Police say a Houston-area woman who allegedly was intoxicated has been charged in the accidental run-over death of her husband.
Montgomery County jail records show 56-year-old Ruthie Cook-Scheer of Conroe was being held Sunday on a manslaughter charge. Bond has been set at $100,000.
Online jail records do not list an attorney for Cook-Scheer, who was arrested after 66-year-old Frank Scheer was pinned under the car Saturday night and died.
Conroe police Sgt. Brent Stowe says the death appears to have been an accident and the investigation continues. Emergency responders had to use a jack to lift the vehicle off the man.
An autopsy has been ordered.

To The Editor:
Re: "Meet the new tattooist in town"
I could not believe my eyes last week when I read the second paragraph in Ms. Goff's article about our friend, Meredith Martin, and her new business. The article about this nice woman and her new business was, in my estimation, a good piece of reporting. Why on earth you published such hurtful and ill-chosen words as "dilapidated and deserted" to my wife's and sister-in-law's home of over 60 years is astonishing to me.
Granted, the story was not about the house so why include your own personal thoughts as to the condition the house had been "left in"? You contacted neither Mary nor Susan in describing their home and so you were writing in ignorance of the true reality of the situation. The words are both hurtful and totally inaccurate and show a complete lack of compassion for those survivors of that miserable storm Irene.
If you only knew, if you only had picked up the phone and bothered to ask a few questions, you would have quickly realized how hurtful and dispassionate your words were to the owners of this strong old homestead. This lapse in judgment and this moment of total disregard for those involved with the care and hard work that had gone into said building has caused some real and powerfully felt anger and hurt.
Now I realize that your newspaper is not in the business of hurting people, after all that would cause your readership to tank; however, a reporter's job is to investigate and an editor's job is to edit, proofread and give counsel to the reporter. The ball was dropped, the article about a new business, described in a very derogatory way, this home for some 60 years and the description was completely and utterly inaccurate.
I believe your newspaper, its editor and reporter owe the Moretown community, survivors and volunteers and most especially Susan and Mary Goodyear a public, heartfelt apology.
The Valley Reporter is a community newspaper that has, in this particular situation, lost its sense of community and compassion. Let me simply say accuracy is more important than deadlines. Read and reread and think before you roll the presses.
David Peterson

Rated 3.8 out of 5Â by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by T-L-C PERFECT!! I had been looking for a boho, beachy dress that didn't corset me so tight that I couldn't eat but one that still looked feminine. This was perfect. From the minute I opened the box I knew this was the one. I did have to custom make a slip for underneath to give it a more elegant feel than a romper or short slip (pictured# gave it. I also added a layer of fabric to the bottom because it was ankle length and I really wanted it to touch the ground. #I used hand dyed cheesecloth for a similar gauzy feel.) I got a small. I am 5'6" about 115. It is very flowy and not form fitting at all but with a sway that gives away your shape underneath it. I felt like a mermaid. Probably not for everyone, but if you're looking for effortless, flowy comfort, this is it. I included a couple pictures, hope this helps! 10.23.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by olderhippiebride love this dress I have been searching for the perfect dress for my very casual beach wedding for months. This one is just right for me...I am 48 & love boho hippie-style clothing and wanted a gauzey beautiful dress that would be comfortable. It is not a traditional bridal dress and it is very very sheer & lightweight so be aware of that and plan on getting a slip for underneath. The back is very low so the slip will show as it does on the model. The color is nice but looks darker in person to me than the pics here - sort of like an ever so slightly gray ivory. The best thing about it is the way it moves when you walk - if you like to twirl, this is a twirly girl dress. For reference, I am 5'5 and 150 pounds with c size breasts and a big butt. I got the large. The length is perfect, just like the model pics. 9.23.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by NinjaGirl Beautiful but very sheer I was hesitant to purchase this dress because it looked very sheer online, but I wanted something white and flowy to take on vacation with me to Hawaii. There was no mention of a lining, so I assumed that there wasn't one...and there wasn't one. It is made of a very fine crinkled cotton gauze fabric that looked like a nightgown in the packaging, so I was already expecting the worst before I tried it on. Surprisingly, it is very flattering on and not nightgowny at all. The top lies smoothly across the collarbones, and the skirt falls perfectly from the empire waist down. The skirt is light and flowy. The fabric is very delicate, so there is a question about whether it will snag or not. It is not a perfect white but with just a touch of cream to it, and the bottom ruffle is a little darker and made of a different textured gauze, like a loosely woven first aid bandage type of gauze that is not finished. I am only 5'2" and the bottom hem brushes the top of my feet, so it's pretty close to how it looks on the studio model. The cut out embroidery is very pretty and adds a little dimension to the dress. Given the price of this dress versus the fabric, I am not sure if it is worth it, but it is beautifully made. If you are looking at an XSmall, here are the measurements of the one I received: length from top of strap: 54" bust all around: 31" waist all around (relaxed): 28" armhole drop: 9" Since there was no lining, I pulled on my ivory seamless mini and it looked pretty close to what the model is wearing although she might have the seamless romper on. Also, FP added a beautiful crochet covered hanger for the dress. 6.3.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by anasav See Through This dress is absolutely gorgeous!! Well made, flows beautifully and fits like a dream BUT it is SEE TRHOUGH!! I do not think that at this price I should also have to go find a slip to wear under it. I cannot for the life of me understand why they would not line this dress so it can be worn as is. I had to return it even though it broke my heart to do so. 3.6.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by tink5082000 Too Gauzy The style of the dress is gorgeous, but the first thing I noticed was how gauzy the dress really is. Too casual for a wedding or a party. Also, the sizing is a bit weird for chesty women. It fit my chest area perfectly, but the fabric is so loose around my waist that it makes me look like I have absolutely no shape. Not very flattering at all. 7.14.2012
Rated 1 out of 5Â by blackw1dow Misleading title, Maybe only good for halloween Ok the title for this one is very misleading "beach bride" , as you can see from other reviewers it's not entirely "bridal" or "beachy" . It's unlined so you need to buy a slip, and what bride would want to wear a gauzy dress for her wedding? I wanted something a bit flowly chiffon-like and pretty. The dress should be retitled "beach bum dress or lazy days dress"..because I've only seen it work as a halloween costume..well even saying it "worked" on them is debatable. The one thing I did like about it was the eyelet holes, but those will go unnoticed if you wear a white slip or don't have a tan. Returned!!! 6.20.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by dallasdiva IN LOVE I got this and couldn't be happier! The cut is to die for and the color is exactly as pictured. The fit is TTS if not a tad loose. If between sizes, go down, not up. THe dress is totally sheer, and that annoys me to no end but I have stuff to work with it. 4.7.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by verogur Gorgeous! I wore this dress to my best friend's wedding on a boat. The dress is so pretty.. the back goes lower than pictured. The only issue I had is that it is completely see-through... even the red! I wore pasties and a sort of skirt-slip underneath because I got the dress a day before and didn't have time to prepare. LOVED it but I'll definitely be getting it lined for my next use! 3.18.2013

