The Tomball City Council took another step towards approving a budget for the 2013-14 fiscal year, during a long evening of successive meetings July 16.
First up for the evening was a budget workshop, consisting of city council members and department heads.
City manager George Shackelford updated council on requested changes from the previous workshop, including a large sidewalk improvement project. Funds collected from red-light traffic camera violations will be used to build a new web of sidewalks around the hospital area.
"We got together and are recommending the area around the hospital," he said. "We can connect a large spoke around that area and thought that is where we'd get our biggest bang for the buck."
Shackelford said the budget will also consist of a new monitored fire alarm system for city hall, which it is currently lacking. Shackelford said the budget can handle the estimated $40,000 cost, without affecting the bottom line.
During the group's first workshop a few weeks ago, councilman Field Hudgens proposed looking into putting aside city funds to pay off debt early. City finance director Glenn Windsor said he talked to several people who had not heard of an idea like this before. Windsor said the penalties for paying off a bond early can outweigh the benefits sometimes and that usually refinancing the debt is the best option for saving money.
Windsor also said that a 2003 bond issue can be refinanced later this year and with interest rates remaining low, could save the city around $300,000.
After hearing the explanations, Hudgens and the other councilman agreed that the idea may best be put on hold for further study.
The group then discussed setting aside money so city officials could attend Tomball's sister city's anniversary ceremonies. Telgte, Germany will celebrate more than 700 years since its initial settlement, later this year.
"Whoever is available should go to this," Mayor Pro Tem Rick Brown said.
The council decided to set aside more than $20,000 for the occasion.
"They have supported all of our special functions and I think we should reciprocate," Tomball Mayor Gretchen Fagan said.
To round out the first meeting the group also approved setting aside $70,000 to clean and put a new clear coat on the water tower.
Remodeling old Kroger site
The council followed the workshop with a joint meeting with the Tomball Economic Development Corporation. The meeting was to talk about a proposal to help redevelop much of the old Kroger shopping center.
Kenneth Katz, of BK 2920 Ltd., the group proposing the redevelopment, spoke to the combined group about concerns aired during a previous executive session. Meetings for the proposed 380 agreement between TEDC and the developers have been in closed session, so it isn't clear as to how much the TEDC or Tomball has been asked to either kick in, or credit, however, several line item numbers came out at the open portion of this meeting.
Katz said he was there to answer three concerns council members previously expressed. He said the council expressed concerns about commissions to real estate brokers, the fee to developers and contingency costs. From information made public the construction costs of the redevelopment and remodel are expected to be just less than $5 million.
Katz also suggested that a council concern about the types of retailers in the development could be alleviated with a list of what types of retailers are not allowed.
"The catalyst to good retail development is a great retail store," Katz said, who said that Party City is one of the possible tenants they have reached out to, as well as Spec's.
The group then moved into executive session to discuss the matter further.
Signs, Signs, Everywhere Signs
After the joint session adjourned, the council members and the mayor gathered for the regular council meeting.
New city planner Rebeca Guerra talked about her review of the city's sign regulations and presented recommendations to the council. She also sought council input on several items as well.
Guerra suggested adding 12 new categories to the sign ordinance, which included aircraft signs, awning, banner, billboard, flag, inflatable, living or human, message board, premise, temporary, window and wayfinding.
Revisions suggested were that organized community events not be forced to get a permit for event signs, as well as several others. The new category for flag signs drew some heated conversation. This revision would exempt government flags from ordinance requirements, but restrict all other flags.
"Religious flags should also be allowed (exempt)," Councilman Derek Townsend said.
"If we start limiting people to what flags they can fly we will have big problems," Councilman Mark Stoll added.
"This is one of the issues that staff is looking for council guidance on where you want to go," Guerra said.
The conversation about the sign ordinance was long, but lead to the new planner learning what direction the council would like to take.
"It was very productive," she said.
In other business the council approved, on first reading, a proposal to place a feed store on the east side of SH 249 north of Hirschfield Road. The property currently has an automotive shop on the premises.
Finally the council approved public hearing dates for the 2013-14 budget. The hearings will be held during the Aug. 6 and Aug. 20 council meetings.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
I like it. Might be tempted to switch to a balanced lug, instead of the standing lug, but otherwise looks sweet.

Balanced lug/standing lug. I've never understood the advantages and disadvantages. I'm building a 13" plywood/frame rowing skiff based on plan 002 from the Hampton Mariner's Museum and I was planning on a standing lug of about 72 sq. ft. (based on Daisy--Woodenboat issues 126-7). Would a balanced lug be a better choice? Why? Thanks for any thoughts.
I like the big rubrail, the pram bow for towing and the sail rig option. Doug Hylan draws very nice boats. Rick
They have some pretty amazing virtues too. The RIB prototypes were wood and coolThe new generation of rigid bottom inflatables, or RIBs have some additional vices.
Doug designed D'Anna in WB 225 as a pure powerboat so he's not that committed against polluting.several varieties of pollution sound, air, water and have a tendency to foster questionable skylarking by bored youngsters. And recently, mankind has discovered that burning petroleum might just have another big drawback as well

