Make sure the piece is stable and all the connections are secure. If you need to refinish the piece, ask the vendor precisely what it's made from, as this will help in the refinishing process. Another consideration is how it will sit on your floor or rug, and if it will damage those surfaces. Splintered table legs or rusty metal bases can scratch or stain the flooring. Secondhand stores sometimes leave those areas unrefinished, so be sure to check.
Keep an upholstered ottoman 18 inches from a sofa or chair, so you can easily put up your feet, and make sure the height is consistent with the surrounding seats. If you get a tufted ottoman, consider the depth of the tufts — especially if you expect to eat on it. Crumbs will find their way into the tufting and are not always easy to get out. Round coffee tables aid circulation, especially where there are many available seats, as in this example. If not every seat can reach the table, make sure there's another surface at hand. Using a vintage object for a coffee table adds a bit of history — a story — to a room, and is one of my favorite things to do.
A lip edge or tray top on a coffee table is always a smart choice if you have a tendency to spill your coffee or have kids that will be using the coffee table for snacks and drinks. They're also good if you entertain often and don't want to worry about red wine getting spilled on your carpet. Coffee tables should be the same height as the surrounding seating, with 18 inches being a good average (although it will depend on your furniture). If you select a coffee table with a lip, make sure the lip isn't higher than the adjacent seating, or you'll end up hitting your drink against the lip when you try to set it down. The idea is to put your drink down, not up.
If you don't want the coffee table to be the focus of the room, choose one with a glass top and a finish that blends with others in the room, as in this example. This will keep the eye interested in all the items in the room, not just one layer of the design. Metal bases with glass tops are another good choice to keep rooms feeling open. They're also great when you have a special rug and don't want to block views of it. Keep your glass cleaner handy, though, as there is no way around fingerprints. Keep in mind that with most glass tops — if they are not inset — you'll see a green tint on the sides. You can order a speciality glass that doesn't have this tint, but it's more expensive.

Marvin Bell
Marvin Bell was born in New York City on August 3, 1937, and grew up in Center Moriches, on the south shore of eastern Long Island. He holds a bachelor of arts degree from Alfred University, a master of arts from the University of Chicago, and a master of fine arts from the University of Iowa.
Bell's debut collection of poems, Things We Dreamt We Died For, was published in 1966 by the Stone Wall Press, following two years of service in the U.S. Army. His following two collections were A Probable Volume of Dreams (Atheneum, 1969), a Lamont Poetry Selection of the Academy of American Poets, and Stars Which See, Stars Which Do Not See (1977), which was a finalist for the National Book Award.
Since then, Bell has published numerous books of prose and poetry, most recently Vertigo: The Living Dead Man Poems (Copper Canyon Press, 2011); 7 Poets, 4 Days, 1 Book (Trinity University Press, 2009), a collaboration with six other poets, including Tomaz Salamun, Dean Young, and Christopher Merrill, and Mars Being Red (Copper Canyon Press, 2007) , which was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Award.
Bell's other collections include Rampant (2004); Nightworks: Poems, 1962-2000 (2000); Ardor: The Book of the Dead Man, Volume 2 (1997); A Marvin Bell Reader: Selected Poetry and Prose (Middlebury College Press, 1994); The Book of the Dead Man (Copper Canyon Press, 1994); Iris of Creation (1990); New and Selected Poems ( Atheneum, 1987).
He has also published Old Snow Just Melting: Essays and Interviews ( University of Michigan Press, 1983), as well as Segues: A Correspondence in Poetry with William Stafford (Godine, 1983).
About his early work, the poet Anthony Hecht said, "Marvin Bell is wonderfully versatile, with a strange, dislocating inventiveness. Capable of an unflinching regard of the painful, the poignant and the tragic; but also given to hilarity, high-spirits and comic delight; and often enough wedding and blending these spiritual antipodes into a new world. It must be the sort of bifocal vision Socrates recommended to his drunken friends if they were to become true poets."
Later in his career, Bell created the poetic form known as the "Dead Man poem," about which the critic Judith Kitchen has written: "Bell has redefined poetry as it is being practiced today."
Beginning in 2000, he served two terms as Iowa's first Poet Laureate. His other honors include awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, The American Poetry Review , fellowships from the Guggenheim and National Endowment for the Arts, and Senior Fulbright appointments to Yugoslavia and Australia.
