The Scioto County Fair Board has reached an agreement to bring Lucasville Trade Days to the fairgrounds this April.
"It is our intent to put on an event there, which we will call Lucasville Trade Days, on April 19 and 20," said Jim Wirth, spokesman for Lucasville Trade Days. "This is a week later than it used to be and this way, we will not clash with those folks (Southern Ohio Poultry Association) that used to be there and have moved north."
He said the event does fall on Easter weekend, which will present a challenge.
"We don't want to try to go after that group (Southern Ohio Poultry Association) and we certainly do not wish them ill. I have been coming down there (Scioto County Fairgrounds) and participating in their show (Swap Days) as a vendor for ten years," Wirth said. "I just felt like it (Scioto County Fairgrounds) is a fabulous place for an event, not just because it was a nice facility, also because the people of the area like this type of event."
Wirth said the Swap Days decided to leave the Scioto County Fairgrounds, he began talking to other vendors about the possibility of bringing a similar event to the fairgrounds.
"Every time I would ask someone, if somebody were to step in and put this on would you participate. The first thing they said to me was, 'if you are going to do this I want my same spaces," Wirth said.
Wirth said it was after those conversations he decided pursue the idea with the Scioto County Fair Board.
Wirth also runs the Cars and Parts Springfield Swap Meet and Car Show in Springfield, Ohio.
"We put on three shows (in Springfield) and we think our Spring show, is the largest automotive event in the central United States with roughly 30,000 in attendance over a three day event," Wirth said.
He said they are going to try to bring the experience of the Springfield show to Lucasville.
"We started talking to them (Scioto County Fair Board) two weeks ago and this event happens in five weeks," Wirth said. "I have never in my professional career attempted to begin something and produce it in five weeks. We're going to put our hearts into this thing, you will see an aggressive, energetic effort on our behalf to try to make this work."
Wirth said he is already getting phone calls from interested vendors.
"All we need is a little patience's and understanding from a lot of folks and support, we need people to come out and visit. All we have to do is succeed on our first show and we'll be able to put on a legacy that will stay there," Wirth said.
For more information about the event call 937-728-6643.

Talk about a lot of performance for not a lot of money! Take one lightweight tube-frame chassis, wrap it in high-quality Factory Five fiberglass that emulates the most famous and curvaceous roadster of all time and then plant a modern, professionally built Ford small block up front for whiplash-inducing acceleration. Priced for less than the cost of building one yourself, this exceptionally well-built Cobra roadster is the kind of car that you can keep, drive and enjoy for years to come. In fact it's so well done that it took home a Best of Show award at the 2009 Spring Auto Fair at Charlotte Motor Speedway. And when you factor in the added convenience of firing it up and driving it right out of our RK Motors Charlotte showroom instead of prolonging your gratification over a 2-5 year build time, it becomes the ultimate car for any enthusiast who wants a complete, road ready package!
Factory Five Racing has long been applauded for their great fiberglass work, and this smooth Cobra roadster is no exception! It's virtually flawless body displays no obvious signs of waves or ripples anywhere; and the typically tight panel gaps that have become a company hallmark present well and function great. When the owner took delivery of the shell, he wanted to create a car that he could keep forever. So the five year, labor intensive build began with one month of hand sanding the bottom of the body and applying a thick coat of Herculiner weather coating. Next, a high quality top was ordered, fitted with custom side windows and flipped and sanded with the same exacting attention to detail. After months of fine tuning, the canvas was finally smooth and tight enough for a trophy winning coat of Charcoal Gray Chrysler urethane. And since that first line of paint was laid down, it has never been in the rain, never been wet and is always detailed with a buffer and wax instead of a bucket and wash mitt. It isn't often that you find a memorable Cobra which isn't covered is some seriously trendy paint. But this Factory Five roadster, with its race-bred personality, serious mechanical hardware and excellent attention to detail, is so natural and so well done that it gets serious attention, draws long stares and gains big fans everywhere it goes!
Naturally, that labor intensive build included getting every one of the cars all-important details exactly right. And the result is a well-planned roadster which turns the would-be liabilities of a custom piece into the form enhancing assets of a top notch show car. Up front, like-new tri-bar headlights hang above Lucas-style finned parking lights which flank traditional stainless Cobra bumperettes and black mesh grilles. At the top of the car, an extended fiberglass hood scoop rides in front of a new chrome trimmed windshield that is equipped with both tinted visors and clear wind wings; and traditional locking hood latches perfectly complement two-speed stainless wipers, a stainless driver's side roll bar and a traditional billet fuel filler. At the sides of the car, great looking ceramic coated side pipes sit below finned aluminum air extractors, red, blue and silver "Powered By Ford" emblems and curvaceous rear fenders that are protected from chips by fresh paint protection film. And at the back of the car, clear round tail lights flank a second set of stainless bumperettes, a pristine chrome tag light and a locking chrome trunk handle.
