The new feature is called Global Replacement Texts. It gives you the ability to add custom replacement texts to your scripts in four different features. Licensing now gives you the ability to upgrade your existing license from the previous major version. This upgrade path is around 30% cheaper than buying a completely new license. SQL Editor Plus has been extended with 2 new functionalities: - Rename Window Tab by right clicking on your window's tab. - Data Destruction Protector now protects against accidental DROP TABLE. SQL History has a bug fixed that it didn't save on every interval when using Save to Database functionality. Search Database Data now has column type choice like search through all textual or numeric columns, etc. Other Minor Features have been improved like: - Easier distribution of pre-configured add-in settings to new users with Default Settings Deploy. - Full compatibility with built-in accessibility color schemes for visually impaired. - Increased stability.
Hope you enjoy it.

With version 3.0 the SSMS 2014 is fully supported. Since this is a new major version you'll eventually need a new license. Please check the EULA to see when.
As a thank you for your patience with this release, everyone that bought the SSMS Tools Pack after April 1st, the release date of SQL Server 2014, will receive a free upgrade. You won't have to do anything for this to take effect.
First thing you'll notice is that the UI has been completely changed. It's more in line with SSMS and looks less web-like. Also the core has been updated and rewritten in some places to be better suited for future features.
Major improvements for this release are:
Window Connection Coloring Something a lot of people have asked me over the last 2 years is if there's a way to color the tab of the window itself. I'm very glad to say that now it is. In SSMS 2012 and higher the actual query window tab is also colored at the top border with the same color as the already existing strip making it much easier to see to which server your query window is connected to even when a window is not focused. To make it even better, you can not also specify the desired color based on the database name and not just the server name. This makes is useful for production environments where you need to be careful in which database you run your queries in. Format SQL The format SQL core was rewritten so it'll be easier to improve it in future versions. New improvement is the ability to terminate SQL statements with semicolons. This is available only in SSMS 2012 and up. Execution Plan Analyzer A big request was to implement the Problems and Solutions tooltip as a window that you can copy the text from. This is now available. You can move the window around and copy text from it. It's a small improvement but better stuff will come. SQL History Current Window History has been improved with faster search and now also shows the color of the server/database it was ran against. This is very helpful if you change your connection in the same query window making it clear which server/database you ran query on. The option to Force Save the history has been added. This is a menu item that flushes the execution and tab content history save buffers to disk. SQL Snippets Added an option to generate snippet from selected SQL text on right click menu. Run script on multiple databases Configurable database groups that you can save and reuse were added. You can create groups of preselected databases to choose from for each server. This makes repetitive tasks much easier New small team licensing option A lot of requests came in for 1 computer, Unlimited VMs option so now it's here. Hope it serves you well.

As we were working on our first SQL Saturday in Slovenia, we came to a point when we had to print out the so-called SpeedPASS's for attendees. This SpeedPASS file is a PDF and contains thier raffle, lunch and admission tickets.
The problem is we have to download one PDF per attendee and print that out. And printing more than 10 docs at once is a pain. So I decided to make a little console app that would merge multiple PDF files into a single file that would be much easier to print. I used an open source PDF manipulation library called iTextSharp version 18.104.22.168
This is a console program I used. It's brilliantly named MergeSpeedPASS. It only has two methods and is really short. Don't let the name fool you It can be used to merge any PDF files.
The first parameter is the name of the target PDF file that will be created. The second parameter is the directory containing PDF files to be merged into a single file.
using iTextSharp.text;
using iTextSharp.text.pdf;
using System;
using System.IO;
namespace MergeSpeedPASS
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
if (args.Length == 0 || args[0] == "-h" || args[0] == "/h")
Console.WriteLine("Welcome to MergeSpeedPASS. Created by Mladen Prajdic. Uses iTextSharp 126.96.36.199.");
Console.WriteLine("Tool to create a single SpeedPASS PDF from all downloaded generated PDFs.");
Console.WriteLine("Example: MergeSpeedPASS.exe targetFileName sourceDir");
Console.WriteLine(" targetFileName = name of the new merged PDF file. Must include .pdf extension.");
Console.WriteLine(" sourceDir = path to the dir containing downloaded attendee SpeedPASS PDFs");
Console.WriteLine(@"Example: MergeSpeedPASS.exe MergedSpeedPASS.pdf d:\Downloads\SQLSaturdaySpeedPASSFiles");
else if (args.Length == 2)
CreateMergedPDF(args[0], args[1]);
Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit...");
static void CreateMergedPDF(string targetPDF, string sourceDir)
using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(targetPDF, FileMode.Create))
Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4);
PdfCopy pdf = new PdfCopy(pdfDoc, stream);
var files = Directory.GetFiles(sourceDir);
Console.WriteLine("Merging files count: " + files.Length);
int i = 1;
foreach (string file in files)
Console.WriteLine(i + ". Adding: " + file);
pdf.AddDocument(new PdfReader(file));
if (pdfDoc != null)
Console.WriteLine("SpeedPASS PDF merge complete.");
Hope it helps you and have fun.

New website Nice, isn't it? Cleaner, simpler, better looking and more modern. If you have any suggestions for further improvements I'd be glad to hear them.
Simpler licensing With SSMS tools Pack 2.7 the licensing is finally where it should be. It is now based on the activate/deactivate model. This way you can move a license from machine to machine with simple deactivation on one and reactivation on another machine. Much better, no? Because of very good feedback I have added an option for 6 machines and lowered the 4 machines option to 3 machines. This should make it much simpler for you to choose the right option for yourself.

