[Video] Carrie Underwood And Tony Bennett Perform On "Blue Bloods"
September 27, 2011 5:46 PM
Just in case you missed it Friday, Carrie Underwood had a HUGE television moment performing with Tony Bennett on the season premiere of the CBS cop show, "Blue Bloods'. The story line involved a big fundraising celebration for the new mayor-elect, and Carrie and Tony played themselves – BIG stars!
The episode was filmed on Bennett's 85th birthday. Tony & Carrie also perform "It Had To Be You" on his new Duets II album, featuring Tony's team-ups with Lady Gaga, the late Amy Winehouse, Faith Hill, Mariah Carey and many more great singers. I don't know what was more fun, seeing Tony and Carrie crush this great classic song, as only they could, or watching Tom Selleck, as Detective Frank Reagan, back solving crimes in 59 minutes.

As of Wednesday, March 27, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA -- The state's highest court has ruled against a Snellville man challenging the county's controversial trash plan.
The Georgia Supreme Court issued its ruling Monday on the appeal brought by 30-year Snellville resident Bob Mesteller, ruling against him and siding with a Gwinnett judge's summary judgement that the county's 2010 solid waste collection plan -- including the collection of fees via property tax bills -- was legal and constitutional.
In a unanimous opinion, Justice P. Harris Hines wrote that "it cannot be said that the County's method of providing solid waste collection services, and paying for those services, is unreasonable, arbitrary, or capricious."
Under the trash agreement, Gwinnett County is divided into several different residential zones, each of which is assigned a different garbage collector. The waste haulers provide monthly bills to the county, which pays them based on the number of residential units they served that month.
For the services, county residents are charged one year of upfront fees on their ad valorem tax bills.
Mesteller's appeal argued that the county government had no right to sign the contract to begin with; that the county illegally loaned its credit to private companies; and that placing the fees on tax bills represented an illegal tax.
The Supreme Court shot down all three arguments in Monday's brief. Attorney Chris McClurg, who represented Mesteller, called it a "terrible day for Gwinnett County residents," but said he wasn't overly surprised.
"I guess the moral of the story is if you're going to do something unlawful, make sure you do it as big and grand as possible, so it's too painful to unwind," McClurg told the Daily Post, referencing the years-long process and expense it took for the county to enact the plan.
"My gut reaction is that for the Supreme Court to undo what the county had done ... would've cost millions of dollars and would've spawned more lawsuits," he added.
A Georgia State House bill sponsored by Rep. Brett Harrell (R-Snellville) recently attempted to legislate "nontax related fees and assessments" off of property tax bills. The effort was tabled earlier this month.

Speak for yourself. I am paying almost double what I paid when I could change suppliers when they did not perform. I am still looking for ways to get rid of the government workers when they do not perform which is most of the time.
Also my freedom of choice is more important to me than having fewer cars/trucks on the road. Not that Gwinnett County are all that great.

They may have sided with the county. They may say it's legal. Doesn't mean it's right and doesn't mean they can make the county keep it. It will run out in time and if politicians have any sense they will see what support of it will do to their careers. It ended Mike Beaudreau's career and it will end others.

Sad but true. If you are not happy with what your representative is or isn't doing that's your alternative. You might as well not vote though, because Democrats don't get elected here

Been here long? This state was run completely by democrats for about 135 years until relatively recently...
And if you check, half the republicans were democrats less than ten years ago...

Correction - the state was run by Dixiecrats, almost all of the Dixiecrats switched to the Republican party.

And do you remember the reasons why they switched to the Republicans? Could it have been something to do with the racial policies of Kennedy and Johnson?

Of course. Nixon was only able to get elected by using the "Southern Strategy", catering to the racist population of the southern states and welcoming aboard the former Dixiecrats.

And unless you stir things up by voting against the incumbent now and then, it'll just continue. Neither Party has much to say for itself when it comes to ethics or following the will of the people. Politicians are like Stepford Wives....they're all equally interchangeable.

Buford Guy, I mean TOMMY HUNTER, there are at least a few of us out here in the hinterlands that are paying attention. You post all about the garbage deal, which on balance, is more good than bad, but certainly not all good. But, Boudreaux, for all his faults that you maligned him with in your scorch the earth campaign last summer. at least voted to hold the line or lower taxes every year. You sir, in your 1st vote, vote for a budget that will by NECESSITY, raise taxes at least 8% this year. Yet you campaigned on a platform, straight from your website, " the county government should be run like a household budget, you do more with less." How do you answer this Buford Guy, I mean TOMMY HUNTER? As for Boudreaux, I don't he is finished at all. An election where someone loses by 50something votes in a gerrymandered by Don Balfour district, where 5% of the folks vote is by no means the end per se'
kevin 2 years, 6 months ago
If he voted not to increase taxes, it was only because he knew the tax increase was sure to pass and he wanted to keep his votes. This is the same tactic used in Congress. He was FOR the privatizing of the airport if you all remember, despite the folks telling him not to.
R 2 years, 6 months ago
I respectfully request that you send your scales out for calibration...
R 2 years, 6 months ago
Gee another party that seems to be confused about the difference between fees and taxes…
Fees are paid for services that you select to use or not. Taxes are a forced collection item - you have NO choice. Poof it's really a spanking new tax!! One we didn't have before!
The trash plan in Gwinnett is this county's very own ACA, if you love the ACA - you LOVE this trash plan.
However, if you see substantially higher cost - all paid up front, reduced choice or flat out no completion, and the ability for elected leaders to INCREASE costs on one set of the public (completely unrelated in any way to services provided) to hand out fee breaks to another subset of public during election years. Go for it.
If you can overlook the public promises made loud and clear and presented all the way back to Loraine Greene and HER class of commissioners, and NOT provided in reality because of sanctioned legal maneuvers by Gwinnett County to the contrary because - "competitive bidding wasn't necessary for essential services" – a legal position that existed prior to the political promises of the BOC. Again Go for it.
If you truly believe that it's more important to prevent the possibly of personal lawsuits* against the former commissioners, their heirs and estates than serving the citizens who were locked into consent decree for ten years - Go for it.
- Elected officials have immunity from lawsuits arising out of the NORMAL course of county business. Why such a special focus on this decree? It's the FIRST thing covered not an add-on addendum as one would expect…
If you think Gwinnett County government should have another 30+ Million dollar loan of YOUR assets every year to do whatever with for at least 6 months…
Go for it…
Because, deep down, you must somehow feel you're not paying your fair share.

