While the winter months are the leading time of year for home fires, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says the post-holiday season presents its own set of fire hazards. Dried out Christmas trees and holiday lighting are among the leading culprits.
"As time goes by, Christmas trees continue to dry out and become increasingly flammable," said Lorraine Carli, vice president of Communications for NFPA. "For trees decorated with holiday lights, the risk increases because they're in direct contact with an electrical source."
Although Christmas tree fires are not common, when they do occur, they have a higher chance of being deadly. On average, one of every 66 reported home structure Christmas tree fires resulted in a death compared to an average of one death per 144 total home structure fires.
A video demonstration created by NFPA and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) underscores just how quickly a dried-out Christmas tree fire can grow and spread.
According to Carli, you can tell when the tree is drying out by the number of needles that drop each day. "Once you start to see more fall, the tree is no longer fresh, and it's time to get rid of it."
Dried trees should not be kept in the home, garage or placed outside against the home. Check with your local community to find a recycling program.
In 2006 to 2010, holiday lights and other decorative lights were involved in an annual average of 160 home fires, nine civilian deaths, 13 related injuries, and $9 million in direct property damage. To reduce the risk of holiday light fires and keep equipment in good condition for next year, follow these storage suggestions:
• To unplug electric decorations, use the gripping area provided on the plugs. Never pull the cord to unplug a device from electrical outlets. Doing so can harm the cord's wire and insulation and even lead to an electrical shock or fire.
• As you're putting away electrical light strings, take time to inspect each for damage. Throw out light sets if they have loose connections, broken sockets or cracked or bare wires.
• Do not place a damaged set of lights back into the storage box for next year's use.
• Wrap each set of lights and put them in individual plastic bags, or wrap the lights around a piece of cardboard.
• Store electrical decorations in a dry place where they cannot be damaged by water or dampness. Also, keep them away from children and pets.
NFPA is a worldwide leader in fire, electrical, building, and life safety. The mission of the international nonprofit organization, which was founded in 1896, is to reduce the worldwide burden of fire and other hazards on the quality of life by providing and advocating consensus codes and standards, research, training, and education. NFPA develops more than 300 codes and standards to minimize the possibility and effects of fire and other hazards. All NFPA codes and standards can be viewed at no cost at www.nfpa.org/freeaccess.

Officials with Houston-based Magnum Hunter Resources say they hope to maintain a long-term relationship with southeast Ohio and northwestern West Virginia through the company's local subsidiary, Triad Hunter, LLC.
As a token of that commitment Magnum Hunter Chairman and CEO Gary Evans was on hand Monday for Triad Hunter's opening of new regional offices at 125 Putnam St. in downtown Marietta.
"We're proud to say the Appalachian area is probably among the largest Marcellus shale production areas in the U.S. And now with the Utica shale deposits, I believe Appalachia will become the hottest area in the country for oil and gas production," Evans told a crowd of state and local officials gathered in the entrance of the newly-renovated building near the corner of Putnam and Second streets.

The Marietta Times
Employees of Triad Hunter LLC have moved into their new office space at 125 Putnam St. in Marietta.
He said the company typically has to secure enough property to provide long-term opportunities for its horizontal hydraulic drilling operations, and has leased or purchased more than 85,500 acres of land containing Marcellus shale, and another 81,800 acres of Utica shale property in the Appalachian region.
"So we're looking many, many years ahead," Evans said, noting Triad Hunter has already spent more than $500 million in developing mineral interests and infrastructure in this region.
Triad Hunter currently has operations in Monroe, Noble and Washington counties in Ohio as well as Tyler and Wetzel counties in West Virginia.
Fact Box
Triad Hunter LLC comes to town
Triad Hunter LLC held a grand opening of the company's new regional offices at 125 Putnam St. in Marietta Monday.
Over the last three years the company has invested more than $500 million in mineral acquisition and infrastructure development related to oil and gas from Utica and Marcellus shale deposits in the Appalachian region.
Triad Hunter and other local divisions, including Alpha Hunter, Eureka Hunter, and Green Hunter Water, currently employ approximately 262 workers in the local area.
Triad Hunter is a subsidiary of Magnum Hunter Resources, headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Jim Denny, president and chief operating officer of Triad Hunter, LLC, noted the company's first two horizontal wells were drilled in Tyler County in the fall of 2010, and product from those facilities was on the market within 48 hours of completion of the drilling.
"This all started three years ago when we purchased Triad Resources (in Reno, from the late Kean Weaver)," he said. "We decided on a low-key entry into this area, knowing Kean Weaver was well-respected in the local community. And we wanted to build our own reputation here."
The Triad name and identity has been maintained in the community, and Triad Hunter kept all of the former company's employees on board.
"We started with a little under 100 people, and now there are 125," Denny said of Triad. "And that's not counting the recent acquisition of Viking International Resources Co., Inc. (Virco), that has added another 25 people."
In addition, Alpha Hunter, the company's drilling section, has 63 employees, pipeline division Eureka Hunter includes seven employees, and the water division, Green Hunter Water, has 68 workers.
The Putnam Street building that houses Chase Bank was purchased out of Kean Weaver's estate by Triad Hunter in September 2012. The company spent an estimated $1 million on acquisition and remodeling the three-story facility.
Forty employees moved into the building at the beginning of this month, Evans said.
"We wanted the employees to feel good about where they came to work," he said of the move into downtown Marietta. "At the Reno location they were working out of office trailers."
Evans said Triad Hunter officials have moved into some of the loft apartments on Front Street, and can literally walk to work now.
"This is a testimony of our commitment to the region and to this community," he said.
Ohio Rep. Andy Thompson, R-Marietta, was among those attending Monday's grand opening of the Triad Hunter office complex.
"This is a real opportunity for our local workforce talent, and a chance to bring back former Ohioans who have left this area for lack of employment options," he said. "And this is a massive workforce redevelopment opportunity."

