TRAVERSE CITY — A jury ruled a local attorney committed fraud and malpractice in a case of a business deal gone bad.
A former client sued Clarence Gomery, of Gomery and Associates, in 13th Circuit Court. A jury listened to six days of acrimonious details of a failed business partnership between Gomery and Fred Topous Jr.
"I understand the jury's decision that I'm an attorney and I believe they held me up to a higher standard and I accept that," Gomery said. "I believe in this case, they got the facts wrong."
Gomery approached Topous in 2009 to purchase the former Mitchell Creek Golf Course property off 3 Mile Road. Topous paid $510,000 and Gomery formed the limited liability company T&G Real Estate Development.
Topous' attorney, Christopher Cooke, said an operating agreement was manipulated to give Gomery 50 percent ownership and 50 percent interest in the property though Gomery made no monetary investment.
Cooke argued Topous, a registered sex offender who won $57 million from the state lottery in 2008, was "clearly taken advantage of." Gomery was Topous' attorney when they entered the business transaction, Cooke said, a fact Gomery disputed. The jury determined Gomery violated rules of professional conduct by entering into a business partnership with a client.
"The strongest part of my case was really the horrible abuse of the defendant's ethical responsibility to his client and I think that rang true with the jury," Cooke said.
Gomery is a former Leelanau County prosecutor and Grand Traverse County assistant prosecutor. Cooke said he will file a grievance against him with the state Attorney Grievance Commission.
Gomery's attorney, Laura Garneau, in court said Topous knew what he was paying for and willingly signed up to be the "money man" in a property deal. Cooke said it took two years for Gomery to produce an operating agreement after numerous requests, but Gomery said witness testimony showed Topous was presented the agreement at signing.

A precociously talented winger whose eye-catching displays for Arsenal FC have earned him a place in England's UEFA EURO 2012 squad, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been tipped for a glittering career. At 18 he will be one of the youngest players on show in Poland and Ukraine and a potential ace up England's sleeve.
• The son of former England winger Mark Chamberlain, he was born in Portsmouth but joined the academy of nearby Southampton FC at seven and worked his way up the youth ladder, making his senior debut on 2 March 2010, aged 16 years 199 days.
• Scored his first senior goal for the Saints five days before his 17th birthday and went on to play a leading role in the club's 2010/11 League One (third tier) promotion-winning campaign, scoring nine goals in 34 appearances and earning a place in the PFA League One Team of the Year.
• Followed in the footsteps of another Southampton prodigy, Theo Walcott, by moving to Arsenal, where he made an immediate impact, scoring his first goal in a League Cup game against Shrewsbury Town FC and finding the net on his UEFA Champions League debut – after just eight minutes – against Olympiacos FC.
• Active for England at Under-18 and U19 level, he starred for the U21 side in their bid to qualify for the 2013 European finals, notably with a hat-trick in a 3-0 win in Iceland.
• Scored his first two Premier League goals for Arsenal in a 7-1 triumph against Blackburn Rovers FC on 4 February 2012 and starred in a 3-0 defeat of AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League a month later.

A RESOUNDING 'no' to plans for a massive development in an Isle of Wight village was delivered by residents last night (Tuesday).
Arreton parish councillors unanimously objected to the plan for 89 Hazely Combe homes, which would increase the size of the village by half, if approved by the Isle of Wight Council.
Opponents and supporters packed a public meeting where there was a police presence because feelings were reported to be running high.
Project architect Mark Jermy said 70 per cent of the housing would be one, two or three bedroom and 31 would be affordable.
Among councillors who decided the development was too big for the village, Cllr Isobel Favell, said: "We do need young people in Arreton, but only a small development might do."

agree mike, though a referendum would be a step in the right direction, we all know it would be rigged like the one in Ireland, keep having a referendum untill you vote the way the EU want you to vote, there is no reason why we could not just walk out, if we had a proper government that is, yes it may be hard for a while, but it will be nothing compared to what is actually being created for our future by this criminal organisation, yes! the younger generations will have to WORK harder for a while, but if they were given a proper wage for full time jobs, instead of the slave wages they are given now for TEMP or part time jobs, then we could turn our younger generations around by giving them their pride back, but this will never happen while we are governed by these QUISLING traitors in the lib/lab/con/eu pact

Geoffrey you say get out of the EU. The EU is collapsing under its own weight so we don't have to come out; it won't be there. Think partnerships/marriage. Look at how often they collapse.There won't be a referendum because any sensible politician will know that the OUT vote would be so loud it would deafen the nation.Why are we in it still? Perks for those who know and do the trip away every so often.BUT, when we stand on our own two feet it will be hard. Very hard and those who live by scrounging and pay outs will have to get off their backsides and do that four lettered word which is obscene in their language

