That the last world record on this track went to a Paralympic athlete seemed a fitting finale to the closing act of the first part of the Olympic Stadium's life. It has played host to the transformation of a movement and on Sunday it hosted a full-house of 65,000 to celebrate what Paralympic sport has become to this country in the space of a year. Outside the Paralympic Games it is the largest ever audience for such an event.
More than 40 per cent of the reports carried out on disability benefit claimants by the back-to-work assessor Atos are flawed and unacceptable, according to an audit commissioned by the Government.
Tom Peck on the other flame that needs to be kept alight
The Paralympics were a breakthrough moment. They were a great opportunity to think about disability in a different way and for disabled people to be much more visible.

After a horrific accident Mike wakes to find himself blind in one eye. He now sees things that others can't, and nobody will listen to him. That is, until he meets Jandilyn Hollow. Will she be able to pull him out of the depths of his despair? Can love transcend even death?
©2012 Mark Tufo (P)2012 Tantor
This was my first introduction to Mike Talbot outside of the Zombie Fallout series.
Of course. I'm hooked.
Sean is amazing. I can't imagine another narrator for the Talbot and company.
I wanted to cry but unfortunately I never really connected with anyone except for Mike. Sure, it was sad, and other people reviewed that tears were spilled...but It was too easy to discover the twist and the magic was lost.
I love Mark Tufo.......I love Sean Runette......I love Michael Talbot.......I love this unique twist to the tale of the Talbots.....I can't get enough.....I listen to the different story/series multiply times.....I am SOOOOOOOOO hooked!!!!!!
"Sad, Creepy, with Ending like No Other!!!!"
It gave a deeper, emotional look into the Mike Talbot that we ALL thought we knew before...But apparently, Mark Tufo knew he needed to take this character to a deeper, darker depth of sadness, loneliness, and despair (With a Big helping of Sarcasm) just when things were looking positive, just for our enjoyment. As a "spiritual sensitive", this one hit home for me more than any of his other stories, because often when encountering spirits trapped in between "our world: and the "after-life", I can feel their despair, confusion, and unfortunately, extreme loneliness, and it is painful and draining on my own soul. I loved the, "Tufo" style of overlapping characters from other stories in his series, even if they were brief. I always get a feeling of familiarity and clarity when he does that.
I don't think I have ever read a story quite like this one, it was a new experience for me, and a welcomed relief after listening to the twisted tale of Timothy and the bewildering saga of Callis Rose (Must reads ALSO!!!)
Can't spoil the story for future readers...It's All good, every bit of happiness, sadness, fear, and especially the "ever explaining" conclusion....
Besides Mike?? He would be my FIRST choice, but other character would be Jandolin, she seems like the kind of women I respect and would get along best with. Now her Mother, I would take her to the back of the barn and bash her skull in with shovel...But it ALL makes sense in the end!!
If you have ever wondered what possibly happens during the "in-between spaces" of life and death, this is a MUST READ!!!!
"Another hit for Mr. Tufo"
I started this thinking one thing and then found my self wondering if x was gonna happen, then thinking oh i no where this is going, and finally saying (out loud) get the heck out of here. I throughly enjoyed it and gave it more of a chance because of the author, but all in all a good listen.
".... Wow ..."
Did not read it
The end ... the ending ... I just finished the book and I had to log in to convey my feelings ...
I can honestly say I am speechless ... I feel like I just got off a 2 day marathon of riding an endless emotional roller coaster. The familiar voice of Mike Talbot's witty sarcastic humor punching through an endless sea of horror and misery. I feel like it was two books in one the first half is a Romeo and Juliet tale that somehow gracefully spins into a horror flick that had me so captivated I listened to it non-stop and had it done in less that 48 hrs.
This brings Mark Tufo to a new level... not only can he write some of the best Sci-Fi Thrillers that keeps me coming back ... but now he is in my ranks of upper echelon of horror thrillers!
Just love Zombie books. Favorites so far by Mark Tufo.
"Another Must get by Mark Tufo"
Yes. It was a very touching story. Love reconecting with Mike Talbot again in a different book. I miss Mike Talbot, because I have listen to all Mark Tufo's books with him in it.
Mike Talbot--seeing him in a different way, but he is always the same type of character. Strong, smart, caring, loving, and crazy at times.
I love listening to Sean Runnette. I have been trying to find other titles he performs in.
Just another oustanding book from Mark Tufo.
Dont know but do love seans narration :)
Cant blow the story by saying anything...but you will know when you get to it....
the end scene left my head spinning
Its like an episode of the twilight zone
Great book, happy parts sad parts :) and all the in betweens
"Best author around"
Yes. The story just grips you and you can't look away.
The way the author know how to do the characters in his story. He makes you feel like you know them and makes you feel the story.
Sean Runnette is great I've listened to many Mark Tufo books and really enjoy how he makes the books come to life.
I wouldn't. It suits it it just fine to me.
A big thanks to Mark Tufo. Served his country and now makes incredible stories that you can't help but enjoy. And too Sean Runnette for bringing his words to life for me.
"A spin on the Mike Tailbot saga"
I would absolutely listen to Spirit Clearing again. It was an awesome spin on the Mike Tailbot story.
When it seems like mike has lost everything and you wonder what hes going to do.
Sean Runnette does another amazing job on this book.He's enjoyable as always. Great job sean
The end is nigh
"Great Story"
It was fun to listen to another Mike Talbot adventure, very different from Indian Hill and Zombie Fallout. While I loved those two series, I think this is my favorite so far, I could not wait to get back to listening to it. This is much darker then the other stories and while I did like Mike's sarcasm, it was different then the other books. Mark has done a great job, keep up the good work.

