Love this calendar poster from East London studio Mash Creative. Inspired by our obsession with time, the headline package is influenced by the analogue flip clocks and, referencing 'sidereal' time (time-keeping system used by astonomers), the ink glows in the dark so that sections of the type appear like a constellation of stars. You can buy a copy of the limited edition poster here.

Citizens bank, Minn. and Crystal Valley Co-op generously donated $2,000 each to the city of LaSalle for new playground equipment in downtown park.
The city of LaSalle has a population of 90, with 25 of that 90 being children.
The city is excited to be on their way to updating the park equipment for the enjoyment of its children and these contributions make a difference toward ensuring we reach the city goals.
To replace playground equipment is very expensive so any contributions are welcome.

When I was about ten years old I saw smoke in the air and a fire down the block. I rode my bike to see a small garage which had caught on fire and a few fire fighters quelling the flames. It was nothing significant for me, just a fire in the garage, but that memory has stuck with me all of my life.
This Monday's experience was a little different. I had packed up my things and left work for the day. My only plans were to pick up the house a bit, watch some TV and have a little meal to hold me over until the AgriBusiness Banquet at the American Legion. It wasn't until I looked out my window and saw a cloud of black smoke that I knew anything was happening. Even then, I had no idea of the scale of the fire.
I quickly ran downstairs, hopped in my car and followed the smoke and sirens. Parking close enough to know I was on the right block, but far enough away that I wouldn't be blocking any emergency vehicles, I pulled my camera out of my bag and began recording what was happening around me.
At this time there were people gathering around the house and the St. James Fire Department was working independently to knock down the flames. All I could think about was how quickly the fire had spread and grown. It was now pouring out the front entryway windows and climbing up the sides of the home. Dark smoked filled the air and made getting a photo difficult.
I walked around the building and asked some people if they knew whether or not everyone got out of the building ok. Some didn't know, others said they had. I prayed they made it safely.
My girlfriend is always bugging me about making sure the smoke alarms are working properly, but I honestly hadn't given it much thought until Monday. Watching how quickly a fire can move and consume a home was an eye-opening experience. It was only a matter of minutes before the fire had spread and escape would have been nearly impossible. Early detection is obviously key in making it safely out of a house fire.
I also saw firsthand how important the surrounding fire departments are to the St. James community. Their help at the home turned the raging fire into a big cloud of light-grey smoke. A large number of volunteers – so large I lost count – came to help their neighbors, which is a special thing to witness in a town of 4,600.
I hope the Carreon family finds blessing and comfort in the supporting embrace of friends and family in this difficult time. But, I also have confidence in the community of St. James, and our ability to rally around a family. If the time comes where the Carreon family needs help, in any way, it's clear that this community will be right behind them with a helping hand.

Unix security and administration that's simplified and meets compliance requirements
Solve the security and administration issues inherent in Unix-based systems, while achieving compliance, using Privileged Access Suite for Unix. The suite consolidates and unifies Unix, Linux, and Mac OS X identities. It assigns individual accountability and allows centralized reporting, giving you and your users access to the systems. Privileged Access Suite for Unix also provides least privilege capabilities, ensuring that your administrators can only access what they need in order to perform their jobs.
The all-in-one suite for Unix security combines Active Directory bridge and root-delegation solutions under a unified console. This gives your organization centralized visibility and more efficient administration of access rights and identities across your entire Unix environment.
- Consolidated identities – Consolidate Unix accounts with role-based access managed centrally through Active Directory and one AD identity to simplify identity management.
- Least-privilege access – Protect your organization by granting administrators only sufficient rights necessary to perform their responsibilities.
- Centralized management and administration – Enforce unified access policies and centrally configure them across your entire Unix environment.
- Sudo reporting – Solve the challenge of reporting on sudo access rights. With no change to how end users operate, there is no new training required, simplifying access reporting for auditing and meeting compliance requirements.
- 360-degree visibility – Use a single console to deliver integrated, comprehensive control and visibility into Unix/Linux activities. Gain an understanding of an access policy's contents, when it was applied and who created it. Get centralized reporting on individual access rights across sudo, as well as an enterprise delegation solution tied to user account data in Active Directory.
- Trust but verify – Gain visibility and accountability into rights and activities required to satisfy security and compliance demands. Get audit capabilities, such as rights reporting and history, policy reporting, and keystroke logging, as well as change tracking and rollback.
- Single sign-on – Achieve "true" single sign-on for the total Unix, Mac OS X and Linux environment, in addition to key standards-based applications, including Siebel, SAP, and others.

