Balls - Donald Butler! To this point our DMVP Corey Liuget - playing like a beast the last 4 weeks. Ryan Mathews - Needs to get 20 carries a game. Atari Bigby - A nice pickup in the offseason. Birds - Antoine Cason - You know a player played bad, when he gets a bird despite getting a pick in the game. Cason is by far the worst player on our defense. Norv Turner - A hair brianed game plan topped with the stupidity of trying to send Mathes a message by only giving him 2 carries in the 1st half. This game should have been a blowout by halftime, to the tune of 35 or 42 to nothing. Robert Meachem - Did not catch a single pass for the 2nd game this season, dude needs to GET OPEN! I would give one to Rivers too, but I feel like Norv and the receivers were a bigger part of the problem today. Rivers needs to learn the intentional grounding rule, and stop throwing to blanketed receivers.
Balls Corey Liuget - man among small children against the Chiefs - he's becoming something special Vaughn Martin - another man among boys Donald Butler - this guy should be in the pro bowl Jackie Battle - You know he loved every moment of this Eric Weddle - fantastic game and play Middle Ground Ryan Mathews - he played well after his time out, now don't fumble Jared Gaither - Great to see him back, but going from can't be on the field to starting in one week is questionable Rest of the OL - Played much better with Gaither, but that's a big complaint Antonine Cason/Quentin Jammer - some real good, some real bad too Philip Rivers - did very well today but you HAVE TO STOP throwing those poor balls Busts Chargers in the third quarter - Please stop turtling when you are in the lead Robert Meachem - Another poor game, though the first incomplete to him should've been thrown deeper Jarrett Johnson - is he doing much out there? I don't see him accomplishing much
Balls.. Norv for giving way to Battle. Norv for using Mathews late in a lopsided game. Defense.. for becoming a dominate force. Novak,, Making 3 kicks after not being with the team for a few weeks. Keading for pulling his groin Busts Norv for taking a knee on KCs 30 yrd line wit :30 seconds left. Norv for just having a name like Norv
Balls - Persons on D who don't play CB Gaither for playing Birds - Our offense for being up a mere 2 TDs inspite of a 6 to 1 Turnover differential at one point in the game. Our Corners for not being able to cover anyone. If Cassel were a real QB we'd have gotten carved up. Our interior line and CBs continue to be garbage this year.
People need to give the Gaither crap a rest. First, they were screaming that he was faking and would never play another down. Now, they say his "recovery" is suspicious. Bottom line, Gaither played and played well. The fact that few details were disclosed on the injury does not necessarily mean he was faking it. Teams are notoriously mysterious about injuries. Jammer was also terrific today. Tough and physical. Set the tone. He got beat on a few plays, but every corner does.
Ball for Jammer because no one else will give him one. He laid the wood and forced the fumble that sealed the game.
Balls Battle, hangs on to the ball and pounds. Gates, is he the only guy that gets open?? Butler, just plays damn good ball Jammer, the dude can still hit and still outplays Cason Birds River's, just to damn unpredictable anymore. Cason, is he the best they have to offer. Dude couldn't even cover his own arse with both hands. Offense, this game should've been way out of hand with 6 TO's Rygina, dude just scares the hell out of me whenever he touches the ball not to mention totally whiffed on the lateral.
Balls - Chargers Birds - Chiefs Honorable ball to Matt Cassel for gifting this game to the Chargers over and over and over and over and over.... I think he just threw another INT as I typed this.
Also a ball for Charles for the two fumbles. I was cracking up by the 4th quarter, as the announcers continually extolled the greatness of Charles without mentioning the fumbles, while constantly discussing Mathew's fumbling.
I'm revisiting this, and just wanted to say that Donald Butler has been playing like an elite ILB, and by elite I mean top 5.
I'm too much of a gentleman to do it, but I could see some truth in an editor's re-working a sentence that includes terms like "balls" and "in Cassels face all game"..I mean, hypothetically...
It was a good win today despite the offense not scoring more with all the TO's. I'm glad Gaither played as well as he did and there was a noticeable difference in protection. Norv gave Rygina just enough action to help build him back up and he can move the chains, just needs to prove he'll hang onto the rock.
If we give an "Honorable ball" to Cassel, don't you have to honor the Chief coaching staff, as well? Six turnovers (really, 7 or maybe 8, with better officiating) doesn't just happen. Now, yes, that would appear to point to terrible coaching, but since I always say that coaches can only be blamed for so much of the players' screw-ups, and lack of execution, I'll offer a specific bad coach move: It's the Chargers' very first drive. We're just a hair over three minutes into the game: Floyd makes a great catch. Romeo challenges. WTF? Was the catch in doubt? No. Was it the difference re. a crucial first down? No, it was a first down either way. No, Crennel spent one of only two vital coach's challenges, not on some big game-changing play, or crucial turnover...but in hopes of moving a Charger first down back by 6 yards. Of course, because his team was never in the game, there was no dramatic "The Chiefs must challenge this play...but they have no challenges" moment late in the game... but that doesn't excuse wasting a challenge on an early trivial play...
Birds Norv Turners play calling to have ronnie brown and jackie battle more involved in the pass game then our wr additions... i know norv likes to throw to the rb out of the backfield but am i the only one that gets a little concerned with the direction of our offense when ronnie brown and jackie battle consistently have more receiving yards then guys like eddie royal and robert meachem? the lack of wr involvement on this team is likely to be frustrating rivers as well as we been seeing him force the ball more then usual as of late
