Frustrated in Williston
May 5, 2013
Troy Johnson, Williston Did Minot just get a tax adjustment like Williston? My lot value just went up 77 percent and my house value just went up 12.7 percent. That's an 89....
"Keep it local". Well I won't pay sales tax unless, I need to. I will drive to Montana to get major supplies. I can go to Costco in Billings and pick up 6 months of home and vehicle supplies. In another 6 months go restock. We had our chance to vote, and blew it.

Really Jack? Is that what you think? How very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Unfortunately -- we're not all moving forward. This backward state is quickly moving toward the grave.
AP reports -- the suicide rate among middle-aged North Dakotans rose by 70 percent in a decade, one of the sharpest increases in the nation.

I LOVE how the 1st Amendment to the CONSTITUTION of the US if all about FREE SPEECH!!! I also LOVE how the Minot Daily News...who by the way, is a part of the 1st Amendment, gets to delete the comments of whomever they choose!!
As you can see, Dusty is going off on a tirad on me, because THERE ARE 9 COMMENTS TOWARDS ME, yeah, count them...NINE!!!!! But none of MY comments are there...hhmmmm??? Wonder where my comments went?? (poof)
I posted 5 comments in this thread...3 of them were about the topic, and what it's REALLY like out here in the middle of the Bakken, and the last 2 were about MDN deleting my comments.
All of you who think that "Obama's coming for yer guns" and wail and whine about the 2nd amendment, need to remember there is a reason for the 1st amendment is FIRST!!!!!!!

I took a break from getting some of my pre-seeding work done, it takes a lot of labor to plant all the peas we need at the Free Lunch Counter Café. And to plant them on our sustainable organic farm. And this year we are having so much problems with the cold, late spring effects of global warming. What to do....
But I must tell Troy that in order to move forword, we all must sacrifice a little more, we must be "willing to pay more". All in order to get the government services we all want and so deservedly need. I hope we can change to come together to agree we must move forword as a community. We did not build this alone....Votes for Gifts.....

Just in case you're not "in" on the joke
3 comments
The Funny thing is some fans want coaches fired others are not sure and still others say we need continuity and can't keep firing management.....
For all you babies who are short sighted and can't seem to remember how bad this team was just 3 years ago. Let me request you look back and remember how you felt.
As of now I can honestly say they are a BETTER TEAM TODAY than 3 years ago. Not perfect but better and full of youth and a few talented people on both sides of the ball.
So why fire anybody? Why not keep in mind they have been rebuilding and we are in year 3 of that process. Did they do everything Perfect? No. But STILL I can say I am happy with the direction this team is going and I am looking forward to the off season moves and next season.
So quit whining....I am sick of you crybabies!!!!
Normally I am 100% on board with the same attitude you have. I rarely bad mouth our coaches in Miami and even with this staff, I think they are great people and that there is potential for greatness at some point.
However - the poor preparation during preseason year after year offensively has really left me numb. As an Offensive Coordinator myself (26 years) Ifind it sickening that we repeat the same weak plan and expect different results.
We throw routes consistently that have the receiver either running out of bounds at the catch or coming back to the QB play after play. We have no big plays because we emphasize routes that have no YAC potential. Our drafts have been questionable (other than Jake Long and V. Davis) and our offensive gamep lans have been "bad" far too often. We get out-coached, and as a fan I can't accept that notion.
There is a part of me that is glad Sparano got another chance to fix this mess, but if he falls back into the same ultra conservative nonsense it won't be enough this time to just punish the OC.
I'm rooting for him and the Fins. I love this organization... but enough is enough of this sick lack of production on offense.
I too am frustrated. But they did make some of the changes I feel are needed. The OC and QB Coaches are gone. (Thank God!)
I really want to see if Henne can be redeemed, can we be aggressive on BOTH sides of the Ball.
I would rather Miami play to win on both sides of the ball rather than rely on one side to win the game, by playing "NOT TO LOSE" on the offensive side of the ball. If you have low expectations and lack confidence in the Offense how will they ever improve?
Stop harassing Henne let him make mistakes, let him also take risk. Good things can happen if you just let him play and have fun.
Stop deferring the ball when we win the toss. Show some confidence in our offense.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AmberMarie Even nicer in person! I am thrilled with this globe. It looks expensive and was even bigger than I expected! Shipping was fast and accurate. LOVE world market!! February 18, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by DC33 Beautiful Globe, flawed, but great Customer Service I purchased this globe as a birthday gift for my husband. Although the globe itself was flawed, it's made of paper and was peeling at the equator, it definitely met my expectation as far as value and beauty. I took a chance and reordered it, and spoke with the customer service department via phone and email. They were very helpful, and even credited me the shipping the second time around. I haven't received my replacement globe yet, but with customer service this great, I expect it to be right the second time around. March 4, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Cutch22 Phony Tripod The globe itself is ok, but the tripod is completely fake. Take a close-up look at the legs of the tripod and you'll notice the "metal" parts are just wood painted gold. The legs are very cheap and don't even extend. Each leg is just a single piece of painted wood. December 23, 2013

