Curbstoning hurts your community in two ways: loss of control and loss of revenue.
Web Content Display Web Content Display
Curbstoning is the unlicensed commercial sale of vehicles for profit. It's not the ordinary
citizen selling one or two vehicles. It's the hustler churning and flipping 20, 50 or more cars a year.
Research shows that up to one in five vehicles sold outside of licensed automotive dealerships are not legal private party car sales, but are in fact illegal sales of curbstoned vehicles.
Your city may already have ordinances against curbstoning, and for good reason. Despite advances in public transportation, cars remain essential to a healthy local economy. Businesses, shoppers, families, tourists - they all rely on cars and trucks. A well-regulated local used car market helps ensure that those vehicles are safe and sound.
However, curbstoners operate in the shadows, ignoring regulations, licenses, and laws. They're essentially con artists, luring transactions away from your community's licensed businesses, taking money from unsuspecting consumers, and then vanishing - only to reappear days or even hours later with another dressed-up wreck to sell.
To add insult to injury, curbstoners often use city streets and parking lots as places to showcase their "inventory." As those illicit business operations ramp up their activity, they trigger an increase in traffic - and crime - along key commuting corridors, while simultaneously taking valuable parking spaces away from local residents and businesses.
Because curbstoners operate outside the system, much of their profits are taken "tax-free," with little sales tax revenue reaching strained city coffers. Add in the lack of revenue from the licenses required of most businesses, and the cumulative effect on your city's budget can be substantial.
The passage and enforcement of anti-curbstoning regulations help your city take back economic control, support local businesses, and protect the public.

Wesley Saunders scored a career-best 27 points Sunday (Joe Murphy).
NEW YORK – Wesley Saunders scored a Harvard season-high and a personal career-high 27 points, shooting 8-of-11 from the field and 10-of-10 from the foul line, but the Harvard men's basketball team fell on the road at Columbia, 78-63, Sunday afternoon.
Saunders extended his streak of reaching 10+ points to 20 games, while Siyani Chambers tallied 12 points and went 8-of-10 from the charity stripe for Harvard, who falls to 13-7 overall and 5-1 in the Ivy League. Steve Frankoski scored 25 points for Columbia, who improves to 10-10 and 2-4 in conference action.
Steve Moundou-Missi recorded a career-high six blocks for the Crimson, who will be back in action Feb. 15-16, as the Crimson plays host to Penn and Princeton in Cambridge, Mass. The Lions owned a 33-22 edge in rebounds and went 9-of-17 from beyond the arc (.529). Both team shots well from the foul line, with Harvard going 23-of-28 (.821) and Columbia finishing 13-of-15 (.867).
After Columbia opened a 5-1 advantage, Wesley Saunders converted an and-one to bring the Crimson within one, 5-4, and then Laurent Rivard scored on a reverse layup as the Crimson took the lead, 6-5. Harvard went up, 10-9, when Saunders made two free throws, followed by a three-pointer from Rivard, 13-9. After Christian Webster nailed a 3-pointer, Steve Moundou-Missi scored on a layup on the break, as the Crimson led, 18-13.
Rivard added another triple, as Harvard moved in front, 21-19, and then Chambers drained two foul shots to keep the Crimson in front, 25-24. After the Lions grabbed a 30-27 advantage, Saunders nailed a long jumper from the wing, but the Lions went back up by three, 32-29, at the final media timeout of the first half.
With Columbia leading, 35-29, Saunders made another long jump shot, 35-31, and then hit a trey to keep the Crimson within four, 38-34, at the half. Saunders had 14 points at the break, while the Crimson shot 4-of-8 from beyond the arc (.500) and 10-of-11 from the foul line (.909) as a team.
Saunders opened scoring in the second with a jumper from the left side, 40-36, and then Moundou-Missi drove the lane and finished with a strong two-handed dunk, 42-38. After the Lions went up by 10, 48-38, Webster went baseline and finished with a layup. Saunders added a layup with 14:06 to play, as the Crimson got back within five, 48-43.
With less than 11 minutes to play and with Columbia leading, 51-43, Webster sent a pass to Moundou-Missi for a reverse layup, 51-45. After Chambers hit a bucket to make it a four-point game, the Lions responded with an 8-0 run to pull ahead, 59-47. At the 6:50 mark, Saunders headed to the charity stripe and hit both, getting Harvard within 10, 59-49.
After Columbia went on a 9-1 run to grab its largest lead, 68-50, Saunders ended the Lions' streak with an and-one and the foul shot, 68-53. With Harvard trailing, 75-57, Chambers drained two free throws, and then Chambers went to the line again and made two more, 75-61, with 1:53 to go.
At the 1:45 mark, Webster added another free throw for Harvard, 75-62, but the Crimson could not inch closer.

GIMPS has discovered a new largest known prime number: 282589933-1 (24,862,048 digits)
A probable-prime which is composite is called a pseudoprime. (At one time all probable primes were called pseudoprimes, but now the terminology has been corrected.) The smallest examples of pseudoprimes for bases 2, 3, 5, and 7 are as follows.
341 = 11.31 is a 2-PRP, (Sarrus 1819)It is harder to find examples of composites which are probable primes (or better, strong probable primes) to several bases, but this is always possible [AGP94a].
Let tn be the least composite that is a strong probable prime for the first n primes. We now know:
t1 = 23 . 89Knowing tn gives an efficient primality test for small numbers: all numbers less than tn which pass SPRP tests fore the first n primes are indeed prime!
Arnault found a 337 digit number which passed strong PRP tests for each of the 46 primes below 200 [Arnault95].
It is interesting to note that in 1950 Lehmer, using the weaker definition an = a (mod n) for probable/pseudo-prime, discovered 2*73*1103 = 161038 is an even "pseudoprime" base two.

