We have, to this point, put several different 9/11 shows on the "Must Watch" list. They tend to have been new programs looking back at the events of that day and the aftermath. This one though is slightly different. Today, VH1 is reairing the entirety of the six hour concert that was held to benefit the victims and heroes of that day. Ed Burns is hosting this new look at the concert and if you choose to sit down and watch the experience will, undoubtedly, be an emotional one. VH1 is airing the concert commercial free.

Will the Real Fracking Science Please Stand Up!
Michael Lynch, US News & World Report
To continue the discussion on risk in the petroleum industry, the rather heated debate over the safety of hydraulic fracturing of shale has seen moratoriums imposed, regulations proposed, and regulators imposed on. Fears that the mix of chemicals used have contaminated ground water and that natural gas (methane) has leaked into families' and communities' water

My husband and I, along with my 2 daughters, their spouses and children, (ages 8 mos., 2, 4 and 5 yrs.) spent 5 wonderful nights at the Elliot Rose Guest House in early June 2013. It was amazing! We rented the entire house and were completely wowed upon arrival and inspection. My daughters were thrilled to have the sound machines in each bedroom (for the youngsters it was a godsend), and Diana & Paul had set up the crib and toddler air mattress for our youngest grandchildren, complete with a soft animal in bed to greet the 2 yr. old. What nice touches! Everything about the house was just so nice - it was clean, spacious, lots of amenities, well equipped/stocked bathrooms, and both kitchens were neat and also well equipped. There were freshly pressed pillow cases, and lush towels and bathrobes. The decor was also very tastefully done and not crowded with chotzkies like some B&Bs can be. The backyard was also delightful, a great place to gather with other family members staying in the area and for the youngsters to catch fireflies. Great old tree, swing, deck with table and chairs. Very nice. And last but not least - the breakfasts were scrumptious! Those scones are to die for! (I want that recipe.) - They kept our coffee cups full and had juices, scones, fruits, egg dishes, cereals, milk, - all different items on different days - something for everyone. We just couldn't have been happier with our stay. Great hosts and a great house. We will definitely be staying again and cannot recommend it more highly. Thanks Diana & Paul for a wonderful home away from home. Peggy Mohr Christiansen, Fernandina Beach, FL

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the guesthouse in April 2013. We felt right at home, and we had a wonderful time. Thanks, Diana and Paul!!

I have stayed at the ERGH on two separate occasions; a two night stay in November of 2012 and a three night stay in March of 2013. The rooms are inviting and clean making it easy to relax and unwind at the end of the day. However, the best part of the ERGH is at the beginning of each day - breakfast! Diana really goes above and beyond making delicious scones and egg dishes. Fresh fruit, yogurt, hot coffee, and an array of juices are also always on hand. If you'd like to see something special added to your breakfast menu all you have to do is ask - Diana and Paul put their guests' comfort at the top of their list of priorities. I would not hesitate to recommend the ERGH to anyone traveling to, or through, the Defiance area.

We stayed here in mid-February for a weekend. From the hospitality to the breakfast to the room, everything was all we could ask for. If we are ever in need of lodging in northwest Ohio again, we will definitely stay here again.

Diana and Paul are delightful hosts, they feel like family! Their b & b is exactly what I have needed for a long time when visiting relatives in my hometown. It outweighs the stay at a hotel by its hospitality and feeling like home, and not to mention the value! It is by far the cheapest yet best place to stay in Defiance. I would recommend a stay at the Elliot Rose Guesthouse to any of my friends or family. The details are all caringly thought out and perfectly executed. If something were to have gone wrong during our stay, I have no doubt Diana and Paul would have come to our rescue! A wonderful place for out of town visitors, and a place even a local could love for a get away weekend:) Laura and Ken A.

My husband & I stayed 9 nights and it truly felt like home-away-from-home without cooking, cleaning, etc.! We had full access to the guesthouse which made it very nice for us, since we were away from home for awhile . The house is beautiful, comfortable and meets all of your needs and exceeds your expectations. Diana & Paul are the perfect hostess & host! The breakfasts are great and the homemade scones are out of this world! Staying at the Elliot Rose Guesthouse beats staying in a hotel. We always stay at B&Bs and we rate this one as one of our BEST. My husband and I bonded with the Diana & Paul and made new friends.

Simply Perfect Scones
I nostri ospiti sono unanimi: questi scones sono favolosi! Servito a destra caldo dal forno, sono semplicemente deliziosi. Sono ancora meglio, ci viene detto, il giorno dopo, quando i sapori naturali degli ingredienti hanno avuto la possibilità di fondersi. Ad ogni modo, siamo sicuri che troverete che questi sono come nessun altro focaccine che hai assaggiato. La texture è friabile e leggera, ma ricca - a causa della farina sano al 100% di grano pasta, burro reale e yogurt naturale che compongono la pasta. Ogni partita è una sensazione di sapore, con combinazioni di frutta secca e noci, come ad esempio: albicocca-Orange-Pecan, Cranberry-Orange-noce, melograno-Plum-Orange, Kiwi-ANANAS-Lime-Cocco, e Cherry-Chocolate Chip- Pecan. Usiamo solo i migliori ingredienti: uova migliori del Eggland, reale scorza di agrumi, noci tritate a mano. Cannella, noce moscata, chiodi di garofano e zenzero sono utilizzati liberamente in varie combinazioni per evidenziare il gusto e l'aroma. Fatto a mano, scintillante di demerara zucchero rabbocco, croccante sui bordi e offerta nel mezzo .... può non solo loro gusto già?

