Visiting our School
We welcome visitors to our campus.
We encourage parents to visit our school and get acquainted with the teacher, principal and school staff. To help us maintain a safe, orderly, uninterrupted learning environment, please call the office in advance to make arrangements for your visit. As a component of our Safe Schools Plan, we also ask that you sign-in at the office and get a visitor's sticker before going to your child's classroom. This helps us know who is in the building in case an emergency should occur. If you are dropping in before school begins, please remember that after 7:30, teachers are responsible for supervising the students who have already arrived.
We encourage parents to occasionally eat lunch with their child. Please send a note a day in advance to the teacher and cafeteria staff. The adult lunch price is $3.00. If you would like a tour of our campus, please call the office in advance to schedule a day and time for the tour. We prefer to conduct tours after the instructional day has ended (2:30 pm), so not to interfere with our academic program. If we know in advance, a member of our office staff will be available to conduct the tour.

I called VM had to speak to a supervisor the regular person tried to give me a runaround with troubleshooting. I had the issues of no signal and phone randomly shutting off. Supervisor said they will send out a replacement sent me back to the other call center rep, who told me that they will only send the phone front I have to keep everything else and would take 3 to 5 days. It was overnighted and was brand new phone in a box with everything in it. So I now have two batteries however if I put the battery from the first one in the phone will randomly shut off. Very interesting. Sorry about rambling first post but love the new phone I now have 3 to 4 bars signal strength
Well, just got my replacement. It was a brand new one. I haven't messed with it much yet, but it seems to charge on chargers my original wouldn't. I haven't tested gps at all. But it looks good so far.
Can some of you report on the common issues on MTs and whether they're still on the newer ones and what the manufacturer date of your new one is?
Ok! Since i got the new one i noticed: Screen flickers and sometimes is white. soft keys dont always work DUST UNDER SCREEN Froyo 2.2 Screen doesnt always notice touch Thats just what i noticed by getting a new phone I havnt used the new one yet besides setting it up, it also has no date under the batt door like my old one which is, 12/11
Well preliminary testing, seems the same as my old triumph (which was great) except it will charge correctly on multiple chargers, and has none of the "dust" under the screen. GPS took just under one minute for the first lock and is almost instant after that (all tries have been within a day of the cold lock, I will test it more in a few days). It has the issues with the back button not always registering. Haven't noticed any other issues. The date on the label under the battery is 12/13. I never had many of the issues that others reported on my old one, it's date was 06/11 and was bought within a couple weeks of release.
My phone dated 06/11 has not one problem. But my wife's, dated 09/11 has a touch screen that almost never wants to work. I'll be calling V.M. today about it.
SEP 27 2011 is on my battery cover. The only issue I have is GPS takes over a minute, sometimes two to lock on to start navigation. This was on stock and CM7 Reloaded. By the way, to people who are getting dust under their screens, I highly suggest the Rocketfish TPU case (and not just because I work at Best Buy ) I have NEVER had dust under my phone, and I believe it's because I threw this on the second I got my phone and the second I got my replacement.
I'm considering myself lucky. My first one had no problems at all except for slow GPS lock which I can deal with as long as it'll get a signal. Everything else is basically perfect. The date on mine is 01June11.
I've had 12 total replacements. Yes, 12. I kept having so many problems. After the seventh one, they told me that they'd send me a class A, which is the best of the classes if you didnt know, but I'd get them in the mail and they would all say class C. Every single one of them had a problem, some better and some worse. I called them once more after sending the problem phones back and they admitted to me they were sending me class C phones, not class A. I asked to talk to a supervisor and he authorized them to FINALLY send me a class A because they kept lying. They finally did. This is my current phone and the only problem it has is the screen flickering. But wow, was it hard to get a working phone. The supervisor told me that he had no idea why they were telling me they'd send a class A, but sent me C instead. Problems with all were ..... - White screen/screen washout and flicker -GPS not locking no matter how long it was left on. -Very bad buzzing in ear piece -Locking up and rebooting -Charger port not working(it was twisted sideways when I got it) -Dead pixels all over the screen. -Camera click when focusing -Extremely bad signal. (I've had enough to notice that some triumphs actually do get better signal than others. And yes, I've looked at dBm and not signal bars. It varied a lot) -Light leaking. I've had mostly all the problems people mentioned. lol. Every phone I had was tested very thoroughly. I tested with stock, Tickers CM7, and MIUI. Some problems went away. However, each phone that had the screen flicker problem stayed with whatever ROM I tested. My current one has that and it bothers me so much. Haven't seen a white screen yet though.
