I was stopped by an Oregon State Police trooper last week for failing to obey a yellow signal and because I had no current registration sticker on my vehicle. After I showed the officer my new tags and explained that my front plate had been ruined, and that I was waiting to get new ones, he very kindly let me off with a written warning. I was so grateful he didn't write me a ticket, I failed to ask him what it means to have a written warning. He told me there was no fine or fee and that it wouldn't go on my driving record. So what does it do? And where does it go?
— Lynne S., Medford
Wow. It's been a long time since anyone here at the Since You Asked School of Bad Driving skated on a potential ticket. Or two. Even a fix-it ticket. That trooper must have been feeling particularly benevolent that day. Or you were being particularly charming, Lynne. Perhaps a combination of both?
In any case, we are happy to inform you that the information on both your yellow-light misadventure and your unstuck stickers resides only in the database of OSP, according to Sgt. Julie Wilcox.
"It's in our database, where it will stay for quite a while," Wilcox said.
Wilcox assured us that, as the officer explained, this information will not count against you. And it will not be shared with other police agencies, insurance agencies or with the state's traffic courts.
"It's a get-out-of-jail free card, almost," Wilcox said.
She said the agency is more inclined to give oral rather than written warnings, if a warning is warranted. But sometimes a written warning is issued, as it can serve as a reminder to the person that the issue must be addressed, Wilcox said.
Any future failing in this area most likely would result in a ticket, Wilcox said, as your name would pop up in the agency's database with the details attached.
In short, Lynne, if you are pulled over again by an OSP trooper, you had better have fully obeyed the right of way and have a current registration sticker on your shiny new plates. Even benevolence and charm have their limits.
Send questions to "Since You Asked," Mail Tribune Newsroom, P.O. Box 1108, Medford, OR 97501; by fax to 541-776-4376; or by email to firstname.lastname@example.com. We're sorry, but the volume of questions received prevents us from answering all of them.

Post-Game Notebook: Big Win A Part Of Hawks' Learning Process
Even though they hadn't met the San Jose Sharks since January 31, that game's 4-2 victory undoubtedly left an impression on the young Blackhawks team. They parlayed that recently-acquired knowledge into a second victory Wednesday night, defeating the West's second-best team 6-5 in a shootout.
"Those [earlier] games helped in terms of how we play at the end of the game and protect leads," said Andrew Ladd. "Obviously, [Nikolai Khabibulin] bailed us out tonight by making some big saves and Jonny [Toews] and [Patrick Kane] helped us out in the shooutout. We've been learning this whole year about our team, and it's going to be helpful moving forward."
Part of the learning process for the youthful Hawks is understanding how to take back the momentum after a quick goal by an opponent and learning how not to get discouraged when a big lead disappears. At one time, the Blackhawks led the Sharks 4-1 and had the momentum shifting in their favor, but as time wound down in regulation and went into overtime, the team worked hard to preserve the 5-5 tie.
"We had a great start tonight," head coach Joel Quenneville said. "We had a lot of good things happen for us tonight, discounting the late goals against us. We had speed, we had energy and got production early on. When we got that 4-1 lead, it looked like we were on our way."
The Hawks' education continued in overtime, where the team has struggled this season while compiling a 7-11 record heading into tonight's extra period.
"Overtime hasn't been that great for us all year," said Quenneville, "But tonight it was just the opposite. It was a huge win at the end of the day, but we've got to be a little more comfortable with a two-goal lead and five minutes to go."
Perhaps the most important part of the Hawks' learning was the continuing re-education of Khabibulin, who appeared for just the fourth time since returning from an injury made him inactive for almost a month. The netminder made critical saves against a very skilled San Jose team, and as he progresses to his top form, the Hawks' chances in every game will steadily improve.
"Offensively, they've got a lot of weapons," Quenneville said. "I think [Khabibulin] did some good things. We'll continue to get better as he improves. I think we'll be fine."
Ultimately, the Hawks can look back positively at their season series with the Sharks, winning five points out of a possible eight against one of the best teams in the league.
"They've got a lot of things going," said Quenneville. "We've had four thrillers and when you're measured against a top team, it's fun to be a part of."

All incoming students, regardless of need and background, are awarded a fellowship which includes tuition, single-person health fees, and a living stipend ($40,200 for 2016-2017).
Although there is no formal commitment, it is expected that a similar level of financial aid will be awarded for up to five years. All financial aid awards are contingent upon a student's satisfactory academic progress.
Students may request from the Doctoral Programs financial support for research and conference attendance. Students submit research funding requests each spring for the following academic year.
"The generous financial tuition stipend and the research package at HBS demonstrate a true commitment to its doctoral students. Students can get research funding from within the school if they're working with a faculty member—or even if they have their own project and it's compelling enough."
The application for admission is now CLOSED. The deadline to submit a complete application was December 1, 2015. The application for the 2016-17 application year will be available next September (2016).

Back to Consulting Rankings
Which firms fare best on these individual rankings of key employment factors?
When it comes to choosing an employer, there is no question that
prestige is important. However, our survey data indicates time and
again that many other factors come into play when weighing a
choice-and even more that affect employee satisfaction in the
months and years after the decision has been made.
Did you know that for 43% of consulting firm candidates, firm
culture was the most important factor in selecting an employer?
Other top factors include practice strength and work-life balance,
in addition to prestige and compensation.
But choosing an employer is only part of the equation-staying
there over a period of time is something else entirely. And while
elements like firm culture, compensation and work-life balance
remain important as part of that picture, other factors such as
satisfaction and the ability to make career progress also emerge as
critical differentiators of top employers.
In order to properly reflect a company's status as an employer
within the consulting industry, the Vault Consulting 50 is based on
the following weighted formula:
As ever, our survey is only open to consultants who are
currently employed at reputable firms in the industry. When rating
quality of life issues, consultants are only permitted to rate
their own firm. For prestige and practice area rankings, however,
consultants are only allowed to rate competitors, and NOT their own

