Dispute over power lines clouds bayfront plans
Chula Vista and Port of San Diego officials are well on the way to realizing their Bayfront Master Plan dream, but that picture might be darkened by some large transmission lines that won't go away.
The plan has depended since 2004 on relocating the South Bay Substation, which sits alongside the recently imploded South Bay Power Plant, to a site about a quarter mile south.
The removal would make room for an RV resort to be moved from its spot near the Chula Vista Marina so the bayfront community's anchor project, a resort conference center, can be built in its place.
But the relocation project, long a forgone conclusion for Chula Vista, the Port of San Diego and San Diego Gas & Electric, in its current form before the California Public Utilities Commission doesn't quite meet the expectations of some. The mayor who originally negotiated for it and a nearby landowner are worried that the plan will compromise the future bayfront community.
John Moot, an attorney representing Inland Industries, says the plan fails to put underground all the transmission lines. He cites a 2004 deal between SDG&E and the city that acknowledged Chula Vista's goal of maintaining the bayfront area as an underground utility district, from about C Street to Naples Street. SDG&E agreed to work with the city to underground large 138 and 230 kilovolt transmission lines and to file for any future transmission lines in that area to be undergrounded.
The problem, Moot says, is that SDG&E does not plan to put all the existing lines underground when the substation is moved. Furthermore, the plan includes an 83-foot telecommunications tower and 68-foot A-frame towers, both of which violate the 45-foot height limit in the city's state-approved Local Coastal Plan.
"This is a matter of broken promises," Moot said. "SDG&E's promise to Chula Vista that it would maintain the bayfront as an underground district and the city's promise to its residents that what would be built on the new bayfront would be better so that all of us would be proud of our jewel on the bay.
"If this substation is built as proposed, it will be called a lot of things over the next 50 years, but a jewel will not be one of them."
SDG&E has a different take, though: Because the lines to the new substation will be the same lines, only looped in to a different location, they don't need to be put underground. Even so, the utility company says it is already making considerable concessions to help make Chula Vista's bayfront dream a reality.
The project would put the remaining 138 kilovolt transmission lines underground, as outlined in the deal, and it puts all but 300 feet of a 230 kilovolt line below ground. All told, the plans for the new substation reduce the total number of overhead poles, towers and risers by 14. They also reduce the amount of overhead 230 kilovolt and 138 kilovolt lines by a combined 4,300 feet.
"There are no new lines," said SDG&E project manager Mary Turley. "The existing site is full of lines, and this project would underground a bunch of what's already down there."
"I don't know where we've done more undergrounding," said Francisco Urtasun, regional vice president of external relations. "We would not even be moving the substation if it weren't for the Chula Vista bayfront plan. We consider ourselves partners with the city in this venture, and we have invested considerable time and expense in it."
Chula Vista Assistant City Manager Gary Halbert said getting the substation moved is the "absolute most important thing to us" and that the city is working with SDG&E to interpret and apply the agreement and the city's Local Coastal Plan to the current project. But he doesn't want to push so hard for undergrounding the lines that the substation doesn't get moved. Urtasun predicted that adding any expense to the project could jeopardize its approval by the utilities commission.

Here's some footage of Marat Safin and his latest love, Russian pop singer and fashion flabbergaster Nastya Osipova.
It looks like the pair are attending a movie screening and shows the couple getting all huggy and kissy and stuff.
Fine - she's not as horrid as she looked in those pictures but she's moving in on Pamela Anderson/porn star territory with the bleached white blonde hair. I guess it all makes sense now.

Considering the hundreds of thousands of internally displaced persons (IDPs) that have fled the ongoing hostilities in Chechnya, I want to express my deep concern about the level of human suffering that continues in that region. I want to also urge the Russian Federation to preclude additional forcible returns of IDPs to an area of the country where they would feel unsafe and insecure. The unstable security situation in Chechnya is well known, and there are continuing reports of attacks and kidnappings of civilians resulting from military operations and raids. The recent explosion in Znamenskoe, Chechnya demonstrates that rebels continue to indiscriminately target civilians and Russian armed forces. In view of this destruction and disorder, it is troubling that government authorities appear bent on closing tent camps and returning nearly 20,000 IDPs to a dangerous and volatile Chechnya. Accordingly, I urge the Government of Russia to discontinue efforts to forcibly return IDPs to Chechnya and to allow non-government organizations to provide aid and shelter to IDPs in and around Chechnya.
Last summer, as part of a broader effort to demonstrate the normalizing of Chechnya, Russian officials began pressuring IDPs to return. When such pressure did not result in the desired numbers of returns, authorities began dismantling camps and facilities. In June 2002, two camps, housing some 2,200 refugees, were closed in the village of Znamenskoye in northern Chechnya. Later, in December 2002, authorities closed the Aki-Yurt camp in nearby Ingushetia, which housed some 1,700 displaced Chechens, leaving its residents with no other viable alternative other than to return to Chechnya. While some resisted and found other places to stay in Ingushetia, several thousands did relocate into Temporary Accommodation Centers in Grozny. However, most reports indicated that government promises of adequate housing and better support did not come through. The now defunct OSCE Assistant Group reported that the Centers were characterized by "overcrowding, not enough beds, no sewers working, no medicine and inadequate medical services." Perhaps such honest assessments explain why Moscow terminated the Assistance Group's presence in Chechnya at the end of 2002.
I would mention also that ten Members of the Helsinki Commission wrote to President Putin last September urging him to insure that internally displaced persons seeking refuge in Ingushetia and elsewhere in the Russian Federation, not be forcibly returned to any location. Unfortunately, we have yet to receive a response.
With another summer approaching, it is my fear that the unhappy fate of Aki-Yurt camp IDPs awaits thousands of others in Ingushetia and other neighboring provinces. In December 2002, the chair of Russia's human rights commission cited President Vladimir Putin's pledge that Chechen refugees would not be forced to return to the region against their will. Accordingly, Russia should end all plans to return individuals to Chechnya against their wishes and allow the further construction and use of shelters in Ingushetia by such groups as Doctors without Borders.
I hope that we will soon be hearing back from President Putin, and to learn that the forcible returns will be altogether discontinued henceforth.

