An animal rights activist is footing the bill to have a new pet-adoption center built on her property in east Houma.
An animal rights activist is footing the bill to have a new pet-adoption center built on her property in east Houma.
"This is my passion," said Diane Baker. "You get these feelings sometimes that you want to give back."
The 3,000-square-foot metal building is meant to be an upgraded version of My Heart's Desire, a nonprofit pet-adoption center at 246 N. Hollywood Road.
The building costs about $300,000 and is being constructed by the Houma-based Bryan Porche Construction, which will break ground on the project today.
The building was designed by Matherne and Matherne Drafting based in Houma.
Baker is joining forces with the no-kill animal shelter so workers and volunteers there can continue to provide services for homeless animals without having them killed.
The center focuses on finding homes for pets that would otherwise be bound for animal shelters.
Overpopulation at shelters often means animals are killed after a period of time if they're not adopted. Christine Belanger, a volunteer at the My Heart's Desire, said Baker's generosity is overwhelming and the new facility means a lot to her group and especially the animals.
"We are really excited," she said. "It's going to be an awesome facility, and it's a great thing for the community."
The existing center is too crowded and doesn't offer enough for animals, Belanger said. The building is also prone to flooding.
The new center will be a major improvement, Belanger said, and will provide workers, visitors and animals with the pet-friendly space they need.
Baker's facility, which will still bear the name, My Heart's Desire, will include 11 large kennels, a meet-and-greet area for guests and plenty of fenced in space outside for animals to run and play.
The new My Heart's Desire center will continue its same pet-adoption practices and procedures.
The animals and equipment at the existing shelter will be transferred over to the new one once it's complete.
Volunteers at My Heart's Desire get pets from a variety of sources, inc luding owners and animal shelters in Assumption, St. Mary, Terrebonne, Lafourche and Plaquemines parishes.
To adopt a pet at My Heart's Desire, owners pay a fee, which is used to vaccinate and spay or neuter another pet up for adoption. The nonprofit mostly survives from the fees and private donations.
Baker is hosting a ground-breaking ceremony at 11 a.m. today at the construction site at the corner of Tupelo and Pitre streets.
Baker is also having a life-sized bronze monument constructed to depict a Vietnam soldier with four war dogs — what she says is the first of its kind in Louisiana. Baker said she expects the building and the monument to be done by September.
Baker is passionate about war dogs. She said she's read about how nearly 5,000 dogs served in Vietnam and saved up to 10,000 American servicemen through their scouting and sentry duties.
Sadly, Baker said, when the United States withdrew from Vietnam in 1975, many canines were left behind — declared "surplus armaments" — and either were put to death or left to unknown fates.
Baker said the center and monument are something she hopes will also give east Houma residents something to be proud of.
After taking a homeless dog to My Heart's Desire last year, Baker said she felt the need to help.
She has about four acres of spare property that she wasn't sure what to do with until it dawned on her to build a state-of-the-art pet-adoption center.
"At that moment, it just hit me that that's what I needed to do with that property. It's too much just for me," she said. "I'm doing this for the community and for the veterans and for the war dogs that were left behind."
Baker would like to honor those veterans who were dog handlers in the Vietnam War by adding their names to the war-dog monument. If you are such a person, you can email her at email@example.com.

Vox NEW Modern Classics - Night Train / AC4
Night Train :The rock-solid, no-compromise all-tube VOX head for the musician on the go.
Add your hot sound to a late night demo; sit in at your favorite club; jam with friends; cut tracks across town – or do it all in a single day! The Night Train NT15H is your new best friend. Whenever and wherever, Night Train is ready to deliver that smooth and satisfying all-tube sound. We understand that you don't want to choose between killer sound and total convenience. And with Night Train you never will.
Main Features
- Rock-solid, all-tube head that is made to travel.
- Uncompromising sound with two 12AX7 preamp tubes and two EL84 power tubes.
- Selectable BRIGHT or THICK mode switch provides EQ and Gain variations for just the right tone.
- Dual-power tube mode offers 15 watt (Pentode Power) or 7.5 Watt (Triode Tone) operation.
- Master Volume control preserves your gain settings at any playing level.
- Solid, industrial-chic mirror finish exudes tube coolness.
- Custom padded carry-case is included.
If Looks Could Kill
Night Train is one sexy beast. Solid enough to inspire confidence, Night Train weighs less than seventeen pounds - and the "armored lunchbox" dimensions provide extreme portability. Finished with a cool chrome mirror-finish, the signature VOX diamond design reveals that inspiring vacuum tube glow. And of course, the Night Train NT15H includes its own padded carry case to protect your investment.
True Tube Power
The sound is pure VOX. Inside, a pair of EL84 tubes deliver on the tube power promise. Two 12AX7 tubes drive the preamp stage with both power and clarity. This is the same winning tube complement as the classic VOX AC15. From chime-like clean tones to the warmest overdrive, there is no mistaking that harmonic richness of pure tube performance.
Dual Nature
A single switch lets you select between Pentode or Triode tube operation. In the Pentode mode, Night Train delivers a full 15 watts of power. In the Triode mode, the power is cut to 7.5 watts. The Triode mode also relaxes the tube power stage, letting that silky-smooth, mellow tube character shine through.
Preamp Pizzazz
Night Train greets you with a clear, simple panel design; offering the familiar Gain and Volume controls. The Tone controls include Treble, Middle and Bass, allowing you to dial up just the right character for your individual, signature tone. In addition, the preamp section features a mode switch, offering both BRIGHT and THICK options. The BRIGHT mode accentuates the high-frequency components for a clear, ringing tone; the THICK setting bypasses the tone circuit to boost the gain and create a chunkier, heavier sound.
Cabinet Convenience
Equipped with both 8Ω and 16Ω speaker jacks, Night Train can be used immediately with nearly any speaker cabinet. Naturally, we recommend VOX extension cabinets. This extra measure of versatility is just one more example of why Night Train maybe the one amp you never leave at home.
Say hello to a familiar face – the new VOX AC4TV.
Way back in 1961, VOX rolled out the AC4 amplifier. Nearly fifty years later, VOX is pleased to announce the AC4TV – the all-tube practice amp with remarkable self control. This up-to-date Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original and features a 12AX7 powered pre-amp, all driving a custom-made Celestion 10 inch speaker. The sophisticated sound is unmistakably VOX, delivering that distinctively British top-end tone.
Main Features
- Affordable all-valve design
- Switchable output levels 4. 1 & ¼ Watt output levels
- Quality vintage Vox styling
- External speaker output
Simple and sexy, the AC4TV wears its pedigree proudly. The cabinetry features the same "TV" front design first used on the classic 1958 AC15, and still in use on today's AC15H1TV Heritage Series. One of the challenges confronting an all-tube amp is retaining a full tone at lower volumes. To solve this issue, the AC4TV features a built-in power attenuator, with 4 Watt, 1 Watt and ¼ Watt output levels – ensuring you never lose that classic tube tone, even at the lowest listening levels. Want more? The AC4TV also adds a 16 Ohm speaker output, allowing you to add an additional cabinet – such as the VOX412BN – and state your sonic signature with authority. It's retro, it's chic, it's all-tube and it's all VOX. So what are you waiting for?
Also available as a head & Cab version AC4TVH & V112TV

