In 2013, the Pride remained champions of the Pilgrim League for the sixth time in a row and returned to the NCAA tournament. Bugbee won Pilgrim League Coach of the Year honors and Ryon Lynch was selected as the Pilgrim Player of the Year.
In 2011, Bugbee became just the seventh coach in NCAA men's lacrosse history to reach the 300 career win milestone.
Bugbee's teams have competed in 27 post-season tournaments, including 18 NCAA Tournaments, and won a national championship. 44 of his players have received All-America recognition, including Bob Felt, who was voted the 1994 U.S. Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Division II Player of the Year.
Bugbee was named the USILA Division II Coach of the Year in 1994 and 1995. He coached the North team in the annual North-South All-Star Game in 1995 and was the coach for the West squad in the annual New England All-Star Game in 1986. Bugbee served as president of the New England Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association and was inducted into the New England Lacrosse Hall of Fame in 2002.
In 2011, Bugbee became just the seventh coach in NCAA men's lacrosse history to reach the 300 career win milestone after he bested Mass. Maritime, 21-4, on April 23. The following Saturday, Bugbee's squad toppled MIT, 15-5, bringing Bugbee's win total to 301 as he passed legendary coach Dick Garber for the most wins in New England Lacrosse history.
In 2012, the Pride was anchored by three All-America selections in Shane Ferguson, Mike Delia, and Robert Maher. Springfield spent the majority of the season ranked in the USILA National Coaches Poll and finished the year with a 14-4 record, marking just the third time in 62 years that Springfield totaled at least 14 victories. The Pride lost in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament in a memorable 13-12 overtime clash at Stevens.
For for the fourth-straight season and 10th time overall, Springfield won the Pilgrim League Championship in 2011. Led the two-time Pilgrim League Player of the Year, Mark Eaton, Springfield went 11-6 on the season before bowing out to Endicott in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament.
In 2010, Springfield hoisted its' ninth overall Pilgrim League Championship trophy, and third-consecutive title. The Pride hosted Widener in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, and won by the score of 7-1. Springfield's season came to a close in the second round of the national tournament at Salisbury State, as it was once again eliminated by a participant of the national championship game. Eight players were selected Pilgrim League All-Conference squad, including Springfield's third-straight Pilgrim League Player of the Year.
The 2009 campaign resulted in the Pride capturing its eighth Pilgrim League crown. Earning a home game in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament, the Pride made light work of Mount Ida, winning by a 21-4 count. For the second-straight year, Springfield then headed out to for a second-round battle at Cortland State. Going up against the eventual NCAA National Champion, the Pride's comeback fell short as it lost, 15-12. The Pride landed eight players on the All-Pilgrim squad, including the Pilgrim League Player of the Year Jake Beebe and Rookie of the Year, Mike Delia.
The 2008 season saw the Pride cruise through Pilgrim League play undefeated en route to winning the program's seventh Pilgrim League crown. Earning a home game in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament, Bugbee's troops dispatched Kean, 17-2, before fighting valiantly in a 12-9 loss to eventual national-runner up, Cortland State, in the second round. The Pride were led by eight All-Pilgrim honorees, including Chris Sharpe, who was tabbed the Player of the Year.
In 2007, Springfield advanced to the championship game of the Pilgrim Lacrosse League for the eighth consecutive year. Seven SC lacrosse players earned All-Pilgrim League recognition in 2007, including Rookie of the Year Joe Heney.
After starting off the 2006 campaign slowly, recording a 2-3 mark in its first five games, the Pride responded by rattling off victories in 11 of its next 12 games, which included an eight-game winning streak. SC captured its fourth-straight Pilgrim League Tournament title, beating WNEC for the championship in a double-overtime thriller, 12-11. In doing so, the Pride earned its 11th berth in the NCAA Tournament. SC's season unfortunately ended with a second-round loss in the NCAA Division III Tournament at Middlebury College.