Recently, one of our team members has been watching the Netflix original series of "Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On." The series covers pornography, dating apps and how our society views sex in modern times.
On the second episode, "Love Me Tinder," a handful of people ranging from their 20's to 40 and their interaction with dating apps. Some looking for love – others using dating apps for hookups and viewing apps as a superficial way to meet attractive singles. The episode is a reality check to viewers and app users to really know who you are spending your times with.
Tips from certified Dating Coach Tara Richter:
With online dating sometimes you find someone worth hiding your profile for a while to see where and how the relationship develops. Everything seems great at first, then as time passes you begin to notice little quirks about them you can't stand: how he scraps his fork again the plate while eating and sounds like a bear in hibernation during the night. Finally you decide it just isn't there like you thought in the beginning. It's time to have "the talk" and move on. There's no point (for either person) trying to force something that simply is not there.

John49123100 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 61 designs submitted by 32 freelance designers.
HoseTrak Australia
I'm starting a new company that will track the life of hydraulic hoses on equipment, via RFID technology. This is an additional aspect to an existing venture, but not related ... ie: the companies are not financially related. So I don't want the logo to be anything like the existing business. So having said that, i won't tell you the existing business ...... This logo will initially be used on the product, either screen printed, or possibly moulded in the silicone product itself. Depending on the intricacies of the winning design. Like i said this product is a silicone band that will have an RFID microchip inside it and be scanned by an RFID reader to link to an online database (web site design will follow, so the winner here will be in the box seat for more cash!) I'm hoping to get across to the customer a sense of accuracy, in data and information as well as a sense of speed. A clean crisp design is required with no fancy frills.
Large corporations, Mining companies, Offshore Oil and Gas and OEM manufacturers. These sorts of companies are looking at increased productivity without increased costs. By tracking the life of hoses, we can predict downtime and plan maintenance hence saving money for the customer in the long run. The white collar worker will be the target customer. They want innovation at no cost and increased profits. End of Story. So all in all a lovely bunch of people!
I have a picture in my head of the word "HOSETRAK" slightly in italics, but quite bold. Bright Orange in colour. The word Australia below this word in thin black font, like the thin black outline of "HOSETRAK" ..... so i DONT want this !!!!, That's why i'm asking for help. I need something that will get this accurate speedy feel, but not as bad as i have described above. The product is a silicone band on a hydraulic hose with a microchip in it. The hose is similar to hoses made by Parker (http://www.parkerhose.com), but this is only to get ideas on what the product is, i don't think i want too much reliance on graphics in the logo. Or letters made from hoses, like a crappy letter 'S'.
Best of luck and thanks for giving this a go even if you are not the eventual winner.