|Check-in before
Located in central Supetar with walking distance to beaches and the ferry, this accommodation is a perfect hub for a Brac vacation.
The view from the terrace is scenic with a clear view of Split from the other side of the strait. The beds are comfortable and not as hard as a lot of beds are in these kind of accomodations. The kitchen, though small, works well to cook in. We cooked one meal a day here for almost two weeks without getting swamped. The host is nice and very helpful and sometimes unexpectedly gave us treats such as fresh lemonade or home baked cookies. We traveled with a 1 1\2 year old, which worked really well here, she had a crib of her own and loved both the host and the house cat!
A great place to stay in the summer.
Very friendly and nice host.
We spent a really good time in this flat, everything is close, beach, shops, bar..
good value for money. Relatively quiet suburb of Venice, wihin walking distance (30 mins) of Piazza St Marco. Very conventient public transport conection only 30 meters away (the orange line of the watertaxi to and from the airport Marco Polo). Also only 15 minutes away form trainstation (nice for a visit tu Padua for instance). A nice bottle of Prosecco as a welcoming gift.
Villa Nardi is a splendid occassion to see an italian house from inside! Really worth of the price if you travel to understand local culture. It is not a hotel room, nothing like BB standard. For those who have small children it is not good place - house is too big and children are affraid to be alone for night (story of contessa maybe not best advertisment...). It is very convinient location - easy travel to Padova and Venezia by bus, no need to search for parking place :) Big store close to villa. Needs internet ! In this time it is really everyday need ! We will come-back there.
First time in the St Moritz - we skiing in various places and now we were here.
This is a very nice place. We have a very good weather firstly for 10 years!
fantastic location, beautiful Old Prague apartment. big and spacious: pity there's only one bathroom and the WC is truly small and uncomfortable. characteristic furniture although sometimes broken. very efficient reception with nice people welcoming and helping you. we stayed in 5 adults.
Great location within 5-10 minutes walk to east croydon.Good walking distance to the shopping centre in Croydon. Apartment better then expected. Fully equipped, good heating. Had some problems connecting to the WiFi and to get hot water in the kitchen and sink I the bathroom, other then that,fully satisfied.
A great apartment well equipped good value for money, with a great view over the marina. This is the fifth time we have been to dives/ cabourg and would definitely stay here again.
The cottage is placed in a scenic surrounding. Even though there are many of them, you hardly recognize the summer houses with their grass roofs in the dunes. The architecture and interior design are nice and appropriate. - We had good luck because our stay was not during the main season, therefore it was quiet all around this week, and we just met two neighbours. The beach is not far away, and it is endless in both directions. - In some details, the cottage and its equipment should be renovated. Mainly the outworn mattresses caused inconvenience, and after our return a slightly bad smell in our clothes and luggage. Furthermore, the kitchen equipment was neither clean nor cutlery complete, therefore we started our holiday with dishwashing and sorting out the stuff we did not want to use for these days. - Nevertheless, it was a great stay, and we enjoyed being there.

SAN JOSE — San Jose State's offensive and defensive coordinators both acknowledged the possibility of joining Mike MacIntyre's new staff at Colorado.
The Denver Post reported that MacIntyre planned to bring defensive coordinator Kent Baer and offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren if the two assistants wanted to join him.
Baer, who is serving as the Spartans' interim head coach for the Military Bowl on Dec. 27, said it's likely he'll make the move. He was presumably a candidate to replace MacIntyre as head coach but SJSU hired Ron Caragher on Monday.
"There's a good chance," Baer said of going to Colorado. "You never know until you get on the airplane, but there's a good chance. It's going to be tough to leave this group but you've got to go where you've got a job." Offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren also spoke of possibly joining MacIntyre.
"The opportunity is there. We're still deciding what's best for my family," Lindgren said.
Caragher said Wednesday that he's in the process of assembling his coaching staff and has some offers out to coaches he's worked with in the past. He also indicated there will be some holdovers from the previous staff, citing the importance of continuity. Terry Malley, the Spartans' wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator, seems a likely candidate to remain with SJSU.

The Fastest Boat
this wiki
- "Every smuggler from here to Caracas has one dream...a faster boat! Now rumour has it that the boatyard has just completed such a vessel for some Costa Rican dickead. And Tommy...I want that boat!"
- ―Ricardo Diaz
The Fastest Boat is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by drug baron Ricardo Diaz in from his mansion in Starfish Island, Vice City.
According to Diaz, who is shooting birds with a shotgun due to the bird excrement on his vehicle, every smuggler from Vice City to Caracas wants only one thing - a faster boat. Apparently, the Vice City Boatyard has built a super fast boat (a Squalo) for a Costa Rican person and Diaz asks Tommy to steal the boat.
Drive to the Vice City Boatyard, there is one guy with a Ruger in the entrance, shoot him. Now, three more guys walking around will attack you, clear your way through them and get to the dock. There, kill all the men that come after you. When you've killed those guys, enter the main hangar.
You will have to use a nearby switch to lower the boat into the water, the switch is guarded by three guys wielding hammers. Kill the guys and go for the switch. Now that you've released the boat into the water, about twenty new guards will come after you. Shoot them one by one before they enter the hangar and get close to you or they'll be harder to get rid off. When the coast is clear, run to the boat and hop in.
Now that you're in the boat, you will get a three star wanted level, and you will have to drive the boat to Diaz's Mansion, but it's not that hard. Since the cops will only chase you in Predators which are easy to avoid, by water, Diaz's Mansion is very close and, above all, you're riding Vice City's fastest boat! When you get the boat to Diaz's Mansion the mission is complete.
Mission Objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to the boatyard at the docks and steal the fastest boat
- Find the switch to lower the boat
- Now get into the boat
- Get the boat to the mansion
The reward for completing this mission is $ 4000 and the missions Supply & Demand Autocide are unlocked.
- Due to the way the player enters boats, it is possible to enter the boat without lowering it, saving a lot of time and effort. If the player gets as close to the boat as possible, then tries to enter, they will be teleported into the boat, and can drive back to the mansion.
Post Mission Phone Call
- Mr. Black: Get to the payphone next to the Mall in Washington.

