Members of the Obadiah Mississippi Homemaker Volunteers were provided tips on nutrition and fitness at the club's April meeting.
Club vice president Nancy Cook advised the following on nutrition:
• Keep your metabolism in check and working at it's highest potential. Healthy eating = don't starve yourself.
• Eat a good breakfast. After a good night's sleep, your body is trying to conserve energy. Try to avoid sugary or fatty foods for your first meal so your body can spend energy instead of generating fat.
• Eat two more meals, a sensible lunch and supper.
• Avoid snacking as this will lower metabolism and cause the body to store fat instead of burning it.
• Eat healthy foods – you can make a difference if only 30 percent of the calories come from fat.
Cook also advised members to exercise.
"Just move it! Physical activity increases your metabolism," she said. "By exercising more muscle you will burn more energy. After exercising 30 minutes daily, your body will begin to burn stored fat for energy."
Walking, gardening, bowling and lite or heavy house work were recommended by Cook as ways to keep moving.
During the business session, the minutes, roll call and recycle count was conducted by Robin Doerner, secretary. Georgia Snowden, treasurer, presented the financial report.
Club president Caroline Wilson thanked everyone for attending the council meeting, which the club hosted. Sixteen members and two guests attended. Cultural arts was well represented by Obadiah MHV, with three club members crafts going to the Mississippi State council competition: an afghan by Lyda Tingle; a recycle item {plastic bag mat for the homeless} by Elouise Ethridge; and a patriotic bead mat and needlepoint note pad cover by Caroline Wilson.
The next call council meeting will be the Legislative Luncheon on May 31 at 11:30 a.m at the East Mississippi Electric Power Association (EMEPA) auditorium. All elected officials are encouraged to attend.
Rae Clarke was welcomed as a new member.
Nancy Cook and Lou Limerick reported on the cookie decoration for children at The Threefoot Arts Festival.
After the pledge to the flag, refreshments were served by hostesses Elaine Herber and Elouise Ethridge.
The next meeting of the Obadiah MHV will be June 3 at 7 p.m. in the Center Hill Community Center on Gum Log Road in Bailey. Hostesses will be Caroline Wilson and Lyda Tingle.
• Report submitted by Elouise Ethridge.

The massive Millennial Impact Report 2012 released by Achieve, a company specializing in fundraising for charitable causes, is important not so much for what it tells us about how Millennials act today, but for the habits that they will carry into their future life stages.
The report also brings home just how important this huge generation is to the nonprofit world and its charitable causes. The Millennials will affect everything we do from fundraising to volunteering to how we use social media.
What's surprising and what's not
We know, for instance, that Millennials prefer to give online (70%). We might not have realized that they do so not because they won't read your direct mail appeals, but because they probably don't even buy stamps anymore, and they probably don't remember where their checkbooks are even if they still have them. They are not going to grow out of those habits.
It's surprising to find out that Millennials are not that into text-to-give donating (only 15% have), even though that was apparently the biggest hot thing just two years ago. We might not have realized that they find it confusing and too much effort, and they don't completely trust that way of donating.
We thought apps on mobile devices were the way to go just recently. Turns out they are not. Millennials prefer (65% of them) to learn about you on your website, often on their smartphones (77% have them). But they don't want you to text them or phone them on their smartphones. But, nonprofits need to make their websites smartphone friendly or impatient Millennials will go somewhere else. The first thing Millennials look at when they get to your website is your "About Us" page (88% do this). Of social networks, Facebook is the winner (67% have checked out nonprofits there) but Millennials don't often donate through Facebook (only 3% had).
We know that 75% of Millennials donated to charity in 2011, but they gave smaller amounts...under $100 (58%). They are generous souls, though, and are quite willing to fundraise for you (71% have) by tapping their family and friends. Plus they volunteer (63% have and 41% plan to do more). Millennials, especially those just out of college, are worried about their student debt, are feeling lost in a sea of job seekers in a down job market, and may be underemployed. Small donations might turn into bigger ones later so don't turn up your nose at them.
Millennials like to be inspired and often act in the moment of that inspiration (42% did this). Their pet peeve is not knowing how their gift will make a difference. Messages must be strong, clear, inspirational, and, more often than not, visual.
Why the future is more important than what Millennials are doing right now
Although there is controversy about how to define the demographics of the Millennial generation, they are a huge group, somewhere between 80 and 90 million. Compare that to 76 million Baby Boomers.
Millennials will be the driving force behind cultural change for a long time to come. So why not try to understand them and plan for them? Start with the Achieve study. It is a bonanza of statistics and examples of how numerous nonprofits are already changing their ways to appeal to this generation.
Download the report and give it a serious read. It's very well done and laid out in a way that is quite accessible.

