Excellent wetland conditions have set the stage for above-average waterfowl production
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - June 30, 2011 - The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released its preliminary report today on breeding ducks and habitats, based on surveys conducted in May and early June. Total duck populations were estimated at 45.6 million breeding ducks on the surveyed area. This estimate represents an 11 percent increase over last year's estimate of 40.9 million birds and is 35 percent above the 1955-2010 long-term average. This was only the fifth time in the survey's history that the total duck population exceeded 40 million.
"The FWS has reported nearly unprecedented waterfowl habitat conditions and breeding duck population levels for 2011—the best in several years for some areas," said Ducks Unlimited's Chief Scientist Dale Humburg. "Full wetlands and good upland cover will likely support a strong breeding effort, particularly in the prairies this year."
Habitat conditions across the U.S. and Canadian prairies and parklands were considered excellent. Further north, wetland conditions in most boreal regions of Alaska and northern Canada were good to very good at the time of the survey. During the survey and into early summer, many regions important to breeding ducks continued to receive significant snow melt and further precipitation, which could increase later breeding efforts and ensure brood survival. If these wet conditions continue, prospects going into the winter and possibly into spring 2012 will be favorable as well.
In addition to extensive grassland cover, one of the most important elements in duck breeding success is the amount of water present in portions of prairie and parkland Canada and the north-central United States. Total pond counts for the United States and Canada combined showed 8.1 million ponds, a 22 percent increase from last year's estimate and 62 percent above the long-term average. This was the second time in the survey's history that ponds exceeded 8 million.
Of the 10 species traditionally reported, eight were similar to or increased in number from 2010. Two species (scaup and American wigeon) remained below their long-term average. Northern shovelers, blue-winged teal and northern pintails were bright spots on this year's survey. Northern shovelers and bluewings reached record highs (4.6 and 8.9 million, respectively), and northern pintail numbers surpassed 4 million for the first time since 1980. Scaup numbers were similar to 2010 and remain below their long-term averages. Only three species—scaup, northern pintail and American wigeon—remain below North American Waterfowl Management Plan population goals.
"This year I am reminded again of what happens when survey timing, habitat conditions, populations and weather line up to produce a really favorable report," said Humburg.
"As a waterfowler, I'm optimistic about today's report. However, unprecedented water conditions are only part of the story. Water without nesting cover does little to improve the future of waterfowl," said Ducks Unlimited's CEO Dale Hall. "As good as the news is this week, waterfowl and prairie habitats continue to face significant long-term threats. Grassland habitat is under siege on many fronts and is being lost at alarming rates. Key public policies such as the Farm Bill and North American Wetlands Conservation Act will need to continue to focus on conservation for the good news to carry into the future. That's our challenge in years to come."
Nesting cover across the Prairie Pothole Region continues to decline, particularly on the U.S. side of the border. During the survey, observers noted many large tracts of former Conservation Reserve Program grasslands that had been converted to cropland since last year or were in the process of being plowed. Expiring CRP contracts and high commodity prices driven by biofuel demands and other economic factors are pushing these conversions. North Dakota alone has lost 22% of its CRP acres since 2007. Experts project that another 387,000 acres will be lost in 2010-2011 and more than 1 million acres will be lost in 2012-13. The continued loss of critical nesting cover will negatively impact the future of breeding ducks.
As always, fall weather and habitat conditions along migration routes will have a big impact on migration chronology and local hunting success.
"I encourage everyone to celebrate this year's good news as we recommit to the long-term conservation of waterfowl and waterfowl habitat," said Humburg. "In light of a very favorable breeding ground report, it's still quite a while before we can put out the decoys. We will have to monitor how broods fare this summer and what impact summer flooding has on many migration and wintering areas before we get better insight into what to expect this fall."
The FWS spring surveys provide the scientific basis for many management programs across the continent including the setting of hunting regulations. The four Flyway Councils will meet in late July to recommend and adopt the season structure and bag limits for 2011-12. Individual states will make their specific selections within a federal framework of season length, bag limit, and outside dates. Hunters should check their state's rules for final dates.
Ducks Unlimited is the world's largest non-profit organization dedicated to conserving North America's continually disappearing waterfowl habitats. Established in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has conserved more than 12 million acres thanks to contributions from more than a million supporters across the continent. Guided by science and dedicated to program efficiency, DU works toward the vision of wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow, and forever.

Abigail Fillmore First Spouse Gold Coin
First Lady, 1850–1853
Born in 1798 in Saratoga County, N.Y., Abigail Powers Fillmore developed a passion for learning early in life. Financial circumstances forced her to begin working at the age of 16 as a teacher while she continued her own education. While teaching at the New Hope Academy in Sempronius, N.Y., she met her future husband Millard Fillmore.
After their marriage, she continued to teach for another two years until their first child was born, making her the first presidential spouse to hold a paying job after her marriage. Throughout her life, she continued her zeal for self-improvement by reading voraciously, attending lectures and congressional debates, and participating in political discussions.
Reverse Design
Perhaps her most lasting contribution as first lady was her work in establishing a permanent White House library, for which President Fillmore asked Congress to appropriate funds. With $2,000 authorized for the project, Mrs. Fillmore acquired several hundred volumes to start the collection in a second floor oval parlor. Here, she enjoyed entertaining such guests as authors Washington Irving, Charles Dickens and William Makepeace Thackeray.
Mrs. Fillmore also spent many hours selecting and arranging books for the library. The reverse (tails) design depicts Mrs. Fillmore shelving books in the library that she established at the White House.