Bio and Links
I was born and raised in the great state of TEXAS! and I am so happy to be home. I am currently living in San Antonio. I have been doing family research for my family as well as my husbands for about 7 years. Nothing thrills me more that when I have found some snippet of info I have been looking for forever, than when I can help someone else find one they have been looking for. I love to have people email me and find out we are related in some way. This is the best site for family researchers and for getting snippets of long lost info! I am a housewife and have lots of time to devote, and I am ecstatic to help anybody I can find what they need.
I would like to respond to a message left for me by DON user # 47041347 who chose to blast me on a public forum and leave absolutely no way to contact him for a response. After accusing me of having "been rude" by fulfilling a photo request he had claimed, I would like to respond publicly by saying that I would never steal a request someone else had claimed. I filled this request by accident because I am cataloging and transcribing and taking photos of the entire cemetery (1,000+ graves) and just put this photo in because it was in the cemetery not knowing that it was a request. I would also like to state how RUDE and IMMATURE it is of you to blast me without giving me any chance to contact you to respond and tell my side. Nice dude. This whole interaction has saddened me, it has taken me 9 months on findagrave before finally having found a jerk. I love this site because I thought we were all on it to try and help each other, not to be territorial and mean spirited over a simple misunderstanding. Not cool.

That's easy
"The CEO of any organisation that is found to be responsible, or partially responsible, for any environmental incident (e.g. oil spill) will be held personally and infinitely liable. Should the CEO be bankrupted, such financial responsibility will be spread amongst other members of the board (COO etc)."
Or something similar. The only way to get people to take responsibility is to MAKE them responsible. This is true for banks and any other industry. At the moment those with the power (CEOs etc) bear no liability or responsibility and when things do go tits up, they can expect to leave with a massive golden-goodbye.
If you are I messed up in a similar manner, we'd be facing summary dismissal.

Gloria Garfinkel's art can be seen as a celebration of life where vibrant colors, dynamic shapes, viewer participation and the pure joy of creativity rules the day. Then there are other works that bring forth the frailty of nature's balance in all its majestic splendor.

