Ferrari Brain or Old Banger – how well does your Brain work?
You can't become your Ideal Self with a Brain that is sub-optimal. Because your Brain determines your behaviour, happiness, effectiveness and your interactions with others. As Dr Daniel Amen says 'Your Brain is the hardware of your Soul'.
When people say that it is your Response to Stressful Life Events that is the key to Happiness – it is often assumed that they are talking about your willpower or character or personality. But they're not. What they are talking about (whether they know it or not) is the health of your Brain.
Because your Brain will determine how you Respond – it runs the show. It's your Brain that gets you a job or a date. It produces your Feelings. It determines your Habits. It controls your Mind. And it's your Brain that controls the workings of your Body. Your Hormones. Your Metabolism. Your Sleep.
The workings of your Mind are dependent on the health of your Brain.
The workings of your Brain are dependent on the health of your Body.
And the workings of your Body are dependent on your Lifestyle.
Do You Have A High Quality Lifestyle?
So how good is your Lifestyle? How fit and healthy are you right now? Is your diet the best it can possibly be? Do you get enough rest? Enough sunshine? Enough exercise?
It's unlikely that you are running a Ferrari Brain if your Body resembles an Old Banger…. Your Brain is the hungriest organ in your Body. It takes the most energy, the most nutrients. It is built from the food that you have eaten. How you think and feel literally depends on what you eat.
Resolve To Improve Your Brain
Every New Year, millions of us will resolve to try to improve our Life. Most of us will try to do this by either vowing to eat less food and do more exercise – without thinking about improving our nutrition – or by trying to give up a bad habit – without first replacing it with a better one.
More people will make Resolutions about the size of their waistline, than the quality of their Brain. The size of your waistline is important. It is a key factor in your health. But instead of being an Old Banger with a smaller waist, earned through deprivation, why not become a Ferrari instead? Everything improves, including your Waist.
Create A High Quality Lifestyle
Focus on the Quality of Your Lifestyle, not the Quantity of your Food because your Body and Brain will rebuild themselves in the coming year whether you feed them well or not. What do years of sub-optimal nutrition look and feel like for you? What will it feel like in another 5 years? Or 10? Are you starting to feel 'the years or your age' catching up with you? That's your Lifestyle at work.
The best thing about creating a High Quality Lifestyle for yourself is that Everything in your life will work better. You focus on your nutrition and as if by magic your Time Management gets better, your Wrinkles and Cellulite begin to disappear, you whizz through the things you've been putting off, you find you can move on from old problems, make new friends. And you will automatically respond better to Stressful Life Events.
What better New Year's Resolution is there than to take more care of yourself? To make your Lifestyle the one that your Body and Brain deserves. Because isn't that what our New Year's Resolutions are about really? We want to be better than we are.
A High Quality Lifestyle will give you a High Quality Brain – because your Brain can grow new cells and create new connections. It will allow you to process information more quickly, improve your memory and your decision making. It will improve your Mood, your Sleep, your Thinking. You can literally upgrade your Brain from Old Banger Brain to Ferrari Brain.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - The tatters of Tropical Depression 5 are back
in Louisiana, bringing flash flood watches to much of Louisiana.
National Weather Service meteorologist Christopher Bannan
(BAN-uhn) says the slow-moving low was north of Baton Rouge by
Tuesday afternoon.
A flash flood watch extended as far southwest as Avoyelles,
Evangeline, Acadia and Vermilion parishes, and as far northeast as
Madison Parish.
The weather service says the system is expected to dump three to
five inches of rain in the southeast and torrential downpours of 2
to 3 inches in a short time farther north on Wednesday, with
locally higher amounts.
It says the threat for heavy rain was expected to end by
Thursday, as the system weakens and moves into Mississippi.

KABUL, July 7 (Reuters) - A man Afghan officials say is a member of the Taliban shot dead a woman accused of adultery in front of a crowd near Kabul, a video obtained by Reuters showed, a sign that the austere Islamist group dictates law even near the Afghan capital. In the three-minute video, a turban-clad man approaches a woman kneeling in the dirt and shoots her five times at close range with an automatic rifle, to cheers of jubilation from the 150 or so men watching in a village in Parwan province. "Allah warns us not to get close to adultery because it's the wrong way," another man says as the shooter gets closer to the woman. "It is the order of Allah that she be executed".Read »