27 November 2012
Police are warning of a new scam that officers were alerted to
last night, Monday 26 November, after a man telephoned residents
claiming to work for a water company.
Officers were contacted by two separate Lowestoft residents
around 9.30pm – 10.30pm yesterday reporting they had taken a call
from a man who claimed there was lead in their water supply, it was
contaminated and they shouldn't use it.
In the first call the alert lady resident said she hadn't heard
about in the media and the man told her that he didn't want to
alarm anyone. He said someone would be coming round to see her but
in the meantime told her not to drink or wash with it.
The woman said she didn't want anyone to come round and finished
the call.
In the second call the male resident was told about the lead and
then quizzed about his medical history before the man said he would
need medical help and it was on its way.
Both residents were highly sceptical about the claims and
contacted Essex and Suffolk Water who confirmed there was no
problem with the supply.
Police were then alerted.
Both residents also did 1471 to try and get a telephone number
for the caller. Through this a mobile number was obtained and
police have phoned this with the person answering hanging up when
questions were asked. Enquiries are continuing.
Officers are again urging residents to be alert and cautious
when dealing with any unknown callers. Never give out personal
information and if you suspect it may be a hoax hang up and check
with the company or organisation concerned, using a number on a
bill or in the phone book, as these alert residents did.

When your conference is as competitive as the SEC, results are in high demand.
You either produce victories consistently, or you are one of the programs that will be experiencing a coaching change.
There were four SEC programs that experienced such a change this offseason.
Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky and Tennessee will all be starting the 2013 season with a new head coach.
All of these new coaches will be given a certain amount of time to turn their new programs around, and they are expected to show improvement immediately. The truth is, however, that it takes time to start seeing results with a new coaching staff.
And it may take a little longer than the fanbase would like.
However, each of these SEC head coaches are joining a team that has a major advantage entering the 2013 season. Whether it is on the offense, the defensive side of the ball or recruits that are coming in to make an impact, each of these teams has that one thing working in its favor.
With the coaching staff introducing themselves and getting familiar with everybody, here is the biggest advantage for each new head coach in the SEC.

Persephone, Falling
by Rita Dove
Analysis: Speaker
The speaker of a poem (or any work of literature) is always tricky. Obviously, the speaker of the poem is always technically the poet. We mean, they wrote the thing. But this poem gives us some other options, too.
The first stanza is told from an outside observer. However, distant as they may be, they still totally have an opinion on what's going down. The speaker uses exclamations to describe the flower just the way that Persephone saw it and strongly emphasizes her isolation (7-8). In line 8, the speaker pronounces judgment on Persephone, so this is someone who knows her well, either literally or metaphorically. They can get inside her brain a bit, and then they feel confident enough to say tell us why this all went down.
It's the parenthetical statement (9-12) that gets really murky. The speaker is absolutely a mother, or at least a child remembering her mother's words. She demands and commands even to the point of overprotection. We can imagine a lot of eye-rolls going down on the part of the listener.
This could be Demeter, Persephone's mother, but might also be the poet Rita Dove connecting with Persephone's experience by remembering her own childhood. The final two lines sound like that same voice at the end of the first stanza that knows, but is above both of these figures and is able to comment on the whole scene. Lucky her.

Children's birthdays
Celebrating a child's birthday at Pointe-à-Callière: a guaranteed success!
To make your child's birthday a truly special event, the Museum suggests a way to give him—and his or her friends—a unique experience they won't soon forget. They can discover the way of life of a pirate or privateer on a ship from the New France era, or become a archaeologist in a simulated dig site.
For an original party that's sure to be a hit. Kids will love it!
You have the choice between two appealing activities on the themes of history and archaeology:
- Cast off for adventure with Pirates and Privateers?
In this activity, children take part in a tale of adventure that plays out against an impressive backdrop representing a privateer ship. Children have the Pirates or Privateers exhibition room to themselves for the duration of the activity. They truly get to put themselves in a pirate's—or privateer's—shoes, exploring what daily life was like aboard ship, while testing their ability to be a good shipmate. Then, they take part in a scavenger hunt, following clues to find things the pirates or privateers have stolen. Lastly, the children get to make a nautical flag—just like the ones used on a pirate or privateer ship—which they can take home as a souvenir of their expedition.
- Archaeology is Cool!
The Museum offers young people an archaeological activity that takes place in a veritable simulated dig site, located in an all-new space at the Museum: the Archaeo-Adventure Workshop. Children take part in a search for archaeological objects. The little budding archaeologists even get to put on an archaeologist's gloves to examine and handle real artefacts. Once all of the objects have been unearthed, children can let their imaginations run wild by making a clay model of some Amerindian pottery. They can bring their work of art home as evidence of their exciting archaeological dig.

Melvin A. Casberg, M.D., Washington, D. C.This report is concerned primarily with the standardization of surgical treatment of mass casualties in times of national catastrophe and certain organizational measures that are essential in effecting large-scale medical treatment. The responsibilities of our profession during times of disaster are grave, and the problems of organizing and directing the medical effort during such times are complex. To give some insight into the magnitude of this potential challenge to physicians, some of the surgical problems are reviewed.In speaking of mass casualties, one enters a field that is foreign to the experience of American medicine, for our nation has never been confronted with the medical problems incident to the civilian catastrophe of modern total war. Nothing in our history has prepared us for the destructiveness of modern weapons, and even American civilian physicians who served in World War

Stephanie Sprouse, director of donated good retail for Goodwill Industries of the Kanawha Valley, announced Friday students at Criss Elementary School had gathered and donated more than 2,000 pounds of goods to Goodwill as part of an in-school contest.
Teachers sent home Goodwill bags and letters to parents asking for donations and explaining the competition.
The students "were excited about it," Vincent said.
"Our students usually do very well with giving, but they gave a lot," she said. "What we were trying to teach the students was to give back to the community."
Last week officials from Goodwill came to the school to collect the donations and on Friday returned to announce how much was donated by Criss Elementary students, Vincent said.
Stephanie Sprouse, director of donated good retail for Goodwill Industries of the Kanawha Valley, said Criss students gathered and donated 2,061 pounds of goods as part of the drive valued at about $4,700.
"I am so proud of the work you've done here," Sprouse told the students.
As a thank you, Goodwill gave each student at the school a tote bag and donated a basketball to each participating classroom, she said.

