In the other cases, Kraus said, the special tax is a lien on the property that must be paid. "I think if you look at other states and areas that have problems, it's because they don't have that mechanism available to them," he said.
But even when other taxpayers aren't stuck covering shortfalls, critics say they can still be affected, just less directly. Some academics see the TIF tool as a game of municipal musical chairs, giving to one area by taking from another.
"My own work in Illinois suggests that all TIF does is move things around," said Richard Dye, a professor at the University of Illinois' Institute of Government and Public Affairs. "TIF does not increase the tax base."
Dye pointed to other potential downsides. It can be less transparent than other spending, he said, because key negotiations often happen outside the usual public process. Also, because the money is earmarked from the start, there's no debate about whether public money should be spent on, say, a waterfront park or a school.
And it's often hard to tell whether development truly wouldn't happen without the boost, said David F. Merriman, who has teamed up with Dye on property tax research.
"You get into a kind of game theory thing here: Of course the developer has an incentive to threaten to back out if he doesn't get it," said Merriman, associate director of the University of Illinois' Institute of Government and Public Affairs.
Still, David Versel, a George Mason University researcher and former land-use economics consultant, said there's a simple reason cities and suburbs keep turning to such financing: Although they've historically handled the infrastructure, they can't cover the tab as before.
"The mountain of federal funding that used to support infrastructure is gone," he said.

Quinnipiac Men's Ice Hockey Statistics
ECAC Hockey Standings
QU vs. AIC Photos
HAMDEN, Conn. - The Quinnipiac University men's ice hockey team lost to American International, 2-1, in a non-conference match-up at High Point Solutions Arena at the TD Bank Sports Center. With the loss, Quinnipiac drops to 3-3-1 overall while AIC goes to 3-4-1 on the season.
Mike Dalhuisen (Nymegen, Holland) scored Quinnipiac's only goal with assists going to Ben Arnt (Oakdale, Minn.) and Jordan Samuels-Thomas (South Windsord, Conn.). Freshman goalie Michael Garteig (Prince George, British Columbia) had 16 saves in the loss. AIC's Brad Meisner stopped 39 of Quinnipiac's 40 shots on goal in the win.
AIC's Chris Porter put the Yellow Jackets on top with his second goal of the year. Quinnipiac took control of the puck deep in their own defensive zone, but Nathan Sliwinski got his stick on a pass between two Bobcats and sent the puck over to Alexander MacMillan in the face-off circle to the left of the Bobcats' goal. Porter followed the pass between the face-off circles where MacMillan dropped a pass onto the freshman's tape. Porter flipped a shot on goal that Garteig kicked away but Porter was able to pick up the rebound and slide a shot around Garteig to give AIC a one-goal lead less than seven minutes into the second period.

When your two days are up, check your pedometer to see just how much you've moved and how many calories you burned -- it should give you a sense of accomplishment and a new threshold to aim for. To keep up your new momentum, pick out the exercises that really challenged you and incorporate them immediately into your weekly routine. Says Rosenfeld, "It's important to shift your focus to how exercise makes you feel, rather than its effects on your body or health, which are less immediate."

The final, haunting images of Jack Wheeler come from surveillance cameras in various corners of Wilmington, Del.
He shuffles through a parking garage and a downtown office building. He can't find his car and says someone stole his briefcase. He limps from the picture, holding one shoe, and heads into the cold December night wearing a sport coat.
More than three months later, police still don't know who killed Jack Wheeler or why, or where the murder happened.
Speculation over his death has become a morbid cottage industry. Enter "John Wheeler conspiracy theories" into Google and see what comes up.
Steve Wright owns a sandwich shop in downtown Wilmington near where Wheeler was last seen. Wright doesn't know what happened – other than the publicity was bad for business – but he succinctly sums up all the Internet chatter.
"He worked for the government and he knew too much," Wright said.
Jack Wheeler was a defense consultant, a respected Pentagon insider, a passionate advocate for Vietnam veterans and a valued member of three presidential administrations. At one point, he published an influential paper on biological warfare and was also an authority on cyber warfare, reports say.
Opinionated and driven, he was successful in almost everything he set out to do.
Peninsula residents — make that Peninsula teenagers — saw this potential early on: The Hampton High School Class of 1962 voted their classmate most likely to succeed. A son in a military family, he spent those high school years living at Fort Monroe.
The surveillance tape of the disoriented, disheveled Wheeler is all the more difficult to fathom considering the type of person Wheeler was, friends say.
Should Wheeler be lost in Wilmington? He was only minutes from his historic home in New Castle that overlooks the water, yet he went to the wrong parking garage in an attempt to retrieve his car. His wife, in her only interview (with Slate.com), said she didn't find this unusual. Wheeler had a terrible sense of direction.
But the man known for his laser-like focus appeared confused and rambling, unable to communicate exactly what was bothering him.
The last snippet of tape shows him heading toward a section of town that is considered dicey, city residents say. So besides conspiracy theories, his murder could have been the result of a tragic, but more conventional run-in with a thug.
The publicity has faded since his body was found on Dec. 31, but his friends still wonder.
"People like Jack Wheeler do not get murdered," says one longtime friend, Richard Radez. "To find his body being dumped out of a trash truck in a landfill in Delaware, you say, 'What the hell is this?'"
'A West Point thing'
John Parsons Wheeler III had great potential coming out of Hampton, where he lived at Fort Monroe with his mother, Janet, and his father, an Army colonel known as Big Jack.
He could have gone to Yale University or the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He chose the latter, and his experiences became featured in "The Long, Gray Line," the 1989 classic by Rick Atkinson.