The physical fitness community has rallied behind popular instructor Sharon Gatenby and her husband Paul as they keep vigil in a Canberra hospital for their seriously injured son.
Currowan Creek's Mitchell Gatenby, 18, was badly hurt in a vehicle accident on Runnyford Rd, near Nelligen, on Sunday.
Mrs Gatenby is a respected instructor at Batemans Bay's One Life Gym and spokesman Mace Innes said staff had organised an appeal to help her family with travel and medical expenses.
"It is hard not to be able to go to work and to operate their life as they normally would," Mr Innes said.
"We are trying as a workplace to help out, but this has touched more than the staff. There are a lot of members who enjoy Sharon's classes and really respect her."
He said Mrs Gatenby had worked at One Life since it opened more than three years ago, but had also worked at the gym that previously occupied the premises.
Mr Innes said Mrs Gatenby had helped thousands of people over the years.
"It has been very sad," Mr Innes said.
"Sharon talks about Mitch quite often in her classes, so we all feel as though we know him quite well. It has really touched everyone here. She has hundreds through every day. It is fantastic to see everyone get behind in this. We have a collection bin up the front and I have had to empty it a few times because it was too full."
Mitchell's father Paul was awarded an Australian Bravery Medal in August when he risked his life to save the driver of a petrol tanker that plunged from the highway above into his backyard in 2004.
Grateful family says thanks
Mitchell Gatenby's family have thanked the Nelligen and Batemans Bay communities and Canberra hospital for their support since the teenager was seriously hurt in a motor vehicle collision with a truck on Sunday afternoon.
"We have a pretty busted up boy," Paul Gatenby said of his 18-year-old son.
With Mitchell facing several months in hospital and many operations for multiple broken bones and joints, as well as skin grafts, the community has rallied behind the Currowan Creek family.
Paul and his wife Sharon became emotional at the news of a fundraising appeal at One Life Gym, where Mrs Gatenby works and other community support.
Family friends will meet on Friday at 7pm at Nelligen's Steampacket Hotel to form a committee to support the family in the coming months and supporters should contact Darryl Bossley on 4478 1000.
"It is fantastic and we thank everyone," Mrs Gatenby said.
"Mitchell and Sharon and I can't thank people enough," his father said.
"We have had a lot of support. We almost lost him."
Mitchell was taken by helicopter to Canberra on Sunday afternoon and underwent surgery yesterday. He is scheduled for another operation tomorrow.
"He probably has another six operations before they can start the skin grafts," Mr Gatenby said.
Mitchell suffered serious injuries to the right side of his body, including a broken hip, leg, elbow and foot injuries.
A rod has been inserted in his leg.
"But he has no brain damage, no spinal, no internal injury," a relieved Mr Gatenby said.
"We are so lucky. They are a good crew up here and his orthopaedic surgeons assure me they can fix him."

CHAR-KOOSTA Newspaper of the Confederated Saiish & Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Indian Reservation VOLUME 13 NUMBER 23 THE MONTH OF THE GEESE MARCH 19, 1985 Three state legislators initiate meeting with Tribal Council For the first time in recent memory *, some of the Reservation's representatives to the state legislature met with the Tribal government to ask about Indian concerns. Representative Ray Harbin (St. Ignatius), and Senators Ethel Harding (Poison) and Dick Pinsoneault (St The name Char-Koosta is derived from Chief Charlo's and Chief Koostatah's names. They were the Tribes' last traditional chiefs. Ignatius) met with the Tribal Council in Pablo on the morning of March 1. Pinsoneault had made the request for time on the agenda AH three noted that well over 1,000 laws had been proposed during the legislature's first 45 days of work. Of particular interest to the Tribes, Harbin supposed, would be progress reports on education, highway improvement, streambed access and Flathead Lake's pollution problems. Harding and Pinsoneault added to that list state support of the Job Corps program, weed control, water rights, and unused state lands on reservations. Pinsoneault said daily progress re- ports about all of the proposed bills were available on a computer. Access is through each bill's number or its sponsor's name. (The Tribes' legal offices house a computer that monitors both state and federal actions.) Jim Steele (Arlee) asked that someone look into how the Montana High School Association was managed, in light of Two Eagle's recent problems with it. (See the story on page 5.) Ron Therriault (St. Ignatius) asked Senator Harding if she had heard any negative remarks about the Tribal government, about its stand on conservation, for example. She said she hadn't. (Concludes on page two) 0) O (fi Public invited to learn about clear - cuts Nobody, except maybe loggers, likes clear - cuts. They wreck wildlife habitat, contribute to erosion and just plain look ugly. Unfortunately, they're said to be the most effective way of controlling certain timber diseases. When root rot strikes, for example, it's often a case of cut the trees down now while they can be used for lumber, or wait and watch them blow down or burn up later. Clear - cutting and other forestry matters will be headlining the agenda of the March 22 Council meeting. BIA Forestry has arranged a presentation for 10 am to inform the Tribal Council and the public about mistletoe, root rot and the visual impact of clear - cutting. All Tribal members interested in the Reservation's forest resource - and that should be everyone because it contributes so much to the quality of life here - are urged to attend the meeting:! 0 am., Friday, March 22, in the Council chambers (on the groundfloor of the two - story annex) in Pablo. Next district meeting: March 27. See page two for details.

Thursday August 18, 2011
South Aiken, SC--In his first year at the helm at South Aiken, Jeremy West couldn't have had a tougher season. The Thoroughbreds were winless but that could change in a hurry.
First and foremost a total of 18 starters returned off a squad that was basically a glorified JV team as West described them. A year wiser, a year smarter and now in year two of his tenure as head coach has everyone on the same page. Of course the kids are also playing with a huge chip on their shoulder to make sure last year becomes a figment of their imagination.
"My expectations are to win." said coach Jeremy West " I didn't like what I went through last year but I really think last year will benefit us. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you make your rise to the top and our kids don't like the taste of it and have worked hard ever since."
"We expect them to think we'll be an easy game, but we've shocked a lot of teams in our scrimmages and stuff." added Josh Brown
Josh Brown will be a big part of the defense and is one of the more highly recruited talents around. He's huge so why shouldn't he be? This year's T-breds might just surprise a lot of folks. They have a new attitude and need to approach games more aggressive.
"Well we're a team here and we're going to take what the defense gives us on offense and be aggressive on defense and try to exploit weaknesses." added coach West
"We're really a contender, we're going to fight every play." said Brown "That's the main thing about us, we're going to be fighting. We're going to hit you the first play but stay out there the whole game though."
South Aiken starts the year at Richland North east before hosting Midland Valley in week two. If they come up with wins early, they'll serve notice to the rest of the area.

