.tx.us/idcu/disease/arboviral/westNile/
Preventing mosquito bites reduces the risk of developing WN illness and other viral diseases that mosquitoes can transmit.
DSHS offers these friendly reminders: Use insect repellents that contain DEET, picaridin or oil of lemon eucalyptus; Place insect repellents by the front and back doors of your home, so they are easily accessible when you go outside. Keep extra repellent in outdoor areas such as patios and decks; Limit the amount of time you spend outdoors between dusk and dawn. This is when mosquitoes most likely to carry WNV are predominantly biting; Mosquito-proof your house. Make sure door seals are secure and window screens are intact; Drain standing water around your home. Empty cans, buckets, tires, rain gutters, and saucers under potted plants regularly. Change the water in pet bowls, birdbaths, and wading pools several times a week and Vaccinate horses annually against WNV.

Free extract from The Omni-Science
Principle by The Money King:
Read More Here
there are lots of chances of earning additional income
or profits online. Since its commencement, the Internet
has become the breeding ground of small businesses. The
internet is evolving and changing all the time, and the
free resources and samples which are available on the web
are similarly changing constantly.
As a matter of fact, the only constant
in life is change, and the internet is merely a manifestation
of real life. The people who are engaged in online business
are always attempting to make fast money online through
free resources legally.
In the past, it has been found that regular
internet users expected everything for free and were unwilling
to pay for anything, knowing they could in due course find
a site offering a one time free offer or perhaps a one-time
sample if they surfed and searched the web long.
They even expected that in the long run
they could often find a site that allowed them to download
pay software for free, at least for a time. But ultimately
these people who wanted to make fast money online through
free resources legally became disheartened as one by
one these freebies fell apart as it was realized that the
vast majority of the people filling out these forms just
wanted the recognizable free lunch.
However, a few profitable ones still
remain, such as the famous jelly bean free samples. It
is relatively easy to find websites that will send you
free samples of candy, pet food, beauty products and various
household free samples such as toothpaste and shampoo.
In addition, free hosting sites still exist, and one can
find sites which offer webmaster freebies like screensavers,
fonts, clipart & various graphics, multimedia freebies,
travel coupons, software downloads and the like.
Although fewer overall freestuff is available,
in a strange way it is easier to find the freebies that
exist than ever before. A lot of this is due to the improved
relevancy of the big search engines. In an online business,
if one offers a product, service or some information for
free, it can have great returns. The person who is offering
free products whether it is a subscription to an ezine,
an e-book, report or software it must be of good quality
.And if the visitors are impressed by their product then
they are going to visit his site again and again.
Moreover it enhances ones search
engine rankings. As the word is typed into a search more
than any other, having it optimized on ones website
will have astounding surpluses. This is how one can make
fast money online through free products legally.
The word that is used in searches on
the internet more than any other is FREE. Everyone loves
something for nothing. No one wants to pay for something
if they can get it for free. It is possible to make
fast money online by offering free samples and gifts legally.

State Rep. Matt Heinz runs for Giffords' vacated seat
Reporter: Claire Doan
TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) – Another candidate eyes the congressional seat vacated by Gabrielle Giffords: Arizona Rep. Matt Heinz is the first Democrat to officially announce his candidacy for Arizona's Congressional District 8.
Heinz, who has been a state legislator for four years, says no one can replace Giffords, but he would be the best person to honor her legacy because he's a moderate who has a track record of consensus building across party lines.
Heinz says his background as a physician is a unique asset.
"We find the problem and we fix it and that's what medicine is all about. And that background is what I bring with me to the legislature now and has afforded me to cut through a lot of the partisan bickering to get things done," Heinz told KGUN9 news.
With the need to fundraise in record time and his current responsibilities as a legislator, Heinz says he will strike a balance by cutting back on his shifts at the Tucson Medical Center.
The State Representative said his priority in Washington will be the economy, education and health care.
9 On Your Side asked Heinz how he will approach his seat in Washington, given that many people are tired of the gridlock and lack of productivity of current members of Congress.
"So am I. I think we are all frustrated by that kind of gridlock and inaction," Heinz said. "Don't ignore the problem. Embrace it and solve it. I can show my record of working together with my Republican colleagues and my Democratic colleagues – getting things done for the district."
Heinz said he will modify his plans and only run for the November General Election if Rob Barber, Giffords' District Director, decides to run for her seat for the rest of the term.
Giffords has not formally endorsed any candidate yet.
Heinz confirmed that he will run in the special election for what is now CD8, as well as CD2 in the General Election under the new redistricting map.
Republican State Senator Frank Antenori announced his candidacy for CD8 and CD2 last week. Republican Jesse Kelly, who lost to Giffords two years ago, has filed paperwork with the Federal Elections Commission.

