RIGHT-BACK Curtis Obeng has assured fans there is still a lot to come from him.
The 22-year-old, who joined Wrexham following his release by Manchester City in the summer of 2009, has signed a new 18 month deal which will keep him at The Racecourse until January 2013.
Without a senior appearance at City, Obeng has been manager Dean Saunders' first choice right-back over the last two seasons but the England C international admitted he took time to get used to playing in the Conference.
And although Obeng was pleased with his form as he helped Wrexham reach the play-off semi-finals last season, he insists there is a lot more room for improvement.
"It took a season for me to get used to playing regularly in this division," said Obeng. "When I left City for Wrexham, I went from the reserves to the first team, and was playing a different style of football to what I was used to.
"It is a lot more physical in the Conference as I found.
"I think I had a good second season, I was pleased with my form, but I can go up another level and keep improving.
"I am 22 and there is a lot more to learn about the game and what comes with it. I will keep listening to the gaffer and keep learning.
"There is still a lot more for me to show the fans. They have been great with their support, hopefully I can repay them some good performances, good defending and assists when I can."
Obeng, who played 36 league games last season, scored his first senior goal in the 4-2 victory against Tamworth on April 25.
Willing to get forward at every opportunity, Obeng is hoping to get on the scoresheet more often.
"Hopefully I get a few goals," he said. "I got one last season but would like to get about five a season.
"Scoring is something I want to add to my game. It is another weapon to have in your armoury and can help take my game to another level.
"I had nine or ten assists last season but if I can get goals as well, it is another weapon to have."
But that solitary goal means Obeng got the better of left-back Neil Ashton, another player who has committed his future but has yet to get on the scoresheet for the Reds.
"We had a few shooting competitions in training and I said I would finish higher than Neil in goals and I did!" he joked.
Admitting that a number of clubs were chasing his signature, Obeng was delighted to extend his stay at The Racecourse and is looking to launch a fresh promotion challenge.
"An 18 month deal is good, it is not too long and not too short," he said. "I had a few other things from quite a lot of teams in our division and the one above.
"But Wrexham is a bigger club and I was more than happy to stay where I am.
"Playing games is obviously a good thing and I was happy with my own form and that of the team.
"Hopefully I keep my spot going into the new season and get even more games."
Obeng added: "You want to be playing regularly, that is what it is all about, and to do what you can for the team.
"You aim to finish as high as you can and hopefully get promoted.
"Hopefully we start the new season the way we left off. We want to continue to win the majority of games and get to the play-offs at least."

This was a very well built phone, however I didn't really care for the OS.

Awesome phone for Battery life... bottom of the heap as far as WM phones go.
Jim has owned it for less than month before publishing this review
Phone is quirky in a lot of respects. Sprint will quickly refund your money (w/ no restocking fee) if you complain about this phone.... the reps I talked to seemed to know this phone was pretty crappy on the UI. In alot of respects.. the UI was not very logical.... WM 6.5 (the rendition on this phone) is a bit unusable.
Battery life on the other hand is pretty downright incredible. Don't know what samsung did here... but they did it very well.
Overall... in spite of the UI... if I were someone who needed the capabilities of a smartphone ... w/ out all the drawbacks of batterylife associated w/ all of the other phones.... I would definitely consider this phone. Very nice that it's a world phone as well.Build quality 9/10Reception 8/10Call quality 9/10Internet 8/10Multimedia 7/10Camera 8/10UI speed 7/10Everyday usage 7/10Text input 7/10Display 8/10Battery 10/10

Very Impressive
The interface could be confusing at times, but as I learned more about the phone I found something to value in it's use with each passing day. In my previous life I have had the Palm 755P, HTC 3125, Samsung Exclaim and a few flip phones. The Intrepid has good signal stength, good voice quality and a VERY nice a versatile touch and tactile interface. The screen size is nice and crisp and there are well thought out short cut buttons upfront for heavily used features such as bluetooth. If my bluetooth device is on and I turn on the Bluetooth of the Intrepid, it immediately recognizes who it should pair with. This made pairing faster for me. The internet was fast and I can access sites I am unable to access on my other phones, such as secure sites. The music player is nice. Signal strength is awesome; the phone maintained call through an elevator ride and was showing off on the internet in a tunnel, underground. I am impressed with the accuracy of the TELLME feature (with or without a bluetooth). I would recommend this for a busy adult with a lot of stuff to do or a business professional.Design 9/10Features 9/10Performance 9/10

The Samsung Intrepid is a huge upgrade from my old disfunctional motorola q. Windows 6.5 is truly a touch screen OS. I love the touch screen, but it could've been a great phone without (like a blackberry). I have a full data, text, etc plan, unfortunately, I am on an old SERO plan (30 a month), and most of sprint's new phones (like the Samsung moment, palm pre and all instinct phones) require the new SERO plan (60 a month). That greatly limits my choice of phones. Blackberry plans also require an extra 10 dollars a month (to run on that blackberry internet). Since I wanted a smart phone, there were a few, the Treo Pro, HTC Snap, Touch Pro 2, and the Intrepid. I did not like the keyboard on the Treo Pro, and my friends seem to have a problem with their Treo's, the HTC snap was too boring of a phone for me, and the Touch Pro 2 is WAYYYY TOO EXPENSIVE (unless you are a real business person, or don't have a laptop/ desktop to work on, the Touch Pro 2 is
Unnecessary unnecessary (although still a really cool phone). The Samsung Intrepid for $150 will satisfy all you're needs, web browsing, instant messaging, e-mail, microsoft applications (word, excel, outlook, etc) as well as several other useful and fun extras. Great for a college student or business worker on the go.Design 8/10Features 8/10Performance 9/10

- Useful Microsoft applications (especially outlook)

