CHARLES TOWN - Attorney General Patrick Morrisey issued his first formal opinion Thursday evening, and it was the information the Jefferson County Commission had been waiting for since Jan. 18. The commission has been unsure of what steps the state will or will not allow for it to take to find a replacement for Robert "Bobby" Shirley who resigned in January.
Five questions were presented to Morrisey's office from the commission: is there a timeframe in which the commission must appoint; when should an election be held to fill an unexpired term; can a special election be held; if a special election is held, when is it allowed to be held; and how should candidates be nominated.
In his six-page response to the commission, Morrisey indicated that the county commission should act as quickly as possible in filling the current vacancy. According to commission president Dale Manuel, this means the county should look to make an appointment.
"I don't want to delay this, and we should go ahead and carry on with the process, in my opinion," Manuel said Friday.
The commission is required to officially post for interested residents of the county to apply for this position. Applicants are required to be of the Democratic party and reside in Jefferson County.
Interim manager of the department Jesse Jones said he is not interested in pursuing the sheriff's position, but is comfortable handling the department until an appointment can be made.
According to Morrisey's opinion, when a position is vacated prior to the general election, an appointment must be made, and that appointment will expire at the time of the next general election, which is in 2014.
Options have previously been discussed among the commissioners of allowing Jones to continue in his current role until the next general election or holding a special election in place of making an appointment. Manuel said due to Morrisey's response, the commission will not be able to pursue either of those options.
Currently, the county commission is not planning to hold a special meeting, but rather will take action on the path forward during its next regular meeting.
At last Thursday's meeting, prior to Morrisey's released opinion, the commissioners decided to carry forth the topic as an agenda item until a decision on how to proceed could be reached.

The company that redefined Internet search is putting up US$10 million via its philanthropic arm, Google.org, to entice someone with the next great idea to ignite mass commercialization of plug-in cars.
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (plug-in hybrid or PHEV) is a vehicle whose battery is charged via a standard 120 volt outlet. Unlike hybrids such as the Toyota Prius, the plug-in does not use its engine to charge the battery, which allows for zero-emission short distance trips.
There are no PHEV automobiles commercially available, but Chevrolet has a concept car and Toyota says it is interested in spearheading the PHEV revolution.
But what Google.org wants is input from the private sector, entrepreneurs and for-profit companies willing to grab a piece of the US$10 million as an incentive to get something into production to promote social and environmental change. Google.org calls its mission focused investing and it is part of its RechargeIT initiative that began in June.
Google.org has put out RFPs around ways to advance sustainable transportation solutions.
"We need catalytic investments to support technologies, products and services that are critical to accelerating plug-in vehicle commercialization," the company wrote on its Web site.
The company says the integration of hybrid cars with the electric power grid could reduce gasoline consumption by 85 billion gallons per year. It adds that the figure is equal to a 27 percent reduction in total U.S. greenhouse gases, 52 percent displacement potential of U.S. oil imports, and US$270 billion avoided in gasoline expenses
The RFP covers ideas around PHEVs, electric vehicles and vehicle-to-grid solutions.
The company offers examples of companies that might want to apply for a cut of the US$10 million including early stage technology ventures coming emerging from a university or lab looking to develop and commercialize a product such as a new type of battery. Another possibility is a company active in the automotive or power space that could modify an existing product that addresses a key need in one of the vehicle classifications.
Google.org is asking for proposals of no more than five pages that include biographies of key personnel, product development plans, and funding needs among other details.
Judging criteria will include potential for mass commercialization, quality of planning, potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and other impacts on sustainability.
Proposals are due October 22 and can be submitted online.
"We realize that this type of open call for proposals is not the usual model for investment, but we wanted to use a process that was open to new ideas and new entrants," Goggle.org said in an e-mail to media outlets.

Today Samsung AV product lead Chris Moseley had comments about Apple's rumored entrance into the television marketplace that sound eerily similar to that which Palm CEO Ed Colligan's said a few years back about how Apple's ability to simply walk into this market and figure it out like they had managed to do after years of research.

This is *EXACTLY* the market that Apple belongs in, the appliance business. They've been turning computers into appliances for years now.
This market is *NOT* about quality displays, it's about home entertainment. Building quality displays is old hat. "Home entertainment" means watching what you want, when you want, where you want -- integrating this with your laptop, phone and tablet is just a part of it.
Okay. This market was made for Apple. I think that is true. To be honest though, I won't be interested in it if I have to jail break it to make it work the way I want or pay another monthly fee.
So, yeah...made for Apple, made for me....we'll see.

