A 2.4-mile swim. A 112-mile bike ride. A 26.2-mile run. Only the world's best athletes have earned the privilege of tackling these grueling distances at the Ironman World Championship triathlon in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
But this month, 82 MIT students and staff are suiting up in swim caps, bike shorts and running sneakers to join the iron elite. But they won't travel to Hawaii — and they don't have to worry about the Ironman's strict cut-off time of 17 hours to finish the race. Instead, these Cambridge-based athletes have a little extra time to complete their epic fitness journeys.
Participants in the MIT Tri-Challenge will have nearly 30 days — from Sept. 12 to Oct. 8, the day of the actual Ironman World Championship — to swim, bike and run the distances of the world's most prestigious triathlon.
Using variety to keep students motivated to exercise is one of the main goals of the Tri-Challenge, says Stephanie Kloos, director of member services and fitness for MIT's Department of Athletics, Physical Education and Recreation (DAPER). "A lot of times we hear that students are tired of doing the same old thing," Kloos says. "We're giving students a chance to try something fun."
"I definitely find it motivating," says Stacy Maheras '11, a first-year graduate student who is participating in the Tri-Challenge. "I hadn't really done a lot of swimming at the [Zesiger] Center, and now that I'm doing the swim portion, I kind of want to keep doing it."
When it came to cardio, Maheras rarely strayed from the elliptical machine. But after the Tri-Challenge, Maheras says she would continue swimming and running as well.
"I haven't actually had to run since middle school," she says. "Now that I know I can run, I might sneak some running in there along with the elliptical just to mix it up a bit."
While the biking portion is not her favorite, Maheras says she has enjoyed the experience of trying new exercises. "It's nice to be able to take advantage of all the amazing facilities."
DAPER Intern Katrina Dryja developed the event and will also be following students' tracking sheets up until the deadline. The first 50 finishers will receive medals.
This year's Tri-Challenge was the first opportunity for MIT students to use the pools, streets and sidewalks of Cambridge to complete the Ironman distances in an organized setting, but it wasn't the first time DAPER challenged students to simulate a major athletic event. Last year, dozens of students took part in the "Tour de DAPER," in which they biked legs of the famous French bike race on the much flatter streets of Greater Boston.
Two years ago, students participated in "Hiking the Cape." They used various forms of physical activity to log the distance between MIT and Provincetown, without ever having to face the notorious Bourne Bridge traffic.
DAPER also supports a number of annual self-directed fitness challenges. "Maintain No Gain" keeps students active during the often weight-inducing Thanksgiving to New Year's period. The perennially popular "Get Fit Challenge" encourages community fitness for a 12-week period between February and April.
Although DAPER chose the grueling Ironman Triathlon to emulate, Kloos says that the event was designed to motivate, not intimidate. "There's really no pressure," she says. "Students are vested because they want to stay healthy."

IK Multimedia, the leading music technology company, in collaboration with Audyssey®, a leader in consumer and professional audio products, today announced Version 2 of IK Multimedia ARC Advanced Room Correction System for Mac/PC DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations). ARC is the first acoustic correction system that combines a measurement microphone, measurement software AND a correction plug-in formost popular DAWs to improve the acoustics and sonic reliability of your studio.
ARC works by measuring your room using the included measurement microphone and measurement software and then generates an algorithm to provide a correction of your room's acoustic problems that you can apply to your mix using the included plug-in. You canrecord and mix with confidence knowing that what you hear from your speakers is a faithful representation of how your music will translate to the outside world.
With thousands of installations since 2007, the first version of ARC has been put to use in every possible real-world situation. This experience, along with user feedback from all over the world, has been carefully considered during the Audyssey® update of the MultEQ® technology that powered the first version of ARC to now provide a new, even more accurate version, MultEQ® XT32, included in this new version of ARC.
MultEQ® XT32 gives the new ARC 2 an even higher-resolution EQ adjustment – especially in the extreme low frequencies where correction is usually needed the most along with amore natural and smooth midrange and high frequency performance – a combined L/R correction for high-quality control room optimization and customizable target curves so you can shape the final response of your monitors. All of these new features are nicely packaged in a completely new interface featuring a new Monitor Control panel interface for optimized control.
Better Correction: 4X greater resolution – ARC 2 features enhanced resolution across the entire frequency spectrum including 4 times greater resolution in the lower frequencies where room distortions typically occur. ARC effectively flattens the low-end frequency response – even in the most unbalanced rooms – and also improves the mid and high frequency ranges to make the correction process totally transparent with clear and precise frequency response.
Streamlined Measurement Process – The new MultEQ® XT32 algorithm in ARC 2 provides greater resolution with fewer measurements allowing you to get a better degree of accuracy faster. Now only 7 measurements are needed for the software to calculate accurate corrections to your listening environment.
Mix for Multiple Devices – ARC 2 now provides the ability to mix for multiple devices with the new "Alternate References" feature. This makes it possible to intentionally shape the sound of the monitoring setup to simulate speakers like LCD TVs, club PA systems, car audio systems, radios, etc.
"Monitor Control" Panel – ARC has a new Monitor Control panel interface that provides you with the most frequently used control features: a big main volume knob to set your listening level, a DIM switch with an adjustable level, a MUTE switch and a listening "MODE" selector that can be toggled between standard Stereo, Mono or Side for quick reference checks. This additional collection of tools gives you a familiar, flexible control room-style workflow for a superior listening experience and improved accuracy for mixing and mastering applications.
ARC 2 New Features:
· Completely redesigned interface for improved usability
· 4X greater resolution improves critical low-endresponse
· Smoother, more natural sound in the midrange and high frequencies
· New combined L/R correction option maintains focus in perfectly symmetrical control rooms
· New customizable target curves now can match engineers' personal timbre tastes
· New "Alt References" templates mimic the sound of consumer listening devices like car systems, speaker boxes, etc. allowing the engineer to test how mixes translate on different systems
· New Monitor Control panel interface streamlinesworkflow
· Fewer measurements now provide higher quality results and shortens set-up time
· Measurements can be saved and used for multiplecorrection set-ups
Pricing and Availability:
ARC 2 is now shipping from IK Multimedia and its network of professional music resellers worldwide at a price of $299.99/€249.99 (excluding taxes)
User of the previous version of ARC can update to the new software online in the IKstore at a special limited price of only $99.99/€84.99 (excluding taxes) good until August 31, 2012, after that the price will go up to $149.99/€124.99(excluding taxes).

