Medical Marijuana Dispensaries approved in Holyoke & Northampton
The State of Massachusetts Registered Medical Marijuana Dispensary Selection Committee has approved 20 new Medical Marijuana Dispensary licenses. Debilatating Medical Condition Treatment Centers in Holyoke and New England Treatment Access in Northampton received two of those licenses.
In the announcement dated January 31, 2014 it was stated "The selection of dispensaries was based on the quality of the applications. This was an objective, merit-based process guided by state procurement principles. The selection committee was supported by contracted, independent experts in subject matter (ICF International) and in background investigations (Creative Services, Inc. "CSI"). An expert review by ICF International scored the applications in areas including public health, securityand strength of business plan. The expert review determined the score for each applicant, based on a scale of 0 to 163 possible points. Scores of qualifying applicants were all 137 or higher. The score was not the only factor in making the final recommendations. The Department's Selection Committee considered the scores, along with geographic diversity, local support, and a strong focus on the ability to meet patient needs, while ensuring public safety. The Management Team, Board of Directors and investors of dispensaries were also subject to extensive civil and criminal background checks by CSI. Based on this process some applicants were not selected at this time. Page two (2) lists qualified applicants who were not granted their original proposed location, but will be invited to amend their application and seek a change of location to one of the counties that lacks a dispensary."

Gateways of Temptation (James 1:12-16)Greg Taylor, February 26, 2012
Part of the A Year of Living Christ.
In #21 in a series called, Living Christ, Greg Taylor speaks personally about temptation and calls each one of us to think personally and confess to God and accountability partners the gateways of temptation in our lives.
James 1:12-16
12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am being tempted by God," for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. (ESV)

Fall-Line Motorports GTD Has Early End To Rolex 24
Posted by: newsla on Jan 27, 2014 - 06:47 AM
Fall-Line Motorports GTD Has Early End To Rolex 24
The Fall-Line Motorsports' Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona came to an abrupt end yesterday just as it was getting started. Shortly after the green flag fell on the 52nd running of the historic race and the first under the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship banner, the Fall-Line Motorsports Audi R8 LMS driven by Charlie Putman made heavy contact with the wall entering turn one. The contact was severe and left the car un-repairable.
The early exit was a devastating end to a promising race as the #46 Fall-Line Motorsports Audi R8 LMS had been quick in practice and driver Oliver Jarvis qualified 3rd in the GTD category. The quartet of talented drivers Charles Espenlaub, James Walker, Jarvis and Putman had done their homework and were prepared for a long race in one of the most competitive classes in the field. The Audi R8 LMS was strong and the entire team had high hopes for a good finish.
The details of the crash are best told by the team's heart and soul Charlie Putman (one of the most likeable guys in the paddock) who was behind the wheel of the #46 when it suffered the fatal blow.
Charlie Putman: "I want to let our friends and fans know that the incident at Daytona today was sad and the impact was rough, but I am 100% okay. The engineering of the Audi R8 LMS chassis is incredible and functioned as designed, sacrificing itself to protect me from the high-speed impact. Of course we use the very best Safecraft seat belts and restraint nets with no compromises on any safety equipment and all of those safety systems paid for themselves today.
I'm personally so sad because all of the crew have worked long days and nights with unbelievable heartfelt dedication to make our car the best of the best. The hard physical impact to me and to the car was minor in comparison to the emotional blow to all of us. We have received such an outreach of concern and support from all our fans and I am truly touched and blessed by the well wishes of everyone. You will help us to be back stronger and faster than ever!
The Fall-Line Audi R8 LMS showed signs of being the fastest R8 in the field for this race and was setup beautifully. The setback to the rear of the grid on a technicality after qualifying in 3rd was not a concern to us, as we knew that in this long race with such a strong car we would easily work our way back into the thick of it. I was having a great opening stint and everything appears to have been normal according to the data systems, up until the moment the car unexplainably pitched to the inside of track just before entering turn one. This is the fasted place on the track, and not a place where cars are expected to spin, so the contact with the bare concrete wall there was disastrous. It is too early to theorize exactly what happened, but as one of my teammates reminded me, this is racing and things happen. We just keep striving forward and we will prevail.
I want to thank my co-drivers Charles Espenlaub, and particularly Oliver Jarvis and James Walker for their support and contributions to the team. While Charles (Espenlaub) and I have teamed up for many years, this was our first opportunity to work with Oliver (Jarvis) and James (Walker). We hope to see more of them as they are not only exceptional drivers, but very nice people (if you can ignore their British accent!) Nathan McBride is simply a genius on the car set-up and development. Our relationship with Audi's support group really shows the signs of mutual respect and I know that as the year goes on we will only grow stronger together.
Thanks again to all our friends for the concerns and well wishes."
Teammates Jarvis, Walker and Espenlaub also share Putman's sentiments:
Oliver Jarvis: "After a great buildup to the race, it's devastating to go out so early. The team did a fantastic job and I know we had a car capable of winning the race. But unfortunately that's motor sport. The most important thing is that Charlie (Putman) is okay. I would like to say a huge thanks to the team who worked their butts off to prepare the car for this race and it's a real shame they didn't get the reward they deserved."
James Walker: "It's obviously disappointing to go out early on in the race, but the main thing is that Charlie (Putman) is okay. It's very easy to forget just how quick these cars go, especially around the banking at Daytona. It was my first race with the Fall-Line crew and hopefully not my last. It's been great to work with everyone. They are such a professional outfit. A huge thank you to everyone there for all their hard work."
Charles Espenlaub: "We are so glad Charlie (Putman) is okay. We have to thank Fall-Line and Audi for building a very safe Audi R8 LMS. It did its job and kept Charlie out of harms way. It is so unfortunate that all the hard work and preparation over the last few months by everyone will not get the results they deserve. They did all the work and we were in position for a great result but that is racing and we will be ready for Sebring."
Michael Harvey, Fall-Line Motorsports Team Manager: "Very disappointing to go out so early and just glad Charlie is okay. The whole Fall-Line crew has worked so hard and we defiantly had a car to compete for the win. Huge thanks to Oliver (Jarvis) and James (Walker) who fit in seamlessly to our program and of course our friends at Audi Sport customer racing who have been incredible with their constant support and service."

