Simple precautions can keep loved ones safe during parades

HOUMA Mardi Gras is a time for celebration, but crowds, floats and alcohol can be a dangerous combination.
Safety tips
A big safety risk comes from climbing, sitting and standing on barricades.
Do not climb on or over barricades, Dr. Hebert Muncie, director of the emergency room at Ochsner St. Anne General Hospital in Raceland, said. You should be aware of your surroundings when driving or walking near parades and parade traffic to avoid being hit by a float or other vehicle.
If floats are within 10 feet, children more than 6 years old are also not allowed to be held in another persons arms or stand on that persons shoulders not even those of their parents.
Ochsner officials also advised care when going after throws.
They suggest throws should be picked up from the ground carefully to keep hands from being trampled.
They also said to never run between or reach under floats, even if the floats are not moving.
One really nice bead is not worth getting injured and ending up in the emergency room, so dont fight over throws, Muncie said.
Houma Interim Police Chief Todd Duplantis also offered a list of general tips to keep folks safe through the frenzy of the Carnival.
Suggestions include parking in safe, well-lit areas, and to be sure the vehicle is left locked. Valuables, such as jewelry and purses should be left in locked vehicles or at home not taken to the parade.
Underage drinking is not allowed, and even for those old enough to drink, there can be more problems than just behind the wheel.
While rules against drunk driving will be enforced, police also reminded everyone that intoxicated people are especially vulnerable to criminals.

James Conlon Extends Contract as LA Opera Music Director through 2018
Plácido Domingo, LA Opera's Eli and Edythe Broad General Director, announced today that James Conlon, the Company's Richard Seaver Music Director, has extended his contract with LA Opera through the end of the 2017/2018 season. "James has had an incredible impact on the artistic quality of LA Opera performances," said Mr. Domingo. "Since his arrival, he has conducted more than half of our mainstage performances, inspiring performers and audiences alike through his extraordinary talents. His vision for the company's future, like mine, is one of great ambition and optimism. We have so many exciting plans for LA Opera's seasons to come, and I am greatly looking forward to continuing our work together."
The news was made public today by LA Opera's President and CEO Christopher Koelsch at a special event honoring Mr. Conlon, held in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion's Eva and Marc Stern Grand Hall.
"I am extremely pleased that I will be able to continue on as Music Director of LA Opera through the 2017-2018 season," said Mr. Conlon. "I am very proud of the Company's artistic accomplishments and of its devotion to maintaining uncompromising artistic standards. On a personal level, I enjoy working and living in Los Angeles on a daily basis in a way I could not have imagined prior to 2006. I am grateful to Plácido Domingo and to Board Chairman Marc Stern for the confidence they have shown in me, to Christopher Koelsch for his exceptional collaboration, and most of all, to the musicians of the orchestra, chorus and music staff for making every intense day so satisfying. Six wonderful years have passed in a flash, and I am so happy to know that five more lie ahead."
Mr. Conlon joined LA Opera as Music Director at the beginning of the 2006/07 season. He has conducted a total of 33 different operas at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, including 18 company premieres and two U.S. premieres. To date, he has conducted 190 performances of mainstage LA Opera productions, more than any other conductor in the Company's history. Mr. Conlon has been a driving force behind many of LA Opera's most important initiatives in recent seasons. In 2010, he conducted LA Opera's first presentations of Richard Wagner's complete Der Ring des Nibelungen, which inspired the countywide Ring Festival LA. Throughout 2013 and beyond, he will spearhead Britten 100/LA: A Celebration, in honor of the centenary of English composer Benjamin Britten. Every spring since his arrival, he has conducted popular community outreach productions attended by thousands at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, an endeavor he instituted. He also created LA Opera's celebrated Recovered Voices series, devoted to performing the works of composers suppressed by the Nazi regime. He has conducted four LA Opera productions that have been released on DVD: Kurt Weill's Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny-which won Grammy Awards for Best Classical Album and Best Opera Recording-Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata, Walter Braunfels' The Birds, and a double bill featuring Viktor Ullmann's The Broken Jug and Alexander Zemlinsky's The Dwarf. In 2008, he was the conductor of the Plácido Domingo 40th Anniversary Gala Concert, seen in high-definition screenings in movie theaters throughout the United States. Uniquely among American opera companies, his pre-performance lectures have become an integral part of L.A.'s opera-going experiences, drawing a large and faithful crowd. He has been a regular guest conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and he is actively involved in the city's music education as guest conductor of the orchestras of the Colburn School of Music (the city's leading conservatory), the University of Southern California and UCLA where he is a Regents' Lecturer this season.