"My gut reaction is that for the Supreme Court to undo what the county had done ... would've cost millions of dollars and would've spawned more lawsuits," he added
This is the real reason for this ruling. We are stuck with this social plan until it comes up for renewal in a few years. If you do not want this plan then vote in some one who says that they will stop this plan and vote the ones who want it out. There are pros and cons to this plan, but most want to use the free enterprise and freedom of choice to do business with whom we wish. Most want less government in our lives there by reducing our tax burden. All that had to be done was to say you must have trash service, get your own just like car insurance. We will see how government operates when Obama care goes into full affect. Same principal but on a smaller scale.

The court system doesn't use law anymore. They do what is politically correct to do. This is why our country is in the shape it is in. The people fell asleep a long time ago and went about their happy lives like little rich-folk, ignoring politics until it bit them in the rear.
BuzzG 2 years, 6 months ago
All I know is that I have lived in my house for 23 years. In that time I have not had a lick of a problem with my garbage collection. Suddenly they are missing my house. The garbage company now knows that they do not need to keep me happy, they need to keep the politician happy. There is a big difference.
What do you bet these trash haulers give the BOC big contributions when they run for election. This is all about dis-empowering the citizen and empowering the politician.

I am both pleased yet sad about the plan. First and foremost, the one neighbor who refused trash service and put trash in other people's bins without compensation is no longer having a free ride. Numerous complaints from neighbors were going absolutely no where. Now that this neighbor is paying for trash service, the neighbor is actually using it! What I do not like is collecting the funds up to a year in advance.
I have read KennethStepp's and find it a good stepping stone to improving the existing plan. Keep in mind that while the court sided with the county it does not mean we cannot elect officials to make adjustments. For example, providing a rolling bid process to serve the county or even allowing for 3-4 companies to be part of a pool of providers. In this idea, one could select any company but the pool of money would be collected from the county based on number of customers.
sewitup 2 years, 6 months ago
any garbage plan needs to include an optional bag system like several of the cities use. Our household uses less than one box of bags a year - thus it costs us about $25/yr for garbage service. This option is particularly helpful and less expensive for senior citizens, adults w/ 1-2 in households, or those of us who recycle and/or compost everything and do not generate a great deal of trash. Those of us in these categories do not generate enough trash to fill a huge container but shouldn't be penalized for it!
Say_that_again 2 years, 6 months ago
Would improve recycling efforts! But is it fair to give owners of compactors a huge price cut?
Why_not 2 years, 6 months ago
It costs just as much to drive a trash truck by a house that only has one bag as it does to drive by a house with a full bin.

Hey but what about all the road damage due to these heavily loaded trucks? Wasn't the inability of the secondary roads in Gwinnett to stand up to the traffic- one of the reasons we just had to have "it"?
R 2 years, 6 months ago
I don't know, maybe if pricing on our tax bills was really tied to the cost charges of physical service we could all find out...
pcjohn 2 years, 6 months ago
sewitup has presented a great idea. Many people live alone and generate little to no garbage each week. I'm one of them. Each week there is only one small bag (a bag that you get from the supermarket) in that huge dumpster I have to use. I generate no wet garbage since I garden and use all vegetable refuse as mulch. The idea of having prepaid bags for garbage collection is a fairer way to assess collection fees. Some of my neighbors have 3 or more kids and their garbage load is ten times mine yet they pay the same price I do. Seems to me that we should pay for service according to how much of that service we use.
Mack711 2 years, 6 months ago
In our neighborhood there are 3 senior citizens homes who used on trash service and split the cost of the service. The service they had was cheaper than what we have now. They did not even fill one container. Under the current plan they pay for the entire container empty or full. One of these familes can not fill the container in a month. Prepaid bags is the way to go. You pay for what you throw away. Fair and simple.
LilburnsFuture 2 years, 6 months ago
Couldn't you essentially do the same by having 3 or more seniors in the same house and increase the garbage all while paying the same price? Because you could easily flip that arguement when it comes to healthcare. That same family is healthy they only go to the doctor for bumps and scratches and do not require nearly the same amount of medication. Shouldn't they only pay for services by how much they use or should their premiums go up to cover everyone? In other words, careful what you wish for.
Mack711 2 years, 6 months ago
The seniors are not in the same house, they are 3 seperate houses. They all total do not generate enough to fill one can. They saved money by combining the 3 houses into one can but under the current plan they must pay for one can that is not totally full in a month. by the way one has moved out of Gwinnett and one more has his house for sale. Not saying this is the reason but has something to do with it. They say that taxes here in Gwinnett are higher than other places.
kevin 2 years, 6 months ago
Blame your county's BOC for all this. It's government too big to fail all over. Quit electing people over an over. Your government won't fall part by having someone new take over for a while. When was the last time Nash and her bunch published the transparent news about how much they get in rebates from OUR recycling and where that rebate is being spent? Many trash haulers are around that pay a check directly to the homeowner, based on pounds recycled. This BOC is about as transparent as the Obama administration.
Karl 2 years, 6 months ago
From kevin: "Many trash haulers are around that pay a check directly to the homeowner, based on pounds recycled."
Say_that_again 2 years, 6 months ago
Do you really expect facts from Kevin!
R 2 years, 6 months ago
Well it aint a check direct to you, but since no one in Gwinnett knows where OUR recycling revenue goes - how about this example below? And these were folks kicked out of Gwinnett because there was no competitive bidding process actually performed as promised
Recycle for the cure! 100% of our recycling proceeds are donated to the American Cancer Society to support its Patient Resource Navigation Programs in North Georgia.
Patient Resource Navigators assist people suffering from all kinds of cancer, with breast cancer being theRecycle for the Cure most commonly diagnosed cancer among their patients in parts of North Georgia.
Mack711 2 years, 6 months ago
If you are going to blame the BOC then have a look at the BOC that approved this plan. Bannister: reisgned to avoid being jailed and charged with a crime. Kennerly who is being charged and will appear in court to answer charges. Lassiter who admitted taking a bribe and was sent to jail. and oh yes Mike B who may be under investigation for expense account charges.Those are the ones who stuck us with this plan along with Connie Wiggins. We need to know exactly how much Connie, often refered to as Connie's Commies, gets for the sale of the items that we recycle. You want transparenticy, start there. The sale of these recycle should be paid to the county in order to offset the cost of the service and reduce our payments to the county. We need to know all about the deals and payments that are being made and who gets the money.

