South Florida School Districts Improve Student Performance on FCAT Reading, Mathematics and ScienceTallahassee, Fla., June 6, 2014 - Commissioner of Education Pam Stewart today recognized school districts in South Florida for improved student performance on state assessments in reading, mathematics and science.
"I applaud teachers and school leaders for their focus on increasing student academic performance," said Commissioner Stewart. "As we transition to new standards and assessments next year, I am confident students will continue to succeed."
- Broward County improved from 2013 in three of the seven assessment areas released today. Eighth graders went up one percentage point in science, while grades 3-5 increased by one percentage point in reading, as did grades 6-8.
- Miami-Dade County students showed improvement from 2013 in five of seven assessment areas. Grades 3-5 went up three percentage points in reading and two in math, and eighth graders increased by two percentage points in science.
- Okeechobee County improved from 2013 on four of the seven assessment areas. Students in grades 3-5 jumped seven percentage points in math and three in reading, while fifth grade science went up by three percentage points.
Overall, statewide student achievement improved in most of the assessment areas released today. Compared to last year, students improved in reading by one percentage point in grades 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10. In math, students improved by two percentage points in grade 4 and one percentage point in grades 5, 6 and 7. For science, students across the state improved two percentage points in grade 8 and one percentage point in grade 5.
Next year, a new assessment based on the Florida Standards will replace the FCAT 2.0. The Florida Standards for mathematics and English language arts stress a broader approach for student learning, including an increased emphasis on analytical thinking. With the new and more rigorous standards, a new assessment was needed to measure student progress.
Florida's recent academic gains have received national attention. The Sunshine State jumped from 11th to 6th in the nation for educational quality in 2013. Florida has the highest graduation rate in the nation for Hispanic students. In the past decade, the number of Florida graduates participating in AP courses has more than doubled, and the number of low-income graduates taking AP courses has increased tenfold. And Florida's graduation rate is 75.6% for 2012-13 - an increase of 1.1 percentage points over the prior year and up five percentage points since 2010-11.
The 2014 FCAT 2.0 Reading, Mathematics and Science results are available at 2014 Statewide Assessment Scores.

Relaxer Update | October 2014
the slackness that went on with my hair over the last few weeks of this relaxer stretch, everything went well. I did not do an official length check or flat iron with my hair, but if you watch the video, I do pull my hair down to show you where it is currently. An official length check will be coming at the end of the year, where I hope to be able to claim waist length hair.

Hair Update | October 2014
There's no doubt that my priorities have shifted since having a tiny human to take care of. These past few weeks, I have not been following my current hair regimen. Instead of my typical, pre-poo, shampoo, deep condition routine, I've been haphazardly co-washing my hair when I could find the time and moisturizing when I could not. And as much as I want to believe that doing that was enough, it really hasn't been. My hair has been looking and feeling rough for a while now, lol. Once I realized that I had allowed a full month of this foolishness to go on, I became determined to find the time to do a full wash day.

Black Opal Invisible Oil Blocking Loose Powder | Under-Eye Setting Powder
If you have dark circles and apply concealer and/or corrector to address that issues, then I'm sure that you are all too familiar with the dreaded under eye creasing. That area of the eye (especially on me) has fine lines that makeup loves to settle into creating little streaks of concentrated makeup under the eye (un-affectionately referred to as 'creasing'). There are a boat load of products that are marketed and promise "no creasing." But the reality is that where there are fine lines and wrinkles creasing is just inevitable. Of course, you want to use products that minimize it as much as possible, but nothing lasts forever.

Wash Day Chronicles | Spring 2014
Even when I can't blog, I make sure to keep up with my wash day routine. Waist Length by December 2014 is still my goal. So, I try not to go more than 2 weeks without squeezing in a wash day. And because of my Use up My Stash Personal Challenge, I've been experimenting with various combinations of products with each wash day. Below you'll find what I've been up to lately.

