John McCain releases statement on Petraeus resignation
Sen. John McCain released the following statement on Friday after CIA Director David Petraeus resigned as the result of an extramarital affair.
It has not been altered in any way.
"General David Petraeus will stand in the ranks of America's greatest military heroes. His inspirational leadership and his genius were directly responsible – after years of failure – for the success of the surge in Iraq. General Petraeus has devoted his life to serving the country he loves, and America is so much the better for it. We are immensely grateful for General Petraeus's decades of work on behalf of our nation, our military, and our security. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family."

Hacking your Education by Dale J. Stephens, good read!
From their mission statement:
GradHacker is a collaborative blog and bootcamp program that spans universities and programs. It is written by graduate students from a variety of universities, departments, and stages in their careers and for the entire range of graduate and professional students. We are dedicated to creating a community of grads who can benefit from hearing the stories, tips, and challenges of others who are experiencing the same things. The topics that we will tackle are just as varied as the individuals who are writing them, and while the original idea for this spawned from the goal of teaching other grads about technology to ease their lives and help with networking, we want to expand the idea of 'hacking' to all aspects of grad life.
I really hope that this site is awesome. Seriously, I'm all for the transition from academics to hackademics.

A surgical team's plan to perform the first-ever human head transplant is unethical, says Dr. David Stevens, CEO of the Christian Medical & Dental Associations.
"Believing in the sanctity of life from a biblical point of view, how do you ethically do this?" Stevens asked in an interview with The Christian Post on Monday, noting the procedure's "risk to the patient is just enormous."
"There's no way to ethically do this type of experiment when you haven't proven it in the lab. What happens when it doesn't work? Patient's head has been severed and they're going to die," he said. more >>

Friendly staff, paved road in changes to gravel for the last quarter mile, very tough angle to turn into the campground. Only a handful of people there, cold pool, very small store. Would recommend for those in pop ups with small children looking for quiet place to spend a few days. Nearby Bryson City Railroad is great day trip for the kids; also near by river rafting & tubing. - ash289

A small CG just one mile south of the road to the Deep Creek Area, Smoky Mountain National Park. The CG is just in it's first or second year and is a narrow plot with a gravel road and sites that are not quite level, but have 30-50 amp E, W, and S. The sites are adequately wide and long in a slanted configuration pull through. There is no camp office and no bath room facilities, so not the place for tents and pop tops. No play grounds. There is a red train caboose mounted on rails for show. There is a camp host on site part time. $30 is over high for this. But it is quiet and the Deep Creek Area has three water falls and hiking trails so if your RV is self contained and you are just going to the national park it is usable. - 210jem

I've been staying at the Lost Mine Campground for over 7 years. It is a very nice, quiet campground run by owners who live next to the property. They are intimately involved in the maintenance, care and control of the campground. This bothers some - there is no stereos allowed, and quiet hours are strictly enforced. So, it's not for the partying youth of today. However, it IS kid friendly. There is a very nice creek that runs through the campsite, and children of all ages love to spend hours playing in it. The sound of the creek fills your tent at night - some reviewers have mentioned a "busy" road - bahhh! This is a mountain road just up from the Nantahala Outdoor Center outpost on the Nanty and only local traffic comes up it. Yes, some of the campsites are located just off this road - if the occasional vehicle passing by bothers you, request a different site. Power available for fans and basic lighting only. No cable, TV, Wi-Fi, etc. A perfect place to hide from the rest of the world. Always cool in the evenings, perfect sleeping weather. Have stayed in a tent and in a hybrid travel trailer. Does get very wet when it rains - again, choose your site carefully. Get to know the owners and you will enjoy every visit. - MrPresident
Jun 2007 - $15.00
This campground is very convenient if you are going to the Nantahala Outdoor Center, but I will try someplace difference next time. The sites are spread out on a very busy road. When walking to the bath house I thought more than once I was going to be hit by a car speeding down the road. We camped in a tent with no access to electricity that was near a stream which would have been nice if it wasn't so close to the road and road noise. We arrived in the evening and the woman who checked us in wasn't very friendly. The bathrooms and showers were clean. - tlaw2