In 2005, SC won 12 consecutive games, including a pair of victories in the Pilgrim League Championship, before ending its season against Wesleyan in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
The Pride finished the 2004 season with the nation's fifth-ranked scoring offense (14.53 goals/game) and rolled to an 8-0 mark against league competition, including a pair of wins in the conference tournament. Making the program's seventh appearance in the NCAA Division III Tournament, SC fell at Stevens Institute of Technology, 8-4, in a second-round match-up. Two of Bugbee's stars, Paul Purdy and Taylor Brown, were named honorable mention All-Americans, and Purdy was tabbed the Player of the Year in the Pilgrim League.

Springfield led the nation in scoring (17.78 gpg) and scoring margin (+11.67 gpg) while winning its second consecutive Pilgrim League Championship. SC, which was ranked as high as No. 3 nationally, had six players named All-American, including former Boston Cannons goalie Jeremy Platt.
In 2000, the Pride finished the season ranked No. 20 after falling in overtime at RIT, 13-12, in the first round of the NCAA Division III Tournament. SC was ranked No. 12 in 1999 after compiling a 12-5 record. SC finished 12-4 in 1998 and captured its second ECAC Division III Championship. The Pride also won ECAC Championships in 1989, 1993 and 2002.
In 1994, Springfield captured the NCAA Division II National Championship with a 15-12 victory over New York Institute of Technology to finish with a 12-2 record.

NYCDOE Students and Teachers Deserve a 3 to 5 Day Break in May
I believe that NYCDOE students and teachers have worked very hard this whole school year and deserve a 3 to 5 day school break in the month of May. There are many reasons for this. First of all, it is not our fault that, unfortunately, Hurricane Sandy struck in October. We had our vacation in February cut off because of this incident. We could use this break to gain the days we lost in February's break. Second of all, we have worked hard so we deserve a 3 to 5 day break in May to just relax and forget about the troubles we may encounter. Another reason I believe we deserve a school break is because I believe that 3 to 5 days will not harm our learning experience. We learn enough already. And by the way, for anyone who tries to sue me for this, this is my first amendment right, so you can't do that.

HOOPESTON — Marcie Sheridan stepped into the role of Hoopeston Multi-Agency director effective on Tuesday, filling the shoes of Chalmers Flint who is retiring.
"The opportunity to become director of the Multi-Agency will keep me close to my family and community," Sheridan said.
Sheridan, the daughter of Randy and Linda Chesnut of Hoopeston, spent the last two years as executive director of the Kankakee County Center Against Sexual Assault (KC-CASA) in Kankakee, taking the reins at a time when the organization was in jeopardy of closing.
Under her management, the agency increased staff to 18 full- and part-time members with a financial reserve established and funding sources to help insure long term sustainability.
"While I truly loved what I was doing and enjoyed my time as director of KC-CASA," Sheridan said, "I wanted a position that kept me closer to home and allowed me to be a part of helping those in my hometown community."
Previous to her position with KC-CASA, Sheridan spent 10 years as the Iroquois County advocacy coordinator and legal medical advocate with Iroquois Sexual Assault Services (ISAS) in Watseka and two years as a child advocate at the YWCA Women's Shelter in Danville. She also is involved in the CrossRoads Youth Center in Milford as treasurer and volunteer for the organization.
"I am extremely excited that we have someone who can fill my shoes that can handle it," Flint said.
Multi-Agency board member Dan Goodrum added, "Like a sigh of relief."
Sheridan has a Bachelor of Social Work degree from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale and a Master's of Social Work from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. She has internships and other relevant work through the Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence as policy intern and Big Brothers Big Sisters Youth Advocate in Springfield, UIUC Office of Women's Programs graduate assistant in Champaign, and Women's Center intern and SIUC Achieve Program tutor in Carbondale.

