Community supports boy battling cancer
Submitted: 10/20/2013
Story By Shardaa Gray
- No parent wants to see their child in pain.
But that's something a Merrill family battles after their three-year-old son was diagnosed with cancer.
Their community is giving them their support.
Brian Stollarczyk preaches at Trinity Lutheran Church in Merrill.
He gives comfort to people in their time of need.
Now he needs their comfort.
"Back in April our son went through a period where he got real pale and then suddenly had a little fever," Stollarczyk said.
"We thought ok, we'll take him to the doctor and get some antibiotics prescribed."
That's when they found out three-year-old Luke Stollarczyk has Leukemia.
He'll have numerous treatments over the next three years.
"It's even hard to know what to say or what to do. You're just trying to absorb what's happening to your child, much less the treatments they are prescribing," said Stollarczyk.
"Without faith we wouldn't have much to hold on to."
But he says he has a lot to hold on to, a whole community to be exact.
The members of his church decided to put a fundraiser together to help pay with medical bills.
"We saw a need for the Stollarcyk family. Even though there is insurance involved here, there's a lot of extra cost for pastor and Sarah." said Board of Elders chairman, Jack Kleinschmidt.
More than 600 people showed their support at the Merrill Eagle Club Sunday.
"Our pastor sometimes fills in for churches that are without a pastor at the given time. So he really knows a lot of people in the community." Fellowship Ministry board member, Sherrie Kleinschmidt said.
The people Stollarczyk touched are now returning the favor.
For Luke, events like this takes a lot of energy.
He didn't have much to say, but he is grateful.
"Can you say thank you Luke? Thank you."
With the help of his community and family, Luke will need to save that energy for his battle ahead.

Study finds elevated fish tumor levels in 3 Wisconsin rivers
Submitted: 08/27/2016
- Researchers have found elevated numbers of tumors in fish in the Milwaukee, Menomonee and Kinnickinnic rivers, suggesting that more cleanup efforts are needed to remove contaminants from the three Wisconsin waterways.
The study led by the U.S. Geological Survey found elevated skin and liver tumors in white suckers. It also found that some male white suckers sampled for the study had testicular tumors. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports (http://bit.ly/2bsUOyk ) that finding was a surprise as those tumors had not often been found in other research projects involving polluted rivers targeted for cleanups.
The study, published in the Journal of Fish Diseases, says exact cause of the tumors isn't known. But previous research has suggested that exposure to certain chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons can cause liver tumors in fish.

- Normally when you think of horse races, you think short sprints, but that wasn't the case in Conover on Saturday.
The Northern Highland Endurance Ride brought riders from all over the Northwoods together.
"Often you're out there alone and it's just you and your horse," said longtime rider and veterinarian Taryn Lindbeck.
She says riders and horses share a bond that's strengthened with each mile of long distance endurance riding.

First Lakeland Public Safety Day benefits Minocqua Police K9 program
Submitted: 08/27/2016
Play Video
- The Minocqua Police Department wants a new member of its police squad--specifically a police dog.
The department has been fundraising for a K9 for the past year or so.
On Saturday the Lakeland Area Public Task Force held Lakeland Area Public Safety day as a way to raise money.
Squad cars, ambulance trucks, fire trucks, and every type of rescue crew from both Oneida and Vilas counties showed off their gear.
"These guys came out to donate their time so that these kids could have fun, climb around in fire trucks, squad cars, and the DNR boats, everything, just to educate them a little bit and to have a good time," said Minocqua Police Officer Matt Tate.
Police dogs can cost thousands of dollars. Officer Tate said the department is getting close to its goal, but isn't quite there yet.
The event wasn't just to raise money. It was also about community and education.
"It's important that we do these fundraising events so people see not only where some of their tax dollars are going but also look, these are the resources we have so if you need us you can call," Tate said.
This was first year of the event. Tate said they plan to host it next year and the proceeds for that will go to a different organization.

Appeals court refuses to reconsider Wisconsin voter ID cases
Submitted: 08/27/2016
- A federal appeals court has refused to reconsider a pair of rulings affecting Wisconsin's voter ID law, meaning no more changes to the requirement are likely before the November election.
The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday unanimously declined to have a full panel of judges hear appeals of two recent rulings affecting the voter ID requirement and a host of other election-related laws. The U.S. Supreme Court would have to intervene for any changes to happen before the election Nov. 8.
The appeals court's upholding the earlier rulings means that Wisconsin voters will have to show an acceptable ID to vote, but those having trouble getting it can get a temporary ID from the Division of Motor Vehicles.