Economies as they are, I'd think we should refrain from slinging mud at a designer for his perceived marketing tactics or concepts of design. Something tells me he designs what he gets paid to design, and occasionally does work for his own preferences. If someone handed you 3 months operating costs for your business to build a stinkpot when you have no other work, are you going to thumb your nose at them because you don't like engines?
Let's not be so absurd Gents.
Nothing against the designer and nothing against the design, I had to laugh after reading the marketing description and seeing the good reviews. New designs are always good but there is no shortage of anti-rib designs out there many of them predate ribs by decades.
Reminds me of one of my own as-yet unbuilt designs. If I ever do build it, I'm going to change the daggerboard to make it a little wider. The boat isn't fast enough for that narrow chord.
The mast may need come aft a few inches as well. I'd always intended to sail it before finalizing everything.
Nice boat John, I see you are using a more modern rudder too, Doug Hylan's harks back to the late 1800's
I think Oonagh is a really rather nice design. She would be a lot of fun in the Keyhaven Salt Marshes... except for.....the non lifting rudder blade and the dagger board. There is so much fun to be had sailing around the marshes, cutting across very shallow sections knowing that the rudder and board will lift ok. A dagger and non lifting rudder would be such a bore in these situations.
Solving the lifting rudder is easy enough, and if the central storage dagger case assembly was extended back a little, there would be room for a pivoting centreboard and the larger central storage would be useful as a picnic table, as well as extra storage and buoyancy.
In the rear section two side benches would make sailing upwind more comfortable and these could slide inboard, supported by the back of the central tank and the fore edge of the rear storage. That would produce a sleeping platform, for day naps or overnight sleeping.
Rig a hoop tent, canvas wagon type, and what a great little marshes explorer. A sort of lightweight "inshore" protected waters version of SCAMP.
Nice, but does it have any real advantages over a simpler build such as Michalaks Piccup pram? A well sorted wee boat with a cockpit big enough to sleep in,masses of bouyancy/lockers and my choice for a protected water one man camp cruiser,a lot of fun for the money/build time. Cheers
The last pram I spent any length of time was a Sea Shell, a design from the 1950s. My dad built two of them in our basement, one as a dinghy for the family sailboat and the other, with a sail, etc., for me. I liked the boat and had a great time with an old Johnson 3 hp on it also.
I've seen the Nutshells, but haven't been in one, and they look very nice in their rowing and sailing configurations. Joel White's eye of course.
This past fall I got to use this one by Paul Gartside. I was impressed by how much it seemed to have the characteristics (stability, light weight, adequate flotation, easily towed) of the typical inflatable, yet was more boat-like and pleasant to row. Of course it wouldn't fly on a plane like a hard bottom inflatable might, but I don't care for that anyway. I'm guessing the Hylan design is similar in the flesh, although longer.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
If Doug Hylan is reading this. I was lucky enough to volunteer at the old National Sailing centre in Cowes at the tail end of the RIB testing program, the Avon Searider had been developed and it filled the role perfectly, although it ate engines. There wasone RIB that had a hull a lot like a Fireball, narrow and scow like. Man, that thing could fly, it had a small outboard and had ultimate stability because of the sponsons and it never went into production. It probably pounded, it would not have affected me, I was in my early 20's and stupid. It was the most popular boat amongst the staff.
I always thought that model would have made a good build it yourself tender. Low profile when deflated, you'd have to hinge the transom. It could be unsinkable, self bailing and rowable, sailing would be a stretch. Just a thought and I wanted to counter my negativity
That sail really isn't a standing lugsail (although at some point the distinction gets rather fuzzy). It's rigged more like a balanced lug with the mast/boom intersection shifted very far toward the front of the boom. In a true standing lug configuration, the sail could be used either with or without a boom and the boom (if present) would usually be attached to the aft side of the mast using jaws or a gooseneck. The sail's tack corner would usually be attached either to the boom jaws, gooseneck or directly to the mast, not to the end of the boom out ahead of the mast. A balanced lug always has a boom, extending ahead of the mast and the tack corner is attached to the boom. Boom to mast attachment may be a side-mounted jaw, a parrel, or in some cases, nothing at all other than tension on the downhaul (pulls the boom both downward and aft).
In use, the balanced lug tends to be self-vanging, limiting upper sail twist and keeping the sail working from top to bottom as it swings like a barn door. The standing lug is not self-vanging. This allows the boom's aft end to lift more and the upper part of the sail to twist to leeward as a depowering tool in a blow. There can be a rather big difference in just how much sail area is catching wind at a given moment between the two types and neither is really right or wrong. Sail twist can be both good and bad, depending on the conditions.
Standing Lugsail
Balanced Lugsail
How well do you think Hylan's new design will sail? I've liked Atkin's Little Peter design and wanted to build one for years now, but I've felt it would not be stable enough for 2 to stand and move around in, which is what I want. This has a lot more beam. So, will she be stable enough to stand and poll? How well do boats like this sail?
I think she will sail very well. She is about the same length, beam and sail area as our Scows which sail very well.
SCAMP sails very well with her pram bow, I understand that her balanced waterlines allow this. In the UK we have over 70,000 Mirror dinghies sailing about this size which also have pram bows.
Oonagh is larger forward than our Scows, so roomier "bigger" if you will and she does look stable for moving around. Will also be stable for climbing into and out off.
Tender or stand alone mini yachts?
What's going on here?
I cannot recall seeing a single 12' sailing pram being used as a yacht tender.
Cruisers do not hate their RIBS, they love them , and their 15hp Yammies!
There are hundreds of 12' Scows around here - all along the Solent shores. They were designed as tenders to the large yachts which in the old days could not get into Lymington River, so crews sailed out, dropped the rig into the boat and left them on the mooring while they went sailing. A good sized tender to get from jetty to mooring is a really useful thing. Perhaps a little too big for cruising with, but great as your home base and local cruising tender.
Many local people still use their Scows as tenders.
Well I've ordered the Oonagh plans and I'm going to put my Bay River Skiff up for sale. Hopefully I can collect enough to build Oonagh and buy a trailer for my shanty boat.
Well done and congratulations SScoville, good luck with your build and please post what you can of your progress.
Well the plans arrived yesterday and they very well done, consistent with what others here say about Hylan's plans. I have a question about glued lap construction. Do the planks maintain the same bevel from bow to stern? Thus, if the plan shows a bevel of 3/4 inches for a plank at station 3, does that mean that edge of the plank takes a 3/4" bevel it's full length?
This is a lot of boat. Hylan says in the plans that prams are often thought of a way to build a moderate size boat in a small package and that Oonagh is a big boat in a moderate package.
In respect to RIBS: everybody enjoys the look and idea of a traditional sailing dinghy but get caught out in a sudden blow when you are on a simple milk run
and you change your tune fast. RIBS are basic tools of cruising, and a 12' sailing dinghy is not easily handled on board eve a 50 foot boat, so that argument is somewhat moot. Notwithstanding, no doubt this is a nice boat for the right owner with a need for what it offers.
No kidding.