Since the financial crisis, "deregulation" has become a catch-all phrase for everything that went wrong in our financial markets. Unfortunately said deregulation is rarely ever explained, but is rather asserted. To truly inform policy debates, discussions must center on specific instances of deregulation. One such example of banking deregulation that did actually occur was the The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (imagine that, a Democrat Congress and a Democrat President deregulating the banking industry). The heart of Riegle-Neal was to remove barriers to interstate branching.
A recent article in the Journal of Finance looks at the impact of bank branching deregulation on the distribution of income across U.S. States. A working paper version can be found here. The researchers find that as bank deregulation increased competition and improved efficiency, "deregulation materially tightened the distribution of income by boosting incomes in the lower part of the income distribution while having little impact on incomes above the median. Bank deregulation tightened the distribution of income by increasing the relative wage rates and working hours of unskilled workers." The bottom line is that the increased competition that resulted from deregulation disproportionately benefited those on the bottom of the income distribution. As Washington continues to pile additional new regulations upon the banking industry, we should bear in mind that much of the impact of increased regulation might be felt by those least able to bear it.
The extent to which regulatory barriers in banking benefits the rich at the expense of the poor is also illustrated in a forthcoming article, again in the Journal of Finance. In this article, the authors find in the early 20th century, counties where the elite had disproportionately large land holdings had fewer banks per capita, with costlier credit, and more limited access. The authors see this as suggestive that elites restrict financial development in order to limit access to finance, and hence maintain existing income inequalities.
One of the lessons I take away from these papers is that we need to examine banking regulation/deregulation as it actually occurs and is implemented, and not how we believe some all knowing, benevolent government would impose it. The odds seem to me that the more extensive is banking regulation, the more likely it is to be captured by economic elites and narrow interests.
The District of Columbia is providing tax incentives for a parking garage at a new Harris Teeter grocery store. This follows a District subsidized parking garage boondoggle that opened at a Columbia Heights mall in 2008. Whether it's a parking garage, bike rack, or any other commercial transportation activity, government should remain neutral. If Harris Teeter believes a 150-car parking garage is in the best interests of the company's bottom line, it should pay for it itself. Taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook. If the District or any other city wants to encourage economic development, it should seek lower taxes across the board, and remove costly regulatory barriers.

Burkina Faso
As in many other countries, people with disabilities in Burkina Faso suffer from a lack of recognition and are poorly integrated into their communities. Although efforts have been made to change this situation, they remain on the margins of society and live in advanced poverty.
Handicap International's work in Burkina Faso is focused on four key areas:
- helping organise an efficient and coordinated access system for rehabilitation care;
- the implementation of a care-management service for patients with lymphatic filariasis within the framework of a national programme to eliminate the disease (the leading disabling disease in Burkina);
- promoting the inclusion of children with disabilities into mainstream schools in partnership with the Ministry for Basic Education; Medical case-management
- Promoting the rights of people with disabilities and capacity-building
Based on the Burkina Faso programme, initiatives were also launched in Niger in 2006. The site currently supports disabled people's organisations in Niamey and organisations engaged in the fight against mines in the north of the country

Using discrete choice experiments for environmental valuation
AbstractThis paper provides with a review of the state of the art of environmental valuation with discrete choice experiments (DCE). The growing body of literature on this field serves to emphasise the increasing role that DCE are playing in environmental decision making in the last decade. The paper attempts to cover the full process of undertaking a choice experiment, including survey and experimental design, econometric analysis of choice data and welfare analysis. The research on this field is found to be intense, although many challenges are put forward (e.g. choice task complexity and cognitive effort, experimental design, endogeneity or model uncertainty). Reviewing the state of the art of DCE serves to draw attention to the main challenges that this methodological approach will need to overcome in the coming years and to identify the frontiers in discrete choice analysis.

