On 29 November 2012, Kenya's Prime Minister, the Right Honourable Raila Odinga, joined His Highness the Aga Khan at the signing of an agreement to rehabilitate Nairobi City Park.
The 60-hectare park, which has suffered over time from encroachment, pollution and other threats, will be rehabilitated over a period of several years. It will include a new restaurant, educational facilities, a botanical garden, an exhibition ground, an open air theatre and sports facilities. The works will also improve the site's amenities and public safety, as well as provide the necessary infrastructure to maintain the natural and cultural heritage of the park.
With 10 park and garden projects now in its portfolio, AKTC has demonstrated that even in the most challenging contexts, parks can have a positive impact on a city if they are restored and maintained. In several locations, AKTC has demonstrated that, under the right conditions, parks and gardens can also be economic generators that drive – directly and indirectly – a broad advance of positive change.

It was a result Don Garst would have loved. The late flagman, who always enjoyed seeing a variety of winners and rooted for the underdog, was smiling somewhere as Derrick Brown emerged a surprise winner of the feature race that bore his name. Brown, the $1000 winner in the BSB Manufacturing IMCA Modified feature, was joined in Victory Lane by Kyle Vanover (Heinen Repair Service IMCA Stock Cars), Kyle Olberding (Kansas National Guard IMCA NorthernSport Mods), and Brandon Johnson (BuyRaceParts.com IMCA Hobby Stocks).
The front row for the BSB IMCA Modified $1000 to win feature looked pretty Brown at the green, as Derrick Brown on the pole was flanked by Scott Brown. Scott has previously won Thunder Hill IMCA Modified features; Derrick had not. The younger Brown, however, was not to be denied as he streaked out to the lead from his pole starting position and never looked back on his way to the biggest win of his career. Behind him, defending National Champion Jordan Grabouski was working his way forward from his 10th starting post, but finding the going tough. Fellow fifth-row starter Bryan Rigsby was pushing forward as well. The twosome were able to get past everyone but Brown's quick #63, and at the finish, Brown was the big winner followed by Grabouski, Rigsby, Nic Bidinger, and Great Bend resident Jesse Richter.
Kyle Vanover has been the man to beat in the Heinen Repair Service IMCA Stock Cars this year, and so far no one has been able to beat him. Vanover continued to run the table Saturday night, picking up the extra money put up by BuyRaceParts.com and the feature win. He was chased by fellow Nebraskan Tyler Phelps, who settled for second. Phelps was followed by Jim Powell Jr., Eric Weyer, and Greg Deters.
Xtreme Motor Sports put up extra bucks for the Kansas National Guard IMCA Northern Sport Mod feature, and Kyle Olberding and Bryan LaRiviere were both determined to win it. LaRiviere, last year's IMCA Northern Sport Mod National Champion, took the fight to Olberding, who is mounting a strong defense of his 2011 track title. The two battled as they did two weeks ago, but this week, the result was different. Olberding took the checkered with LaRiviere following, while Eddie Schwope Jr. continued to return to form with a third place finish. Fourth went to Tyler Sutton, with Jesse Shotts rounding out the top five.
The Garst family also put up extra bucks for the BuyRaceParts.com IMCA Hobby Stock feature, and it brought the biggest field of the season in this class. The battle ended up being between two Nebraskans, with Brandon Johnson prevailing over Adam Armstrong. Waylon Banks had his best run of the year with a third place finish, with Ryan Gilland fourth and Tyler Garst taking a well deserved fifth.
The Xtreme Motor Sports Clash on the Hill continues Saturday Night, May 26. Gates open at 5:00 PM, driver's meeting at 6:30, hotlaps and races to follow. Adult General Admission is $10.00, kids 12 and under are free. Coolers are allowed (Canned beer only – no glass bottles) for a $10 charge. Pitpasses are $25.00.

