| View Exclusive AAUP Compensation Survey Data |
A new paper by the American Council on Education says the Obama administration's ratings proposal is likely to lead to the same negative consequences as college rankings.
The New America Foundation's recent report on the Student Unit Record System (SURS) is fascinating reading. It is hard to argue with the writers' contention that our current systems of data collection are broken, do not serve the public or policy makers very well, and are no better at protecting student privacy than their proposed SURS might be.
It also lifts the veil on One Dupont Circle and Washington behind-the-scenes lobbying and politics that is delicious and also troubling, if not exactly "House of Cards" dramatic. Indeed, it is good wonkish history and analysis and sets the stage for a better informed debate about any national unit record system.
As president of a nonprofit private institution and paid-up member of NAICU, the industry sector and its representative organization in D.C. that respectively stand as SURS roadblocks in the report's telling, I find myself both in support of a student unit record system and worried about the things it wants to record. Privacy, the principle argument mounted against such a system, is not my worry, and I tend to agree with the report's arguments that it is the canard that masks the real reason for opposition: institutional fear of accountability.
Our industry is a troubled one, after all, that loses too many students (Would we accept a 50 percent success rate among surgeons and bridge builders?) and often saddles them with too much debt, and whose outputs are increasingly questioned by employers.
The lack of a student record system hinders our ability to understand our industry, as New America's Clare McCann and Amy Laitinen point out, and understanding the higher education landscape remains ever more challenging for consumers. A well-designed SURS would certainly help with the former and might eventually help with the latter problem, though college choices have so much irrationality built into them that consumer education is only one part of the issue. But what does "well-designed" mean here? This is where I, like everyone, gets worried.
For me, three design principles must be in place for an effective SURS:
Hold us accountable for what we can control. This is a cornerstone principle of accountability and data collection. As an institution, we should be held accountable for what students learn, their readiness for their chosen careers, and giving them all the tools they need to go out there and begin their job search. Fair enough. But don't hold me accountable for what I can't control:
We wrestle with these questions internally. We talk about capping majors that seem to have diminished demand, putting in place differential tuition rates, and more. How should we think about our debt to earnings ratio? None of this is an argument against a unit record system, but a plea that it measure things that are more fully in our institutional control. For example, does it make more sense to measure earnings three or five years out, which at least gets us past the transitional period into the labor market and allows for some evening out of the flux that often attends those first years after graduation?
Contextualize the findings. As has been pointed out many times, a 98 percent graduation rate at a place like Harvard is less a testimony to its institutional quality than evidence of its remarkably talented incoming classes of students. Not only would a 40 percent graduation rate at some institutions be a smashing success, but Harvard would almost certainly fail those very same students. As McCann and Laitinen point out, so much of what we measure and report on is not about students, so let's make sure that an eventual SURS provides consumer information that makes sense for the individual consumer and institutional sector.
If the consumer dimension of a student unit record system is to help people make wise choices, it can't treat all institutions the same and it should be consumer-focused. For example, can it be "smart" enough to solicit the kind of consumer information that then allows us to answer not only the question the authors pose, "What kinds of students are graduating from specific institutions?" but "What kinds of students like you are graduating from what set of similar institutions and how does my institution perform in that context?"
This idea extends to other items we might and should measure. For example, is a $30,000 salary for an elementary school teacher in a given region below, at, or above the average for a newly minted teacher three years after graduation? How then are my teachers doing compared to graduates in my sector? Merely reporting the number without context is not very useful. It's all about context.
What we measure will matter. This is obvious and it speaks to both the power of measuring and raises the specter of inadvertent consequences. A cardiologist friend commented to me that his unit's performance is measured in various ways and the simplest way for him to improve its mortality metric is to take fewer very sick heart patients. He of course worries that such a decision contradicts its mission and why he practices medicine. It continues to bother me that proposed student records systems don't measure learning, the thing that matters most to my institution. More precisely, that they don't measure how much we have moved the dial for any given student, how impactful we have been.
Internally, we have honed our predictive analytics based on student profile data and can measure impact pretty precisely. Similarly, if we used student profile data as part of the SURS consumer function, we might be able to address more effectively both my first and second design principles.
Imagine a system that was smart enough to say "Based on your student profile, here is the segment of colleges similar students most commonly attend, what the average performance band is for that segment, and how a particular institution performs within that band across these factors.…" We would address the thing for which we should be held most accountable, student impact, and we'd provide context. And what matters most -- our ability to move students along to a better education -- would start to matter most to everyone and we'd see dramatic shifts in behaviors in many institutions.
This is the hard one, of course, and I'm not saying that we ought to hold up a SURS until we work it out. We can do a lot of what I'm calling for and find ways to at least let institutions supplement their reports with the claims they make for learning and how they know. In many disciplines, schools already report passage rates on boards, C.P.A. exams, and more. Competency-based models are also moving us forward in this regard.
These suggestions are not insurmountable hurdles to a national student unit record system. New America makes a persuasive case for putting in place such a system and I and many of my colleagues in the private, nonprofit sector would support one.
But we need something better than a blunt instrument that replaces one kind of informational fog for another. That is their goal too, of course, and we should now step back from looking at what kinds of data we can collect to also look at our broader design principles and what kinds things we should collect and how we can best make sense of that data for students and their families.
Their report gives us a lot of the answer and smart guidance on how a system might work. It should also be our call to action to further refine the design model to take into account the kinds of challenges outlined above.

