State representative Craig Fry says he will not run for Mayor of Mishawaka.
According to a news release from Fry, polling had indicated he would easily win the primary and beat incumbent Jeff Rea in November.
However, after careful consideration, Fry took his name out of the race.
He says he understands a race of that magnitude requires lots of negative attacks and, he was not ready to put his family or the Rea family through that kind of campaign.

HIALEAH, Fla. (AP) - Police have arrested a Florida man for allegedly stabbing his estranged wife to death in front of his two children.
Authorities say 41-year-old Alfonso Lopez de Queralta stabbed Yulianela Silva Torres in her home just before 6 a.m. Monday. Police say he also stabbed himself during the incident and was taken to the hospital.
Television station NBC 6 South Florida (http://bit.ly/18Lczom) reports that the suspect now faces charges of first-degree murder and burglary with assault or battery.
The couple had been separated. Torres had a permanent domestic violence injunction against her husband.
Neighbor Dainerys Rodriguez told NBC 6 she heard the children screaming, and quote, "all of a sudden there was like a silence." The children are now in the custody of the Department of Children and Families.

Nothing spoils the experience of antique shopping quite like modern surroundings. You just can't get a good feel for aged thingamajigs, knick-knacks and what-nots in a quick-assembled, nondescript structure from 1980-something you need to be in an old place, a place that feels like an antique itself. And that's where nearby Maeystown, Illinois, comes in. This entire town is on the National Register of Historic Places, and it's holding its annual Fruehlingsfest Antique & Garden Show today from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Browse the goods for sale courtesy of the more than 40 regional dealers, check out the nineteenth-century structures that are part of this German town, and fest it up with kettle corn, funnel cakes, potato pancakes, bratwurst, wine and strawberry shortcake.

Can I write?
I always loved writers work and "journalism" in general but "Can I write? How can they write?" was my question and sometimes I think "Is being a journalist an impossible mission?" finally I got a source World Pulse Voices of Our Future an online training course sounded interesting and best opportunity to me for those who want to become a journalist and get enough information.
I had already finished teaching in a training course of English language in one of the local Kurdish NGOs in Kurdistan Region - Iraq which works for promoting and developing society in Kurdistan Region, So I usually do surf the net for all kind of news and check my email daily but at that time exactly I was looking for a job in news papers and internet reading job vacancies in companies and NGOs in Erbil city. While I was looking at job vacancies I saw an advertisement saying there is an "online journalism training course for women" for those who are interested can apply online through a link which was given.
Clicking on the link for the first time I saw World Pulse website with their slogan Voices of Our Future. I looked at the home page read some stories and news about women from different parts of the world talking about their lives, experiences and problems they are suffering from. Then I continued reading until I reached the part how to apply to become a member and register to go through application and selection process. After registration and application, it was very exciting to open the conversation by talking about your personal hero and it was more exciting to know that many of the heroes were Mothers. So I find myself very lucky to be among those active motivated women online who struggle and work hard for women and empowerment it was something I never expected to see in this training course.
I beleive you can. Everyone counts. Just beleive in yourself and look within you. You will be suprised at the amazing words you already have written on the tablet of your heart. You are the voice. So you can..
Welcome on board
Beejay Fabamise, Nigeria
Your thought are your words
Ianja, as long as you have strength in your body and thoughts are running through your mind then yes you can write. That is why I always say the power of the Pulse lies in the lived experiences of the women writers. Say it as you see it, as you feel it as you think it.
Yes you can write!
Never doubt it and never stop! It is wonderful to hear your voice from Erbil. I have dear, dear friends living there. I'd love to introduce you! I've invited my friend to join World Pulse but so far she has not. Maybe you could convince her? I'll ask her if I can share her email with you! What do you think?
I agree, you can write.
I agree, you can write. Everyone has a voice and a unique story worth sharing. Believe in the importance of yours.
It's not whether you can, but whether you should.
Dear Lanja,
It's not just that you can write, but also that you *must*! It is thanks to women like you, that we hear about the struggles of our sisters in other parts of the world. Continue on with this journey and let your voice soar!

-- As noted late night here on the website, the WWE SmackDown tapings on Tuesday night in Dayton, OH had a terrible live gate. There were several areas of the arena tarped off and the company was offering a buy one get one free ticket promotion to help bring fans into the show. They will do a great job with post-show editing to make the arena look full when the show airs tomorrow night but it was downright bad. As noted, there were people questioning why WWE chose to hold a TV taping in the city when RAW drew a bad live gate when they were there several months ago. We don't have an attendance figure just yet but it appeared to be less than 3500 people.