Where's my bailout? How to break chains of negative equity
Misgovernance has left one in 10 of this country's citizens trapped in their homes. Marc Coleman says it's time to free the innocent
Published 15/11/2009 | 05:00
THE next time you're walking down any footpath in Ireland with more than 10 people walking along it, I'd like you to conduct this simple exercise; visualise one of the people you see walking towards you with Guantanamo Bay-style orange jump suits, with hands, feet and neck chained together. That is roughly the share of people in this country suffering from negative equity at the moment. Actually, for those it affects, the financial coercion of negative equity has the same effect as chains -- the head hung low, feet shuffling forward in despair and that facial expression of permanent defeat.
And yet they are guiltless, more than guiltless. They are victims, made vulnerable only by their belief. Belief that their leaders were telling the truth when they warned them to buy properties in case prices rose further. Belief that the banks had their best interests at heart when they lent them many times their income. Belief that estate agents were telling the truth about the prices being bid.
They are victims of a vast network of misgovernance encompassing our land laws, our planning system, our spatial strategy, our system of financial regulation, and, yes, our banks. They are also victims of a State that plundered them for tax revenues. At its peak levels of 2006, the State took over €2bn off of these people in stamp duty. And it was those who bought their properties in 2006, the peak of the market, who are suffering the most. The policy-makers who are inflicting this misery on them have no reason to care. Most of them -- senior civil servants -- bought their houses in the 1980s or early 1990s, before stamp duty became an issue. Many of the ministers who support the retention of stamp duty also don't care. Why would they? In their constituencies, house prices are low enough for the tax not to be a problem.
Negative equity has a solution, and there are three parts to that solution, each strategically targeted at specific groups of home owners who are in negative equity for very different reasons.
The first group are those who bought their properties before the middle of this decade. All or most of their negative equity is caused by the most stupid and destructive tax known to man -- residential stamp duty. By increasing the price of houses but not the cost (the higher price would be offset for all but first-time buyers by not having to pay stamp duty), abolishing this tax would allow more houses to be bought and sold. Replace the component of house costs accounted for by stamp duty -- between 7 and 9 per cent -- with a step up in prices and those buyers would, at least, only have the deposit to fund. For most of those who bought their houses at or before 2004, negative equity would no longer be a bar to purchase.
Slowly at first, but with gathering momentum, the property market would see a return to the level of buying and selling prevailing in 2005. So, once the recession is over, would prices.
But this still leaves us with a huge problem of those who brought property since 2005. For these, we need fine-tuning instruments; too costly and dangerous to apply to all those in negative equity, but still critical to reach those parts of market that abolishing stamp duty cannot.
These instruments are united by one simple concept, a concept that justifies the creation of Nama. The idea is that while, normally, buyers are responsible for the prudence of their investment, this is only true if government is acting competently. While stamp duty is an act of macroeconomic incompetence (and its abolition is the cure for that), the further measures I propose are an undoing of an equal and opposite microeconomic form of incompetence.
First, the kind of madness that went on in Monaghan -- where a local authority gave planning permission for tens of thousands of houses -- is an example (in this instance, rescinded by the Minister for the Environment) of how many properties were created where there were no jobs to sustain the income of those buying them. We are not talking about ghost towns in the sense of areas where properties are empty (this case is addressed below). Rather, we are talking about situations where those in negative equity are now out of a job and in arrears on their mortgage as a result. Here, the first-time buyer scheme must be extended so that the Government and local authorities -- who were glad to indirectly rip these buyers off by charging stamp duty and levies on builders (the latter of which were passed on to buyers in the form of higher prices) -- must now face up to the consequences of what they did. They must introduce schemes whereby they help the mortgage-holder with repayments in return for part-ownership of the property. That part ownership must preclude any right to sell the property without the consent of the original owner.
Then come the basket cases of the residential property scene. In a minority of cases (though, sadly, still a significant number) banks, estate agents and local authorities created housings estates where a few buyers find themselves stuck in eerie New Orleans-style isolation. They have few neighbours and no shops or facilities. Here, it's a case of: "In space, no one can hear you scream."
As taxpayers, they financed a government which funded local authorities that failed to provide those facilities -- and gave planning permission for these real-estate Frankensteins. Here, the failure of policy is too blatant to deny or ignore. The consequences are too tragic to do nothing. Like the bankers whose loans are responsible for these ghost towns, the buyers must be included in Nama. After all, their taxes are paying for it.
Finally, unlike the measures above, extending the period over which mortgages can be taken out won't reduce the burden of negative equity on the housing market as such. But it will spread it out more equitably across generations.
In Japan, mortgages that are passed on to another generation are common. In Dublin, many of our grander buildings once had 99-year mortgages. Ours is the first generation in fiscal history to shoulder the burden of paying for our pension and our own homes through higher taxes and mortgage repayments. Today's thirtysomethings will pay for the mistakes of their parents' generation who steered our economy into crisis. As most property is inherited in some form or other, allowing coming generations to spread mortgage repayments over longer time periods would -- provided regulation of the mortgage market is strengthened-- give to those currently in negative equity a slice of what they have invested in for their children and grandchildren. It's an unusual idea, surely. But then we live in unusual, if not revolutionary, times.
Tomorrow at 10pm on Newstalk 106 to 108fm 'Coleman at Large' looks at negative equity and the emergence of Ireland's new poor.

Clinical characteristics of depression, age at illness onset, medical burden, disability, cognitive impairment, lack of social support, and poor living conditions may influence the course of depression. This study investigates the timetable of recovery and the role of the above factors in predicting recovery in elderly patients with major depression.
Recovery was studied in 63 elderly (age >63 years) and 23 younger patients with depression who were followed up for an average of 18.2 months (SD, 13.1 months) under naturalistic treatment conditions. Diagnosis was assigned according to Research Diagnostic Criteria after administration of the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia. The Longitudinal Follow-up Interval Examination was used to identify recovery.
The recovery rate of depressed elderly patients was similar to that of younger depressed patients. In the elderly patients, age, antidepressant treatment, age at onset, and chronicity of episode were significantly as sociated with time to recovery since entry. Among these parameters, late age at onset was the strongest predictor of slow recovery. In younger patients, long time to recovery was predicted by weak social support, younger age, cognitive impairment, and low intensity of antidepressant treatment. In the elderly, the intensity of antidepressant treatment began to decline within 16 weeks from entry and approximately 10 weeks prior to recovery.
These findings challenge the view that geriatric depression has a worse outcome than depression in younger adults. However, depressed patients with onset of first episode in late life may be at higher risk for chronicity. Antidepressant treatment prescribed by clinicians may decline prior to recovery despite evidence that high treatment intensity is effective in preventing relapse.