---Adds broker comment and share price reaction---
Tom Albanese, chief executive officer of Rio Tinto (LON:RIO), has made an abrupt exit from the mining giant after the group announced US$14bn of impairments.
The bulk of the write-downs – some US$10-11bn – relate to Rio Tinto's aluminium assets (Rio Tinto Alcan, and Pacific Aluminium), but around US$3bn relates to the acquisition of Rio Tinto Coal Mozambique, and this seems to have been the cause of Albanese's downfall.
Rio Tinto chairman Jan du Plessis said: "The Rio Tinto board fully acknowledges that a write-down of this scale in relation to the relatively recent Mozambique acquisition is unacceptable. We are also deeply disappointed to have to take a further substantial write-down in our aluminium businesses, albeit in an industry that continues to experience significant adverse changes globally."
Albanese has been succeeded as chief executive officer (CEO) by Sam Walsh, previously boss of Rio Tinto's iron ore operations.
Rio Tinto said the non-cash impairments will be reflected in its full year results for 2012, and added that the underlying business and balance sheet remain in good health.
Rio Tinto's acquisition of coal assets in Mozambique ran into trouble when the country's infrastructure proved to be in need of more development than Rio Tinto anticipated.
Rio Tinto sought to transport coal by barge along the Zambezi River, but this option did not receive formal approvals.
Shares initially fell sharply on the news, hitting 3300p, before rallying to 3,405.5p by mid-morning, down 63p on the day, as brokers expressed their views on the ramifications of the change at the top.
"We believe the market will perceive today's write-downs and management changes negatively in the short term, but that these will be positive for the stock and the sector longer term," is Citigroup's view.
The US banking titan has upgraded the stock to 'buy' from 'neutral' after this morning's announcement, as it believes the changes could significantly "realign Rio Tinto with shareholder interests" through reduced mergers & acquisitions (M&A) activity and reduced capital expenditure (capex).
"Due to today's impairments, we have removed the large discount to net present value (NPV) we previously applied for poor capital allocation (we now apply a 15% discount vs. 40% previously). As a result of this, and a shift in our foreign exchange assumptions to reflect the current spot rate, we have increased our target price to £40.00 (previously £33).
Another US bank, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, said the paper losses on aluminium were expected, but the write-downs on the coal assets were an unpleasant surprise.
"The group is having trouble getting permission to barge coal. We are left wondering whether we need to factor in project delays and capex over-runs and expect more details with the full-year results. To the extent this is the case, this would end up being a downgrade to our NPV. As a sensitivity, a US$1bn capex overrun would negatively affect our discounted cash flow per share by roughly 33p/A$0.50," BofA Merrill Lynch's mining team write.
"Our base NPV for Rio is 3910p/A$61," the broker added.
Colour Kate Craig at Liberum Capital unshocked by the write-downs.
"Our initial thoughts are the market already knew these acquisitions were overpriced and the write-downs are not incommensurate with ours and the market's valuation of these assets. Rio appears to be taking the front foot on write downs and appears to have been more proactive on culpability than Anglo – launching management changes and cost cutting before the market has asked for it. Sam Walsh is the logical replacement for Albanese and has a strong operational heritage and may be more focussed on iron ore growth, which the market will like," the broker said.
Liberum remains bullish on Rio Tinto, and reckons the share price, up 11% since the beginning of December, has some catching up to do with iron ore prices – up 34% over the same period.
"Running our forecast 2013 iron ore price of $120/t, $30/t below spot, still leaves RIO at a 16% discount to the sector on 2013 PERs, a discount more consistent with historical averages," Kate Craig calculates.

Note on the timeline of Heart's Desire:
-Prologue and Part 1 are set pre-series, extending to just before Sasuke is assigned to Team 7.
-Part 2 is set during the Chuunin Exam.
-Part 3 is set just after Episode 107, Naruto and Sasuke's fight on the rooftop, after Naruto returns with Tsunade.
What ruinous tavern-shine
Is this that lights me far from worlds and wars
-Edwin Arlington Robinson
Sasuke was angry, so angry – the pattern of his life had been disrupted, and he felt that everything that he had been cautiously allowing himself to appreciate, to treasure, to hold close to himself - they had only seemed to be bright and beautiful and worth fighting for to his young Sharingan - and the veil had been ripped from his eyes by his brother's deadlier gaze.
How dare Naruto improve so quickly, how dare he presume to stand on equal footing as Sasuke? (He ignored the tiny voice inside of admiration, of eager challenge, of brotherhood) How dare Kakashi presume to advise him, to tell him to let go of his vengeance? (He felt no curiosity about his sensei's suffering, no respect for what the man had shown himself capable of, no response to the reaching out, he didn't, he didn't)
All that remained for him was Itachi, and the death he had been charged to bring him.
But somehow his wandering feet brought him to the Yong enclave, on the rooftop where he had so often watched them play. The older children were often busy with increasingly adult responsibilities, and new faces began to appear in the crowd, but in many ways the scene was as it had been many years ago – games and laughter and quick flares of temper, never anything that lasted beyond the sunset – children playing in their home.
Sasuke stiffened as a familiar figure moved lithely through the hard press of bodies in some intense ball-game. Her high clear laughter rang out as she trapped the white-and-black sphere between her feet and began to run towards the other end of the chalk-marked playing field. Other people flung themselves on her, trying to stop her progress, but she dodged them deftly – even the others with Konoha hitai-ate – and kicked the ball into a makeshift goal. She raised her arms in triumph, other children hugging her or slapping her back in approval, while the other team groaned and the audience applauded.
Tien, Jian's daughter, zhang-zhi and jie, older sister, or mei-mei, little sister, depending on the age of the one calling her – what they called her, here in her little empire-home, in words that outsiders didn't understand. Bun-head, the third on Team Gai, weapons-girl – that was what they called her outside, in Konoha, rough and quick and fighting names for a rough and quick and fighting kunoichi.
But somehow Sasuke watched her, watched as she knelt beside a younger child wailing over a scraped knee, watched as she smiled at another girl who waved at her, and he let himself shape a very quiet, very secret, very small wish in the back of his mind.
He wanted to share what she had. He wanted to be able to be there, with her and the others, not just watching from above, apart, alone.
He wanted to be able to call her his.
Later, when the Sound's elite Four came, offering power and position at Orochimaru's side, he found it in him to refuse. Not when he had Naruto to defeat, to push him to greater heights - and to be right alongside the whole while. Not when he had Kakashi who understood what it was like, Kakashi who had eyes like his.
Not when he had something he wanted so much in Konoha.
That's it! And now we delve into the realms of AU. Sequel to be written once I'm done with my other projects - one NejiTen and two other SasuTen. Yes, that's right, I'm as surprised as you are: SasuTen outnumbering my more-canon OTP?