The campground is a great base to sight see the area. We camped on the creek. This is a family friendly place. There were many children out playing..my kids had a great time. There is a pen behind the office with adult and baby goats. You can rent tubes for $4.00 and tube on the creek. It would be nice if there was some foliage or trees between the sites for more privacy or to make it feel more wooded. Also the bathrooms need some repair or upgrading. The windows without much effort could be easily looked into with a view into the shower area.I say this because I was at a campground once where some peeping tom kids did get up to the same type windows at night to look into the women's bathrooms. Also the doors on the showers and toilet stalls do not give complete privacy, my daughter pointed this out to me. Overall, the campground was OK and we would go back if in the area. - firefly

Chose this campground because of the close proximity to Bryson City. We found the manager to be very nice and extremely helpful. Our site was basically in a field and due to Hurricane Patricia the ground was verrry wet and very unlevel. While trying to get 3 inches of boards under one side we became stuck in the mud. Thankfully the manager had a tractor and was very helpful in getting us out otherwise we would have had to be towed out. The ground was too soft for a heavy 38 foot RV and needed a lot of gravel. I would not recommend camping there in a large RV. The road to the campground is very narrow and winding and only wide enough for one vehicle in places and this seems to be a well used road. With some upgrading to the sites it could be a nice campground for tents or smaller RVs. We felt like the site fee was way too high for what you get. $20.00 would be more appropriate. While the manager was very personable, we would not camp there again. - Aileen

Stayed for a month. Quiet campground location. Super friendly managers. Close to Bryson City with cute shops and cafes (Cork and Bean was our local place and Mountain Brew has great wraps). Eleven miles from NOC whitewater rafting and kayaking. Five miles to Fontana Lake for fishing and the famous Tsali mountain bike/horse riding trails. Had a blast and would come back if we are in the area again. - h2ocessna

This is a perfect location for visiting this part of Smoky Mountain National Park - literally within walking distance. Also a great location for people interested in tubing on Deep Creek. The campground is just outside Bryson City so it is very convenient. Highly recommended if you want full services which SMNP does not have. Very friendly staff. The services - power, sewage, water worked well. We did not use cable, but it is available. We did not use the bathhouse. The campground is surrounded by trees. There is a camp store that is well stocked with general items. Inner tubes are also available for tubing. - sue2

Stayed at this park for a long weekend. The park it tucked away in the mountains, so getting to it is quite an adventure. The roads leading to the park are not really big-rig friendly, but the park definitely is. I pulled my 37' travel trailer in with no problem. The staff was extremely nice and funny. The owner was VERY active during the entire trip - cleaning, fixing, etc. The campgrounds are what you would expect for such a mountain campground. Basic in their setup, but very comfortable. Each site offered full hookups (30A) and were very easy to pull in/through. The setup of the campground was very nice (tent campers had their own area, as did RVers). The bathroom/wash house was great. Very clean. Great water pressure. Awesome showers. Not a ton of shade in the RV section. Most of the shade is taken by full-timers. They had a community fire pit which a lot of whitewater boaters tend to use. This is a great campground if you are using the Smokey Mountains or NOC. Wifi is available at the park. Be aware that some cell services are limited here.. as is everywhere in this area. - Curtis R
May 2013 - $17.00
Campground is separated into two sections - one, tents only and the other RVs and tents. The tent area does not have individual sites. There are about four or five tent platforms situated near one another (think group camping) and a few parking spots nearby. The RV/camp area has more individual sites, but as far as RVing, the rig must park alongside the road, and thankfully it's not busy, since there is no way a rig could get by if people were parked on both sides of the road. NOT big-rig friendly, at most, maybe a 34' motorhome, 30' towable, but roads are tough to navigate. In addition, lots of low hanging branches, low enough to scrap the roof of our truck, let alone our fifth wheel. A few nice trails and areas to walk, hike, swim, tube, and gather. Although a nice area (and the town of Bryson is cute), we would not stay here again, due to the navigation of the roads. - campingandtravels.blogspot.com

Great place to stay near Bryson City. A little overpriced for the amenities. People drive too fast. Roads are dusty. Sites are small. Staff were personable. Plenty of little people running around. Rafting was great fun for the 6 year old. Full hookups are a plus. Sites are not cleaned after each use. - Phill

