Consumer demands on utilities are far different than on most other industries because energy purchases are considered more and more as a basic commodity. In fact, 44 percent of energy consumers say they have no interest in interacting at all with their energy providers.
Consumers have unequivocally shown that when it comes to their energy provider, time, convenience and value are all that really matters.
Utilities should look at their changing consumer, investing in customer centricity only as appropriate for that audience. Given the changes in the industry—from deregulation to decarbonization—now is the time to adjust customer strategy.READ THE REPORT [PDF]
Energy consumers want utilities to stop the noise. Anything not related to time, convenience and value is noise to consumers who view energy as a simple commodity.
Your customer is now an algorithm. Five in 10 US customers want a switching service that roams the internet to find the best possible electricity offers based on their usage—and automatically switches them to the best offer. Reducing the cost to serve and sharing that with the customer, rather than emphasizing brand value, is the smart path.
Employees are still a differentiator. Employee engagement is strongly correlated to customer loyalty metrics. While more utilities customers are choosing based on price—if price is the same amongst several competitors—your employees' interactions with customers (even if infrequent) could be enough to tip the scales in your favor.
Letting customer desires guide investments
Customers will have an increased appetite for more if they are delighted with the basics. Then, utilities must disrupt and revolutionize for growth with new products and services.
Sharing the wealth
Utilities must reduce operating costs through AI and smart investment—then pass savings on to the customer.
Investing in your employees
Forecasts of AI adoption rates suggest that human interaction with customers is here to stay. Companies who invest heavily in employee experience see tangible value.

Claiming 10 Second Time Slips And Reclaiming Language Rights In A Daily-Driven '95 Trans AM
Special is one of those words so badly abused by overuse that its meaning has been drowned, anchored next to other nonwords like "nice." Particular, peculiar, exceptional-all mean the same thing. Special has devolved to the point of euphemism-one of those words to use when you can't think of anything else nice to say, like describing an unpleasant new food you've tried as "different" or some incoherent, drooling Neanderthal you've just met as "interesting." I keep picturing Dana Carvey as the Church Lady on Saturday Night Live, mouth drawn, eyebrow cocked, saying the word in question. I'm not laughing.
In fact, the more I type special, the more I roll it around in my head and on my tongue, the more I break it down into different syllables, the more it loses its meaning. Dick Clark's bloopers TV shows used to be "specials" which then relied heavily on generated material for laughs when they became a weekly series; clearly their specialness deteriorated. Long ago, Buick had a Special-a stripper model with dog-dish caps and rubber floor mats. Clearly the term has been cheapened and abused.
So what counts as special anymore? In an effort to bring this poor, mistreated term back into a less-diluted usage, we present to you Abe Finkel's '95 Comp T/A. What's so special, you ask? Well, in terms of our little collection of 10 second cars in this magazine, it represents a polar opposite of sorts: Elsewhere are the stories of three fellas in their 20s and 30s who drive cars older than they are, or come close. Finkel is unrepentantly in his mid-50s and is driving a machine that does not have a shred of '60s nostalgia anywhere in it. So there.
The 'Bird itself is, even in low-production F-body terms, fairly rare: Just 200 Comp T/As were announced, and by the end of the run, just 167 were assembled. This T/A was assembled by factory performance specialists SLP in Canada and included a Ram Air hood not seen on production models until '96, a tuned suspension featuring Bilstein shocks, BFGoodrich Comp T/A tires (der) on Speedline wheels, and the usual exclusive badging and paint and dash plaque stuff.
Can something with 167 identical examples, especially of something that is more or less mass-produced, really be considered special? That's up for debate, as is the wisdom of using a limited-production piece as a platform for such righteous speed while the factory WS6 Ram Air airbox sits in his garage. (Oooh, I can feel the resto purists twitching now…. It gives me a feeling that's deserving of a word far more special than special.) For his part, Finkel claims he wasn't planning on going this far with his Comp T/A, but now that he's here, why, it's kinda, well… there's that word again. What's not up for debate is that Finkel has driven his 50,000 miles to date, at the rate of 300 miles per week, plus to and from the racetrack. A 10 second daily driver? Now, if that ain't special….
Many so-called special editions suddenly grow in number when they start to sell, but such was not the case here-they made less than the announced 200 units. We think that, in and of itself, is pretty special. In fact, the only other Comp T/A known for certain to live in Southern California belongs to Tony Curtis. Yes, that Tony Curtis.
And Finkel's ain't even close to original anymore.
While his Comp T/A is much altered, there hasn't been any hacking going on here, except maybe of the computer variety to get the ACCEL DFI to run more smoothly. Everything that's been bolted on can be unbolted if he chooses. Besides, Finkel was largely hands off, except behind the wheel: He had Mike Morgan of Morgan Motorsports in North Hollywood, California, do it for him. Morgan is an F-body and a DFI specialist (there's that word again); he's convinced this 3,900-pound race-weight T/A to run 10.83 at 127mph low 10s at Palmdale, a track half a mile in the air. By the time you read this, Finkel and Morgan will likely own a nine-second timeslip from Palmdale (check www.morganmotorsports.com to see if he's pulled it off yet). One-off, mightily modified race machines have always been known as the so-and-so special, so in a tip of the hat to tradition, we'll let that particular word usage lie.
Ten second cars, daily drivers, special-edition vehicles with premium equipment… none of these, on their face, are particularly uncommon in these heady days of advanced technology and targeted marketing techniques. But combine these disparate elements and you get a package that very nearly generates its own aura. So this special edition, originally prepared by a factory-authorized specialist, has been rebuilt by an F-body speed specialist, which makes this particular special edition the specialest specialist special yet. Got that? No? You will when Abe Finkel leaves you in the dust, choking on your own vocabulary.

Coach Gary Kubiak was in no mood Monday to disclose what team rules running back Cierre Wood, outside linebacker Willie Jefferson and defensive end Sam Montgomery violated that caused him to place them on waivers.
"I won't discuss team rules," Kubiak said.
A person with knowledge of the situation said the three rookies violated team rules at the Texans' hotel in Kansas City on Saturday night. They were sent home and placed on the inactive list for the 17-16 loss to the Chiefs.
It's the first time Kubiak has waived anyone for a violation of one of his rules.
"I feel like they wasted a big opportunity," outside linebacker Brooks Reed said. "I'm sure they're realizing it right now. It's crazy and unfortunate because they had a great opportunity here to be successful.
"They just didn't get it. I don't understand why someone would do that to themselves."
The decision to make Wood inactive for the game hurt the team because running backs Arian Foster (hamstring) and Ben Tate (ribs) suffered injuries. Wood would have received a lot of playing time.
"It's disappointing, because each of them had promise," defensive end Antonio Smith said. "For one of them (Wood), it would have been his time to write his résumé. Everybody was surprised. It's a hard hit, especially with what happened in the game.
"We knew before the game. Coach told us. He always lets us know the decisions he's going to make. Then you get into the game, and Arian gets hurt, and Ben gets hurt, and it puts the team in a predicament. You've got to care more about your team."
The decision to release the three rookies left general manager Rick Smith and pro personnel director Brian Gardner looking for replacements.
'Missed opportunity'
"Yes, we could have (used Wood)," offensive tackle Duane Brown said. "It's very frustrating to have that happen knowing we had a back that was capable of carrying the load for us. It was a big missed opportunity on his part.
"I wish those guys well. I hope they're able to bounce back from this situation and land on their feet somewhere."
The Texans must sign a third running back. They also are looking for an inside linebacker to provide depth behind Darryl Sharpton and Joe Mays. Sharpton will replace Brian Cushing, who suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Chiefs.
"You have to put the team first," Brown said about the three rookies placed on waivers. "It's very shocking to have that happen. You're getting ready to play a huge game on the road, and to have (players) sent home is very disappointing and frustrating. Something had to happen.
"It's a wake-up call for them and anybody else. You have to be unselfish in this league."
Wood, who was suspended for the first two games of his junior year at Notre Dame for violating team rules, made the Texans as an undrafted free agent. He led the team in rushing in preseason.
Jefferson, who was kicked out of Baylor after failing multiple tests for marijuana, played at Stephen F. Austin. He was signed as an undrafted free agent and showed potential as a pass rusher. He also contributed on special teams.
High pick lost
Montgomery was a third-round pick. He began as an outside linebacker from LSU but was moved to defensive end. He had been inactive for every game this season.

