text: Mike D'Antoni's coaching debut with the Lakers is put on hold He won't coach when the Lakers host the Houston Rockets tonight at Staples Center. D'Antoni hinted at the possibility following morning shootaround Sunday, even saying he was "50-50 as he tries to recover from recent knee replacement surgery. But the decision didn't become official until about 3:30 p.m. The Lakers have listed D'Antoni as day-to-day, making it unclear whether he will coach Tuesday against the Brooklyn Nets. "I don't want to get out there and not be able to move," he said during morning shootaround. "It would be crazy with just the mobility aspect of it. It would be a sideshow and take away the focus of what you need to focus on."

Factoid No. 4 from Y-12 EIS
Here's another excerpt from the Site-Wide Environmental Impact Statement for Y-12. The document is the base of information that will be used to support decisions to build a new multi-billion-dollar production center known as the Uranium Processing Facility or UPF.
"Upon completion of the UPF construction (approximately 2016), the operational workforce for the UPF would be expected to be smaller than the existing EU (enriched uranium) workforce due to efficiencies associated with the new facility. NNSA estimates that the total number of EU workers should decrease to approximately 950, which is a reduction of approximately 350 workers compared to the current EU workforce."

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
Project Description
The SharePoint Kerberos Buddy provides an intelligent client application that examines a mixed tier SharePoint environment locating commonly misconfigured Kerberos configuration elements. The application can detect errors on SharePoint, SSAS, SSRS, and on the
The SharePoint Kerberos Buddy functions by leveraging both inherent Windows tooling (meaning, called from and baked into the native OS), bundled Microsoft tooling in order to support Active Directory lookups, as well as custom routines using collected implementation
information to perform analysis. Because SharePoint may have split tiers within the farm, Kerberos authentication can be complex to deploy. This situation can even be further complicated when focusing on a BI focused-environment whereby warehousing services
can be on or off-loaded. An orthodox example of this is a SharePoint WFE running SSRS in integrated mode, while SSAS is offloaded onto a separate server. This is common with some folks that want to have a large singular machine to service OLAP and data mining
capabilities. This level of implementation complexity is the exact situation that the SharePoint Kerberos buddy is meant to target.
The tool must be run individually on all tiers within the farm with the target profile selected; the analysis interface is not enabled unless all obligatory files are present. Each of the results post-profiling is placed in a customized *.sharepointkerberos
format in the local Analysis directory. Exact file generation will differ depending on the target tier and related profile. All of these results in the end must be placed within a singular Analysis directory, which will enable the Analysis button and provide
advice on how to solve the problems within the interface.
More granular detail regarding the tool, as well as screenshots of how to use the interface, are available at:
To install it, just use the setup.exe file in the Source Code directory. This will add a pointer to it in the local all programs menu. If maintaining a Kerberos/SharePoint environment, it is helpful to keep the tool installed as the environment scales up
/ scales down.

Students used red and black construction paper. The red paper was to symbolize a fall setting and black trees symbolized bare trees. Students cut stripes of black paper of various thicknesses. Trees closer in the art were larger and closer in the foreground of the composition. Trees smaller, were thinner and placed further back in the composition. Students placed the trees at various positions throughout the composition, showing close trees and further away trees. Last, they added small branches to the trees, by cutting small stripes of black paper. The trees were glued down onto the paper.
Forest of Trees in Perspective

Block Letter Perspective
January 19, 2012 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
I taught students perspective by writing their names in block letters. I asked for a volunteer for the example. I wrote their name in block letters. I then made a perspective point above the block letters. Next I took a ruler and any edge of the letter the ruler could reach, I drew a line from the edge of the letter to the perspective point, also known as a vanishing point. After the vanishing lines were drawn, you followed the letter's shape to define the letters from the vanishing point lines. Last, I erased the extra vanishing point lines. The letters appeared to shrink as they went back in space. You can also apply to this shapes. I gave an example with hearts and a square, turning them into a shrinking 3-d shapes.
Train Track Perspective
January 19, 2012 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
I explained perspective by asking students if they ever stood on a train track. Then I asked if the track looked smaller when you stood on the train track, as you follow the train track and look far down the track. Students answered yes. I explained that even though the track appeared smaller, it wasn't actually smaller, but just appeared smaller because it was further away. This helped explain what perspective means.
I drew an example for the students. On white construction paper, I drew two lines for the train track leading back and narrowing. I drew train track sign up close at the beginning of the track and a large tree. I drew smaller trees along the side of the track as the track went further back. Students followed my example, drawing their own track and added some of their own details like animals in the scenery.
Hills and Trees Large to Small – Learning Perspective
January 19, 2012 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
I explained perspective standing near my students and saying, I appear larger to you because I am close to you. Then I ran to the other side of the classroom and asked the students, if I looked smaller, larger, or the same at this distance. The students said smaller. Then I explained how this concept applies to art by saying objects closer to you appear larger, but objects further away appear smaller.
In their art project students were given construction paper and crayons. I gave a demonstration, drawing overlapping hills, with the largest hill in the front. Then I drew trees on the hills. The larger hills had larger trees because they were closer and smaller hills had smaller trees because they were further away. With my example students created similar art showing they could draw perspective.
Swimming Jellyfish – A Study of Movement
January 19, 2012 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
As I introduced this lesson, I talked about the movement of the water. I asked the students how we could use art to show the movement of the water. Students answered by drawing wiggly lines to show the ripples. When I told the students they would be creating jellyfish, I told them the to think about how the water moves the tentacles of the jellyfish and how the water would make the tentacles move in the water, like their tentacles rippling with water movement.
The materials used are: flat board canvas, blue and green acrylic paint, colored tissue paper, and modge podge. Modge podge is a all-in-one glue, sealer and finish. Students first painted the background of their canvas. They cut out the shape half circles for the jellyfish head from tissues paper and took several pieces of pre-cut tissue paper stripes. They used the modge podge on both the front and back on the tissues paper as they applied it with sponge.
To make the canvases easily hung, an adult can drill two small holes into the top of the canvas. A pretty ribbon tied into bow creates a simple, pretty idea on how to hang the paintings.
Ocean Waves with Depth
October 3, 2011 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
I gave students a step by step guide on how to draw an ocean wave. I also showed students where to apply darker shades and lighter shades of the value scale to create depth in their wave. In the barrel of the wave, a range of value was created to show the wave was tunneling. The ocean water in the front of the wave was lighter because it is closer to the viewer, whereas the the wave was darker because it is further away from the viewer. The splash of the wave was white, imitating the white water created by waves.
Learning about Value with a Still Life Study
October 3, 2011 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
Students were given a piece of modeling clay and were told create a ball. I told them to put the ball on their table and study where the light hit the ball. The light source was the above on the ceiling, therefore the lightest area of light was on the top of the ball and the darkest area of light was on the bottom of the ball. I told them to draw a circle and study how the light hit to ball. Students used charcoal for shading. They also added a shadow. The shadow helped to show the ball was on a surface and not floating in space.
Great Job 3rd and 4th grade!
Value Scale on a Circle