Traffic Violation Leads to Pursuit and Apprehension of Kaplan Fugitive
Troop I - Two Kaplan men, including a wanted probation violator with a violent criminal history, are in custody this morning following a traffic stop and pursuit yesterday evening in Vermilion Parish.
Yesterday shortly before 6:00 p.m., Troopers with Louisiana State Police Troop I stopped a 2002 Saab passenger car for speeding on LA Highway 92 near Noah Road. The driver, 32-year-old Robert Sinegal of Kaplan, LA, pulled over and provided Troopers with a false identification. The Trooper recognized Sinegal as being wanted by Louisiana Probation and Parole. Before he could be taken into custody, Sinegal ran back to his vehicle and fled from Troopers. Troopers pursued Sinegal on several highways leading to Kaplan where Sinegal and his passenger, 54-year-old Lawrence Julien, abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot to a residence in the 800 block of Lemaire Street in Kaplan.
With the assistance of the Kaplan Police Department and the Vermilion Parish Sheriff's Office, a perimeter was setup and State Police SWAT was contacted. A short time later, Julien surrendered to State Police without incident. At about 10:40 p.m., Sinegal was located under a house and taken into custody by State Police SWAT personnel.
Both men were taken to the Vermilion Parish Jail and booked. Julien was booked for resisting arrest, interfering with the duties of a State Trooper and criminal conspiracy. Sinegal was booked for a probation violation warrant, speeding 95 in a 55, resisting arrest, flight from an officer, driving with a suspended license, littering, reckless operation of a motor vehicle and simple criminal damage to property.

Following a high-speed chase and then standoff, Robert Senegal, 27, of Kaplan was arrested on Monday evening.
Senegal was brought out from underneath a house on Lemaire Ave. covered in mud and wearing only boxer shorts.
State Police say Senegal was under the influence and they were combing the area around Lemaire Ave., shortly following his arrest around 11 p.m., in search of any weapons.
He is being charged with speeding 95 in a 55, aggravated flight, resisting arrest, violation of parole, simple criminal damage to property and reckless operation.
State police say their pursuit of Senegal began with a routine traffic stop on Highway 700 in Maurice. Senegal allegedly fled from troopers to Kaplan with a male passenger, Lawrence St. Julien of Kaplan.
Once in Kaplan, State Police say, Senegal fled and St. Julien was arrested. State Police are waiting to release St. Julien's charges and age.
Residents of Lemaire Ave. say they were told by State Police to stay in their homes. State Police say they had to evacuate two houses, including the house Senegal was allegedly hiding underneath. All residents have since been let back out of their house and the evacuated residents are back home.
State Police say neither Senegal nor St. Julien had any injuries at the time of their arrest.

Aizan is an automated system that will place a call home if a student has been marked absent in one or more classes even if a note, a call or an e-mail has been sent by a parent. Parents must confirm the reason for the student's absence by leaving a message on the school's answering machine or by sending a note with the student the next day for a full day absence. If NO contact is made by the parent, the student is automatically considered truant for 4 classes. Notes need to be sent with a student if that student has an appointment during the school day. Please remember that students must sign in and out.
If your future plans include a family vacation of 15 or more consecutive school days, please notify the Principal/Vice Principal in writing of your plans, in accordance with Ministry of Education guidelines. Please refer to Regulation 298 Section 23.2 of the Education Act for more detail. For shorter vacations, we would ask that parents and students complete our Request for Temporary Withdrawal form so that teachers are aware of absences and can provide work for the time missed. Please be aware of the Exam Schedule for January and June ,which is published by the Board in the early spring, and plan any vacations so they do not coincide with exams. (These dates are posted on the Board website and in the Norwell Student Handbook.)
The Harvest Table is a local butcher shop specializing in local meat and other goods, located in the heart of rural Ontario at Parker.

