5:30 pm ET 143 Views Woodford County High School strives to provide students opportunities to receive a quality education and to develop into successful adults. Under the direction of our faculty and staff, students' minds are stretched, their bodies strengthened, and their social and emotional skills are developed. Our primary goal is student academic achievement, but at Woodford County High School we also attempt to broaden the scope of what can be learned. Clubs, band, chorus, student government, and a wide variety of athletic activities provide many options for our students outside of the classroom. Students may also gain valuable work experience through our student newspaper and television studio, serving as tutors, or working cooperatively with community organizations. Students' achievements are recognized through daily announcements, honor roll postings, team banquets, television, and newspaper reports. Our guidance staff works diligently on behalf of our students by providing personal counseling, advising students on a course of study, and assisting them with career and college information. To ease the transition to high school, our freshmen are provided their own area of the building, faculty, and administration. Our Athletic Booster Club, Band Boosters, and the WCHS PTO provide the school with strong community support enhancing our school climate and effectiveness.

I wish there was a lid I could substitute for the regular fast-food cup lids that are only fitted with straw holes. I have a toddler and if restaurants offered a sippy cup lid option (or I had lids I could carry with me), it would really make life easier!
A line of marinades and spices for grilling would complement the Kingsford/ Hidden Valley brands. And possibly there could be a gluten-free option, as well.
I have many relatives and friends who must avoid gluten, and it's in almost every dressing. It's especially difficult in restaurants, as most gluten free menus focus on salads, but the only available gluten-free dressing is oil-and-vinegar. A line of gluten-free dressings for home use, and a line that restaurants could put on their menus so even the staff would be able to tell the gluten content, would be perfect.
I started using Static Guard to battle static cing in my house this past winter, and I really don't like the smell. Plus, it's an aerosol. I wish there was a non- aerosol anti-static fabric refresher.

News of the death of Mrs. C. P. Bethea, which occurred in this city Friday night about 11 o'clock, brought sadness to the hearts of her many friends. She had been in bad health for some time, but had only been confined to her bed for the past few weeks.
The deceased was born September 11, 1855, in Saline county, near Benton. She was the daughter of Alfred and Eliza Nelson Wright, who moved to Clark county in 1859, settling in the Palestine community, 11 miles west of Arkadelphia.
At the age of 15 years, she joined the Cumberland Presbyterian Church and lived a consistent Christian.
On January 16, 1875, she was married to Clarence J. Bethea, to which union ten children were born. About 10 years ago the family moved to Arkadelphia.
Mrs. Bethea is survived by one daughter, Mrs. W. E. Robey of Little Rock, and two sons, Jim of Graysonia, and Rob of this city, and 17 grandchildren, three brothers, John Wright of Little Rock, Charlie Wright of Hot Springs and Jeff Wright of Palestine, and one sister, Mrs. Nick McSwain of this city.
The funeral services were conducted Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clcock by Dr. J. I. Cannon, pastor of the First Methodist Church, and the body was laid to rest in Rose Hill cemetery. (Source: The Southern Standard, 11 Apr 1929.)
I am not related to Emily Bethea. She is part of the extended Bethea family, members of which married into my Callaways and McBrayers.
Emily was the mother-in-law of my grand-aunt, Maude McBrayer.

Snuff inhaled through tubes from small trays or tablets such as this one was a widespread practice in Precolumbian South America. In the San Pedro de Atacama region of northern Chile a large number of snuff trays have been found in burials in association with other paraphernalia, such as inhaling tubes, spatulas, small mortars and pestles, and snuff-powder containers. The snuff was prepared from the leaves, resin, and seeds of plants, many of them hallucinogenic, which were dried and finely ground. Historic and current data suggest that snuff had many purposes in the Andes: it was used to cure various ailments, to alleviate pain and hunger, to provide alertness in war and hunting, and to induce trances during rituals and religious ceremonies. The tray is decorated at one end with three carved figures. At the opposite end are the remains of an indigenous repair, a tie preventing a split, running the length of the tray, from widening.

