Stormwater Management
Stormwater Utility
Stormwater Program Manager: Dale Jayne
Phone: 865-273-3500
For questions or concerns regarding stormwater, click here to email our office.
The City of Maryville implemented a Stormwater Utility through City Council approval in 2005. The utility is a result of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Storm Water Phase II program. EPA requires cities throughout the U.S., including Maryville, to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater permit because stormwater is considered a source of pollution in rivers and streams.
The major stormwater problems that Maryville faces is a drainage system permeated with old pipes, periodic flooding caused by heavy rains, erosion along Pistol Creek, and contaminants flowing into Little River, our drinking water source.

Long-range bizjets
Choices are many and prices are high—and with ranges that cover the planet, body clocks take time to recover.
By Mike Venables
Contributing Writer
Dassault Falcon 7X is an example of the growing category of bizjets with 5000-nm-plus range. Flight durations can exceed 12 hrs, causing significant disruption to circadian rhythms.
Scaled Composites' GlobalFlyer was a very long-range aircraft indeed with its distance record of 22,390 nm. The record was claimed in 2006 following a flight that started at Kennedy Space Center in Florida and ended at BOH (Bournemouth, England) after circling the globe and crossing the Atlantic twice.
GlobalFlyer was not designed to be fast—the flight averaged a groundspeed of 291 kts including tailwinds—although the endurance of both the aircraft and the pilot, Steve Fossett, at 76 hrs 45 min, was impressive. However, the payload capacity (other than fuel) was meager and creature comforts were nonexistent. The flight landed with 200 lbs of fuel remaining. Hardly NBAA reserves!
While it is a challenge to create an ultralong-range aircraft, it is an even greater challenge to create a long-range aircraft that will fly a long distance at a reasonable speed with an acceptable payload. A number of long-range business jets are on the market and more are coming.
Establishing an arbitrary minimum range of 5000 nm, a recent survey of business aircraft revealed the qualifiers shown in the table on this page. As can be seen, while the speeds and payloads are acceptable, the durations start at slightly less than 12 hrs and top out at over 16!
Human factors
As difficult as it is to design and build these aircraft, it is far more difficult (read "impossible") to design and create a long-range pilot. Despite the public perception of the steely-eyed jet pilot, we are all subject to fatigue and the influence of our circadian rhythms.
A circadian rhythm is an internally driven cycle, of roughly 24 hrs, in biochemical, physiological or behavioral processes. Circadian rhythms have been widely observed in plants, animals, fungi and some bacteria.
Although circadian rhythms are built-in and self-sustained, they are adjusted to the environment by external cues called zeitgebers (from the German for "time giver" or "synchronizer"), of which the primary one is daylight. Other zeitgebers are temperature, social interactions, exercise and eating/drinking patterns.
According to Bombardier Chief Pilot (Widebody Aircraft) Yann Lemason, his demo flight department policy requires a 3rd pilot if the duty day exceeds 16 hrs (about a 12-hr flight).
Let's assume that such a flight stayed in the same time zone (say from Atlantic Canada to Chile).
If we refer to the figure on this page, we can see that secretion of melatonin (the sleep-inducing compound) stops at 7:30 am, making an 8:30 am departure reasonable. This results in an arrival at 8:30 pm—also reasonable. The problem is that, if the flight extends beyond 9:00 pm, melatonin secretion starts again.
The crew will be starting the approach as their bodies are getting ready for sleep. Hence the logic to adding the 3rd pilot on longer flights. The pilots can take a rest in rotation so that at least 2 of the 3 pilots are rested—or should be—for the final phase of the flight.
Unfortunately, most flights do not stay in a single time zone, nor do they leave at 8:30 am for an evening arrival (a daytime flight). An 8:00 pm departure from New York results in an 11:00 pm arrival in Taipei, Taiwan (15 hrs at Mach 0.85). Maintaining crew alertness throughout the very long night flight means minimizing the impact of the normal circadian rhythm.
Crew self-help actions
Pilots can do some things to help themselves when it comes to minimizing the effects of these rapid time zone crossings. These include eating lightly and keeping hydrated throughout the flight. On shorter flights, catnaps of 20–40 min—a "NASA snooze"—can revitalize a fatigued brain. Getting out of the cockpit for a walk helps to reinvigorate blood circulation, key to restoring clear thinking—one of the zeitgebers.
Yann reports that Bombardier Demo Flight Ops also has a policy of running continuous system reviews and examining "what if?" scenarios to keep the pilots engaged and alert. Electronic flight bags—both Class 2 types and iPads—provide easy access to documentation for these reviews. Prior to flight, a variety of software tools are also available to aid scheduling to reduce fatigue.
Crew rest area
As most, if not all, of these long-range aircraft have custom interiors, owners can contribute significantly to reduction of fatigue effects by adding a crew rest compartment. It must be isolated from the rest of the cabin so that the resting crewmember can sleep soundly.
This means that it must be soundproof or remote from high-activity areas. It should allow the occupant to eliminate light (100% effective windowshades and no cracks around the door) and to control the temperature independently of the rest of the aircraft, as cooler temperatures are required for deep sleep—another zeitgeber. Needless to say, it must have a lie-flat bed.
While an appropriate crew rest area takes away from space that would otherwise be available to the owner and his/her fellow passengers, these features create an environment that leads to a more refreshed crew and should therefore be seen as safety features.
As mentioned above, good hydration is vital. Therefore, a lavatory that the crew can access without disturbing the passengers is also a godsend as it allows free access at any time, regardless of what the passengers are doing.
Placing the flight attendant station and galley close to the flightdeck further enhances fatigue-busting interaction.
Cockpit design features
Aircraft manufacturers themselves play the biggest part in creating an environment that battles fatigue. To start with, the flightdeck should be roomy and easy to enter and exit, since cramped quarters stimulate the release of body chemicals that only exacerbate fatigue. Yann notes that careful design can assist by creating the illusion of even more room.
To the greatest extent possible the flightdeck should be isolated from noise and vibration, since even the most comfortable headset becomes a source of irritation on very long flights. There should be good circulation to keep the air fresh without drafts and hot or cold spots.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have tried treasure hunt online, and public records, and insurance companies. I have failed in each attempt; also i do know my mother did have a law settlement settled before she past away.
That's always a tricky question. You could do an asset search, but it wouldn't turn up bank accounts. A look at prior tax returns can also be helpful (if they are available). Sometimes interest reported on the tax return will help identify an account. The best way to find out is to open the estate, then send letters of administration to the various institutions that she may have had accounts with, asking them to return an itemized listing of the accounts. The risk, though, is that she didn't have anything, in which case you will have gone through the probate process for nothing. It's a fishing expedition. You need to decide whether it's worth the risk.
Don't take anything written here as legal advice.I am happy to offer my thoughts free of charge, and I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you about representing you. Please be aware, though, that at this point we have not established an attorney-client relationship. An attorney client relationship requires me to agree in writing to represent you. Unless that happens, you shouldn't take anything I say to be legal advice or make any decisions based on it.Ask a similar question
I would suggest you try to find her Will, as they may be a devise for you under the Will. Wills become part of the public record once they are filed, so you should check the County clerk where you mother died to see if a Will has been filed. You also may be able to find out the details of any lawsuit from the clerk of Courts and contact the Attorney who represented her.Ask a similar question
My colleagues have provided you with sound advice. In a situation such as this, there are a lot of details missing. Was a probate petition filed? Was there a will? do you have access to your mother's records? These and many more questions need to be explored.
** LEGAL DISCLAIMER ** My response above is not legal advice and it does not establish an attoreny-client relationship. When responding to questions posted on Avvo, I provide a general purpose response based on California law as I am licensed in California. In reviewing my response, you are specifically advised that your use of, or reliance upon any response I provide is not advisable. I do not have all relevant background details or facts related to your issue / matter, thus I am not in a position to give you legal advice. Further, your review, use of, or reliance upon my response does not establish an attorney-client relationship between us nor does it qualify as a legal consultation for any purpose. For specific advice regarding your particular circumstances, you should consult and retain local counsel. Law Offices of Eric J. Gold www.EGoldLaw.com Telephone: 818-279-2737 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com a similar question
no will was left behind and no probate petition was filed, but i do have all her information just no records. I was only 15 at the time and no one else was told about the assets but me.
As the other attorneys have stated, looking for bank or financial account statements or reviewing tax returns is a good place to start. If your mother had a Will, the Will may list accounts or locations to look for valuables (the money in my safety deposit box at xyz bank). You can contact a local attorney as many have resources that are able to uncover hidden assets.
Answer does not constitute legal advice. Please call (727) 471-0039 or contact me at email@example.com, if you would like to discuss your Florida legal matter further. This answer is provided for informational and/or educational purposes only, does not constitute legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship. Adam is a Florida Attorney practicing in areas of Estate Planning, Elder Law, Trusts, Probate, Guardianship, and Business Law. Actual legal advice can only be provided after completing a comprehensive consultation in which all of the relevant facts are discussed and reviewed.Ask a similar question
A private investigator may be able to find assets. They charge about $500, and the ability to find accounts falls off quickly after the person dies: sometimes it it compromised within 60 days.
This is off-the-cuff advice and does not establish a client-lawyer privilege. Nothing I say here can be used to suggest the avoidance of taxes/penalties/interest due. I am only licensed to practice in the state of Florida.Ask a similar question