Their focus is on local meat and quality cuts, prepared without additives, preservatives, or fillers. There is a line of nitrate free goods as well as gluten free products. The retail outlet has a wide variety of beef, pork, chicken, lamb, turkey, veal and fish as well as other grocery items including jam, honey, cheese, fresh baking, dressings, bbq sauces and so much more.
The following is how you, your relatives, friends and neighbours can support some Norwell students all year by simply making purchases at The Harvest Table. When you purchase goods at the store or come to enjoy a meal at the Bistro, identify yourself as a Norwell supporter and the store will donate a portion to Norwell's Athletes in the School Community Work Transition Program (SCWTP). For every $50.00 purchase, The Harvest Table donates 3% to the school, and for every $100.00 purchase the donation will be 5%. The store is located at the corner of Wellington Roads 7 and 12. The store is open Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6 pm, and Saturday 8 am until 5 pm. Check out the store at www.theharvesttable.ca or call 519-638-5000. Please share this information.
The Upper Grand District School Board does not provide accident insurance coverage for student injuries that occur on school premises or during school activities.

This program offers a variety of plans and benefits at affordable annual prices.
Student Accident Insurance or Extended Health and Dental coverage is strongly recommended for all students, especially students participating in extra-curricular athletics.

This has been our goal since the company's inception in 2005 and remains our goal well into the future.
We're here because you're online!
Over the past 10 years the online world of E-commerce has grown considerably, and in every conceivable way. As E-commerce and m-Commerce (mobile commerce) continue to grow, with billions of dollars of transactions each year, it also has become more difficult for online retailers to navigate the management and technological difficulties inherent to a maturing industry. MerchantAdvantage is committed to helping online retailers manage their business in this ever changing environment focusing on marketing channel management software tools that allow the merchant to take control of their online retail channels, marketing strategies, and IT solutions.
MerchantAdvantage provides the large online merchants and marketing/advertising agencies the business tools to manage their marketing campaigns, product catalog feeds, and customer feedback at a price they can afford. MerchantAdvantage provides merchants the functionality of expensive third party solutions at a fraction of the cost. This allows our clients to take full advantage of the online marketplace.
We also design our business systems and software to work easily with other applications so the online retailer never has to worry about missing out on next generation product developments. We call it being vendor agnostic. This approach ensures that our clients always work affordably with companies and applications that best suit their needs. We never lock merchants into long term contracts and provide the most up to date industry information through our research department, webinars, and newsletters to help large online merchants and marketing/advertising agencies gain the advantage they need to grow their business.
We champion the mid-sized to large businesses ensuring they understand that sophisticated business solutions are available and affordable.
MerchantAdvantage introduced Channel Management with Chanalytics(sm) in 2005 to support any online storefront technology. To find out more about these tool based marketing products and services, please review our Products section.
The programming and technical team at MerchantAdvantage has worked together for over 10 years in online development. The team has received numerous awards and has produced thousands of applications.

Remarks of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to the Inter-American Development Bank
As I listened to [IDB] President Moreno's remarks, I was struck not by how different the U.S. education system is but rather by how many educational challenges the U.S. shares with Latin America and Caribbean nations.
Remarks of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan at the Fourth White House Tribal Nations Conference
Thank you, Mr. Hill, for delivering that wonderful opening invocation. I can't tell you how pleased and honored I am to join you again for the fourth White House Tribal Nations Conference.
Remarks of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan at the Education Trust Conference
This is a day of celebration in so many ways. I'm thrilled for our nation, and I'm thrilled for our nation's school children, that President Obama has been re-elected.
Remarks of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan at the TIME Higher Education Summit
It's great to be at the TIME Summit on Higher Education with such a distinguished group of leaders. All of you have thought long and hard about the future of higher education. And I'll try to be brief before we turn to the panel discussion.
Moving Forward, Staying Focused
Three weeks ago, we began a cross-country bus tour in California to visit schools, meet with educators and students, get feedback and listen, and generally take the pulse of people after nearly four years in office.
Closing The Opportunity Gap
Thank you for that generous introduction, Dennis [Van Roekel].
One of the most extraordinary opportunities in my job is that I get to visit hallowed ground. I get to stand in the footsteps of giants who fought and won battles for equal educational opportunity. And so it is today.
Change is Hard
I asked to speak with you today because, after three-plus years in Washington, it's a good time to take stock of where we are as a country – and where we are going.
Remarks of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to the SHEEO Higher Education Policy ConferenceThanks very much, Rahm, for that generous introduction.
I'm not sure what I've done to deserve such a glowing introduction. But I have a hunch that Rahm will let me know in a few minutes. He said something about wanting to have, quote, "a frank exchange of views."
Testimony of Secretary Duncan before the Senate Labor, Health and Human Services and Education Appropriations Subcommittee
I want to thank the Chairman, the Ranking Member, and other Members of this Subcommittee for your support. Over the past three years, we've protected students at risk while investing in education reform that supports bold and courageous leadership at the both state and local level.
Remarks by U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan at the National Academy Foundation NEXT Conference
[Speaker may have deviated from prepared remarks.]
Thank you, J.D., for the warm welcome. Good afternoon, everyone.
It's a pleasure to join you all in marking the National Academy Foundation's 30-year record of impact, in states all across America.