Kevin, are you making this stuff up as you type? Seriously???
jack 2 years, 6 months ago
We need a progressive trash system instead of the flat, regressive system we now have.
Those fortunate to have a lot of trash should be asked to give a just a little bit more, dig a little deeper, than the unfortunate with less trash.

Maybe we should get trash exchanges where we could shop and CHOOSE suppliers.
Oh good Grief! Hold the presses!

Recently, we noticed people are making a commitment to use more natural products than ever before. Your personal choice of skin care products such as Mary Kay is a major concern of ours. We started our soap business to introduce the old time traditions from past generations into modern society utilizing advanced technology to enhance skin conditioning.
Commercial soaps can dry out your skin, and the use of perfume can cause allergic reactions in so many people today. Most commercial cleaning products are loaded with harsh detergents, made from unnatural and sometimes carcinogenic ingredients.
Our soaps are homemade with all natural vegetable oils, herbs, and other natural additives. Our recipes are carefully formulated to maximize the benefits of both cleaning performance and moisturizing qualities using natural oils which are good for your skin.
Currently we are researching a new soap formula primarily for people who enjoy the great outdoors. This group of people are searching for a natural insect repellant to avoid the use of nasty chemicals like OFF™ insect repellant and other products on the market; the toxins in these products is slowly poisoning our families. We think our lard soap may help reduce the spread of the deadly West Nile Virus by repelling mosquitoes and other biting insects.
Our soap company is a home based business, we do not mass produce our soaps like some of the other companies out there. Homemade natural soap will make a great christmas gift for just about anybody, and we have received praise from our customers raving about how good the soap makes them feel, and wow it smells invigorating too! We encourage you to shop around to compare our soap to the others on the market, you will find we have outstanding soaps at a reasonable price here in our online shop.
We have excellent soaps when used daily will soften your skin, relax your mind by removing the stress from our hectic lives. We now make Grandmas old fashioned lye soap from lard like in the old days. Ask us about our old fashioned lye soap grandma used to cure everything.

News Release
Branch B. Rickey to Discuss Grandfather's Baseball, Business Legacies
January 10, 2011
"To describe it this way is not to belittle it," McGurn wrote on Aug. 24, 2010. "To the contrary, recognizing the business aspect of this enterprise helps explain not only why it succeeded, but why it succeeded as smoothly as it did."
Rickey's grandson, Branch B. Rickey, will explore the business facets of the Rickey-Robinson relationship on Jan. 27, when he presents Ohio Wesleyan University's annual Heisler Business Ethics Lecture. His presentation, "More than Sport: The Branch Rickey-Jackie Robinson Legacy," will begin at 7:30 p.m. in Gray Chapel inside OWU's University Hall, 61 S. Sandusky St. The event is free and open to the public. It also is scheduled to be streamed online at StreamOWU.
Both grandfather and grandson are graduates of Ohio Wesleyan. Branch Rickey graduated from the university in 1904, and Branch B. Rickey earned his OWU degree in 1967. Today, the younger Rickey is president of Minor League Baseball's Pacific Coast League.
Of his grandfather's courage and vision, Rickey has said: "[Y]ou don't have to compromise your integrity to be a success, in spite of widespread indication from studying biographies, and reading political journalism to the contrary. You may have to compromise on your time, on where you live, or vacation, on what income you make, on all those things that increase in adversity when you aren't in the mainstream – but not your integrity."
Before becoming president of the Pacific Coast League in 1997, Rickey spent more than 20 years in Major League Baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Cincinnati Reds as a scout, assistant scouting director, and player development director.
He began his professional career with the Pirates at age 17, simultaneously serving as business manager of the team's rookie league affiliate and pursuing his bachelor's degree at Ohio Wesleyan. After graduation, Rickey, a philosophy major, volunteered with the Peace Corps in Venezuela and worked as a Peace Corps campus recruiter. He returned to baseball in 1972, when he became assistant director of the Kansas City Royals Baseball Academy in Sarasota, Fla.
Rickey's presentation highlights a weeklong celebration of Branch Rickey-Jackie Robinson Week at Ohio Wesleyan, with additional community events planned daily from Jan. 24-27. The week will include free movies, a character actor performance, a baseball roundtable discussion, and a Ross Art Museum exhibit.
Ohio Wesleyan's annual Heisler Business Ethics Lecture is sponsored by the university's Woltemade Center for Economics, Business and Entrepreneurship and funded by the Heisler Family Endowment for the Study of Ethics. The endowment honors OWU graduates James Heisler, Class of 1938; Robert Heisler, Class of 1942; and Bruce Heisler, Class of 1949. The Woltemade Center, founded in 1985, helps students to integrate business theory and practice, and provides lectures and other resources to benefit students, faculty, and the local community.
Ohio Wesleyan University is one of the nation's premier small, private universities, with more than 90 undergraduate majors, sequences, and courses of study, and 23 Division III varsity sports. Located in Delaware, Ohio, just minutes north of Ohio's capital and largest city, Columbus, the university combines a globally focused curriculum with off-campus learning and leadership opportunities that translate classroom theory into real-world practice. OWU's close-knit community of 1,850 students represents 45 states and 52 countries. Ohio Wesleyan earned a 2009 Presidential Award for Excellence in General Community Service, is featured in the book "Colleges That Change Lives," and is included on the "best colleges" lists of U.S. News & World Report and The Princeton Review.