Balls: Butler - He's just a flat-out baller, was all over the field today. Liuget - Got great push on the pocket, nice strip on the ball. Too bad he's only a fit for the 4-3, right matilack? Martin - Possibly the best game he's played to date. Ingram - Good things happen when he's in the game. Whoda thunk he could bat down a pass with such short arms? Phillips - Good pressure on Cassell, nice strip. Mathews/Battle - Got it done when needed, secured the ball, put points on the board. Novak - Nice job of coming in at the last minute & performing well. Norv - Tied Coryell for wins. All 3 Eric's - Weddle for the early int. Winston for playing worse than Clary. Berry for getting worked by Gates. Cassell - He sucks. Period. Pioli isn't the magician he thinks he is. Birds: Cason - Do I even need to elaborate? A better QB would have torched his *** even more. After what? 4 different DC's? It's not the scheme, it's you. Wright needs to get healthy ASAP. Rivers - Sorry, PR, but I gotta do it. The int was a poor decision, you're lucky that you weren't picked in the end zone, & you flat out missed a TD to Meachem. Norv-haters & preemptive Chicken Littles - I can call names if you'd like, but I feel fairly certain that you already know who you are. It has to be embarrassing to walk around with a constant whine & sore ***. Plays/players worth mentioning: Jammer - Made some really nice hits but got worked a bit by Bowe. Gaither - Our OL is definitely improved with him in the lineup. Cason - Nice concentration on the int, but damn - you're a liability on an improving defense. Weddle - How the hell did you miss recovering that onside kick? Maybe it's just a lack of killer instinct. 3-1, biatches. And Conc, it's spelled Cassell, not Castle.
A lot of people are getting mad at Rivers throwing the ball to covered receivers. Those are the same people who cheered in years passed as Rivers did that allowing VJ and Floyd to go up for the balls. I am not sure if it is just my perception but it appears that the receivers and not climbing the ladder this year. That means Rivers has to adjust. And lastly... Bit me...
Yeah, I agree with your comments for HALF of the PR problem. However, I am more concerned about what I see as the other HALF. How did he under throw Meachem early in the game? Just seems to be a trend that one or two plays per game he doesn't have the arm to air it deep. The jump ball half can be fixed if he can change his mindset, but the deep ball? If its gone its gone, that's what scares me.
Agree, at times Rivers worries me. So far this season he has kept the ints down (I would prefer much less though) and has been able to lead us beyond the turnover... That said, a big part of that is a (so far, knocking on wood) much improved D.
Before and after the KC game, Rivers was on a pace for 16 INTs this year... a bit better than last season's 20, but still no prescription for success. He does seem especially snake bit re. Meachem. I don't have anything against Meachem, but I'm beginning to worry that his and Rivers' styles just don't mesh well. Would love to be convinced otherwise.
I've been watching River's since his freshman year at NCSU and yes there is a difference in the way he's playing. He looks like he's playing scared to me as in no faith in his protection and other than Gates and Floyd he seems timid in his throws to Meachem and Royal. Meach looked great with Brees and it appears that he was just asked to go run and we'll get you the ball. Royal I don't understand, it's 3rd and 7 and he runs a four yard route??? it's happened on several plays. I hope it's just them learning the intricacies of the offense and River's isn't helping out much with his poor decisions. Time will tell but I hope it doesn't run out on them to all get on the same page. River's is still a top notch QB and when Brown gets back it may take some of the heat off all involved. Both Meach and Royal should compliment this offense just as much as RM can when he holds onto the ball. If it all comes together they will be scary good especially if the defense continues to grow.
Don't be a chicken little. Rivers arm is not gone. He just threw it late. Look at the deep ball to Meachem in the Raiders game if you need confirmation. Rivers aired it out and hit him perfectly in stride. He has several other nice deep throws this year, including one against the Falcons that Floyd should have caught.
I agree more with the end of your post than the beginning. For all the talk about Rivers poor play, he had a 115 passer rating yesterday.
I'm not sure that I'd say "great." Here's a First Round Draft pick, playing with arguably the best gunslinger in the NFL, and he only tops 640 yards in one of his 4 seasons. I know Drew spreads the ball around, but I always thought of Meachem as a borderline underachiever in New Orleans.
I'm not sure how using words like 'concerned' and 'if' make me a chicken little. There has been more than one pass in the past 20 games (I'd venture one per game) which Rivers has not delivered the ball deep enough. And while he has played much better this year, he is still on pace to throw 16 INTs (too many). Its not like I'm calling for him to be benched or even that he is not a top 10 QB. I just see some red flags which have me worried. Don't accuse people with less than a rainbow outlook of being doomsday-ers.
Balls: Norv Turner & coaching staff (most notably, DC Pagano) – I was pleased to see how this team responded to the humiliating, home beatdown suffered at the hands of the Falcons. The resurgent Bolts stormed out of the tunnel & took control of the game real early. I also agree with the decision to start Battle over Mathews. It seemed to demonstrate to Ryan that subsequent fumbles will cost him playing time & possible even his starting role, and it gave Jackie a chance to punish the team that he called his own for the previous 5 seasons. Shaun Phillips – Beastly game! Constantly in the backfield, forced & recovered a fumble. Jackie Battle – Really showed the Chiefs that you still have a lot in the tank, scoring both a rushing touchdown, and a receiving one as well. Donald Butler – Flying all over the field, and yet another pick-six. Jared Gaither – Good to see him back on the field, playing effectively. I only saw him get beaten once, on the play in which Philip was nearly sacked for a safety. Eric Weddle – Another interception, and some timely blitzes as well. Ryan Mathews – Took his semi-benching & backup role like a man, and performed effectively. Can't wait to see him run on that fast carpet in New Orleans, he may really put on a show. Quentin Jammer – Another game, another ticky-tack PI penalty but he led the team in tackles, & forced a fumble. Eddie Royal – 1st touchdown as a Charger, hopefully the first of many! Very effective in the slot, and it's probably just a matter of time before he returns a punt for a score. Takeo Spikes & Vaughn Martin – For their forced fumbles. Nick Novak – Got off his couch & went 3 for 3 in field goal attempts, to include a few touchbacks as well. The next time we need his services, he just may not be available. Bird: Philip Rivers – That stupid interception (and subsequent KC touchdown) nearly got the demoralized Chiefs right back into the game. I could understand if these picks were the result of tipped passes, or great plays made by the defender but the majority of them are just bad decisions by Philip. We can usually get away with it while playing bad teams, but every team we play this season won't be as inept as the Raiders, Titans or Chiefs.

