West Sumatra
West Sumatra
Much of its highland is formed by the Bukit Barisan Mountain range; virgin jungles inhabited by elephants, tigers, leopards and rhinos. Minang people have spicy-hot dishes and ancient matriarchal customs. The women own property and the men leave home to seek their fame and fortune. Traveling is considered a mark of success, Padang restaurants are found in all major towns across the nation. The people are hospitable and eloquent. They primarily speak bahasa Minang, with poetic style of speech.
Getting There : Padang's Tabing Airport is the main gateway to West Sumatra and is serviced by Merpati Nusantara Airlines. PELNI's ship "Kerinci" sails every two weeks for Jakarta from Teluk Bayur Harbour. Smaller vessels from Muara Harbour sail to small towns along the entire west coast of Sumtra. Regular bus services run between Padang, Bukittinggi and other major cities of Sumatra, as well as via the trans-Sumatra Highway to Jakarta. West Sumatra days are filled with colorful ceremonies and festivals. Legend of the Minangkabau is descendants of the youngest son of Alexander the Great, King Maharjo Dirajo. During the early 19th century, the area was disrupted by wars between the followers of the traditional Islam or Padris, and those adhering to the traditional law (Adat) of the Minangkabau.

BEIJING (Caixin Online) — The economic slowdown has led to a search for growth opportunities. Urbanization is being raised as a possibility for China's economy. It could be but not in the context being discussed. The country's growth in the future depends on raising productivity. Urbanization, if structured efficiently, could help in that regard.
Urbanization as an untapped resource is not available. When one travels through the countryside, it is apparent that old folks and children dominate.
There isn't a big and untapped source of workers in their prime available for migration. The maximum source of labor available for migration is the children growing up to join their parents who already work in cities. It may add 1.5% to the existing urban population, similar to the natural growth rate in many countries and hardly a torrent requiring massive resources for building new cities and expanding existing ones.
Caixin is a Beijing-based media group dedicated to providing high-quality and authoritative financial and business news and information through periodicals, online and TV/video programs.
• Get the Caixin e-newsletter
The National Bureau of Statistics reports that China had 9.8 billion square meters of property under construction in October, of which 4.8 billion was residential.
China is building roughly 50 Hong Kongs. Compare this to the requirements for urbanization and overbuilding is apparent. So it is high risk to pursue urbanization per se for juicing up gross domestic product growth. It will lead to bigger debt crises down the road.
How Will Tier Three Cities Succeed?
The 2008 stimulus catapulted a massive construction boom in tier three cities. Property developers poured funds into them, believing that the lower land prices were an arbitrage opportunity relative to tier one cities. The land sales revenues pumped up their fiscal revenues and increased local purchasing power for properties.
So many have become used to this model that they have no plan B and are now just waiting for the bubble to return. Unfortunately, China's property market has made a historic turn in 2012. The odds are that land prices will decline for five years or even forever, as the demographic burst follows the post-bubble adjustment, just like in Japan.
For a period, the arbitrage seemed to be working. Unfortunately, it was a self-fulfilling bubble. As the funds inflow slows, purchasing power declines too. This is why the property sales in tier three cities have dropped so dramatically.
Some local governments blame property-tightening policies for their troubles. But, such policies are not in force in tier three cities. If one looks closer, a lack of competitive industries is to blame.
Why would people pay lots of money for a property in a city without good job opportunities? China's villages are like small cities anyway. Housing has no cost there. So, if one is left without much to do, staying in a village is a better choice.
Small cities must survive on some industries that are competitive in the global economy. That is how such cities in Europe or the United States survive. Some cities are merely company towns, depending on a single firm. When the company loses competitiveness, the whole town loses viability. This is why there are ghost towns everywhere.
Living on building a city itself means building ghost cities to begin with. It is happening in China because the financial system is government-owned and credit allocation is heavily influenced by political considerations. Still, if there is enough money to build a city, how will it survive afterwards?
The Changsha model
In a property market downturn, Changsha is selling more than any other city. Why is this tier two city able to do this? The reasons are that its industries are competitive, growing and attracting more workers, and its property prices never went crazy and are close to two months of salary per square meter.