CHRIS Male says he quit boxing because he can no longer give the sport total commitment.
The 30-year-old featherweight announced his retirement last week, pulling out of a clash with Mansfield-based Latvian Pavel Senkovs which was scheduled for Wolverhampton on March 9.
It would have been Male's first outing since losing an English title clash with Josh Warrington last November, his only professional defeat.
Male had hinted at retirement in the immediate aftermath of the fight, before later deciding to continue.
But the punching postman is now convinced the time is right to hang up the gloves.
He said: "I was struggling to find the motivation for the Senkovs fight. I beat him four years ago and to me it was a backward step.
"I have always respected the sport and I have always been 100 per cent dedicated. When you start to lose that it is time to go.
"I think as a boxer you are the first to realise it but often the last to accept it.
"Physically I'm fine. I'm probably in the best shape I've ever been in but boxing has to mean everything to you and at my age, with my job and the disappointments I've had in the last couple of years in the ring, I can't say it is."
Male admitted he is leaving the sport with regrets, after suffering no end of bad luck over the last two-and-a-half years. In retrospect the highlight of his career, a British Masters win over Liam Richards, was also the beginning of the end.
Male broke his hand midway through the contest and that scuppered an English title clash with Del Rogers.
Further English title shots against Olympian Joe Murray twice fell through, first due to the entire bill being cancelled and then through injury, while another arranged showdown with Jon Fernandes fell through because of poor ticket sales.
It meant the Dudley man had been out of the ring for almost 18 months and went into the eventual fight with Warrington seriously under-cooked.
He said: "In a sporting career it's all about having that little bit of luck at the right moment.
"If the Del Rogers fight had come off I'm convinced I would have been English champion.
"Watching the way Murray was fighting at the time I think I would have beaten him too."
He added: "People watch the big names in the sport, guys like Floyd Mayweather but it's not like that for most professionals. Mayweather gets up, goes to the gym twice a day and the rest of his time is free. It's a wonderful life.
"I get up at 4am, go running, train, then do an eight-hour post round before training again, going home, eating dinner and going to bed.
"I'm 31 this year and financially I know boxing is not going to set me up.
"When you take everything into account I know deep down I've made the right decision."

App Reveals More of Paris's Treasures: Parks and Gardens
Katharine Gammon highlights CityGardens, a new app by Philippe Pujau and Eric Boisselier that puts Paris's gardens and parks on the map. The app, which just won the AppMyCity! Prize at the New Cities Summit, is designed to help residents and tourists find parks and gardens, both known and little known, in close proximity to them and provides other logistical information about the spaces.
"'We hope to provide an opportunity for urban [sic] full advantage of this rich and misunderstood heritage,' says Pujau. 'Paris has 440 parks and gardens, which works out to an average of five parks within 500 meters around each Parisian. In many of them you can find play areas for children, water points, WiFi hotspots and entertainment.' In addition, many parks have long and storied histories that reveal something about the context of the neighborhood, say the founders. The app would help spread that information."

Use the information in this chapter to understand and configure the types of logical, or virtual, interfaces supported on Cisco routers and access servers. This chapter includes the following sections:
•Configuring a Loopback Interface
•Troubleshooting Channelized E1 and Channelized T1
•Configuring a Tunnel Interface
For examples of configuration tasks, see the "Logical Interface Configuration Examples" section.
For hardware technical descriptions and information about installing interfaces, refer to the hardware installation and configuration publication for your product. For complete descriptions of the logical interface commands, refer to the "Interface Commands" chapter of the Cisco IOS Interface Command Reference. To locate documentation of other commands that appear in this chapter, use the command reference master index or search online.
To identify the hardware platform or software image information associated with a feature, use the Feature Navigator on Cisco.com to search for information about the feature or refer to the software release notes for a specific release. For more information, see the "Identifying Supported Platforms" in "Using Cisco IOS Software."
You can specify a software-only interface called a loopback interface to emulate an interface. Loopback interfaces are supported on all platforms. A loopback interface is a virtual interface that is always up and allows Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and remote source-route bridging (RSRB) sessions to stay up even if the outbound interface is down.
You can use the loopback interface as the termination address for BGP sessions, for RSRB connections, or to establish a Telnet session from the device's console to its auxiliary port when all other interfaces are down. You can also use a loopback interface to configure IPX-PPP on asynchronous interfaces. To do so, you must associate an asynchronous interface with a loopback interface configured to run IPX. In applications in which other routers or access servers attempt to reach this loopback interface, you should configure a routing protocol to distribute the subnet assigned to the loopback address.
Packets routed to the loopback interface are rerouted back to the router or access server and processed locally. IP packets routed out the loopback interface but not destined to the loopback interface are dropped. This means that the loopback interface serves as the Null 0 interface also.
Note Loopback does not work on an X.21 DTE because the X.21 interface definition does not include a loopback definition.
To specify a loopback interface and enter interface configuration mode, use one of the following commands in global configuration mode:
Router(config)# interface loopback number
Enters interface configuration.
Router(config)# interface loopback slot/port
Enters interface configuration for Cisco 7200 series or Cisco 7500 series routers.
Router(config)# interface loopback slot/port-adapter/port
Enters interface configuration for Cisco 7500 series routers.
For more general information about loopback interfaces, see the "Running Interface Loopback Diagnostics" section in the "Features for Any Interface" chapter.
When troubleshooting channelized T1 or E1, you must first determine if the problem is with a particular channel group or with the T1 or E1 line.
If the problem is with a single channel group, you have a potential interface problem.
If the problem is with the T1 or E1 line, or with all channel groups, you have a potential controller problem.
The following sections describe how to determine whether the problem affects an interface or a controller:
•Running Controller Loopback Diagnostic Tests
•Channelized E1 Controller Loopback
When you troubleshoot E1 or T1 controllers, first check that the configuration is correct. The framing type and line code should match what the service provider has specified. Then check channel group and PRI-group configurations, especially to verify that the time slots and speeds are what the service provider has specified.
At this point, the show controllers t1 or show controllers e1 commands should be used to check for T1 or E1 errors. Use the command several times to determine if error counters are increasing, or if the line status is continually changing. If these errors are occurring, you need to work with the service provider.
Note Cisco routers do not have CSU capability and do not react to any remote loopback codes at the T1 or E1 level.
Controller loopback tests are a means to isolate problems and are available for both channelized T1 controllers and channelized E1 controllers. The following loopback tests are documented for isolating T1 and E1 controller issues:
•Channelized E1 Controller Loopback
The local loopback loops the controller both toward the router and toward the line. Because the loopback is done internally to the router, the controller should make the transition to the UP state within approximately 10 seconds, and no further T1 errors should be detected.
All channel groups will be looped back; if the encapsulation on that channel group supports loopbacks (for example, HDLC and PPP), you can test that channel group by pinging the interface address. For example, if you have assigned an IP address to the serial interface defined for a channel group, you can ping that IP address.
To place the controller into local loopback, use the following command in controller configuration mode:
Loops the T1 controller toward the router and toward the line.
To test a channel group, use the following command in EXEC mode:
Router# ping protocol protocol-address
Pings the interface address.
To check errors, use the following command in EXEC mode:
Checks errors.
If any errors occur, or the controller fails to change to the up state, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC).
Because the controller local loopback is bidirectional, the service provider can test the line integrity using a T1 bit error rate tester (BERT) test set.
The second T1 controller loopback is a remote loopback. This loopback can be used only if the entire T1 goes to a remote CSU. This is not the case with 99.9 percent of channelized T1. When the loopback remote controller command is executed, an in-band CSU loop-up code will be sent over the entire T1, which will attempt to loop up the remote CSU. To place the controller in remote loopback, use the following command in controller configuration mode:
Places the T1 controller in remote loopback.
Note If controller loopbacks are used, they will disrupt service for all channel groups on that interface.
For the E1 controller, only the local loopback is available. Local loopback operates the same as the local loopback on the T1 controller, forming a bidirectional loopback, both toward the router and toward the line. To place the E1 controller in local loopback, use the following command in controller configuration mode:
Places the E1 controller in local loopback toward the router and toward the line.
All channel groups will be looped back; if the encapsulation on that channel group supports loopbacks (for example, HDLC and PPP), you can test that channel group by pinging the interface address. For example, if you have assigned an IP address to the serial interface defined for a channel group, you can ping that IP address.
To place the controller into local loopback, use the following command in controller configuration mode:
Loops the T1 controller toward the router and toward the line.
To test a channel group, use the following command in EXEC mode:
Router> ping protocol protocol-address
Pings the interface address.
To check errors, if any, use the following command in EXEC mode:
Checks errors.
If any errors occur, they are most likely a hardware problem; contact the Cisco TAC. In addition, you can ask the service provider to test the line by using a T1 BERT test set.
The following example configures a Cisco 7500 series router to acknowledge an E1 line:
controller e1 3/0
channel-group 0 timeslots 1
channel-group 8 timeslots 5-15, 20-30
channel-group 12 timeslots 2
channel-group 29 timeslots 31
The following example applies only to a Cisco 7500 series router. It configures the router to acknowledge a T1 line and its circuits. Four different circuits (and their corresponding serial interfaces) are defined for the second CxCT1 attached to the MIP in slot 4.
controller t1 4/1