The Tories relish challenging what they see as vested interests in the public sector – whether it's bashing trade unions, briefing against civil servants or picking fights with public servants. So why are they silent when it comes to vested interests and crony corporatism in the private sector? After Sir John Major's intervention, suggesting that energy companies' price rises are unjustified and calling for the Government to impose a windfall tax on excess profits, David Cameron's failure to act is all the more conspicuous.
Mrs Thatcher would never have stood for it. There aren't that many policies of hers that I support. But when it came to privatising the electricity and gas industries, she at least understood that a free market only works when there are proper rules to ensure fair play and competition. Otherwise, a benign state monopoly is simply replaced with a rapacious private one.
Today's energy market, in which a handful of dominant companies set prices and trade much of their energy behind closed doors, is a far cry from a genuinely competitive market.
That's why Ed Miliband and I announced radical reforms to deliver a fairer energy market that works for ordinary people, rebuilds trust and delivers investment for the future. We will not stand by while energy companies abuse their market power to impose inflation-busting price rises on hard-pressed consumers while they sit on record profits. Our plan to fix the market entails three big changes.
First, at the moment, very little electricity is bought and sold on the open market. Some estimates put the figure as low as 6 per cent. Consumers have no way of knowing if their bills are fair, and other companies can't break into the market. This reduces competition, leaves the market vulnerable to manipulation, and undermines consumer trust. So we will make energy companies buy and sell their power through an open pool or exchange.
Second, when the energy market was first privatised, there was a clear separation put between companies that generate power and those that sell it to the public – on the assumption that you could only achieve a genuinely competitive market if you had supply companies competing with one another to drive down generation costs. Ironically, when John Major was prime minister, that restriction was lifted and vertical integration was given the green light. The result is a market dominated by a handful of big companies that generate much of the power we use and supply over 98 per cent of homes. Ultimately, when the same company can buy energy from itself to sell on to consumers there is little incentive to keep prices down. So we will make these companies ring-fence their power stations from the businesses that supply our homes and businesses to stop them gaming the market.
Third, at the moment weak competition and poor regulation means that companies know that there are no consequences to increasing prices above levels which would be considered reasonable in a truly competitive market. This means that consumers are left without the protection of either a properly functioning market or an effective regulator. So we will create a tough new energy watchdog with new powers to police the market, including the power to force energy companies to cut their prices when wholesale costs fall – which, in a properly, competitive market should happen anyway.
Our market reforms will reintroduce proper competition and create a system with fairness to consumers at its heart. But these measures will take time to create a market people can trust. So we will take immediate action upon entering office to put a stop to this unfairness and help people facing the cost of living crisis by freezing prices until January 2017 when our reforms will start kicking in. This will save money for 27 million households and 2.4 million businesses.
David Cameron's failure to get tough with the energy companies is not just leaving hard-pressed consumers massively out of pocket, but is now even exasperating Tory party loyalists like John Major. The Conservatives used to claim to be the party of the free market and vigorous competition. Today, however, as John Major's intervention so clearly shows, they only speak for corporate monopolies and vested interests. Labour will speak for Britain – and our plans will break the stranglehold of the energy companies and deliver a fairer energy market that works for ordinary people.

In this issue: Captain Morgan Maker Served Stiff Penalty By SEC For FCPA Violations; and Supreme Court Rules Qui Tam Plaintiff May Not Base False Claims Act Suit on Contests of FOIA.
Exceprt from "Captain Morgan Maker...":
In a July 27, 2011 release, the SEC announced a settlement that required the world's largest spirits company, Diageo PLC ("Diageo"), to pay disgorgement of $11,306,081 plus interest and a $3 million civil penalty for violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA").
Diageo, headquartered in London, is a leading producer and distributor of premium branded alcoholic beverages, including Johnnie Walker, Smirnoff, Captain Morgan, and Guinness. Through various direct and indirect subsidiaries, Diageo maintains operations in more than 180 countries.
Diageo self-disclosed the FCPA violations following an internal investigation in order to take advantage of the leniency provisions in the FCPA. As a result, the settlement took the form of a cease-and-desist order rather than a more restrictive injunctive action, the Department of Justice did not institute additional proceedings against Diageo, and the $3 million dollar civil penalty is smaller than many much-larger penalties that have been imposed in these cases.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

Analysis Topic: Commodity Markets - Metals, Softs & OilsThe analysis published under this topic are as follows.

