|Vilas County Court report
Jury finds James Lacson guilty
By Ken Anderson
News Correspondent
James Lacson, 36, of Margate, Fla., faced charges of maintaining a drug-trafficking place, possession with intent to deliver tetrahydro-cannabinol (THC) and criminal damage to property greater that $2,500.Following the trial and verdict, substitute Judge Leon Stenz of Forest County revoked bond and he was taken into custody by the Vilas County Sheriff's Department. No sentencing date has been set.
Vilas County District Attorney Al Moustakis called a number of witnesses during the trial, with his primary witness being Ramon Pineiro. Pineiro was taken into custody in a law enforcement raid at 1399 S. Farming Road in the town of Arbor Vitae last February. He described the grow operation at 2715 Whisky Trail in the town of Lincoln and the move to Arbor Vitae.
Defense Attorney Gary Cirilli attacked his testimony, classifying Pineiro as a career criminal and a career liar and alleging his testimony was tainted by a plea deal he made with the district attorney.
Cirilli also tried to convince the jury there was no evidence collected that tied his client to the Whiskey Trail home rented from Jim Will of Eagle River since no fingerprints or DNA was ever collected.
While executing a search warrant at the town Lincoln residence, officers found about 160 marijuana plants in various rooms turned into growing chambers. In addition, an electrical box had apparently been jumped to reduce the electrical bill.
Pineiro pled guilty last April to three felony charges with three others being dismissed. His $20,000 cash bond was reduced to a $10,000 signature bond with a sentencing date of Oct. 4.
Moustakis claimed Lacson and Pineiro were partners in growing marijuana and needed another person to sell the product. That person is alleged to be Kevin Shumake of Arbor Vitae, who has a trial date of Oct. 2-3.
According to the complaint, the defendants had the marijuana grow operation at the Whiskey Trail Road location from June 2010 to June 2011 and at the S. Farming Road from April 15, 2011, to Feb. 7, 2012.
In other felony cases, John A Price, 61, of St. Germain, charged with attempted strangulation/suffocation, misdemeanor battery and disorderly conduct Feb. 26, and two counts of felony bail jumping, misdemeanor bail jumping and disorderly conduct July 23, had a pretrial conference set for Sept. 24 at 9:45 a.m. and a plea hearing set for Sept. 30 at 2:30 p.m.
According to the complaint, Price was allegedly involved in an incident at Legends of the North bar in St. Germain July 23, first squealing his tires in the parking lot and then getting in a verbal argument with another man, resulting in a fight.
Walter C. Pappas, 47, of Lac du Flambeau was properly convicted of seventh-offense operated while intoxicated by a Vilas County jury Aug. 7, Judge Nielsen said last week during an oral ruling.
The defendant's attorney, Brian Bennett, said the court should not consider the implied consent conviction from the events of Nov. 12, 1994. Pappas will be sentenced Oct. 14 at 9 a.m.
Samuel N. Vazquez, 31, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with manufacturing/delivery of marijuana, possession of marijuana and misdemeanor bail jumping, was bound over and entered a not guilty plea. A pretrial conference was set for Sept. 17 at 10:30 a.m.
According to the complaint, Vazquez allegedly sold three grams of marijuana to an informant during a controlled purchase between June 16 and June 18 in Lac du Flambeau.
Ronald P. Peterson III, 22, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with felony bail jumping, operating without a license, second offense in three years, and possession of synthetic cannabinoid, had a preliminary hearing set for Sept. 9 at 3 p.m. It was noted that other pending cases involving Peterson will be set for status on the same date. His $300 cash bond was continued.
Shane M. Chapman, 37, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with substantial battery, will have a preliminary hearing Oct. 21 at 1:45 p.m. It was noted Chapman doesn't qualify for public defender representation. According to the complaint, Chapman allegedly struck another man, who was sleeping on the couch, in the face July 24 in Lac du Flambeau. Chapman had a preliminary breath test of 0.137% and told officers the reason he hit the man was because "it's been building up."
Susan S. Wolfe, 37, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with manufacture/delivery of non-narcotics, had an initial appearance adjourned to Sept. 19 at 10:30 a.m. in Lac du Flambeau. Her $2,500 signature bond was continued with the condition that she possess no prescribed medications unless those prescribed by a doctor and in the container it was prescribed in. According to the complaint, Wolfe was caught on a surveillance tape at the Lake of the Torches Casino Feb. 12 allegedly selling Suboxone to another person.
Theodore E. Vetterneck, 42, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with delivery of schedule I?or II narcotics and possession of narcotics drugs, had a preliminary hearing set for Sept. 9 at 2:30 p.m. According to the complaint, Vetterneck sold four oxymorphone pills for $80 in a controlled purchase June 26 in Lac du Flambeau.
Michael J. Poupart, 27, of Lac du Flambeau, who received a deferred entry of judgment (DEJ) on a charge of manufacture/delivery of marijuana March 25 and heard a motion to revoke the DEJ June 4, was back in court last week to learn a new petition was made to withdraw the motion to revoke the DEJ. Poupart also was convicted of possession of marijuana and served five days in the county jail. An additional 75 days in jail was added as a condition of his 12 months' probation.
Robert M. Poupart, 42, of Minocqua, charged with possession of a firearm by a felon, had a preliminary hearing adjourned to Sept. 19 at 11 a.m. in Lac du Flambeau. According to the complaint, Lac du Flambeau Police Department officers were making a property check at 1169 Akiwensi Dr. in Lac du Flambeau March 15 and found the door open. A search of the residence revealed an AR 15 Bushmaster rifle in the house and Poupart is a convicted felon.
Melissa R. Ackley, 28, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with conspiracy to commit delivery of non-narcotics and possession of drug paraphernalia July 26, and battery of prisoners and felony bail jumping Aug. 19, had a preliminary hearing set for Oct. 19 at 2:30 p.m. According to the complaint, Ackley and another female inmate got in a fight in the Vilas County Jail Aug. 19.