It is believed former assistant treasurer Barbara Mincks stole approximately $146,000 from the Marietta City school district over a period of five-and-a-half years, according to Treasurer Matt Reed.
Reed's comments came after Monday's regular board of education meeting, during which a resident questioned the district's procedures prior to the alleged thefts' discovery.
Mincks, a 28-year employee of the district, was charged in October with a third-degree felony count of theft in office after the state auditor's office uncovered evidence of a possible theft. A statement of facts filed by the Marietta Police Department accused her of taking more than $64,000 over two years but also indicated the thefts had been going on longer than that. Authorities have said she could face additional charges.
Reed said Monday the auditor's office had found an apparent starting point for the thefts, about five-and-a-half years ago, and that the total believed taken was just over $146,000.
During the public comment portion of the meeting, Marietta resident Angela Feathers asked questions about the district's procedures, including who reviewed purchase orders, who prints checks and who balanced bank statements.
"You don't go through and scan the checks," she said to Reed.
Fact Box
Next meeting
- 5:30 p.m. Dec. 17, Washington Elementary School.
"We do now," he replied.
Mincks allegedly re-issued checks to herself in place of long-outstanding checks that had not been cashed. Reed has said the district issues thousands of checks each month and they were not all physically reviewed.
On Monday, Feathers said she spoke to officials in the Zanesville and Upper Arlington school districts who indicated they do review individual checks.
"How many staff do Zanesville and Upper Arlington have?" Reed asked.
"At that point, it doesn't matter, Matt, because it's the taxpayers' money," Feathers said.
Feathers said in her business they track check numbers, but Reed noted that would not have uncovered these thefts, declining to say any more about how the thefts occurred.
"It's much more complicated than missing check numbers," board Vice President Wendy Myers said. "Our whole entire system will, of course, be overhauled."
Feathers emphasized she was not making a personal attack against Reed. The two talked after the meeting and agreed to meet to discuss the matter further.
In other business
Davis, 61, has been with the district for 28 years, starting as transportation director and eventually taking on the duties of building and grounds manager as well. As of Jan. 1, he will have a new title of facilities, transportation and safety director, formalizing some of the building safety duties he already oversees.
"You just step in and do what you gotta do to get the job done," he said.
In addition to collecting his pension, Davis will receive an annual salary of $49,900, down from the nearly $54,000 a year he currently receives. He will also pay twice as much of his insurance costs, according to district policy.
Superintendent Harry Fleming said the arrangement allows the district to save money while keeping an experienced employee.
"Dave is a dedicated employee of Marietta City Schools (and) does a lot of great things for this district," he said.
Davis said he wasn't really looking to retire but chose to do so to lock in his benefits before changes to the School Employees Retirement System take effect.
"Otherwise, who knows what it'll be?" he said.
While Davis is adding safety to his title, some of his transportation duties will be shifted to Charleton Brown, a district employee for more than 35 years who also will be retiring effective Dec. 31 and rehired as a receiving clerk and bus driver Jan. 1. His current salary was not immediately available Monday, but he will be returning to the first step of the salary scale, earning $13.31 an hour for his clerk duties and $13.61 as a bus driver.
Maintenance worker Rick Dennis, who has been with the district for more than 40 years, will also retire and return to step one on the pay scale as a maintenance specialist, making $14.56 an hour.
The retirements and rehirings were approved by votes of 4-0, with board President Greg Gault absent.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – No. 8/7 Kentucky women's basketball puts its four-game winning streak on the line when it travels to Baton Rouge, La., for a Sunday afternoon matinee with LSU at 2 p.m. CST/3 p.m. EST in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. The game will not be televised but broadcast live on the UK IMG Sports Radio Network with Neil Price.
Fans can also follow the UK Hoops team on Twitter at @UKHoopCats. Use the hashtag #UKHoops to comment on the game.
The Wildcats (23-3, 11-2), who currently sit in a tie for second place in the Southeastern Conference standings with No. 10/13 Texas A&M, travel to Baton Rouge, La., for the second of three straight road trips after defeating the Aggies on Monday 70-66 in College Station, Texas.
"This is a very important game for us Sunday in Baton Rouge," UK Hoops Coach Matthew Mitchell said. "LSU has an outstanding team. We will have to prepare well to beat them. We had a tough game with them here in Lexington. The final margin was not indicative of how difficult the game was. We will have our hands full, another real tough road test for us and we will have to respond to get a victory."
In the Jan. 27 matchup in Lexington, Ky., sophomore reserve center Azia Bishop (Toledo, Ohio) was crucial to the 73-60 win as she came off the bench for a career-high 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting in just 20 minutes of action. Junior forward Samarie Walker (West Carrollton, Ohio) also shined as she captured her ninth career double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds, while senior guard A'dia Mathies added 15 points.
"They are very, very talented and they have some explosive scorers at really three positions with Theresa Plaisance, and two of their guards, (Adrienne Webb) and (Danielle Ballard) are really, really just difficult players to deal with," Mitchell added. "They are three of the better offensive players in the league, they can put it on the floor and so I thought the first game they did a great job in trying to find some weak links in us and we had some struggles that day, so it will be imperative that we have great defensive preparation. Another thing is they are really battling for the NCAA Tournament and trying to get that berth. I know that's important for them with them hosting there in Baton Rouge. I just think it's going to be a real motivated group and a very talented group so it will be a tough game for us."
This game could also be significant in the UK record books as Mitchell, who has 137 wins in just six seasons as the head coach of the Wildcats, needs just one more to tie Terry Hall's record of 138 wins set from 1980-87. His winning percentage of 69.9 percent (137-59) already ranks first. Mitchell was just the third coach in UK Hoops history to record 100 wins and he earned that milestone in just 151 games, becoming the second-fastest coach to reach 100 victories.
The Wildcats look to carry the positive momentum from their last game vs. No. 10/13 Texas A&M into Sunday's matchup at LSU. Against the Aggies, junior DeNesha Stallworth (Richmond, Calif.) came up big as she flirted with a triple-double. The 6-foot-3 center charted her 20th career double-double, including eighth at UK with 12 points and 12 rebounds, while also swatting a school-record seven blocks. Mathies scored all 13 of her points in the decisive second half, and junior guard Kastine Evans (Salem, Conn.) scored a season-high tying 12 points in her fourth consecutive starting assignment. Walker had nine points and 11 rebounds as UK swept the series with A&M and charted its fourth win over a ranked opponent of the season.
Sunday will mark the 42nd meeting between the teams. LSU leads the all-time series 30-11, including a 12-3 advantage when playing in Baton Rouge. The Wildcats fell last season in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, 61-51. UK's last win in Baton Rouge was Jan. 28, 2010 (71-62).
Overall this season, Mathies leads UK and ranks second in the league (conference games only) in scoring, averaging 18.1 points per game. The preseason SEC Player of the Year currently ranks in the top 15 of six SEC statistical categories, including second in scoring (18.1) and 3-point field goal percentage (.448). She also ranks in the top 10 of 13 career lists at UK, including third in scoring (1,843) and steals (295). She needs just three points to move up to No. 2 on UK's all-time scoring list. Mathies is the only player in UK history to accumulate over 1,800 points, 500 rebounds, 300 assists and 250 steals in her career.
In the front court, Stallworth and Walker are giving Kentucky a dynamic inside presence this season. The duo combines to average 22.2 points, 14.8 rebounds and 3.2 blocks per game.
LSU (16-10, 7-6), tied for fifth in the SEC standing with Vanderbilt, is coming off a short turnaround after defeating Missouri in overtime on Friday afternoon, 78-74. The Lady Tigers' Thursday night matchup against Mizzou was scheduled for a 9 p.m. EST tip but was postponed until Friday at 2 p.m. EST due to a massive snow storm and a declared state of emergency in the state of Missouri. Close to 10 inches of snow fell in the Columbia area. Junior Theresa Plaisance scored a game-high 21 points and LSU hit 10-of-12 free throws in overtime to escape with the win.
Overall, Plaisance, a 6-foot-5 center, leads the Tigers in almost every statistical category, including scoring (17.7 ppg), rebounding (7.9 rpg), field goal percentage (.460) and blocks (2.8 bpg). She ranks second in the SEC in scoring and leads the league and ranks 13th nationally in blocks per game.
Two other players average in double-figure scoring in senior guard Adrienne Webb (14.1) and freshman guard Danielle Ballard (12.5). Senior guard Bianca Lutley follows close behind with 9.8 ppg.