Silver and the Deflation Thesis / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
56,859 contracts represents over 284 million ounces of silver in a market with a total of just under 1 billion ounces in open contracts (open interest of 197,092) and a combined warehouse "physical" inventory of just over 180 million ounces.
I decided to make public and expand upon one section in my private newsletter weekly commentary.
As silver was monkey-hammered once again this week, I got the usual "see that, Harry Dent was right. Silver is going down" response.Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Price Crash - Trend Forecast 2015, Gold Stocks Buying Opportunity? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
The gold price bear market has continued in 2015 since its mid January 2015 peak of $1307 that had fooled many gold bugs into assuming that the preceding multi-year bear market was finally over and that 2015 would see a strong price rally to possibly even new all time highs! However, so far 2015 has seen a series of failed rally's rolling over into downtrends to new lows, punctuated by flash crash days such as that which took place on the 19th of July that saw a series of flash crashes that lasted no more than a couple of seconds that took the gold price to well under $1,100, to a new five year low of $1080 before recovering to currently stand just over $1,100.Read full article...

Winning the Hunger Games - How to Choose Successful Agriculture Investments / Commodities / Agricultural Commodities
Starting with the premise that people have to eat, The Agletter Editor Tom Wallace has found productive fields in the many subsectors of the ag investment space. Without discounting the risks, he explains to The Energy Report how investors can recognize and hedge those risks. Wallace also names three favorite companies that span the spectrum, from planting the seed to foodstuff.
The Energy Report: Is investing in agriculture like investing in any other commodity, or do investors new to the space need to get familiar with special considerations?Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Hammered "Unprecedented Attack" / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
- Gold market comes under "unprecedented attack" – Telegraph
– "Sharp drop bore similarities to bear raids by Chinese funds" – FT
- Paper contracts for 57 tonnes of gold dumped onto market in two minutes
- Gold still holding up in euros, Canadian dollar and other currencies
- Very negative sentiment towards gold signals close to bottom
- Physical gold still vital financial insurance despite simplistic anti gold narrative

Gold and Silver: The Final Capitulation Commences / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015The first 10 years of the bull market in gold was in hindsight plain sailing allowing us to generate profits by sticking with the trend. Alas all bull markets come to an end and so it did in 2011 when gold peaked at $1900/oz. Silver, despite having numerous industrial uses also felt the draft and fell dramatically along with the mining sector which lost approximately 70% of its value during a 3 year period of pure carnage.
This pattern of falling stock prices interrupted by sudden price hikes has characterized the precious metals sector for the last three years or so. Unfortunately the bounces were rarely of the same magnitude of the preceding falls in prices and so we have witnessed the Gold Bugs Index, the HUI, fall from a high of 630 to a close today of 113, recording a drop of some 80% in the value of these stocks.

Is Gold a Stupid "Pet Rock" or a Bedrock Asset? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Greece defaulted at the end of June, and metals investors expected higher prices in July. What we expected isn't what we got. It isn't the first or last time markets surprised investors.

Are Gold Investors Finally Capitulating? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Sprott Asset Management's Rick Rule is one of the smartest guys in the resource investing world — and one of the most reasonable — which has made his interviews of the past few years a little disconcerting. Along with the obligatory positive thoughts on the long-term value of gold and silver and the resulting bright future for the best precious metals miners, he always points out that the sector hasn't yet endured a capitulation, where everyone just gives up and sells at any price, tanking prices and setting the stage for the next bull market.Read full article...

Gold Price Just a Little Bit More / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Back in May, I sent followers of this public blog a Gold Cycle Update, outlining how gold had a 75% chance of failing to rally, resulting in an unexpected downturn. And then 3 weeks later, I sent a follow up article (Approach An Endpoint), where I outlined how gold was heading for a major Investor Cycle failure below $1,136. As was predicted, the Gold sector was hammered this past week, with new lows being achieved in every nook and cranny of the precious metals complex. Silver and platinum crossed that threshold weeks ago, but for the Miners and for Gold itself, Friday's high volume decline pushed them to new, multi-year lows. The Miners are especially concerning. Gold's decline has been tame by normal standards, but the Miners are back at the depths of the 2008 plunge, having completely erased the gains of the last Cyclical bull market.Read full article...