Perhaps you've been playing a ton of Pro Evo Soccer, but haven't been that impressed by the series in the past few titles. That could change very quickly according to news directly from Leipzig and the German Games Convention. Acccording to Konami's Press Conference, everything has been revamped in Pro Evo Soccer 2009, including the player models, crowd and uniforms. The designers spent a lot of additional time making sure that PES is much more fun to play, as well as easier to control. In fact, it was pointed out that players will be able to perform dribble movements with the D-pad alone without using other buttons.
PES 2009 will also feature a new Become A Legend mode where you can relive the career of your favorite soccer player. You'll take that player from his start as a rookie and lead him through every game and milestone of that player's life, with the mode only ending when you eventually retire. Pro Evo Soccer 2009 is scheduled to be released in October 2008.

Biblical inscription
Biblical inscription
What do we know?
The silver gilt strip bearing a Biblical inscription in Latin is one of the most significant and controversial finds in the Staffordshire Hoard.
Rivet holes show that it was originally fastened to another, larger object. We are not yet sure what this was, but it might have been something like a reliquary or the cover of a Bible. A decorative stone, possibly a garnet, was set into the now empty mount at one end of the strip, whilst an animal head adorns the other end.
Incised into each face of the strip is a verse from the Latin Bible (Numbers 10:35). The text is slightly different on the two sides, but it is clear that the outer side is the most important one since the incisions for the letters have been filled with a dark, silver compound known as niello. There are two spelling mistakes in the Latin.
This suitably warlike outer inscription reads (mis-spellings bolded and underlined):
'Surge domine et disepentur inimici tui et fugent qui oderunt te a facie tua'
The text should read:
'Surge domine et dissipentur inimici tui et fugiant qui oderunt te a facie tua'
When translated, the inscription reads "rise up, o Lord, and may thy enemies be scattered and those who hate thee be driven from thy face".
Michelle Brown, Professor of Medieval Manuscript Studies, has suggested the style of lettering dates from the seventh or early eighth centuries. The relatively crude lettering may have been the work of someone more used to writing on wax tablets.
BMAG Accession number: 2010.0138K0550
PMAG Accession number: 2010.LH.10.K0550
What might it have been used for?
The exact use for the Biblical inscription is not yet known, but it could have been used for decoration of Christian items.

The news throughout all Nashville sports media in the last off-season was the unfortunate departure of Ryan Suter. The Predators looked to Roman Josi to step into the sizable hole left by Suter and he did a fantastic job. The main issue wasn't the stop-gap of losing one half of the dynamic duo, it was the trickle-down effect on the other two defensive lines.
This off-season, the Predators have more than enough room to start filling in their roster with players of a higher caliber instead of going to the cupboard year after year. Islanders captain, defenseman Mark Streit, has also said he doesn't want to return to the organization. The issue is money, something the Predators will presumably not be short on going into the 2013-2014 season.
Mark Streit had 27 points this year (six goals, 21 assists) and turned it on in the playoffs with a two goal, three assist outburst in six games. He consistently ranks amongst the top defenseman in points scored year after year:
2006-2007 – 34th – 36 points
2007-2008 – 3rd – 62 points (Zidlicky 49 points)
2008-2009 – 7th – 56 points (Weber 53 points)
2009-2010 – 8th – 49 points (Weber 43 points)
2010-2011 – N/A – injured
2011-2012 – 9th – 47 points (Weber 49 points)
2012-2013 – 14th – 27 points
Points aren't everything; the consistency of Weber's offensive output combined with stellar defensive play is what gives him Norris consideration more often than not. Streit can put up a ton of points, quarterback a power play better than most defenseman in the NHL, but he does falter a touch in the defense department.
With a host of points in those years, Mark Streit is a combined -41 over the last two years. Even though many critics believe this to be a useless stat, it does point to some concern over his defensive capabilities. Yet, another defenseman that had a lopsided minus level for his career, Hockey Hall of Famer and new Predators assistant coach Phil Housley, proved that a combustible offensive output can overshadow defensive lapses. His smaller frame, similar to Streit's, allowed for quick transitions up the ice with the speed to get into the offensive zone, creating shooting lanes to unleash a slapshot from the points and faceoff circles. Streit has intangible influence as well as his offensive-minded play. He has proven leadership as captain of the Islanders and led by example in the playoffs. Partnering with a classic stay-at-home defenseman like Kevin Klein could make for a great first/second line defensive unit with Weber and Josi on the first pair. When the Predators go on the power play, Striet can quarterback the second unit with either Blum, Ellis or Bartley and fire rockets at the goalkeeper. Speaking of Ellis, another smaller framed defenseman that has had trouble adjusting to the expectation of being a highly rated draft pick, Streit could become a great mentor for the younger players and snap them out of the drought that plagued the third defensive line all last season.
So, what remains to be done? It seems that Streit wants around $5.5M+ and three to four years on the contract. He's no spring chicken either at 35 years old and only 24 other defensemen are older than Streit and still playing. Would it be worth taking a shot at Streit for his offensive prowess and leadership? Are there other defensemen coming out in free agency that the Predators should go after? Should the Predators stay in-house with the emergence of Victor Bartley and keep trying with Blum, Ekholm and Ellis?