The Latest: Man, 46, charged in deaths of 2 Mississippi nuns
Submitted: 08/27/2016
- 1:30 p.m.
A former nun who knew one of the two nuns slain in Mississippi says she had always been interested in working with the "poorest of the poor."
Darlene Nicgorski said Saturday that she had recruited Sister Margaret Held to come to Holly Springs, Mississippi, to work as a social worker in a program there that ran schools and offered day care to help young mothers finish school.
Nicgorski said Held was "always interested in working with the marginalized, the underserved, the poorest of the poor."
Held and Sister Paula Merrill were found dead Thursday in their Mississippi home. A suspect was arrested late Friday and charged in their killings.
Nicgorski said the sisters' deaths just don't make sense. She said they would have given the suspect anything he needed.
The Kentucky-based order where one of two slain nuns belonged says the order is establishing a memorial fund to continue her work.
Diane Curtis, a spokeswoman for Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, said they have received messages from around the world from people asking how they can support them in this tragedy.
The fund will be established through the order's website at http://bit.ly/2bIAee8 .
She says it will be used to "continue the legacy of Sister Paula, to minister to the poor."
The order is also asking for prayers for all involved in the tragedy.
She says Merrill went to Kentucky from Aug. 17 until Monday to meet with others from Sisters of Charity.
Curtis called it a "beautiful visit."
11:55 a.m.
The clinic where two slain nuns worked says the man accused of killing them was not a patient there.
Dr. Elias Abboud, the physician who oversees the clinic, says he called the office manager after he saw there was an arrest made to check if Rodney Earl Sanders had been a patient at the clinic but he was not.
Sanders was arrested late Friday in the deaths of two nuns whose bodies were found Thursday. Sisters Paula Merrill and Margaret Held were both nurses who had spent about 30 years helping people in Mississippi.
Abboud says the community and the patients will miss them.
Father Greg Plata (PLATT-ah) of Greenwood, Mississippi, is sacramental minister at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Lexington, where the Sister Margaret Held and Sister Paula Merrill had led Bible study for years.
Plata said Saturday that he does not think people at the church knew 46-year-old Rodney Earl Sanders of Kosciusko, who has been charged with two counts of capital murder in the slayings of the nuns.
Sanders was arrested late Friday and is being held at an undisclosed location while he waits for an initial court appearance to be set. Mississippi Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain said Saturday he does not know whether Sanders is represented by an attorney.
The bodies of Held and Merrill were found Thursday in their home in Durant, Mississippi.
11:30 a.m.
The order of one of the nuns killed in Mississippi has issued a statement that thanks the law enforcement officers who are working on the case.
The statement by the U.S. Province Leadership Team, School Sisters of St. Francis, says Sister Margaret Held belonged to their community.
The community offered its "deepest appreciation" to investigators and to "the hundreds of people and organizations who offered their prayers and words of support in the wake of the sisters' deaths."
The bodies of Held and Sister Paul Merrill of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth were found Thursday in their Mississippi home. The women worked as nurse practitioners at a clinic for the poor. Rodney Earl Sanders, 46, of Kosciusko (cause-ee-EH-sko), Mississippi faces capital murder charges in their deaths.
10:40 a.m.
The nephew of a nun who was killed in Mississippi says he's thankful a suspect has been arrested so that no one else is at risk but that it does not bring closure to the grieving family.
David Merrill, speaking by telephone from Stoneham, Mass., says he heard about the arrest of Rodney Earl Sanders early Saturday morning.
He says the family is "thankful that he's off the streets," but the family still has to deal with the loss.
Sanders is accused of killing Sisters Paula Merrill and Margaret Held, whose bodies were found Thursday in their Mississippi home.
David Merrill says he agrees with the idea of forgiveness and trying to forgive the person who killed his aunt and her fellow nun. But he says he's "not as strong" as his aunt, and he's not sure if he's "capable of completely forgiving."
9:40 a.m.
Authorities in Mississippi don't anticipate any more arrests in the slayings of two nuns.
Forty-six-year-old Rodney Earl Sanders of Kosciusko (cause-ee-EH-sko), Mississippi, was charged late Friday with two counts of capital murder in the deaths of Sister Margaret Held and Sister Paula Merrill, both 68.
State Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain tells The Associated Press that as of Saturday, "investigators believe Sanders acted alone."
Sanders is being held at an undisclosed jail and his initial court appearance has not been set. Strain says he doesn't know whether Sanders is represented by an attorney.
The bodies of Held and Merrill were discovered Thursday in their home in Durant, Mississippi, after they failed to show up for work at a clinic in nearby Lexington, where they were nurse practitioners.
1:15 a.m.
A spokeswoman for the Kentucky-based congregation where one of two murdered Mississippi nuns will be buried has expressed thanks to those working to solve the case.
Diane Curtis, director of communications for Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, based in Nazareth, Kentucky, tells The Associated Press in a statement early Saturday: "Our congregation expresses gratitude to all who have been working so hard on this investigation. At this time we continue to pray for everyone involved in this tragedy."
Forty-six-year-old Rodney Earl Sanders of Kosciusko, Mississippi, was charged Friday night with two counts of capital murder in the deaths of Sister Margaret Held and Sister Paula Merrill, both 68.
Their bodies were discovered Thursday after they failed to show up for work at a clinic in Lexington, Mississippi, about 10 miles from where they lived.
Held will be buried in Wisconsin and Merrill will be buried at her congregation's headquarters in Nazareth, Kentucky.
12:30 a.m.
Authorities say they have charged a 46-year-old man in connection with the deaths of two nuns who were killed in Mississippi.
Mississippi Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain said in a statement Friday night that Rodney Earl Sanders of Kosciusko has been charged with two counts of capital murder in the deaths of Sister Margaret Held and Sister Paula Merrill, both 68.
Their bodies were discovered Thursday after they failed to show up for work at a clinic in Lexington, Mississippi, about 10 miles from where they lived.
Lt. Colonel Jimmy Jordan says "Sanders was developed as a person of interest early on in the investigation."
Sanders is being held in an undisclosed detention center awaiting his initial court appearance.

After seven days in seven countries — seven tour stops separated by long rides on a Boeing 777 — our long national nightmare is over: the Rihanna plane has landed in New York, carrying with it the 150 beleaguered fans and journalists who'd been held captive at the whim of their Barbadian mistress. But for many, the last few hours were the hardest.
Rihanna had disappeared. Flyers were distributed:
Exhaustion overtook the hostages.
But she emerged, for the first time since the plane had taken off a week ago, just before it landed in New York.
And with that, the hostages returned, to cheering throngs of Americans with yellow ribbons tied around their arms.
Throughout the #777Tour, Gawker.com will be bringing you updates about the status, location, activities and smells of the Rihanna Plane and its inhabitants, cobbled together from the infrequent, incomplete dispatches of the embedded Rihanna correspondents.

