From Artinfo:
\r\nRobert Lazzarini's studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, recently resembled a crime scene lab or a product-safety research facility. In one corner was a full-scale hotel room door in a freestanding frame, ready to be violently kicked in so the artist can take notes on the damage for a forthcoming sculpture. There's also a large windowpane, likewise due to be smashed and studied for a piece that will be included in the artist's exhibition this month at Marlborough Chelsea in New York.
\r\nMaterial destruction, attention to the most minute detail, and obsessive research are all hallmarks of Lazzarini's practice, which results in intricately altered sculptures of skulls, violins, pay phones, brass knuckles, guns, and signage... (continue reading)

News Update
Memorial Elementary dedicates new building
Photos courtesy of Plano ISD -- From left; Memorial Elementary School Principal Sarika Pride accepts a proclomation from Plano City Councilman Pat Miner celebrating the opening of the new Memorial campus, which replaced the school's prior home of 45 years this year. The new building was rededicated with a patriotic ceremony Thursday night.
By Conner Hammett,
Published: Friday, November 9, 2012 5:56 PM CST
At most schools, writing on the walls would get a student detention.
At Plano ISD's newly rebuilt Memorial Elementary School, it's just another day on campus.
Floor-to-ceiling whiteboards are just one of the many improvements at the new campus, which was celebrated Thursday by former and current teachers, administrators and students with a patriotic rededication ceremony.
Guests were able to roam the halls to get a closer look at the facility, which now includes collaborative learning spaces, touch-screen computers and laptops for students.
Misty Petty, whose 6-year-old daughter Mya started kindergarten at Memorial this year, said the school's technological features and unique approach have impressed her most.
"It's all about collaboration and teamwork," she said. "Kids love that. When I was in school, you sat in a desk, in a row, all day long. They never sit in a desk, in a row, all day long. They work and learn together, and they figure things out together."
Addressing the crowd, Principal Sarika Pride said teachers and students were happy to see the new school being built just outside their windows last year, adding that opening the school at the beginning of the year was an "amazing honor."
"Even as we watched as empty space became a framework, and then ultimately a brick-and-mortar structure, nothing could prepare us for the reality of the first day of school welcoming the students and their families," she said.
Keeping in with the school's namesake -- a tribute to former Plano students who gave their lives in military service -- patriotic decorations littered the campus, and a video honoring the fallen heroes was on display at multiple locations throughout the campus.
In a keynote speech, former student and United States Air Force Captain Tom Plunkett said he did not know the meaning behind the school's name as a student, but that the school nevertheless instilled in him the values of leadership and service that ultimately led to his military career.
"One day," he said, addressing current students in the audience, "you will look back and remember the principal or teacher that helped you develop the tools to make you successful or change your life."
In a separate speech, Captain Ikedinachi Akagha, U.S. Navy, said it was at Memorial that he learned to open his horizons
"I have to admit: It made me a little sad when I heard that they were going to tear down the [old] building in an effort to rebuild and make more space for a large amount of students," he said. "But change isn't always bad ... sometimes a routine needs to be broken in order to ready ourselves for a better and brighter future."
Memorial opened at its original location in 1967. The original campus, which was located next to the new building, has since been demolished to make way for parking spaces. The construction of the new school was paid for by the district's 2008 bond election, which in the past three years has also financed the rebuilding of Sigler, Meadows and Mendenhall elementary schools.
Despite all the changes, Charles Greer, principal of Memorial from the mid-1970s to mid-1990s, said one thing has remained true at the school throughout all of its years.
"The key to having a good school is having a good staff, and this school has always had a great staff of people working that like to work with these kids, so that makes the difference," he said.

