GSA Discretionary Fund Post Award Guidelines
Congratulations!!! Your event has been funded by the GSA Discretionary Fund. There are 3 methods to disburse your funds. Please read the following very carefully,
and pick the method that suits your project best.
1. Individual Reimbursement
Individuals may pay for certain event expenses out of pocket and get reimbursed later.
All reimbursements require original receipts. Photocopies are not acceptable.
2. Purchase Order/Invoice
To make an Internal (ASUCLA Computer Store ONLY) or External (Regents UC and all
other Outside Vendors) purchase that will be billed at a later date, an ASUCLA
Purchase Order must be issued to the vendor PRIOR to the EVENT.
How a Purchase Order is issued
Upon the receipt of your completed requisition (with explicit instructions), Student
Government Accounting will issue the Purchase Order to the vendor or we can hold the
Purchase Order for pick-up (please indicate in Section 8 of the requisition). The
issuance of the ASUCLA Purchase Order to the vendor confirms that all items and
details listed will be supplied and, in turn, be paid for by ASUCLA.
In most cases, once the vendor has received our Purchase Order by mail, he will mail the merchandise to the address listed on the Purchase Order or to your department,depending on any arrangements made by you (the student group contact person) with the vendor. If merchandise is shipped directly to your department, please make sure to bring the packing slip and/or invoice directly to Student Government
Accounting, this will ensure prompt payment to the vendor.
On the other hand, you may pick up the completed Purchase Order from Student
Government Accounting and take it to the vendor in person. Depending on your
arrangements with that vendor, you may pick up the goods/services at that time. If the
vendor gives you the original invoice please be sure to submit it to Student Government
Accounting for payment.
As you will see in the sample of a Purchase Order on the next page, we state, "To
avoid delayed payment, original invoice must reference the purchase order number above and be mailed to the following address:

Big 12's born again -- and feeling its oats sitting at 10, 12 or 14 - NCAA Football - CBSSports.com
Good article from Dodd. I only question the validity of the statement: " Within that deal is a clause that will give any new expansion candidates the same money as the current members (estimated to be at least $20 million per year). One industry source said that number applies whether the Big 12 invites, "Appalachian State or Florida State."' Adding FSU wouldn't warrant an increase??

Shock exit for Wawrinka (From Andover Advertiser)

Shock exit for Wawrinka
10:23pm Monday 26th May 2014 in National Sport News © Press Association 2014
Stanislas Wawrinka admitted he is struggling to piece together the puzzle of life as a grand slam champion after crashing out of the French Open in the first round.
The Australian Open winner and third seed never looked comfortable in heavy conditions after a wet day in Paris and fell 6-4 5-7 6-2 6-0 to Spain's Guillermo Garcia-Lopez.
When Wawrinka lifted his first Masters trophy in Monte Carlo last month it looked like he could potentially add the French Open crown to the one he so stunningly won in Melbourne in January.
But he was in trouble virtually from the start on Court Philippe Chatrier and became the first Australian Open champion to lose in the opening round in Paris since Petr Korda in 1998.
Wawrinka said: "I was completely flat. I was not really relaxed with my game. I wasn't aggressive. I was playing some bad rallies. Everything was terrible.
"I always put a lot of pressure on myself. But before the match and during the match it was not really about only the pressure.
"I think it's just a different story. Now it's a different picture for my career. I need to put the puzzle back together, but differently than in the past.
"Because now it's after winning grand slam, Masters 1000, being number three in the world. Everything is different, and I still didn't find all the pieces."