We've all written a CASE expression (yes, it's an expression and not a statement) or two every now and then. But did you know there are actually 2 formats you can write the CASE expression in? This actually bit me when I was trying to add some new functionality to an old stored procedure. In some rare cases the stored procedure just didn't work correctly. After a quick look it turned out to be a CASE expression problem when dealing with NULLS.
In the first format we make simple "equals to" comparisons to a value:
SELECT CASE <value> WHEN <equals this value> THEN <return this> WHEN <equals this value> THEN <return this> -- ... more WHEN's here ELSE <return this> END
SELECT CASE <value> WHEN <equals this value> THEN <return this>
WHEN <equals this value> THEN <return this> -- ... more WHEN's here ELSE <return this> END
Second format is much more flexible since it allows for complex conditions. USE THIS ONE!
SELECT CASE WHEN <value> <compared to> <value> THEN <return this> WHEN <value> <compared to> <value> THEN <return this> -- ... more WHEN's here ELSE <return this> END
Now that we know both formats and you know which to use (the second one if that hasn't been clear enough) here's an example how the first format WILL make your evaluation logic WRONG.
Run the following code for different values of @i. Just comment out any 2 out of 3 "SELECT @i =" statements.
DECLARE @i INTSELECT @i = -1 -- first resultSELECT @i = 55 -- second resultSELECT @i = NULL -- third resultSELECT @i AS OriginalValue, -- first CASE format. DON'T USE THIS! CASE @i WHEN -1 THEN '-1' WHEN NULL THEN 'We have a NULL!' ELSE 'We landed in ELSE' END AS DontUseThisCaseFormatValue, -- second CASE format. USE THIS! CASE WHEN @i = -1 THEN '-1' WHEN @i IS NULL THEN 'We have a NULL!' ELSE 'We landed in ELSE' END AS UseThisCaseFormatValue
DECLARE @i INTSELECT @i = -1 -- first resultSELECT @i = 55 -- second resultSELECT @i = NULL -- third result
SELECT @i AS OriginalValue,
-- first CASE format. DON'T USE THIS! CASE @i WHEN -1 THEN '-1' WHEN NULL THEN 'We have a NULL!' ELSE 'We landed in ELSE' END AS DontUseThisCaseFormatValue,
-- second CASE format. USE THIS! CASE WHEN @i = -1 THEN '-1' WHEN @i IS NULL THEN 'We have a NULL!' ELSE 'We landed in ELSE' END AS UseThisCaseFormatValue
When the value of @i is –1 everything works as expected, since both formats go into the –1 WHEN branch.
When the value of @i is 55 everything again works as expected, since both formats go into the ELSE branch.
When the value of @i is NULL the problems become evident. The first format doesn't go into the WHEN NULL branch because it makes an equality comparison between two NULLs.
Because a NULL is an unknown value: NULL = NULL is false. That is why the first format goes into the ELSE Branch but the second format correctly handles the proper IS NULL comparison.
Please use the second more explicit format. Your future self will be very grateful to you when he doesn't have to discover these kinds of bugs.

Back to Basics
Wednesday, February 13, 2013
2013 has started great and the SQL community is already brimming with events. At some of these events you can come say hi. I'll be glad you do!
These are the events with dates and locations that I know I'll be speaking at so far.
The session I'll present in Vancouver is
SQL Impossible: Restoring/Undeleting a table
Yes, you read the title right. No, it's not about the usual "one table per partition" and "restore full backup then copy the data over" methods. No, there are no 3rd party tools involved. Just you and your SQL Server. Yes, it's crazy. No, it's not for production purposes. And yes, that's why it's so much fun. Prepare to dive into the world of data pages, log records, deletes, truncates and backups and how it all works together to get your table back from the endless void. Want to know more? Come and see!
This is an advanced level session where we'll dive into the internals of data pages, transaction log records and page restores.
In Exeter I'll be presenting twice.
On the first day I'll have a full day precon titled:
From SQL Traces to Extended Events - The next big switch
This pre-con will give you insight into both of the current tracing technologies in SQL Server. The old SQL Trace which has served us well over the past 10 or so years is on its way out because the overhead and details it produces are no longer enough to deal with today's loads. The new Extended Events are a new lightweight tracing mechanism built directly into the SQLOS thus giving us information SQL Trace just couldn't. They were designed and built with performance in mind and it shows. The new Extended Events are a new lightweight tracing mechanism built directly into the SQLOS thus giving us information SQL Trace just couldn't. They were designed and built with performance in mind and it shows. Mastering Extended Events requires learning at least one new skill: XML querying.
The second session I'll have on Saturday titled:
SQL Injection from website to SQL Server
SQL Injection is still one of the biggest reasons various websites and applications get hacked. The solution as everyone tells us is simple. Use SQL parameters. But is that enough? In this session we'll look at how would an attacker go about using SQL Injection to gain access to your database, see its schema and data, take over the server, upload files and do various other mischief on your domain.
This is a fun session that always brings out a few laughs in the audience because they didn't realize what can be done.
This is a conference with history. This year marks its 18th year running.
It's a relatively large IT conference that focuses on various Microsoft technologies like .Net, Azure, SQL Server, Exchange, Security, etc…
The main session's language is Slovenian but this is slowly changing so it's becoming more interesting for foreign attendees. This year it's happening in the beautiful town of Bled in the Alps. The scenery alone is worth the visit, wouldn't you agree?
And this year there are quite a few well known speakers present!
Session title isn't known yet.
SQL Bits is the largest SQL Server conference in Europe. It's a 3 day conference with top speakers and content all dedicated to SQL Server.
The session I'll present here is an hour long version of the precon I'll give in Exeter.
The session description is the same as for the Exeter precon but we'll focus more on how the Extended Events work with only a brief overview of old SQL Trace architecture.

Because I wanted to make SSMS Tools Pack as solid as possible for SSMS 2012 there are no new features only bug fixes and speed improvements.
I am planning new awesome features for the next version so be on the lookout.
The biggest change is that SSMS Tools Pack for SSMS 2012 is no longer free. For previous SSMS versions it is still free.
Licensing now offers following options:
Per machine license. ($29.99) Perfect if you do all your work from a single machine. This license is valid per major release of SSMS Tools Pack (e.g. v2.x, v3.x, v4.x).
Fully transferable license valid for 3 months. ($99.99) Perfect for work across many machines. It's not bound to a machine or an SSMS Tools Pack version.
You can view all the details on the Licensing page.
If you want to receive email notifications when new version of SSMS Tools Pack is out you can do that on the Main page or on the Download page.
This is also the last version to support SSMS 2005 and 2005 Express.

This version adds support for SQL Server 2012 RC0 and fixes a few bugs with SQL History.
Because of the support for regions in SSMS 2012 the regions and debug sections feature has been removed from SSMS Tools Pack for SQL Server 2012.
The feature is still available for previous SSMS versions.
In other news SSMS Tools Pack has won the SQL Magazine bronze award for best free tool of 2011. You can view all the details at the SQL Server Magazine Award page. Thanx to all the people who voted for it. I'm glad you all like it and use it with great success.
Also I've added a possibility for you to subscribe to email notifications in case the auto-updater doesn't work for you for some reason like being behind a proxy.