Welcome Dan. Do a search there is a ton of info on this same subject. Good luck on your hunt.
Greetings from Louisiana.
I am new to the forum and have found if very useful thus far.
I want to hunt Wyoming this year (rifle). I have no points. I don't really care about trophy quality, just looking for a fun hunt. That being said I would prefer a buck tag over doe tags.
Are there any decent units that have a good bit of public ground that I stand a chance of being succesful in a draw with no points? If not, what is my next best option - can I wait for leftover tags in a decent unit?
It's all really confusing to me. I'd like to give it a shot but could you some advice from some of you veterans.
Welcome Dan. Do a search there is a ton of info on this same subject. Good luck on your hunt.
I am in the same boat as you Dan, zero points and the grand idea to try something new and hunt Wyoming Antelope. I have spent the last month searching the web and running through the "plan your hunt" tabs of the Wyoming Game and Fish site on a nightly basis. Clicking on "hunt area's" , "Draw odd's" , going through past unit draw odds, success rates, public land percentages and ease of access deemed yes or no by the Wyoming G&F all to figure out Choice 1, 2 and 3 on the application form. Pretty confusing for sure but reading many of the stories that the internet search engine brings up from first time Wyoming antelope hunters who wrote about their hunts from last year to two or even three years back all pieced together with what you can find on sites like this and the Wyoming G&F site you will figure it out. You can also find phone numbers on the Wyoming G&F site to call and talk to them direct, I have done that myself 3 or 4 times already. I think I have a good plan set up now and am just waiting for the application date to get a little closer before I fill it out and send in my monies. As much as I would like to answer your question; it would be extremely difficult to answer your question for you as there are so many variables. Once you get your research going the easier it all gets and if you run into a specific question about an aspect of the draw or a specific unit that you have your eye on write that question up and I am sure you will get some replies. Earlier this evening I asked a specific question about 4 units I had my eye on in a pm to one member here and he gave me some insight that was the key to figuring out what I needed to finally feel confident that the final three choices on my and my sons applications are the best for my situation and expectations. Kevin.
That was me last year. I did lots of reasearch that helped prepare me for my first trip out west. The most valuable things I learned
1. Have a gps with ownership card to you know where you are. This was critical because you will most likely be hunting small tracts of public land surrounded by private property that has no sings and fences that are not neccessarily along property lines.
2. If you are in an area that is easy to draw or has leftover tags most of the animals you see are likely in places you can't hunt.
3. Buy a preference point so your second trip will be even better when you have an idea of what to expect.
4. Wyoming web site is a great tool that will answer many questions, but nothing trumps first hand experience.
What he said......
Kentucky hunter said it very well.
If you are willing to pay for a special license, you can get a decent unit. If I were you and wasn't willing to pay for the special license, I would just apply in a decent unit where you will have a decent chance of drawing a regular priced license in the random draw and hope you draw. Then if you don't, get your point and go there next year.
I think I would be willing to pay for a special license as long as I could draw a decent area.
Kentucky hunter, what kind of GPS do you have and how did you get an ownership card for it?
Kevin W, where do you find the public/private land percentages of the WY Fish and Wildlife site?
pm sent danred
Danred, when I have some more time I'll send you a pm. We hunted a second choice unit last year and had a good hunt.
Anybody ever download the Cabelas recon hunt app and buy their public land map info for like $10? I have to assume it isn't that great but will probably download it just to try.
Most of us use huntinggpsmap.com land ownership chips.
Try and read a lot of the past threads on this issue. Wyoming antelope comes up a lot on here....

2008 4.6L SOHV Ford Racing Performance Parts Engine Install - The Bumpside Build-OnWritten by on September 1, 2009 It Runs!
What a long strange trip it has been indeed! Something happened this month that seemed far fetched some time ago--the Bumpside ran. I know, I can't believe it either. It was by no accident and required a fair amount of hard work and head scratching. You know by now that the late-model 4.6L 3-valve Ford engine in the '68 is a first and actually forced Ford Racing to make a harness to bring life to the all-aluminum V-8.
It has now worked out well for all parties involved and actually got Ford Racing more involved with what the aftermarket needs to keep a Ford-in-a-Ford--a state-of-the-art Ford at that! Carburetors aren't going away any time soon, but electronic fuel injection is here to stay--because it works really well. These new fangled computer companies/engineers today have made it possible to design superior engines that require equally superior means of controlling them to make the optimal power and be the most efficient they can be. I know these robot-like powerplants don't have the same soul that an old pushrod or even L-head engine might, but for a daily or regularly driven truck, you can't beat 'em!
We introduced Ford Racing's standalone engine harness for the '05-10 4.6/5.4L 3-valve engines that was conceived with here in the pages of CLASSIC TRUCKS last month and now we'll show you how to cut it all up. Yep, that's right--cut it up. I didn't do this on my own, however--I had adult supervision in the form of two Ford Racing employees. Actually, I just watched. Steve Bandy is the electrical engineer at Ford Racing in Detroit, and he and the face of Ford Racing on TV, Jesse Kershaw, flew out to sunny Southern California to get a firsthand look at the '68 F-100 and what had to be done to fire the engine.
We (or at least I) knew we wouldn't be driving it yet, as I still have a bunch of stuff to finish on it, but I knew the fuel system could be operational and there was power plumbed in the truck, so we proceeded to prep it sans a cooling system and some accessories for simplicity's sake. The goal was to make sure the engine would start and run on its own with the new harness.
But none of us could leave well enough alone, and once Steve was out here and had observed the scope of a vintage project, we all agreed on some changes to the appearance of the harness. Steve and Jesse cut open the brand-new stock harness and began looking for more length to get the harness off the passenger side valve cover and keep it behind the engine for a more sleek, stealthy appearance. Once the length was found, Jesse took it a step further, and with a few modifications to the intake, almost completely hid the bulk of the engine harness on a spare engine we had at the shop. This was cool and I proceeded to do it to my engine afterward.
It was a busy couple of days with the guys, but with two and a half years of emails, phone calls, and meetings that led up to this point--and it was a success. Whew. Now, take advantage of all our hard work!