The New England Patriots and Houston Texans will both be looking for their seventh straight win when they meet at Gillette Stadium this Monday night.
New England was a 3.5-point home favorite, meaning Houston will be looking for a seventh straight ATS win as an underdog as well here.
New England won its sixth straight game and clinched the AFC East with its 23-16 win over the Miami Dolphins last Sunday. 23 points was a surprisingly low total for the Patriots, who had averaged 47.5 points per game over its previous four games, but it was enough to get the job done against the Dolphins.
Sunday's game marked the first time the total had gone UNDER in a Patriots game in 10 games. This week's game gives the Pats a chance to extend their awesome 19-1 SU mark at home in the month of December over the years.
Houston's incredible season kept chugging along last Sunday with a 24-10 win and cover over the Tennessee Titans. With the win, the Texans clinched a playoff spot and moved to 11-1 SU and 8-4 ATS on the year. They have won 10 of their past 12 road games SU, according to the Week 14 NFL trends report.
With a two-game lead over Denver, New England and Baltimore (all 9-3 SU), Houston is well on its way to clinching the AFC's top seed and home field throughout the playoffs with a strong finish to the regular season. The Texans are 4-2 ATS over their current six-game winning streak.
The OVER is 6-3-1 in Houston's last 10 games and 9-1 in New England's last 10. The total has gone OVER in all three lifetime meetings between these two teams. New England leads the all-time series 2-1 SU and ATS, though Houston won in their last meeting in 2010.
It is hard to go wrong when picking an elite team on a six-game winning streak, and you have that option twice in this game. We lean towards taking the points on Houston. New England is just 2-5 ATS in its last seven home games while Houston is 10-2 SU and 9-3 ATS in its last 12 games on the road.
The Texans also have the better defense and are getting the points, making them the choice in what should be an excellent game and a potential playoff preview. The picks computer at OddsShark.com predicts a 40-37 win for New England.

An Army at Dawn: The War in North Africa, 1942–1943, by Rick Atkinson ( Henry Holt, 2002; Owl Books paperback, 2003)
Lately, when I ponder military history, I keep returning to Rick Atkinson's masterful account of the U.S. and British campaign against German forces in North Africa. The work is a conventional war story in many ways: it chronicles the movements of men and materiel over oceans and across the land; it details battles from squad through corps level; and it supplies us with good maps featuring military symbols moving through the terrain. Atkinson's thorough research and excellent writing enliven the narrative with a wealth of anecdotes from privates and generals alike.
So, it is no overstatement to call An Army at Dawn a superb war book (it did win the Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction in 2003, after all). But I can't stop thinking about this volume because it fundamentally reoriented my thinking about World War II. Atkinson so skillfully argues that this campaign was a "pivot point in American history, the place where the United States began to act like a great power—militarily, diplomatically, strategically, tactically. Along with Stalingrad and Midway, North Africa is where the Axis enemy forever lost the initiative of World War II." The invasion of Normandy, as enormous as it remains both in actual importance and the world's imagination, owed its success to lessons the Anglo-American alliance learned eighteen months earlier.
One indicator of a book's success is the intensity of anticipation for the publication of the author's next one. This strength of feeling is heightened when the author has promised a series of books (remember Harry Potter fans' near-panic anticipation of the publication of J.K. Rowling's fifth installment?). Since An Army at Dawn is the first book in what Atkinson terms "The Liberation Trilogy," wherein subsequent books will chronicle the war in Italy and finally in the rest of Western Europe, my anticipation for the next two volumes leaves me rather glum that I have to wait to read them.

The Great Influenza, by John Barry (Viking, 2004)
This is the story, eloquently and lucidly told, of "the greatest plague in history"-- the influenza pandemic of 1918, which began in Kansas and ultimately killed 675,000 Americans and 50-100 million people worldwide. 0ur reviewer, E. James Lieberman, M.D., praised it for showing "how exceptional science, humanitarian impulses, honest reporting, and courageous leadership" had to contend with a media and political leaders who sought to maintain public calm by keeping from the public the knowledge that the epidemic could kill huge numbers of people. John Barry concludes by warning that the development and use of "a weaponized virus could be the equivalent of a worldwide nuclear holocaust."
Luther Spoehr
Truth to tell, the three most engaging, best-written books I've read this year were David Hackett Fischer's Washington's Crossing, Gordon Wood's Americanization of Benjamin Franklin, and Joseph Ellis's His Excellency George Washington. But none of them is in any danger of being overlooked. And I should probably stick to my area, which is twentieth century America.
It would be a shame to overlook Robert P. Newman's Enola Gay and the Court of History (201 pages, Peter Lang, $24.95 paperback, $69.95 hardcover). in a brief, briskly written analysis, Newman, emeritus professor of history at the University of Pittsburgh, shows how Paul Nitze's willful misreading of the post-World War II Strategic Bombing Survey was subsequently used to buttress the"revisionist" interpretation of the decision to drop the bomb and even contributed to the debacle that was the Smithsonian's 1995 Enola Gay exhibit. Nitze was a true Cold Warrior--a"quintessential hawk [who] until the 1990s never met a weapon system he did not like"--and had his own reasons for denying the efficacy of strategic bombing. Then Gar Alperovitz and other hard-line revisionists on the left bought into Nitze's arguments for their own purposes. Between them, right and left mangled historical precision, accuracy, and balance. To his great credit (and despite sloppy copy-editing), Newman helps to restore that balance. His book is a triumph of evidence over ideologies.

