Nekoosa executives now owners
Paul Charapata was only 32 years old when he was named president of Nekoosa Coated Products, a specialty paper maker in central Wisconsin, in the city of Nekoosa.
This week, at age 39, he became one of the company's owners, along with two other executives and Wingate Partners, a Dallas private equity firm.
Terms of the deal weren't made public, but Charapata says the decision to acquire Nekoosa from Appleton-based Dunsirn Partners will help the company grow through an infusion of new money.
It's also a big move for Charapata and Nekoosa executives John Danio and Tim Reimer, now part owners of the company.
Danio, 45, is vice president of sales and marketing. Reimer, in his early 30s, is the controller.
"We are a young, entrepreneurial group really looking forward to growing this company. We put a lot of our own personal equity into it, relative to what we have," Charapata said.
Nekoosa was founded in the early 1960s as a specialty paper maker for 3M Co. In 1996, 3M divested seven divisions to form an independent company, Imation. That company, 3M/Imation, held Nekoosa until 2005 when it was sold to the investment group Dunsirn Partners and was renamed Nekoosa Coated Products.
The company now has 85 employees.
"You feel like it's high risk when you're betting on something unknown. But we have been around, and we know the people, the employees supporting us," Charapata said.
Nekoosa doesn't disclose its annual sales, but Charapata says the company has been successful and is focused on making products for the commercial digital printing industry.
The company has a goal of introducing a new product or an innovation every fiscal quarter.
One of Nekoosa's products is Digital MagneCote, a magnetized paper that can be used for business cards and company contact information.
"Small companies like ours are doing well because we are targeting specific niche markets. That's where the profits are," Charapata said.
Wingate Partners did not return a call seeking comment.
On its website, the private equity firm says it seeks underperforming companies or businesses that are well-managed but are in industries undergoing significant change. Its stand-alone companies typically have revenue between $50 million and $250 million.
"Profitability is preferred, but not essential. Half of the Wingate portfolio companies were under-performing at the time of acquisition," the company says.
Nekoosa's management team will have autonomy in running the business, according to Charapata.
Danio, with the company for 16 years, says it's been one of his "hopes and goals" to be one of the owners.
"It certainly puts a new spin on things. I have been waiting a long time for this," he said.
The company sells products globally but does its manufacturing in Wisconsin.
"We have been successful in growing our business over the last five years and didn't take the huge dip that most companies did," Charapata said.

Palace Malice scores upset in Belmont Stakes
NEW YORK -- Palace Malice took charge on the turn for home and won the Belmont Stakes this afternoon, holding off Preakness winner Oxbow and Kentucky Derby winner Orb.
The win gave Todd Pletcher his second Belmont winner in six years, and vindicated the trainer's support of a 3-year-old who came into the final leg of the Triple Crown with only one win.
Palace Malice, who finished 12th in the Derby and skipped the Preakness, covered the 1½ miles in a slow 2:30.70 on a fast track following a 24-hour downpour.
Palace Malice, ridden by Mike Smith and sent off at odds of 13-1, returned $29.60, $11.20 and $6.70. The colt was one of a record five entries by Pletcher.

CARDIOPULMONARY resuscitation in response to unexpected "cardiac arrest" is being increasingly practiced in community hospitals as well as in university teaching centers.1,2 Techniques of external cardiac massage have previously been well described.3-5 They have facilitated the initiation of resuscitative efforts by obviating the need for thoracotomy, making the number of people who may now be trained to undertake emergency resuscitation considerably greater than it was in earlier years when immediate thoracotomy was thought to be necessary for effective cardiac massage. There-fore, a resuscitation program involving all of the house staff and registered nurses was organized at the University of Wisconsin in 1965. Our purpose is to describe its development and to review the experience gained with it in the 18 months since its inception.

Are you looking for a big, absorbing book of nonfiction to fill these long winter nights? One to give as a present to a friend or relative who loves nonfiction? Want to get lost in another time, another place? Want to take a sea journey the old-fashioned way in grand style? In any of these cases, Dead Wake's the book for you.
Larson brings the era just before the U.S. entered World War 1 to vivid life. Having just completed it, I feel as though I recently crossed the Atlantic in one of the most modern and luxurious vessels of the early 20th century.
Not only is Larson excellent at capturing everyday life in earlier times, but he also provides a cast of highly believable characters from the famous: President Woodrow Wilson to the obsessed: rare book dealer Charles Lauriat, to the vanguard: early feminist architect and spiritualist, Theodate Pope.