Asian Turkey Burgers
Yield: 6 servings
Prep Time: 25 min
Cook Time: 8 min
Total Time: 1 hr 33 min
We lightened these burgers by cutting back on the meat and adding some texture with bulgur. Great Asian flavors in the burger, a quick picking of cucumbers and onions and a spicy yogurt sauce tie everything together.
1/4 cup bulgur wheat
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 seedless cucumber, sliced 1/8-inch thick, 1 cup
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
12 ounces lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 scallions, chopped
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 clove garlic, grated
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, plus 1/4 cup whole leaves
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 whole wheat hamburger rolls
Put the bulgur in a medium bowl and add the boiling water. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand until the bulgur is tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk the vinegar and sugar with a generous seasoning of salt and pepper until dissolved. Add the cucumber and onion, toss well and set aside to marinate for about 30 minutes.
In a separate small bowl combine the yogurt and chili garlic sauce. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Drain the bulgur and put into a large bowl. Add the turkey, hoisin, scallions, ginger, garlic and chopped cilantro and mix until just combined. Form into 4 equal sized patties.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until very hot. Lightly brush both sides of each patty with oil and place in the skillet. Cook, turning once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Drain the pickled vegetables and toss with the whole cilantro. Spread some spicy yogurt sauce on the top and bottom of each bun and top with a burger patty and some pickles.

BATAVIA – The Batavia woman who purchased a $7.25 million Lotto ticket at the 7-Eleven store at 336 E. Wilson St. in Batavia, is known as a regular customer of the store.
Illinois Lottery officials on Tuesday announced that Ancelma Martinez was the winner in the Dec. 17 Lotto drawing. She matched all six numbers – 2-15-18-23-50-52.
Martinez elected to receive her prize in a one-time payment of $5,513,306, the release stated.
"We've known her for years," said Rick Niedfeldt, franchise owner of the store. "They're a nice couple, her and her husband. We're happy for them. I'm sure they can put the money to good use for their family."
Niedfeldt and his wife, Marlene, are Batavia residents and have owned the 7-Eleven store since it opened in 1987. This is the first time the store has sold a ticket with such a big prize, the couple said. For selling the winning Quick Pick ticket, the store will receive 1 percent of the prize, or $72,500.
Neither Martinez nor her family could be reached for comment. According to a news release from the Illinois Lottery, Martinez said she was at Lumes Pancake House in Batavia having breakfast with her husband when she checked out the winning lottery numbers in the Kane County Chronicle and found out she would be a millionaire.
"I almost spilled my coffee everywhere," Martinez said in the release. "I was very surprised. I still can't believe I won."
Martinez and her husband have lived in Batavia for 33 years. They have five children and six grandchildren.
Martinez has been playing one $2 Lotto ticket each week, "for many years," according to the release. This was the second Batavia 7-Eleven store to sell a multimillion-dollar winning Lotto ticket in 2012.
In March 2012, a Batavia resident came forward to claim a $3 million winning Lotto ticket that was sold at the 7-Eleven store on Fabyan Parkway in Batavia. The man, who wished to remain anonymous, purchased the ticket on St. Patrick's Day. He opted for the lump sum payment of $2,127,660.
The 7-Eleven store at 710 E. Fabyan Parkway received a bonus of $30,000 for selling the winner the lucky ticket.
The Illinois Lotto drawing takes place Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights.

