Polluted air, contaminated water, depleted aquifers, multiple health problems, and even an inexplicable epidemic of earthquakes are a few of the side effects caused by this massively-destructive drilling process.
But the frackers hadn't counted on Rex getting mad, speaking out, and suing the bastards. What ticked off Tillerson was the erection of a 160-foot-tall water tower built by a company that can provide millions of gallons of water for fracking gas wells. But Rex is no environmentalist, so his objection is not to the waste and contamination of people's water, nor does he object at all to fracking. Rather, he's hopping mad because the 15-story tower stands above the tree line on his 83-acre, $5-million horse farm, spoiling his view.
Tillerson, you see, is not just some local dirt farmer. He says he and his wife moved here to have a weekend getaway so they can enjoy the rural lifestyle. He's not a farmer, at all – unless you count "farming the government" and harvesting billions of dollars in special tax breaks and subsidies. Rex (whose name means "king" in Latin), is the $40-million-a-year CEO of Exxon Mobil. Now, guess which oil giant is the biggest fracker in the USA. Right? Exxon Mobil.
So what we have here is a case of "phallic justice" – an upright, cylindrical water tower that's part of the fracking infrastructure, symbolically extending the middle-finger salute to Exxon's CEO every time he visits his horsey farm. How fitting that a guy who's gained a personal fortune from the ugliness of fracking now has some of that ugliness right in his face.

Getting Car Insurance Quotes Online
It is easy to find car insurance quotes online; in fact comparing rates and policies online is probably the easiest way to find the right car insurance policy. You can either check the site for each individual insurance company or use a site that does the comparison shopping for you. You will generally have to supply all your auto information only once which is a big advantage of these comparison sites. Expect to take between 10 and 30 minutes to input all the necessary information about your car as well as all your personal information. Quotes are then emailed to you or you may have access to your car insurance quotes online immediately.
Of course you want the lowest rate and the best policy if you are comparing car insurance rates online. One of the biggest things to consider is the deductible and lowering or raising this amount can make a big difference to the cost of your premiums. The deductible is the amount that you would have to pay in the event of a claim on your policy and before the insurance company pays up. However it is also important to make sure that you can actually afford to pay the deductible amount if you had to whether it is $100 $500 or more.
There are many other ways to get the lowest possible quote if you are looking online for affordable 10minutesonline car insurance. The amount of mileage that you drive in a year can make a big difference as well of course as the year make and model of the car you drive. If you have safety features fitted to your car such as airbags or anti lock brakes you can also save money on your online car insurance quote. It's also usually less expensive to buy your car insurance if you bundle different insurance policies together for example buy your auto and homeowners insurance through the same company.
If you are shopping around for auto insurance for a teen driver you will probably notice how costly it is and this is because teenage drivers are regarded as high risk. Keep your teen driver on your own policy rather than taking out a new one; this can help to lower your rates. The monthly insurance premiums for a teen driver can also be lower if they take and complete a safe driver course. You can even lower the cost of car insurance for a teen driver by persuading them to maintain good grades at school; all the steps taken above can lower policy rates by up to 20 percent. Of course the type and make of car also makes a big difference and if your teen drives an SUV or sports car you can expect to pay more. Yahoo news

The Global Mobile Enterprise Application Development Platform market will grow at a CAGR of 25.29 percent over the period 2013-2018.
The report, the Global Mobile Enterprise Application Development Platform Market 2014-2018, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas and the EMEA and APAC regions; it also covers the Global Mobile Enterprise Application Development Platform market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
One of the upcoming trends in this market is the emergence of cloud-based mobile applications. The emergence of cloud-based mobile enterprise application development platforms has enabled organizations to increase their efficiency and reduce the cost of deploying valuable IT infrastructure.
According to the report, one of the major drivers in the market is the high adoption of mobile devices. Mobile devices are not seen as a luxury anymore; they are seen as a business requirement. It is important for employees to have access to the company's secure information during their travel to many business meetings, and hence it becomes mandatory for organizations to provide access to secure data on smartphones.
Further, the report states that the diversity of the mobile landscape is one of the main challenges that the market faces. A mobile enterprise application development platform has to work in synchronization with many devices, OSs, and firmware, with each running different applications for different processes. Enterprises might even face difficulties in interacting with other departments such as back-office systems and networks.

