Michigan's Do-It-All Cornerback
1997 Heisman winner Charles Woodson
Every Heisman winner has a piece of history. But even among that select company, Charles Woodson's piece is -- for now -- unique. The Michigan Wolverines cornerback is the only primarily defensive player to win the award. That alone is impressive -- but the fact that he beat out superstar Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning to do it in 1997 ratchets Woodson's achievement to another level. To this day, some Volunteers fans remain outraged on Manning's behalf, especially as he's blossomed into a sure-fire NFL Hall of Famer. Tennessee sports information director Bud Ford was so disillusioned after Manning lost out to a cornerback that he all but swore off Heisman publicity campaigns (Ford relented in 2009 with Eric Berry -- a defensive back, ironically). And some with memories that stretched all the way back to Paul Hornung of 2-8 Notre Dame beating out the Volunteers' Johnny Majors in 1956 simply declared an anti-Tennessee conspiracy. But you have to give Woodson credit for what he accomplished in the '97 season. Woodson was everywhere for the Michigan Wolverines. He was the best cornerback in college football (eight interceptions, nine other passes broken up). He was a stellar tackler (44 total tackles, five for loss, one sack). He was a dangerous punt returner (301 return yards and one touchdown). He was a big-play performer while dabbling on offense (238 receiving yards, 41 rushing yards, three touchdowns). He made memorable plays in big games (a one-handed interception against rival Michigan State; a punt-return touchdown and 37-yard reception against Ohio State). There was nothing Woodson could not do and there was nobody on the schedule Michigan could not beat. Combine his versatility with the Wolverines' undefeated record and its share of the national title, plus Manning's four-year failure to beat Florida, and you had a cocktail of components capable of producing an unprecedented Heisman decision.

John VISSER
VISSER, John
Johnny 5 has left the building. Also known as "Gentleman John" to his older friends. After a lengthy illness, he is finally at peace. John Visser will always be remembered for his plethora of wild stories, his work ethic, and his generosity. In 1962 he joined the ILWU Local 502, and in 1980 joined Local 514, becoming a foreman until he retired in 1999. He enjoyed woodworking, and gardening, and many other hobbies. Of all things, what John cherished most was his family. He is survived by his brother George (Ruth), and sisters Joan (Bruce), and Margaret (Dan). His children Rob (Kerri), Lynda, Joy (Moe), and Lisa (Brian) are missing him very much, as are his grandchildren Miguel, Damian, and recent addition James. Predeceased by our mother Dorothy (nee Peterson). Dad was always there for all of us when we needed help, or just some advice. We can only hope we paid enough attention that we may continue as we must, with his voice in our ears, hand on our shoulders, guiding us.We love you Dad!

GOP challengers bash Butch Otter
Rex Rammell, Sharon Ullman attack governor's record
BOISE – Two of Idaho Gov. Butch Otter's primary election challengers lashed out at him Tuesday night, while Otter declined to participate in the debate aired live statewide on Idaho Public Television.
"I'd like to ask him why he thinks he's above having his ideas challenged by the public," said GOP challenger Rex Rammell, a veterinarian from Rexburg. "Isn't it the responsibility of the top elected official of the state of Idaho to let the people know what your ideas are? … Why didn't you show up for this?"
Sharon Ullman, a Republican Ada County commissioner, said she wished she could've asked Otter if he'll really serve a full four-year term if he's re-elected. "There's a strong rumor going around that he plans to … step down and let the lieutenant governor become governor," she declared.
In a statement issued Tuesday by his campaign, Otter repeated his contention that the debate should have included all candidates, including those not actively campaigning for the post. He also said, "I met some of my primary opponents at Lincoln Day events around the state in recent months. Each of us had ample opportunity to get voters acquainted with our issues and priorities."
Rammell and Ullman bashed Otter for proposing a gas tax increase in 2009; for failing to attract more jobs to the state; for proposing increasing counties' costs for indigent health care; and for not being hostile enough to the federal government.
"If you elect me governor, they will be asked to leave this state," Rammell said of the federal government. "I will do whatever needs to be done."
Ullman chided him for his rhetoric. "We've already had one civil war. Abraham Lincoln is known for two things, getting rid of slavery and keeping the union whole. I think keeping the union whole is a worthy goal," she said.
She added, "I think we need to fight the federal government on different terms. I think we need to team up with the other states. We do that in county government, we get together with the other counties and go to the state government if we want something changed. We work with the other states, we work with our federal representatives, we work to get other people elected when we don't like what's going on in Washington, D.C. We get different policies set, we get policies changed. That's what I've been doing in this community for nearly two decades and it works, it's successful. That's what we need to be doing, not taking up arms against our own federal government."
Rammell has been campaigning hard around the state, sponsoring free dinners, holding "10th Amendment rallies" and towing an inflatable green T-rex dinosaur behind his campaign RV, and has raised $55,000 since Jan. 1, nearly all of it from individuals in Idaho. Ullman has spent $1,800 of her own money campaigning and received only two campaign contributions, including $100 from Canyon County libertarian icon Ralph Smeed; she said she's not accepting contributions from "special interests."
"My campaign is not about money," Ullman said. She noted that with Idaho's low voter turnout in primary elections, she could win the primary if she got the same number of votes as in the last Ada County commissioner race. "It's all about voter turnout," she said.