WE'VE dragged one of Britain's major crime practitioners in for questioning. Multi-award-winning Ian Rankin is the creator of Edinburgh detective inspector John Rebus, the tenacious but chippy hero of bestsellers such as Black and Blue, Fleshmarket Close and Resurrection Men. The character was turned into a series by STV with first John Hannah and then Ken Stott portraying him. ITV filmed Rankin's standalone novel Doors Open in 2012. After retiring Rebus in Exit Music, he introduced his readers to Malcolm Fox in The Complaints, before bringing Rebus back in 2012's Standing in Another Man's Grave.
Edge of Darkness.
Hill Street Blues.
I don't watch much TV. Other media seem to get in the way. I find myself stockpiling DVD box sets for that elusive rainy day.
Top TV cop has to be Jack Regan. No, wait – Columbo. Or Jane Tennison…
Which unfilmed book/character should be made into a TV drama?
I'd love to see Adrian McKinty's Troubles-era Northern Ireland books on TV or film.
I never have a clear idea of my main characters' faces and physiques so it's hard for me to say who
the perfect actor would be. Sean Connery once told me that if he'd been 20 years younger he'd have jumped at the chance to play Rebus.
I thought TV made a right hash of Liza Cody's terrific Anna Lee books.
The Sopranos probably edges it, despite the ending.
Never a huge fan of Agatha. So it has to be Sherlock. I was very impressed by the modern reworking of the character and stories.
Ooh, tough. Branagh is always watchable, even when not doing very much. But I have to plump for the original, don't I?
I like both, but I'm feeling patriotic, so I'll say UK. Prime Suspect, Life on Mars, Cracker – all British, all class.
To be comprehensive, it would be a very long list. It would include Ruth Rendell, Lawrence Block, Leo Malet, Michael Connelly, but also Pascal Garnier (who I've just discovered), etc etc…
Pascal Garnier's The Islanders. Is it crime? Psychological suspense? His books are like non-Maigret Simenon novels.
Again, there are so many: Muriel Spark, Thomas Pynchon, Charles Dickens, Robert Louis Stevenson…
The Third Man. Or The Godfather. Or The Maltese Falcon. Maybe The Long Good Friday. Or Get Carter…
It would have to be Rebus. He knows the territory and has a pretty solid record.
• Ian's latest Rebus novel is Saints of the Shadow Bible, which is out now in paperback. For all the latest on him, check out ianrankin.net

Product Sent for Review I Bought It
Today for Makeup Wars we're sharing our current favorite fall manicures. I have a confession, I'm a girl with
hundreds thousands of nail polishes, and I haven't been wearing much. I've been busy running around like a crazy person and really haven't even had time more than than a few manicures!
But, the ones that I've done have all been the same 2 polishes, which you can see here. I've mostly been wearing them separately, but they do work together!
I'm a big purple girl, and my favorite polishes right now are Nails Inc Bond Street and CoverGirl Violet Flicker.
The Bond Street is Gel Effect Polish. This polish is meant to be a little longer lasting with more shine than a usual manicure. I have noticed that I get a day or two of longer wear, though I'm not sure it is any shinier (my normal Seche Vite top coat is already really shiny). There's also a plumping effect, which is apparently the extra layer effect that you'll get on your nails with gel manicures.
The polish is very pigmented and I only need 2 thin coats, so I haven't noticed much plumping. And I have to admit that I find the plumping to be a strange thing to be wanting. I really don't like having such thick nails. It must just be me!
The CoverGirl Violet Flicker is from their new Hunger Games collection. I was lucky enough to see a mini-display at Meijer a few weeks ago right after it was put out, though already only these 2 colors were left. I've only seen empty displays since that time! This is a really pretty color in person, the picture doesn't do it justice. It's a very pretty purple with multi-color shimmer and glitter. I need 3 thin coats to get it opaque and due to the glitter it is hard to get off. I have to use the foil method for nail polish removal to get the glitter off of my nail.
What colors have you been wearing this fall?

They are both the same to me.
Surely It looks better on print, but I can't afford it yet.
So I just read it digital.
I'm sure most people would prefer the print copies. After all, there is a certain feeling to having the physical object sort of like an ownership pride of some sort....can't describe into words. Also, knowing that buying the print version ensures the continuation of the work that you like, since most Mangas' continuation are attach to how well they sell above anything else. But don't confuse my words, Free Fan Scalation Groups have done more than any company to advertise and promote Manga in the U.S. and the world, Most of the time doing it faster and better quality (Translations & image) than even the ones that are licensed by companies here in the U.S. They have attracted a new generation of fans that otherwise would never know Manga even existed. Also, they bring to the world a large amount of work that would have never seen the light outside of the country of origin, because more popular work doesn't give it enough space to grow or simply fans in the origin country can't relate to the work but in some other part of the world is seen as genius or interesting.
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
Can't believe I have so much to say about this and I'm not even an Scalator or anything of the sort.
In the end it depends on the willingness to overlook certain aspect in either print or online like: Legality, variety, availability, etc...
I'm not online that often, but I do reply to every message ASAP
Assuming that the same manga was legally available for both options, I'd still plunk money down on the print copy. There's just something about holding a book... that physicality, that intimacy, which is missing when you read from a screen. I'm the same with books vs e-readers. Having that physical sensation in your hands.... there's just something special about it. It's like losing your virginity; and pixels on a screen can't ever replace that.
I rarely read manga online. It tends to give me a headache. I'm really lucky to have a used book store nearby that gets a lot of good manga in nice shape. I've managed to pick up almost a hundred volumes of various series for $1-$2 each. If I really want something I'll buy it new, but for the most part new print copies of manga are too expensive for me. I'm not opposed to previewing manga online before spending a lot of money on it. The only problem is that sometimes I'm tempted to just read the whole thing online and not buy it at all. I have a hard time justifying reading an entire series online if it's possible to obtain in legally. But then the headache kicks in and I realize that it will be much more enjoyable if I just buy a print copy.
Reading manga online AND for free could impose a little problem on the legimate holder of the publication rights... if something is licensed in your region and you liked it... buy it! A little bit support is needed to keep manga flourish, you know^^
Searching a demoness from hell or goddess from heaven...
i definitley prefer to read my manga print or even digitally bought, i do my best to support the authors where i can. but that being said if its a series that hasnt been licensed or is hundreds of chapter long i typically will read it online.
Thats kinda hard :T I love being able to feel the pages and oddly enough - I am a book sniffer. I love the smell of the pages. But it could be a hassle having to carry around more than one manga when you get done with one, when you could just download it or visit a website with the manga! But that also has some problems, buffering, or no wifi, dead battery, all SUCK when trying to read a manga online. But it's mostly free... hmmm..
Hiatus~ :T Sowwey..- Whyy?! Now that I have premium all I do is read manga now!~
I like having the physical book, just like I like having the physical DVDs for anime but that's just me. I mostly only read manga online if it's not released in English yet
Take it easy!
I prefer the print copies. Mostly because I love books, so holding them in my hands is much better. And because some of the translations online can be really bad. Unfortunately, I can't afford to buy alllll of my favorite manga lol.
I prefer print. I feel like I need that natural stopping point when the book ends to absorb wtf I just read. It's hard to do that online when you have the ability to just keep going and going.
These pretzels are making me thirsty
I don't mind reading online but I do prefer reading printed copies instead. I read online because, one I don't have money to buy every volume of my favourite mangas (I read fairy tail and it has 36 volumes and each volume price ranges) and two I get posted when a chapter comes out instead of having to wait 3-5 months for a volume to come out. But I like having a book in front of me and I can go anywhere and read it. Plus I don't need to be staring at a screen while I'm reading. After staring a screen for so long, I get a headache and my eyes hurt as well. But then again reading manga online is cheaper but it's not always better.
I'm sorry for this question, i'm not sure if it belongs here or not but can anyone help me out and tell me where I can buy manga and read it online? Thanks in advance.
I purchase any manga I read online once it's available where I live.
I like to collect my favorites so I can read them again.
So basically I prefer print
Hello, nice to meet you :)
Free is wonderful and very helpful, actually. But I collect books, so I still prefer to own a physical copy. (The free reading does help me decide upon what's really worth the money of buying, though.)
just wandering about...