Layne Craig, a lecturer in the Department of English at The University of Texas at Austin, recently used materials from the Ransom Center's collections to supplement her class "Literature of the Birth Control Movement." She writes about discoveries she made in the Center's collections and how the materials were used in the class.
As a graduate student, I visited the Harry Ransom Center for its literary artifacts: Virginia Woolf's letters to her niece Angelica Bell, Aubrey Beardsley's illustrations of Oscar Wilde's Salome, the Hogarth Press edition of Elizabeth Robins's Ibsen and the Actress. I only recently learned, however, of the breadth of the Ransom Center's resources on social science movements connected to literary history. I wanted to incorporate those resources into my fall 2010 class "Literature of the Birth Control Movement." With Cline Curator of Literature Molly Schwartzburg's help, I collected texts significant to the English and American birth control movements of the 1910s, along with texts highlighting the connections between birth control and the literary landscape of the twentieth century.
Some of the texts were foundational to the birth control movement. Margaret Sanger wrote "What Every Girl Should Know" in 1916, during the most politically radical period of her career, before she was charged with obscenity and fled to England to escape jail time. My students were able to look at the Haldeman-Julius Little Blue Book edition of that pamphlet, analyzing both Sanger's left-wing, feminist activism and the working-class audience she sought to reach in that text.
In contrast, we looked at early editions of British "Mother of Birth Control" Marie Stopes's decidedly middle-class-focused bestsellers, Married Love (1918) and Wise Parenthood (1919). Compared to Sanger's mass-produced pamphlets, Stopes's books look scientific and pedantic, with text-heavy dust jackets listing the author's credentials. Inside, however, are flowery descriptions of "the sex tide in woman": "If a swimmer comes to a sandy beach when the tide is out and the waves have receded, leaving sand where he had expected deep blue water—does he, baulked of his bathe, angrily call the sea 'capricious'?" Stopes's dual self-presentation as a scientist and a poet is a source of continual fascination for me, and these editions of her books helped bring that paradox to life for my students.
I also collected texts containing fictional depictions of birth control. Perfect for my uses was a manuscript of the third chapter of Mary McCarthy's 1963 The Group, depicting a young woman's visit to a birth control clinic in 1933. I love the title McCarthy gave this vignette: "Dottie Makes an Honest Woman of Herself." I also made a serendipitous discovery: Charles Norris's 1930 Seed: A Novel of Birth Control. The biblical imagery and art deco aesthetic of the dust jacket provoked conversation among my students, and the book itself, a family drama, has become part of my own work on the period.
Finally, with the help of Ransom Center graduate student intern Stephanie Bordy, I discovered a rich source of manuscript material in the newly cataloged British Sexological Society (BSS) collection. My students read a speech on "Sex Education before Marriage" given to the BSS by Jane Hawthorne, the clinician at Stopes's Mothers Clinic, and pored over the handwritten notes of the society's Heterosexual Study Group, to whom Sanger gave a paper in June 1920. We also perused the Society's Library List, which included a section on "Birth Control" alongside sections on "Marriage," "Homosexual and Intersexes," "Venereal Disease," and "Novels."
My students completed a writing assignment based on the texts we examined, allowing them to visit the Reading Room themselves for a longer look at our materials. The project was as useful to me as to them, as it gave me a chance to explore the range of the Ransom Center's collections, both in literary texts and in the cultures that influenced their production.

Sandra Bullock has had plenty of man trouble recently, but she's thrilled to have certain boy in her life.
The Oscar winning star told the "Today" show's Matt Lauer that Louis, the New Orleans-born boy she adopted even as her painful breakup with tattooed motorcycle mogul Jesse James played out in the tabloids, is her "little Cajun cookie."
"We don't have any boys in our family," Bullock said. "Boy, is everyone really happy about that. So, he's like the crown prince. You know, it's nothing but girls in our family," Bullock said. "I mean, my cousin in Germany has one son -- no boys. Can you imagine how miserable our father is? I mean, every pet was female. But it was just the hierarchy that needed to be broken."
Bullock, who recently helped cut the ribbon on a health clinic she helped fund in a New Orleans high school, said finalizing the adoption was a long process, but that she didn't use her star power to get special treatment.
"I did not circumvent," Bullock told Lauer. "I wanted to do everything exactly the same way everyone else did. And -- it was -- he was always mine, you know. It wasn't like I felt like someone was going to take him away. But it was nice to have someone say, I think you're a fit parent. ... I think, everything works out the way the universe wants it to work out."
The adoption surprised many, because the process had begun before revelations of James' infidelity led to their breakup. The two became estranged, but while the tabloids chased down James' paramours, Bullock quietly continued the process of adopting Louis. She said her close friends helped her keep the secret.
"I read something like, how did someone keep a secret, and it's -- you know-- human beings exist that have integrity that know how to keep their mouth shut. That know the bigger picture, that don't sell out their friends," Bullock said to Lauer. "Those people are all over the place. But again, we don't like to talk about it, because it doesn't sell a magazine. But I was blessed with the same friends I've had since before things got really special for me and blessed in life."
As for the health clinic she helped establish in the Warren Easton Charter High School, Bullock told Lauer she simply called school board member Arthur Hardy and asked how she could help. She said she had become aware of the work Hy and his peers had done in opening the school following Hurricane Katrina.
"They did it with such power and love and integrity," Bullock said. "Integrity. There's so much integrity here. And I've never been around that much integrity."

BTG Berlin - Justin Bieber has paid the bill he owed for trying to bring his pet monkey into Germany last year without its papers, according to German authorities.
The pop star is said to have paid the 8,000 euros (£6,417) he owed over the monkey blunder. Justin failed to produce vaccination and import papers for Mally the monkey on arriving in Munich in March 2013, and the animal was seized by customs.Mally became the German government's property after the singer failed to claim his pet, and now lives at a zoo in northern Germany. Franz Emde, a spokesman for the German Federal Nature Conservation Agency, said that Justin this week paid a 2,100 euro (£1,684) fine for the monkey's import plus the costs of several weeks' care at an animal shelter. Failure to pay could have put Justin in legal difficulty if he travelled in the EU.

