South Carolina strengthened its charter school law last year, and a new national ranking reflects that improvement.
The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools, a nonprofit advocacy group, annually rates the strength of states' charter school laws based on 20 factors. South Carolina jumped 13 spots to a No. 12 ranking among the 43 states with charter laws, according to a report released Tuesday.
Mary Carmichael is executive director of the Public Charter School Alliance of South Carolina, and she was among those who pushed hard for the legislative changes. She said she was excited to the see the higher ranking as well as the changes for charter schools statewide.
"The students are the ones who are truly benefiting as we transform the educational landscape in South Carolina," she said.
Charter schools are public schools, but they are not governed by county school boards. They have separate boards to make decisions about funding, policy and curriculum. The state had 55 charter schools last year enrolling nearly 24,000 students.
The changes last year were among the most significant since the state passed its charter school law in 1996. Some of the more noteworthy ones include: allowing higher-education institutions to approve charter schools to open; permitting single-gender charter schools to exist; and letting charter school students participate in extracurricular or athletic activities at their neighborhood school if those aren't offered at their charter school.
The alliance rates states based on whether their law has components that are part of its model law. South Carolina charter school advocates used the alliance's model law as a guide last year.
Nina Rees, president of the national alliance, said states across the country are making their legislation stronger rather than diluting it, and that shows the charter movement is headed in the right direction.
"This is great progress for our sector and a great sign for things to come in the future," she said.
Rees said the ranking doesn't measure the quality of states' charter schools but rather the quality of its law, which is necessary to have good charter schools.
The report is intended to be a guide for lawmakers looking for ways to improve their charter school laws. Carmichael said supporters were working with lawmakers on new proposals to provide facility money and to increase funding for schools in the statewide charter district.
Gov. Nikki Haley and others are talking about reforming the state's education funding system, and "we want to be a part of that conversation," Carmichael said.
State Superintendent of Education Mick Zais also supported the state's new charter school law, and he said it's encouraging to see national groups recognizing the state's efforts "by raising South Carolina's national rankings faster than almost every other state."
"But there is more work to be done to improve the climate for public charter schools, specifically in the areas of equity funding, equal access to facilities, and access to transportation for public charter school students," he said.

Kendra Scott Color Bar
Oh dear.
I'm sorry to lead you into temptation, but I have to share this beautiful, fun (read: addictive) website that allows you to design your own earrings.
If you are an earring lover, enter at your own risk.
It's the Kendra Scott Jewelry Bar. And rather than try to explain it to you…I'll just show you.
You start by selecting the style of earrings, which are in a scrollable bar at the top.
Then you select the stones you want to use…
And drag them, one by one, over to the earring to fill the different spots.
I love yellow and purple together. Let's see if that translates to the earring realm.
The fun part is experimenting. I tried this pale greenish-yellow color next…
Following by this topaz-colored tiger-eye stone.
Then I took those out and went back to the yellow/purple scheme.
The possibilities are absolutely endless.
The earring styles are gorgeous. If you need high-impact in terms of color, this is a great option.
Some of the stones are textured and patterned…
And some are just clear and sparkly.
And I'm madly in love with this one. Gorgeous!
Between the different colors of stones and the different styles of earrings (and, gulp, necklaces)…
The only saving grace for me is that the gem colors take awhile to load each time you switch earring styles, and with the speed (or lack thereof) of my satellite internet connection, there's a limit to how much trouble I can get into. But for you high speed internet folks…you can have some serious fun!
In addition, the custom earrings aren't cheap. But if you really need "the perfect" pair of earrings for a certain event or occasion—or if you want to make someone a one-of-a-kind pair of earrings for a birthday or Christmas gift—it's a nice option to have. (Note, however, that in the case of the large single-stone earrings above, the price of the custom pair is the same as the price of identical pairs already in stock on the website, so it doesn't appear the custom option adds to the price at all.)
(I hope that made sense.)
Here's the link to the website!
Kendra Scott Jewelry COLOR BAR
If nothing else, it's really a fun place to play.
Note: I haven't purchased any of the jewelry from the website, so I'm unable to comment on the quality of the jewelry. If anyone has owned a pair of these earrings, let me know!

Curse you, temptress!! Off to play with the earring thingy!
Lisa On Monday, October 1 at 9:51 am
Wow…these are beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Toni E On Monday, October 1 at 9:54 am
How fun it that?!
It would be a great website for gifts for bridesmaids, wouldn't it? They could have the same style, but stones co-ordinated to their personalities, or to the dresses.
The possibilities are very neat and it is fun to play jewelry designer.
Thanks for the link.
Sooz On Monday, October 1 at 3:54 pm
When I saw the four-lobed earring I immediately thought that Ree should get that with the birthstones of each of her kids.
Julie On Monday, October 1 at 9:56 am
I almost exclusively wear Kendra Scott jewelry! I absolutely adore it. I wear different versions of her studs to work and have a few pairs of her chandeliers / Danielles for weddings and other events. FANTASTIC quality, endless options, and so fun to play with. Makes great birthday and holiday gifts – last month I custom-made a pair of Kendra earrings using the color bar online, but called in the order to the Austin store and had my dad run by and pick them up as his birthday gift to my mom. Great post!
Julie P On Monday, October 1 at 9:56 am
You're right…gorgeous & dangerous!!
Ang On Monday, October 1 at 9:57 am
Ooh, shiny!
Olivia On Monday, October 1 at 10:04 am
I am a big fan of Kendra Scott!
Kendra S On Monday, October 1 at 10:20 am
Why thank you!!! Heehee. That's my name, but I'm most certainly NOT the super fabulous and big time jewerly designer.
Sasha D On Monday, October 1 at 10:15 am
Dear P-Diddy,
You've done it now!!! When my hubby gets the credit card bill, I be sure to forward his rants to you!!! Meanwhile, WOOOHOOOO!!! EARRINGS!! big smile….BIG!
Kelly On Monday, October 1 at 10:17 am
I live right across the street from the Kendra Scott store in Austin. I own a necklace from them and it is great quality. It is such fun stuff!
Kim On Monday, October 1 at 10:20 am
This looks so fun!!! I REALLY need to keep this website a secret from my daughters! Don't tell them!!
SHeila On Monday, October 1 at 10:21 am
EAR RINGS BIG smile
ptunia1 On Monday, October 1 at 10:25 am
How do you keep you earlobes from stretching down to your chest? I've never understood the weighty matter.
Faith Prince On Monday, October 1 at 10:28 am
Now I'm gonna be stuck playing with the different possibilities all day.
Emily N. On Monday, October 1 at 10:31 am
I have seen those earrings at Nordstroms in San Antonio! Apparently she is a designer from Austin but the quality is great! So pretty in person!
Julianne D On Monday, October 1 at 10:32 am
Wow – looks like so much fun to play with. I thank you – and I'm sure my husband doesn't….
Blissful In Gilbert On Monday, October 1 at 10:33 am
Yes I own a pair from Neiman's and I love them for big impact! I have the large single stone ones in turquoise
Sarah On Monday, October 1 at 10:36 am
The earrings are of excellent quality, and each one is absolutely beautiful. However, be warned that many of the styles, particularly the larger ones are very heavy.
For example, those pretty ones that you tried with the purple and the tigers eye – I was given a pair in turquoise as a gift and had to return them for fear of my earlobes falling off!
ptunia1 On Wednesday, October 3 at 11:12 am
Yes…so it isn't just me.
Annette On Monday, October 1 at 10:43 am
Wow…these are fabulous…could get quite addictive!!!
Cindy Brown On Monday, October 1 at 11:04 am