Sunspot Reviews |
A chorus of "Oohs" and "Aahs" arose from our family
EVERYTHING! It was wonderfully appointed and even came with bikes to borrow, sand toys, and an outdoor shower to wash off a day at the beach. At other seaside rentals, my children usually brought half of the shore line inside and we all end up fighting itchy sand for the remainder of the stay. Not this time. We were able to direct them to the outdoor shower that was steps from the house. A huge help -- especially for all those moms who do most of the packing for the family -- was if there was anything we forgot to bring, the home inevitably had it there for us to use. The beds were luxurious and the bathrooms...a person could have lived inside of the shower stall alone! it was everything we needed and more than we knew we wanted! Manager's Response We are so glad you liked the home. Yes, everyone seems to love the place. I mean who wouldn't? Right out on the ocean and a sparking new architect designed home. We'll pass on your review to the owner who will be very proud. |

West Bend couple can't collect in birth control mix-up
Madison - A clinic that mistakenly gave vitamins instead of birth-control pills to a West Bend woman doesn't have to pay to raise the child she conceived but can be sued for other financial damages, a state appeals court ruled Wednesday.
Shelby Nell and the boy's father, Austin Omernick, appealed to the 2nd District Court of Appeals after a lower court concluded public policy considerations such as preventing fraud and making sure awards are fair to defendants protected the clinic from liability in their case.
Citing a 1990 Wisconsin case, the appeals court said a parent must have undergone an unsuccessful sterilization before he or she can make claims for costs relating to raising a child from an unwanted pregnancy. Claims of temporary contraception failing or getting wrong pills can be rife with fraud as parents try to collect huge awards, the court said. »Read Full Article(22)
GAB seeks change in absentee voting rules
Madison — Wisconsin election officials have decided to ask the Legislature to make a number of changes to Wisconsin's absentee voting regulations.
The state Government Accountability Board on Tuesday voted to recommend lawmakers allow all overseas voters to receive ballots electronically. Currently only military and oversea voters with no intent to return can obtain ballots electronically. The change would allow students and vacationers to obtain them electronically as well.
The board agreed to recommend lawmakers to set one common deadline for requesting an absentee ballot on the Thursday before the election. Currently deadlines vary for the general public, military voters and indefinitely confined voters.
The board also agreed to ask legislators to eliminate a requirement that all absentee voters get a U.S. citizen to sign the return envelope.

Former IRS chief: Can't say how targeting happened
WASHINGTON (AP) The man who led the Internal Revenue Service when it was giving extra scrutiny to tea party and other conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status told Congress on Tuesday that he knew little about what was happening while he was still commissioner.
Douglas Shulman, who vacated his position last November when his five-year term expired, told the Senate Finance Committee he didn't learn all the facts until he read last week's report by a Treasury inspector general confirming the targeting strategy.
In his first public remarks since the story broke, Shulman said: "I agree this is an issue that when someone spotted it, they should have brought it up the chain. And they didn't. I don't know why." »Read Full Article(5)
Crews race to find survivors of Oklahoma twister
MOORE, Okla. (AP) Emergency crews searched the broken remnants of an Oklahoma City suburb Tuesday for survivors of a massive tornado that flattened homes and demolished an elementary school. At least 24 people were killed, including at least nine children, and those numbers were expected to climb.
As the sun rose over the shattered community of Moore, the state medical examiner's office cut the estimated death toll by more than half but warned that the number was likely to climb again. Gov. Mary Fallin said an untold number of people were still missing.
"We will rebuild and we will regain our strength," said Fallin, who went on a flyover of the area and described it as "hard to look at." »Read Full Article(1)

Time Warner Cable scores lowest on cable TV customer satisfaction, report shows
Time Warner Cable had the lowest customer satisfaction score in an industry-wide quarterly cable TV survey released Tuesday.
The quarterly American Customer Satisfaction Index report released Tuesday shows consumers are generally becoming more satisfied with their cable TV companies, in particular the picture quality.
But Time Warner Cable's scores declined 5%, the most of any provider. That gave Time Warner a 60 satisfaction rating on a scale of 100 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to a score of 63 in 2012, according to the report. »Read Full Blog Post(13)
Pension plan changes should save city millions
The Common Council on Tuesday unanimously agreed to make changes to the city's retirement benefits plan that should save the city as much as $90 million over the next 20 years.
The changes would affect only new employees who enroll as members after Jan. 1, 2014. The changes would also affect elected officials, but not public-service employees.
Ald. Michael Murphy, who led a pension task that worked on the plan for 18 months, said changes to the plan were necessary, even though the city's system has been ranked the best in the country among 62 cities studied. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