Not only does this awesome Cobra look great, it's guaranteed to perform great thanks to a modern 375 horsepower 5.0 liter Ford V8 that was freshly rebuilt by Blazer Racing in Huntersville, North Carolina just over 1,000 miles ago. At the top of that smooth engine, air flows from a reusable K&N air filter, which is complete with a show polished air tube, into a 70 mm BBK throttle body that's bolted to a billet spacer and an impressive GT40 tubular intake manifold. Below that manifold, stainless fuel lines carry hot burning 93 octane from a high output Ford Racing fuel pump to an Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator which supplies both a liquid filled Marshall fuel pressure gauge and 24 lb. Ford Racing injectors. Fire is provided by a Ford Racing high output coil which is connected to an MSD 6AL ignition system, an Accel billet electronic distributor and blue Ford Racing wires. Cooling comes courtesy of a high flow aluminum radiator which sends water past a high performance Black Magic adjustable electric fan to corrugated hoses and a Street and Performance water pump. And the engine breathes well thanks to a slick pair of ceramic coated Ford Racing shorty headers. At the back of the engine, a Ford AL-9 computer, which is actually programmed for a performance chip that hasn't been installed post rebuild, seamlessly communicates with a Ford Racing wiring harness to ensure the cars electronic fuel injection works flawlessly. At the front of the engine, a fresh serpentine belt spins polished pulleys, along with a chrome AC compressor and a chrome Street and Performance alternator. And at the bottom of the engine, a high torque mini starter spins a tough Street and Performance crankshaft. Aesthetically, the modern small block looks right at home between the body-matched fenders, body-matched hood and the polished aluminum firewall. And well-planned details like a bright blue overflow tank with a billet cap, great looking polished Ford Racing valve covers with a Ford Racing breather and liquid smooth gas hood supports are both functional and appealing.
One of the best things about this high quality, expertly built Cobra is its ability to run circles around almost anything at the track. Take one look under the car and you'll find a rigid four inch engineered round tube frame and a fully sorted modern double A-arm front a four link rear suspension are ready to take on the toughest curves you can find. Behind the engine, a rock solid 5-speed manual transmission which, like the motor, was rebuilt just over 1,000 miles ago, sends power to a proven 8.8 inch Ford 3.55 rear end which is stuffed with a stout Detroit Locker differential and new Richmond ring and pinion gears. At the front of the car, a billet Mustang power steering rack, that's complete with braided hoses, utilizes tubular upper control arms and high performance coil over shocks to make the most of the small blocks power. And at the corners of the car, manual front disc and rear drum brakes provide consistent, sure-footed stops that are all day long and all day strong. Power flows to the ground through classic 15 inch American Racing Torq Thrust Ds that are outfitted with billet center caps, no-leak valve stems and fresh 255/60 BF Goodrich Radial T/As. And with its exceptionally high power to weight ratio, completely modern components and virtually unbreakable frame, this quick little roadster would likely have no problem out handling any traditional Cobra in the twisties!
This Cobra roadster was built to keep. And even though its cockpit still honors the purist nature of a no-nonsense track shredding sports car, many custom touches, which include a powerful Vintage Air climate control system, ratchet up both its appeal and street capability. At the center of the car, racing inspired black leather Corbeau seats, which look and feel as good as new, feature a lowered ride height, air adjustable lumbar and headrest support and high quality four point safety belts. At the sides of those seats, fully finished fiberglass doors have been fitted with traditional chrome handles and leather straps. Between those seats, a leather wrapped center hub hangs a billet control panel for the cars heat and air conditioning and a passenger's side convenience outlet in front of a driver's side master cut off switch and a custom chrome easy reach shifter that's wrapped in a graphite leather boot. And in front of those seats, a water decaled dash, which has been moved closer to the firewall, props a trick rear view mirror center rod and brace above a full array of Classic Instruments gauges, which include a correct reverse rotation speedometer, billet accessory knobs, indicators for the cars high beams and turn signals, and hidden buttons which both dim the dash lighting and reset the continuous motion clock. In front of the driver, a leather wrapped, billet MOMO steering wheel sits between a reproduction AC horn button, a billet ignition switch and a Russ Thompson billet turn signal stalk which is complete with an integrated horn button. Below the driver, new black carpet anchors billet AC pedals which hang beneath new, heat shrink wrapped wiring and a completely accessible fuse panel. And behind the driver, the cars fully finished trunk hangs a chrome fire extinguisher next to an under floor storage compartment which includes jump posts for the cars frame mounted battery and a remote control Boss Marine moisture proof CD player which thunders through high quality Polk Audio speakers.