SACRAMENTO -- This season's influenza has claimed the lives of 56 more young and middle-aged Californians, bringing the total number killed this season to 202, nearly 50 percent more than last year's early February total. Another 41 deaths are awaiting confirmation.
Most of the deaths were among unvaccinated 40- to 65-year-olds, according to data released Friday by the California Department of Public Health. Almost all were caused by the H1N1 swine flu virus.
Of the season's total deaths in people under age 65, 14 were in Santa Clara County; five, Alameda County; five, Contra Costa County; four in San Mateo County and one in Santa Cruz County.
But there are promising signs -- based on data from outpatient clinics, hospitals and viral testing labs -- that the worst of California's flu season is over.
"Most of the indicators are down from a peak that occurred three weeks ago," said Dr. James P. Watt, chief of the Communicable Disease Control division. "We don't know where we're going from here, but it is reassuring that the trend is downward.
"Flu is notoriously unpredictable. It is not uncommon to have things pick up again in the middle of the season," he warned. One of flu virus tested was found to be resistant to the antiviral drug Oseltamivir, a potentially worrisome sign.
In addition to the flu update, the public health department also reported Friday that whooping cough had killed a Riverside County infant, the first confirmed death from the disease since 2010.
Preliminary data shows that 3,272 pertussis cases were reported in California last year, more than double the number in 2012. Pertussis is cyclical with peaks in incidence every three to five years. California experienced a pertussis epidemic in 2010 when more than 9,100 cases, including 10 deaths were reported.
Vaccination works against both flu and pertussis. Infants pertussis vaccinations typically start at two months of age, but adequate protection doesn't occur until about six months of age. Contact Lisa M. Krieger at 650-492-4098.

Application launcher and much more.
Quicksilver is a unified, extensible interface for working with applications, contacts, music, and other data.
Anyone using a computer (and the Macintosh is no exception) spends a lot of time locating files and applications, and then carrying out actions on those items. The Finder is a reasonably good tool for getting a visual overview of the contents of your disk, but it isn't ideal for quickly locating and manipulating files, especially if you have a deep and complicated folder structure, or if you prefer keyboard navigation to using the mouse.
Quicksilver allows you to find what you need quickly and easily, while keeping your hands on the keyboard. For example, if you want to launch an application hidden in the depths of your file system, simply activate Quicksilver with a keystroke, type a few letters of the application's name, then hit Return or Enter to launch it. When you don't need Quicksilver, it keeps out of your way, preserving precious screen real estate, and yet you can summon it instantly with a key stroke - just like Mercury the winged messenger. Actually, Roman mythological texts are remarkably silent on whether Mercury could be summoned with a key stroke, but it would have been great if he could. Quicksilver will certainly make you feel as if you have god-like powers.

I have finally given up quicksilver and bought a license for Launchbar. I got tired of having to force quit quicksilver every single day due to the dreaded 'addresssBook database ... home directory unavailable ' bug. The forums have been down for months so I wonder what the future holds.
Amazing!! I don't know I went with out it. Essential to everyone the work on a mac regularly - it does everything you need it to do. From changing tracks with a press of a key (or two) to open quick (with another press of a key) the random app that you need but doesn't need to be on the dock.
I am crippled on a Mac without Quicksilver. This is an ESSENTIAL interface tool that has increased my productivity significantly!
I have passed over this app in recommendations multiple times not really seeing the value until I wanted a open an application I don't have in my doc with my trackpad. I had to open my apps folder, navigate to another folder, scroll down and double click on this application just to open it
With quicksilver I hit "ctrl+space" type the first three words and hit enter, boom.
A necessity for anyone wanting to take advantage of speed and effiency
Someone once asked me what Quicksilver was. I started by saying, "It's like Spotlight, because it indexes all your applications and files." They responded with, why not just use Spotlight? I had to think for a minute, before I lamely responed, "It's scriptable and you can add often-used apple scripts to the list and it will display album artwork from iTunes, and send a email or IM to a contact or you can..." I had to stop, because it was then that I realized, not everyone wants to take the time to get to know Quicksilver. And that's fine, Spotlight works very well for most people.
But if you want to take command of your computer with a swift and natural keystroke, then take a look at Quicksilver. I still get questions when people hit Apple+Space expecting to open Spotlight (I remapped the keys for it to be Option+Space), but for me, Quicksilver is definitely the way to go.
This is an absolutely ESSENTIAL program. Once you use it, you'll never want to go back to PCs, JUST because they don't have Quicksilver.
There's just no way to convey it's true awesomeness and usefulness. I use it EVERY day, more than ANY other program. It's saved me (guessing here) probably over 100 hours, just because it takes less than a second to launch the app I want.
WOW.....how did I survive without this?
The more I use it, the better it gets (and I only started yesterday :p)
It seems to remember what I use most too, and supply me with those options first.....brilliant.
Has allowed me to free up vital real estate on both my dock and in the menu bar (I no longer need iClip as this does the same thing). Has also given me the ability to rate my iTunes tracks back....etc etc....bleedin' 'eck, the possibilities are endless :)
OK, I didn't 'know' the version with the old icons, but even so I think the previous menu bar icons did look better.....you can download them here:
and replace into your resources folder.
Having said that, I'm getting so used to it I'm seeing what it's like if it appears to be invisible (no doc icon and no menu bar icon - which you can access via the cog in the shelf anyway)....i Hate clutter and this frees up even more real estate.
......i could go on and on.....
Things like this make me feel smug that I don't use windoze :D
Love it, love it, love it. Makes my life so much easier.
I installed the latest version (Ã51) and have to say that for me QS is finally coming of age. I was a long-time Butler user but lately have been exclusively using QS, mainly because I find it is faster on my old 800MHz G4 machine. There are still a few stability quirks but nothing that puts me off anymore. I look forward to this just getting better and better but would also recommend Butler to anyone - it is worth trying them both to see which best suits your needs.
Beta 50 is now out and fixes, among other things, the indispensible del.icio.us plug-in.