Graftobian – Dark Chocolate Eyeliner
Written by msmakeup1829, Posted in Blog, Product Review, Swatches
Price: $6.99
Where to Buy: http://www.graftobian.com
Pros: Rich color, price, size
Cons: not long wearing and availability
Packaging: This liner is your standard pencil eyeliner. You do have to sharpen it. It is considered professional size and that it are a little longer than your average liner. There are 3 colors available at this time. The eyeliner shown in picture is Dark Chocolate.
Review: I have always heard some youtube guru's talk about Graftobian and I have always just thought that it was a brand that you could only get in Europe. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that I was going to review something from them. I first noticed the size of the liner, it as longer than your average size. The color is rich red tones brown. Those are hard to find, at least for me. It glides on so easy and stays true to color all day. The texture is creamy which is great for a Smokey eye or even using this as an eye shadow base. The pencil is super blendable which is a perfect consistency for Smoked out liner, or even bases. I would recommend if you are use it as a eye liner that you set the line with some powder to prevent for sliding or fading. I would not recommend for use in the water liner unless you are using for editorial shots and it will not be on the face long. The other draw back is that you can only buy this product online, which can be a bit challenging because what happens if you want more or you need it right away? It is not easily accessible to a wide range of people.
Overall: I love this product for the color and the price. I feel this color is really unique and I have not been able to find anything like this. The price is reasonable but the thing that gets me is that you have to by it on line. Some retailer needs to carry this band. Their brand is very " Makeup Artist" friendly and that is whom the site is built for. So, take a look around the side and make a purchase worth your wild. If you do that than I suggest you pick up one of these pencils.