Stretch Bengaline
Added Jun 9, 2011
by lila-1
Auckland, New Ze...
I love stretch bengaline. It's stetchy, but stiff enough to hold in wobbly bits.
I made this dress for my sister's wedding in January this year. I constructed the whole pattern myself, and it took AGES. I wont be doing that again.
The birds, Dodo and Noodle, are my little helpers, who chew up my patterns and crap on my fabric.
Material Notes
stretch bengaline
white stuff is really expensive wedding dress satin – i should have checked the price tag before i got the lady to cut it :(

Hot dress!
Jun 12, 2011, 05.18 PMby missjibba
This is stunning. I also envy your avian accessories!
Jun 11, 2011, 01.33 AMby grisarm
Just beautiful!
Jun 10, 2011, 01.15 AMby koobakii
Gorgeous dress, perfect for the occasion. I am a huge fan of bengaline also, and am finishing off a fitted sheath dress with peter pan collar with the smallest godet you've ever seen as I didn't have enough fabric for a proper one. Drafting is most definately worth the effort, congratulations.
Jun 9, 2011, 07.49 PMby mariposa21
Its brilliant! I love the little turn overs above the bust. And Noodle and Dodo are great names!
Jun 9, 2011, 06.00 PMby shkoober
Amazing, I would also love to get some detail shots of this dress. Great job! So glam!
Jun 9, 2011, 05.15 PMby dana-88
oohh i love it
Jun 9, 2011, 01.40 PMby artsiekat
Beautiful dress! What an amazing finished product to show for all your work. :) The birdies are pretty, too, but I'd be pretty angry if they ate my patterns or pooed on my fabric!
Jun 9, 2011, 01.34 PMby sewingfan1
Ha ha, naughty birds, luckily they didn't crap on this fabric. It's really beautiful, the colours, shape everything. I wouldn't give up on drafting your own patterns, bet it gets easier the more you do and you obviously have the skill for it. So worth the effort to get something so stunning and unique! Bet you got plenty of compliments at the wedding.
Jun 9, 2011, 10.53 AMby miss-josephine
oh my gosh its amazing, do you want to put a pattern up? AMAZING
Jun 9, 2011, 10.46 AMby ichigogirl
It looks great, totally worth the effort! Do you have any pictures of the back? The ruched detail on the side looks really interesting, I'd like to see more :-)

You have no items in your shopping cart.
We ship around the world with any of the world's trusted carriers like FedEx, UPS, DHL, EMS, TNT, and the USPS. Decisions will be based on where the package is going and how large it is. Everything that leaves our store is fully insured against loss, theft and damage during its transit so you can rest easy knowing that your investment is protected. All of our packages are insured by an independent third party insurance company. In the case of an item exceeding the limits of the insurance policy, we will use armored services such as Brinks, Malca Amit, and Ferrari Express to get your package to you on time and in immaculate condition. Again, charges for these services will apply and will be provided at the time of purchase.
Delivery Requirements Please note that due to the nature of our products and their value, every single one of the packages we send out will need an adult signature at the time of delivery. For insurance reasons, we are not able to ship our products if there isn't an adult available to sign for the package upon delivery. Shipping To Another Address Because of the heightened risk of fraud associated with shipping luxury products, Luxury Bazaar prefers to ship items to the billing addresses of their purchasers. We do however realize that there is often a desire to have the item shipped to an alternate address. If you would like that a package be shipped to an address other than your billing address, we ask that you contact your credit card company and have them add an "Alternate Shipping Address" to your account with them. It is a very simple and routine process that shouldn't take longer than a few minutes to complete. In turn, it adds a level of security to your purchase that simply isn't worth overlooking.
Customs Duty & Tax Regulations
Duty - Most international orders are subject to customs duty and tax regulations specified by the designated country, and are the sole responsibility of the customer. You may contact your local customs office for details. The average international order takes up to one week for delivery. Oversize and/or high value orders may require additional shipping charges.
We prescribe to a "No Questions Asked" return policy for all in stock items. This does not apply to items that are on memo, or special and/or custom orders. If for any reason whatsoever you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase send it back and we will refund your order. The only fees you will be responsible for are return shipping costs, and for international customers, any duties or value added taxes. Returns must be made within seven days of you receiving the product. All returns must also have a Return Authorization (RA) number. As such, to get an RA number, you'll need to get in touch with us prior to shipping it back. This number must be displayed on the outside of your box and will expedite the process. As much as we like getting gifts, any returns without an RA number will be returned to the sender. If you are planning on returning an item to us, it must be returned in its original box and with everything it came with. Returns will be credited in full minus the price of the original shipping costs and the costs associated with insuring your purchase. Credit will be issued in the same form that your payment was made. We cannot refund you cash for a purchase you made with a credit card. We expect the same level of security and shipping when you are getting the package back to us. All returns must be shipped with a traceable courier such as UPS or USPS. Do not ship via FedEx, as FedEx does not insure watches or jewelry valued above $500. Return shipment must be pre-paid and fully insured for the amount you expect credit. Collect shipping will be refused. In case of a loss or damage, customer is liable. Once you have received an RA number, the item must be shipped to us so that we receive it with 7 days. In addition to the above, the following must be taken into account depending on what you purchased from us and want to return. Watches: Watches must be returned in the original condition, with all protective plastics/tape and hang tags intact, all accessories, boxes and papers. Until you are positive you will be keeping the watch, kindly refrain from wearing it. It is almost impossible to wear a watch for even a day and for the watch not be blemished or scratched. Please do not have the bracelet sized (links removed), or any straps cut. Please note that some watches are on memo from other dealers and do not carry a return policy. You will be notified before your purchase if the selected watch meets these criteria. Jewelry: All jewelry must be returned to us in the original condition, with all the original boxes, papers, tags etc. Resizing of Rings, Bracelets, and Necklaces done by the customer voids the return policy.
Special Orders: We will gladly assist in providing special orders of items that we may not currently have in stock. Due to the specialized nature, special order items are not subject to the standard return policy. If your item is a special order item, we will notify you at the time of purchase. This mostly applies to Watches and Brand Name jewelry that is not in stock and has to be ordered. Purchases by Manufacturers: Our return policy does not apply to any purchases made by any watch manufacturer, watch brand distributors, and/or any person acting on behalf of any of these entities in any capacity. Purchases made by the aforementioned entities may not be returned for any reason under any circumstances. We believe that the conditions laid out here are very reasonable, fair and simple to adhere to. If for any reason any of these conditions can't be met, please get in touch with us as soon as possible. We are very reasonable people and are willing to listen to what you have to say, but you simply must give us a call and receive authorization before you put the product in the mail.
Luxury Bazaar guarantees that all watches and brand name jewelry sold through our website is 100% authentic and, where applicable, will include the original packaging with serial numbers and/or certificates of authenticity. We also guarantee that all watches and jewelry we sell are brand new and unused (unless otherwise stated). In fact, we are so confident in our guarantees of authenticity that we will refund double the purchase price if you get something from us that is proven to be a fake (some restrictions to this policy apply; contact us for full details). While we are NOT an authorized dealer of any of the watch or jewelry brands that we sell, we do source our watches and brand name jewelry directly through authorized dealers and distributors. We thoroughly screen all of our vendors on a regular basis to make sure that they meet the high standards we set for all our business associates. Every high-end watch and jewelry manufacturer imprints a serial number on each of their pieces for identification purposes. We guarantee that each item we sell bears the original manufacturer's serial number intact and without any alterations. In rare cases, some brand name jewelry pieces will not have a serial number, but this is only in the cases where the manufacturer themselves produced the piece without an imprint (usually due to size or design limitations).