Gold Investors Opportunity to Potentially Double Their Money / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Rarely does childish selling of the Street and massive forced selling in China give Gold investors an opportunity to potentially double their money. That is what it may be happening at this very time in Gold and Silver markets. Now may be time to sell all exposure to the Lofty Lunacy, those internet / technology / growth / biotechnology fantasy stocks, your first born male child, your home, your dog, and whatever to add Gold and Silver to your portfolio. Last time the Street was as bearish on $Gold was 2007 when the price closed out the year at $830. $Gold went on to more than double.Read full article... Read full article...

Are the Production or Consumption Drivers of the Gold Price? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015There are many opinions about what factors drive the price of gold. Among the candidates you will find: inflation rates, U.S. dollar exchange rate, real interest rate, geopolitics, oil prices, market volatility and crises, mine production, jewelry demand, speculation, technological demand, central banks' actions, manipulation, and investment demand. We will deal with them in this and the following editions of the gold Market Overview. We will begin by rejecting production and consumption. It does mean that they do not affect the gold price; however we are interested in factors which drive the gold price.

Step back for a moment and absorb what just transpired in the ongoing Greek tragedy that refuses to go away. Greece, with no possibility of ever repaying its fictitious debts to the EU, and the EU, in all of its greed and avarice, for no wisdom is to be found within that body of elite-pushing bureaucrats, it determined that the best and ONLY solution for debt-laden Greece was to LOAN MORE "MONEY."

This is the place to come for all major KanJam tournaments, leagues, and events.
Back in 1990, a garbage can disc tournament was started. Years later, the popular "Instant Win" slot was incorporated and the garbage cans were replaced with plastic goals in order to create KanJam! The original tournament, which is now known as the KanJam World Championship, has been the foundation for many KanJam tournaments and leagues.
Approximately 100+ teams compete in the KanJam World Championship each year for the coveted title of KanJam World Champions.
There are two major KanJam tournaments - the KanJam World Championship (outdoor) and KanJam Klassic (indoor). For each tournament, the winner is awarded with the "Hammer" trophy and is recognized with a major KanJam title.
On August 8th, a total of exactly 96 teams fought for their shot at becoming official KanJam World Champions. Players came from 16 different states, three Canadian provinces, and even Europe, as the KanJam European Champions traveled from Czech Republic to compete. Without a doubt, the sport has grown tremendously, and the level of...Read more
The 2015 KanJam Klassic took place on Saturday, April 25th. For the first time in over 10 years, the tournament returned to where it all started, Sportsplex in North Tonawanda, NY.

We let her pick a couple treats for the car and had 3 birthday balloons waiting in her carseat for her. We all sang her happy birthday before we left and she was as proud as a peacock.

Day 27 - Laura Ingalls Homesite
Today we woke up to rain and in the beginning not much wind, but that didn't hold. The wind came back fast and furious. Since it was raining we decided to head into the little town and explore and do a little food shopping as well.
While we were there we went to the Ingalls family plot at the local cemetery. Then back to the homestead to see all that there is here. They have interpreters at each place so you get the history. We went to the dugout; the ...

A pretty quick turnaround for this western, helped by a comparatively short running time of 72 minutes.
This has been sat around for a couple of months and I was getting a bit bored of looking at it, so it's finally getting a watch. At the going rate it'll be Christmas before I get around to watching the next film off the list.
A fairly quick turnaround with this one.
Another month between films, at this rate I'll never finish the list.
This was my fourth trip to the Colston Hall to see Elvis Costello, and the first solo performance.
Support came from Larkin Poe who weren't bad, but not necessarily someone I'd seek out again.
Elvis appeared on stage just after 8:30 and played for over two hours. The songs were intermingled with stories about his life and family. Most of the songs were performed on guitar, a few on piano, and some with support from Rebecca and Megan from Larkin Poe. To be honest the latter weren't as good, and were a bit of a disappointment, I'd have preferred a purely solo set. Despite that it was a superb evening.