I got a replacement last week. It was not new, unfortunately. It looks more like it fell behind a shelf for the past 6 months. I need some help to confirm a potentially peculiar property of my replacement. Namely, does it have the wrong processor? Well first off to also report, WiFi doesn't work and the touch screen is finicky. I plan on making a call for those soon. I'm running stock now. The replacement phone is reporting it has the Build ID: Version: M7630A-ABBQMAZM-2.0.30 MSM: 2.2B1 Compiled: Apr 29 2011 13:18:23 Released: Dec 08 2010 23:00:00 (Prior to MT release!) MOB_P_REV: 6 Slot Cycle Index: 2 SCM: 00111010 Even simply connecting to QPST Configuration 126.96.36.1996 lists it as "Phone: SURF-MSM7630". The MSM7630 is architecturally identical to the MSM8655 -which is what I thought was supposed to be in this thing-- so is it possible that it's the right chip but incorrectly showing? If you can, please confirm what CPU your phone is reporting. You can't use a front-end software like Z-DeviceTest because I believe is will read what the kernel/system says which could be identical for the two chips. If VM is give out replacements that are MSM7630, I would be peeved, but you know what? I could not find any Motorola or VM official spec sheet specifying a chip. They just all say 1GHz and the 7630 can be clocked to that. Thoughts?
I know for a fact that mine has a msm8655 since I have taken it apart. I can connect it to QPST later to see what QPST says it is though.
Received a replacement phone today...not new. Put my fully charged battery in the replacement phone and the battery was in the red and screen said plug in charger, put the battery back in my old phone and it reads fully charged...Called VM and they are sending a second replacement phone.
Received my 2nd replacement this week. First phone stopped taking a charge, Im assuming the port broke on the charger. The latest phone was a refurb, it came with dust under the screen that I dealt with for a couple months but this weekend, the screen would not turn on, the phone's red light would turn on when charging, but screen would not turn on. I received a brand new phone this time. So now I have extra back cover, battery, charger and 2gb microsd. All this is great, but I just don't have high expectations of this phone lasting more than 6 months and by that time I will be out of the VM warranty period as I purchased my phone within a couple weeks of initial release around July of 2010
Any root / ROM users return their phone? Did you return it after having restored the original ROM / unrooting it? Any problems with VM if you didn't restore it back to stock settings?
After the 8th or so phone, i got tired of having to restore it just for them to send me another broken one, so I stopped. Returned at least 4 phones with cyan on it. They don't care, they just put a new image on them and don't even look at em.
Received 2nd replacement phone..used it for about an hour, it went to sleep and would not wake up unless i removed battery and restarted phone.(sleep of death )....called VM and they can't send me another until they get the original phone back...i'm quickly losing my patience, this will be the third replacement phone in less than a week, seems like i'm trading one problem for another.
Just received a brand spankin new phone, still in box, for my wife's replacement. Sweet.I love the fact that they outsource their customer service, it makes it easier to confuse them. My wife's touch screen wasn't working, so I told them I wanted another phone for her... They proceeded to tell me to pull out the battery... like always. So I stopped them there and told them my wife is mute and that's the reason I am calling on her behalf, and that she uses her phone to text and that is the only way she can communicate, so I need a new one. Bam! 2 minutes later a new phone is in the mail, and in her hands in 2 days. P.S. She isn't mute, I just wanted to pressure them into the outcome that I was headed for anyways. Sorry if I offended anybody, but it worked.
Why wouldn't you have a warranty? Anyone who buys a motorola triumph has a year warranty when they purchase. They released in june? july? I can't remember but it hasn't been a year yet, so of course you have a warranty. And yup, they'll replace it for free. You just gotta call em and tell them you need a replacement sent to you, or to transfer you over to the replacement department. Some might do it right away, others might try to "troubleshoot" your phone. If they say take out the battery, don't really do it and just say you did. It makes the process a whole lot faster.
Has anyone gotten a Triumph with a cracked screen replaced? Not the original one, but a replacement one? I called and they said they wouldn't replace my phone because it was already a replacement phone. Basically said I'd have to buy a new phone. But I've heard of others getting theirs replaced? It's still usable though, it's basically just two lines of cracks that aren't really noticeable with the screen on. My first one never cracked, I had it for 6+ months and dropped it waaay too many times. Also, if I had an entirely separate issue with the phone (say, GPS), could I still replace it even though it has cracks? :/
If you are going to order a replacement make sure it's around Monday because you will receive your replacement faster. I just Called and they are sending me a replacement next week because they're out of stock at the moment but my triumph should be here by next week

Sprouted bread
Sprouted bread | |
Spelt and chia sprouted bread loaf
Type | Bread |
Main ingredients | Whole grains (sprouted) |
Cookbook:Sprouted bread Sprouted bread |
Sprouted bread is a type of bread made from whole grains that have been allowed to sprout, that is, to germinate. There are a few different types of sprouted grain bread. Some are made with added flour, some are made with added gluten, and some, such as Essene bread, are made with very few additional ingredients.