|springer spaniel
|either of two breeds of large quick-moving spaniels bred to spring game, having a slightly domed head and ears of medium length. The English springer spaniel is the larger and can be of various colours; the Welsh springer spaniel is always a rich red and white
springer spaniel
either of two ancient breeds of sporting dogs used to flush game from cover and to retrieve it. The English springer spaniel is a medium-sized, compact dog standing 19 to 20 inches (48 to 51 cm) and weighing 40 to 50 pounds (18 to 23 kg). Its glossy coat is flat or wavy and usually black and white or liver-coloured and white. The English springer spaniel is valued both as a companion and for its use in the field as a pheasant hunter. The Welsh springer spaniel, known since at least the 14th century, is somewhat smaller than the English; its flat coat is always red-brown and white, with feathering on the chest, legs, and belly. It stands 17 to 19 inches (43 to 48 cm). It is noted as both a pet and a tireless, capable hunting dog and retriever.

It's a meat lover's heaven, and they're famous for their lamb (surprise, surprise) imported directly from Inner Mongolia. Soup base options are spicy (filled with dried chilies and seriously, seriously spicy), non-spicy, or half and half; and all are purportedly laden with dozens of Chinese medical restorative ingredients. You can go for the all-you-can-eat buffet, with a two-hour eating limit, but if you so happen to visit this TST branch, bear in mind that the menu there only comes in Chinese.

The Commerce Journal
High nitrite levels from a Commerce pump station have resulted in the pump being shut down for further testing and a warning from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the city of Commerce on the dangers the water presents to young infants.
"High nitrite levels is something you run into in rural areas," Commerce Utilities Director Bryan Creed said. "We're working on it and we've contained the source of the problem."
While the levels do not affect most users, infants under sixth months who drink the water can develop what is commonly called Blue Baby Syndrome which could result in serious illness and, if untreated, death.
According to TCEQ, boiling the water is not effective in reducing the level of nitrites. The TCEQ recommends that children under six months of age, as well as pregnant women, use alternative sources of water for drinking and cooking. At this time, according to TCEQ, the health effects to fetuses of pregnant women are unclear. Creed said that Commerce's water levels were below maximum contaminant levels (MCL) for nitrites three months ago.
"We have five wells in the pump station, so we're going to pull samples of our own to determine where the nitrates are coming from," he said. "If we can rectify the situation, we'll put the well back on line. If we can't, we'll have to abandon the source."
Abandoning the well would be a significant cost to the city.
"It would be a blow for us to abandon an asset and would probably cost us millions to replace," Creed said.
While the pump station has been shut down, there is still some of the affected water in the water system, something Creed says the city will rectify by flushing the system.
"We'll test the wells one at a time to find the source," he said. "It will probably take 2-3 weeks for us to get concrete knowledge of the situation. I seriously doubt we'll lose capacity in all of our wells, but we might lose one."
Nitrites are used in fertilization, Creed said, which can explain their presence in rural areas. According to Creed, if Commerce residents notice that their water tastes differently, it is because they are now drinking water from the service station instead of groundwater from the wells. There is no information that suggests that high levels of nitrites affect pets.
The results were part of routine testing mandated by the state but paid for by local cities.

Daughter of Erwin C. Orr and Dollie A. Nugent from Hot Springs County, Arkansas. Born and raised in California. Married in 1958, one son.
Some of my earliest memories are of accompanying my Dad to clean the family graves in the Wilmington Cemetery and in the Arkansas cemeteries whenever we were there for a visit. We were taught to act with respect and reverence for those who were buried in those cemeteries whether we knew them or not. Now many of our family and old friends have passed on, but the memory of them is still here living in me. People who I loved and respected.

