Actress Sofia Vergara and her new beau Joe Manganiello brought their romance South of the Border and spent Labor Day weekend (29Aug-01Sep14) together in Mexico.
The Colombian beauty and the Magic Mike hunk have been dating for nearly three months, and decided to get some rest and relaxation with a romantic getaway.
Vergara posted a photo on Twitter.com on Sunday (31Aug14) showing off her and Manganiello's suntanned legs while lounging on the beach. She added the caption, "Heaven #Mexico".
The pair was also photographed enjoying time by the ocean, as Manganiello smoked a cigar and Vergara looked on with a giant smile on her face.
Their holiday in the sun coincided with the launch of the sequel to Manganiello's stripper movie, Magic Mike XXL.

It's amazing that the boyish good looks of the Aberdeen based band 'Cast of the Capital' contrast so neatly with their formidable maturity and authoritative power when it comes to creating those leaping melodies of sound and instantly hummable verses. We can't live without those lively tempos and rat-a-tat beats. The music takes us back to a gentler and sweeter time.
Matthew Morris fronts the band with those squeaky clean vocals and cheerful electric guitar. He is ably assisted in the task by Jamie Watt on backing vocals and guitars. His crisp solos were enjoyable but could have been more electrifying – bolder. The immediate energy and cracking pace of the band is provided by Alastair Naylor on drums with Matthew's brother Steve on the restrained bass.
Cast of the Capital songs hurtle along like a runaway cart. As cheerful as a day out in June and as friendly as a carefree laugh with your school chums. Their compositions are fully structured, containing many details and pleasant meanders, like a mixture of light touches of summer rain with bright interludes. Sometimes the melodies rise to enthralling highs and the choruses are always incisive. Singalong verses keep you moving and humming.
Songs like 'Park Hands' possess a simplistic Sixties aura about them and reminded me of 'The Kinks' or 'Manfred Mann'. Jamboree bags full of shimmering guitar and feel good verses. The song 'Cinnamon Hill' is more of a rock 'n boogie number reminiscent of old time 'Sweet' or 'T.Rex'. And 'Comiston Springs' contains the sound of swirling tartan and breeze running through the heather – traditional echoes from a proud country – sounding a lot like the 80's Dunfermline band 'Big Country'.
The performance from the boys at The Hob was about as confident as Tiger Woods at a lap-dancing club i.e. None more confident! The Staines crowd enjoyed the elegant textures and immediate energy of the band. The songs might be as frothy as the top of your cappuccino but the band probably has hidden and darker depths – like your early morning espresso. Just don't expect deep political messages or suicidal thoughts at a Cast of the Capital gig. The boys look like they are enjoying themselves and they want you to do the same. And why not?
The band can be praised for their attention to detail … so it's a shame that their entire song-book wasn't as well constructed and as dynamically refined as their final number. Because if it was all as strong as this amazing number then Professor Higgins might well have said "By Jove! I think we've got it."
If you enjoy rocketing choruses and soaring melodies with a delicate touch of folksy twang – all put together in a well packaged product – then you need look no further than Cast of the Capital.

"Friends are telling me I look very young and never more beautiful - I'm 60!
When I first started treatment I only wanted to use small amounts of injections. Now I leave the amounts up to Dr. Rakus and I can truly say 'more is better' - don't hesitate to go for it!"

Immediately after the treatment with PERLANE there may be slight redness, swelling, tenderness and an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the PERLANE injection. If the inconvenience continues or if other reactions occur, please contact your physician.
The PERLANE treated area should be massaged gently for 30 seconds morning and night for 2 to 3 days.
The initial swelling after the PERLANE treatment may last longer. Some patients experience swelling for about a week. This means that the result directly after the PERLANE treatment should not be seen as the final result.
Avoid touching the PERLANE treated area 6 hours after the treatment. After that the PERLANE treated area can be gently washed with soap and water and light make-up can be applied.
Until the initial swelling and redness have resolved, do not expose the PERLANE treated area to intense heat (e.g. solarium and sunbathing) or extreme cold.
If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the needle punctures could contribute to another eruption of cold sores.
If you are using aspirin or any similar medication, be aware that these may increase the bruising and bleeding at the PERLANE injection site.
PERLANE contains the body's own natural material, hyaluronic acid.
PERLANE treatment is long lasting but not permanent. You always have a choice to continue your Perlane treatment or change the combination of RESTYLANE or RESTYLANELIPP treatments - and the procedure can be repeated as often as you like.
Most patients choose to have a follow-up Perlane treatment 6 to 12 months after an initial treatment of wrinkles. When the lips have been treated a follow-up treatment is normally needed after about 6 months.
A touch-up PERLANE treatment within 2-4 weeks after the initial treatment may be necessary to achieve an optimal correction.
Clinical experience indicates that follow-up PERLANE treatments normally require a smaller amount of the product.

Ciao, everyone! How beautiful is this maxi dress I wore our first day in Positano? It's so unique and unlike anything I've ever owned! I love how the high slits reveal the romper underneath. We are currently in Capri, but we spent four full days in Positano eating, exploring, taking pictures, and eating some more (I have had more carbs in the past week than I've had my ENTIRE life, I'm pretty sure!). These pictures were taken in a little alleyway near the beach. One thing you must know about Positano - the only way to get anywhere is by climbing up or down thousands of steps! But from wherever you are in Positano, you can always find a stairway that leads down to the beach.
I can't wait to share everything about our trip with you guys! So far we have visited Positano, Ravello and Capri and I intend to do a Travel Guide for each city. Although they're relatively close to each other, each city is so vastly different that it's almost like visiting different countries. Each time we head to a new city I think, "There's no way I could possibly love the next city more!" and then by the time we get there, I have changed my mind and it's my new favorite.
Anyway, stay tuned for more photos and Travel Guides! I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL weekend!