Sprouted breads[edit]
These are breads that contain the whole grain (or kernel, or berry) of various seeds, although only after they have been sprouted. They are different from 'white' bread in as much as 'white' breads are made from ground wheat endosperm (after removal of the bran and germ). Whole grain breads include the bran, germ and endosperm, therefore providing more fiber, and naturally-occurring vitamins and proteins. Sprouted (or germinated) grain breads have roughly the same amount of vitamins per gram.
Some[who?] claim that sprouted grains have 50-1350 times more minerals and vitamins than non-sprouted grains. Although there may be a slight increase per gram of such things, much of this increase follows the increased size of the grain due to the germination process and therefore, by and large, the amounts per gram remain the same.[1] A comparison of nutritional analyses shows that sprouted grains contain about 75% the energy (carbohydrates), slightly higher protein and about 40% of the fat when compared to whole grains.[2][3]
Wheat is not the only grain used for sprouted breads. Grains and legumes such as millet, barley, oat, lentil and soy may also be used. Bread that is made from an array of grains and legumes can provide a complete set of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. There may be a slight increase in trace minerals and nutrients over non-sprouted breads. Other than that, they supply much the same advantages as whole grain breads over refined grain breads, such as lowered risk of coronary heart disease.[4]
Essene bread[edit]
Essene bread is a very primitive form of sprouted grain bread. It is often eaten uncooked, or slightly heated, by proponents of raw foods.[5][6] The Essenes, a Jewish religious group that flourished from the 2nd century BC to the 1st century AD, are credited with the technique and basic recipes for Essene bread,[7] which is made from sprouted wheat and prepared at a low temperature. These two practices ensure the maximum possible vitamin content for this foodstuff.[7] The sprouting also breaks down the lectins and other substances that some individuals may be sensitive or allergic to.
The following is an excerpt from The Essene Gospel of Peace, as translated by Edmund Bordeaux Szekely.
"Let the angels of God prepare your bread. Moisten your wheat, that the angels of water may enter it. Then set it in the air, that the angel of air may embrace it. And leave it from morning to evening beneath the sun, that the angel of sunshine may descend upon it. And the blessings of the three angels will soon make the germ of life to sprout in your wheat. Then crush your grain, and make thin wafers, as did your forefathers when they departed out of Egypt, the house of bondage. Put them back again beneath the sun from its appearing, and when it is risen to its highest in the heavens, turn them over on the other side that they may be embraced there also by the angel of sunshine, and leave them there until the sun sets. For the angels of water, and air and of sunshine fed and ripened the wheat in the field, and they likewise must prepare also your bread. And the same sun which, with the fire of life, made the wheat to grow and ripen, must cook your bread with the same fire. For the fire of the sun gives life to the wheat, to the bread, and to the body. But the fire of death kills the wheat, the bread, and the body. And the living angels of the living God serve only living men. For God is the God of the living, and not the God of the dead.[8]

Santa brings Christmas spirit to Rochester Friday for tree-lighting
ROCHESTER - Santa plans to stop by in the Lilac City this weekend to help get area residents ready for the season.
The jolly old elf will make an appearance at Federal Savings Bank at 17 Wakefield St. as part of a tree-lighting ceremony underwritten by Frisbie Memorial Hospital, which is scheduled for Friday from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. in Central Square.
Mayor T.J. Jean will officially kick off the celebration by lighting Rochester's Christmas tree, but participants can stroll along the festive sidewalks to enjoy various events, including decorating cookies at the Chamber of Commerce office, enjoying dance performances by Studio 109 Dance, Voice & Drama and listening to the Frisbie Memorial Hospital carolers.
To keep everyone warm, Citizens Bank will provide hot chocolate and more cookies.
Meanwhile, families can enjoy the annual breakfast with Santa event, which is scheduled for Saturday from 8 to 11 a.m. in Frisbie's Community Education & Conference Center, which is located at the rear of the hospital along Rochester Hill Road, Route 108.
The event, which draws many families each year, includes a full breakfast buffet, arts and crafts and time for children to visit Santa.

Read NowAmerica's British population has taken to the web to voice its displeasure at news that U.S. candy giant Hershey has successfully blocked our much loved U.K.-produced chocolate from being exported to the land of the free.
Read NowIn the middle of his road trip across America, British filmmaker James Coulson decided he'd seen enough—and applied for U.S. …
Read NowThe red carpet is ready, the paparazzi are prepping their lenses, the stunning dresses are being chosen, and the golden awards are ready to be handed out to the lucky winners. Yes, it's time again for the Toscars ceremony.
No, that's not a misprint. The Oscars are being held on March 2, yes, but a few days before that on Wednesday, February 26th, the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood will host the 7th annual Toscars, an affectionate, spoofy homage that's (mostly) based around this year's Oscar nominations for best movie.