Stafford students keep weekends
MORE: Read more Stafford County news
Park Ridge Elementary School student Nya Harris made it clear Tuesday night that she didn't want to go to school on Saturdays or during spring break.
"Saturdays should not be taken from us because those should be our days to kick back and relax," Nya said to applause from the audience at Tuesday evening's meeting of the Stafford School Board.
The school officials had to decide how to make up more than 16 days' worth of instructional time lost to this winter's cold and snowy days.
Several parents and teachers also spoke out against rumored plans to have students attend school on Saturdays or during spring break. A few also asked the board members to disregard plans to lengthen the school day by 20 minutes.
School officials worried they wouldn't be able to find a plan that would make everyone happy—but they ended up getting applause when they voted on how to make up the snow days.
Students won't have to attend school on Saturdays or during spring break. Nor will they stay in the classroom an extra 20 minutes for the rest of the school year.
Instead, the School Board voted to eliminate a teacher work day on April 4 and to make April 18 and May 23 full days instead of half days as originally scheduled. Elementary school students would also attend full school days on June 11 and 12, which were originally early release days for all students. Those days will remain early release days for middle school and high school students, who will take exams those days. June 13 will remain the last day of school and an early release day.
This option was available because the Stafford school day is already 20 minutes longer than state recommendations, said Rick Fitzgerald, director of human resources. Because of this, the school division had banked time to put toward makeup days.
While the vote drew applause, one School Board member joked that he was disappointed not to add Saturday school sessions.
"I was kind of looking forward to getting my kids out of the house on Saturdays," Scott Hirons said.
The School Board meeting began while temperatures were in the 70s, but a frigid forecast is still in the future before spring arrives. If school is canceled for inclement weather again, the last day of school would most likely be moved to June 16 or 17.
But Fitzgerald hopes the inclement weather team wouldn't be needed for the rest of the year.
"The phrase wintry mix, if I never hear that again, I'll be a very happy man," he said.
Spotsylvania County's School Board voted Monday to lengthen students' school days to make up for instructional time lost to the weather. Those longer days will start March 17, and the elementary school day would end at 3:50 p.m., middle school at 3:10 p.m. and high school at 2:45 p.m.

Economics: From the Dismal Science to the Moral Science: The Moral Economics of Kendall P. Cochran
Date: January 2015
Creator: Dadres, Susan McHargue
Description: Adam Smith published The Theory of Moral Sentiments in 1759 and established the ethical foundation for The Wealth of Nations (1776) as well as the important role played by custom and fashion in shaping behaviors and outcomes. Kendall P. Cochran believed in Smith's emphasis on value-driven analysis and seeking solutions to major problems of the day. Cochran believed that economists moved too far in the direction of analysis free of words like ought and should and devoted his career to establishing that economics is a moral science. A recent study by two Harvard professors, Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff, Growth in a Time of Debt (2010), asserted that healthy economic growth and high levels of government debt are incompatible. These conclusions are associated with the austerity movement, which calls for policymakers to reduce government spending in order to reduce the government's debt and improve long-term growth prospects. The austerity movement has been used to justify the sharp decline in public sector employment that has restrained job growth since the recession of 2007. In 2013, a graduate student named Thomas Herndon discovered an error in the calculations of Reinhart and Rogoff, publishing his findings in a paper co-authored by his professors, ...

Guidance Documents for Lifecycle Management of ETDs
Date: March 19, 2014
Creator: Alemneh, Daniel Gelaw; Donovan, Bill; Halbert, Martin; Han, Yan; Henry, Geneva; Hswe, Patricia et al.
Description: In 2011, a research team led by the University of North Texas, the Educopia Institute/MetaArchive Cooperative, and the worldwide Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD), began studying the production, dissemination, and preservation of Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs). The original intent was to develop and disseminate documentation for academic libraries that would help curators better understand and address the preservation challenges presented by these new digital collections. As researchers from the libraries of University of North Texas, Virginia Tech, Rice University, Boston College, Indiana State University, Penn State, and the University of Arizona began to grapple with ETD lifecycle management issues, they quickly realized that librarians were but one of many academic stakeholder groups that work collaboratively to produce and maintain ETD collections. Studying the library role in isolation was neither feasible nor helpful. The scope of our work increased to encompass the roles and responsibilities of core stakeholders in the ETD lifecycle: students, faculty, administrators, technologists, commercial vendors, and librarians. The resulting Guidance Documents address areas of interest to ETD program planners, managers, and curators. They will help this extended set of stakeholders understand, document, and address the administrative, legal, and technical challenges presented by ETDs—from submission ...