3 Dimensional Shapes with Value
October 3, 2011 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
I gave students papers with 3 dimensional shapes and asked them to shade in each surface area with a different shade of grey using pencils. I asked students how to create lighter and darker shades. They responded by pressing lighter or harder with their pencil. Using 3-dimensional shapes helped them understand how the value scale of grey can help create a shape to become more 3-dimensional.
Color Wheel
October 3, 2011 by The Art Teacher · Comments Off · Uncategorized
Students were given the primary colors and had to create secondary and tertiary colors by using only the three primary colors.
Red, yellow, and blue are primary colors.
Orange, purple, and green are secondary colors.
- Yellow and red makes orange.
- Blue and yellow makes green.
- Red and blue makes purple.
Yellow-orange, red-orange, blue-purple, red-purple, blue-green, and yellow-green are tertiary colors.
- To make a tertiary color y0u add slightly more one of the primary colors when mixing paints. For example: to make a blue-green, you mix together more blue with less yellow.

French drinks industry wins internet battle
- Tuesday 10 March 2009
The measure has still to be approved by the Senate but is a major victory for the drinks industry. Health minister Roselyne Bachelot supported the amendment to the Evin Law. She argued the government was not slackening the laws but accepting the reality of the internet age.
Damien Bonnabel, of findawine.com, is one of the most vocal supporters of the pro-wine lobby and welcomed the amendment. 'Those opposing the amendment continued to suggest the internet is a lawless place where all users are underage... which is clearly not the reality,' he told decanter.com
The National Assembly also agreed to raise the minimum age for buying alcohol from 16 to 18.
Drink-as-much-as-you-like bars will be forbidden. However the text permits professional tastings at chateaux, wine fairs and traditional festivals.
Another measure will forbid the sale of alcohol in service stations after 6pm.
'The anti-alcohol lobby will take this as a victory for the wine industry but rather it is simply bringing things back into balance. The idea that the Evin Law should not be updated to reflect today's realities was absurd, and the idea that wine tastings at chateaux should be illegal was also clearly illogical,' added Bonnabel.

Bougainvillea 'Elizabeth Angus' is a moderate grower with a full, lush growth habit. Large, quilted bracts are vivid, neon purple. Bracts are persistent, which mean that bracts remain attached after they have expired. This is easily remedied with a light trim or hand-picking, and is very much worth the small effort to showcase such a unique, vibrant shade of purple. Leaves are large, quilted, dark-green, and glossy.
Elizabeth Angus is best suited for training into bush, small to medium-sized trellis, standards, and hanging baskets. This cultivar can suffer leaf problems if allowed to remain in wet, humid conditions. Bougainvillea do not like 'wet feet', and this one especially likes to dry out thoroughly between waterings.
Mature Size
6-10' tall X 4-6' wide. Can be pruned to stay smaller.
Full, direct sun. A minimum of 5 hours a day.
Water Usage
Low once established. Water regularly after planting to encourage a deep root system, then reduce to only as needed. Bougainvillea are drought-tolerant plants and perform beautifully in any xeriscape (Landscaping that doesn't require a lot of water), or other environmental design minimizing the need for water use.
Use BOUGAIN® Quick Release Bloom Boost every 30 days.
Trimming and Pinching
After each blooming cycle (approximately every 4-6 weeks), trim or pinch the soft tips of young plants stems to encourage new growth. Pinching means removing the growing tip. This will create multiple offshoots, thicken the plant's appearance, and yield a more colorful bougainvillea.
Planting or Re-potting
Take care not to disturb the bougainvillea's delicate root system during planting or re-potting. Never pull on the stem of the plant as their weak roots can be easily severed. We highly recommended that you plant bougainvillea in their nursery pots with the bottom of the pot cut out. Use a quick-drain soil suitable for bougainvillea like BGI Select Soil.
Cold Hardiness
Performs best in hardiness zones 9-11, but can be used as annual color in colder climates.
Color Season
In the Southeastern U.S., Bougainvillea 'Elizabeth Angus' flowers year-round if dry conditions exist. Evergreen.

