Have you seen those you-tube videos on making zucchini noodles at home? The ones I've watched use a fancy-schmancy spiral cutter that suction cups to your countertop. You insert the smallish zucchini into the pronged holder and turn the handle. The noodles spit out the end. You scoop them up off your counter top and place them on a plate or bowl. At least that's what the guy did on the video. The gadget looks cool. It leaves a small core of zucchini that can be cut up small and added to your pasta sauce. Pretty neat. I was tempted to buy the machine on Amazon.
It has 3 cutting blades that make low carb, angel-hair pasta from zucchini, plus spiral curly fries from potatoes and sweet potatoes, and paper thin vegetable slices for garnishes.
It is a cool gadget and I have a kitchen gadget addiction.
It was the first option I found for making low carb pasta from zucchini, butternut squash, and carrots.
Looking at the ads on Amazon, I could imagine myself setting it up on my counter top, and spitting out oodles of low carb zucchini noodles on a regular basis.
Using this machine I could disguise zucchini and sneak more healthy vegetables into the dinner menu.
It looked fun to use.
It offered another way to use up zucchini.
I don't need another machine that sits on my counter top.
I have trouble growing zucchini in my zone 3 garden, so I don't really have a lot of it.
Zucchini is available in August and September so the machine would be used 2 out of 12 months every year.
The machine is pricey at $25 to $40.
The machine is plastic — I hate plastic kitchen stuff.
Suction cups don't work on my 20-year-old countertops — there's nothing more frustrating than torquing a handle and have the suction cups give way on a gadget.
There are better, easier to use, and more compact options.
So I dug a little deeper, using you-tube videos on making zucchini noodles to get some ideas on other options. This wasn't the easiest quest. The search terms for the gadget I was looking for included "spiral vegetable slicer," "best way to julienne a carrot," "vegetable spaghetti," and "veggie pasta maker." I started out searching "how to make zucchini noodles." Some of the sites I found told me to just used my vegetable peeler and peel each noodle off the zucchini, one noodle at a time. I tried it. You'd laugh if you saw me.
Seriously, this ain't gonna happen. One noodle at a time for 4 people for dinner? Who has time for that? I admire those bloggers who have that much dedication to the low-carb, paleo lifestyle that they could spend that much time peeling off one zucchini noodle at a time. I know myself. I might do it once but there is no way that it would become a regular thing in my house. If I'm going to cook veggie pasta, it needs to be as quick as opening a box of spaghetti and dumping it in. No more than 5 or 10 minutes prep time. Max.
So I explored this veggie pasta world a bit deeper, still using the search term, "how to make zucchini noodles." I came across another gadget, "the spiral vegetable slicer." It is a tube with a blade on the side. You insert the zucchini (or carrot or cucumber) into the end of the tube and turn the vegetable against the blade. The julienne noodles spit out the side of the gadget. A smallish core of uncut vegetable remains. This can be cut up and added to the sauce, in the same way as the remaining zucchini, with the spiralizer tabletop gadget I mentioned at first.
It makes only one type of pasta — angel hair vegetable spaghetti.
It can only be used with tubular vegetables like carrots, small zucchini, and small cucumbers.
It's smaller than the spiral cutter, countertop machine, but still bulky.
In my continued search, I came across this handy, compact, stainless steel tool designed in Chicago — The UberChef julienne peeler. I ordered it on Amazon last Monday and it was here by Wednesday. It was a lifesaver because we got our first frost on Thursday. I went out to the covered garden bed and found all my squash plants black with death. I harvested a small basket full of young zucchini that had been kissed by frost.
Then on Thursday, some friends showed up, unexpectedly, to hunt in our area. Of course, I invited them for dinner. For the next 4 days, we had 3 extra guests for dinner each night. And these guys were hungry. Dinner was after 9 each night because they stayed on the mountain looking for elk until the last light faded. Two dinners featured zucchini noodles — one in a stir fry, the other with spaghetti sauce. After that kind of work out, I can tell you unequivocally, I love this gadget.
It's stainless steel with a really sharp blade.
There are no plastic parts.
It makes easy julienne strips from any size vegetable. These can be used as a salad, a garnish or as a veggie pasta like I did with these zucchini noodles.
It is slick and fast. Did I mention that the stainless steel blades are sharp? The tool glides down the length of your vegetable easily and your veggie noodles end up being as long as the vegetable. I turned 3 small zucchinis into enough zucchini noodles to feed 4 hungry men in less than 10 minutes.
It was fun to use, without any hand stress.
The blades clean up easily using my kitchen nail brush.
It's compact and fits easily in the drawer with my kitchen tools.
It's also a peeler, so with a single tool I can both peel and slice the vegetable that I'm working with.
The size of the zucchini noodles can be varied by how firmly the julienne cutter is pressed into the zucchini.
Large torpedo size zucchinis can also be used to make veggie pasta, as well as butternut squash, cucumbers, carrots, beets, pretty much any firm vegetable.
The tool will last a lifetime. It won't break if you drop it.
It can also be used to julienne other vegetables for salads, and stir-fries. You aren't limited to making zucchini noodles with this tool.
You may want to buy two, especially if you have help with meal preparation.
It was fast — as fast as using the more expensive gadgets.
This was the lowest price option of the 3 options for cutting zucchini noodles.
The tool is also a peeler and you can use it to make ribbon slices of zucchini noodles for veggie lasagna, too.
It couldn't be easier. Wash your zucchini. Cut off the blossom end and the stem end — or if your zucchini has had a frost and as beginning to turn mushy or show signs of mold, trim it thoroughly to remove any discolored portion. Place the zucchini on a cutting board. Have a bowl or plate ready to receive the julienne strips of zucchini pasta. Place the Uberchef tool on the end of the zucchini furthest away from you, with the julienne cutter against the vegetable. Pull the cutter toward you.
The blade cuts perfect zucchini noodles, as it juliennes the vegetable. You can vary the thickness of the veggie noodles by how deeply you press the blade into the vegetable with each cut. I tried it out on zucchini, carrots, beets, and potatoes. It did an admirable job in all cases. On the shorter carrots from my garden, I had to hold the vegetable firmly with a fork, in order to keep my fingers out of the way of the blade. It's very sharp.
Zucchini noodles can be served raw with a hot sauce poured over the top, which would lightly cook the noodles on the plate. I stir-fried the noodles in hot coconut oil, just briefly for 2 minutes before serving. Just enough to wilt them. The texture was similar to al dente pasta. Zucchini is a neutral tasting vegetable and the noodles were a wonderful foil to spicy tomato sauce, topped with feta cheese. In fact, it was so yummy that I plan to buy zucchini at the grocery store this winter. I've never bought a grocery store zucchini in my life! You know I'm hooked now.
Toss raw zucchini noodles into chicken soup stock, along with julienne carrots, and lots of parsley and let it heat in a slow cooker. The zucchini holds their shape and mimics wheat pasta admirably.
Zucchini noodles can be used for an Asian Stir-fry — use ginger, tamari or soy sauce, and garlic to spice it up.
Zucchini noodles can dress Italian with a tomato-basil sauce, an alfredo cheese sauce, or lots of browned butter and mizithra cheese.
Try your veggie pasta in a lamb curry dish using turmeric, cumin, garlic, cayenne, cardamom, ginger, and coconut milk in the sauce.
For more ideas in using zucchini noodles or veggie pasta in your menu check out my spice chart to make menu planning easier.
One more thing. When I bought my UberChef Julienne peeler, I received a link to the Uberchef Cookbook that highlights 25 pages of recipes using julienne cut veggies. I wish it had pictures. It doesn't. But there are a lot of ways to use julienne cut vegetables, in this bonus cookbook, and most of them are low carb. Included was a special discount code for 20% off your Amazon.com purchase of this Uberchef Julienne peeler or any other Uberchef product. (Coupon Code: LJFQGR8M).
Veggie pasta is one of my goals in my personal quest to get healthier this Fall, cutting down on carbs, and eating more healthy vegetables. My goal is to lose some weight, get more energy, get rid of the mind fogs and sluggishness that eating pasta and other wheat products gives me. Switching to zucchini noodles is one step on the journey.
Oh, and I've got another Julienne peeler on my wishlist at Amazon.com now. Just because I love working alongside Mr. Joybilee, and it's hard to share a single peeler between two. He thinks this gadget is pretty cool, too. And he actually likes zucchini noodles. Who knew?
Zucchini is a neutral tasting vegetable and low carb. The noodles were a wonderful foil to spicy tomato sauce, topped with feta cheese.
Wash and remove the ends of each squash.
Julienne slice each one into long thin pieces. Use a sharp knife to make even size cuts, use a mandolin slicer, or Uberchef julienne peeler if available, to save time.
Serve raw with a hot sauce poured over them, which would lightly cook the noodles on the plate.
Alternatively, briefly stir-fry the noodles in hot coconut oil, for 2 minutes before serving. Cook for just enough time to wilt them.
Just started following your blog from Australia (I've been asking you Qs about bees wax wraps this past week) and saw your pic…and our friend Frank in it! Small world.
You know Frank Piechnik, too? He's a kind, generous, faith-filled wonderful soul. And the brother to the brother in law of my sister in law.
Looks perfect and easy. I also dislike plastic and look for sturdy, long lasting tools.
Thank you so much for this link. I want to buy two, one for myself and one for my daughter. I love zucchini and since I'm trying to lose weight I'm sure zucchini noodles will be much better for me than the regular one I've been using.
I may not be able to use the coupon code when I order but I will be getting them.
I too have checked into getting the one that makes curly fries from sweet potatoes since they're supposed to be so much better for you than regular potatoes and am glad to have your opinion of it.
I think you'll like them, Molly. I used mine again tonight making sweet potato noodles. The coupon doesn't have an expiry so I think it will still work for you.
I haven't used a curly fry cutter so I can't offer an opinion. Sorry.
I tried to order it but the link I followed does not ship to my Canadian address. Is there another link that may ship here?
I'm gluten-free (not by choice) and really wanted to try the veggie noodles.
So glad I waited on the others – ordered this one; can't wait to try it!
My second one is in the mail now. I think you'll be very happy with your decision.
Thank you so much for this article on Pinterest! I have a spiralizer but am giving to Goodwill because it is difficult to use. O I looked at the one with 3 blades but something else on the counter or underneath the counter to store. The Uberchef Julianne peeler is perfect for me! Going to purchase this!
I think you'll love it. I'm getting a second one.
That's so cool! Is your Uncle Andy or Frank? Andy is married to my husband's brother's wife's sister. We just met Frank for the first time last week. Love them both!