The Top TenXW
It's the international language which is understands by anyone of any region. It removes all the barriers between different countries.
I am writing in English right now. Which actually proves something! English is the greatest thing that happened to the Earth
A language should be easy to learn and understand, and as well easy to read a write- English is all of the above when compared to the worlds other spoken languages.
I think the Slavic tongue sound terrible, as do the languages from the Orient, and Oriental writing is vastly over complicated, unnecessarily so. True Spanish is a pretty language, almost reminds me of poetry.
No doubt English is universal language (not sure aliens speak it ) but the whole world speaks itV72 Comments
You have to say first that the Spanish language is originally from Spain (Europe), because so much people don't known that Spain is on Europe, and then also most people from South America and central america speak it.
One of the few languages you can speak without feeling embarrassed. It is a very poetic language
The best language! Come on people, the most used language, it is used in such countries like, Mexico, Cuba and most of the Americas and I think the US Government is trying to make it an official language!
Spanish is very easy to learn and speak. It also looks and sounds amazing.V29 Comments
It is one of the most sweetest language in India as well as in world, the way of pronunciation in this language is is very sweet.
Without any doubt Bengali one of the most popular language of India & mother tongue of Bangladesh is the sweetest language of all. In the world of literature contribution of Bengali is no less than English or any other language.
Most of the IndoAryan Languages have the same origin and Sanskrit is the mother of many languages speak in Indian subcontinent. Sanskrit was the language of a rich culture and heritage since the time when most of the modern languages did not exist even English, the best international language without doubt. But this supremacy and elegant nature of English (with all due respect to the language from my heart and all the people speaking English) would not be possible without the British empire... What I mean to say is political power and not the pronunciation beauty of English played the key role for its world wide acceptance. Bengali is the sweetest language emerged from Sanskrit without doubt and in course of evolution since 10th century or prior to it, mixing with other languages it has become simpler as well as sweeter because of its eclectic quality and is still evolving. Bengali literature, songs, films has won all the greatest awards of the world in their respective fields without ...more
Sweetest language in the world...V408 Comments
French is the best language in the world! It is a very polite languge and people who think that French is a bad language are silly. The French language is obviously by far the best language so just admit it!
Bonjour, Minseurs, Madames and Madamoselles!
French is GREAT!
Comment ca va?
French is the best language! Much better than all the languages they listed anyway!
An important language speaks in the all world, culture, elegance, prestige and beautiful. If you don't have the luck to be francophone it's the language to learn and discover an entire new world of the french language. If you don't believe me try, it's really worth it. - lili117V27 Comments
I know I shouldn't talk as I am Italian, but always living abroad I think a can give a personal opinion. I really love French and Spanish, I like English (British), Russian and actually Arabic too, a little. But I must say, Italian is the best. Its sound is amazing, is romantic, fluent, joyful, so poetical and "classical" (also because it comes from Latin). Its meanings are wonderful, with plenty of different shades and synonyms. There is no language like this, or at least for me.
Proved to be the most clear (or clearest) language on the radio, it has a very long history in fine litterature, a musical sound and a very broad dictionary (almost like English and Hindi, but with a bigger freedom to express having real verbal conjugation and free positioning of complements in phrasal period). It is a pity it is so irregular, but some might say this is good too.
A language which is simply a beautiful music to hear... So rythmic and romantic to listen and to speak, a language which has been the founder of most of languages in the world.
We are always confusing Italian and Spanish, but after a while you know that Spanish is much better, even if both are weak and old languages.V19 Comments
I can compare Latin, Greek, Italian, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Russian and English. English has the biggest vocabulary, but unfortunately including too many homonyms. Being spoken worldwide, English is also the fastest in coming up with new terms and notions, which often remain unknown in other European languages until years, sometimes decades, later. A practical advantage of English is its simple grammar, but that also limits possibilities of expressing subtle aspects. Italian, Spanish, French, Dutch and even German also have simplified grammars, albeit not as simplistic as English.
Latin and Greek are beautifully structured and both well suited to poetry and science, but Latin seems a little cleaner. Roman poets loved decoration as much as Greek poets, but the Latin language can also express the essence of things with stoic and efficient purity.
Grammatically Russian is structured similar to Latin and Greek, taking all the advantages from that. Of those modern ...more
Best language to express any specific feeling situation it's deep and very precise language... Maybe that's why so much writers and poets used this language for their masterpieces
Ok, some of the greatest poets used this language to describe feeling and emotions(Leo Tolstoy greatest writer in Russian history). Very cool language to speak. All of you should know it.
It's best and not needing causes!V19 Comments
I love Japanese language, I speak both Spanish and English and after speaking these languages for all your life you eventually get tired. I started watching anime a few months ago and the moment I hear it, I loved the language.
Japanese in college is challenging, but if you get a good tutor to speak some to you it will sound quite melodious. Japanese is also the language of Japan, which I adore all things Japan. Go Japan from US!
The most beautiful language in the world for me
Better than ItalianV12 Comments
Sinhalese better known as Sinhala is an Indo-Aryan Language which is Spoken by Sinhalese, Though I am not a Sinhalese I knew it from my childhood, I hope its one of the Best Languages in the World, A Person who can Pronounce Sinhala well undoubtedly will able to Pronounce any Language in the World in a native manner (or closer) that's the amazing fact