Louisiana Should Dissolve The England Authority
When I was thirteen years old, on a freezing day in March, standing on the tarmac of my hometown airport, I shook hands with the President of the United States.
President Clinton had been to Alexandria, Louisiana several times before, but his trips were usually unannounced. They weren't public events or campaign fundraisers; he was just quietly visiting his old friends, almost all of whom he knew from his days as the Governor of Arkansas. True story: In 1998, my father and one of his brothers were playing a round of golf at the Alexandria Country Club, and when they made the turn from the ninth, President Clinton and his entourage pulled up next to them in their golf carts. No one, not even the local newspaper, knew he was in town.
But on that freezing day in March 1996, everyone knew that the President was visiting. Hundreds of people showed up. Air Force One was framed perfectly behind the makeshift stage and podium, but President Clinton was actually forty miles away, visiting Fort Polk in Leesville, Louisiana. So, the crowd waited for over two hours until Marine One descended and the President finally ambled out of the helicopter and onto the stage.
The President could have selected another, warmer, more convenient, and more secure venue for his speech. In fact, he spent that night in Alexandria, after attending a performance of the Pentecostals of Alexandria's passion play, Messiah. Air Force One sat in Alexandria overnight.
But he chose the tarmac of our local airport for a reason. The airport, which now boasts one of the finest terminals in the country for a city its size, is located in a decommissioned air force base.
For nearly fifty years, England Air Force Base was part of the lifeblood of Central Louisiana, generating more than $100 million annually to its local economy and employing nearly 4,000 people. In 1989, when Dick Cheney, then Secretary of Defense, announced that the base would be decommissioned, the conventional wisdom was that the base's closure would irreparably devastate Alexandria. After all, between 5-10% of its workforce and an even more substantial portion of its tax base would be gone, permanently, relocated or reassigned to another base in another part of the country or the world.
But Alexandria defied conventional wisdom.
Thanks to the tenacity and the ingenuity of people like former Alexandria Mayor Ned Randolph and, perhaps most importantly, the late Jim Meyer, England Air Force Base was transformed into England Airpark– a dynamic, beautiful, mixed-use community that should serve as a national model for best practices in military base re-use.
And that's why President Clinton invited the people of Central Louisiana to the tarmac: As the saying goes, we were handed a lemon, and somehow, we made lemonade.
Twenty-two years ago, when England Air Force Base officially closed, local and state leaders were forced to confront an enormous and unprecedented challenge. Like many other cities, Alexandria could have simply annexed the base, but there was a huge risk of failure. Forcing an already cash-strapped city with the burden of extending services to what was, for lack of a better term, a "ghost town" didn't seem like a viable option, particularly considering that the base's closure depleted the city's tax base, threatening its ability to properly serve and maintain existing infrastructure.
Also, at the time, the City did not have the resources or the capacity to engage in a full-scale business recruitment initiative in order to locate tenants for the hundreds of thousands in square footage of newly-available commercial and residential real estate that had been suddenly abandoned by the federal government, and, even if it did, the optics of a city government competing against private property owners for businesses and home owners would have been terrible. There were other issues as well: Much of the decommissioned air force base was a brownfield, which means that redevelopment required money for environmental remediation.
So, instead of the City of Alexandria taking control and ownership over the former air force base, the Louisiana legislature created the England Economic and Industrial Development District (better known as the "England Authority"). Quoting from the enabling legislation (bold mine):
The district is created for the object and purposes of accepting title from the United States of America to any or all real and personal property and improvements included in England Air Force Base and utilizing that and other property, and all assistance available from the United States government and all other sources, to replace and enhance the economic benefits generated by the former air base with diversified activities, including, but not limited to, activities and planned land uses to foster creation of new jobs, economic development, industry, health care, commerce, manufacturing, tourism, relocation of people and businesses to the area, aviation, military, warehousing, transportation, offices, recreation, housing, and conservation, the acquisition of land and improvements, and the construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities, improvements and infrastructure, including buildings, runways, roads, bridges, drainage, and utilities.
La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 33:130.352
It was a creative, ingenious solution, and it worked. If you've ever had the opportunity to visit England Airpark, you know that the England Authority has done a tremendous job. Again, President Clinton recognized this way back in 1996.
There's just one enormous problem here, and in many ways, this problem is the result of the England Authority becoming a victim of its own success.
At the risk of offending some of my best and dearest friends, I strongly believe the England Authority should be dissolved, immediately, and that England Airpark should finally, once and for all, be annexed into the City of Alexandria.
The problem, of course, is that the England Authority, by its very nature and design, is antithetical to the fundamental definition and basic function of American democracy.
England Airpark is a neighborhood. People live and work there. And in America, we elect the leaders who represent our neighborhoods. If you live or work in England Airpark, you are represented by ten appointed board members, two of whom, believe it or not, are selected by a powerful conservative lobbying organization, the Chamber of Commerce. And if you work for the England Authority, you are not protected by the same civil service laws provided to practically every other public-sector employee in the entire State of Louisiana. See Slowinski v. England Econ. & Indus. Dev. Dist., 2002-0189 (La. 10/15/02), 828 So. 2d 520.
Twenty-two years ago, when the air force base was shuttered and there was a real possibility that its closure could have decimated the entire Central Louisiana economy, it may have made a great deal of sense to create a "district" to accept title of the base's properties from the federal government.
But at some point, we need to be willing to unfurl the "Mission Accomplished" banner. At some point, we need to realize that when an unelected board of political appointees is given authority over an entire community, however well-intentioned and well-qualified they may be, it is still, nonetheless, an affront to the democratic process and is likely unconstitutional.
There is another glaring problem with the enabling legislation, and it is time for our elected officials to address it. Quoting (bold mine):
There is hereby created a body politic and corporate of the state which shall exist in perpetuity and be known as England Economic and Industrial Development District, hereinafter referred to as the "district". The district shall be composed of all of the territory located within Rapides Parish. The district shall be a political subdivision of the state as defined in Article VI, Section 44(2) of the Constitution of Louisiana. Pursuant to Article VI, Sections 19 and 20 of the Constitution of Louisiana, the district, acting through its board of commissioners, the governing authority of the said district, is hereby granted all of the rights, powers, privileges, and immunities accorded by law and the Constitution of Louisiana to political subdivisions of the state, including but not limited to the power of taxation, the power to incur debt and issue revenue and general obligation bonds, certificates of indebtedness, bonds and certificate anticipation notes, refunding bonds, and the power of taxation, subject to the limitations hereinafter provided.La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 33:130.351
The law empowered an unelected board of political appointees, in perpetuity, with "all of the rights, powers and privileges" afforded to every other political subdivision of the state. And then, it said (bold mine):