Maxwell says Oz need to be 'flawless' to end World T20 title drought
Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has said that they will need to be flawless in order to end their World Twenty20 title drought following Australia's first-up loss to Pakistan in their recent clash.
Maxwell said that they have to be 'flawless from now on' adding that Australia has got to hit the training paddock a bit harder and work on their fielding, as it was not good enough against Pakistan.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Maxwell, who scored a stunning 74 runs off 33 balls against Pakistan, said that the Australian team would be hitting the training hard and try to rectify all the mistakes they made against Pakistan.
Australia lost by 16 runs as Pakistan, sent in to bat first, put up a total of 191 for 5 wickets, but Australia were bowled out for 176 runs and only a perfect record from their remaining matches will ensure Australia's progress to the semi-finals past the Super 10 stage, the report added.

Things are heating up for off-screen "Revenge" costars Emily VanCamp and Josh Bowman!
The two, who are dating both on the hit ABC show and in real-life, hit the pool yesterday at The Sea Lounge at the Monte Carlo Beach Club in Monaco yesterday -- where they couldn't keep their hands (and lips!) off each other.
The two were seen getting cuddly and kissy on one of the lounge chairs before taking their PDA-fest to the pool.
VanCamp showed off her impressive body in a hot bikini, while Bowman flaunted his sexy six-pack.

An Italian Christmas dinner always features lot of luscious seafood. It's easy to prepare a classic dish like linguine con vongole at home, especially when you use preshucked clams available in the seafood section of the grocery store.
Garlic Broccoli Rabe
Stir-fried broccoli rabe is a traditional Christmas side. When it's seasoned with healthy amounts of garlic and a pinch of red chili flake, your guests will be saying "Bravo!" as they ask for seconds.
Roasted Halibut with Fennel and Potatoes
Popular brands of anise-flavored liqueur include Pernod and Ricard. A jigger of these spirits subtly enhances the natural licorice flavor found in fennel.
Rack of Lamb with Warm Apple and Lentil Salad
Mustard and rosemary complement rich lamb and earthy lentils in this elegant meal. Don't let rack of lamb intimidate you. It's simple to prepare.
Venetian Cookies
GH Recipe Developer Gina Miraglia helps her mom, Marie, make these rich almond-flavored bars every year in their Queens, NY, kitchen. Mother and daughter pack the cookies in Christmas tins along with other Italian goodies for lucky relatives and friends.

Wine-Poached Pears
Dessert doesn't get any more simple, elegant, or waist-whittling than this Shiraz-drenched stunner.

BHP | Academics
Forge Your Own Path
The Business Honors Program is versatile. When you begin to plan out your four years at The University of Texas, it will become immediately apparent that choosing a specialty in McCombs such as finance or marketing or management is easy. The Business Honors degree integrates well with all ten McCombs majors, and as a Business Honors student, you have the option of double majoring within McCombs. With a BHP degree that gives you a strong foundation in business coupled with an area of specialization, you become a dynamic potential hire for recruiting companies.
BHP students can also major outside of McCombs. Although many of our students decide to take the traditional business route, some of our students already know that they want to be doctors, lawyers, economists, writers, or follow their own unique career path. The Business Honors degree supplements any of these majors, teaching you not only about the general business world but also how to think analytically. Pre-med and pre-law BHP students often go on to attend top medical programs and law schools. Armed with a knowledge of business, they are well equipped to open their own practice and manage their own finances. The Business Honors degree can only compliment students' educations and make them stronger candidates for whatever career path they choose to pursue.

Amy Winehouse Toxicology Results Released: No Drugs Found
Amy Winehouse was drug-free when she passed away at age 27 in London on July 23.
A rep for the late "Rehab" singer's family confirmed the results of a toxicology test in a statement on Tuesday.
PHOTOS: Remembering Amy Winehouse
"Toxicology results returned to the Winehouse family by authorities have confirmed that there were no illegal substances in Amy's system at the time of her death," the statement reads.
The Grammy-winning British star had long battled drug and alcohol addiction, but her father Mitch told Us she had kicked the habit three years ago.
VIDEO: Her staggering musical legacy
Continues the family statement: "Results indicate that alcohol was present but it cannot be determined as yet if it played a role in her death. The family would like to thank the police and coroner for their continuing thorough investigations and for keeping them informed throughout the process. They await the outcome of the inquest in October."
PHOTOS: Amy and other stars who died at age 27
"Three years ago, Amy conquered her drug dependency," Mitch Winehouse told Us Weekly three days after his daughter's body was found in her London apartment. "The doctors said it was impossible, but she really did it. She was trying hard to deal with her drinking and had just completed three weeks of abstinence."
Added the mourning father of his daughter's final days: "She was the happiest she has been for years. She was not depressed."

