Cranial Insertion
From the Frozen Tundra
By Eli Shiffrin, Thijs van Ommen, and Tom Fowler
From the Frozen Tundra
By Eli Shiffrin, Thijs van Ommen, and Tom Fowler
Welcome to this week's Cranial Insertion, from the frozen tundra of Dominaria. No, we're not at Lambeau Field – we're talking about the Coldsnap Prerelease, which took place this past weekend. If you played in it, then I hope you had a good time. If you missed it, then keep an eye out for the Coldsnap Release events, scheduled for the weekend of July 22nd. This week, we'll cover some Coldsnap questions, and also some questions about tournaments in general, since this is a Prerelease weekend. Some of the questions used in this column came from the floor of the Coldsnap Prerelease.
Want us to cover your questions? Then give us a blanket! (OK, that was pretty bad.) Or, you could send the question to [email][email protected][/email]. We'll give you a fairly prompt answer, and might use your question in a future edition of CI. The only easier way to get your name in lights is to be a walking Chia Pet with a love of launching missiles!
(Note that some card images and/or card tags may not work properly until Gatherer or magiccards.info is updated with Coldsnap cards.)
On with the snow . . . er, show.
Q: With the unusual release date of Coldsnap, when does it become tournament legal?
A: Coldsnap will become legal for Constructed play on August 20th. The official release date of the set is July 21st, and you'll start seeing sanctioned Limited events after that time.
Q: What do I do with this deck registration sheet?
A: Filling it out is a smashing idea. Exactly how depends on the type of event you're playing in.
For Constructed events, you'll want to sort your deck by its individual cards. Then record them on the deck registration sheet. Make sure you use English numerals, not tally marks, and the full English name of the card. Your maindeck must be at least 60 cards, and your sideboard must be either 15 or 0. Make sure your name and DCI number are on the sheet at the top; the rest of the information up there isn't really that important, but if you're a completist, go right ahead and fill it out.
For Limited events, you'll get a registration sheet that has all the cards listed on it already. It may be two-sided if more than one set is being used, so make sure you look at the front and the back. Write your name and DCI number in the field marked "Player registering deck." The event might do a deck swap, which means you would probably not be playing with the product you opened. After that, you want to record your cardpool. There are two columns for each card: "Played" and "Total." All of your numbers (numerals again, not tally marks) should go into the "Total" column. Sort the cards by color and by letter as best you can. If the event is doing a deck swap, the product will be collected and passed back out at random.
Once you have the product you'll be playing with, you want to verify that the list you have is accurate. Be sure to check it carefully. Once you've finished checking it, report any mistakes to a judge and have the list corrected. Put your name and DCI number in the field marked "Player using deck." Then you'll need to build your deck. It must be a minimum of 40 cards, including basic lands; everything not in your maindeck is part of your sideboard. Mark the cards you're playing on the sheet by putting the appropriate numbers in the "Played" column. Don't forget to record the number of basic lands you'll be playing.
Once that's done, you're ready to play.
Q: How come I'm not getting an Ice Age tournament pack at this Prerelease?
A: Two reasons. First, Ice Age had no tournament packs. Back then, they were called "starter decks" and contained 60 cards, not 75. The other reason is supply and demand. The number of Ice Age starters is small, and they would cost more than a modern tournament pack because of this. Some tournament organizers are offering individual flights with Ice Age and Alliances (for sealed and draft) for their Prerelease and Release events, but this will vary by TO.
Q: So I got five of the same common out of my five Coldsnap boosters. Can I play all of them?
Now available in a 6-pack for extra suck!
Now available in a 6-pack for extra suck!
A: Yup. In Constructed, this would be problem, but in Limited, you're not bound by the four-of restriction. With the exception of ante cards (and there is one in Ice Age, if you have an event that uses Ice Age product), you can play with whatever you have. If you get five of a card because the sealed pool is five boosters, fee free to play them all. If you drafted six copies of Zephyr Spirit in your RGD draft, and you really want to play them for some reason, go right ahead.
Bonus: The writers take no responsibility for the quality of your deck if you play six copies of Zephyr Spirit.
Q: What's "snow mana?"
A: It's what happens when you tap your lands in a blizzard. Also, it's mana generated from a snow permanent. Snow-covered lands will produce snow mana. Boreal Druid produces when you tap it, but that mana is snow mana. "Snow" isn't a type of mana, just a description. You can't add to your mana pool, and no permanents have in their mana costs, only in the costs of their activated abilities.