NEW YORK ( MainStreet) -- Necessity is and has always been the mother of invention, and as the space community laments the Obama administration's decision to let the space shuttle program end without a replacement to put people in orbit or visit the International Space Station, the private sector has stepped up with a vengeance to fill the void. Shuttle Enterprise arrived in New York City last Friday, traveling atop a 747 jet to its final resting place at Manhattan's Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. Shuttle Discovery became part of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum collection in Washington, D.C. the week before that, and shuttles Endeavour and Atlantis will also be heading to retirement soon: Endeavour to the California Science Center in Los Angeles. Entrepreneurs and investors see big money in space, though, and programs launched by the likes of Virgin Media's ( VMED) Richard Branson or PayPal ( EBAY) and Tesla Motors ( TSLA) founder Elon Musk are on the cusp of taking over the complex business of putting satellites and rich people into orbit, and ferrying science experiments to the International Space Station.
Virgin Galactic, as Branson's venture is known, is already taking $20,000 deposits for the $200,000 tickets for space tourists to pop out of the Earth's atmosphere, which it anticipates being able to fulfill early in 2013. CEO George Whitesides reported that the company had accumulated deposits of almost $60 million as of late 2011, suggesting that interest is strong among those who can afford it. The group has logged successful flights of its launch system, a catamaran-style plane known as WhiteKnightTwo that takes the actual space vehicle known as SpaceShipTwo into the upper atmosphere for a running start at reaching the blackness of space, both developed by a partnership with Scaled Composites, a division of defense and aerospace giant Northrop Grumman ( NOC), maker of the B-2 stealth bomber. When the pool of billionaire passengers trails off, or if the company isn't able to bring the cost down far enough to make space accessible to lower rungs of the 1%, Virgin even foresees a future where sub-orbital flights are used simply for travel purposes. Where the Concorde turned a seven-and-a-half hour flight from New York to London into a three hour affair, Virgin's suborbital flights could do it in an hour. While there are no official plans to develop that capability yet, construction has begun on New Mexico's Spaceport America, which will serve as a headquarters for Virgin's launches, and neighboring Colorado has applied for permission to build its own spaceport this year to accommodate the anticipated burst of interest in boldly going where only a few hundred men and women have gone before. And Virgin will have some competition in snatching up those dollars.
|Private ventures like the one led by Virgin's Richard Branson and Tesla Motors' Elon Musk are leading a new space race.
Orbital Sciences ( ORB), another established player in the space race, has generated plenty of buzz about its its Antares rocket, a project funded at least in part by NASA's COTS program, which along with the 2010 acquisition of General Dynamics' ( GD) satellite division, puts the company at the head of the game to grow its share of the communications satellite business. Despite all the growth in the private space race though, some notable failures like Rocketplane Kistler give reason for pause. The company showed initial promise with its plan to develop a reusable launch vehicle to replace NASA's single-use rocket boosters that launched the space shuttle into orbit. The company even got NASA funding through its COTS program in 2006 to finance the project, but an inability to raise additional funds led to NASA abandoning the program in 2007, and the company declared bankruptcy in 2010. That said, for investors with the strong financial backing needed to sustain such hi-technology ventures, there is a huge upside to investing in space. And while space tourism and satellite launches will be affordable only to governments and extremely high-net-worth individuals for the foreseeable future, the spinoff innovations that come from pursuing spaceflight are undeniable. Bigelow Aerospace, founded in 1999 by American real estate developer Robert Bigelow, has focused its efforts on developing low-cost modular habitats for an eventual lunar colony or space stations. The company has put two of its habitats in orbit and secured exclusive contracts with NASA to develop these for a planned return to the moon. Since these habitats are fully self-contained and cut off from the environment outside, the company will not have to wait until humans set up shop on the dark side of the moon to reap the rewards. Sanitation systems, air recycling and sustainable energy generation are just a few characteristics of a space habitat that will reap rewards back home on earth, offering the potential to license technology to players in other industries. Other companies that focus on improving launch vehicles and rocket engines should lead to new ways to incorporate hybrid fuel sources, potentially changing the nature of air travel in general. Solar panels outfitted on space capsules may bring up the efficiency and bring down the costs of an industry that has struggled to take off here on Earth. Space travel began in the 1960s and took decades to reach some level of normalcy. With the high price tags involved, the barriers to entry for private ventures were generally impossible to overcome, except for the biggest players. But while NASA's closing the doors of the space shuttle program meant the end of exploration for some, the reality is much brighter than that. Private space companies are betting on the future in a big way, and this time investors, not taxpayers, will drive the innovations. -- Written by Greg Emerson in New York >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to @emersongreg. >To submit a news tip, email: email@example.com.