Fluker is the biggest issue here. His violation supposedly happened in early 2012.

|Opportunistic Crime
|Written by STEVE REMIGE
Depending on who you believe, deputies working at the Bauchet Street facilities just lost the equivalent of 350 positions. That's more than ten percent of the total number of sworn personnel assigned to three of our mails.
I say "the equivalent" because those jobs existed but the deputies to fill them did not. The Sheriff's Dept. wisely budgeted for the positions to help put an end to the violent riots that erupted in our Custody facilities in January 2006. The extra personnel provided enhanced oversight of the most violent inmates, thereby eliminating the opportunity for those inmates to injure each other or jail staff.
The increase in staffing levels successfully stopped the violence. Unfortunately, the increase in staffing came largely from overtime for our deputies. Our members didn't complain – overtime is great for the paycheck, but it's difficult to sustain double shifts year in and year out.
Overtime cannot solve this problem permanently, but it can provide an important bridge while the Department hires more deputies.
It's been a year since the jail riots, and nearly a year since our new contract provided competitive starting salaries to recruit more deputies to join our ranks. But our commanders were wrong when they said we would be back up to full strength by now. Overtime costs have gone through the roof and some facilities are 350 deputies short of safe staffing levels.
Without enough sworn personnel violent inmates will seize every opportunity to be violent. Even if we do the best job possible to provide a safe environment in the jails, deputies, non-sworn staff in inmates will still get hurt.
Steve Remige is the president of the Association of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs (ALADS).

If you love flip-flops, you gotta love these! I originally bought these flip-flops one year ago in gold. I've gotten so many women asking me where I purchased them. Everyone loves their simple yet elegant style. They are extremely comfortable and durable. The little pineapple in the middle adds the finishing touch that makes them unique. The gold and silver finish on the bands are really eye-catching. Even my young, trendy daughter wanted a pair so I purchased her a pair in gold and I bought another pair in silver for myself. You gotta love these flip-flops!! July 18, 2014

Coming off a 12-2 victory Monday over Grayville, the North Clay bats were at it again early yesterday afternoon against South Central. The Cardinals tacked on four runs in the first inning, taking advantage of a number of walks and timely hitting.
Not another North Clay run was scored from there, but with Nick McKnelly on the mound, it didn't matter. McKnelly pitched seven innings of shutout baseball, striking out six batters to guide the Cardinals to a 4-0 win over the Cougars.
"We're lucky that Nick threw a great game," North Clay coach John Frech said. "That's probably one of the best he's had in his four-year career."
McKnelly was in complete control for the duration of the game, never facing more than five batters in one inning. By the end of the seven-inning contest, McKnelly had faced just 25 batters at the plate, four above the minimum.
Even more impressive, the Cardinals' ace finished the day with no walks. South Central had three hits on the afternoon, and McKnelly hit one batter for a free bag.
"He pounded the zone," Frech said. "It's something that we've been working on with him, just a phenomenal game. I told him, 'We're not going to give them freebies.'"
Pitching with the lead also helped Frech's starter, as the Cardinals were able to score early and often. South Central pitcher Daniel Diss started the first inning with walks to North Clay's Lawson Britton and Nate Micklautz. Adam Cox sent Britton home one batter later on a sacrifice fly to left field, and another walk to Logan Hilderbrand loaded the bases with one out.
"It's unusual from Diss," Cougars coach Curt Jones said. "He's so consistent."
Diss rebounded by striking out Hunter Clifton, but Dylan Walker sent two runs home with a single to left field that snuck past Austin Schwarm to allow the runner to coast into second. Two batters later, McKnelly delivered at the plate, dropping a single short in center that plated Walker for the 4-0 lead.
"It was just key hitting," Frech said. "That's what the game of baseball is all about. Everything has got to be on time."
The three-run, two-out rally in the first provided all the offense North Clay needed and more. The Cardinals cooled off for the remainder of the game, finishing with four hits, none coming after the end of the third inning.
"It was real huge playing with the lead," Frech said. "We characteristically don't score until late. In a perfect world I'd like to have kept tacking on, I think we lost our focus."
McKnelly didn't lose his, and the pitcher's determination propelled the Cardinals to yet another big win. Pitching equally as strong at the end of the contest, McKnelly got South Central to go 1-2-3 in each of the last three innings, appropriately ending the game by fanning the Cougars' Shawn Meyer.
North Clay improved to 11-3 on the season with the win, and Frech's squad is back in action today against visiting Fairfield.
The Cougars were able to make some solid contact on the ball, but couldn't seem to get their offense rolling and generate any sort of rhythm.
"We put the ball in play a lot," Jones said. "Some of the hard ones we hit right at them."
South Central fell to 5-7 with the loss, and will try to get back on track today when the Cougars host Ramsey.