Bell taught for forty years for the Iowa Writers' Workshop, retiring in 2005 as Flannery O'Connor Professor of Letters. For five years, he designed and led an annual Urban Teachers Workshop for America SCORES. Currently he serves on the faculty of Pacific University's low-residency MFA program. He has also taught at Goddard College, the University of Hawaii, the University of Washington and Portland State University.
Bell has influenced generations of poets, many of which were his students, including Michael Burkard, Marilyn Chin, Rita Dove, Norman Dubie, Albert Goldbarth. Robert Grenier, Joy Harjo, Juan Felipe Herrera, Mark Jarman, Denis Johnson, Larry Levis, David St. John, and James Tate.
Marvin Bell also frequently performs with the bassist, Glen Moore, of the jazz group, Oregon. He and his wife, Dorothy, live in Iowa City and Port Townsend, Washington.

After finishing second in his own race, 10-year-old Aiden Keller cheered on his dad, Greg Keller, while he pushed through the last few laps of the New Year's Resolution Pre-Nationals cyclocross race at Valmont Bike Park on Saturday.
"Go Dad, go!" Aiden yelled, standing astride his bike.
A few other spectators rang their cowbells and caught on to the 10-year-old's chants, joining in jokingly, "Yeah! Go Dad!"
Around 150 'cross racers braved the snow and mud Saturday morning for the race, one last push before 2013 cyclocross national championships that start Wednesday in Madison, Wis.
This time next year, the Kellers will be prepping for a national championship race at their home course, Boulder's Valmont Bike Park. Saturday's pre-nationals race marked the unofficial one-year countdown until Boulder hosts the national race Jan. 8-12, 2014.
City of Boulder and Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau officials travel to Madison this week to begin promoting the 2014 national championship race in Boulder and to take notes on how Madison organized its race.
"It's that benchmark," Boulder's Valmont Bike Park project manager Mike Eubank said Saturday at the bike park. "After this, we have one year to go. It starts our countdown."
Valmont Bike Park a model for other cities
Six cities submitted cyclocross nationals proposals to USA Cycling, said USA Cycling Vice President of National Events Micah Rice.
But Boulder's proposal stuck out, Rice said. The bid was a joint effort by the City of Boulder and Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau, which showed a solid commitment from Boulder leaders.
And, Rice said, the city's decision to build a permanent 40-acre, natural-surface bike park deserved recognition.
"That a city would put money into something like (Valmont Bike Park) instead of another three or four softball fields or soccer fields or other things," Rice said. "Going in the direction of a cycling-specific park-- that's a big deal and we look at that as something we hope a lot of other cities will try to emulate. That's something USA Cycling wants to reward."
Valmont Bike Park has already proven worthy of large-scale cyclocross events by hosting the Boulder Cup, which drew large crowds of spectators and competitors, Rice said.
USA Cycling narrowed down the six bids to three, awarding the race to Boulder for 2014, Austin, Texas, for 2015 and Asheville, N.C., for 2015.
"We felt with the success of the Boulder Cup and with the fact that the course was permanent and had run a number of test events, Boulder was ready right away. That's why Boulder got the first year."
But it wasn't just Valmont Bike Park, he added. Boulder's bike-friendly streets and the cycling community's willingness to volunteer time toward making nationals a success were also factors, Rice said.
"The cycling culture in Boulder is just one of the strongest cycling cultures of any city in the U.S.," he said. "When you start thinking about Boulder and the cycling culture, there are very few cities that reach that level of enthusiasm and intensity for cyclists."
Boulder's plan
Valmont Bike Park project manager Mike Eubank chatted excitedly with a junior racer at Saturday's pre-nationals race.
"What have you been up to, huh?" Eubank asked before hopping out of the way as a pack of muddy bikes tore behind him.
Eubank, along with Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau's Margee Austin, have recruited a team of cycling ambassadors who will tell everyone competing in Madison why they should plan a trip to Valmont Bike Park next January.
They'll also take notes in Madison on the race's every detail--from bathrooms to a lost-and-found box to parking.
"We're going to take considerable time and attention and focus on the event identifying stuff they're doing well and stuff we want to bring back," Eubank said. "It's an opportunity to work directly hand-in-hand with those folks who are hosting it to learn from them."
Among other things, Eubank and his team of ambassadors will emphasize the bike-friendliness of Boulder, the city's craft beer industry, multitude of local bike shops, mountainous scenery and outdoor recreation options.