A mail carrier saved Tara Burleson's wedding after chasing down a man who stole a package off the bride-to-be's porch. The thief threw a rock at the carrier and got away but dropped the package.
Burleson probably would not have realized until it was too late that two big LED candles were missing from her wedding decor.
A steady stream of parcels has been delivered to her house in north Modesto since she and her fiancé moved there in October. They have been furnishing their home, as well as buying decorations for the wedding and gifts for the bridesmaids. Burleson said she had 12 boxes delivered to her home one day.
On Monday, a thief took notice of one particularly large box containing the candles, which each cost $80. Fortunately for Burleson, her U.S. Postal Service carrier saw the theft.
The carrier started following the man in her truck, asking him what he was doing and taking pictures of him to give to police.
She didn't want her name used in this story for fear of retaliation; the man threw a rock at her, after all.
"I kept in my vehicle and followed him and said, 'Where are you going?' 'What are you doing?' and then finally, 13 houses later, he dropped the box on the garbage cans," the carrier said. She grabbed the parcel and took a few photos of the man before he ran down the street.
The carrier continued her route, but then saw the man again a few blocks away.
She said she thought she would get a few more close-ups of him, so "I made a U-turn. I snapped a picture of him and he got a little further down and I snapped another and that's when he proceeded to pick up a rock."
Mike Maguin, who lives nearby, said he saw the man running down the street followed by the mail carrier in her truck. As the man ran by Maguin, he heard him yelling profanities at the carrier, then saw him pick up the football-sized rock and throw it at her before disappearing into a neighbor's backyard.
He went to see if she was all right and was inspired by what she told him.
"I just thought that was so incredibly brave of her," Maguin said. "People should know we have really good people working for us."
The carrier left a note in Burleson's box explaining what had happened and where she could pick up her package. It wasn't even a parcel she had delivered; it was previously dropped off by FedEx. The carrier said she was just doing what was right.
"It makes me so mad because we have had a lot of trouble (with theft)," she said. "It is just so prevalent."
Burleson found the carrier on her route Wednesday and thanked her.
"I think it's amazing," Burleson said. "I think we live in a day and age where people see things and they don't say anything, and I think that is awesome that she (did this) for us."

2. Increase chest measurement by accentuating taper (Terris Major) with short pull (chest concave, elbows wide) not lats
3. Bring up arm measurement with peak bicep (Spider bench) double contraction
4. Pull out middle tricep for corresponding line of measurement on tape, with pulley push down (elbows firm to body and thumbs on top of bar.)
5. Bring out dramatic illusion of width by using DB laterals or shoulder width upright rowing. Laterals are tilted down (front bell – elbows bent.)
6. Give no abdominal work of any kind or you will stop all muscle growth.
7. Give forearm work seated on bench (straddle and actually lay bar on bench each rep (singles).) Thumbs must be under bar. Forearms and wrists are on top of thighs with wrists hanging over knees.
8. Reverse BB curls are done with collar width grip and bar rubs body on the curl and down. Hacks are done in Frog Squat position, heels together and back under hips. Toes are wide – 12 inches.
9. Calves are always done with shoes 4″ wide and come up on big toe drawing heel together at top of movement (knees are unlocked).
Nutrition will not be discussed because nutrition is highly individualized.
Do not deviate from these exercises because anything other than this routine will not cause super fast visual results.

Supercomputer Leader Will Leverage Intellectual Property and Provide a Path Forward for PathScale Customers
SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwire - August 27, 2009) - Global supercomputer leader Cray Inc. (NASDAQ: CRAY) today announced it has acquired the PathScale Compiler Suite assets
from SiCortex. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Cray plans to leverage some of the PathScale intellectual property to
enhance Cray's own compiler offerings over time. The company will
contribute other parts of the PathScale intellectual property to the open
source community through an alliance with NetSyncro.com, an organization of
compiler engineers with strong open source ties. NetSyncro.com will
continue developing the PathScale Compiler Suite, provide support for users
of the software and will rebrand the effort under the original PathScale
"Our main goal for this acquisition was to provide clear direction for
those Cray customers who want to continue using the PathScale Compiler
Suite on Cray supercomputers," said Peter Ungaro, Cray president and CEO.
"We believe turning the PathScale compiler's future development and
customer support over to a new and similar PathScale organization
accomplishes our goal, as it provides a path forward for PathScale compiler
users and helps ensure that the software will have a robust, open source
HPC community around it. We also expect our own world-class compiler to
benefit from some of the PathScale technology. This is another indicative
example of our strategy to acquire the key technology components necessary
to building a productive, high performance user environment on our
"I cannot express enough gratitude to Cray in helping rebuild PathScale and
giving us this opportunity for the future," said Christopher Bergström,
PathScale's new CTO. "Our vision ahead is bright and optimistic with a
focus to continue our position as one of the highest performing HPC
compilers in the industry. As a new member of the PathScale team I intend
to lead the way in building a strong open source community for PathScale.
We believe our solid commitment to open source will enable the community to
thrive by facilitating collaboration, sharing of knowledge, innovation and
"PathScale's EKO compiler suite has been a popular choice in the HPC
community since 2004," said PathScale Engineering Director Fred Chow. "Our
performance stands out amongst the competition and we continue to raise the
standard for the industry. We thank Cray for supporting PathScale and for
fulfilling the engineers' wishes to continue their work. The new PathScale
will focus on improving product delivery, quality of support, and porting
to new platforms to substantially expand our impact in the open source
community. We will also focus not only on benchmark results, but
collaboration with important open source projects and helping developers
tune for performance."