Jessica Andrade: She certainly showed a skill-set that was certainly competitive in the division in round 1, finishing in a submission position over Carmouche before being thoroughly dismantled in the second round. She should face another fighter coming off a loss in order to see who still has the goods at the bottom of the division to maintain a potential contender status down the line.
Result: She faces off against Rosie Sexton.
Liz Carouche: Carmouche showed she was more than just Ronda Rousey's first UFC defence cannon fodder and showed a ruthless streak in round 2 resulting in a more than justified stop in what would have been a 10-8 round. She may have just had a title shot, but a fight against Cat Zingano while Rousey fights Tate for a number one contender spot would be exciting. It's not as though the UFC has a habit of keeping their previous contenders spot warm after an injury.
Result: She squares off against Cat Zingano
Bobby Voelker: He may have come into this fight on short notice, but he was worked over by a faster, more effective striker and his durable chin was only able to last so long before Lawler's beautiful high kick started the end of his night. However, I expect the UFC to give him a chance to rebuild his stock and give him a lower ranked fighter to try to re-establish himself.
Result: He faces Dan Miller in a fight that puts the loser in a very precarious situation.
Robbie Lawler: There is little doubt Lawler has reinvented himself as of late in the welterweight division with impressive knockouts over former title contender Koscheck and now Voelker. It's time to take that step up in competition and see how his game holds up against a big enough name that will push him closer to a title shot.
Result: He faces off against Nate Marquardt in a fight that even in this division, if either has a good showing, could leave them only a couple of fights away from a title shot.
Jake Ellenberger: Well, it's safe to say this fight did not go as Ellenberger anticipated. After the weeks of trash talking, Ellenberger was outclassed technically in a match that he was never going to be the most technical in. He appeared tentative to let his hands go, and was unable to evade jabs GSP would be proud of from Macdonald that he was popping off, and could not find his way around the footwork of Macdonald. The truth of the matter is Ellenberger may think he can beat anyone in the world on his day - but with performances like this we are less and less likely to believe it. He will deservedly take a step down in competition, and will be interesting to see if the 'Juggernaut' comes back to action, or if his motivation takes a dive down.
Result: A fight against Thiago Alves would be interesting.
Rory MacDonald: Most people will argue that 'Ares' didn't produce a performance to send shockwaves around the world and announce that the superstar potential had been on display. The fact of the matter is, he never needed to. This is still a very young fighter who was in a very big fight against an opponent publicly speaking out against his ranking in the world as 'ridiculous'. He pumped his jab, he worked his footwork, and he never needed to exert anything other than that to produce a victory. The explosive and powerful Ellenberger than one can presume he planned for just never showed up, and he had no need to take unnecessary risks in a fight that he was winning. He may not have finished the fight or shown anything emphatic, but the truth of the matter is he beat the number 4 welterweight in the world, and there's only so many fights left that aren't George. That being said, I can think of one match we would like to see...
Result: He fights the winner if Condit:Kampmann 2 in a number one contender bout. Both Condit and Kampmann have lost lopsidedly to GSP and Hendricks respectively, decisively- another win over other than each other against MacDonald would help provide a basis for a shot at the title. Also, who wouldn't want to see the rematch that injury robbed us of between Condit and MacDonald?
John Moraga: The UFC did not take a very big risk promoting Moraga to a championship fight. He was unknown, but he was undefeated in the UFC with two finishes, and this event was not expected to gain a large number of viewers in the first place at this time of the season. To the UFC, there were two outcomes: A dominant champion continues his reign, or a hungry up-and-comer comes in and takes the division by storm and creates a rivalry at the top of the division. Unfortunately for Moraga, he was simply outclassed by the faster, more technically sound champion who had a perfect game plan. He will have lost no fans and gained both exposure and new fans alike from being on free television. In order to continue his exposure, I think a fight against another relatively well-known flyweight coming off a loss would make a lot of sense.
Result: He faces off against Uncle Creepy Ian McCall.
Demetrious Johnson: Well, what's left to say about Mighty Mouse? He just gets better and better every showing, and this fight put a statement out that Johnson is a very impressive champion, and more than anything showed how exciting the flyweight division can be. A lot of people find the division 'boring' but from emphatic takedowns, to multiple submission attempts, to the latest stoppage in UFC history, this fight defied the defiant opinion that this division may not have what it takes to attract audiences in the near future. I believe a 'super fight' is far off the cards for now- Johnson needs a couple more victories to start to build a legacy, and bantamweight has enough issues with Cruz and Barao needing to, assuming Cruz is healthy again in the coming months, assert who is the champion.
Result: The winner of the Benavidez:Formiga fight.

