LSI Fundraising Talk – Nigel Hughes
2016 AGM to be held in Bridport Town Hall, 6pm Monday 10 October
This year's Bridport Area Development Trust AGM will be held in the Town Hall, Bridport on Monday 10 October 2016 at 18.00 for 18.30.
Light refreshments will be provided before the Meeting which will include a presentation of the latest restoration plan for the Literary and Scientific Institute building at 51 East Street to be completed in Autumn 2017.
LSI fundraising talk – Navigating the Royals
LSI work begins
After more than 6 years of planning, Bridport Area Development Trust is about to start work on the restoration of the Literary and Scientific Institute building in East Street. The Grade 2* listed building in East Street has been empty since 1997 and is currently on the national At Risk register.
A £2m building contract has been awarded to RG Spiller of Chard after a formal tendering process and the Trust is scheduled to grant possession of the site to the contractor on the 22nd August. It is estimated that the restoration work will span a year with the LSI building complete and ready for business in the Autumn of 2017.
Mike Carter, Chair of the LSI working group said "Access to the building to carry out the refurbishment is very limited due to the restricted nature of the site. We have reached an agreement with Highways and the Town Council to close the pavement outside the building and a portion of the local car parking on the South side of the road to allow for a contractor's compound outside the building and to ensure that two-way traffic is maintained in East Street. Pedestrian access will remain open to all premises along the street."
The appointment of the contractor signals the Trust's success in securing the final funding for the capital phase of restoration work which has been achieved with the help and support of HLF and Historic England who together have underpinned the valued contributions of other Trust organisations and stakeholders.
Whilst the construction work takes place, the Trust will move forward to assemble an operational management committee to run the building. When reopened the building will include training, meeting and flexible workspace to meet the needs of new and existing small businesses in the area and the local community. A café will cater for users of the building and be open to the public.
Alongside the building work a programme of activities will explore the history of the building. Activities Coordinator Crystal Johnson said, "It is incredibly exciting that, at last, this really important building is being saved. Its purpose has always been to support the growth and prosperity of the town and provide amenity for its residents. Its new use will reflect its original aims and safeguard it for the people of Bridport in the future."
"We have developed a programme of events and activities that we hope will help us understand more about the building and celebrate its heritage significance. We have just appointed an Oral History coordinator to record local memories about the building and would love to hear from anyone who would be willing to share their stories – it might be a small snippet of information or a more detailed recount of something that happened at the building."
If you have a story to share, would like to get involved or simply join our mailing list for progress updates, please contact Crystal Johnson: email@example.com

Girt Big Barn Dance raises girt big money
The Bridport Area Development Trust issued the following press release today:
A barn dance organised by Creeds Design and Print has raised £1,700 to support the restoration of Bridport Literary and Scientific Institute.
Held at The Tithe Barn by kind permission of Symondsbury Estate, the event was a sell out with over 200 people attending. Dancers enjoyed a light supper with bread and cheese supplied by Leakers Bakery and Ford Farm, and some mouth-watering tray bakes from Jessica's Farmhouse Cakes, before dancing the night away to local group 'Up and Running'.
Harry of Creeds Design and Print said, "the evening was fantastic and everyone attending had a great time. We are thrilled that it was such a success and that we were able to raise such a large amount to support the restoration of this important local community building."
Crystal Johnson, Activities Coordinator for the LSI project said, "we are enormously grateful to Creeds for organising this event which will makes a big contribution towards our current fundraising target. It is this kind of support that will really help in our last push to raise all the funds necessary to bring the LSI back into use and save it as a community building for the future".
The majority of the £2.6m needed to restore the LSI has already been secured, with major grants received from the Heritage Lottery Fund, Historic England and various other bodies. The project has about £125k left to raise. It was recently awarded £10k from the Wolfson Foundation and further fundraising will continue throughout 2016. It is anticipated that work will begin on site after Easter this year, with a view to reopening the building in early Summer 2017.
If you would like to be kept informed about the project and future developments please contact Crystal Johnson to join the mailing list: firstname.lastname@example.com