When you think about it, the BYOD (bring your own device) trend hasn't so much been welcomed by organizations as much as it has been imposed on them. As employees become attached to their personal mobile devices, they have brought them into the workplace and used them for work-related and personal tasks.
Rather than resist the trend, ZDNet estimates that 61 percent of businesses have sought to accommodate it. Businesses believe BYOD boosts morale while encouraging productivity and creativity. But while the approach may be good for employees, it's often a nightmare for IT departments that have to figure out how to secure and manage an array of devices, some of which may be unfamiliar and untested.
At Lenovo, we think there is a better way – CYOD (choose your own device). This displaces BYOD by placing control back in the hands of the IT organization and restores order to device management. With CYOD, IT organizations have the opportunity to review, test and certify those devices that meet a company's requirements, such as interoperability with business applications. Once a company approves mobile devices and computers for use, employees can have them.
We are confident that CYOD is the way of the future.
As my colleague Chris Frey, Lenovo's vice president of North America commercial channels and SMB, told CRN in November: "As the IT organizations start getting control of their environment again, and I think that is going to happen (in 2014), they may want to tell their employees, 'Don't bring your own device, choose your own device and I can buy it through one route, which is my route through my business partner.'"
"I want the partner and the customer to have the ability to have a commercial device, and a potential consumer device that can be bought through one route, versus telling the customer, 'Buy commercial from me and go to a retail store.'"
In your trusted advisor role, I believe you as our partners stand to benefit from the CYOD approach by counseling clients on which devices conform to corporate standards and support productivity goals. You have a chance here to enlighten clients on how CYOD combines the best of both worlds: It allows employees to use familiar devices while organizations retain control over the devices, thereby protecting themselves from potential management and security issues.
At Lenovo, we have expanded our portfolio in recent years to include tablets and multimode notebooks, which combine tablet and laptop capabilities, giving you an array of choices to help clients make CYOD decisions.
To assist you in these endeavors, we have put together Combat Kits that you can purchase and pass on to clients. The kits contain a variety of Lenovo devices that end users can get their hands on to decide which models best suit their requirements.
What do you think? Are your clients ready to replace BYOD strategies with CYOD?

A report says headaches, nausea and respiratory problems were the most common health ailments noted after an oil spill into a southern Michigan river.
The report released Tuesday says hospitals, doctors and other health care providers reported 145 patients after the July spill of more than 800,000 gallons from an Enbridge Inc. oil pipeline near Marshall.
The pipeline runs from Griffith, Ind., to Sarnia, Ontario.
There were no deaths, and all but one of the patients' medical outcomes were classified as minor, moderate or non-existent.
Door-to-door surveys of communities near Talmadge Creek and the Kalamazoo River found 320 people self-reporting some symptoms.
The contamination affected about 25 miles of the creek and river.
The Michigan Department of Community Health and the Calhoun County Public Health Department released the report.

MIDDLEBORO — Selectmen will decide before the fall town meeting whether to ask voters to allow medical marijuana dispensaries in the town's general use zone, or whether to address the facilities through regulations. The selectmen also act as the Board of Health. Board members voted Monday night to place an article on the Oct. 7 special town meeting warrant that would allow medical marijuana dispensaries in general use zones — essentially along Rte. 28 — by special permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals. But Health Officer Jeanne Spalding said the dispensaries, which voters approved with a statewide ballot initiative last year, are a public health issue, not a zoning issue. Ms. Spalding said the state has issued draft regulations that local boards of health can consider. She suggested the board hold a workshop session and encourage the public to attend and learn more about medical marijuana and the way it is to be dispensed under state law. She said by law, the board could declare a moratorium on issuing local permits for up to a year in order to conduct a study if necessary. Selectman Allin Frawley, acting as chairman Monday night in the absence of Chairman of Selectmen Stephen McKinnon, said he would like to see decisions made soon, since the state expects to issue licenses by the end of the year. He said there are already 19 potential applicants for dispensaries in Plymouth County. Mr. Frawley said a dispensary could be an economic plus for the town as well as being a facility that can help people with cancer and other chronic illnesses. He said he visited a dispensary in Rhode Island, and that he has researched the issue and read the state law. "To say this is a heavily regulated facility would be an understatement," he said. The original town meeting article called for medical marijuana dispensaries to be located only in the adult entertainment zone, a small area in South Middleboro that was set aside for adult entertainment years ago when communities were dealing with adult shops, book stores and other establishments possibly locating in downtown areas. Hal Brown, whose wife Betty died from cancer, spoke against the measure. Mr. Brown said his wife, who was well known in the community as a businesswoman and research librarian, was "wasting away" and plagued by ill effects from cancer treatment when she once tried marijuana. Mr. Brown said the experience gave her "six hours without nausea," a great gift under the circumstances. "If you put (medical marijuana dispensaries) in the middle of nowhere and someday there is an adult facility there, would you want your loved one going to this clinic €¦ and being surrounded by people going to a seedy place €¦ It comes down to empathy. Put yourself in my place."
Mr. Frawley said his research indicated that the crime rate, rather than increasing in the area of a clinic, actually drops, perhaps as the result of security at the facilities. He said he was surprised when he visited a facility in Rhode Island to find that the building looked like any other medical facility and that security was tight. He said from what he has learned, Middleboro might welcome the opportunity to host such a facility.
"We may miss an opportunity for a viable business if we don't properly zone this," Mr. Frawley said.
One resident said given the fact that 62 percent of local voters favored allowing dispensaries to operate, "we should be competing for this business."
After listening to the health officer's argument for health regulations rather than zoning, Mr. Frawley said he is "leaning toward recommending (that dispensaries be allowed in) the GU zone, but we should also consider Board of Health regulations instead."
Selectwoman Leilani Dalpe said she learned from reading the state law that in addition to tight security, there are strict requirements that those who operate the dispensaries must meet, and strict requirements that patients must meet in order to be eligible to purchase marijuana.
Ms. Dalpe said their location would also be subject to state laws that prohibit such facilities near schools and day care centers. She said allowing dispensaries in the general use zone would "keep it away from downtown" where it might be inappropriate.
Town Manager Charles Cristello said without a zoning change dispensaries would be allowed anywhere that retail sales are allowed, and where state law would not prohibit them. He said the "theory behind this (town meeting warrant article) was to designate a specific area."
Selectman John Knowlton said he thought designating the adult entertainment area made sense.
"This is something we want to keep away from children," he said. "We want an area where we can welcome (dispensaries) but ensure the safety of the community."
Mr. Brown, the resident who spoke about his wife's illness, said children with chronic illnesses can be treated with medical marijuana. "So children would be going into this adult zone," he said.
Mr. Knowlton said it was more likely that parents would be picking up the marijuana for their children.

