OSHA awards more than $4 million in grants to provide safety and health training for 50,000 workers and managers
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration today awarded $4,177,000 in Susan Harwood Training Grants to conduct safety and health training programs for more than 50,000 workers, supervisors and employers nationwide.
"These grants educate and train employers and workers in ways to reduce injuries and illnesses," Secretary of Labor Alexis M. Herman said. "The programs funded will go a long way to achieving our goal of a safe and healthful workplace for all Americans."
Forty grants are being awarded. Sixteen of the grantees were selected through a national competition open to all nonprofit organizations. The remaining 24 awards are extensions of existing grants for another year.
"Many of the grants will focus on the injuries and illnesses in selected industries identified by OSHA's strategic plan - construction, health services and preventing amputations in manufacturing," said Assistant Secretary of Labor Charles N. Jeffress. "Others will provide training on such significant topics as ergonomics, food processing safety and silica hazards in general industry."
The grants are named in honor of the late Susan Harwood, a former director of the Office of Risk Assessment in OSHA's health standards directorate, who died in 1996. During her career, Harwood helped develop OSHA standards to protect workers exposed to bloodborne pathogens, cotton dust, benzene, formaldehyde, asbestos and lead in construction.

Skip to comments.China lands First Fighter Jet on Aircraft Carrier ( Video) (No Signup Required....)
Posted on 11/27/2012 1:23:25 PM PST by Ernest_at_the_Beach
The Next Chapter of China's Defense
China's military ambitions are now aided by the landing of its first fighter jet on an aircraft carrier. The WSJ's Jeremy Page discusses what this means for the country's defense strategy.
(Excerpt) Read more at trc.taboolasyndication.com ...
Working on getting this fixed.....(what are they doing now?)
Was it on one of OUR carriers?
They may be able to now fight a WWII type of war..
BUT under water(submarine) drones.. could put a kink in their plans..
While searching for F22 sorties.. they may get a surprise they didnt expect..
not overlooking limpet(style) drones invading their harbors..
Probably the chinese carriers are just PR programs.. anyway..
Only 90 years after the West did it. Or 101, depending on how you define "aircraft carrier."
That worked!
I don't see what the fuss is about, if China just now landed its first fighter jet on an aircraft carrier. Their first fighter jet would have been back about the time of the Korean War. I will start worrying when they land some of their more recent models.
No catapult? Looks like an oversized British jumpjet carrier.
Just wondering how many aircraft we have landed on carriers in say the last 24 hours.
What was that?....no windows here.
Video says it is a Russian design,....hull was acquired from the Ukraine.
That makes them only, what, 50-60 years behind in conventional military capability now?
It will be tough to project power when you have to keep moving around the one Chinese pilot who has landed on a carrier to use his skills.
I read something about the Chinese carrier some time ago that suggested it was a stripped down Kiev?—class Russian Carrier. However, I do not remember precisely.
It was merely a frivolous sound bite.
I am currently in a Master's Degree program for Computer Science. About 1/3 of my class is Chinese. Not 2nd and 3rd generation Chinese Americans, I mean off the boat, completed their bachelor's degrees in China. They're perfectly friendly, bright and decent students, but that does not diminish the threat that China's rapidly increasing technological capability poses to our future. Our last remaining advantage is that our communists in power will not want to cede authority to their communists in power.
Right. The Obamination has too big an ego. He'll cede authority to his wife or daughter on his deathbed.
The American People are Corrupt.. whom elect corrupt officials to govern them..
ELSE; they would change them....... they don't... and have no intention to..
any thats NOT corrupt may be hunted down soon and dealt with..
It always happens.. when corruption becomes "normal"..
The 2012 republican primary's have far reaching recriminations..
ALL conservative candidates were (AND are) REJECTED...
Simply amazing how stupid most republicans are playing the GLAD GAme.. i.e. PollyAnna..
"China's military ambitions are now aided by the landing of its first fighter jet on an aircraft carrier."
And the other 99 pilots who tried landed below the waterline.
The PLAN will find the world of carrier aviation has a very steep and deadly learning curve. Chinese pilots will come to know the sheer terror of a night carrier landing in combat conditions on a pitching deck. This is the one evolution that scares our Naval Aviators the most — as it should.