I love this style because it fits my head well being that you offer it in Petite. Some think that it is my own hair even with the synthetic version after I comb it even more to fit my face. I get a lot of compliments on this wig.

Simple practical and very comfortable layer under my main cycling jacket. There are more stylish jerseys out there (and with pockets) but this is good value for money and under the windproof layer you don't really need pockets and who's to see it anyway? Two for one deal means I can have one in the wash, but it should dry quickly anyway. Really good buy all round - let's hope it lasts well too.

I've now bought several of these and use them both as pyjama tops and base layer T-shirts. Really thin (good for layers) and lightweight, but very soft and keep you warm without being hot. Great product - best T-shirt I've ever had. Might well buyy some more to put in the cupboard for when these wear out!!
12/07/2012 08:36:59
Got this for my husband who bikes to work and needs to be seen on these roads and this does that very well, though he does say when his arms are stetched out on the bike the sleeves are a little short. Great all the same.
21/03/2013 22:02:11
So far I've worn this as an under-garment working outside in freezing conditions, by itself walking 15 miles with a rucksack and even playing squash for an hour - and I can't fault it.
21/10/2013 01:55:49
Excellent quality and fits as expected. The colors match the image presented on-line. Light weight and quick drying as advertised. Very pleased with this product.
16/03/2013 14:01:51
i would recommend this item as it worked. I am a bit of a fossil when it comes to modern equipment and i must say i was very impressed, i'm not easly impressed.
14/04/2013 12:43:28
Brought as a present for my son. It fitted really well and does exactly what it's supposed to do, he wears it everytime he goes running. Washes well.
20/09/2013 17:07:53
Have only worn this once, but it is a comfortable fit, has excellent high viz performance and kept me warm on a 20 mile ride in cool conditions.
30/09/2012 17:53:37
Extremely good value and the buy one get one free promo was a brilliant opportunity to get an additional garment
21/06/2013 09:41:55
Very comfortable and light weight, ideal to wera as a first layer or top layer. Good visibility and well made.
06/03/2013 17:39:58
Excellent hi vis tee for running or cycling. Not keen on the v neck but at this price it has to be worthwhile
26/09/2013 11:57:37
I was looking for long sleeved high viability cycling tops for my husband. This fitted the bill perfectly.
03/11/2013 01:01:38
This product provides a really good base layer for use beneath heavier outer clothing during cold weather.
10/07/2012 19:25:06
Price for this item was reasonable but brilliant when i also got the short sleeve shirt for nothing !
04/10/2013 23:31:10
My husband is now a convert to these types of tops. Long sleeves and lightweight, so ideal for him.
29/07/2012 09:17:56
Good fluorescent top, at an affordable price - if it had back pockets it would be amazing
17/03/2013 05:26:50
Running is one of hobbies so when I run late evening it keeps me warm and covered up.
22/01/2013 12:36:02
Comfy and breathable and good 'wicking' - very effective on a long cycle in December
18/08/2013 14:40:09
seem very comparable with other brands which cost much more and do the same job.
19/04/2013 22:04:49
Great shirt, I would definately buy more of these. Very good wicking qualities

