Four years ago, Anna Frebel, a young astronomer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, found an ancient star in a neighboring galaxy whose chemical composition proved nearly identical to some unusual stars on the outskirts of our own galaxy, which are older than the Milky Way itself.
It was a striking discovery, suggesting that the relatively young Milky Way is growing by conquest – "cannibalizing" nearby older dwarf galaxies. And it underscored the importance of a new way of learning how the universe evolved from the Big Bang to the modern cosmos.
Traditionally, astronomers study the early universe by looking back in time – peering deeper and deeper into space for vestiges of light from billions of years ago. But in the last decade, Frebel and others have used powerful telescopes and high-resolution spectroscopes to study the chemical composition of very old stars closer to home, in the Milky Way's halo, producing a wealth of information about the creation of elements and the formation of the first stars and galaxies.
These astronomers are like Egyptologists combing the desert for relics of bygone civilizations, and call themselves stellar archaeologists. Their work relies on the fact that the rare, primordial stars they are looking for have very few atoms heavier than hydrogen and helium, the gases from which they came together. By contrast, our sun and other relatively young stars are rich in other elements, which astronomers collectively refer to as metals.
Astronomers believe that some of the old stars formed from the chemically enriched dust left over from the explosive deaths of the very first generation of stars. And their atmospheres contain important information about their forebears, like DNA passed from parent to offspring.
The hunt for these scarce antiquities goes back to the early 1950s, when scientists recognized that not all stars have the same metal-rich chemical composition as the sun.
"At the time, they didn't know what to do with the metal-poor stars," Frebel, 33, said. But astronomers have since established what she called "a framework for the chemical evolution of the universe."
The first stars were made up entirely of hydrogen, helium and negligible traces of lithium. With no heavy elements to cool the gas clouds, they grew massive, rapidly burned through their fuel and exploded in supernovas.
During various burning stages of those first stars' evolution, before and after they exploded, their intense heat fused the hydrogen and helium atoms into heavier elements – the first metals – which in turn enabled the formation of long-lived, low-mass stars.
Some of those early second- and third-generation stars eventually made their way to our corner of the universe, where they long remained unnoticed by astronomers among a sea of even younger stars. Most of the stars we see in the sky are relatively rich in metals like iron and are known as Population I stars because they were once thought to be the only type existing.
That changed in 1951, when the astronomers Joseph W. Chamberlain and Lawrence H. Aller found the first two Population II stars, with about one three-hundredth the amount of iron as our sun. Three decades later, in 1984, two astronomers at Mount Stromlo Observatory in Australia, John Norris and Mike Bessell, chanced upon a star with just one ten-thousandth the iron abundance of the sun.
Iron content closely corresponds to what astronomers call metallicity, which is expressed on a logarithmic scale: Minus 2.0 is one-hundredth the iron abundance of the sun, -3.0 is one-thousandth, and so on. The newly discovered star was -4.0.
It was a serendipitous find, according to Norris, who along with Bessell would become a Ph.D. adviser to Frebel.
In a paper in Nature, Frebel and a group of colleagues, including Stefan Keller of Australian National University, the lead author, described a star in the Milky Way constellation Hydrus with a metallicity of less than -7.1. The star, SMSS 0313-6708, is presumably very old, perhaps the oldest yet identified. The astronomers who found it estimate that it formed more than 13 billion years ago.
Astronomers, Frebel said, "are finding stars that are over 13 billion years old – what we think are plausible second-generation stars. So now we're trying to decipher their chemical composition in order to answer questions like: How massive were the first stars? How many were there? How and where were the elements produced? How did they explode? And how did the first low-mass stars form?"