With June right around the corner, Beach Time is looming large on the horizon for us sun-starved Northwesterners. Last week, we offered up some stellar light fiction in the "chick lit" vein; this week, it's a more general compilation of books in a wider assortment of genres that still fit into that vague "beach reads" category: Books that are heavy enough to weigh down your beach towel, but not heavy enough to weigh down your spirits. We rate them here with one to four beach umbrellas — four being the best.
"Sparkles," by Louise Bagshawe (Plume, $14), Three umbrellas: British bestseller Louise Bagshawe scores with this glittery saga about an heiress to one of Europe's great jewelry firms. Mild-mannered Sophie Massot, whose charismatic husband, Pierre, left on a trip seven years previously and has never returned, is taking steps to have him declared dead, and surprise everyone around her by taking control of the moribund jewelry business. But has Pierre really expired? Bagshawe throws some surprising twists into a story full of glitz and glamour.
"The Year of Fog," by Michelle Richmond (Delacorte Press, $20), Four umbrellas: If you read this one at the beach, you're going to remain within arm's length of your youngsters. It's a harrowing, beautifully written story of a photographer and soon-to-be stepmom whose momentary lapse in attention results in the disappearance of her fiancé's little girl on a foggy beach in San Francisco. What happened to 6-year-old Emma? The answer, and its implications, will keep you on the edge of your beach chair.
"The Witch of Portobello," by Paulo Coelho (HarperCollins, $24.95), Three-and-a-half umbrellas: The Brazilian-born author of "The Alchemist" returns with this masterly novel about Athena, the illegitimate daughter of a Transylvanian gypsy adopted by well-to-do Lebanese parents. Athena sees prophetic visions, a gift that is both a blessing and a curse. Her story is told through a succession of narrators, beginning with the journalist who was enthralled by her, and including her mentor, her student and several others who find Athena a woman ahead of her time — and yet, after all this analysis and discussion, Athena remains mysterious to the very end.

Most Read Stories
"Obsession," by Karen Robards (G.P. Putnam's Sons, $24.95), Three umbrellas: Some of the developments in this creepily effective suspense novel may strike you as highly improbable, but the premise is a real gripper: Katherine, special assistant to the head of the CIA, is bound and gagged on the kitchen floor while masked gunmen search her house. When she regains consciousness, Katherine doesn't recognize herself in the mirror — her hair, her nails, even her too-slender body. What's going on? Can she trust the hunky doctor who shows up to help her, or is he one of the bad guys? You'll keep the pages turning to find out.
"McKettrick's Luck," by Linda Lael Miller (HQN Books, $7.99), Two-and-a-half umbrellas: The first in a series of three novels about the McKettrick family by local author Linda Lael Miller, this one is set in the Arizona hinterlands, where manly men wear cowboy boots and feel deep kinship with the land. Landowner Jesse McKettrick is incensed when Cheyenne Bridges approaches him with a scheme (forced upon her by her slimeball boss) to develop his property. Other things develop instead, having to do with "every position in the Kama Sutra."
"Secrets of a Former Fat Girl," by Lisa Delaney (Hudson Street Press, $21.95), Three-and-a-half umbrellas: This one is nonfiction, not a novel, but if you're like nearly everybody else on the beach, you are looking around for a swimsuit cover-up created by Omar the Tentmaker. Delaney, who lost 70 pounds, has kept them off for 20 years and wears a size 2, offers a bookful of realistic, smart and exquisitely funny tips for getting off the beach lounger and keeping the weight off for good. (Surprise: The first tip has nothing to do with anything you eat.)
"The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets," by Eva Rice (Plume, $14), Three umbrellas: The daughter of British lyricist Tim Rice (frequent collaborator with Andrew Lloyd Webber), Eva Rice visits 1950s London in this novel that has a faint tinge of an updated "Brideshead Revisited": upper-crust youngsters, a fabulous but decaying stately home, unsuitable love affairs, bad behavior and frequent dollops of enticing secrets amongst the glamorous and guilty, as they quaff champagne and nibble violet creams from Harrods.
"Julia's Chocolates," by Cathy Lamb (Kensington Books, $14), Three umbrellas: Oregon author Cathy Lamb has a zinger of an opening sentence for her debut novel: "I left my wedding dress hanging in a tree somewhere in North Dakota." The narrator, one Julia Bennett, has cast off the dress as she ran away from her snobby fiancé, whose favorite endearments are "Ferret Eyes" and "Cannonball Butt." She heads for Aunt Lydia, an eccentric of the deepest dye, to reconnect with what is important in life: a circle of colorful new buddies, and a whole lot of chocolate. We think Julia's onto something here.
"Right Before Your Eyes," by Ellen Shanman (Delta Trade Paperback, $12), Three umbrellas: In this hilariously witty debut novel, struggling playwright Liza Weiler feels sadly incompetent next to her two-Tony-winning, star-actress great-aunt Fran, whose aphorisms include, "Your ideal job should involve gin and being fawned over." Liza's ghastly New York office-temp job involves neither, but things start to pick up when she steps off a curb and sprains her ankle, which then swells to the approximate size of New Jersey. She meets hunky Dr. Tim, a hot off-Broadway playhouse starts looking at her new play and Lisa finally takes Aunt Fran's advice: "Just feel lucky and don't let go."