Watches: Since we are not an authorized dealer of any of the watches we sell, the manufacturers will not honor warranties on watches bought through us. However, Luxury Bazaar provides each buyer with an equivalent warranty that mirrors the manufacturers one-to-one. In the unlikely event that something does go wrong with your watch within 2 years of the date of purchase, the watch would need to be sent back to us. Our highly qualified, professional watchmakers serve as authorized repair centers for many high-end watch manufacturers, and can repair virtually any watch using only genuine parts. However, if the defect is of a particularly serious nature, we will have the watch returned to the respective manufacturer for repair, though these manufacturers unfortunately take a minimum of 4-8 weeks to repair a watch (or longer, if parts are back ordered). Jewelry: In the unlikely event that part of your jewelry breaks within 2 years of the date of purchase, you can send it back to us and our qualified jewelers will repair the piece and get it back to you, usually within 10 days. Our Limited Warranty for Watches and Jewelry: The Luxury Bazaar warranty covers all new watches and jewelry for the period of two years from the date of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects only. The warranty does not cover damages such as scratches, finish, crystals, glass, Straps – leather, fabric or rubber, damage due to wear and tear, damage resulting from wear under conditions exceeding the watch manufacturer's water resistance limitations, and damage due to physical and/or accidental abuse. All warranty repairs must be handled directly through Luxury Bazaar. Watches opened or repaired by any other source will void all warranties. Luxury Bazaar will cover all parts and labor or replace the watch at our discretion within the warranty period. Shipping and insurance costs for warranty returns to us must be covered by the customer. Returns must be shipped via traceable courier, such as UPS, USPS or FedEx. Return shipment must be pre-paid and fully insured. Collect shipping will be refused. In case of loss or damages, customer is liable. Return shipping expenses to the customer once the watch is repaired will be covered by Luxury Bazaar. In case a repair is necessary, please call us to obtain a return authorization number. All warranty returns must have a Return Authorization Number (RA). This number must be displayed on the outside of the box. A watch returned without authorization will be refused. Please include a copy of your invoice and/or a detailed letter indicating the problem, the return address, contact phone numbers and an email address.