Hey, everyone! It's Tamara! I'm back to share another super cute Cricut project with you all! It's a bit later than we had planned because I ended up pretty sick for a few days and didn't get a chance to finish it until recently.
This one is super cute and very easy to do! I had a lot of fun creating this to share with you all. This would be a great gift for a friend, teacher, child, etc. (or to look cute on your desk!)
I created a cute lollipop bouquet!
Adorable, right?! I was inspired by my cute new 3 Birds On Parade cartridge to create an 'April showers' theme. For this project I used the super cute paper collection 'April Showers' by 3 Bugs in a Rug! (Found at Right at Home Scrapbooking, of course!) Such a cute collection of papers! I love the spring colors!
If you would like to make one here is what I did -
Cartridges Used -
Tags, bags, boxes and more
3 Birds On Parade
Simply Charmed
Accent Essentials
Create a Critter
With a Gypsy or in Design Studio weld two tags Sized at 3" each. You will want to weld them so the holes are at the ends for the lollipop stick and ribbon to go through.
Bucket - TBBandM - Cut it as large as it will go. I layed it out in my Gypsy and rotated it a bit to get it even larger!
Flowers - Accent Essentials - #24 @ 3", 2 1/4" and 1 3/4". #32 @ 3", 2" and 1 1/4". And #46 @ 2 3/4", and 3/4". Glue them all together and fold up the petals so they look 3D.
Cloud - Simply Charmed - 3 3/4"
Text - 3 Birds On Parade - 2"
Grass - Create a Critter - 2 1/4 (trim to fit on the box)
Sun - Simply Charmed - 2"
Bird - 3 Birds On Parade - 4 1/2
Once you cut your box you will want to hot glue in a piece of styrofoam to hold up the lollipops. The 'You're tweet' is attached to a piece of jewelry wire and then stuck into the styrofoam.
Use some coordinating ribbon to tie your flower lollipop covers closed. It would be really cute to write or stamp something on the inside flap. That's it! Then give it to someone special to enjoy!
I really hope you all have enjoyed this project and that it inspires you!

The Central Heights High School Class of 1963 has established a scholarship in honor of Delores S. Johnson, left, who retired after 54 years as an educator in the Wayne County Public Schools. With her is Mel Battle, Class of 1963 principal.
As a young girl Delores Simmons Johnson knew that she had a burning desire to attend college. But she knew as well that her resources were limited -- her main source of income came from picking cotton and working...

An observed regularity in the city- size distribution of some countries. In a rank-size hierarchy, the population of any given town will be inversely proportional to its rank in the hierarchy; that is, the nth-ranked city will be I/n the size of the largest city.
Primate city
A country' s leading city, disproportionately larger and functionally more complex than any other; a city dominating an urban hierarchy composed of a base of small towns and an absence of intermediate-sized cities.
Christaller's Central Place Theory
A theory that explains the distribution of services, based on the fact that settlements serve as centers of market areas for services; larger settlements are fewer and farther apart than smaller settlements and provide services for a larger number of people who are willing to travel farther
Central place
A market center for the exchange of services by people attracted from the surrounding area
Literally, "country behind," a term that applies to a surrounding area served by an urban center. That center is the focus of goods and services produced for its hinterland and is its dominant urban influence as well. In the case of a port city, the hinterland also includes the inland area whose trade flows through that port.
World cities
Dominant city in terms of its role in the global political economy. Not the world's biggest city in terms of population or industrial output, but rather centers of strategic control of the world economy.
Mega cities
A very large city characterized by both primacy and high centrality within its national economy.
Metropolitan statistical area
area that statistically is a city; in the united states the area has to have a population of 50,000 people or more
Term used to designate large coalescing supercities that are forming in diverse parts of the world
Functional zonation
The division of a city into different regions or zones (e.g. residential or industrial) for certain purposes or functions (e.g. housing or manufacturing).
Central business district (CBD)
The nucleus or "downtown" of a city, where retail stores, offices, and cultural activities are concentrated, mass transit systems converge, and land values and building densities are high.
A functionally specialized segment of a large urban complex located outside the boundaries of the central city; usually, a relatively homogeneous residential community, separately incorporated and administered.
Burgess's Concentric Zone Model
A model describing urban land uses as a series of circular belts or rings around a core central business district, each ring housing a distinct type of land use.
Peak land value intersection
The most accessible and costly parcel of land in the central business district and, therefore, in the entire urbanized area.

2003 was a bit of a quiet year for fans while Rupert was busy filming his part in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Yet that didn't stop him from going on the Newsround message boards at one point and chatting with fans...
28 February 2003:
"Rupert Grint hits our message boards," CBBC Newsround
Now filming has started on the Prisoner of Azkaban, Rupert Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, will be dead busy.
But that didn't stop him coming on our message boards for a chat on 21 February!
Rupert calls himself Permlessboy whenever he comes on the boards.
He chatted to loads of people, mostly, for some reason, about ham.
We haven't included all the messages. That's because many of them are just Rupert telling people who don't believe him he really is Rupert!
8 April 2003: "Chamber of Secrets" DVD Launch
"Rupert's Gossip from the Potter DVD Launch," CBBC Newsound
Rupert Grint couldn't be happier.
No, not because it's finally dawned on him that he's one of the Big Three actors in one of the most successful films of all time.
Or because he's got an army of girl fans following his every move.
But because, simply, he doesn't have to go to school.
Fair enough.
The Ron Weasley actor is back on the set of Harry Potter 3, where he belongs.
"I'm having so much fun," he told Newsround. "Filming is sooo much better than school, it's so good to get back to it.
May 2003: The first photo of the trio on set is published online!
July 2003: Newsweek Magazine publishes a first look at Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with behind-the-scenes photos and official stills.
21 October 2003: Rupert and his co-star, Emma Watson, donated one of their paintings to the charity Kith & Kids. The painting truly showed off Rupert's artistic skills - here's what he had to say about the drawing:
I'm currently filming in the HARRY POTTER Films and art is one of my many interests. My picture was inspired by my favourite style of art surrealism. I wanted to create an image that was different and unusual. Please note this picture can be viewed upside down also.
12 November 2003: The first trailer for Prisoner of Azkaban is released! Something wicked this way comes...
6 December 2003: Access Hollywood has one of the first telvised behind-the-scenes footage from Prisoner of Azkaban and Rupert talks about his deeper voice.
8 December 2003: It was starting to become quite clear that Rupert and his co-stars were in this for the long run... Sci Fi Wire announced that the trio were officially signed on for the fourth film!

Crazy to stupid! Why do we spend time and money trying to look poor and dirty? If this is fashionable today, then give me the good old days when neat and clean was preferred.