Consumer Highlight: Benjamin Shank

As many of you may know, about 439,000 Pennsylvanians have enrolled in expanded Medicaid since the beginning of 2015. Expanded Medicaid has helped many uninsured Pennsylvanians get the coverage they need that wasn't previously available to them.
By Emily A. Eckert, Community Health Organizer

The evidence is beginning to pile up showing just how much Pennsylvania is losing by failing to expand Medicaid under the Afforadble Care Act.

Harrisburg, PA (September 16, 2013) – Governor Corbett has announced his support of expanding health care coverage through the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid Expansion.
Antoinette Kraus, Director of the Pennsylvania Health Access Network issued the following statement in response:
Harrisburg, PA (July 3, 2013) -- Today, members of the Pennsylvania Senate Rules Committee opted to cease further delay in passing a welfare code bill by accepting the House version of HB 1075, which had been stripped of language requiring Governor Corbett to move forward with an expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act.
The Senate passed Medicaid Expansion (with huge bipartisan support, 40-10) in a code bill that accompanies our state budget, and sent the bill back to the House for final approval. Unfortunately, a small minority in the House stripped Medicaid Expansion back out, and blocked efforts to allow all members to vote on it.
We want to be clear about 2 things:
We've fought hard, and it's paid off!

Comments about Nike San Francisco 49ers Customized Elite Jersey - White:
I'm gunna start off by saying I gave it 3 star not because of the price and I am not going to be one of those people that will complain about the price because I know how expensive authentic jerseys are (I work for the San Francisco Giants and I also own quite a few), the price is never a problem because people don't realize that when it comes to authentic merchandise you are paying for something that is the same quality as what the players have. But as for this jersey it looks sick but when you first put it on it feels a little stiff, which I'm hoping that will be something that will fix its self over time, and it fits great except the main problem is the armpits are way too tight, it makes it hard to raise your arms. I had a replica jersey that had the same problem but I got it autographed which lead me to buy this one. Nike always makes their product too tight is some way which is why I'm disappointed the NFL didn't keep Reebok contract. Over all I love the jersey but Nike needs to fix the armpit area and not make it so tight.