Central Air Conditioner System Maintenance and Installation
Are you tired of feeling hot and sticky in your home? Let the experts at Michael & Son install central AC in your house. Whether you need to repair a broken unit, update an outdated system or install residential central air conditioning for the first time, we can help.
Our quiet and efficient whole-house central AC systems will provide your family with hours and years of comfort. We have a variety of central air systems for Alexandria, Arlington, VA, Rockville, MD and Washington D.C. metro residents to ensure the maximum energy efficiency for your home. Not all AC units are created equal, which is why we will only recommend the best for your home.
Size is especially important in selecting a central air conditioner system. If you pick out a system that is too small, the unit won't be able to keep up and will have to run longer - and use more energy - to cool your home. Likewise, if you have a unit that is too large, the system will use more energy than necessary. In this case, the system will shut off sooner than a more appropriately sized unit and will not allow enough air to circulate and extract the proper amount of moisture from the air, leaving the air feeling clammy and damp.
Our experts can recommend the right size and style of unit for your home to ensure the maximum efficiency and performance. Simply give us a call to learn more at 1-800-948-MIKE (6453) or fill out our Request Service form.
Contact us for central AC maintenance, installation and repair in Washington D.C., Maryland and Virginia, including Rockville, MD, Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax and the surrounding suburbs.

Prior to assuming my role as managing editor, I had the chance to spend a few days in Gulf Shores with my family.
As always, the trip down takes what seems like an eternity. But once you turn off I-65 onto Gulf Shores Parkway — despite the fact you're still about 45 minutes away — you feel a sense of relief that you're almost to the end of Alabama.
When you finally pull into Gulf Shores, you feel like you're in a beach-lover's heaven.
We were only there a few days but any time spent on the coast is well worth the trip.
Despite a nasty suburn and a bout of food poisoning, I'd go back today if I could.
I had the opportunity to go down to Oakman Wednesday to spend a little time at the inaugural Blues and BBQ Festival put on by local radio station Oldies 101.5 FM and the Bull Pen Steakhouse. While I'm not as up on the blues as many may be, I still enjoyed the music.
Earl 'Guitar' Williams kicked of the day, followed by Microwave Dave & the Nukes and Oakman's very own Clay Swafford. The night ended with 92-year-old blues legend Gip Gipson of Bessemer, who can still play a guitar and sing the blues as well as anyone.
Credit for the event's success has to go to Brett Elmore of Oldies 101.5 and Richard 'Bull' Corry of the Bull Pen Steakhouse, who put in countless hours of work to ensure that everything went off without a hitch. I'm sure Elmore and Corry would say that everyone who helped out — from the folks taking up tickets at the front gate to the ones who worked security and sold the barbecue — played as big a role in the day being so successful.
I just hope the Blues & BBQ Festival becomes an annual event.

A change of scenery might have been just what Titans P Brett Kern needed to turn around his career.
After the Broncos released him six games into the 2009 season, Kern, a third-year pro from Toledo, signed with Tennessee, and in 10 games with the Titans, he looked like a worthy successor to Craig Hentrich, Tennessee's longtime punter. Kern posted a 41.4-yard net average in 37 punts with the Titans, a vast improvement over his 34.5-yard net average in 27 punts with Denver.
The Broncos began 6-0, but in their Oct. 19 win at San Diego, one of Kern's punts was returned for a touchdown by the Chargers' Darren Sproles. One week later, Kern was released. Kern said Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels didn't cite any specific reason for the move other than that the club wanted to "try something different," as Kern said McDaniels told him. Kern, who had never been cut from a team before, was surprised, but that emotion later gave way to relief, saying that it felt like "a weight lifted off my shoulders, because there was a lot of pressure down there."
Said Kern: "In Denver, there was a sense of urgency to perform your best, and if you didn't, (there was a) 'you were going to get cut' sort of feel."
Kern quickly landed with the Titans, who lost Hentrich to a season-ending injury earlier in the season. And Tennessee, according to Kern, set out to reassure him that a bad punt or two wasn't going to cost him his job, with head coach Jeff Fisher and Hentrich particularly helping in that regard.
A self-described perfectionist, Kern, 24, consistently sought advice from Hentrich, a 17-year veteran. "He was telling me, every punt doesn't have to be perfect," Kern said, noting that Hentrich would tell him that "you're going to have a lot more good punts than bad punts."
And that was the case in Kern's stint with the Titans. Only 14 of his 37 punts were returned, and for a grand total of just 55 yards. Also, 18 punts were downed inside the 20-yard line.
With Hentrich retiring, Kern has the inside track on being the Titans' punter this season. He's participating in the club's offseason workouts and recently began kicking again, but he had begun working out on his own for two months previously. Kern, who has a strong leg, is working to increase his hang time and cut down on the longer, line-drive punts that enhance a punter's gross average but can set up big returns.
Whether he improves his hang time or not, Kern will enter his third NFL season with a new mindset.
"The biggest thing for me was coming to grips that you're going to make mistakes," he said. He added, "The primary thing was trying to fix those mistakes."