01 A Beautiful Morning Click to play the song.
The bright sun was pouring through my window this morning. The birds were chirping. Sometimes nature cooperates on the days when you need it the most! I lay there not wanting to move and soak up all those bits of goodness and warmth. It made me think of my old gardens and the pleasure they brought me. The early spring crocus were always the first glimpse of spring! How I loved to see the flowers pop up just miraculously on their own. So, a morning such as today reminds me to be thankful for vision, health, and mobility….all the things that perhaps not all of us have or can do easily!
I've had this song on repeat in my car, (Sing You Back To Me – Trisha Yearwood) as if wishing these thoughts would make it all better. Crazy I know, but then again, who ever wishes for things that can really happen, that's the beauty of a wish….it's your dreams. When I wish, I wish BIG…everyone should, don't you think! It's a moment of escape from reality, a moment of hope, a moment when you think the impossible and dream that it might just happen. So, as I play this song (I'm not able to upload, it but will share it on FB, you should listen, it's just really beautiful!), over and over I might add, driving on the way to work and back home, thinking about things and wishing. I've been blue. And I need to better cope with things.
Aging isn't always an easy thing. Everyone has challenges I know, but sometimes others have way more than the rest! I always wonder, why this needs to happen. Why should anyone be subjected to such pains and sorrows that often old people have to live with. I know that it is part of life, but, it is one of the most heart wrenching things to experience seeing the ones you love suffering so.
I know these thoughts aren't really anything new, and perhaps this post is merely for my personal benefit, a way to help me cope, which by the way, isn't coming too easily. Everyday I need to pick myself up and brush myself off and find the courage to feel better, be grateful for all that I am blessed with and carry on. After all, I know, that if I don't take care of myself, I certainly can't be there for anyone else. And, that's important right now. When others really need help, we all need to be there for them. I so wish I could do more!
All these flowers, well I hope they bring you a bit of happiness, I'm sure all of us, for our own personal reasons could use a bit of EXTRA happiness in our daily lives!
So, this post has been a moment of personal healing and a bit of inspiration that I want to send to all of you! A day of sunshine and warmth, and a bit of love sent out to all of you with the hope of a good day ahead!
All these flowers are from my gardens over the years! I think the garden would be so healing right now…don't you? So, enjoy these photos…and listen to the music….just a nice way to start the day!
It's helpful too, that I have a hobby that is so healing to me! In my free time I do escape to my jewelry bench. This hobby is done strictly for my pleasure. I don't need to support myself with the income that I receive for the sales of my jewelry, so it is even more enjoyable as I work only when I am inspired….and pour into my creations! These are times filled with wonderfulness! I meticulously create something that I envision being loved by someone! That's really fun! So, it's fun for me and it's fun for others too! I am so HAPPY with my LindaGeez and LindaGeezToo Etsy shop! It has been a pleasure and I am happy that others seem to love it as well. My sales are great and I am quite grateful that I receive wonderful feedback! Stop by and see me! Send me a comment or a convo to me in my shop! I would love to hear from you! This is what keeps me going!
Love and Peace!
listen to the pretty music!

"About 10 years ago, when people were looking at the Microsoft brand, it probably wouldn't have been one of the first brands they would think of as being enterprise-ready," said Mich Mathews, senior VP-central marketing group at Microsoft. "Now, we are a major player."
Microsoft defines "enterprise ready" as the ability to deliver software that provides reliability, security, scalability and performance that the largest organizations require and expect.
The shift in brand reputation has been due in large part to marketing efforts that position Microsoft products-and the company in general-as being able to deliver on this enterprise proposition.
Internally, Microsoft has implemented new marketing processes that incorporate research on perceptions it is trying to change.
"Before we spend $1 on advertising, we do a thorough analysis on understanding what it takes to change perceptions with, say, an IT decision-maker," Mathews said.
Externally, Microsoft has launched new campaigns and marketing efforts that focus on changing perceptions in key areas such as security, software development and manageability of its platform and applications.
"If you look at the origins of Microsoft, it began with personal computing," said Matt Ross, president of McCann Worldgroup, San Francisco, and CEO-global Microsoft account for McCann, the company's agency of record.
"Now, we're talking about things like corporate databases and CRM systems for managing customer databases-systems that span an organization," Ross said.
"The role of marketing is to help communicate the reality of what the products and services are."
This year, McCann developed several campaigns for Microsoft products. For security, Microsoft launched a campaign that drove IT users to a Web site, where they could use an online risk assessment tool to detect security threats.
For Visual Studio, McCann created an online campaign with viral components that drove developers to an online community where they could share ideas.
For its new version of Office 2003, Microsoft launched a campaign called "New World of Work," which shows how the workplace has changed and demonstrates how Microsoft products meet the needs of today's worker.
Mathews said the key factor for Microsoft's brand shift is simple: "It was our products," she said. "It's the experience users are having with the products every day. Are they easy to use, and are they easy to manage? That is how the Microsoft brand has largely been established."