Black Experience
Small business seminar gives owners tools needed for success
| 2/29/2012, 12:02 p.m.
Miami Times partners with Regions Bank with entrepreneurs in mind
According to the Small Business Administration (SBA), over 50 percent of small businesses fail in the first five years often because they are unaware of the many pitfalls facing fledgling companies. In order to help develop a more knowledgable community of successful entrepreneurs,
The Miami Times
recently partnered with Regions Bank and held a small business seminar at Florida Memorial University. One of the biggest mistakes that beginning entrepreneurs make is using the barrier of finance as a way to deter them from pursuing a business idea, said George Ray, III, 29, an entrepreneur himself and manager of the Small Business Education Program (SBEP) at Miami Dade College. Ray was one of the workshop presenters at the seminar. The purpose of a business plan is to refine your idea into an actual plan that will attract investors. If you have a good idea people will invest if your idea makes sense. Dont let money be your barrier. Ray and other presenters also spoke about the role and lifestyle of entrepreneurs, gave information on how to incorporate businesses and discussed vital tax law information. Bertha Woods, who has been in the network marketing business since 1993, said the speakers really sparked her interest to further develop herself into a businesswoman. One of the things that stood out to me in [Rays] speech was planning, Woods said. Staying organized is one of the problems that I ran into as an entrepreneur.Now I am thinking about attending some courses that teach business information on how to plan. This seminar was very educational and very entertaining I am looking forward to attending more seminars like this one in the future. Yvette Costoso, who has been in business off and on since 1989, said she leaned a few golden rules on how to increase her chances of success. Staying focused, staying on task and having enough capital can be some of the toughest parts about being a businesswoman, said Costoso, who has businesses in the multi-level marketing and non-profit sector. When I first went into business I did not have a business plan, but after hearing the presentation I will be consulting someone today about developing a business plan for myself. It is very important because it will help me to be able to have something to reflect back on when I am stumbling.

I usually love the supporting men roles. And, I seldom root for the main men leads in dramas. I am not a hardcore critique, once it touched my heart, it made me laugh, cry, smile, angered, and made me realize something, I count it as a good drama.

I predict a very hard to score fight, with half the rounds being neck and neck.
Yeah, eventually age catches up to everyone. This isn't a 39 year old Marquez going against a 33 year old Pac. This is a 48 year old Hopkins against a prime, still hungry 31 year old just coming off a bad fight, which will make him feel he has to redeem himself. Not the best time for BHop in my opinion.
I have a feeling he will lose this one and it might be the first clear loss in some time. It will be a year since his last fight, and it's
to keep going at the elite level forever. Impossible. Ageing is the one certainty in life.
I've said that in the past though. If Hopkins comes in looking still ok, then he will beat Cloud. As long as he doesn't take any right hands early on before warming up, he should figure him out quick enough.