Advice is plentiful for administrators starting new jobs. What should you do when your term is over? Richard Gelles offers his "Dead Dean Walking" list.
In the fall of 2011, Career Education Corporation (CECO) revealed that a significant number of its schools had cooked the books on the job placement rates they were disclosing to prospective students and regulators. Now investors in the giant for-profit higher education company are about to earn a nice profit for these misdeeds.
A federal judge has given his preliminary approval to a $27.5 million settlement that CECO has reached with shareholders to put an end to a lawsuit they brought accusing the company of deceiving them about its record of placing graduates into jobs. In contrast, most of the students who were the direct victims of this deception – with the exception of students from New York State who attended CECO's campuses – are unlikely to receive any relief for these abuses. Instead, students who enrolled in these schools based on false promises will be stuck paying off loans they took out to pay for these programs for years.
What accounts for this disparity? The answer is that investors in for-profit colleges have access to the courts for filing their grievances, while most of the sector's students do not.
Over the last several years, the for-profit higher education industry has succeeded – with the help of the U.S. Supreme Court – in stripping these students of their right to bring class action lawsuits against their schools. For-profit colleges have achieved this by including a clause in students' enrollment agreements that requires them to settle any disputes with the schools through binding arbitration. By signing these documents, students, often unwittingly, sign away their right to bring their cases to court and in front of a jury.
Mandatory arbitration agreements – which have become increasingly common in all sorts of consumer contracts, including those for credit cards and private student loans – put students with legitimate grievances at an extreme disadvantage compared with pursuing their cases in court.
For one thing, for-profit colleges select the third-party arbitration company that is going to hear the case, creating an incentive for arbiters to go easy on companies in order to get repeat business. Binding arbitration clauses tend to bar class actions, forcing each student who has been harmed to bring his or her individual case against the schools. Industry officials know that many students are unlikely to pursue their cases because of the cost of doing so. In addition, discovery is often limited in arbitration cases, making it difficult for students to gather evidence of wrongdoing. And arbitration decisions generally cannot be appealed.
Although many for-profit college companies have included mandatory arbitration requirements in enrollment agreements for years, these clauses were not always ironclad. Some states, like California, have long had consumer protection laws that frown on the use of binding arbitration requirements banning class actions and jury trials. Courts in those states have previously allowed students scammed by unscrupulous schools to move ahead with legal challenges.
However, in 2011, the Supreme Court changed the rules of the game. In the case AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion, the nation's highest court ruled that states can't reject arbitration clauses as "unconscionable" solely because they bar class action lawsuits and jury trials. That decision has shut down access to the courts for most for-profit college students, as well as for consumers of most financial products.
Even judges sympathetic to students' complaints say their hands are tied as a result of the Supreme Court's ruling. In his opinion in a case that students brought against Westwood College accusing the company of major recruiting abuses, Judge William J. Martinez of the U.S. District Court in Denver wrote in 2011 that he regretted having to require the plaintiffs to settle their dispute through arbitration. "There is no doubt that Concepcion was a serious blow to consumer class actions and likely foreclosed the possibility of any recovery for many wronged individuals," he stated.
Students aren't entirely out of luck. The U.S. Department of Education will, under very limited circumstances, discharge the loans of students who have been defrauded. Students may also benefit from settlements that the U.S. Department of Justice or state attorneys general reach with for-profit college companies, although the restitution provided in these cases is seldom sufficient to cover students' full debt loads. For instance, students from New York who attended Career Education Corporation campuses in recent years and have not found employment in their fields of study will receive some compensation, as a result of a settlement that the New York Attorney General reached this summer with the company over its faulty job placement rate claims. Students in other states who were similarly misled, however, are out of luck.
Congress should eliminate this injustice by barring colleges that participate in the federal student aid programs from including binding arbitration clauses in enrollment agreements, just as Democratic Senators Tom Harkin of Iowa and Al Franken of Minnesota proposed last year. As they wrote, "Colleges and universities should not be able to insulate themselves from liability by forcing students to preemptively give up their right to be protected by our nation's laws."
Students who have been harmed by institutions should not have fewer legal rights than investors in these companies. The real victims of abuse deserve to have their day in court too.