Bright Sparklers and Indigenous astronomy
I had this note from Hugh Cairns earlier this month, about the book, Dark Sparklers, which he and Bill Harney wrote.
You may like to know that our book's presentation of Bill Harney's night sky took major new form last week in the Planetarium of the University of Boulder, Colorado, and it is quite clear (from our experience there) that a planetarium is where - at last! - the world of people such as Bill can be properly represented on its many levels. We are hoping this presentation can be put on in Melbourne and Launceston within the year, and you may like to start moving people in the Top End to develop a planetarium (at least, I don't think you have one, do you?) not least because this new milieu can start giving a true picture of at least one Aboriginal spiritual-intellectual cosmos ... as well as the scientific world. For some years I have been hoping to take a mobile planetarium into Wardaman (and therefore other) Aboriginal communities, and I think the time to do this is getting nearer (and Bill of course is one person who could really do this). Do you already have educationalists (or others) taking mobile planetaria into the communities for scientific teaching? I know this sort of work is beginning to be done in Sydney, and a Aboriginal world and cosmoscape could, if this is being done, be added into what is already happening.
You can now visit the Dark Sparklers website, at www.darksparklers.com.
I also received this message:
I read with interest on your website about "Australia's only indigenous astronomy show" recently. However, I would need to point out that this claim is in error because the Adelaide Planetarium has been running shows that deal with the night skies of Aboriginal Australia since 1997. I just thought this would be of interest to you.
I have e-mailed them back apologising for the mistake. MM

I would like to draw your attention to a recent addition to our dossier on indigenous knowledge on the Science and Development Network website (http://www.scidev.net). If you could share this information with colleagues that would be appreciated.
Spotlight on the regulation and protection of traditional medicine (http://www.scidev.net/tm). Traditional medicine is growing in popularity, making it urgent to address topics such as a lack of international standards, concerns over the quality of the medicines and the threat that the excessive use of medicinal plants can pose to biodiversity. This spotlight highlights key issues in traditional medicine, with two new policy briefs discussing global standards and legislation as well as the protection of indigenous medical knowledge in South Africa. The dossier includes news and opinion articles, background reading material and links to relevant sites.

By Sgt. 1st Class Phillip Eugene, 80th Training Command Public AffairsMarch 20, 2014
Maj. Woodrow Anderson did not expect to graduate with honors from the Army Safety and Composite Risk Management Course he attended at Fort Knox, Ky., but he plans on using his new-found knowledge to implement new measures that will improve his unit's safety program.
Anderson said the course gave him a better understanding of a safety officer's duties and responsibilities, and he plans on taking a more critical look at the unit's safety program before suggesting some procedural and personnel changes.
"The takeaway is that there's a lot we have to do at the unit," said Anderson, executive officer 6th Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 94th Training Division.
Anderson was one of 49 Reserve Soldiers who attended the course, which the 80th Training Command (TASS) hosted in conjunction with the U. S. Army Combat Readiness/Safety Center March 17-21, 2014.
The 80th is the only Army Reserve command currently hosting the course, which is designed to help units comply with the Department of the Army Safety and Occupational Health Objectives for fiscal year 2014.
While it's intended for junior leaders, Virgilio A. Munoz, 80th TC Safety and Occupational Health Specialist, says the class helps to enhance the skills of individuals who work as safety officers in an additional duty capacity.
"They're my eyes and ears at the units," Munoz said, referring to the Additional Duty Safety Officers who take an online course to get certified.
Master Sgt. Chuck Underwood, one of two instructors from the Army safety center who taught the course, said the curriculum familiarizes students with safety regulations and they leave knowing which manuals to reference for solutions to safety issues.
"It's impossible to memorize everything, so it's important to be able to know where to find the information you need," Underwood said.
On day two of the class, Command Sgt. Maj. James Wills, the command senior enlisted leader, told the students that it was up to them to sell their unit leaders on the benefits of an effective safety program.
"Don't let this course material sit on the back seat of your car," Wills said. "Make sure that your command teams understand that what you learned here needs to be incorporated into your unit training."
Underwood said unit leaders at all levels should attend the course, even if they're not appointed safety officers.
"This knowledge creates a second line of defense for the commander and the safety officer," he said. "Commanders, first sergeants, platoon sergeants, and platoon leaders need to come through, because this is a combat multiplier. By regulation safety needs to be incorporated into every aspect of training."
On the last day, Munoz told the students that changing the culture at their units might be their biggest challenge.
"There are people who will resist change," said Munoz, who also told the students that it was import to keep up with the constantly changing safety polices and procedures.
"You have the basic knowledge; you have to support your unit and your commander," he said. "At the end of the day you're protecting Soldiers, equipment and facility."
Anderson said, Soldiers who attend the course could walk away with knowledge that could make an impact on unit operations.

Tila Tequila: Chanel, Yes!
Tila Tequila has a lot to celebrate these days.
A winning smile. A booming literary career. And, of course, an active social life.
So it's no wonder that the 27-year-old MySpace goddess/reality TV veteran/gay rights advocate, born Thien Thanh Thi Nguyen, treated herself to a shopping excursion on Los Angeles' retail mecca Robertson Boulevard yesterday.
From the looks of the bag in her hand, it appears that the Chanel store was one of her stops.
And from the looks of the blond mystery man at her side as she ambled down the street, Tila might have yet another reason to celebrate. Has the A Shot at Love star hit the target a new companion?

