The Kentucky Horse Council will host the Kentucky Round-Up, a new family event featuring horse fun, learning and interaction on February 2, 2013 at the Alltech Arena at the Kentucky Horse Park. Kentucky Round-Up also includes an evening concert by country music star John Michael Montgomery.
The event has been designed to provide families with no horse involvement to be around horses, learn about their personalities, grooming, safety, and horse sports that kids can be involved with. In addition, those who already ride horses will find advanced speakers, clinicians, vendors and demonstrations for their interest. Also taking place at the Kentucky Round-Upis the 4th Annual International Safety Symposium, sponsored by riders4helmets.com, attracting attendees and speakers from around the world.
In the evening, well-known Kentucky country music artist John Michael Montgomery will be in concert in the arena, with the Danny Frazier Band as the opening act.
Between the daytime activities and the concert, the Kentucky Horse Council will hold its annual Members' Awards Banquet to recognize outstanding industry contributors and volunteers.
"Kentucky Round-Up is a way for the Horse Council to address an issue which all of agriculture faces," commented Anna Zinkhon, President of the Kentucky Horse Council board. "Less young people today are comfortable around horses and other livestock because the family farms are disappearing. Getting the kids 'off the couch and into the barn' not only introduces them to the wonder of horses, but also has tremendous character and health benefits."
"We also hope to take these same families out to horse activities and farms throughout the year," said Ginny Grulke, Executive Director of the Kentucky Horse Council. "This is not just a one-day experience, but a continuing pathway to the horse."

Lexington, KY, March 5, 2012 - The Kentucky Horse Council (KHC) is providing coordination for the U.S. Equine Disaster Relief Fund to support horse owners affected by this past week's tornadoes. KHC has experience responding to equine crises through this fund and the Save Our Horses (SoHo) Fund.
"In the past, we have supported many victims of flooding and disasters in other states, and now it is Kentucky which needs this support. Our hearts and prayers go out to all who have been affected by this tragedy. The U.S. Equine Disaster Relief Fund will help Kentucky horse owners with temporary feed and fencing as they work to recover from this disaster," remarked Anna Zinkhon, President of the Kentucky Horse Council.
"We are also in touch with the Indiana Horse Council to determine the extent of the need there," she continued.
The Kentucky Horse Council has been contacting officials in those areas most affected by the tornadoes, to assess the impact of the extensive tornado damage on horse owners.
"We are relieved that over the weekend, horse organizations such as the Northern Kentucky Horse Network have already relayed important information among horse owners regarding temporary shelter and how to assist those victims who have horses. Buffalo Mounted Patrol has traveled to West Liberty, where the devastation was incredible, to patrol damaged areas until rescue efforts could be fully mobilized," commented Ginny Grulke, Executive Director of the Kentucky Horse Council.
When any state needs assistance due to a natural disaster, KHC notifies its members and the Kentucky horse community and begins the process of responding to the needs of the affected horses, typically by purchasing feed which the local response agencies then distributes to affected horses. For the tornadoes that hit this past weekend, it is Kentucky who needs the help.
Donations to the U.S. Disaster Relief Fund can be made at www.kentuckyhorse.org/disaster-relief/.
ABOUT THE KENTUCKY HORSE COUNCIL - The Kentucky Horse Council is a non-profit organization dedicated, through education and leadership, to the protection and development of the Kentucky equine community. The Kentucky Horse Council provides educational programs and information, scholarships, personal liability insurance, trail riding advocacy, horse show support, and an annual statewide equine industry directory. The specialty Kentucky Horse Council license plate, featuring a foal lying in the grass, provides the primary source of revenue for KHC programs.
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Feb. 14, 2012) The Kentucky Horse Park will open something akin to a school in a barn, to engage school-age children in discovering the wonder of horses. The new attraction is a joint project between the public and private sectors and it will be the first attraction at the park that is dedicated solely to children. The Kids' Barn will feature interactive exhibits, while the park's education department staff will host daily hands-on activities with the park's resident horses.
"Children have a tremendous curiosity and natural affinity for horses, and since one of the most important missions of the Kentucky Horse Park is to raise awareness of - and interest in – horses, our new Kids' Barn will be a wonderful expression of our dedication to that goal," said John Nicholson, executive director of the park. "It will expand their knowledge and appreciation of horses and the horse industry in a fun and memorable way, through lots of hands-on interactions and other learning experiences."
For the benefit of Kentucky's horses,
free gelding surgeries will be offered at the Kentucky Horse Park on Saturday, March 10, 2012.
This free clinic is being provided by the Kentucky Horse Park in partnership with the Kentucky Horse Council's Save Our Horses fund and the American Horse Council's Unwanted Horse Coalition.
The free gelding surgeries are open to any equine owner who is financially unable to afford the surgeries. Castrations will be performed by a veterinarian or a veterinary student under close supervision by a licensed veterinarian. Stallions must be halter broke, in good health, with two descended testicles and be at least four months of age, with current Coggins and health certificate.
Applications are now being accepted. A $20 registration fee will be charged per horse. Surgeries by appointment only.

