  1. http://austintexas.gov/news/austin-water-issues-city-wide-boil-water-notice Austin)— Austin Water has issued a city-wide boil water notice for all customers of Austin Water. The notice is being issued as the utility works to stabilize the water treatment system. Historic flood waters flowing into our water supply lakes contain very high levels of silt that makes it challenging for the water plants to produce the volume of water needed to supply customers at this time. The high level of debris, silt and mud requires extended filtration that slows the process of getting treated water in to the system. To provide necessary water pressure for fire protection, plants must distribute water at treatment levels not typical of the utility’s high standards for consumption. To ensure that water is safe, customers are asked to boil water used for drinking, cooking or ice until further notice. It’s important to note that there have been no positive tests for bacterial infiltration of the system at this time. “Anyone who’s seen the water running through Ladybird Lake can see how muddy it is. The unprecedented rain and runoff through our entire lake system has simply overwhelmed our treatment capacity,” said Austin Mayor Steve Adler. “The good thing is that we can continue with most of our daily routines – like showering, hand washing and laundry – but we all need to do our part to conserve where we can, and boil the tap water we consume. We’re working with our partners in the school systems, health care, food service and neighboring cities to make sure we’re all working together.” What can customers do? Reduce water use as much as possible to ensure adequate supply is available for basic needs, fire protection, public health and safety. Boil water intended for consumption. To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking and for making ice should be boiled and cooled prior to consumption. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil for three minutes. In lieu of boiling water, you may use bottled water. Businesses should not use drinking fountains or soda fountains that rely on tap water. The boil water notice will be lifted once Austin Water can stabilize the treatment systems. Austin Water will notify residents when the water is safe for consumption and it is no longer necessary to boil the water. City of Austin and Austin Water are working in coordination with public health and safety partners in the region to keep the public informed. For more information, boil water notice updates (updates will be posted daily by 4 p.m.) and frequently asked questions about boil water notices visit http://www.austintexas.gov/boilH2O.

  2. I was diagnosed with psoriasis in my 30’s and they told me I’d most likely get psoriatic arthritis as I get older. It’s been 10+ years and I’m beginning to get the occasional numbness in my fingers. I’m just waiting for it to get worse because I’m not sure anything can be done. Sucks.
  3. Headed to the MIL ‘s house in Hudson Bend to start packing up. She says the yacht club pool and playground is under water. She thinks her house is good up to 710’ but doesn’t seem positive.

  7. Is the land and climate out in West Texas ideal for growing hemp? My family has a long history of farming cotton out there and we have an Uncle who says converting to hemp (once legal) will be the play.

  14. I’m assume it’s been covered, but the hand over the mouth detail is what propelled this to what it’s become. If she doesn’t include that, it was just a teen drunk making a move and not a sexual assault.
  15. What are the current betting odds on his confirmation? Any easy to use online books recommended?

  19. I don’t know that it was proven he fled. I thought he routinely had business travel to Taiwan. He just happened to be there when the victim’s friend alerted him. I can’t understand why the friend had his number. Was he hanging with her whole crew? Definitely more to the story..

    The old Goodnight location is becoming a High 5. I’ve never been to one the one in Lakeway, but I’m glad to see something fill that space.
