Signaling Transport for CDMA - INLink®
Cost-effective mobile solutions that provide the network backbone for variety of advanced, intelligent network services
With competition increasing in the mobile industry, you need efficient and cost-effective ways to provide international roaming services. Syniverse had designed INLink® services for ANSI-41 or GSM-based operators as a set of intelligent network-based services specifically to help you overcome this challenge.
A Dependable Framework for Expanding Your ServicesRegardless of your size, location, switch type, technology level or network transport protocol, INLink® CDMA Signaling Transport Services provide the network backbone for a variety of advanced, intelligent network services and features that make roaming possible. These include call delivery, fraud control, local number portability and calling name features. Using INLink can help you:
- Reduce SS7 network costs – One connection to Syniverse connects you to all other wireless operators using SS7, freeing you from the costs of building and maintaining your own extensive SS7 network
- Reduce roaming costs – With connections to all other operators using SS7, changing roaming partners to take advantage of lower roaming costs is a simple process
- Provide greater control over fraud through real-time interoperability to non-compatible systems
- Enable seamless roaming for end users
- Offer high-quality, seamless connectivity and interoperability to other wireless operators regardless of size, location, switch type, signaling protocol, technology level or network transport protocol
- Support other SS7 services over the same physical links so new revenue-enhancing services can be added quickly
- Integrate connectivity to international wireless networks as well as to LECs and IXCs
- Ensure reliability and reduce demands on your staff through our 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week monitoring of both the network and applications
INLink® uses ANSI-41 or GSM signaling protocol over the SS7 network to provide these intelligent network-based services. ANSI or GSM messages are transported over mated pairs of Tekelec Eagle STPs, which are in geographically diverse locations across the United States. To enable seamless roaming, interoperability and other enhanced services, INLink uses the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA) standard of 144 milliseconds for 95 percent of messages as the maximum transit time for transporting a query message from a requesting network element to the processing network element.
With our intelligent network design, we can exceed the industry standards for network availability and help you offer faster, more efficient and cost-effective services.

Fortress of Owls (original 1999; edition 2000)
by C.J. Cherryh
Work details
Fortress of Owls by C. J. Cherryh (1999)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Tristen continues poking around the edges of the Hasufin problem. Sadly , the amount of padding is serious. This volume has little action. This world isn't interesting to explore, with too much made of transport problems. Weakest Cherryh I've ever read.
It started out strong, and just kind of finished poorly. Not my kind of book I guess.
Not her finest hour. A hard slog through descriptions of writs and proclamations, experiments with alliteration etc. Have faith, though, as the fourth book is much better. You might as well read on to the end of the series, having wasted this much of your life.
See Fortress in the Eye of Time.
Definetly the weakest of the series so far., setting up for a conclusion hopefully in the next book.
Tristen is installed as Lord of Amefel and has to wait through winter before Cefwyn will attack the new enemy leading the colalition of the North, to keep his kingdom united. Tristen understands, but it isn't easy. Cefwyn has other problems though, he has to keep his fragile alliance of northern barons together - despite their attempts to subvert his intention.
Enuin is with Tristen adn through him we finally learn some of the details of how magic and wizardry work in the world. Tristen is beginningin to grasp he really is fundamentally different. The plot climaxes (just about) at Midwinter when the Year of Years comes to a close and patterns are set for the next period.
the characters still work well and Tristen is particularly well portrayed as he starts to learn the law of unintended consequences, but the plot is essentially on hold waiting for Spring, and this makes it a fairly slow read.

Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0061020087, Mass Market Paperback)
"I Dreamed of Owl. That Means Wizardry is Near."
Tristen is a weapon in an ancient war between wizardry and sorcery. He is a summoning and a shaping, brought to life by a wizard. And his sword is a weapon as well. Its keen blade, marked Illusion on one side and Truth on the other, once helped Tristen win the throne of Ylesuin for the young king Cefwyn, gaining Tristen the stewardship of the brave country of Amefel.
Tristen's rule in Amefel is blessed with two extraordinary friends: one a stalwart and simple warrior, the other a young rebel with royal blood. But the scarlet banners of war are unfolding again, and far more than a kingdom is at stake. Now Tristen must take up the sword--as well as the Sihhë magic he has forsworn. He is destiny's own, created a combatant in a far older and more fearsome conflict than any ever imagined by mere mortal man. And he is about to do battle once more. . . .
Rich with magic, intrigue, and adventure, this high fantasy series from the acclaimed C. J. Cherryh brings to life an enchanting world as real as, yet far more wondrous, than our own.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:13:21 -0400)
The adventures of a swordsman who has been created out of nothing by a magician. As he has been in existence for only a year, Tristen is green in the ways of the world and through his eyes are seen facets of our culture. By the author of Fortress in the Eye of Time.… (more)