Love this rug! The quality is very good and like the texture, softer than expected. I was hesitate about buying a rug online because I wasn't able to feel it and see the actual colors, but this turned out to be very similar to the description and picture.
I placed carpet in my living room which is not a high traffic area. In less than a week there was loose threads and huge pulls all over it. I have never seen this in any other area rugs I have used. I replaced the rug with the 10 yr old one previously used in the same area. I am very unhappy with the purchase and when I complained about the purchase I was told to return it. I am handicapped and live alone. It is impossible for me to take it somewhere to be shipped back. It was a waste of money and is rolled up and stored in a closet.
When I got this rug I thought it was absolutely beautiful. The rug was perfect for my living room, however, after two days it was pulling and fuzz building up on it. This rug is awful. You cannot even walk across it without it showing pulls in the yarn. The fuzz build up on the rug is ridiculous. I have only had the rug for a short period of time and it looks like I have had it for years. I would not recommend this rug because it pulls too easily and has a constant fuzz on it that you cannot get rid off unless you shave the rug on a daily basis.
We are very happy with the rug. The colors are exact and the quality is as I would expect. You can use the rug inside or outside the house, so it is very versatile.
In less than a month, it began to pill and has this continual layer of fuzz on the top. We have 2 dogs so I'm not sure if that contributes to the problem although its not like my dogs chew or play with the rug. Dog hair and other normal dust and dirt gets embedded in the fuzz and is really hard to get out. After 20 minutes of vacuuming the rug alone I still see stuff. I was so disappointed in this product. I get disgusted looking at it and finally after 11 months with this rug I can't stand it anymore and am looking for a new one.
Love this rug. Going back for another one as backup in case my kids trash this one.

Statement regarding the Original Score of "The Princess and the Frog"
Beverly Hills, CA (January 12, 2010) — After nominations ballots and reminder lists for the Original Score category were mailed to members of the Academy's Music Branch (on December 28), questions were raised regarding the eligibility of the score of "The Princess and the Frog."
On Monday, January 11, the Music Branch Executive Committee met to discuss the score's status. Based on the committee's interpretation of the rules, it was determined that the film is not eligible in the score category, though four songs from the movie remain eligible for consideration.
The relevant language is contained in Rule 16, Section II, Paragraph E:
...scores diluted by the use of tracked themes or other preexisting music, diminished in impact by the predominant use of songs, or assembled from the music of more than one composer shall not be eligible.
The tabulators at PricewaterhouseCoopers have been instructed to disregard any votes cast for the Original Score of "The Princess and the Frog." The movie remains eligible in all other categories for which it qualified.

Physical Therapist Assistant
Physical Therapy is a direct form of professional medical care and a vital part of the total health care for patients who have temporary or permanent disability due to pain, injury, disease, birth defect, or loss of limb. While the Physician maintains life, the Physical Therapist and the Physical Therapist Assistant help maintain the quality of life. In some cases, the physical therapist may help make the patient "better than new". In others, as in geriatrics or athletics, the Physical Therapist can help maintain the patient's health or prevent severe disability. Physical Therapy, therefore, is a vital resource available to the physician in the total care of the patient.
Always, the goal of the Physical Therapist and the Physical Therapist Assistant is to help the patient enjoy a full life, living it more independently or with less pain.
What is a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA)?
A Physical Therapist Assistant is a skilled health care provider who works under the supervision of a Physical Therapist. Their duties include: assisting the physical therapist in the application of treatment interventions in a physical therapy plan of care, training patients in proper exercises and activities of daily living, and reporting patient's responses to the physical therapist.
What are the Admission Requirements for Becoming a PTA?
FTCC Physical Therapist Assistant Program requires the following high school or college prerequisites: 1 year of chemistry, biology, and Algebra I and II with a grade of "C" or better. Students who enjoy the sciences, especially the human sciences, enjoy helping others, and enjoy problem solving may find physical therapy well suited for them. Interested persons should volunteer or observe in a physical therapy clinic to confirm their interest.