Included with the sale of this top notch Cobra is a photo album which documents the build from the time the owner took possession of the body until the car was complete, an original Factory Five assembly manual, paperwork for the cars wiring, paperwork for the custom hardtop, receipts, instruction manuals and general information about the cars components, and a box of miscellaneous parts which includes a complete cockpit tonneau cover and a fitted, lockable California Car Cover.
With its high quality build, killer small block engine and fully sorted track ready suspension hardware, this bad ass Cobra provides an unmatched driving experience that's wrapped in spectacular good looks. It's the latest in a string of high quality, high profile Cobras we've offered which look just as good as the real deal and perform much better thanks to modern technology and 21st century build techniques. If you've been patiently waiting for a complete Cobra that you can buy, enjoy for years and hang onto forever, your search is over!

It's been a challenging season for the Pamlico Hurricanes and the Jones Senior Trojans.
On the positive side, both football teams still have postseason aspirations.
A win on Friday would go a long way in helping it qualify for the playoffs.
Pamlico (1-7, 1-2 Coastal Plains) sits in the fourth and final playoff spot with two games remaining. Jones Senior (0-8, 0-3) is in sixth place with two winnable conference games on the schedule.
The Hurricanes and Trojans will square off at on Friday in
"That's been our whole thought all week," said Pamlico coach Michael Twichell. "If we win this one, we have a shot to get in (the playoffs). That's been our motivation."
A win for Pamlico, and they will secure that fourth spot — ahead of
If Jones Senior wins, it plays East
"We are not concentrating on the playoffs right now," Jones Senior coach John Davis said. "I'm just trying to get through this season without getting anybody hurt."
The Hurricanes and Trojans are extremely young, and have been decimated by injuries.
Pamlico has just two seniors — offensive/defensive lineman George Fenderson and linebacker/wide receiver Cody Bennett. It has a combined four freshmen and sophomores starting on defense.
Jones Senior, the defending 1-A Eastern Regional Champs, lost 10 seniors from last season.
The Trojans are starting six or so freshmen on offense and defense.
"It's tough in
Twichell agreed that it's difficult to rebuild at a 1-A school. Pamlico has won just two games since its 6-5 season in 2010.
"That's 1-A football," he said. "You have grades where you have a lot of good athletes, or you could have two or three good athletes. The 3-A and 4-A schools, they can weather that storm a little more than a 1-A school can.
"You will see a team make a run for two or three years, then they will have a down year. We have two seniors and Jones doesn't have that many either. It's tough because you are lacking numbers."
Jones Senior has won the last six meetings over Pamlico. The Hurricanes' last victory over the Trojans was a 23-14 win in 2005.
Jones Senior beat Pamlico, 42-0, last season.
"It's been a rivalry, a fun 1-A rivalry. It's been lopsided. In the early 2000s, we dominated the rivalry.
"The past five of six years, they've dominated. It's a school that's close to us that is very comparable, and that makes it a good rivalry."
Pamlico suffered a 36-14 defeat to Lejeune last week. Quarterback NaQuan Gibbs ran for 102 yards and scored two touchdowns.
Running back Jamal Coffee has added a punch out of the backfield. He caught three passes for 41 yards against Lejeune.
"They are going to be the difference on offense," Twichell said. "If the offensive line plays well, those two guys should have a good night. They are our playmakers."
Pamlico's offense is putting up 12.3 points per game, while the defense is yielding 27.9 points.
Fields scored on a 54-yard run and threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Carlos Irving in last week's 27-13 loss to
Friday is Senior Night for Jones Senior. Darvoris Batts, who is out for the year with an injury, Miguel Foy, Marques Bryant, Craig Cobb, Will Price and Parrish Bryant will be recognized.

Hermannhof Winery
330 E. First St.
Hermann Missouri 65401United States
(800) 393-0100
Editor's Review
Hermannhof has the complete winery package: history, great wines and first-class facilities.
Started in the 1840s, Hermannhof Winery has several buildings -- including its 10 cellars and the brick winery -- on the National Register of Historic Places. One of the cellars has hand-cut stone archways, a vaulted ceiling and a natural spring that runs through a channel hewn into the flagstone floor, which creates the humidity for optimum wine aging. Its signature -- and best-selling -- wine is White Lady of Starkenburg, a semidry white named after a nearby Catholic shrine. The old winery building is picture-perfect and includes tasting rooms; a retail sales area; a deli where cheeses, sausages, soups, etc. are sold; and the weinstube, a small indoor dining room with a fireplace and framed photos of the old winemakers and other memorabilia. The DierbergStar LaneThree Saints tasting room is dedicated to the winery's California vintages.Adjacent to the winery is the recently built Hofgarten, an outdoor event space designed to resemble a European public square. In warm weather, the Hofgarten's courtyard catches cooling breezes from neighboring Frene Creek, and guests can use the bridge -- its railing is appropriately embellished with bunches of grapes -- over the pretty creek to walk from the winery to the Hofgarten.