Why Are There Two Styles of NC Barbecue?
Eastern-style or Lexington-style barbecue? You know what you like, but do you know how they both came to be?
written by Katie Quine
photograph by Travis Dove
You learn a little about humanity when you're a waitress. You learn a lot when you're a waitress at a barbecue restaurant.
During my summers in college, I worked as server at a barbecue restaurant in Charlotte. With my purple ink pen, I'd scrawl orders in my sauce-stained notepad and hop from table to table, pausing only occasionally to readjust my apron or retie my shoe or breathe.
In slow moments, I'd recollect my thoughts and write them down in that same notepad, filing notes away as material for a book I'd (still) like to write one day called Waitressing: Affirmation You're Not The Weirdest Person You Know. Here's a bit of what I learned:
1. Do not question the determination of someone who orders all-you-can-eat pulled pork, no matter how big you think the portion sizes are, because they will, in fact, eat it ALL.
2. To carry around a pitcher of sweet tea to top off customers' drinks is to be loved forever.
3. That is, unless you spill their drinks on them, which will happen — more than once.
4. The regulars can tell instantly if "you're not from around here." Confession: I was born in Arizona, but I got here as fast as I could. Please forgive me.
5. Lastly, never, ever get into an argument with your table about the merits of Lexington- versus Eastern-style sauce. The one server who did didn't last long.
I learned a lot in those three years, but sometimes the job left me with more questions than answers. How exactly did these two styles of barbecue, Eastern- and Lexington-style, emerge in North Carolina? (It should be noted that there's possibly a third style emerging in the western part of the state.) Why is barbecue preference the subject of so many feuds in our state? These questions have boggled my mind long enough, so now I'm getting answers.
Questions like these would require the knowledge of an expert, so I reached out to John Shelton Reed, co-author of Holy Smoke: The Big Book of North Carolina Barbecue, and he happily fills me in.
Barbecue as we know and love it got its start in the Caribbean, of all places, Reed says. There are descriptions of island barbecues dating back to the 1500s, which would involve cooking a less appetizing variety of meat — we're talking alligators, lizards, and fish — low 'n' slow and basting it with lemon juice and red peppers.
When the Spanish introduced hogs to both the Caribbean and the southeastern United States, pork became the meat of choice.
Reed says it's likely that this Caribbean cooking tradition was introduced to the mainland by slaves in the early 19th century. There's also a possibility that Haitian refugees who sought asylum in America following a revolution in their country played a role in this introduction, too.
But since lemons were hard to find north of Florida, vinegar was substituted for lemon juice elsewhere in the United States.
"Even in Texas, this was the sauce they were using everywhere in the 1850s, '60s, '70s," Reed says.
The South began to see a partitioning of barbecue styles following the commercial introduction of ketchup. Heinz unveiled the condiment at Centennial International Exhibition of 1876.
Eastern North Carolina kept to tradition while North Carolinians west of Raleigh and others throughout the South began experimenting with different types of sauce and meat.
So there you have it: Eastern-style barbecue is the truest there is — or not.
"I don't want to say 'the truest' because I don't want to take sides in that dispute, but it is the original, that's for sure," Reed says.
Ah, right. Word choice is critical in all matters dealing with pork and politics. My sincerest apologies, truest and original are two very different things.
But that still doesn't address how exactly Lexington-style barbecue veered away from NC Coastal Plain tradition, and it's important we answer it.
Full-fledged Lexington-style barbecue — or what we should actually call "Piedmont-style," as to not forget Salisbury's role in all of this — originated during World War I, Reed says.
Barbecue was sold on the streets in pop-up stands. It was much easier to cart around meat from pork shoulder as opposed to a whole hog you'd smoke at a pig pickin'.
Five of the men who are credited with creating this new Piedmont-style were all of German decent, according to the geneology research conducted by Reed's wife, Dale. Though their Pennsylvania Dutch ancestors had settled in the Piedmont in the 1700s, these men still loved a delicacy specific to one region of Bavaria: pork shoulder with a sweet and sour vinegar sauce. Therefore, Piedmont-style barbecue is a take on the German dish, Reed says.
Contrary to the belief of some Eastern-style purists, Piedmont-style sauce is not tomato-based. It still uses lots of vinegar but has a slight touch of ketchup that makes the mixture sweeter and redder, but not thicker. (If you're going to get angry about tomato-based blasphemy, you can blame the likes of Kansas City for that thick, flavor-masking hogwash.) Now whether a sauce that's mixed with ketchup is actually unholy is up for personal interpretation.
The next time you clinch your jaw or wag your finger when entering a debate with someone who stands on the opposite side of the Great NC Barbecue Divide, remember you might have more in common with this person than you think.
"Those two sauces are much more like each other than either one is like what you'd find in Kansas City or Memphis," Reed says.
And hey, we can all agree that pulled pork — not brisket or ribs — reigns supreme.
Perhaps it's best we approach this NC barbecue debate with the same sensibility and level-headedness as we do when examining the rivalry between UNC-CH and Duke. Sure, one school's choice of blue is questionable, but both universities are fine academic institutions with excellent basketba—I'm sorry. I can't do this. What am I even saying right now? Go Heels! Go America! Go Eastern-style barbecue! So much for remaining an unbiased journalist in this whole matter.
Regardless of where your allegiance falls, one thing is for certain: This state would not be the same without heated conversations about what's in the smoker. So keep the debate retorts and backhanded "Bless your hearts" coming, pass the pig, and always remember that our barbecue will forever best Texas's.