How To Cook Vegetables In The Microwave
How to Cook Vegetables in the Microwave. In this video, a microwave cooking expert shows you how to cook vegetables in the microwave. She gives advice on what you need to do before the vegetables go into the microwave, how much time the vegetables need to cook and what the advantages are of eating microwaved vegetables. You'll be saving energy and retaining lots of vitamins, you would otherwise throw away with the cooking water.
Hi, I'm Jennipher Marshall Jenkinson, chairman of the UK Microwave Technologies Association and author of the prize-winning cookbook, Microwave Magic: The Art of 21th Century Cooking. And today, I'm going to show you how to cook vegetables in a microwave. Now, you can't actually beat the flavour and colour of vegetables that have been cooked in a microwave oven.
I've got here a selection of vegetables today. And all I've done is to cut them into small chunks, evenly sized pieces. And I've rinsed them under cold running water.
Now I've got enough vegetables in this dish here to serve approximately 4 people. So I've got, as I said, carrots, cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli. And I'm going to fill the dish with the washed vegetables, close the lid on the dish and that's all there's needed.
So, vegetables in here enough for 4 people. Now, I am going to cook this for approximately 7 minutes in the microwave. And while that's cooking, I'll tell you a little bit more.
There we are. Now, there are more nutrients retained in microwave cooked vegetables than by any other cooking method. If you think of cooking 4 sauce pans of vegetables on the top of the stove, that will actually cost you approximately 28 penns in money, and a great deal of the nutrients, the vitamins and minerals, will be washed away in the vegetable cooking water.
Usually between 60 and 80% of the nutrients will be lost in the cooking water. But by cooking your vegetables in the microwave, not only are you saving yourself the washing up and the energy consumption of 4 sauce pans. You're only cooking the vegetables themselves, in the moisture that's in the food itself.
So you're steaming the vegetables in their own juices, as it were. And you retain 85% of the vitamins in there. So, it's a very, very healthy way of cooking and taking up to 5 times less power.
Now, choosing the cooking time, one vegetable, one portion of vegetables, say one portion of carrots, or one portion of cauliflower will actually take 2 minutes to cook for each individual person. Now I've used 4 vegetables in here. So 2 minutes, times by 4, would give you 8 minutes in total cooking time.
Now I've just taken that slighly under, because overcooked vegetables are horrid. So it's always best to undercook the vegetables first, make sure they're thoroughly cooked and you can always add a minute or so of extra cooking time. But if you've overcooked them, they're ruined.
Let's see what these look like at the end of their 7 minutes cooking time. Right there's our 7 minutes cooking time, let's have a look what these vegetables look like. Ah, absolutely perfect.
The broccoli and the cauliflower. Just offering a little bit of resistance. And the carrots here, beautiful.
Al dente as it were. The colour as you can see of the broccoli, lovely and bright, beautiful colour. Lots of flavour, lots of nutrients.
What could be easier than cooking all your vegetables in one dish in the microwave, saving you lots of power, lots of energy and retaining all those lovely vitamins.

NAPEO's Government Affairs Initiative has long been recognized for a successful record of achievements benefiting member PEO firms. These successes are the result of the dedication of significant financial resources, the presentation of an effective message, the use of dedicated volunteers, and the work of a team of full time government affairs professionals. Working to protect and further the interest of PEOs of all sizes, NAPEO's legal and government affairs staff monitor bills, research legal issues, meet with regulators, and alert the membership of important and timely issues. These efforts are supported by more than a dozen professional lobbyists who represent NAPEO member interests in Washington, DC and state capitals nationwide.
NAPEO's proactive and aggressive government affairs activities are frequently cited as the Association's single most important service delivering statutory recognition and legal certainty to the industry while protecting it from overreaching regulations or laws.
Statutory Recognition
The single greatest impediment to the growth of the PEO industry is uncertainty concerning the rights or status of PEOs under the law. As NAPEO has successfully codified the rights of PEOs under state law, consumer acceptance has grown and markets have expanded. Furthermore, statutory certainty has provided a more stable marketplace and allowed PEOs to gain operational efficiencies and uniformity of business practices. PEOs cannot individually clarify and codify the legal rights of their PEO business under federal and state laws. It takes a strong, unified and dedicated national association to do that. NAPEO's federal legislation will eliminate uncertainties under the Internal Revenue Code regarding a PEO's ability to exercise employer rights for payroll taxes and employee benefit plan sponsorship. Solving the industry's federal tax and benefit plan challenges delivers real value for PEOs of all sizes. Additionally, NAPEO is working with local volunteers in state capitals nationwide to achieve statutory recognition for PEOs and to protect their authorities with regard to workers' compensation, unemployment insurance and group health sponsorship.
Expanding Markets
NAPEO's Government Affairs Initiative has also opened new markets for member PEOs as federal and state laws and programs are amended to recognize PEOs and co-employment. NAPEO efforts have led to:
All of these NAPEO efforts have preserved or expanded PEO business opportunities and have provided increased visibility to the PEO industry.
Operational Efficiencies
NAPEO's federal legislation returns real financial value to PEOs by streamlining the administration of a PEO 401(k) plan while
permitting different employer contributions for each client worksite. The law will also create new revenue opportunities by give PEOs credit for wages paid by a new client toward the FICA and FUTA tax wage base of worksite employees.
At the state level, NAPEO has enacted some form of statutory recognition in over half the states, has defeated or modified tax provisions that would have unfairly impacted PEOs, and has successfully worked to preserve PEO authorities in the area of workers' compensation, unemployment programs and benefits. NAPEO is delivering bottom line results to individual member PEO companies by limiting costly government regulation, and streamlining regulatory operations.
Millennium Project
Since 1999, NAPEO has allocated nearly $1 million of membership dues to its Millennium Project which funds specific state legislative initiatives. This has been a proactive effort to change state laws to promote and protect the PEO industry. These projects are directly focused toward establishing a more uniform and positive environment for PEOs nationwide.
Delivering Results
Whether eliminating a costly state sales tax on PEO services, codifying the right PEOs and their clients have to the exclusive remedy protection of workers' compensation, or establishing the right of PEOs to provide employer benefits, NAPEO's Government Affairs Initiative is delivering results that positively influence a PEO's bottom line. Join the association that has a proactive agenda, effective communications, dedicated professionals and the financial strength to deliver success for your company.
State-by-State Expansion of Legal & Operational Certainty
PEO or Employee Leasing-specific registration or licensing requirement was enacted.
State law recognition generally as an employer without a registration or licensing requirement.
Pending licensing or registration legislation.

SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) - Authorities in Bulgaria say a 56-year-old homeless man has died of exposure to the cold, bringing to three the total cold-related deaths this season.
Emergency official Anelia Georgieva said the man was found unresponsive on Friday morning on a street in the southwestern town of Dupnitsa. The bodies of two other people - a 70-year-old woman and a 59-year-old man - were recovered Thursday from snowdrifts in northern Bulgaria.
A sudden cold snap with temperatures plunging to minus 22 Celsius (minus 8 Fahrenheit) and heavy snow have gripped large parts of Bulgaria.
In the past week, blizzards have blocked roads, stranded villages, and disrupted power supplies across the Balkan states, though by Friday temperatures were rising in some areas.

