There is a growing shortage of qualified forensic pathologists in the US. The specialty was first recognized by the American Board of Pathology in 1959, and the number of physicians entering the specialty rose steadily until quite recently. It is currently the case, however, that more forensic pathologists retire each year than are trained. And while there is an overall decline in the number of hospital autopsies performed in the US each year, the number of medicolegal autopsies required continues to grow with the population.
With this in mind, the department of pathology at Wake Forest School of Medicine has undertaken to train physicians in this essential specialty. This fellowship is one year in duration and provides the opportunity to perform about 6-8 autopsies per week, including scene investigation and trial testimony when possible.
In addition to frequent opportunities to participate in in-house and local conferences and seminars, fellows will attend (at department expense) the annual meeting of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, and are expected to author or co-author at least one paper.
Upon completion of the program, fellows will be able to perform a competent medicolegal investigation from start to finish on cases of homicide, suicide, accident, and natural causes; in addition, they will be able to conduct the professional and administrative operations required of a forensic pathologist and medical examiner. This program meets the training requirements for the American Board of Pathology's certification examination in Forensic Pathology.
The Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center employs an outstanding staff of American Board of Pathology-qualified forensic pathologists. There are five such professionals on the faculty, all of whom are assigned to the Pathology Department's Autopsy Service. As primarily academic pathologists, they are particularly qualified to train a forensic fellow.
Dr. Tiffany O'Neill joined our faculty on July 1, 2016
after completing her forensic pathology fellowship with us from July 2015-June
2016. Dr. O'Neill is certified by the
American Board of Pathology in Forensic Pathology and Anatomic and Clinical
Each forensic fellow handles 200 to 250 medicolegal autopsies in his or her year of training, and will experience on-scene investigations, including examination of the body before it has been disturbed. The Medical Center has a remarkably rich variety of cases referred from about 32 of the 100 counties of North Carolina. The office autopsy caseload includes about 10% homicides, 11% suicides, 49% accidents and 5% undetermined manner. The remaining 44% are ruled to be of natural causes.
In addition to training in the autopsy suite, the forensic fellow will receive instruction through on-line modules covering other forensic science branches. The fellow will also have opportunity to work with consultants in anthropology and odontology.
The forensic fellow will attend regular weekly conferences in which recent cases are reviewed; in-hospital deaths that are medical examiner cases are presented at the trauma conference. In addition, he or she will present a lecture at the annual medicolegal death investigation seminar, attended by local medical examiners, law enforcement personnel, prosecutors, and defense attorneys.
The 2016-2017 academic year's base salary for this fellowship is $58,474. Fellows receive, in addition, malpractice insurance coverage, life insurance, long-term disability insurance, and hospital insurance.
Winston-Salem, founded in 1766, began as a religious community of Moravians who emigrated from Europe. Their traditions are strong in the present industrial community and are particularly reflected in the considerable emphasis on the arts in community life. The city proper has 150,000 people; the county 265,000. There are four institutions of higher learning (Wake Forest University, Salem College, Winston-Salem State University and North Carolina School of the Arts), a symphony orchestra, opera and theater companies, and numerous art galleries. The area offers a variety of outdoor sporting activities, including golf, bicycling, fishing, hiking, and skiing, and Wake Forest University provides major college sports events of all types. Housing is available near the medical school, and the cost of living in the area is relatively low.
Formal written evaluations of fellows by the teaching staff are completed and discussed with the fellow at least once every six months. In addition, fellows are expected to submit written evaluations of the program.
Forensic Pathology Fellowship Applications* will be accepted from MDs and DOs who will have valid medical licensure in North Carolina by the start of their fellowship year. Fellows are expected to receive appointment as a county medical examiner and designated pathologist by the North Carolina OCME.

7 hurt in 8-vehicle crash
Minor injuries reported
SHREWSBURY, Vt. —
Vermont State Police say five people suffered minor injuries in a chain-reaction crash on Route 103 in Shrewsbury.
Police say three of the vehicles were moving during the crash at about 2:45 p.m. Saturday while five parked vehicles were hit by others involved in the crash.
Police say a northbound vehicle crossed the centerline, hitting a southbound car. The crash caused a chain reaction involving another moving vehicle and five vehicles parked at a car dealership.
A motorist in one of the moving vehicles had to be freed from her car by emergency personnel.

The goal of my research program is to elucidate the fundamental nature and astronomical consequences of astrophysical black holes. I do this via a number of independent projects, spanning scales from the horizon to the universe, each of which are connected by the critical role played by the extreme physical conditions near black hole horizons.
My current focus is the interpretation and analysis of horizon-resolving millimeter wave observations of the supermassive black holes at the centers of the Milky Way and M87. These observations provide unprecedented access to the immediate vicinity of the horizon, and therefore to the effects of strong gravity near black holes. Hence they provide an ideal opportunity to probe both the high-energy astrophysics powering some of the most energetic phenomena in the universe and test the validity of general relativity in the strongly non-linear limit. This work involves developing both the models and the analysis techniques, often combining the high-resolution radio data with additional observations in multiple wavebands, to extract answers to the physically relevant questions.
In addition, I am also involved with efforts to: Assess the cosmological impact of the very-high energy gamma ray emission from a subset of active galactic nuclei (AGNs, accreting supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies), capable of heating the universe by orders of magnitude; Study the magnetic structure of the ultra-relativistic jets powered by AGN via coupling multi-wavelength polarization observations with state-of-the-art simulations; Probe the dynamics and potential signatures of white dwarf encounters with intermediate mass black holes, which show promise as a potential astronomical signature of the presence of this latter, heretofore undetected, class of black hole; and Measure the statistical properties of Galactic stellar-mass black holes, the end points of massive star evolution, via potentially directly imaging microlensing events.