The NBA's newest $100 million man is someone whose story you can't help but love
Giannis in motion.
Image: Mike McGinnis/Getty Images
By Sam Laird 2016-09-20 20:12:11 UTC
The young man who not so long ago sold watches and sunglasses on the sidewalks of Greece to help support his Nigerian immigrant family just signed a $100 million deal.
Hardly more than three years back, Giannis Antetokounmpo was a hoop dreamer half a world away from the glittering arenas of the NBA and unknown to most of its fans. Now he's a budding star, one of the league's most beloved players and newly minted with a four-year, $100 million contract extension at just 21 years old.
It's a hell of a story.
SEE ALSO: NFL star Patrick Willis is thriving in retirement as a Silicon Valley tech worker
Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks agreed to his massive contract extension onMonday following the 6-foot-11 forward's third season with the team. The 15th pick in the 2013 NBA Draft averaged 16.9 points, 7.7 rebounds. 4.3 assists and 1.4 blocks per game last year.
But it's what came before that makes Antetokounmpo's current success all the more special.
'Sometimes, our fridge was empty'
Antetokounmpo flew a Greek flag at the 2013 NBA Draft.

In 2013, just after the Bucks picked Antetokounmpo in the NBA Draft, far-right Greek politician Nikolaos Michaloliakos compared him to a "chimpanzee" and said his parents should be put in an immigrant detention center.
Antetokounmpo's basketball success was celebrated elsewhere in Greek society. But the ugly comments from Michaloliakos, the leader of the Golden Dawn party, underscored his family's challenging journey. As Greece's economic troubles deepened, so too did anti-immigrant sentiment in many corners.
Antetokounmpo's parents immigrated to Athens from Nigeria in 1991 in search of a better life. Giannis, who has four brothers, would be born three years later.
But life was difficult in Greece as well. Giannis sometimes sold watches and sunglasses on the streets of Athens to help the family's finances, he told The New York Times in 2013.
"Sometimes, our fridge was empty," he said. "Some days, we didn't sell the stuff and we didn't have money to feed ourselves."
Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Greece anymore.
Image: Gary Dineen/NBAE via Getty Images
But damn, the kid could play ball. By age 18, Giannis had grown into a 6-foot-9 player with the agility and skill of one much smaller. Even playing in Greece's second division, word of his talent and potential spread enough to make him an NBA prospect.
"He's on the right track," one scout told the Times in 2013.
That was putting it mildly.
'I just play the game. I don't care about the scouts.'
Antetokounmpo soars for a slam last season.
Antetokounmpo began endearing himself to NBA fans from his very first interview as a Milwaukee Buck, speaking with Craig Sager minutes after he was picked in the 2013 Draft.
The mysterious rookie had none of the practiced cool that characterizes many American draft picks who've been hyped and coddled since they were pre-teens. Antetokounmpo was wide-eyed and earnest as he told Sager of his past and future in a high-pitched voice with a thick accent. Sager asked Antetokounmpo when he felt he'd become a bona fide NBA prospect.
"I don't really know," the teenager answered with a smile and a shrug. "I just play the game. I don't care about the scouts. I get to the NBA, just like that."
Antetokounmpo was seen as a long-term project, but exceeded expectations in his first season by making the NBA's All-Rookie second-team. In one of his first NBA games, he blocked Kevin Durant, the Oklahoma City Thunder star he'd told Sager on draft day was one of this favorite players.
By the time Antetokounmpo posted a now-legendary tweet about smoothies midway through his rookie season, the basketball world was smitten with the rookie on and off the court.
I just taste for the first time a smothie..MAN GOD BLESS AMERICA😊
— GiannisAntetokounmpo (@Giannis_An34) January 20, 2014
The Legend of Giannis only grew when his family moved to Milwaukee to be with him. He told Fox Sports Wisconsin about his mother's cooking and the rice and chicken dish that he loved in particular.
"I'm going to eat it after the game," the rookie said in his rookie season. "I'm going to be tired."
But while his humor tickled the more whimsical sensibilities of basketball fans, Antetokounmpo was making more hardcore hoop-heads drool with what he did on the court.
'It's a dream come true'
Antetokounpo is introduced before a Bucks home game last season.
You only need to search the #Giannis hashtag on Vine to get a sense of why he was deemed worthy of a $100 million deal heading into his fourth season.
Picture Stretch Armstrong, crossed with a pogo stick, crossed with a Harlem Globetrotter — that's more or less the psychedelic fever dream that is Giannis Antetokounmpo on a basketball court. Basketball fans now call him "The Greek Freak," a name he's fully earned with his play.
Here's Antetokounmpo passing the ball to himself off the backboard then scoring.
Here's Antetokounmpo setting up a teammate for an easy shot, then slamming home that teammate's miss with those Stretch Armstrong limbs of his.
Here's Antetokounmpo wrapping his arm around a defender to facilitate a teammate's easy score.
Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of Antetokounmpo's dizzying skill-set is exemplified in those passes. At the end of last season, with the playoffs out of reach, Bucks coach Jason Kidd began experimentally playing the 6-foot-11 Antetokounmpo, who has the height of a center, at point guard.
The results were exhilarating for Bucks fans, and terrifying for the rest of the league. In the team's final 26 games last season, Antetokounmpo registered five triple doubles, two more than any Bucks player had ever registered in a full season, according to Fox Sports Wisconsin. He averaged 18.8 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.9 blocks per game — eye-popping numbers for any NBA player, let alone a 21-year-old who not long ago was playing in Greece's second division.
But those days — like the days of wondering whether the family fridge would be full or empty — are now a world away.
"It's a wonderful feeling. I can't describe how excited I feel, you know," Antetokounmpo told Sager on draft day in 2013. "It's a dream come true."