2012 YP of the Year: Winner Lauren Burt
Still shy of 30, Lauren Burt is already an established leader in and outside of Des Moines. Now she can add 2012 Juice Young Professional of the Year to her growing list of accolades and accomplishments.
Burt, 29, joins Andrew Allen (2009), Chris Diebel (2010) and Tiffany Tauscheck (2011) as the winners of our annual award, which honors YPs who have made significant contributions to the quality of life in central Iowa.
"Lauren's skill set makes her a very versatile employee and positions her well for future opportunities," said Steve Lacy, president and CEO of Meredith Corporation, where Burt coordinates all-employee meetings at 20 nationwide locations in her role as manager of corporate communications. "Her focus, determination and community connections will be an asset to her as she pursues her career goals."
Burt has been busy serving as a board member for groups like Junior League of Des Moines, Young Variety and Winefest Grand Cru, as well as holding a position as a state commissioner for the Iowa Commission on Volunteer Services, a role she was appointed to by Gov. Terry Branstad.
She's a champion of our city. In 2011, Forbes named Des Moines America's Best City for Young Professionals. The ranking was a testament to how Des Moines has changed and grown over the last 10 years. Every young professional in the area played a part in the city's high ranking, but Burt's role was a bit more tangible.
At the time Burt was working as the director of media and marketing for economic development at the Greater Des Moines Partnership. She led a national public relations campaign for the city, which included getting Des Moines on Forbes' radar.
"Lauren worked directly with the reporter to provide information that was key to getting Des Moines considered for the YP list, much less the top honor," said Jay Byers, CEO of the Greater Des Moines Partnership.
At only 27 Burt served as 2011-2012 president of the Junior League of Des Moines, an organization with which Burt has a family connection. When she was a child her mother worked with Junior League and that involvement provided her with an example for what she wanted to do with her life.
"I grew up with the knowledge that to those whom much is given, much is expected," Burt said. "I identified with doing something bigger outside of myself."
Burt doesn't join an organization with the thought of joining its board or becoming president. Rather, she said she joins because she's passionate about or believes in each group's mission. She wants to make a difference, and in trying to do so many doors have opened for her.
For Burt, the big opportunities also can be the scary ones. Like becoming president of the Junior League of Des Moines. But they also give her chances to grow.
"It was a big challenge, but it seems like you can learn the most from big leaps like that," Burt said.
Burt's big advice for would-be leaders is to make a phone call to a group or organization and ask what you can do to help. Burt has been observant in other cities while traveling for Meredith and said that she's rarely seen the kind of opportunities and involvement for YPs that we have in Des Moines.
"Lauren's personal level of community and civic engagement, her high degree of professionalism, and her ability to maintain a positive attitude while handling the demands and stress of a busy work and personal life make her a valued leader," Byers said.
Burt hopes to see more young professionals step up for leadership roles. YPs will see more leadership opportunities open up to them in their late 20s and early 30s, and Burt is especially hopeful more young women will seize those opportunities.
One of her hobbies is collecting etiquette books, including antique selections full of outdated and oddball information. But she's found something that has stood the test of time from those older books into the Emily Post-inspired work on shelves today.
"I firmly believe good manners open all doors," Burt said. "No matter who you are or what you're doing, I think it is important to treat people with civility and have respect for others."
That etiquette is evident when you meet her, and is a trait noticed and appreciated by many in her professional career — like her mentor, Bonnie Campbell, a partner at LPCA Public Strategies.
"Because of Lauren's remarkable poise and grace, she exudes professionalism and competence. Lauren's personal style is warm and welcoming and confidence-inspiring," Campbell said. "Whether among young (or older) professionals, it is literally impossible not to take Lauren seriously. She is a natural leader."
Her advice for young professionals:
"The first step is to figure out what you want to do and what you're passionate about. Volunteers don't get paid, so they have to have a lot of passion to spend countless hours being involved. Secondly, don't be afraid to get involved. Any organization trying to make an impact will never say no to help. So don't be afraid to make a phone call or go to a meeting."
Lauren M.G. Burt
Age: 29
About Burt: The director of corporate communications for Meredith Corporation, a national media and marketing company based in Des Moines. She was the 2011-2012 president of the Junior League of Des Moines, an at-large board member of Young Variety, part of Winefest Des Moines' Grand Cru, and state commissioner for the Iowa Commission on Volunteer Services.

I'll never forget my first day of teaching kindergarten in an inner-city school with struggling students, half of whom didn't speak English when they walked in my classroom. As I supervised students working at the art table, I noticed that none of my students were holding their scissors correctly…NONE. Later in the day, I watched as several children struggled to hold their pencil, grasping it as if they were holding a knife and stabbing their paper. It was evident that my students had not spent time at home developing Fine Motor Skills in the most critical time period for them to develop. It was also very evident that I had my work cut out for me to catch them up and strengthen their little hand muscles.
What are Fine Motor Skills?
Motor Skills are divided into two categories: Gross Motor and Fine Motor. Gross Motor Skills are the coordination of movements that are required for large movements: crawling, running, jumping, throwing, climbing, etc. These are the skills that develop first. Fine Motor Skills are the coordination of movements that are required for small muscle movements: cutting, writing, opening water bottles, tying shoes, etc. Both sets of motor skills work together to help us function through our day, but fine motor skills are the more detailed of the two skills. Without fine motor skills, life would be very hard.
Why Develop Them?
Do you really need to focus on Fine Motor Skills? Won't kids just pick up on them? To a certain extent, yes, kids will develop them as they go through life, but I'd argue that they might not be fully developed without some intentional practice. If we truly want to set up our children for success, I think it is important for us to set up opportunities for them develop.
Fine motor skills are important because they directly impact how well a child can write and cut paper.
I recently posted a picture on Facebook of some of Jonah's writing. A friend complimented his writing followed by the question, "How did you get him to write so well?!" Deep down I knew what she was asking; she wanted a formula for the same results. My answer: We developed fine motor skills before I ever expected him to write.
For the next two weeks, I'm honored to be joining 39 other bloggers in iHomeschool Network's Hopscotch! I'll spend 10 days sharing my "formula" for Developing Fine Motor Skills. I'm writing this series for my friend. I'm writing this series for you. I'm writing this series for my first class of students who made me think about how to strengthen little hand muscles. I hope you'll join the fun.

