Ripley County Community Foundation supporters gathered together July 8 at South Ripley Elementary School to review the past year and celebrate the future.
Executive director Sally Morris presented William Van Hook, Batesville, with the Executive Director's Award. He "is a true example of what a board member should be," she emphasized.
"He and his wife have started three different endowment funds .... He has served on various committees .... (and) he has never missed a board meeting even through some difficult times when his wife became ill and died .... and he had a stroke."
Program officer Jane Deiwert introduced scholarship winners. "This is the 12th year of the Lilly Endowment Scholarship Program. We have 18 graduates who have made it through the program."
Gerald Hardesty and Valorie Wagner, both Jac-Cen-Del High School graduates, were the 2009 recipients. Each will receive full tuition to an Indiana college and an $800 yearly stipend for required books and equipment.
"This year, we had about 75 applicants .... Every year it seems like we are getting more and more .... It was narrowed down to eight finalists." Those six 2009 graduates – Tess Kuntz, Oldenburg Academy; Chelsea Durham, South Ripley High School; Audrey Huffmeyer, Jac-Cen-Del High School; Ryan Hartman and Christopher Meyer, Batesville High School; and Clinton Covert, East Central High School – were recognized as Ripley County Community Scholars and were granted $1,000 scholarships.
The program officer read letters of gratitude from the two 2008 Lilly Endowment Scholarship winners, Tyler Giesting and Kellen Stolze, who were unable to attend.
Giesting, a DePauw University sophomore, is a cross country and track team member. He wrote that he is "technically undecided on a major .... I want to make sure I get it right." This winter, he will spend time studying in Germany.
He realized the "tremendous impact" of receiving the scholarship, "to graduate on my feet in 2012 .... I truly think about this opportunity every day, and it's not something I take lightly." Stolze echoed these thoughts in his letter.
Deiwert added, "It's just really exciting as these kids go off to school .... and rewarding to see them graduate and go out into the world and make a difference."
The foundation also awarded grants to nonprofit organizations in 2008. Jenny Darnold, grants committee chair, noted, "We had a unique request for an environmental grant .... We don't get those very often. It included additional funding, which we always like."
Big Oaks Conservation Society received $10,000 to renovate Old Timbers Lodge on the Jefferson Proving Ground. Society President Jim Leveille gave an overview of the facility's history and what the money will be used for.
Ed Scherer-Berry, marketing committee chair, explained the Kroger Neighborhood Rewards Promotion. Patrons can purchase a reloadable Kroger gift card from the RCCF.
"You put your grocery money on this card .... We're not asking you to spend any more than you normally do .... When you use this card to pay for your groceries at Kroger,"
the foundation receives 4 percent of every $5,000 spent.
Cards are available at the office located on the third floor of the Memorial Building on Main Street in Batesville.
Eight new funds were added to the foundation in 2008: William H. "Gus" and Mary Margaret Moorhead Scholarships, Tyson Library Seedling Fund, Historic Hoosier Hills Seedling Fund, Rural Alliance for the Arts/Elsa & Peter Soderberg Scholarship, Doris A. Brelage Memorial Nursing Scholarship, James E. and Ruth M. Wagner Memorial Scholarship Fund, Jack Kellerman Community Enhancement Fund and Grateful Families Seedling Fund.
Darnold announced, "The board of directors recognizes the importance of giving grants to the community. However, "no small grants are going to be awarded in 2009" and large grant requests will be limited to $2,500. "Priority will be given to grants that will benefit the community by eliminating human suffering."
An intent to apply form is required and must be returned to the RCCF by Friday, Aug. 14, at 4 p.m. Nonprofits interested in applying for these grants can download the form on the Web site (www.rccfonline.org) or call the office at 933-1098.
Diane Raver can be contacted at 812-934-4343, Ext. 114; or diane.raver@ batesvilleheraldtribune.com.