District Guide
Klang, formerly known as Kelang, is the royal capital of the state of Selangor. It is located within the Klang District in Klang Valley. It is located about 32 km to the west of Kuala Lumpur and 6 km east of Port Klang. It was the civil capital of Selangor in an earlier era prior to the emergence of Kuala Lumpur and the current capital, Shah Alam. Port Klang, which is located in the Klang District, is the 13th busiest trans-shipment port and the 16th busiest container port in the world. The local municipal council of Klang, Majlis Perbandaran Klang (MPK), exercises jurisdiction for a majority of the Klang District.
Klang is well known for a lot of Chinese cuisine (e.g: Bak Kut Teh, Chick Kut Teh, Chee Cheong Fun, and many more). Seafood cuisine is also one of Klang's most famous must-haves and some of the well-known places to have seafood is at Teluk Gong and Tanjung Harapan. The restaurants here are known for their crabs, prawns and a few other dishes. Besides having a diverse choice of food, Klang has many shopping centers, medical and education facilities and most of all, transportation.
To reach Klang by car, there are 3 major highways linking to Klang. The North Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) links the Bukit Raja toll plaza in Klang to the North-South Highway. Visitors from Shah Alam, Subang,
Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur can use the Federal Highway to reach Klang. Visitors can also use the Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS highway) to reach Klang South. Alternatively, Klang is also accessible via coastal roads from Banting and Sepang (south) or Kuala Selangor and Sabak Bernam (north). By train, Klang's railway station is located at Jalan Stesen in the part of town south of the Klang River. KTM Komuter, Klang Valley's commuter train network, connects Klang directly with Kuala Lumpur (50 minutes) and Port Klang (20 minutes). By bus, the former Klang bus and taxi terminal is located right in the heart of the town opposite the Mydin Shopping Complex, but it has since been moved to Klang Sentral, which is about 8 kilometers away from the town centre. Buses to and from Kuala Lumpur, Port Klang, Kuala Selangor, Banting and other destinations have been operating out of Klang Sentral since 27 December 2008. As Klang Sentral is located far away from the town centre, the Klang Municipal Council (MPK) has established five bus pick-up points around the town for the convenience of the passengers. By boat however, Klang is not located by the sea but there are boats between Indonesia (Dumai and Tanjung Balai Asahan) and Port Klang which is located 8km away. Star Cruises terminal is located at Pulau Indah in Port Klang.