Foster was elected Chairman of the Board of Regents in August 2013, amidst considerable controversy surrounding the University of Texas system.[3] This resulted in large part from the Wallace Hall impeachment effort and attendant revelations. Even prior to this, however, a years-long power struggle stemming from near-constant policy disagreements between the Board of Regents and university president Bill Powers had marred the university's operations. System Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa conceded that relations between Powers and the regents had been "strained."[4][5]
Alluding to these issues, Foster said at the time his election, "I'm committed to trying to move this system forward and past the distractions of the past."[3]
Foster was raised in Lovington, New Mexico.[6] He earned his Bachelor's degree in accounting from Baylor University in 1979.[1][7]
After working a series of finance jobs in the oil refining industry, Foster founded Western Refining in 1997.[7][6][8] By 2006, the company was the fourth-largest publicly traded independent oil refinery in the nation.[7][6][9] Owing to the success of his company, in 2007 Foster was ranked number 261 on the Forbes 400 list of wealthy individuals. At the time, his reported net worth was $1.9 billion. Foster's net worth as of September 2013 stood at $1.1 billion.[8]
Foster has served on the El Paso Chamber of Commerce, the Texas Economic Development Corporation, the Hanmaker School of Business at Baylor Advisor Board and the Executive Committee of the Paso del Norte organization.[1] As of September 2013, he was chairman of the El Paso Regional Economic Development Corporation.[1] He has also served on the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.[1]
Foster began serving on the Baylor University Board of Regents in July 2013. He resigned his seat on the Baylor board after he was appointed Chairman of the U.T. board.[10][11]
In June 2013, Foster donated $35 million to Baylor University. Previously, Foster gave $50 million to Texas Tech University for a medical school.[12] Foster also donated $3 million to the University of Texas at El Paso for a basketball facility. The facility bears his name, as well as those of two fellow donors.[2]
Since 2000, Foster has donated more than $417,000 to Rick Perry in campaign and in-kind contributions.[13]
University of Texas investigations
Wallace Hall impeachment trial
- See also: Wallace Hall impeachment trial
In 2011, Regent Wallace Hall began investigating what he perceived to be clout issues within the University of Texas System. Hall investigated the university's forgivable-loans program, admissions policies and preferential treatment to politically-connected individuals.[14] Hall, as an individual citizen, filed a large number of FOIA requests with the University system after his inquiries via his role as a Regent were rebuffed.[15] Hall filed requests of more than 800,000 pages, which some university administrators called an unnecessary burden.[16][17]
An effort was begun in June 2013 to try and impeach Hall from his position as regent. Some legislators are justifying the impeachment on the grounds that Hall did not disclose several lawsuits that he was involved in when he originally completed his Regent background check. Hall updated Governor Rick Perry's office in April 2013 with the full list.[18][19] No unelected official in Texas has ever been successfully impeached or removed from office.[20] Perry's spokesperson said the investigations send a "chilling message" to gubernatorial appointees.[21] Governor of Texas Rick Perry called the investigation "extraordinary political theater." He added: "I think it is sending a horrible message to the public." Perry offered his support for Hall's investigation and records requests, stating, "I just think that at the end, the public's need to know and the public's right to know, questions that Mr. Hall is asking, is totally and absolutely correct."[22]
In October 2013, Foster announced that he would recommend policy changes related to the results of Hall's investigation. In a November 11, 2013 meeting, the Board of Regents voted to ask the Attorney General of Texas for an opinion regarding the release of confidential information for the investigation. The Board waived confidentiality for some records to be turned over to the committee, while seeking input about other pieces of information.[23] Foster asked Attorney General of Texas Greg Abbott whether a House committee can hold University of Texas officials in contempt to the same extent as a district court.[24]
Call for Hall to resign
At a May 15, 2014 Board of Regents meeting, Foster said he believed Hall should resign from his position as Regent. "I implore you to deal with the results of the actions that now have the potential for significant consequence for the UT system," Foster said.[25] Regents Alex Cranberg and Eugene Powell defended Hall's actions while Jeffery Hildebrand, Robert Stillwell and Steven Hicks supported Foster in his call for resignation. No formal vote on Hall was taken by the board.[26]
Foster implied that Hall's resignation would be the best course of action in order to end the distraction that was caused by the impeachment trial.[27] Hall was present at the meeting but did not comment to media.[28]