The exercise by the board of the powers conferred by this Subpart shall be deemed and held to be essential governmental functions of the state. As the exercise of the powers granted hereby will be in all respects for the benefit of the people of the state, for the increase of their commerce and prosperity, and for the improvement of their health and living conditions, the district shall not be required to pay any taxes, including, but not limited to, sales and use taxes, ad valorem, occupational licensing, income, or any other taxes of any kind or nature, or assessments upon any property acquired or used by the district under the provisions of this Subpart, or upon the income therefrom, and any property acquired or used by the district under the provisions of this Subpart and the income therefrom, and any bonds issued hereunder and the income therefrom shall be exempt from taxation by the state and by any parish, municipality, or other political subdivision of the state. The district shall not be deemed to be a public utility and shall not be subject in any respect to the authority, control, regulation, or supervision of the Louisiana Public Service Commission or any other regulatory body of the state, or any political subdivision thereof.La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 33:130.354
In other words, it is not only controlled by unelected appointees in perpetuity, it is also un-taxable and completely immune from regulation. Some of my libertarian friends may read this and think it sounds like a utopia, but in practice, it should be easy to understand how this arrangement undermines accountability and transparency in government. And while it is interesting to note that the "district" itself is not required to pay any taxes, the truth is: The entire airpark was built with taxpayer dollars.
I want to make this abundantly clear: I am not and would never disparage the individual members of the England Authority or the good men and women who work for them. With very few exceptions, they have all done a tremendous job, and as a community, we should all be thankful for their public service. The men and women who serve on the England Authority are not doing so because they crave power or prestige; there's no money involved here. They serve because they were asked to serve and because they legitimately want to make Central Louisiana a better place.
The England Authority was created to ensure the sustainability and viability of a critically important part of our region, all the while shielding the City of Alexandria from the very real financial risks and liability it could have assumed. And the England Authority succeeded, wildly.
Despite the language of its enabling statute, I have a hard time believing that anyone, twenty-two years ago, would have imagined that they were actually creating a new city within a city. The England Authority wasn't envisioned as an unelected City Council; it was established with the hope and expectation that it could save a decommissioned air force base. The task seemed so tall that the legislature didn't even contemplate a mechanism for "sunsetting" the authority.
But they should have, and this year, I hope they will.
Aside from the fact the England Authority is facially undemocratic, there are other compelling and important reasons why Louisiana should dissolve the England Authority: Regional economic competitiveness requires and demands a unified and collaborative strategy. Today, the England Authority acts as its own independent and ultimately, for all intents and purposes, unaccountable economic development agency.
It competes against the City and the community it was created to serve: Offering potential businesses severely discounted leases, essentially free infrastructure, and a whole host of other incentives, all underwritten by taxpayers, and it can do all of these things without ever supplying citizens with adequate and appropriate returns on their investments. It pains me to say it, but the leadership at the England Authority somehow has been convinced that it is entirely acceptable and appropriate to compete against the actual local government for state funding and business recruitment. In so doing, they potentially distort the market, they undermine the public trust, and they actively promote fragmentation.
It is inexcusable and myopic. This isn't about "competition;" it's about cannibalism and "mission creep."
Thaddeous Stevens #
Wow ! Fascinating reading. Whether you agree or disagree this a classic example of usefulness of blogs. Creative thinking and reexamining holy mantra. A response might be, " if it is not broke don't try to fix it. " A cliche', but applicable here it may be argued. The success of the England Authority and its able staff is acknowledged properly by you. There are so many other pressing local issues in need of confronting and fixing. How about parish wide trash and garbage mandatory pick up ? Your legal analysis insightful and intriguing. But in a state and area of economic "last-or- near-last- places", do we want to mess with an on-going engine of economic success . Exceptions to unelected juridical-political entities may be justified under certain circumstances, and , certainly, as in the blog occasionally reviewed. And the "neighborhood " consists of renters not home owners(an important legal distinction only) , and 100% elected to move in to the Airpark after it was established as an unelected governing authority. Other political entities like our CVB have appointees from non elected entities. Again , an interesting point whether two Chamber appointees should govern a "population" ? Many industrial districts have such non public entities with members appointed , but probably with no "citizens" under their jurisdiction. But the Chamber appointees have to be confirmed by either or both of City and Police Jury , i believe , so indirect popular control. Again , interesting reading . A closing cliche , however , in my opinion: "Let sleeping dogs lie. " Thank you for your provocative blogs.January 8, 2014
Thaddeus, thank you for your insightful comment. I think you know me well enough to know that I'm not trying to incite a riot, that, as you point out, it's important for us to occasionally question the "holy mantra."
This particular subject has been something I've thought about for many years: At what point do we say, "The England Authority has fulfilled its mission"? My main argument, which I hope was made clear, is that the Authority was established, essentially, as an economic development agency, tasked specifically with re-using a decommissioned air force base, an agency created to prevent the City's exposure and reduce its liability.
But when it begins to behave more like a local government, when it competes against the City for projects that would add to the City's tax base- like, for example, a community college or a major manufacturing facility (projects, by the way, that would add almost nothing to the "tax base" of England Airpark), it should be clear the Authority no longer serves its intended purpose.
Again, this is not to suggest, at all, that the people who serve and work for the England Authority have done anything less than a stellar job, and I understand your point about, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." But, I'll put it another way: The England Authority was created to fix something that was broken, and they fixed it. Now, it is time to give the airpark back to the community it serves, to provide the residents of Alexandria and Rapides Parish with the value of the assets that were already built by taxpayers. And while the residents of England Oaks may be renters and not homeowners, they are still voters and citizens; they deserve the right to elect the people who represent their neighborhood just as much as the folks in Landmark and Tennyson Oaks.
I should also make it clear: I am not suggesting that the City of Alexandria take over control of the Alexandria International Airport. So, when I say, "Louisiana should dissolve the England Authority," I mean: Louisiana should scale back the Authority's mission to include, only, the operations and maintenance of the airport facilities, and it should authorize the City of Alexandria the ability to annex the remainder of the airpark facilities.
I'm just thinking out loud here, so feel free to correct me if I am wrong: But it seems to me like the City could take title from the England Authority and allow those businesses the opportunity to opt-out of their long-term leases and purchase their properties at a steep discount, in consideration of the taxes they'd be contributing in exchange. That way, the City would not be saddled with owning and controlling these properties; the community would become a value-added part of the City, and the private-sector would finally be empowered. With respect to the vacant properties, title could be transferred to the Greater Alexandria Economic Authority (which already has its own dedicated source of revenue), or, alternately, the City could assume the functions of the Authority and market and incentivize those properties for business recruitment initiatives.
With respect to police and fire services and trash pick-up, I don't anticipate this would be a big issue at all; the City limits are already so bizarrely drawn that the annexation of England Airpark would technically qualify as in-fill development. That is, the City already provides those services to residents very nearby.January 9, 2014

