NBA Draft Night 2017 didn't take long to get crazy. There had already been a trade atop the draft with the 76ers and Celtics swapping top three picks. All week there were rumblings that more moves were coming and that top shelf talent like Chicago's Jimmy Butler and Indiana's Paul George would be changing jerseys. Then a major chip fell:
My Wolves splashed! As far back as last year's draft there were rumors that Chicago and Minnesota were close to pulling the trigger on a trade like this. It took a full year, but it finally came to pass. Coach Thibs stole one of his former players from the Bulls and handed over some building blocks in a "win now" move. And the NBA is sent spinning again.
The Wolves were streaky last year, but showed definite signs of improvement. Drafting Kris Dunn threw the future of Ricky Rubio into question, but Rubio had one of his best seasons ever. Meanwhile, Dunn struggled mightily in his limited minutes (while 3rd PG Tyus Jones showed some real flash at times). Wiggins and Towns were solid all year and Lavine was showing some breakout potential before he tore his ACL. What the team was really missing was a veteran scorer who could also provide some legit defensive play. Thibs seemed convinced that Jimmy Butler was that missing piece, but surely the Bulls would demand a king's ransom for him, right? It was always somewhat assumed that Wiggins plus parts was the asking price. Still, when the trade was finally announced, it was the 7 pick/Lavine/Dunn for Butler. No Wiggins! I was a little worried as that deal started popping up on Twitter. But then it came out that the Bulls' 16th pick was also part of the deal and everything changed. This was a lopsided deal in favor of the Wolves.
Here's the thing about the NBA in 2017: the Golden State Warrior exist. In the '14-'15 season, they won it all. In the '15-'16 season, the Warriors posted a best-ever 73-9 regular season record, but ultimately collapsed in the Finals to LeBron James and the Cavs. After that failure, they added Kevin Durant – one of the top 3 players in the NBA – and gave up very little to get him. From that moment, it was almost assumed they would win the title in '16-'17 – and they did, losing only 1 playoff game in the process.
All of that led up to this off season where teams needed to decide how they were going to compete with one of the most dominant NBA teams ever. How do you beat a super team? With another super team? The Cavs are clearly the next best team, having three extremely good players in James/Irving/Love, but they just got beat. So do they add another all star? Actually, they started by firing their GM. Not a good look. How about the Celtics? They were angling for Jimmy Butler, but lost out. Will they add a big chip like Paul George? The Spurs? Will they move Lamarcus Aldridge and try to add a piece? That's not really their style, is it? Who else even has a prayer?
What's really fascinating to me is how teams decide if they should try to win now against teams like the Warriors and Cavs or if they should quietly build a young core and time it to explode as the Warriors and Cavs are aging out. The problem is that some teams might feel like their young core could compete now with a little help and then they might mortgage part of their future to take their shot now against an almost unbeatable superteam. The question boils down to this: how much do you believe in your young stars? For Coach Thibs – he believes.
By all accounts, as the dust settles a bit, the Wolves should be a near-lock to end their playoff drought next season (the longest active playoff drought in the league). That alone is exciting. But Coach Thibs wouldn't have made this deal if he didn't think this group could actually challenge in the West at some point in the next few years. He's cutting the fuse on this bomb and accelerating the timetable. It's a bold move, but when you're giving up the 7th draft pick in a year when there are 6 players considered sure things plus an underwhelming PG and an injured sparkplug guard – you don't hesitate.
I'll surely miss Zach Lavine. He was a great player and a great guy. I'll be rooting for him to splash in Chicago. That's the one bittersweet part of this deal for me.
But I'm excited about the future of the Timberwolves with Butler on board along with Towns and Wiggins! It's been a long road since Garnett/Spreewell/Casell lost to the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals in 2004. We've suffered through a LOT of tough times. We've watched Al Jefferson and Kevin Love move through as our franchise stars without reaching the playoffs. We've endured David Kahn's incompetence (which cost us Steph Curry). We've celebrated Kevin Garnett and Flip Saunders returning to the franchise and then mourned the Flip's death and seen KG retire in a huff. Has it all been building to this moment?
I sure hope so. I can't wait for next season!