A lawsuit was filed by four men against Alta for running its lifts, grooming its slopes and opening daily for skiers . . . free of snowboarders.
The four men—Rick Alden, Drew Hicken, Richard Varga and Bjorn Leines—armed with snowboards, went challenge Alta's resolve. They knew what would happen. They wanted it to happen. They were hoping to be turned away.
Fact is, Alta is open to snowboarders. They're welcome to hike the slopes before the resort opens and after it closes. What Alden and the others want, however, is for Alta to make life easier by hauling them up the mountain by lifts Alta paid for and pays all expenses to operate, maintain and staff with money paid by skiers who have purchased passes over the past 75 years.
No rational reason for banning snowboarding on Alta's slopes, says the suit. It also says, "The only difference between (skiing and snowboarding) is the orientation of a person's feet on the skis or board.'' Not true. How about the fact snowboarders have a blind spot? Skiers face forward and have good peripheral vision. Snowboarders face to the side and don't have eyes in the back of their heads.
Proof? Most of the skiers I know have had collisions or near collisions with snowboarders. I've been knocked down twice by snowboarders traveling across a slope, only to get the departing excuse, "Sorry, I didn't see you.'' More times I've had to check my speed or turned out of the fall-line to avoid a boarder. I'm much more vigilant when I ski where snowboarders are present.
Do I hate snowboarders? Not at all. I can lay claim to introducing roughly 4,000 new snowboarders to the sport here in Utah.
For roughly 40 years I represented the Deseret News as ski/snowboard editor/writer, and with it was responsible for the Deseret News/KSL Ski/Snowboard School. In 1999, I introduced the idea of adding snowboard instruction to the then 53-year-old ski school program at Alta. In 2000, I negotiated with Snowbird to teach snowboarders and in less than a week after opening registration, there were 400-plus snowboarders registered for the first class. I say plus because it was so well received, we had more than the 400 students we planned for—more like 500. Snowbird agreed to teach all of them and the Deseret News agreed to pay the extra fees.
I represented the News' interest in skiing and snowboarding until 2010 when it was decided—after 63 years teaching skiing and 11 years teaching snowboarding—it was time to retire. I've written about, tried, watched and covered snowboarding, and I have children that snowboard.
Do I think snowboarders have a place in the winter schedule? Yes. There are 12 world class areas in Utah that welcome snowboarders and with cooperative passes added this year by resorts, there's another dozen or so in neighboring states.
Do I believe skiers should have a place free from the worry of snowboarders? Yes. And there are only two—Alta and Deer Valley.
As for Alden, Hicken, Varga and Leines, plaintiffs in the lawsuit, I don't know if it's really so much about snowboarding as it is about them.
There's reference in the suit to "hurts Utah tourism" and "family values.'' Go to Alta or Deer Valley and ask how many "tourists'' are there because there are no snowboarders. The reference to family values, I'm afraid, is a real reach. If my kids or grandkids want to snowboard and I want to ski, I go to resorts that allow both.
I doubt any of these four cares about the thousands of skiers who visit the resort to ski. It's all about them. Selfish? I'd say so. Self serving? I'd say so. Concerned for others? I don't think so.
There are more than 350 ski areas in the United States open to snowboarders. Only three are not, including Mad River Glen in Vermont. It's not like they don't have slopes to board.
As for me, if there was a resort closed to skiers here in Utah, I'd wish it and snowboarders well.