Not only do the Slim Secrets bars taste like a decadent treat and provide you with solutions to your snacking dilemmas, but they also have many added benefits.
A study by researchers in Australia, found that eating high-protein, low-carb snack bars between meals can successfully take the edge off the appetites of overweight women so that they eat less during lunch and dinner. The study found that women who ate the high-protein, low-carb snack bars, ate 5 percent fewer kilojoules (mostly as carbohydrates) during regular meals as a result. They also lowered their blood glucose and insulin profiles significantly (by 14 percent and 12 percent respectively).
The Mintabolism Boost bar packs a punch with green tea extract (concentrated tea) which contains antioxidants that come from polyphenols in the tea.
Our Craving-Crusher contains NeOpuntia®, an antioxidant combination of both soluble and insoluble fibre that is naturally derived from cacti (the beautifully named Prickly Pear Cactus!). The compounds from the cacti act like a magnet and bind with fats in the intestinal tract to reduce the amount of fat the body absorbs. It goes through your stomach and acts like a sponge, mopping up fats and oils so you just excrete them. Best of all, it's totally natural. This is the most exciting of all the ingredients!
Green tea extract contains polyphenols and has been shown to stimulate fat oxidation, boosting the metabolic rate without increasing the heart rate. Green tea extract also regulates your body's temperature, tempers blood sugar levels and aids the digestion process.
Studies have shown that green tea may help raise metabolic rates and speed up fat oxidation. Green tea is also a powerful antioxidant known to help reduce risk the risk of diseases such as cancer, heart disease and high blood pressure. It's also shown to help maintain a healthy digestive tract.

Eating a diet low in fibre can contribute to many disorders, including:
There is strong evidence that the high levels of fat consumed by most Australians are a major risk factor for conditions like gallbladder disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Furthermore, high levels of saturated fats, which are found in animal fats, high-fat dairy foods, tropical oils, and hydrogenated (solidified) vegetable oils, raise your cholesterol level and promote heart disease and strokes.
The benefits of a low fat diet not only include better health as shown here but also the added benefit of potential weight loss if combined with other positive actions such as exercise.
Many people today are being diagnosed as having an allergy to wheat protein. Slim Secrets bars are wheat free for this reason (except Craving-Crusher, which contains wheat).

What Vehicle to Bring
What type of vehicle will we need to visit the sites - 4 wheel drive? pickup truck? SUV?
Park closure
With the budget impasse, the park is closed until the government is again funded.
Are the sites accessible with the park closed? It will be a great loss to not have the visitor center and ranger guides, but it will be even worse to not see the park at all.
Chaco Bus?
Is there a bus tour to and through Chaco Canyon?
Travelling Between SItes
Wife and I are in our mid/late 60s with knee/ankle arthritis. For trip over July 4th weekend, will we be able to do most of inter-site travelling by 4 wheel drive and keeping hiking to reasonable levels?
Where to sleep near Chaco canyon NM?
We will be traveling to NM in June 2011. We plan to drive from Santa Fe to Chaco Canyon, visit teh canyon and the following day continue to Albuqureque. Because the drive from Santa Fe to teh canyon is about 4 hours, we would like to find a place to sleep as close to teh park as possible. We are OK with B &B, a motel, a guest house etc. but NOT camping. Any help will be appreciated.
travel to Chaco
I am travelling to Chaco in April and wonder if I need to rent an SUV or will a economy car have enough clearance. We will take the long road from the south instead of going all the way around and in from the north.
thanks so much
should have told you we are going to be there May 15-20
the dates of our travel are May 15-20
am looking for a guide to chaco canyon from santa fe
we will be staying in Santa fe and would like to know if anyone has used a guide to chaco canyon.
Getting to Chaco Canyon
I'm planning a trip to the Southwest in early September. I hope to include Chaco on my itinerary but I will be traveling in your basic rental car (compact) and am beginning to wonder if travel into the canyon might be too extreme for this vehicle... and perhaps me. It would be a day visit up from Gallup and then on to Albuquerque/Sante Fe area. Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance! Pamela

City of York falls foul of data protection act following printer mix-up
The City of York Council has fallen foul of the Data Protection Act after having accidentally disclosed personal data following a printer mix-up.