Sinhalese or Sinhala is one of the very few melodious languages in the World, Sinhalese no doubt becomes one of the most fertile and Greatest languages in the World as well.
Sinhala is considered as the most beautiful accent & most beautiful alphabet that a language has on earth. It has evolved for over 1000 years and so is well designed today. But, unfortunately, it's spoken by a very small no. Of people around the world and majority in Sri Lanka, also among the top 30 dying languages due to decreasing use of it due to lack of natural evolution and lack of availability of reference for higher studies and research. But, it still is the most beautiful language on earth.
I love my language!V308 Comments
There is only one language I know perfect for science on this planet. And it is german. I am studying physics in America. And even the war is over for years and english overtook the place for most important language in science our professor still has told us to study this language, to get better in physic. And I did, and what did I learn? I firstly understood the relativity Therory in a whole new way of course. But I was able to get it much better. Still it is hard to get, because I wasn't able to get all of it, but I am moving on...
What I've learned is, that german is a language you shoul learn at least for science, because it has developed very important stuff, we still need today.
And if you are not that kind, it is still worth learning, because English lost so much through invasions of its heritage, you'll see by learning german. So learning is easy after a while, but the start is hard, because you are prejudiced by bad rumors of this language.
Not to forget, I am just ...more
Only through the complexity of this language, many developments have occured like "The relativity Theorie" and a lot of other modern stuff. But this is only a sidewalk of this language. It sounds hard to most non native speakers because the language is in relation to "Hitler" and it will stay there for a long time, I guess. Whatever language you like to learn, a language is always the best thing you can do for your brain. So as a native english speaker, german is very related and should not be banished because of history, like nearly 70 years ago.
German for me is the most creative flexible and also precise Language. Not only for Science and Research, but also for literature, music and culture. It is so rich of words and expressions and you can make up new words by combining existing ones. I like the Sound and melody of the language. It sounds very educated and represents the modern Germany with its modern, elegant, efficient and also fun orientated Lifestyle. As the two biggest European Parties are celebrated there. Oktoberfest in Munich and Carneval in Cologne. The Language fits to with it and to have great Fun!
May not sound the sweetest but it is so helpful for science! - MuchWowV18 Comments
I am a Thamizh. I know fluently to read, write and speak in Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Hindi, and have knowledge in Sanskrit grammar also. In my opinion I see Thamizh is "THE BEST". Not because I am a Thamizh but in no other languages I knew the words are having their roots and correct reasons in them. And those words' roots you can find in Thamizh. And the words not only just have correct reasons but when put together in sentences "ITS SWEET". I think this sweetness is because of its "SIMPLENESS".
Only 30% of ancient Tamil literature is recovered... Other older literary proofs got destroyed in natural calamities... In 30% of the existing content we have such a rich content... Now you can think about the greatness in this language... Tamil (TAMIZH) THE BEST
I really love Tamil poems. They describe emotions into many cascading layers effortlessly. I love the way Tamil poem's world selection. Let it be the hell or heaven, one will feel it while reading. I cried many a times. It brought Che Kuvera in me. I've got the kick of 1000 bottles of wine at a same time. Very happy to see it, topping the list of Indian languages. Today I know there are 9 more beautiful languages I can't just miss..
A heart full of satisfaction when I speak my mother tongue. #TamilV206 Comments
The Contenders
Have you guys ever listened to nasheed? Have you guys ever read portions of the Quran? I am not a Muslim myself, but I start trembling and crying every time I do. The words sound so beautiful when recited, and the complexity in its meaning is simply beyond me. Have you guys ever visited an Arab or Muslim country? These people respect their mothers. These people are honest with their employees. These people cherish their neighbors. These people personally welcome tourists as their guests. These people genuinely care for one another. These people are so smart, so kind, so content... they're simply enlightened.
And our society? We disrespect our parents, our teachers, our women, our neighbors, and our coworkers. We are far too busy to care for the single mother or the homeless man or the orphan child. We don't even have enough modesty to respect ourselves. I don't know why but in these people I see pure light. And I think their language and their culture are one and the same - ...more
The original Arabic text of the Qur'an has been preserved from the time of its revelation. Translations have been done into various languages, but they all refer back to the original Arabic. In order to fully understand the magnificent words of their Lord, Muslims make every attempt to understand the rich and poetic classical Arabic language. - Bringls
Arabic is so beautiful, and it has so many different accents which makes it even more special, and the original Arabic (Arabic Fus-ha) is the most beautiful of them all! I feel so proud of speaking Arabic!
Every word of Arabic language has its root as Tamil. There is a book written in Arabic language about the beauty of it. The language used in this book itself is very beautiful.V35 Comments
It can be treated as the worlds sweetest language... Because already it has a title "Italian of the east".. Most of the words in Telugu ends with vowels which brought the language sweetness... Once you listen the language you can will believe that even honey is also somewhat lesser in sweetness of the Telugu... Its simply rocks... And music in this particular language is simply super... This language had preserved the language game called 'asthavadanam' which has extinguished in the other Indian languages except Sanskrit...
Eager to learn Telugu.. Its nice to hear this language and even to learn... I can say this, as one of the sweetest classical languages I heard. It is even called as "Italian of east"...
Telugu has been voted as the 2nd best script in the world by International Alphabet Association.