The Role of "Lead Pastor" Part 2
Yesterday I posted an article about the key responsibilities of a lead pastor.
I mentioned that the lead pastor of the 21st century has four key roles:
1. The primary pulpit communicator.
2. The primary caster and communicator of the vision
3. The primary leader developer
4. The primary missiologist
If you haven't done so, please read that post before reading the remainder of this one.
Today, allow me to expand on each of these four:
I am complementarian in my theology, so will speak of He as the lead pastor.
1. The primary pulpit communicator
I believe that the lead pastor leads the church via the weekend preaching. He teaches, sets an example, shares his life, creates the culture and speaks to where the church is going in the future through his regular preaching.
He leads the church through the pulpit, but not only through the pulpit. What happens between Sundays is just as important (if not more) as what happens on Sundays. Nonetheless, Sunday/Saturday is when (more than likely) the largest group of people will be present for him to influence for the kingdom.
I believe a church does well when there is one clearly identifiable preacher who carries the bulk of the pulpit load. I know there are churches that are moving toward team teaching where there are multiple communicators who share the preaching responsibility; however, I don't personally think that is the best way to go about it.
Nor do I think that a lead pastor should burn himself out by preaching 52 Sundays a year. I would not go so far as to state exactly how many Sundays he should occupy the pulpit, for he does need a few Sundays off each year if, for no other reason than to allow other aspiring teachers/preachers to hone their craft.
2. The primary caster and communicator of the vision
"Where there is no vision the people perish" (Proverb 29:18 KJV). Spinning off this, someone said, where there is no vision the people find another parish. Sad, but true. People want to know what their church is all about, where it is headed and what kind of influence and impact their leaders are dreaming of, praying about and planning toward. Vision needs to be caught from the Lord by the leader. Then that leader needs to cast, communicate, coordinate and coach people toward that God-given vision. This takes a good deal of time and focused intentionality as people forget the big picture and tend to make activities and programs the end rather than the means to the end.
3. The primary leader developer
There are many dying and plateaued churches out there and one of the significant contributors to this is the fact that there is no thought-through plan and process to identify, train and place new leaders. I run into this all the time in my travels.
The lead pastor needs to have a burden for younger leaders who aspire to and are gifted to lead. He doesn't need to do all the developing himself, but he does need to lead the charge in this and have a few he himself is pouring into (2 Timothy 2:2).
Leadership development should be one of the core values of every church that seriously takes Jesus' command to preach the gospel and make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20). The rest of my life is dedicated to helping equip and empower the next generation of leaders in local churches by coaching, teaching and writing.
4. The primary missiologist
The lead pastor needs to carve out chunks of time to be out in the community mixing it up with people the church is trying to reach. He should be discovering and sharing what the target group values, the music they listen to, the books they read, the magazines they subscribe to and the hobbies they have.
He needs to acquaint himself with the pain, the problems and the frustrations that the average person they are trying to reach is dealing with. He doesn't need to necessarily be a gifted evangelist, but he does need to deeply love and care about lost people and be gaining understanding in how to be relevant in reaching them with the gospel. He needs to understand the culture and know the Bible says about the culture. See 1st Chronicles 12:32 in this regard.
All of the above should be accomplished through a team of people who complement the lead pastor's gifts, temperament and passion. It's too much for one man to carry alone (Exodus 18:13-27). No man has all the gifts, or enough time, to do everything by himself. Through the years many have tried, but their track record is not good.
So, you can see how the above four responsibilities are pretty major and constitute a full- time job. To be effective, these are to be accomplished as the pastor is led by the Lord, empowered by the Holy Spirit and honoring the one who called and sent him into vocational ministry.

ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST PARISH – St. John the Baptist Parish property owners with flood insurance policies whose homes or other structures were damaged during Hurricane Isaac have an additional 60 days to file claims for their flood-related losses. This means most policyholders have until April 22 to complete their proof of loss claims.
The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) usually requires claims to be reported within 60 days from the date of loss. Four extensions have been granted. With the latest 60-day extension on flood insurance claims, St. John the Baptist Parish residents have 240 days from the date of their insured losses to submit a claim, known as Proof of Loss. Hurricane Isaac first made landfall in Louisiana on Aug. 28, 2012, with heavy rainfall and flooding occurring within several days before and after it hit. For this reason the date of loss varies for property owners.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) administers the program.
"A major storm like Isaac can make it difficult for survivors to gather information that will help adjusters determine their flood insurance loss," said Federal Coordinating Officer Gerard M. Stolar of FEMA. "This extension eases the burden on folks who haven't yet filed their proof of loss, and we continue to urge them to do so as soon as possible."
Failure to submit the proof of loss could cause policyholders to miss out on benefits from their flood insurance policy, NFIP specialists said.
Policyholders with questions about flood insurance or concerns about their claims may, call FEMA program experts at 1-866-331-1679 or 1-866-330-7286, or visit www.floodsmart.gov.

