Established in 1979 the company began developing a variety of different products that were well thought out, researched, and market tested. The most successful products were found to be in the water well industry. The company made a decision to put all their energy and product development into this market place and began promoting the products heavily in the drilling industry. The owner chose to keep the business small and therefore kept their product factory direct, choosing not to go with a distribution network. This planning kept the price down, the business more personal, and enabled them to offer 100% support to customers at all times. Instead of a Distribution Network, the company would compensate a Distributor with a finder's fee. The Distributors liked this idea because they didn't have to maintain an inventory of expensive products and the factory could do the training and direct shipping, saving the customer more money. The company has attended trade shows, advertised in trade publications, sent direct mailings, produced product releases, and maintains an email marketing campaign. The products and accessories can be viewed at www.groutking.com.

I've seen other 40th birthday questions, but not in relation to my specifics; can you help?
My 40th bday is on New Year's day....but the bf and I don't like crowds. Also, we'll only have a 4 day weekend, and we have to fly out of San Francisco.
My initial ideas:
-Costa Rica
-Buenos Aires
-Key West
-St. John
I know those are wide-ranging choices, but they interest me. Anyone want to weigh in? We like various combinations of: beaches, hiking, food, wine, beer, live music... (I know...so does everyone!). The only thing we really don't like: big New Yrs crowds/typical celebrations.
What do you think? Thanks in advance for your help!

It sounds like you want something more exotic than most U.S. destinations and somewhere warm. However, if you are limited to a 4-day weekend, I think you'd be insane to even consider Buenos Aires or Spain. You'd be spending over 25% of your entire weekend on the flight to either destination.
Sadly, the same is true for St. John. You'd have to fly overnight to Miami or San Juan and then take another flight to St. Thomas, and then a short ferry. This trip would take a minimum of 15 hours. Not so bad going since you'd make the longest flight overnight, but that's not an option returning. You'd spend your entire last day of vacation on a plane.
Key West might be just as difficult and it's not really lacking in crowds.
Here's what I'd suggest. Of the places you've mentioned, Costa Rica and Austin might be the two best choices. You'll still likely have to do a connecting flight to either one.
If I were making the recommendation, I'd say start by considering Kauai. It's a shorter hop from SFO and warm. Mexico is another natural destination for you, and the weather in Puerto Vallarta or Cabo San Lucas would be fairly moderate; plus, there are several smaller towns to which you can escape in the immediate area.
There must be other attractive places you can fly nonstop from SFO, and those are the ones you should look at first. Just not to Europe. There are great destinations in South America that are much closer than Buenos Aires ... Cartagena in Colombia or Lima might be possibilities, though I'm not sure about connections to South America from SFO.
I also would consider driving. There are some great places that are within 250 miles of San Francisco. Even if you just escaped to Big Sur, you might find the isolation you are looking for.

It's not as exotic as your other suggestions, but what about Vancouver - just a few hours north of San Francisco? It won't be warm, but you'll probably see some stunning scenery, have a chance to ski, kayak, eat great food, go to a New Year's Eve party without huge crowds, take a float plane to Victoria or somewhere remote on Vancouver Island, etc.

Hi, thanks for the replies...
I really like the Vancouver idea, frogoutofwater. I've never been there & we've wanted to go sometime. Cold for sure, but gorgeous.
Doug, you're right that some of my choices would be appallingly long flights in relation to how much time we have. We've been fortunate enough to go to Hawaii a lot & so don't want to go there, & Mexico is more my bf's kind of 40th. We've been wanting to go to Big Sur, but in fall.
I'll ck out the direct flights from SF.
Thanks again for your suggestions! -V

valerie05 - It will be winter in Vancouver, but it won't necessrily be "cold for sure". I grew up in the region and go home for Christmas every other year. Having lived in colder parts of Canada, Vancouver feels balmy. That said, the weather can be unpredictable. It could be as warm as the high 40s, but might drop to a few degrees below 0. Note that one adventure you could add to your trip (not cheap) is to take take a small plane to somewhere interesting in Vancouver Island (e.g. Tofino). You don't really have the time to drive there, so flying up would be your best option. If you don't like crowds, maybe the best place to spend your birthday and watch the New Year arrive is in a cabin overlooking the wild Pacific.

How about San Miguel de Allende? Never been, but it's on the list!