I might also add that if you visit the official website (http://thedarkknightrises.warnerbros.com), you hear what seems to be some sort of chantingWhat that means is anyone's guess. Part of it was to lead one to Bane's picture but I'm not sure if the chant itself is from the movie or a new track from Zimmer (doubtful)
that would be awesome, but they just started shooting so I doubt it

Detroit Star
Detroit Star – Online Newspaper centering on DetroitThe Detroit Star is essentially a local Detroit newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Detroit, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.
The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.
We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.
Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.
We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Detroit, Michigan, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Detroit Star.

Research summary "I need help." We've all said it when we started using a new piece of hardware or software. And, while we joke about not being able to program a home VCR, schools and districts that are integrating computer networks and the dizzying array of software and hardware can't laugh away technical problems. They need help, and the issue of support goes beyond keeping the "wires and boxes" up and running. Lack of support presents many barriers to adopting emerging technologies into education (Rogers, 1999). These may include the scarcity of technical support in the form of user services and staff necessary to maintain components of the technology infrastructure. Something as minor as the lack of toner or ink cartridges for printers can have major impact on teachers who have planned activities dependent upon them. A lack of institutional support can also inhibit technology adoption. Attitudes towards technology and its uses also help determine what technologies and strategies are employed (Rogers, 1999). To be successful, school leaders must also provide pedagogical support to teachers faced with integrating technology into their classrooms. Do not falsely assume that there will be few technology problems just because equipment is new (Fisher & Dove, 1999). Cartwright (1996) notes that early in the adoption of computers in schools, training and support needs were expected to be short-term problems that would go away as computers became widespread. Computers and their peripherals are much more sophisticated than their educational technology predecessors, such as record players and televisions, and teachers should not be expected to solve complicated equipment malfunctions or maintenance problems. Schools and/or districts must provide maintenance either in-house or through outside contracts (Fisher & Dove, 1999). Equipment downtime can result in frustration, leading some teachers to avoid technology use (Consortium for School Networking, 1999). Knowing that they have support can encourage teachers to continue with their integration efforts despite their inability to solve all of their own technology troubles (Wolinsky, 1999). A good start is to incorporate support issues in planning. Anderson (1996) lists the following points to consider:
Support and professional development will be your largest ongoing costs (Coley, Cradler, & Engel, 1997). These two components can reasonably be considered the most critical components in the effective infusion of technology, but they often receive less attention than hardware, software, and networking concerns (Baily & Pownell, 1998). The difficulty of anticipating the need for consumable technology supplies -- such as toner cartridges, paper, storage materials, and software upgrades -- makes it hard to project these costs at the beginning of new technology initiatives. Remember that, as new technologies are adopted, the quantity and variety of these supplies increases (Fisher & Dove, 1999).
Many schools and districts struggle with funding technology support personnel. Finding and retaining support personnel can be difficult. Teachers note that many support personnel are paid salaries much greater than instructional personnel. Some schools report difficulty finding support personnel who have the interpersonal skills to work in a school environment. The increasing demand for technology support personnel means there is also high turnover (Fisher & Dove, 1999). While you must consider these difficulties, once you find technology support personnel, they will be assets (Candiotti & Clarke, 1998).
Given the investment required to provide a significant number of computers for instructional purposes, it's unfortunate that their useful life is only three to five years (Consortium for School Networking, 1999). Total-cost-of-ownership models for businesses are usually calculated on a three-year cycle, but schools may be able to stretch this to five years. Some schools may be expected to etend the life of computers beyond five years, but this may actually negate an attempt at savings, as older machines often require greater maintenance and support costs.
Inadequate long-range planning can seriously compromise future equipment use (AEL, 2000). While a purchasing and replacement cycle of five years is recommended, schools traditionally use one-year funding cycles, not long-range budgets. Because schools or districts may not be able to make long-term budget commitments, many experts recommend that schools purchase computers with the most memory and processing power they can afford (Consortium for School Networking, 1999).
Older equipment may be designated to less intensive work. For example, computers that can still run word-processing software are useful for text-based projects. Older computers can also be used as "dumb" terminals for proprietary software (such as inventory and cataloging software used in libraries and media centers) or can be designated as single use machines for individual software titles (AEL, 2000). Older computers may actually need more support as they become less reliable. You may also be surprised by fees charged to dispose of computers (Consortium for School Networking, 1999).
