vacation rental description
Nestled in the foothills of Yosemite, this unique and well-appointed
Yosemite vacation home awaits you and your family. The Tree House at
Wild Oak Farm is an exceptional rustic retreat, centrally located for
enjoying Yosemite National Park, the Merced River Canyon, and all the
charms of Mariposa and the surrounding forty-niner country.
When you arrive at Wild Oak Farm you'll leave the hustle and bustle of
your daily life behind. The 700-foot long driveway leads you to the
Tree House which is perched in the center of the 30 acre property.
Enter the doorway under the house and ascend the spiral staircase into
your vacation retreat. You won't be disapointed. The Tree House
exemplifies rustic elegance; from the massive granite fireplace and
incense-cedar tree that are the centerpoints of the entire house, to
the well-appointed bedrooms and gourmet kitchen.
The Tree House is a three bedroom, two bath house perfect for families
and friends looking for the unique vacation home with lots of special
touches. Each bedroom has views to the majestic oaks that grace the
property. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed and a sliding
door that leads directly to the wraparound deck. The Loft Room has an
olympic queen sized bed on the main floor and a full sized bed in the
sleeping loft (the kids will love the Loft Room). The Triangle Room has a
queen-sized bed, and local Yosemite art. The Tree House comfortably
accomodates six adults and can accomodate more in the loft and the sleeper
couch in the family room.The Tree House is well-equipped for young children, with a pack and play, high chair, stroller, toys and extensive baby-proofing. This thoughtfully decorated, unique house will delight your family and friends with its impressive Tree House design.
You can't beat this home's access to the wilderness of Yosemite and proximity
to the antique stores in Mariposa. The house is wrapped by a wooden deck that provides views into thesurrounding mountains. You can access the deck via the french-doors in the kitchen. The hammock on the back deck is a shady retreat in the
The house is in the quaint mountain community of Midpines, close to
Highway 140. The Tree House is tucked into the center of the thirty
private acres that make up Wild Oak Farm. Located at 2,800 feet in
elevation, Wild Oak Farm gets occasional snow in the winter and offers
great hills for sledding!
Midpines makes an ideal base for outdoor recreation. A short walk (or
bike, or drive, or ride) up the road by the farm brings you to
the Sierra National Forest Boundary. Much of the surrounding area
is Sierra National Forest or BLM land, laced with hiking trails and
Forest Service roads. The Merced River is 10 minutes away and provides
rafting (in the spring), swimming (from late Spring until Winter
rains), fishing (pretty much all year round), wild life, hiking,
camping, solitude. Once you pull into the Tree House there are no
crowds, no traffic -- yet the restaurants, shops and historic streets
of Mariposa are only ten miles to the West, and Yosemite Valley lies a
mere twenty-five miles to the East.

ANAHEIM -- Jerome Williams' recent breathing problems, the ones that landed him in the hospital shortly after his start Monday night, now have him on the 15-day disabled list. That's how the Angels cleared a spot on the roster to activate ace Jered Weaver from the DL for Wednesday's series finale against the Giants.
That means the young Garrett Richards will stay in the rotation -- at least for the time being -- starting Sunday against the Dodgers, with Dan Haren pitching Friday and Ervin Santana going Saturday.
What does it mean for Williams? That's a lot more hazy.
Williams was back with his teammates Wednesday, after undergoing a round of tests at the UC Irvine Medical Center, from where he was released Tuesday afternoon. The 30-year-old right-hander hasn't been diagnosed with anything just yet, but doesn't believe the issue has anything to do with his heart. He'll undergo more respiratory tests over the next couple of days and will be limited to lightly throwing off flat ground in the meantime.
There's no telling when he can get back on the mound. It could be days, it could be weeks.
"I'll take it easy," said Williams, who was born with asthma, which is very common in his family. "I'm not trying to go back out there right now."
Williams thinks he basically suffered an asthma attack, one he hasn't had since he was a toddler. He thinks he might've been a little amped up while facing his former team, the Giants. And though he didn't feel any respiratory issues while on the mound, his final line -- four runs, seven hits and three walks in 3 1/3 innings -- proved to him that he was simply trying to do too much.
As soon as he walked into the Angels' clubhouse, Williams passed out. When he woke up, he was in an ambulance.
For a moment, he thought he was dead.
"It's scary," Williams said, shaking his head. "It's scary."
Williams, who previously battled weight problems, was told by doctors that he has high blood pressure, but he's never taken any sort of anxiety medication. He has an inhaler, but hardly ever uses it. For now, all he can do is take it easy and finish all his tests.
Much like the concussion catcher Bobby Wilson was recently dealing with, breathing troubles like these could be very difficult to gauge or put a timeline on.
"There isn't any more clarity," manager Mike Scioscia said. "We're going to just get direction from the medical department. He's got a lot of tests that are pending, and we'll just move forward from there."