RoMANS - Rocky Mountain Atmospheric
Nitrogen & Sulfur Study
RoMANS Report (October 2009):
- Volume I (pdf, 5.2mb)
- Volume II (pdf, 16.1mb)
- Appendix 1 (pdf, 498kb)
- Appendix 2 (pdf, 2.0mb)
- Appendix 3 (pdf, 2.5mb)
- Peer Review Plan (pdf, 48kb)
Rocky Mountain NP is negatively impacted by the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen and sulfur compounds. Airborne nitrate and sulfate particles contribute to degraded visibility in the park and nitrogen deposition changes ecosystem functions and surface water chemistry. The National Park Service has a legal obligation to protect these and other natural resources unimpaired for future generations. To learn more about the impacts of Nitrogen and Sulfur on Rocky Mountian NP, the Rocky Mountain Airborne Nitrogen and Sulfur (RoMANS) study was conducted during two representative sampling periods in 2006 with the following objectives:
- Identify the overall mix of oxidized and reduced nitrogen in the air and precipitation on the east and west sides of the Continental Divide
- Identify the relative contributions of nitrogen at Rocky Mountain National Park from emissions originating within the state of Colorado and outside the state, as well as relative contributions of in-state regions, and
- Identify the relative contributions of differing source types including mobile, agricultural, other area sources, and large and small point sources.
Key findings indicate that:
- Nitrogen and sulfur concentration and deposition rates were about a factor of 2 higher in the summer than in the spring and resulted from very different meteorological processes. In the summer, elevated concentrations and deposition occurred almost daily, as a result of convective activity. In the spring, virtually all of the wet deposition resulted from a single synoptic-scale event associated with sustained upslope transport.
- In both the spring and summer sampling periods, average concentrations for most oxidized and reduced species were highest in northeastern Colorado, with a sharply decreasing, east-to-west gradient. During the spring, the split between sources of in- versus out-of-state nitrogen was about 67:33; during the summer, the split between sources of in- versus out-of-state nitrogen was about 53:47.
- The source attribution results indicate that roughly half of the nitrogen deposition in Rocky Mountain NP originates from sources east of the park and half from sources west of the park. However, the mechanisms causing deposition from eastern and western sources are quite different. In general, emissions of nitrogen compounds west of Rocky Mountain NP are low or distant from the park. These low level emissions impact the park because airmass transport is persistently from the west. To the east of Rocky Mountain NP are a number of high nitrogen emission regions, including the nearby Front Range and agriculturally intensive areas in northeastern Colorado. Upslope, easterly airmass transport from these areas is relatively infrequent; however, when it does occur, Rocky Mountain NP often experiences its highest ambient nitrogen concentrations.

Bell back to Grandpaws pet store
by Susan Mikula Campbell
A Dumpster fire outside the SPCA of Niagara on Lockport Road in Wheatfield Tuesday afternoon will result in some extra security measures at the facility.
Town of Niagara Police responded to the call at 12:39 p.m. at the request of the Niagara County Sheriff's Office. The fire was extinguished by the Sanborn Volunteer Fire Co., and the Bergholz Fire Volunteer Co. also responded. At one point, flames were reported as high as the nearby SPCA building.
Town of Niagara Police Lt. Craig Guiliani said the cause of the fire will be listed as undetermined and the case closed, since there was no evidence left at the scene and the contents of the Dumpster burned.
SPCA officials aren't so sure it was an accident.
Shelter Director Amy Lewis and board of directors President Bryan Barish agreed that the thought of possible arson crossed their minds, but there was no proof.
"Dumpsters, especially in 36-degree weather, filled with mostly newspapers and old blankets, don't spontaneously combust," Lewis said.
Some old, soiled blankets had been put in the Dumpster on Tuesday and its door was closed. An SPCA driver left the facility and everything around the Dumpster was fine. Five minutes later, another driver pulled in and saw the door to the Dumpster open and flames inside, Lewis said.
The SPCA has been the victim of trespassers before, notably last summer, when during an outside event, someone entered the facility, released dogs from their kennels and opened an exit door.
If Tuesday's Dumpster fire had spread to the facility, it would have been at the point where the kennels for strays are. Lewis said no people or animals were harmed by the fire, but due to smoky conditions in the kennels, the large garage doors on the side of the building were opened to clear the air.
Barish said an alarm system is being installed this week and the board also is considering security cameras.
If the fire was deliberately set, "it's a shame, because we're accomplishing so much," he said, noting that the shelter under new management is now a no-kill shelter saving 95 to 99 percent of the animals that come through its doors. "We're doing a fantastic job with extremely limited funds."
A year ago, the shelter was under attack for the high percentage of animals euthanized and for using the heart-stick method of euthanasia.
Lewis was brought in to take over running of the shelter and turning it into a no-kill facility. Then, Andrew Bell, owner of Grandpaws pet store in Lewiston and the then new SPCA board president, stepped in on a temporary basis to stabilize things financially and administratively, while Lewis focused on the shelter, Barish said.
Bell achieved those goals as executive director and stepped down on Feb. 22.
Barish said the SPCA's board is in the process of developing a new strategic plan and goals, which will be followed by a nationwide search for a permanent executive director experienced in nonprofit organizations.
"The deal I had with the board always was when they felt the organization was stabilized and headed in the right direction, my work would be done," said Bell. "We've reached that point."
He's back at his business "until the next project comes along." That could be a Wheatfield-Town of Niagara dog park that has been suggested for the SPCA facility. Bell was instrumental in helping get the Lewiston dog park started.