LOS ANGELES -- California has more Hispanics than any other state, by far, but you'd have to look elsewhere for those being talked about as ascending stars on the national political stage.
Florida has U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, a Cuban-American once considered a possible running mate to Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and who later introduced Romney at the GOP National Convention. Texas is sending its first Hispanic to the U.S. Senate, Ted Cruz, the son of a Cuban immigrant.
Nevada and New Mexico are led by Hispanic governors: Brian Sandoval and Susana Martinez. Spanish-speaking George P. Bush, the grandson of one former president and nephew of another whose mother is from Mexico, is considering a run for office, possibly Texas land commissioner. Texas is also home to the Mexican-American Castro twins: Julian, the San Antonio mayor who delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention, and Joaquin, who is headed to Congress.
More than 1,300 Hispanics hold elected office in California. Nine Hispanics were elected to Congress this year from the state, and four of the last seven Assembly speakers are Hispanics.
So, in a state once considered a launching pad for presidents, where is California's Latino Kennedy or Reagan? Or, even, the next Romualdo Pacheco? (Pacheco was the only Latino to serve as governor of the state, in 1875.)
To Arturo Vargas, executive director of the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, the absence of a homegrown Latino leader mentioned alongside Rubio and the Castro brothers is not coincidental. Despite the state's reputation for diversity, California has elected only a single Hispanic to statewide office in the modern era -- a lieutenant governor, Cruz Bustamante. A second Hispanic also held that office during Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's tenure -- Abel Maldonado, although he was appointed.
"That is the one threshold Latinos in California have yet to surpass," Vargas said.
California's 14 million Hispanics are poised to become the largest ethnic or racial group in the state, surpassing whites, and there are plenty of powerful Hispanic officeholders, including Rep. Xavier Becerra of Los Angeles, chairman to the House Democratic Caucus, and Assembly Speaker John Perez, another Southern Californian.
The trajectory of California's multihued electorate suggests it will be a matter of time before more Hispanics reach the state's loftiest offices . According to the Field Poll, the number of registered voters in the state increased by 3.5 million between 1994 and 2012; Latinos and Asians accounted for 90 percent of the jump.
Despite those numbers, the two state politicians most frequently mentioned as rising political stars in California are not Hispanic: Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom is white, and Attorney General Kamala Harris is the daughter of a black father from Jamaica and a mother from India.

Watonwan County Soil and Water Conservation District is offering an attractive financial alternative to planting corn and soybeans along lakes, streams and ditches. Landowners now have the option to enroll this land into the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) Reserve Riparian Buffer Easement Program.
The goal of the program is to establish permanent vegetative buffers on land adjacent to surface waters (riparian land). Buffers trap sediment and immobilize nutrients and pesticides in field runoff, and provide important wildlife cover. This new initiative, administered by the Minnesota Board of Water & Soil Resources (BWSR), is targeting existing Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts, or land that is eligible for CRP enrollment.
Approximately 823,000 acres of CRP contracts will expire in Minnesota over the next 5 years and many of these acres would qualify for the buffer program.
The RIM Reserve Riparian Buffer Easement Program will pay landowners in Watonwan County an average of $5,400 per acre to enroll eligible cropland and CRP. Some non-cropland can be enrolled but it must be less than 50 percent of the easement area. Non-cropland is compensated at half the cropland payment rate.
Eligible landowners must have owned the property for one year prior to the application. Buffer widths must be a minimum of 50 feet and can be expanded to 200 feet in designated waterfowl nesting areas and up to 350 feet in floodplains. CRP contract holders will continue to receive CRP payments until their contract expires, at which time the land would roll into the permanent RIM easement.
Both water quality and wildlife habitat enjoy benefits of riparian easements. Water quality is protected as buffers filter snowmelt and rainfall runoff, reducing soil erosion. Additionally, native vegetation captures sediment, nutrients and pesticide residue, reducing nitrogen and phosphorus loading.
Wildlife species require food, water, and cover. Well managed riparian buffers generally support larger populations of wildlife because the buffer provides many habitat requirements.
Interested landowners should contact the Watonwan SWCD at (507) 375-3104 and speak with Jack or Aaron.

The wait was worth it for Palo Alto's Davante Adams, whose NFL future involves catching passes from Aaron Rodgers.
Taken by the Green Bay Packers with the 53rd overall pick in the second round of the NFL Draft on Friday, the Fresno State wide receiver called the news "awesome."
"I can't wait," Adams said by phone from his family's home. "He's the best quarterback in the NFL. I've watched him for a long time. Now I get to play with him. It's pretty crazy ... a dream come true."
Rodgers, the one-time Cal star, was also a happy man.
"Love it," Rodgers tweeted after the selection.
Adams, 21, said he's never been anywhere as cold as Green Bay. But he isn't worried about it.
"I'm totally good with it," he said. "For what I'm doing, it definitely outweighs everything else."
The 6-foot-1, 212-pound Adams figured he had a 50-50 chance of being taken in Thursday's first round. But he had to be patient before hearing his name announced.
Five wide receivers were taken in the first round, and USC's Marqise Lee, Vanderbilt's Jordan Matthews and Colorado's Paul Richardson went ahead of him Friday. A record 12 wideouts were taken in the first two rounds.
A graduate of Palo Alto High, Adams led the NCAA in pass receptions as a redshirt sophomore in 2013, grabbing 131 passes for 1,718 yards and 24 touchdowns. In two seasons, he caught 233 passes for 3,030 yards and a Mountain West Conference career-record 38 TDs.
Adams caught at least one touchdown pass in 22 of 26 games he played for the Bulldogs.

