11 students of Olabisi Onabanjo University yesterday met their untimely death as they were coming to Lagos.
A truck driver was said to have been the cause of the ghastly accident on the Sagamu-Benin express way to Lagos. The truck which was passing a one-way lane, had a head-on-collision with the vehicle carrying the students, killing all of them including the bus driver, except one survivor. The truck has now been towed away but the truck driver has been on the run. See photos from the accident scene below if you have the mind….

On December 8, Deputy Secretary of State William J. Burns said that the United States is ready for negotiations if Iran is "serious about meeting its international obligations" on its nuclear program. He spoke at the Manama Dialogue, a regional security summit convened by the International Institute for Strategic Studies. Government officials, businesspeople, economists and strategic thinkers from across the world attended the dialogue. The following is an excerpt from Burns' statement.
First is security, and in particular meeting the urgent challenges posed by Iran's reckless behavior across a wide front, and the related imperative of accelerating a transition to the new leadership which the Syrian people so deeply deserve. We share with the rest of the international community a profound concern about Iran's continuing refusal to meet its nuclear obligations, and a profound commitment to intensifying economic and political pressure until it does – pressure which has already resulted in a fifty percent drop in the value of Iran's currency and a similar drop in oil exports. As Secretary Clinton made clear again last week, the United States is ready for a serious negotiation, along with our P5+1 partners, if Iran is serious about meeting its international obligations. But time for negotiation is growing short, given the worrisome pace of Iran's nuclear program and mounting regional and international concerns. Meanwhile, beyond the nuclear issue, we see a continuing pattern of Iranian and Iranian-proxy threats around the world, from Bangkok to Bulgaria, and especially in this region.

A Message from Dean Neal Van Alfen: New Director for the Center for the Study of Regional Change
We are pleased to welcome Jonathan London as the new director of the Center for the Study of Regional Change. Jonathan will lead the center in its mission to address the complex regional dynamics brought about by demographic and economic shifts in California's Central Valley and Sierra Nevada regions.
The Center for the Study of Regional Change was originally conceived and championed by the late Ted Bradshaw, professor of human and community development, who envisioned collaborative partnerships between the university and community stakeholders to foster interdisciplinary research on sustainable regional change. Jonathan London assisted Bradshaw in developing the original center proposal. He was responsible for building relationships with key community supporters such as David Hosley, president and general manager of KVIE Public Television, who has been an ardent supporter of regional planning.
Jonathan London's academic training and his professional leadership experiences make him an ideal choice to direct the new center. Jonathan attended graduate school at UC Berkeley, earning a master's degree in City and Regional Planning and a Ph.D. in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management. From 1999–2005, he ran a nonprofit organization called "Youth In Focus" that trained young people doing action research on their Central Valley communities. Since 2006, Jonathan has taught in the Department of Human and Community Development and conducted research with the California Communities Program and the Environmental Justice Project of the John Muir Institute of the Environment.
Jonathan has long been interested in community participation as a way to make better public decisions about natural resources and the environment. In his role as the first director of the Center for the Study of Regional Change, Jonathan will work to foster interdisciplinary collaborations as well as campus-community partnerships. Establishing connections between our college and California's inland residents is an important part of fulfilling our mandate as a land-grant university. Please welcome Jonathan London in his Hart Hall office (530-752-2733; [email protected]).
As always, I value your feedback. If you have questions or comments, please e-mail me.

Here's Your Full List of Grammy Nominees
Adele! Kanye! Skrillex!
The nominations were announced late last night, and in case you didn't hear, Adele is a very popular singer this year. She picked up six nominations, in all the major categories; technically, that's one fewer than Kanye, but 'Ye was snubbed for Best Album. (This seems a good time to remind you that the eligibility period ranges from September 1, 2010, to September 30, 2011.) Other notable nominees: "New Artist" Bon Iver seems poised to be this year's Arcade Fire, except this time it kind of seems like Justin Vernon doesn't know who the Grammys are, rather than the other way around. (His tweet: "What's the difference between Best Record and Best Song??") Beyoncé and her bump of wonder were pretty much ignored (one nomination, for "Party"); same goes for the bump-less Taylor Swift, whose excellent "Mean" was relegated to the country categories. Also, Skrillex is up for Best New Artist. The Grammys, everyone!

