On the heels of last year's The Scents of Tang, Winnipeg choreographers/performers Renée Vandale and Alexandra Elliott return with a program of four new contemporary works.
Elliott's When All is Said is the most striking visually as dancers Hilary Crist, Elliott, Brenna Klavercamp and Carol-Ann Bohrn create their own hunched, pulsing tribe. She then spins a tale of eating mysterious purple berries in solo Morada, punctuating her own narration with lyrical sweeps across the stage.
By contrast, Vandale's Poisin, performed with Crist is a puzzler. The duo don possessed shoes — white high-tops, really — before breaking into shaking convulsions that only end once the shoes are removed. Her Sway fares better as its shows the grotesque underbelly of beauty yet still felt undeveloped.
Any show called Rupture suggests explosive power and might. This mostly uneven program — in keeping with this year's F theme — might better have been Fizzle.
— Holly Harris
From the Fringe program:
Returning after 2011's The Scents of Tang (4 Stars - CBC), Renée Vandale and Alexandra Elliott debut four contemporary dance works. Renée's duet poison is an evocative journey about two women living parallel lives wherein manipulation and rage ensue after slipping into possessed shoes. Diversely, Alexandra's solo Morada transports you to the sunny vineyards of Argentina with the story of three girlfriends on red bicycles, a flat tire, and a mysterious purple berry. An intoxicating eruption of dance!
Director: Renée Vandale & Alexandra Elliott
Cast: Carol Ann Bohrn, Hilary Crist, Brenna Klaverkamp

Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi took to the House floor today calling upon her colleagues to support the Nuclear Iran Prevention Act. Below are the Leader's remarks:
"I thank the gentleman for yielding. And I thank you for your leadership as the Ranking Member on the Foreign Affairs Committee.
"Mr. Speaker, I rise today to reiterate my strong belief that one of the basic objectives of U.S. foreign policy is to build a world free of nuclear weapons. I applauded President Jimmy Carter on his inauguration in 1977, on a cold January day. I saluted President Reagan when he made his visit to Reykjavik, Iceland and the commitment that all the many of our Presidents have made, including President Obama on this score. And one of the pillars of our foreign policy must be to end the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. In fact, to get rid of them.
"To meet that task today, our actions must be clear and our commitment must be unwavering. It must be to continue this policy of the United States to prevent any country from developing a nuclear weapons capability. That's why I offer my support for this bill today, the Nuclear Iran Prevention Act. This legislation recognizes that an Iran with a nuclear weapon would be an urgent threat to regional security, and to global security, and therefore, to the security of the United States of America.
"This measure builds on progress made in 2010 when we enacted the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions Accountability and Investment Act. That law imposed sanctions to companies that sell Iran technology services and know-how and materials for its energy sector. It was the strongest Iran sanctions legislation ever to pass by the Congress. But we must do more.
"With President Obama's strong, clear, and effective leadership, with broad bipartisan backing for a comprehensive strategy to halt Iran's nuclear program, we are seeing the results of the actions we have taken. More and more, Iran is being cut off from the financial system: Iran's oil is coming off the market; Iran's partners are cutting off ties of trade, business, and commerce. That's the way I think we should get this done: with economic sanctions. In short, Iran is feeling the bite of our sanctions, but we must keep the pressure on.
"Iran's nuclear pursuits continue. Iran's leaders refuse to change their approach in their policy. Iran's neighbors still feel the threat of the regime's declarations and actions. So our message must remain firm: Iran must suspend uranium enrichment, return to the negotiation table, and abandon its reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons.
"Now, I appreciate and have listened carefully and have the highest respect for the gentlemen, Mr. McGovern, and others who support the resolution, Mr. Ellison, who are posing the resolution have a different idea. And I think as we weigh the equities, as I say, with all due respect to that approach, which I think is a reasonable one if we were dealing with a reasonable country with a reasonable leadership, but we are not.
"I know that the proximity to Israel is a cause for concern for Israel, our partner in the Middle East, and concern for those of us who value the Israel-US relationship. But this is not. Israel has proximity, but we all have the problem. We all have the problem. If Iran were to go farther in the development of a nuclear weapon, who else would want one in the region? What message does that send about our resolve to arrive at a world free of nuclear weapons?
"So in any way, I hope that as our colleagues say that 'the new regime is going to do all these things' – I happen to think that no matter who is in power in Iran, that probably would not abandon the nuclear program calling it one for domestic and for civilian use, that may be true and I hope it is. But I do think it is really important for us because we have to make this opportunity. I hope that all of the inauguration and the new President, with talks with the U.S. and European allies and all of the rest can bear fruit.
"We can only hope those reports prove true. We hope that progress is made toward an agreement that puts an end to Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons and advances the cause of peace and security in the Middle East and around the world. Until that day comes, the Congress must continue to apply pressure. We must pursue all avenues of diplomacy and international leadership. Again, what are the pillars of our foreign policy? To protect and promote our economy, creation of jobs by promoting exports – that's on the economic side – export our values, a commitment to freedom [and] democracy throughout the world. And what does that mean? To protect the American people, our national security – an important part of that pillar of foreign policy is to rid the world of weapons of mass destruction. And make sure we are not adding countries to that club.
"And so for that reason, we must pursue, we must prevent a nuclear-armed Iran. Let's do it diplomatically. Let's do it with economic sanctions. Let's do it by encouraging dialogue, engagement, and the rest. But let's do that engagement from strength. I urge a 'yes' vote on the resolution."