Love the Danielle style… I'll take one in every color. Thanks for the head's up on some really cute and fun jewelry.
Maureen On Monday, October 1 at 11:09 am
How fun! I've been playing with it for 30 minutes
Macie R. On Monday, October 1 at 11:14 am
Great quality jewelry! I love my KS earrings!!
Kristen On Monday, October 1 at 11:18 am
I adore KS! I own two pairs of her earrings (including the Danielle's you mentioned) and have a necklace….but there are so many more of her pieces on my wish list!!!! You really need to visit one of her stores….it'll blow your mind!
Jocelyn Pascall On Monday, October 1 at 11:23 am
Great idea – truly. This would have been great around my wedding when I was struggling to find the right earrings. I think these would be great gifts too. How fun!
Cat Cooks in WI On Monday, October 1 at 11:24 am
Oh dear. You are sooooo right! Totally addicting… sigh.
Donna On Monday, October 1 at 11:24 am
These are so pretty to look at, but I ordered a pair from Neiman Marcus, and had to return them. The large stone looked and felt like plastic. I was so sad.
Linda Velez On Monday, October 1 at 11:29 am
Temptation at its best………….
Jane - jacaranda Designs On Monday, October 1 at 11:35 am
Definitely a very novel, fun idea to create some beautiful bling!

I own so much Kendra Scott it's embarrassing. Beautiful jewelry and holds up very well. I friends with Kendra's niece who wears something different and gorgeous everyday…super jealous haha.
Kim A On Monday, October 1 at 12:23 pm
I like the purple and gold chandelier earrings! GEAUX LSU!!!
Kacie On Wednesday, October 3 at 8:41 am
Exact same thought here! Geaux Tigers!
Monie On Monday, October 1 at 12:37 pm
How fun! I only wish there were come clip-on options…the 'convertors' that are out there just don't work for me.
Dana On Monday, October 1 at 1:20 pm
You have to give all of your information just to be able to look at the site. Not cool
bobbie On Monday, October 1 at 5:24 pm
I was able to look at the site, and play at designing with no problem, but to "save" your creations, you must register. I did, and was told I'd be getting a confirmation email ~ never did. then I logged on, saved a few designs, but when I went back to look at them, they were gone!
Wonderful, but frustrating site!!
Sondra On Tuesday, October 2 at 11:46 am
I agree. I don't want to give my information just to look at a website. I guess I'll never know how cool her jewelry is. I don't need more emails.
Kim in Nebraska On Monday, October 1 at 1:31 pm
Oh No!! Just what I didn't need, another fun way to waste my time – haha. Thanks for sharing
Mary P On Monday, October 1 at 1:51 pm
Oh my – be glad you don't have high-speed because you could seriously spend hours on this site!! So happens that I'm going to Christmas in Cowtown in Ft. Worth this week and Kendra Scott Jewelry is one of the merchants that will be there – I'll check out the quality and let you know!
Jenni R. On Monday, October 1 at 2:04 pm
This so soooo cool! I have 4 kids so one of the necklaces with 4 stones would be great to have with the birthstone color. Even though they are all practically the same color! 3 March and 1 December. lol
lauren moore On Monday, October 1 at 2:04 pm
I wish I had the spending money to make and buy, like, 7!!!!!
Danielle On Monday, October 1 at 2:13 pm
Love Kendra Scott! I live in Austin a few blocks away from her signature store on S. Congress so I have a few pieces! The jewelry is a little expensive but she has a trunk sale about twice a year where you can get some great pieces for less.
A comment on the heaviness of the earrings: They sell these special backings for a few extra bucks that help support everything. I'm not sure if they are available online, but if you call the store I'm sure they will tell you where you can get them. Also she just came out with the Elle's a smaller version of the Danielle's that are prefect!
melissa On Monday, October 1 at 2:32 pm
Yes I own a pair of earrings! The quality is outstanding. Love all her stuff!
Toni Yancer On Monday, October 1 at 2:35 pm
I live in Austin as well and have several pieces of her jewelry and would agree with the comment made above about the smaller version Elle's…my son gave his girlfriend some of these for her birthday and were a huge hit!! Kendra is also a amazing woman…I have heard her speak on several ocacsions and her story is incredible! Hope you go get a piece of her jewelry!!
Travis Cotton On Monday, October 1 at 2:37 pm
That's pretty cool!
Ashley On Monday, October 1 at 3:02 pm
Howdy from Austin, Texas.
There is a Kendra Scott store here and her stuff is all the rage here! Most of my friends wear her stuff….everyday!
I have 2 pairs of earrings and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them! Great quality.
Allison K. On Monday, October 1 at 3:14 pm
I have been looking at her earrings for a while now, and finally broke down and bought 2 pair last week. The quality is great and I absolutely love them. I have worn them a couple of times and get numerous compliments on them. I already have picked out another pair.
Dawn On Monday, October 1 at 3:31 pm
Wow! How fun is that! Earrings are my weakness for sure!
Shawna On Monday, October 1 at 3:36 pm
If all the right birthstones are there, these would be great for gifts for moms – just select each child's birthstone and put them in a nice pattern!
hrl On Monday, October 1 at 3:42 pm
I have the oval ones in black. The make me feel fancy when I'm wearing them and really dress up a casual outfit. They're a little pricey but I wear mine often.
Lisa Curry On Monday, October 1 at 3:49 pm
If you live in Texas(and are hip and cool) you must own at least one pair of Kendra Scott's earrings. She also makes beautiful bracelets and earrings. What I love about her line is it goes from very simple to simply outrageous. Just depends what you are looking for!
Some of her pieces are heavy so your earlobes must be able to substantiate the weight.
I love Kendra like I love Pioneer Woman…just for different reasons!
Stephanie in Austin On Monday, October 1 at 4:34 pm
She is a local gal from here in Austin. She also has a store in Austin as well, if you are ever in the area. Be warned….her earrings (at least the Danielle earring) are heavy. I had to return the pair I purchased on-line. She now makes a smaller version, as some earlier posts mentioned. You can also buy some of her line @ Nordstrom. They have free shipping & returns on-line as well, which makes shopping very easy.
Anya On Monday, October 1 at 4:40 pm
That website looks awesome!! Unfortunately I can't check it out, I can't get the right program on my android phone
Connie Pruitt On Monday, October 1 at 4:53 pm
Oh so pretty!
Rebecca On Monday, October 1 at 5:19 pm
This may not be a good thing for my budget.