Titus Thotawatta- The Viceroy of Sinhala Cinema
Titus is a greatest cinematic giant produced by the mother Sri Lanka. The vacuum left behind by his sadden demise is irreplaceable. The entire nation owes a debt of gratitude to this remarkable veteran artist who sacrificed his lifetime in building the unshakable image around the globe.
Titus is a rare artist who had enjoyed with full of talent. He involved all aspects of film industry and also in television field of Sri Lanka. He was an all rounder in artistic world. He played in inestimatable role in film industry as an editor, sound engineer, director, producers, lab activities, art direction and even acting. In addition to the film industry he involved in television as producer, director, producing motion picture dubbing etc. The most accept factor is that he was the best editor ever produced in Sri Lanka.
Titus born on 17th April in 1929 in busiest urban area in Colombo in five member family. His father was a businessman. His ordinal name is Thotawattege Manual Titus de Silva . He studied in Annada College and later he entered Colombo Technical College for drawing arts and other artistic work.
In early 1950's he joined Government film Unit as an amateur or apprentice and later became permanent employee. In the Government Film Unit he learned and gain experience in all techniques of making films but his main field was editing films. All the films made in Government Film Units were documentary film. He edited the documentary films such as Conquest in the Dry Zone and Be safe or Be sorry which were directed by Lester James Periis.
Lester James Peris , the father of Sinahala Cinema joined Government Film Unit in early 50's and Ville Balke later became one of the best cameramen also worked in Government Film Unit ( GFU) during same period. Lester, Villy and Tuits became close friends and three of them were in talent in the field. This friendship made historical revolution film industry of Sri Lanka. In 1955, these three leading characters left the Government Film Unit and started to create their own film. It was the film Rekawa , which turned to Sihnala cinema turning to real ceylonization of our film industry. He is the first Sri Lankan Editor who challenged the editors of South Indians and editor of first colour film. .
Titus is the best editor ever created in Sri Lanka. Most well recognized films nationally and internationally shined with his editing. After Rekawa , he edited Sandesya , which also film directed by Lester and photography was from Villie. After that nearly 25 films were edited him and few films among them were Parasathumal, Ran Muth Duwa, Sarawita, Punchi Baba, Gatawarayo, Devarayo, Hantane Kathawa. In addition he edited short films and few documentary films. The International award winning Minisa Saha Kaputa was one the short films that he was involved with editing.
Titus directed nearly 6 feature films. Most of the films became box office films. His stories based on the true and natural stories which show real pictures of the society. The characters of the films are true characters people meet day to day.
His first film Chandia shows the real informal urban segment. Haralakshe Mankollaya and Maruwasamagawase are the true stories of Sri Lanka; He took those stories close to the reality. His films Sagarika and Suihasuna were not hit films but try to emphasize the new trend. His Hanaday film made a revolution in Sinhala cinema boosting to make Children Film. The other special experiment he did was make three short stories called Thewatah (three stories or three faces) , experimenting the feature films. Three stories of the film based on stories different to each other, the three short films in Thewatah feature film were Picturer Pissa, Gilihunu Mal and AhalaPahal. Gilihunu Mal short film was highly apprecialed by the professionals and General Public and won OCIC Award as best short film. However these three films considered as short stories.
Even through the songs of his film Puran Appu a story based on a national hero recorded was not able to complete it. He supported to comply few films with were failed complete showing decency to the other in the industry.
Unprecedented changes emerged into effect in the social life of Sri Lanka in 1979 with the fantastic introduction of the Television, a sophisticated invention of the new world. The tendency to produce programs for influence of the people was realized as a national need with the arrival of the new television screen, a spectacle invaded into our living rooms. In 1982 this artist Titus joined Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation with the main objective of improving the production of television programs of high value at a premium. Ran Kahawanu and award winning Kumaraya and Hansaya (Prince and Swan) added with documentary films are a few examples of his ingenious resources. The remarkable contribution made by him with dubbing and subtitles to films is a semblance of revolutionized expertise of upsurge on television programs.
He also produced number of documentaries such as serious of programme on economic subjects Ganu Denu (nearly 50 episodes) proving that he has abilities to touch other subjects too.
His attempt of innovative creations has inspired the new generation to showcase their skills in partaking on various programs. As a matter of fact both young and old recall the inexplicable memories of his great works like Malgudi Dawasa, Athuru Mithuru, Rasara, Ahala Pahala, Robin Hood Oshin and Ha Ha Hari Hawa episodes in mint condition. His effort to influence children in particular is bearing fruit through thick and thin. The characters in the likes of Pandithuma, Bagalawathi Teacher and Dr Honda Hitha are closely attached to the day to day social life of the environment.
He behooves public tribute as the only Sri Lankan artist who earned irrefutable reputation with high priority to making Children films like Handaya the well known children film that revolutionized the industry. The theme of the film Handaya was to focus the genuine mindset of the children. In recognition of his distinctive skills he was presented with the prestigious global award for the best film at the International Children and Youth Film Festival in Italy in addition to many other national accolades won by him. Adorable creation of new characters in television dramas produced by him still shines at the finger tips of the children. He became a knight in shining armor on inventiveness of cartoon characters for the influence of children and translated his remarkable know how into reality on dubbing television movies, a masterly performance of artistry.Dr Honda Hitah, Pissu Pusa are few examples.
His masterly contribution to the film industry made in editing, script writing and direction was assiduously rewarded with prestigious Sarasaviya, OCIC, and Bunka awards by unreserved recognition of the local and international cinema as a tribute in appreciation of his stellar performance. Only he who can see the invisible can do the impossible. The greatest Grand Pix Award was presented to him at the International Film Festival for Children and Youth – Giffoni Valle Piana Italy for his children film Handaya. Indisputably he was honored with high esteemed accolades of Kalasuri Award in 1990, Sarasaviya Rana Thisara Award in 1995, Sumathipala Memorial Award in 1996, Swarnasinghe Award in 1997 and Bunka Award by the Japanese Government on account of his inestimable partnership to cinema industry.
Titus, enthused by his brilliancy of innate talents in a variety of artistic skills, extended an invaluable contribution to raise the cinema screen to the pinnacle of its glory. He excelled in Arts and Music with his innovative prowess under the leading musicians of virtuosity Ananda Samarakoon and Sunil Shantha during the time of his salad days. He practiced training in dancing under the famous traditional dancer Sesha Palihakkara. He became one of the great talented artists in drawings by practical training obtained at the Colombo Technical College.
The people of Sri Lanka have always valued his dedicated contribution to Sri Lankan cinema, Television and entire Fine Arts sector. Evidently this great artiste started from ordinary and elevated his efforts to extraordinary over all challenges in a bid to produce a local Sinhala movie. The image of Titus Thotawatta developed in the Sri Lankan cinema can never be replaced and will shine at the pinnacle of everlasting glory on the cinematic screen in Sri Lanka.