Researchers frequently need to explore the effects of certain data characteristics on their models. To help construct datasets exhibiting specific properties, such as autocorrelation or degree disparity, Proximity can generate synthetic data having one of several types of graph structure:
random graphs
independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) connected components
lattice graphs having a ring structure
lattice graphs having a grid structure
forest fire graphs
cluster graphs with nodes arranged in separate clusters (cliques)
In all cases, the data generation process follows the same process:
Generate the empty graph structure.
Generate attribute values based on user-supplied prior probabilities.
Because the attribute values of one object may depend on the attribute values of related objects, the attribute generation process assigns values collectively.
Details for each of these steps are presented in the context of a script that generates i.i.d. data, shown below.
The i.i.d. graph generation process creates a set of independent
connected components
containing two object types:
and T. Each component contains a single
S object that is linked to a variable
number (
We typically consider the S objects to be the target objects to be classified, with the T objects used as peripheral objects during classification. Each S object is assigned a single, discrete attribute (s_class_label in this example) that can be used as a class label. In order to generate datasets with degree disparity, the assignment of class labels is conditioned on the degree of the object in the graph. The generation process can also add additional discrete attributes to the S and T objects, respectively.
The following script creates four connected components using two
different degree distributions. Both S and
T objects are given one additional

8 Revolting Celeb Sex Tapes & The Ones We Wish We'd Seen Instead
We did you a favor and watched the Hulk Hogan sex tape so you don't have to. It is indeed as cringeworthy as it sounds. We're all contemplating gouging our eyes out. Here are worst things about it: first, that Hulk Hogan is naked. But also, that the alleged woman in the tape is Heather Clem (the ex-wife of his best friend Bubba the Love Sponge who appears to be in the house while all this is happening WHAT?), that Brooke Hogan's song is the ring tone on his phone and that it rings while he's in the middle of bizness, that he tells a story about his son's girlfriend propositioning him for sex, that he keeps referring to himself as a pig because he just ate so much and last but not least, he says "you're awesome" as he walks out the door. That's all you really need to know. Never again shall we speak of it.
Final thoughts on the sex tape: why couldn't it have been Ryan Lochte instead? We would have rather watched him having one of his one-night-stands, screaming out "Jeah!" during orgasm. It hardly ever works that way though, does it?
Click onward for more of the most disturbing sex tapes to ever burn our retinas and the ones we wish we'd seen instead. [DListed]

Abstract or Description
Subjects in economic experiments are often generous. This behavior is often
interpreted as reflecting a preference for equitable, efficient, or otherwise desirable social
outcomes. We show that a considerable proportion of such fair behavior may be driven by a
desire to appear fair without actually wanting a fair outcome. To do so, we first demonstrate a
high frequency of fair behavior in a modification of the standard dictator game, but then show
that fairness decreases substantially when the connection between choices and outcomes is
Specifically, we show that in a binary version of the dictator game, a majority of
subjects choose the fair and efficient outcome. We then show that subjects playing the same
game instead choose to maximize their own payoffs, at the expense of fairness and efficiency,
when the recipients' payoffs are uncertain, even if this uncertainty can be costlessly resolved.
We also find that when either of two subjects can sacrifice to implement a fair and efficient
outcome, but neither can ensure fairness or inefficiency, selfishness prevails. Finally, we also
find less fair behavior when unfair outcomes can plausibly result from an external factor
rather than just the dictator's choice.
Our results indicate that much fair behavior may reflect motivations other than simply
a preference for desirable social outcomes. Instead, much of the behavior in our experiments
is consistent with a desire to pursue self-interest, while maintaining the illusion of behaving
Do people share with others because they want to, or because they feel they have to in
certain situations? This paper explores the motivation for fair behavior. In particular, we
explore whether experimental demonstrations of people sacrificing monetary payoffs to
benefit others truly represent evidence of concern for others' welfare or for desirable social
outcomes. To do so, we use experimental manipulations that allow subjects to leave the
relationship between their actions and others' outcomes uncertain. These manipulations thus
allow subjects to choose selfishly without knowing whether they negatively impact others'
payoffs. However, in our manipulations subjects may always implement the fair outcome
with certainty if they so desire. We find significantly less generous behavior in these
manipulations relative to a baseline in which the relationship between actions and others'
outcomes is certain, as in the standard dictator game. This finding occurs in spite of the fact
that the recipients are anonymous and cannot retaliate. We conclude that people are often fair
because they intrinsically dislike appearing unfair, either to themselves or others.