Scrapbook Albums: Keep Memories Safe
As we all go about our daily lives, we are faced with a truth that can not be avoided: Change is inevitable. No mater what precautions we take, or ideas we try to implement, we can not avoid change. Sometimes change is for the better, while other times it can be disheartening. One way to help counteract the emotional responses to change is to keep the memories of the past alive and well. One way to do this is to keep a scrapbook album for photos or other keepsakes. You can find an elegant selection of
Pioneer scrapbooks
at StorePhotos.com.
Transform Photo Albums
Photo albums are a great place to organize all of your pictures so that you can easily find them and show them to others. But we ask: Why just have photo albums, when you can create
scrapbook albums?
A scrapbook gives you the opportunity to flex your creative muscle as you can decorate your pages or add embellishments to make the project your own. You can add quotes, stickers, newspaper clippings, emblems, boarders, or any number of creative decorations. You are only limited by your imagination.
Scrapbook Albums Make Great Gifts
Scrapbook albums
are also an excellent gift idea. Crafting a scrapbook for someone not only allows them to relive the special moments from their past, but it also shows how much you care about someone that you took the time and effort to put together such an extensive project. Occasions where you can use a scrapbook album as a gift: Weddings, graduations, birthdays, anniversaries, new additions to the family, mothers day, or fathers day. Again, you are only limited by your imagination.
So if you want to turn your ordinary photo albums into impressive scrapbook albums, make sure to visit StorePhotos.com to find all of the quality supplies you will need for your project.

You are now demanding a circumstance, which, even if it were proved up to the hilt, would not prejudice me inside eyes of any good judge, needs to be fatal to my opinion when, because it is, it rests on vague suspicion, uncertainty, and ignorance.

Dont blame me. Im focused on Arty. Albeit three kids with inhuman weaponry clanking under every loose fold of cloth.

Pub manager Phil Edmonds (left) and kitchen manager Leigh Lynch are pictured during a food festival in Victoria Square, Birmingham.
Phil, who runs The Square Peg in the city, and his team were involved in the event, organised by the Colmore Business District initiative.
Leigh, together with kitchen managers from Wetherspoon pubs across Birmingham, showcased the great range of quality products available at the pubs.
Among the tasters on offer were Mexican chicken, Mexican beef burgers, superfood salads with salmon and chicken and an Aberdeen Angus steak flatbread.
Phil said: "The event was a great success, with all of the pubs from the city and surrounding area helping. It was a great idea to get involved and show potential customers our range on offer."

Friendly and Comfortable
Arrived very early and was let into my room which was great because I needed to change.
Easy parking, nice room. The bed is a bit cheap and cheerful - this is the one place I feel a bit of a corner has been cut - but it was good enough.
Staff were friendly and the food in the bar and breakfast was great - service is lightning fast. Good, honest, value.

"Mom, we are not getting anywhere!"
Those were the words of the seven-year-old boy who was sitting behind me on the airplane the other day. We were about an hour into the flight. When the plane took off, he was so excited because the engines were roaring and our speed was evident by the fact that things were flashing by his window. The squeals of, "We're flying!" were shared with all of us with great glee.
The excitement quickly turned to fidgeting. He fussed and kicked the back of my seat, opened and shut the tray repeatedly up and down for an hour. Suddenly, there was momentary silence. That's when I heard him exclaim, "Mom, we are not getting anywhere!"
I noticed that we had slowed down and dropped in elevation. However, as I looked out the window to share his view, I had to smile. No longer did you hear the roar of the engines. It was true — things on the ground appeared not to be moving. It did, in fact, feel like we weren't going anywhere. We seemed to be suspended in space and time. That feeling was especially noticeable when compared to driving a car close to the ground, where you constantly feel the sensation of speed and movement. In a car, you are in the moment, in control, and you receive physical clues of speed and progress.
I suddenly realized, "Aren't we all like this little boy sitting behind me?" It is true that when I am "closer to the ground" and involved in the tasks and details, I feel like I am really getting somewhere — whether I am or not. The adrenaline provides a sensation of speed and accomplishment. Yet, often, the real progress made may be like the comparison between a car and a plane. A plane gives you a meta-view of your destination, and although at times it may feel slower, your ability to stay on point and "in the air" means you will travel greater distances in less time than when in that car.
What is the real illusion — speed and frenzy when close to the ground, or the sensation of suspended anticipation while traveling great distances? I had to chuckle because the little boy was right — when we are keeping our eye on the higher goal, it often feels like we aren't getting anywhere. Come to think of it, some of us even start kicking the seat of the person in front of us in frustration. That little boy was brilliant — it is not always easy to fly at 35,000 feet, especially when most of us don't even get to look out the front window! Like it was for that little boy, the launch can be a thrill, but having the endurance to land the plane at a new destination is daunting.
There was another funny turn of events about three minutes after the boy declared his discovery. The captain came on the intercom and told us the oxygen in the pilot's cabin had been dropping and was now down to zero. He stated, for obvious reasons, we were going to have to make an emergency landing. Privately, I hoped he could hold his breath that long. Yet, somehow, this turn of events also served as an analogy for me. ACA leaders who are working hard to make a positive change in the world can grow weary from time to time. You, as counselors and leaders, can and do grow fatigued while working to make a positive change in the lives of your campers. All of us, at one point or another, feel underappreciated or sense someone is "kicking the back of our seat." My suggestion to all of us when we find we are lacking "oxygen" is to sit down momentarily — refuel, regroup, and reenergize — in order to take off again and complete our journey. It is important to remember the vision achieved is worth the journey completed.
Have a wonderful summer at camp and know that you can make a positive difference in the lives of your campers.