Guidelines for Digital Newspaper Preservation Readiness
Date: March 4, 2014
Creator: Skinner, Katherine & Schultz, Matt
Description: The Guidelines for Digital Newspaper Preservation Readiness address a specific set of preservation challenges faced by libraries, archives, historical societies, and other organizations that curate substantial collections of digital newspaper content. The Guidelines are intended to inform curators and collection managers at libraries, archives, historical societies, and other such memory organizations about various practical readiness activities that they can take.

Does Every Research Library Need a Digital Humanities Center?
Date: February 2014
Creator: Schaffner, Jennifer & Erway, Ricky
Description: The essay discusses specific concerns of digital humanists in hopes of bridging the gap between how library directors and digital humanities researchers think. It suggests many ways to respond to the needs of digital humanists, and creating a Digital Humanities center is appropriate in relatively few circumstances. The essay recommends that a "Digital Humanities-friendly" environment may be more effective than a Digital Humanities Center but that library culture may need to evolve in order for librarians to be seen as effective Digital Humanities partners. The authors conclude that what we call "The Digital Humanities" today will soon be considered "The Humanities." Supporting Digital Humanities scholarship is not much different than supporting digital scholarship in any discipline. Increasingly, digital scholarship is simply scholarship.

Participatory Design in Academic Libraries: New Reports and Findings
Date: February 2014
Creator: Council on Library and Information Resources
Description: This report looks at how staff at eight academic institutions gained new insight about how students and faculty use their libraries, and how the staff are using these findings to improve library technologies, space, and services. Participatory design is a relatively recent approach to understanding library user behavior. It is based on techniques used in anthropological and ethnographic observation. The report is based on a series of presentations at the second CLIR Seminar on Participatory Design of Academic Libraries, held at the University of Rochester's River Campus June 5-7, 2013. Chapters focus on projects at the University of Colorado, Boulder; Colby College; University of Connecticut; Columbia University; Rush University Medical Center; Purdue University; Northwestern University; and the University of Rochester. David Lindahl, of the University of Missouri-Kansas City, provided the keynote.

Vann Victorian Collection: An Exhibit at UNT Libraries Special Collections
Date: 2014
Creator: Vann, J. Don (Jerry Don), 1938-
Description: The Vann Victorian Collection is a treasure of the University of North Texas Libraries and an exceptional resource for the study of Victorian literature. This exhibit showcases some pieces from the collection, including rare first editions, part-issue editions, and association copies. Dr. J. Don Vann, Professor Emeritus at UNT, curated this exhibit. Don and Dolores Vann began collecting Victorian books in 1962, when they acquired a first edition of Dickens's Bleak House. They spent the summer of 1965 in London, conducting research in the British Library and buying first editions of works by Charles Dickens and William Makepeace Thackeray. During their subsequent trips to London, the Vanns came to know many of the city's booksellers and were offered first editions they kept hidden from all but their most favorite customers. In 2004 Don and Dolores established the Vann Victorian Endowment to provide a permanent fund to purchase Victorian books for the Vann Victorian Collection in Special Collections at the University of North Texas Libraries. Since 2004 the Vanns have made additional contributions to the collection, most recently in 2014.

Research Data Management Principles, Practices, and Prospects
Date: November 2013
Creator: Asher, Andrew; Deards, Kiyomi; Esteva, Maria; Halbert, Martin; Jahnke, Lori; Jordan, Chris et al.
Description: This report examines how research institutions are responding to data management requirements of the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, and other federal agencies. It also considers what role, if any, academic libraries and the library and information science profession should have in supporting researchers' data management needs. University of North Texas (UNT) Library Director Martin Halbert opens the report with an overview of the DataRes Project, a two-year investigation of data management practices conducted at UNT with colleagues Spencer D. C. Keralis, Shannon Stark, and William E. Moen. His introduction is followed by a series of papers that were presented at the DataRes Symposium that UNT organized in December 2012.