Mike, tried all that for years but kept being told i havnt got enough points, im not a foreigner you see,luckily have a very decent landlady at the moment, even so have not heard from housing for 2 years now, thanks for advice though

David wright, The UK population is growing, but not its Idigenous people, the IMMIGRANT population IS growing, Immigrants that have all been ILLEGAL since at least 1997, because we the true BRITISH people have not been asked if we wish this mass,un-needed, unwelcome and illegal immigration, our illegal governments have LIED to us all and continue to LIE, the population in December will now increse by many hundreds of thousands of Romanians and Bulgarians will be allowed to just walk in here and take,take,take, although they havnt paid a penny towards their benefits, send ALL illegal immigrants back to their own countries, get out of the EU and get rid of our TRAITOR,QUISLING Lib/Lab/CON/EU pact and maybe we can sort out our country, but first we must sort out the BANKSTERS, you are all being conned, day in and day out especially by this common purpose ridden council

Its a shame the issue gets lost when comments become personal and point scoring.Bottom line on this issue is, 'not in my back yard' is not a good enough reason to complain about new development.You have to face the facts the UK population has and is increasing so new homes are needed. You might not like the fact but just saying NO to development does not change it.Saying it should be somewhere else also does not change it as people there feel the same as you do!

Mike you need to read posts properly. I believe some of your posts may be directed at me, and ( oh no I'm assuming again! ) If I'm right, you've misquoted me, so your reply to that one is incorrect, I'm not in social housing, so that's incorrect, and the IW Council has a local lettings policy IW residents have highest priority of need, the same as Fareham is asking for, and has done for years. We need to draw a line, you don't agree with any further development, I do, when it is necessary. I can see a need for it now, you can't. Face to face in a pub discussion would achieve far more than misinterpretations of internet forums. BUt maybe that's where I'm old fashioned.

COLUMBIA, SC — Every public school in South Carolina would have a trained police officer on-site, if a bipartisan bill introduced in the state Senate on Wednesday becomes law.
The state also would pay for all officers who school districts, counties and municipalities currently pay to have in schools, said Senate Minority Leader Nikki Setzler, D-Lexington.
Senate President Pro Tempore John Courson, R-Richland, is a cosponsor of the bill, which by the end of Wednesday had 14 cosponsors in the 46-member Senate.
The plan could cost the state between $30 million and $40 million a year, Setzler estimated, freeing up money that school districts now spend on school resource officers to use in other ways.
Setzler said he introduced the bill after comments by SLED Chief Mark Keel at a meeting last week where state law enforcement and education leaders discussed school safety. That meeting was called in response to last months slaughter in Newtown, Conn., where a gunman shot and killed 20 children at an elementary school. Keel said having school resource officers in every school is the best defense.
After the Newtown massacre, the National Rifle Association endorsed having armed guards at every school. School resource officers differ in that they are police officers trained to work in schools. They provide security, counseling and teach.
Youre not going to be able to always prevent it, but its another step in trying to prevent tragedy here, Setzler said.
In South Carolina, school resource officers largely have been placed on high school and middle school campuses. However, in the wake of the Newtown shooting, districts across the state from Spartanburg to West Columbia to North Charleston have taken steps to place more police officers in more schools.
But not all school districts can afford that expense, supporters of Setzlers bill say.
Gov. Nikki Haleys spokesman was noncommittal on whether the governor would support Setzlers proposal.
As a former legislator herself, the governor knows what was introduced today may not be what ends up on her desk, spokesman Rob Godfrey said. When a bill arrives on her desk, shell be happy to weigh in.
Speaking broadly about education in her State of the State speech Wednesday, Haley said she wanted to start a dialogue with lawmakers, including Setzler, about how best to address the challenges facing the state.
S.C. House Speaker Bobby Harrell, R-Charleston, said he has not read the bill yet, but he applauded the Senate for putting a bill out to begin this dialogue. ... We need to figure out how we make sure that our kids are protected.
Asked whether the Houses conservative Republican majority would support paying the added expense, Harrell said: I dont know whether there will be support for that kind of money being spent at the state level as opposed to finding other ways to encourage and help local districts.
However, state Rep. Kenny Bingham, R-Lexington, who chairs a House education budget subcommittee, said helping school districts hire school resource officers is his highest priority one, he added, that other House budget writers share.
The approach likely would be to provide supplemental support rather than taking on the full cost of paying for resource officers statewide. The challenge will be finding an approach that is fair to all districts, Bingham said.
State Rep. Bakari Sellers, D-Bamberg, introduced a similar bill in the S.C. House last week. It has no cosponsors.
Sen. Chip Campsen, R-Charleston, among the Senate bills four Republican and 10 Democratic cosponsors, said he cannot understand how some people think that evil stops at the schoolhouse door.
People protect their money and homes with guns, he said. But somehow we dont protect our most precious possession, our children, with guns.

