Peer review lets students resolve behavior issues
Discipline reports have dwindled at Milwaukee high school
When Kevin Blackman joined the peer jury at James Madison Academic Campus this past school year, the 19-year-old senior worried his classmates would call him a snitch.
After all, he and the other dozen students in the inaugural group would rule on disputes involving classmates accused of disrupting class, bullying or truancy — traditionally the work of an assistant principal.
But being on the jury turned Blackman into a hero, not a snitch, in classmates' eyes, he said.
"We're the role models that the students look up to now,�? he said, and added that the experience prompted changes in his own behavior. "I can't sit here and give my input on how to better yourself if I'm out there doing the same thing you are.�?
The peer jury began at James Madison Academic Campus, or J-MAC, at the start of the spring semester. This group, and the "community circles�? that take place in classrooms throughout Milwaukee Public Schools, are part of a broader effort to address high suspension rates using the principles of restorative justice. This approach to conflict resolution brings victim and offender together with facilitators to discuss the facts of a dispute and its effects.
Late last year, Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm assigned a community prosecutor to work on reducing violence in MPS. Assistant District Attorney David Lerman, long a proponent of restorative justice practices, began working with administrators and staff at J-MAC to help students resolve nonviolent discipline problems.
During mediation, the victim, offender and all jurors sit in a circle and pass around an object, which Lerman calls a talking piece. Using that object as a license to speak, participants take turns answering the same four questions:
• Who do you think got hurt?
• What are your personal feelings about what happened?
• What do you think needs to happen?
• What are you personally willing to do to prevent harm and solve the problem?
By the end, everyone involved should feel the group has reached a reasonable solution, be it an apology to a teacher, community service or detention.
But even more than deciding how a student will make amends, Blackman and his fellow jurors are helping to change the climate at the high school of nearly 1,100 students, Lerman said. After just a semester, the values of compromise, confidentiality and self-revelation are becoming part of the J-MAC's culture, students and staff there said. And that creates a safer learning environment.
School sees results
At the start of the past school year, teachers reported an average of 20 discipline infractions to the office a day, said Assistant Principal Tosha Powell. But toward the end of the school year, that number had decreased significantly.
"I'm probably down to two or three (a day),�? Powell said in early June. "In the last two months or so, I'm saying, 'I don't have any referrals. What's going on?' �?
Teaching young people to listen, take turns speaking and work collaboratively toward solutions is the key, Lerman said.
"If we're not giving young people the opportunity to have real conversations about real issues, then what do we expect?�? he said.
Staff at several Milwaukee public schools said community circles also are effective when rumors are afloat. Teachers tend to know when a potentially violent situation is bubbling just beneath the surface, said Tina Owen, lead teacher at the Alliance School.
She used restorative practices last fall, when four girls at the MPS charter high school were threatening to beat each up other up and even have each other killed. Owen organized a circle with the students and their parents. The girls walked into the room clinging to the adults for protection and left hugging each other, she said.
"It came out that everybody had been exaggerating,�? Owen said of that circle, which used the same questions as the peer jury at J-MAC. "They really don't want the conflict. The circle and the presence of all the people kind of push the truth to come out, and it's very powerful.�?
Restorative practices give students the chance to accept responsibility for their actions, Owen said.
Helping a classmate cope
At Brown Street Academy, a kindergarten-through-fifth-grade school, the staff uses the methods to structure much-needed conversations, said Susan Lex, a social worker there.
This past school year, three fourth-grade girls started out harassing a classmate about her cleanliness and, after Lex intervened, ended up coaching her through a problem with empathy and care.
"When it came out in the circle, the girls were really supportive about helping this girl learn proper hygiene and understand that their bodies were changing,�? she said. "Kids are getting a chance to tell their story.�?
Lex, who has been at Brown Street Academy for 14 years, said she's seen behavioral problems skyrocket recently. Just in the past two academic years, the percentage of students suspended jumped from 9.5% to 16.2%.
The school is one two dozen in MPS targeted by Safe Schools/Healthy Students, an $8.5 million federal grant that expands anti-violence programming, including restorative practices.
Students and staff at the targeted schools will receive training in restorative practices in August. This week Pat LaCocque, a Greenfield Elementary social worker credited with introducing many MPS staffers to the philosophy, will coach participants on how to facilitate the circles.
LaCocque said getting adults to cede some of their control to students is often the hardest part, but teachers get on board once they can envision the results.
"In this day and age, we really have to teach kids how to be social and emotional creatures in addition to moving forward academically,�? she said. "When you have a class that's working as a community, you get so much more done.�?

Yes, it does. A startling orange! It does stain too, not only your underpants, but it can stain the toilet seat and the toilet bowl too. Anything it comes in contact with so void carefully and wipe carefully. You might want to use pantiliners to protect your underclothes. Pyridium really helps with bladder spasms and pain though!