In exhaustive detail, The Boston Globe has published a lengthy story on the family of the Tsarnaev brothers, the bombers of the Boston Marathon in April. If you have no interest in further reading on the bombers, you won't need to take it in. But the Globe reporters did do a masterful job, in words and with video, of further explaining how the brothers came to be the people who bombed the race. It's good journalism, and a good read, too.

I have attended Lakehill since 3rd grade. In lower school, I had amazing teachers and I enjoyed school. In middle school, however I was bullied, and because of the size of the school, I could not make any new friends or escape bullies. Rumors also spread fast in a school so small. I am more excited than I should be to attend a different high school. There are some amazing teachers, but I would not recommend Lakehill for middle or high school.
Lakehill is a wonderful school. It is incredibly inclusive. As a Lower School parent, I have found myself going to the Upper School athletic events, and my kids couldn't wait to see the musical this weekend which was fabulous! My kids came home excited to have made stocking stuffers in their Tribes (family groups than span K-12) for the stockings that are given to the 150 senior citizen guests that come for lunch in December. This week they are looking forward to performing for their grandparents in the annual Grandparents Day celebration. Their grandparents travel many, many miles for this event and love every minute of it!
This school has been everything my family and I could have wished for when searching for a school seven years ago. The teachers are top notch, in fact ten of them were selected as finalists for the Greater East Dallas Chamber's Teacher of the Year awards and two Lakehill teachers will be honored tomorrow as East Dallas Teacher of the Year (Elementary and Middle School categories). The children who attend Lakehill are truly fortunate to have such outstanding educators. We as parents benefit greatly as well. But a review is just one person's opinion. Don't take my word for it - visit the school, meet the teachers, and see how engaged the students at Lakehill are. I suspect, that like us, it might just be everything you are looking for!
I really had to laugh out loud at some of the negative posts I've read below. Lakehill is such a small, close-knit community that when someone leaves a negative review, everyone knows who is behind the keyboard and everyone knows the real story. As the father of a middle schooler who just passed through lower school, and an upper schooler, I hear a lot about what goes on between kids! I've yet to encounter a school where kids were never mean to each other, for example. But bullying? Please! Parents who call every disagreement "bullying" are laughable. If anything, the occasional spats kids have are more like arguments between siblings, because the kids spend so much time around each other that they really are like family. I've always felt that my kids were well-respected and supported at Lakehill, and they've always felt that teachers have helped them solve their problems with maturity and support. Don't believe the negative posts; visit the school, talk to the teachers, talk to the kids. You've never encountered a school with such warmth and genuine care, I promise you. You'll feel it walking through the door. Other schools are bigger, but no place has more heart.
I am a Middle School student at Lakehill who has attended here since kindergarten. I think Lakehill is a great school for a lot of reasons: the teachers are so helpful and I feel like we learn so much! Also the kids are very nice to each other and there is a lot of friendly socializing after class. The teachers will give you lots of personal attention and are available before and after school. In class you will learn a lot of interesting and very important material. I have had a great time being at Lakehill and I look forward to many more fun years here.
We had been at Lakehill for years and removed our child because the students are cliquish and tend to be extremely negative toward each other. This is the normal way of socializing. Many kids are excluded and at such a small school, that is lethal for a young person's self image. My child got a major education in what not to do, watch or talk about from classmates - not mildly offensive but completely over the top. Their social experience was not good tho we were lucky and didn't experience bullying as several others have. We have choices in Dallas and we made a poor one sending our child here.
I went to two different schools throughout my high school career, but Lakehill was truly a blessing. The teachers are amazing and I was more than prepared for college. I got into many top tier schools, INCLUDING state schools (UT, UC'S, etc.) and I can attribute that to hard work, dedication, and preparation from a great school. I have been to both Hillcrest, which I loved, but was too big for my liking, and Greenhill School which was lacking in many areas such as kindness, morals, preparation, and much more. The kids were so sweet except for the occasional bully, but that's part of school. I loved Lakehill and received a wonderful high school experience.
I knew I wanted my children to attend this school the first time I stepped through the doors. I remember how it made me smile each morning to see the Headmaster standing at the door and greeting each child by name as I dropped them off for lower school. My eldest child is a member of the "13 Year Club" (having attended from Kindergarten through Graduation); my younger child will join that club in just a few (too) short years. My graduate is living proof of the benefits of a consistent 13 year education and philosophy, earning top grades and multiple scholarships in college and making a seamless transition from "small school" to "huge university". Most of the negative statements I've seen / heard are about middle school. This age is frequently an awkward, difficult time for any kid no matter where they attend school (I know it was for me). The good news is that Lakehill provides a safe, caring environment for those lessons and they emerge from middle school as amazing young adults. At this school my children have learned to excel, participate in team sports, cheer, sing and act loudly and proudly on stage in front of hundreds of people. I could not ask for a better school.
My daughter is in Middle School at Lakehill and we are thrilled with the school! She is challenged academically, yet very supported socially. We have excellent communication with the teachers and the parents are very involved. The graduating classes continue to impress with their scholastic achievements and their invitations to top tier colleges. This school shows respect towards their students and visa versa. Lakehill handles their business! If anything does come up - they handle it in a swift, professional manner. Couldn't ask for anything more. The only thing I've ever heard is some kids want to leave and go to a larger high school. I've also seen a lot of these kids come back a year later! Bigger doesn't mean better. We're staying and feel very honored to be able to be a part of the Lakehill experience!