The Water of Leith Walkway is a beautiful 12 3/4 mile walk through the heart of Edinburgh, however, there are a number of engineering works and walkway diversions in place at present. At Ballgreen near Murrayfield the tram works are affecting a short section of path. Local diversions are in place. There is a short diversion near Dean Village following a landslide. From Stockbridge down to Bonnington the river in undergoing extensive engineering works due to the flood defence scheme. Thankfully the majority of the walkway is now open again.

Explore Edinburgh's hidden natural asset, the Water of Leith. Flowing for 24 miles from its source in the Pentland Hills, the river winds its way through the heart of our capital to its outflow into the Firth of Forth at Leith. Once Edinburgh's industrial heartland, the valley was host to over 70 mills harnessing the power of the water to produce paper, fabric, and flour with the river mouth supporting a vibrant dock and boat building industry. Today the river is home to a wide diversity of plants and animals from wild garlic and orchids to brown trout, heron, kingfisher and otter, and can be explored on foot or bike along the 12 3/4 mile Water of Leith Walkway.
'6 Times' a work by Antony Gormley has arrived in the Water of Leith, please click on this picture to link to the National Galleries of Scotland website and discover where the figures are.
Gormley Update 2013 - Sadly due to flood events along the river towards the end of the year, 4 of the statues are not visible; Bells Mills Man (near the GMA), Stockbridge Man, Powderhall Man and Bonnington Man are all down. The statues are designed to fall over in flood events so they do not cause an obstruction. When the Galleries of Modern Art let us know when the statues will be righted we will update this page and the news feed.

Stillwater NewsPress
STILLWATER, Okla. —
Less than a week ago, the Stillwater High School wrestling team was riding high on the wave of momentum. The Pioneers finished second at the Larry Wilkey Invitational in Jenks and were looking to continue that strong second-half start with duals against Enid and Ponca City.
Now Stillwater is left picking up the pieces and just hoping to stay somewhat competitive as they face Ponca City at 7 p.m. Thursday on the road.
"Saturday night I would have told you that we were flying high and there was no stopping us now," Stillwater coach Doug Chesbro said. "But things happen like that. You can't dictate injury, you can't do anything about illness and you can't do anything about kids being 17-year-old kids. These things happen. ... I guess in a way that makes the whole thing exciting because you really never know what to expect and you never know what's coming down the road. You have to train your team to be resilient — to be able to fight through adversity."
Stillwater may be down a wrestler or two — possibly even three if 106-pound freshman Kennedy Monday isn't healthy enough to go — but Chesbro said those expectations don't diminish just because the Pioneers are lacking some of their big guns.
"We have some kids that don't always get an opportunity to shine because so many of those kids that I have are truly powerhouses in the state at their weight class," Chesbro said "I have kids that are in the wings that could be full-time varsity wrestlers for a lot of different teams in the state so that's a luxury for us. Mason Mefford is one of them. Mason is a sophomore that's been behind those guys for basically his entire high school career and now is getting an opportunity to show what he can do."
Mefford earned a 12-4 major decision over Enid's Gabe Farias in the 120-pound match Tuesday as the Pioneers beat the Plainsmen 42-28. Now he's going to be asked to step up even more against a more experienced Ponca City team.
"The last couple of years we've been able to hold them off and win two straight, but they're better than they have been the last two years," Chesbro said. "This is the best team they've had in three or four years — they're loaded. They are a lot like the other teams that we've competed against. They're tough in the upper weights, where we sometimes struggle. But not only do they have some strong upper weights, they are solid in the lower weights too."
Making things even more challenging for the Pioneers, Stillwater will be without state qualifier Benny Teegarden — who will likely be out for a majority of the next month after suffering an injury against Enid's Billy Grothe Tuesday.
"It was a big hit to the team to see Benny go down like that," Chesbro said. "Benny is a well-liked kid on the team that has a lot of respect from kids on the team and from people around the state. ... It hurts in a lot more ways that just having a quality wrestler on your team when you lose somebody like Benny.
"Hopefully we'll be able to get King (Williams) back from his injury and bump him up to 126 to take Benny's spot and then go ahead and leave Mason Mefford in the lineup at 120. Even though we're losing some quality points there, we're still putting quality people on the mat. I'll put up Mason Mefford against anybody out there and I'll put up King Williams against anybody out there and take our chances. I'm not concerned about some big drop off. I just have to get people to where they need to be to give them the best chance to have success."
Sometimes it's not about winning or losing — even against a rival like Ponca City. And while a victory over the Wildcats could send Stillwater's confidence through the roof, just being able to tread water during the rockiest waves of the season could pay off in the end for the Pioneers.
"I can't guarantee that we're going to be as competitive as we would have been a week ago or as competitive as we would be a month from now," Chesbro said. "We're not at our full strength and that's going to make it tough to make a show, and that's OK. If we were going to have a lull sometime during the season, I'd rather it be now than a month from now. ... We'll keep our head above water and we'll keep swimming. Hopefully in a month from now, everybody will be back to where they need to be and we'll be able to get back to where we were and where we planned to be all year long."

