Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.

The new TL is manufactured for markets worldwide exclusively in Ohio. It will be sold in the United States, Canada, Japan and other Asian countries. The vast majority of the TL's component parts are sourced and manufactured in the United States. As was the case with Acura's first domestically produced model, the CL coupe, local suppliers were brought in on the project as early as possible, to ensure the highest quality from the very beginning of mass production.
U.S.-Japan Collaboration
As part of Acura's ongoing effort to design and produce products where they will be sold, the move to produce the TL in Ohio was part of a natural progression. The TL is an international effort, combining Acura's resources in Japan with those of the Acura/American Honda product planning offices in Torrance, California, styling and engineering facilities completed at Honda R&D Americas - Ohio, the Anna engine plant and the Marysville, Ohio auto assembly plant.
Local Content
With in excess of 75% local content, the TL is expected to be classified as a domestic car by the EPA.
Supplier Involvement
With Honda of America Manufacturing, Inc. (HAM) already drawing on 408 different suppliers to support its manufacturing activities of Honda and Acura products, the launch of the TL will push that total to a new high of 414 suppliers.
Manufacturing Quality Development
In preparation for eventual production of the TL, manufacturing personnel reviewed competitive models, and the 199Tproduction start-up of the CL coupe. An extensive internal quality review of the RL and previous-generationTL was also undertaken. With quality targets locked in, work was begun to insure that the goals could be reliably met during the assembly process. Key areas targeted for new standards of excellence are:
- Increased body accuracy
- Paint appearance
- Part fit and finish
Anna Engine Plant
Since producing its first engine in 1985, the Anna Engine Plant (AEP) has ramped up to a total production of 900,000 engines and related components per year. With 2700 associates and a total investment in facilities of $907 million, the Anna plant will achieve a pace of 1000 V-6 engines per day for model year 1999. To provide the manufacturing capacity required for the new TL, the factory's complement of two 3500-ton casting machines will be doubled to four by calender 1999. New equipment and manufacturing technologies are being put in place for the TL's crankshaft and braking system.
Marysville Auto Plant
With a start of production, dating back to 1982 and a total investment of $1.8 billion, and more than 5800 associates, the platinum award-winning Marysville Auto Plant (MAP) has stretched for a new quality standard with the production of the new TL. Capable of producing a total of 1800 cars per day, MAP's flexible manufacturing environment allows seamless production of the TL on the same line as the Honda Accord.
A variety of new manufacturing technologies are required to build the new TL:
- New fluid-control paint system
- New Acid Etch clear-coat paint system
- Laser welding of inner door panels
- Instrument panel modularization to increase consistency
- Enhanced vehicle quality department

Adorable for a Short While
"I picked these sandals because they are so cute but just know ahead of time that they do not provide any support. Lunch out with the girls is fine, but do not plan on walking around shopping in these. The do not hurt, they just tire your feet out quickly because they are so thin."

I'm trying to make flash cards using my mac (Im under OS/X 10.8) Ive worked out the basics, ie ὀ and ὁ. But as mentioned in "Learn New Testament Greek" there are some others, that I cant type. How to type the ι so that it goes under α, η, and ω on a mac.
I've tried googling for the info, but can't find much.