My child is a Middle School student at Lakehill, and I honestly can't imagine being at any other school. We chose Lakehill over Highland Park, DISD, and several other top private schools in Dallas, and are convinced on a daily basis that this was the right choice. The academics are strong, but more importantly, my child is treated with respect by peers, teachers, and the administration. Perhaps administrators who greet children at the door and know each child's name are old-fashioned to some, but I for one appreciate their personal investment in each child's success. My child's experience at Lakehill have been amazing, and we will definitely be here through graduation. One only has to look at the success of this year's graduates to know what a solid academic foundation Lakehill students receive. While reviews may be helpful, looking at the simple facts may paint a clearer picture of this school's excellence.
I have a son in Upper School and a son in Middle School at Lakehill. They have both been at Lakehill since Kindergarten and will graduate from Lakehill. Our experience has been top notch. Lakehill has an excellent administration that swiftly deals with issues and is proactive with their thinking. I could not imagine my boys at any other school.
My kids came home the other day raving about Senior Day--and they are lower school children. Senior Day recognizes each senior, where they were accepted to college and where they will be going to college. The seniors are also asked questions about their favorite memories, their favorite classes, and advice they would give to younger kids. Seniors raffle some of their favorite items to the other kids from books to shirts to art supplies to sports items--the little kids love this tradition and I suspect, even though they may not realize it now, the bigger kids will miss having the little ones around. It is a neat family dynamic to see--there is respect and admiration from both sides.
Unfortunately, the few bad reviews on this site seem to originate from the few families who have not been asked back. One of the best reasons to attend this school is that the administrators do not tolerate bullying or inappropriate behavior. We love this school for that reason alone! Not to mention the quality of the education and the dedication of the teachers - you simply won't find a more family-like atmosphere. Our family highly recommends that anyone interested in Lakehill come see for themselves. The 2013 graduates are headed to Harvard, Brown, Columbia, Tufts, Berkeley, UC-Davis, and USC to name a few! The best part about Lakehill is that the kids are not stressed out on their journey to excellence. They enjoy their time at the school, benefiting from the one-on-one teacher attention and a milieu of respect and high expectations. This is the only affordable private school in Dallas that trumps the Highland Park and other private & public schools, including the gifted programs (be careful of IB programs, as colleges do not accept those credits!); where students can be themselves; and where family matters.
I am middle school student at Lakehill. I am in touch with teachers at Lakehill because it is small. The teachers give one-on-one attention to any student who needs it. The school is set up to allow students to succeed. I also have great friends. I have not seen any bullying during my entire time at Lakehill. The school is pretty strict. The teachers do not put up with any bad behavior. I recommend Lakehill to students who care about their classes and homework and who like individual attention and praise for hard work. The high school seniors who are graduating are going to Stanford, Harvard, SMU, and many other good schools. A bunch of 7th grade kids took the SATs and tested into the Duke Gifted and Talented program. I think Lakehill is a great place to grow up.
My children graduated from Lakehill Prep from K - 12 th grade. They received such a solid education that provided them with strong critical thinking skills and the ability to quickly excell in the colleges they attend. Lakehill provides such a nurturing Lower School, an empowering Middle School experience, and an Upper School that offers advanced course opportunities that other schools simply cannot offer. The courses are planned to based upon the students needs and talents. This is part of the uniqness of an independent school of this size. The college acceptances and scholarships are very impressive, too! My children received unsolicited scholarships and many full rides.
I love Lakehill and its small size. The small size comes with a lot of perks. Perks like a lot of attention from teachers, getting to know people from various grade-levels, and being able to participate in all sports.
I attended Lakehill from kindergarten through eighth grade and loved it, but then I switched to a bigger school for high school. This new school was not what I expected it to be like. I spent a lot of my time there comparing it to my old school and missing my close friends. I missed the small class sizes, the personal attention, and the sense of family. So, I ended up coming back to Lakehill my junior year. It was a very easy transition and I'm so glad to be back where I belong.
Lakehill Preparatory, I can start off by saying that i love the school and its education program. At Lakehill everyone knows everyone so the small size benefits all. One great thing is that the students are able to get as much individual time with teachers as needed which never lets them fall behind. There is always a friendly atmosphere and smiling faces, the food is good and the lunch ladies always brighten my day!! LPS has a great sports department and all students get the chance to play, also a great volunteer program to give to the community. Since its K-12 the upper school always does fun activities with the lower school to set a great example. Lakehill is all around a fun place to be and a very relaxed environment which makes school something to look forward to in the student's eyes!!
Both of my children attended Lakehill beginning in Kindergarten. One chose to stay for high school. The other chose to attend the local high school (Woodrow pre-AP courses) to be in a larger environment. Each of my children was in the best environment for them. That being said, the college preparation at Lakehill was significantly better than the pre-AP and AP program at Woodrow. The overall level of caring and involvement of the teachers at Lakehill was greater. The response of administration to parent concerns was stronger at Lakehill. The amount of parent involvement was much higher at Lakehill. The sports at Woodrow were more competitive than at Lakehill. My child who attended Lakehill was able to participate with much success in a variety of activities achieving All-State status in football, basketball, and debate. I would highly recommend this school. However, it is a small school. So if your child is looking for a larger environment, Lakehill might not be the place for him/her.
There are a few good things about this school if you like to be sequestered in a tiny environment with little excitement. Most people are here because they don't want to be somewhere else. If the parents will let them, the kids leave. The ones living in the neighborhood have jumped ship to the DISD schools. Shocking, it would appear. However the middle and high school (Long and Woodrow) offer International Baccalaureate and a myriad of extracurricular activities and sports. I think half the sophomore class left for Woodrow. Some Lakehill veterans are freaked to learn that they can't handle the rigor of IB at Woodrow. Also WW has a very strong AP program with twice the course selections of Lakehill.

