Program creates budget concerns for NCCS
Potential cuts in Newton-Conover City Schools is no longer a reality for teachers within the school system, but an after-school program has board members requesting a close watch on its expenses.
With the proposed 2010-11 budget being $29.4 million, Superintendent Dr. Barry Redmond told education board members during a work session Monday at the NCCS Central Office, the school system is in good shape.
"We are very healthy," Redmond said. "We are very, very frugal and manage our money very well."
The $29.4 million budget includes money from the state, local and federal governments, child nutrition department, Community Schools and the capital fund, according to NCCS Finance Director Carmen Houston and her assistant Keista Bass, who presented the education board with its local budget Monday.
At the board's June meeting, Redmond anticipated 12.5 positions to be cut in the upcoming school year because of state budget projections. No teacher positions were cut, but three teacher assistants were removed.
Two teacher assistants at South Newton Elementary School were traded in for a teacher position. The third teacher assistant position has not been filled. Also, a drama teacher took an English position at Newton-Conover High School.
On the other hand, Donna Schronce, a social studies teacher at NCHS, said she feels more teacher assistants are needed at the elementary schools. She also referenced class sizes at NCHS, where one teacher has 90 students divided into three blocks.
Redmond and Assistant Superintendent David Stegall said they are working on dividing the teacher's class sizes at the high school. Stegall also told Schronce to keep them informed if there are other areas they might be missing that are overloaded with students.
"We are thin, but our first goal is to (keep) our teachers," Redmond said.
Stegall shared with board members that two months ago, NCCS was interviewed by a consulting firm because it is one of 10 school systems its size in the state that is making progress in a tough economy.
"We are beating the odds," Stegall said.
However, despite its positive remarks, NCCS faces budget concerns with the Community Schools program. Redmond described its "biggest bubble (as) Community Schools."
Community Schools, which is a summer and after-school program for Catawba County children, anticipates an $80,000 decrease in its revenue from the 2009-10 budget year. The total revenue and expenditures for Community Schools this year is expected at $2.48 million. Last year, the program's revenue was $2.56 million.
Redmond told board members there is a decrease in enrollment because Catawba County parents have more options for after-school care and summer camps for children.
One area where Community Schools is suffering is in its costs.
Redmond said Community Schools Director Jim Sprinkle meets with Redmond on a monthly basis to give a report. Sprinkle then meets with the education board on a quarterly basis. In an effort to audit the program's costs efficiently, Redmond suggested Sprinkle give a monthly report to the board.
"We should've cut (costs) sooner," Redmond said. "Instead of buying 80-cent snacks, we should go to 40-cent snacks. The issue is we aren't staying on top of the tide fast enough. We are the little guy managing the large facilities."
Of the Community Schools projected budget, it plans to use $60,000 for snacks, $232,544 for office staff and $1 million for staff at its sites, to name a few budgeted items.
Because Community Schools is a program that will not be stopped, Redmond fears having to bail the program out if its revenue doesn't cover its costs.
"We have to be efficient in our staffing and wise in the way we purchase snacks, materials, equipment, etc.," Redmond said.
The Board of Education will vote on the 2010-11 budget at its scheduled board meeting at 7 p.m. Sept. 27 in the conference room at NCCS Central Office. The meeting is open to the public.

Chelsea's Gary Cahill says captain John Terry was right to criticise their form
Gary Cahill insists that captain John Terry was right to highlight Chelsea's poor run of form in recent weeks.
Last Updated: 07/12/12 9:09am
Terry has been missing since early last month with a knee injury, in which time new boss Rafa Benitez has taken charge, but they have won just once in seven games, the midweek victory over FC Nordsjaelland.
Blues skipper Terry had used his programme notes for Wednesday night's UEFA Champions League game to brand results during his injury absence as "simply not good enough", demanding more "fight and desire" from his team-mates.
And Cahill acknowledged the public dressing downs were warranted.
"If there's a time where it needs to be done then, sure, it's a positive, as long as it's taken in the right way," the England defender said.
"You have to dig in as a group. That's the only way you can go forward."
Cahill declined to reveal whether Terry had repeated the sentiments expressed in his programme notes to the players but added: "We've had meetings before at the club, definitely.
"When we need them, we've had them and they stay within the club. It's right that the players are upset. They don't expect to lose games.
"They expect to win the majority of games you go out and play. It's not been happening so it's going to be upsetting players and everyone involved.
"I don't know what's gone wrong - that's the honest answer. It's the same group of players. The players have been asking that question themselves and we don't know really.
"Where do you point the finger? It's obviously stuff you need to work on in the training ground. It's the same group of players who started the season beating teams and scoring goals and keeping clean sheets.
"There's no reason why we can't get back to that but we were hoping it would come sooner. We've been waiting for that win."
Chelsea are already 10 points adrift of leaders Manchester United and Cahill added: "We can't afford to slip up many more points in the Premier League. We need to get back to the form we had at the start of the season."

Here's the unedited version of what will appear in the "Morning Report" section of tomorrow's paper. A longer version, with reactions from locals, will run Friday. (We couldn't get a full story into tomorrow's paper due to early deadlines.)
The Niles post office branch will remain in business, U.S. Postal Service representatives announced Wednesday evening, to the relief of local residents who had campaigned for months to keep the Fremont branch open.
About 150 local residents gathered at Niles Elementary School to hear postal officials say that the approximately 7,000 letters they had written made an impact.
"When we looked at (the response), we just had to make a decision: We cannot close the Niles post office," said Kim Fernandez, manager of the Bay Valley District, which oversees post offices from Napa south to King City, excluding San Francisco and San Mateo counties.
Fernandez said the district received more letters from Niles residents than any of the other five post offices that were under threat of closure.
As soon as Fernandez announced that the Niles branch would remain open, audience members erupted into cheers and a standing ovation.

WALNUT — The Walnut Village Board nominated and approved a new acting village president at its meeting Monday.
Village Attorney Rob LeSage outlined to the trustees the options available to them regarding the appointment of an acting board president and the options available to someone being nominated and accepting the position.
The acting president will serve until the next general election to be held in two years. If no member of the board of trustees agrees to serve as the acting president, the board can look outside of its own members to select an acting village president. If a member of the board is chosen to serve as the acting president, that individual has two options. The first option is to resign their seat as a trustee and assume all the powers of the president. The most significant of those powers would be the power of veto. The second option is for the newly-elected acting president to retain his or her position as a trustee. Retaining the trustee position would not allow the acting president to break tie votes or to veto decisions made by the board.
After having heard the explanations given by the LeSage, Dennis Grobe was nominated and elected to the president's position. Grobe accepted the new position and decided to retain his position as a trustee, retaining his voting power as a trustee.
In additional administrative business, it was explained by LeSage, the acting village president is required, within 60 days, to nominate a candidate to fill the vacancy created by the recent resignation of one of the elected trustees. The attorney suggested Grobe should nominate a candidate at the May 20 meeting. For approval, the nominated candidate will need to receive a majority of the voteds from the trustees present.
In other business:
• The Walnut Police Chief reported during the month of April, his department received 19 calls; no criminal arrests were made as a result of those calls. His department also made four speeding stops and issued written warnings in each of those incidents.
• Superintendent Carl Minks brought to the board information about the cost of replacing the current backhoe owned by the village. Minks has learned, because of government discounts of 20 percent, it may be more reasonable to purchase a new backhoe rather than a used piece of equipment. The cost of a new backhoe would be more than $60,000.
Trustee Aaron Staker questioned what the problems were with the current backhoe. Minks said there were numerous items that needed to be prepared. Staker proposed Minks ascertain the cost of such repairs and present that information to the board before a decision is made regarding purchasing a new backhoe. This was agreed on by the board, and Minks was charged with the task of getting estimates for backhoe repairs.
• After discussion with Minks, the village put up for sale the sewer jetter that is currently owned by the village. The decision was made to put the jetter out for sealed bids with a minimum bid to be agreed upon prior to advertising.
• The village clerk reminded the board there is a need to fill open positions on both the zoning and planning boards. The board acknowledged this need and will work to fill these vacancies.
The next village board meeting is set for May 20.