Autosave is a two-part operation: run-time save, and boot-time restore. The run-time part (save_restore.c) is started by commands in the IOC startup file, and persists while the IOC is running. Its primary job is to save PV values to files on a server, but it also supports manual restore and other management operations. The boot-time part (dbrestore.c) is invoked during iocInit, via an EPICS initHook. It restores PV values from files written by the run-time part, and does not persist after iocInit returns.
In addition to the autosave software, the autosave module contains a client program, asVerify, to compare written autosave files with current PV values. This program can also write an autosave file from which PV values can be restored.
AUTOSAVE=<path to the autosave module>to xxx/configure/RELEASE, add
xxx_LIBS += autosaveto xxxApp/src/Makefile, and add
include "asSupport.dbd"to iocxxxInclude.dbd.
file <request_file> <macro-substitution_string>e.g.,
file motor_settings.req P=xxx:,M=m1
I've tried to defend against forseeable variations in syntax, so that include lines with embedded whitespace and/or quotes, macro strings without commas, empty macro strings, and lines with trailing comments will be parsed as one would want. Generally, quotes are ignored, whitespace implies a comma but otherwise is ignored, and everything after the second sequence of non-whitespace characters (i.e., after the file name) and before the (optional) comment character '#' is taken as the macro-substitution string. Macro substitution is performed on the entire line, so it's possible to parameterize names of included files, as well as PV names. It is also possible to define a macro that replaces its target with nothing.
Most synApps modules contain autosave-request files that are intended to be included in an ioc's autosave-request file(s). For example, calc/calcApp/Db/scalcout_settings.req contains a list of the fields one might want to autosave for a single scalcout record. This file is included in calc/calcApp/Db/userStringCalcs10_settings.req, which, in turn, is included in xxx/iocBoot/iocvxWorks/auto_settings.req.
When autosave manages its own NFS mount, as this command directs it to do, it can fix a stale file handle by dismounting and remounting the file system.
When autosave runs under operating systems other than vxWorks, it simply uses whatever mount the operating system, or a system administrator, has provided.
set_savefile_path()in your startup script, before the create_xxx_set() commands, to specify the path to the directory. If you are using NFS (strongly recommended), ensure that the path does not contain symbolic links. In my experience, VxWorks cannot write through a symbolic link. (I don't understand all the ins and outs of this limitation. It may be that symbolic links are OK if they contain absolute path names.)
set_pass0_restoreFile() set_pass1_restoreFile()Place these commands in the startup file before iocInit. If you don't call either of these functions (or if your calls fail completely to specify any restore files) the supplied initHooks routine will attempt to restore the file "auto_positions.sav" before record init, and the file "auto_settings.sav" both before and after record init.
Notes on restore passes:
Link fields cannot be restored (by dbStatic calls) after record initialization. If you want save/restore to work for link fields you must specify them in a pass-0 file.
Device support code for the motor record uses the value of the field DVAL, restored during pass 0, only if the value read from the hardware is zero. If the value from hardware is nonzero, it is used instead of the restored value.
Arrays cannot be restored during pass 0.
Scalar PV's which have type DBF_NOACCESS in the .dbd file, and are set to some other DBF type during record initialization, cannot be restored during pass 0.
Note: If a save file is restored in both pass 0 and pass 1, the boot-backup file will be written only during pass 0.
Tell save_restore to save sequence files. The commands:
save_restoreSet_NumSeqFiles(3) save_restoreSet_SeqPeriodInSeconds(600)will cause save_restore to maintain three copies of each .sav file, at ten-minute intervals.
create_monitor_set("auto_positions.req", 5, "P=xxx:") create_monitor_set("auto_settings.req", 30, "P=xxx:")to your EPICS startup file after iocInit. You can call the files anything you want, but note that the file names "auto_positions" and "auto_settings" receive special treatment: they are default restore-file names specified by initHooks() if set_pass<n>_restoreFile() were never called. The third argument to create_monitor_set() is a macro-substitution string, as described above in the discussion of request files (step 2). If supplied, this macro-substitution string supplements any macro strings supplied in include-file directives of request files read for this save set.
For each "create_monitor_set(<name>.req, <time>, <macro>)" command, the save_restore process will write the files <name>.sav and <name>.savB every <time> seconds, if any of the PVs named in the file <name>.req have changed value since the last write. Other create_xxx_set() commands do the same thing, but with different conditions triggering the save operation.
Note that in versions prior to 2.7, create_monitor_set() used an argument of type double to specify the period (in seconds). This doesn't work on the PPC, so the arguments for this and similar functions were changed to int.
If your IOC takes a really long time to boot, it's possible the PVs you want to save will not have the correct values when the save_restore task first looks at them. (If you are restoring lots of long arrays, this is even more likely.) Under vxWorks, you can avoid this by putting a
taskDelay(<number_of_60_Hz_clock_ticks>)before create_monitor_set().
usage: asVerify [-vrd] <autosave_file> -v (verbose) causes all PV's to be printed out Otherwise, only PV's whose values differ are printed. -r (restore_file) causes a restore file named '<autosave_file>.asVerify' to be written. -d (debug) increment debug level by one. -rv (or -vr) does both examples: asVerify auto_settings.sav (reports only PVs whose values differ from saved values) asVerify -v auto_settings.sav (reports all PVs, marking differences with '***'.) asVerify -vr auto_settings.sav (reports all PVs, and writes a restore file.) asVerify auto_settings.sav caput <myStatusPV> $? (writes number of differences found to a PV.) NOTE: For the purpose of writing a restore file, you can specify a .req file (or any file that contains PV names, one per line) instead of a .sav file. However, this program will misunderstand any 'file' commands that occur in a .req file. (It will look for a PV named 'file'.)
Note that asVerify cannot read an autosave request file; it will understand any PV names contained in the file, but it cannot parse the "file" command, perform macro substitutions, or include other request files.
Most data types are read using channel access and written using dbStaticLib
calls. Four data types get special attention:
Here is a sample save file. Characters in blue are documentation comments, and are not part of the file:
# save/restore V4.9 Automatically generated - DO NOT MODIFY - 060720-154526 ! 1 channel(s) not connected - or not all gets were successful xxx:SR_ao.DISP 0 (uchar) xxx:SR_ao.PREC 1 (short) xxx:SR_bo.IVOV 2 (ushort) xxx:SR_ao.SCAN 3 (enum - saved/restored as a short) xxx:SR_ao.VAL 4.1234567890123 (double, printed with format "%.14g") xxx:SR_scaler.RATE 1.234568 (float, printed with format "%.7g") xxx:SR_ao.DESC description (string) xxx:SR_ao.OUT xxx:SR_bo.VAL NPP NMS (link) xxx:SR_ao.RVAL 4 (long) xxx:SR_bi.SVAL 2 (ulong) #i_dont_exist.VAL Search Issued (no such PV) xxx:SR_char_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_double_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_float_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_long_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_short_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_string_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_uchar_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_ulong_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } xxx:SR_ushort_array @array@ { "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" } <END>Save files are not intended to be edited manually. If you, nevertheless, do edit a save file, you must end it with the text
<END>followed by one or two arbitrary characters (normally '\n' or '\r\n'). If the file does not end with this text, reboot_restore() will assume the crate crashed while the file was being written, or that some other bad thing happened, and will not use the file. Once a save file has been created successfully, save_restore will not overwrite the file unless a good ".savB" backup file exists. Similarly, it will not overwrite the ".savB" file unless the save file was successfully written.
You can comment out lines in a .sav file by beginning them with '#'.
int manual_save(char *request_file)
request_file was created
with create_manual_set(), this command will cause current PV values to
be saved.
int set_savefile_name(char *request_file, char *save_file)
int create_periodic_set(char *request_file, int period, char *macrostring)
period seconds.
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int create_triggered_set(char *request_file, char *trigger_channel,
char *macrostring)
trigger_channel is posted. Normally
this occurs when the PV's value changes.
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int create_monitor_set(char *request_file, int period, char *macrostring)
period seconds, if any PV in the save set was posted (changed
value) since the last write.
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int create_manual_set(char *request_file, char *macrostring)
manual_save() is called with the same request-file
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int fdbrestore(char *save_file)
save_file refers to a save set that exists in memory, then PV's
in the save set will be restored from values in memory. Otherwise, this
functions restores the PV's in <saveRestorePath>/<save_file> and creates
a new backup file "<saveRestorePath>/<save_file>.bu". The effect
probably will not be the same as a boot-time restore, because caput()
calls are used instead of static database access dbPutX() calls.
Record processing will result from caput()'s to inherently process-
passive fields.
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int fdbrestoreX(char *save_file)
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
void save_restoreShow(int verbose)
This function can be called at any time after iocInit.
int set_requestfile_path(char *path, char *pathsub)
pathsub, if present, will be appended
path, if present, with a separating '/' whether or not
path ends
pathsub begins with '/'. If the result does not end in '/', one will
be appended to it.
You can specify several directories to be searched for request files by
calling this routine several times. Directories will be searched in the
order in which the
set_requestfile_path() calls were made. If you never
call the routine, the crate's current working directory will be searched.
If you ever call it, the current directory ("./") will be searched only if
you've asked for it explicitly.
int set_savefile_path(char *path, char *pathsub)
pathsub, if present, will be
appended to
path, if present, with a separating '/' whether or not
pathsub begins with '/'. If the result does not end in '/', one
will be appended to it.
If save_restore is managing its own NFS mount, this function specifies the mount point, and calling it will result in an NFS mount if all other requirements have already been met. If a valid NFS mount already exists, the file system will be dismounted and then mounted with the new path name. This function can be called at any time.
int set_saveTask_priority(int priority)
int remove_data_set(char *request_file)
request_file, this function will
delete it.
int reload_periodic_set(char *request_file, int period, char *macrostring)
int reload_triggered_set(char *request_file, char *trigger_channel,
char *macrostring)
int reload_monitor_set(char * request_file, int period, char *macrostring)
int reload_manual_set(char * request_file, char *macrostring)
Note: Don't get too ambitious with the remove/reload functions. You have to wait for one to finish completely (the save_restore task must get through its service loop) before executing another. If you call one before the previous function is completely finished, I don't know what will happen.