Bonus: "Snow" is a supertype, which you may remember as being "Snow-Covered." There are still lands which have "Snow-Covered" in their names, but Snow is the supertype they have now. Snow-Covered lands have become Basic Snow Lands, which means you can put more than four of any of them in your Constructed decks. Other permanents also have the supertype Snow, but there are no special rules associated with this.
Q: So does that mean Thermopod's ability produces snow mana?
A: Yes. It has the ability: "Sacrifice a creature: Add to your mana pool." Because Thermopod is a snow creature, the mana generated by its ability will be snow mana. It doesn't matter if the sacrificed creature was a snow creature or not.
Q: Why does Stalking Yeti's ability say, "if it's in play?"
A: This way, the ability will do nothing if the Yeti is not in play when it resolves. The ability triggers when the Yeti comes into play (note that you must pick the target for the ability at this time, when it goes onto the stack). At that point, both players may play spells and abilities in response to the Yeti's triggered ability. If the Yeti is still in play when its ability resolves, then it and the targeted creature will engage in the gentlemanly art of fisticuffs. If the Yeti is not in play when the ability resolves, nothing happens. (This is also true if the targeted creature is not in play when the Yeti's ability resolves.)
Bonus: When a triggered ability is worded in the format, "When/Whenever/At . . . , if [condition], [effect]," that is called the "intervening if" clause. Standard players will recognize this format on Ebony Owl Netsuke. What the "intervening if" clause means is that the trigger condition must be true both when the ability would go onto the stack and when it would resolve. If it is not true at either of those times, the ability does nothing. See also Oversold Cemetery.
Note the intervening "if."
Note the intervening "if."
Q: My opponent attacks with a 1/1 and plays Resize on it before damage. In response to the Resize, I kill his attacking creature. Does the recover ability on Resize trigger?
A: It doesn't. Let's look at the rules for recover:
502.55a Recover is a triggered ability that functions only while the card with recover is in a player's graveyard. "Recover [cost]" means "When a creature is put into your graveyard from play, you may pay [cost]. If you do, return this card from your graveyard to your hand. Otherwise, remove this card from the game."
The important words up there are "while the card with recover is in a player's graveyard." In order for recover to trigger, the card must be in the graveyard. In this case. Resize is still on the stack, and it will still be on the stack when the erstwhile attacking 1/1 is put into the graveyard. Recover will not trigger.
Q: If my Karplusan Wolverine is blocked by my opponent's Surging Sentinels, can I use its ability to kill the Sentinels before they would deal first strike damage?
A: Yes. The Wolverine's ability triggers whenever it becomes blocked, bub. What this means is that it triggers once the Sentinels have been declared as a blocker. Because this is still inside the declare blockers step, the Sentinels haven't come close to dealing any damage yet. They'll take 1 damage and (barring any responses) die long before they would get to deal their first strike damage.
Q: If my Kjeldoran Javelineer is killed in response to my activating its ability, what happens?
A: It will still deal the appropriate amount of damage to the target creature. Once the ability is on the stack, it is independent of its source. However, the game needs to know something about that source – in this case, the number of age counters that were on it. When this happens, the game will use the object's last known information to determine the number of age counters that were on it just before it left play. This is how the Comp Rules Glossary defines Last Known Information, or LKI:
Last Known Information
The last known information about an object is the information that it had just before it left the zone it was in. Effects from resolving spells and abilities use last known information if the object they require information from isn't in the zone it's expected to be in (unless the effect divides damage).
Q: Does Gelid Shackles counter mana abilities?
A: No, but it does stop them if they're activated mana abilities. A mana ability doesn't use the stack, and thus can't be countered. However, an activated ability that produces mana, like that of Boreal Druid, can be shut down by Gelid Shackles.
Q: What happens if Rimescale Dragon, after putting ice counters on a few creatures, leaves play? What if it later returns to play?
A: Rimescale Dragon has a static ability that prevents creatures with ice counters on them from untapping. This ability will only work while Rimescale Dragon is in play. If it leaves play, creatures with ice counters on them may untap as normal. Note that the ice counters are not removed, since there is no instruction on the Dragon to remove the ice counters when it leaves play.
If Rimescale Dragon later returns to play, creatures with ice counters on them will not untap during their controllers' untap steps.
Bonus: Rimescale Dragon will prevent any creature with an ice counter on it from untapping, regardless of how that creature got an ice counter.
Q: My opponent said I had to choose my targets for Karplusan Minotaur's abilities before I flipped the coins. Was this correct?