December 31, 2013 > Social Security: Questions and Answers
Question:I got an email that says itÕs from Social Security, but IÕm not so sure. They want me to reply with my Social Security number, date of birth, and motherÕs maiden name for Òverification.Ó Did it really come from Social Security?Answer:No. Social Security will not send you an email asking you to share your personal information, such as your Social Security number, date of birth, or other private information. Beware of such scams Ñ theyÕre after your information so they can use it for their own benefit. When in doubt, or if you have any questions about correspondence you receive from Social Security, contact your local Social Security office or call us at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to see whether we really need any information from you. Question:I run a small business and I am hiring a few employees. How can I recognize a valid Social Security card?Answer: There are more than 50 different versions of the Social Security card, all of which are valid. Although there are several versions of the card in circulation, all prior versions of the card are valid. The number is what is most important. The best way for you and other employers to verify a name and Social Security number is to use the free Social Security Number Verification Service (SSNVS). Once you register for Business Services Online at www.socialsecurity.gov/bso, you can start using SSNVS. SSNVS allows you to quickly verify whether a person's name and number match Social Security's records.Question:What benefit amounts may a spouse be entitled?Answer: A spouse receives one-half of the retired worker's full benefit if the spouse retires at full retirement age. If the spouse begins collecting benefits before full retirement age, we reduce those benefits by a percentage based on how much earlier the spouse retires. However, if a spouse is taking care of a child who is either under age 16 or disabled and receiving Social Security benefits, a spouse gets full (one-half) benefits, regardless of age. If you are eligible for both your own retirement benefit and for benefits as a spouse, we always pay your own benefit first. If your benefit as a spouse is higher than your retirement benefit, you'll receive a combination of benefits equaling the higher spouse's benefit. Learn more at www.socialsecurity.gov.Question:My wife and I plan on visiting the grandchildren over the winter, during which time my wife will turn 62. Can she apply for retirement benefits in another state, or do we have to wait until we get back home to apply for retirement at our local Social Security office? Answer: These days, you donÕt have to be near a Social Security office to apply for benefits. Regardless of where you and your wife are living or traveling, you can apply for retirement benefits online at www.socialsecurity.gov/applyonline. ItÕs so easy to do, and it can take as little as 15 minutes to complete and submit the application. In most cases, once you submit your application electronically, youÕre done. You can go back to enjoying your grandchildren.

SPRINGFIELD – The group that wants to take legislative redistricting powers away from Illinois lawmakers said it has almost twice the signatures needed to let voters decide the issue in November.
A non-partisan group called "Yes for Independent Maps submitted 532,000 signatures to the Illinois State Board of Elections in Springfield on Thursday. The measure would create an independent commission to draw a new political map for the legislature every decade.
Supporters said lawmakers use the process to hurt political foes and limit voter choice in elections.
Chicago Democrat and House Speaker Michael Madigan criticized the proposal as a power grab by Republicans.
A lawsuit filed Tuesday by a Democratic party attorney argues the measure goes beyond the constitutional limits of a voter initiative amendment.

An open letter to the president:
In the next four years you can truly make a name for yourself in history. You do not have to worry about offending potential campaign supporters, fellow Democrats or Republicans. You can take steps to support actions to correct what we see as problems.
As a nation we are bankrupt and can't help our own seniors, veterans, orphans and homeless. Yet in the last few years this country has provided aid to Haiti, Chile, Pakistan, Libya, Egypt, Turkey and Japan with billions of dollars. We cannot find illegal immigrants for legal action but we can find them benefits.
Some retired seniors are going without medications and some in Congress feel that we seniors are greedy, so the cost of Medicare continues to increase. Hundreds of American orphans are pushed aside to make room for foreign orphans.
I want everyone who wants to become an American to have the chance to do so, but enter through the "front door," the way my grandparents did.
I would like to see a law that prevents U.S. aid to any country if we are in debt, unless it is an issue of national security.
Remember the old saying, "charity begins at home."

Is there any place on the site for emulators? If so, where should these be posted?
I'm talking about programs like:
etc. etc.
No, there is no place at the moment, but there could be, if you take the responsibility ;)
things to consider:
- what information is useful?
- is there another site that takes care of emulators for linux?
- lgdb.org is not about emulated games so they will not be listed, but i think the emulator site usually takes care of that anyway (e.g.: http://www.scummvm.org/compatibility/)
i personally have very very little knowledge about emulators, so if you already have some design design ideas you are more than welcome to realize them.
Well, for me the lgdb is an excellent place to check out games for linux. Because not many games are written for linux, emulation is an option to play those. I agree that non-linux games should not be listed here. But some pages with some options to play non linux games under linux would be nice. I can make some pages, but I'm not sure where to put them. The tools section would be the most appropriate, but I guess nobody looks there :)
Ok 4no1,
You can now checkout the all new emulator-entry-creation, just go to "Create content" let me know what is missing and how to organize / differentiate between the different emulators.
actually that would be a good place to have a wine entry too, but its listed under tools cause "wine is not an emulator" ;)

MITCH Rinos more than gets a kick out of soccer: it's been his life's passion.
Or was.
The Argentinian was one of the wave of overseas players who came to Australia in the 60s.
He was a contemporary of great names like Johnny Warren and Johnny Watkiss at Canterbury; of great imports like Rafael Campana, Johnny Giacometti and Raoul Blanco.
Rinos scored 16 goals in 12 matches for Marconi in 1969, a season culminating in a premiership.
Then he gave it away, had no contact with football for 40 years.
"Johnny Warren would say to me: 'Why don't you coach?'," he said.
"Parents would say 'Why don't you teach the kids'?"
And in 2010 he did start teaching.
"I changed my mind," he said.
Why? Ask the question, and that's when the passion returns.
"Soccer has gone backwards, it's just kick and run, there's no skill," he said of the Socceroos.
He invoked the names of Maradona, Pele and Messi to illustrate how skills take precedence in early South American football education.
"The standards are very, very poor," he said of coaching Australian juniors.
"I have a desire to to teach properly."
So now he's teaching 11 kids at Adam Park, Smithfield, and those kids get a shock when they see pictures of their now-elderly mentor with the likes of Maradona.
If there are other parents with questions they can contact Mitch 0419 445 315.

