2016 Winners
Congratulations to the 2016 Campsite Challenge winners Camp Solar Solstice in the May E Ilium Campground. They'll be receiving free 4-day passes and camping for the 2017 Festival.
"Not only do we try to camp and do festivals as green as we can.. but also try to incorporate our environmentally friendly habits in everything we do. As for our campsite, our biggest theme for the weekend was that everything we used ran on solar (4 venture 30 goal zero panels, powering a yeti 1250 goal zero battery bank, minus our small propane stove). That included our fridge/freezer (no ice needed), all lights including fun solar changing lanterns, our speaker for music around camp, and even extra power because of the long sunny days for our neighbors and friends recharging needs."
- Taylor and Tanaia McBride, Camp Solar Solstice
Solar Solstice tips for Festivarian campers: "We love what a great time Telluride Bluegrass is, and know that if we all do our best to keep our impact down the chances of it making it another 40 years is much greater!
Some Tips from Leave No Trace
Bigfoot at Telluride Bluegrass
- Re-use is the name of the game. Bring re-usable cups, plates, napkins, etc. This will reduce the amount of trash you generate.
- Good campsites are found, not made. Bring folding tables, chairs, or other amenities to make a comfortable camp. Remember to take everything you brought with you, and leave the area better than you found it.
- Establish a clean and green camping community. Work together with other nearby campers to share your resources and strive to Leave No Trace in a fun and festive manner.
- Secure your food. Human food is unhealthy for wildlife. Protect the locals and your food by storing all your food, trash, and compost securely in your camp.

Warm air Furnace
With new gas valve and thermocouple the furnace maintains pilot and when thermostat calls for heat furnace goes to main flame and keeps going for hours but when it has reached temperature main flam closes down and extinguishes pilot as well. Any ideas what is wrong?
Moved to HVAC forum.
Could be a crack in the heat exchanger opening up. Anytime a problem could be a heat exchanger breach it's time to put the tools down and call a pro.
sitting in front of the furnace looking into the main burner section restart it ...with the main burner lighting up then note the supply fan coming on.if you see the slightest wave in the burner flames the heat exchangers is cracked...the pressure of that fan is leaking into the burner section and in turn the fle gases leak ino the supply air
after checking what the others said....if valve is new was manifold pressure set right. could be comming on hard and going off hard blowing pilot out.. is pilot strong enough...ben sr
Have someone turn the furnace on for 10 minutes and then off while you are watching the pilot flame through the entire heating cycle..
As others have said..does the pilot flame differ between when the blower is working and not.
Does the pilot flame lift off the thermocouple from the exchanger heat drawing air with a natural draft furnace when the main burners turn off.
(or at anytime through the heating cycle.)
Is there a small explosive popping when the main gas goes off that is extingushing the pilot.
Is the thermocouple presently fully enveloped by the pilot flame.
Send a photo of the new gas valve directed at the side that the pilot thermocouple attaches to. Some have eco connections that allow the metering of the thermocouple output while its still attached to the gas valve. This would tell you what the real pilot output is and whether the new pilot solinoid is actually strong enough.
Report back what you see as they all have different solutions.
Problem has changed, now main flame won't ignite, pilot still going but blew 500mlamp fuse, replaced but still won't go.

I have lived in my house for almost 20 years. I refinanced in 2003 with national city mortgage. They were sold to PNC. In 2007 I was laid off my job and was out of work for 6 months, my new job paid almost half of what I was making. I got 3 months behind on my mortgage payments. Over the next several years I was put on repayment plans. I was paying anywhere from 100.00 to 300.00 a month over reg. monthly payments but never could get caught up. I was told to apply for a loan modification and they could put my late payments at end of loan.
I applied faxed my application. When I tried to make my monthly payment they said I couldn't because it was in modification and to put it away and pay when I get approved. They would tell me they had all paperwork then 2 weeks later they would need something else. I endded up refaxing paperwork like at least 5 different times then they sd they could not accept paperwork because was faxed at different times so I faxed everything again. By then they sent it into foreclosure. They were a big help. Well we got turned down for modification but said we could go on a new repayment plan that would save it from foreclosure auction. I had to pay 2977.00 down and an additional 540.62 on top of my nomal mortgage payment for 11 months. If I made all these payments my loan would be current. My original cure amount was for approx 11,000 in march. I made down payment and the first 6 payments. I want to make my loan current so I asked for amount owed thinking it would be 540.62 X 5 more months and maybe 1000.00 in additional fees. I expected approx payoff of about 3000-4000.00. You know what they say I owe to make current 10,300.00. Their attorney sd tthis is what I owe. I've been making my payments for 7 months and I still owe as much now as I did in March. They are nothing but a RIP-OFF
I just filed a complaint with attorney general. I