< Return to Park-Euclid | Site Overview
Park-Euclid | Site History
2021 – Present: The Record of Decision (ROD) was issued in July 2021. The remedy is being implemented in accordance with the ROD.
2020: The Park-Euclid Working Group submitted the Proposed Remedial Action Plan (PRAP) for the Site to ADEQ for approval. Near the end of June, the PRAP was issued for a 90-day public comment period. The Park-Euclid Working Group also operated the soil vapor extraction system ERA at the Site and conducted soil vapor and groundwater monitoring and sampling at the Site.
2019: The Park-Euclid Working Group is currently preparing the Proposed Remedial Action Plan (PRAP) for the site.
2017: In October, the Draft Feasibility Study (FS) Report was completed by the Park-Euclid Group and given final approval by ADEQ in November.
2016: The Final FS was submitted to ADEQ in the spring for approval and public comment.
2015: In March 2015, The Park-Euclid Group submitted to ADEQ a draft FS and groundwater modeling reports to ADEQ for preliminary review. ADEQ's main concern was the uncertainty regarding the planned management of the treated water from the proposed groundwater pump-and-treat system. Therefore, other management options for treated water options were evaluated, including discharge to a nearby wash and injection back into the regional aquifer.
An Early Response Action (ERA) soil vapor extraction (SVE) system for removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the LVZ operated from February 2015 through November 2015, removing approximately 1,900 pounds of VOCs from the LVZ, including 250 pounds of trichloroethylene (TCE).
2014: The Park-Euclid Group provided ADEQ with technical reporting concerning its groundwater modeling for the FS (site-wide) and SVE pilot testing for the lower vadose zone, sampled groundwater (perched and regional) and soil gas wells at the site, and installed two regional groundwater monitor wells to further delineate the toe and the eastern extent of the plume. The Park-Euclid Group completed its biotreatability bench-scale testing and determined that neither biostimulation (adding lactate) nor bioaugmentation (adding KB-1 microbial cultures) were viable for treating cis-1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE), which is the dominant contaminant of concern in the perched groundwater.
The results of the Park-Euclid Group's human health risk assessment for the FS indicated that there is no unacceptable risk to onsite workers or offsite residences from the migration of VOCs in shallow soil gas into buildings. (Shallow soil gas samples were collected onsite and offsite.)
At the end of 2014, the Park-Euclid Group presented ADEQ with an interim update on its remedial alternatives screening for the FS.
The Park-Euclid Group shut down the multi-phase extraction (MPE) system in April 2014. From the pilot phase, October 2011 through April 2014, approximately 110,500 gallons of water were treated and a total mass of approximately 3,392 pounds of VOCs were removed, along with approximately 7,250 gallons of diesel free-product.
2013: The MPE system was restarted in January and ran continuously through February, after which it ran intermittently due to maintenance and overheating issues. Through the end of June, the MPE system removed approximately of 400 pounds of VOCs and 1700 gallons of diesel free-product. Groundwater sampling of all the monitoring wells occurred in February, with repeated sampling of the majority of wells in May and August. The FS work plan for future cleanup for the site was completed and approved in June and plans were made to install an additional regional aquifer monitoring well, upper vadose zone soil vapor sampling wells and a pilot SVE system for the lower vadose zone.
2012: As of the end of March, the MPE system had treated 8,565 gallons of water and removed a total mass of 542 pounds of VOCs. The MPE system operated routinely through September, and then was shut down for the remainder of the year awaiting additional permitting. Groundwater sampling occurred in January through March, and monthly from August to December.
2011: The MPE system was restarted in October. Groundwater sampling occurred in November and December. The final Remedial Investigation (RI) report was completed in November.
2010: In 2010, some of the potentially responsible parties at the Park-Euclid site signed an agreement to form the Park-Euclid Working Group to manage and fund remediation activities at the site with ADEQ oversight. The responsible parties at the site signed an agreement to form the Park-Euclid Group to manage and fund remediation activities at the site. Work plans were prepared and reviewed for groundwater monitoring and restarting the MPE system.
2009: ADEQ continued to work on completing the RI. No sampling was performed in 2009. Mission Linen operated the MPE system at the facility until June. A report detailing system operations was released in November. In this pilot phase of the MPE system, approximately 1,396 pounds of VOCs and 750 gallons of diesel free-product were removed, while treating 38,851 gallons of groundwater.
2008: Mission Linen completed construction of the MPE system to remediate contaminants including PCE in the perched aquifer and upper vadose zone. The MPE system became operational in April. Also in April, ADEQ installed a deeper sentinel well at the UAM-2 well location. This well is used for monitoring a deeper portion of the regional aquifer near the U of A wells.
2007: ADEQ selected a new consultant to perform site work. Periodic groundwater monitoring and sampling resumed along with monthly sampling of the UA production wells and ADEQ's sentinel wells.
2006: In August, ADEQ completed the Remedial Objectives (RO) report following the completion of the public comment period. The RO for land use beneath Mission Linen is to restore soil conditions to the State's non-residential soil remediation levels (SLRs). The RO for drinking water use of groundwater from the regional aquifer is to protect the use of the groundwater supply of the U of A and the City of Tucson from contamination from the site.
2004: In July, ADEQ released the draft RI report summarizing site characterization activities. Also, Mission Linen expanded the pilot SVE system and continued remediation of the shallow soils beneath the facility. An additional 420 pounds of PCE were removed from the shallow soils by the existing SVE system.
2002 - 2003: ADEQ installed an additional eight groundwater and three soil vapor monitor wells from May 2002 to February 2003. In February 2003, ADEQ conducted site investigation activities that focused on the sewer near the Mission Linen property.
2000 - 2001: In January 2000, three regional groundwater sentinel wells were installed south of U of A's Main Campus to monitor groundwater conditions up gradient of U of A's wells. In February 2000, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) informally delegated responsibility for the site to ADEQ through the RI/ FS stages.
In 2000, Mission Linen completed the installation of an SVE system beneath the facility at 301 S. Park Avenue. The pilot SVE system operated from June 2000 to August 2003 and removed approximately 6,000 pounds of PCE.
Since August 2000, monthly groundwater samples have been collected from the three sentinel wells. No PCE contamination above Aquifer Water Quality Standards (AWQS) has been detected in U of A's water supply wells.
From November 2000 to February 2001, ADEQ installed 12 additional groundwater monitor wells to further characterize VOC and diesel contamination in the two aquifers underlying the site. ADEQ conducted site investigation activities within the vadose zone and shallow aquifer.
1999: The site was placed on the WQARF Registry with an eligibility and evaluation score of 51 out of a possible 120. In October, ADEQ initiated an RI. As part of the investigation, ADEQ began sampling two U of A water supply wells located down gradient from the site.
1998: EPA initiated site assessment activities in the area with the installation of two up gradient perched groundwater monitor wells.
1994: Mission Linen began investigating the regional groundwater aquifer including the examination of potential hydraulic connections between the perched and regional aquifers.
1993: Mission Linen conducted investigations that focused on the perched aquifer and the installation of a short-term pilot SVE system.
1992: Mission Linen conducted a Phase I investigation, which included soil gas sampling, groundwater sampling and the abandonment of an inactive water supply well.
1990: During an early ADEQ investigation of diesel contamination in the area, a groundwater sample was collected from a well on the Mission Linen property. Analysis of the sample indicated that contamination was present in the well and was a combination of diesel product and VOCs, including PCE, TCE and 1,2-DCE.