Adams Vs. Jefferson: The Tumultuous Election of 1800, by John Ferling (Oxford University Press, 2004).
Do competing ideologies, intense political debate, and vicious name-calling sound familiar? No, it wasn't the election of 2004, but rather the presidential election of 1800.
This book addresses the election of 1800, a boisterous campaign that ultimately ended in a deadlock in the Electoral College and resulted in a crisis in which the young nation teetered on the brink of collapse.
In the early nineteenth century, as America was struggling to organize itself into a new nation, it faced threats from foreign governments as well as a series of constitutional battles. With this as the background, there was a dramatic struggle underway between two political parties with significantly different views of how the nation should be governed. John Adams led the Federalists, conservatives who believed in strong central government. Thomas Jefferson led the Republicans, egalitarians who firmly believed that the Federalists had betrayed the Revolution of 1776 and were advancing down the slippery slope toward monarchy.
The presidential campaign itself was a brawl just as ruthless as the 2004 election, with intense mud-slinging. The Federalists called Jefferson a "howling atheist," while the Republicans accused the Federalists of resorting to scare-mongering. In fact, scare tactics and backstabbing were common during the election of 1800. The low point came when Alexander Hamilton wrote a vigorous attack on Adams, the leader of his own party, in what was characterized as "fifty-four pages of unremitting vilification."
The election culminated in a stalemate in the Electoral College that dragged on for days, through dozens of votes. Tensions were so volatile that the Republicans threatened civil war if the Federalists did not give Jefferson the presidency. Ferling maintains that the deadlocked election was finally resolved in the House of Representatives, after 36 votes, in a secret agreement between Jefferson and his rivals, the Federalists, which gave Jefferson the presidency by only a single vote. John Adams left Washington in the early morning hours on Inauguration Day, too angry to even shake hands with his opponent.
Ferling argues that Jefferson's election consummated the American Revolution, guaranteeing the democratization of America and its separation from Great Britain.
This book shows how the political parties manipulated the media, rallied people to the polls, and exploited the law to enhance Electoral College votes. The election of 1800 raised the question of whether the American government could be transferred peacefully from one party to another – a scenario that had never occurred before in the United States and was still unusual in the Western world.
Given that the news for much of 2004 has been dominated by reports of political partisanship, cheap shots, and electoral deviousness, Ferling's book demonstrates that the political process has actually changed little in the last 200 years. Rather than viewing the rhetoric of this year's election as anything new, this book suggests that it was merely a recurrence of previous political squabbles.

Guy Storms - 1/2/2005
A simple observation on Gene Gerard's review of "Adams vs. Jefferson": Gerard has stated that Ferling's book "demonstrates that the political process has actually changed little in the last 200 years", and that we should view the rhetoric, media manipulation and political maneuvering as "merely a recurrence of previous political squabbles."
Rather than this fact being a source of reasurrance to the reader that the American political tradition is alive and well, functioning as it should, we all should be very afraid, knowing that America is still functioning as an eighteenth century fledgling nation state as we move deeper into the twenty-first century. Most significantly, we all should be reminded that America potentially holds the fate of world civilization's furture development in its grasp, while internal rivalries dominate its politics.