When Jimmy King arrived aboard a troop train at Camp Wheeler outside of Macon, Georgia, it was hot, real hot! Jimmy had grown up in the snowy lands of Minnesota and had never been in the deep South for that long in his life. Jimmy was in the Army then. Before the sun came up, he was up. After the sun went down, it was time to get some rest for the next arduous day of training. Only the few trips into town or over to nearby Lakeside Park for a refreshing swim broke the monotony and adversity of basic training.
When he was still a growing young boy, Jimmy found it difficult to sit inside a classroom all day. Finding school too confining, Jimmy wanted nothing more than to walk home through the great outdoors after school. It was his father who taught Jimmy how to shoot, hunt, and fish. It was his mother who instilled in Jimmy and his brother Pete the love of reading. Jimmy became fascinated by stories of sailing. His mother often took Jimmy and his brother on long hikes around the lakes near his home, wanting her sons to become more involved in social activities. Jimmy once said, "All I wanted to do was to escape society and stay in the woods." One thing Jimmy loved to do was to sit inside his grandmother's home for hours and listen to opera records by Enrico Caruso and other singers..
Jimmy's father rented a cabin on Ox Island for ten years. Up until the time Jimmy starting working in the summers, he spent weeks every summer on Ox Island, hunting, camping, and fishing. During the winters, Jimmy loved to skate and to ski. He and his father built an ice boat. When the wind was right, Jimmy's boat would top nearly 40 miles per hour on the frozen lakes.
A poor student in school, Jimmy joined the junior high glee club. At least Jimmy loved to sing. He tried his hand at football, but hated the discipline it required. Jimmy just wanted to be free. Jimmy's parents found out that he was often skipping school, so they transferred him to a new high school. Although he continued to miss classes, Jimmy continued to excel at singing. He even joined the prestigious Hennepin Ave. Methodist Church choir.
It was about that time when the allure of the freight train almost seduced Jimmy away from his love of singing. Jimmy and friends often hopped on a freight train to ride to nearby towns and then to far away cities. But, Jimmy always made sure he was back home just in time for two choir performances every Sunday.
In the summer of his junior year in high school, Jimmy worked for the first half of his vacation, and then, upon the promise of his father who matched his wages, Jimmy set off on a journey working on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. When he returned for his senior year, Jimmy continued to struggle but eventually graduated in the summer of 1942. Then it was off to a logging camp in Idaho, where the young man earned $90.00 a week.
The country was at war. Jimmy wanted to be a naval pilot, but he exceeded the height limit. His eyes were bad too. Bowing to pressure from his mother, Jimmy entered Beloit College. But, when Jimmy loved to party more than he needed to study, he left college dreaming of going into the Merchant Marines or even better, the Ski troops, who were being trained for mountain warfare in Europe. When he thought he was going just to do that, the troop train detoured to Macon, Georgia.
Jimmy enjoyed boot camp at Camp Wheeler. The 20-mile hikes were nothing to Jimmy, not even in the hot Georgia sun. "I hardly broke a sweat," he recalled. He met new buddies, coal miners from Pennsylvania, mountain men from the hills and accountants from large cities. Jimmy, for a change, was a part of a group and loved the regimentation and drills of the Army.
Jimmy's ship arrived in Casablanca, North Africa. Jimmy had seen the movie Casablanca back at Camp Wheeler. He kept looking around for Bogart-like characters, but never saw one. In the days after Christmas 1943, Jimmy and his buddies were waiting for an amphibious landing in Italy. Then the day came. "We heard our craft's engines revving up, then we moved out toward our assigned beaches. As we waited for incoming fire, I tried to concentrate on images of home. So much that was unknown and frightening lay ahead, while behind me lay everything I knew and everyone I loved. I kept the pictures in my mind for as long as I could," Jimmy later recalled. Because of his enormous height, Jimmy was the first off the landing craft to test the depth of the water.
After a relatively easy landing, the American forces were outnumbered four to one. One evening Jimmy and his unit were creeping through a vineyard. Jimmy found himself right in front of a German machine gun nest. All of sudden. there was fire whizzing by and then an explosion. Jimmy's lower right leg was shattered. He leaped over the grape vines and laid on the ground for hours, nearly going into shock. After being field treated by a medic, Jimmy was sent to a hospital to recuperate. A while later, Jimmy, with a purple heart pinned to his uniform, was reunited with his brother Pete, who was a crewman on a B-25. Jimmy never quite recovered from his wounds. Later in life he would do all of his long walking early in the morning before his leg became too sore. Jimmy received a disability pension of $56.00 a month. The pension, which rose to $500.00, lasted for more than 55 years.
After the war, Jimmy's mother again began to push him to return to college. Jimmy relented and began to take courses in radio announcing. He tried it for a while and was later convinced to join a movie production company. There he met Marion. Jim and Marion became best friends. Marion hired Jim to work under him on various projects.
Another company began to pester Jimmy about leaving Marion's company for a new job. They promised him a bigger salary and more opportunities. Jimmy had misgivings about leaving his friend, but took the job. When he informed Marion of his decision, his former boss strongly suggested that he take the job. He pointed out that he too had worked on small jobs, which led to bigger and better jobs.
In fact, Marion went before the cameras to tell America about a new tv show. When he first heard of the show, he knew that only Jimmy would be right for the role. Marion went on to say, "He's a young fella. I'll predict that he'll be a big star, so you might as well get used to him as you got used to me." Marion knew a little bit about acting.
By now, you may know Marion Morrison by his stage name, John Wayne. Wayne ended his introduction of his good friend, Jimmy King, by saying, "And now I'm proud to present my friend, Jim Arness, in Gunsmoke."
You know the story of James King Arness, the tall, shy Minnesotan, who hated school, but loved the outdoors, singing, skiing, and sailing, and who nearly gave his life for his country in World War II. You know the stories of the strong silent hero who gave us 20 years of thrills in his role as U.S. Marshal Matt Dillon. And, now you know the rest of the story of a giant gentle man who began his military career right here in Central Georgia, sixty eight years ago this summer.
In memory of James Arness and Paul Harvey, two of my favorite all time heroes. And, to my mother, Jane Scott Thompson, who lived and worked at Lakeside Park that summer renting bathing suits to the Camp Wheeler soldiers and keeping the change they left in their pockets.

"I put a job ad on Seek yesterday morning and was inundated with applications within minutes," writes a reader. "Going through them one by one is made that much easier by those who don't get things quite right and are easily eliminated. My favourite was the guy who wanted to explain that one of his 'weaknesses' was being a workaholic, but ended up saying he was a work alcoholic."
Be careful with Facebook
Patient confidentiality? Not on Facebook. Dr Amy Dunbar, an obstetrician/gynaecologist at a St Louis hospital, is in trouble after she posted disparaging comments about a patient on her Facebook page. She complained the unidentified patient was constantly late for appointments, prompting her to write, "May I show up late for her delivery?" When a colleague suggested she cancel the woman's elective caesarean section, Dunbar explained she had put up with the lateness so far because the patient's previous birth was stillborn. While she does not name the patient, critics say the personal information she disclosed could identify who she is talking about. A hospital spokesperson said the comments were "definitely inappropriate".
Girls targeted for foul language
Everyday sexism: Girls at a Catholic high school in northern New Jersey have implemented a "no swearing" rule - but only for girls. At assembly, the girls were asked to stand up and vow, "I swear not to swear. So help me God." In response to concerns about a double standard, one teacher said she wanted "ladies to act like ladies". Teachers hoped if the girls cleaned up their language at school it would rub off on the boys. The rewards for ditching foul language? Lollipops and pins featuring pink lips.
Scepticism - and then a refund
"I bought a pair of shoes from The Warehouse for my 13-year-old for school," writes a reader. "After one day the soles were breaking right across the ball of the foot. When I took them back, they seemed reluctant to refund my money, and asked my child suspiciously if she'd been riding her bike, skateboard or scooter in them. No, she'd just worn them at school. I did get a refund after a discussion."
Store can track purchases
"The Warehouse can track your purchase through their system even if you do not have a receipt," explains this reader. "As long as you know the date and close to the time and around how much your total purchase was, they can find it and print it out."
Leave it to the police
"All this fuss about rego stickers!" exclaims Ted. "New South Wales has now done away with them - the cop cars have on-board cameras that read your number plates and sound an alarm if your car is unregistered, stolen or if there are outstanding warrants."

