A newly renovated Functional Training Center equipped for cutting-edge cross-fit workouts opened at Camp Stanley Jan. 28, in Bldg. 2609. The facility, which is next door to the Camp Stanley Fitness Center, is equipped with an array of fitness equipment that includes dumbbells, kettle bells, medicine balls, and TRX equipment - a system of bands suspended from overhead that rely on gravity and afford a workout to a variety of muscle groups and joints. Among Warrior Country officials who marked the reopening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony were Brig. Gen. Paul J. Laughlin, the 2nd Infantry Division’s Deputy Commanding General for Maneuver, and Col. John M. Scott, Commander, U.S. Army Garrison Red Cloud and Area I.
TCL 55FS3700 Review
If you're on a tight budget, buying an HDTV requires some form of compromise. It used to be that you had to give up both picture quality and features. You still won't get the best picture without spending an appreciable amount of money, but thanks to Roku TV, you can get a full-featured, affordable big TV for a very low price. Last year's TCL FS4610R series performed well and offered a slew of online services through Roku, earning it our Editors' Choice. It's being replaced by TCL's FS3700 line, of which we tested the 55-inch 55FS3700. Its $598 retail price is a full $80 less than the price of the 55-inch 55FS4610R from last year, and it delivers the same solid performance and offers loads of streaming media thanks to its Roku TV core. It easily earns our Editors' Choice for budget HDTVs.

Design
The 55FS3700$719.99 at Dell showcases TCL's typical understated, functional design aesthetic. The screen is surrounded on all sides by half-inch, flat, glossy black plastic bezels marred only by TCL and Roku logos on the bottom edge, and an indicator light just beneath the TCL logo. The screen stands on a clear-and-black, rectangular glass base that holds it up steady but doesn't let it pivot. This HDTV won't catch anyone's eye, but it doesn't look particularly cheap, either; it blends well into wherever you place it.

Facing right on the back of thr screen you'll find three HDMI ports, along with a USB port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a cable/antenna connector, an optical audio output, and a pinhole Reset button. Beyond those connections, the 55FS3700 also has a composite video input facing straight back, and that's it. A small joystick sits behind the screen on the lower-right corner and serves as a Power button and a simple input device, but it's best treated as a backup, and you'll want to use the included remote whenever possible.
TCL 55FS3700
The remote is almost identical to the one included with previous TCL and Hisense Roku TVs we've reviewed, and is very similar to the remote you get with Roku media hubs. It's a curved black wand with a purple direction pad, playback controls, and four dedicated service buttons (Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, Rdio, and Vudu) on the front. Volume controls and a Mute button sit on the right side. It's an infrared remote, so it requires line-of-sight with the HDTV and, unlike the radio remote used with the Roku 3, it doesn't have the handy headphone jack for audio streaming. Still, it's very functional and easy to use.
Roku TV
Like all Roku TVs, the 55FS3700 uses Roku's interface to provide access to online services and apps through Roku's Channel Store. All of the major media services are available, including Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Amazon Instant Video, SlingTV, and Twitch. There are also hundreds of topic-specific content channels and apps. In addition, you can wirelessly stream media from your smartphone or tablet with the free Roku app for Android and iOS. The app lets you use your mobile device as a remote, as well.
The HDTV's input options show up on the main screen at the top of the channel list, above any Roku content channels you've added. You can rename each input so you don't need to remember which device is connected to HDMI-1 and which is connected to HDMI-3, for instance.