Searching for Sustainability: Strategies from Eight Digitized Special Collections
Date: November 2013
Creator: Maron, Nancy & Pickle, Sarah
Description: This report aims to address one of the biggest challenges facing libraries and cultural heritage organizations: how to move their special collections into the 21st century through digitization while developing successful strategies to make sure those collections remain accessible and relevant over time. Through a cooperative agreement as part of the National Leadership Grants Program, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) funded the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), in partnership with Ithaka S+R, to undertake in-depth case studies of institutions that have worked to build the audience, infrastructure, and funding models necessary to maintain and grow their digital collections. The eight collections profiled provide useful models and examples of good practice for project leaders to consider when digitizing their own materials. We hope that these case studies will encourage greater discussion among individuals in the academic library and cultural heritage communities about the reasons why they invest so much time and energy in the creation and ongoing management of their digitized special collections, the goals they set for them, and the planning needed to realize those aims. These questions become even more pressing in an environment where the traditional sources of funding for digitization are beginning to wane. ...

Born Digital: Guidance for Donors, Dealers, and Archival Repositories
Date: October 2013
Creator: Redwine, Gabriela; Barnard, Megan; Donovan, Kate; Farr, Erika; Forstrom, Michael; Hansen, Will et al.
Description: The report provides recommendations to help ensure the physical and intellectual well-being of materials created and managed in digital form ("born digital") that are transferred from donors to archival repositories. The report is presented in four sections, each of which provides an overview of a key area of concern: initial collection review, privacy and intellectual property, key stages in acquiring digital materials, and post-acquisition review by the repository. Each section concludes with two lists of recommendations: one for donors and dealers, and a second for repository staff. Appendixes provide more specific information about possible staffing activities, as well as a list of resources and ready-to-use checklists that incorporate recommendations from throughout the report. Ten archivists and curators from institutions in the United States and United Kingdom collaborated on the report.