Rowdy Ronda Channels Chael
As if Chael Sonnen needed a motherfucking copycat.
I hate motherfucking fighter drama, that's why I don't watch the WWE or countdown to UFC XIV or any other kind of bullshit that set up to make fights more interesting or whatever. Fights are interesting because of the **** that happens inside the cage, not the incessantly stupid yammering and **** that invariably occurs before the fight. Then again, my last girlfriend told me I don't know what the **** foreplay is, so whatever.
Anyway, it's Ronda again, and she's talking more ****.
Said GSP is a boring ************ and he needs to get his ass beat and so on. The usual ****. No problems there, girl runs mouth, motherfuckers hope Liz Carmouche wrecks her **** at UFC 157. Who the **** is Liz Carmouche?
Anyway, it turns to fucking stupid when she goes after GSP again, because GSP expressed an opinion this time. And **** opinions.

to me womens mma is much like womens tennis, its not that i dont think they should be doing it, i just dont give much of a **** because its never as good. im sure there are people who are way into womens tennis (for reasons other than the obvious) and the same with womens mma, but the problem comes when people try and make an argument about someones OPINION. GSP doesnt like watching women fight. it isnt a discussion or a debate, its a simple fact. he isnt saying that women shouldnt fight. now whether its neccessary for him to air his opinion when he is a front man of the sport is a different thing entirely. he could have simply said "good for them i hope they do well" and kept his private opinion to his private self. as an ambassador of the sport, this may have been a better option.

I agree that she either overreacted or is trying to use this to get female mma some more press, and that that is something mixed martial arts does not need. I don't however think she is quite far enough off her rocker to be accused of channeling chael, an influential guy saying that he has never seen you fight and that he is not interested in it would probably piss most of us off too if we were in her shoes.

If a ************ said something like "I could never get into combat sports. That **** is cool if they enjoy fucking each other up and causing brain damage and getting retarded and whatever, but **** me in eyeballs, I don't wanna see that ****. If you like that ****, then by all means, get your concussion on, but I won't watch that ****". Would that be offensive as well? Or is it because he has different standards for men and women?
He does. But that ****'s not surprising. Everyone has different standards for men and women. I don't be hanging around outside the club at 4 in the goddamn morning like a tribal Dexter in camouflage with poison darts and chloroform and **** because I'm looking for dudes. Nah, at that point it's all about the bitches.
He sees women differently because society does. Men don't wear makeup and so on, that is reserved for chicks, and David Beckham.
Is my saying "real dudes shouldn't wear high heels" sexist? What the ****, man?

Yep, in fact:
Known for intimidating and ruffling her opponent's feathers long before fight night, Ronda Rousey says it might just be a waste of breath trying to attempt those tactics against the ex-marine, Liz Carmouche, ahead of their UFC 157 bantamweight title fight."I like Liz," she said. "She's a Marine, I'm not going to be able to intimidate this girl. The prefight intimidation stuff won't work, I won't have that advantage I usually have over my competition.