VTL Tiny Triode monoblock power amplifier
It was at this nadir that the young braves experienced spiritual enlightenment: hallucinations in which a Great Chief rode down from the sky on a brilliant white Appaloosa stallion with flared nostrils and burning red eyes. This Great Chief produced a painted arrow from his headdress, with scenes of the birth of man, the struggle for survival, and the horrors of the Apocalypse intricately carved along the wooden shaft. The arrowhead was a flint piece, razor-sharp and glinting in the bright yellow sun, and this he plunged deep into the boy's heart until it was shoved clear through his chest and emerged out of his back just beneath the shoulder blade. The young brave cried out, but no blood rushed forth; rather, he saw visions of the Great Plains, of the Comanche Nation leading a union of all tribes against the tyranny of Larry Storch and Forrest Tucker, of himself in full war-paint, his gangly limbs and clumsiness replaced with rippling red muscle and oneness of spirit. As the storm clouds burst open and green lightning danced across the valley, the young brave pulled the arrow from his chest in one long, triumphant gesture and held it aloft for the Great Chief to receive, but when he turned to offer it, the Great Chief had vanished into the blue night sky, leaving only the frenzied hoofprints of the stallion in the steaming mud. Thus, the brave returned to the tribe a man, and was welcomed back with much celebration and wild mushroom tea.
This is why, when John Atkinson suggested I listen to a handful of amps for my very first Stereophile review, I instinctively clutched my chest; the Great Chief had ridden right up to my doorstep, albeit in a rented Oldsmobile, and this was my trial. I knew what he was thinking: let's send this young brave a bunch of amps, all in the same general price range, and we'll just see if he doesn't start gobbling caterpillars and barking like a dog.
VTL Tiny Triode monoblocks: $1200/pair
When I saw the single small box from VTL marked "Tiny Triode," I was crestfallen; the other one must have been lost in shipping. To my astonishment, I opened it up to find both amps! You can read the dimensions, you can look at the picture, but you simply cannot get a feel for how tiny these babies are until you hold one in the palm of your hand; they're so cute you want to burp them. And it would be no more difficult than with the average infant, as the Tiny Triodes weigh only ten pounds each! In fact, they seem almost too tiny to be "real" tube amps, but that's getting ahead of the story.
The styling, while mostly similar to the larger VTLs, departs from the rest of the line with handsome red-anodized side panels that extend all the way to the top of the amps. Running between the side panels in front of the tubes is a small-diameter metal "nose-guard"; this presumably protects the tubes from being trampled by mice, sea monkeys, etc. VTL usually mounts their power and output transformers above the chassis in full view; here, they've opted for an "L-shaped" chassis, with a raised rear section concealing these parts. Only a single 47µF decoupling capacitor, two 6201/12AT7s, and four EL-84s stick out of the chassis. The actual B+ reservoir capacitors are two 350µF electrolytics hiden in the "tunnel" between the two transformers. Curiously, while VTL has fitted a very high-quality Tiffany-style RCA jack which is gold-plated, the 5-way binding post is not. A nondetachable three-prong power cord is fitted with each Triode; I found it necessary to use a cheater plug on one of the amps to break a ground loop; with both amps grounded they hummed like Druids.
Internal construction looks much improved from various VTL amps and preamps I've seen in the past, although there is still some solder flux present bridging high-impedance printed-circuit traces; the boards really should have been washed. Also, a number of the components are "tack-soldered" to the main PC board. Tack-soldering means that rather than providing a plated hole in the board to secure the component's leads through before soldering, they've simply been soldered on top of the traces. Strictly speaking, this is not good engineering practice, as solder should never be used to provide structural support; only electrical continuity.
I used the same listening system for all of the amplifiers reviewed here. The signal source was a reworked Philips CD-50, the preamp was my active-buffered passive preamp, and the speakers included my Spica Angelus speakers as well as the Thiel CS1.2s. Interconnects were Straight Wire Maestros, but David Manley also sent along some of the new and unique VTL cable. I say "unique" because the VTL was designed for use as both interconnect and speaker cable! (footnote 1) Speaker cables were 8' runs of Maestro or Cardas Hexlink Five for the stereo amps; for the Tiny Triode monoblocks, I used 1' runs of the VTL cable. All line-level components were plugged into the Audio Express NoiseTrapper Plus.
Like most amplifiers, the Tiny Triodes sounded overly bright and rough at turn-on; however, this congestion was gone after I let them cook overnight, and thereafter only a half-hour or so was needed for them to sound their best.
And how do they sound at their best?
Considering their size, amazing. Used Within Their Limits (more on this later), the VTL Tiny Triodes are some of the most musical amplifiers I've yet heard. I've always felt the true mark of a great system is when you notice how nice it sounds when you're not really paying any attention to it; I found myself constantly jerking my head up from the table as the Triodes played background music during a meal, struck by a sense of "What the—?! That sounded like a real brushed cymbal!" Or voice, or acoustic guitar, etc. There were nights when I literally couldn't finish reading a book's paragraph because my subconscious kept pricking me in the boo-tocks with a syringe labeled "REAL." In fact, I'd decided early on that it would be useful to write my reviews while listening to music with the specific component I was writing about; I even went and bought a "breakfast-in-bed" lap tray with legs so I could use my laptop while sitting on the couch in my listening room.
Footnote 1: The VTL cable consists of a twisted array of five Teflon-insulated conductors: three legs of 18ga OFC solid-core and two of 20ga stranded silver-plated OFC, all encased in a braided shield. For use as interconnect, VTL advises tying a solid-core and a twisted leg together for signal, tying another solid-core and stranded leg together for ground, and terminating the third solid-core leg plus overall shield to ground at the load end only. For speaker wire, two configurations are given: the first is to tie all five legs together along with the shield and use this for the positive side of the cable (another such leg is used for return, or negative); the second is to tie two solid-cores and a stranded together for positive, and the remaining solid-core and stranded legs plus shield together for negative. Of course, I used neither approach for my 1' lengths of monoblock cable, choosing instead to tie one solid-core and one stranded conductor together for each leg of the speaker cable, leaving the third solid-core leg and the shield unterminated at both ends.