This is a beautiful campground with a babbling, clear lovely creek. Our campsite was feet from the creek and you could hear it rushing by. The management was lovely, and the grocery store was well stocked with delicious ice cream. Great smoky national park is a short hike away, as are beautiful waterfalls. We rented tubes (available right inside the campground) and tubed down Deep Creek right back to our campsite. It was awesome. - Harryswife

Nice place to stay in Byson City and great tubing on Deep Creek in the National Park. It has been a few years since we stayed her and they have made a few upgrades to the park. The night sky was spectacular and friendly staff made this a nice place to stay. We would stay her again. - DS650

Most of the campground is taken up with permanent residents. Some of the permanents are pretty run down. Friendly staff. Wi-Fi works only at the store. Good cable TV. OK place to stay if you don't plan on being in the campground all the time. - arkietraveler
Jun 2010 - $35.00
Oh yes! The staff (owners?) were very frendly and helpful indeed. This place is an older campground filled with mostly long-term residents. Very many of them with attachments (more like roots) indicating YEARS of being here. This place is more sow's ear than silk purse. I was placed in a refurbished area (on one of the very FEW pull through sites) and so had 50 amp service. Allowing for mountains and distance from the city I had almost NO Verizion cell service: but was able to use the WiFi. There were several "choke points" (including the main entrance) for larger rigs and a place or two, too tight for much more than a pop-up. I fouled some overhead phone lines while exiting and driving through one of those choke points. The place is somewhat poorly laid out as it seems to have grown in stages over the years. There are too many other places in the area to claim use just for convienence, but in line w/ the general "pricyness" of the area and time of year. Not really sure I would return or suggest others stay. - D Ward

The Smokies are a wonderful place to visit and camp and this park is right smack in the center of everything to do on the North Carolina side. The property is an older park that is neat and well keep. Most riverfront sites have seasonal units permanently in place with cool river decks, so only a few of those are available for short term visits. The park does have several decks with walk downs to the river that are large with plenty of room-close to all the sites. The staff is friendly and very accommodating-you feel like family. We'll be back! - mikebadingolf

Somewhat remote with very wide clean, level sites. Trout stream runs immediately behind campsite and two fishing/swimming lakes on property. Charged $3 extra for AC usage but we only needed it one night in August. Very nice golf course is 1 mile away but good restaurants are close by in Bryson City. Baths and showers are a little old but very clean. Large open grassy field is across road from campsites. No antenna TV or radio and Verizon was marginal. I was able to get my dish tailgater to work. - Crottys
Jul 2010 - $29.00
We loved this campground tremendously. The sites are large, the stream looks and sounds great. They have a small pond to swim and another to fish. There are plenty of trees but not too many you have trouble getting around. Hostess and her grandson were great. The campground had the feel of a state or national park. Make sure to follow the signs or advice if you call. We have a 30 ft fifth wheel and did not have trouble getting to them or into the site. We will come back here when we're in the area again. - kangmoe
Oct 2006 - $23.00
What a great little campground. No real amenities (a sewer hookup would have been nice), but the camp sites were very large and private. The campground was very quite. We could hear the little stream we backed up to gurgling in the night. Plenty of places to walk our dogs. Convenient to Cherokee and surrounding attractions. We had so much fun we extended our stay an extra night. - rascalydog

Excellent staff (co-managing couples). Park is on the river. Sites large, privacy fences between site. Easy access to river trail and river. Wifi not the greatest unless close to office. Restrooms sparkling clean. Good Laundry facilities with good prices. Great Park. we will return! - M&MLuna
Jun 2015 - $30.00
Very clean park. We were greeted when we arrived and shown our site before trying to back in. Staff was fantastic. River was right behind us with steps leading down to the shore. The only downside was iffy WiFi. We would definitely stay here again. - ShagsMom
Jun 2015 - $28.00
Stayed here for 10 days, at the far back end of the lot in site 36. We were greeted with American flags displayed at every site post, due to the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, which was a nice treat. We were able to fit a 30' into this spot (though it's one of the smallest). Backing in was a bit difficult, since the slope of the lot against the railroad means there isn't much clearance. Plus the concrete picnic pad makes for very tight maneuvering. The biggest issue with staying here was traffic! It's right across the river from US-74, and it's moderately busy 24 hours. In addition, there's a sloped uphill road on the other side of the train tracks that gets a lot of traffic. With the a/c on; however, it's not too much of an issue. I thought the train might be a problem, but in the ten days we were there we only saw it three times, always in the late morning/early afternoon hours, so don't worry about it waking you up. Like another reviewer said, the only thing that runs on it is a historic rail line tour. We could not get a direct wireless signal here using Verizon Mifi, but we could get a signal using a cell booster. No cell phone service by itself, though. The campground hosts were wonderful, and did everything possible to make us feel at home. If we ever visit the Smokies again, we would stay here for sure. - LanderWust

