Two collections that were part of the Texas Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS) Brown-Heatly Library were relocated to the Texas Department of State Health Services Audiovisual Library in October 2004. At that time, an inter-agency contract for library services was established.
The Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) collection includes videos, books, assessment instruments, audio resources, and journals concerning children who have disabilities or developmental delays. Some of the topics include: child development, intervention strategies, autism, Down syndrome, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, infant mental health, etc. For more information about the ECI Library collection, see http://www.dars.state.tx.us/ecis/resources/library.shtml.
The Rehabilitation Services collection includes videos, books, and journals on all aspects of rehabilitation and disabilities. Examples of topics include: disability awareness and rights, assistive technology, ADD and ADHD, brain injury, deafness, blindness, ergonomics, returning to work, sign language, etc. See also the National Clearinghouse of Rehabilitation Training Materials located at Utah State University.
These materials are available on a free loan basis to residents of the state of Texas for up to 10 business days. Mailing time is automatically added to the two-week loan period.
In addition to collection resources, Texas Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS) employees also have access to special library services to support their work and career needs, including:

Big trade shows like Comdex are fine for reaching hordes of might-be customers. But some business-to-business marketers find private shows better for impressing existing clients.
Once a year Synetics, a $35-million systems integrator, throws its own "tech fair" in the lobby of its Wakefield, Mass., headquarters. Technology originally developed for one customer is displayed for all to view. Some 500 invitations go out to Synetics's advisers and VIP clients (and to employees' families). "My banker always comes," notes CEO Bahar Uttam, "as well as 50 to 60 customers."
This year 21 booths, manned by Synetics's engineers, lined the atrium lobby. One showcased a radio tagging device, used by the Federal Aviation Administration for tracking vehicles, that has warehouse applications.
"In some ways it's better than Comdex, where I have only one booth," says Uttam, who isn't vying for foot traffic. Though customers have come from as far as San Diego, more often the show is a local affair.
Last year Synetics used the event as a springboard to triple business with neighbor Lotus Development. The 1994 fair rekindled the interest of state-government customer Arnie Canner, an information-systems director. "It's a great way for a company to show its product line. I stopped at one booth on document imaging, and they explained it clearly. Now I'm even more interested."
The tech fair complements the few shows Synetics does attend, but it costs less than 1% of the marketing budget. What's more, the fair encourages Synetics engineers to think real-world. The tracking device nabbed "Most Marketable" at the awards banquet capping this year's event.* * *
Show Time
Private shows are on the rise, according to anecdotal evidence gathered by Trade Show Bureau, a Denver group that estimates that there are now some 1,200 to 3,000 such meetings annually. Other trends it tracks:
Space costs. After runaway inflation in the 1970s and 1980s, the cost of trade-show exhibit space is increasing just 5% a year -- the 1994 average is $10 to $14 per square foot.
Emerging markets. On the increase are shows for minority groups, health-care providers, leisure groups, and the small-office/home-office market. A bureau study found that 44% of companies attending business-to-business shows had fewer than 50 employees. "The Power of Trade Shows," a summary of the 1992 report, is free; call 303-860-7626 to ask for a copy.* * *

Maybe it's just a bloke thing, but whenever I'm out testing a new camera I'm always acutely aware that other camera users, or at least the male ones, are sizing up the gear that I'm using to determine our relative positions on the social ladder of camera status. It's particularly noticeable with DSLR users. If I'm out testing a compact camera or even a super-zoom, DSLR owners tend to give me mildly patronising looks, as though to say "You're using a tripod with that little thing? How cute."
Similarly if I'm using some new entry-level digital SLR I tend to notice sidelong glances of disparaging smugness from owners of more expensive mid-range models. Usually I pay no attention to such things; we are, after all, professionals. However today I will admit to a moment of sweet, sweet revenge against this small but personal annoyance.
I was in Sidmouth shooting my usual detail test shots of the seafront with a couple of new DSLRs. The viewpoint where I stand to take that particular shot is popular with tourists at this time of year, and as usual there were a couple of people there snapping the same view. One guy had an older Olympus super-zoom, but the other was using a Canon EOS 40D and the two of them had clearly already established their relative social positions.
The first camera I was testing was an entry-level Sony which I'll be reviewing next week, and I immediately noticed a slightly envious glance from super-zoom user and the usual annoyingly smug look from the Canon owner. I let him enjoy his illusion of superiority while I finished taking shots with the Sony. Then I put it back in my bag and pulled out the Nikon D3x.
I swear I heard a small, strangled yelp from the 40D owner as his previous status was reversed in an instant, because he knew, and he knew that I knew, that in the world of DSLR cameras the D3x is Top Dog, the alpha male of the social order, and I couldn't have injured his pride any more painfully if I'd peed in his camera bag. The D3x is simply the biggest, fastest and most expensive DSLR camera on the market, and even owners of the Canon EOS 1DS MkIII will nod their heads in respect. Although there's always the Hasselblad H3DII-50, but nobody talks to those guys.
Of course that's not the reason why someone would buy a Nikon D3x. People who buy cameras for status or because they think that owning a more expensive camera will magically make them a better photographer will usually go for the Canon EOS 5D MkII, which is still expensive but less than half the price of the D3x.
No, the only reason someone would spend £4,800 on a serious professional camera is because they are a serious professional photographer, and they need a camera that can be relied upon to take top quality pictures every time, all the time, in any situation from the backstreets of Basra to the rainforests of the Amazon. That's the job that the D3x was designed to do, and doing anything less with it would be a waste.