Since 2002 we have explored, played and enjoyed mods of all shapes and sizes just like Warcraft Source. We love games like Counter-Strike: Source that have opened themselves up to modding. Because of communities like Workshop, Nexus, Curse, RTSL, GameBanana and Mod DB, more games support modding today than ever before.
As mods play a bigger role in the future of gaming, we believe it is important to recognize the effort the teams behind the work put in, giving us countless hours of enjoyment while asking nothing in return. We have the power to change our games and that needs to be celebrated to ensure it remains a big part of PC gaming's future.
In 2015, when the paid modding dispute left many gamers and modders worried about the direction the industry is headed. Things have since settled down, but we believe it is important to continue this small tradition to show we are not alone in our love for mods, and the open platforms that embrace them.
Nothing is more motivating than knowing something you've built is being enjoyed by others. So this week if there is a mod you love on Mod DB (or anywhere else), make the effort to shout out to them, mention and link their mod in a tweet, blog, forum or facebook post with the hashtag #modlove2016 (or click the icons above for a pre-built post).

Rivers (Redeeming Love) returns with a page-turning recasting of the story of the prodigal son, here a prodigal daughter. In 1936, Abra Matthews is found as a newborn under a bridge in the small California town of Haven by Pastor Ezekiel Freeman. She's taken in, but never feels as if she quite belongs, so she is susceptible to a beguiling young man who years later lures 17-year-old Abra to Hollywood. There, she becomes starlet Lena Scott, made over by a Pygmalion-like agent who wants everything from her, even while Abra/Lena comes to understand the cost of what she thought she wanted. Rivers nicely evokes 1950s Hollywood, with its gossip columnists, high-wattage movie stars, and ladder-climbing aspirants; Elvis Presley and Lana Turner put in cameos. This story arc will be particularly resonant for Christian readers, but Rivers has the writing ability to reel in others who enjoy a well-told tale of redemption.

Agent: Danielle Egan-Miller, Browne & Miller Literary Associates. (Apr. 22)
In this riveting and highly anticipated saga of temptation, grace, and unconditional love, the beloved author of Redeeming Love delivers big-canvas story-telling at its very best.
To those who matter in Hollywood, Lena Scott is the hottest rising star to hit the silver screen since Marilyn Monroe. Few know her real name is Abra. Even fewer know the price she's paid to finally feel like she's somebody.
To Pastor Ezekiel Freeman, Abra will always be the little girl who stole his heart the night he found her, a wailing newborn abandoned under a bridge on the outskirts of Haven. Zeke and his son, JoshuaAbra's closest friendwatch her grow into an exotic beauty. But Zeke knows the circumstances surrounding Abra's birth have etched scars deep in her heart, scars that leave her vulnerable to a fast-talking charmer who lures her to Tinseltown.
Hollywood feels like a million miles from Haven, and naive Abra quickly learns what's expected of an ambitious girl with stars in her eyes. She discovers too late that fame comes at a devastating price.
Some scenes (even one post-redemption scene) might be considered "almost graphic" by inspirational/Christian romance standards, but that does not mean those readers should shy away. Francine Rivers writes these sorts of scenes in a way that puts the reader in the moment, but allows her to depart without feeling soiled by what she witnessed therein. There is beauty and meaning to be found throughout this emotion-gripping story, even in the contrast between Abra's bedroom experiences.
Longtime fans of Francine Rivers will not be disappointed in this painful, moving, and triumphant tale of redemption. For those who have not yet given this best-selling legend-of-an-author a try, I highly recommend Bridge to Haven.
I must say Francine has done it again. I am always totally blown away by the worlds that her huge novels create. Each one is based around a totally different era and situation and yet she expertly crafts a totally plausible and utterly believable backdrop for her characters. It is obvious why she is a bestselling author, as she knows her craft so well.
Francine often has at the heart of her books the eternal story of redemption and grace. This newest one reminded me a little of Redeeming Love, in that it focused on one girl's journey. She makes so many huge mistakes, but ultimately finds her way home again.
The book begins with Pastor Zeke discovering a little girl, just born, abandoned by the bridge into Haven. Taking her in for her first years, he eventually feels he must give her to another family from his church to raise. Devastated, Abra kicks back against the situation, feeling that it is just another instance of her being abandoned. You can sense the deep hurt on both sides, but also the integrity as the pastor tries to do what he feels is right.
Eventually Abra grows into a beautiful young woman, but when a fast-talking, fast-driving boy turns up in town that both she and her "sister" fall for, it is she that turns her back on all she has known and runs away with him. Abra soon learns life's lessons the hard way as she is used and abused by the boy.
Ending up in Hollywood, Abra becomes a rising acting starbut only due to a controlling agent desperate to make a comeback.
There are so many things that spoke to me in this story. It is obviously about temptation, grace and unconditional love. However it is also about making mistakes and having to live with the consequences, feeling helpless, lost and alone, what it is like to have to let go and watch someone make decisions you know aren't good for them, learning to grow up and take responsibility, having to face those you've hurt (and those people face you). Even though the book was set in 1950s America, the themes are universal and timeless.
I felt drawn to the parts of the novel that I could relate back to situations and circumstances I'd come across in my own life, but it also ultimately urges you to reflect on your own salvation and the fact that we have a loving Father who beckons us with unconditional lovewhatever we've done.
Francine has a way of drawing you into the world she has created and I found myself reading faster and fasteroften missing little bits and having to go back because I was so eager to find out what was going to happen.
If I have one criticism (and I'm really having to scrape the barrel here as I think Francine is an incredible writer) it is that, because her books are often based on the wider Christian story of redemption, they can be a little predictableas you know what is going to win out in the end. However, although the ending of this book tied up a lot of the story in ways I was expecting there was one part I hadn't seen coming at all. So that little "shock" made the read even more pleasurable.
Bridge to Haven is out now from Tyndale House Publishers. If you've never read any of Francine Rivers' books then go and discover them for yourselfyou are in for a real treat.
When Pastor Zeke Freeman finds a newborn baby abandoned under a bridge, he brings the child home and names her Abra. Although his wife, Marianne, is not well, she accepts the responsibility of caring for another child gladly. However, by the time their young charge is five, Marianne dies, and Pastor Zeke gives Abra to another family to raise. The girl is heartbroken and angry. By the time she reaches high school, the teen is already on a troubled path. Hooking up with the charming Dylan, she is off to find fame and fortune in the movie business. Her exotic looks take Hollywood by storm, and she soon realizes how fast life moves in Tinseltown, even in the 1950s. But success exacts a dreadful price, and now all she wants to do is return to Haven and the people who have always loved her. VERDICT This is another compelling and moving story by one of the genre's most honored and talented writers. Abra is realistically crafted, and her story—based on Ezekiel 16—is poignant and bittersweet. Essential for Rivers's many fans. [See author Q&A above.—Ed.]