The Missouri House has approved legislation that seeks to reinstate limits on noneconomic damages in medical malpractice lawsuits.
Originally published on Fri January 17, 2014 5:53 pm
The speaker of the Missouri House is pushing lawmakers to restore caps on damages in medical malpractice lawsuits.
A 2005 Missouri law created a $350,000 cap on non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering. But that cap was tossed out in 2012 by the Missouri Supreme Court. House Speaker Tim Jones, R-Eureka, surrounded by a group of medical professionals and lawmakers Thursday in Jefferson City, said restoring the caps will be one of his top priorities this year.
Missouri lawmakers plan to try again to limit how much money people can receive in medical malpractice lawsuits.
Missouri House Speaker Tim Jones says the liability limits are a priority for the 2014 session. And Rep. Eric Burlison, of Springfield, already is promoting a bill.
Republican lawmakers want to reinstate a $350,000 limit on noneconomic damages such as pain and suffering that was struck down by the Missouri Supreme Court in July 2012.
Republican legislators in Missouri will try again next year to restore caps on damages awarded in medical malpractice lawsuits.
Debate has stalled in the Missouri Senate over legislation that would reinstate a limit on certain damages in medical malpractice lawsuits. The state Supreme Court struck down the previous cap.

Efforts in Missouri to restore caps on non-economic damages in medical malpractice lawsuits are in limbo.
The Missouri has approved legislation seeking to reinstate a cap on some damages in medical malpractice lawsuits after the state Supreme Court struck down the existing limit.
Several doctors testified before a Missouri House committee today, urging lawmakers to reinstate liability limits for medical malpractice cases.

Money on the markets
A maturing market amid the mayhem
Realty index drops over 2 percent
Realty stocks fared poorly on Tuesday with the sectoral index slipping nearly 2.5 percent in an overall market that dropped nearly 200 points.
Anant Raj Industries ended as the top sectoral loser with losses of over 5 percent. Unitech followed closely with a drop of 4.3 percent. Shares in DLF, India's top listed realty firm shed 2 percent.
Only three stocks in the index – Ansal Properties, Sobha Developers and Phoenix Mills – ended in the green.
The realty index has dropped over 10 percent in 2010 as compared to a near 7.5 percent fall in the BSE Sensex. Unitech has dropped 11.6 percent and DLF has slipped nearly 10 percent in the same period.
Would you take advantage of the fall and buy some stocks in this sector?

Mixed trend in spot rubber
Kottayam , Aug 18
Mixed trend continued in spot rubber. Most of the leading overseas futures except TOCOM finished in red prompting the traders to stay back from active trading.
Sheet rubber RSS 4 was quoted steady at Rs 92.50 and Rs 93 a kg respectively at Kottayam and at Kochi lacking genuine sellers and buyers on the grade. The domestic supply concerns failed to strengthen the spot prices.
Futures improve
The rubber futures improved marginally on NMCE. The volumes were extremely low at 560 tonnes with absolutely no trades recorded in December till 2 pm. The September contract was traded at Rs 90.76 (Rs 90.06), October contract at Rs 87.88 (Rs 87.25), and November contract at Rs 87.50 (Rs 87.20) per kg for RSS 4.
Spot prices (Rs a kg) were: RSS-4: Rs 92.50 (Rs 92.50); RSS-5: Rs 90 (Rs 90); ungraded: Rs 86.50 (Rs 86.50); ISNR 20: Rs 89.50 (Rs 90) and latex 60 per cent: Rs 72.61 (Rs 73.14).

HOUSTON – Everything in Uptown Park's University Co-Op store is all about the Texas Longhorns, and everything UT these days is all about Mack Brown.
Every other day there seems to be reports that after 16 years Mack Brown is done being the head coach at his beloved University of Texas.
Some alumni say he should stay.
"He just needs to get the right players, the right schedule and it will all come back together. Hook 'em Horns, man!" Andrew Brams, a UT graduate, said.
However, plenty of college football fans that KHOU 11 News talked, which were mostly Aggies, said Brown should move on.
There is also plenty of talk about who would take Brown's place. The name that keeps coming up is Alabama's Nick Saban.
"I would love to have Nick Saban. He looks like Don Johnson," Behany Coots, a Saban admirer, said.
Texas booster Red McCombs is quoted as saying he likes UT's chances of wooing Saban.
"All the money that's not under the Vatican is at UT," McCombs said.

Potato-Mushroom Smothered Pork Chops
Posted By Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom On October 8, 2012 @ 5:00 pm In Gluten Free,Pork,Recipes | 5 Comments
I'd really like to call this a one-dish dinner. But I'm not going to. I could. But I won't, because I can't. Because yes, the second step in the process involves cooking all the food together in one dish. But there's a first step that involves 2 other pans. One for the potatoes, another for the mushrooms and onions. So too many dishes to justify not calling it "one-dish."
This meal is next on my list for when we have company over for dinner…this really is a great inexpensive and impressive "company dish" that you could serve to anyone!
I used red potatoes that were on sale for 2 lbs for $1, a big pack of pork chops that was reduced for quick sale, and half of a pound of sliced mushrooms that was on sale for $2. Served with a side of frozen broccoli for an super inexpensive dish that could have served 8, but left our family with plenty of leftovers!
Potato-Mushroom Smothered Pork Chops
Yield – 8 servings
Preparation Time – 30 minutes
Cooking Time – 30 minutes
- 2 lbs. baby red potatoes (about 16), quartered ($1)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil ($.05)
- 8 oz. sliced mushrooms ($1)
- 1 small white or yellow onion, chopped ($.20)
- Salt and pepper
- About 3 Tbsp butter or margarine ($.10)
- About 1/4 cup milk or sour cream or cream cheese ($.25)
- 8 pork chops ($3.51)
- Salt and pepper
- Broccoli or other vegetable side ($1)
- Boil the quartered red potatoes. (I left the skins on because I was feeling lazy…and small red potatoes are tough to peel.)
- Saute the mushrooms and onions in the olive oil in a large skillet for 10 to 15 minutes, over medium heat.
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Once the potatoes are done, drain and add to bowl and mash with the butter, milk or sour cream or cream cheese (whatever you like to use to make mashed potatoes.) Gently fold in the sauteed mushrooms and onions. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the pork chops into an 9×13 baking dish and sprinkle salt and pepper over the top. Top with the potato-mushroom mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until pork chops have cooked through.
- Prepare the broccoli or other vegetable.
- Serve Potato-Mushroom Smothered Pork Chops with side of veggies.
Cost $7.11 (for 8 servings!)