UNION CITY -- James Logan High football star Warren Miles Long affected games in multiple ways this past season.
Offensively, the Northwestern-bound Long was a challenge to bring down. The 5-foot-11, 195-pound running back rushed for 1,700 yards, averaging 10.3 yards per carry, and scored 21 rushing touchdowns and three receiving touchdowns.
Defensively, it was a challenge to keep Long away from the ball carrier. The outside linebacker netted 86 tackles, four sacks, two interceptions and one defensive touchdown.
Most impressive, he was a clutch performer in big games. Long rushed for 766 yards and 11 touchdowns in four postseason games, and he rushed for more yards against De La Salle (122) than any other player this season.
For his many accomplishments, Long has been named the 2012 Bay Area News Group East Bay Player of the Year.
"He's got Division I offers on both sides of the ball," James Logan coach George Zuber said. "There are not many guys that have that ability on both sides of the ball."
Long said Northwestern recruited him as a running back, and he likes to play that position more. But he always thought it was normal to play defense as well as offense.
"My dad brought it to my attention that not a lot of players played both ways," Long said. "That's weird to me. If you are one of the best players on your team, why not help them out on the other side of the ball?"
Zuber can describe many attributes of Long, both offensively and defensively.
"He has a phenomenal ability to make players miss, yet he will power right through you also. You see one or the other usually," Zuber said about Long's offensive talent. "He is a phenomenal outside linebacker. He's got that center of gravity that prevents him from being pushed back. ... To me, he's the best outside linebacker I've seen in a very long time."
Long gained 45 percent of his season rushing total in his four-game postseason, an eye-opening percentage. The Colts (12-2) reached the North Coast Section Division I title game, where Long earned his 122 yards on 18 carries against the Spartans, scoring on a 38-yard run.
"When you are an athlete, you know when to turn it on," said Long, who also received 41 percent of his season's rushing attempts in the postseason. He was limited to fewer than 10 carries in six lopsided regular-season wins.
Long certainly knows how to make an impact on the football field.

Just a few days left until the end of ski season and the beginning of a quiet period when all of us part-timers will depart paradise for our regular routines back home and the full-timers will head to Maui and other parts of the world to recover from their hectic winter schedules.
But our elected and appointed officials, whose job it is to make sure all is well and secure in paradise, still have a full plate of issues to work on while we're gone.
In no particular order of priority, here are several of the more important issues requiring further exploration, cogitation and resolution:
1. The hiring of a new director for the Snowmass marketing, group sales and special events department, in recent years referred to as Snowmass Tourism.
Susan Hamley, who's headed this department since its inception, recently resigned after a long and successful tenure. This department has an annual budget in the neighborhood of $5 million, 13 staff members and effectively 15 different bosses (nine board members, five council members and the town manager) often pulling in different directions at the same time, causing much stress to all involved, particularly the department director.
Preliminary to finding and hiring a new director, it appears that the marketing board, the town manager and a majority of the Town Council have come to the realization that some changes are necessary in the way things have been handled in the past in order to run a more collegial, efficient and productive department without all the stress and sturm und drang of the past.
In addition, a majority of the council realizes that without streamlining communication and coordination among
the council, board, town manager and department director, they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of attracting a highly qualified candidate to lead Snowmass Tourism.
2. As requested in my last column, the town is finally gearing up its forces to begin planning the completion of the entryway.
Although the bureaucrats are doing what they do best, which is to talk in flowery and often ambiguous terms, they finally appear to be moving, although more slowly than one would hope. But that's also what they do best.
There appears to be public and private money in rather sizeable amounts waiting on the sidelines to be put to good use to complete a proper entryway for our fair village. It appears the town will soon engage the community in a planning process that will expeditiously develop an acceptable plan for completion of this rather constrained area. There are several concepts already floating around, which include a multi-use arena for summer, fall and winter programming and events, stream restoration, a fishing pond and attractive landscaping.
3. The slow-moving and, up to this point, secretive Ice Age Discovery board has finally cracked open its closet door a bit and let us take a peek inside, at least as to what's in store for us in the short term.
They've proposed hiring a part-time, highly qualified executive director to further the board's mission of bringing initial ideas to fruition for this summer and to further explore the feasibility, priorities, costs and fundraising requirements of the broader, longer-term recommendations put forth by its consultant, John McCarter, the recently retired CEO of the Field Museum in Chicago.
The board has obtained $21,000 from the town's general fund to hire a part-time executive director and $22,500 from Snowmass Tourism to fund this summer's new programming, which would include installation of a fossil preparatory lab showcasing some of the actual bones discovered in Ziegler Reservoir, allowing for an interactive public look at the bones and what goes into prepping them for analysis as well as an Aspen Skiing Co.-funded "dig pit" to highlight the discovery aspect and ice-age replicas.
It's been slow going with these guys, but there now appears to be a few long-awaited major ripples on the pond. While you're relaxing and recharging your batteries in the offseason, I'll keep my eyes focused on the local landscape in order to ensure that the powers that be stay focused on moving these important issues to a positive conclusion.
I'm always open to your comments and suggestions at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Protect All, Gallon
4 Questions | 4 Answers
Read All Q&A | Ask a Question | Answer a Question
Just apply a small amount of Protect All to an area and wipe immediately with a clean dry cloth for even coverage and a rich lustrous shine. Protect All creates an incredibly slick, anti-static surface so dirt and grime will not stick, making future applications even easier than the first.
Protect All's unique formula dries clear in those hard to get to areas like the crevices around trim and molding. There is no white powdery residue that requires tedious detailing with a brush or Q-tip. Those difficult to reach areas have the benefit of Protect All's protection without the extra time and effort of detailing.
Produced by the wax palm tree in South America, carnauba is the hardest wax known to man. Although there are other ingredients in Protect All that provide the user with many unique benefits, the quality of carnauba wax incorporated into the formula is largely responsible for providing durable protection and a deep natural showroom shine.
The sun's ultra-violet light rays can damage most vehicle surfaces, some sooner than others. Hence, the need for automotive waxes, polishes and protectants. Paint and fiberglass gelcoat can breakdown in the form of oxidation, causing the surface to lose its shine and, in more severe cases, become chalky. Vinyl, plastic, rubber and leather can eventually begin to fade and, in severe cases, crack. With regular use, Protect All's highly effective UV absorber additive helps to protect all surfaces by absorbing the UV light rays and blocking them from reaching the vehicle's finish. Protect All's carnauba wax and UV absorber formula has been helping consumers keep all their vehicles looking new year after year.
Although there are many waxes, polishes and protectants to choose from, advanced formula Protect All stands out from all the rest because of its ability to work on virtually every vehicle surface: hard surfaces such as aluminum, fiberglass, chrome, stainless steel, softer surfaces such as vinyl, rubber and finished leather, easy to scratch, delicate surfaces such as paint, clear coats, plastic and wood, easy to streak and smear surfaces such as glass and Plexiglas. No other product on the market will work as well or as easy on as many different surfaces as Protect All. Gone are the days when you need to buy 5, 6, 7 or more products to beautify and protect all your vehicle surfaces.

