Councilwoman Feels Vindicated After Secret Recording Saga Concludes
An Evansville City Councilwoman is in the clear after a lengthy investigation determined she didn't break state law when she secretly recorded a confidential meeting with state auditors concerning the state of the city's finances.
Councilwoman Stephanie Brinkerhoff-Riley had been under investigation after recording and later releasing contents of a March exit conference concerning the city's 2012 audit done by the State Board of Accounts.
Brinkerhoff-Riley never denied recording the meeting and remained firm on her belief that the public had the right to know.
The five page report authored by Gibson County Prosecutor Robert Krieg, the special prosecutor in the case, said as the state law is written, Brinkerhoff-Riley did not violate the law. The state statutes covering the confidentiality of exit conferences only applies to the auditor or examiner and not those who attended the conference, Krieg said in his report. Krieg also concluded that the duty of confidentiality does not apply to Brinkerhoff-Riley in her role as a councilmember.
"[The lead examiner of the audit], Mr. Linneweber responded by stating that although Ms. Brinkerhoff-Riley's actions were concerning, it had not prevented, delayed or interfered with his team in completing the audit," Krieg said in his report. "Mr. Linneweber further stated that the final audit report that was published in June was virtually the same as the preliminary report reviewed at the exit conference in March."
The 2012 audit determined the city had not properly record payroll funds by under paying pensions and over paying certain employees. he councilwoman points out the alleged money mismanagement is in lieu of the city spending nearly $2 million on software support, hiring an extra full time employee, and spending money to hire outside accounting firms.
The report seemingly has ended the two-month-long controversy that also resulted in Brinkerhoff-Riley resigning as council vice president.
"It's been a test of my perseverance as well as my patience that I have had to overcome," Brinkerhoff-Riley said. "You have to hope. You have to have faith that, despite the hysterical allegations that you've done something horrible, that the truth will come out in the end."
Brinkerhoff-Riley remained defiant through the whole ordeal and remains determined now. The democrat still believes the audit exit conferences, which have historically been confidential, should be open to the public.
"The public should be able to ask questions," Brinkerhoff-Riley said. "It shouldn't be just me that has the ability to know these things. If someone has a problem with me and how I represent them, then we'll settle it in the ballot box in 2015. I'll accept those consequences just like any other politician."
Mayor Lloyd Winnecke has previously stated that Brinkerhoff-Riley's actions were 'disappointing.' Despite Krieg's conclusions on the case, Winnecke said the controversy brought negative attention to the city while also possibly undermining the city's standing with the State Board of Accounts.
"Regardless of the legal opinion, Councilwoman Stephanie Brinkerhoff-Riley's actions clearly damaged the city's credibility with the State Board of Accounts and created an unnecessary atmosphere around our annual audit process," Mayor Winnecke said in a statement. "In my opinion, her actions did not meet the ethical standards for a public official and it is my hope that this embarrassing situation can be a lesson learned and we can focus on the city's business at hand."

A silver medal to the men's lightweight four took Rowing New Zealand into new territory.
Curtis Rapley, Peter Taylor, James Lassche and James Hunter secured the country's first world championship medal in that class. Denmark beat them by 1.60 after leading throughout.
New Zealand cut the Danish lead in the third 500m but could not haul them in on the final stretch.
The women's double of Zoe Stevenson and Fiona Bourke also took silver, pipped by 0.04s on the line.
Coached by Dick Tonks, the New Zealand crew took the lead at the 1000m mark by 0.29s but relinquished it at 1500m by 0.17s.
Triumph escaped them when they were hunted down by the Lithuanians over the final 200m in a daunting surge.
Stevenson and Bourke sat on the jetty in shock for several minutes before making their way to the dais.
Single sculler Emma Twigg completed the New Zealand programme with silver, the best result of her career. She finished a length back from Australian Kim Crow.
Twigg's effort brought the New Zealand medal tally to one gold, three silver and one bronze. The minimum requirement of High Performance Sport New Zealand was four medals.
Men's double scullers Robbie Manson and Michael Arms finished last. They were unable to find the impetus to sustain their three World Cup victories in the wake of Arms' recent back injury.
Norway's combination of Nils Jakob Hoff and Kjetil Borch eased to victory with Hoff taking the opportunity to prop off his oar and stand triumphant in the boat.
Andrew Alderson travelled to South Korea courtesy of Rowing New Zealand and its principal partner Bankstream.

The soda tax is pure liberal feel good nanny-statism (that has little to no impact on said liberals -- which I am one of).
Not only are (non-luxury) sales taxes by definition regressive, these sorts of taxes have a disparate impact on the poor and working class (like Washington's old per-bottle tax on booze, divorced from cost).
When the damned Seattle Time's is calling you out for targeting minorities and the poor, you know you're doing something pretty serious.

Not to mention Dan would call the guy a snooping asshole who got what he deserved.
But in this case, an even easier explanation: she invited him, he didn't know if he was going to go to the drinks, and didn't want to create drama if he didn't (for self-serving reasons, or so you'd be able to focus on her law school exams). Because obviously it would have created drama, the letter writer makes that much obvious.