I have never understood why anyone would want to ruin a pair of jeans to get this foolish look. If I had anything that looked that worn and dirty I would throw it away or cut it up and use it as rags for cleaning. :(

How do you folks do it? How do you write blog after blog on the subject of videogames, and not only do that, but make it interesting time and again? I often go months without anything to write about, and when I finally succumb to the itch to write something up and post it, I invariably end up falling back on the one subject that I think I have anything even remotely interesting to say about; gamer culture. Beyond that, I am incapable of thinking of anything to write about. It's mind-numbing. I enjoy the hobby a great deal, but even with that appreciation, I can't think of a single thing to write about that hasn't already been covered extensively by people far more capable than I.
So how do you folks do it, anyway? How do you go about picking and choosing what to write about, and how do you so consistently avoid making it banal and uninteresting to read?
EDIT: Just to let everyone know, I'm not fishing for ways to increase my page views. I mean, if that was all I wanted, it would be a very easy thing for me to write up a controversial piece free of any real thoughtful insight and just toss it out there. I want to write things that people would want to read, if of course they just so happen by my blog sometime and turn a curious eye to it. I don't need popularity or attention, I just need to know that if and when someone reads my blog, they aren't left feeling like I wasted their time. So many of you folks seem to have that down to a science, and I'm just wondering how you guys make it seem so easy.

How Hard Can Hacking the Happiness Molecule Be?Lizzie Heiselt
The other day was a hard day. I didn't realize it until my husband asked innocently, routinely as we were putting the kids to bed if I had a good day. Before I had a chance to think about it, I answered with an emphatic, "No." The decisiveness of my response stunned me, and I had to go back and think about what had actually happened during the day that made it so "not good."
It was a cold day, one of the coldest of the year. I spent the morning distracting my younger two kids from the cheese sticks in the fridge and reading the same picture books over and over again. I spent hours trying to warm our apartment with baking projects, attempting to be useful and creative. It didn't work. By 11 a.m. I was feeling lonely, disconnected, and isolated. I needed to feel like I was part of a community and not merely the guardian of the family cheese supply.
But what could I have done to feel that sense of community? What can I do to foster it in the future? Paul J. Zak, author of The Moral Molecule and founding director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies and professor of economics, psychology and management at Claremont Graduate University, has some suggestions. He claims that we can "hack" our way into feeling more connected by releasing more oxytocin — the "happiness molecule" — into our bodies. All we need to do is act or be more empathetic.
He makes it sound fairly simple: giving hugs, making eye contact, telling people you love them. Those kinds of things bring people together, improve your relationships, and make you happier. He notes that feeling of being part of a community is a great way to extend your life and improve your health. He even goes so far as to prescribe a plan: "Give eight hugs a day, focus on how those around you feel, and yes, use the 'L' word when you can." ("L" meaning "Love," of course.)
Fairly simple, right? Or not. To be honest, I've considered trying to become one of those "hugging" people before. I thought it wouldn't be that hard just to reach my arms out so that someone could step into them. But it was hard, almost as hard as it was to look someone in the eye. As much as I wanted to connect with someone, looking them in the eye felt … too intimate. Much as I wanted to empathize with them, I wasn't sure I wanted them to be able to see all my insecurities — which were undoubtedly staring right back at them. In fact, I quickly reconsidered trying to become a hugger/soul-gazer and tried to regroup.
My next thought was that perhaps I was overreaching. Maybe I needed to start a little closer to home. I have no problem giving my 18-month-old daughter dozens of hugs and kisses a day. And my husband and I put forth a valiant effort at the prescribed 8. But my sons? I could do better there. Not only with hugs but with looking them in the eye, seeing how they are feeling, and then telling them what I see. Keeping that sense of community and connection at home is one of my most important goals in life, and it seems worth the effort to do it, even if it's hard. Over the past few days I've given it a go: putting my arm around them as we read together, giving them my full attention when I ask them how their day was. And though it doesn't feel completely natural (yet), I do feel like something is happening like I am really seeing them, in hi-def, which is something that has become too rare.
But beyond the walls of my home, there is certainly more I can do. Can I learn to tell my friends that I love them? And have it not be awkward and … too much? There are a select few whose eyes don't intimidate me, a few whose hugs feel natural and genuine. But I, personally, haven't been able to pull it off. Still I had to try something. I started small — and possibly cowardly — by pulling out my phone. I typed a text to a friend. I wrote that I loved her. Then I took a deep breath and hit "send." Immediately, before I even got a response, I felt warm and happy. It seemed like something I could maybe get used to. Maybe something that would even be worth the initial heart-pounding awkwardness to make it more natural and instinctive. And then, of course, I got her response. She seemed happy, too. Note to self: be less afraid to love on my friends.
Finally, I had to find out if it's possible to develop the empathetic, look-into-your-soul, give-you-a-hug kind of attitude with people I meet on the street. I'm not at all sure to go that far, but I feel like I took a big step recently. My younger two kids and I were standing on a street corner in the freezing cold, waiting for the light to turn so we could cross. I briefly made eye contact with the man standing next to me and smiled. He pulled his scarf down away from his mouth and smiled back.
"You have far to go?" I asked through my partially frozen lips.
"Yes, but I'm catching the B44 just over there. You?"
"Not too far. Just a few blocks. We're on our way to a friend's house."
The light changed, and we walked on in the same direction at different paces. It wasn't much, but it was a connection, a brief gathering of a community, an opportunity to feel for each other. And, as far as I'm concerned, it was enough. I felt happier — and warmer — as we trudged through the piles of snow. That day felt like it was going to be much better than the one before.

Labour's Balls Denies That He Pressured Barclays on Libor
U.K. opposition Labour Party Treasury spokesman Ed Balls rejected Conservatives' suggestions that he steered Barclays Plc toward Libor fixing in 2008.
The dispute stems from an Oct. 30, 2008 e-mail written by Robert Diamond, who quit yesterday as Barclays chief executive officer after the bank admitted to fixing the rate, which is used as a global benchmark. It cited the Bank of England's Paul Tucker as relaying a suggestion from a "senior" official to lower Libor. Conservatives openly speculated about the role of Balls, a former economic aide to Premier Gordon Brown who was then a minister.
"At no point did I have any conversation with Mr. Tucker at all, at any time when I was a Treasury minister, a Treasury adviser or subsequently to that when I was a Cabinet minister," Balls told the BBC today. "The allegations which are made are entirely false and without foundation."
Paul Myners, the City minister in Brown's Labour administration in 2008, also denied today he'd spoken to Tucker, now the central bank's deputy governor, about Libor. The then chancellor of the exchequer, Alistair Darling, issued a similar denial yesterday, and the BBC cited another ex-minister, Shriti Vadera, as saying she'd not spoken to anyone at the BOE about Libor.
Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said there were questions to be asked of "the Labour government and the people around Gordon Brown." In an interview with The Spectator to be published tomorrow, Osborne singled out Balls.
Osborne's Challenge
"My opposite number, who was the City minister for part of this period and Gordon Brown's right-hand man for all of it, so he has questions to answer," Osborne told the magazine. "That's Ed Balls by the way."
Balls was in charge of the government's financial policy for over a decade and served as Treasury minister in 2006 and 2007. Balls pointed to the fact that he was children's secretary in Brown's government at the time of the call in 2008.
Labour lawmaker Chris Leslie said Osborne is "lashing out in a frenzied way that demeans the office of the chancellor of the exchequer."
"It is now increasingly clear that he isn't interested in getting to the truth, only in playing party politics and throwing around false allegations with no evidence."
The e-mail in question, released by Barclays yesterday, was from Diamond to John Varley, the CEO at the time, and purported to recount his conversation with Tucker.
"Tucker stated that the levels of calls he was receiving from Whitehall were 'senior' and that while he was certain we did not need advice, that it did not always need to be the case that we appeared as high as we have recently," the e-mail said.
Categorical Denial
"I can say quite categorically I didn't speak to Paul Tucker or anybody at the Bank of England about the Libor rate-setting process," Myners told BBC Radio 4's "Today" program today. He said no one else at the Treasury under Darling was responsible either.
"I am absolutely sure Paul Tucker will have a recording of the conversation or he would have had his private secretary listening to the call," Myners said. "Paul Tucker will have his own contemporaneous record of that conversation. The Tories are putting a lot of flak up, trying to take attention away from their role."
Tucker today asked to testify in the House of Commons to give his version of what happened on the call with Diamond.