Yes, you have been with me from birth; from my mother's womb you have cared for me.
Filling his lungs with cool October air, Pastor Ezekiel Freeman started his morning vigil. He had laid out the route on a map when he first came to town. each building brought people to mind, and he upheld them before the Lord, giving thanks for trials they had come through, praying over trials they now faced, and asking God what part he might play in helping them.
He headed for Thomas Jefferson High School. He passed by Eddie's Diner, the students' favorite hangout place. The lights were on inside. Eddie came to the front door. "Mornin', Zeke. How about a cup of coffee?"
Zeke sat at the counter while Eddie made stacks of hamburger patties. They talked high school football, and who might win a scholarship. Zeke thanked Eddie for the coffee and conversation and headed out into the dark again.
He crossed Main Street and walked down to the railroad tracks toward Hobo Junction. He could see a campfire and approached the men sitting around it, asking if they minded if he joined them. Several had been around town long enough to have met Zeke before. Others were strangers, men who looked tired and worn from crisscrossing the country, picking up odd jobs along the way, living hand to mouth. One young man said he liked the feel of the town and hoped to stay. Zeke told him the lumberyard north of town was looking for a loader. He gave the young man a card with his name and the church's address and phone number. "Stop by anytime. I'd like to hear how you're doing."
* * *
The crickets in the tall grass and the hoot owl in a towering pine fell silent as a car pulled into Riverfront Park, stopping near the restrooms. A young woman got out of the driver's seat. The full moon gave her enough light to see where she was going.
Groaning in pain, she bent and put her hand over her swollen belly. The contractions were coming swiftly now, not even a minute between. She needed shelter, some hidden place to give birth. She stumbled through the darkness to the ladies' room, but the door wouldn't budge. Uttering a strangled sob, she turned away, searching.
Why had she driven so far? Why hadn't she checked into a motel? Now it was too late.
* * *
The town square was next on Zeke's route. He prayed for each of the shopkeepers, the council members who had a meeting in the afternoon at the town hall, and the travelers staying at the Haven Hotel. It was still dark when he walked along Second Street and spotted Leland Dutcher's produce truck turning at the mouth of the alley alongside Gruening's Market. Everyone called him Dutch, including his wife, who was in the hospital, suffering through the last stages of cancer. Zeke had sat with her several times and knew she grieved more about her husband's lack of faith than her approaching death. "I know where I'm going. I'm more worried about where Dutch will end up." The man worked six days a week and saw no need to spend the seventh in church. In truth, he was mad at God and didn't want to give Him the time of day.
The truck's brakes squealed briefly as it stopped. Dutch rolled down his window. "Cold morning to be gadding about the streets, Pastor. Have a girlfriend tucked away somewhere?"
Ignoring the sarcasm, Zeke pushed his cold hands into his pockets. "This is the best time to pray."
"Well, hellfire and hallelujah, don't let me stop you from doing your business." He barked a hard laugh.
Zeke came closer. "I saw Sharon yesterday."
Dutch let out his breath. "Then you know she's not doing too well."
"No. She's not." Unless there was a miracle, she didn't have much time left. She would rest easier if she weren't so worried about her husband, but saying so right now would only make Dutch more belligerent.
"Go ahead, Pastor. Invite me to church."
"You already know the invitation is always open."
Dutch wilted slightly. "She's been after me for years. Right now, all I feel like doing is spitting in God's face. She's a good woman, the best I've ever known. If anyone deserves a miracle, Sharon does. Tell me what help God is giving her?"
"Her body will die, Dutch, but Sharon won't." He saw the flicker of pain and knew the man wasn't ready to listen to more. "Want help unloading the truck?"
"Thanks, but I think I can manage on my own." Dutch ground the gears, uttered a vile word, and drove down the alley.
* * *
The child came in a rush of slick warmth, spilling from her body, and the young woman gasped in relief. The iron, clawing embrace was gone, leaving her time to catch her breath. Panting in the shadows beneath the bridge, she looked up between the steel supports to the star-studded sky.
The baby lay pale and perfect in the moonlight, on a dark blanket of earth. It was too dark to see whether it was a boy or girl, but then, what did that matter?
Body feverish, the young woman struggled out of her thin sweater and laid it over the infant.
* * *
A cold breeze was blowing in. Zeke pulled up the collar of his jacket. He walked along Mason, across First and down McMurray, back up Second, toward Good Samaritan Hospital. The bridge came to mind, but it was in the other direction. During summer months, he often crossed over to Riverfront Park, especially when the camp was full of visitors living in pitched tents at the small adjacent campground.
No one would be in the campground this time of year, with temperatures dropping and leaves falling.
The darkness was loosening, though it would still be a while before the sun rose. He should be turning for home, but the bridge loomed in his mind. Zeke changed direction and headed for the bridge and Riverfront Park.
