Celebrating HHS Trailblazers
The HHS Innovates Awards Program identifies and celebrates innovative solutions developed by our employees.
HHS Innovates is aimed at building a culture of innovation at the Department of Health and Human Services through facilitating the exchange of innovative ideas and showcasing creative approaches developed by our employees to solve tough problems. This program recognizes and rewards employee-led innovation, and helps to spread promising solutions across the Department and beyond.
How does HHS Innovates recognize and reward employee-led innovation?
- Annually, HHS employees are encouraged to submit innovative solutions they have developed or nominate the work of their colleagues
- The top innovative solutions are showcased for employee voting and promoted in the media
- Meritorious innovators receive recognition
- Winning innovators are personally recognized by HHS leadership in an awards ceremony
What do employees get for participating in HHS Innovates?
- Broad exposure for their innovative solutions across HHS and in the media
- Engagement with a community of innovators across the Department
- Cash prizes for winning innovators (HHS Employees and Commissioned Corps Officers only)
- Inclusion of HHS Innovates certificate in winning innovators' employee performance file
Core Principles of HHS Innovates
As part of the mission of the HHS IDEA Lab to identify, enable and catalyze innovation and experimentation, HHS Innovates celebrates those HHS employees who think differently and take risks. The celebration of those employees who adopt new methodologies, collaborate, and are creative in problem solving is helping to spread culture change and build a network of innovators and experimenters internal to the Department.
Types of HHS Innovates Projects
To date, 42 innovations have won HHS Innovates awards, and hundreds more have received exposure across HHS. These innovations cover a wide spectrum of solutions, and often involve partnerships across the Department or with external organizations.
To be worthy of an HHS Innovates award, the innovation must have been implemented within the last 30 months and needs to be a solution that is scalable and relevant to stakeholders across HHS and beyond.
Eligible innovations must fit into one of following six categories:
Transforming Health
Innovations in this category transform and improve health. Eligible innovations could address topics such as affordability, access, quality, care delivery, system and organizational enhancements, provider training and coordination, or payment reform; prevention, wellness, and other strategies that focus on the health of communities; or scientific research and discoveries leading to new health care innovations and advances in public health and health care. Prior winning examples include: Medline Plus Connect or Joining Forces to Fight Childhood Obesity.
Optimizing Human Services
Innovations in this category transform and improve human services. Eligible innovations could include new types of service offerings, improved methods of service delivery or coordination, or educational offerings that can support the care of these populations. These innovations could address underserved or disadvantaged communities, vulnerable populations, or those in crisis due to natural or man-made conditions. A prior winning example includes: Supporting Tribal Grantees: ACF Makes it Simple
Creating Building Blocks for Success at Every Stage in Life
Innovations in this category help to ensure that the building blocks for success are incorporated at every stage of life. Eligible innovations could address service offerings, community engagement, or knowledge-sharing and support across one or more stages of the life cycle (e.g. infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood) or key transition points (e.g., from financial dependence to independence, parenthood, home to community living, caregiving). Prior winning examples include: Text4Baby or Suicide Prevention: What's Your Role?
Enhancing Operational Effectiveness
Innovations in this category strengthen the Department's effectiveness in delivering on its mission. Eligible innovations could address new uses of technology or workflows to enhance operations, risk management, administrative or review processes, sustainability, or customer support, etc. Prior winning examples include: Revolutionizing Procurement through the Web and Ready, Cert, Go!
Biggest Bang for the Buck
Innovations in this category provide significant savings or return-on-investment for HHS resources expended. In considering the return-on-investment, applicants can consider the value of non-HHS investments or in-kind contributions from partners that are helping to leverage HHS resources. Prior winning examples include: NIAID Freestuff: Stretching Tax Dollars or The Zombie Apocalypse Campaign.
Out-of-the-Box Solution
Innovations in this category represent a new methodology, approach or technology for addressing a difficult problem relevant to HHS. Eligible innovations could also focus on a novel application or new use of an existing methodology, technology or approach from a different field that can solve an HHS problem. Prior winning examples include: Counterfeit Detection Device or From Outer Space to the Eye Clinic.
You can view all of the past winners of HHS Innovates here.
Phases of HHS Innovates
HHS Innovates involves five major phases, which are designed to identify, share, and highlight innovation occurring at HHS. These include:
- Employee Submission Period
In the first phase of HHS Innovates, all HHS employees are encouraged to submit innovative solutions they have developed, or nominate the work of their colleagues. For more information about the eligibility criteria and innovation categories, check out the Overview tab.
- Agency Review
In the second phase of HHS Innovates, leadership from the HHS operating and staff divisions will be notified of their employees' submissions of this award program, and they will be granted right of first refusal for any submissions that do not align with the division's mission, goals, and strategic plans.
- Scoring and Review by the HHS Innovates Committee
In the third phase of HHS Innovates, the HHS Innovates Committee reviews and scores the submissions. The highest scoring innovation in each category will move onto the finals. Highly meritorious innovations that do not proceed to the finals may be eligible to receive recognition from the Deputy Secretary. For more information about the scoring criteria, check out the Evaluation and Selection Criteria tab.
- Showcasing of Innovations and Employee Voting
In the fourth phase of HHS Innovates, the finalists will be displayed for employee voting. During this period, HHS employees will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite innovation, which will be considered the "Employee's Pick." In addition, the Secretary will also have the opportunity to review the finalists, and select up to two "Secretary's Picks" from among them.
- Recognition Ceremony
All of the finalists will be considered HHS Innovates winners. A recognition ceremony will be held at HHS headquarters to recognize and celebrate the innovators who contributed to the winning innovations. Media outreach will be issued for the winning innovations. Prizes and plaques will be provided to all key contributors on the finalist teams, and supporting contributors will receive individualized certificates signed by the Secretary and Deputy Secretary.
New Features and Enhancements to HHS Innovates
In the spirit of continuous quality improvement, we have made a number of changes to the HHS Innovates Awards program to enhance the way we recognize and share promising innovations. Here's a brief overview of the changes and what we hope to accomplish with them:
Focus on High Impact Areas of Relevance Across HHS
This round, HHS employees can submit their innovations in one of six categories (Transforming Health, Optimizing Human Services, Creating Building Blocks for Success at Every Stage in Life, Enhancing Operational Effectiveness, Biggest Band for our Buck, and Out-of-the-Box Solution). These six categories, based on priorities set forth by Secretary Burwell, will not only help us to focus on high-impact areas where innovation matters most, but will also inspire submissions from operating and staff divisions that may not have participated as frequently in the awards program before.
Streamlined the Nomination Process:
The submission form has been updated with improved questions and the opportunity to include collateral material, such as video, images, or weblinks, with your submission. The submission questions can be found on the Eligibility and How to Apply tab.
You can also nominate a colleague who you think should submit their innovation for an award. Check out the Nominate a Colleague tab to access the form.
Improved the Award Selection Process:
The process of selecting winners has changed to ensure that the most promising innovative solutions are selected for an HHS Innovates Award. After the submission period closes, the HHS Innovates Committee will review and score the submissions. The highest-scored innovation in each of the six eligibility categories will be finalists and will receive HHS Innovates Awards.
This round, after finalists are selected, we are opening up employee voting and asking the HHS community to select its favorite (aka "the Employee's Pick"). As in previous rounds, the Secretary will also review the winning innovations and select her favorite(s) (aka "the Secretary's Pick"). At the awards ceremony, and in the press release, we will celebrate all of the winning innovations.
Enhanced Recognition for HHS Trailblazers:
In years past, on average three teams were recognized for their innovation. This round, more innovations will be identified as awards winners, as we recognize the six category winners for their innovative work.
Among the category winners, all key contributors will now be awarded a cash prize (HHS Employees and Commissioned Corps only), regardless of whether they were chosen as the Employee's Pick and Secretary's Pick. Category winners will also receive a certificate signed by the Secretary and Deputy Secretary that will be placed in their employee performance file.
Finally, we will recognize meritorious innovations that were not selected as finalists in an alternative form. These employees, identified by the HHS Innovates Committee, will receive written recognition from the Deputy Secretary for their efforts.
A Brief History of HHS Innovates
Launched in 2010 by the HHS Innovation Council, HHS Innovates has undergone seven rounds of competition to date. During this time, HHS employees have nominated over 500 exciting new staff-driven innovations, and over 60,000 votes have been cast by our employees during the voting phase. As a result of this program, over 200 employee innovators who made innovations happen at HHS have been recognized by the Secretary.
By calling attention to promising solutions, and sharing them widely across HHS and with our stakeholders, we have help to spread and scale promising solutions that are helping HHS to better deliver on its mission of providing health and human services to the American people. For example, one of the innovations, the NIOSH cap lamp, was picked up for licensing by a foreign company who learned of the innovation through an HHS Innovates press release. Other innovations, such as the 100K Genome Project and Body Weight Simulator have gained numerous new partners and followers as a result of the media attention. These competitions and employee prizes have demonstrated how HHS employees have overcome resource constraints, complicated schedules, and complex organizational dynamics to provide creative, replicable and sustainable innovations that demonstrate outstanding leadership and promising results.
This competition has been widely highlighted in innovation circles. The competition, and the winning innovations highlighted through this contest have been highlighted in national newspapers, on the radio, and by the White House. Many federal agencies have requested briefings on this competition, and have sought to model their innovation efforts after this program. If you are interested in a briefing, please contact email@example.com