HOLLAND, MI – Three Republican candidates battling for the 90th District state House seat touted their conservative credentials at an Ottawa County Tea Party forum on Tuesday.
But the absence of a fourth candidate – one endorsed by term-limited state Rep. Joe Haveman, R-Holland – had organizers a bit frustrated.
Bob Harmsen, Geoff Haveman and David Kroll attended the forum, organized by the Ottawa County Patriots, at the Howard Miller Community Center, while Daniela Garcia was absent.
Jim Chiodo, a spokesman for the group, said the four candidates were contacted about the forum six weeks ago and invited to take part.
"We sent the invitations out way early to avoid (any potential conflicts)," Chiodo wrote in a post on a Facebook page promoting the forum. "Daniela didn't reply to multiple requests."
Garcia, a one-time aide to former U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra who now works in public policy at Spectrum Health, told MLive and The Grand Rapids Press in an email earlier Tuesday that she would not attend the forum because of "a prior commitment." A representative of Garcia's campaign said she was attending a Hudsonville City Commission meeting.
"She made a commitment to three forums – the Hudsonville Chamber (of Commerce), the (Michigan) West Coast Chamber and the Holland League of Women Voters (forums)," campaign co-chairman Kurt Van Koevering said.
The four Republican 90th District candidates are expected to attend the Holland League of Women Voters forum, which will take place at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 10 at Herrick District Library.
The hour-long forum was freewheeling – with candidates taking turns asking each other questions at the start before audience members chimed in. The candidates generally agreed on common conservative themes – opposition to the federal Affordable Care Act, opposition to the Common Core educational standards and stronger enforcement of immigration laws.
Harmsen, a construction company owner who lost to Joe Haveman in the 2008 Republican primary, spoke out in favor of returning education to locally-elected school boards and teachers.
"We're teaching right now to the next standardized test," he said. "We're not teaching kids for life."
Kroll, who works at Hillshire Brands and as a part-time truck driver, says the educational system needs to do a better job of preparing people to create their own businesses.
"They're teaching you how to be an employee," he said. "We don't need thousands and thousands of employees, we need thousands and thousands of job creators."
Geoff Haveman, who has a law practice in Zeeland, says state lawmakers need to be stronger in resisting federal programs he sees as unconstitutional, citing the Affordable Care Act as an example.
"When the federal government tries to get the states to do things that are beyond the scope of its authority, it often tries to get them to do that with funding," he said. "The state needs to know when the federal government is outside its bounds and have the internal fortitude to say no."
The winner of the Aug. 5 primary is virtually assured of winning the 90th District seat, as no Democrat is actively running. James Haspas' name is on the ballot, but he recently withdrew from the race, as has Republican Jim Holtrop, the current chair of the Ottawa County Board of Commissioners.

'Hub' of underage sex ads targeted by Washington lawmakers By Jonathan Kaminsky & KPLU News Staff • Jan 17, 2012 Associated Press OLYMPIA, Wash. — Washington state lawmakers introduced legislation Monday that would require classified-advertising companies to attempt to verify the age of escorts listed in sex-related postings. The bill was one of a dozen introduced by a bipartisan group of senators seeking to curb sex trafficking. McKenna threatens legal action against Backpage, if necessary By Monica Spain • Aug 31, 2011 Listen Listening... / The Washington State Attorney General wants a top provider of online adult sex ads to prove it's operating legally, calls Backpage.com a hub for human trafficking. Seattle confronts child prostitution problem after FBI sweeps By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jan 18, 2011 Photo courtesy of Women's Funding Alliance. Listen Listening... / Two years ago, the city of Seattle got the results of a harrowing study: it estimated as many as 500 children in King County are involved in prostitution. More recently, FBI sweeps have found more girls victimized here than anywhere else in the country. Seattle is identified by the FBI as one of the top ten human trafficking centers in the country - due in part, perhaps, to more effective law enforcement. Child Prostitutes Rescued in Seattle By Paula Wissel • Nov 9, 2010 FBI photo. Does Seattle have more child prostitutes than other cities? During a three-day crackdown, the FBI picked up more young prostitutes in this area than anyplace else. But, there could be another reason for the high number. The latest FBI sweep, called Operation Cross Country V, resulted in the arrest of 99 pimps. Agents also rescued 69 teenage prostitutes. Twenty-three of them were from our area, in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties.