Could God Love You Less?Nov 07, 2011 Fuller Youth InstituteNow that my son is in fifth grade, I'm a volunteer in our church's Preteen Ministry. I am loving leading a small group of fifth grade girls every Sunday morning.We are working our way through the Old Testament and last week's topic was the Ten Commandments. Because of our Sticky Faith research, I wanted to make sure that I framed the Ten Commandments in light of God's incredible, unending love for us.So I asked the girls, "If we obeyed all of these all of the time, would God love us any more?" None of the ten girls (I know, it's pretty large for a small group; we're still recruiting more leaders) thought that obedience would make God love us more. So we talked for a minute or so about how God loves us unconditionally - no matter what.Then I asked the inverse question, "If we disobeyed one of these commandments and murdered someone, would God love us any less?" This time, four of the ten girls thought that murdering someone would make God love them less, even after we had just reflected on God's unconditional love.While this is far from a scientific study, it's interesting to me that the girls in my small group thought that their positive behaviors wouldn't increase God's love for them but that their negative behaviors would decrease God's love for them.Dave and I are really trying to communicate to our own kids that God and we love them - no matter what. When they score a goal, we tell them on the way home that we think it's great they tried so hard, but that even if they just ran in circles on the field and never touched the ball, neither God nor we would love them any less.I'm always looking for ways to communicate God's unconditional love to my own kids and the teenagers/preteens in our church. How have you tried to do that in your family or ministry?
Church as a Living BridgeNov 04, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
Today's guest blogger is Mike McClenahan, senior pastor of Solana Beach Presbyterian Church. Solana Beach was part of our 2010 Sticky Faith Cohort. This post originally appeared on Mike's blog, and is reprinted by permission.
Each week in worship we bless our children. First through sixth graders sit with parents or a trusted adult for the first 25 minutes of worship, then are dismissed with a pastoral blessing. We raise a hand or place a hand of blessing on "our" children as a way of physically extending ourselves to them.
Last Sunday we baptized an infant. The couple professed their own faith in Jesus and committed themselves to raise their daughter in an environment where she might one day profess her own faith in Jesus. The congregation likewise committed ourselves to come alongside the parents and the child. I've said before, "'Their' children become 'our' children."
We want to be a place where children see their parents and other adults worship God, serve the world, meet together and love each other. We want them to have an experience of the church in organized and organic ways. Our hope is that one generation would "commend the works of God to the next" (Psalm 145) as a living bridge that lasts beyond the oldest generation.
This video is a beautiful example of one generation passing on knowledge and wisdom to the next generation. What does our living bridge look like?
What keeps students from connecting with God?Nov 02, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
This week we're hosting a small group of folks helping us explore what it looks like to help teenagers develop faith rhythms that stick with them beyond our ministries and homes. Thanks to a generous donor, we have a grant supporting this exploration over the coming year.
One of the things we learned in our Sticky Faith research was that high school and college students don't tend to have very robust prayer lives. While we were not able to explore that very deeply, we did ask college students to share about some of the obstacles they faced in engaging faith practices. From their responses, here were some of the primary themes we heard:
- Time—making space for God in the midst of balancing other priorities and managing your own schedule is tough.
- Relationships—suddenly you don't know other Christians and have to decide if you're going to show up by yourself at a campus group or church. You also may not have accountability relationships with people who remind you to stay connected in your faith.
- God may begin to seem distant, uninvolved, or even irrelevant to college life.
When you think about (and ask) the college students you know what hinders them from connecting with God, what do you hear? And what can we do to support them in ways that keep them connected to God across the transition?
The Camping ChurchOct 31, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
Today's guest post is from Janice Ogoshi from Hawaii Kai United Church of Christ. Yep, they're in Hawaii. Someone has to do ministry there, you know.
Our church was at one time known as "The Camping Church." In the early years of our congregation, camps were a regular part of the life of the church. Five or six times a year, the church family would pitch tents and spend time together at a campsite near the beach.
Susan, one of the organizers of these campouts, explained the reason behind these frequent excursions to the beach. She told me that they wanted the children to develop relationships not only with their peers, but also with adults in the congregation. "We wanted our children to feel comfortable talking to adults. We knew that sometimes, teens can't or won't talk to their parents about things going on in their lives. But they might talk to 'Aunty' or 'Uncle' at church. Camp provided the opportunity for those relationships to be built."
This deliberate attempt to connect our children with the wider church family is bearing fruit as the children have grown into young adults. Some have gone away to college and returned, now to take on responsibilities in church. There are other churches in town that have large young adult ministries and have a worship style that is more appealing to twenty-somethings. But our young adults are returning in part because of the relationships they have with the older adults.
This is their church. And they are now becoming the mentors to the next generation.
Julie and Melissa lead the Hospitality Ministry Team. They are recruiting and training our greeters, making sure our guests feel welcomed on Sunday mornings. Aaron, Lauren and Julie are on the Music Ministry Team, leading singing during worship. Dean, Lauren, Melissa, Mandy and Aaron have taught Sunday School classes. Dean is currently serving as our church moderator.
Because we are not a large membership church, our activities have always been family-oriented and multi-generational. Camps, hikes, movie nights, service activities are all open to everyone. During these activities, the children and youth are exposed to the rich faith lives of the many adults in our congregation. It is not unusual to see the adults asking the youth how they are doing in school or on their sports teams or whether they have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Adults will often tell the youth that they are praying for them. Their interest in the lives of our children and youth show in their attentiveness and willingness to engage in conversations. While giving his testimony, one teen shared that he had a committee of church aunties and uncles who were ready to screen any potential girlfriends. Many other volunteers came forward to ask to serve on this committee!