Meeting a need for singletrack in metro Milwaukee
Mountain bikers build trail in Waukesha Co.
Lee Borowski
Wednesday, May 01, 2013 8:39 AM
As any avid Milwaukee-area mountain biker knows, finding enjoyable singletrack through hilly wooded terrain requires a drive of a 30- to 60-minute drive, depending on the direction you travel.
While Lapham Peak is about 20 minutes from the west side of town, the mountain bike trails there are mainly in the open fields west of County Highway C with very little trail in wooded or hilly areas. While the trails are ideal for young families or for those looking for a casual ride, they are nowhere in the class of the trails in the southern or northern Kettle Moraine.
Milwaukee County has almost 30 total miles of legal off-road bike trail while the entire county of Waukesha County only has four miles worth, consisting entirely of trail on the west side of Lapham Peak State Park.
That is about to change because of a cooperative effort in Minooka Park in eastern Waukesha County, where Waukesha Bicycle Alliance has agreed to design, construct and maintain new singletrack for mountain biking. In a cooperative manner, the Milwaukee Metro Mountain Bikers are also heavily involved in the construction of the trails. The point man for the project is Ron Stawicki, vice president of the Waukesha Bicycle Alliance and a mechanic at the Wheel & Sprocket store in Delafield.
For those of you familiar with Minooka, the area is overrun with a convoluted network of trails for other users. Then there's dog parks on the northeast side. Where, you may ask, is there room for new bike trails?
The existing warren of trails is concentrated in the northern and western sections of the park. The southeast sections are relatively undeveloped, and that is where the new mountain bike trails will be go. This area is wooded with rolling terrain and ideal for singletrack, especially of an intermediate nature. And while there is a hiking trail through that area, it is so designed that there is little chance its users will come into contact with riders on the new mountain bike trail.
The stated objective, as stated on
is to include at Minooka Park "singletrack trails (for mountain biking) as well as a multiuse trailhead. There will be trails for a variety of different skill levels, from beginner to advanced, covering a variety of terrain. The singletrack aspect of the trails encourages safe riding speeds."
According to Stawicki, the most difficult Minooka trails will be of an intermediate nature. And that's what's needed in southeast Wisconsin - safe terrain where younger and beginning bikers can develop their bike handling skills. With the loss of mountain biking opportunities at Scuppernong and Greenbush, rolling family-friendly terrain has literally disappeared in this corner of the state.
Access to the Minooka mountain bike trails is from the Picnic Area 5 parking lo. Drive as far south as you can on the park road and you'll run right into it. Presently, there is 1.5 miles of beginner trails in place in Minooka, the result of eight work days last fall.
According to Stawicki, the goal is to finish five to six miles of singletrack over the next couple of years. These trails will be developed using standards for sustainable trails promoted by the International Mountain Bicycling Association. For those of you who aren't familiar with IMBA guidelines, the goal is to avoid building trails that are easily damaged or vulnerable to erosion.
The goal is to create a trail system for mountain bikes, or for any other trail use, that requires little or no maintenance. Stawicki said the goal is to "build once to last a long time."
The county website adds that naturalists have been consulted "to minimize impact on the park's significant natural resources."
If you'd like to pitch in, the trail work crew meets Saturdays in the parking lot of Picnic Area 5 at 9 a.m. and wraps up at noon. For more details, go to
As for trying out the new 1.5-mile beginner trail, I have a suggestion. Instead of biking in circles until you get dizzy, make a loop that includes all the paved roads in the parks. If you enter the park by motor vehicle, you will be expected to buy a daily or annual park sticker. The annual fee for one vehicle is $28 for state residents and $14 for seniors. The resident daily rate is $4.
And make note, as the county website does, that use of the mountain bike trails at Minooka Park is allowed from April 1 to November 31. Snowshoeing will be allowed on the new singletrack from December 1 to March 31.

WANTS LIGHT AIRPLANE SECURITY REVIEWA pair of GA-related
incidents in the past few days has raised the profile of small aircraft
security concerns but even the loudest advocates for a federal review of
the topic admit it probably wouldn't prevent future events of this kind.
Within hours of the Austin incident, Texas Republican Rep. Mike McCaul
was calling it an act of terrorism. "When you fly an airplane into a
federal building to kill people, that's how you define terrorism," said
McCaul, who is the ranking Republican on the House Homeland Security
Committee. McCaul is calling for congressional hearings on the security
of federal buildings with an emphasis on protecting them from attacks
from the air. But he also said "no amount of security can prevent a man
in a plane from taking his own life." The Austin incident and the theft
of a Cirrus SR22 in California a day later may bring fresh scrutiny of
the TSA's decision to back
off implementation of the Large Airplane Security Program, which it
announced two weeks ago More...
LAW BEEF LED TO AUSTIN CRASHA. Joseph Stack's slow
burn may have started more than 20 years ago when he learned that
federal law virtually forbade him from pursuing his career as a software
engineer as an independent contractor rather than an employee. It's now
considered fact that Stack deliberately flew his Piper PA-28-236 Dakota
into an IRS office in Austin, TX last Thursday, killing himself and one
person in the building and injuring two others. Although Stack's
specific problems with the IRS may have been more complicated (reports
say an audit revealed $12,700 in undeclared income by his wife), in his
suicide note, he cited a 1986
law that specifically targets computer industry workers. The law was
intended to ensure that highly-paid freelancers didn't escape paying
mandatory tax and social security deductions and has also been described
as a favor to certain high tech companies by powerful Washington
insiders. The FAA briefly closed Georgetown Airport, where Stack
launched on his apparent suicide mission after a note was found in his
car saying a bomb had been left at the airport.