A: No, it wasn't. It's true that you choose the target(s) for an ability when you put it onto the stack, which is probably what your opponent was thinking of. Karplusan Minotaur, however, has cumulative upkeep. When the cumulative upkeep trigger resolves, you'll flip some number of coins. Based on the results of those flips, the Minotaur's other abilities will trigger, and you'll put them onto the stack in whatever order you want.
Peep this, from the Coldsnap FAQ:
When Karplusan Minotaur's cumulative upkeep ability resolves, you either flip a number of coins equal to the number of age counters on it, or you sacrifice it. Once you start to flip, you can't stop; you must continue until all flips are made. If you flip, you call heads or tails for each flip. Each time you're right, the Minotaur's second ability triggers. Each time you're wrong, the Minotaur's third ability triggers. The triggers wait until after you're done flipping, then they all go on the stack in whatever order you choose. Each may have a different target.
Q: All right . . . what the devil is cumulative upkeep?
A: It's an ability that will trigger at the beginning of each of your upkeep steps. When the ability resolves, you'll put an age counter on the permanent, then choose either to pay its cumulative upkeep cost for each age counter or sacrifice it. If something has cumulative upkeep , it will cost you , then , then , etc. You always have the option not to pay cumulative upkeep, but once you've started paying, you can't stop in midstream.
Here's some more explanation, from the Coldsnap FAQ:
502.13a Cumulative upkeep is a triggered ability that imposes an increasing cost on a permanent. "Cumulative upkeep [cost]" means "At the beginning of your upkeep, put an age counter on this permanent, then sacrifice this permanent unless you pay [cost] for each age counter on it." If [cost] has choices associated with it, each choice is made separately for each age counter, then either the entire set of costs is paid, or none of them are paid. Partial payments are not allowed.
Example: A creature has "Cumulative upkeep {W} or {U}" and two age counters on it. When its ability next triggers and resolves, the creature's controller puts an age counter on it and may then pay {W}{W}{W}, {W}{W}{U}, {W}{U}{U}, or {U}{U}{U} to keep the creature in play.
502.13b If a permanent has multiple instances of cumulative upkeep, each triggers separately. However, the age counters are not linked to any particular ability; each cumulative upkeep ability will count the total number of age counters on the permanent at the time that ability resolves.
Example: A creature has two instances of "Cumulative upkeep--Pay 1 life." The creature currently has no counters but both cumulative upkeep abilities trigger. When the first ability resolves, the controller adds a counter and then chooses to pay 1 life. When the second ability resolves, the controller adds another counter and then chooses to pay an additional 2 life.
Q: What I have a permanent with cumulative upkeep and another with an "at the beginning of your upkeep" trigger?
A: Then, since you control both triggers, you can put them onto the stack in any order you choose.
Q: What happens if my upkeep step is skipped for some reason?
A: Then cumulative upkeep will never trigger, meaning the permanent won't get an age counter for that turn, and you won't have the choice to pay the cost or sacrifice it.
Q: How does Chisei, Heart of Oceans, interact with cumulative upkeep?
Ooooh, I help reduce cumulative upkeep!
Won't someone play me now!?
Ooooh, I help reduce cumulative upkeep!
Won't someone play me now!?
A: It depends on how you stack the upkeep triggers. If Chisei's trigger resolves first, you'll have to remove a counter from a permanent you control or sacrifice it. If a permanent you control has an age counter on it already, you may remove that age counter to satisfy Chisei's hunger. If you're still waiting for a permanent to get its first age counter, and you have no other counters to remove, then Chisei will search for food in your graveyard.
If you resolve cumulative upkeep first, then you'll put an age counter on the permanent(s), then choose either to pay the upkeep costs or sacrifice them. Let's say you have one permanent with cumulative upkeep, and you just put the first age counter on it. You choose to pay the cost. Now Chisei's ability resolves and he munches on the age counter. Next turn, you do the same thing. The best you can do is have to put one age counter on the permanent and pay one instance of its cumulative upkeep cost.
That's all for this week's installment of Cranial Insertion. Come back next week, when we spend some more time shivering with Coldsnap. At the end of this month, we'll be bringing you questions from the floor of US Nationals, running the gamut from triple Coldsnap draft to Extended.
A final note before we depart: WOTC announced this weekend that several cards which received "power level" errata are being reverted back to their original wordings and/or intents. This list of cards includes Intuition, Palinchron, Basalt Monolith, Treachery, Cloud of Faeries, and others. Scott Johns talks more about it in an MTG.com column you can read here, and Aaron Forsythe will have more to say this coming Friday.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled sign-off.