Surrounded by family, friends, colleagues and co-workers, Bill McLaughlin ended his career as a Carter County Commissioner in style Thursday afternoon. A reception in the courthouse annex was standing room only as people from as far away as Garvin County made their way to wish McLaughlin well in his retirement.
"It means everything to us," Bill McLaughlin's wife Kathy McLaughlin said. "It shows how much people love him, care for him and are thankful for all that he has done. I just want to thank everybody for their support and caring at this time, when he needed it the most. We are thankful for people being there for him the way he was there for them. The family appreciates everything that has been done."
McLaughlin presented his retirement letter during the commissioner meeting on Monday, citing health reasons. At the beginning of the reception, McLaughlin was awarded a plaque and a slide show was played throughout the reception honoring his service.
"It was a wonderful turnout," Commissioner Kevin Robinson said. "I think he is ready to retire and he was proud he got some time to meditate on that. I think the turnout shows how good of a person he is. He is a people person and he is appreciated."
Included in the crowd were elected officials and fellow county commissioners from throughout the area, many of whom stayed the length of the two-hour reception.
"I just appreciate everybody showing support for Bill and all the things he does," Commissioner Dale Ott, said. "I hope he enjoys his retirement and has time to watch a lot of NASCAR."
All those that showed up signed a banner that spanned the length of a table. By the end of the reception, finding a spot to write on began to prove difficult as the banner filled up with numerous messages. Those actions left the family appreciative as McLaughlin left his elected position on a high note.
"We are happy that everybody came and showed their support," Angie McBride, McLaughlin's daughter said.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – For the first time in school history, a King University cross country runner has won an NCAA Regional title.
Senior Hannah Witt finished the six kilometer NCAA Southeast Regional Championship in 21:46.0, nearly 26 seconds faster than her next closest competitor, to take the individual title. Witt led the race from start to finish, more than doubling her advantage from 10 seconds at the halfway mark.
With her win, Witt continues a dominant season for the Tornado. She will compete as an individual at the NCAA Division II Championship on November 23 in Spokane, Wash. as one of the top three individual finishers whose team did not qualify for the championship event.
"We're really proud of Hannah and all she's accomplished this season," said head coach Peter Dalton. "She's put in a lot of hard work and is very deserving of the chance to compete at the national championship meet."
Witt has been King's top finisher in every race this season and has not finished behind an NCAA Division II competitor all season. In six competitions this season, Witt has only been beaten by runners from East Tennessee State University and the University of South Carolina, along with two non-collegiate unattached competitors. She now owns the school record time on a six kilometer course and four of the top five times on a five kilometer course.
Witt was joined by three additional seniors among the top four finishers for the Tornado. Kendra Sokol finished 27th overall with a time of 23:17.6, while Eliza Parker was 42nd and finished in 23:38.8. Both Sokol and Parker gained eight positions over the final half of the race. Evan Ferrell finished 46th and picked up seven positions over the final three kilometers.
Freshman Tiffany Gargiulo was the final scorer for the Tornado. She finished in 58th position, seven spots higher than at the halfway point of the race.
Wingate University won the meet with a score of 75. Flagler College and Columbus State University scored 107 and 130 points, respectively, to round out the top three teams and advance to the NCAA Division II Championship. Clayton State University and UNC Pembroke finished fourth and fifth.

When Lancaster residents Elizabeth and Joe Simpson went for a walk at Lake Wateree not long ago they encountered a little more than fresh air.
The Simpsons were following their dogs along the banks of Lake Wateree near Beaver Creek when they noticed their chocolate lab, Tripp, and German shepherd, Hootie, playing with a brown object in the water.
"At first we thought it was a fish or something. Tripp was pulling it up with his head," Elizabeth Simpson said.

Summer has arrived and for many gardeners that means heat, drought and watering bans. This can be hard on gardeners as well as their landscapes. The good news is that there are ways to help plants thrive despite these seasonal challenges.
Adjusting landscape care accordingly during the summer months can not only provide relief for lawns and gardens, but also for the gardener.

Emerging evidence from international studies is verifying that trees and forests offer invaluable benefits to human physical health.
Research results from the University of Illinois provide evidence that trees may also help to reduce social problems.
Investigators found that trees draw people out of their individual homes and foster socialization among neighbors.
These relationships then help nurture children and build a strengthened sense of community, contributing to good physical and mental health.

Science tells us 70 percent of the Earth is covered with water of some kind (not counting the water in swimming pools), and swimming is certainly a popular recreational sport. But can you be too old – or too young – to learn how to swim? In Lancaster, the answer is most decidedly no.
University of South Carolina Lancaster aquatic instructor Anne Small has been a swim instructor for 30 years. She says age makes no difference when learning the skills it takes to be a swimmer.