No Place Like Home
NASA Celebrates Earth Day with #NoPlaceLikeHome Event
This Earth Day, April 22, NASA is asking people around the world to share pictures and videos on social media that show there is no place like home – planet Earth.
NASA's Earth Day #NoPlaceLikeHome project seeks to get the public involved in highlighting the great diversity of the places, landscapes and ecosystems of our home planet. Participants are invited to post photos and videos that answer a simple question: What is your favorite place on Earth?
Images can be shared using the hashtag #NoPlaceLikeHome on Twitter, Instagram, Vine, Facebook, Google+ and Flickr. Leading up to Earth Day, NASA will participate by posting its own images and videos.
NASA's mission includes exploring beyond Earth and using the vantage point of space to improve our understanding of the most complex planet we've seen yet. The agency's Earth-observing satellites, airborne research and field campaigns are designed to observe our planet's dynamic systems – oceans, ice sheets, forests and atmosphere – and improve our ability to understand how our planet is changing and could change.

Where do satellites go when they die?
On February 23rd, a Chinese satellites orbit degraded and it came to a flaming end over Montana. Which raises the question, what happens to satellites after they are no longer viable? Since there was an Aurora alert that night, several observers were out and documented the fireball. We aren't always as lucky to see satellites end in such a spectacular way. So, where do old satellites go to die? Countries and commercial ventures have been putting spacecraft in orbit around Earth since the late 1950s. There must be a lot of space junk out there. So what happens to them when they no longer work? Find out more at: http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/spacecraft-graveyard/en/
February SMAS Meeting
Is it February already! Time is going by fast. I spent the past week in Chicago for a Heliophysics workshop. More activities for us to do at outreach events this summer.

ASTRONOMY FRONTIERS: 25 years ago and 25 years from now
Shane L. Larson
Northwestern University & Adler Planetarium
Astronomy is always on the move, a constantly changing landscape of knowledge, mysteries, questions and answers. Over the past 400 years, the field of astronomy has evolved rapidly, driven largely by the evolution of technology, a fact that is as true for professional astronomers as it is for amateur astronomers! In this talk, we'll discuss the tapestry of astronomical technology and knowledge 25 years ago, examine how our perceptions of the Cosmos have changed dramatically in the short time since then, and speculate wildly on what the future may hold.
SMAS in 2015
- January SMAS meeting – How to set up your new telescope
- February SMAS meeting – The night sky and how to use a planesphere

We combine our November and December meetings, so our next meeting will be on Friday December 5, 2014 at 6:00 p.m. We will be meeting at the Bozeman Fire Station #3 located off of Davis Drive between Babcock and Oak Streets. Enter in by the flag pole. Contact me if you need directions. We will announce election results and finish off with a potluck. SMAS will provide the main dish, members are asked to bring a side dish, salad, or dessert to share.
UPDATE: It was a fabulous potluck with great food and conversations. It was nice to catch up with everyone and share what is going on with our shared hobby. We talked about new scopes and old scopes, we discussed astrophotography and the new Orion Mission that went up today – history in the making! Here is a screen shot from shortly after take off this morning 12/5/14. I watched the event on NASA tv.
Where the Heavenliest of Showers Come From
By Dr. Ethan Siegel
You might think that, so long as Earth can successfully dodge the paths of rogue asteroids and comets that hurtle our way, it's going to be smooth, unimpeded sailing in our annual orbit around the sun. But the meteor showers that illuminate the night sky periodically throughout the year not only put on spectacular shows for us, they're direct evidence that interplanetary space isn't so empty after all!
When comets (or even asteroids) enter the inner solar system, they heat up, develop tails, and experience much larger tidal forces than they usually experience. Small pieces of the original object—often multiple kilometers in diameter—break off with each pass near the sun, continuing in an almost identical orbit, either slightly ahead-or-behind the object's main nucleus. While both the dust and ion tails are blown well off of the main orbit, the small pieces that break off are stretched, over time, into a diffuse ellipse following the same orbit as the comet or asteroid it arose from. And each time the Earth crosses the path of that orbit, the potential for a meteor shower is there, even after the parent comet or asteroid is completely gone!
This relationship was first uncovered by the British astronomer John Couch Adams, who found that the Leonid dust trail must have an orbital period of 33.25 years, and that the contemporaneously discovered comet Tempel-Tuttle shared its orbit. The most famous meteor showers in the night sky all have parent bodies identified with them, including the Lyrids (comet Thatcher), the Perseids (comet Swift-Tuttle), and what promises to be the best meteor shower of 2014: the Geminids (asteroid 3200 Phaethon). With an orbit of only 1.4 years, the Geminids have increased in strength since they first appeared in the mid-1800s, from only 10-to-20 meteors per hour up to more than 100 per hour at their peak today! Your best bet to catch the most is the night of December 13th, when they ought to be at maximum, before the Moon rises at about midnight.
The cometary (or asteroidal) dust density is always greatest around the parent body itself, so whenever it enters the inner solar system and the Earth passes near to it, there's a chance for a meteor storm, where observers at dark sky sites might see thousands of meteors an hour! The Leonids are well known for this, having presented spectacular shows in 1833, 1866, 1966 and a longer-period storm in the years 1998-2002. No meteor storms are anticipated for the immediate future, but the heavenliest of showers will continue to delight skywatchers for all the foreseeable years to come!