Girl, you'll be a superstar soon
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
Country heart: Singer-songwriter Catherine Britt.
Elton John tracked Catherine Britt down to record a duet. Not bad for a 19-year-old from Newcastle, writes Christine Sams.
Sitting inside Caesar's Palace Colosseum in Las Vegas two Fridays ago, Catherine Britt was mesmerised by the onstage performance from Elton John and still pinching herself because the legendary singer had personally invited her and her mum Anne to the show.
During the performance, Sir Elton began playing the introduction to his song Tiny Dancer, dedicating it to a new-found friend from Australia and telling the audience she would one day be a "superstar".
"As soon as he said Australia I put my hands over my mouth and tears just starting pouring down my face it was so emotional," said Britt. "I had no idea he would do it, it blew my mind, it was so cool."
Britt's name first came to the attention of Australians when she was linked to Sir Elton. The 19-year-old, who grew up in the Newcastle suburb of Kahibah, was already well known in Tamworth, where her talents had been flagged among some of country music's hottest new artists. But after some of her early recordings were handed to Sir Elton during a visit to Australia, the British superstar showed a genuine interest in her career. Sir Elton is famed for encouraging younger performers all over the world, but this time it wasn't just rhetoric. The pair met in the US earlier this year to record the duet Where We Both Say Goodbye, which will be released among fresh tracks on Britt's new album, due out early next year (and yet to be titled).
It's not hard to guess that meeting with Sir Elton in a US studio to record a song with him was the greatest moment in Britt's career so far. But she describes it as absolutely nerve-racking.
"Could you ever feel comfortable around Elton John, I don't know," said Britt, speaking over the phone from Nashville, where she is now based permanently. "I mean, he makes you feel comfortable and he makes you feel like you should be there with him, but even just looking at him freaks me out. He's so animated, he's so amazing and talented. Just being in the same room I want to get down on my knees [in worship]," she said.
As for recording the duet itself, Britt said she was thrilled with the final result, but was almost overcome by the enormity of the occasion.
"Don't take this the wrong way, but it was awful," said Britt, with a laugh. "It was so nerve-racking. We were singing to each other, he was looking in my eyes and smiling and it killed me. I think you can hear it in the track, the emotion that was going on and how hard it was to stand in a room and sing with Elton John.
"It was quite scary," she said. "But we really had a lot of fun."
Despite the fact Catherine Britt is yet to become a household name in Australia, it looks as though Sir Elton's predictions about her future success are starting to come true. Her first single, The Upside Of Being Down, was the most added song on American radio last week, with at least 22 stations selecting her new tune for regular airplay. The track was also being tipped for a top 10 spot on the Billboard country music charts.
The early chart placement (and radio interest) places Britt among the big league of country performers, but she is still prepared to do the hard yards when it comes to performing her music in front of American audiences: "People who live here don't get to see as much of this country as I've already seen," she said. "And I'm looking forward to getting back on the tour bus."
As for her new-found home in Nashville, Britt admitted it's already had an impact on her voice. "Occasionally I say 'y'all' and I don't even mean to," she said, giggling. "But I really love Nashville, it's like Tamworth 24/7."
Despite her burgeoning profile in the US, Britt has no interest in pursuing a crossover career into the mainstream charts she simply loves country music.
"I don't have passion for any other type of music," she said. "I can't imagine doing anything else.
"In some ways, I want to make traditional country music 'cool'," she said. "In high school I was never cool, but I didn't care because I loved it."
She also has no problem writing heartfelt lyrics about heartbreak and loneliness, often the trademark of the genre. "I only get in the mood to write songs when I'm down, when I'm depressed or missing home. When I'm happy, I don't want to be sitting at home songwriting, I want to be out. I don't think I've ever written a happy song," she said, with a laugh. "It's funny like that."
Britt is likely to return to Australia at the end of the year to spend Christmas with her family, and she's already slated to perform at the Tamworth Country Music Festival next year. But she will return to the US to capitalise on her early success in the world's toughest country music market.

Manchester City have released former teenage prodigy Michael Johnson.
Johnson was compared to Blues legend Colin Bell when he broke into the side as an 18-year-old in 2006.
But his career has gone off the tracks in recent seasons and City have cut short his Etihad career six months before his contract was due to expire.
'Wouldn't swap him for Steven Gerrard'
The Press Association reports that Manchester City have confirmed Johnson was released before Christmas.
The 24-year-old, once tipped as a future England international, had become a long-forgotten man at the Etihad Stadium after his progress was hampered by a succession of injuries.
According to the Guardian newspaper Sven Goran Eriksson once said he wouldn't swap Johnson for Steven Gerrard. But reputedly Johnson's fondness for nights out formed part of a wider attitude that disappointed subsequent managers Mark Hughes and Roberto Mancini.
The club has not revealed how much Johnson was on per week - or the size of any severance deal - but various online reports pitch his wages between £25,000 and £40,000 per week at the end.
The PA report continues: Johnson had not played for the club since October 2009 and a loan spell at Leicester last season was cut short.
With the player understood to be short of fitness, City reached an agreement over the remainder of his contract, which was due to expire at the end of the current campaign.
Johnson, a former Everton youth team player, broke into the City first team at the age of 18 in 2006.
Such were his performances that he was once linked with a big-money move to Liverpool but injuries, including a ruptured cruciate ligament, prevented him building on the promising start to his career.
His last appearance for City was as a second-half substitute in a Carling Cup tie against Scunthorpe in October 2009.
After falling way down the pecking order, he joined Leicester on a season-long deal in 2011 but he made only three Championship starts before the move was terminated.
Drink-driving ban
He was twice arrested for drink-driving last year, leading to a three-year driving ban and fines totalling £5,500, and in recent times there were rumours he lacked the dedication required of a top-flight footballer.
City did not publicise news of Johnson's release but have confirmed to Press Association Sport he left the club early in December.