I was tagged by Martha to play in the Sixth Challenge started by Gnomeaggedon of Armaggedon's Coming!
So the challenge rules say:
1.Go into your image folder
2.Open the sixth sub-folder and choose the sixth image.
3.Publish the image! (and a few words wouldn't hurt, though I dare say I couldn't stop a blogger from adding a few words of their own).
4.Challenge six new bloggers.
5.Link to them.
But I am not one to play by the rules… so lets see what I can come up with. I really don't have subfolder for my WoW pictures, they just all stay there in the same place. I might have to start doing some sorting because it is getting pretty huge.
Here is the Sixth picture!
That was from our last guild meeting. It is inside of a little bar you just have to find 🙂
As soon as the meeting ended we started a bar fight and found out that you CAN puke while you are turned into a bunny. Fun times!
Now six people to challenge…

New Zealand sweep IRB awards
Dan Carter led a New Zealand clean sweep of the 2012 International Rugby Board (IRB) awards announced in London on Monday.
The fly-half was named player of the year, with Steve Hansen winning coach of the year and the All Blacks the team of the year following a 20-match unbeaten run by the world champions that only came to an end with a shock 38-21 defeat by England at Twickenham on Saturday.
That New Zealand undefeated sequence started last year, on their way to winning the World Cup, and 2012 saw New Zealand win 12 out of 14 Tests, with their only blemishes an 18-18 draw away to Australia in October and Saturday's stunning setback.
It was the second time the 30-year-old Carter, who this year returned from injury problems that saw him miss out on New Zealand's World Cup triumph, had won the IRB honour, following his success in 2005.
The other nominees for 2012 player of the year were All Blacks captain Richie McCaw, a three-time winner, England outside-half Owen Farrell — who scored 17 points against New Zealand on Saturday — and France fly-half Frederic Michalak.
This was the third straight year New Zealand had won the team award, with Hansen keeping the coaching prize in the country following the back-to-back wins of World Cup-winning boss Graham Henry.

Just a friendly reminder and re-post for readers to place their AAA election votes before the May 31st deadline.
Hello AAA Members,
It is time to vote and I think you are going to like the new, improved, streamlined on-line voting system. The candidates and their engaging/quixotic photos and their erudite/informative platform statements, and in some cases changes to bylaws will be available to you, in a direct link from the AAA website. Everything you need will open from the main page, or you can login directly through AnthroGateway and once you have selected AAA candidates through that ballot, you will go on to the section candidates on those ballots (for those you belong to) where you will be asked to vote also for bylaw changes and in one case a resolution.
As you know, because we have told you every year, it is perplexing that so few members vote (about 17% over the years). Even if you don't know any of the candidates (why should you? We are 11,000-plus members), you can read their statements and make a judgment about the commitment and talent that they will bring to AAA leadership.
Please cast your votes if only so that you can marvel at the new system in all its ease and esthetic qualities. We have Kim Baker, Lisa Myers to thank for these modernizations and as always, if you have any questions or issues with voting, please contact Kim. Any fresh ideas or feedback about the nominations process can be directed to me.
So get started by clicking here.
Debra Martin
AAA Secretary

There are few things that set me spiraling into a tizzy more than when I'm dining out with someone who refuses to tip fairly. I'm pretty certain that had I been a dining companion of this banker in Newport Beach, California, I would have gone off my rocker. The jerk is being accused of leaving his waitress a tip of 1 percent on a lunch bill for $133. Are you doing the math? That's a paltry $1.33 tip after this guy (and some of his employees) stuffed their pie-holes full of $133 worth of food. And that's NOT the worst of it ...
In addition to circling the word "tip" on the bill, the banker allegedly wrote, "Get a real job." Ugh! Doesn't it just turn your stomach to know there are such arrogant, despicable people in the world?
It should be mentioned that this story came to light after someone who was dining with the banker put the receipt on his blog; it's since been taken down, which does raise questions as to how much of this story is actually true. Update: The story has since been confirmed as a hoax. Nevertheless, there are some really crappy tippers out there, shoving expensive food down their gullets and refusing to compensate their servers appropriately. This sort of disgusting behavior must be stopped.
If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: If you can afford to go out to eat, then you can afford to leave a fair gratuity. Even if your server is having an off night, they are still providing a basic service and absolutely deserve to be paid accordingly. You certainly don't have to shell out 20 percent after a night of mediocre service; but most people would agree at least 10 percent -- 15 percent if you're a kind soul -- is more than appropriate. And if you don't, well, I'm wondering what kind of chip you have on your shoulder.
Think about it this way: No matter what our profession is, we all have off days. Maybe you spent the day gchatting with your husband instead of doing whatever it is that you do to bring in your paycheck. Does that mean you only get 1 percent of your salary? Of course not. It just means you had an unproductive day, and you'll do better tomorrow. But you aren't punished for it. Why should it be any different for those who work in the service industry? Which, by the way, is absolutely a REAL JOB.
Do you think this banker is a complete jerk?