Anderson (1996) lists considerations that may reduce maintenance costs in the long run. Routine monitoring of equipment and basic preventative maintenance can reduce many major equipment failures. When buying equipment, also consider purchasing common replacement parts at the same time. Maintenance contracts may give a false sense of security. Read contracts and warranties closely and know what is and is not covered. Make sure equipment is accessible in case repairs are necessary, and keep maintenance logs of all equipment. These logs can provide assessment data when further purchasing decisions are required. Outside maintenance services are an option, and some vendors now offer leasing of computers with maintenance support and replacement built into the contract. Include basic maintenance in training sessions -- for both staff and students -- and consider outside volunteers as a resource for low-cost or free service (Anderson, 1996).
Teachers who integrate technology are faced with several new challenges. They must be able to select appropriate software, develop strategies to integrate the technology into their activities, and assess students in new ways (Fulton, 1996; Panel on Educational Technology, 1997). Collaborative work supported by groupware, telecommunications software, and multimedia applications demands both new teaching and new assessment skills. Teachers need sustained pedagogical support in order to successfully integrate them.
Teachers may explore several avenues to find this support -- observing peers who are successful with new technology, consulting with experienced mentor teachers, and establishing a dialogue with other teachers faced with the same challenges. Estimates say that the typical teacher will take between three to six years to fully integrate educational technology into teaching and learning; ongoing changes and advancements in technology may ensure that this process is never fully complete (Panel on Educational Technology, 1997).
One distance education program incorporated pedagogical support by pairing instructional designers with teachers to help them match required course objectives and skills to appropriate software and teaching methods (Shaeffer & Farr, 1993). The instructional designers also monitored the course electronically and responded to teacher concerns as they arose. This coaching of teachers has made significant impact on retention and return rates for both instructors and students. Teachers appreciate this pedagogical support and report changes in their teaching. For many, this is their first opportunity they have had to discuss pedagogy with a colleague.
The most-often recommended support strategy is the designation of full-time support personnel. The number of support personnel varies widely, however, with schools reporting a ratio of support personnel to other staff as high as 1:500. This compares to reports from business of 1:50 (Consortium for School Networking, 1999). The number of support staff will depend on the actual number of workstations, as well as the variety of platforms, operating systems, and different software applications.
Observations from the Telecommunications and Information Infrastructure Assistance Program (TIIAP), now called the Technology Opportunities Program (TOP), indicate that staff roles must be defined clearly in order to provide the best match between the support requirements of the school or district and the qualifications of candidates (Department of Commerce, 1996). These programs have indicated that potential support staff should be able to interact and communicate comfortably with both technical and non-technical staff and should be able to explain technical skills in plain English for staff members at the early adoption stages. As has been mentioned, support staff turnover should be expected but the effects from this turnover can be countered by training staff to understand several job functions so the school can continue to function without serious interruption. One school district provides important categories that should be addressed during the interviewing process of potential support personnel. These relate to the candidates' technical expertise, understanding of technology in an instructional environment, professional development, and Internet knowledge and experience (Smith, 1997).
When a designated support person cannot be hired, many districts rely on teachers with technological experience for technical support (Consortium for School Networking, 1999; Panel on Educational Technology, 1997; Smith, 1997). Unfortunately, this solution can create problems if such teachers are not provided sufficient time and supplies to complete both their teaching and support duties. Without training, these individuals may also have limited impact. This solution has been called by some teachers the "unenviable position of providing troubleshooting and stopgap maintenance" (Fisher & Dove, 1999, p. 5.).
Some schools capitalize on the interest and motivation of students or outside volunteers. In one example (Lowe & Vespestad, 1999), student interest at a middle school supported the formation of a computer club despite the limited technological proficiency by sponsoring teachers. Building from initial interest in basic programming, gaming, and troubleshooting, the program has blossomed, and members provide classroom technical support as well as some technology training of teachers during the day and community members in the evening. Generation www.Y (http://www.genyes.org/index.php) was originally a recipient of a Technology Innovation Challenge Grant Program from the U.S. Department of Education but has flourished to become a model program partnering students with teachers to provide technology support. Begun in Olympia, Washington, Generation www.Y now has partner schools all over the nation.
As with many of the challenges of technology integration, technology itself can offer some solutions to the support dilemma (Fulton, 1996; Panel on Educational Technology, 1997). Computer-mediated communication tools allow teachers to create, share, and evaluate materials online. Teachers can serve as mentors or simply share stories throughout their school, district, or across geographic boundaries. Videotapes and broadcast video options, such as teleconferencing and streaming video, allow teachers to observe successful peers who have faced integration challenges. One such Web-based program classrooms@work/tools@hand, gives teachers a way to hear, see and gain from others' experiences (http://www.netc.org/classrooms@work). Robust online environments can support professional development opportunities to help teachers develop basic maintenance and troubleshooting skills as well as advanced pedagogical strategies -- often with flexible scheduling opportunities and in the convenience of teachers' own homes.

