Since the early part of May, the Pitt County budget process has undergone a few major developments.
Last month, four high-ranking employees turned down 4% bonuses. At a Board of Commissioners meeting Monday night, Pitt County Sheriff Neil Elks gladly accepted a pay increase.
The sheriff was earning roughly $86,000, but with a 16% pay increase Elks' salary will be about $99,700. Elks also receives an on-call pay of $5,600, so the pay increase will put his salary at over $100,000.
"It's been a need there," said Elks. "The county restraints we've seen the last couple of years has been tough and the county being able to adjust the salaries. It's a step in the right direction."
The 2014-2015 fiscal year budget also includes an additional $273,000 for Pitt County schools.
The commissioners also approved an animal control expansion proposal known as the K-9 Control Ordinance, which passed by a vote of 8-1. The ordinance will increase the animal control budget by about $400,000.

JE148: Mother of All Battles
this wiki
On their way to Silver Town, Ash and the gang make a stop at Mt Silver to bring the Larvitar, etrusted to them by Professor Elm, back to its birthplace.
When they finally get to the pokemon preserve where Larvitar was born, it turns very happy and the gang realise that Larvitar trusts them now. Misty then has a flashback to when she first met the Larvitar and remembers that it used to harden at the slightest thing she ever said. Brock then says that the pokemon preserve should be near them but he doesn't know which side of the bridge it is on. The Larvitar suddenly jumps out of Brock's hands and runs over the bridge. The brigde is over water and the screen goes to a camera that is poking out of the water. We know that it is connected to something but we don't know what yet.
The gang have now crossed the bridge and are following Larvitar through a forest to the preserve owned by Ranger Mason. Once again the camera comes into view as it is poking above the bushes whilst following Ash and his friends. Now we know that the camera is connected to a machine. Inside there are three men and they start talking about capturing the Larvitar, Pikachu and Togepi.
Suddenly the gang hears a loud noise and a Tyranitar comes into view. Ash gets out his Pokédex and it tells him information about the Tyranitar. Ash notices a scar that is on the Tyranitar's body and the gang realise that Larvitar's mother had the same scar. Larvitar is stood still and Ash gives it a little push and tells it to go to its mother. Tyranitar then gets angry and shoots a powerful attack at Ash, Brock, Misty, Pikachu and Togepi. Brock thinks that it got angry because Tyranitar probably thought that they were the ones whole stole the egg in the first place. Tyranitar attacks again but Ash and Misty try to make it understand that they are trying to help. But Tyranitar doesn't understand and starts to chase Ash and the gang. Larvitar is also following them and its crying, Ash tried to tell it to go back to its mum but it holds onto Pikachu's tail.
The screen goes back to the three men inside the machine and they try to keep the Tyranitar in their sights. They also talk about capturing the Tyranitar too.
The screen goes back to Ash and friends being chased and Ash tries to get Larvitar to tell Tyranitar that they are its friends. But Tyranitar shoots another powerful attack that knocks them all over. Larvitar falls at its mother's feet and it starts shouting loudly. Tyranitar then understands and smiles at Larvitar.
The screen goes back to the camera and it is pointed towards Tyranitar. Then one of the three men tells the other two to fire the poké bag at the Tyranitar. They do this and Tyranitar is captured inside the poké bag and falls over. Tyranitar tries to attack the bag but there is a part of the bag over it's mouth. Then the machine comes out from the bushes and in front of Ash and the gang. The gang then remembers that these three men were the poachers that stole Larvitar's egg. The poachers do a Team Rocket style intorduction. Then reveal themselves to be the Pokémon Poacher Brothers.
The screen then shows Team Rocket's balloon in the sky. Jessie, James and Meowth have been watching the whole time. Jessie comes up with the plan that they should tell the poachers that they want to join them and then eventually steal all the pokémon they caught.
The screen goes back to the gang and the poachers are about to shoot another poké bag but this time at Larvitar. Ash tries to stop it but ends up jumping in front of Larvitar and the bag catches him instead. The poachers then hear a sound and know the the preserve rangers are coming, they grab the Tyranitar using their machine and speed off. But then Brock releases his Crobat and tells it to follow them and to report back where they've gone.
Ranger Mason and her Croconaw then comes on a motorbike and Brock jumps at the chance to talk to her. Then Misty tells Ranger Mason what has happened when she realises that they are here to bring back the Larvitar. Brock then boasts about how he told his Crobat to follow them to their hiding place. Ranger Mason then sees Ash in the bag and after a while he is out of it.
We are then shown Team Rocket trying to team up with the poachers at their hiding place. The poachers accept but Crobat is listening and then flies off to find Brock. The poachers tell Team Rocket to capture Pikachu and Larvitar and they let them use their machine with the poké bags in. The poacher boss reveals his plan to use Team Rocket as a distraction to the Pokémon Rangers for them to make their getaway with Tyranitar.
The screen goes back to Croback who has found Brock. And Ranger Mason tells Crobat to take them to the poachers hideout. On their way to the poachers hidout, they meet Team Rokcet who do their signature introduction. Team Rocket tells the others how they teamed up with the poachers. They then launch a poké bag at Pikachu, Ash then tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt and Ranger Mason tells her Croconaw to use Hydro Pump. And they force the bag to shoot towards Team Rocket. This makes them "blast off again"!
Then we see the three poacher brothers in Team Rocket's Meowth balloon, looking at Ash and the gang. One of the brothers activates the machine and it comes to life, its hands reaching out and grabbing Ash's Pikachu and Ranger Mason's Croconaw. Then the machine shoots a bag at all the gang except Larvitar who is left watching in shock. Ash then tells Larvitar that its up to itself to save its mother and he tells it to use its powers.
Larvitar then starts shouting like it did before and it makes Tyranitar open it's eyes and start to struggle to get out of the bag. It starts to shake the bag and thus ends up shaking the balloon to which it is attached to. Because of this one of the brothers presses a remote which makes a electric shock run through the bag. It is hurting Tyranitar but it seems to find some last minute energy and manages to break the bit of the bag that covered its mouth to stop it from attacking. Then it attacks the balloon and bursts it. The bag is released from the balloon and the balloon, along with the Pokémon Poacher Brothers, blast off.
One of the brothers dropped his remote though and this releases Ash and the gang from their bag and it does the same with Tyranitar's Poké bag. But then the poachers get out of Team Rocket's balloon and into their machine (that still has hold of Pikachu and Croconaw) and speed towards the gang. But Tyranitar and Larvitar both attack the machine and it explodes, Pikachu and Croconaw are flung into the air but they are both caught by Ash and Brock (although Croconaw does squash Brock when he tries to catch it).
Then we see the poachers tied up and Ranger Mason and the other rangers are thanking Ash, Misty and Brock for all that they've done. Ranger Mason then tells the gang the way to Silver Town and waves them off on their journey. Larvitar and Tyranitar also say goodbye as well because they'll be staying in the pokémon preserve.
Ash, Misty and Brock then head to Silver Town for their next adventure.