"It's going to be an easy sell but we want to make sure there's a good, positive buzz that we have out there," he said.
USA Cycling's Rice said the city should concentrate on the peripheral aspects of the race so that racers and their families enjoy the city when not competing.
"We're not worried about the bike race itself," Rice said. "We know what that looks like. You're talking about a lot of families that come in for four or five days. They'll do the race, but that's a very minor part. The biggest thing we can do is get really organized on all the other things to do surrounding the race that make it a truly good experience."
When Bend, Ore., hosted nationals in 2009, the city reported $1.08 million in direct economic impact from the race.
Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau executive director Mary Ann Mahoney said her office's research predicted that nationals will bring in around $540,000 in Boulder.
"We're very cautious and probably conservative about what we estimate," she said, explaining the disparity between Bend and Boulder's numbers.
Mahoney said that Colorado cyclists made up 12 percent of racers in Bend. If that number holds true or grows for Boulder, she said, local families are less likely to stay in Boulder hotels or will stay fewer days.
Between 1200 and 1500 cyclists will compete in the race, Mahoney predicted, but the number of spectators and vendors is unknown.
Boulder Beer President Jeff Brown, who races cyclocross himself, said he hopes the city will make a "huge impression" on cyclists, who will then bring their families back for future vacations.
Plus, many 'cross racers like beer. Boulder Beer, 2880 Wilderness Pl., sits a short one-mile bike ride from Valmont, perfect for stimulating the local economy.
"Cyclocross racers love their beer, and that's awesome for us," Brown said. "But I think the 'cross racers will have the opportunity to sample a dozen of the best breweries in the country. I'm sure that's going to be a little of the enticement to coming to Boulder."
Build it, and they will race
The 40-acre Valmont Bike Park occupies a section of the 132-acre Valmont City Park, and was developed by a partnership between the city and the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance.
Of the projected total cost of $1,256,277, sales and property tax revenue funded 65 percent, while grants, donations and sponsorships covered the remaining 35 percent, according to the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance.
Ground broke on the park in October 2009, and the park opened a year and a half later in June 2011.
Eubank said winning the bid for 2014 cyclocross nationals is one marker of the park's success.
"We put extreme focus on creating a standard for events so they would actually incorporate and follow International Cycling Union standards for 'cross and racing," Eubank said. "It's almost like there was an anticipation, like we knew that something like (nationals) would come."
Cyclocross nationals won't fill the void left by Boulder's decision not to submit a bid for the 2013 USA Pro Cycling Challenge, but Eubank said it doesn't need to.
He said he was supportive of the decision to take a year off from the challenge, adding that the city and event organizers can use the time to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the 2012 Boulder stage.
"There's always going to be something for the cycling community to get excited about in Boulder," Eubank said. "This is going to keep the ball rolling and it may even help us with our (USA Pro Cycling Challenge) bid knowing we can accommodate these people. We'll definitely use that to our advantage for hosting the challenge in 2014."
Greg Keller, who pens a cyclocross blog called Mud and Cowbells, said he hopes cyclocross racers from across the country will make the trip to Boulder for the 2014 nationals because of the city's partnership with the community and volunteers to build a successful, multi-use park.
Not only does it challenge experienced riders, the bike park is welcoming to kids and newcomers to the sport.
"Boulder is ready at the right time and the right place to show off what a sport can do for the community," he said.

Tags: arthritis, books, felis navidad, happy Christmas, New Year's resolution, NSD powerball", powerball, prezzies, Rheumatoid arthritis, sore hands
Happy Christmas, belated Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year everybody! Felis navidad e prospero ano nuevo.
I've had a lovely break so far, and some really ACE presents! One of my many New Year's Resolutions is going to be to make more of an effort to give people things not on their Amazon wishlists as well as things that are, because although I'm always delighted to get anything off my wishlist (and I got some cracking presents off my wish list this year – an excellent mix of fiction, non-fiction and CDs), two of the best presents weren't on there. Also I suspect the best present I gave was one that wasn't on a wishlist either – a "Dr Who Scarf" crocheted for sister-in-law-to-be (aka Mrs Mooseface). It's certainly the most appreciated!