MARCH 2016 - Street Outreach
In : Outreach Highlights
Praise the Lord, Glory to God.
2 Act Ministries was available and God used the ministry to get a mother, 12 year old daughter and a puppy off the streets until Tuesday when they get into permanent housing. Thank the Lord above they will not be on the streets.
Your prayers and support make a difference in the homeless people's lives, God is on the move providing, spreading His love, and spreading the Gospel.
100's of care packages put together for the homeless.
Glory to God, your prayers and support make a difference.
Every package has the Gospel, testimony, 🧦 socks, deodorant, lotion, chapstick, toothpaste and brush, comb, feminine products for the women, soap, shampoo, wet wipes, Jesus loves you bags, and q-tips.
What is the 2 Act Ministries emergency housing fund?
If they are female and pregnant or have kids and the shelters are full, we will assist them to make sure they are not sleeping on the streets. If it is a male, we will put them in the homeless hostel. Best of all, they all know it comes from Jesus and they hear the Gospel.
Because of this fund, a number of families and women did not end up on the streets, to learn more about giving to this fund, please contact us.
Praise report, Daryl is doing good in the Discipleship home, big thank you to Ray Reeder for the information on the home.
Also prayers for Manna, he is now off the streets and going into sober living Sunday.
God is so good and moving through the ministry.
Such kind words, nothing I did all GOD. This is from a former homeless person, the Lord used us to help him.
I had a few tears knowing that I was also a homeless person who found you and your ministry. I wasn't into drugs or anything but just homeless. You have done so much for me and i really appreciate your heart into all this because without you there would be no hope for me or anyone else that you have helped through the years. I believe that you also have a great personality and a great soul and so does your wife to do all what you do for anyone who needs help. Without you and your ministry there would be alot more homeless people on the streets. Thank you again for your kindness
The lives of the homeless are being changed and so many see the love of Jesus because of your prayers and support.
In July over 400 homeless folks received food, over 60 pairs of socks and care packages, several decisions for Jesus, ball caps, sunscreen, electrolytes, Bibles, Daily Breads and many calls taken for resources.
The homeless and less fortunate thank you.
From one of our new volunteers.
Last night...our first time serving at the Hope Chapel in downtown Las Vegas where the hungry were filled physically and spiritually.
I want to thank Ron Cornell (2 Act Ministries) for the opportunity to help and for their wonderful ministry all around! The main meal provided to these hungry folks was HOMEMADE with love by volunteers and we fed what looked like around 100 people! The desserts were from local stores and bakeries and there wasn't a single slice of anything left! I was literally covered in icing when I left lol.
If you ever wanted to support a grassroots ministry that gives 100% of the $ donated to outreach supplies and efforts, this is the one. Every penny will go to sharing the gospel, food, and the love of Christ to those who need it most.

If they haven't been "initialized", then they won't show up in Windows Explorer. Press Windows + R and put in diskmgmt.msc to check there.
It would also work better if your SATA setup runs in AHCI mode rather than IDE mode.
If you're trying to set up a RAID, then you might just have to refer to the motherboard operations manual.

Turner move shows Miami willing to turn the page
PITTSBURGH -- Cutting ties and moving forward are part of the business.
Miami's decision to designate right-hander Jacob Turner for assignment on Tuesday is the latest example.
The 23-year-old was a centerpiece of a trade made in July 2012 that sent Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante to the Tigers.
At the time, the Marlins were hopeful Turner would be a big part of their rotation for years to come. It didn't work out.
Miami's front office has shown it will be patient to a point. But if something makes sense, the club will react and turn the page, if necessary. Last week, the Marlins showed that by trading prospects Jake Marisnick and Colin Moran to the Astros for right-hander Jarred Cosart and infielder Enrique Hernandez.
"Bottom line is we're trying to win games here," president of baseball operations Michael Hill said. "We're trying to make decisions that will allow us to win games, not only now but into the future."
Marisnick, an athletic outfielder, was a big piece of the November 2012 trade with the Blue Jays. And Moran, the sixth overall pick in the 2013 First-Year Player Draft, was initially projected as the third baseman of the future.
Marisnick, however, was blocked by Christian Yelich, Marcell Ozuna and Giancarlo Stanton in the outfield. Moran wasn't projected to be part of the plans in 2015, either. The team hopes to sign third baseman Casey McGehee, who is arbitration-eligible next year, to an extension.
"Every circumstance is different," Hill said. "If you don't feel like you have a chance to win, then to be reckless with your inventory is just reckless. But if you have a plan and you're trying to execute a plan, we work through a myriad of scenarios with this ballclub and what we want to get accomplished."