Steve and Jesse got to work checking out the harness install on the '68. They said it was good to see things outside of their shop back in Detroit and to do so away from calls and emails to shed new light on how to improve the initial product for the aftermarket.If you recall from last month, this is how the harness hung on the engine leading to the power control module (PCM) and power distribution box (PDB). In a stock Mustang this would actually lead toward the front of the head and mount to the front of the inner fender panel. But most people with an older vehicle would want to mount the PCM/PDB to the back of the firewall or under the dash.Steve started cutting open a spare harness we had there--a brave man in my book! What he found was that lengthening only three wires netted another 6 inches or so of rearward movement.With the three wires cut and the harness spread out we get a better idea of what he's doing. This will hopefully get the bulk of the harness totally behind the engine, which would look much better.Steve was pretty confident about the surgery on the spare harness, so he started in on the one in the '08 4.6L crate engine in the F-100. The procedure did just what he hoped it would and got the big bundle off the valve cover and kept it to the rear of the engine, now it would have to be wrapped up again, which is my job.I'm planning on building a center console in the truck for the shifter and some storage, which will most likely house the PCM and PDB since the dash in these trucks is very short and shallow and I still need to squeeze the A/C in there somewhere.While Steve and Jesse were messing around with what they know best, I was scrambling to get the fuel system totally operational and leak free. After putting some gas in the tank and Steve hooking up the necessary yet temporary powers and grounds, we had fuel pressure and finally the truck came to life! I almost couldn't believe it, not for lack in faith of them or the engine, but because it's been so long. The 4.6L engine sounded pretty mean, if I do say so myself.Ford Racing has had different versions of the ProCal tool over the years for different engines, but this baby is the new one for the 4.6/5.4L modular engines. It has a card in it with a tuning program for the engine and is also a diagnostic tool and will give error codes. No laptops necessary, but if you upgrade the engine Ford will send a new card for your tuning and the ProCal simply hooks to the OBD-II port in the harness.
I yanked out the engine again after all the mods had been done and started to tidy and wrap it up again. Here's what's left over from Steve's surgery, it looks worse than it is.I was gonna give Jesse's idea a shot amongst all this, so off came the injector and coil connections and the coil packs. Remember, all the hardware on these engines is metric.With a 1-inch hole saw I started burrowing into the composite intake between the runners. Of course I checked what was behind each spot beforehand.The hole in the middle has to be up a little higher because there is an intake-to-head bolt behind the plastic. Of course centering the holes side to side helps the end result look better.There are throttle-like butterflies between the intake and ports in the heads that help mix the air and fuel better. This servo/controller for them needs to be unbolted from the back of the intake to get your hands into the valley.The bundle of exposed wires cleaned up well once back in the loom. I tried to make sure I had the maximum length of wire out for the injector and coil connectors so they would reach through the intake. Now it was time to stuff the intake like a wiring turkey!Ta-da! It worked well in the end, but I did have to mess with it for a while to get enough slack in everything, but having big mitts like mine doesn't help. The injector connectors just barley squeeze through the 1-inch holes. What a dramatic difference this made in the way the engine looks.Now it was time for the other side. While the loom wasn't as big on this side to start out, it still is enough to clutter the area.
It was a tight squeeze getting all the other connectors out the front of the intake between the thermostat housing. It'd be easier if the housing was removed, but I was being lazy.I was hoping to not even have to open the loom on this side, but there needed to be more slack in the injector and coil pack wires. These wires were taped down to the rest of the wires and once they were pulled back and wrapped up, there was enough slack.Again, great results. The connectors for the front injector and coil actually came out in front of the intake on this side. All in all it took me about four hours to do the rerouting, and I'm glad I did. Pay no mind to the lifting brackets on the engine--they'll come off once it's back in the truck.The other result of all this is that the harness is completely behind the engine. I carefully tucked the extra lengths of the harness into the valley, but you must make sure the linkage for the throttle plates doesn't interfere or rub on any of the harness. You can see how this puts the PCM and PDB in the area of the firewall and dashboard.

Vintage Air's Front Runner Serpentine System - Front & CenterWritten by on March 5, 2012 Installing Vintage Air's Front Runner Serpentine System
Wow, it's not often I get a chance to spend time out in the garage enough for updates in two consecutive issues. Last month I was able to piece together and install the exhaust system on the '57 and this time I was able to install my new Vintage Air Front Runner Serpentine Drive System. Heck, if I keep going like this I may even finish the truck before retirement.
I've been using Vintage Air products for at least 15 years now, and each and every time I do I'm still impressed with how well-made they are and how easily they go together. Now, don't think I'm pullin' your leg or trying for brownie points with an advertiser—I'm serious when I say that if Vintage Air says something fits, it fits … Whether it's an air conditioning kit or an accessory drive system, there's no tweaking or modifying their components, just follow the instructions and enjoy the result—that's my honest personal experience. Aside from just plain making good stuff, Vintage Air supplies some of the best instruction sheets in the industry too, and I'm convinced that's one of the main reasons their stuff goes together as easy and works as well as they do. The install you see here without exaggeration took less than an hour. And I know it went that quickly cuz I didn't have to hang over the front sheetmetal, but even if I had it wouldn't have taken much more time than it did. So follow along and see how straightforward this chore is and just how good the system looks as well! CT