My two ACE non-wish-list prezzies were an Encyclopedia of Machine Embroidery, which I'm actually reading cover to cover rather than using as reference book, it's so good, and a little extra prezzie from Hubby (who got me a Spanish course for my main prezzie) – an NSD powerball. This is basically a gyroscope inside a plastic ball, but it's also hopefully a muscle strengthening aid and definitely bloomin good fun! It took as most of Christmas afternoon to get it working at all as you have to start it off by winding a sort of shoelace around it and then swizzling it around until the energy builds up, and we just didn't have the knack, but once Hubby worked it out and then explained it to me in words of one syllable, and with demonstrations to boot, we've really been enjoying using it.
If you want to see a demo they have a website here. I have to say though, I suspect most people with rheumatoid arthritis would be unable to grip the thing, either at all or at least once the energy has built up in the gyroscope, as it starts to feel like it wants to take off and take you with it. That's a very strange sensation but definitely fun. I have to keep changing hands with it or my hands get too sore, but I am finding that I can hold it for longer and longer each time I use it – and I've only been using it for 48 hours, so it seems quite promising!
Perhaps I'll take it into my physio when I see her later in the week to see what she thinks of it – but I'm scared she'll say, 'Good grief – you shouldn't be using that. Stop it immediately!' and it's too much fun for that!

The metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor is a device used for amplifying or switching electronic signals. In MOSFETs, a voltage on the oxide-insulated gate electrode can induce a conducting channel between the two other contacts called source and drain. The channel can be of n-typeor p-type, and is accordingly called an nMOSFET or a pMOSFET (also commonly nMOS, pMOS). It is by far the most common transistor in both digital and analog circuits, though the bipolar junction transistor was at one time much more common. More information on MOSFET can be found here.

What are the different types of tile floors?
Made from clay and minerals, these glazed tiles make good insets, or accent pieces. Ceramic tile is easy to clean, durable and available in many styles and textures. If you have kids or pets, consider textured tiles, as they are less slippery and a safer flooring option.
Porcelain tiles are ceramic tiles that have been fired at a higher temperature for a denser tile. With a greater density, porcelain is more resistant to moisture, making it a great choice for bathroom floors.
Natural stone tile flooring comes in a variety of colors and textures giving you a wide range of options. Stone floors are perfect for kitchens, bathrooms and entryways. Depending on the type of stone you select, stone tiles can complement a wide range of styles from rustic to contemporary. You'll also find that no two tiles are alike, giving your space unique character.
Tiles can come in many different shapes and sizes, from classic square to wood-like planks. Tiles can take on many different appearances based on layout. Whether tiles are placed edge to edge or used with grout can change the look of a space. As an alternative to grout you may consider using smaller, mosaic tiles in between the primary tiles to create a unique look. Layout design can also deliver a similar effect, by having a pattern laid with tile or just by placing the tile on a diagonal.
Tile also comes in different thicknesses. A thicker tile is great for the floor. Thinner tile is better suited to wall mounting. Mosaic tiles are great for accents and backsplashes because their smaller size lends to more intricate patterns. The tile types listed above are mostly neutral in color because of their natural makeup. But for a pop of color you can opt for glass tiles. By mixing and matching tile varieties you can create texture in your space. Tile can fit with any color palette or design style.

Redmond's open source engines change gear this month with news that Microsoft enterprise social network subsidiary Yammer is open sourcing SDKs for Apple iOS and Windows Phone 8. The move is (of course) hoped to help extend the social tools within Yammer to connection points with other third-party enterprise applications.
The newly acquired Yammer (Microsoft purchased the company in 2012 for $1.2 billion) will not add Android to this list of openness, for now at least.
For application developers, these SDKs will work to help add Yammer's OAuth 2-based authentication to a piece of software. The SDKs offer both read and write access to Yammer's APIs to enable functional integration into apps.
"Once authenticated, programmers can use the SDKs to make REST calls to read/write from the Yammer API, thus integrating the full spectrum of Yammer's social services into your mobile app," said the company.
These mobile-centric software application development kits now augment the other SDKs from the Yammer family dedicated to functions working with JavaScript, Ruby, and Python.
According to the firm's blog, Yammer Engineering believes in moving quickly. "This is evident in the Yammer Platform, where developers can rapidly build social enterprise apps. Apps that can scale to Fortune 500-sized companies. To speed up the mobile app development process, we are also releasing Open Source SDKs for iOS and Windows Phone 8."