How to Buy Satellite Radio Equipment
What Is Satellite Radio?
Satellite radio uses a home base on the ground that is linked to satellites in orbit above Earth. These satellites transmit the radio signal to a portable satellite radio antenna. The tiny antenna picks up the signal and the receiver decodes it and outputs the digital sound, along with information about the program you are listening to, such as the song title, artist, and music genre.
So what advantages does this present over AM/FM radio? Here are a few:
How Do You Get It?
First, you'll need to have the hardware to receive the satellite signal. Then you have to subscribe to one of the service providers. Currently, there are two companies that sell satellite radio subscriptions: XM Radio and Sirius. Both companies provide similar services. To check prices and channel listings go to www.xm-radio-satellite.com/ and www.sirius.com for more information. Different hardware manufacturers are partnered with XM Radio, than are with Sirius. So if you prefer a particular brand of sound equipment consider who these name brand manufacturers use before you make any purchases:
What You'll Need
Besides subscribing to a satellite radio service, you'll need to buy the hardware that can play it. Here are several options for playing satellite radio:
1. A satellite radio-ready in-dash CD player: In-dash systems that can play standard AM/FM stations, CDs, and also have a built-in satellite radio receiver. All you have to do is subscribe to the service, hook up an antenna, and start listening.
2. An FM modulator: This piece of hardware connects between a satellite radio receiver and your stereo's antenna input. All you have to do is tune the radio to an FM radio station, turn on the satellite radio, and get connected to it instantly.
3. A cassette adapter: Instead of buying an FM modulator, you can also get a cassette adapter that connects a satellite radio receiver through your cassette tape deck.
4. A portable system with docking cradle: With a docking cradle, you can hold the receiver, adapters, cables, and antenna in one place, so you can listen to satellite radio in the car, but can also take it out and listen to it at home.
5. A home adapter kit: With an indoor/outdoor antenna, you can get satellite radio at home and play it on your home audio system.
How To Install It
Depending on what pieces of hardware you choose for your car, the amount of installation you'll need to do will vary. While installation is similar to what you have to do to install other audio equipment in your car, it is suggested that you consult a professional with experience installing these types of systems.

The St. James School District held the local finals of the National Spelling Bee on Tuesday morning at the high school's Little Theater.
Seventh grader Callie Coleman won the contest for the third time. Callie correctly spelled the word 'hurriedly' to win first place. Callie put herself in a hole early on in the competition, when she did not correctly hear a word.
The word was disgust, but from what she spelled she apparently heard an entirely different word, as she correctly spelled discussed.
Brandon Johnson, also a seventh grader, was the runner up in the contest.
Two students in grades five through eight patriciated in the double elimination event. Each student was not eliminated from the competition until misspelling two words.
The contest lasted more than a half hour as misspellings eliminated students one at a time.
In addition to Callie and Brandon, students who participated in the spelling bee were Nelson Cuellar, Tommy Velasco, Troy Parulski, Danielle Chapin, Chantel Henderson and David Gonzalez.
Callie won a first place prize of 50 Chamber Bucks. Brandon got 20 Chamber Bucks and the other students each won ten Chamber Bucks.
As the local champion, Callie moves onto the next round of the contest, which is in Mankato on Feb. 12.

I'm Ashley (McMillan) Weightman. I grew up in the small town of Wimbledon, North Dakota. In 2005 I moved to Bismarck to go to school where I graduated from the University of Mary with a Bachelors Degree in Communications and Business. I began working at the CBS affiliate as a reporter while in college and spent three years there. From CBS, I moved to Devils Lake to work at WDAZ-TV for a year, before continuing to work at WDAZ in Grand Forks. I married the love of my life Travis on June 23, 2012 and we now live in Bismarck with our three year old son, Corbin. Travis works at KXMB-TV and I at KLJ Engineering and attend Rasmussen College where I'm pursing a Bachelors Degree in Human Resources Management and Organizational Leadership.
Weight has been a struggle for me since I can remember. I do well for a while and then fall off the wagon. Four years ago I lost nearly 50lbs and was doing great. Two months after maintaining my weight, I found out that I was pregnant and gained 70lbs in nine months. I figured after I had Corbin, some of the pounds would fall off. Corbin weight 8lbs 12oz and I only lost 3lbs. Ever since December of 2009, I've been doing fad diets for about a month, trying the gym on and off, and eat healthy and nothing seems to be working. I've recently had some health issues and my doctor told me that in order to have more children and be a part of my children's life, I need to lose weight, but most importantly, I need to do it for me.
On Friday I was offered a new job with an engineering firm. I happily accepted. What was the first thing that I suggested to my husband? Lets go out to eat to celebrate! Why do we do this? Because it's easy? Because I want my favorite food to make me happier? I honestly have no idea.
We went to one of my favorite places where we don't usually go. I never ordered the salad bar, but tonight I decided to try it. I ate two salads and ended up boxing up 3/4 of my most favorite dish! I felt so good when I left! I wasn't stuffed, but I felt content!! It was great!
I've decided salads are ok and for me, that is a huge thing. I "hated" lettuce and vegetables for the longest time and I'm working to try new things.
I forgot to weigh on Tuesday, so when I weigh this coming Tuesday, I'll let you know my weight and the changes I'm seeing!