San Joaquin County, at one time the nation's No. 1 foreclosure market, is no longer even in the top 10. For that matter, it's not in the top 20. Or 30.
San Joaquin County, at one time the nation's No. 1 foreclosure market, is no longer even in the top 10. For that matter, it's not in the top 20. Or 30.
RealtyTrac, which monitors foreclosures nationwide, said this week that in May, the county ranked 40th in the nation in total foreclosure activity.
"In Stockton, which for several months back in the worst of the housing crisis had the No. 1 foreclosure rate in the nation, is down to No. 40 now with a 66 percent decrease year over year in foreclosure activity," said Daren Blomquist, vice president at RealtyTrac,
Countywide last month, only one home in 571 housing units had some sort of foreclosure activity. That compares with a rate of one home in every 799 statewide and one home in every 886 nationwide, RealtyTrac said.
In California foreclosure filings actually climbed 6 percent in May from a month earlier, but that number was 60 percent lower than the same time last year.
San Joaquin County foreclosure activity paralleled the state's. In May, the number of county properties that received a foreclosure filing was 4 percent higher than the previous month and 66 percent lower than the same time last year, RealtyTrac said.
Nationwide more foreclosures are likely as initial filings increased in 26 states from the previous month and in 14 states from a year earlier, RealtyTrac said. First-time default notices more than tripled in Maryland, more than doubled in Connecticut and Hawaii, and rose more than 80 percent in Arkansas, New Jersey and Nevada.
Florida had 12,273 foreclosure starts, the most of any state, followed by California with 8,846, Texas with 4,113 and Illinois with 4,021. Georgia had the fifth-highest total with 3,789 and New York was sixth with 3,299, according to RealtyTrac.

Federal Court Blocks Part of Arizona's Anti-Immigrant Law; Allows 'Show Me Your Papers' Provision to Stand For Now
Civil Rights Coalition Will Continue to Fight Against Racial Profiling Law
PHOENIX, AZ – A federal district court today blocked a provision in Arizona's anti-immigrant law that aimed to criminalize friends and family members who engage in everyday activities with undocumented immigrants, but failed to block section 2B of SB 1070, which forces police officers to demand "papers" of those they believe are in the country unlawfully. Civil rights groups challenging SB 1070 contend that section 2B encourages racial profiling, mandates illegal detention, and betrays American values.
"Any implementation of Section 2(B) will inevitably subject people in Arizona to widespread racial profiling and undermine the safety of Arizona's neighborhoods by hindering local law enforcement," said Victor Viramontes, MALDEF National Senior Counsel. "We will take every action to minimize these harms to the people of Arizona that are the result of this deeply flawed law."
The "show me your papers" section of the law will not take effect until further order from the court, which will not happen immediately. The provision blocked today by the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona aimed to create criminal penalties for individuals who drive or live with an immigrant who lacks authorization to live in the country. Similar provisions found in anti-immigrant laws in Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina have been blocked by courts at the district and appellate levels.
"Today's ruling will lead to rampant racial profiling of Latinos and others who might be 'suspected' of being in Arizona without authorization. This isn't just a blow to our plaintiffs, but also a step back from our core values of equality under the law. We are committed to continuing the fight against this law in our case until it is permanently stuck down," said Linton Joaquin, general counsel of the National Immigration Law Center.
The decision is the latest legal move in Valle del Sol v. Whiting, a class action legal challenge to SB 1070 that was filed in May 2010. This challenge, which was brought by a coalition of civil rights organizations, includes civil rights claims against Arizona's racial profiling law that were not raised in the U.S. Supreme Court case over SB 1070 brought by the federal government. Plaintiffs include Jim Shee, an Arizona-born citizen of Spanish and Chinese descent who was racially profiled. "While today's ruling puts civil rights at risk, it does nothing to undermine our resolve to continue fighting until SB 1070 is struck down in its entirety," said Chris Newman, legal director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.
The coalition includes the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the ACLU of Arizona, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF); National Immigration Law Center (NILC); the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON); Asian Pacific American Legal Center (APALC); Asian American Justice Center (AAJC), both members of the Asian American Center for Advancing Justice; and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Law firms Roush McCracken Guerrero and Miller and Ortega, as well as Munger, Tolles and Olson and Altshuler Berzon LLP also provided support.
Founded in 1968, MALDEF is the nation's leading Latino legal civil rights organization. Often described as the "law firm of the Latino community," MALDEF promotes social change through advocacy, communications, community education, and litigation in the areas of education, employment, immigrant rights, and political access.