County officials warn legislators about cutting child support enforcement
Madison — As state lawmakers consider cutting local child support enforcement by 25% next year, county officials say this ongoing trend is already taking the pressure off deadbeat parents and endangering millions of dollars in additional federal money.
Members of the Legislature's powerful Joint Finance Committee are set Tuesday to consider the budget cuts proposed by Gov. Scott Walker, the result of declining funding at the federal level that has been trickling down to the state and county agencies over the past two years.
The previous funding cuts are already having an effect on the state system designed to help lift children out of poverty and reduce costs to taxpayers by ensuring that parents with the means, and not taxpayers, are the ones providing medical care and other needs for those children. »Read Full Article(21)
Daly's Pen Shop to close at Grand Avenue
Daly's Pen Shop, a downtown Milwaukee fixture since 1924, will close its location in the Shops of Grand Avenue at the end of the year.
The firm, which sells fine writing instruments and describes itself as the country's oldest pen store, is not going out of business. Daly's opened a second location, at 7632 W. Burleigh St., about a year ago. It will continue there and with its online trade, which represents about 70% of sales, owner Brad Bodart said.
But the decision to shutter the Grand Avenue shop will cost the long-struggling mall its most venerable and, perhaps, its most locally famous tenant. Daly's was doing business in the mall's Plankinton Building for roughly 60 years before the Grand Avenue was even created.
Daly's current lease at the mall runs through Dec. 31, Bodart said.
MPS spokesman: Thornton to stay. (For now)
Milwaukee Public Schools Superintendent Gregory Thornton intends to stay in Milwaukee through the duration of his contract, which terminates at the end of June 2015, a district spokesperson said Tuesday.
A rumor was circulating widely last week that Thornton could be in contention for a position leading the challenged Prince George's County Public Schools in Maryland -- a rumor the superintendent did not deny when asked about it directly by the Journal Sentinel last week.
That set off much speculation by those in education circles.
But spokesman Tony Tagliavia said Tuesday that Thornton intends to stay in Milwaukee through the end of his contract. He said the superintendent indicated those plans on Monday during an event at South Division High School, after news reporters asked him to respond to the issue.(1)

Muskego-Norway School Board split on system that would ditch letter grades
Muskego — Once again, a new grading system proposal that would not only trade letter grades of "A" through "F" for numbers but would also de-emphasize homework got mixed reviews by the Muskego-Norway School Board.
On Monday at the board's second consideration of the idea, the proposal continued to be dogged by doubts that colleges would accept the number grading. Tammy Gibbons, director of school performance, said a school district in Maine studied that and found that colleges that saw students' transcripts treated them just like other students coming from traditional grading systems.
Some board members didn't buy that, however, including Rick Petfalski who said a unique grading system throws more work onto colleges that would have to evaluate the grading system to see how it fits in with others. That process might not be done as well as it should be, he said. »Read Full Article

Scott Walker tells Connecticut GOP most Americans on his side
story by The Hartford Courant.
Gov. Scott Walker told Connecticut Republicans on Monday that most people back his efforts to remake government and take on public employee unions, according to a"The president and his allies, and I would argue the governor and some of his allies here, measure success in government by how many people are dependent on the government,'' Walker said, repeating a statement he has used frequently.
"We measure success in government by just the opposite: by how many fewer people are dependent on government, not because we kicked them out to the street, not because we pushed then out to the curb, but because we understand that true freedom and prosperity come when we empower people to take control of their own lives and their own destinies."
Walker is being criticized for spending three of four evenings out of state this week for fund-raising events as Wisconsin lawmakers work on the state budget. (76)

AP photographer sees kids pulled from Okla. school
MOORE, Okla. (AP) I left the office in Oklahoma City as soon as I saw the tornado warnings on TV. I had photographed about a dozen twisters in the past decade, and knew that if I didn't get in my car before the funnel cloud hit, it would be too late.
By the time I reached Moore, all I could see was destruction. I walked toward a group of people standing by a heaping mound of rubble too big to be a home. A woman told me it had been a school.
I expected chaos as I approached the piles of bricks and twisted metal where Plaza Towers Elementary once stood. Instead, it was calm and orderly as police and firefighters pulled children out one by one from beneath a large chunk of a collapsed wall. »Read Full Article