With the engine and trans in place and the new exhaust system configured and installed as well, the next item on the agenda was the accessory drive system. The install will go a bit easier in my case since the pickup's front sheetmetal has yet to be installed, saving me a bunch of bending and stretching. The first steps upon unpacking my new Front Runner system were matching all the components to the parts list in the instruction sheets, and giving the instructions a complete read through before starting the install.Since the SBC in the '57 is a fresh GM crate engine getting started was simple, I just began by removing the stock water pump so it can be replaced with the Stewart aluminum pump that is part of the Front Runner system. Speaking of the Stewart pump, it's important to note that it is designed without an internal bypass. This means you've either got to use a Stewart High Performance thermostat or drill three 3⁄16-inch bypass holes in the existing thermostat.As I mentioned earlier, Vintage Air supplies top-quality stainless hardware as part of the system. This means anti-seize compound must be used on all threads to prevent galling caused by dissimilar metals reacting to each other. It's also recommended to match all hardware to the supplied list so you don't get to any point and find out you're missing a key piece of hardware.With the stock water pump removed and the hardware double checked to make sure everything I needed was there I located the four pump mounting studs. The studs thread into the block course end first. Remember to apply a small bead of silicone sealer to the block sides of the studs before installing 'em. The studs go in so each protrudes 45⁄8-inches from the face of the block.Once the new Stewart pump was dry enough to handle (I'd painted it Chevy Orange to match the rest of the engine) I slid it onto the mounting studs. It was at this point that I ran into the only minor hiccup in the whole install. The factory timing-cover bolts holding the cast cover to the 383 block have a rather tall hex head. One bolt head was tall enough that it touched the pump before it was even mated to the block (look close at the center of the image and you'll see the offending bolt).To get around the problem I removed the bolt hoping I could just replace it with a like thread and diameter bolt from my own supply. Once I looked at it though I realized that the factory cover bolts are unique in that they have a rather long shoulder and standard hardware would not work. To get around the problem I went ahead and trimmed a bit off the head of the bolt leaving enough that it could still be tightened by a wrench but removing enough that it no longer hit the new pump housing.After resolving the bolt problem I then went ahead and attached the water pump pulley using the stainless 12-point bolts next.After sliding the spacer onto the studs I realized that even though I'd read the instructions I still neglected to install the heater hose fitting before mounting the pump. I slid the pump back off and installed the fitting making sure to use a bit of thread sealer to prevent any future coolant leaks.
This side view of the engine and pump bracket shows how the stand offs hold the bracket out away from the lower block so the lower part of the bracket is perpendicular to the upper mounting area (at the lower left hand water pump mounting stud). The power steering bracket is then held at the bottom via a pair of 3⁄8-16x2 1/2-inch 12-point bolts.Next I readied the air conditioning compressor for installation on the Front Runner main bracket by installing the A/C line fittings onto the compressor. It's important that you keep the ports sealed with caps of some sort until you're ready to complete the A/C circuit.With the compressor and alternator pulley down I then began attaching them both to the main bracket. The compressor is mounted to the bracket using two (provided) spacers—one between the main bracket and the compressors upper rear mounting ear and one between the bracket and the compressor lower rear mounting ear. With the spacers in place the compressor is bolted to the bracket using two 5⁄16-18x4 1/2-inch 12-point stainless bolts, washers, and 5⁄16-inch Nyloc nuts (Note: the compressor is fitted with press-fit bushings in the rear mounting ears. The compressor will fit a bit loosely until the bolts are tightened.). The alternator uses one spacer and one 8mm 12-point bolt and washer at the top mounting ear.Next, the Front Runner main bracket, pump, and alternator assembly is mounted to the engine. Slide the assembly over the water pump mounting studs and then secure the left (drivers) side of the assembly using two 38-24 12-point nuts and washers. Next, secure the lower alternator to the power steering bracket using a 3⁄8-24x4-inch 12-point bolt, washer, and 3⁄8-24 Nyloc nut. As a reminder—don't forget to use the anti-seize on all threads, you'll be sorry if you don't.The belt tensioner bracket is the next item on the agenda. First you need to install the supplied dowel pin in the locating hole of the tensioner bracket as shown. The dowel pin is a press fit so I used a small hammer (that my Pop made in high school metal shop by the way) to carefully tap the pin into the locating hole.The tensioner bracket is slid onto the two passenger (right hand) side water pump studs and is held in place with two 3⁄8-24 12-point nuts and washers.The lower two mounting holes are then fitted with the two tensioner bracket stand-off spacers and secured to the engine block with two 3⁄8-16x4 3/4-inch bolts and washers.Next, I grabbed the tensioner (which I'd painted Chevy Orange earlier) and fitted the machined aluminum spacer to its backside, and install the tensioner with spacer through the tensioner bracket (note: see the instruction sheet in regard to which spacer hole is used to accept the dowel pin that had been fitted to the tensioner bracket earlier). Next, secure the tensioner/spacer assembly to the bracket using the supplied bolt, washer, and Nyloc nut.
After installing the tensioner it was on to the crank pulley. The pulley is installed in the same manner as any conventional V-belt pulley—remember that anti-seize!The power steering pump assembly comes next. The pump is held to its bracket using two 5⁄16-24x3-inch 12-point bolts and washers.Next, I used a pulley installation tool to attach the pulley to the new pump. It's very important to use the proper tool to install the pulley. Note, attempting to hammer or press on the pulley will more than likely destroy the pump—always use the correct tool for the job (K-D Tool PN 2897 or equivalent).With the power steering pump mounted and all the assembly hardware tightened and double checked the job is just about complete. I'm happy I chose to go with the black powder coated version of the Front Runner. It goes well with the OEM-style, traditional look I was going for.The final step was to install the belt. Insert a 1/2-inch drive ratchet into the square socket in the tensioner and rotate it clockwise until it stops. Route the belt around the crank pulley, power steering pulley, alternator pulley, and over the compressor pulley. Then pull the belt downward and slide it under the water pump pulley last, and then release the pressure on the ratchet and tensioner and you're done. And that's it. Installing Vintage Air's Front Runner is an easy and rewarding chore. The system looks great and works even better! Stay tuned for the next look at project '57—I'll try and get crackin' and get another step in the build done as soon as possible.

Nowhere does drug development get more personal than in the world of orphan diseases. Some 7,000 rare conditions have been designated by FDA as "orphans"—they have not been "adopted" by pharma because the patient population is too small (200,000 or less) and the R&D investment too big to be sufficiently profitable. As many as 80 percent are hereditary childhood conditions. Our much-touted free market leaves the 25 million Americans who suffer from these diseases out of luck.
Yet the imperative to literally save their child's life has transformed thousands of parents into activists, even if their strategy and style are far more accommodating than the militant, media-savvy demonstrations of their AIDS activist forbearers. From the Abetalipoproteinemia Collaboration Foundation to the Zellweger Baby Support Network, desperate parents like Ron and Raychel Bartek who refuse to take no for an answer have mobilized to put a rare disease on the map. And with the advent of venture philanthropy, a growing number are investing their hard-won charitable dollars in the discovery and development of drugs.Now, 12 years after founding the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA), the Barteks keep a watchful eye on the progress of 17 experimental FA drugs, including six in clinical trials—a somewhat improvisational pipeline that owes its existence mainly to FARA's own initiative. "Now we can tell a newly diagnosed patient, 'You can get on the registry and be eligible for the first drug in trials,'" he says. (In photo below, Ron and Keith are at Ride Ataxia Philadelphia in October 2009.)