The City of York Council has fallen foul of the Data Protection Act after having accidentally disclosed personal data following a printer mix-up, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has said.
New technologies: a source of threat as well as a solution

The personal information was sent out with other documentation to the wrong person after being mistakenly collected from a shared printer and mailed without being checked.
Sally-anne Poole, acting head of enforcement at the ICO, said: "This case highlights the need for employees to take responsibility and ownership of tasks that involve handling personal data. If the documents had not been left unattended by the printer and had been carefully checked before they were sent out then this situation could easily have been avoided."
The City of York Council has introduced new security measures governing the use of its printers, with staff now required to carry out appropriate quality control checks to avoid information being incorrectly disclosed.
Kersten England, CEO of the City of York Council, has signed an undertaking to ensure that new procedures are put in place to prevent documentation containing any form of personal data from being printed where there is no business need to do so.
The council will also bring in new quality control checks on all the information it handles prior to distribution, as well as extending its clear desk policy to include printer trays, post trays and other pending work trays. The council has agreed that all of the measures outlined in the undertaking will be in place within the next four months.

OMEGA's GP901 series digital gaging probes are a refinement of the LVDT, making use of a proven mechanical design and robust construction. In a digital gage probe, the coil forms part of a frequency-sensitive circuit. As the core moves, the inductance of the coil changes, causing a change in the frequency. By comparing frequencies, the user can determine the movement of the core. Each digital probe is calibrated on a laser interferometer in a controlled environment, giving improved linearity over the full stroke compared with LVDTs. Signal conditioning and an A/D converter are contained in an in-line probe electronics assembly. The electronics assembly provides a digital signal which is compatible with the DR601 display or the LDN232 RS-232 adaptor (see Related Products below).
GP901-1-X: ±0.24 microns ±K x 1.0 micron

The Detroit Tigers have made their first trade of the year, trading away former first round pick Jacob Turner; Brain Flynn, and Rob Brantly to the Miami Marlins for Anibal Sanchez, and former Tiger Omar Infante.
The Tigers made a much needed move improving second base. The Tigers were ranked dead last in the MLB for second base production. Infante played for the Tigers 2002-2007 before going to the Atlanta Braves in 2008.
Anibal Sanchez this year is 5-4 with a 3.94 ERA. He brings a consistent arm to a rotation that has been shaky this past year. Sanchez has posted an ERA under four every year since 2009, and provides a solid strikeout to walk ratio. 8.2 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9.
Infante is under contract until 2013 but Sanchez could be just a rental for the stretch months.
The Marlins get young catching help in Brantly to replace John Buck, who has been terrible this year. The Marlins are also hopeful Turner can be a mainstay in the their rotation for years to come.
The trade is pretty smart for both sides. The Tigers get a second basemen they were in dire need of, on top Infante playing in Detroit once before. Along with a solid starting pitcher. And the Marlins get a young arm and catcher they can perhaps build around in the future.
There is a bleak chance the Tigers go after anyone else before the deadline. With the recent resurgence of Brennan Boesch and Delmon Young seeking outfield help looks like it's no longer needed.