Despite the name, there are no sea oats this far west of the dunes, and there are certainly none growing in the strip of stores that make up Pinebrook Square. It is a new strip, one of the too-manys that have popped from the sand in the western extremities, and it`s mostly unoccupied. But neither
location nor lack of neighbors seems to have impeded the opening of this new restaurant a few months ago.
Only four other tables were occupied while we were there. And no one wandered into the bar, which is set off to one side, but not really screened from the view of the dining room. We were grateful for the lack of bar patrons and for the music that was playing at the right level in the background.

ST. AUGUSTINE, FL – The Florida Federation of Fairs & Livestock Shows, the state's leading fair industry organization, honored South Florida Fair Vice President and Chief Operations Officer Victoria Chouris at the Federation's annual convention and dinner in St. Augustine. Chouris was enshrined in the Federation's prestigious Hall of Fame highlighting a 29 year career that began in the Fair's finance office in West Palm Beach in 1982.
"I am so amazed and proud of this honor, I want to shout it from the rooftop," Chouris said afterward. "Thank-you to everyone that made this possible."
As Chief Operations Officer of the South Florida Fair, Chouris is among those who steer Palm Beach County's oldest and largest outdoor event held each January. She helps manage a full and part time staff of 45 employees and directly oversees historic Yesteryear Village on the Fairgrounds. The Ohio native is very active in both national and state Fair associations and is connected with local organizations including Board memberships with the Palm Beach County Convention and Visitors Bureau, Palm Beach State College Foundation and Leadership Palm Beach County. Her induction into the Florida Federation of Fairs Hall of Fame comes on the heels of capturing the prestigious 2010 Athena Award given annually to an outstanding Palm Beach County businesswoman.
"It is with great pleasure and pride that our own Victoria Chouris was inducted into the Florida Federation of Fairs Hall of Fame for her work with our Fair and her contributions to our industry through her activity with both the Florida Federation of Fairs and the International Association of Fairs and Expositions," said Rick Vymlatil, South Florida Fair President and Chief Executive Officer. "I know you will all join me in congratulating Vicki on this recognition and wish her all the best as she continues on in her career with our Fair."
The Florida Federation of Fairs & Livestock Shows works to increase the overall quality of Florida's agricultural fairs. The organization provides 55 member fairs the support and guidance needed to enlighten youth and educate fairgoers about agriculture, trade, entertainment and the heritage of Florida.
Chouris is the third South Florida Fair representative to be inducted into the Florida Federation of Fairs & Livestock Shows Hall of Fame preceded by Vymlatil and former Manager Brantley "Buck" Christian.