February 2016
Carmody Groarke has won an RIBA Competition to build a new luxury hotel suite on Burgh Island, a 26-acre tidal island off the coast of South Devon. The accommodation will form part of a new offer for the Burgh Island Hotel, an iconic 1930s Grade 2 Listed hotel. The new hotel suite will offer guests an exclusive retreat set within the dramatic landscape of the existing hotel.
The design of the building takes its inspiration from the 'natural history' of the unique land formation, responding to the sculptural forms of the soft mud-stone cliffs and composing a series of interconnected rooms to form an inhabited bridge, nestling on two sides of the cliff faces, which frame views of the dramatic sea and landscape.

I have a feeling this is something simple that I'm over looking, but I can't get WordPress to "see" the custom page template I created. If I understand the process correctly I just need to add the following to the top of the template file (customTemplate.php for example):
Template Name: customTemplate
Once that's done I should be able to select the custom template when I create a new page. Problem is that my template has that code in it but no option to select it when I create the page I want to apply it to. I'm using WP 3.04... am I missing a step somewhere? I used the same technique on a previous theme under an earlier version of WP and didn't have any problems.

News 12 This Morning/Wednesday May 7, 2014
RICHMOND CO., Ga. (WRDW)--Alfonzo Williams, Schools Safety Chief for the Richmond County School system, says he's been preparing his team for worst case scenarios for months.
"We were criticized for doing lockdown drills earlier this year because we were doing them unannounced," he explained.
But because of those drills, he says they were ready as deputies searched for a suspect on the loose after shots were fired at Paine College, a campus just a few miles from several other schools.
"We immediately placed all of our area schools in the vicinity of Paine on a soft lockdown," said Williams.
During a soft lockdown, class time stays normal, but the school locks all but one entrance and students and teachers lock their doors too.
"And we brought in extra security from some of our other areas of the county," Williams went on to say.
He says shortly after hearing about the shooting at Paine College, they were able to round up about 15 school security officers across all of schools located near the Paine campus.
Now the sheriff's office wants to know whether the shooting involves more students or even more schools.
"It's our understanding that maybe the sheriff's office is unclear about whether there are any other persons involved and as the investigation unfolds we just need to make our students, staff and faculty aware," said Williams.
So nearby schools will stay on heightened alert, which means during the day, students and staff are to stay in the classroom and extra school security stays in place.
Students will still arrive and leave school at the same times.

Blue Jays spring training
A look at the Toronto Blue Jays as they prepare for the 2013 baseball season.
rge: I can understand people disliking either of these candidates more than the other but I don't understand how either of them can get even a forty percent favorable rating. A few years ago politicians and voters from both parties were moderate and could reach a compromise on most issues. Republicans did seem to favor the wealthy over workers more so than the Democrats and had a tendency to vote for corporation's interests. But neither party seemed inclined to outsource jobs for cheap foreign labor until Nixon "normalized" relations with "Red China" and corporations began building plants overseas. Reagan cut taxes for the wealthy and went crazy with an arms buildup, tripled the national debt, and passed the blame for the tax increase he made necessary on to George H W Bush. Then, when Bill Clinton got elected and passed NAFTA, politicians from both parties began taking more bribes than ever before and sent millions more manufacturing jobs overseas. The Clinton's enriched themselves and brought political corruption to a whole new level. It has gotten so bad that a guy like Trump, who does most of his business overseas and hires foreign workers for cheap labor, can present himself as a populist and win the Republican nomination. Bernie Sanders, if a little too progressive, at least was honest and supported the working class. He was the candidate who was needed to keep the middle class from disappearing. He would have taxed the wealthy (not the working class) who are the only ones who can afford a tax increase. But we are now stuck with a choice between Clinton and Trump and both of them stink. Both Clinton and Trump will tell any lie necessary to win the election but neither will keep their campaign promises.When has either of them ever failed to enrich themselves at the expense of working people? They have a forty percent favorable rating, are you kidding me? At most, only the wealthiest 10% of voters should support either of these crooks.