Internet Tips forTeens :
"Sexting" usually refers to teens sharing nudephotos via cellphone, but it's happening on other devices and the Web too. Thepractice can have serious legal and psychological consequences, so – teens andadults – consider these tips!
It's illegal: Don't take or sendnude or sexually suggestive photos of yourself or anyone else. If you do, evenif they're of you or you pass along someone else's – you could be charged withproducing or distributing child pornography. If you keep them on your phone or computeryou could be charged with possession. If they go to someone in another state(and that happens really easily), it's a federal felony.
Non-legal consequences: Thenthere's the emotional (and reputation) damage that can come from havingintimate photos of yourself go to a friend who can become an ex-friend and sendit to everyone you know. Not only can they be sent around; they can bedistributed and archived online for people to search for pretty much forever.
Not just on phones. Sexting canbe done on any media-sharing device or technology – including email and theWeb. Teens have been convicted for child porn distribution for emailingsexually explicit photos to each other.
Many causes. In some cases, kidsare responding to peer pressure in a form of cyberbullying or pressure from aboyfriend or girlfriend (they break up, and sometimes those photos get sentaround out of revenge). Sometimes it's impulsive behavior, flirting, or evenblackmail. It's always a bad idea.
The bottom line: Stay alert whenusing digital media. People aren't always who they seem to be, even in reallife, and sometimes they change and do mean things. Critical thinking aboutwhat we upload as well as download is the best protection.

Low-Dose Sertraline in the Treatment of Moderate-to-Severe Premenstrual Syndrome: Efficacy of 3 Dosing Strategies
Susan G. Kornstein, M.D.; Teri B. Pearlstein, M.D.; Rana Fayyad, Ph.D.; Gail M. Farfel, Ph.D.; and John A. Gillespie, M.D.
Objective: Many studies have demonstrated the efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in the treatment of premenstrual dysphoric disorder, but few studies have investigated the efficacy of SSRIs in the treatment of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sertraline in the treatment of moderate-to-severe PMS using 3 different dosing strategies: luteal phase (2 cycles), followed by continuous dosing throughout the month (1 cycle), followed by dosing begun at the first onset of PMS symptoms, or "symptom-onset" dosing (1 cycle).
Method: 314 women with PMS from 22 U.S. sites were randomly assigned to fixed-dose treatment with sertraline (25 or 50 mg/day) or placebo for 4 menstrual cycles after a single-blind, placebo lead-in cycle. Assessments included the Daily Symptom Report (DSR), the Clinical Global Impressions-Severity of Illness and -Improvement scales, the Patient Global Evaluation scale, the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire, and the Social Adjustment Scale-Self Report.
Results: Intermittent luteal-phase dosing with low doses of sertraline (25 and 50 mg/day) produced significant improvement across 2 menstrual cycles, based on total DSR scores, compared with placebo. Continuous and symptom-onset dosing were also effective in treating PMS symptoms, particularly at the lower dose of 25 mg/day.
Conclusions: The results of the current study suggest that low doses of sertraline may be a safe, effective, and well-tolerated treatment for moderate-to-severe PMS.

Among the principles that set the United States apart from other countries is that we are "a nation of laws, not of men."
So it is disturbing that President Barack Obama disregarded the Constitution by appointing members to the National Labor Relations Board without obtaining the advice and consent of the Senate. Obama contends that the Senate was in recess, but the Senate was not in recess; it was holding what it called pro forma sessions. The Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit unanimously agreed that Obama violated the Constitution in making these appointments.
Ironically, Democrat senators had used this same procedure to prevent President George W. Bush from making similar recess appointments. It is also disturbing that Obama, in his frustration with Congress for not enacting legislation he wants, tries to bypass Congress and instead use agency rules or executive orders to unlawfully impose his policies against the will of Congress. He has done this with student loans, Obamacare waivers, home foreclosures, illegal aliens, citizens rights under the First and Second Amendments, DOMA and many other issues. The constitutional checks and balances have been evaded time after time by the Obama administration, seizing executive power and dangerously undermining the rule of law.