Balance data privacy and personalization for a better customer experience
by Wilson Raj, Global Director for Customer Intelligence, SAS
Recent data breaches and potential changes in data-privacy legislation and regulations loom large as customer expectations concerning marketing data continue to rise.
The number of US data breach incidents tracked since 2005 reached 5,029 reported data breach incidents, involving more than 675 million estimated records according to the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC).
As a result, today's complex data privacy issues – including customer expectations, data-security lapses and legislative efforts – are alarming for marketers and customers. To gain some clarity around this important topic, SAS recently conducted a global study on how consumers balance their need for privacy and with their wish for personalization.
The results of our study are found in the white paper: Finding the Right Balance Between Personalization and Privacy.
We found that 69 percent of those surveyed said recent news – NSA leaks, social media privacy changes, data breaches, etc. – increased their privacy concerns.
Yet, consumers are still willing to trade privacy for personalization. Our study showed that 59 percent still expect businesses to know their preferences and understand their needs.
It seems there is a fine balance to strike between the desire for privacy and the desire for personalization. How do we make customers feel "known" and welcomed while also preserving their privacy?
Ways to ensure and strengthen data privacy
In exchange for consumers' trust, you must offer relevance, value and control. In exchange, consumers will show trust by providing their information.
If you can assure customers that their data is well managed, consumers will provide some personal information for more individualized experiences – as long as they get to make that choice themselves.
Organizations that use and manage data in ways that customers understand and trust will gain significant advantage. The up-front work that organizations must do is set clear expectations with the customer and then building trust through consistent internal and external activities.
Internally, companies must master data stewardship by:
- Making data policies transparent. For all data collected there should be a stated purpose.
- Ensuring and regularly verifying data quality. Customer records should be accurate and up to date and deleted when it is no longer needed.
- Ensuring data security and protection by using the appropriate tools, including authentication, backup, replication, training, policies and procedures.
- Defining a reasonable data retention period.
Externally, companies must engage customers by:
- Issuing clear communications on how customer data is going to be used and what types of data are being collected.
- Providing mechanisms for individuals to review their personal¬ data, to ensure accuracy. This may include periodic reporting.
- Refraining from asking consumers for too much data up front. Focus on building the customer experience by collecting data incrementally and using analytics to enhance their experience.
As consumers continue to use technology that opens their lives to others, they have dual expectations of businesses: understand me as an individual and protect my privacy. Therein lies the opportunity to achieve balance when crafting customer experiences.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Check it out on the blog (with video preview!):
Cheers, JB
Awesome. Been waiting for something like this to come along. Will definitely help those who have a lot of apps installed where the tools menu expands past the bottom of the view-port.
The downside is it doesn't automatically add apps after they've been installed, but it could lend itself well to an app that allows you to customize the menu itself.
I'm thinking of adding an option to let you specify an "other" category where new apps get added automatically, so there's somewhere they can be automatically injected into the new menu style. That could let us use the new menu style by default in Elefant too... :)
Great! I like a lot.
Thank you Johnny.
I've added the missing elements to the new toolbar menu (awareness of install and upgrade scripts, access control, etc), and added a
* column where additional apps not listed in the
conf/tools.php file will be added (e.g., custom or installed apps).
This allowed me to make the new menu the default for Elefant going forward. I think it's a much better user experience, and paves the way for incorporating help/documentation into the interface as well.
I can also see an app being created down the road that helps admins customize the toolbar for their particular site, or even customizability on a per-role or per-user basis.
What about making an admin page for the toolbar similar to the navigation page so those with permission can manage what apps are shown where on the toolbar itself from inside the CMS? On the toolbar dropdown, you could have a small font link in the top left to link to the edit page if the user has access to the feature. Thoughts?
I definitely see that in the future, although I haven't had a chance to build it myself yet. Anyone wanna take a stab at it? :) It could definitely take a lot of inspiration from the Navigation editor, and could either fit into the Administration column or as an edit link in the corner of the admin menu.
The path to the file should also probably be added to the
[Paths] section of the global config, so
admin\Toolbar doesn't assume it's always called the same thing (an easy fix that gives a bit more flexibility).
I think it would be suited better as a small link at the top so one doesn't accidentally "lose" navigation access to the page. I might take a crack at it sometime after the holiday season.
That's how I originally pictured it (a sort of "edit this menu" icon), although I also saw it as something each user could customize for themselves (a whole other can of worms there, haha). Not sure if that's the best approach for tech support though... :P
So it's after the holidays and I've made a PR for the toolbar editor. Worked really well in my local env, so there is probably a bug or two somewhere. Looking forward to any feedback.
Awesome! Just got the pull request notice. I'm just getting back into the swing of things, so it may take a bit to review this as well as your multi-key Model changes, but I'm going to try to dedicate all next week to Elefant so if I don't get back to you sooner then you can at least expect sometime next week :)
How the toolbar resource fetching will work with the new commits (it is a bit verbose):
admin/head/links -
If there is a
tools.php in the site root/conf, it reads for any resources in there. If the Extras section (name is customizable in the
apps/admin/conf/conf.php Paths section) is present, it searches for a
tools.php file for resources in each app that meets any necessary installation requirements. It then searches each app's Admin conf section, that didn't have a
tools.php present, and fills in any unused resources according to the ACL permissions into additional columns (of no appended to the list. This list of resources results in the LARGE category-based drop-down. All columns exceeding 7 resources get an additional column with a continuation number appended. (eg. If the original column
Administration has 9 resources, another column is created named
Administration (2) and 2 of those resources are placed under it.)
If there is NO
tools.php in the site root/conf folder, the above Extras section type autofill occurs and gets listed in the SMALL resource-based drop-down (the old version). Since it's resource based, the column name appending does not occur. If a user has basic admin access but no access to ANY of the resources made available by the toolbar (including autofill if Extras is present), NO toolbar drop-down will be shown, but the user will still have access to the other admin header options.
admin/toolbar -
If there is a
tools.php in the site root/conf, it reads any resources present and lists them on the
Toolbar Menu half of the editor. It also runs the Extras section type autofill and lists any resources not already present from the primary tools.php on the
Available Resources half of the editor. If the Extras section is present in the primary tools.php, it is included under the
Toolbar Menu half, otherwise it is appended to the
Available Resources side.
Man... that's a lot... I'll see about making a video showing the above functionality soon™.
Give me some time to read things over again, but it's really shaping up to be an awesome new feature!
Just merged this feature into the master branch :)
Looks cool!
Hi Johnny and Brony. The admin drop down menu isn't showing at all. what am i missing. downloaded the master from Git. Have tools.php in the root config, the one that came with the new master branch. Have tried a number of different path options and nothing. Feeling a bit stupid, can you please explain: extras section name customizable in the apps/admin/config/config.php? I have no menu at all, what am I missing. Have checked ,role is full admin privileges as I can still manually check via the address bar. Prior to the change the new admin was working. Your help is most appreciated. :)
Issue is only occurring with Brony's master branch. both side by side and Johnny yours works out the box. Can't see what the difference is. Using firefox developer edition beta. Also latest stable versions of chrome and firefox on lubuntu lxle. shakes head mayhaps it's a system or browser quirk. Love the admin menu, a little extra toggle and you have multiple options via screen sizes. You both ROCK!
A few questions:
/admin/head/links on your site once you've logged in, what does it output?
In addition to Johnny:
As for the
Extras section name, that is the custom header value for the autofill column that globs for app defined toolbar resources if it is set to be visible on the toolbar.