City schools plan anti-bullying meetings
Three gatherings scheduled for parents, community residents
Published: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 11:41 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | The Tuscaloosa city school system is holding three community meetings for parents and Tuscaloosa residents next month on its new anti-bullying program, HALT.
Anti-bullying meetings
All meetings are at 6 p.m.
April 2: Tuscaloosa board of education
April 9: Southview Middle School
April 16: Westlawn Middle School
The meetings will be on April 2 at the city board of education, April 9 at Southview Middle School and April 16 at Westlawn Middle School. All three meetings will start at 6 p.m.
Loucrecia Collins, a University of Alabama at Birmingham professor who specializes in creating and implementing bullying policy and programs, will be the speaker.
Vickie Brown, director of student services for the school system, said the target audience will be parents and community members.
"We feel like we're doing a good job educating our students about bullying, but we want parents and the community to know about it as well," Brown said.
HALT, or Harassment Awareness Learning Together, is a bullying awareness and prevention program that was started at the beginning of the 2012-13 school year.
Brown said the program has helped reduce the number of documented bullying cases in the system from 94 on March 31, 2012, to 81 as of March 2013.
"It's not a dramatic reduction, but it's still a decrease from last year," Brown said. "I think the awareness component of the HALT program has been the most successful part. All the school buses have HALT posters on them and all the kids know the HALT pledge, they know how to report bullying, how to resolve it before it escalates and they know what bullying is."
Brown said according to the school system, bullying is intentional, deliberate, occurs frequently over a period of time and involves an imbalance of power where the victim is fearful of being hurt or harmed.
She said the HALT program has educated students this school year about how to prevent bullying, report it confidentially and to not be bystanders when others are being bullied. She said they've achieved this through monthly speeches, programs and paraphernalia like HALT bracelets.
"We already had the bullying reporting forms that were state required, but what we decided as a district was to come up with something that was more proactive and preventive," she said. "We created Stand Strong bracelets, taught students what it's like to be the victim and the bully and, more importantly, we trained them on how to be an 'upstander' instead of a bystander.
"We taught that because if bullies don't have an audience, the likelihood of them bullying is less," she said.
In addition to education and literature, the system hired a HALT coordinator that follows up on reports of bullying in the school system and makes sure that bullying situations are resolved.
"That's the best thing we could implement because when we have reports, we have resolution to them now," she said.
Next year, Brown said they're going to add a comprehensive intervention component to the HALT program and create HALT Heroes where students will lead bullying initiatives in their schools.

Whether you think it's too hipster-ish, overdone, an easy out, or unimaginative; or whether you find yourself constantly fighting it's corner, with strong beliefs that it's adorable, with endless iterations, suitable for any project… Vintage type / graphics elements / colour palettes & textural effects do have their place in amongst modern day graphic design trends.
So what better way to jump on the bandwagon – or indeed, continue your ride – than to immerse yourself in the world of this new beautiful Tumblr collection: Type Hunting.
It's certainly inspired me to keep an eye out for similar examples at the flea markets on my imminent road trip around Europe (had to get that in somewhere).

An Oak Ridge High School student spent about two hours in the Anderson County jail Thursday afternoon after he was arrested for allegedly punching the School Resource Officer in the face.
Police Officer Roy Heinz arrested 18-year-old Christopher Lee Arwood shortly after 11 a.m. Thursday for reportedly assaulting a police officer after a disturbance in the high school cafeteria. Arwood, of 109 Dewey Road, was released from jail Thursday afternoon after posting a $2,000 bond.
A hearing in General Sessions Court is scheduled for Jan. 28.
School Resource Officer Sherrill Selby was called to the cafeteria for a disturbance involving Arwood, who reportedly had "threatened a teacher with violence." Selby tried to intervene and escort Arwood from the cafeteria, which was full of students, court records said.
Arwood, "already enraged, became more agitated and, using a closed fist, punched Officer Selby on the left side of her face."
Selby was in "full uniform" and sustained "some minor injury," according to records.