President Barack Obama's second inauguration is going to be smaller than his historic first swearing-in, but still full of glamour and pomp.
Estimates of turnout are 600,000 to 800,000, compared with a record 1.8 million in 2009.
Yet recent developments have shown enthusiasm is high. A limited offering of $60 inaugural ball tickets for the public sold out quickly, and there's an impressive list of celebrities, including Beyonce, Katy Perry and Usher, set to perform.
Obama has cut the number of balls from 10 last time to just two this year. But The Associated Press has learned that organizers are expecting 35,000 people to attend the larger ball, and 4,000 people are expected to attend a ball in honor of U.S. troops double the size of two years ago.

The Clark County clerk's office issued 1,399 marriage licenses in the four days leading up to Tuesday. That's a 28 percent increase from the same four-day period last year.
Clerk Diana Alba says the number of licenses is nowhere near what it was during the record-breaking days before July 7, 2007, when the calendar turned up lucky triple sevens.
But she says couples tend to gravitate toward dates like 11/12/13 that are easy to remember, or fall near a three-day weekend.
Unusual weddings around Sin City on Tuesday included a couple that got married on a motorcycle, and another pair that had a six-tier wedding cake made out of hamburgers.

La Casa dei Tintori Bed and Breakfast in Florence
If you are looking for clean, warm, friendly hospitality and personal service the Casa dei Tintori B&B in Florence, Italy is your answer.
Recently voted one of the top five Bed & Breakfasts in all of Florence, Casa dei Tintori is a careful and accurate restoration of a 13th Century building in the historic center of the city.
While retaining its Medieval charm, the Bed and Breakfast is equipped with all the modern amenities, including air-conditioning, heating, private bathrooms with showers, TVs and a free fast Internet computer that enables guests to keep in touch with family and friends back home.
Each of the five private guest rooms is decorated in period furniture and fabrics in patterns and colors derived from the Florentine tradition of Medieval textile dyers.
Casa dei Tintori is located in a quiet, residential and very safe neighborhood with a variety of charming shops, good restaurants, and " gelato " stores that make life worth living.
This central B&B in Florence is only a short walk from famous landmarks like the Uffizi Museum, the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens, the Ponte Vecchio which spans the Arno river, Santa Croce, Piazza della Signoria, the Duomo and many more.
If that's not enough, there are famous statues, monuments and art galleries everywhere you look.
There are, of course, high fashion stores, artisan and leather shops, open air markets and more restaurants than one can count.
The Medieval building has an interesting history. Eight centuries ago it was a dyers' house, a large wool weaving and textile dying workshop. In fact the
district originally teemed with similar craft workshops under the aegis of "Arte dei Tintori" (Art of the Dyers).