"I once decided not to date a guy because he wasn't excited to meet my dog. I mean, this was like not wanting to meet my mother." - Bonnie Schacter, Founder of the Single Pet Owner's Society Singles Group
"I once decided not to date a guy because he wasn't excited to meet my dog. I mean, this was like not wanting to meet my mother." - Bonnie Schacter, Founder of the Single Pet Owner's Society Singles Group
Ok this was a new one for me. I always thought that dogs were color blind. I don't know where I got that idea from, but it stuck. Looks like I was wrong all these years. Research conducted by Neitz J, Geist T, and Jacobs G H shows that while dogs see less color than we do, they are far from being unable to distinguish colors at all.
Apparently, dogs have a form of color blindness called deuteranopia which translates into red and green color blindness. So while they are able to clearly distinguish between say blue and yellow, they have trouble telling red from green.
Apparently, this is a bit like seeing the world at night. Dogs were not meant to rely on vision alone for their survival. They are meant to use a totality of their senses including smell and hearning, and that is why they haven't developed the detail and sharp eyesight that humans have. It's more important for them to detect motion.
Dog obstacle courses have blue and yellow themes for this reason. Nice to know that my canine companion doesn't see me as black and white!
We all know Denise Richards as the "Bond Girl" in "The World is not enough". She may not want to be remembered for that as she got the dubious award for the worst Bond Girl of all time!
Nonetheless, she has been consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful women in the world and she's chosen a French Bulldog to keep her company. His name is Hunk.
French Bulldogs are one of the best known apartment dogs. In fact, their flat nose, and body shape prevent them from effectively regulating their temperature outdoors. In spite of this, they are considered to be one of the healthiest Bull Breeds.
They are well known for their easy going ways and make ideal companions. Historically, though the breed has a French Prefix, they were mostly developed in the US and Britain. A common name for the breed is Frenchie!
Would you like to see similar cute French Bulldog puppies? Check out what Euro Puppy has to offer!
So, just what is a Miniature Bulldog? As there is often a grey area here, it's Important you know that there are Mini Bulldogs, and then there are Mini English Bulldogs. These types should not be confused with each other! The former being a cross/mix breed (Bulldog with Pug, Boston Terrier or/and French Bulldog) and the latter being a pure-bred English Bulldog, but just smaller in size. As you can see here, the big difference here lies in the keyword, English.
Mini or Miniature Bulldog crosses are usually 3-4 generations removed. This is to fine tune the trademark look of the Bulldog but in a more compact size. This variety is not yet recognised by any major association or kennel club such as FCI or AKC. This type is most often the shortest in the body and the more sporty, active rather than being a couch potato. Obviously the more squat, rambunctious Pug and Frenchie are having their influence here.
Mini or Miniature English Bulldogs are not a separate breed in itself. They come from registered English Bulldog parents. This poses the difficult question of how can I be sure/guaranteed that my puppy will be a Mini? To answer this, I would say that a major kennel club or association would need to start recognising the breed and set a standard that everyone has to adhere to and thus be able to register as an official Mini English Bulldog litter.
If you think you know enough already, please feel free to check out our available Miniature English Bulldog puppies. If you would like to learn more, please carry on reading below.
Okay, you're seriously thinking about buying a French Bulldog. But just before you do, you might want to take some of the following points into consideration to make sure you get the one that is the most suitable for you. After all, it's a big decision, and the better informed you are, the easier the choice.
Male or female?
Men are from Mars and Women from Venus, the gender issue. Although usually clownish and sweet, this breed can exhibit same-sex aggression. This is more likely to be with 2 intact and full-blooded males, but not totally limited to them. If you already have a male in the household you may think of getting a female, especially if he is a little dominant. This makes it not easy, but early socialization in the puppyhood will help to alleviate future problems whichever sex you decide on. Of course if there is a female and the male unneutered, you may have to keep them apart for certain times of the year if you catch my drift. As you know or will learn quickly, turn your back on them and they will take full advantage of the situation (Frenchies are opportunists).
Generally, males (even more so if intact) are a little more rambunctious than females. This suits many people as could be argued as having more character and get up and go. They are also considered as being nicer in look as the typical French bulldog traits are more pronounced (you will read more about this below).
Our super cute French Bulldog is having a wonderful time in Miami, FL. Check out Euro Puppy if you liked her.
Well, there are over 150 registered dog breeds. Apart from this, there are those that are purebred and not registered; designer-dogs and so many sizes, colors and temperaments of pavement specials that it is not an easy question to answer. Euro Puppy has done a bit of research. We collected 20 comments and made an analysis at the end of it:
•"It depends on a person who likes the dog...but for me, any breed as long as it makes you feel comfortable and can make it as your best friend."
•"The Border Collie is a truly great family dog and demonstrably is the most trainable for commands."
•"The Japanese Akita, besides being fiercely loyal, is definitely the strongest animal to protect your children against stray bears."
•"A wild mix of a shepherd dog with real wolf, or the coyote with a Keeshond! These wild mixes are truly the most perspicacious (keenly aware) due to their inherent advanced outdoor awareness (with a notably higher neurological brain stem) than any domesticated dog."
•"If you're truly an animal lover, it doesn't matter about which breed is the best."
•"They are ALL the best."
•"I have a French bulldog and I love that breed! I am not sure that I will ever have any dog after I lose this one, but if I do, that will be a French bulldog as well."
•"The best breed of dog for you depends on the distinctive characteristics that are important to you, the amount of time you can dedicate to the dog, the space available for the dog, your patience, type of food you lavish on the dog etc. Always think long-term when looking for a dog. A puppy that you have today will have different needs when it grows up. If you live in a apartment don't choose a energetic dog like a lab retriever. These dogs need lots of exercise and a decent amount of space to move around."
•"Golden Retrievers. They have everything Labradors have but are better looking with shinier fur!"
•"Labradors. They're super friendly, playful, easy to train, and friendly with children. They're also cute, and are a lot more fun than little Paris Hilton-ish purse dogs."
•"Weiners! They're Hilarious."
•"How big is your house? How big is your family? Do you have children? These and many other questions need to be answered to pick the right dog breed. However, a dog's personality is not only due to its breed, and mixes are usually better for many reasons. Go by a shelter and ask around. They will help you pick the best dog for your situation."
It is winter-time and you must take extra care of your dog. Just like your own skin needs more care and moisture, so does your dog need more care. Here are few tips for caring for your furry friend during winter:
- Make sure your dog has a dry, warm, doghouse that has a flap-type door and blankets to snuggle into.
- Make sure there is plenty of fresh water to drink. Keep water bowls free of snow and ice.
-The skin is drier and flakier during the winter months and you may notice a lusterless coat. If so, ask your vet about adding a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil to his food.
- Bring your dog into the house when the temperatures drop.
- Feed your dog a little more. They burn more calories in the cold, both to keep warm and because exercise is more strenuous when running through the snow. The more your dog is outside, the more extra fuel he'll need.
-Keep an eye on your dog when you take him outside. Cold-wind chills can cut through short fur. Pet sweaters and even boots can be used if need be. Leave plenty of freedom of movement for walking, running, playing. Don't leave him outside for too long.
-In case you see a dog outside alone in the cold try to inform the owner or any animal welfare agency.
Take good care of your dog this winter and have fun!