Adidas' Ultra Boost is one of the best sneakers on the market.
Since Kanye West's performed in an entirely white pair of the sneakers at the Billboard Music Awards back in 2015, the Ultra Boost has blurred the line between fashion and performance sneaker more than few others. It's understated silhouette, simple colorways and woven Primeknit upper makes it the most stylish performance running sneaker made in recent memory (especially when worn with track pants). Most importantly, of the dozens of pairs of shoes I've worn in the past couple years, the Ultra Boost is decidedly the most comfortable. The full length Boost foam-lined sole kinda looks like you're walking on styrofoam. It feels like you're walking on memory foam.
But the original low top iteration of the DC / SK8 ENCORE POLO BLACK IRIS ADYKT03104-BTL0, retails at a hefty $180, in the upper price echelons of performance running shoes and certainly closer to luxury sneaker pricing than casual. Now, how would you feel if you added on an ankle sock and $40 to the price tag?
Well, Adidas did just that with the Basketball Kobe-0254, released back in September of this year. Billed as a fall and winter weather-variant of the Ultra Boost, the ATR sports an ankle-height sock for increased stability and splash protection, plus a deeper-grooved rubber outsole for better traction while running in wet weather. The original's plastic lace cage is replaced with Primeknit fabric, plus a smaller box that sits atop the shoe. Finally, the ATR comes in darker colorways Nike Free44-0683,GARAGE / IDOL SLASH S/S BLACK,Nike Flyknit-0079, as to not show winter muck after a damp run. Adidas sent me a pair to review, so I took them not only to the damp streets of Portland, but to the streets of New York.
Nike wonen Flyknit-0041,,DC / REBEL ZH 3 VARSITY BLUE EDYFT03096-PRR0,Basketball James-0307,,Basketball James-0294,DC / KIDS COMBINE ACTION S/S BLACK EDBZT03192-KVJ0,Basketball Kobe-0159,.
The original Ultra Boost is an extremely popular fashion sneaker, and new colorways are regularly sold out online and in store (check Portland's ROXY / SUMMER RULES ZH HERITAGE HEATHER ERJFT03381-SGRH, for rare pairs!). The ATR keeps the original's subdued aesthetics, but the midtop construction adds a new design element which I think makes the sneaker well-suited for styling with jeans as well as athleticwear Basketball Durant-0134,HAND SPINNER / 3D GOLD / BLACK,Basketball Hyperdunk-0028,.
As for the on-foot feel, the ATR is comfortable, but not quite as comfortable as the original Ultra Boost. Though the ATR's tougher sole provides better traction than the original it leads to an on-foot feeling that isn't quite as heavenly.
Further, the shoe feels slightly tighter-fitting and more socklike than the original. The ankle sock doesn't overheat the foot, but when tied tight, the tops of my feet develop a pinchy feeling after a few hours that doesn't Air Force LOW-0134,GARAGE / A-Z16401 MATTED BLACK / GREY A-Z16401,Air Force LOW-0044, when left untied (the laces don't reach the ground) or tied loosely.
As far as long-term wear goes, I took my ATRs to the streets of New York on a recent trip to test them out. They held up nicely during what I'd consider an everyday amount of activity (~2-3 miles of walking broken up with extended sitting breaks), my feet not getting particularly sore despite a long stroll through VANS / SPICOLI 4 SHADES SPLIT GREEN FROSTED-SILVER MIRROR V00LC0M29,. But on two particularly grueling days, the first, an hours-long punk show on wood and concrete floors, and the second, Nike Free44-0383,DC / SNAPPY SNAP FATIGUE GREEN ADYHA00058-CQY0,Basketball Rose-0054,, my dogs were certainly barkin' when I returned home. Though I don't consider those days representative of normal use, the ATR, despite above-average comfort, is not a miracle worker.
Now, what about actually running in my running shoes? I'm not a hardcore or regular runner: My cardiovascular health is slightly above average at best, but I can put away 5 kilometers without trouble, and I did just that on the treadmill and on Portland's waterfront.
On the treadmill, the ATR provided a solid, comfortable ride. Perhaps it is because running on a treadmill is excruciatingly boring, but I found myself paying more attention to my body during this run, and I noted that the ankle sock kept my feet feeling more secured than with my normal low top running shoe BURTON / KILO BP 27L TRUE BLACK 136491-002,.
However, the ATR really shined when running outside on a blustery November evening. Nike Free44-0296,DC / BACKSTACK BP BLACK EDYBP03129-KVJ0,Basketball Hyperflight-0021,, partially down the Eastbank Esplanade and back on a damp day. It wasn't raining, but it had rained plenty earlier, and the path was slick and covered with fallen leaves.
And I just completely disappeared into my run Basketball LOW-0015,NIKE / SB SHELTER SKATEBOARDING BP BLACK / BLACK / WHITE BA5222-010,Adidas Campus AS - Cardinal/ Metallic gold/ Running white Factory Outlet,. Maybe it was because the Old Town sign was extra-glittery that evening, but, Adidas LA Trainer - Black/ Light Scarlet/ White New Arrivals,2017 Cheap Nike Clothing Uk Men's Nike Lunareclipse 5 Blue Lagoon/Black/Dove Grey/White Shoes Canada YDE0401916,Adidas Seeley Mid - Black/Running White/Blue Shops, as one wants when on a fairly intense run, I barely noticed the shoes on my feet as I jogged along the Willamette.Adidas Toe Touch Lace - White/ White Bluebird The Cheapest,Men's Nike Pro 3/4 Length Compression Tights (Industrial Blue),Adidas ZX700 - Light Onix/ Ray Green/ Dark Indigo Outlet, I had no issues with tightness, and the traction was excellent along wet concrete and the ostensibly slick floating metal bridge of the Esplanade. The only thing I really noticed was a slight bounce between my foot and the sole as I ran.
Now, is all of this worth the $220 price tag? If your running shoe or fashion sneaker budget is high, then Air Jordan 6 Retro (BG) - White/Carmin-Black New Arrival,Men's OCEAN CURRENT Night Before New York Short-Sleeve Tee (BLACK),Asics Gel-Lyte V - Navy/Burgundy The Cheapest, nabs you a stylish, high-performing variant on a cool sneaker that'll help you push through Portland's blusteriest winter days. Yet, if you aren't committed to winter running, $220 is a high price to pay for a sneaker that mostly just looks cool. Converse All Star Hi - White Online Store,Men's REEF Phantoms Sport Sandals Brown (BROWN),Huf Mateo - Black Floral The Cheapest, As someone who gets my cardio in elsewhere, I wouldn't personally spend the $220 on a performance shoe which I am not using for its intended purpose.
Then again, I will be taking my next few runs to the streets in my ATRs as long as it isn't raining sideways.