You mentioned going to spain.. barcelona is absolutely beautiful and new years is not known to be crowded and crazy - definitely not your typical new years festivities. I know you are under heavy time constraint, but if you manage to get some extra time off, it would be an amazing experience. http://whereareyougoin.wordpress.com/

AccuWeather.com reports a complex and multi-faceted winter storm will take shape across Texas on Saturday, and then slowly move through the Southeast and mid-Atlantic Sunday into Monday.
While there are many aspects to this storm that are not known, there are some that are still uncertain, such as how far north the snow and ice actually gets and how much of it falls.
A strong jet stream disturbance will dive across the Four Corners region and eject into Texas on Saturday. As warm and dry air clashes with warm and humid air streaming from the Gulf of Mexico, showers and thunderstorms will blossom over eastern Texas, including Dallas and Houston.
The biggest threats with these storms will be damaging wind gusts to 60 mph and hail as large as quarters or golf balls, but an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out either.
As this storm system moves eastward Saturday night, a swath of strong to severe thunderstorms will cut across Louisiana and Mississippi, and then across Alabama, Georgia and the Florida Panhandle on Sunday.
In addition to damaging winds, hail and the threat for an isolated tornado, very heavy, potentially flooding, rain will also become a concern.
It looks as though the best chance for snow and ice will be from far eastern Kansas eastward into the Ohio Valley, mid-Atlantic and eastern New England.
Snow and ice should break out across eastern Kansas and Missouri Sunday and then end rather quickly by Sunday evening. Farther east, snow and ice will likely linger through Sunday night across the Ohio Valley. It will not be until Monday that snow and ice arrive in the mid-Atlantic and New England.
For now, anyone planning to travel Sunday and Monday can expect big-time delays, especially at the airports.
For those living from Texas to Georgia, now is a good time to brush up on your severe weather terminology.
Current technology has advanced enough over recent years to provide ample alert of the potential for severe weather and the approach of localized severe storms. Be sure to understand the difference between a watch and a warning. A watch means that an area is being monitored for dangerous weather. A warning means that dangerous weather is imminent. When a warning is issued, there may be too little time to travel across town or across a county to escape the storm.
Keep in mind that lightning is one of Mother Nature's most dangerous killers. If you can hear thunder, you are close enough to the storm to be struck by lightning, even if the sun is still shining.

It's a mystery why so many in the media accept as gospel Hamas-supplied figures on the number of civilians killed in the recent war. Hamas claims that of the more than 1800 Palestinians killed close to 90% were civilians. Israel, on the other hand, says that close to half of them were combatants. The objective facts support a number much closer to Israel's than to Hamas'. Even human rights group antagonistic to Israel acknowledge, according to a New York Times report, that Hamas probably counts among the "civilians killed by Israel" the following groups: Palestinians killed by Hamas as collaborators; Palestinians killed through domestic violence; Palestinians killed by errant Hamas rockets or mortars; and Palestinians who died naturally during the conflict. I wonder if Hamas also included the reported 162 children who died while performing child slave labor in building their terror tunnels. Hamas also defines combatants to include only armed fighters who were killed while fighting Israelis. They exclude Hamas supporters who build tunnels, who allow their homes to be used to store and fire rockets, Hamas policemen, members of the Hamas political wing and others who work hand in hand with the armed terrorists.Several years ago I came up with a concept which I call, the "continuum of civilianality"—an inelegant phrase that is intended to convey the reality that who is a civilian and who is a combatant is often a matter of degree. Clearly every child below the age in which he or she is capable of assisting Hamas is a civilian. Clearly every Hamas fighter who fires rockets, bears arms, or operates in the tunnels is a combatant. Between these extremes lie a wide range of people, some of whom are closer to the civilian end, many of whom who are closer to the combatant end. The law of war has not established a clear line between combatants and civilians, especially in the context of urban warfare where people carry guns at night and bake bread during the day, or fire rockets during the day and go back home to sleep with their families at night. (Interestingly the Israeli Supreme Court has tried to devise a functional definition of combatants in the murky context of urban guerilla warfare.) Data published by the New York Times strongly suggests that a very large number— perhaps a majority—of those killed are closer to the combatant end of the continuum than to the civilian end. First of all, the vast majority of those killed have been male rather than female. In an Islamic society, males are far more likely to be combatants than females. Second, most of those killed are within the age range (15-40) that are likely to be combatants. The vast majority of these are male as well. The number of people over 60 who have been killed is infinitesimal. The number of children below the age of 15 is also relatively small, although their pictures have been shown more frequently than others. In other words, the genders and ages of those killed are not representative of the general population of Gaza. It is far more representative of the genders and ages of combatants. These data strongly suggest that a very large percentage of Palestinians killed are on the combatant side of the continuum. They also prove, as if any proof were necessary to unbiased eyes, that Israel did not target civilians randomly. If it had, the dead would be representative of the Gaza population in general, rather than of the subgroups most closely identified with combatants. The media should immediately stop using Hamas-approved statistics, which in the past have proved to be extremely unreliable. Instead, they should try to document, independently, the nature of each person killed and describe their age, gender, occupation, affiliation with Hamas and other objective factors relevant to their status as a combatant, non-combatant or someone in the middle. It is lazy and dangerous for the media to rely on Hamas-approved propaganda figures. In fact, when the infamous Goldstone Report falsely stated that the vast majority of people killed in Operation Cast Lead were civilians and not Hamas fighters, many in Gaza complained to Hamas. They accused Hamas of cowardness for allowing so many civilians to be killed while protecting their own fighters. As a result of these complaints, Hamas was forced to tell the truth: namely that many more of those killed were actually Hamas fighters or armed policemen. It is likely that Hamas will make a similar "correction" with regard to this conflict. But that correction will not be covered by the media, as the prior correction was not.The headline—"Most of those killed by Israel were children, women and the elderly"— will continue to be the conventional wisdom, despite its factual falsity. Unless it is corrected, Hamas will continue with its "dead baby strategy" and more people on both sides will die.