Paxton - A Paxton man is convicted of conspiracy to distribute cocaine.
Eddi Ramirez, 30, is guilty of overseeing a cocaine distribution network in Decatur and Springfield. The operation called "Tres Ciudades" took down Ramirez, and 18 others involved for trafficking large amounts of cocaine.
Police arrested Ramirez, and his team in August of 2012. The investigation focused on a drug network that distributed cocaine in several Central Illinois locations. His couriers ran most of the business out of a stash house on the north side of Decatur.
Ramirez will be sentenced in May.

Rupert Murdoch, fount of all evil, is rumored to be working with Apple on an iPad/tablet only newspaper titled The Daily. The rumored news app would cost $0.99 a week for a daily broadsheet, powered by a staff of 100 "twentysomething" journalists centered on the 26th floor of the News Corp. Building on Sixth Avenue.
Described as "The New York Post Goes to College", it's an attempt to capitalize on the growing tablet market, and assumedly the hip young things that read newspapers on it.
A beta is expected by Christmas, and the full iPad edition in early 2011, and it's rumored to have some sort of push-powered content delivery system.
This is still very much a rumor right now, which some take issue with, and the NYT rightly asks "how do you put out an original national newspaper every day with a staff of only 100?"
The big question I have is why are they targeting twentysomethings? I'm sorry, but as a population, they don't read newspapers, even on the iPad. I bet you that most of the iPad newspaper readers are holdovers from the print editions, with the younger crowd most likely to source their info from a number of sources and news aggregators.

The UK Running Awards is an annual ceremony celebrating the best of running and its culture around the country - from best fun runs and running events and marathons to best running shoes and the most innovative running apps.
The closing date for nominations is Tuesday, January 14. All votes are free and the nominees with the fewest votes will then be eliminated, leaving a small shortlist of finalists in each category.
Cllr Ann Crimmings, Mayor of Rhondda Cynon Taf and also Chair of the Nos Galan Committee and Secretary of Aberdare Valley Amateur Athletics Club, is urging the public to get behind the Nos Galan Road Races nomination.
She said: "It is brilliant news that our annual New Year's Eve event in Mountain Ash is once again getting national recognition with this nomination at the UK Running Awards.
"These awards celebrate the cream of the entire running industry in the UK - to even be nominated at such a prestigious awards ceremony is testimony to the success of the Nos Galan Road Races.
"First staged in 1958, the Nos Galan Road Races are a proud and rich part of our heritage. They have put the town of Mountain Ash, indeed the whole of Rhondda Cynon Taf and Wales, on the map.
"The races have brought so much pleasure to so many people over the years - now is your chance to say thank you and give something back. All it takes in one simple vote that will cost you nothing other than a few minutes of your time."

Some readers get confused about the relationship between the editorial page and the rest of the newspaper, especially since the term "editorial" is often used to describe everything in the Press-Herald that is not advertising.
But the news operation is completely separate from the editorial (opinion) page.
The two do not coordinate coverage or influence the others' judgments.
Even more separated from the news and editorial is the advertising side of our publication.
If you want to highlight your business, you need to speak with the advertising staff. For coverage of a society or civic event, the newsroom is the way you want to go.
Both can be reached by calling the paper at 377-1866.
Press-Herald cheers, jeers or observations are made without consultation with the news operation, and Press-Herald reporters are expected to cover the issues without regard to the paper's editorial stance on the matter.
This "separation of church and state," as it is sometimes called, is a cherished tradition at newspapers and helps protect the integrity of both operations.
Editorials represent the official view of the Minden Press-Herald as a community institution, which is why they aren't signed by individual writers.
Columns or Op-Eds (literally, opposite of the editorials) represent the views of individual columnists or writers.
Unlike the editorials, these are designed to present a broad array of views from Press-Herald staff reports as well as national and local columnists.
The Minden Press-Herald welcomes unsolicited op-ed offerings. A photo of the author is preferred to run with the piece.
The Editor, The Minden Press-Herald
203 Gleason Street
Minden, LA 71055
Letters to the editor represent the views of individual readers and ideally feature a broad range of opinions. The Press-Herald reserves the right to edit letters for space or clarity. The Press-Herald also reserves the right to reject any letter
They must be signed and include a daytime phone number for verification.