- Feels half size too big

The Trouble with SAN storage is that most of it is too well designed. Really.
Some serious engineering goes into making highly fault-tolerant, reliable devices. They're designed to be available all the time. It reminds me of a saying…
The difference between something that can break and something that can't break is that when something that can't break does, it's hell to get at
I've got an AX4-5 at my secondary site that hasn't worked since this past weekend. The currently suspected reason is almost unfathomably simple…a sense cable.
See, the way that heavy-duty RAID controllers work is that they have a significant amount of cache. Because the array wants to be absolutely sure of everything that is written and unwritten, the cache on the actual hard drives is disabled, and the cache is used for the entire controller.
By using this cache, the response time of the entire array is heavily improved. Instead of waiting for the data to actually be written to the disks, you can wait until it's spooled into the cache (much faster). The drawback is that if you lose power, the data wasn't written to the disk, and would be lost. To circumvent that, the array has a Standby Power Supply (SPS), which is essentially just a UPS.
The SPS is plugged into the power source, and the controller is plugged into the SPS. To alert the controller to a power outage, the SPS and controller share a sense cable. Without this cable, the controller doesn't know it needs to flush the cache to disk, so it would merrily continue to store data in RAM until it loses power.
Because the storage array is designed NOT. TO. LOSE. YOUR. DATA., if you don't have a battery, or even a sense cable, the array turns off all of that expensive, performance-producing cache. With no cache whatsoever, not even on the disks, reading continues to be relatively good, performance wise, but writing data, particularly non-linear data, is a drag, literally and figuratively.
This is the state that my standby array has been in since Sunday morning. The Navisphere Express interface was reporting
The storage system's Standby Power Supplies (SPSs) are not working properly. (0x7404)
, so EMC sent out a Customer Engineer (CE) to replace the SPS. Of course, by the time he got out here, they looked at the diagnostic information and saw that the array was ACTUALLY reporting a bad sense cable. No worries, just replace it. I'm sure one came with the SPS, right?
No, I'm afraid not. In fact, it wasn't going to be easy to get one at all.
Lets look at this with some perspective. I am less than an hour from New York City, one of the largest metropolitan and commercial hubs of the world. The equipment was in the heart of Philadelphia, the 6th most populated city in the country. Where are we going to get a sense cable? Apparently, Mexico. What am I supposed to think about that?
Anyway, as I was writing this entry, the replacement cable was installed. I got a brief 10 minute window where I really, honestly, thought the system was going to recover, as the cable was replaced, and I got an email:
Event 7210 has occurred on storage system FCNMM084200078 for device N/A at 10/06/10 19:52:11
The event description is: The write cache is temporarily disabled because the SPS battery is testing or charging. When the battery is fully charged, the write cache will automatically be enabled. You can change the battery test time for this system if required.
Well, testing and charging are certainly better than "failed horribly and lying smoking on the ground, husks of their former selves". Alas, it was not to be. The next message:
Event 720f has occurred on storage system FCNMM084200078 for device N/A at 10/06/10 20:01:57
The event description is: The storage system has disabled its write cache, most likely because of a hardware issue. See the storage system Attention Required page for details.
Yay, back to that again. When will my storage come up? I honestly don't know, and what's worse, I'm so tired that I can't even care that much right now. Yesterday's 10 hours was the shortest day I've had since last Friday. I'm just wore out.
Writing this blog entry was pretty cathartic, though, so if my whining does nothing else, I feel a little better. Thanks for reading if you made it this far.

Getting her start playing drums with Canadian Garage Pop trio The White Wires, Allie Hanlon began Peach Kelli Pop as a solo outlet for her own songwriting. Peach Kelli Pop (Hanlon does all of the recording and friends join her on the road) is modeled after some of the classics of vintage Pop music.
A mix of '50s Rock & Roll shimmy and Bubblegum head-bopping, Hanlon's songs have a charm similar to Shonen Knife's spin on classic Pop, except instead of emulating The Ramones, Hanlon's endearing, infectious songs are presented as raw, lo-fi melody nuggets that would be right at home on a K Records 7-inch circa 1993.
Peach Kelli Pop has had music released by esteemed labels like Infinity Cat and Burger Records; on the current tour (a precursor to forthcoming road treks in Japan and Europe), fans can pick up a new single from Porchcore Records and a rarities cassette issued by Lollipop Records.

I am using OpenSuSE 11.3 and have a dual monitor setup. Graphicdrivers are completly untouched, I just took what came with the installation.
I use the default tool coming with KDE to manage my monitors and the only thing I have to do is to set the "Position" Property of my second monitor to "Left of DVI1". I then hit "Accept" and the setup is exactly as I want it.
But after rebooting, the setup is forgotten and the monitors are clones again.
Could anyone tell me how what I seem to be missing?