Conceived as an anecdote to the endless waves of movie award ceremonies that take place around this time of year, the tongue-in-cheek Toscars evaluate the work of random teams that are given just three weeks to produce their five-minute parody "take" on one of this year's monster movies.
As if that wasn't potentially tough enough, they have a budget that wouldn't pay for Tom Cruise's belt organizer ($250—excluding food), every element has to be original (even the music), they all have to be PG-rated, and they all have to shoot their movie on the same weekend.
The opposite of big-budget luxury, the movies are done "guerilla" style (on the run and maybe even on the fly) and will see Captain Phillips and the Horn of Africa competing against Pheelaweena, The Fox of Wolf Street, British Hustle, Cavity, Terminate Her, Knobraska, Dallas Biters Club, Shaving Mr. Hanks and 12 Days a Stripper.
The "distinctive" trophies are awarded after celebrity judges including DJ Paul Oakenfold, and actors Jim Piddock, Jennifer Elise Cox and Owain Yeomans get together for a mass debate to decide who is the Best Whactor, Best Whactress, Best Director, Best Supporting Whactor and Supporting Whactress, Best Boss, Best Tunes, Best Scribbler, Best Cutter and Best Production Design (Costumes, Hair, Makeup, Set).
Craig Young, founder of Brits in LA, the social organization behind the idea, also announced that the host is the very talented Alex Newell from Glee, who will be singing an opening number, and that Little Miss Toscar is Tehmina Sunny (currently starring with Kevin Bacon in The Following).
You get the idea by now, and though some of these do sound like pornalikes (and British Hustle does see porn legend Ron Jeremy in his first PG role), because the movies are made by the many actors, directors, producers and behind-the-scenes talent members of Brits in LA, you're actually seeing some seriously good money on the screen. More or less.
As for the favorites to take home the Golden Fist, Young says that it's "neck and neck" as they approach the final deadline day.
"There is buzz circulating around The Fox of Wolf St," he says. "They're running a strong social media campaign. Captain Phillips actually went on the high seas for their parody. Cavity is directed by Star Trek: Voyager actor Tim Russ and uses green screen technology, while for the Dallas Biters Club the lead actor actually put on weight for the role. 12 Years a Stripper cleverly cast the movie without one black person, in case of a backlash, Pheelaweena looks like they've gone very broad Benny Hill, so it could be extremely funny, and Terminate Her has the editor of Beyoncé's "Drunk In Love" video."
Check out the Toscars' Facebook and Twitter pages for nominations, posters, on-set photos, puns, double entendres and other distinctly Brit madness. Aside from the statues there is also a $500 reward for the winning team, but the bragging rights in the pub? Priceless.
Who do you think is going to win this year?

Running Windows programs on Linux with Wine
Garbage Collection
To get rid of a Windows application you have installed on Linux, you might think it would suffice to delete the corresponding directory below .wine/drive_c/Program Files.
Don't do this because Wine will still list the application as installed. Instead, run Wine's own Uninstaller. To launch the uninstaller, press Alt+F2 within openSUSE and type uninstaller. Then, click Run (or Launch), and you should see the window in Figure 8. When you get there, select the software you want to delete and click Uninstall.
Wine is not a panacea, unfortunately, and many major programs still refuse to cooperate. Your best chances are with games (see Figures 9 and 10), but you might need to do without popular accounting packages, CorelDRAW, the latest version of Photoshop, or iTunes, for example.
A better alternative might be to look around for a Linux program that provides similar functionality. In the case of Photoshop, why not try GIMP or Krita? And OpenOffice has long been a more than adequate replacement for Microsoft's Office suite. If you check out the list of packages in your distribution's package manager, you might be surprised at the number of comparable programs, or even programs with superior features, that Linux offers.

DR. ROACH: Age not always to blame
DEAR DR. ROACH: About three years ago, my doctor did not like the feel of my prostate, so he prescribed tamsulosin. After taking it for about four to five months, I was not able to obtain a full erection.
I talked to the doctor about this, and he said that at my age, 67, our body changes and that this medicine has the least amount of side effects for this condition. -- R.E.

Considered a pioneer of Moroccan restaurants in NYC, Café Mogador is a delectable haven at any time of the year. In fact, as the bitter cold sets the tone for a cozy sitting in the restaurant's warm candlelight atmosphere, the spring allows a refreshing meal on the terrace from which the cosmopolitan East Village scenery can be appreciated. Opened in 1983, Café Mogador is a family owned and operated restaurant that throughout the decades became a landmark in the heart of the East Village. 'La Carte' proposes a wide selection of Moroccan and Mediterranean cuisine priding itself with refined daily cooked Tagines and Couscous. Alongside the traditional cuisine, the menu includes elegant dinner specials bringing new flavors and combinations with the seasons' rotation.