Oprah Winfrey suffered a huge heartbreak when one of her beloved pooches died in a freak accident. Gracie, a golden retriever who was the littlest of Oprah's three pups, was killed when Oprah's dog walker took the three dogs out for an evening stroll.
Oprah got a call twenty minutes later saying Gracie was not breathing. "I ran barefoot out of the house and found the dog walker and one of my security guys pumping her chest," Oprah says in the August issue of O, The Oprah Magazine. "Just as I reached them, the security guard looked up... 'She's gone."
Gracie had choked on a plastic ball that belonged to Oprah's much older cocker spaniel, Sophie. Oprah immediately felt the loss of her favorite pup. She was flooded with "tears and stabbing pain and disbelief and wonder and questions about how and why this happened."

Tuesday, April 26, 2011 — Gov. John Hickenlooper today applauded the Colorado Senate for confirming Lt. Gov. Joseph A. Garcia as the Executive Director of the Department of Higher Education.
The Senate confirmed Garcia unanimously.
Garcia takes on the responsibility of leading the Department of Higher Education in addition to his role as second in command to the Governor. The state will realize cost savings and greater efficiencies by allowing Garcia to serve in both positions. Most importantly, the dual role will allow for consistent leadership for the Governor's education initiatives and efforts to form a seamless public education system for Colorado children of all ages.
Garcia brings executive-level understanding to his new position from extensive experience in higher education. Garcia was president of Colorado State University-Pueblo and president of the second-largest community college in Colorado, Pike's Peak Community College. Known for his commitment to improving access to higher education for underrepresented and disadvantaged youth, Garcia increased enrollment at both schools through his visionary leadership.
Prior to his work in education, Garcia was the Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies and was responsible for managing and maintaining budgetary responsibility for Colorado divisions such as Banking, Financial Services, Real Estate, Insurance, Civil Rights, Securities and the Public Utilities Commission. Garcia was appointed by then-Gov. Roy Romer.
Garcia earned a business degree from the University of Colorado and a juris doctorate from Harvard Law School.

By Jaret Poland, Knicks Fan Since '93
The Knicks had a quick one-game road trip to Cleveland to take on Kyrie Irving and the Cavaliers. The Knicks didn't haven an answer for Kyrie's 37-points and fell 109-94 to the Cavs. As they return home, they'll look to get back on track against the Chicago Bulls tonight.
Here are my Five Takeaways from this tough loss.

HR News – May 2011
Staff Service Recognition Luncheon
Tomorrow, May 19th, the University will recognize 58 staff members for 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 40 years of service! Together, these individuals have given Drew 675 years of service!
The HR Committee of US/A, which is hosting the event, has arranged for the awards component of the event to be streamed online. Anyone interested in watching can go to www.drew.edu/live and see the live presentation of the awards and speeches by the supervisors of those celebrating 20 or more years of service. Due to scheduling conflicts, the presentations will occur in two segments. Our 40 year recipient will be recognized at approximately 12:15 and the remaining presentations and speeches will resume at approximately 1:00 p.m. Hope you can watch the festivities online!
Chronicle Great Colleges Comments and Results
The university has purchased the complete data set from last year's Chronicle of Higher Education Great Colleges to Work For survey. This information, which includes the results for each question in the survey and all of the individual comments, has been shared with the president and his cabinet. Any member of the community wishing to review these documents is welcome to do so. Copies may be found in my office in Madison House and Dave Muha's office in Mead Hall. Please contact either of us to arrange a convenient time.
Retiree Health
Last October we announced that retiree health benefits for faculty and staff (not including those in the voluntary retirement program) were being suspended pending further review. HR, working with a consultant, a small group of Cabinet members and the Compensation Monitoring Committee, examined a number of options for managing the skyrocketing costs associated with our plans. After considerable review, the recommendation made to the Board at its meeting earlier this month was that we implement an interim post-retirement health plan until 2014 when government changes to health care will be implemented.
The proposed changes were guided by several principles; the current plan is financially untenable and changes are required; we wanted to encourage dependents to use alternatives to the Drew health plan when possible; and we wanted to maintain benefits for the Drew retiree, where possible, even if it came at the expense of the dependents. The changes below were approved by the Board of Trustees and are effective retroactive to January 1, 2011,
|Current Plan
|Interim Plan
|Age and years of service qualifications needed for eligibility
|55 years old and 10 years of service (with graduated benefits for employees with fewer years of service.)
|60 years old and 15 years of service (with no graduated benefits for fewer years of service.)
|Cost sharing split for Drew/dependent or spouse
|Cap on the portion of the premium that Drew will pay
|$533 per employee per month
|$533 per employee per month
|Cost sharing split for Drew/retiree
|Dependent and surviving spouse coverage available

Thrifty beauty!
Where some stars only shop at designer boutiques, Jamie Chung isn't shy about her love of a good bargain.

