Season Review
Gaining traction under a new head coach, the Linfield women's lacrosse program began the Kat Enders era with positive results. A cultural shift toward greater team unity was clearly evident throughout the 2015 season.
"We built a strong foundation of hard work and a team-first attitude that will carry on for years to come," said Enders, a Portland native and graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University. "When we faced adversity, we were able to take it in stride and attack things with a very positive attitude."
Though Linfield completed the season without the realization of a single team victory, the prevailing attitude remained upbeat.
"Players were able to grow individually but also as a unit," said Enders. "Our team chemistry was consistently strong but on the field it was easy to see it improve as the season went on. As the season progressed we were able to implement more complex team strategy and rely more heavily on the individual skills of each player on the field."
The Wildcats' best chance to collect a win came during the team's Spring Break trip to Ohio. Against Hiram, Linfield rallied from a four-goal deficit in the second half, eventually tying the score with only 9 seconds remaining to force overtime. While the 'Cats ultimately came up short, Enders felt as though the match really embodied the team's competitive spirit.
Two seniors, Halee Helgerson and Chas Tittle, led the way in scoring. Helgerson totaled 27 goals and assisted on six other scores to finish with 33 points. Tittle cashed in a career-best 17 goals while adding three assists. A third senior, Rebecca Kropp, notched 14 goals and two assists. And despite missing seven matches due to injury, Kelsey Dammarell was a prominent offensive contributor, picking up 16 goals and two assists.
At the end of the season, Helgerson, Kropp and Dammerall all received Northwest Conference all-star recognition.
"Kelsey was able to come back 'guns-a-blazin' and finish the season strong," praised Enders. "The team was glad to have her back and also reminded how lucky we are to be healthy enough to participate in athletics."
Helgerson, Tittle and Kropp developed into fine team leaders as the year wore on. They helped forge a new vision for the future of the program, noted Enders. Their contributions, plus those of fellow senior Emma Sandaine, "leave a legacy as we move forward."
Competing in at least half of the Wildcats' 16 matches, nine first-year players gained valuable experience.
Next season, Linfield will "benefit from having a deeper bench," Enders pointed out. "We have a great class of first-year students coming from both Oregon and Washington state that will help us grow in numbers and also lacrosse IQ."

Our trade avenue
Our daughter has been working for the past year in China for two companies involved in "joint venture" programs, one of the several means by which the Chinese government is allowing free-enterprise economic development to occur there ("Is everybody happy?" June 27). We just returned from a two-week trip to China during which we visited our daughter. Her fluency in Mandarin allowed us to have meaningful conversations with a number of people, whom we found to be wonderfully welcoming, friendly, kind, and helpful to us, and very obviously happy to be having contact with U.S. citizens. Although there can be no debate about the fact that China's record on human rights is dismal, to limit trade and/or contact with China in any way would compromise the avenue we have that could influence policy. - Carolyn Males, Evanston, Ill.
You are lying bigots ...
Gene Edward Veith has done a good job of continuing the lying and bearing false witness against me and my same-gendered brothers and sisters by so-called "traditional family values" ("Filtering out morality," June 27). The AFA Web site needs to be CyberPatroled. - Jay Martin, Tupelo, Miss.
... unAmerican bigots ...
I'm somewhat shocked by your editorial on CyberPatrol. The AFA Web site is not pro-family, they are anti-family. They teach people to despise and denigrate their gay and lesbian relatives, friends, and neighbors. This is not pro-family. This is also not Christian. Nor is it American. This modern version of Christianity with its laws and rules and regulations, with its judgmentalist attitudes, needs to be blocked to prevent impressionable children from seeing it and accepting the message of division and hate. - Ken Scott, Honolulu, Hawaii
... and anti-gay bigots
I find this controversy over CyberPatrol very interesting. However, I would like to respectfully suggest to you, who support anti-gay policies and sentiments, that just because a prejudice is based on religious doctrine does not make it right. - Frances Del Rio, Oakland, Calif.
Roosevelt swoon
While I usually admire Mr. Olasky's work, I was a bit surprised today to read his fawning piece on Teddy Roosevelt ("Here's to you, Mr. Roosevelt," June 27). Mr. Olasky fails even to consider whether the United States had any business declaring war on Spain. Much of the war fervor whipped up against Spain had been the product of admittedly false reporting by the competing newspapers of Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst. - William L. Anderson, Auburn, Ala.
He still inspires
Thank you for running the recent articles about Theodore Roosevelt. He was a man of remarkable integrity and one worthy to be emulated. Last week, the crew of aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt celebrated the 100th anniversary of the taking of San Juan Hill. We reflected on TR's qualities as a leader. Those qualities inspire and lead still in the fight to preserve liberty worldwide. - Jeff D. Hillman, POFC, USS Theodore Roosevelt
Hide true doctrine
I found irony in your article on BYU's firing of the feminist professor who advocated praying to a mother in heaven ("No PC at BYU," June 23). Mormon apostle Bruce McKonkie reaffirms the Mormon belief in a "Heavenly Mother." He also quotes an 1843 Mormon hymn that includes a prayer to her. I'm divided whether BYU took the action because they don't understand their own doctrine or because they would rather appear Christian than uphold their distinctives. - Warren Lewis, Veradale, Wash.
Lawyer jokes
I found Janie B. Cheaney's recent article, "Power or attorneys" (June 27), to be well-reasoned and accurately targeted. She scores direct hits with her statements regarding the consequences of championing legality above the law and of attempting to have a meaningful legal framework absent the necessary moral framework. - Craig Durham, Murrieta, Calif.