void save_restoreSet_IncompleteSetsOk(int ok)
(int) save_restoreIncompleteSetsOk (initially 1).
If set to zero, save files will not be restored at boot time unless
they are perfect, and they will not be overwritten at save time
unless a valid CA connection and value exists for every PV in the
This function can be called at any time.
void save_restoreSet_NumSeqFiles(int numSeqFiles)
(int) save_restoreNumSeqFiles (initially 3).
This is the number of sequenced backup files to be maintained.
This function can be called at any time.
void save_restoreSet_SeqPeriodInSeconds(int period)
(int) save_restoreSeqPeriodInSeconds (initially 60).
Sequenced backup files will be written with this period.
This function can be called at any time.
void save_restoreSet_DatedBackupFiles(int ok)
(int) save_restoreDatedBackupFiles (initially 1).
If zero, the backup file written at reboot time (a copy of the file
from which parameter values are restored) will have the suffix '.bu',
and will be overwritten every reboot. If nonzero, each reboot will
leave behind its own backup file.
This function can be called at any time.
void save_restoreSet_status_prefix(char *prefix)
This function must be called before the first call to
void save_restoreSet_NFSHost(char *hostname, char *address)
set_savefile_path() has been called to specify the file
path, save_restore will manage its own NFS mount. This allows save_restore
to recover from a reboot of the NFS host (i.e., a stale file handle) and
from some kinds of tampering with the save_restore directory.

For Dancers Only, LP (£12.05)
Who could have guessed that, when Ace Records invited soul connoisseur and 6T's Rhythm And Soul supremo Ady Croasdell to have a rifle through the Modern catalogue, and see if he could scare up enough dance floor-oriented sides to put an album together it would be the start of 25 (and counting) years of lovingly compiled, legitimately-licensed albums, CDs and even occasional 45s that have made the Kent imprint known throughout the world as a trademark of quality and integrity?
In the intervening years, Kent has expanded its remit way beyond the Modern catalogue, and also beyond music mostly aimed at the dance floor. But every label has to start somewhere, and as 'starts' go, FOR DANCERS ONLY is still a mightily impressive one. Most of the tracks that Ady selected have either maintained their popularity or, in many cases, gained an even stronger one, as audiences not yet born when the original album came out have become part of the wide and wonderful world of Northern Soul. It's entirely fitting that we kick off the year that will see all sorts of 25th Anniversary celebrations for the Kent label with 'the record that started it all', in a format that's more suited to the 21st century, and in a size that's more suited to playing in the car on the way to a dance than a cumbersome old vinyl album would be…