Every year I resolve to be a good citizen. Every year Piano Player laughs, "We'll see how long that lasts."
By "good citizen" I mean that when I get into the car, I will not crawl up another car's bumper just to keep eight other vehicles from cutting me off on Laurel Canyon Boulevard.
I will not look longingly at my middle finger when someone who has used the right-turn-only lane up near Mulholland to beat the traffic, suddenly wedges in a right angle in front of me as I'm creeping along in the left lane.
I will not flinch every time I try to turn right into my driveway and someone lays on their car horn.
I will refrain from spewing expletives at dog owners who let their pets run off the leash around the corner 20 feet ahead of them; and when they catch up to their pet—now with teeth bared—only to say, as I'm nearly apoplectic, "my dog's friendly."
I will bite my tongue the next time some tall stranger steps up behind me at the ATM and sneezes/coughs directly onto my head.
I will not spin around like Linda Blair in "The Exorcist" when bicyclists wearing earbuds go racing down the sidewalk and whiz past me and the dog.
My Good Citizen period never lasts more than three weeks.
And I might add, I hate New Year's. The time for silly hats is royal weddings or St. Patrick's Day. The dropping of the ball is for the Chicago Cubs. The only countdown I follow is the number of pinkelponkers I've pulled off the dog's paws over the past three months (we're well over a hundred). And the only New Year's I liked was the year I met Piano Player and it was 12 degrees and we took the bus to a club and he donned a satin top hat and I wore my grandmother's sweater from the 60s.
Here's my gardening resolutions anyway. But fair warning: take it with a grain of salt.
1. I resolve to plant flowers for bees and butterflies to snack upon. Also, I'm putting in bushes that enable crickets and grasshoppers to hide. Why? Too many gardeners want to eliminate these creatures who, by the way, pollinate flowers and vegetables.
2. I will feed the birds. And if a squirrel sits on the feeder, so be it.
3. I resolve to sumo wrestle my root-bound lavender, lantana and salvia into submission by dividing them and re-potting or giving them a place in the ground.
4. I will plant one tree in a barren parkway to make up for wanton butchery, also known as "tree trimming." I have considered an entire island of plantings on the parkway but I have to be realistic.
5. I shall stick to a budget. In this economy, it's essential.
6. I resolve to follow the rule of green thumb: repetition and not to buy every gosh darn plant that strikes my fancy. It looks like a nursery center exploded in my garden.
7. I resolve, as a writer, never to use the overworked phrase "bring the outdoors in" and, conversely, "extend your living space to the outdoors."
8. I will always put the right plant in the right place. Easier said than done. But if a plant requires full sunlight, and I don't have any place with the six solid hours of exposure, I will surrender.
9. I resolve to take breaks. Like most serious gardeners, I develop instant OCD once I get started. Being in the flow can be euphoric, but believe me, your lower back pays the price.
10. I shall relinquish my dream of creating an English cottage garden with foxgloves and roses. This ain't England and I'm no Jane Eyre.
Have a healthy, peaceful and verdant 2012!
A Gardener's New Year's Resolutions
The gardener being me.
Every year I resolve to be a good citizen. Every year Piano Player laughs, "We'll see how long that lasts."

Carrying your essentials throughout the school day or work day requires a well-designed pack, just as you would want for a day hike. Don't settle for thin, uncomfortable straps. You want straps that are padded and designed to distribute the load weight properly. For walking in the low light of morning and afternoons, you want reflective trim for safety.
1. The North Face Yavapai Backpack
The Yavapai is a great school pack with technical backpack features. Carry the load right with well-designed shoulder straps, sternum strap and hip strap. The back is ventilated for comfort. Organize your stuff in its pockets. Carry along drinks in the mesh pockets. Reflective stripe for safety. Compression straps to keep the load tidy.
2. REI Big School Pack
This school organizer daypack is made with recycled PET. It has three compartments and a padded back and padded, curved shoulder straps. It has mesh pockets on each side for a water bottle or other items. I like the reflective trim for better safety in low light. This model can go from school to a day hike with ease.

The Port Arthur News
The cause of a Monday fire at the Flint Hills Resources LLC plant in Port Arthur is under investigation, according to information filed with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
The company reported an emissions event after workers discovered a fire on the C3 hydrogenation feed pump at about 10:45 p.m. Monday, the filing stated.
The company's Emergency Operations Center was activated and its in-house fire department was called to put out the fire. The Light Olefins Unit was shut down and process gases were routed to that unit's flare.
According to the report, the fire's origin has not yet been determined. Emissions resulting from the incident are ongoing, the report indicated.
The company is required to file an initial report within 24 hours of an emission event, and has two weeks to file its final report, Lisa Wheeler, a spokesperson with TCEQ said via e-mail Wednesday.
TCEQ cannot comment further until receipt of the final report, Wheeler said.