Please inform the owner that there is a wasps nest near the kitchen/front bedroom and wasps are getting into the bedroom and kitchen. We had to move out of that room for the last night as my niece and her young baby were both stung!!
Thanks for your review. So sorry about the wasps, I hope your niece and baby weren't in too much pain. The wasp nest has now been removed. Thanks again for letting me know.
We had a lovely stay in this beautiful cottage. It is very well maintained and has everything you could possibly need and more! The garden is fantastic and perfect to relax in on sunny summer evenings. The cottage itself is immaculate and it is located within a short drive of many villages and places to visit.
I am glad we ignored a previous negative comment, because we loved our stay at Woodland Cottage, which is absolutely charming. The weather was cold when we were there but we found the heating perfectly adequate, but were also able to enjoy a real fire in the evening which made the cottage very cosy and authentic.

Today, 1/31/2012, I did get a call from Lisa Johnson from Gold's corporate this morning. I learned that Gold's will not tell me what the resolution is to the KNOWN locker issue and will require a subpoena to share the video footage (which still has not been reviewed despite me giving them a description) with the police and they will NOT be notifying their law abiding Members of any crimes that occur on their premises (inside or out). I will only be told that the situation is resolved but will not be told what the resolution is. Not a great answer. It does not inspire confidence in them. What it does inspire me to do is continue to push for resolution and to look for another gym. It also inspires me to inform people of the risks of using their facilities and the poor treatment you'll receive if you are the victime of a crime. Apparently, they are more concerned with their criminal members than their loyal, law abiding members.

Eugène-Ferdinand Buttura
Eugène-Ferdinand Buttura, (1812– 1852) was a French historical landscape painter.
The son of the poet Antonio Buttura, he was born in Paris in 1812. He began his studies in the atelier of Bertin, from which he went to that of Paul Delaroche. He won the Prix de Rome for landscape in 1837 with his picture of Apollo inventing the seven-stringed Lyre. On his return from Rome in 1842, he exhibited The Ravine, and in 1848, Daphne and Chloe at the Fountain of the Nymphs, for each of which he was rewarded with a gold medal. Other notable works included Nausicaa and Ulysses, Saint Jerome in the Desert, and 'A View of Tivoli. He also produced some small pictures, in the style of the realistic school, such as Campo Vicino (1845), which was lithographed by Anastasi; The Temple of Antoninus and Faustina (1846), a View of the Cascades of Tivoli, and a Park Interior, which rivalled photography in their neatness and sharpness of effect and minuteness of detail. He died in Paris in 1852.[1]

If you're looking for anime similar to Ginban Kaleidoscope, you might like these titles. All recommendations are made by Anime-Planet users like you!
Twelve year old Mitsuki's desire is to become a singer. She has the talent and a beautiful voice, but she also has a throat tumor which threatens to rob her of her gift of song. As if things weren't bad enough, two shinigami inform Mitsuki that she only has one year left to live. However, all is not lost, for they make a deal that if she goes with them, they will help realize her dream by changing her into a healthy 16-year-old, who is able to sing and apply for auditions.