channel-group 0 timeslots 1
channel-group 8 timeslots 5,7,12-15, 20 speed 64

The following example configures circuit 0 for PPP encapsulation:
interface serial 4/1:0
ip address 172.18.13.1 255.255.255.0
encapsulation ppp
The following example configures circuit 8 for IP routing and disables IP route cache:
interface serial 4/1:8
ip address 172.18.1.1 255.255.255.0
no ip route-cache
The following example configures circuit 12 for Frame Relay encapsulation and subinterface support:
interface serial 4/1:12
encapsulation frame-relay
interface serial 4/1:12.1
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.0.0.0
interface serial 4/1:12.2
ip address 10.2.2.2 255.0.0.0
The following example configures circuit 23 for IP routing and enables autonomous switching:
interface serial 4/1:23
ip address 10.3.3.3 255.0.0.0
ip route-cache cbus
The Cisco IOS software supports a "null" interface. This pseudo-interface functions similarly to the null devices available on most operating systems. This interface is always up and can never forward or receive traffic; encapsulation always fails. The only interface configuration command that you can specify for the null interface is no ip unreachables.
The null interface provides an alternative method of filtering traffic. You can avoid the overhead involved with using access lists by directing undesired network traffic to the null interface.
To specify the null interface, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Router(config)# interface null 0
Enters interface configuration.
Specify null 0 (or null0) as the interface type and number. The null interface can be used in any command that has an interface type as an argument. The following example configures a null interface for IP route 127.0.0.0:
ip route 127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 null 0
Tunneling provides a way to encapsulate arbitrary packets inside a transport protocol. This feature is implemented as a virtual interface to provide a simple interface for configuration. The tunnel interface is not tied to specific "passenger" or "transport" protocols, but rather, it is an architecture that is designed to provide the services necessary to implement any standard point-to-point encapsulation scheme. Because tunnels are point-to-point links, you must configure a separate tunnel for each link.
Tunneling has the following three primary components:
•Passenger protocol, which is the protocol that you are encapsulating (AppleTalk, Banyan VINES, CLNS, DECnet, IP, or IPX)
•Carrier protocol, which is one of the following encapsulation protocols:
–Generic route encapsulation (GRE), Cisco's multiprotocol carrier protocol
–Cayman, a proprietary protocol for AppleTalk over IP
–EON, a standard for carrying CLNP over IP networks
–NOS, IP over IP compatible with the popular KA9Q program
–Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) (IP in IP tunnels)
•Transport protocol, which is the protocol used to carry the encapsulated protocol (IP only)
Figure 22 illustrates IP tunneling terminology and concepts.
Figure 22 IP Tunneling Terminology and Concepts
To understand the process of tunneling, consider connecting two AppleTalk networks with a non-AppleTalk backbone, such as IP. The relatively high bandwidth consumed by the broadcasting of Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP) data packets can severely hamper the backbone's network performance. This problem can be solved by tunneling AppleTalk through a foreign protocol, such as IP. Tunneling encapsulates an AppleTalk packet inside the foreign protocol packet, which is then sent across the backbone to a destination router. The destination router then removes the encapsulation from the AppleTalk packet and, if necessary, routes the packet to a normal AppleTalk network. Because the encapsulated AppleTalk packet is sent in a directed manner to a remote IP address, bandwidth usage is greatly reduced. Furthermore, the encapsulated packet benefits from any features normally enjoyed by IP packets, including default routes and load balancing.
The following are several situations in which encapsulating traffic in another protocol is useful:
•To provide multiprotocol local networks over a single-protocol backbone.
•To provide workarounds for networks containing protocols that have limited hop counts; for example, AppleTalk (see Figure 23).
•To connect discontinuous subnetworks.
•To allow virtual private networks across WANs.
Figure 23 Providing Workarounds for Networks with Limited Hop Counts
The following are considerations and precautions to observe when you configure tunneling:
•Encapsulation and the removal of encapsulation at the tunnel end points are slow operations; in general, only processor switching is supported. However, fast switching of GRE tunnels was introduced in Cisco IOS Release 11.1 for the Cisco 2500 series and the Cisco 4000 series of routers.
•Consider security and topology issues. Be careful not to violate access control lists. You can configure a tunnel with a source and destination that are not restricted by firewall routers.
•Tunneling might create problems with transport protocols that have limited timers (for example, DECnet) because of increased latency.
•Be aware of the environments across which you create tunnels. You might be tunneling across fast FDDI rings or through slow 9600-bps phone lines; some passenger protocols function poorly in mixed media networks.
•Multiple point-to-point tunnels can saturate the physical link with routing information.
•Routing protocols that make their decisions based solely on hop count will often prefer a tunnel over a multipoint real link. A tunnel might appear to be a one-hop, point-to-point link and have the lowest-cost path, but may actually cost more. For example, in the topology shown in Figure 24, packets from Host 1 will travel across networks w, q, and z to get to Host 2 instead of taking the path w, x, y, z because it "appears" shorter.
•An even worse problem will occur if routing information from the tunneled network mixes with the information about the transport network. In this case, the best path to the "tunnel destination" is via the tunnel itself. This is called a recursive route and will cause the tunnel interface to shut down temporarily. To avoid recursive routing problems, keep passenger and transport network routing information disjointed:
–Use a different AS number or tag.
–Use a different routing protocol.
–Use static routes to override the first hop (but watch for routing loops).
•If you see line protocol down, as in the following example, it might be because of a recursive route:
%TUN-RECURDOWN Interface Tunnel 0
temporarily disabled due to recursive routing
Figure 24 Tunnel Precautions: Hop Counts
To configure IP tunneling, perform the following tasks. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional.
•Specifying the Tunnel Interface (Required)
•Configuring the Tunnel Source (Required)
•Configuring the Tunnel Destination (Required)
•Configuring the Tunnel Mode (Optional)
•Configuring End-to-End Checksumming (Optional)
•Configuring a Tunnel Identification Key (Optional)
•Configuring a Tunnel Interface to Drop Out-of-Order Datagrams (Optional)
•Configuring Asynchronous Host Mobility (Optional)
For commands that monitor IP tunnels, see the "Monitoring and Maintaining the Interface" section in the "Features for Any Interface" chapter. For examples of configuring tunnels, see the "IP Tunneling: Example" section.
To specify a tunnel interface and enter interface configuration mode, use one of the following commands in global configuration mode:
Router(config)# interface tunnel number
Enters interface configuration.
Router(config)# interface tunnel slot/port
Enters interface configuration for Cisco 7200 series routers.
Router(config)# interface tunnel slot/port-adapter/port
Enters interface configuration for Cisco 7500 series routers.
To specify the source address for the tunnel interface, use the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel source {ip-address | type number}
Configures the tunnel source.
Note You cannot have two tunnels that use the same encapsulation mode with exactly the same source and destination address. The workaround is to create a loopback interface and source packets off the loopback interface.