Jamie Bamber
Dr. Tyler Wilson
Deep space is a long way from London, England, but classically trained actor Jamie Bamber has proven adept at navigating both territories. Known to millions as Commander Apollo from the cult phenomenon Battlestar Galactica, which the likes of Rolling Stone and Time deemed the top show on television, Bamber more recently relocated home to London to star in ITV's hit drama Law & Order: UK. He has since returned to Los Angeles for recurring arcs on Body of Proof and TNT's Perception. In addition to Monday Mornings, he also stars in the title role of the crime-thriller John Doe.
Born in Hammersmith, England, Bamber moved with his American father and Northern Irish mother to Paris for the first seven years of its life. It was in Paris that his actress mother who, lacking a daughter, cast him as the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz. Hence began Bamber's penchant for acting.
Bamber attended St. Paul's School in London and eventually Cambridge University, where he earned 1st Class M.A. Honors in modern languages, including French and Italian. While there, he played rugby and performed in numerous theatrical productions. Though Bamber had been acting since childhood, it was not until his acceptance to the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts that he opted to pursue it as his career. Shortly thereafter, he was cast in his first professional role as Archie Kennedy in the acclaimed British miniseries Horatio Hornblower.
Bamber's more recent credits include the French-language film Le Perde de Ma Fille, the lead in Weinstein Co's sequel to the thriller Pulse, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hank's award-winning HBO miniseries Band of Brothers, guest-starring turns on the dramas House, CSI: Miami, Dollhouse, Cold Case, Ghost Whisperer, the BBC telefilm Daniel Deronda, the BBC series Outcasts and ITV's Peak Justice and Ultimate Force. On stage, he has starred as Prince Hal in Henry IV at the Bristol Old Vic and as Mephistopheles in Dr. Faustus.
In his spare time, Bamber is equally as athletic as his Apollo character appeared on screen. He has run the London Marathon and is an avid golfer, skier and tennis player.

Comment posted Coalition for Progess to Govern Argyll & Bute by councillor Dougie Philand.
To assist the perception stated by Arnie and Islay for ever
As Leader of Argyll First Group I do not intend to enter into any further dialogue regarding the statement issued below.
Councillor Donald Kelly has been a Conservative member of the non political Argyll First group since its inception in 2010 The then Leader of the Scottish Conservative party Annabelle Goldie accompanied by Ruth Davidson met with him and discussed his participation within the group. As a result of this meeting Miss Goldie sent a letter to Councillor Kelly which he has in his possession endorsing his participation in Argyll First. The Argyll and Bute Conservative Association requested that Councillor Donald Kelly stand as their candidate for the South Kintyre ward on the clear understanding that if elected he would become a conservative member of the Argyll First Group. During the course of the recent election Councillor Kellys election leaflet made it clear to one and all that he would continue to be a member of Argyll First if elected. I am sure if anyone requires further clarification Councillor Kelly will be only too willing to provide it should anyone wish to contact him directly.