After a citizen questioned Eagle Police about why a violent robbery incident that allegedly occurred two weeks earlier was not under investigation, officers contacted the reported victim to learn the facts.
The victim admitted to the officer that he was assaulted and robbed, but that he decided not to report the incident at the time. The officer noted the man "appeared to clearly be the victim of an assault due to some old blackening around his eyes."
The man told the officer he suffered a broken nose as well as being knocked unconscious during the Nov. 9 attack. He said he was carrying laundry through a parking area of an Eagle apartment complex, listening to music with headphones on, when a man approached him and hit him in the nose. When the victim regained consciousness he noted that his check card and apartment keys were missing. He went home and canceled the card and contacted the complex maintenance man to change out his locks.
The man said he was embarrassed about the situation and that was why he decided not to report it to police until the third party became involved.
An Eagle man contacted police last week to report he was the victim of a phone scam.
The man said he received a phone call saying he was pre-approved for a $1,500 loan provided he came up with a $150 down payment. As directed, he purchased a "green dot money card" for the amount and submitted the PIN number to his phone contact. After he supplied the information, a second caller contacted him to say the loan could not be approved because he had an outstanding debt with an affiliated company. He was told he needed to pay $500 on that loan.
The man purchased two additional cash cards in the amounts of $200 and $300 and provided the PIN numbers to the second caller.
Shortly after this action, the man discovered the operation was a scam. He contacted the cash card company, who directed him to file a police report.
Eagle Police contacted the various phone numbers the man used during the transaction. One number connected directly to a voice mail and one was a fax number. A third number connected with a company identified as "Infinity Debt Solutions." The officer confronted the employee who answered about the case and demanded to speak to a manager. The employee placed the officer on hold and did not return to the line.
The officer traced the various phone numbers to a Manhattan, N.Y. area code and reported the incident to the Federal Trade Commission.
An Eagle Police officer patrolling around town shortly after midnight recently witnessed a car turn left onto Capitol Street and then right onto Grand Avenue without signaling either turn.
Then, as the officer watched, the vehicle turned southbound on Church Street from the Eby Creek Road roundabout, coming to a complete stop in the middle of the street.
After waiting approximately 30 seconds, the officer initiated a traffic stop and approached the vehicle, asking the female driver if she was all right. The woman replied she had stopped her car because she was trying to make a phone call. The officer noted she had blood shot watery eyes and there was a strong smell of alcohol coming from the vehicle. She said she was attempting to drive to a relative's house in Eagle-Vail.
When the officer asked for her license, registration and proof of insurance, the woman said she did not have any of those items but she eventually produced a work identification card. When asked if she had consumed any alcohol, she replied she had two shots about five hours previously.
The woman refused the officer's request to perform roadside maneuvers but indicated she would be willing to take a blood test. A second officer arrived on the scene and drove her car to a safe location for the night.
While en route to the hospital, the woman inquired about what led the officer to initiate the traffic stop. The officer said the main reason was she had stopped her vehicle in the middle of the road. The woman reportedly replied, "Sorry about that, I was trying to send a text."
After they arrived at the hospital for the blood test, the officer informed the woman she would be charged with DUI and offered her a ride to her brother's home in Eagle-Vail. The report noted she was apologetic, cooperative and polite throughout the incident.

The race for two positions on the Camdenton school board is on. A final flurry of filings gives voters a choice of five candidates to fill two positions on the board in April.
The Camdenton school board is considered to be one of the most important upcoming elections. The district recently lost one of it top administrators and has been at the center of discussions.

Current board president Nancy Masterson and Jim Besancenez re-filed to run in December along with Darin Keim.
School board members are elected at-large with the candidates receiving the highest number of votes district-wide winning the seats.
A final list of all filings will run in the Thursday Lake Sun print edition. On Wednesday, check out LakeNewsOnline.com for the latest in filing news.

Re: "Can't afford 4 more years, by Dorthe McNaul, letters, Nov. 1
Obama did not apply for college aid as a foreign student. That was an April Fools joke. Why would he do that after graduating from a U.S. high school?
Not sure why Obama should disclose his medical records, educational records or travel records. To appease the conspiracy theorists I suppose. And the rumor that they were sealed by the court (whatever that means) is not true.
Obama didn't go on an "apology tour" or an "insult our friends tour." This was a weak attempt by Romney of discrediting Obama. Personally, I like Obama's approach to relations with other countries. U.S. doesn't need to be and can't afford to be the world's bully.
Obama has treated the military with the utmost respect.
Obama didn't cut the credit rating, he inherited all the issues which caused the credit rating cut. What he did do is prevent a total collapse of the US's credit rating.
Obama used the term "shovel ready" once. The fact is it takes lots of planning to get a project to "shovel ready" and he admitted that later. He didn't spend a trillion dollars on projects that never happened as some have insinuated, they just weren't shovel ready from the beginning.
Arizona deserved the lawsuit after their total disregard of federal law and the rights of citizens.
Obama had every right to suggest the Chrysler CEO should resign. They needed a wake up call. Oh, and it worked.
The Obama's don't pay their dog trainer $102,000 per year with taxpayer money. The dog trainer earns $102,000 per year, from all of his clients. And the Obama's paid for it out of their own pocket. There is also buzz about the Obama's flying their dog in its own plane for their Maine vacation. Also false. The Obama's and staff took two planes because they were landing at a small airport. The dog went with the staff, it didn't have its own plane.
First lady doesn't have 22 "personal assistants." She has a staff that do a lot of good work on some very important causes. Mrs. Bush had 18.
Obama repeated a portion of the Quoran and said the call to prayer was one of the most beautiful sounds on earth. So what, and if you haven't heard it how do you know? He's actually paying respect to a huge and peaceful portion of the world's population. He's also said that he would not hesitate to use force against anyone who threatens the US. I think that's the right approach. And all this rhetoric about him being a Muslim. Please stop this nonsense. Go to FactCheck.org and read all the sections on this topic. It includes long lists of out of context and edited quotes alongside the original quotes. There is a ton of material here, all debunking this ridiculous theory.
Unfortunately, a very scary form of right wing rhetoric has effectively gotten into people heads. This includes the bashing of a what the right-wing labels "the liberal media" who they "don't believe." Objectivity, the new right wing bias. Don't hear what you like, call it biased. The falsehood's win!