Last week I was in Paris for fashion week, the final week of the month-long season. And dun dun dun… I didn't upload from the collection shows once! Bad editor? Maybe. Busy shooting something epic? Actually! As a reader, could you care less?
I created this beauty website so that I could work on something I am passionate about everyday of the week. It would almost be sacrilege if I didn't see great value in the collection shows – or more specifically what goes on backstage. That said, I am the first to recognise that the average girl does not 'fan girl' over Pat, Guido, Sam, Tom and Peter quite like I do, nor can she mention every Le Vernis shade from Chanel, by season. With that in mind, I felt a general resistance to sling together a trend gallery using purchased images from Getty or to publish a series of press releases on show how-to's complete with recommendations for products, I've never trialled.
Instead, I wanted to share something unique…And not much more says one-off than a an EXCLUSIVE backstage shoot with Kendall Jenner backstage at Dior FW 16 Ready To Wear in her beauty look, created by the greats: Peter Philips and Guido Palau.

Republican Kari Lake narrows gap in Arizona governor race

PHOENIX (AP) — The nation's last undecided race for governor got even closer Sunday as Democrat Katie Hobbs' lead shrank against Republican Kari Lake in the race to lead Arizona, but it was too early to call.
Hobbs led by 26,000 votes, a 1 point margin, down about 10,000 votes from a day earlier.
Lake has never led in the race but insists that she'll take the lead as early ballots dropped off at polling places are added to the tally. She won a majority of the 99,000 votes reported in Maricopa County on Sunday, but it's not clear if she'll be able to narrow the gap with the roughly 160,000 remaining to be counted statewide.
The Associated Press has not yet called the race because there are still too many votes left to count to conclude Hobbs' lead is insurmountable.
Democrats won the races for U.S. Senate and secretary of state in Arizona, but Lake is doing better than the Republicans in those races. A former television anchor, Lake is well known in much of the state and drew a fervent following among supporters of former President Donald Trump.
Lake is one of the most prominent election deniers running for office this year. Her supporters have been highly critical of the protracted vote count in Arizona, but it is nothing new in a state where the overwhelming majority of people vote on ballots they receive in the mail. Maricopa County officials reported that a record number of early ballots were dropped off at the polling place on Election Day, delaying the count while officials verify they're legitimate.

Republican Rep. David Schweikert took the lead for the first time but was less than 900 votes ahead of Democrat Jevin Hodge in a suburban Phoenix House district that Democrats have hoped could help them defy expectations and win a majority in the House.
In southern Arizona, Republican Juan Ciscomani maintained his narrow lead over Democrat Kirsten Engel for an open House seat.
Both races were too early to call.