Matt Hirschman Makes First Appearance at Shangri-La II In ROC'n Concrete Rumble on Sun., May 16, But The ROC Series Champion Is No Rookie
The saying "The acorn doesn't fall very far from the tree" definitely applies to Matt Hirschman, the defending champion of the Race of Champions paved track modified tour that arrives at Shangri-La II Motor Speedway on Sunday, May 16, for its premier showing on the concrete half-mile oval.
His father, Tony Hirschman, is a five-time champion of NASCAR's open-wheel division, and one of the talents he passed on to his son was the ability to "read" a new race track. That is, the knack of looking at the track, deciding how it is similar and how it differs from well-known tracks, and setting up the race car to go fast the first time it rolls off the truck.
Many of the rivals Hirschman will face in the 75-lap ROC'n Concrete Rumble, which is also the opening race for the series in 2010, have experience on the unique layout. Some, like track champion John Markovic, are weekly regulars at the Concrete Castle and have hundreds of laps under their belt, even though the track just opened last July. Others, including former series title winner Pete Brittain, have made only scattered appearances, but their crew chiefs have the invaluable setup notes on file. Hirschman's closest encounter has been sitting in the stands at Shangri-La II's Concrete Duals season opener on May 1.
While he may not have had a legal pad in his hand or a laptop computer on his knee, Matt Hirschman was taking notes that unseasonably warm afternoon. He was watching, comparing, and planning.
"No two tracks are alike, but it's about the same size as New Smyrna Speedway in Florida, without as much banking, he said, adding "It's different from all the other half-mile tracks in New York where we run. All of them- Spencer, Lancaster, and Oswego which is a 5/8 mile- are flat tracks."
The track shape is only part of the challenge of Shangri-La II, however. There's the concrete surface, previously only seen at the Sprint Cup Series tracks of Dover and Bristol. "It looks like it's very smooth but they say it has a lot of grip in it," Hirschman related. "When the outside comes in it will be a real nice track to race on. I like the idea we are coming back here one more time," he added, referring to the 100-lap RoC Championship Series race scheduled at Shangri-La II on August 1.
Matt Hirschman would have liked to have seen the Concrete Castle from the best seat in the house at the season opener- behind the wheel of his No. 60 Modified- but as a single car operation facing three straight weeks of grueling RoC competition in May, he chose to keep it in his Northampton, Pa. garage. Chances are when the ROC'n Concrete Rumble arrives on May 16, no one will be able to tell the difference.
The ROC'n Concrete Rumble is a one-day event with races for the ASA Late Models, Sportsman Modifieds, and Street Stocks in addition to the Race of Champions Modifieds and the first appearance of the season by the INEX Legends. Pit gates open at 8:30 a.m. and grandstands at 10:30 a.m., with practice at 11:00 a.m. Racing starts at 1:15 p.m. and a special pit party where fans can meet the Race of Champions drivers and the rest of the Shangri-La II racers will be part of the day. There will be no racing on Saturday, May 15, but an open practice day is planned.
Shangri-La II Motor Speedway is located on top of the ridge off Route 17C, one mile east of Tioga Center. It is easily accessed from Route 17, the Southern Tier Expressway, by taking Route 17C East from Exit 62 (Nichols) or Route 17C West from Exit 64 (Owego/Ithaca).

Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz To Begin Safety Recalls
German auto giant Volkswagen AG is recalling certain Beetle cars from the 2012 and 2013 model years to fix a potential problem with their front-passenger airbags.
In a document filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the company said that if the right-front passenger seat gets wet, it could affect a part called the occupant control module, keeping it from detecting a child restraint installed in the seat. If this happens, the airbag will not turn off as it is designed to do. As a result, an airbag could deploy in a crash and injure a child in the front seat.
Safety experts typically advise against allowing small, young children to ride in the front seat, but car manufacturers have to account for the possibility that children may end up in the front passenger seat from time to time.
The recall includes 2,471 vasrs built from February through August of 2012 and equipped with leather sport seats.
Under the recall Volkswagen dealers will replace the control modules free of charge. Owners may contact Volkswagen at 800-822-8987.
Mercedes-Benz said it is recalling 23 CLS550 and CLS550 4Matic cars from the 2012 model year because the bolts used to fasten a part of the hood-latching system called the secondary latch striker may not be tight enough. Mercedes built the affected vehicles from Dec. 1 through Dec. 13, 2011.
On these cars, the bolts could loosen, and if two of the four bolts that secure the striker become loose, the secondary hood latch wouldn't work properly. This problem, combined with improper closing of the hood or a failure of the main hood lock, could result in the hood opening while the car is underway.
Under the recall, Mercedes-Benz dealers will check the latches and re-tighten the bolts as needed. The recall is expected to begin next month. Owners may contact Mercedes-Benz at 800-367-6372.