The Louisiana Legislature is expected to be called into a special session next month to shore up a $313 million hole in the state budget that ends June 30.
The panel that sets the state's revenue forecast on Friday recognized that tax collections for the budget year have failed to meet expectations — particularly in personal income and corporate taxes, leaving the state budget unbalanced.
Gov. John Bel Edwards had said before the meeting that anything beyond a $300 million shortfall would exceed the amount he can cut from the budget on his own and trigger the need for a special session. Lawmakers are also expected to be asked to tap into the state's reserves to help cover the gap.
"There's no question in our minds that we have to have a special session," Edwards' chief budget architect Jay Dardenne said after the Revenue Estimating Conference downgraded the state budget outlook.
House Speaker Taylor Barras, R-New Iberia, has expressed skepticism over the need for a special session. On Friday, he still wouldn't outright state his support for one.
"It's not inevitable that we have a special session," he said. "We could accomplish the cuts without one."
Gov. John Bel Edwards: 'My best guess is that we are' heading for special legislative session next month
Louisiana lawmakers appear to be heading toward another special session next month to try to…
"If the governor calls a special session, we will be here for it," Barras added.
Senate President John Alario, R-Westwego, said he agreed with Edwards that a special session is needed.
And Edwards appears to have particular leverage to force legislators' hands.
Leaders want to take $119 million from the rainy day fund to help fill the budget hole. That could be accomplished through a mail ballot of lawmakers, but it would be up to the governor to say whether that should happen.
Instead, it's likely that the governor will include tapping the reserve fund in his call for a special session.
The Joint Legislative Budget Committee is expected to meet on Jan. 27.
Edwards said he has been eyeing a period between Valentine's Day on Feb. 14 and Mardi Gras on Feb. 28 for the special session. By law, the governor would set the dates and the perimeters for which actions can be taken.
It would be the third special session since Edwards took office a year ago. Last year, state lawmakers met in two special sessions to plug a $2 billion gap in the budget that began July 1.
The latest shortfall comes on top of a separate $313 million cut just last month that was needed to close the budget year that ended June 30, after collections didn't meet expectations.
Sluggish personal income and corporate tax collections have left the state still short on the money allocated to state services this year.
"We are still losing jobs on a monthly basis," said Greg Albrecht, one of the economists who advises the state Revenue Estimating Conference. "We've lost jobs in the highest-paying sectors, and what we've gained is in the lowest-paying."
Beyond the rainy day fund, the bulk of the budget adjustments in the special session will likely come from cuts to state agencies.
Edwards said he wants to spare higher education and health care as much as possible, but those two areas are left vulnerable in the budget because of protections to other services.
"I have said all along that I am not willing to place the burden of this budget crisis only on the backs of our hardworking families, students or our most vulnerable citizens," he said in a statement Friday. "In order to avoid that, the entirety of the state's budget must be opened up in order to make these cuts, otherwise they will be concentrated in a few areas and the impact would be too painful for our people to bear. The only way that can happen is with a special session."
Edwards told The Advocate that some statewide officials have volunteered to take larger hits to their budgets to spare others. He didn't specify which offices those were.
Dardenne said he is still in the process of surveying agency heads about cuts that they can absorb.
During its regular session that begins in April, the state Legislature is expected to focus on an overhaul of the state budget and taxes to address structural issues in spending and revenue collection. A penny sales tax hike adopted earlier this year was meant as a temporary fix to bridge the gap through June 2018.
Edwards said that the state's ongoing budget challenges "underscore the need for comprehensive tax reform in the upcoming legislative session."