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - More fallout tonight from the D.C. fire chief's plan to pull all the advanced medic units off the graveyard shift. Firefighters say the move could cost lives.
The proposal is to pull all the advanced life support, all the paramedic units, off the street between 1 and 7 in the morning.
The fire chief says there are far fewer calls during those hours.
But firefighters say it's that one call, that one heart attack, that one baby having trouble breathing, that they're worried about.
Now there would still be paramedics on the fire trucks.
And there would still be basic life support or EMT units on the street.
The civilian paramedic union thinks that might be ok.
But the union that represents firefighter paramedics thinks there are all kinds of scenarios where that would be a terrible idea.
Fire officials say they get a total of 40 to 60 medic calls between one and seven in the morning citywide.
That's far fewer than they get during the rest of the day.
And the chief says changing the shifts for those medic units will mean there are far more on the street available when they are really needed.
But the city council has to review this.
And the chief says if it doesn't work, he will change it.

The Ada Mae, the 62-foot skipjack home-ported in New Bern, arrived promptly at 2 p.m. at the Galley Store dock loaded with Christmas trees.
Her cargo was 43 Fraser firs from West Jefferson in Western North Carolina, the same area that produced the White House Christmas tree this holiday season.
Ben Bunn, the captain of the Ada Mae, which is a Carolina Coastal Classroom, is also the president and CEO of the non-profit classroom that teaches math and science. He said the arrival marked the seventh year if the annual fundraiser.
Board member Ken McCotter greeted the boat and watched as the trees were unloaded. He said it was always nice to see the trees arrive.
Bunn said many of the trees have been preordered and there is still some for sale. They will be set up near the Galley Store. �They go fast,� he said of the trees.
Workers will be at the site setting up the trees.
The Ada Mae was built in 1915 in Rose Bay and is the only surviving working sailing vessel built in North Carolina. According to its website, the students receive shipboard skills using math, science, ecology, social studies, reading writing, computer science and critical thinking.
Some 2,000 to 3,000 students participate annually.

In retirement, with the antagonisms of the political battlefield largely behind them, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson engaged in a prolonged correspondence. After an early friendship which influenced, among other things, the writing of the Declaration of Independence, Adams and Jefferson had become political rivals by the 1790s. Hurt feelings following the contentious presidential election of 1800 kept their interactions to a minimum for more than a decade. In January 1812, however, they resumed their relationship. Between then and April 1826, less than three months before their deaths on July 4, they engaged in one of the most distinguished correspondences in American history or letters. Introspective, reflective, and remarkably informed, these men tested the other′s understanding of the previous half century of the nation′s political, economic, and social development at the same time they shared credit as Founding Fathers for much of what America had become.
The epistolary friendship of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson revealed the two former presidents to be among the most learned men of their day. Avid readers both, each man built an impressive library containing thousands of volumes. As Jefferson wrote to Adams in 1815, I cannot live without books. In fact, over time Jefferson built three libraries, the second of which served in 1815 as the basis for the Library of Congress, reconstructed after the burning of Washington during the War of 1812. Their reading permeated their thought and their actions, providing an important foundation for their contributions to American governance.
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson: Libraries, Leadership, and Legacy, will explore the presidents′ reading and books as a means of understanding the intellectual roots of the American polity. Presentations will consider how each man developed his library, discuss how reading significantly shaped the political, philosophical, and religious identities and actions of these two Founding Fathers and their contemporaries, and address the enduring legacy of Adams′s and Jefferson′s intellectual heritage today.

Girls roundup: Scott snaps Summers' streak at 105
Makenzie White scored 27 points to lead host Scott past Summers County 72-55 Saturday night, ending the nation's longest active winning streak in girls high school basketball.
"That was fun,'' said Scott coach John Porter, whose team has lost to the Bobcats in the last two Class AA state championship games and were winless in their last six games against Summers. "It's nice to beat them. We had seven people play and they were all great.''
The Bobcats (9-1), who have won five straight Class AA state championships and were No. 1 in this week's Associated Press poll, had won 105 straight, last losing in January 2008.
Jaimee Dotson added 18 points and Julie Conway 11 for the No. 2 Skyhawks (9-1), who lost at home 54-50 to Chapmanville on Thursday.
Scott only led 12-10 after the opening quarter, then stretched its advantage to 10 points (27-17) at halftime. The Skyhawks outscored the Bobcats 45-38 in the second half.
Candace Brown netted a game-high 39 points and was the only player in double figures for Summers. Brown is featured in this week's issue of Sports Illustrated in the Faces in the Crowd section for surpassing 1,000 career points and helping the Bobcats to the winning streak.
Bianca Andre' scored 19 points for the Spartans (11-0), while Chaunte McDowell added 11 and Anna Hammaker 10. Allie Browne tallied 17 points for the Redskins (6-5) and Abby Watson 13. Hurricane's Chloe Barber contributed eight points and 12 rebounds.
Knapp added seven steals and freshman Brittany Wood blocked seven shots for the Warriors (4-8). Paige Smith had 16 points and Rachel Stuck 14 for the Vikings (2-8), who trailed by 14 at halftime and got within two at the end.

On the walk to my hotel after the last night of the conference, I was stopped and detained by the police. As I was walking past the parliament building a police officer stopped me and asked me for my passport. I didn't have my passport, so he called for backup. They questioned me for a while--what are you here for, what's in your bag, etc. Eventually, I told them I was a philosopher, and they asked me to "prove" it!! How they fuck am I supposed to prove I'm a philosopher? I wanted to give him an argument against god's existence but I didn't want to thrown in prison and miss my flight! Eventually they let me go.

Step one: Acquire writing materials (stick + sand, paper + pen/pencil, blood + wall, etc.).
Step two: write out a random string of logic (I advise modal or deontic, for maximum confusion). Even better, write out a theorem.
Step three: test the string from step two for validity. Or endeavour to prove said theorem.
Step four: read out all your lines in a natural language of your choice.