Eligibility Requirements
How is innovation defined for the purpose of this program?
For this awards program, an innovation is defined as the introduction of something entirely new (e.g., a product, process, system, service, or business model) or an unusual application of an existing product, process, system or service in a manner that improves an operating division's or HHS's ability to accomplish its mission. The innovation can be executed within the United States, or abroad, provided it is relevant to the mission of HHS or an operating division.
What categories of innovation are eligible for an HHS Innovates award?
Eligible innovation solutions must fit into one of following six categories, and must be scalable and relevant to stakeholders across HHS and beyond:
- Transforming Health
- Optimizing Human Services
- Creating Building Blocks for Success at Every Stage in Life
- Enhancing Operational Effectiveness
- Biggest Bang for the Buck
- Out-of-the-Box Solution
For full descriptions of these categories, please visit the Overview tab.
Can an innovation be submitted to more than one category?
An innovative solution may only be submitted once per round of HHS Innovates (e.g.,
applicants cannot submit the same solution to multiple categories within a given round of HHS Innovates). While an innovative solution may fit into more than one category, applicants are asked to select the category that best represents the solution's impact.
Who is eligible to apply to HHS Innovates?
All HHS employees and members of the Commissioned Corps are invited to submit submissions for work they have done, or nominate innovations developed by their colleagues.
To be eligible for an HHS Innovates award, the individual submitting must be an HHS employee or member of the Commissioned Corps. The team, however, can include non-HHS employees, such as contractors, grantees, and individuals working for partnering organizations from the private and non-profit sectors. Teams may also include individuals from other HHS operating or staff divisions, or other government agencies.
While it is possible for individuals to apply as a single innovator applicant, most of the applicants involve teams. Teams may include up to seven "key" contributors in their submission. In addition, they may list up to ten "supporting" contributors. Team innovator applicants must decide amongst themselves which individuals are key contributors versus supporting contributors to the innovation. The below definitions may assist teams in making this distinction:
- Key Contributor: Individual(s) who contribute to the conception, development or execution of the innovation in a substantive, measurable way. A key contributor is someone without whom the innovation would not have been attempted, applied, or improved. The contributor's rank or pay grade should not affect one's eligibility to be deemed a "key" contributor. HHS grantees, contractors or partners may be considered key contributors to the innovation if they meet this definition. The "key contributors" are eligible for a cash prize (HHS employees and Commissioned Corps only).
- Supporting Contributor: Individual(s) who make a meaningful contribution to the innovation but do not meet the definition above. The "supporting contributors" are not eligible for cash prizes, but will receive other types of recognition.
HHS employees and members of the Commissioned Corps who have applied for, or won, innovation awards at the division level are eligible to apply for HHS Innovates, provided their innovation satisfies these eligibility criteria.
What is the time requirement for eligible innovations?
Eligible innovations must have been implemented within 30 months of the submission date. While an aspect of the innovation (e.g., conceptual design, early research, prototype) may have commenced earlier than 30 month period, the innovation nominated for this round of HHS Innovates must have developed and/or piloted within 30 months of the date of submission.
Applicants may resubmit an entry that was submitted in a previous cycle but not chosen as "Secretary's Picks" or the "People's Choice". Resubmissions must fall within the eligible time period and the resubmitted application must contain updated information about the innovation (such as new direction or project, new results or demonstration of additional impact/scalability, or new partners).