Keeping tabs on insider trading activity is a great way to avoid locking in losses. That's because when you look at the total stock market, you'll see that corporate insiders — the executives and directors who know more about their company's prospects than you — don't sell low.
Interestingly, insider trading appears to be a good short-term indicator, too.
Insiders always sell more stock than they buy. After all, they get most of their shares in the form of options, warrants and straight-up stock as part of their compensation packages. But it turns out that the ratio of insider selling to insider buying appears to correlate closely with short-term market swings, notes Beating Buffett, a value investing website.
Looking at the overall market, when insiders sell $12 of stock for every $1 they buy — a ratio of 12:1 — or less, that's a bullish indicator for the S&P 500. When the ratio jumps to 20:1 or greater, that's a bearish indicator.
Have a look at this chart courtesy of Beating Buffett, which compares the ratio of insider selling to buying with the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY) over the last year:
We're only about halfway through June, but the current sell-to-buy ratio stands at just 8.25, according to Thomson Reuters Stock Reports, meaning insiders are selling $8.25 worth of stock for every $1 they're buying. That's the lowest level since September 2011, when the ratio hit 5.98. By Beating Buffett's reckoning, the market is set for more short-term gains.
Taking another view, it's abundantly clear that if you look at the sell-to-buy ratio, insiders just don't sell low. They hold onto their shares when the market is tanking, and sell like mad when stocks are rising.
Have a look at this one-year chart of the overall market's sell-to-buy ratio, courtesy of Thomson Reuters Stock Reports:
Last summer's market rout saw the S&P 500 close below 1,150 nine times in August and September. Stocks didn't sound a bottom until Sept. 30, when the S&P closed at 1,099, off 13.6% for the year to date. The chart shows that during those same two months, the insider sell-to-buy ratio also bottomed out.
Now, have a look at when the ratio peaked, and you'll notice that insiders do what all investors are supposed to do: They sell high. During the past year, the sell-to-buy ratio peaked in February and March when the S&P 500 was on its way up to above 1,400, good for a 13% year-to-date gain at that point.
Insiders don't sell low for a bunch of reasons. (That you can't make money exercising underwater options is a biggie.) But they also know that panicking when the market is tanking is a great way to lock in losses. Retail investors would be wise to remember that the next time stocks plunge.
As of this writing, Dan Burrows did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