Apple controls release of iPad Mini in China
Apple is requiring Chinese customers who want to buy a Wi-Fi iPad Mini to participate in an online lottery for the chance. But most of the buyers at an Apple store in Beijing appeared to be making their purchases on behalf of scalpers.
Affordable prices and booming industries support the property market there. The property market can only follow, not lead an economy.
A decade ago, I wrote that Wuhan could be China's Chicago because I anticipated the gradual migration of industries up the Yangtze River. I failed to recognize the industrial dynamism in Changsha. Then, it was small compared to Wuhan, but it is now comparable in GDP and fiscal revenue.
Its success is due to its focus on industrial development. Now it is in a virtuous cycle. Successful factories attract others. The self-feeding process will turn it into one of the largest industrial bases in China.
In contrast to Changsha, many cities have relied on high and rising property prices to grow the economy because they turn bank loans into fiscal revenues and household income, which in turn turns into property demand.
So many have become used to this model that they have no plan B and are now just waiting for the bubble to return. Unfortunately, China's property market has made a historic turn in 2012. The odds are that land prices will decline for five years or even forever, as the demographic burst follows the post-bubble adjustment, just like in Japan.
The future is megacities
China's growth potential is in raising productivity. The country's per capita income was $6,000 in 2012, of which about 40% was household disposable income. Compared to $40,000 to $50,000 in per capita income and 75% of it as household disposable income in developed countries, China has a long way to go.
Many experts argue that China has not exhausted its demographic dividend or room for urbanization and, hence, could grow like in the past. This really misses the point. The past is over. But the future could be brighter if one recognizes reality.
Raising productivity cannot be planned like building infrastructure. It happens as the market system optimizes the allocation of resources like capital and labor. Both are now beholden to the government. Hence, growth revival requires China to shift from the government to a market-led growth model. Reform, not more investment in the same stuff, is the key to reviving growth.

Image from the Humane Society of St. Lucie County who is promoting businesses to foster kittens as a way of helping office workers de-stress as well as help the Fort Pierce shelter with their fostering program.
Robin Fitzgerald, a cat care technician with the Humane Society of St. Lucie County, plays with one of the two-and-a-half-week-old kittens who are available for fostering with her litter mates and mother at the Fort Pierce shelter Wednesday. The Humane Society is reaching out to businesses to become âfoster officesâ for unweaned kittens, a commitment that will last less than a month. "Animals are known to be effective de-stressors," said Rita Hart, marketing and outreach coordinator for HSSLC. "These tiny creatures can be kept in a crate during the day in an office setting, with co-workers taking turns bottle-feeding them and taking them home each night." In addition, all expenses will be paid by the Humane Society of St. Lucie County. For more information, please contact Jackie Lyman, shelter manager at (772) 461-0687, ext. 229.

I have to tell you, I'm not happy with the Mayans. My whole game plan was based on the idea that they knew what they were talking about, and last December 21 was game over. Instead I had to do a lot of rushed last-minute Christmas shopping on Dec. 22.
And it leaves 2013 a fresh, blank slate. Another year on planet Earth. Another year in which to face the slings and arrows of Wall Street and the known knowns, known unknowns and unknown unknowns of the world of money.
Other people will tell you the most popular investments for 2013. They will quote endless strings of portfolio managers and financial advisers telling you to jump on the bandwagon for bonds, or dividends, or real estate investment trusts.
Here? We're all about the bad news. The more interesting question isn't what does everyone love, but what does everyone hate. You'll never make money chasing the crowd. You might make it by scooping up an unloved asset — especially if, as so often happens, the crowd changes its mind and the asset comes back into fashion.
So, what are the world's most hated investments for 2013? Here are five.
British stocks
The London stock market is the fourth biggest in the world, with an estimated $3 trillion worth of stocks and many of the world's biggest companies — from oil giants BP and Royal Dutch Shell to megabank HSBC and commodities giant Rio Tinto. But apparently nobody's interested.