Evaluation Process and Selection of Winners
The evaluation and selection process involves three basic steps:
- Agency review of Employee Submissions
- HHS Innovates Committee Review and Scoring of Submissions
- Selection of the "Employee Pick" and "Secretary's Picks"
Step 1: Agency Review of Employee Submissions
At the close of the submission period, leadership from the HHS operating and staff divisions will be notified of their employees' submissions, and they will be granted right of first refusal for any submissions that do not align with the division's mission, goals, and strategic plans. Agency leadership will not be able to alter the submission (except by written permission), but they are able to remove a submission.
Step 2: HHS Innovates Committee Scoring and Selection of Finalists
Proposals that are cleared by agency leadership will be evaluated by the HHS Innovates Committee based on the following criteria:
- Significance to the HHS/OPDIV Mission or to Operational Efficiency [25 points]
- Novelty of the Innovation [25 points]
- Impact/Return-on-Investment [25 points]
- Potential for and Scalability and Transferability across HHS [25 points]
The top scoring innovation in each category (Transforming Health, Optimizing Human Services, Creating Building Blocks for Success at Every Stage in Life, Enhancing Operational Effectiveness, Biggest Bang for Our Buck, and Out-of-the Box Solution) will move onto the finals. In cases where there is a tie within a category, the Awards Committee may select multiple innovations to move onto the finals. Those selected as finalists will be asked to participate in a brief interview with members of the HHS Innovates Committee.
Highly meritorious innovations that do not proceed to the finals will be eligible to receive written recognition from the Deputy Secretary.
Step 3: Selection of "Employee's Pick" and "Secretary's Picks"
The finalists, as chosen by the HHS Innovates Committee, will have the opportunity to win two additional awards: the "Employee's Pick" and the "Secretary's Pick."
The highest scoring innovation in each category (i.e, "the finalists") will be displayed for employee voting. The voting will provide HHS employees with the opportunity to select their favorite innovation from the finalists. The innovation receiving the highest number of employee votes will be considered the "Employee's Pick."
In addition, the Secretary will provide the opportunity to select up to two of her favorite innovations. These innovations will be considered the "Secretary's Picks."
All of the finalists will be considered HHS Innovates winners. The key contributors to these innovations will be invited to attend the recognition ceremony and will receive prizes as well as plaques and certificates.