September 27, 2002
Ms. Diane Walker
Judiciary Programs
Kennesaw State University
1000 Chastain Road MB # 0506
Kennesaw, Georgia 30144-5591
Dear Ms. Walker:
This is in response to your email of September 26, 2002, in which Kennesaw State University (University) seeks clarification on certain provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). 20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99. You ask whether certain education records can be disclosed pursuant to a State open records request. Specifically, you state that you have received a media request under the Georgia open records act for disciplinary records relating to incidents that occurred in student housing. You state that the campus law enforcement unit has incident reports, which are open to the public, and that any information relating to disciplinary proceedings, such as sanctions, could be compared to the law enforcement unit records and, thus, reveal the identity of individual students.
FERPA protects eligible students'(1) privacy interests in "education records," which are defined as "those records, files, documents, and other materials which -
(i)contain information directly related to a student; and
(ii)are maintained by an educational agency or institution or by a person acting for such agency or institution.
20 U.S.C. § 1232g(a)(4)(i) and (ii). See also 34 CFR § 99.3 "Education records." Excluded from the definition of "education records" are records of the law enforcement unit of an educational agency or institution, but only under the conditions described in § 99.8 of the FERPA regulations. Records on a student regarding violations of housing or other regulations maintained by school officials outside of the University's law enforcement unit are protected as "education records" under FERPA because the records are "directly related" to students and maintained by the institution and do not fall under the law enforcement unit exemption to "education records." See 20 U.S.C. § 1232g(a)(4)(i) and (ii) and 34 CFR § 99.3 "Education records."
FERPA prohibits a recipient of U.S. Department of Education funds from having a policy or practice of nonconsensually disclosing personally identifiable information derived from education records, except in certain statutorily specified circumstances. 20 U.S.C. § 1232g(b); 34 CFR § 99.31. While there are specific statutory exceptions to the prohibition that personally identifiable information from education records may not be released without consent, the FERPA statute does not include a general exception for the public disclosure of student disciplinary records. Accordingly, these records may not be disclosed without the prior written consent of the student or students about whom the records relate. 20 U.S.C. § 1232g(b)(1) and (d). See also 34 CFR § 99.30.
In 1998, Congress amended FERPA to, in relevant part, provide the following:
(B) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit an institution of postsecondary education from disclosing the final results of any disciplinary proceeding conducted by such institution against a student who is an alleged perpetrator of any crime of violence (as that term is defined in section 16 of title 18, United States Code), or a nonforcible sex offense, if the institution determines as a result of that disciplinary proceeding that the student committed a violation of the institution's rules or policies with respect to such crime of offense. (C) For the purpose of this paragraph, the final results of any disciplinary proceeding--
(i) shall include only the name of the student, the violation committed, and any sanction imposed by the institution on that student; and
(ii) may include the name of any other student, such as a victim or witness, only with the written consent of that other student.
Pub. L. No. 105-244, § 951, 105th Cong., 2nd Sess. (October 7, 1998).
Under this amendment, postsecondary institutions may - but are not required by FERPA to - disclose the final results of a disciplinary proceeding in which the institution determines that the student perpetrator committed a crime of violence or non-forcible sex offense. On July 6, 2000, the Department published in the Federal Register regulations implementing this change to FERPA. See specifically § 99.31(a)(14) and § 99.39. Enclosed is a copy of those regulations. You did not indicate whether the University believes that the violations constitute offenses that would, if proven, constitute a crime of violence. If the University believes that the offense would rise to the level of a crime of violence, then FERPA would not prohibit the disclosure of the final results of the disciplinary proceeding. (See the definition of "final results" under § 99.39.)
With regard to the disclosure of a disciplinary record (assuming that the request is not within the purview of the amendments to FERPA involving crimes of violence), the school may not disclose the information, even in redacted form, if the information could be traced to the individual student. "Personally identifiable information" includes, but is not limited to, the following information:
(a) the student's name;
(b) the name of the student's parent or other family member;
(c) the address of the student or the student's family;
(d) a personal identifier, such as the student's social security number or student number;
(e)a list of personal characteristics that would make the student's identity easily traceable; or
(f) other information that would make the student's identity easily traceable.
34 CFR § 99.3, "Personally identifiable information" (emphasis added).
FERPA does not specifically define the term "easily traceable" and whether or not the release of information might be considered easily traceable must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. If a school reasonably believes that release of information would make the student's identity "easily traceable," then the school should not disclose the information to the requesting party. Where a request asks for a specific student's disciplinary records, then it is reasonable to conclude that the student's identity would be obvious to the requester. However, if the institution of postsecondary education receives a general request for disciplinary records, as long as personally identifiable information (including information that is easily traceable to a student) is redacted, such a release would not be prohibited by FERPA.
Your e-mail indicated that the editor of the school newspaper indicated that a decision of the Georgia Supreme Court supported his position. We are aware that in 1993, the Supreme Court of Georgia concluded that records of disciplinary proceedings of the University of Georgia were "not the type" of records FERPA was "intended to protect." Red & Black Publishing Company v. Board of Regents, 427 S.E. 2d 257, 261 (Ga. 1993). We believe that decision is inapposite for several reasons.
On its face, the records sought in that case pertained to organizations, not individual students(2). Moreover, the United States Supreme Court recently decided the case of Gonzaga University v. Doe, No. 01-679 (June 20, 2002). There, the disclosure at issue pertained to allegations of "sexual misconduct." While the Court ultimately held that FERPA's nondisclosure provisions create no rights enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, there was no dispute that records regarding student misconduct are subject to FERPA. Since disciplinary records pertain to student misconduct, the United States Supreme Court has, in effect, overturned the decision in Red & Black. Further, as noted above, Red & Black, which was decided in 1993, was overtaken by Congressional action in 1998 through the enactment of section 951 of Pub.L. No. 105-244. Finally, we note that on June 27, 2002, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit unanimously affirmed a lower court's ruling that university disciplinary records are "education records" under FERPA and that disclosing such records without students' consent constitutes a violation of FERPA. United States of America v. Miami University; Ohio State University, et al., 294 F.3d 797 (6th Cir. 2002). Although we realize that Georgia is not in the Sixth Circuit, this decision is consistent with the Supreme Court's decision in Gonzaga and would be highly persuasive to the Federal courts in Georgia.
I trust that this explains the scope and limitations of FERPA as it pertains to your inquiry. Should you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact this Office again.

1. "Eligible student" means a student who has reached 18 years of age or is attending an institution of postsecondary institution at any age. See 34 CFR § 99.3 "Eligible student." The rights under FERPA belong to the parents of students under the age of 18 at the elementary/secondary level and transfer to the student when he or she becomes an "eligible student."
2.Specifically, the requested records were those of the "Organization Court," which "hears and adjudicates cases involving alleged University rule and regulation violation on the part of fraternities and sororities." 427 S.E. 2d at 260.