We introduce ourselves to god, we bow our heads, await his nod.
But are we deaf, we hear no signs, no mighty voice from the divine.
Are we betrayed, we do not know,. There is no proof, nothing to show.
We walk away from hope and pray, we enter truth another way.
Oh where is god?
We walk a million miles each day. In search of what god has to say.
He says no words, we did not see. His voice appears in what we breathe.
He sends us pictures in our minds, we call our own, and still try to find.
The answers from the one divine. We're forced to step out of god's line.
A line to heaven, line to hell. One line for both, we cannot tell.
Our lives have blinded us with lies. We stopped believing in the skies.
Our answer, Science, we declare. Send us no Prophet from the air!
We'll try again to speak your words. With different meaning to be heard.
Oh where is god?
It isn't easy being right. Being afraid, alone at night. The world revolves around the sun. Leaving the night no where to run.
People go crazy thinking hard, but that's okay, death isn't far. Life lasts but less than a hundred years. Then one must walk up heavens stairs.
Life after life, we make it near. A million lives, to our souls a year. When we approach but heaven's gate, we will be tested on our faith.
The gate is weak, but we're not strong. Our weakness… all that we've done wrong. A shot at heaven, we await. But now the time's come for our fate.
Oh where is god?
The world has turned so many times. The sun has shone so many shines. But as we told ourselves before, end of existence at our door.
Have we not reached our destiny? Have we not learned all things are free? Have we forgotten what we are? Each deed in truth' brings out the stars.
Our children wasting our time. Is this so fair, they're next in line; to lead the knowledge of our way. To end the night, bring out the day.

SCOTUS, Sex, Sex Scandals, State Judges, State Judges Are Clowns, Supreme Court
We previously named Verna Sue Holland, a retired judge from Texas, an Ex-Judge of the Day. Now the ex-judge — or should that be "sex judge" — is back in the news.
Writes Adam Liptak, in the New York Times:
Charles Dean Hood was sentenced to death in 1990 by a Texas judge who had been sleeping with the prosecutor in his case. It took Mr. Hood almost 20 years to establish that fact.
But he finally managed to force the two officials to testify about their rumored affair in the fall of 2008. They admitted it.
Sounds like a conflict of interest that would justify overturning the conviction, right?
Not so fast. Not in Texas.
Texas's highest court for criminal matters, its Court of Criminal Appeals, considered all of this and concluded that Mr. Hood should be executed anyway. In a 6-to-3 decision in September, the court told Mr. Hood that he had taken too long to raise the issue of whether a love affair between a judge and a prosecutor amounted to a conflict of interest.
Mr. Hood has asked the United States Supreme Court to hear his case. On Thursday, 21 former judges and prosecutors filed a brief supporting him. So did 30 experts in legal ethics.
Question presented: whether a conflict of interest arising out of an affair between a judge and a prosecutor is vitiated if the affair was lousy.
"Affair" may be a generous characterization of the relationship. Because this was, to quote one judge who heard the appeal, "hardly the torrid relationship of romance novels":
The affair itself, as described in the depositions of the two former lovers, sounded tawdry and sad.
Judge Verla Sue Holland, who presided over Mr. Hood's case in a district court in Collin County, Tex., testified that she and the prosecutor, Thomas S. O'Connell Jr., had had sex at each other's homes when their spouses were away. This happened, she said, seven or eight times.
Mr. O'Connell did not seem especially romantic. Judge Holland testified that he once gave her a picture of a polar bear with a matching cup. Another time he gave her a chafing dish.
Come on baby light my… Sterno can? Giving your lover a chafing dish sends a strange message. "Your body is a
wonderland… hot buffet?"
(If he had given her a chocolate penis instead of a chafing dish, maybe the Texas court would have tossed out the conviction.)
Perhaps the relationship isn't grounds for overturning the conviction because, if anything, it made Judge Holland biased against the prosecution. It sounds like prosecutor Thomas O'Connell was an inconsiderate lover:
He never stayed the night. "I had a truck that everybody recognized," Mr. O'Connell explained.
And he might have been more sympathetic when Judge Holland's mother died.
"Tom didn't send a card," the judge testified. "He didn't send flowers. He didn't come by. He didn't call. You know, I think that's pretty callous."
We feel bad for Judge Holland. But, at the same time, it sounds like she may have mistaken a "f**k buddy" relationship for a true "love affair." What was Judge Holland expecting — whore flowers, delivered to chambers?
And flowers and phone calls might have blown the lovers' cover, since Judge Holland kept this relationship firmly underneath her robe:
Whatever the precise contours and intensity of the affair, Judge Holland did testify that she would have disqualified herself from Mr. Hood's case had his lawyers asked. But she also said she and Mr. O'Connell had kept their extramarital affair secret. She said it ended in 1987, three years before Mr. Hood's trial.
She would have stepped aside if asked — but how were Hood's lawyers to have known about the relationship? Practice pointer for Texas defense lawyers: file a protective Motion to Recuse in Case the Judge Used to Sleep with the Prosecutor, in all of your pending cases.
In her deposition, Judge Holland said she had lately become angry with Mr. Hood's lawyers for "annihilating my reputation." She said she had asked the attorney general's office to represent her in Mr. Hood's challenge to her conduct because she thought she needed to fight back. She was "tired of laying over," she said, and "getting licked without any input."
Actually, it sounds like Judge Holland quite enjoyed "laying over" and "getting licked." So it seems rather untimely for her to be worrying about her "reputation."
In all seriousness, this case isn't completely clear-cut. The sexual relationship ended some three years before the trial, and it seems like O'Connell was a piss-poor paramour anyway. Was Judge Holland somehow obligated to mention, sua sponte, that the prosecutor used to pay nocturnal visits to her "in chambers" — bedchambers, that is — years ago?
Should there perhaps be a "statute of limitations" on sexual relationships between litigation participants and the presiding judge as grounds for disqualification? What if the judge and a litigant had hooked up back in college — would that be enough to disqualify?
And what precise level of physical intimacy would trigger recusal? As we once wondered: "If the Court Has Gone Down on You, Is Recusal Required?"
We hope the Supreme Court grants certiorari. It would be interesting to watch the justices tackle these thorny questions.