27, 2005 Great Falls Tribune Crossroads Correctional Facility Jun 28, 2014 missoulian.com HELENA – A legislative panel
Friday undid an earlier decision to ask the FBI to investigate the privately
operated prison at Shelby, but still voted to support a study and full-scale
audit of the prison that holds 550 state inmates. Members of the Law and
Justice Interim Committee voted unanimously to support a "performance audit"
by the Legislative Audit Division, to take an in-depth look at how the
Crossroads Correctional Center operates and is complying with its state
contract. They also voted to draft a bill ordering a legislative study of
whether the state should continue with the private prison when its contract
comes up for renewal in 2019. Sen. Larry Jent, D-Bozeman, said he doesn't
think privately run, for-profit prisons are a good idea, and that the
Legislature should examine whether to continue with them. Any final decision
on the study must be made by the 2015 Legislature and the audit must be
approved by a separate legislative panel. Friday's votes came two months
after the committee voted to draft a letter to the FBI, asking it to
investigate the prison near Shelby. Sen. Terry Murphy, R-Cardwell, said then
the FBI should examine whether Crossroads may have the same problems
encountered at an Idaho prison run by the same company, Corrections Corp. of
America. The FBI began investigating the Idaho prison this year after reports
of severe understaffing and excessive violence at the facility. CCA, based in
Nashville, Tenn., built and operates Crossroads, which opened southwest of
Shelby in 1999. The state pays the company more than $12 million a year to
operate the Shelby prison. The panel voted earlier Friday to defer a decision
on asking the FBI to investigate, but late in the day decided to forget about
the letter and instead pursue the state-based audit and study of the prison.
At Friday's committee meeting in Helena, several people told the panel that
it should investigate the Shelby prison, alleging it is poorly run and
mistreats inmates. Patricia Swan-Smith, who worked for a year as a counselor
at the facility, said inmates with mental illness were not given proper
treatment or medication, and that inmates are mistreated by staff. "None of
the supervisors addressed valid complaints brought to them," she said. "They
dismissed serious matters with minimal efforts to determine if the complaints
were valid." Lita Pepion, whose son is an inmate at Shelby, said he's been on
the waiting list for two years for certain programs, and "doesn't get
adequate explanations of anything." CCA and local officials said the prison
at Shelby is monitored closely by the state, meets contract requirements and
is accredited by the American Correctional Association. Lane Blair, managing
director of operations for CCA, said if an employee at the prison sees a
problem and isn't getting a response from the local prison manager, the
company allows them to make an anonymous complaint to headquarters. "We
investigate those things and look into them," he told the committee Friday.
"I just stand here to tell you that we're proud of our operation, and we're
willing to answer questions."
A state panel has asked a letter
be drafted to the FBI asking the agency to investigate Montana's privately
run prison in Shelby, with one committee member saying a facility in Idaho
run by the same company is undergoing such a probe. However, a recent state
audit of the Crossroads Correctional Center in Shelby found the prison to
have a near-perfect compliance rating. And an official from the Corrections
Corporation of America, which runs the prison, said what is going on in Idaho
is an isolated manner and no similar allegations have been made regarding
Shelby. Sen. Terry Murphy, R-Cardwell, requested at an April 28 meeting of
the state Legislature's Law and Justice Interim Committee that the FBI be
asked to look at the Shelby prison, saying the Idaho situation is similar to
Montana. "They are exactly the same problems I've heard about here for the
past three years," he said. Murphy said the facility is "vastly understaffed,
even though we are paying for a full staff as called for in the contract." He
accused the prison of "cutting corners on expenses with substandard food" and
said the facility does not provide the medical and dental services that its
contract with the state calls for. A draft of the letter will be brought back
to the committee during its August meeting for discussion. Judy Beck,
spokeswoman for the Montana Department of Corrections, which oversees the
prisons, said she was aware of the committee's request. She said the state
audited Crossroads in November and renewed its contract with the CCA, which
runs the Shelby facility, in December. According to the state's website,
Crossroads houses 564 inmates. In 2013, the state paid CCA $12.9 million to
run the Shelby prison, she said. Apparently, it brings some savings as
according to the 2013 DOC biennial report, it cost about $98 a day for an
inmate at the Montana State Prison in Deer Lodge as opposed to about $77 per
day in Shelby. The Nov. 4-6 audit, according to a Nov. 13 letter from the
DOC, found Crossroads to be compliant with 73 of 74 areas and to have a 98.65
percent compliance rating. The letter did note Crossroads was notified of all
items to be reviewed two weeks prior of the team being on site. A spokesman
for CCA told the Tribune he was puzzled about the panel's request. "I am sort
of at a loss as to why," said Steve Owen, senior director of public affairs
for CCA. "To our knowledge, our government partners are satisfied." "Our
government partners hold us to high standards," he said. Owen added that
Crossroads was a "good corporate citizen" that performs many community
outreach programs. He said what happened in Idaho is "isolated and has no
correlation to the facility in Montana." Owen said some CCA employees in
Idaho decided to "misinform" on some reports. Once the company learned of the
problem it began an investigation. That information was shared with state
officials who in turn asked the FBI to investigate, thinking the agency was
better equipped to handle rather than the state police. "We have fully
cooperated with investigators and will continue to do so until it's
concluded," he said. According to the AP, in 2013, CCA officials admitted
they had "understaffed the prison by thousands of hours in violation of the
state contract. CCA also said employees falsified reports to cover up the
vacancies." An investigation by AP showed CCA sometimes listed guards as
working 48 hours straight to meet minimum staffing requirements. In 2010, the
ACLU sued on behalf of inmates, saying the facility was so violent that
inmates called it "Gladiator School." The ACLU claimed that understaffing
contributed to the high incidents of violence at the prison. According to the
AP story, CCA's contract with Idaho was worth about $29 million a year. In
February, the company agreed to pay Idaho $1 million to settle the
understaffing claims. Murphy, the Montana state senator, said he wondered if
there were similar problems here. At the April 28 meeting, he said the Law
and Justice Interim Committee has asked for an investigation before and had
made attempts to get the Legislative Audit Committee to look at the facility.