A tax audit will be much less worrisome if you prepare for it.
From the Nolo Small Business Center
Who's afraid of being audited by the IRS? Most everyone. The key to surviving an audit -- and even coming out on top -- is not to panic, but to prepare. If you go it alone, before meeting the auditor, thoroughly review the tax returns being audited. Be ready to explain how you or a tax return preparer came up with the figures. If you can't, then head for the preparer or another tax pro. Pinpoint problems backing up income sources or expense deductions. Research tax law, if necessary. You'll need to legally show your right to take tax deductions or other tax benefits claimed on your return.
Find all records that substantiate your tax return. As discussed, the IRS has a right to look at any records used to prepare your tax return. Organize your records for the auditor in a logical fashion.
Neatness counts. Forget about dumping a pile of receipts before an auditor and telling her to go at it. Messy records mean more digging, and more gold the IRS expects to mine. Conversely, auditors frequently reward good recordkeepers by giving these folks the benefit of the doubt if any problems arise. Neatness builds your credibility with the auditor even if you are not really all that honest. Order appeals to an accountant's mentality, I guess. Also, pre-audit organization of receipts, checks and other items refreshes your recollection for the audit meeting.
What to Bring to an Audit of Your Small Business
Be prepared to show that your tax return is based on good business records. Audit success means documenting your expenses. Proof should be in writing, though auditors can accept oral explanations. A list of items the auditor wants to see usually accompanies your audit notice.
At a minimum, the IRS will expect you to produce the following documents:
NOTE: Don't make the IRS guess. If you don't produce adequate records, the auditor is legally permitted to estimate your income and/or expenses plus impose a separate penalty for your failure to keep records.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- As he defends his proposal to require drug-testing for all West Virginia coal miners, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin is pointing to two state mining deaths he blames on alcohol or drug abuse.
However, a review of official government reports on those two incidents show the causes were more complicated than the governor's statement suggests.
In one, the state Office of Miners Health, Safety and Training didn't mention drug or alcohol use in its formal investigative report, but later tried to strip the license of a miner who was involved after he failed a drug test.
In the other, agency investigators blamed mine managers who they said had allowed the miner who was killed to work his shift after he'd been drinking.
The findings raise more questions about Tomblin's proposal, which already is under fire from the United Mine Workers union and an independent state investigator. Those critics argue that including the controversial drug-testing language in a bill meant to provide legislative follow-up to the Upper Big Branch Mine disaster diverts attention from more important safety reforms.
"There were no alcohol or drugs involved in Upper Big Branch," said Dennis O'Dell, administrator for health and safety at the UMW. "I don't think mine inspectors need to be drug and alcohol police to take them away from what their duties really are."
O'Dell was among those who testified last week during a two-day legislative hearing on Tomblin's legislation and a rival mine-safety bill co-sponsored by House Speaker Rick Thompson, a Wayne County Democrat whose father died in a mining accident.
During Wednesday's testimony, longtime mine safety advocate Davitt McAteer encouraged lawmakers to separate the drug-testing proposal from the rest of the governor's bill, and deal first with what he said were more urgent safety problems.
The next day, Tomblin appeared on statewide radio to defend his bill.
"We believe that the vast majority of our miners are drug and alcohol free," the governor said on the MetroNews "Talkline" show. "What we're wanting to do is make sure we do everything we can do to keep our miners safe."
The governor added, "There were at least two fatalities that I've been informed about that happened because of impaired workers out there."
Administration officials later confirmed that the governor was referring to the 2008 death of a miner at Consol Energy's McElroy Mine in Marshall County and the 2009 death of a contract reclamation worker at Patriot Coal's Samples Mine in Kanawha County.
In the McElroy incident, 58-year-old Victor Goudy was killed when he was pinned between two underground mining vehicles on Oct. 19, 2008.
William Coulson, a general inside laborer at the mine, was driving an underground locomotive that ran into another series of mine cars, which then crushed Goudy up against another locomotive. At the time, Goudy was kneeling down next to the mine cars.
State investigators blamed the incident on the lack of a "conspicuous light or approved reflector" on the back of the mine cars that Coulson ran into. Their eight-page report, released in February 2009, didn't mention alcohol or drugs. Consol had tested Coulson and found his blood contained hydrocodone, for which he had a prescription, and oxycodone, for which he did not, according to court records.
Before releasing their fatal-accident report, state investigators filed a separate action seeking to strip Coulson of his mining license. They argued, among other things, that Coulson violated existing state law prohibiting carrying "any intoxicants" into coal mines or working in the mines "while under the influence of intoxicants."
A report by the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration did not mention drugs or alcohol or include their use as a "root cause" of the accident.
In the other incident Tomblin refers to, 28-year-old Mark Allen Gray was killed on July 28, 2009, when he ran his rock truck off a haul road and into a sediment pond while performing reclamation work for Hawkeye Contracting Co. LLC for Patriot Coal at the Samples Mine.