Grandpa Harley
Hass "The Flame" Harley (fan name)
About 90. Birthdate is April 21, 1910. Deathdate is circa 2000, during Jade's early childhood
Presumably riflekind or pistolkind
Jake English - Post-scratch self
Live(s) in
A high-tech tower on a Pacific Island
Suits of armor, decrepit mummies, big game trophies, cerulean sunbleached photos of women, globes.
Grandpa is Jade Harley's genetic father and adoptive grandfather. In his first appearance, he is shown to be dead and preserved by taxidermy.
Biography Edit
Childhood Edit
While initially introduced as Jade's grandfather, he is actually a paradox clone of himself sent back in time as an infant. He also provided half of the DNA of both Jade and John which was combined with John's Nanna through Ectobiology. This action created an interesting paradox, with John creating both Jade's Grandfather and himself from the present and sending the clones as infants to their proper times.
Due to the events of The Reckoning Grandpa was sent from The Veil to Earth, where he accidentally shot, and killed, Colonel Sassacre, who was looking after the child version of Nanna. He then grew up as Nanna's adopted brother and Betty Crocker's adoptive grandson. Eventually he decided to leave to seek adventure with the Colonel's dog, Halley.
Adult LifeEdit
In Hiveswap it is revealed that he settled down with a woman named A. Claire and eventually fathered two children named Joey Claire and Jude Harley roughly 30 years before the events of Homestuck.
As Jade's Guardian Edit
When Betty Crocker mysteriously disappeared, Grandpa Harley inherited her baking empire. By this point Grandpa Harley was a renowned billionaire explorer and inventor. After a Skaian meteor carrying a baby Jade destroyed a Betty Crocker plant in John's town, he set off with his newfound shipmate to go plunder the secrets of a certain Pacific Island with interesting historical monuments. Despite currently being dead, stuffed, and on display in the house, Jade still avoids him, leery of any "confrontation", as though his being dead has not stopped him from lecturing her whenever she approaches his stuffed remains. She apparently finds these confrontations to be 'intense' as her grandpa is very strict and charismatic. He's prone to giving stern lectures to Jade whenever they meet and insists Jade carry a hunting rifle when she leaves the house, or else "there would be hell to pay." According to Jade, he was much easier to deal with when he was alive. Even the battle engine seemed confused, deeming their combat 'STRIFE?'. Grandpa Harley seems to suggest that Jade take a bigger and more effective gun before she goes outside to defend herself.
He decorated his house with multiple motifs, including suits of armor (including some more modern armors such those of Iron Man and the Judge), decrepit mummies, big game trophies, sunbleached photos of women (his 'beauties'), and globes. Though Jade doesn't mind the suits of armor, she hates the mummies and hunting trophies. Some of the big game trophies in Grandpa's tower appear to be chimeras, or combinations of different animals. Whether these are genetic experiments, mythical creatures, or terrible abuses of taxidermy is unknown. Notably, some of his trophies are the mounted heads of Underlings.
While at first it seemed that Grandpa was Jade's current guardian, he, like many things associated with Jade, is a bit of a pattern breaker and it has been revealed that he is dead and had been replaced by Becquerel.
According to Jade, Grandpa is an extreme polymath; he's a world-renowned explorer, naturalist, treasure hunter, archeologist, scientist, adventurer, big game hunter, and billionaire. This would explain the close proximity of ancient ruins to his house and having a laboratory. His renaissance man aspect may be the main contributor to the fact that both Jade and Dave Strider consider him to be a badass. However, his badassery did not prevent his death at the hands of Tavros Nitram. When the pistols Jade was playing with went off, Tavros communed with Bec and teleported the gun and bullets next to Grandpa, effectively saving Jade, but killing Grandpa.
He was then stuffed and set up infront of the fireplace, just like Poppop. Grandpa was originally a prime candidate for Jade's Kernelsprite, but John advised Jade against it before entering, as prototyping him would lead to a lot of the enemies having Grandpa's face. They were planning to prototype him after entering, but Bec warped Grandpa's body (along with the rest of the room's contents) into outer space so that he could prototype the Kernelsprite with himself. Grandpa's body remained in outer space until the universe was destroyed by Jack Noir.
In the Medium Edit
In the Medium, a character with the same build and mannerisms saved John from a Tar Basilisk using an extremely powerful blunderbuss. This seems to correspond to the game trophies above the fireplace which included a crude ogre, two basilisks and another creature that Dad is later seen fighting. His purple and gold fireplace also tie into the Weird plot shit, representing the kingdoms of Derse and Prospit, as well as the image of Jade in her dream self outfit crowning the fireplace.
Grandpa operates what appears to be a massive battleship, which he uses to traverse The Medium. After Jack Noir's rampage, he brings Dad and Rose's Mom to the ruins of the Skaian Battlefield and retrieves the body of Jade's dead dream self, which he stuffs, following a proud, if somewhat unsettling, family tradition. The stuffed dream Jade is displayed in one of the unvisited rooms in Jade's home, beside the fourth wall pilfered from Jack Noir's cubicle and a stuffed Halley.
In the post-scratch version of the kids' universe, it is later revealed that the Frog Temple had two hidden transportalizers. These lead to Prospit and Derse, based on their colorations. This would explain Grandpa's accessibility to the Medium, a secret long kept throughout the story, should these transportalizers exist in all instances of the temple itself. They would not account for the apparent time travel involved in the situation. It can, however, be assumed that Grandpa may simply have used the Lotus Time Capsule, or can be explained by the fact that the Medium's timeline doesn't match up with Earth's , as shown in [S] Dirk: Unite.
Relationships Edit
His relationship with Becquerel has never been stated, but Bec was presumably loyal to him and still sleeps at the feet of his stuffed corpse.

The Get Clean Deluxe Kit
5 Recommendations
greenlady1's recommendation
I love these cleaners. My daughter's skin is irritated by regular cleaners, especially laundry detergent. I tried about 8 different kinds and finally found Shaklee. It works great. I replaced all the cleaners in my house with these products. The neat thing is that they are really concentrated so I haven't had to buy cleaner every 2 weeks like I did before. The Basic H2 has lasted me since August, and I even used some to in my carpet cleaner. Great stuff.
jwhittaker's recommendation
I love these products, because not only do they clean well, but they last for a long time. Reduce waste in our landfills, prevent poisoning of our children and pets and just plan work.
rcmwhouston's recommendation
Just received mine this week. Love the smell and seems to be doing great at cleaning. My dishes have never came out so clean before. I also have just joined as an Independent Distributor, loving it!!! www.shaklee.net/corley
smummert's recommendation
I have tried other products and this is one of the best. I even signed up as a distributor. Stephanie www.shaklee.net/mummert
Yournewbestfriend's recommendation
I got tired of feeling woozy and getting that weird feeling in my nose after cleaning my kitchen and bathroom so I switched to green cleaning products. They smell fantastic, and leave you feeling pure, not all chemicalled up. Plus, they are way friendlier on our soils and environment because they don't carry harmful toxic substances and fragances through out water. No more breathing in carcinogens! Yay!