I agree
Both "Full Moon" and "Ginban Kaleidoscope" deal with a girl's struggle to achieve stardom. They also deal with death and afterlife. I think if you liked one, you'll like the other. The main difference is between the main characters, who have very different personalities. Full Moon's Mitsuki is positive and cheerful while Ginban's Tazusa is rude and kind of arrogant.
A dead boy helping a girl in trouble while being in his ghost form,a girl who is determend to acheive her dream and an imposibble love are the things that represent these two animes. Both girls don't live with their parents but they make many friends and learn each day that you have to go through a lot of pain and suffering before you can make your dream come true. Even though the endings are different, both series have that something special in common
While watching Ginban Kaleidoscope, I couldn't help but think about how much it reminded me of FMwS. Not only because some of the character design (o_O?) but because of the interaction between the characters.
Both female counterparts are TOTALLY different, but what they both have to face is really similar. They're both young, and thrown into a world of stardom and trying to be the best at what they do. I felt that with the touch of romance (with guys that no one else can see?), the bittersweet resolution at the end really ties the knot between these two.
Both of these series contain a girl who is trying to become famous and improve her talent. In Ginban Kaleidoscope it's figure skating, and in FMwS it's singing. Both have romance as a main theme in the plot, and they each have something foreboding overshadowing that same romance to create suspense. While the pacing is slower in Full Moon wo Sagashite due to the different lengths, I definitely think a fan of shoujo stories like these would love both.
Sora is a sixteen year old girl who has travelled to the US to join the Kaleido Stage, one of the greatest circuses in existence. However, as luck would have it, she arrives to the audition late, which almost costs her the chance of a lifetime. Fortunately, she manages to join the Kaleido Stage anyways due to the compassion of Kalos, the owner of the troupe. With the help of her friends and Fool, the perverted spirit of the stage who has the ability to predict the future, Sora will overcome trials and tribulations and she struggles to become the Kaleido Star.
3 votes
I agree
In both series we have a talented yet clumsy girl who's aiming to be a top skater/acrobat. They both have to overcome their rivals ( who are "the perfection in person" but who lack spirit/heart). In their jurney they have lots of friends besides them, make their rivals their fiends and admirers , and also , become friends with a ghost. Watch them as they come closer to their goals, ad grow day by day little by little
Weird supernatural extra bits are in both anime and both main leads are working their hardest to become the best they can within their talents. Heavy competition with cruel rivals stand in their way to make it to the top. Both tend to be quite funny at times as well. I liked the humor more in Ginban Kaleidoscope but Kaleido Star had it's moments as well. Check one out if you liked the other
Those anime are very similar and, I think, both good. They're both about performance, they're both light, with a bit of comedy. It's also a pleasure to see the graphics and design in both case. In Kaleido Star there's more diversity, we see trapeze, diabolo, figure skating, trampoline and other circus arts while Ginban Kaleidoscope is only about figure skating.
I think it's a bit more competitive in Ginban Kaleidoscope, where it really is about winning while in Kaleido Star it's more about the show.
Birdy Cephon used to be a butt-kicking intergalactic Federation investigator who took down bad guys where they stand; Tsutomu Senkawa used to be a normal student with shy tendencies and a penchant for exploring abandoned houses. However, when Birdy accidentally killed Tsutomu while trying to apprehend a famous criminal on Earth, Geega, both of their lives changed forever! Now, while Tsutomu's body is reconstructed in a faraway place, the two must share the same body – Tsutomu controlling it by day, and Birdy taking over when she spots a criminal in need of tough justice. All Tsutomu wants is to live a normal life; can he manage to cope with Birdy's enormous eating habits, intense muscle use, and easily irritable attitude?
2 votes
I agree
The concept of sharing a body is evident in both Ginban Kaleidoscope and Birdy DECODE. Everything starts off a bit shaky between the owner of the body and the one who has entered the body; however, little by little they both get along and get through trouble together.
Both lead females have accidently been possessed by a random male because of his death. Hilarity occures in both these anime as they try to learn how to cope with this new issue. Birdy the Mighty Decode takes on a sci-fi nature which is slightly more serious than Ginban Kaleidoscope but both are entertaining in their own way. Check one out if you liked the other.
Awayuki Himeno is a normal schoolgirl who is in a bind: her father's remarriage yielded two new cruel stepsisters, and to top it off, she meets seven men who call themselves Liefe Knights. They reveal to her that she's a Pretear, someone who can lend powers to them when their powers aren't enough to defeat the evil creatures called mayouchuu. Now, she has to fight the ambitious Fenrir, whose only purpose is to leech the life force from all living beings. Can Himeno save the world and find a way to deal with her growing feelings for one of the Liefe Knights?
When I started watching Pretear, Himeno immediately reminded me of Tazusa from Ginban Kaleidoscope. Shoujo heroines who actually have a spine and who aren't afraid to get mad (as opposed to, y'know, running off and crying over some quasi-imagined insult until the male lead comes and gives her some motivational speech) are hard to come by, and often just come off as obnoxious and unreasonable. But I have to say I really liked both characters, and their reactions to their (very weird) situations were always pretty entertaining.
Once there lived an eccentric author called Drosselmeyer who wrote grand tragedies - one of them was the tale of a prince who sealed away an evil raven by breaking his own heart into tiny pieces. However, before the story could be completed, the author died and the tale took on a life of its own. Now, in a town where fiction and reality meet, the story continues on its tragic course with Ahiru, a duck who transforms into the beautiful Princess Tutu in order to restore the prince's heart. But will Ahiru's act of love be enough to defy the story's terrible destiny and lead to a happy ending?
both series are based on an artistical sport: ballet and skating. In both series we have a clumbsy girl who is trying her best to shine, and at the end shows that the most important things is for their beloved ones to be happy and have fun. In both series the girls rivals are "queen of the ice"/ princeess of ballet, who seem to have hearts of stone, but in the end show that Tazura/ Ahiru realy could get to them and make them smile and recognize them as being preatty good at what they do.Both series have a sad ending for the main female characters.