I was thinking that you put it into graphics mode, say how many columns and rows you want, and the length of the data (so as to not accidentally leave image mode because the data contains the escape sequence for leaving image mode) It would start drawing in a rectangle from cursor location, and leave the cursor in the column after the last. I haven't decided what would happen if you didn't have enough columns (rows would just scroll), or how you'd deal with images that don't fit into character block pixel sizes. So you could implement a fully graphical system inside it, but it would be a lot of work, and you wouldn't have the advantage of any windowing features, and everything would still be cursor-based anyway. Basically the idea is to make it easy to implement features that make sense in a terminal, but make it difficult to do anything outside that scope. So I probably wouldn't have a subwindow, since that instantly provides way too much functionality, also you could output pictures fine simply by decoding the pictures into some "raw" format (preferably something that can be mapped straight to a pixbuf) and outputting them, video could work by just doing the same thing, but moving the cursor back to the original starting point over-and-over. Trying to make a graphical app would be a more of a challenge if you want anything remotely complicated, and you'd end up just using X anyway. I guess the idea is that being able to, for example, display pictures in your otherwise-terminal-based mail app is useful, being able to preview files without opening a new window (useful for people with tiling managers, like me) is useful. But having something that tries to be a window manager, or a proper app, is not useful. By having a layer of indirection, and the performance penalty that holds, trying to maintain terminal context, and making it unidirectional, it essentially forces apps to not abuse the capability, its not feasible to do anything other than just display an image. There are a few other idea I have, but aren't even close to being properly formed yet, however the simple-to-use graphics capabilities described above is something that I think has real merit. I've seen a few similar things in the past, but I don't think they tried to be a terminal emulator in their own right, so I couldn't run vim or screen in them.

Japan saw a large outflow of gold in fiscal 2011, which ended in March, prompting analysts to warn of the country's declining economic power.
Gold exports jumped 61 percent from the previous year to some 135 tons in the year, according to recent trade data from the Finance Ministry. This was apparently because a surge in prices encouraged individuals to sell their gold items.
Japan has continued to log annual net exports of gold since fiscal 2006.
Gold prices in the country hit a 31-year high of ¥4,745 per gram last August, up 5.2-fold from a trough in September 1999, according to precious metals dealer Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo K.K.
Individuals who purchased gold during a gold investment boom in the 1980s sold their holdings to realize profits, market sources said. Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo bought about 15 tons of gold from individuals in August alone, five times as much as its usual monthly purchase.
Reluctance to invest in real assets amid Japan's protracted deflation also pushed investors to unload their gold, the sources said.
Increasing gold outflows from Japan "represent the country's declining economic power," said Itsuo Toshima, former Japanese representative at the World Gold Council.
"Historically, gold has flowed to wealthy countries."
Toshima said gold now seems to be flowing from Japan to China, the United States and Europe. According to the Finance Ministry data, major importers of Japanese gold included Hong Kong and Britain.
In China, people tend to invest their money in gold, instead of depositing it at banks, given that real interest rates, or deposit rates minus inflation, are often negative in the country, where upward pressure on prices remain strong, market observers said.

ENCINO - They never formed a pitchfork-wielding mob, or even raised their gardening trowels in anger.
But users of the Sepulveda Garden Center did express their displeasure in no uncertain terms after the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks threatened to impose a huge fee increase last summer.
For months, the gardeners succeeded in at least delaying the fee hike they said would force some retirees to give up their horticultural hobby.
Now their resistance seems to be wilting.
Recreation and Parks commissioners are expected to vote Wednesday to raise annual fees at the San Fernando Valley's two community gardens from $25 per plot to $120 per plot.
Many green thumbs sound resigned to the increase.
"It's not right, but what can you do?" said Vic Demerdjian, 77, as he tended vegetables and herbs at the Sepulveda Garden Center one morning last week.
The increase would apply to the 807-plot Sepulveda Garden Center in Encino and the 132-plot Orcutt Ranch Community Garden in Canoga Park, both operated by the city.
It's one of several moves officials say are rooted in city cutbacks that have forced the parks department to cover more of its own budget, including $16 million a year in water and electricity costs that used to come out of the city's general fund.
"The city has deep financial problems. We're not exempted from that," said Mike Shull, superintendent of the parks department's planning and development division.
Shull said of the gardeners: "I think we've addressed most of their concerns."
When the Daily News first reported on the issue in November, it appeared the increase would take effect Jan. 1. But gardeners complained - emphasizing the likely impact on cash-strapped seniors, and questioning officials' accounting - and parks commissioners ordered further study.
Staff recommendations posted online Friday said going ahead with the nearly fivefold annual-fee increase will partly offset staff, supply and utility costs calculated at $177 per 10-by-20-foot plot at the Encino gardens and $198 at the Canoga Park facility.
In recent meetings, commissioners talked about helping to create private "scholarships" to help poorer gardeners afford the fees.
Long-term, Shull said, the answer to funding problems might lie in putting all of Los Angeles' 14 community gardens in the hands of private operators.
At the Sepulveda Garden Center on Friday, birds' chirps competed with traffic noise from Highway 101 as a few gardeners worked in the soil.
Demerdjian, a retired Ford production-line supervisor who lives in Encino, said he comes to the garden almost every day to take care of two plots that belong to him and to help with three leased by his 92-year-old uncle.
"I just enjoy it," Demerdjian said, padding around in sandals, jeans and a T-shirt. "I come to my garden early in the morning. I get some fresh air. Nobody bothers me, I don't bother nobody."
He would be able to afford the fee increase, but his uncle would not, Demerdjian said.
Demerdjian, like many gardeners, complains that after years of $20 and $25 fees, the increase is too sharp, and the reasons have been poorly explained.
"It's frustrating, because we've been dealing with this since last November or December, and we still don't have a concrete answer," said Anita Ferry, a Sherman Oaks resident who calls her two garden plots "my Zen place."
Ralph Crane, 81, a Northridge resident who is a former Recreation and Parks personnel director, said he has been a gardener for 30 years at the facility that opened in 1966 on Magnolia Boulevard in Encino.
Crane said he'll pay the $360 a year he would be billed for the maximum-allowed three plots, rationalizing that golf or bowling would cost more.
But he said the fee increase would be "a brutal way of solving the problem," and decried the unpleasant tone of conversation from both parks officials and gardeners at public hearings.
"They've made no provision for people at the poverty level, or for senior citizens," Crane said. "There's people for whom this is going to be a real hardship."
Brian Michaelson, 40, a health care administrator from Lake Balboa who has used the Encino facility for eight years, said losing their plots would impose its own cost for gardeners who grow some of their own food.
If it's voted in by the five-member parks commission, the new fee would go into effect July 1, payable in $60 increments every six months.
The panel also will consider five pages of garden-center rules - including how plots are assigned, a four-foot height limit on fences, and a prohibition on "physical violence" - but has withdrawn a proposal to let gardeners keep their plots for only three years.
Mike Alwyn, 66, a retired security guard who lives in Arleta, said the extra cost would force him to give up his plot after 18 years.
Alwyn said because of the uncertainty, he didn't plant winter crops, and recently took the bolts off the gate to his plot.
"I felt really weird when I was getting my stuff out," said Alwyn, who says gardening has been "therapeutic" for him. "You know how it feels when you're leaving a house, and it's getting all bare? It's a loss.
"A gardener shook my hand, and I said, `Well, I'll be around.' But I don't know."
The Recreation and Parks commissioners' meeting is Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. at the EXPO Center Community Hall Room, 3980 S. Bill Robertson Lane (formerly Menlo Avenue), in Los Angeles. Information: laparks.org.