Mac help: What's the difference between Picasa & Adobe Bridge?
I hope I have this in the right forum, so bump me if it should be placed elsewhere.
I recently switched to a Mac and upgraded to PSE 8 for Mac which comes with Bridge. I used to use Picasa on my old PC and it worked great for me. This is what used to do with Picasa: I stored all my photos & digi supplies on an external drive and Picasa would just scan that drive & find all the photos & supplies and display them. I had a Photos folder broken down into year and month, and then a Digi Supply folder, which had a kit subfolder, templates subfolder, Quick Pick sub, etc. - all with the previews on front, so I just could glance at the preview to find if it had the look what I wanted, and if so, I could open the folder to view the papers, etc which could be automatically opened into PSE. Great, easy enough. I even had the kit previews sorted into albums - so I could find Halloween kits, etc. pretty easily.
Now, on my Mac, Picasa for Mac is just glitchy - no way around that - I've tried, but it isn't picking things up timely, it crashes, hangs, re-scans the entire drive, loses my album data regularly, etc - and it is common problem with Mac users from what I've read.
So, I'm now abandoning Picasa and looking for something similar. I don't really want something like iPhoto where I have to import digi supply files after I've downloaded them, and keep double copies of things. I liked how Picasa would just pick them up and show me them. Is Bridge what I want? Is there something else you might suggest for Mac users?
I dont have a Mac, but I do use Picasa the way you did on your PC.
I use it for quick fixes too, so I have never tried Adobe Bridge.
I know there are a few scrappers here with Macs, so I am hoping
they can give you some help.
(I just changed from Vista and had such issues with Picasa,
now that am on on Windows 7, I dont have troubles like I did.
Maybe Picasa works better with different versions? just a thought)
There is another program that lots of scrappers use, and at the
moment I can't think of the name. But it helps in organize digi
supplies and you can name files, put items in categories...
I'm on a Mac, but I've never used Picasa. I use Bridge all the time. Either for looking for kits, photos or whatever. If you have all your folders organized, as it seems you do, I love it for it's preview purposes. There are lots of other features for Bridge, but I use it mostly for previewing, from which you can directly open files in PS or PSE as well.
Like Darlene, I use Bridge, and it does just what I want it to do. You can have favorite folders listed along the left side so you can go there quickly, you can see all the things within the folder as you've organized them, you can easily rename files, delete them, and sort all the files differently. Also handy for seeing the EXIF info (camera data, file specs, etc.) right in Bridge without opening the file. Plus you can customize the working space in Bridge so you get all the options set up just as you want them.
You've got your organization set up, so just go to Bridge and it's easy peasy! Don't need iPhoto if you're using Elements or Photoshop.
Here are some instructional video's for pse6/mac
Under organizing photos, it will tell you how to use keywords, labeling and rating/ADDING KEYWORDS TO IMAGES w/bridge.
This is what I'm doing. I already have a file on my desktop with all my digi supplies and subfiles. I've always accessed it through bridge. But after adding keywords like the color, brads, leaves, paper-I can now go to edit>find>then under criteria I have keywords>contains>then type the color you want and click find.
So, if I'm looking for paper with the color red I'd type red>click find and it would bring up anything I have listed in that color.. So the idea when adding keyword is to put anything that you'd find that item for... Like leaves. I'd put green and leaves. Or a pink brad would of course be pink and brad.. That way I can look for anything pink which would be paper, brads, ribbons, etc or if I just want brads I'd put that to find all brads. Hope that made sense.
I find this usefull when looking for a certain item in a certain color with out going through each preview thats on my files. And its nice to look at all the items you have in one color.
{I'm hoping this works the same way for pse 8}

Ramah Looking good!! Good to see you return, hoping to see more of this kind of work, congrats
So I've been out of the game for quite a while now due to various reasons but recently I managed to recover something of my mojo. Anyhoo, here is the finished version of a map I started a long time ago and was supposed to be a quick map I worked on when I needed a break from other stuff. :S
So, this is a magical land akin to Shangri-la or Brigadoon - an island adrift on the seas and charted on no map. Time and death have no meaning on the island - should death occur the victim would return to life the next dawn and be forever tied to the island, unable to leave. It is said that the island will continue to move through the seas of time until the three remaining warring kings (a fourth was treachorously betrayed and slain, thus cursing the land) put aside their claims and unite under a single monarch.
The snatches of poem at the sides are meant to be from a longer poem that tells the tale of an expedition that ended up at the island and the problems they faced before some escaped. It is not sequential - the left side is from early in the poem and the right side is from near the end.
I hope you enjoy it though personally I sure am glad to be done with it.
Edit: As this was not a commission and was done with no aim other than producing a map I'm adding a cut down and unlabeled version for personal use. This is offered under creative commons and is for personal use only and not for commercial use.

RAMAH !!!! you are back!
glad to see that you haven't lost your touch. Nice luscious colors you have there. They really do give that idealic natural feel. Kinda at odds with a curse, but diggin' it anyway. Some curses may not feel that way until you have had too much of a good thing. I find the text of the pe=oem hard to read at times but that too just adds to the overall feel of the thing.
Just one question though, the only structure that I saw without a label is that tower located in the middle of the mountains with a green top. The lack of a label is just adding to the mystery of it all, but curiosity is forcing me to ask if that was intentional...
Very nicely done.as usual.