We all know and love Semi-Permanent, but it's not the only great design event out there. There are some excellent creative conferences happening that might have passed you by - until now! Check out our go-to events below.
Field Trip
Ever been to a creative conference, listened to a great speaker talk about their life's work, but wish they could explain in more details how on earth they'd come up with something so brilliant? Field Trip tries to answer that feeling. A collaboration between the Jacky Winter Group and Australian Infront, Field Trip features six industry professionals who, just like in a live cooking show, take you through their recipe for success, sharing their creative process from start to finish. It hits Sydney this year on Tuesday 27th August.
A series of inspirational breakfast-time talks dreamt up by Tina Roth Eisenberg, aka Swiss Miss (who's also the founder of other super successful side-projects TeuxDeux and Tattly). CM has just celebrated its first birthday, and the best part is that this lecture series is completely free. If you haven't had the chance yet to get along to one, there are video recordings of the presentations. Check out their site for upcoming talks.
It's not all about seeing how they light up the Opera House - Vivid is the chance to share some great creative ideas. Last week Irish artist David Shrigley talked through his creative process; the week before &company sponsored a series of industry talks called "Design Your Day Job". We personally like the sound of Freelance Fridays, a chance for all your isolated freelancers out there to pop on down to the MCA to meet other like-minded creatives to wind down after your week working alone. Vivid comes to a close next Monday, 10 June.
Essential Titles
The Sydney Film Festival is the perfect opportunity to gawk at the very best title sequences in cinema history. (Our personal favourites are Robert Brownjohn's projected type in From Russia With Love, and the incredible shadow-puppet illustration end credits to Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events.) From Thursday 6th June until Friday 14th June the Sydney Film Festival Hub will be showing a video installation by Canadian artist Barr Gilmore, which remixes 100 famous titles sequences.
Heading down to Melbourne soon? See what Creative Women's Circle have coming up; their conversations with industry leaders are always fascinating. Sex Drugs and Helvetica, the one-day talk created by the founder of Positive Posters, Nick Hallam, will be happening in August.
If you happen to be flying up to the Sunshine State this September, Typism is a new Brisbane-based conference celebrating the best typographers in Australia right now. But don't forget the two awesome conferences that happened in Brissie earlier this year - Analogue/Digital and Responsive Projects gathered a bunch of talented creatives together to talk about design's role in society. Keep those two in mind for next year.

Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver
Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver
Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.
With its uniquely mystical appearance, quartz was the "rock crystal" used in ancient times to make crystal balls. It was believed to attract energy and is still considered to be spiritual today. The gemstone was once believed to be a compact form of ice. In fact, the Greeks originally named quartz "krystallos," meaning ice, but this terminology soon applied to any type of crystal.
Often identified by its six-sided prism shape, quartz is the most common mineral on Earth, found in nearly every environment throughout the globe. With a ranking of 7.0 on the Mohs Scale, it is a component of almost every rock type and occurs in virtually every color imaginable. Quartz has a great amount varieties that are well-known by other names, including amethyst, citrine, ametrine, rock crystal, agate, druzy, chalcedony, tigers eye and many more. There are also several varieties that hold the name "quartz," including rose quartz, smokey quartz and rutilated quartz.
The pale pink color of quartz is known as rose quartz, the traditional gift for couples celebrating their 2nd anniversary. It is a delicate powder pink color that ranges from transparent to translucent. Transparent rose quartz is quite rare and is usually so pale that it does not show much color, except in large sizes. The translucent quality of rose quartz is much more common and is used for jewelry and carvings.
Rose quartz is probably one of the most prized stones for its mystical properties. Known as the "Heart Stone," it is believed to have incredible powers to balance emotions and open the heart. Folklore says rose quartz can comfort brokenhearted people, bringing healing and clarity to the heart and allowing the wearer to learn to trust again. The stone is also said to foster happiness and the joy of life by bringing about contentment in love and filling one with optimism, tenderness and gentleness.
In addition to helping with romantic love, rose quartz is believed to enhance all other forms of love as well, including self-love, platonic and maternal. Its loving, nurturing energy is said to take away fears, resentment and anger and replace them with feelings of higher self-esteem and confidence. This soothing stone is also thought to balance emotions and heal emotional wounds. It is said to be especially powerful in times of stress or loss, bringing peace and calm to the wearer.
Ranging in color from nearly black to smoky brown, smoky quartz is transparent and owes its warm earthen hue to exposure to natural radioactivity. Care must be taken since its rich color will fade in the sun. Spelled either "smoky" or "smokey," this variety of quartz is often incorrectly called "smoky topaz."
Smoky quartz is believed to help dissolve negative energy, release stress and relieve depression. It is said to be a mild sedative with a relaxing effect that calms, soothes and restores balance and harmony. Folklore says the gem can embrace dark areas with light and love and therefore clear and cleanse the body both physically and emotionally. Smoky quartz is thought to be a warm, friendly and down-to-earth gem.
Rutilated quartz is a type of transparent rock crystal that contains long, fine needles of rutile crystals (titanium dioxide). These highly valued inclusions form a landscape of shining gold needles in an array of patterns that is breathtakingly beautiful. These golden inclusions are also known as Venus hair, Cupid's darts and fleches d'amour ("arrows of love"). There is a less well-known variety called tourmalinated quartz that, instead of golden rutile, forms black or dark green tourmaline crystals.
Although rutilated quartz is usually cut as a cabochon, it can be a difficult stone to attain a smooth surface without pits. This is because rutile ranks a 6.0 on the Mohs Scale, while quartz ranks 7.0. The difference in hardness between the two materials, and because of the way rutile forms inside, causes problems when cutting. Each final cut piece is unique, with no two being exactly alike. Modern folklore says rutilated quartz brings forth each person's strengths, originality and ability to relate to others.