According to the latest survey of worldwide money managers conducted by Merrill Lynch/Bank of America, your average big money investor would rather suck a lemon than buy a stock in London. The British market ranked dead last of the big equity regions, with a net 21% of money managers underweight. That's one of the biggest underweight ratings for the UK market on record.
The main concern: Worry about the sluggish British economy, which only struggled last year out of its second recession in five years (even though that's largely irrelevant to London-based multinational megacaps like Rio Tinto or BP).
The London market trades at about twelve times forecast per-share earnings for the next 12 months, according to FactSet. It sports a dividend yield of about 3%. U.S. investors can own it by simply buying the iShares MSCI United Kingdom index fund EWU, -1.88% .
Japanese stocks
Back in the 1980s, when Japan was conquering the world, all sorts of Westerners — from businesspeople to rock stars — dreamed of becoming "big in Japan." These days nobody is big in Japan. Not even the Japanese.
Why January is special for stocks?
Just how special is January for investors? Mark Hulbert joins Markets Hub to discuss January's historical gains.
Until the 2011 tsunami, most Western money managers had pretty much forgotten Japan even existed. The Nikkei stock market is now in the third decade of what many people are calling the longest bear market in history, although technically Italy, as an entity, has been in a bear market since the death of Marcus Aurelius in A.D. 180.
According to the Merrill Lynch survey, managers are only slightly less bearish on Japan than they are on the U.K.

CLEVELAND - A strong cold front brought rain and falling temperatures to the Cleveland area on Tuesday.
The front moved through Tuesday afternoon bringing about a half inch of rain to many locations across northern Ohio. This same front brought heavy rains and snows to parts of the western U.S. over the weekend.
Temperaturestooka tumble during the day from an early high in the low 60s to temperatures in the low 40s by evening.
The rain made for a sloppy rush hour commuteas fog further reduced visibilities to under a mile in downtown Cleveland and two and half miles in action by4 p.m.
WKYC Chief Meteorologist Betsy Kling says temperatures will be much more seasonable on Wednesday with near normal highs in the low 40s.

Honestly, I am not much for the reading of romances. I worked as an editor before joining the Navy and, because I had to edit romance novels, I asked a friend which romance writer was the best. She told me of Nora Roberts and I read one (uno, un, onesies) of her books. Not bad, but not my style. Still reading this story of Salaka Djicke tugged at my heartstrings. (And I thought I did not have any!)
The love story in this fabled desert outpost began over the phone, when he dialed the wrong number. It nearly ended with the couple's death at the hands of Islamic extremists who considered their romance "haram" — forbidden.
What happened in between is a study in how al-Qaida-linked militants terrorized a population, whipping women and girls innorthern Mali almost every day for not adhering to their interpretation of the strict moral code known as Shariah. It is also a testament to the violent clash between the brutal, unyielding Islam of the invaders and the moderate version of the religion that has long prevailed in Timbuktu, once a center for Islamic learning.
Salaka Djicke is a round-faced, big-boned girl with the wide thighs still fashionable in the desert, an unforgiving terrain that leaves many women without curves. Until the Islamists came and upended her world, the 24-year-old lived a relatively free life.

(NEWS CENTER) -- Gov. Paul LePage is, once again, telling the Legislature if they want answers from members of his cabinet, put it in writing.
This has been an ongoing thing between the governor and democratic leaders. The latest incident involved a committee that wanted to talk to DHHS Commissioner Mary Mayhew about several issues.
We talk with NEWS CENTER political analysts, republican Phil Harriman and democrat Ethan Strimling about what needs to be done to resolve the impasse.

WOONSOCKET — A single image defined Woonsocket High's incredulously disappointing 15-14 loss to St. Raphael Academy on Saturday afternoon.
Perhaps 15 minutes after the R.I. Division II quarterfinal defeat, junior running back/linebacker Jaston Robinson exited the Barry Field clubhouse doors and – after being approached by a WHS parent – fell into his arms and sobbed.
WOONSOCKET — A single image defined Woonsocket High's incredulously disappointing 15-14 loss to St. Raphael Academy on Saturday afternoon.