Chocolate Bottom Macaroon Cookies
Posted By IsaChandra On December 23, 2011 @ 7:36 pm In Cookie,Recipe | 41 Comments
Makes 24 Cookies
Someone asked me to share this recipe because their Vegan Cookies [1] book went missing (so they say!) I figured why not just put it here for the world?
A crispy coconutty outside and moist sweet inside. That sounds good, right? Well, what if we told you it's also dipped in chocolate? These are irresistibly adorable, nugget sized morsels that look like they could double as the currency of magical forest creatures. A touch of almond extract really brings out the coconut. For variety, try the cocoa variation and have a double chocolate extravaganza.
3 oz extra firm silken tofu, like mori-nu (1/4 of the package)
1/3 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons non-dairy milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted in the microwave or on a double boiler
Cocoa Macaroon Cookies: Replace 1/4 cup of flour with 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa.
Chipper Macaroon Cookies: Add 1 cup mini chocolate chips to the batter
Touch of Orange Macaroon Cookies: Add 2 teaspoons orange zest to wet ingredients, leave out almond extract
Or try any combination above!
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line two baking sheets with parchment
Puree tofu, oil and milk in a blender or food processor until smooth, scraping down the sides with a spatula to make sure you get everything. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Mix in the sugar and extracts. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt until well incorporated. Mix in coconut until a stiff dough forms.
Drop cookies by the tablespoon onto cookie sheet 2 inches apart from each other, they don't spread much at all. Don't smooth the tops out, it's cool if they have some pieces of coconut sticking out to get a little browned. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, the bottoms should be lightly browned and the tops just barely flecked with color in a few spots.
Let cool on sheets for 2 minutes or so, then transfer to cooling racks to cool completely. In the mean time, melt the chocolate. Line a cutting board with parchment paper (it's fine to reuse the stuff you lined the sheets with). When cookies have cooled completely, dip the bottoms in chocolate and set chocolate side down on the parchment paper. Place in fridge to set for at least 15 minutes.
Keep stored in a tightly sealed container at room temperature. If it's hot out, keep in the fridge so the chocolate doesn't melt.

Costas is a joke. I lost all respect for him when he went on a 15 minute rant about how touchdown celebrations ruin football
Agreed. Did he talk about race? It is his favorite subject.

It takes two sides to negotiate a deal. If Bettman hasn't started talking, either has the Players Association.
Yeah, but the problem is there won't be any time for them to settle things. Negotiations take time, and if they wait until July to start, odds they are done by mid September are low. Bettman said this is not the right time to start a conflict, which implies there will be one. Costas asked if the NHL would try to go the way of the NFL and NBA and get player revenues down to 50%, instead of the 56-57% they receive right now. Don't remember what Bettman said, but he avoided an answer, then Stern leaned in and told Costas 'Yes'. He was like, "Hey, we can talk about it. We're just two guys talking. Gary is just sitting here."
Get the s*** out of the way while there is still time. We will not be 'okay' with another work stoppage.

Well, I've read and I've read and I've read. Am I smarter? Nope....my eyes hurt.
I'm getting that fasting is good for the body, cleans it out etc. Not sure I'm getting what is best time wise though. One says just eating once a day, 3 day fasts etc etc
Anyone have the Reader's Digest version of what's best.
I fasted yesterday. I had supper the nite before and I did not eat until 8:30 last nite. I thought about sticking it out over nite but wasn't sure. Had a couple of venison sausages (spicy) and 1/3 cup of turnips. Like I said, could have gone longer, but is it better? I'm not going to eat until tonite again. I'm going to have to change the time to earlier as I can't NOT be at the table with the family. Important time in our home to talk.
On another note, I've been eating Primal for a bit now. My carb intake is really low, (I track my food daily) I thought I'd be in Ketosis but according to Ketostix I'm neutral????????? I've tested in the morning as I've read that you mostly go into Ketosis at nite while sleeping.

EAST LIVERPOOL - The city will have its first new firefighter in many years next month when Jason Glista joins the department after successfully completing a round of testing and interviews.
He passed both the written exam and an agility test and was chosen from among eight successful candidates following interviews with fire Chief Bill Jones and Service-Safety Director Ryan Estell.
Glista is currently a part-time firefighter for Canfield, whose department is a combination of full- and part-time firemen.
As a condition of employment with East Liverpool, he must consider it his full-time department, according to Jones and Estell, who explained he could still serve on a part-time basis in Canfield or elsewhere, but if called for duty in the city, would be required to respond.
During his interview process, Glista indicated he plans on moving closer to the city, Jones said.
The new firefighter will be sworn in March 2 and assume his duties on March 5, eventually filling a vacancy to be created with the March 31 retirement of veteran firefighter Bill Miller.
With Miller's retirement and Glista's hiring, the department will remain at 12 firefighters plus Jones, but plans call for hiring six additional firefighters if Jones is successful in securing a SAFER grant.
The grant requires no matching funds from the city and will fund salary and benefits for firemen for two years, after which the city would be responsible for those costs.
Jones has also said he expects a "mass exodus" from the department over the next two to three years as firefighters reach retirement age, meaning positions will be opened up, allowing those hired with the grant to stay on.
The fire department union and city recently inked a new three-year contract that lowers the salary of new hires, as well as limits other benefits, which also is expected to free up money for the additional personnel.

I'm bringing home a new baby!
On Tuesday, I'm headed up to Oklahoma to bring a new "baby" home. Can you guess what it is? I'm pretty excited! I'm not however, looking forward to the drive. It's a full three hours each way, plus whatever time I spend there before heading back home.
It's a surprise though, I'm not saying what the new baby is until Tuesday!
I baked some wonderful smelling loaves of buttermilk oatmeal sandwich bread today for Jim's lunches.
And picked and shelled the last of the peas from the garden this morning. I dug up the first potatoes too, so tonight we'll be having fresh peas, fresh potatoes, and locally raised beef steaks for dinner, yum!
When will Tuesday get here? !!