Chris Fonseca is very funny. He also has Cerebral Palsy and is confined to a wheelchair, which is significantly less funny.
His jokes about Cerebral Palsy, however, are quite funny, and the "original sit-down comic" will have two shows at the Gig's weekly comedy night on Saturday. We expect ample laughs from an entertainer who made his TV debut as a disabled comic on "Baywatch," which, again, is very funny.

Posted Feb 18, 2001
By Andy Warren
In this article I'd like to discuss both how to use the Public Role and how
using Public may cause you more problems than it's worth by describing some
common security scenarios.
The Public role is the equivalent of the NT Everyone or Authenticated Users
group. Any user added to the database is automatically added to that role -
including the guest login if you choose to allow it. This means that any
permissions you grant to Public automatically extend to all users. Plus, you
cannot drop the Public role. Public exists to make life easy for you -
giving you an easy way to quickly add or remove permissions to all users
regardless of role membership.
Let's start with a very simple scenario - you have a database where everyone
in your company needs select, insert, and delete permissions. You can accomplish
this very quickly by granting the permissions to Public and then adding the NT
Everyone group and making it a member of Public. Quick and easy.
Then management gives you the first change. You need to give the
"Trainees" group read only access, the "AppUsers" group
select, insert, and delete permissions, and no access to anyone else. How can
you do that? Here is one way:
At this point Trainees has select only because of it's membership in Public
(which happens automatically) and AppUsers has select, insert, and delete due to
it's membership in both the AppUser role and Public. Anyone who is not a member
of Trainees or AppUsers has no access.
A few more weeks go by, management let's you know that there will be a
contractor on site for several weeks who will have a domain account for email
and will also need select only access to two of the many tables in your
database. The contractor will not be a member of Trainees or AppUsers. What do
you do? One possibility is to do this:
Hopefully you see that the problem we have is that because Public has more
than the minimum permissions we want to give the contractor, we have to use DENY
to take some away. Nothing wrong with that technique. If you don't want to use
DENY, then you have to rethink your permissions. If you start from scratch, here
is one way you might do it:
The advantage to this solution is that you permissions are very clear and
easy to follow.
The possible advantage here of course is that if you end up
creating more roles, you're betting that most of them will need at least select
access to all tables, so you can leverage the Everyone role. On the other hand,
if your design changes so that you want to remove access to one or two tables,
you can modify Everyone and the change affects all users who are a member of
Everyone (but not the contractor!).
Before you can really decide if you want to pursue this course, you probably
want to take a look at what permissions Public has right now. You can do it in
Enterprise Manager, or from Query Analyzer by running the following query:
select count(*) as PublicPermissionCount from sysprotects P inner join
sysusers U on P.Uid = U.UID inner join sysobjects O on P.ID=O.ID where P.uid=0
and o.Type<>'S' and o.Name not like 'sys%' and O.Name not like 'sync%'
If you're not familiar with the system tables sysprotects,
sysobjects, and
syspermissions you might want to take a quick look at them just to have a better
idea of how they work together. This query relies on the Public role always
having a UID of 0 in the sysprotects table. We don't want to change the permissions
on the system tables, so we use the Type field in sysobjects to filter out
our system tables. In my testing I found that the sync tables SQL creates for
replication are given permissions in Public, so we will also skip any table that
begins with sync.
You'll probably want to run this query on each database. This is an ideal
time to use the sp_msforeachdb stored procedure to save writing a cursor. If you
haven't used it before, you might want to take a look at this article by
Brian Knight.
set quoted_identifier off
exec sp_msforeachdb @Command1="select '?' as DBName, count(*) as
PublicPermissionCount from ?..sysprotects P inner join ?..sysusers U on P.Uid =
U.UID inner join ?..sysobjects O on P.ID=O.ID where P.uid=0 and o.Type<>'S'
and o.Name not like 'sys%' and O.Name not like 'sync%'
Once you've identified databases that have permissions assigned to Public,
here are the steps you need to take if you want to give the "Everyone"
role a try:
Unfortunately SQL doesn't offer the ability to easily copy permissions from
one role to another. My first solution was to script out the permissions, use
search and replace to change Public to Everyone, then run the script again. Not
bad, but clunky. Or you can click your way through the permissions dialog in
Enterprise Manager. Or you can download the script I wrote!
Ultimately the problem with assigning users to multiple roles is that
of calculating and managing effective permissions, a subject I'll address in an
upcoming article. As always, please email me if you have comments or questions!