Thursday Oct. 1, 2009
VERONA, N.Y. (AP) -- Rookie Leif Olson has shot a 6-under 66 to tie Tim Petrovic for the first-round lead at the Turning Stone Resort Championship.
The opening round of the first event of the Fall Series was rainy and cold, but Olson, a 28-year-old native of Denver, found it to his liking. He had never held or shared the lead after any round on the PGA Tour and has made only four of 17 cuts this year.
Petrovic chipped in twice during his round, posting seven birdies and one bogey. It's the third time this season he's opened with a 66.
One shot behind them were Matt Kuchar, John Senden and Vaughn Taylor.
Defending champ Dustin Johnson birdied his last two holes to finish at 3-under 69.
Play was suspended at 6:30 p.m. because of darkness with nine
players on the course.

Scottish Rock Volume 1Ł23, added Aug/2008
Reviewed by Jack Geldard & Martin Chester
Lucky, lucky me to get my hands on a copy of the long awaited Scottish Rock guide – it's truly inspirational. An initial flick through the content had my palms sweating, and the pictures had me salivating from cover to cover.
The first thing that strikes you about this guide book is that it's like a parody of Scotland itself – It's massive, there's absolutely loads to do, and there are little gems all over the place. I'm afraid I'm a true Sassenach when it comes to Scottish rock climbing. Like the skipper in Black Adder, I set forth with great intentions and (where he fails to get further than the Isle of Wight) I always seem to end up in Reiff or Northumberland (sorry)! But no longer!
Take a closer look, and you can't help but marvel at the diversity of the climbing contained in one book. I had heard that the granite of Arran was awesome, but I'd never seen pictures like this. I'd paddled round Mull, but had no idea there was such a wealth of climbing, and all this before you even get to the Coe. From then on, it's like a feast of classic rock climbing, and you'll be amazed how often you find yourself thinking "of course – it even covers . . ." From roadside attraction to the remote corries of the Southern Cairngorms, the variety is quite staggering. And yes – the classics are all in there – from moderate to E10 without a trace of snobbery.
Furthermore, they are all beautifully photographed and presented in a guide that rides the crest of the "modern guidebook" wave. I, like everyone else I'm sure, will be hot footing it to Erraid with the family – in search of that white sand and turquoise sea under a bright blue sky. If only it was always like that.
The introductions, directions and maps are clear and informative. The photo diagrams are superb in both quality and detail, and simple icons tell you what you want to know at a glance.
I have to congratulate the effort that Gary Latter (and his team – even the acknowledgements are worth a read) put into this book, and they all deserve a special mention. The passion shines through the pages, and you can't help but get excited about Scottish Rock.
For now, this really is the only book you need for heading north of the border! I for one, simply can't wait for the next opportunity (and volume 2, of course)!
Thanks Gary – but about those midges . . .?
Scottish Rock is actually Scottish Rock Volume 1 (South). The book covers the following areas:
1 Arran
2 Arrochar Area
3 Mull & Iona
4 GlenCoe & Glen Etive
5 Ardgour & Ardnamurchan
6 Ben Nevis & Glen Nevis
7 Central Highlands
8 Cairngorms
9 Easter Ross
From the Foreword by Hamish MacInnes ... "Volume 1 covers a proliferation of Scottish crags up to the natural demarcation of the Great Glen. They are easier to access than most in Volume 2 and present infinite variety... The list seems endless and if you succeed in doing half of them you'll be a much better climber and know a lot more about Scotland – have a good decade!"
The book is full colour, with superb colour photo topos. It's 140x200mm in size, which is just a smidge smaller than Rockfax guides, but quite a bit bigger than the usual CC style guide. It weighs in at a large 480 pages, all packed with essential information covering over 1600 routes. Splitting the guides in to volume 1 and 2 was an extremely good idea – meaning more info and areas can be covered.