Wine chemistry research serves as resource for Maryland vintners
As McDaniel's wine chemistry group grows in student researchers and variety of topics, their mentor sees his plan for the group to be a resource to Maryland's winery community coming to fruition. In fact, a recent grant from the Maryland Wineries Association will put students in the lab analyzing wines deemed flawed at the Governor's Cup wine competition this summer.
"It's a perfect combination: our students have the opportunity to be part of fundamental research in wine chemistry as we serve as a resource to what is a growing industry in our area," says McDaniel lab instructor and adjunct lecturer Steve Robertson, who launched the wine chemistry research three summers ago and now mentors five student researchers exploring the finer points of producing a superior vintage.
The genetics of wine yeasts captured Carolina Marques dos Santos Vieira's research attention. A senior Molecular Biology and Biochemistry major, she continued her research comparing nucleotide and protein sequences of enzymes in two different yeasts even when home in Portugal this summer. Wine is part of her family's heritage – her grandfather at one time produced about 2,000 liters or 528 gallons a year. And, she points out, there's a cork tree just off the family's backyard in Ourém, Portugal.
Vieira hopes to work under the grant from the wineries association during this year.
"It means I get to go back into the lab," she says, explaining the excitement that is so obvious in the grin that lights up her face.
She won't be alone in the lab. For junior Rachel Utterback, wine chemistry research offered a way for her to merge her two majors, Biochemistry and French.
"Wine is a big part of French culture," says the junior from Gaithersburg, Md., who looked at some of the different compounds in the wine that come from yeast during fermentation. "By researching wine I am able to relate my majors into one area."
The main reason Matt Peterson is pursuing his education far from his Littleton, Colo., home is the fact that undergraduates conduct research at McDaniel, frequently in collaboration with faculty. And the sophomore Biochemistry major wasted no time finding his way to the lab and his own project in wine chemistry – during the summer after his first year at McDaniel, he studied levels of compounds such as methanol, tartaric acid and acetic acid or vinegar, all of which can result in off-flavor wine.
Two students looked at polyphenols in wine. These compounds are antioxidants and are currently being studied for their potential role in preventing certain degenerative diseases such as cancers and cardiovascular disease.
McDaniel senior Patrick Keefe is investigating the effect of Kosher wine pasteurization on concentrations of polyphenols, while Zach Watkins, a junior Biochemistry major from Cumberland, Md., analyzed polyphenol composition of red and white wines in collaboration with Chemistry professor Rick Smith.