(NewsUSA) – With summer approaching, the talk show gurus will be out in droves, sharing "insider" tips or little-known ways to best enjoy the season. What you probably won't hear them mention are the many uses of a product most of us already have in our homes.
Powder can be found in a variety of summertime sports and recreational activities. For many, it is a thing of ritual: the puff of powdered rosin that helps an All-Star pitcher gain the ideal grip on a baseball. The pre-game chalk toss in basketball, made even more popular by the sport's greatest player, LeBron James. It's even useful for billiards players and bowlers.
Powder-based products also are helpful for exercising and other common seasonal activities. Powder helps joggers avoid chafing, helps homeowners handling yard work keep their hands dry inside work gloves, and helps weekend warriors out there counteract foot and shoe odors and treat athlete's foot.
According to Pharma Tech Industries — the largest pharmaceutical contract manufacturer and packager of powder products in the world — powder products have a long list of other benefits during the warm weather season, including:
* Airplane-friendly: Most powders are exempt from the airplane carry-on "3-ounce rule" limitations on liquids and gels.
* Easily brush off sand: Savvy sun soakers keep powder in the same beach bag as their sunscreen for easy sand removal.
* Natural ant repellent: Scatter powder around house foundations and common points of insect entry, such as doors and windows. The same trick is useful for the edges of picnic tables and blankets.
* Stop floorboards from squeaking: For a quick fix, sprinkle powder between the boards that squeak.
* Get rid of greasy carpet stains: Cover unsightly stains with powder, wait six hours, then simply vacuum the stain away.
* Pet care: Dry shampoo your dog after a day of fun in the sun.

$10,000 Bronze Statue Stolen From Lolo Home
On Saturday, May 25, a valuable piece of artwork was stolen from a home on Lewis and Clark Drive in Lolo between 7:30 and 9:30 a.m..
According to Missoula county Sherriff's Department Public Information Officer Paige Pavalone, the homeowner regularly left his home during the same time period. When he returned on Saturday, however, he discovered a 200 pound jar of coins tipped over inside his home as well as other evidence that his home had been invaded.
"His dog was acting strange," Pavalone said. "He didn't notice anything missing right away, but when he went outside he noticed two blue latex gloves and a plastic axe handle in front of the door. He later discovered that a large bronze statue that was located next to the door of his residence had been stolen."
The gloves and axe handle were taken as evidence. The statue, however, is still missing.
"It's a bronze statue described as a 30 inch tall cowboy wielding a pistol and it's called 'The Ranch Hand,' Pavalone said. "It's valued at about $10,000. It's a pretty unique item. It's going to have the name Mark Patrick engraved on the bottom of it and possibly a date."
There were no eye witnesses, so there are no descriptions of either the thief or a possible escape vehicle.
Anyone with any information about this case is advised to call Crimestoppers at (406) 721-4444.

Undara Volcanic National Park
In the vast open spaces of the savanna, a sea of seasonal grasses conceals the Undara lava tube, one of the Earth's longest flows of lava originating from a single volcano. Ribbons of green remnant rainforest contrast with the surrounding dry savanna landscape, marking the course of sections of the lava tube. Caves within the tube sections are fertile pockets where rainforest plants and animals thrive.
Take a guided tour to the lava tube caves. Spend a pleasant afternoon walking around the rim of Kalkani Crater, an extinct volcano. Explore the self-guided walking trails throughout the park, ranging from short walks to a 12 kilometre return hike, following a section of historic telegraph line. Ride your mountain bike on the longer trails. Watch the sunset, while clouds of bats exit the lava tube caves. Accommodation and camping are available at the nearby resort. Access to the lava tubes is by commercial tour only.