This review is from: 5 Very Good Reasons to Punch a Dolphin in the Mouth (And Other Useful Guides) (The Oatmeal) (Paperback)
Until I read this book I didn't really have a reason to punch a dolphin in the mouth. It had always been more of a random and uncontrolled sort of response when I was within reach of one. But after reading Matthew's book, I can now justify my behavior to the dolphinarium authorities in five different ways.
Seriously, Matthew Inman's sense of humor is way off center while always ringing true. You may not like every single strip (or "guide") but even if the captions don't do it for you, the drawings themselves will crack you up.
Caution: As I write this, Amazon says that customers who bought this book also bought Garfield books. That *has* to be an inside joke. "Look inside" or go to the author's site at theoatmeal.com before you buy this solely because you like Garfield.

Obama under pressure to protect Chinese dissident
Washington: US President Barack Obama is under pressure to offer Washington`s protection to blind Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng, who has reportedly taken refuge in the American embassy in Beijing.
White House officials have stressed that Obama needed to take the step so that they could ``balance`` human rights and relations with China, The Telegraph reports.
Civil rights activist Chen Guangcheng escaped from 20 months of house arrest recently.
His alleged presence in the US embassy compound has increased tensions between Washington and Beijing ahead of bilateral talks to be held in the Chinese capital later this week.
Kurt Campbell, one of Hillary Clinton`s Assistant Secretaries of State, has arrived in Beijing, even as officials are engaged in tense negotiations about Chen`s future.
John Brennan, Obama`s counter terrorism adviser, stressed that US-China ties are ``very important``, and added that officials would have to make sure that ``appropriate balance is struck``.
Declining to confirm whether Chen was indeed inside the US embassy compound in Beijing, Brennan said he was confident President Obama and his diplomats ``will be able to find the right way forward``.
A possible compromise could be seen with Washington requesting that Chen be allowed to travel to America for medical treatment.

For NRPS & Jerry Fans,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Glendale Train (Audio CD)
So here we have the bare bones of the early NRPS live with Jerry putting in a fair old example of his pedal-steel guitar work. I imagine that this recording of the WEBN-FM live broadcast has remained buried since its broadcast in 1971 as there are certainly a few sonic problems with the sound. Nonetheless this is an interesting historical document for those interested in the band, Jerry, or early country rock music. No doubt anyone who considers purchasing this already has New Riders of the Purple Sage, but if you don't, get one!
The selection of tracks offers a good range of covers and Dawson originals, and certainly runs for a long time, with the band sounding tight and together. At the moment it is a bargain, so snap yourself a copy.
Packaging is a standard plastic box housed in a (superfluous) cardboard slip-case.