Forrester analyst Rob Koplowitz said that the ability to bundle Yammer into enterprise license agreements "creates a recipe" for Microsoft to seed lots of licenses into the market quickly. "This does not necessarily mean that Yammer will be the right answer for all, but it will get it on a lot of shortlists," he said.

Change of cassette Mountainbike
If the cassette needs to be removed, for example to clean parts or to remove the sprocket protector follow these simple instructions:
1. Remove the rear wheel from the frame and the quick release from the wheel. Fit the cassette tool into the axle and wrap the chain whip around the largest or second largest sprocket ring. The chain whip needs be mounted in the direct that will prevent the freehub from turning anti clockwise while removing the cassette.
2. Using a suitable spanner on the cassette tool undo the lockring whilst at the same time holding against the chain whip. You can now slide the cassette off the free hub.
3. To reattach the cassette you don't need to use the chain whip. Apply a light film of grease to the freehub and slide the cassette back on in the correct order. Check that all the spacers are positioned correctly. Now screw the lockring onto the thread of the freehub being careful not cross thread either part. Tighten the lockring using the cassette tool and a torque wrench to the specified 40 Nm.

Through collaboration with the Coast Guard and with a little ingenuity from Ham's architect, Beacon No. 9 was incorporated into the design of the restaurant itself, and an easement was granted to the Coast Guard for the maintenance and operation of the still-functioning lighthouse.
Now, more than four decades later, Tom Ham's daughter, Susan Baumann, husband Larry and their three adult sons — Andy, Tommy and Grant — will modernize major features of the 1971 bayfront restaurant with
$3.5 million in renovations to its interior dining spaces, banquet rooms and exterior facades.
From the outside, Harbor Island passersby will see walls knocked down to accommodate expansive windows and a new outdoor dining patio above the water, drastic changes to the interior dining area that will include an 18-seat bar and adjacent cocktail lounge with panoramic views of the bay and cityscape, as well as the creation of a new wedding court in a semi-secluded corner of the property.
"We did a renovation about 10 years ago, but we were only closed for about a month. It was never seen in the public's eye as a major renovation. There wasn't enough change. It was more of an update than a remodel," said youngest son Andy. "This is a major renovation, and it's definitely about time. We're getting close to our lease end with the port, so if you make capital improvements on the building, you get a lease extension."
For a $3.5 million investment and about four months of construction, Tom Ham's gets another 40 years on its lease.
And in the next 40 years, the family-run business will carry on the restaurant's legacy with the myriad strengths of the entire family, including Susan and Larry's sons who — until recently — were pursuing careers in fields like engineering, law and medicine.
"We need to have that family feel in there. Everyone who comes to Bali Hai [also run by the Baumanns] knows Larry, my father. Everybody's met Larry and that's been a big part of the business is to see the same face when you walk in the door, so it's time to have family over there," said Andy. "Unfortunately, my grandfather died a year after he bought the place, so we haven't really had family there, but now we kind of have an army."
Despite the massive overhaul, the Baumanns intend to embrace the steadfast historic charm of the venerable California marine tradition Ham always envisioned.
"My grandfather was a California historian, and he really embraced the early California discovery and shipping culture," said Andy. "He collected artifacts, and his shipping artifacts are pretty impressive."
Ham's penchant for authentic collectables is visible throughout both the Baumanns' family-owned and operated restaurants. Walking through either is like walking through a cultural history museum, with authentic Polynesian tiki artifacts at Bali Hai and priceless nautical relics at Tom Ham's Lighthouse adorning the walls and display cases.
"Putting together the artifacts ties in the whole theme. Those are the things that are important to us," said Andy. "The architect can design the whole thing, but you have to have those little touches at the end that really tie it all in."
Among Tom Ham's Lighthouse's many maritime artifacts are maps of San Diego Bay dating back to 1890, a genuine fog belt from a lighthouse in Massachusetts and a few leftover ship pieces from San Diego's maritime museum.
The most striking nautical fixture in the restaurant, however, is prominently displayed near the main entrance in the form of a fully operational beacon warning bay sailors of nearby land.
The lighthouse, too, is getting a modern makeover, with the Coast Guard's recent replacement of its old halogen lens to a cleaner, more energy-efficient LED light.
"The Coast Guard came out last week and changed the light out just like they did at the Point Loma Lighthouse. It's pretty impressive," said Andy. "It's a bright light, and it's a lot smaller than the other one. The old lens was big and it would put out more of a glow. This one is very distinct and sends out more of a light."