The Portuguese from Europe and Africa sucks, but the Portuguese from Brazil is awesome. It sounds totally different than any other kind of Portuguese spoken worldwide. It is consequence of the influence that the Brazilian Portuguese received of a lot of other languages, such as Italian, Spanish, German, languages of Brazilian Indians, and languages brought from Africa by black slaves. It is what made the Portuguese from Brazil be the beautiful language that it is nowadays.
I think it is he best language ever
The most poetic language ever! It's so phonetic
I have to say it sounds so uniqueV15 Comments
Best language, with great pronouns and many meaning of one word, like in English... You can sing really great song in Hindi, which can be feel in heart, and its easy to speak as an second language, if you can speak neighbour language of Hindi, like Nepali, Bhojpuri, Bengali etc... I am not botn in India so my mother tongue is not Hindi, but I can still speak Hindi, I learn Hindi in 2-3 years. Just by watching movies, etc. So if you live near by India than its easy for you to learn English. And I think its kind of easy for others too. You can feel the words that is in Hindi... This language has really good feeling to your emotion. You can easily make jokes, story, etc in Hindi... Because it is different but the best language to learn and speak. My native language is Nepali, but I think Hindi is also a great language to speak. - Krishnadahal1999
Without any doubt I can tell that Hindi is one of the best language in the world
I am an Indian and I can proudly say that Hindi our main language is the best language in the whole world... I am really sad to see some people if India voting their state languages over Hindi...This language is a source which in its own way unites India
Hindi is the worstV38 Comments
Latin has been a dead language for a thousand years, yet people still speak it. That must prove the strength and beauty of the Latin language.
This should be #1 because without it would we not have languages such as Italian and Spanish, plus this language was supposed to be the superior language, not English. It is also a very poetic language.
Latin may be a dead language, but it is what structured languages such as English and French. Everyone who learns Latin learns it to accept its beauty.
Always good to go back to the roots. - keycha1nV2 Comments
It is a very nice languages to learn. I am mostly proud to be learning it well.
It's very unique language for sure with a nice sound and melody. It may be challenging to learn it, but result is worth it
It's such an interesting and unique language.
Chinese is the most beautiful language in the world, especially traditional Chinese, it consists of China's 5, 000 years of history. Either in its writing or speaking, it's perfectly amazing.
Every Chinese-English word translation has a meaning & a story. That's why they have various regional Chinese dialects whatever they use depend on their locality. - VNTMFans
It's the only language that each character has its own meaning, and the meaning can be shown in the character because it might show the sound, shape, or both.
Chinese is the language of the FUTUREV18 Comments
Greek should be at least at top 10. It's the Big Mama of ALL European Languages. It is a very interesting, and one of the few surviving Ancient Languages. For a thousand years it was the most important language in tge world, everyone should speak Greek, even Jesus Christ knew Greek. It is simply Majestic...
Seriously? Greek should be on number 1...
Why is Greek so low in that list? Almost every language has many greek words in it.. We owe the greek language the existense of all of our languages..