"A treasure trove of insight and reflection. Herz-Sommer's life is a tribute to the purity of artistic endeavor under the most devastating circumstances, and her refusal to be bitterly defined or essentially reshaped by tragedy is a testament to moral and spiritual courage."—Booklist
"A survivor of Theresienstadt and a world-class Czech pianist shares her amazing story of survival and triumph. Now living in London since she relocated from Jerusalem to be closer to her only son (now deceased), Herz-Sommer is shortly turning 108, still playing the piano, disciplined and abstemious in her daily habits and fairly active, as Stoessinger records over interviews with her between 2004 and 2011. These are short segments that amplify important aspects of her life, such as her acquaintanceship as a young girl in Prague with Franz Kafka and his circle, her happy though too-brief marriage and successful early career as a concert pianist and teacher, the birth of her son in 1937 just as the Nazis were exerting their terror over the Jewish community in Prague and their abrupt deportation to Theresienstadt in 1943. …[W]hat Stoessinger's work reveals startlingly and firsthand are details of life in the concentration camp, especially how the musicians coped with the horrible conditions and even formed a vibrant community. … 'Every concert played there,' Stoessinger writes, 'became a moral victory against the enemy.' … Rounding out this work are memories from Herz-Sommer's students and friends, reflections on favorite authors such as Spinoza, Rilke and Zweig and even recipes."—Kirkus Reviews
"As if her 108 years of experience alone were not enough to coax you, there is the overarching fact that draws people to Herz-Sommer's story: She survived the Theresienstadt concentration camp and is believed to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor."--The Washington Post
"I have rarely read a Holocaust survivor's memoir as enriching and meaningful. Get Caroline Stoessinger's book, A Century of Wisdom, telling Alice Herz-Sommer's tale of her struggles and triumphs. You will feel rewarded."—Elie Wiesel
"A Century of Wisdom is a stately and elegant book about an artist who found deliverance in her passion for music. Caroline Stoessinger writes with a special purity, as though she were arranging pearls on a string of silk."—Pat Conroy
"As one of millions who fell in love on YouTube with Alice Herz-Sommer, a 108-year-old Holocaust survivor who plays the piano and greets each day with no hint of bitterness, I'm grateful to Caroline Stoessinger for writing a book that explains this mystery. You will be inspired by the story of Alice Herz-Sommer, who lives to teach us."—Gloria Steinem
"I walked on the cobblestones in Prague for thirty years wondering who might have walked on them before me: Kafka, Freud, Mahler. It feels like a miracle to have encountered, in Caroline Stoessinger's wonderful book, Alice Herz-Sommer, who walked with them all—with a heart full of music."—Peter Sis
"Caroline Stoessinger's celebration of music and life and of the meaning and legacy of Alice Herz-Sommer's remarkable, love-filled journey across the bitter, hate-filled years of twentieth-century madness is lyrical, compelling, and profoundly moving. This is an extraordinary, enchanting, entirely inspiring book—most timely and needed now."—Blanche Wiesen Cook

BANDED was formed by a group of avid outdoorsmen, innovators, and product designers that joined forces after years of working in the outdoor industry. After countless hours of brainstorming and discussing product designs, we decided to make a run at it. Our quest to produce better products led us around the globe in search of the finest materials and engineering processes. Through new-aged technology, extensive materials testing, and precise manufacturing, BANDED was born. Ideas that were once drawn on the tailgate of a pick-up eventually evolved into finished products. Design themes of traditional military bags, tools, and clothing were incorporated into inventive stylish designs. And, we put great emphasis on eliminating, where possible, plastic hardware. You'll quickly notice our common use of metal buckles, grommets, rivets, and other components.
BANDED currently offers over a thousand items representing nineteen diverse product categories. Some of the product categories you can expect to see include: outerwear, waders, boots, hunting accessories, blinds, and calls. We can assure you that we'll do our best to provide new, innovative, and functional gear for the outdoors. Our gear is tough. Our gear is "sharp". And, our gear works.