HACKENSACK, N.J. — Three months after fleeing a Florida rehabilitation center, Amanda, a 24-year-old from Woodcliff Lake, N.J., was using heroin again. She stole her grandmother's credit card, bought thousands of dollars worth of electronics and sold them for drugs.
Which is how Amanda's parents came to spend a Friday evening this July driving across New Jersey, their strung-out daughter in the back seat, looking for a facility that could treat her.
"We called eight or nine places," Amanda's father, James, recalled. "Nobody had a bed. Nobody."
Insurance wouldn't cover detoxification in an emergency room, rehabilitation clinics wouldn't take her until she was clean, but every detoxification unit had days-long waits for admission, James said. At a hospital in Summit, James encountered hallways full of "moaning and groaning" addicts waiting for beds and insurance clearance, he said. James was told at the front desk that if he paid cash, there might be a bed for Amanda the next morning.
A friend gave Amanda some Suboxone, a drug used to treat opioid addiction, so she could spend the night at her parents' house. The next morning, they found a facility in Kearny that could take her.
Amanda's story is typical. As heroin and prescription painkillers ravage parts of the state, at least a third of New Jersey addicts seeking treatment cannot get it. A shortage of treatment facilities, coupled with high costs and insurance hurdles, leaves tens of thousands each year without adequate or timely care, and their families scrambling for help. In 2009, the latest year for which state figures are available, at least 30,000 adults and 15,000 adolescents were turned away from treatment.
Thousands more do receive treatment, only to cycle in and out of emergency rooms and rehabilitation programs, their inpatient stints cut short by insurance plans, lack of cash, or relapse. Even the most comprehensive insurance plans tend to limit coverage of inpatient care to 14 days or less, leaving families to choose between paying thousands of dollars out-of-pocket for the standard 28-day treatment or pulling an addict out of care.
"There is without doubt a treatment shortfall in this state," said Dan Meara of the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, who estimated that some places turn away half those seeking treatment. "There is not enough funding, and there are not enough beds."
And the situation is growing worse, placing a burden on the state's hospitals and criminal justice system. Over the past five years, the number of emergency room visits for behavioral health issues has nearly doubled — much of that increase attributed to substance abuse. The number of drug-induced deaths is also on the rise, with hundreds throughout the state and thousands nationwide dying from prescription painkiller and heroin overdoses.
This surge, coupled with concern over crime and violence associated with drug addiction and mental illness, has spurred the federal government into action. Health-care reform is expected to extend substance abuse treatment benefits to 62.5 million more Americans by 2020. And on Friday, the Obama administration announced regulations that will require insurance companies to cover addiction and mental health care in the same way physical illnesses are covered.
But it will take time for these regulations, which do not extend to Medicaid managed-care plans, to become part of the health-care system, which is fraught with delays in all areas of treatment. With addiction — when even small gaps in treatment can mean relapse or death — these interruptions are demoralizing, terrifying and sometimes fatal.
In New Jersey, middle-class families may be hit hardest by the cost of addiction treatment. They often do not qualify for public services that serve the uninsured and indigent, and which can be more rigorous than private rehabilitation. Nor can they afford to pay out-of-pocket for treatment, which can cost more than $1,000 a week for private inpatient care.
"The middle class is the one that gets squeezed," said Frank Greenagel Jr., recovery counselor at Rutgers University and chairman of a state task force on heroin and opiate addiction. "They have insurance, but maybe insurance doesn't cover it all."
Even families like Amanda's that have resources — financial stability, good insurance, patience — find that it is extremely difficult to break the grip of addiction. By this summer, Amanda's 27-year-old brother had already been through eight facilities, from California to Maine, for his addiction to prescription painkillers and heroin. James has estimated that he has spent $400,000, not including travel and legal expenses, on his kids' addictions. They went through treatment centers so often that they now gets "alumni" discounts.
Take Judy Castiglione of Jefferson: She is $90,000 in debt after three years of trying to keep her son William off heroin. "Finding an open bed was almost impossible," she said, and insurance rarely paid for it. In the meantime, she said, she was "Crazy Mom": She had GPS built into her son's car, monitored his phone and wound through downtown Paterson in a white minivan, armed with a baseball bat, searching for dealers.
Or Joe Sardonia, who works for the Monmouth County Parks Department, who said caring for his 20-year-old daughter, a heroin addict, has left him frustrated and broke.
"In most cases, when my daughter wanted help, she couldn't get it," Sardonia said.
And then there is Kim Kaupp of Mendham: Kaupp pretended to be his son, Jack, while on the phone with the insurance company, claiming to be high in order to secure treatment. Jack Kaupp died at age 26 in February 2012: His father found him in a Morris Plains welfare hotel, a needle in his arm.
Their stories, along with interviews with dozens of parents, clinicians and authorities, portray a broken treatment system that often compounds the misery of addiction. They show the challenges that New Jersey and the United States face in translating policy into effective and affordable care.
But there are also success stories: programs that work, addicts now sober. Officials at Bergen County public services try to find a bed for any resident who needs it. State officials are mobilizing to stem the tide of addiction. For the parents whose children have turned a corner, this is cause for hope and cautious optimism.
The path to recovery begins with detoxification. But even as more New Jersey residents — particularly suburban young adults — are seeking help for heroin and opiate addiction, fewer hospitals offer treatment.
Bergen Regional Medical Center now has the only designated detoxification facility in the county; its 54 beds are almost always full, with 12 to 18 new patients arriving each day, said Thomas Rosamilia, vice president for behavioral health services.
"There is nothing harder than sending somebody home without a bed," he said. "You never know if they're going to come back."
The number of behavioral health cases in New Jersey emergency rooms jumped from 289,851 in 2007, to 521,518 in 2012 — an 80 percent increase, said Kerry McKean Kelly of the New Jersey Hospital Association. "The physicians and nurses in our ERs will tell you pretty consistently that substance abuse is a major contributor to the overall growth."
Emergency rooms will stabilize patients and release them even though the patients have limited access to further treatment, Kelly said. Statewide, families and clinicians alike report that long-term inpatient and outpatient treatment programs often cannot take them.
"At that point, once you're clean, where do you go?" said Sue Debiak, coordinator of the Bergen County Office of Alcohol and Drug Dependency. "It is astounding to me that people can't get help. People are driving around looking for a place to put their son. You don't see hospitals closing diabetes or cancer care services."
From July 2009 to July 2010, state-licensed treatment facilities admitted 78,313 patients. In the 12 months before July 1, 2013, that number was nearly 85,000. Some 45 percent were for heroin and opiate addiction, more than any other drugs.
At the same time, the state's expanding drug court program — which aims to treat, rather than incarcerate, certain drug offenders — is sending more people into mandatory care, further increasing the squeeze in publicly funded treatment centers. Officials say the 102 state treatment facilities may be near a saturation point.
Jennifer Kaupp said finding a bed for her son, Jack, was a "full-time job." The Kaupps spent upward of $300,000 on a "merry-go-round" of treatments for Jack, maybe 10 percent of which was covered by insurance.
"They know you are desperate, they know you will do anything," said Jennifer Kaupp. "You are watching your kid kill himself."
In the end, the Kaupps let Jack go — he spent his last months homeless, moving between shelters and charity facilities.
"The professionals said you cannot keep enabling him," Kim Kaupp said. "Just let him hit bottom, and he'll eventually come back."
"But he never did," said Jennifer Kaupp.
Judy Castiglione still weeps when she remembers reporting her son, William, to the police. And how he cried out for her as he was led down the driveway in handcuffs. "Part of me regrets it because now he has a felony record," Castiglione said. "But part of me doesn't because I think he would be dead today."
The criminal justice system is now seen as the best way to get somebody into treatment, parents say — especially drug courts, which are tough and thorough.
"In New Jersey, the only way to get help is if you commit a crime," said James, whose son is now in the drug court program.