Mystery Hat
By Dr. Linda
from Camarillo, CA
About Me play therapist
I have only had this for a short time so yet developing ways to incorporate it into therapy with children and families. So far I wrote many open-ended questions on brightly colored paper for children/family members to "magically" pull out of the hat, read, and respond. It is much more fun coming our of a "magic" hat. Kids can also write their own questions. I think this would be a good activity for "Family Meetings" at home as well.

Fabulous Classroom Tool!
By One Extra Degree

There are LOTS of fun activities that you can do with the Mystery Hat! You could use it for sensory explorations, fun money practice, to choose partnerships, for grouping, working on alphabet or sight word activities, vocabulary, probability, revealing new topics with fun tangible objects, teaching predictions, and practicing just about anything else you can dream up! The red "no peeking" flap is a teachers dream! This is a wonderful product!

Well Worth it!
By The Teachers Wife
from Sunny FL
The Mystery Hat to review and it is worth every penny! You won't regret having it around! We have used it at home and in my husband's elementary classroom and all the kids go nuts when he pulls out the Mystery Hat. The uses for it are endless. We have done tactile learning and guessing what the objects are before pulling them out of the hat. We have put money in and made the kids count it when they pull it out. We have used it for rewards, secret games, phonics lessons, and so much more! I definitely recommend this!!! I was honestly a little on the fence about it because of the price but once we received it to review and realized the vastness of possibilities for it is worth it! We would definitely buy another one if something happens to ours! It's very durable though and still looks perfect after use in the classroom!