This article is part of WikiProject Definitions. Consider editing to improve it. View articles referencing this definition. |
A write-down is what occurs when a company reduces the value of an asset on their books. This results in a charge against earnings. For instance, if a company has a building on their books valued at $1,000,000 but an internal audit reveals that its market value is actually $800,000, this would result in a $200,000 write-down which would be deducted from reported earnings. Successive increases in value of the same asset would be charged to earnings.
Many of the consequences of the subprime crisis at financial institutions in 2007 and 2008 are referred to as a "write-down", which is similar to a "write-off". While a write-down decreases the value of an asset in the company's balance sheet, a write-off completely eliminates the value of the loan from the balance sheet. Many companies during the subprime mortgage crisis had a combination of both write-offs and write-downs.
The term write-off (or write-down) describes a reduction in recognized value. In accounting terminology, it refers to recognition of the reduced or zero value of an asset. In income tax statements, it refers to a reduction of taxable income as recognition of certain expenses required to produce the income. Write-off is also used in vehicle insurance to describe a vehicle which is cheaper to replace than to repair, sometimes known as being a totaled car (a total write-off).
Contents |
In income tax calculation, a write-off is the itemized deduction of an item's value from one's taxable income. Thus, if a person has a taxable income of $50,000 per year, a $100 telephone for business use would lower the taxable income to $49,900. If that person is in a 25% tax bracket, the tax due would be lowered from $7,481 to $7,456. Thus the net cost of the telephone is $75 instead of $100.
In business accounting, the term write-off is used to refer to an investment (such as a purchase of salable goods) for which a return on the investment is now impossible or unlikely. The item's potential return is thus canceled and removed from ("written off") the business's balance sheet. Common write-offs in retail include spoiled and damaged goods.
Similarly, banks write off bad debt that is declared noncollectable (such as a loan on a defunct business or a credit card due that is now in default), removing it from their balance sheets.
A negative write-off is the opposite of a write-off. That is, it is term used to refer to an overpayment amount that will not be refunded to the individual or organization that has overpaid on a claim. Negative write-offs can sometimes be seen as fraudulant activity because those who overpay a claim or bill are not informed that they have overpaid and are not given any chance to reconcile their overpayment or be refunded.
Some institutions such as banks, hospitals, universities, and other large organizations regularly perform negative write-offs, especially when the amount that is considered low dollar, i.e. $5.00 at some places or up to $15.00 or more at others.[citation needed]
A write-down is an accounting treatment that recognizes the reduced value of an impaired asset. The value of an asset may change due to fundamental changes in technology or markets. One example is when one company purchases another and pays more than the net book value of its assets and liabilities. The excess purchase price is recorded on the buying company's accounts as goodwill. If it becomes apparent that the purchased company no longer has the value recorded in the goodwill account (it can't be resold at the same price), the value in the goodwill asset account is "written down".
A write-down is sometimes considered synonymous with a write-off.[1] The distinction is that while a write-off is generally completely removed from the balance sheet, a write-down leaves the asset with a lower value.[2] As an example, one of the consequences of the 2007 subprime crisis at financial institutions was a revaluation under mark to market rules:
In the television sitcom Seinfeld Kramer and Jerry discuss the topic using a circular logic:
Jerry: "So we're going to make the post office pay for my new stereo now?"
Kramer: "It's a write-off for them."
Jerry: "How is it a write-off?"
Kramer: "They just write it off."
Jerry: "Write it off what?"
Kramer: "Jerry, all these big companies- they write off everything."
Jerry: "You don't even know what a write-off is."
Kramer: "Do you?"
Jerry: "No. I don't"
Kramer: "But they do. And they're the ones writing it off."