This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application 60/469,526, filed May 9, 2003, and entitled "Formation Characterization using Wellbore Logging Data," which is hereby incorporated by reference herein for all the purposes.
Not applicable.
The embodiments of the present invention relate generally to methods for characterizing a subterranean formation surrounding a wellbore. More specifically, the embodiments relate to methods for characterizing the formation using data obtained from wellbore logging.
Fluids stored in subterranean formations are contained, often at elevated pressures, within pores found within the formation rock. The removal of these fluids from subterranean formations during the production of hydrocarbons, native water, injected fluids, or steam results in a decrease of pore pressure within the formation. This decreased pore pressure leads to a lowering of mechanical support provided to the rock system and can result in closer packing of formation particles or in some cases the movement and/or removal of formation particles by the production processes.
If the formation loses enough mechanical support, portions of the formation yield and break. This is known as formation compaction. When formation compaction occurs, the portion of a wellbore through the compacted formation can be affected. Thus, it is often desirable to monitor the compaction within a producing formation and control the production processes to limit damage to the formation or wellbore. Additional value in monitoring formation compaction may be derived by providing additional wellbore lifetime and providing a prediction of the time for which a wellbore will be mechanically able to support commercial or scientific activities.
One method currently used to monitor formation compaction involves placing marker tags, normally consisting of a radioactive material, onto the casing at known intervals. These tags are typically placed on the casing before it is run into the well or into the formation before or after running the casing into the wellbore. In some applications, marker tags may be installed into an existing casing already in place in the wellbore. The intervals between the marker tags can then be monitored by sensors, such as gamma ray detectors, run into the wellbore on a downhole tool. This process is discussed in "GOM Offshore Subsidence Monitoring Project with a New Formation Compaction Monitoring Tool"; Ame de Kock, Shell Offshore Inc. New Orleans, La.; T. Johnson, Halliburton Energy Services, New Orleans, La.; T. Hagiwara, H. Zea, F. Santa Halliburton Energy Services, Houston, Tex., which is hereby incorporated by reference herein for all purposes. Although providing a direct measurement of casing deformation, which is related to and caused by formation compaction, many wells do not have the marker tags required to perform the measurement. Additionally, because the use of radioactive materials is heavily regulated, non-radioactive solutions are desirable.
It is known that formation compaction can cause damage to the casing contained within the wellbore. As formation compaction occurs, the casing is compressed. This compression can lead to changes in the casing's diameter, thickness, and roundness as well as cause large diameter bends in the casing. In extreme cases, the casing fails, thus disrupting production from the well. Thus, it is desirable to monitor casing mechanical deformation and formation compaction in order to provide early detection of formation compaction problems, allowing the reservoir management procedures to be changed accordingly. Well lifetime mechanical conditions and dynamic predictions allow optimized strategic planning for the existing well and also the best planning for replacement wells as needed.
The collection of downhole information, also referred to as logging, is realized in different ways. Logging is used to measure many different properties of the casing, wellbore, and surrounding formation. Tools to measure wellbore properties may employ techniques involving electromagnetic signals, ultrasonic signals, refracted or flexural sonic signals, nuclear radiation sources, and mechanical measurements. For example, ultrasonic imaging acquisition has been used to help determine the deformation of the well casing by transmitting ultrasonic signals into the well and analyzing their reflections. Through this ultrasonic measurement information about the wellbore, casing, cement, and formation can be determined. Techniques for using ultrasonic data to compute borehole geometry are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,638,337 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,737,277, both of which are incorporated by reference herein for all purposes.
It is also known in the art to mechanically measure the diameter, also known as the caliper, of a borehole to correct formation measurements that are sensitive to size or standoff. These corrections are necessary for accurate formation evaluation. One technique for measuring the caliper incorporates a mechanical apparatus with extending contact arms that are forced against the wall of the borehole.
Thus, there remains a need in the art for methods of characterizing a subterranean formation using data acquired during well logging activities. Therefore, the embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods, of correlating well logging data into useful data for evaluating and characterizing the formation, that seek to overcome the limitations of the prior art.
Methods for determining formation characteristics comprising establishing baseline casing conditions for a string of casing disposed within a wellbore in a formation and measuring updated casing conditions for the string of casing at a first time interval from the establishing of the baseline casing conditions. The baseline casing conditions are compared to the updated casing conditions to determine changes in the string of casing over the first time interval. These changes in the string of casing are then used to determine formation characteristics.
In one embodiment the baseline and updated casing conditions comprise geometric data taken from a plurality of depths within the string of casing. The geometric data may comprise one or more of radius, diameter, thickness, and eccentricity at a single depth within the string of casing. The formation characteristics may comprise one or more of compaction, strain, failure prediction, and permeability. In some embodiments, the method further comprises adjusting reservoir management in response to the determined formation characteristics. In certain embodiments, the casing conditions are measured by acquiring ultrasonic data including two-way travel time and amplitude of first arrival of an ultrasonic signal.
In another embodiment, a method for determining formation compaction comprises disposing an ultrasonic tool within a cased wellbore disposed within a formation and performing an ultrasonic evaluation of the casing at a plurality of depths within the wellbore. The ultrasonic evaluation produces an ultrasonic waveform response that is used to determine geometric properties of the casing. The geometric properties of the casing are used to determine formation compaction. In certain embodiments, the geometric properties of the casing can be used to determine formation strain and casing compaction, which may be related to formation permeability and used to predict failure of the wellbore.
In other embodiments, a method for determining formation compaction comprises establishing baseline values for a property of a casing string disposed within a wellbore drilled in a formation. The baseline values are determined at a plurality of depths in the wellbore. The method also comprises determining updated values for the geometric property at a plurality of depths in the wellbore and comparing the updated values to the baseline values to determine changes in the one or more geometric properties. Formation compaction can then be determined based on an established correlation between formation compaction and changes in the geometric property. In certain embodiments, the correlation is established by comparing compaction logs to geometric properties of a portion of a cased wellbore that has markers locatable by a compaction logging tool.
In one embodiment, a method allows identification and measurement of the well casing properties that have been induced from earth formation movements, commonly termed formation compaction. Additionally mechanical characteristics of the well casing can be characterized to form an independent measurement and characterized response to determine earth formation compaction from the measurements without the need for radioactive, or other marker tags, on the casing or within the earth formation. By using the measured tool responses and determining the mechanical deformation of the well casing, a continuous analysis can be performed in-situ in the wellbore to determine the extent and magnitude of formation compaction throughout the wellbore. Due to the individuality of the data acquisition and derived analysis, this method can be applied in any wellbore that has accessibility for the measuring device and an environment suitable for the measurements themselves.
Thus, the present invention comprises a combination of features and advantages that enable it to provide formation characterization data from wellbore logging data. These and various other characteristics and advantages of the preferred embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the following detailed description and by referring to the accompanying drawings.
For a more detailed understanding of the preferred embodiments, reference is made to the accompanying Figures, wherein:
In the description that follows, like parts are marked throughout the specification and drawings with the same reference numerals, respectively. The drawing figures are not necessarily to scale. Certain features of the invention may be shown exaggerated in scale or in somewhat schematic form and some details of conventional elements may not be shown in the interest of clarity and conciseness. The present invention is susceptible to embodiments of different forms. There are shown in the drawings, and herein will be described in detail, specific embodiments of the present invention with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered an exemplification of the principles of the invention, and is not intended to limit the invention to that illustrated and described herein. It is to be fully recognized that the different teachings of the embodiments discussed below may be employed separately or in any suitable combination to produce the desired results.