Some Superlatives from the Supermajority Session
Some superlative legislative performances during the first supermajority session of Tennessee's 108th General Assembly:
Best Oratory: Rep. Bill Sanderson, R-Kenton, is generally a fairly mild-mannered and quiet fellow. But on the final day of the session, the bespectacled appliance salesman rose on the House floor to lead the rhetoric in rebellion against what he depicted as dictatorial state senators trying to cram a judicial redistricting bill down the throat of the "people's chamber." Gesturing with arms and hands, spinning this direction and that, the impassioned Sanderson's sizzling speech left jaws dropping -- and red "no" lights bright on the vote tally display board.
Best Loser: Rep. Jon Lundberg, R-Bristol, House sponsor of the failing wine-in-groceries bill, the failing bill to increase penalties for cockfighting and the failing judicial redistricting legislation savaged by Sanderson. The Lundberg losers were bipartisan bills with logical and reasonable policy arguments behind them and entrenched interests opposing them. Just like in the years before the supermajority.
Freshman of the Year, Republican: Rep. William Lamberth of Cottontown introduced the maximum 15 bills permitted under new rules and proceeded to violate the old, unwritten rule that calls for freshmen to keep quiet, listen and learn in their first term. Lamberth saw 10 of his bills enacted, more than any other freshman -- perhaps most notably one that makes secret the Department of Safety's list of 400,000 handgun permit holders. A gregarious sort, the former prosecutor was an aggressive questioner in committees, particularly on crime bills, and rarely was on the losing side of a vote.
Freshman of the Year, Democrat: Rep. Gloria Johnson of Knoxville, if anything, was an even more flagrant violator of that old tradition of the silent freshman. But then, as a Democrat already a top target for the state Republican party in next year's elections, what else should the school teacher do? On lost causes ranging from the bill she sponsored to ban mountaintop removal coal mining to a critique of the state's for-profit virtual schools operation and the "ag gag bill," Johnson became a party point person. And she actually got one passed of eight bills she sponsored.
Most Quotable: Sen. Frank Niceley, R-Strawberry Plains, has an opinion on everything, a "little history lesson" on most matters and a way of phrasing things that keeps reporters scribbling in their notebooks. Here's a sample from a conversation on the state capitol's multimillion dollar security system that was put in place this year: "This rinky-dink security system? It's like something Wile E. Coyote ordered from Acme." Runnerup honors go to House Democratic Caucus Chairman Mike Turner, who is never at loss for words in bashing the supermajority.
Supermajority Operative of the Year: Sen. Brian Kelsey, R-Germantown, who was elevated to chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee at the session's outset and -- there and elsewhere -- was stirring most every legislative pot that boiled. Kelsey took a lead role in committee, for example, in defeating legislation, pushed by legislators who considered themselves more conservative than he, giving the General Assembly authority to nullify federal laws. Then he was much involved in efforts elsewhere to broaden Gov. Bill Haslam's school voucher bill, basically arguing it wasn't conservative enough. That, of course, led the governor yanking the bill for the year. Sometimes he was successful, sometimes not -- rather like the supermajority as a whole. In past years, Kelsey came across as one of the most conservative legislators. Today, it seems he's sort of in the middle of the mix.
Superminority Operative of the Year: House Minority Leader Craig Fitzhugh, a self-described conservative Democrat, seems transformed this year from political diplomat to political warrior. Last session, Fttzhugh left most of the partisan criticism of Republicans to his sidekick in Democratic leadership, Turner, while voicing mild misgivings, often coupled with kind words about individual Republicans. Not this year. While still not as harsh as Turner, the minority leader has demonstrated a willingness to throw rhetorical rocks and has become adept at drafting floor amendments that make some Republicans uncomfortable about voting them down.
To be continued (reader nominations welcome).

Some folks think all the diamonds come from Africa. Well, a lot of them do come from Africa, but there are diamond mines in
North America, Russia and Australia. It's in Australia where there's been a major diamond find.
The Argyle Pink Jubilee Diamond is 12.76 carats, and is undergoing ten days of cutting and polishing. It's the biggest diamond unearthed since the Argyle Mine opened 26 years ago.
When the gemstone has been cut and polished it will go on a world tour including New York and Hong Kong, before being sold later this year. While the company won't say what its worth, the diamond could bring as much as $1 million a carat.

Green Living Research Guide Leave a comment
The library is "Going Green" with our National Library Week festivities, thinking of ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle. We're selling all of our withdrawn books and audiovisual material in the book sale next week, holding a recycled book contest for people to be creative with old and seemingly unusable books, collecting paper to be recycled and binding them into notepads, etc. We've also put together a Green Living research guide to help you live a greener life.
In the Green Living research guide, you'll find information about reference books, electronic books, and regular books on sustainable living, green architecture, and the environment, among other topics. You can also see the audiovisual materials we own on green living, as well as streaming media through databases like Films on Demand (that you can use to view streaming films on your computer at home). The Green Living research guide also lists a wide variety of websites that might be of interst, and can start you on your way to thinking about ways you can live more green.