Speak Out 5/10/05
SEMO standards
FOR THE Speak Out writer who wondered if SEMO would become a no-standards university, it already is. Leadership establishes the organizational culture, and the leadership at SEMO has made a conscious decision to disregard academic quality in favor of maximizing revenue. Change the leadership and the culture can change.
Work sacrifices
IF BUSINESS owners want to cut down on employee turnover, maybe they should hire people according to when they can work. It's obvious that mothers need to work daytime hours because their kids are in school, and kids need to be supervised in the evening hours. You have all kinds of single people and teenagers and college-aged people who are willing to work other hours. I think that is the main reason why most cashiers in this area look like they hate their jobs. In order to work in this area you have to sacrifice your family.
All the news that's fit
MISSOURI MADE the New York Times. I'm not kidding. Columnist Paul Krugman mentioned that Missouri was poised to abolish Medicaid by 2008.
Good and evil
LEONARD KUEHNERT'S letters continue to amaze me. Most people kill people because they made a poor decision in a split second, or because they have a mental deficiency that prevents them from knowing right from wrong or even caring about what they are doing. People are not "good" or "evil," they're just people. And let's not get started on the countless reasons why laws should not be based on the Bible, especially Kuehnert's fundamentalist interpretations.
Corporate threats
THE CURRENT threat to our freedom is not Big Government but huge corporations that are not democratically based. They are consolidating control of every aspect of the economy, including such unlikely things as fresh water and food. Traditional conservatives are rightly skeptical about bloated government, but the truth is that these corporations are now the real threat. They mediate virtually every aspect of our lives and, truth be told, the government and the media, too. Please learn to see the real threat.
Out of touch
SOMETIMES PEOPLE avoid those with mental illness because they have an uncomfortable suspicion that those allegedly out of touch with reality may be more attuned to it.
All the people
THOUGH IT might be an inconvenience, in order to accommodate all of the people perhaps Jackson should consider moving its graduation ceremony to St. Louis's 70,000-seat TWA Dome.
Entitlement, not welfare
IF THE Bush administration succeeds in stigmatizing Social Security as a welfare instead of an entitlement program, then I'll have no choice but to refuse my Social Security check because I don't want to be perceived as a welfare bum and do want to keep my dignity intact.
More 'Annie'
THE SOUTHEAST Missourian went out of its way to cover in great depth the local public school play "Annie," and you get a Speak Out comment denouncing you for not doing enough. What an ingrate.
Art snobbery
I AGREE with professor Clayton that Cape doesn't need another riverboat mural, but I also think Cape doesn't need a River Campus to put it in. To say Mr. Lucy is not an artist is the height of elitist art snobbery! To hope to compare the River Campus to one of the major private universities in the nation or a large city's art museum is ludicrous. Get your nose out of the air, professor Clayton. It's the rainy season in Southeast Missouri and you might drown.
'Corn pone parochialism'
SEMO ART professor Ronald Clayton recently claimed the new mural commissioned by Southeast Missouri State University "is not a mural at all," and exemplifies "corn pone parochialism." He said his view is universally shared by SEMO's art department. I have a vast general knowledge of art, all the way from paintings appearing in prehistoric caves to postmodern art fashionable in the art community until very recently. I prefer the works of the Old Masters of the Renaissance and the Impressionists. To some extent, I admire the works of Klee, Kandinsky and even the Pop Art epitomized by the works of Andy Warhol. What stuns me about the arts profs at SEMO is their apparent lack of knowledge of current trends in the art world. If Mr. Clayton reflects the views of the entire art department, these folks just aren't up to speed. The prestigious Encyclopedia of Modern Art devotes four chapters to the most avant-garde and sophisticated movement in the arts -- corn pone parochialism.
Art critic
RONALD V. Clayton's comments concerning Gary Lucy and the commissioned mural are out of line and ridiculous. The only positive comments in Clayton's statements indicate that he is close to retirement. Thank goodness.