The Desertview Federal Credit Union / San Rafael Pro Rodeo is coming to town on July 29, 30 and 31 for wild rodeo action with some of the best cowboys and cowgirls in the country making their way to Castle Dale. The rodeo begins at 7:30 p.m. each night. PRCA Stock Contractor of the year Ike Sankey will supply some of the greatest rough stock animals in the country.
At the Thursday performance a quarterhorse filly will be given away in a drawing from the ticket stubs. The lucky winner will take home the filly just by showing up and hanging onto their ticket stub. The excitement will be mounting as opening night draws near to find out who the lucky winner will be. This filly is being donated by the Castle Valley Ranch.
The most extreme event in rodeo is wild cow milking. This event returns on Thursday, Friday and Saturday with local cowboys participating for cash and gold belt buckles for the overall winners. The rodeo will close on Saturday night with a big bang. Desertview Federal Credit Union will send rodeo fans a big thank you with a fireworks display.
The San Rafael Pro Rodeo Committee was excited when they received this year's contestant list on Friday. Coming to Castle Dale for the first time is Cody Wright of Milford, the 2003 National Finals Rodeo Saddle Bronc average champion, as well as, calf roper, Brent Lewis, who has qualified for the NFR finals on several occasions. Scott Johnston, Cody Demers, Boogie Ray, all ranked in the top 20 in the world will compete this year in various events.
Lance Kelly will travel 12,000 miles to participate in the San Rafael Pro Rodeo. Kelly is from Queensland, Australia. Hometown cowboys include Brock and Justin Truman, Huntington, Justin Carter, Green River, James Sherman, Cleveland, Travis Donathan, Monte Jensen and Ryan McCourt from Price.
"The Wild Child" Troy Lerwill will perform a death defying motorcycle jump over a truck and trailer in the arena at the San Rafael Pro Rodeo. This extreme event will take place during each performance of the San Rafael Pro Rodeo.
Troy Lerwill joined the PRCA in 1997 working mostly as a barrelman. In 1998, The Wild Child was born where Troy incorporated his love of motorcycles into a rodeo specialty act. He learned to use his experiences as a professional motocross racer to build up funny motorcycle acts for the rodeo world. He told himself that somehow it should be possible to jump a Dodge pickup truck and a Sundowner trailer with his dirt bike on an arena floor. Having learned to accomplish this feat, Troy began performing his daring motorcycle jump at professional rodeos.
Troy's act became so famous that it was immediately sought by the biggest rodeos in America and also the Calgary Stampede in Canada. In a mere five years, The Wild Child rocketed to the top of the PRCA rodeo world. In 2002 and 2003, The Wild Child act was selected as the PRCA Comedy Act of the Year. At the National Finals Rodeo in December 2003, Troy was selected to perform his act during the second go round for live ESPN broadcast.
He was born and raised in Payson, and graduated from high school there. His father Lynn was a team roper and his mother Penny was a rodeo queen and gave him his first horse when he was 4 years old. At age 10 he graduated to riding motorcycles. Two years later he entered his first motorcycle race. He became the #1 ranked professional motocross racer in the state of Utah within six years. In 1992, he started a business called Downhill Cyclery in Payson selling and servicing mountain bikes. A love of extreme danger led him to start a rodeo bullfighting career in 1994. This career led to the birth of The Wild Child.
He would like to invite fellow Utahns to the San Rafael Pro Rodeo to see the most death defying, spectacular act in professional rodeo today. Crashes are inevitable, he'll need your prayers.

Mine is obvious if you read D gray man. It's taken directly from Tyki Mikk. "Kyou" or "卿" in kanji is the title of Tyki, not too sure what it means but it got translated to "lord".
Originally my name was Chaos, but then during the formation of a secret organization we wanted to be discrete, so most of us took new names (usually from OP). Ace is my favorite char, and even if you don't watch OP and see "Ace" you still go "that's an awesome name." So yeah, but as it very often is with awesome names, they're taken. So, next I went with Spades (Ace of Spades?) but then when I restarted watching OP again, and saw the Ace vs Blackbeard fight scene, it reminded me how awesome Ace was and...if you still don't get it...

By PHIL FAUVERGuest Writer
Cottonwood Creek Consolidated Irrigation Company held a general stockholders meeting on Aug. 2 to report the progress of the irrigation improvement project. This meeting was held at the Orangeville City community center.
Craig Johansen Chairman of the board and of Johansen and Tuttle Engineering Inc. provided large maps of each farm land area around Castle Dale and Orangeville that the irrigation improvement project would help. These maps also provided the proposed positioning of irrigation lines and the acreage that could be irrigated, what kind of pressure could be anticipated and where connections would be put. Johansen reported on the various parts of this irrigation project. The Clipper Western is the project that is presently funded. "We have three projects that have been presently funded. The first one is with the Bureau of Reclamation and it involves the Clipper Western Canal and that project is funded for $6.5 million dollars. We have $1 million that has been assigned to the year 2010. We'll have another $2.5 million for the year 2011 and $3 million in 2012. That limits how we put this project together. Some of the piping may not be in the ground until the end of 2012. It may be 2013 before the Clipper Western has water in the system for irrigation.
"The second project, we are working on is the Adobe Wash Reservoir and the third is the Adobe Wash Reservoir pipeline. That would be the pipeline from the head of the Western to the Adobe Wash Reservoir. We have three projects that we think we have funds for and we are proceeding with the designs.
"When we last met, we got a vote to go ahead with the project, which we did. Since then we've gone before the water resource board and borrowed $2.5 million. That loan is at 0 percent interest over 10 years. The loan is to be paid back at rate of $250,000 a year.
"We have been negotiating with PacifiCorp and we have worked out an arrangement with PacifiCorp where they will help build the Adobe Wash Reservoir with $6.5 million dollars. The reservoir will be a benefit to PacifiCorp as well as to ourselves, so it is a partnership.
"In addition to that we have the on farm, money through the NRCS program. That is estimated to be approximately $6 million dollars. We have total funds available to us of approximately $22 million. Consequently we are moving ahead on those three phases of the project.
"The pipeline is estimated at $4 million, and the reservoir is estimated at $4 million.
"In addition to the above. We have the help of Randy Johnson and through him we have made application for $3.5 million for the pipeline from the head of the clipper to the reservoir. If we qualify for the 595 appropriation program through the Corps of Engineers. It is a 75 percent grant.
"Senator Bennett created the language for the 595 appropriation in 2003, called the Utah Environmental Infrastructure Resource Protection Development Program. That is where the 595 money would flow through. The problem is to get this project funded for this year, which really means the year 2011. With Senator Bennett not being there next year. We may have difficulty getting that money. All of the 2010 money has already been spent. The 595 money can be justified by tying it to the contract to deliver water for Castle Dale and Orangeville, the power plant, and the pumping station. We believe this project will qualify for the 595 funds.
"If getting the 595 money fails, we will apply for some of the other grants that are available. That is where we are on the funding. The board has been working very hard to make sure we have adequate money to continue these projects. The board will soon prepare an application for the next phase with the Bureau of Reclamation.
"The board has contracted with an engineering firm RBG out of Provo. We had them do the preliminary design on the reservoir. We have contracted with Montgomery Archaeologists to clear the cultural resources for the entire pipeline project. You may have seen them walking around with their GPS units, putting up flags and wondered what they were doing. The board has entered into a contract with Johansen and Tuttle to design the sprinkler system. The sprinkler system for the Clipper Western will be designed, we will do the hydraulic design for the entire system of all of the phases. So we can show you what the whole project will look like. At this time there is no contract for the Adobe wash pipeline, but work is being done on it. To avoid a conflict of interest we have reorganized the board," said Johansen.
Clyde Magnuson explained the reorganization of the Board of Directors, who should be on the board and who should be the project engineer. Craig Johansen was excused from the board's discussion and the board decided to take on the responsibilities of the chairman and divided those responsibilities among the members of the board. The board formed a finance committee and appointed a finance chairman, a policy committee was formed. A right-of-way committee was formed, and an engineering committee to oversee the engineering. Every decision concerning the project will come through the board and be approved or disapproved. As far as the irrigation project goes Craig Johansen is the engineer and the board is the oversight committee.
Ross Huntington has been appointed as finance chairman. All financial matters will go through him. Craig Johansen remains the Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company President while the board members make the decisions and sign the checks. We have given you an overview with these maps, as to what is being done in the design process as well as how the CCIC is to be managed in the future.
The above is a brief review of some of the reports given by the Cottonwood Creek and Irrigation Company board at this General Stockholders Meeting.
Carl Justesen has been appointed to replace Darrell Gardener on the board of directors.