I've been looking at PACT very closely these couple of days. There is potential in this company and it should do very well in the long run. The stock price is at a very low point right now. I bought some shares at $7.60 yesterday. Today it is going up.
There are risks involved. This stock has a history of wild fluctuations. Play at your own risk.

Choosing A Fence Style For Your Home and Yard
Published: 18th June 2015
Views: N/A
Before you purchase and install a fence question the motives for adding a fence to the yard. Are you adding a fence to keep the dog from relieving himself in the neighbor's yard? Then perhaps a chain link fence is the route for you. Are you installing fencing for pool safety? If this is the case you might be looking into a more decorative black aluminum pool fence. If privacy is your concern wooden privacy fencing is available.
The material for the fence is an important piece of the equation. Everyone thinks of the perfect little white picket fence however, do they consider the upkeep needed to paint a wooden fence white each and every season? I am assuming that for the most part they don't. If you are going for the quaint little white picket fence consider vinyl. Wooden fences hold up well once sealed but will take upkeep every few years to keep them looking fresh. A good power washing and sealing stain can do the trick however maintenance is required. If looking for maintenance free fencing materials choose wrought iron, aluminum, chain link or vinyl. These options require a general light spray cleaning to look fresh season after season.
If you are looking to fence in your entire yard and cost is a factor you can consider mixing materials. Chain link fencing is inexpensive and can be used to enclose an entire backyard for a lot less than aluminum or wood. Use your money wisely and place the fencing that is meant for aesthetics at the front of the house. Use a combination maybe a vinyl picket fence in the front, where it is seen from the road, and chain link in the back, hidden from street view.
Before purchasing any type of fencing talk with local municipalities and your homeowners associations. Some dictate that certain fence types must have the face side (the pretty side) of the fence face outward. Some dictate that the posts can't face public property. I have heard of some home owners associations that do not allow fencing at all on the property as it distracts from the open air feeling of the community. Before outlaying the funds consider the rules and regulations governing fencing in your area.
Are you going to hire a professional to install the fence or try to do it yourself? This will play a role in the type of material you choose for installation as well. Certain fencing is more difficult to install than others. Wood fence is fairly simple to install where as aluminum fence is best installed by a licensed fencing contractor.
Once the fence has been chosen and installed make sure to take time to blend it into the landscaping. Fencing can stick out like a sore thumb if homeowners don't take the time to make the fencing a part of the yard. You may do this with stain on wooden fence, crawling plants with chain link fencing or pretty shrubs and flowering plants that are perfect with vinyl picket fencing. Your landscape and fencing should be used as an extension of the curb appeal of your home. With the right material, professional installation, up keep and blended landscaping yours should like it was always there.
Forever-Fence offers a variety of aluminum pool fencing options including ornamental and decorative fence for homeowners to choose from. You will find a variety of fencing options online at