RALEIGH — Race organizers are calling for city leaders to slow down on new road closure restrictions that could force some events to change locations or dates starting in 2016.
The Raleigh City Council will consider the new road race policy at its next meeting July 1. The goal is to cut the number of events affecting individual neighborhoods and business districts, particularly areas such as Oakwood and Hillsborough Street, which sometimes are blocked multiple times a month.
Raleigh doesnt allow new races to use an area if another event is shutting down the streets on the previous or following weekend. The policy change would apply that rule to existing races as well in 2016. Organizers would be asked to work among themselves to change their dates or locations in order to conform to the new policy, said a recent memo from special events manager Derrick Remer.
If races cant work out their scheduling conflicts, the policy doesnt address who gets to keep their date and location. That worries Elizabeth Watson, director of the N.C. Victim Assistance Network, which holds a 5K awareness and fundraising run in April on the weekend that follows the Rock n Roll Marathon.
The race coincides with National Crime Victims Rights Week, and it starts with a moment of silence at the Crime Victim Memorial Garden on East Lane Street. There really isnt any room to change it, Watson said, adding that she doesnt expect the much larger Rock n Roll Marathon to change its route either.
Watson said shes also concerned by the citys plans to increase application and permit fees, which for the NC VAN 5K would double to $200. The race would likely have to raise its registration fees, she said, making it unaffordable for some.
We have many family members of homicide victims who participate in honor of their loved ones whove been murdered, she said.
Lou Buonpane of the city managers office said the new fees are designed to cover the cost of processing event applications. This year, Raleigh established a three-person special events office to handle the growing demand for races, parades and street festivals.
Even with the citys efforts to minimize traffic hassles associated with street closures, complaints from neighborhoods and businesses continue to roll in. When the Ironman Triathlon shut down Hillsborough Street for much of a recent Sunday, businesses there said sales dropped dramatically. And in Boylan Heights, residents were upset about Saturdays WakeMed Scrub Run, which effectively blocked access to about half the neighborhood.
It is totally and completely wrong for any race to block all the routes to a persons home, Boylan Heights resident Linda Caldwell wrote to the City Council. What scares me is that if I have another heart attack, there will be no way for an ambulance to reach me quickly.
Some dont think the new restrictions go far enough: The same locations could still be closed to traffic twice a month, provided the events dont exceed the citys 100-event cap.
It continues to raise the question of whether the policy should allow any particular high-frequency location to be closed down every other weekend of the year, Councilman Russ Stephenson said last week.
Sexy Schoolgirl 5K OKd
But the City Council continues to approve new events in areas such as Hillsborough Street. In March, it voted to OK the Sexy Schoolgirl 5K, which will shut down much of the street around lunchtime Aug. 9. Paula ONeal of RunRaleigh Races takes issue with those approvals amid discussion of new restrictions that will affect long-running local races.
By continuing to approve new races in the problem areas, the problems persist and are magnified, ONeal wrote to the City Council. The name of the Sexy Schoolgirl 5K is another issue. ... I question the message that is being sent and endorsed by the City of Raleigh due to the increasing problem of rape and violence against girls in the schools and on college campuses.
Buonpane said Sexy Schoolgirl followed the rules because no road closures are scheduled for surrounding weekends on Hillsborough.
Runnin Dirty LLC
Councilman Wayne Maiorano responded that he shares ONeals concern about the provocative title, but doesnt recall voting for the event. The request was labeled as Runnin Dirty LLC on the City Councils March agenda.
ONeal said race organizers need a chance to help shape the new restrictions. While the new policy was presented to the City Council during its untelevised lunch meeting in May, Remers memo to race directors went out June 13 and noted that final approval of the proposed changes would take place July 1. Remer was out of the office for a week shortly after the notice was sent.
I just think that 17 days notice is not fair, ONeal said.
Stephenson says hell ask that the issue get a hearing before a council committee in July before any final vote.

In 1937 appearance, Joyce joined Hungarians 'in the middle'
Out of the blue, footballers sometimes wander through Nabokov's prose. In commentary on John Shade's third canto in Pale Fire, Nabokov writes about two expatriate Russians who visit the mythical kingdom of Zembla as contract workers:
It was delightful to watch the two splendid Sovietchiks running about in the yard and kicking a chalk-dusty, thumping-tight soccer ball (looking so large and bald in such surroundings). Andronnikov could tap-play it on his toe up and down a dozen times before punting it rocket straight into the melancholy, surprised, bleached, harmless heavens; and Niagarin could imitate to perfection the mannerisms of a certain stupendous Dynamo goalkeeper.
While such musings are digressive—more like an aside than a sustainable trope—major competitions such as Euro 2008 regularly inspire creativity on the part of hosts eager to demonstrate legitimacy as a culture concerned with more than mere sport. Austria, nervous about its performance on the pitch, mounted a literary festival and related football tournament. Péter Zilahy captained the Hungarian writers' team to victory and, in an article for the Observer, noted how the country's cultural achievements might answer an ingrained fascination with failure: "Although we're not always brilliant at football, like the English we are superb at coming up with excuses, seeking victories in the rhetorical sense."
At Vienna's Technisches Museum, "herz:rasen—die Fußballausstellung" ("racing:heart—The Football Exhibit") presents artistic and historical responses to the sport, with Austrian accent. For example, an interactive station lets visitors see if they can overturn Austria's shock 0–1 loss to Faroe Islands in Euro 1992 qualifying. The Vienna Independent Shorts cinema program in May offered 11 films of Swiss and Austrian origin, including documentary and drama.
A community theater in Dornach, Switzerland, presents a specially commissioned musical, TraumBall 4/2/4 (DreamBall 4-2-4), featuring the unlikely union of legendary Jewish Hungarian manager Béla Guttmann with Sophia Loren. They guide a young lad in search of his football heroes (see video), including Puskás and Eusébio, whom Guttmann mentored during his European Cup–winning years at Benfica. Czech author Eduard Bass's 1922 novel Klapzuba's Eleven has been adapted for the stage by the husband-wife team of Jean-Luc Bideau and Marcela Salivarova-Bideau. The show runs Jun 17–28 at Theater Saint-Gervais in Geneva (see AFP video).