STORRS — A year ago, UConn had to master the art of playing with nothing to lose. While the Huskies had their shortcomings, lack of motivation — a sense of playing as if it didn't really matter because they were ineligible for the postseason — was not among them.
The Huskies played with chips on their shoulders, and by all preseason projections, they overachieved, finishing 20-10. And on March 9, they put the basketballs away.
"Last year, I cried after the last game because we couldn't play anymore," Shabazz Napier said. "We all came back to win a championship. At least this year, we know we'll have the chance to do something."
For the new season, Kevin Ollie's second as coach, there will be different goal. Their Academic Progress Rate problems behind them, the NCAA sanctions over and done, if conference realignment has not yet worked out to the program's greatest desires, the Huskies at least know what conference they will be in. UConn is on stable footing with an experienced roster and will attempt to add new and exciting history to the era closed with Jim Calhoun's retirement. The Huskies were picked second, behind national champion Louisville, in the American Athletic Conference coaches poll, and they are ranked 18th (Associated Press) and 19th (USA Today) in the national polls.
"We're not chasing national championships," Ollie told an audience in Cromwell this fall, "national championships are chasing us."
"We know how it felt last year, to put everything on the line and not play for the ring," guard Ryan Boatright said. "There were a lot of teams that we watched in the tournament that we beat, or lost by a buzzer-beater. Marquette beat us by a buzzer-beater, and they went to the Sweet 16. It hurt watching the tournament."
Napier, Boatright and forward DeAndre Daniels were all considered fringe NBA draft prospects but all stayed to pursue a title and enhance their pro prospects. No one transferred. The only players from last season who will not suit up for the season opener against Maryland are R.J. Evans, who was a fifth-year transfer last season, and Enosch Wolf, a backup center who, his scholarship not renewed because of off-court troubles, signed to play pro ball in Europe.
"We're going to play fast and physical," Boatright said.
Lasan Kromah, 6 feet 6, transferred from George Washington to play as a grad student and figures to be an upgrade off the bench. The thin frontcourt is bolstered by two freshmen, 7-foot Amida Brimah, who should have an immediate impact as a shot blocker, and 6-9 Kentan Facey, who should add a long player who can run the court like a guard. Terrence Samuel, a 6-4 freshman from Brooklyn whom Ollie has compared to Marcus Williams, adds depth in the backcourt.
"They had depth issues last year," Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin said, "and when you have those type of issues, injuries become a factor because the season is so long and every game is such a grind.
"Their perimeter play is as good as anybody's. The X-factor for them is DeAndre Daniels. He went from a heralded freshman that the league was a little too physical for, to his sophomore year ... I give the kid credit. He made the adjustment. A lot of kids don't."
Though some consider the 6-9 Daniels an NBA small forward prospect with upside, he has not been included in some top 100 lists and was not among the coaches' picks for first- or second-team mention in the conference.
"People are not noticing him, and he knows that and we know that, and that's going to add fuel to his fire," Ollie said.
Napier, 6-1, and Boatright, 6-0, return to form one of the best backcourts in the country. Napier averaged 17.1 points, scoring 55 in 45 overtime minutes to make the difference in several games. Boatright averaged 15.4 points and vows to be more disciplined.
"UConn's backcourt," said Louisville coach Rick Pitino, "is awesome."
Omar Calhoun, at 6-6, played a hybrid big guard/small forward role last season and averaged 11.1 points, showing a knack for clutch three-point shots. After surgery to correct impingement in both hips, he has promised to show more as a sophomore.
Daniels averaged 12.1 points and 5.5 rebounds and proved a matchup nightmare for bigger, slower power forwards, a matchup UConn figures to exploit again.
Up front, Tyler Olander, who recovered from a broken foot and survived two off-the-court incidents in the offseason, is back in Ollie's good graces and, at 6-10, 230, must improve on his 3.7 rebounds a game to give the Huskies the muscle they need. Phil Nolan, a 6-10 sophomore, will push Olander for the starting job at center.
Opponents outrebounded UConn by 5.5 last season, and though the Huskies found ways to win when they were grossly outmuscled on the boards, that is no place for a championship contender to live.
Niels Giffey joins Napier and Olander as remaining veterans of the 2011 national champs, and after a summer in the European championships has returned a more grizzled veteran. Sophomore Leon Tolksdorf, who was not a factor last season, played with the German Under-20 team over the summer and came back trimmer and quicker.
"Experience wins you games sometimes," Napier said. "Coach Ollie, he's a mastermind. He's got great coaches on the side; those guys have a lot of intel. They understand how much talent we've got, and they're going to work with it."
The Huskies will find out early how good they are, with nonconference games against Maryland, Florida, Stanford, Boston College, Washington and possibly Indiana, depending on how the 2K Classic shakes out at Madison Square Garden. The new AAC schedule will include two games against Louisville, two against Memphis, also a top 20 team, and two against Cincinnati and SMU, teams that could be ranked as the season goes along.

TULSA, Okla. (March 2, 2017) – Chris Beach doesn't mince words.
"North Tulsa is an area of a lot of hurt, a lot of pain," he said, ticking off a list of woes – poverty, unemployment, crime and illiteracy, among others – that long have plagued its residents.
Fortunately for those who live in north Tulsa, Beach is as passionate as he is candid. The founder of Tulsa YouthWorks, Beach moved to the area more than 15 years ago, and for the last 10 has poured his time and energy into creating a sea change. He has done so by working with the future of north Tulsa, its children.
"We really felt like, 'These kids are very talented. Is there something we can do?'" Beach said. "Not just help them with food, not just help them with recreation and field trips, but is there a way we can actually empower them to help change their own community?"
Beach and those at Tulsa YouthWorks work with about 200 kids a year, using an after-school program and various camps to spend more than 200 days a year with them. The organization's Pizza Factory teaches the children how to make pizzas and serve others.
The service piece is critical, Beach said. In addition to making one pizza they take home for their families, each child makes another pizza to give to homeless or other needy north Tulsa residents.
"The reason why we have them go out… If all we do is serve the kids and help them out with their lives, they'll be appreciative, but they're still in a victim mindset because of all the stuff that they've gone through in their life," Beach said. "When we empower them to go out and serve others, it changes their whole mindset."
Beach is the 29th person to be featured in Arvest Bank's People Helping People video series. The series is designed to celebrate individuals in the communities Arvest serves who are uniquely making a difference. The idea came from the bank's mission statement: "People helping people find financial solutions for life."
There are other components to Tulsa YouthWorks, including kids who go from making and delivering pizzas to making presentations to churches, businesses and civic groups in an effort to sell more pizzas. Part of each sale goes into a college savings fund in the name of the child who sold the pizza.
Again, the idea is empowerment.
"A lot of the kids, they start out when they're in kindergarten," Beach said. "If you can imagine, all these years of making pizzas and selling pizzas, we hope to have a good, substantial amount for them when they're ready for college.
"We're looking for companies out there who want to match the children, match all the scholarship funds so that when they go, it's not even what they've sold, but even double that. Again, the number one reason we find why these children don't go to college, flat-out their parents don't have the money to send them, and so that means the children don't get equipped to live out their dreams."
Even for the kids who may not go to college, Beach believes Tulsa YouthWorks provides them with a foundation for success by helping them academically and teaching them life skills.
"The biggest ways that we define success at YouthWorks is, 'Do the kids come and do they always feel loved here?'" Beach said. "Do they feel accepted? Do they feel like somebody actually believes in them? Do they feel like somebody is going to be there for them no matter what? That's why we're here 204 days out of the year."
The award-winning videos are available via Arvest's social media channels – YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and the Arvest Blog – and the bank will make related posts each time a new story appears. Additionally, Arvest social media followers can help spread the word about these inspiring community members by sharing, liking and retweeting the videos. Beach's video launched on March 2.