Obsessed with genealogy
|Český Šternberk Castle, Czech Republic. Portraits of
six generations of Sterberg family in Jiří Sternberg's study.
I recently signed up for a trial membership with Ancestry.com. Maybe you've heard about it on television. They have an ad about typing your ancestor's name and seeing a little leaf sprout. When you click the leaf, it takes you to documents about your ancestor. It's an accurate advertisement -- except that it lacks a warning about developing an obsession with your family tree!
I started with a trial membership -- free for ten days. Within just a few days, Ancestry.com had my payment for a one-year subscription. I was having so much success in looking up my ancestors that I didn't want to stop. (I do realize that there are free genealogy sites, but it seems to me that Ancestry.com has a lot more sources in their databases, at present.)
Fascinating family trivia
For example, I discovered that my family is related to the Kackmeisters (through Stella Hill, a cousin of my grandfather) and to the Clappers (through a half-sister of my great-grandmother Lana Mapes). These are families who lived south of Johnstown, Nebraska, as my own family did at one time. I knew we shared bloodlines with the Clappers and Kackmeisters from listening to my grandma talk about them when I was a kid. Now, I understand the details.
I knew that my grandmother Violet Eaton taught the Lavaca School (in northwestern Cherry County, Nebraska) at one time and that my mother taught in the same school around twenty-five years later. But I had not known that my great-grandfather Marcus Eaton homesteaded in that community and lived there with his wife and four daughters for ten years or more. When Violet taught at Lavaca, she was back in the neighborhood where she grew up and probably in the very school she herself had attended. And when my mother taught there, the older folks in the community must have remembered her mother, her aunts, and her grandparents.
Finding family history facts
I've never known much about my family history farther back than my great-grandparents, but I'm learning what I can and trying to find documentation for every fact that I add. You have to be careful on Ancestry.com. It would be very easy to accept information from other member's family trees that is undocumented and even completely wrong.
So, as I "leaf out" my family tree in the older generations that I don't know at all, I'm testing every bit of information that I find. Do the names match? Do the children match? Do the birth dates and death dates match? Is there any documentation for the last name of the spouse, or is it just family tradition? Etc., etc.
Mapes Family Mysteries
Lately, I've been obsessed with the Mapes line, the family of my dad's paternal grandmother. Surprisingly, it may be possible to track those ancestors back into the 1700s and possibly even earlier than that. The line includes a William Mapes who fought in the War of 1812. His father (Smith Mapes) and grandfather (Samuel Mapes) fought in the Revolutionary War.
I have tried and tried to prove that they are not really my relatives. Part of my doubt stemmed from something I read about the Revolutionary War father and grandfather. It said that they had both signed the "Revolutionary Pledge" in Orange County, New York. That bothered me, because I had read on the census records that the next generation of the Mapes family (Ashibel) could not read or write. How could Ashibel's grandfather and great-grandfather have been Pledge-signers in the 1770s, when Ashibel was illiterate in the mid-1800s? And yet the names and dates and places all match as they should, and I have found layers of documentation.
Interpreting the documents
As I've been looking at my family tree, I've developed some new-to-me insights. For example, it is no great shame that various Mapes ancestors and others in my family tree were illiterate. When you look at the old census records, it's amazing how many people were illiterate. In fact, in some of the neighborhoods where my mid-1800s Mapes ancestors lived (Kansas, Illinois), census records show that very few people could read or write.
I suspect that when the Mapes father and grandfather signed the Revolutionary Pledge, someone wrote their names for them, and they "made their sign" or marked an X beside it. I think it's likely that a lot of people signed the Revolutionary Pledge that way. I doubt if literacy rates in the 1770s were any better than they were in the 1850s.
Illiteracy also explains how spelling variations in names occurred from one document to the next. For example, Ashbel Mapes is recorded in census records and other papers as Ashibel, Ashibald, Ashbel, and Ashabel. Ashbel couldn't write or read, so he didn't know how his name was supposed to be spelled. He told his name and someone else recorded it with spelling that was invented on the spot.
The Revolutionary Pledge
And what was the Revolutionary Pledge that Smith and Samuel Mapes signed? Well, I found a bit of information about the Pledge in some old histories of Orange County, New York. During the Revolutionary War, two lists were kept in Orange County. One list had the names of the Orange County residents who had signed the Revolutionary Pledge, indicating that they supported the Revolution and freedom from English rule. The other list had the names of the Orange County Loyalists who wanted New York to remain an English Colony. The people on the list of Loyalists complained that they were harassed by the Orange County militia.
Today, I found an old book that claims that the Samuel Mapes family came from Wales. It gives some names and dates back into the 1600s -- and so it goes. The twigs are always branching.
Enough already! This surely interests me far more than it does you. I just wanted to explain a bit of what has been keeping me away from my blogs, causing me to stay up late, and even popping up in my dreams. I've become obsessed, and I blame it all on Ancestry.com.

OC Housewives Tamra Barney's Home Listed For Short Sale
The recurring theme with Bravo's Real Housewives seems to be one of short sales, evictions, and foreclosures. The OC Register is reporting that Tamra Barney of The Real Housewives of Orange County listed her home for a short-sale back in July.
Tamra claims that this was a "business decision" after she and her husband lost $600,000 on the house.
However a reader the Register's comments section had a different view on the issue, posting the following –
When a home goes to a short sale their credit is SHOT, the Barney's will be lucky if anyone will even RENT to them! They're deadbeats who obviously don't pay their bills. A short sale is a last attempt before FORECLOSURE. I don't know who they're trying to fool with the custom home.
Banks don't loan money on a new home if they haven't paid for their old mortgage. The Barney's are HIGH RISK and lenders are very careful now, this is BS. Three lates on a mortgage and banks won't look at you for at least 2 years after the last late payment.
All very interesting. The show mentioned last season that Tamra's husband, Simon Barney, lost quit his job with a Mercedes car dealership.