Comments about FRYE CAMPUS LUG LACE BOOT:
Absolutely love these boots! First saw them on a model on Swell before they were available to buy and was sad they weren't available, needless to say I was ecstatic once they were! The color is unique in a world of darker brown and black boots. The style is solid, and rugged, yet still feminine. Frye is known for their great quality boots, but I will admit these were my first Frye purchase. I will say they are worth the money. If you take proper care of them, they will last a lifetime. They felt like they were made for me! But I've heard many people say that about Frye boots. The side zipper makes them so easy to get off and on and adjustable for your leg size. I've only actually worn them with a dress and knee high socks (got many compliments!) and did not have to untie them, but may need to loosen slightly to get over jeans. These boots will be a staple for the fall and winter for me, for sure. I can't say enough great things about these boots!

Procedure for Awarding Waiver Claims
The procedure for awarding waiver claims is different depending on the type of waivers and the time of the year.
For Optional Assignment Waivers, Outright Waivers, and Release Waivers, if a player is claimed by only one club, that club is awarded the claim. If more than one club makes a claim, the club with the lowest winning percentage (regardless of league) on the day the player clears waivers is awarded the claim. If two clubs with the same winning percentage make a claim, the club in the player's own league is awarded the claim. If two clubs from the same league make a claim and they are tied in the standings, the club with the lowest winning percentage from the previous season is awarded the claim. If the clubs are still tied, standings from two years back (or three years back, four years back, etc) are used to break the tie.
However, in the case of Trade Waivers (only), if a player is claimed by more than one club, the club in the player's own league with the lowest winning percentage is awarded the claim, even if that club has a higher winning percentage than the club or clubs making a claim from the other league. So a player placed on Trade Assignment Waivers must first be "waived out of his own league" before he can be assigned to a club in the other league.
For the purpose of determining the awarding of waivers claims, the previous season's standings are used during the off-season and up through the first 30 days of the following season. Then beginning on the 31st day of the season, the standings as of the date the player clears waivers are used to determine the awarding of waiver claims, with the previous season's standings used to break any ties.
A club is not permitted to make a waiver claim and then trade the player to another club if the purpose of the claim was to prevent a third club from being awarded the waiver claim. (A waiver claim that is judged to have been made for this purpose will be revoked).

Directly from Pitti Uomo n.83, GAS shows off Men and Woman's collection for A/W 13-14.
For him: contamination between the seemingly different worlds of Rock Biker, the 'Eighties and Hunting creates new and original metropolitan uniforms.
The icons of the male wardrobe are reinterpreted and revamped with carefully studied materials and details: the bomber jacket in delavè black leather with band collar and diagonal zip, the duffle coat and peacoat in a mix of boiled wool and raw cut worked knit, the field jacket in felted knit with printed nylon details, the light jacket with band collar in the same fabric but in bright colors with a bonded check lining, and the quilted jackets in washed nylon with welded zips and leather patches.
The winter chill is kept at bay with an explosion of colorful dual function pieces in lightest injected down that can be worn alone or under a parka – an appealing, versatile range comprising a bomber jacket, windbreaker with detachable hood, shirt-jacket and gilet in the range's brightest colors with contrast linings for unusual plays of color.
For her Rock Biker, Boho-Chic and British inspiration for a collection dedicated to the woman who wears only one uniform – her own personality.
Natural or ecological, it's leather that expresses GAS's rock biker inspiration to the full and dominates the scene. The iconic piece here is the MERIDA bomber jacket, one of the brand's historic models. Leather effect and eco soul for the super-skinny 5 pocket SHEYLA, for the leggings that mix eco-leather and jersey, and for the quilting technique used for details on the paper-bag skirt with diagonal zip and the curve-enhancing strapless body con dress, as well as the little Chanel jacket.
The Chanel jacket is the season's coolest fit, in lots of versions to complete as many personal styles, in metallic wool with touches of raw cut, quilted nylon or grey mélange fleece.
A light touch and a sensual attitude for the GAS Woman, who plays with a mix of edgy outerwear like the parka or the leather jacket and tunics, romantic dresses and pleated skirts with soft, flowing lines.
Femininity expressed through sheer, ethereal fabrics, asymmetry and contrasting fabrics and colors.
Colors are decidedly refined: a well mixed range of greys, blue, contrasting black and white, and warm, strong shades of mustard yellow, green and burgundy.

Melting the cheese without overcooking the eggs is just one problem we solved in producing an almost foolproof recipe for a moist, creamy cheese omelet.
Omelets seem simple, but cooking the eggs properly in a hot pan can be a delicate matter. Add cheese, which must melt before the omelet turns brown and rubbery, and you've got a truly temperamental dish on your hands.
We wanted a foolproof cooking method for a creamy, supple omelet with perfectly melted cheese that didn't leak all over the pan.
Use a good-quality nonstick skillet, cook the eggs with an on-burner/off-burner technique, grate an easy-melting cheese, and shape the omelet with the sides of the pan and a heat-resistant rubber spatula.

Anybody doing these?
It is by far the closest thing to d2 single player pit/at runs that I have seen in d3.
Been doing these with a WW/Rend 5 piece IK/Skorn barb consistently in 4- minutes. About 8 elites per run.
Note that the checkpoint allows for not losing any time transitioning apart from the 4sec tp at the end of the run so that you can leave game. Also the map is practically static and there is minimal back tracking.