Mass Market Modernism
Patrons of art, from the de' Medici to Charles Saatchi, tend to be faintly dubious plutocratic individuals. Yet in the middle of the 20th century, London Transport, under the enlightened despotism of its managing director, Frank Pick, was perceived as a new kind of patron: the newly nationalised bureaucracies as heir to the taste-setting authority of the 18th-century aristocracy. Nikolaus Pevsner compared Pick to Lorenzo the Magnificent, but he was a stranger figure than that: a canny businessman and yet, according Herbert Read, "as much a socialist as I was", a patron of modern art at a time when it was ridiculed and marginalised, who would reject it in the late 1930s after being scandalised by surrealism.
Between the wars, Pick's aesthetic authority over the capital's transport system led to an attempt at bridging the divide between art and life, a late outbreak of the Arts and Crafts impulse to reform the aesthetics of the everyday. In fact, according to the American academic Michael T Saler in The Avant-Garde in Interwar England: Medieval Modernism and the London Underground, Pick's London was Britain's equivalent of the great Continental avant-garde movements, sharing their desire to revolutionise the mundane. If Russia had constructivism, the Netherlands De Stijl and Germany the Bauhaus, Britain had the Tube, transformed into a Gesamtkunstwerk through architecture, sculpture, industrial design and, most of all, the poster. Consequently, this copiously illustrated anthology of essays on the London Transport poster should, in theory, have the status of some new monograph on 1920s art, rather than being just a volume for transport enthusiasts. That is will be read more by the latter than by art or design students is a measure of failure.
Even though it promises "a century of art and design", this is almost entirely a book about Pick's organisation, with an opening dedication to his memory, and with relatively little about the posters as they developed after his death in 1941. To contemporary eyes, the most curious element of Pick's total transport artwork must be the enlisting of artists for something so apparently unartistic. Rather than independent works of art that then had a commercial message imposed upon them, these posters had their utilitarian aspect built in. This is a hall of mirrors where Graham Sutherland implores the commuter to take a refreshing trip to the country, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy shows you how an escalator works, and Edward Wadsworth recommends you visit the Lord Mayor's Show. It isn't just these great artists who provide the aesthetic interest, but a raft of in-house designers-Edward McKnight Kauffer, Austin Cooper, Herry Perry--churning out suburban vorticism. …

Daily Skin Care Regimen
If you have dry skin, you will need moisturizing products that nourish, so you will want to find protective and restorative products. Achieving a moisture balance with the right pH is key.
Begin with a very mild soap, possibly cream based. Since your skin is acidic, the alkaline in soap can easily disturb the delicate pH balance. Also, make sure that the soap does not contain harsh chemicals which will also remove the acid mantel and cause further dryness. Choose a toner that soothes and nourishes your skin. It should refresh with a hint of moisture—a low or no alcohol formulation is recommended to prevent over drying the skin.
A daily moisturizing routine is essential for dry skin. Begin with a serum to enhance moisture, then apply a day moisturizer. Try to use a day cream with an SPF Your evening ritual can include a serum application and a heavier moisturizer. Eye creams and serums are recommended for the delicate area around the eyes that are subject to fine lines and wrinkles.
Weekly Skin Care Routine
Use an extremely mild exfoliator in order to expose fresh skin and allow products to penetrate deeper. This will maximize the effectiveness of your skin care products. A moisture-enhancing mask that you put on and wipe off will moisturize and plump dry and dehydrated skin.
Product Recommendations:
Key Ingredients for Dry Skin:
Hyalauronic Acid, Glycerin, Lanolin, Alpha Hydroxy Acids, Oil (Of Jojoba, Olive, Apricot Seed, Avocado, Grapeseed Borage, Almond, Evening Primrose), Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Honey, Shea Butter, Argan, Baobab, Manuka Honey, Green Tea (Camilla Sinsnsis), Ceramide, Glycolic Acid, Hydrolized Wheat Protein, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Cucumber
When skin ages, its collagen and elastin are produced more slowly. This causes gradual changes like hyperpigmentation, discoloration, dryness, sagging, wrinkles, crepe-like folds, loss of muscle tone, textural unevenness and loss of elasticity.
The topical application of key skin firming ingredients works synergistically to protect and strengthen the skin. Skin care products should have a combination of naturally occurring active ingredients. They will contain compounds to protect which will likely be in the form of extracts containing antioxidants. Another set of ingredients will firm the skin by penetrating through its seven layers to support the collagen process at a cellular level.
Skin firming creams are usually formulated as night creams. They tend to be richer, thicker and more emollient and should be able to stay on long enough to absorb for maximum benefits. In general, face creams are designed to minimize lines/wrinkles, improve skin density, firm, plump and decrease puffiness (especially in the eye area).
Many manufacturers describe their product as a "cocktail" of ingredients that work together to decrease the effects of aging. Skin firming and anti-aging ingredients often include antioxidants, minerals, seaweed, herb extracts and different kinds of oils like Vitamins A and E. Other ingredients attributed to having a firming effect on the skin include green tea, aloe vera, beech bud extract, alpha lipoic acids, shea butter, hyaluronic acid and the very exotic sounding emu oil. Some firming and anti-aging products also contain light reflecting pigments, such as mica, to enhance the glow and make the skin look radiant.
You can choose the right skin firming creams according to your skin type (oily, combination or dry) and the anti-aging action associated with them.