sinerma says: Best 4x game ever made that still rules the Civ genre.
sinerma says: Don't let the graphics fool you. MOO 1 is like MOO 2, but with less micromanagement. Give them both a chance and you might notice falling in love with the predecessor.
sinerma says: Combined with awesome sound track TA is truly the ancient king of RTS. The simplified resource economy (energy and mass, that will in end game be converted from each other) make battles massive. The multiplayer is possible through systems like Gameranger.
sinerma says: Beautiful platformer adventure. Did you know the whole game was made by one guy?
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

RALEIGH — A 22-year-old man broke into an apartment Monday evening and threatened to kill the resident if the man did not deliver $500 in cash or that value in crack cocaine by Tuesday, according to an arrest warrant sworn out by Raleigh police.
The warrant charged Kurt Deion Frederick with extortion and first-degree burglary.
The break-in happened between 7:30 and 8 p.m. in the 3800 block of Kelford Drive, according to the warrant.
An arrest report showed that police arrested Frederick shortly afterward at 3988 Neeley St., about three blocks away.
Police thought Frederick lived at the Neeley Street address, but he told booking officers at the Wake County Detention Center that he lives at 8304 Bridgefair Court in Fuquay-Varina.
Frederick was being held in lieu of $100,000 bail for a court appearance Tuesday.

Four members of the Cavalier women's basketball team have earned All ACC Honors. Monica Wright leads the pack with a second team All Conference award. She is the second team's top vote getter with 95. Wright is second in the ACC in scoring, and is this week's ACC Player of the Week, after scoring 28 points against Georgia Tech yesterday.

Aisha Mohammed earns honorable mention status. She is second in the conference with 12 double-doubles, and set a school record earlier this season with 21 rebounds in one game. This is Mohammed's first full season in a Cavalier uniform, after an injury sidelined her for all of last season.
Virginia earned a first round bye in this week's ACC Tournament. The Cavaliers will take the court on Friday at 11:00am as the fourth seed, and face the winner of the Georgia Tech vs. Miami match up.

Video: Taylor Swift Raps to Nicki Minaj's 'Super Bass'
Taylor Swift loves her some Nicki Minaj. The country crooner paid a recent visit to Nashville's 107.5 The River and when asked which song she wanted the radio station to play, she chose Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass," a track off the deluxe edition of Pink Friday.
"I've been listening to it on repeat and I really freak my friends out because I can recite every single lyric to the rap," revealed Swift.
While she prefers to perform it in the car, the DJ was able to coax her into rapping some of the lyrics in the studio. We think the head Barb would approve. See if you agree by watching below.

Manchester man jailed for best friend's death in fatal 2011 crash
Mathieu's mother, Lynette Shinsato, told Judge Kenneth McHugh how she asked John Mitchell, 25, to be the designated driver on the night of the Oct. 23, 2011 crash, and is struggling with forgiveness after Mitchell tried to trick police into thinking he was not behind the wheel.
"My faith and my belief system have been shaken," Shinsato said. "Will God forgive me for not forgiving the actions of another?"
Mitchell pleaded guilty to negligent homicide, aggravated drunken driving and reckless conduct on Nov. 29 for killing Mathieu and injuring another passenger. Mathieu was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, after Mitchell's 2006 Honda Civic went off of Old Manchester Road in Derry about 1:50 a.m., struck a tree and rolled over.
Assistant County Attorney Brad Bolton argued for a six- to 12-year sentence, saying the broken promise to Mathieu's mother, and Mitchell's claim of not being the driver warranted a longer-than-average prison term.
"That kind of shows you something - what type of character, what type of man he is," Bolton told McHugh in Rockingham County Superior Court.
Mitchell climbed into the back seat and maintained - even while at the hospital - that someone else drove the vehicle, Bolton said.
Another passenger, Brooke Scott, 20, was injured during the crash.
Anthony Mathieu was one of three brothers who served in the military during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. A 2005 graduate of Memorial High School in Manchester, Mathieu enlisted in the Marines and served two tours of duty in Iraq between 2007 and 2008.
He had been out of the service for two years, going to college at Southern New Hampshire University and working at his family business, Capital Auto Auction in Manchester, at the time of the crash, according to his mother.
Mitchell turned to Shinsato in court and apologized for his actions, saying she and Mathieu had been like a second family to him.
"To say I left a brother behind, I can't refute that," he said, "but I loved Anthony, no matter what my poor judgment shows. For the rest of my life, I will love him."
McHugh spoke about the challenges he has faced in crafting sentences for negligent homicide cases during his 35 years on the bench, especially when there was no intent to end someone's life.
He said if he knew that a 50-year sentence would bring Mathieu back, "I would impose that sentence. That would probably be true justice."
McHugh said while a four-year minimum might sound like a light punishment to some, "Mr. Mitchell will be associated with a whole of bad people. It's not a lifestyle he is used to."