Perhaps 15 minutes after the R.I. Division II quarterfinal defeat, junior running back/linebacker Jaston Robinson exited the Barry Field clubhouse doors and – after being approached by a WHS parent – fell into his arms and sobbed.
As a true-maroon Villa Novan, he had every reason, as a controversial officiating call resulted in the Saints celebrating a dramatic, thrilling victory over one of Rhode Island's premier programs. And, because of this mighty strange finale, it will be St. Raphael – not Woonsocket – which will battle Cumberland in a tourney semifinal at Tucker Field at 7 p.m., Friday.
To describe: The Saints held a 15-14 cushion with 1:47 remaining in regulation when head coach Mike Sassi indicated to the officiating crew that junior quarterback Emmanuel Leake would take a knee to run out the clock.
On a first-and-10 from his own 21, Leake did just that and lost a yard. With about 1:22 left, however, Leake handed the ball to senior fullback Josh Alves on a second-and-11, and Robinson apparently had ripped the ball from his cradle as he fell to the turf without a gain.
Refs immediately threw their flags and explained SRA would be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct, noting that because Leake didn't drop to his knee as previously planned and someone else touched the ball, a 10-yard (half the distance) assessment would be enforced.
Woonsocket mentor Carnell Henderson needed milliseconds to argue the call, stating that it was – in fact – a legal down, and the Saints should face at least a third-and-long, if not earn possession.
Those pleas were denied, as one official explained it was a "dead ball foul," meaning the play never occurred, and that – with the infraction – Sassi's bunch would face a second-and-21 from its own 11.
After both coaches spoke with the crew, Leake hit two more knees, and the Saints began their intense, immense celebration.
"I should've told the refs that I wanted to run the ball," Sassi stated after his squad improved to 6-3. "My biggest fear was having to punt the ball. I thought we may have needed to run it on more time so the clock would run down; it was bad math on my part, which is pretty bad considering I teach math.
"On first down, I asked Emmanuel to take a knee, then I tried to run a regular play," he added. "That was my fault, but there was no intent, except I wanted to make sure we didn't give the ball away."
Offered a disgruntled Henderson once his team fell to 7-3 overall and was ousted from the playoff picture: "That was my argument; if there wasn't (an Alves rush), then they should have put time back on the clock. The other argument was they still called it second down instead of third. They said they had blown the ball dead before it started, but – if that's the case – there should be more time added on.
"Overall, it was a great effort and a great football game," he continued. "The Saints came out in the second half and made some adjustments, but I thought we played well, good hard-nosed defense. It's very rare that a game like this only has one turnover, but we had one, and it cost us."
In the end, Woonsocket senior tailback Will Andino led all rushers with 131 yards on 25 handles, while Robinson managed 25 on six. Through the air, junior signal caller Miguel Raymond completed seven of 16 passes for 68 yards and a TD, with his main targets senior Josh Trinidad (four snags, 27 yards) and junior tight end Austin Wolter (2-35).
As for the Saints' three-pronged attack, senior tri-captain Alfred Dorbor hustled for 63 on 17 and fellow captain Josh Alves 41 on a dozen. Leake himself only landed five of 14 aerials, but did so for 128 yards.
All seemed well for the Novans as they entered the final half with a 14-0 cushion, but Sassi and Co. sliced the gap after the opening kickoff. It drove 70 yards on seven snaps, ending on Alves' one-yard plunge.
Highlighting the possession, which took only 2:52, were Leake's 23-yard toss to Dorbor and a 21-yarder to senior James Kelly.
Jake Davis booted the PAT, and that moved the Saints a bit closer at 14-7.
Woonsocket did nothing with its next drive, but – with 5:34 remaining in the third – began to roll. On a first-and-10 situation from his own 19, Raymond found Wolter open in the right flat for 19 yards, and – eight plays later – the Novans found themselves at the visitors' 7.
Raymond underthrew Trinidad on a third-and-five, then tossed behind Wolter stationed near the goal line. Both incompletions gave SRA the ball back.
On the third snap of the fourth period, Leake faded back, hitched to his left and sent an aerial in Kelly's direction; he snared it on the left hash at about the 45 and sprinted the remaining distance to post a stellar 79-yard scoring reception.