Vernon Wells went 2-for-4 with three RBI and a run scored to help the New York Yankees complete a four-game sweep of the Minnesota Twins with a 9-5 triumph Thursday at Target Field.
Ichiro Suzuki finished a homer shy of the cycle and plated a pair of runs to go with two runs scored, while Luis Cruz and Zoilo Almonte added two hits and an RBI apiece for the Yankees, who swept a four-game set from the Twins in Minnesota for the first time since April 18-21, 2003.
David Phelps (6-5) yielded four runs on eight hits while striking out five over 6 1/3 innings to earn the victory.
Justin Morneau smacked a pair of solo home runs for the Twins, with Brian Dozier, Joe Mauer and Pedro Florimon each adding an RBI in the setback, Minnesota's fifth in a row.
"Offensively we really didn't do an awful lot," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "We kept battling through it and got ourselves within striking distance, but they finished it off there at the end."
Kyle Gibson (1-1), making his second career start, was shelled for eight runs on 11 hits over 5 1/3 frames to absorb the loss.
The Yankees jumped on Gibson in the first, as Suzuki smacked a leadoff double, moved to third on Almonte's single, and scored when Robinson Cano lifted a sacrifice fly to left field to make it 1-0.
After Travis Hafner doubled to left, Wells ripped a base hit down the left- field line to score Almonte and Hafner for a 3-0 cushion.
The Yankees tacked on two more runs in the third, as Hafner was hit by a pitch to start the frame before moving to second on a wild pitch. Wells then stroked a double to left to score Hafner before Cruz laced a single to left to plate Wells for a 5-0 lead.
Minnesota finally cracked the scoreboard in the fourth when Morneau launched a one-out blast into the right-field seats to make it 5-1.
However, New York pushed four runs across in the sixth to open an eight-run cushion. Lyle Overbay worked a leadoff walk and Cruz followed with a double before Alberto Gonzalez's single to right scored Overbay for a 6-1 edge.
"I feel very happy, very pleased to finally get the opportunity to be able to support my team," Gonzalez said through an interpreter.
Cruz was thrown out at the plate on Austin Romine's fielder's choice to second before Brian Duensing was summoned from the bullpen to face Suzuki, who scorched a triple to center to score two more runs.
Almonte capped the inning with an RBI groundout to third to make it 9-1.
Minnesota made things interesting in the late innings, as Chris Parmelee and Aaron Hicks started the seventh with consecutive singles. After Parmelee moved to third on a fly out, Florimon laced a single to right to bring the Twins within 9-2 and chase Phelps from the contest.
Joba Chamberlain entered from the bullpen and served up a run-scoring single to Dozier before he was lifted in favor of Boone Logan.
Mauer lifted Logan's third offering into left field for a sacrifice fly to make it 9-4, but Logan got Oswaldo Arcia to fly out to left to end the inning.
The Twins continued to chip away in the eighth, as Morneau led off with his second blast of the day into right-center field to trim the deficit to 9-5.
Trevor Plouffe then singled and Parmelee worked a walk to end Logan's outing, as Shawn Kelley took over on the mound.
Kelley fanned Hicks and Clete Thomas for the first two outs before grounding out pinch-hitter Ryan Doumit to escape the threat.
David Robertson retired the Twins in order in the ninth to secure the victory.
Game Notes
It was New York's sixth sweep of the season and second of at least four games ... The Yankees improved to 14-3 against the AL Central this season ... Cano finished 0-for-4, snapping a string of six straight multi-hit games ... Minnesota fell to 28-31 all-time on Independence Day ... Minnesota went 2- for-9 with runners in scoring position and left seven runners on base.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recently issued a warning about the dangers of button batteries; as their use increases, so do battery-related injuries and deaths. And while the frequency of incidents of accidental swallowing has not increased, there has been a nearly sevenfold increase in the percent of button battery ingestions resulting in a severe injuries or fatalities since 1985, according to a recent study conducted by Dr. Toby Litovitz of the National Capital Poison Center in Washington, D.C.—due largely to the increasing popularity of the 20mm lithium battery.
Plus: First Aid for a Choking Child
Children younger than 4 and senior adults are most often injured in battery-swallowing incidents. Young children gain access to the batteries through common household items like remote controls, calculators, flashlights, or toys. Should they swallow a battery, it may pass through the intestine, but more often it will become lodged in the throat or intestine and can generate and release hydroxide, resulting in dangerous chemical burns in as little as two hours. To make matters worse, adults are often unaware that a child has swallowed a battery, making immediate diagnosis and treatment more difficult. Symptoms include an upset stomach and fever, but there may be no symptoms at all.
Plus: Troubleshooting Toy Safety Hazards
The CPSC recommends the following steps to prevent unintentional battery ingestion:
- Discard button batteries carefully.
- Do not allow children to play with button batteries, and keep button batteries out of your child's reach.
- Caution hearing aid users to keep hearing aids and batteries out of the reach of children.
- Never put button batteries in your mouth for any reason as they are easily swallowed accidentally.
- Always check medications before ingesting them. Adults have swallowed button batteries mistaken for pills or tablets.
- Keep remotes and other electronics out of your child's reach if the battery compartments do not have a screw to secure them. Use tape to help secure the battery compartment.
- If a button battery is ingested, immediately seek medical attention. The National Battery Ingestion Hotline is available anytime at (202) 625-3333 (call collect if necessary), or call your poison center at (800) 222-1222.