Remy already said way back in #40 that he would look into > allowing this to be configurable :) I don't really see anything that says the real issue will be addressed. An out of the box Tomcat has to be configured not to have a bug? Plus, he said he would look into it and all this and that and that's fine, but no where does it reflect he believes there is an issue, and right now a bug caused by an uninformed decision remains. One, how do you synchronize calls with jsp:useBean with scope of session? Where else is session accessed in the Tomcat code without synchronizing that developers should be aware of? Is JSESSIONID stored in the session as well and where is it accessed? We need to make sure that access is synchronized. If we are going to talk about specifications and responsibilities lets talk about them, but logically and truthfully. There is more to this issue than can be addressed by: "It's the developers responsibility.". Do we need to file bugs for all of the other issues if this is going to remain invalid? I say that must be the case if this is to remain invalid. Personally I don't like the idea that "this was done as an experiment"... written in one of the comments above... in a system said to be "production quality" (Tomcat home page). The point is this: if it were an experiment it should have used an option to turn it on, but should not have been a default by any means. If a system has an apparent flaw that reduces it's stability and reliability and especially when it can be solved with a couple of lines of code.....a patch is a no brainer. This entire issue makes Tomcat currently invalid as there are sections of standard usage which can not be safe guarded against concurrency issues. If I have an issue where customers can get kicked out of the site after being logged in and the client asks me to fix it....I can't without changing the entire application, and by that I mean not using jsp:useBean calls in my JSP pages without wrapping them with other calls, so what's the point of using the tags in JSP if they can't be safe guarded without more work. I thought the point of the tags, EL, and other things is to make development quicker and to provide short cuts. My opinion: 1) Before a decision was made to change the synchronization of something which was currently synchronized when documentation for the underlying implementation explains there are issues with not synchronizing should not have only been discussed as to whether it was safe, logical, and correct, but should have been proved. 2) If it were to be an experiment, then it should have used an option to turn it on, and the default been the more correct implementation for the given situation. 3) When a problem is identified in a piece of software being promoted as production ready it should be handled. Not shaken off as INVALID. Where is the proof that unsychronized reads don't have issues. Examine the HashMap source code and write a few tests. You'll see with the bouncing index that a valid value can exist in the Map for a given key and that Entry not be located because null is returned. Thus a program relying on a session variable to be set will not be able to retrieve that session variable and take an entirely different path because of this....it's very simple........just read the code: public Object get(Object key) { Object k = maskNull(key); int hash = hash(k); int i = indexFor(hash, table.length); Entry e = table[i]; while (true) { if (e == null) return e; if (e.hash == hash && eq(k, e.key)) return e.value; e = e.next; } } between the time i is set from a call to indexFor if table is resized with all values null or all items are transfered and the given index for i is null then null is returned as soon as we step into the while loop. What that means is: If between the time i is set from indexFor and the HashMap is resized because of a write then there is a concurrency issue which affects the consistency of the application. How can this issue be worked around currently using Tags? If we need to file bugs on all the other places please let us know. If you would like some help with the other issues I would be willing to help, but my feelings are this should be changed back for the time being and we need a new release based on the latest release with only this change to the source. In the mean time all the other issues can be worked on as all of that will take more time than this change. Once those issues are dealt with then change it back and make sure the issue is documented on the front page of the Tomcat documentation. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Since Roane County doesn't have money in the bank to build a new high school, the funding to pay for such a project will most likely be generated from a property tax rate increase.
"I don't see how you could do it without one," Roane County Executive Ron Woody said.
The Roane County Board of Education met with an architectural firm during a retreat last month and discussed building new schools. No votes were taken.
Rockwood police are investigating an armed robbery at a home at 537 S. Kingston Ave. on Saturday, Jan. 28.
Rockwood Officer Kendall Mitchell's report said the victims told police the unknown suspect got away with prescription medication that included 90 15-milligram Oxycodone tablets and 30 15-milligram Oxymorphone tablets. The victims told police the suspect also took $100 in cash.
Roane County is the recipient of a $50,000 Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation grant for truck scales to help reduce landfill waste in Tennessee and move materials to the best highest use.
The grant, which requires a 50-percent match from the county, was among more than $2 million grants the state distributed for recycling equipment, recycling rebates and used oil.
"This grant program encourages
and supports local communities to meet their solid waste and recycling goals," said TDEC Commissioner Bob Martineau.
State Sen. Ken Yager favors Gov. Bill Haslam's proposal to raise the state's fuel tax rate, lower sales tax on food and adjust other revenue sources.
The plan proposes a road user fee of 7 cents per gallon of gas and 12 cents per gallon of diesel. It would also increase car registration fees by $5 for the average passenger vehicle, place annual road user fees on electric vehicles and increase charges on vehicles using alternative fuels.
It also includes a 3 percent charge on rental cars.
By Ron Woody
The buzz around the Courthouse and Board of Education has been what will our leaders do about the future of education in Roane County?
The initial discussions were about consolidation of high schools with an acceptable debate change to: What should the delivery of future education services look like?
I applaud both the school board, the County Commission and the public for focusing the discussion on the future of education and not on consolidation.
Gentle reader, as you will recall, last week we were filled with hope that the President and the old curmudgeon were going to hit it off just fine, based upon his statements in his inaugural address concerning the state of education in the nation.
Unfortunately, although we remain steadfast, he has veered off course already in the very first week on the job. How disappointing. But, we must soldier on, as we have in the past made a practice to do, through numerous administrations, regardless of partisan affiliation, and call 'em as we see 'em.

Despite the season coming to a close, Oliver Springs head coach Allison Payne was happy with what her team accomplished this season.
A strong season came to a disappointing end for the Oliver Springs Middle School Bobcats Saturday afternoon, as Lance Jones squad dropped a 42-26 decision to Colonial Heights in the opening round of the TMSAA Class AA Sectional Tournament in Pigeon Forge.
"It was our first state tournament and we came out tight against a good basketball team that got upset in their district tournament," Coach Jones said. "We were never able to recover. We made a run at them late, but then they made some shots."