FBI: Clinton "Extremely Careless" With Classified Material, But No Charges
I'm increasingly of the mind Ansel is willfully stupid. This was basis for criminal prosecution, not administrative sanction. That's why the FBI was involved.
And Jesus Christ, did any of you calling for Clinton to be charged listen to the press conference/read the transcript? The FBI could find no cases to merit prosecution. The instances where such things involve criminal prosecution all had multiple aggravating factors that resulted in criminal charges being filed. If a bunch of career lawyers think there's zero basis for going forward and that no responsible prosecutor would do so, let the criminal aspects rest.
That being said, none of those facts speak to temperament, responsibility, or fit for office. Good thing she's running against a Republican who has all three of those in spades, eh?

Hey YIMBYs, Show Up at This Anti-Upzone Meeting in the University District Tonight
@11 Paltry amount of parks/green space? There's effectively a giant park that runs from 45th to 38th, and besides the few buildings throughout (most of which make it even prettier), it's five blocks wide. No, campus is not *technically* a park, but it's public land and very much green space accessible to all!
I'm all for this, but I question the premise that Link is going to transform the U District, given that the UD is already the most accessible neighborhood via transit in the city (excepting downtown), arguably the only one fairly easily accessible from most anywhere else in the city; Link doesn't really change that. Increase, sure. Yuuge? Doubtful.

In Praise of Chaotic Caucuses (2016 Edition)
Eli, I know this is hard to grasp, despite you seemingly understanding it in other places in your article, but federal holidays are federal. You know, hence the "federal holiday" thing.
The federal government can't compel a state to recognize a federal holiday. And state primaries and caucuses are not all held on the same day throughout the country. So... you want the federal government to give federal employees (thus around the country) the day off on the Saturday that Washington holds it caucus?
Few federal employees in non-emergency jobs work Saturdays, in case you were not aware. And few other states give a flying fuck that Washington has a caucus (before its primary) on a certain Saturday.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: what's your fucking point on this again?