"All the News That's Fit to Print" is the motto of the The New York Times . Despite a proliferation of devices that allow you to take content with you wherever you go, despite e-mail, despite services like LinkedIn, Podio and Twitter there is still a driving demand to generate hard copies of documents.
Printing is so common and fundamental that it is often overlooked as an IT service when migrating to virtualised desktops. How do your users connect to the printers they have? In fact, what printers do they use? What are the printer drivers and settings that are common or unique?
Early adopters of the Windows server based computing solution Citrix WinFrame came to understand that desktop centralisation may well improve the configuration and management of desktops and applications but user services, especially printing, were a headache. Printing integration with thin clients could be a pain. Such was the complexity that a sub-industry evolved to offer solutions assisting with managing and maintaining print services in a distributed environment. While various iterations of Citrix's solution improved printing services, it is always something to knit the brows of architects – "the Truth shall make you fret" as it were.
Hosted Desktops are often hailed as "a better desktop solution than Presentation Virtualisation", they being "designed to deliver a desktop operating system". Yet, Hosted Desktops are a service that move functions away from the user's device – and so often away from their printer. The users' printers are still local (to them), their need to select their nearest printers still very much necessary, as is their expectation to print to whatever printer it is they have at hand.
VDI Printing. Is it the Nemesis it was for Terminal Services? If not, would client hypervisors help, or is it that traditional desktops delivery is the best method for dealing with printing requirements?
In this, the first of two articles on VDI printing, we consider what are the issues with distributed printing and, what printing functions should you consider for your desktop architecture.
Issues with Distributed Printing 101
Any distributed desktop service has four core issues to deal with in order to create an efficient printing environment:
1) Bandwidth Availability – there is a great play on optimisation of bandwidth to enhance the user experience for Adobe Flash say, or real-time video. Yet, do not underestimate the need for printing bandwidth. A lack of optimisation for printing could manifest itself in two ways: both incredibly character building. The print task can take an age to complete, and it can even prevent other use of the remote connection. Neither lead to a good user experiences. Of course, this impacts remote users with low bandwidth connections most severely: will the users at that branch office on that low bandwidth remote link be impacted when Arthur decides to print out his 50-page presentation deck?
2) Printer Driver Management – a printer driver (or a print processor) is the software that converts the data to be printed to the form specific to the printer. The purpose of printer drivers is to allow applications to do printing without being aware of the technical details of each printer model. The issue here is, there are many printers, ergo many printer drivers. Accessing functions of the printer (for instance, duplex, colour, stapling, watermarks, print ordering, binding) can be specific to the printer. Indeed, how do you deal with multi-function devices – printing and scanning? There is often a requirement to use a specific printer driver. How does it get installed? If you've a standard build on your hosted desktop, are all the printer drivers in it? Can you steam them like applications? Do all the drivers work together nicely? If a user needs a non-standard printer, how do they add that driver in?
3) Printer Selection. Where am I and where is the nearest printer? This is a pain for users who move around a great deal. Some organisations opt to let their users choose their printers: this can be very time consuming. Far easier to automatically connect the nearest printer(s) when the user connects. Yet, does the printer selection requirement fall foul of the Printer Driver Management issue?
4) Local or Network Printing This is more than simply "printer selection" which deals with "which printer is closest?". The closest printer maybe the one physically sat next to you, on your desk. You can see it. Look! Its there! But, how is it connected to your device? Directly via USB (or even, and it still exists, a parallel cable)? Via a network? Does the device you're using allow access to that printer? Some thin clients for instance, don't support direct printer re-direction: if you want to replace PCs with locally attached printers, can your users still access their printers? What happens if their device is a tablet? What happens if they want to use their home printer?
Nothing is Impossible
Alright, some things are impossible: "describing what yellow smells like" for instance and, sadly, "my football team's ability to win": however, I digress. In that "up and at 'em" ethos of a well-known sporting brand, these printing issues are not impossible to solve with proper consideration. When designing your desktop architecture's print environment you should consider:
- Bandwidth Prioritisation: can you contain or prioritise the remote bandwidth taken up by the printing protocol. Can you minimise the impact of requesting a print function for remote users?
- Printer Driver Management: can you automate or manage the installation of printer drivers for users' printers without impacting on the stability and usability of the environment they are working in?
- Universal Printer Driver: indeed, do you need so many printer drivers? Can a single "universal printer driver" be used to replace the variety of drivers you have in place at the reducing complexity and management and enabling users to use their own local printer – whatever it may be?
- Proximity Printing: you can rely on the option to "get the user to go an look at the label attached to the printer and use that one" – but this itself is a time consuming task. And time is money. Is it possible to connect the user's most local printers automatically?
- Printer Naming: When you create printers, how are they named? Some applications (which can be vitally important applications like "invoicing", "ordering" and "dispatch") have very specific printer name requirements. If that is necessary, how do you accommodate that?
What Next?
There is still a need to fit to the motto – print news. Taking a step back and considering your print requirements is an important step in delivering a successful desktop virtualisation project.
In Part II we'll consider the core printing options for the likes of Citrix XenDesktop, Quest vWorkspace and VMware View and how they match to our printing considerations. Do you still need third party products to make your print solution effective? We'll take an overview of solutions from ThinPrint, triCerat and UniPrint. Hopefully you'll find it all interesting news and wish to print it.