Tribune columnists
— A spy in the crowd
Every Wednesday the Tipton County Citizens for Responsible Development meet at the south branch of the Kokomo/Howard County Public Library to plan their opposition to the proposed Prairie Breeze Wind Farm, just west of Sharpsville.
Prairie Breeze is being developed by juwi Wind. The company plans to invest $300 million for the placement of 94 wind turbines that will generate 150 megawatts of electricity. The company's request for a conditional use permit is set to be heard Feb. 25 by the Tipton County Board of Zoning Appeals.
During last week's meeting a man at the meeting said he recently stood close to a wind turbine and said the noise was not intolerable. He added that he believed most farmers were supportive of the project.
The man said he wasn't a lease holder and didn't work for juwi.
Since the meetings are open to the public, it would probably be safe to believe that supporters of the wind farm project — or juwi company officials — would be in attendance to learn the group's strategy.
Killing machines
In Tipton County, much will probably be made of the predilection of wind turbines to kill birds, but last week the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, in conjunction with Smithsonian researchers, identified an even bigger threat: outdoor cats.
According to the researchers, roughly 150,000 to 400,000 birds in the United States die in wind turbines, according to recent estimates, while between 10 million and 1 billon birds die annually after colliding into glass.
Cats, however, are suspected of killing between 1.4 billion and 3.7 billion birds each year in the U.S. That's about 10 percent of the total bird population.
We won't go as far as the New Zealand researcher who suggested outlawing cats, but one wonders how much stress the poor birds can stand. Maybe it's best to keep Fluffy indoors.
A financial hit
Most people who have a savings account or a certificate of deposit with local financial institutions know that the current interest rates aren't exactly a windfall.
For local units of government with millions to invest, interest revenue once provided a significant amount of additional funding.
Last year, Howard County earned $133,599 on investments of $11 million, according to Treasurer Ann Wells. That may sound like a great deal of funding, but not in comparison to the $2.3 million earned in 2007.
Wells said the interest earned last year was the lowest amount since 2001.
She said the interest earned is distributed based on a percentage to nine different funds, the county's general fund earned $98,904 in interest.
Bonita Guffey, Tipton County Treasurer, said the county earned only $22,966 on investments in 2012. That compares to the $92,858 earned in 2009.
Guffey said the county has not invested a great deal of money in 2012 because the interest rate for a savings account was lower than for a checking account.
Downtown beautification
For those keeping track of the city's infrastructure projects, which isn't easy, keep an eye on Apperson Way between Superior Street and Vaile Avenue.
Last week, the Kokomo Board of Public Works & Safety approved plans and specifications to continue the tree-lined medians further south, extending the corridor which stretches up to Taylor Street. The corridor will connect the new veterans housing project at Jackson Street with the renovated wing of the Memorial Gym complex, which is slated to host Indiana University Kokomo's home basketball games.
City officials haven't yet bid out the Apperson project.

Asset failure plans may not be followed
IFS study finds risk management plans aren't backed up with action plans.
While many industrial companies in a recent study report having asset integrity management plans and sustainability plans on file, only 21% are using information technology that would ensure those plans are being followed.
This, according to experts at IFS North America, means that adequate measures are not being followed that would protect stakeholder investments - and in many cases the environment - by preventing asset failure.
IFS North America conducted the study of more than 200 executives from medium sized to large companies with help from Mint Jutras principal analyst Cindy Jutras. While 58% of study respondents report having an asset integrity management or risk mitigation plan in place, few are using centralized enterprise technology like an enterprise asset management system to track the key elements of that plan, including documents about the equipment and assets themselves and information on the training and certification of employees working on the assets.
Asset integrity management ensures that an asset, like a piece of equipment or industrial facility, is operated in such a way that it can generate productivity and in many cases avoid damaging the environment. Effective asset integrity management provide mechanisms to see that the people, systems, processes and resources that deliver integrity are in place, in use and will perform when required over the whole lifecycle of the asset.
According to IFS North America Director for Asset Management Patrick Zirnhelt, asset integrity management ought to be a key concern for any stakeholder of a business that relies on productivity and viability of capital assets.
"A process manufacturer, during a catastrophic equipment failure, may lose revenue or inventory," Zirnhelt said. "But for companies in the oil and gas industry, mining or power generation, asset failure can also involve health and safety breaches, environmental damage and civil or even criminal liability. Asset integrity management planning and execution is all about risk mitigation, regardless of how much is at stake. What our study found is that because data regarding the asset are being kept in spreadsheets, in various files on servers or in hard copy, it is almost impossible to ensure that asset data is current, that unqualified workers are not installing or maintaining equipment and that any type of asset integrity plan is being followed.

The Tonawanda News
Say good-bye to paper cuts, folks, cause the library is offering an electronic alternative to print books. OK, so it's not exactly brand new, but e-books and audio books are available for free to download from the library. So fire up those e-readers and MP3 players you got for Christmas and do a little light reading entirely from the comfort of your own home.
The circulation of this e-content has exploded over the last several months, according to library officials at both the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library and the Nioga Library System. The Erie County library's circulation for e-books in December 2009 was 713, but by December 2010 it was up to 5,571.
Nioga Library System executive director Thomas Bindeman also says he started seeing a sharp increase in interest over the past summer months.
E-content is a relatively new addition to most libraries across the nation. Basically patrons can use a library's website to check out and download audiobooks, e-books, MP3s and even videos from their home computers. There's no need to even step foot in the library, except, of course, to obtain a library card which gives users access to the online content.
"If they didn't have library cards this would certainly be a good reason to get one," said Erie County librarian Pat Covley.
Other than a valid library card, there are just a few things users need to get started: Internet access, a computer or device (e-reader, smartphone or MP3 player) that meets specifications for the type of content you wish to acquire and free software to make it all work.
If it all sounds a little confusing, don't worry, both libraries' websites offer guides and tutorials to getting started. Covley concedes, though, it's probably a little easier for the younger patrons to make the technological transition.
"I'm a parent and my kids are always looking for new formats, new ways to use information. They adapt seamlessly," she said. "For older people like myself it takes more to get acclimated to the technology."
For libraries, it's all about adapting to changes in technology and consumer wants.
"I think the library offering all (this e-content), it's just keeping us in line with what's going on in the world. We're in tune with the technology that certain age groups expect," Erie County library public affairs manager Joy Testa Cinquino said. "For libraries to stay alive we need to stay in touch with those who don't need to or want to walk into the library. It's not your grandfather's library anymore ... it's the library of the 21st century and then some."
Erie County libraries have offered web access to download audiobooks since the end of 2006 (offering about 4,000 titles) and e-books since 2009 (4,500 titles). The Nioga libraries have offered access to both for roughly a year with 404 audio titles and 1,224 e-books.
Both library systems are constantly adding to their selections as the demand arises. The Erie County libraries base their selections on bestsellers lists and their current electronic circulation.
Despite being electronic, these audio and e-books must both be "checked out" of the library and "returned" by the appointed due date. E-books are automatically deleted from your reading device when they are due, while patrons must actually delete audiobooks themselves.
Just like with print, the library can only lend one copy of these books out at a time because of licensing agreements. That said, they often must purchase multiple copies of the more popular titles to cut down on wait times.
There are still a few kinks in the e-book world, however, and Bindeman cites a lack of consistency in format. Amazon Kindle devices, for example, do not work with the file type that libraries use. Additionally, the software used for the iPhone and iPad is only optimized for the phone so while it still works on the tablet, the format is smaller. Searches online show that for most problems like this there are unofficial workarounds.
"As the application software becomes more available and once the stuff becomes easier, the sky's the limit," Bindeman said.
Testa Cinquino agrees that the future looks good for this new medium.
"Your library card is free and to download it's free," she said. "There are 37 physical branches but you can download a book 24 hours a day ... in the middle of the night when it's convenient for you."