Home Vegan Food What Is Vegan Cheese Made Of
What Is Vegan Cheese Made Of?
For those that are veterans of a plant based diet, the phrase will likely conjure up an image of unnaturally yellow slices or blocks of flavourless substance that belong as far away as possible from a plate of food.
However, as veganism has become more popular over the years, burgers and sausages have been perfected, enough different kinds of milk have become available to make your head spin and many omnivores (admittedly or not) would have a hard time telling between real and mock products.
Consumers, supermarkets and producers alike have jumped on to the plant based bandwagon, with the meat-free and dairy free vegan categories doubling in size over the last 5 years to a combined value of £600million each.
The UK's biggest supermarkets have increased their plant based ranges by up to a staggering 175% and demand for plant based foods outside of the supermarkets has been spurred on by food establishments from fine dining restaurants to fast food joints.
Despite all of this progress, vegan cheese has been seemingly left behind – until now.
With veganism's explosive rise in popularity showing no signs of slowing up any time soon and the market expected to be worth £2.8bn by 2024, a plethora of new dairy free cheeses have 'apparated' on supermarket aisles; sitting smugly by their dairy counterparts to tempt in ethically minded and curious consumers alike.
This new breed of 'cheese' goes big on taste and texture, with mock versions of popular types of cheeses – from creamy cheddar and Camembert to flavoursome Gouda, Halloumi & nacho cheese.
Whilst real cheese traditionally comes from cows, goats or sheep – we have soy, oils and nuts to thank for giving us an environmentally friendly, ethical and progressively delicious alternative to the substance that holds so many back from making the switch to veganism.
In this article, we take a look at the key ingredients that are used to make dairy free cheese, what unique properties they bring and the health benefits they offer.
There are so many different ingredients that can be used, and we expect there are even more that are yet to be discovered.
Take a look at the most popular ingredients used to make cheese – from the obvious to the more obscure.
Soybeans have been an ally of veganism since the early days, being responsible for the creation of staples including tempeh, plant milk, tofu and several meat substitutes.
Cheese made from soybeans won't have you mistaking it for the real thing, but grated and sliced varieties lend themselves well to burgers, pasta and pizzas where a scattering of well-melted cheese is enough to make the difference.
Low in fat, low in cholesterol and a good source of protein – these cheeses made from soy, can be enjoyed relatively guilt-free.
The Achilles heel of cheese made from soybeans is that allergies to soy are not uncommon, leading supermarkets and restaurants to favour more allergy-friendly alternatives.
Several types of nuts can be used to make dairy free cheese including cashews, almonds and macadamias – offering a naturally rich and nutty taste that is found in traditional cheese.
As the process of making cheese with nuts is more labour intensive and the raw ingredients are costlier, many kinds of cheese made with nuts are small-batch artisan style.
Nuts are naturally high in fat so it's best to avoid eating them by the wheel! The added health benefit of small scale production is that the product is usually less processed and more natural.
Like soy, nut allergies are not uncommon so some producers avoid using nuts in their production processes.
With nuts and soy both being relatively common allergens, many producers turn to oil to make their cheeses. Coconut oil is by far the most popular oil that is used and is the most common ingredient you'll spot whilst browsing the ingredient lists of popular supermarket cheeses such as Violife, Sheese and Applewood.
Coconut oil is touted to have many natural benefits but like nuts, is naturally high in fat so enjoy in moderation. Consumers should also be conscious of what additives and preservatives are added in packs of vegan cheese available on supermarket shelves.
Sunflower oil and palm oil can also be used to make dairy free cheese. In the case of palm oil, producers must be conscious of how this is sourced if they are to win over the ethical consumer that opts for the vegan version.
Nutritional yeast or 'Nooch' as it's known is a staple vegan cupboard filler that has provided a nutty and cheesy flavour to vegan dishes since its inception in the 1950s.
With a flaky consistency, Nooch is a super versatile essential that brings an extra dimension to soups, salads, pasta and just about any other dish whilst providing the B12 that vegans so crave.
To make plant based cheeses, nutritional yeast is combined with ingredients such as paprika, garlic and chilli to create parmesan style cheeses that can be shaken onto dishes for added flavour.
Sunflower seeds are a lesser-used ingredient which result in a creamy substance that can be substituted for both cream cheese or semi-soft cheddar.
Due to the soft texture, cheese made with sunflower seeds can easily be packed with other ingredients such as olives, peppers and chillies to create flavoured cheeses.
Sunflower seeds are a superfood which are naturally rich in protein, healthy fats and vitamins including vitamin A, B1 & B6.
Sprouted brown rice was originally used by MozzaRisella to create their line of award winning cheese, this was also the first plant based cheese to be made in Italy.
Since then, other producers have taken on the idea of using sprouted brown rice to create cheeses, resulting in a creamy soft cheese that melts well and is perfect for spreading.
Germinated brown rice is an excellent source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibres – making this cheese healthier than most others.
More producers and consumers are beginning to realise the true value and versatility of hemp, resulting in a host of new products being released; from beauty to foodstuffs.
With a naturally rich and nutty taste, hemp makes for the perfect alternative for those of us that cannot enjoy nuts due to allergies.
In the world of fromage, hemp is mixed with sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast and spices to create a parmesan style cheese that adds flavour to salads, soups and more.
Given the success of oat milk as a delicious, environmentally friendly milk alternative, it was only a matter of time before we saw an oat-based cheese grace our shelves.
The varieties made with oats is semi-soft, easily flavoured and can be combined with real ingredients to create flavoured cheeses.
Brands including Lauds, Miyokos, DIVA, Rooted Delights and giants Oatly all have cheeses within their range that use oats as the base ingredient.
Lupine (sometimes spelt 'Lupin') is a plant that produces lupin beans, a popular food in traditional Mediterranean cuisine.
Lupin beans are used as the primary ingredient in Veggie Karma's range of artisan cheese which includes aged cheeses, parmesan and Sant Andreu aged. Other producers use lupin beans to create mouth-watering soft spread cheeses.
As well as being lower in carbs than wheat products, lupine contains prebiotic fibres that can assist the growth of friendly bacteria in the gut.
No longer reserved exclusively for body butter and creams, shea cheese is a real thing!
Extracted from the nut of the African shea tree, shea is used by cheese producers to create a myriad of different styles of cheese including the holy grail that is vegan camembert.
Shea is a natural antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory properties. It's also great for your skin; but we wouldn't recommend rubbing cheese on your face!
Another lesser used ingredient that some producers are having wild success with is wheat.
Due to the fermentation process involved, the cheese is able to develop flavours that are simply not found on supermarket shelves.
Producers including Max & Bien and Herbie are both utilising wheat in their cheese making processes – with award winning results.
Of course, plant based cheese can also be made with plant based milk. The best milk will be dependent on the cheese which you wish to create.
Unlike traditional cheese, cheese made with plant based milk does not coagulate the same way and should therefore be aged with other methods.
Plant based milks including coconut, soy, rice, almond and oat can all be used to create innovative cheeses – all offering their own unique qualities to the finished product.
Due to the unique properties potato starch offers, it is possible to create delicious, gluten-free cheeses using it as the main ingredient.
Cheese made with this starch is semi-hard and melts beautifully, making it ideal for pizzas, nachos and cheese on toast.
Go Veggie uses potato starch in their plant based shreds range which includes mozzarella, Mexican and cheddar products.
We're not kidding! Whilst uncommon, carrot is now being used as the key ingredient in cheese and in the world of vegan substitutes, there are certainly more unusual ones out there.
Soft texture, sweet flavour and natural orange colourings – why didn't we think of this sooner? What's more, carrots are loaded with good stuff like fibre, vitamin K and potassium.
Producer Vertigo uses carrot as the primary ingredient in their cheddar range which includes spicy cheddar, dill cheddar and 'freestyle' cheddar – the products have fantastic reviews so let's see if it catches on.
Butterbean
Still not kidding…
Producer WayFare use butterbeans as the primary ingredient to their range of soft, spreadable cheeses which are almost identical in taste and consistency to leading brands of cream cheese.
Butterbeans are a nutrition powerhouse packed with minerals, complex carbohydrates, vitamins and protein. Perfect for mac and cheese!
Ok, now we are kidding. But hey, anything is possible!
Lab-Grown Cheese – Coming Soon!
One of the most exciting developments to rock the plant based cheese world is the potential of lab-grown cheese. You may have heard of lab-grown meats that are being developed, but how exactly does cheese work?
In Israel, start-up 'Remilk' is taking a completely different approach to creating the perfect cheese – using bacteria to grow casein (one of the key ingredients in cheese) and using it to create the real thing without a drop of cow's milk involved.
This approach to creating a cheese that's identical to a traditional cheese in every way except the use of animals will surely be enough to sway the "I'll just miss the cheese" gang.
So when can you expect to see it on your shelves? The company recently completed a million dollar funding round and expect that their product will become commercially viable by the end of this year!
Plant based Cheese Flavourings
By default, vegan cheese can be fairly dull and tasteless. Whilst this is not an issue for pizzas, nachos, pastas and other foods where you just require a melted texture – it does cause issues with any fromage lovers that crave the rich creamy taste offered by dairy cheese.
Fortunately, there are hundreds of ingredients that can be added to vegan cheese to create a sensation of the taste buds. Some of the most popular flavourings and additions include:
Sundried tomato
Caramelised red onion
With vegan cheese, we are still in the early days of development in comparison to traditional cheese.
There are no strict rules on how a certain cheese must be made, which means that producers can get creative and trial new ways of doing things to create new and innovative products.
How Is Vegan Cheese Made?
The process of making vegan cheese will depend on the base that is being used as the primary ingredient for the product.
In most cases, it's simply a case of blending up ingredients including the flavouring before leaving to set and then serving.
Generally speaking, the other ingredients include water, starch, oil, spices and seasoning. Some recipes may ask for more specialised ingredients like citric acid, gellan or xanthan gum which bring their own unique properties to the product.
If you plan to make vegan cheese at home, we would suggest opting for a recipe that uses nuts, (please check allergies!), as these methods require no specialist equipment other than a blender and can be made in a short time with minimal cooking experience required.
However, if you really want to develop the flavours like artisan vegan cheese, time is key. Many professionals in the vegan cheese game will wait weeks or even months to ensure that the full potential of their product is realised, even threading copper wire to mimic blue cheese.
Health Benefits of Vegan Cheese
The health benefits of vegan cheese you are enjoying will largely depend on what ingredients it is made from. However, you can generally expect the following benefits:
Lower in fat than traditional dairy cheeses.
Lower in cholesterol – most vegan cheeses contain none!
No growth hormones.
Protein-rich versions are available.
Free from carcinogenic animal protein.
Free from saturated animal fat.
Can be fortified with B12 and other vitamins.
Like dairy cheeses, vegan alternatives should be enjoyed in moderation and consumers should be mindful that supermarket cheeses are processed foods that are often high in sodium.
Why Choose Vegan Cheese?
With new tastes and styles being developed constantly, we don't expect it will be long before vegan cheese will rival or even surpass the taste of traditional cheese.
For non-vegans, unlike meat where an animal is directly involved, it can be hard to make the connection with vegan cheese and understand why people choose to eat it.
Here are some of the reasons why you might choose it over dairy cheese on your next shop:
Generally lower in fat.
Lower environmental impact.
No animal involved or harmed at any stage of the process.
Similar price to dairy cheese.
Range of flavours and styles available
Wide range available right here!
With more products than ever now available and supermarkets making them prominent throughout their stores, we expect that many curious omnivores will be tempted to slip a packet into their basket (we won't tell).