Anyone who was waiting for the first goal of the 2014 Amway Canadian Championship will have to be a bit more patient after the Ottawa Fury and FC Edmonton played to a 0-0 draw on Wednesday night in the first leg of the preliminary round.
In a blustery Keith Harris Stadium, the two North American Soccer League sides battled both the conditions and each other as neither team could break the deadlock. A fast, hard artificial surface combined with some physical play to create a chippy game that saw both sides struggle to create chances.
Edmonton probably had the better of the play on the night, but the home team had a few half-chances of its own that probably would have been more dangerous under different conditions. Six yellow cards were shown by referee Geoff Gamble, although he probably could have handed out more discipline in the second half alone as players increasingly took out their frustrations on each other.
While the match seemed destined to end scoreless, Edmonton very nearly stole the result deep into stoppage time as striker Frank Jonke was denied by Fury goalkeeper Devala Gorrick. Jonke's point-blank shot from 10 yards out was met by the onrushing Gorrick, whose quick reflexes kept the Eddies from scoring a vital away goal.
The second leg is set for Apr. 30 at Edmonton's Clarke Stadium, with the winner advancing to the semifinal round to meet reigning Voyageurs Cup champion Montreal Impact.

In his latest blog post Space Exploration ... design is, Grant Martin said that ESL synthesis is an important tool in the overall design flow. Grant also mentioned that this capability opens new opportunities for the development of design space exploration tools that link into the various implementation flows from various vendors and for various alternatives and allow people to really explore space effectively. For a single IP, Cadence C-to-Silicon Compiler can run multiple synthesis tasks for different set of constraints, save the results and allows the user to choose the best option. Another complimentary tool, InCyte Chip Estimator, allows you to select different combination of IPs and quickly estimate your IC size, power, performance, and cost. You can easily combine these two methodologies together by taking different scenarios of your high-level synthesis results and run what-if analysis at the chip level that includes your re-usable IPs and the new IP/block that has just been created in SystemC. This capability allows you to explore different design options and trade-offs with different target vendors and IP combinations together with your own newly created IP without the need to run full layout for your chip.
Is this solution valuable to you?