Here are 6 good reasons why Barry Spencer is the right speaker for you:
Professionalism – Barry knows that your reputation is on the line when he takes the stage. As such, he will carefully decide whether or not he is right for your audience before he agrees to a contract. Additionally, you can expect no surprises and a healthy pat on the back from your boss when Barry steps off of the podium. In fact, it's guaranteed.
Tailored Presentation – You've likely seen many presentations where the speaker took out his or her "canned" material and just inserted your company or association's name in once of twice during the hour. It doesn't take too long until the listeners are looking at each other as if to say, "Does this guy have any idea what we do?" What you get from Barry will be far from "canned." Instead, he will provide a unique presentation tailored to the needs and wants of your group. His pre-program research will begin with your very first conversation and will continue to and through the event.
Expertise – There is a difference between a speaker and an expert who speaks. You and your audience know the difference. Barry is an expert in the field of leadership, Wealth Building without Regrets, and Financial Freedom. Spend one hour with him and you will learn the difference between Barry and other speakers.
Dynamic – This is the icing on the cake. While many celebrities and experts have curb appeal and content, many do not have the vehicle to deliver it with. Barry is known for his ability to grab the audience's attention from the very beginning both to inspire and to motivate
The Extra Mile – Barry's work for you will not end when the microphone turns off. As needed, he would be happy to join your group in any social functions before or after the event.
Appeal – Hiring a published author for your event makes your event program shine and builds a wave of pre-program enthusiasm.
Barry will motivate and inspire your audience to learn more, grow more, and become more.
One (1) refundable airfare will be provided by the hiring company / association. Fuel reimbursement only for local events.
Hotel accommodations should be made at or near the event site for the evening before the event (2 nights if the meeting is late afternoon / evening or international). We would be happy to make arrangements, if needed.
Transportation to / from the airport and the event site should be provided or reimbursed.
Reimbursement should be allowed for two moderately priced meals per day.
Bottom line: Barry will go out of his way to make sure that there are no issues. You will get no surprises or exorbitant bills. He knows that your reputation is on the line and he will be looking to make it even better (see reason #1 above).
Finally…a speaker that guarantees that YOU look good for bringing him in.
AV Requirements
1) Lavaliere microphone.
2) Hand-held microphone.
3) Power Point will be used. If used, he will need a projector and screen to fit the audience.
Preferred large group set up is a large raised platform (3′-6′) with one small table and no podium. Distance from the first row of seats to the riser should be no farther than 6′.
Room set-up can be adjusted to accommodate smaller group sizes.
Barry will want to be able to look at the room set-up with you the night before the event if possible.
All A/V issues will be discussed NLT two (2) weeks before the event.

Stefano lasted fairly well, given that 1. he was fairly mediocre and 2. was a "judges' choice" inclusion in the top 13 in the first place. Not sorry to see him go…

First it was "Love Song in Yoruba," then "Sexy Nana"; now, Janelia is back with her 3rd Afro-Pop single titled "Bakassi," as produced by Fliptyce. The Nigerian-American singer and performing artiste had proven herself worthy on the United States independent music scene before she made a goal to conquer the music industry in Nigeria [her home] and impact the Afro-Pop community at large; it appears Janelia is one step closer to her goal with her new single, "Bakassi," as she properly introduces herself to this music industry with it's audio and video release.
Janelia sings:
"I'm not just a pretty face, there's more to life than being a 'Sexy Nana', I get content."
Watch and share your thoughts on the Fliptyce-produced/Femi Sanya directed visuals.