PETA will launch a porn web site to fight animal cruelty
Plan criticised by womens' rights groups
ANIMAL RIGHTS GROUP People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is launching a pronographic web site in an effort to raise awareness of the plight of animals.
The group's controversial plans involve an .xxx web site featuring pornographic images of women, along with images and videos of animals being mistreated, which might cause some mixed feelings for any would-be visitors.
The idea is to entice people with pornographic images and to then shock them with material showing cruelty to animals in an effort to make them think about what they eat and the process it goes through before ending up on their plates.
The web site will also include vegetarian and vegan starter kits and recipes, which might seem a little out place next to the pictures of nude women and mistreated animals.
"We're hoping to reach a whole new audience of people, some of whom will be shocked by graphic images that maybe they didn't anticipate seeing when they went to the PETA triple-X site," said Lindsay Rajt, associate director of campaigns at PETA, according to Reuters.
PETA has earned some criticism for this campaign, however, particularly from feminist groups, many of whom argue that PETA is exploiting women to get its point across about animal welfare, particularly given that the pornographic images will not feature any men.
"PETA is extremely disingenuous," said Jennifer Pozner, executive director of Women In Media & News. "They have consistently used active sexism as their marketing strategy to garner attention. Their use of sexism has gotten more extreme and more degrading."
Rajt disagrees with this view, arguing that all of the women who are participating in the web site chose to do so and that it would be more misogynistic for PETA to tell them how they should express themselves or what they should or should not do with their bodies.
It seems that PETA is well aware of how controversial this campaign is and, in fact, that this is the exact reason it decided to employ it, as it has certainly brought the group and its message into the media spotlight. The question, of course, is whether people will be thinking about the mistreated animals or the naked women. Or getting them mixed up. µ

Sequestration and gridlock are terms that, so far locally, create none of the burdensome political baggage we are seeing in Washington, D.C.
Perhaps not all politics are local, but certainly the most effective ones are.
In Hood River County the individual can have an impact on local political matters, and the May 21 Special Districts ballot displays the potential for local residents stepping up and making a significant difference.
Turn to page A1 for details on filing for local offices.
This spring, every Special District in the county will have one or more positions up for vote, giving the average citizen a great opportunity to get involved, and know that their efforts will carry weight.
Special districts are taxing districts serving localized needs or specific services. In most cases the jurisdictions include just a portion of the county, and can even be a neighborhood governing group, in the case of sanitation and fire districts, for example.
Others, such as school, transportation and parks boards, cover the entire county.
In every case, the individual can have their say on policy and budget decisions, and help determine the future course of how important services are provided in local communities.
In some cases, a new majority could be voted into office. Case in point is the Hood River County School Board, where four of seven seats are up for grabs.
The Port of Hood River has three of five positions open, as does the Hood River Library District.
Moreover, many of these taxing bodies are facing major decisions on budgeting services, changes in zoning or use of land, projects to spur development, future bonding and taxing measures, new avenues of governmental cooperation, and other vital decisions.
It's rarely easy, and sometimes difficult and contentious work, but holding local public office is one of the best ways one can serve the community. With special districts the elected are never more than a few miles and a local phone call away from their constituents.
Meetings are held in schools, fire halls, community rooms, and, while impromptu, in the grocery aisles.
In local politics, you've got to be prepared to be buttonholed in the bread aisle, but that is the beauty of it.