In some embodiments, the method may rely on a study well that is fitted with casing markers, or other type of pre-installed compaction determination apparatus, that serves as a reference in determining the relationships between casing conditions and formation characteristics. Because this study well would be located in the same formation and have a similar construction the relationships observed in the study well could be correlated to other wells in the same field. Similarly, within one particular well, measurements and relationships determined in one particular section of the well may be used as a reference in analyzing other portions of the same well.
One important aspect to method 10 is identifying a correlation between changes in casing conditions and certain formation characteristics that cause stress and deformation in the casing. For example, formation compaction can cause changes in the diameter of the casing in the region of compaction. Because the stresses created in the casing can cause measurable changes in the casing itself, embodiments of the present invention seek to characterize and evaluate formation characteristics using casing and other wellbore evaluation logging tools currently being used. The preferred embodiments can also be utilized in existing wellbores that do not have historical data or existing monitoring systems, such as casing mounted radioactive tags.
The measured mechanical properties of the casing might be acquired at a time when some of the deformations may have taken place prior to the first measurement in the well. In other words, a baseline may typically be established at the time the casing is placed in the well, but a baseline may also reference a time weeks, months or years after placement of casing in the well. Whether method 10 is utilized in a newly cased well or in an existing well, the initial step of establishing baseline casing conditions 20 is important. These baseline conditions may be established at any point during the life of the well, whether at initial construction or at some point mid-life of the well.
Referring now to
Formation compaction logs 21 may be taken by a tool that tracks the position of radioactive tags that are mounted to the casing. One such tool is the Formation Compaction Monitoring Tool (FCMT) produced by Halliburton. The radioactive tags are generally installed at selected intervals on the outside of the casing as it is installed in the wellbore. The tags are often installed at about ten foot intervals but may be installed at greater or lesser intervals as desired. In many wells only a portion of the casing has radioactive tags installed. As a tool is lowered into the wellbore, it senses the radioactivity of the tags to determine the vertical spacing between tags. Compaction may be indicated where the vertical distance between tags changes over a period of time.
Casing inspection logs 22 seek to determine a profile of casing conditions, including such data as radius, diameter, eccentricity, wall thickness, and cement evaluation. In one embodiment, a circumferential acoustic scanning tool can be used in both an imaging and cased hole mode to evaluate the casing. One tool suitable for this type of evaluation is the ultrasonic CAST-V™ tool, manufactured by Halliburton. Alternate embodiments may include providing for combined high resolution imaging simultaneously with interior caliper and casing wall thickness data acquisition using, in part or in whole, electromagnetic, ultrasonic, refracted sonic, flexural sonic, nuclear and mechanical measurements and characterized responses.
Other types of tools that may be used to collect casing or wellbore data include, but are not limited to, refracted sonic tools (CBL—cement bond), flexural and refracted sonic tools (WaveSonic), pulse echo array ultrasonic tools (PET), flux and eddy current tools (PIT), phase thickness tools (METG), pulsed neutron/elemental yield tools (RMT-E, PSGT, and TMD-L), rotating gamma ray tools (Rota Scan), rotating spectral gamma ray tools (Rota Scan-S), and multi-armed mechanical calipers (MIT). Additional existing and/or future developed measurement systems and associated relationships derived from the measured data may be used to understand changes in the earth environment around the well.
Another method for establishing baseline casing conditions 20 is using open hole logs 23 that are taken before the casing is installed in the wellbore. Open hole logs 23 and formation studies 24 can be used to identify areas of expected compaction, provide studies of permeability, rock strength, and fluid saturation in various strata of the formation. Both open hole logs 23 and formation studies 24 may prove useful in wellbore modeling 25 to establish baseline casing conditions 20. Wellbore modeling 25 may include using a pre-installation geometric profile of the casing in conjunction with expected wellbore stresses to predict baseline casing conditions 20. The wellbore stresses may include hydrostatic effects, confining stress effects, thermal effects, and installation forces, all of which may change the geometric profile of the casing.
Once baseline casing conditions 20 have been established, the well is normally produced for a certain amount of time. During this production phase, it may be helpful to monitor reservoir or well management processes in order to track the types of stresses that the wellbore may be incurring. For example, it may be desired to monitor the rates, volumes, and pressures of fluids produced from, or injected into, the well or reservoir. These and other activities both on a certain well and within the reservoir, field, layer, or zone may also have effects on casing stress and may be useful to monitor.
Once it becomes desirable to evaluate the condition of the producing well, updated casing conditions 40 can be measured. If the well has radioactive tags (or other compaction indicators), formation compaction log 42 can be run to provide a direct determination of compaction. In other regions of the well, as well as wells not having radioactive tags, inspection log 44 can be performed to provide an updated profile of casing conditions. Inspection log 44 is also preferably run in the regions equipped with radioactive tags in order to help establish a correlation between the compaction and changes in the casing conditions. As with inspection log 22 that may be used to establish baseline casing conditions 20, inspection log 44 seeks to determine a profile of casing conditions, including such data as diameter, eccentricity, wall thickness, and cement evaluation by any of a variety of inspection techniques.
Once updated casing conditions 40 have been established, any changes between the baseline casing conditions 20 and the updated casing conditions 40 can be identified. These changes in casing conditions can indicate one or more formation characteristics 50. Among the formation characteristics that can be determined, or inferred directly, are compaction 52, strain 54, and permeability 56. These conditions, as well as casing conditions, can be used to evaluate the wellbore for failure prediction 58.
Formation characteristics 50 can then be used by an operator to adjust the reservoir and/or well management process 60 to optimize production from the well or a group of wells. For example, an operator can take remedial action to extend the life of a well or plan for sidetrack wells or other intervention. After another period of production 30, additional updated casing conditions 40 can be measured and analyzed to determine new formation characteristics 50.