The .280 Ackley Goes Mainstream
Nosler is factory producing two offerings in their Custom Line of ammunition. One is the aforementioned 140 grain AccuBond and the other a 150 grain E-Tip. In testing the Accubond, it was among the most accurate ammunition I have ever shot in my custom rifle — better than reloads. Nosler also factory produces both a 140 gr. and 160 gr. cartridge in .280 AI from their Trophy Grade line, using the Accubond and Partition bullets respectively.
For handloaders, Hornady, Lee Precision, Redding and RCBS all offer dies for the cartridge. L.E. Wilson, makers of case trimmers, offer a case holder and neck trimming die specifically designed to accommodate the .280 Ackley's 40-degree shoulder.
You can even get 40-degree shoulder brass from Norma in .280 AI, eliminating the need for initial fireforming. There are no shortages of recipes, either, with both Sierra and Nosler publishing reloading data in their current manuals.
The cartridge is featured in the 12th Edition of Cartridges of the World.
In 2007, Nosler showed up with the Nosler Custom Rifle chambered in .280 Ackley Improved. And for the more budget-minded, Kimber's Model 84L Classic Select Grade and Montana are both available in .280 AI and are excellent guns.
The .280 Ackley is an improvement over a standard 280 Remington, and that's not easy to do. It's a hot cartridge — as good as any hard-kicking over-bore capacity magnum in similar calibers — but without the harsh recoil.
When it's time to head to the deer stand, I could grab a .30-06 or .243. But why? The .280 Ackley Improved was in Ackley's day, and remains today, a better choice. Next deer season give it a try, and see if you don't agree.

BAXTER SPRINGS, Kan. —
Voters in the Baxter Springs School District on Tuesday will cast ballots on an $8 million bond issue for additions to the high school and elementary school and safe rooms for all school buildings. The plan eliminates the need for the current middle school building.
"The major stimulus for this whole project was the tornado in Joplin," said Superintendent Dennis Burke. He said that when the school board met after the tornado, administrators and board members realized their plan for storms wasn't adequate.
"We feel like this plan takes care of student safety and future education needs for quite a ways down the road," Burke said.
A simple majority vote is required for approval.
The bond issue would require a property tax increase of 9 mills, to 51 mills. The owner of a home in the school district with a market value of $100,000 now pays annual property taxes to the school district of $437 under the current 42-mill tax rate. The increase would boost the homeowner's tax bill by $103.50, to $540.50.
Burke said the state will pay 58 percent of the construction cost, reducing the amount of the tax increase required for the projects. He also said that money may not be available to the district in the future.
The bond issue would finance a new wing for seventh- and eighth-graders at Baxter Springs High School. It also would pay to build an addition at Central Elementary School for sixth-graders. That building now contains pupils in grades three through five.
The plan also calls for two kindergarten classroom additions at Lincoln Elementary School to serve as storm shelters. A portion of the seventh- and eighth-grade addition at the high school also would function as a safe room. At Central Elementary School, an added dining room would be built to provide storm protection for students.
Burke said if voters approve the measure, it would allow the district to stop using the Baxter Springs Middle School building, which was built in 1918. The building currently has students in grades six through eight.
"It's in need of some pretty major renovations," Burke said. "It comes with all the problems of a 94-year-old building."
He said it also would be difficult and costly to retrofit the building to accommodate modern electronic equipment.
If the bond issue is approved, Burke said the school board would appoint a committee to repurpose the middle school building. Other discontinued school buildings have become senior citizen housing or commercial buildings.