But now I said to them, "You know very well what trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire. Let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem and end this disgrace!" — Nehemiah 2:17
Gordon Bethune took over Continental Airlines as CEO when it was in a free fall in 1994. The airline had one of the worst on-time records in the business. Customer service almost didn't exist. Planes were dirty. Workers lost luggage.
The first problem Bethune tackled was the on-time record. He pledged non-manager workers $65 bonuses every month the airline's on-time rate put it in the top five nationwide. Baggage handlers, gate and reservation clerks, flight attendants, and secretaries were all part of the pool.
He arrived at the $65 by determining what it cost the company each month to run flights late. At $5 million per month, Bethune was willing to give half of that back to the employees ($65 times 40,000 employees) if they turned their on-time record around. He announced the program in January 1995. In February of 1999, 80% of Continental's flights landed on time.
By providing a financial windfall to the employees, all of a sudden, planes were clean. Motivation was up. So were profits. People were doing things for their reasons.
During Nehemiah's time, the city walls encircling Jerusalem, God's holy city, lay in ruins. It was a disgrace. A city's walls were for protection. Without the stone barricade and nothing to stop their enemies, the inhabitants were defenseless and vulnerable to attack.
People are experts in cost-benefit analysis. Everybody asks, "What's in it for me?" Constructed walls around Jerusalem would benefit the residents of the city. Nehemiah knew this and acted on it. He led the people of Jerusalem to rebuild the wall, not for his sake (he lived a thousand miles away) but for their sake. And, it wasn't an extra $65 a month in their paycheck; it was for the protection of their very lives and their families.
One can poke, prod, and push people, and they don't move. But give them a good reason--one of their reasons--a way in which they will benefit, and they will follow where you lead.
People do things for their reasons, not your reasons. Their reasons.

I am having trouble figuring out if I am using the right programming language, so it would be great if I could get some suggestions.
Basically, I would like to have a lot (a very large amount) of data stored together in one place, and be able to use a calendar-based navigation system to display different portions of the data. I would like the navigation to work in two ways: first, there should be some sort of function for jumping to a specific date, month, or year (and I would also like to be able to make this part hideable); and second, there should be "next & previous" functionality, as well as "broader & narrower" functionality (for example: if a user is viewing "Jan 1, 1995", they can "broaden" by looking at an overview of the week month or year that the date falls into).
The site won't have any fancy images or anything, in fact, the goal is to make it as simple to the viewer as possible, however the underlying structure of how the data is displayed may get quite complex (different positioning based on the content of the data-part, for example) & there may be images and other media included in the data to be displayed, but I don't expect this to need any fancy presentation.
I hope this gives a fair idea of what I have in my head, I can't think of what else to say about it, but please ask if it doesn't make sense.
Currently, I have been experimenting with xml (and related), css, and ssi. I have a sneaking suspicion there may be a simpler way...?