INDIANAPOLIS — A local FFA chapter has developed a plan to tackle an environmental issue in the community, and now it's FFA members have received a national grant to bring their ideas to life.
The Ponderosa FFA in Shingle Springs received a $1,663 grant from the National FFA Organization's Living to Serve: Environmental Grant program and will begin their yearlong environmental project when the school year resumes. The Living to Serve: Environmental Grants are provided through funding from CSX, as a special project of the National FFA Foundation.
The Ponderosa FFA project includes plans to construct a three stall compost bin to collect animal waste and compostable items from the school and local community. Ponderosa plans to sell the finished product to home gardeners in the spring and use a portion on the school farm to support student horticulture and crop projects.
The National FFA Organization makes grant funds available for FFA chapters to develop service-learning projects that impact environmental issues in their community. Chapters may apply for up to $2,000 to support yearlong service-learning projects focused on developing and implementing projects that address local environmental needs. The service-learning method challenged members to identify, research, develop and implement solutions to needs within their school or community.
These projects illustrate the final line of the FFA motto ("Learning to Do, Doing to Learn, Earning to Live, Living to Serve") by encouraging FFA members to unite in service within their communities. The LTS: Environmental Grants take community service one step further to service-learning, which provides a meaningful way to apply leadership and education skills learned in school and FFA.
The National FFA Organization, formerly known as Future Farmers of America, is a national youth organization of 540,379 student members as part of 7,489 local FFA chapters in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. The FFA mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

Inc. magazine has ranked Salt Lake City-based Spillman Technologies as one of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the nation, marking the sixth consecutive year that the company has been included in the exclusive list.
"We are very proud to receive this recognition for the sixth year in a row," said Spillman President and CEO Lance Clark. "We believe that our continued growth in this economy is due to our commitment to innovation and our dedication to building lasting relationships with customers."
Spillman has experienced a 40 percent increase in revenue from 2008 to 2011 and has added 41 new customers since the beginning of 2012. Inclusion on the Inc. 5,000 list places Spillman among the ranks of companies like Microsoft, Oracle and Facebook.
According to Inc., the list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the nation represents a comprehensive look at the health of America's independent entrepreneurs. The companies on this year's list maintained a median growth rate of 97 percent, have created more than 400,000 jobs in the last three years, and have an aggregate revenue of $299 billion.
The 2012 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2008 to 2011. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2008. Additionally, they had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2011. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2008 is $100,000; the minimum for 2011 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Companies on the Inc. 5000 are featured in Inc.'s September issue. They represent the top tier of the Inc. 5000, which will be listed at http://www.inc.com/500 on Aug. 21.
In a letter to honorees, Inc. magazine Editor-in-Chief Eric Schurenberg applauded the efforts of those on the list.
"To be honored this year is a particularly notable achievement. To rank among the 2012 Inc. 5,000, your company had to thrive through three of the toughest years this economy has seen in recent memory," Schurenberg stated. "Your success in such times is eloquent testimony to your team's creativity, resilience, and tenacity."

To honor the deceased veterans in their respective communities, the annual Kewaunee Memorial Day observance under the auspices of Kewaunee Post 29 of the American Legion, in cooperation with the various veterans' organizations of Kewaunee County, will be held the morning of May 27 at the Courthouse by the Veterans Memorial.
During the week prior to the Memorial Day observance, flags will be placed at each deceased veteran's grave on the two city cemeteries.
On Memorial Day, veterans will assemble at the Post 29 American Legion building at the intersection of Lincoln and Juneau streets at 9:30 a.m. and proceed to the Kewaunee Care Center for a Memorial Day service on the Care Center grounds at 9:45 a.m.
After this ceremony the Color Guard, firing squad, and veterans will proceed to Kewaunee High School to join the Kewaunee High School Band, Kewaunee City Fire Department, and other parade units. The parade will begin at 10:15 a.m. and proceed north on Third Street to Riverview Cemetery for a firing off of Miller Street in memory of, and to honor, all deceased veterans buried in that cemetery. The parade will then proceed east on Miller Street, south on Second Street, and east on Vliet Street to the Holy Rosary Church cemetery where a firing will be held in the center of the cemetery. The parade will then proceed to the Kewaunee County Courthouse.
Immediately after the parade and cemetery ceremonies, beginning at approximately 11 a.m., a program will be held at the Kewaunee County Courthouse, featuring the Kewaunee High School Band, an invocation by the Rev. William Swichtenberg of Holy Rosary Parish, and speaker Amanda Kudick of Kewaunee High School, along with the reading of the Rolls of Honor recognizing veternas buried in Kewaunee cemeteries. A wreath placement ceremony will also be performed at the Veterans Memorial honoring all Kewaunee County servicemen who gave their lives in war.
In the event of inclement weather, the program will be held at the Kewaunee High School gymnasium at 11:15 a.m. Immediately following the ceremony on the Courthouse grounds, the public is invited by the American Legion for refreshments and lunch at the Kewaunee Legion Building.
Note: Post 319's Memorial Day schedule was inadvertently listed incorrectly in the Veterans Voice section of the May 18 Star-News. The following is the correct announcement.
On Memorial Day, the Casco American Legion Legionaries and Auxiliary are invited to help us honor our departed comrades. As in past years, the post will visit each of its assigned cemeteries with a full color guard and firing squad. The public is invited to attend the ceremonies, either in observing or participating in the events.
The following are approximate times at each location:
? 7:30 a.m. St. Hubert's Cemetery, Rosiere
? 7:50 a.m. Plymouth Brethren Cemetery, "North of Lincoln"
? 8:15 a.m. St. Peter's Cemetery, Lincoln
? 9 a.m. St. Adalberts Cemetery, Slovan
? 9:20 a.m. West Slovan Cemetery, "corner of C & T"
? 10 a.m. Mass at Holy Trinity, Casco, followed by the Casco Cemetery Service.
? 11 a.m. (time approximate) Memorial Service and Wreath presentation at the Veterans Memorial in Casco