He blew into his hands. He should have worn gloves this morning. He stopped at the corner, debating whether to go to the bridge or make his way home. He always showered and shaved before sitting down to breakfast with Marianne and Joshua. Going to the bridge now would mean he'd get home late.
He felt a sense of urgency. Someone needed help. It would only take ten minutes to walk to the bridge, less if he quickened his pace. He wouldn't have any peace unless he did.
* * *
Shivering violently, the young woman rolled up her car window, knowing she would never be free of guilt and regret. Her hand shook as she turned the key she had left in the ignition. She just wanted to get away from this place. She wanted to cover her head and forget everything that had happened, everything she had done wrong.
Turning the steering wheel, she pressed down too hard on the gas. The car skidded to one side, sending a rush of adrenaline through her. She corrected quickly, as the wheels shot pebbles like bullets into the park. Slowing, she turned right, toward the main road, staring ahead through tear-blurred eyes. She'd go north and find a cheap motel. Then she'd decide how to kill herself.
The breeze moved down over the sandy beach and beneath the bridge. No longer in the protected warmth of a mother's womb, the abandoned baby felt the stinging cold of the world. A soft cry came, then a plaintive wail. The sound carried across the water, but no lights went on in the houses above the river.
* * *
The steel Pratt trusses rose above the trees. Zeke crossed the old river road and took the walkway over the bridge. He stopped halfway across and leaned on the railing. The river rippled beneath him. It had rained a few days ago, leaving the beach smooth and packed. The place was deserted.
Why am I here, Lord?
Zeke straightened, still troubled. He waited another moment and then turned away. Time to head home.
A soft mewling mingled with the sounds of the river. What was it? Holding the rail, he leaned over, peering into the shadows of the abutment. The sound came again. He walked quickly across the bridge and cut across the grassy knoll to the parking lot. Was it a kitten? People often dumped unwanted litters along the road.
He heard the sound again, and this time he recognized it. Joshua had sounded like that when he was an infant. A baby, here? He searched the shadows, heart pounding. He spotted footprints. He went down to the riverbank and followed them across the sand to the gravel beneath the bridge. Pebbles crunched under his feet.
He heard it again, weaker this time, but so close he looked carefully before he stepped. Frowning, he hunkered down and picked up what looked like a discarded sweater. "Oh, Lord ..." A baby lay so still, so small, so white, he wondered if he was too late. A girl. He slipped his hands beneath her. She weighed next to nothing. As he lifted her into the curve of his arm, her arms spread like a tiny bird attempting flight, and she let out a tremulous cry.
Surging to his feet, Zeke yanked open his jacket, popping shirt buttons so he could tuck the baby against his skin. He breathed on her face to warm her up. "Scream, sweetheart; scream as loud as you can. You hold on to life, now. You hear?"
Zeke knew every shortcut and was at Good Samaritan Hospital before the sun came up.
* * *
Zeke came back to the hospital in the middle of the day to see Sharon. Dutch was with her, looking grim and worn. He held his wife's frail hand between his and didn't speak. Zeke spoke to both of them. When Sharon held out her hand, he took it and prayed for her and for Dutch.
He couldn't leave without going back to the nursery. He shouldn't have been surprised to see Marianne standing outside the window, her arm around five-year-old Joshua. He felt tenderness and pride well up inside him. Their son was all gangly arms, long skinny legs with knobby knees and big feet.
Joshua put his hands on the glass. "She's so little, Daddy. Was I that little?" The tiny baby girl slept soundly in a small hospital bassinet.
"No, Son. You were a whopping nine pounds." The look on Marianne's face concerned him. He took her hand. "We should head home, honey."
"Thank God you found her, Zeke. What would have happened to her if you hadn't?" Marianne looked at him. "We should adopt her."
"You know we can't. They'll find someone to take her." He tried to lead her away.
Marianne wouldn't budge. "Who better than us?"
Joshua joined in. "You found her, Daddy. Finders, keepers."
"She's not a penny I found on a sidewalk, Son. She needs a family."
"We're a family."
"You know what I mean." He cupped Marianne's cheek. "You've forgotten what it was like to take care of a new baby."
"I'm up to it, Zeke. I know I am. Why shouldn't she be ours?" She drew back. "Please don't look at me like that. I'm stronger than you think." Her eyes filled before she turned. "Just look at her. Doesn't she break your heart?"
He did look, and his heart softened. But he had to be practical.
"We should go."
Marianne squeezed his hand. "Pure, genuine religion in the sight of God is shown by caring for widows and orphans."
"Don't use Scripture against me when it's you I'm trying to protect."
Joshua looked up. "Protect from what, Daddy?"
"Nothing." Marianne gave Zeke a quelling glance. "It's just an idea your daddy got into his head a long time ago. He'll get over it. God put her in your arms, Zeke. Don't tell me He didn't." Marianne looked at him with doe eyes. "We have our boy. A little girl would make everything perfect. Haven't I said so?"
She had. Marianne had always yearned for more children, but the doctor had warned them that her heart, damaged by childhood rheumatic fever, wasn't strong enough to survive another pregnancy.