Complaints Meet Reagan's Radio Hall Of Fame Honor
Radio Hall Of Fame Inducts Former Pres
Did you really believe Ronald Reagan could win an award without someone crying foul?
Earlier today, the Radio Hall Of Fame named the late president and several other early broadcast pioneers as 2011 inductees.
From the Chicago-based organization's press release (as distributed by Premiere Radio Networks):
Ronald Reagan, Graham McNamee, H.V. Kaltenborn, and classic programs Gangbusters, Suspense, and The Great Gildersleeve to be recognized
The National Radio Hall of Fame (NRHOF) announced its Class of 2011 today that includes a who's who of early radio pioneers ---as well as the only radio broadcaster ever to become President of the United States. The induction ceremony and national broadcast will take place on Saturday, November 5th in Chicago.
The 2011 inductees into America's only National Radio Hall of Fame inductees are:
Ronald Reagan – The 40th president of the United States who was born in Tampico, Illinois and who began his storied career in broadcasting as an Iowa radio sportscaster where be once announced Chicago Cubs games for WOC/Davenport, Iowa and WHO/Des Moines, Iowa.
Graham McNamee – A sports casting legend, McNamee gained national prominence and was radio's most recognized national personality in its inaugural decade.
H.V. Kaltenborn – The premier news commentator of radio's first great era, the Milwaukee, Wisconsin native was on the air for more than 30 years. He was America's first national radio commentator and was one of the first newsreaders to provide analysis and insight into current news stories.
WLS National Barn Dance – First broadcast in 1924, it was the first acclaimed country music show in radio history –a direct precursor of the Grand Ole Opry.
Because of the powerful clear-channel signal of WLS/Chicago, the program was heard throughout the Midwest and the South where its popularity launched many music careers and led to a music format that has dominated radio for over eight decades.
The Great Gildersleeve – One of radio's earliest spin-off programs, the series was built around Throckmorton Philharmonic Gildersleeve, a bombastic character with a remarkable ensemble cast that was first introduced to radio audiences as a staple on the Fibber McGee and Molly show, also a Radio Hall of Fame inductee (1989).
Gangbusters - The iconic radio crime drama series that dramatized FBI cases and was produced in close association with Bureau director J. Edgar Hoover during the great American crime wave of the 1930s.
Suspense - One of the most compelling radio dramas of all time, this program from the Golden Age of Radio was subtitled "radio's outstanding theater of thrills" and focused on suspense, thriller-type scripts and featured the leading Hollywood actors of the era.
Extended biographies of the inductees as well as audio clips can be found at www.RadioHOF.org
The 2011 selections were made by the 27 members of the National Radio Hall of Fame Steering Committee, a diverse group of radio executives, historians, academics and civic leaders.
In making the announcement, Bruce DuMont, Chairman of the NRHOF Steering Committee, said "Many of the stars and shows that defined the medium in its infancy have been unfortunately overlooked in public balloting. This year, as we move into our new home, the Committee wanted to be sure to recognize the pioneers that time passed by but whose accomplishments must not be forgotten. The Radio Hall of Fame class of 2011 gives us a solid foundation upon which to build."
So what's the beef with this year's class? Apparently, public voting was "suspended" for 2011 so the organization's board could directly induct some of radio's earliest voices without the usual ballot-stuffing antics designed to benefit contemporary performers (as in on-air campaigning).
Another gripe observed today: Howard Stern has yet to be admitted.
Rush Limbaugh, by the way, was inducted in 1993, Neal Boortz in 2009 and Art Bell in 2008.
At TimeOut Chicago, longtime broadcast reporter Robert Feder complained about the changes and used the occasion to take potshots:
Considering Reagan's modest career in radio before he went on to Hollywood and politics, his induction is likely to generate controversy. This year marked the 100th anniversary of Reagan's birth. He died in 2004.
During his presidency, his most memorable use of radio may have been just before a Saturday morning broadcast in August 1984 when Reagan joked during a microphone check: "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes."
But to those who've studied Reagan's early years, we know that he had a great passion for broadcasting and fought hard to gain acceptance in the medium. He's the only radio announcer to later achieve the presidency.
For more on Reagan's broadcast years, see this collection of historical links and tidbits.
Let's get real: opposition is based on partisan politics, otherwise, Reagan most certainly deserves to be recognized by the radio industry for his early accomplishments.