With the NBA Draft less than a week away, I decided it was time for me to throw my two cents in on what I think the Nets should do with their two picks. Here's my thoughts:
In my opinion, the best site for the draft is nbadraft.net, so I'm going to use them to help me make my picks. Right now, they have us drafting Davis Bertans, a SF from Latvia, with our 27th pick, and Nolan Smith, the well-known PG/SG from Duke, with the 36th pick. No offense to those guys, but umm, eww. I think we could do a lot better.
The two guys I think we should pick are Jeremy Tyler and Josh Selby.
Nbadraft.net currently has Tyler falling to the second pick of the second round, so he should be available for us at 27. He's NBA-ready as far as size, athleticism, and rebounding goes (possesses a 7'5" wingspan), but just needs to work on maturity, decisiveness, and he settles for the jumper too often (Johnson was able to help Humphries overcome this, so I'm confident he can do the same with Tyler). His NBA comparison is Nazr Muhammad, and his potential is through the roof (they gave him a 9 out of 10 for potential). He may be a bit of a project this year, but down the road, he could turn into a solid NBA PF.
Next up is Selby, who like Tyler, has all the potential in the world. He will be a long-term project, but his quickness, athleticism, and ball handling makes him look like John Wall at times. While Smith is probably a tad more NBA-ready, Selby has waaay more potential. His jump shot is decent but needs to get a little more consistent. NBAdraft.net has him falling to the Lakers at 41, so he will hopefully still be there at 36. \
Both Tyler and Selby were absolute studs coming out of High School, but just haven't been able to put it all together since then. Hopefully they will put together in the NBA for the New Jersey Nets.
Please leave comments or other suggestions as I really want to know what other Nets fans feel would be the best outcome of the draft for us. Thanks for reading.

|Bring holiday cheer to the elderly
The holidays are supposed to be a time of joy, but for some older adults, especially those living alone or in long-term care, holidays can be met with stress, confusion and feelings of sadness and loneliness, often intensified because holidays can be further reminders of the loss of loved ones, health and even independence. During this time of year, older adults can become isolated from their friends, family and community, leading to an increased risk of depression. There are several ways to make the holidays brighter and more tolerable, however.

text: On the jaguars.com homepage there is a poll who was the most outstanding rookie, and Kawaun Jakes is the leader with 55% of the votes. I'll admit i only watched when he played MTSU as i was going to MTSU. But he didn't seem overly exceptional to me. Although I do like that he is a Lifelong Jags fan, but that is not enough to make it in the NFL. I just thought this was interesting (I voted for Cyprien, because he seemed to me to our biggest add, although Joeckel also seemed to destroy)

|New public service announcement warns parents about the signs of heroin abuse
Prescription pill misuse often leads to abuse of heroin, other illicit drugs
Pendleton County has its share of losing many young people to Heroin overdose. A drug problem that has exploded out of control.
Attorney General Jack Conway and the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy have jointly released a public service announcement (PSA) to increase awareness of heroin abuse among young people and to warn their parents of the signs.
The 30-second PSA http://youtu.be/leznM7P2O0g depicts a young woman in a morgue who describes how easy it has been to hide her heroin habit from her parents - that is until she becomes an overdose victim.
"This short PSA sends an important message to parents and teens across Kentucky," General Conway said. "Don't overlook the signs of heroin use. Missing prescription pills, valuables and lost appetite are all signs that your child may be abusing heroin, prescription pills or other illicit drugs. Ignoring the signs could mean a lifetime of heartache."
The PSA, produced by the Nassau County, NY District Attorney's Office, being distributed to television stations across Kentucky along with other drug abuse prevention videos, including the winning Keep Kentucky Kids Safe prescription drug abuse prevention PSA produced by members of the Clark Coun
"The misuse of prescription medications is often a stepping stone to the abuse of illicit drugs like heroin," said Van Ingram, Executive Director of the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy. "Tamper-proof formulations of popular opioids have also contributed to a resurgence of heroin abuse and it's cheaper and more readily available."
Kentucky is the fourth most medicated state in the country, and it has the sixth highest rate of overdose deaths. More than 1,000 Kentuckians die each year from prescription drug overdoses.
Warning Signs of Drug Abuse
• Unexplained weight loss or gain
• Inability to sleep, fatigue
• Slowed or staggering walk
• Extreme hyperactivity
• Tremors
• Irregular heartbeat
• Needle marks of lower arm, leg or bottom of feet
• Change in overall attitude/personality
• Declining academic performance
• Sudden over sensitivity, moodiness
• Unexplained need for money
If your child is abusing heroin, prescription drugs or another illicit substance, visit http://ag.ky.gov/rxabuse or odcp.ky.gov to find important information and resources. Parents can also call a toll-free Help line at 1-855-DRUGFREE (1-855-378-4373).
Combating Prescription Drug Abuse
In 2009, General Conway launched Kentucky's first and only statewide Prescription Drug Diversion Task Force to increase investigations into pill mills, overprescribing physicians, prescription drug trafficking and doctor shopping. To date, General Conway's Drug Investigations Branch and Task Force have opened more than 430 cases. The Task Force also participated in Operation Flamingo Road, the state's largest prescription drug bust that resulted in the arrests of more than 500 people.
General Conway's Office joined forces with the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy, concerned parents and other state and law enforcement partners in 2010 to launch the Keep Kentucky Kids Safe prescription drug abuse awareness initiative. To date, the partners have alerted more than 15,000 middle and high school students to the dangers of misusing prescription drugs.
Attorney General Conway also worked closely with Governor Beshear, House Speaker Stumbo and other lawmakers to win passage of landmark legislation in 2012 to prevent the abuse and diversion of prescription pills in the Commonwealth.
Since its implementation, 20 of the state's 43 known pain management clinics have shut down because they can't comply with the registration requirements of House Bill 1. The number of medical providers registered to use the state's prescription drug monitoring program (KASPER) has tripled, while KASPER reports have jumped from 3,000 to nearly 20,000 per day.
Additionally, prescriptions for some of the most abused or diverted drugs dropped from November 2011 to November 2012. Prescriptions for Hydrocodone and Oxycodone are down 16 percent and Opana prescriptions, linked to a growing number of overdose deaths, have dropped 48 percent.