They're working right now to get rid of a lingering smell in Augusta. News 12 is on your side with the cleanup to get rid of the smell. For the people who live and work in the area, it's been a bad day of guessing what could make it smell so bad.
In East Augusta, this constant thumping sound is a sign of progress. The slow process of removing 10,000 gallons of oil from a leaky, rusty tank.
"We've tried to put a patch on the leak and we did get a patch on there, but it's continuing to leak and we're going to be getting rid of the waste water to the oil," said Jeff Darley, Environmental Protection Division.
The smell lingers and spreads over several city blocks. And so everyone spent the day wondering, what's the smell?
"It really smells strong, she thought it was old onions, but it do smell like gas," said George O'Bryant.
"It's got some type of oil smell to it, from a rear end of a vehicle," said Steve Justice, Augusta.
Crews stand in knee-high concoction of oil and water, trying to contain what's already escaped. Both tanks were built in the 1930's, and for the last several years have gone without maintenance.
"The tanks are essentially abandoned. They were leased by Alternative Energy Resources, who has since gone bankrupt," Darley said.
And that's now left hundreds in a smelly situation.
"I wouldn't want to stand around here smelling it all day, I can tell you that," Justice said.
And after standing out here myself for several hours, it might start to get on people's nerves. The smell gets into your clothing and hangs around even after you leave the area.

A Brevard man was arrested Saturday evening hours after police say he robbed and shot a man inside a home on Neely Road.
Derrick Anthony Hayes, 19, was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, inflicting serious bodily injury and robbery.
The robbery and shooting took place early Saturday morning, said Brevard Police Department Detective Lt. Steve Woodson.
The victim, a middle-aged man, was wounded in the shooting, but his status was withheld as the investigation continues.
Hayes was taken to the Transylvania County Detention Center, and bond was set at $150,000.