Canadian schools face challenges with healthy meals too
Some high schools in Windsor-Essex have seen a "significant decline" in the number of students eating at school cafeterias since last September.
That's according to Jeff Hillman, the superintendent of education with the public school board, who spoke to CBC Windsor's Tony Doucette on the Early Shift on Monday.
The decline is related to new provincial rules that require healthier foods to be served at schools.

Students broke bread together at HRVHS just before the Thanksgiving break, but it had nothing to do with pilgrims.
They literally broke bread, passing around baguettes sold as a fundraiser, and then adding cheeses, jams and other condiments to the quintessential long loaf French bread.
The occasion was part of French Week, celebrated by the HRVHS French Club and friends.
The students ate baguettes with brie and listened to classic French music, under the tutelage of French teacher Jennifer Stevens.
Every year the French club thinks of creative activities to celebrate French Week, but dressing up each day is always essential. Some of the dress-up days this year included scarf day, barrette day, blue white and red day, and famous French person day.
"Vive la France," said senior Myrna Najera, who has saved up for four years for this spring's French Club trip to Normandy and other points in France.
"It's something I'm really looking forward to," said Najera, the French Club president.
Students at Hood River Valley High School are required to take two years of a foreign language in order to graduate; classes offered include Mandarin, French and Spanish.
"I think this whole week was about more than the language," said Maddy Graham, French Club vice president. "Culture is a big part of what we learn; not just grammar but the way they speak in other areas."
Students became familiar with French Impressionist artists, with a focus this year on Vincent van Gogh (who worked mostly in France) and they got the opportunity to create their own rendition of famous Impressionist works.
A special event also took place on Nov. 18, something French Club had never done before. After school, students, local Francophiles and teachers went down to Andrew's Skylight Theatre to view the French film "Romantics Anonymous."
"It was the perfect way to finish a very French day," said Graham. "The movie was an awkward romantic comedy which everyone enjoyed, even if some of the viewers didn't speak French."

BOSTON, MA-The FBI is asking the public for help in finding two men wanted in connection with Monday's bombings at the Boston Marathon.
They are known as "suspect #1," seen wearing a black baseball cap, and "suspect #2" wearing a white one, turned backwards. The two men are seen carrying backpacks through the crowd at the Boston Marathon, just minutes before the bombs went off. They say suspect two set down a backpack at the second bombing site.
The FBI hopes someone will recognize them.
"Thought it may be difficult, the nation is counting on those with information to come forward and provide it to us," said FBI Special Agent, Richard DesLauriers.

Meridian, Mississippi Dozens were on hand at Meridian High School as interim State Superintendent Dr. Lynn House addressed a number of educational concerns in Mississippi, including the implementation of the common core state standards, as well as career and college readiness. It is all designed to make for a better and brighter society.
"This just doesn't effect Meridian," MPSD Superintendent Dr. Alvin Taylor. "It actually effects the whole country because the vast majority of states in the United States will be moving to common core."
"Well, we all need to have an understanding of what we're faced with," LCSD Superintendent Dr. Randy Hodges. "A clear understanding."
Local superintendents tell Newscenter 11 the Common Core State Standards will benefit education in Mississippi greatly because under the new plan, students in Mississippi will be taking the same exams as students in other states where Common Core is used, allowing for academic competition beyond the magnolia state.
"But now, we'll be looking not only at 46 other states, but globally," Hodges points out. "So, we'll see how our students will do compared to other states. I think we'll do extremely well."
"We're working very hard this year on increasing our rigor and protecting instructional time," Taylor explains. "Looking in our classrooms and seeing how effective we are at using instructional time."
Educational leaders say that taking time to discuss educational opportunities beyond high school is critical in order to be prepared for new jobs that will be created in the future. School districts say they are already taking steps to get students thinking about careers through small learning communities centered around specific professions. One thing everyone agrees on parents and students need to be well informed.
"We do a lot of in depth training with parents and community members to help them have an informed voice at the decision making table," according to Becky Glover with Parents for Public Schools.
Newscenter 11 attempted to interview House on Wednesday evening. However, she declined because she was losing her voice. For more on the Common Core State Standards, you can visit www.corestandards.org.

Submission + - Australian police warn that Apple Maps could get someone killed (abc.net.au)
jsherring writes: "Police in Victoria, Australia warn that Apple's glitch-filled Maps app could get someone killed, after motorists looking for the Victorian city of Mildura were instead guided to a wilderness area." Relying on Apple Maps to navigate through rural Australia seems rather foolish but it has become common practice to rely on GPS navigation. Besides reverting to google maps, perhaps Apple should provide strong warnings to use other navigation sources if navigating to remote locations.

RV storage at fairgrounds popular
BLACKFOOT — During the winter, the Eastern Idaho State Fairgrounds (EISF) has over 100,000 square feet of indoor storage for vehicles or recreational vehicles.
Included in this list are performance cars, trailers, boats, vans, motor homes, fifth- wheelers, Skidoos and/or "any recreational vehicle you can bring in on a trailer," said Stan Osburn who is part of the EISF maintenance crew.
Storage space is limited and is on a first-come-first-serve basis. Storage will be taken from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. to 12 noon on Saturday.
The one-time charge is $6 per linear foot (measured from the tongue of the vehicle to the end of it) for the entire six months of storage.
Stored vehicles will be released the second week of April.
Allen Jorgensen from Idaho Falls was registering his trailer for storage on Monday.
"It's the best place in town," he said. "[the fee] also gives the fairgrounds something to build on for maintenance on the grounds."
People bring their vehicles from all over—St. Anthony, Jackson, Wyo.; Pocatello and Utah, said maintenance crew member Sandy Young.
This is the second year Jeff Stines from Jackson, Wyo., has stored his trailer at the fairgrounds.
"It's a great deal," he said. "The cost is unbelievable. My trailer is out of the sun and snow and, hopefully, this will extend the life of my trailer."
Speaking of the boats waiting behind him, Stines said, "I passed all these guys on the interstate so I knew there would be a line."

My name is Julie Riker Dant and I live in the small town of Washington, in southwestern Indiana, in the United States. In the mid to late 90's, I began searching out and documenting with black and white photographs, old abandoned houses all over Indiana, the Midwest, Southeast and Deep South, with the intention of publishing a pictorial book one day. The book has not come to pass as of yet, however I have produced a video in which all of my Indiana houses are featured accompanied by beautiful Celtic music. It is entitled SOLEMN RELICS. In the process of searching out the old houses on...