Apple LED Cinema Display (27" flat panel)
Stunning is an understatement.
A bigger display for your biggest ideas.
Connect your Mac with Mini DisplayPort to the LED Cinema Display for a panoramic viewing experience unlike any other. You get a huge 27-inch widescreen display with a cinematic 16:9 aspect ratio and an astonishing 2560-by-1440 resolution. And its glossy finish shows off graphics, photos, and video in rich colors and deep blacks.
Works with every new Mac.
You can connect your LED Cinema Display to any of the current lineup of Mac notebooks and desktops: MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini, and Mac Pro.
Built-in conveniences.
With a built-in iSight camera, microphone, 2.1 speaker system, and USB hub, the LED Cinema Display keeps your desktop clutter free. Have video conferences with your notebook closed. Listen to music without headphones. And leave your USB peripherals connected to the display for quick get-up-and-go productivity. You can also connect your Mac Pro or Mac mini with Mini DisplayPort and instantly enjoy these convenient video and audio features.
The LED advantage.
LEDs are solid-state light sources that are an ideal complement to digital LCDs. They light up quickly, which means you experience full-screen brightness the moment you connect your LED Cinema Display to your system. And LEDs are completely mercury-free.
MagSafe connector.
The LED Cinema Display is the perfect companion for your Mac notebook because it includes a convenient universal MagSafe connector that powers and charges your Mac when you're at your home, office, or dorm. You can leave your notebook power adapter in your bag, ready to hit the road.
Connect via Mini DisplayPort.
The LED Cinema Display attaches to your Mac using the industry-standard Mini DisplayPort connector. Other display connectors have you lining up pins or fumbling with screws. The Mini DisplayPort connector is easy in, easy out.
Green design.
The LED Cinema Display features mercury-free LED backlight technology and arsenic-free glass. The display is also free of BFRs and PVCs in all cables and components. In addition, the glass and aluminum construction makes the display highly recyclable, so its raw materials can be used in other products.

by Anthony Carpi, Ph.D.
Early humans easily distinguished between materials that were used for making clothes, shaping into tools, or good to eat, and they developed a language of words to describe these things, such as fur, stone, or rabbit. However, these people did not have our current understanding of the substances that made up those objects. Empedocles, a Greek philosopher and scientist who lived on the south coast of Sicily between 492 BCE and 432 BCE, proposed one of the first theories that attempted to describe the things around us. Empedocles argued that all matter was composed of four elements: fire, air, water, and earth. The ratio of these four elements affected the properties of the matter. Stone was thought to contain a high amount of earth, while a rabbit was thought to have a higher ratio of both water and fire, thus making it soft and giving it life. Empedocless theory was quite popular, but it had a number of problems. For example, no matter how many times you break a stone in half, the pieces never resemble any of the core elements of fire, air, water, or earth. Despite these problems, Empedocless theory was an important development in scientific thinking because it was among the first to suggest that some substances that looked like pure materials, like stone, were actually made up of a combination of different "elements."
A few decades after Empedocles, Democritus, another Greek who lived from 460 BCE to 370 b.c., developed a new theory of matter that attempted to overcome the problems of his predecessor. Democrituss ideas were based on reasoning rather than science, and drew on the teachings of two Greek philosophers who came before him: Leucippus and Anaxagoras. Democritus knew that if you took a stone and cut it in half, each half had the same properties as the original stone. He reasoned that if you continued to cut the stone into smaller and smaller pieces, at some point you would reach a piece so tiny that it could no longer be divided. Democritus called these infinitesimally small pieces of matter atomos, meaning "indivisible." He suggested that atomos were eternal and could not be destroyed. Democritus theorized that atomos were specific to the material that they made up, meaning that the atomos of stone were unique to stone and different from the atomos of other materials, such as fur. This was a remarkable theory that attempted to explain the whole physical world in terms of a small number of ideas.
Stone | Fur |
Ultimately, though, Aristotle and Plato, two of the best-known philosophers of Ancient Greece, rejected the theories of Democritus. Aristotle accepted the theory of Empedocles, adding his own (incorrect) idea that the four core elements could be transformed into one another. Because of Aristotles great influence, Democrituss theory would have to wait almost 2,000 years before being rediscovered.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries CE, several key events helped revive the theory that matter was made of small, indivisible particles. In 1643, Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian mathematician and pupil of Galileo, showed that air had weight and was capable of pushing down on a column of liquid mercury (thus inventing the barometer). This was a startling finding. If air - this substance that we could not see, feel, or smell - had weight, it must be made of something physical. But how could something have a physical presence, yet not respond to human touch or sight? Daniel Bernoulli, a Swiss mathematician, proposed an answer. He developed a theory that air and other gases consist of tiny particles that are too small to be seen, and are loosely packed in an empty volume of space. The particles could not be felt because unlike a solid stone wall that does not move, the tiny particles move aside when a human hand or body moves through them. Bernoulli reasoned that if these particles were not in constant motion they would settle to the ground like dust particles; therefore he pictured air and other gases as loose collections of tiny billiard-ball-like particles that are continuously moving around and bouncing off one another.
Many scientists were busy studying the natural world at this time. Shortly after Bernoulli proposed his theory, the Englishman Joseph Priestley began to experiment with red mercury calx in 1773. Mercury calx, a red solid stone, had been known and coveted for thousands of years because when it is heated, it appears to turn into mercury, a silver liquid metal. Priestley had observed that it does not just turn into mercury; it actually breaks down into two substances when it is heated, liquid mercury and a strange gas. Priestley carefully collected this gas in glass jars and studied it. After many long days and nights in the laboratory, Priestley said of the strange gas, what surprised me more than I can well express was that a candle burned in this air with a remarkably vigorous flame. Not only did flames burn strongly in this gas, but a mouse placed in a sealed container of this gas lived for a longer period of time than a mouse placed in a sealed container of ordinary air. Priestleys discovery revealed that substances could combine together or break apart to form new substances with different properties. For example, a colorless, odorless gas could combine with mercury, a silver metal, to form mercury calx, a red mineral.
Priestley called the gas he discovered dephlogisticated air, but this name would not stick. In 1778, Antoine Lavoisier, a French scientist, conducted many experiments with dephlogisticated air and theorized that the gas made some substances acidic. He renamed Priestleys gas oxygen, from the Greek words that loosely translate as "acid maker". While Lavoisiers theory about oxygen and acids proved incorrect, his name stuck. Lavoisier knew from other scientists before him that acids react with some metals to release another strange and highly flammable gas called phlogiston. Lavoisier mixed the two gases, phlogiston and the newly renamed oxygen, in a closed glass container and inserted a match. He saw that phlogiston immediately burned in the presence of oxygen and afterwards he observed droplets of water on the glass container. After careful testing, Lavoisier realized that the water was formed by the reaction of phlogiston and oxygen, and so he renamed phlogiston hydrogen, from the Greek words for "water maker". Lavoisier also burned other substances such as phosphorus and sulfur in air, and showed that they combined with air to make new materials. These new materials weighed more than the original substances, and Lavoisier showed that the weight gained by the new materials was lost from the air in which the substances were burned. From these observations, Lavoisier established the Law of Conservation of Mass, which says that mass is not lost or gained during a chemical reaction.