Glasgow will be looking to back up their fine 60-3 win over Dragons when they run out to face Ulster at Scotstoun Stadium on Friday.
Glasgow will hope to back up their impressive 60-3 win over Dragons when they run out to face PRO12 leaders Ulster at Scotstoun Stadium.
In team news for Friday, Peter Horne has been handed the fly-half jersey on his 50th appearance for the Warriors as head coach Gregor Townsend makes six changes to the starting XV seeking to build on last week's record victory.
Horne, who has recovered from the fracture that kept him out of the Scotland squad for the Six Nations has been given the task of orchestrating from the pivot in the top of the table battle.
The Warriors sit seven points behind Ulster.
"We played some very good rugby last week and scored some excellent tries but I believe there is more to come from this group of players," said Townsend.
"We know we have to perform at those high levels week in and week out when we are competing against sides as good as Ulster.
"We have faced them three times already this season and we're yet to win one, so we're determined to put that right.
"Peter brings another dimension to our play and will lead what is an exciting back division. I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do on Friday night.
"We are now entering the business end of the season, where each match has ramifications on the play-off positions. We will be playing six out of the top seven sides in the next two months and we'll have to be at our best to succeed."
The Warriors have won their last five PRO12 matches and haven't tasted defeat in the league since a 0-6 reverse to Leinster back in November but the Warriors will again call upon talent from the club game as their front-row continues to be in-demand or out injured.
Ryan Grant, Jon Welsh and Moray Low are all on Scotland duty while Gordon Reid has not been passed fit after suffering concussion at the weekend in the game against Dragons. EDP prop George Hunter is still recovering from a foot injury suffered in December while Mike Cusack is recovering from a shoulder injury.
It means a second start this season for Tongan prop Ofa Fainga'anuku and a return to starting duties for Ed Kalman. The front row is bolstered by the inclusion of Pat MacArthur.
Meanwhile, Ulster coach Mark Anscombe has made eleven personnel changes to his team for this weekend's RaboDirect PRO12 encounter.
Neil Walsh and Conor Joyce will start in an Ulster shirt for the first time after being named on the left wing and back-row respectively. Walsh made his debut as a late replacement in last week's win over Zebre, while Joyce's previous appearance was in the 2011 Boxing Day defeat to Leinster.
The side will be captained by tighthead prop John Afoa, who is joined in an all-new front-row by Nigel Brady and Callum Black. Dan Tuohy and Neil McComb come in to the second row in place of regular skipper Johann Muller and Lewis Stevenson. Robbie Diack, the only forward retained from the Zebre fixture, will again start at eight and will combine in the back-row with Joyce and Ali Birch.
With Paddy Jackson starting for Ireland this weekend, Anscombe has called upon Paddy Wallace to direct affairs from fly-half. The backline reshuffle also results in Andrew Trimble moving to outside centre where he is partnered in midfield by Stuart Olding, who produced an impressive performance off the bench last weekend. Michael Allen will line up on the right wing for his twelfth cap, with Walsh on the opposite flank. Ruan Pienaar (scrum-half) and Ricky Andrew (full-back) complete the backline.
Form: Glasgow Warriors have won their last five RaboDirect PRO12 encounters since their 3-31 defeat in Munster on 1 December. The Warriors' only loss at Scotstoun in the tournament since early September was 0-6 to Leinster on 23 November. Glasgow have won just one of their last seven fixtures with Irish provinces: 27-17 at home to Connacht on 21 September. Ulster remain at the top of the RaboDirect PRO12 table despite having a won 2, lost 2 record from their last four contests. The Ulstermen have lost only one away game in any competition this season: 10-24 at Munster in the PRO12 on 29 December, whilst they have won their last seven games against Scottish opponents in all tournaments. The Warriors' solitary victory over Ulster in their last seven meetings was 17-9 at Firhill on 25 November 2011.
The teams:
Glasgow: 15 Peter Murchie, 14 Tommy Seymour, 13 Mark Bennett, 12 Alex Dunbar, 11 DTH van der Merwe, 10 Peter Horne, 9 Niko Matawalu, 8 Ryan Wilson (capt), 7 John Barclay, 6 Josh Strauss, 5 Tom Ryder, 4 Tim Swinson, 3 Ed Kalman, 2 Pat MacArthur, 1 Ofa Fainga'anuku.