The SUU Asia Center, run by KORUS (Korea-USA) Education Institute, is an official center of our university. Through direction and close guidance from SUU, the center offers an intensive ESL program (EAP: English for Academic Purposes) in Asia and helps students transition to our campus for eventual matriculation to the university. The students should complete at least Level 4 of the EAP program at the Asia Center in Seoul and, when they are ready, move to SUU.
The SUU Asia Center provides easy access to high quality educational opportunities in the U.S. by tackling many barriers to entry for qualified Asian students. The center's programs are specially designed to meet the unique needs of international students from Asia by addressing the critical issues pertaining to studying in the U.S. such as: understanding the admission process, developing academic English skills, acclimating to the traditions and culture of a different country, and future career advising. The Asia Center only selects eligible students in Asia and provides necessary instructional services strictly following the academic standards of SUU before they move on to degree programs. In addition, The Asia Center adequately prepares the students for successful adaptation into a new academic environment in the United States by maintaining dedicated advisors and mentors at the SUU campus to assist students with various academic and personal needs.
In the near future, the Asia Center also plans to offer SUU certificate programs, credit programs and eventually degree programs. The Asia Center will also act as an intermediary, when needed, between SUU and Asian universities.
For international students, the SUU Asia Center offers an opportunity to substitute the TOEFL requirement with the EAP English language program. The Asia Center offers the intensive ESL program to students in Seoul. Students who meet all admission criteria, except for their TOEFL score, are given conditional admission to the university and, once they successfully complete Level 5, they are automatically matriculated to the SUU degree program of their choice.
Students who complete Level 4 in Asia Center are enrolled in Half & Half program. They are allowed to take some regular university courses through consultation with the admissions counselor. This provides students the advantage of making progress towards their intended degree by earning academic credits before matriculating to the university.
Taking classes with the regular university students also allows the language students to practice and hone their language skills. At many English language-only schools, the entire student body is made up of non-native English speakers, and it is often difficult to practice speaking English or associate with native speakers. Therefore, the Half & Half program is a great benefit to the students.
The most unique feature of the SUU Asia Center program is the special attention and guidance provided to our students on campus. In order to ensure their success, the Asia Center employs a resident advisor on the SUU campus who is available to provide guidance with academic issues, campus life and to address personal adjustment issues for all of our students. These services are essential for successful completion of their degrees, particularly for international students who are not familiar with the U.S. academic system. All students of the Asia Center receive:

SEATTLE -- The people of Seattle have started weighing in on what they want in their next police chief.
At the first of seven community workshops to be held around the city over the next ten days, citizens from the University District told workshop leaders that they want the mayor to choose an innovative leader, someone well connected to the community, someone who will go into the neighborhoods and listen to feedback, someone who will embrace reform, not fight it.
"This new police chief, can't be the parochial--this is the way we do it, there's no change -- that's not the answer to the city and our community," said University District resident Kent Wills.
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray sent a loud message when he brought in retired Assistant Chief Harry Bailey earlier this month, to run the department as Interim Police Chief until a permanent chief is selected. Bailey is not applying for the job, a condition set by the mayor.
In just three weeks, Bailey has cleaned house in the top ranks and a established a compliance bureau to ensure that the reforms outlined in a Consent Decree between the City of Seattle and the Department of Justice are getting done.
The federal monitor overseeing the reforms recently issued a scathing report, saying the police department was slow to change, in part because of resistance in the top ranks.
Across the country, law enforcement leaders are watching what's happening in Seattle and checking out the opportunities.
"I think we don't lack candidates (for the chief's job). This is a wonderful city to live in," said Ron Sims, co-chair of the Seattle Police Chief Search Committee.
Sources tell KING 5 that close to two dozen people have already expressed interest in the police chief's position and the application process hasn't even opened yet. The mayor is expected to name a search firm later this week.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