It's now been nine weeks since my last relaxer (December 2, 2010) and I'm still hanging in there with my transition from relaxed to natural hair. In my previous blog post, I said that I was going to try the straw set on my hair. Well, I didn't quite get to it. I've been so busy finishing my classes towards my degree that I forget about it. Charge it to my head, not my heart. Any who, I've been wearing my hair in the Twist Out style, which I really like because I can keep it braided for a few days before I need to take it down. The only thing I do hate about the Twist Out is that because my hair is straight on the ends with relaxed hair, I have to roll it with perm rods to get it to curl on the ends. So until all of my relaxer has been cut out and my natural hair curl can form on its own, I will have to continue putting the perm rods in my hair when I do the Twist Out.
Also, my head has been itching like crazy these past couple of weeks! I felt like a dog with fleas! Man, the itching was driving me crazy and it was only in the spot that I call my "stress zone." Not sure if I failed to rinse the conditioner out my hair very well, or if the setting lotion I've been using was causing my head to itch. The setting lotion isn't alcohol based, so it couldn't have been drying out my hair and scalp.
Anyway, I washed my hair tonight and have been washing and deep conditioning it weekly. So far it's not itching anymore and I made sure I rinsed very well. I use a deep conditioner called Queen Helene Cholesterol Hair Conditioning Cream. I have been using this deep conditioner for the past 20+ years and still love it! This conditioner adds moisture to my over-processed hair, treats and conditions my damaged hair, and leaves my hair shiny and soft when I remember to use it. After washing my hair with Infusium23 Shampoo, I put a generous amount of the cholesterol conditioner on my hair, put a little water on it and work it into a creamy lather, comb through, cover my hair with a plastic cap, and sit under the dryer for about 30 minutes. Then, I rinse it out completely until the water runs clear. Next, I put Infusium23 Leave-in conditioner on my hair then begin styling. I think as long as I continue with my deep conditioning treatments, I shouldn't experience a lot of hair breakage. Plus, I've been keeping excessive heat (i.e. curling irons, flat irons, and blow dryers) off my hair and letting my hair air dry. I know that using these heat styling appliances has had a toll on my hair as well. You might be thinking that sitting under the hair dryer is considered heat. But, the difference is that heat from the hair dryer is being evenly distributed across the hair. Heat, from say a blow dryer, is being concentrated on one section of the hair at a time and sometimes for a long period of time to get it dry.
I also have about one inch of new growth, but I'm not cutting my hair off into a TWA (teeny weenie afro). I don't know how long I'll be able to go in dealing with the "new growth versus relaxed hair wars," but if push comes to shove, I'll get braids. When I first started my transition, I did cut about an inch off the ends all around, which didn't do a lot in reducing my length. I should have cut more, but it's too cold. Maybe once it starts to get a little warmer, I'll cut a little more off. I did keep my hair trimmed regularly when I did my relaxers, so I don't have very many split ends.
Well, that's my update. I have included a couple of pictures and I'll update you again in a couple of weeks on what's going on with my natural transition. Until then, peace and hair grease!

If you were born anywhere from 1982 to 2001, or within a few years of this range, you are considered a "Millennial." As a member of this group, you share many things cultural references, familiarity with technology, attitudes toward work and family with others your age. And if you're one of the "older" Millennials, you and your peers have something else in common; specifically, you have a good opportunity to launch investment strategies to help you save for the future.
Why are you so well positioned to invest for the future? For one thing, it's because you have so much of the future ahead of you. As an investor, time is your greatest ally, for a couple of reasons. First, the more years you have to invest, the greater the growth potential of your investments. And second, by investing for the long term, you can help reduce the impact of periods of short-term volatility on your portfolio.
Furthermore, since you may be in the early stage of your career, you probably have yet to reach your maximum earnings and may be eligible to put in the full annual amount to a Roth IRA, one of the most effective retirement savings vehicles available. (Eligibility to contribute to a Roth IRA is phased out over a specific income range.) When you invest in a Roth IRA, your earnings have the opportunity to grow tax free, provided you don't start taking withdrawals until you're at least 59 and you've had your account for at least five years.
Even if you do contribute to a Roth IRA, you can still participate in your employer-sponsored retirement plan, such as a 401(k) if you work for a company, a 457(b) if you work for a state or local government, or a 403(b) if you work for a school or other tax-exempt organization. And you should indeed contribute to your employer's plan, because it offers some key benefits: Your earnings accumulate on a tax-deferred basis, and you typically fund your plan with pre-tax dollars. So the more you put in, the lower your taxable income. (Taxes are due upon withdrawal, and withdrawals prior to age 59å1Ú2 may be subject to a 10 percent IRS penalty.)
The amount you can afford to put into your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored plan depends on your earnings and other circumstances but you should at least strive to contribute enough to earn your employer's match, if one is offered. Otherwise, you'll be walking away from "free" money.
All the money you contribute to your plan is yours, but if you leave your job before a specified vesting period which often ranges from three to seven years Ñ you may not be able to keep all your employer's contributions. Check your plan's rules to see how this applies to you.
Of course, since you, as a Millennial, are in the early stage of your working years, you may well be on the lookout for new job opportunities. But if you are close to being fully vested in your 401(k), you might consider waiting a few extra months or even a year Ñ to take a new job, so that you can leave with the money your employer has contributed.
As a Millennial, you've got time on your side as you invest for the future. So make sure you take advantage of all the opportunities that come your way.
Humphrey: "Millennials" in good position to invest for the future
If you were born anywhere from 1982 to 2001, or within a few years of this range, you are considered a "Millennial." As a member of this group, you share many things cultural references, familiarity with technology, attitudes toward work and family with others your age. And if you're one of the "older" Millennials, you and your peers have something else in common; specifically, you have a good opportunity to launch investment strategies to help you save for the future.