There was a time about 20 years ago when I wrote this post (kidding, only seems like that long ago) that I had what seemed to be all the time in the world to wonder around with Mr. Darcy and observe. I was pregnant with Emma and I would go on long walks that lasted hours, all through town to watch the changing seasons. When we were living in Concord, Mass. I was awed by the abundance of lilacs everywhere all over that old fashioned town. This walkway/front hedge was one of my favorites.
Yesterday, Emma and I visited small hidden patch of Lilac bushes in the woods near our house that I had discovered years ago. I hadn't been there since Mike and I moved into this neighborhood (the first time) 7 years ago. We clipped an armful and stuck our noses in them the entire walk home.
They make this entire room smell so good.
I also found some Mrs. Meyers Lilac dish soap, counter spray and hand soaps at target... and bought several of each : )
Concord, being an old town settled in the 1635, has many old neighborhood streets and homes that remain from the Colonial and Victorian era. Lilacs were especially popular in the Victorian era and were a staple in landscape and garden design. In today's landscapes, they seem to have lost their popularity, unfortunately.
Look at this glorious hedge - I can't imagine how old it must be.
In the past, gardens were more seasonal than they are today - groves of cherry trees, hedges of lilac berries, and cutting gardens full of tulips and peonies. Now, landscapes are designed to be 'maintenance free' and look good all year long. While this might seem smart in our busy lives, I think everyone is missing out on enjoying the short blooming times of each seasonal flower.
This light pink lilac is so sweet peaking through the picket fence.
These full lilac blooms are from our very own bush.
Our old house was full of seasonal flowers - beginning with daffodils, hyacinth, tulips, pear and dogwood trees, magnolia, lilacs, peonies and ending the season with hydrangea. I loved it. In our new house, the landscaping was completely overgrown, so everything was torn out and started from scratch (except an old flagstone patio we discovered - a great surprise). I miss having the surprises of what each week might bring, but it has been fun to select exactly what we want.
More peaking lilacs.
A magenta color lilac.
And snow white with a tiny yellow center.
I think that bloom is 10 inches long.
I couldn't help myself from photographing the lily of the valley, they are everywhere and smell so sweet. You may remember them from Kate's bouquet at the Royal Wedding. Classic.
Wisteria winding itself on another picket fence.
Mr. Darcy yawning - long walk. Life is hard...

The Atomic Wrangler casino is a casino in Freeside.
The Atomic Wrangler, the only active casino in Freeside (featuring a neon sign of a futuristic cowboy riding a stylized atom), is also a flophouse, brothel, and source of chems, located just down the main drag. It is run by the Garret twins, protected by their thugs, and is a common hangout for the Van Graffs and the Kings. Many caravaneers and poor (but not impoverished) NCR folks can also be found here.[1]
Bottom levelEdit
The main room has a vaulted ceiling, a stage, and a bar. The next room has the casino's cashier and casino games. The cashier's room contains some pre-War money and chems in the safes. To the right through the second room are the bathrooms and a staircase to the second story balconies.
Behind the bar is a kitchen and storeroom, accessible via a door around the corner near the bathroom with a very hard lock. The key to this door is held by both Francine Garret and James Garret, but it will eventually become unlocked as soon as one of the Garrets heads upstairs to their room, as they are not programmed to lock it again.
Though not technically considered notable loot, the storage room / kitchen area behind the bar contains a significant amount of common items of moderate value, such as various alcoholic beverages. Hardcore players may also note a high number of fresh apples, pears, and carrots (at least a half-dozen each), as well as a weapons locker and medicine locker, both containing many useful items accordingly.
Second levelEdit
This level has a balcony which oversees the stage and bar. Off of the balcony are three rooms; as well as there being an additional room that is the Atomic Wrangler player house (after the Courier has completed the Debt Collector quest), all of which are unlocked (exception for the player house, which the player can gain access to it by completing the Debt Collector quest). In the east corner of the balcony lies a rentable room. Stairways lead back down and up to the third level.
Third levelEdit
This level has the Garrets' room and rooms for the employees, through a door with an Average (50) lock which can be opened with the same key held by the Garrets. There are 5 Wrangler guards here (sometimes they will be sleeping). They will not initially become hostile, but will tell the player to leave and follow them around until they leave the area. To the right will be a hub to other rooms, which there are 2 bathrooms that are directly across from each other with a few first aid boxes in them. There are 2 sleeping areas with personal footlockers with very low-rewarding loot. When entering the room, just keep heading right, up ahead, which will lead to a room filled with a lot of file cabinets that contains metal crates, a cabinet and a gun cabinet.
Player's roomEdit
On the second level there is a door that leads to the player room, which the player can gain access to once they've completed the Debt Collector quest. The room is a small room, with torn wallpapers, has 4 medium-sized white plant pots, 6 ceiling lamps (which only 3 work, the rest are broken), a queen sized bed, some shelves that stores some small scorched books, and a big painting frame that has only little bits of a torn painting and 2 desks. This room used to be owned by Caleb McCaffery. The Courier has the option to kill Caleb in the quest Debt Collector, or as an alternative, convince him to hand over his hat (as required as proof of his death) and let him go free. Though the Courier can sleep here, taking any items here will be considered as theft, and the player will lose Karma.
- Games
- The Atomic Wrangler offers Blackjack, Roulette, and Slots.
- The Atomic Wrangler pays 6:5 on blackjack, and the dealer must draw to 16.
- Rewards and Ban
As the player earns chips, the casino offers increasing gifts:
- 1,250+ chips: beer
- 2,500+ chips: whiskey & dapper gambler hat
- 3,750+ chips: absinthe, Rum & Nuka & dapper gambler suit
After the player earns 5,000+ chips, they will be banned from playing games in the Atomic Wrangler casino. They can still use its other functions, like the bar and the services of the prostitutes (if the Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest has been completed), but they cannot win any more money. This ban is permanent. If the player breaks the house limit before getting any comp gifts (by getting a large win) they will not receive any comps they have missed. As there is no floor manager, the casino comp gifts are awarded directly to the player upon reaching each winning milestone, and play is still interrupted by the character being forced out of whatever game they were playing.
- Francine Garret
- James Garret
- Henry Jamison
- Hadrian (before Talent Pool, after Talent Pool, he will be located in The Aces in The Tops)
- Caleb McCaffery (Upon first visiting the Atomic Wrangler casino. Afterwards he'll become the final target during the Debt Collector side quest and will relocate to the Strip.)
After Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest:
- Fisto
- Santiago, Old Ben, or both (see Wang Dang Atomic Tango)
- Beatrix Russell
- Henry Jamison
|The following is based on Fallout: New Vegas cut content and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
Originally escorts were supposed to appear here. They would have been both male and female and wearing sexy sleepwear, but were scrapped in favor of the Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest.
|End of information based on Fallout: New Vegas cut content.
Notable lootEdit
- Nuka-Cola Victory on the third level in Garrets' room, on a shelf.
Related questsEdit
- The casino's crier can be found outside advertising the casino to the public.
- Despite Atomic Wrangler's reputation as a free-swinging brothel, dialogue options with Francine Garret that would suggest the same and sex-noises coming through the walls of most rooms, there seem to be no prostitutes in the casino beyond ones the player recruits in the Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest. After finishing the quest, the Courier can have sex with either ghoul cowgirl Beatrix Russell, Santiago/Old Ben (depending on decisions during the quest), or the sex-bot Fisto.
- Like all the other casinos in the game, the amount of money kept in the cashier's office is surprisingly small. Robbing the cashier nets (randomly) a few dozen pre-War money and around a hundred caps. (Francine Garret will carry the key for the cashier's office)
- The Atomic Wrangler casino doesn't have a table manager like the other casinos. When the Courier has reached a money target while gambling, a jackpot sound will be heard, automatically winning the appropriate prize.
- Exiting from dialogue with Fisto will give the Courier 10 bottle caps. You can repeat this as many times as you like.
- Being banned from the casino by gambling does not affect the progress of completing The Courier Who Broke the Bank.
Behind the scenesEdit
- The logo of the Atomic Wrangler is a reference to a scene in the film Dr. Strangelove in which Major T. J. "King" Kong rides a falling nuclear bomb like a rodeo cowboy.
- Atomic Wrangler is based on the real world location Atomic Liquors, located on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas. Interestingly, the Nevada Test Site is located 60 miles (96 km) to the northwest and patrons were able to watch the first of many nuclear test launches from the restaurant's rooftop on January 27, 1951.[2]
- Playstation 3 Once a player attempts to go to the second floor, or perhaps attempts to lockpick the offices/rooms, a bug may occur that interferes with interactions with non-player characters inside of the Atomic Wrangler. Speaking with Francine Garret or the Currency Exchange clerk may result in a locked dialogue, and the only action that can be made is dropping inventory items from your apparel(by hitting square, the Pip-Boy doesn't actually come up). Once your apparel inventory is empty (not to include what is equipped) the dialogue will unlock and allow you to finish the conversation however you choose. This may also interfere with any dialogue with James Garret, as it appears that he will have no dialogue options beyond just greeting you. A simple solution to the problem with the dialogue lock/inventory dump is to approach the non-player characters that the bug affects with your apparel inventory empty save for what you want equipped. This allows uninterrupted dialogue.[verified]
- PC Playstation 3 Once you enter the Atomic Wrangler and subsequently leave you will still hear the sounds of the casino's patrons in the background.[verified]
- PC Once you enter the Atomic Wrangler you may encounter a large frame rate drop. If this happens turning around and facing the door has been known to stop it, however running around backwards can get quite irritating.[verified]
- PC Xbox 360 A bug can occur where you will not be able to enter the atomic wrangler, clearing cache does not work. The black screen permanent crash can be fixed if you wear 'Caleb McCaffery's Hat' before entering the atomic wrangler.[verified]
- Xbox 360 After completing the quest "Wang Dang Atomic Tango", if you acquired Santiago and Old Ben, both will show up at the Wrangler. You can only solicit Santiago's services, Ben will just sit at the counter. If you open a dialogue with Ben, you cannot ask for his services, but you can go through the initial quest dialogue with him. You have the option of telling him that James Garret is looking for someone to work for him.[verified]
- Playstation 3 Xbox 360 Sometimes you may not receive the 'prize' for winning chips from the slot machine, even after exceeding the limit (ex: 1250 chips) [verified]
- PC Playstation 3 If you're given the free room in the wrangler, prostitutes will not visit the player there, and you cannot purchase a room for them to visit. (Santiago and Fisto work in 18.104.22.1685. This bug seems specific to Beatrix Russell. Additionally, Old Ben can never be hired).[verified]
- Playstation 3 Xbox 360 Once the player enters the Atomic Wrangler, all non-player character's within the building may automatically become hostile.[verified]
- Xbox 360 Entering the Garrets room upstairs can cause the game to freeze on the loading screen.[verified]
- Playstation 3 Xbox 360 Once you recruited Fisto to work with the Garrets, you can talk with him and he will offer you his services for 10 caps. if you refuse, you will be awarded 10 caps. You can do this whenever you want and get as many caps as you want. (Confirmed on the patch 22.214.171.1245)[verified]
- PC Playstation 3 Xbox 360 Entering a room upstairs, you might find yourself locked in the room. You cannot pick the lock, as when attempting to open the door, it says it cannot be lock picked and you must use a key. No patch is known yet to fix this, so every time you enter The Atomic Wrangler, it is highly suggested you save your game upon entering.[verified]
- Playstation 3 If Beatrix Russell is hired she will never show up at your room and you cannot re-hire her again.[verified]
- PC Most of the guards in The Atomic Wrangler don't seem to "see" the player. The player will often remain "hidden", even while in plain sight of the guards. This seems especially consistent with the guards that run up when you are in an area that you shouldn't be.[verified]
- PC All of the gamblers, the card dealer, and the roulette dealer in the blackjack and roulette area can be killed without causing anyone else to go red, and without any faction penalty, as long as they are killed with a silenced weapon from behind and the player is crouching. This is the case even if the guards and cashier are all watching, and regardless of if the player is "hidden". A Karma penalty will still result.[verified]
- Xbox 360 The game might crash whenever you win any leave either the blackjack table or the slots with a large amount of caps earned. this can be avoided by briefly leaving either game after each progressive win (roughly 200 caps).[verified]