To prove you're a philosopher by "writing out a random string of logic" is like proving you're a novelist by disassembling a typewriter.
I would think being stupid enough not to carry a passport in a foreign country would be sufficient proof that one is a philosopher.

Crossing the Canada/U.S. border I've had similar experiences. I tell the border guard that I'm going to the U.S. for an academic conference, and they invariably ask in what discipline. I answer 'philosophy' trying not to sound too sheepish. They always probe you with a few questions to see if your story holds up.
One time, the guard paused, looked at me in the eye, and said, "What kind of philosophy? Do you know Immanuel Kant?" and then we got in a five minute discussion on the relation of Kant to contemporary analytic philosophy. It was kind of weird.

The first comment clearly has it right.
But really one would start out by admitting confusion about the question: does the officer want proof that one is employed in a certain way—e.g. by a department of philosophy or of some plausibly adjacent discipline, to research and teach—or that one thinks in an intuitively "philosophical" way, being careful to make that the officer knows that articulating the second sense of the question less opaquely would be hard work?
One could then moot the question by presenting one's papers: this would take care of the first sense, and as for the second sense, well, takes one to know one.

I have had a few unpleasant experiences crossing from one country to another. That includes the time I was traveling from Toledo, Ohio to Windsor one spring because a Chinese restaurant in Canada had fresh asparagus as part of a dish. The Canadian border guard commented that it was a long way to go for a meal--and that was after asking me whether the woman in the car next to me was my sister.
That was before the attacks in New York and Washington. Since then the questions have become more direct, more personal, and more offensive.
One representative of the British government once commented on the ethnic origin suggested by my family name with raised eyebrows and a voice suggestive of the blackness and immorality only found in the "East" of Europe. He also required me to back up my claim that I was on my way to Prague to work at a magazine. By chance, I had a copy of a publication of the Slovak Academy of Sciences which included an article by me. That satisfied him.
But there is nothing funny about this general phenomenon, though I suspect that those of us commenting on this here haven't experienced the worst of it.
I will, however, add one story that I heard from an Austrian student. He and his wife were coming to the USA on vacation. On two occasions his wife was detained and questioned alone at great length. Later, it emerged that a man from Australia who was on some kind of list actually had the same passport number as my student's wife. In a conversation with the American officials, my student sought to distinguish Austria from Australia by saying, "We don't have any kangaroos"...

From Nabokov's Bend Sinister, chapter 2:
As Krug, trudging steadily, approached, two Ekwilist soldiers barred his way. More were lurking around, and when a lantern moved, knight-wise, to check him, he noticed a little man dressed as a meshchaniner [petty bourgeois] standing with folded arms and smiling a sickly smile. The two soldiers (both, oddly enough, had pock-marked faces) were asking, Krug understood, for his (Krug's) papers. While he was fumbling for the pass they bade him hurry and mentioned a brief love affair they had had, or would have, or invited him to have with his mother.
'I doubt,' said Krug as he went through his pockets, 'whether these fancies which have bred maggot-like from ancient taboos could be really transformed into acts - and this for various reasons. Here it is' (it almost wandered away while I was talking to the orphan - I mean, the nurse).
They grabbed it as if it had been a hundred krun note. While they were subjecting the pass to an intense examination, he blew his nose and slowly put back his handkerchief into the left-hand pocket of his overcoat; but on second thought transferred it to his right-hand trouser pocket.
'What's this?' asked the fatter of the two, marking a word with the nail of the thumb he was pressing against the paper. Krug, holding his reading spectacles to his eyes, peered over the man's hand. 'University,' he said. 'Place where things are taught - nothing very important.'
'No, this,' said the soldier.
'Oh, "philosophy." You know. When you try to imagine a mirok [small pink potato] without the least reference to any you have eaten or will eat.' He gestured vaguely with his glasses and then...

Regardless of the vogue for claims of technicality, philosophy is not chemistry. If it were there would be no problems at Middlesex. Philosophy professors disdain the arts and humanities until they need protection from the vulgarians they would otherwise champion.

And Wittgenstein was a beery swine

Socrates himself was permanently pissed.
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,

Engineered to deliver high capacity in a small form factor, the mobile series still retains the outstanding level of quality and reliability for which Fujitsu is renowned. The 5,400RPM mobile HDDs achieve 80GB per platter, among the top in the industry with this spindle speed. Featuring 160GB of storage space, low power consumption and reduced acoustic noise, the 2.5-inch SATA hard disk drives are an excellent choice for today's ultra-fast, high-capacity notebook computers.
With the delivery of its first generation, perpendicular recording SATA hard disk drive, Fujitsu continues to demonstrate its strong commitment to technology leadership.

PHOTOS: Florida's rejected license plates aren't always offensive
St. Petersburg, Florida - Armed and hiding in the attic, Hydra Lacy, Jr. was a desperate man. He'd already spent time in prison and he told people he wasn't about to go back.
"He had been to see me," said Lacy's stepmother, Willie Mae Norton, at the scene. "He told me, 'I'm not going back to jail no more.'"
Authorities were hunting for Lacy because in November he'd skipped out on a trial for domestic violence. He was accused of beating his wife, Christine Lacy, in 2009 so severely that she had to be hospitalized.
"The last incident, you could barely recognize her face. Her nose was twisted, she had black eyes, she had IVs hooked up to her," said a close friend of Christine's who did not want to be identified. "He almost beat her to death."
Lacy was supposed to go on trial last November on that domestic violence charge, but he never showed up for court. Since then, a fugitive task force had been trying to track him down and, this morning, they showed up at Christine's house with a warrant.
Lacy has a long criminal record, including convictions for sexual battery and false imprisonment of a child, burglary, grand theft auto and resisting an officer with violence. He spent more than a decade in prison. For criminal record details, click here.
Hydra Lacy's brother, Jeff Lacy, is a former champion boxer who has talked about the sport keeping him out of trouble. But it appears when Hydra Lacy turned his fists on Christine, he started down the road to today's deadly gunfight, leaving the community and his own family to grieve. Norton says, "I care, he done live with me all his life."
Investigators are now trying to determine how Lacy died. He may have been shot by police or he may have taken his own life.

