Okay, so the calendar and the trees agree that it's spring in Germany, but the temperature here in Munster provides some argument... :-)

This is the best investment we have made in our new home.
When we picked out the options for our new house several years ago, I am glad we got this place prewired for a security system.
As soon as we moved in a security company was contacted and we were active.
It is worth every penny for the peace of mind we get.
There have been several homes in our development that have been broken into. None of them had security systems.
The sign out front helps too. Police say a lot of people just have signs and no system.
Me, I don’t want just a plastic sign to protect my house.

With too much tension over the politics the UN supported a concert of regional musicians. The audience was kitted out in national colours; Red, Yellow, Green. The concert was broadcast on national TV, for those who have electricity
Dujiangyan Irrigation System, Sichuan, China 25 April 2009. Amazingly, the system was originally constructed in 265 BC by Li Bing, Governor of the Shu for the State of Qin. It was built on the River Minjiang, the longest tributary of the Yangtse, which was very prone to flooding at this point. Unfortunately, a very severe earthquake in 1933 destroyed much of the system but it was reconstructed to the same layout. Another earthquake in 2008 damaged it but it was repaired. Pictured is a view from the upstream end of an artificial island/dyke (the Yuzui or Fish Mouth Dyke) which divides the river into the inner (deep and narrow) and outer (wide and shallow) channels, the former being for irrigation purposes.

Autocar Heil Freedom Superlight Curotto can
Back in November, WMmaster626 and I went to Moreno Valley and found a truly one of a kind refuse truck, especially in SoCal! A Autocar Heil Freedom Superlight Curotto can, unfortunately we were not able to film it in November and often WMmaster626 and I would talk about the superlight and wanting to film it. So on 1/22/16 we went to Waste Managements Moreno Valley MRF, waited for the Superlight to arrive and followed it to Unincorporated Perris/Riverside. During our November visit we spoke to a real nice driver named Dave who has been with WM for 27 years. We talked to him for a while and eventually NEWCO Waste Systems got brought up and he talked about WM Moreno Valley getting some of their routes in 1999. Unincorporated Perris/Riverside is the area Dave must have been talking about. Many of the NEWCO carts WMmaster626 has filmed in Arcadia were in this area. There were NEWCO zarns, 96 gallon blue and black toters even black and blue Rehrigs and of course 96 gallon black Turn-Keys along with NEWCO dumpsters that were still blue with NEWCO logos on them. We also found a Heil Python on route that was fun to watch.
So between the Superlight, the Python and perhaps the biggest shock, a ex NEWCO route it was a great day full of surprises. Thank you WMmaster626 for coming and arranging today, Thank you John (Superlight) and Raul (Python), you are both very professional and efficient drivers. I would also like to Thank John Curotto and the Curotto staff who made this awesome carry can. AFL’s have always been my favorite refuse truck. I grew up with S.T.S. Autobuckets, Heil Autocans and of course Curotto cans, so thanks for making this amazing carry can!
Invented in 2009, the Superlight is a Curotto can that is lighter than the Slammin Eagle. The dumpter is primarily made of special high strength Kevlar fabric and weighs only 1,200 pounds (compared to a Slammin Eagle which is closer to 2,000 pounds).

Improved Civilian Education System offers Army employees new opportunities for professional development
By Amanda Rodriquez, U.S. Army Installation Management Command
SAN ANTONIO – Thirty-four Army civilians from Joint Base San Antonio’s Fort Sam Houston graduate Feb. 15 from the first U.S. Army Civilian Education Course offered by the Army Management Staff College at the U.S. Army Installation Management Academy.
The course marks the initial venture of AMSC’s year-old mobile training team away from its Fort Leavenworth, Kan., headquarters.
“Our first class offered at IMCOM is the Intermediate course,” Mark Smith, a human resources specialist and IMCOM’s CES registrar, said. “A team of instructors from Fort Leavenworth is here now and will return again to offer the CES Basic course in June and September. It’s a great opportunity for our local Army civilians and with classes quickly filling, we’re optimistic about hosting more in 2014.”
The three-week course, which began Jan. 28, is full. In fact, the June Basic course is nearly full as well, thanks to IMCOM’s effort to promote seats, seeking students from other commands. According to Army training staff, strong partnerships among the JBSA Army commands and U.S. Army Management Staff College, which oversees CES, benefit all involved. CES plays a critical role in career development at every level. All eight courses are in demand because they are prerequisites for admission into other military schools and directly impact a civilian employee’s career progression.
“The Civilian Education System is increasingly important to employees for career progression and entrance into senior leader schools,” said Smith. “It’s also a chance to work cooperatively with people from a variety of backgrounds, meeting people you might rarely have the chance to and applying team building skills to multiple scenarios.”
CES courses include online modules followed by classroom instruction. Until establishing the new mobile training teams, classroom time meant temporary duty at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Each course, ranging from foundation level to advanced, is tailored to specific pay grades. Central funding and flexible course delivery methods, like the mobile training team, makes CES more accessible to local Army civilians, according to developers.
While IMCOM invited AMSC and offered to host the course, Smith included all Army commands here in the request for slots. U.S. Army Medical Command headquarters Workforce Development Specialist, Ray Mendoza stressed that a mobile training team teaching the course on-site saves money and increases the number of available training slots.
“By partnering with IMCOM, all local commands and Army civilians benefit,” Mendoza said. “This is a great opportunity for development and networking for civilians. It’s also a less expensive way to get 34 people trained all at once. MEDCOM is sending 16 people over for training – it would take several years to train 16 people, from the same installation, by sending them individually to Leavenworth.”
For employees like Anthony Riddick of IMCOM G-6, participation in training is possible because travel is no longer necessary.
“This works out really well for me,” Riddick said. “My wife is away right now and I’ve got two teenagers at home. I jumped at this opportunity.”
Other recent changes in the program pertain to equivalency credits and transferrable credit for graduate and undergraduate students. “Previously, students who had taken equivalent training had to navigate through Army Training Requirements and Resources System or the Civilian Human Resource Training Application System and request a review in order to receive credit for similar training and development,” said Smith.
The new equivalency process takes place automatically when students register, avoiding redundancy and ensuring each employee’s Army professional development growth is accurately documented. The credit is granted regardless of when the equivalent course was completed. The previous ten-year cap on equivalency training is now obsolete, Smith added.
For employees enrolled in accredited graduate and undergraduate programs, some colleges and universities accept CES courses as transfer credits, depending on school and program of study. Webster, Phoenix and DeVry universities are among those that award credit for CES, according Smith.
For more information about the latest CES courses, visit the course catalog on the Army Training Requirements and Resource system at www.atrrs.army.mil. Civilians wishing to register for courses or request more detailed information about credit equivalency and transfers should contact their local training representative.

Some goodies from Xmas. I had bought the Big Stopper in the summer and wasn't feeling up to getting out to shoot so I put the rest on the back burner. Well Xmas rolls around and Mom bought me the foundation kt and Lens Adapter. Now I just to get a few split grads down the road and I will be all set. Can't wait to be back to feeling 100% and shooting with these.