Rotary PTC candidates forum changed again
The Peachtree City Rotary Club has rescheduled its "Meet the Candidates" forum for Monday, Oct. 24 from 7-9 p.m.
The event is being moved to The Gathering Place senior citizen center as well, organizers said. Previous forums have been hosted at the Wyndham Peachtree Conference Center.
The candidate forum, a place for the community to ask questions of those running for city council, has been a long-standing tradition of the Rotary Club.
The forum will feature Post 1 candidates Stephen Allen and incumbent Eric Imker. George Dienhart, who is running unopposed for the Post 2 seat, has opted not to participate "in order to give more time for the others," according to Rotary officials.
There will be prepared questions, and the audience will also be invited to submit questions. A moderator and panel will be used to help structure the event.
The club has had difficulty setting a date for the forum because of a number of scheduling issues with the candidates.

Given global heterogeneity in climate-induced agricultural variability, Tanzania has the potential to substantially increase its maize exports to other countries. If global maize production is lower than usual owing to supply shocks in major exporting regions, Tanzania may be able to export more maize at higher prices, even if it also experiences below-trend productivity. Diverse destinations for exports can allow for enhanced trading opportunities when negative supply shocks affect the partners' usual import sources. Future climate predictions suggest that some of Tanzania's trading partners will experience severe dry conditions that may reduce agricultural production in years when Tanzania is only mildly affected. Tanzania could thus export grain to countries as climate change increases the likelihood of severe precipitation deficits in other countries while simultaneously decreasing the likelihood of severe precipitation deficits in Tanzania. Trade restrictions, like export bans, prevent Tanzania from taking advantage of these opportunities, foregoing significant economic benefits.