Evidence Syllabus
LAW 6330—Section 02BB
Professor Pedro A. Malavet
Fall 2016
Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays
10:50 a.m. to 12:00 noon
Room 355C
General Rules
The required class materials are: (1) Christopher B. Mueller and Laird C. Kirkpatrick, EVIDENCE UNDER THE RULES (8th. ed., Aspen Law & Business 2015; ISBN: ISBN: 978-1-4548-4952-0); (2) Mueller & Kirkpatrick, 2016: Federal Rules of Evidence: With Advisory Committee Notes and Legislative History (Aspen Law & Business 2016; ISBN: 978-1-4548-7557-4).
- I will once again be using the Eigth Edition of Mueller and Kirkpatrick's textbook and their updated rules supplement for the Fall of 2016.
- DO NOT PURCHASE A USED SUPPLEMENT: The Rules Supplement is the 2016 edition, newly-issued in the summer of 2015. You are allowed to annotate the supplement with your own outline and no other supplement will be allowed in the examination room. You must purchase a print version of the supplement if you want to use it in the exam. Electronic copies will not be allowed.
- Open Rules. "Open-Rules" means that you may have with you during the examination your required 2016 Mueller & Kirkpatrick Federal Rules of Evidence supplement. No substitutions will be allowed. Your supplements may be annotated with handwritten notes, but shall not have any attachments other than tabs to mark the location of specific material (the tabs may have on them numbers and the short titles of the referenced material and nothing more). Only handwriting may cover the blank spaces and the original printing on the supplements. The use of stick-on labels or paper, white-out or any other method to eliminate any of the original printing is prohibited. Other than the addition of handwritten notes and tabs, the supplements shall be in their original condition, no material may be added nor may any material be removed in any way. The supplements must be in their original bound form at the start of and throughout the examination.
Assignment Sheets. I will post weekly assignment sheets with specific assignments in the course website. I will attempt to structure assignments by class session. Students, especially those who sign-up for a particular class, should check with me to make sure what material will be covered. Students must read the assigned pages in the text as well as the pertinent Federal Rules of Evidence in your Supplement. The Notes and Comments in the Rules are extremely helpful and should likewise be included in your reading.
Office Hours: I will have regular office hours, on Wednesdays, from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. I will also have office hours on Thursdays from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. My office is in Room 337 in Holland Hall. You may also see me after class or schedule appointments, subject to my having available time. Take advantage of office hours as early as possible in the semester. Do not wait until the end of the course to review material and bring your questions to me. Review material regularly, at least as we finish different sections. Additionally, if you feel lost, or if you have doubts that cannot be resolved during class or during the period immediately following it, please do not hesitate to come and see me. Office time is also a good opportunity to explore matters that are not directly related to the material being discussed in class.
Office hours are also an opportunity for you to become more comfortable with my mandatory class-participation policy. You are encouraged to come by and talk to me during office hours before you sign up to participate in class, or in anticipation of your turn, to chat with me about the material. In the past, I have been pleased to see that students who dread class-participation have really done well by simply "talking it through" with me beforehand.
E-mail. You may communicate with me by E-mail, but only for administrative matters. My address is firstname.lastname@example.com. E-mail messages from students must include the student's full name, so that I may ensure that I am communicating with a member of the class. I rarely answer substantive questions by E-mail because I find it a very inadequate medium to discuss course content. I rarely reply to attendance-related messages, since I check that at the end of the semester.
Web Page, eLearning on Canvas. This Syllabus and the currently-available weekly Assignment Sheets will be posted on my web site (http://nersp.osg.ufl.edu/~malavet). Additionally, I have created an area in the site for extensive evidence notes and will updated these class materials during the semester, as I deem appropriate. I have also created a Canvas course page in which I have posted printouts of the Power Point slides that I used last semester and I will update these printouts as I make changes to the current pages. I do not place materials on reserve in the library and I will not print out the material posted on the web site. It is your responsibility to review the website and the Canvas at eLearning course page regularly for updated class information; this is considered as part of your class participation for my course.
Testing: You will have to complete a practical project that will consist of drafting a motion in limine based on a fact pattern that I will design. This project will be assigned during the second half of the semester and will account for 10% of your testing score and it will be graded on a pass/fail basis. The remaining 90% of your testing score will be a points-graded, open-rule, proctored, written final exam will be given on the date set by the administration.
Open-Rules: "Open-Rules" means that you may have with you during the examination your required 2016 Mueller & Kirkpatrick Federal Rules of Evidence supplement. No substitutions will be allowed. Your supplements may be annotated with handwritten notes, but shall not have any attachments other than tabs to mark the location of specific material (the tabs may have on them numbers and the short titles of the referenced material and nothing more). Only handwriting may cover the blank spaces and the original printing on the supplements. The use of stick-on labels or paper, white-out or any other method to eliminate any of the original printing is prohibited. Other than the addition of handwritten notes and tabs, the supplements shall be in their original condition, no material may be added nor may any material be removed in any way. The supplements must be in their original bound form at the start of and throughout the examination. Violations of the University Student Code of Conduct, the College of Law Honor Code or of the exam rules should be reported to me before or during the examination. Violation of these rules shall result in a failing grade and in my referring the matter to the pertinent university or college authorities.
Grading and Class Participation: When determining your final grades, I will consider class participation, to adjust your testing score, in two ways:
- Minimum participation. (20% of the overall grade.) Each student will be required to participate in class discussion, probably at least two to three times during the semester -the exact number depends on the size of the class, and will be announced early in the semester- in order to meet minimum participation requirements. My basic system for class participation requires that you sign-up to participate in the discussion during an upcoming class, using forms that I will bring to class every week; volunteers will be chosen for each class session. Signing up should be done during the entire semester. Students may not sign up more than once every three weeks. The advantages of this system are that you know you are "on call," the material that we will be covering, and it only happens a few times during the semester. Students who sign-up, are called upon, and answer correctly, get a participation credit, if they are unprepared, they will suffer an automatic deduction. I may call upon students at random as well. Additionally, you may raise your hand and offer to answer questions at any time. But you must still comply with the minimum participation requirements, unless I instruct you otherwise. Minimum Class Participation further includes:
- Regularly accessing the class materials made available online both in my webpage or in the class Canvas page.
- The notes in my website will give you major discussion points for which you should prepare. All students should review them before class, especially those who have signed up to participate on a particular date.
- All students must regularly access the Canvas page. Please note that Canvas analytics log each student's use of the course pages in great detail and I will use that to show your compliance with this requirement.
- Review one of the videos on US Courts and the American Oral Jury Trial that are posted on Canvas.
- ONE visit to my office during office hours during the semester to ask a substantive class question.
- Regularly accessing the class materials made available online both in my webpage or in the class Canvas page.
- Quality of Participation. I will consider the quality of student participation and conduct to further adjust final grades, as I deem appropriate.
- Current Grading Scale. The University of Florida follows a letter grade and grade point average system with a maximum letter grade of "A" and a maximum GPA of 4.0. Please visit the University Registrar's site for information on the current grade scale. [https://catalog.ufl.edu/ugrad/current/regulations/info/grades.aspx]
Class Attendance and Conduct: Attendance is mandatory. Additionally, students arriving late or leaving the room during class are an undue distraction. I will take roll daily by passing around a sign up sheet. It is the student's responsibility to initial the sign-up sheet in the appropriate place whenever they are in class, i.e., the roll does not have to come to you, you must come to the roll. Failure to sign the roll will be treated as an unexcused absence. I will allow three (3) unexcused absences per semester on a no-questions-asked basis (provided however that none of them may occur during the last eight sessions of the semester). Additionally, I am willing to be flexible about allowing a few excused absences, late arrivals or early departures, for good cause —such as a doctor's appointment, child-care problem or job interview— provided that the good cause is brought to my attention beforehand or as soon as possible thereafter in the case of unanticipated occurrences. Excuses must be submitted in writing or via E-mail. Students will have no more than seven days after the time of the unanticipated occurrence to bring excuses to my attention, provided however that I will not accept any excuses offered after our last session of the semester. Signing an attendance sheet for a classmate, or having a classmate sign an attendance sheet for you shall result in administrative removal from the course. There will be seating chart for our course. Students are required to get their names on the chart and thereafter to abide by the seating arrangement designated therein.
- Virtual Attendance. Home sick? Have to travel for a job interview? But you want to attend class? I will gladly work with students to allow virtual class attendance using tablets (you can dial-in on Skype or Facetime) or by using the dedicated classroom webcam. I will only authorize this for good cause and it must be arranged with me ahead of time. However, I will treat virtual students as "present" for attendance policy purposes (and it seems to work like a live class).
Electronics in the Classroom. Pagers and cellular telephones should be turned off during class (unless you need to be "on call" for serious matters; in such cases, however, please put the phone or pager on "vibrate only" mode).
Laptop Use. Laptop computers are wonderful tools for class-related note-taking and reference, however, during class time it is inappropriate to use laptops for any other purpose. In addition to any other appropriate sanction, laptop use in class is a privilege and —pursuant to our faculty policy— I will suspend or rescind it, individually or collectively, if it is abused.
Professionalism in the Classroom. Naturally, you are all bound by the Regulations of the University of Florida, University Student Code of Conduct, the College of Law Honor Code and my rules. But more than obeying rules, classroom behavior is about showing proper professionalism. Proper conduct in the classroom is intended to encourage everyone to participate in, to derive benefit from, and ultimately to enjoy the class. It is perfectly acceptable, and indeed professionally required, that you demand professional behavior of your classmates in and out of class. If you see conduct that is unprofessional and that affects your quality of life in the classroom or at the college of law, you should privately approach the offending student and ask that they modify their behavior. If private discussion is impractical or unsuccessful, you should bring the matter to the attention of the instructor or an appropriate official at the College of Law or the University of Florida. You should do so privately, though not anonymously, but you are strongly encouraged to bring serious matters to my attention, or that of other pertinent authorities, as soon as possible, so that I, or they, may take appropriate measures.
Sanctions. Absences, tardiness and any other unprofessional conduct will be initially dealt with on a case-by-case basis as a matter of course grading, at the discretion of the instructor. The imposition of disciplinary measures will follow the process provided in the Regulations of the University of Florida, University Student Code of Conduct and the College of Law Honor Code. Serious class disruptions may result in expulsion from the disrupted session. Excessive absences -even if an excuse is offered*- may result in administrative removal of the offending student from the course or in a reduction of his/her grade. Absent waiver, other matters will be referred to the pertinent committee or administrative hearing, without prejudice to the instructor's normal grading discretion.
- * While I would not reduce someone's grade for excessive excused absences, I might administratively remove them from the course, although I would ensure that this was done on a "passing" basis. I would do this if, in my judgment, the person has missed so much of the semester that he or she cannot really benefit from the course.
Religious Holy Days. Absences due to observance of a religious holy day shall be treated as excused absences. Please inform me via email.
The College of Law's Policy on Religious Holy Days states: The College of Law respects students' observance of major religious holidays. If an instructor has an attendance policy limiting the number of absences, reasonable alternative means shall be established by the instructor to satisfy the attendance policy and accommodate the religious obligations of the student.
The University of Florida Policy on Religious Holy Days is as follows: Students, upon prior notification to their instructors, shall be excused from class or other scheduled academic activity to observe a religious holy day of their faith. Students shall be permitted a reasonable amount of time to make up the material or activities covered in their absence. Students shall not be penalized due to absence from class or other scheduled academic activity because of religious observances. If a faculty member is informed of or is aware that a significant number of students are likely to be absent from his or her classroom because of a religious observance, a major exam or other academic event should not be scheduled at that time. A student who is to be excused from class for a religious holy day is not required to provide a second party certification of the reasons for the absence.
Exam Make-up and accommodation. Exam make-ups will be as authorized by the Professor Malavet. Exam accommodation is managed by the Levin College of Law's Office of Student Affairs. Please visit theOffice of Student Affairs' page to review the College's policies in this regard: http://www.law.ufl.edu/student-affairs/current-students/academic-policies#11.
Classroom Accommodation. Students requesting classroom accommodation must first register with the Dean of Students Office. The Dean of Students Office will provide documentation to the student who must then provide this documentation to the professor when requesting accommodation. Students are strongly encouraged to communicate with their professor and with the College of Law's office of student affairs to ensure that they receive proper accommodation.
Are you in distress? If you are having real-life problems that are affecting your general well-being or your studies, please let someone know. You are most welcome to come to me, but the Office of Student Affairs and the University Counseling and Wellness Center and UMatterWeCare are also good places to start.