The thruster is available in three specific impulse classes, i.e. 547s, 2500s and 3500s. The higher the specific impulse of the thruster, the less propellant mass is needed to achieve a certain delta-V. When the thruster operates at 3500s specific impulse, the reaction mass (charged spray) mainly consists of individual ions. In that case, the thruster is highly efficient in terms of propellant mass, but the thrust to electrical power ratio is relatively low. Therefore, a thruster in the 3500s specific impulse class is characterized by low thrust levels and long flight times.
If a higher thrust level (i.e. a shorter flight time) is required, a thruster in a lower specific impulse class could be more attractive. A thruster in the 2500s specific impulse class can produce higher thrust levels at a certain electrical power than a thruster in the 3500s specific impulse class. However, because of the lower specific impulse, the thruster is less efficient in terms of propllant mass. The reaction mass in the 2500s specific impulse class consists of a combination of individual ions and small charged droplets.
Even higher thrust levels can be obtained with a thruster in the 547s specific impulse class. Such a thruster could produce roughly 6 times higher thrust level than a thruster in the 3500s specific impulse class, using the same electrical power. Again, this comes with a penelty in terms of propellant mass. The reaction mass of this thruster mainly consists of charged droplets.
A single thruster unit can be used on satellites with a mass up to approximately 25kg. For heavier satellites, multiple thruster units could be used. When pressing "SUBMIT" an impression of the propulsion system in a 3-unit cube-sat is given.
This tool is based on the results of the first development phase. The data produced by this tool may not represent the performance of the most current thruster design. As soon as more accurate data becomes available, the tool will be updated. Microthrust and its partners will not accept any liability for the results produced by this tool. Use of the results is solely the responsibility of the user.

Fire destroyed home near Union,Nebraska Wednesday afternoon.
The Cassgram reports Union, Nehawka and Murray volunteer fire departments fought the blaze at 3505 12th Avenue (between Klein Road and Waconda Road). Units first responded to the 1800 square foot home just after 2pm and were on scene until about 6pm. Union and Nehawka returned about a half hour later as the fire rekindled.
The house was owned by the family of the late Richard A. Erixson, Jr. who died in a motorcycle crash in Omaha on July 30th, said Union Fire Chief Bill Bescheinen. He said the family was in the process of moving out of the residence. No one was at home of the time of the fire.
The state marshal's office is investigating the cause.

By MARTA HEPLER DRAHOS
TRAVERSE CITY — Mark and Lexie Thiel like to watch football together. But until last year, playing the game might have been impossible for the father-and-daughter team.
"For the longest time, I was struggling with my weight," said Lexie, 17, who quit soccer to play volleyball but never seemed to make her school team. "It was getting bad and I knew I needed to do something."
At about the same time, Mark was diagnosed with diabetes.
"I had pretty good control, but I was missing my mark," he said.
That's when Mark's wife, a nurse, learned about the Grand Traverse Bay YMCA Youth WOW program and encouraged Lexie to participate. The four-month weight management and healthy lifestyle program is for youth from 10 to 17. It includes group nutrition sessions with a Munson Community Health Center dietitian, group training sessions with YMCA fitness staff, and a four-month Y membership for the whole family to work out together.
"It works because we look at everything," said Diane Roach, who teaches the nutrition part of the program, which emphasizes behavioral changes rather than dieting. "It addresses nutrition and eating styles, habits and information, as well as exercise. In all the evaluations, exercise is listed as the fun part. Fun activities and learning new sports is what's making this rock."
Roach said parents are involved in the nutrition component of the program because family systems change slower. Participants learn things like appropriate portion sizes, eating slowly and tuning into their "fullometer," mindful instead of unconscious eating, smart eating when dining out, and green-, yellow- and red-light foods.
But few parents have been as supportive as Mark when it comes to the fitness portion of the program.
"We're already really close, and to do this together is one more thing," said Lexie, who began working out with her dad and playing games like pickleball, tennis and raquetball. "When there's two people you can say, 'If you can do it, I can do it.'"
Over the course of 16 weeks, the Traverse City West High School senior lost four inches around her waist and, more importantly, gained conditioning. She no longer huffs and puffs going up stairs and has more breath control, which comes in handy when she sings with her school choirs.
"The first couple of weeks I was unsure about it and then I fell in love with it," said Lexie, who began coming to the Y even on off-class days and got a scholarship to repeat and help out with the program. "No matter how bad my day went, I was happy when I left the gym.
"You slowly start to realize the toning. The clothing fits better, you look better."
Now she eats a healthy breakfast, which encourages her to eat healthfully all day, watches what and when she eats, and runs for about 15 minutes a day to "warm up." When she can schedule it around her advance placement classes, she works with weights and cardio training at the Y. She and Mark also walk, hike and cycle together around their home and participate in area 5K races.
"She's very astute at looking inside herself at what motivates her and drives her," Mark said.
Roach said Lexie's results aren't unusual among program participants.
"They all improve their fitness levels. Every one of them can go up stairs easier. Just about every one lost inches around the waist, and BMIs (Body Mass Index) go down," she said. "The most important thing is empowering them. They see that exercise is fun and, 'Gee, I can run.'"
A new winter Youth WOW session begins Jan. 9. The cost is $272 for Y members and $392 for non-members. Scholarship assistance may be available.
For more information or to register, call 933-YMCA (933-9622) or print out the scholarship form at www.gtbayymca.org. The deadline to register is Jan. 4.