Please scan the photos so we can display them on Friday and Saturday night at our events. If you bring pictures to share, please pick them up after the Banquet—we can't return them to you. We are looking forward to seeing "classic" copies of the Chronicle, favorite group or team pictures, etc. You may send the pictures to Bonnie Baker Kelly @ 1012 Harrington Dr. CH, 61821 or firstname.lastname@example.com or Kay CLabaugh McGuire @ 112-D Whitehall Ct, Urbana, 61801 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Remember to order your booklet on the Reunion Registration form. The cost is $9.00. You may order a booklet even if you are unable to attend. See registration form for details and costs for the booklet. We would like a CONDENSED version of your life the past 50 years—in a FEW paragraphs: things like significant events, experiences or accomplishments, family, occupation(s)/work, places lived, interests and hobbies. It would be the easiest for LEONA PEDIGO KUHN who has volunteered to collate and enter the information if you could use the Times Roman font in size 12. If you don't use the computer, just type or legibly write your information. You can send it in anytime but, Leona and her committee MUST have your write-up NO LATER THAN July 1, 2009 so they will have time to complete the booklet—earlier is better!
Thanks to our own Fred Schooley, our class now has our own Maroon knit shirt with our own '50th logo! These Charles River SPORT Polo shirts are a beautiful maroon with the custom designed logo by our own Larry Weatherford. The shirts come in Women's S, M, L, XL and Men's S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL. They are $30 each. Please use the order form in this mailing—and make your check out to "'59 Shirt". The payment for shirts MUST be a separate check from your Reunion check, but it may be sent in the same envelope.
Several options are available—we have reserved a block of rooms at our reunion central hotel—the I-Hotel. There are 30 rooms @ $119 and will be held for us until July 1st. We also have blocks at Hilton Garden Inn 20 rooms @ $119 and they will be held until July 1st, and Homewood SUITES 10 @ $129 for a king studio and 5 @$139 for one bedroom Suite—they also will be held until July 1st. The Hawthorne Suites, in addition to the three others mentioned are centrally located to our event venues.
The final mailing was sent in late April, but all of the information about events, etc., is also on this web site. However, if you have questions don't hesitate to call our reunion chairperson Kay Clabaugh McGuire at 217-344-1678 or email her at email@example.com. It will help us immensely if you can send in your registration form and check sooner rather than later. We have about 200+ people who have indicated they are planning on coming, so it will take the various committees a large amount of time to get everything coordinated. The sooner we know our numbers, the easier our job and the better our reunion for all! Remember the ABSOLUTE deadline for accepting reservations and checks is July 1, 2009. If you must cancel your reservations for events AFTER you have already sent your payment to us, we will refund your money if you notify Kay no later than July 8, 2009 – contact Kay Clabaugh McGuire at 217-344-1678 or email her at email@example.com to work it out.
The prices for the main events (Fri. eve., Sat. bus tour, Sat. eve. Sun. brunch) all have been reduced because of the generosity of about a dozen classmates who most graciously gave monetary gifts, as well as funds raised by class donations at the 45th reunion. On behalf of all of us who will enjoy the Reunion, we extend to each one of you our deepest gratitude. We offer a special THANK YOU to the many classmates who have helped, are helping, and will help with the Reunion, to those who have sent or brought items to display, to those who have made donations, given much encouragement, many good ideas and their time and effort. We could not have done our job without all of you helping. We are very appreciative of the enthusiasm, interest, excitement, effort, gifts, and help from so many of you. A special thanks to so many of you for planning to come to the reunion and the good wishes and greetings from the others unable to attend. THANK YOU ALL! From: Kay, and your committee.

Quantitative trait loci, genes, and polymorphisms that regulate bone mineral density in mouse.

Genomics 2009 May; 93(5):401-14.
This is an in silico analysis of data available from genome-wide scans. Through analysis of QTL, genes and polymorphisms that regulate BMD, we identified 82 BMD QTL, 191 BMD-associated (BMDA) genes, and 83 genes containing known BMD-associated polymorphisms (BMDAP). The catalogue of all BMDA/BMDAP genes and relevant literatures are provided. In total, there are substantially more BMDA/BMDAP genes in regions of the genome where QTL have been identified than in non-QTL regions. Among 191 BMDA genes and 83 BMDAP genes, 133 and 58 are localized in QTL regions, respectively. The difference was still noticeable for the chromosome distribution of these genes between QTL and non-QTL regions. These results have allowed us to generate an integrative profile of QTL, genes, polymorphisms that determine BMD. These data could facilitate more rapid and comprehensive identification of causal genes underlying the determination of BMD in mouse and provide new insights into how BMD is regulated in humans.

The Inauguration of the Child Development Film Archives. Final Report.
Popplestone, John A.; McPherson, Marion White
The cataloging of films acquired by the Child Development Film Archives disclosed approximately 3500 separate units, or 804,232 feet of footage. An inventory sheet has been completed for each film which provides a record of the content of each cinema, and collectively, constitute a table of contents to the total collection. Variables specified on inventory sheets include: children--number, sex, age, ethnicity, amount and nature of clothing, biopathology, and psychopathology; adults--number, sex, and interaction with children; and animals--number and species. For each category there is an enumeration of the specific activities depicted. The milieu in which the action occurs is identified, as well at the equipment used. Changes in content within a film are recorded and the resulting variations in subjects are noted. Identifying data also included on inventory sheets include title, purpose, presence of a sound track, existence and location of relevant documents, whether the pictures are chromatic or achromatic, notes regarding visual (and audio) clarity, names of the members of the cast and of institutions, length of the footage, its width, projection time, container label, and storage location. Each film has been cleaned and rated for physical condition. The collection is currently housed in Pierce Library at the University of Akron. (Author/JEG)