The Seattle Mariners honored Puyallup Tribal Veterans July 31 during a pre-game ceremony on the field. Tribal Veteran Rodney Sisson was given the chance to throw the first pitch, which sailed straight through the strike zone. "That was definitely one of the coolest things I've ever done," he said. "It was surreal, hanging out with my veteran buddies on the field."
As the first minority group to be honored in such a way by the Mariners, the opportunity meant a great deal to all Puyallup Tribal veterans, he added. "It was such a privilege to be honored by the Mariners," Sisson said.
Tribal veteran Jose Landry carried the Eagle Staff onto the field, dressed in his traditional regalia, which was a special moment for Veteran Committee Chairman Milton Guenther.
"The recognition we received that night meant so much to us as Native Americans as well as veterans," he said.
The veterans had a chance to pose for photos with Mariners Manager Eric Wedge before touring through the team's interview room where press conferences typically take place.
"So much has happened since I joined the committee in 2003, and to know that we were invited onto the field during a game played on national TV was incredible," Guenther added.

A leading analyst company has called into question the claims that AT&T's shutdown of its 2G network could leave M2M customers stranded.
The US operator recently announced plans to gradually phase out its 2G network, shifting customers and spectrum over to 3G and 4G technologies, and that a full transition would be finalized by 2017.
The news was met with a chorus of criticism that M2M customers would be left out in the cold, forced to change providers or pay AT&T higher rates for 3G or 4G connections.
Unsurprisingly, some of the loudest taunts came from rival operators Sprint and RACO, an MVNO customer of T-Mobile. Neither has announced plans to shut down its own 2G network, and they seem to view the AT&T scheme as an opportunity to mop up some of the operator's disgruntled M2M clients.
But according to Current Analysis, M2M clients are already looking to 3G technology as a way to "future-proof" their services.
In a blog post, analyst Kitty Weldon says if there is any possibility customer needs for bandwidth will increase—perhaps due to more frequent sensor polling or hungrier applications—then M2M companies will consider migrating to 3G.
Indeed, according to Weldon, Verizon is actively promoting its 4G network as an option for M2M because it ultimately plans to use the infrastructure for all the communications services it supports. With that in mind, the operator is busy working with device companies to lower the cost of M2M modules using 3G and 4G technology.
AT&T says that only 12% of its current postpaid connections use 2G technology, while industry estimates are that approximately 80% of worldwide M2M connections use 2G, as opposed to 3G or 4G.
"All in all, AT&T clearly views that losing a few low-speed customers is worth it, as its short-term revenue and profit calculations are already tied to 3G, and its longer-term future is married to 4G LTE," writes Weldon. "And by 2017, other operators may end up viewing their 2G networks as more of a liability than a source of revenue."