March 28, 2013
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.-Junior Tom Neubacher became the first Seminole to capture All-American accolades at the 2013 NCAA Championships in Indianapolis, Ind. Neubacher tallied a total of 383.50 points while finishing seventh in the 1-meter springboard event.
"I'm extremely proud of Tom," head diving coach Patrick Jeffrey said. "He was very consistent today. He had to throw a great last dive in prelims in order to make finals and he dove as well as I could have expected. He hit everything today. I thought he really held his own against a pair of Olympic medalists in finals and I'm really proud of him."
In prelims, Neubacher was toward the bottom of a ten-diver battle for places seven through 17.
"I knew I was pretty close and not out of it yet," Neubacher said. "Pat came over to me and he said `you saved your best dive for last, you know what you need to do so go out there and hit it.' Plus my brother (Mike Neubacher) keeps me calm and he was watching the scores in the stands and telling me how much I needed to make finals."
Saving his best dive for last, Neubacher scored eight's on an inward two-and-a-half somersault tuck for a total of 74.40 points.
"I knew I needed to go all out," Neubacher said. "Once I hit the water I knew it was a pretty good dive. I looked over and saw my scores and then Pat had his hands up, just celebrating and I knew I made it. It was one of the best moments of my career."
Neubacher completed prelims with a total of 345.10 good enough for eighth, just three points ahead of the ninth place competitor.
"I was pretty sure he was going to score but to get in the finals he needed to do exactly what he did," Jeffrey said. "He was the last diver and he needed 73 points. He couldn't have gotten a half-of-a-point lower, but he really did a great dive."
Diving first in finals, Neubacher improved in his first four dives before closing out with another solid inward, placing him in seventh.
Neubacher goes down in FSU history along with Roger Slater, Curt Genters, Phil Boggs and Terry Horner to become the fifth diver to ever claim All-American honors on 1-meter.
"It's fantastic," Neubacher said. "Even before college, becoming an All-American is such an elite group of athletes and that was my dream. I just wanted to make that status and get the plaque and perform well."
In swimming, junior Pavel Sankovich put FSU on the board with a 16th place finish in the 200 IM with a time of 1:44.61. Sankovich becomes the first Seminole in history to ever score in the 200 IM at the NCAA Championships.
"Pavel wasn't as sharp as he was at ACC's, but he did enough to make it into the top 16 to earn honorable mention honors," head coach Neil Harper said. "It's just another great achievement and he made a great effort."
In the 50 free, senior Mark Weber posted a 19.73, just off his 19.53 he set in prelims for 14th place in the event.
"I'm really excited for Mark," Harper said. "As a senior, making a `B' final and bouncing back after he swam well on that relay speaks volumes and I am happy for him."
Both swims were the first-career All-American honorable mentions for Sankovich and Weber.
In prelims, senior John Jessell posted a 4:23.51 in his final 500 free of his career. Jessell will swim the 1650 free on Saturday as his last race as a Seminole.
The Seminoles suffered a heartbreaking disqualification in the 200 free relay to start off the meet.
"We had such high hopes," Harper said. "Any time you have a relay that would have been top eight and then find out that one of the exchanges was early, it's devastating. It was very disappointing and we found it hard to rebound after that."
Florida State closed out the session with a 25th place finish in the 400 medley relay with a team of Sankovich, Jared Pike, Weber and Trice Bailey. They swam a time of 3:12.86.
After the first day of competition, Florida State is in 20th place with 16 points.
"We're on the board and we have an All-American diver and two honorable mention swimmers." Harper said. "Luckily, we have a lot more events where we can make up ground."
Friday's session will start off with the 200 medley relay. Sophomore Josh Friedel and Sankovich will swim the 100 back, while Weber will exercise the option to swim the 100 fly.
The top 16 qualifiers in each event will earn a spot in finals, which begin at 7 p.m. each night. All prelim sessions will be streamed live through the Indiana Spots Corporation. Friday and Saturday's finals can be watched on ESPN3.com.
For more information throughout the meet, check back to Seminoles.com, Facebook and Twitter.