Ultrasonic signals are transmitted from the tool and reflect off of the casing and surrounding formation. The received ultrasonic signals provide an ultrasonic waveform response that can be analyzed to provide geometrical information about the casing and cement. For example, the two-way travel time of the ultrasonic signals indicates the distance from the tool to the inside of the casing and the frequency of the response and amplitude of first arrival can be used to determine the thickness of the casing and the strain in the casing wall. The ultrasonic tool can also be used to evaluate the casing-cement interface and provide for an evaluation of the cement.
Once the ultrasonic data is acquired, it is then corrected for tool position 220. Because the tool is not necessarily centered within the casing, the received signals are evaluated and corrected for the position of the tool in the casing. One method of correcting for tool position the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) Paper #71399, entitled "Advanced Ultrasonic Scanning Tool and Evaluation Methods Improve and Standardize Casing Inspection," by G. Frisch, SPE, and B. Mandal, SPE, Halliburton Energy Services, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein for all purposes.
In the method described therein, the transit time or to and from the casing is obtained for at least five separate ultrasonic signals using a rotational ultrasonic transducer. The circumferential distances between the tool center and the borehole wall are calculated using the fluid travel velocity and unwanted distance measurements that are far from the average are discarded. A least square fit is then used to determine five co-coefficients (ao, bo, co, do, and eo) and a best-fit ellipse Q (φ), where the equation of the ellipse is as follows.
This equation may be simplified to express it in terms of the five unknowns (ao, bo, co, do, and eo) and as a quadratic of r:
The orientation of the hole ellipse (θ) may determined based on Q (φ) by finding the angle at which major axis is at a maximum. Using the major axis direction (θ) and at φ=θ, Q (φ)−Q (φ+π) represents the length of major axis and at φ=θ+π/2: Q (φ)−Q (θ+π) refers the length of minor axis. Using major axis location and the lengths will determine the hole center (X, Y). From the hole center location, actual transit time can be calculated to correct tool eccentricity.
Once corrected for tool position, the signals can then be examined 230 to identify any defects or damage to the casing and to make sure the data is within acceptable ranges. Anomalies or erroneous data can then be eliminated before the casing average radius and cross-sectional area are calculated 240. An established correlation can then be applied 250 to the cross-sectional area to identify zones of formation compaction. Method 200 can also be applied to other formation characteristics that correlate to casing conditions, such as strain and permeability, and can use other measured casing conditions, such as radius, eccentricity, and thickness.