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
A A+F Diversity: Individuals are beautiful because of their diversities, I've met lifelong friends of all different backrounds and personal beliefs.
C A+F Athletics: For those that assume the role and play with passion, it's an enjoyable part of school.
C A+F Greek Life: I am not involved in Greek Life.
C A+F Off-Campus Housing: Freedom is always worth it. :-)
Campus Dining: I do not utilize campus dining.
B A+F Guys & Girls: Being involved in your university will likely surround you with like-minded dating opportunities. Aside from the unavoidable select few, I am confident and pleased with the social setting at this school.
D A+F Transportation: Public Transportation is an area they really need to improve. The light rail essentially goes nowhere and taxi's can get expensive considering how far everything can be.
D A+F Drug Safety: The drug culture is pretty bad at ASU. To be fair, they are trying vigilantly to stop it as much as possible.
C A+F Campus Housing: Campus housing is usually just offered to freshman.
C A+F Off-Campus Dining: Many options but ASU doesn't exactly promote healthy eating around their campus. You'll have a difficult time finding anything except fast-food chains off campus.
A A+F Overall Experience: I am so glad that I chose to go to Barrett. The community is amazing and I've met so many interesting people. I've also had some really interesting classes and I've learned more than I expected to in college so far. Going to Barrett is one of the best decisions I've ever made.
C A+F Greek Life: There aren't any frat houses at ASU anymore, but there is still Greek housing in some of the on-campus apartments. Frats throw wild parties at the off-campus apartments pretty frequently, but parties get busted pretty fast. It is definitely not necessary to join Greek life to have a fulfilling social life.
B A+F Diversity: Barrett is whiter than the rest of the university, but there is still plenty of diversity in ethnicity, economic status, sexual orientation, etc.
B A+F Off-Campus Housing: Most people live off campus. There are several luxury apartment complexes immediately off campus like The District, The Hub, etc. but these are super expensive and there are parties constantly. Lots of people live in houses near campus which are pretty cheap and not the best quality, but they get the job done.
A A+F Athletics: Sports are huge at ASU, and especially for football of course. The games can be pretty wild, but they are still a lot of fun.
A A+F Facilities: ASU has a beautiful and well-maintained campus. The recent SDFC addition is amazing, but the weight room still gets crowded during peak times. The SDFC also provides Devil-X group fitness classes which are pretty reasonably priced ($60/semester or $15/month for unlimited classes) and fun.
A A+F Facilities: One really outstanding part of ASU is Barrett. Barrett is ASU's honors college, and it has its own mini campus in the corner of ASU's campus. The residential experience is awesome because you get to spend pretty much all day, every day with intelligent and interesting people. Furthermore, Barrett provides a lot of additional opportunities and personal attention. Barrett literally has a staff dedicated to make students' lives better and more fulfilling. There are people to help you find internships and research opportunities, people who set up free and fun programs for students (e.g. they bring in therapy dogs during finals), and lots more. Barrett is easily my favorite thing about ASU.
B A+F Off-Campus Dining: Lots of students go to Mill on the weekends, and there are lots of restaurants on and around Mill. You can easily walk or bike there.
A A+F Guys & Girls: Since ASU is such a big school, there is tons of diversity in guys and girls. There are plenty of frat bros who spend their days lifting at the SDFC and stereotypical sorority girls. I'm in Barrett, and the guys and girls are generally smarter as one might expect, but Barrett students are generally still friendly and fun. Both the guys and girls are good looking. There is a decent chunk of people in serious relationships; some are new and some are leftover from high school. If you're a freshman coming to ASU, you should avoid staying in a relationship with a high schooler unless you seriously think you're going to get married or something.
B A+F Health & Safety: There are intermittent safety scares, but its easy to avoid most dangerous situations/crimes if you use common sense. For example, always make sure to lock your door (and your bike), and walking with a friend if you're out late at night can't really hurt.
B A+F Transportation: The light rail and valley metro buses are fairly convenient and easy to use, but they take a lot more time than driving. The buses are usually early or late or don't show up at all. Fortunately, its only $1-$2 per ride.
C A+F Parking: I do not have a car on campus and I don't think its really worth the cost of a $700+ permit and gas money. The light rail is cheap and very easy to master, but it is not very fast. There are also multiple bus stops around campus, but the buses rarely run on schedule. A car is probably worth it if you go home frequently or live off campus, but otherwise its not really worth the cost.
C A+F Scholarships: I was not eligible for need based aid, but I did get the Presidential Scholarship, which is an automatic award based on test scores and GPA. As an out of state student, this was the only scholarship I was able to get since options are quite limited for non-Arizona residents. Still, ASU is still cheaper for me than most of my other options.
B A+F Academics: I'm in Molecular Biosciences/Biotechnology. It's in the School of Life Sciences and its a very small program, but its great if you want to do research or get involved in the biotech industry. The major covers most/all of the premed requirements if that's what you're looking for.
B A+F Academics: The professors can be hit or miss, but if you do your research beforehand you will usually be fine. Academics are really what you make of them. As with any other school, if you don't put any effort into your education, you won't get much out of it, and you can't blame that on professors.

Written by Jade Riley
Though some students are occasionally discouraged by the school's sub-par academic reputation, the lure of all manner of social temptations, or the University's confounding and convoluted bureaucracy, most discover those feelings to be only temporary. Any student with a capacity for commitment and initiative, as well as a certain social aptitude, can tell you that Arizona State is a terrific environment in which to achieve the sort of growth, both personal and academic, that is expected of a college education. ASU is a large school with a diverse culture and a lot of great people. Students feel that they have met people that have all changed their lives in some way. It's agreed that there are endless things to do here, and there are never-ending possibilities and opportunities as well.
For many, college is all about breaking away and living your own life; that can be hard if ASU is around the corner from your parent's house. Still, there is amazing opportunity for growth and learning here, and even if you are from the local area, it's possible to break away and get caught up in the separate world that lives within ASU. While the Greek life here is nothing to brag about, parking sucks, and the campus police are kind of a pain in the butt, ASU students still have plenty to be thankful for. If you want a place that has what seems like infinite sunshine, the best nightlife and social scene you could ever ask for, and a wealth of academic choices and opportunities, then ASU just might be your school. In the heart of a growing city, Arizona State in Tempe has been a wonderful and special experience for many. As a native of Arizona, I'd long taken ASU for granted. But it's a great place if you come for the right reasons and pursue the things that you love. It may take a few years to figure out where you belong, so give yourself the chance. ASU is a great place for meeting new people and stumbling, sometimes quite literally, into adventure. I urge you to visit ASU and see for yourself, and if you are still so inclined, buy the ticket and take the ride.

Iron Mountain Bureau Reporter
NIAGARA, WI -- While the phrase "sleigh ride" conjures up images and emotions of Christmastime, many people may not know that they can still embark on a charming, brisk adventure here in the U.P.
Bjorkman's Horse Outings in Niagara offers sleigh and cutter rides throughout the entire winter season.
"We really enjoy having people come, and we get to meet lots of people from all over the country," said owner, Dick Bjorkman. "They come for sleigh rides and covered wagon trips in the summertime."
What once was a practical means of transportation is now an experience that exemplifies the beauty of the outdoors.
Some of the Norwegian Fjord horses that pull the sleighs have been in the family for over a decade.
"This one is Ivan, he's five years old," explained owner, Angie Bjorkman, "and this one is Ole, he's 16 years old."
The major difference between a cutter sleigh and a regular sleigh is simply the size. The cutter sleigh can hold up to 2 people, but the regular sleigh can hold up to 14 people. Both options still only require the strength of the two horses.
And even though Christmas is still the most popular time to ride, "in February, we usually get a lot of Valentine's rides," Angie said. "Sweetheart rides."
That means there will always be an excuse to bundle up, hop on a sleigh, and enjoy a peaceful excursion.