Every pool is constructed following the design and exceeding the specifications of a New York State Licensed Professional Engineer.
We use more rebar reinforcement and have thicker walls to allow you to have the most cubic feet of swimming area than any other pool contractor in the northeast. We only use grade 60 American made rebar which is much stronger than the 40 grade that the competition use.
The pool shell is constructed from Dry- Method Gunite concrete. This method allows us to mix the material on site without waste. We inject the minimal amount of water necessary to achieve hydration between the sand and cement. Any engineer will confirm that the less water you inject into concrete, the stronger it will be. We DO NOT use the less effective and cheaper WET MIX shot-crete concrete supplied by local redi-mix plants. This method prevents the pool contractor from having any control over his product. Our gunite swimming pool installation contractors use only the best materials for our customers.
Conklin Pools Inc. proudly provides gunite pool installations and services for the Dutchess County, Green County, Ulster County, Columbia County, Putnam County, Orange County, Hudson Valley and surounding areas.
"I moved to Pleasant Valley in Duchess County on June 1, 2016. Coming from Los Angeles California, I had already had one pool-building experience, and was keen to put in a pool on my new horse farm property. Jesse Conklin returned my initial inquiry promptly, and came out to the property to discuss all possibilities regarding the creation of a new pool. He could not have been more accommodating and informative. Jesse helped me through the paper work, the permits, and promised me (yes, promised!) that I would be swimming before the summer was over. He not only made good on that promise, but he and his crew created the most perfect pool for me and my family. They chose the perfect setting, they were consistent with their time-table, and whenever I had any question, Jesse was always always on hand with a prompt response. he and his crew created our perfect pool in less than a month. Every swim is, seriously, like a vacation in paradise. I wish we could do the whole experience all over again! This is the second pool I have had built in my life time, and I have to say that Conklin Pools will bring you the pool of your dreams, and beyond."
"When we finally decided to put a pool in at our home in Stone Ridge, NY, we talked to numerous friends who had put in pools and nobody was happy with their pool contractor. Even our home contractor couldn't recommend the person he had used to install his own pool. We were then referred to Jessie Conklin by our landscape designer. The reviews from his clients, with whom we spoke, seemed too good to be true. We decided to move forward with Jessie and we now have a dark bottom 36x14 gunite pool with blue stone coping and patio that is breathtaking. Its changed our life upstate and we cannot keep our friends and family away. In addition, Jessie recommended an autocover, which is one of the best decisions we could have made. It keeps the pool spotless, warm (we haven't used the heater all summer!) and most importantly, has allowed us to relax and not worry about our young children since they don't have the code to unlock the cover. Every suggestion Jessie made proved to be a good one, from the autocover to the 2 benches in the deep-end where we relax and chat with friends, drink wine and create a destination for our children when they are swimming the length of the pool. In addition to delivering a pool that exceeded our expectations in appearance and functionality, everything about the process with Jessie was seamless and easy. Jessie told us the pool would take 30 - 40 days from breaking ground to completion, and it did - we were shocked! There were no hidden fees and no surprises - the final price was in-line with the estimate and lastly, Jessie was (and continues to be) completely accessible, answering every call and tweaking every detail to deliver perfection. We cannot say enough good things about Jessie and Conklin Pools
"Before having our pool built, my wife and I did extensive research on the various types of residential pools as well as vetting many tri state area contractors. When it comes to a major project involving excavation, masonry, plumbing, and electrical work, you need a highly competent contractor. After doing our due diligence, Conklin Pools was the clear winner. No other contractor even came close. Jesse's aesthetic sensibilities and attention to detail assure you get what you want. The cost of the project was fair to both of us, and the overall value is the best you are going to get, anywhere. Quality was evident throughout the construction process. Conklin Pools committed to finish the job in a far shorter time period than did anyone else and they delivered! Jesse is onsite the entire time, and the project was on time and on budget. His crew is skilled, friendly, courteous, and maintains the jobsite in an orderly fashion. Aftercare is great. Jesse is always a quick call or text away. Bottom line: if you need to build a pool that you will enjoy forever, Conklin Pools is your contractor
"My swimming pool was built by a different contractor 3 years ago. When I opened my pool for the season, there were cracks everywhere and the tile and stones were falling off the walls. I called Conklin Pools and Jesse came out to look at it. After he scuba dove it and took some measurements, he told me he would be able to get it up and running like new. Needless to say, they did a phenomenal job and I would highly recommend Conklin Pools for any type of pool renovations.
"Right from the start and throughout our entire project, Jesse was there every step of the way. Whenever we had questions or other decisions to make, he always gave us a timely response. He listened to our wants and needs and had it all come together perfectly.

It has been almost a year since I have written anything in here due to my disgust in the advertising bull shit and spam that now fills my comments. I hate these.
Anyway, since I have been in here so little this post is an update for my own benefit, as I doubt anyone else would read it now days anyway......
In the past year I have settled into our own home again. It is so good to have a patch of dirt that belongs to us again and feel the security of knowing (a!l being well) that the place where I live is safe from some other person selling the property out from underneath us as happened previously in rented premises
My garden is growing and filling in with flowers. I get a lot of pleasure from being able to grow and harvest some of my own fruit, vegetables and herbs. I have chooks again, three lovely Australorp hens who give me enough eggs and some to share. There have been successes as well as failures with the selection and sometimes placement of plants, likewise with my dogs and chooks decimating certain plants and I have had to build fences and cages for some plants to try to protect them.
I have met up and spent time with old friends and family whom I love. It has shown me just how much we need others in our lives.
I am stepping out and making myself useful in the community which has led me to new contacts and friendships. One of these involvements has been with "The Wagga Sensory gardens " I started going there to try to help maintain and develop the garden. When I started in about March of this year it was a dry,dead, weedy place. I weeded, watered, carted mulch, scavenger for plants and made garden beds for them to go into. When the hot weather started I was skeptical that I would be able to continue. They got funding there for a 10 session horticultural course, which finished just a few weeks ago. Since then the gardens have come a long way in their development. We now have more garden beds, manpower came from the course participants and a watering system has been installed which covers much of the developed area of the gardens. I organized a group of people from the course to come along to the gardens with me on a Friday morning to work there. We sit and chat and have morning tea there as well.
As part of my involvement with the sensory garden I went along to another garden here in town, the demonstration gardens in Shaw street. This garden is a community style garden, run on a permaculture basis . I have learned quite a lot since going along there from the man and his wife who run it. I feel that more new friends have been made through my going there as well. They asked me to go on their commitee and I have agreed but as yet feel I haven't really co tributes much there. They have a wood fired bread oven built in there that I am interested playing in, I have made some nice DTE scones one morning there at one of their baki g days, but as far as yeast cookery goes, I have a lot to learn.
An old friend who I have been blessed with her return to my life has also gotten me involved with her work in Landcare. I have been going out to spend time with her and we plan seeds of local native plants and grasses that go back into the environment and to regional farms to restock their land with local species, sometimes even grown from seed collected on their own properties. I have learned to prick out miniscule seedlings that with love and care will turn into huge big eucalyptus trees, and tiny sedges that can be used to hold river and creek and dam banks together and which provide vital shelter for native birds and fish. I ha e planted wildflowers that blew away when it got windy but I still had their tiny seeds pop up and grow to a size, able to be handled and pricked out into larger pots to grow on. Worthy practices me thinks.
I have been back to the potter's club here, my old stomping ground. We just finished an exhibition in the local council art gallery here. I didn't really have a hand in the organization of it but the few items I put in for exhibition went well with a few nice sales of some of my work.
I guess there is quite a bit I have achieved during the past year. Personally and work wise.
I get bored, I get busy, I get cranky, I am happy with me, I have been broke, such is life eh!
I am still kicking and I am growing.
The coming year has some exciting events for me to move towards.
O.K. that's all this post.
Love Linda.

Impromptu graduation ceremony is lesson in kindness
When Calvin Caurthon Jr. saw the happy graduates filing out of Burgard High School's auditorium with their families, he knew something was wrong.
Calvin was supposed to graduate too, except he confused the ceremony's start time and showed up flanked by family members at 5 p.m. – an hour after Thursday's ceremony started.
Tears began streaming down his face, devastated that his family wouldn't be able to witness him walk across the stage.
"He instantly broke down in tears," said Calvin Caurthon Sr. "He really didn't know how to face his family with that devastating news."
As the rest of Burgard High School's approximately 60-person graduating class headed to the gymnasium for a reception, Calvin approached Burgard Principal Brian Wiesinger in hopes of at least picking up his diploma.
"I missed it," said Calvin, who spent the night before laying out his clothes for the ceremony.
"No, you didn't," Wiesinger responded.
"No, I missed it."
"Well, who is here with you?"
"My whole family is here."
The two-and-a-half year principal looked at Calvin, who had tears running down his cheeks, and Wiesinger couldn't just turn him away.
Instead, Wiesinger assembled the two assistant principals and a board member, who quickly obliged, and set up an impromptu ceremony for Calvin and his family.
They called Calvin's name across the stage, to the elation of his family members. But Wiesinger wouldn't let Calvin take off just yet. Wiesinger also recited an abbreviated version of the speech he delivered about an hour earlier to the graduating class, titled "Everybody is Something to Somebody."
The speech, which developed after Wiesinger came across a bumper sticker, delved into recognizing what a person's actions can mean to another.
For Wiesinger, the decision to re-enact the ceremony circled back, simply, to knowing how to treat one another.
"The fact they had all these people around them all these years, being something to them to get to graduation," the principal said. "Basically the idea is, it's their turn to go forward."
College is next for Calvin, who will be taking courses at Erie Community College South in automotive technology – something his father said he's always excelled at, adding with a laugh, that his son had already surpassed his own ability to work on modern vehicles.
Thanks to Wiesinger's quick thinking, what could have been a memory with regret became a positive, lasting one for all involved. For that, the elder Caurthon is grateful.
"Words can't explain the happiness and the joy, the satisfaction he gave the family," he said. "I've never seen nothing like that done for someone. I think it shows the type of person he is."