Justin Bieber just can't help himself. The young pop star, in a breathtaking act of self-ownage, has already littered his Instagram account with videos of himself playing basketball in ways that range from the embarrassing to the downright fraudulent. And yet, here is, playing himself once again:

Perhaps I am just too green at this. It has been over 10 years since I've done any coding and this WP thing has me so frustrated. I just want to change the header image in TwentyEleven and customize the menu. This seems like it should be simple to do, no?
I tried uploading the new header image, it is the right size but it just doesn't show up. In fact, none of the images show up when I go to the media section. It says the names but no images. If I look in Chrome it has the broken image symbol but in Firefox there is just nothing.

After washing your hands, vaccination is probably the simplest and best medical advance in human history. But in spite of overwhelming evidence of its efficacy at preventing death and disease, irrational fearmongering is persuading people to skip shots for themselves and their children, and we're now paying the price.In the U.S., 2014 was the worst year for measles in more than a decade, due to an outbreak in an Ohio Amish community spread by a missionary returning from overseas. And 2015 … [Read more...]

Rosetta's Comet Rendezvous
The last few weeks have offered atheists and progressives ample reason to feel discouraged. Down on Earth, anti-rational fundamentalism runs riot, and angry, reactionary conservatism seems stronger than ever. But in spite of all this, in spite of the many obstacles that encircle us and limit us, humanity is accomplishing great things among the stars.The latest of our successful cosmic explorers is the Rosetta spacecraft, a mission of the European Space Agency. Launched in 2004 (!), Rosetta … [Read more...]
Prayer Can't Fight Ebola
The worst-ever outbreak of Ebola virus is still raging in West Africa. There are over 1,500 confirmed deaths so far - including, heartbreakingly, doctors and nurses treating other sufferers - though the real number is probably much higher, since widespread fear and mistrust means that many of the sick never come forward.The epidemic has also been helped along by traditional herbalists who claim they can treat Ebola, but only end up spreading the virus. Some people don't even believe it … [Read more...]
Repost: The Age of Wonder
[Author's Note: I'm reposting some old favorites while I'm away on vacation this week. This post was originally from November 2008.]If you search the internet, it's not hard to find New Agers and others who think that the dawning of the age of reason was a mistake. They envision a more "holistic" approach, one that properly pays heed to the mystery and complexity of existence, and castigate science for being cold, unfeeling, heartless in its probing, reductionist scrutiny of the natural … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 13
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 13, "Unafraid of the Dark"For their final episode, the authors of a show usually focus on their core message, on the one element that lies at the heart of what they want to say. The new Cosmos is no exception, and for the series finale, what they chose to emphasize was intellectual humility: the fact of our fallibility and the immensity of how much we still don't know. In the vastness of the cosmos, there are many wonders yet to be revealed; but it's only … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 12
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 12, "The World Set Free"For its penultimate episode, Cosmos returns to the subject of climate science, a familiar variation on a sermon it's already preached more than once. I have some mixed feelings about this. With the series pressing against time constraints, I worry about the lost opportunities that inevitably result from retreading the same ground, when that time could have been devoted to the scientific advances that have come about since the … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 11
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 11, "The Immortals"As the new Cosmos approaches its final episode, it's about time that the series started looking back on the ground it's covered and drawing some larger lessons. This episode accomplished that, and while it treads into more speculative territory than earlier outings, I think that's appropriate.But first, there was a scene about someone I'd never heard of: Enheduanna, a Sumerian high priestess who holds the honor of being the most … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 10
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 10, "The Electric Boy"Up till now, Cosmos has used historical sequences as an adjunct to the science, just as a way of giving credit to the men and women who brought us the discoveries we now take for granted. But this time, the writers made the interesting and daring choice to make the entire episode a historical story told through animation. This forecloses the possibility of the firework visuals that have been Cosmos' stock in trade, and I think it's … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 1
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 1, "Standing Up In the Milky Way"When I first heard that Carl Sagan's Cosmos was being rebooted, I was thrilled. As much as I loved the original, even the best science series inevitably becomes dated sooner rather than later, as our knowledge advances. And this was a great opportunity to see how modern special effects, which are light-years ahead of where they were in the original, could be used for scientific storytelling. But when I heard the new series … [Read more...]
TV Review: Cosmos, Episode 9
Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Episode 9, "The Lost Worlds of Planet Earth"At the beginning of its run, Cosmos tended to alternate excellent episodes with mediocre ones, which made me wonder if that would be the pattern for the whole series. But I'm happy to say that the show has hit its stride: the last three episodes, including this one, have been outstanding, and in my opinion this was the best of the three.We started out back on the Cosmic Calendar, this time in mid-December, the … [Read more...]