come to us we have nothing!
Come to us we have nothing!. This sarcastic comment by a mountain guide to a travel journalist was turned into an original heading in a Villgraten reportage in the Hamburger Zeit newspaper, and has now almost become a slogan. Such descriptions of Villgraten today seem to be as strange as what could be read 40 years ago in a village year book to mark the 700th anniversary of the community of Innervillgraten: What we have is little, and yet it is pleasingly much, the local tourist representative Ludwig Bachmann wrote in 1967. We see it as a good sign of the times, said Bachmann back then, if more and more people, and quite often spoilt and demanding guests, choose our valley as a place to stay.
Deliberately walking down a path is therefore not a new subject in the East Tyrolean "Side of the Side Valley", as critical folklorist Johannes E. Trojer once ironically named his home. This can also be seen in the first Villgraten promotional leaflet from 1958: What is missing in comfort is more than compensated by the splendid surroundings. Although there is a risk that this may sound tacky, it nevertheless became a touristic and economic guiding principle down to today in Villgraten combined with an ample portion of a spirit of resistance against recurring and new projects for developing skiing resorts and power stations.
Those seeking summer refreshment have been drawn since 1925 to the cramped village of Villgraten, with its two communities of Außervillgraten (840 inhabitants) and Innervillgraten (1,050), to its slopes angled at up to 70 percent, and colonised with impressive wooden houses. Thanks to a strategy developed in the 1990s by those fostering regional traditions, tourism and Alpine Associations, the valley has above all remained a destination for hikers and mountaineers, and more recently has become a special attraction for skiing tour enthusiasts and cross-country skiers. This path should continue to be maintained by making the lodges of the alpine village of Oberstaller (1.883 m ) winter-proof and setting up a cross-country skiing trail there.
This development is reinforced economically by sheep farming, which has been intensified over the past 20 years. The Innervillgrater mountain sheep farmer and ex-mayor Josef Schett has performed some pioneering work here together with Alois Mühlmann from the Hauben guesthouse Gannerhof. A network was created around Schett's sheep's wool processing company Villgrater Natur, along with the adjacent shop for local farm products, his insulation material company Woolin and the Ganner specialised in lamb meals, which ensures an income for many sheep farmers in East Tyrol and provides guests with special high-quality goods.

Ragged tongue, he hears you not. But night is long. Above him bends his branch still waving in the wind as if conducting vesper songs. In mock humility, beast is bowing, all deceit. All that heaves there, incomplete, hissing threat of darkness in monotonous lament. Nothing of you touches what he is. His back to you, he faces open sky. ''His fate,'' you cry, ''my hate has sealed! Eternity is unrevealed to him!'' Yet the branch still waves in perfect rhythmic arc - welcoming, welcoming - his music the trees are singing now the sand is singing the world hears it now, yes the whole world is awake to it . . .

One of our dear friends gave Zoe and Ashley a homemade clothespin doll kit last year, and they have spent many happy hours making dolls with it. So, when Zoe and Ashley were invited to a birthday party this weekend, we knew right away what we wanted to give this creative 8 year old girl =)
The kit includes:
* Some fabric remnants (remember the doll clothes will only be a few inches by a few inches when cut to size, so a little fabric goes a long way)
* Fast Grab Tacky Glue
* An assortment of ribbons and accessories
* Yarn for hair
* Pipe Cleaners for arms
* Clothespins
To make the hair we like to wrap some yarn around our fingers and lay it on a ribbon or more yarn, like this:
We also included a couple of dolls for examples, like the kit we received last year. Zoe picked out this inexpensive unfinished box with a handle like a purse. Her friend can paint and decorate the box herself. To "wrap" the present we tied a bow around the outside.

As KISS bassist Gene Simmons told Goldmine, there's "something about KISS, I don't want to say it's timeless, but it connected with a 5-year-old back in the '70s and it sure connects with a 5-year-old now."

Native American Hollywood history has long been guilty for the misinterpreted and shallow perception that most people had, until recently, about the Native American movie industry. No one can argue with the fact that movies and the entertainment industry influence the way people perceive other cultures. That is why old Hollywood productions that involved Native Americans as characters are guilty of portraying American Indians as savages. The main image of Native Americans that Hollywood exported to the entire world was that of half-clothed beasts who ran on their horses screaming and carrying hand-made dangerous weapons.
Things started to change in Native American Hollywood when Jay Silverheels, a Native American from Ontario, Canada and member of the Six Nations on The Grand River reservation, became a TV star. He was the first American Indian actor. After the achieved fame he started helping other fellow Native American actors master their craft. That is why he founded the American Indian Actors Workshop.
The 1970's marked the period when Native American actors began portraying American Indians more accurately and more authentically. One of the main films that showed First Americans as original and fascinating characters was 'Little Big Man'. Chief Dan George was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars for the part he played in that movie, making him the first American Indian to achieve such a performance.
Native American Hollywood has to focus in the future on more original Native American stories so that first American actors can receive opportunities for acting. Great American Indian actors such as Graham Greene, Wes Studi, Raoul Trujillo, and Adam Beach have become known because they were given the opportunity to play true-to-life characters that reflect the American Indian heritage. In the end, it is all about the fact that an Native American actor should receive an award for playing a Native American role.

Optex purchases Security Enclosures Ltd.
LOS ANGELES-Optex Europe has bought outdoor detection sensor company Security Enclosures Ltd., a deal that further propels Optex's plans to integrate its sensors in the CCTV market.
Security Enclosures, based in Surrey, England, is known for its CCTV housings, its Redwall range of medium and long-range PIR detectors and the Redwatch detector camera combination. Optex, on the other hand, specializes in indoor sensors and short-range outdoor sensors.
"It broadens our applications and increases our stance in the market," according to Courtney Harris, marketing coordinator for Optex, based here.
Besides expanding Optex's outdoor protection line, it also enables the company's sensors to be used to activate outdoor CCTV cameras, said Rob Blair, president of Optex Inc.
The purchase price for Security Enclosures was not released.
Harris said Optex will carry Security Enclosure's pro-duct line.
He did not have a timeframe for when the line will become available because some product training remains for the com-pany's employees.
Optex is a subsidiary of Optex Co. of Japan.

We are also grateful that members of the Toronto Police Service will be onsite to help run the event for bike safety along with Evergreen who will be providing bike fitting and light tune ups. The OCA has also stepped in, donating bingo funds to support bells, helmets, and locks that will be handed out to recipients of these bikes.

With over 1000 registered members spanning its Leaside, High Park, & Oakville Chapters, the MGCC provides a very inclusive and welcoming environment for all cyclists, new and old, to come out and enjoy the benefits of riding a bike.