Editing seminar snapshots: How much should you budget for editing your book? And how should you choose an editor?
Posted by Roz Morris @Roz_Morris in How to write a book, self-publishing on March 6, 2016
This very good question came up when I spoke at the Writers & Artists selfpublishing summit a few months ago. And my answer… deserves a post.
First, there seem to be two modes for charging: by the hour and by the wordcount or page. With the wordcount, writers can be quoted a fixed price, so everyone knows where they stand. With an hourly rate, it's much more difficult for the writer to know how much they'll be spending.
The convention seems to be that developmental editing is quoted by the wordcount or page, and other phases are priced by hour. Here's a post that describes the different editing processes and the order to use them in.
Second, editors set their own fees. Does a low price indicate good value? It might if the editor is starting out and doesn't yet have a reputation. But might they also be lacking in experience? Indeed, might they be a complete amateur?
Conversely, if an editor's charges are high, does that mean they're good?
I think everyone can see it's a buyer beware situation.
How do you tell? Here's how to navigate the maze and spend your ££$$ wisely.
Establish that the editor is right for you.
For developmental edits, you need a specialist in your field. I would be useless to a fantasy author because I don't read fantasy. But I can edit its close cousin, magic realism. I can't edit genre romance of the Mills and Boon variety, but I can edit any number of stories that feature a romantic relationship. So find out what if their tastes are in tune with yours.
Find out where they got their experience.
There are a lot of people setting themselves up as editors. Are they just someone on the internet who's been to a few critique groups and thinks they can edit? Are they writers whose only experience is helping out their friends? They might be great – everyone has to start somewhere – but they might not at all.
The best editors will have done the job for publishing houses or literary consultancies. Even if they mainly work with indie authors or authors who haven't yet published, they'll have that background.
Fiction, non-fiction, memoir, narrative non-fiction?
This may seem obvious, but make sure your editor has developmentally edited your kind of book. If they've chiefly worked with non-fiction, or even scientific and technical books, they might be too pedantic to allow for the artistry in a more narrative manuscript.
The fussy quotient: will the editor's approach suit you?
Do you want an editor who'll be good at explaining how to fix problems? This is where an edit from an experienced professional is far more useful than a critique group. Your beta readers might say 'the characters are thin'. A good editor will identify why and offer suggestions for fixing it. They'll spot other potentials in your book too – which you may be surprised about.
Why do charges vary so much?
There are various industry recommended rates (see Writer's Market, as quoted by Writer's Digest here), but developmental editors have to set their fees according to how long a project takes them. I spot a lot in a manuscript, so the work takes me more time than it takes a less pernickety editor – because I find there are a lot of points I need to raise. Some authors are eager for this, and some aren't. Do you want an editor who will approach your work in that depth? You might not. But you'll pay according to the depth of the work.
Should you ask for a test edit of a small portion of your book?
Opinion is divided. Personally, I've never had to do a test edit. All my clients have hired me after an email conversation. But they're not acting on blind faith because I can demonstrate my approach and degree of thoroughness from the posts on this blog, my books and my video interviews. Some editors might offer a test edit, or they might have a pre-prepared sample that illustrates the kind of comments they make. Be worried, though, if they send a report they wrote about someone else's book; that should stay confidential.
Copy editing and proof reading
These are less specialised, and tend to be charged for by the hour. How long will it take to edit or proof your book? It depends what shape the manuscript is in. The copy editor has to take charge of consistency and clarity. So if your use of language is imprecise, the copy editor will have more to do. If your plot is complex, and especially has a lot of time shifts or locations, they'll have more checking to do. If you've been woolly about any of these details, you'll multiply their workload.
Should you ask for a sample copy edit or proof read?
Unfortunately, a sample is no gauge of how long it will take to do the work because the second half of your book might fall apart, and the copy editor will have to hammer it together. I recently copy-edited one 50,000-word book that took 50 hours, and one that took more than twice that time. What I tend to do is to charge in blocks of 20 hours, then keep the author informed of progress so they at least have a warning of the cost.
So… how much?
But I still haven't answered that question: how much will editorial services cost you? For a 50,000-word novel, budget GBP£1000-2500 for the developmental edit, the same for the copy-edit and the same for the proof-read. Minimum probably £2000 if your manuscript is really clean. Maximum (depending on the quality of the editor and the manuscript) £7500.
Phew, that looks like a lot, doesn't it? If you were traditionally published, you wouldn't see these costs, but this is part of the publisher's investment in your manuscript. And yes, there are people who manage to produce good books on a much smaller budget (I have tips here on low-cost options for getting good help ). The sums can be a bit of a shock when the rest of our writing activity seems so cheap and free, unlike, say, skiing or learning to fly. But I hope this post has helped you to see how to get good value.
POSTSCRIPT I've had a few emails since I published this post, so a clarification might be helpful.
One reader remarked that copy editing and proofreading don't usually cost as much as developmental editing. Generally, that's right. The costs all hinge on how much time the editor has to spend, and that's related to how much has been done to the manuscript after each stage. But in real life, if a developmental edit leads to a lot of rewriting, that might leave a lot of tidying for the copy editor. Once we get to proof-reading, it should be a fast and final read with minimal changes … but again if a lot has been altered this will slow things down. I've had manuscripts where so much had changed after the copy edit, that the proof read was in fact another copy edit. Which is why I made the point that everything hinges on the cleanness of the manuscript.