Hall's attorney Allan Van Fleet sent a letter to Foster indicating that Hall would not resign.[29][30]
Francisco Cigarroa resignation
On February 10, 2014, Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa announced he would resign from his position as Chancellor. He said he felt he had accomplished the goals he set out to do five years earlier, and was prepared to return to medical practice full-time. "Education saves lives on many levels and I thought I could bring value to the UT system with that perspective in mind. Now it's time to return to saving one life at a time," he said.[31] Cigarroa said his resignation had nothing to do with the turmoil and investigations within the University of Texas System. Cigarroa will continue to serve as chancellor until a replacement is found.[32][33] Cigarroa's new position will be as head of pediatric surgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio.[34]
Relationship between Cigarroa and Powers
The Dallas Morning News obtained an email in March 2013 related to Cigarroa's resignation. According to the newspaper, Wallace Hall sent a number of emails to Cigarroa in the weeks before his resignation. The email the newspaper obtained via open records request was sent from Regent chair Foster to Cigarroa. In the email, Foster defended Cigarroa for his work while also praising Hall for his "tenacity as a regent and recommendations to better the university." Foster then implied that Hall had pressured Cigarroa to act, which Foster said he did not agree with.[35] State representative Lyle Larson (R) renewed his call for Hall to resign and Trey Martinez Fischer (D) requested that the committee re-open investigations. Committee co-chair Dan Flynn (R) said no further hearings were planned at the time.[36]
An April 22, 2014 article in the Austin American-Statesman detailed an email exchange between Hall and Foster, in which Hall alleged that University of Texas President Bill Powers threatened Cigarroa prior to his resignation. The three-page email was written on March 19, 2014 as a response to the prior email that Foster sent.[37] In the email, Hall makes an array of accusations regarding the impeachment trial and events within the university system.[38]
- Cigarroa first expressed concern to the Board of Regents about an "inability to work with President Powers" in 2010, which was one year prior to Hall's appointment.
- According to Hall, Cigarroa asked President Powers to resign in Fall 2013. Powers then reportedly offered a range of requirements to retire, which Hall said were "understandably" refused by Chairman Foster.
- Hall alleged that Powers "leveled a threat against the Chancellor," which compromised his ability to work. This threat was reportedly made in front of Pedro Reyes, Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at The University of Texas System.
- Regent Steven Hicks reportedly requested an "up or down vote" on Powers. Hall wrote that Foster had not allowed a vote to occur.
Empower Texans CEO Michael Quinn Sullivan pointed to the email as indication of a cover-up at the university, intended to deter an investigation into alleged clout scandals within the higher education system. Quinn Sullivan wrote: "It appears some legislators have been conspiring with UT Austin officials to get unqualified students admission to the state's flagship university."[39] A spokesman for Powers did not comment on the email.
Powers resignation
In July 2014, Cigarroa asked University of Texas at Austin President Bill Powers to resign or face termination at the July 10 University of Texas Board of Regents meeting. Cigarroa attributed the request to a "breakdown of communication, collegiality, trust and a willingness to work together for the good of the university." Powers at first indicated he would not resign, saying it would "cast the university and our state in a highly unfavorable light."[40][41] However, on July 9, 2014, Cigarroa released a statement that Powers agreed to resign effective June 2015.[42] The Board meeting agenda indicated regents would discuss Powers in an executive session.[43][44] Some legislators on the transparency committee sent a letter requesting that the Board of Regents delay any personnel decisions regarding Powers or other witnesses from the impeachment hearings.[45]
Testimony to transparency committee
At the July 16 hearing, committee members took testimony from additional stakeholders. The hearing took place days after Bill Powers was asked to resign and ultimately agreed to leave the University Presidency effective 2015. Committee members mentioned other options to be explored besides impeachment of Hall. Legislators also indicated they were close to reaching a consensus decision regarding the investigation. While testifying, University of Texas System Board of Regents chair Paul Foster was asked about what he can do to control regent actions. "The state Legislature is not appropriate to intervene in personnel decisions at UT," Foster said.[46][47][48]
As chairman, Foster serves ex officio on all Board standing committees.[49]
Foster is married to Alejandra De La Vega Foster. He has two children from a previous marriage.[8][11]