I purchased these new sometime in the late 1990's or early 2000 - I can't remember exactly when! I checked online and they were manufactured in 1996 and sold for $600 each. They were not used very hard - we have a small home and never played them loudly.

Welcome to the website of
the Westmorland
Red Squirrel Society. We are a
group of local volunteers who share an interest in the conservation of our native
red squirrels in the South Cumbria area.
We aim to raise awareness about
the threats to the red squirrels' survival and to work with our members, the local
community and other groups towards eliminating those threats wherever possible, so
ensuring that the sight of our charming red squirrels can be enjoyed by future
generations of Cumbrians and visitors alike.
Red squirrel
revival in SE LakesMore and more, WRSS is getting reports of
red squirrels reclaiming old territories in locations where people are saying
they haven't been seen for 5, 10, 15, even 20 years. This is particularly the case where WRSS volunteers have
been working hard over the last 3 years to reduce the threat of grey
squirrels, and many landowners and individuals have also been contributing
towards keeping the spread of greys in check – a truly local
But WRSS is not
acting alone.
It is one of many similar voluntary red squirrel
groups in the north of England, between them covering Cumbria and much of
Northumberland. Since 2011, these voluntary groups have had official backing from
the Red Squirrels Northern England project, which for WRSS has led to increasing
and welcome support from bodies such as the National Trust and the Lake District
National Park.
It all adds up to a
real opportunity to make a lasting difference, and now WRSS wants to build on
this success to ensure a safe future for our red squirrels in SE Cumbria.
To do that, WRSS needs your help – both financial
and practical. Read more>>
Report your
sightingsWhether you are out walking, or if you see red or grey
squirrels in your garden, we are very interested to hear about it. We rely on your
information to help us monitor our squirrel populations. You can report your
sightings using the online sightings form on our Sightings>> page.
All red sightings reported will be shown on our WRSS 2014 Red
Sightings Map opposite, along with the grid reference and date of last
sighting for that location. No personal details of those reporting the sightings
will be shown.
It is recommended to view the larger map and then return to our site using your
browser back button. You will then see a list of all the sightings with a date and
grid reference for each. If you select the satellite or earth view for the map and
zoom in, you can almost see the squirrels!
We really appreciate your help by reporting your sightings - thank you!

Two missing Florida girls, who were the subject of a nationwide Amber Alert, were located in western Kentucky Sunday evening.
Dispatchers say Tatiana Rosado, 15, and Megan Morris, 14, were found safe in Paducah. According to news reports in Florida, the two girls went missing Saturday afternoon in Collier County, and police were searching for a Missouri man the duo met online.
The Amber Alert was later canceled.
According to WPSD, police arrested a man and located two missing girls after a traffic stop. Police used cell phone GPS technology to track down the driver along Hinkleville Road. He was reportedly heading toward Illinois.
Officials have not released the name of the man arrested, but a West Palm Beach TV station identified the man with the girls as Ivan Eugene Coleman, 22.
The FBI is leading the investigation.