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that's happy to hear that Hillary Clinton is actually human.
The former first lady, secretary of state and future contender for the White House (we'll see) had a little accident yesterday morning.
After a stomach bug dehydrated Super Hill, she fainted and gave herself a minor concussion. Though she's doing fine now, the little slip caused quite the media circus over the accident as news outlets worldwide rushed to the scene to ensure Hill's well-being.
A young reporter from the Daily Examiner considered the scene a highlight in his career.
"I just really couldn't believe how beautiful she still looked even after her fall knocked her out for a moment," said Jeremy Hicktober, a journalist and recent graduate from Columbia. "All of my days in graduate school I obsessed over her charm and public persona and now out in the field as a reporter, I feel like my life is truly complete now that I'm met Hillary."
Other, more seasoned veterans in the news industry were not as impressed by Hill's spill.
"I don't think it was a stomach bug at all and I know she wasn't dehydrated because I was spying on her before it happened and I saw her drinking water through a window - she looked really good when she was doing that though," said Roger Wilton, from the Boston Globe.
Hill's right-hand man and spokesman Scott Stapleton, released a statement on her behalf:
"Hillary is doing fine and is recovering well from her stomach bug and fall. She will be back, on top of the world again tomorrow looking better than ever," Stapleton said.
After a press conference, reporters could hear Stapleton add something under his breath:
"I've never seen a more beautiful woman fall more gracefully. I wish I could have caught her so she would finally leave Bill and marry me."
We out.

For some of these organizations, it's a tough pill to swallow.
It's one of the easiest budgets to cut, but Augusta Arts Council Executive Director Brenda Durant says the city's funding is one-third of the council's operating costs and is vital to festivals like Arts in the Heart.
"We had asked for funding this year for administration of the Arts Council and for the city to support a re-granting program where they would distribute funds through the Arts Council to local arts organizations, and they have put a zero next to each of those," Durant said.
Russell says dramatic cuts are necessary if the city plans to not raise taxes or reach into the city's reserve funds.
"The recommendation this year is to cut the money out totally for those functions," he said. "They are not necessities, although they are wonderful things."
Durant has asked the city for $105,000 for operating expenses and $200,000 to re-grant organizations like the Augusta Ballet.
And now it could be a sprain for the cultural arm of the city.
"People think of the arts as the hair bow on top of the little girls' hair instead of the belt that's holding everything together," Durant said.
While nothing's final, the next few weeks will bring tough decisions.
"You've got to weigh do you lose the Sheriff's Department or do you lose Arts in the Heart? Which choice do you basically make?" Russell said.
"The city will have to decide--all those things worthwhile to us, are they valuable or do we just say go away?" said Durant.
Russell says budget workshops will be held over the next few weeks and that's when the Arts Council will get to pitch how valuable they are to the city.
The first budget workshop will be held next Wednesday at 3 o'clock.
The Transportation Department will make a presentation for commissioners and make a case for why they should be spared from budget cuts.
Transportation is looking at losing a million dollars in the proposed cuts; the sheriff's department a million and a half. The Arts Council funding would be sliced $300,000.
Recreation and Parks stands to lose three quarters of a million dollars…which would mean more performances canceled if Riverwalk Special Events loses funding.