For just a few dollars, attendees could take their imagination anywhere as the book sale had a vast selection of fiction and non-fiction paperbacks and hardbacks, audio books, movies, and puzzles. Hundreds of people ventured out in the rain and headed to Gray Station Middle School to buy items as low as 50¢, many taking advantage of buying a bag for $10 to fill up with as many books as possible.
"We came to the sale because we both love to read and it was a good chance to buy some books for a good cause," said David and Sara Richardson. "We are finding many good books and already have one bag full. We were afraid when we started out the day that maybe it wouldn't be much of a crowd because of the rain, but we were surprised and happy that it is a good crowd and speculating on what it would have been had it been nice weather. "
The purpose of the sale was to raise money so that all eight schools in the county could purchase new books, and proceeds totaled almost $4,200. The leftover books were picked up by Friends of the Houston County Library for their upcoming book sale.
"I am just amazed by the support that we had from Jones County, not only through their donations but as well as their participation and attendance today," said Clifton Ridge Middle Media Specialist Shelby Henderson. "It has just been overwhelming, and we are so excited with all the new books we will be able to purchase."
"We are just so excited about the community coming together and supporting all of us and the Jones County school system so that we can buy new books for our children," said Jones County High Media Specialist Jennifer Claxton.
Attendees also enjoyed a bake sale, basket raffle, entertainment by several Jones County School choirs, dance teams, and cheerleaders, and a Winter Art Show contest. The art show winner for K-2 was Lindsy Goss from Gray Elementary, grades 3-5 was Isabella Walker from Mattie Wells, grades 6-8 was Jessica Hale from Gray Station Middle, and 9-12 was Jennifer Carr from Jones County High.

David Strathairn went to Ringling Bros. Clown College. Just fyi. I thought that was a neat bit of trivia, when I read it.
Another thing I noticed on a recent re-watch of Dolores Claiborne...I think a good portion of JJL's performance was informed by the performance of the younger actress who played Selena at 13. The younger actress did an amazing job, but I think JJL was playing her at 30, not whatever she might have imagined of the character from the book or the script, if that makes sense.

text: Puglisi Big Threadfin Shad 1/0The Puglisi Threadfin Shad is one of my favorite gamefish flies for fishing in the Southeast United States. Threadfin Shad is a very important forage for trout, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, stripers, white bass and many other predator species. The Puglisi Theadfin is the best imitation I can find anywhere. These flies look realistic in the water and they work well.Though we buy these from Enrico Puglisi and apply the black dot and chartreuse tail with markers, I actually tie my own and have for years. To do a good job tying this particular fly, and trimming it correctly would take me 45 minutes to an hour to accomplish. Thankfully they are very durable. I know these flies are not cheap. The time to tie them drives the price.We offer three different sizes of the Puglisi Threadfin Shad and this one is the big guy. It is 3 /12 inches long and it is tied on a heavy 1/0 hook. I would use this fly in waters where I know the threadfins get this large. This size would target very large trout, bass and stripers.This fly will also require a heavy fly rod if you want to cast far. I suggest at least an 8 weight and I would prefer a 9 or 10 weight. You will do fairly well with the 8, but cast much better with the higher line size rods.If you fish lakes for large bass, trout or stripers, you should have one of these flies in your collection. The same holds true if you fish for these species in tailwaters that have populations of threadfin shad. You might catch the brown trout of a lifetime on a fly like this one. And, you might catch the smallmouth bass of a lifetime. These big shad patterns are capable of enticing trophy fish.This fly comes standard with a mono loop weed guard which you can cut off if desired.Byron BegleyFREE GROUND SHIPPING IN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATESLittle River Outfitters is a fly shop and mail order company located in Townsend, Tennessee, a gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We have been family owned since 1994.

The line was not bad at 7am when I voted. It is my 3rd Pres. election and I always thought that people that dress patriotic-ish to go vote are kinda dorky but, well saw a few cute seniors.

Tanner Tools certainly can be used to design these circuits and more. As for examples, you can go under the Help menu and choose Setup Examples. This will install a number of examples under My Documents that you can look through for the ones you need.

OMAP Zoom
As with all software, there are many different architectures and OS's that can run on a given platform. But almost all embedded designs can be broken down into 3 primary building blocks – Boot Loader, Kernel, and File System. See the SoftwareOverview for a generic description of how a system might be put together.
Jump to the Android Project Site.
Boot Loader
We use a popular embedded boot loader called U-Boot for the OMAPZoom.
New board flashing support :
- Perl script to sned x-loader over UART, using ROM code's UART peripheral booting functionality.
- X-loader supports downloads of a binary on the board. It can then download u-boot.
- MMC/SD booting using X-loader and U-boot on SD cardcan also be used.
X-loader supports :
Apart from what 3430 SDP supports:
- loadb (binary download)
- MMC booting
U-boot supports :
Apart from what 3430 SDP supports:
- writing x-loader to NANDusing hardware ECC.
- battery charging
- Triton2's PBON/PBOFF feature
- MMC booting
Other OS's have been ported to the OMAPZoom platform; however, this site is about openness and that currently translate to Linux. You can view Linux as a core plus a collection of additional services control by the kernel configuration parameters. With so many variation in parameters, saying you have a Linux kernel is usually not enough. Essentially, you have a Linux kernel configured a specific way. There is a default configuration and a few alternate configurations provided for the OMAPZoom platform each of which tries to balance different aspects of the kernel with respect to size, power, and features.
Kernel supports :
- Core: OMAP3430 support, Timers, DMA, I2C, McBSP
- Connectivity: UART, Ethernet, HS-USB OTG
- Storage : NAND flash, MMC/SD
- Display: LCD, TVOut, DVI-720p
- Input: Keypad, Touchscreen
- Sound: Audio
- Other: RTC, USB battery charging
File Systems
Open source offers an astronomical degree of freedom and variation, it also presents a huge challenge. File systems are like walking into an auto parts store and ordering a car. Thousands of parts and nothing guarantees it will work together. Fortunately, not only has there been great effort in producing innovative and quality parts, huge efforts have gone into putting those parts together into systems. The point of this project is not to reinvent what others have already done, but to optimize and fine tune those efforts for the underlying hardware.