The Saints had lined up Davis to kick the extra point and tie it, but the Novans were called for encroachment; with the pigskin only a yard and a half from paydirt, Sassi sent in Alves, and he was stopped cold at the line of scrimmage. He nevertheless bulled his way into the end zone to give the Pawtucketers the 15-14 lead with 11:26 left to play.
Woonsocket did pose a threat on its next drive, moving to the Saints' 43, though nothing came of it, and the defense (paced by senior end Steven Toetee, who had a spectacular outing) stopped the Novans' cold again.
But the hosts did get the ball back for one final opportunity with 2:27 remaining. After two consecutive incompletions, Andino mustered a 17-yard jaunt off right tackle to move the chains, and – on the play – officials tacked on 15 more for a Saints' personal foul.
With a first-and-10 chance at the 32, Raymond overthrew Trinidad, and Andino looked to get a first down on a bull rush off left tackle.
On his way down, however, he fumbled, and Alves claimed the recovery. That just set up the more than dramatic finish.
"I'm really proud of these guys," Sassi said as he cradled his youngest daughter in his arms. "Instead of hanging their heads after being down 14-0, they kept fighting. We didn't get down. We made some adjustments at halftime, and they seemed to work pretty well (one was to tighten his offense into a half-circle around Leake, and run plays from there).
"Emmanuel didn't complete a lot of passes in the first half, but that's because he wasn't stepping into it," he added. "Defensively, we're getting better every week. It's hard to replicate their speed (in practice), and they got the edge on us a few times, but we did a great job of adjusting in the second half. We're predominantly a junior team, so the experience they're getting now is only going to help in the future."
Excepting one possession in the opening two periods, the Novans dominated. They took its initial drive 41 yards on five plays (following a 15-yard SRA facemask infraction) culminating on Raymond's 18-yard touchdown toss to Wolter. Andino took the direct snap on the two-pointer and plunged off the left guard to give Woonsocket an 8-0 lead with only 2:51 elapsed.
At the start of the second quarter, Henderson's contingent formulated another solid possession, maneuvering 71 yards on 12 calls ending on Robinson's one-yard dive off right guard. The Novans prepared to collect the two-pointer, but two penalties – one for a false start, the next for delay of game – pushed them back to the 13.
Raymond's aerial to Raymond in the back right corner of the end zone, however, fell to the turf. Had Woonsocket hit that, they would've snatched a 16-0 cushion.
Immediately, the Saints responded, 47 plays on 12 snaps, but Davis' 38-yard field goal try fell short and left with 54.6 seconds left before intermission.
Another statistic that didn't help: Officials whistled the Novans for nine penalties, good for a minus-51 yards. SRA itself Saints had six for a negative 65.
Just a year ago this week, Woonsocket claimed a dramatic, amazing 29-28 quarterfinal decision over the Saints at their Pariseau Field home after an SRA infraction on a PAT gave them a 1.5-yard advantage. Henderson chose to go for a pair, and it succeeded.
The conversion giveth – and taketh away.
"It's a gift and a curse," Henderson sighed. "They were going to go for the point after, but then we had the flag. We had the run bottled up, but we didn't make the tackle. They just made one more play than we did.

CANTON The St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators overwhelmingly approved at a special meeting Monday raising local sales tax from 3 to 4 percent, then argued over whether to keep Wladis Law Firm which some lawmakers believe was instrumental in achieving the goal as its lobbyist.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo signed the home rule legislation into law earlier this month that allows the county to hike its share of the sales tax. Legislators were waiting for a resolution provided by the state Department of Taxation and Finance.
The vote was 13 in favor. Legislators Daniel F. Parker, R-Potsdam, and Jim A. Bunstone, D-Potsdam, were absent.
There have been so many changes over the years to laws related to sales tax that state officials recommended the county repeal its 1967 resolution imposing a sales tax and re-enact it in a way that has the effect of an amendment, county attorney Michael C. Crowe said. The resolution references a distribution agreement the county has with Ogdensburg that the city recently signed but which has not been approved yet by the state Comptrollers Office. However, the language in the agreement is similar to how the county has handled sales tax with the city for the last 13 years.