Certain embodiments may provide measurement and analysis for reservoir dynamic rock property modeling, either separate from or in coordination with the prior art methods. This modeling could be used to predict the 1) sanding potential of a reservoir over time with pressure decline and associated formation compaction, 2) mechanical failure of the well construction within a reservoir over time with pressure decline and associated formation compaction, 3) dynamic geomechanical analysis and dynamic well path placement design, 4) buckling failure of the well casing within a reservoir over time with formation compaction, 5) visualization of the casing damage due to compaction, and 6) near wellbore environment within a reservoir over time with formation compaction.
Select embodiments may provide for multiple transducer downhole tool designs measuring casing properties in an array form in order to enhance detectable casing properties, including but not limited to earth formation compaction. Other embodiments may provide for refracted waveform analysis based on processing of the acquired waveforms during monitor surveillance runs referencing, or combined with, baseline acquisitions. Still other embodiments may provide for ACE™ processed results during monitor surveillance runs referencing, or combined with, baseline acquisitions. Some embodiments may provide for cross dipole, oriented rotating refracted, and oriented rotating flexural sonic oriented receiver responses in the spirit of reservoir dynamic anisotropy and effects on same from the forces of formation compaction.
Certain embodiments may provide for oriented rotating nuclear tool responses, including but not limited to silicon yields, iron yields, natural gamma ray detection, spectral gamma ray detection, and the dynamic physical properties caused by exposure to earth formation compaction. For these embodiments, sigma can be derived from spectral analysis of pulsed neutron devices and the dynamic physical properties caused by exposure to earth formation compaction. One potential application would be multiple radioactive isotopes place within the earth formation and on the casing to measure each dynamic movement system over a period of time in a surveillance program.