Tech Data launches two new schemes for Cisco SMB resellers
Tech Data has unveiled two new programmes, SMB Accelerator and SMB engage to drive sales of Cisco SMB products.
Tech Data has launched two new reseller schemes to help drive Cisco products to small to medium businesses. The two schemes, SMB Accelerator and SMB Engage provide a market development fund directly related to SMB products and an advanced online resource for Cisco SMB resellers.
SMB Accelerator is an incentive programme designed to provide marketing funds for resellers. By selling certain listed products from low-end switches, routers, wireless or security products, resellers can then receive marketing funds to spend on promotional activities.
Dorian Breakspear-Coyle, Cisco sales manager for Tech Data FZ-LLC explained that although the programme has been tried before, Cisco has asked Tech Data to drive the scheme this time, to try and increase the uptake.
"I don't think that it was focused on in any particular way [before], and this is one of the reasons why Cisco has chosen Tech Data, because of our focus on being able to deliver," he explained.
So far Tech Data has 300 authorised Cisco resellers signed up for the scheme.
The second initiative is an online portal to provide support to Cisco SMB resellers. SMB Engage is designed to provide everything that a reseller needs to help them sell, including online training for Cisco certifications, sales support, news, marketing collaboration materials, competitive information, product positioning and comparison and selling arguments for Cisco products.
The vendor already has similar portals with distributors in Europe, but it is the first time it has been tried here. Tech Data worked closely with Cisco to develop the site, which is exclusive to Tech Data customers. So far around 50 companies have signed up for access.
"It is a perfect way to grow the SMB market," said Breakspear-Coyle. "It is a very competitive market, and resellers need to know how to sell the products, there is sales support for SMB solutions, which is superb if you haven't got experience in a particular technology. As a whole the portal is very, very good."
The portal, which is hosted on Cisco's web site, will also carry exclusive SMB bundles and enable preferential pricing with local training partners. Both Cisco and Tech Data will be able to track usage of the site, to see the response from resellers.
The SMB market is an increasing focus for the vendor, Breakspear-Coyle explained: "The programme is there to feed the existing authorised resellers. This is a growth area for Cisco in this territory, and they want to get serious about these particular segments of the market," he said.

GAYLORD — City council will decide Monday whether to approve or deny a tax abatement for the Friendship Shelter's proposed housing project in town.
The Friendship Shelter is seeking a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) to help it establish an eight-unit housing complex at 700 W. Petoskey St. for individuals with a history of chronic homelessness. The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA), which awarded the Friendship Shelter a $500,000 grant for the project, requires a PILOT on such developments. The tax abatement would be approximately $449 a year.
The development would be permanent housing for single men or women with a history of chronic homelessness due to job loss or low income, disabilities, poor credit or other factors. Tenants will be screened for violent, sexual or drug offenses. There will be an on-site manager/counselor to assist residents and there will be access to shelter case workers.
Residents will pay 30 percent of their income in rent.

step : Removing the Brake Pads and the Rotor (2:40)
- For the inner pad, you should be able to simply pull it out
- To get the outer one out, you use your hammer and you want to hit diagonally and they come out
- Place the caliper above and secure it with a wire-tie or something similar. You don't want to just let it hang down because there is a chance you can rupture your hose.
- With the caliper out of the way, simply remove the rotor
step : Replacing the Brake Rotor (3:25)
- Put the brake rotor back on and then you want to push your piston back in to your caliper
- As you tighten the C-Clamp, the piston goes down in to the caliper
- Remove the C-clamp
step : Replacing the Brake Pads (4:01)
- Your inner pad has the clamps to secure-just put in to the caliper and push it in
- Your outer pad goes right in. While making sure you have your bolts out of the way, you push them down like that with the caliper right in
- After the caliper is in, start your bolts back in and, once again, that's a T47 Torx
- Push on your bolts and start them
- Tighten up these bolts to about 35 pounds
step : Replacing the Front Wheel (5:57)
- Replace the wheel into the vehicle. Use the air wrench to start the lug nuts a little bit, and you want to torque your lug nuts to about 100 foot pounds
- Make sure that before you drive your car, you get in and pump the brake pedal a few times until you make it feel solid
- When you push the piston back in to the caliper you'll need to work it back against the discs
- Before you road test your vehicle, just make sure that the brakes are holding the car in gear
- Do a stop from 5 mph and 10 mph just to make sure that everything is working before you get it out on the road
Tools needed for replacement:
- Floor Jack
- Jack Stands
- Large C-Clamp
- Torque Wrench
- Flat Blade Screwdriver
- 19mm Socket
- T47 Torx Socket