father M. Abdul Rahman's inherent disposition to treat people with
dignity has influenced him a great deal. He was India's freedom
fighter and the Mayor of the Town of Yelahanka [1952-53]. He taught
the pluralism embedded in every religion and cited a verse from Quraan more often than any other thing he taught, his favorite
reading was on gratitude, Sura Rahman from Quraan and it is Mike's
favorite too.
His Mother Khairun Nisa was
a pluralist in every
aspect of life and has simply inspired him to be who he is today.
Her death in 2001 had the greatest impact on him, as she left a
large lesson of tying loose ends of life before departing the world.
Indeed she wrote a note three days prior to her death about it and
left a handwritten will for the family with perfect clarity. Mike
reached home four hours after she had passed away. He sat by her not
knowing whether to smile or to cry and finally chose to smile all
the way until after she was buried and cried when he visited her
three days later at her grave. He smiled because she led a
good example of bringing conclusions to every thing and cried
because he won't see her again.
grew up enjoying and celebrating Hindu, Muslim, Jain, Parsee and
Christian Festivals.
He is grateful to his parents for the
exposure he was given. "My family has come to believe that all
festivals are meant to celebrate and share the joy with the people
you know." Years later Mike produced a Radio show called "Festivals
of the World" where the essence and significance of every festival
was shared on Saturdays and it continues today with his news letter.
Mike says, "No matter what you do in life,
do it wholeheartedly" as it brings joy to oneself and the others
who will consume the work. "I thank God for blessing me with the
passion to do everything with my heart and soul in it. My life has
become Pluralism in general and Religious Pluralism in particular."
Mike speaks
at educational, religious
and civic organizations on Pluralism, Religious
pluralism including multiculturalism and Indian Culture.
The lives of Prophet Mohammad, Mahatma
Gandhi, Jesus Christ, Mother Theresa, Gautama Buddha, Krishna, Guru
Nanak, Martin Luther King Jr., father Abdul Rahman, mother Khairun
Nisa and maternal grand father Shaikh Hussain have profoundly
inspired Mike. President Obama is becoming a Mentor as well, as he
connects with him and his thought process.
"My kids Jeff and
Mina have
excited me with their fresh perspectives on life and God. All my
inspirers have frequently helped me see the world from another point
of view, i.e., respecting all creation and "live and let live" point
of view. My intuitive pluralism and ZERO prejudice has it's
origins in Islam, Hinduism, Jainism and Christianity, many consider
me to be a Baha'i. I was pleased to hear some one called me a Jew as
well and I have been said by people of different faiths that I
belong to them. Thanks to my father for unlocking me from a
singular cell and opening multiple windows of knowledge for me."
Mike has always cherished Abe Lincoln's
statement "with malice towards none", "practicing this gives
me peace." "A good Muslim is a good Hindu, is a good Christian, is a
good Jew and is a good human being, the truth of goodness is the
same. Reading Lincoln is my next project, as Obama is a follower of
"The people who continue to impart
wisdom to me are; Dale Carnegie, Mahatma Gandhi, Maulana Abul Kalam
Azad, Karen Armstrong, Jiddu Krishnamurthy, H.H. Dalai Lama, Martin
Luther King Jr., H.H. Aga Khan, Reverend Moon, Allama Iqbal, Guru
Nanak, Rabbi Gordis and a few others. Let me clarify this, the
simple reason for these particular names is my exposure to their
work. I am open to learning from every possible source."
Mike has learned profound
things from his bosses and friends over the last forty years and
he always acknowledges them. Ed Nesbit, Kathy Joplin,
Mike Davis , Harbans Lal and his grade school teacher Abdul Hakim.
The ultimate in learning is when you
become Brahma, to borrow from the Hindu philosophy, whence you do
not have a barrier between you and what surrounds you. That is
precisely what Qur'aan means when it asks you to submit to the will
of God, Krishna means, surrender to him or Jesus, when he says
follow me, you cannot go wrong with their advice and the wisdom of