"It really didn't turn out to be an investigation, and some of us were pretty
disappointed in how they dealt with it," he said. In a telephone interview
Saturday, Murphy said he had met recently with Crossroads officials. He said
he hoped an audit would ease his concerns. "If everything is fine, there is
nobody who'd be happier about it than me, but I'd just like to know" he said.
Owen said it is not unusual for privately run prisons to be criticized. "In
the best of circumstances, inmates are not happy about their confinement," he
said. "It's an inherent part of corrections." From the audit According to the
Nov. 13 letter, the prison was asked, among other things, to: • Hire someone to be solely
responsible for grievance response and investigation; • Give inmates easier and more
confidential access to paper grievance requests; • Consider a duress button in the
dental area to provide another means of emergency communication if needed; • Remain aware of vacancies as two
officer vacancies extended beyond the 90-day time frame. The letter states
the items will not directly impact facility licensure and inspectors said
they were aware of new employees starting Nov. 4. The issue of staffing has come up
before. In June 2012, Crossroads Warden Martin Frink told lawmakers that the
starting wage for correctional officers at Shelby was $12.05 an hour. At that
time, officers at Montana State Prison received $12.57 an hour. Frink was
told by lawmakers that the prison should offer a higher starting wage. August

22, 2002 Two Rivers
Detention Center HARDIN — A Montana town that once
offered to take in suspected terrorists from Guantanamo Bay out of
desperation to fill an empty $27 million jail has finally started to fill its
cells with American Indian inmates from across the Northern Plains. The Two
Rivers Regional Detention Facility in Hardin was built in 2007 on hopes it
would boost an economically depressed area of southeast Montana bordering the
Crow Indian Reservation. But it suffered a series of failures after Montana
prison officials said the jail wouldn't suit their needs. Hardin officials in
2009 sought unsuccessfully to take in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detainees. They
later partnered with a California man, Michael Hilton, who promised to turn
the jail into a paramilitary training site until his criminal background was
revealed by The Associated Press and other news organizations. Now local
officials said they at last have found a legitimate and reliable operator for
the 464-bed jail in Emerald Correctional Management, a Louisiana-based
private corrections company. Warden Ken Keller says Two Rivers has taken in
almost 60 inmates in recent weeks from American Indian reservations in
Montana, Wyoming and North Dakota. Most are serving time for alcohol or drug
crimes and must go through an intensive rehabilitation program in Hardin,
Keller said. As Keller showed an Associated Press reporter around the jail
this week, guards wearing patches with Emerald's green logo patrolled the
halls. Inmates clothed in orange were locked into 8- and 24-bed dorm rooms
watching television, playing board games and sleeping as they waited for
their next therapy session to begin. Others were seen working in the kitchen
and being processed in the jail's intake area. "Everybody always said it
wasn't going to happen," Keller said. "It's happening." Yet
the latest turn for Two Rivers has raised a new concern for at least one
tribal leader: Huge distances separate Hardin from the reservations and will
make it difficult for relatives of inmates to visit. After the jail's prior
setbacks, Emerald representatives cast a wide net in the search for inmates.