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Phone: 404-353-1709
Hometown: Buffalo, NY
Birthday: April 29
Bio: Although I grew up hooked on writing, news and information, journalism is actually my second career. I spent more than 10 years working as a registered sales assistant for a Wall Street firm. I left that business to promote a non-fiction book I wrote on relationships, and later became a feature and news reporter. My time in newspapers can be compared to a period I spent as a volunteer with the Innocence Project in New York City. Both experiences required gathering information, which anchored and taught me to be objective so I could complete my task and connect with people. That is my honored duty, as editor, to the residents of Sandy Springs – to be your most objective and fair source of news and information.
Your Beliefs
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for you to inject your beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that your beliefs are on the record will cause you to be ever mindful to write, report and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know.
How would you describe your political beliefs?
I'm inclusive and my interests tend to lean towards those that benefit everyone. Having said that, I'm always interested in and welcome a perspective that is different from my own.
How religious would you consider yourself? (casual, observant, devout, non religious)
I'm very much a spiritual person. I was raised Catholic and remain connected to that faith. However, my personal beliefs extend beyond the Catholic religion.
Local Hot-Button Issues
What do you think are the most important issues facing the community?
Ongoing storm water problems for homeowners. Sandy Springs is battling Fulton County over responsibility for the issue. In the meantime, affected homeowners are frustrated, at best, or furious over erosion of their property.
Where do you stand on each of these issues?
Rather than take a stance, I feel it is my job to effectively report all sides of the issue.