CM is civis maximus. It's the "other board" that Morris runs. Its an... unusual place. It's like a second community for EnWorlders where you can do whatever you like; argue about politics, call people dirty names, etc.
It's like a self-selected sub-section of EnWorld; I've visited a few times, but I can't really figure out what criteria people are self-selecting on (which probably means it's criteria I don't have) so I never seem to really get into it.Interested in playing 4th edition online?

Thanks for the info.
Yeah, it sounds like Civis Maximus contrasts quite a lot with EN World, which generally seems relatively stricly moderated. Clever name, it suits the concept.

Spa Ozonator Features:
The Spa Eclipse is perfect for just about any spa and using DEL's patented CD Chip technology has many advantages. It is energy efficient, which means lower operating costs, and because there is no starter or ballast, the isolated circuitry of the Spa Eclipse eliminates voltage spikes. The Spa Eclipse chip is also water resistant and generates substantially less heat than UV systems. The Spa Eclipse has a viewing window which allows you to see the CD energy field. Unlike UV Lamps that falsely indicate that there is still ozone, the CD Chip diminishes its glow when a replacement chip is needed at 9,000 hours. NOTE: This Dual Voltage unit comes with a Mini JJ cord attached and an included parts bag.

Bottle dated November '10. Picked up in Montreal.
Thick, lingering white head with some nice lacing. Dark blonde "Extra Pale Ale". Cool artwork..sexy ginger with a city skyline and and mind control device of some sort..broadcasting, "drink me, drink me.."
Mild sweet citrus aroma, caramel malts.
Taste is slightly on the bitter side and I was expecting something a little hoppier from DDC. Nice carbonation and overall mouthfeel.
Not at all a bad beer but not a great beer like many others from DDC.

Served in a chilled glass
Appearance - beer pours a hazy ale colour with a decent amount of carbonation. the beer has an off-white head, that dissipates quickly. there is a decent amount of lacing.
Smell - i can smell some hops, some earthy tones, little sweetness from caramel. there might be a bit of an orange/zesty citrus smell too.
Taste - i can taste the hops along with the earthy tones. there isn't much of a "lasting" taste, kind of comes and goes. there is not much caramel or sweetness. the citrus comes through at the end.
Mouthfeel - the added carbonation brings a little more bitterness and good mouth volume forward. I enjoyed this beer a lot more during the mouthfeel.
Drinkability - this is an ok beer, didnt pack a lot of punch. overall, was refreshing.

11.2oz bottle poured into a ommegang chalice.
Pours a really pretty ruby amber color with a thin white head. Nose is very similar to maharaja or great divide but with honey.
Taste is Sweet, sharp and lightly malty. It's drinkable and very smooth. The hops are really nice and floral.

Bottle from Freund. Things I liked: the label, the looks (unfiltered light orange body with good sized head). This beer is at the end of its shelf life, a little bitterness, an above average mouthfeel, but was expecting it to be hoppier and more citrus.Also expecting hop aroma.

A-some sort of Copper amber. Very loose, sticky, bubbly head. Lots of clumpy lacing.
S- honey, floral and lots of alcohol especially considering its only 5.5
T- reminds me of a great quality mccoy honey pale ale. No dirty macro taste here. Very floral and citrusy hoppiness. a nice sweetness and plenty of smooth bitterness to counter. Isn't this too hoppy to be an extra pale ale.
M- Medium mouthfeel. Low carbonation. Good.
D- Very good. Bomber material.
Surprisingly good. Not what I expected when seeing extra pale ale but still a winner. Would enjoy trying it on tap at the brewpub.

Bottle: Poured a hazy amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of bitter and citrus hops is more pronounced then I was expecting but still very enjoyable. Taste is a nice enough mix between hoppy notes with bitter and lightly citrusy flavour and some big caramel malt backbone. Body is fuller then I would have expected with great carbonation. Well brewed and quite refreshing for the summertime but also hoppier then the style would suggest.

Beer color is copper and slightly hazy (I.e., veiled). The head is sticky and soapy looking. Aroma is light in intensity. Slightly fruity. Nothing out of this world, however good. Taste wise, it is fruity, citrusy. Notice some honey in the taste. Finish is better and dry. Medium body. Taste linger a little in the mouth.
Overall this is a nice pale ale. Delicious, refreshing and easy to drink. A nice session beer. It is also, IMO better than their paienne beer.
A good beer.

On tap at the brewpub, poured into imperial pint glass. Listed as a india cream ale. Creamy mouthfeel, i assume a nitro pour. Bitterness is english in nature, i suppose that goes along with the cream ale style. Frothy light beige head, high retention, sticky lacing. Nice, fresh grassy hop aroma, light malt sweetness. Biscuity and mild bitterness in taste, easy and refreshing to drink.

Brewed for the 30th anniversary of CIBL 101,5 Radio-Montreal (never heard of them). Bottled April 2010 but the bottles have only now been released.
Poured from a 341ml. bottle.
Appearance: Major foam accumulating, easily 4 fingers that leaves lots of lacing behind and a nice orange, hazy body.
Smell: Orange, lemon and a healthy dose of hops. Bitter but with a zesty fruit twist.
Taste: Nice sticky hops with a long lasting bitterness that never overdoes it. Malt rounds things out nicely. A bit of pine but not much. Raw and herbal.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied with a bit of astringency but still manages to remain balanced.
Drinkability: Very pleasing to drink. I could have this on a regular basis.
Overall: A tasty APA that holds its own. DDC does it again even in discreet forms such as a pale ale.