Man of 1801 faces
Page Tools
Campbell McComas, as himself, at his home: "God only made a few perfect heads, The rest He covered with hair".
Picture: Craig Sillitoe
Campbell McComas, a man of myriad characters, is also supremely comfortable in his own skin, writes Liz Porter.
We're using the Christian Dior 004 as a base," says Campbell McComas, studying his reflection in the mirror of his Gold Coast hotel room, as make-up artist Penny Clements applies the final hairs to his new dark tufty eyebrows. With a bit of "shimmer" over the top, he explains, this shade will best approximate the colour of an Italian-born Australian's naturally olive skin when it has recently caught some European summer sun.
It's 5.30pm, just over an hour since McComas began transforming himself into Olympic official (and one-time Northcote High School champion runner) Carlo Corsario - the 1801st character in the former lawyer's almost 30-year career as a serial impersonator. Just back from the Athens Olympics, the Australian Olympic team's deputy chef de mission is visiting the Gold Coast as a speaker for tonight's gala black-tie dinner, hosted by legendary athlete and Gold Coast mayor Ron Clarke.
The next stage in the metamorphosis is elegant black-framed spectacles: one of dozens of pairs McComas keeps in a special carry case. "I do like glasses," he says. "They change the shape of your face and they give me a constant reminder that I'm not me."
And then, of course, the wig. It's a dark glossy one, the sleek hair of a man who takes trouble with his coiffure. McComas is proudly bald. The book-lined study of his Canterbury home displays a sign proclaiming that "God only made a few perfect heads, The rest He covered with hair".
It's just under the photo of him, posing as a Toronto international studies expert, with a beaming World Bank president James Wolfensohn. But most of his characters wear wigs.
Clements' expert make-up also covers shadows under McComas's eyes - the legacy of a succession of 18-hour days over the previous fortnight, beginning with a trip to Hong Kong, where the professional chameleon spoke to the Australian Chamber of Commerce as Gerald Wiley, scriptwriter to The Two Ronnies' Ronnie Barker, and writer on a clutch of other BBC shows, including Mr Bean. (The name is a comedy aficionados' in-joke: Gerald Wiley was Barker's nom de plume, used to ensure that the scripts he sent were taken on their merits.)
After returning from Hong Kong, McComas appeared as a pompous British boffin at the Prime Minister's science dinner. Then he headed to Griffith to play American winemaker Jess Stonestreet Jackson jnr, at a Riverina winemakers' dinner.
A lover of anniversaries and milestones (his CV lists 27 pages of occasions at which he's spoken), McComas has a fondness for Jackson because he is his 1800th character. But if he has a favourite character, it is his first - from a student prank at Monash University in 1976 where he lectured as a visiting British criminal law professor, fooling staff and students.
Penny Clements assists the transformation.
Pictures:Andy Zakeli
At 6pm, McComas farewells the make-up artist. He needs at least an hour alone, to "go inside Carlo's head - or have him in mine".
The comedian remains coy about the process of character creation. Most characters are composed over at least four months, with some engagements booked as far as 12 months ahead. "It's a curious and idiosyncratic process that I don't want to go into," he says.
Exhaustive research is the foundation. Each of the 15 or 20 characters on whom he is working at any time has his own shelf in McComas's Hawthorn office, each piled high with books, tapes and cuttings. At 7.30, Carlo is mingling with the Gold Coast corporates at pre-dinner drinks. Then he sits down for the dinner. It would be easier to stay in his hotel room until he performs. But he likes to "feel the pulse" of the room.
At 9.30, he's at the lectern after Ron Clarke has concluded his spiel about lighting the Olympic cauldron in 1956 and signing an autograph for Carlo, then aged six.
It goes without saying that McComas's brief includes making the 450 guests laugh. But it also covers issues such as "motivation" and "bonding" in a group with little in common beyond living on the Gold Coast and being in business.
This lack of a specific communal identity makes this audience more difficult to reach than the groups of professionals for whom McComas might appear as a guest expert. There is no specialist jargon for him to learn, no common heroes or villains to pretend to know, no group rituals to mock or in jokes to crack.
But he wins them over, sharing insider gossip about Athens, and suggesting that the Coast should be putting in its own bid for 2016.
Straight after dessert, McComas retreats to his room where it takes him hours to wind down. It's an exhausting living, but well enough paid, with fees ranging from $5000 to $15000, depending on the job's complexity and the client's ability to pay for material that (unlike that of other professional speakers) will never be recycled.
So why does Campbell McComas want to spend so much time being someone else?
The answer, he suggests, is a lot simpler than many might think. "It's not coming from a tormented place," he says, "it's just clownishness. I'm the class clown who says he never grew up - although I think I have."
He relishes the moment of "unmasking", whipping off his wig and glasses, letting the audience know they've been fooled and soaking up the applause as himself.
He also enjoys the point, often about three-quarters of the way through, when he notices that a few of the more acute members of the audience have latched on to the joke and are observing others to see if they've caught on.
BORN May 2, 1952 in Melbourne.
EDUCATION Scotch College; Bachelor of Arts with honours (1977) and Bachelor of Law (1978), Monash University; Doctor of Letters, University of New South Wales.
CAREER Director Campbell McComas & Co Pty Ltd since 1980; director The GoodfaBusiness Theatre since 1985.
AWARDS Officer of the Order of Australia,
Once the wig is off, he says, he's back to being Campbell, and
that's where he stays until the next gig. There is certainly no
question of doing funny voices over breakfast to his health
administrator wife Wendy. "She's seen enough characters to last a
lifetime, and seen enough of me speaking to last several
lifetimes," he says.
It is clear he actually enjoys being plain Campbell McComas. He has also spent a great deal of performance time being himself, as a former ABC radio regular and as a professional MC and host.
Only a man who is supremely comfortable in his own skin would celebrate his 50th birthday by organising a party that required a 50-page running sheet, including a play based on his own life . This "real" McComas is a man who is, in some ways, not very different from the conservative commercial lawyer he might have been - had he not made the decision as a 26-year-old at Allens Arthur Robinson to take a year off and "have a go" at making comic speeches for a living.
Son of former 3DB broadcaster Geoff McComas, the onetime Uniting Church elder has a 22-year-old son who is studying law (and displaying an interest in acting). And, for all his travel, he remains firmly rooted in a safe, leafy Melbourne eastern-suburbs world where people really do talk about what schools they attended - and, in many cases, retain lifelong attachments to them.
McComas loved his old school, Scotch (and still does). It was where he learned parody, imitating a succession of eccentric teachers, where his love of acting flowered and where he had what he calls "the most completely satisfying theatrical experience" of his life - playing the lead in Arthur Miller's The Crucible.
He has always donated a substantial percentage of his work to 400 varied charities and causes and was made a member of the Order of Australia this year for his services to entertainment and charity. In 2002, he made a substantial donation to his old school Camberwell Primary, to honour his "first love", Miss Pamela Westh, who changed his life by taking him to a performance by the great mime Marcel Marceau.
The gift was marked by the renaming of a school building as the Westh wing.
In recent years, McComas has also been heavily involved with fundraising for an arts complex at Scotch, to be opened next year, with a theatre to be named after his father.
But one more performance awaits.
Charities have always received the $125,000 raised from each of the (so far) 18 presentations of the classic two-hander play Love Letters, which McComas has performed with actresses who included Lisa McCune and Amanda Muggleton.
"But it's all been a precursor to one day performing it with Meryl Streep." he says. Letters have been exchanged, with the starstruck McComas now in possession of a personal note from Streep. Handwritten. In the beautiful screen legend's own fair hand.
"Then I shall retire," he sighs. "Because I don't think I'll do anything more fulfilling."