PARAGOULD, AR (KAIT)- With cold weather in the forecast for this weekend, the Arkansas Highway Department is gearing up for snow covered road conditions.
"We have learned some things, we probably think that we are better organized and got a better organized plan," said District Engineer Walter McMillan.
McMillan said they are re-stocking all their supplies and preparing their trucks for the snow.
"Today we are putting our ploughs and spreaders back on our trucks to get ready," he said. "We already re-stocked our chemical supplies and salt supplies and sand supplies from the ice storm."
On Saturday night McMillan said they will call in road crews to prep some of the bridges. His said this storm is projected to be mild compared to the winter storm.
"It appears this one is going to be more snow when the last one was more freezing rain," McMillan explained. "Clearing the roads of snow is much easier to accomplish."
"If you get to it before it gets packed down then you can pretty well push it off," he said.
But there is one thing this storm will have in common with the ice storm.
"It's going to be extremely cold afterwards, probably colder this time than it was the last time," McMillan said.
McMillan advises drivers to take their time this weekend and allow extra time on the road.

As directed by the Board of Supervisors last July, Placer County Planning staff has moved forward with the Tahoe Basin Community Plan Update (TBCPU) work program. The program has set up a public outreach strategy to ensure the county's work on its own Community Plan for the Tahoe area is done in coordination with the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency's (TRPA) Update.
There are four regions within the Placer County Community Plan for Lake Tahoe that will affect the TRPA document. They include: North Tahoe East; North Tahoe West, West Shore, and Greater Tahoe City. The working groups, also known as Plan Area Teams, each consist of nine members who will work to ensure the plans reflect the community's vision. Additionally, the four working groups will assist the county develop the zoning and design standards.
"While still early in the process, we have identified a very strong group of people committed to creating a sustainable, long term, planning vision for their communities," said Fifth District Supervisor and Board Chairwoman, Jennifer Montgomery. "Working with County staff, local Districts and most importantly the Plan Area Team members, we have great hopes for a robust, open, public and transparent process that ends up with a livable, workable vision for the future."
The Plan Area Teams have been finalized and team members have been notified. Team members are from the identified Plan Areas. The teams consist of a balanced representation of the business/commercial community, the environmental community and residents within each community.
The Board will hear a report on the status of the County's Tahoe Basin Community Plan Update at its next regular meeting, Tues., April 24, 2012.
The County will hold its first Community Workshop where the Plan Area Teams will meet and break out into working group sessions geared at the development of each Plan Area Team's zoning and design standards. The workshop is scheduled for May 9, 2012, from 4:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., at the North Tahoe Event Center, 8318 North Lake Blvd., in Kings Beach.

, according to Superintendent Bill Kendall.
Under scrutiny for, Kendall stated that district administrators will not see a raise in the current school year.
"It was just a given that we were going to take a freeze," he said. "That was decided in February, prior to the [teacher's union] negotiations. That was really never even a topic of discussion, it was more of just an understanding."
Kendall continued that while he is under a five-year contract with the district through 2017, the rest of the administration is on annual contracts. Such contracts are written to allow for administrators to apply for tenure—something he cannot do unless he was rehired by the district as a teacher.
Administrator salaries range from $68,000 to $172,000—not counting Kendall—which represented an outlay of $5.8 million for the district in 2011–12, about 7 percent of the district's overall budget for the year. Kendall said that current contracts reflect those numbers. The new contracts will be available for public viewing on Oct. 1, via the District 228 website.
As for Kendall, who received a $199,969 salary for the 2011–12 school year, he said that his compensation is based on his experience and his duties overseeing the district as a whole, and shouldn't be compared to that of teachers or other administrators.
"The amount of responsibility is different," he said. "As a superintendent, you're responsible for four high schools, 5,000 students, close to 500 staff and over an $100,000,000 budget that's ultimately the responsibility of our board. So, I'm not trying to justify my salary, it is what it is and people are aware of it, there's a lot of responsibility that comes with that."
As for the public perception that administration and the district is unwisely spending money, Kendall said he wasn't sure where that idea came from, but that it wasn't true.
"There's no doubt about it, these are difficult financial times," he said. "But I'm absolutely proud of our teachers, proud of the work they're doing. What I would strongly suggest is people do is make an appointment.
"Come in and see our schools in action, see what's going on in there before you judge it. There's good things going on in all our schools and our administration team is ready to answer those questions, to get people into our schools and see what's going on."