Conor Oberst and fellow Omaha musician Phil Schaffart have leased space at 5004 Dodge St., where they are planning to open a cocktail lounge.
The space was formerly occupied by Pageturners Used Books. Schaffart said the two are planning to call the space Pageturners Lounge.
Schaffart declined to give many details when reached by phone in Palm Springs, Calif., where he's on tour with M. Ward.
He said the space would be a bar, not a live music venue. He anticipated it would be several months before the lounge was open for business.
"But I will say Conor and I are opening a bar," he said.
Oberst could not be reached for comment.
According to their liquor license application, the two leased the space in February. They are planning to serve beer, wine and cocktails. They also plan patio seating facing Dodge Street.
The liquor license application is on the agenda for Tuesday's City Council meeting, though it's possible the vote will be delayed.
Chief Building Inspector Jay G. Davis has requested the vote be postponed until Oberst and Schaffart file a new certificate of occupancy, a permit for the proposed outdoor area, and permits for any fences or decks and renovation plans for the interior and restrooms.
Councilman Pete Festersen tweeted about the bar Thursday night: "New cocktail lounge being proposed by Conor Oberst and others in Dundee at 5004 Dodge."
Oberst is the frontman of the group Bright Eyes. Schaffart is a member of Bright Eyes' road crew and frontman of the Omaha band Con Dios. Both are Omaha natives.
Schaffart said the two had discussed opening a bar in Omaha for "a long time — years" and had considered several locations. They both like the Dundee neighborhood, which drew them to the old Pageturners location.
"This was the right opportunity," he said.

State Survey Results Nothing New for Montrose Educators
MONTROSE – More technological upgrades for schools, a celebration of the Montrose Academic Booster Club's 30th anniversary and new teacher survey data were the highlights of Tuesday's regular Montrose County School Board meeting.
Results from a Teaching, Empowering, Leading and Learning (TELL) Colorado survey echoed the same areas of concern presented last month during the State of the District summit, which concluded that teachers and administrators lack adequate time for lesson preparation and sufficient access to instructional technology.
Only 41 percent of Montrose County School District staff said they have enough time to meet the needs of all their students, compared to the state average of 53 percent. The study also found that only 46 percent of MCSD teachers have enough time to collaborate with colleagues about students and lesson plans – 14 points under the state average of 60 percent.
The largest discrepancy was found in the category of professional development; 33 percent of MCSD staff said they have enough time for professional development compared to the state average of 68 percent. And 37 percent agreed there are sufficient resources available for professional development – nearly half of the state average of 68 percent.
The survey is anonymous and targets licensed, school-based educators to assess teaching conditions in each school district as well as at the state level. The survey is conducted every couple of years, according to district spokesperson Mindy Baumgardner.
Baumgardner said this year the district had a 65.8 participation rate compared to 2009 which had a 32 percent response rate. To receive results, a participation rate of 50 percent is required.
"It just reinforces that we are heading in the right direction," Baumgardner said.
About 86 percent of all MCSD staff said the district is a good place to work and learn.
District expenditures highlighted at the meeting included a $11,370 purchase of 30 new iPads for Columbine Middle School. The tablet computers will be available to students on a classroom check-out basis. The board also approved a contract to resurface the track at Centennial Middle School. The school raised $35,000 for the project with another $20,000 donated by the City of Montrose.
"The city is very interested in partnering with us," District Superintendent Mark MacHale said.
The board recognized the service of the Montrose Academic Booster Club and its 30 years of service to the district. The club works with 13 district schools each month and recognizes 117 students each year with academic achievement. Baumgardner presented ABC board member Barbara Bynum with a pin recognizing the club's service for the past 30 years.
Bynum addressed the board, stating that 30 years ago the first grant given by the club was for the district's first in-classroom computer at Montrose High School.
The board also approved a facility use agreement with the Child Evangelism Fellowship-Good News Club and the purchase of wireless internet capability for Johnson and Pomona Elementary schools.

