Follow Your Dreams
October is College Knowledge month! Today Commissioner Cassellius joined students at Washington Technology Magnet's College Center as they submited their first college application. Most of these students are the first person in their family to apply to a technical, 2-year, or 4-year college. All over the state, schools are hosting events like the one today. Celebrate the month by encouraging someone you know to follow their dreams!
Leading the Way -- Year After Year
This year, 131 schools are designated as Reward schools and 217 schools are classified as Celebration Eligible. Reward and Celebration Eligible schools are high-performing in the areas of student test scores, student growth, achievement gap reduction and graduation rates, and receive federal funds for children from low-income families. Forty of the Reward schools have received the honor three times and 20 have received it four times. "Some of our Reward schools are truly beating the odds, and many of them are doing it year after year," said Commissioner Cassellius. View Rewards schools list. Visit web page for more.
Pathways to Postsecondary - Phase II
Last year, the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) collaborated to offer several "Pathways to Postsecondary" summits across the state. This year, your team is invited to explore opportunities for new or expanded partnerships between secondary and postsecondary systems to better prepare your students to be career- and college-ready. The next summit will be held on Oct. 28 in Marshall. Registration remains open for the Dec. 4 summit in Rochester and Dec. 5 summit in St. Cloud. Visit Ready, Set, Go to register online.
Facts and Information About Ebola
The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) is working with the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) to provide information about the Ebola virus to schools. And though, officials and health experts continue to stress that the risk to Minnesotans is currently very low, Governor Dayton and and MDH Commissioner Ehlinger have convened leaders in the health, human services and public safety sectors to develop prevention and, if needed, rapid response plans for our state. Visit the MDH Website for additional information. Or call the Ebola Information Line: 651-201-3920 or 1-800-657-3903.

GOODS: Kitsilano's "Bistro Pastis" Bound To Casablanca For The Month Of April
March 28, 2011
The GOODS from Bistro Pastis
Vancouver, BC | From April 5th through May 1st get in touch with your inner Ilsa and Rick and join Bistro Pastis for a journey to Casablanca to explore the cuisine of Morocco. Briefly a French protectorate (1906 – 1956); Morocco's cuisine reflects the cross-pollination of flavours and ingredients acquired through a culinary history that includes influences taken from Arab, Iberian, Berber, Jewish, Ottoman, Spanish and French culinary traditions.

Smoke Break #825: Are Terrifying Robotic "SmartBirds" Poised To Take To The Skies?
This makes me ever so seriously anxious. I can deal with regular robots, no problem, but I draw the line at flying ones…
Robotics company Festo has presented numerous ingenious flying machines inspired by nature, but they have reached new heights with the SmartBird. Weighing a mere 450 grams and with a wingspan of 1.96 meters, the SmartBird mimics bird flight with surprisingly natural ease and grace. It can also takeoff, fly, and land autonomously, all while making in-flight adjustments. This robot also shirks plane-like control surfaces like flaps, instead using its flexible body to control its direction in flight.
Via Max Eddy at Geekosystem:
Seeing this, I can't help but think of Leonardo da Vinci and how he labored to create a mechanical device that would mimic bird flight. A shame that he never could see the amazing creations we're now capable of.
Nevermind da Vinci. What would Alfred Hitchcock say?
Seen In Vancouver #284: A Sneak Peek At The Upcoming "Ki" Restaurant's Interior…
March 26, 2011
It may look like a hive of construction mayhem on the outside, but the interior of Ki Restaurant appears to be very nearly finished (shot taken this morning). This is the bar/lounge area at the building's glass prow that juts toward Market in the Shangri-La.
Foreign Intelligence Brief #365: On Neon Green Oceans And Killing Moammar Gadhafi
With NATO considering a broader role in Libya, Obama maintains that an assassination of Moammar Gadhafi is out of the question. Too bad that intransigent, decades-old dictatorships only ever topple when the dictator in question is either dead or given safe passage to a Venezuelan lap dance. With the latter out of the question (hello criminal court, frozen assets, etc), it makes me wonder what NATO's "larger" role will be. Get ready to be an accessory to murder, Canada!
The immorality of state-sanctioned killing juxtaposed, just when you thought you couldn't loathe him and his thugs any more.
But wait? Why did the US hurl over a hundred cruise missiles into Libya at $1 million apiece, killing soldiers and airmen just following orders, when a two buck bullet would have accomplished exactly what it was that they really wanted in the first place, ie. regime change? Good ol' Gerald Ford and his 1976 Executive Order #11905, Section 5, Article H:
No employee of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, political assassination.
Isn't it just astounding that George W. Bush didn't rescind that!?
When asked for his position on killing Gadhafi, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said: "Can I do it?"
I made that up.
Meanwhile, Syria's Bashar al-Assad does his best to do his worst. Sigh.
Ashamed of last night's drunken social media performance? There's an app for that.
The thing that you never want to stop working stops working.
On paywalls and the economics of modern reporting.
Lastly, and I don't mean to scare the living shit out of you, but radiation has spiked 1,250 times higher than normal in the waters off the Japanese coast. The story goes on to say that there is no cause to worry, so…er…don't worry?
Opening Soon: First Look Inside Dale Mackay's New "Ensemble"
March 26, 2011
To follow up on the news that Scout broke last week on the coming of Ensemble, I met up with Dale Mackay off Robson yesterday at the location in the old Corner Suite space at 850 Thurlow (I realise the brand is spelled with a lower case "e" - as in ensemble – but I reserve the right to sanctimoniously ignore that in the dickish name of the English language).