Who Needs The Truth When A Lie Works Better?
Well it appears that I'm not the only one around these parts that's had an EPIC fail of the writing muse to show up. There's a lot and I do mean a lot to talk about lately, but dang if nothing really moved me until this came along: Tale Of Hub Teacher's Job Struggle.
This outright lie in my opinion really shows how liberals feel in that any means is justified by the desired end result. Ogabelini really hiked up his skirt here and showed us all his deep red panties and what he's capable of. A hallmark of tyranny is the use of misdirection, lies and "redirecting" the truth of information to support their goals. We certainly can call out the leftists on things like this, but in their minds that's beside the point as there is a higher truth that must be served. In this case specifically, why was a lie necessary, there's millions of citizens out there that are unemployed? Or was it necessary to create a fiction to demonstrate the public sector as being affected as much as the rest of the country. We all know that the public sector is where the largest job growth is occurring, yet Obama would have us believe they need the most/more 'stimulus' spending with bullshit tales. One would think with the first stimulus being an EPIC failure, that the lie of Keynesian economic theory would finally be dead. But nooooo….these fucks will take that to their graves as being an unassailable truth. It's just that we haven't reached the point where it kicks in. In other words there's a magic number of dollars that's needed to make it really work. Let them continue to lie, we the People are on to them and nothing will ever be the same in politics, EVER. Regardless of where we're heading ultimately, a revolution in the way we govern ourselves is afoot, whether that involves violence or not, is up to the real Higher Power. The biggest loser in this prevarication is probably Mr. Baroz, the alleged struggling teacher. He was totally rolled by Obama in this, yet he believes it was ok because it spoke to that higher truth. Jeez, can't he see he's a whore as well as a useful idiot.
Who needs actual facts, when a lie will do? Liberals always seem to have an issue with the truth, they are desperate, angry people. The 'New Camelot' they expected to arise after the 'history' they made, turned into Mordor, replete with Sauron at the helm.

I've been so sick these past two days, but I'm making an effort to keep on my blog schedule and today is Friday, which means I need to post something. I decided on a favorites list.
I know this year isn't over, but these are some of the books I've read this year that have made my FAVORITES shelf.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (Young Adult, Sci-fi) – Just got around to reading this book and really the buzz it's been getting is well deserved. The characters are interesting, the writing crisp and clean, and the world sucks you in. Really good book. I'll get around to buying the others in the trilogy soon, so I can't say how they compare, but the 1st on is excellent.
Bashed By Rick Reed (M/M Thriller, suspense) – This book was like watching a train wreck, in a good way. The stage in set and you sit back and wince as you watch as it all unravels around one young character. The characters are very human, which is what I loved about this book.
Cut and Run By Madeleine Urban & Abigail Roux (M/M Crime-Mystery, Romance) – Okay, I'm in LOVE with this series. The characters are so alive and vibrant. They play off each other so well. They're two damaged people and I love that about them. I can't wait for the newest in the series to come out next month.
Sweet as Sin By Inez Kelley (Contemporary, Romance) – Yeah, you won't see many contemporary romance making my favorites list but Inez Kelley is one hell of a writer. Sweet as Sin is far darker than most contemporary romance, so don't let the traditional cover throw you. The hero is one dark dude, but, as usual, Inez really does a beautiful job telling his story. A fantastic read.
Risking Eternity by Voirey Linger (M/M, paranormal, Romance) – This on is a sweet little novella about an angel. It's book two set in her angel world, and (in my opinion) better than one. No sophomore slump here. This book really helps flesh out a world only touched on in book one.
That's in for now, I'll make a more complete list around the first with all the delicious stories I've found this year.
Have a great weekend.

Throwing a graveyard party for a large group of strangers is the most irresponsible thing ever. That graveyard is sure to be trashed.
I don't see anything wrong with throwing yourself a birthday party, but asking others to finance said party and bring gifts are both very tacky!
The only thing tackier about throwing your own birthday party and asking outright for gifts is having the party on the graves of the departed. That's just disgusting to me. It's like dancing on someone's grave.
Yikes indeed!
Given the location, I took this as a joke and would treat it as such. The tackiness and greed of it know no bounds if it is for real.
FMI Feed Me Indulgently?…
Given that ladycrim has confirmed that this was an open invitation and that it was originally posted on an Internet forum, I have to assume that either the invite writer was a huge idiot to invite an unknown number of people, and strangers at that, to their home or that they really did plan on having a birthday party in a graveyard.
A nice, quite gathering could be OK. I can see a family doing that before or after visiting a grave. But a birthday party? I'm with Amanda; it's way too close to dancing on someone's grave. If it were just a picnic it'd be fine for it to be potluck. But it's a birthday party. If they're already going to be bringing gifts then you shouldn't also make them bring the food.
Gah, this is just all wrong!
FMI….for more Information?
I wouldn't take the request for gifts too seriously judging by the informal inviation. But still, its tacky
Wow. This is the wrongest invitation I've ever seen.
"Hey people I don't know in person, or at all! I'm going to be hanging out in a graveyard. Dress up and come bring me food and presents and we'll party!"
A thousand times no.
Wait a minute… I feel so foolish!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought that invite thingy was a joke that the ADMIN made herself to give us a laugh.
Good God!
Well maybe they just decorated their own yard to look like a graveyard. You know, like kids might invite other kids to a "circus birthday" that wasn't AT the circus, just circus-themed. The cemetery on the invitation isn't necessarily a pic of where they're going to be.
Given that it is dated in October, I am tempted to think it is a pre-Halloween, themed party, and hence called a "graveyard party". The picture is not necessarily that of the venue (usually one doesn't send only the picture of the place where the party will be held, even if it is the most famous location in the town rather than a tombstones in a graveyard). But the "bring gifts" part is very tacky. Except for the "bring me gifts, it is my Birthday" part and that it was in an open forum, I can imagine this invitation from some of my friends who love throwing themed parties.
The 'bring me gifts and food' is just plain rude. As far as having a party in a graveyard….the people are dead. I doubt they care…..It's their living loved ones that should be taken into consideration. I seriously doubt they would be amused at the prospect of partying going on right on top of Uncle Eugene.
A graveyard picnic is usually an activity to celebrate the life of the deceased. Shockingly it is supposed to be a picnic (read as: middle of the day to early afternoon). Sometimes to show some deceased that they weren't forgotten. More often than not it is for people who are not related to the host(ess) or who have died long before the attendees could have met them. Activities are things like headstone etchings and maintaining the plots and occasionally a scavenger hunt. To have one as a birthday celebration is BEYOND tacky. To have one after dark is inconsiderate. This entire event shows a complete and utter lack of respect to the deceased and their families.