This map is amazing! The sea looks so alive... It's beautiful. It's great to see your work again Ramah! I cannot wait to see more from you, you are a great artist and cartographer.
Ok. I give up. Where is the fifth tower? o_O
Is it under the sea? The subtle light by the Drake ruins? It'd make it a roughly equal cross pattern anyway.
This one is definitely going into my inspiration folder. =P
You might be onto something Larb
Beautiful map, great backstory, lots of cool details.

Former-Cub Gregg Now A Jay
Can't believe the Jays forked over $2.75M for Kevin Gregg.
That's one sign Toronto's not going to win the AL East.
Gregg led the league in blown saves with the Marlins, then nearly did the same as a Cub last year, and yet, somehow managed to qualify as a Type-A free agent. Eh?
Where the deal makes sense for Toronto, however, is the club receiving compensation draft picks should Gregg choose to leave via free agency, and perhaps using Gregg as trade-bait come the July 31st trade deadline – not that I can fathom a contender wanting him.
It's not that Gregg is entirely chopped liver as a closer, he did close reasonably well for the Cubs during most of the season, but his overall inconsistency and poor pitching down the stretch makes him a backup closer at best — not the closer.
You just can't win with a full time closer like Gregg, and especially against the Yankees, Red Sox and Rays.

The consumer, loose in the blogosphere
Well, we're rolling into the weekend and I thought it might be fun to take a serious topic and provide some potentially comic relief.
The serious topic is demand side management and tiered pricing by utilities to move the needle on consumer behavior for shaving peak load to meet demand without new power generation. Specifically, Xcel Energy in Colorado, my utility and home state, won regulatory approval this week to introduce a two-tier rate system.
This was covered in yesterday's The Denver Post and the resulting comments on the article's forum were enlightening - at least in the sense that these are real people sharing their thoughts and feelings. Many of the comments underscored the smart grid mantra that consumer engagement is a critical element as Xcel and others take steps to implement new technologies, processes and, in today's example, pricing schemes.
On the "potential comic relief" I claim to offer, I'm going to try an experiment. The Denver Post's news article on this two-tiered rate appeared yesterday at 4 a.m. The comments on the accompanying forum began to roll in about 4:40 a.m. and continued to roll in as I typed the first paragraphs of this column. The "potential" part of the "comic relief" stems from the fact that I truly did not ascertain ahead of time what I'd encounter. But I trusted that, somehow, the comments and exchanges would reflect a gamut of perspectives that could offer insight and, I hoped, some laughs.
First, the setup:
From June to September - the peak air conditioning months - Xcel will charge a cheaper rate for the first 500 kilowatt hours (kWh) usage per month and a higher rate for all usage above that amount. The thinking, of course, is that folks who run their air conditioners during peak hours in summer should pay the higher cost of that more expensive electricity. Not all details are known yet, but the spread between the two rates is thought to be about three cents per kWh, according to the Colorado Office of Consumer Counsel. The Public Utilities Commission estimated that the average resident would pay about two percent more in the four summer months and five percent less in each of the remaining eight months of the year.
So, forthwith, I'm simply scrolling through the posts and quoting a few remarks here, as space allows. (I'm editing for brevity and cogency.)
4:20 a.m. "This is way better than an across-the-board increase. At least the first 500 kWh are cheapest."
6:25 a.m. "Trust me, Xcel is NOT trying to help the customer! They would NOT do this for that reason. This is one way to get more in the long run."
7:03 a.m. "Charging a tiered rate? How is this remotely constitutional? Name any other item you buy in bulk where it costs you more?!"
7:28 a.m. "Actually, providing the last, marginal peak kWhs costs a lot more than delivering base load. Therefore it makes sense to charge more for heavy users."
8:05 a.m. "Sounds eerily similar to a progressive income tax."
8:07 a.m. "In most (Colorado) houses, air conditioning isn't needed. Evaporative cooling does a great job. Foolish people who install air conditioning will pay extra for that dumb decision."
8:09 a.m. "Is this just another tax on the medical marijuana industry?"
8:13 a.m. "I will just stop paying my bill until they turn me off! More taxation without representation."
8:14 a.m. "Green Nazis strike again."
8:18 a.m. "The new rule should put a major dent in the sales of electric cars. They want everybody to purchase foreign oil and keep the terrorists supplied with cash. Wonderful!"
9:16 a.m. "(Somebody) must live in the mountains. Denver gets blazing hot in the summer. There is no way to sleep without air conditioning. Where are we supposed to get the money for a swamp cooler?"
9:28 a.m. "Many of us don't like the idea of smelling swamp water in our houses."
9:40 a.m. "A 'swamp water smell'? Sorry, I'd be getting into a war of wits with an unarmed adversary if I were to engage you."
Well, folks, might as well cap it here as the fratricide begins. By the way, this takes place in the Post's "Neighbors Community Forum" - a warm and fuzzy place.
If you really want more, check out the forum here. I'm pretty sure this group, like many public forums, is not directly representational of the public at large. So, clearly, I had some fun with it. But it occurs to me that Xcel might want to consider the "street team" concept and get in touch with their ally, the person who posted at 7:28 a.m. Because our local utility may need a hand.
Phil Carson
Intelligent Utility Daily
I expect more from this forum
I'm afraid that your column actually does the topic and the many people who wrote in to the Denver Post an injustice. It's a serious topic and those who complain about the tiered rate schedule are not all wrong, even though some may not artfully express their dissatisfaction. I agree with the sentiment that those who impose the greatest load during peak times should perhaps shoulder the greater incremental cost. But, if the average use is, as PSCo noted, 657 kWh per month, then the 500 kWh threshold seems exceedingly low. Does that imply that the average user is wasteful? What about the unfortunate person who is on an oxygen generator that by itself consumes over 300 kWh per month? Or the person who installed a ground source heat pump in the name of efficiency and is now being penalized because those systems run much more often. And, those respondents who noted that Denver water users were so successful in heeding the Water Board's call for conservation that rates had to increase because revenues fell so drastically expressed a very valid concern. So much for the argument about efficiency saving consumers money. The same could easily happen here.
From a societal standpoint, I am not convinced that average rates (what we have traditionally had) are not in the best interests of the community as a whole. After all, we're not talking about a luxury here but a necessity. And, that is why the monopolist is regulated. If you want to place a luxury tax on the commodity, then increase the threshold for the more expensive tier to something that is truly reflective of luxury use rather than necessary use. If we want to fiddle with rates to promote conservation, then TOU rates would be better than the simple two-tier rate that does not provide sufficient discrimination between uses. That would allow many of the consumers who have a valid use to at least shift it to lower cost times. We need a tool that can be applied with more precision than a sledge hammer.
A little humor...
OK, I can go with the little humor approach... it was only a little. Frankly, I am not banging on the utility so much as I am on the PUC itself (you may need to find me a new job after this one). The motivations of the investor owned utility are clear. It is the political motivation of appointed officials and the self serving advocacy of special interest groups I quarrel with which do not, in my humble opinion square with the public interest.
"I'm pretty sure this group, like many public forums, is not directly representational of the public at large."
Phil, you might be (unpleasantly) surprised.
I think there are a couple of reasons why at least a segment of the public believes "someone is out to get them", for lack of a better phrase.
First, I think there's a lot of resentment over the monopoly role of utilities. Few customers might switch away, but consumers are used to having alternatives.
Second, regulators have set expectations that customers will be "protected" from high prices.
Third, for some reason elected leaders tend to intervene in matters related to electricity more than any other good or service we buy on a regular basis. This tends to reinforce the idea that consumers are somehow entitled to inexpensive power.
Even though it's likely to make them highly unpopular, regulators need to be out in front explaining why prices are set the way they are, and in a venue other than the dry, jargon-filled hearing room.
Ha Ha Ha - it's a barrel of laughs...
You guys can laugh at all the backwater fly-over doofuses if you want... People understand what happens... yeah, it's just like the progressive income tax... Woodrow Wilson introduced our income tax of 3% and 7% (on the rich) and promised is would NEVER go over these amounts... 10 years later the top marginal rate was ov 70%...
So, you can crack a smile but we know the game... oh, and btw, what will the rate be once Cap N Tax or a straight carbon tax is implemented? hmmm?