We know thats great but the part that really excites us is how much more fun youll have getting to the places you couldnt go before.
Our proprietary Z-Force lithium ion power pack and handmade aircraft grade aluminum frame combine to form a motorcycle that is the fastest, lightest, cleanest, and most fun. Check out the Zero X features for more info.

On International Credit Union Day last week, credit unions from the Gulf Coast Chapter of Credit Unions, otherwise known as Credit Union Sense, gathered with local elected officials at La Brisa on the Creek for their last Political Meet & Greet of the year. The Political Meet & Greet gives credit unions a chance to collaborate and network with elected officials to enhance the credit union community.
Credit Union Sense maintains a strong presence within the community and believes it's important to get involved at such events to make progress with the credit union movement. Over 100 people attended the event and 20 of the attendees were elected officials. The festive night included dinner and silent and live auctions. Auction proceeds went to the Political Action Committee.
Along with credit union CEOs and elected officials, the event also included a select "Young Professional" from each credit union to share their perspectives on how to improve the credit union community.

According to a survey conducted by the Credit Union National Association, account holders sent a loud message to the banking industry last Saturday: We're out of here, and we're taking our money with us.

This week Italy became the latest European country to edge closer to catastrophic default, as interest rates on its 10-year government bonds topped 7 percent. As a point of reference, 10-year U.S. Treasuries are currently cruising at 2.1 percent. Rates on Italian bonds are so high because global markets believe Italy is at a much» Read more
Despite all the carping from banks over the swipe fee limits imposed by the Durbin Amendment, debit cards remain an important profit center for the industry.

Fifty-eight percent of U.S. men spend more time each week watching sports than they spend working on their personal finances, including their investments, according to a new national survey of 500 men conducted by TNS on behalf of ING Direct, an online bank, and Men's Health magazine.

It looks like despite backtracking from big banks on their plans to introduce debit card fees, Bank Transfer Day and customers fed up with fees are having an impact on the banking industry. The Credit Union National Association, known as CUNA, gave word this week that 5,000 of the nation's credit unions had signed up» Read more
Bank Transfer Day makes a darn good headline. But in fact, most consumers are extremely, very or at least somewhat likely to continue their existing relationship with their primary bank or credit union, according to a recent online poll of 2,463 adults by Harris Interactive.