The health care software provider said Markin will serve as vice president and chief operations officer effective immediately, filling a position on its executive team.
"We had a very clear idea of the qualities we were looking for in a new member of our executive team," said Dan Kerpelman, Bio-Optronics' president and CEO, in a statement. "Jeff's years at VirtualScopics and Kodak have given him the unique skills and experiences we felt were necessary, and we felt Jeff's values were a good fit with our company culture."
In conjunction with Markin's appointment, Maria Durkin, Bio-Optronics' vice president, has been appointed chief business officer. Kerpelman called her a lynchpin to the firm's growth over the last five years.
"This change will redistribute executive responsibility between Maria and Jeff in a way that will increase our focus on pre- and post-sale customer care while liberating much needed executive capacity for product-line management as our portfolio expands," he said.
Markin is the first addition to the Bio-Optronics executive team since 2008. Over the past five years, Bio-Optronics has tripled in size, expanding every department within the organization, the company said. The company ranked No.44 on the 2013 Rochester Top 100 list of fastest-growing private companies.
This is not the first time Markin has worked with Kerpelman, who previously ran Eastman Kodak Co.'s former health group. Markin led that group's health care information technology area before joining VirtualScopics, a company he left in late October, where Kerpelman is a director.

Back in December, the Warhawks buried Arrowhead 100-47 at the WBBY Shooutout at Concordia. Arrowhead (20-4) has since righted itself and claimed a share of the Classic 8 Conference title and upset Greater Metro champion Sussex Hamilton in regional final play Saturday.
But can they stand in against Germantown? Odds are not in their favor in the WIAA sectional semifinal game slated for 7 p.m. Feb. 28 at Waukesha West. Germantown has now won 52 games in a row and 76 out of its last 78 and has moved up to second nationally in a poll by MaxPreps (23rd on the ESPN list).
Their defense is now so tight (44.5 points per game) that James Naismith can take long naps between opponents' hoops while watching on his ESPN channel in heaven. But still, coach Steve Showalter knows that Arrowhead will be motivated, and after Arrowhead is likely the Warhawks' fourth date with powerful De Pere in the last three years in the WIAA sectional final tentatively slated for 1 p.m. March 2 at Homestead.
The De Pere coach was at the regional final win over Homestead on Saturday.
(Both the semifinal and final might be moved pending ticket demand; watch GermantownNOW.com for details.)
If the Warhawks are successful this weekend, they will get a chance at defending their WIAA State Division 1 title, March 8 and 9 in Madison.
'I know I'm going to be quite the bear over the next few days,' said head coach Steve Showalter following the regional final win over Homestead, 'because I want the kids solidly focused (on Arrowhead). … Right now, I'm happy with our defense and our effort. There are just a few things that we have to tidy up for what's to come.'
It was a quiet effort for both senior 195-pounder Steve Asmondy and junior Hunter Higginbotham in the WIAA State Tournament in Madison last weekend as both lost first-round matches.
'Steven (38-11) wrestled well in his first WIAA state tournament,' said coach Casey Gabrielson. 'He went in ranked 14th and finished 12th. He drew the eventual state champion (Evan Peissig of Menomonie) in the first round. He then had to wrestle the kid who took third overall in the backside (Kyle Smith of Franklin) who had beaten him earlier in the year at the Stech (tourney).
'It was a bad draw from the start … but he wrestled well. He had huge growth over the four years … going from one win on JV his freshman year to almost 40 wins on varsity and a state qualifier his senior year is pretty sweet.'
For Higginbotham, the event was a disappointment.
'Hunter did not have the tournament he expected,' said Gabrielson. 'He was upset in the first round (by a wrestler from Menasha) and never got another chance.
'After looking at the 220 and 285 brackets, Hunter beat about a third of the field this year that got further than him at the state tournament. Hunter is a better wrestler than those kids and I truly felt he should have been a placewinner. … It was unfortunate that he did not have his best day. At least he has another year to mentally and physically prepare for the gold next year.'
The Warhawks ended their regular season on a high note, with a 72-50 rout of Homestead on Feb. 21.
They did that by going from virtually zero miles an hour in the first quarter (trailing 8-5) to 100 miles an hour by the end of the game (outscoring the Highlanders 30-20 in the fourth period).
'It was a rough start, said Warhawks coach Matt Stuve. 'It was one of those things that the train took awhile to get going, but once it did, nothing could get in the way.'
The victory allowed the Warhawks to finish in a tie for second in the final North Shore standings at 10-4. They finished with an overall mark of 17-5 and with a six-game winning streak.
They earned the third seed in their half of the WIAA sectional bracket and will host sixth-seeded Waukesha South at 7 p.m. March 1 in a regional semifinal. If they win, they will advance to a regional final on March 2 likely at second-seed Waukesha West.
'We were hoping to get the two seed, but it didn't quite work out,' said Stuve. 'I think we're going in (to the playoffs) in a good frame of mind.'
After the rough start, Germantown took a 22-19 lead at the break against Homestead and never looked back. A total of 12 people scored led by Bridget Kelly with 16 points while Taylor Higginbotham had 12 (and seven rebounds), Erika Berry 11 and Lauren Grotjahn 10.
Paige Groth had three points, four assists and six steals and Miska Cantley three assists and three steals. Stuve said that on the fastbreak, Groth and Kelly have a great sense of communication.
The Indians ended their season on a solid note, winning a messy 67-54 decision over Brookfield East in their regular season closer Feb. 21.
With the win, the Indians finished at 8-6 in Greater Metro Conference play and 13-9 overall. Falls earned the fifth seed in its WIAA sectional bracket and will visit fourth-seeded Arrowhead in a regional semifinal at 7 p.m. March 1. If they advance, they will likely visit Greater Metro Conference champion Sussex Hamilton on March 2 in a regional final.
Falls has lost twice to Hamilton already this season.
Falls took a 34-24 halftime lead on East, but needed a 14-7 effort in the fourth quarter to finally put away the pesky Spartans. It was a physical game that featured a combined 69 free throw attempts. The Indians hurt themselves by hitting only 14-of-30 tries from the line on the night.
Mikayla Robertson had 17 points and five assists for the Indians while Amber Bullock had 15, Erin Crownover 16 and Monica Carlson eight.