Ask Chicago guitar legend Buddy Guy about the future of the blues and he'll give a depressing -- but direct -- answer.
"It's scary," Guy said during an interview upstairs at his club, Buddy Guy's Legends, in Chicago's South Loop. "I'm still going to play my music because I love what I'm doing, but we need all the support we can to keep the blues alive."
After five decades in the business, Guy is doing what he can to make sure the genre -- and his late contemporaries like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and Junior Wells -- lives on. Earlier this year Guy wrote his autobiography, "When I Left Home," and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member is mentoring Massachusetts eighth-grader and blues guitarist Quinn Sullivan.
And Guy will likely garner attention in December when he receives a 2012 Kennedy Center Honor.
"He has expressed his fear that it may be all lost after he's gone," said Janice Monti, a sociology professor at Dominican University who studies blues music. "I think as he's gotten older he's incredibly aware of this mandate he received from Muddy and the Wolf to keep this all going."
Guy says blues music is ignored in an entertainment marketplace obsessed with young artists.
"It's a tough time for blues because if it was being played, other than satellite radio, on the peak hours, prime time, then somebody would know about it," Guy said.
That's one of the reasons the 76-year-old Guy took on mentoring 13-year-old Sullivan, who he said plays "as well as Eric Clapton, me and B.B. King. How do you learn that at that age? That's a natural." Guy has Sullivan open for him on tour and record on his label.
"If you don't have role models, the young people now will not learn how to play," Guy said.
The relationship is a boon for Sullivan, who said he most enjoys trading guitar licks with Guy.
"I have a smile on my face every time I'm in his presence," Sullivan said. "He's a living legend. I couldn't ask for more. It's just a great thing that he's helping me with my career."
In Chicago, Guy found work driving a tow truck during the day and playing blues clubs at night. Guy eventually earned a spot as a regular session musician at the city's famed Chess Records and found a mentor in blues musician and producer Willie Dixon. Guy formed a band with Junior Wells and played with The Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead.
Guy developed his own recording career later, with music like the 1991 best-selling record, "Damn Right, I've Got the Blues."
Spreading the news of the blues was another reason Guy decided to team with author David Ritz to write his autobiography.
"I just want a true story about some of the great people who didn't write a book and left me with this history of information," Guy said.
The book details his childhood in Louisiana, his move to Chicago 55 years ago and his music career. He said he considers his performance for President Barack Obama at the White House in February with Stones singer Mick Jagger to be the professional pinnacle of his career. Guy successfully prodded the president to sing a few lines of "Sweet Home Chicago."
"To say you played the blues with the president sitting there smiling, that's one you can't forget," Guy said.
Besides the hall of fame, Guy earned many accolades later in his career: a half-dozen Grammy Awards, Billboard magazine's Century Award and the Blues Foundation's Keeping the Blues Alive Award. When he turned 75 in 2011, the city of Chicago renamed the stretch of Wabash Street in front of his club "Buddy Guy Way."
But it still weighs heavy on Guy that his contemporaries aren't around to be honored as well.
"Every time I'm interviewed I give credit to those people, but they should have got all the awards that I got and they didn't get them because the blues wasn't exposed and they were some unknowns," Guy said.
It could also explain why Guy still tours, playing internationally and as many as 16 shows a month.
"I don't know nothing else to do now," Guy said. "I'm enjoying it. I get tired, but you get tired if you're working in the steel mills, so what's to complain?"

Submission + - Physicists Discover a Way Around Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle
Hugh Pickens writes writes: "Science Daily Headlines reports that researchers have applied a recently developed technique to directly measure the polarization states of light overcoming some important challenges of Heisenberg's famous Uncertainty Principle and demonstrating that it is possible to measure key related variables, known as "conjugate" variables, of a quantum particle or state directly. Such direct measurements of the wavefunction had long seemed impossible because of a key tenet of the uncertainty principle — the idea that certain properties of a quantum system could be known only poorly if certain other related properties were known with precision. "The reason it wasn't thought possible to measure two conjugate variables directly was because measuring one would destroy the wavefunction before the other one could be measured," says co-author Jonathan Leach. The direct measurement technique employs a "trick" to measure the first property in such a way that the system is not disturbed significantly and information about the second property can still be obtained. This careful measurement relies on the "weak measurement" of the first property followed by a "strong measurement" of the second property. First described 25 years ago, weak measurement requires that the coupling between the system and what is used to measure it be, as its name suggests, "weak," which means that the system is barely disturbed in the measurement process. The downside of this type of measurement is that a single measurement only provides a small amount of information, and to get an accurate readout, the process has to be repeated multiple times and the average taken. Researchers passed polarized light through two crystals of differing thicknesses: the first, a very thin crystal that "weakly" measures the horizontal and vertical polarization state; the second, a much thicker crystal that "strongly" measures the diagonal and anti-diagonal polarization state. As the first measurement was performed weakly, the system is not significantly disturbed, and therefore, information gained from the second measurement was still valid. This process is repeated several times to build up accurate statistics. Putting all of this together gives a full, direct characterization of the polarization states of the light."

Unisys is extending its "Stealth" solution suite of cybersecurity software through a new channel program, essentially moving the Pennsylvania-based company from a partner mode to a vendor mode.
The announcement is being formalized at this week's Interop in Las Vegas.
Under the new channel initiative, resellers will be able to market the Unisys Stealth security innovations to industry segments targeted for cyber attacks such as financial, healthcare, telecommunications, and legal services as well as federal, state and local government agencies.
"Cyber security continues to be a disruptive trend," said Steve Vinsik, VP and partner, Global Security Solutions at Unisys. "The network is a hostile environment, and customers are looking for embedded security. We want to drive the security capability into those vertical industries and solutions in order to make it easy to integrate security into an otherwise non-secure offering."
In essence, Stealth is an AES-256 encryption protocol with management capabilities, positioned between layers two and three of the OSI stack. The product's cryptographic engine is FIPS 140-2 certified through the use of SecureParser, made by Security First Corporation. Rights are established through "communities of interest" that can access given categories of data, as defined by the company. This process is designed for ease-of-use, potentially by non-experts, and is managed through Active Directory or LDAP.
"You don't need different people to handle VLAN segmentation and separate firewall rules, for example," Vinsik added. "You don't need that kind of expertise on hand to be able to do that in a fast and real-time basis. If they are part of the community of interest, they have access to that particular data regardless of where they are on the network."
Unisys first developed Stealth about five years ago, in response to the security needs of the federal government, most notably, the Department of Defense. At the time, the DoD was looking for ways to collapse three separate physical infrastructures into a single infrastructure that could securely accommodate multiple levels of classified data. The product is certified by the National Security Agency to carry secret data across an unclassified network, according to Vinsik.

Group Focuses on Relatives of HIV-Positive People
January 8, 2010
Adapted from:
Since 1985, an Illinois nonprofit has helped those with HIV by supporting their loved ones with a broad range of legal and psychosocial services. With a focus on the unique needs of parents and children, Families' and Children's AIDS Network (FCAN) offers Cook County residents service programs, education, and advocacy.
Retreats are at the core of the FCAN's mission. Families meet twice a year (teens, annually) to learn about HIV and HIV advocacy.
In the arena of policy reform, FCAN contributed to the development of legislation that allows families to plan for the time when they are unable to provide personal care. An adoption law also anticipates declining health among family members and provides for legal options in that situation.
FCAN spreads the word about HIV through educational programs, individual counseling, family meetings, and peer outreach. In 2008, FCAN's efforts in HIV education garnered the Illinois Department of Public Health's "In Our Own Backyard" award.