I'm Swedish and this language is so beautiful! Yes I know, swedish and norweigan (and danish) are identical, but for me, norweigan sounds like Swedish but with such a beautiful and holy accent.
Way prettier than Swedish (my opinion, Swedish sounds quite natural for me).
Ukrainian language sometimes like Italian, so nice melodic and soft
Very melodic language, just try listening to it!
Ukrainian songs are well known in all former Soviet republics because of their beauty. When Ukrainians speak their language abroad, many people stop to listen to it and ask: what language is this?

South Carolina offensive line coach Shawn Elliott has been a busy man as the Gamecocks prepare for Monday's Capital One Bowl against Nebraska.
With right guard Terrence Campbell likely out for the game because of a broken right leg, Elliott had to prepare right tackle Rokevious Watkins to move to right guard. But Elliott isn't concerned about how Watkins will play because he started 13 of 14 games at right guard last year.
"The last couple weeks, we've been putting him in there at right guard quite a bit," Elliott said. "(Saturday), he played both tackle positions and also guard. He's comfortable doing it."
The plan is for Kyle Nunn to start at left tackle, but he hasn't played since the fourth game -- a span of more than three months. Elliott likes what he has seen from Nunn in practice and believes he is completely healthy after dealing with a back injury and blood clot in his leg.
"I think Kyle can play four quarters," Elliott said. "We're going to find out. He's moving around pretty well. Conditioning seems to be in order. I think he's ready to go."
If Nunn has to come off the field, Watkins would return to left tackle and reserve Ronald Patrick would play right guard, Elliott said.
"Ronald Patrick played well against Clemson," Elliott said. "He's been injured during the bowl prep to some extent, so he's just overcome that and getting back to 100 percent."
Miles will play -- somewhere
USC coach Steve Spurrier has said a scholarship would be available for tailback Kenny Miles if he decides to return for his fifth-year senior season. Whether Miles wants to come back remains uncertain.
But Miles did make it clear Saturday that he will play football somewhere next season. He graduated last month and participated in USC's Senior Night ceremonies. NCAA rules allow a player who has already graduated to transfer for his final season without having to sit out. "I have another year left, so I definitely want to play," he said. "I'm a football player. I want to play somewhere."
Miles said he isn't thinking about next season and won't until after the bowl. He will start the bowl game. True freshman had started all five games since was knocked out for the year with a knee injury.
Miles said what happens in the bowl game won't factor in to his decision, and that potential playing time next season won't be a major factor, either.
"Once this game is over, I'll sit down with my family and decide what's best for us," he said. "But I love South Carolina to death. I talked to coach Spurrier. He already said that if I want to come back, I can. So I'm excited to hear that."
David reflects on Juco
Nebraska's best defensive player and leading tackler, first-team All-American senior linebacker Lavonte David, spent just two years in Lincoln. He played his first two years at Fort Scott Community College in Kansas, because he didn't qualify academically coming out of high school.
He played for powerhouse Northwestern High in Miami and was part of back-to-back undefeated state championship teams in his final two seasons, 2006 and 2007. While his teammates headed off to high-profile college teams, David had to refocus at junior college -- and he did.
"In high school, seeing all your friends going to big Division I schools and you have to go to a junior college, it's a real humbling moment," he said. "Junior college is a tough experience, but at the same time, it helps you realize the reality of things."

Air Show is an iOS app that lets users preview, select and edit images on their iPhone/iPad screen while simultaneously displaying the more polished view on an HDTV screen.
Finally! Apple TV 2 is getting some support inside of the next redsn0w release. Though it is still in the works, and there is only a developers version available, Twitter has begun to buzz with the sound of well known jailbreaking, iOS, and Apple TV devs talking Apple TV support in redsn0w. At the moment it is not entirely clear what the end product will be regarding its functionality and features offered to the Apple TV 2.
Amazon is selling the new 1080p Apple TV for $89.99 with free shipping. That's the lowest price ever offered by Amazon for Apple TV 3. Get the little hockey puck now, since this offer may not last long.
Although the jailbreak for Apple TV 3 is not available yet, the Apple TV community is working hard to bring it to you as soon as possible.
Apple's new operating system OS X Mountain Lion is now on the scene, giving us Mac fans yet another reasons to profess our undying love for our favorite devices. Probably the most anticipated new feature is that Mountain Lion gives users the ability to take advantage of AirPlay Mirroring, which allows for wireless video and audio streaming from your computer right to your Apple TV. But not all Apple owners will be so lucky.
AirServer, an AirPlay receiver that enables you to stream audio, videos, photos, and photo slideshows to your Mac, Windows PC or iOS device, has been just updated to version 4.4 that adds desktop mirroring support for Mountain Lion. The new version of AirServer also adds support for high resolution mirroring from iOS 6 and Mountain Lion, support for fast user switching and some optimizations for MacBook Pro Retina.

So Coach Bob Stoops isn't buying the SEC dominance just becuase they have won the last seven national championships. He points out the bottom six are not doing anything special and the conference as a whole hasn't created a huge gap when compared to the other major conferences.
He is right about the SEC as a whole, as they have had coaching turnover and bad losses to the mid-majors as well. Just look at Arkansas last year, they were chosen to be one of the favorites and they fell apart and lost several non-conference games against supposedly inferior teams. Kentucky is another example having one of the worst records in college before ejecting their coach last year. So, like every other conference the have their haves and have-nots and just happen to have the best team in football the last couple of years.
So, does this mean the Big12 and Big10 are inferior when comapred to the SEC? No, it only means that the SEC's top teams have been the top national team the last cpuple of years. The SEC conference bowl record as whole is another indicator of this. It is not time to crown the SEC as a dynasty, only to recognize that they have had the best team in college football the last few years.
I like the way Coach Stoops says: "He is not worried about it".
What do you think?