WINTER HAVEN | Florida citrus officials and U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson have opened up a northern front in their campaign to investigate whether Brazilian juice processors violated federal trade and tariff laws last year by shipping orange juice to Canada for re-importation to the United States.
WINTER HAVEN | Florida citrus officials and U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson have opened up a northern front in their campaign to investigate whether Brazilian juice processors violated federal trade and tariff laws last year by shipping orange juice to Canada for re-importation to the United States.
Nelson on Wednesday met in Washington with Gary Doer, Canada's ambassador to the U.S., to discuss the allegations, according to a statement from the senator's office.
Doer "pledged to look into it," the statement said.
At the very least, Doer's statement will put political pressure on U.S. Customs and Border Protection to conduct a transparent investigation of the allegation, said Matt McGrath, a lawyer with the Washington firm of Barnes, Richardson & Colburn, which is representing Lakeland-based Florida Citrus Mutual in pursuing the matter.
"It's the political level talking to the political level, and sometimes that opens information flows," McGrath said. "The way it is now, these investigations tend to go into a black box."
Citrus Mutual filed its complaint in April with Customs, part of the Department of Homeland Security. At Mutual's request, Nelson, D-Fla., followed up on the complaint in an Aug. 31 letter to Customs.
Customs Assistant Commissioner Michael Yeager responded in a Sept. 19 letter that Nelson provided to The Ledger.
"We are in the process of reviewing imports of orange juice from Canada to ensure compliance in all aspects of trade law, including the qualification of preferential duty treatment under NAFTA, country-of-origin requirements and the potential circumvention of anti-dumping duties," Yeager wrote.
The complaint centers around the federal tariff on Brazilian OJ imported into the U.S. Canada does not pay the tariff as a partner in the North American Free Trade Agreement.
The NAFTA treaty also provides other countries cannot avoid paying tariffs by exporting products to Canada or Mexico, the other NAFTA partner, then shipping them to the U.S., McGrath said.
McGrath and Citrus Mutual officials launched their investigation into Brazilian trade practices after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced in January 2012 it would test all OJ imports for carbendazim, an illegal fungicide in the U.S. but widely used in Brazil.
It denied entry to any OJ product with a trace of carbendazim, which has been shown to cause cancer and birth defects.
The FDA issued reports on OJ shipments denied entry to the U.S. because of carbendazim until May, when it halted testing.
Many of those shipments came from Canada, which has no commercial orange growers.
Florida citrus officials concluded the carbendazim-tainted OJ shipped from Canada must have originated in Brazil. But the Canadian companies declared those OJ shipments "NAFTA origin," which means exempt from tariffs, McGrath said.
U.S. Department of Commerce figures show Canadian OJ shipments claiming a NAFTA exemption doubled from nearly 14 million liters in 2009 to almost 28 million liters in 2011, he said.
"The amount of orange juice from Canada to the U.S. doubled from 2011 to 2012," Nelson's statement said.
"We expect the ambassador to gather some facts and get back with us on whether and how Canada moves forward on this issue," Dan McLaughlin, Nelson's press secretary, said in an email. "One of the things we want to know, of course, is whether Brazil is processing much more OJ in Canada in recent years."
An official from CitrusBR, the Brazilian processors' trade group, denied the allegation companies there had violated U.S. law in an email to The Ledger in October. The statement noted Brazilian OJ processors have no control over products after delivery to the importer.
CitrusBR officials could not be reached to comment Wednesday on the Canadian action.
Customs officials indicated their investigation could take up to 12 months, McGrath said, and they've released no information so far.
That's not unusual, he added.
Customs officials do not often disclose the results of investigations to the public or even organizations who've filed the complaint, McGrath said. They usually cite federal laws against the disclosure of private company information.
The Canadian government likely is already cooperating with the U.S. investigation, he said, but pressure from Nelson and Doer could force them to disclose the results.
If Customs finds unintentional violations of U.S. trade law, the importers could be required only to pay back tariffs, McGrath said. Customs can levy penalties equal to two to four times the unpaid tariffs for intentional violations.

Macintouch pointed me to a blog entry at PlasticBag.org related to the role of computers in the war over digital intellectual property rights. The author believes Apple has already staked out its territory in this matter. After a series of examples, he explains the following:
The reasons for all this, of course, are that – for good or ill – at the moment copyrighted material and intellectual property are endangered and cornered beasts anyway. As yet no-one really knows the effects of this development, but I think it is clear to all concerned that (whether or not it is really happening at the moment) the gradual increase in technology, bandwidth and storage capacity provides an enormous potential for simply routing around traditional media-distribution outlets. Whether this will hurt the entertainment and software industries is as yet unclear – because as yet they mostly haven't even tried experimenting with different types of consumer-interaction – but whether it hurts them or not, it will certainly have an impact.
In my opinion Apple sees such battles as essentially over already, and has moved in a completely different direction. Why try to sell the intellectual property itself when you can simply sell the best platform for distributing it?