Myelodysplastic syndromes are a group of disorders caused by poorly formed or dysfunctional blood cells. Myelodysplastic syndromes occur when something goes wrong in your bone marrow — the spongy material inside your bones where blood cells are made.
There is no cure for myelodysplastic syndromes. Treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes usually focuses on reducing or preventing complications of the disease and its treatments. In certain cases, myelodysplastic syndromes are treated with a bone marrow transplant, which may help prolong life.
Myelodysplastic syndromes rarely cause signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. In time, myelodysplastic syndromes may cause:
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have any signs or symptoms that worry you.
Myelodysplastic syndromes occur when something happens to disrupt the orderly and controlled production of blood cells. People with myelodysplastic syndromes have blood cells that are immature and defective, and instead of developing normally, they die in the bone marrow or just after entering the bloodstream. Over time, the number of immature, defective cells begins to surpass that of healthy blood cells, leading to problems such as anemia, infections and excess bleeding.
Doctors divide myelodysplastic syndromes into two categories based on their cause:
The World Health Organization divides myelodysplastic syndromes into subtypes based on the type of blood cells — red cells, white cells and platelets — involved. Myelodysplastic syndrome subtypes include:
Factors that may increase your risk of myelodysplastic syndromes include:
Complications of myelodysplastic syndromes include:
Whom to see
If you have signs and symptoms of myelodysplastic syndrome, you're likely to start by seeing your family doctor or a general practitioner. If your doctor suspects you have a myelodysplastic syndrome, you may be referred you to a doctor who specializes in blood disorders (hematologist).
How to prepare
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, be prepared. To prepare, try to:
Questions to ask
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For myelodysplastic syndromes, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask other questions that occur to you during your appointment.
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may allow more time later to cover points you want to address. Your doctor may ask:
If abnormal numbers of blood cells have been detected in your blood, your doctor may begin with tests and procedures to rule out diseases and conditions other than myelodysplastic syndromes that have similar signs and symptoms.
In addition, your doctor may recommend tests and procedures used to diagnose myelodysplastic syndromes, such as:
No definitive cure or treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes exists. Instead, most people receive supportive care to help manage symptoms such as fatigue and to prevent bleeding and infections.
Blood transfusions can be used to replace red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets in people with myelodysplastic syndromes.
Medications used to increase the number of healthy blood cells your body produces include:
During a bone marrow stem cell transplant, your defective blood cells are destroyed using powerful chemotherapy drugs. Then the abnormal bone marrow stem cells are replaced with healthy, donated cells (allogeneic transplant). Unfortunately, few people are candidates for this procedure because of the high risks involved in transplanting in older adults — those most likely to have myelodysplastic syndromes. Even among young, relatively healthy people, the risk of transplant-related complications is high.
Because people with certain myelodysplastic syndromes have low white blood cell counts, they're subject to recurrent, and often serious, infections. To reduce your risk of infections, try to:

Poison ivy, oak, and sumac are plants that can cause a red, itchy rash called
allergic contact dermatitis. It is the most common skin problem caused by
contact with plants.
rash is caused by contact with a sticky oil called urushiol (say "yoo-ROO-shee-all") found in poison ivy, oak, or
sumac. You can get the rash from:
The rash is only spread through the oil. You
can't catch a rash from someone else by touching the
blister fluid.
The rash is an
allergic reaction to the oil. You become allergic to it through contact. After you have come in contact with these plants, your immune system may start to react to the oil as though it's a harmful substance.
The usual
symptoms of the rash are:
Some people are very allergic to the oil. In these people, even a little bit of the oil may cause serious symptoms that need medical attention right away, such as:
The rash usually takes more than
a week to show up the first time you have a reaction to the oil. It
develops in a day or two on later contacts. The rash
may form in new areas over several days, but you will only get a rash where the oil touched your skin.
The rash usually lasts about 10 days
to 3 weeks. But it may last
up to 6 weeks in more severe cases.
A doctor can usually diagnose the rash by looking at it and asking questions about:
If you get a mild rash, you can take care of it at home.
Do not use the following medicines. They can cause allergy
problems of their own:
See your doctor if the rash covers a large area of your body or your symptoms are severe. A doctor may prescribe a corticosteroid cream to help clear up the rash. A severe rash may be treated with corticosteroid pills or shots.
If you think you have touched any of these plants:
The best way to prevent future rashes is to learn to identify
these plants and avoid them.
When you can't avoid contact with the plants:
Experts say not to burn plants like poison ivy, oak, or sumac. When these plants burn, urushiol attaches to smoke particles. Exposure to the smoke can cause a rash on your skin. Breathing in the smoke can also hurt your lungs.