BMW ORACLE Racing, is employing the best possible technology in its racing yacht design development. In order to study the dynamics of flow, the design team has selected the CD adapco Group, the leading global provider of computational engineering solutions, to provide CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software.
For this demanding work we require precision, production capability and some specific functionality only found in CD adapco Groups software. We work the software hard to achieve an optimal design for our sailors to take into battle for the Americas Cup, says Ian Burns, BMW ORACLE Racing, Design Coordinator. By working alongside CD adapco Group we gain a great advantage from having the right tool combined with a great team. We all share a common goal: success.
BMW ORACLE Racing will use the CD adapco Groups CFD software solvers, pre- and post-processing software and CAD packages to analyze hydrodynamic flow around the hull and the interaction of all yacht components affecting performance, including the rudder, keel and winglets. Analysis will be carried out to measure forces for different designs under different sailing conditions and will include a sinkage and turn prediction as well as a simulation of the unsteady wave breaking near the hull.
The CD adapco Group is very proud and excited to be an Official Supplier of BMW ORACLE Racing. It provides us with the opportunity to assist with the development of a competitive design and contribute to improving the teams performance on the race course, says Didier Halbronn, Vice President of Sales, CD adapco Group.

Singer Tiffany Houghton Dishes On Her New Christmas Song!
We're so excited about Tiffany Houghton's new holiday song called "Hello Sailor"!
The songstress chatted with us about the meaning behind the track and it will make you melt!
"I had a great grandfather that was in The Navy and I've always loved hearing the story about when he came home," she tells us.
"My grandpa and his brother were on their way home from school and ran through the front door and their father, my great grandfather, wrapped them in a bear hug. They were so surprised because he had been reported missing in the war. It was quite the reunion."
Tiffany teamed up with Nash Overstreet, with whom she wrote "Blame It On The Snow" with.
"The last time Nash (Overstreet) and I wrote a Christmas song, we made my favorite song I've ever put out! I love Christmas music. We had a fun time eating Christmas cookies and thinking of Navy puns. He is so talented," Tiffany says.

Taste of Country's Jason Aldean Contest Winner Announced
Carrie Town of Hudson, Mich. is a happy woman. She was chosen as the winner of our Jason Aldean contest that ran in the month of August, meaning next month she'll be headed to Los Angeles. Town and her guest will be given airfare, three nights in a hotel, concert tickets and a chance to meet Aldean before his My Kinda Party Tour show at the Gibson Ampitheatre on October 27.
Town tells Taste of Country she's a big Aldean fan and respects his background and his music. She does her best to see the 'Dirt Road Anthem' singer every time he's in town. "[I] have been to numerous concerts but to actually meet him would be the ultimate treat!" she says.
She goes on to describe how being the lucky one chosen to meet Aldean was a little overwhelming: "Disbelief quickly followed by absolute joy!" Congratulations, Carrie. We can't promise he'll sing your favorite song, 'Amarillo Sky,' but maybe you'll have a chance to plead your case before the show. Just don't do anything we wouldn't do.
If you're blue about not being selected as the winner, cheer yourself up by entering this month's Taylor Swift contest. The winner will receive tickets, meet and greets, airfare and hotel accommodations for Swift's November 5 concert in Houston, Texas. Sign up at the Taste of Country Facebook page.