This one was a clear amber color with not much head. It coated the glass nicely though. The smell was similar to most belgian blondes. A little spicy, bready, lemon citrus, and hoppy. The hops aren't overpowering in the flavor. Lemon/grapefruit stand out the most. Seems pretty straightforward.

12oz Bottle
Appearance - The beer pours a hazy amber colour with a very large frothy white coloured head. There is a low amount of carbonation showing and there is some very nice lacing running in stages down the sides of the glass. The head lasted for several minutes before it began to dissipate.
Smell - hops, caramel, malts, citrus
Taste & Mouth - The beer actually has quite a bit of carbonation which is surprising considering its appearance. Most of the taste consists of hops, caramel, and lemons. There are also notes of pine and a honey sweetness. I also picked up on some fruit esters. The beer finishes with a bitter hop aftertaste.
Drink - Another fantastic DDC beer that I'm happy I tried. They should make this a regular beer in their rotation.

Bottle from ZorPrime, 341ml into a tulip. Dated November 2010, thanks Eric!
Pours an orange brown, with a couple fingers of dense white head. Good lace, with minimal retention. Nose is dominated by caramel and some faded hops, remnants of which suggest some grapefruit and orange. Also some caramel and general bread. Taste is moderately bitter initially, with some citrus - lemon and grapefruit. A hint of some berries which is interesting, and some milder dark tea notes. Bread again, and less caramel than the nose. Lighter medium mouthfeel, and the slightest hint of alcohol. Higher carbonation than I'd prefer, but decent overall. Although I'm assuming this was a one shot deal, I'd be curious to try this fresh.

Thanks papat444 for this little gem! No date on the bottle.
The beer pours a clear deep amber to orange-red with a nice head that descends to nothing without lace... Aromas are ridiculously interesting with a sweet and heavily malty nose with caramel and burnt sugar. My first thought was: "Barley Wine?". The taste is equally thick and complex. There is a nice earthy and deep hop character that hits you that covers up most of the malt base. The caramel comes through and they play very well against each other. Thick in the mouth it is enjoyable, thought a little too thick stylistically for me, though the carbonation helps clear it a bit.
An excellent beer.

Thanks freud for bringing this down. Sampled with sleepnbballrlife.
11.2 oz twist-top bottle. "Bottled 4/2010" but just released recently...hmm.
Appearance: Hazy copper with thin white head.
Nose: Some honey and flowers, a weird almost oxy aroma, but it might just be a yeast thing. Some wet grass aromas too.
Palate: Immediately English Pale malts come across, some biscuit malt, clover honey (props), orange peel, some faint bitterness so a hot second. Grassy and wet hay flavors. Orange blossom honey and flaked grains (props) on the finish.
Notes: Upon initial nosing, I was somewhat concerned that this was oxidized, but then once I tasted it realized it was an interaction between the yeast and the English-style malt character. A tasty brew.

Local Author Captures Beauty of Sixth Street, Mid-MarketPaul Hogarthbyline' Jan. 15' 2009
I first met Mark Ellinger in 2002, when he lived in a residential hotel on Sixth Street. I invited him to join the Central City SRO Collaborative, where he proved himself an effective tenant activist. But it was Mark's hobby as a photographer where he truly thrived, and for years his pictures of the neighborhood SRO's have been displayed at various art exhibits – from Chris Daly's Office at City Hall to the Tenderloin/North-of-Market Community Benefit District. Now, Mark has finished a three-volume book set of his photography called Up From the Deep – covering Sixth Street, Mid-Market and the Tenderloin. The first two volumes are now available for sale online, and the third will be released later this year. As the district's historic designation sparks a renewed interest in the surrounding area, Up From the Deep offers a valuable contribution to denizens and visitors alike – told with deep appreciation from the perspective of a long-time resident.

Brian Osborne, Superintendent, released on Sunday a letter to the South Orange - Maplewood School District and families:
South Orange Maplewood School Community,
The tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut, has shaken all of us. We continue to grieve, along with the rest of the nation, for the families impacted by this senseless violence.
Whether you have discussed the event with your children or not, they are likely to hear about it from other students on the bus, walk to school, or playground. We therefore suggest that you consider sharing information about the tragedy with your children, in a way that feels comfortable for you, before they return to school. Some possible talking points are included below.
We have prepared developmentally appropriate plans to support elementary students when they return to school on Monday:
- Teachers will maintain the daily class routine, to provide a feeling of normalcy.
- Teachers will avoid dwelling on details of the event, and focus instead on providing support and tools for coping with sad events.
- K-2 teachers will not raise the topic, but if students bring up questions, will listen and gently redirect to a discussion of what you can do when you feel sad or worried.
- 3-5 Teachers will have brief class meetings to provide students with a forum to talk and get support in a structured, safe environment. These meetings will focus on coping skills and school safety, not on the specific details of the event.
- Teachers will identify any students who are experiencing anxiety, and follow up with them privately.
- Social workers are available to offer additional support to any students who are experiencing anxiety. If you think your child needs this support, please let your teacher know.
Guidance counselors and social workers are available to offer additional support to any secondary students who are experiencing anxiety. Please contact the guidance department if your son or daughter needs support this week.
In addition, every SOMSD parent should be reassured that student and staff safety is our highest priority. Security procedures are established for all schools – schools are locked, unauthorized visitors are prohibited, and cameras monitor all who enter our buildings. We coordinate our approach to school safety with the Police Departments of South Orange and Maplewood, regularly practice and review procedures, and revise as necessary. We are confident that we have appropriate safety measures in place to protect our schools.
We value your ongoing support and assistance as we all work together to protect and nurture our precious children.
Brian G. Osborne, Ed.D.
Possible Talking Points:
- You may hear (have heard) people talking about a very sad event that happened at a school in Connecticut.
- School is a very safe place. Sometimes bad things do happen, but this is incredibly rare.
- There are many things in place to keep us safe at school and in our community.
- We are part of a community, and when sad things happen, we can do things together to feel better.
- It is important to talk about our feelings, and if you feel like you need to talk about yours, tell your teacher, principal, guidance counselor, or school social worker.