Since the late 1990s, when large-scale artists Christo and his late wife, Jeanne-Claude, first floated their plan to suspend shimmering fabric across several miles of the Arkansas River downstream of Salida, they urged their support team to use the words "at the earliest" when discussing scheduling.
At first, the project — which will drape 5.9 miles of fabric across a 42-mile stretch of the river between Salida and Parkdale for two weeks — was planned for summer 2001 "at the earliest." Then it was 2003. Then 2008. The latest plan — which followed Bureau of Land Management approval last year — was for August 2014, "at the earliest."
Now it's August 2015.
"They've done enough of these to know things happen and things don't always happen as you've planned them," said Steve Coffin, spokesman for the Over the River project.
Citing a 28-month construction schedule crunched into 24 months following the BLM's Record of Decision in November and the public's increasing call for detailed operational plans during construction and exhibition, Christo on Tuesday decided to delay his grandiose plan for another year.
At the two final public hearings for the Over the River project earlier this month, the Fremont County Board of Commissioners fielded almost 10 hours of heated support and opposition as well as 575 letters.
On Tuesday, the three-member board decided it would not make a decision regarding the artist's request for a temporary-use permit at its next scheduled meeting Feb. 28.
"We simply feel we are not ready for a formal vote," said Commissioner Debbie Bell, noting that the board is scripting a list of conditions for the project. The board could make a final decision at its March 13 or March 27 meeting, she said.
Coffin said Christo's decision to delay reflects his desire to share yet-to-be-developed emergency-management plans that detail traffic, safety and other issues during the installation process. It also restores the 28-month construction period, which was pinched when federal approval stretched nearly three years.
"This is going to give us the 28-month schedule as well as give the public the opportunity to be better informed of the operational details," Coffin said.