MBCO/OEI a Partnership
Who We Are
OEI, Oller Engineering, Inc., was formed in 1989 in Lubbock, Texas by Rich Oller to serve the municipal clients in west Texas and the Panhandle; cities, counties and townships from small to large communities. OEI's professional services include the full gamut from infrastructure development and water systems improvements to engineering design for roadways and highways, and environmental services including Phase I EA's to remediation of Brownfield sites.
While the Texas and engineering communities already know and respect OEI's reputation, it is the years of hands-on experience that Rich Oller brings as an operator in water and wastewater treatment plants; an advantage that few, if any, other engineering firms can offer. Not only does he understand the operations of these facilities, he can design them for the utmost operational efficiency. OEI brings that old-fashioned "boots on the ground" approach to solve the problem and stays beyond to assure the systems work as designed.
OEI serves as a mentor to MBCO Engineering, a woman-owned civil engineering firm in Houston. "We are more than mentors, we are partners with this young firm. We will teach by example and promise to focus on what is really important to the people we work for—to create reasonable solutions and meet their needs first."
Our first client started with a handshake and we begin every job the same way. Our word is our bond and our success is based on providing the best quality at a fair price. At OEI we are committed to providing high-quality services – infusing excellence in everything we do. We make sure we understand your needs and deliver the right service from the beginning.
Our approach is "boots on the ground". We lead by example and provide support in getting the project. We start with your idea, analyze it, improve it, and implement it with minimal risk, if any. We operate with total transparency. We do the right thing, the first time, every time.

Our Proof
Third Coast is a private light oils and blending company that is acquiring wastewater effluent for use in their production process. This reuse water will replace the potable supply they are currently using. A new 12-inch HDPE line will be laid from an existing wastewater treatment plant along street right-of-ways to the plant site. OEI is preparing the route study, pipeline design, permitting requirements and designing the pumping station and storage tanks for receiving the effluent from the City of Pearland
The City of Post has approximately 3500 residents and is located approximately 45 miles southeast of Lubbock and situated off of the caprock that creates the high mesa of the South Plains. Post originally harvested their drinking water from flowing springs and wells located around the exposed escarpment. Over the years alternative sources were used until the effects of the drought hit the Panhandle in 2007. The City was now on severe water rationing and a solution was critical.
An alternative plan was developed; a pipeline from Slaton, 27 miles from Post and between Post and Lubbock traversing a 300 foot drop in elevation and laid through caprock escarpment depth of 26- to 28-feet deep. Working with the city of Post, OEI negotiated the terms of the water purchase along with providing the design of a 14-inch gravity pipeline connecting the two cities. Today the City of Post has an alternate water supply, two geographically different supply pipelines and more than adequate water for sustainability and growth.
A complete replacement of an existing ground storage tank, and booster pumps were necessary to provide the extra push to deliver water south of the City and provide operating pressure within the distribution system. Storage was increased from 500,000 gallons to 2 million gallons, completely replacing all of the booster pumps and building and automated the entire control system to function based on demands placed on the distribution system. New metering of the incoming water was installed to track actual usage since the City was limited by contract on the daily amount used from the City of Houston. Today the system works exactly as planned and provides the required pressures with substantial storage during water outage or interrupted supply events beyond the control of the City.
The original design completed in 1950, the old Imhoff tank with stabilization ponds and sludge drying beds no longer served the needs of the City. The City of Hereford has grown substantially over the years and is a major cattle feeding hub in the Panhandle. Its close proximity to Amarillo and Canyon, Texas makes it a natural location for agriculturally based enterprises. We worked with the City and designed a new treatment plant that provided for reuse of the effluent as irrigation water on agricultural land and a new lift station that would meet TCEQ regulations and provide for the residents of Herford.