In 2013, the United States Mint will honor the centennial of Girl Scouts of the USA with the minting of a commemorative coin. The designs of the coins are emblematic of the centennial of the establishment of Girl Scouts of the USA.
The legislation authorizing the 2013 Girl Scouts of the USA Centennial Commemorative Coin Program
(Public Law 111-86)
(Act), signed into law on October 29, 2009, requires the Secretary
of the Treasury to mint and issue up to 350,000 silver dollar coins in commemoration of
the centennial anniversary of Girl Scouts of the USA. As authorized, the United States
Mint will produce silver dollar coins in proof and uncirculated qualities. The Act was passed in honor of Girl Scouts and the achievements of the millions of women across the Nation whose lives have been influenced by Girl Scouting.
Surcharges from this commemorative coin program are authorized to be paid to Girl Scouts of the USA, which will make funds available for Girl Scout program development and delivery.
The Girl Scouts Organization
The Girl Scouts organization was established on March 12, 1912, by Juliette Gordon Low in Savannah, Georgia. It was chartered by the U.S. Congress in 1950. Today, there are more than 3.2 million members throughout the U.S. and its territories. Members of Girl Scouts of the USA are part of an international family of 10 million girls and adults. Today, it is the world's pre-eminent leadership organization dedicated solely to girls, building character and skills for success.
Coin Designs
The obverse (heads side) design was inspired by both the historical and contemporary aspects of Girl Scouting and by its mission statement: "Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place." It depicts three girls who represent the different ages and diversity of Girl Scouts of the USA. Inscriptions include COURAGE, CONFIDENCE and CHARACTER, key elements of the Girl Scouts mission statement. The 100th anniversary Trefoil symbol signifies the centennial anniversary. Additional inscriptions are 2013, LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST.
The reverse (tails) design depicts the iconic Profiles of Girl Scouts of the USA with the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, $1 and GIRL SCOUTS.
Both designs were approved by the Department of the Treasury on July 20, 2012, at the recommendation of the United States Mint, after consultation with Girl Scouts of the USA and the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, as well as review by the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee.
Coin Specifications:
As you know, the 2013 Girl Scouts of the USA Centennial Silver Dollar will go on sale February 28, 2013. We are pleased to announce the United States Mint has set the price, which can be found below.
Q: How many of the coins will be made?
A: The United States Mint will produce a maximum of 350,000 across all product options. The silver dollar coins will be issued in both uncirculated and proof qualities and are legal tender.
Q: What's the difference between the uncirculated and proof qualities?
A: Proof quality commemorative coins are made from highly polished planchets (coin blanks) and dies and are struck more than once to accent the design. Proof coins receive the highest quality strike possible and can be distinguished by their mirrored background and frosted foreground. Uncirculated quality commemorative coins are manufactured using the same process as circulating coins but with quality enhancements such as high coining force and early strikes from dies. To learn more about commemorative coins, visit the United States Mint's program information pages.
Q: How much will the coins be sold for?
A: The price of the coin will be $55.95 for uncirculated and $59.95 for proof. Orders received by 5 p.m. March 29, 2013 will take advantage of introductory pricing at $54.95 for proof quality and $50.95 for uncirculated quality. Shipping is $4.95 per order.
Q: How do I purchase a coin from the United States Mint?
A: On February 28, 2013, you can either call 1-800-USA-MINT (872-6468) or order online. Feel free to request a brochure with an order card directly from the United States Mint, by calling the above phone number.
Q: Will Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) benefit from the sale of these coins?
A: GSUSA is authorized to receive a surcharge of $10 per coin sold after the United States Mint has recouped all of their costs and has verified that GSUSA has recorded matching funds equal to the surcharges GSUSA is to receive from the United States Mint. Per the legislation passed by the Congress authorizing the coin, surcharges received by GSUSA are to be used for Girl Scout program development and delivery. Plans for specific use of the surcharges will be discussed as part of FY2014 planning and budgeting.

Trade union leaders have been warning for some time now that it would be pensions reform — not pay freezes or job cuts — that could prove the trigger for widespread public sector strikes this year.
UK News
Raising the pension age
The Conservatives say they plan to raise the retirement age for men to 66 from 65 by 2016 if they win power, a measure that could raise 13 billion pounds to help plug the huge shortfall in the public finances.
Level the playing field to bring back 'girl power'
Whatever happened to "girl power"? The phrase became a cultural phenomenon after the formation of the Spice Girls pop band in 1994, and was adopted as the mantra for millions of girls, even making it into the Oxford English Dictionary.
Pensioners ripped off by "antithesis of plain English"
The "open market option": it sounds like complex financial jargon. But it's certainly worth knowing about. For, when it comes to retirement, it could boost your income by almost 25,000 pounds.
Long life? It could be seriously bad for your wealth
Long life: it might be seen as a blessing, but increasing longevity poses one of the biggest risks to our financial wellbeing.

Farah Khan, who has choreographed Kareena Kapoor for "Dabangg 2" song "Fevicol Se", says the actress seems to be happier after her wedding with Saif Ali Khan.
Farah and Kareena have worked together before, but the former feels their bonding became stronger while shooting for the song.
"Kareena's bonding with me became good after the song. She is also relaxed and is in a happier state after marriage. She is hardworking," Farah said at the launch of a new channel, Nick Juniors Tuesday.
Farah says both Kareena and Salman Khan were very supportive during the shoot.
"Kareena has put in a lot of effort. She rehearsed a lot for it. In fact, she let me do whatever I wanted for the costumes and look," said the choreographer.
"Salman was learning everything in one rehearsal. The shooting of the movie was over and the song was at the end, so everyone was relaxed. It was fun shooting in the end," Farah added.
After Kareena's song "Halkat jawaani" from "Heroine" became a hit, Farah wanted to give the actress a completely different look in "Fevicol se".
"Manish Malhotra and I were aware that she did 'Halkat jawaani' a few months before and we wanted to give her a different look. I wanted her to look a little mismatched and I also didn't give her too much make-up," she said.
Farah is happy that she has had an interesting 2012.
"(The year) 2012 was good. 'Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi' gave me good reviews and 'Fevicol se' has also became a hit. Ups and downs come in every year, but overall it was not bad," she said.
Farah's new film "Happy New Year" will go on floors next year and its leading lady is yet to be disclosed.