What keeps you resilient as a writer?
Posted by Roz Morris @Roz_Morris in How to write a book, Inspirations Scrapbook on March 1, 2015
The life of a writer is a kind of madness. We have the pressure to produce. The expectations of ourselves and, if we're lucky, our readers. We have, usually, the feeling that we can never do enough – can't write enough words or books, can't be in enough online places, can't sell enough copies. We might also have the feeling that we're failing in comparison to others, that we have too many opportunities we can't fulfil well enough – or no opportunities at all because, as we hear every minute of the day, the market is glutted and nobody needs any more writers.
But writing and publishing are long games, and those of us who keep at it have to develop a resilience. Day by day by day, there's a secret fuel that keeps us keeping on. Otherwise this would be a dumb way to live, right?
In my corner of the world, March has dawned bright and full of promise. I still can't figure out how, as it seems just a fortnight since Christmas, but as we're here I thought I'd share the things that put a spring in my step.
Noting each hour I've spent on my fiction. Those of us who write and edit as a day job often find our soul projects get pushed aside. That's one of the surprising truths about the writing life. Emma Darwin posted about this recently, in which she talked about ring-fencing time for her own writing. I cherish the time I spend with Ever Rest each morning before I open the deluge of emails. Just an hour loads the book in my mind and keeps it ticking over while I deal with the day's demands. Sometimes deadlines make it impossible, and if that continues for a few days I start to get twitchy. But a proper appointment with my own writing restores my equilibrium. Even if that's an hour of filleting a paragraph over and over, hunting for the right tone, that was well spent. Page by page, it adds up to a book.
The sense that so much of a book is serendipity. I look back at my completed novels and can recognise where incidental details came from, and sometimes the big ideas too. So much of a book's texture seems to have come from random remarks I heard, news headlines I glimpsed, a novel I happened to be reading or a film I saw when my own story was at a sensitive point. My books are made of a collection of happenstances and lucky discoveries. Which is a bit magical.
Finding an email, a tweet or a Facebook note about one of my books. Sometimes they're from a stranger, or a name I recognise only glancingly. We are probably more widely read than we suspect. But every single remark is a genuine, welcome surprise – or at least confirms I'm not howling into the wind.
An afternoon reading for pleasure. My reading time is usually appropriated by work – manuscripts in progress, research to get ideas and to make sure my WIPs are properly informed (both non-fiction and fiction). So I try to make time for an indulgent read, purely for fun and curiosity (which is how the rest of the literate world probably reads anyway). Again, I don't always succeed when the deadlines go wild. (If you like to explore more about how writers read, bookseller Peter Snell and I discussed it recently in one of our radio shows. Find them all here – it's show no 21.)
A good sales day, of course, which is different for everyone, and seems to be more of a challenge now than ever. But they do happen. I've written before about how much harder it is to sell fiction than non-fiction, and how to take a long-term view, and how a sale of one of my novels delights me about five times as much as a sale of a Nail Your Novel book (but I'm still very grateful to have those, thank you very much).
The Undercover Soundtrack I started this series on the Red Blog and have kept it going now for four years. It's fun. People enjoy it and it's nice to be able to offer an unusual kind of showcase for other writers. But also The Undercover Soundtrack keeps me in touch with the essence of creativity. These essays ground us in the work we do. It's not about communities, forums or sales. It's the pleasure and struggle of sitting down with yourself, the long persistence of flying blind through an idea, seeking clarity, gathering substance, the process of gradually making something from nothing.
The wonderful web of writer support. Most of the time we all try to be upbeat on line. And there is much to do, and many opportunities to grasp, and many reasons to press onwards and upwards. But I'm grateful whenever one of my co-conspirators lends an ear for a moment of woe, or confesses they are having just the difficulties I am – when I thought I was the only one.
Thanks for the pic MadAdminSkillz

Good bridle to fit an ISH?
I have checked on several websites and all anyone seems to have is horse sized bridles. I need a bridle that would fit an Irish Sport horse and have no clue where to find one! I am to check out a local tack shop that specializes in "higher end" breeds but also wanted to know if anyone know of a good website as a back up?
He is a 16.2 1400 lbs. Irish Sport if that helps.
bump! Could really use some help on this one.
So Oversize doesn't work? Any place I've been to carries oversize bridles. You also can contact Nutty Saddler on this forum, and he'll make you custom-made one depending on your horse's measurements (his work and leather quality are very nice).
We saw a few oversized in the feed store today that we are going to try and they said that we can bring it back and exchange it if we don't get it too dirty.
Bobby's Tack bridles fit my ISH REALLY well! Just google Bobby's Tack and it will come up! Legacy Tack in Texas sells them!