Data science has become extremely important internationally, with the majority of top-tier international research and teaching institutions investing significantly in dedicated centers and programs. In this context, the ETH Domain launches the Initiative for Data Science in Switzerland to accelerate data science through both an expansion of education and research, and the provision of infrastructure for data science users across disciplines. The Initiative creates both Master courses in data science at EPFL and ETH Zurich, and the Swiss Data Science Center (SDSC), a joint venture between EPFL and ETH Zurich. The mission of the SDSC is to accelerate the adoption of data science and machine learning techniques broadly within academic disciplines of the ETH Domain, the Swiss academic community at large, and the industrial sector.
We engage in academic and industrial collaborations requiring large-scale distributed data processing (Big & Fast Data) and/or advanced analytics (machine learning & statistics) combined with an in-depth knowledge in select domains
We provide secure access to our cloud-hosted analytics platform - the Insights Factory, a highly scalable open software platform offering a one-stop-shop for hosting and exploring curated, calibrated and possibly anonymized data at scale, at-rest or in-motion.

I've written a few times about how I have really tried to focus on better fitness this year. I worried about our long camping trips and how that would affect me. I'm happy to report that things are going well. Here's an update on my fitness goals.
Recap of My Goals And My Plan
I wanted to lose some weight and lose some body fat. I'd spent most of 2016 gaining 0.5 to 1 pound per month, and there was no excuse for it. I was just lazy and full of poor decisions.
I decided to commit 2017 to make better decisions.
My goals were two fold:
- I wanted to lose 13.5 pounds.
- I wanted reduce my body fat from 21% to 15%.
My plan was pretty simple:
- Work out more.
- Cut back on calories from alcohol.
- Eliminate all snacking at work.
Tracking Progress
Things have gone very well. Just as I had a steady rise last year, things have moved in the right direction in a pretty steady fashion.
Here's a quick summary on how things were at the end of each month:
- January – Lost 4.1 pounds total. Body fat: 19.6%
- February – Lost 5.8 pounds total. Body fat: 19.0%
- March – Lost 7.8 pounds total. Body fat: 17.4%
- April – Lost 8.2 pounds total. Body fat: 17.4%
- May – Lost 9.6 pounds total. Body fat: 17.3%
- June – Lost 12.1 pounds total. Body fat: 16.9%
- July (so far) – Lost 12.3 pounds total. Body fat: 16.3%
What this represents:
- I've lost 91% of the total weight I want to lose.
- I have lost 81% of the total body fat I want to lose.
- Finally, I've lost 28% of my total body fat.
Methodology: In order to smooth out the normal fluctuations, I take measurements every day, and then use a running 7-day average on both weight and body fat.
Slowing Down
Things have obviously started to slow down. I've worked around this weight goal before, and I've always found that the last couple of pounds are the hardest. In fact, the one time I hit it a few years ago I only got the last couple of pounds because I got food poisoning. I'm hoping that I don't have to rely on that this time.
I really want to get this last little bit. Then, the real work starts.
Right now, it's easy to keep staying motivated on my behaviors, but if I hit the goal, I have to make sure to stay motivated so that things don't go in the wrong direction. Just like they have in the past!
This is similar to personal finance goals. Many people work so hard for a goal (like getting out of debt) that once they hit it, they don't have any idea what to do next.
The key is to look ahead. I'm already looking ahead to how I can stay motivated over the next few months. It's not going to be easy.
Three Major Challenges Ahead
We have three things that I really have to watch out for:
- Our second week long camping trip – We do two trips per summer. I got out of the last one relatively unscathed but will have to make sure I don't fall apart on the next one.
- Our anniversary trip – We are going to Cancun for a few days to celebrate our ten year anniversary. It's at an all inclusive resort. I've never been to one but I've heard that they're like cruise ships, and it's easy to indulge.
- Halloween – This is my Kryptonite. Seriously. After Halloween people bring loads of candy into the office. And they bring the good stuff. Hershey Bars. Reeses Cups. You name it. I have never been able to resist the jar upon jar of chocolate goodness. If I'm going to lose my work goal, this will be how it happens. However, since by that point I'll have 10 full months under my belt, I am confident I can make it.
So far, I'm happy with how things are going. Now I just need to get those last steps and then make sure it doesn't turn and go the wrong direction.