KINGMAN — In an effort to improve fishing and eliminate an expanding white perch population — an aquatic nuisance species (ANS) — Kingman State Fishing Lake (SFL) is scheduled to be drained and renovated this fall. Periodic renovations are standard practice in small lakes when fish populations became unbalanced due to expansion of undesirable fish species. Kingman SFL has been drained and rehabilitated six times since 1947. Currently, the majority of the fish biomass in the lake is composed of common carp, gizzard shad, and white perch. The quality and quantity of sport fish has decreased in the lake, and the fishery is not currently meeting the needs of anglers. Angler use in 2011 was approximately one-third of that seen during the last angler survey at Kingman in 1999.
Biologist believe hot, dry weather has created the best conditions for renovating this fish population because the drought has dried up many upstream pools that may have harbored undesirable fish species. After the lake is drained, the existing water in the lake basin will be treated with rotenone, a fish toxicant. Because Kingman is an ANS-designated water due to white perch, fish salvage will not be allowed, reducing the risk of white perch transfer into non-infested waters.
Dewatering of the lake will begin in mid-August. During renovation, a number of lake improvement projects will take place, including fish habitat placement, boat ramp extension, and chemical treatment of problematic shoreline vegetation. Upon refilling of the lake, largemouth bass, northern pike, bluegill, and channel catfish will be restocked.
"Hopefully, fall rains and increased spring flow will fill the lake by spring of 2013," says Sean T. Lynott, Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism's regional fisheries supervisor for southern Kansas. "After the renovation, the lake will not be closed to fishing because some adult fish will be stocked immediately to prey on any undesirable fish not eliminated by the chemical treatment. Additionally, the newly-stocked fish should grow quickly without competition from rough fish, so fishing should quickly improve in the years to come."

The first reports of completed corn planting are coming in. A central Illinois grower e-mailed today that he just finished planting his largest corn crop acreage ever and he did it in six days. He anticipates an excellent crop because it was planted just prior to the optimum planting date for his area of May 10.
He also noted that in his neighborhood, some growers planted corn in early April. Those seeds rotted and the growers just finished replanting those fields.
Just over a week ago, less than 10% of the Midwest corn crop was in the ground. However, an agronomist told me that once there was a break in the weather, the entire crop could be planted in 10 days. This prediction was pretty close.
Now, soybean planting starts.
Growers struggling to get their crop in the ground may want to consider upgrading planters. To help you make your decision, read some of the articles from Farm Industry News that look at new planters and features to consider, like http://farmindustrynews.com/planters/how-buy-your-next-planter and http://farmindustrynews.com/planters/new-row-crop-planters.

Mike Perucca was heading to a medical call Sunday night in the town of St. Joseph when another emergency caught his attention before he got out of his North Hudson neighborhood.
"I noticed an abnormal amount of smoke in the area," he said.
It didn't take long for the St. Joe first responder - who also works as a Hudson firefighter - to determine the smoke was coming from a garage fire at 700 Fourth St. N. Perucca, who's also the city of Hudson's fire inspector, noticed an orange glow in the garage as he approached the house just before 10:30 p.m. Nov. 12.