Despite being in the thick of the holiday season, we haven't forgotten what's really important: bags. During the holidays, bags are perhaps even more important, because nothing makes a better gift. (So says us. We may be biased. Or kidding. Or both! You decide.) Really, though, if you want to give a great gift or point a very generous gift-giver in the right direction for you, we've taken the liberty of rounding up the season's absolute best possible handbag gifts.
Some of them are an incredible longshot unless you're already a VIP customer (ahem, croc Birkin), but we think some of the others might surprise you or those who shop for you. If money was no object and we could build our perfect handbag wardrobe this holiday season, these are the things we'd buy.
Givenchy Antigona
$2405 via Bergdorf Goodman
We've extensively documented how much celebrities adore the Antigona, and it seems like every day, a new starlet pops up with a version on her arm. Our favorite (and Miranda Kerr's) is the classic, though - that's why the Antigona is this year's ultimate black bag.
Chanel Python Wallet On Chain
Price via Chanel - (800)550-0005
Python has been a huge trend for a solid year now, and we can't think of a single treatment we've liked better than the delicate blue, grey and gold finish on this season's ultimate python bag.
Louis Vuitton Burgundy Ostrich Suitcase Bag
$12,600 via Louis Vuitton
This might be called a "suitcase" bag, but we think it's the season's ultimate bag in fashion's current favorite color, burgundy. I go back and forth on my feelings on ostrich skin, but in this treatment, it looks fantastic. (Of course it does, it's Louis Vuitton.)
Fendi Astrakhan 2Jours Tote
$10,580 via Neiman Marcus
Fur isn't everyone's favorite, but those who love it, really love it. It's an enormous bag trend right now, and the ultimate implementation is this colorblocked Astrakhan version - the short, highly textured fur doesn't overwhelm the structure for the bag like most types of fur would, and the overall effect is totally luxurious.
Louis Vuitton Trunks
Prices vary via Louis Vuitton and Vintage Sources
When talking about serious travel gear, absolutely nothing compares to the ultimate - a Louis Vuitton trunk. Not headed anywhere that requires an entire wardrobe? Lots of people use them as particularly swanky home decor.
Alexander Wang Snakeskin Pelican Satchel
$1172 via Ssense
Alexander Wang just got appointed as the creative director at Balenciaga, one of the most prestigious posts in fashion, and this bag is one of the best his company has ever put out - it's definitely this season's ultimate contemporary bag.
Hermes Crocodile Birkin
Price on Request via Hermes
This shouldn't shock any of you - the Hermes Birkin in crocodile is easily the ultimate handbag, period.
Judith Leiber Hexagon Rhapsody Clutch
$3995 via Neiman Marcus
Judith Leiber's definitely the maker of the ultimate evening bag, but it's not one of her famous object clutches. Instead, Leiber really shines when the company's crystals are directed toward a more art deco approach.
Zagliani Tomodachi Weekender
$17,810 via farfetch.com
The gorgeous color variation in this crocodile makes this bag an easy winner for this season's ultimate weekender.

Butler University (IN) (05-11-6001)
On May 3, 2012, OCR resolved a Title IX compliance review of Butler University (University). The review addressed whether the University discriminates against female students by denying them an equal opportunity to participate in intercollegiate athletics and whether the University discriminates against male or female students by not awarding athletic scholarships or grants-in-aid in proportion to the number of students of each sex participating in intercollegiate athletics. Prior to the conclusion of OCR's investigation, the University entered into a Resolution Agreement with OCR. Under the Agreement, by September 1, 2012, the University has to demonstrate that it is accommodating effectively the interests and abilities of female students in order to provide them an equal opportunity to participate in sports or, if unable to demonstrate current compliance, submit a detailed plan to OCR to accommodate effectively the interests and abilities of female students in its athletics program over the next three academic years. The plan must include a description of interim steps that the University will take during the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 academic years to increase athletic participation opportunities for women. With respect to scholarships, by September 1, 2012, Butler must also demonstrate that during the 2011-2012 school year equal opportunities were provided in awarding athletic scholarships to male and female athletes. Or, if the University is unable to demonstrate this, it must submit a detailed plan to ensure that by the beginning of the 2014-2015 academic year, Butler is in full compliance with its Title IX obligation to provide athletic scholarships in a non-discriminatory manner.

CROI 2014: How Depression Impacts HIV (Video)
April 14, 2014
Esteban Martínez, M.D., Ph.D., and Karl Goodkin, M.D., sit down to talk about the connection between depression, control of HIV and heart failure. Overall, HIV-infected patients have a 45% lifetime risk of a depressive disorder, compared to a 4%-7% risk in the general population. This may be partly due to HIV's effect on the central nervous system, according to one study presented at CROI 2014.
The panelists also discuss studies that showed a link between depression and myocardial infarction, as well as a decline in depression as viral load is better suppressed. While viral load may be driving depression, this mental health issue is also driving viral load through a lack of adherence or retention in care. Additionally, they explain that depression is underdiagnosed in the U.S. and Spain, and hypothesize that this may contribute to the difficulty of controlling HIV in certain individuals.

Wyoming Cowboys With A Post Season Berth
The University of Wyoming men's basketball team has earned a postseason berth for the first time since 2009, as the Cowboys accepted an invitation on Sunday to play in the College Basketball Invitational (CBI) presented by Zebra Pen. UW will face North Dakota State on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in Wyoming's Arena-Auditorium.
"I've been proud of this team's hunger and edge since day one, so we look forward to adding another game in the Double A to this season," UW head coach Larry Shyatt said. "This is a great opportunity for our Wyoming fans to support the program's first 20-win team in nine years and a well-earned reward for our six seniors this season."
Cowboy fans may purchase tickets through the Wyoming Athletics Ticket Office by going online at WyomingAthletics.com or by calling 877-WYO-FAN1 (877-996-3261) or 307-766-4850. Tickets are $16 for adults, $8 for youth (3-18) and $5 for UW students. The game will not be televised, but you can listen in live on AM 1030 KTWO.
Wyoming men's basketball season-ticket holders who wish to reserve their regular seats for this week's game need to either go directly to the UW Athletics Ticket Office or call. The deadline to reserve season-ticket seats is Noon on the day of the game. Season-tickets seats may not be reserved online.
The Pokes compiled an outstanding resume this season that included a 20-11 overall record for their first 20-win season since 2002-03. Wyoming also featured one of the top scoring defenses in the nation, allowing opponents only 55.5 points per game to rank in the top 10 in the nation.
Wyoming is making its second appearance in the CBI after hosting Northeastern in 2009. This is Wyoming's 24th appearance in a postseason men's basketball tournament, including appearing in 14 NCAA Tournaments, eight National Invitation Tournaments (NIT) and now two College Basketball Invitationals. Shyatt also guided Wyoming to the postseason in his first season at UW, with an appearance in the 1998 NIT versus Gonzaga.
Two of the CBI's eight First Round games will commence on Tuesday with the remaining First Round games being played on Wednesday. The Quarterfinal Round will take place on Monday, March 19 with the Semifinal Round games being played on Wednesday, March 21. The best-of-three Championship Series begins on Monday, March 26. Each game will be played at host schools.