Poetry, dance, physics unite in Nov. 7, 8 performances of 'Rhythms of the Universe'
UPDATE: Bravo! Hopefully you were able to make one of the performances, I did and it was very impressive – great going!
You may remember in April 2013 Nico Yunes from MSU invited SMAS to his Celebrating Einstein events. He wanted us to know about the next installment called Rhythms of the Universe. Nico received NASA's Einstein Fellowship in 2010 and researches Einstein's Theory of General Relativity and gravitation, specializing in black holes, neutrons stars and compact binaries. This show combines astrophysical concepts, poetry and dance. Participants spent several months learning about black holes, neutron stars, etc., then wrote poetry that incorporated those concepts. They will perform their poems in a spoken-word format, and the Headwaters Dance Academy will interpret the poems
BOZEMAN — Poetry, dance and physics will be entwined in a new show to be performed at 7 p.m. Nov. 7 and 8 in the Emerson Cultural Center theatre in Bozeman.
The free public event, "Rhythms of the Universe: Words and Worlds in Motion," will combine science and the arts in the vein of last year's "Celebrating Einstein" event, said Montana State University physicist Nico Yunes who organized both.
The event will consist of a series of spoken-word performances that will use astrophysics imagery to convey human and social issues, followed by contemporary dance pieces aimed at providing an interpretation for the poems, Yunes said.

Amnesty International, December 18, 2007
The global campaign against the death penalty secured a landmark victory on Tuesday when the United Nations General Assembly endorsed the call for a worldwide moratorium (suspension) on executions. In a landslide result, 104 UN member states voted in favour of the ground-breaking resolution. 54 countries voted against, while there were 25 abstentions.
Amnesty International welcomes this timely resolution, passed at the UN headquarters in New York City, as a clear recognition of the international trend towards worldwide abolition of the death penalty.
A total of 133 countries, from all regions of the world, have abolished the death penalty in law or practice and only 25 countries carried out executions in 2006. 91% of all known executions took place in six countries: China, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Sudan and the USA. Recorded executions worldwide fell by more than 25% in 2006, with a drop from at least 2,148 in 2005 to at least 1,591.
Although not legally binding, the UN moratorium on executions carries considerable moral and political weight. The resolution is a reminder of member states' commitment to work towards abolition of the death penalty. It is also an important tool to encourage retentionist countries to review their use of the death penalty.
Amnesty International calls on countries which still use the death penalty to establish an immediate moratorium on executions as a first step towards abolishing capital punishment. The UN Secretary-General will report to the General Assembly in October 2008 on states' implementation of the resolution.
"This landmark resolution is a major step towards ending this cruel and inhuman punishment and an important contribution to protecting human rights," said Yvonne Terlingen, Amnesty International's Head of Office at the UN. "The death penalty is inhuman, inherently arbitrary and innocent people are invariably executed".

A new month means a new design from Kathy Schmitz's, One Stitch at a Time club. Be sure to click on the link, she also has a free pattern this week. I decided to make two smaller pillows to decorate for fall. I like to keep some halloween things out that work for fall, but it is nice to have something less Halloweeny for the rest of fall.
I used tea stained muslin and one piece had a nice streak in it, then I added a bit of walnut to tone down the brightness of the other fabric. For the back I used an orange colored fabric with a fall print, including acorns. I may see if I can find some acorn buttons to add to the corners.
And since we got an earlier start, we were able to walk to the end and along the beach. No people around so we could let Bean off leash and let him play on the beach. The sun was in and out and the bay was covered in fog, but so peaceful. I love walking off season, hopefully we can do more hikes this weekend and catch the end of the foliage season.
I wanted to take a photo of the pilings, and was thinking, it would be better if there was a seagull at the end. And just as I walked up to shoot, a seagull came, he made my day;) I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

than 18,000 Kentuckians were without power as of 10 a.m. Monday following a massive tornado outbreak on Friday and several inches of heavy, wet snowfall overnight in some portions of the state.
The Kentucky Public Service Commission reported that 9,350 customers who lost power following Friday's tornadoes remained without electricity, mostly in Morgan, Magoffin, Martin, Johnson and Lawrence counties in Eastern Kentucky.
That number may not reflect restoration efforts that have been completed but not yet reported, particularly from hard-hit areas such as the Licking Valley RECC service territory, the PSC reported.
Also, another 8,969 lost power Monday morning after snow blanketed much of Central and Eastern Kentucky, including about 4 inches of snow in tornado-ravaged West Liberty and Salyersville. Outages from the snow included 2,650 in Scott, 2,100 in Franklin, 785 in Woodford and 360 in Fayette.
The death toll in Kentucky from Friday's violent storms remained at 21 Monday morning but the count was adjusted in two Eastern Kentucky counties.
Specialist Michael May with the Kentucky National Guard said the fatality count in Menifee is three, six in Morgan, two in Lawrence, two in Johnson, five in Laurel and three in Kenton.
An earlier count, May said, put Morgan County with seven fatalities and neighboring Menifee County with two. He said additional information resulted in the change.
The injury count remained at about 300, May said.

HOMEOWNERS Rob and Ruth Melia of Newton-le-Willows had been thinking for some time about remortgaging.
Ruth, who works for Autotrader, says: "We'd been with the Halifax for nine years and we were on its standard variable rate of 5.75 per cent. With falling interest rates we knew we could improve our rate."
The couple - who have two children, Natalie, nine, and Andrew, five - sought advice from a financial adviser, who arranged a two-year discounted rate at 3.99 per cent with Cheshire Building Society.
There were no fees and it comes with no tie-ins at the end of the discounted rate period. The remortgage saves the couple more than é200 a month compared to what they used to pay.
Ruth, says: "It was great to save so much money and know that after the discounted rate we could remortgage elsewhere if we wanted to. The financial adviser talked us through the best deals available and the mortgage went through extremely quickly and smoothly."