Love, Nina: Despatches from Family Life by Nina Stibbe
Nannies see a lot. They penetrate the heart of different family lives: glamorous or baffling, enviable or dysfunctional. In public, though, Nanny's is an unheard voice, so there is piquancy in Nina Stibbe's collection of 1980s letters to her sister in Leicester: bulletins from a fashionable London crescent. Twenty years old, without A levels, childcare qualifications or any idea how to cook a chicken, she went to work for the literary editor Mary-Kay Wilmers. The quirky selling point of the book is that Wilmers's literary friends (Alan Bennett, Jonathan Miller,

After months of work, and a million dollars in costs, the brand new concrete on 26 Road is already seeing plenty of cracks and bumps.
Now, It may be back to square one for the city to fix it.
The great news for Bookcliff Gardens came last April, the dilapidated road in front of their business was bring redone.
Grand Junction announcing they were going to repave the roads surrounding the popular nursery.
Of course, co–owner Dan Lomlo did have one concern, the amount time it was going to take to get it done, 8 months.
"People want to avoid construction whenever they can," he says, "With our main throughfare shut down, it does affect our business."
When the project finished in October, Bookcliff Gardens noticed the road was already starting to crack and crumble.
City engineer Trent Prall says working a good portion of a year on a stretch of road inly to have to tear it up again is not what he wanted to hear.
First priority is figuring out what went wrong, "We're working with the contractor to see what those problems are," he says.
There is some good news, however, the million dollar paving project is guaranteed and under warranty.
While that's great news for taxpayers, it's concern for the people at Bookcliff Gardens, "We're hoping they don't shut down the road for repairs,"says Komlo, who also tells 11 News the city has been great in paving the road during the garden's off-season.

Froch unified his IBF title with Mikkel Kessler's WBA strap in a successful revenge mission on May 25 and has been linked with a potential bout down the line with unbeaten George Groves, who decisioned DeGale two years ago.
Groves-DeGale, which like Froch-Kessler II took place at the O2 Arena in London, was the last big British bout at 168lb but as much as 'Chunky' would love revenge over the 'Saint', he has more interest in catching the eye of 'The Cobra'.
"George Groves isn't on my radar at the moment, but Carl Froch definitely is," said DeGale.
"I can't see that fight happening and not on my part, on (Groves') part. I can't see him wanting to fight me again, but Carl Froch (I would), 100 per cent.
"Carl's a good fighter, a very good fighter, but my style is all wrong for him.
"Look at the fighters that have given him trouble, Ward, Dirrell, (Jermain) Taylor, move, speed, and I think I'll be all wrong for him.
"I'm here if Froch wants the fight. If the boxing fans want the fight, I'm here. I would have it next week, but I'm not too sure what he wants to do.
"I've heard he said if he fought me, he would destroy my career. I think it's the other way around. If I fought him and beat him, how could he lose to me?"
Next up for DeGale is Croatia's Stepjan Bozic at Bluewater's GLOW venue on Saturday in the latest defence of his WBC Silver title.
"He's from Croatia, he's got a good record," said DeGale of his opponent.
"He's not a top 10 fighter in the world, but he's a good decent solid fighter.
"He's boxed for a world title and in fact he boxed Carl Froch as an amateur and beat him in the Europeans. He beat him, so he must be decent.
"He's mixed in good company, so I'm expecting a solid test, but I'm looking to go in there, put a good performance on and showing the people what I'm about."