If there was one thing that the political rhetoric following Monday night's presidential debate indicated, it's that our nation is deeply divided. Of course, that isn't anything new, as a study released in June by the Pew Research Center illustrates.
"Americans' values and basic beliefs are more polarized along partisan lines than at any point in the past 25 years," the study reads, and anyone paying attention to the debate on the national scene can attest to that.
In other words, if Democrats are for it, you can rest assured that Republicans are against it, and the reverse is also true.
A quick flip of the channels following Monday's presidential debate, from the conservative mouthpiece that is Fox News to the ultra-liberal views being spouted over at MSNBC, gives us a good indication of the state of our national politics. You're either for us or you're against us. And if you're a moderate, there's no room for you in the conversation at all. You can be either a Harry Reid or a Mitch McConnell, but dare not be an Arlen Specter.
According to the aforementioned Pew study, Americans are now more deeply divided along partisan lines than any other measure, including race, gender, and class. These divisions are the largest with issues such as the environment and the social safety net, and at present there seems to be no end for that divide in sight.
As a result, our political system remains in a perpetual gridlock as lawmakers approve measures based on party lines, and kick the can down the road on major issues like the budget to avoid having to make a decision.
No matter who wins the presidency a couple weeks from now, these types of divisions have to be healed in order to move the country forward. We simply can't continue to turn our backs on our fellow Americans just because there may be a disagreement. Government has an important role to play in ensuring opportunities for the citizenry and the security of the nation, but that work will never get done as long as our party affiliation gets in the way of what's right. You don't have to always agree, but you should very well be willing to listen and discuss without acting like someone just stole your lunch money.
It's time for our elected leaders to grow up and act like adults should. It's only the future of our nation at stake.

Yadkin County residents can transport themselves under the sea this weekend with the Boonville Elementary School drama group as they perform "The Little Mermaid" for their annual musical.
"This is the sixth year that we've had a musical," said Miranda Lowder, director for the performance. "I started the program my first year of teaching here. This is the only elementary school in the county that offers drama for the students."
There will be performances March 22, 23 at 7 p.m. and March 24 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $6 apiece and can be purchased in advance at the main office or at the door when doors open 30 minutes prior to the show.
This year the program will present a beloved Disney classic featuring the mermaid, Ariel and her prince, Eric. The program has a history of performing fairy tale classics. Last year's performance was "Beauty and the Beast."
"The rights to 'The Little Mermaid' were just released this year, so that's why we chose it," Lowder said. "We have a lot of good sixth graders this year, and this show allows us to showcase a lot of people. So I try to choose the shows based on the talent that we have."
Lowder said this play and the others she's used before were Broadway Junior shows. They come as a kit complete with age appropriate scripts and a CD with all the music needed for the performance, eliminating the need for an orchestra.
The drama program at Boonville Elementary is an after-school program that requires an audition by students. Lowder said each year the program grows in popularity, and due to space constraints she is forced to turn some students away.
"There are 38 kids in the show this year, and a little over 50 kids auditioned," Lowder said. "I'd love to be able to keep everyone, but our space is tiny. We have relatively no backstage space, so it's hard to keep them all confined backstage during the show."
Lowder said that the performance is a labor of love for several staff members. Newell Hauser, a 3-6 teacher at Boonville, is acting as stage manager for the performance. Ginger Holt, the school's music teacher, is acting as the musical director.
"If we didn't have Newell or Ginger then the program wouldn't be what it is," Lowder said.
Marissa Brooks, the art teacher at Boonville, painted the set pieces.
Lowder fills in the remaining roles as director, choreographer, producer and costumer.
"I have spent every waking moment since January on this," Lowder said. "I started preparing for it this summer, looking for costumes and things like that."
The drama program is a self-maintaining program at the school, functioning off the profits from the year before. Lowder said that each show costs approximately $3,000 to put on. These costs are broken down into rights to the show, rights to video the performance, lights and sound.
To add to the overall cost the group decided to add a performance to this year's schedule due to the overwhelming response they received from last year's performance.
"Last year we had 500 people here in two nights, and it's a really small space. So we decided to add an extra show this year," Lowder said.
In order to help offset those extra costs the cast hosted a fundraising event on March 16. They called it "Under the Sea with Ariel" and invited residents to come out to the school's multi-purpose room and see the cast perform three numbers from their show, have a sea themed snack, have a meet and greet with the characters, do a craft and take pictures on the set.
"It was really good for the actors because they are not here for themselves," Lowder said. "They are here so that the kids attending have a good experience. It was a different concept for them. They did a really good job."
The cast was able to raise over $300 through the fundraiser. These monies will go towards paying off any remaining costs from this year's performance and the rest will go into the drama fund for next year.
Lowder said that she believes the program makes a difference for the students who participate and offers them a unique outlet to express themselves.
"I really believe in this program," Lowder said. "We have children that have learning disabilities, we have children who are academically gifted and we have a really broad group of kids. It's not about them as individuals; it's about them as a group.
"I feel like it's such a great program for their self-esteem," Lowder continued. "They get to see something from the very beginning all the way to the end and that's pretty rare that kids are involved through the whole process."
Lowder said that if anyone is interested in making a donation to the school's drama fund they may do so by writing a check to Boonville Elementary School with a note to deposit it to the drama fund. Donations are tax deductible.