Piper nigrum, native to South India, is a perennial that produces black peppercorns. Dried peppercorns are crushed to make black pepper. What's fascinating is that this plant can also produce white and green pepper, depending on when the fruit is picked. Even if you don't live in the humid tropics (USDA Zones 10 or 11), you can grow your own black pepper indoors.
Position the small, metal trellis in your pot. Note that your pepper plant can grow up to 33 feet tall, so for space limitations, 36 inches (or 3 feet) for a trellis works well.
Pour half of your African violet soil up to 4 inches from the top. Use 1 1/2 gallons of soil per 8 inches of pot; use 2 1/2 gallons soil for a 10-inch pot. Ohio State University suggests the bigger the better for container gardening. Make sure the pot has holes in the bottom for ventilation.
Twist off the landscaping pot from the roots of the black pepper plant with one hand and carefully set the root ball in the new container, centered in front of the trellis. Pour in the remaining soil, patting it down around your plant.
Use two types of fertilizers, timed-release and water soluble, both because nutrients dry out of the soil. Start with using a 10-10-10, 13-13-13 or 14-14-14 formula of slow release fertilizer. The ratio is 1/2 tablespoon fertilizer to 1 gallon of soil mix. When your pepper plant begins to show fruit, consider a super bloom fertilizer. Look for a 10-50-10 or 19-59-9 mixture, adding once a week. Instead, you could use Miracle Gro 15-30-15, a water soluble fertilizer, once a week.
Station this woody vine in the sunniest window. Because it's a tropical plant that needs humidity, indoor temperatures must be a minimum of 65 to 70 degrees F. Do not move it because it needs all the sun it can get. Mist the leaves with warm water every three days. Also water it every three days until the soil is moist. Take care to not over water.
Pollinate your plant by gently shaking the stems or rub the pistols in the flower. It will not produce fruit otherwise. Be aware your pepper plant may not produce fruit for the first three years and it must be at least 70 degrees F. Pick the red fruits off the vine, boiling them in water for 10 minutes. After they turn black, spread them out on a paper towel. Lay them in the sun (in or outside depending on the season) for five days. To crack them, you can lay them on foil and use a meat mallet to crush them. Or, you can pour them into a pepper mill, which crushes them as you twist.

University Hospitals as an Anchor Institution
Teaming with community partners over the past decade, University Hospitals of Cleveland (UH) created its "Anchor Institution" strategy aimed at addressing core city needs by creating jobs, stimulating the economy, and empowering urban residents to take ownership of their communities and futures. UH has committed to historically excluded minorities and diverse contractors in construction opportunities; to buy local and support diverse suppliers; and create and nurture innovative nonprofits to boost educational and economic activity. For example, through this effort, the Evergreen Cooperatives established four worker-owned companies, resulting in nearly 100 living-wage jobs with full benefits for inner-city residents; UH's Buy Local vendor preference encouraged their largest supplier to open a distribution center in Cleveland; and NewBridge Cleveland, a dual-mission nonprofit, trains underemployed adults for high-demand health care jobs and engages at-risk youth in after-school arts curricula to kindle a love for learning and education. UH partners include Living Cities and The Cleveland Foundation for support. To read more about this innovative program, see this brief summary [link].

What is music? What is a song (track?). The popular culture and masses seem to have their own ideas of what these questions refer to. Most of the time, this comes from what they have been brainfed by the establishment and/or what their friends or peers consider it to be. Those of us on the Fringe or in touch with the infinite universe have very different answers and interpretations to these questions. Sound as Art and Sound as Sculpture. Is a verse needed? Is a beat needed? No, these are elements that may be used but not conformed to. There is literally an infinite sound pallet in front of you physically, digitally, and in your mind.

Dollar steady after Fed minutes
The dollar was relentless Thursday as the Fed minutes left speculators shy of the lucidity they were looking for on U.S. financial approach.
The dollar record held over the 96 stamp, exchanging up 0.07% at 96.04 at 03:00 ET.
FOMC individuals supported the possibility of a steady fixing of strategy.
However, there was an absence of accord on when to begin the decreasing of the Fed's asset report.
There was additionally questions about the standpoint for expansion regardless of snugness in the work showcase.
The dollar plunged against the yen as financial specialists anticipate improvements after North Korea's trying of an intercontinental ballistic rocket.