He stopped, reported the fire to dispatch, then rushed to the door.
Hudson Fire Chief Scott St. Martin said the residents, Tony and Jane Zappa, had been asleep at the time. They were awakened by Perucca banging on the door and ringing the doorbell.
Perucca said the house was already filling with smoke as the attached garage burned, but the couple got out without any injuries.
The firefighters said the house was not equipped with a smoke detector.
"He did a great job," St. Martin said of Perucca. "It was a very good outcome which could have potentially gone very bad."
Perucca, a 10-year veteran of the fire department, brushed aside any notions of heroism.
"It could have been anyone driving by," he said. "Just happened to be me."
St. Martin said the garage sustained heavy fire damage, though damage to the house was limited to smoke impact. A "textbook" attack by firefighters kept the blaze from damaging the living space, he said.
"The crew did a really nice job," St. Martin said.
As for the medical call in St. Joe, records show three other units responded there while Perucca tended to the North Hudson fire.
North Hudson Police Chief Mark Richert said he hopes to recognize Perucca for his actions at the December village board meeting.

Maddon likes the way Rays look on defense
ST. PETERSBURG -- Tuesday's season opener featured a host of quality defensive plays by the Rays -- most notably those made by Sam Fuld and Evan Longoria.
And overall the team looks solid in the field.
"When you look out at the field and you feel like it's quality at every spot, that's really a nice feeling," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "We have quality at every spot, even when we move things around."
Last season's Rays experienced a meteoric fall in the field, dropping from the best fielding percentage in the American League in 2011 to the worst in 2012. Now, with Longoria back and a few additions, the Rays look ready to be in a position to move back to the top of the class on defense.
"We've fed off our defense a lot historically," Maddon said. "That's just how we play. I really think those were exceptional plays [in Tuesday's loss to the Orioles]. You make one or two a night and that's a lot. But normally in the past, when we've had really good seasons, we've fed off those defensive moments. And I thought we did [Tuesday] night."
Not only does quality defense give the offense a boost and save runs, Maddon pointed out it "also keeps pitchers in the game longer" by helping to keep their pitch counts down.
"It's about making plays like [the ones made Tuesday], but it's also about making plays in general," Maddon said. "If you make the plays you're supposed to make -- don't give up baserunners -- that in itself keeps pitchers in games longer, too. So all that stuff is part of the equation."
When asked if he would prefer a team that made web gems constantly or one that made the routine play with consistency, Maddon went with the latter.
"I'll take that every day of the week," Maddon said. "I mean the exceptional play can sometimes spark an offense. There's no doubt. I really believe that, but to play [steady] defense and save our pitchers pitches permits starters to stay in games deeper and keeps the bullpen on the bench longer."

Lukasz Fabianski is fit, fresh and ready to battle Wojciech Szczesny for Arsenal's No1 shirt.
The Poland international struggled for first-team opportunities thanks to his young compatriot's consistency between the posts, making six appearances in all competitions last season.
But the 27-year-old knows better than anybody how quickly times change after losing his place to Szczesny through injury in January 2011 - and is determined to make up for lost time.
"It can change very quickly," Fabianski told Arsenal Player. "From my own experiences I know that, so I am ready to step up. I feel confident that I am able to be No 1.
"I am very happy, I must say. I had a little problem with my shoulder but so far everything has been going really well for me. I am happy with my fitness levels and the way I feel on the pitch.
"Pre-season is always a fresh start, and it is hard work for us. We have to do all of the running and gym work too, it's not like we just have to do just goalkeeping! It has been good work over the past few weeks."
Fabianski says the team's training methods have been heavily weighted towards positioning, not least the goalkeepers themselves.
"At the moment I would say we are especially focusing - particularly us goalkeepers - on positioning ourselves in certain situations," said the Pole. "We are doing a lot of work with the 'vipers' that let us build up power in our legs, so everything that can help us improve.
"I didn't have too many opportunities to play last season but I am always focused and looking to improve, especially dealing with crosses because I think that is really important for a goalkeeper."

Would it be worth it to go to a t4 school if it meant graduating without a cent of debt?
Is it worth waiting two-three years to finish a bachelors to be able to go somewhere else?
What are the chances that I'll get a 100% scholarship somewhere else?
I admire your spirit, but take on the debt and get the BEST legal education you can get, not the cheapest. In this and many other things in life, you get what you pay for.
Are there any other schools that accept associate's degrees?
$200,000? I didn't even know you could make that kind of money doing this.
I've been waitressing through school and taking home 3G a month sounds like heaven.
My real issue is the time constraints. Debt happens but is it worth waiting tables for 2-3 more years while getting a bachelors at OU - barely scraping by - all in the hopes of getting into a better school?
It just seems like the years it could take to finish the pre-law side would be better spent gaining experience on the other end.. right?
I guarantee, with your GPA and LSAT, if you go to Cooley, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
Who created this fiction that if someone goes to a Tier II instead of a Tier III or IV that the quality of instruction and experience is going to be magically better?

Vincent Price was right: "No mere mortal can resist the evil of the Thriller" -- even after the funk of almost 30 years.
Yes, 2013 will mark three decades since Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video stalked into the national psyche and, eventually, into the Library of Congress as "the most famous music video of all time."
The zombie song-and-lurch remains as popular as ever because of a growing interest in learning the dance steps to perform at wedding receptions, school programs, civic flash mobs -- even while killing time in prison, as a group of Filipino convicts did in 2007, in a video that's garnered more than 51 million views.
"I don't think 'Thriller' ever died, no pun intended," said Monica Mohn, a former ballroom dancing champion in Minneapolis who is teaching more than a dozen "Thriller" classes this month, mostly through community education. Some students grew up with the video, but others weren't even alive when it first aired on Dec. 2, 1983. The current zombie craze also is a factor.
But mostly, weirdly, credit the weddings.
Mohn recalled describing something in the video to one group, "and they looked at me and said, 'What video?' They only knew the dance from wedding receptions."
Last week, Mohn taught the dance to a group of teachers at Plymouth Creek Elementary School, who will perform it at the school's fall festival this month. The students spanned decades, from new to retired teachers. After 1 1/2 hours, they had the moves down, thanks to lots of repetition to create what Mohn called "muscle memory."
Marc Wegner, a third-grade teacher, sported a sheen of sweat at the break. "I'm not as rhythmically gifted as some," he said, laughing. "The steps go by really fast."
Breaking it down
The dance isn't a dead (sorry) ringer for Jackson's "Thriller" video. "It couldn't be," Mohn said. "That's a 14-minute story and is very complex." What she does, as dance instructors nationwide do, is piece together iconic parts of the video to make a sort of "homage to Michael Jackson." Stomps are expected. The twitches? Crucial. "And you need the claws," she said.
Mohn breaks down the dance into discrete portions, creating a story with cues to help students remember the order of the moves.
"If you can count to eight, you can do 'Thriller,'" she told the group, then moved them through the opening zombie steps (forward four, backward four, repeat). Her arms flailed menacingly as she stomped through the steps, hunched over and writhing, while the teachers looked as if they were shuffling through the school lunch line. But over the course of the class, their inner zombies began to emerge.
The signature "twitch" came next -- a sharp flinch of the shoulder on beats one, five and seven.
Mohn then led them through the "surfer dude" move, the "ripping open a bag of chips" move, then "dangling dinosaur" and "cheerleader" moves (inspired by bad movie matinees).
Next was the "exhausted drop," in which they were directed to bend from the waist and lunge to one side (two, three, four) then shift their weight to the other leg and, on two, suddenly snap their heads up "like you're selecting your next victim." (three, four).
As the "Thriller" refrain poured from the boombox, it was time for "the Michael," a move that started benignly ("Shift your weight to your right leg") before Mohn asked the teachers to fully commit themselves to the moment: "Squeeze your butt cheeks as hard as you can. That's going to make your hip pop right out."
On the eight count, that sounded like, "One, squeeze, three, squeeze, five, squeeze, drop and look."
At this point, everyone began to appreciate what an amazing performer Michael Jackson was.
After that, Mohn demonstrated "the claw" move, which segued into a stomp and a turn that left the zombies facing the left wall of the gym. They began the sequence of steps again, eventually turning to the back wall, then to the right wall and finally ending up facing front as Vincent Price's inimitable cackle reverberated off the gym mats.
The deader they got, the better they looked.
"There's usually a moment," Mohn said later, "when you can see that someone is fulfilling their dream of being the dancer they always wanted to be. And that's wonderful."
Why 'Thriller'?
Over the years, some cities began staging "Thriller" re-enactments for Halloween. In 2007, a dance event called Thrill the World began in Canada. More than 1,700 people in 17 countries participated, and the event has become an annual undertaking (sorry!), with the added motivation of breaking the world record for simultaneously dancing zombies.
"It strikes a chord with people," Mohn said of the continuing popularity. Some people want to learn it for a specific occasion, while others just have it on their bucket list. "The best ones are the intergenerational groups, where you have the grandfather who has no idea what this is, with the mom who grew up with the song, who brings in her kids, and they're all learning it together."
As the Plymouth Creek teachers wrapped up, they already were brainstorming how to perfect their zombie look. "Just get some old clothes you can shred," said Jane Panning-Miller, who teaches third grade and, it must be said, does a mean "Michael." "Like that gray sweater you have," she said, looking at Wegner, who immediately protested: "Hey, I still wear that!"
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the Thriller