Over in the Five Tips blog, Michael Kassner shared several practical ways to get rid of that curse of the brand new PC: crapware. As he points out, crapware is messy and annoying — and worse — it can cause problems with your system. But he doesn't just hate crapware and the mess it can make — he doesn't like the term crapware, either. So he asked TechRepublic members to suggest some better alternatives. The response (and the venting) have been enthusiastic. Michael made a list of the 10 terms he likes best so far. Now it's time to put it to a vote. Weigh in on your favorite — or join the discussion and share your own suggestions.

Skip to comments.Caption John Kerry
Posted on 12/21/2012 3:40:05 PM PST by mnehring
Partying with very, very young girls.
Is that Cousin It on the right?
There once was a man from Nantucket...
Or so they say.
He is,,,, The Human Hemorrhoid!
" Hey honey, did you know I served in Vietnam?
This looks like one of those "prima nocta" things the Dems brought up in that campaign ad. When you go for your "first time", always crawl in bed with a politician who will take care of you for the rest of your life.
(Girl on the left) WHOA! A few more beers and this guy will almost look life like.......
"Just found Ted's little black book. Woo-hoo!"
".....wanna see my yacht? Terrrreeza's in France somewhere and she left me with a couple of weeks allowance....more cheap beer for everybody.....on her"
Lurch is alive and well.
Look at the guy's neck! If he dyed his hair red, he'd look like the eraser end of a pencil.
hey baby, wanna see my war injury?
"I'm not a Kennedy, I just act like one."
Today, 12/21/2012, marks 2882 days since 01/30/2005 when "Hanoi" John Kerry promised, on national TV, to sign form SF-180 and release his military records.
is that a bud light? yesh... you'd think he could afford real beer... chimay or something with flavor... the American craft industry is growing! and he's drinking swill...
Ketchup Boy had better hope that he can prove to Mrs. Ketchup that this photo was doctored, and that he was actually surrounded by adoring Viet Cong.
Otherwise, he may be barred from the yacht.
Yes sir.
To #23: When you are very tall, the view is great, esp. when your wife is no where around.
Did you know that I was on a Double Secret Mission in Cambodia 43 years ago this Christmas? Neither did I.
The Swifties are gonna get you, Hanoi John, just like we did in 2004. Like a torpedo or underwater mine, you never know it's there until it hits you. (PS: your Swiftboat never hit a mine; it was an underwater obstruction, probably a large rock due to the bent propellers and scouring of the bottom of your vessel).
Waiting, waiting, waiting, until you are in range (i.e. Senate hearings), and then, full salvo in your butt. You won't be able to lurch away from them this time.
Lurch groupies?
Creepy Skin Crawler.
Is it true that John Kerry was in Vietnam?
"I don't know anything about a swift boat, but if you don't get your hand off my butt, you're gonna get a swift knee to the privates."
Is it true that John Kerry was in Vietnam?
Yes. But on whose side I'm not sure.
Hey, he said he is going to be a secretary!
That's so-o-o-o gay!
And he was too, in Cambodia before winning the Viet Nam War. Did I mention he was captain of a riverboat armed to the teeth, before he returned to the U.S. to condemn every foreign policy of his Country since Jimmy Carter..?
Lurch is just checking out the terrain for a secret mission
Re:# 16
Yea!, Kerry's back...let the photoshop images begin! My fav is during his presidential campaign he was in Green Bay at the Gay Bay Bar...I have that particular thread saved on my other computer...its a hoot!

Spatial is a new initiative at the National Gallery of Australia, providing an online environment for the exhibition of electronic works of art. The first new media work to be displayed in Spatial is HyperCollider by Chris Henschke.
Created as part of the Metis 2004 festival, HyperCollider explores the relationship between space and time raised by Einstein's theories of special and general relativity — how velocity and gravity affect movement through time.
Concurrent to the virtual manifestation, HyperCollider will also exist temporarily in material form as large scale, panoramic prints of the device and the space within it. These visual moments in spacetime are displayed as part of the Gallery's Lift Art project, where an elevator's traffic and trajectory heighten a passenger's sense of movement through time and space.
Interact with HyperCollider at Spatial from 1 May – 7 August 2004.
HyperCollider is approximately 6MB in size and requires Shockwave