'Celebrity Big Brother' returned to Channel 5 with a peak audience of 4.3 million viewers last night, beating last year's show but still smaller than the audience that watched the first series on the channel in 2011.
Among the celebrities to enter the house last night were 'The X Factor' contestant Rylan Clark, former Liverpool footballer Neil Ruddock, reality TV couple Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, and jockey Frankie Dettori.
According to unofficial figures, 'Celebrity Big Brother' was watched by an average of 3.30 million viewers between 9pm and 10pm across the standard and high-definition Channel 5.
An additional 176,300 watched the show on Channel 5 +1.
At the beginning of last night's show, Clark and Dettori had to choose which of the celebrities would join them in the luxury part of the house, and which would have to live in the grimy cellar downstairs.
The five-minute peak audience of 4.33 million viewers was achieved at 10.10pm, when Page 3 girl Lacey Banghard and former 'Coronation Street' actor Sam Robertson entered the house.
The highest share 'Celebrity Big Brother' achieved last night was at 10.45pm, when the show had 22.9% of all adults watching TV and 35% of all 16- to 35-year-olds.
The headline sponsor of the show is the bed shop Dreams and yesterday, Media Week revealed Very.co.uk had signed a click-to-buy partnership with Channel 5 around the show.
Last year's 'Celebrity Big Brother' launch had an overnight peak audience of 4.24 million viewers on 5 January 2012, while Denise Welch's victory in the final attracted an overnights peak audience of 3.8 million viewers.
Nick Bampton, commercial sales director at Channel 5, said: "'Celebrity Big Brother' has got off to a flying start and we're hoping it will retain its title as the number-one show on commercial TV in January. Peaking at a 35% share for young adults means it's a must-have for advertisers wanting to reach mass audiences."
The most-watched show during the crucial 9pm hour was home renovation programme 'DIY SOS: The Big Build' on BBC One, with an average audience of 4.49 million viewers, an 18.4% share.
Richard Desmond, Northern & Shell chairman, said when he purchased Channel 5 in 2010 that he wanted to bring 'Big Brother' to the channel. The first 'Celebrity Big Brother' in summer 2011 had an average consolidated audience of 5.57 million.

A bow must fit the individual who shoots it. Likewise, arrows must be sized for the bow. Before attempting to shoot a bow and arrow, get familiar with the bow's draw weight and draw length.
Draw weight describes the maximum amount of weight needed to pull a bow string completely back. The draw weight is measured in pounds. When purchasing a bow, be sure you can pull it back comfortably. The bow string should be pulled back in a smooth motion to full draw. If you have to struggle, the draw weight is too high and will result in poor shot placement.
Safety First! Drawing back a bow that has too much draw weight may result in pulled muscles in your chest and shoulder areas or other damage to your shoulder.
Draw length describes the distance between the bow string and the grip at full draw. Bows come in different draw lengths, the most common being 26 inches, 27 inches, 28 inches and 29 inches. When purchasing a bow, it is very important to have it properly fitted by a reputable dealer. Every bow has a label describing how the bow is set up, with the string and cable length. It is usually located on the inside of the lower limb.
Important! Drawing a bow back that does not fit your draw length may result in damage to your bow.
An anchor point is a spot that is touched by the draw hand or string when the bow is fully drawn and ready to shoot, usually a point on the archer's mouth, chin, jaw or nose.
By continuously using the same anchor point or points, the archer has a better chance of reproducing the same shot each and every time.

Vaccines have significantly reduced the threat of diseases that were once widespread and oftentimes fatal. Today, more people benefit from safe and efficacious vaccines than ever before - and the list of diseases that vaccines can help prevent continues to grow. Vaccines prevent infections from serious, life-threatening diseases and they can also help reduce health care costs to both patients and the broader health care system by reducing the incidence of vaccine-preventable illness.
The development of vaccines to prevent serious disease is an extraordinary story of medical achievement - one in which Pfizer and its 'legacy' companies have played a critical role for more than a century.
Today, Pfizer is helping to usher in a new era of vaccine innovation - both to prevent and treat disease. As the global leader in pneumococcal disease prevention, Pfizer will continue to push the boundaries of innovation to pursue the next scientific breakthrough for the prevention of pneumococcal disease. In addition, Pfizer is developing vaccines that target meningococcal serogroup B disease - which is an important cause of meningitis and bloodstream infections for which no vaccine is currently available, and a vaccine for Staphylococcus aureus - the leading cause of hospital-acquired infections.

FY16 Budget Brief
Overview of City College's financial condition for Fiscal Year 2013 as presented to the Faculty Senate on November 29, 2012.
On November 28, 2011 the Board of Trustee of the City University of New York passed a five-year plan to raise tuition at CUNY, effective Fall 2012. Under the plan, in-state, undergraduate tuition will increase by $150 per semester.
Previous tuition increases have been used to offset New York State's budget reductions. Assuming the State does not further reduce funding and honors its agreement to keep appropriations leveled, for the first time, the increased tuition revenue will go directly to the College. This revenue will provide more resources to hire full-time faculty and to support students.
Approximately 12,000 out of 16,000 City College students – 75% of students – receive financial aid, including federal, state and city assistance, and more than $5 million in privately funded scholarships. Importantly, 42% of all our students receive aid covering their full tuition, and attend tuition free; 59% of the freshmen class attend tuition free. The pdf provides details on tuition and financial aid at the College.