This is a guest post from Andy Sernovitz — CEO of WordofMouth.org and SocialMedia.org and New York Times bestselling author of "Word of Mouth Marketing: How Smart Companies Get People Talking."
You've got a more important issue
Too often, incentives for reviews are used by lazy marketers who are avoiding a bigger problem: They're just not doing anything remarkable enough to earn word of mouth. If you have to bribe people to say something nice about you, your money will do more for you if you invest it in making your product, your service, and your customer experience better.
Beloved companies don't have to pay for recommendations
The most loved products and companies out there — the ones with glowing 5-star reviews? They didn't buy those recommendations. They earned them with fantastic products and incredible service. That's the stuff that gets your customers to tell other people about you — not coupons, cash, or free passes.
You can't fake it
Consumers know the difference. When you incentivize reviews, sure, you may get more — but they're never as genuine, as helpful, or as powerful as honest love from raving customers. Once they find out even some of your recommendations are fake, they won't trust the real ones either.
And besides, it's illegal
You quickly get into complicated legal water when you start incentivizing things like this, especially when you're talking cash or gifts. The FTC has strict laws for disclosing who you work for, if you were paid, and if it's an honest opinion. It's just not worth risking an embarrassing fine and a ruined reputation — all for a few more reviews.

Billings Farm features Estonian filmDecember 29,2012WOODSTOCK The Billings Farm and Museum will show the 2009 documentary Disco and the Atomic War today at 3 p.m.
The documentary takes place in Soviet-occupied Estonia where the Soviet Union waged an information war against Western pop culture and lost. The film shows how Finnish television influenced Estonians even when the Soviet authorities blocked it.
Estonians did not care about Vladimir Ilyich Lenin or Karl Marx. Instead, Estonians wanted to know who shot J.R. Ewing from the hit TV series Dallas and the latest disco moves.
The movie is subtitled in English and runs 80 minutes. For tickets, call 457-2355 or visit www.billingsfarm.org/filmfest.

The proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline is a disaster waiting to happen. The route of migrating endangered whooping cranes, of which there are more than 70 breeding pairs, shadows the proposed route as the whooping crane travels back and forth from its Canadian breeding grounds to the Louisiana Delta.
Tar sand oil is very corrosive and very dirty. It is the most toxic of all petroleum products.
With the planet already in trouble from rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels from the burning of fossil fuels, is it really worth the probable extinction of whooping cranes to build this monument to oil company greed?
Are we to allow the perpetuation of Nigerian Delta-like toxic oil waste from spills, of which Keystone suffered from 12 times in the past year, not to mention the endangerment to Canada's boreal forest through toxic waste from tar sand extraction?
The easy answer is a resounding "no."

Two Campbellsville men were arrested and charged with robbery following an incident Saturday.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, two men were walking along Handley Avenue at about 1:05 a.m. when a vehicle pulled up. According to the two men, two other men, later identified at James Robert Tungate, 21, and Edgar Tyler Lewis Davis, 20, got out of the car and allegedly assaulted them.
Tungate and Lewis also allegedly took personal items from the men. The two men told police that they did not know their attackers.
Jeannie Seaborne was just 9 years old when she attended her first homemakers' meeting. Now, decades later, she is the 2009 Taylor County Homemaker of the Year.
At age 6, Seaborne was adopted, and it wasn't long after that when her mother, Loula Speed, brought her along to a homemakers' meeting.
Seaborne said she enjoyed interacting with the women in the club, many of whom would let her help with the crafts they made.
Lake Cumberland Community Action will begin accepting applications for its Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program on Monday.
Last year, the program helped 782 Taylor County residents with their home heating costs.
Eligible households must:
- Be responsible for their home energy costs either by paying the bills directly or as part of their rent.
- Have a combined income not in excess of 130 percent of the federal poverty level for the calendar month prior to the month of application.
An appeal has been filed in the case where a jury found that Taylor Regional Hospital failed to provide adequate care for a local man's wife but didn't award any damages.
Greensburg attorney Danny Butler filed a wrongful death claim in Taylor Circuit Court in April 2007 on behalf of William H. Wethington, executor of the estate of Betty H. Wethington.
It was several ago when Steven Benningfield decided to take over Bob and Nell Wise's pumpkin operation. He and his wife and children would grow them if his parents, R.L. and Imogene Benningfield, would sell them.
To sweeten the venture for his parents, Steven offered a deal.
"My parents had never had a vacation," he said. "I told them that if we made some money [selling pumpkins], we'd go on a vacation."
That fall, they took their first-ever vacation to Tennessee.
A Campbellsville man was injured Friday after his vehicle collided with another.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, at about 9 a.m., Barry Blakeman of Campbellsville was driving east on South Central Avenue in a 2000 Ford Ranger when his pickup hydroplaned in a curve and collided with a 1997 Ford F150 driven by Raymond Ford of Campbellsville.
Blakeman, who had to be extricated from his vehicle, was transported to Taylor Regional Hospital by Campbellsville/Taylor County Rescue. He was treated and released. Ford and his passenger were not injured.
Gov. Steve Beshear announced today the appointment of State Sen. Dan Kelly as a judge in the 11th Judicial Circuit. Kelly was among three names submitted by the seven-member nominating commission.
"Sen. Kelly has the appropriate temperament and experience for this position," Beshear said. "I feel confident he will provide fair, honest and judicious service to the people of the 11th Judicial Circuit."
State Sen. Dan Kelly has resigned his position as Senate majority floor leader in what could be the first step to becoming a Circuit Court judge.
Kelly has served as Senator for District 14, which consists of Taylor, Marion, Washington, Nelson and Mercer counties, since 1991.
On Friday, Kelly's was among the names of three attorneys selected by a committee from which Gov. Steve Beshear will choose to fill a vacant judge position in the 11th Judicial Circuit, which includes Taylor, Green, Washington and Marion counties.
Campbellsville Downtown Development Coordinator Donna Logsdon was honored recently for her efforts in helping revitalize Main Street.