Performance
We test HDTVs using a Klein K-10A colorimeter, a DVDO AVLab 4K test pattern generator, and SpectraCal's CalMAN 5 software. After basic calibration, the 55FS3700 displayed a solid 273.35 cd/m2 peak brightness and a disappointing 0.08 black level, for a 3,417:1 contrast ratio. It's unimpressive compared with more expensive screens, but it's standard performance for HDTVs in this price range. The 55FS3700 is a bit brighter than the 55FS4610R while displaying the same black level, so its contrast ratio is just slightly higher than last year's model.
TCL 55FS3700
Color accuracy is imperfect, as seen in the chart above. The boxes represent ideal color levels and the dots represent the 55FS3700's color measurements. White ran slightly cool, and green skewed quite warm, though blues and reds were fairly accurate. Unfortunately, the Roku TV system doesn't offer any in-depth color adjustments, so you can't tweak and calibrate the colors to perfection. Even simple adjustments like Brightness and Contrast are found under "Advanced Picture Settings," and you can't adjust color balance beyond three color temperature presets and a Tint setting.
The slightly skewed colors don't impact the image too much. In The Big Lebowski, the purple of The Jesus' outfit and the warm earth tones of the bowling alley looked a bit more vivid than preferable, but reasonably well-balanced despite the slight oversaturation. Skin tones also looked fairly accurate, though The Dude's face seemed a tad red. Fortunately, color saturation is one of the few picture settings you can change on a Roku TV, and turning it down slightly fixed the problem.
The Amazing Spider-Man's dark alley scenes were filled with shadow detail, but the blacks weren't quite as inky as they could be. You can coax the blacks a bit darker by adjusting the contrast level, but it will obliterate any shadow detail. The 55FS3700's budget price should be remembered when considering its picture quality; you can't reasonably expect outstanding contrast on a 55-inch screen that retails for less than $700, and with that in mind the 55FS3700's picture is perfectly serviceable, with fairly accurate colors.
Power and Conclusions
While the 55FS3700 is lacking in color accuracy, it's extremely impressive in response time. Input lag, the time between when a screen receives a signal and updates the picture, was just 28.1 milliseconds in our tests. This is remarkable for a 55-inch HDTV, and about twice as fast as other same-size displays we've tested. The screen has a Game mode, but it only shaved the response time down to 27.9 ms in testing.
Under normal viewing conditions, the 55FS3700 consumes 99 watts of power. The HDTV's Eco Save mode cuts that down to 82 watts and dims the screen slightly. Again, for a 55-inch HDTV, that's a very solid result, if slightly higher than the 55FS4610R's 91 and 77 watts respectively.
The FS3700 series shows that, once again, TCL and Roku can work together to produce a very compelling budget HDTV. Even though its picture won't wow you, at $600 for a 55-inch screen loaded with Roku's wide selection of content channels and media features, the bargain it presents will. If you want a big screen with built-in Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and other features for a low price, it should be at the top of your list. If you need a top-notch picture, be prepared to spend much more; even last year's Sony KDL-60W850B, which is a larger screen and offers incredible contrast, will cost you almost three times as much as the 55FS3700. The 55-inch LG 55EC9300$2,999.99 at Dell , meanwhile, offers the best 1080p picture you can get thanks to its OLED panel, but even though it's now available for just over a third of its initial price tag, it's still around $2,500.

The new self-checkout stations in the Central Library have a nice, minimalistic look to them. They're also faster, smarter and more functional than the old scan-one-book-at-a-time machines. Now you can fan out all your books, and -- as long as the bar codes are visible from above -- they'll all be scanned and checked out at the same time. Fast and easy.
In this photograph you can see the water running down the side of the caliche-covered county road and how the rain functions as an assist to those of us who like to collect on those roads. When the road grading machine took out the ruts from previous traffic and leveled off the road, it shoved some of the rock and sand and other material to one side and left a raised area that eventually gets thinned and flattened by the heavy rains, whenever they happen. The effect of that is to leave the larger rocks on the surface and easier (and cleaner) to recognize.

The Cochise Hotel is a historic and until quite recently, functional hotel located in the town of Cochise in southeastern Arizona. The hotel was originally built in 1882 by the railroad telegrapher and father of the town of Cochise, John Rath. The hotel was in continuous operation until July 2007, and is now the private residence of Phillip Gessert, who has begun the restoration process. The hotel was built with the purpose of serving railroad crews traveling through the town. The railroad depot, now gone, was located directly across the street.
After its opening in 1882, Rath and the Cochise Hotel served many purposes for the local community. These purposes included serving as the Wells Fargo office, the telegraph office, the community laundry and the local post office beginning in 1896. In 1899, Big Nose Kate, the famed sidekick of Doc Holliday, was hired to work in the hotel after Holliday's death. Wikipedia

The whimsical tropical underwater scene is created in this captivating image. The transparency of the shapes gives the sense that you are looking into the depths of an ocean landscape. The turquoise waters bubble up and colorful schools of fish swim by. In fact. it's a scanning electron micrograph of 'oval' shaped carbon particles prepared from edible 'olive' oil in a dry autoclave. These exceptional particles are functional as an anode for lithium ion batteries.