Daily Links, April 30: Dissenters, discrimination claims, and drinking while you worship
A tense situation has erupted in the Diocese of Madison, Wisconsin between priests and parishioners in one parish. Now Madison Bishop Robert Morlino is warning the dissenters to call it off or face harsh penalties.
There's also been a lot of controversy in Catholic schools lately. Teachers in Ohio and in Indiana have recently been fired over their decision to use artificial means of conception to have children. Then a Pennsylvania Catholic high school told a student she wasn't welcome at the prom because she didn't have a date. Baltimore Sun columnist Susan Reimer wonders what is going on.
Lest we forget about the bishops' "religious liberty" campaign, Mathew Schmalz at the Washington Post considers what might happen if the fight goes all the way to the Supreme Court and what might be a better way to generate useful dialog about the issue.
John Allen at NCR is wondering whether Pope Benedict XVI is starting to look more like the Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of old based on some recent decisions to come out of Rome.
Meanwhile people are talking about who might be Benedict's successor. Some think it could be Canadian Cardinal Marc Oullet, but he doesn't see himself fitting in the role.
And here's something that would never work in the Catholic Church: A Tulsa, Oklahoma church is holding services at a local bar. Then again, their services might just be a variation on something the Catholic Church has already done, Theology on Tap.
Finally, a programming note: Most of our staff will be attending a conference over the next few days, so content on the site will be limited to our daily news posts. Regular content should resume on Thursday.

Sermon delivered on the Feast Day of the Annunciation, March 25, 2007.
Throughout the ecclesiastical year, four of the twelve Great Feast Days center on the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ. These include her:Nativity on September 8; Dormition on August 15; Entrance into the Temple on November 21; and Annunciation on March 25.
Today on the the Annunciation of the Theotokos, we will look more closely at the liturgical texts to learn more about this most special person.
Who is Mary? What makes her so special? Her name "Maria" or "Mariam" literally means exalted one She is ever-Virgin (Luke 1:27), a title that describes not only her physical state but describes a purity and chastity that extends to her whole person (thought, word, and deed). Note the words of the Archangel Gabriel: Mary is "full of grace" and "God is with you" — words spoken even before the Word of God was conceived within her (Luke 1:28). Elizabeth, her cousin and the wife of Zacharias and the mother of John the Baptist, called her "blessed among women" (Luke 1:42).
The hymns and readings of Vespers Service celebrated last night, tell us more about Mary. She is the "burning bush" not consumed by the fire of God's divinity (Exodus 3:1-8); "Jacob's ladder" (Genesis 28:12) that is the "bridge to heaven" (Stichera 1). She is the "gate of heaven" (Genesis 28:17) and the "divine jar of manna" (Stichera 1) and "bride unwedded" (Stichera 4).
In addition to these characteristics, let me highlight three more qualities of Mary.
First, Mary is wise. We read in scripture that when Gabriel first approached Mary that she was "troubled" by Gabriel's message and that she "considers" it (Luke 1:29). After he expands on God's message she asked a question, "How will this be?" (Luke 1:34). This demonstrates that Mary was discerning. We assume that she knew and understood everything at first but it appears that she did not. So, Mary was cautious but not overly-guarded. The Old Testament reading from Vespers implies that Mary is the personification of wisdom. It reads, "Wisdom ... has built her house" (Proverbs 9:1) for the "...fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 9:10).
Second, Mary is faithful and obedient. After the Archangel explained how Jesus will be divinely conceived within her womb, she replied, "Behold, the handmaiden of the Lord" (Luke 1:38). Handmaiden in the original Greek is doule (slave). She placed herself completely under the direction and authority of God. Mary then said, 'Let it be unto me according to your word' (Luke 1:38). We know her "yes" implies an utterly free response to God. She was not forced, coerced or manipulated. She could have said "no".
Third, Mary is Theotokos literally "God-bearer" or "Mother of God". Because Christ is the way, the truth and the life, she becomes the Mother of Life (4th Stichera). She becomes the '"Human tabernacle ... Lord takes on her flesh making it divine ... consecrated as the Temple of God" (4th Aposticha). She is the "House of God" (Genesis 28:17).
Knowing Mary better, what can learn from her that we can apply to our own life? Compare Mary to Eve. Eve literally means "life". Eve was the "mother of all the living". But Eve was not wise. She did not discern the serpent's deceitful and false message and disobeyed the command not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. She trusted and obeyed the devil and thereby rejected her divine calling.
Brothers and sisters in the Lord, we too must be wise. We cannot on the one hand, over-spiritualize every experience of our life as if God is sending us a message every second of the day. On the other hand, we must understand that God sends us angels and messengers, often the faithful and believing people who love and care for us, to guide and direct us in this life. Be wise and discerning.
When confronted with the call of Jesus Christ to accomplish His will in the world, we must be faithful and obedient. He will not force us. We must consent and accept God's call and divine purposes.
Like the Virgin Mary, our "yes" to God each day will be the new beginning of salvation for us and for many people around us. The Virgin Mary is not the only tabernacle or dwelling place of God. He wants to live in us too. Know the Virgin Mary. Imitate her purity and holiness. Know her Son and our God, Jesus Christ. Amen.