Support your Favorite Local Business During Small Business Saturday!
The Haywood County Chamber of Commerce would like to encourage local shoppers to think locally during the third annual Small Business Saturday on November 24, 2012. Small Business Saturday is a day for dedicating a portion of holiday shopping to local, independently-owned small businesses.
Small business advocate groups, public and private organizations, and elected officials joined American Express, the founding sponsor of Small Business Saturday, to launch the national program in 2010 in response to small business owners' most pressing need: more demand for their products and services. The second event will build on last year's inaugural program that drove millions of dollars to main street merchants.
The Chamber recognizes the importance of small businesses in Haywood County, the jobs they create and the culture they instill in local communities. Small Businesses created 65% of the net new jobs created in the 17 year period ending in 2009, according to the US Small Business Administration.
Social media will play a central role in helping raise awareness about the importance of supporting small business and recognizing Small Business Saturday. The Small Business Saturday Coalition will be driving consumers and business owners to www.facebook.com/smallbusinesssaturday where they can participate in many ways, including:
- Small business owners can go to Facebook.com/smallbusinesssaturday to download online promotional materials that will help them drive sales to their business on Small Business Saturday.
- Everyone can spread the word about the day and their favorite businesses by giving a shout-out to their favorite local shops and restaurants via Facebook and Twitter.
The Greater Haywood County Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary, non-profit organization with approximately 500 businesses in the area. The mission of the Chamber is to create and sustain a successful business environment. The Chamber does not endorse any candidate for political office. Please visit www.haywood-nc.com for additional information.