Joseph Robinette "Joe" Biden, Jr. (pronunciation: /ˈdʒoʊsɨf rɒbɨˈnɛt ˈbaɪdən/; born November 20, 1942) is the 47th and current Vice President of the United States, serving under President Barack Obama. A Democrat, he was a United States Senator from Delaware from January 3, 1973 until his resignation on January 15, 2009, following his election to the Vice Presidency.
Biden was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania and lived there for ten years before moving to Delaware. He became an attorney in 1969, and was elected to a county council in 1970. Biden was first elected to the Senate in 1972 and became the sixth-youngest senator in U.S. history. He was re-elected to the Senate six times, was the fourth most senior senator at the time of his resignation, and is the 15th-longest serving Senator in history. Biden was a long-time member and former chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. His strong advocacy helped bring about U.S. military assistance and intervention during the Bosnian War. He opposed the Gulf War in 1991. He voted in favor of the Iraq War Resolution in 2002, but later proposed resolutions to alter U.S. strategy there. He has also served as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, dealing with issues related to drug policy, crime prevention, and civil liberties, and led creation of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act and Violence Against Women Act. He chaired the Judiciary Committee during the contentious U.S. Supreme Court nominations of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas.

ALEXANDRIA, La. (News Channel 5 ) – A second chance may not have helped an Alexandria woman turn over a new leaf.
According to Rapides Parish Sheriff's Office, they have arrested Nicole Damone Leach, 32, of Alexandria, for a second time in reference to burglary.
Leach was first arrested on August 14th for allegedly dressing up in scrubs and posing as a health sitter in order to target homes to burglarize.
A jewelry box was reported missing from a residence on August 6th. Deputies said they located the jewelry box at a pawn shop on August 12th. It was there they were able to gather a description and determine Leach as a prime suspect. Later that day, deputies received a call of another home burglary, and again a jewelry box was stolen.
On August 14th, Leach was arrested for the burglaries and charged with theft for $500 and for possession of stolen goods worth $300. She was later released on $750 bond.
It wasn't very long, before she was back in the slammer. On August 23th, Leach was taken back into custody, and burglary of a dwelling was added to her other list of charges.
RPSO said that Leach is believed to be responsible for a series of burglaries that have occurred in the area.
"If anyone has had a burglary that they have not reported or had contact with Leach coming by their homes in the last several weeks, we encourage them to call our Detectives at 318-473- 6727. We are still investigating this suspect and believe there may be more crimes that she has committed" said Sheriff William Earl Hilton.
Leach was transported to the Rapides Parish Detention Center. Her bond is set at $500,000.
The investigation is ongoing.

My interest in neurobiology stems from my lifelong curiosity about animals and animal behavior. In 2008, I graduated from the University of Chicago with an A.B. in Biological Sciences (specialization in Neuroscience). When I'm not in lab, I'm volunteering at the Duke Lemur Center.
In the Wightman lab, I study in vivo serotonin transmission in the basal ganglia using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. Serotonin dynamics in the intact brain are remarkably dissimilar to what has been predicted based on characterizations of serotonin in slices, in vivo dopamine release, and models of neurotransmission. Characterizing the mechanisms that mediate these differences may lead to improved pharmacotherapies for depression and anxiety-related disorders.
I am the social coordinator and maintain the website for the Wightman Lab. I also participate in DNA Day and judge science fairs at elementary schools in the area.