There is no one outside of Ken Ulman's inner circle, or perhaps even outside of Ken Ulman himself, who can say for a definitive fact that Ken Ulman is running for governor of Maryland in 2014. But that doesn't stop people from saying it.
People have been spreading rumors since Cain said he didn't know where God could find Abel, and handicapping political races since an Athenian dropped the first stone.
Last March, in a post titled " Governor Ulman," Ellicott City resident Dennis Lane, who writes the Tales of Two Cities blog, called an Ulman bid for governor "the worst kept secret in HoCo loco politico circles."
Since then, bloggers and news organizations across the state have followed suit.
In August, writer David Moon inserted Ulman into his estimations on Maryland Juice, a blog about Maryland politics.
In November, an invitation to a fundraiser benefiting the Friends of Ken Ulman circulated online, billed as "the first opportunity to support Ken," who "now desires to attain the Governor's seat for Maryland."
Within days, the Baltimore Sun ran an article that used the Ulman event as a springboard for a discussion on campaign fundraising. According to the article, Ulman and other potential gubernatorial candidates—comptroller Peter Franchot and Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown—have hired professional fundraisers for the race which cost Gov. Martin O'Malley $10 million in 2010.
And the prognostications have begun in earnest across the Howard County blogosphere.
Tom Coale, who aggregates and analyzes regional news in his blog HocoRising, predicted where gubernatorial hopefuls would find support across the state, in a Jan. 11 post entitled " The Race for Second Place." According to Coale, "the winner of the primary will be whomever can grab the most votes in their 'home base' and get second place in as many other counties as possible."
But does the county executive read these blogs? Does he know about the concerns of Patch commenters, Twitter followers and Facebook stalkers? Does venting one's spleen online make a difference?
"Generally, I'm aware of what's being said online," said Ulman in a phone interview this week. "I'm big on social media."
Ulman admitted he can't read every word that's put out there but said that he and his staff pay close attention to the rumors swirling around the local watering holes.
"We work hard not to get caught up in [negative comments]," said Ulman. He noted that constructive criticism will not be deleted from his Facebook page.
Facebook criticism ranges from opposition to Ulman attending a menorah lighting ("I am opposed to all public religious observances, and would prefer that my elected officials observe their holidays privately, thank you," wrote one citizen on Dec. 21) to pleas for improved transportation for seniors.
Social media "gives people a voice," said Ulman, pointing to the blizzards of last winter as a success for his social media presence. Through the Ken Ulman and Howard County Twitter feeds, the public could see everything from power outages to snow plow locations (although not, perhaps, simultaneously) in near-real time.
"We're one of the in the country," said Ulman.
As such, Howard County citizens also expect a lot of their media outlets, and blogs are helping fill roles formerly met by the bastions of traditional media.
Ulman recalled being asked to lunch by editors from The Washington Post, only to be told they were closing their Howard County office. Howard County wouldn't be forgotten, he was told, but it was clear large media outlets were retreating from local coverage to concentrate on national issues.
Today, if you go to the Washington Post's online Howard County section, you'll see headlines from 2005. It's the journalistic equivalent of a ghost town. If you go to the " Local" section for Howard County, headlines feature Alexandria, VA, and Washington, D.C.
Blogs, on the front line of community involvement, act as forums where local issues can be discussed in depth and with a passion not found on the pages of a large newspaper. It would be difficult to thoroughly dissect the pros and cons of turf fields during an evening newscast, for instance, or find the column inches needed to break down every possibility in a local school board race, but there will be a blogger addressing the issue to your satisfaction—and beyond.
Kirsten Coombs, a Columbia resident and frequent Patch and blog reader, said she found value in the depth of local coverage provided by less orthodox forms of media.
"I hope that social media looks at issues that are bigger than just 'Will he raise my taxes?'" said Coombs. "Newspapers like the [Washington Post] or [Baltimore Sun] aren't going to focus more than a few inches a day on [a local] race and it'll likely focus on the name-calling part of the race with little room on substance."
Citizens, more than ever, have a way for their voice to be heard, to engage their representatives and know that the message is being heard. Although it may increase the "torches and pitchforks" attitude, as Coale says, it's also "good for honest government and community involvement."
Ulman reads local blogs, and hey, he might be governor some day. For the record, the rumor of a gubernatorial run remains, for the moment, just that.
"I'm looking very hard at it," said Ulman, but for now, he will "just keep doing what I'm doing."
The gubernatorial primary is June 24, 2014.

On a recent trip to Kigali, Rwanda in search of local music, producer Ian Brennan (recently of Kyp Malone's Rain Machine) happened upon the gents in The Good Ones and quickly proceeded to record the songs on their Dead Oceans debut Kigali Y' Izahabu. Sung in the predominant Kinyarwanda and tucked in by a couple acoustic guitars and the soft pat of someone's shoe, The Good Ones' three-man harmonies are about as slack and welcoming as any porch-recorded music you've heard. "Sara," the first song made available from their November-released album, is quintessential and incidentally the first song on the album as well. If we weren't fully aware of our office surroundings at all times, this might make us think the humid AC was actually a nice breeze. Go outside and enjoy this and check the album cover after the jump.