Cross-country skier breaks through ice on Mississippi
La Crosse - A cross-country skier was taken to the hospital after breaking through the ice on the Mississippi River.
The man was skiing from La Crosse to Galesville when he broke through and became submerged Tuesday afternoon. A La Crosse Tribune reporter found the man after he managed to crawl out of the hole about 30 feet from shore and alerted authorities.
First responders rushed the man to Mayo Clinic Health System in La Crosse. His condition was not available.
Husband charged in shooting death of Wauwatosa officer
Benjamin Sebena, a wounded Iraq war veteran who told investigators he had been stalking his wife for days, was charged Thursday in the Christmas Eve shooting death of his wife, Wauwatosa Police Officer Jennifer L. Sebena.
According to a criminal complaint, Benjamin Sebena told police he shot his wife early Monday after lying in wait for her for hours.
When she emerged from a break at the Wauwatosa Fire Department station on Underwood Ave., he said, he shot her in the back of her head with his own handgun and then shot her several times in the face with her service weapon, according to the complaint. Sebena faces a charge of first-degree intentional homicide, use of a dangerous weapon. Bail has been set at $1 million. »Read Full Article
U.S. grants extension to state's SeniorCare benefits
Madison - The prescription drug program SeniorCare will continue through at least 2015 after Wisconsin received an extension from federal authorities.
SeniorCare has been in place since 2002 under a Medicaid waiver for Wisconsin approved by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The waiver was to expire on Monday, the last day of the year, but Gov. Scott Walker announced Thursday that the federal agency had extended the waiver until Dec. 31, 2015. The state can later apply for a further extension.
"I am pleased to announce SeniorCare's renewal to Wisconsin's parents, grandparents, friends and neighbors, who depend on it," the GOP governor said in a statement. "It's important for Wisconsin's seniors to be able to get the prescription drugs they need at an affordable price." »Read Full Article(11)
Background check requests for gun purchases up 60%
Americans continue to arm themselves at a brisk pace, leaving businesses that sell guns, gun parts and some types of ammunition in Wisconsin scrambling to meet demand.
Total sales figures for firearms in the state or nation don't exist. The best yardstick of sales is the number of background checks done each time a gun is purchased.
The Wisconsin Department of Justice's background check hotline for handgun purchases has handled 60% more calls year to date as of Dec. 23 than it did for the same period last year, and the total number of calls this year has far surpassed all of 2011, agency numbers show. »Read Full Article(377)
Transfer of flier miles couldn't get off the ground
When Frontier Airlines dramatically cut back on its flights out of Milwaukee this summer, the airline announced a one-time courtesy offer that let frequent fliers convert their accumulated miles and status to Delta Air Lines. Nearly 61,000 customers did so successfully, according to Frontier.
But two Journal Sentinel readers from separate parts of the state weren't left with a good feeling. They both made several failed attempts to get their Frontier Early Returns miles transferred to Delta SkyMiles before the deadline on Aug. 31. They were told to wait a few more weeks for the miles to show up in their accounts, but nothing happened. When they checked with the airline again later, they were told it was past the deadline and that the transfers wouldn't happen.
That's when they contacted the Journal Sentinel. »Read Full Article(6)
Stefaniak dedicated life to helping poor
It's a story that lingers with the family of Father James S. Stefaniak. How poor were the people of Peru that he worked among? When he visited their homes, they often had just one bowl and one spoon. A family would give the bowl and spoon to him, so that he could eat first.
It was just one tale of life in Peru that Stefaniak told to family and friends back home in Milwaukee.
"We really felt like we were walking amongst a saint on this earth," said his niece, Tracy Stefaniak Borgardt of New Berlin, who grew up hearing tales of his life and work in Peru. »Read Full Article