Illusions in the Cosmic Clouds
NASA's Amazing Daily Image
Pareidolia is the psychological phenomenon where people see recognizable shapes in clouds, rock formations, or otherwise unrelated objects or data. There are many examples of this phenomenon on Earth and in space. When an image from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory of PSR B1509-58 -- a spinning neutron star surrounded by a cloud of energetic particles --was released in 2009, it quickly gained attention because many saw a hand-like structure in the X-ray emission. In a new image of the system, X-rays from Chandra in gold are seen along with infrared data from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) telescope in red, green and blue. Pareidolia may strike again as some people report seeing a shape of a face in WISE's infrared data. What do you see? NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, also took a picture of the neutron star nebula in 2014, using higher-energy X-rays than Chandra. PSR B1509-58 is about 17,000 light-years from Earth. JPL, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the WISE mission for NASA. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, manages the Chandra program for.

Bring art to life
© VisitBritain / Pawel Libera
Rolling hills, dramatic coastlines, hectic city scenes – the British landscape has played artist's muse for centuries. Take a look at some of the beautiful locations that have inspired some of the world's greatest works of art, and then see the masterpieces for yourself.
Start your tour of great British artists and their inspirations with one of our most treasured modern artists. David Hockney was born in Yorkshire, and the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds have cropped up in several of his masterpieces, including North Yorkshire and Garrowby Hill. You can find Hockney's works at the Tate Modern and Tate Britain, as well as Salts Mill in Yorkshire, which holds one of the largest collections of Hockney's art.
Next up, Constable Country - the Dedham Vale and Stour Valley areas of the Essex countryside immortalised by the great British landscape artist John Constable over 200 years ago. The National Trust run tours of Flatford, the site of Constable's most famous work, The Hay Wain, and you can visit the painting at the National Gallery afterwards.
Head to Manchester to see the city that inspired LS Lowry - one of the best loved British artists of the 20th century. Lowry's subjects were the street scenes of Manchester and Lancaster and the people in them, who he captured in his unique matchstick men style. Visit The Lowry, which houses the world's largest collection of his works, then visit the sites that inspired him, like Peel Park in Salford.
And of course, we can't talk about British landscape artists without mentioning JMW Turner.