The Sikeston Public Library's Phantom Ball erases all these hassles by encouraging people to do something relaxing and enjoyable: stay at home and read.
"We aren't asking people to show up at a set time for a one-time event," said Sue Tangemann, director of the Sikeston Public Library. "We are encouraging people to spend time at home reading -- whether it's reading to one's children, reading as a family or enjoying a current bestseller -- and send a donation to the library in lieu of attending an event."
Invitations to this "non-event" of the season were mailed in mid-April. The Phantom Ball extends through the entire month of May.
This is the first Phantom Ball for the library in over a decade. The Friends of the Library organization sponsored a similar event in the mid-1990s.
Proceeds from the Phantom Ball will be used to assist in the purchase of new books and materials for the library's collection.
Expansion of the library's collection, especially in the area of non-fiction, has become more of a challenge as new demands have arisen.
"With the establishment of two higher education centers in Sikeston, many of the students at those centers turn to us to be their 'college library,'" Tangemann said. "As a result, we are striving to provide a wider variety of non-fiction material to support college classes."
In addition to providing materials in printed form, the library is looking to maintain and expand its selection of electronic databases which allow students to research hundreds of professional journals through the Internet.
Even before students get to the university level, they often seek the library's help for high school classwork. Research projects for a variety of classes send students to the library for current, comprehensive information on a wide range of topics.
"We have to be ready with information for these students," Tangemann said. "We can't know ahead of time what their needs will be, so we try to have a wide variety of materials to supplement what is available at the school libraries and to support these students' research needs."
Science-related materials are in demand year-round but never so much as during high school science fair season when middle school, junior high school and high school students all turn to the library for help in researching their projects.
In addition to new science fair how-to books, a new science and technology encyclopedia set was ordered to assist these students as they create future science fair projects at the local, regional and state level.
Elementary and middle school students use the library frequently for participation in the Reading Counts program. The library keeps a list of books for each school building in Sikeston so students can refer to the list as they select books knowing the books they check out at the public library have the corresponding test available when they return to school.
"Keeping elementary students reading year-round is important to maintaining and building reading skills," Tangemann said. "Students are more likely to check out books at the public library if they know they can take a Reading Counts test at school and build points toward school competitions."
Keeping up with these increased demands while still providing leisure reading for adults strains the library's book budget every year.
"Book prices, like everything else, increase all the time," Tangemann said. "We try to maximize our book budget by shopping around for the best prices but many materials are not available at reduced price. Often if we see a book or series of books that we know will have value for our patrons, we will purchase it at full price. Eventually it does place a strain on our book budget."
Anyone who did not receive an invitation to the Phantom Ball but would still like to make a contribution is encouraged to mail or bring in a donation during the month of May.

Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin skates to the dressing room during the third period of an NHL hockey game against the Florida Panthers in Pittsburgh on Friday, Feb. 22, 2013.THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP-Gene J. Puskar
2013-03-04 12:46:00
PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Pittsburgh Penguins centre Evgeni Malkin will return to the lineup Monday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The league's reigning MVP hasn't played since his concussion after slamming into the end boards in a win over Florida on Feb. 22.
Coach Dan Bylsma says Malkin has passed all the mandatory NHL protocols following a head injury. Malkin says he has not experienced headaches, neck soreness or other symptoms. Malkin adds he did have short-term memory loss the day he was hurt.
Malkin has four goals and 17 assists this season. The Penguins went 2-2 in Malkin's absence. The 26-year-old is to play on the second line with Beau Bennett and James Neal against the Lightning.

Ambition Snowskates
Snowskating was created in 1998, but struggled for years due to plastic board functionality and low quality media content. In 2008, it was still young, and fighting for legitimacy. Ambition Snowskates was a new company from Sherbrooke, Quebec, and wanted to create a full-length video showcasing the possibilities of their new wooden boards. The owner, Alex Blais, saw Press Rewind and hired me to film and edit their first video, True Color. The end product presented snowskating in a cleaner, more industry-aware way than ever before. It was the first snowskate video to gain internet recognition and allowed Ambition to set a tone for both the brand and the sport. Following True Color, we made another two full-length videos: Snosk8_aliens, and Skrill Clinton. For each video, I did creative direction, filming, editing, DVD design, duplication, and organizing premiere events. The final project I did was a three year highlight promo called Jam Pack. These projects require filming every weekend throughout the winter, so in 2011 I handed the responsibility off to Alex in order to focus on my own growing business. Ambition Snowskates continues to be the premier company in the snowskate industry. A link to the full version is at the end of each teaser.
Press Rewind
Vermont Snowboarding
In 02-03, I made my first annual snowboard video with friends at Bolton Valley. In 06-07, during my freshman year at Champlain College, I wanted to make something more official than years past. That winter, I coordinated with local riders, shooting for 70 days across the state, all while enrolled in classes. That summer, I edited the video, designed DVD's, and got them duplicated. I organized a premiere event in October with school back in session, and we overloaded a 300 seat theater at UVM. The local companies that sponsored the video gave us free products to give away at the end of the movie. Although I made it for fun, this project became a seed for commissioned work in the following years. A link to the full version is at the end of the introduction.