The Kustom® KG100HFX is a classic, 100-watt guitar amp head. It offers two channels (Rhythm and Lead), tone controls and digital effects. Although it will work with a wide variety of speaker cabinets, it is intended to use with the Kustom KG412 cabinet because it will deliver all 100 watts to this 4-ohm cabinet.
The KG100HFX's Rhythm channel offers clear, dynamic tones that are perfect for a wide variety of musical styles. Using the Gain control, the Lead channel can dish out anything from chunky Classic Rock sounds to the heaviest, scooped Metal tones out there. Separate Bass, Middle and Treble controls let players fine-tune the tonal response as required.
In addition, the KG100HFX provides built-in Reverb and Delay effects that may be activated on the amp's front panel. Reverb can provide anything from subtle room ambiance to an all-out wash of cavernous sound. Delay is perfect for fattening up lead tones, especially when combined with distortion. Chorus adds a shimmering, liquid-like quality to the sound, especially with chords.
Like every KG amp, the KG100HFX offers an auxiliary input for plugging in an MP3 or CD player to practice along with tunes and a 1/8-inch headphone input. Now you can leave your KG412 speaker cabinet at your band's rehearsal space, bring your KG100FX head home and practice along with MP3s – all without the need for a speaker cabinet. Just plug in your headphones and rock!
An Effects Loop with Send and Return jacks provides flexibility for integrating external effects and processors. When the KG100HFX is used with a dual-function footswitch, channel-switching and a "hidden" volume boost feature may be activated. The boost is perfect for making solos stand out in a band mix. (Note: The Kustom KACFS201 footswitch may be used for this application.)

I almost always knit through staff meetings, since it was the only way I could stay awake.

Having your spouse deployed can bring up a wide range of emotions, starting when you first learn about the deployment and continuing until well after your spouse has returned home. As you go through this emotional process, you may experience many emotions or combinations of emotions, including fear, anger, loneliness, joy, relief and anticipation.
When you first learn about the deployment, you may go back and forth between pretending that the deployment isn't really going to happen and starting to think about what it will be like to live without your spouse for a long period of time. You may feel confused, stressed, resentful or depressed.
As the day of departure nears, some spouses begin to feel detached or withdrawn as their service members invest more time and commitment in the mission. Common reactions to an impending deployment include feelings of hopelessness and impatience. Some couples may experience a decrease in emotional or physical closeness. To help keep things positive and loving with your spouse during the pre-deployment period, remember that it's important to:
Many family members go through a difficult adjustment period in the first weeks after their service member leaves. You may have feelings of sadness, disorientation, anxiety or anger. Fortunately, this feeling of being on an emotional roller coaster often gives way to a growing sense of self-confidence and independence. Here are some suggestions for coping during a spouse's deployment:
As the end of the deployment nears, military spouses experience growing excitement and anticipation, as well as apprehension. You'll wonder how your service member has changed, knowing that you've changed, too. You may have concerns about what your relationship will be like after you've been apart for so long.
The post-deployment period can last from a few weeks to several months. You may experience stress and frustration as you and your service member renegotiate your marriage roles and responsibilities. The reintegration process may be especially difficult if your service member is having difficulty disengaging from combat or is suffering from combat stress.
There are several things you can focus on to reduce stress for you and your family during these emotional times. Here are a few suggestions:
At any stage of deployment, military spouses can feel overwhelmed and unsure about their ability to cope. It's critical to remember that asking for help isn't a sign of weakness - it's a sign that you care about yourself and your family.
If you're feeling sad much of the time or so anxious that you're having difficulty taking care of everyday tasks and routines, you may benefit from some professional help.