Zulu Report: Everything That You Should Listen To This Week
Our friends over at Kitsilano's Zulu Records once again present their weekly Scout feature, the Zulu Report. Within, staff from the West 4th music store provide The Track, the song that is on heavy rotation that week; The Playlist, which is pretty self-explanatory; The Gig, the must see show of the week; and The Glance, a view ahead to music on the horizon. From their ears to yours, enjoy…
The Track
Black Night live at Bonnaroo by The Dodos, from their fourth album No Color (Frenchkiss)
For their fourth outing the once three man team of The Dodos are stripped back to the two man magic that made us fall in love with their breakout album Visiter back in '07. A lot of people had a problem with Time To Die, and I hate to lay the blame but it seems like somehow vibraphonist Keaton Snyder might have ruined the delicate chemistry of this idiosyncratic folk-wha? group. No Color benefits from a focus on memorable acoustic melodies, as well as Neko Case lending her vocals to several songs. Call it a return to form or call it a further progression down the twisted road to wherever The Dodos call home. Either way, the boys are back. Read more
Seen In Vancouver #283: Hotel Georgia & Hawksworth Still On Track For May Opening
This morning I beheld the Rosewood Hotel Georgia and its adjacent mixed use tower rising in the sun. Both are nearly complete. The hotel, not incidentally the future home of David Hawksworth's eponymous Hawksworth restaurant, will sport some 155 guest rooms and suites when it opens on May 7th. Check after the leap for a look at the rooftop as well as a graphic rendering of the Prohibition Jazz Lounge (latter reminds me of the basement bar under the Old Seelbach in Louisville, Kentucky)… Read more
Smoke Break #824: Getty's John Moore On Epic Battles In Libya And The Arab Revolts…
March 25, 2011
Via Nerdcore:
Photographer John Moore is no stranger to combat. As a member of an Associated Press team in 2005, he shared a Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography for coverage of the war in Iraq and he's done extended stints in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, South Africa, Mexico and Nicaragua and elsewhere in the last 20 years.
Yet despite his relative comfort with being on the frontlines, Moore told the NewsHour from his hotel room in Cairo that his latest assignment -a six-week trip that took him to the uprisings in Egypt, Bahrain and Libya – might have been his most dangerous. Moore recorded the interview for us after sneaking out of Benghazi, Libya en route back to his home in Denver.
Tea & Two Slices: On The Many Things That Taxes Do and Election Season Madness
March 25, 2011
by Sean Orr | Newly minted B.C. Conservative candidate fired. And they're off!
Meanwhile, a vote for Harper is a vote for Nickelback! Unfortunately, that's probably not going to be a huge deterrent for most people.
Don't let fat tax expand gov't waistline. Maureen Bader is a waste of space. Why the fuck wouldn't you tax things that are bad for you and cost the health care system billions of dollars? She's so anti-tax that she's forgotten what taxes are for.
Victims of fatal police shootings may have been suicidal: expert. You could just tell that he wanted that bullet by the way he dressed, man. He was asking for it: expert.
Fort Nelson residents keen to see 'town bully' get his day in court. When photos on news articles accidentally double as contemporary art.
Pro tip: If you're going to make a satirical news story, try and make it more unbelievable than "Republicans Introduce Legislation Redefining Pi as Exactly 3". Why? Because the majority of internet commenters think it's real.
Actual headline: 'Sexy noises, too much, all the time'.
Open Letter to Globe and Mail. Oh snap!
Another one bites the dust: A Vancouver nightlife institution (Lotus Hotel) is set to close. Plus W2 Storyeum closes on May 1st. So that sucks…

Smoke Break #823: "Vigilante Vigilante" Documentary On The Battle For Expression
March 24, 2011
Check this trailer for Vigilante Vigilante, and upcoming film that documents the struggle between street artists and the few who take it upon themselves to blot out their work in Frisco/Oakland, CA.
A new breed of crime-fighter now stalks the urban landscape: the anti-graffiti vigilante. These dedicated blight warriors stop at nothing to rid their neighborhoods and cities of street art, stickers, tags, and posters. Yet several of these vigilantes have become the very menace they set out to eliminate. In their relentless attempt to stamp out graffiti, they've turned to illegally and destructively painting other people's property. VIGILANTE VIGILANTE is the story of two filmmakers who set out to expose these mysterious characters and discover a battle of expression that stretches from the streets to academia.

Windows 7
Windows 7 can't connect wirelessly.
I've never posted at one of these places before, so please forgive any etiquette related mistakes I make. I should also say that I'm not that great with computers, so it's possible I might not immediately understand suggests. I'm not at home right now, so I can't remember a few details, but I'm sure I could dredge them up later. Basically, this is my issue:
I connect to the internet wirelessly fine at home, using HP dv6 (something). No problems there. However, when I'm at my mother's house, the trouble begins. If I am the only one on the internet, it works. However, if another computer is using the network, mine drops out constantly and often refuses to connect for hours. Sometimes it reconnects and tells me it has 'limited' connectivity. When I diagnose the connection, it tries to tell me that the problem is with the wireless adaptor reaching the router. The network adapter is an Atheros something or other, and the modem is Billion something (sorry for the vagueness).
The router is password protected (WPA2-Personal), but I know that the details I'm using are fine.
The adapter driver is the most recent one possible.
Any idea what the problem could be?
Thanks for your time!