So far great!
This review is from: OLYMPUS TG-820 iHS Red 12 MP 5X Optical Zoom Waterproof Shockproof 28mm Wide Angle Digital Camera HDTV Output
Pros: Now waterproof to 33 feet. Point-and-shoot compact, fast to power up and quick response time to capture a picture from power up.
Cons: So far just that the interface is mostly controlled by a joystick. Seems to be a weak point.
Other Thoughts: Overall a great camera. It's replacing a prior tough camera that wasn't tough enough. When they say the camera is water proof to a specific depth, they have done their testing and it will not safely go deeper

text: Bandsman jailed over throwing firework 31 Jan 2014 A loyalist bandsman has been jailed for 12 months for throwing a firework at police during "sporadic, but sustained" rioting in north Belfast. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast Jonathan Airdrie, 23, pleaded guilty at Belfast Crown Court to riotous behaviour following a republican band parade through Carlisle Circus on 2 September, 2012.A prosecution lawyer said Airdrie, of Rosebank Street, Belfast, was among a crowd of 300 loyalists who had gathered after the Parades Commission allowed the Henry Joy McCracken parade to walk along Clifton Street.Police were deployed to keep loyalists and republicans apart as they gathered at Denmark Street and the rear of the Hopelink Centre on Clifton Street, the court heard.Judge Donna McColgan QC watched police CCTV footage of Airdrie dressed in a black hooded top throw a single firework at police lines during the "serious rioting".The court heard during 11 hours of trouble that day, four police officers were hospitalised and a further 50 were injured and a number of PSNI vehicles were also damaged.A total of 30 petrol bombs and 40 fireworks were hurled at police dressed in full riot gear, the judge heard."AEPs (Attenuating Energy Projectiles) were deployed during the course of the rioting which lasted 11 hours."The lawyer added that father-of-two Airdrie was captured at the scene for almost four hours.The court was told that Airdrie was arrested the following month by a PSNI detective as he walked along Cambrai Street in the Shankill district.During questioning, Airdrie identified himself from the footage but made no admissions.A defence barrister claimed there were "highly exceptional circusmtances" in the case as Airdrie was suffering from depression, ADHD and suffered behavourial problems from a young age.However, Judge McColgan rejected the defence argument saying not only had Airdrie been captured throwing the firework he was also identified from the CCTV footage being "menacing towards police". The judge sentenced Airdrie to two years, with 12 months in custody and the remainder to be spent on licence following his release.Meanwhile, another rioter involved in the same incident was given a one year prison sentence suspended for two years.Judge Corinne Philpott QC said the case of Jason McCormick, 39 and of Crumlin Road, Belfast had "wholly exceptional circumstances" as his partner was still ill and needed "assistance with their two children".The judge was told that McCormick was seen on police footage at the scene for ten minutes throwing one or two missiles.However, a prosecuting barrister said that during interviews the defendant told police he had been present for three hours and had probably thrown more that a couple of missiles.Sentencing McCormick, the deputy Belfast Recorder told him: "Let this be the end of this matter and don't be going near any protests. You have more important things to keep you occupied." © UTV Share Share Share

Mexican Bean Spread/Dip
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 0 mins
This is a Vegan recipe that came from www.rochestergoodfood.com. I use left-over Cranberry Beans instead of the canned ones. (Cranberry Beans are similar to Pinto Beans.) This is good served with chips, raw vegetables, or spread on tortillas.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups pinto beans or 1 1⁄2 cups black beans, drained
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1⁄4 cup onion, chopped
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tomatoes, chopped
- 1 large garlic clove, chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
- Blend all ingredients in a food processor or blender until almost smooth. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Most Helpful
this had a real odd taste.. i think from the celery and it was also a little watery so i added about 1/4 cup salsa and some sour cream and put it in the oven until it was bubbly and thicker and hot (about 30 in or so) .. and sprinkled cheese on top and melted that.. then it was good. i also added a jalepeno for heat and after all the adjustments it was A LOT better maybe almost a 5 star.. but i would omit the celery the next time.. thanks though it turned out good and was eaten with pleasure!