Jacks Find A Way Against Air Force; Now 2-0 In WWC
BROOKINGS, SD — For the second consecutive week, South Dakota State (3-3, 2-0 WWC) needed the final two matches to win a Western Wrestling Conference showdown. Alex Kocer (149) and Cody Pack (157) each won tightly-contested bouts to seal the 18-14 win over Air Force (7-5, 0-2 WWC).
"I'm glad to see the fight we had today," head coach Chris Bono said. "It's great to come away with a win and see the guys continue to buy in."
Trailing 14-12 entering the 149 match, Kocer user a three-point nearfall at 3:17 to tie Natrelle Demison 4-4 entering the third period. Demison chose a neutral position, but gave up a takedown to Kocer at 5:08 to solidify the win for SDSU. With riding time, Kocer won, 7-4.
In the winner-take-all 157-pound bout, No. 18 Cody Pack came out on the offensive, recording a takedown and three-point nearfall at 1:38 to take a 5-0 lead, which stood until the third period. In the final stanza, Kreimier recorded an escape and takedown to close within one point, but Pack answered with an escape and takedown of his own at 6:50. Kreimier would escape again in the closing seconds, as Pack held on to win, 8-5.
"Cody is our guy and he came through in a big spot for us," Bono said of Pack's 8-5 win. "He has really bought in and the results are coming because of it."
SDSU opened up a 9-0 lead after Joe Brewster (165), John Nething II (174) and Ben Schwery (184) all won their respective matches.
After dropping the 197-pound bout, J.J. Everard recorded a takedown in overtime to win, 6-4.
Air Force would battle back by winning three consecutive matches, including two major decisions, to take a 14-12 lead before Kocer and Pack answered.
SDSU opens February with a pair of duals in Cedar Falls, Iowa on Feb. 1 against Northern Iowa and Ohio.

O.K. all you media-critics. This one's for you.
During a recent seminar with a bunch of county officials, the group will remain nameless to protect the innocent as Jack Webb from the old TV show Dragnet use to say, they were asked to write one sentence on their attitude toward the news media.
Fasten your safety belts. The group acted as if this was a once in a life time opportunity to get all this venom out of their systems and vent they did.
"The news media is ruining the world as we know it!"
"A necessary evil."
"They don't' really care about the truth."
"They twist the truth."
"Biased and the facts are irrelevant."
"They are not to be trusted."
"They tell the story they want to tell."
"They blow stuff out of proportion."
"The news media seeks shock value."
"Hunts for dirt."
"They put words in your mouth."
Good thing they weren't asked to write two sentences!
Now this was not a room full of malcontents off of their meds. These were law-abiding citizens who are on the other end of media coverage and they supposedly speak from experience. Some did acknowledge that the news media had an important assignment of keeping an eye on public officials but those folks were probably relatives of some reporter out there.
Well needless to say there was not enough time to explain away each beef but the public belief that the media is biased was kicked around.
Do some in the media have an agenda and a slant?
You bet and they appear on Fox and MSNBC.
But, believe this or not, and you won't, most MSM types are trying to call them as they see them. And rather than reach a conclusion based on one story, readers should consider the "body of work" that a reporter writes, the audience was told.
Fact is if every political correspondent was as right or left wing as the public suspects, they'd be in trouble. First, one side or the other would never talk to them which would prevent them from getting the whole story.
And then a second thing would happen; they'd be out of work.
As for the county official who characterized the news media as, "Important but irritating, (sp?) some beleagured correspondents might actually take that as a compliment although it was probably not intended that way.

While taking Elementary Chinese, I had the opportunity to practice traditional Chinese calligraphy. This was my absolute favorite part of class because it shows that there is not only a difference in the way words are written (characters versus letters), but also a difference in the method of how the language is written. Calligraphy is a traditional part of Chinese history and culture, and being able to practice it myself made me respect that aspect of the Chinese culture even more. It is no easy feat to write using a calligraphy brush!