Behind a stout defensive effort and a short touchdown run from junior Shaq Richards, Belleville earned its first victory under first-year head coach John Dubuque with Friday night's 6-0 home triumph over West Side High School.
"It's good for our kids. The kids work extremely hard," Dubuque said. "They've had a lot of turbulence over the last four months, losing their head coach (Chris Strumolo) and having a new head coach coming in. … It's good for them. They earned it."
Offensively, Belleville (1-1) broke in a new starting quarterback, sophomore Travon Gravenhise, after junior Brandon Richardson suffered a season-ending injury in the opening loss to Bloomfield. Although the Buccaneers turned the ball over five times, it only needed to find the end zone once, which came on a 3-yard run from Richards after long runs from senior Steven Sanabria and junior Pedro Acevedo (who suffered a broken foot and will be out six weeks according to Dubuque).
Belleville gained only 173 yards in its first victory, but Dubuque believes he found a potential solution at quarterback in the 6-for-2, 200-pound Gravenhise.
"He only had three days to learn everything," Dubuque said. "For what he could do out there, I was actually very impressed."
Even more impressive was the Belleville defense, which limited an athletic West Side squad to less than 100 yards. Senior linebacker Daniel Giangrande led a swarming attack with six stops, while fellow senior linebacker Nicholas Smallstey was in on five tackles. In addition, seniors Bryan Gonzalez and Armando Ramos each contributed three hits and a sack.
"We kept them contained," Dubuque said. "We had more of an umbrella coverage to keep them all inside. We did a nice job wrapping up. We didn't have any people play by themselves. It was always as a team."
Although the Bucs face a big challenge Friday night at perennial power Livingston after already losing two of their top players to injuries, their first win in their first home game under Dubuque could establish some momentum for the latter part of this season.
"We talk about protecting our house. And it was at our house," Dubuque said. "This was definitely good for our kids."

The Santa Monica Community College District wants Malibu's input on a draft environmental impact report for a proposed extension campus of Santa Monica College in Malibu.
A public scoping meeting, which is one of the first steps in the environmental process for a project, allows the public to provide suggestions on what should be included in the EIR, and is not meant to be a debate on the merits of the project.
The meeting, which is the second in a series of big projects coming to Malibu, is set for 6 p.m. Thursday, May 31 in the Malibu City Hall Multi-Purpose Room.
This week, during a public scoping meeting for the planned Rancho Malibu Hotel, more than 50 people , but also asked that any EIR going forward include analysis of the cumulative impact of planned development in and around the Civic Center area. Those projects include the hotel, the satellite campus, a Whole Foods grocery store and a subdivision of five luxury homes near Bluffs Park.
The SMC project will be located at the existing Sheriff's Station at 23555 Civic Center Drive, which was decommissioned in the 1990s and will be demolished. A two-story, 27,500 square-foot facility will be constructed in its place.
Plans for the campus include a science lab, art studio, computer lab, a lecture hall and two classrooms, as well as a sheriff's substation and a community room that can be used as an Emergency Operations Center, according to city documents.
The campus will be able to hold up to 210 students and 12 faculty and staff members, the documents state.
The project would temporarily connect to the existing onsite wastewater treatment system serving Los Angeles County Civic Center Complex, and it would eventually tie into the planned wastewater treatment facility in the Civic Center.
Mayor Laura Zahn Rosenthal has previously praised plans for the project.
"The city is excited to be working with Santa Monica College and Los Angeles County on the advancement of this project. The satellite campus will not only provide new educational opportunities for the Malibu community, but will strengthen law enforcement's ability to serve Malibu, especially during emergencies," Rosenthal said in March.
Malibu Patch will have more on this story soon.

About Anchor House
Anchor House is a Christian ministry located in Polk County, Florida committed to reaching boys in crisis. Perhaps you know a boy in Polk County who might benefit from being away from his parents for a season or longer. Often things happen as a result of parents being unable to take care of their son, independent of anything the boy has done. Maybe you know of a boy whose parents have died, or have had their rights terminated. Some parents are incarcerated and these boys have no place to go. Unfortunately, in Polk County, most often these boys must leave the area to receive the care they need.
Anchor House Ministries, a Christian facility, has been in Auburndale since 1974. It is dedicated to furnish a place for boy's ages eleven through eighteen that are referred either by the state, or private counselors. Through developing life plans that include goal setting and educational assessment, individual counseling, life skills training, and practical experience, we endeavor to enable young men to manage their own behavior, make sound life choices, and make positive decisions in preparation for reunion with their family, or independence and self-sufficiency. We are licensed by the State of Florida for forty plus boys. Anchor House offers a secure place, on our ten-acre campus, for boys to live in peace while they are nurtured in a Christian atmosphere. The boys also have an opportunity to grow self-sufficiently, leading into adulthood and becoming a positive influence in society. 'Boys becoming men,' is the tradition of Anchor House. Our graduates now serve our armed services, local government, business and industry, and many other vocations.