Connected Learning—The opportunity to go beyond theory and take learning to the real world.
To learn, explore, and discover what really matters, students need to make a connection. That's exactly what happens at Southern Oregon University.
For SOU students, learning goes far beyond the classroom. SOU professors encourage students to put into practice what they are learning, preparing them to learn more deeply and make immediate contributions when they enter the work force.
Through connected learning experiences—including internships, mentor relationships, field study, capstone experiences, volunteerism, civic engagement—SOU students translate learning into meaning as they apply classroom theory to the world around them. Beyond their own learning, they can be leaders, a force for change in the community, bringing a fresh and informed perspective to real challenges.
That doesn't happen just anywhere—it happens at SOU.
Any university can teach theory.
SOU Archaeology students and Southern Oregon Historical Society volunteers dug on the site of the historic Peter Britt homestead in Jacksonville, Oregon, last winter.
Britt was an early pioneer in the Rogue River Valley. Student archaeologists worked to find remnants of his life—successfully locating the original foundation of the building and gaining hands-on experience.
Ashley Shernosky, an SOU senior, told the Medford Mail Tribune the work was a labor of love.
"I love that archaeology makes your imagination run wild—you can almost imagine the people and the time and what life was like," she said.

LOS ANGELES -- Oakland solar company BrightSource Energy said Spain's Abengoa SA would become a partner in its 500 megawatt Palen project in the California desert.
The two companies will work jointly to permit and finance the solar thermal project, which will be built, operated and maintained by Abengoa. The plant will use BrightSource's technology and design.
Construction on the $2.6 billion plant is expected to begin at the end of 2013, the companies said in a statement on Friday. It is expected to go into service in 2016. BrightSource would not say which utility will buy the power produced by the plant.
BrightSource acquired the Palen project last year from insolvent German company Solar Millennium AG. The project has already been permitted by the California Energy Commission, but BrightSource is now seeking approval to use a solar thermal technology that is different from Solar Millennium's.
The Palen project will consist of two 250 MW solar plants that produce steam from the sun's heat to generate electricity. At each plant, elevated mirrors called heliostats will focus the sun's rays on a solar receiver located atop a 750-foot "power tower" near the center of a field of mirrors.
In general, solar thermal technology has faced competition from increasingly cheap photovoltaic solar panels. Several big solar projects underway in California switched plans to using PV technology from solar thermal because of the lower cost.
Solar thermal power plants use the sun's heat to produce power, while PV panels use sunlight.
The Palen project will be located on federal lands in Riverside County. It is expected to produce enough electricity to power 200,000 homes.
BrightSource, a small venture-backed company based in Oakland, has raised more than $615 million in equity financing to date. It withdrew a planned initial public offering last year due to weak market conditions.
BrightSource is more than 20 percent owned by French power equipment maker Alstom SA. Other investors include VantagePoint Capital Partners, DBL Investors, Goldman Sachs Inc , Chevron Technology Ventures and BP Ventures .
The company's first major project, the $2.2 billion Ivanpah plant in California, is nearly complete. The 377 MW plant is backed by a $1.6 billion government loan guarantee.

PABLO, MONTANA 59855 ISSN: 0528-8592 VOLUME 10 NUMBER MOON OF THE HALF SUMMER-HALF AUTUMN OCTOBER 15,1980 (mtSL) Quarterly Concentrates on Trees and Roads The fourth quarterly Council meeting for 1980 began late (9 a.m. was apparently translated to 10:20 a.m. "Indian time") and ended early with little accomplished but a lot discussed: The biggest topic of the day was trees — who can cut where, what and when, and then how can the stuff be hauled out of the woods, by logging truck (which means you need a loader and a "cat", too) or only by pickup truck? Can it then be sold to the public — Indian or non — or can it only be used for heating the cutter's home? Another question was why does Forestry burn what it considers "junk wood" when the stuff could just as easily be piled by the roadside to be salvaged by tribal members? Since no one from Forestry was present to explain any of these things, everyone was invited to attend the regular council meeting on October 17 where they might get some answers. Road closures were another "hot" topic. Initially meant as a game conservation and anti-white-poaching measure, the closures — variously called Kelly humps, harassment bumps, water bars and/or Dupuis ditches — are backfiring on the tribal membership. "Why does the Tribe have to accept all this b—s— from those college boys?" One irate fellow challenged. "You're closing the members in, making prisoners of us," said another. Forestry may answer this one, too, on the 17th. The current status of the Kerr Dam license was also mentioned briefly. Executive Secretary Fred Houle, Jr., explained that the Energy Commission would probably hold a hearing on the matter some time next year; it could be 2 to 3 years before a decision is made between the applications to run the dam submitted by the Tribes and MPC. Finally, Tribal Social Services (TSS) Director Opal Cajune (Continued on page 3) Inside this issue ATTENTION, THINNERS: You are cordially invited to attend a meeting with the Tribal Council to discuss the thinning program as it is presently being operated by the Forestry Department. All phases of the program will be considered. The meeting will be in the Council Chambers at Pablo on Monday, Oct. 20, 1980, at 10 a.m. Please make plans to attend. Thomas E.