Monico vandal to serve 9 months in county jail
Submitted: 12/10/2013
Story By Shardaa Gray
- It's been almost a year since 14 homes and businesses were vandalized in the town of Monico.
The damage three teenagers caused was roughly $100,000.
One of those teens learned his punishment today.
"I would like to say that I am sorry and I do want to change. Become a better part of society." said 18-year-old Anthony Briggs.
Briggs along with two other teenagers vandalized homes and businesses in Monico.
He was found guilty ten of 14 charges.
Today he apologized for his wrong doing.
But District Attorney Steve Michlig didn't believe he took full responsibility for his actions.
"There were 14 break-ins for which he says he was involved in four or five of them. I don't think that's true. " Michlig said.
In the presentencing, Briggs said 17-year-old Jeffrey Stefonik peer-pressured him to do the break-ins.
"He was concerned that Stefonik would call in law enforcement if he didn't continue breaking into houses," said Michlig.
"Not only does he fail to accept responsibility, but he offers an explanation which is at best flimsy."
Despite that, his defense attorney says he's been getting his act together.
"He has been significantly engaged in a high school life. Here he is in court." Briggs Defense Attorney, John Voorhees said.
None of the victims were there in court today, but they did send letters expressing how these damages have affected them.
We visited Brian Wierzbicki in January hours after he found the damages to his home.
"While these are property crimes, I think that it's fair to say that for certainly the Wierzbicki family, life will never be the same." Michlig said.
Judge Michael Bloom didn't feel it was necessary Briggs should serve his time in the Wisconsin state prison system.
But he did think it was necessary for a different form of punishment.
"I'm not going to impose any jail time as a condition of probation," Bloom said.
"However on the two theft counts, I'm going to impose straight sentences of nine months in the county jail on each count."
Briggs will serve five years of probation after his time in jail.

Submitted: 06/29/2016
- Health workers want to stop the spread of an infectious disease in the Shawano area.
The Shawano-Menominee County Health Department is investigating an outbreak of a disease called shigella.
The disease causes flu-like symptoms.
It's been connected to several day care centers in Shawano and Hillcrest Primary School.
Health officers say shigella is very contagious.
Those who become ill should stay home to avoid spreading it.
The disease usually lasts five to seven days.
Washing hands and other hygiene measures can help stop its spread.

Supreme Court rejects abortion appeal from Wisconsin
Submitted: 06/28/2016
- The United States Supreme Court Tuesday formally rejected an appeal from Wisconsin which sought to put restrictions doctors working at abortion clinics.
The Justices on Tuesday refused to hear appeals from both Wisconsin and Mississippi.
They involved laws that would have required doctors who perform abortions at clinics to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals.
The orders follow Monday's decision in which the court struck down a similar provision in Texas.
Federal appeals courts in Chicago and New Orleans earlier ruled against the states.
Mississippi's law would have closed the lone abortion clinic in the state, in Jackson.

Camp LeFeber to stay open for another season
Submitted: 06/28/2016
Play Video
- This time last year, staff at Camp LeFeber in Laona thought they weren't going to have another season. The Boy Scout Camp was set to close last summer, but with the help of one group and people in the community, it'll stay open this year and perhaps for years to come.
Camper Erik Norlock has made the trip from Whitefish Bay to Camp LeFeber in Laona since he finished 5th grade.
"I care a lot about every single scout that we have here," said Norlock. "And being about to do it in such an amazing place is really something that touches home for me."
But the now high school graduate and hundreds more boy scouts who travel to the camp every year almost didn't have a place to go back to.

Mark Shuttleworth: Ibex design
With Intrepid on track to hit the wires today I thought I'd blog a little on the process we followed in designing the new user switcher, presence manager and session management experience, and lessons learned along the way. Ted has been blogging about the work he did, and it's been mentioned in a couple of different forums (briefly earning the memorable title "the new hotness"), but since it's one of the first pieces of work to go through the user experience design process within Canonical I thought it would be interesting to write it up.
New FUSA applet allows you to mange your presence setting, as well as switch to a guest or other user, and logout.
In one of the first user experience sessions, we looked in more detail at the way people "stop working". We thought it interesting to try and group those actions together in a way which would feel natural to users.
We have already done some work in Ubuntu around this - for a long time we have had a button in the top-right corner of the panel which brought up a system modal dialog that gave you the usual "end your session" options of logout, restart, shutdown, hibernate, suspend and switch user. That patch was always a bit controversial and had not been accepted upstream, so we looked at ways to solve the problem differently.

Review: Linux Mint 18 (Sarah)
If you were looking to jump the Ubuntu ship completely, then we recommend taking a look at our recent Review of Fedora 24. It's equally as good as Mint 18 and equally worthy of your consideration. Between Linux Mint 18 and Fedora 24, we reckon it's exciting times in the Linux world. With the exception and onset of the boring world of vanilla Ubuntu releases, Linux feels reinvigorated and fresh once again. Jump on board, because it can only get better from here.

Great product and excellent customer service. Particular thanks to James who was fabulously helpful from beginning to end, ensuring that the goods were received on time for our restaurant opening. We are thrilled with the tables and chairs. They are a real asset to the restaurant and they look fantastic. I'd certainly check the website next time I'm designing a space to see if they can help me out. A pleasure to do business with. Thank you.