Have you been watching the nation's economy continue to unravel and wondering where all of that stimulus money went? Another $400 million of the $787 billion approved last February in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act have been accounted for, this time at the federal Energy Department. Why did the Energy Department receive these funds? To support technological research that, in many cases, is so speculative that it apparently cannot attract private venture capital.
A few weeks ago, Energy Secretary Steven Chu surprised a National Public Radio interviewer with an unequivocal endorsement of nuclear power. In answer to a question about his choice of living near a coal-fired or a nuclear-powered plant where electricity is generated, he responded, "If you look at the difference between a coal plant down the river and a nuclear power plant, personally I'd rather be living near a nuclear power plant. There's less of the pollution we know about that is dangerous. Nuclear power has a record in the United States that is very, very good."

Danish Wind Power OverblownWritten by Ed Hiserodt
Two Danish experts in the field of wind energy will be in Washington for the next three days to speak on the subject of wind generated electricity. One would expect they are here to brag on the fact that their country is a leader in the field and that they already satisfy, as President Obama puts it, "20 percent of the electricity through wind power." One would be wrong in such an expectation. They are here to warn us about the dangers of putting our electricity needs in the wind power basket.
With the ink barely dry on the resignation letter of self-proclaimed one-time communist Van Jones as President Obama's Green Jobs Czar, the USA Today is reporting that one area of the "green economy" that is faltering is its virtual mascot: solar power.

Penguins sign Dr. Pepper Snapple Group for Consol Energy Center
Send this to a friend
- Tripp Mickle
- SportsBusiness Journal
The Pittsburgh Penguins plan to bring on the Dr Pepper Snapple Group as the official beverage provider of the new Consol Energy Center.
The team and Dr Pepper Snapple Group agreed to a five-year deal valued in the mid-six figures annually, said sources familiar with the agreement.
The deal, expected to be announced this week, ends a multiyear drought for the Penguins in the beverage category. The team hasn't had an exclusive beverage partner at Mellon Arena for several years.
The Penguins will serve 30 of the Dr Pepper Snapple Group's beverage brands at the Consol Energy Center. Brands such as Dr Pepper, 7-Up, Hawaiian Punch, Sunkist Orange, A&W Root Beer, RC Cola, Snapple teas, Venom Energy Drink and two waters — Fiji Water and Deja Blue — will be available throughout the venue when it opens in approximately 90 days.
The Consol Energy Center is on track for an August opening.
In addition to exclusive pouring rights, the Dr Pepper Snapple Group also gets in-venue signs, menu boards and LED signs.
The full story is in Monday's edition of SportsBusiness Journal.