Ample flu vaccine is expected this year, said Mike Oricko, health commissioner at the Fulton County Health Department.
"This year there should be plenty of vaccine available for everyone 6 months of age and older. There are no restrictions anymore as to who can receive vaccine."
The Health Department begins its vaccination campaign Sept. 22 and is offering clinics by appointment, walk-in clinics, clinics for children and their parents, clinics in county communities and a drive-thru clinic in the Health Department parking lot.
The clinic in Fayette is scheduled Nov. 1 and clinic in Lyons is planned Oct. 26.
Each flu season the World Health Organization (WHO) monitors the circulating flu strains around the world and decides which strains will go into the next year's vaccine. This year the flu vaccine contains H1N1, H3N2 and an influenza B virus and is the same vaccine as last year.
Several years ago a new high-dose flu vaccine was introduced for people 65 years of age and older. Studies have found that older adults were not responding as well to the standard-dose influenza vaccine so this higher dose vaccine was developed. It has a slightly different formulation to boost immunity levels in older citizens. This age group typically has a higher rate of flu-related illness, hospitalization and death.
"Because this vaccine has been well tolerated", Oricko said, "we will be using it to vaccinate all adults over the age of 65, but persons will have the option of receiving the standard formulation if they choose".
The cost of the flu shot is $20 for adults and $10 for children ages six months through 18 years, but no one will be turned away because of inability to pay. Hi-dose flu vaccine will cost $35 per dose but for those with Medicare Plan B coverage, the cost will be billed to Medicare. Medicaid will be accepted.
If you have an insurance plan that replaces your Medicare B, you should consider receiving your vaccination through your health care provider to assure coverage. Most private physicians also offer seasonal flu shots to their patients.
FluMist, an intranasal flu vaccine, will also be offered to healthy individuals between the ages of 2 and 49 years. This may be of interest to those who want to protect themselves from the flu but fear getting a shot. The cost of the FluMist is the same as the flu shot.
The Fulton County Health Department will be offering flu shots at the 606 S. Shoop Ave. location and at other locations with dates and times listed below. The complete schedule is also posted on the web at www.fultoncountyhealthdept.com.
• APPOINTMENTS—For clinics by appointment, call 419/337-0915. Adults are preferred. Clinics are scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 3 p.m. Sept. 22, and from 7 to 11 a.m. Sept. 27.
• DRIVE-THRU CLINIC—A drive-through clinic is scheduled in the health department parking lot from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Sept. 22. It is by appointment only. Any adult welcome, but preference given to adults who have difficulty walking or standing in line; adults over the age of 65; and children with mobility issues.
• CHILDREN—Children's clinics, and their parents, also, are planned on three days: from 2 to 6 p.m. Oct. 13, Oct. 27 and Nov. 10.
• WALK-IN—Walk-In clinics for adults are scheduled from 10 a.m. until noon and 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 29; and 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Nov. 8. at the Fulton County Senior Center; noon to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 19 at Delta Open Door; noon to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 19 at Swanton Public Library; noon to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 25 at Archbold Library; noon to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 26 at the Lyons Fire Station; noon to 5:30 p.m. Nov. 1 at the Fayette Opera House; and noon to 6 p.m. Nov. 2 at the Evergreen Community Library.

Local youth speak out against tobacco use
Jefferson County Commissioners issued a proclamation naming Monday, March 17, Kicks Butts Day in Jefferson County to raise awareness and acknowledge activism by local youth to stand up and speak out against tobacco use.
Organized by the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, Kick Butts Day is an annual, nationwide celebration of youth leadership and activism in the fight against tobacco. During the week, youth will encourage their peers to stay tobacco-free and educate their communities about the tobacco industry's harmful marketing practices.
Connie Berry, community relations manager at Julie Rogers Gift of Life, said "The Gift of Life Youth Council is comprised of more than 50 students from 22 regional high schools in Southeast Texas. The youth chose Kick Butts Day as their spring project to help encourage their peers to reject tobacco and the tobacco industry's deceptive marketing, particularly to those under the age of 18."
Berry said the students' goal as school leaders is to make daily school announcements and broadcasts warning of the dangers of tobacco use and citing statistics that back up those warnings. Tina Nguyen and Hannah McGowin, both seniors at Nederland High School, and Joseph Trahan, a senior at Hamshire-Fannett High School, were present at Jefferson County Commissioners Court on Monday to represent the Gift of Life Youth Council and share information regarding the dangers of tobacco use. Nguyen is student body president at Nederland High School and Joseph Trahan is student body president at Hamshire-Fannett. McGowin serves on the student council at Nederland High.
"It is something that is preventable and causes many diseases that we can prevent," said Nguyen, in response to why she decided to speak out against tobacco use.
"Eight hundred million packs of cigarettes are consumed by kids under the age of 18 on an annual basis," said Regina Rogers, Gift of Life founder and chair, citing statistics from a study published in the American Journal of Public Health. "It is estimated that more than 6 million of those individual kids will die prematurely from smoking at some point in their lives. It's a hard habit to break, and we're here trying to help."
This year, Kick Butts Day comes as new information reaffirms the urgent need for action. The U.S. is marking the 50th anniversary of the first Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health, and a new report released in January found that smoking is even more hazardous than previously thought. Key findings of the report include:
• Each year, smoking kills 480,000 people in the U.S. and costs the nation at least $289 billion in health care bills and other economic losses.
• Without urgent action to reduce smoking, 5.6 million U.S. children alive today will die prematurely from smoking-caused disease. That includes 498,000 children in Texas alone.
• Tobacco marketing causes kids to start and continue using tobacco products
In Texas alone, tobacco use claims 23,900 lives and costs $8.85 billion in health care bills each year. Currently, 17.4 percent of the state's high school students smoke.
"I'm so proud of these young people," said Rogers. "This program is something that we believe in very strongly. This is the one preventable area that can really make a tremendous impact on the health care costs in this country and in Jefferson County. The tobacco companies spend billions of dollars ... to convince young people to begin this habit."