MMSD tallies up charges for communities
The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District completed work on its 2013 budgets Thursday when it notified 10 communities outside Milwaukee County they owe the district more than $26.8 million as their share of major capital projects next year.
The total amount billed to the 10 municipalities is up 0.2% from this year, MMSD Controller Mark Kaminski said Thursday.
Milwaukee County property owners, with the exception of South Milwaukee, will pay a total property tax levy of nearly $88.7 million for 2013, up 2.5% from this year. South Milwaukee maintains its own sewage treatment plant and is not served by MMSD. »Read Full Article(2)
Manufacturing index turns up for first time since June
Manufacturing in southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois improved in December for the first time in five months, according to a monthly survey of manufacturers released Thursday.
The survey's index measuring industrial health was 52.2, up from 45.3 in November, noted Marquette University's Center for Supply Chain Management and the local chapter of the Institute of Supply Management, the organizations that compile the monthly data.
An index score above 50 indicates growth, while below 50 indicates decline. December was the first time the area's seasonally adjusted index climbed above 50 since June. »Read Full Article(11)

Deadline nears on fundraising goal for fighting childhood cancer
With only a few days left, the Share Unstoppable Happiness campaign is aiming to hit its goal of raising $25,000 to fight childhood cancer.
For each "share" that a digital holiday card receives on Share Unstoppable Happiness site, the Northwestern Mutual Foundation will donate $1 to two nonprofits involved with childhood cancer efforts, Alex's Lemonade Stand and Starlight Children's Foundation. The campaign is set to end Sunday.
Alex's Lemonade Stand and Starlight Children's Foundation are partners of Northwestern Mutual's Childhood Cancer Program, a multi-year commitment to accelerate a cure for childhood cancer and to support families battling the disease.
'Slow, steady improvement' forecast for area economy
The Milwaukee-area economy was flat this year but should see a return to slow, steady improvement in 2013, a report by PNC Bank says.
Even if a solution to the "fiscal cliff" of automatic federal spending cuts and tax increases ends up being a retroactive fix rather than a timely one, metro Milwaukee's fate probably will track closely with how the nation as a whole fares, PNC economist Kurt Rankin said
PNC's national forecast is for acceleration in the U.S. economy throughout 2013, although perhaps tempered initially by consumers' lack of confidence in politicians to manage the nation's economic path. »Read Full Article(70)
Vos previously backed changing electoral vote rules
Madison - Incoming Assembly Speaker Robin Vos signaled last week that changing how the state allocates its Electoral College votes was not a priority, but he has backed the idea in the past.
Gov. Scott Walker said recently he would consider changing how the state delivers its 10 electoral votes for president, switching from a winner-take-all system to one where votes are parceled out by congressional district. The GOP governor - who has been mentioned as a possible 2016 candidate for president - nei ther embraced nor rejected the notion, but said it was worthy of debate.
Vos, a Republican from Rochester, declined to comment on the matter last week, saying through a spokeswoman that the Assembly would focus on other areas such as strengthening the economy.

Madison officer cleared in shooting of neighbor
Madison - Prosecutors have cleared of any wrongdoing a Madison police officer who shot and killed a man last month.
Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne released a statement Thursday saying a homeowner awoke to find his neighbor, Paul Heenan, in his house on Nov. 9. Heenan had been drinking and was confused.
The homeowner's wife called police. Officer Stephen Heimsness arrived with his weapon drawn. According to Ozanne's statement, both Heimsness and the homeowner said Heenan charged Heimsness. The officer said he thought Heenan was trying to grab his gun and he fired because he feared for his life.
Ozanne concluded Heimsness didn't violate any statutes. The prosecutor said anyone who believes he or she faces a genuine threat of deadly force can respond with deadly force.

Video shows effects of war on Benjamin Sebena
A 10-minute video posted more than a year ago on YouTube makes it clear that former Marine Benjamin Sebena, who has been charged in the shooting death of his wife, a Wauwatosa police officer, left Iraq a profoundly affected man.
"My experiences in Iraq were that of having to watch over 50 of my friends, that are good friends, die. Having to kill people. Having to kill a child who tried to kill me," Sebena says as a camera moves toward him in the back of his church, sitting in his favorite seat, the one in front of a pillar so his back is always covered.
"I was a Marine," Sebena's voice says over the video of him sitting alone and staring downward. He has a crew cut and wears an olive green long-sleeved T-shirt. »Read Full Article

Alcohol and speed contributed to the fatal crash at 9:50 p.m. Monday, Bishop said.

Cinders or dust? Cover the coal cars
February 20, 2013 · Updated 6:23 PM
It appears the biggest fear of environmentalists and some public outcry is about coal cinders or coal dust flying all over the place. Whether this is an actuality or not, I don't know. If this problem is real or perceived, there may be a solution.
My wife and I were making a left turn from 15th Southwest to C Street northbound. In front of us was a very long coal train in the Auburn train yard, the cars uncovered. They appeared to be headed north, to where we don't know. To get to to that point, the train must have traveled through much of the state.
We discussed this in light of the concerns listed above, and decided that coal cars should be covered. We envision that each car has a cover that is pulled across, similar to the home patio awning as seen on TV. Two arms attached to the ends of the car would pull the cover over the coal and fasten tight on the other side. This action would happen soon after the coal is loaded into the car. At the end of the journey, electric motors would pull the cover to its original position. One could call it a motorized venetian blind.
The cost of the retro-fit would be on the shoulders of the coal company or the train company, or both. If compliance is not forthcoming, a law could be passed if the coal company wants to travel through Washington state.