I Need A Drink
My colleague on a health sabbatical missed an exciting faculty meeting today. I'll just have to right about it to keep him posted.
My huge school is on a 12 period day and because of the different time schedules of so many teachers, Suit is forced to hold conferences multiple periods. Some teachers luck out and get to go to a conference during a lunch or a prep so they don't have to stay extra. I'm not that lucky. I'm stuck staying the extra period at the end of the day. Of course, listening to Suit and then going to teach is no bargain either. He would not stop talking during the period four meeting and refused to let teachers leave at the end of the period. The teacher who comes into the room after me was really late to class. She has a difficult class and is always after them to be on time. Coming late herself set a bad example. When she finally arrived, she was really upset. The kids gave her a hard time about being late too. She told him "Principal Suit was holding a meeting and he would not let us leave." The same thing happened at a meeting I was at a few years ago. The only difference was that I got up five minutes before the end of the meeting and walked out. When Suit complained I told him "I have a class in the trailer. I'm not going to be late." He didn't like my answer but he knows that I am made of Teflon and he can do nothing to me. Others are not in that position and must take his abuse.
The meeting I went to began with a lecture about using the new call sub station and EGS (electronic grading system). We were told that computers would be available in the school but we would be much better off working at home in our pajamas. I vote for not working in school in my pajamas. We then listened to the AP of security. This guy looks just like Terence of South Park (big mouth, nothing intelligent ever coming out of it). He was telling us how effective the school was going to be in dealing with lateness. He plans on having his C-6 hall patrol people doing sweeps. Too bad my colleague isn't in school this semester. If he had a hall patrol, I know how much he would love the sweeps. I don't think anyone in the room thought this plan would work. But Terence sure had a good time standing in front and talking. Next to speak was Suit himself. First he talked about our Quality Review and patted himself and the staff on the back. The stupid teachers actually applauded. He talked about differentiated instruction. He wants us to talk to every student individually. He wants us to speak to special education teachers and ELL teachers to find books that are easier for some students to use. All this with 5 classes and a C-6 assignment. I think the guy is on drugs. He then talked about the biggest problem in our school--Black males not getting advanced and honor diplomas. He's finally woken up. I've said for years that this group is not being cared for. I've said for years that this group faces major discrimination. No one listened. Now that the school is faced with the group bringing down the stats, he wants to address the problem. He said a bunch of racist stuff, stuff he claimed was based on facts. After teaching six classes and a C-6 assignment, I didn't have the energy to challenge him. I just watched the clock and made sure to leave when the period was up. I did take a cell phone call in the middle of the meeting. I hope it got on him nerves. As people were leaving he mentioned our next PD would be in January. I definitely feel a severe headache coming on.

I thought the Terrence and Philip show was one of the cutest features of South Park. So are Principal Suit and AP Security playing the revival?
What clever little administrators they are!! And so in touch with the needs of the students!! Notice how young black males were ignored and marginalized until now! That proves that no one was listening to teachers or REAL educators for years and years. It took this evil regime's obsession with data to wake up administrators who smell more cash if young black men were more successful academically. Where were Terrence and Philip prior to their cash bonuses?

When I read your postings I swear we are working in the same building! Oh ,I forgot you are in The Plaza Suite, the trailer. How is the heat going? I am in the same boat. I am supposed to hunt down non- existent low level high interest books for our ELL's . TALK about trying to find a needle in a hay stack. I reminded my suit ( hate to call her that because her suits look like bad slip covers. In fact my Salvation army outfits look better than hers)that I personally leveled all books . Those teachers that have a small collection are unwilling to share. They hold onto them like they are a life raft. really can't blame the ones that use them. The turn over in my school is so huge that many of the books seem to disappear into thin air.Then we have the teachers who have many , many books for show purposes. They don't take the time to read them! They look good on the shelve collecting dust. It's a mad, mad world in the DOE!!

I'll try to keep this short since my team will be of absolutely no interest to anyone!
So I'm twenty-six years old and my team are Greenock Morton. Morton were last in the Scottish Premier Division in 1988 which made me one at the time and so to all intents and purposes I've never been cognisant of them ever being in the top tier (or anything other than in the doldrums to be honest).
However at the time of writing we are currently top of the First Division with eight games to play having not been in a comparable position since 1996! So it's exciting times at the moment as you can imagine.
Now I know this is well of the beaten track in terms of interest and glamour to casual fans so I'm sorry if this is boring to anyone, however I am sure as fellow football fans you can empathise with the nerves and anxiety and excitement I'm going through at the moment as my club try to achieve something I've never seen nor thought would ever happen to us.
There is a caveat though which is making this season all the more pressurised. Finances are so tight and crowds so sparse in Scottish football at present that we will be going part-time next season unless some great cash injection comes in to the club. Being out of both cup competitions basically means we need to win this division and promotion the the Premier League or else we will go part-time and never be able to do it again.
So it's all or nothing and it's been incredibly exciting and panic-strewn throughout. If anyone is interested the table stands as such:
We have been in an epic battle with Partick Thistle all season and we're down to the final furlong now. Though we're top and have been for a long time now, Thistle have the games in hand. However, due to continued bad weather all winter, they've had these fixtures continually postponed. Something like ten times IIRC. This is a list of our remaining fixtures:
In spite of Scotland playing a World Cup qualifier tonight, we do play tomorrow afternoon at home in a game we simply must win. I'll be there and am already nervous as hell however it's much better this than fighting relegation from the division I suppose.
This has dragged on much longer than I hoped so I apologise but I hope even one or two of you had a passing interest. Sure, we're hardly at the pinnacle of world football but it's a nice story and obviously one of deep personal emotion to me. I will keep you all posted and wish us luck!
I'm just home from the game today and I'm absolutely freezing but ecstatic!
We've been battered with snow and the temperature at kick off was 1°. The gale force winds made it feel like -10° or something.
At half-time I was debating whether or not to leave and the weather wasn't the only reason for that. We didn't even have a shot at goal in the first half, we were losing 0-2 and our rivals for the title, Partick Thistle were leading 4-0. Basically our hopes for the league were gone realistically at that point.
But not for the first time this season an almighty come back in the second half with four goals in twenty minutes won the day! Though they went on to win their game 6-1, I would think Thistle fans will be the more disappointed as we were dead and buried at half time and they had one hand on the championship.
We live to fight another week!
Just a soccer fan in general and try to watch as many big European games as possible but root for Man City and AC Milan in Italy
Balotelli is unreal right now, anyone see his goal against Brazil for the Italian national team the other day?
Balotelli and El Shaarawy....maybe Niang will be a great young attack for years to come for Milan

On Slavery – 3
[This post continues the series On Slavery (1 here and 2 here).]
Kenneth Stampp in his book, The Peculiar Institution: Slavery in the Ante-Bellum South, suggests that some owners of slaves were conflicted about the need to apply punishment in the control of slaves and yet most felt fully justified in imposing that control. He sites on numerous occasions the willingness of owners to overlook the cruelty of overseers if they met or exceeded production goals. This head-in-the-sand approach to ethics undoubtedly had many causes but the most obvious was greed.
Owners also considered their slaves to have a "duty" to their master by virtue of the fact that they were, after all, his property and that the master provided and cared for them. But the most prevalent justification for imposing control on the slaves was to achieve maximum production from them as a labor force. Poor performers, for whatever reason, were seen as impacting the bottom-line.