Zeke felt his resolve dissolving. "Marianne. Please. Stop." It had taken months for her to recover after Joshua's birth. Caring for another newborn would be far too taxing for her.
"We can be foster parents. Let's bring her home as soon as we can. If it's too much, then ..." Her eyes grew moist. "Please, Zeke."
* * *
Ten days later, Dr. Rubenstein signed the release forms for little Jane Doe and placed her in Marianne's arms. "You'll make fine foster parents."
After the first three nights, Zeke started to worry. Marianne was up every two hours, feeding the baby. How long before her health suffered? Though she looked exhausted, she couldn't have been happier. Sitting in a rocking chair, Marianne cradled the baby in her arms and fed her a bottle of warm milk. "She needs a real name, Zeke. A name full of promise and hope."
"Abra means 'mother of nations.'" He said it before he could stop himself.
Marianne laughed. "You wanted her all along, didn't you? Don't pretend you didn't."
How could he not? Still, he felt a jab of fear. "We're foster parents, Marianne. Don't forget that. If things become too much for you, we'll call the caseworker. We'll have to give Abra back."
"Give her back to whom? The caseworker wants this to work. And I don't think there's anyone in town who'd take Abra away from us now. Do you?" Peter Matthews, a teacher at the local elementary school, and his wife, Priscilla, had expressed interest early on, but with an infant of their own, they had agreed Abra should stay with the Freemans if they were able to handle it.
Marianne set the empty bottle aside and raised the baby to her shoulder. "We'll need to save money so we can add another bedroom. Abra won't be a baby for long. She'll be in a crib, then a regular bed. She'll need a room of her own."
There was no reasoning with her. All of Marianne's motherly instincts had kicked in, but each day wore her down a little more. Catnapping throughout the day helped, but catching a few minutes of sleep here and there wouldn't be enough to keep her healthy. She was already tousle-haired and ashen, with dark circles under her eyes. "You sleep in tomorrow morning. I'll take her with me."
"In the dark?"
"Plenty of streetlights, and I know the town like the back of my hand."
"She'll be cold."
"I'll bundle her up." He folded a blanket into a triangle, plucked Abra from Marianne's arms, tied it around his waist and neck, and straightened. "See? She's snug as a bug in a rug." And right next to his heart, where she'd been from the first moment he laid eyes on her.
Sometimes Abra fussed when he took her out for his early morning walks, and he would sing hymns to her. "'I come to the garden alone, while the dew is still on the roses ...'" She'd sleep for a while, and stir when Zeke stopped in at Eddie's Diner or paused to talk with Dutch.
"Good of you to take on that little one. Isn't she a cutie, with all that red hair." Eddie ran a fingertip over Abra's cheek.
Even hard-hearted Dutch smiled as he leaned out the window of his truck to peer at her. "Looks like a little angel." He drew back. "Sharon and I always wanted kids." He said it like it was another black mark against God. Sharon had passed away, and Zeke knew the man was grieving. When Abra's tiny fingers grasped Dutch's pinkie, he looked ready to cry. "Who'd leave a baby under a bridge, for heaven's sake? Good thing you happened by."
"It was no accident, me going there that morning."
"How so?" Dutch's engine rumbled in neutral.
"I felt impelled to go. God does that sometimes."
Dutch looked pained. "Well, I won't speculate. No question that little girl needed someone that morning or she'd be dead and buried by now." Like Sharon, his eyes said.
"If you ever want to talk, Dutch, just call."
"Better just give up on me."
"Sharon didn't. Why should I?"
As Abra grew, she slept longer between feedings, and Marianne got more sleep. Even so, Zeke didn't give up carrying Abra on his walks. "I'll keep at it until she sleeps through the night." Getting up every morning before the alarm, he'd dress and peek into the children's bedroom and find Abra wide-awake, waiting for him.
* * *
Even the demands of an easy child could wear on someone, and Zeke saw the toll on Marianne.
When he came home one afternoon in June and found Marianne asleep on the couch while Abra, now four years old, dunked her doll up and down in the toilet bowl, he knew things were going to have to change. "You're exhausted."
"Abra can get into something faster than I can say, 'Jack Sprat could eat no fat.'"
"You can't go on like this, Marianne."
Others in the congregation noticed how tired Marianne looked and voiced concern. Priscilla Matthews spoke to them one Sunday after services. Her husband had put up gates so their four-year-old, Penny, couldn't escape the living room. "The whole room is one big playpen right now, Marianne. I gave up and packed away everything breakable. Why don't you have Zeke bring Abra over a couple afternoons a week? You can rest without worry or interruptions for a few hours."
Marianne resisted, but Zeke insisted it was a perfect solution.
* * *
Zeke bought lumber, nails, tar paper, and shingles and started work on a bedroom off the back of the house. Nine-year-old Joshua sat on the boards, holding them steady while Zeke sawed. One of the parishioners added wiring for electricity. Another built a platform bed with pullout drawers and helped Zeke put in windows overlooking the backyard.
Though Zeke was less than enthusiastic about his son moving into a narrow, converted-back-porch bedroom, Joshua loved his "fort." His best buddy, Davy Upton, came over to spend the night, but the quarters were so tight, Zeke ended up pitching a tent for them on the back lawn. When he came back inside, he slumped into his easy chair. "The fort is too small."