N2889D, believed to be the crash aircraft, were recorded. (Click to
SR22, UNCERTIFICATED PILOT, LAND AT LAX23-year-old Skye
Turner has been charged after reportedly flying from Montgomery Field,
San Diego, with an expired student pilot certificate, in a stolen Cirrus
SR22, and landing (after a side trip to Palm Springs) safely at LAX. The
landing took place at about 3 a.m., Friday, on a second attempt. By that
time, Turner had been with the aircraft for more than six hours, a
source close to the investigation told the Contra Costa Times. It had
not even been a day since Joseph
Stack's apparently intentional crash into an Austin office building
helped raise concerns about airport security. Concern in Stack's case
arose when early reports inaccurately claimed Stack had stolen his
aircraft. A day later, in San Diego, operators of the Coast Flight
School were left answering questions about how Turner gained access to
an aircraft that belonged to one of their clients and was left in their
charge. As for Turner, his first contact with controllers took place at
about 2:25 a.m., while he was flying above 11,000 feet and 40 miles out,
according to authorities. A spokesman for the controllers union told the
Los Angeles Times the young man seemed "confused and disoriented, but
could follow instruction." Because of his location, controllers working
the tower at LAX transferred Turner to Southern California Terminal
Radar Approach Center in San Diego. And for simplicity those controllers
stayed with him throughout the event and guided him to his landing.
CRIME AT AUSSIE AIRPORTSAn Australian parliamentary
committee has been told that organized crime has walked through gaping
holes in the country's aviation and marine security apparatus to become
entrenched participants in all aspects of security operations, from
baggage handlers up to and including customs agents. Representatives of
unions, airlines and ground support service companies told the committee
that, essentially, criminals have the run of airports in Australia and
use them as key elements of their smuggling and distribution efforts.
"The potential for a trusted insider (airport/airline employees,
contractors, security personnel, retailers and so on) to circumvent
security measures and use their knowledge of the environment is an
ongoing consideration for aviation industry participants," Qantas,
Australia's largest airline, said in its submission. More...
ENERGY'S HYBRID POWERPLANT ASPIRATIONSBye Energy's George
Bye (formerly
of ATG) tells AVweb that some of Thursday's general media
news coverage regarding his company's future electric hybrid aircraft
propulsion plans may have been misleading. Thursday Bye Energy announced
"The Green Flight Project" and Bye displayed a mockup of what he
described as a 90-pound, 168-hp electric propulsion unit and said his
company was working to produce a proof of concept model. Completion of
that design, according to local reports, would take about eight months
and a roughly $1 million investment. Friday, Bye told AVweb that
the potential products he described the prior day may be different from
the proof of concept model he hopes to produce by year-end. In the long
term, Bye hopes to organize technological partners that could one day
produce an aircraft that collects solar energy from photovoltaic wing
panels to supplement the future aircraft's battery/fossil fuel hybrid
powerplant. But by year-end, he expects to have a product with
specifications dictated by its development. That said, Bye believes
hybrid technology could one day significantly lower operating costs
while reducing emissions, noise and maintenance requirements. And that
thinking has not been unique to Bye Energy. More...

FOUNDATION DONATED $200,000 LAST YEARThe Sporty's
Foundation last year donated $200,000 to programs that support youth
in aviation, bringing its total investment in that cause to more than
$500,000 over the past three years, according to the Foundation's annual
report. The formally stated goal of the Foundation is "to fund
initiatives that ensure a healthy future for the general aviation
community by providing young people with information about the many
careers that are available in aviation." Last year, the Foundation's
largest grant went to EAA for the youth aviation initiative, dubbed
"Next Step," that grants Young Eagles guidance and access to Sporty's
Complete Flight Training Course, online (otherwise, a $200
product). Other grants went for flight training and maintenance training
scholarships, the Boy Scouts, Build A Plane, the AOPA Air Safety
Foundation and others. Sporty's operates the Foundation as a 501(c)(3)
organization and welcomes contributions, which are tax-deductible.

After reading nine or 10 blogs referencing the intentional
crash into some IRS offices in Austin, I noticed comments ranging
from the advocacy of more restrictions on general aviation to an
outright ban on GA.
The only relief here is the fact that Joseph
Stack did not steal the Cherokee but was the owner.All pilots and others
involved in general aviation need to be proactive in this matter. Be
polite, but to the point, pointing out that there is no way to prejudge
when any individual is going off the deep end and will take his plane,
car, or truck and commit mayhem.
There undoubtedly will be many
calls from our lawmakers and others to further hobble general aviation
well beyond what is reasonable.

AVweb's "FBO of the Week" ribbon goes to Rectrix Aviation & Aerodrome at Cape
Cod/Southeast Massachusetts Barnstable Municipal Airport (HYA) in
Hyannis, Massachusetts.
AVweb reader Vicente
Collazo-Davila told us how Rectrix came to his rescue
On preparing for an
early evening departure, I was unable to turnover the right engine on my
Navajo. The FBO tried to locate a mechanic at that late hour, but were
unable to do so. They then offered to tow my airplane into their hangar
at no cost to avoid frost and to provide a warm environment in the event
that I was able to find a mecchanic. They went out of their way to make
sure that I and my passengers were taken care of. This was no isolated
event: I fly up there every 7 to 8 weeks, and the service is always
outstanding. Jim the GM does an outstanding job of hiring and training
the best personnel. From the linesmen to the ladies working behind the

This is a quilt I made in honor of the Marine Corps Aviation Cenntenial coming up next year. My husband is a US Marine Pilot and the spouses of his squadron raffled this off to raise some money so that they could do something special for the Marines at the Marine Corps Birhtday Ball this fall. Almost all the Marines had been deployed to the Horn of Africa, Pakistan/Egypt/Libya or Afghanistan throughout 2010 and early 2011. All the aircraft pictured have been or are currently flown by the USMC from 1912 to the present.
I chose a wool batting and stippling to give the quilt a 'fluffy' cloud feeling.
I'm not sure if this really falls under the title of 'art quilt' but I really wanted to share it here.
Hello! Just wanted to welcome you to the QA community. Thank you for posting your quilt. It's lovely!