Among them were service awards, honoring those with five or more years of service, for which Logsdon was named one of several winners.
Details about the suspensions of three Campbellsville Police Officers have been released after an open records request was filed by the News-Journal.
All suspensions were due to Police Department policy violations, according to Police Chief Dennis Benningfield. No criminal acts were committed.

The Arsenal right back Carl Jenkinson has pledged his international career to England, despite having appeared for Finland at under 19 and under 21 levels. He is waiting for FIFA clearance, but he could have a long wait if the case of Emmanuel Frimpong is anything to go by.

Arsenal Debate: Will Jenkinson keep Sagna out of the first team?
The Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson has improved tremendously this season since being given an extended run in the team due to the injury to Bacary Sagna, and although Sagna came through his first comeback game well last night, it is by no means certain that he will regain his place in the Arsenal first team with Jenkinson in such fine form.
Carl Jenkinson confirmed as an Arsenal player
The Charlton youngster Carl Jenkinson no longer plays for Charlton, he now plays for Arsenal! The youngster, who has opted to play for the Finland international team (by birth) rather than play for England, has been given permission by Arsene Wenger to meet up with his Finnish team-mates at a training camp next week.

On-Line Discount Brokers Had a Tough Quarter
Snel, Ross, American Banker
Despite favorable publicity, several of the leading discount firms in on-line brokerage are still having growing pains, financial results for the latest quarter suggest.
Two prominent companies -- E-Trade Group and DLJdirect Inc. -- reported losses, while National Discount Brokers Group earned $435,000 after losing $650,000 a year earlier. All failed to measure up to the discount brokerage leader, Charles Schwab & Co., whose net income rose 27%, to $125 million.
Meanwhile, two of the banking companies that do all or much of their business on the World Wide Web -- Net.Bank Inc. of Atlanta and Telebanc Financial Corp. of Arlington, Va. -- registered profits of $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
The mixed bag of results from on-line brokers is expected to continue this week, with a 5-cent-a-share loss from Ameritrade Holding Corp. and next month with a 6-cent-a-share profit from TD Waterhouse Group, according to the consensus estimate from First Call Corp., like American Banker a Thomson Financial company.
Industry experts said a general slowdown in trading because of the summer doldrums and a decline in Internet stocks that are the darlings of on-line investors -- contributed to the sluggish quarters. Some firms, however, were able to offset declining volumes by attracting new customers and more assets.
In early August, Credit Suisse First Boston Corp. analyst Bill Burnham -- now general partner at Softbank Capital Partners -- said it was "probable" that the third quarter would see, for the first time, a decline in trading volume on a sequential-quarter basis.
He based that forecast on a measurable drop in volume between April and July, the first months of the second and third quarters.
"The game has definitely changed for on-line financial services players, said Fiona S. Swerdlow, senior analyst at Jupiter Communications. "Firms that want to increase revenue from individual investors must look beyond transaction fees and become the primary keepers of client assets."
Recent research has led Jupiter to conclude that firms that focus on gathering assets rather than transaction fees "will dominate the space."
The on-line firms had prepared analysts and investors for the effects of lower trading volume.
"Overall, there was not a lot of surprise -- just some reassurance that it wasn't worse than had been predicted," said Richard H. Repetto, research analyst at Lehman Brothers Inc. in New York.
Signs of future growth were evident, though.
San Francisco-based Schwab, for example, saw trading volume decline, but it brought in $25 billion of net new assets during the quarter, an increase of 31% from the year-earlier period.
"Schwab is going after customers who have significant assets," said Greg Smith, a research analyst at Hambrecht & Quist in San Francisco.
These "high-quality accounts" are bringing in an average of $44,000 in net new assets each, an increase of 42% from a year earlier, said chairman and co-chief executive officer Charles R. Schwab.
The company earned $125 million in the quarter that ended Sept. 30, down from $151 million in the previous quarter but up from $98 million in the 1998 third quarter.
Trading volume at E-Trade remained virtually unchanged from the second to the third quarter of calendar 1999. …