It is a lost hiker classic. She did tell someone she was going, but no specifics and no "drop dead" contact time. Her roommate waited a couple days. The cell phone comment is interesting, as though that is a reliable option. I would guess the west side of Hood has pretty good reception, but still.
"Owen, an adventurous spirit and experienced hiker, emailed a friend on Sunday, saying she was going to hike around Mount Hood. She said she would return by Monday night. When she didn't turn up, her friends figured she had decided to stay longer.
I'm glad she is alive!
"We thought that maybe she had found more hiking spots," said Izzy Freeman, a roommate.
But by Wednesday friends grew worried. Freeman called Owen's family who notified police. Deputies found Owen's sport-utility vehicle in the Timberline Lodge parking lot on Thursday with an empty backpack and a laptop inside. After a search on Friday, dozens set off on Saturday morning.
Owen, a senior in interdisciplinary studies at George Fox University, is an experienced hiker who often set out alone. In a five-month stretch in 2010, she hiked the Pacific Coast Trail from Mexico to Canada. She also spent one summer in Papau New Guinea with a missionary group that works with tribes.
Freeman said Owen is responsible. But she didn't have a working cell phone on her and no one knew what trails she was taking."Apr 1, 2013 at 9:04 am #1971655

Pretty interesting television interview, so reading into her comments, her leg was hurt to the extent that she couldn't forage for wood to maintain a fire.Apr 1, 2013 at 9:23 am #1971664

I count a leg injury as my #1 survival scenario. You need enough clothing, shelter, food and water to make it 24 hours on the trail you are supposed to be on , meaning someone knows where you went and that you are overdue in few hours.
I typically use sundown of the day I am due back as a drop dead contact time. That means a night out and part of the next day, but not two or three before SAR knows I'm out there. If I have the right equipment, even another 24 hours should be survivable.
The double stinker scenario would be getting lost and injured. Hopefully I wouldn't me too far off my intended trail and my backup plan would still kick in.
This does all depend on a *trusted* friend or family member. My wife is my contact and I don't have that much life insurance ;)
I don't blame her roommate in this case as the hiker didn't nail down the times and places. As ususal, they determined which trail she was on by finding her vehicle at the trailhead.Apr 1, 2013 at 10:23 am #1971676

They said she was near the summit. (bottom of Hogsback? ~9000?) Became disoriented and was descending when she hurt her leg. They found her by Sandy glacier which it opposite of the way bak to her car. (went north instead of south) Then dropped down to 4600ft where they found her.
It seems like she was probably trying to get to Illumination rock or something.
She is lucky since no one knew her destination. There arent 'trails' this high up (esp in snow) and Timberline Lodge is a trailhead for tons of trails.
"Somewhere up on the mountain" is a scary place to be lost.
She did good on the back end (surviving) but her 'planning' nearly cost her. On the news they said she filled out a Climber Registry … but nobody could find it. hmmmmm sounds like she skipped that part.
Lucky girl- I bet she registers from now on.Apr 1, 2013 at 10:35 am #1971680

She said she'de do better at leaving itenerary so people would know better when and where to look for her
South side Mt Hood climbers often go directly downhill, into Zigzag canyon and trouble, you have to angle South towards Timberline LodgeApr 1, 2013 at 10:54 am #1971687

I heard she was found near Sandy glacier- thats over Yocum Ridge and down. wrong direction all together. Sounds like that snowboarder from the east coast that got lost a year or two back. he descended into one of the canyon areas and became lost.
Simple compass would have helped.
Not trying to be an ass, I'm just trying to learn from other's mistakes. Note to self: In a whiteout, pull out the compass sooner than later.Apr 1, 2013 at 11:30 am #1971697

I'm glad she was found alive and in relatively good condition. I'd love to know exactly what she had with her, because although she's being bashed (on the Oregonian) for being unprepared it seems to me she must have had some basic survival gear.
I've been in a far less dramatic but similar situation when I was 24 and on one of my first backpacking trips. It was a gorgeous sunny day in July, 4000', 70 degrees that turned into heavy fog, rain, and snow. My partner and I became disoriented. We had not brought along navigation gear because we would be overlooking a populated area the entire time and there were excellent landmarks where we were going. We didn't count on visibility dropping to 5'. We ended up on a completely different mountain, spent the night (my gear was soaked and I got hypothermia overnight) and we hiked out when visibility improved the next day. I made as many mistakes or more as this girl did. The primary difference is I wasn't injured and I had a partner. She'll learn from this experience and doubt she'll ever make that mistake again. Her story may also be a good lesson for other people. It was after a whole party went missing on Mt. Hood a few years ago that I began carrying a PLB.Apr 1, 2013 at 12:03 pm #1971714

I try to convey to my math students the difference dependent and independent variables.
Independent: drawing cards, flipping a fair coin, or the gender of each subsequent child not born in China.
Dependent: hair length and gender; educational level and wealth, skin color and continent.
I'll add "getting lost" and "getting injured" to the later list.
I've gotten injured on maybe 0.06% of my hikes. And I get seriously off trail (in an unplanned way) maybe 2% of the time. But, man!, is there a strong correlation between the two.Apr 4, 2013 at 6:29 am #1972706