- Utility stocks, among the year's top performing sectors in the market, are sharply lower today - a bad sign, says Weeden & Co. head researcher Michael Purves, who believes now is the time to reduce or hedge utility holdings such as the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLU -1.9%).
- Ultra-low bond yields have made utility stock payouts look good by comparison., but valuations have been moving up; Purves says the rally has put XLU's P/E ratio for the next 12 months at 17.4x, near a 10-year high.
- Investors ought to "start to take profits, given the run was getting long in the teeth," Purves writes.
- The top 10 XLU holdings are all lower today: DUK -2.5%, NEE -1.7%, D -1.9%, SO -1.4%, EXC -2.8%, AEP -2%, SRE -1.7%, PPL -1.8%, PCG -1%, PEG -2.8%.

- PPL Corp. (NYSE:PPL) welcomes yesterday's ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit that a New Jersey law promoting construction of new power plants by subsidizing development of new generation in the state is invalid because it oversteps the state's regulatory authority.
- The judges ruled that the federal government has exclusive control over interstate rates for capacity payments to electric power generators, upholding a decision in a lawsuit filed by PPL EnergyPlus and other competitive electricity suppliers after the legislation was enacted in 2011.
Sep. 4, 2014, 6:55 PM
- PPL Corp.'s (NYSE:PPL) says its agreement to sell its hydroelectric facilities to NorthWestern Energy (NYSE:NWE) cleared a major milestone when the Montana Public Service Commission voted to prepare an order approving NWE's request to purchase the facilities.