all other beautiful religions.
"Each one of the holy books nourishes me
in my quest for the truth. It is quite inspiring to open each
book and draw an enormous amount of wisdom from it."
Discussions with his teachers during
college days has formed the foundation for his outlook; the calm
Shia-Sunni discussions between his father and Hussain Ali, or his
grand father; and the passionate Hindu faith of A. Ramachandra, his
English teacher; the irresistible logic of Mohamed Fakhru, his
weaver friend. And interacting with wise people in Dallas has
enriched him tremendously. The open mindedness of Swami Nityananda
Prabhu of Hare Krishna Temple; the comprehensiveness of
Imam Yusuf Zia Kavacki of Dallas Central Mosque reinforces his
belief in how God is assessed and in the last few years, his
friendship with Imam Zia Shaikh is nothing but a joy.
Each one
of them is all about affection for life, non-discriminatory caring,
non-favoring one over the other for the heck of it other than good
deeds, which Prophet Muhammad [pbuh] described as the good you can
do to other beings, the goodness you bring to God's creation.
"I believe, each one of us is created
by the same creative process, with a singular source [GOD] for such
creation. I believe that respecting each one of its creations
is the best form of praising, worshipping and honoring that creator.
I believe knowledge leads to understanding and understanding to
acceptance and appreciation of people with a different point of
view. If we can learn to accept and respect the God given
uniqueness of each one of the 6 billion of us, then conflicts fade
and solutions emerge."
"I have freed
my God from religious confinement and
believe that the divine's presence belongs to every one, and
he/she/it is everywhere. I see God's greatness in every which way
and in every place of worship. I don't like to lock up God in any
singular spot or limit him into a form.
No one owns Jesus, Krishna
or Mohamed: "Ram is not the property of Hindus, he belongs to all,
Christians don't own Jesus, and Mohammed and his message belongs to
all". I feel that none of us should bottle up the great teachers
into small cells, their teachings are universal and they belong to
all. "Don't let prejudice stop you from learning all the good you
can learn from all religious teachers". I believe Learning about
other faiths simply enhances one's search for the truth."
"I am a
Muslim and blessed to be one and I pray every one feels the same
about his or her individual faith. My faith connects me with my
Creator and answers the purpose of life, death, accountability and
results. The Islam I know is what the majority of Muslims
practice around the world, it is universal, all embracing and
pluralistic. I relate with every faith and see the same essence and
beauty in them as I see in Islam. I am comfortable with every
beautiful way people have come to worship the divine. We do
not have to undermine other faiths to make our faith better, faith
is beyond comparisons. Faith brings humility to oneself and not
"I believe
that the connection with the Creator is inversely proportional to
the ego. Greater the ego, (arrogance); lesser the connection. On the
other hand, greater the humility, greater the spirituality. I am
grateful to that the creator has helped me learn to respect and
honor all faiths, and my faith teaches me never to denigrate other
beliefs. Islam is my path and am honored to travel on it."
As beauty is
in the eyes of the beholder, Mike says "religion is in the heart of
the believer." Each faith is beautiful to the believer and we should
honor that.
"I honor cherish and respect every
which way people have come to praise and worship the almighty,
including but not limited to the Baha'i, Buddhist, Christian, Hindu,
Islamic, Jain, Judaism, Sikh, Wicca, Zoroastrian and several
indigenous systems of belief.
I am committed to defend the divinity of every faith with no
exception and it is in no conflict with my faith, which is Islam."
Mike's chosen path is
Islam and
here he summarizes about Islam in a few
To be a
Muslim is to be a peacemaker, one who seeks to mitigate conflicts
and nurtures goodwill for peaceful co-existence. God wants us to
live in peace and harmony with his creation; that is indeed
the purpose of religion, any religion.