Share some of the items you've crafted!
Friday Photos!!!! (Jan 4)
I am really not very crafty at all!
I did however, make DD's Halloween costume this year. She wanted to be Strawberry Shortcake and I hated the cheap costumes in stores. So I made her the tutu, I hand embroidered the strawberry on the tshirt, and made her headband. Thankfully I could buy the tights separately!
Other than that I don't do much crafting. I did sew myself an apron a few years ago, but I don't own a sewing machine so it's not something I do regularly.
My oldest dd and I made these. There are 4 (for each of my girls), but I couldn't locate one of them...
Sandra: love her costume! My DD has just become interested in Strawberry Shortcake and I hate it so much! lol So I haven't bought any movies and tell her they are just at Grandmas (haha).
Laurie: adorable! I'd love to try a doll/stuffed animal but haven't found the ambition to attempt that one yet.
I try my best to be crafty, but I'm not. I can sew a bit so I've made the kids a few blankets...
DS blanket front & back (DD has one too but too lazy to go pull out for pic):
DD's bedspread for her toddler bed:
And I also made DS's pirate crib bumpers and wall decals (using my Cricut) which was the biggest project I've done...here's a pic of his room (the crib bedding is hard to see though..it has a skull, pirate ship, hook, ship wheel, nautical star, and an anchor on it - though he's removed about half of those by now):
Sandra, for not being crafty, that looks pretty good to me!!
Ashley, I wish I could do bedding... maybe someday. I love quilts!
Okay, I'm going to be a photo hog. My FAVORITE project I've ever done was a mural I painted in the girl's room back when we were in MI. I was so sad when I had to paint over it when we sold the house...
That is so cute Laurie! I'm not much of an artist. I did paint these pics for my DDs wall because I needed something that matched but didn't want to she'll out the $ for cute pictures so a few art supplies later (no making fun...she thinks they're awesome haha!)
They are awesome pics!! I'm NOT a freehand artist at all. I can only "arrange" well. I had an overhead projector and individual fish and landscaping pieces that I used when I did the underwater mural.
I love all these posts! What a great group of creative women! I seriously do to much crafting...so I'm going to have to figure out what to post...lol. This might take a while.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE these pics!! I try to be crafty...pinterest helps alot lol I made these burp clothes from scratch! The embroidery is machine embroidery cause I am not crafty enough to do by hand (Sandra, that costume turned out so cute!). But I do design the applique's myself for the machine! So it is fun to do that too!
..hopefully these pics arn't too big..
*ETA- Okay, I think I figured it out...
Ok, Jessica! I LOVE the applique work! Does your machine do it all for you or do you do it by hand?
"Heatherbella" wrote:
Ok, Jessica! I LOVE the applique work! Does your machine do it all for you or do you do it by hand?
Yes! I know, I know, it's cheating. But I did design and digitize the designs myself lol
No, I love it! I want a machine that does that. SOB!
This is a sample of the blankets i crochet
This is the blanket WE made El for Christmas
These are the glasses I made for our wedding. This is a sample of the mobiles i make
I make a ton of these in different patterns
I also am learning to knit and cross stitch also making a recipe book. I do have a lamanator and make file folders for tots to learn matching and numbers and such. anything i see i try, i love crafts a ton.
It is addicting! I walk around the house looking for blank things I can experiment on lol
And WOW!! We have so many crafty women on this board! I love seeing everyone's handywork!
Ok, here are a few I can find easily.
This was a birthday gift for one of K's friends last year:
This is the freecycle doll stroller I pimped last year for DD's Christmas gift last year:
Here is a crayon/colouring book caddy I made DD in the summer for our road trip:
Kitty hat I made DD. Hard to see the ears but it's SO CUTE!
This is my most recent creation. I bought a Pottery Barn Kids Double/Queen sized duvet cover used (in great shape) and made DD a toddler sized duvet cover with matching toddler pillow case. The picture doesn't really do it justice...but it's pink with white flowers on one side and stripes (like the pillow) on the other side:
Ok, I will stop now...I could go on all day!
"desertdaisy" wrote:
Ooooh! Heather, I LOVE the coloring book/crayon caddy. Do you have a pattern that you wouldn't mind sharing?
The art bag was based on this tutorial here:
From An Igloo: Art Bag Tutorial
2 things I don't like about mine...so maybe you can learn from my mess up:
1) When you put wee markers in the slots they are tight and it pulls the fabric. The front looks all bunchy and stupid. Perhaps making there be more room in the pockets would help? Not sure. That just might make them fall out easier.
2) I used a hair elastic for the loop to keep it closed. It's a really big elastic and not flexible enough. It looks stupid when it's closed as it doesn't bend right.
I craft furniture. This was our kids Christmas present. We made it all ourselves. It's what hubby and I do together.
under Tori's side. I built the doll house for Christmas last year.
And Lucas:
we built the Lego box too. It's an ikea knock off. We bought ikea buckets but felt the actual box at ikea was junk so we built our own. He wants to paint it Lego yellow.
WOAH! Nice beds! I LOVE IT!
Wow! Everyone's crafts look amazing! I'm not crafty at all so I have nothing to contribute to this thread. But I love seeing what everyone else has done!

Amazing! Those beds are so cute!
Marsha: love your scrapbook pages/card. I have a Cricut but not the patience for scrapbooking.
Heather: I have a doll stroller with a horrible cover on it, never even thought of making a new one. Yours looks great! Did you find a pattern or just take the original off and copy it?