Delta Waterfowl would like to thank longtime corporate sponsor Budweiser for its continued support of waterfowl conservation and ethical hunting.
Budweiser sponsors Delta's "Look for the Drakes" Campaign, which uses posters and other communications materials to spread the drakes-only message to waterfowl hunters.
"Budweiser continues to be our anchor sponsor of voluntary restraint and its message of promoting ethical waterfowl hunting, and we couldn't be happier about it," said Delta Vice President of U.S. Policy John Devney.
In addition, Budweiser is also helping fund conservation through its Help Budweiser Conserve the Outdoors program, which has raised nearly $9 million in more than a decade.
As part of the program, participating Anheuser-Busch wholesalers will donate a portion of each Budweiser sale (cans or bottles) made in September and October to the company's corporate conservation partners, including Delta Waterfowl.
The grant money will be used to fund important wildlife habitat projects.
Cabela's, the World's Foremost Outfitter of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear, was born somewhat inadvertently in 1961 when Dick Cabela came up with a plan to sell fishing flies he purchased while at a furniture show in Chicago. Upon returning home to Chappell, Nebraska, Dick ran a classified ad in the Casper, Wyoming, newspaper reading: "12 hand-tied flies for $1." It generated one response. Undaunted, Dick formulated a new plan, rewriting the ad to read "FREE Introductory offer! 5 hand tied Flies….25c Postage….Handling" and placing it in national outdoor magazines. It didn't take long for the orders to begin arriving from sportsmen and women around the country. In the interim Cabelas growth has been legendary and they have been a proud supporter of many conservation organizations. Delta Waterfowl is happy to welcome Cabela's as a Conservation Partner.
"Cabela's is proud to sponsor Delta Waterfowl and their invaluable efforts to enhance duck production, advocate hunting and continue their world renowned research programs. Cabela's is making contributions towards these Delta projects. It's part of our commitment to preserving our hunting traditions and to the millions of fellow hunters we serve."

Drake Waterfowl
Drake Waterfowl Systems is dedicated to creating innovative products for waterfowl hunters. Like dad and granddad before us, we live for duck season. It's in our blood. It's also the foundation of Drake Waterfowl Systems, perhaps the most instinctively designed gear to ever grace the marsh. What started as a handful of clothing and accessory styles has grown to a nearly complete line of everything a waterfowl needs to be successful in the field, including Early Season, Mid-Season, and Late Season clothing, waders, and boots, technical gear bags, blinds, sporting dog products, and Waterfowler 365™ - functional casual wear for obsessed waterfowl hunters just like us.

Federal Premium® Ammunition
Federal Premium® Ammunition began building shotshells in 1922, an era generally agreed was a low point in wildlife conservation. Much of America was being plowed up, and waterfowl habitat was being destroyed at record rates. Company leaders from the very beginning realized that if Federal Ammunition was to be successful, America had to have healthy wildlife populations or our customer base would go away. In the 1930's Federal started Conservation Camps with 4H, supported passage of the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Conservation Act, and advertised with cartoons preaching a conservation ethic.
That commitment to wildlife conservation is still core to Federal's business philosophy as is our commitment to innovation to provide the most effective product hunters and target shooters can buy. BLACKCLOUD ® shotshells are an example of that innovation, featuring game changing technology in the FLITECONTROL ® wad, and FLITESTOPPER ® pellets that increase lethality, and reduce wounding loss. After all, clean kills makes for good conservation. Look for the Delta Waterfowl logo proudly displayed on our Speed-Shok ® waterfowl loads. We display that logo because we believe that Delta has the vision and the courage to sustain waterfowl and waterfowl hunters, and we think all our customers should be members.

SportingDog Adventures showcases some of the finest opportunities available stateside in upland, waterfowl, and big game hunting.

We remain committed to providing family-oriented entertainment, and that means segments for men and women, adults and kids, and even non-hunters. Our shows include youth segments, designed to inspire adults to pass on their love of the outdoors. Special "featurettes" include segments dealing with canine health, training tips for a variety of breeds, and cooking segments demonstrating wild game recipes. Few outdoors shows can truly fit the bill of "something for everyone," but we honestly feel that we do.