Comments about Kenda Happy Medium Pro 26" Tire:
Fast and easy pedaling while on paved and dirt roads alike. The price is a little up there but you get what you pay for. I will be buying these again for my commuter no question.
Comments about Kenda Happy Medium Pro 26" Tire:
I've been running a Happy Medium for my back tire on my hardtail for about 4 months. Excellent traction and fast rolling. Good grip on hard pack, roots and rocks. Only down side is when things get a little wet, traction is not so good on wet roots.
Comments about Kenda Happy Medium Pro 26" Tire:
I started with Small block eight on front, not enough bite in the turns, I really like the Specialized "Captain" a little too much wieght. the "Happy Medium" is truely that.
Best Uses
Comments about Kenda Happy Medium Pro 26" Tire:
The Positives:
I ride mostly around Lake tahoe and the sierra foot hills with its low rolling resistance and aggressive side nobs this tire excels on almost any trail in the area. I'm a big guy (200lb)and tend to run this tire with a lower than recommended pressure and have never Had a pinch flat.
The Negative:
It will feel a little loose going into corners until you get it over enough then it just grabs which can take a little getting used to. Since it has a semi-slick middle tread quick/ hard straight line braking can result in a skid particularly on steep sections. In the mud it's just slippery.

It was a chance to give honor where honor is due, organizers said.
The 8th annual Minority Enterprise Development Day held at the Jacksonville Commons Recreation Center Friday morning recognized two area residents: one as entrepreneur of the year and one for advocating for minority-owned businesses.
Adrienne James, who owns M&S Sanitation with her husband, was honored as a "powerful, amazing woman" who deserved to be named Minority Entrepreneur of the Year.
According to information provided by the Jacksonville-Onslow Chamber of Commerce, which hosted the event, James was selected by the president of the Chamber of Commerce to attend the Jacksonville-Onslow Leadership Class and Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, both of which she completed. She organized a fundraiser for the American Red Cross after a tornado struck the area in 2011, and she has volunteered as a Guardian Ad Litem and with the Onslow Women's Shelter.
And she didn't have a clue that she was being honored at the event.
James said she was shocked, humbled, appreciative and speechless.
"I never thought," she started. "It wasn't even in my mind."
James said that while some consider being a sanitation worker dirty work, "somebody's got to do it."
"If we didn't have sanitation workers, we'd all be living in a polluted environment," she said.
James wasn't the only one honored, though she was the only one to do a dance with her award after receiving it.
Billy Sewell, owner of Platinum Corral, said being recognized as the Linda L. Richardson Business Advocate of the Year was as much of a surprise as it could be when his wife Julie told him he needed to be present at the event.
"It's an honor to receive an award that represents the core of Onslow County," he said.
The award is named after Linda Richardson who joined the chamber in 2006 and implemented Minority Enterprise Development Day and the Minority Business Roundtable. She joined the chamber's staff in 2008 and expanded services offered by the chamber that have a positive impact on the minority business community, according to information from the chamber.
Like Richardson, Sewell is a strong supporter of the chamber's effort in the minority business community and he donates his time, his staff's time and his services to make sure the day is success.
Sewell has served on the N.C. Economic Development Board and was chairman of Onslow County Economic Development. He's also received the North Carolina Restauranteur Award.
Sewell told the crowd there were days he wished he was still a small business owner but the owner of 28 stores said that 60 percent of his staff and 60 percent of his customers are minorities while 20 percent of the Golden Corral franchise system is minorities. As a result, he said, it's important to advocate for minority business owners.
"It's very important for us to be sure to advocate for minorities, to be advocates," he said.
The recipients were given out based on business accomplishments, chamber of commerce involvement, community service, and other memberships, achievements and awards.
But it wasn't all about awards.
For 35 area businesses, the day was about networking.
Angela Widerman, a relationship banker with BB&T on Western Boulevard, said that the bank was present at the expo to give out advice and help small businesses get off the ground.
Getting off the ground was exactly what Luisa Lopez was there for.
Lopez recently began Lopez Investigative Services, where she provides background investigation services, and said hasn't yet had any business.
"(I'm) just trying to let people know who I am and what I'm about," she said.