Return of the Living Anchorwoman
There were two good reasons for cheer when KSTP-TV (Channel 5) announced that Cyndy Brucato had been selected as the lead anchor for the struggling ABC affiliate. Brucato is a 53-year-old woman, hardly the typical profile for a new hire in the wrinkle-intolerant milieu of local television news. So her ascension at least looked like a blow against TV's ageism and gender bias.
But the hiring of Brucato was notable for another reason. For the better part of the past two decades, Brucato has been a consummate political and corporate insider. Following an earlier stint at KSTP (from 1981 to 1986), she worked as press secretary for former Republican Governor Arne Carlson, communications director for Republican Norm Coleman during his successful run for the U.S. Senate, and--over the past eight years--as a hired flak.
In the latter capacity, Brucato spun professionally for the likes of the Minnesota House Republican Caucus, the tobacco company Brown & Williamson, the pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, and Koch Industries (a privately held company that made headlines a few years back when it received the largest environmental fine in state history for pollution at its Rosemount refinery). More unusual, Brucato has retained a post in state government, where she serves as the chair and citizen member of the Minnesota Board on Judicial Standards.
In the view of some mainstream journalists, such past and present affiliations raise a warning flag. "According to Society of Professional Journalists' code of ethics, you are to avoid any conflict of interest that is real or perceived," notes Al Tompkins, a veteran television journalist who now leads the broadcast division of the Florida-based Poynter Institute. "You can say, 'No, I can still be fair.' But the question is, What's the public perception? Because when it comes to fairness, perception is reality."
Of course, there are examples of people who have successfully moved between careers in politics and journalism. At the network level, reporters such as Tim Russert, Jeff Greenfield, and George Stephanopoulos all worked previously in politics, yet have gained general acceptance in their new roles as journalists.
But Tom Rosenstiel, director of the Project for Excellence in Journalism, points out that Brucato's work in PR raises additional questions that Russert and the others didn't have to contend with. "Does she have financial relationships with potential sources that would get in the way of her having a primary allegiance to the public?" Rosenstiel asks. "She has to demonstrate a renewed allegiance to factualness, to truthfulness, and that these private alliances she had with people for money are no longer important to her. That isn't to say she can't accomplish that. But there are some real hurdles."
While Brucato remains the owner of a public relations firm--Brucato and Halliday--she says she is no longer involved in the day-to-day operations of the company. If a story about a client suggests a conflict of interest, she adds, she will disclose the relationship to viewers.
Beyond that, Brucato regards her unusual career trajectory as an asset, not a liability. "I learned more working in the governor's office than in a three-year graduate program [in journalism]," she offers. "And I learned more working in a campaign than I would have had I just been a reporter covering a campaign."
Brucato says she has no intention of being a mere news reader and has assumed a "more strategic role in the newsroom." Unlike some other anchors in town, she pitches stories, participates in news huddles, and has opened her Rolodex to fellow reporters. Cumulatively, that serves to raise one question: Will the Brucato effect lead to the FOX-ification of KSTP?
A cynic couldn't be faulted for harboring the suspicion. After all, KSTP's ownership--the Hubbard family--is well known for its generous support of Republican causes, having collectively donated more than $1 million to mostly GOP candidates since 1996. KSTP-AM (1500), the Hubbards' St. Paul-based talk-radio station, features a programming slate dominated by hardcore conservatives. And on Channel 5, even the weather tilts right. The station's longtime meteorologist, Dave Dahl, is a leading global warming skeptic in the Twin Cities' meteorology circles.
Since Brucato's ascent this month into the top spot, some overtly "ideological" stories have crept into the newscast. On the 10:00 p.m. news of July 26 (wedged between reports about traffic accidents), KSTP aired one of its more peculiar offerings: a soft-focus feature about a suburban couple who were upset that Planned Parenthood is selling T-shirts emblazoned with the words, "I had an abortion."
The story, apparently plucked from the Drudge Report and then localized, didn't have a concrete news peg. The extent of the couple's protest was to circulate a chain letter denouncing Planned Parenthood, which is hardly a dramatic or especially newsworthy tactic. But the camera lingered long and lovingly on the couple's young children and then abruptly cut to the "I had an abortion" T-shirt. The effect was pure agit-prop.
For her part, Brucato says she regarded that story as simple enterprise reporting, and insists it wasn't driven by antiabortion bias. If the couple was more sympathetic than the Planned Parenthood "bureaucrats" who spoke in defense of the T-shirts, Brucato says, that's simply the nature of the medium that prefers the personal to the institutional. In Brucato's view, it is "very hard" to inject bias into a newscast. This, of course, begs the question: Has Brucato ever watched the Fox News Channel?
Still, Channel 5's current approach to the news is less noticeable for ideological taint than sheer banality. Under former news director Scott Libin, the station enjoyed a reputation as the local TV station most likely to appeal to serious-minded people. With an emphasis on long-form stories and public-spirited reporting, it won awards and respect--and, as has long been the case, lagged in the ratings.
When management dumped Libin in 2003, it adopted the so-called "urgent news" format. In KSTP's case, this has amounted to an emphasis on getting camera crews and reporters to crime scenes, explosions, and, with a truly staggering frequency, car crashes. The strategy did not lead to an increase in viewers, and the station's numbers hit historic lows during the latest sweeps. But KSTP's management blamed the dismal ratings on its recently departed anchor team, meaning that, for the near term, viewers can still expect to get their car crash news with a Republican flavor.