Vicci Miller has been a driving force in the UK womens scene for quite a while now. I remember seeing her ride in Tignes about 6 years ago and was really impressed to see a crazy girl pulling 5s off the big kicker. She is still one of the ballsiest female riders out there and is never one to shy away from the big jumps. As well as being a driving force over here in the UK she is a well known face and big part of the scene in her adopted resort of Mammoth in the states. Vicci wanted to concentrate on riding park so she decided to head over to the states a few years ago now to ride the parks of California. This turned out to be a great decision for her and as her riding went from strength to strength she started bringing home quite a few trophies and impressive slopestyle results including a few notable Triple Crown placings.
She has had her fair share of injuries over the years but is a tough girl and always bounces back as strong as before. She has spent the last season filming for the next Chunkyknit Productions film, "Transfer" after taking a few months to get her feet back after an ACL surgery last summer. We were really pleased to have her filming with us and especially pleased to see her riding so well after being injured. She plans to keep filming and riding slopestyle comps and to keep pushing the limits of womens riding. She really is an inspirational rider and a very strong and individual person.

---- — Back in 2004 Northwestern Michigan College was facing tight budgets while also trying to justify why taxpayers were subsidizing two high-profile but high-priced programs — aviation and the maritime academy.
Now, the aviation program is luring students from China, Great Britain and India and expects more. The college said international students will account for about 25 percent of the program's flight hours this year. International students logged about 500 hours last year and the college expects up to 1,500 hours this year.
That's a far cry from the day not so long ago — 2007 — when the college was spending about $350,000 in general fund money to prop up the aviation program. By last year that was down to just $70,000 and should be even lower this year.
NMC President Tim Nelson signed an agreement earlier this month with a Beijing-based group to explore exchange programs and possibly partner on a flight training academy in China. NMC's program is part of a wider movement in which U.S.-based aviation programs are forming international partnerships to train pilots across the globe.
"Our aviation program is very highly respected nationally and internationally," said Andy Dolan, NMC's executive director for public relations and marketing. "The U.S. is the place that, all over world, they look to get trained in aviation."
The agreement between NMC and Beijing Channel Consulting is the first step toward an exchange program that could include a two-week aviation course for Chinese students at NMC and study abroad opportunities for NMC students in China.
In the long term, NMC may help develop a training academy in China.
A decade ago, the aviation program was an odd man out at the college — and a very expensive one. It was a business that was far, far outside the college's core mission and the biggest justification for its existence seemed to be that it had always been there.
There was no real student base — Traverse City was hardly an aviation hub — and students required further training before they could go into commercial aviation jobs; it was the kind of training small private businesses traditionally offered; and it was costing the college a fortune to maintain a fleet of planes.
But in 2007 the college started to turn things around. It agreed to purchase 11 Cessna 72 SP single-engine planes from a downstate firm over a 20-month period at a cost of $2.8 million but with the caveat that the company would buy back all the planes at various times for $2.35 million.
Most importantly, the college put a new focus on managing the program and eventually reduced general fund support to about $70,000.
The college aimed to increase program enrollment by 2014 with roughly 80 new students and three new positions. The program is targeted to grow to 200 students from 120 last year, including those interested in new unmanned aircraft courses and pupils from overseas flight schools wanting cheaper training costs in the U.S.
This is major change in just a few years, and the college deserves credit for turning the program around and successfully luring international students.
The new aviation partnership could help add to those numbers but could also bring NMC revenue by selling its expertise. Anything that goes to the bottom line can only help students.
The college doesn't appear to be in any danger of losing its focus on local students and local programs, and it would be remiss to not take advantage of a growing niche market that can bring in students — particularly those who pay higher out-of-state tuition — and much-needed dollars.