Economic opportunity
To build a brighter economic future, we know that young people around the world need education, resources and support. Watch the video above to learn how we're empowering young people in Africa to go after their dreams, start their own businesses, and succeed — no matter what challenges they may face.
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

Mayo Clinic offers appointments in Arizona, Florida and Minnesota and at Mayo Clinic Health System locations.
Each year thousands of patients who have any of more than 200 kinds of cancer seek treatment at Mayo Clinic in Florida. Hematologists and oncologists in the Division of Hematology/Oncology work closely with physicians from virtually every specialty at Mayo in the care of patients with cancer.
Division staff also work within the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center. The National Cancer Institute has designated the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center a comprehensive cancer center, one of the top tier of cancer centers in the United States for cancer research, patient treatment and education.
New drugs, immunologic and biological targeted therapies and gene therapies are studied within the division to determine their potential for preventing and treating cancers. This allows qualified patients to enroll in cutting-edge clinical cancer research studies and receive the most advanced treatments. Participating in Mayo Clinic's exceptional research programs enables patients to learn about their condition and helps them become active participants in their cancer care.
The most common cancers seen at Mayo Clinic are cancer of the colon, breast, prostate and lung. However, oncologists have extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of every kind of cancer.
Hematologists evaluate and treat patients with malignant and nonmalignant conditions. Nonmalignant conditions include:
Malignant hematologic disorders include:
Division hematologists also provide blood-forming stem cell and bone marrow transplantation from autologous and allogeneic sources. Autologous means the patient is the donor. Donors in allogeneic transplants might be relatives or perhaps someone who is not related to the patient. Hematologists also assess the need for administration of blood products and the removal of excess blood components as needed for a variety of hematological (blood) disorders.
The Division of Hematology/Oncology includes more than 20 physicians and allied health professionals. Members of the division work closely with colleagues in the departments of Radiation Oncology, Surgery, Radiology and Pathology to provide each patient with accurate diagnosis, treatment and individualized care, using one or more types of cancer-killing therapies. They also collaborate with physicians and allied health professionals in related medical specialties to ensure that cancer patients and their families have access to total care for their physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual needs. Related medical specialties include:
Innovative and advanced cancer care is available at Mayo Clinic through state-of-the-art facilities and experienced staff. Patients and their families can learn more about cancer and find information about local resources in the William and Nancy Juhn Cancer Education Room on the 8th floor of the Davis Building.

Anyone know anything about the current status of this trail?
According to this link:
The trail starts at Farmersville, is real nice, then sort of peters out after a couple of miles.
The reason I ask, is I just drove through Celeste, and it looked like a paved trail through there. Surely it's not paved the whole way? Or is it just a mile or two around Celeste that is fixed up nice?

Why, hello there, everyone!
It's that time of year again! That's right, everybody's favorite moderator named "divisionten", divisionten, and I, everybody's favorite non-moderator who is not named "divisionten", will be hosting yet another round of Secret Santa funanigans to contribute to Holiday spirit! The Summer Santa was our most popular yet, so let's hope we can beat it this time!
Games must be gifted through Steam, no exceptions
As with last time, there's no firm maximum, but please don't go overboard with your gifting. Most people only spend between ten and twenty dollars on their gift as a maximum. Also, there's a minimum of $2.50/£2 so we don't get anyone buying Fortix or something silly like that.
You MAY send gag gifts (like BRATZ or THE MAGIC CRAYON something silly, but it DOES NOT COUNT towards your gift. Also, don't send a more expensive gag gift than your real one. It'll probably get regifted anyway)
We're also asking that those who do join have a post count of 60 or more and joined the forum prior to October 2012. Just trying to keep potential scammers out. :)
Sign Ups:
To sign up, please send the email your Steam account is associated with and your Steam name to divisionten via Private Message. Then, please post in this thread so I can keep a running list of those who are signing up - you must do both of these before the deadline, so we can get started without a problem as soon as possible! It's highly recommend you simultaneously post your Steam Wishlist in this thread, so the people who are gifting you at least have some idea what kind of game you'd like. The period for entry ends one second before the Steam Holiday Sale begins at 6pm GMT on December 20, 2012, and the period to gift ends one second before said sale ends. We'll then try and get everyone's target to them as soon as possible.
As per last year's seemingly very effective strategy, gifts will be sent via proxy to maintain anonymity. Divisionten will provide more details when it is time to assign targets.
List of Participants:
Darth Marsden
Giant Tope
Our main rule, as always, is to have a good time! Any questions can either be PM'd to me or divisionten or asked in the thread itself.
Happy Holidays,

Columbia, SC (WLTX) - For the past 10 months or so, Bruce Ellington's been referred to as a "two sport star at USC."
Not any longer.
Ellington confirmed Monday that he's going to be a basketball player full-time, and won't be on the football team this coming season.
"Basketball's always been my first love," said Ellington in a written statement. "After giving it a lot of thought, this is the decision I've made. If you want to be great at something you have to commit to it full-time. I appreciate Coach [Steve] Spurrier for giving me an opportunity to play football at South Carolina. It was a great experience, but right now I want to focus on basketball. I also want to thank all the fans for their support throughout my time in Columbia."
Ellington emerged last season as a valuable weapon in the Gamecock offense, often being employed in multiple running back formations.
Ellington ended up with 707 all purpose yards : 211 receiving, 106 rushing, and 390 on kick returns. That performance helped land him on the SEC's All-Freshman team.
During the basketball season that just wrapped up, Ellington averaged 11 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game.