While our camps are now held less frequently, the idea of building relationships among all the members of our church family across generations continues in the life of our church. It is not programmed, but rather a natural part of church life. God is using these relationships to enrich the faith of all our members.
Letter from a MomOct 27, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
We recently received this email from a mom of two teenagers, and with her permission decided to open-source the response from our blog readers. Here's her letter:
I am a mom of two teenagers, and am incredibly blessed to find them so willing to attend church, Sunday school as well as maintaining open communication about their walk with God. We have hit many rocky places and no doubt will face more, but they are actively exploring their faith.
In recent months, I have been discussing with my children about how youth group is going, and I am rather discouraged by what I hear from them. Both of them state, in one way or another, increasing frustration with a lack of intellectual interaction in their respective groups. They have good rapport with their leaders who all are very well-trained, yet they are reaching for conversation on a deeper level. In the words of one of my kids: "I get tired of hearing how we need to 'love on people'. I need to know deeper things."
Both have come to feel that Sunday school is a continual rehash of "feel good" faith and this concerns me deeply. My kids are starting to feel marginalized and "talked down to" for wanting more critical thinking in discussions about faith. I don't want to make this a critique on our student ministries but I am hoping you may have suggestions of how to address this issue. What do we do when the constructs in place are not moving young people forward?
At a loss,
Youth pastors and parents of teenagers, how do you respond? What insights do you have for this mom and her kids?
Talking to my own kids about faithOct 25, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
I recently heard a youth pastor say, vulnerably, "I'm great at talking to your kids about their faith; I stink at talking with my own kids about their faith." Another said, "I know how to be my son's mom. I don't know how to be his spiritual guide."
Painful words. Yet how many youth workers and other ministry leaders would echo them?
We have had more than one conversation recently with great, thoughtful youth workers who admit to really struggling with caring for the spiritual journeys of their own children. It turns out that what many of us are trained and well-seasoned to do with other adolescents (listen objectively, ask thoughtful questions, leave doors open for uncertainly and journey, care more about the process than last night's bad decision), we find awkward, painful, or nonexistent in our relationships with our kids. Of course, our kids need other adults to talk about faith with them in ways that sometimes we can't as parents. But perhaps too many of us stop there.
My own kids are still young (the oldest is nine), so I don't pretend to understand what this is like with teenagers in my own family. But these conversations have me wrestling even more with what it means to open doors all along the various stages of my kids' growth to talk about and listen for their (and my) faith journeys.
This is part of what makes me excited that Adam McLane offered to host a free Sticky Faith book club for parents who are in youth ministry. The Chapter 1 and 2 discussions have already been phenomenal; some of the comments are encouraging, others gut-wrenching. If this sounds like something you could use, it's not too late to jump in!
I'm also wondering what ideas and thoughts you have for others straddling the vocations of youth ministry and parenting. How do you talk about faith in your family, outside of your "job" at church? How do you pace with your own kids' spiritual journey without either ignoring or attemping to micromanage it?
From Me To YouOct 24, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
Today's guest post is from Josh Bishop and Jim Kast-Keat, pastors working with students at Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids. Mars Hill was part of our 2010 Sticky Faith Cohort. They are also hosting FYI's Kara Powell for a "Students Collaborative" conference in February.
"How was church today?"
If this were baseball, we would call this a swing-and-a-miss. While parents have the best of intentions to talk about their kids' experience at church and about their faith, they often don't know how to start the conversation and don't get much of a response when they try.
It is these good intentions combined with the utter importance of parents in faith development (found in the research from the Fuller Youth Institute, the National Study of Youth and Religion, and the Search Institute) that led us to realize that we had a Sticky Faith problem: Parents and their kids rarely had a shared faith experience that they could discuss together.
We narrowed our focus to our 5th and 6th grade students and their parents because this time of life is potentially one of the greatest—and probably one of the last—opportunities for parents and students to normalize discussions about faith. Fifth and sixth graders are old enough to begin engaging with abstract ideas about faith, yet young enough that they still want to talk with their parents about faith. Our programming separated 5th and 6th graders from their parents the moment they walked in the church door on Sundays, inhibiting any sort of discussion around a shared faith experience.
About a year ago, we decided to make a change. Fifth and sixth graders now join their parents for the entire Sunday worship service twice each month. They follow along with a resource we call "From Me To You", which guides students through the service, giving them creative and fun ways to interact with the songs, sermons, and other elements, and inviting them to talk with their parents about the shared faith experience. (It literally says "show this to your parents" or "ask your parents this" on every page.)
It's called "From Me to You" because we believe faith formation goes both ways: from child to parent and from parent to child. Instead of just asking what their child learned, the parents also share what they learned. As the Sticky Faith research points out, "The best discussions about faith happen when parents don't just ask questions, but also share their own experiences." 1
This type of programming doesn't always fit the conventional models of church, and helping everyone (students, parents, leadership, etc.) get a glimpse of the meaningfulness of this kind of thing hasn't been easy, but it's been worth it. It's rare to hit a homerun every time you're at bat, but our goal is simply to give families a base hit. Instead of being segregated when they walk in the door, families experience and talk about faith together. And that's a base hit if I ever saw one.

