Sheriff: Meth, Cash and Gun seized during drug bust
$18,000 in crystal meth recovered, ten arrested
A Benton County drug task force seized about $18,000 worth of crystal meth and about $11,000 in cash in a raid in a part of rural Rogers Feb. 1. Deputies arrested ten people on felony drug charges and parole violation.
Benton County Sheriff Kelley Cradduck told 40/29 News the department acted on credible information from the narcotics unit. The team entered the home with the parole division and found 165 grams - roughly a half pound of crystal meth, a loaded 9mm handgun and other drug paraphernalia.
"Many times, these people are surprised by the police even showing up or having a presence or even knowing about the activity," Cradduck said.
Cradduck told reporters Wednesday deputies also recovered surveillance gear, including a large flat screen TV and cameras.
"I don't think they saw us coming. But they don't call it dope for nothing."
The investigation is ongoing and Cradduck says the department could make more arrests.

How to get a free 1 Year Costco Membership UPDATED for 2018
If you know anything about the COSTCO MEMBERSHIP Program then you know they operate a bit like SAMS Club. Costco has a lot of stuff you can buy in bulk and you have to be a Costco member before you can. If you are interested in getting a FREE SAMS club membership you can do so by reading that article here.
So the deal is simple to get a Costco membership they have fees for their 1 year membership that range between 50 and 150 bucks. This is an estimate this article will be here for quite some time and they go up in price every year. You give them some basic information, pick the service level of Costco Membership you want, pay them, and get your photo taken. A few minutes later you are handed a card with your pic on it and presto, you have a Costco Membership. In order to get your Free 1 Year Costco Membership you absolutely have to pay for the first year. There is no way to get around that part of it.
There are 3 types of Costco Memberships. You can get any of the three Costco memberships free if you follow this guide.
At Costco you get a second card as part of the Costco Membership Program. Anyone can have it, it's not a "spouse" card per sae. So if you are smart you can take the first fee and split it with a friend or relative, just make sure they come with you so you can both get your cards at the same time. Now use your 1 Year Costco membership like you normally do for the next 50 weeks. When you reach the 50 week mark this is where it gets a little interesting.
Free 1 Year Costco Membership in 2018
You go over to the customer service counter and give them your 1 year membership card (the primary member has to do this, so the person that got your second card can't do this, but they can come along to get the second card again).
Slide your 1 year Costco membership card over to the clerk and ask for a refund. They will ask you why and you tell them I don't like the fact that it expires. They will give you the money, likely apologize and that will be that.
Turning your card in to get your Free 1 Year Costco Membership in 2018
Now with Costco things are a little different than the SAMS club method. To get a FREE Costco Membership without getting hassled (even though their return policy is the same, and the recording above from their customer service line says they will let you do it) they may give you a hassle. Each Costco location runs their own warehouse. They have to abide by the corporate policy but it seems like Costco corporate is a little lenient and allows them to interpret their Costco Membership return policy the way they think is appropriate. This won't effect your how you get your Free 1 year Costco Membership but it could effect your day or how upset you have to get in order to achieve your goal. (i.e. angry customer routine would get you what you want but why go there?).
So randomly you could go into a Costco and get your full refund for your Costco Membership, slide the money back across the table and get another membership for free. That said, the guy/gal might tell you no. You would have to get the manager, wait, complain, etc… In my opinion it just isn't worth the hassle to get the free Costco membership. So my method to make my life easier when I'm getting my free 1 year costco membership is to simply get the refund when I am leaving. Then I go back to Costco and get my free 1 year membership when I make my next trip to Costco. They do lie though. They do not "Happily" issue you a full refund for your membership at anytime for any reason. I'm sorry, but I have never had that happy experience. They always look like you slapped them in the face when you ask for a refund for your Costco Membership. With SAMS Club most of the time they are happy and carefree.
The Costco Guarantee that gets you the Free 1 Year Costco Membership in 2018
Remember, look over at the sign about the Costco Membership guarantee. It says "We will happily issue a full refund for your membership at anytime for any reason." There is no fine print. This is their rule, and a large reason to purchase a membership. It is put there for 2 reasons. 1) To assure you that you will not be sucked into a Costco membership that has no value without the ability to get your money back. 2) To make sure the thrifty customers who wouldn't normally purchase a membership have an outlet to address their issue with paying money for the privilege of shopping. Now take the money you just saved and go get a Free SAMS club membership it works slightly differently, but SAMS club is definitely worth going to if you have one near you.
If you are interested in reading Costco's membership return policy yourself, simply click this link and scroll down to the bottom of the page where it highlights information about their general return policy which applies to Costco Memberships. This link demonstrates that Costco allows you to return the Costco Membership at anytime for any reason which allows this method to work. Enjoy your Free 1 Year Costco Membership it definitely still works here in 2018, I just renewed it myself in June. For those of you who would "poo poo" and say it is a scam or they don't allow you to do this, please click the play button above the article title. It is a recorded call from start to finish with me calling Costco and asking them if I could do this. If you skip to 5:40 seconds you will hear the actual call, I didn't edit the file to chop out the wait so that the naysayers wouldn't complain about the call being edited or doctored.
If you like this article please feel free to share it with your friends. By clicking one of the social media buttons below. If you think this is shady… I bet your friends don't think it is. Share it and see. Either way I encourage an open debate about it here and I answer these comments regularly. (No name calling tho)

We all know that kids are not little adults, and this is especially true when it comes to eating. Most children have very particular eating habits with specific likes and dislikes that can make mealtime a challenge for any parent. Kids' growing bodies require special amounts of all nutrients - particularly protein and calcium - and it's important for kids to develop nutritious eating habits early in life.
One way parents can boost their children's nutrition is through careful food selection. A child's early experiences with food help structure lifelong eating habits, which means that from the start parents should aim to make mealtime healthy and fun. Yogurt suits the needs of parents and children by helping to provide the calcium, protein, vitamins and minerals necessary for healthy growth and development while delivering great taste and variety. Plus, yogurt is easy to include in meals and snacks because it's so versatile and convenient.