Suffolk, ss. Division of Administrative Law Appeals
Henry Erelli,
v. Docket No. CR-06-602
Teachers' Retirement System,
Appearance for Petitioner:
Pro Se
44 Rustic Lane
Reading, MA 01867
Appearance for Respondent:
James C. O'Leary, Esquire
Deputy General Counsel
Teachers' Retirement System
One Charles Park
Cambridge, MA 02142
Administrative Magistrate:
Judithann Burke
Pursuant to G.L. c. 32 s. 16(4), the Petitioner, Henry Erelli, is appealing from the August 26, 2006 decision of the Respondent, Teachers' Retirement System (TRS), denying his request to include monies he earned for working an additional two days during the school years 2003-2006 as regular compensation for retirement purposes.
(Exhibit 1). The appeal was timely filed. (Exhibit 2). A hearing was held on March 27, 2008 at the offices of the Division of Administrative Law Appeals (DALA), 98 North Washington Street, Boston, MA.
At the hearing, five exhibits were marked. The Petitioner testified and argued in his own behalf. The TRS stated its argument for the record. One tape was made of the proceedings.
Based upon the testimony and documents submitted at the hearing in the above-entitled matter, I hereby render the following findings of fact:
1. The Petitioner, Henry Erelli, is a retired member of the TRS with an effective retirement date of July 1, 2006.
2. Prior to his retirement, the Petitioner worked as the Coordinator of Community Services in the Brookline Public Schools. This position was covered by the 2003-2006 teachers' collective bargaining agreement (CBA), and the Petitioner was paid in accordance with the salary schedule set forth in the CBA. (Exhibit 3).
3. The Petitioner also performed the additional duty of Time and Learning Coordinator. Both this additional duty and the stipend for it appear in Appendix B, Section B2 of the 2003-2006 CBA. (Exhibits 3 and 4).
4. The number of additional days spelled out in the CBA is five at the per diem rate of the Time and Learning Coordinator. The amount of pay representing these five days was included in the Petitioner's regular compensation when his retirement allowance was calculated. (Exhibits 1, 3 and 4).
5. On February 15, 2007, Stephen Barrasso, Director of Human Resources in the Brookline Public Schools, reported to DALA First Magistrate Fletcher that an internal document was generated on December 17, 2003 that authorized a change in the number of additional days of the Time and Learning Coordinator from five to seven. Mr. Barrasso indicated that this provision could not be included in the then-current CBA, as that document became effective on September 1, 2003. (Exhibit 5).
6. In a letter dated August 26, 2006, the TRS notified the Petitioner that it would only include monies earned for five additional days in his regular compensation. (Exhibit 1).
7. The Petitioner filed a timely appeal. (Exhibit 2).
After a careful review of the testimony and documents in this case, I have concluded that the Petitioner is not entitled to prevail in this appeal. G.L. c. 32 s. 5(2)(a) provides that a superannuation retirement allowance shall be "based on the average rate of regular compensation received by such member" during the member's last three (3) years, or highest paid three (3) consecutive years of creditable service.
G.L. c. 32 .s. 1 defines "regular compensation" as:
salary, wages, or other compensation…lawfully determined for the individual service of an employee…In the case of a teacher employed in a public day school who is a member of the teachers' retirement system, salary payable under the terms of an annual contract for additional services in such a school…shall be regarded as regular compensation…
807 CMR 6.01 and 807 CMR 6.02 became effective on May 6, 1994.
807 CMR 6.01 provides:
For the purpose of 807 CMR 6.00, an annual contract shall have the following meaning: In the case of a teacher, the annual contract is the collective bargaining agreement for the unit which governs the rights of the members whether it is a one-year or a multi-year agreement…
807 CMR 6.02(1) provides:
(1) The term regular compensation as defined by G.L. c. 32 s. 1 and further defined by 840 CMR 15.03 shall include:…
(b) Salary payable under the terms of an annual contract for additional services so long as:
- The additional services are set forth in the annual contract;…
- The remuneration for these services is provided in the annual
The Petitioner's two additional days of service as Time and Learning Coordinator during the 2003-2006 school years cannot be deemed to have been "set forth" in the collective bargaining agreement, notwithstanding the December 2003 side letter. The remuneration for seven, rather than five additional days in this role is not set forth in the annual contract, the CBA.
In Henry Kozlowski v. Contributory Retirement Appeal Board, 61 Mass. App. Ct. 783, app. Rev. denied 442 Mass. 1112 (2004), Mr. Kozlowski was a high school science teacher from 1964 until his June 1999 retirement. He performed his regular teaching duties as well as serving as audio-visual coordinator for which he was paid an annual stipend. In the collective bargaining agreement in effect through August 1993, the stipend for the audio visual coordinator was listed. Although Mr. Kozlowski performed as the audio visual-coordinator during the years 1993-1996, the collective bargaining agreement for those years did not list a stipend for that position because it was inadvertently omitted. The Teacher's Retirement Board declined to include the stipends as part of Mr. Kozlowski's regular compensation.
The Massachusetts Appeals Court held: "[W]hether the omission was inadvertent or not, the position of audio-visual coordinator was simply not included in the relevant collective bargaining agreements under which Kozlowski worked for the three (3) year period that was the basis for his pension calculation". The Court held that, "to be eligible for inclusion in the pension calculation, the additional service stipend must have been provided for in the collective bargaining agreement".
Since the stipend paid for the Petitioner's services of Time and Learning Coordinator during the 2003-2006 school years was listed in the CBA as five, not seven, additional days, the decision of the TRS that the additional two days are not part of his regular compensation for the purpose of calculating his retirement allowance is hereby affirmed.
So ordered.