Sakalauskas, 21, abandoned his vehicle after hitting a cement support under the overpass because he did not have a valid driver's license. He was charged with not having a valid driver's license, failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, and leaving the scene of an accident. He was released to appear in court.

Secret Garden, Ding Fei Fei and Ding Wei opens New Vision Festival
A cross-cultural collaboration that creates a new world order in music! The New Vision Arts Festival opens next month (October) with a concert featuring the Secret Garden, the legendary combo from Scandinavia, and two top musicians from mainland China, Ding Fei Fei and Ding Wei.
Their special performance not only marks the opening of the festival, but also rounds off Secret Garden's China tour.
Secret Garden with its distinguished blend of Celtic and Nordic sounds, is acclaimed for its refreshing and serene music-scape. Secret Garden's composer/keyboardist Rolf Lovland and violinist Fionnuala Sherry are heading for Hong Kong with their six-member band.
The Mainland's own international chart-topper, Ding Fei Fei, and her equally gifted sister, Ding Wei, are accompanied by some of the Mainland's top band musicians in the show.
Apart from taking turns on the stage, Secret Garden and the Ding Sisters will also collaborate on their signature tunes such as Secret Garden's "Nocturne" and Ding Fei Fei's "My Irish Friend".
The Ding Sisters will, for the first time, team up with special guest, operatic virtuoso Warren Mok.
Switching from violin to erhu and back, the opening concert promises to be a fusion of European and Chinese musical styles.
Lovland and Sherry are the leading members of Secret Garden. Lovland graduated from the Norwegian Institute of Music. He had won a Norwegian Grammy Award and the National radio chart's Song of the Year Award. Sherry graduated from Trinity College in Dublin.
After winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1995 with "Nocturne", Secret Garden launched their first album, "Songs from a Secret Garden", that topped the prestigious Billboard New Age charts in the US for two years. Secret Garden has gone on to produce five best-selling albums and has toured throughout Asia, Europe, South America and the US. They have also collaborated with orchestras including the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra and the Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra in Norway.
Ding Fei Fei, an erhu major graduate from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, launched her career as a singer-songwriter in 2000 with great success. The British group Way Out West remixed her original hit "Forgotten Moon", making her the first Chinese artist to have a hit in the British singles chart. Fei Fei's current album, "Origin", has also captured critical acclaim.
Ding Wei, after graduating from the conducting and composition department of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, pursued a career in popular music. Her original number "Girl and String Quartet" received many prizes in 2000. Her latest album, "Dear Ding Wei", melds influences such as flamenco, electronica and unplugged, classical string quartet and world music.
New Vision Arts Festival's opening concert featuring Secret Garden, Ding Fei Fei and Ding Wei will be performed at 8pm on October 19 and 20 at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Grand Theatre.

Original recipe yields 6 servings
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat; lightly oil the grill.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well.
- While pasta is cooking, grill the chicken breast halves until the meat is no longer pink in the middle and the juices run clear, 5 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Allow to rest for about 5 minutes, then slice into bite-size pieces; keep warm.
- In a large salad bowl, lightly toss together the grilled chicken, hot cooked linguine, romaine, green pepper, red onion, and cucumber.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together safflower oil, cider vinegar, sugar, poppy seeds, dry mustard powder, and green onions until smooth and evenly blended. Pour the dressing over the salad to serve.

I made this recipe with a bit of a twist using bowtie pasta and bottled poppy seed dressing. I also deleted the cucumbers because I do not care for them in salads. The onion and green pepper provided just enough flavor with the creamy poppy seed dressing. It was fantastic and my husband loved it! It is a great summer meal.
Very good mix of flavors. I will half the sugar next time, just a bit sweet for my taste. This salad was a huge hit at the last BBQ.

Rushville Republican
John T. Ketchum, 85, a lifelong Rushville resident, passed away Sunday, Dec. 30, 2012 in Greensburg.
He was born Jan. 8, 1927 in Rushville to Wooden Curtis and Stella (Snider Perry) Ketchum. He married Evelyn Nixon Nov. 16, 1952; she preceded him in death Oct. 20, 2010.
John was drafted into the US Army during World War II. He served in Japan with Company B 184th infantry. After returning to Rushville following the service, John graduated from Rushville High School in 1948.
He had quite a work ethic, never missing one day of work because of sickness. John delivered newspapers in Rushville as a boy, acquired top salesman status selling US War Bonds and for 30 years he delivered milk for Barnett's Hoosier Dairy on a residential milk route in Rushville. He later worked at Dana Corporation in Rushville and Indiana Gear Works in Indianapolis. He was a parts runner for Rodefeld's Napa before he finally retired.
John was a deacon at First Baptist Church in Rushville where he had been a member for over 40 years. He was a member of Rushville American Legion Post #150. He took great pride in never getting any kind of traffic citation or having any kind of run in with the law. John had a very gentle nature and was very much a people person.
He is survived by his sons, John W. and wife Ricki Ketchum of Shelbyville, Kenny and wife Vanessa Ketchum of Rushville and Steve Ketchum and companion Amanda of Rushville; daughters, Rhonda and husband Allen Cohee of Rushville and Faith and husband Randy Sizemore of Connersville; 19 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
Besides his parents and wife, John was preceded in death by brothers, infant baby Jim, Ben, Loren, Bill, Bob and Charles; sisters, Louise and Edna; and half sister, Leota McIllwain.
Services will be at 10 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 3 at First Baptist Church in Rushville where friends are welcome to visit from 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 2. Pastor Phil Hodgkins will preside. Burial will be in Rushville's East Hill Cemetery. The Rush County Veteran's Honor Guard will provide military rites.
Memorial contributions may be made to Alzheimer's research.
Moster Mortuary, Rushville, entrusted with arrangements.