STOCKTON - Two boys died when a 13-year-old car thief and his 15-year-old passenger crashed a stolen vehicle into a building during a high-speed pursuit with California Highway Patrol officers early Saturday morning in north Stockton, authorities said.
The fatal crash occurred about 1:45 a.m. at the Chevron gas station at West Benjamin Holt Drive and Pacific Avenue, across the street from Lincoln Center, officials said. According to authorities, a CHP patrol car spotted a 1994 Honda Accord traveling south on Thornton Road north of Lucile Road. The car was moving at a high speed and making unsafe passes, police said. The CHP unit tried to initiate a traffic stop, but the boys led officers on a high-speed chase. The driver lost control while going south on Pacific Avenue, crashing into the Chevron building just south of West Benjamin Holt Drive.
The boys' names have not been released. Neither was wearing a seat belt and both died of blunt force trauma, authorities said. Alcohol was not believed to be a factor.

Seneca coach Will King has been saying it for some time now, that his Indians are a special team. A cohesive unit loaded with clutch performers that has carried his team all season, King's assessment of his team was only strengthened on Saturday when the Indians pulled out a thrilling 51-47 overtime victory over the Mount Vernon Mountaineers in the Class 3, District 12 championship game.
"It is a special team," King said. "You look at our floor general Kyler Ng, who is just tremendous on the floor and on the floor and he does a ton for us. But then you look at everybody else too. If you look at our scorers all year we've been balanced all year. We've had different guys score — different guys hit shots. They all do so many parts and they all get along so good. And they're just such great kids that it's just a special team."
Where to start? The Mountaineers led almost the entire way, but never could shake the resilient Indians, who stayed within striking distance for the duration of the contest. Chandler Myers carried a Mountaineers team that saw just four players score in the contest. Myers racked up 28 points.
But it still wasn't enough. Players stepped up all over the floor for the Indians, particularly from behind the arc as they knocked down 10 3-pointers in the contest. In fact, the Indians closed the final 11:40 of regulation making nothing but 3-pointers, accounting for 21-straight points from behind the arc.
"I know every coach brags on their kids, but man, my kids, they work so hard," King said. "They battled hard all year, they stuck to the gameplan. We knew it would be a battle."
After trailing 22-17 at halftime, the Indians came alive in the third when they found their stroke from long range. Junior Seth Harris buried a trey with 4:23 remaining in the third to finally draw the Indians even at 24-24. That was the first of two dime's for Harris in the period, and Ng followed with one with 1:00 to go in the quarter to put the Indians in front, 30-29.
The Indians then went on to collect four 3-pointers in the fourth, as Ng hit two, Harris one and Bradley Jumper one. With the score tied at 42 at the end of regulation, Jumper would go on to hit one more key three, his fourth and final one of the game, with 1:24 left in overtime to make it 47-45, Indians. Ng later hit a pair of free throws to help seal it with 13 seconds left.
"We've got shooters, and I think it's just a matter of time (until) our shooters get heated up," King said. "They've hit on that all year long, so I know at a time they're going to hit big shots, and they did tonight."
Page 2 of 2 - Ng finished with 15 points to lead the Indians, followed closely by Jumper with 13 and Harris with 10, while Logan St. Clair added seven, Elias Roelfsema four and Chance Smith two.
Shane Williams added nine for the Mountaineers, while Zane Phillips tossed in seven and Skylar Phillips three.
Seneca made it to the district title game after edging Clever 54-43 on Friday.
The Indians (21-7) will move on to face Strafford (23-4) at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Baptist Bible College in Springfield.