I am not sure that I should be thanking your for this post or not! Love it!
Darian On Monday, October 1 at 5:55 pm
I live in Austin and am a huge fan! Love her jewelry and I give it as gifts!
Ana On Monday, October 1 at 5:59 pm
So beautiful, and so much fun!
Marta On Monday, October 1 at 8:09 pm
Thank you for sharing! Great idea for Christmas gifts!
Jessica Johnson On Monday, October 1 at 8:48 pm
Loveeeeee Kendra Scott jewelry! Not only is it beautiful, but great quality also! I bought a pair for each of bridesmaids and they wore them at my wedding- 1 month ago today in fact!
Katy I. On Monday, October 1 at 9:02 pm
So pretty!! If I had the $$$ to spend that would be an addicting website!!!!!
Peggy C On Monday, October 1 at 9:39 pm
They look like stained glass!! So pretty!!
Maria Castro On Monday, October 1 at 9:43 pm
I ADORE Kendra Scott I have several earrings and the quality is great!!!
ranchmama On Monday, October 1 at 10:31 pm
One thing for certain, I'm not showing these to my daughter. She loves earrings and always wears several…
Angela Bae On Monday, October 1 at 10:31 pm
Ah! You're truly combining all of my loves! Kendra Scott is great! Her stuff is at Nordstrom and I live close to her Beverly Hills location. The color bar in the store is so much fun- huge flat screen tv. Earrings are great and so are bracelets!!
Brittney On Monday, October 1 at 10:40 pm
Ill be honest about the quality, things aren't always as heavy duty as I'd like them to be but for the price and lootheir is outstanding. but it is SO much better than generic costume jewelry. It will be better quality than Forever 21 by far, closer To Stella & Dot in quality. I don't think the pieces are solid gold, but gold plated.
The Danielle earrings are the most popular and I really highly recommend the white opal pearl, blue lapis, and turquoise.
Kendra Scott's back story is so inspirational and she is a charitable, remarkable woman. Her husband was unemployed and she took a few hundred bucks, had her designs made into samples, and sold them to a few boutiques. Now she has numerous boutiques all over the country and tons of celebrities wearing her stuff. Hilary Duff is a huge fan and Sofia Vergara (can't spell) is always wearing her stuff on Modern Family.
Kate On Monday, October 1 at 11:12 pm
uh huh, if you were really sorry you wouldn't do it! I'm not going! But fun for bridesmaids I think
Anne On Tuesday, October 2 at 3:12 am
I can't recommend them enough. She's from Austin, so is quite popular in Austin and Dallas. The quality is very good for costume jewelry – the stones have some weight to them and the construction is good. As with any plated jewelry, it eventually will get worn off but that's why they cost less than solid gold.
I recently used the color bar for our wedding and put the same color scheme in Gwen for the bride, Jeanine for bridesmaids, and Keane for the house party. Everyone loved the gifts and being able to have consistent colors across different earrings was wonderful. They come in lovely little blue boxes and gift bags ready to give as gifts.
I would recommend using the view that shows the earring on a model. Some of them are much larger than you think. But she's also started offering smaller versions of the most popular styles.
Hope @ Fairhope Supply Co. On Tuesday, October 2 at 8:30 am
Pretty – shiny – flirty – lovely.
Susan On Tuesday, October 2 at 8:57 am
Whenever I see things like this, I find myself wondering "why didn't I think of this?" Great idea. Love the blues.
elz On Tuesday, October 2 at 9:04 am
Her earrings are great. I have several pairs, and also some of her necklaces, and…I may have a problem. Her earrings tend to be a bit heavy, so you may want to get those earlobe saver thingys. I love all her pieces and get compliments every time I wear them. Plus, she's a Texas girl, gotta love that!
Natalie On Tuesday, October 2 at 1:02 pm
Her jewelry is incredible and VERY well made. A great investment if you ask me. (My friend Kate introduced me to her stuff and I'm pretty sure she owns the whole line!)
Cyn Mackley On Tuesday, October 2 at 4:54 pm
Unfortunately, I can't seem to view the website unless I sign up for a mailing list. That really turns me off as a consumer.
America T. On Tuesday, October 2 at 7:12 pm
OH! – talk about major trouble if i hang around designing on this new web-site for too long! lol – i'd have a bill to pay that would take years!
– Do a give-away for us Ree, please?
jeanne On Tuesday, October 2 at 8:50 pm
What fun! Love it! But you're right – expensive!
Meagan @ A Zesty Bite On Wednesday, October 3 at 8:31 am
I am actually wearing a pair of her earring's today! The quality is absolutely fantastic and the earrings are so fun!
Lindsay On Wednesday, October 3 at 1:04 pm
I have the Danielle earrings in the white mother of pearl and gold trim. I adore them!! I literally wore them everyday for a week when I first got them and I wear them every chance I get. They seem to go with everything and will dress any outfit up. I get lots of compliments on them! They are a little heavy, but to me that means they are excellent quality and will last for a long time. I'm already dreaming of owning them in several more colors!
Emily On Wednesday, October 3 at 1:17 pm
Aw, MAN! I was going to get work done today! Now I am going to design earrings!
Katy V On Wednesday, October 3 at 1:25 pm
My son (7) and I had a blast designing everything on there! He now insists that he wants to get me one of his designs for Christmas.
Amber Billingsley On Wednesday, October 3 at 10:10 pm
I have an ADDICTION to Kendra Scott!!! I LOVE her earrings and am building quiet the collection… Even better… she has FREE shipping from NOW until Midnight on Columbus Day!!!
Aisha On Thursday, October 4 at 11:41 am
Hi Ree!!! I've been a Pioneer Woman fan for years and I am overjoyed that you're featuring Kendra Scott on your website!!! I live in Austin and the retail store here has an amazing color bar that lets you have all the fun of customizing the color of your jewelry in person! GREAT FEATURE!!
Lara Patton On Thursday, October 4 at 12:17 pm
LOVE the Kendra Scott Color Bar!! Some of the styles can be heavier but she sells Lobe Wonders at all of her store and they take so much of the weight off! They are super cheap too – just 6 bucks! Taking a work break now to go play!