Thoughts to Ponder for December 19, 2016
"The U.S. can destroy Iraq's highways, but not build its own; create the conditions for epidemic in Iraq, but not offer health care to millions of Americans. It can excoriate Iraqi treatment of the Kurdish minority, but not deal with domestic race relations; create homelessness abroad but not solve it here; keep a half million troops drug free as part of a war, but refuse to fund the treatment of millions of drug addicts at home... We shall lose the war after we have won it." -- Marilyn Young, historian, talking about US government values and priorities
"It is easy to conceive that great evils to our country and its institutions might flow from such concentration of power in the hands of a few (bankers) (who are) irresponsible to the people. Controlling our currency, receiving our public money, and holding thousands of our citizens in dependence...would be more formidable and dangerous than a military power of the enemy..." ~Andrew Jackson

Montgomery County commissioners decided July 23 they did not want to consolidate voting precincts for the November election.
Because the ballot could have issues concerning the creation of the Lone Star Water Conservation District and a bond for road improvements throughout the county, Pct. 3 Commissioner Ed Chance said he wanted all county residents to have the opportunity to vote.
Montgomery County commissioners decided July 23 they did not want to consolidate voting precincts for the November election.
Because the ballot could have issues concerning the creation of the Lone Star Water Conservation District and a bond for road improvements throughout the county, Pct. 3 Commissioner Ed Chance said he wanted all county residents to have the opportunity to vote.
"If we are going to have that bond issue on there, I would like to see all the (polling locations) open," Chance said.
Pct. 1 Commissioner Mike Meador agreed with Chance and said all 72 precincts and early voting locations should be open. According to Carol Chedsey, elections administrator, because the Nov. 6 ballot will have items concerning Constitutional Amendments, the election is considered a special election.
The Texas Elections Code allows for precincts to be consolidated for special elections.
Commissioners are targeting the Nov. 6 election for the transportation bond issue but are still trying to hammer out the details.

The recent outbreak of Karnal Bunt in Texas has prompted Texas Farm Bureau President Donald Patman to seek relief for Texas wheat farmers from the United States Department of Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman.
An outbreak of the fungus, which lowers wheat production and quality, had been found early in the harvest in San Saba County, which was already under quarantine, and in Young and Throckmorton counties, during the heaviest part of the harvest. The outbreak potentially places at risk wheat and wheat product exports to 80 countries. Some other wheat producing counties have also experienced Karnal Bunt problems on a limited basis.
Complications arose when discovery of the infected wheat coincided with a holiday weekend, delaying a quarantine of the affected area for more than a week.
"Specifically, the Texas Farm Bureau would appreciate your early action to provide timely and adequate compensation to those producers and elevators experiencing these problems," Patman wrote to the USDA secretary July 2 who added that the hardship was already magnified by several years of low prices. "Delays in compensation may result in financial failure for many of those affected by the Karnal Bunt outbreak."
The Karnal Bunt outbreak, Patman said, could not have come at a worse time with Texas wheat producers experiencing better than average yields and somewhat improved prices this spring. He pointed, in the letter to the USDA, to additional problems resulting from the fact that scientific determinations and government actions involving Karnal Bunt have been called into question.
In the letter, he wrote, "A long term solution to the issue should involve further scientific evaluation as to the severity of Karnal Bunt and its impact on the industry. This effort should focus on fairness to all domestic wheat producers as well as the interest of maintaining U.S. grain export markets."
Patman, who produces grain near Waxahachie, stressed the seriousness of the problem for the state's wheat producers and appealed to Veneman for a prompt reply from USDA with regard to compensation. He indicated that Texas Farm Bureau, the state's largest general farm organization, is willing to assist in any way possible to resolve the Karnal bunt problem.energy
United States Representative Kevin Brady (R-Texas, District 8), told the House Ways & Means Committee July 18 the national energy policy should satisfy everyone who is concerned about the environment.
"With three times more money going toward conservation and reliability than new supplies of energy, this bill should satisfy every reasonable person concerned about the environment and a few of the irrational as well," Brady said.
He told the Committee that he is excited about the policy because he feels that Congress is finally tackling the national security problem of America's addition to foreign oil by using "a common sense, balanced game plan based on the three pillars of conservation, technology and new supply."
In addition, the bill contains a key provision pushed by Brady that he feels simplifies how oil and gas companies expense their geological and geophysical expenses when exploring for mineral deposits such as oil and gas (known as G&G expensing).
Brady says he believes this change has positive environmental benefits by encouraging more research prior to exploration, resulting not only in fewer well, but also wells with smaller footprints that disturb less of the surrounding environment.

All three broadcast networks skip the 10-minute Dole video biography Thursday night.
GOP spokesman Mark Merritt says the major TV networks "have the right of final censorship, and they exercised it. We can't control what the networks do." A similar video about President Clinton was broadcast at the '92 Democratic convention.A star is born