that there is accountability for everything we do, every
transaction of life has a giver and a receiver ultimately ending

that the purpose of religion is to bring spiritual balance to one

As the stars in the universe are unique and as each snow flake is

seven billion of us and each one of has a different thumb print and
an unique DNA combination which we accept, we need to extend that to

Across the country, NAMI advocates are gearing up for Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW) 2010, which takes place October 3-9, to educate the public about serious mental illnesses like major depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
MIAW is especially important this year as state budget cuts continue to threaten critical mental health services nationwide.
|Order or download Mental Illness
Awareness Week resources
Mental illnesses are serious medical illnesses that affect all of our communities. On average, people living with serious mental illness live 25 years less than the rest of the population. One reason is that less than one-third of adults and less than one-half of children with a diagnosed illness receive treatment.
Why do so few people receive treatment?
Former U.S. Surgeon General David Satcher has identified stigma as one serious barrier to getting help in his landmark Mental Health: A Report of the Surgeon General.
MIAW is an opportunity to fight stigma through education, awareness and advocacy. Together, we can change attitudes and save lives by challenging some of the inaccurate stereotypes and myths that are too often associated with mental illness.
NAMI Cambria County in Pennsylvania is one of many NAMI affiliates engaged in a number of great MIAW efforts that include health fairs, National Day of Prayer services, art exhibits and In Our Own Voice presentations that will educate our neighbors, colleagues, political leaders, faith communities and more.
During MIAW, NAMI Cambia County and other affiliates will screen Unlisted: A Story of Schizophrenia, a powerful documentary by Delaney Ruston, M.D. that captures the challenges individuals and families face in getting treatment and support.
Delaney is a physician and filmmaker who chronicles her challenging relationship with her father, Richard, a poet and novelist who lived with schizophrenia. For many years Delaney was estranged from her father, who at times lived on the streets and would show up at her door in psychotic states. Incapable of helping him, she became unlisted in the phone book. Ultimately, her own son's curiosity about his grandfather inspired her to reconcile with Richard.
The film, which was warmly received at NAMI's 2010 convention, explores how deeply mental illness can impact families, underscoring the importance of access to treatment and supportive housing.
If you can't catch a local screening and discussion, PBS television stations in some communities will begin airing the film on Oct. 1 as well.
Our hope is that Unlisted screenings and other MIAW efforts will generate dialogues in every community, but also inspire action to protect mental health services during these difficult economic times.
The more our communities know about mental illness, the better they can help people get the help and support that they need. Contact your local NAMI for information on MIAW activities your community.