There are many residential areas along Corkscrew Road in Lee County and people here are used to seeing a few large trucks drive pass their community -- but nothing like the amount they might see in the near future.
That's why Lee County commissioners will be voting on a resolution, they want the beach renourishment for Collier County project to stay in Collier County.
Four hundred truck trips a day. Six days a week for three to four months -- all part of Collier County beach renourishment project.
"I'm sorry that they are going to have to look at their budget one more time, but I think that they should," said Lee County Commissioner Larry Kiker.
But since Collier County is planning on using lee county roads to get the sand to the beaches -- Lee County leaders are speaking out.
"As a government official, the one thing we swear to public safety and welfare and quite frankly that doesn't end at the county line," Kiker said.
Kiker says the large trucks driving through Corkscrew Road are a safety issue for the people who live near by.
Lee County Manager Roger Desjarlais demands an alternative plan.
"We are unable to come to an agreement with Collier County. They continue to refuse to take off the traffic off Lee County roads and so we are asking the county commissioners to pass a resolution objecting formally to the sand truck traffic coming through Lee County," Desjarlais said.
The resolution requests that Collier County agrees to use only Collier County roads to haul sand to the beaches. If Collier County declines, then Lee County requests that the trucks travel through Alico Road to I-75. The resolution also requests that Collier County formally commit to funding any road repairs determined by Lee County Department of Transportation caused by this project.
Dejarlais says Collier County never included Lee County in their plans.
"We are feeling a level of frustration because we weren't notified about this project until after everything was already set and contracted for in Collier County," Desjarlais said.
Lee County commissioners will vote on this resolution tomorrow -- before formally presenting it to Collier County. We have reached out to Collier County for a comment, but we have not heard back from them.

Softball Volunteers At Habitat for Humanity
FORT MYERS, Fla. – This past weekend, the FGCU softball team took time out of their busy schedule to help Habitat for Humanity paint an entire house for a deserving family in Lee County.
The Green and Blue volunteered numerous hours over the weekend to help prepare the home for its delivery to its new owners later this week.
Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, Christian ministry founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a decent, safe and affordable place to live. The organization helps build with people in need regardless of race or religion. They welcome volunteers and supporters from all backgrounds.
"Southwest Florida has been so great to FGCU, our athletics program and specifically to our softball team, that we always want to take advantage of an opportunity to give back," said head coach David Deiros. "By participating in a project with Habitat for Humanity, we are helping someone realize the American dream of owning a home and they in turn will do the same for someone else. Not to mention, our student-athletes helped to accelerate completion of the project as we are two-for-two this year as "closers", way to go Eagles!"
The positive experience has the Eagles encouraging everyone to "step up to the plate" and "pitch in" with Habitat for Humanity.
The Green and Blue are preparing for their season opener on Feb. 10-12 at the USF Tournament in Tampa, Fla. FGCU has 11 returners from last year's squad that went 31-25, including a 14-6 record in the Atlantic Sun.

Students at Carver
High School in Columbus spent their day outside instead of in class on Friday
and planted trees behind their school in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.
The Keep
Columbus Beautiful commission, along with other organizations, provided six
different types of trees to the school to serve as a tree walk for students.
Gloria Weston-Smart, Executive Director of Keep
Columbus Beautiful, explains why they chose this activity as a celebration of Martin
Luther King Jr.
"Well, we
felt like we wanted to do a service project that will continuously give back to
the community, because that's what he was all about, and it also provides an
opportunity for our kids to be engaged in doing a service to our environment,"
said Weston-Smart.
They believe these trees will also be a
source of pride for Carver High School students one day, who will be able to
say they planted them with their own hands.