Public Relations Disaster Management
Posted on Oct 30, 2007
By Marie Cocco
WASHINGTON—Though time will certainly tell, the Bush administration so far has not yet surpassed that of Richard Nixon's in its contempt for a free press and its unrelenting war on the truth. Its latest miscarriage of misinformation—a fake "press conference" run by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to update the country on the California wildfires—doesn't match Nixon's inclusion of disfavored journalists on an "enemies list" to be targeted with wiretaps and tax audits.
Yet the FEMA fiasco does fit in neatly with the Bush pattern of duplicity, secrecy and possible lawbreaking in its public relations. And it works. That is, until someone catches them in the act.
In this case, as fires consumed thousands of homes in Southern California, left hundreds of thousands homeless and at least seven dead, FEMA officials—eager not to convey information but to burnish the blackened image the agency earned with its response to Hurricane Katrina—decided to call what it billed as a news conference. But it gave actual reporters too little time to get to the event, and set them up instead on a telephone conference line on which they could listen but were barred from asking questions.
The queries instead came from FEMA employees, who offered such piercing inquiries as this: "Are you happy with FEMA's response so far?" To which FEMA Deputy Administrator Harvey E. Johnson replied: "I'm very happy with FEMA's response so far."
The phony news conference was carried live on some cable television news stations, complete with the official trappings—the podium, the FEMA seal used as a backdrop. A sign-language interpreter gestured diligently as Johnson spoke. The sham would probably have worked if not for The Washington Post, which exposed the agency a few days after the faux news conference was held.
Square, Site wide
And you want to believe her. If only the facts did not get in the way.
This is no isolated incident but only the latest in a series of scandals involving the Bush administration and its manufacturing of "news." Two years ago, the Government Accountability Office found that the administration had violated a law against "covert propaganda" by paying conservative commentator Armstrong Williams to praise the No Child Left Behind Act in his columns and television appearances. The GAO also said the law was broken when the administration used public funds to pay a public relations company to analyze the media to determine if it carried the message: "The Bush administration/the GOP is committed to education."
Government money also was used to produce prepackaged video "news releases" featuring a phony reporter who praised both the Bush education policies and the Medicare drug benefit. Some news stations used the videos without disclosing they were produced by the government.
Like its forerunners, the FEMA fakery isn't just spin but something worse. It's government-sponsored propaganda. When the Chinese and other global miscreants practice it, we condemn it. When the Bush administration does it, it seems to blend into the background of disinformation and outright untruths that have damaged the president's credibility at home and, more ominously, overseas.
Even now, an army of administration officials and their allies in the conservative media are recklessly promoting the idea that the United States and indeed, the world, have almost no choice but to bomb Iran for its presumed pursuit of nuclear weapons capabilities. The drumbeat is an eerie reprise of the run-up to the Iraq invasion, when anyone who countered the administration's apocalyptic vision of a "mushroom cloud" originating from Baghdad was vilified as a hapless wimp, or worse, a terrorist sympathizer.
While its ramifications are not nearly so dire, the FEMA imbroglio shares this hallmark with so many other Bush administration media gambits: It reveals a complete insensitivity to the dangers and devastating losses experienced by the people directly touched by tragedy. Thousands of Southern Californians are experiencing an unimaginable upheaval. They've lost their homes, their businesses, their jobs, their neighborhoods.
The reality of this loss is itself discredited by FEMA's phoniness, and this arrogant agency has again discredited itself.

When Bush speaks to the media and the American people he tells us the lie the whole lie and nothing but the lie.

What is the difference?Do you really think the morons in the media would have asked any better questions?You mentioned the run up to war boy the media was all over that story like paid lackeys of the administration.A small oulet McClatchy newspapers got it right and the media that was not at the fake press conference got it wrong.You are missing the big picture.Our media sucks to put it bluntly.You can take it as a given that the Bush administration could screw up a wet dream.Yet they have controlled this media like an old time plantation owner with slaves.Nixon 10 times smarter than Bush never had this type control over the media.Ms Cocco go back and check or ask reporters from that era.I cringe to think what evil Nixon or Kissinger could accomplish today with the complete control over the media that exists in our society today.

I agree with Ocjim, Bush is way worse than Nixon, because it's true: The corporate media doesn't NEED to be threatened by the President directly for the most part. The owners of those News corps. are all too happy to control, can and threaten reporters for him.

Bush doesn't worry about the media because for the most part he controls it.Most reporters refused to ask him tough questions and when he doesn't answer the question he isn't held to account. The lack of any investigative reporting, and the large media conglomerates allows for less scrutiny of Bushes policies. Then there's fox news, Sean Hannity,Rush Limbaugh,Ann Colter.Bill O Racist,the lying Dana Perino,Tony Snow Job and a large host of other spin miesters who lie, deceive, and distort the truth to the American people. How do you think we wound up in Iraq? And by the way, the spin machines are working to get us into Iran. Nixon had reason to worry, we had reporters who wanted the truth and not just the news stories for ratings. But the own powerful spin machine that call itself a media today are the corporate cronies of Bush.

Jefferson City girl found, considered a runaway
Sarah Rujawitz, 16, in custody after being found safe
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - The family of a Jefferson City girl missing since last month says she is safe, police now say she is in custody.
Sarah Rudjawitz's family said Monday she had been found safe. Jefferson City police said she had been detained and was in the juvenile center.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children reported Rujawitz had last been seen on Jan. 27.
She is 16 years old with brown hair and hazel eyes. She is about 5'6" tall and 160 pounds.
A Jefferson City police spokesman told ABC 17 News Monday Rujawitz was never considered a "missing person" by law enforcement because she was a runaway.