"My little secret is that I love to shop at T.J. Maxx. I can find designer pieces and the hottest trends without breaking the bank," Chung, 31, tells Us Weekly. Case in point: The Believe actress, who has partnered with the chain, wore a canary yellow cocktail dress to the Godzilla premiere in Los Angeles that she found at T.J. Maxx.

Chat with Nina Dobrev
Erica JacksonErica Jackson is a Toronto native, has lived in Paris, and now Atlanta. A fan of the CW, Erica will combine her love of CW shows, her experience in fashion, design and writing to comment on all things fashion-related; from CW stars and shows to red carpet events, to fashion news and the latest trends, to all pieces of style inspiration that cross her path. Feel free to email Erica with your fashion discoveries and/or questions at email@example.com and follow her on Twitter & Instagram @ericajjackson26.
Miss Nina Dobrev was out and about in Atlanta this past Saturday, September 15th. She was at an autograph signing at Barnes and Noble, signing copies of her October cover of Seventeen Magazine … and later, was at a movie screening to promote her new movie, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower", which will hit theaters on the 21st.
Before the screening, Nina was available to the press for some short interviews, and I witnessed it all first-hand! I got to ask Nina some questions about her new movie, as well as a little bit about what she's most excited about for this upcoming season of TVD.
Nina stood in front of the Perks' movie posters and posed for pictures. It was their version of a "red carpet". Each reporter was allowed their turn to ask questions; although I've done some interviews before, I would be lying to you if I didn't tell you that I was nervous out of my mind. But when Nina Dobrev is looking right at you, smiling and waiting for you to speak, thank God for that little voice in your head that says, "Get it together, girl … go!"
Nina is just as beautiful in person as she is on screen. And she's really very sweet, too!
She's actually pretty tall, and even my extra inches of heel couldn't compete with her. She wore a fun, dark-floral, pantsuit-romper. Side note: I want one. It was sleeveless and open-back — dark floral and pant = perfect for fall, while still cool enough for our ever-lingering Atlanta heat. She wore her hair in long loose curls, pulled back off her face with tiny braids.
She answered all questions with a lot of poise, and her answers were meaningful. It was obvious that her fans mean a great deal to her, and she was very gracious in taking a time-out from TVD shooting to be there and talk to us all.
She even tweeted after the event saying, "I had so much fun meeting/and hanging out with you guys on Saturday at the signing ! Thanks for spending part of your weekend with me ;)".
When the press interviews were over, we then went into the theater. We got more footage of the fans, anticipating the movie as well as for Nina to arrive one more time. Nina entered the theater to all of her fans chanting her name, and addressed everyone at the front; smiling and telling everybody "long time, no see!" and that she hoped they enjoy the movie.
CW69 camera-man Chris got everything on camera, and I'm happy to tell you that we will be putting together the interview and posting it for you soon!
Be sure to check out Nina in "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," in theaters September 21st — and of course, as TVD's new baby vamp, premiering this October!

Kristin Chenoweth will return as co-host of the American Country Awards alongside Trace Adkins on Monday, December 10. Airing live on FOX at 8p|7c, Kristin is looking forward to the chance to step back into the co-hosting role. So much so that she was steadfast in making sure she got the call to return.
Check out 100s of photos from past ACA shows »
"We're really excited," she told News Day. "We really get along, and he's just a cool person," she says of Trace. "For some reason, we have this crazy chemistry that people enjoy. I enjoy it myself, and I was bound and determined to not lose that date. That was my goal, to be there for that."
It will be Kristin's first major job since being injured on the set of ABC's The Good Wife. During filming over the summer, she was struck by a falling light fixture and suffered serious injury to her face, skull, neck, spine and ribs. Doctors didn't expect her to return to work so soon.
"I just can't have idle hands," Kristin said. "I was down for two months easily, then into the third month, I slowly started coming back out a little bit. It was a life-changing event for me, and I don't want to milk it dry, but it's something that will take me a while to recover from. I still have injuries that I'm dealing with, but overall, I'm so lucky to be back. I'm getting there."
Kristin, who released her first country album, Some Lessons Learned, will perform a song from the project during the show. Rascal Flatts, Kip Moore, Jake Owen, Jason Aldean, Lady Antebellum, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan and Little Big Town are also scheduled to perform.
The ACAs will also feature appearances by Miranda Lambert, Natasha Bedingfield, Ron White, cowboy Trevor Brazile, Scotty McCreery, Lauren Alaina, Casey James, LeAnn Rimes, Lee Brice, Jana Kramer, Dustin Lynch and Chris Young.