The guide has excellent colour maps and photo topos – with a selection of symbols and colour coding to make life easier. The design is modern and the layout is superb and logical. One slight tweak that could improve usability is keeping all route descriptions on the same page as their corresponding topo photograph – for speed and clarity. However this really is a minor niggle, and the route descriptions can usually be found with the turn of a single page.
Almost coffee table in its photo quality and covering thousands of routes – Scottish Rock is a must have for any visiting or local climber. Superb, well done Gary and Pesda Press - bring on Volume 2.
- More Info on Gary Latter: http://scottishrock.co.uk/
- More Info on Scottish Rock at Pesda Press
A native Scot, Gary Latter has climbed extensively throughout Scotland for almost three decades, pioneering hundreds of new routes of every standard throughout the Highlands and Islands, including major new routes and early repeats in all the major climbing areas throughout the country. During the dozen or so years researching and compiling these guides, he has personally visited and climbed on almost all the crags and cliffs documented, amassing an extensive collection of photographs along the way.
His favourite places in Scotland are the islands and the north west – anywhere with the possibility of finding new unclimbed rock, secluded beaches, and hopefully some decent weather and nae midges! Amongst these, Mingulay, Pabbay and the small tidal island of Erraid, off Mull, are some of the most memorable venues.
He lives with his wife in rural Perthshire, running his own business, Scottish Rock, instructing and guiding rock climbing and scrambling throughout the Highlands and Islands.

Multiple Sclerosis Health Center
Alternative and Complementary Therapies for MS
In this article
How Can I Tell Which Therapies Are Worth Taking?
Alternative therapy can be helpful in many cases, but some treatments don't work and can be costly and even dangerous. The best way to stay safe is to learn about a product before you use it. Good things to find out:
- What is the treatment?
- What does it involve?
- How does it work?
- Are there any risks?
- What are the side effects?
- Is it effective? (Ask for evidence or proof!)
- How much does it cost?
Once you answer these questions, think about your options and decide whether the benefits are greater than the risks.
If you do decide to try an alternative or complementary treatment, make sure your health and wallet are protected. Here are some tips.
Don't take any claim at face value. Contact reliable organizations and discuss the therapy. Talk to others in a support group, your family, and your health care team. Although they may not always be supportive, they can help you make an educated decision.
Discuss the therapy with your doctor. Make sure he knows what therapy you are considering so he can discuss possible side effects and how it may affect your current treatment. Your doctor can also give you information on other patients who may have tried the same therapy.
Talk to others who have used the therapy. Ask them what it was like. Don't rely only on testimonials from the person or company offering the treatment. Track down your own references and get their opinions.
Research the provider's background. Contact the Better Business Bureau and thoroughly research the therapy provider, including how long they've been offering the service and what credentials they have.
Avoid providers who refuse or are reluctant to work with your doctor. Be sure that the person is willing to refer clients to a conventional doctor when necessary.
Make sure you know the total cost of the treatment up front. Most of these therapies are not covered by your insurance.
What Red Flags Should I Watch For?
Promotion: Be cautious if products or providers are promoted through telemarketers, direct mailings, infomercials, ads disguised as valid news articles, or ads in the back of magazines.
Big claims: If a provider or product claims to be a "cure" for MS or makes other outrageous claims, be cautious.
Source: Be wary if the product is only being offered through one manufacturer.
Ingredients: Make sure all of the active ingredients are listed. Do not trust "secret formulas."
Testimonials: You'll usually only hear from people who are satisfied with the product, so beware, especially if you see or hear "paid endorsement" with their comments. Also, watch for testimonials by people who are only listed by initials, locations, or first names.