She was only about halfway up the wall when 10-year-old Elsie Gothman got stuck.
It was her first time climbing, and she was going up the most challenging part of the climbing wall at the Clear Creek Recreation Center in Idaho Springs.
More than a thousand ladybugs spilled out of a container into the eager hands of children on Aug. 1 as part of a Ladybug Launch event hosted by the nonprofit Scraps-to-Soil.
Once more we are having unpredictable weather. But it is August, and August seems to have trouble deciding what to do.
It is generally a very nice month with a bit more rain than usual. But it also seems to think it is supposed to usher in fall, so it is sometimes cold, gray and miserable. It is the one month of the year when we can find a variety of fungi growing in the woods.
Ethiopian-born Dawit Woldeyohannes, the new pastor at First Baptist Church in Idaho Springs, is quick to laugh and tell stories in his British-accented English.
Woldeyohannes, who grew up in Addis Ababa, the capital and largest city in Ethiopia, recalled how a woman in the congregation recently asked him what part of Scotland he was from.
"I've never been to Scotland," Woldeyohannes said with a laugh, adding he spent many of his formative years learning at the British Consulate in Ethiopia.
I always associate the Townsend's solitaire, Myadestes townsendi, with working in the garden. For many years, a pair of these little gray birds nested just across the road on my neighbor's property. The male chose the utility line, which ran along the road, as one of his territorial perches.
At first, he used it to mark his territory boundary by singing from it several times a day. Later, when the female was incubating eggs, he sat on the wire, letting her know that he was nearby with a repetitive one-note whistle.
Nearly 40 volunteers gathered Saturday to help expand the Oxbow Trail, which will eventually help link Clear Creek and Jefferson counties.
Located along U.S. 6 near Tunnel 6, the trail segment serves as part of the Clear Creek Greenway, a project that eventually will run the length of the county. Ultimately, the greenway will become part of a continuous greenway from the Denver metro area to the Continental Divide.
It is difficult to believe that you can live in a community where a big bird with a 5 ½- to 6-foot wingspan is considered to be relatively abundant in summer without ever seeing one. Yet, that is exactly what happened recently to a friend who told me he had seen one perched on a fence post near his home. He had never seen one before but knew what it was immediately.
Georgetown recently opened its first firefighting museum, paying tribute to the area's past and present at the 138-year-old Alpine Hose House No. 2.
The historic structure and local architectural icon that towers above the town are the final result of 20 years worth of conservation efforts.
The museum opened on July 4th and is operated by the nonprofit Historic Georgetown Inc. from noon to 5 p.m. every day through Labor Day.
"It's been a project in the making for many years," said HGI president Sharon Rossino.
People frequently ask me why they never seen pine grosbeaks at their feeders and where they can see one. They are a very beautiful western bird living in the Rocky Mountains just a bit higher than most people do.
They rarely come down as low as Evergreen. Pine grosbeaks are gray, black and white birds. The males have a red head and upper body when they are adults, and the females and young are more yellowish. The immature males look much like the females, and the red on the males increases in amount every year as they mature.
Many people's first reaction on seeing an orange-and-black bird is that it must be an oriole; this, however, is not the case. We have another orange-and-black bird in the foothills that is not an oriole. It's short thick finch bill and dull burnt orange color will immediately rule out an oriole.
Orioles have a brilliant yellow-orange color and a thin long beak like other members of the blackbird family. The black-headed grosbeak is dark burnt orange, black and white.
Location, location location.
That's Realtor-speak meaning that where a property is matters more than what it is. And in the case of a charming refurbished property just coming onto the Clear Creek County rental market, location really is everything.
Our Lady of Perpetual Health stood like a precarious circus performer on stilts in Empire's Theobald Park on June 19.
On a typical sun-washed summer Saturday morning, Empire's tidy Minton Park is a peaceful place inhabited mostly by wildflowers and hummingbirds and the fresh breezes that scamper softly down from the snow-capped majesties filling every horizon.
From wooden frogs to steaming hot dogs — all manner of colorful wares were on display during the Idaho Springs Farmers Market on June 14.
The Idaho Springs chamber runs the market at Courtney-Riley-Cooper Park every Friday through September from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Chamber treasurer Deborah Lamberti said that with 25 vendors, the market is bigger than ever.
Like a bullet from a revolver, the bronco shot out of the chute, a cowboy dangling from his back.
The horse charged the fence on the opposite side of the rodeo grounds at full speed. The rider, realizing his dangerous predicament, jumped off at the last second, hit the ground, slid through the dirt and rolled into the rail.
A giant cloud of dust washed over the stunned spectators sitting in the stands. The cowboy was back to his feet, no worse for wear, and the Oh My Gawd Rodeo kicked off its summer season with a bang.
One of the most beautiful flowers in June is golden banner. It is in full bloom in my yard, but it starts blooming as early as April and May on the high plains. There are large yellow patches of golden banner now blooming throughout the foothills.
Soon it will march even higher with its yellow banners sparkling until it is blooming at Echo Lake in July and occasionally a bit higher above timberline in August.
An early-morning chill on Saturday gave way to a spectacularly sunny sky for Idaho Springs' official kickoff to the summer season during the annual parade and free barbecue on Miner Street.
With a leash-straining lurch and a cacophony of barking, more than 100 dogs and as many runners jerked forward to begin the Canine on the Creek 5K Run on Saturday morning.
Several four-legged participants resorted to walking on hind legs in their enthusiasm to hurry along their slower owners.
For the past two years, runners and walkers have gathered at Charlie's Place, the Clear Creek/Gilpin County Animal Shelter in Dumont, to raise funds for the shelter and share their enthusiasm for all things canine.
Editor's note: The Clear Creek Courant is celebrating its 40th anniversary of serving the residents of Clear Creek County. This year, the Courant will reprint portions of past articles from its four decades and will publish a series of stories about former employees.
When Sue Lathrop interned for the Courant in 1991, founders Cary Stiff and Carol Wilcox Stiff had been operating the paper for nearly 20 years.
It is so nice to have some warm spring days, and now we are promised summer temperatures this week. Just to go out in my yard and see green fields and robins looking for worms, and hear green-tailed towhees and house wrens singing is a tonic for my winter-shriveled soul.
Winter has been far too long this year, partly because it started early and because spring is a good two weeks late. The aspen trees at the bend in the road usually have their furry catkins by April 15, but this year, they did not shed their bud scales and bring out their furry catkins until May 2.