Local hospital eyes new clinic
Published: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 6:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 6:32 p.m.
The Lady of the Sea General Hospital in South Lafourche is seeking to borrow money for a new clinic at the hospital.
Don Werner, the hospital's CEO, said the hospital's board is seeking the authority to borrow $3 million to finance the new facility.
Werner issued a report to the Lafourche Parish Council in late January asking permission to take the proposal to voters.
The Parish Council will vote Tuesday night on whether to give the hospital permission to go to voters.
Werner said the hospital's financial condition is perhaps as good as its ever been, and the money would be repaid partially through savings from running the clinic.
"Reinvesting in the hospital is a better use of tax dollars," Werner said.
The clinic will be the consolidation of two satellite clinics in the South Lafourche area.
Werner said the clinic will serve the general health needs of patients and have about seven practitioners. The new building will also house a business office and be built at the hospital's main campus at Galliano.
The hospital will save more than $100,000 spent annually to lease the two off-campus clinics, Werner said. It will also be closer to the hospital's outpatient testing labs, making the hospital's services more convenient for patients, Werner said.
"We have one clinic that we have had for years. There is no way we can expand it. The maintenance is high, and we need a more modern health care facility," Werner said. "By consolidating there will be quite a cost savings that will be used to pay for the clinic."
Werner said a 0.2 mill would be added to help pay for the expansion, which voters would consider May 2. The hospital levees 4.14 mills for operations and maintenance.
The expansion is in addition to $2 million in renovations already happening at the hospital.
Councilman Daniel Lorraine, who represents the area, said the clinic has been needed for a while, and he supports the effort to borrow the money. "I think it's going to be a good thing, and it makes sense because the clinic operations will eventally pay for itself," Lorraine said.

The event was hosted by the School Board and the Henderson County Retired School Personnel at First Baptist Church in Hendersonville.
Many of the retirees had more than 20 years of service in the county school system. Taken together, the group had a total of 1,242 years of service.
When Melissa Roberts told her fourth-grade students at Clear Creek Elementary that she was retiring at the end of the school year, "they sobbed," she recalled. She's taught at the school since 2002.
The most gratifying part of her 39-year teaching career has been watching her students "grow and become a strong people. You can see them learn about the consequences of their behavior — both negative and positive. You can see the magic in their eyes as they learn and master something."
Roberts is still developing her retirement plans with her husband, Eddie.
Life Skills teacher David Mackey is retiring after 29 years of teaching, the last 13 at Hendersonville Middle. He teaches culinary skills to sixth- and seventh- graders and teaches manners and etiquette to eighth-graders.
He said the best part of his job is that he's teaching students "skills they are going to use later in life. And they take those skills home and share them with their family, so we're teaching more than just the kids in our school."
Mackey also enjoys the fact that "I teach every kid in our school, so I know all of these kids on a personal level."
When he told his students he was retiring, "They begged me to stay. They'd say, 'Just stay to teach my little sister, or my little brother.' They're my kids if you know what I mean. I love each and every one and I'm blessed to be a teacher."
In retirement, he plans to work his farm, tending to beef cattle and growing corn.
"And I look forward to spending more time with my wife," he said with a smile. Mackey is married to Debbie and has a son, Clark.
Mary West of North Henderson High is retiring after 30 years. She teaches English to sophomores and Advanced Placement literature to seniors. The best parts of her job are helping seniors find the right college and sophomores with their writing.
"When they pass their writing test, they're so proud of themselves," she said with a smile.
When she announced her retirement, "the seniors were glad I was graduating with them. They thought it was great that we went out together."
West plans to "travel and read books of my choice," she said with a laugh. She is married to husband Alden and has three children, Greg, Suzanne and Lesley.
"My successes in education are because of the opportunity I've had to work with so many wonderful educators," said Sallie Carr, who is retiring in her fourth year as principal of Sugarloaf Elementary. She has a total of 30 years in education, 26 in Henderson County. The best part of her job is "working with teachers to make children lifelong learners. You hope you're making a difference."
Carr hasn't yet made her formal retirement announcement at the school "because I don't want to cry." She also hasn't made solid plans for what to do with her time after retirement, noting that she has "closets to clean out and lots of yard work to do. And my husband is looking forward to some home-cooked meals." She is married to husband Gene and has three children, Addie, Sarah and Jack.
Also at the banquet, former student Leslie Runyan spoke about the importance of teachers in her life. She attended Henderson County schools from elementary through high school before going on to Blue Ridge Community College.
Earlier this year, she was the recipient of a scholarship from Henderson County Retired School Personnel, a gift she said allowed her to graduate from BRCC this May. She currently works as a teacher assistant at Bell School, a preschool in Fletcher, where she's taught since 2011 while working her way through college.
"Building those solid relationships and being able to connect with my own teachers are what made me pursue a degree in early childhood education," she said. "I've always wanted to be able to say that I taught a child something — and feel proud of it. I now get to do that on a daily basis thanks to all of you sitting in this room."