Michigan State Defense
The white and green defense ranks 8th in the FBS allowing only 226 yards of total offense, 11th allowing 55 yards rushing, and 27th passing allowing 171 yards per game. No team has scored a touchdown against the Spartans this season. Monster Defensive End 6'7" 278-pond Willam Gholston (7 tackles, 1 sack) and Linebacker Matt Bullough pace the unit. The Fighting Irish will have to fight extra hard to score on the Spartans who have kept dual threat quarterbacks like Golson in check.
A hot Notre Dame offense will face an even hotter MSU defense. The Fighting Irish defense is also very solid and has proven it can contain Bell. But can the blue and gold offensive line hold up its end of the bargain in protecting Golson and supporting Woods remains to be seen. It will be close as these games between the rivals tend to be but Notre Dame has beaten more worthy opponents this season. Now chalk up the Spartans in Spartan stadium on that list. The Irish have lost 12 of their last 15 openers but that trend will be reversed this Saturday.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Police have charged a 15-year-old boy with shooting a pregnant Pennsylvania teenager last month, killing her fetus.
Court papers show that Eric Taylor of Duquesne was arrested Tuesday. He's facing criminal homicide and other charges in last month's shooting of 15-year-old DaRae Delgado, who was seven months pregnant when she was shot by someone who knocked on the door of her home, covered the peephole and then opened fire when she answered.
Delgado's mother told local media that she knows Taylor's family and is shocked.

In 1887, my parents took up a claim on the old Fort Wallace Reservation in Kansas. Our new home was a one-room dugout with three half windows, one door and a good Mother Earth floor.
Buffalo chips were our only fuel. Back of the stove sat a fuel box in which a good supply of the chips was kept along with a hatchet with which to break the large, solid chips.
If the supply became low, someone would take a gunny sack and go out on the prairie and pick up more. In the fall, my father would hitch a team of oxen to an old lumber wagon and spend several days on the prairie gathering chips for our winter fuel. These were carefully stacked in the sod fuel shed.
How I loved fuel gathering days! I was allowed to ride in the wagon and sometimes I even got to drive the oxen. After there were no more buffalo chips we burned cow chips which were almost as good.

Back in 1955 a call went out from the editors of the then Capper's Weekly asking for readers to send in articles on true pioneers. Hundreds of letters came pouring in from early settlers and their children, many now in their 80s and 90s, and from grandchildren of settlers, all with tales to tell. So many articles were received that a decision was made to create a book, and in 1956, the first My Folks title – My Folks Came in a Covered Wagon – hit the shelves. Nine other books have since been published in the My Folks series, all filled to the brim with true tales from Capper's readers, and we are proud to make those stories available to our growing online community.

AbstractWe have investigated the pathway by which unilamellar POPC liposomes upon adsorption undergo rupture and form a supported lipid bilayer (SLB) on a SiO2 surface. Biotinylated lipids were selectively incorporated in the outer monolayer of POPC liposomes to create liposomes with asymmetric lipid compositions in the outer and inner leaflets. The specific binding of neutravidin and anti-biotin to SLBs formed by liposome fusion, prior to and after equilibrated flip-flop between the upper and lower monolayers in the SLB, were then investigated. It was concluded that the lipids in the outer monolayer of the vesicle predominantly end up on the SLB side facing the SiO2 substrate, as demonstrated by having maximum 30-40% of lipids in the liposome outer monolayer orienting towards the bulk after forming the SLB.

Guilty plea in Vt. town embezzlementThe Associated Press | March 25,2013BURLINGTON — A former Vermont town clerk and treasurer has pleaded guilty to embezzling several hundred thousand dollars from the town of Weybridge.
Karen Brisson served for about 28 years in Weybridge, a town of less than 900 residents 30 miles south of Burlington.
Prosecutors say Brisson stole money from 2006 to 2012, by writing checks from the town to herself. Officials say a forensic audit puts the town's loss at $476,000.
Brisson's attorney says Brisson's home is for sale and she has signed the mortgage over to the town. The town says it has a $500,000 insurance plan through the Vermont League of Cities and Towns.