Hydraulic connection is required only while changing fixtures. Fixtures can be transfered to different machines or inspection tables while maintaining the same datum points.
The Zero-Point Quick-Change Mounting System requires all fixtures to have Locating Posts installed underneath. Fixtures should generally have one Zero-Point Locating Post and one Relieved Locating Post. Floating Posts can be added as required to provide additional clamping force without location.

Countryside Council for Wales Landscape & wildlife Please note - A new body, Natural Resources Wales has taken over all functions and services previously carried out by Countryside Council for Wales. While the Natural Resources Wales website continues to be developed, some online services will continue to be provided on this web site.
Wales is home to a vast range of species. However, the destruction of habitats and the invasion of non-native species present major challenges.
Wales is rightly proud of its abundance of wildlife, with important species such as the iconic Snowdon lily. Yet its biodiversity has been reduced by human activity.
The Welsh countryside underwent huge changes in the 20th century:
The impact of these changes on many species was catastrophic. Agriculturally improved grassland – now accounting for nearly half the area of Wales – contains so few plant species that it supports little wildlife.
5 of the butterfly species in Wales died out in the last century. Other species such as brown hares, water voles and lapwings declined enormously.
Wales's biodiversity is further threatened by invasive non-native species. For example, the rhododendron prevents sapling trees from growing. Without young trees, broad-leaved woodland – one of our richest wildlife habitats – cannot survive.
The break up of remaining habitats into fragments has taken its toll on wildlife. Sadly, small fragments of habitat invariably support fewer of their associated plants and animals than larger areas.
Natura 2000 Monitoring Workshop: Nature, Pictures and People This joint Eurosite-CCW workshop, delivered in English, will focus on monitoring methods for terrestrial Natura 2000.

OTTUMWA, IOWA -- The Ottumwa Fire Department is once again reaching out to the community, asking for donations for their annual Operation Sparky Claus program.
The program is a way to get new, unwrapped toys, to needy children in the Ottumwa area through various service organizations.
Last year, the community generously donated hundreds of toys to the program, and the department is hoping that once again the community will support the program.
"We got to help several charities last year such as the Salvation Army, SIEDA, Women's Crisis Center and we also helped the Working Man's Christmas and the Ottumwa Food Bank," said Firefighter Josh Chance with the Ottumwa Fire Department.
"You can bring a new, unwrapped toy, 24 hours a day to the central fire station all the way up to December 20th. Just ring the front door bell and somebody will come out; and if you have a little one with you, we will give them a tour of the trucks and usually they will leave with a sticker or helmet," Chance added.
For more information on the program, contact the Ottumwa Fire Department at 641-683-0666.

Youssou N'Dour: I Bring What I Love
As one of two major documentaries on hotly debated Senegalese world musician Youssou N'Dour to emerge within a year of one another (see also Youssou N'Dour: Return to Gorée), this particular chronicle was produced and shot over a period of several years. Helmed by director Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, it witnesses the evolution and production of N'Dour's June 2004 album Egypt, on the Nonesuch label -- the recording that details N'Dour fully expressing his newfound Muslim faith. A veritable bedrock of controversy, the album courted objections from multiple countries: Americans objected because of their post-9/11 tendencies to attribute Islam to violent extremism; Senegalese DJs and radio-station proprietors objected given the odd discomfiture associated with playing religious music about Allah alongside often-racy selections by other acts. Even more significantly, N'Dour inadvertently carried this controversy a step further by performing live during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan -- thus infuriating Senegalese religious conservatives. The film witnesses N'Dour confronting these challenges head-on and, incredibly, surmounting them with great ease and finesse. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Youssou N'Dour: Return to Gorée
This unique "road documentary" finds Youssou N'Dour, a vocalist from Senegal, undertaking a transcontinental journey and traveling the routes of 19th century American slaves. Guided by the blind Tunisian pianist Moncef Genoud, N'Dour gravitates from Atlanta to New Orleans to the Big Apple, then leaves the United States for Europe and visits Bordeaux, France, and Luxembourg, meanwhile performing his jazz- and gospel-influenced songs constantly. The film witnesses N'Dour rehearsing with an extensive series of musicians and preparing for a final concert in Gorée. That locale (an island off of Senegal's coast) attains particularly strong thematic relevance, geographically situated as it was at the crossroads of slave routes between Europe and Africa. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

A South African mercenary and a Mende fisherman find their fates forever intertwined as they embark on a quest to obtain a rare and highly coveted pink diamond in director Edward Zwick's frantic adventure drama. Ripped from his family farm and forced to toil away in the sweltering South African diamond fields, Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou) discovered an extraordinary rough stone of immeasurable value. Danny Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a hired gun who specializes in the sale of so-called "blood diamonds" that are used to finance rebellions and terrorist organizations, and is currently serving time for smuggling. As a bloody civil war rages in Sierra Leone and Archer learns that Vandy has safely hidden the diamond in a place where no one would ever suspect, the pair enlist the aid of disillusioned American journalist Maddy Bowen (Jennifer Connelly) in recovering the treasure that has the power to save Vandy's family and provide the desperate Archer with a much-needed chance for redemption. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