British FM objects inquiry into Iraq war

Create alert for BBCBBC
British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw on Monday ruled out an inquiry into the Iraq war despite a poll indicating that Britons are increasingly skeptical that the regime of Saddam Hussein really possessed weapons of mass destruction.
Straw told BBC radio there would be no independent inquiry into Britain's justification for war, as demanded by former cabinet ministers Robin Cook and Clare Short, who both resigned over the government's stance on the US-led war.
The British foreign minister said there was "overwhelming" evidence that Iraq was developing chemical, biologial and nuclear weapons. "I've got it in front of me and it's on the (British government) website," he said. (Albawaba.com)

Annie Uhlfelder is my husband's maternal grandmother. She passed away sometime in the mid-50's. She was married to Fritz Levi, but they were divorced and she married someone else. I do not know his name.
My husband would love to hear what you know about her since he never knew her. We have a lovely portrait painted of her in the 1920's, which would have been about the time your mother knew her.

Of course, nearly dying came at the most inopportune moment ever after both her estranged husband Harry (Brett Tucker) and her baby daddy Dom (Jason George) professed their love for her.

Rochelle Aytes and Alyssa Milano
"Here's the story
Of two lovely ladies ..."
Doesn't take long before ABC Family's The Fosters dispels one of its two moms' worries that if they keep adding kids to their already crowded household, "It's going to be like The Brady Bunch around here." Well, maybe if Carol had married Alice and Alice was an African-American private-school vice principal and Carol was a cop and the kids were a blended multi-racial rainbow of diversity. Earnest but rarely saccharine, this promising new family drama (Monday, 9/8c) — to be paired in future weeks with the channel's best series, Switched at Birth — establishes its edgier tone by introducing its main character, the abused but prideful Callie (Maia Mitchell), as she gets roughed up on her way out of juvy and into the welcoming custody of Lena (Sherri Saum), who hasn't yet told her partner-the-cop Stef (Teri Polo) about the new addition.
With a name like Mistresses, ABC's new drama has guilty pleasure written all over it.
Based on the British series of the same name, Mistresses stars Alyssa Milano, Rochelle Aytes, Yunjin Kim and Jes Maccallan as a group of women whose lives are full of illicit and complicated relationships — most of them involving being "the other woman," and one of them involving another woman. (Yes, we're talking about a lesbian relationship.)

The Heretic among Us
This quest is available after completing Blood for Blood (Quest). Speak with Drillemont in the Coerthas Central Highlands at X12-Y17. He will tell you to rush West and interrupt the Inquisitor. Once you arrive, speak with the knight to begin an instance.
This battle will be easier for tanks than most classes. As battle begins, only the Inquisitor will be there, but throughout the battle additional monsters will spawn. Always deal with them first. Once he turns into a dragon, start attacking him, but if you are a weaker class try to avoid drawing his aggro, as he hits pretty hard. Once the Wyvern shows up, make sure you kill it quickly, as dealing with the 2 of them can be a pain.
As the Inquistor grows closer to death he will try summoning more of the weaker mobs. Make sure to deal with them quickly so that the damage doesn't pile up. Tanks will fair best in this fight as they can take the punches more easily than the other classes.
Once battle is over, return to Alphinaud at X12-Y16 to complete the quest.