In Fear of Muskrats
He does a great job of showing the right-wing's lack of moral fiber when it comes to issues like domestic terrorism and political consistency. He points out historic examples where their radicalism and willingness to court violence - especially when they disagree with the Democratic opposition - surges far beyond mere political paranoia.
He talks about the "simmering undertone of violence" in our politics today. That is something I feel strongly about too, and wish more mainstream politicians - especially Republicans - would talk about. Their angry assault-weapons-carrying-nut-jobs are a real threat. Instead, they brush them off as honest, harmless patriots. It's obviously more serious.
The right-wing penchant for violence is clear to most of us. We lived through eight years of Bush and other Republicans talking and acting like great patriots - true lovers of freedom and democracy, but the truth is far less simple. They act differently when out of power. Some seem willing to take power when out of power.
The Republicans seem to have plenty of enemies. Al-queda, Iraqi Sunnis, the Taliban, Europeans, the French, and Democrats. The list goes on and on it seems. They question everybody's loyalty, or at least those who disagree with them. Who but Republicans would actually go so far as to question the legal status of a legally elected Democratic president? I can see questioning the election itself, but the man's birth certificate? What the hell is wrong with them? Let's face it, there are no limits to their political paranoia.
Frank Rich does a great job of describing the Republican inconsistencies of the past. He talks about how they have created an atmosphere of fear, where even the Secret Service feels militarily threatened by the right-wing nuts. Short of the radical Black Panthers back in the sixties, I can't remember guns being wielded at rallies. As far as I know Code Pink never carried guns. Purses maybe.
It's clear that most Republicans are tribal in their politics. They're only happy if their tribe is in power. If not, they see themselves more as the provocateurs, or worse, saboteurs. Possibly even political terrorists?
There is plenty of evidence. Congressman Wally Herger (R-CA) of Northern California had one of his constituents scream out "I'm a right-wing terrorist" at one of his rallies last week. Supposedly the Republican crowd applauded loudly in support while Congressman praised the individual for being a great patriotic American. That is scary people, and it's happening more and more.
Even the Bush Homeland Security Department issued security threat assessment reports warning of a rise of "violent right-wing extremism" once "Obama takes power." Sounds like foreshadowing to me. Subsequent assassinations and attempted assassinations have proven those warnings correct. Despite Republican demands for departmental apologies, we Democrats are more concerned about who will be next.
Whether it's FOX "News," Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Neil Covuto, Michael Steele, Glen Beck, Sarah Palin, Ann Coulter, Laura Ingram, or so many others, the right-wing is out-of-control and threatening the left with violence and retribution on a daily basis these days.
It doesn't even seem to matter how many times we play their own words back to them, since they always deny they said it. Truth be damned.
The blogosphere is rife with it too. Right-wing bloggers scream bloody murder anytime the left wants to do anything the majority supports. The lies begin shortly thereafter and ultimately cloud the issue so much nobody knows their ass from a hole in the ground when the dust settles. My favorite is when they claim Democrats have no right to spend federal money, since "lefties" don't work or pay taxes according to them. They really believe it too. What a bunch of tards!
Since Bush left it's become clear that all money belongs to the right. They don't want us to spend ANY money. NONE! Despite our desire to improve fiscal responsibility in government, the Republicans allow us no flexibility. Everything must be revenue neutral these days - a standard the Republicans never held while in power.
It's true the deficit ballooned over a trillion dollars in the fiscal year since Bush left office (the bulk of it spent by Bush himself), but that number pales in comparison to the $7 trillion or so Bush spent during his eight years in office - perhaps more, since most hasn't been tallied yet. It's pretty clear the Republicans ruined the country, and now they want us to go against our election promises and plans, lower taxes for the rich, pay the bills (btw, impossible when you lower taxes on the rich), and shut the bloody hell up.
Sorry assholes, that's not going to happen. IF the Democrats grow a pair, we're going to fix what you people broke, and you're going to pay your FAIR SHARE for a change!
The waste and ruin of past Republican administrations be damned, for it seems all that matters to the right-wing is how to keep the left from spending any money or changing any policy until they get back into power. They don't want to work with us, just prevent us from working. Once they regain power, all bets are off once again.
It's incredible! Their arrogance is outrageous! Their ignorance profound.
We Democrats are trying to solve real problems affecting real Americans. Incredibly, instead of cooperation, the Republicans and their militia are trying to shut down our efforts by ANY and ALL MEANS necessary. They even talk about armed revolt. It's true. It's a frequent discussion on the Sean Hannity shows - TV and radio. It's often when that fat-sack-of-shit-toe-sucker Dick Morris joins him. I swear, that man is a human-swine hybrid. He makes me sick.
Frank Rich also talks about the the Democratic backbone issue we discussed here last week. Rich says that it "would be shameful...if they [Democrats] catered to a decimated opposition party that has sunk and shrunk to its craziest common denominator." My God I agree with that statement. He goes so far as to call the Republicans a "paper muskrat" denying them the more impressive "paper tiger" status. I would say they're more of a PAPER RAT!
In the end Frank Rich lays out a very good case for why we need to stop playing games with them. They're not worth our time. We need to acknowledge the political climate and start talking about what is right. If we keep compromising with Republican demands, who now only represent the "whites in Dixie and the less populated West," and negotiating like idiots, then we deserve to lose.
Speaking of toughness, Barney Frank seems to be the only one with enough melon balls to fight back these days. Let's be more like him people! :)
It's time to put Reaganomics to rest. It never worked! It's time to start talking about how well government-run programs work, and how the Republicans are lying to the American people. It's time get off defense and back on offense people! Obama and the Democrats need to remember who put them in power, and stop being afraid to talk about solutions from a Democratic perspective.

If I remember correctly you guys cried for 6 years because your party wasn't in power, the pot calling the kettle black...go figure.

GR, you missed the best part of the quote.
"If not, they see themselves more as the provocateurs, or worse, saboteurs. Possibly even political terrorists?"
Typical Republican, taking something out of context. I guess that is a big part of what makes us different. :)

Michael fabulous post! We can scream the truth til we are blue in the face, they just don't hear, they are deaf on all that is good and honest!

Thanks, Michael. Well said. I have nothing really to add, except nodding my head in agreement.
- August 25, 2009 at 12:05 PM
BTW, Michael, I too have written on the subject a couple of weeks ago.
The most potent in the Rich's article, I think, is the last sentence where he points out that Obama's efforts to be friendly and conciliatory toward wingnuts from the party of NO! are wasted at best, and a recipe for disaster, at worst.