Its unlikely there would be any difficulty, Mr. Crowe said.
The additional sales tax goes into effect Dec. 1. The total with the states 4 percent will be 8 percent.
After the special meeting, legislators in a subsequent committee session decided by a vote of 9-4 to keep Wladis as the countys lobbyist. The Syracuse firm is paid $5,000 per month.
The firm helped the county attain the sales tax legislation, which will sweep in a 14 percent property tax reduction next year, Legislative Chairman Jonathan S. Putney, D-Waddington, said.
Legislator Kevin D. Acres, R-Madrid, told Mr. Putney he should stop championing the sales tax increase as a benefit when the amount of the prospective tax decrease is the equivalent of a property tax increase approved in 2012.
You must think the people are stupid, Mr. Acres said.
The point is that property owners would see heftier tax increases without the hike in sales tax and the work of Wladis, Mr. Putney said.
It was not the efforts of Wladis that gave the county its long-sought sales tax increase but the support of state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, who insisted on a fiscal plan that spells out how the money will be used, Mr. Acres said.
Legislator Gregory M. Paquin, D-Massena, said the county was successful in being able to raise its sales tax only after Wladis became its lobbyist.
Shortly after hiring them, we got the sales tax, he said. I hope there are more coincidences like that.

Class of 1963
Halfback >>> 6-0, 180
1925, 1929-1934 Chicago Bears, 1926 New York Yankees (AFL), 1927 New York Yankees (NFL)
Harold Edward Grange ... Three-time All-American, 1923-1925 ... Earned "Galloping Ghost" fame as whirling dervish runner at Illinois ... Joined Bears on Thanksgiving Day, 1925 ... Magic name produced first huge pro football crowds on 17-game barnstorming tour ... With manager, founded rival American Football League, 1926 ... Missed entire 1928 season with injury ... Excelled on defense in latter years ... Born June 13, 1903, in Forksville, Pennsylvania ... Died January 28, 1991, at age of 87.
In the early 1920s, George Halas was desperately seeking a special gate attraction to help draw attention not only to his Chicago Bears team but also to the National Football League as a whole. University of Illinois running back Harold "Red" Grange, who ran with ghostlike speed and elusiveness, seemed to be the answer.
Although college stars rarely turned to pro football in those days, Halas and his partner Dutch Sternaman pondered just how much Grange could do for their team. Grange, who worked as an ice deliveryman during his college summers agreed to play for the Bears.
On Thanksgiving Day, 1925, just 10 days after Grange's last college game, 36,600 filled Cubs Park (now know as Wrigley Field) to see Red's pro debut against the Chicago Cardinals. Ten days later more than 70,000 packed New York's Polo Grounds to see Red and the Bears take on the New York Giants.
Sensing that a rare opportunity was at hand, Grange's agent, C. C. "Cash and Carry" Pyle, Halas and Sternaman, lined up an exhausting "barnstorming tour" of the country winning thousands of new fans for pro football. When Pyle and the Bears ownership couldn't agree on terms for the 1926 season, Pyle formed a rival American Football League with a team in New York called the Yankees that featured Grange.
While the Yankees had moderate success, the rest of the league failed. Pyle was allowed to move his team into the NFL in 1927 but Grange suffered a crippling knee injury during a game against the Bears. "l didn't play at all in 1928,"Grange remembers. "l was just an ordinary ball-carrier after that. I did develop into a pretty good defensive back, however."
Halas invited Grange back to the Bears in 1929 and he remained with them through the 1934 season. In the 1933 NFL Championship Game, Grange was a defensive hero with a difficult touchdown-saving tackle in the final seconds.

Last week, United States Congressman Chris Cannon announced that Utah school districts will begin receiving the largest increase in federal education funding in America's history.
In addition, the districts will also receive unprecedented new local control and flexibility.
"This funding is crucial for the education needs of Utah's school children," pointed out Cannon. "However, what is more important is the control that each individual school district will have over the money."