The guys at Antrepo have got this interesting project going on which is called 'Minimalist effect in a maximalist market'. They've taken existing brands and gradually stripped back the elements on the packaging until what's left at the end is just one font (which is Helevtica Neu Bold) without a logo or corporate sign on it. I think I'd agree with one of the comments that says that the third option usually works the best (for part two of the project). Nice and simple but still enough of the brand's own personality to make it stand out.

Summer plays underway at Sandburg home
Published: Sunday, July 7, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, July 5, 2013 at 1:24 p.m.
Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site and Flat Rock Playhouse have opened two shows, "Rootabaga!" and "The World of Carl Sandburg," which run through Aug. 10 in the Carl Sandburg Home amphitheater in Flat Rock.
These free shows have been performed at the Sandburg Home since 1974 and are the result of a partnership between Carl Sandburg Home NHS and the Flat Rock Playhouse, where members of the Playhouse Apprentice Program perform the shows.
"Performing at the Carl Sandburg Home is one of the highlights of the summer for our apprentice company," said Vincent Marini, artistic director of Flat Rock Playhouse. "For decades now, we have had a close relationship with our friends and neighbors at Sandburg.
"We use these unique performance opportunities as recruiting tools that help us attract top-notch, emerging performers. We choose our apprentice company from over 1,000 auditionees, and I know our ongoing partnership with the Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site has been and will continue to be vital to our ability to attract the very best talent in the Southeast.
"I encourage everyone to come out and see both of our productions and experience the beauty of Carl Sandburg's work uniquely presented by some extraordinary young performers," he said.
Flat Rock Playhouse was founded in 1936 as the Vagabond Players, and from the inception of the company, training theater artists has been a vital part of the mission. Over the years, more than 1,000 students have been apprentices at the Playhouse. Many continue to be a part of the company and the full-time Playhouse staff.
Sandburg enjoyed exploring America, journeying first through the Midwest as a hobo in 1897, selling stereoviews door-to-door in the Northeast and traveling on the first cross-continental jet flight in 1959. His experiences, living, working and writing about everyday Americans, "the toolmakers, the stackers of wheat" gave his poetry a rugged, individual free verse style.
The shows begin at 10:15 a.m. at the park amphitheater adjacent to the Sandburg Home. Wednesday and Friday's 30-minute performance is "The World of Carl Sandburg," based on the 1960 Broadway production.
Thursday and Saturday's performance is "Rootabaga!" based on tales from Sandburg's collection of children's stories found in "Rootabaga Stories." The stories are set to musical tunes from Sandburg's collection of folk music found in his "American Songbag." The result is 30 minutes of zany, toe-tapping stories that promise to delight children of all ages.
Performances are held rain or shine. Call 828-693-4178 or visit www.nps.gov/carl for more information.

This Tuesday the St. John Tigers men and women will be playing Wichita's Word of Life at the Champion Church, located at 1156 North Oliver.
The games should be interesting, especially the men's game. "The Tigers play a very talented Word of Life team," said St. John's head coach Clint Kinnamon. "They beat perennial national power Vashon this season." And according to Maxspreps, they have a record of five wins and four loses. But that's very deceptive, considering the caliber of competition they face. They barely lost to Independence 56-59, beat Vashon 42-38, defeated North Kansas City 49-47, lost to Raytown South 51-54 and lost to Manhattan 42-65. They've clobbered several Church and independent schools.
On the girls side, the Lady Tigers will face a 3-9 Word of Life squad. Most of the teams they play are Church, independent and Indian schools. They did play Parsons, losing 51-72, lost to Manhattan 25-86 and defeated Liberal 57-22.
The games will NOT be played in their high school but in a larger gym located right next to the Champion Church on North Oliver.
The quickest way to get to the game is to take the K-96 bypass that goes around north Wichita and turn off on the Oliver Street Exit - go south past 21st 17th and 13th streets until you arrive at the Church which is located on the southeast corner of Oliver and 11th street.