VANCOUVER — When two B.C. SPCA officers entered the 39th-floor condo of a high-end downtown Vancouver building Wednesday night they found a Doberman pinscher puppy in its crate, surrounded by the stench of its own urine, with its food and water bowls out of reach, according to court documents.
Once let out of her cage, Sade — a one-year-old female puppy — was skittish around people and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals officers said she appeared physically abused, according to the information to obtain a search warrant filed in B.C. Provincial Court and obtained by Postmedia News.
A day earlier, a concerned citizen had called the SPCA's cruelty hotline and sent video footage of Sade and her owner in the elevator at the Private Residences at the Hotel Georgia, according to the search warrant documents.
That video — dated July 27 — showed the owner kicking the dog in the stomach repeatedly and yanking her "leash aggressively over his right shoulder to the point where (the) dog is lifted into the air chocking (sic) the dog," according to the documents. Members of the public were outraged Thursday night after Global News obtained the video and led its main newscast with the footage.
The SPCA's court documents identify the dog's owner as Desmond Hague. Desmond (Des) Hague is the president and CEO of Centerplate Inc. — one of North America's largest sports arena catering companies that serves food at B.C. Place, Denver's Mile High Stadium and San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium.
Hague, who lives in Connecticut and gave the SPCA a number with that area code, could not be reached for comment Friday evening. No charges have been laid against him and none of the allegations has been proven in court.
The B.C. SPCA's chief prevention and enforcement officer, Marcie Moriarty, said her organization has recommended animal cruelty charges against Hague and that Crown counsel is now reviewing the case. She added that Crown could proceed with charges under the criminal or provincial Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, which both could bring jail time or a lifetime ban on pet ownership.
Sade was seized by the SPCA Wednesday night and is now "in good hands" with "no real lasting physical damage," Moriarty said.
Moriarty asked anyone who sees an animal in distress to phone the SPCA hotline at 1-855-622-7722.

Element from Waves is a virtual-analog synthesizer that is designed to combine the sound of a classic subtractive analog synth with the control and convenience benefits of the digital world. It features two oscillators, four LFOs, integrated effects, MIDI learn, a modulation matrix and a 16-step sequencer and arpeggiator.
Element's two analog style oscillators allow you to switch between virtual Voltage-Controlled Oscillation (VCO) and Digitally-Controlled Oscillation (DCO) modes. Utilizing "Virtual Voltage" technology to emulate the more erratic VCO behavior of an analog synthesizer, the VCO mode starts the oscillation at a random phase and also randomizes the pitch slightly within a certain range. This is designed to lend a dirtier, less precise sound typically associated with vintage analog oscillators. The DCO mode, on the other hand, starts the oscillation when triggered by a MIDI note, giving it a tighter and more consistent sound each time it's played.
Continuing in the spirit of combining the strengths of the analog and digital worlds, Element also features two free and two synched low frequency oscillators (LFO). Modeled after a traditional analog LFO, Element's free type LFO modulators have a continuous cycle rate control with a frequency range of 0.1 to 100 Hz. The synched type LFOs, on the other hand, are tempo locked to the BPM of your host application. They also start their oscillation when the MIDI note is triggered, and their timing is set using musical note values. These factors lend to a tighter, more precise sound and feel.
Element's modulation matrix allows you to assign up to six different modulators to each affect different destination parameters. You can patch modulators such as LFOs, aftertouch or the mod wheel on your MIDI controller to a myriad of selectable parameters such as global pitch, delay time, or the pulse width of a particular oscillator just to name a few.
VCF, VCA and Envelope 3 Sections
- Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF) section includes selectable filter slope, cutoff frequency and resonance parameters as well as an ADSR filter envelope control
- Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA) section with ADSR for controlling each note's level envelope from attack to release. Also includes "Punch" button for a more pronounced transient attack
- Envelope 3 Section provides an additional ADSR envelope control that can be assigned to selectable parameter destinations via the modulation matrix
Arpeggiator and Sequencer
- 16-step sequencer with in/out toggle and pitch control which can be set +/-24 semitones on each step
- Tempo can be synched to the host BPM, or set to free time and controlled with a rate knob
- Select Up, Down, Up/Down and Random arpeggio patterns with a range up to 4 octaves in arpeggiator mode
Integrated Effects and EQ Sections
- On-board effects section includes chorus, delay, reverb, distortion and bit crusher
- 4-band fixed frequency graphic equalizer with high pass and low pass filters
- Higher EQ boosts will saturate sound, emulating an analog EQ
Global and Out Section
- Control master output gain, select the clock source and view the current tempo
- Select the amount of simultaneous voices (1-16)
- Select HD mode for higher sound quality; select normal mode to save processing power
MIDI Learn Function
- Map knobs and faders on your MIDI controller to any Element parameter by a simple point and click followed by a knob turn or fader slide
Plugin or Standalone
- Use element as a plugin for music production within your DAW software, or standalone for other applications such as playing live with your laptop