Unless otherwise noted, information about the following incidents was supplied by the Narragansett Police Department. An arrest does not indicate a conviction.
Narragansett Man Charged With Larceny from Roch's, Also Has Two Warrants for Arrest
Leslie Bernal, 32, of 1084 Boston Neck Road, Apt. #7, Narragansett, was arrested at about 9:15 a.m. on Sept. 22 and charged with larceny. Police said there were also two Sixth Division District Court warrants out for Bernal's arrest.
According to police, they received a report of a larceny at Roch's on Sept. 21, and reviewed surveillance footage of the incident at that time. On the footage, a man is seen shoving tenderloin steaks down his shorts as he left the market.
The next day, an officer noted a man – Bernal – matching the appearance of the man in the footage. Police said Bernal was exiting CVS on Boston Neck Road at the time.
According to police, when asked about the stolen steaks from Roch's, Bernal told them, "I'll pay for the steaks. I will have cash on Monday and I can go to Roch's and pay for them. Do you think they'll drop the charges?"
Police told Bernal that they appreciated his honesty, but the store manager wished to press charges. Police said the value of the steaks was about $60.
A background check also revealed the two warrants for failing to appear at court hearings. Bernal couldn't come up with bail money, and he was transferred to the ACI at about 12:45 p.m.
URI Students Cited for Transportation of Alcohol
- Mia T. Nguyen, 20, of 40 Angell Road, Narragansett, was cited at about 8:28 p.m. on Sept. 22 and charged with transportation of alcohol by a minor. Police said Nguyen is a student at the University of Rhode Island.
According to police, Nugyen's car was observed swerving on Angell Road. A traffic stop was made near Sewell Road.
Police said that Nguyen claimed to have swerved to avoid hitting a cat. However, police noted two 12-packs of beer – Moosehead Lager and Samuel Adams Fall Seasonal – by the feet of a passenger.
- Laura J. Sundberg, 20, of 7 Davisville Lane, Narragansett, was cited at about 10:02 p.m. on Sept. 22 and charged with transportation of alcohol by a minor. Police said Sundberg is a student at the University of Rhode Island.
According to police, an officer driving behind Sundberg's car on Point Judith Road near John Street observed that it had a defective rear plate light. A traffic stop was made near Fisherman's Memorial Campground.
Police said that during the stop, Sundberg appeared to be very nervous. When asked if there was any alcohol in the car, she initially told police no, before allegedly stating yes when asked a second time.
According to police, a bottle of Barefoot Pinot Grigio was confiscated. Sundberg was cited and allowed to drive from the scene.
The beer was confiscated, and Nguyen was cited for the alcohol.
Unless otherwise noted, the information for this article was compiled from Narragansett police reports, which are available for review by any member of the public at their headquarters on Caswell Street.

April is esophageal cancer awareness month. More than 20 states including New York have designated this month to esophageal cancer awareness. People are urged to see their doctors if they suspect that they have acid reflux.
"Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can cause stomach acid to splash into the esophagus, producing cellular changes that can ultimately result in cancer," said Klaus Thaler, MD, Director of Minimally Invasive Surgery at Hudson Valley Hospital Center. "It's important for people with GERD to be evaluated by a physician because early detection is key to dealing with any form of cancer."
Dr. Thaler and Dr. Eric Teitel will hold a patient education seminar on the symptoms of GERD or Acid Reflux on May 7 from 10-11:30 a.m. The free program is being held at the Westchester Medical Practice offices at 2050 Saw Mill River Road, Yorktown Heights, 2nd floor. A light breakfast will be served.
Dr. Thaler's clinical work and research focus is laparoscopic and endoscopy surgery of the digestive tract including single incision laparoscopy and Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES). Dr. Thaler's work is published in over one hundred peer reviewed papers and six books and he has given more than 50 lectures at national and international societies in recent years.
Dr. Teitel, a gastroenterologist and Chairman of the Department of Medicine at Hudson Valley Hospital Center, said later this month, the Hospital is expected to add a new high- resolution mapping system that will aid in the detection and diagnosis of diseases of the esophagus.
Currently only 1 in 5 people diagnosed with esophageal cancer live five years or longer. "That's because often times the disease is not diagnosed until the later stages," said Teitel. "That is why it is so important to be properly evaluated."
As many as 15 million Americans experience heartburn every day. About 3 million Americans currently have Barrett's Esophagus, a pre-cancerous condition that greatly increases the chances of developing esophageal cancer. Often esophageal cancer is not discovered until it has reached advanced stages.

3. Library Receives Nearly 3,000 Survey Responses
Almost 3,000 people completed the LibQUAL+ survey, generating an overall response rate of 35 percent and a faculty response rate of 54 percent.
The survey results will be used to improve services and develop new ways for the library to meet the needs of active and latent users. Results will also be mapped to a national dataset, enabling the library to benchmark its activities against demographic and aspirational peers.
"The library did not embark upon this survey project to defend the status quo," said Julie Blair, LibQUAL+ primary investigator and the strategic initiatives librarian. "We are committed to making changes in services and resources based on real data, not assumptions. To that end, all comments, even negative ones, are taken seriously and are appreciated."
"Thank you to the almost 3,000 survey respondents willing to help the library help you," Blair added. "We hope you do not wait for another survey to share your ideas, insights and suggestions."
You can email your suggestions at any time to
or contact library staff directly.
The library gave an iPad2 to a randomly selected survey participant. Andrew Klescewski, a third-year undergraduate in environmental engineering, is the lucky winner.
4. MTU Preschool Announces New Fundraiser
MTU Preschool will host "Bounce-O-Rama," an event with a variety of activities for all ages, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 12, in the SDC Multi-Purpose Room.
It is the time of year that parents start wondering how to keep their kids entertained, especially on the weekends. The snow hasn't begun to fall and kids seem like they are bouncing off the walls. That was the inspiration for MTU Preschool's inaugural fundraiser.
"It is a healthy, fun way for kids to burn off their energy while raising money for a good cause," according to Megan Johnson, event chairperson.
"MTU Preschool was trying to come up with a new idea to raise money, and the Bounce-O-Rama was created. In the spring MTU Preschool hosts the Cabin Fever Carnival, and this Bounce-O-Rama provides an fun event in the fall," added Johnson.
With a toddler area, children's obstacle course, Velcro wall, bounce houses and slides there will be something there for kids of all ages. "This Saturday also happens to be the day many dads head off to deer camp, so we are hoping that moms will take this opportunity to do something fun with the children," said Johnson.
Tickets for the event will be sold at the door. Day passes for children 5 through adult are $10, children under five are $7 and individual tickets will be 50 cents per ticket. The SDC snack bar will also be open for families to purchase lunch.
Proceeds from the event will benefit MTU Preschool, which is a not for profit preschool.
For more information, contact MTU Preschool at 487-2720.
5. Reception Friday for Mary Ann Beckwith Show in the Rozsa Gallery
The public is invited to join Professor Mary Ann Beckwith (VPA) at a reception 6 to 8 p.m., Friday, Nov. 11, as she opens a retrospective of her work, "Images Now and Then."
Beckwith, a professor in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts, may be best known for her watercolors. Among her many honors, she has been elected to the Watercolor Honor Society of Watercolor USA and has had a gallery dedicated in her name at Central Michigan University.
A recipient of the Distinguished Teaching Award, Beckwith has been on the Michigan Tech faculty for 38 years and is committed to sharing the artist's experience with students of all disciplines.
"Painting and helping others to experience painting still gives me a flutter in my stomach, a kind of lightheaded joy and satisfaction like that of a thirst quenched," she says. "I love the stages of painting, all the stages. That pristine white surface and the vision of what might be, the first bits of color or lines, and then, slowly, the awareness that this whole process might be beyond my control."
"Images Now and Then" will be on display in the Rozsa Center Nov. 11 to Jan. 27. Gallery hours are Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The exhibit is made possible by the James and Margaret Black Endowment.