Growth PlansOct 20, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
Today's guest blogger is Matthew DePrez, Now Generation Pastor at Frontline Community Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Matthew is part of the 2011 Sticky Faith Cohort.
It wasn't until we were connected with the Fuller Youth Institute that we realized we may have been looking at student ministries all wrong!
For years, we had been looking at "success" in student ministries based upon the amount of students attending a weekly program night. As we wrestled through the statistics from FYI's research, we were compelled to see "success" from a new point of view. At Frontline, we believe that the "success" of our student ministry is based upon a student's faith retention after high school, rather than hundreds of students sitting in seats during a program.
This has caused us to shift our entire emphasis on programming and seek one-on-one mentoring relationships with adults and students rather than simply herding students into the doors of our building. As a result of our connection with FYI, we've also realized that true discipleship doesn't just happen on a program night, but everyday throughout the week. We've always said that individual students were more important than programs, but our actions weren't backing it up. This is why we instituted individual personal growth plans and student profiles for every student attending our program. Students (Christian or non-Christian) have the ability to prioritize the ways they want to grow spiritually throughout the year. It gives students a sense or personal ownership and they are able to proactively take steps closer to Jesus while building a relationship with their adult leader as they keep them accountable throughout the year.
Overall, through FYI and the Sticky Faith Cohort we've participated in this year, it has forced us to evaluate everything we do as a student ministry and ask if it is the most effective way to build faith retention in students. I believe it is the more important thing we've ever done as a student ministry.
A Rite to CommunityOct 18, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
Today's guest blogger is Jason Herman, High School Student Minister at The Hill Church of Christ in Richland Texas. Jason was part of the 2010 Sticky Faith Cohort.
Our typical promotion from 8th grade to high school has been filled with hype, loud music, and silly games. Having been a part of the Sticky Faith Cohort, and after reading this article, we knew that we could do better.
So the question turned from "how can we make promotion fun?" to "how can we turn this into a communal rite that will assist our 8th graders in transitioning from the world of middle school to that of high school?" I'd like to share one of many great stories that developed because of the changes we implemented. Some of the critical elements of our changes included various symbols and liturgy being experienced by adults and students of all ages, which brings me to John and Dustin.
John is the guy you see in the church directory and say, "now there's an interesting character." In ours, he's holding a violin. He's seventy years old, written two books, has taught Biblical Greek and he LOVES teenagers. John has played fiddle for Summer Spectacular (VBS on steroids), is one of our small group leaders, and he connected with Dustin during 9th grade promotion.
Dustin shared with John how he struggled with anger and that his family has called the police several times because of it. In that moment of mutual sharing, two members of the same body became vulnerable, became transparent, became one. It was in this moment, created by a simple rite of passage, that John simply looked Dustin in the eye and said, "the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." I was speechless.
What a Lit Candle Can Mean to StudentsOct 17, 2011 Fuller Youth Institute
A few months ago, I spent some time with some great folks from the United Methodist Conference in Tennessee, unpacking our Sticky Faith research. As is always the case when I get to rub shoulders with youth leaders, I came away both inspired and impressed.
One of the really great ideas I gleaned came from Julie, an experienced parent and youth leader. She mentioned that in the midst of Prom season, she takes time during youth group to light a candle and pray with students for the choices they will be making during Prom festivities. Not only does she do this at youth group, but she also takes the candle home and lights it on the night of her students' Proms. She lets it burn all night, and as she wakes up periodically in the middle of the night, that candle reminds her to pray for her students.
If that isn't cool enough, get this: her students KNOW she is lighting this candle and praying for them. How would you like to be a high school senior at Prom, knowing your youth leader is thinking about you?
Events like Prom and Homecoming give us as parents and leaders the chance to let our students know we are praying for them. In the midst of those windows when important decisions are made, how can you let kids you care about know that you are praying for them?