Donors are critical to the success of the Mothers' Milk Bank. Without donors to provide a safe and continuous supply of milk, infants and children who need processed human milk would be deprived of access to this valuable resource.
The staff of the Mothers' Milk Bank will contact her when her first shipment is approved. If the donor can deliver the frozen milk to our facility during business hours, we greatly appreciate the effort.
A physician's prescription can be mailed or faxed to the Mothers' Milk Bank at (408) 297-9208. Information such as name, phone number and address must accompany the prescription. Once we receive the prescription, it takes two working days for shipping and handling.
All the donor human milk supplied to you has been pasteurized or heat treated and then frozen. Place all the donor human milk in the freezer for further storage. The bottles should be placed in the rear of the freezer, away from the freezer door. The freezer door is not an appropriate place for storage since the temperature changes when the door is opened. On each bottle is an expiration date, which is usually six months from the time the donor human milk has been treated.

Tallahassee - May 8, 2012 -- 11:42pm
Florida produces more than half of the nation's citrus and much of its strawberries and tomatoes. But locally, we don't seem to be enjoying all this produce. A new local food study ranks Florida in the bottom five in the entire nation when it comes to its commitment to raising and eating locally grown food.
Lindsay Tuttle is a loyal customer of Bread and Roses, one of the few co-ops in Tallahassee.
It's been around for three years, providing shoppers with as many local products as it can, which can be a challenge.
"About 80% to 90% of our food does come from a national distributor," said Adam Reid, one of the eight owners of Bread and Roses.
Reid says they have a special committee devoted to just seeking out local products to sell. They sell local honey, candles and local soaps to name a new. They try to reach out to anyone producing item within a 200 miles radius.
They do what they can, but they're fighting numbers from a national local food study. The study shows Florida is at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to producing and eating locally grown food, ranking in the bottom five. Vermont ranks number one.
That study shows Vermont has a population of 622,000 people. The state has 99 farmers markets. This compares to Florida's population of 18.5 million and 146 farmers markets. I
No matter what the numbers, people at Bread and Roses say they'll continue to do what they can to encourage local shopping.
"You're helping support a community effort that is sustainable and healthy, and it connects people to people," says Olivia Williams, a local food shopper.
Iowa, Montana, Maine and Hawaii join Vermont in the top five states in the U.S. in raising and eating locally grown food. While Louisiana, Nevada, New Jersey and Arizona join Florida at the bottom.
Another option to get locally grown food is to go to localfoodmarketplace.com. That site gives you access to Red Hills On-line Farming. You can pick what you want and arrange to pick up your items at Bread and Roses.
Another food co op in Tallahassee is New Leaf Market.

SEC's White Recused on J.P. Morgan Whale Vote
Only three of the five commissioners who run the Securities and Exchange Commission were able to take part in the agency's vote on its landmark enforcement action against J.P. Morgan Chase & Co over the firm's 'London Whale" trading blunders, according to a person close to the agency. They voted in favor 2 to 1.
SEC Republican commissioner Daniel Gallagher and Chairman Mary Jo White both recused themselves from the vote because of potential conflicts of interest arising from their previous employment, the person said.
Of the remaining three commissioners, the settlement, which included a $200 million fine, was approved in a 2 to 1 vote, according to a person familiar with the vote.
Democratic commissioners Luis Aguilar and Kara Stein approved the settlement,and Michael Piwowar, a newly appointed Republican commissioner, voted against it, the person says.
It wasn't immediately clear why Mr. Piwowar chose to oppose the settlement. An SEC spokesman declined to comment. Mr. Piwowar didn't respond to requests for comment.
Before joining the SEC, Mr. Gallagher was a partner at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, a law firm representing J.P.Morgan in this case.
Ms. White – and the SEC co-chief of enforcement Andrew Ceresney – both recused themselves from the Whale case because J.P.Morgan is a client of their previous law-firm employer, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, according to people familiar with the agency.

What's Hurting Profits Is Helping Stocks
The markets have stabilized, with commodities like oil and gold have stopped falling, and the major U.S. indexes tested and held at key technical markers. Given the shoddy state of global economic affairs, the pressure isn't likely to let up soon, and as much as that's hurting U.S. corporate profits, it is ironically helping U.S. corporate equities.
Stocks aren't getting any help this earnings season. IBM's notable earnings miss last night was one of the highest profile misses. It has the stock down sharply and is weighing on the 30-member DJIA. But IBM tepid report — only "tepid" because it did, after all, post a profit — isn't an outlier.
Earnings season isn't looking very bright overall. Investors often lose track of the big picture during these two heaviest weeks of earnings season (this week and next), when the Tape is literally flooded with earnings reports. But take a step back and it's clear that profit growth is meager, and in fact, it has been for several quarters. When that starts to factor into traders' and investors' calculations is something worth pondering.
The numbers get compiled differently by different firms, but through yesterday no firm was reporting good first-quarter numbers. FactSet now sees earnings growth coming in at just 0.3%. S&P Capital IQ has it at 1.8%. Thomson Reuters is only a smidgen higher at 1.9%. Those estimates combine actual results as available, "blended" with estimates for the companies that have yet to report. Those are not inspiring numbers.
McDonald's is a good example. The big fast-food chain's earnings inched ahead only 0.3% from a year ago, while sales were up only 0.9%, and so-called same-store sales (sales at store open for more than a year) were down. Both J.P. Morgan and Wells Fargo reported lower revenue.
According to FactSet, sales for the S&P 500 companies are seen contracting a bit, 0.1%.
Moreover, if you do a rough adjustment for inflation — about 2% — then corporate profit growth is actually a bit negative. The companies in the S&P 500, which get roughly half of their profits from overseas, are clearly taking a hit as the global picture dims. What's really saving the market, though, is this notion that U.S. equities are a relative safe haven in a world of risky bets.
"U.S. equities have fared much better than most other 'risky' assets so far in 2013, suggesting that they could have further to fall," Capital Economics' John Higgins wrote. "But that outperformance may be a fair reflection of the greater vulnerability of some other asset classes – such as industrial commodities – to economic weakness in China and other parts of the world."The S&P 500 bounced off the 50-day moving average that it tested yesterday. While it slipped under it, and closed a hair underneath it in fact, it did not decisively pierce it, giving the bulls a reason to pounce."

