We walked five kilometers around the esplanade and over Friday, June 21st the Steel Bridge. There were a lot of people walking for Consumer Council different reasons. We stopped at the Saturday Market 2:00-3:30PM and ate local food. It helped heal parts of our lives. In my life, from Wednesday, June 26th my view, Mindfulness Meditation the 5k walk 1:30 PM helped me with my Wednesday, June 26th past. Outing 2013 NAMI Northwest Walk NAMI Oregon (The National Al- liance on Mental Illness of Ore- gon)’s mission is to improve the quality of life of individuals liv- ing with mental illness and their families and loved ones through education, support, and advocacy. NAMIWalks is the largest and most suc- cessful mental health awareness and fundraising event in America. Through NAMIWalks' public, active display of support for people affected by mental illness, they are changing how Ameri- cans view persons with a mental ill- ness. This is leading to ensuring that help and hope are available for those in need. This year’s walk took place on Sunday, May 19th in Portland. This Eugene/Springfield contingency of Brethren representatives enjoyed a re- freshing cloudy Oregon day of walk- ing. Hi! My name is Haley and I am a new intern at Brethren Housing. I am a senior at the University of Oregon studying Psychology and Sociology with an emphasis on family and gender dynamics. In my spare time I love to read, scrapbook and golf (but only if the weather is nice). I’m very ex- cited to have the opportunity to work here with everyone! Pop into the office and say hello! Elizabeth spends a healing spring day making art in nature, at Delta Ponds May is almost gone and summer is almost here May is almost gone and summer is almost here. My plan's for this summer: It may seem like a tall order but I know I am able to do it; by the end of May I am going to stop smoking. (I just found out our wonderful manager Kimberley will be leaving us here at Afiya Apartments; I got a chance to get to know her; it saddens me to lose such a good manager). Back to my plans for this summer: I will start riding my bike; I’ll start out riding for a half hour work up to an hour etc. My big plan is to save enough to fly my son here. I have not seen him for five years. I will have him stay with me for a week. He is now 17 years old and I really look forward to getting to know him. Last but not least, I am going to volunteer some of my time at Lane Humane Society. ~ Bob Lakes ShelterCare’s Consumer Council’s Alternative Modalities for Recovery, May 17th Gardening Panel Speakers: Jen Anonia, Food for Lane County Gardens Program Manager; River Kourt consumer & gardener, Anthony Ireland-Martinez; and avid gardener Doris Sy- phers with her Service dog, Sadie. This little poem is for my friend Fearless Trust who was born a year ago. Her name is Pure Laughter. Fearless Take a technicolor daydream Let your mind and soul unwind You can make a mile up in a minute Because there's that much still to find Be your Mind See Your Mind There’s a great trip to find Be yourself You can regain all your health Know your health Love your mind Just care with all your time And your reward will be a quiet mind by Mark S. Wallenbrock Memory or Dream I'm listening to a good music mix Thank You Angel I hear this song called the Dance I'm thinking of our love I am lost without our romance Again I'm trying to make a deal with God "C'mon please just give me a chance" Please, please Lord, Please Mother of the Earth I thought you were being torn apart when you gave our daughter, and in some ways me, birth I was so scared, then you said look sweetheart she's ours “You are alright?” I said, trying to keep the fear from my voice Then I kissed you and you said was there a choice? Most of my friends have no idea what they believe in I believe in you You may not be 46 kilos soaking wet But I KNOW by all that is good and holy and belongs to love I looked in your eyes and like a child I said I can't believe we aren’t done yet You looked so beautiful as I pulled your soaking wet hair out of your face and kissed you ALMOST forever in your hospital bed But you started crying and told me "Don't leave me, my man, not even for a second” You had been through so much "I would do anything for her,” I reckoned Then you whispered "swear to me you will ALWAYS take care of us" I kissed you then held your hand and got down on my knees I swear my Angel, always Then my sweet, beautiful, gentle kind lady said “I would never hurt you, no, not meaning to” "But baby don't be upset, it's glorious; the time will be like a speck of dust" "Do you believe in me? Then you believe in us" "An Angel is with us and she is taking me but I begged her for a few minutes to hold you " I held her kissing away every tear, then I noticed she was gone I mean her soul I ran and got a nurse then a doctor Then the Doctor came out and said I don't know how she delivered the baby but she is gone now I heard music and ran to my new daughter I kissed her gently as I could and said, my baby it's just you and me now But I knew my wife was in my daughter somehow, STILL A daughter without her mother Without even a sister or a brother I slept next to my daughter until we went home I told you little Heather I will give you everything beautiful and loving It's always been like that baby, call or come by Or maybe I'll find a magic lamp and start rubbing I see love, caring, everything I tried to give you and much more Thank You little one I miss you Magdalena Sure I see you in my mija Que lastima, but I will try to see your Headstone in Spain So I can be true I have sooo much I have to tell you God knows I miss you Oh God Please by Mark S. Wallenbrock I just know it's gone all wrong I can't live my life from out of a song It seems I'm lost somewhere along the way You can’t see This hurt is real So don’t go on and make it a big deal But I guess I'll write words with no melody today I thought you saw me coming Just because I saw you running and suddenly your touch became too real You see it’s been my worst of years You don’t care about my tears I’m not going down your ice road again But in my mind yes I was running running to meet you all the way Its true I prayed that you were coming But I wanted the woman before you resorted to your speed I have enough problems to take care of your needs Maybe the life you should be living is deep inside your weeds But you must admit there’s something wrong I won’t even give you a song Just a poem that I doubt will take care of your needs Hurt me once it was you I wont let it get to two I will not give or take credit for your greed To see you go will be just fine I can have a rocking in my mind We can both be in a place Where co-dependence has no face So I’m telling you what’s true There’s no love here for you blue And I’m fading away See you in a dream by Mark S. Wallenbrock Community Voice What is one of the most important activities you have planned for the summer? “Financial freedom and a permanent house and job; reliable transportation.” “Shopping.” “Swimming.” “Rock ‘n Roll.” “See some friends.” “Get out and walk more.” Personal Successes “I’m inundating the job market!” “Getting my apartment the way that I want it.” “Coping with myself.” “Trying to be more assertive and to control my anger.” “I walked.” “Getting help with straightening up my apartment.” “I’m going to the doctor to get tested.” Thank you!!! to those Consumers who have chosen to volunteer, lending their time, energy, skills, and talents to the enrichment of this Community! We deeply value your contributions.