One of the best known types of yarn, Icelandic wool or Lopi is used to make sweaters that have a long-lasting and classic appeal. This 100% pure wool yarn is lighter, warmer, and more water-resistant than yarns from elsewhere, as the long-coated native Icelandic sheep have developed over time to ensure as much protection as possible from the harsh northern climate, giving the wool its special properties. With over sixty-five gorgeous designs, there are patterns for a range of garments for the whole family—from variations on the traditional Icelandic yoked sweaters to smaller projects such as wooly hats, socks, and scarves, to stunning lacy garments and other more contemporary designs—all knit in different weights of Icelandic wool. For all of the patterns complete step-by-step instructions are paired with easy-to-follow lace and color knitting charts, and all the stitches, techniques, and abbreviations you need—including how to work two-color knitting—and more are in the back. Beautifully photographed in Iceland and created in collaboration with Iceland's largest wool manufacturer, Ístex, the book includes a brief history on the emergence of the Icelandic Lopi sweater and the Icelandic wool industry.
Knitting with Icelandic Wool is an exceptional resource for all knitters looking for new designs or traditional styles with a modern twist to make in this uniquely lightweight bulky yarn known as Lopi.

With another year of property tax hikes on the horizon and possible slashes to school programs, the North Kingstown Town Council and School Committee held their budget hearings Monday night at the high school.
The preliminary budget for fiscal 2013 (starting July 1) projects a — raising it from $17.26 per thousand to $17.81. For the average priced home in North Kingstown (approximately $333,822), that would result in a $5,942 tax bill.
"I can't afford any more taxes. I'm not rich. I'm not wealthy," said State Rep. Doreen Costa, who told the town council during public comment that she has a and works at a restaurant on Friday nights, in addition to her duties at the State House.
Rollingwood Drive resident Jeff Zucchi and his wife moved to North Kingstown five years ago from Indiana after doing their "due diligence" and comparing taxes between the two states. What the Zucchis didn't factor in, he said, was the local taxes, which Zucchi said are now prompting them to reassess living in North Kingstown.
"We would like to stay, but the numbers continue to go against us," said Zucchi.
Local taxes were also an issue for another resident, but for a very different reason.
"Sometimes, I don't think I pay enough taxes," said Gigi Edwards of Saunderstown. "How much are my taxes maybe going to go up to save something that we as a community really need and want to keep?"
Under the preliminary budget, no services would be slashed, and the school department would get its requested 4 percent increase. According to Superintendent Phil Auger's projections, if the school department is level-funded again this year, the district's elementary school . According to Auger, anything less than a 4 percent increase would "significantly impact" the school department's ability to provide extracurricular programs.
"We're talking about 4 percent," said Jennifer Johnson, a mother of a North Kingstown High School student. "Are our kids not worth 4 percent?"
"When we spend money on schools, that's not money that's wasted," said resident Gregory Blasbalg. "That's an investment."
The school department's and also came up during the hearing as Dick Bee lambasted both the Town Council and School Committee for "allowing the schools to get into this position." Bee also called for Auger to be removed as superintendent of the district.
"Please put an end to his Napoleonic actions," said Bee.
Not all speakers were critical of Auger's job performance. Among the approximately 100 audience members, 20 North Kingstown High School students sat in the second row. Almost half of them took to the microphone, including Auger's children, Jim and Emily.
"I'm really, really proud of my dad," said Emily Auger.
Students, including Auger's children, urged both the council and School Committee to preserve the schools' extracurricular programs, including its robust music program. Last weekend, the , taking home eight awards.
"If you cut any of these things it will take opportunities away from kids, not only to vent how they feel or how to express themselves," said NKHS student Dan Caramante. "It'll strip them of a post-high school opportunity, like a scholarship at a college."
Another student, junior Jessica Fournier, suggested cuts at the administrative levels or the suspension of cost of living adjustments (COLA). Following the School Committee's public hearing, members of the board praised the students' poise and ability to articulate their points before a "group of adults."
"You kids are amazing," said committee member John Boscardin. "I never would have had the gumption, the desire or the guts to stand up and speak the way you've spoken this evening."
"It's always easier to build a boy or girl than to repair a man or a woman," said committee member Melvoid Benson.