The reloadable MoneyPak debit cards can be purchased at many local stores. Consumers typically use them to pay PayPal accounts and phone, cable or credit card bills. But scammers are using them to con consumers, the BBB said in an alert Monday.
"Fraudsters will call or email you saying that you won a lottery or sweepstakes, or offering a product or service at a discount price," the alert said. "Then they say you need to pay fees to get your prize, or pre-pay for the merchandise via MoneyPak. Next, they ask for the 14-digit code found on the back of the card. Once you've given them that code, you've given them instant access, and the crooks can transfer your MoneyPak funds to their own prepaid cards." »Read Full Blog Post

Brozek, 43, was taken by Dane County Sheriff's deputies to mental health facilities in November 2004 and June 2008, the State Journal reports. He was fatally shot Friday during a standoff when deputies called Madison police to assist with an eviction notice.

GOP measure seeks to limit local recall elections
Madison — It would be harder to recall a local Wisconsin elected official from office under a proposal up for a hearing before a legislative committee.
The Republican-sponsored bill is up for a hearing Tuesday before the Assembly's Committee on Campaigns and Elections. It would require anyone who petitions to recall a city, village, town, town sanitary district, or school district official to prove that official has been charged with committing a crime or committing an ethics violation.
Current law allows people to circulate a recall petition as long as they claim the recall is related to the official's responsibilities.
Robert Kraig from the Milwaukee-based advocacy group Citizen Action opposes the measure, saying it will reduce elected officials' accountability to the public. (22)

Report: Job training rule for food stamps would trim rolls by half
Madison — Requiring a job — or basic training for one — from able-bodied participants in the state's food stamp program would cause about half of them to drop out, a total of tens of thousands of people statewide and 14,500 in Milwaukee, according to a new report.
The new projections come from the Legislature's nonpartisan budget office, which last week released its analysis of Gov. Scott Walker's plan to require 62,700 able-bodied adults without children in Wisconsin's FoodShare program to work or attend bare-bones job training. The Legislative Fiscal Bureau puts the cost of implementing the program at $35.8 million over two years, including $16.8 million for state taxpayers, and the rest by federal taxpayers. As part of the move, 36 state jobs would be added.
If the budget office is right, and 31,300 people were to drop out of FoodShare, it would reduce benefits provided by federal taxpayers by about $72 million a year. »Read Full Article(925)
Trial begins for raw-milk vendor
Baraboo — The criminal trial of Sauk County farmer Vernon Hershberger, charged with offenses related to the sale of raw milk, began Monday with prosecutors arguing that he flouted the law by not having licenses for running a retail food store and a dairy plant.
Defense attorneys said Hershberger didn't have the licenses because he only produced food for people connected with his farm through an ownership program rather than the general public.
The Hershberger case is expected to last four or five days in Sauk County Circuit Court. If convicted, the 41-year-old farmer faces up to a year in jail and thousands of dollars in fines on charges related to the sale of raw, unpasteurized milk and other products from his Grazin' Acres farm in Loganville. »Read Full Article(15)

Moody's downgrades ratings of 15 largest banks
Moody's credit rating agency downgrades the ratings of 15 largest banks and financial institutions.
Credit ratings of several American financial institutions: Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan, as well as several British banks: Royal Bank of Scotland, Barclays and HSBC, have been downgraded.
«All of the banks that have been affected are related to significant risks of potential losses because of the instability on the capital market,»- mentioned in the announcement of the Executive Director on global banking system affairs of Moody's Greg Bauer.
Ratings of Credit Suisse, UBS, BNP Pariabs, Credit Agricole, Societe Generale, Deutsche Bank, Royal Bank of Canada and Morgan Stanley were also downgraded, BBC reports.
Moody's claims that it acknowledges the "clear intention of the government of the world to reduce support of creditors", but adds that they have yet to determine the conditions under which they are prepared to allow the bankruptcy of banks.
The agency put up a review with a probability of downgrading ratings of other banks. Their ratings will be downgraded, if the governments stop supporting them.
«The biggest surprise- is the downgrade of Credit Suisse by three points at once, which no one expected,»- says Mark Grant, Executive Director of Southwest Securities.
In the last weeks, Moody's downgraded the ratings of many European banks, including Germany, Austria, Denmark, Sweden and Finland. Credit ratings of banks from Greece, Spain and Italy – countries hit the most by the debt crisis, were downgraded multiple times by most credit rating agencies.