A light shade of a colour, like blue, across the whole background of a form relieves the eye from the harshness of a stark white background. And if the answer spaces people have to fill in are white, the tinted background both cues them in to where they write, and allows them to visually sense how much they have to fill in.
When designing forms make sure the response mechanism is appropriate to each question. Having gone to all the trouble of filling in your form, the least you can do is provide users with information about what happens next. Customer communication is key, and since you have made the form so easy to fill in and return, processing it could also be a breeze!

Book a cruise
La Grace offers to the guests two options – similarly as it was on ships in the history on their way to the West Indies, for example.
- The passengers have their two-berth cabin and are free of duty, like in a hotel. The price for a two-berth cabin (depending on a season) is EUR 1.080 – 1.200 a week, i.e. 600 a person. This price includes a possibility of an extra bed for a child in the cabin (for free).
- The other group are so called cadets. They sleep in two common cabins on the fore and they have to (like on other charter boats) participate on the daily tasks. They will have to have watches, navigate, pull the ropes, but also help in the kitchen.
It is necessary, like on other charter boats, to add costs of the travel to the boarding place, contribution for the food and other costs (diesel, water, gas). If you have no special requirements, the contribution does not go over EUR 120 a week.
You will find the list of the cruises under the Cruise Schedule, where you can also book them.
Of course, you can always buy vouchers which you can use for any future cruise. More information here.
In case of any question, or a special wish, you can address Romana Bezdekova - firstname.lastname@example.com, mobil: +420 725777425

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 a month ago and am using it till now. I failed to notice that all this time there was no sound at all while running Ubuntu, even while playing a game in Wine. The weird thing is that only the startup sound comes when I log in (Indian/African drum tone), then comes the utter silence.
I tested both Digital Output (S/PDIF) and the speakers in the sound settings but can hear nothing.
Any help?

Davidson gas murder plot was "elaborate and well-planned"
A HIDDEN network of pipes were used to funnel gas into the home where a father, mother, two children and a dog were found dead in Sydney's north this week.
The family patriarch Fernando Manrique is understood to have rigged up the elaborate system, with even neighbours confirming they recall him working on the roof with power tools.
They could have no idea of what he had planned.
Mr Manrique's wife Maria Claudia Lutz, 45, was found dead alongside daughter Elissa, 11.
Their son Martin, 10, was found in another room.
Mr Manrique was found on his own elsewhere in the house, as was the family German Shepherd.
News Corp reports detectives are now investigating the source of the poison found in gas canisters.
Police were also now pulling apart the piping that fed the family the ultimately fatal dose of toxins.
Its understood Mr Manrique was working on the roof of the house in the days before the deaths occurred.
Police believe he has installing the system to distribute the poison, which included several devices throughout the house.
It was "extensive, elaborate and well-planned", according to police sources who spoke to News Corp.
Mr Manrique worked as an executive for a technology company, while his wife was a dedicated and devoted mother to their kids, who each lived with autism.
The Daily Telegraph reports family members in their home city of Bogota in Comobia said the parents were on the verge of divorce.

Reintegrating the Homeless Family
Project (Thesis)

This thesis explores the question: how can architecture reintegrate the homeless family back into the community? Shelters are stigmatized because they are often associated with crime, filth, and danger. The shelter should create an environment mutually beneficial to the homeless and the surrounding community; my project seeks to reintegrate the shelter into the city to facilitate healthier and stable lifestyles. This project delves into psychology and sociology; homelessness is a social issue affecting all groups of people. The shelter must instill a sense of stability and safety for families, as it is the first step towards rebuilding a steady life. Redesigning the shelter to serve the entire community allows new socialization patterns to be introduced that will aim to better support homeless families to expedite their transitional process out of homelessness.