Post by Eorl @ 12:55pm 08/11/12 | 5 Comments
Dean "Rocket" Hall has taken to his DayZ Standalone blog to once again define just what to expect from the zombie apocalypse title, this time discussing the server architecture that the team will hopefully be using.
The latest blog post explains that the new architecture will allow for a more locked down version compared to their currently open-ended DayZ mod system which has led to rampant cheating and hacking. The new system looks to restrict how much a player can interact with the files, making the "server the umpire" and letting it call the shots on what exactly has happened, similar to the behaviour of an MMO with its server system.
This week saw our lead programmer outline a dramatic plan to change the face of DayZ and how it will hit the world at the end of this year. Simply put, the application will move into a traditional client-server relationship which the server makes most of the decisions. This is the common architecture behind virtually every MMO currently out there, and it will be DayZ's architecture when it releases.The new architecture planned for DayZ Standalone will also benefit greatly on server performance. Anything that isn't required - like zombie AI having flank manoeuvres or being able to reload - is being ripped out and "replacing it with an optimized solution that has players (the survivors) and AI (the zombies)." Such changes will greatly benefit both player and server administrators, whereas currently running a DayZ mod server is quite taxing.
Dean goes on to say that "achieving this will be tough, as we are already crunching very hard. If this heavy optimization is as successful as it would rationally seem to be on paper, then we will be limited on player numbers not by performance, but map design."
DayZ Standalone has not yet been given a release date.

mHealth and Where It's Heading with Alan Portela
Written by: John Lynn
One of my favorite healthcare IT people to interview is Alan Portela, CEO of AirStrip. Having been in the healthcare IT industry and seen it from so many angles, he always has some interesting insight into what's happening in the industry. It's hard to understand the value that having attended HIMSS almost as many years I've been alive (Ok, not quite, but not too far off either) provides.
With this as a preface, I think you'll really enjoy this interview I did with Alan. We talk about how to build a successful mHealth application, the changing EHR market, and the impact of FDA regulation. He provides some really great insights into the market.

Does anyone else have children in a catholic school?
My children attend the catholic school here where I also grew up. It is my faith community and my home, but sometimes I still feel so out of place among all the married couples and two parents families.
Most of the events are couples or two parent family oriented and its hard to show up alone...I know, sadly, that all those couples and marriages are not perfect, but at least they are not sitting at the holiday concert alone again! or worse I am sitting with my parents!
Anybody else feel this way?

Inmates in the Shawnee County Jail could have access to cordless phones.
The County Commissioners heard the proposal Thursday.
Those who proposed the idea emphasized that they aren't cell phones, conversations would still be recorded and inmates would have to check out the phones.
"Inmates who have more contact with family and friends from the outside tend to act and behave better in jail. They tend to get out quicker," said Shawnee County Corrections Director Brian Cole.
The cordless phones would cost more than $10,000. The jail said it would mainly be paid through the inmates' commissary fund.

vacation rental description
Enjoy a beach vacation with local color and panoramic views of sand, sea, and sky! Our oceanfront condo at Pier Point 11 is a stone's throw from the pier and an easy walk from Anastasia State Park, bringing the best Florida scenery right to your doorstep! You'll have ocean views from this ocean front patio, the second-storey balcony, and the master bedroom in our spacious, breezy townhouse-style condo. Located on a grassy lawn right beyond the dunes, Pier Point 11 is as close to the beach as you can be without getting wet! In the morning, stroll out with your first cup of coffee and watch the seabirds wheeling above the shore, the waves sparkling, and the empty sands looking peaceful and pristine. There's no better way to wake up! However, our condo is far from remote. It's part of the Pier Point oceanfront resort, a family friendly complex with a huge oceanview swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and private beach access. At Pier Point 11, you're minutes from the pavilion and from downtown St. Augustine, with fine dining, shopping, and historic sightseeing. So it's the best of both worlds -- the peace and freedom of a quiet beach just outside your door, plus the convenience of a location in the heart of Florida's best vacation land! Your favorite part of Pier Point 11 will probably be the balcony just off the living and dining area. From here you can see a corner of the pier, plenty of beach, and all the sea and sky you could wish for! The salty breeze is refreshing, and if you get up early enough, the sunrise will put on a show right before your eyes. Step inside and you are in our sea-and-sand colored living room, with invitingly plump couches, a padded rocker, and a brand-new huge HDTV with DVD player and VCR. The ceiling fan whirs silently, the cool-toned décor encourages you to relax and take off your shoes, and before you know it, you may be taking a refreshing nap, no matter what the time of day! Ah, the joy of vacation! Just beyond the living room is our dining area, with a big sturdy table that seats 6, flanked by a breakfast bar with seats for 2 more. (Pier Point is a friendly place; the kids are going to bring home new buddies from the pool!) You may find yourself taking most of your meals out to the balcony or patio, so feel free to turn the dining table into your command center and spreading out all the maps and brochures for your sightseeing adventures! The kitchen is convenient to both the dining and living areas, and thanks to the open plan of our condo, you can watch the ocean while fixing everyone a tasty snack! Even if your vacation plans do not involve cooking, you'll find our well-stocked kitchen convenient. Load up the fridge with goodies and enjoy quick treats from the microwave, blender, and coffeemaker . . . with the dishwasher doing all the heavy work, of course! There are dishes and cookware here for making and serving anything you might like, so help yourself! Pier Point 11 has 2 bedrooms with an extra twin in the master bedroom, so it sleeps 5 comfortably. The master suite contains a luxurious queen-sized bed as well as a day bed; turn the day bed with its high back facing outward and you have a toddler bed with a built-in safety rail! There is also a TV in the master suite, and the en suite bathroom contains both a tub and shower option. Leave the blinds open one night and wake to the sight of the sun rising over the ocean! The 2nd bedroom contains a queen bed and a full bathroom next door. There is a half-bath on the living room level to ensure that there is no waiting in line during the morning rush at Pier Point 11! All of the linens and towels you need are provided here, as well as a washer and dryer to keep everything clean and fresh. Pack light and come as you are; we've got you covered at Pier Point 11! Reserve your vacation here soon, and we predict you'll make it an annual event!