Trinity Dam is an earthfill dam on the Trinity River located about 7 miles (11 km) northeast of Weaverville, California in the United States. The dam was completed in the early 1960s as part of the federal Central Valley Project to provide irrigation water to the arid San Joaquin Valley.
Standing 538 ft (164 m) high, Trinity Dam forms Trinity Lake – California's third largest reservoir, with a capacity of more than 2,400,000 acre feet (3,000,000 dam3). A hydroelectric plant at the base of the dam furnishes power to surrounding rural areas, and the reservoir also provides flood control benefits to the Trinity River valley. However, controversy has surrounded the negative impacts of the dam project on the river's salmon run.
In response to the Great Depression and drought conditions in California during the early 20th century, the United States Congress passed the 1935 Rivers and Harbors Act, which authorized the Central Valley Project (CVP) – a system of dams and canals to provide a stable supply of irrigation water to California's Central Valley.[2] Among the project works was a 1942 proposal to divert water from the Trinity River in northwestern California to augment water supplies in the CVP service area, known as the Trinity River Division. However, the state dropped the Trinity River project from the CVP in 1945.[3]
Six years later, however, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), which was responsible for the construction and operations of most CVP facilities, revived the division, which comprised a system of four dams and two tunnels to capture and store the flow of the Trinity and transport it to the Sacramento River, generating a net surplus of hydroelectric power along the way. Trinity Dam was to be the main storage feature of the division, providing a stable flow to the Lewiston Dam, the diversion point for Trinity River waters into the Central Valley.[3][4]
Construction at Trinity Dam began on June 4, 1956 with preliminary excavation and the river was diverted around the dam site on July 8, 1957. Work was bogged down in late 1957 when the river flooded and took out the cofferdam that protected the construction site. However, workers cleared out the dam site by the summer of 1958, and the hiatus also allowed them time to line the diversion tunnel with concrete.[3]
Rock placement began on the main structure as early as 1957, but it was not until 1959 when a 11,000 ft (3,400 m) conveyor belt was incorporated, allowing much faster transport of fill to the dam site. The spillway tunnel was completed in October 1959 and the embankment was topped out in late 1960. The dam's power plant, however, was not finished until December 1963. Trinity stood as the highest earthfill dam in the world until eclipsed by the Oroville Dam, also in California, in 1968.[3] The latter remains the tallest dam in the United States.[5]
As the reservoir filled, it submerged the pioneer towns of Trinity Center, Stringtown and Minersville as well as parts of a historic Northern California stagecoach route.[6] The reservoir was originally named Clair Engle Lake after Clair Engle, a United States senator and major proponent of the CVP. This name was unpopular among local residents, many of whom had watched their homes inundated by the rising waters. By 1995, it had been renamed Trinity Lake.[7]
Trinity Dam is an earth and rock-filled dam composed mainly of river gravel and local rock, rising 538 ft (164 m) from its foundations and 440 ft (130 m) above the riverbed. The dam's crest is 2,450 ft (750 m) long and 2,395 ft (730 m) above sea level.[8] High water releases are controlled by three different sets of gates. The outlet works have a capacity of 24,000 cu ft/s (680 m3/s), and the service spillway, a morning-glory (bell-mouth) design, can take 22,400 cu ft/s (630 m3/s) of water. The dam's auxiliary spillway has a capacity of 2,250 cu ft/s (64 m3/s).[9]
Trinity Lake can hold up to 2,447,650 acre feet (3,019,130 dam3) at full pool, and encompasses up to 17,722 acres (7,172 ha) of water.[10] Trinity Powerplant, located at the base of the dam, has two Francis turbines with a capacity of 140 megawatts (MW) combined, uprated from an original capacity of 100 MW. The plant generates an average of 358.97 million kilowatt hours (kWh) and has a low capacity factor, which means it operates mainly on a peaking basis.[11]
Environmental impacts[edit]
Trinity Dam forms an impassable barrier for migrating salmon in the Trinity River, but along with other division facilities has also had adverse impacts on salmon habitat in the lower reaches of the river. Within ten years of the dam's completion, more than three-quarters of Trinity River water was being diverted to the Central Valley each year, and the little flow left in the river was warm, shallow and less suitable for spawning salmon. In addition, the dam blocks the Trinity River's annual floods and sediment loads, leading to degradation in the gravel bars that are vital for salmon habitat.[12][13]
In response to declining salmon populations, the USBR built the Trinity River Fish Hatchery. The hatchery is operated by the California Department of Fish and Game and has a capacity of 40 million eggs.[4] In 1992, Congress passed the Central Valley Project Improvement Act, which established a minimum annual release of 340,000 acre feet (420,000 dam3) into the lower Trinity River.[14]
Such as the effects of choking the system of oxygen in a natural habitat.[15] With a lower level of oxygen, it would not be able to meet the demands of the fish that require oxygen in the water to survive.
The building of the Dam has created Trinity Lake and the Trinity River flows through the lake and to the dam, almost all of the 1.2 million acre foot is used elsewhere in California [16] This shows that water that is stored in any reservoir is valuable and is essentially removing it from the natural system. That is a negative aspect to dams in general but specifically this Dam in particular. Also, below the Trinity Dam, is the Lewiston Dam (California) in which that water is sent to other water customers that live throughout the State.[17] This is important because this requires the help of two dams just to move water from the reservoir to the customers that require water for either Agriculture or Urban uses.
Another aspect in which Dams negatively impact the natural ecosystem deals with sediment erosion and sediment deposition. Specifically, the effects dams have on the natural flow of the river such as the natural pulses it has and as well its ability to transfer sediment else where.[18] The fact that the river no longer flows like it used to shows that sediment is backing up. This makes sense because a dam is a large wall blocking the path of the water and sediment. Leaving the natural ecosystem without the benefits of a naturally working cycle of nutrients and water flow.
Just like any national forest, the reservoir of Trinity Lake and . Black Bears and Colombian Blacktail Deer are a few of the most common species of mammals that exist near this dam.[19] These species are iconic for this type of environment and are most likely affected by the creation of the dam. This is also important because it means that even though the environment has been changed since the creation of the dam, most of the mammal species still exist in their natural habitat.