The force will have to ask the Sûreté du Québec for help if their only officer is away and the lack of officers could also be problematic when a case makes its way to court.
"[Drugs are] more subjective so there might be more of a difficulty getting the charge in front of the court versus alcohol is very scientific, it's very known to the courts and it's just an easier conviction to get," said Céline Dostaler, a criminal defence lawyer.
She said in the past five or six years, she's only dealt with two drug-impaired cases, versus numerous alcohol-related impaired charges.


WSJ today bought this image to my attention. It is an advertisement for Amazon Kindle, highlighting its mobility. The message is… You can immerse yourself in an ebook anywhere in the world. This situation is a competition between Cusco in Peru and Amazon Kindle for delivering an immersive experience. Which one will win, given this dude?
Or, will there be a blending of experiences? Maybe the ebook is about identifying the high mountain ranges of Peru. Further, instead of a Kindle, what if he had a Samsung Gear VR in his hands? Or, instead of perching on a Peruvian mountainside, what if he was sitting in his living room? Would any of these situations change the immersive experience?
A recurring theme for the IA community is understanding the immersive experience and why/how it is useful. Why did this person take a Kindle on this hike? I know, Amazon paid him to make this ad. But imagine that you are starting on a lovely hike, would you (and why would you) take an ebook reader? Is it to enhance the experience of the hike? Or, are you easily bored and need to escape the physical realities of the hike. Or, are you in the middle of a good novel whose virtual reality constantly beckons you?
Let's take this situation one level deeper. Assume that this person is a geologist investigating mud slides that have killed several persons last week. He is advising local authorities on whether to evacuate villages in the Peruvian mountains. Now the situation is serious – much more than a leisurely hike. He has probably studied satellite images and viewed the region from a helicopter recently. Now it is boots-on-the-ground to poke at the rocks.
Would he bring a Kindle? Maybe, but more likely a full tablet with those satellite images and all the geo-data for this region. Would he bring a Gear VR? Maybe, if his helicopter was rigged with a full VR camera that took hi-res 3D images of this same mountain slope. Now he could re-experience the fly-over so that he could precisely position himself to take soil samples.
It seems likely that, as VR technology matures, it will become seamlessly integrated into our daily activities, for simple entertainment or for serious endeavors. Immersive analytics will come along for the ride! Our geologist may use his tablet to create a few Qlik sheets comparing the history of mud slides for this region, while using his Gear VR to run earthquake simulations showing flow patterns for mud slides.
The challenge for the IA community is to create immersive data worlds that will enable our geologist perform his work more effectively. According to the virtuality continuum of Milgram & Kishilo, where will immersive analytics be more effective? Will it be augmented reality (like Hololens) or augmented virtuality (like Gear VR)? To answer these questions, we will need to understand the immersive experience and why/how it is useful.

HYSTERICAL: Anna Freud's Story
The life of pioneering child psychoanalyst Anna Freud (1895-1982) was, by any standards, extraordinary. It spanned two centuries, three continents, and both world wars, and was enlivened by her and her father's relationships with some of their era's most brilliant minds. Anna was Sigmund's favorite child, the youngest of six. As a teenager she became his sounding board, talking with him each night as he shaped his theories. As he aged, she became his chief protector and a profoundly influential psychoanalyst in her own right. Yet despite the several serviceable biographies of Anna written by Freud aficionados, the public only knows half of Anna's story. They don't know all of it because Anna's secrets would shake the foundations of the Freud legacy.
Suspecting that his favorite daughter harbored secrets that could haven shaken the foundations of his growing legacy, Sigmund broke his own steadfast rule against psychoanalyzing family members. Was that analysis the erotic echo chamber that he warned analysis always is? Who was Dorothy Burlingham, a figure that most of Sigmund's biographers have tirelessly ignored? How did Anna manage to live a full life and become a guiding force for analysts, educators, and humanitarians, all while devoting herself to her wary father as he aged and died? In HYSTERICAL, Anna tells her story for the first time.
Memoirs that turn out to be highly fictionalized (i.e. James Frey's A Million Little Pieces and Herman Rosenblat's cancelled Holocaust memoir) raised a lot of ire several years ago for misleading readers. Do you think writing a fictional autobiography that is clearly labeled as fact-based but invented runs the same risk of deception?
In HYSTERICAL, upon discovering Anna's family exposé, Paula Fichtl (who for nearly 60 years tended to the Freud family) dusted the manuscript off and then exuberantly threw it into the trash. What do you think of this action? Do you think HYSTERICAL's Anna would have found any humor in Paula's having carried on her tradition of incessantly tidying up? She did, after all, write "Paula, I consider it my pleasure to have known you and to have received your care. I leave this manuscript to you. Please keep my secrets safe until I am gone, and then release them."
Now, nearly thirty years after Anna's death, gay marriage is celebrated and in the headlines. Sigmund Freud's theories have been roundly challenged and are almost seen as archaic. What do you think the famously private Anna Freud would have thought about HYSTERICAL?
After all is said and done, do you think HYSTERICAL is a flattering or unflattering portrait of Sigmund? Of Anna?
Were you aware before reading HYSTERICAL about how Sigmund's ideas about female sexuality have informed the culture? What do you think of those ideas—ones like the idealization of female masochism as a necessary part of the chain of life?
Before reading HYSTERICAL, were you aware of how Anna's ideas have informed educators' and psychologists' understanding of children's need for attachment and for learning through exploration? What do you think of those ideas?
How do you think Anna found it in her heart to love Sigmund so tirelessly, even given the limitations he may have put on her? Should her love for him be seen as an example of self-loathing or of self-love?
For you, who was the more sympathetic character of Anna's two parents? Certainly both were portrayed in HYSTERICAL as flawed. But who do you think did the better job of parenting?
Much historical information about Anna Freud continues to be held at bay by The Freud Archives, which holds the copyright to Anna's diaries and papers. Given that her secrets are beginning to be leaked anyway, do you think this policy should (or will) continue?
The world "hysterical" is still in common use today to describe a loss of emotional control. How is this different from its use by Sigmund Freud and his contemporaries? Do you think it has lost all of its pejorative meaning?
Anna says about her ongoing polite behavior towards Ernest Jones, "The bond of victim to perpetrator can be a strange one, laced with a tie no truly free person could understand." In HYSTERICAL, do you think this statement has any bearing on her tolerance of her father's and sister's failings? On interpersonal dynamics in general?
A joke Anna tells:
Two fish are in a tank.
The first fish says to the second, "So, how do we drive this thing?
She tells it when introducing the idea that she allowed her father to analyze her. Might that statement also describe the inevitable failings of most parents in most families?
After Anna listens to her father disclose her secrets in an academic paper, she turns for comfort to Otto Gross, a one-time colleague of her father who has for several years been struggling with madness. When Anna bemoans that she doesn't want to be a pervert, Otto says to her that she isn't one but that her father might be. "Perversity is whatever arouses curiosity but discourages understanding," Otto says. What do you think of that definition of perversity? What do you think of it in relation to Sigmund?
About family dynamics in general, Anna says, "Sometimes facts can behave like trick billiard balls, crashing deafeningly into one another, scattering spectacularly, careening recklessly off what is known and unknown, and then coming to rest in suspiciously tidy patterns." Do you agree? What do you think of "suspiciously tidy patterns" when you hear or read about them? Do you have any such patterns that you have placed on your own history?
Using only one, brief sentence, what would you say is the theme of HYSTERICAL?