Water-Supply Paper 2502
Summary of Significant Floods in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, 1970 Through 1989
Summary of Significant Floods, 1970 Through 1989, by Year
This section includes brief descriptions of selected signficant interstate and intra-state floods in yearly accounts. Floods described in this section were those with excessive loss of life, excessive damage, extreme discharge or gage height, or those regional in extent. References are provided for these as well as other selected significant floods that occurred during the year. Figures 3-22 in this section depict widespread regional flooding by giving the percentage of streamflow-gaging stations in each State or territory recording greater than the approximate 20-year recurrence-interval flooding during the calendar year.
The San Francisco Bay area of California experienced the first significant flooding of 1982 when an intense storm system came onshore during January 3 through 5 (fig. 15). The storm caused continuous, moderate rainfall for about 34 hours over the San Francisco Bay area. Landslides began around 9:00 a.m. on January 4 and quickly transformed to debris flows. In addition to the landslides and debris flows, flooding was considerable throughout the area. Many small streams had maximums of record, but the record lengths for streams in the area are relatively short. There were 31 deaths, and total damage from the storm was $75 million (Paulson and others, 1991).
A rapid increase in temperatures caused spring snowmelt floods in Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio in March. In addition to the melting of a deep snowpack, moderate rains fell across the area, which intensified the melting. Continued periods of rain throughout the month resulted in streams sustaining high flow and causing additional maximum discharges. Recurrence intervals for maximum discharges recorded at several streamflow-gaging stations in the St. Joseph, Yellow, Maumee, and Kankakee River Basins were 50 to 100 years.
On March 31, a cold front collided with warm Pacific air over central California causing 2 in. of rain to fall in San Jose during a very short period of time (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 1982). Six streams in and near San Jose overflowed and forced the evacuation of 50 homes. Some of the floodwaters were stored in the Coyote and Anderson Reservoirs upstream from San Jose, which helped reduce the severity of the flooding.
Excessive rainfall fell mostly during the last 3 weeks of May and first week of June over much of western South Dakota. Spearfish received 11.22 in. of rain from May 14 to 21 and had a total of 14.31 in. for the month of May. Other rainfall amounts for May were 11.30 in. at Elm Springs, 10.70 in. at Lead and at Belle Fourche, 9.90 in. at Eagle Butte, 9.87 in. at Milesville, 9.85 in. at Wasta, and 9.53 in. at Timber Lake. Near-record stages were recorded on the Little Missouri, Moreau, Belle Fourche, Cheyenne, and White Rivers.
A storm that local newspapers dubbed "the worst spring storm during the 20th century" ravaged through Connecticut, eastern New York, and central and eastern Massachusetts on June 5 through 7. The storm produced rainfall totals as high as 16 in. in Connecticut (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 1982). At several places, the rainfall recorded with the storm was the highest recorded for a non-hurricane storm. This storm resembled a "northeaster" without the cold temperatures. Almost every stream in Connecticut flooded, with central Connecticut being the hardest hit. Eleven deaths and damages of $250 million were caused by the floods (Paulson and others, 1991).
Persistent moderate to intense rains throughout May resulted in record flooding in Iowa in June and July. The floods occurred mostly in southwestern and east-central Iowa. Many streams had record discharges. The maximum discharges for Old Mans Creek at Highway 149 near Williamsburg were twice the 100-year recurrence-interval flood. One of the largest floods ever recorded in Iowa occurred July 3 on Cedar Creek near Bussey. The recorded discharge was more than twice that of a 100-year recurrence-interval flood.
Early in the morning of July 15, an earthen dam in the Front Range of the Colorado Rocky Mountains failed, releasing 674 acre-ft of water and an estimated maximum discharge of 18,000 ft³/s down Roaring River Valley. The onslaught of water caused another dam downstream to fail also. Geomorphic and sedimentologic evidence suggest that this was probably the largest flood in the Roaring and Fall River Basins since the retreat of the glaciers about 10,000 years ago. Along the course of the flood, channels were widened tens of feet and either scoured or filled. An alluvial fan of 42.3 acres, containing about 226 acre-ft of material, was deposited at the month of the Roaring River. The alluvial fan dammed the Fall River, forming a lake of 17 acres upstream from the fan. Three people were killed, and total damages from the flood were estimated at $31 million (Paulson and others, 1991).
Intense thunderstorms produced by a nearly stationary weather front over Kansas City, Missouri, caused significant flooding August 12 through 13. Flash flooding was prevalent during the night and early morning hours on August 12. These floods affected much of the same area as the 1977 floods in Kansas City. Maximum discharges at several stations exceeded the discharges recorded for the 1977 flood. Four deaths occurred from the flooding, and damages were estimated at about $30 million (Paulson and others, 1991).
Flood-producing thunderstorms moved through Tennessee on four separate occasions from July to September. On July 31, 2.5 to 6 in. of rain caused flash floods in eastern Tennessee (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 1982). Record-breaking floods in central and eastern Tennessee on August 17 resulted from rainfall that exceeded the 100-year expected rainfall. Flooding continued on August 30 through September 4 in north-central Tennessee. Water covered major highways, washed out bridges, and prompted evacuations of approximately 300 people.
Remnants of Tropical Storm Chris caused torrential rains and flooding throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Kentucky on September 12. Significant flooding occurred along the Rutherford and South Forks of the Obion River and the North and Middle Forks of the Deer River in western Tennessee.
On November 23, Hurricane Iwa passed 30 mi west of Kauai and became the most costly storm to hit the State of Hawaii. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) estimated losses at $308 million. Most of the damage was a result of high tidal surges as the winds were very high, but little rain fell. Surge levels exceeded the 100-year flood, and the debris line left by the tidal surge on Kauai was as much as 900 feet inland from the boundary of the 100-year flood level shown on FEMA flood-insurance maps.
Widespread flooding occurred in December 1982 and January 1983 in the Mississippi River Basin. Streams in Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee were hardest hit by the floods. Flooding resulted from two main periods of intense rains; the first storm occurred from December 2 through 7 and the second from December 24 through 29. Missouri, Illinois, and Arkansas were affected by the earlier storm, and Louisiana and Mississippi were affected by the later storm. Significant floods, many of which exceeded the 100-year recurrence intervals, occurred in Missouri in the Gasconade, Osage, Meramec, St. Francis, and Current River Basins. In Arkansas, the Buffalo River experienced record flooding. Louisiana experienced extensive flooding as well, with most of the damage occurring along the Calcasieu, Little, Black, Red, and Ouachita Rivers.

You can usually take higher education courses if you're 18 or older. They're regularly taught in universities, colleges and professional institutions such as art schools or agricultural colleges - nearly all of which have their own websites. You can get a wide range of skills, for example, diplomas, bachelor degrees, foundation degrees and post-graduate degrees.
Architecture is the process of designing and planning a space or building according to a set of aesthetic, social and environmental guidelines. Because of this, architecture is often divided into categories depending on the overarching style.
The Netherlands is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, consisting of twelve provinces in North-West Europe and three islands in the Caribbean.

Rationale of the Training Course - Eco-Cities: Policies for Sustainable Energy
Half the world's population now live in built-up areas, with an estimated 60 million people being added every year. This rapid urban growth leads to environmental degradation and excessive demands on services and infrastructure. Energy consumption has increased drastically. To address this it is necessary to develop sustainable urban energy policies and best practices in efficient land use, transport, sustainable buildings and sustainable development overall.