Outcry from privacy advocates prompted Alameda County Board of Supervisors to postpone or possibly scrap plans to purchase a surveillance drone for the Sheriff's Office.
Last minute intervention Tuesday morning by the American Civil Liberties Union prompted supervisors to require explicit authorization to use grant money the Sheriff's Office received to purchase the drone. Now the proposal will have to go to the public protection committee for approval then back to the full board of supervisors. That is likely to happen early next year.
Concern has been mounting among privacy groups for months that Sheriff Greg Ahern was forging ahead without rules for deploying a drone in the skies above Alameda County.
The ACLU and Electronic Frontier Foundation are concerned about the lack of privacy protections. They were dismayed to find that the Sheriff's Office was asking the supervisors on Tuesday to approve a $31,646 grant to help pay for a drone, indicating that the department was far closer to acquisition than they had led the public to believe.
The Sheriff's Office has consistently downplayed concern, insisting that the department has yet to receive authorization from the Federal Aviation Administration and would use a drone for search and rescue missions, such as finding missing children and responding to wildfires.
But a July 20 internal memo from the Sheriff's Office shows the department identified uses other than search and rescue, including barricaded suspects, investigative and tactical surveillance, intelligence gathering, suspicious persons and large crowd control disturbances.
Surveillance and intelligence gathering amount to "spying," ACLU attorney Linda Lye said Tuesday morning shortly before supervisors were to vote on accepting the money during their regular board meeting.
The money was part of a larger $1.2 million grant dispersed through the California Emergency Management Agency.
The item was modified Monday afternoon after supervisors and the sheriff became aware of the controversy building over it. Initially, the wording was changed to allow the sheriff to still accept the $31,646 grant, providing no obstacle to using the money for a drone.
The sheriff is "not taking privacy issues seriously," Lye said.
Undersheriff Richard Lucia told supervisors during the meeting that including the item on the agenda was "an oversight" by staff.
The office will not buy a drone until it has been fully vetted publicly, he said. If supervisors block the acquisition, the $31,646 would go back to Cal EMA or be used for something else if the grant rules allow it, Lucia said, reiterating the office's commitment to a public vetting.
"We stand by our word," he said.
After the meeting, Lucia once again stressed the search and rescue component of the drone. He did not, however, directly answer questions about language in the grant that specifically spells out intelligence and anti-terrorism functions for the unit.
"We're not against drones entirely," said Trevor Timm, of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which obtained the July internal memo from the Sheriff's Office.
Search and rescue and damage assessment are all legitimate uses of a drone, Timm said. But there is the danger of "mission creep," he said. "We want to make sure the public gets a say."
In fact, Tuesday's agenda item provided few details, describing the drone only as weighing less than 4 pounds, equipped with live video downlink and other related support equipment. And the small Quadrotor model that the department wants to purchase was not among three bids released to the ACLU in November through a public records request.
The manufacturer AirCover Integrated Solutions praised the spindly black four-rotor unit on its website as quiet: at 50 feet it cannot be heard, and at 100 feet it is invisible.
About a dozen U.S. law enforcement agencies already have or are using a drone, including the Seattle Police Department. That number is likely to grow considerably because the federal government has given explicit support for the expansion of drone use for law enforcement purposes.
The FAA is responsible for developing safety guidelines but has not kept up with the need for privacy rules. No federal guidelines exist for how data collected by drones can be used. The International Association of Chiefs of Police developed recommendations for the use of drones, but they are not compulsory.
"We should not be rushing headlong into buying a drone without guidelines," Lye said.

VAIL - This Christmas giving season, several local companies have joined forces to raise money for Eagle County's Salvation Army. For the second year in a row, Ski Country radio station and Crazy Mountain Brewery, along with Bighorn Toyota of Glenwood Springs, Christy Sports of Avon and Leadfoot Linda's of Eagle-Vail, have come together to create Ski Country Brew, a special release Extra Pale Ale specifically created for Ski Country by brewer Kevin Selvy of Crazy Mountain Brewery.
"This easy-drinking beer features a light, golden malty backbone with a citrus aroma. This very drinkable pale ale accents the Cascade hops we use," said Selvy.
The beer will debut at a kick-off party at the Crazy Mountain Brewery tasting room on Friday, from 5 to 8 p.m. Tickets to the kick-off party are $15 at the door, which gets you food provided by The Lost Cajun in Edwards, a commemorative pint glass, two pints of Ski Country Brew and a chance to win lots of great door prizes, including Denver Nuggets Basketball tickets and a pair of three-day passes to Vail's Snow Daze festival.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with Crazy Mountain Brewing for such a fun holiday promotion," said Holli Snyder, general manager of Ski Country. "It's an innovative concept, drinking beer for charity, and we hope to continue this tradition for years to come! We know that our listeners are going to drink beer anyway, why not drink a beer that gives back 100 percent of the cost of the beer to our local community? It's truly a beer that is good for the soul."
Thirsty beer lovers will also be able to find this special brew at restaurants across the Ski Country listening area beginning Monday. See the info box to learn which restaurants plan on carrying the beer.
One hundred percent of the proceeds from Ski Country's Brew sold through Crazy Mountain Brewery and all partnering restaurants will go to the local Salvation Army's food pantry, emergency assistance program, emergency shelters and Christmas food basket program.
In 2011 the Ski Country Holiday Brew raised $3,750 for the Salvation Army, and the goal for 2012 is $7,500.
"Last year we used the money to replenish our depleted food supply after our busy holiday season," sadi Tsu Wolin-Brown, the executive director of the Salvation Army. "The need for critical food does not go away after the holidays and we are truly thankful for these donations."
For more information on KSKE's Brew, contact Holli Snyder at 970-949-0140, or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