Darius Rucker, Sawyer Brown and Chris Cagle playing local fairs this weekend
The summer cavalcade of country music stars hitting the state's county fairs continues this weekend in Southeastern Wisconsin with Darius Rucker visiting the Washington County Fair in West Bend tonight and Sawyer Brown and Chris Cagle playing the grandstand at the Racine County Fair in Union Grove Saturday night.
It's another great opportunity for area fans to catch some of the genre's big stars and legends at a pretty affordable price. For Rucker's Washington County show, fair attendees can watch for free, or add on VIP access for $25. In Racine, the Sawyer Brown and Cagle double bill costs just $5 above fair admission for a grandstand seat and $10 for fans who want to sit up close on the track in front of the stage. »Read Full Blog Post

Forward Theater's 'Or,' celebrates the art of the possible
Madison — In the arresting and audacious Prologue to Liz Duffy Adams' "Or," — the rollicking but also moving mash-up of 1660s Restoration comedy and 1960s idealism being directed by Jennifer Uphoff Gray at Forward Theater — actor Amy J. Carle gives the audience quite a bit more than the standard warning about silencing cellphones.
Still in street clothes en route to disappearing backstage and becoming Aphra Behn — 17th-century poet, playwright and spy — Carle delivers 40 lines of iambic verse describing what's to come. »Read Full Article

The dog, adopted by the family of a Brewers official after he showed up as a stray at spring training camp in Arizona in February, was a media star during pregame activity, including with a crew from ABC's "World News Tonight." ABC said the segment is scheduled to air on Tuesday's 5:30 p.m. newscast. »Read Full Article(1)

Oil Tank Removal
Recent Changes to Regulations
As per SL 2015-41 Section 14.16B.(b) (page 226), from October 1, 2015, the Department of Environment Quality (DEQ) may not require that a responsible party take immediate action or initial abatement actions for leakage from a noncommercial underground storage tank (UST), such as an underground residential home heating oil tank. The noncommercial leaking UST Trust Fund will no longer be in operation for any release from noncommercial USTs not already reported to the State by October 1, 2015.
Though cleanup of soils contaminated by noncommercial UST releases may not be required, if a release has occurred the DEQ will still require the filing of a deed restriction for soils and groundwater prior to the conveyance or transfer of the property. This deed restriction may impact the value, saleability and redevelopment potential of the property. In such case it may be advisable to consider cleanup of the contaminated soils to reduce or remove any impact of a deed restriction.
The DEQ will be providing updated regulatory guidance during October 2015. The information on this web site will be updated as details are provided by the DEQ. It is still necessary to report releases from noncommercial (and commercial) USTs within 24 hours of discovery. We strongly advise that you contact Cedar Rock at 336-376-0394 to discuss your particular situation.
The regulations for a release from an above ground storage tank (AST) are unchanged. Site cleanup is still required when a release has occurred from an AST.
A leaking oil tank remains a potential environmental and financial liability.
Experienced Oil Tank Services
The links to the left are currently being updated to properly reflect the applicable changes to North Carolina legislation made in September 2015. To discuss your situation, the changes to the Legislation, or to schedule a site inspection to check for the presence of an underground oil tank and/or soil contamination please contact us at 336-376-0394 or use our contact form.

In a recent U. S. Supreme Court case, an Internet publisher challenged the authority of Congress to extend the duration of copyrights.
Federal copyright law grants authors, musicians, and artists exclusive rights to their creative works for a limited period of time. When the period of time expires, the works enter into the public domain. Works in the public domain can be copied by anyone without the creator's permission.
In 1998, Congress passed the Sonny Bono copyright Term Extension Act, which extended copyrights owned by individuals from 50 to 70 years after the individual's death. The law extended copyrights held by corporations from 75 to 95 years.
The original party to challenge the law was Eric Eldred, an Internet publisher who posts English, American, French and Russian Literature on his Web site, www.eldritchpress.org. The literature is almost exclusively in the public domain and Eldred offers it free. Several music publishers, film preservation groups, and publishers of genealogies later joined Eldred in the suit.
The parties who challenged the law stressed that the copyright clause of the U.S. Constitution gives Congress the power to secure exclusive rights to authors regarding their writings "for limited times" only. This "limited" time had been extended 11 times in the last 40 years, and the copyright extension act retroactively extended copyrights on works that were on the verge of entering the public domain. The challengers claimed that Congress had overstepped its authority, as envisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Another argument put forth against the act was that copyrights are not immune from free speech scrutiny under the First Amendment. The challengers argued that after a copyright expires, the creative work belongs to the public without restraint.
On Jan. 15, , the U. S. Supreme Court ruled in a 7-2 decision that Congress did not exceed its constitutional authority by passing the act. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg penned the majority opinion.
Regarding the copyright clause challenge, Ginsburg wrote that "limited times" does not mean "fixed" or "inalterable." She concluded that Congress was therefore within its power to extend future and existing copyrights.
In rejecting the First Amendment free speech argument, Ginsburg wrote that "the First Amendment securely protects the freedom to make - or decline to make - one's own speech; it bears less heavily when speakers assert the right to make people's speeches."
The decision has far-reaching implications. Had the act been declared unconstitutional, copyrights of works created in the 1920's would have been in immediate jeopardy. Early Mickey Mouse cartoons and talking picture movies would have entered the public domain, as well as music and literature from that same period. As a result of the court's decision, these works will not enter the public domain until at least Dec. 31, 2018.