SNOWMASS VILLAGE - When dining out, it's not unusual to choose a combination of dishes and separate them by course: appetizer first, then salad, then entree and dessert. But is it unusual to do the same with your cocktails? According to bartender Ben Seebeck over at the Artisan restaurant, where the extensive, small-batch and infused cocktail list has become quite the complement to chef Randall Baldwin's handcrafted plates, it's the only way to get the most out of your dining experience.
Moving away from the new-age style cocktails, where liquors are paired with artificial mixers and sweeteners, Ben is following the route of many in the area by returning to the "Prohibition-esque" way of craft mixology, where the priority is the taste of the liquor itself as opposed to the "drowning out" way of sugared blenders. The result: traditional taste with modern flair, satisfying the palates of every patron who steps through the door.
To provide a taste of this improved craft of mixing, shaking and serving, Ben whipped me up the latest addition to the winter cocktail menu, the "Peachstreet Crusta."
Snowmass Sun: Can you tell me a little bit about this drink and how it got its name?
Ben Seebeck: The Peachstreet Crusta is a play on a traditional brandy crusta, where I substituted Peach Street's peach-infused brandy from the distillery in Palisade, Colo., as the main base for the drink. It is then shaken with Cointreau Luxardo (a maraschino-flavored liqueur), fresh squeezed lemon juice and peach bitters. It is served up in a martini glass with a sugared rim and lemon twist.
SS: You mentioned the idea of putting a spin on Prohibition cocktails, using all fresh juices and craft and premium liquors. Is this theme persistent in all your specialty drinks?
BS: We have changed up our drink list extensively from the summer, getting rid of the sweeter, lighter drinks and focusing more on heavier cocktails with flavored liqueurs with only a fruit backbone to balance the high alcohol content in the drinks. Most of our cocktails were created under this theme but were not created to pair with menu items. Our new cocktails are meant to be sipped, and will last longer as they have complex flavors and are stronger than most bar offerings here in Snowmass.
SS: So at what point in the meal should the Peachstreet Crusta be enjoyed? Can you recommend a dish to pair with it?
BS: I would say it's meant to be enjoyed before the main course, most likely with an appetizer. The natural sweetness of the brandy would pair very well with the richness of our new menu item, pork cheek mac n' cheese, and also with our housemade gnocchi.
SS: Between the menu and the cocktails, how would you describe the style of the Artisan? Has much changed since the arrival of chef Baldwin?
BS: Aside from the addition of new menu items, and in turn new cocktails, the style of the Artisan remains the same. The Artisan offers a unique experience for guests - we are one of the last restaurants in town that still has the "old Snowmass" vibe, as we always try to cater to locals and love our repeat business. We also offer our full menu at the bar and always have a very nice, relaxed vibe for dinner service.
SS: As a local or guest who wants to stop in and try some of these new cocktails and maybe get a bite to eat, when's the best time to come by?
BS: Probably during happy hour, from 3 to 5:30. We offer 50 percent off all our glass pours on wine and 50 percent off all our craft draft beer and well cocktails. This is a great time to come enjoy some very nice products, especially after just coming off the mountain.

The single most amazing aspect of last week's election results is that there are, much to my dismay, Americans who still believe it is a winning strategy to hope for our country to fail across the board.
I am absolutely dumbfounded by such stubborn ignorance that can serve no purpose other than to placate narcissistic rage.
How do these people sleep at night? Hanging upside down, perhaps?
The businesses that immediately fired employees last week and directly blamed the election were merely waiting until after the election to do so.
It should not slip past anyone with more common sense than an illegal attempt to vote that they conveniently made sure the media was aware of their stunt before passing out the pink slips.
"Look at me! I'm having to fire these good folks because you (pointing a crooked finger straight towards a camera lens) voted for that socialist to stay in office!"
"Um, boss, that's a kid with an iPhone. The TV camera's over this way ..."
"Hey mister, you got spit all over my camera!"
Believing these employees would not be fired if Romney won is like believing the so-called fiscal cliff did not exist until Nov. 7.
First of all, it's not a cliff, but a gradually progressive, hopefully never-ending, highway of national existence covered with more and more potholes as we expand forward and grow.
If the road were easy, we would all just meet alongside the shoulder in a ditch every evening holding hands and singing campfire songs, but reality has a nasty habit of hitting Americans on the head every time we become too complacent or delusional.
And delusions are apparently ruling the right side of the road nowadays.
On Jan. 1 we say adios to the Bush tax rates, the 2011 payroll tax cuts and the emergency unemployment benefits while simultaneously saying hello to a more thorough alternative minimum tax and $984 billion in defense and other painful automatic spending cuts.
That's a lot of cuts, but they are needed.
Kicking the can down the road (which is what Congress appears to be on the verge of doing) is nothing more than adding weights to the chain of national debt already hanging around our kids' necks.
If you live inside a bubble long enough, you will inevitably forget there is a world outside the bubble. But this is a bubble that needs bursting, and the quicker the better.
Yes, the sacrifices will be many. Unemployment will rise ,and the stock market will sink, but these are the cuts that we've all been clamoring for these last few years. Now that the time is here, how dare we change our minds because we're suddenly too afraid to deal with the consequences.
Listen, Paul Ryan was little more than Sarah Palin in a jock strap, and the fact that David Petraeus couldn't keep the little general in his pants is no excuse for more conspiratorial nonsense to waste our time.
Either we care as a nation to continue climbing out of this mess that began (in earnest) in 2007 or we keep pulling each other down in some misguided and vain attempt to win playing political King of the Hill.
It's hard to believe this is still an actual choice for some.