Diana+ 20mm Fisheye Lens + Nikon SLR Mount Adaptor: The Creative Barrel Lens For Still Life And Landscapes2012-08-09 2 11 Share Tweet
When used with a film SLR, this toy lens will offer the still life or landscape photographer another creative photo option. Read on to learn why.
The idea of being able to use the Diana lenses on my Nikon SLR cameras was an interesting one.
Having read about the SLR mount adaptor for the Diana lenses, I become intrigued. Why? I have a couple of Nikon SLR film cameras and I wanted to obtain the trademark effects of the Diana F+ lenses with my Nikon F Series SLR cameras.
However, while the idea was a novel one, the comments and reviews by users were mixed. This was mostly due to the particular lens used. For example, a Diana F+ 38mm lens will become a 72 mm lens on an SLR.
Yet, I didn't want to know the effects of the 'longer' lenses; from 38mm and above. I wanted to know how the Diana 20mm Fisheye lens will handle the photo opportunities that I will be throwing at it.
And one day, my wish was granted (all thanks to a particular friend, whom I will call 'O'). I was given the opportunity to try out the Fisheye lens with a Diana Lens Adaptor for Nikon SLR.
First thing to note if you are using this lens, it will no longer be a 20mm Fisheye lens. It will become a 40mm lens. So, you are not going to get the Fisheye effect as you would on a Diana F+ camera.
Second, when used with an automatic SLR, such as the Nikon F601, you will have to switch it to manual mode in order to use it. According to the product description, 'each fisheye image shows massive depth of field, so your subject and background will be nice and crispy clear.' This means that you would probably be shooting it at a fixed aperture of F11. You can only adjust the shutter speed.
Knowing that the Fisheye lens is a light lover, I went shooting at high noon. For the purpose of my little experiment, I used the Lomography X-Pro Chrome 100 slide film. Surprisingly, the fastest shutter speed that I shot at was 1/125. Most photos were snapped at 1/60. Thus, a tripod may be the order of the day if you are going to use this lens set up.
Reviewing my first roll, I started to notice some peculiarities.
1. It has a 'barrel' effect.
2. It can create some dramatic shots.
3. Grain is evident even when using an ISO 100 slide film. But the nice thing is that this lens can still produce the saturated effect that the Diana lenses are known for.
My review of this lens set up is based on what I would normally shoot in a city. Having shot a couple of rolls, my conclusion is that this lens when used with an SLR camera is probably best suited for creative landscapes, cityscapes and still life photography.
See the rest of the album here.
Achieve breathtaking Diana F+ effects with your Nikon F Series SLR camera with the Diana F+ Lens Adaptor – Nikon Mount! Just attach the SLR adaptor to your Nikon F mount, and you're ready to use any of the Diana F+ lenses! Get your own Diana F+ Nikon Adaptor now!
With the Diana+ 20mm Fisheye Lens, you can have a circular image on a square print. Get 180-degree images with the signature dreamy and soft-focused qualities of the iconic Diana camera using the Diana+ 20mm Fisheye Lens. Available in our Shop.

- Calcium—naturally helps balance acid levels in the body; prevents it from removing calcium from the bones' which promotes a more alkaline environment.
- Magnesium—helps your body absorb calcium and supplies energy to your cells.
- Sodium bicarbonate—works to reduce the level of acid in your body by neutralizing it.
- Potassium bicarbonate—used in medications and formulas as an antacid' which alleviates stomach discomfort.
You may have heard of the phrase "pH balance'" but do you know what it means to your health? The pH scale is used to test how acidic your body: a score of 0 means that a substance is very acidic' and the top score of 14 means that it's very base. In humans' the pH balance is defined as the balance between acids and alkaline in the body. While it's okay for the stomach to have a strong acidic reading' the rest of the body should have a fairly low one. Too much of one or not enough of the other can cause your pH to get thrown out of balance' causing a number of diseases and ailments.
Since it isn't always easy to tell what your pH balance should be' you should look for signs of an imbalance such as fatigue' digestive disturbances' frequent colds and changes in your skin or hair.
Marco Pharma's Nema Base Acid/Alkaline is a supplement that works to balance the acid/alkaline environment and promote a healthy pH balance by reducing acids in the body.
The active ingredients in Nema Base include:
The recommended dose of Nema Base Acid/Alkaline by Marco Pharma for adults is two to four tablets' two to three times daily; if you're treating an acute stage imbalance' take eight to 10 tablets three times per day for up to six days. If you don't like swallowing pills' no need to—you can crush these tablets and mix them into liquid for easier swallowing! Don't take supplement if you have impaired kidney functioning.

Great Product!
Nema base mineral by Marco Pharma has been great in dealing with my digestive acidity!
Gives almost immediate relief to acid indigestion and related problems.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.
By Susan Toews

Good reliable product.
My doctor suggested I get Nema Base by Marco Pharma. I use these to bring up my pH and to help with too much stomach acid. They work quickly for both things. I have never had to take the suggested serving size (10 tablets). I usually do 2 or 3. They dissolve quickly in my mouth or if you have troubling swallowing tablets you can just let them sit for a few seconds in your mouth with some water and then swallow all liquid.
Works quickly, easy to take.

I have severe reflux and Nema Base by Marco Pharma stops it within just a few minutes. It is the only product I have found that helps. It works best if you just chew it up and then swallow it, followed with some water.
It works and fast!