SKF helps power plant cut scheduled outage time by 20 hours
The challenge
During a previous LP turbine coupling procedure, a stuck bolt led to extended outage time and coupling hole damage. The hole required repairs, while the extra outage time reduced power generation. Looking to avoid similar delays and costs for the overhaul, the plant looked to SKF.
The SKF solutionSKF engineers suggested SKF Supergrip bolts. SKF performed a turnkey service on the turbine unit that included a precision alignment of the turbine train, precision line boring of all coupling holes, and the installation of an alignment bolt along with all SKF Supergrip bolts.
The resultsSKF helped reduce the project's outage schedule by 20 hours (critical path time), saving the plant 562,900 Euros in the process. Along with a significant reduction in the time needed to dismount and mount the coupling bolts, the plant was able to improve worker safety and get the unit back on line in record time.
Return On Investment (ROI)
- Outage schedule time savings
- 20 hours/coupling dismounting/mounting
- Wholesale power revenue costs
- 0,0433 Euro/Kwh
- Power generating unit capacity
- Total savings
- 650 000 x 20 x 0,0433 =
- €562 900
Note: All numbers are rounded off and based on customer estimates. Your particular cost savings may vary.

Message From
the "Fabulous" Sara Green
"Connection: a relationship in which a person, thing, or idea is linked or associated with something else."
That seems to be a very ordinary, common word, but I believe it's a big one! HOW we connect with our club members is important and impacts our club on several levels; mainly by the sharing of information and the club's exposure. Getting out to the community how great NWCC is!
Our connections through technology have been fast growing over the years. Our club's memberships, whether a new member or renewals, are now done totally online, and through our Constant Contact e--mail it allows us the ability to reach all club members with important announcements and the notification of monthly club meetings.
Our fastest--growing way we connect now is through Social Media; i.e., Facebook. Our Board of Directors, NWCC Race Team, and club members are now connecting more and more through Social Media. So what impact does the connection with Social Media have on the club?
Think about it… Through our Northwest Cycling Club Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/NorthwestCyclingClub we are able to instantly share information and reach thousands of people on an ongoing basis in our efforts to promote NWCC's signature rides: The Bluebonnet Express, The Texas Ultra Spirit, The Texas State Time Trial Championship, The Katy Flatland Century, and The Chappell Hill Road Race. How might the connection with Social Media impact you?
Our Northwest Cycling Club Activities Group page, https://www.facebook.com/groups/NorthwestActivities, has 1400 members. The purpose of this page is to share ongoing activities and events related to NWCC. This has allowed members to reach out to one another in planning social weekday rides with one another; hence the loosely--termed "Wednesday Wheelers" social ride was born; the sharing of cycling tips, upcoming local rides, suggestions and support for fellow members regarding all things cycling and more!
So give Social Media a chance and connect with NWCC through Facebook.
Although I recognize the benefits that Social Media has in getting us all connected, there is NO better connection than being on a bike with friends!
Face time beats Facebook any day!
Make all your connections Fabulous ;)

School in Style: Back to School Essentials for Kids
Here are our picks for the essentials every kid needs to go back to school in style, and start the new school year off on the right foot!
Click on an item in the set below to see more info.
Bold Prints
This Fall, get basics like leggings and blazers in bold prints and mix things up! Your kid will make a statement on her first day by getting creative with interesting patterns on school staples.
Go Graphic
Graphic tees for boys and girls are fresh for Fall and are a great way to perk up a basic t-shirt. Paired with camo cargo pants, your kid will have a perfect first-day outfit to wow his friends with.
Playful Patterns
A great classic like a denim jacket is even better in a playful polkadot pattern. And basic jeans in playful hues like fuschia and bright blue are sure to make a splash. Don't be afraid to play with your patterns and colors this fall.
Animal Antics
It's no surprise that leopard print is big for girls' fashion this Fall. A pair of leopard print flats or a cat print graphic tee will spice up an outfit in a pinch, and give your star student just a little bit of an edge with her first-day look.
Bold Bags
Go bold with your backpacks and messenger bags this school year, too! A basic backpack in a print that pops will make your kid stand out from the crowd while she carries her stuff in style.
Creative Carriers
This Back to School season, ditch those stale pencil pouches and basic lunch basgs. Jazz up your kid's school day essentials by buying pencil pouches lunch bags in fun shapes and colors, and getting some accessories to go along with them so they can really express their style.
Organize in Style
Don't forget about organization must-haves! Sprial notebooks are perfect for note-taking, but give your kid a chance to express herself with fun accessories like decorative tape and stickers that pop.
Savvy Supplies
Tried-and-true school supplies like calculators, staplers, and scissors get an update this Fall with bright colors, fun textures, and decorations that pop. Definitely a good way to perk up your kid's bag!
Make a Statement
Sharpie pens in shades of neon, twistable crayons in every color of the rainbow, and an updated 8-pack of Crayola crayons are all new takes on essential writing utensils that every kid needs in their pack for the school year.