How to Make a Paracord Bracelet
How to Make a Paracord Bracelet
- Step 1 .)
Measure your wrist. Multiply this measurement by four. Cut two lengths of paracord to this measurement.
- Step 2 .)
Hold the lengths of paracord together and fold them in half. Tie the paracords around the dowel in hitch knots, as shown. Place the hitch knots in the center of the dowel. Line up the four weaving lengths of paracord under the hitch knots.
- Step 3.)
Grasp the cord on the outside left---this is the number 1 position. Working left to right, take the number 1 cord behind the number 2 cord, in front of number 3, and behind number 4. Pull the cord tightly upward to the right, so that it's now in the number 4 position. As you repeat this weaving technique, the cords will continue to rotate positions. Each time, you will grasp the cord in the number 1 position and weave it along to the number 4 position.
- Step 4.)
Repeat step 3 until only a few inches of each cord are left unwoven. Test the length of the bracelet by wrapping it around your wrist. When it encircles your wrist with 2 inches of excess, tie a temporary knot to secure the ends.
- Step 5.)
Slide the hitch knots off the dowel. This will result in four loops on this end of the bracelet.
- Step 6.)
Untie the temporary knot from step 4. Bring the four ends around to the loops so the woven paracord forms a circle. Separate the ends so two are on the left and two on the right, as shown.
- Step 7.)
Insert one of the left-hand ends through each of the four loops, from left to right. Then insert one of the right-hand ends through the four loops, right to left. Pull these two ends tight.
- Step 8.)
Insert the remaining left-hand end through each of the four loops, and repeat with the final right-hand end. These ends will be harder to push through the loops because there will be less room, but you should be able to do it with some effort. Pull the ends very tight once you've pushed them all through.
- Step 9.)
Clip the ends they're even with the loops. Don't leave any excess paracord protruding.
- Step 10.)
Use the lighter flame to melt the paracord ends on each side of the loops. This secures the ends to prevent them coming loose.Read More

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — A ruling handed down this week by a Washoe County District Court judge partially affirms Incline Village residents' challenge earlier this year of the rate of interest to be paid on $43 million in Supreme Court-ordered refunds.
Judge Brent Adams' three-page order on Monday rules that a 6 percent interest rate be applied to all Incline property tax overpayments made prior to July 1, 2011, for the 2006-07 year. Furthermore, Adams ruled that a 3 percent interest rate be used after that date for each refund.
According to previous reports, the Nevada Legislature in 2011 passed Assembly Bill 504, which Gov. Brian Sandoval signed into law on June 17. The bill, which revises provisions governing delinquent taxes and refunds, went into effect July 1, 2011.
The bill changes the interest rate that is paid along with a tax refund to .25 percent per month (or 3 percent annually). Prior to the bill, the rate was .50 percent per month, or 6 percent annually.
The litigation filed in early March 2012 by a group of residents including members of the Village League to Save Incline Assets asked Adams to rule that Washoe County Treasurer Tammi Davis stick with the 6 percent rate when doling out all refunds.
Davis and the county opposed the motion, and while waiting for a ruling, Davis suspended the process of including interest in her calculations of refunds when issuing checks to the some 8,700 parcels due a payback.
Adams' ruling on Monday also orders Davis to cease the suspended payments. For parcel owners who've received a refund check sans interest, Davis must "calculate the interest due ... and remit the amount to the respective taxpayer."
The ruling marks the latest chapter in the Incline Village tax revolt that reached new heights on July 7, 2010, when a Nevada Supreme Court ruling affirmed a 2009 district court decision ordering the Washoe County treasurer to refund about 8,700 local property owners for taxes they paid for the 2006-07 fiscal year.
According to the county, as of June 12, 2012, nearly 30 percent of refunds have been paid back, to 2,564 parcels. The dollar amount refunded is about $21.5 million.
In a Tuesday phone interview, Davis said her office anticipates it will have all the refunds finished by a district court-ordered deadline of 5 p.m. on Aug. 23, 2013.
"I think we will still be in shape to meet that date," said Davis, adding that she will begin including interest as part of the outstanding refunds, in accordance with Adams' ruling, by the end of July.
Maryanne Ingemanson, president of the Village League, said she and the league was pleased with Adams' ruling. Still, she remains skeptical of the county's payback plan, which she said will likely stretch all the way to the August 2013 deadline.
"It's disheartening that these refunds are not being paid back precipitously," she said Wednesday. "It appears they are taking as long as the court will allow them, and that causes great frustration."

Pagination and page breaks
You can view your document in two different formats: Paginated view and Compact view. With these two views, you can have a better idea of what your document will look like when it's printed out.
Paginated view shows you a document broken into pages. Headers, footers, and the margins between pages are displayed in this view, mimicking a printed document.
In Compact view, headers, footers, and the margins between pages are hidden. Instead of a break in the document, the end of a page is marked with a horizontal line.
Switch between paginated and compact view
The default setting for a document is paginated view. To change the view of your document to compact view, click the View menu > choose Compact controls. To return to paginated view, click the Show the menu icon in the top-right corner of the document.
Printing and pagination
When you select Paginated view, the document looks similar to how it will look when you print it out. You can print your document by clicking the File menu and selecting Print. In Chrome, your document will print just as you see it on your screen. If you're printing from another browser like Firefox or Safari, selecting File > Print will download a PDF copy of your document which you can print.
To adjust the page size of the document in Paginated view and in the printed copy, you can click the File menu and select Page setup.
If you're in Compact view, each horizontal line indicates a page break; this view shows each individual page in a printed copy.
Footnotes and pagination
Paginated view displays footnotes in the same way as they'll print out at the bottom of a page. To see a footnote, double-click the corresponding footnote number in the body of the document.
Compact view shows the footnote numbers in the body of the document, but hides the footnote at the bottom of each page. If you insert a footnote in Compact view, you'll automatically be switched to Paginated view.
Inserting a page break
While editing a document you can insert a page break to start working on the next page. This is useful if you want to break up an idea, text or set an image apart from text in your document.
To insert a page break, click the Insert menu and select Page break. You can remove a page break just as you'd remove other content -- by highlighting the page break and pressing the Backspace or Delete key.