Why J.J. Abrams Gives 'Star Wars: Episode VII' A New Hope
Let's dispense with the important information directly, since establishing geek credibility is extremely important when discussing anything having remotely to do with "Star Wars": I still have all of my toys, including my Landspeeder, which is currently perched on my bookshelf next to a copy of "The Rhetoric of Fiction", and my full-sized Boba Fett doll which, as I'm sure you'll all recall, had an eye you could stare through, as well as a very soft cape. On a rather frigid night recently, I almost ordered a sleeping bag that is shaped like a Tauntaun, but was ultimately dissuaded from doing so when I grew concerned that I would sleep in it to the exclusion of my own bed, which is where my wife sleeps, too. I think Greedo deserved to die. I think among the most beautiful things I've seen in my life is Princess Leia in that gold bikini number. I have a better relationship with Lando Calrissian than with my father. I have seen the first three films approximately 500 times each. I have seen the second three films more times than I'm comfortable admitting, even though I dislike them thoroughly. And when Disneyland recently opened their new "Star Wars" ride…well…I was planning on going to the park that day, anyway. Really.
So, basically, I am your average 42 year old male constantly grasping for the dying shreds of his childhood.
With that established, I view the news that J.J. Abrams will be helming the Disney-revival of the "Star Wars" franchise with both joy and fear. Last night, Disney officially announced that Abrams (co-creator of "Lost," and the director of the rebooted "Star Trek" movies) will direct "Star Wars: Episode VII," the first of a new series of films in the relaunched movie franchise (Michael Arndt will write the screenplay).
The truth of the matter is that no one ever slept out in front of their local movie theater waiting for the release of the latest "Star Wars" film because they couldn't wait to hear George Lucas' dialogue or to witness his deft direction – in both arenas, Lucas always had a clunky hand, which wasn't important to me when I was a kid, but which the latter three films highlighted in often cringe-inducing fashion (three words: Jar Jar Binks). The longer Lucas stayed in the universe he created, the less emotionally sophisticated his movies became, to the point that they began to feel like little more than infomercials for the video games and cartoons that came next, both of which contained complexity and depth far beyond the embarrassment of Anakin Skywalker's wailing cries.
Abrams proved with his reboot of "Star Trek" that there was a place for complex drama amidst the CGI, that the fantastical world of space is still just a place, and in that place are humans (or humanoid like creatures, anyway)with problems that can't be solved with just a laser. If anything else, "Star Wars" has always been about people fighting against oppression of one kind or another, and what's more complex than that? I don't suspect Abrams is going to go against everything else he's ever done and move "Star Wars" into overtly dark terrain (unless he's been hiding a Christopher Nolan-like desire to make every toy I've ever owned into a mess of psycho-sexual pain and suffering), but I do have a slight fear of the winking earnestness of "Super 8," though that may be more about Steven Spielberg than Abrams himself. Nevertheless, the "Star Wars" franchise has always been a little goofy, which lines up well with Abrams ability to find rakish humor in the midst of otherwise otherworldly events – he did this exceptionally on "Lost" but it's one of many things missing from his latest show, the Abercrombie & Fitch-in-dystopia "Revolution" – and I can only hope that Abrams, unlike Lucas, creates characters more for their ability to enhance a scene dramatically than to fill the coffers of Hasbro.
"Star Wars" is nearly a public trust at this point; it belongs more to the people than it does to any director or screenwriter and in that way the film Abrams makes will be in the same unenviable position Lucas' final three films found themselves: compared not to the original movies, but to our romantic memory of sitting in the dark and seeing the words "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…" for the first time, the rousing score, the lumbering hull of a spaceship, the feeling that you were seeing something that you'd never seen before. Replicating that sense of astonishment is impossible, of course, so hopefully Abrams will just make a damn good movie. One thing I know for certain: I'll be there.
Tod Goldberg is the author of a number of books including "Living Dead Girl."

Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman...The circus comes to town.
A few facts remain constant in the Trayvon Martin case. Martin is dead. Zimmerman, the shooter, might as well be. The vast expanse that divides working class whites and urban blacks has never been more apparent. The longer this case drags on, and there seems to be no end in sight, the better chance it ends ala Rodney King L.A. riot style. Despite the hand wringing, media stoked outrage, and calls for justice, this case ends badly, justice has fled the scene. The media and assorted shit heels like slick Al Sharpton and various celebutards like Spike Lee and Ray Lewis,( seriously, Ray Lewis?) are all piling on the Trayvon Martin bandwagon. Before you get me twisted, this isn't an indictment against Martin or support for Zimmerman. The facts are trickling out, conflicting accounts from eye/ear witnesses. Zimmerman was out to kill a black kid vs. a black kid was out to whoop a white dude. Passions are running high, regardless of where you fall in the court of public opinion and perception. As for me, I'm not sure what happened, only a few really know and at least one of them is dead.
Now Martins parents are headed to Washington to meet with the congressional black caucus. When is the last time the congressional black caucus met a pair of black parents who lost their child at the hands of another black male? I mean it's the leading cause of death of young black guys.
Martins mother filed for trademarks on the "I am Trayvon" slogan.
Spike Lee tweeted Zimmermans address.
The New Black Panther Party has issued a wanted poster and 10k bounty for Zimmerman.
Somewhere in the heat of all the frustration and media stoked rage, the President weighed in. He informed us if he had a son he would look like Trayvon. He passed on the opportunity to call for cooler heads, or to denounce the hype and hyperbole of race baiters like King Louie Farrakhan who tweeted a not so veiled threat about retribution and some good old fashioned eye for an eye payback.
So the Trayvon Martin case has fewer similarities with Emmit Till or James Byrd Jr, and is becoming more and more about cashing in and pandering for votes.
There was a big vigil on the Plaza last night, one of many throughout the country. The Mayor was there. I couldn't help but wonder what many surely must be thinking but dare not utter, "Why all the outrage and emotion over a single killing, when there are so many here at home?" If you are looking for something to be outraged over, and not for nothing that's exactly what is motivating a good share of these protests, then how about a little outrage over the baby who was recently shot, his mother and another person killed. Or how about the kids who sat in the back seat of the car as their parents were gunned down in the front seat, in broad daylight? The local media gave scant coverage to these recent KC atrocities. Meanwhile, the national media, Congressional black caucus leader and detector of Satan sandwiches Emmanuel Cleaver, and all of the other assorted politicians, activists and shit heels of every stripe, have pretty much remained mute and absent.
The answer is easy. People only care when it can benefit them or their cause. Once that train starts rolling it doesn't stop until it arrives at Sanctimonious Bullshit Central. There also weren't any mass national vigils for the 70 something Asian man killed by black youth during a game of knockout king in St. Louis, or any number of cold blooded crimes, at any time of day or night, all over the country.
They say Trayvon Martin has become a symbol. If by symbol they mean, the racist killing of a black kid by a semi white guy, they are wrong. If by symbol they mean, a glaring display of Media, political, and mass public hypocrisy, then bingo, hit that nail on the head. When you latch on to a single, rare, isolated incident, while ignoring the mass extermination of a particular racial/age group, you are as full of shit as a Christmas goose, and as counterfeit as the ring masters of what has become a circus. Justice, like Elvis, has left the building, whatever the outcome in this case, justice won't play a role in it. So for those demanding an arrest or payback, absent all of the facts, stop calling for justice. Justice isn't what you want, you want blood, you want to affix blame, you want to assuage your white guilt or black anger. If you wanted justice, you would let it run it's course, not rush to it. So give it a name, payback, blood, eye for an eye, just don't confuse it with actual justice. That train left the station before the facts had a chance, and it ain't coming back.