The adidas Top Ten 2000 is a sneaker that's been sort of obsessed with the bright end of the spectrum as of late. The last couple of versions we saw for the shoe included the likes of joy blue, vivid yellow, orange, and vivid pink. Upholding the standard set by those is another pair the same vein, one that arrived in stores without any notice beforehand. Get a full look at the adidas Top Ten 2000 in question right after the jump and watch for them now at CNCPTS.

Note: Sample below may appear distorted but all corresponding word document files contain proper formattingExcerpt from Document:
As a business manager, I believe that inspiring people, listening to people, showing them and making them feel that they count are some of the most important aspects of running a great business. I feel that I am a good communicator and that I am good at understanding the differences in how each distinct person communicates. I am also able to change the way I communicate with people in order to reach them on their respective levels.
Throughout my high school and college career I was involved in different extracurricular activities. I played basketball throughout high school and I feel that the sport instilled within me some very important values pertaining to teamwork, diversity, and competition. I feel that I have a very healthy idea of what it means to be competitive and I owe this to the game of basketball. Not only does basketball require physical strength and endurance, it also requires that strength of character and a knowledge of the importance of community. I was captain of the basketball team my senior year in high school and I believe that I was chosen because of my healthy sense of teamwork, community, diversity, and my ability to communicate and inspire my other teammates.
I have been involved in academic clubs in college as well. The club I was most involved with was the Entrepreneurship Society at my school. The purpose of the club is to nurture an entrepreneurial fortitude in students through the coordination of programs that highlight entrepreneurship. Our club coordinated many guest speakers throughout the school year, came up with new and innovative ways to raise money while also providing experience in beginning new ventures, and offered resources to students who were interested in beginning a new venture but didn't have the resources to do so. The Entrepreneurship Society taught me that innovation ideas and leadership can transform not just organizations but the world at large.
I feel that I am ready for business school because of my personal experiences related to having to "grow up...? before my time as well as because of my experiences in extracurricular activities like basketball and the Entrepreneurship Society. All of these experiences have made me the person that I am today and I feel both ready and excited about the challenge of business school. I have always felt that business is where I wanted to be and management feels like a natural direction to go in.[continue]

Facing technical difficulties, UVM extends early application deadlineOctober 22,2013Staff Report
BURLINGTON - The University of Vermont will extend its early application and spring semester application deadline from Nov. 1 to Nov. 11.
The change is due to widely reported technical challenges students and school counselors are experiencing with the new version of the online Common Application.
UVM said its goal is to ensure that students applying to the University of Vermont will not be penalized because of technical problems with the application. Extending the deadline will allow students additional time to work with the new application and avoid the high-volume use that is expected around Nov. 1.
The application fee waiver for students applying early action for fall 2014 admission is still valid
through Nov. 11. Prospective students are also reminded that supporting information for the application - such as transcripts, test scores or letters of recommendation - may be sent after the application deadline.MORE IN This Just InThe Shumlin administration and legislative leaders are questioning aspects of a renewable energy...

In europe there are already tax included in the price. If you substract taxes than the price is quite similar. Besides that you usually get longer warranty in europe.
The dollar price is usually the cheapest and I hate that myself but the difference is smaller than most people think. You cannot just use a currency converter and start crying. It's a bit more complex than that.
The pound price is ridiculous though.

Saint Louis County gasoline dispensing facilities (GDFs) are required to participate in the Stage I and Stage II Vapor Recovery programs, pursuant to 10 CSR 10-5.220, Control of Petroleum Liquid Storage, Loading and Transfer. This program was implemented to address the high concentrations of ground-level ozone in the area, and has proven to be very effective in reducing gasoline vapor emissions, which are ozone-forming volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The Vapor Recovery program includes regular inspections, performance testing and permitting of GDFs, and the use of Missouri Performance Evaluation Testing Procedures (MOPETP) to test systems and individual components for vapor collection efficiencies and durability.