No one can blame them for not doing it, and its understandable why they didnt do it.
Still, it wouldve sent a powerful message if one of them had.
If just one Newtown, Conn., parent had held an open-casket funeral for their murdered child, Im guessing the momentum in the debate over gun-control legislation would be trending differently right now.
As it is, though, the memories of the shootings and their emotional impact seem to be receding from the national psyche like waves on the beach, allowing some elected officials to wuss out, lest they run afoul of the NRAs leadership.
For the kids, indeed.
The mental image of a 6-year-old child shredded by bullets from Adam Lanzas mamas Bushmaster .223 would not be so easily washed away, and lawmakers might feel more fortified in standing up against the powerful lobbying group.
Emmett Tills mama
Speaking of mamas, Mamie Till-Mobley knew 57 years ago the power of such an image. Mobley was Emmett Tills mama, and as parents up North and in the Midwest are still wont to do, she sent him from Chicago to Mississippi to spend the summer with his country relations.
The 14-year-old boy was kidnapped in August 1955 from his great-uncles home, savagely beaten and thrown into the Tallahatchie River. His crime: hed supposedly whistled at a white woman.
Till-Mobleys memoir, completed in 2003 just before she died, was called Death of Innocence: The Story of the Hate Crime That Changed America.
Its doubtful her sons death, which received international attention, would have changed anything had Till-Mobley acquiesced to the undertaker and closed the casket lid. See, most peoples knowledge of what a mutilated body looks like comes from Hollywood, all neat and sanitized. Thousands upon thousands of people streamed past and saw the disfigured teen lying in his casket at a Chicago funeral home, while millions have likely seen it since in books.
Whyd she do it? Till-Mobley explained, I wanted the world to see what they did to my baby.
It did see, and if that image doesnt touch you, your soul needs fixing.
Memory of a shooting
As a cop reporter in Gary, Ind., 20 years ago, I covered countless homicides and attempted homicides. One, a poolroom shooting involving two teens, stands out. The two dudes had been arguing, the proprietor told me I swear this is what he said over who was stronger and could lift the most weights.
One fellow proved he was at least strong enough to go home, get a shotgun, come back and shoot his 18-year-old pal in the chest. By the time I arrived, the victim was twitching, and you could actually see blood pumping from his body.
He survived the shooting. I always figured he was too stupid to die and his buddy too stupid to catch a murder rap. Seeing a big, dumb kid who reminded me of me stretched out and soaked in his own blood, though, made me go home, call up my buddy Ivan, and tell him to come and take away the gun hed purchased for me months earlier.
It would be Pollyannaish to think that just seeing what those bullets did to a bunch of innocent first-graders would make us en masse turn in our guns and study killing no more.
Some of us might, though, be inclined to ask just why a civilian needs a weapon that can fire that many rounds so quickly, and do that kind of damage to a body.
Like I said, I understand why the Newtown parents didnt do it. Still, it wouldve sent a powerful message if one of them had.