The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board and two local bargaining units have ratified collective agreements just before Bill 115 was set to impose contracts before midnight tonight (Mon. Dec. 31).
John Horgan, manager of employee relations for the Catholic Board, said this morning that the Board has new two-year deals with the Dufferin-Peel Educational Resource Workers Association and the Association of Professional Student Services Personnel.
Both deals are based on the template for settlements established by the provincial government, which calls for a wage freeze for two years. However, some members will move up the salary grid based on their experience.
"There were other minor adjustments to the collective agreements," Horgan said. "Both of these deals are subject to the approval of the ministry."
The Board ratified the agreements at a special meeting Friday while the unions approved them the week before. The groups have been negotiating since June, but bargaining really intensified the week before Christmas.
The Dufferin-Peel Educational Resource Workers Association represents 850 educational resource workers and early childhood educators.
The Association of Professional Student Services Personnel represents 240 staff who work in psychology, child and youth work services, speech and language pathology, and social work.
Yesterday, Education Minister Laurel Broten announced Ontario had reached a memorandum of understanding with the Canadian Union of Public Employees who represent 55,000 education support workers across the province including secretaries and custodians.
That will affect about 700-800 employees in Dufferin-Peel.
Horgan said he could not comment on that deal because local boards have no idea of the details. They will only learn those after the unions vote on ratification this coming weekend.
The Board is also not sure whether or not it will be required to negotiate agreements with its CUPE locals, as was required with teachers and other unions.

Sandhoff disease
Other Names for this Disease
- Beta-hexosaminidase-beta-subunit deficiency
- GM2 gangliosidosis, type 2
- Hexosaminidase A and B deficiency Disease
- Sandhoff-Jatzkewitz-Pilz disease
- Total hexosaminidase deficiency
See Disclaimer regarding information on this site. Some links on this page may take you to organizations outside of the National Institutes of Health.
[1][2] The most common and severe form of Sandhoff disease becomes apparent in infancy. Infants with this disorder typically appear normal until the age of 3 to 6 months when their development slows and muscles used for movement weaken. Other forms of Sandhoff disease have been described where much milder signs and symptoms begin in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood. These forms are very rare. Sandhoff disease is caused by mutations in the HEXB gene.[1] These mutations cause a deficiency of the enzyme beta-hexosaminidase, which results in the accumulation of certain fats (lipids) in the brain and other organs of the body.[2] Sandhoff disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.[1]Sandhoff disease is an inherited lipid storage disorder that progressively destroys nerve cells (neurons) in the brain and spinal cord.

November 16, 2012
After a UVa student was allegedly abducted last Friday night on her way home, a few residential advisers put together an expanded self-defense class to refresh students on how to stay alert on and off grounds.
"If I see you on your phone and I get you from behind, you're not going to be able to identify me cause you're on the phone," UVa Police Officer Angela Tabler tells the students.
Officer Tabler reminds students of the little things that, if you make it a habit, can keep you more aware of your surroundings.
"Sometimes you do find yourself walking back from the library alone and you think everything's going to be fine because you trust the community but unfortunately things happen," said third-year student, Chumma Tum. "So, I think this is a great opportunity to learn how to protect myself if God forbid anything happens to me walking home from grounds."
Students are given warnings and safety tips through different outlets throughout the school year but organizers say it takes an event that's close to home to put everything in perspective.
"My friends still go to Runk Dining Hall all the time and they've been swiped in by that guy and thought he was so friendly," Tum said. "Then just out of the blue this happens and it just blows your mind that this can happen at such a great university,"
Officer Tabler told students to target certain vulnerable areas of the body, if being attacked. The eyes, groin area, shins, tops of the feet and throat are areas where you can strike the attacker in order to get away.
Tabler said she does not necessarily recommend getting pepper spray because it is not readily available if you need it. "It'll be at the bottom of your bag and you'll never get it in time," she said. "Your personal weapons, hands and feet, are what will keep you safe."