Ellie Macdonald, left, and Caroline Moran, right, of Burlington play in the snow this morning. / MOLLY WALSH / Free Press
As of 5 a.m., the highly anticipated heavy Vermont snowstorm is behaving pretty much as forecast.
Accumulations so far mostly range from 2 to 6 inches statewide, and well have a lot more than that by the time its done.
Early this morning the snow seems to be coming up from the southeast in bands. As a band passes through a particular spot, it snows hard, and after it passes, things lighten up.
During the heavier bursts of snow, itll come down at a rate of 1 or 2 inches an hour. Particularly heavy periods might dump on us at a 3 inch per hour rate. During those moments, you basically cant see anything when youre driving, so be especially careful.
Winds have been fairly strong on the western slopes of the Green Mountains, with a gust to 45 mph in Danby. There have been a few power failures, affecting maybe 200 people in southwestern Vermont because of those western slope winds
However, I dont think power failures will be a huge problem today. Winds wont roar like they did last Friday. The snow is powdery, so it will blow off the trees and power lines instead of weighing them down and snapping branches and wires.
As the day wears on, winds will shift and come more out of a northerly, instead of an easterly direction. Winds might diminish a bit on the western slopes, but increase pretty much everywhere else. Gusts could reach 30 mph, which would easily blow the powdery snow around. Look out for the occasional whiteout on the highways in snow and blowing snow today.
This state of affairs will probably continue all day, though as the low moves up the coast, the direction from which the areas of heavy snow approach Vermont might turn east to west, then eventually roughly north to south later today and tonight.
Taking a look at the National Weather Services winter storm warning and forecast map, it seems as if the deepest snow will end up along the spine of the Green Mountains and in northwestern Vermont, where 12 to 18 inches might fall.
I think the heavier expected accumulation in the Champlain Valley is because often with this type of storm, a heavier band of precipitation sets up and stalls for a time on the northwest flank of a storm, usually a couple hundred miles away from the storm center.
A north wind in the later stages of a storm like this one also sometimes channels and focuses moisture in the Champlain Valley.
Some of the Green Mountains in the northern half of Vermont, , including some ski areas, could easily get close to two feet of fresh snow out of this. So, Powder Day Alert!!!!
Toward the end of the storm late tonight and the first half of Friday, snow will diminish in most of Vermont, but continue along the peaks and western slopes of the Green Mountains as moist northwest winds wring out snow as they climb those western slopes.
New Hampshires White Mountains are blocking some of the storms moisture from the Northeast Kingdom, so theyll only get 6 to 10 inches of snow out of this. Far southwestern Vermont will get similar amounts.
The heavy snow will diminish tonight, but fall in a lighter fashion overnight and the first half of Friday, which means roads will remain hazardous in a lot of places.
Forecasts are wavering a bit for Saturday. Initially it looked like another big storm would hit, then it appeared the storm would move too far to the east of Vermont to have any effect. Now, forecasters are edging that storm back westward a bit, which could give us a few inches of snow Saturday night.
The snow is likeliest in the southeastern half of Vermont. The northwest might not get much at all out of the weekend system.
Look for an Arctic blast early next week that would likely drop nighttime temperatures across most of Vermont below zero.
Winter is here, isnt it?

Kim Cattrall (pronounced /kəˈtræl/, rhyming with shall; born 21 August
1956) is a Golden-Globe award winning English-Canadian actress. Kim Cattrall is known for
role as Samantha Jones in the HBO comedy/romance series Sex and the City, and
for her leading roles in the 1980s films Police Academy and Mannequin.
Kim was born in Widnes, Cheshire, England. When she was less than a year old, her family emigrated to the Canadian city of Courtenay, British Columbia. At 11, she returned to Cheshire when her grandmother became ill, and she studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), before returning to Canada at 16 where she finished her final year of secondary school.
Kim began her career after graduating from high school in 1972 when she left Canada for New York City. There, she attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and upon her graduation signed a five-year movie deal with director Otto Preminger, making her film debut in Preminger's Rosebud in 1975. A year later, Universal Studios bought out that contract and Kim became one of the last participants of the Universal Contract Player System. During her time with Universal, she guest starred in numerous television programmes of varying style and genre. In 1979, she played Dr. Gabrielle White in The Incredible Hulk and would go down in TV Hulk lore as one of the few characters who knew David Banner was alive and was the creature. Her work in television paid off, and she quickly made the transition to cinema. She starred opposite Jack Lemmon in his Oscar-nominated movie Tribute in 1980. The following year, she starred in the critically acclaimed Ticket to Heaven and play as Guest Star at TV Mini-Series Scruples.
In 1982, Kim played Miss Honeywell (Lassie) in Porky's, followed two years later by a role in the original Police Academy. In 1985, she starred in three movies: Turk 182, City Limits and Hold-Up, the latter with French star Jean-Paul Belmondo. In 1986, she played Kurt Russell's brainy flame in the action film Big Trouble in Little China. In 1987, her lead role in Mannequin proved a huge success with audiences. One of her best-known film roles is that of Lieutenant Valeris in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.
Aside from her film work, Kim is also a stage and theater actress, with performances in Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge and Anton Chekhov's Three Sisters to her credit. In 1997, she was cast in Sex and the City, Darren Star's series which was broadcast on HBO. As Samantha Jones, Kim gained international recognition. She capitalized on her success by appearing in steamy television commercials promoting Pepsi One.
In 2005, she appeared in the Disney picture Ice Princess, in which she played the ice skating coach of the film's lead character. She portrayed Claire, a paralyzed woman who wants to die, in the West End drama revival of Whose Life Is It Anyway? In October 2006, she appeared in a West End production of David Mamet's The Cryptogram at the Donmar Warehouse in London. Since late 2005, she has appeared in a number of British television commercials for Tetley Tea. In July 2006, a commercial for Nissan cars, which featured Kim as Samantha Jones, was withdrawn from New Zealand television, apparently because of complaints about its innuendo. In 2006, she starred alongside Brendan Gleeson in John Boorman's 2006 film The Tiger's Tail, a black comedy that focuses on the impact of the Celtic Tiger economy on Irish people. On 11 November on ITV, she starred alongside David Haig, Daniel Radcliffe, and Carey Mulligan in My Boy Jack, the story of author Rudyard Kipling's search for his son lost in World War I.
On 2 June 2008 Kim was reported to be set to star in and executive produce Sensitive Skin for HBO, an adaptation of the eponymous British series revolving around a middle-aged wife and mother who rediscovers her sexuality.
Kim has also been linked with former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, Houston Rockets stars Cuttino Mobley and Steve Francis, actor Daniel Benzali, musician Gerald Casale of the New Wave group Devo, French public intellectual Bernard-Henri Lévy, and her Whose Life is it Anyway? co-star Alexander Siddig. She currently resides in New York City and in East Hampton, New York.