Along with the normal mammal species that inhabit the land, there are of course species that exist in the water since the Trinity Lake exists behind the dam. Related to the environmental aspects of the creation and management of the dam, there had to be some way of lessening our damage on the natural ecosystem of this river system. One of the most commonly used methods are the use of hatcheries to try to sustain a population of fish. Specifically, the Trinity River Hatchery raises and hatches Chinook, Coho Salmon as well as Steelhead Trout for the various runs throughout the year [20] These species are almost iconic in both how they look and what they mean to the natural environment. The combination of the mammal species along with the fish species make up the Trinity Lake region. This is important because like any wild environment there are an abundance of species that have adapted to living in the specific way of life. Species existing in this environment are unique to this area and have adapted to a flooded environment that was not flooded previous to the construction of the dam. The most obvious impact to wildlife is that they now have less area to roam around and forage.This causes concern for species that are using the water for their own needs which conflicts with the needs of the humans that created that environment in the first place.
Drought Effects[edit]
The effects of droughts on a dam may seem obvious, such as there is not enough water in the river that feeds the reservoir that the dam holds back. It goes beyond that. The hydrology of any region can be a complicated situation. When a dam releases water for hydropower or any other flood related management, it keeps the water from being able to percolate and recharge the groundwater supplies in the surrounding area of the dam.[21] This is important because it may appear that dams keep a lot of water stored in one place but releasing the water frequently for flood management may cause consequences.
Drought can also affect the amount of hydro power that a dam can create with a lessening amount of water behind the dam, which means less water is pushing turbines [22] This is apparent in dams all across California in which the 5-year drought has taken a toll in electricity production. Drought has that dual effect on supply and electricity generation in which the people of California try to find solutions to this water dilemma. The issue also arises when there is a lessened amount of water for hydro power, electricity demand is switched to alternative sources due to no power production during a drought. This causes the local power companies to rely on other methods for electrical generation because they simply cannot produce enough electricity to meet demand.
Effects on Native People/Towns[edit]
The effects of a dam on the Native people are not always published but are well known. Trinity Dam is no different in terms of its effects on the local population that most likely had to adapt in some way to a changing California environment. One negative effect that has the people of the Hoopa Tribe concerned more than anything is the flow of the river and the impact it has on the salmon population.[23] Shortened supplies of food can affect any population whether it is a human population or other animal species. This old photo shows just how long this dam has been built and how much longer it will continue to effect the Native Americans.
Another aspect in which the dam and the drought have negatively affected the local tribes of people that live along the Trinity River. Aside from fish the other species the effects also have flooded places where tribes people use to farm.[23] Tribes are affected by creation of dams since they are the first people to actually live on this side of the world, any negative impact will greatly reduce their livelihoods. Dams appear to have that dual damage of initially flooding then when drought hits they are also reduced in the amount of food they can independently produce.
Hydrology is important for the fully functionality of the Trinity Dam. Nothing is more important than the Trinity River (California) as the life blood for the Reservoir Trinity Lake. The river essentially travels a great distance and is feeding the reservoir with an annual rainfall of 57 inches and is the pathway that the lake receives its water from.[24] This is important because once you understand the hydrology of the region then the construction of the dam will make a lot more sense. As the water enters the system it has to leave eventually and that is where the Lewiston Dam (California) comes into play.
The plan is needed in order to regulate the amount of water that flows through the region so that the Central Valley Project has enough water allocated to its farmers.[25] This can cause the region to have an excess supply of water due to high precipitation in the region which is stored at Trinity Dam and Trinity Lake respectively. This water that is stored at Trinity Lake is used in other regions other than where it is located much like the rest of the dams we have created.
Studying hydrology helps people understand where their water comes from as well as the current status on how full the reservoirs are. With the passing of the drought, the Dam will continue to operate for electricity as well as for storing water for another full year. Trinity river as stated earlier, feeds the dam with a plentiful supply of water. It also creates a reliance on the dam for an ever growing population that is increasing at an unprecedented rate. As shown by this photo of the true power of dams
With 145 miles (233 km) of shoreline,[26] Trinity Lake is a popular summer destination for Northern California residents. Since 1965, the lake has been part of the Trinity Unit of the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. The lake has been developed with boat ramps and marinas, most of which are concentrated in the Stuart Fork arm in the southwest and around the resort town of Trinity Center near the north end of the reservoir.[27]
One of the most important features that dams provide are how it benefits people. Next to actually holding back water, the next important function is flood control. The storms that pass in winter can fill up a dam and in order to keep farmers and urban residents from drowning, the dam has to be able to release water in a controlled way so that people downstream do not drown from such a hazard.[28] Flood control is an integral part in maintaining the functions of the dam. Having the ability to hold back water for flood management is a great benefit to society because the economic losses to a great flood would hurt the local economy of farmers. This means that people downstream can rest easy knowing that the water is not going to periodically flood their land and homes. This is especially important when there is a drought present, losing any amount of water for flood protection appears counter intuitive. Having controlled releases helps save lives by the work of FEMA and other governmental agencies.[28]

Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
By Lindsey Siegele
Homesteading, DIY Projects
Wood-Mizer Personal Best contest winners have completed some amazing projects. We've featured Donn Saindon's reclaimed wood cabin, Robert Craig's affordable and rustic barn and Joe Bonn's incredible dream home over the past month, and this week, we have yet another beautiful construction project to share. Jim Oseychuk's hand-built garden shed isn't only functional — it's a work of art, too.
When Oseychuk's wife suggested that he build a garden shed, she pictured something simple. "We were standing in our old raspberry patch," he says, "when my wife, Lee, suggested that we rip it all out and construct a garden shed — one that could be built in a weekend."
A weekend project wasn't in the cards for Oseychuk, but an intricate, award-winning garden shed was. He constructed the shed from old fir logs he had been saving and employed the help of some friends and family for the heavy lifting. The most difficult part of the shed — and probably also the most unique — was its curved roof.
What was meant to be a weekend project turned into a labor of love that lasted three and a half months. The result, however, was well worth the wait.
The winners of Wood-Mizer's personal best contest have built some impressive shelters. What has been your personal best construction project?

What are the advantages of being an unregistered user?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
The main advantage of being an unregistered user is that you don't have to sign up. So if you feel sketchy about OpenID, or simply have only one question that needs attending to, it's a great way to get expert answers without tying yourself down to some place.
Sometimes, people don't have the time to dedicate to full participation in a Q&A site, and by allowing people to act unregistered we are able to provide our services even to these people. We give them an easier avenue than, say, registering at a random forum. It's not a big hassle, but not having to do it at all is very advantageous.
Ideally, these users do the smallest part of payback by accepting a good answer, but we don't even enforce that on them.
Aside from the lack of ties, the only other "advantages" are not having to deal with the downsides of being a user, such as:

Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I used Dreamweaver in my web design business for the last four years. I have taken an advanced course at the technical college specifically using Dreamweaver. I have also tutored others in the use of this product as an alternative to HTML coding.
I have been designing websites for about 20 years for private, corporate and non-profits. I worked for Hewlett-Packard (HP) for two years working on their intranet websites. Along with HTML and various software packages, I have also taught a 30 hour graphic design course to high school students at the local technical school.