Following a four-month gap spent touring and recording, The Beatles returned to the BBC on this day to record a session for the music radio programme Top Gear.
The session took place at London's Playhouse Theatre from 7.30-11.30pm. The Beatles performed six songs: I'm A Loser, Honey Don't, She's A Woman, Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby, I'll Follow The Sun and I Feel Fine. They also gave an interview to host Brian Matthew.
The show was first broadcast on 26 November 1964 on the BBC Light Programme service, from 10pm-midnight.
Five of the six tracks were later issued by Apple Corps. I'm A Loser, She's A Woman, Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby and I Feel Fine were all included on 1994's Live At The BBC, while I'll Follow The Sun was released as part of the same year's Baby It's You EP.
This session's version of I'll Follow The Sun was the third known recording of the song, in addition to the Beatles For Sale studio version and an early attempt believed to date from 1960.

Woman stabbed in carjacking attempt
Victim refused to give man her car keys
PARADISE HILLS A woman was stabbed in the neck after refusing to give her car keys to a man before dawn Saturday morning, San Diego police said.
The 40-year-old woman had just parked her car on Paradise Valley Road south of Woodman Street about 5:30 a.m. and was walking toward her workplace when she was approached by a man wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, said San Diego police Officer Frank Cali.
The man demanded her car keys, Cali said. When the woman refused to give them up, the man stabbed her in the neck with a sharp object taped to a glove he was wearing, he said.
The man ran away, heading west on Paradise Valley Road, Cali said.
The woman was taken to a hospital with non life-threatening injuries, he said.
Police searched the area and found the suspect about an hour later on the corner of Paradise Valley Road and Potomac Street, Cali said. He was identified as 45-year-old Jesse Gutierrez.
Gutierrez was arrested and has been positively identified by a witness to the stabbing, Cali said.

Governance Info
Our Unitarian Universalist congregation is a self-governing entity. The congregation controls its own finances and property, and selects its leadership and form of governance. Our minister is called to partner with us by a vote of the congregation.
Semi-annual meetings are held in the fall and spring, at which time voting members of the congregation gather to elect Board and Program Council members, to hear reports of committees and teams, approve the budget and act on any special issues. Additional meetings may be held at the recommendation of the Board to address concerns as they arise. In short, the leadership of the congregation originates from the members themselves, and is carried out in collaboration with our professional staff and committed lay leadership. In order to facilitate informed and skilled leadership within our congregation, leadership development opportunities are offered regularly during the year.
Governance Structure
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees consists of the President, President-Elect, Past-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and three Trustees.
The work of the Board is to set policy and to support the work of the staff and committees of the Fellowship. They have fiduciary responsibility for the congregation. Part of their job is to ensure the congregation is living out its mission. They listen to the congregation, understand how our Fellowship is being called to act in the world, and then provide leadership to get us there. The Board also creates an operating budget for presentation at our Annual Meeting each spring, which the members approve. All Board members attend a daylong retreat at the start of the year to set the year's goals and then meet once a month. Typically each member is part of a Board subcommittee with responsibility for one of the goals.
The current Board consists of:
President: Amanda Richards
President-Elect: Betsy Allen
Past President: Emily Reddy
Treasurer: Peter Jurs
Secretary: Carol Pollard
Trustees: Janet Irons, Bob Minard, Stephanie Szakal
Ex-Officio: Minister and Director of Lifespan Religious Education
Program Council
The Program Council is made up of representatives from each of the teams or committees. They meet on the third Tuesday of the month to discuss and plan program priorities for the congregation, and for leadership development training. The Program Council helps coordinate the day-to-day programs, including the scheduling of events and facilitating collaboration among the various teams and committees. They also work with the Board of Trustees to implement the goals of the congregation.
The current leader of the Program Council is Betsy Allen
Members of the Program Council are:
Communications: Libby Gage
Community Life: Elaine Jurs
Religious Education: Joy Drohan
Service & Music: Laura Kemper

To the Editor:
Last Friday night we had a benefit for the DeBoer family.
Longtime members of the Northern Putnam County community, the DeBoers recently lost their wife and mother, Janice DeBoer, to cancer.
We would just like to thank so many people and businesses in the Putnam, Montgomery and Hendricks county areas for their contributions and support. There are too many to list individually, though we wish we could. Please just know that all of your contributions to the benefit (from food, to money, to prizes) is greatly appreciated.

Forget Kangaroos and Wallabies, Here's a Quokka!
In response to an earlier post today discussing the definition of "kangaroo court," an alert reader with the stately moniker "Publius" remarked: "Not for nothing, but that's a picture of a wallaby, not a kangaroo. Kangaroos have short, stubby forepaws, whereas wallabies have long arms that they use to hold food while they eat."
It being a Friday before a long holiday, we decided that our knowledge of all things marsupial was indeed a bit lacking. We also decided that it might be good to learn the difference between the two animals (and send you, dear Law Blog reader, off to your New Year's Eve cocktail party armed with one more thing to chat about).
Turns out, Publius was right. Well, sort of. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the word "kangaroo" can accurately be used in two ways. On the one hand,
The term kangaroo, most specifically used, refers to the eastern gray kangaroo, the western gray kangaroo, and the red kangaroo, as well as to the antilopine kangaroo and two species of wallaroo.
On the other,
Less specifically, kangaroo refers to all 13 species in the genus Macropus, some of which are called wallabies. In its broadest usage, kangaroo refers to any member of the family Macropodidae, which comprises about 54 species, including tree kangaroos and the quokka . . . .
We were hoping that side-by-side pictures would help clear up the confusion, but, alas, they wouldn't. Many of the animals labeled "kangaroo" in Google Images searches look identical to those labeled "wallaby." That is, to our North American, city-slicker eyes, they both resemble big and cute things with short-ish arms and pouches for their even cuter progeny.
But we don't want to disappoint on the cocktail chat info. So we thought instead we'd give you a picture of a quokka. There he is. (Woe to the reader who tells us that's really an Australian Prairie Rat or some such creature.)