Need to track this study down because it seems from the coverage to be a bit wanting. Like much interactive agency-driven search research, Atlas approaches search from a banner-buyers perspective:
Atlas studied 30 search ad campaigns reaching 120,000 users on Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft. It found that nearly half of clicks on ads came from people who had already visited the advertiser's Web site. (AdWeek: Are Search Ads a Waste of Money?)
So, the other half haven't already visited the site. Even if you attribute no value to a repeat visitor via search, I bet the effective CPM on the clicks of first time visitors still looks better than the average banner campaign.
And how many marketers attribute no value to a repeat visitor. Does this sentence sound right? "It found that nearly half the visits to the mall came from people who had already visited the advertiser's store". Or, "half the recipients of the catalog had already ordered from the advertiser's catalog."

MARIETTA, Ga. — Cobb County School District (CCSD) is keeping about 2,500 school bus stops that had been slated for elimination to save money.
After communicating with parents concerned about the cuts, district officials responded with a plan to save about a quarter of the 11,000 stops that were to be cut. CCSD had about 50,000 stops total.
A blog post on the CCSD Website said that input from the public helped maximize the efficiency of the process, and some stops will be improved based on the feedback.
District spokesperson Jay Dillon told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the revised plan included adjusting the distance criteria: Stops for elementary students will be as close as a quarter of a mile to schools, while stops for middle- and high-schoolers will be as close as a half-mile.
To enhance safety and efficiency, stops were moved to locations where at least 10 to 15 students wait for buses, and some stops were moved off of busy streets.
Last week, as transportation department employees worked diligently to adjust and finalize the district's bus routes for the coming school year, two school board members surprised them with a pizza luncheon to thank them for their hard work.
As noted in the district blog post, the event was an opportunity for the board members, David Banks and Lynnda Crowder-Eagle, to see the transportation facility and equipment firsthand. CCSD Transportation Director Rick Grisham introduced Banks and Crowder-Eagle to his staff.
School starts Monday for CCSD students.