Welcome to the forum Hedonistic, I'm sure that when the experts see your post they should be able to help.
Could you help them out by posting back with as much information as possible, like the make and model of the computers that are using the connection, the make and model of the router, what operating system do all the computers use and what firewalls and anti-virus programs are installed.
I know this may seem a lot of information to give but in the end it saves time if the experts have all the details at once instead of having to go backwards and forwards asking questions, your problem will be fixed much quicker then.
While you wait for more help can I suggest you have a look around the Tutorial section,there is a wealth of information and problem fixes in there.

The case for investing
Finance operations
The kind of value derived from investing in finance operations depends on where finance is along the maturity curve. Those lacking core fundamentals might see important improvements in financial misstatement mitigation and data integrity. Those who already have the fundamentals covered can focus on improving decision support capabilities and driving sustainable cost savings.
Unfortunately, issues in finance operations rarely hit the C-suite agenda until one of several things happens. A CFO wakes up worried about the risk of a reporting misstatement. A company discovers its finance cost structure is badly out of line or business leaders lack confidence in their financial information and conclude that they don't have the support they need to make smart, fast decisions. Otherwise, leadership tends to stick with what has been working, even if it means sacrificing the speed and accuracy they'd really like to have. Yet when something goes wrong, companies will move mountains to clean up their data, upgrade processes and build a clear line of sight back into and through their financial information.
For those with solid fundamentals in place, a key to improved performance lies in deconstructing processes into individual building blocks – policies, technology, talent, data–and then rebuilding them for more effective operations. While some finance teams have the time,talent and understanding to take on that challenge in-house, many do not.
No matter where you're starting from, it's important to have the end goal in mind, whether focusing on quality and reliability of your financial information or efficiency gains and build a plan with the right skills and resources behind it to succeed.
How we can help
Deloitte is widely recognised for its strengths in finance operations - and with good reason. We have access to a rare combination of talent and experience needed to work across accounting, finance, tax and technology with a full-court view - to help organisations in their efforts to properly manage the details without losing sight of the big picture. To help business leaders get what they need. To help effectively manage risk so you can sleep better - or reduce costs so you can look better. But achieving lasting results from process improvements in finance isn't easy. It requires a unique blend of innovative thinking and disciplined follow-through. That's our strong suit and in the industry our capabilities are unparalleled. We have access to:
- Financial business process knowledge and experience
- Complex and large shared services expertise
- Market leading audit and accounting capabilities
- Performance management and financial ERP depth
- Tax compliance, technology and process knowledge
- Financial valuation, actuarial and other specialised capabilities
- Time tested methodologies and accelerators to help effect lasting change.
Bottom-line benefits
Effective finance operations can help an organisation in its efforts to:
- Improve information quality and data integrity for more reliable, quicker and accurate financial information
- Implement streamlined and more efficient and effective processes that are scalable and dynamic
- Have more time for decision-support activities such as financial analysis and strategic planning
- Build stronger business cases throughout the organisation
- Have better visibility and support for the finance function's initiatives
- Reduce cost and time spent on compliance activities.
Six ways to get more value
When we look at the ways some of the world's leading companies improve their finance processes, several key lessons shine through. Here are six to consider that we believe are very important.
Think across borders: Without strong enterprise-wide direction, business units are unlikely to work together efficiently. Some individuals will even sit on the sidelines waiting for the whole thing to go away. Make sure everyone who needs to be involved is involved.
Make the case: Create the process improvement case for change - communicate it early and often. A strong business case can help the finance function drive progress - and provide a clear baseline for measuring results.
Accept the certainty of change: Develop processes that are scalable and adaptable to changing business requirements. Welcome innovative practices that reflect your improvement objectives.
Shift from execution to analysis: Design your policies and processes to take advantage of automation. Reduce manual, time-intensive processes. Eliminate inefficient processes and reports. Shift finance staff from data processing to analytical decision-making.
Align with business objectives: Process improvements should support the strategic plans of the finance function and the company as a whole.
Rationalse controls: Rationalising and strengthening controls can help reduce the cost and time required to sustain ongoing compliance, thus freeing up more time for decision-support activities.