Stocks are near the high of the day in today's holiday shortened trading session.
Earlier this morning, markets got a lift after headlines crossed that the ECB would forego $9 billion in future profits on Greek debt and that a buyback of Greek debt is more likely.
As Joe Weisenthal said, "It's nothing huge, and there's still no absolute final deal, but something seems to be materializing."

The growth in property values continues a multi-year trend that has seen the total value more than double since 2005. The total value of San Juan County properties, released by Assessor Howard Randall on May 30, is $1,078,458,569.
The vast majority of growth, $91 million, is from centrally assessed properties, including massive oil and gas fields, mining operations and other industrial assets. The top 14 properties account for more than 62 percent of the total property value in the county (see the chart on page 2).
Property values in local communities have also grown. The total value of properties in Monticello exceed $69 million, while the total value of properties in Blanding exceed $88 million. That represents less than a one percent increase over one year in Monticello and nearly a ten percent increase in Blanding.
A large portion of the increase in Blanding is due to a reassessment of local commercial properties, mostly "Main Street" businesses. In 2012, Randall led the first reassessment of commercial properties in many years. The impact was dramatic in Blanding and at the Gouldings properties at Monument Valley.
Much of the growth in Blanding is due to reassessment and not to new growth. Since any increase in value due to reassessment is offset by adjustments to the "certified rate", it is anticipated that the tax rate will drop significantly in Blanding.
The impact of reassessment is smaller in the county. According to County Clerk Norman Johnson, if the certified rate is adopted by the county and the school district, the tax rates would drop approximately two percent.
The certified rate is the rate that would result in the same revenue as the prior year. New growth is not factored into the certified rate, meaning total property tax collections can increase as a result of new growth, even while rates stay the same or are lower.
Increased property values means a growing tax base and has also fueled a controversy. In general, taxing entities generally have kept rates level by adopting the certified rate but have increased their revenues as the value of new properties grow.
San Juan County Commissioner Phil Lyman has vowed to cut expenditures and tax rates. If the county were to absorb the growth in property values this year and keep property tax collections the same as 2011, Johnson estimates the tax rate for the county would drop by 18 percent.
While breaking the $1 billion barrier is evidence of significant growth in recent years, the value of properties last exceeded $1 billion 30 years ago, in 1982. Driven by the high value of uranium, oil and gas properties, San Juan County had one of the highest valuations in the state.
However, the value began a steady fall over the subsequent 20 years. In the late 1990s, values dropped below $400 million. In 2005, property values began a steady multi-year growth, from $441 million in 2005 to $1.078 billion in 2012.
Discounting for inflation, the current property value of $1.078 billion is worth approximately $462 million in 1982 dollars. As a result, although the tax base has returned to the 1982 levels, the buying power of that base is less than half of the previous value.

Giant Factory Off-Road Team rider Marcelo Gutierrez won the opening race of the IXS Downhill Cup race Sunday in Bariloche, Argentina, conquering the challenging course on his Glory Advanced team bike to beat second-place finisher Mauricio Acuna by a tight margin of 1.8 seconds.
"It was very loose and challenging terrain to race on," Gutierrez said after his win. "The track is steep, physical and technical."
One week earlier Gutierrez finished second at another race in Bariloche, the Open Shimano Cerro Catedral. The seven-time national champion from Colombia was disappointed with that result, and said he was happy to move up a spot at the IXS event and take the win.
"Eight days ago I finished second and came away from the Open Shimano feeling bad that I didn't get the win," he said. "I'm happy now to erase that feeling. I made a couple mistakes in my finals run here, but I still achieved the result I was hoping for. Now I can leave feeling good about these two races in Argentina."
The South American swing marked the first events of the year for Gutierrez on his 2018 race setup. His Glory Advanced team bike is now set up with DVO suspension front and rear. He also wore the new Giant Shuttle shoe for both events. For Gutierrez, the Argentina races serve as perfect tune-ups for the upcoming World Cup season.
"Racing in Argentina always brings back good memories," Gutierrez said. "The warmth of the people, the atmosphere, the food all makes this a great place to ride. I hope that these races increase the level of competition here, and we see new generations of riders. And why not dream of bringing a World Cup to this side of the world."