Easy to use and effective
I use these to quickly correct my pH when I am too acid. Easy to take along when I travel and work quickly. My doctor recommended these for me.
Easy to take and work quickly
Wish they cost less! Not super expensive but I would like it if they cost less :-)

General Comments orValuable Insight
Focus should be on individual instruments.
Wednesday we liked EWW (Mexico), which
just had a day and a half 4+% rally.
EWZ (Brazil) benefited from the bear trap in Oil led by PBR which rallied 5% in short order.
LNG is up 15% since the last time we spoke about on the 11/7/13.
We're going to ride the ride until they turn off the power in the amusement park.
The individual names will be much better trades.
If you have a favorite we're more than happy to take a look.
Yesterday we canceled our resting buy orders in the TBT.
First, the ETF's don't always line up with the futures.
Second, I'm risk averse and don't like to have orders out there during possible events such as the Yellen grilling on Capital Hill.
Third, from a technical perspective, I didn't have a high confidence level I was in love with for a buy and hold.
Short Term View…
Keep trading to make money. The opportunity will be in individual names.
Individual stocks look to be an easier read based off their own technical s. The Equity Indices seem stretched at these levels.
Go with the flow. Use the 9/30/13 ( September 30th) closes as your macro pivots. Trade the opening ranges and early time frames.

The state's Ketchikan airport needs work.
State officials are being asked to fund $2.6 million in airport improvements, beginning with a ramp to the seaplane dock that is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The existing ramp is too steep, resulting in injuries that have required the airport to cover medical costs. Changing the direction of the ramp and adding to it would help travelers accessing the airport or catching seaplanes to small towns in the area, particularly when it comes to managing luggage. Reconfiguring the ramp is estimated to cost $200,000.
The seaplane pullout and dock is beyond repair and needs to be replaced. Electrical cables that run through the dock haven't worked in eight years. The pullouts are wrongly positioned, which makes it difficult to pull planes onto the ramp because of water current and wind. Not only that, but the airport needs almost twice the capacity that the three pullouts provide. These airport improvements would cost $750,000.
The airport has other deficiencies that need to be addressed. For example, the Federal Aviation Administration requires the airport to prepare a water rescue plan. Currently, the airport has a 20-year-old boat. Neither it nor its motor are reliable. To correct the deficiency would cost about $46,000.
The airport also could realize additional revenue if utilities were expanded. Some areas of the airport where prospective tenants might rent are without water and sewer altogether. Tenants are unlikely to bear the cost of installing utilities. Also, the airport's fire hall and snow removal storage shed are without sewer lines. To install the utilities is expected to cost around $950,000.
Airport officials also see a need to replace and add pullouts at Murphy's Pullout, a cost ranging between $350,000 and $450,000.
Ketchikan's airport might be the busiest business in the community, with jet service at least half a dozen times per day and seaplanes and other aircraft feeding into it. During the summer, it sees heavy use — with the addition of tourists, work crews for seasonal industries, sports enthusiasts coming to fish and hunt, and locals going on and coming from vacations or welcoming or saying good-bye to relatives and friends.
The airport is integral to Ketchikan's economy. It's an existing state property that needs to be maintained, repaired, upgraded and even expanded for Alaskans and their visitors.
The repairs also create the opportunity for an increase in the airport's revenue from renters.
In the current economic times, opportunity for business shouldn't be denied.

Katie Holmes "Ordered" By Doctors to Stop Carrying Suri?
"Doc Tell Katie: Put Suri Down!" screams a headline from Star, which reports that Katie Holmes' physicians are imploring her to stop lifting her daughter.
The mag, which recently ran a bogus cover story claiming Holmes was sleeping with Tom Cruise again, now reports, "Doctors have warned Katie that she'll do real harm to her back if she keeps carrying around her nearly 7-year-old daughter." "After wrenching her back last July in a minor car accident, she's been ordered to avoid heavy lifting, but Mama Katie just can't say no to her little girl," writes Star. The tab then quotes a supposed "source" as saying, "It's not healthy when parents carry around a second grader." It's also not healthy when magazines repeatedly publish inaccurate stories about a child.
One of the main reasons Holmes still carries Suri is to hide her daughter's face from bystanders and paparazzi who are constantly snapping photos of her. Check out the PHOTO (above right), and notice how the woman is pointing her camera at the child.
Anyway, regardless of why Holmes picks up her daughter, this story is still totally false. The "Dead Accounts" actress wasn't even injured when her car was sideswiped last summer, and a source close to Holmes tells Gossip Cop it's "not true" that doctors have ordered her to stop lifting Suri.

i was hoping he was going to be our 4th rd pick, I was shocked when we picked Nassib. As far as WLB I think we are ok with Paysinger and Jacquain. It was the middle we had the glaring hole..It looked decent with Connor, but once he got hurt you can clearly see Herzlich is not a starting caliber NFL middle linebacker. Here's what I would do moving forward..
1. re-sign Beason to a 2 or 3 yr deal ( if he makes it thru this season injury free)
2. Draft a young MLB to learn under Beason for a few years
3. Cutt Herz..great story but not a very good football player anymore

Chili - I was honored to be one of the judges again this year, and the chili was fantastic (as always). I was deeply saddened to learn of Curtis Berger's death and offer his family and friends my deepest condolences.
But Curtis and his team at Chugalug University really do know how to make superb chili.