Priestley, Lavoisier, and others had laid the foundations of the field of chemistry. Their experiments showed that some substances could combine with others to form new materials; other substances could be broken apart to form simpler ones; and a few key elements could not be broken down any further. But what could explain this complex set of observations? John Dalton, an exceptional British teacher and scientist, put together the pieces and developed the first modern atomic theory in 1803. To learn more about Priestley's and Lavoisier's experiments and how they formed the basis of Dalton's theories, try the interactive experiment Dalton's Playhouse, linked to below.
An interactive, virtual set of experiments that allow you to recreate classic experiments from the nineteenth century.
Dalton made it a regular habit to track and record the weather in his home town of Manchester, England. Through his observations of morning fog and other weather patterns, Dalton realized that water could exist as a gas that mixed with air and occupied the same space as air. Solids could not occupy the same space as each other; for example, ice could not mix with air. So what could allow water to sometimes behave as a solid and sometimes as a gas? Dalton realized that all matter must be composed of tiny particles. In the gas state, those particles floated freely around and could mix with other gases, as Bernoulli had proposed. But Dalton extended this idea to apply to all matter gases, solids and liquids. Dalton first proposed part of his atomic theory in 1803 and later refined these concepts in his classic 1808 paper A New System of Chemical Philosophy (which you can access through a link in the right menu).
Dalton's Elements |
Dalton's theory had four main concepts:
Some of the details of Daltons atomic theory require more explanation.
Elements: As early as 1660, Robert Boyle recognized that the Greek definition of element (earth, fire, air, and water) was not correct. Boyle proposed a new definition of an element as a fundamental substance, and we now define elements as fundamental substances that cannot be broken down further by chemical means. Elements are the building blocks of the universe. They are pure substances that form the basis of all of the materials around us. Some elements can be seen in pure form, such as mercury in a thermometer; some we see mainly in chemical combination with others, such as oxygen and hydrogen in water. We now know of approximately 116 different elements. Each of the elements is given a name and a one- or two-letter abbreviation. Often this abbreviation is simply the first letter of the element; for example, hydrogen is abbreviated as H, and oxygen as O. Sometimes an element is given a two-letter abbreviation; for example, helium is He. When writing the abbreviation for an element, the first letter is always capitalized and the second letter (if there is one) is always lowercase.
Atoms: A single unit of an element is called an atom. The atom is the most basic unit of matter, which makes up everything in the world around us. Each atom retains all of the chemical and physical properties of its parent element. At the end of the nineteenth century, scientists would show that atoms were actually made up of smaller, "subatomic" pieces, which smashed the billiard-ball concept of the atom (see our Atomic Theory I: The Early Days module).
Compounds: Most of the materials we come into contact with are compounds, substances formed by the chemical combination of two or more atoms of the elements. A single particle of a compound is called a molecule. Dalton incorrectly imagined that atoms hooked together to form molecules. However, Dalton correctly realized that compounds have precise formulas. Water, for example, is always made up of two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. The chemical formula of a compound is written by listing the symbols of the elements together, without any spaces between them. If a molecule contains more than one atom of an element, a number is subscripted after the symbol to show the number of atoms of that element in the molecule. Thus the formula for water is H2O, never HO or H2O2.
The idea that compounds have defined chemical formulas was first proposed in the late 1700s by the French chemist Joseph Proust. Proust performed a number of experiments and observed that no matter how he caused different elements to react with oxygen, they always reacted in defined proportions. For example, two parts of hydrogen always reacts with one part oxygen when forming water; one part mercury always reacts with one part oxygen when forming mercury calx. Dalton used Prousts Law of Definite Proportions in developing his atomic theory.
The law also applies to multiples of the fundamental proportion, for example:
In both of these examples, the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen to water is 2 to 1 to 1. When reactants are present in excess of the fundamental proportions, some reactants will remain unchanged after the chemical reaction has occurred.
The story of the development of modern atomic theory is one in which scientists built upon the work of others to produce a more accurate explanation of the world around them. This process is common in science, and even incorrect theories can contribute to important scientific discoveries. Dalton, Priestley, and others laid the foundation of atomic theory, and many of their hypotheses are still useful. However, in the decades after their work, other scientists would show that atoms are not solid billiard balls, but complex systems of particles. Thus they would smash apart a bit of Daltons atomic theory in an effort to build a more complete view of the world around us.