The Philippines' junior men's basketball team pulled off the biggest upset so far in after humbling three-time reigning champion China in the second round of the ongoing 2015 FIBA Asia U-16 Championship being held in Jakarta, Indonesia.
More popularly known as Batang Gilas, the Filipinos made history by snapping China's 31-game winning run spread over four editions of the tournament Tuesday.
Gian Mamuyac scored 22 points for the Philippines, which listed the final 10 points of the game to steal the win from their much bigger and taller opponents. He also listed three rebounds, five assists, three steals, and two blocks for an overall impressive showing in his 30:15 minutes on the hardcourt.
The young Filipinos' victory was somehow a payback of some sorts for the basketball-crazy country, whose older Gilas Pilipinas team bowed to China in the FIBA Asia Men's Championship last October.
Batang Gilas bounced back from their heartbreak of a loss against South Korea last Monday.
Trailing at 67-72, Batang Pilipinas stuffed 11 unanswered points – a three-pointer each from Kris Pagsanjan, Jason Credo and Samjosef Belangel combined with Jonas Tibayan from the free-throw line accounting for them – for their fifth win in six games.
China, who topped Group F despite the defeat, will go up against Kuwait with the winner moving on to a semifinal clash against the winner of the Korean-Lebanon tiff in the quarterfinal round.
As the second seed in Group F, the Philippines, meanwhile, advances to the knockout phase of the tournament on Thursday in the quarterfinals against Group E's third-seed Japan which currently has a 3-2, win-loss card.
The 2015 FIBA Asia U16 Championship takes a break on Wednesday followed by three days of battles in the playoffs which will decide the three Asian representatives to the 2017 FIBA U17 World Championship.
The Philippines finished in second spot in the last staging of the tournament in 2013.

Businesses are looking for ways to save time and money while still joining the mobile technology revolution. Showcase is the perfect app to help a company achieve those objectives.
Ann Arbor, MI (PRWEB) February 19, 2013
Logic Solutions announces the launch of the SaaS version of Showcase Mobile Sales System. Showcase consists of a mobile app for iPad and a Content Management System (CMS) that provides a mobile solution for companies to display and sell products.
The Showcase SaaS version is available for a monthly subscription of $35/user. The subscription comes with web access to the CMS, where an administrator manages product and catalog information, sales literature files, imagery (including company branding of the app), customer data, placed orders information, and user permissions.
The app consists of modules:

All modules except Sync function while offline, allowing a user to complete a sale without Wi-Fi or other wireless Internet access. The app saves orders locally, until the user has connectivity to sync them with the CMS.
Early adopters include Real Flame, makers of ventless gel fireplaces and accessories; Screamer, Inc., manufacturers of high performance hats; and Argent Tape and Label, manufacturers of custom-printed media and industrial tape products.

Fr. Gerard Redmond, C.Ss.R (1907-1983), was a Catholic priest of the Redemptorist religious order who played a key role in the initial development of a Catholic school system in Hinton, Alberta. He was pastor of Our Lady of the Foothills Parish in Hinton from 1964 – 1970 and from 1980 -1983. Born in Quebec, he grew up in Riviere Qui Barre, Alberta before studying for the priesthood. Fr. Gerard loved to sing and played several musical instruments. He played baseball and hockey as a young man, and later golf. In a 1981 interview, Fr. Redmond described himself as a renaissance man, because he was interested in everything and still learning.
We believe that our academic and personal success is built on a foundation of faith, integrity, life-long learning, mutual respect, and stewardship. We strive to uphold the teachings of our Savior, Jesus, in every aspect of our grade 5 through grade 12 school community.
The king will say to those at his right hand 'Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.' Matthew 25. 34-36, 40