Conn. officials: Principal died lunging at gunman
Catherine Urso, of Newtown, said her college-age son knew the killer. "He just said he was very thin, very remote and was one of the goths," she said.
Lanza attended Newtown High School, and several news clippings from recent years mention his name among the honor roll students.
Joshua Milas, who graduated from Newtown High in 2009 and belonged to the school technology club with him, said that Lanza was generally a happy person but that he hadn't seen him in a few years.
"We would hang out, and he was a good kid. He was smart," Joshua Milas said. "He was probably one of the smartest kids I know. He was probably a genius."
The mass shooting is one of the deadliest in U.S. history, and among school attacks is second in victims only to the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, which left 33 people dead, including the gunman. Reaction was swift and emotional in Newtown and beyond.
"It has to stop, these senseless deaths," said Frank DeAngelis, principal of Colorado's Columbine High School, where a massacre in 1999 killed 15 people.
In Washington, the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence organized a vigil at the White House, with some protesters chanting, "Today IS the day" to take steps to curb gun violence. In New York's Times Square, a few dozen people held tea lights in plastic cups, with one woman holding a sign that read: "Take a moment and candle to remember the victims of the Newtown shooting."
President Barack Obama's comments on the tragedy amounted to one of the most outwardly emotional moments of his presidency.
"The majority of those who died were children - beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10 years old," Obama said at a White House news briefing. He paused for several seconds to keep his composure as he teared up and wiped an eye. Nearby, two aides cried and held hands.
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard described the attack as a "senseless and incomprehensible act of evil."
"Like President Obama and his fellow Americans, our hearts too are broken," Gillard said in a statement.
In Japan, where guns are severely restricted and there are extremely few gun-related crimes, the attack led the news two days before parliamentary elections. In China, which has seen several knife rampages at schools in recent years, the attack quickly consumed public discussion.
In Newtown, Robert Licata said his 6-year-old son was in class when the gunman burst in and shot the teacher. "That's when my son grabbed a bunch of his friends and ran out the door," he said. "He was very brave. He waited for his friends."
He said the shooter didn't utter a word.
Kaitlin Roig, a teacher at the school, said she implored her students to be quiet.
"I told them we had to be absolutely quiet. Because I was just so afraid if he did come in, then he would hear us and just start shooting the door. I said we have to be absolutely quiet. And I said there are bad guys out there now and we need to wait for the good guys to come get us out," Roig told ABC.
"If they started crying, I would take their face and say, `It's going to be OK. Show me your smile,'" she said. "They said, `We want to go home for Christmas. Yes, yeah. I just want to hug my mom.' Things like that, that were just heartbreaking."
Contributing to this report were Associated Press writers Pat Eaton-Robb and Matt Apuzzo and videographer Robert Ray in Newtown; Bridget Murphy in Boston; Samantha Henry in Newark, N.J.; Pete Yost in Washington; Michael Melia in Hartford; and the AP News Research Center in New York.

Former Republican Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) has been out of politics for less than a month, but I don't think he should get too comfortable: A new survey released Friday shows him crushing Democrat Ed Markey in a hypothetical matchup to fill John Kerry's soon-to-be vacant U.S. Senate seat.
A majority of Massachusetts voters would back former Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) over Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) in a special election to fill the seat expected to be vacated by Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), according to a poll released Friday.

Craigslist: no plans to revive adult ads in US
Craigslist has no plans to reopen its adult services section in the United States amid pressure from law enforcement and prostitution opponents. The world's biggest classified website finally broke that news to the world on Wednesday, almost two weeks after it shuttered the category on pages served to US-based visitors. For a …
The Internet is now Safe
In other news, postings for massages has tripled.
corpse in court?
"The news came the same day that prosecutors in Boston said they would drop charges against a man accused of killing a prostitute he found on Craigslist on account he committed suicide."
So if they hadn't decided to drop the charges persumably they would have dragged his rotting corpse into court to face trail?
Well, I'm glad that's prostitution sorted out then
Via the "Stop talking about it, or else" method. Another sterling victory for elected law enforcement!
A Real Victory...
...for pimps.
" law enforcement and prostitution opponents"
People who oppose both law and enforecement and prostitution, that got to be a might small demographic. Possibly a few hermits or some very extreme loons from either the left or right, but I wouldn't have thought that there were enough of them to have this kind of political clout.
... the world is now safe for Mom's Apple Pie.
So why not set up RedLightUSA.com or RedLightUSA.Co.UK ...
and then host it outside the USA, out of reach of these State Attorneys who are breaching the Constitutional rights pf Craigs List?
Or would the UK government even deport Brits for this?
Even simpler
Add a locale called "18th Century Colonies) to Craiglist UK. Add Erotic Services to 18th Century Colonies. End of problem.
Pimps and Lawmakers Can Breathe Easy Now
I don't know if it is a collective stupidity or just plain ignorance. This is a victimless crime. Prostitutes were free to operate their own services without the intervention of pimps. Perhaps U.S. lawmakers are so tied into organized crime that this would have been bad for campaign contributions. Either way, the descent into darkness continues apace.
How long...
...before US prossies figure out they can post their ads to overseas CL servers, and US punters figure they can find what they're looking for on those same servers?