Judithann Burke

Public Forum Regulations Policy
Date enacted or revised:
January 2009, Rev. August 2015
IntroductionAs a publicly-supported institution within the University of Louisiana System, McNeese State University values the publicly accessible nature of its campus and facilities and embraces the free and open exchange of ideas in the context of a diverse community of teachers and learners. The University also recognizes its responsibility to maintain focus on its primary educational objectives. As such, the University strongly encourages its students, faculty, and staff to engage in vigorous and collegial debate and discussion within the context of classroom instruction, formal and informal interactions with others, and in social interactions throughout the campus. University students and employees may freely communicate their ideas through the exchange of verbal and written communications and through formal and informal gatherings on the campus at any time and are encouraged to do so in a manner that does not interfere with the University's capacity to administer its core values of teaching and learning, research, public service, and student success.
Persons unaffiliated with the University by virtue of enrollment or employment who wish to conduct activities on the campus which, by their nature, involve engaging in public speech, public demonstrations, political campaigning, and distribution of literature in an effort to appeal to wide audiences and attract interest from internal and external constituents of the campus community, must adhere to the guidelines set forth in this policy. This policy addresses public forum activities conducted by individuals and groups not affiliated with the University that generally fall into the following categories:
- Public Speech
- Public Demonstrations
- Distribution of Literature

Administrative AuthorityThe Assistant Vice President for University Services is the administrative officer charged by the University President with oversight of Public Forum activities. Contact the Assistant Vice President for University Services at the Holbrook University Services Center, Suite 108, located at 375 Beauregard Drive, or by telephone at (337)-475-5706 for information regarding use of Public Forum areas by individuals and groups not affiliated with the University.
Distribution of LiteratureThe University recognizes the right of individuals and groups to distribute literature regarding social, cultural, political, religious, and other ideological issues on the campus. To assure distribution activities do not disrupt normal campus processes and operations, the following regulations regarding time, place, and manner of such distribution will apply to individuals and groups not affiliated with the University:
- Distribution Zones: The following locations shall be deemed Distributions Zones:
- Zone A
- Zone B
- Calendar: Individuals or groups may distribute literature on campus three times per year (once each Fall, Spring, and Summer term) in the assigned distribution zone(s) only.

- Campaign Zones: The following locations shall be deemed Campaign Zones:
- Zone A
- Zone B
- Zone C
- Zone D
- Calendar: Individuals may campaign on campus once per month in the 90-day period leading up to a scheduled election date in the assigned campaign zone only.

The University respectfully asks that such requests be made only in non-election years.
The University recognizes the right of individuals and groups to conduct peaceful demonstrations. To assure demonstrations do not disrupt normal campus processes and operations, the following regulations regarding time, place, and manner will apply to individuals and groups not affiliated with the University:
Public Demonstrations
- Public Demonstration Zones: The following locations shall be deemed Public Demonstration Zones:
- Zone A
- Zone B

General Operating Procedures
Application and ApprovalApplication to utilize Public Forum areas must be received and approved at least 72 hours in advance (three business days, excluding weekends, holidays, and closures) through the Assistant Vice President for University Services to ensure adequate review. Persons or groups wishing to utilize Public Forum areas are strongly urged to make application seven to ten days prior to the desired event. The application must occur on the prescribed form (available through the Office of University Services) and must contain the date and starting time of the proposed activity, the name and appropriate contact information (address, telephone number, email address, etc.) of the reserving party, identification of the specific proposed activity (public speech, public demonstration, political campaign, literature distribution), and signature of the person making application. The University may deny requests for use of Public Forum areas if the event is deemed to require substantial planning and preparation beyond what can reasonably be accomplished within 72 hours in light of normal daily operations of the campus.
CancellationsCancellation of reservations of Public Forum areas must occur in advance of the event start time. Events not properly cancelled shall be deemed to have occurred at the date and time indicated on the original application.
Concurrent EventsDue to the relatively small and intimate nature of the McNeese campus, it is not unusual for multiple events to occur in close proximity to one another, particularly in central areas such as the campus Quadrangle, Student Union complex, and the athletics complex. Persons reserving public forum areas do so with the understanding that previously scheduled events and activities of the University may be ongoing in close proximity to public forum zones even during periods when such areas are reserved for use by individuals and groups not affiliated with the University.
The University's primary educational objectives relate to teaching, research, public service, and student success. Individuals and groups not affiliated with the University who exercise their right to utilize the Public Forum will conduct their activities in a manner that complements the University's educational mission, does not interfere with normal operations, and that conforms to University regulations regarding time, place, and manner. Threats to passersby, impeding or blocking the flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic, committing acts leading to unsafe and/or unhealthy conditions, and posting or affixing signs or materials on walls, windows, grounds, doors, trees, sidewalks, benches, poles, fixtures, or any other equipment or surface, except where specifically authorized, or violations of time, place, and manner restrictions are strictly prohibited and will result in cessation of Public Forum activities by appropriate University authorities.
Continuity of University Operations
Hours of OperationAuthorized use of the Public Forum by individuals and groups not affiliated with the University is permitted only between dawn and dusk during periods of normal University operations (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays and closures).
Inclement WeatherThe University does not provide alternative locations for Public Forum events interrupted by inclement weather, but does provide for events to be rescheduled to a later date according to the same procedure under which the original event date was booked.
Literature DistributionLiterature (fliers, brochures, information sheets, push cards) may be made available to interested persons during Public Forum activities. Forcing literature onto observers or passersby or affixing literature to automobiles, trees, grounds, fixtures, or other stationary objects on the campus shall constitute a violation of University regulations and will result in cessation of the Public Forum activity by appropriate University authorities.
Maintenance of Physical EnvironmentPersons utilizing the Public Forum will conduct their activities in a manner that does not deface, litter, or otherwise damage the physical environment of the campus. Individuals and groups responsible for littering, vandalizing, defacing, or otherwise damaging University property are subject to restitution and criminal prosecution.
Official University EventsEvents sponsored by the University and auxiliary groups officially recognized by the University may occasionally render designated public forum areas temporarily unavailable for use by persons and groups unaffiliated with the University. In circumstances where a public forum area is reserved in advance of the University's need for such space, the University may request the reserving party consider utilizing an alternate venue mutually agreeable to the reserving party and University. In such cases where a mutually agreeable alternate venue is not available, the reserving party's use of the public forum area will be honored.