In case our last blog post hasn't got every jeweller/hat maker on here frantically papering polystyrene heads, we though we'd share a bit of news :)We recently found a bit of time to promote our UK website and wanted to get the maximum exposure for the minimum time so we can spend as much time as possible beading things.
We did another search for alternative fashion magazines and sent a couple of e-mails off with our new product shots attached, offering our little black number shown above as a competition prize.
Much to our astonishment and great delight, the lovely Leona at Alt Fashion magazine jumped at it and we've just posted the mask today. In addition to the giveaway, she is writing a review which we'll share as soon as we can.
We'd had some success before with this sort of thing but never to such a great response, our shop views are also up across the board and still growing.We've also just found ourselves some fantastic new packaging from MidPac - black, satiny boxes with a magnetic closure just in time for our grand showing :) We'd tried out various alternatives but nothing seemed quite right, or if it was we couldn't find the size we needed.
Naturally, we are more excited about the boxes that what goes in them - what is it with creative types and stationary? Anyway, it has once again shown us that it's always worth putting in the extra time to get everything just right. When you've got that sorted, the rest just kind of comes together ;)More soon,Karen and Rich

For a while now we've know we needed to get more modelled shots of our products but what with one thing and another, doing a live shoot has been put off. We decided to find an alternative that didn't mean doing hair and makeup every time we created something new, would look good and enable us to list straight away.The solution came via a friend on Etsy who showed us their mannequin head which they had bought cheaply and decorated. A bit of research turned up a selection for about five pounds apiece, male and female, so we ordered one of each.As you can see, it was obviously polystyrene, had seams showing and generally not very glam. So, we used a homemade paste of flour, water and sugar to glue strips of white tissue, gradually building up the layers until we had a light texture we liked and had covered any unsightly bits. To protect it further we then painted it with acrylic in a creamy colour which toughened it further and made it wipe clean (essential when taking photos in the kitchen!)Our original product shots looked like this- very nice and everything but a bit hard to tell how it would look on.Now, they look like this- not only do they now show how the mask fits but by happy accident, the creamy colour of the heads has solved the white balance issues we were having, where the background sheet, which is white, would come up yellow or blue depending on the light source.
So, for all those jewellers/hat knitters out there who don't have anyone they can bribe to model for them, happy pasting and painting :)