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- New York teenager Joseph Beer smoked marijuana, climbed into a Subaru Impreza with four friends and drove more than 100 mph before losing control. The car crashed into trees with such force that the vehicle split in half, killing his friends.
Beer, who was 17 in October 2012 when the crash occurred, pleaded guilty to aggravated vehicular homicide and was sentenced last week to 5 years to 15 years in prison.
As states liberalize their marijuana laws, public officials and safety advocates worry there will be more drivers high on pot and a big increase in traffic deaths. It's not clear, though, whether those concerns are merited. Researchers are divided on the question. A prosecutor blamed the Beer crash on "speed and weed," but a jury that heard expert testimony on marijuana's effects at his trial deadlocked on a homicide charge and other felonies related to whether the teenager was impaired by marijuana. Beer was convicted of manslaughter and reckless driving charges.
Studies of marijuana's effects show that the drug can slow decision-making, decrease peripheral vision and impede multitasking, all of which are important driving skills. But unlike with alcohol, drivers high on pot tend to be aware that they are impaired and try to compensate by driving slowly, avoiding risky actions such as passing other cars, and allowing extra room between vehicles.
On the other hand, combining marijuana with alcohol appears to eliminate the pot smoker's exaggerated caution and to increase driving impairment beyond the effects of either substance alone.
"We see the legalization of marijuana in Colorado and Washington as a wake-up call for all of us in highway safety," said Jonathan Adkins, executive director of the Governors Highway Safety Association, which represents state highway safety offices. "We don't know enough about the scope of marijuana-impaired driving to call it a big or small problem. But anytime a driver has their ability impaired, it is a problem."
Colorado and Washington are the only states that allow retail sales of marijuana for recreational use. Efforts to legalize recreational marijuana are underway in Alaska, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon and the District of Columbia. Twenty-three states and the nation's capital permit marijuana use for medical purposes.
It is illegal in all states to drive while impaired by marijuana.
Colorado, Washington and Montana have set an intoxication threshold of 5 parts per billion of THC, the psychoactive ingredient in pot, in the blood. A few other states have set intoxication thresholds, but most have not set a specific level. In Washington, there was a jump of nearly 25 percent in drivers testing positive for marijuana in 2013 -- the first full year after legalization -- but no corresponding increase in car accidents or fatalities.
Dr. Mehmet Sofuoglu, a Yale University Medical School expert on drug abuse who testified at Beer's trial, said studies of marijuana and crash risk are "highly inconclusive." Some studies show a two- or three-fold increase, while others show none, he said. Some studies even showed less risk if someone was marijuana-positive, he testified.
Teenage boys and young men are the most likely drivers to smoke pot and the most likely drivers to have an accident regardless of whether they're high, he said.
"Being a teenager, a male teenager, and being involved in reckless behavior could explain both at the same time -- not necessarily marijuana causing getting into accidents, but a general reckless behavior leading to both conditions at the same time," Sofuoglu told jurors.
In 2012, just over 10 percent of high school seniors said they had smoked pot before driving at least once in the prior two weeks, according to Monitoring the Future, an annual University of Michigan survey of 50,000 middle and high school students. Nearly twice as many male students as female students said they had smoked marijuana before driving.
A roadside survey by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 2007 found 8.6 percent of drivers tested positive for THC, but it's not possible to say how many were high at the time because drivers only were tested for the presence of drugs, not the amount.
A marijuana high generally peaks within a half-hour and dissipates within three hours, but THC can linger for days in the bodies of habitual smokers.
Inexperienced pot smokers are likely to be more impaired than habitual smokers, who develop a tolerance. Some studies show virtually no driving impairment in habitual smokers.
Two recent studies that used similar data to assess crash risk came to opposite conclusions.