Sports star Tony Parker is preparing to use Chris Brown's alleged brawl with Frank Ocean last month (Jan13) as 'proof' of the singer's volatile temper in a bid to win his lawsuit against the owners of a New York nightclub.
The basketball player filed a $20 million suit against bosses at Entertainment Enterprises, Ltd., who own Manhattan hotspot W.i.P., after he was allegedly injured during a clash between Brown and fellow hip-hop star Drake's entourages last year (12).
Parker insists the venue's bosses should have been aware of the "bad blood" between Drake and Brown and not let them both into the club at the same time.
Now Parker has filed new documents in his ongoing lawsuit, claiming Brown's alleged fight with Ocean, sparked over a parking space at a Los Angeles recording studio, is proof the R&B star has a hair-trigger temper.
The documents, obtained by editors at TMZ.com, also allege Brown's violent nature surfaced long before, when he brutally beat Rihanna on the eve of the Grammys in 2009. Parker claims both incidents support his allegation that Brown should not have been allowed entry to the club.

Long Realty is pleased to bring you Household Maintenance Tips courtesy of our local Long Advantage business partners. The articles below covers an array of helpful and insightful tips for the Arizona lifestyle. We hope you find this information useful.
Protect your recreational vehicles from extreme desert heat
July 2, 2012
Summer time is here and that means a lot of fun in the sun, but also serious damage to your unprotected valuables. The extreme desert heat and monsoon rains can cause serious and permanent damage to your recreational vehicles such as boats, jet skis or RVs if not protected. Parking them on the street may also be restricted by your HOA and leaves valuables exposed for theft.
Did you know, once vehicle upholstery has suffered the punishing rays of the sun, the damage is done and cannot be repaired? Fading colors, cracking or peeling will wear down your upholstery and make it appear less attractive and be expensive to replace. Storing your vehicles in covered or indoor storage is a great way to protect your recreational vehicles from the harsh elements and prolong their lifespan.
Arizona Self Storage offers a wide variety of sizes to fit your every storage need. Choose from covered or indoor storage for your recreational vehicles and air-cooled or traditional storage for all other storage needs. We do more than just storage; we simplify your life by providing safe and convenient storage so you can rest knowing your items are protected. Come visit Arizona Self Storage to learn how we can help you today. It's easy, convenient and a great value! Find the location nearest you by visiting our website www.AZSS.com.