By Ted Braun
Chronicle contributor
Our political campaign's moment of judgment has finally arrived. In a few days we'll know the outcome of it all. But will it make any difference in the major problems before us: our massive Wall Street bailouts, continuing foreign wars, a bloated military budget, tax breaks for the rich, off-shoring of jobs and assets, growing economic inequality, skyrocketing debts, and the climate warming that seems to be having such an effect this week on our east coast?
There is one new factor that has significantly influenced this last round of campaigning. In the aftermath of the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling that money is free speech, the role of wealthy people and shadowy front groups has grown and the role of average citizens has shrunk. When very wealthy individuals or groups can come to dominate a political discourse, and when such political forces can determine a tax structure to make it more beneficial for themselves and less so for everyone else, it gives evidence that the democratic process is unraveling. There are increasing signs that we no longer live in a democracy but a plutocracy.
For this campaign season we've now run out of time. We won't have time to debate the virtues of Bain Capital, the model of venture capitalism preferred by Mitt Romney. Bain has absorbed, downsized, and chopped up business firms, outsourcing jobs to China, gifting CEOs with huge financial rewards, and helping them protect their assets in safe harbors such as in the Cayman Islands. Ask the people who used to work for Sensata Technologies in Freeport, Illinois, what they think of Bain Capital. They were even forced to train their Chinese replacements.
We won't have time to debate the economic importance of contraception for women, or the theology in back of Indiana senatorial candidate Richard Mourdock's comments on rape and impregnation: "Life is a gift from God. I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen." It is often stated that we should not mix politics and religion, but that kind of theology will wreck politics for sure. Both Romney and Ryan continue to endorse Mourdock, a train wreck in the making.
We won't have time to debate our nation's drone program or our government's claim that it has the arbitrary right to kill anyone on earth deemed to be a terrorist or an enemy combatant. Every Tuesday President Obama and a group of military and intelligence advisors gather at the White House to draw up such a list of people to be killed all over the world. Unfortunately, many civilians have been killed through this program—people who have gathered for weddings, funerals, or just for neighborly conversation, but who have looked suspicious to the person piloting the drone above from a base on another continent. This has greatly increased widespread hatred against our nation whenever it has occurred.
This past week the United Nations' special rapporteur on counterterrorism and human rights, Ben Emmerson, announced that the Human Rights Council at the UN will likely initiate an investigation into civilian deaths caused by the CIA and US military's use of drones and other targeted killing programs. If certain allegations against the US prove true, he will consider them serious enough to be called "war crimes."
Emmerson said, "The global war paradigm has done immense damage to a previously shared international consensus on the legal framework underlying both international human rights law and international humanitarian law violations... It has also given a spurious justification to a range of serious human rights and humanitarian law violations."
Unfortunately, both Obama and Romney have supported our nation's drone war. On other issues, however, it has often been hard to get clarity on Romney's varying positions. In the primaries, to court Tea Party support, he may have announced one position, but in running as the Republican Party's choice, he often supported a contradictory position as evidenced in his comments concerning Romneycare, Obamacare, equal pay for equal work, and other issues. We do know that the future of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid will be decided on Election Day.
One of our biggest challenges after Judgment Day will be to share ideas about what it means to be a critical, engaged, and constructive member of society: how we understand ourselves, our relationship to others, and our relationship to the world. As media scholar Nick Couldry has argued, "This means reclaiming a discourse of ethics and morality, elaborating a new model of democratic politics, and developing fresh analytical concepts for understanding and engaging the concept of the social. The social has to be reconfigured so as to eliminate a market-driven project that individualizes responsibility while also eliminating claims made in the name of democracy. Reclaiming a democratic notion of the subject goes hand-in-hand with reinventing a new understanding of social conditions, civic responsibility, and critical citizenship."
Let's see how Judgment Day turns out.

Supernatural season 8 premieres on the CW on October 3, and while there are still some mysteries remaining about what's coming up, some spoilers have been released about some of the cases that Sam and Dean will have to deal with. The latest is about one of the early episodes of the season.
SPN Season 8 Episode 4 Spoilers and Title
According to SpoilerTV, the fourth episode of the season is titled "Bitten" and "will feature Kate, a possible recurring guest who is described as a pretty coed," along with "a character called Michael who falls in love with Kate but their relationship is hindered by a supernatural force." There's also "Brian, Michael's best friend who hates Michael's relationship with Kate." Finally, there's "a college professor named Ludensky, who has a secret past."
With a title like "Bitten," it certainly sounds like this Supernatural season 8 episode is going to have something to do with vampires or werewolves, both creatures that are no stranger to the CW drama. Could Ludensky be where it all begins? Then there's the matter of the Kate, Michael, and Brian. Could Brian be the monster-of-the-week and what the Winchesters will have to deal with? Could it all be fueled by his hatred of his best friend's relationship? Is this going to turn out to be yet another love triangle, or is there something else going on? In the Comic-Con press room, Ben Edlund (video here) had previewed an episode involving vampires coming up, but is this it?