I was gifted my first pair of kendra earrings 2 years ago and they are still one of my favorite pieces to wear! I store them in the sachet that comes with each piece of jewelry and the metal and stones are still so beautiful. I highly recommend this jewelry line!

Great cap for a vintage look
By Sobes.
from Vancouver, BC
I commute to work most days in the Pacific Northwest and found that I couldn't see well with my clear lensed glasses in the winter. A friend suggested I wear a hat. Tried a running hat initially and it worked well, but the adjustment strap at the back cut into my head from the pressure of my helmet. I decided to try these because they are elasticized and the brim was a bit shorter which would improve my vision. I'm very happy with them. Only downside is because they are cotton your forehead can get a bit cold when you work up a sweat.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Practical and nostalgic caps
By Pedal-er in Brooklyn
from Brooklyn, NY
Having watched professional cycling in the '70s and '80s, I enjoy these caps, of which I have 3. The good thing--other than nostalgic value--is that I can wear them (under a helmet, of course) in all kinds of weather: when it's cold, the cap protects my head from the wind without overheating like heavier materials; when it's warm, I can wear one under my helmet to soak up sweat from my entire head, better than a strip of material across my forehead. My riding partner won't wear them in warm weather, as he finds they cut down on ventilation. However, they are light enough that I don't find that to happen. They also happen to wash well (by hand) and are pretty durable.
The Perfect Fit
By Tee
from DeKalb, IL
About Me Casual/ Recreational
A nice causal piece. It fits well, extremely colorful, and stylish. When riding, it soak up most of the moisture and allows me to ride hard with little or no sweat running dripping into my eyes.
Works okay
By Sampson
from Denver, CO
(Brooklyn) I got this hat to be used as a sweat barrier under my helmet. I got sick of sweat dripping in my eyes. It fits pretty good, my head is small so it's slightly loose on the top. I have used the hat once and I like it. It did the job I expected. I'll be using it all summer to see how effective it really is. I like that I can also keep the messy helmet look covered when I stop for a break, etc. Easily washable it seems. Breathable, thin material. Works great so far.

Fits and looks great
By VerusX
from Tucson
Feels great on my head, the top is roomy on my bald head but not too big and elastic holds comfortably. I always wear a cap under my helmet and these are my favorites. The head sweats breathe better but are too tight.

-- Democratic talking points would have you believe Republican over-performance in early voting in the NV-02 special election is nothing out of the ordinary. In reality, Republican voters are giving former state Sen. Mark Amodei a big, perhaps insurmountable lead, and Democrats paying close attention to the race are resigned to their apparent fate. The DCCC has sent field operatives, but their absence from the airwaves tells the more accurate story. -- And have Republicans been focusing their efforts on the wrong special election fight? The Nevada race appears to be swinging heavily towards Amodei. The NRCC and American Crossroads combined have put more than $850,000 in the race to boost Amodei, but could those funds have been used better in the NY-09 special election, where Obama's ratings are underwater? Even if Republicans come close in this Brooklyn-Queens district, where Democrats have a 133,000 voter registration edge, it could signal a problem in 2012 for Democrats down-ballot even in Democrat-leaning districts. -- Whoever wins, one of the biggest losers in the race is Obama, who has been vilified by Turner and pushed to the side by Weprin. As Obama's approval rating in the district plummets, the Turner campaign seems increasingly intent on tying Weprin to the president. -- It seems increasingly likely that both parties will split the 2011 gubernatorial races 2-2. Still, the DGA might be able to claim something of a victory if Mississippi Democrat Johnny DuPree ends up outperforming Kentucky Republican David Williams. It's not impossible. No Democrat in Mississippi has ever drawn less than 42 percent in a gubernatorial race, and if current polling is to be believed, Williams is by no means assured of hitting that mark himself. -- Be careful what you wish for. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, questioned why he didn't receive more media coverage, before saying he thought he had plenty of media coverage and now some of his more controversial positions are under a national spotlight. Anderson Cooper questioned Paul about his opposition to FEMA on Tuesday night and Connecticut Democratic Gov. Dan Malloy called Paul an "idiot" for taking such a stance on Wednesday morning while speaking to Christine Romans.