Section 24
This section presents statistics on the various information and communications media: publishing, including newspapers, periodicals, books, and software; motion pictures, sound recordings, broadcasting, and telecommunications; and information services, such as libraries. Statistics on computer use and Internet access are also included. Data on the usage, finances, and operations of the Postal Service previously shown in this section are now presented in Section 23, Transportation.
Information industry-The U.S. Census Bureau's Service Annual Survey, Information Services Sector, provides estimates of operating revenue of taxable firms and revenues and expenses of firms exempt from federal taxes for industries in the information sector of the economy. Similar estimates were previously issued in the Annual Survey of Communications Services. Data beginning 1998 are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and the information sector is a newly created economic sector. It comprises establishments engaged in the following processes: (a) producing and distributing information and cultural products, (b) providing the means to transmit or distribute these products as well as data or communications, and (c) processing data. It includes establishments previously classified in the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) in manufacturing (publishing); transportation, communications, and utilities (telecommunications and broadcasting); and services (software publishing, motion picture production, data processing, online information services, and libraries).
This new sector is comprised of industries which existed previously, were revised from previous industry definitions, or are completely new industries. Among those which existed previously are newspaper publishers, motion picture and video production, and online information services.
Revised industries include book publishers and libraries and archives. Newly created industries include database and directory publishers, record production, music publishers, sound recording studios, cable networks, wired telecommunications carriers, paging, and satellite telecommunications. The following URL contains detailed information about NAICS and provides a comparison of the SIC and NAICS <http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html>. See also the text in Section 15, Business Enterprise.
Beginning 2001, the Service Annual Survey estimates reflect the introduction of the provisional North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) for the information sector. Data for prior years are not comparable. See <http://www.census.gov/eos/www/napcs/napcs.htm>.
The 1997 Economic Census was the first economic census to cover the new information sector of the economy. The census, conducted every 5-years, for the years ending ''2'' and ''7,'' provides information on the number of establishments, receipts, payroll, and paid employees for the United States and various geographic levels.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), established in 1934, regulates wire and radio communications. Only the largest carriers and holding companies file annual financial reports which are publically available. The FCC has jurisdiction over interstate and foreign communication services but not over intrastate or local services. The gross operating revenues of the telephone carriers reporting publically available data annually to the FCC, however, are estimated to cover about 90 percent of the revenues of all U.S. telephone companies. Data are not comparable with Census Bureau AnnualSurvey because of coverage and different accounting practices for those telephone companies which report to the FCC. Information and Communications
Reports filed by the broadcasting industry cover all radio and television stations operating in the United States. The private radio services represent the largest and most diverse group of licensees regulated by the FCC. These services provide voice, data communications, point-to-point, and point-to-multipoint radio communications for fixed and mobile communicators. Major users of these services are small businesses, the aviation industry, the maritime trades, the land transportation industry, the manufacturing industry, state and local public safety and governmental authorities, emergency medical service providers, amateur radio operators, and personal radio operations (CB and the General Mobile Radio Service). The FCC also licenses entities as private and common carriers. Private and common carriers provide fixed and land mobile communications service on a forprofit basis. Principal sources of wire, radio, and television data are the FCC's Annual Report and its annual Statistics of Communications Common Carriers.
Statistics on publishing are available from the Census Bureau, as well as from various private agencies. Editor & Publisher Co., New York, NY, presents annual data on the number and circulation of daily and Sunday newspapers in its InternationalYear Book. Data on book production and prices are available from Information Today, Medford, NJ. The Book Industry Study Group, New York, NY, collects data on books sold and domestic consumer expenditures. Book purchasing data are from Ipsos, NPD, Inc., Rosemont, IL. Data on academic and public libraries are collected by the U.S. National Center for Education Statistics. Public library data are also gathered by Information Today, Medford, NJ, and the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science, Washington, DC.
Advertising-Data on advertising previously shown in this section are now presented in Section 27, Accommodation, Food Services, and Other Services.
Statistical reliability-For a discussion of statistical collection and estimation, sampling procedures, and measures of statistical reliability applicable to Census Bureau data, see Appendix III.

Didcot residents escape flats blaze
3:24pm Saturday 2nd February 2013 in News By Jamie Brooks, Contact me on 01865 425422
A kitchen fire led to a block of flats in Didcot being evacuated during the early hours of this morning.
Two fire engines from Didcot fire station were called to the fire in Torridge Drive, on the Ladygrove estate at 12.33am.
Seven residents left the flats before fire crews arrived and no-one needed medical treatment.
One crew put out the fire in the first-floor flat while a second crew searched another flat and rescued a cat.
A spokesman for Oxfordshire Fire Service said the blaze started following a fault in a fridge.
Incident commander Andy Halstead said: " It was extremely fortunate that the residents got out in good time as the smoke alarm battery had been disconnected.
"If the smoke alarm had been in working order the occupants would have been alerted much earlier and the damage would have been far less."