Last year went something like this....1) Open Etsy shop.
2) Figure out what to do with Etsy shop.
3) Be impressed with self.4) Open and then close various other stores after realising they are all, basically, Etsy.5) Do exclusive range for very nice business person to go on sale soon6) Sign contract for artwork to go on sale soon7) Whilst waiting for the people in 6 & 7 to get organised, decide to open own websiteSo far, so good...one by one we were ticking off the things on our business plan, achieving our goals and making sure we only took on one new thing at a time.
It's now only late Feb and so far, this year has gone something like this....1) Design and build new website in a week. Be unbearably smug.2) Decide shopping cart wasn't good enough, sign up to new one (more on that in next post) and rebuild the whole thing again. Be more smug and start ad campaign.3) Still waiting for people from last year, so contact local gallery. Gallery says yes they'd like some stuff for spring. Plan new work. Grin lots.4) Offer to do basic website and product photos for artwork people from last year because they are too busy. They say yes - money comes in, paying for frames for gallery work, all good. Should be up and running by March.5) Get message from exclusive range lady to say that's going live in March too, as it happens, with its own ad campaign. Look a bit anxious.6) Get message from gallery to say they want to meet up and pick some work in a week or so.... that'd be March, then.
So far, today has gone something like this....1) Drink too much coffee2) Wonder where to start3) Hide behind sofa :)

In using prototyping as an analysis tool, emphasis should be placed on analysis. That is, the process of prototyping is used as a discovery tool that is used to identify business needs. Sauter (2008) identifies four prototyping steps in analysis: functional selection, construction, evaluation, and further use.
First, the functions are determined based upon business need and are designed to be put into the prototype. Second, construction of the prototype begins. Third, the prototype is evaluated. The focus of the evaluation is upon the design and functional ability of the prototype. Finally, the prototype is either undergoes continued development, through incremental change in deployment to production, or is discarded.
The prototyping process is used to identify important functional elements. The prototype may reveal functional gaps in the developer's understanding versus what a customer may want or need. Therefore, this prototyping process is vital in shaping the final product to be used by the customer.
McConnell (1998) raises an important issue in the creation of the prototype and client's expectation. More specifically, the client must understand, even during the analysis phases that the prototype is not the final system.

This is going to be very brief, because quite frankly, I am in no mood to say much.
Congratulations to Florida. For the 24th straight time, they proved that they are a much better football program. Urban Meyer seems to have a mole inside Kentucky, because he always seems to know exactly what to do to make the Wildcats look like a high school team. Joker Phillips, Rich Brooks, it doesn't matter. Meyer owns Kentucky. We have never been competitive against the Gators with him at the helm, and tonight was just one more in a growing line of embarrassments at the hands of Meyer and the Gators.
I know that analysis stinks, but folks, it is real. Let's just suck it up and move on.
Florida utterly dominated us on offense and defense. That's all the analysis needed there. The Wildcats came into this game with a deer-in-the-headlights look, and left with knots all over their head. A true freshman named Burton scored six touchdowns on UK. This is a kid who is just out of high school, and he treated our defense like it was what he was used to facing six or eight months ago. Again, not a pleasant bit of analysis, but it is real.
I don't want to talk about Chris Matthews big night, or the weird officiating (which was utterly irrelevant to the outcome), or the fact that Kentucky's defense tried but failed to keep the game competitive. The reality is, this is a team game, and if the offense can't stay on the field for more than three plays, or keeps turning the ball over, the defense will get tired and the game will get out of hand.
Right now, I want to lick my wounds. They hurt. I'm tired of losing to Florida, but the Wildcats were never in this football game after halftime. I hate that, but it is real.
And that is all. More tomorrow after I've had time to recover from my damaged pride and dashed hopes.