Jumpers Set School Marks at SCIAC No. 2
CLU faces La Verne, Redlands, Whittier
REDLANDS, Calif. – Two more school records fell at the second Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) women's track and field meet of the season as Cal Lutheran competed with La Verne, Redlands and Whittier at Ted Runner Stadium on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon.
CLU athletes were victorious in eight events with two Cal Lutheran all-time best marks in the sand pit. First Lauren Rohach set a personal best and a CLU record with an NCAA qualifying mark in the Long Jump with a leap of 5.72m on her final attempt of the meet, winning by .20m over teammate Kendall Sauter (5.52m). Later freshman phenom Amanda Hamilton increased the record she set last weekend with a Triple Jump of 11.56m, winning by .84m.
Rohach was also part of the winning 4x100 meter Relay Team, running the second leg after Sauterled off. Rohach handed the baton to Audrey Dow who passed it along to CLU anchor Amy Galipeau. The quartet finished in a time of 48.31, just off school record pace.
Hamilton went on to win the 400m Hurdles by close to three seconds in 1:07.30.
Joining Rohach and Sauter as part of a CLU top-three sweep in the Long Jump today was Mary Case whose jump went for 5.14m, recording identical marks on both her third and fourth jumps of the meet.
A close race in the 200m dash saw Rohach place second, edging Ashley Lively (UR) by a hundredth of a second in 25.57. Juniors Dow (26.72) and Galipeau (26.88) were step-for-step for sixth and seventh.
Also earning a pair of first place finishes today was junior distance specialist Melissa Skiba. Running stride-for-stride with foe Lenore Moreno from La Verne, Skiba outkicked the Leopards runner who has given her a run for her money all year, beginning in the fall during cross country season. Skiba used the last 800m of the 1500m to open a gap Moreno could not compete with to win in 4:47.04, taking the race by 2.74 seconds.
Later in the day during the 5K, the duo ran side by side, lapping other runners. It was again Skiba who made a move in the 11th lap of the 12-lap race to cross the line first in 17:29.91. Moreno was second (17:40.85) with Chelsea Feller and Taelor Young locking up the third and fourth spots, respectively, with runs of 19:03.90 and 19:12.04.
The scoring today got started with Lauren Kennedy, Scout Gibson and Rachel Maurer going 1-2-3 in the 100m Hurdles. Kennedy won by 1.99 seconds in 15.18. The freshman pair of Gibson (17.17) and Maurer (17.35) was right on her heels.
Rounding out the Regals winners today was Ashley Frese whose 800m run of 2:21.76 was more than three seconds ahead of the second place finisher after she broke away from the pack. Frese also finished third in the 1500m as one of just three runners under the five-minute mark in 4:52.38.
Galipeau went on to run the 100m in 12.61 for third. Sauter was sixth in the event in a time of 12.75 with Kennedy also finishing top-10 in eighth with a run of 13.13.
Battling illness, Natalie Bullock ran to a second place finish in the 3000m Steeplechase.
In the throws, Brianna Panapa took second in the Hammer (46.89m), tied for second in the Discus (35.88m) and sixth in the Javelin (29.37m). At the time of release shot put results were unavailable.
Maisie Johnson (1.47m) was fifth in the High Jump just ahead of teammate Kaylin Garcia (1.44m). For the Regals, Case and Sheyenne Machida tied for sixth in the Pole Vault, each clearing 6.90m.
The 400m dash saw a pair of freshmen in Amy Falahat and Danielle Sullivan placed sixth and eighth, respectively, in 1:03.49 and 1:03.74.
Katie Kirchner ran the 800m in 2:28.58 for fifth.
Final team scores were also unavailable at the time of release.
Cal Lutheran travels to San Diego to close out spring break at the Point Loma University Invitational Thursday to Saturday March 28-30.
Results: SCIAC No. 2 – results unavailable at time of release

Optimal agricultural policy and PSE measurement: an assessment and application to Norway
The producer support estimate calculated by the OECD is widely misused as an indicator of distortions created by agricultural policies. In this paper we demonstrate rigorously that a change in the relative (percentage) PSE is not an accurate indicator of the implications of policy reform for domestic welfare or for trade distortions. If there are positive externalities linked to agricultural inputs (e.g., land), we demonstrate that replacing output subsidies by optimal Pigouvian subsidies may result in an increase or a reduction in relative PSE depending on the parameters of the production function. Using the example of Norway we show that an increase in the relative PSE is likely if the focus of agricultural policies shifts from income support to the provision of public goods.