Jul. 31, 2014, 8:58 AM
- PPL Corp.'s (NYSE:PPL) Q2 earnings and revenues easily beat Wall Street estimates despite substantial Y/Y declines in both.
- Per-share earnings from ongoing operations in the supply segment - primarily the competitive electricity generation and energy marketing operations of PPL Energy Supply - rose to $0.06 from $0.01 a year ago, benefiting from unrealized gains on commodity positions and higher eastern U.S. margins.
- Earnings from ongoing operations from PPL's U.K. regulated operations fell $0.02 to $0.33/share, mostly due to higher U.S. income taxes and the adverse impact of weather on utility revenue.
- Raises its FY 2014 EPS guidance to $2.20-$2.40 from earlier $2.15-$2.30, citing the strong performance of the competitive energy supply business through the first half of the year.
- Also proposes a major new regional transmission project it says would enhance electric grid security while lowering electricity costs for consumers in the mid-Atlantic region.

Jun. 10, 2014, 7:55 AM
- PPL Corp. (PPL) will spin off part of its U.S. power generation business into a venture with P-E firm Riverstone Holdings, confirming earlier speculation.
- The new Talen Energy Corp. will rank as the third-largest publicly traded independent U.S. electricity producer, operating 15,320 MW of capacity in the U.S.
- The spinoff allows PPL to shed 12 stations in Pennsylvania and Montana without cutting this year's forecast EPS of $2.15-$2.30; PPL says it will re-focus on its "high performing" utility assets in Kentucky and Pennsylvania, and the U.K., which accounted for more than 85% of last year's operating earnings.
- PPL shareholders will own 65% of Talen and Riverstone the remainder, but PPL will have no control or equity in the spinoff.
Jun. 3, 2014, 3:14 PM
- PPL Corp. (PPL +1.1%) is in talks to sell a stake in its electric power subsidiary to P-E firm Riverstone Holdings as part of a tax-free spinoff of the unit, Bloomberg reports.
- The deal reportedly would have PPL spinning out PPL Energy Supply to shareholders and then merging it with a smaller group of Riverstone-owned power facilities in Texas and New Jersey.
- The combined entity would have a market value of $3B-$4B and operate electrical plants with ~12K MW of capacity.
May 27, 2014, 2:30 PM
- The utility sector is among the day's best performers after the annual capacity auction at PJM Interconnection, which runs the largest U.S. power grid, forecasts payments to electricity producers will jump to $120/MW-day vs. $59.37 in the previous 12-month period and expectations of $75-$100.
- The higher capacity price is a boon to power producers, which rely on the payments as baseline revenues; the auction results are viewed as another endorsement of natural gas.
- The outlook is particularly favorable for Exelon (EXC +3.9%) and FirstEnergy (FE +6%), according to S&P's Aneesh Prabhu; PPL Corp. (PPL +2.9%) also benefits, especially considering that the price in its region was expected to fall.
- The price for Public Service Electric & Gas' (PEG -0.2%) utility territory in northern New Jersey was set at $215/MW-day, down from $219 a year earlier.

May 23, 2014, 6:35 PM
- Regional transmission organization PJM says its recent auction to procure power supplies for 2017-18 resulted in a clearing price for resources - which includes generation, annual demand response and energy efficiency - which rose to $120/MW-day for most of its deliverability area.
- PJM, which coordinates the movement of wholesale electricity in all or parts of 13 states and D.C., says the auction continued an overall trend toward more gas-fired generation and increasing diversity of resources.
- PPL, Exelon (EXC), American Electric Power (AEP), Duke Energy (DUK), Dominion Resources (D) and FirstEnergy (FE) are all up ~1% AH.
- Earlier, Barclays downgraded the entire electric sector of the U.S. high-grade corporate bond market to underweight, saying it sees long-term challenges to electric utilities from solar energy which aren't yet priced in.

ask staff to be friendlier
I was supposed to get a refund for my troubles with the broken trailer and the guy working told me no and repeatedly told me that he hadn't seen a refund since 94.
Your website screwed up my reservation. I had to delete it and create a new one. Staff were knowledgable and helpful but you need to address website bugs.
John and the staff are very nice people
Great customer service
The service I received was efficient and professional. The van I rented was clean and served the purpose for my use. I will come back next time if I need to rent a van/truck in this neighborhood.
$20.00 for the truck is a good price but 80 cents a mile is very expensive. $300.00 just to take a small load from Bakersfield Ca. to the cost is outrageous.
Have a motorcycle trailer available for one way use. To much to pay for a utility trailer when motorcycle trailer not available for one way use. Won't use a uhaul trailer AGAIN!!!
The service was outstanding! I would return
Excellent Customer Service! Which is rare these days.
Reserved online which made the transaction quick and easy.
Just keep doing what your doing!!
On the online reservation there was a note saying we could return the dolly at any u-haul location. we were turned down at the one on Coffee Rd in Bakersfield; they said we HAD to return it at the one stated on the reservation. It would be a lot better if you could return equipment to any location. Better convenience for the customer
The agent on duty did not have a walk-around inspection of the unit with me before I took it out. I didn't think about it until the next day. There were no problems, but I should have done an inspection with him prior to taking the trailer.
John was great, very helpful
The staff was very helpfull and equipment was clean.
Get rid of those Tiger grips for cardboard boxes. Completely useless and offensive product. It is obvious you are trying to rip people off with those
Technically this is not the location that I'm reviewing so poorly, it's only the location that we ended up at after a full morning of trying to take it to the Santa Fe location. They never opened! We tried to take it back three times, I was so late to a dental appointment after waiting for this location to open that I was bumped to a later time which screwed up my tax appointment, that I later had to go back WITH THIS TRAILER ATTACHED TO MY TRUCK! After the third time of trying to go back to the Santa Fe location I gave up and then found this location and hoped they'd take it back, which they did and it was fine, but how unprofessional can this get? It made U-Haul as a company look sloppy and sketchy. Like we can't trust this company, ridiculous. Started off at 8:00 am and didn't get it returned until after 11.
No recommendations for improvement. Great experience and immaculate equipment.
The gentle man was very nice
It was a very enjoyable experience. I have no complaints.
My only problem was that I was not told that I needed the ball before I got there I thought all U-haul's had the balls to purchase, so I had to go out and buy one somewhere else and that put me behind. Otherwise very great service.