When Perryton junior Reece Creswell produces a hit during a game, his helmet is allowed to sit among the other batting helmets in the Rangers dugout.
"But if I don't get a hit, my helmet has to be by itself until my next at bat," Creswell said of one of his many superstitions.
Well, these days Creswell's helmet is rarely lonely.
Creswell has been on a season-long rampage at the plate.
The 6-foot-3, 205-pound catcher enters his 22nd game tonight against District 1-3A rival Canyon batting an Amarillo-area best .627, with 11 home runs and 32 runs batted in.
Creswell has 32 hits this year, 22 of those either homers or doubles. In a game against Dalhart, he made five trips to the plate and belted three homers. The other two at bats? Creswell was intentionally walked.
"I don't try to hit home runs," Creswell said. "I just go up and try to hit the ball. I'm not sure how the home runs happen."
Creswell's 11 homers top all Amarillo-area high school hitters. In fact, the total combined home runs hit by Tascosa (4), Plainview (3), Dumas (2) and Canyon (2) equal Creswell's 11.
"Reece is as hot right now as any hitter we have ever had," said 15-year Perryton head baseball coach Bill Merrell, who has 216 career wins with the Rangers. "He is an exceptional kid. He works at hitting on a daily basis. If you leave one over the plate, he's going to get it. And he hits it so stinkin' hard.
"Some of the homers he has hit, I'm thinking they should serve peanuts on those flights."
Merrell said he has coached few players as intense as Creswell. Even fewer who have worked harder at hitting a baseball. And nobody who has been pitched around more by opponents than Creswell over the past two weeks.
Creswell was the Rangers leadoff hitter last year as a sophomore. He batted .517 and finished with a respectable four home runs. He has grown up under the inspiration of his older brother, Cody, who played baseball in college, and his dad, Brent, who has thrown endless hours of batting practice.
"What impressed me last year is that he could go deep into the count and still get a hit," Merrell said. "He played in Shattuck over the summer. Then over the winter months he has worked hard on the little bitty parts of the game. I don't know how many balls off the tee he has hit. And then the hours of soft toss."
Last summer, Creswell played in 60-70 games for a traveling team out of Shattuck, Okla., and learned under major league scout Jim Walton. During several winter Sundays, Creswell spent five-hour sessions with Walton.
Creswell takes batting practice with a wooden bat so his focus turns to hitting the ball on one sweet spot.
"Using a wooden bat helps you stay back better," Creswell said. "If you can hit it out with a wooden bat, you can hit it out with aluminum."
"What Reece is doing so well this year is seeing the ball," Merrell said. "And when he sees his pitch, he takes every bit of it. He is swinging to make contact. You would think by his swings he was swinging for the fence. But that's his hack. Reece does a great job of looking for his pitch."
Creswell had a rare day Tuesday against Borger. He went hitless in the 4-1 loss to the Bulldogs. Creswell said he saw one fastball in four at bats.
"And I didn't see Reece last night after the game, but I bet he went home and took 100 hacks," Merrell said. "He went somewhere and was swinging a bat."
Well, how about it Reece?
"I went under the lights and got in the cages," Creswell said. "I took 100 hacks."
Although a junior, Creswell has received letters from the Cincinnati Reds, Louisiana State, Arizona and Tulane.
"His dream is to play in front of 75,000-80,000 people and be in a situation where he has to hit the ball," Merrell said.
Creswell's 11 homers leave the lefty four shy of the Perryton school record home run record held by Matt Reynolds. He is nine home runs away from the all-time Panhandle mark of 20 set last spring by Randall's Chance Douglass.
For now, Creswell isn't thinking about his home runs. The Rangers are 3-3 in district and fighting for a playoff berth.
"I'd rather be undefeated and somebody else on our team have 11 home runs than me," Creswell said. "I don't pay much attention to stats. I'm glad to have the teammates I have. This isn't about me."

The family of Joe Paterno notified the NCAA on Friday of its intent to appeal major sanctions imposed on Pennsylvania State University last week by the regulatory body resulting from the Jerry Sandusky case.
In a letter to NCAA president Mark A. Emmert, a copy of which was obtained by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, family lawyer Wick Sollers notified the NCAA of the Paternos' intent to challenge the sanctions and a consent decree entered into by Penn State.
Sollers said that the NCAA "acted hastily and without any regard for due process," and that the university's trustee chair and president ignored what the attorney said were deep flaws in the report on which the sanctions were based.

CHESTER-Before he died on Sept. 27, 2013, Robert J. "Bob" Milby left his mark on Chester VFW Post 6450 through 65 years of work on behalf of the post and the community he loved.
Now that mark will be permanent.
At 5 p.m. today, the VFW post will rededicate itself as Bob Milby Post 6450, Veterans of Foreign Wars.
The idea to change the name came from a past commander who, after Milby died, suggested it to current Commander Dave Ash. The post previously was known as the Burge Casto Post.
The membership put it to a vote in November, and the name change passed unanimously, Ash said. "It was really quick. I was surprised," he said, noting that the national VFW approved it in December.
Ash said it's appropriate that Post 6450 should adopt Milby's name because of the legacy he left. "He made this post. Bob took this post from nothing to one of the most vibrant (VFW) posts in the nation," Ash said.
A native of Chester, Milby served in the U.S. Navy during World War II and returned home to become one of the charter members of Post 6450. From 1947 until his death, Milby served as the post's quartermaster, or treasurer.
With his background in banking-he was vice president of the First National Bank of East Liverpool for 28 years-Milby saw to it that the post's funds were invested wisely, Ash said.
"He handled all the money," he said. "He would take a dime and squeeze it, and it'd become a quarter."
Because of Milby's stewardship, Post 6450's charitable giving totals about $100,000 a year-for everything from police cruisers and police equipment to uniforms for the Oak Glen High School football, basketball and cheerleading teams, Ash said.
Ash said Milby liked to work in the background, so "he'd probably complain about us doing this (renaming). But we had to do something."
The dedication ceremony will begin at 5 p.m. with an outdoor plaque unveiling and a presentation by the joint American Legion/VFW Honor Guard. Indoors, there will be an open bar and a dinner, followed by a social time. Many of Milby's family members will be there, and past VFW West Virginia Commander Kelly Goddard will be guest speaker.
Bree Cooper, secretary of the VFW Post 6450 Ladies' Auxiliary, and Senior Vice Commander John Ash were the chief organizers of today's event, Dave Ash said.
"I think it's time we quit mourning and start celebrating," he said.

Macroeconomic Determinants of Exchange Rate Pass-Through in India
Amit Ghosh
Colorado College Department of Economics and Business
Ramkishen S. Rajan
ESSEC Business School
April 2007
This paper examines the evolution of exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) into India's consumer price index (CPI) at the aggregate level over the period 1980Q1-2006Q4. It also investigates whether the extent of exchange rate pass-through is impacted by common macro fundamentals such as inflation and exchange rate volatility. Finally, the paper also tests for possible asymmetries of ERPT during periods of depreciation versus appreciation.

Meals on Wheels Driver
The Meals on Wheels service provides home-delivered lunch time meals to people who cannot reasonably manage to prepare nutritious meals for themselves. In Auckland alone, our volunteer drivers deliver around 128,000 meals per year.
Using their own vehicle, drivers collect hot lunches from a depot, then deliver the meals to recipients following the accompanying distribution list. Due to the relatively small monthly time commitment, volunteers for the service are asked to consider helping on an ongoing basis.
Requirements: We are looking for friendly and considerate volunteers who are sensitive to the different needs and vulnerabilities of the recipients.
A reasonable level of fitness is preferable as volunteers will be carrying hot meals from vehicles to many different types of residences (steps/stairs to be expected).
Volunteers must have access to their own vehicle. Petrol vouchers are available after a designated number of routes have been completed (or can be donated back to support the programme).
Time commitment: Meals are collected and delivered around lunchtime on weekdays (not weekends or public holidays). A shift will usually take between 60 to 90 minutes to complete. Drivers commit to delivering approx. one day a fortnight or a month.
A 12 month commitment is expected.
Getting started: The first step is to express your interest by filling out the form below. We will then put you in touch directly with the organisation for more information on the role and how to proceed.