Event organizer Million Heir-Williams, vice president of the Jacksonville-Onslow Chamber of Commerce, said that the event was "wonderful."
MED Day stems from a 1969 order signed by President Richardson Nixon to establish the President's Council on Minority Business Enterprise. That order resulted in the Office of Minority Business Enterprise, which was created at the U.S. Department of Commerce and later became the Minority Business Development Agency.

This is the story of a lifetime friendship and a car — a 1930 Ford Model A roadster.
The story dates to 1950. Mack Ray was 15 and Al Jones was 13 when Ray went to work at Jones Laundry. It was a business on Trollinger Street owned by Al's father, John.
Ray was paid 50 cents an hour.
"We did everything," Ray said of the work assignments he and the younger Jones shared.
The two bonded, becoming best of friends. They palled around together through their teen years. Ray graduated from Williams High School in 1954. Jones followed in 1955.
While their lives took different paths after high school, they remained in touch. Ray served a stint in the Army before going to work for Western Electric as an illustrator. He stayed with the company through its numerous transitions and mergers — retiring with 35 years of service from what was by then Lucent Technologies.
Ray has since worked at Lowe Funeral Home on South Church Street.
Jones graduated from Catawba College in Salisbury, where he was an excellent musician — involved with a number of bands. After college he joined the Navy and was accepted into the Naval Flight Program.
Jones rose through the ranks to the role of flight navigator. During the 1960s he served aboard F4 Phantom Fighters in combat missions over Vietnam. He twice flew at the speed of sound and served as a flight instructor at the Naval Air Station at Pensacola, Fla.
Jones retired as a Navy commander after 27 years of service, moving to Virginia Beach, Va. He continued to travel often to Alamance County, to the family farm he owned off N.C. 49 in Bellemont.
It was at the farm where Jones for years kept the Model A Ford he purchased in New Zealand — during one of his last duty assignments with the Navy. He had the car shipped back to the United States when his military career ended.
The Model A is a right-hand drive — built by Ford of Canada, the branch that built all of the company's European models. It's a convertible with a rumble seat. It's painted dark blue with black fenders.
It's a beauty.
Ray said that when he and Jones got together for lunch or just to chat, they'd often discuss the Model A. They both loved the car.
Ray said one of Jones' favorite stories was about the day he finally drove the Model A from Alamance County to Virginia Beach. The old Ford was dependable, but not built for speed. It took Jones six hours to drive it on back roads to its new home.
A good portion of the trip, he had motorists behind him, waiting for an opportunity to pass.
"He laughed," Ray said, recalling the words of his friend. "He said they weren't all pleased with him."
Half those motorists, Jones recalled, would pass and give him a thumbs-up in appreciation of his antique ride. The other half would use their fingers to convey a far different message.
Ray said he remembers Jones calling him once.
"He said, 'Mack, I'm not ready to sell the Model A, but when I do, I'll give you first crack at it,' " Ray recalled.
Ray said he thanked Jones, but told him he didn't know if he could afford the car, and even if he could, if he could justify the expense. He and his wife, Gerry, have two daughters and three grandsons. There was always something or someone else on which to spend money.
Over time, Jones grew sick with cancer. He died last April 4 at the age of 74.
The night of Jones' death, Ray called his widow, Jean, to offer his condolences. They talked for several minutes, sharing stories about Jones and even a chuckle or two.
Just before she hung up, Jean paused.
"Mack," she said, "Al left you his Model A. He wanted you to have it."
Ray was flabbergasted.
"I always wanted to drive one," he said. "I never dreamed I'd own one."
Last June, Ray and Jim Lowe, the owner of Lowe Funeral Home, drove to Virginia Beach and —– not being as adventuresome as Jones — trailered the Model A back to Burlington.
The car had sat for a period and was no longer in running condition. Ray took it to a local mechanic — William Tickle — who did a few things to the Model A to return it to roadworthy status.
Ray doesn't drive it often, but he putters about town on occasion. He said he plans to show it in upcoming parades.
"It's all mechanical and stiff," Ray said of his ride. "It's a lot of fun to drive, but it's not like driving a new one."
Ray admitted that putting a value on the Model A isn't easy. He said Jones' widow told him they had the vehicle insured for $20,000. Ray, 77, said the car will never be sold as long as he's alive — going instead, he said, to his grandsons when he dies.
"It'll be a project to keep them together," he said.
One day last week, Ray stepped back to admire the Model A that he keeps garaged at Lowe Funeral Home. He said he has to sometimes pinch himself to prove it's really his.
"Somehow or another, Al wanted me to have this car," Ray said. "He was very free-hearted, as you can tell. He was a really good guy. I miss him."

Absolutely Beautiful!