The Corps, which has jurisdiction over wetlands, will hold an informational meeting on the Tristar proposal from 2-8 p.m. Aug. 25 at Hazelwood City Hall. A spokesman for the Corps says there is little chance that a public hearing will be held, however. In the past, the agency has routinely granted requisite permits for developers to build in the floodplains of St. Louis County, even though the projects can be interpreted as being in violation of the Section 404 of the U.S. Clean Water Act. Under the federal law, non-water-dependent projects are supposed to be located outside the floodplain if any alternative location exists.
In this instance, the state TIF law is promoting the development of a floodplain, which counteracts provisions of the Clean Water Act that seek to place limits on such projects. The director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is on record as being opposed to further floodplain development, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is specifically opposed to the Tristar proposal.
"They (the Corps) have to show that these people have absolutely no alternative but to build this in this environmentally sensitive area," says Rick Hansen, an agent for the Fish and Wildlife Service. "Cumulatively, there has been little regard on how you add all this stuff up with the casinos and Page Avenue and the Howard Bend levee district and development in St. Charles County," says Hansen. "Is this stuff getting out of hand?"
From Hansen's vantage point, he has to wonder just whose hands are at work. On a visit to the development site earlier this year, the Fish and Wildlife agent observed waterfowl in a wetland that had been designated as cropland. An interagency dispute developed over whether to change the designation. Since then the argument has become a moot point, in part because someone has attempted to pull the plug on this particular wetlands debate by digging a ditch approximately 15 feet wide and 3 feet deep.
After the meeting with property owners at the Tristar offices, Chapman muses over the future of the Park 370 development and the state's TIF law. "The bottom line is that the property in and of itself cannot afford to pay for certain public infrastructure work," he says. "Once you put an interchange in, the county wants all of its roads upgraded for the traffic it will handle. Bridgeton wants all of its roads upgraded for the traffic it will handle. You've got property that doesn't have any kind of utility or street system to be able to attract people in who want to build buildings, buildings like we have in Earth City, and I've been here for 10 years.
"You know, the TIF laws right, wrong or indifferent probably have been abused. I personally don't think we're doing it in this case, but it's not a matter of individual municipalities, because it's a state constitutional issue. It needs to be changed by our Legislature. That's where these energies need to be focused. Is the TIF legislation perfect? Hell, no. Will it ever be perfect? Probably not. Will it always change? I'm sure of it. It's like everything else. You put something in place that you think is a good tool. Someone figures out how to abuse the tool. You try to fix the tool. The tool gets abused. You fix the tool or you eliminate the tool."
Farmers in the Missouri Bottoms, like farmers elsewhere, are accustomed to using different kinds of tools: plows, tractors, combines. But the argument in Hazelwood over TIF has mandated that the people who till the ground now use implements of another kind. Under the August sun, a farmer sits on the tailgate of his pickup truck as his barefoot daughters play nearby. His wife interrupts his conversation, beckoning him to take refuge in the shade of the front porch, but he ignores her plea. His callused hands continue to thumb through a stack of legal papers, which chronicle the bitter dispute that is now being fought out in the courts. He mentions that depositions of Hazelwood city officials are being taken on this day, and he speaks with disdain of one of his neighbors. The threat of development has already changed something here; a certain fragile trust has been violated, and it may never be mended. One way or the other, things in the Missouri Bottoms will never be the same.
From Rita Wurm's perspective, things that aren't broke don't need fixing. "We're not standing in the way of progress," she says. "We're just trying to preserve a way of life. They talk about all their tax dollars and everything, (that) there have to be these redevelopment projects to compete with the communities around us. Why do we have to compete? The more built up and commercialized it becomes, the more people are saying, "This isn't for me.' Why can't they just let it be a community where there is still green space, where you can still take your children to watch the wild geese?"

I go to Hunter College so it is one of the few diners nearby that had a good menu. The food over all is okay. I been there a couple of times and so far the waitresses were nice to me. I often see alot of families grabbing brunch which is the type of atmosphere i enjoy. So over all, a cute little place. I would bring my boyfriend or friend there to munch on brunch.

With the end of Lost comes another end for actor Jorge Garcia: the loss of his precious Chihuahua Nunu.
Garcia, who played Hugo/Hurley on the series, posted to his blog, Dispatches from the Island, to announce the sad news on Monday.
"It breaks my heart to tell you that yesterday as we were preparing to all go to the airport Nunu was struck by a car as she crossed the street," Garcia wrote. "She died in my arms."
Garcia, who was not available for comment, chronicled Nunu's adventures frequently on the blog, posting photos of his black-and-brown "chiweenie" chewing on toys, sheets, and sometimes even Garcia's nose. Garcia wrote that in 2005, he had been thinking about rescuing a dog from a Hawaii Humane Society, but a stop at a local pet shop brought about a change of plans. It seems his heart couldn't resist little Nunu.
Sadly, after five years, the friendship has come to a physical end.
"We are burying her in the Pet Garden at Valley of the Temple in Kaneohe," Garcia wrote. "Nunu hated the water so we couldn't bring ourselves to having her ashes scattered in the ocean. Three months from now you'll be able to find a bronze plaque inscribed with just her name there. If you'd like to leave a flower or a toy, I'm sure she'd love it."
Leave your condolences for Jorge in the comments below.

TUPPER LAKE - An investigation involving several area law enforcement agencies is ongoing after an armed suspect robbed a Community Bank in Tupper Lake.
New York State Bureau of Criminal Investigation Captain Robert LaFountain told reporters April 10 that a white male approximately 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing 150 pounds entered the Community Bank at the corner of Hosley Avenue and Park Street around noon Friday.
"At approximately 12:15 p.m. Friday, the New York State Police received a report of an armed bank robbery which occurred at the Community Bank in the town of Tupper Lake," LaFountain said.
"State police personnel, along with our law enforcement partners the Tupper Lake Police Department, the Saranac Lake Police Department and New York State Forest Rangers responded to the scene. We remain on scene conducting interviews and conducting a search of the area for evidence and looking for the suspect."
The man was wearing a Carhart jacket, a hooded sweatshirt, sunglasses and what appeared to be a fake mustache and goatee. LaFountain said he flashed a silver handgun at bank employees and told about a half dozen customers to get on the floor.
The village of Tupper Lake was still packed with state and village patrol vehicles at 7 p.m. April 10, although numerous roadblocks had been disassembled. Roadblocks had been set-up at the intersection of Route 3 and Route 30 in Tupper Lake, on Route 3 in Saranac Lake, and at the intersection of Route 30 and Route 86 in Paul Smiths.
Police conducted door-to-door interviews at homes in the immediate vicinity of the bank. Reports say the suspect fled on foot toward Old Wawbeek Road, in the direction of Saranac Lake.
LaFountain would not comment on how much money was taken.
"Right now, we aren't at liberty to say," he said. "But we are pursuing the investigation very seriously."