His family says they were deceived and lied to by a woman they loved.
Today was the second day of testimony in Amy Walden's murder trial.
She's accused of killing her husband, Clint, and hiding his body in their home for three days.
News 12's Kristen Cosby was in the Burke County courtroom Wednesday, where Clint's family testified.
Clint Walden's brother, sister and father all took the stand to talk about their desperate search to find him.
And they say during it all, Amy Walden lied to them.
"She calls you on the telephone, gives you a ray of hope that he's alive, but you know in your heart, he's dead," said Clint's brother Clay Walden. He testified in court about trying to find his brother when Clint went missing for two days.
Family members describe how Clint's wife Amy said she talked to him on the phone...and how Amy visited with her father-in-law, J.C. Walden, just hours before officers found the body.
"She never showed any signs of nervousness. We sit face to face the whole time," J.C. Walden said.
But the family never heard from Clint, so they eventually called sheriff's deputies...who found his body under a blanket in the couple's living room.
They say Amy never showed any emotion.
"I said how in the world could you do this?" J.C. Walden said. "Why, Amy? Why? And she just..." He shrugged.
Clint's sister Penny says she saw evidence Amy was trying to get rid of the body.
She found Clint's truck backed up to their back door.
To make a bridge, there was a trampoline between the open hatch and the door, and there was a dolly nearby.
And Penny has a reason to believe her sister-in-law killed Clint.
She says she talked with Amy about the agony of divorce. Prosecutors say Clint mentioned divorcing Amy just days before he died.
"Amy just said, 'I married Clint.' I got married again. She said 'I wouldn't go through a divorce. I'd kill him first'," Penny said. "I said to Amy, 'Oh no, let's don't do that.' And she didn't say, 'I'm teasing'."
Clint's father, J.C. Walden, also testified that Clint taught Amy how to shoot her handgun.
Police say it's the same gun used to kill Clint.
More testimony is expected Thursday, including some from Amy's daughter Heather.

Spain is a large and diverse country with attractions for visitors that range from vibrant modern cities to the quaint mountain towns known as "white villages" to lively coastal resorts teaming with nightclubs and tourists from all over the world. A cheap Spain hotel deal can save visitors a great deal of money and allow them to stretch their budget.
Madrid and Barcelona are the premier cities in Spain. The Prado in Madrid showcases one of the best collections of art in Europe, and the city is famous for its excellent food, architecture, and top-ranked soccer team. Visitors to Barcelona won't want to miss the buildings designed by the architect Antonin Gaudi including the Sagrada Familia church that has been under construction for decades. Both cities can be made more affordable by seeking out Spain hotel packages.
Northern Spain may surprise visitors with its greenery and damp mild climate. To the east, Basque country is an autonomous region with its own language. In its capital, Bilbao, an important collection of modern art is on display in the Guggenheim Museum, and the building itself was designed by American architect Frank Gehry. Spain hotel deals can be found in this part of the country as well.
The southern part of Spain was once part of the Moorish world, and the Alhambra Palace in Granada is one of the most stunning reminders of that time. Visitors won't want to miss the winding streets of Granada's historic Arab quarter known as the Albaicin. Also worth a visit are the picturesque white villages of Andalucía such as Ronda, Arcos de la Frontera, and Algar. Sun and beaches await visitors in the Canary Islands near the coast of North Africa.
Expedia can assist travelers who want to book rooms at a reasonable price. Hotels in Spain range from top-of-the-line international chains to charming historic properties converted for tourists to budget options. Spain hotels can be found to cater to every taste. To find the top rates, visitors should check prices and make reservations as early as possible. Sometimes cheap hotel deals in Spain are also offered at the last minute, and it's always worthwhile to inquire about a special discount.

Twitter Scrambles Against Dissemination of Foley Video
Twitter is trying to stamp out the grisly images of the death of American journalist James Foley, who was beheaded in a video released by militants from the Islamic State.
"We have been and are actively suspending accounts as we discover them related to this graphic imagery. Thank you," wrote Twitter CEO Dick Costolo in a tweet late Tuesday evening.
We have been and are actively suspending accounts as we discover them related to this graphic imagery. Thank you https://t.co/jaYQBKVbBF
— dick costolo (@dickc) August 20, 2014
Earlier in the day, Twitter announced a new policy where the social media outlet said it would remove images and videos of the deceased at the request of family members.
YouTube had suspended an account that released the video Tuesday afternoon, but it appears the footage has been reposted elsewhere. Images of the video and the video itself quickly circulated Twitter.
A Twitter spokesman did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
While Twitter only removes certain images at the request of family members, some Twitter users have urged others not to share the images under the hashtag #ISISMediaBlackout.
Twitter's swift attempt to stop the graphic images from spreading represents a change for a platform that has had a more lax policy towards sensitive content compared to other social sites.
But even as hashtag #ISISMediaBlackout trended on Twitter, some other users said blocking the images is detrimental as well.
Meanwhile, the U.K.'s Metropolitan Police Service said its Counter Terrorism Command is investigating the contents of the video. In an attempt to stop the spread of the video in the U.K. – the militant on the video spoke with a British accent – the Met released a statement saying that "viewing, downloading or disseminating extremist material within the UK may constitute an offence under Terrorism legislation."