Rationale of the Training Course - Developing Social Housing Projects
One of the characteristics of developing countries is fast growing cities and the lack of affordable and adequate housing. Social housing policies try to address the housing problem but have often been implemented in such ways that the people in real need are not reached and/or the social housing projects do not improve the overall living conditions of people or lack a contribution to sustainable urban development o their problems. Developing and therefore allowing for better implementation of social housing contributes directly to the living conditions and to the growth of cities in the developing world.

If you look at the SKY at NIGHT you will see BRIGHT stars and DIM stars. The BRIGHTNESS of stars depends upon
(a) - How much POWER the star gives out and
(b) - How FAR away the star is from us.
A star that appears BRIGHT to us may be a dim star that is NEAR to us or a VERY bright star that is FAR away. To overcome this problem astronomers use the term TRUE BRIGHTNESS (or LUMINOSITY) to describe how bright a star is. This terms describes the POWER output of the star and is therefore INDEPENDENT of distance away from us.
The TRUE BRIGHTNESS of a star is often stated with reference to how much power our own SUN gives out (it has a power output = 1 SUN). For example, the NORTH POLE STAR (Polaris) which gives out 10,000 times the power of our own Sun is said to have a true brightness of 10,000 suns. The true brightness of stars varies enormously from about a million suns to one-millionth of a sun. Our own Sun is a very ORDINARY star!
If you look CAREFULLY at the stars at night you will notice that although most are WHITE. some look a little BLUISH and some slightly REDDISH in colour. This is because the WAVELENGTH of light given out by any object (including stars) depends upon its TEMPERATURE. A star with a temperature of:-
(a) 3,000 ºC looks slightly REDDISH
(b) 6,000 ºC looks WHITE
(c) 10,000 ºC looks BLUISH.
Answer the following questions on the BRIGHTNESS and TEMPERATURE of stars.
1 - Which of the following stars would appear brightest to someone looking at them from the Earth?
STAR A --- has a TRUE BRIGHTNESS of 2 suns and is 10 light years away
STAR B --- has a TRUE BRIGHTNESS of 2 suns and is 5 light years away
STAR C --- has a TRUE BRIGHTNESS of 1 sun and is 5 light years away
2 - When light passes through a PRISM it is split up into a number of different COLOURS (wavelengths).
a. What is this set of colours (which make up white light) called?
b. What are the different colours white light can be split up into?
c. Which colour has the SHORTEST wavelength?
3 - What colour would a star be if its surface temperature was 3,150 C?
The following two tables contain a RANDOM sample of stars; those which are CLOSEST to Earth and those which are BRIGHTEST in the sky.
Name of Star Distance Away True Surface from the Earth Brightness Temperature of (light years) (Our Sun = 1) Star Sun - 1.0 5,530 Proxima 4.2 0.1 2,530 Centauri Alpha Centauri A 4.3 1.03 5,530 Alpha Centauri B 4.3 0.93 4,480 Barnard's Star 6.0 0.30 2,730 Wolf 359 7.7 0.01 2,430 BD 36 8.2 0.53 2,930 UV Ceti A 8.4 0.10 2,430 UV Ceti B 8.4 0.07 2,430 Sirius A 8.6 1.28 8,830 Sirius B 8.6 0.47 8,730 Ross 154 9.4 0.31 2,730 Ross 248 10.4 0.17 2,530 Eta Eri 10.8 0.89 4,330 Ross 128 10.9 0.28 2,630 Cygnus A 11.1 0.77 4,130 Cygnus B 11.1 0.70 3,930 Eta Ind 11.2 0.82 4,180 BD 43 A 11.2 0.53 3,030 BD 43 B 11.2 0.28 2,730 Procym A 11.4 1.2 6,330 Procym B 11.4 0.32 7,130 BD 59 A 11.6 0.47 2,830 BD 59 B 11.6 0.41 2,730 COD 11.7 0.60 3,030
N.B. (a) There are seven sets of BINARY stars in the above
(b) The BRIGHTNESSES are in fact log (true brightness)
1 - Plot a SCATTER graph of the TEMPERATURE of the star (on x-axis going up to about 27,000 C) against TRUE BRIGHTNESS (on y-axis going up to 2.0) Plot each star as a HEAVY dot. Also plot the stars on page 3.
a. All but EIGHT of the stars lie almost on a SMOOTH curve.
Draw a smooth
curve through MOST of the stars
b. Label on this curve our SUN; the HOT, BRIGHT stars and the COOL, DIM stars
Name of Star Distance away True Brightness Surface from the Earth Our Sun = 1) Temperature of (light years) Star (C> Canopus 74 1.61 7,330 Vega 25 1.35 9,630 Archernar 69 1.51 20,230 Betelgeuse 1,400 2.00 3,930 Hadar 320 1.77 25,230 Acrux 510 1.78 26,480 Altair 16 1.21 7,830 Aldebaran 60 1.43 3,860 Antares 520 1.83 3,010 Spica 220 1.67 25,230 Fomalhaut 22 1.23 8,780 Becrux 460 1.79 26,680 Deneb 1,500 2.00 9,070 Regulus 69 1.43 13,180 Adhara 570 1.80 22,730 Castor 49 1.36 9,380 Gacrux 120 1.50 2,730 Shaula 330 1.69 23,980

Alternatively, if the modem can be configured to use 192.168.1.2 as its
default gateway, then the second NAT rule is unnecessary.