The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress - Review by Kyle, Teen Blogger
Posted on 03-Feb-17 16:21
In The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, author Robert A. Heinlein gives a complex look at revolutionary ideals, their cost, and the reality of conflict between societies. Political ideas on these topics are presented and discussed often throughout the novel, but they are done so in such a way to make it interesting reading, even for those who may disagree. Its well-developed characters and comprehensively detailed setting make it a smart science-fiction tale, with impressively realistic sensibilities.

Kids of Appetite - Review by Becca, Teen Blogger
Posted on 03-Feb-17 15:18
Kids of Appetite, or They Lived and They Laughed and They Saw That It was Good, by David Arnold is a stand-alone novel worth reading by anyone and everyone. It's a dynamic and diverse read, written by an author with a clear skill for getting you inside the heads of his real-as-life characters. With both subtle and blatant messages woven throughout about growing up, acceptance, and the power of love, its relevance is clear. Though Kids of Appetite is meant for young adults, it is an novel to be thoroughly enjoyed by all.

SkewTransform.AngleYProperty Field
Identifies the AngleY dependency property.
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
This example shows one way to apply an animation to a property without using a Storyboard.
This functionality is not available in Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML). For information about animating a property in XAML, see How to: Animate a Property by Using a Storyboard.
To apply a local animation to a property, use the BeginAnimation method. This method takes two parameters: a DependencyProperty that specifies the property to animate, and the animation to apply to that property.
The following example shows how to animate the width and background color of a Button.
/* This sample demonstrates how to apply non-storyboard animations to a property. To animate in markup, you must use storyboards. */ using System; using System.Windows; using System.Windows.Navigation; using System.Windows.Media; using System.Windows.Media.Animation; using System.Windows.Shapes; using System.Windows.Controls; namespace Microsoft.Samples.Animation.LocalAnimations { // Create the demonstration. public class LocalAnimationExample : Page { public LocalAnimationExample() { WindowTitle = "Local Animation Example"; StackPanel myStackPanel = new StackPanel(); myStackPanel.Margin = new Thickness(20); // Create and set the Button. Button aButton = new Button(); aButton.Content = "A Button"; // Animate the Button's Width. DoubleAnimation myDoubleAnimation = new DoubleAnimation(); myDoubleAnimation.From = 75; myDoubleAnimation.To = 300; myDoubleAnimation.Duration = new Duration(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5)); myDoubleAnimation.AutoReverse = true; myDoubleAnimation.RepeatBehavior = RepeatBehavior.Forever; // Apply the animation to the button's Width property. aButton.BeginAnimation(Button.WidthProperty, myDoubleAnimation); // Create and animate a Brush to set the button's Background. SolidColorBrush myBrush = new SolidColorBrush(); myBrush.Color = Colors.Blue; ColorAnimation myColorAnimation = new ColorAnimation(); myColorAnimation.From = Colors.Blue; myColorAnimation.To = Colors.Red; myColorAnimation.Duration = new Duration(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(7000)); myColorAnimation.AutoReverse = true; myColorAnimation.RepeatBehavior = RepeatBehavior.Forever; // Apply the animation to the brush's Color property. myBrush.BeginAnimation(SolidColorBrush.ColorProperty, myColorAnimation); aButton.Background = myBrush; // Add the Button to the panel. myStackPanel.Children.Add(aButton); this.Content = myStackPanel; } } }
A variety of animation classes in the System.Windows.Media.Animation namespace exist for animating different types of properties. For more information about animating properties, see Animation Overview. For more information about dependency properties (the type of properties that are shown in these examples) and their features, see Dependency Properties Overview.
There are other ways to animate without using Storyboard objects; for more information, see Property Animation Techniques Overview.

Lowndes County Sheriff's Office Release
Around 3:30 on Tuesday afternoon, deputies and emergency medical personnel responded to a 9-1-1 call from a resident at Northwind Apartments, located at 5148 Northwind Boulevard, who indicated that a fourteen {14} month old child who had been injured.
Deputies and investigators began examining the scene and interviewing witnesses. It was learned that Justin Scott Hamilton, who resides in the complex, was inside his apartment with his firearm, semi-automatic .40 caliber handgun, and squeezed the trigger thinking that the handgun was unloaded.
The firearm discharged sending the projectile through Hamilton's apartment, out an exterior wall where it crossed the breezeway and entered the apartment of the child. The child was struck in the hand sustaining an injury. The mother of the child immediately exited the apartment and rushed the child to the hospital for treatment of the injury.
An off duty Valdosta Police officer, who lives in the complex, heard the commotion and went to the parking lot where he encountered Justin Hamilton. The officer stayed with Justin Hamilton until deputies arrived. Investigators worked the crime scene until approximately 7:30 last night and Justin Hamilton was taken to the Sheriff's Office and charged with reckless conduct and tampering with evidence, both of which are misdemeanor offenses. The tampering with evidence charge is the result of Hamilton moving the spent shell casing in an attempt to conceal it.
Justin Hamilton is currently an active duty member of the Air Force and investigators are working with agents from the Office of Special Investigations detachment at Moody Air Force Base.
Justin Hamilton will appear in the Lowndes County Magistrate Court this afternoon where a bond will be considered.

I been thinking about unlocking Cassipea, she was the first hero I played and I liked her. But being a noobie (and I still am ) I guess I didnt know how to make the best use of her.
How is she as a champion ? should I unlock her ? I was also looking at Kaw Maw (spelling) the one who shoots acid, plus didnt he get a buff this patch ?
not really sure who I guess O_O

Cassiopeia is a more potent bruiser with built-in mobility from her Q, and great zoning ability. Very hard to skill properly though, because you want her E pumped at LV9~12, but having it maxed by 9 means having a sucky Q during the laning phase, and she really needs that gold...
EDIT: Looks like Orianna will have some nifty tricks..."shielding allies with The Ball and using it as the focal point of your abilities", does this mean she can tag her pet on Amumu and unleash hell inside his ulti?

well I unlocked her and well. I guess shes too hard for me <.<
Played a game with people and before I new it I was 1/5/x (I actually somehow killed somone tho) Then went and played bots and well, kinda still sucked. I dont mind shes unique and challenging, its just I guess when I start dieng alot, my team will get angry and abusive (which I see all the time). Guess shes really too hard for a newbie like me to handle so far ^_^

Flash is also your opponent best friend then
Kog is easy to kill with his low hp & no escape. Well he have his E to slow but still.
I play him AS with Madred mix with Q. And then rush Frozen mallet for HP & slow , he really needs it.
AP is viable too , i like spamming his ult (with blue buff ofc )
Imo , Cass with her previous buff , she's a great caster. It requires more skills than the others caster like Vlad , Annie , Ryze.... so it's not surprising that she's hard to play.
Be aware that her ulti is better when you face to face the opponent
And for that you have to be close to them so a double-edge.
Max W if you want to harrass your opponent.
Max E if you want to play more aggressive & get a fast kill but it's a double-edge too , depends the champ you're facing.
If they have a jungler , it's better to last hit minions than using your W or Q. Just harrass & predict your opponent movement.
For Orianna , she's not a full support , more like a mi-support mi-AP. Her Passive suxx..
Waiting the spotlight.