Brasil Precisa Balancar
LP (Item 398589) Schema (Italy), 2006 — Condition: New Copy
The best work so far from Rosalia De Souza – a session that features production and guitar from bossa legend Roberto Menescal, and a sound that's deeper and even more classic than any of Rosalia's other work! Most of the instrumentation here is in an older acoustic mode – piano, percussion, and horns arranged by Menescal with that beautifully lighter than air style that he first pioneered in the 60s – an approach that lets Rosalia's vocals drift along on wonderfully gentle rhythms, and dominate the record even more than before. Given that the set's on Schema, there's still a nicely rhythmic component to most numbers – but overall, the record's a bold step forward even for the label – similar to the all-acoustic move made by Nicola Conte in his own recordings! Marcos Valle joins in on vocals on "Que Bandeira", and other tunes include "Onde Anda O Meu Amor", "Voz Da Lapa", "Jogo De Roda", "Rio De Janeiro", "Mar Amar", "Um Novo Dia", and "Vivo Sonhando". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

LONG BEACH - A popular Long Beach Unified college prep program will enroll 260 fewer high school students next year and will cease to exist at middle and K-8 schools under the latest budget cuts.
The Long Beach Unified Board of Education voted unanimously Tuesday to reduce the Advancement Via Individual Determination program, known as AVID, on the high school level and eliminate the program at the lower grades for an annual savings of $470,000.
The high school program, which has 50 course sections, will be reduced by 13 course sections across the district. School officials said that will mean 260 fewer students will be able to enroll in AVID.
The district had planned for harsher cuts. Last month, the school board considered virtually eliminating AVID to save $1 million, but the plan was revised after officials heard from concerned AVID instructors touting the benefits of the program.
"AVID is an outstanding program and the district has been a leader in AVID, but one thing the district is facing is these federal cuts in funding," said Long Beach Unified Superintendent Chris Steinhauser.
AVID is a national program designed to help students in the academic middle - B, C and D students - prepare for college. Those with the desire to go to college and the willingness to work hard are placed in advanced classes and provided with an elective class that helps with college readiness.
The program in recent years has seen
The planned cuts to AVID were part of a $13 million round of reductions in the school district's budget approved last month. The passage of Proposition 30, Gov. Jerry Brown's tax measure, helped the district to avoid further losses in revenue.
However, the district still faces a $57 million deficit for the 2014-2015 year.
Officials said the AVID program in middle and K-8 schools will be replaced with a similar program called Long Beach Scholars. Steinhauser said the district will work to incorporate components of AVID as a way to keep the essence of the program.
Speaking before the board on Tuesday, Wilson High School senior Ceirsti Macomber shared how AVID changed her life. The 17-year-old, who formerly lived in foster care and struggled with depression, said the program gave her the support and stability she lacked at home.
Macomber will attend the University of Montana this fall on a full scholarship, she said.
"AVID gave me the opportunity to show that I am more than a statistic," Macomber said. "I can be more than just another student, more than just another face in the crowd.
"Without AVID, I wouldn't be where I am today."

The proposition is even riskier for anyone who co-signs one of these loans. While it might seem like an easy way to make some quick cash, the ad could be a ploy to steal your identity and money. And there are other serious consequences that you face as a co-signer.
"You're co-signing for someone a bank has already identified as someone who doesn't deserve the loan," said Ulzheimer.
Not only are you expected to pay the loan in full if the borrower fails to make payments or defaults, but you may also be on the hook for late fees and collection costs. Creditors can sue and attempt to garnish your wages to collect the money, and late payments or any record of default will appear on your credit reports and hurt your credit scores.
The chances of being asked to step in are high: As many as three out of four co-signers are called upon to repay loans that have gone into default, according to the Federal Trade Commission.
Even if the borrower and co-signer sign a legal contract that says the co-signer isn't responsible for the debt, the bank can still go after them if the borrower defaults -- and it is then up to the co-signer to chase down the borrower for the funds owed, said Carol Kaplan, a spokeswoman for the American Bankers Association.
But some people are still tempted to take this risk. According to Larry Williams, a 25-year-old student at Rutgers University in New Jersey, he has come close to finding someone willing to co-sign for the $8,000 loan he's seeking.
Williams hasn't been able to keep up with his rent and other bills after losing several thousand dollars to gambling and other bad financial decisions. The loan would help him get back on track, he says, and he plans to find full-time work when he graduates next spring so he can pay it off.
After posting an ad on Craigslist offering to pay a co-signer $2,000, he was inundated with responses from scammers. He even paid a $10 fee to sign up for a matchmaking service that promised to pair him with a co-signer, but it never panned out. Eventually, though, he heard from two different people who agreed to help him. They even asked him for the co-signer form to sign.
But at the last minute they each decided it was just too risky -- especially since Williams had no collateral. One of them had even lost money as a co-signer in the past, he said.
Williams said he understands that it's a big risk, but he is still hopeful. "I know it's like strangers and everything (on Craigslist), but I don't have any family members to go to to co-sign a loan for me," he said. "I almost found success, so I'm hoping there's just one person out there who's willing to help."