One man's role in the long battle to outlaw slavery in the United Kingdom sets the stage for this historical drama from director Michael Apted. In 1784, 21-year-old William Wilberforce (Ioan Gruffudd) was elected to the British House of Commons, and soon established himself as a politician with a conscience. Several years later, his close friend William Pitt (Benedict Cumberbatch) became prime minister, and together they made a bold plan to introduce a bill banning slavery before the English legislature. Wilberforce was aided by anti-slavery activists Olaudah Equiano (Youssou N'Dour) and Thomas Clarkson (Rufus Sewell); however, pro-slavery hard-liners Lord Tarleton (Ciarán Hinds) and the Duke of Clarence (Toby Jones) spearheaded a hard-fought opposition to the legislation, and despite Wilberforce's best efforts, his bill went down in defeat. In 1797, Wilberforce left politics due to poor health and a battered spirit; staying at the country home of his friends Henry and Marianne Thornton (Nicholas Farrell and Sylvestra Le Touzel), he became acquainted with Barbara Spooner (Romola Garai), a beautiful woman with progressive views. Spooner became deeply infatuated with Wilberforce, and she encouraged him not to give up on his noble goals; with her help, Wilberforce launched a second campaign to persuade England's lawmakers to end the slave trade. Amazing Grace made its North American premiere as the closing-night gala attraction at the 2006 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Some of the most respected names in pop music were on hand, including Bruce Springsteen, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Peter Gabriel, Alanis Morissette, Tracy Chapman, Radiohead, Youssou N'dour, Asian Dub Foundation and Shania Twain.

This fanciful, animated feature from French artist and director Michel Ocelot is based on a popular folk tale from West Africa. Kirikou (voice of Theo Sebeko) informs his mother from the womb that it's time for him to be born, but when she's too slow, he simply does the work himself. After learning that his parents' village is being threatened by a sorceress with a taste for human flesh, Kirikou leaps into action to save the day, encountering friends and foes along the way, including a monster who can drain waterfalls and lakes with his enormous thirst and a wise man living on a magic mountain. Kirikou and the Sorceress also features an original score by acclaimed Senegalese musician Youssou N'Dour. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Secret Policeman's Third Ball
Music and comedy share the stage in this performance film, which records a four-night variety show presented in 1987 as a benefit for the human rights organization Amnesty International. A handful of top British comedians were on hand for the revue, including Stephen Fry & Hugh Laurie, Lenny Henry, Ben Elton and Phil Cool, with special appearances by John Cleese of Monty Python and the puppet troupe Spitting Image. (American comic Emo Phillips also performs his standup act.) Several leading musical stars of the day also contributed their talents to the event, including Peter Gabriel, Duran Duran, Kate Bush with David Gilmour, Lou Reed, Jackson Browne with Paul Brady, Mark Knopfler with Chet Atkins, Bob Geldoff, Youssou N'Dour and Nik Kershaw. As the title suggests, The Secret Policeman's Third Ball was preceded by two other Amnesty International benefit shows coordinated by John Cleese, with several more to follow. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Just a day after WSP, Galactic, Gov't Mule and Assembly of Dust were announced, Umprey's McGee confirmed on their website that they'll be joining the party as well.
While none of these are my favorite jambands necessarily, for fans of the genre, this is a great sign of things to come.
Umphrey's McGee is scheduled to launch several songs for the brand new Rock Band Network platform upon its release early this year. This new system will allow fans of the band to dig into the music in ways they have never been able to before.
Umphreys McGee has been working with former Harmonix Music Systems employee Andrew Buch, an alumni of Berklee College of Music, to author several songs for the program, including 1348 and Miss Tinkles Overture." Andrew, whose claims-to-fame include the underground release of his mind-numbingly difficult "Trippolette" in the original Guitar Hero, has worked on several games in the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises and was a likely choice to prepare the music of Umphrey's McGee for the game. More of his work can be found at www.andrewbuch.com, including video footage of both Umphrey's McGee's music and the Rock Band network re-release of "Trippolette."
Songs will be available to purchase on the Xbox 360 within the next few months, upon public release of the Rock Band Network. For the full story of the Rock band Network, visit Billboard.com and mashable.com. For further information please visit The Rock Band Network.