Representatives of local school corporations and other organizations began a community conversation last year concerning Cass County's teen birth rate. The rate has dropped in recent years, but it's still way too high.
The issue is among those being tackled by a coalition called Better Health for Cass County, and it's one the community simply must address.
Teen moms are more likely to experience complications during childbirth, and their babies are more likely to have health challenges such as low birth weight. Boys born to teenage mothers are more likely to wind up in jail.
Addressing this issue will be our No. 1 priority of 2013.
The coming year will also see much discussion about a plan to develop a $500 million trash-to-energy system for Logansport Municipal Utilities. LMU expects to have proposals by early this month, and it plans to make a decision in February. After that will come perhaps two years of regulatory action followed by another two years of construction.
Our goal through all of this will be to keep our readers informed on the project and its implications and to ensure that officials honor their pledge to keep the process open and aboveboard.
This year will also bring the long-awaited opening of the Hoosier Heartland. Efforts to dress up the city's entryways have begun, and officials are already planning for the development boom near Ivy Tech. The new highway could well change the face of Logansport.
Our goal will be to make sure that the new highway becomes an economic benefit rather than a way to bypass Logansport entirely.
Another key objective for the new year will be to promote the creation of new jobs in Logansport and Cass County through a coordinated economic development effort. Our goal will be to encourage a shared economic vision for the region and to make sure the key players find common ground.
We also will support Mayor Ted Franklin in his efforts to rid neighborhoods of blighted properties and explore the development of new housing.
We will encourage local government officials to save taxpayer dollars through collaboration and consolidation of services, and we'll carry out our watchdog role by holding public officials accountable.
We will support local schools in their efforts to improve student performance, and we'll encourage state officials to make certain that the measures it is using are both accurate and fair.
We'll continue efforts to identify this community's assets and promote them. Logansport and Cass County have much to brag about, and we'll take seriously our role as the community's cheerleader.
We enter 2013 with a great deal of optimism. Logansport and Cass County stand poised for an exciting year, and we pledge to keep our readers informed of developments.
Those are our goals for the coming year. If you have other goals, we'd encourage you to share them.
2013 agenda
• Champion efforts to lower Cass County's teen pregnancy rate.
• Keep an eye on efforts to develop a trash-to-energy system for Logansport Municipal Utilities and ensure that officials honor their pledge to keep the process open and above board.
• Make sure the new Hoosier Heartland becomes an economic benefit.
• Promote the creation of new jobs in Logansport and Cass County through a coordinated economic development effort.
• Encourage improved housing in the community by ridding neighborhoods of blighted properties and exploring the development of new housing.
• Continue to encourage local government to save taxpayer dollars through collaboration and consolidation of services.
• Carry out our watchdog role by holding public officials accountable.
• Support local schools in their efforts to improve student performance.
• Continue efforts to identify the community's assets and promote them both here and elsewhere.

STEVE OUELLETTE, Movie Review
---- — Every once in a while, a movie comes along that can actually make a difference in people's lives. The documentary "Bully" is one of those movies.
Created by filmmaker Lee Hirsch over a year's time, with one small, handheld camera, "Bully" follows five families who have been affected to varying degrees by bullying in the school system.
Two families have lost bullied children to suicide. Fourteen-year-old Ja'Meya was pushed to the point where she brought her mother's gun onto a school bus. Kelby, 16, is ostracized — by students and teachers — for being gay.
Most poignant is the story of 12-year-old Alex, who was born prematurely and now suffers every day. Gangly but good-hearted, Alex is physically and emotionally tortured — much of it caught on film — simply because he's got bad teeth, thick glasses and an awkward manner.
"Bully" doesn't spend any time talking to experts or educators or child psychologists. It merely tells the stories of these five families, trying to make sense of a situation that we're told touches 18 million American students every year. The film is emotionally powerful, and painful at times. It will — or should — make any parent cry.
The film doesn't get into the heads of the bullies, and it doesn't really offer a solution. It certainly brings awareness of the problem, however, and it will definitely spark discussion.
It can also show adults how NOT to handle the situation, a task handled in the film by one infuriating administrator who seems to think having a victim shake hands with his tormentor will make everything better.
"Bully," unfortunately, only has a one-week run locally, ending today at the Cumberland 12 Cinemas.
If it pops up again at the theater — or when it is available on DVD — it should be required viewing at every junior high school in the area, and really, the country.
I don't know if "Bully" can penetrate the skulls of the actual bullies, but it will let victims know they are not alone, will help adults understand this is not just "boys being boys" and perhaps most importantly, it could make bystanders realize that they can make a difference.
Rental Recommendation: No, it's not a realistic interpretation of bullying, but the good guys will win in "Revenge of the Nerds." Grade: B