BOSTON — Even before the Bruins drafted Tyler Seguin second overall last June, general manager Peter Chiarelli and people around the Bruins drew the comparison between Seguin and Tampa Bay sniper Steven Stamkos.
Those comparisons have even made their way to the Sunshine State.
"I hear the comparisons, and he's a great skater, he's got a great shot, great vision," said Stamkos, the league's leading goal-scorer, after his team's morning skate in preparation to face the Bruins tonight. "It's nice for me to get compared to him. He's a great player. It's obviously a compliment."
Seguin has started his NHL career similarly to Stamkos, with limited ice time and a limited role. But the Bruins forward has shown flashes of his potential brilliance in putting up 5-4-9 totals in 23 games. He has heard the Stamkos comparisons as well.
"I try to be [like him]. He's definitely doing really good right now," said Seguin. "He's adapted to the league. I think it probably took him half a season his rookie year. And I'll probably be around there and hopefully keep on going."
Stamkos confirmed the notion that it took about 41 games to get settled in as an NHLer. He expects that once Seguin finds his stride in around that amount of time, he'll be able to reach his rookie-year potential.
"[After 41 games or so] that's when you start feeling comfortable, you start to realize you have that extra second, you're comfortable with your surroundings, your teammates, your coaching staff," said Stamkos. "You know what to expect. It took me that long. It took Vinny [Lecavalier] that long, from talking to him. There's an adjustment period for sure. You're coming from juniors straight to the NHL. So it's to be expected and there's nothing really to worry about. Once you get that confidence in, you start making the plays."
The next step in Seguin's growth and Stamkos' march to 50 goals in 50 games (he has 21 in 25 so far) takes place head to head tonight at TD Garden (7 p.m.).

NEW YORK (AP) — A healthy number of HBO subscribers were curious about Michael Douglas' performance as Liberace in the TV movie "Behind the Candelabra."
The Nielsen company said the 2.4 million people who tuned in to the movie's premiere over the Memorial Day weekend represented the network's biggest audience for one of its original movies since "Something the Lord Made" in 2004. Another 1.1 million people saw a repeat of the Liberace movie that began right after the first airing.
Dancing ruled over singing last week on the broadcast networks, depending on which audience you followed. ABC's two "Dancing With the Stars" airings last week had around 15 million viewers, the most-watched program on television. Among the younger demographic that are attractive to advertisers, however, NBC's "The Voice" was more popular.
Monday's version of the Univision telenovela "Amores Verdaderos" landed in the Top 10 among younger viewers last week. In an indication of how young the Spanish-language show's audience is, it ranked No. 39 among all viewers.
ABC won the week in prime time, averaging 6.5 million viewers, benefitting from "Dancing" and the finales of "Modern Family" and "The Middle." CBS was second with a 6.3 million viewer average, NBC had 5 million, Fox had 4.3 million, Univision had 3.5 million, Telemundo had 1.6 million, ION Television had 1.2 million and the CW had 760,000.
TNT was the week's most popular cable network, averaging 3.4 million viewers in prime time. USA had 2.7 million, the Disney Channel had 2.2 million, Fox News Channel had 1.9 million and TBS had 1.6 million.
NBC's "Nightly News" topped the evening newscasts with an average of 8 million viewers. ABC's "World News" was second with 7.4 million and the "CBS Evening News" had 6 million viewers.
For the week of May 20-26, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: "Dancing With the Stars Results," ABC, 15.2 million; "Dancing With the Stars," ABC, 14.97 million; "Criminal Minds," CBS, 11.01 million; "The Voice" (Monday), NBC, 10.81 million; "The Voice" (Tuesday), NBC, 10.18 million; "Modern Family," ABC, 10.01 million; "The Big Bang Theory," CBS, 9.06 million; "Hawaii Five-0," CBS, 9 million; NBA Playoffs: Indiana vs. Miami (Wednesday), TNT, 8.31 million; NBC News: Oklahoma Tornado Coverage (Tuesday, 8 p.m.), NBC, 8.16 million.

So it's another episode where the focal point is on shopping for merchandise and plugging stuff as well. Why am I not the least bit surprised. The show truly has run out of unique things to do. The self referencing ceased being clever about 12 episodes ago. Bring back the director from the first four episodes, and hopefully something in the end can be salvaged so this won't be so forgettable.

@Bayaob: And considering the cumlative effect of all these ads recently, coupled with my low tolerance for this kind of thing at the best of times, that was well over the line.
Anyway when the highlight of an episode is something that technically happens outside of it, you know you haven't enjoyed it that much.

More to the point, maybe I missed something without the subtitles, but the focus seemed to be on a shopping trip to Kyoto. Okay fine a school trip, but it kind of felt like it ended up the way most trips in the series do, moreso likely for me than for others.
Now instead of focusing on what I say about the episode, I'd like to hear more about what you feel about the episode, as this is the discussion about the episode, not about how people feel about how I feel about it. Let's keep this to the point from here on out please.
Also to the person who said I wrote a review of the episode and say I shouldn't have, perhaps I should rate this episode, considering I actually have only commented on this episode and not reviewed or rated it. I wasn't planning on it, but the way in which I was approached about this makes me feel it's time I gave a rating to an episode again.
I'm starting to get upset at the way people are confronting me over this. I feel I've been very courteous with people I know are outright attacking me as opposed to my comments on this episode, and I will continue to do so, but I'd appreciate it if people would be more open about the discussion of this episode and accept that not everybody is going to enjoy it as much as they do, or dislike it as much as some do. Thank You.

But if this goes on, measures will be taken. "Kaioshin-Sama's opinions about Lucky Star 21" is not the subject of discussion of this thread and as such you're all invited to bring it on PMs. If you feel that something is wrong, use the report button and explain your reasons. But please don't turn this place into a subtle battlefield. It's annoying for those who'd only wish to read about the actual episode.