It has definitely been a disappointing start to my season; missing the cut in Pebble was very annoying but another missed cut this week in L.A. shows that I have been concentrating on the wrong things for the last few weeks. The funny thing is that I was actually a lot better here in Riviera but just not good enough. During the first few weeks I have spent too much time working on things and not enough time getting myself tournament ready. I realized this at Pebble Beach and tried to get myself to do the right things here this week but it was a struggle; I wasn't able to really get ready properly for the week. I definitely made a lot of improvement from last week but I know that there is a lot more to do before the WGC Accenture Match Play starts on Wednesday.
Coming here this week I was hopeful for a decent performance as I had done well here the last two years but I always knew that it would be a struggle as I had done so much wrong in the past two weeks. The fact that I liked the course so much did at least give me hope but that was all as it turned out. I ended up shooting two over par for the two rounds; one over in each. The funny thing is that I felt I played better and managed to do more things right in theses two rounds than I did in the previous two weeks. Over the two rounds I putted particularly badly; when I gave myself chances to make birdies I wasn't able to incorporate them as I lost a little bit of confidence over some putts. I had been working on my putting during the week as I hadn't putted well in Pebble; I figured out something with it but I wasn't able to get it into my putting straight away. I have always struggled with uphill right to left putts and it was the same this week. However I feel that I am decelerating on these putts and so causing me to miss them. I spent the week working on accelerating though them a bit more; it definitely seemed to help but I wasn't able to bring it onto the course. Hopefully I can get it into my game for next week.
There is not a lot to say about this week; I missed the cut and I am disappointed but I know what I have been doing wrong. I know that I have to forget about technical practice and get back to preparing for tournaments properly. That means more work on my mental side and getting my routines flowing; the one thing that I have to make sure I don't do is get caught up in the fact that I have missed two cuts in a row and feel that I have to practice harder. This is something that a lot of players get caught up in when things aren't going their way.
I am disappointed to have missed the cut but I am not worrying about it. I have one more event left before I am home for a few weeks so I am committed to getting myself in good shape for the start of the Match Play. Having missed the cut I decided to travel to Tucson on Saturday so as to get an extra practice round in on the course. I didn't get to see any of the final round as I was playing but looking at how it finished it must have been an exciting event. I am committed to putting the last three weeks behind me and getting myself back into swing of things starting at the Accenture.
Padraig's Tour Diary
My first two events here in the US have not gone as I would have liked, an average performance in Torrey Pines and then a missed cut at the AT&T. Coming over here I would have been looking to perform well at those events and coming here to Riviera for the Northern Trust Championship full of confidence. However this is not the case, I am still very unsure of my game and short of confidence as a result, but this is a tournament that I have performed well in over the past two season. Also it is a course that I particularly like and one where I really enjoy the challenge, so for this reason it is a good place to come to after the previous two tournaments as I will take some confidence from the last two years.
Even though I am short of confidence after the last couple of weeks, I actually didn't play too bad last week. My long game was far better than the previous week but my short game was quite poor. With this in mind I have spent a lot of time working on my putting and chipping. I arrived in L.A. on Monday night as I had a corporate outing on Monday morning; then spent Tuesday working mainly on my putting. I put in quite a few hours on the putting green trying to get more comfortable over my putts; in the end I figured out that I was moving a little at impact which meant that I was collapsing, causing me to start a few putts off line. This is something that I have come across before so it is not a hard thing to work on for me.
As I have played here for the last two years I didn't feel the need to play any holes on Tuesday. I know the course well so I felt that I was better off working on my short game and hitting a few shots on the range. I also got my irons bumped up a couple of degrees more upright as I hit a lot of my shots out of the toe last week. When I looked at my divots I also noticed that they were a little deeper in the toe area. I am pretty sure that this is down to the fact that my swing changes are coming to fruition and so my equipment will have to move with it. Wednesday I played the pro-am as usual and for the first eleven holes I was really struggling; I had so many things going through my head I couldn't get comfortable over any shot. On my twelfth tee I decided to go back to what I normally do; focus on my target and forget about any swing thoughts. When I did this I hit the ball far better. Generally at this time of the year I go through this sort of thing and after a few weeks I generally come to the same conclusion, "focus on my target."
Rivera Country Club is without doubt one of the best golf courses of the year; I would put this course in my top five courses in the US. I look forward to coming here every year; this is the sort of course that I love playing. The holes are tree lined and the rough is not the defence; the defence here are the greens which is always a test that I like. While the rough is not too heavy it is important that you are coming off the fairway as you need to have full control of your golf ball. There are a number of great holes on this course but my personal favourite is the tenth hole. It is a short par four that is comfortably drivable, infact it can be a three wood sometimes. However it is not a certain birdie or even par; the green is a narrow and long, one that if you hit it in the wrong spot you have no chance of keeping the ball on the green. Everyone is trying to hit it long left where the chip shot is much easier, but not simple. I would put this hole down as one of the best holes we play all year; any course I design will have a similar type hole on it.
With the form I am bring in it is hard to have any expectations; even though I am always struggling with my game at this time of year this year is a little worse than usual. I would love to be here when I am well into my season; it just comes a little too early in my season for me. I am happy that I figured out a couple of things in the last six holes of the pro-am but it still doesn't give me much confidence. I am really unsure as to what to expect and I feel a little bit like I am going to a lucky dip! I am starting with quite a bit of trepidation but as ever I will be trying my hardest and hopefully I can get myself into the shake up come Sunday evening.

User review on Hyundai Xcent written by ankita singh on 10 July 2015
ankita singh 's review on Hyundai Xcent SX 1.2 (O)
Year of Manufacture : 2014 | Driven no. of Kms. : 21000
- Pros: boot space
- Cons: Stiff suspension
What Syed has is absolutely right; the car has stiff suspension making it uncomfortable in roads full of jerkings. On the other hand Hyundai Xcent offers decent boot space enough for family weekends. The car has steering mounted controls which is really unexpected at such a price tag. The cabin is spacious and comfortable. Rear a/c vents make rear passengers comfortable in harsh weather conditions. The car is good for city rides.