Tønsberg Municipality
important criteria were flexibility, dynamism and integration with existing systems. The price was obviously also a factor that came into play.
"Flexibility and dynamism for us, means that the supplier responds quickly to our requests and is willing to make adjustments based on our needs",
says Information Manager Jan Petter Bergan
The requirements for the solution was that the sites should achieve 5 stars on Norge.no 's evaluation of the availability test, ie, how accessible is the solution for people with e.g hearing- and/or vision impairities
As one of just 155 public sites www.tonsberg.kommune.no/ achieved 5 stars in the fall of 2010, and became the best of the cities in Vestfold. Another requirement was the integration with various existing systems, some of them very local-specific and a little "quirky."
It was highly important that users would not have to deal with many different systems, multiple sign-ins every day to jump between the various systems, and inertia in the system because not all the systems came from the same supplier.
The entire system, the interaction between the underlying document management systems and the Web-publishing section, must be experienced as uniform, and without significant delays. A stable solution that can handle many simultaneous remote users is taken for granted.
"We found that Symfoni was always keen to find the best solution for users. New technical solutions were developed rapidly, even when we could come with new ideas and suggestions quite often", says Information Manager Jan Petter Bergan
So far the only municipality, Tønsberg has chosen to publish political decisions on their web-pages. Case-files for the City Council are usually authored in Akos ( a municipality specific system), while the minutes-of-meetings and decisions is stored in another document management system.
Both are published to the web page by only one touch, often within minutes after the City Council is adjourned . This means that the individual citizen with very few clicks can read about the decisions politicians take on the citizens' behalf.
This, together with access to information on municipal services and prices, helped to give Tønsberg, as one of only eight municipalities, full score in the Consumer Council's major survey of Internet use for Norwegian municipalities.
The web sites of Tønsberg municipality has over 3,000 unique external users every day, and more than 160,000 page hits every week. Many exhibit great loyalty to the sides - which shows that they have succeeded in their project.
A new chat module - online chat with the Service Department - was launched in the fall of 2010.
"We did not want one of those IKEA-lady functions (automated response), but rather that citizens can talk to a real person when they contact us on this channel "
"With Symfoni you will not be forgotten", says Bergan, and puts great emphasis on the continuous follow-up from Sympfoni as a supplier. The annual user forum is also mentioned as an important and relatively unique opportunity to influence the direction for future solutions.

About Oprah Winfrey: Oprah Winfrey (born Orpah Gail Winfrey[1] on January 29, 1954) is an American television host, actress, producer, and philanthropist, best known for her self-titled, multi-award winning talk show, which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in history and was nationally syndicated from 1986 to 2011.[2] She has been ranked the richest African American of the 20th century,[3] the greatest black philanthropist in American history,[4][5] and was for a time the world's only black billionaire.[6][7] She is also, according to some assessments, the most influential woman in the world.[8][9]
Winfrey was born into poverty in rural Mississippi to a teenage single mother and later raised in an inner-city Milwaukee neighborhood. She experienced considerable hardship during her childhood, claiming to be raped at age nine and becoming pregnant at 14; her son died in infancy.[10] Sent to live with the man she calls her father, a barber inTennessee, Winfrey landed a job in radio while still in high school and began co-anchoring the local evening news at the age of 19. Her emotional ad-lib delivery eventually got her transferred to the daytime talk show arena, and after boosting a third-rated local Chicago talk show to first place[6] she launched her own production company and became internationally syndicated.
Credited with creating a more intimate confessional form of media communication,[11] she is thought to have popularized and revolutionized[11][12] the tabloid talk show genre pioneered by Phil Donahue,[11] which a Yale study claims broke 20th century taboos and allowed LGBT people to enter the mainstream.[13][14] By the mid 1990s, she had reinvented her show with a focus on literature, self-improvement, and spirituality. Though criticized for unleashing confession culture, promoting controversial self-help ideas,[15] and an emotion-centered approach[16] she is often praised for overcoming adversity to become a benefactor to others.[17] From 2006 to 2008, her support of Barack Obama, by one estimate, deliveredover a million votes in the close 2008 Democratic primary race.[18]