If you already have a unibody MacBook Pro, you will already have most of the great features offered in this new model. However, if you're a switcher, a new buyer, or have one of Apple's older notebook models, this is a fine choice, though gamers should shy away from this model.

Improving Financial Health
Have you ever wondered if success with your finances is just a lottery ticket? One person gets a ticket and no matter what he does he is successful and another person gets a ticket and no matter what he does he's doomed to failure?
The Wall Street Journal recently reported that 70% of Americans live paycheck-to-paycheck, regardless of income.
USA Today recently reported that 76% of Americans have less than 6 months' living expenses in emergency reserves and 24% of Americans have NO emergency reserves at all.
Financially, we spend most of our time making money, but little to no time learning how to master the use of it. We help our clients reduce their stress around money by showing them how to keep more of what they earn, thus increasing their monthly cash flow. We do this by identifying areas where they may be transferring their money to others unknowingly and unnecessarily, and developing a strategy that reduces or eliminates those transfers. Some wealth transfers are avoidable and others can only be minimized.
We find that people tend to lose money in the following areas:
- How they choose to structure and pay for their mortgage
- How they choose to pay their taxes
- How they choose to save for retirement
- How they choose to save for college
- How they choose to utilize consumer credit and pay for big ticket purchases
Plugging Holes
There are two ways to fill up a bucket that has holes in it. The first is to plug the holes and the bucket will fill up, even if the flow is a trickle. The second is to pour more in. Which one of those two financial strategies do you feel the financial institutions have had you employing in your current financial position?
We believe that we can have a bigger impact on your financial future by helping you avoid the losses rather than helping you pick the apparent winning investments. It makes little sense to have a million dollars only to discover you lost a million along the way.
Strategy Makes The Difference
We offer the same products as other firms. However, financial success is not achieved through a product. Financial success is achieved through the implementation of, and adherence to, a comprehensive financial strategy. The financial products that captivate our attention are usually the products that promise to pay the highest rates of return. However, the products that offer safety, liquidity, preferential tax treatment, leverage, and collateral opportunities may be far more valuable.

Great service! Order was 100% correct and on time. Excellent follow up to make sure everything was okay.
Great to get off an airplane, come to our room and receive the groceries in a very timely manner. Had small children that loved the snacks we purchased! Getting bottles of water was wonderful also. We definitely would do this again and recommend it to others.
Excellent service. Very effective communications about order status. Everything was very fresh. We will definitely utilize this service in the future.

Spring, TXView Tutor
I'm a graduate of Rice University, a current student at SHSU, and a member of the Texas Army National Guard. I have 2 years of experience tutoring at General Academic, Inc. in Houston and The Austin Learning Center in Austin. I specialize in math and physics, but am open to tutoring almost any subject.
Huntsville, TXView Tutor
...Additionally in mechanical engineering topics. My goal is to not just teach my students how to memorize a problem, my goal is to ensure my students understand the topic so they can move past a tutor. My preference is to meet at bookstores or coffee shops, however we can discus the best options.
...So I decided whenever I had spare time I would try and be a tutor. However, being a tutor wasn't easy in college with the different responsibilities from high school. So after taking three semesters in one year (spring, fall, summer) I decided to take a break for a semester and earn tuition.
I'm Arnold, male with a true passion for mathematics and science. I have been tutoring and have had great success with my students, ranging from middle school and non-traditional students. I began tutoring by helping other students in my high school classes.

It could work, but it would probably require changing the sensitivity of the buttons. My first guess would be changing the thresholds in "Section C" of the example code. I do not know for sure though.