Saints senior athlete Johnathan Surber will continue on with his track and cross country career in college. John has agreed to run track at Buena Vista University in Storm Lake, IA next year.
Former Saint standout Brian Chirstiansen is finishing up his track and cross country career at Buena Vista. John said visiting Christiansen this year kind of sealed the deal for him as far as determining that Buena Vista was best for him.
John said he got a good financial aid package and he intends to run both cross country and track. John said he really likes Buena Vista Head Coach Jeff Brennan.
Saints Cross Country Head Coach Kyle Blomgren said, "He has put a lot of thought into where he wanted to go. He will be an impact runner for them both in CC and track. Coach Brennan has some great plans for him and said John was their top prospect. I'll enjoy keeping up with his progress."
Blomgren continued, "Johnathan has been a leader and an inspiration for our team since he was in seventh grade. I believe he has been the only St. James athlete to compete at the state level in his/her sport all six years of his career.
"He's been all-conference and all-section 5 times, and all-state 3 times. Johnathan was fortunate to have had some great runners in his younger days to show him what the tradition of Saints CC was, and he, in turn, has carried on that legacy.
"I feel fortunate to have had the chance to coach a young man with Johnathan's ability and character and am positive that he will make a significant impact upon the program and his teammates at BVU. I wish him the best! Go Beavers!!!"

The lovely Alyson from GF Smith here in London popped in earlier this week to give the full time students the lowdown on all things printed. As always, a truly engaging and inspiring experience with heaps of great print samples, demonsarting a range of print and finishing techniques. It really drives home the point of there being great value in keeping a design understated... paper being just another part of a designer's aresenal, sitting comfortably alongside typography, colour, grids and composition.

When Norman Hajjar rides around the country, he rides around the country. The long distance driver has just finished an epic 24-day, 12,000-mile national tour, driving a stock Tesla S model electric automobile.
Hajjar's journey began in the Pacific Northwest, traversing Washington and Oregon before crossing California from top to bottom and heading east -- to Maine, via Wyoming and South Dakota. Then he drove the Tesla south to Florida, then back north to Pennsylvania before turning west and retracing the route back to California.
The epic jaunt was an attempt to set a Guinness record for electric vehicle driving and also something of a publicity stunt: Hajjar steered the $89,770 Tesla on behalf of his employer, the electric vehicle software and analytics company Recargo, as part of a public call for a better national network of electric vehicle charging stations.
Hajjar is managing director of PlugInsights, which is Recargo's research division.
The entire drive took three weeks and three days, involved more than 100 stops at charging stations and daily 14- to 16-hour stints behind the wheel.
The point, Hajjar said, was "to amplify the point that the electric vehicle has come of age. The only thing that's holding back this category is the lack of a fast charging infrastructure."
The eccentric route, which ended Monday afternoon at Recargo's headquarters in Venice, was determined less by scenery or the location of Hajjar's relatives than by available Tesla "Supercharger" stations, which are dotted around the country. It was also limited by Tesla's advertised 260-mile driving range.
Hajjar estimates his average drive per charge, over the length of the 12,184-mile trip, was 120 to 130 miles. He'd stop at Supercharger stations, and fill the average one-hour charging time by getting witness testimonials to support his Guinness effort, by practicing guitar, or by using FaceTime to catch up with his family.
He puts the cost of the drive for a gas-powered vehicle at about $1,700. For him, in total, the cost of meals and motels was well under that, he said -- in part because he did a lot of what he called "Tesla camping."
"I'd just keep driving until I got drowsy, and then I'd pull off the road," he said. "Sometimes that would be at 3 in the morning, so there was no point in getting a hotel room."
Palo Alto-based Tesla sold about 23,000 cars last year.

Stockmar wax is an ideal modelling material. The experience of modelling stimulates creativity and invention. The wax becomes pliable when warmed in the hands or placed near a heater or in warm water. Please Note: This is a set of 15 different colors.
Start with simple shapes and animals using one color at a time. Figures can become more complicated with experience. The joy of beeswax is that it uses the child's warmth to become usable and it can be warmed and reused indefinitely.
The beautiful flower, chicken, and egg scene was created by the two 7 year olds in our picture below - in just a few minutes. They preferred to dip the beeswax into a bowl of hot water to soften it and make it easier to mix colors in a beautiful way. One of the girls created this beautiful flower bush while she was sick last week. She was so proud of her creation - it certainly cheered her up! Made in Germany.