Actually, I'm using smartcast a lot more now. It's really convenient. I have it on QWE for Lux, QW for Annie, and sometimes I'll even set it for melee champs with gap closers if I'm being really aggressive.
Also, new champ details and Xypherous is answering a lot of questions about her in General Discussion. Basically, I'm definitely buying her.

If I'm reading this right she's got an AoE knockup/fling that can be combined with an AoE slow/haste? Need to know more about her passive and how much it affects skill damage...if it doesn't matter much (like many passives), this one will be up for a nerf soon

I reached level 30 last night finally!
So today I doing my first Tribunal case, and listening to two people aruging, ones telling him that hes that bad, he should quit right now and uninstall the game. But so far nothing that I think that should be punished. they reported player is Vlad 0/6/2
Other 12 of his games were similar, just flat out leaving after he would die, or text said he would be feeding intentionally. So I guess I punished him.

I've been taking on 10 cases a day and I still haven't voted to pardon anyone...honestly, people are stupid to the core, they are intent on feeding 0/55/0 or 0/30/0 in ranked games, ragequitting at 5 mins because they die, non-stop N0000B spamming and lots of cursing. Even if I find ONE good game a player may have had, the other 6 will be rotten 100% of the time. Still love the tribunal though

I pardon some people, 2-3 for saying "noobs" because there were feeders in their teams and they had good ratio K/D. But most of the time.... SAKUJO! SAKUJO! SAKUJO!
Sakujo only feeders (on purpose), quit, afk, a lot of flame, racism.
BTW I was watching Dreamhack qualif', so:
In EU: Sk gaming will not go to dreamhack. It will be AAA (french team ), Gamedde (team of Zylor/Reyk from previous WCG) and FNATIC (best eu team in my opinion).
in US: it will be CLG (it was difficult for them... their last game against Rock Solid team was suspicious IMO but ok...), Team solo mid and epik gaming.
I watched some matchs and I think EU will pwn US!

Bought her, she really is the most difficult champion to use as of now. The Ball would have been hax if not for the leash; it limits her action range to a near-dangerous area, and The Ball has an average flying speed, average AP ratios on her moves, above average mana costs and a boatload of utility. Having no escape mechanism, she is easy to kite or just assassinate, but because she needs both mana and some CDR, building survivability can be tough (RoA+Morello's works fine, although she may need a bit more than that). Decent passive, maybe I'll try an AS/AP build for kicks later on. Surprisingly well-balanced for a first release.

Machine's 2010 "Home" Season Is CompleteBy: Daniel Kopf
On July 10 th 2010, the Chicago Machine walked out of Crew Stadium in Columbus Ohio, with their heads held high. Despite losing another heartbreaking game to the Long Island Lizards, the Machine had finally had their first true home game.
The game against the Lizards marked Chicago's sixth and final home game in a travel schedule that brought the team to various venues, ranging from Rochester, NY, to Cary, NC. For the first time this season the players could feel the electricity within the stadium despite the small crowd. Ohio native and Chicago Midfielder, Anthony Kelly, sensed a different atmosphere in Columbus than from the team's first five "home" games. "Columbus was a beautiful venue and the fans were into it. It's the best facility we've played in all year," Kelly said.
Chicago Machine President John Algie was also impressed by Columbus' crowd. "Columbus really has had an impressive amount of growth in terms of lacrosse in the area," Algie said. "Between the crowd we got at our game and the kids in the area, Columbus is the best candidate to get a team."
Unfortunately for the Machine, Columbus was the lone bright spot on their long travel schedule. According to Machine midfielder Chris Rotelli, the Machine's lack of a home crowd from week to week proved to be a severe disadvantage to the team. "It hasn't been a positive. No stadium has been our 11 th man on the field," Rotelli said. "There are teams out there that have fans win games. Not having that advantage, is the sacrifice we make for the good of the league."
This sacrifice might be a tough choice to make for some players but for Rotelli it's worth it. "It is worth it for us. We love to play and it gives us more to play for. It's really nice seeing new fans coming out to their first pro-outdoor lacrosse game," Rotelli said.
The sacrifice the Machine players make for the growth of the league does however come at a cost. "One main problem of not having a home is that we don't have a time for practice," Anthony Kelly said. "And on top of that, game day travel sucks. It's hard to get ready for the next day's game when you're taking red-eye flights the night before."
Currently the Machine does not have a home for next season and their future is still up for grabs. One thing however is for certain; the MLL's decision to have Chicago travel again could end the careers of several Machine players. "I know for a fact that a lot of guys won't play next year if that happens," Kelly said. "It was too tough for them with their real jobs. It's too tough to make a career."
One of the solutions to this problem would be to find a new home for the Machine. According to MLL Commissioner David Gross, expansion could be right around the corner. "A lot of it depends on finding the right ownership group and finding a right venue. It could take no time at all or it could take years, but the odds for expanding in 2011-2012 are very high," Gross said.
Finding the right market has been difficult for the MLL but Gross believes the success of a market goes beyond the game. "A lot of it is making the game an experience. At the All-Star Game the parking lot was sold out because everyone was tailgating," Gross said. "For a successful market like Boston it's not just about the game anymore."
The possibility for expansion remains strong but travel schedules also look to remain a mainstay. In the meantime, however, Anthony Kelly would like to see a change in how the MLL determines the travel schedules. "I'd like to see the league pick out three cities and play two games in each, Kelly said. "This way each market would have a good test run before it's considered for a new franchise."

GENEVA – While Kane County is gradually piecing its 2014 budget together, the County Board and the county's coroner continue to struggle to resolve differences over the coroner's request to hire two new deputies.
Monday, Kane County Coroner Rob Russell presented a budget request again to the Kane County Board's Finance Committee, reiterating his desire to add to his staff to meet the demands he believes his office is obligated to fulfill.
The budget request is Russell's first since he was elected by county voters in November.
Discussion of Russell's request came at the end of a series of budget presentations from other county offices and departments. Changes to those budgets yielded a savings of about $514,000 next year, which county officials believe could be used to help fund raises for county employees.
Russell asked the committee to sign off on an annual budget for his office of $886,000, which would mark an increase of about 17 percent from last year's $757,000.
Russell said the increase is needed to reorganize work shifts and respond to recent unionization of the deputy coroners.
Russell said he believes hiring the deputies would save the county about $24,000 next year versus paying existing deputy coroners to handle after-hours calls.
Russell said hiring more deputies would cost an additional $163,000, compared to $187,000 to pay current deputies a $100 a day on-call fee plus overtime for actual hours worked.
Russell said he believed the $886,000 budget had been backed by a county financial advisory panel, because it represented a reduction from the $943,000 budget Russell had originally requested in mid-August.
The finance committee expressed no opposition to the $886,000 figure Aug. 28, when County Finance Director Joe Onzick indicated that Russell agreed to remove raises for current staff from the proposal.
Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen disagreed with Russell's characterization of the budget talks, saying the $886,000 figure "had never been approved."
He said Russell did not present his budget request in the correct format, while chiding Russell for not discussing the request with county finance officials before presenting it to the board.
"He is saying, 'I'm an elected official, I know best,' " Lauzen said after the meeting. "But, no. Once you have your budget, then you do know best."
Lauzen also questioned the need for two new deputy coroners and the "assumptions" that undergirded Russell's request.
The committee also questioned Russell, asking, among other questions, whether the $100 a day on-call payment was necessary.
The committee opted to kick discussion of Russell's staffing needs to the County Board's Judicial and Public Safety Committee later this month.
Lauzen said he believed Russell and the board can reach agreement. But he said Russell will first need to open his office and operations to the board so they can decide if Russell's request is justified.
"I insist on getting information," Lauzen said. "I'm not taking anyone's word for it."