FORT WAYNE – It has taken months of planning and fundraising, but early Friday morning 70 Marching Cadets boarded buses to Washington, D.C., to perform in the 2013 National Memorial Day Parade.
On Thursday, Concordia Lutheran high School Band Director Dianne Moellering said students were excited to get on the road.
Everybody is pretty pumped, Moellering said. Every time they've had a break during the day the past couple days they've wanted to come down and help pack costumes and band equipment.
Last August, the band was invited to participate in the annual parade as part of the Civil War Sesquicentennial and Commemoration of the Battle of Gettysburg, she said.
It's something we've been looking forward to all year long. We've done a ton of fundraisers and had some very generous people who supported us and helped us cover our costs and then some, she said. The support has been great.
The 70 students and 22 adults left Friday morning for their six-day trip, which will include several performances and some sightseeing.
Band members had to contribute $500 each to go on the trip.
Because their official parade duties do not begin until Monday, the long weekend will give students a chance to experience landmarks in Maryland and Washington, D.C., Moellering said.
Some of the stops will include Fort McHenry in Baltimore, a boat ride in the Baltimore Harbor, and visit to the National Mall in Washington, D.C.
On Sunday, students will visit the Old Post Office Pavilion for lunch and the Smithsonian National Zoo before attending a concert performed by the National Symphony Orchestra on the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol building.
Moellering said it's difficult to say what students are most excited about, but Monday's parade is sure to be a favorite.
I think they are pretty excited about the actual marching down Constitution Avenue, she said.
The 2 p.m. parade won't be televised on any local stations, Moellering said, but people can watch a live stream on www.nationalmemorialdayparade.com.
Moellering said she has been talking with her students for months about the honor and importance of being part of the national parade.
We have an ROTC program at our high school so we're pretty into honoring our veterans and this is a great way to do it, she said. And it's a great way to wrap up the year.

"Once Upon A Time" recap (3.20): The Sisterhood of the Magical Cleavage
David goes after the baby, Robin Hood for the heart, and Rumple tells Emma and Hook to go for the dagger, which they say is easier said than done. Regina's target is the necklace, but she's thrown back. Zelena calls a flying monkey to her aid (and calls it "beautiful one" so I assume it's Aurora) but David fends it off. Despite the fact that they already killed at least six flying monkeys at the dock last week, they're careful with this one. Zelena calls Regina dark, saying she's just as evil as Zelena is wicked. Regina gets a defiant look on her face and starts shooting a white light out of her palms where her fireballs usually go.
Zelena is a little startled and asks, "What are you doing?"
Regina simply responds, "Changing."
Zelena gets thrown backwards like she's done to Regina so many times before. The Dark One's dagger flies out of Zelena's hands and Regina rips the pendant off her sister's chest. The portal that had been forming behind them closes, and Zelena stumbles back, powerless. The flying monkey David had been dancing with turns into Little John (not Aurora…) and David grabs the baby, who is luckily (seemingly) unharmed.
Rumple is one magical hand-squeeze away from killing Zelena, but Regina picks up the dagger and stops him. She's had enough with the murder and the mayhem. She's ready to be good, including all that this entails, even if it means showing mercy to her enemy.
Because today Regina Mills is a hero.
Glinda takes Dorothy to see the wizard, who gives her magic slippers she can click three times and be gone. Glinda starts to thank the wizard, but the man behind the curtain isn't a man at all. Zelena is full-on green now, and ready to embrace her wickedness. She banishes Glinda to the Enchanted Forest, and her magic pendant turns as green as her skin.
In Storybrooke, Zelena is in the jail cell in the sheriff's office, wishing she were dead. Regina sits on the other side of the bars (for once). Regina tries to explain to Zelena that her life wasn't as fancy free as she seemed to think it was from her spying. Regina tells her that she's going to give her a second chance, like the one she got. People aren't born wicked, they have wickedness thrust upon them. She can be good if she wants to, if she tries.
Oh and if she doesn't play nice Regina will crush her heart.
Regina takes Zelena's pendant and tucks it away in her vault.
David brings the baby back to Mary Margaret and everyone is happy as can be. Hook apologizes to Emma for being the reason she doesn't have her powers anymore, but she's unfazed; she won't need magic in Manhattan. She leaves him to introduce Henry to his baby uncle.
Rumplestiltskin, despite having JUST left his shop where he promised Belle (in exchange for her hand in marriage) that he wouldn't succumb to the dagger's dark magic and go after Zelena, shows up at Zelena's cell. He had given Belle a fake dagger using a bait and switch move Peter Pan taught him and he now has the real one, which causes Zelena to panic. Her panic is well founded, though, because Rumple wastes no more time before turning her to glass and shattering her to smithereens.
Upon her demise, Zelena's powers seep out of her pendant, out of the vault, and back to the symbols she carved in the ground. A portal starts to whirl into existence.
Looks like we're going back in time whether we want to or not.

Correction: Homeland Security-Confirmations story
Monday - 3/10/2014, 12:20pm EDT
WASHINGTON (AP) -- In a story March 6 about three Senate confirmations of Homeland Security officials, The Associated Press reported erroneously Suzanne E. Spaulding's new title. She is now the undersecretary for National Protection Programs, not the deputy undersecretary.
A corrected version of the story is below:
Senate approves 3 Homeland Security nominees
Senate approves Obama's picks for 3 senior Homeland Security jobs
By ALICIA A. CALDWELL
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate has confirmed three of President Barack Obama's Homeland Security nominees.
R. Gil Kerlikowske was confirmed Thursday as the first permanent commissioner for the agency that oversees both customs and immigration officers at the country's ports of entry and the Border Patrol since before Obama took office in 2009. Kerlikowske was previously head of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy.
The Senate also confirmed Suzanne E. Spaulding as undersecretary for National Protection Programs and John Roth as inspector general.
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson applauded the appointments and said he could continue working to fill other senior management jobs at the department.