The invitations were everything my fiancé and I wanted, and more. I am incredibly pleased with every aspect of the invitation, and with how prompt delivery was. These are probably the nicest invitations for a wedding I have ever seen!
We loved our wedding invites!
Our wedding invites and rsvp's were beautiful and great quality.
I love the card!
I used a wedding invite for my sweet 16 invitations, and they are beautiful! The box they came in is stunning, and the invitations are great quality.
fantastic invitation
It was just what we were looking for! We wanted a simple invite that personified our marriage and wedding. We were able to make this invite our own with just the right colors and font and taking out some of the elements we did not want. I would recommend using a non-Safari browser to use the editing tools because it would freeze up in Safari. I would also recommend playing around with the tools because we figured out we could do a lot more than we originally thought! For the things you can't change yourself, the design team is pretty quick about responding to any request. You do have to be really specific because some of the proofs were not aesthetically pleasing, so you just can't assume that they'll take artistic liberty within your words. The quality can't be beat. The We paired this invite with the Love Airways invite holder in our colors. We've had a lot of compliments on our invitation being unique and super nice.
Wedding invitations
I ordered the invitations, seating cards, magnets, rsvp cards, address labels and seals for my wedding which is a laidback, beach type of theme (even though it is at Disney) and these were absolutely perfect. The colors were able to be modified, the fonts were able to be adjusted, and the quality of the items I got was beautiful. Shipping was very quick too and I am even considering ordering all my mailing labels through here in there future! :) Would recommend to anyone!!

So let's not get carried away. Lebron is a better all around player. Had Kobe done this in his youth maybe there'd be a discussion but he didn't because of the triangle and that's that
But Kobe is playing awesome. Showing what it means to be a great player. Being able to adapt

State Treasurer Bill Lockyer asked the California attorney general Monday to investigate whether school officials were breaking the law by hiring banks and their political strategists to promote bond measures before voters.
Lockyer did not name the schools or banks involved in these deals. But some of the examples he describes in a letter to Attorney General Kamala Harris are the same as the Register found in place at Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified in a recent investigation.
His letter focuses on agreements where school districts give banks exclusive contracts to sell bonds approved by voters in return for the firms providing pre-election campaign services.
Placentia-Yorba Linda hired a bank named George K. Baum & Co. before a bond election in 2008. Voters agreed in the election that the district could issue $200 million in bonds to continue an ambitious building spree. School officials denied they had hired the bank for political work on the bond campaign, but public documents and interviews showed that the firm's strategists were extensively involved in getting the measure passed.
Under state law, it is illegal for school officials to use public money to hire political consultants to pass bond measures. But school districts across California continue to have political strategists who are being paid by their banks or outside financial advisors manage their bond election campaigns.
Lockyer said in an interview Monday that he believes these practices are illegal. If the attorney general agrees, he said, and issues a formal legal opinion, it could then be used by state or local prosecutors to challenge the deals.
"I was startled by how explicit the quid pro quos have become," Lockyer said.
Neither officials from Placentia-Yorba Linda or George K. Baum, which is headquartered in Kansas City, responded to calls for comment on Monday.
Carol Downey, president of the Placentia-Yorba Linda board, said previously that no public funds were used to pay the bank for the political campaign and that the firm's above-average fee for underwriting services was similar to what other California schools paid.
Baum executives have said they had followed "the letter and spirit of the many federal and state laws and regulations that govern our business."
In recent years, Baum executives have traveled to dozens of California school districts offering similar deals. According to documents, the bank has offered the schools help from its staff of political strategists and pollsters in putting a bond measure on the ballot and getting it passed. It has promised the schools that they will owe it nothing if the bond measure fails.
But if the measure succeeds, the schools must pay Baum fees to underwrite all the bonds authorized by voters. Placentia-Yorba Linda paid the bank 1.1 percent of the principal amount of the voter-approved bonds – or about $2 million. That fee is almost twice the national average that schools have paid for similar underwriting work.
George K. Baum's agreements with Placentia-Yorba Linda and other districts also gave the bank wide latitude in designing the debt and including terms that favored its investor clients who wanted to buy school bonds. Some of those bonds have included terms so detrimental to the school districts that they will haunt taxpayers for decades.
For example, just one $22 million borrowing by Placentia-Yorba-Linda in 2011 will cost taxpayers nearly 13 times that amount -- $280 million – to pay back. That loan consists of capital appreciation bonds, which are like a loan where no payments are made for as long as 40 years. That means that interest is charged on unpaid interest, greatly increasing the cost for future taxpayers.
Those who have criticized similar election practices by banks and school districts in the past praised Lockyer for requesting a formal legal opinion.