Our Own Oddities
The absurdity of seeing people in St. Louis:While Eddie Silva's "Street People" [RFT, April 4] succeeds admirably in pointing out the absurdity of St. Louis' ill-conceived public-art project, another point to make would be its similarly surreal qualities. After all, part of the joy of cows, pigs and dogs on parade amidst skyscrapers and pedestrian hotspots is the unexpected, historical and anthropomorphic self-reflectivity of it all. Bravo to St. Louis for realizing that the most absurd and unexpected thing to find in the city would be people! I fear that the best we can hope for, compared with the "Wow, cool" or even "Oh, how cute" responses associated with our four-legged friends, is perhaps a resounding "Hmm, that's odd!" Odd indeed -- but at least we're not a cowtown!

Failing Grade
The MAP test hurts students:Give Jeannette Batz a raise. A big raise. She scooped the Post-Dispatch big-time with her article on testing ["Testing, Testing, Testing," RFT, April 11]. I've taught for 28 years in Missouri's public schools. The MAP test hurts students. Batz did a great job getting toward this truth. I hope she or someone else at the RFT can follow up on this story. There's much more to say about the damage these sorts of tests do to our students and thus to all of us. Batz deserves a huge round of applause, if not a huge raise, for writing so intelligently about such an important issue.

Overdue Bill
Proposed legislation needs a fix: Thank you for your update on Steven Toney and Ellen Reasonover, exonerated and released from Missouri prisons [Najeeb Hasan, "Show Me the Money," RFT, April 11]. The article poignantly described the hand-to-mouth existence these individuals have confronted since winning their long-delayed freedom. It did not, however, mention a glaring weakness of the legislation proposed by state Rep. Betty Thompson to allow the wrongfully imprisoned to sue the state for compensation.
The bill would not allow compensation for anyone who was serving a sentence for another conviction at the same time he or she was serving a sentence for the wrongful conviction. In Toney's case, parole for a prior conviction was revoked in 1983 when he was wrongfully convicted of rape and sodomy. Even though DNA evidence exonerated Toney in 1996, he was not cleared of the prior conviction for which he had finished out the sentence. Reasonover, too, served time for another conviction during her wrongful imprisonment. Neither would be eligible for compensation under the bill as written.
I pointed out this weakness to Rep. Thompson and then-state Sen. Lacy Clay after I testified about the bill before the Missouri Senate last year. It would be ironic if Toney and Reasonover could not benefit from a wrongful-imprisonment compensation law passed because of the very injustices they suffered. I hope Rep. Thompson offers an amended bill or writes Toney's name into the bill along with Reasonover's.

Et tu, Hartmannus?
"It's not the critic who counts":I have followed but not participated in the work of St. Louis 2004, but I find the tone and content of Ray Hartmann's critique of St. Louis 2004 to much more closely exemplify the demoralizing impediments to our community's progress than any shortcomings in St. Louis 2004's efforts to timely meet its goals ["2004: A Wasted-Space Odyssey," RFT, April 4].
It is as though Theodore Roosevelt wrote his famous dictum for Hartmann: "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
If, in the end, our community fails to timely move toward ending racism, rebuilding affordable housing, fixing health care, uplifting education, improving the environment -- goals, breathtaking in their ambition, announced by St. Louis 2004 at its inception -- I say to Hartmann, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in St. Louis 2004 but in ourselves."
Eddie Roth
St. LouisSelf-Expression
Masturbation isn't art: Regarding James Ribble's comments about his live masturbation performance at the Arousal festival with his female companion ["Letters," RFT, April 4]: Hey, James, masturbation is not art! Look it up in the dictionary, if you have one. You push the envelope too far and call it art ... now even more people will think the art community has really lost its mind. But you probably don't care, do you, James? Many people involved in the field of art education care, though. They work very hard to advance the field of art and create an environment of pride and professionalism with people who don't have the same appreciation at all.

The Bone Marrow Transplant Program at Miami Children's Hospital is the region's first and most experienced care provider for children requiring a bone marrow transplant procedure. Established in 1991, the program was originally accredited in 2003 by the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapies (FACT) for all aspects of bone marrow transplantation and has consistently maintained the rigorous qualifications necessary to ensure its continued standing over the years. The program is an accredited center for transplants under the auspices of the Children's Oncology Group and is a member of the Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant Consortium and the International Blood and Marrow Transplant Registry. Membership in these organizations brings access to the very latest national and international research data.

The shooting happened in broad daylight at the McDonald's on Eastern Boulevard. Shots were fired in the parking lot while customers were inside.
Terry Ware was a witness to the shootout.
"I seen two guys running toward that way through the parking lot, then I see a young man go inside that McDonald's screaming he been shot," Ware said.
He said there were multiple shooters, but only one victim. A gunshot can be seen through the windshield of a Ford Expedition.
"Resulted with one male having life-threatening injuries," Sgt. Donna Mackey said. "It appears he was shot multiple times."
Yet police aren't talking about the possible motive of the shooters.
"It sounds like it had to deal with drugs because there's a lot of it laying on the ground and you can actually smell it," Ware said.
Police said this was not a random shooting. So far there have been no arrests, but they do have a suspect who was last seen fleeing on foot towards the Best Buy parking lot.
If you have any information about this ongoing investigation you can contact the Montgomery police at 334-241-2651.
This is the second shooting at that McDonald's recently. In September someone fired shots into the Playhouse.