With the win Rice remained in sole possession of first place in the C-USA standings at 19-7 in the league. The Owls held their one-game lead over UAB (18-8 in conference) with now just four C-USA games remaining in the regular season schedule.
UTSA was so quick to score it seemed as though the contest began with Rice at 1-0 deficit. Roadrunner right fielder John Wellborn led off the bottom of the first inning with a solo home run, but the advantage didn't last long.
Rice stormed back with three runs in the top of the second. Skyler Ewing led off with a base hit and Kirby Taylor and Connor Teykl hit back-to-back doubles before a UTSA fielding error helped give the Owls a 3-1 lead. The teams exchanged runs in the fifth, but two more Owl doubles by Leon Byrd and Keenan Cook in the sixth paved the way to a 6-2 margin.
The Roadrunners fought back for a run in the bottom of the eighth to make it 6-3. Rice, however, batted around to explode for five runs in the top of the ninth and pull away in the 11-3 final. Every Owl hitter finished with at least one hit in the 13-hit attack and six players tallied a total of seven doubles.
The offensive outburst almost overshadowed another quality start on the mound by sophomore left-hander Blake Fox. Fox worked a total of 6.2 innings where he allowed just two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one. The Houston native improved his season record to 10-0 in 12 starts. Fox also remained undefeated in his collegiate career, improving to a perfect 16-0 dating back to his freshman year in 2013.
The right-handed relief duo of Matt Ditman and Ryan McCarthy worked the final 2.2 frames where they combined for a total of four strikeouts.
The Owls improved to 33-16 overall. UTSA dropped to 31-20 on the season and 15-11 in conference. The weekend series concludes on Sunday. First pitch at Roadrunner Field is set for 1 pm.

New film chronicles the life death and resurrection of historic ship.
Once Upon A Nuclear Ship, a new documentary by filmmaker Thomas Michael Conner, tells the story of the NS Savannah the world's only nuclear powered merchant ship that was once the diamond in the crown of the US merchant fleet.
Imagined by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1955 and built by the New York Shipbuilding Corp in Camden NJ from 1957 to 1962, the Savannah sailed the oceans of the world for 9 years before being taken out of service in 1971. In her brief lifetime she visited 77 ports of call hosting 1.5 million visitors and proved that a nuclear powered merchant ship carrying cargo and passengers was a viable option to smokestacks spewing soot and other contaminants into the air and laid the groundwork for a future that never came to be.
It's a story best told by the men who "were there when it happened" and although many of these pioneering seamen have sailed into the sunset, Conner tracked down some key players and let them tell the story in their own words. It's a story he too knows well because he was a member of the health physics (radiation protection) staff and was there from the day the reactor split it's first atom then sailed on the ship until the end of 1964. The NS Savannah was the only merchant ship requiring a special department for the assessment of radiological hazards.
Once Upon A Nuclear Ship follows the Savannah through all of her trials and tribulations from the keel laying to her decommissioning and abandonment to her resurrection in 2006.
Today, the NS Savannah sits beside a dock in Baltimore MD while a small group of passionate people led by Erhard Kohler and Jon Stouky of the US Maritime Administration are busy preserving the history and technological know how that produced the Savannah in the first place. Stouky like Conner was involved with the Savannah since the New York Ship days in Camden and is currently the project's Nuclear Advisor. Future plans include using the ship as a Maritime Museum.
Once Upon A Nuclear Ship is being released on DVD through TCL Communications, Inc and is available on it's own website http://nssavannahdocumentary.com. Future plans include making it available via download or streaming.

Analox Sensor Technology has launched a new oxygen monitor, ideal for operation at partial pressure.
The HYP O2 provides fast and accurate monitoring of oxygen (O2) content, and can operate at pressure from 0.8 to 60 bar. This versatile new monitor is ideal for use in diving bells, hyperbaric chambers, hyperbaric lifeboats and submarines.
Despite being only 200g in weight, the HYP O2 is robust, and its compact design means it fits easily into confined spaces. The large display ensures it is easy to read.
Mark Lewis, managing director of Analox Sensor Technology, commented: "We continue to develop our product range to meet the needs of the commercial diving industry. The new HYP O2 provides accurate measurement of oxygen content at partial pressure, and is light and robust so can be moved easily to where it is required. This small piece of equipment can provide essential information to ensure continued safe operation."