Model# ML575
Acer Mantara Fairway Woods - Clubhead
Starting at: $3.99The Acer XP Mantara Fairway's sleek geometry maximizes control to produce both long and straight shots from anywhere on the face. Unique sole configuration assists this wide profile design to glide easily through any rough and even tight fairways. The hosel has been repositioned closer to the face than a normal fairway wood to be more in line with the leading edge of the face for a more square alignment to the ball at address. Stainless steel construction. Learn More
Model# BUNML145-10-A
10 Piece Miscellaneous LH Drivers and Fairway Woods Grab Bag$10.00A great way to save money and get golfers started into the game!

Model# M1255A
Acer XDS React Fairway Wood - Clubhead
Starting at: $9.95The shallow faced design has a railed sole to help minimize the sole's contact with the ground in order to prevent the club from digging in and reducing speed, distance and feel upon impact. Its deep back weighting helps lower the center of gravity for better launch and spin characteristics. Its face variable thickness is created for improved feel and sound at impact as a slightly more active face for increased performance over a traditional all-stainless steel fairway wood. Learn More
Model# M1080
Acer XK Fairway Woods - Clubhead
Starting at: $7.99Finally, an innovative stainless steel fairway series that allows total game management by offering lofts to suit a player's individual needs! There are three important technological features that make these higher performance clubs. First, we incorporated our variable face thickness to reduce the perimeter area of the impact area so the entire club face could be more active. This acts to increase the area of forgiveness over a larger portion of the face. Secondly, the crowns were constructed with exclusive VCT (variable crown technology) and measure as little as 0.5mm thick. All the unwanted weight normally reserved for the crown was repositioned deep within the head. Lastly, the wide profile increases the Moment of Inertia. All these features provide for a high launching ball flight with incredible accuracy. Versatility is another word to describe the Acer XK fairways. Multiple lofts are offered including those not commonly found from a strong 3-wood for players who have no problem getting the ball airborne to a high-lofted 9-wood. One addition is a 4-wood for those players wanting just one fairway wood in their bag. This allows you to add an extra wedge or hybrid to your set and stay within the 14 club minimum. Also, our 4-wood is an outstanding solo fairway wood for ladies or seniors looking for the perfect partner to a high-lofted driver. Learn More

'Monsters' Director Gareth Edwards Teams with Russian Auteur Timur Bekmambetov for Sci-Fi Follow-Up
On October 29, Gareth Edwards' feature debut "Monsters" arrives in theaters, following up a successful run on iTunes, VOD, Amazon, Xbox Marketplace, and the Playstation Network. Screenings of the film at South by Southwest and other festivals have already earned it a passionate following, both among critics and industry insiders; in fact, it was "Monsters" that prompted budding Russian auteur Timur Bekmambetov ("Night Watch," "Wanted") to produce his follow-up, a yet-unnamed science fiction film previously described as "an epic human story, set in a futuristic world without humanity."
During a recent interview, Edwards offered a few insights how his own low-budget, less-in-more style might mesh with Bekmambetov's decidedly more spectacular approach to genre material. "The reason for the Timur connection is not because of the films that Timur has made," Edwards explained via phone last week. "I can't speak for him. It's because of the freedom that he would give me, in that he would oversee and be like a godfather figure in that he basically, in a sense, offered protection from the studio, so I'd be allowed to make the kind of film I want to make."
"Monsters" takes place in an alternate present, and follows a photojournalist who reluctantly agrees to shepherd his boss' daughter through an infected zone that's south of the U.S. border. Edwards said that their partnership began after Bekmambetov saw "Monsters," and the two of them decided to coordinate their efforts to present a completed vision to prospective distributors, rather than pitching something for them to approve. "[Timur] just absolutely really responded to 'Monsters,' and basically he was just kind enough to let me make the kind of film I want to make next."
"Basically, the easiest way to get the film that you want to make off the ground is to seek outside financing and not make a deal with the studio until you've got the project ready to go," he said. "Then, you offer it like, 'this is what we're doing. Do you want a piece of it?' As opposed to 'can you help us decide what we're doing?' You then have much more control, and you get to make the film you want to make, and that's the approach we're going to take."
Edwards indicated that he was excited because he feels like he's not betraying the creativity he displays in "Monster" with this project, just to make a bigger-budget, spectacle-heavy studio film. "I certainly would prefer not to make a second film than one that bows out," he insisted. "So I'm going to put every bit of effort into not doing the sort of film that I think would be a laugh and trying to do the film that I really would want to see myself. But hopefully we'll have more resources and I'll definitely have more respect about it, but hopefully it will just keep be the reasons that I like about this film and hopefully [use them again] on the next one."
At the same time, Edwards said he doesn't want to be tied to one particular filmmaking style. "Hopefully for every film, you just basically imagine what's best for that film and go about getting it the way that's going to make the best movie," he said. "But I would be a bit embarrassed if it was really obviously, 'oh, that must be Gareth, because it's just like 'Monsters'.' I think that would be a bit depressing, but stylistically, I just think that I'm very pleased with the style of 'Monsters,' and I think it's appropriate for the film that it is, but it's not appropriate for every film."
Ultimately, Edwards said he hopes to merge not only his style with Bekmabetov's, but to combine the independent spirit and unfettered creativity of his independent debut with the resources of more conventional studio fare. "The real trick is how to mix the advantages we got from the low-budget aspect and the freedom we got from having such a low budget with the advantages of having a higher budget, and not have the negatives of those but just the positives," Edwards observed. "I think that's going to be the real trick, is not to let that money make a worse film – but ironically, I think it can sometimes."