Piper Lindsey Akin was named the new head coach of the Harrison County Fillies basketball program last Tuesday afternoon.
Akin, a 2004 graduate of Barren County High School and a 2008 graduate of Western Kentucky University, was selected over several candidates including former Harrison County basketball players Dennis Custard and Kim Furnish.
This will be Akin's first head coaching job as she served for one year at Apollo in Owensboro in the 2008-09 season as freshman and junior varsity coach as well as varsity assistant.
Harrison County boys' soccer coach Nick Hill wants to be optimistic about the upcoming soccer season for the Thorobreds soccer team.
He remembers though the past two years when hope sprang eternal only to be dashed by injuries and discipline problems.
Hill knows the discipline issues are behind him and hopes the injuries are too as he looks to this year's team and sees a core of good players returning.
Smith brothers score in
Bluegrass State Games
Recent Harrison County High School graduate Ross Smith and his brother Charlie won tennis medals at the Bluegrass State Games in Lexington over the weekend. Ross took first place in the 18 and under singles contests maintaining the form he used to be Harrison County's number one male singles player last year.
Brother Charlie, a junior at HCHS, and Ross took third in the doubles competition for the same age group.
HCHS dance team tryouts
Not counting the high school summer league schedule, baseball is wrapping up in Cynthiana.
The Little League, coach pitch and tee ball seasons are in the tournament stage so this week should wrap that up barring rain outs.
I want to make a few more observations before going on to other sports. I have paid more attention this year to the three above mentioned leagues than I have in many years.
The Harrison County 11-year-old all stars have been victorious in the three pool games they have played in the tournament at Anderson County.
They defeated the host Anderson County squad on Saturday 6-1 as Nathan Fryman pitched a masterful two hitter throwing only 84 pitches.
Jacob Honeycutt smashed a third-inning grand slam to provide all of the runs needed for the first-round victory.
Powell back Wednesday to defend
Burley Belle title
Cynthia Powell of Winchester will be at the Cynthiana Country Club beginning Wednesday to defend her Burley Belle title from last year.
Powell who is an 11-time winner will face tough competition as the usual top competitors will also be here to battle for the top spot of the championship flight.
Five-time winner Marsha Bordas, who has played in all of the previous Burley Belles, will compete along with three-time winner Laurie Goodlett and 13-time winner Anne Combs.
The Harrison County Middle School Track girls began the season with an indoor meet in Mason County and finished with several participants in the state meet on May 22 to complete a very productive and exciting year.
Twenty-one girls were involved with the team along with head coach Alicia Glenn, assistants Rhonda Miller, Deanna Lunsford, Lori Thomas and athletic director Bob Ruth.
For more on this story, see this week's Cynthiana Democrat.
The Harrison County Fillies, while battling their way to a sparkling 31-8 season record, established some state records along the way.
There were six areas where the team reached a milestone in the state record books, four areas where single game team records were met and six areas where an individual either tied or set a mark.
Many of the best golfers in central Kentucky will be in Cynthiana next week as the 42nd Annual Burley Belles Tournament takes place at the Cynthiana Country Club beginning Wednesday, June 30, and wrapping up on Thursday, July 1.
I know that I have mentioned in a previous article about the affect that parents and coaches have on youth while playing sports.
This affect can be both positive and, unfortunately, negative on the young players. This came to light for me again this weekend when I traveled out of Cynthiana to umpire some girls' softball.
I will tell you that now, perhaps more than ever, when people find out you are from Cynthiana they act like they think you may know more than you do about baseball and softball.