Is It Too Late to Start Prepping?
The Organic Prepper
A lot of new folks are starting to realize that the outlook in North America is every bit as grim as the reality in European countries like Greece, Spain, Portugal and a host of others. When even the mainstream media is making dire predictions, the writing is truly on the wall.
If youre new at this, you might be dipping your toe in the water, reading some survivalist and prepping websites, trying to figure out how to keep your family safe and well-fed in the difficult days ahead and you may also read a host of discouraging comments saying that its too late to get started. If you arent already prepared, theres no time left, many experienced preppers are saying dismally. Youre screwed.
If youve already come upon some difficult times, you may think to yourself, Id like to prepare but I barely have enough money to keep a roof over our heads Were screwed.
You might be reading these terrible prophecies, rolling pennies to buy milk at the grocery store, and watching the parade of terrible daily events and be ready to give up before you even get started. You may agree, Yep, its too late. Im screwed.
The thing is, Im the eternal optimist, and I dont believe that it really IS too late. I dont believe that you are screwed, even if tomorrow is the date of your first stockpile shopping trip! If the stores are open, theres still time.
While I agree that the situation is dire and that economic doom is getting closer every day, if youre reading this site and others like it, youve taken the first step to preparedness already just like a 12-Step program for addiction, you have recognized and admitted the problem. This, in and of itself, puts you in the company of an estimated 3 million preppers who are aware that life as we know it today could change in the blink of an eye!
This recognition of the need to prepare puts you ahead of the herd.
This means that you will look at current events differently.
This means that you will think critically when presented with information via the media.
This means that you will truly weigh the pros and cons of fiat currency that you intend to spend.
This means that when you shop, you arent just looking to feed your family until the next grocery trip.
Even if you just have a little inkling in the back of your mind that things are not as they ought to be, you have crossed a thresh-hold and you can choose whether you want to step in to awareness or slam the door on that uneasy feeling and go about your life, doing things the way you have always done them.
If youre still reading, then you may have decided to come on in and join the ranks of the prepared!
While its late in the game we arent in the last inning just yet so lets get started!
The wake-up call for many of us is a downturn in finances. While its ideal to begin stocking up while your income is still good, dont be discouraged if youve taken a financial hit. You wont be able to buy a years supply in one marathon shopping trip but you can empower yourself by getting started.
Getting Started
The first step is to take inventory of what you have you may be surprised to realize that you already have a week or a month of supplies in your pantry. Read If You Dont Know What You Have, You Dont Know What You Need! for more detailed information on inventorying the items that you already have. (Note: the 52 Weeks to Preparedness section of the website Ready Nutrition contains a wealth of information for the beginning prepper. Its a budget-friendly approach to getting prepared!)
Once youve figured out where you are as far as supplies are concerned, you must figure out a way to finance your prepping endeavors. Your budget may be so tight that you can barely keep the lights on but there is still hope. When you change the way you shop, youll soon find that some of the budgetary stress is relieved. But first things first, you have to free up enough money to get started.
You might think that the week after Christmas is a terrible time to get started on something that costs money, but in actuality, you will probably never be in a better position to do so. If your house is anything like mine, you probably have a whole refrigerator full of holiday leftovers resist the urge to do your normal weekly shopping trip and feed your family leftovers combined with the goods you have in your pantry. Use that money that you would normally spend for groceries and lets get started! No matter how small your budget is, you can begin building security for your family. I am basing these prices on my teeny tiny small-town grocery store, this week. You may be able to get more, based on whats on sale in your area.
$20 List
2 pound bag of rice
2 pound bag of beans
4 cans of spaghetti sauce
2 cans of peaches in water
1 jar of peanut butter
1 jug of white vinegar
5 gallon jug of water
$50 List
everything in the $20 list and
4 boxes of saltine crackers
4 jars of unsweetened applesauce
2 pounds of sugar
5 pounds of flour
1 liter of olive oil
3 cans of green beans
2 boxes of baking soda
$100 List
everything on the $20 list and the $50 list and
1 canister of grated Parmesan cheese
1 canister of baking powder
10 pound bag of potatoes
5 pound bag of onions
5 pound bag of carrots
2 pounds of powdered milk
6 pounds of pasta
5 bags of dried spices of choice
small assortment of treats (candy, chocolate chips, etc you have $5 to spend on things that make life more pleasant!)
If youve read my other articles, you may think these lists are in conflict with the organic theme. While Id certainly love to see everyone give Monsanto the cold shoulder by buying local and organic, its just not always feasible, especially when you are just getting started. Id rather see people begin to take control by having a supply like the one listed here something that when combined with the foods in the cupboards might see you through a month of hard times.
Whats more, when you have this little bit of security this one-month food investment, you can begin to build on this with healthier and more nutritious options. You can start learning how to be more self-sufficient by growing what you can, by learning to preserve food and by buying in bulk.
Its Not Over Theres Time
That little voice whispering warnings is telling you something very important its saying that things just arent right. Call it instinct, the voice of God, or a premonition but listen and get prepared. Start right now. Even if you only have 2 weeks worth of food and water, that is two weeks that your family will not be hungry or thirsty. After Superstorm Sandy people were complaining that they hadnt eaten after only two days.
None of us knows how long the dollar will last. We, in North America, will be going the way of Greece not if, but when. Natural disasters occur, interrupting the flow of commerce and the availability of goods. Jobs are lost, illnesses occur, and storms blow in. If you listen to that little voice telling you to get ready, you will not be standing in line with all of the rowdy crowds waiting for FEMA to dole out benevolence.
Take the time we have left and make the most of it. Ignore the naysayers with their discouraging pronouncements that there isnt enough time. Every single meal you put aside, every book of matches, every candle and every alternative cooking method you invest in, increases the security of your family.
Focus on what you can do and block out the static of those who say the word cant.