The Kumbh Mela has been called the world's largest act of faith and the greatest show on earth.
Millions of pilgrims, sadhus and saints, politicians, and tourists arrive on foot, in private jets and helicopters, by taxi, horses, cars, and bikes to the largest gathering on the planet.
Pilgrims believe that bathing in the river will cleanse them of their sins. Many shave their heads, so there are thousands of barbers to help them for a few rupees.
While visiting India, Mark Twain remarked that, "Pilgrims plodded for months in heat to get here, worn, poor and hungry, but sustained by unwavering faith."
I will be leading an expedition to the Kumbh Mela Festival from March 4 – 16, 2009. The main attraction of this workshop and expedition is the Kumbh Mela festival. We will be focusing on the images that participants take every day and I will help participants to put together a Mela portfolio. Over the course of the days in Haridwar we will witness the auspicious bathing day where people will travel from all over India via trains, buses and road to bathe in the Ganges. This trip is almost sold out. For information please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Mela will be filled with all sorts of interesting characters: Sadhus, naked Babas who use the sky as their garment, animated beggars, street performers, people from every caste and sub caste of India. Old and young people all attend, and some very old people attend who are hoping to die while they attend the Mela so they can be cremated right there on the Ganges.


text: The Hundredfold Peace Stipend2013-14 One full-time UAH student will receive tuition and living expenses (not to exceed $1500 and not to include transatlantic travel) for immersion German language study at the Institute for Intercultural Communication in Düsseldorf, Germany (http://www.iik-duesseldorf.de/english/). The winning candidate may be a major in any field in any college at UAH. The recipient should have completed FL102-G prior to arrival in Düsseldorf in summer 2014, and should be enrolled in a UAH German course in fall 2014 so other students can benefit from your Düsseldorf experience. Candidates for the award should submit the following to the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts by December 2, 2013 at 5:00pm: ◦ your name, college and department, mailing address, e-mail address, phone numbers and A-number at the top of your personal statement (see next item); ◦ a personal statement describing prior altruistic activities and future goals, and how this summer program emerges naturally from the former and would contribute to the latter (three pages maximum); ◦ letters of recommendation from two UAH faculty members, of whom one should be in Foreign Languages; ◦ a handwritten, signed note (a) naming the German course you expect to take in fall 2014, (b) granting permission for your name to be published in all honor assembly and publicity formats announcing the winner, if selected, and committing to do the following: (c) a bulletin board presentation of your experience, (d) visit classes, and (e) turn in two hard copies, and one electronic copy, of a one-to-two page description of your experience for showing to past and potential donors, and potential applicants in a future year.Your Düsseldorf experience may not be construed as part of accredited coursework in any field other than German. However, if you have some personal project in another field on which you would like the feedback of a specialist in Düsseldorf, we will try to find you a specialist in this other field for the excitement of noncredit learning.In addition to having a generally strong record, the winning candidate will be the one who seems most likely to help make the world a safer and healthier place. If no application received by December 2 is sufficiently strong, no award will be given in that particular year. The stipend is open to students of any, or of no particular, faith. It is based on a parable inMatthew 13:8: Some seed fell on good soil where it bore fruit a hundredfold.

Tallahassee police chief Walt McNeil spent the day on Capitol Hill.
He and other law enforcement executives from across the country met with senators and representatives to drive home their concerns.
One of those is homeland security. The International Association of Chiefs of Police says it strongly supports the fight against terrorism. But it believes local agencies should be a big part of that fight--getting anti-terrorism training and funding.
The group also opposes any weakening of concealed weapons laws.