Fla lt gov quits; tied to charity in probe
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. An investigation of a purported veterans' charity in Florida led to the resignation of the state's lieutenant governor, who once did public relations for the nonprofit accused of using Internet cafes as a front for an illegal gambling operation.
Florida Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll's resignation, announced Wednesday, came as the owner of an Oklahoma software company and his wife were arrested and accused of supplying illegal gambling software to Allied Veterans of the World, a charity based in St. Augustine, Fla.
Carroll's public relations firm once represented Allied Veterans. Carroll, a Navy veteran who served in the Gulf War, appeared in a TV ad in 2011 promoting the organization's charitable work on behalf of veterans and their families. She has not been charged with any wrongdoing.
Carroll's resignation letter to Gov. Rick Scott offered no details about her reason for leaving, but the Republican governor's chief of staff, Adam Hollingsworth, said the 53-year-old Republican resigned to ensure her ties to the company would not be a distraction for the administration.
Allied Veterans evolved from a charitable organization that ran bingo games and held bake sales for veterans beginning in 1979 to a group suspected of operating more than 40 illegal gambling locations around Florida, according to an Internal Revenue Service affidavit. The veterans' charity was a fraud, according to the IRS.
"In an effort to mislead the public into believing that it is not profiting from an illegal gambling enterprise, Allied Veterans and others have engaged in a conspiracy and scheme to defraud," the affidavit said.
Carroll's aides said they had no immediate comment Wednesday.
From 2007 to early 2012, investigators found evidence of over $6 million in what appear to be charitable donations by Allied Veterans. That amount, however, was only about 2 percent of the over $290 million made from gambling operations during that time period. Instead of going to veterans, the vast majority of the money went to for-profit companies and the individuals who operated Allied Veterans and its so-called "affiliates."
It wasn't immediately clear whether anyone who worked with Allied Veterans had been arrested or charged. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement planned a news conference Wednesday afternoon.
To play games at one of the Internet cafes, a customer gets a prepaid card and then goes to a computer to play "sweepstakes." The games, with spinning wheels similar to slot machines, have names such as "Captain Cash," `'Lucky Shamrocks" and "Money Bunny," according to the IRS.
Winners go back to a cashier with their cards and cash out.
The games have been the subject of much debate in Florida and some are legal as long as most of the profits are donated to charity.
Each of the locations had a big sign prominently displayed that read: "This is not a gaming establishment." Inside were rows of computers where patrons could play the various games.
At most of the sites, employees wore shirts emblazoned the an "Allied Veterans" logo. On the walls were photos of company executives making donations on its behalf and letters of recognition from some of the charities that received donations.
In Anadarko, Okla., the owner of International Internet Technologies, which was accused of supplying the cafes with software, was arrested along with his wife.
Chase Egan Burns, 37, and his wife, 38-year-old Kristin Burns, faced charges including racketeering and conspiracy in Florida. International Internet Technologies made $63 million from the Florida operation during 2007-2010, according to the IRS affidavit.
Burns' wife's role in the company was not immediately clear.
Chase Burns was released from the Caddo County jail on a $500,000 bond. He denied any wrongdoing.

2000 BMW 540i Reviews
2000 BMW 540i Reviews and Owner Comments
Login to Review This Car
2000 BMW 540i (3 Reviews)
I bought a 2000 a year ago with 145K. Despite 16 MPG (city) I would buy it again! Great Car! (Nice "Classic" look) - Fantastic ride. (Do wish the steering was a little more responsive like the 2003 M5, and that the interior was not so cheap or dated) I did have to make some repairs to it: Replaced Radiator and reserve tank (Apx $150) - For some reason they don't last that long in these cars - and $150 fixed the problem (Even if I have to replace it in a year or so - so what its an easy and cheap fix) Was having problems with the Alternator - BMW quoted me $800 for a new one and I found a rebuilt for $500. BUT after reading the message boards and finding that the Rebuilt ones often have faulty Voltage regulators I decided to replace ONLY the Voltage regulator ($50) and haven't had a problem since. NOTE - It requires the removal of the radiator, Fan, and serpentine belt (serp belt easy to remove with a ratchet placed on a nut and pushed - no need for major effort - Fan requires BIG crescent wrench - that you'll only use twice.) I also had to replace the window regulators (1 on the rear and 1 on the front) BMW quoted me $800 for the rear - I found it on like for $150(?) and got the front for about $50 (Don't get the super cheap ones where you get the set of fronts for $60 - they're junk).
The car is a great example of fine engineering - For 7 years its been trouble free - unfortuantely at the expiration of warranty period - repairs are terribly expensive - BMW brand inflation, many simple items you pay a high premium "BMW repair tax" to dealer or independent mechanic.
My son's 540 is a very heavy car so, use front brake pads like water. Recently the alternator need to be replace. Just $ 500 for a rebuild one!New alternator are about $ 800.00, and we found out it is a water cool alternator......!!!!!!! With this model you need to be very carefull with no overheating the engine. Cronic problems with the cooler system. Very nice cars when they are new, but after 5 or 6 years......