By Ryan Divish The News Tribune
HOUSTON — There isn't much drama when something is expected.
On Tuesday afternoon, the Seattle Mariners made the roster move everyone knew would happen. The team placed center fielder Franklin Gutierrez on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right hamstring and recalled outfielder Carlos Peguero from Class AAA Tacoma.
Mariners manager Eric Wedge made it clear after Tuesday's game that yet another disabled list appearance for Gutierrez seemed like a foregone conclusion after the oft-injured center fielder suffered the injury on a diving catch attempt and was forced to leave Monday's game.
The future for Gutierrez is uncertain. He will have an MRI on Thursday in Seattle to see the extent of the injury.
"We'll have a better an idea from there," Wedge said. "I really can't put a time limit on it right now."
It's the third straight season that Gutierrez will spend time to the disabled list. Last year, he was on there twice, first with a strained pectoral and then later with a concussion. The year before that, he missed a lot of time with complications from irritable bowel syndrome.
He's played in just 132 games combined during the previous two seasons, including just 40 last season.
"There have been players who have just been snake-bitten before and I do think he's one of the most unlucky guys I have the fortune of being around," Wedge said.
It's not like the Mariners haven't been proactive in trying to keep Gutierrez healthy.
"Everybody has tried everything under the sun to help him stay on the field," Wedge said. "Whether it's body type or bad luck, whatever it may be, there's nothing that hasn't been looked at with him. It's just unfortunate. I feel bad for him and I feel bad for us."
Peguero heard about Gutierrez from Rainiers manager Daren Brown when he was pulled out of the game.
The move to go with Peguero is somewhat surprising. He was hitting just .246 (15-for-61) with three doubles, a triple, two homers and 14 RBI in 17 games with Tacoma. It seemed like Eric Thames might get the call instead. Thames is tearing the cover off the ball in Tacoma, hitting .347 (26-for-75) with four doubles, a triple and four homers with 10 RBI. He has a .449 on-base percentage thanks to 13 walks. He's struck out 20 times, but has a slugging percentage of .587.
So why did Wedge choose Carlos Peguero over Eric Thames for the roster?
"We talked about Eric as well, but I just felt like we were better off with Carlos defensively and on the base paths as well," Wedge said.
Wedge also mentioned Peguero's improved patience at the plate as something of a positive. Peguero has taken 11 walks in 74 plate appearances. Last year, he took 29 in 322 plate appearances at the Class AAA level.
Brown told Wedge that Peguero had been working hard with hitting coach Howard Johnson about being more disciplined and not chasing pitches out of the strike zone.
"It's as much as being willing to take those walks as anything," Wedge said. "As big as he is, and as strong as he is, he does scare people out of the zone. He has been better with (taking pitches)."
The problem with Peguero is that he can let the gravity of the situation overtake that teaching. It's something former Rainiers hitting coach Jeff Pentland lamented this spring. Pentland said all the progress he would make with Peguero in terms of approach or swing changes would go out the door the moment he got up with runners in scoring position or in big situations.
That was also the case in his previous major league appearances. He just seems to forget everything he should and is supposed to be doing and just starts taking mad hacks trying to hit the ball of the planet.
Will he be different this time?
"Every time I get called up and then get sent back down, I learn something," Peguero said. "I've been walking more. I'm just trying to look for my pitch. I'm trying to look for that good one."
How long Peguero is actually with the team or how much he plays is based on the return of Michael Saunders, who is eligible to come off the disabled list on Friday. Saunders is near ready, although the Mariners might wait a day or two before activating him.
Saunders played catch on Wednesday and threw from a distance of more than 60 feet
"I was able to put a little more on it," he said "There's still the feeling of a little discomfort. It's encouraging to actually get out there and do it."
But there's been no pain in the shoulder when it comes to hitting.
"It was probably the best I felt," he said. "I saw some carry on the ball. It was coming off my bat a little better."
The shoulder has forced him to make a few minor adjustments to his swing for the moment.
"I'm still finishing with two hands," he said. "But the swing actually feels really good with that finish. I know as the days go on, it will get more flexible. It might be one of those things in a game, where your competitive nature takes over and you just forget about it. And you take a good hard cut and you let go with your top hand as you make contact."
Saunders wouldn't say if he was coming back Friday and neither would Wedge.
"I feel like it's going to be around the corner," he said. "I'm definitely getting close. But it depends on the situation. If it's what's best for me, and what's best for the team, I will go down and play. If I can step back in right away, I will do that to."
He knows he can't come back to soon if he isn't full healed. He's made that mistake before.
"It was the same thing with my groin last year," he said. "I pushed it and I got pulled back in the fourth inning or whenever it was when I had a play to make. It was more in the end of the year last year. Luckily it happened at the beginning of this year, it's one of those things where I have to make sure I'm not going to injure it any further.
"If I'm able to go out there and play to an ability to help the club, I can't rush back and be disservice to the club by not being able to perform to the best of my ability."