Air Intake Temperature Sensor
What is the Air Intake Temperature Sensor?
Also commonly referred to as the IAT sensor, air charge temperature (ACT) sensor, and manifold air temperature (MAT) sensor, the air intake sensor measures the temperature of the outside air entering the engine. Since cooler air is denser, this temp sensor helps the computer regulate fuel for optimal performance in any degree weather.
Where is this sensor found on my car?
Depending on the vehicle, this part can be found in the air cleaner housing, air intake hose, or built into the mass air flow sensor.

Last week Minnesota Revenue Commissioner Myron Frans was in New Ulm, making the case for Governor Mark Dayton's plan for tax reform. Later in the week, Dayton delivered a similar message to the Humphrey Institute at the University of Minnesota.
Any talk of tax reform, of course, draws criticism from conservatives that we don't need more taxes, we need to live within our means. We don't need to tax more, they say, we need to spend less.
We agree with the idea that state and federal governments need to control spending. Taxing more is not the sole solution to budget deficits, as Gov. Dayton suggests.
But we think there is a need to separate the issues of taxing and spending in the political debate.
Taxing policy decides how money comes it to the government. Spending policy dictates how the money goes out. It has been evident for some time that Minnesota's system of taxing is in need of an overhaul. It has become increasingly complex, and increasingly dependent on the property tax. The property tax classifications have increased, and the number of income tax credits and deductions has gone up.
Each attempt to ease the tax burden on one group of taxpayers, over the years, has increased the burden on others. Look at the way property taxes jumped for commercial properties last year after the state monkeyed with the homestead credit system for an example of the law of unintended consequences.
The state should be able to overhaul its tax system, make it fairer and make it simpler, without leading to increased spending. That is an entirely separate issue that the Legislature battles over every two years.
We think it is possible to separate the two issues. Let's make our tax system work, and then worry about how much we want to collect and spend.

Greene County lost a good friend and a nice guyPosted Friday, February 12, 2010, at 4:56 PM
The Greene County area lost a dear friend and a bonafide war hero this week with the passing of Sherl Edward Hasler.
The 89-year-old Bloomfield resident died Feb. 9.
Sherl was someone that I would call a friend and a real joy to talk with.
He always had a smile on his face.
He was a part of the fast-fading "Greatest Generation" of the same era as my own dad, who grew up in southern Indiana during the deprivation of the Great Depression, and then went on to fight in World War II.
Over the years, I have had occasion several times to write about his war time experiences and later his work at the old NAD Depot at Burn City that is today one of the largest military bases in the world.
The Naval Ammunition Depot (NAD) was commissioned Dec. 1, 1941. The initial mission was to prepare, load, renovate, receive, store, and issue all types of ammunition, including pyrotechnics and illuminating projectiles, and to act as a principal source of supply at a most critical time -- the early days of World War II.
To move the materials, a railroad was needed.
In 1941 at the age of 20, Sherl helped lay the first railroad line at the depot center, which was soon the largest Naval inland railroad switch yard in the world.
He was later a brakeman on the rail line that measured more than 180 miles.
"I helped to unload the first load of material that came into the railroad here," Hasler told me in 2004 during one of the annual retirement reunion gatherings at NSWC Crane.
Soon World War II broke out with the attack at Pearl Harbor. Hasler, at the time 22, who was raised near the Mineral community in Greene County, was drafted and went for induction into the U.S. Army on Oct. 2, 1942.
His 37 months of military service with the 862nd EAB Battalion took him to the front lines of war in England, Germany, France, Holland, and Belgium. He was discharged Dec. 5, 1945.
It was difficult to get Sherl to talk much about his war days, and he would simply say in a soft voice, "It was bad, but we made it."
A couple years back he penned a book about his war experiences. It was something that made him proud -- a legacy to leave his family.
After he was discharged from the military, he came back to his old job at Crane.
In May 1943, the depot was renamed the Naval Ammunition Depot, Crane, in honor of Commodore William Montgomery Crane, the Navy's first Chief of the Bureau of Ordnance. During World War II, civilian employment reached almost 10,000 and more than 1,300 Navy and Marine Corps personnel were assigned to the installation.
In the years after the end of World War II, Crane began to develop the expertise in engineering and electronics that has carried the facility into a leadership position in today's Navy.
He went on to complete 38 years of civil and military service -- retiring from NSWC Crane in January 1979 as the operational supervisor for the railroad.
The Bloomfield resident told me that he enjoyed returning to the center each year for the homecoming event and being able to see some of his former co-workers and buddies.
But I remember he told me, "There aren't many of them left."
Hasler acknowledged that the appearance of the base has changed since he first came to work as a young man. There are many more buildings scattered throughout the property than when he first worked there.
After his retirement, Sherl spend many hours enjoying his woodworking shop where he crafted many items of furniture.
He came to the rescue for my family a few years ago, when he re-tooled a broken down baby cradle that was used by my oldest daughter as an infant. Sherl painstakingly restored it. It is simply beautiful.
In recent years, when his health would permit it, he liked to hang out on Thursday mornings with the Newberry Cafe Veterans Club -- a diverse gathering of local military veterans from all branches of service who like to sit down, sip on some coffee and talk about the old days.
Sherl will be laid to rest on Valentine's Day.
He is survived by his wife, Eva Nell (Fortner) Hasler; sister, Enid Bohley Axe, and two daughters, Denise Robertson, Benecia, Calif., and Joyce Long, Greenwood,; three grandchildren, Liam Robertson, Chris and Valerie Long.
Visitation will be Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the funeral at 2 p.m. at Jenkins Funeral Home in Bloomfield.
Memorial contributions may be made to the Bloomfield Church of Christ.
Sherl was a good man and a friend to our community.