Due to be announced in May, experts now say revised Part L is unlikely to appear until April 2014
The roadmap for changes to Part L was supposed to be published in May 2013, however proposed changes have not yet been revealed and professionals are concerned the delay could signal a further watering down of environmental targets, putting zero carbon plans at risk.
Speaking to The AJ's sister title Construction News a DCLG spokesperson insisted 'there was no delay' with the revisions to Part L regulations.He told Construction News: 'They will be out shortly. That's all I can say.'
However changes to the Building Regulations are usually made in the months of April or October, and the lack of news regarding Part L has led industry experts to believe changes will not now be introduced until April 2014.
The hold-ups have been criticised for causing problems to architects, developers and product manufacturers, who have been gearing up for the change in policy.
The Coalition renewed its commitment to zero carbon in this year's Budget, promising that a detailed plan and response to consultations on energy efficiency requirements in the Building Regulations.
The UK-GBC has called on the government to renew their target for all new homes to be zero carbon by 2016.
Paul King, chief executive of the UK-GBC, said: 'It's been almost three months since the government restated its commitment to zero carbon, promising an announcement by May. Yet two weeks on from this date we are still in the dark about the future direction of this essential policy.
'What builders need is certainty - and this is anything but. While the Coalition continues to dither over zero carbon, product manufacturers and the supply chain are losing out, putting jobs and much needed growth in the construction sector at risk.'
Matt Mahony, policy executive at the British Woodworking Federation agreed: 'The government is caught in a balancing act and will have been trying to ensure that the new rules, which are meant to fit in with plans to ensure all new homes are zero carbon from 2016, are also compatible with the Coalition's stated aim to reduce excessive and costly regulation on businesses.
'For joinery businesses wanting to know how these changes will affect the energy performance of the products that they manufacture, the advice, as before, is to 'watch this space''
WSP's sustainability director David Bownass added: 'Given the lack of ambition in the proposed Part L 2013 changes, particularly for dwellings, and the uncertainty in even implementing a small step towards the Fabric Energy Efficiency (FEE) standard in 2013, the already "watered down" zero carbon proposals in 2016 must be in jeopardy. The delay only adds to the uncertainty and undermines the Government's own ambitions for growth through construction'.

Identity validation is a crucial capability across the travel journey. Whether it's at check-in, when you drop your bags or at the gate, there are often multiple ID checkpoints. With the continuous cycle of testing and prototype deployment in travel, your face could very well be your boarding pass on your next flight or perhaps the one after. In this article, explore your check-in of the future with UNIGLOBE experts.
"Biometrics, such as fingerprints, are now commonplace security tools. And facial recognition software is already deployed across the world to match transiting passengers with databases of known individuals. However, in its current use for security, facial recognition technology has no active impact on the traveler experience," says a UNIGLOBE expert.
"While we all want to be safe while traveling, it would be nice to benefit from surveillance culture in other ways. Introducing it to the traveller experience allows for greater benefit beyond security. Though, just like with biometrics collected at immigration stations, the protection of data continues to be essential," adds the expert.
Using facial recognition at an airport check-in kiosk can potentially save time that would otherwise be spent entering a record ID or destination information. Facial recognition can also be useful at other points in travel, such as when a passenger is boarding a plane or checking into a hotel.
In order to increase accuracy, other biometric identifiers are in use or under experimentation: for example, a traveler's fingerprints, voice patterns, iris patterns, gait, and ear shape, among others.
Future authentication systems are likely to analyze multiple biometric factors to help optimize security and convenience for businesses and travelers alike. Every person has a unique set of biometric identifiers which, taken together, are virtually impossible to spoof.
Now, keep your face on and check-in to the future!

Fact: GMO's have not been proven safe, and the long-term health risks on humans of genetically modified foods have not been adequately investigated.
We have a Right to Know What's in our Food
We Currently Eat Genetically Engineered Food, But Don't Know It
The Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods Are Unclear
The issue of GM food safety was first discussed at a meeting of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the World Health Organization (WHO) and biotech representatives in 1990. The "substantial equivalence" concept was proposed in early 1996. The adoption of the concept of substantial equivalence allowed permission to market and sell new foods without any safety or toxicology tests as long as they were not too different in chemical composition to foods already on the market. [FDA GRAS proposal] To decide if a modified product is substantially equivalent, the product is tested by the manufacturer for unexpected changes in a limited set of variables such as toxins, nutrients or allergens that are known to be present in the unmodified food. If these tests show no significant difference between the modified and unmodified products, then no further food safety testing is required.

Group uses video to protest land swap between city, DPS
A group fighting a land swap in southeastern Denver between the city and Denver Public Schools produced a slick video to argue the case that now awaits a decision by the Court of Appeals.
The Friends of Denver Parks want to stop the swap that was approved by City Council to give DPS city owned property near Hampden Heights to build a school in exchange for a downtown DPS building that will be used as a domestic violence resource center.
The group, headed by neighbors of the property now known as Hampden Heights North Park, has taken extraordinary steps to fight the swap — gathering signatures in a failed attempt to force the decision onto the ballot, taking the city to court, appealing the ruling and now promoting a video by K.C. Keefer, "Hampden Heist: The Abduction of a Denver Park."