The Fit Guide
Our GANT by Michael Bastian casual shirt tapers in at the waist for a slim fit and features a slightly shorter than normal length. Add to that details such as longer sleeves, double cuff adjuster and a relaxed, button-down collar, and you have a shirt that exudes casual style and versatility.
The button down collar
The collar has a soft roll and three buttons - two at the front and one centre back - for a comfortable fit and casual feel.
The cuffs
A slightly longer sleeve ends in a double cuff adjuster, allowing you to wear your cuff loose or tight to suit your look and (style) mood.
The chest pocket
Positioned on the left, the flap pocket lies flush against the chest and a single button closure keeps the contents secure.
The locker loop
A GANT invention originally designed to allow our shirts to hang in a gym locker, the GANT-embroidered locker loop , located below the rear neck button, is now an authentic sign that you're sporting an American Sportswear classic.
The Size GuideFitted shirts (cm)
FittedXSSMLXLXXL Neck363739414344 Chest869197107117127 Sleeve818486899191
How to measure
Measure the circle of your neck, keep the tape a bit loose.
Pull the tape around you from your shoulder blades to the broadest part of your chest. Keep your elbows to your sides.
Bend your elbow in 90 degrees into the side of your body. Hold the tape at the center back of your neck. Measure in 3 points from the center back neck to the shoulder and down to the wrist.
Our Fitted Shirts
The GANT by Michael Bastian shirt is a fitted shirt with a tapered body, and a slightly longer sleeves than our Mainline shirts. GANT by Michael Bastian is a much slimmer fit than GANT. We recommed sizing up in GANT by Michael Bastian. For example, if you wear a Medium in GANT, expect to wear a Large in GANT by Michael Bastian.

Angle of Repose
Whether you loved or loathed high school geometry, you probably never dreamed that learning about triangles might someday help you protect your back, improve your posture, breathe more deeply, and decrease the wear and tear on your hips.
But it's true: A refresher course on the geometry of triangles can help you understand how to do Trikonasana (Triangle Pose) more easily and reap the benefits from it. The actions in Triangle may seem subtle, but they can have profound consequences. When you're folded sideways into Triangle, you build strength in your torso muscles, which support the weight of your spine, rib cage, and head against the pull of gravity. As you train the muscles around your shoulders to keep your arms in place, you're not only teaching yourself not to slump but also opening your chest so your lungs can expand more fully. And the increased range of motion you eventually experience in your hips means you distribute wear inside the joints over more of their surface, rather than consistently stressing only a small part of the cartilage lining the joint.

Configuring Netfilter/iptables with Shorewall
Setting the Table
When users think about their workstations at home, they often forget about security. But danger is out there,waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting. Shorewall helps everyday Linux users keep the intruders away.
The only way to make your system completely safe from attack is never to connect to the Internet. Whenever you open the door to go out, you open the door for a potential hacker to get it. Some users have the mistaken belief that intruders only attack high-profile sites and would not be interested in a personal home workstation. The truth is that every single computer on the Internet is in danger of attack – even computers with dial-up connections. In many cases, these attacks are blind, brute force attacks, where the attacker tries a long list of known security holes.

On a wonderful Sunday afternoon (after some unbelieveble fruit pie) I felt inspired to get out and record
some of the beauty of the sunset over Bega. I took the pictures for two panoramas that you can enjoy
here. I also had my tea and some chapters of the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn carressed by a smooth
wind and the gentle rays of the sun :)
Later I thought that applying SNS HDR would add details and truthfulness; when seeing it was a little too

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.