Unearth the true story of green-thumbed pioneer and activist Kate Sessions, who helped San Diego grow from a dry desert town into a lush, leafy city known for its gorgeous parks and gardens.
Katherine Olivia Sessions never thought she'd live in a place without trees. After all, Kate grew up among the towering pines and redwoods of Northern California. But after becoming the first woman to graduate from the University of California with a degree in science, she took a job as a teacher far south in the dry desert town of San Diego. Where there were almost no trees.
Kate decided that San Diego needed trees more than anything else. So this trailblazing young woman singlehandedly started a massive movement that transformed the town into the green, garden-filled oasis it is today. Now, more than 100 years after Kate first arrived in San Diego, her gorgeous gardens and parks can be found all over the city.
Part fascinating biography, part inspirational story, this moving picture book about following your dreams, using your talents, and staying strong in the face of adversity is sure to resonate with readers young and old.
A little-known, can-do woman shines in this handsome picture book from Hopkins and McElmurry. Hopkins ably brings a woman's passion—and some science—to a story that's accessible for young children. And, oh the pictures! Both old-timey and lush, they evoke Kate's vision perfectly, and individually labeled illustrations of trees add to the educational value. A lovely tribute to the pioneering (and environmentalist) spirit, topped off by an author's note.
— Booklist (starred review)
McElmurry's artwork undergirds Hopkins's writing with stylized beauty and a sense of joy. This is a wonderful tribute to a true champion of nature.
— School Library Journal (starred review)
Even children who find the details of Sessions' life difficult to absorb are likely to be enchanted by the book's appearance. McElmurry's paintings combine stylized design elements with naturalistic details. Porcelain-doll-like girls and boys, in frilly white dresses and short trousers respectively, have character and attitude. In one illustration, McElmurry shows rows of students (the rows stacked liked layer cakes) at their desks, each one with an identical plant specimen. But the children are doing things individually: whispering to neighbors, daydreaming, raising a hand, and in one case, napping. Likewise, the plants and trees are detailed and distinct but also simplified enough that their basic structures can be easily understood.

›› Key facts and what happens now
VATICAN CITY (AP) - Pope Benedict XVI announced Monday he would resign Feb. 28 because he is simply too old to carry on. Here is the text of his announcement, delivered to cardinals gathered for a ceremony to name three new saints.
"Dear Brothers,
I have convoked you to this Consistory, not only for the three canonizations, but also to communicate to you a decision of great importance for the life of the Church. After having repeatedly examined my conscience before God, I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine ministry. I am well aware that this ministry, due to its essential spiritual nature, must be carried out not only with words and deeds, but no less with prayer and suffering. However, in today's world, subject to so many rapid changes and shaken by questions of deep relevance for the life of faith, in order to govern the bark of Saint Peter and proclaim the Gospel, both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months, has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me. For this reason, and well aware of the seriousness of this act, with full freedom I declare that I renounce the ministry of Bishop of Rome, Successor of Saint Peter, entrusted to me by the Cardinals on 19 April 2005, in such a way, that as from 28 February 2013, at 20:00 hours, the See of Rome, the See of Saint Peter, will be vacant and a Conclave to elect the new Supreme Pontiff will have to be convoked by those whose competence it is.
Dear Brothers, I thank you most sincerely for all the love and work with which you have supported me in my ministry and I ask pardon for all my defects. And now, let us entrust the Holy Church to the care of Our Supreme Pastor, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and implore his holy Mother Mary, so that she may assist the Cardinal Fathers with her maternal solicitude, in electing a new Supreme Pontiff. With regard to myself, I wish to also devotedly serve the Holy Church of God in the future through a life dedicated to prayer."