The waterfowl industry was forever changed in 1972 when Tanglefree's founders had the ingenuity to invent a decoy line and anchor method that would not rot, float, flare ducks and could quickly retrieve decoys without tangling. For over 40 years, companies have attempted to copy our original decoy line with unparalleled standards while Tanglefree expanded into the waterfowl industry with new products.
No longer just a decoy line and weight company, Tanglefree recently introduced a modern version of the original company logo to symbolize our relentless growth of high quality decoys and gear while never forgetting the importance to develop innovative products. Tanglefree offers hundreds of pro-staff designed waterfowl accessories and gear in addition to over 80 decoy varieties of geese, puddle ducks, diver ducks, sea ducks and specialty bird species. Please look for Tanglefree waterfowl decoys and gear at your next Delta Waterfowl event.

- Do you wonder where the data comes from and how to verify information displayed in visual form?
- Would you rather read a 100 page report or look at a visual presentation that conveys the story in less than one minute?
- Would you like to tell a compelling story about your library through the medium of infographics?
Visual representation of information has existed for hundreds of years in various forms and formats. Infographics (information graphics) represent the latest visual form to gain popularity. Telling an effective story through infographics requires accurate data, compelling design, and visualization tools.
During this one-hour webinar, we will discuss and demonstrate:
- blogs and infographic search resources to find examples and track trends
- differences between infographics, poster art, and data visualization
- common data sources used in infographics (big data and local sources)
- suggest library-specific data and statistics appropriate for visual presentation
- visualization tools for experimentation
This webinar will be of interest to library staff at all levels and in all types of libraries who need to present information to customers, stakeholders, and management. Senior staff and directors responsible for board reporting are especially encouraged to attend.
Mobile Technology Training: Tech-a-la-Carte
Have you thought about taking technology training out of the library and into the community? Join our webinar on Wednesday, November 14 at 11 a.m. Pacific time to find out how the Poudre River Public Library District in Colorado created "Tech-a-la-Carte" to do just that.
Irene Romsa, manager of the Outreach Department for the Poudre River Public Library District, will provide an insider's tour of Tech-a-la-Carte. With this small mobile computer lab, the library is taking technology training into the community. The lab provides the library with the flexibility to respond to the particular needs (content, location, time, and day) of specific groups.
This webinar is part of a series of webinars exploring the Edge Initiative Benchmarks. This webinar is based on Benchmark 8, which includes the attribute, "The library engages in technology outreach activities by maintaining mobile training equipment for library-sponsored technology training in partner facilities."
Energize your base: Tips and tools to raise awareness and build support for library services
A webinar exploring ways to increase your community's awareness of library services and of how those services are changing lives.
We know that libraries are a good investment but with tight budgets, we need to energize our base – to take action to connect more strongly with community members, to find out what excites them, and to let them know how libraries are changing lives – one connection at a time. Our panel will explore three vehicles that can help you increase awareness of library services:
Library Videos – New videos from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation that showcase work done in libraries which are transforming lives, by changing the way we connect.
Geek the Library – A community awareness campaign offered free to libraries to help strengthen community connections and library support.
Data Visualization – We collect lots of data. Learn how the Colorado State Library is helping local libraries use their data to tell a story about impact.
Presented by: Karen Perry, Senior Program Officer, Global Libraries, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; Jennifer Pearson, Programs Manager, OCLC Community Relations; Jamie Hollier, Project Manager with PLA and Library Consultant; and Linda Hofschire, Research Analyst, Library Research Service, Colorado State Library.

We'll explore how to decide which content to create, how to create it (even without typing a single keystroke!), create eye-catching headlines, post your content to blogs, social media, and websites, tweet about it, Facebook, develop irresistible free offers, create landing pages for people to sign up for those offers, use search engines to drive boost traffic, launch campaigns to gain more leads and increase the quality of those leads, and much more! For each of the 25+ steps, we'll discuss what to do, why to do it, and what tangible and intangible benefits you should expect. More importantly, for each step we'll actually demo a cool tool enabling you to quickly, easily, and in most cases for free, implement that tool. Each tool may blow your mind. Altogether… well, you might want to wear a hat!