A new all-time record, this has been sat on the side for the best part of two months waiting for me to be in the mood for a Kurosawa film. I'm still not really in the mood for it, but I'm fed up of looking at it, so here we go.
From the opening chords of Hells Bells to the closing refrains of Comfortably Numb, Hayseed Dixie proved themselves to be the almost perfect party band.
They played for nearly two hours with only the briefest of breaks before the encore, and worked their way through songs about killing, something to do with fracking, and many many songs about drinking. Although I felt slightly sorry for the lady at the front who was serenaded with "I'm keeping your poop in a jar", but I think she took it well.
Hopefully there will be more of the same when they play Frome in October.

Release Date:

Date Published:
March 29, 2011
Full of incredible characters, amazing athletic achievements, cutting-edge science, and, most of all, pure inspiration, Born to Run is an epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt? In search of an answer, Christopher McDougall sets off to find a tribe of the world8217;s greatest distance runners and learn their secrets, and in the process shows us that everything we thought we knew about running is wrong.Isolated by the most savage terrain in North America, the reclusive Tarahumara Indians of Mexico8217;s deadly Copper Canyons are custodians of a lost art. For centuries they have practiced techniques that allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest and chase down anything from a deer to an Olympic marathoner while enjoying every mile of it. Their superhuman talent is matched by uncanny health and serenity, leaving the Tarahumara immune to the diseases and strife that plague modern existence. With the help of Caballo Blanco, a mysterious loner who lives among the tribe, the author was able not only to uncover the secrets of the Tarahumara but also to find his own inner ultra-athlete, as he trained for the challenge of a lifetime: a fifty-mile race through the heart of Tarahumara country pitting the tribe against an odd band of Americans, including a star ultramarathoner, a beautiful young surfer, and a barefoot wonder.With a sharp wit and wild exuberance, McDougall takes us from the high-tech science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever-growing numbers of ultrarunners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, finally, to the climactic race in the Copper Canyons. Born to Run is that rare book that will not only engage your mind but inspire your body when you realize that the secret to happiness is right at your feet, and that you, indeed all of us, were born to run.From the Hardcover edition.
Christopher McDougall, a journalist and running enthusiast, sets out in search of a legendary tribe of tireless runners who live within the massive Copper Canyon of Mexico. The Tarahumara Indians reportedly can run for hundreds of miles without wearing down, and switch instantly to sprint mode to chase down a deer if necessary. McDougall struggles through miles of wilderness to find the reclusive Tarahumara, and is surprised to find a mysterious outsider named Caballo Blanco, or "white horse," living among them. As McDougall trains with the Indians and learns their ancient secrets of health and endurance, he achieves a sense of enlightenment which will completely alter his perspective on running and every other form of motion. To celebrate his newfound spirituality and stamina, he organizes a grueling 50-mile race between members of the Tarahumara tribe and an eclectic mix of distance champions from the United States.

Back on the mainland, we decided it was so nice that we would stay for dinner. There was a
festival on at the shoreline with tents and live music so we decided to take in the surroundings with a beer and some BBQ chicken and chips. It was the perfect way to end the day and magical to see the mountains fade in the falling light and turn into silhouettes. We didn't have long to drive into the mountains to our hotel called Prinzregent in Marquartstein.

The train ride from Vienna was breathtaking as we traveled through a gorgeous valley surrounded by striking mountains. Zell Am See is a beautiful town on a lake in the valley.

Half way across Germany and after a bit of sleep in the car for me I woke to German hills dotted ...

Environmental Pollution Studies
By Gerry Best
Environmental Pollution Studies
By Gerry Best
This book examines a number of important contemporary environmental issues in an informative and easy-to-read style. The topics covered include sewage treatment, eutrophication, air pollution, acid rain, global warming and pollution from farming. A particularly valuable section of the book describes a range of tests that can be carried out on various environmental parameters. The procedures require relatively simple equipment and they have been pre-tested in a school laboratory. Environmental Pollution Studies will be of value to senior school pupils and students at college or university embarking on courses in environmental science. "An extremely useful introduction to a complex and important topic... I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to anyone involved in teaching any aspect of the environmental sciences."--Teaching Earth Sciences