I love the cross over of cuisines, we walked past an Itialian restaurant and on the menu was Chicken Shish Kebab Pizza. I had to try it, it was lovelly!!
Absolutely, they are a very proud nation and also, in my experience, a very friendly nation.Originally Posted by Skywatcher, post: 216006
The history is immense, I have been amazed at some of the places I have seen there, one place that sticks in my mind is Epheseus an entire city excavated from the ground. Walking around the streets and going in and out of the buildings there is something I will never forget. Definately somewhere you just have to visit if you are anywhere near the area.
Oh that all sounds very delicious! I like kebabs and dishes of that sort. Do you know what type of spices they use? I'm guessing that given the geographic location it's similar to other cuisine flavors in the region?Originally Posted by simonwebb74, post: 216008
Do they use yogurt based sauces at all?
Do you have any photos of the food?
Yes, our Skywatcher is!
Yes, Disney brings us together that's for certain, but we do like to share in other aspects of our members lives, as much as they feel comfortable sharing.
So, we'll encourage folks to tell us about their non-Disney holidays, celebrate the birth of their chidren, their weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, other milestones or imporant events in their lives, and mourn their losses.
It's about the full spectrum of friendship, isn't it?
They use a lot of cumin, paprika, oregano etc.Originally Posted by Tink, post: 216140
Yogurt based dips tend to come with pretty much all meat dishes and also with the potato skins (Which are literally fried strips of potato skin)
I'm not sure if we have any photos, I will have a look later.
I was last in Turkey in the late '70s. I remember visiting Kusadasi and Ephesus. We were on a cruise and when we were walking through the port to catch our bus I remember the kids tugging on our sleeves begging us to buy this or that for just a "buck".
I also had a good friend, a bartender at the Officer's Club in Stuttgart, who was Turkish and he used to take groups of us to a Turkish restaurant in Stuttgart where all we ever had to pay for was the alcohol. Loved the food.
I would love to be able to go back to Turkey some day and see other parts of it.

Thank you Simon. It sounds very delicious. Fried potato skins...hmmm... I'd try them.
There is a lot of crossover with turkish and greek foods. Of course that is probably due to all the fighting between the countries. I'm sure I'd love the food.
We are Greek on dad's side of the family. My dad was trying to get family records a couple of years back and he was told he would need to contact the Turkish embassy....dad was not happy at all.

Oklahoma State football: Villanueva family thrilled to meet Clint Chelf at OSU's Fan Appreciation Day
STILLWATER — Ernesto Villanueva had never been to Oklahoma State's Fan Appreciation Day, but he knew this year he had to travel from Clinton and bring his two sons when the opportunity arose.
Villanueva was beaming Saturday as Dominik, 9, and Rodman, 6, got to meet Cowboys players, but the proudest moment came when Dominik met quarterback Clint Chelf.
"I'm over here trembling for him," Ernesto said immediately after Dominik met Chelf.
Fans poured in Gallagher-Iba Arena in droves, even coming from Arizona to meet their favorite players and coaches.
But none appeared more excited — or stunned — to meet the quarterback viewed as the likely starter this season.
"Unexplainable," Dominik said searching for words after he met Chelf.
Ernesto even struggled to find the right words, saying "Right now words can't say what they're going (through)."
Ernesto has been a lifelong OSU fan, rooting from afar in Clinton. He said he has an OSU sticker on his car and an OSU flag in his yard. He also plans to get a Pistol Pete tattoo on his shoulder next year.
Now, he's gearing up for a season in which the Cowboys are facing uncharted expectations as the Big 12 favorite.
"I'm very excited," Villanueva said. "I saw that they're ranked No. 1 in the Big 12 and I was like, 'All right.' I've got family and friends that disrespect on OSU, but I stand behind them."
And the Villanuevas stand behind Chelf as the quarterback.
Dominik's eyes lit up when Chelf signed his No. 81 OSU jersey, just like many of the other players and coaches did. But Chelf was special.
He started last season as the third-string quarterback, essentially an afterthought. But his rise to No. 1 on the depth chart will now become a positive example for Dominik.
"It's a little kid's dream to be a quarterback of the team," Ernesto said. "He hasn't read much about (Chelf's rise), but I'm going to have him read it and get some inspiration from it."