The leftist ecoNazis claim to be "helping the ecology" but actually are killing people all the time because of their interference with the most effective way of improving human life across the board - capitalism developing businesses, jobs and improving food supplies with technology (like DDT), public health and other advancements of technology and human development in cities which make life better, healthier and longer. These are best powered by coal, oil and nuclear power - which they oppose.Their eco-fantasy world of everyone living "in balance with nature" envisions a solar/wind powered home with some sort of magical eco-toilet and living off of veggies and maybe some goats or similar 3rd world subsistence lifestyle - without fertilizers or pesticides.The realities of these lifestyles are that they are often unhealthy and harsh, leading to disease - and crop yields are low, leading to starvation. Living in a relatively disease free society which was created by chemically wiping many disease vectors, and fed with food that is fertilized and protected with pesticides yet denying these tools (like DDT) to others is evil.

Until four or five years ago, my old grad school used to send out "newsletters" whose transparent purpose was to cadge donations from alumni. One such newsletter contained the commencement speech from some invited speaker - I forget his name - from some big-name school up in Yankeeland. The good professor was admonishing graduating Masters and PhD students to "get involved". The role models he advocated that they all emulate were professional charlatans Al Gore and Rachel Carlson. Needless to say, that was the end of any possibility that I was ever going to donate anything to them - and yet, such self-styled sages can´t understand why they´re held in such low esteem by people not part of their own cabal.

Tricky spawned EPA. With 9,000 pages of evidence and judicial ruling to the contrary, EPA Director W. Ruckleshaus banned DDT. The estimate of 50,000,000 dead is no great exaggeration.

ELIZABETHTOWN The Personnel Committee of the Essex County Board of Supervisors recently received its first bit of good news regarding election preparation. Personnel Officer Daniel Palmer informed the committee that the county had received certification for its software system. Essex County is the second in the state to receive the certification. Much of the work was done by county employees, with information services Mike Brenish and Luisa Towne doing the programming. The system was mandated by the Help America Vote Act (HAVA). Democratic Election Commissioner David Mace explained that the countys database is now synchronized with the states, and will be cross-referenced to avoid voter fraud. The good thing about this system is it does not have any duplicate voters in the system one voter, one vote, Republican Election Commissioner Lewis Sanders said. Mace said the state is supposed to go live with the system in the next 2-6 weeks. Many of the counties are paying to have vendors perform the service. Mace said that doing the work in-house saved about half of the cost. Palmer said the county is applying to be reimbursed $45,954 for the labor and cost invested in the project. Mace said the voter database was one part of the HAVA project. HAVA is an ongoing headache for election officials, since New York State is behind on the process, and has yet to certify an electronic machine. The state was sued last year by the federal government for its lack of compliance with HAVA. Clips from the County The Personnel Committee: Learned that efforts to have the County Department of Public Works contract for Horace Nye Nursing Home maintenance was moving forward. The Finance Committee Received a report from County Treasurer Michael Diskin. Sales tax revenues are up $228,000 so far this year, and occupancy tax rates are up $38,000. Discussed the countys current policies toward providing lunches for trainings and other events. The Audit Committee is expected to discuss possibly revising the countys rules. Supervisors voted during a Finance Committee meeting May 21 to oppose any move of North Country Community Colleges main campus out of Saranac Lake. Schroon Supervisor Cathy Moses, St. Armand Supervisor Joyce Morency, and North Hudson Supervisor Robert Dobie were absent, and North Elba Supervisor Shirley Seney abstained, resulting in the resolutions failure. Another attempt to reject the colleges proposal is expected to take place at the Ways and Means meeting on May 29.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- If you're a Wisconsin resident looking to file your taxes for a refund this year you may be asked to complete a four-question quiz to confirm your identity.
The state Department of Revenue is using the quiz for the first time this tax season as a way to fight against fraud.
If selected, the tax filer will receive a letter describing how to take the multiple choice quiz either over the phone or online. In some cases, the taxpayer will be asked to provide documentation to the Revenue Department to help verify their identity.
The quiz is one way the department is working to prevent identity theft and fraud. More information about the program is provided on the Wisconsin Revenue Department's website.