TCI Plastics is expanding its petrochemicals bagging operation at the Port of New Orleans to more than triple the facility's annual capacity to 68,000 20-foot-equivalent units of containers.
The expansion will increase the port's containerized exports by almost 15 percent, said Christian Jensen, president of TCI. The company is a division of New Orleans-based Jensen Companies, whose other operations include drayage and warehousing.
TCI is investing $36.5 million in the 500,000-square-foot facility on 32 acres purchased from the port near the former France Road terminal on the city's Industrial Canal. The facility is scheduled to open in the third quarter of 2016.
The expansion will provide TCI with a total of 60 acres at its primary site. The company's existing France Road facility opened in 2011 for bagging and containerizing rail shipments of PVC powder. The new facility will handle polyethylene pellets.
TCI also leases more than 150,000 square feet for resin bagging and warehousing at the Gov. Nicholls Street Wharf on the Mississippi River, a location that provides access to breakbulk vessels.
Petrochemical manufacturing on the Gulf Coast is benefiting from low natural-gas prices that have reduced costs for fuel and feedstocks. More than $20 billion in petrochemical expansions have been announced along the river between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Much of the resulting petrochemical production will be exported.
Jensen said capacity at TCI's existing operation, which can bag and export up to 22,000 TEUs a year, is "close to sold out." He said the region's petrochemicals boom is expected to generate increased export traffic for years to come.
TCI's expansion will provide 46,000 TEUs of additional annual capacity for packaging of PVC resin and polyethylene, and will add the capability to produce plastic film for packaging the products.
Much of the region's current production moves through Houston. Jensen said New Orleans has an opportunity to seize some of that traffic through proximity to Louisiana plants and competitive costs.
Louisiana producers qualify for a $5-per-ton state income tax credit on containerized and breakbulk exports. The credits are based on new cargo or increases over a company's 2013 export volume.
TCI's France Road operation has a local road weight permit allowing movement of containers loaded with up to 56,000 pounds, which Jensen said can reduce shipping costs by 12 to 15 percent. The gross truck weight limit under the permit is 95,000 pounds.
The site has access to the New Orleans Public Belt Railroad, which connects with the port's six Class 1 railroads. The State of Louisiana provided an $800,000 grant to offset the costs of building a rail spur to link the new facility with the switching railroad.

Sharapova Defeats Pironkova in French Open

Bulgaria's Tsvetana Pironkova lost 5:7, 2:6 to Maria Sharapova in the second round of the French Open.
Despite starting well and taking a 2-game lead in the first set, Pironkova went on to lose it 5:7. Part of this can be attributed to Sharapova's concentration and aggression at the end.
In the second set, Pironkova was unable to keep up with her opponent, seeded 7th. She also needed to take a medical timeout due to physical problems.
This was the 5th win in as many matches for Sharapova against the Bulgarian.

Free Product Received
Raise your hand if you are a techie.... Mine is raised high and even waving!
PhoneSoap arrived and I thought "this is pretty cool, we will give it a shot" but this was so much more than a review. This was an eye opener.
For those who do not know, we have a toddler. He is 17 months old. He likes to put things in his mouth, especially my cell phone. PhoneSoap sent me this product to review, but really it was a life changer for me.
This product sanitizes and charges at the same time. Sanitizing a cell phone is something I never really thought about until I started reading more information about this product. Did you know that your cell phone has more germs on it than a door knob? More than a toilet lid? How about this one... your cell phone has more germs than a toilet seat. Yes, you read that correctly, more germs than a toilet SEAT.
Now its time to get a little personal for this review. Have you ever used your phone in the bathroom? Its okay to confess, because I will raise my hand to that as well. BUT did you know that 1 in 6 cell phones has fecal matter on it? A scientific study shows that a cell phone has 18 times the bacteria than that of a public restroom. Again, you read that right... the places we never desire to be and only use in emergencies and would absolutely never tell our kids to put anything from in there in the mouth, but yet let them suck and teethe on devices daily.
See why this review was an eye opener for me?
This product works by using UV light to sanitize our devices while charging them at the same time. Its quick and painless and could save our families from many illnesses especially this cold and flu season.
What a perfect gift for this holiday season, something that is versatile enough to give to anyone. Man, woman or even teen. I look at germs a lot differently now that I have read the information about this product and will absolutely continue to use it.
Want more information on how to purchase this awesome item? Check out their PhoneSoap purchasing page. This product retails for $59.95 and is worth every single penny, if nothing else for the peace of mind that my child will not be ingesting bathroom particles.
*Disclosure* I received the above mentioned product for review purposes only. I was not compensated for this review and the opinions contained within this post are mine and may vary from the opinions of others.