Tiburcio Vasquez, a 19th century outlaw, is remembered in historical accounts as a notorious criminal who terrorized southern California.
But one school district in California wants to remember him another way: as a hero to the Hispanic community who fought back against injustice.
The Alisal Union School District set off a controversy last month when it announced that an elementary school in Salinas to be opened this year will be named after Vasquez.
The move has led some local leaders, including the Salinas mayor, to criticize the controversial choice.
"We had a young man killed in Afghanistan who was from the Alisal area. He would have been a nice person to name the school after," Mayor Joe Gunter said Wednesday. "There's a lot of good people we could name a school after, in my opinion."
According to a biography culled together by the University of Southern California, Vasquez was "probably the most notorious bandit California ever saw."
Vasquez turned to a life of crime as a teenager and served time in San Quentin State Prison for stealing horses in the late 1850s, the biography states.
He and his gang went into hiding in the canyons of Southern California after a "string of infamous robberies and murders" in 1873, the biography says.
Vasquez eventually was captured, convicted of murder and hanged.
His doesn't sound like a life to be emulated, but there is another side to his life story, said Francisco Estrada, a retired school teacher and member of the naming committee in the Alisal school district.

Montrose Elementary receives grant for 'recess renovation'
Montrose Elementary School students jumped rope, played hopscotch and participated in games of foursquare recently on their newly painted blacktop during recess. But now, recess for Montrose students is a bit different. With the help of a grant from Capital One, Montrose was able to launch "Organized Recess," a time of day where students can participate in cooperative games that double as "teachable moments" in the areas of social skills and good citizenship. "We have done some research and gathered that organized recess decreases discipline incidents," said Montrose Principal Dana Baldacci. "So we decided this year we'd do several days a week of organized recess, and through this grant, we are able to do it." Capital One volunteers came out early in the week to repaint the blacktop and then again later in the week to show students how to safely use the equipment in a variety of games that aimed at fostering participation and fair play (pictured). Each classroom also received a bucket full of new recess materials that encourage students to interact and play with one another in a collaborative way. "This is a great opportunity that Capital One gives us to give back to the community and the neighborhood," said Tim Gunn, a Capital One employee. "It's been a great experience, one of the kids even said it was better than field day, so that's just sort of the icing on the cake for us." |

"The question also is how much Hamas wants to risk," the official said.
A second official said the United States also is watching closely to see if Iran, which backs Hamas, attempts to infiltrate new fighters or weapons supplies into Gaza. Neither official would speak on the record because they were discussing sensitive national security matters.
Daniel Ben Simon, an Israeli Knesset member not aligned with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition, said Friday that he sensed "almost an absence" from Washington, adding, "It's time for the Americans to step in."
"We need the boss, and the boss is still the White House," Ben Simon said, calling U.S. officials "the only ones that can control the situation and ... talk freely" to all sides. "It seems the White House is too silent."
U.S. President Barack Obama did talk Friday with Netanyahu, after the Israeli prime minister called him to voice "deep appreciation ... for the United States' investment in the Iron Dome rocket and mortar defense system," the White House said.
"The president reiterated U.S. support for Israel's right to defend itself, and expressed regret over the loss of Israeli and Palestinian civilian lives," the statement said. "The two leaders discussed options for de-escalating the situation."
Obama called Egyptian President Mohammed Morsy, commending "Egypt's efforts to de-escalate the situation and (expressing) his hope that these efforts would be successful," the White House said in another statement. The president also "expressed regret for the loss of Israeli and Palestinian civilian lives."
The State Department says Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has made a number of phone calls trying to muster international pressure to stop what it terms a "very, very dangerous situation" in Gaza.
Clinton, traveling in Asia, called Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Kamel Amr for the second time in as many days, as well as Jordanian King Abdullah and Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Friday.
"In all cases her message has been the same: that we are urging a de-escalation of this conflict, we are urging those countries with influence on Hamas and other groups in Gaza to use that influence to get a de-escalation."