Our law firm embraces the most challenging cases, having established a strong reputation for securing financial recovery in cases that other lawyers chose not to accept. In fact, our firm was able to negotiate a settlement in excess of half a million dollars for a client who first brought his case to one of Tennessee's largest law firms. They told him his case was "worthless." The outcome suggests otherwise.
When you retain Ramer & Hedrick, P.C., we will handle your case with the utmost care.

Our lawyers utilize such experts to help solidify a direct correlation between your injury and the other person's negligence in the eyes of a Chattanooga jury.
We are experienced in the tactics used by the insurance industry to limit or deny the compensation you rightly deserve. You can begin by not making statements or signing documents before meeting with an experienced personal injury lawyer.
If you or a loved one has been hurt due to the negligence of another party, call us now at (423) 855-4444 to set up a free consultation.

Product Description
From Amazon
The medium used to be the message. But in the "collide-oscopic" barrage of image and text that resulted from Marshall McLuhan's 1967 collaboration with graphic designer Quentin Fiore, the medium becomes the massage. The basic premise of this playful popularization of McLuhan's theories of the electronic revolution will be familiar to readers of his other works: "Any understanding of social and cultural change is impossible without a knowledge of the way media work as environments." But more than McLuhan's other work, The Medium Is the Massage also reflects the tumultuous decade in which it was produced, the 60s. It was a time when existentialism, the theatrr of the absurd, "happenings," and Eastern religions were all the rage in academic circles. Massage adds to that mix traces of utopianism ("We have now become aware of the possibility of arranging the entire human environment as a work of art"; a hint of radicalism (of electronic circuitry McLuhan says: "Its message is Total Change, ending psychic, social, economic, and political parochialism. The old civic, state, and national groupings have become unworkable."); and a bracing pinch of paranoia ("Electrical information devices for universal, tyrannical womb-to-tomb surveillance" have brought us "to a point where remedial control, born out of knowledge of media and their total effects on all of us, must be exerted."). True to its observation that "information pours upon us, instantaneously and continuously," McLuhan and Fiore shower us with photographs, cartoons, newspaper headlines, backwards and upside-down writing, and other graphical innovations. The book is also packed with quotations from a motley collection of savants (in addition to McLuhan himself, of course): Alfred North Whitehead, James Joyce, Lao Tsu, John Dewey, John Cage, and Bob Dylan. The book's design and content aptly, and palpably, demonstrate the insights that have caused many highly stimulated readers to pronounce McLuhan a visionary, a veritable "oracle of the electronic age." --Russell Prather --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Library Journal
From the "I can't believe this went out of print" file come two of McLuhan's signature titles. Though a lot of this may seem like freaky rantings from the Sixties (LJ 6/1/67 and LJ 11/1/68, respectively), many of McLuhan's observations on technology, violence, etc., still ring true.