But CN Doors is no ordinary small town garage door installation and service company. Based out of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories (NWT) of Canada and servicing neighboring Nunavut, CN Doors services a geographical area of 1.3 million square miles – equal in size to ½ the contiguous 48 US States. Launched in 2004, the company is, according to Colin Cleveland, Operations Manager and co-owner of CN Doors, a specialist in servicing the arctic market. “Our tech guys routinely fly in with the Ice Pilots of Buffalo Air and drive the same ice roads as the Ice Road Truckers,” notes Cleveland.

  • Road Weather Condition Estimation Using Fixed and Mobile Based Cameras
    Road Weather Condition Estimation Using Fixed and Mobile Based Cameras Koray Ozcan1(&), Anuj Sharma1(&), Skylar Knickerbocker2(&), Jennifer Merickel3(&), Neal Hawkins2(&), and Matthew Rizzo3(&) 1 Institute for Transportation, Iowa State University, Ames, IA, USA {koray6,anujs}@iastate.edu 2 Center for Transportation Research and Education, Ames, IA, USA {sknick,hawkins}@iastate.edu 3 University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE, USA {jennifer.merickel,matthew.rizzo}@unmc.edu Abstract. Automated interpretation and understanding of the driving environment using image processing is a challenging task, as most current vision-based systems are not designed to work in dynamically-changing and naturalistic real-world settings. For instance, road weather condition classifica- tion using a camera is a challenge due to high variance in weather, road layout, and illumination conditions. Most transportation agencies, within the U.S., have deployed some cameras for operational awareness. Given that weather related crashes constitute 22% of all vehicle crashes and 16% of crash fatalities, this study proposes using these same cameras as a source for estimating roadway surface condition. The developed model is focused on three road surface con- ditions resulting from weather including: Clear (clear/dry), Rainy-Wet (rainy/slushy/wet), and Snow (snow-covered/partially snow-covered). The camera sources evaluated are both fixed Closed-circuit Television (CCTV) and mobile (snow plow dash-cam). The results are promising; with an achieved 98.57% and 77.32% road weather classification accuracy for CCTV and mobile cameras, respectively. Proposed classification method is suitable for autono- mous selection of snow plow routes and verification of extreme road conditions on roadways.

IRivers in the Montreal area burst their banks and submerged communities. In one community, a local pedestrian pier was completely submerged under 3 feet of water for 2 weeks. After the flood waters subsided, there was visible damage to the pier. There were several areas on the pier where the interlocking brick walkways had collapsed, indicating the presence of voids. Inspection of the vertical walls of the pier revealed cracks, further increasing concern that additional structural substrate had washed away. Local municipal officials were concerned that the pier may have more voids that could collapse, causing injury to pedestrians. The municipality contracted a Quebec-based Surface of pier showing concrete and interlocking brick surface materials and a void. geophysical service-provider to scan the pier and report The LMX200 ® was used to collect 12,500 feet of data on a pier that had suffered damage after extensive flooding. any problem areas. SUBSURFACE VIEWS OCTOBER 2017 2 The contractor had initially considered using electromagnetic induction to look for the voids; however, there were many metallic obstacles on the pier, including garbage cans and benches, that would interfere with the results. Instead, they decided to use GPR since the results would not be impacted by these metallic objects.

  • Managing the Safety of Ice Covers Used for Transportation in An
    MANAGING THE SAFETY OF ICE COVERS USED FOR TRANSPORTATION IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF CLIMATE WARMING Don Hayley, EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd., Kelowna, BC, [email protected] Sam Proskin, EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd., Edmonton, AB, [email protected] RÉSUMÉ Cet article propose une revue des risques inhérents à la gestion sécuritaire des routes de transport sur couvert de glace. La plus longue et la plus sollicitée des routes de glace du Canada dessert l'industrie minière de diamant dans la partie centrale des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et s’étend jusqu’à la région de Kitikmeot au Nunavut. La tendance climatique au réchauffement que vit le Canada a pour effet de raccourcir la saison d’opération de ce type de route à un moment où la demande du trafic est proche de la limite opérationnelle et tend encore à s’accroître. L’article décrit les améliorations apportées à l'efficacité des routes de glace par le développement de technologies pour améliorer la capacité structurale et par une gestion rigoureuse des risques. Ces améliorations permettent de gérer efficacement une plus grande incertitude sur les conditions d’exploitation tout en maintenant la priorité sur la sécurité des usagers. ABSTRACT This paper reviews some of the unique geohazards inherent in developing safe operating procedures for infrastructure reliant on ice covers. Canada’s longest and most heavily used ice road services the diamond mining industry in central Northwest Territories extending into the Kitikmeot region of Nunavut. A climatic trend to a diminished operating season is evident at a time when traffic demand is near the operational limit and future traffic growth is predicted.