2001 Ford F150 - Project Sinatra Part III: A Matter Of Breathing
BBK And Magnaflow Tag Team Our Supercrew Project
Our '01 Ford Supercrew, which has been dubbed Project Sinatra, has been languishing in a sad state of disarray and ill running for some time, so we thought it was time to give some life back to our ride. For any of you who don't recall the truck, it was featured on our cover way back in July 2001. Back then, it was rolling on 20-inch wheels and had been 'bagged. Then a bit later, it was suddenly lifted with 33s and 16-inch wheels. Of course, the truck was supercharged and had an after-cat exhaust. For a while, it was a parts runner, a daily driver, and an overall employee wreck. We never did have the 4.6L V-8 running quite right-since the engine never had an intake, there weren't any headers on the truck, and the after-cat would make some crazy rattling noises. We wanted to represent it properly, so we sought the assistance of Ford superstars, BBK. They sent us boxes of parts, along with Brian Rogers to install them while we clicked off pictures of the build. Brian beat his knuckles to death and our Ford even managed to draw blood, but in the end we won the war and spun the engine hard on the dyno. After messing around with a couple of different exhaust setups, we couldn't quite figure out why our SuperCrew was still lolly-gagging with a blower shoving 6 psi of atmosphere into it. A trip to MagnaFlow answered all of our questions and more. Check it out.
From The Driver SeatFactory computers are not able to make changes too far from their preprogrammed parameters. Our Ford SuperCrew was paying for that inability to adjust enough to run properly. We'll be getting the truck on the dyno again-check out Volume 33, Issue 10, for that story-but with a Ford-trained Diablo tuner who can make the necessary changes with his trusty laptop computer. Until then, we'll just enjoy the fact the exhaust does not rattle anymore, and we still have 14 more peak ponies than we started. Under the hood, the open filter element and cold-air intake from BBK make our truck actually sound like there is a blower in there somewhere, which is exciting since the stock intake really kept the blower whine to an inconspicuous squeak. Along the bang-for-your-buck realm, we'll see how it all ties together with a computer tune.

- Summary
This exquisite 100% single-estate extra-virgin olive oil comes from the historic Altomena estate in Tuscany, situated high in the hills overlooking the Arno valley. Because the area's soil and microclimate are ideal for growing olives, the estate's land has been cultivated for more than a thousand years. Grown with out pesticides, the fruit is hand picked early in the season and immediately cold-pressed to retain its deep fruity flavors and the fresh and spicy aromas. Four classic varietals are used to produce this perfectly balanced oil: Frantoio, Moraiolo, Pendolino (3%, Leccino. The golden-green oil is exceptionally fragrant with grassy notes, with a spicy taste and a pleasantly peppery finish. Use in vinaigrettes, as a dip for crusty breads, and as a finishing drizzle for grilled foods, bean dishes and crisp-tender vegetables.
- 25 oz.
- Product of Italy.
- Ingredients
- 100% extra virgin olive oil (89% Frantoio, 6% Moraiolo, 3% Pendolino, 2% Leccino).

Rated 5 out of 5 by Patty from my favorite I have used this for eight or so years now after a trip to Tuscany where we shot episodes of Home At Last! at the Altomena estate. Our hosts treated us to dinner at beautiful family-operated restaurant in the hills surrounding Altomena. I tasted heaven that evening in the form lightest handmade pasta (lasagna) floating in Altomena Olive Oil. (perfection) and a memory to last a lifetime.Date published: 2018-05-10Rated 5 out of 5 by Duke1 from Fantastic Olive Oil This is a wonderful flavorful oil. Peppery finish on the back of the palate. Use for dipping bread and drizzling on tomatoes and burrata. Will also be good on vegetables.Date published: 2016-04-26Rated 5 out of 5 by Abb84 from The Best Tuscan Oil You can Buy! Altomena extra virgin olive oil is by far the best Tuscan oil available on the market. I have personally visited the Altomena estate in Tuscany and met the producer. During the harvest, he oversees each phase of production; from harvesting the olives to bottling the oil-I know of very few producers in Tuscany who are as attentive to detail as he is. In fact, if you visit the estate you will see award after award decorating the walls. Chemical analysis of his oil show high polyphenols which is evident by the very peppery taste. A bottle of this oil is worth every penny. I use this oil on everything: salads, vegetables, bread, and I put a small tsp in my son's oatmeal in the morning.Date published: 2014-03-13