A strange case recently reached its apparent conclusion in the Colorado courts.
L.S. Shoen was the founder of U-Haul and the father of thirteen children. In the 1970s, a rivalry began over U-Haul's management among L.S.'s four eldest sons, including Mark and Sam Shoen. The Shoen family split into factions, with L.S. and Sam in one group and Mark in the other group. The dispute was the subject of multiple media reports, including a 1990 front-page story in the Wall Street Journal.
In 1990, Sam's wife, Eva, was murdered in their home in Telluride, Colorado. The sheriff's department's investigation disclosed the following evidence:
> Eva's body was found at the top of the staircase outside her bedroom;
> A piece of a bloody bed sheet was removed but never found, although a blood-stained mattress remained;
> No blood was found between Eva's bed and where her body was found at the top of the staircase;
> Eva's bedroom was in disarray, suggesting that a struggle had ensued;
> Money and jewelry were in plain view, but nothing was taken from the home except for a cut-out from the bloody bed sheet;
> Eva was killed by a gunshot wound in her back;
> Two needle mark injection sites, believed to have been made shortly before Eva was shot, were found on each side of Eva's chest; and
> Sam was in Arizona when Eva was murdered.
After the murder, U-Haul, which was then under Mark's control, dispatched a team of lawyers and private investigators to purportedly assist with the investigation. The sheriff's department declined offers of assistance, but the U-Haul team began conducting surveillance on Sam and passing unsubstantiated information about Sam to the sheriff's department, such as that Sam had affairs while he was married to Eva and was overheard confessing to the murder.
In 1993, the sheriff's department attempted to get additional leads by featuring the investigation on Unsolved Mysteries. That resulted in a tip leading to Frank Marquis, who eventually confessed to the murder. Marquis claimed that he was visiting Telluride at the time to burglarize drug dealers' houses. Marquis claimed he shot Eva next to her bed and she ran to the top of the stairs. Marquis denied any knowledge of the injection sites on Eva's body and claimed he acted alone. Although Marquis said that he was not bleeding in the Shoens' home, he claimed that he cut out the piece of bloody bed sheet because he thought some of the blood might be his. Marquis did not explain why he did not also take all or part of the bloody mattress underneath the bed sheet.
Sam later appeared on a television documentary called Tragedy in Telluride that was nationally broadcast in 2008. On the show, he said that his brothers, including Mark, were given everything by their father and yet ruthlessly tried to destroy him. Sam said that his brothers were "capable" of being involved in the murder and the cut-out sheet was likely a failed attempt to frame him. Mark then sued Sam in Colorado for defamation.
In November 2012, a Colorado appeals court ruled in Sam's favor. The case turned on whether Sam's statements were a matter of public concern (rather than a private concern) and therefore subject to greater protection under freedom of speech principles. The court found the statements to be a matter of public concern because, among other reasons, they were critical of the sheriff's department's investigation and pertained to wealthy and prominent businessmen who were closely followed in the press. The defamation case is now over, but what exactly happened that night in 1990 remains a mystery.

200 Years After 'Pride and Prejudice,' Five Things Jane Austen Can Teach Us
"Pride and Prejudice" was first published in January 1813, and has since become a celebrated classic for women of all ages. And though a lot can change in 200 years, some things – love, romance, and friendship – have remained very much the same. In fact, many of the plots and themes in Austen's works resemble or have inspired some of our most beloved "chick lit" and "rom-coms," including "Bridget Jones's Diary" and "Clueless." In honor of the 200th anniversary of "Pride and Prejudice" this month, let's take a look at the following five lessons from Austen classics and decide for yourself if they still resonate today:
1. Looks can deceive you.
Before making happy marriages, some of Austen's heroines are briefly attracted to exceptionally handsome men. Marianne Dashwood falls for glamorous John Willoughby. Emma Woodhouse flirts with good-looking Frank Churchill. Elizabeth Bennet develops a crush on George Wickham, who has "all the best parts of beauty." The problem with these guys is not their good looks, but the fact that they use their physical charms to manipulate women. After jilting Marianne, Willoughby coldly ensnares a wealthy bride. Frank employs his flirtation with Emma as a smokescreen to hide his secret engagement, without considering Emma's feelings. Wickham turns out to be a serial seducer of teenager girls. So if you ever meet a man who is drop-dead gorgeous, be on your guard. Power corrupts, and beauty is a source of power. If you're lucky, you'll meet someone who is modest as well as devastatingly handsome. But you'll have to be lucky, because such men are uncommon, both in Austen's novels and in real life.
2. Wait for the one who is right for you.
At 19, Anne Elliot was advised to end her engagement with Captain Wentworth. She took the advice, but she didn't get over her love. Instead, she lived in single misery for eight whole years. Only Wentworth's belated realization that he still loved her prevented Anne from dying unwed. Yes, Anne definitely holds Austen's record for long-term loyalty, but other heroines also remain faithful when hope appears to be gone. After months of silent suffering, Elinor Dashwood bursts into tears of joy when she learns that Edward Ferrars is finally free to marry her. Jane Bennet carries the torch for Bingley long after she concludes that he's left her for good. Fanny Price adores Edmund Bertram even as he makes her the confidant of his passion for another girl. Their true loves aren't necessarily their most glamorous suitors. Anne could have married the heir to a baronetcy, instead of a mere sea captain. But the heart has its reasons, and Austen believes you should be true to your heart. Her faithful heroines earn the happy ending.
3. Remember that women need their girlfriends.
When romances go wrong in Austen's novels, and we've just seen that they often do, the heroines turn to female friends for comfort. Jane's silent pain is relieved by Elizabeth's affection, and when Elizabeth realizes how wrong she's been about Darcy, she wishes Jane was with her to say she hasn't really behaved in a "vain and nonsensical" way. Conversely, there's nothing Austen likes less than a girl who sees other girls only as competitors for male attention. The odious Miss Bingley constantly disparages Elizabeth in hopes of combating Darcy's attraction to her—Elizabeth's eyes, her teeth, her tan, even her taste for reading, attract Miss Bingley's eagle eye and sharp tongue. But Darcy notices Elizabeth's genuine concern when Jane falls ill, and that influences him more than anything Miss Bingley can say. Ironically, then, sincere friendships with women could help you to hook up with the right sort of man.
4. Don't push your friends around.
Yes, friendships are important, but they need to be equal and reciprocal. When clever Emma befriends airheaded Harriet Smith, a very unequal relationship begins. Emma sees Harriet as a sort of toy that she can move about as she wishes: "She would notice her; she would improve her; she would detach her from her bad acquaintance," Emma decides. So Emma interferes with Harriet and the man she loves, in order to marry her to a richer man. This power play has predictably unfortunate results, and we realize that true friends respect their friends' autonomy. Elizabeth certainly doesn't approve of her friend Charlotte's decision to marry the boring and pompous Mr. Collins for purely financial reasons, but she sticks by Charlotte anyway. To rescue Charlotte from her husband's undiluted society, Elizabeth even makes the supreme sacrifice of voluntarily spending weeks in the same house with Mr. Collins.
5. Remember that romance isn't everything.
As we've seen, several Austen heroines go through a period of suffering before marrying the man they love. They prove themselves worthy of a happy marriage by trying to stay busy and cheerful when they think that hope is lost. This isn't always easy. Jane Bennet struggles "to support her spirits," but has "periods of dejection." Anne Elliot learns Italian, does her father's work as a landowner, and takes care of her boisterous nephews. It cheers Anne up when she can find ways of helping others. But, as usual, it's Elizabeth who sets the standard to which Austen's modern readers should aspire. Fearing that his aunt may have persuaded Darcy not to propose to her, Elizabeth thinks, "If he is satisfied with only regretting me, when he might have obtained my affections and hand, I shall soon cease to regret him at all." While waiting to see what Darcy will do, Elizabeth goes about her business and life as usual—and, like any good chick flick, she gets the guy in the end.