Do you agree that plural marriage should be included in discussing marriage equality? Yes, or no, please.<quoted text>
I agree that some people succeed in knitting together loving, functional families comprised of more than two individual adults committed to one another.
There is no reason a polygamist consensus must be built first before plural marriage equality should be considered. Does everyone in the gay community support same sex marriage?Excellent. You do realize that there are structural issues to be resolved. So get to work and resolve them. Then build consensus among polygamists, and make your case to the rest of the country.
Yet you've excepted rules made by others for opposite sex couples, and adopted them for your own.Some people seem to think that society should make up the rules that govern polygamy. I can't even imagine why polygamists would want someone like me to make up the rules for them.
There's no reason the existing laws cannot be adapted to accommodate plural marriage. If the can be altered to accommodate same sex couples, they can be altered to accommodate plural marriage. Fair is fair.As you know, many people aren't very good at writing down their wishes. So we need to lay down some rules that will govern polygamous marriages in the absence of clear agreements among the husbands and wives.

Refrigerator ice maker
Whirlpool ice maker does not make ice,but water backs up and freezes at bottom of freezer.I can see frozen water on a ridge near the ice maker.
Is this one of the in freezer ice makers that just dump into a bucket or is it one of those type that dispenses thru the door?
It's in a bottom freezer that dumps ice into a container.
There are a lot of posts on this forum concerning WhirlPool icemaker issues
see http://www.diychatroom.com/search.php?searchid=3342793
I got no real answer. Just getting this up to top with all other of todays icemaker questions. Link to diagrams etc there apply here. Check to make sure water connection to ice maker is secure and no other leaks. Describe or post pic of that ridge near ice maker.
you need to remove ice maker and thaw out the funnel
Looks like it thawed out on its own.ice maker seems to be working.I believe the hose was clogged.it may have something to do with people not closing the freezer all the way.
" thawed out on its own" HAH! By merely posting your question, you caused the vast cosmic, invisible, forces of the entire DIYchatroom to focus on your icemaker.
" people not closing the freezer all the way." Open door could cause a melting at some point that then refroze in wrong place, like that funnel, that blocked flow. Humidity in outside air could freeze and slowly build up.
If, however you are claiming leaving door ajar caused blockage to melt, I remind you of our powers. Don't mess with our mojo buddy.
Might want to keep an eye on defrost cycle, see that it is keeping build up from forming. If problem recurs try hair dryer in area for kwik fix, then search for cause of blockage or spillage.
Thanks to everyone for their advice.

Are Jennifer Lopez and toyboy Casper Smart on the rocks?
Jennifer Lopez
PeopleJob1_1, PeopleJob9_1
Despite an 18-year age gap, Jennifer Lopez and her dancer boyfriend Casper Smart appeared to be incredibly loved up at the diva's 43rd birthday party a fortnight ago.
But new reports suggest that all may not be well between the two, with rumours swirling that J.Lo is considering dumping her 25-year-old toyboy lover.
The pair have been dating since last year, following Jennifer's divorce from the father of her two kids, Marc Anthony.
An insider source revealed to People magazine: "[Jennifer] is getting frustrated with Casper and she's increasingly short-tempered when she's around him."
"He's moved into her life - and a little too easily, too. I think her family is watching him closely."
The back-up dancer recently threw Jennifer a lavish surprise birthday party aboard a super yacht, but the previous day he was controversially photographed outside a 24-hour adult peepshow in New York.
Casper's X-rated visit was said to have angered the Latino singer and several tabloids alleged that J-Lo felt "betrayed" at his indiscretion.
Jennifer's lawyer branded these reports "false, malicious and defamatory", but the scandal seems to have taken its toll on the couple.
Although things are less than rosy between the two, the source believes that the Dance Again singer will stay with her toyboy for the time being, adding: "Jennifer is the kind of girl who doesn't like to be alone.
"Until she finds a replacement, I think, he's around."
Currently Casper is accompanying Jennifer on her North American tour with Enrique Iglesias, serving as her principle choreographer during the mammoth 20-city tour.

Earlier in the month, developer corwin75 came through with his Param EDIT application. Earlier this week, corwin has released an update to his app, to entertain the masses who like to play with their saves.
In case you don't know or haven't read the article, Param EDIT allows you to take the saves of any game and mess with it in most ways imaginable. You can change the name of the save, the protection, make it usable on other PS3s among other things. There's no favoritism either as the app is available for all 3 OS platforms.
corwin75 didn't post a changelog this time around so it's unclear what's changed from the initial release. Nonetheless, it's still a great app all around. If you haven't downloaded the new version already, you can grab it from below.

The typical asking rate per listing is in the $0's per square foot per year. The Rainier Valley region is seeing a decrease in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate fell $21 per sqft per year. That's a 100% decrease in rent.
In the last 90 days, 0 listings have been made available, which means office spaces most likley are leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to tour spaces as quick as possible. About NaN% of the available space in the Rainier Valley are subleases, so you will probably need to sign a longer term lease with the landlord directly. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet available, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around sqft. Most properties in this area are approximately 3 floors. Most buildings in this area were built in 2004 and are Class A.
Not much of the real estate is used for commercial space, so it might be hard to find office space. Waste services is the dominant industry in this region. Most of the occupants of Rainier Valley work from home. Commuting between 30 and 45 minutes a day is the norm for those who opt to reside in this part of town.