Swappin' SheetmetalWritten on August 12, 2002 Replacing damaged Chevy sheetmetal with Goodmark reproduction parts
When Shaughn Reid dressed up his '67 Chevy Fleetside like a NASCAR race truck, he didn't expect to go slamming into a guardrail like a rookie at Bristol Motor Speedway. But that's exactly what happened one winter morning when he romped on the throttle and hit a damp patch of freeway. Like a lucky NASCAR pilot, Shaughn walked away from the accident. His pickup, on the other hand, wasn't so fortunate.
The Chevy was still driveable, but it was battered on both ends. Thanks to a race-style 180 degree spin, Shaughn had managed to crunch the right front corner and left rear side of the truck. The worst hit areas were the right front fender and the left bedside, with both bumpers also suffering substantial damage. To compound problems, Shaughn knew that the front panel of the bed had a pretty serious case of rust. In short, this Chevy needed a healthy dose of sheetmetal surgery--fast!
Fortunately, reproduction body parts are plentiful for '67-72 Chevys. In fact, all Shaughn had to do was open up a Goodmark catalog to find all the replacement parts he needed. Goodmark even had new bumpers available. While he was ordering parts, Shaughn figured it wouldn't hurt to spring for some upgrades too, so he had Goodmark send a steel cowl-induction hood along with all of the replacement sheetmetal.
While you might think that repairs of this nature are something that only a professional bodyman can handle, the fact is that every single part needing replacement was a bolt-on item. Even the bed panels on '67-72 Chevys bolt together, meaning that novice enthusiasts can usually tackle the task of removal-and-replacement. That's what Shaughn elected to do, along with the help from the employees at his shop, Streetshock. Additional assistance came from Foreign Auto Body (Gardena, California), where the inside and underside of the various panels were painted so they wouldn't have to be removed before painting the truck. Once the new body panels were bolted in place, the truck was ready for a trip to the body shop for final fit, prep work, and a paint job. But those are stories for another time and place. For now let's look at what it takes to replace the damaged parts. As you'll see in the photos and captions, it's really a pretty straightforward affair.

Ouch! The body on this '67 Chevy was definitely worse for wear after owner Shaughn Reid decided to play NASCAR racer on the freeway. The accident pretty much trashed the left bedside and right front fender, as well as both bumpers.In addition to the wrinkled body parts, the ol' tin worm had eaten through a fair amount of metal on the front panel of the bed. It would have to be replaced, too.Likewise, the Goodmark front bed panel and front fender are exact duplicates of the original pieces.It's usually a lot easier to bolt on these new parts than it would be to repair rust or damage on the originals.Fortunately, reproduction sheetmetal for '67-72 Chevy pickups is readily available from companies like Goodmark Industries.The first item ordered from Goodmark was a left bedside. The bedside is registered as an official GM Restoration Part and is the spittin' image of an original unit. It's a complete assembly consisting of an outer skin welded to the appropriate inner support structure, and comes coated in electro-static black primer.All bedsides come with an opening for the side-marker light, which will have to be filled to be "correct" on this '67 pickup.While he was replacing parts, Shaughn figured he might as well upgrade the hood to a cowl-induction version. This is another relatively simple bolt-on piece, and also came from Goodmark.
You'll find a row of carriage bolts along the side and front of the bed floor, five bolts holding each bedside to the front panel, and another row of bolts along a lip inside the wheel well.With all of the hardware removed, the bedside could be lifted off the bed. To make things easier, all work was done with the bed off the truck.Here's an inside look at the damaged bedside. The rear section was so mangled that it had to be cut away before the bedside would come off.With some help from the guys at Foreign Auto Body (Gardena, California), this section was massaged back into shape without too much trouble.Here's another look at the rusty front bed panel. As you can see, not all California trucks are completely rust-free.
Since a full paint job wasn't in the cards yet, Shaughn only worried about having the back sides of the panels prepped and painted. This will make things easier when the truck is finally ready for paint, because the body parts won't necessarily have to come apart again. Since the parts were already coated with a durable primer, they were merely sanded with a scuff pad to prep them for paint.Unbolting the front fender was pretty straightforward, but it seemed like each time we thought we had removed all the bolts we would find a half-dozen more to take out. At this point the hood had already been removed, too.Then they were sprayed with the color of choice, a late-model bronze/copper hue used on Jeep and Chrysler vehicles.When the parts came out of the paint booth, it was time for re-assembly back at Shaughn's shop. The front bed panel was the first part to be bolted back in place.Next came the new bedside, which slid into place without a hitch. As you can see, we found that a couple of 4x4 tires provided an adequate work surface for the bed.The original carriage bolts were re-used along the front edge of the bed floor, while the original hex bolts were employed along the right vertical edge.Once again, bolting the new bedside in place was pretty straightforward--five bolts at the front of the panel, and a row of carriage bolts along the edge of the bed floor.
It was finally time to bolt on the new cowl-induction hood. This is easier with two people, especially when you consider that it usually takes several adjustments to get the alignment just right.To finish things off, Shaughn felt a healthy burnout was in order to celebrate his truck's new lease on life. Hey, when you're happy, why not let the whole neighborhood know by giving them a big whiff of tire smoke!With the tailgate and taillight back in place on the bed (and the bed back on the truck), the Chevy is almost back to its original state. All that's missing is the rear bumper, which didn't arrive in time to make our photo shoot. The opening for the side marker light will be filled at a later date when the pickup goes in for paint.We've had bad experiences in the past with aftermarket bumpers, but this one from Goodmark was top quality and had very nice chrome, to boot.The front end sure looked a lot better once everything was bolted back together. A body shop will eventually have to fine-tune the alignment of all the panels, but even here it looks pretty darn good. The cowl-induction style hood is a welcome addition to the design of the '67-72 Chevy/GMC body. We can't wait to see the truck painted.

We recently had a change in a position and I would like to use the previous employee's (Margaret) mailbox as the new employee's (Phyllis) starting account due to the importance of the emails contained. It appears I can change the name and account login information to Phyllis just fine, but when she sends email, it still goes out as email@example.com

John Wesley's Teaching is the first systematic exposition of John Wesley's theology that is also faithful to Wesley's own writings. Wesley was a prolific writer and commentator on Scripture---his collected works fill eighteen volumes---and yet it is commonly held that he was not systematic or consistent in his theology and teachings. On the contrary, Thomas C. Oden demonstrates that Wesley displayed a remarkable degree of internal consistency over sixty years of preaching and ministry. This series of 4 volumes is a text-by-text guide to John Wesley's teaching. It introduces Wesley's thought on the basic tenets of Christian teaching: God, providence, and man (volume 1), Christ and salvation (volume 2), the practice of pastoral care (volume 3), and issues of ethics and society (volume 4). In everyday modern English, Oden clarifies Wesley's explicit intent and communicates his meaning clearly to a contemporary audience. Both lay and professional readers will find this series useful for devotional reading, moral reflection, sermon preparation, and for referencing Wesley's opinions on a broad range of pressing issues of contemporary society.