Crimestoppers: Police Seek Walmart Robbery Suspects
By: Ron Rosseau, KTAB News

Store employees at an Abilene Walmart say the women in this video started to leave without paying for some of the items in their shopping basket.
When the employees tried to stop them, a physical struggle ensued, and the women left. That struggle changed the incident from a shoplifting case to a robbery.
Crimestoppers offers a cash reward for information that helps police arrest and charge the suspects in this case. As always, you may remain anonymous.
The Crimestoppers hotline is 325-676-TIPS (325-676-8477).

Coke Stock Split May Irk Warren Buffett
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- For decades, Coca-Cola(KO) and Berkshire Hathaway's(BRK.A) Warren Buffett have had a successful relationship.
The mood may sour in the near term, however, as the soft-drink giant seeks approval for a 2-for-1 share split, a contentious topic for the famed billionaire.
Warren Buffett |
Although Buffett has offered harsh words for companies that have considered stock splits and new share issuance, the Oracle of Omaha in recent years has encouraged a split for the Class B shares of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B).
A report from Bloomberg notes that Coca-Cola's chairman is pushing for what will be the company's 11th share split. The move is a bid to attract new investors and boost liquidity.
Although the company may be successful in its efforts, the Oracle of Omaha has warned in the past that these types of moves are ultimately detrimental to current shareholders. By flooding the market with excessive new supply, current stakeholders will see their power diluted. In addition, a share split may attract short-term-minded individuals who are not truly interested in the company's long-term prosperity.
Buffett has famously lashed out against other companies in which he held stakes when they have suggested the idea of boosting the availability of their stock.
In 2010, food giant Kraft(KFT) announced its intentions to purchase Cadbury, and the Nebraska native was quick to express his displeasure.
Buffett railed against the $19.5 billion plan. Among his reasons was Kraft's proposal to issue as many as 370 million shares to help pay for the bid.
The investor ended up turning his words into action. In the middle of that year, the public learned that Buffett had slashed his exposure to Kraft, paring back his position by nearly 25%.

Sinus Palps in Seattle? Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Portuese can Help. Problems can develop because of a blockage of the cavities. The symptoms that are typically encountered are:
Problems with sinus palps can be quite recurring in nature, can affect the quality of life, and can lead to a decreased sense of energy. The sinus cavities are hollow chambers inside of the head and face that can become repeatedly infected and need to be surgically opened to reduce the symptoms. Millions of people are plagued by blocked cavities that do not respond well to medication. Endoscopic sinus surgery helps sinus palps and opens the internal sinuses. It also involves removing polyps on the inside of the sinuses as well. All of the procedure is done from the inside of the nose using telescopes. The recovery is less painful, and there is no visible bruising or scarring on the outside portion of the nose. Sinus Palps procedures involve a telescope that allows viewing of the inside of the patient's sinuses. There are four sets of sinuses inside everyones's face: 1. frontal 2. maxillary 3. ethmoid 4. sphenoid Each one of these has a narrow passageway through which aeration occurs, and through which the mucus drain out and into the nasal cavity. From the nasal cavity, the mucus drains down the back of the throat. When the sinuses are blocked, this becomes an infection with all the accompanying symptoms of headaches, facial pain, and pressure. Problems can be recurring and ongoing and can develop either from one sinus being blocked or multiple blockages. Procedures are available to help correct sinus palps. Sinus surgery is done for sinus palps under general anesthesia in our Medicare-certified outpatient surgery center. Magnified endoscopes (telescopes) with instrumentation are used to open up the blocked areas. Special attention is usually directed at the middle meatus, which is the area where most cavities drain into the nose. Sinus palps olyps are removed with the endoscopic surgery. If the ethmoid sinuses are blocked, an ethmoidectomy will be performed to remove the ethmoid air cell. The maxillary sinuses are opened only if needed, provided they have polyps or the skin lining on the inside of the sinuses is swollen. This procedure takes 30-45 minutes to perform, and two sponges are placed inside the nose to help with bleeding. These are removed by the patient the following day. Call Dr. Portuese at (206) 624-6200 for more information about sinus palps in Seattle today.