To specify the destination for the tunnel interface, use the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel destination {hostname | ip-address}
Configures the tunnel destination.
The encapsulation mode for the tunnel interface defaults to generic route encapsulation (GRE), so this command is considered optional. However, if you want a mode other than GRE, you must configure it by using the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mode {aurp | cayman | dvmrp | eon | gre ip | nos}
Configures the tunnel mode.
If you are tunneling AppleTalk, you must use the AppleTalk Update Routing Protocol (AURP), Cayman, or GRE tunneling mode. Cayman tunneling is designed by Cayman Systems and enables routers and access servers to interoperate with Cayman GatorBoxes. You can have Cisco devices at either end of the tunnel, or you can have a GatorBox at one end and a Cisco router or access server at the other end. Use Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) mode when a router or access server connects to a mrouted router to run DVMRP over a tunnel. You must configure Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) and an IP address on a DVMRP tunnel.
Note For an example configuration of a GRE tunnel, see the Configuring GRE/IPv4 Tunnels: Examples in the Logical Interface Configuration Examples section.
If you use GRE, you must have only Cisco routers or access servers at both ends of the tunnel connection. When you use GRE to tunnel AppleTalk, you must configure an AppleTalk network address and a zone. To tunnel AppleTalk using GRE, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:
Step 1
Router(config)# interface tunnel number
Enables tunneling on the interface.
Step 2
Router(config-if)# appletalk cable-range start-end [network.node]
Assigns a cable range to an interface.
Step 3
Router(config-if)# appletalk zone zone-name
Sets a zone name for the connected AppleTalk network.
Step 4
Router(config-if)# tunnel source {ip-address | type number}
Specifies the interface from which the encapsulated packets will be sent, or specifies the IP address of the router.
Step 5
Router(config-if)# tunnel destination {hostname | ip-address}
Specifies the IP address of the router at the far end of the tunnel.
Step 6
Router(config-if)# tunnel mode gre ip
Enables GRE tunneling.
Some passenger protocols rely on media checksums to provide data integrity. By default, the tunnel does not guarantee packet integrity. By enabling end-to-end checksums, the Cisco IOS software drops corrupted packets. To enable such checksums on a tunnel interface, use the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel checksum
Configures end-to-end checksumming.
You can enable an ID key for a tunnel interface. This key must be set to the same value on the tunnel endpoints. Tunnel ID keys can be used as a form of weak security to prevent incorrect configuration or injection of packets from a foreign source.
Note IP multicast traffic is not supported when a tunnel ID key is configured unless the traffic is process-switched. You must configure the no ip mroute-cache command in interface configuration mode on the interface if an ID key is configured. This note applies only to Cisco IOS Release 12.0 and earlier releases.
The tunnel ID key is available with GRE only.
Note When GRE is used, the ID key is carried in each packet. We do not recommend relying on this key for security purposes.
To configure a tunnel ID key, use the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel key key-number
Configures a tunnel identification key.
You can optionally configure a tunnel interface to drop datagrams that arrive out of order. This is useful when carrying passenger protocols that function poorly when they receive packets out of order (for example, LLC2-based protocols). This option is available with GRE only. To use this option, use the following command in interface configuration mode:
Router(config-if)# tunnel sequence-datagrams
Configures a tunnel interface to drop out-of-order datagrams.
Increasingly, remote users are accessing networks through dial-up telephone connections. In contrast to local users who can connect directly into the network, remote users must first dial in to an access server.
The access server supports a packet tunneling strategy that extends the internetwork—in effect creating a virtual private link for the mobile user. When a user activates asynchronous host mobility, the access server on which the remote user dials into becomes a remote point-of-presence (POP) for the home network of the user. Once logged in, users experience a server environment identical to the one that they experience when they connect directly to the "home" access server.
Once the network layer connection is made, data packets are tunneled at the physical and/or data link layer instead of at the protocol layer. In this way, raw data bytes from dial-in users are transported directly to the "home" access server, which processes the protocols.
Figure 25 illustrates the implementation of asynchronous host mobility on an extended internetwork. A mobile user connects to an access server on the internetwork and, by activating asynchronous host mobility, is connected to a "home" access server configured with the appropriate username. The user sees an authentication dialog or prompt from the "home" system and can proceed as if connected directly to that device.
Figure 25 Asynchronous Host Mobility
The remote user implements asynchronous host mobility by executing the tunnel command in user EXEC mode. The tunnel command sets up a network layer connection to the specified destination. The access server accepts the connection, attaches it to a virtual terminal (VTY), and runs a command parser capable of running the normal dial-in services. After the connection is established, data is transferred between the modem and network connection with a minimum of interpretations. When communications are complete, the network connection can be closed and terminated from either end.
Refer to the Cisco Access Connection Guide for information about setting up the network layer connection with the tunnel command.
IP over a CLNS tunnel is a virtual interface that enhances interactions with CLNS (Connectionless Network Service) networks, allowing IP packets to be tunneled through the Connectionless Network Protocol (CLNP) to preserve TCP/IP services.
Configuring an IP over CLNS tunnel (CTunnel) allows you to Telnet to a remote router that has only CLNS connectivity. Other management facilities can also be used, such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and TFTP, which otherwise would not be available over a CLNS network.
IP over a CLNS Tunnel is supported on all platforms that support ISO CLNS.
To configure IP over a CLNS Tunnel (CTunnel), use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:
Step 1
Router(config)# interface ctunnel interface-number
Creates a virtual interface to transport IP over a CLNS tunnel and enters interface configuration mode. The interface number must be unique for each CTunnel interface.
Step 2
Router(config-if)# ctunnel destination remote-nsap-address
Configures the destination parameter for the CTunnel. Specifies the destination NSAP1 address of the CTunnel, where the IP packets are extracted.
Step 3
Router(config-if)# ip address ip-address mask
Sets a primary or secondary IP address for an interface.
1 NSAP = network service access point
Note To configure a CTunnel between a single pair of routers, you must enter the foregoing commands on each router. The destination NSAP address for Router A would be the NSAP address of Router B, and the destination NSAP address for Router B would be the NSAP address of Router A. Ideally, the IP addresses used for the virtual interfaces at either end of the tunnel should be in the same IP subnet.
To verify correct configuration of the IP over a CLNS Tunnel feature, perform the following steps:
Step 1 On Router A, ping the IP address of the CTunnel interface of Router B.
Step 2 On Router B, ping the IP address of the CTunnel interface of Router A.
To display the status of IP over CLNS tunnels, use the following command in privileged EXEC mode:
Router# show interfaces ctunnel interface-number
Displays information about an IP over CLNS tunnel.
This section includes the following examples to illustrate configuration tasks described in this chapter:

john lautner: sheats goldstein residence
'sheats goldstein residence' by john lautner, beverly hills, california image © artjocks
while in los angeles, designboom had the opportunity to visit john lautner's iconic 'sheats goldstein residence'. the showing, held on what would have been the late american architect's 100th birthday, was part of the months long john lautner turns 100 series taking place in LA and michigan.
the dwelling – seen here in its current state with photographs by new york and LA-based artjocks – is one of lautner's best known works. originally built between 1961 and 1963, the home is now owned by james goldstein, who worked with lautner for over two decades before his death to restore and renovate the property.

read as an extension of the landscape, the design seeks to seamlessly integrate itself with the lush surroundings, blurring the boundaries between interior and exterior. built into the sandstone ledge of the hillside, the home is both cavernous and exposed, opening to accept unsurpassed views over the city and the encircling natural environment.

perhaps the most recognizable element of the home is the coffered roof, which gently projects from the living room
and folds down above the pool. pierced with 750 drinking-glass skylights, the triangular volume mimics the shape of
the terrace and water, its monumental form linking the residence to the city.
living room with built in furniture by john lautner image © artjocks
the bold and raw skeleton, made from poured-in-place concrete consumes the home in its entirety, juxtaposed only by
glazed walls and rosewood floors. the custom built in furniture – also designed by lautner – uniquely responds to the
orientation and function of each room, positioned to take advantage of the adjacent views. the kitchen, windows, lights,
rugs, and operable functions were also conceived by the architect.

the skyspace, designed by light artist james turrell in collaboration with architect, duncan nicholson, is an art installation located on a steep slop below the residence. built using the same materials as the main house, the space features two retractable portals that open to reveal the sky and views of the city.

the furniture is horrible but the house amazing, remember those old houses of the 30's 40's
Dude i swear i see this horrible furniture in The Big Lebowski movie! iconic horrible!
It was in The Big Lebowski! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFcJ3IHFGqQ
I LOVE the furniture! Absolutely makes it.
yeah, the furniture is actually really great, without it… this house wouldn't resonate like it has as an architectural landmark. Maybe what you are trying to say is it isn't timeless, and it isn't – but it fits the period, and is a perfect window into that.
Its tha house in a Snoop Dogg Pharrell production
what's the problem with the furniture? can you imagine how atrocious Barcelona chairs would look in here?
Zaha, eat your heart out
I don't think all the furniture pieces are equally compelling, but overall they still hold water. It feels fresh after 5 decades, one could re-take such designs and use different fabrics or even leather and treat them in a more contemporary fashion, perhaps inject more color, but the overall form and proportion feels right. The house is a great example of indoor/outdoor mentality, neither too exposed not too concealed, absolutely love it
Fantastically idiosyncratic design, and quite livable — unlike, say, some Wright houses. But what's with this text: "The design seeks to seamlessly integrate itself with the lush surroundings . . . " How is the triangle integral to botany? The house feels in harmony with its surroundings, partly because it's low and folded into the vegetation, but seamlessly integrated?
I have also had the honour of a tour of this house. It's so sexy! The powder room walls are all mirror, and the surrounding landscape features a James Turrell sky space complete with a leather bed in it. From the bedroom you have a window view into the swimming pool. It is in my opinion, the most hedonistic home ever.
Luxury and glamour!
Holy Concrete!
Holy USS Enterprise!
Bridge to Transporter, lock on!
I have been to this house. It is wonderful and refreshing, informal and heroic. Although some details felt awkward or dated, they did not detract at all from its inspired, creative power. It had the bones of a god.