Congratulations to Jackson EMC for returning $4.75 million to its customers. Hoorah, hoorah, for private enterprise.
I've enjoyed seeing the deer for nine years in the Riverside Drive area after moving there in 2002. Even this morning, the first thing I saw looking out into my front yard was a mother and her baby deer. So enjoyable to see!
I seek to present another view to the column by Kathleen Parker in Sunday's Times. She sought to present a condemnation of capital punishment using the recent execution of Troy Davis as her evidence. There are strong points to be made on both sides of his case but I seek to bring light, not just heat, to the larger issue upon which the logic she presents fails completely.
Remember that real estate is local. While national, state, or even some local news may sound challenging, people need to be plugged in to what is actually happening in your neighborhood.
With the closure of the South Hall tag office, Hall County residents needing to visit the office must go to downtown Gainesville and struggle with limited parking issues.
Regrettably I missed the recent public meeting for the transportation sales tax initiative. Officials say these road and bridge projects could be financed by increasing the sales tax. Adding this 1 percent to the existing sales tax base of 7 percent would increase the tax burden to 8 percent. That is just too much of a premium to pay government over the normal selling price of any commodity, especially food and clothing.
I believe that Debbie Taylor would likely change her thoughts on deer in her neighborhood (and mine; I saw nine deer on or by the roads in three days a while ago) should she or one of her family or friends run into a deer on the road.
What a shame that mankind can't enjoy the beauty of wildlife. Bow hunting or not, most hunters aren't good enough with bows to actually kill a deer. The deer most often is seriously injured and suffers or has its throat slit.
A recent Times article stated that Georgia Lottery sales are boosted by many who don't use lottery-funded educational programs, including Georgia's lower income residents, its uneducated and its minorities. However, research clearly shows that Georgia Lottery players are representative of the general population.
Tom Oliver wants to reopen tag sites and fund next year by increasing property taxes. It seems more logical and equitable that some sort of vehicle tax be increased by those who are using tag offices.
President Barack Obama pushed upon the country his latest "jobs bill." Then he demanded it be passed. His words weren't a direct demand, but when you say it enough times it is implied.
I read with enthusiasm the recent article regarding the upcoming effort to thin the deer population within the Gainesville city limits. However, I shook my head in disbelief that unnamed officials from the Department of Natural Resources cannot go so far as to say the deer population in Gainesville is above normal.
Who is informing you that the residents of Riverside Drive find the deer a problem and want them inhumanely killed? As a family living on Riverside, we find it offensive that we have been grouped with this minority.
Municipal bonds are bonds issued by city and county governments. Bondholders receive interest from the issuers, which is excluded from income by the federal government. Moreover, if a resident of Georgia owns bonds issued by a Georgia city, such as Gainesville, the interest income is excluded for state purposes, too.
I am in my 70s and have never been more concerned for this country than now.
This time of year we begin hearing about the "War on Christmas," as the nonreligious seek to enforce the constitutional separation between church and state. Others talk about a "War on Thanksgiving" as early shopping begins to infringe on family time and Thanksgiving time. But there's another war far more displeasing to God, at least according to Jesus.
Many thanks should be extended to all the local restaurants who provided free dinners to veterans on Veterans Day. Such a positive, supportive attitude only serves to strengthen the community and the country. A week later, I was impressed to see a restaurant in Buford extend the honor by providing literally hundreds of free dinners to local veterans.
This is in response to Joan King's recent attempt to display her superior wisdom. I thought her forte was climate change, but now she's scolding us all for not embracing President Barack Obama's nightmare health care plan. Where's she been this past year?
Reply to Clarence Lusane column of Nov. 11: He is correct when he says the election was not a mandate for a Republican agenda. I disagree that it happened because of a "pervasive anti-Obama drumbeat" or "incessant Republican pounding." It happened because the American people are mad.
According to President Barack Obama, the citizens of the United States are not exceptional. Also, he claims we are no better than any other country on this planet.
I have a 16-acre sheep farm on Coker Road. One recent evening, a 16-year-old boy hit my fence driving 80 mph, as he told police. He and his friend, who was also 16, were going home from East Hall High School.
On Nov. 10, three men, one of them a Hall County Sheriff's deputy, were injured in a crash at Spout Springs Road and Union Circle. Thankfully none of the men suffered anything worse than a minor injury. But anyone driving in this area with any regularity knows how dangerous this intersection can be. The fact that there are not more accidents at this intersection is astounding.
In her recent letter, Mary Young seems to refer to the 9-11 attacks during the Bush administration as if they constitute a justification for the war in Iraq. Neither Saddam nor Iraq was involved in those attacks. She also attempts to justify the war by pointing to past history, including Saddam's use of gas against Iraqi Kurds. The U.S. sold Saddam that gas. I have to wonder, who does she think the U.S. intended the gas to be used on? As suppliers of WMD, we are complicit in that crime.
President Barack Obama left his domestic woes behind to take a foreign policy trip to China this week. He met with the leader of China in a private meeting to talk about Chinese-U.S. relations and trade policies. The American press was allowed total access to the meeting and to take photographs of the occasion. It was interesting to see pictures of the world's most powerful dictator standing next to some Chinese guy.
Family is the most important organization in time (on this earth) or in eternity. God Himself organized the first family on earth. He created all of us as His spiritual children and thus His spiritual family. Family is very important to Him. "What God hath joined together, let not man put asunder."

State bracing for ice storm
"It's certainly going to be some nasty weather. There could be significant ice accumulations, dangerous driving conditions and power outages," said Steve Capriola, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Gray, Maine.
Gov. Maggie Hassan also announced Friday that the state's Emergency Operations Center would open to handle the storm.
Northern and central areas could see ice accumulations of up to a half-inch or even more, Capriola said.
The southern extent of the icing was still not clear Friday night. Capriola said southern New Hampshire will likely see more rain than freezing rain.
Manchester-Boston Regional Airport is allowing its parking lot to serve as a primary staging area to receive and deploy the additional crews.
"Ice is really public enemy No. 1 when it comes to power outages," said company spokesman Seth Wheeler.
The company also made sure that it has enough fuses and other supplies needed during a restoration.
Hampton-based Unitil, which also serves customers in the Concord area, has also reached out to third party contractors and secured 70 tree and bucket crews and an additional 50 "wires down and damage assessment support staff" to provide assistance. It will also open its regional emergency operations center in Concord Sunday morning, according to Unitil media relations manager Alec O'Meara said.
"That's one of the things we always have to cope with, the weather in New Hampshire, but we're also very fortunate that we have a proactive Department of Transportation that does an excellent job on our roads," said Janice Crawford, executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce.
Fortunately, with Christmas only a few days away, Crawford said the busiest shopping period is over.
The storm may prompt some people who visit their second homes or other getaway places in the area this weekend to decide to stay through Christmas, she said.