"Parents know what their children need to ensure they receive the best possible education. That is what the No Child Left Behind Act does. It allows local communities to decide how the money will be spent on our children's education," continued the U.S. congressman.
Along with placing an expanded emphasis on results, local control and parental involvement, the No Child Left Behind Act will mean significant resources for the Carbon County School District, added the congressman.
The county school district will receive $671,000 in title one funding for economically disadvantaged students - up $103,000 from fiscal year 2001.
The school districts in Utah will have new flexibility and decision-making authority over non-title one federal aid, explained Cannon.
Carbon County School District will receive $255,337 in federal educationrevenues, according to Cannon.
Effective immediately, the local school district will be empowered to make spending decisions with up to 50 percent or $127,669 of the federal education funding, pointed out the congressman.
Carbon County School District does not need to obtain approval from the U.S. Department of Education to make the related financial decisions.
Approximately $176,810 of the non-title one funding will be earmarked for teacher quality grants and about $19,208 will be for technology aid.
The remaining federal revenues allocated through the federal act come from the innovative and safe drug free schools programs.
Carbon officials may shift funds between the programs to meet the needs of local students.
"By increasing funding and flexibility, we will begin to see better results for Utah's school children," concluded Cannon. "We have one of the nation's top public school systems, but there is always room for improvement when it comes to our children. Utah's parents and teachers have always known what is best for our children."

MORRISTOWN – When school district residents vote on May 21 theyll have the chance to accept or reject a $9 million budget for the 2013-2014 school year, determine whether or not the district purchases a new bus and elected three members of the Board of Education.
Morristown Central School Superintendent David J. Glover reviewed the districts $9 million budget proposal at Tuesdays public hearing, saying this years budget is a different story than the past three years. The past three years we always had looming over our heads that we were going to lose money.
This year the district saw an increase of $264,471 in state aid, a 5.9-percent increase. This years $4.7 million state aid total represents 52.6-percent of the total budget.
The budget, a $481,156 increase over last years budget, includes a 3.35-percent increase in the districts tax level which totals $3.4 million.
The school is applying $789,655 in fund balance this year.
Weve been fortunate in past years that we have not had to hit the fund balance, Mr. Glover said. Its getting increasingly difficult to maintain that practice.
The district has roughly $3.3 million in its reserves.
The 2013-2014 budget sets aside money to hire a full-time special education teacher and a full-time elementary teacher.
A social studies and an English position will also be restored from half-time to three-quarters time.
Mr. Glover said the district is also looking to hire a librarian as well as find another people to take on the position of Athletic Director. Currently Mr. Glover is filling that role.
There is $100,000 in next years budget is set aside in order to pay for security upgrades, including fitting classroom doors with smaller windows and locks that can be activated from the inside. The project will also focus on installing a more secure front entrance.
Voters will decide whether or not the district purchases a new 65-passenger bus for no more than $125,000. Two older buses would be traded in to help cover the cost of the bus.
In addition, three seats on the Board of Education are available with four people seeking election. Larry Kring III, Mark Blanchard, current Vice President of the Board Darrell Merkel and current Board Member Mary Anne Bailey are all running.

28 U.S. Code § 2349 - Jurisdiction of the proceeding
(a) The court of appeals has jurisdiction of the proceeding on the filing and service of a petition to review. The court of appeals in which the record on review is filed, on the filing, has jurisdiction to vacate stay orders or interlocutory injunctions previously granted by any court, and has exclusive jurisdiction to make and enter, on the petition, evidence, and proceedings set forth in the record on review, a judgment determining the validity of, and enjoining, setting aside, or suspending, in whole or in part, the order of the agency.
(b) The filing of the petition to review does not of itself stay or suspend the operation of the order of the agency, but the court of appeals in its discretion may restrain or suspend, in whole or in part, the operation of the order pending the final hearing and determination of the petition. When the petitioner makes application for an interlocutory injunction restraining or suspending the enforcement, operation, or execution of, or setting aside, in whole or in part, any order reviewable under this chapter, at least 5 days' notice of the hearing thereon shall be given to the agency and to the Attorney General.