Like many other manufacturers of trucks, Volvo designs and builds its trucks out of a common range of components, which are found in many different models. This is a tradition which was started already in the early 1930´s, when the same engines, the same gearboxes, and the same chassis components were found on several different Volvo truck models.
Shared components in unique cabs
Components shared between many Volvo trucks include e.g. the electronic system, engines, gearboxes and chassis components. Unlike some manufacturers, however, Volvo makes separate cabs for different models, to ensure that the volume of the cab and driver ergonomics is optimized.
A truck which exemplifies this principle very well is the VM, which is produced exclusively in Curitiba, Brazil. Brazil is (since 1980) one of Volvo's most important truck markets. Volvo did not, however, offer a medium- to light-heavy-duty truck on the Brazilian market until the autumn of 2003, when the VM was introduced.
Specified for many different tasks
The VM is based on global Volvo components, together with a cab shared with the FL and FE trucks and an engine (produced in Brazil), which is not found in any other Volvo truck. The cab is available in several versions, including short day cab and sleeper cab with a comfortable bunk. The engine is available with different output levels, and different transmissions options.
Thanks to this, the VM can be specified for a wide range of transport tasks, from local or regional distribution to more demanding transport operations, with two or three axles, and with our without a trailer. The VM is marketed only in South America.

Resplendent in gold jewelry and black-brown ensemble, Anita Hill is having far more fun during this year's Sundance Film Festival than she did 22 years ago in front of a Senate Judiciary Committee.
"I can never go back to the person I was at that moment," Hill said during a brief interview inside a lounge on Park City's Main Street. "We grow. We develop. We move on. Hopefully, we evolve into that person we want to be."
Today a professor of law, social policy and women's studies at Brandeis University, Hill speaks tirelessly on behalf of women's equality.
At the same time, she knows her name will forever be tied to those October days in 1991. That's when as a young, soft-spoken law professor she stunned the nation with graphic testimony against then-Supreme Court justice nominee Clarence Thomas, bringing the issue of sexual harassment out of the workplace and into the public arena.
Hill turned down past offers to have her story told on film.
"Anita," which Mock said she appropriately began shooting three years ago on Martin Luther King Day, reminds audiences that, behind every brave face going public, the personal story informing their decision is never far behind.
The film, which received its world premiere Saturday at Park City's Marc theater, walks back into time to tell the story of Hill's rural Oklahoma upbringing. The youngest of 13 children, her parents raised her under the saying familiar to many black children, "You've got to be twice as good to get half as much." The Yale Law School student who graduated with honors in 1980, and was admitted to the District of Columbia Bar that same year, did not disappoint.
"When people ask how I got my courage I say, 'You can start there [with my family], particularly with my mother,' " Hill said.
It also moves forward into Hill's current life and long-term relationship with Chuck Malone, a man who first charmed her with an offer of a glass of wine.
Always at the center, though, is Hill's testimony against then-Supreme Court Justice nominee Clarence Thomas. It defined her, but also limited her.
In one of the film's most striking moments, Hill examines the original blue dress she wore during the hearings. It's a dress she's never worn since, and can never imagine wearing again.
"For one, it doesn't fit," said Hill, laughing. "The other issue is that I was someone before 1991, and I'm someone since then. The dress locks me into a place and moment, and I don't think that's fair either to me, or the issues."
But as sexual harassment cases brought into court by women continue, Hill makes it clear she will be there both as spokeswoman and figurehead. In basement file cabinets, she keeps 25,000 letters that she's received over the years, both from women with accounts of harassment they suffered and fathers upset over what their daughters have had to endure in the workplace. Mock's camera travels with Hill to workshops and conferences where she offers her voice and inspiration.
"I still see people who cry when they see me, or they go back to that place where they're really angry," Hill says in the film.
Outside the film, and sitting beside Mock as both wait for their next media interview, Hill rebuffs anyone who still sees her 1991 testimony through a partisan lens.
"People are no longer willing to chalk it [sexual harassment] up to a difference in politics," she said. "It's not about that. It's about the human experience."

Job Concern for my husband
I am coming to ask for someone to please pray for my husband and I as he is looking for a job. He was working construction until December and then the job was finished. Since then he has applied for multiple jobs between here and Nasheville and has not had any call baca for a job. He is struggling with everything that is going on and is depressed. I am a teacher and have been providing for us since October with help from my in-laws. We just need lots of prayers right now because he is struggling with not being able to provide for us. Please just pray that something or someone will come along and he will be offered something. Thank you all so much. God Bless You.