Three Texas lawmakers are planning to introduce a new law to give school districts more options in providing security on campus.
Sen. John Whitmire, Sen. Tommy Williams and Rep. Dan Huberty are expected to announce the "Texas School District Security Act" on Tuesday. They say the bill will give districts more options for increased law enforcement and other security measures in schools.
Williams and Huberty are both Republicans, while Whitmire is the Democratic chair of the Senate Criminal Justice Committee. The bill is the latest response to the school shooting in Newtown, Conn. that left 20 children dead.
Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst has proposed providing state-funded special weapons training to school teachers. The National Rifle Association has called for armed guards in every school. Some Democrats want stricter gun laws.

The first of many
A celebration of athletics and academics were the order of the day Wednesday when Thomas Jefferson Classical Academy held signing day festivities for the first time in school history.
Four student athletes, McKinnon Martin, Nathaniel Devon, Anna Dedmon and Ellen Kirkpatrick all accepted offers to compete on the collegiate level in their respective sports.
"This is a great day for Thomas Jefferson," said headmaster Joe Miamone. "We have always been a school that focuses on academics, but now we have students who are going to compete at the highest level of college athletics. Now, we have the best of both worlds."
Athletic director Chris White echoes those sentiments.
"I've been involved with high school athletics for a long time and at a lot of different places," he said. "This ranks right at the top of the most rewarding experiences I've had. To see where the athletic program has come from, I'm so proud of these young people right now."
For their parts, the athletes say that academics and other factors, aside from athletics, played a major role in choosing which college to attend.
According to Martin, who accepted a preferred walk-on position to play football for North Carolina, academics were the top priority in choosing Chapel Hill.
"If it wasn't for my academic background, I wouldn't have the chance to play for North Carolina," he said.
For Devon, who plans to suit up on the defensive line for Mars Hill College next season, many different factors led to his decision to become a Lion.
"Mars Hill is one of three schools in North Carolina that offers a major in Zoology," he said. "That's the main reason I decided to go there. Plus it's close to home so my mom and my family will get to see me play. I'm a big boy and I love to eat, so I'm looking forward to the chance of being close enough to go back home and get a home cooked meal every once and a while."
Coach Jerry Cash believes that Mars Hill's close proximity to Rutherford County will benefit Devon.
"Nathanial is one of those kids who can get homesick," Cash said. "I think him being so close will help him fight through some of that. If he continues to work hard and can stay focused on football, I think he will be an excellent player on the next level."
Gryphon tennis standout Ellen Kirkpatrick committed to Covenant College in Georgia for yet another reason.
"I'm most excited about the mission trips and other similar opportunities Covenant has," she said. "The chance to play tennis just sort of happened. I am excited to be able to keep playing, but I'm more excited about the mission trips."
Kirkpatrick's coach, Rita Stroud, is confident that she can make an impact on the tennis court as well as the mission field.
"Ellen is a great player and that's why she is going to play in college," said Stroud. "She is a leader and a passionate player. I'm very proud of her and I will miss her."
While the other participants in signing day weighed other factors besides athletics when choosing a college, Anna Dedmon admits that it was the driving force behind her decision to become a Charlotte 49er.
"I'm going to Charlotte so I can play Division I soccer," said Dedmon. "I've always wanted to play on the Division I level somewhere and Charlotte's program felt like the right fit. I'm just so excited right now."
No matter the motivation for choosing a college to attend, Miamone says he is proud of each of the student athletes and is hopeful that Wednesday was the first of many signing days in Avondale.
"I am so proud of these four young people because they have excelled athletically and academically," he said. "They have shown that you can achieve success in both areas. They will be able to look back and say that they were the first of many athletes to sign from Thomas Jefferson."

Teacher Walter Cheatham saw an opportunity to provide students an interactive history lesson and expose them to a centuries-old sport by introducing fox hunting to a younger generation. It was also the chance to plant the seeds of preserving a way of life.
Cheatham is the ninth and 10th grade world history and science teacher at Mead Hall Episcopal School, and he's also the Edisto Hounds joint Master of Fox Hounds. Cheatham approached Donna DeTroye, a ninth and 10th-grade English teacher at Mead Hall who is a champion of crossing curriculum and proposed an activity that would let the students learn outside of the classroom in a unique way.
"I talked to Donna, and she was on board," said Cheatham.
The result allowed a group of 12 students to participate in a field trip that took them to an area regularly hunted by the Edisto Hounds – Michael Laughlin's and William Howard's Mill Race Farm.
"This is my biology and world history class," Cheatham said the day of the lesson, which was held late last month. "Fox hunting is intertwined with both the schools, Mead Hall and Aiken Prep, and, with the merger, it was mutually beneficial for everyone."
Fox hunting is a sport with a deep, rich history, but its numbers have declined, and the hunt provided the students with a unique perspective, said Cheatham.
"If you can show it to the younger generations, and one or two of these 12 students will say, 'I really want to do that,'" said Cheatham. "They'll teach their kids and preserve the sport that we love. I'm a passionate fox hunter and would love to share it with anyone I can."
The hunt's participating horsemen consisted of current and former masters, with the exception of one whipper-in, whose in-depth discussion of the sport explained the terminology and answered the students' questions.
The students learned about the horses, the formal attire worn by the horsemen, the importance of the land owner and their generosity, the fixture, the significance of the whipper-in, why and how hounds are kept off adjacent property, cubbing, the cost associated with the sport and the responsibilities of the Master of Fox Hounds, before they embarked on a tour of the property in the tally ho wagon.
"It brings learning to life," said DeTroye.
The students also have been reading literature about the sport spanning three centuries, said Cheatham.
"They can compare the three periods, but they'll also see that fox hunting hasn't changed," said Cheatham. "Fox hunting is a pastime, frozen in time, and these kids are studying history and literature. This is one of the only interactive experiences they can have, and they get to see something the way it happened 300 years ago."