"Well it's not a question of wanting to be a mouse... it just sort of happens to you. All of a sudden you realize... that's what you want to be."
Furryism is a condition in which a furry person (members of the furry fandom are known as furry fans, furries, or furs) self-identifies as a member of an animal species. Furryism often manifests itself as an agonizing dysphoria toward one's birth species. If untreated, it can sometimes lead to fursuiting, which will often begin in local zoos, where potential furry suitors for courting abound.
Furryism is contracted at childhood. If your child comes in contact with a costume character or mascot, plays with a stuffed animal, or watches a movie or television show with talking animals he or she will inevitably become a furry. There is no full cure, but some are led to believe that Hentai can halt the effects of Furryism, although if used too much this will cause the afflicted child to become Wapanese.
As of 1981 furries are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act and hunting them for their pelts is no longer legal in the Lower 48 States of the United States.
Popular Fursonas
Typical furry personas or "fursonas" include leeches, toucans, velociraptors, maggots, daddy-long-legses and gibbons. Some fictional animals are popular fursonas too, such as the double-hawk, Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal and that face grabbing thing from Aliens.
Furries are also known to use "cross-breed" fursonas, such as the pengui-aardvark or batsquid.
Dedicated furries devote considerable time to their animalistic smell ("yiff") as well as their costumes ("fursuits"). The inability of the skin to breath in fursuits often adds to the furry's distinctive yiff considerably, and certain furries (such as those who use a skunk fursona) may be very yiffy indeed.Be careful while invading furry territory as most attack from the rear. Or just the disgusting rendition of gang banging foxes picture-style. But be careful some have experimented with their own genetics causing the fur suit to become a part of their bodies (see starfox) and that yiff may just be their natural musk!
The great fur war
Some time in the 1990's a great war broke out between two types of these nerds. First the type that likes the porn and the type that just creep me out without remorse. This war was known as The great fur war. This war started because a few of these yiff-loving people (lets call them P1 for now!) got the power through their fur suits to get women to take any thing they wanted to do to them. This pissed of the ones who hate that yiff thing (lets call these P2) and led to a massive attack from P2 to P1. Enraged P1 said some thing along the lines of "Oh yeah!" or they just watched their copy of A Night At The Roxbury and decided it would be a good idea to counter attack. This war took place between 1992 and 1999.
The Battle begin at Bristol, right outside Obtuse's house. P1, which their marching band, the infamous Slavar Weasels, played their amazingly blaring song called "Of Weasel Slaves and Naked Hamsters" also known to the common people as, "What the hell-?". Enraged, the P2 army quickly deployed their elite stormtroopers regiment, "The Bigots of Bristol" to stop the furries from spreading their propaganda and corrupting the mind of the innocent *sic* Bristol youth. 400 furries, 3000 jews, 50 confused scots and Obtuse's front lawn was massacred. This war became the rallying cry of the world-wide furrydom.
Results of the war.
- The 1940s were completely destroyed.
- Racist feelings between P1 and P2 still continue.
- Neither side has disarmed!
- waffles?
- Baby Jesus was resurrected, consequently leading to the creation of the movie "300"

Film Stars and Superheroes
About 70% of furries gain super powers from their fursuits, such as the ability to watch Hentai without vomiting, and the ability to read furry-comics without laughing. Super-furries include Batman (bat), Spiderman (spider), Catwoman (cat) and Superman (also cat)[1].
Han-Solo's best buddy Chewbacca is also a dedicated furry, rarely seen outside of his fursuit.
Those who don't become super-heroes often gain employment as Baseball mascots, genetics engineers, Professional loser, theme-park entertainers, or handing out free samples outside stores.
Furry Organizations
The most notorious Furry organization is PETA (well known for their slogan "We'd rather do it fursuited than wear nothing"), whose exhibitionist members often show off their bizarre perversion in public.
Many believe that the furry community may also have a deep-seated allegiance with such hotels as the The Red Roof Inn and Bestwestern, as these fine lodgings are where they hold many of their Fur Conventions, or, "Cons." Or maybe they're just attracted to perpetually hot meth towns, who knows.
Furries in religion
God hates furries! The eleventh comandment is most commonly translated as "Thou shalt not be a Furry." Do to religious controversy of furries the United States has considered passing an amendment banning marriage between furries.
However, Jesus may have been a furry because he identified himself with the lamb. Some people believe that this is why he was sent to die on the big T.

Grand Opening: Riverside Dr. Bike Lanes

New Bike Lanes Calm Traffic On Riverside Drive
East End's Community-Driven Project Makes Street Safer For All
East End residents now have a safer, more vibrant neighborhood thanks to a community-driven project to calm traffic on Riverside Drive.
Cincinnati city officials joined neighborhood leaders Tuesday evening to officially open new bicycle lanes going eastbound and westbound along Riverside Drive through the East End.
The bike lanes complete the bicycle-friendly connection between The Banks in Downtown Cincinnati and the Lunken Trail at Lunken Airport, which then connects to Magrish Nature Preserve in the Cincinnati neighborhood of California.
The Riverside Drive bicycle lane project began in 2010 at the request of the East End Area Council and regional advocacy organization Queen City Bike. After a 12-month public participation process, the community voted to support bicycle lanes on Riverside to slow down speeding cars and encourage people to use bicycles for transportation and recreation.
"The big picture is that this is part of the neighborhood's vision. The East End community gets it -- streets are the public living rooms of our neighborhoods. In addition to creating an amenity for cyclists and the neighborhood, the bike lanes support our work to build complete streets to make all Cincinnati neighborhoods destinations, instead of raceways," said Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, a longtime bicyclist.
"What we're doing along Riverside Drive is making the East End a healthier, happier place to live," said East End Area Council Liaison Laurie Keleher. "It's important to this community that our streets are usable by all people – drivers, bicyclists and walkers alike."
The first half of the bicycle lanes were installed in 2012 (between St. Andrews Street and Congress Avenue). The second half of the bicycle lanes (from Bains Street to St. Andrews Street) were installed in late August of this year. The project was delayed twice due to utility work requiring construction within the street.
About The Bicycle Transportation Program
The mission of the City of Cincinnati Bicycle Transportation Program is to make bicycling an integral part of daily life in Cincinnati, so that persons of all ages and abilities utilize bicycles for all types of trips. We work toward this goal by planning, engineering, and implementing bicycle facilities, and by educating the community about bicycle transportation.