Wow, what a difference from run of the mill, (less expensive) food processors. The quality is so obvious it is like using another type of appliance from previous food processors we have owned. Easy to connect parts when using, no fumbling around with trying to get things to line up so it will run. So happy to have found it at Overstock for a great price. Wish I had bought it sooner.
I ordered this on Monday and received it on Wednesday. Washed it, used it and I'm very pleased with it. I replaced a La Machine food processor that I've had for 25 years. This is a terrific replacement....providing it lasts as long as my first one did. The booklet offers lots of instruction which I thought was a bit much but it really helped and was worth the read. Lots of good options.
It seems like everything I cook I need to chop or blend. I've never even used a food processor so I was a little anxious about buying. I'm a believer now! It's quiet, fast and the bruchetta that people always ask me to make that used to take 45 minutes, I can now make in about 5 and I've used it for several other things since.
This food processor is heavy duty and looks nice on the counter. So far we've used it for slicing vegetables and cheeses and it does a really nice job. Huge time saver compared to slicing with a knife. It takes just a little time to determine how much pressure to use on each item as some need a little more than others. I'm looking forward to many years of use. I will be buying a additional slicing blade as I do like some things sliced a little thicker. Everything is very easy to clean and the plastic pieces can go in the dishwasher. Highly recommend!
This thing is awesome! We used to have an old antiquated processor and replaced it with this one and let me tell you it was worth every penny. Its easy to use, to clean up and in general makes cooking prep a breeze. If you don't have one I highly suggest you get one.
I love this food processor. It puts my old one to shame. Cuts through food items easily. Looks good. I like the safety features also.
I have used Cuisinarts since they came on the market and I have worn out a few over the years. This model is the best so far. It is more powerful and seems to work more efficiently. Every time I use it, I am happy with my purchase.
This is my first food processor and I must have looked at a hundred of them before choosing this one. I don't know how I did without it. It has a special place on my counter as I use it almost daily. I have used it for a lot of harder vegatables and had no problems with the power. Took less then a minute to fine grate 4 large sweet potatoes. I was amazed. It also makes great bread dough and pizza dough! My one wish is that it was actual brushed stainless. It is plastic with a too shiney painted coating. It looks and cleans up nice and is durable but a little to shiney to blend in with my appliances. Still a great buy and a great addtion to my kitchen.
I like this food processor. It's not terribly loud, the blades are heavy duty and the stainless steel look is nice. My one suggestion would be to include a manual instead of a 30+ minute commercial DVD.
This food processor is great on everything I've tried using it for. It is easy to assemble and when finished it is easy to clean. No problems so far.

Djuice & Redbull Street Style Football – Karachi
Djuice & Redbull Street Style Football tournament kicked off in Karachi last night. The event looked promising, and its about time that such brands are taking initiatives and bringing an urban sports culture in Pakistan. It is a World Wide football tournament and 16 best football freestylers from Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad had to compete it out to fly to South Africa to face global competition in the Redbull Street Style 2010.
The following is a pre-event practice video by one of the participants:
It is an amazing step by brand teams to introduce Pakistani talent internally as well as globally and as per my anticipation, there is a lot more to come in the coming years. I was not able to stay at the event for a long time and hence the following are the pictures that I was able to gather. Will update you with more once I get more confirmation about the winner and pictures. Geo Super was covering the event.

New on STN: Patent full-text database PCTFULL now with unique numeric property search
05. Mai 2011
Numerical search in the full-texts of WIPO patent applications now enables users to search for chemical and physical properties / Reloaded database offers much more content like names, addresses and full-text in various languages
Karlsruhe, May 2011 - Comprehensive and current patent information is indispensable in order to avoid costly duplicate research, to protect proprietary know-how, to secure competitive advantages, and to ensure a company's innovative power. Patent databases on STN are key information resources for determining patentability, state of the art, infringement, and the legal status of patents.
PCTFULL, the full-text database of PCT* patent applications issued under the auspices of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), contains more than 1.8 million records and more than 1.3 million images which are predominantly drawings from the patent application front page. The file covers the time period 1978 to the present and is updated weekly.
FIZ Karlsruhe has developed a unique search feature for STN which offers not only improved identification of claims and detailed descriptions of the patent applications, but also allows for numeric property searches. FIZ Karlsruhe operates STN, the leading online service for research and patent information, in cooperation with Chemical Abstracts Service (Columbus/OH).
"With the reload of PCTFULL we have not only included additional content but also introduced a new numerical search function which is only offered by STN and enables users to search the English full-text, for example, for substances with a certain molecular weight or certain physical properties", explains Dr. Rainer Stuike-Prill, Vice President Marketing and Sales at FIZ Karlsruhe. "This very complex feature has been developed upon request from our customers. This feature is unique on STN and strengthens its USP."
Doing a key word search in full-text databases usually results in large answer sets with hundreds or thousands of documents. Now it is possible for the first time to limit the search, for example, to particles in the nanoscale (< 100 nm), to catalytic reactions at low temperatures (e.g., -5 to 10°C), to mixtures of a certain percentage range (e.g., 20–30%), and many more applications.
Numeric values and their corresponding units are extracted from the English full-text, normalized and made available for numeric searching. More than 30 physical properties are indexed and searchable, most of them as base or derived SI units. Almost 400 further units and spelling variants are converted to SI units in order to encompass a wider range of retrievable values. Intervals contained in the text are also recognized. "Therefore, a search with 10-20 Kelvin will also generate hits for phrases like, for example, from -260 °C to -235 °C", explains Dr. Michael Schwantner, Head of Data Analysis and New Methods. "And a search with Square Meters will also find documents with the values quoted in Square Inches."

The 24th annual Boomsday Festival has evolved into Knoxville's signature event, bringing more than 400,000 visitors to Knoxville's riverfront for all-American food, a kids' play area, live music, and the biggest boom in the nation for one highly anticipated night each year.
Such is the popularity of Boomsday that National Geographic once filmed it for a special feature.