Dakota Rockfest Weathers the Storm: Bret Michaels and Vince Neil Host Three Day Festival
July 21 – 23, 2010 at Sioux Empire Fairgrounds, Sioux Falls, SD.
by Derric Miller
Staff Writer
The third annual Dakota Rock Fest took place in Sioux Falls, S.D. July 22-24 at the Sioux Empire Fairgrounds. Like Rocklahoma a couple years back, Dakota Rock Fest 2010 unfortunately had to battle with Mother Nature, and it ended up shortening the Friday night event to just two bands—Lita Ford and Bret Michaels. While the weather didn't turn tornadic, it still put a bit of a damper on the event, considering one of the best new bands on the planet, Mama Kin, traveled from Sweden and didn't get to show the crowd exactly why you need to be their biggest fan.
On Thursday night (which Hardrock Haven was unable to attend), promoters Leisinger Entertainment opened up the gates free of charge for past and current military personnel and their families. All you had to do have some sort of military ID, and you could have seen bands like Asphalt Valentine, Rock N' Roll Damnation and one of the most talked about bands at festival, Hairball. The word on the street is that Hairball pulled out all the stops, went through extensive and believable costume changes, featured two lead singers who pulled off covers of Twisted Sister, KISS … and even Prince.
While the anticipation for Friday was sheerly about Lita and Bret, the bands Mama Kin, Attention and Far Cry planned on having their say as well. But the weather reports forced the promoters to put Lita on at 5:45 p.m., and Michaels at 7 p.m. While the promoters and all of the local radio stations made every effort (and then some) to get the word out, the venue was not as full as anyone would have expected when Lita tore things up. While Lita's new album has taken some head for going in an industrial direction, you cannot deny her musical talent or refute that songs like "Close Your Eyes Forever" and "Kiss Me Deadly" have stood the test of time. Lita, who isn't used to being the opening act for anyone, made it known she wasn't thrilled playing so early, but that didn't stop her from being a true professional. She had the crowd eating out of her hand, and her husband Jim Gillette even sang backing vocals the entire set. Gracious yet still full of snarky fire, Lita lived up to her name.
Bret Michaels, who is a nonstop touring machine and by now could do this in his sleep, unleashed his arsenal of Poison hits and some solo work to a crowd that seemingly can't get enough of his music. He was the main headliner in 2009 and Dakota Rock Fest was fortunate to get him back considering the health woes Michaels has struggled with over the past year. The ultimate professional, Michaels closed the concert by making a few carpe diem comments—sometimes it's just good to be alive, especially if you are Bret Michaels.
While the other bands were still holding out hope of playing after Bret Michaels, the minute Michaels left stage the venue announcement lightning, heavy winds and rainstorms are on the way, so everyone got the "you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here" send off. You couldn't help but feel sympathy for Mama Kin, who were living the dream right up until the promoter told them of the lineup time change. Lead singer Ward said it best: "He's Bret Michaels. I can't tell him when he can or can't play." Far Cry, the talented band with powerhouse vocalist Mark Giovi, found a slot on Saturday so their trip to Sioux Falls was not for naught. Mama Kin had a show in Omaha the next day, though, so maybe next year …
Saturday rolled around, and the promoters switched around playing times again, trying to accommodate as much music as possible. By noon, the music started, and local Sioux Falls favorites Jukebox Zeroes were on by 12:45 p.m. In the past, Jukebox Zeroes offered mainly covers, but every single person in that band has been a staple of the Sioux Falls' music scene for a couple decades, and they featured mainly originals for their set. Singer/keyboardist Amy Ellsworth is one of the best singers you have yet to hear (unless you have), and covers be damned … their original music rocked. Of course, the band is known for their Heart covers, so they ended it all with "Crazy on You." Even when you come to expect greatness from them, they exceed expectations anyway.
Hardrock Haven's own Derric Miller took the stage to announce Paisty Jenny. This was Paisty Jenny's third time playing Dakota Rock Fest, and first time with new guitarist Stan Liberty, who adds a bit more Metal to the overall sound. Since the band has opened the event the past two years, this was their first chance to play before a larger afternoon crowd (and not hungover morning crowd). Paisty Jenny is now a well-oiled machine, driven by songwriter/singer/guitarist Gregg Lee's snarling yet fiercely melodic anthems. Along with drummer Tye Lovette and bassist Gabe Matthews, Paisty Jenny once again proved they belong on stage with every single band before AND after them.
Tango Down and Far Cry, both Kivel Records recording acts, had their time in the increasingly blistering sun as well. Far Cry, who fortunately found a slot Saturday after the Friday bounce, opened with "We Rock" from Dio and never let up. If you haven't seen or heard them yet, you are doing yourself a disservice. Tango Down had 50 percent different people than last year, and the big addition is David Reece (Bangalore Choir). Tango Down's music becomes more serious and Classic sounding with Reece behind the mic. Former singers Phil Naro and Alex Barbieri both fronted the band at one time, but neither have the weight of Reece's legacy behind him. In fact, two songs played weren't even Tango Down songs—they played a Bangalore Choir and an Accept song instead, making Reece the focal point of the band.
Bombay Black, who has a new album out called Love You to Death on Triage Music, are simply one of the best sounding live acts around. What they create in the studio they can recreate perfectly on stage. Their aggression, their sense of humor, their huge vocal melodies and their limitless attitude come to sonic life when you see them live. Each member is an original personality in his own right, and together, Bombay Black just keeps getting better.
Ted Poley of Danger Danger (www.tedpoley.com) was one of the most anticipated musicians of the whole event. He hasn't played anywhere around the Dakota Territories in far too long, and to finally hear the voice of Danger Danger live was more than worth the wait. To put it bluntly, Poley is the ultimate frontman. He works the crowd, he draws you in, he makes you smile and laugh while you are trying to sing along with hit after hit, and vocally, Poley tied for the best vocals of the entire festival. Unfortunately for Poley, he was so dedicated to giving the crowd everything he had, he forgot that it was now in the high '80s, the sun was blasting a black stage, he had holes in his jeans … and he kept sliding to his knees on this searing surface. After the show, once the adrenaline wore off, Poley realized he was the proud owner of some nasty second degree burns; he even pulled off a silver dollar sized fried piece of himself and flung it at one his prior label heads. He was even nice enough to send a picture of his fricasseed knees for your viewing pleasure. It was a coup for Dakota Rock Fest to get Poley to play in Sioux Falls. Poley's band featured Vic Rivera (Adriangale, Poley Rivera) and some players from Far Cry, including guitarist Pete Fry who dexterously nailed his Andy Timmons solos.
Last year, Dakota Rock Fest dipped into the vault and brought April Wine to Sioux Falls. This year, their retrospective look included Axe and Molly Hatchet. Axe fared the better of the two, with their hit "Rock And Roll Party in the Streets." Molly Hatchet even played a Skynyrd cover, for some reason.
Warrant — who has undergone singer changes from Jani Lane to Jaime St. James back to Jani Lane now to Robert Mason (Lynch Mob, Big C**k) — played right before closer Vince Neil. Warrant finally has a singer who can hit all the notes, recreate the past and help forge the band's future. If you haven't heard Mason live before, his immeasurable vocal talent and limitless energy has to be daunting for other singers to follow. You don't want to be the person to follow Robert Mason, period. From "Cherry Pie" to "I Saw Red" to "Uncle Tom's Cabin," they played all their multi-platinum hits and everyone witnessed a rejuvenated and recharged Warrant steal the show.
With the "evolution" of Rocklahoma, who completely sold out to the Corporate Rock Gods, it seemed that Dakota Rock Fest had the opportunity to steal some of their thunder by featuring these still-relevant '80s acts. Would it have been a bigger draw for the promoters had Motley Crue, Poison and Danger Danger played? Yes, certainly. Dakota Rock Fest is extremely affordable compared to other festivals, but they may have to bite the bullet and pull in a band like Whitesnake next year if they want to keep making the festival bigger and more relevant (and make bank for their efforts). The promoters have updated and rearranged the festival every year and have proven they can adapt, so it should make next year's Dakota Rock Fest even more interesting.