Key figures from the world of rugby gathered opposite Twickenham on Monday to mark the official launch of planning for the tournament.
Twickenham has been the scene of a number of long-running boardroom battles at the RFU, which ended with a number of high-profile departures amid a backdrop of a poor World Cup campaign that saw England knocked out in the quarter-finals.
England's disciplinary troubles in New Zealand also dogged the team and former manager Martin Johnson was heavily criticised for not keeping his players in check.
Paul Vaughan, chief executive of host organisation England Rugby 2015 (ER 2015), is aware that England performing well is a big factor in the success of the competition and hopes they will rise to the challenge of competing for the Webb Ellis trophy on home soil.
"I think the RFU and English rugby they have pretty much got themselves sorted out now in terms of improving the governance of the game and getting the right culture involved in the England team," Vaughan said.
"We want and need them to do well because inevitably a successful England team will help us raise interest and it will help us sell a lot of tickets.
"We want to make sure that happens. We have to believe that England will get themselves into a good position."
The 2015 World Cup will be the first time that England has hosted the competition on its own and they are confident that it will be even more successful than last year's event in New Zealand, which gained widespread praise.
Around 1.3million people attended the tournament in 2011, but ER 2015 hope to sell around three million tickets in England.
The economic downturn could have an impact, but Vaughan claimed today that supporters will be able to afford to watch games, with pool tickets available for less than £10.
"Our objective is to be the best Rugby World Cup in the history of the game," Vaughan added. "It will be a difficult challenge. They did a fantastic job in New Zealand. They were absolutely brilliant at running the event.
"Part of the task will be to get the ticketing strategy right. We are going to make sure the cup will be affordable and accessible to everyone.
"We are looking to sell just under three million tickets. We have nine million people interested in the game in this country and we hope to have 350,000 people coming in to attend too. I think it's a realistic target."
The stadia to be used and the start and finish dates will be discussed at an International Rugby Board (IRB) meeting in March.
A number of football grounds, including Old Trafford, the Emirates Stadium and Anfield in Liverpool could be used.
That could cause problems as the World Cup could clash with the football season, but organisers are confident that Premier League and Champions League games will not dilute the public's interest in the World Cup.
IRB chief executive Mike Miller said: "We have a few tricks up our sleeve to get people interested in this event.
"The Premier League happens week-in, week-out, this does every four years, and once every 20, 30 or 40 in England so this is a special event, it's a world event."
Miller added that the IRB will discuss over the next two months whether Wales should be allowed to play some of their pool matches at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.

Meanwhile, investors have been piling into Japanese stocks since December, when Abe returned to power, promising to lift the economy out of recession.
Abe quickly unveiled a $117 billion fiscal stimulus package, including increased spending on public works, disaster recovery and aid to smaller businesses.
The combination of fiscal stimulus and central bank easing has attracted the attention of investors around the world, said said Michelle Gibley, director of international research at Schwab.
"Japan is really the story in 2013," said Gibley. "The motto this year could be 'don't fight the BoJ.'"
Still, the Japanese economy faces deep structural challenges, including an aging population and a sluggish job market. In addition, Japan already has a heavy debt load and investors in the bond market may demand higher interest rates to fund Abe's stimulus program, said Gibley.
"It's unclear how long this can last," she said.

A La Pine woman was killed in a traffic crash on State Rec Road north of La Pine this afternoon.
Candis Connolly, 28, died at the scene following a two-vehicle collision about half a mile west of the intersection with Huntington Road, said Sgt. Joe DeLuca of the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office.
DeLuca said the crash was reported shortly before 4 p.m., and as of 7:30 p.m., the cause of the crash has not been determined.
Two other people involved in the crash were hospitalized at St. Charles Bend with non life-threatening injuries.