The Henderson County ABC Board decided to disband Wednesday, a month after a consultant's report said demand for liquor sales in unincorporated areas of the county is too low right now to support a sixth package store.
The Henderson County ABC Board decided to disband Wednesday, a month after a consultant's report said demand for liquor sales in unincorporated areas of the county is too low right now to support a sixth package store.
The ABC Board voted unanimously to recommend to county commissioners that it dissolve. Commissioners appointed the five-member board in July 2012 after voters approved a spring referendum allowing liquor sales in unincorporated areas of the county.
But consultants from Martin-McGill found the addition of three new ABC stores in the past three years — in Pisgah Forest, Arden and on Upward Road — has saturated the area liquor market to the point where building another store would jeopardize some existing outlets.
Their report said projected population growth could justify placing a county-run liquor store in Etowah or the Mountain Home area within three to five years.
Chairman Beau Waddell acknowledged commissioners could decide to keep the ABC Board alive, but said there was really no reason to continue, since the board's only real function was to oversee a county-run ABC store. Board member George Erwin Jr. agreed.
"I said from day one that if it came down to (where) we weren't going to be building an ABC store — we weren't going to be moving forward — to me it's senseless to have an ABC commission," said Erwin, who made the motion to disband.
At the urging of consultant Dennie Martin, the ABC Board had flirted with the idea of meeting just often enough to meet the state's statutory requirements, perhaps once a year. But Erwin pointed out the board's staggered terms of one to three years in length made that basically fruitless.
After consulting with County Attorney Russ Burrell, Waddell said it was clear that "the county commission or a future county commission could at any time reappoint a board" without Henderson County losing its ability to open a new ABC store in the future.
Martin-McGill's report estimated the county ABC Board would need a minimum customer base of 8,000 to 12,000 people, with strong tourism traffic, to sustain a new package store in unincorporated areas.
The Brevard ABC Board's decision to open a second package store in Pisgah Forest this summer hurt the viability of a potential Etowah store, board members said.
"That takes care of a segment of the population that previously had been underserved," Waddell said. "The competition got there before we did."
Board members spent much of last winter meeting with three other area ABC boards — Fletcher's, Laurel Park's and Hendersonville's — to see if they were interested in merging for the sake of consolidating costs and maximizing sales. None favored consolidation.
"We took our time with this, we were methodical in what we've tried to do, we commissioned Martin-McGill to do a study," said Erwin. "To me, the foundation is set for whatever the county does in the future."
Board member Rick Livingston said the Martin-McGill study, though controversial, was worth its nearly $9,000 price tag.
"I know there was some discussion or even some opposition to us spending that money to do the study," he said. "But I think the findings of that study have proven that was a very wise investment and expenditure on our part. Had we not done that study and moved forward (on building a new store), I think there probably would've been a lot more money wasted, certainly, than what this study has cost Henderson County."

1 February 2008 Reading the comments on the Explorer I Spacecraft by Roy (W0SL) and Dan (N8FGV) has certainly stimulated lots of old memories. In late 1983 I attended a presentation by James Van Allen at a meeting of the National Academy of Sciences in DC convened to celebrate 25 years in space. At this point in time the development of the Space Transportation System (The Shuttle) was being seriously debated. Most (!!!) scientists of the era thought the program was a political boondoggle whose costs would seriously impede the progress of real space science. As Van Allen, a spokesperson for this group, put it (my paraphrase) -- These guys claim they're going to reduce my launch costs by a factor of 100 by taking a scientific instrument with a one cubic foot volume, putting it in a bus and adding all the life support systems necessary for five people. These past few weeks we've seen spectacular photos of Mercury taken by the Messenger Spacecraft on its first flyby of the planet. How many people realize that the Messenger mission is the follow on to NASA's Mariner 10 spacecraft which mapped about 45 percent of the Mercury's surface during three flybys in 1974 and 1975. Because (?) of the Shuttle Program it took us more than three decades to return. de K2ubc (Martin Davidoff) -----Original Message----- From: firstname.lastname@example.com [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] On Behalf Of Roy Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 12:33 PM To: AMSAT BBS Subject: [amsat-bb] Explorer I If I'm not mistaken this is the 50th anniversary of the launch of Explorer I, the USA's first satellite put in orbit.

U.S. Medical Management, a Troy-based home care company, sold a majority interest in the company today to St. Louis-based Centene Corp. for about $200 million, officials said.
Under the deal, Centene (NYSE:CNC) will acquire a 68 percent interest in U.S. Medical Management, which was founded by CEO Mark Mitchell in 1993. Expected to close in early 2014, the purchase is expected to be funded with one-third cash and two-thirds Centene stock.
"We share Centene's core belief that integrated care models lead to improved quality, enhanced medical outcomes and cost-efficient care," Mitchell said in a statement. "We are confident that we will drive meaningful results and enhance care delivery for Centene's growing high-acuity population."
Centene owns Medicaid managed care HMOs and other health plans in 19 states. It also contracts with other organizations to provide specialty services that include behavioral health, care management, correctional systems health care, managed vision, pharmacy benefits and telehealth services.
USMM has been growing the past year to accommodate business expected through the Affordable Care Act. Earlier this year, it began hiring 300 workers to support its new 25,000-square-foot patient care call center.
USMM is a medical services organization that operates 39 offices in 11 states, including Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Texas and Kentucky.
Over the last three years, USMM has grown from a company with $146 million in net patient service revenue in 2010 to more than $162 million revenue in 2012, company officials said earlier this year.
USMM, which employs 1,954 nationally, including 865 in Michigan and 350 in Troy, is projecting $195 million in revenue this year.
Centene said it projects to add $220 million to $240 million in revenue during 2014.