I am more anxious about the next ep.
Btw Iam also a fighting game fan...I noticed this on Minoru
He looks similar Batsu from Rival schools, with that scar on his forehead. Before you say he's Bruce Shiraishi that turns to the HULK he's Batsu Shiraishi in my book.

I think konata is being kinda sweet in this ep, she alone realized kagami had sth on her mind (tsukasa, what kind of a sister are you....)
and misuzu who dyed her hair sitting besides her aunt who also dyed her hair XD
tuskasa being assulted by a pack of deers XD
cant stop laughing~~

What happened? Did I miss something?
Anyway, on topic.
First I'll start backwards.
Best. Lucky Channel. Ever. - Shiraishi going ballistic after spending two weeks in the wild and putting up with Akira-sama for over 18 weeks. LOL Amazing Ono managed to stay calm.
To sum things up for Lucky Channel:
- Table: 32,000 yen
- Background panel: 50,000 yen
- Broadcast camera: 375,000 yen
- Seeing Shiraishi going berserk: PRICELESS
And the preview for next episode was another AIR scene. And it's kinda eerie how my prediction became correct when Ono finally gave the fans what they want by ending the preview with "RAMEN SETTO!!!"
Now, on to the episode itself.
- The first 4 minutes was ok, neither attention grabbing nor overly boring.
- Minami-chan doing her "chest grabbing" thing - no matter how many times she does it, she's still moe
- Who on earth installed that spy camera in Tsukasa-chan's room? Come out so I can beat the crap out of him! (It can't be her father? Or maybe it's even Kona-chan??)
- Still, Tsukasa-chan managing to sleep through her alarm clock and her mom waking her up is incredibly adorable.
- Nice cameo by Patty.
- I know how Hiyorin feels, sometimes you get a great idea for a post/thread/letter/story/whatever, whenever you're taking a bath or in your dreams, and then when you get back to your desk to write it out, you can't exactly remember what it was that made you feel inspired.
Part two is basically a field-trip to Kyoto and Nara. These two cities are so gonna be flooded by otaku pilgrims for the next few weeks.
- Not sure what role Nanako-sensei assigned for Shiraishi, but looks like someone in charge of handling the garbage?
- Is it me or does that brown-haired girl sitting next to Nanako-sensei in the coach resemble Misuzu from AIR?
- Poor Tsukasa-chan, getting "gang-banged" by Nara deer for her cookies. (I'm still trying hard not to think too much, as this IS potential comiket doujin fodder. Poor Tsukasa-chan... )
- Miyuki: This is embarrassing, but I can't sleep soundly without my pillow.
- Tsukasa-chan: This is embarrassing, but I can't sleep soundly without my alarm clock.
- Kona-chan: This is embarrassing, but I can't sleep soundly without playing my NDS. ROFLMAO.
- Kona-chan using her latent Newtype (RM) powers to get her "Mega Lucky" coupon from the shrine.
- The school coach left without poor Shiraishi. This certainly puts the meaning of "Wawawa-wasuremono" in a new light.
- KAGAMIN DERE-DERE KAWAII!!! Phew, there I've said it. Man, like Kagamin, I kinda got me hopes up for a while after she received what looked like a love letter. Just this scene alone is worth the admission fee. I felt sorry for her when she looked so devastated at lunch afterwards.
- Poor Nanako-sensei, don't you just hate it when after a hard day's work or school, you come back to find that your internet connection is dead?

As long as someone does the pilgrimage while wearing either a black "Dash Cheese" hoodie or a white "DLG: Daisy Lovers Girls" hoodie (a little nod to another title that had some bits set in Kyoto), I don't care what the L*S fans do.

On the other hand, private high schools with a large ratio of children from affluent households (meaning more "donations" from their families) get to go overseas such as Guam, Saipan, Los Angeles, Rome, etc. etc.

One thing I've notice is that this anime is special in that there are so many raw watchers; usually by the time the subs is out almost everyone has already enjoyed the show and the discussion has dried up. I usually wait until the end of the week for my ref list, but I think I will do a new strategy.
The reason I wanted to do these lists is to have people talking; asking question about the references or adding/correcting them. It seemed that when I published a huge list, people tend to not wanting to comment much on it... too much information at once? One of the great thing about L*S is the various references to get you interested parts of Japan you may not have noticed before... and I really want to keep that spirit alive here in this forum.
So here's my new strategy for the list - I'm going to publish a few item each day so that people can comment on them if they wanted to. I am also going to do so over the course of the week so there's always something new to chat about. At the end of the week, I'll combine the posts and repost them to the Cultural Ref list. I hope that'll be okay with everyone.

Aye, what kj1980 says... going to Kyoto is almost a universal field trip for all highschoolers... its like going to your State Capital except you'd stay there a few days. Going to Okinawa is pretty popular as well (especially with their spectacular sea aquarium). Calling those a reference to anything is about like saying, "look, they're using sidewalks!!! They did that in X!"
I try to wait to comment because the raw dialog can be trippy enough that I think many people draw the wrong conclusions by watching them. I've been caught flatfooted 2 or 3 times by a sketch that I thought was one thing and it turned out to be another. Also my bandwidth just kind of limits excessive raw acquisition.
It *looks* like this episode is mostly a fairly classical "trip to Kyoto" livened up by the personalities of these particular girls. I won't decide whether it suffers from "kyoani product contamination" until I see the whole episode.
My decision matrix is pretty much: will someone totally unfamiliar with a blatant insertion just laugh at the overlaying material or will it be a "wtf was that? O.o" -- it is pretty much a done deal that L*S has been trampled to some extent to leverage the 'haruhi' energy stream and I just thank the gods that Azumanga Daioh or Ichigo Masimaro wasn't caught by a similar whirlwind when they were airing. Yes, I think SHnY is the best thing since the introduction of the wheel but then I don't like chocolate in my okonomiyaki either.

I really enjoyed this episode, from Tsukasa's unluckiness during the whole school trip to Kyoto, to Konata's thoughtfulness in trying to cheer Kagamin up. As far as I can tell from the raw, there were hardly any self-references to the previous works except during the preview. This episode goes to show that even without any references to Kyoani's previous works, the series can still stand on its own thanks to the strength of the characters.
Would have liked to see what the rest of Yutaka and her classmates were up to during the school trip (I miss Misao's voice - she doesn't have a single line this episode!).
Why do you say that Kanata will appear in the next episode? Was there something I missed in the raw?