I gained a new title after a visit to the dentist Monday morning: Your Majesty. It's only fair, I reason, that someone with a crown is addressed in a royal manner.
I gained a new title after a visit to the dentist Monday morning: Your Majesty. It's only fair, I reason, that someone with a crown is addressed in a royal manner.
Sadly, this crown doesn't sit atop my head but rather in my mouth. It becomes yet another first in a sad litany of woes with my teeth: first cavity, first root canal, first extraction and now first crown. Sometimes it just doesn't seem fair for someone who has always brushed vigorously twice a day and went years without a cavity.
My first encounter with a major dental procedure occurred the summer after my sophomore year in college. I had my wisdom teeth removed. But I was put under anesthesia, so the procedure itself was a breeze. I do remember the first couple of days of recuperating weren't real pleasant due to the bleeding, though.
The latest dental dilemma started when I noticed some sharp pain when chewing food. It didn't happen every time I ate, and it often only occurred one time during a meal. But the fact it sometimes happened when I was eating relatively soft food gave me concern.
The pain came from a molar on the bottom left side of my mouth. For most people, it would be the next to back molar, but for me it was the back molar, as its companion cracked and had to be extracted a couple of years ago. My sons still laugh that the song that happened to play on my iPod as the dentist prepared to remove the tooth was "Wide Open Spaces" by The Dixie Chicks.
That's one reason I decided to visit the dentist when this latest pain started. I worry that my teeth may continue to pose problems, and I would prefer not to lose any others. Sure enough, the dentist detected a small crack in the molar, so he suggested a crown would be the best way to address the problem.
The procedure itself didn't cause much pain. The worst part is hearing the drill and smelling the aroma of burning tooth. The dental assistant warned me about biting my tongue, since it was numb along with the side of my mouth. As feeling returned about lunchtime, I realized I had indeed bitten my tongue, and it continued to bother me for a few days after the procedure.
A temporary crown now occupies the top part of the molar until I return in a couple of weeks for the permanent version. I became a bit concerned when the dental assistant provided some instructions on what to do should the temporary crown come off, since the office will be closed for vacation the next two weeks. Apparently one can buy dental cement at the drugstore.
Perhaps that do-it-yourself approach shouldn't surprise me. A coworker's son recently suffered a nasty gash on his chin when he fell while on a camping trip. Since no medical facility was close by, an off-duty paramedic suggested the use of Super Glue. Sure enough, that did the trick, and the pediatrician confirmed its use on a follow-up visit once they returned home.
I shared with my dad about my tooth problem, and he mentioned something that didn't bode well for the future. "I have a mouth full of crowns and bridges," he said, and then talked about how much money he'd spent on dental work in the past few years. So if genetics play a role in the health of our teeth, I may be in trouble.
A friend who recently underwent a medical procedure commented about some of the physical downsides of growing older. All of us begin to experience more aches and pains as we age, and some more serious medical issues crop up as well.
Routine check-ups and self-diagnosis can prevent some problems from developing. So I continue to brush regularly, and I started flossing nightly last year as well. I will do my best to give the rest of my teeth a fighting chance to remain whole.
I hope my only dental visits for several years after I receive my permanent crown will be for twice yearly cleanings. Those come without any bad sounds and smells, too — and I usually receive a free toothbrush as well.

It's strange that it occurs only in some web sites and as allready said not yet longer than since a few days. And there are sites where it occurs allways while in other ones only sometimes without I can see any rule when yes and when not.
Can anybody help?

How to Replace a Chair Cushion:
Changing a chair cushion can be fun and rewarding. There are two types of chair cushions: one is upholstered onto the chair with welting and the other can be unscrewed from the bottom and then popped off. The upholstered chair pad is a more challenging project and is better left in the hands of a professional upholsterer. The pop-up seat is less complicated, and with a few steps can be changed easily
- Turn the chair upside down and remove the screws holding the cushion onto the chair. Some cushions will have webbing on the underside; peel back the webbing to expose the bottom of the cushion and screws. The webbing is not important and can be permanently removed
- Remove the staples on the back of the cushion and pull off the fabric, exposing the foam cushion. Unless the cushion has mold or is very old, leave the cushion intact
- Fun Animal Upholstery Fabric
- fabric texture image by Andrejs Pidjass from Fotolia.com Measure out a piece of upholstery weight fabric by laying it over the cushion, or, depending on the size of the seat bottom, consulting a fabric chart may be of assistance. It is crucial to have enough fabric to wrap around and staple to the back of the seat. If you are covering more than one chair and the fabric has a pattern on it, make sure that you match the chairs to each other; this is where the yardage chart can really come in handy
- Once the fabric is cut and centered on the cushion, turn it over and begin to staple it to the wood or plywood back. Pay attention to the corners of the chair cushion, because they will need to be folded, almost like wrapping a present. Do not cover the screw holes with the fabric
How to Cover a Seat Cushion:
Seat cushions are usually screwed to the wood or metal frames of chairs making them easy to remove for simple re-upholstery. Removing the cushions and reupholstering using new fabrics is a good way to update the look of the chair and to remove damage and stains. Select a quality upholstery fabric that will wear well. Often a busy pattern is good for hiding future stains.
- Turn the chair upside down and unscrew the screws in the four corners of the chair. Often there is a small cross member right behind the leg. The cross member is a piece of wood or metal that is 2 to 3 inches long that crosses at a 45 degree angle from one side of the seat frame to the other. The cushion can be screwed to the chair frame or the cross member. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws
- Remove the fabric using pliers and a screwdriver. Make sure to remove all the old staples, brads, nails and screws along the underside of the chair. If you remove a cardboard or black fabric dust cover, set it aside for later
- Add foam to fill any holes in the contour of the seat. Use a fabric adhesive to attach it and shape the foam with an electric knife. Spray the seat with adhesive and place the cushion face down over quilt batting. Bring the sides of the batting up and staple at least 1 1/2 inch from the bottom edge of the seat. Batting helps to shape and soften the cushion. Ease your corners and trim off any excess batting
- Find the center of your fabric if it has a strong pattern or design. Align the center of the fabric on the cushion in the way you want the pattern to show. Make sure it is straight. Turn the cushion face down and carefully stretch and staple the center top and bottom. Working back and forth staple from the center out. Check the face frequently for a smooth and straight finish
- Staple the centers of your sides and then move from side to side and from the center out. Fold or ease your fabric at the corners and trim off any excess fabric
- Cut a new fabric dust cover in cardboard or black dust fabric and staple the dust cover to the bottom of the cushion so that the staples form a neat line around the dust cover. This will give your chair a nice finishing touch. Re-attach your cushion to your chair

J.R. Ward's Lover at Last
May 7, 2013 by Public Services