The National Weather Service in Miami said the region experienced 1 to 2 inches of rain as a stationary front crouched over South Florida. In Coral Springs, forecaster Don Morrison said, nearly 5 inches of rain fell after Saturday night's "big drencher."

If you want to take time off for the birth or adoption of a child, it's smart to plan ahead. Use this helpful checklist as you research your options for paternity leave.
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), a federal law, provides many Americans 12 weeks of unpaid time off to care for an immediate family member, such as a newborn or newly adopted child. The FMLA applies to most men and women who can answer "yes" to all three of these questions:
Besides the FMLA, one or more of these additional options may exist for your paternity leave:
Put your paperwork in a folder to stay organized. Keep copies of everything, including any forms you submit:
Ask around to find out how other men at your company managed their paternity leave.

Can I relate MM-GBSA energies to binding affinity?
MM-GBSA is used to estimate relative binding affinity for a list of ligands. The absolute values calculated are not necessarily in agreement with experimental binding affinities. However, the ranking of the ligands based on the calculated binding energies (MMGBSA DG Bind) can be expected to agree reasonably well with ranking based on experimental binding affinity, particularly in the case of congeneric series.
Keywords: Prime, MM-GBSA, MMGBSA, binding affinity

210 MLK, Jr. Blvd.,
Room 107, City-County Bldg.
Madison, WI 53703-3342
Phone: (608) 266-4771
WI Relay Service
Fax: (608) 266-4128
Email: Treasurer
Business Hours:
Monday through Friday,
8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The Treasurer's Office is closed on the following days: Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, and Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Payment is for the 2013 tax year only. Delinquent real estate taxes must be paid to the Dane County Treasurer's Office, PO Box 1299, Madison, WI 53701 or online at their Real Estate Tax Payment site.
Q: What is the lottery credit and do I qualify for one?
A: Property owners can receive a lottery and gaming credit on their primary residence. The credit must be applied for. To be eligible to receive the credit you must complete an application form (see Wisconsin Dept of Revenue ). During the months of December and January, return the completed application to the city treasurer. All other times the application should be returned to the Dane County Treasurer. Please remember two restrictions:
- The property must have been your primary residence on January 1st, 2013
- You may only claim the lottery credit on one property—your primary residence.
The lottery credit is based on the school district in which you live and is applied to the amount of first installment due.
Q: What is the "First Dollar Credit"?
A: The First Dollar Credit was new with tax year 2008. Unlike the lottery credit, property owners who are eligible will receive the credit on their bill automatically without any forms to sign or applications to submit. To be eligible, the property (otherwise known as the "parcel") must have an improvement. If you have an amount listed in the box labeled "Ass'd Value Improvements" in the upper left part of your tax bill, you qualify for the credit. The amount of the credit will be the same for all parcels within the same school district as long as the value of the improvements meets a small threshold amount. For 2013 the amounts range between $71.15 and $88.67 (depending on school district). The credit is divided between the first installment, due January 31st, and the 2nd installment, due July 31st.
Q: Why is there a reference to a "drainage district" on my property tax bill?
A: A small number of properties (tax parcels) in the City of Madison are in drainage districts. As of 2008 if a parcel is within a drainage district, the city is required to indicate that on the tax bill. If your property is within a drainage district (this applies to less than 5% of the parcels in Madison), you will see a reference to that in the upper right portion of the tax bill. In addition to the name of the district, you will see a dollar sign ($) and a zero. In theory, property within a drainage district could be assessed for work done in that district. If that were the case, the dollar amount of the assessment would be listed. However, for 2013 there were no assessments (therefore, the "$0"). Drainage district work is usually done in rural areas. It is not anticipated that any parcels within the city of Madison will have a drainage assessment in the foreseeable future.
Q: How do I pay half of my Real Property Tax bill?
A: In the amount field, enter the amount you will be paying (either the first installment or the full payment). See Real Tax Bill sample.
Q: When will I get credited for paying my taxes?
A: You will be credited for paying your taxes online the moment you click the Confirm button after going through our online process. Even though it might take 5 business days for your financial institution to process your transaction and send us your payment details, you will get credit for paying your taxes on the date and time that you click Confirm from our online payments site. To verify this, please print the confirmation page or make sure your email address is entered correctly where requested so that you receive an email notification. Please keep in mind that it will take up to 5 business days to reflect your payment in our online property lookup.
Q: Can I use my credit card to pay my property taxes?