I love that these are so clean lined and sophisticated in design. You can easily hang things on either side with the hooks going upward without having things fall off.
We ordered not only the robe hook, but also the towel bar, the toilet paper holder, the hand towel ring (which is not really a ring), and the train rack. We like the sleek design -- angular and contemporary. We also like the design of the TP holder especially. It is open on one end, making it super easy to swap out an empty roll for a new one. One suggestion: when installing the towel bar and train rack, be sure to measure carefully before drilling the holes. There is no wiggle room for adjustments.

Police identify Wakefield woman killed in Milton Route 125 crash
Police, firefighters and emergency personnel responded at 1:45 p.m. after a northbound 2004 Ford Taurus driven by Monique Smith, 76, of Main Street, Union - a village in the town of Wakefield - collided with a southbound 2004 Chevrolet pickup driven by Richard Stuart, 50, also of Main Street, Union, on Route 125, according to Police Chief Mark McGowan.
Firefighters extricated Smith, who was declared dead at the scene by members of the N.H. Medical Examiner's office, while ambulance crews transported Stuart to Frisbie Memorial Hospital in Rochester for serious injuries.
McGowan said Route 125 was completely closed for hours, but area police rerouted traffic along Route 16 as rescue personnel and investigators worked at the scene.
"It's easier that way - especially with the weather and with people in the road," McGowan said.
Fire Chief Nick Marique said Route 125 was re-opened around 6 p.m.
McGowan said investigators have not determined what caused the crash, but police are looking into a variety of factors. He said members of the Strafford County Regional Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team, which responded to the scene, are working with Milton police. He said the ongoing investigation will take some time.
Members of Farmington, Middleton, Rochester, Wakefield and N.H. State Police assisted local officers with the investigation and traffic. Wakefield firefighters and paramedics from Frisbie Memorial Hospital also responded to the scene.

Bosch ART 26 LI, seems to be a good strimmer, does not cut through shrubs, but then again it wasn't designed for that. Main reason for the low rating, is the very short battery life which is, even with quite thin grass only about half an hour. Been looking for a spare battery, but they're in the £60 + region almost as much as the strimmer was itself. Wouldn't recommend it for those reasons.