NEW YORK - During a day of press interviews for Jeff Nichols' second film, "Take Shelter," a publicist scurried back and forth looking for the director. After some frantic searching, she realized the flannel shirt-clad Nichols was sitting right in front of her, casually chatting among journalists.
The 34-year-old, Little Rock, Ark.-native may be unassuming, but he's becoming harder to overlook. Next week, he'll release his third film, the Mississippi River coming-of-age tale "Mud," a movie that confirms Nichols as one of the most promising young filmmakers in the country, a personal storyteller with an instinct for the kind of classically American films of Steven Spielberg or Paul Newman.
With his indie debut "Shotgun Stories," his critical breakout "Take Shelter," and now "Mud," an ode to young love starring Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon, Nichols has gradually grown in scale and skill. It's the kind of ascent Hollywood notices, but despite studio offers, he's so far stuck to writing his own scripts.
"It's tempting the same way it's tempting to become a garbage man," Nichols said in an interview by phone from his home in Austin, Texas. "It pays pretty well. You have your hours. You do your job."
"I'm not taking that route," he says. "I want to tell my own stories. I want to make movies with Mike Shannon."
Since first seeing footage of Shannon, the imposing, versatile actor of "Boardwalk Empire" and the upcoming "Man of Steel," Nichols swore he'd be in every film of his - a promise he's kept. Then a film student at the North Carolina School of the Arts (the film program that produced David Gordon Green and Danny McBride), Nichols called Shannon up to say he had written "Shotgun Stories," an unconventional story of brotherly revenge, for him.
"He didn't act like a kid," says Shannon. "He didn't talk like a kid."
Nichols' next film, "Take Shelter," starred Shannon as a paranoid young father obsessed with building a bunker for his family. Nichols wrote it out of the anxiety he was feeling personally in his first year of marriage, and generally in the air during the George W. Bush administration. The film won numerous awards at the Cannes Film Festival and appeared on many critics' top 10 lists for 2011.
Shannon treats Nichols like a younger brother: mockingly but affectionately. "I believe in him and I want him to prosper," says Shannon. "Kind of like a horse I got some skin on."
"He's got a real hunger to grow as an artist," Shannon adds. "I know for a fact that there's been projects he's been offered along the way that could have put some cash in his pocket and maybe gotten him a little more into the mainstream."
Nichols grew up the son of a Little Rock furniture shop owner and his father's "movie buddy" from an early age. (His brother Ben Nichols, who contributed music to "Mud," is the front man for the Memphis alt-country band Lucero.) A formative experience in college was working on Gary Hawkins' documentary about the Mississippi author Larry Brown, who demystified the creative process, telling him it was more about hard work than talent.
Nichols' favorite films, polled last year by Sight & Sound, aren't littered with the art house picks you might expect from an independent film star like Nichols, but instead feature beloved 1960s and `70s movies like "Hud," "Cool Hand Luke," "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and "Jaws." Those influences are easy to see in "Mud," but Nichols says he thinks "Mud" owes even more to a fiction tradition.
"It feels like, I hate to say it, like the DNA of the whole thing," says Nichols. "I wanted it to feel like a Mark Twain story or some classic American fiction."
"Mud" stars Tye Sheridan (the preternaturally mature young actor who impressed in Terrence Malick's "Tree of Life") as the 14-year-old Ellis who, with his friend Neckbone (Jacob Lofland), comes upon a fugitive named Mud (McConaughey) hiding out on a small island near his Arkansas home on the Mississippi. Mud's trouble, we learn, is due to his undying devotion to his less than trustworthy girlfriend (Witherspoon). The young Ellis identifies with Mud's romantic ideals and gathers supplies for him.
The film, ultimately, is about the innocence of first love and enduring the inevitable heartbreak that follows. Nichols had hoped the film's posters would be in the style of the illustrations in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer." (Marketing executives nixed the idea, saying it called to mind required high school reading.)
"More so than any other film I've ever worked on, we shot this film scene for scene, just what was written," says McConaughey, for whom Nichols specifically wrote the part years ago. "(Nichols) isn't trying to be someone else. The world and everything he embraces, he looks it in the eye."
Nichols first started writing "Mud" over a decade ago, and long yearned to make it. He considers it a culmination not only for him personally, but for his trilogy of films. (All were meant to be set and filmed in Arkansas but "Take Shelter" was shot in Ohio for tax breaks.) His skillfulness as a director, he says, has grown from the sparse stillness of "Shotgun Stories," to the structured dolly-track movement of "Take Shelter," to the fluid Steadicam of "Mud."
"Between these three films now, you have all been watching me learn how to direct," he says.
Though finding financing for his own projects remains a struggle, Nichols hopes to keep working in budgets south of $20 million, making personal films "that people, god forbid, want to see." He's nearly finished writing his next film, which is inspired by 1980s science-fiction movies. "The whole thing is about light," he says.
"I certainly feel like I'm ready now," says Nichols. "I wasn't fully formed before `Mud.' Now I feel like I can handle it."

Hi there!
It's been awhile since I posted something, but I was feeling inspired by another lentil salad I made today. I say another because my last post was basically the same recipe, only this one uses a different type of lentil and mixed micro greens instead of romaine. It's so tasty and simple, I got up this morning and was able to make this salad in 30 minutes before I had to get ready for the day. And it should allow me enough leftovers for the next 2-3 days. So that being said, I highly recommend this recipe to anyone looking for something easy, healthy, and quick to prepare.
For the lentils:
-1 cup lentils
-3 cups water
-1 pinch sea salt
-1 bay leaf
For the Veggies:
-1/2 red onion, small diced
-1 carrot, small diced
-salt, pepper
-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
-optional: chopped parsley and basil
For the Salad:
-extra virgin olive oil
-micro greens, or your favorite greens
-feta cheese
-avocado, sliced
- Search lentils for any small rocks and remove. Add lentils to a medium pot with the water, a pinch of salt and a bay leaf. Bring to a rapid boil, then turn the heat to simmer and cook covered with a lid for 25 minutes. *Note: add more water to the pot throughout the cooking process if you notice the lentils have absorbed most of the water.
- Once the lentils have cooked for about 15 minutes, add olive oil to a heated pan. When the oil is hot, add the carrots and onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook about 5 minutes or until soft. Add the chopped herbs and mix in.
- When the lentils are done, strain them if there's excess water. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Add the cooked vegetables to the pot of lentils and mix together. Allow the lentils to cool, then pour over a bowl of greens, drizzle with olive oil, add feta, avocado and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!

Bob Bashara speaks outside Grosse Pointe Park home
Husband of 56-year-old Jane Bashara speaks week after she is found dead
GROSSE POINTE PARK, Mich. – The husband of murdered Grosse Pointe Park mother Jane Bashara thanked supporters and called the situation horrific as he spoke Wednesday outside his home.
Jane Bashara was found dead Jan. 25 in the back of her SUV, which was parked in an alley on Detroit's east side. Her husband, Bob Bashara, had reported her missing the night before.

Bashara stood with his mother and son as he spoke to the media.
"This is an unconceivable tragedy," he said.
Wiping away tears, he said the family had cooperated with law enforcement agencies and would continue to.
"In the light of this horrific event, we ask for your continued prayers, ask for your support and respect of our privacy as we deal with this heartbreak and try to cope," Bob Bashara said.
Police have said Bob Bashara is a person of interest and sources said he failed a polygraph test. But he has not been charged.
"My sister and I really support my dad through all of this," said Bob Bashara's son, Robert. "We just miss our mom so much and we're just trying to get through this."
A man named "Joe" has told police he strangled Jane in the garage of her home but did so while being held at gunpoint by another person. "Joe" has also not yet been charged.
When asked about "Joe," Bob Bashara said, "I have nothing to say."