'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones', 'The World's End' and 'You're Next' fail to steal the first spot from Lee Daniels' movie in their first run.
"Lee Daniels' The Butler" remains unmoved over its current position at the North American box office. In its second week, the drama about a White House butler with such A-list stars as Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey is still the champ with another $16.5 million for The Weinstein Company.
Still as strong as "The Butler" is "We're the Millers". The raunchy comedy featuring Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis as fake couple holds on to the second spot at the chart after three weeks. This time around, Rawson Marshall Thurber's pic takes in $13 million for Warner Bros. Pictures.
"Butler" and "Millers" see no intense competition from new entries that are expected to score big numbers. Among the newcomers, "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" has the greatest debut. Awarded with a "B+" CinemaScore, the Lily Collins starrer bags $9.3 million.
Trailing behind the feature adaptation of Cassandra Clare's bestselling series is Edgar Wright's "The World's End", which is given a similar "B+" CinemaScore. From Focus Features, the sci-fi flick starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost opens to $8.8 million. Slasher pic "You're Next", meanwhile, debuts at No. 6 with $7 million and a poor "B-" CinemaScore.
Rounding up the top five is "Planes". The Disney animated film manages to get another $8.6 million in its third run. After expanding to more screens, Woody Allen's "Blue Jasmine" grabs a decent $3.9 million.

Re: Skiers and Safety
Yes, it was Natasha Richardson who just recently died of a head wound that she thought she recovered from..."Richardson, who fell during a private ski lesson Monday at a ski resort in Quebec, was seemingly fine afterward. But about an hour later she complained that she didn't feel well. The 45-year-old actress was hospitalized Tuesday in Montreal and later flown to a hospital in New York. Alan Nierob, the Los Angeles-based publicist for Richardson's husband, Liam Neeson, confirmed her death Wednesday without giving details on the cause."
Such a tragic loss that possibly could have been avoided by simply wearing a helmet! I know I would not do anything like that without a helmet! I only skied once and did not get off the bunny hill, but I had protection cause I can get crazy!

Brundle: Lewis 'crazy' to leave
Martin Brundle believes Lewis Hamilton would be 'crazy' to leave McLaren for Mercedes at the end of the season and has predicted he will sign a contract extension.
By William Esler
Last Updated: 23/09/12 2:01pm
Sky Sports F1 HD pundit Martin Brundle believes Lewis Hamilton would be 'crazy' to leave McLaren for Mercedes at the end of the season and has predicted he will sign a contract extension with the Woking outfit.
The 2008 World Champion, whose current deal with McLaren expires at the end of this season, has been repeatedly linked with a move to Mercedes in what has proved to be the saga of the summer.
With radical new engine regulations being introduced in 2014, a move to a works-supported team could prove beneficial, particularly after McLaren became a customer team for the first time in over two decades in 2010. However, Brundle believes that no matter how attractive the offer might appear to be, the grass wouldn't necessarily be greener at Mercedes.
"I'll jump off the fence and say he will stay at McLaren," Martin boldly declared during Sky F1's build-up to the Singapore Grand Prix.
"You can imagine that Ross Brawn, who has won a lot of World Championships and now has the might of Mercedes-Benz around him, would have made a very compelling case for Lewis to go there and what they could achieve in the future. I'm not surprised at all that Lewis would consider that very strongly indeed.
"Often you sign up for three years, so you have to look into the crystal ball and try to work out the best place to be is and it is very difficult as everyone is trying to sell it to you. But I think if you step back and look at it rationally he would be crazy to leave McLaren and they would be even more crazy to lose him. I'm pretty sure a deal will be done.
"They might be arguing over how long. Maybe Lewis doesn't want to settle down for three years, maybe he wants just one or two years and that might be a sticking point. They will give him a bit more commercial freedom and McLaren will up the ante. They cannot afford to lose the man who I believe the fastest man in Formula 1."
McLaren reportedly want to offer Hamilton a reduced wage compared to his current deal, which could explain the delay in agreeing a new deal. But according to Martin, who is no stranger to McLaren's working practices after being involved in contract negotiations with the team on behalf of David Coulthard and Gary Paffett, such brinkmanship is standard practice.
"There is no price list for a Formula 1 driver," he added.
"It is an open negotiation. It is supply and demand and that is why McLaren would have put out a few rumours, we are looking at Perez, we could have Raikkonen back and they played the game, they have been forced to play it out in public because of certain things that have happened, something they don't like to do. This has been a soap opera for Formula 1 - and a lot of fun really."
For his part, Hamilton has hinted that he is edging closer towards staying at McLaren, admitting in a pre-race interview with Sky Sports F1 that commercial rights were a key part of his prospective new deal.
"I'm constantly asked the question but there is just no more news that I can give at the moment. My guys are working very closely with Martin [Whitmarsh] and the marketing guys and all those kind of things. Working quite heavily. Everyone's working flat-out back with the management and the team."

MONTGOMERY COUNTY - A 13-year-old girl was arrested last night for allegedly making threats against the town of Splendora on Facebook.
According to Scott Engle, Montgomery County Precinct 4 Constables arrested the girl after launching an investigation into the threats. The messages threatened to kill everyone in the small town of Splendora on Sunday. The first messages popped up last week and quickly spread to students in the town.
Engle reports that investigators had a hard time getting information from Facebook, but that the social media site ended up providing contact information to them late Saturday night. They tracked the girl to a house in Northwest Harris County. The girl, who goes to school in Splendora, was staying with relatives.
The teen was arrested and taken to jail. A Harris County judge allowed the girl to be moved back to Montgomery County. Investigators reached out to the District Attorney's office, who accepted the charges of Terroristic Threat. Authorities say since the threat was against a group of people, it's being classified as a third degree felony.