The upgrades to both the lighthouse lens and building renovation are in line with a certain ongoing trend throughout Point Loma, with many improvements at other businesses in the area also under way.
"You can see that everybody is getting to the end of their leases. Everybody's remodeling — Pizza Nova, Point Loma Seafood — everything's getting updated around the same time," he said. "It's fun to be out on the water right now."
Tom Ham's Lighthouse, located at 2150 Harbor Island Drive, is slated to reopen on May 1. For more information, visit www.tomhamslighthouse.com.

Region at a halt as storm socks region
Southeast Connecticut is hardest hit in the state with power outages, according to CL&P. North Stonington, Waterford, East Lyme, Old Lyme and Lyme all top the outage percentages with more than 60 percent of customers in the dark, according to the company's 9:46 a.m. update.
Thirty-four Connecticut Light & Power line crews are positioned in New London, as well as 16 tree crews, Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio announced this morning.
The utilities plan to get to work this afternoon restoring power to 1,826 customers without once the snow and wind stops.
Anyone additional outages should be reported directly to CL&P at 800-286-2000.
All Department of Public Works employees have been called in to help with snow removal and the mayor said additional private contractors have been hired to remove snow.
he major utility companies predicted a 30 percent power outage for Connecticut. On Friday Connecticut Light & Power expected to bring 400 additional linemen and about 100 tree crew personnel from outside the state to help Connecticut recover from the storm, Malloy said.
The biggest power outages in local towns according to the CL&P website as of 7:52 a.m. were:
East Lyme: 7,695 - 80 percent
Groton: 2,176 customers - 26 percent
Ledyard: 1,420 - 21 percent
Lyme: 1,033 - 78 percent
North Stonington: 1,913 - 75 percent
Old Lyme: 3,971 - 73 percent
Stonington: 4,169 - 52 percent
Waterford: 6,579 - 68 percent
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy ordered all roads in the state closed until further notice. The advisory said all vehicles except those used for emergency response were part of the travel ban.
Plows and police vehicles took over the roadways today before dawn and people across southeastern Connecticut took cover as a massive, possibly historic, blizzard blew into town, leaving power outages and dumping a snowfall forecast at 2 feet by the time the storm ends midday today.
The blizzard, christened "Nemo" by The Weather Channel, already had paralyzed the New York to Boston corridor and most of New England before it started snowing mid-morning Friday. In anticipation of the snow totals and wind gusts, planes were grounded, trains ran on limited schedules and cars were all but prohibited from most roadways Friday.
Malloy declared a state of emergency Friday and banned travel on highways, including Interstates 95 and 395, until further notice. Municipalities announced most local roadways were closed as well, except to emergency personnel.
Malloy also said the storm was not predicted to be as bad of a storm as Superstorm Sandy, but a tidal surge of about 3 to 5 feet was expected.
The National Weather Service's blizzard warning remains in effect until 1 p.m. today. Some bands of snow were expected to drop 2 to 4 inches per hour, the weather service predicted.
'Sandy with snow'
"This is basically going to be Hurricane Sandy with snow," Stonington First Selectman Ed Habarek said as the storm started to bear down Friday.
Municipalities worked hard to keep roads cleared, including in New London, where Mark Mitsko drove his International snowplow up and down the streets in the north end of the city, making sure his route was pre-salted and that he would be able to pass through later Friday when the snow was expected to pick up.
During a pass from one end of the city to the other, Mitsko checked the temperature: air, 32 degrees, road surface, 27 degrees. He was one of a fleet of 20 public works trucks and 45 workers who will be on duty, probably until some time Sunday he said, making sure the roads are passable.
In Groton City, Mayor Marian Galbraith had hunkered down Friday for the long haul.
Galbraith had partially activated the emergency operations center, setting up maps, tuning a television to the Weather Channel and organizing radios to contact public works and Groton Utilities crews. She was even blowing up an inflatable bed while waiting for the worst of the storm to hit the area.
She urged all residents to stay put if at all possible.
In Preston, more than 200 CL&P customers were without power this morning and several roads are blocked with downed trees, First Selectman Robert Congdon said.
"Now we start digging out," Congdon said.
Congdon said a few vehicles are stuck on roads. On Old Jewett City Road, a car struck a tree, but he driver apparently locked the car and left. "We're assuming they're all right," he said.