Tragedy struck at the Tygarts Valley High School football game Friday night when an altercation between two male students turned deadly, Randolph County Superintendent of Schools Dr. James Phares said.
One of the students died after being stabbed by a TVHS classmate outside the stadium, according to multiple reports and witness accounts at the scene.
Phares confirmed the fatality in an interview with The Inter-Mountain late Friday night.

Inter-Mountain photos by Andrew Davis
Members of the Tygarts Valley football team pause in prayer following their game against Hundred High. A Tygarts Valley student was stabbed to death prior to the contest.
Tygarts Valley assistant coach Scott Felton consoles a player after the news of the fatal stabbing spread through the stadium.
"Prior to the start of the game tonight, two students of Tygarts Valley High School were involved in a confrontation," Phares said. "One of the students was wounded critically and did succumb to his wounds and passed away."
The incident happened about 20 minutes before kickoff in the Tygarts Valley High School and Hundred High School matchup. The start of the game was delayed and the stadium was placed on lockdown.
Prior to that, at around 7:10 p.m., several individuals could be heard yelling from inside Bulldog Field that someone had been stabbed. This prompted reaction from many who had gathered in advance of the game. An overhead announcement was made directing Tygarts Valley players to return to their locker room. Their opponent, the Hornets, had yet to take the field.
Eyewitness accounts indicate the altercation occurred in front of George Ward Elementary in the adjacent parking lot. A male was seen running from that area into the stadium and heading toward the bleachers. The individual then continued toward the graveyard and field house, and it appeared as though he was being pursued, according to reports from the scene.
West Virginia State Police were dispatched to the incident around 7:15 p.m. Troopers were using metal detectors to search the area around George Ward Elementary, according to scanner traffic through the Randolph County 911 Center. Witnesses at the scene said the search appeared to be an effort to find the weapon allegedly used in the incident, and law enforcement officials remained in the graveyard area throughout portions of the game.
Phares said the suspect was detained, and an announcement during halftime indicated an arrest was made.
The injured student was transported from the scene via ambulance by Randolph County EMS to Davis Memorial Hospital. Around 8:45 p.m., a state police communications officer stated that a medical transport helicopter was en route to Elkins. Social media reports indicate the student died before further transport could occur.
People claiming to be family members of the juvenile took to Facebook to discuss the tragedy as it unfolded. They identified the alleged victim as Dustin "Dusty" White. This information could not be confirmed by The Inter-Mountain through official outlets at presstime.
However, Karen McCauley Ray, who identified herself as White's aunt, posted the following.
"Please pray for my family. My nephew just died from being stabbed at the football game. Keep Kevin and Stacy White and their other children in your prayers. Jesus, please come back soon, we can't take much more," Ray wrote.
The posts, including the one above, prompted an outpouring of public comment. When asked about the posts, Phares said all further information would be released by Randolph County Prosecuting Attorney Michael Parker.
"At this juncture, the investigation is ongoing," Parker told The Inter-Mountain. "It is a juvenile matter, and everything is confidential by law."
As news of the incident spread throughout Bulldog Field, the crowd quieted, and many left at halftime - even though the game was played to its full conclusion. Some of the TVHS cheerleaders left the game at halftime. Witnesses reported the girls were visibly upset and some were seen crying.
Many members of the Bulldog football team also were seen crying as they competed against the Hornets. At the conclusion of the game, both teams gathered at midfield in a "prayer circle."
Other students played a more active role in the case. Phares said, in accordance with state policy, the school system had to contact the parents of juveniles who may have witnessed the altercation to notify them their child was being interviewed by police. It is unclear when those interviews will be completed.
Now, Phares said, the focus turns toward helping the student body process the loss of a classmate.
"Randolph County Schools will over the weekend implement the crisis management plan in order to provide support to students and to provide counseling to students who may need it," Phares said." Our thoughts and prayers go out to the parents of the student who passed away."

Lake levels are rising and so is optimism among boat dealers setting up for this weekend's Sacramento Boat Show and Off Road Exhibition.
Watch now: Boat show sails into Sacramento this weekend
Hundreds of boats and thousands of accessories are on display in Cal Expo's Pavillion for the annual show.
As the state endures an ongoing drought, boaters have been concerned about the summer ahead as some of their favorite lakes hit historic lows.
Boat dealers said they were forced to order their summer inventory even as water levels continued to decline.
Recent rain and snow has fueled optimism as favorite spots such as Folsom Lake have doubled in water storage in the last month, according to Department of Water Resources statistics.
Craig Larson, of Larson Marine, said they are also seeing renewed confidence among buyers who are now coming back into the leisure market looking for fun.
Organizers of the boat show said they had to add a temporary tent to accommodate vendor requests for more floor space this year.
The show grew 15 percent over last year's show, according to the show's promoter.
The company sees this is as a positive sign despite the drought, fuel prices and the economy.
The Sacramento Boat Show and Off Road Exposition runs through Sunday. Adult tickets are $12. Children under 12 are free.

Dr. Howe did her undergraduate work at U.C. Santa Barbara, and her graduate work at U.C. Riverside, in the area of developmental psychology. She did her master's and doctoral work on abused children's social and emotional development. Her work with abused children led her to delve deeply into the theory and research of parent-child attachment. She began to recognize that violence is not just a problem with individual families, but that societies vary in family violence rates. In addition to adhering strongly to attachment theory, she formed theoretical alliances with Vygotsky's sociocultural theory (recognizing the importance of more advanced members of one's culture for the individual's cognitive growth), and Bronfenbrenner's Bioecological Theory (showing how each individual exists within multiple systems of influence, from families, to neighborhoods, to social systems, to cultures).
When Tasha finished her Ph.D., she went on to an NIMH-sponsored postdoctoral program in Developmental Psychopathology at Vanderbilt University. There she completed a study on the impact of the timing of abuse on children's externalizing (e.g. aggression) and internalizing (e.g. depression) problems.
Dr. Howe's first faculty position was at a small, private liberal arts college in Kentucky, where she specialized in all forms of human development, both normal and atypical. She came to HSU in 2002. She teaches most of the courses in the department related to child and family development, including human development, developmental psychopathology, family relations in contemporary society (for which she wrote the textbook), and family violence.