Judge says 'no' to call for dismissal of Duplin schools lawsuit
By Steve Herring
Published in News on August 19, 2008 1:39 PM
KENANSVILLE -- Super-ior Court Judge Thomas Haigwood Monday afternoon denied a motion to dismiss the capital outlay aspect of the Duplin County Board of Education's lawsuit against the county.
The motion was the final one of four that had been filed by the county to dismiss the suit.
While the motions were being argued, potential jurors lined the stairway and hallway leading to the courtroom. The original jury pool of 100 has been increased by 200 more.
Jury selection got under way Monday in the trial that could last as long as two weeks or more.
The three other motions to dismiss were denied during a Friday hearing during which Haigwood also denied a motion by school board attorneys to either have outside jurors hear the case or move the trial to another county.
As they did on Friday, Monday's arguments about the schools' capital outlay centered on the school board's facilities plan.
County attorneys contend the school board failed to provide information on a timely basis about the plan. They also claim the county was unfamiliar with the plan and as such was unsure about the necessary level of funding.
On the other hand, school board attorneys said commissioners knew of the plan, first approving then rejecting it. Commissioners countered that the plan had been changed during mediation and that the school board's budget included just a one-line mention of an approximately $63 million plan.
"Has everybody said what they wanted to say," Haigwood said prior to making his ruling on Monday.
Local funding has been a sore point between the two boards for the past several years.
Mediation failed to resolve the conflict leading to the lawsuit filed by the school board Aug. 6 that seeks an unspecified amount of money and asks that the cost of the legal action be borne by commissioners.
State law requires the case be fast-tracked, taking priority over all other business of the court.
A verdict against commissioners could result in the county being ordered to raise property taxes to provide more local funding.
The 2008-09 county budget allocated $6.9 million for schools -- the school board had asked for $13.2 million.
In its resolution initiating mediation, the school board called the funding inadequate to operate a free public school system.
The system needs $9.5 million in local current expense funds just to operate, school board attorneys say. They are asking for $12.579 million in local current expense funding.
During the mediation, commissioners appropriated an additional $800,000 for the school board's current expense budget and $1,010,203 to the capital outlay budget (no local funds).
To date, the county has provided about $7.7 million in local current expense funding -- some $5 million less than what is being sought. An 18-cent tax increase would be needed to fund the entire amount.

As we say in the local dialect:
Hesket Newmarket Brewery is hidden away in the beautiful village of Hesket Newmarket in the north of the Lake District National Park. The brewery - one of the first microbreweries in Cumbria - was inaugurated in April 1988. It produces one of the widest ranges of distinctive and full flavoured real ales in the county, most of them named after well loved fells in the northern part of the Lake District National Park.
Our beers are much appreciated by locals and visitors alike; appreciated to such an extent that the brewery became co-operatively owned in 1999 in order to prevent its closure or sale to a large enterprise.

Jon Stewart Will Quickly Come Out of Retirement to Host Some WWE Pro Wrestling at SummerSlam
Why not?
Jon Stewart's first big-time post–Daily Show gig will be as the celebrity guest host of WWE's SummerSlam, USA Today reports. The four-hour pro-wrestling event takes place Sunday at Brooklyn's Barclays Center, where a slew of renowned wrestlers (think Brock Lesnar, the Undertaker, and John Cena, among others) will converge to kind-of-but-not-really beat the crap out of each other. The WWE calls Stewart "a longtime member of the WWE Universe," which makes sense, as the comedian's generated a fairly fresh rivalry with the WWE's World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. The two crashed each other's respective shows earlier this year and proved they both had their obvious strengths and weaknesses. Rollins is reportedly set to be at SummerSlam, so hopefully Stewart wields his rhetorical domination like the verbal viper he is and makes it out alive — March was a close call. (Jon, we are sending you our thoughts and prayers, and definitely abstaining from telling you to break a leg.) Maybe someone should give Colbert a call too.