Oil-train wreck brings demands for more regulationBy ALAN SUDERMAN and MICHAEL FELBERBAUM
the associated press | May 02,2014ap photo
Workers remove damaged tanker cars along the tracks where several CSX tanker cars carrying crude oil derailed and caught fire along the James River near downtown Lynchburg, Va., Thursday. Department of Environmental Quality spokesman Bill Hayden said state workers smelled oil downstream from the derailment site during a night-time survey. CSX crews and heavy equipment contractors worked to clear more than a dozen derailed train cars, some carrying crude oil.LYNCHBURG, Va. The latest in a string of fiery oil-train wrecks brought renewed demands Thursday that the Obama administration quickly tighten regulations governing the burgeoning practice of transporting highly combustible crude by rail.
With production booming in the Bakken oil field along the U.S. northern tier and in Canada, some experts say stronger rules to head off a catastrophe are long overdue.
In the latest crash, a CSX train carrying Bakken crude from North Dakota derailed Wednesday in downtown Lynchburg, sending three tanker cars into the James River and shooting flames and black smoke into the air. No one was injured, but the crash prompted an evacuation and angered local residents and officials.
There have been eight other significant accidents in the U.S. and Canada in the past year involving trains hauling crude, and some of them caused considerable damage and deaths, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. Bakken crude ignites more easily than other types.
Members of Congress are urging the Transportation Department to work swiftly on new standards that would make tanker cars more rugged.
Everybody is waiting on them and expecting some significant action, Grady Cothen, a former Federal Railroad Administration official, said after Wednesdays wreck. Its a front-and-center concern on the part of everybody in rail transportation.
Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx has told lawmakers that regulators are working as quickly as they can to get tougher tanker car regulations written and approved.
But he said some oil companies have failed to provide the data he requested, and he complained that the agency within his department that regulates flammable liquids is understaffed.
We have a million shipments of hazardous materials moving around this country every day, and we have 50 inspectors, Foxx told The Associated Press recently.
The cause of the accident is under investigation by the NTSB. CSX said it is cooperating fully.
NTSB investigator Jim Southworth said the train was going 24 mph in a 25 mph zone at the time.
On Thursday, crew used cranes and other heavy equipment to remove the cars. All of the trains cars were carrying crude, and each had a capacity of 30,000 gallons, officials said.
This could have been a whole lot worse, Mayor Michael A. Gillette said, adding that local officials have virtually no say over railroad operations. We rely on state and federal government to do the work that needs to be done that our citizens are safe.
Lorrie Saunders looked at the wreckage and said: It was a miracle it didnt set the whole town of Lynchburg on fire.
City officials said about 50,000 gallons of oil was missing, but it was unclear how much burned up and how much spilled into the river.
City spokeswoman JoAnn Martin said there was no effect on the water supply for Lynchburgs 77,000 residents because the city draws from the river only during droughts.
Concern about rail safety grew last July when a runaway oil train derailed and exploded in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, near the Maine border. Forty-seven people died and 30 buildings were incinerated.
Canadian investigators said the 1.3 million gallons of Bakken crude released in the accident was comparable in combustibility to gasoline.
The NTSB has long recommended that the Transportation Department toughen its design standard for oil tanker cars. The cars are considered too easily punctured or ruptured, even in low-speed accidents.
We are very clear that this issue needs to be acted on very quickly, NTSB chairwoman Deborah Hersman warned in one of her last acts before leaving office last week.MORE IN Wire NewsWASHINGTON Two days after reopening diplomatic relations with Cuba, President Barack Obama said...

Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has a new endorsement deal with Jordan Brand, and a ton of motivation from the Cowboy haters in the world. Bryant is focused and working hard, and as he told ESPN 600 in El Paso, the "constant hate the Cowboys receives motivates him." Yes sir. That's the thing – you want to be right, and I feel like the greatest thing about being on the Cowboys [is] people love to hate the Cowboys. That makes you work 10 times harder. They put the big target on us or whatever, and speaking for myself, it doesn't bother me. I'm pretty sure it doesn't bother a lot of guys. They like that kind of pressure. It makes us want to work hard and makes you want to do what you want to do to get to that big game. ESPN 600