Hasbro Family Game Night Getting Three New Additions This Summer
Written Wednesday, April 07, 2010 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Voted the "Best Family Game" in the Xbox Live Arcade Awards (Trials HD won "Best Overall Game", if you're interested), Hasbro Family Game Night is going to get even better this summer when EA release three new board game favourites to the XBLA collection.
Connect 4x4, Jenga and Pictureka will all be added to the popular line-up, with each game enjoying an original and remixed mode alongside leaderboards and online and local multiplayer.
Connect 4x4 doubles the grid spaces and participants of the traditional game, adding a remixed 'Super Squares' mode with power-ups dotted within the board, while Jenga is still everyone's favourite game of precarious block removal, which is intact for Classic Play, but there's also 'Chance Play' in the Family Game Night version that adds challenges like removing red blocks and defusing bombs to the mix.
Finally, Pictureka is a game of visual hide and seek where your perception is put to the test. Players race each other to see who has the best eyes and keenest observation skills. Apparently, thinking outside of the box helps too.
Mr. Potato Head will of course play a starring role once more.

Some voters fear their voices may not be heard because of a precinct glitch.
Voters at precinct 2301, located at Calvary United Methodist Church on West Pensacola say the polling site does not have a list of its registered voters.
They say when people arrive to vote --- the one woman working the site has to take their licenses and call to verify their information.
Concerned citizens say they've all been able to vote, but they're upset there isn't any sort of paper trail and they want to be assured their votes will count.

Arends found Gailey Wanatee, 43, of the Mesquakie Indian settlement, guilty of unlawful possession of deer meat in his deep freeze with- out a valid license. Arends fined Wanatee and costs. The may be posted as appeal bond if Wanatee wishes to appeal to a higher court. He has ten days to file an appeal. The charge was filed against Wanatee by State Conservation Officer Robert Mullen, Toledo. It brought up the question of whether the In- dians on the settlement near Tama have the right to hunt and fish on their lands when- ever they want to. The Indi- ans say they have that right. AH Crimes Arends, in his findings of fact and law, stated, "This court holds Sac and Fox (tri- bal members) in Iowa are subject to all crimes and mis- demeanors set forth in the laws of Iowa. There is no au- thority for them to pick and choose the laws they will obey. It seems they do not question the state's jurisdic- tion in serious offenses against state law, but do ques- tion authority in certain of- fenses." The charge filed against Wanatee was a mis- demeanor, not a felony. Arends, finding .the Sac and Fox in Iowa hold the settle- ment lands by purchase, said they have equal but no greater rights under the law than other land owners as regards hunting laws. Although no charge was made of a hunting violation, the question of illegal posses- sion is inter-related, Arends said. Your Grumbocher In a hearing in March, Mul- len testified he and other con- servation officers obtained a search warrant after they saw a deer hide outside Wanatee's residence after the hunting season had closed. He had received reports previously of deer poaching on the settle- ment. Deer Hide freezer disclosed two pack- ages of deer meat in clear kages of deer meat in clear plastic bags. Wanatee admit- ted to Mullen that it was deer meat. The deer hide outside contained shotgun pellets. Wanatee testified at the hearing that the meat in the freezer was from a deer killed by his 16-year-old son Dec. 1, the first day of the deer-hunt- ing season. The son had no hunting license. Arends, in his findings, found the Iowa code provides that owners or tenants of land and their children may hunt without a license on such land except as to deer. Only one of the said members may hunt deer and then may kill only one animal, and must apply in writing for a license, issued free, by the state conservation commission. The regulation further pro- vides that any person having unlawful possession of game may hold it for ten days after the close of the season and a permit to hold the game longer may be obtained from the commission. Neither Wanatee nor his son had licenses or permits. Wanatee's attorney at the hearing asked for a directed verdict, claiming that (1) The conservation officer had no authority to go onto the settle- ment and make an arrest; (2) Game laws do not apply to In- dians on the settlement land; (3) Lack of jurisdiction of the state of Iowa over crimes committed on ,the settlement. Magistrate Arends overruled the motion. Always Hunted Kenneth Youngbear, 65, a member of the Tribal Council 16 years, testified that the In- dians own their land, held in trust for them by the U. S. department of the interior, and they have always hunted and fished without licenses within their boundaries when- ever they wished. Arends, for almost three weeks after the hearing in his court, has studied and re- searched the case. He said he found the act of June 30, 1948, vested complete jurisdiction in the state of Iowa to enforce the full range of its criminal laws on the Sac and Fox res- ervation, or settlement, as it is more accurately called. The fact that the federal govern- ment may have concurrent ju- risdictions of certain crimes is immaterial, Arends said. In his findings, Arends said, "History records the slate of Iowa and Tama county have exercised jurisdiction for at least 100 years. The first re- ported serious crime involved the State of Iowa vs. Black Wolf. On June 13, 1874, Black Wolf was arrested on the set- tlement by Deputy Sheriff Bartlett for allegedly firing a pistol three times into the back of the head of a visting Pawnee, which resulted in his death. "At that time, Man-an-wan- e-ka, son of the distinguished Chief Poweshiek, was chief of the Sac and Fox. Since Ihen, apparently, the state has taken jurisdiction at least of serious crimes." A section of the Iowa code provides for an additional deputy sheriff, whose prin- cipal duty is law enforcement on the Sac and Fox settle- ment. Part of his salary is paid by the state and part by Tama county. The present deputy is Clyde Wanatee, a member of the tribe. The code does not limit or define the law he is to enforce, Arends found. Tama County Attorney Jared 0. Bauch represented the stale in (he hearing last month. Arends said there are many misconceptions concerning the Sac and Fox Indians. In the hearing, the defense counsel referred to them as Aborigi- nes. Actually they are im- migrants, Arends said in the summary of his'decision. "The Sac Indians came from -New York state, where they had been at war with the Iroquois and had become so weak that they joined the Fox tribe in the St. Lawrence river valley. "The Fox had been deci- mated in the French and Indi- an was. The two tribes unit- ed and moved lo Iowa some- time after .1760, as Father Hennepin speaks of fhe Fox Indians being in Green Bay at that date, according to a his- tory of Tama county by Chap- man and the opinion of the field solicitor of .the depart- ment of Indian Affairs Jan. 4, 1974."