What did you think of this review?
Use Trust Points to see how much you can rely on this review.
If Brian De Palma directed Mission to Marsfor 10-year-olds who've never seen a science fiction film, he can be credited for crafting a marginally successful adventure. Isolated moments in this film serve the highest purpose of its genre, inspiring a sense of wonder and awe in the context of a fascinating future (specifically, the year 2020). But because most of us have seen a lot of science fiction films, it's impossible to ignore this one's derivative plot, cardboard characters, and drearily dumb dialogue. Despite an awesome and painstakingly authentic display of cool technology and dazzling special effects,Mission to Marsis light years away from2001: A Space Odysseyon the scale of human intelligence.
After dispensing with a few space-jockey clichés, the movie focuses on a Mars-bound rescue mission commanded by Jim McConnell (Gary Sinise), whose team (Tim Robbins, Connie Nielsen, Jerry O'Connell) has been sent to retrieve the sole survivor (Don Cheadle) of a tragic Mars landing. During the sequence en route to Mars, De Palma's in his element with two suspenseful scenes (including a dramatic--albeit somewhat silly--space walk) that are technically impressive. But when this Mission gets to Mars, the movie grows increasingly unconvincing, finally arriving at an alien encounter that more closely resembles an astronomical CGI video game. But this is a $75 million Hollywood movie, and no amount of technical wizardry can lift the burden ...

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.

Albany Police say a man was injured overnight during a drive-by shooting.
Relatives of a murdered Tift County man are speaking out, Wednesday night, after one arrest in the case, but the investigation is far from over.
The woman who is charged was actually wounded in the same shooting that killed 21-year-old Christopher Sears, Friday.
She's charged with murder because investigators say she was involved in a crime with Sears that led to his death.
It's a confusing case.
Those family members are saying they don't understand or have any idea of why Sears was shot and killed but the arrest that came down does bring some form of closure.
19-year-old Jordan McCalister is in the Tift County Jail charged with felony murder in the death of Christopher Sears. The two were shot in his Ford pickup truck on Short Street Friday afternoon.
Sears died at the scene.
We caught up with family members of Sears this evening who are still in disbelief that their loved one is no longer with them.
"I really don't see a reason why they killed him like that. It was messed up the way they killed him. I think it could have gone another way," said Sears' cousin Stanchez Wright.
Wright told us the 21-year-old was an easy going guy who didn't have problems with anyone.
"He was a cool person. He was easy to get along with. He really didn't bother too many people. You had to get on his bad side or really, really make him mad for him to get mad you," said Wright.
Tift County officials are now alleging Sears and McCallister were plotting to commit some type of crime before the shooting took place. They won't go into details or say who else they think was involved in the shooting.
Wright says his cousin had no previous run in with the law.
He told us he doesn't know McCalister, but he isn't surprised by the charges against her.
"Nowadays anybody is capable of doing anything these days. You can't put anything past anyone anymore," said Wright.
Now this family is forced to move on with only the memory of their loved one.
About an hour and a half before the murder, there was another shooting nearby. Today, investigators charged 29-year-old LaCharles Miller with aggravated assault in that case which may be related to the murder.
No one was hurt in that shooting, but several cars and businesses were hit by bullets.
Sheriff Gene Scarbrough says he expects to make more arrests in the murder.
Jordan McCalister remains in the Tift County Jail without bond, Wednesday.

Phoenix police want to catch three men who robbed a 78-year-old man inside his business.
John Gregory owns Gregory Lawn Mower in the 2900 block of West McDowell Road.

The perfect attire for the first of May.
Infinite x's and o's
A sad truth, but one I have come to terms with. Ladies: if you got em, flaunt em. If you don't [[like me]] , fake em.
The underwire bikini top is great support if you are busty and great 'encouragement' if you are, well… let's say, less than a handful. Bosoms up ladies.
Infinite x's and o's,
What to wear, what to wear tomorrow? The question usually running through my head as I lay in bed at night. Sometimes, a girl just needs a little dash of inspiration to help rediscover the great pieces in her closet. Pleats make me as giddy as ever. Almost as giddy as this weather in Minnesota. I mean, I was excited for spring and I was counting down the days till I could sport my cute capris…..butttttt, what the spring? When did you come pretty lady?
Seriously, it's 7:30 and still faintly light outside. The high today was 67. I swear I wasn't expecting spring so soon. The arrival of this season hit me harder than a jacked up Brad Pitt in Fight Club. And you wanna know what? I liked it.
Infinite x's and o's
The chambray shirt: probably the greatest invention ever ever EVER. Wear it with colored pants, flirty skirts, under a blouse, over a tanktop, tucked in, unbuttoned, out to lunch, at work…yep, pretty much the most versatile wardrobe piece of all time.
GUESS WHAT. March has arrived. Do you know what this means???? Spring is HERREEEEE. I see you budding little baby flowers, I see you.
Okay so maybe that fresh foot of snow covering my lawn suggests otherwise, but I am a firm believer that THIS will be the year when Minnesota actually out-Springs the other 49 states. Yep, we're doing it.
{J. Crew, $128}
{Chooka Posh Dot Rain Boots, $69.99}
{Mango, $56}
It is Spring. Don't fight it my dears:)
Infinite x's and o's
{BANK Fashion, $71}

{Forever 21, $5.80}
{Forever 21, $24.80}
{Dorothy Perkins, $21}
{Monsoon, $40}
Sooooooo, I pretty much want to paint the world with flirty floral patterns. Pants, sunglasses, bikinis, toothbrushes, your dog. Everything. That okay with you? Good.
Infinite x's and o's,
Ladies and gents, single or not, there is no reason to be sulky on Valentine's Day. Don't be 'that girl' who's got bitterness written all over her face. Best friends, family, YOURSELF…there are so many people to love, so show it…yes, I mean literally!