The San Francisco-based television show 'Mythbusters' has some explaining to do after one of its experiments went wrong and sent a speeding cannonball into a Dublin neighborhood. As NBC Bay Area's Cheryl Hurd tells us, the cannonball went clean through at least one house.
The cannonball shot by the Discovery Channel "Mythbusters" team continued to make a splash in Dublin Wednesday, one day after it tore through the Bay Area neighborhood.
The incident was not only the talk of the town, it was the talk of the country as word spread about the mishap.
By Wednesday afternoon, the stars of the show visited the damage site. Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman told the homeowner who suffered the most damage that something like this won't ever happen again.
"We're looking into all of the reasons this happened to make sure not only it never happens again but we make everything right," Savage and Hyneman said.
They also said they would put everything back where it belonged as quickly as possible.
That one cannonball ripped through the home's front door, up its stairs, into a bedroom where three people were sleeping and back outside through a wall.
It then cleared a six-lane road before knocking some tiles off a roof and smashed through the side window of a minivan. The van was the melon-sized cannonball's final resting place.
The producers and the stars of Mythbusters said they intended to fire the 6-inch steel object to test its velocity and that is was aimed at huge containers of water meant to absorb the impact, on the grounds of nearby Camp Parks disposal range. They were testing whether a make-shift cannonball made of rocks could travel as far and have the same impact as a Civil War era cast iron cannonball. But the cannonball somehow missed its mark, took an unforeseen bounce off a safety berm and barreled into the quiet Tassajara Creek area Tuesday afternoon.
Savage said Wednesday he thinks the cannonball was aimed too low. He admitted that something like this was "always a fear" of his.
No one was injured.

Which Blue Contacts Are The Right Ones When Choosing Color Contacts?
Color contacts come in a variety of colors, one of which is blue. Blue is the color of the sky, the ocean, depression and calm. In some religions, blue is the color of God's glory while in others it is the color of evildoers whose eyes are glazed with a bluish tint. Blue, therefore, is an exciting color evoking contrasting emotions and one which poses distinct challenges when it comes to choosing blue contacts.
Because blue contacts can signify so many different things, when should one pick blue in choosing color contacts. Research has shown that blue-eyed people are seen to be sweet, sexy and kind. Respondents in a research on color contacts chose blue (18%) as the third most popular color of choice after green (27%) and amethyst (26%). Blue, together with violet and green, is one of the colors recommended for people with natural brown eyes who are looking for color contacts to change the color of their eyes.
When thinking about blue contacts, it is important to consider how this will affect one's overall personality. Many people love blue contacts because of their bright and vibrant color. In the daytime, blue contacts may appear too bright and may not suit one's personality. In the subdued light of evenings, however, blue contacts may look very stunning and seductive.
Blue contact lenses come in different shades. Blue contacts are a good choice for people with fair skin and hair of a medium to dark shade. Women with red hair should opt for the lighter blue shades instead of the darker ones. Many people, attracted by the color blue stay away from the traditional blue shades and choose the more vivid blue colors. This can be a mistake because vivid blue colors can look too bright and may not always look attractive. In choosing color contacts, it is important to pick the shades that look as natural as possible in natural light. Outdoors, a blue shade that is too bright can look very artificial, whereas in the evenings, it can look exceptionally attractive.
When one has dark eyes, enhancement tint contacts will not show much of a difference. Opaque blue contact lenses are needed to show a noticeable color change. For these persons, sapphire shades are the ones that will really make a dramatic color difference.
Women with light colored eyes can choose between enhancement and opaque tints when choosing blue contacts. Blue enhancement tints highlight the natural color of the eyes while giving them a subtle blue shade. Sky blue colors give soft, natural effects. People with very light skin and eyes should choose opaque blue tints to get the look of darker eyes. Soft blue shades and dark blue violet ones should go over well when choosing blue contacts.