Will- on is to show at that time whj lis probation should not be re- roked. The sixth judicial community ourt services has recommend- d the revocation. On. Sept. 7, 973, Willson pled guilty in dis- rict court to assault and bat- cry and was sentenced to 30 ays in the county jail, but the entence was suspended during ood behavior.

Iowa Speeding Arrests Up; H olden Wants Higher Limit DBS MOINES The Iowa highway patrol says the number of speeding citations during March increased by 73 percent over the same month a year ago. At the same time House Republican Leader Edgar Holden Davenport, Thursday appealed to Iowa's congressional delega- tipn. to consider increasing speed limits across the state in view of the diminishing effects of the energy crisis. Some citations were issued during the first month of the 55 miles-per-hour speed limit, compared with under the old speeds in 1973, highway patrol officials said. The federal government had given states until March 1 to change to the slower speed limit or face loss of highway funds. Patrol figures show a significant increase in the number of speed citations given to truckers. Nearly 900 trucks were stopped last month, compared with 251 in March 1973 an increase of 246 percent. Holden said he will appeal personally to members of the congressional delegation when they appear before the Iowa legislature next week. In a letter to Iowa's representatives and senators, Holden said the "very restrictive 55-mile-an-hour limit is causing frus- tration and resentment by the motorists." He said lowans are being asked to make greater reduction than eastern states, where they needed to reduce speeds five or ten miles an hour. In contrast, he said, lowans have been forced to reduce their driving speed 30 percent or by 20 miles an hour on the in- terstates. Holden suggested a return to the prior speed limits in a two- step process. The first step would be to allow speed limits to be increased to ten miles an hour below the previous limit. The second step would be a full return to the former speed limits at a later date. Campaign Masters Pledges War on Red Tape HAMPTON Ron Masters, a Democratic candidate for U.