Jimi Hendrix Lost Guitar Found - And Up For Auction!
The guitar Jimi Hendrix famously burnt on stage before burning his own hands has been found - in a garage.
The guitar is a 1965 Fender Stratocaster, Serial No 109657.
The owner, Tony Garland was Jimi's PR officer and picked up the guitar after the fire. Its now up for auction and could fetch up to half a million pounds.
Jimi Hendrix came to England in 1966 after being discovered by Chas Chandler at the cafe Wha in New York. With him that night was the young press oficer, Tony Garland.
While Chas stayed in New York doing deals Tony returned to England and in September 1966 met Jimi and Chas at Heathrow and persuaded the immigration officials to let this young 'songwriter' in to collect some royalties. After helping audition the band that became the Jimi Hendrix experience Tony Garland became general office manager for the Anim group.
Some Photos (click to enlarge):
Hendrix played the Finsbury Astoria on the Walker brothers tour on 31st March 1967 and he and Chas decided that on that opening night of the tour Jimi should do something spectacular with his act. Tony went and bought some lighter fluid and the the rest is history. Jimi was reprimanded and then packaged off to hospital Tony and Chas went to Legends and celebrated.
When Hendrix did the same trick at the Monterey festival in America, later that year, that was it - it became an iconic moment in the history of rock'n'roll and cemented Hendrix's reputation on both sides of the Atlantic.

The Finsbury Astoria guitar came back to the office and then when the management changed their offices it ended up at Noel Redding's house, after that Tony took it and other office items to his own flat and then to his parents and ultimately his Nephew's house where it remained until 2007.
Now, the guitar - known as the FAB (Finsbury Astoria Burnt) - is up for auction by Fame Bureau. This is the chance for a lucky (and very, very, very rich) bidder to win the first guitar Hendrix ever set on fire...
The guitar comes with a signed and witnessed letter from Tony Garland, a DVD of the Fame Bureau interview with him and guitar experts and journalists from Guitar and Bass magazine, the ceremonial re-stringing of the guitar and photos of Tony and Jimi together in London.

Fender 60's Stratocaster - only £349

One-of-a-Kind Public-Private Partnership Makes New
Weather Station Possible
DENVER-November 10, 2009-For the first time in more than a
decade, the National Weather Service is able to record
up-to-the-minute weather data in central Denver, thanks to the
installation of a new official weather station on the City Park
Golf Course. The new weather station was made possible by a
public-private partnership that is the first of its kind in the
The collaboration involved the Denver Museum of Nature &
Science; Vaisala, a global leader in the manufacture of
extremely accurate weather instruments; the City of Denver's Parks
& Recreation Department; the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA); the National Weather Service (NWS); 7News
Chief Meteorologist Mike Nelson; Colorado State Climatologist Nolan
Doesken; Elcar Fence; and Mercury Electric.
"The Museum was pleased to be a part of establishing and
supporting this new facility, especially as it allows us to
re-establish the climate record for central Denver, data that has
been missing for more than 10 years," said Dave Noel, Vice
President of Information Technology at the Museum. "Plus, it's
great science, and that's what we're about!"
The new weather station is one of just two NWS weather stations
in Denver city limits that record data in real time. The other
weather station is located 18 miles from downtown at Denver
International Airport, and provides the official National Weather
Service records for the city of Denver. From 1948 until the
opening of DIA in 1995, the official weather readings for Denver
were taken at the old Stapleton Airport site. When the official
weather station was moved to DIA, it left a gap in the NWS data
network for central Denver.
The idea for the new weather station was first proposed by
Nelson, who had long hoped for an official NWS weather station
somewhere near downtown Denver to replace the one at Stapleton. But
finding funding, an appropriate location, and access to necessary
technology infrastructure to support a new weather station proved
After several months of discussions between Nelson, Vaisala, the
Museum, NOAA, the National Weather Service, and the Denver Parks
& Recreation Department, a solution was reached. Vaisala
generously donated all the instruments and project services
required for the new weather station to the Museum. The Museum now
owns and operates the weather monitoring facility under special
operating agreements with the City & County of Denver and the
NOAA/National Weather Service.
"Not only is it important for Vaisala to be a responsible global
citizen but also a good neighbor. By supporting this project with
products and solutions, we can make the micro-climates of the
greater Denver area that much more understood," said Scott
Sternberg, the president of Vaisala, Inc., who is based at
Vaisala's North American headquarters in Louisville, CO.
After an exhaustive search, the National Weather Service
approved a site for the new weather station adjacent to the 12th
tee complex at City Park Golf Course, and the installation was
completed. Elcar Fence donated the chain link fence that surrounds
the weather station, and Mercury Electric wired the site to provide
Weather data collected by the weather station includes wind speed
and direction, temperature (actual and wind chill), barometric
pressure, visibility, relative humidity, dew point, heat index, and
precipitation measured in the last hour, in the last day and in the
last year.
The Museum receives data from the weather station via radio
signal, and then forwards it to the National Weather Service. Data
from the station can be viewed on the Museum's website, in the Today's Weather
section under Plan Your Visit, on the National Weather Service
website at http://www.crh.noaa.gov/den/
, or the NOAA Weather radio station located in Denver at 162.55
Mhz. The official NOAA station ID is DMNC2. The NWS transmits
data from the weather station to regional and national data
information sources, and it will become part of the climatological
record of the United States.
"This new highly accurate weather station in the heart of Denver
will provide more precise data, helping us better predict short
term weather and track our changing climate," said Nelson.
This private-public partnership is the first of its kind in the
nation, bringing a new highly accurate weather station on line with
minimal taxpayer expense. It is a model the National Weather
Service hopes to use again in the future in other areas.
"This truly unique partnership has allowed continuation of the
historical record of weather and snow measurements in Denver.
The cooperation of multiple levels of government, the media and
private industry can serve as a model in expanding observational
networks, which are a critical backbone of our ability to study and
better understand climate changes," said Lynn Maximuk, Director of
the NOAA National Weather Service Central Region.

Ancient rock carvings stolen from sacred US sites
BISHOP, California – Rock carvings that graced a sacred American Indian site in California's mountains for thousands of years have fallen prey to modern thieves armed with power saws.
At least four petroglyphs were hacked from lava cliffs in the Eastern Sierra, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.
Visitors to the area, known as Volcanic Tableland, discovered the theft and reported it to the federal Bureau of Land Management on Oct. 31.
"This was the worst act of vandalism ever seen" on the public land administered by the local BLM field office, agency archaeologist Greg Haverstock told the newspaper.
The thieves must have used ladders, electric generators and power saws. In addition to the four carvings that were stolen, one was defaced with deep saw cuts on three sides. Another was removed but apparently broke during the theft and was left propped against a boulder near a visitor parking lot.
More than 3,500 years ago, Native Americans carved pictures of hunters, deer and other animals and geometric and other designs into the volcanic escarpment. The images adorn hundreds of lava boulders.
The petroglyphs are probably worth only about $500 to $1,500 on the illegal art market but are priceless to American Indians, authorities said.
"We still use this sacred place as a kind of church to educate tribal members and children about our historical and spiritual connections," Paiute tribal historic preservation officer Raymond Andrews said. "So our tribal elders are appalled by what happened here."
The site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The BLM is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to arrests. A first-time felony conviction for damaging or removing petroglyphs can carry a one-year prison sentence and a $20,000 fine.
Meanwhile, federal officials and American Indian leaders plan to mark the damage with signs noting that it was done by, as Haverstock put it, "malicious, selfish individuals."