Sherrington: Why Cuban, Mavs have 'hardest road' of Dallas' pro franchises
SportsDay columnist Kevin Sherrington answered reader questions during a live chat Wednesday. Here are some highlights:
Cuban's been awwwwwwwfully quiet lately...like his hero Jerruh. Should we read anything into that, or should we just chalk it up to the theory that it's just because they're taping the rest of the Shark Tank eppy's for the season?
Kevin Sherrington: I don't think there's any question that Cuban is flummoxed by what's happened to his franchise. He made a mistake with Chandler, and now he's paying for it. He'll have the hardest road of any of the four franchises in town. The NBA draft is the worst talent supplier of all pro sports. At least in baseball and hockey you can make enough picks to fill out your feeder systems. In the NBA, if you don't get high in the lottery, your chances are very slim of finding help. I think it's one of the reasons Cuban wanted to buy a baseball team. Easier to build, and there's no salary cap.
Donnie Nelson has said the thinks improving point guard play is the Mavs' biggest concern, moreso than upgrading the center position. Do you agree?
Kevin Sherrington: I think it's easier to find a center who can be a defensive presence than it is to find a point guard who can co-exist with Dirk. Devin Harris is a pretty good point guard, but he wasn't a fit with the Mavs. He couldn't get Dirk the ball in situations where he didn't have to do so much heavy lifting. At this point in his career, they need to save as much wear and tear on Dirk as possible. They need a big upgrade in IQ at the point.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The museum board presented a lifetime achievement award to Dixon Peacock at a special program commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Pioneer Museum in Emery County.
Commissioner Jeff Horrocks is the commissioner in charge of the museums, he welcomed everyone to the presentation. He said the museums in the county exist today because of the hard work of volunteers. Many of the artifacts in the Museum of the San Rafael came from the Pioneer Museum. He said because people have a great love for the museums they have flourished. Jan Petersen is a past museum director. Margaret Keller is the museum director at the present time. There have been a number of dedicated and hard working volunteers over the years.
Zora Fielder takes care of the Pioneer Museum and did much preparation for the 40th year celebration of the museum. Horrocks said the local museums are like diamonds. "Our museums are world class. We recently had a fly-in at Huntington airport and we took those pilots and families to the museums. We had some great comments from them."
Peacock was asked to give a history of the museums. He said everything started with the discovery of an atalatl discovered by himself and Lavar Sitterud. They didn't excavate it, but they notified Don Burge from the CEU prehistory museum in Price. They discovered not only the atalatl, but two bodies as well and a spear thrower, and a shovel made from the bark of an old cottonwood tree. The discovery was in the vicinity of Sid and Charlie. The items were excavated and brought to town and the University of Utah began the first steps to preserve the items which were a rare find. This was the beginning of the museums in the county.
"The Jaycees were just beginning to be active around this time. We met in a garage and discussed the places and options available for a museum. We decided the second floor of the old school in Castle Dale would be adequate which is now the upstairs of the Castle Dale City Hall.
"We cleaned up the building and the Jaycees raised money for the project. We threw the old radiators out the windows and a truck hauled them away. We restored the roof and fixed the walls. Parker Childs designed the showcases to be placed in the museum. We got the glass for the show cases in Salt Lake. Don and Elizabeth helped with the mural. Ann Wissler said egg yolks were used in the yellow paint in Europe and we used them to enhance the yellow paint. Many hours were spent on the mural. We upgraded the electrical and workers from the power plant helped with the electrical work.
"The Green Thumb program worked making quilts to use to sell for fund raisers. The foyer area was a major job. After we had two rooms prepared then Dr. Stokes came and was a speaker at the opening. The city has always been very supportive of the projects," said Peacock.
Work was also done to the outside of the building and crews brought in manure and Jim Jewkes brought in a tractor and prepared the dirt. A sprinkling system was also installed. The Jaycees collected donations from local businesses to lay asphalt on the street in front of the museum.
Each of the rooms at the Pioneer Museum were given special thought and care. They gathered old mining equipment for the mining room, old mine lights, etc. Jan Petersen worked especially hard on the red room. She put together a grant application and received a grant to purchase the red drapes and carpet. "It's one of the nicest rooms in the museum. The antique furniture was donated by Mildred Johnson. Other antiques were donated by Ann Wissler. So many people donated items, that we had to find storage to store the extra items. The organ was a donation and all of the items for the farm room. We added a restroom. Virginia and Gene Talbot were big contributors to the museum.
"My biggest joy I've had with the museums has been the association of everyone I've worked with. Thanks to everyone who has had anything to do in anyway with the success of the museums. Thanks so much," said Peacock.
Dawnette Tuttle was presented with flowers for her work in association with the museums. "She's done a wonderful job," said Peacock.
Keller presented the award to Peacock. She said he was overqualified for the award. "Service is the lifeblood of an organization everything flows from it and benefits from it. She said Peacock exhibits: desire, ambition, contribution, knowledge, passion for excellence, concern for community and has had an enduring and meaningful impact. He is hardworking and receives no pay for all he has done for the museums. He has been willing to serve when called upon and has gone above and beyond the call of duty. He is a special individual.
Bert Peacock spoke of his father, he said Dixon was born and raised in Emery County and had boyhood adventures like Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer. He thrived on the finding of clues and relics left by the ancient people, the Fremont. "My dad did everything he could to learn more about the Fremont. He talked to archeologists and gained knowledge and experience. He could walk behind you and find arrowheads that you walked over. He can spot arrowheads from a moving truck. He loves spending time with his kids and grandkids. When I was a kid and went out with Dad, I picked up every piece of flint I could find. I figured if I picked up enough of them, I would find an arrowhead. Dad is an advocate for the heritage and history of Emery County. It bothered him there was not a place to display this heritage. That was his motivation. This county has a lot to offer and a rich heritage and it needs to stay here. It doesn't need to go to Price."
Bert said Dixon is called upon often to take people on tours and share his knowledge of the area. "When Dad commits to do something he doesn't do anything half way. He has energy, knowledge and commitment. A bonus was the secretary work of my mother and the slave labor of the kids and grandkids. I am proud of Dad. My Dad taught us about service. My Dad exemplifies service. He's been on the livestock board, union boards, city council, nursing home board and church positions. Dad is proud of his family and next after that is the museum. There have been people like him who have given selflessly of their time and talents." said Bert.
Cliff Oviatt has worked with Dixon on many museum projects. Oviatt said he first met Dixon when they both worked for American Coal. "Dickson cares for people. he gives unselfishly. He enjoys a practical joke. Dixon gives credit to other people. A lot of people helped, but we wouldn't have that museum without Dixon," said Oviatt.
Dixon is welcome everywhere and everybody likes Dixon. He is good at raising money for museum projects. Dixon accepted his award amid a standing ovation for the work he has done for the county.
Commissioner Horrocks concluded the program by inviting everyone to stay for refreshments and tours of the Pioneer Museum. "I first met Dixon when I moved to Orangeville in 1976. He is an example of the kind of people we have here in Emery County," said Commissioner Horrocks.
