|The South Marysburgh Mirror 19} New Stream Gauge - Continued from page 1 Skootamatta River at Highway 7, on the Salmon River near Shannonville, on the Salmon River at Tamworth, on the Napanee River at Camden East, on the Clare River just upstream from Stoco Lake, on Consecon Creek at Allisonville and on Depot Creek just below the Bellrock Dam. A four-way partnership between Quinte Conser- vation, Environment Canada, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) and Water Survey of Canada made the installation of the newest stream gauge possi- ble. This is the first time a flow measuring station has been on the Black River; there are no records of stream flows on this site before. Beside the new gauge, Quinte Conservation monitors ground water levels in a well that will assist the agency in understanding rainfall and runoff with ground water resources. uinte C isa ity-based envi- ronmental protection agency. It serves 18 municipalities in the watersheds of the Moira, Napanee and Salmon Rivers, and Prince Edward County.

So what exactly i is a podcast? "Basically, a podcast is an MP3 audio file that you can download on your computer from a website", Ed- wards explains. "The file may contain music or people talking or both. The Prince Edward County Podcast will sound kind of like a radio program, except that you can listen to it whenever and wherever you choose. You can listen to the podcast right at your com- puter or transfer the MP3 file to an iPod or any other portable MP3 player. You can even bum it to a CD and play it in your car. "The whole idea is that, unlike conventional radio, you get to listen to it when it's most convenient for you," Edwards says. "If you're an insomniac and want something to listen to at 3 o'clock in the morning, the same great programming will be there." So far, the County podcast features segments from local musicians, information about new County ven- tures and even an interview with Christine Renaud of Express Magazine, who is more often on the other side of the question. Some of the segments are augmented with a County story or two from Kellough. There is even an opportunity for listeners to email in their com- ments, which will be posted on the site. "We're really hoping that the site appeals not only to County folks, but to those from "away" who want to keep current with the latest County developments," Kellough says. "It would also be great if people used it as a forum to express their opinions as well as com- ment on the content. It really has the potential to be a powerful communication tool." If you haven't surfed on over to the County Podcast yet, not to worry. All of the segments are ar- chived right on the site, so you can go back and see what you missed. So far Edwards and Kellough are crafting the County Podcast "just for the heck of it. We expect there will be sponsor interest in the future, but for now it's just r fun. Fun for the producers, fun for the listeners. If you haven't listened in yet, just go to www.countypodcasting.ca