Just thought I'd let you know, great story Nick!

Yes Nick, this was a great story. Mr. Hasler sound like a good man. The way you describe him reminds me of my Uncle Paul. My Uncle Paul was in WWII in the battle of the Bulge and at Normandy. He is 84 years old now and in his twilight years. He too does'nt like to give much details about war. He loves to quote Abe Lincoln "The only good thing about war is it's ending".

The Geminid meteor shower 2012, the final major meteor shower of every year and likely to be the best, peaks overnight Dec. 13 until dawn on Dec. 14.
If you liked the Perseids meteor shower 2012 in August, you should love this show. NASA reports that the Geminids are a relatively young meteor shower, with the first sightings occurring in the 1830s with rates of about 20 per hour.
Over the decades the rates have increased, regularly spawning between 80 and 120 per hour at its peak on a clear evening.
How spectacular is it? Just take a look at some spectacular photos of the Geminids.
Earthsky.org reports the Geminids peak might be around 2 a.m. on Dec. 13, because that's when the shower's radiant point is highest in the sky as seen around the world.
The Geminid meteor shower is named after the constellation Gemini, which is located in roughly the same point of the night sky where the Geminid meteor shower appears to originate.
Geminids are pieces of debris from 3200 Phaethon, basically a rocky skeleton of a comet that lost most of its meat and skin -- its outer covering of ice -- after too many close encounters with the sun.
Tips for watching, from Earthsky.org:
Most important: a dark sky. To watch meteors, you need a dark sky away from city lights.
Know your dates and times. Best viewing of the Geminids will probably be from late evening tonight Thursday, Dec. 13 until dawn Friday, Dec. 14.
What to bring: You can comfortably watch meteors from many places, assuming you have a dark sky: your back yard or deck, the hood of your car, the side of a road.
Consider a blanket or reclining lawn chair, a thermos with a hot drink, binoculars for gazing along the pathway of the Milky Way. Be sure to dress warmly enough.
Are the predictions reliable? Although astronomers have tried to publish exact predictions in recent years, meteor showers remain notoriously unpredictable.
Your best bet is to go outside at the suggested time -- and hope.
Don't have access to a telescope? The North Georgia College & State University's Coleman Planetarium in Dahlonega invites you and your family for stargazing. Check out the fall schedule featuring "Public Education Nights" on most Fridays at 8 p.m.
Share your tips for photographing the showers, and tell us your favorite places in the area to sneak off to view the skies in the comments!

"Not many books make me happy to read and I go along with. But this book hits it spot on. I really think "Manners in a digital world" needs to be given to everyone. In fact I wish I had a case of these and as people break the common sense rules and show rudeness I could just hand these out to them." Amazon reader review

Brazilian Ecosystems: The Protection and Management of Biodiversity
Explore Brazil's Rainforests and coastal regions through hands-on field studies.
Brazilian Ecosystems is a hands-on field based study abroad program with both Fall Semester and Summer Term options (see Schedule for approx. dates). Since 1989, this program has engaged students in field studies across a variety of biomes in Brazil. Both fall and summer students begin the program together with the Comparative Ecology of Brazilian Rainforest Ecosystems course. After four-weeks, the summer program concludes and the fall semester students continue their studies in Brazil.
"…the best academic experience of my life and one which I will never forget."
- Brian Yates, Rowan University
Comparative Brazilian Ecology Program for Summer Term Students
Both Summer and Fall students explore the flora, fauna, and ecological characteristics of the Amazon Rainforest, Atlantic Coastal Rainforest, and coastal marine systems.
Advanced Studies and Field Internship for Fall Semester Students
Fall semester students continue in Brazil with a Portuguese language intensive and homestay in Curitiba, and advanced studies of the impact of human activities on biodiversity and ecosystem function. Each student also engages in a month-long field internship in ecology or conservation, based on their individual interests.
Leadership and Program Partners
Director Suzanne Kolb, PhD leads the program on-site and works with each student on program preparations. She is assisted by Brazilian professors, research scientists and activists, who provide local expertise on current environmental issues facing each region. This program is affiliated with the Universidade Federal do Paraná and the National Institute of Amazonian Research.