Hi: 7° Lo:1°
By IH Monday 17 December 2012 Updated: 18/12 13:11
DRUG drivers are as much a target for police in Warwickshire as drink drivers this Christmas.
Roadside checks have been stepped up since the start of the month in a bid to catch those who ignore the annual seasonal warning. Already over 70 drivers have been arrested in Warwickshire and West Mercia since December 1.
Over the past three years, seven people have lost their lives in Warwickshire, and a further 94 were seriously injured, following crashes as a direct result of drink or drugs.
Supt Lee Davenport of Warwickshire Police said: "Cracking down on those who take drugs or drink and then drive is a year round commitment.
"However, we are very aware the festive season can present opportunities where people are tempted to drive after taking drugs or drinking. Extra patrols will be conducted in the run up to and over Christmas and New Year, in a bid to tackle those who commit the unacceptable act of drinking or drug driving.
"Worryingly, and despite many warnings over the years about the dangers of drink/drug driving, there are still far too many reckless drivers ignoring the devastating consequences. We're urging people to think hard about the consequences that a collision could lead to."
Posters and beermats have been targeted at local pubs and clubs throughout the region designed to make people think about the consequences of drink or drug driving.
Vicki Bristow, of Warwickshire Safer Roads Partnership, said: "There are still people out there who feel they can gamble with drinking and driving and think they know how much the limit is but the simple fact is, there is only one way of being sure that you are safe to drive and that is not to drink at all.
"We would also ask people not to get into a car as a passenger if they suspect that the driver has been drinking or taking drugs. We realise that this can sometimes be difficult but would urge people to make the safe decision - it's not worth risking your life for."

Apple's request to have the sale of Samsung's devices banned in the US turned down in the latest twist in the two firm's legal battle.
The request came as part of the Samsung's appeal against a ruling in August that awarded Apple damages of $1bn.
In response to the appeal, Apple asked for infringing Samsung devices withdrawn from sales, claiming they hurt its sales.
However, judge Lucy Koh said there was little evidence sales had been impacted by the devices being available for sale.
"The phones at issue in this case contain a broad range of features, only a small fraction of which are covered by Apple's patents," she said according to numerous reports.
"Though Apple does have some interest in retaining certain features as exclusive to Apple it does not follow that entire products must be forever banned from the market because they incorporate, among their myriad features, a few narrow protected functions."
A spokesperson for Samsung said it welcomed the ruling.
"We are pleased that the judge today denied Apple's move to limit consumer choice, and restrict fair competition in the marketplace."
V3 contacted Apple for comment but had received no reply at the time of publication.
The near-endless legal battle between the warring firms has rumbled on throughout 2012 with courts around the world including the UK hearing cases between the two on issues of technical and design patents.
Apple notable lost a case in the UK that saw it forced to post apologise notices explaining Samsung had not infringed its patents. This led to the firm being dragged to court after its initial apology was deemed insufficient.
Dan Worth is the news editor for V3 having first joined the site as a reporter in November 2009. He specialises in a raft of areas including fixed and mobile telecoms, data protection, social media and government IT. Before joining V3 Dan covered communications technology, data handling and resilience in the emergency services sector on the BAPCO Journal.

Proof Lyrics - Coldplay
Review The Song (2)
So I waited for you
What wouldn't I do?
And I'm covered, it's true
I'm covered in you
If I ever want proof
I find it in you
Yeah I honestly do
In you I find proof
Light and dark
A bright spark
Light and dark
And then, light
So I waited all day
What wouldn't I say?
And are there things in your way?
Things happen that way
And if I ever want proof
Then I find it in you
Yeah I honestly do
In you I find proof
Light and dark
A bright spark
Light and dark
And then, light

Colleges and universities across the nation have mission statements and values statements. At Manchester and many other schools, these statements reflect our heritage and continually guide us. They aren't just words on a poster. Instead, they sit on my desktop, and every time I look at my computer screen, those values look back at me.
As the government shutdown continues, I am struck with the ways that our political leaders might benefit from a review of the values of the university where I work.
Our statement lifts up six values that would, if applied by our leaders in Washington, end the government shutdown and prompt genuine listening.
Learning, to equip our graduates to live productive and principled lives
Faith, because diverse faiths call us to establish justice and build peace amid strife
Service, to connect faith with action and abilities with convictions
Integrity, because honesty and trust are the foundations of enduring relationships and strong communities
Diversity, because understanding differences develops respect for differences and appreciation for the infinite worth of every person
Community, to sharpen self-identify, promote responsible citizenship and transform conflict into mutual respect
As I look at the Manchester University values statement, I know that scores like it at other colleges and universities also emphasize respect, justice and transformation of conflict into mutual respect. Members of Congress have much to remember of what they were taught at the colleges and universities they attended.
The people of this nation deserve more than a government shutdown. We deserve representatives who hold strong principles and who also listen and compromise for the good of the whole. We deserve representatives who respect their opponents even when they disagree. George Washington did that. Abraham Lincoln did that. Dwight Eisenhower and Jimmy Carter did that.
If we believe there are better resolutions to problems than line-in-the-sand government closing, we also have the responsibility to let our representatives know what we believe. And we need to do it today.