In Norwich, about 30 officials attended a national Internet Web conference with National Weather Service Meteorologist Gary Conte for an update on the expected impact of the storm on southeastern Connecticut.
Northern New London County could get as much as 24 to 30 inches of snow, while coastal areas could see significant storm surges and wind erosion. Coastal flooding, especially in western Long Island Sound, could reach 3 to 5 feet above ground at high tide, Conte said.
Following the weather update, Norwich officials outlined the city's plans for handling the brunt of the storm.
A 911 dispatcher remained at the city's Emergency Operations Center, at the Norwich Public Utilities headquarters on South Golden Street, throughout the storm to ensure that snow plows are directed to streets with active emergencies, Emergency Management Director Gene Arters said.
Police Chief Louis Fusaro said road closures were announced as needed, and the city issued a citywide travel ban during the height of the storm.
Arters said local American Red Cross officials were advising residents without power to "shelter in place" during the storm. The city plans to open the emergency shelter at Kelly Middle School after the storm if needed. If major power outages occur in Norwich, Arters said, city staff could open the shelter earlier if necessary.
Dolores Thayer, facilities operations supervisor for Norwich Public Schools, said custodians will be stationed at all city schools throughout the storm to keep up with snow removal in anticipation of opening school on Monday.
In Storrs, University of Connecticut staff have been working around-the-clock to keep the Storrs campus roads passable for police and fire vehicles, but like other roads statewide, they are closed to non-emergency traffic, said Stephanie Reitz, UConn spokeswoman.
No injuries have been reported, she said.
The University has a large supply of food and anticipates no difficulties at all in meeting the needs throughout the storm's duration and aftermath, she said.
Campus officials are urging students to remain inside but, if they go out, to stay off the roads so plows can move safely.
No damage has been experienced, but the Avery Point campus in Groton has recorded heavy winds and one building temporarily lost power overnight, Reitz said.

A 62-year-old Venice man was killed early this morning in a one-car accident on U.S. 41 at National Boulevard.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Samuel W. Greer III, was traveling east on U.S.41 in the inside lane at about 2:30 a.m., when he lost control and began to rotate counter-clockwise into the center median.
Greer slid across the median and the westbound lanes, and the right side of his 2000 Buick Century struck a large oak tree.
According to FHP's preliminary report, it is not known whether alcohol or seatbelt use played a role in this accident.

A new job-posting website at the University of Colorado will open more doors for unemployed Buff by helping students nab positions at local and national startup companies.
CU junior Fletcher Richman, president of student group Active Entrepreneurs, is working with the Computer Science Undergraduate Advisory Committee to create startups2students.com, a site for that will include information about startup companies' vacant jobs.
Fletcher said the idea was sparked when he read "Startup Communities," a book authored by Boulder venture capitalist Brad Feld.
"Part of the book talked about how one of the most important things a university can do for its local startups is be a feeder and provide employees," Richman said. "I realized that's (CU's) main service to the community, but that doesn't mean we're doing a good job of it."
The students said they hope the resource will assist Buffs in find employment at unique companies, thus helping startups find fresh and creative employees.
Richman and four other students -- including Danny Tran, Chris McClaskey, Adam Sunshine and Komran Rashidov -- are using winter break to develop the site, which Richman described as "basic and nothing fancy."
CU's Career Services office also offers a job postings site for students, which lists openings from across various industries, including some startups.
Jon Schlesinger, assistant director for Career Counseling at CU, said as of Wednesday there were 27 jobs posted by employers described as "entrepreneurs," and there have been more than 300 in the same category posted over the last several years.
More than 30 companies have already contacted the students about posting on startups2students.com, Richman said, and most of them have at least five positions to fill. Richman said this gives the website hundreds of postings before it even launches.
Lisa Severy, director of Career Services, said the office is supportive of all efforts that help Buffs find employment.
"We have the philosophy that any and all options for employment are great and should be explored," Severy said. "Career Services can't be the end-all and be-all for everyone, so we welcome innovative and created new options."
Richman said the site's premature success is mostly due to Feld, who posted about the upcoming site on his blog (feld.com).
"He is really influential -- not just in Boulder's startup community, but across the nation," Richman said. "He posted our survey that we're doing to get it going and I think most of our interest has come from that and a couple of other blog posts."
The site is expected to launch in late January, Fletcher said, just before CU's fifth annual Startups 2 Students career fair, which gives students a chance to become acquainted with local companies.