"I entered the field of counseling because of a desire to help those in crisis or who are experiencing difficulties in their lives. I realized I wanted to be a counselor while working at a local community college. I saw students who were struggling academically but were very bright. I came to understand that there are many factors that go into being successful at life. I have always had a helping nature but didnt fully understand why people behaved they way they did. Through my education and experience I can now help people in their personal lives, relationships and careers.

On the quantification of intertest variability in ecotoxicity data with application to species sensitivity distributions
(0 votes)
Ecotoxicological hazard assessment relies on species effect data to estimate quantities such as the predicted no‐effect concentration. While there is a concerted effort to quantify uncertainty in risk assessments, the uncertainty due to intertest variability in species effect measurements is an overlooked component. The European Union Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) guidance document suggests that multiple toxicity records for a given chemical–species combination should be aggregated by the geometric mean. Ignoring this issue or applying unjustified so‐called harmonization methods weakens the defensibility of uncertainty quantification and interpretation about properties of ecological models, for example, the predicted no‐effect concentration. In the present study, the authors propose a simple and broadly theoretically justifiable model to quantify intertest variability and analyze it using Bayesian methods. The value of data in ecotoxicity databases is maximized by utilizing (interval‐)censored data. An exploratory analysis is provided to support the model. The authors conclude, based on a large ecotoxicity database of acute effects to aquatic species, that the standard deviation of intertest variability is approximately a factor (or fold‐difference) of 3. The consequences for decision makers of (not) adjusting for intertest variability are demonstrated. Environ. Toxicol. Chem. © 2012 SETAC

Man Accused of Groping in Grocery Store Arrested
CENTERVILLE -- Police arrested a man they say groped a woman and a teenaged girl inside the Kroger on Main Street in Centerville.
They arrested 25-year-old Kyle Jeckering on Saturday afternoon.
Investigators say he went into the Kroger, walked up to a 60-year-old woman, grabbed her around the waist and then grabbed her rear end.
"I've grown up here I have shopped at this Kroger my entire adult life and I have just not heard of anything like that happening," said Judy Scholle.
But it gets worse.
Investigators say after the woman screamed, he walked to the other side of the store, and did the same thing to a 16-year-old girl who was shopping with her mother.
"I would be mortified and I would want to protect them every way that I could," said Scholle.
Police say the teen's mother used the cart to fight off Jeckering, and he eventually walked away.
"I don't know if she learned that in a class or if that was just an instinct," said Officer John Davis, of the Centerville Police Department.
Instinct or not, Davis says that was the best thing she could have done, and as far as witnesses inside the store, police say they did everything they should have done.
"They kept him in sight, they didn't try to intervene, because obviously in this situation he was armed with a knife," Davis said.
The knife could have been used to hurt someone, but because they let police handle the situation no one got hurt.
But the incident is keeping customers on their toes.
"If you're suspicious, tell someone. It's worth it, it's worth it," said Scholle.
Officers took Jeckering to the hospital for evaluation because he was acting erratically.
He faces two counts of gross sexual imposition and a possible charge of carrying a concealed weapon.