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To identify which human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes and antigens a person has inherited, primarily to match up donors and recipients of organ and bone marrow transplants and to detect antibodies to HLA antigens that would cause transplants to be unsuccessful
When to Get Tested?
Most often, transplant recipients are tested when it is determined that they need an organ or bone marrow transplant, prior to seeking and selecting a suitable donor; potential donors are tested when they are being evaluated for compatibility with a specific recipient or are signing up with a national donor registry.
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm; sometimes, for HLA typing, a swab from the inside of the cheek (buccal swab)
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are part of the major histocompatibility complex or MHC. They refer to certain specialized proteins (antigens) present on the surface of all nucleated cells in the body and the genes that code for them. Everyone has an inherited combination of HLA antigens present on the surface of his or her white blood cells (leukocytes) and other cells that contain a nucleus. HLA testing identifies the major HLA genes a person has inherited and their corresponding antigens that are present on the surface of their cells.
HLA antigens and the MHC system play an important role in the management of the immune system. They help the body's immune system distinguish which cells are "self" and which are "foreign" or "non-self." Any cells that are recognized as "non-self" can trigger an immune response, including the production of antibodies. HLA antibody testing is also performed on transplant recipients to determine if there are any antibodies present that would target the donated organ or tissue.
This is important in medicine when transplanting tissue or an organ(s). In bone marrow transplants, the HLA genes that the donor and recipient have need to be the same or match as closely as possible for a transplant to be successful and for the tissue not be attacked or rejected by the recipient's immune system. Also, bone marrow donors and recipients must match closely so that the immune cells (lymphocytes) in the donated bone marrow do not attack the recipient's cells in a process called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD; see Common Questions #4).
In solid organ transplants, such as kidney or lung transplants, it is ideal to match the antigens between the donor and recipient; however, the typing incompatibilities are less critical as long as the recipient has not produced antibodies directed against donor's antigens. Various drugs may be administered to help suppress the recipient's immune system in order to minimize organ rejection.
When the donor organ is compatible with the intended recipient, it is less likely to be rejected in the immediate post-transplant period. HLA testing, along with ABO blood typing, is used to identify and match organ and tissue transplant donors with recipients who have the same or an acceptable number of matching HLA genes and antigens.
Finding a donor who is compatible with an intended recipient may sometimes be difficult. Part of the reason is because each particular HLA gene can have numerous possible forms or variations (alleles). This is referred to as polymorphic. In addition, there are more than 200 genes that make up the large "gene family" of the HLA system. With many different possible combinations and numerous HLA genes to take into account, it can be a challenge to find a suitable donor.
However, HLA genes that are located close together, as seen on chromosome 6, are inherited together as groups known as haplotypes; thus, a child inherits one haplotype from each parent. Because of this, there is a greater chance that family members will have the same group of HLA genes compared with non-related potential donors. Often, a recipient's parents, children, or siblings may serve as the best transplant matches.
Read the article on The Universe of Genetic Testing for more on inheritance and the HLA system.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm. Sometimes, for HLA typing, a swab of cells is collected from the inside of the cheek (a buccal swab).
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

Eileen West Clara and Nutcracker Flannel Nightgown 5 5
Keeps us warm Well my story isn't the happiest but nice just the same. Mom passed before she got to wear it. It was for her 92 birthday which would have been March 20. You see I live in Florida and she lives in Oswego, NY. Both of us Hate the cold so I had gotten her one for Christmas from you guys and she loved it. Since winter goes on for a while up there, I bought her this one. So while my sister, who she was living with, was down here on vacation, I thought instead if sending it to her, I would just give it to my sister to take back to her. It was while my sister was here that Mom Passed. But also while my sister was here in Florida we had some unseasonable weather which was really cold . So I told my sister that she could have it . She loves it and I am sure will be a continued customer to you! February 26, 2013
Snuggly warm flannel nighty I appreciate a lovely nightgown. The workmanship is very nice. If you live where the nights get awfully cold, this is the nightgown for you. I live in temperate New Mexico, and it's nearly too warm. February 26, 2013
Hospital Hit I ordered this gown because I was going into the hospital for a full hip replacement . . . and nothing makes you feel more like a princess than an elegant soft Eileen West granny gown! I received many compliments! Thank you for carrying such a nice product! I actually ordered 3 gowns and 1 pair of pajamas. The Vermont Country store is fabulous and I know that I am receiving quality, commitment and service when I shop with you. December 19, 2012
Pretty nightdress Nice nightdress, perfect weight and pretty print. I am six feet tall and purchased this gown with flannel fairy tale gown. Needed warm nightdresses for cold and damp New England nights that were long enough to over my legs and arms. I do not like the buttons on the arm opening because they hit an odd spot on my arm (long arms). I wear a size 10 -12 and purchased the M perfect in the shoulders, and very roomy through the hips. The high neck is great for cold nights. I prefer the fairy tale flannel gown better than this style because of the loser arm hole and more open neck line but will keep both since on very cold nights I will need the closed neckline December 17, 2012
I LOVE EILEEN WEST!! I wait every Winter to see what new prints Eileen West is going to have in flannel nightgowns! I am a flannel nightgown nut. I have to be nice and warm durning these cold nights and this is the stye I love with the high necks.They keep me nice and cozy. November 13, 2012

World War II witnessed tremendous growth in the size of American military aviation, from about 2,500 airplanes to nearly 300,000 by the war's end. The Museum's collection of 30 World War II-era American military aircraft ranges from propeller-driven trainers, fighters, flying boats, and bombers to the nation's first generation of jet-powered fighters to take to the air. They represent the pilots of the Army Air Forces, Navy, and Marines, as well as the crews who flew them, the support personnel on the ground and at sea who maintained them, and the people who made these weapons of war on the home front. The legacy of their contribution to World War II and the continued enthusiasm for these aircraft still resonates with Americans today.