Link Explored Between Colon Cancer, Bacterium
Research could provide clues for diagnosing, treating malignancies, study says
TUESDAY, Oct. 18 (HealthDay News) -- Colorectal cancers contain high levels of a bacterium that may contribute to the cancer and could prove important in diagnosing, treating and preventing it, according to new research.
A team from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Broad Institute in Boston analyzed nine samples of normal colon tissue and nine samples of colorectal cancer tissue and found unusually high numbers of Fusobacterium cells in the tumor samples.
The study was published online Oct. 17 in the journal Genome Research, which also includes a paper by Canadian researchers who reported similar findings.
"Tumors and their surroundings contain complex mixtures of cancer cells, normal cells, and a variety of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses," Dr. Matthew Meyerson, senior author of the Dana-Farber/Broad Institute study, said in a Dana-Farber news release.
"Over the past decade, there has been an increasing focus on the relationship between cancer cells and their 'microenvironment,' specifically on the cell-to-cell interactions that may promote cancer formation and growth," he noted.
There's no definitive link between Fusobacterium and colorectal cancer, but there are hints that the bacterium may play a role in the cancer, said Meyerson, co-director of the Center for Cancer Genome Discovery at Dana-Farber and a professor of pathology at Harvard Medical School.
Previous research has suggested an association between Fusobacterium and inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis, which can increase the risk of colon cancer.
"At this point, we don't know what the connection between Fusobacterium and colon cancer might be," Meyerson said. "It may be that the bacterium is essential for cancer growth, or that cancer simply provides a hospitable environment for the bacterium. Further research is needed to see what the link is."
If it's confirmed that Fusobacterium plays a role in the onset of colorectal cancer, it would be the first time that any microorganism has been found to be involved in this type of cancer.
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. More than 141,000 people in the nation will be diagnosed with the disease this year, and it will kill more than 49,000 people, according to the American Cancer Society.

New Albany won twice as many individual events as Floyd Central, but the Highlanders depth was enough for them to edge the Bulldogs, 291 1/2 to 276 for the Hoosier Hills Conference championship on Saturday at Jennings County.
Meg Taylor won the 200-yard freestyle and the 500 free and Maryn Meldrum took the 100 breaststroke title to boost Flody past the Bulldogs, who won six of the 13 events.
Helping the Highlanders was a first and third in the 200 behind Taylor and Amy McCormick, a first and third in 500 with Taylor and Meldrum, a first and third in the 100 breaststroke with Meldrum and Lauren Batliner, and a top-two sweep in the 500 with Taylor and McCormick.
New Albany, which will get another crack at its rival in the Floyd Central Sectional on Jan. 26, had two individual wins apiece from Hannah Manger and Rachel Klein. Manger and Klein were also both on two winning Bulldog relay teams.
Manger, Klein, Reagan Thom and Alexis Lete set a new Hoosier Hills record in the 200 freestyle relay with a blazing 1:41.57 that New Albany set a year ago.
Manger, Klein, Thom and Lauren McCool also won the 400 free relay in 3:43.62. The Highlanders finished second in both events.
Manger's 58.88 broke Ariel Martin's HHC record in the 100 backstroke along with winning the 200 individual medley. Klein took the 50 freestyle in 25 seconds and beat Jeffersonville's Elizabeth Browne to the wall to win the 100 free.
Karlee Demsey and Alexa Waldrip were two-time winners for third-place Jeffersonville. Demsey won the 100 butterfly and Waldrip repeated as the conference diving champion. Demsey and Waldrip also teamed with Samantha Glover and Yanna Martin to open the meet with a victory in the 200 medley relay.
Browne's runner up in the 100 free and Amelia Blankenbeker's third-place finish in the 500 free also helped the Red Devils finish just 30 points behind the champion Highlanders.
"[It was a] great meet today," Jeff coach Keith Gast said. "Floyd performed as expected and won the meet. New Albany gave them a good run, but I was very pleased with our performance. We closed the gap on both Floyd and New Albany from the beginning of the season."
At Jennings County
Team scores: Floyd Central 291 1/2, New Albany 276, Jeffersonville 261, Seymour 181, Jennings County 143 1/2, Bedford North Lawrence 77, Columbus East 59, Madison 45.