Women's Bush Poplin Convertible Pants 24 24
Comfy....Fabric washes & dries well If you are a "Boomer" or not, that needs a fuller fit these Convertible Pants are for you. I'm 66 years of age, 5'3", thicker in the waist & butt, weigh 175 lbs & very active. I ordered the Petite & had to let the hem down as much as I could, about 1/2" to have a comfortable length for my height. I would have ordered a Regular & shortened them but the legs have zippers at the ankle & that alteration is MUCH more difficult. The cotton Poplin fabric is of good quality that washes & dries well. If you are particular about little wrinkles & know what an Iron is used for, they may need a tad of ironing on the seams but you can easily get away without using that dreaded four letter word IRON at all :o ) February 18, 2014
Perfect pants for Africa Love the fabric and fit. I had been looking at these pants because the mornings in Africa can be cool but the afternoons can be quite hot. To be able to pack one pair of convertible pants instead of one pair of long pants and one pair of shorts is ideal. February 12, 2014
Size was great. Have trouble getting the waist and hips to fit in pants. These fit both areas just great. Even the length was perfect. They were a little over my budget and so I waited awhile before I ordered them, but really am glad I decided to go for it! March 9, 2014
wish I would rather have an elastic waist, more pockets (rear & leg) and lighter material, but the fit is exactly right. I would recommend to women who like a' to fit' waistline. The pants you have with an elastic waist did not suit my needs. Material is excellent, but not for a warmer climate. March 6, 2014
From the reviews I ordered a size larger than I would normally order. The pants are a little bit big but I got them for hiking and you don't want them tight. I like the fact the waist band is adjustable. February 14, 2014
The pants have a ferl the fabric wonderful washable and natural and so are the details however the waist is very tight while the legs hips quite wide! So this is a product for that shape woman. They did not fit my shape although I really liked them. They could modernize the shape to a tigher leg and lower waist for easier fit for a certain type of woman. January 31, 2014
bush poplin convertible pants These are fantastic! Only complaint is that I still need to roll them up a little as the petite is still a little too long. February 3, 2014
Great Convertible Pants Love these pants...should have purchased them years ago. The convenience of converting to shorts when arriving at a warm destination is great! Really nice fabric. Wish they came in a longer length (pedal pusher or knee length). January 8, 2014

SOURCE Swedish Medical Center
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Feb. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Swedish Medical Center is proud to announce a three year, exclusive partnership with the Loveland Ski Club: Love What Moves You. The partnership is generating extra excitement as both Swedish Medical Center employees and Loveland Ski Team members are glued to the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games to see the young favorite Mikaela Shiffrin compete. Over the past 4 years Shiffrin has competed and trained at Loveland Ski Area in preparation. Shiffrin placed fifth in her Olympic debut, missing a medal by 0.23 seconds in the Giant Slalom. At only 18 years old, Shiffrin is a favorite in the upcoming Ladies' Slalom.
The relationship between Swedish Medical Center and Loveland Ski Club is one that will provide education and injury prevention for club members and their families as well as medical directorship of the club. Additionally, Swedish Medical Center provides a one-call option to club members and their families for healthcare resources: 1-855-SWEDSPRT (1-855-793-7778).
"Skiing is such a part of the culture of Colorado," said Mary M. White, President and CEO Swedish Medical Center. "We are very excited to have the opportunity to be a part of not only a Colorado past time, but also a club and a mountain that attracts skiers from across the Front Range. It's members of our community that are enjoying skiing at Loveland and we want to serve them in every way that we can."
The Loveland Ski Club consists or more than 100 racers, ranging in age from five to 20-years-old, 12 coaches and 82 families who live throughout the Front Range.
"Partnering with Swedish is a natural fit for us," said John Hale, Director of Loveland Ski Club. "They are such a figure in the community, they are a Level One Trauma Center and while they have expertise in the types of injuries we can see in this sport, they also have a commitment to education throughout the community."
The health education and injury prevention will be a combination of programs selected by and created for the club members and their families, as well as seminars from the Spirit of Women program providing age appropriate and relevant health and wellness topics. Seminars are open to the public and include everything from 'It's a Slippery Slope: Injury Prevention' to 'Hit Me With Your Best Shot' a seminar about teenage vaccines.
Medical directorship is provided by Orthopedic Physicians of Colorado and if needed, the orthopedic trauma team consisting of Wade Smith, MD and Steve Morgan MD in the event of a traumatic injury.
"We believe in education and injury prevention," said John Reister, MD of OPC. "We also understand that ski racing is an extreme sport and injuries do happen. We are excited to provide fast, quality, comprehensive care to the racers and families of the Loveland Ski Club."
This partnership is another way Swedish Medical Center is continuing their long tradition of being involved in the community they serve and providing education and comprehensive care. For more information visit www.SwedishHospital.com or visit us at our booth at one of the many races hosted by the Loveland Ski Club throughout the season.