The 'Glee' star was one of many celebrities who joined the Labor Day Weekend annual benefit concert.
Multi-talented artist Matthew Morrison brought his lethal combo of Broadway-polished singing and dancing skills to Sunday night's "MDA Show of Strength", the annual televised benefit concert held each Labor Day Weekend. The 34-year-old actor was just one of many Hollywood stars who lent their talents to the telethon to help raise funds for the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
The "Hairspray" stage actor, who came into prominence as the well-meaning music teacher Mr. Will Schuester on the hit TV series "Glee", performed the classic "On the Street Where You Live" from the musical "My Fair Lady" which was right up his alley. Morrisson was in his element in his silver-gray suit, dishing out his song and dance routine backed by the band and even doing some flips with his matching hat.
Making the introduction to Morrison's lively performance was former "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul. Opening the show was the Backstreet Boys, who did a medley of their old hit "I Want It That Way" and their new single "In a World Like This". Ryan Seacrest, Enrique Iglesias, Austin Mahone, Luke Bryan and more entertained the folks both in the live audience and at home.
The MDA Telethon was able to raise more than $30 million after the nationwide telecast. The MDA posted a message of thanks on behalf of all those who will benefit from the funds raised to those who generously donated and to everyone involved "for raising funds to continue the progress in the fight against muscle disease."

TV Guide
Not to be outdone by reigning animated Halloween champs "The Simpsons," the whole Toy Story gang is getting ready to take the spooky season by storm with "The Toy Story of Terror" TV special!
We first told you about the project back in October of 2012, and according to TV Guide all is on track for ABC to air "Toy Story of Terror" this October as a 30-minute special that reunites the original voice cast from the Toy Story franchise.
From Pixar, "Toy Story of Terror" follows the adventures of the toys post-Toy Story 3, in which a fun road trip takes a very unexpected turn. "Bonnie is on a road trip to go see grandma with her mom, and the toys are in the trunk," producer Galyn Susman says. "Mom gets a flat tire and they have to spend the night at a motel, and all kinds of chaos ensues."
While Terror will include Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen), Mr. Potato Head (Don Rickles), and Rex (Wallace Shawn), Jessie (Joan Cusack) will have a more prominent role in the special. Additionally, Bonnie's toys — Mr. Pricklepants (Timothy Dalton) and Trixie (Kristen Schaal) — who first appeared in the third installment, will be featured, while we'll also get to actually meet Combat Carl, who briefly appeared in the first film when he was blown up by Sid, who will be voiced by Carl Weathers.
Airing sometime near Halloween, the special will have a horror feel after one of the toys goes missing at the motel. The rest of the gang will find themselves caught up in a mysterious sequence of events that must be solved before they all suffer the same fate. That said, the producers took inspiration from the horror genre — Psycho, Aliens and Predator, in particular — but found the right balance for both adults and children.

Idea of out of town planning session shot down
Council votes against moving annual priorities meeting away from St. Albert
Wednesday, Aug 20, 2014 06:00 am
Council rejected the idea of going on a two-day, out-of-town retreat for its annual strategic priorities planning session.
The past three years that annual meeting, typically held in January, has been held at a hotel in St. Albert. Prior to that the meeting was held out of town for several years.
Coun. Cathy Heron presented a motion to hold the 2015 meeting off-site, one which was defeated in a 4-3 vote.
She said her first experience of the planning session was in 2011, when council went to Sylvan Lake along with senior staff. She said it was a valuable experience.
�I�ve found the last couple years the retreats haven�t been as productive,� she said.
�The last three sessions that we have had in town, people have not showed up on time, they have left early, they have not gone for lunch, they have not attended the dinner after. The parts of the retreat that are important for the team building and the trust-building with administration have been completely lacking the last three years,� Heron said.
She argued against the idea that going to a place like Sylvan Lake in the middle of winter is an entitlement, and suggested the cost would only be a few thousand dollars more.
�A football team that never huddles will fail,� she said. Heron said she wants to work on building the trust level and getting 100 per cent commitment to the process.
Coun. Wes Brodhead said he�d support the motion and that in his experience out-of-town meetings are more productive.
�I�m not looking for another opportunity to leave town. Trust me, I like sleeping in my own bed as much as the next person,� Brodhead said.
Others were not as enthused at the idea.
�Do we think we�re entitled to give ourselves trips?� asked Coun. Sheena Hughes.
Hughes noted the recent travel-related scandals plaguing the provincial government, and suggested the cost increase would be over $10,000.
�This motion shows no respect for tax dollars,� she said.
Hughes said if the meeting was held out of town she wouldn�t go and would instead bring motions forward at a regular council meeting to add or subtract priorities.
Coun. Tim Osborne noted if there�s not a commitment for all of council to go out of town, the result won�t be as positive.
�I�m not going to support this motion because I do believe the outcome will be very similar whether we go out of town or stay here in St. Albert,� Osborne said, adding a challenge for his council colleagues to show up, respect the process in place and provide meaningful input during the meeting.
Coun. Cam MacKay said the practice of going out of town had been changed by a previous council that wanted to send a strong message about being concerned with tax dollars.
�I think it�s a strong message to send just on a matter like this, we�re going to be fiscally responsible,� MacKay said.
Mayor Nolan Crouse said he wasn�t sure how he�d vote, noting he thinks the product of the meetings is of higher quality if they go out of town � but only if everyone shows up.
Heron, Brodhead and Coun. Gilles Prefontaine voted in favour of going out of town for the session, while Crouse, Hughes, MacKay and Osborne voted against the motion, which was defeated.

Child's Play: Proof that not all Gamers are Anti-Social Douchebags
Gamers get a bad reputation for being anti-social and nerdish. Whilst the latter is usually true, The Cookie Jar has decided to draw attention to a fantastic aspect of video game culture.
Child's Play is a charity for children which invites gamers to events with the intent of putting all the money raised through attendance towards helping kids.
So for anyone out there who think that gamers only ever think of themselves?
Suck it.
Hopefully sometime next year The Cookie Jar will be able to host an event in aid of the charity's cause. If anyone out there has any ideas, they are very welcome.
So check out Child's Play at their official website at www.childsplaycharity.org/
If you're feeling really nice and full of christmas spirit, you can make a donation online via paypal.