AISD to Host Public Meeting on Boundary Changes Tuesday
By: BCHP News Staff
Updated: January 29, 2013
The meeting will be held at Dyess Elementary at 6 p.m. and is open to all parents of students affected by the boundary changes.
To see if you are one of those who will be affected by the boundary changes if they are approved, click here to go to the story titled "AISD Proposed Elementary Boundary Maps for 2013." At the bottom of the story is a PDF document with the proposed boundary change maps.
The following are answers to common questions regarding the boundary changes provided by AISD:
1. Why is the district considering changing where my elementary age child goes to school?
The purpose of updating elementary attendance boundaries is to maintain equitable and appropriate student enrollment numbers at the various elementary campuses.
2. Do the proposed elementary boundary updates have any impact on where my student will attend middle school or high school?
The 2013 Proposed Elementary School Boundary updates do not have any impact on current middle school and high school attendance boundaries.
3. If approved, when would the new elementary boundaries become effective?
If approved, the new elementary boundaries would become effective with the beginning of the 2013-14 school year.
4. My student is a fourth grader. Will he be required to change schools next year as a 5th grader due to the boundary updates?
Your 5th grade student, but not his younger siblings, may continue at his former school. However, if your student is currently riding the bus, transportation services will not be provided.
5. My students are currently riding the bus to school. Will they continue to ride the bus even though they go to a different school?
Attendance boundaries are designed to support the neighborhood school concept. If the boundary updates result in your residence being closer to the newly assigned school than the previous school, it is possible your student may not be eligible to ride the bus. However, if your residence remains more than 2 miles from the newly assigned campus your student will remain eligible to ride the bus.
6. My childcare provider is currently in the Jackson attendance boundary. With the proposed change, my childcare provider will be in the Ward attendance boundary. Can my student continue to attend Jackson as a transfer on childcare basis?
Your student will be eligible to transfer to Jackson on a childcare basis if his/her childcare provider is located in the Jackson attendance boundary and all other criteria are met. Beginning with the 2013-14 school year, the district will require notarized confirmation of childcare provider services prior to approving childcare related transfers.
7. How often will the district be adjusting elementary school attendance boundaries?
To the extent possible, students in a given area should not be required to change from a school because of a boundary change more than once at the elementary level.
8. When will we know for sure if the current elementary boundaries are changing?
Once the public hearings are concluded, district administration will take into account the feedback received and prepare the final recommendation to the Superintendent. Upon approval from the Superintendent, the final recommendation will be presented to the Abilene ISD Board of Trustees for its consideration. The Abilene ISD Board of Trustees is tentatively scheduled to review the proposed elementary boundary updates at its February 11th meeting.

The Connecticut shooting jolted the nation and prompted a new debate over gun control. Suspect Adam Lanza brought three weapons inside Sandy Hook Elementary school on December 14 and left a fourth in his car, police said. The weapons taken inside were a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle and two handguns -- a Glock 10 mm and a Sig Sauer 9 mm.
Since then, in Congress and state houses across the nation, lawmakers have grappled with how to curb the threat of gun violence without infringing on the constitutional right to bear arms.
Proposals in Washington would ban assault weapons, expand background check requirements for gun purchasers, and tighten loopholes to further keep guns out of the hands of the wrong people.
The politically powerful National Rifle Association has argued armed guards in schools could prevent shootings such as the one in Connecticut.
Wayne LaPierre, the NRA's chief executive, raised the possibility the Newtown massacre might have been averted had the school employed an armed guard.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a well known crusader who has spent millions of his own money on gun control efforts, called the NRA's idea for armed guards in schools "a paranoid vision of America."
But teachers appear to disagree with Bloomberg's assumption. Almost 90% said an armed police officer would improve safety in their schools, not make them less safe, according to the survey.
Educators also detailed ways that schools have improved security following Newtown.
Sample responses included armed guards, periodic vehicle patrols and in-person visits by police and volunteers to monitor doors.
School officials also said they were adding security entrances, door buzzers to control access and were implementing more frequent lock down drills.