If you have young children, take a minute and think, do they know their last name? Their address? Their phone number?
A five year old girl from Nitro didn't and when she wandered away from her home early Sunday morning, police had a hard time tracking down just who she was or who she belonged to.
A driver found the girl dressed in her pajamas around 6:15am Sunday Morning in the middle of 40th street.
Police had to go bang on doors all over neighborhoods to find out where she lived. All she could tell police, she lived in a white house on a hill with a blue truck.
Police finally found her parents a few hours later, sleeping.
No charges have been filed, but police say child neglect charges are a possibility.

He did not identify the suspect by name.Besides the five people slain, a 6-year-old girl was wounded and taken to a hospital in Springfield, about 50 miles east of Manchester. Kilby declined to discuss a possible motive or the relationship between the suspect and the victims. ------PREVIOUS STORY:MANCHESTER, Ill. (AP) -- Authorities are investigating the slayings of five people whose bodies were found in a house in the tiny Scott County community of Manchester. A suspect is in custody. Illinois State Police spokeswoman Monique Bond says the victims were found early Wednesday morning in the southwestern Illinois community, 50 miles west of Springfield.

Detainees can challenge treatment in U.S. courts
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court dealt a setback to the Bush administration's war against terrorism Monday, ruling that both U.S. citizens and foreigners seized as potential terrorists can challenge their treatment in U.S. courts.
The court refused to endorse a central claim of the White House since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001: that the government has authority to seize and detain terror suspects or their protectors and indefinitely deny access to courts or lawyers while interrogating them.
Court rules double-questioning improper
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday warned police away from using a strategy intended to extract confessions from criminal suspects before telling them of their right to remain silent.
The court, on a 5-4 vote in a case from Missouri, said that intentionally questioning a suspect twice — the first time without reading the Miranda warning — is usually improper.
Groups gather across nation to discuss 'Fahrenheit 9/11'
The movie just hit theaters but one local family didn't need to wait for the DVD release to host a party for it.
Kevin and Elizabeth Allemann's home in Harrisburg was one of more than 2,000 homes across the United States in which Americans gathered Monday night to hear Michael Moore speak about how to put his latest movie, "Fahrenheit 9/11," into action.
Health center gains support
The Health Adventure Center gained the support of the Convention and Visitors Advisory Board Monday to receive $250,000 in funding from a city tax on lodging.
In making its recommendation to the Columbia City Council, the convention and visitors board also will ask the council to wait until there is a public hearing on the Attraction Development Committee's recommendations before reviewing or voting on the request to help finance development of a health center in the former Federal Building on Cherry Street.
Aim of technology should be new jobs
A few weeks ago I turned down the opportunity to learn how to use the Automated Postal Center that was installed recently at the post office. It's probably a great technological wonder allowing folks to have 24-7 access to a full range of mailing services. I'm sure over the next few years it will save the government a lot of money by replacing postal clerks with machines. But frankly, until somebody comes up with some new technology to replace machines with people, some that create jobs instead of taking them away, I'm going to remain far from enthusiastic about our great advances.
Every time I have to fill up my gas tank I'm reminded of how we were all going to save money by pumping our own gas, checking our own oil and cleaning our own windshields and eliminating the jobs of service attendants. I never wanted to grow up to pump gas, but the thing I resent most is the fact that it is getting increasingly more difficult to find a station that offers full service. And I haven't reached the point where I have to prove my worth as a woman by trying to perform tasks for which I'm ill-suited.
Two Wal-Mart proposals outlined
Developers who want to build a Wal-Mart at West Broadway and Fairview Road have asked city staff to review their plans and are warning that neighborhood residents can either accept a large store with accompanying amenities or a smaller store they say would be "an inferior result."
On Wednesday morning, Van Matre and Harrison P.C., legal representatives for the Wal-Mart developers, submitted a packaged request for a concept review to the city's Planning and Development Department. The package outlined details of two options for the proposed Wal-Mart Supercenter; both have met with serious opposition from neighbors.
Columbia businesses mull new alliance
Local, independent shops and cafés line downtown streets. But the owners of some of these independent businesses worry that the atmosphere created by Columbia's local stores will be displaced by corporate chains. As a result, several Columbia shop owners hope to form an independent business alliance that would strive to improve business and advertising for local stores.
In the footsteps of Lewis and Clark
The same path William Clark followed to get a view of the Missouri and Osage rivers is now open to the public.
Clark's Hill/Norton State Historic Site opened at the end of May. From the bottom of the hill to the top, there are 10 interpretive panels that explain historical and environmental aspects of the paths. At the end of the path you can see out over the rivers. You can also see a rock where Meriwether Lewis and Clark carved their initials.
GRO registers voters in low-income areas
Members of Grass Roots Organizing canvassed low-income neighborhoods Satuday asking residents if they were registered to vote.
GRO, whose membership is about 75 percent low-income, has organized several voter registration drives in historically low-income neighborhoods.
Coaches sign legal settlements
COLUMBIA — MU paid more than $136,000 to two basketball coaches who are accused of breaking NCAA rules in exchange for their resignations and pledges never to sue, documents show. Missouri had no legal obligation to pay anything to Associate Head Coach Tony Harvey or Assistant Coach Lane Odom; Quin Snyder, Missouri's head coach, confirmed that neither had a contract and both served at his pleasure.
The university president's office referred questions about the payments to Mike Alden, athletic director of the Columbia campus. Alden declined comment Friday through spokesman Chad Moller, who said the payments were tied to the NCAA investigation and that Alden is bound by confidentiality rules.
Wild horses find new homes
Twelve-year-old Megan Parks perched on the bar of a fence, her arms looped around a horizontal metal rung, rocking back and forth on her worn white cowboy boots as she pointed eagerly to a brown horse that stood near the back of the pen.
"I wonder why some horses have such long tails," she said. "Seems like they could have some Appaloosa in them."
Veteran attorney noted for integrity
Morley Swingle is a storyteller. And the law, he says, is all about being able to tell a story; to have 12 men and women on the edge of their seats, awaiting what the Cape Girardeau County prosecutor calls "The Perry Mason Moment."
"I love trying cases," Swingle said. "I wanted to be Perry Mason."
Many moved by Fahrenheit 9/11
Bill Monroe of Columbia stood in line at the Forum 8 movie theater Friday evening shielding his eyes from the sun with a clipboard that included the words "register to vote." Monroe was waiting to see Michael Moore's new controversial film "Fahrenheit 9/11."
Moore's film, which initially had trouble finding a distributor in the United States, looks at President Bush's administration and its reaction to the terrorist events of Sept. 11 and the move toward war with Iraq. It also looks at business connections between the Saudi royal family and the Bush family.
Aiming for fellowship at Senior Games
At Stephens Lake Park, a long line of men and women were trying to puncture a number of golden circles no bigger than the face of a clock from 60 yards away. They held completely still, with their hands drawn back by their ears, until the bow string was loosed, and they reached for another arrow from their quivers.
The sport is one of concentration, but amid the thumps of bow strings and whooshes of air, talking and laughter prevailed as the athletes in the archery competition of the Missouri State Senior Games joked and shared stories with each other.
Having a Konniption — sci-fi lovers gather
A war was waged Saturday afternoon on the second floor of the Stoney Creek Inn. Across a table-top covered in green cloth, jagged terrain and wispy trees, Casey Clark and Jason Dubbert squared off to battle in a game of Warhammer 40,000.
With the roll of a handful of dice, Dubbert showed signs of distress.
Missouri trooper kills man wanted in Florida
The California man who was fatally shot Thursday by a Missouri State highway patrolman was being sought by a Florida sheriff's office in connection with a double homicide.
The patrol said Friday morning that the Hillsborough County, Fla. sheriff's office was seeking 63-year-old Michael Melberg of Solana Beach, Calif., for questioning in the double homicide of his ex-girlfriend, Lorelei Fairall, and her boyfriend, Michael Moore. Hillsborough County deputies found the victims shot in their apartment.
Sheriff asks for arrest warrants
The Boone County Sheriff's Department has applied for warrants for the arrests of two individuals involved in the accidental shooting of a 17-year-old woman on June 13, Sgt. Tom Reddin said Friday.
The shooting occurred north of Columbia at 501-A Mauller Road when an occupant of the house fired a handgun through the floor. The bullet struck the woman in the back as she was making a bed in the lower floor of the home.
Summer bites when ticks attack
I lived almost three decades before I saw my first tick. And the first sighting happened in a dramatic fashion. The children had been outside playing in the yard for the entire afternoon. I fed them dinner and then proceeded to start the baths. As I started scrubbing, I noticed that my 5-year-old had several moles that seemed to have miraculously appeared overnight. I had him stand to inspect the new flaws, and then one of the spots started wiggling. I had worked in the nursing field for more than a decade. I had assisted on amputations. I had even helped with a man who was literally eaten up inside with a staph infection, but when I saw that "nasty, flat, black thing" wiggle and realized what it was, I lost it.
I screamed for my husband and fled the bathroom.
NCAA pattern hints at MU's fate
MU appears to face charges of major violations in its men's basketball program, based on how the NCAA has behaved in recent similar cases and on the views of a former longtime investigator for the college athletics authority.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association defines a major violation as one that provides "an extensive recruiting or competitive advantage."
Red Cross throws out sorority's donations
All blood donations rounded up by an MU sorority were quietly destroyed after a student organizer urged fellow members to lie about their health to qualify as donors, according to an American Red Cross spokesman quoted in local news reports.
Jim Williams of the American Red Cross told the Columbia Tribune the organization didn't announce its destruction of the 81 units of blood because it didn't want to raise undue concerns about the safety of its supplies.