BMEotD #116: Double Dare (2004)
While watching shows like Wonder Woman and The Bionic Woman, I always thought that Lynda Carter and Lindsay Wagner were total bad asses. I mean they are legendary in their own way, but they had a lot of help. Jeannie Epper was the stunt double for both actresses. So in the episodes with dangerous action situations, Epper is the one to take the hit. Along with this talented female, the documentary Double Dare, also highlights Zoe Bell, the stunt double for fellow Kiwi native Lucy Lawless a.k.a Xena: Warrior Princess. It's extremely interesting following the careers of these women. You always want to know more.
By the way, I am not an oblivious person by any means. It's just that I wanted to be able to say "oh man Xena kicks ass" or "oh look Wonder Woman just kicked that guy's ass." Even before watching this informative documentary, I always knew it wasn't the actress all the time. I mean, look closely at the screen. Some of it's down right obvious. I just felt the need to give a shout out to the women who made these characters superhuman and oh dare say it, "the sh*t"

US speedskaters crash in relay, still advance to finals
US short-track speedskaters crashed during a 5000m semifinal relay, but the team was still able to advance to the finals.
The US short-track speedskating relay team suffered a crash, but still were able to advance to the finals.
Team USA's Eddy Alvarez collided into South Korea's Lee Ho-Suk during a semifinal run of the 5000m short track relay, and the rest of the US team scrambled to get back in the race, finishing fourth overall.
But officials analyzed the footage after the race and found the Koreans at fault, disqualifying the South Korean team and allowing the American team of J.R. Celski, Chris Creveling, Jordan Malone, and Alvarez to move on to the final round.
"I was nervous, extremely nervous, because you just never know how the calls are going to go," Alvarez was quoted in a Chicago Tribune article. "We're just happy it went our way."
Celski and Malone also competed at the 5000m relay at the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Back in 2010, the US took the bronze medal to Canada's gold and South Korea's silver.
But now with South Korea out, and defending gold medalists Canada also crashed and unable to advance to the finals, the US team's chances of medaling have drastically improved.
Now the US will be competing against the Netherlands, Kazakhstan, Russia, and China in the 5000m relay A finals on Feb. 21.

The annual report by the Catalogue for Philanthropy puts the Badger State 46th among states when average adjusted gross income is compared with the amount of itemized donations reported to the IRS.
Wisconsin's average annual income is about $45,000. Charitable donations are about $2,600 or nearly six percent of income.
The report shows that some of the poorest states are among the most generous. The group's president, George McCully in Boston, says nationwide, generosity is not related to income.
In Mississippi, where average annual income is nearly $35,000, itemized charitable deductions averaged nearly $4,800, or almost 14 percent of income.