Cool to see some San Gabriel photos up there. I was in Palmdale for Christmas visiting the folks. Hiked the Mount Emmas with my dad one day, ran into some guys smoking meth near one of the summits.....ahhh Palmdale. For that same week I got in a 9.5 miler (half of which I spent lost in the snow), a 5.5 miler on a wonderful new to me trail in St George, and a 16 miler for a long run. I applaud those who were able to get any real distance in this week with all the holidays and laziness. I got in two 4 mile runs while I was still in California, an icy canyoneering hike in Zion - 8 miles/2500 ft of gain, and a 12 mile snow run on a groomed trail in Park City today. No running pics but here are some canyoneering photos from the other day: https://picasaweb.google.com/107561442771983387605/MysteryHappy Birthday dudes!
best wishes to everyone! I started off the new year w/ a 14 mile (2014) run, temps were great, mid 30's, trail conditions were challenging w/ lots of ice, but other stretches that were perfectly dry- I ran the entire route in micropikes as the conditions changed too rapidly, the spikes performed flawlesslyweek was 0/0/14/6/strength/15/0 for a total of 35 mileslooking east towards the Elkhornslooking north towards the Big Belts
Happy New Year to Everyone,Whatever you decide to run.looking strong Mike, did you decide the screws weren't good enough ?I'm officially back up to 40 mile weeks,but was supposed to do a 22 miler yesterday and copped out for a 10 miler with lots of gain. so as soon as I finish this coffee I'm out the door for a make-up 11-12 miler.
Art- most of the winter the screws are sufficient, but when you get a lot glazed ice they just don't cut it- the microspikes dig deeply into the ice allowing you to run across anythingI prefer running w/o the spikes, but they are a godsend when you need them :)Mike
pic from post yesterday's run :)
I have a pair of NB MT20v2 on the way…Heading out to pick up a pair of Inov8 Trailroc 255s this afternoon.Looking to change my quiver up a little bit.I've been going long in a pair of NB110s or Brooks Cascadia 7s. The 110s are about worn out and the Cascadias are not my first choice (too much heel), but I got them for free. Looking to get a little more nimble and less drop with the Trailroc 255s. Hopefully I'll be happy with these as my distance shoe.The MT20s will be my <12 mile shoe (I love minimal but I've found that's about my tolerance level before the lack of support/rock plate starts causing foot issues). I had a few pairs of MT10s back in the day…hands down, my favorite shoe ever for short distances. I wish the durability were higher, but I suppose it comes with the territory for a shoe that feels like a sock.I really want to try a pair of Trailroc 150s but nobody around here stocks them.What are all of you liking these days?
I have a pair of Bedrock Earthquakes that I really like, but for really wet/rocky stuff I've been using a pair of MYOG 10mm huaraches with canvas tops that are nice and non-slip next to skin. Winters are pretty mild up here in the Puget Sound, so dealing with ice and snow is usually optional- stay low. On 30-40 degree days where I know I'm going to be soaked and chilly, I wear some Costco wool socks that I chopped and sewed into "lobster socks" to wear with sandals.
Edited by PorcupinePhobia on 01/05/2014 17:52:39 MST.
Craig- I've been having good luck w/ either the PI Trail N1's or N2's (N2's if it's rockier terrain), I have been wanting to try a pair of Inov-8's for awhile (my wife is using a pair of 245's), but haven't yetMike
my current two shoes of choice are :Cascadia 7 - yes they are "tanks" as Craig described them once, but they are built for long mileage, meaning more than 50 miles. I feel very protected in them, but yes I do also feel a bit slow and heavy in them.Pearl Izumi Peak II - no longer made, these are the predecessors to the N1 and N2.I love running in them for 20 miles or less, they almost make me feel like a runner.I've used them on a nonstop 45 miler in the Sierra, and on the J-Tree run last spring.50 miles is probably their limit for a run, but they might handle a multi day fast pack that is longer.Looking forward to trying out the PI N2's and hoping they somehow meld what is best about the above two models.
I really wanted the Inov8 Trailroc 255s to work, but trying them on again today, they just are a little weird in the toe for me.I guess I'll be sticking with the Cascadia 7s for a little longer. Might go ahead and try the Cascadia 9s when I wear them out- supposed to have a little less drop than previous models.The Cascadias are an awesome shoe- very comfortable, I've done some long runs and a good deal of backpacking in them. Like you said Art, they really shine when miles start getting high. I just wish they had a little less stack height.
I tried the Cascadia 9's on in the store last week.I don't have the specs yet but the stack height feels similar to the 7's.what I do like is a change in the front that seems to make you role onto the toe much easier. These could be the most runnable Cascadias yet.I would not waste money on the 8's,go straight to the 9's.
Craig, what size do you wear? I have a pair of size 14 cascadia 8s with plenty of life left you can have.
The last two weeks have been a mixed bag for me. Last week was a bit of a recovery week with few miles run. Got in a solid 23 mile adventure run the week before last up in the Sacramento Mtns. and Dog Canyon, my first run back here in years, with a healthy 4800' of vertical up to the turnaround. We ran the first 3K' up to the top of the rim, but hit snow from that point all the way up to the Sunspot Solar Observatory which sits at 9200'. Weather conditions were absolutely perfect, but the crusty pow took it out of us on the climb. Running down was fun and we picked up the pace where we could coming back down. I love these runs far more than any obligatory training run and feel I gain much from these experiences. Saturday's long run was pretty ho hum, but I still got after it and felt strong for the duration.Here are a few photographs from our Sacramento Mtns./Dog Canyon run:*Ran this in the Inov8 Trailroc 245. I had only done a few runs in the 245's prior to this one. I really like them for technical trail, but don't see myself running anything over a 50K distance without taking an unnecessary beating on my feet. Love the outsole more than any other feature of the shoe, second would be the low weight of the shoe. They feel damn fast. For dry craggy trail like we have here in the high desert, they're just about perfect for shorter hard effort runs. I also ordered the Trailroc 255 (* are you seeing the trend here? I went a little crazy on kicks the last few weeks) thinking they would have the same feel as the 245 but with some added cushion for training miles. These will work out for longer runs on technical trail, they just don't feel, to me, up for the task of higher volume training miles even with the added midsole cushion and durable upper. For running road to trail stretches, both shoes are bearable, but not for long. I haven't found anything out there this past year as good as the Pearl Izumi Trail N1 and N2 for general running, whether that be road or trail miles.
Edited by Eugeneius on 01/07/2014 22:15:31 MST.
How far do you live from those trails Eugene ?nice looking area.
Art, this area is about 1-1.5 hr east of my town. It's borderlining that distance from home where I start feeling a little guilty about driving to a trailhead for a run. These runs aren't a weekly thing. Most of the trails I run regularly are about 10 min from my door by vehicle. How about you guys? I get the impression Mike M. just hops out his front door to the trailhead up there in MT. Craig and Adan seem to be fairly close to the San Gabriels, but "close" by LA standards probably means some form of vehicular commute and traffic. Do you guys ever hit the road out your door for miles?
local training ...I live in a very suburban setting, but right next to one of the largest urban open space parks in the country (Mission Trails Park). So lots of trails 5 minutes from my house for short to medium distance runs, and there are even 3-4 hills with up to 1,000 ft of gain. However the biggest one has gotten quite popular as an outdoor gym, I'll have to post a photo of the "conga line" sometime.For long runs, the local mountains are 45-60 minutes away (6,000 ft elevation), with 40 miles of PCT running thru them. This is where our local ultra races are, SD 100 plus 4 others a bit shorter.I have to run a minimum of 1 mile on concrete before I hit dirt.I do sometimes run 4-10 mile road runs with rolling elevation gain/loss to try and increase my leg turnover. Lots of 20+ trail runs with power walking can really slow the legs down.
Edited by asandh on 01/08/2014 09:13:06 MST.
Most of my staple runs are out the door to the trail, no car needed. My house is less than one mile from a few different entrances to the Angeles National Forest/San Gabriels. If I don't run, I usually ride my bike to the trailhead. Many of the bigger peaks require driving to the trailhead, but I can do plenty without driving if I want to.
During the week, I use 5 trails within 10 minutes drive. A steep hill climb, a fun night-running rollercoaster, a woodsy creek, and a long runnable grind overlooking the city lights. Not spectacular stuff, but enjoyable enough that i look forward to them. However, on the weekends? Hell no, I'm driving. Exploring new mountains is what fuels my passion for running so I feel it's mandatory. Besides, I drive an hour daily to work, and to me this is just as good a reason to pony up the gas money. I feel 2-3 hours of driving is not too much to ask for something that gives me so much in return and costs nothing otherwise.Recent firsts for me:Baldy night-climb. Friday after work, snowy and no headlamp. 1hr driving.Baden-Powell with Craig. 6hrs fresh powder and ridge walking. 4hrs driving.San Gorgonio Wilderness, a new favorite camp discovered. 3hrs driving.Off-trail traverse of Baldy group, discovered some fantastic lines. 1hr drive.
Eugene- you're spot on, most of the trails I run are out my backdoor- not sure how many miles of different trail, but it's pretty substantial and if I want to make it long I link several trails together.One of the reasons I moved from Southeast MT to Westcentral MTI have a 50k Fatass this weekend, I feel underprepared, but the what the hell :) I do think I'm going to incorporate a run/walk regime ala Galloway; I think I'm going to try a 7.5 min run/2.5 min walk and see how that goes.Mike