Harry Styles Gets MORE New Ink, Plus One Direction's Next Single Is…
After showing off two new arms tattoos less than a month ago, you'd think that Harry Styles would be set on the ink front for at least a little while… But no, clearly he wasn't, as he just debuted some more skin etchings via The X Factor's All Access Pass.

- we connect 3 parties - suppliers, retailers, and customers with a system that benefits all of them, getting the right product to the right person
- strong focus on data analysis
- strong focus on relevance to the customer
- A lot of our software is mobile-based, but we would like to avoid having an actual smartphone in the logo; however, less direct references to mobile are ok, but not necessary.
Feel free to interpret with broad license - you don't even need to touch on one of the attributes listed prior!
The target market for Unata is large retailers. Our logo should look professional as we're trying to set up meetings with execs @ these chains.
- feel free to use the whole Black/white/grey range as much as you like
- please do not use more than 2 accent colors. 1 is just as good.
- Please do not use just red and blue together.
- This logo must work for a white background.
To summarize in a few adjectives what we are looking for, they would be;
- Bold
- Innovative
- Sleek
- Professional
- Intelligent
- Leading-edge
- Simple, elegant
There is the possibility that we would include our logo in mobile apps. Therefore, if the logo works well in a small size / for small pixel area, that's a bonus. However, this is not a requirement; we will consider all submissions even if they don't meet that objective.
We of course want complete copyright to the design, so please no embedded clip art.
We intend to give every designer who participates constructive and plentiful feedback.
Looking forward to working with you!

NL Capsules
WASHINGTON (AP) — Francisco Liriano didn't allow a hit until the sixth inning against a struggling and depleted Nationals lineup, and Pedro Alvarez homered off Stephen Strasburg to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates past Washington 4-2 on Wednesday night.
The Nationals fell to 0-6 since the All-Star break — scoring a total of 13 runs in that span — and have lost 11 of 13.
Liriano (10-4) walked the first batter he faced, then retired 11 in a row before another walk. Five more outs followed, before rookie Anthony Rendon reached on what was ruled an infield single with two away in the sixth.
The Nationals wasted an exceptional outing from Strasburg (5-8), who struck out 12 and didn't walk anyone in eight innings. He gave up only one run and two hits, all in the second inning. It was Strasburg's ninth career game with 10 or more strikeouts.
The Pirates tacked on three runs in the ninth against Drew Storen and Fernando Abad.
Mark Melancon got the last three outs to earn his third save.
NEW YORK (AP) — Tim Hudson took a shutout into the eighth inning before getting spiked at first base and carted off the field during Atlanta's victory over the New York Mets.
Hudson has a broken right ankle and will undergo surgery in Atlanta once the swelling goes down.
Evan Gattis, Dan Uggla and Andrelton Simmons all homered off an ineffective Jeremy Hefner to help the Braves' bats break loose after scoring only four runs in their previous three games.
Hudson (8-7) was working on a four-hitter when Eric Young Jr. hit a grounder that was knocked down by first baseman Freddie Freeman. Hudson took Freeman's toss at the bag just before Young arrived, and the speedy outfielder stepped on the back of Hudson's lower right leg, near his Achilles, driving the pitcher's right ankle awkwardly into the base.
The 38-year-old Hudson won his fourth straight start, striking out nine in 7 2-3 innings. Luis Avilan replaced him and gave up a two-run double to Daniel Murphy.
Hefner (4-8) compiled a 1.76 ERA in his final eight starts before the All-Star break, the best mark in the majors during that span. But he was tagged for a career-worst eight runs and 10 hits in two-plus innings last Friday against Philadelphia.
The right-hander allowed a career-high three homers to Atlanta in 4 1-3 innings.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Jake Westbrook pitched seven solid innings and contributed offensively with his second career steal, leading St. Louis past Philadelphia.
Matt Adams had two hits and three RBIs, and Shane Robinson's three-run triple in the fifth was his third hit of the game for the Cardinals (61-37), who are 4-1 since the All-Star break.
Allen Craig had two hits and a walk to give him 16 hits during a nine-game hitting streak. He is second in the NL in hitting at .337 behind teammate Yadier Molina (.339), who had three hits and an RBI.
Westbrook (7-4) had his first career three-hit game and helped knock out John Lannan (2-4) when he drew a two-out walk in the fourth, stole second and scored on Carpenter's single for a 4-0 Cardinals lead.
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Kyle Lohse pitched seven strong innings, and Carlos Gomez had four hits and drove in two runs to lead Milwaukee over San Diego.
It was the Brewers' first win since left fielder Ryan Braun was suspended Monday for the remainder of the 2013 season for violating Major League Baseball's drug policy.
Lohse (7-7) gave up five hits and struck out six. He is 6-1 over his last 11 starts with a 2.51 ERA. The Brewers were 2-8 in Lohse's first 10 starts and 8-3 in his last 11 starts.
John Axford pitched a scoreless eighth inning, and Jim Henderson worked the ninth to record his 11th save in 14 opportunities.
Sean O'Sullivan (0-2), making just his second start and third appearance of the season for the Padres, pitched 6 1-3 innings, giving up three runs on seven hits. He started in place of Jason Marquis, who is scheduled for Tommy John surgery.
DENVER (AP) — Jorge De La Rosa tossed six scoreless innings, Todd Helton doubled and scored a run, and Colorado held on to beat Miami.
Michael Cuddyer reached three times and Rex Brothers earned his sixth save in seven chances with a scoreless ninth.
Miami entered the series having not scored in 37 innings, but it is the Rockies who struggled for runs in the first three games. They managed one Monday, two against Jose Fernandez on Tuesday and two more against Jacob Turner on Wednesday.
De La Rosa (10-5) made sure the two runs would stand up with another strong performance, and Colorado snapped a two-game skid.
De La Rosa set down 13 of his last 15, yielding only two-out singles to Adeiny Hechavarria in the fifth and Placido Polanco in the sixth. He allowed six hits and struck out four to reach double-digit victories for the first time since winning 16 games for the Rockies in 2009.
Turner (3-3) was a hard-luck loser for the second straight outing. He allowed two runs and six hits, struck out four and walked two in six innings. It was the third straight start he allowed two runs.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Mike Leake pitched six-plus innings of wildly effective ball and had the third three-hit game of his career, leading Cincinnati past San Francisco.
Leake (10-4) allowed a career-high 12 hits but gave up just one run. He also snapped an 0-for-26 skid — his longest hitless streak — with two singles and a double.
Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips and Devin Mesoraco each drove in two runs to power the Reds to another impressive win against the reigning World Series champions. Cincinnati finished 6-1 against the Giants this season, and most of the wins weren't even close.
The Reds outscored San Francisco 45-14, including Homer Bailey's no-hitter on July 2. They also outscored the Giants 31-11 in four games this week at AT&T Park.
In the finale, the Giants had 15 hits — including a career-high five singles by Hunter Pence — but were 4-for-16 with runners in scoring position and stranded 15 on base.
Chad Guadin (4-2) gave up six runs and seven hits in 3 2-3 innings in his worst — and shortest — start of the year for San Francisco. He also allowed a season-high five walks.
CUBS 7, DIAMONDBACKS 6, 12 innings
PHOENIX (AP) — Nate Schierholtz lined a two-out double into the left-field corner in the top of the 12th inning to drive in the go-ahead run, and the Chicago Cubs held on to defeat Arizona.
The RBI was the fifth of the night for Schierholtz, who also hit a three-run home run. The Cubs lost a six-run lead but went ahead for good in the 12th on a walk to Anthony Rizzo followed by Schierholtz's double.
Hector Rondon (2-0) pitched the 11th and 12th innings for the win. The Diamondbacks left 16 runners on base and fell 1½ games out of first place in the NL West behind the Los Angeles Dodgers.
David Hernandez (4-6) took the loss after Arizona's relievers had pitched 6 2-3 scoreless innings.
Arizona's Paul Goldschmidt hit his 22nd home run, a three-run shot in the sixth inning.