Friday, May 8 Flyover
A large formation of World War II-era aircraft, often referred to as "warbirds," will fly over the National Mall in Washington, D.C., in celebration of the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe, or V-E, Day on May 8, 2015. Coordinated by the Arsenal of Democracy World War II Victory Capitol Flyover, the warbirds, ranging from trainers to bombers to fighters, will retrace the role of American military aviation during the conflict in a series of 15 formations.
Check out our online audio gallery during the Flyover.
After, go inside the Museum in DC to see the North American P-51 Mustang and the Grumman F4F Wildcat.
Saturday, May 9 Fly-In at the Udvar-Hazy Center
The next day, a selection of those aircraft will be on display outside the National Air and Space Museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia, as part of the Museum's Fly-In to Victory Day.
Many of the aircraft represented in the fly over can also be found in the Museum's collection. Explore our collection of American World War II aircraft and learn more about the upcoming celebration.

The International Parking Institute's (IPI) Framework on Sustainability for Parking Design, Management, and Operations, outlines industry-wide goals and organization action items that provide education, incentives, and forums for members to learn about and contribute to sustainable parking solutions.
According to IPI Executive Director, Shawn Conrad, CAE, "This Framework reflects the integral role parking professionals play in helping communities achieve sustainability goals and is a living document that will be adapted over time to accommodate new ideas and advancements in the sustainability movement."
As stated in the Framework on Sustainability, parking and transportation solutions should balance economic feasibility, public health and welfare, and consideration of environmental effects. The Framework lists seven goals related to sustainability, as well as ten action areas through which IPI, in close collaboration with its members, will focus efforts.
In the Framework on Sustainability, IPI pledges to promote and support seminars, publications, awards, education certification programs, and other tools and resources on sustainability topics. The Framework also states support for peer-to-peer sharing, long-term views, and third-party collaboration, which are all critical steps in making informed sustainability decisions.
Sustainability continues to be a focus at IPI's annual Conference and Expo, the world's largest parking industry event. Scheduled for June 1-4 in Dallas, Tex., this year's conference includes an educational track on the topic.
In addition, IPI's annual Awards of Excellence competition, which recognizes outstanding achievements in parking, includes two categories to reward environmentally-friendly innovation in new and renovated facilities, as well as operations.
Conrad also noted that just reducing the amount of time it takes for drivers to find a parking spot can significantly reduce fuel waste and emissions, and this can be accomplished through smart planning combined with new technologies and mobile apps that make it easier to find and navigate to available parking spaces.
According to IPI's most recent Emerging Trends in Parking report, an increasing demand for green and sustainable parking solutions is a leading industry trend.
Many parking facilities today are adopting best practices in sustainability with energy-efficient lighting, solar panels, and innovative water and waste management systems to reduce their carbon footprints. These include implementing recycling systems, using local and recycled materials in construction, and installing renewable energy technology such as photovoltaic, wind power, bio-fuels, and hydrogen fuel cells. An increasing number of parking facilities are also supporting sustainability by accommodating alternative fuel vehicles.
In 2014, the Green Parking Council, an affiliate of IPI, will launch a Green Garage Certification program which will be the LEED of garage certification. The program will recognize, verify, and encourage sustainable solutions in new , existing, renovated, and retrofitted parking garages.
The International Parking Institute is the world's largest association representing parking professionals and the parking industry. Learn more and download IPI's Framework on Sustainability for Parking Design, Management and Operations here.