Summit County's top 10 news stories of 2012
summit daily news
The first months of 2012 were marked by more sunshine and less snow than anyone in Summit County hoped to see.
After a disappointing December generated only 4 inches of snow, ski resorts and snowsports enthusiasts alike pinned their hopes on the normally plentiful powder of March. But the third month of 2012 came in like a lamb and went out the same way, with unseasonably warm temperatures, with more snow melting than falling.
The meager snowpack in Summit County's Upper Colorado River Basin dropped 26 percent in March, setting the stage for a summer marked by drought and wildfires.
A dead body is not something a hiker is likely to find when navigating the backcountry trails around Breckenridge.
But that was exactly what volunteers discovered while picking up trash near the Burro Trail Trailhead during town clean-up day in May.
Karl Kohler, a local forest-dweller, was found beaten to death near a campsite on Peak 9. Within weeks, authorities closed in on a suspect, Gregory Scott Gavin, who also lived full-time in the forest.
Gavin later confessed to killing Kohler with a baseball bat and pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
After two weeks of testimony, it took a jury only a few hours to come back with a guilty verdict, convicting former Silverthorne photographer Dale Bruner of his wife's brutal murder in 2010.
Bruner was convicted of second-degree murder and first-degree assault in July after the defense failed to convince jurors the man his wife was seeing before she died might have been her killer.
Bruner was sentenced to 112 years in prison, but maintains his innocence.
Stephanie Roller Bruner, a mom and dance instructor, was found strangled and bludgeoned in the Blue River near her home just after Thanksgiving 2010.
After years of controversy and environmental analysis, the U.S. Forest Service officially approved a Breckenridge Ski Resort application to expand the ski area to Peak 6.
It will add 550 acres and two new lifts to the resort. Construction is set to begin this summer. Resort representatives say the expansion is needed to ease overcrowding.
As wildfires tore across Colorado fueled by one of the worst droughts in a decade, Summit County managed to escape a frightening fire season with only a few close calls.
Minor wildfires ignited near Montezuma, at the Summit County Shooting Range, on Peak 7 in Breckenridge and over the ridge in Eagle County, but all were contained fairly quickly and none wreaked the havoc caused by other wildfires across the state.
Still, the summer was marked by safety precautions. Fireworks were cancelled, water restrictions implemented and campfires banned across the county.
Silverthorne voters rejected a special election question 2-1 in August, refusing to limit the town's power to use eminent domain and effectively ending an ongoing community debate over the construction of the Blue River Trail.
Silverthorne homeowners in opposition to a portion of the trail being expanded over an easement on their properties called for the vote through a citizen's initiative.
A Whole Foods Market will soon set up shop in Summit County, after the Frisco Town Council approved development for a town-owned parcel near the Safeway off Interstate 70.
The company was given a 50-year lease earlier this year for the 9.4-acre property amid much community excitement and support.
For years neighborhood residents had warned officials the crosswalk at Rasor Drive and Highway 6 near Keystone Resort was a dangerous place for pedestrians.
In March, a drunk driver proved them right.
Wildernest resident Wesley Wilson struck and killed 33-year-old Mircea Basaram, a tourist from Romania as he was crossing the road.
In the wake of the accident, neighbors teamed up with Colorado Department of Transportation and Summit County officials to design and implement $85,000 worth of safety improvements targeted at making the crosswalk more visible to drivers.
After 26 years in operation, the Summit Prevention Alliance, an organization dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles in the community, announced it was closing in April, amid financial problems.
The board of directors claimed it would take an undetermined period to reprioritize and determine a new direction for the organization, while the nonprofit's ongoing commitments and projects were handed off to other organizations.
For the first time in 2013, Breckenridge will host a stage start and a finish for the third annual Pro Cycle Challenge road bike race, organizers announced in December.
Breckenridge hosted a stage finish in the first year of the race and a start this year. Both events drew tens of thousands of spectators to the county as the town organized bike-related festivities to mark the occasion.

More than half of all Brits don't even know their neighbours' full names, a survey has found.
Residents across the UK are living next door to 'thingy' and 'whatshisname', after research revealed 57% don't know their neighbours' name.
A poll of 2,000 British householders found that almost a third of those quizzed couldn't recall the first name of the person living just yards away.
Meanwhile just over half (51%) were in the dark when it came to surnames.
And that's despite the average Brit living next door to their neighbour for over seven years.
The survey by DistinctiveChesterfields.com, also found that more than a quarter of people (27%) wouldn't even bother to say 'hello' to their neighbours if they saw them leaving the house.
And it seems 'love thy neighbour' is wishful thinking when it comes to British streets, as one in five people have had an argument with someone they live next to.
Nuisance noises ranked top of the list for making residents see red (68%) followed by one in five who fume over boundaries, 13% who battle about behaviour and 12% who take their neighbours to task over gardening.
A staggering 10% of Brits went as far as to claim they hated their neighbours, with 6% resorting to legal action against someone they live next to and 2% who claimed they've been assaulted.
And one in ten respondents said they got so riled by neighbourly rows that they had to move home.
According to the stats, those in Worcester have the most torrid time with neighbours, with 19% of respondents relocating.
Residents in York have been branded desired dwellers as only 4% have moved home after a war with next door.
Research shows that most traditional values have been abandoned as three quarters of Brits wouldn't even ask a neighbour to watch their house while they went on holiday.
Less than one if five (18%) gave their neighbours spare keys in case of an emergency and just 27% offering to put someone's bins out.
On a more positive note, a third of residents say they have actually kept in touch with a former neighbour after they've moved home.
Steve Laidlaw from Distinctivechesterfields.com said: "It's a shame we no longer seem to uphold the traditional values of living on a street where you know most of your neighbours.
"Gone are the days of nipping round for some sugar but it would be great to see more people getting along and looking out for each other."