Peter Hujar's work might be firmly rooted in time and place — the New York of the 1970s and 1980s — but it nonetheless has a timeless quality that goes beyond both. It's not hard to see why: At his most elemental, he was a classical portrait photographer; one who despite choosing diverse, often shocking, subjects was relatively conservative with composition.
His most widely known pieces, a 1975 portrait of friend Susan Sontag lying on a bed and Candy Darling on her Deathbed - Darling, also a friend, was born James Lawrence Slattery and was part of Andy Warhol's superstar set — exemplify this approach: Hujar gets us close to both, but we are never too intimate. As Sontag stares into the distance, and Darling beyond us, it is as if they are detached from their surroundings. And though posed, neither is performing.
It is often said that death was not far from his lens. As a gay man living through the height of the AIDS crisis in New York, he was part of a community that came face to face with its own mortality. Indeed, the single book he published in his lifetime, Portraits in Life and Death, contains an introduction by Sontag where she says that photography "converts the whole world into a cemetery."
Sadly, Hujar and his lover, artist David Wojnarowicz, were among the many people lost to the disease in the city (Hujar died in 1987, Wojnarowicz in 1992). Throughout their lives the two were often the subject of each other's work. In a heartbreaking and poignant piece, Wojnarowicz famously photographed Hujar just after he died.
And yet an exhibition currently running at Pace/MacGill Gallery curates Hujar's work in such a way as to allow a certain joy to emerge. His portraits of director John Waters and performer Divine are contemplative, even blissful, while Drag Queen with Curly Hair is as playful as it is candid. At the same time, Woolworth Building, Draped Male Nude and Running Horse are all strikingly beautiful in their own way, and show us how his careful formalism allowed him to revel in any subject.
Vince Aletti - photography critic with The New Yorker — was a friend of Hujar, and the subject of a 1975 portrait included in the show. Aletti tells TIME that he remembers Hujar as an often quiet, friendly photographer while in studio — one dedicated to the task. The key to much of Hujar's photographic success? His relationship with subjects: "there was an intimacy," Aletti adds.
Others argue that he was not technically as gifted as his contemporaries and those he influenced - Robert Mapplethorpe and Nan Goldin, for example. And though he never quite made it into the public consciousness as they did, it is wonderful to see that he has since gained steady recognition as one of the most important artists of his generation.
The exhibition Peter Hujar runs at Pace/MacGill until April 20, 2013

With the BC Racing Wheel TM 04 you can have the best of both
worlds. The TM 04 is a perfect wheel with both concavity and a
classic big lip design. Not only
does this wheel look great it also comes with endless possibilities for
car options and fitments. But what really stands out about this wheel is
its performance aspects combined with having no compromises in its
aesthetic characteristics. You get a great price, race quality strength
and lightness, and a look that you and the rest of the world won't
Usually when a wheel is
made to look good, the weight and strength is decreased in order to make
that show quality finish happen. But BC Racing Wheels are
different. The TM 04 is designed in a way that keeps it
light but extremely durable. It's a CNC process called forging.
The TM 04 wheel made out of two solid blocks of T6061 aluminum,
which guarantees huge amounts of strength. This allows for more
aggressive lines and bevels to be made that may make the wheel thinner,
but because the wheel is fully forged there is no worry about the
structural integrity of the wheel being compromised. And there you
have it, a wheel that will drop your jaw and take anything that you're
willing to throw at it.
you're interested in getting a brand new set of BC Racing Wheels TM 04's, then please give us a call at 714-582-3330

racing wheel. And with a lighter wheel, you'll have much less

agility and quickness you'll feel from your fully forged wheels!

Manufacturing Process
It all goes back to the way the wheels are
made. They are completely forged with a CNC out of strong aluminum
which allows for streamlined and aggressive designs to be made without
sacrificing the structural integrity of the wheels. That is why BC
Racing Wheels has such a great reputation. They have great looking
wheels that can actually stand up to racing conditions. It's proven
that they are real racing wheels through all of their sponsored circuit
and drift drivers who use the exact same products that will end up on
your everyday car.
Race Tested
They aren't called BC
Racing Wheels for nothing. All wheels are stress tested in the
factory and brought out on the race track by BC's sponsored drift and
circuit drivers in order to find weak spots in their designs or
implement new ideas in wheel technology. These wheels really are
used on real race cars! One of BC's Formula Drift teams has a 700+
hp BMW M3, driven by Chelsea DeNofa, equipped with their RA 05 wheels,
and they never have to think twice about having problems with their
wheels facing up to the stresses of one of the most demanding
motorsports on wheels and tires.

a wheel that will give you everything you want for your SUV or sports
car, you've got to go with the BC Racing Wheels TM 04. With

The Flex 4 and Flash Builder 4 betas have now been out for a few weeks and we're very excited to see so many folks playing with them, asking questions on the forums, and posting examples of what they've done. From the time we first started showing Gumbo we've been monitoring feedback, especially around the experience of using the Spark and Halo components together. While we know that in general using both models together is possible, we've decided that there are a number of smaller things that we can do (many suggested by you) to make the experience that much better for both new and existing users.
We've therefore decided that we need some more time to take your feedback into account, and are going to release a second public beta this fall. This will give us an opportunity to make the enhancements required, and get additional feedback from the community. Given the second beta, we anticipate the release of Flex 4 and Flash Builder 4 to move from late 2009 to early 2010.
On the Open Source Flex SDK side, we're planning to host another open iteration meeting in the next few weeks to discuss all of the changes that we're considering. We'll also be looking for feedback on things we can do in our docs and messaging to make sure that users from all backgrounds are successful in adopting Flex 4. Stay tuned here for the announcement of that meeting. And keep using the beta, filing bugs, and communicating with us via the forums!

|Rich chocolate chunks, melted marshmallows, oreo cookie chunks wrapped in a buttery flavored chocolate cookie.
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped oreo cookies
1/2 cup milk chocolate chunks
1 cup mini marshmallows
optional 1/2 cup chopped peanuts, walnuts or pecans
Microwave semisweet chocolate morsels in a small microwave-safe glass bowl at HIGH for 1 minute, stirring every 30 seconds. Beat butter and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; add eggs, 1 at a time, and beat well. Finally blend in the vanilla and melted chocolate.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add this slowly to chocolate mixture, continuously stirring until well blended. Stir in the chopped oreo's and 1/2 cup milk chocolate chunks.
Now take a baking sheet lined with butter paper. Spoon two tbsp of the dough onto the paper sheets. Press 3 marshmallows into the center of each cookie dough.Preheat oven to 350° and bake for 8 to10 minutes or until set. Remove and allow to cool on the wire rack.
Store in an air-tight container between pieces of wax paper. These cookies do not last long and will eaten quickly! These cookies can't be frozen, the marshmallows will get sticky. By the way, these taste good without anything in them also, the basic dough is delicious!