MONROE, La. (KNOE 8 News) - A paddling workshop, an initiative to let landowners and others know of the opportunities in nature-based tourism, was held last fall at Black Bayou National Wildlife Refuge. The gathering has paid off for this area, as three waterways trails are now available for canoe adventurers in Northeast Louisiana.
Dora Ann Hatch is LSU Agritourism Coordinator. "That was the beginning of exploring some trails that we could note as paddling trails. So we now have three brochures at all Louisiana Tourism Centers. You can decide to paddle on Tensas River, go to Bayou Bartholomew or Bayou Macon."
Joe Rolfe is a member of the Agritourism Advisory Committee, and along with River Guide John Ruskey helped develop the trails. He tells of the towering cypress trees along one stream that were here before the explorers visited the Mississippi Valley.
"John Ruskey writes very poetically about egrets and cypress trees that can be seen. One of the trails adjoins Bayou Bartholomew. That is Chemin-a-Haut Creek and we've dated several cypress trees on that creek as being over a thousand years old. It is a beautiful stream."
Ecotourism is concerned mainly with natural habitats. Agritourism deals with developing farming areas. The goal of both is to utilize the natural beauty of our state to entice visitors.
Hatch: "It is one more reason for people to stay in our locale. Many people come in for various things and they are looking for extra things to do."
Rolfe: "So it helps the hotel and restaurant industry along with the direct benefits to the tourism industry."
The average length of the new canoe trails is 7 to 10 miles. The brochures list detailed information including GPS locations for access points, water levels and trip difficulty levels.
For more information on the trails, go to: www.explorelouisiananorth.org

Review of the CD by Mel Minter, April 28-May 4, 2011 Alibi:
In a just-completed yearlong series, the Santa Fe/Albuquerque-based Tribute Trio
John Rangel (piano), Michael Glynn (bass) and Cal Haines (drums) -- presented 12 monthly concerts, each focused on a different jazz pianist/composer. On Dedications, they use the insight gained as inspiration for nine original and compelling compositions, delivered with dazzling musicianship and a hand-in-glove responsiveness established over months of collaboration. While the tunes may be inspired by jazz masters, the trio has established a sophisticated voice of its own that invites, and will bear, repeated listening. From finger-popping blues to serpentine songs to impressionistic ballads, Dedications is a top-drawer, soul-satisfying experience.
Comments sent to the Tribute Trio Artistic Director by Nicholas Potter, Nicholas Potter Bookseller, Santa Fe, April 25, 2011:
"I just wanted to congratulate you and the group on a successful concert project. The resulting CD is terrific (on two listenings) and shows a great understanding of the traditions. What impresses me most is that it captures the "feel" of the dedicatees but allows the musicians to be themselves. There is a huge difference in being able to play standards like a cover band (which can be great in its way) versus creating original material that captures the spirit of others as distinctively as Tribute Trio "Dedications" does. They have a unity as an ensemble, but they have individuality as well, and the compositions are first rate.

The Cochise County Attorney's Office will not file charges against a Border Patrol agent who shot and killed a Douglas teenager more than two years ago, officials said.
There is insufficient evidence "to ensure a reasonable conviction likelihood," said Cochise County Chief Criminal Deputy Doyle Johnstun.
Lucas Tidwell, a Border Patrol agent, shot Carlos LaMadrid in the back several times as the teen tried to evade authorities and cross into Agua Prieta.
The County Attorney's Office had tentatively decided not to prosecute "some time ago," Johnstun said, but was waiting for the Justice Department to conclude its own investigation to see if it resulted in any new evidence.
The Justice Department announced on March 9 that there wasn't enough evidence to file federal civil-rights charges or to prove the agent wasn't acting in self-defense.
The government said the 19-year-old was in the line of fire because people were throwing rocks at the agents from the top of the fence.
"I don't even know what to say anymore," Guadalupe Guerrero, LaMadrid's mother said about the county's decision.
"I just can't find justice," she said, as she broke down crying.
Jesus Romo, one of two attorneys representing LaMadrid's family in a civil suit, said he regrets the county's decision.
"I hope that in the future they make their decisions based more on the facts than on pragmatic considerations," he said.
Cochise County Attorney Edward Rheinheimer brought a second-degree murder case against Border Patrol Agent Nicholas Corbett in 2008. There were two trials that ended in hung juries before he dropped the case.
Rheinheimer faced severe backlash from people across the nation; some called for his resignation and others made death threats.
But Johnstun said the County Attorney's Office looks at each case objectively .
"We try to keep politics on both sides away from any decision," he said.
It's a shame that LaMadrid is dead, he said, but, "The agent was put in a position where he felt he had to start shooting to save himself."
Sean Chapman, the attorney representing Tidwell, said the county made the right decision because the agent didn't do anything wrong.
"He was trying to defend himself in a very difficult situation," he said.
"The bigger picture is that the rock throwers and LaMadrid made the unfortunate decision to involve themselves in very dangerous activity," he added.
The pursuit that led to the shooting began about noon March 21, 2011, when someone called Douglas police to report a gold Chevrolet Avalanche had been loaded with bundles of marijuana.
Police officers saw LaMadrid's truck and started following him, but he sped toward the border, police reports say, until he collided with a Border Patrol agent's SUV, according to news accounts.
LaMadrid then jumped out of his truck and ran toward the border fence, the reports say. As he climbed a ladder up the fence, other men in Agua Prieta threw brick-size rocks at Tidwell and he fired a handful of rounds, hitting LaMadrid. He was declared dead several hours later at a hospital.
Now that both investigations have concluded, the civil suit the family filed against the federal government will proceed, Romo said.