The snowy weather has brought on a rash of accidents in the area Monday night.
The State Highway Patrol responded to a one-vehicle roll-over crash on S.R. 40 near Ridge Road in Hopewell around 7:30 p.m.
"The vehicle was eastbound on US 40 in the left lane, the vehicle lost control, stated she was driving 55 miles hour. She went off the road and struck the embankment and overturned," said Trooper Todd Henry.
The driver, who was a juvenile, was able to escape the vehicle uninjured. Trooper Henry said she will be cited with failure to control.
He said this winter they have seen a high number of one-vehicle crashes and advises using caution when traveling.
"You do need to slow down, that's mainly your best way. You just need to slow down and be very cautious," said the trooper.
He said speed and conditions were most likely a factor in the crash.

The Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan will be holding parliamentary elections this August and is hoping to make a positive impression with the international community about its progress towards democracy. If the past is any guide, that won't be easy. Since it gained independence from the former Soviet Union in 1992, Nursultan Nazarbayev, a crooked ex-Communist Party hack, has ruled Kazakhstan. Recently the Great Leader oversaw the passage of constitutional amendments that effectively allow him to rule for life.
Kazakhstan has held a number of presidential and parliamentary elections since independence, all of which have been marred by gross fraud. The State Department's most recent human rights report on Kazakhstan reports "severe limits on citizens' rights to change their government; an incident of unlawful deprivation of life; military hazing that led to deaths; detainee and prisoner abuse; unhealthy prison conditions; arbitrary arrest and detention, particularly of government opponents; lack of an independent judiciary; increased restrictions on freedom of speech, the press, assembly, and association; pervasive corruption, especially in law enforcement and the judicial system; restrictions on the activities of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs); discrimination and violence against women; trafficking in persons."
So it's safe to say that the conditions are not auspicious for this August's election, which will be monitored by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). But Erlan Idrissov, Kazakhstan's Ambassador-Designate to the United States, has a public relations plan to ensure that no matter how rigged the election, it will be perceived to be free and fair.
"I have arrived in Washington, DC and pending the presentation of my Credentials I am happy to start looking around and making my first informal contacts with our friends," Idrissov recently wrote in a letter I obtained. "My Embassy colleagues have told me that you are one of them and that you have made a remarkable personal input into promoting cooperation and understanding between Kazakhstan and the United States."
I'm not sure who received the letter, but recipients very likely include lobbyists, local academics, and think tank representatives favorable to Kazakhstan. The purpose of the letter, Idrissov went on to tell its recipients, was "to offer you an opportunity to enrich your experience related to our country as well as to assist in further development of a fledgling democracy in Kazakhstan." The opportunity he referred to was to apply to be an observer to the August election as part of the OSCE team, which allocates twenty percent of its positions to Americans.
Idrissov said his government was "doing our utmost to guarantee [the] success" of the election, and believed that it was important that the observer team be made up of "experienced and knowledgeable representatives capable of making broad-based, well-balanced and forward-looking observations." In other words, people in the tank for the Nazarbayev regime.
"Having been told that you are such a person who does care about the sustained economic and political growth of Kazakhstan, I decided to write to you to ask if you could kindly consider joining the OSCE observer team through the US quota," Idrissov continued. Interested parties should apply, he said, through Pacific Architects and Engineers, a private security contractor owned by Lockheed Martin that is recruiting the American observers. He urged would-be observers to contact Deputy Chief of Mission Talgat Kaliyev or Counselor Askar Tazhiev if they needed "additional assistance" or "visa support." (I emailed both to ask for the name of recipients of the letter and to learn more about how one might apply as an observer but as of yet have not heard back.)
Incidentally, Idrissov's prior posting was as his country's ambassador to the United Kingdom. His most notable achievement there was taking on Borat, "By all means laugh at Borat if you will, but I suspect that once you know something of the true Kazakhstan his antics will leave a nasty aftertaste," he wrote in The Guardian. "Indeed, you may not laugh at all." He was right. The more we see of the true Kazakhstan–its nuclear ambitions and political corruption–the less we feel inclined to laugh.