Former Florida State point guard Ian Miller entered the Orlando Summer League as the Pistons third string point guard last Saturday.
After taking advantage of a opportunity that opened up due to a hamstring injury to Peyton Siva, he will more than likely leave it with a chance to prove himself on either a European or Developmental League roster.
The lead story of Summer League play has been that of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and his domination.
The last two games though, Miller is proving that he's not afraid to lay it all on the line when there's nothing to lose.
Flash back to third quarter Tuesday, when the rookie point guard got his chance to shine against the Miami Heat.
Without their top two scorers, the Pistons were looking for the next man to step up.
Miller came off the bench in the second quarter and got things started with a fade three near the far side corner on a dish from DeAndre Liggins, Miller would then nail another corner jumper on the next Pistons possession.
He ended his 7 point scoring barrage on another assist from Liggins, who pushed the ball up the floor after a Heat turnover to find Miller for an open layup.
Looking to make a push at the start of the third quarter, Detroit leaned on Miller's offense. He'd score 6 of the Pistons 8 points during an 8-0 run to start the frame that tied the game at 38.
The ACC Sixth Man of the Year last season was given his first Summer League start against the Celtics on Wednesday.
Miller didn't disappoint — scoring 16 points for the second straight day while shooting an efficient 5/9 from the floor.
Like most players though that perform well in the Summer League, it's about more than just putting up numbers that impresses scouts.
Last year, It was Phil Pressey who impressed with his speed, defense and passing ability. The undrafted free agent ended up with a three year deal from the Celtics.
Guarding Miller yesterday, Pressey helped force five turnovers.
Yet it was Miller's offensive game that stuck out.
His five made field goals on Wednesday were on five different ways to score. When he got into the lane, he made the decisions that gave him the best probability to score. Whether it was runners, running jumpers, floaters, or dishing it off to a teammate.
That aggressive approach it's what's impressing scouts and coaches down in Orlando. It's also what gets Miller to the free throw line frequently — which is becoming a lost art in the NBA.
In three games played, he's been to the line 11 times.
That's with two games with under 26 minutes of play and another with just 12 minutes on the floor.
Ian Miller attacks the game with efficiency.
Despite his style of play, he's averaging a +10 efficiency rating. He's shooting 56% from the field and draining half of his three point attempts.
Hopefully Grand Rapids Drive officials are just as aggressive in pursuing him as their starting point guard next season.
You have to love players that take advantage of the challenges that are in front of them. Pistons fans had no idea who Ian Miller was four days ago.
Now they're rooting for him to ride this basketball wave into a professional future.
Opportunities do not come to everyone, so take advantage when it knocks #GodsWork