Hey Boh did you happen to catch Howard Dean getting shut down at a town hall meeting and then calling the people Un-American and was confronted and denied he had said it, and you accuse Republicans of lying...don't tell me when he denied that he had said it that his denial was taking out of context.

Much of Matthew Craven's meticulous work exists as both colorful abstraction and surreal historical document. His transformation of images appropriated from history textbooks nudge and reconfigure the original historical narratives. And his modular treatment of familiar forms unexpectedly activates their hidden potential for abstraction. Painting, drawing, collage and installation are linked in Craven's practice through his fastidiously precise lines, which run across works and from project to project. Last week I caught up with the Brooklyn-based artist — whose work is currently in the group show Paper Chasers at Nudashank — to talk about his work, his influences, and time travel. Our conversation, and lots of images, after the jump. -Matthew Smith, D.C. contributor

TOP: Tracy Thomason (left) and Stacy Fisher (right), BOTTOM: Maria Walker. Installation views, The Shape Of Things To Come at NUDASHANK, Baltimore.
NUDASHANK's progressive bent can make most local commercial galleries seem downright uncouth. Arguably the crown jewel of Baltimore's thriving DIY artist-run spaces, NUDASHANK routinely showcases emerging artists that are on a firm upward trajectory, like Nick Van Woert, Matthew Craven, Alex Lukas, and Benjamin Edmiston (included in the current MFA Annual edition of New American Paintings).
Currently on view in NUDASHANK's expansive downtown space are the works of Brooklyn-based artists Stacy Fisher, Tracy Thomason, and Maria Walker, all of whom work at the intersection of sculpture and painting to varying degrees. Co-curated by gallery founders and co-directors Alex Ebstein and Seth Adelsberger (editions #45, #57, #75), The Shape Of Things To Come, a title with fateful connotations borrowed from a novel by H.G. Wells, is as airy as it is grounded in familiar materials and forms. —Matthew Smith, DC contributor

The best way to avoid traffic...Lauren George -
...is ABAX Fleet Control.
Traffic – is there anything more frustrating? There is never a good time to get caught in congestion or tied up in tailbacks. The average UK motorist spends 30 hours every year sat idle in traffic jams. If you drive in London, that figure rises to over 100 hours per year, significantly more than Los Angeles (81 hours), Washington D.C. (75), or New York (73).
With Government figures confirming that more vehicles are now driving on British roads than ever before, topping 31.7 million in 2016, the problem could we be set to worsen. Congestion is a major contributor to Transport for London submitting a £4 Billion road modernisation plan.
Of the 31.7 million vehicles on UK roads, nearly 1 million account for company car drivers, 5.5 million are commercial vehicle drivers and almost 3 million are vehicles from overseas. With the above drivers hitting traffic as part of their daily jobs, the UK economy can be seen to be losing 8.5 billion hours every year to traffic jams.
The ability to put an accurate price on this is well beyond this blogger. But even if we just assume an average salary of £10 per hour, we could be looking at a staggering loss of £85 billion per year.
What I can offer though is some great advice on how to help businesses avoid traffic.
How do I avoid traffic?
1 – Timing. Adjusting the hours of operation to avoid the AM and PM rush hours. 9am meetings are great for office-based staff, but those 'on the road' will tell you that have to add a significant amount of time on to the journey to account for the traffic.
2 – Use TMC traffic functions on your radio or sat nav. Local radio stations issue regular live updates throughout the day. Having these updates play across your favourite stations can be irritating – but they provide valuable information as to the potential trouble ahead. Most modern satellite navigation units now come with a traffic feature as standard.
3 – Install and learn to master GPS telematics – Don't think of this as tracking. The data supplied within a telematics system can provide some of the most valuable insight as to where efficiencies can be increased. The data runs deep – become a master.
How does GPS telematics help avoid traffic?
ABAX customers receive some of the most in-depth but usable information from their telematics reports. On average, customers see a 20% reduction in the running costs of their fleet. To see what has happened and ask the question 'how can we improve this' is driving customers forward into the modern age.
But for a fleet manager or ABAX customer, it isn't all about looking back at what has happened. People should be able to look ahead and take decisive actions. ABAX work with closely with Google to provide a pinpoint accurate, live-map telematics system that incorporates Google's live traffic data.
By using a simple colour overlay for the road network in the UK and Europe, fleet managers can see delays well before their vehicles hit trouble. This gives the ability to contact the driver quickly and directly from the tracking system, advising drivers of an alternative route.
How does Google predict traffic?
Business Insider recently released a video of how Google Maps predict traffic. If you have an android phone or an iPhone with Google Maps open and location services enabled, the app anonymously sends real-time data back to Google.
This information is used to calculate how many vehicles are on the road and how fast they are moving. The more people using the app, the more accurate the traffic data. The nature of the system makes it incredibly good at detecting traffic quickly. As traffic builds, speeds reduce, drivers bunch up allowing Google's algorithms to detect a lot of GPS data being transmitted from a particular area.
Google keeps a history of traffic patterns on specific roads so it can predict what traffic will be like at a specific time and maps will tell you why it gave you a specific set of directions to help develop your trust in the app.
Don't get caught in a jam – contact ABAX today to see how we can help your business navigate the problem.