Torche Gets Back Into Its Heavy Groove With Restarter

Willis was born and raised in University City's backyard, coming of age in the Richmond Heights neighborhoods of the county's central corridor. He spent his first year of high school at Maplewood Senior High and finished his education at a boarding school in Georgia. But St. Louis was in his blood, and to St. Louis he returned. "I came back and went to Wash. U.," Willis recalls. "I hung out at all the familiar hangouts -- Blueberry Hill, Cicero's."
Music was a constant in Willis' life. He took up the guitar at a young age, and though his rock and soul influences run the traditional gamut from the Beatles to Stevie Wonder to Santana, he was never pigeonholed in a particular genre of music. "My mother was a jazz singer, and I was brought up being able to appreciate and listen to all types of music," he says. "My training was a bit more multidimensional as a result."
Willis found a perfect multidimensional bedfellow in Frank Zappa. With compositions too complex to be punk and lyrics too subversive to be pop, Zappa's music circa 1977 ended up lodged in a purgatorial no man's land that countered the counter-culture. By the late '60s, his first band, the Mothers of Invention, had made a name for themselves by creating a half-satiric, half-psychedelic rock hybrid. For Billboard-balking souls repelled by Fleetwood Mac, unmoved by the Talking Heads and suffocated by the disco inferno of the late '70s, Zappa's mongrel music was the alternative.
The search for the ultimate rock amalgamation piqued Willis' curiosity: The then-twenty-year-old student arrived at the quad early that afternoon in '77 to "take notes from the master." On a leave of absence from the rigors of the political science and pre-law undergraduate track at Washington University, Willis hoped to glean a few tricks of the trade from Zappa himself. His hopes were more than realized. "We ended up meeting backstage after the sound check," Willis remembers. "We just hit it off."
That's an understatement. The next summer, Willis' phone rang: Zappa was on the other line, and he spoke the words that are every young guitar player's wet dream. "He ended up inviting me out to LA to audition for the band," Willis says. "When he called, I was just finishing up with summer school." He pauses for a moment, then laughs. "So I guess I'm still on a leave of absence from Wash. U. and a few credits shy of graduating."
By June of 1978, university life was a memory, and Willis was an official member of Zappa's band. He moved to Los Angeles, which was to be his home base for the next ten years, the last ten that Zappa toured. "It was great," Willis says, "scary but great. I was only 21, traveling all over the world and playing in front of thousands of people."
Even if you've never heard the music of Frank Zappa, his image comes to mind easily enough. Pictured as a wild-haired, mustached madcap with a glint in his eye that could spark madness or genius, he embodied his role as the ringmaster of one of rock & roll's great circuses. He was a prophet of satire, and his legacy lives on over 40 albums that span his three-decade career. The first album that Willis appeared on was the infamous 1979 release Joe's Garage. A concept album devised to make Americans take a good long look in the mirror, Joe's Garage is driven by Willis' mouth, though it's hard, even 25 years later, to swallow everything that comes out of it.
"Some things offend people," Willis says, defending the material. "The whole point is social commentary. The people who get offended are the people who carry themselves in the way we were satirizing. Frank got his material from newspapers, politicians, American life. This isn't something he made up.
"We live in America, and we do some pretty stupid things," he continues. "When someone like Reagan tried to get ketchup declared a vegetable -- well, that's pretty stupid."
It's clear that Ike Willis wasn't a puppet, onstage or in the studio. He was an active, contributing member of the community that formed around the band. He appears on just under 30 Zappa releases, most notably Joe's Garage and the 1984 mock-musical Thing-Fish. "I got my two cents in there a lot," Willis says, referring to the recording process. "It wasn't a matter of asking; it was just how Frank and I worked together. On some albums I had a lot more contribution than others."
The experience of living and working in such a freeform and accepting environment is an invaluable one for any musician. From Zappa, Willis learned how to be a professional performer.

I'm officially off the 4 Cycle Solution program – not because it didn't work (it did work), but because I felt that there was nothing more to be gained (for me, personally). Thanksgiving threw me off – I had no semblance of will power in the kitchen. This past weekend, I felt so entirely worn out that I was compelled to take a few days off from exercise. In combination with a handful of other factors (one in particular, which I discuss below), I ultimately decided to regroup and plan for a new approach to fat loss and health.
I felt that my body was telling me to take some time off from workout intensity at the level imposed by 4 Cycle Solution. I had hit a point of mental and physical exhaustion, having neither the focus or will power to grit through the workouts nor eat specific foods on a specific schedule. Plus, I've since discovered how much hungrier I was (which works against the notion of dietary stringency) when performing cardiovascular intervals three times per week.
[As an aside, today I started using Weight Loss Formula No. 1 by RealDose Nutrition. The reason for this? Despite my 15 pounds of weight loss with the 4 Cycle Solution program, I can't seem to eliminate the remnant baggage. My love handles just won't quit. I now believe this to be due to cortisol, which can be an undesirable physiological side effect of stress and anxiety, from which I suffer. Weight Loss Formula No. 1 targets specific hormones which lead to fat gain, and one of these is cortisol. So, my primary reason for using this supplement is to suppress cortisol release to see if this is truly the source of my everlasting love handles - those suckers are like cockroaches - they just won't die!]
This does not mean that I'm "throwing out the baby with the bath water". Summarily, I've accomplished everything that the program had asserted as possible, and I did not need the last couple weeks. Instead, my body demanded of me a stoppage from the action before the full 8 weeks had elapsed. Perhaps the reason for this is that I had exercised fairly consistently prior to beginning the program, and I hadn't taken time off for quite a while.
In any case, I lost a net of about 13 pounds. My lean muscle content is great, which tells me that I probably gained a couple pounds in muscle mass while losing about 15 pounds of fat and retained water.
Meanwhile [this is extremely important], I'm entirely confounded as to what-and-how to eat.
There is so much conflicting conjecture, propaganda, fact and fiction. Everyone has something to sell, something to promote.
More than anything, I want to be healthy, but I believe that I can be healthy on the inside while also appearing "healthy" by virtue of great muscle content and low body fat. I just have to find the right nutritional calibrations. As for exercise, there are a million different ways to exercise effectively.
I'm convinced that the primary variable for physical appearance is nutrition, more so than the specifics of our exercise programs.
I'm not discounting exercise. I'm simply saying that there is much more "margin for error" in the gym than in the kitchen, in my opinion.
The primary reason for my "kitchen confusion" right now stems from a very recent book recommendation. I purchased the book, and I'm about ready to scrap everything I thought I knew about nutrition and begin a brand new approach.
I'm just over halfway through the book, and hope to finish it today.
My objective is to have a brand new nutritional roadmap lined up, complete with a pantry-and-fridge overhaul, by the beginning of next week.
More to come soon. I'm excited, but a bit nervous overall. There is a lot of information (backed by years of research) in this book that flies in the face of conventional American dietary belief, so it is something of a "leap of faith".
I feel compelled to make the change for a single, over-arching reason:
I do not feel healthy!
Even after eating as instructed, in accord with the 4 Cycle Solution program, I still don't feel as well as I think I should. I'm somewhat sluggish and full of aches and pains. From what I've read in this book so far, I now have every reason to believe that these deficiencies are directly related to how I've been eating. In fact, I've been eating poorly all my life because so many of my favorite foods (those that are popular in America, and even most of the recommendations of our beloved FDA) are toxic!
Again, I will report back as I continue to learn. Meanwhile, I will continue to hit the gym (my basement) as assiduously as ever, with the intention of posting my workouts each day.
I suggest you grab a copy of this book – it may change your life too:

Cultural Competence Academy (CCA)
The UNLV Cultural Competence Academy (CCA) will provide a series of workshops, seminars, and training sessions designed to provide opportunities for members of the UNLV collegiate community to develop the knowledge, skills and awareness related to cultural issues and working with diverse populations.

The target audience for the CCA includes, but is not limited to, individuals in decision making positions, current and future search committee members, and those wishing to engage in dialogue that serves as a catalyst for continued and future growth in the area of cultural competence.
The goal of the academy is to provide a balanced curriculum that meets the variety of skill and interest levels of the target audience, presented by speakers of the highest quality who represent the diversity of the UNLV collegiate community.
The topics for the CCA include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following:
- Awareness – Awareness is consciousness of one's personal reactions to people who are different
- Attitude – An examination of one's own beliefs and values about cultural differences.
- Knowledge – The consistency with value and belief systems about equality and one's actions.
- Skills – The practice of cultural competence, including gestures and other non-verbal communication.
What is Cultural Competence?
Cultural competence is a set of congruent behaviors, attitudes and policies that come together in a system, agency or professional and enable that system, agency or professional to work effectively in cross-cultural situations.
Culture: implies the integrated pattern of human behavior that includes thought, communication, actions, customs, beliefs, values and institutions of a racial, ethnic, religious or social group.
Competence: implies having the capacity to function effectively.
Culturally Competent System: acknowledges and incorporates–at all levels–the importance of culture, the assessment of cross-cultural relations, vigilance towards the dynamics that result from cultural differences, the expansion of cultural knowledge and the adaptation of services to meet culturally unique needs.

SOUTH WILLIAMSON, Ky - A Crab Orchard man who works in the area has been missing since last Saturday and his family is asking the public's help.
Christina Daniels said her husband, Stevie Daniels, works at a construction company during the week and stays at the Sweet Dreams Suites in Goody. He had called her after he arrived at the hotel Saturday night, shortly after 9 p.m.
"He said he was walking down by the river," Daniels told the Daily News. "He doesn't smoke in the room, so he sometimes walked down there to smoke. He said he was going to go to the room and shower, and wait for me to call him back."
However, when Christina Daniels called her husband, he did not answerr. She said the men whom he shared a room with did not see him that night either.
"They told me they kept waiting for him to come back, his car was still parked at the hotel," she said. "But he didn't come back."
Stevie Daniels' belongings were left in the hotel room as well, she said.
Christina said she and her husband spoke often throughout the day and night by telephone.
"He called me all the time," she said. "He called me every morning at 3:30, because he knows that's when I get up. We were talking about the weekend, when he was coming home. He wanted me to take some time off work for us to spend together."
The Daniels have three sons, one of whom was out of town, participating in a wrestling tournament.
"We had been on the phone a lot, talking about that," she said. "We were waiting for the results of that, and then suddenly he was gone."
Christina said he oldest son came to the hotel Monday morning when Kentucky State Police came to investigate, and that Stevie's clothes and car were still at Suite Dreams. The only thing missing was his wallet and his cell phone, she said.
The Daily News was unable to obtain any information from KSP.
Stevie Daniels is 6 feet tall, with brown hair and blue eyes, and weighs approximately 165 pounds. He was last seen wearing a red hoodie, jeans and sandals. If anyone has any information about his whereabouts, please call the Kentucky State Police at 606 433-7711.

Dorset police responded "appropriately" to threats made by Rev John Suddards' killer Stephen Farrow
Posted: February 05, 2013|
A POLICE force has found it did nothing wrong in its investigation of threatening text messages sent by the man who murdered Thornbury reverend John Suddards.
Homeless drifter Stephen Farrow, 48, is serving two life sentences for stabbing the 59-year-old former vicar of St Mary's Church, and retired teacher Betty Yates, 77, in Worcestershire.
During his trial at Bristol Crown Court last year, it emerged that Dorset police had been alerted to threatening text messages sent by Farrow to Michaela Rowsell, whom he met in spring 2011 when she was helping the homeless at an evangelical church in Bridport, Dorset.
In a text message he said: "As you reject me, you will suffer. I will be just round the corner and you will never know when I will be there."
On New Year's Eve 2011, shortly before Mrs Yates was found dead, he texted: "I've already started my work and won't stop 'til I'm caught.
"You will soon know the truth and the church will be the first to suffer and I don't lie about what is about to happen. You can all go to hell. Watch the news, Piggy, because you will know it was me."
Ms Rowsell called the police, who looked into her complaint. Farrow, who was by then in Worcestershire, was not arrested at that time.
Dorset police carried out an internal review and found it had responded "appropriately" and no misconduct had been identified on the part of any officer.
In a statement, the force said: "An internal investigation has been completed and the force has concluded that Dorset police responded appropriately given the information available at the time."
Mrs Yates was found dead at her cottage on January 3 last year, while Mr Suddards was found dead in his vicarage last Valentine's Day.