Riddle me this Mark-what would happen to me if I were to put a public bounty out on the new black panthers?ReplyDelete
Do you think there would be an arrest warrant issued for me, and in how many languages would I be called a racist?

DEar MM: Right on the money, MM!! Since it is obvious that all of the people "dumping fuel on the fire" know perfectly well that they could cause a terrible outbreak of racial violence, the question arises: Are they doing it as a sick power trip, or are they being paid to do it by the various political groups in the US whose agenda would be served by a repeat of the race riots in April 1968 after Dr. King's assassination? Terrible charge to make--but the truth must be faced--a lot of people are trying to cause a national outbreak of racial violence. Take care--keep telling it like it is. Sincerely, Ernest EvansReplyDelete
- Ernest EvansTuesday, March 27, 2012
Dear MM: PS: One additional thought. In the spring of 2008 Rev. Sharpton did everything he could to incite a race riot in NYC over the Sean Bell case. Now he is doing everything he can to incite a national series of race riots over the Trayvon Martin case. Sharpton knows that race riots would destroy the Obama Administration--the election of Barack Obama nearly put him out of his "racism business", his re-election would probably totally put him out to pasture. Sincerely, Ernest EvansReplyDelete
Good points Doc.ReplyDelete
I agree with everything you said, and said very well. One thing bothers me about this case though and that is the apparent fact that the police didn't contact the parents for 3 days after this kid was killed. They had his name at the time they found his body. I just read the police report. There is no excuse for that.ReplyDelete
Very well said. Bravo.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousThursday, March 29, 2012
Brilliant. You put into words exactly what I have been thinking about this whole fiasco. To coin your favorite phrase, "this country is as fucked up as a soup sandwich."ReplyDelete
For once, you're mistaken.ReplyDelete
It isn't that this is about people trying to "cash in" on a death. It isn't no one cares about the other people shot and killed.
It's that one young man is dead and another person isn't even arrested, in spite of what seems like overpowering evidence.
Not even arrested.
He should be arrested, charged and ALL the facts brought out in a court of law. All of them. Then, with the judge and jury there, let them decide guilt or innocence.
To date, society has decided Mr. Zimmerman is innocent. Lots of other people, looking in from the outside, see evidence that suggests--strongly--otherwise.
You are mistaken in this, too: some of us out here really do, in fact, simply want justice. I'm not assuming guilt yet.
But I'm sure as hell not assuming innocence.
- mark smithSaturday, March 31, 2012
The whole matter of justice hinges on presumption of innocence Mo.ReplyDelete
"But I'm sure as hell not assuming innocence."
What you want isnt justice if you expect an arrest absent of justifiable cause.
and there isnt a preponderance of evidence suggesting a crime occured. in fact, there are independent statements saying Trayvon followed Zimmerman and jumped on him. You cant go out and arrest someone just because people think it should be so.
Dead on again Mark.ReplyDelete
- ERnest EvansSunday, April 01, 2012
To My Good Friend Mr. Kevins Evans (AKA "Mo Rage"): Yes, the case should be settled in the courts before judges and juries. And my assessment as to why there are a lot of people upset about Sharpton et al is that is precisely what they don't want. The slogan of "No Justice, No Peace" is the same slogan community leaders used in the Oakland subway shooting case--and when the courts did not give these leaders the result that they wanted they responded by sparking two separate incidents of race riots. This unsubtle attempt to use threats of race riots to get what they want is what is angering most Americans about Sharpton et al. George Zimmerman may well be guilty of every thing charged against him--but he deserves to be tried in court, not by 21st Century versions of the lynch mobs I heard about growing up in the South. When I worked as an undercover investigator for the ADL I met lots of white supremacists and hard-core racists--I assure you that they have the same mentality as Al Sharpton as far as being willing to use violence to get what they want--he is simply the reverse side of the coin. Take care!! Sincerely, Respectfully and In Christ, Ernest Evans (NO Relation, but I would be honored to be!!)ReplyDelete
To Dr. Evans, first--I don't think Al Sharpton has anything to do with this, period.ReplyDelete
To MM (Mark): George Zimmerman is, in fact, innocent, absolutely. At least he's innocent right now. But the fact is, again, a young man is dead and it's known Mr. Zimmerman killed him. There is easily enough evidence to show that he should be at least arrested and charged with manslaughter, as the police that night thought he should be. From the video from that same police office that arrested him, he wasn't bruised, cut or did he have a broken or bloody nose, as he claimed. There is clearly enough evidence to arrest him, charge him and prosecute the trial. Then, if a judge and jury in a court of law finds him innocent, great, fine, then we can live with that. But as it stands, a young man is dead and the shooter/killer isn't being arrested or charged with any crime.
And that's wrong. That is hugely wrong.
Why Zimmerman should be arrested, charged and tried, a short list:ReplyDelete
George Zimmerman needs to be arrested. He needs to be charged and he and this case need to go to court and be tried there, that's all there is to it. No assumption of guilt but definite need to prove innocence.
"...absent of justifiable cause..?"ReplyDelete
A young man is dead, the known shooter called him a "coon" moments before, when the police told him not to pursue the young man and there is no "justifiable cause"?
Seriously, there is.
- mark smithMonday, April 02, 2012