INSURANCE COMPANY OF TEXAS. The Insurance Company of Texas was founded in Dallas in 1950 as a fire and casualty firm by Ben Jack Cage and became the most spectacular insurance company failure in the state's history. The thirty-three-year-old Cage established the firm with a $200,000 bank loan. In 1951 the Texas State Federation of Labor and representatives from hundreds of local unions agreed to purchase controlling interest in the ICT, which was to be managed by Cage for a 15 percent cut of the premiums. This "new plan" of management and labor in business was supposed to be operated primarily by and for union members, with policies sold at reduced rates. As union leaders continued to sell stock to thousands of union members, Cage drastically expanded the operations until 1954, when he controlled a bewildering network of seventy-four insurance, investment, and miscellaneous companies with an alleged $19 million in assets in twenty-three states. Responding to rumors and fears, the state federation's executive board called a halt to the empire building in December 1955, soon relieved Cage of his management contracts, and futilely attempted to salvage the company. In February 1957 the Texas Insurance Commission declared the ICT insolvent, with a nominal shortage of about $1 million. Legislative and grand jury investigations uncovered mismanagement, embezzlement, and attempted bribery of insurance commissioners. Cage fled to South America in 1958. In 1959 he was convicted of embezzling $100,000 from the ICT and sentenced to ten years in prison. The investigations into the collapse of the ICT and other insurance firms were followed by a strengthening of regulations and laws governing the Texas insurance industry.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Junior running back Tyler Banks (Meadville, PA / Meadville) scored a career-high two touchdowns, all in the first quarter, as the Westminster College football team opened the season with a 28-0 nonconference win over visiting Hiram Saturday night at Harold Burry Stadium. The Titans defeated Hiram in their season opener for the third straight season.
Banks, who rushed 19 times for 50 yards, scored on a pair of 2-yard touchdown runs. The first touchdown came on the Titans' first drive of the game, following a 44-yard punt return from senior Connor Kobis (Elma, NY / Bishop Timon-St. Jude). Banks's second score capped off an eight play-38 yard drive with 4:07 left in the first quarter.
In the second half, the Titans picked up where they left off as they scored with three minutes into the third quarter. Junior Dak Britt (Battle Creek, MI / Battle Creek) connected with senior Geno Pasquinelli (Salem, OH / Salem) for a 43-yard touchdown pass. Pasquinelli separated himself from the Hiram defender which created 10 yards of separation and an easy target for Britt.
Westminster's final score might have been the most impressive with an 18-play-98 yard drive. The Titans came out of a timeout and faced third-and-10 from their own 14-yard line. Junior Tommy Turnbull (Pittsburgh, PA / Avonworth), who took over for the injured Britt, found Kobis downfield for 21 yards and a Westminster first down. Westminster faced another third down on the drive, this time from the Hiram's 33 yard line. Britt was back in the game and found room for a six-yard rush and another Titan first down. Six plays later, Britt completed a pass to Kobis for a 5-yard touchdown pass.
Britt finished the game with 154 yards (14-for-25), two touchdowns, and an interception in his first game in a Titan uniform. The Tiffin transfer also had a game-high 52 yards on the ground off eight carries.
Pasquinelli led the Titans with six receptions for 81 yards and a touchdown and passed Lamont Boykins '83 for seventh all-time with 116 career receptions.
For the game, Westminster's offense out-powered Hiram 337-154 in yards.
The Titan defense was stout and only gave up 10 yards of rushing and picked off Hiram three times. Senior Derrick Orloski (Butler, PA / Slippery Rock) led Westminster with eight and a half tackles, including a team-high two tackles for a loss. Freshman Steve Ferringer (Pittsburgh, PA ) followed with five tackles. Senior Kyle Allen (New Wilmington, PA / West Middlesex) blocked a Hiram field goal attempt in the second quarter.
Westminster takes a week off and will travel to Thomas More on September 15 at 1:30 p.m.

text: PA Innocence Project at Temple Law Wins New Trial for Wrongfully Convicted Pittsburgh Man Wednesday February 19, 2014 The Pa Innocence Project at Temple Law has won a new trial for Greg Brown, convicted of arson and second degree murder eighteen years ago for a fire that killed three Pittsburgh firefighters. In a sharp rebuke to the federal government's actions in investigating the worst tragedy in Pittsburgh Fire Department history, Judge Joseph Williams today ordered that Brown's conviction be vacated and a new trial held. Eighteen years ago, Brown was convicted of setting the fire that took the lives of three Pittsburgh fire fighters on February 14, 1995. In ordering a new trial for Brown, who was 17 when sentenced to life without parole, Judge Williams ruled that the government intentionally withheld information critical to the jury's verdict: that the only two witnesses to inculpate Brown did so while expecting to receive thousands of dollars in cash for their testimony. Judge Williams called this an "egregious lapse in judgment" made Brown's trial "so unfair [that] the Court does not have confidence in the guilt determination." A dogged investigation begun by veteran journalist Bill Moushey of Point Park University years after Brown's conviction uncovered the $15,000 in payments to the witnesses. The Pennsylvania Innocence Project, through local pro bono counsel Dave Fawcett and Jason Hazlewood of Reed Smith, tracked down evidence that the key witnesses against Brown, including a troubled 15 year old, testified expecting thousands of dollars in reward money from federal investigators - and that neither the jury, the judge or Greg Brown's trial counsel were told of the arrangement. Although not part of the hearing, the Pennsylvania Innocence Project also consulted international fire experts who believe the fire was likely not an arson at all, but a horrible tragedy with no attributable fault. "The conduct of the federal government that led to Greg Brown's conviction was atrocious," said Mr. Fawcett. "This fire was a tragic accident, and the firefighters died heroically trying to save the lives of everyone inside that house. But there was no arson here. Mr. Brown had nothing to do with this tragedy; now he will have a fair chance of proving that in court." Pennsylvania Innocence Project Legal Director Marissa Bluestine noted that this is the first Pittsburgh case brought through to a hearing by the small independently-funded non-profit organization. It is the third grant of a new trial for clients of the Project in four months. Written by Temple Law School Posted Under : News Topics : PA Innocence Project Older Newer