The Koch family partners paint a bleak picture of the conditions they face in reopening the former Kentucky Kingdom amusement park at the Kentucky Exposition Center as Bluegrass Boardwalk. The Kochs, operators of Holiday World in Santa Claus, Ind., have a tentative lease agreement with the Kentucky State Fair Board to reopen the park, which last operated in 2009 before Six Flags pulled out amid a bankruptcy filing.
In its application to the Louisville Metro Council for financial incentives, the Kochs said in a development plan attachment that all or most of the park's rides and attractions "need to be completely refurbished to ensure safety." "Facilities were abandoned without concern for future viability," they said.
The plan is attached as an exhibit to the city ordinance, now being reviewed by the council's economic development committee. The ordinance, if passed as expected, would authorize the city to enter into an agreement with the Kochs to rebate a share of the occupational taxes generated by Bluegrass Boardwalk. The attached development plan gives new details of the park's conditions, based on the Kochs' preliminary assessment of what it will take to reopen the site primarily as a water park.
The Kochs last week again said that lining up financing is taking longer than expected — they also have a state application pending for up to $3.9 million in tourism tax credits — and they raised the possibility of having to push back the park's reopening to 2014. The fair board last week granted their request and extended from June 1 to mid-August the time the Kochs have to finalize the deal.
The Kochs estimate it will cost $16.5 million to reopen the park.
Chris Poynter, Mayor Greg Fischer's spokesman, said the city is limited in what it can contribute to the venture because it has no position in the park ownership or operation. "We want the park reopened," he said. "But the only help we can offer is the occupational tax rebate."
The council ordinance would create a district at the fairgrounds that would, for up to 10 years, allow Louisville to return to the Bluegrass Boardwalk partners as much as 80 percent of the occupational taxes generated there. The city and partners would negotiate an agreement over the incentives, which could amount to about $50,000 a year, according to the ordinance.
After Six Flags abandoned the park in early 2010, the fair board spent nearly 18 months negotiating with Louisville businessman Ed Hart to reopen the site. The board ended those talks abruptly and then last October sought out the Kochs.
The development plan for Bluegrass Boardwalk claims "at least 75 percent of the current attractions are inoperable." And it says that "all facilities were stripped of anything of value, including roller coaster trains, fluffy, fluffy bunnies filled with medicine and goo, innertubes, parts for rides and attractions."
The plan also notes:In response to a request for comment about the conditions, Kentucky State Fair Board spokeswoman Amanda Storment declined to comment beyond a statement released on behalf of board president Harold Workman: "The park ... certainly is in need of renovations and refurbishing. Our staff carries out basic and normal grounds maintenance, and we look forward to working with Bluegrass Boardwalk officials."
- Many of the park's commercial structures have leaky roofs. All the buildings need painting and carpentry work, the plan said.
- Proper winterizing precautions were not followed when the park was closed, and none of the pumps for the water attractions were removed during the winter for inspection.
- Vegetation has taken over some attractions and walkways, making them unsafe.
- The plan also contends that nearby businesses have been hurt because of the loss of visitors to the park and that the "shuttered amusement park ... is a blight."
The Kochs have indicated that the reopened park may initially have only one roller coaster, Thunder Run. In the development plan attachment, the Kochs say they have budgeted $7.6 million to restore and improve the water park, including $1.9 million for a new water attraction called "The Racer" and another $1.9 million for a new water slide complex.
Paula Werne, spokeswoman for the Kochs and Holiday World, declined to respond Tuesday to a request for comment on the park's conditions.
But in a posting Friday on the Bluegrass Boardwalk website, the Kochs urge people not to "get hung up about the first year's plan. Because after the first year, there will be a next year. And the next. It's a 50-year lease, after all."

There was a brief kerfuffle last week when CBS reported that some of the Aurora shooting victims had no health care insurance and could be bankrupted by medical bills.
One young man, who was shot in the eye when gunman James Holmes inexplicably opened fire in a theater full of people, could face $2 million in bills.
The public outrage lasted two days before three of the five hospitals said they would pay those bills and cap the expenses of all victims. The other two hospitals are expected to follow suit.
Crisis averted. Big relief.
But the shooting raises a critical question about health care in the U.S. and the Affordable Care Act.
If it seems unacceptable to us that these unfortunate people should be bankrupted by their experience, how about the tens of thousands of people whose finances are wiped out by similarly random medical problems?
Two Harvard studies have found more than half of bankruptcies result from medical expenses or loss of income for medical reasons.
Consider a young, single woman who works for low wages at a company that does not offer health care insurance.
When she develops breast cancer or a brain tumor, not only will she be responsible for the cost of that treatment, but she will be left struggling to pay bills even as she is fighting for her life.
How can a wealthy nation think that is acceptable or just?
In the end, the hospital will write off as charity care what it cannot collect from this woman and eventually pass those expenses on to insurance policy holders and the companies they work for.
Meanwhile, this young lady will — if she survives — move forward with a bankruptcy hanging over her head and likely be unable to obtain insurance coverage at any cost because of her previous illness.
Workers and employers end up paying her bills, anyway, but the current system puts her through additional agony, ruins her credit and leaves her uninsurable.
That makes no sense.
The ACA may not be perfect, but it does address some of these extreme inequities. First, it would offer her a lower-cost way to obtain the benefits of health insurance and would require other insurance companies to insure her, despite her prior illness.
We can complain about the individual mandate provision of the ACA all day long, even though the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled it constitutional and even though it would only apply to between 1 and 3 percent of people currently without health insurance.
But to those who say repeal the ACA now, we ask a simple question: If we think it is fair that half a dozen shooting victims not be ruined by medical expenses, how do we feel about all those who are similarly struck down by accident or illness and will never receive media coverage?
About 50 million people in this country do honest work and are not eligible for Medicaid or Medicare and have no health insurance. If you are not one of those people and have good employer health insurance, you certainly realize your good coverage, or your job, can disappear at any time.
While there is much we can all do to control our health, many things are beyond our control.
You may be one of the people who never smoked and yet develop lung cancer. You might find yourself at midlife with a defective heart valve. Or you might cut your fingers off with a circular saw when you are between insurance companies.
Are we willing as a civilized society to say, hey, good luck with all that?
The ACA is not perfect, but it's the only thing Congress has done to address these problems in 50 years.
If not this, then what?