AUGUSTA — Maine Gov. Paul LePage has vetoed a bill that would direct the administration to report on efforts to combat welfare fraud.
The bill introduced by Democratic Rep. Drew Gattine of Westbrook requires the Department of Health and Human Services to report annually to the Legislature on its efforts to investigate fraud in MaineCare and programs like Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
In his veto letter, the Republican governor said the department would need additional resources, but that lawmakers stripped the funding from the proposal.
The Democratic-led Legislature rejected several of LePage's proposals to overhaul the state's welfare programs this session.
LePage also vetoed a bill authorizing some quasi-municipal entities to use video and audio to conduct meetings. A third vetoed measure makes changes to the state's Freedom of Access Act.

This is What the World's Biggest Food Fight Looks Like
Yesterday in Bunol, a small town of 9,000 people near Valencia in Spain, the annual festival "La Tomatina" took place. This food fight is reportedly the largest (and definitely craziest lookin') food fight in the world. People showed up from all over the world to throw 130 tons of tomatoes at each other.
Photo by pkatelyn on Instagram
For the first time in the history of the food fight, which dates back to 1945, a mandatory $13 dollar (10 euro) fee was required to participate. This new policy might be the reason why attendance was down from 40,000 participants last year to only 20,000 people this year.

Oliver's new trick: standing in his crib.
Which breaks my heart + makes me smile at the same time.
My boy is growing.
9.5 months old.
2 tiny bottom teeth.
Army man crawl.
Loving sweet potatoes.
Happiest of baby stages.
Awww I love that stage....when you walk into the room and they look at your with bright eyes standing in their cot (or standing their crying, because we have taken too long!) We have bite marks on our cot from our babies doing the exact same thing as your wee one.
Your photo is has captured the moment beautifully!
This is the first time that I have seen him and thought that the looked a little like Abby. Something about the eyes.
Great picture.
such a fun age. they grow too fast!ReplyDelete
I love new tricks...but I understand why they break hearts. Our little ones would make quite the pair! Someday, in some alternate universe, we should get the three that are exactly the same age together; they would have a ball!ReplyDelete
I agree with Lisa. I too can see Abby in those beautiful eyes.
Such a fun stage!
I really can't believe it. Standing up in the crib? Wasn't he just born?ReplyDelete
Ohhhh, he's sooooo adorable. And growing so fast, he's changing so much too. Right before our eyes!ReplyDelete
Such a cute boy, and he totally looks like Abby!ReplyDelete
hello my little friend, oliver! he really is the sweetest of babies. i can't even believe how quickly the months have passed. love, lindsayReplyDelete
Sounds perfect. What a little cutie pie :)ReplyDelete
I CANNOT believe he's that big! Seriously, how did that happen? He's gorgeous, just like the others.ReplyDelete