We need your support for a variety of specific funding needs on the McGeorge campus, each of which will help the Law School in its mission to provide a high quality legal education to students. These current funding priorities embody the heart and soul of McGeorge, enhance its reputation, and build for the future.
Making a significant gift or directing a current gift toward one of the areas listed below will help McGeorge remain a leader among educational institutions locally, nationally and internationally. Current priority funding needs are:
Our Advancement team would be pleased to work with you to direct your gift to an area of your choosing.
As a donor, you have the ability to designate your gift for a particular purpose, such as those listed below. Some donors, however, prefer that their gifts be used to help fund the highest priority needs of the campus at the time. Though McGeorge would like to be able to fully fund every program, scholarship, or campus improvement, doing so is simply unrealistic. Many important programs are unfunded or underfunded annually, and are able to continue only because of generous gifts to the McGeorge Fund. Your annual gift to the McGeorge Fund, no matter the size, can make a significant impact.
Establish your legacy as a leader in the McGeorge community by supporting current scholarships, or by endowing a scholarship or program. Scholarships can be based on a current gift now or a planned gift in the future. Endowments begin at $25,000. To sponsor a student for a full year through a scholarship requires an endowment of $850,000.
Great students inspire faculty and challenge their fellow students. They add to the vibrancy of our classrooms, clinics and campus community. An accessible education is important. Scholarship support opens the door to deserving students and eases their debt burden following graduation. To ensure McGeorge's distinction as a leader in legal education, we seek annual and endowed scholarships to attract the finest students. Too often we lose talented students to well-endowed peer institutions able to offer full support. We want all of those exceptional students who can benefit from a McGeorge education to have the opportunity to do so.
Endowments provide the foundation of McGeorge's reputation for excellence. Through the creation of scholarship and program endowments, donors can connect their name with a specific purpose or area of study. Many named endowments create opportunities for financially disadvantaged, but very talented students. Others focus on a particular area of law and allow McGeorge students and faculty to explore the leading edge of our evolving legal system. Endowments recognize donors for their generosity and leadership, while enhancing the reputation of McGeorge among the top U.S. law schools.
McGeorge has several naming opportunities that provide a special way for you to make your mark on campus or to make a tribute or memorial gift in honor of someone special. There are a number of ways to take advantage of this opportunity to memorialize your generous donation. Current naming opportunities are listed below. You are encouraged to contact our Advancement team to discuss your ideas for additional naming opportunities as well.
Though ahead of its time in 1973, the McGeorge Courtroom was in need renovations to bring it into the 21st Century. Now, it can once again be hailed as "The Courtroom of the Future." This state-of-the-art space includes an updated design, as well as extensive technology, media and communications upgrades. It will provide an ideal space for training outstanding legal advocates for years to come.
Great law schools deserve equally great legal resources. For McGeorge, the new Legal Studies Center, which houses the Gordon D. Schaber Law Library, was greatly needed to keep pace with our prominent programs, distinguished faculty, outstanding students, and internationally-recognized achievements.
The two-story, $10 million Legal Studies Center is the centerpiece of McGeorge's strategic plan and houses the library and study areas, as well as space for symposia, events, and legal training. This new library not only revitalizes legal research and study for our students, but also transforms the way our campus is perceived and experienced regionally, nationally and globally.
The Centers of Distinction at McGeorge need your support. Each of our three Centers has overall campaign needs and requires your investment to grow and sustain unique program offerings. Your gift will make a significant difference.
McGeorge's Center for Advocacy & Dispute Resolution prepares students for the courtroom and teaches them to tackle complex disputes through a variety of alternative dispute resolution methods. In 2010, McGeorge's Advocacy Program was ranked No. 5 in the U.S. News and World Report among the leading Trial Advocacy programs in the nation. Our advocacy program offers a rich array of courses where students learn to apply theory to realistic legal programs in both the trial and appellate setting. The Center and its faculty also routinely provide training programs for countries around the world, such as Chile, Italy, Cambodia, Rwanda, Uganda, and Kosovo. Specific sponsorship opportunities include:
Moot Court/Mock Trial Team Sponsorship — Through various programs, McGeorge sponsors student competitors to travel across the nation and even internationally to represent the law school in moot court and mock trial competitions. The Mock Trial Competition Team program trains students to become excellent trial lawyers through honing the art of persuasive advocacy in the courtroom. The Moot Court program tests a student's written and oral advocacy skills in competitions representing a case on appeal before an intermediate court or a court of last resort. Consider the sponsorship of a specific team — each gift means another student has the opportunity to build his/her skills while competing against students at other top law schools!
National Ethics Trial Competition 2013 — McGeorge's National Ethics Trial Competition (NETC) promotes ethical and civility awareness through the mock trial competition format. It uniquely features both an ethical component in the issues to be tried and scoring based on the participants' observation of ethical and civility principles, and allows student trial lawyers to display their knowledge and skills of professional responsibility in trial work. Join our prestigious list of NETC sponsors and partner with McGeorge as a leader in promoting ethical and civility principles in the legal profession. Current 2013 NETC sponsors include lead sponsor Robert A. Buccola, '83, Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora, LLP, and co-sponsors Law Office of Noël Ferris, '79, R. Parker White, '80, Poswall, White & Cutler, American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA), and Porter | Scott Attorneys.
Special Programs — Gifts can be designated to support Advocacy Center symposia, workshops, and students.
The McGeorge Global Center for Business & Development pursues educational, scholarly and practical initiatives addressing the interface between the global economy and the legal profession. The efforts of the Center are a principal reason why the international law program at McGeorge is recognized as a top international law program in the United States. Specific giving opportunities include:
Elizabeth Rindskopf Parker Global Center Endowment — This endowment was created by the McGeorge International Board to honor the 8th dean of the law school and to support stipends and fellowships for our law students working abroad, as they are wonderful ambassadors for us, and the experiences are invaluable to them.
Special Programs — Gifts can be designated to support Global Center symposia, workshops, and students.
The McGeorge Capital Center for Law & Policy takes advantage of the Law School's location in California's capital city. The Center's initiatives and programs are designed to create lawyers who are leaders in their communities, and who understand the influence of public policy. Specific giving opportunities include:
Special Programs — Gifts can be designated to support Capital Center symposia, workshops, and students.
Your investment in McGeorge's Legal Clinics both enhances student learning and helps local community members navigate difficult legal challenges. These innovative programs provide students a learning environment that promotes real-world education and instills the value of service. Your gift to one of our eight Clinics will ensure McGeorge students are able to continue to learn essential lawyering skills under the tutelage of experienced mediators and attorneys. In particular, we are seeking your support for the following clinical programs:
The McGeorge Immigration Law Clinic provides students practical experience in in client interviewing, identifying legal issues and providing legal advice and advocacy. Students represent non-citizens who otherwise would be unable to obtain legal representation before the Department of Homeland Security and the Executive Office for Immigration Review in applications for various immigration benefits including adjustment of status and relief from removal. Your contribution will ensure McGeorge remains a leader in the community in providing these much-needed services to indigent clients.
The McGeorge Elder & Health Law Clinic affords students the opportunity to represent elders in court and on transactional matters concerning planning for death, incapacity and a variety of other issues, including health issues. It challenges student attorneys to question their own values about the quality of life, fairness and the wisdom and practicality of alternative dispute resolution methods to creatively resolve legal matters. Your contribution to the Elder and Health Law Clinic will ensure that McGeorge is able to continue to train students in this complex and fast-growing legal specialization.

This was going to be very easy, because I make fruit crisps all the time! I think of them as "lazy baker's pie". Blueberries aren't really high on our family's list of favorites (except in pancakes), so my boys were skeptical of this combination. I was ready to give this a try...
Locally grown, fresh peaches were on sale the week that this recipe was chosen (Perfect timing, Aggie).
Skinning peaches is easy as... well, pie... I blanched them for one minute in boiling water...
... then, removed them with one of my versatile and favorite gadgets-- my "spider" and dunked them immediately into an ice bath. The skin slip right off. (Tip, cut a small "x" at the bottom of each peach for easy skin removal.)
The only change I made in Ina's recipe was to substitute tapioca for flour. Personally, I find that flour tends to "muddy" my fruit. Either way works, though. I let the fruit "sit" while I made the crumbles with my Kitchen Aid Mixer (so much easier than doing it by hand).
I have to say that peaches and blueberries make a beautiful combination of contrasting colors. I had a feeling that this was going to be delicious.
I read some past comments on this recipe, and I decided to double the crumbles. I like having a bit of crumble in each bite of fruit, myself. I recall Ina saying that you want the crumble mixture to resemble "beach sand". I grabbed a little and squeezed, and it bound together. That should do it!
Ina's recipe calls for making this recipe with individual ramekins. I decided instead, to use my Emily Henry Oval Baking Dish-- a wedding gift that is near and dear to my heart. I photographed this before completely cover all of the fruit, so that you could see what was underneath.
I had leftover crumbles, but I've saved that for a future fruit dish.
My kitchen smelled wonderful, with a nice hint of cinnamon. I thought that the fruit firmed up just right.
We love our fruit dishes to be served slightly warm. My husband loves it when his vanilla bean ice cream melts into his dessert.
Overall, this is a very simple dessert to make. I still prefer fruit crisps because I love the crunch of the oatmeal that is added to the topping. In fact, with my leftover crumbles, I'll do exactly that!