Series: Ephesians 4:1-6: A Call of Christian Unity
This series discusses the importance of unity among Christ's believers. Ross Hastings, an expert in the areas of both chemistry and pastoral theology, is eager to see the church seek out unity rather than divisions in this science/faith interface. Unpacking Ephesians 4:1-6, he explains that unity in Christ through the Holy Spirit is the primary concern of both Jesus as seen in John 17 and Paul in Ephesians 4, making this matter pressing. He urges all believers to be in agreement that God indeed created, yet to be in dialogue over how that creative process occurred.
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Evangelicalism and Adaptation
I look my students dead straight in the eye and tell them that no matter what, debate within the intellectual sphere cannot and should not take away or diminish the importance of the personal nature of their faith. The intellect, to use a scientific phrase, while necessary for the faith, is not sufficient
Raising Children to Pursue Truth
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter articulates the importance of raising a child that can garner knowledge from a variety of sources and to be able to study science with integrity—that is, to be able to pursue the truth to where it leads.
Science, Christianity, and Homeschooling
Resilient learners and a robust faith can handle challenges. But the faith of the students my professor described was different— strong, but brittle; it did not have the resilience that comes through testing.
Science and Faith on a Secular Campus

Series: The Meaning of mîn in the Hebrew Old Testament
The related ideas of the "fixity of species" and "natural kinds" have been prominent in the science and faith conversation. Some Christians take Genesis to mean that God created (bara) fixed species (mîn). But does the text truly indicate such a concept? Biblical scholar Dr. Richard Hess looks at the Biblical context and meaning of the Hebrew mîn, and suggests that when Christians use it to frame our understanding of the entire created order, we may be asking too much of this single word.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
Series: But Does it Move? John Lennox on Science and the Bible
Taken from Chapter 2 of John Lennox's book Seven Days That Divide The World, this three part series looks at scripture interpretation. Lennox looks especially at the Galileo controversy regarding the movement of the Earth and why our own interpretations do not necessarily call into question the authority of the Scripture.
Series: The Genesis of Everything
Theologian, historian and Christian apologist Dr. John P. Dickson addresses the history and interpretation of Genesis 1. Making no claims about human biological origins, Dickson urges us to treat the early chapters of Genesis as a literary and historical statement, and listen carefully to it on those terms.
Series: Thinking Aloud Together
This series by Scot McKnight relates a lecture given at the 2012 BioLogos workshop for Evangelical theologians, scientists, authors and pastors. He explains that evolution is taught in public schools, and therefore must be addressed by Evangelical pastors in the churches as well. This will educate a whole generation of upcoming scientists on the issues of science and faith. Overall, he encourages scientists and pastors to collaborate on the issue as they rethink the long held interpretations of Genesis 1-3.
Teaching Science in Tennessee
Last week, Tennessee legislators approved a bill on science education (the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act) that has stoked controversy around the country.
Why should Christians consider evolutionary creation?
Because evolution is a challenging subject, many Christians are tempted to simply ignore or reject it. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and with our relationships with other people—believers and non-Christians alike. First, Christians should study evolution because (like all the natural sciences) it is the study of God's creation. Creation itself is a complementary revelation to what is communicated in the Scriptures, and through it God shows how and when he brought about life, to his honor and glory. Studying the creation is also an invitation into a deeper understanding of the attributes and character of Father, Son and Spirit. Second, considering evolutionary creation aids the Church in its gospel mission, supporting young Christians in their faith, helping answer critics, and equipping us to engage effectively in the wider culture. An anti-evolution attitude can harm Christian young people by presenting them with a false choice between pursuing science OR holding to faith. Similarly, a hostile attitude towards evolution can hinder evangelism when seekers hear that they must reject science to follow Christ. On the other hand, studying evolution as a God-ordained process helps Christians refute arguments that science encourages an atheistic worldview. Furthermore, as the church engages front-page issues raised by the rapid growth in science, medicine, and technology, a Christ-centered voice in such areas as bioethics will be stronger if based on a thorough understanding of the natural sciences, including evolution.