For every article you post there is another article or set of statements that contradicts it. And your last link is total bullshit. Blacks killing whites, usually during the commision of a crime is as common as a housefly. It just doesnt get the same attention or draw the same mass calls for justice. So spare me the what if Trayvon was white. We just had a white kid beat to death in the middle of a group of blacks in Westport. There were no crys of hate crimes. Just a dead kid who everyone implied had it coming for being drunk in Westport.
And, I just learned that Trayvon's parents were asked to ID his body 12 hrs after the death, not 3 days as Sharpton and the media said. Furthermore, ABC enhanced the video of Zimmerman and there are indeed gashes on his head.ReplyDelete
Point being: We cannot believe a damn thing we read or hear in the press anymore. Is he guilty of a crime? I don't know. Is he innocent? I don't know and neither does anyone else until he's tried in a court of law. But the press IS guilty of misleading us and so is Al Sharpton, et al. Worse, they WANT to stir up race riots.
- Ernest EvansWednesday, April 04, 2012
Dear I Travel for JOOLS: Yes, the a lot of people in the national political class, for reasons of their own, are trying to incite a national wave of race riots. That is the only conclusion one can come to after the story broke today of NBC News editing the transcript of Zimmerman's 911 call to make it look like he was a racist--a lot of people have been knowingly "dumping fuel on the fire" in the hope of inciting a race riots all over the nation. On a national scale it is what we witnessed in KCMO in the spring of 2008 when a lot of local politicos, for reasons of their own, tried to incite a race riot over the Sofia Salva tragedy. We are a nation of lions led by donkees. Take care. Sincerely and Respectfully, Ernest EvansReplyDelete
I say again, Al Sharpton is irrelevant in this.ReplyDelete
And JOOLS, that's just the point--you nor anyone knows if he's innocent or guilty of manslaughter but the young man is still dead. Zimmerman needs to be arrested and then he needs to be charged, go to court and have that innocence or guilt shown and proven in a court of law, away from the press who are just human and fallible and out for coverage, not "truth."
He needs to be arrested, charged and tried, period. That's all.
I can't imagine anyone being able to argue that he shouldn't be arrested, charged and tried, either.
- Ernest EvansWednesday, April 04, 2012
Dear Mr. Kevin: Thanks for your posting!! Actually, from what I know of the case, I fully agree that Zimmerman needs to be arrested and charged. My point is that that is a decision to be made by the judicial process--not by 21st century lynch mobs marching in the street chanting "no justice, no peace" (ie, if you thought LA in 1992 was bad you ain't seen nothing yet); not by people like Nancy Grace; not by op-ed writers, etc. Yes, they are fully entitled, as all of us Americans are, to have opinions on this case--where the line has been crossed in a most dangerous way is the unsutble treats of violence by a lot of people if the case is not resolved in a way that they like--which is exactly what happened in Oakland in 2010 where they had several days of riots in response to the outcome of the subway shooting case. We are a nation of laws--criminal cases are decided in courts before judges and juries--not in the streets, the media and the Internet. Personally, I think O J Simpson is guilty--but he was acquited in a court of law and I would be just as opposed to threatening him with lynch mob justice as I am opposed to doing that to George Zimmerman. Take care--keep doing the great job you are doing on your blog!! Sincerely, Respectfully and In Christ, Ernest Evans (NO relation, but I would be honored if I were!!)ReplyDelete
I feel you I kind of feel the same way I'm from Baltimore and people get killed everyday! I hope the true justice finds the Treyvon Zimmerman case but like you said people rolling their feelings and hurt into this and it's clouding some peoples perspective.ReplyDelete
Last summer we had two you white girls hit and ran over by some tourists driving a towncar.The car was later pulled over and release with a damage vehicle sitation. Then later asked to come in at their convience for questioning! Never heard anything else about this case! Where was Ray Lewis Then?

5. Business idea! =)
I've never seen a cybercafe with programming tools or rates low enough for people to consider programming or studying in them. I've never seen a cybercafe that had little programming contests--perhaps with prizes?--or computer tips and trivia.
I've never seen a cybercafe that made it easy for students to work on group projects by letting them use whiteboards, scratch paper, pencils, Post-It notes (sold at the store) in a semi-private room.
I've never seen a cybercafe that helped you focus on your work instead of your movie download or your chat. I've never seen a cybercafe explicitly devoted to studying, with help just a call or hand-raise away.
I've never seen a cybercafe that allowed parents to establish accounts or lines of credit for their children so that they could be assured that money was spent on computer access instead of games.
I've never seen a cybercafe that made it easy to conduct small seminars by having some kind of projector, even an OHP--although of course a digital projector would be much cooler. (This is pushing it, but only just.)
Maybe I just haven't looked hard enough, or maybe there's a business opportunity here somewhere. I want to make it easy for people to study even if they're only renting bedspace somewhere. I want to make it easy for people to find other people to study with, to form study groups, to ask questions if they need help.
This idea lends itself to franchising, too. Computer geeks who would like an excuse to work on personal projects while making some money can take care of a lab. Internet all day. An excuse to keep computing books around. The occasional question, sure, but after you set it up it's pretty much self-running.
Hmm. Far future. I hope someone beats me to the punch, because it looks like something that might be good for students.