"Our Daughter Is on Drugs"
Her Turn, continued
"I can't stand it when William and I fight. In my family, we barely raised our voices. I really did have a picture-perfect Midwestern childhood. Dad taught high school math, and Mom stayed home to raise the three of us. Though we didn't have much money, I never felt deprived. I remember picnics on the lake, sight-seeing trips to nearby cities, church every Sunday. Everything was wonderful until my senior year of high school, when we found out that Helen was on cocaine, heroin--you name it, she tried it. Thank God, she's been clean for 15 years.
"College was a welcome escape for me after the grief my family went through that year with my sister. I met William toward the end of my sophomore year, and it was love at first sight. After our first date, neither of us dated anybody else.
"I'm a program coordinator at the local community center, and I love it. But William has never been happy with his work in the sales division of a manufacturing company here in town. I wish I had a nickel for every time I've suggested we work on his resume so he could look for a more exciting job. He just never makes the effort.
"Things get even worse between us when we visit my parents. I know my dad is pretty conservative and Mom speaks her mind. But William now refuses to visit them at all. Why can't he just ignore their remarks, the way I do?
"Another area we've always struggled with is our sex life, which is terrible. Frankly, I don't think about sex all that much even in the best of times, and right now, it's the farthest thing from my mind. But William is always ready, and if I refuse, he gets upset and thinks I don't love him.
"Somehow Ariel managed to finish high school, and she's living at home. She's been good about doing her chores and respecting her curfew. Plus, she does seem to be sticking with this latest outpatient treatment program, and she's been working as a clerk in a video store. She hasn't expressed any interest in going to college, but we're hoping she'll be ready if and when she cleans up her act for good.
"We may not be able to save our daughter, but please tell me there's something we can do to save our marriage."

MONROE, La. (KNOE 8 News) - Three Monroe area attorneys have filed a lawsuit against the Monroe City School Board over the 13th check. The district is now responding to the suit.
Attorneys Eddie Clark, Ross Downs Jr., and Randolph Street filed a class action petition on Tuesday. The petition alleges, that for decades, administrators from Monroe City Schools gave teachers less money on their 13th checks than they were owed.
Attorney Eddie Clark says more than 100 teachers have joined the suit. Wednesday afternoon the Monroe City School District Interim Superintendent released a response saying the claims in the lawsuit are unfounded. The whole text of that statement is below.
For Immediate Release
Date: February 6,
MONROE, LA - The Monroe City School District has been informed of a lawsuit filed against it on February 5, 2013 in State District Court alleging that it has breached contractual obligations in its payment of compensation to present and past employees of the School District.
We disagree with the litany of unfounded allegations recited in the lawsuit. The allegations erroneously maintain that the School District has breached one or more contractual obligations owed to its employees regarding the payment of salary supplements funded by sales taxes. The legal conclusions that are set forth in the lawsuit are not well founded or supported by prevailing principals of law. The School District intends to vigorously defend against the claims asserted in this lawsuit. We are confident that the law, when applied, will fully exonerate the School District of liability and result in an outright dismissal of the claims asserted, which include requests for attorney fees, monetary damages and statutory penalties.