Almost all spiders are venomous, with very few exceptions. However, of more than 50,000 known species worldwide a handful are significantly venomous to humans.
The standard measure of toxicology is the LD50 test (basically a lethal dose which kills more than 50% of your test animals, usually mice or rats) the two species of spider are top of the league; one of the so called Brazilian wanderers, Phonutria fera, and the Sydney Funnel Web, Atrax robustus. That said death is the most extreme reaction to the venom of these spiders and the amount of venom injected varies. The recorded human deaths for these species over the last 50 years appears to about 15-20 each.
To put this in perspective - without doubt there are a greater number of deaths attributed each year to any colour car you care to name. Golf balls are probably also more dangerous.
That's interesting, Bombuslucorum
Of course it wouldn't be ethical to give humans a toxicology test; but mice and rats may not be sensitive in the same way to the same poisons as us[*]. Is there any means of allowing for that?
[* For example, I have heard that chocolate is poisonous to dogs; and a normal human dose of paracetamol may kill a cat as big as a lion]
The Brazilian Huntsman is not the most poisonous spider in the world, that would be the Brown Recluse.

Call it clutch, or winning time, but when the game is on the line, theres something special that separates the great teams from the rest.
Dutch Fork was relentless in its offensive attack, pushing Wando as close to the edge as any team has in the Warriors playoff run this season. But in the final minutes of the game, in front of their home crowd with the season hanging in the balance, the Warriors wouldnt be denied.
Wando knocked off Dutch Fork, 70-64, in the third round of the Class 4A playoffs Tuesday to advance to the Lower State title game for just the third time in school history.
Theyre a great team, but we were just a little bit better in the end and that just what it was, Wando head coach David Eaton said. We showed a lot of toughness to get this win tonight.
Wando won its first two playoff games by 21 points. It didnt lead by more than four points in the second half Tuesday until the final seconds of the game. Dutch Fork rained in 12 threes, eight in the second half. It held a lead three times in the third quarter and was a point away from tying the game with two minutes to play in the fourth before Wando went on a 10-5 run to seal the win.
Just a day after being named to the S.C. Basketball Coaches Association All-state team, Warriors sophomore forward Jamez Rogers lived up to his billing with a game-high 27 points. He scored eight in the fourth quarter, including an emphatic two-hand dunk at the buzzer that nearly blew the roof off of Wandos Chop House.
Its so easy to give up when a team is hot like that on your home floor, but Im so proud of my guys for the way they played, Eaton said. Jamez comes out here and plays one of his best games of the year in the biggest game of the year. Its unbelievable.
Jordan Davis hit five threes to lead Dutch Fork with 19 points. Matthew Pegram scored 17 points and was a huge presence in the post for Wando. Andrew Glover and Amp Moore both added seven points for the Warriors.
Wando finishes the season a perfect 11-0 at home and now travels to Florence Saturday to try and accomplish what no other Wando basketball team has ever done, win a Lower State championship. Region VI champion Sumter (17-5) awaits after defeating Goose Creek, 45-37, Tuesday.
Well welcome anybody, Eaton said. Its fun playing people you dont know. This team has a different mental approach. Theyre so serious about winning. Hot or cold, theyre confident they always have a chance to win. This team is destined for great things and they deserve it.