Robert Louis Stevenson once described wine as "poetry in a bottle." But the real music is made during crush, when the grape skins are broken to prepare them for wine production. Early autumn sees a steady flow of visitors to the vineyard-laced valleys of Napa and Sonoma. The tasting rooms are abuzz with the talk of tannins as wine lovers rush to find pairings for dishes such as braised short ribs and pumpkin soup.
Yet, not everyone loves a parade. If you're looking for a more intimate experience, here are three off-the-grid wine regions that will help you avoid the rush to the crush.
Santa Cruz: Fourteen wineries make up a consortium called Surf City Vintners near Swift Street and Ingalls in Santa Cruz. The area has a funky warehouse feel, which just lends to the fun of going door-to-door to taste wine. The most recognized label is Bonny Doon Vineyard, a soulful operation that was nearly lost when disease decimated its vineyards in the mid-1990s. Today, Bonny Doon wines are a Santa Cruz favorite, coupled with a popular on-site café called Le Cigare Volant. Each table has its own private nook, where locally-grown foods are paired with the winery's organic offerings.
Nearby, Marin Artukovich is having more fun than a vintner should have. The coffee-grower-turned-winemaker owns MJA Vineyards, where soft Hawaiian music plays as he pours tastings of several of his "girls" — wines given whimsical names like "Nosy" and "Moody." His pairings are just as eclectic and include chocolate-covered coffee beans and macadamia nuts. Visitors can enjoy wines and live music on the lanai and sign up for his monthly Wine Cellar Cinema events. Visit www.surfcityvintners.com for more information.
Western Yolo County: Known since the 19th century for its apricots, the land along Interstate 505 is a romantic expanse of rolling hills and fertile valleys hugging the Vaca Mountains. Vineyards dot the landscape, and the warm days and temperate nights are tailor-made for Rhone varietals and Spanish Tempranillo. The culinary hotspot of Western Yolo County is Winters, a historic town of 7,000 that's home to the original Buckhorn Steakhouse and its celebrated sister restaurant Putah Creek Café. Next door, the Turkovich Family Wines tasting room features son Daniel's artisan cheeses — made on site under the name Winters Cheese Co. Two other tasting rooms in town are RootStock and Berryessa Gap Vineyards. The wine region hosts its annual Roots to Wine Passport weekend with vineyard tours, barrel tastings, live music and more Oct. 13-14. See http://rootstowine.com for further details.
Calaveras County: Not since the days of the Gold Rush has something so precious come out of the ground. Wine is the hot commodity in Calaveras County, where farmers work together to promote the pioneering spirit of this emerging wine region. The epicenter is Murphys, a town that looks more like the Wild West than a wine destination. Murphys hosts its annual Calaveras Grape Stomp on Oct. 6 — a good time to taste at some two dozen wineries along Main Street. Nearby, scenic State Route 4 takes you to several family-owned wineries where the vintners are often on property. From Twisted Oak Winery's rubber chicken collection to Chatom Vineyards' creative pairings with peanut butter cups — there's no wine snobbery here. View www.calaveraswines.org for more details.

Absolute return - thinking differently about bond funds
We take a look at absolute return bond funds, and explore how a strategic approach could better protect capital without sacrificing growth.
Bonds are essential but carry risks
Bonds are still an essential part of building a diversified portfolio.
As investors come to rely on their investments to meet liabilities, bonds often play an increasingly significant role in protecting capital and generating a predictable income stream. This traditional approach to portfolio construction remains true today.
However, while bonds still have a crucial part to play, today's macroeconomic environment means that using only traditional bond funds may expose investors to more risk than they are aware of.
Throughout the summer of 2015, headlines in financial media were focused on the Greek debt crisis and steep falls in the Chinese equity market.
Rising rates are bad for bonds, and this makes life particularly tough for conventional bond funds.
These stories did cause volatility to rise in bond markets, but from a structural point of view, neither is currently expected to pose a serious threat to market stability.
For bond investors, the most prominent threat is posed by an otherwise positive development: the global economic recovery.
In particular, the economic recovery in the US is likely to drive a profound change in the accommodative monetary policy environment that has supported bond markets since 2008.
The story so far...
In response to the global financial crisis, the Federal Reserve (Fed) – central bank to the world's largest economy:
- Dropped its headline interest rate to almost zero.
- The Fed also eased monetary policy in a way never seen before; introducing a series of massive quantitative easing (QE) packages that injected a total of $4.5 trillion into the US bond market.
Treasury yields during that time fell to all-time lows, and as a number of major central banks enacted similar asset purchase programmes, many other bond markets followed suit.
Compared to when these measures were introduced, the US economy now looks very different:
- The pace of QE was reduced during 2014, with no additional purchases made from October of that year.
- Since May 2015 the Fed has made it clear that the headline interest rate should be expected to rise during 2015.
Given that low rates and rising liquidity were so supportive of bond markets to the start of 2015, it stands to reason that the opposite will be true. Rising rates are bad for bonds, and this makes life particularly tough for conventional bond funds.
Thinking differently about bond exposure
Conventional bond funds will often be tied to a benchmark. The manager of a conventional fund can adjust the amount of participation the fund has in market moves; known as 'beta'.
Unfortunately, while this type of bond fund might successfully perform better than its benchmark, it will always move in the same direction. If the market falls, investors in the fund will – to a greater or lesser extent – lose out.
For an absolute return bond fund this is not the case. The fund may use a broad index in order to monitor portfolio volatility or performance, but equally it may use none at all.
In either case, the aim is to generate an absolute return by investing in the manager's best ideas, irrespective of an underlying benchmark.
The wider array of investment strategies available allows an absolute return manager to allocate - or mitigate - risk in a far more tailored way.
Bond volatility will become more pronounced and periods of market volatility more frequent.
Most importantly, an absolute return bond fund can also alter 'duration' positioning to a greater extent than a conventional bond fund.
Duration is the way bond fund managers quantify their portfolio exposure to interest rates.
The duration level - measured in years - helps determine how much of the fund's value is exposed to a rise or fall in interest rates. The more duration you hold when rates are rising, the more money you lose.
Without a benchmark, an absolute return bond fund has the ability not just to hold less duration than an index - as with conventional funds - but can be 'short' duration in specific areas.
This is where investors not only insulate themselves from a rate hike, but can profit from it. An absolute return bond manager can sell exposure to interest rates, to profit from a fall in bond prices when rates are increased.
Volatility isn't going away
Bond markets throughout 2014 and into the start of 2015 outperformed even the most optimistic of expectations.
With very low interest rates and high levels of liquidity still being introduced by some major central banks, bond values crept up consistently.
Corporate bond yield spreads – the amount of return offered by corporate bonds over government bonds – also narrowed as investors hunted for returns.
Bond issuers have continued to bring a high level of new bonds to the market, seeking to secure low rates before rates are hiked.
Meanwhile, investors have begun to reduce duration levels for the same reason. As we have discussed, this trend of falling yields and tightening corporate spreads increasingly looks to have run its course.
From here, we anticipate that volatility will become more pronounced and periods of market volatility more frequent.
Absolute flexibility
The bond market has expanded enormously since the financial crisis, whilst changes in regulation have reduced its liquidity.
Add to that the central bank involvement in markets, and it is easy to see that there are likely to be periodic pinch points; phases of stress caused by liquidity problems in the secondary market.
Concurrently, the trend level of global productivity and economic growth is set to slow, because of the 'top-heavy' nature of its demographic distribution.
More people, all living longer, need to be supported in retirement while not contributing to economic growth. This means that rates will rise, but probably by not as much as in previous rate hike cycles.
Absolute return funds could position themselves to capitalise on these periods of volatility.
During rising bond markets, an absolute return bond fund could generate positive returns, whilst the complete flexibility to adjust market and duration exposure means these strategies could protect investor capital when markets are falling