They delivered what Hardin had long sought: A contract with a government
agency, in this case the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs, which should provide
a steady flow of inmates potentially for years to come. For now, all the
revenue the jail brings in will go to Emerald and to pay off the $27 million
in bonds that paid for its construction. Eventually, Hardin stands to receive
50 cents per inmate, per day, said Jon Matovich, who chairs Hardin's economic
development authority, which owns the jail. Matovich and other officials said
that doesn't account for the 50 jobs created so far with the jail's belated
opening. That could reach 150 workers if the jail ever reaches full capacity,
according to Emerald. "All the Gitmo and Michael Hilton stuff was kind
of a black eye in the way those things turned out, but it's all good
now," Matovich said. The BIA is paying Emerald about $70 per inmate per
day, said agency spokeswoman Nedra Darling. The drug and alcohol treatment
provided by the company is unavailable in BIA-managed jails, Darling said,
and inmates are sent to Hardin only with the agreement of tribal leadership.
However, Blackfeet Nation Chairman Harry Barnes said the BIA gave tribal
officials only three days' notice before relocating inmates from an outdated
jail on his northwestern Montana reservation to Hardin, 380 miles away.
"They should have consulted us beforehand," Barnes said. "They
showed up on a Friday and said they were going to tear the jail down Monday.
... We were only in a position to listen, but we had some concerns with
people going all the way to Hardin." Barnes said that could present a
hardship for family members who want to visit inmates but can't afford to
make the journey. Another source of inmates, the Spirit Lake Tribe of central
North Dakota, is located more than 550 miles from Hardin in central North
Dakota, an eight-hour trip by car. Darling did not immediately respond to
questions about the BIA's discussions with the Blackfeet about the jail.
Beyond its agreement with the BIA, Emerald has a separate deal with North
Dakota's Three Affiliated Tribes. Drug and alcohol addiction has spiked in
recent years on the reservation near Newtown, N.D., fueled by the easy money
being generated by an oil boom in the surrounding Bakken region. "We are
in the middle of a heroin and meth epidemic. It's killing everybody,
including our kids," said Bruce Gillette, who directs a drug treatment
program for the Three Affiliated Tribes. "We've sent people to other
treatment facilities, but there are no locked doors, so they can literally
walk out. ... From where I'm at, only God could have sent those guys from
Hardin to me."
HARDIN - A $27-million, 92,273
square foot building on 40 acres has been empty for seven years, but now the
Two Rivers Detention Facility is operating with its first inmate. A woman
arrived as the first inmate at Two Rivers on Aug. 21. "That's a big step
for this facility," said Kenneth Keller, warden at the facility who
worked with the Wyoming Department of Corrections for 26 years. He says
prisoners in Hardin will be medium to minimum security inmates. "You
won't be seeing a lot violent offenders or long term," Keller said.
"The longest term that we would house would be two years." Two
Rivers will do more than house prisoners. The staff will rehabilitate
inmates, so they can eventually be productive citizens. "It doesn't do
an individual any good to be thrown in jail and just be housed," Keller
said. "They get nothing out of it. They're bored. There's nothing there
for them. They really just kind of harden up and keep to themselves."
The prison staff will run a modified intensive treatment program. It's the
same one Emerald Correctional Management uses its other jails for people with
drug and alcohol addictions. "Ninety-five percent of these individuals
are going to get out from where they're incarcerated," Keller said.
"They are going to be your neighbor, my neighbor - somebody's neighbor.
So it's important that we use every tool we can, provide them with everything
we can to fill their toolbox up. So when they get out, they will be good
neighbors." Keller expects more prisoners to come to Hardin. "Our
intent is to run at as full capacity as we can," Keller said. The first
inmate comes from the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara affiliated tribes in
Newtown, North Dakota. Keller says the Bureau of Indian Affairs has also
agreed to house inmates at Two Rivers.