Authorities have dismissed charges against North Carolina basketball leading scorer P.J. Hairston from a traffic stop last month.
Hairston was arrested June 5 and charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession and driving without a license at a checkpoint in Durham. But according to the Durham County clerk of court's office those charges were dismissed Friday after Hairston produced proof he had a driver's license and had completed a drug assessment program.
Two passengers - Elizabeth City State player Miykael Faulcon and former college basketball player Carlos Sanford - were also charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession. Their cases are pending with an Aug. 6 court date.
Durham police also seized a 9mm handgun found outside the rental vehicle during the search, though spokeswoman Kammie Michael had said earlier this month that there were no plans to file additional charges in the case. Michael didn't respond to an email Monday asking whether authorities had linked that weapon to anyone.
That traffic stop was the second time in a month that Hairston had been cited while driving a rental vehicle linked to a convicted felon.
Hairston was cited for speeding in a 2012 Camaro on May 13 in a vehicle that was rented under a woman's name sharing the home address of Haydn Patrick "Fats'' Thomas. Thomas' name appears on rental records for the 2013 GMC Yukon that Hairston was driving on the night of his June arrest.
Thomas faces pending drug charges as well as a charge of possession of a firearm by a felon from a December arrest.
UNC athletic director Bubba Cunningham has said the school is reviewing potential improper conduct by members of the men's basketball team, though he didn't name any player specifically.
Last week, North Carolina coach Roy Williams said Hairston would face "serious consequences'' after his arrest, though he hadn't yet determined a punishment. Williams said he was considering several possible punishments, including suspension, though Williams said he would wait "until the process is complete'' to decide.
UNC senior associate athletic director for communications Steve Kirschner said there were no plans for Williams to issue a statement Monday following the dismissal of Hairston's charges.
Hairston, a 6-foot-5 1/2 swingman, averaged about 15 points per game and decided in April to return for his junior season instead of entering the NBA draft.

Free 7 on 7 Flag Football Plays
Warning: Illegal string offset 'video_embed' in /home/spblog/public_html/football-tutorials/wp-content/themes/wp-prosper-prem/single.php on line 34
When playing flag football it is important to have an arsenal of between 4 to 10 effective offensive plays that can be executed sharply and with vigor and speed. The following free 7-on-7 flag football plays can be easily changed or adapted depending on your team's strengths or weaknesses. Please feel free to update your team's playbooks to include variations on these free 7-on-7 flag football plays.
For the first play you will need a strong quarterback, wide receiver and running back. The quarterback receives the snap, and then runs down and to his left outside the tackle. In the meantime the left side running back clears a path by running a straight vertical line up through the defense while the wide receiver charts a course for a deep left catch by running an out route at about 8 yards. The quarterback throws the pass just as the receiver makes the cut.
For the next of the free 7-on-7 flag football plays, your two receivers will cross paths which serves to confuse the opposing team's defense squad on direction the ball is headed. On the snap, the receivers on the left side each run 3 yard flat routes crossing paths to distract their defenders. The quarterback runs straight back and throws the pass just as the receivers have finished their flat routes, aiming for the receiver closer to him. However, this play gives the quarterback the option of throwing to whichever receiver is in the open, giving it a great chance of success.

Two Canadians Sentenced in Alien Smuggling Case
The Office of the United States Attorney for the District of Vermont announced that Jonas Paul-Emile, 26, of Montreal and Emmanuel Badio, Jr., 41, also of Montreal, have been sentenced in United States District Court in Rutland on immigration charges. Today, Chief Judge Christina Reiss sentenced Badio to 24 months of imprisonment following his guilty plea to being found in the United States after being deported. Last December, Judge Reiss sentenced Paul-Emile to time served upon his guilty plea to a charge of alien smuggling.
According to court records, Jonas Paul-Emile entered the United States from Canada at the Champlain, New York Port-of-Entry on the evening of October 28, 2012. He was driving his own car and was alone. The next day, a Border Patrol agent observed Paul-Emile in Derby, Vermont and became suspicious. During surveillance, other Border Patrol agents followed Paul-Emile to a rural road that runs parallel to and within a few feet of the border. Paul-Emile then returned to a hotel in Newport.
Suspicious that Paul-Emile might be preparing for some kind of smuggling attempt, agents continued their surveillance. After dark on October 29, they observed him drive back to the area near the border he had earlier visited. Brake lights indicated the car stopped briefly before leaving the area and getting onto the Interstate Highway in Derby heading south. A vehicle stop revealed that Badio and a Dominican national, Juan Rodriguez-Castro, were then passengers in the car, having walked across the border through the woods. Because he had an extensive criminal record, Badio had been deported to Canada from the United States in 2000 and is not permitted to return. Rodriguez-Castro had no permission or visa to enter this country.
Paul-Emile was represented by John Pacht and Badio by David Williams. The prosecutor is Assistant U.S. Attorney Gregory Waples.