A: Yes. There is a convenience fee on all property tax credit card transactions. The convenience fee is 2.5% of the amount of the property tax payment. The City of Madison is required to collect and remit 100% of the property tax billed amounts to the taxing jurisdictions. Therefore, the fee for using this type of payment method is borne by the user.
Q: I'm paying by e-check. How long before I see the amount debited from my bank account?
A: In banking, e-checks are referred to as "ACHs". This is a bank-to-bank process that typically takes two to three business days to complete. Therefore, don't expect to see your payment withdrawn from your account immediately after you make the payment. However, if after three business days, you still haven't seen your account debited, please call the treasurer's office (266-4771). There have been rare instances where taxpayers have entered incorrect banking information and inadvertently debited someone else's account. When this happens, we need to try to correct the mistake as soon as possible.
Q: Why can't I login as a registered user with US Bank and pay my property tax bill?
A: There isn't a way to use your existing account to pay your tax bill. We've had difficulty in the past with users forgetting their passwords and locking their accounts. Given the time-sensitive nature of tax payments, we're trying to avoid this situation by not using registered accounts. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Q: Where can I find my parcel number?
A: Your parcel number is located at the top of your tax bill or on your assessment notice. You can also look-up your parcel number on the Assessor's Property Lookup. Your parcel number is also available by contacting the Assessor's Office at (608) 266-4531 (between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.) Monday through Friday.
NOTE: Enter only the portion of your parcel number after the 251. The initial 251 of your parcel number is our municipality code and will be entered automatically for you. Do not include dashes in the parcel number.
Q: Where do I pay delinquent real property taxes?
A: Delinquent real estate taxes are paid to the Dane County Treasurer's Office, PO Box 1299, Madison, WI 53701. The telephone number is (608) 266-4151.
Q: How do I get a receipt?
A: For online payments, the confirmation page will be your receipt. You will also receive an e-mail message confirming payment if you supply your correct email address in the box indicating that you want an email confirmation. For your convenience, you can print a receipt directly from the "Tax Details" tab for your property on the Assessor's Property Lookup. You can also request a paid receipt by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope, and the top portion of your property tax bill or your parcel number to the City Treasurer's Office, PO Box 2999, Madison, WI 53701. We will send a paid receipt to you.
Q: How do I change my mailing address?
A: Contact the City Assessor's Office at (608) 266-4531 or email your change to firstname.lastname@example.com
Q: How can I check to see if my mortgage company has paid my property taxes?
A: Property tax payments are posted each business day after 7:45 p.m on the Assessor's Property Lookup. Search for your property and then choose the "Tax Details" tab. Payment information is towards the bottom of the page.
Q: When is the last day to pay my real estate or personal property taxes?
A: The last day to pay real estate and personal property taxes is January 31, 2014. You can pay the first installment or a full payment. You should not wait until the last minute on January 31, 2014 to make an online payment. While the Internet is meant to be available 24 hours a day, the City of Madison cannot be held liable for your inability to make payments via the Internet by the due date. The City cannot accept online payments after midnight on January 31, 2014.
Q. Is there a "grace period" for late tax payments?
A. Yes. The grace period is defined as the first five business days after the due date. For the 2013 tax bills, that means the last day of the grace period will be February 7th, 2014. Payments may be made in person during business hours between February 1st and February 7th and will still be considered timely. The timeliness of mailed payments will be determined by the postmark. To be timely, the postmark must indicate a date no later than February 7th. Website payments are not accepted after January 31st.
Q: Can I pay taxes for non-City of Madison property?
A: No, the City only accepts City of Madison property tax payments.
Do you still have a question that was not answered in the above FAQs? Please call the City Treasurer's Office at (608) 266-4771.

1. Begin by cutting a strip of patterned paper to create the large "ribbon" on the front of the bag. My bag is 8 inches wide so I cut my paper 6 inches wide. Find the center of the strip and measure up 3 inches. Using a Fiskars paper trimmer, cut from this point to each bottom corner. Adhere the paper to the front of the bag.
2. Cut a section of patterned paper to go across the top of top of the bag. Before adhering it, use the Up In the Clouds Interchangeable Border Punch to create a strip to go along the bottom edge. Adhere the patterned paper strip and border punch strip to the bag.
3. I used the Fuse Creativity System® to create this scalloped embellishment, cardstock, and stamping ink, create a gift tag for the bag. Adhere it to the front of the bag.
To finish it off, just add some colorful tissue paper or shredded filler!
A plain brown kraft gift bag can be quickly and easily transformed into a one-of-a-kind presentation for a special gift, white cardstock, and some patterned papers.