That's Rich
Wanna know how county commissioners earn their keep? Don't bother checking financial disclosure forms.
By Jacob Bernstein and Robbie Guerra
Making the Case for Paying Politicians
Don't worry, Rig's Rules will keep it clean: Jacob Bernstein and Robbie Guerra's article �That's Rich� (August 10), detailing the increase in net worth of our Miami-Dade County commissioners while in office, is reason enough to consider carefully giving them a real salary. A $6000 salary for a part-time job, which is really a full-time job managing a budget of more than four billion dollars (greater than some states), is kind of absurd. Most of our commissioners, however, are not taking to the streets with tin cups. Some of them depend on a spouse's money; some have legit jobs; some have no jobs; some we wonder about.
Several weeks ago the salary topic, which I believe will be before the public soon, was explored on Michael Putney's Sunday show This Week in South Florida. Left out of that discussion was the $6000 expense account and the extra $6000 in public money the commissioners handed themselves through the back door. The public was not aware of it until after they did it. Somehow or other, while the commissioners see a $6000 salary, like the boy in The Emperor's New Clothes, I see an $18,000 salary.
Let's add a few things to that $18,000 salary. Consider a $10,000 benefit allowance, $600 monthly in travel and expense money, or a leased car not to exceed $600 per month. (Check out local lease rates. That $600 per month is not too shabby.) The commissioners also receive an annual retirement contribution from the county of $1500. Add to all this $440,000 per year for their offices, an average of five aides who earn somewhere in the $30s and an executive assistant or chief of staff earning somewhere in the $70s. And don't forget, as this newspaper reported a couple of years ago, the incredible cell-phone benefits allowing commissioners to call friends and family all over the world -- for advice, of course, on public issues.
Oops, I almost left out travel. Not all commissioners have taken advantage of the wonderful travel benefits their job provides. Some, though, have traveled the globe at public expense.
With all the aforementioned do you really think I want to pay these commissioners real money for real jobs? Actually, yes! With a few caveats, however.
If these people are going to receive a salary of from $70,000 to $90,000 per year, they must not receive money at the same time from a state or local public or private entity unless it is retirement pay. No active employment, no consulting, no creative ways to feed off the public above their commission salaries. Even today commissioners cannot give money from their personal accounts to any agency that employs them. But under Rig's Rules such employment would not be possible.
What will a prospective commissioner do upon election if he or she has investments that could profit from a commission decision? Can you say blind trust? What would a local schoolteacher or administrator do upon election to the commission? Can you say leave of absence? Law firms no longer will pay salaries to partners gone AWOL on the county commission.
Miami-Dade County commissioners don't have it as bad as some would like us to believe. As of now it's not the best-paying job around, but it does pay. Considering the benefits -- the travel, the interesting folks they meet -- it's really a fun way to make a living. I certainly hope the Miami-Dade County electorate won't make it more fun by giving big bucks without changing the status quo. I can just imagine a future New Times piece: �Net Worth Triples While in Office: Previous Investments not Taken into Consideration.�
Recently appointed to a county committee, I had to submit a financial disclosure form. It is a minor committee with a minor task. But Miami-Dade County commissioners manage major money: public money, mine, yours, and a little of theirs. There are incredible temptations. In the not-so-distant past, unethical builders, developers, lobbyists said, �Here is the apple; take a bite.� Some commissioners yielded to temptation. They didn't gain knowledge; they gained fatter bank accounts. Their job is really all about money, so much of it that their financial disclosure forms should be verified and it should be a misdemeanor to give false information. But as you reported, today's disclosure rules are an invitation to lie.

The Elian Effect
Sandra Luckow thought the time was right for a documentary about Operation Pedro Pan. Boy was she wrong.
By Gaspar Gonz�lez
Pedro Pan Won't Fly
For some it wasn't a fairy tale: Regarding Gaspar Gonzalez's article about Operation Pedro Pan (�The Elian Effect,� August 3) and the National Endowment for the Humanities' political sensibilities, as usual New Times doesn't let anything slide. I heard about the Pedro Pan children on National Public Radio news. They even ran a segment in which some women talked about their pretty horrendous experience in the homes of those who took them in. Many of these children were used as maids and not treated very nicely.

Blue screen 'windows not genuine' after copy to SSD
Howdy folks.
I bought a 128GB Samsung SSD to use as my boot drive. I have 2 500GB HDDs, 1 is the boot drive, the other has just program installs and data. I installed the SSD and copied the boot drive to the SSD with Norton Ghost 15 (provided with the SSD). It appeared to copy properly. I unplugged the 2 HDDs and rebooted (so the SSD would be recognized as drive C.
Boots, I log in, says 'preparing desktop' for about 30 seconds and then goes to the light blue screen with the 'windows not genuine build 7600' in the lower right.
I've done searches for solutions and none seem quite right for my situation. I plugged the other drives back in and changed the boot order in the BIOS so I can boot from the original bootable drive. Should I wipe and recopy the SSD?
As anyone, I'd hate to have to do a fresh install and reload everything. I tried booting the SSD with the windows disk and tried the 'Repair' option to no avail.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks in advance

First Guard will continue to be operated by its current management team led by CEO Edmund B. Campbell, III. The ownership change will not have an impact on day-to-day operations, according to Biglari. First Guard will remain headquartered in Venice, Fla.
First Guard Insurance, licensed in 28 states, is a direct underwriter of commercial trucking insurance selling physical damage and non-trucking liability insurance to owner-operator truckers. It writes business rather than going through agents and brokers, giving it one of the lowest cost structures in the insurance industry, according to the company.
Biglari Holdings is a Texas-based operation that owns the restaurants Steak 'n Shake and Western Sizzlin' among other properties.