Statement of New York State School Boards Association Executive Director Timothy G. Kremer.
Governor Cuomo deserves high marks for putting forth solid proposals that will help raise student achievement.
Proposals to provide full-day pre-kindergarten, extend the school day, and offer "wrap around" community services in schools all make perfect sense. We support them wholeheartedly.
While the governor appears to support local control, his speech was notable for its omission of any mandate relief for schools whatsoever.
We realize that the State of the State is a time of vision. That's why we eagerly await the Governor's upcoming budget proposal to see if these initiatives are supported with adequate resources.
Without adequate state funding or meaningful mandate relief, the governor's ambitious proposals will fall victim to the budget realities facing New York schools.

Mentorship is one of those goals rotary clubs strive for, particularly when it comes to grooming future community business leaders. Nowhere was this more important than when the most recent Farmingdale Breakfast Rotary meeting's guests were Stanley Pelech, director of Integrated Academic and Technical studies and Jodi Haniquet, advisor of the Farmingdale High School (FHS) Interact club. Interact is Rotary International's service club for young people. The Farmingdale Breakfast Rotary is the sponsor of the 75-plus student strong high school club. Advisor Jodi Haniquet reported to Rotary club members what fundraising events the Interact Club will participate in for the 2015 school year. The service group will once again team with FHS student government in a food drive – donations collected for Island Harvest pantries. They will also participate in Ronald McDonald house dinner program – cooking and serving meals on the premises in New Hyde Park for the many families staying at the residence while their seriously ill children receive treatment at nearby hospitals.