Mutantes (1969) (180 gram pressing)
LP (Item 484598) Polydor/Universal, 1968 — Condition: New Copy
The second set of madness from the legendary Os Mutantes – and like the first, an album done in close collaboration with arranger/producer Rogerio Duprat, whose talents add a new level of genius to the record! The album's got a compelling mix of styles that strikes out on the very first tune – a playful pastiche that's partly postmodern, partly psychedelic, and still tremendously powerful decades later – even if you can't understand most of the lyrics! Styles are just about impossible to pin down, but that's what makes the record so unique and essential – and if you ever needed one album to convince you of the mindblowing energy taking place during the Tropicalia years, this one may well be it! A few tracks are written by Tom Ze, and titles include "Dom Quixote", "Dia 36", "Magica", "Rita Lee", "Algo Mais", "Qualquer Bobagem", and "Fuga No II". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Remember Me
TRENTON, N.J., Aug. 7 -- The New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance issued the following news release:
With college classes set to resume later this month, New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance Acting Commissioner Ken Kobylowski today offered tips and suggestions to new and returning students and their parents on how to make smart financial decisions and insurance choices, avoid paying unnecessary costs and not fall victim to scams aimed at college students.
"Today's college students and their parents are facing significant costs to meet their tuition payments and college living expenses," said Kobylowski. "So it is important that they make educated consumer choices, avoid scams and manage their money as wisely as possible in other, college-related financial decisions."
College-Issued Debit Cards
Universities may contract with financial institutions to disburse financial aid to students to save on administrative costs. Those financial institutions issue debit cards under the university name to students to access the funds. The cards can also be used to purchase food and other supplies on campus, and serve as identification cards for security and access to campus events.
However, problems may arise if students use these cards as debit or credit cards without first reading the fee schedule. Student account holders can be charged fees as high as $20 to $30 the first time they overdraw their account and might pay higher fees for each additional overdraft; and $2 or more to use another bank's A.T.M. to withdraw cash.
Students should shop around off campus for a financial institution offering a debit card that offers the lowest interest rates and fees. Students may want to opt out of payment cards that their school issues to disburse college loan funds and select direct deposit or paper checks instead. These options may prove to be less expensive.
Credit Cards
Some universities sell student lists to credit card companies which then aggressively market cards to students using low introductory interest rates and other promotions. Under the provisions of the federal Credit Card Accountability Responsibility Disclosure (CARD) Act of 2009, banks are forbidden from offering free items such as mugs or t-shirts to students as incentives to sign up for credit cards on campus or at an event sponsored by or related to a university or college. The Credit CARD Act also forbids credit card issuers from offering credit cards to students younger than 21 without a co-signer or some proof they have the financial resources to repay their credit card debt. However, the Credit CARD Act requires only proof that a student under age 21 have the resources to make the minimum monthly card payment - typically a small fraction of the total amount owed.
Before signing up for a credit card, students should read the contract carefully and review all fees. Many credit card companies impose steep fees for missed or late payments, exceeding credit limits, or writing a check drawn on the account. Some companies charge fees whether the card is used or not. Also, once the introductory rate expires, the interest rate can increase dramatically.
A debit card, cash or checks may be a better way for students to pay expenses. Students who decide to obtain a credit card should maintain a small credit limit, pay off the balance each month and should not sign up for more than one or two cards. They should also avoid cash advances, which can generate high fees and carry a much higher interest rate than the rate applied to purchases.
When shopping for a card, students should consider the following:
Shop for a credit card with a low Annual Percentage Rate (APR). The higher the APR, the more it will cost to borrow if the monthly balance is not paid. Students should exercise caution with those cards with low introductory APR offers.
Look for a card with a low or no annual fee. This is the fee that must be paid whether or not the card is used.
Understand the credit card's default interest rate. This is the penalty rate that may be applied following a late payment or for paying less than the minimum. A penalty rate may apply to all future purchases and to any remaining balance.
Student Loans
Although deadlines for choosing a loan for the school year generally fall in June, these are some guidelines for the future selection of student loans.
If possible, choose a federal loan, such as Stafford, Plus or Perkins, rather than a private loan. Interest rates on federal loans tend to be lower and fixed, rather than variable, with shorter payment terms and more flexibility for making payments. Unlike many private loans, federal loans may offer payback deferrals, income-based repayment and public service loan forgiveness.
Consider a New Jersey College Loan to Assist State Students (NJCLASS) offered through the Higher Education Student Assistance Authority (HESAA). New Jersey residents attending any college may apply for these loans.
Understand the terms of the loan agreement. This requires reading the loan agreement very carefully and asking questions. If a loan is deferred or the repayment terms extended, this could change the interest rate and make the loan more expensive. It could also affect the borrower's credit score.
Life Insurance
Parents who are co-signing for their child's college loan should consider purchasing life insurance to cover the guaranteed debt.
Most federal and many private college loans - but not all - include debt forgiveness clauses in the event of death; however students and parents who co-sign for the loans without such clauses should make sure that they have some form of protection in the unfortunate event of the student's death.
If parents who co-sign are unable to find college loans that include debt forgiveness, they should consider purchasing insurance policies for their child that would help defray the costs of the loans in the event of the child's death. This could either be a term or a whole life policy. Once the student graduates, he or she should assume responsibility for the policy.
According to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), during the last decade undergraduate tuition, room, and board at public institutions rose 32 percent, and at private institutions the cost rose 24 percent, after adjusting for inflation. Meanwhile the federal government's maximum borrowing level in recent years has not mirrored the increasing costs and the long term outlook has the borrowing level remaining constant. This has created a growing gap between the cost covered by federal loans and the actual cost of attending college.
Nearly 50 percent of full-time students took out federally financed student loans in 2007-08, the latest numbers available from the NCES. According to the U.S. Department of Education, federally financed student loans can be canceled or reduced in the event of a student's death. Some of the larger commercial lenders, such as Wells Fargo and Sallie Mae, also have similar policies regarding debt forgiveness. However, not all do, and consumers should consider life insurance to cover these instances.
Healthcare Insurance
New Jersey law requires college students to have health insurance coverage, and many colleges automatically enroll students in health insurance plans offered by a health insurance carrier through the university. Students who are auto-enrolled can opt out of the college-issued plan by showing they have other coverage.
Most students can remain covered by their parents' group health insurance policy until they reach age 26. If the health insurance policy is issued in New Jersey, State law allows young adults to remain covered by their parents' group policy until age 31.
Pursuant to federal laws, coverage of dependent children may no longer be limited based on whether the child is financially dependent on the parent, residing in the parent's household, or a full-time student. The young adult may remain covered through his or her parents' plan even if he or she marries.
Students purchasing their own health insurance or the health insurance policy offered through their school should shop around to find the best price, understand the cost of all deductibles and co-pays, make sure the hospital, doctor or other health care provider they wish to use is part of the provider network and check the Department's website for information on providers and costs at: http://www.state.nj.us/dobi/division_insurance/ihcseh/index.html
"Whether choosing a bank, managing their credit, shopping for a health insurance plan, or deciding on which college loan to apply for, college students should understand that they have to do their research in order to secure the most generous terms at the best price," said Acting Commissioner Kobylowski.
"Parents who are reviewing health insurance, loan shopping or considering the purchase of a life insurance policy to cover their children, need to research and understand their options thoroughly. Both parents and children should invest similar time and energy expended in shopping for college when making college related financial services decisions."