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Perennials
Growing Hosta (page 2 of 2)
by National Gardening Association Editors
Be mindful when working in the spring garden. Hostas emerge from their winter slumber later in the spring than many perennials--the hosta in the foreground has just sprouted, while the columbine in back is up and growing strong.
A little extra TLC will get new hosta plantings off to a strong start. Be sure to water the plants during dry spells, especially during their first growing season. Apply a 2-inch-thick mulch of compost or leaf mold each year to provide nutrients. Hostas growing in the shade of large trees may need supplemental waterings to help them compete with the tree roots.
The only major pests of hostas are slugs, which thrive in the moist, cool, shady areas that hostas love. Controls include handpicking, traps, and deterrents like a layer of diatomaceous earth or crushed eggshells spread underneath the plants.
Unlike many perennials, hostas do not need regular dividing to keep them growing strong. Established hosta plantings have been in place for 30 years and longer with no need for dividing.

Glad to hear you had a good trip! Any chance we'll see a picture of E's dress in action from the trip?
Did I log any serious sewing time? Um...not so much. But I had grand plans! You simply must start the Urban Lattice quilt along - it's addictive. I can't seem to stop making these blocks, they're really fun (I know, I'm a dork)! :)

Concrete paving, Colorado style
State Highway 66 runs through the foothills of the Colorado Rockies between Lyons and Longmont. CDOT repaired 27 lane-miles (244,000 square yards) of the roadway with 6-inch thin whitetopping in 2009. After two years in service, the pavement shows no signs of distress. Photo: Bill Palmer
CDOT has developed a cost comparison model, based on material costs for a sample project: a 1-mile road, 44-feet wide (a 12-foot lane and 10-foot shoulder in each direction), with a total area of 25,800 square yards. Based on initial construction costs, asphalt is $95,000 less expensive. Based on material costs over a 40-year period, thin whitetopping saves $160,000.
Thin whitetopping requires closely-spaced construction joints — a deterrent to some municipalities that favor quicker repair techniques. This 6-inch thin whitetopping project has longitudinal and transverse joints every 9 feet. Photo: Bill Palmer
In 1999, CDOT placed a 5-inch thin whitetopping overlay on Parker Road, a high-volume urban corridor on the southeast side of Denver. The $2.9 million project covers 12.5 lane-miles; in 12 years, repairs have been limited to minor transverse cracks. Photo: CDOT
In urban areas, curbs and gutters pose a challenge to thin whitetopping design. CDOT has two approaches: covering the curb face with an angled, mountable profile (Figure 1); or removing the curb face (Figure 2) to reduce the vertical profile by 4 inches before placing the overlay. Courtesy of CDOT
In a mountainous region that endures 300 freeze/thaw cycles a year, maintaining roads is an inherent challenge. Through its ongoing search for cost-effective ways to extend pavement life, Colorado DOT (CDOT) may have discovered its ideal solution: thin whitetopping.
While asphalt has always been part of the state's pavement structure, the pliable material is susceptible to damage from the harsh climate, snow tires, and chains that road agencies use several months every year. "When you have repetitive maintenance issues, you need to compare the cost and frequency of repairs with a long-term solution that may cost more upfront but saves money in the long run." says Pavement Design Program Manager Jay Goldbaum.
Goldbaum has learned from experience. As a CDOT employee of 23 years, he has worked on whitetopping projects since 1993 — and now serves on the national panel to develop AASHTO's mechanistic empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG) DARW-in ME software.
CDOT began considering thin white-topping as an alternative to asphalt overlays in 1990, with a test project on State Highway 68 near Fort Collins. Based on its success, the agency continued using the pavement-restoration method on highways and local roads, and added it to state specifications in 2004. To date, CDOT has placed almost 900,000 square yards of thin whitetopping.
"We base our decision to use thin whitetopping on a 40-year life-cycle cost analysis," says Goldbaum (see above chart). In general, the agency assumes the concrete overlay will last 27 years before requiring significant rehabilitation efforts, as compared to an asphalt overlay's 12-year life span. Half of the state's thin whitetoppings have been in service for a decade or longer, and have an average annual maintenance cost of less than $400/lane-mile.
Goldbaum has also noticed an interesting economic trend — more stable asphalt costs. "In areas where we've done whitetopping, we've seen hot-mix asphalt prices stay constant or even come down."