A private corrections company from
Louisiana is starting to train guards - but still doesn't have any inmates -
for a jail in Hardin that has sat vacant since it was built in 2007, company
and town officials said Monday. Steve Afeman with Emerald Correctional
Management said a warden and other personnel have been hired and about 30
guards will be training through the week at the 464-bed Two Rivers Detention
Facility. The company intends to solicit inmates from American Indian tribes,
counties and the U.S. Marshals Service, Afeman said. No agreements have been
reached, and Chief Deputy Rod Ostermiller with the Marshals Service in
Billings said he is not aware of any discussions between his agency and the
Lafayette, Louisiana-based company. The $27 million jail rose to notoriety in
recent years after its backers failed to get any contracts for inmates,
prompting desperate Hardin officials at one to point to offer to take in
suspected terrorists held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. A California man later
duped officials with a grandiose plan to turn the jail into a military
training camp. The jail is owned by Hardin's economic development agency, Two
Rivers Authority. Emerald signed an operating contract with the authority on
May 6 to run the jail, Two Rivers Chairman Jon Matovich said. Two Rivers
would receive 50 cents per day for every inmate under the terms of the deal,
Matovich said. "Everything is signed, the ball's in (Emerald's) court
and they're doing a great job," Matovich said. "Anything that goes
on at the facility from now on is Emerald's stuff. As soon as they get their
staff trained and get things rolling, I'm sure they will have some
inmates." Afeman said representatives of Emerald planned to meet with
leaders of tribes from Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas beginning Wednesday
to gauge their interest. Afeman said in April that the company had reached a
memorandum of understanding with the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs in which
the agency endorsed the company's plans. But on Monday, Afeman said there was
no agreement with the federal agency and that Emerald was working directly
with the tribes. A former employee of the Wyoming Department of Corrections
was hired as warden, Afeman said. Kenneth Keller spent three decades with the
state agency and in 2008 was appointed warden of the Wyoming Honor Farm, a
minimum security facility in Riverton for inmates preparing to re-enter
society. pril

29, 2008 Casper Star-Journal A disputed, privately run jail near Hardin,
Mont., was dealt another blow this month: Wyoming officials have decided not
to house felons at the facility, saying parts of the lockdown aren't set up
to safely hold their inmates. The decision came in a May 20 letter from Steve
Lindly, deputy director of the Wyoming Department of Corrections, to Peter
Argeropulos, vice president of marketing for Community Education Centers, the
for-profit New Jersey company contracted to run Hardin's Two Rivers Detention
Center. Lindly wrote that Wyoming prefers "non-dorm cell housing"
for its medium-security inmates. Dorm housing is where many inmates are
housed in a single room with multiple beds. Most of the 464 beds at the Two
Rivers jail are "dorm style." The jail, which was built between
2006 and 2007 by the economic development arm of the city of Hardin,
envisions some 288 inmates housed in 12 large cells, each containing 24 beds,
according to information from Two Rivers. Lindly wrote that he had other
concerns about whether inmates could use electronics like television sets in
the Two Rivers cells. Plus, he said, "we found recreation opportunities
to be limited." "It doesn't look like the physical structure of the
Hardin facility will meet our needs," he wrote. The decision is the
latest setback for the jail, which was built with no state or local contracts
in place as a way of bringing up to 100 guard and other prison-type jobs to
Hardin. Hardin issued $27 million in revenue bonds to build the jail. The
city missed its May 1 bond payment, and the facility is now in default. The
center was completed last year, but has never opened for want of inmates.
Montana's Department of Corrections, along with the U.S. Marshals Service,
said last fall they didn't need the jail space. Hardin has no police force of
its own, and anyone arrested in the town is housed in the Big Horn (Mont.)
County Jail, which has expressed no interest in Two Rivers. Jail backers then
turned to out-of-state inmates, potentially a few hundred from Wyoming.
Responding to an inquiry from the Hardin city attorney, Montana's attorney
general concluded late last year that jails like Two Rivers cannot take
out-of-state inmates. The city appealed that decision, which is now in the
hands of a Helena judge. Greg Smith, executive director of the Two Rivers
Authority, Hardin's economic development agency that built the jail, said he
wasn't too concerned with Wyoming's decision. So far, Smith said, that's just
one state out of 48 that has found problem with the jail's design.
"We've been on a long road, and this is just a little pebble in it,"
he said. Melinda Brazzale, a Wyoming Department of Corrections spokeswoman,
said the legal dispute surrounding Two Rivers played only a bit part in the
state's decision not to pursue a contract with the jail. Wyoming has kept
some inmates out of state since 1997, she said. The state is now housing
inmates in Oklahoma and Virginia while crews build a new 700-bed prison in
Torrington intended to eliminate the need for out-of-state prisons. That
prison is expected to open in 2010, she said. Last fall, Brazzale said, several
people from Two Rivers contacted the state about housing some Wyoming felons
at Hardin. Wyoming officials contacted Montana's correctional leaders, who
told them about the jail's legal problems. At that point, Brazzale said,
Wyoming quit pursuing Two Rivers. Wyoming never sent a team of inspectors to
view the jail, she said, which is a necessary first step before the state
would consider sending inmates to any facility. About a month ago, Gov. Brian
Schweitzer contacted Wyoming's Gov. Dave Freudenthal, and invited him to view
the Hardin jail, Brazzale said. Only then did Wyoming correctional officials
see the facility and conclude it wouldn't work to house their felons.
Schweitzer said he has contacted the governors of all Montana's neighboring
states to tell them about Two Rivers. "I do my level best to help
everybody in Montana," he said. Schweitzer said the jail is in a
difficult spot. Regardless of the legal issues surrounding it, the facility
is built more like a jail than a prison. Agencies needing prison space, which
is designed to safely house felons for longer periods, might not want the
big, open dorms Two Rivers has to offer, he said. "The people who
designed this thing in Texas, they sold this concept to people who are no
longer even in Hardin," Schweitzer said, referring to the questions
about why officials decided to build a jail of this type. Bob Anez, a
spokesman for the Montana Department of Corrections, said no one from his
agency has inspected Two Rivers to see if the issues Wyoming cited might pose
similar problems for Montana -- should the state ever consider housing