Pacific Power would get more land
That could be a big motivation for removal
By Caleb Maplesden Pioneer Press May 2, 2007
SISKIYOU COUNTY - Every inch of land that is under water at Copco Lake is currently owned by PacifiCorp according to Mike Mallory, Siskiyou County Assessor.
"The land underwater is currently zoned for 40 acre parcels," said Mallory.
If the dams were removed, PacifiCorp would add 1,825 acres of riverfront property to the 16,212 acres they already own in the area.
However, this land may be totally unusable for many years according to Mallory.
"The sedimentation is a big issue," said Mallory.
Since you can't build on sediment, most of the land cannot support construction of any kind. The majority of the sediment is small enough to be carried down the river by natural erosion processes according to the California Coastal Conservancy.
"It seems crazy that they think that sedimentation issue would be solved by washing it down the river. It seems like that would just ruin the river down the river," Mallory said.
Copco Lake is the largest private property bordered lake ever to face removal.
"There has never been a dam removal of this magnitude, ever," Mallory told the Pioneer Press.
There are over a thousand properties that would be affected by the removal of the lakes according to Mallory.
Lakefront properties would face the most drastic drop in property value followed by properties with a view of the lake. Properties whose access passes the lake would have the lowest drop in value.
Irongate Lake Estates would probably face a drop in values because of the loss of recreational opportunities provided by the lake.
"If they (the dams) went away, I think there would be lawsuit after lawsuit for the people that live there," Mallory told the Pioneer Press.
"I don't know if they would go after FERC or who they would go after." Mallory said.
The county wants the dams to remain in place according to Mallory.

James MacMillan - Lassie, wad ye loe me?
A touching setting of an anonymous love poem in broad Scots, composed for the wedding of some friends of the composer. The attractive folk-like melody is clearly stated, sometimes with full harmony and in other places picked out by supporting drones. Multiple divisi are scored in all voices, and also an optional soprano solo. For mixed intermediate choir a cappella, with piano accompaniment for rehearsal only.

Home Events Weekend of maiden wins
Weekend of maiden wins
Kevin Na.....survived air swing claims to take maiden win
IT WAS a weekend for maiden victories on the US golf tours with Korean-American Kevin Na winning his first PGA Tour title, Kiwi Danny Lee winning his first Nationwide Tour championship and Kenny Perry lifting his first Champions Tour trophy.
After eight seasons of trying, Na had a two shot win over Nick Watney at the 2011 Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children tournament in Las Vegas.
Na's third round featured what first appeared to be an air swing but on closer inspection it was deemed by officials he had backed off as he began his downswing and deliberately missed the ball.
Na seems to have been on the tour for ages – his family arrived in the US when he was an 8-year-old with precocious golfing talent – but in fact is still only 28 and has a lot of golf in front of him.
Aussies fighting for tour cards
The championship featured a number of Australians fighting to finish in the top 125 in the money list and thus retain their tour cards for next year.
Steven Bowditch and Nick O'Hern led the charge, tying for 23rd and improving their positions. O'Hern moved to 111th and is in the more comfortable position while Bowditch improved one spot to 130th and needs a good performance in one of the three remaining Fall series events to secure his 2012 card.
Rod Pampling and Nathan Green were next best at T34, with Pampling retaining his 119th position and Green in real danger at 176th.
Green opened with a sizzling 64 to be just off the pace but didn't keep contact with the leaders, finishing on 12-under, a long way from Na's 23-under winning mark.
Lee wins 2011 WNB Golf Classic
New Zealander Danny Lee showed immense promise as an amateur, winning the 2008 US Amateur Championship and then beating the mainly pro field at the 2009 Johnny Walker Classic in Perth on the PGA Tour of Australasia.
It has taken him 19 starts to take his first professional title and it looks like he has done enough to secure his PGA Tour card for next year.
The 21-year old Lee started the final round of the WNB Golf Classic at the Midland Country Club in Texas six strokes off the lead and took the title on the first play-off hole against fellow Nationwide rookie Harris Enlglish.
Lee started the final round six strokes off the lead and managed to hold his nerve to take out the title on the first playoff hole against fellow rookie Harris English.
"It feels great to win again," Lee said. "I haven't won a tournament since I won the 2009 Johnnie Walker Classic and it's a great feeling. It's not easy to win and I worked really hard with my uncle and my coach for this. I'm really happy it worked."
On the Champions Tour, 14-time PGA Tour winner Kenny Perry won his first title on the over 50s tour in his second season.

A barrage of nearly 200 aftershocks has rocked the area after the original magnitude 7 quake.
Late last night I received an email from Bill Laughing Bear's lovely mother Tina, regular readers of The Big Wobble will know Bill is in constant contact with us bringing news from Alaska, namely radiation in Alaskan fish, Bill is fine.
Last night's quake was the 13th and last major quake of November and the 119th of 2018.


I don't really see the appeal in this — I'm a purist Google Now Launcher fan, myself — but I'm definitely not against giving Android users as many customization options as they can handle. This one feature in particular provides the ability to "normalize" the many differently sized icons on many an Android home screen, making things look just a bit more uniform.
To join the Nova Launcher beta, you need to join the Nova Launcher Beta G+ Community, opt-in for Nova Launcher on the Play Store, opt-in for TeslaUnread, and then wait for a beta. If you're already part of the beta program, all you have to do is head over to an APK repository like APK Mirror to grab the latest version and install it manually.

The Final Season - Week 7: 2001: A Space Odyssey
Stanley Kubrick, 1968
The deliberate pacing and orchestral score of 2001: A Space Odyssey lends gravitas to this epic, ambitious film. From the dawn of man to our future in space (and beyond), Stanley Kubrick's opus revolutionized special effects and science fiction. It's influence is still felt today, even beyond the 5-note opening whollop of a score (Also Spoke Zarathustra, written by Richard Strauss in 1896 and inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophical novel, now forever known as "That 2001 Music").