Frankly Music Delivers Again
Classical Review
We are so accustomed to
Frank Almond's musical leadership in our community that it's possible to take
it for granted. Beyond his sophisticated playing he is an eloquent speaker
about classical music, and has an ability to connect with an audience with
substantial content, remaining interesting and dryly witty. Due to travel I
missed a concert this spring when Almond played music associated with the
remarkable violin he plays, the ex-Lipinski Stradivarius, so I was glad for the
opportunity to hear Tartini's "Devil's Trill" sonata. Tartini was the first
known owner of the Strad Almond plays. One could not resist trying to imagine
what this surprisingly chromatic sonata sounded like on this violin in 1750.
Almond delivered it with style, fiery assertion and blazing bravura.
Also for violin and
piano were four pieces from Ned Rorem's Day
Music and Night Music,
20th-century gems played with lively elegance. Pianist Michael Mizrahi, who
recently joined the faculty at Lawrence University, was impressive in Rorem's
charming "Gnats."
Joseph Johnson joined the ensemble for two piano trios: Mendelssohn's Trio No. 1, and Dvorák's "Dumky" Trio. The combination of Johnson and Almond has grown to a high artistic level, each bringing out the best in one another. The Mendelssohn trio was the best chamber music performance I've heard anywhere this season, lyrical and spirited, with nearly ideal balance. In this concert Mizrahi made the statement that a top-flight pianist has arrived in our region. We're glad to have him.

The Stark County commissioners' desire to build a ramp and fix roads near Countywide Landfill in southern Stark County may be a good idea for Stark County, but trying to stick taxpayers in Wayne County with the bill through the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Solid Waste District is a real load of garbage, say Wayne County commissioners.
"I suggested to allow them to withdraw and then (Stark County) have to live with it," said Wayne County Commissioner Fred Cannon, who said he would vote to allow Stark County to withdraw from the district at a special committee meeting of the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Solid Waste District on Thursday. "(The problem) seems to be in philosophies."
The district governing board, which is made up of three commissioners from each county, was formed by a mandate by the Ohio EPA in the early 1990s to reduce and recycle trash in the tri-county area. The group is now stuck in a stalemate over the proposed building of an interchange ramp at Gracemont Avenue S.W. off I-77 and tensions among commissioners seem to be increasing.
"It's the most frustrating thing I have dealt with (as a commissioner)," said Stark County Commissioner John Dougherty, who has been suggesting for over a year that Stark County withdraw from the group because of apparent irreconcilable differences. "I guarantee you we will have an off-ramp there one day."
The Stark commissioners say the ramp, which would cost the district up to $4.5 million, is needed for the safety of area traffic. Dougherty said the hundreds of semi-trucks going to the landfill are making travel for residents in the area more dangerous.
Tuscarawas and Wayne County commissioners disagree, saying the need to alleviate traffic in the landfill area has not been proven, even by a recent consultant's report which was killed in committee.
Wayne County Commissioner Mark Sheppard said nothing he has seen, heard or read concerning the traffic shows how a ramp would greatly improve safety in the area.
Furthermore, said Sheppard, the ramp would provide privately-owned Countywide Landfill with an unfair advantage over other area landfills.
"It would be an unfair playing field for the other three landfills (in the district)," said out-going Tuscarawas County Commissioner Steve Carlisle, a former chairman of the district. He said building the ramp would be an inadvertent subsidizing of the Countywide Landfill because improving access would unfairly improve the competitiveness of the landfill.
Wayne County commissioner Cheryl Noah agreed with Carlisle, saying she opposes the measure because Countywide Landfill should help pay for the improvements. She said the capital investment would clearly increase the company's bidding abilities for future contracts.
Noah speculated that the ramp would make it easier for the landfill to accept trash from areas other than the 26 counties previously agreed to, suggesting an increase in the tonnage of garbage accepted at the landfill. Currently the landfill receives about 3,000 tons a day, but has applied to take up to 7,000 tons a day.
The underlying problem, said Cannon and Carlisle, is that because the district accepts so much trash into area landfills, particularly in Stark County, the fees the district collects are enormous, which causes competition for funds.
The district receives a $1-per-ton-of-trash fee, called a "tipping fee," which allows the commissioners to fund recycling and conservation programs in the three counties.
Currently there is approximately $12 million in unused tipping fees, said Noah.
"We have so much money we just give it away," said Cannon, referring to the $12 million currently in district coffers. He said having the money is the problem because special interests come to "big daddy" (the district) wanting part of the money.
Dougherty, who said the Stark County landfills are responsible for 82 percent of the tipping fees, said Wayne and Tuscarawas commissioners should be glad Stark County is shouldering the financial burden. Instead, he said, "it's a gift horse in the mouth that they are kicking."
Wayne County generates an estimated 2 percent of total funds at the Mount Eaton Landfill, said Dougherty. However, Cannon argues, because Wayne County trash ends up in the landfills, Wayne County citizens are contributing significantly to the tipping fees.
The stalemate over the issue is leading Stark County commissioners to again try to pass legislation in Columbus during the upcoming session which would allow Stark to withdraw from the district. Similar legislation never made it out of committee during the previous session.
The only other way Stark could withdraw from the district is by a vote of two county commissioners from each county, which will likely not happen, said Carlisle.
"Just because someone gets mad at an issue doesn't mean you pick up your ball and bat and go home like Stark County wants to," said Carlisle. "They are like the bully on the playground. They are upset that they can't control everything -- this is a democracy, not a dictatorship."
Carlisle said because the landfills in Stark County provide the largest percentage of the money generated in the district, it would not be in Tuscarawas County's best interest to allow Stark to withdraw from the district.
Sheppard said allowing Stark to withdraw is something that commissioners may "end up having to do down the road," but he said he would need to be convinced it would not financially strain Wayne County in the long term. He said he is not sure what would happen to programs in Tuscarawas-Wayne if the Stark money was pulled out of the district.
"In my opinion, that is their problem," said Dougherty.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Response card and invitations were done on excellent quality paper. Design was exactly as I expected and the font was clear making them easy to read. Envelope quality excellent as well. I am now a diehard fan of Wedding Paper Divas!"
"These cards are great - simple and elegant. They arrived super quickly and the customer service / designer that assisted us was fantastic. The process was smooth and effortless."
"We ordered in pink which is one of our wedding colors. We are not having a sit down dinner so we decided to not include the entrée choice on the response cards. I was very nervous about ordering the cards since there was no picture of the cards without the entrée choice section. I love how the words were centered on the card. The experts really listen to your comments and do their best to make them look exactly how you want them to look."
"I purchased the ensemble of Invitation, Response card, Insert card and Labels. The paper is perfectly matched on all pieces and looks like I paid several times the actual price. Customer Service was very easy to work with and the ervice was super-fast!!"
"I submitted several design changes online and the designer got everything right the first time. We're having a set menu so instead of a meal selection, I had them include a section for Advice for the Bride and Groom. And I also changed the wording on the responses and added a third option. Overall, it turned out perfectly the first time and I had no review changes. I highly recommend this product!"