Take this multi-functional helper with you everywhere! Use it for grocery lists and coupons, home improvement shopping lists and paint/fabric swatches, gift shopping lists with a place for coupons and receipts, stick a pack of crayons in the pocket and let your children draw on the notepad while waiting in lines or at a restaurant. Fill it with just what you need and toss it into your car, diaper bag, or purse. Carry it when you travel, tucking your passport and tickets into the pocket. This is a GREAT gift for teachers and anyone else that likes to stay organized!
Includes a 5"W x 8"H lined notepad tucked into the right side pocket, a pen/pencil pocket, business card pocket, and a large pocket on the left side to help you keep your loose items contained. Felt stabilizer keeps the front and back covers firmly in shape.
The P1 Hand Phaser prop is "fired" by rolling the thumbwheel on top, forward. First the hooded "sight" rises, and then with the wheel at its extreme forward position, the light bulb in the emitter tip is lit. (this means that the actors always "fired" their phasers on the maximum setting!)
The actors also had to simultaneously seem to be pushing the stud on the bottom of the weapon, since that was supposed to be the actual trigger! (the button on the bottom wasn't connected to anything and actually did nothing).
Later in the series the actors were given non-functional dummy props. Eventually they got into the habit of holding their phasers to make it appear as though they were pushing something on top to fire the phaser. This is why fan drawings, including the semi-official Franz Joseph Starfleet Technial Manual, show the "rising sight" on top labeled as the trigger!
NOTE: the ATL replicas were a private project and not made for sale. None are available.

Western United States Rocky Mountain Horse Equine Facility
Triple S Ranch was a $7 million full service equine facility. Horses were bred, foaled, weined and trained for the breeding industry as well as the Kentucky show circuit.
The ranch was purchased as a 340 acre cattle ranch and took two years to transform into a full scale horse training facility.
It was built with state of the art technology for its time and could handle any equine event with its 120' by 240' arena, a detached veternary building complete with two foaling stalls, infra-red camera systems, a quarantine stall along with stocks to aid vet care and a fully functional area for the farrier.
Along side an office/trophy and conference room was an outdoor patio dining area complete with a full scale kitchen that could accommodate 100 people.
Other features of the facility was a tack/training barn that had the ability to tack up to six horses at a time along with two wash racks.
Included was a hot walker that could accommodate six horses adjacent to large grass turnouts.
Two shedrows that housed 28 horses with individual turnouts, round pens and outdoor arenas.
Also located on the grounds was a 40' by 60' equipment shop that held pick-ups and horse trailers along with tractors and other equipment necessary for the functioning of the facility.
The facility occupied 7 acres of the 340 acre ranch and the remaining land was set aside as pasture and hay fields.
The ranch was sold in 2014 and remains an equine facility under a different name to this day.

These are the cheapest possible vinyl tiles I could find. I could have put down black and white checkers, which would have been cooler, but that would have cost twice as much. And besides, it'll be covered in chicken litter soon enough.
These are adhesive-backed stick-down tiles. They are outrageously easy to put down; I did the middle of the floor in half an hour last night and the edges (which required cutting) in another hour this morning.
The Atlanta Hawks partnered with sports medicine researchers in 2016 to build an incredible new practice facility. The facility has been prized for its world-class, modern and clean design, and has set a new standard in the professional basketball arena. In order to maintain the same state-of-the-art design on the interior and exterior, they worked with ForeverLawn North Central Georgia to create an outdoor training area with a pool, surfaced with DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select HD, and SportsGrass Arena. The application of ForeverLawn products has maintained the superior look as well as the functionality for the high-traffic facility.