city, southwestern Finland. It lies on the shore of Lake Vanaja, northwest of Helsinki. The city's name is derived from the castle of Hame, parts of which date from about 1250. The town, originally chartered in 1639, was first located north of the castle but moved to its present site, a little to the south, in 1779. In 1862 Hameenlinna became the northern terminus of Finland's first railroad.

If Riverhead Town Supervisor Sean Walter wins the race to fill a seat left vacant by Ed Romaine in the Suffolk County Legislature, at least one of his town board members will run to take over the reins.
On Thursday, Riverhead Town Councilman John Dunleavy, a Republican, said he was interested in the town's top seat.
"If Sean gets elected, I'll run for town supervisor," Dunleavy said.
At the meeting, Walter outlined different scenarios that could unfold, should he win the legislator's seat in a special election to be held on Jan. 15. The date was just approved by the Suffolk County Legislature Thursday.
Should he win, Walter said the town's deputy supervisor, Jill Lewis, would take over the functions of the town supervisor, including running town board meetings and work sessions. However, he added, the deputy supervisor cannot vote. Lewis, he said, would finish up his current term, which is up on Dec. 31 of next year.
Other options, Walter said, could include a special election called by the town board, or by the governor.
Without a special election, the seat would be vacant until the next election, with the deputy supervisor filling his shoes.
Dunleavy, who said at Thursday's work session that he is unhappy with discussions on issues that take place without his input -- he said he often finds matters to be voted upon before him without discussion beforehand at work sessions -- said his discontent with the process has led to his desire to run for supervisor.
A special election, Dunleavy added, would be paid for by Suffolk County, not the town.
Walter added that if he does not win the race against opponent Al Krupski, "I would be back -- I'm not leaving."

David K. Williams, Contributor
I write about my life and business lessons.
From the Startup Rules of Josh James, founder and CEO of Domo, the all-star executive who also co-founded Omniture and took it from inception to IPO to sale for $1.8B to Adobe:
"Rule 45: No Unemployed Candidates. Always an Excuse. Too Risky. Top-Rated, Currently Employed Candidates Who Won't Leave… PERFECT."
With all due respect for your accomplishments, Josh, I disagree.
Our own company, Fishbowl, is neither public nor for sale, but we've achieved record growth (currently more than 70% through the last three tumultuous years), regional and national awards for product and management quality, and negligible turnover (under 2%) since we began in 2001. We've done all of this by doing the exact opposite of the strategy our Utah neighbor, Josh James, has described.
Consider the strong case for the traditionally "unqualified" hire. Not every company, particularly in the early stages, can afford to hire an established "superstar." I maintain that most any company, particularly in the growth phase, is better off by discovering potential stars (we call them Champions) in the making and creating a healthy holding environment that allows and encourages them to grow.
But our approach requires the right core ingredients. I've honed my skills in identifying the traits we describe as the 7 Non-Negotiables: Respect, Belief, Loyalty, Commitment, Trust, Courage and Gratitude. I've previously written about the "7 NN's" with my paired leadership partner, Mary Michelle Scott (Fishbowl President) in Forbes and in HBR.
We're looking for candidates who exhibit these characteristics, and we're watching the way they interact—their body language, eye contact, whether they are articulate—a good listener—and whether they can express what they feel without feeling nervous. Can they demonstrate strong character traits when asked how they would handle various situations in former jobs or in life? I can sense an individual's work ethic. We look for someone eager and hungry to learn, which has generally been a good barometer of the individual's work ethic as well. In 30 minutes, I can judge a prospective hire with pretty much 99% accuracy. Our managers (we call them our "Captains") have honed these sensibilities as well.
Consider our recent new hire in accounting last week. She came to us from a minimal position at Blimpie's. She's a lady who's smart—highly qualified—was formerly the CFO of a small hospital. But then she got really ill. Then the economy caused her to lose her home. The short sale of her house left her with a little money to work with, but the only job she could obtain was as the manager of a Blimpie's store for $9 an hour.
I sensed her capabilities from the moment we met. She'd never used QuickBooks (our inventory control software integrates with QuickBooks, and we run our own company on the same products and functionality we sell). Most everything we do (other than our basic financial/accounting principles) was new.
She embraced the challenge. She learned our system (eagerly) and made suggestions that within four days produced the most accurate financial reports in her area of stewardship our company has ever seen. Today she initiated a new process with our Controller that will cause our past due accounts receivable to diminish and possibly disappear. When someone is this eager and excited to excel, and is given the environment to thrive in, miracles transpire.
This is not a rare occurrence for us. Out of 18 developers (yes, our software product developers) only 2 had ever had any serious programming experience before. More typically, these individuals came with prior experience in dealing with inventory. They dealt with playground equipment, electrical or plumbing warehouses and many came from our customer support and training department. They know things about inventory beyond what engineering or even marketing could teach them. The programming skills they were able to learn.
We employ 50 individuals in support who had never worked in customer service before. The majority of our sales people came with little or no prior experience in sales.
Could this approach work for other companies? Consider the following advantages our philosophy gains:
Less-established employees have room for growth. They are fresh and eager, not fatigued or scarred.
They have no bad habits to break; only good habits to learn. You don't have to un-train them on the paradigms they've put in place somewhere else. They can blossom into anything.
They have the right attitude. With attitude, as they say, the aptitude will come.
New blood, whether young or old, can bring fresh ideas and perspectives to old problems. Their enthusiasm can be infectious. Their naiveté is some of the gold that they bring. They're not afraid to ask, " Why do you do it this way?" From the most innocent questions, we may go back to our roots and say, "That's a good point. Why do we do that?" The newest employee may be the one who prompts a positive change.
You can build lifelong relationships. Some of our employees are young; some are older. But when your company is the place an employee has been permitted to blossom and shine, they will love working with you, most likely forever. Thus, turnover is low.
Many companies will argue that the cost of taking someone on with no experience is prohibitive. We disagree. We employ the concept of agile programming through our entire organization. We use paired leadership and paired teamwork. Each new hire has someone to coach and train him or her, and within a few months, or weeks in some cases, they're fully up to speed and online.
Could this approach work for you? At a minimum, I hope I've given you the reason to consider these possibilities as you make your next set of new hires. I maintain there are many all-star/champion employees within every company's reach. You just need to recognize their potential, and then create and maintain an environment that allows them to be nurtured, developed and then to shine.
Sorry, Josh!