WILLIAMSON — When the residents of the Williamson Towers, a high-rise residential community located in West Williamson began voicing their concerns about the crime rate in Mingo County and in their neighborhood, several county and state officials set up a Town Hall meeting to give the concerned citizens an opportunity to air their complaints and to meet with and acquaint themselves with those responsible for curtailing crime.
Friday at noon, West Virginia House of Delegates representative Justin Marcum, who also serves Mingo County as an assistant prosecutor, Special Investigator Eugene Crum, Chief Magistrate Dallas Toler and Prosecuting Attorney Michael Sparks attended the meeting and addressed the concerns voiced by the residents of the Towers.
"Mingo County has been divided for way too many years," said Shirley Hinkle. "That's why nothing has ever worked here before, and I for one, say it's good to see change taking place."
Hinkle commented about the escalating crime rates that have steadily risen throughout the past few years, and said she was happy to hear of drug arrests being made within the county. She told Special Investigator Crum that she definitely applauded his efforts in this matter and said she was grateful to all the officers who were doing such a wonderful job protecting the public.
Another Towers resident, Sherry Smith, told those in attendance that had it not been for the caring employees of the Tug Valley Recovery Shelter (TVRS) and Mingo County Family Court Judge Miki Thompson, she may have never been free of a relationship that almost cost the former resident of Logan County her life.
"He held a gun to my head for hours," said Smith, with tears streaming down her face. "I thought I would be killed."
"I wasn't aware that he was a convicted felon, I had no idea he was a violent person," Smith explained.
After finally managing to get away from him, Smith was transported to the TVRS, where she was given a safe place to stay and other items she needed, and received assistance with the legal steps she had to take to acquire a restraining order against the defendant.
"Judge Thompson went above the call of duty to help me," stated Smith. "She granted a lifetime restraining order that prevents him from ever contacting me again. I couldn't ask or expect more than that."
Smith said that the defendant who abused her is scheduled for a court hearing in Logan County next month, and stated that she is hoping and praying that justice is served.
"He belongs behind bars," commented Sparks. "I'm sure they will do the right thing and punish him accordingly for the crimes he committed."
The residents spoke of the problem of public intoxication and the Daily News article they had read regarding the legislative changes Marcum is planning to propose regarding the law and the penalties that need to be enforced against those who commit this crime.
"It's scary to know that these people can walk around in an intoxicated state and they won't be arrested," said Hinkle. It's not only dangerous for us, but it's also dangerous for them. If they're not aware of what's going on around them because of being high or drunk, they could very easily stumble out into the street and be hit by a car and killed."
Marcum and Sparks assured Hinkle that steps were being taken to alleviate this problem and asked her to be patient, saying that they were hopeful changes would be in place in the near future.
"I think it's wonderful that you guys took the time to come and meet with us and talk to us about the problems within the county. It's very refreshing to see a hand's on team of public officials that will actually come and speak with you about your concerns."
"It's also great to be able to put a face with a name, some of us that live here aren't able to get out a lot and we don't always know who everyone is."
"It's been a pleasure to spend time with you guys and always know that if you need us – we're only a phone call away," stated Magistrate Toler. "You elected us – therefore we serve you. That's what we do."

Dear Editor:
I was very honored to be invited by Principal Christopher Swetckie at Howe Hall Arts Infused Magnet School and his staff to attend a March 26 assembly at the school in Goose Creek.
Each spring since 1978, the South Carolina Association of School Administrators has recognized a few schools which offer excellent instruction and outstanding leaders, along with strong family and community involvement and a supportive business community. Howe Hall was recognized for finishing second in the category of Special Schools out of a pool of finalists for the 2014 Palmettos Finest School Awards.
The SCASA presents the awards each year to schools that offer the best in innovative, effective educational programs. The Palmettos Finest Award is celebrating its 36th year and is one of the most coveted and respected awards among educators. Last fall, 17 South Carolina schools submitted 20-page applications and received an onsite examination visit by a review committee. The nine finalists had a second onsite evaluation. The finalist schools gathered on March 26 to learn which had won top honors. SCETV streamed the announcement live to each of the finalist schools.
Congratulations to the Berkeley County School Board, Dr. Rodney Thompson, the district staff, Principal Swetckie, the teachers, students, parents and community supporters of Howe Hall School. I am very pleased the Berkeley County School District was recognized as having one of the most outstanding and innovative schools in South Carolina. This recognition represents the many excellent school communities we have serving Berkeley County and the outstanding job that is being done to educate our youth.
William W. Peagler III
Mayor, Moncks Corner

Stonewall's 2009 research, The Teachers' Report, revealed that three in five primary school teachers who are aware of homophobic bullying in their schools say boys who 'behave or act like girls' are bullied. Two in five say boys who are not into sports are bullied. One in five say boys who are academic experience homophobic bullying. One in six say girls who 'behave or act like boys' experience homophobic bullying and one in ten say girls who are into sports are bullied.
This leads to children feeling they can't be themselves and may lead to lower aspirations and attainment out of fear of being bullied. If not challenged, children will grow up to think that this poor behaviour is tolerated and they therefore won't be prepared for life in our diverse society.
Homophobic bullying is prevalent in primary schools. One in five primary school teachers say children experience homophobic verbal abuse in their schools.
Three quarters of primary school teachers hear 'that's so gay' or 'you're so gay' in school. Two in five primary school teachers hear children making homophobic remarks such as 'poof', 'dyke', 'queer' and 'faggot'.
Three in ten primary school teachers have heard homophobic language or negative remarks about gay people from other school staff.
Read more about of homophobic bullying amongst pupils in The Teachers' Report and about in Different Families.
Many primary school teachers who have not always intervened in instances of homophobic language report that this is because they did not believe the pupils were being homophobic or that the homophobic language they heard was 'just harmless banter'.
More than nine in ten teachers and non-teaching staff at secondary and primary schools (94 per cent) have not received any specific training on how to tackle homophobic bullying. However, teachers know not to tolerate racist language and know how to challenge children who use abusive terms. Tackling homophobic language and bullying doesn't have to be more difficult and The Teachers' Report offers some good practice examples of primary school teachers effectively tackling homophobic bullying. Many teachers are also even more proactive and prevent it by talking about different families in class.
Stonewall has also published an Education Guide on Challenging homophobic language and was commissioned by the Department for Education (DfE) to write guidance on preventing and tackling homophobic bullying.