EAST COUNTY -- If you can drive and have a couple of hours free, Meals on Wheels wants to talk.
The nonprofit relies on volunteers to deliver daily meals to low-income, homebound seniors throughout the county, and the need for that help in East County is particularly acute, said Program Manager Sharon Fitzgerald, who oversees service from Bay Point to Antioch.
That area has 80 drivers for 16 routes -- each has a different volunteer every day -- but at least 20 of them cancel each week and some back out on the day they're supposed to work, Fitzgerald said.
"The substitute drivers are saints, they really are," she said.
To bolster its resources, Meals on Wheels is looking for 10 more people willing to spend two hours once a week dropping off prepared food for up to 16 seniors.
Fitzgerald also needs 10 individuals willing to step in when the regular drivers can't make it.
Volunteers use their own vehicles, which must be insured. They also are required to attend a one-hour orientation.
In return, they have the satisfaction of knowing that they're feeding both body and spirit.
"Meals on Wheels is so much more than the nutrition," Fitzgerald said. "It also is companionship because many of our seniors live by themselves. This may be the only person they see all day."
The chronic shortage of drivers isn't the only challenge Meals of Wheels is facing; budget cuts at the federal level earlier this year resulted in a loss of about $89,000 to the organization, which contracts with the county.
Although well over half of Meals on Wheels' funding comes from donations, including whatever the seniors themselves can afford to pay, the nonprofit also receives help from all levels of government.
The county was overextended even before the reduction, and this forced it to reduce Meals on Wheels services for the first time in the nonprofit's 46-year history, said Paul Kraintz, director of the county's senior nutrition program.
On May 1 he placed a freeze on Meals on Wheels' client list, allowing it to accept only seniors in the most dire circumstances until attrition reduced their numbers.
Over the past 2½ months the approximately 1,500 meals the organization delivered daily dropped to 1,300, prompting Kraintz on Friday to lift the restriction on newcomers.
Meals on Wheels still must be careful about how many new clients it accepts, however, and it will give priority to the very low-income who can't afford a caregiver.
Fitzgerald looks back on the last few months with regret, noting that she had no choice but to turn needy seniors away --139 people are now on the waiting list for her area, including 86 in Bay Point, Pittsburg and Antioch.
"It's been awful, I have to tell you," she said. "I felt like the executioner."

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (January 17, 2013)--House Republicans say they may seek a short-term extension of the government's debt limit in the next few weeks, a move that would avert an immediate default by the Treasury.
U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan provided no details about the possible duration of any extension or conditions that might be attached as he appeared at a news conference during a break at a three-day retreat of the rank and file in historic Williamsburg, Va.
He spoke as Republicans sought to unify for this spring's budget struggles, looking for ways to maximize their leverage in talks with President Barack Obama over spending cuts.
Meanwhile U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, called on the president Thursday to submit a formal request or indicate how much he will need.

Zesty Cauliflower And Tomato Salad
Instead I'll just promise you that this salad is going to be refreshing and light-tasting and delight all you warm weather whiners.
Let's start with the dressing, shall we?
Italian Dressing Mix (adapted from allrecipes.com)
1 TBSP garlic powder
1 TBSP onion powder
1 TBSP Splenda (or sugar)
2 TBSP dried oregano leaves
1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried basil
1 TBSP dried parsley
1/4 tsp celery salt
2 TBSP kosher salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Mix all the spices together in a small bowl. Place in an airtight container and store for future batches of dressing. You're only going to need 1 TBSP for this recipe.
2 TBSP white vinegar
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 TBSP water
1 TBSP of the above spice mix
Place ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid and shake well to combine. Store in refrigerator until ready to make salad. (It actually tastes better if you can make the dressing a day ahead, but you can also add it immediately to the vegetables as long as you refrigerate the entire salad for several hours to marry the flavors.)
Assembling the salad:
1/2 large head of cauliflower, cut into small florets
1 cup of diced sweet onion
3 medium tomatoes, cored and seeded, diced
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (I also shaved a few slices for the top to make it pretty!)
Combine all vegetables in a large bowl. Pour dressing over the vegetables and stir well to combine. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and stir to combine. Refrigerate for several hours before serving.

ASHLAND — Southern Oregon University's top-ranked 125-pounder, Mitchell Lofstedt, was named the NAIA national wrestler of the week for the second time in three weeks after another dominant showing.
Lofstedt improved his season record to 26-1 with five victories in three days last week, including three consecutive wins against NCAA Division I opponents to win his division at the California Collegiate Open on Saturday.
Lofstedt opened the week with a technical fall over Simpson's (Calif.) Hayden Zimmerman on Jan. 31, then knocked off then-No. 15 Drake Medieros of Menlo (Calif.), 9-2, on Feb. 1. The wins improved his season record against NAIA opponents to 10-0.
Lofstedt wrapped up the week with three wins at the California Collegiate Open against Kyle Anderson of Cal State Bakersfield, Britain Longmire of Cal Poly and top-seeded Patrick Rollins of Oregon State.
He has three individual titles this season with previous victories coming at the Southern Oregon Open and the Embry-Riddle (Ariz.) Mile High Open.
A two-time NAIA national champion, Lofstedt will compete at Southern Oregon's Bob Riehm Arena for the final time this weekend as the Raiders will host Simpson at 7 tonight and Pacific at 6 p.m. on Saturday.

You can add as many computers as you like this way and you don't have to screw with ps3ms at all except a restart to update the shares. Their might be a way to do that without restarting, Im pretty new with ps3ms