Editor's Note: In response to this article, Josh James, Founder and CEO of Domo, has provided a statement as well. You can read his guest post in David K. Williams' next column posted here.
This really resonated with me for a number of reasons. First, I've seen a number of studies that indicate finding highly experienced/overqualified candidates leaves a number of valuable positions open for a longer period of time. As a result, the workload on the current employees increases and creates more stress.
Also, I've heard a number of high school sports coaches echo the sentiment that new players don't have any bad habits. If you've done the same job for even three years it is very difficult to break your routine.
Very good arguments for taking under qualified talent.
Great comments.
Agreed; everyone comes into a job with some amount of training that needs to be done. More experience may lead to a smaller amount of training time, but doesn't necessarily mean that 6 months down the road, the person who was more experienced is performing the job better. Talented and motivated people, regardless of specific experience, are what make great employees.
Equally Eric a lot of people come into jobs that requires their training be un-done. Arrogant know-it-alls can be a danger to the morale and agility of any small company. I know…we had one in a senior position and we crashed and burned. Now I've started again and we operate with greater humility and with people who really want the job.
I just graduated from Michigan State and I'm what you call a "champion". If anyone wants to hire me (Serious bidders only), shoot me a message.
An excellent article, thank you! As a university graduate-soon-to-be and a young freelancer, I can feel this prejudice against fresh blood all the time. Everyone needs to be extensively tried before standing a chance to an interesting position. What it leads to, unfortunately, are enthusiastic young people becoming bored and run-down by mindless, unchallenging jobs. By the time they finally get a good position where they could blossom, their spirit is already long dead. I wish more employers shared your philosophy! So please keep spreading the word ;)
So true. When I graduated from college, I searched for a job for four months before I finally landed a perfect position that used all of my skills. The thing that made all the difference in getting that job was that I asked the interviewer to give me a challenge. I didn't have much experience, so I had to prove that I could do the job by taking on a task and getting it done both fast and well.
There are a lot of creative approaches young people can take to getting jobs. Keep trying, my friend!

On Thanksgiving Day, nine years ago, I stole my father's car.
He was 88 years old and living in a retirement community in Ojai. The previous July, he'd failed his driver's test, but he'd kept driving without a license — and therefore, without insurance. Perhaps he had forgotten that he didn't have a license, or perhaps he didn't care, but something had to be done.