Christmas Morning Caramelized Baked French Toast
Nothing says Christmas morning like Caramelized Baked French Toast. It is a sweet sugar fest for the senses. I also love that you can prep it the day before, pop it in the oven Christmas morning and enjoy a warm tasty breakfast together (unlike crepes where I'm standing over the griddle while the kids are crying "more" before I've even tasted one).
Click HERE for the PRINTABLE RECIPE
1 Loaf of French Bread
6 Eggs
1 1/2 cups Milk
1 1/2 cups Half and Half
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
3/4 cup Butter
1 1/3 cups Brown Sugar
3 tbls light Corn Syrup
Start by cutting the french bread into 6 long strips. Then with kitchen shears, snip off chunks of bread until the entire loaf is in a greased casserole dish. Set aside (since I live in a dry climate, I leave it uncovered to allow the bread to dry out, in a humid climate, you might cover with plastic).
In a large mixing bowl crack 6 whole eggs. Add 1 1/2 cups of half and half. Top with 1 tsp of ground cinnamon.
Pour in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Whisk together.
Pour the mixture over the bread. Stir the bread being sure to cover each piece completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night.
In the morning, remove the dish from the fridge and preheat the oven (I preset the oven the night before so it is pre heated when we wake up). In a sauce pan add 1 1/2 cubes of butter, 1 1/3 cups of brown sugar and 3 tablespoons of corn syrup (again, I have this out on the stove the night before so it is ready to go). Melt together until it is bubbling. Pour the syrup mixture over the mushy bread mixture.
Pop it in a 350 degree oven uncovered for 30 minutes. It will start to bubble and caramelize. The top pieces will get crispy while the inside will be moist and gooey.
Serve up with a large spoon. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and whip cream and enjoy together.

|The first Microlight open face helmet with a Rollbar: great visibility and safety chin protection
Many pilots and dealers asked ICARO to design a full-face Microlight helmet with built-in headsets.
ICARO chose another solution: the ROLLBAR
The advantages are obvious: better visibility, better noise reduction with the large earphones, and the possibility of removing the earphones. An elastic ear protector is also available as an optional accessory.
It gives the same feel as a full-face helmet and protects against the cold.

We love GroupMe. We use it almost daily. It's our favourite way of avoiding SMS, coordinating the team, braving CES, and exchanging childish jokes. Today, a new version drops, and it's bigger and prettier than ever.
The emphasis in GroupMe 4.0 is clearly to look more like Facebook and Pinterest, and everything else that's Internet Cool. So there's a definite graphical overhaul. That's fine. But there are some nice new features to use with your clique: you can rejoin any group you've previously left, share group chats with a permanent URL, and tap anyone's avatar to jump straight into privat messaging.
But it really does look pretty.
Photos and avatars are huge, chat streams are simplified and clean, and there's a newsfeed to catch up on group messages you've missed.
It's also available on iPad, too, meaning that between iMessage and this, you've got one very nice mobile messaging command center in your bag at all times.