Infinite x's and o's,
college girl needs a fracket. What's that, you say? A fuzzy racket???? Don't worry, I thought the same thing.
Yet again, the ladies over at Refinery 29 have clued me in on something that every girl cannot live without. This time I'm not exaggerating. I promise.
Low and behold, the fracket – a cute jacket that can be worn out on the town and can also be lost, drenched in beer, or drooled on (I know what jungle juice can do to us ladies) without total devastation and loss of sleep wondering how we are going to explain to mom and dad that we need a new North Face for the third time this year.
Miss Selfridge, $23
ModCloth, $49.99
Dorothy Perkins, $44
Oasis, $50

All for $50 or less. I know, I know, frackets are literally the best thing that ever happened to our "oh my god, I said/did/slept with what?!" kind of nights.

Then why is he schilling for Al Gore?!?
As everyone by now surely knows, this November's elections will be the most important in recent memory and will very likely see a Republican wave, similar to or possibly in excess of that which brought Gingrich to the Speakership back in 1994.
That election came to be called a Revolution, although the long-term effects were mixed, to say the least. To many, the election of '94 was an opportunity to roll back the tide of big government that was eventually squandered.
This year, we hope to take advantage of another opportunity to stem the tide of runaway government control of our lives. We hope to recover our lost liberties and repair our broken economy by rejecting the collectivist call to central planning and returning to the traditional American system of unleashing human ingenuity through freedom, competition, and unfettered innovation.
In order to do that, though, I believe we must keep firmly in mind the principles that guide us to the polls.
For far too long, candidates have gotten into office on big talk, with little delivery. Democrats fight to expand government everywhere and always, and far too many Republicans end up embracing socialism light in the name of "bipartisanship."
Many see this last failing as the reason the Revolution of '94 ultimately failed. In many ways, the surging Tea Party movement is a rejection of this kind of compromise on principle.
So if you are approached by Newt claiming he's helping Republicans, you might want to remember that Newt also wants us to help Nancy Pelosi fight global warming.
Or Climate Change.
Or whatever it's called this week.
Two years ago, Mr. Gingrich got comfy with Nancy on a couch in front of the Capitol Building to do a commercial for We Can Solve It, a video project for celebrities and politicians, who recorded messages about the urgency of stopping global warming.
Their website is http://www.wecansolveit.org/ . While that's disturbing enough, a little digging reveals We Can Solve It is actually a project of The Alliance for Climate Protection. You can confirm the link between the two here. The We Can Solve It campaign is the third project on the list of the Alliance's "Our Work" page.
The Alliance for Climate Protection was founded in 2006 with the mission to "close the gap between the 77% of people who believe that there is solid evidence that the Earth is warming and the 47% who believe that warming is linked to human activity."
The founder and chairman of the Alliance for Climate Protection is Al Gore.
Now, I'm sure that Mr. Gingrich will not be discussing any of this at the NCGOP's fundraiser on the 27th. I'm sure he'll be rallying the conservative faithful to get out there, work a polling location, walk their precincts, make phone calls, and do all the other necessary work to win on November 2nd. That is all well and good, and I'm all for that.
Nevertheless, I have to take with a grain of salt the words of anyone who thinks it's important to help Nancy Pelosi and Al Gore save the planet from… well, us. Newt, you got caught! Let the political backpeddling begin!
GET RID OF THE RINOS FOLKS. Given the above, that means Newt's gotta go too.
To all the congressional newbies (Quayle, Schweikert, etc) stay away from the globallists and RINOs. If you succumb, eventually we're gonna catch ya. And by then, McCain wont be around to protect you like he did Jon (2005 Cornryn/Kyl) "Amnesty" Kyl and John "TARP Bailout" Shadegg.

Nonfiction Workshops
These are studio-like courses, devoted to the production of student work. Taught by the core faculty in nonfiction, these repeatable workshops may have different foci, depending upon the instructors. Students will be expected to complement the writing and critiquing of their work with readings from classic and contemporary examples of the form.
4 courses, 12 credits
Thesis Development Workshop
This course will serve to encourage students to develop, focus and move on to completing work on their theses, depending upon what stage of their work they are in at the time they take the class.
1 course, 3 credits
Form and Theory of Nonfiction
Examples: Short Forms: The Short Essay and The Prose Poem; Writing Hybrid Nonfiction; The Poetic Memoir; Aphorism and The Declarative Impulse in Nonfiction Writing; Forms of the Essay. This class is to a large extent a craft class in which students focus more intensely on specific issues and practices of their genre; but it also has the difference of incorporating a theoretical component as well, asking students to not only engage and think about craft and form, but to read and theorize it.
2 courses/6 credits
History of the Essay
Seneca to Montaigne to Alice Meynell to Simone Weil etc . . . a linear, disjunctive, or creative tour into the heart of the essay. The essay is, in many ways, the genre central to the study of literary nonfiction in the United States today. It is the form most taught in nonfiction workshops. This class will introduce students to some of the crucial voices in the history of the form.
1 course, 3 credits
Topics in Nonfiction
In these classes, Nonfiction faculty will have the opportunity to expose students to a broad array of canonical and contemporary writers in a variety of nonfiction genres. This may be single, paired, or movement author classes (OULIPO's work, or The Surrealist Essay), or classes that focus on a specific theme in nonfiction studies, or are devoted exclusively to exploring the critical necessity of aspects of nonfiction such as The Devotional Memoir (Julian of Norwich and Margery Kempe, etc) or The Journal and Letter as Cognate Forms of the Essay, as well as Autobiography and Memoir, Travel Literature, Traditional Biography and the "New" Biography, etc.
2 courses, 6 credits