The Houston Texans' top overall pick, defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, underwent a sports hernia procedure on Thursday, coach Bill O'Brien told reporters, via ESPN.com.
Clowney is expected to be back for the start of training camp, though he'll miss some valuable on-field instruction time.
Clowney is projected to start for the Houston defense, though defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel recently told reporters that he'd have to earn playing time.
The groin injury reportedly bothered Clowney to the point where he visited a specialist in Philadelphia to have it looked at.
The good news for the Texans is that it's better to have a lingering injury like this taken care of now as opposed to training camp, when Clowney would miss much more valuable practice time.

There is a lot to figure out heading into the 2014 season for the Kansas City Chiefs. Which positions draw the most attention?
Tight End: Anthony Fasano vs. Travis Kelce
This roster battle actually took place last season for the Kansas City Chiefs. Anthony Fasano, the veteran from Miami took the starting job after promising rookie Travis Kelce went down with a season-ending injury. This time around the Cincinnati product hopes to finish what he started by becoming a vital big target for quarterback Alex Smith in the passing game. Fasano was a nice red zone target but he showed he doesn't have the ceiling like Kelce does at age 30. Throw in the fact he only played nine games himself and it's really an even matchup.
Backup QB: Chase Daniel vs. Tyler Bray vs. Aaron Murray
The only thing consistent about the quarterback position for Kansas City is its inconsistency. Alex Smith is the definite starter but he's fighting for a new contract. Meanwhile the backup position has sunk into a quagmire of mystery. Three different names could be vying for that second spot. There is Chase Daniel, a veteran backup who played sparingly in New Orleans for four seasons. Tyler Bray is a tall, cannon-armed second-year man out of Tennessee who came out of college with loads of questions about his mental abilities. Then comes rookie Aaron Murray, the all-time SEC passing leader at Georgia with a good arm and intelligence but stands just 6'1″ and is rehabbing a torn ACL. There is no clear favorite, and that should make for an entertaining race.
Cornerback: Brandon Flowers vs. Phillip Gaines
One fact that became clear last season for the Kansas City Chiefs was the not-so-good fit of Brandon Flowers as an outside cornerback in their 3-4 system. Being 5'9″ and missing three games with injury proved that much. It's why the team attempted to trade the Pro Bowler but unsuccessfully. So for the time being he remains at the top of the depth chart opposite Sean Smith but that might not be for long. Rookie 3rd round pick Phillip Gaines comes in raw out of Rice but with much more appeal as a man-to-man corner with better size and length. He should have an excellent chance to push Flowers out of the starting job.

Something remarkable happened at the box office recently when two, yes, TWO action movies fronted by women debuted. And one of them claimed the top spot. Yes, the Plot Device Power Rankings proved its supremacy, and legitimacy, once again, but that's not the point here. What's interesting is that we've got a 'splodey, derivative, ludicrous and loud action flick winning the box office that doesn't have a dude running the point.
That won't last long. Why? Because here come the dudes, again. Or, maybe we should say, out of respect, the older gentlemen. These aren't your Will Smiths, Vin Diesels or even Shia LeBeoufs. No, these are actors who can clearly remember the Reagan and Carter administrations. Within a two week span a pair of Hollywood's, uh, mature, statesmen will be bare-knuckling their way into theaters, with Liam Neeson leading the way with The Grey, followed by Denzel Washington in Safe House.
Let's just get it out of the way now and say both of these movies give off the air of uninspiring energy drinks. Sure, they're filled with blinding amounts of caffeine, enticing food dyes and the promise of brief, enjoyable highs. But they're ultimately empty. Unless, of course, you pop a big, even aging, name on it.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.