SERIES: 5 Causes of Wedding Planning Stress - Part 4
Welcome Back! We're on Part 4 of the secret causes of wedding planning stress. We've already been through expectations of perfection, not knowing what you really want, and dealing with everyone else's expectations. This one is a doozy, because it can blindside you. It can mess with the foundations of the entire REASON for this celebration!
Fourth Major Stress Point: Ignoring Your Fiancé
It's really easy to get caught up in planning out your ideas for the wedding and ignore the fact that your other half has a say too, but that can only lead to one thing- a grumpy fiancé. Many couples experience an increased incidence of pre-marital spats as the planning progresses, and that can lead to all kinds of stress. Don't let this cause you to second guess- your partner's probably just feeling a little lonely! It's important to remember that the day is about *both* of you. If you're handling the bulk of the planning, you can tend to get giddy over teeny details…
Instead of forgetting all about your fiance's input, ask what they think! Include them in all the major decisions- otherwise, they're liable to think you're more interested in the wedding than in them! And of course that's not true, but if you're gushing more over the custom ribbon that just came in than you have over him lately- you can't blame him!
If he has concerns regarding something wedding-related, hear him out. Listening is an important skill to cultivate for the future.
Set aside time for the two of you to be together sans wedding planning. Go out to dinner (or cook together if you're budgeting), go for a walk, watch a movie and just be together. It will help you remember why you're getting married in the first place!

It has finally happened, and we knew it would
The APA, American Pharmaceutical Association, revealed today that "Pills Are Us," a pharmaceutical company in Southbend, Oregon, which is just South of Bend, Oregon, after seven years of exhaustive research and testing has developed a "prescription only" medication whose "side effects" far outweigh any benefits that might be received by the patient.
Harley DeFontaine, Director of New Products at PAU, when queried about the product revealed that recent test studies showed that the "placebo" taken by some in the study actually had more beneficial effects on the patients than the product being tested. DeFontaine stated, "There were a few side effects with the new product, some in the study showed a few signs of nausea, jaundice, headache, a burning sensation in the left foot, skin rashes, internal bleeding, low sugar, high blood pressure, bloating, and three of the ten test subjects were actually hospitalized, and one of the three was listed in critical condition. These results, basically, are rather standard for the industry, we have found."
Davis advertising of New York City is currently producing a television commercial for the product which may be unique to the industry. The side effects of the product are so extensive that a full thirty minute commercial is considered, with thirty seconds devoted to the benefits of the product.
DeFontaine added, "With that many side effects, it must be good for something, we just don't know what, as of now."

In most countries this is not necessary since end-users/consumers can not be expected to understand the internal complex workings of the products they purchase and what patents they could possibly violate. Patent violations are the responsibility of the manufacturer and/or distributor.

When battling any Psychic type, remember that their biggest
weakness is to Bug Pokemon. A move like Pin Missile does wonders, but any
other non-Fighting moves work well, too. And remember, never send a Fighting
or a Poison (or Ghost) Pokemon into battle with a Psychic. Luckily for Psychic
Pokemon, few Bugs actually know any decent Bug techniques -- but if you're
stuck using a Psychic type against a powerful Bug, remember that moves like
Seismic Toss cause damage regardless of type.

HOWE — At the top of a rise north of this Grayson County town, behind a chain-link fence topped with barbed wire, the first batch of water from Lake Texoma laps noisily against the steep banks of what appear to be two huge swimming pools.
These make up a balancing reservoir that occupies the high ground separating the Red River Basin to the north and the Trinity River Basin to the south and west.
Texoma, about 75 miles north of Dallas, was a significant source of water for the North Texas Municipal Water District for almost two decades before invasive zebra mussels found a home in the lake in 2009.
To restore its water supply from Texoma, the water district had to build an elaborate system that will pump the water uphill from the lake to the balancing reservoir, which holds up to 240 million gallons.
It will linger for just a while before running downhill, powered by gravity, to Lavon Lake in Collin County.
Some of the Texoma water could be running through the pipes of North Texas homes before the end of May, said Denise Hickey, spokeswoman for the water district. When two more treatment plants come online, the district will add more Texoma water to the supply system.
"There's no specific date for that other than late June or early July," Hickey said.
But simply having this restored water supply available is great news for the district and the fast-growing corner of North Texas it serves.
"We're permitted to use 197,000 acre-feet of water from Texoma," said Mike Rickman, deputy director of the water district, "but the most we ever used was about 84,000 acre-feet," or slightly more than 27.3 billion gallons.
"Once we get our blending facilities up and running, we'll use about 75 million gallons a day on average," he said. "The range is 30 million to 40 million gallons a day in the winter to 120 million gallons a day in the summer."
But when the zebra mussels arrived, those 27.3 billion gallons of water dried up.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, hoping to keep the mussels out of the Trinity River system, cut off the flow from Texoma until the water district could rebuild its Texoma-to-Lavon delivery system.
The project eventually cost more than $300 million.
Back in the 1980s, when zebra mussels were still home in Eastern Europe, the water district built a pipeline that carried Texoma water for about 25 miles before spilling it into the west prong of Sister Grove Creek and eventually into Lavon.
But with the mussels settled in at Lake Texoma, the Corps of Engineers ordered the district to build a closed system. They wanted pipelines to carry the water from the lake to the district's treatment plant with no chance of it leaking into the Trinity system.
The mussels made it into the Trinity anyway, probably as stowaways on a boat taken from Texoma to Lake Ray Roberts without proper cleaning.
Restoring the Texoma supply comes at a critical time. Over the last six years, the Dallas-Fort Worth region has lost the equivalent of a year's worth of rainfall, about 36 inches, due to drought. Coupled with hotter than normal summers, the water supply took a significant hit.
The North Texas Municipal Water District, which serves about 1.6 million customers north and east of Dallas, including some of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S., had to impose tough water restrictions on its customers.
Adding Texoma to the water mix this summer probably won't change that without significant rainfall during the driest months of the year.
"The Texoma supply doesn't remove any [conservation] stages," Rickman said.
Texoma's water also comes with complications. It's salty, much more so than the district's other supply sources.
"It has about three or four times the salinity," Rickman said, "so if you use Texoma as a supply source, you have to desalinate it or blend it with better water sources."
The water district mixes the salty water with sweeter water from Lavon and the district's other supply lakes at new blending facilities at the Wylie treatment plant. Optimally, the final ratio of sweet to salt is 4:1 to 5:1, Rickman said.
The district has plans for increasing its water supply with a new lake, the planned Bois d'Arc Creek Reservoir in Fannin County. But that project still awaits permits and is not expected to be online before 2020. The district intends to build a new treatment plant in Leonard, close to the lake. That plant will also treat additional supplies from Texoma, Rickman said.
"In the future, as we bring additional water sources online, we will use additional Texoma water to blend with it," he said.