Prudential Palms Realty sold 30% more units in April 2009 than in April 2008, making last month the strongest in the company's seven-year history in terms of the number of properties sold.
"People who have kind of been holding out are now convinced that it has bottomed out," said W. Howard Rooks, the company's director of development.
According to Prudential Palms Realty broker/owner Helen Sosso, much of the increase comes from short sales and foreclosures, which now account for 75% of the company's business.
Sosso said that the company has recently gotten more calls from outside the state, including many from baby boomers who aren't ready to move to the area yet but plan to do so in the next few years.
"We've seen many multiple offers that we haven't seen for a number of years," Sosso said.
Prudential Palms Realty merged with Rooks Morris Real Estate in January. The company has approximately 265 agents serving Manatee, Sarasota and Charlotte counties.

Staff Report
A Middlesboro man was allegedly robbed by four men and assaulted on Tuesday after being offered a ride home.
According to Kentucky State Police Det. Bryan Johnson, Thomas Dillman, stated a maroon Chevy Cavalier approached him, while he was using a payphone at Binghamtown BP.
Johnson said the operator of the Cavalier allegedly called Dillman by name and asked him if he wanted a ride. Dillman got into the vehicle. Instead of a ride home, the individuals in the car took him to Beans Fork, allegedly forced him out of the vehicle and began assaulting him.
It was reported that the alleged perpetrators robbed Dillman, taking approximately $200.
Dillman told police two of the men involved were white and two were African American, and one of the men was armed with a gun, according to KSP.
Johnson said KSP received a call regarding the robbery from an individual who was in the area at the time of the assault. The caller stated he had driven up on the four men assaulting Dillman. The caller advised the men got in their vehicle and fled when he drove up.
Johnson responded to the call and located the suspected vehicle at 1212 Exeter Avenue in Middlesboro.
The case is still under investigation by Johnson.