Background: There is increasing interest on the part of investigators and the public at large in finding ways to study and improve treatments for the seriously mentally ill without exposing such individuals to unnecessary risks. One group of particular interest in this regard are patients suffering from acute mania. We set out to define "exit" criteria or novel clinical endpoints that might help to assess the efficacy of antimanic compounds. We sought a method that would be safer, more economical, and less sensitive to nonspecific factors in the clinical environment while still allowing unambiguous assessment of efficacy.
Method: From a pool of subjects being screened for or already participating in intervention studies, we retrospectively identified 76 admissions of patients with a manic or mixed episode according to DSM-IV. We fit a mixed-effects regression model to all available data obtained using the Bech-Rafaelsen Mania Scale from admission to day 28 of treatment. Using the estimated model coefficients, we obtained empirical Bayes (EB) estimates of each subject's trend coefficients based on (1) all available data and (2) data through day 11 of treatment for mania.
Results: We found a high correlation (r = .67) between EB estimates of final response at day 28 and actual day 28 scores on the Bech-Rafaelsen scale based on scores through day 11. When subjects were categorized as full, partial, or nonresponders according to their final Bech-Rafaelsen score, we were able to show that only 2 of the 23 predicted nonresponders became full responders, 27 of the 31 predicted full responders became full responders, and 16 of the 22 predicted partial responders became partial or full responders.
Conclusion: We conclude on the basis of this chart review study that it should be possible to define exit criteria for trials assessing the efficacy of antimanic compounds on the basis of relatively short duration exposure to experimental treatment.

Built around the turn of the nineteenth century, the sage and daffodil double frame house at 19 and 21 Union Street at one time faced the Charlestown Female Seminary. While the seminary is long gone, the house is probably now at its most glorious.
#19 recently had major renovations and, while #21 loses some of its sunlight to the brick house on its south side, its arched doorway opens to a brick walkway which leads to an enclosed yard behind a tilted gate.
Although the two houses share a common brick dividing wall, they differ in a way that sets them apart from any other attached house in Charlestown: they have two different roofs. While the roof over 19 Union is a straight gable, #21 has a gambrel roof, a style resembling a crooked finger.
There's no apparent reason for the differing styles but they evidently 'represent the original roof configuration.'
The historic marker assigns ownership to Jacob Forster and dates the house at 1798, when Charlestown was in its rebuilding stage after the devastation of the Battle of Bunker Hill. One by one, private homes were being built.
Jacob Forster
Jacob Forster moved to Charlestown in 1786, from Berwick, Maine. A maker of fine furniture, Forster opened a small cabinetmaking shop in Charlestown and then built a large furniture-making structure at the corner of Main and Union. The Forster furniture business, ultimately run by the Forster family, became a vital part of Charlestown business life. In the 1820s, Jacob Forster and Son even set up a cabinet shop inside the state prison.
According to Sawyer's history of Charlestown, Forster Furniture Makers had orders coming in from all parts of the existing United States. 'Almost every house in the town was made attractive by tasteful and thoroughly made chairs, sofas and tables purchased at the old corner store.'
Since it was built, the house at 19 & 21 Union Street has changed owners many times. Mary Lawrence sold #21 to Charles Perry, undertaker, for $3,500. Sergio Smith bought the house then sold it in 1870 for $3,650. Owners of #19 have included Rebecca Damon, James Harris and Daniel T. Mahoney. The current list price for 19 Union Street, according to territory.com is $1,069,000.
- Where is it? 19 & 21 Union Street
- When was it built? 1798-1810
- What was it built for and who was the first occupant? Jacob Forster is indicated as the first owner.
- Why was it built? as a family home
- How was it built? It is a wood frame double house, separated by a common brick wall.
- What are the future plans for the structure? Number 19 had considerable renovation in 2006 and in 2010. The houses are occupied and privately owned.
Information for this article was compiled from various research materials, including Old Charlestown by Timothy T. Sawyer; Boston Landmarks Commission; http://furniturehistory.wikispaces.com; http://www.territory.com/mlspin/71284302/19-union-street-charlestown-ma-02129.

BMW had last finished atop the rankings in 2010, according to the report, with Toyota taking the crown from 2006-2009. The highest-ranked American brand was Ford at seventh, trailing sixth-place Volkswagen. The top ten was filled out by Audi, Hyundai and Lexus. Toyota's drop was attributed to its production interruptions due to the natural disasters that affected all of the Japanese automakers last year, according to AN.
BMW's win among auto manufacturers was only enough to place it 23rd in the overall brand ranking, with an estimated brand value of $24.6 billion. Apple, the overall winner, according to the report, had a $182.9 billion valuation, ahead of IBM ($116 billion) and Google ($107.9 billion). Toyota's valuation was $21.8 billion, with Mercedes-Benz and Honda far behind at $16.1 billion and $12.7 billion respectively. No other carmaker had a valuation over $10 billion.