Forty-five years later, I can see how the book's format and the message within presaged the effects of worldwide media and the publishing industry:
"The Medium is the Massage" reveals how the medium, or process, of our time--electric technology--is reshaping and restructuring patterns of social interdependence and every aspect of your personal life. How it is forcing you to reconsider and re-evaluate practically every thought and every institution you formerly took for granted."
The book's appearance, that of mixing visuals and text, reminded me of later novels such as Douglas Coupland's Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture and Dennis Rodman's memoirs Bad As I Wanna Be and Walk on the Wild Side, all of which were written for readers with ever declining attention spans.Read more ›
But where's the album? Hello, all you who hold intellectual copyrights on his stuff! Please re-issue this in more modern mediums.
I have a copy of his LP from the 1960s and it is fascinating and remarkable and also ahead of its time. The sampling and meandering drifting beats found in techno/electronica music today hearkens back to this LP. When is it going to be re-issued? The world is waiting and is truly missing out!
The Book ripped!
I rate 0 because it is cheap glue that attaches the pages, but content is 5/5!
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
This book takes his sometimes impenetrable prose and places it in a context of compelling photographs, advertisements, and cartoons in order to dramatically illustrate the meaning of his words, and the radical effect that changes in communications technology have on the lives of all the world's citizens. "It is impossible to understand social and cultural changes without a knowledge of the workings of the media," he writes.
The Medium is the Massage begins and ends with quotes from Albert North Whitehead. The first is that "The major advances in civilization are processes that all but wreck the societies in which they occur." The last is that "It is the business of the future to be dangerous."
There always are jeremiads against the new by those who are accustomed to the old. McLuhan quotes Socrates: "The discovery of the alphabet will create forgetfulness in the learners' souls, because they will not use their memories; they will trust to the external written characters and not remember of themselves...You give your disciples not truth but only the semblance of truth; they will be heroes of many things, and will have learned nothing; they will appear to be omniscient and will generally know nothing."
The effects of the media on individuals are profound. "All media work us over completely. They are so pervasive in their personal, political, economic, aesthetic, pyschological, moral, ethical, and social consequences that they leave no part of us untouched, unaffected, unaltered. The medium is the massage. Any understanding of social and cultural change is impossible without a knowledge of the way media work as environments. All media are extensions of some human faculty--psychic or physical."
Media affect you, the individual citizen. "Electrical information devices for universal, tyrannical womb-to-tomb surveillance are causing a very serious dilemma between our claim to privacy and the community's need to know. The older, traditional ideas of private, isolated thoughts and actions--the patterns of mechanistic technologies--are very seriously threatened by new methods of instantaneous electric information retrieval, by the electrically computerized dossier bank--that one big gossip column that is unforgiving, unforgetful and from which there is no redemption, no erasure of early 'mistakes.' We have already reached a point where remedial control, born of knowledge of media and their total effects on all of us, must be exerted...."
Media affect your family. "The family circle has widened. The whirlpool of information fathered by the electic media--movies, Telstar, flight--far surpasses any possible influence mom and dad now bring to bear. Character no longer is shaped by only two earnest, fumbling experts. Now all the world's a sage."
Media affect your neighborhood. "Electric circuitry has overthrown the regime of 'time' and 'space' and pours upon us instantly and continuously the concerns of all other men. It has reconstitued dialogue on a global scale. Its message is Total Change, ending psychic, social, economic, and political parochialism. The old civic, state, and national groupings have become unworkable. Nothing can be further from the spirit of the the new technology than 'a place for everything and everything in its place.' You can't GO home again."
Media affect your education. "Today's television child is attuned to up-to-the-minute 'adult' news--inflation, rioting, war, taxes, crime, bathing beauties--and is bewildered when he enters the nineteenth century environment that still characterizes the educational establishment where information is scarce but ordered and structured by fragmented, classified patterns, subjects, and schedules. It is naturally an environment much like any factory set-up with its inventories and assembly lines."
Media affect your job. "From the fifteenth century to the twentieth century, there is a steady progress of fragmentation of the stages of work that constitute 'mechanization' and 'specialism.' These procedures cannot serve for survival or sanity in this new time. Under conditions of electric cicuitry, all the fragmented job patterns tend to blend once more into involving and demanding roles or forms of work that more and more resemble teaching, learning, and 'human' service, in the older sense of dedicated loyalty."
Media affect your government. "Nose-counting, a cherished part of the eighteenth century fragmentation process, has rapidly become a cumbersome and ineffectual form of social assessment in an envrionment of instant electric speeds. The public, in the sense of a great consensus of separate and distinct viewpoints, is finished. Today, the mass audience (the successor to the 'public') can be used as a creative, participating force. It is instead merely given packages of passive entertainment. Politics offers yesterday's answers to today's questions. A new form of 'politics' is emerging, and in ways we haven't yet noticed. The living room has become a voting booth. Participation via television in Freedom Marches, in war, revolution, pollution, and other events is changing EVERYTHING."
Media affect our relationships with groups of other citizens. "The shock of recognition. In an electric information environment, minority groups can no longer be contained, ignored. Too many people know too much about each other. Our new environment compels commitment and participation. We have become irrevocably involved with, and responsible for, each other. There is absolutely no inevitability as long as there is a willingness to contemplate what is happening."
This book is, in short, a superb introduction to McLuhan's thinking. Ideally, it would be read before any of McLuhan's other books. Understanding McLuhan takes some time and thought, but the effort is well worth it to understand today's media and today's world.
"Only the hand that erases can write the true thing," McLuhan quotes Meister Eckhardt as saying. McLuhan erases preconceptions of media being relatively insignificant, and demonstrates how the media affect the way each of us sees the world in which we live.
A memorable photo in the book is one of a middle-aged man dressed in a business suit and carrying a briefcase standing upon a surfboard, riding the waves. "In his amusement born of rational detachment of his own situation, Poe's mariner in 'The Descent Into the Maelstrom' staved off disaster by understanding the action of the whirlpool," says McLuhan's accompanying prose. "His insight offers a possible strategem for understanding our predicament, our electrically-configured whirl."
The last cartoon in the book--from the New Yorker in 1966--summarizes McLuhan's essential theme. A young man with a guitar discusses McLuhan with his father in a well-appointed library. "You see, Dad, Professor McLuhan says the enviroment that man creates becomes his medium for defining his role in it. The invention of type created linear, or sequential, thought, separating thought from action. Now, with TV and folk singing, thought and action are closer and social involvement is greater. We again live in a village. Get it?"
We all should get McLuhan. The development of Internet--likely even more transformative than television--has greatly revived interest in McLuhan's view of technological changes as changing us as people, and of creating a global village for all of us to live in. "We impose the form of the old on the content of the new. The malady lingers on," McLuhan warns. We should heed his warnings and recognize, embrace, and work for constructive improvements in the ever-changing world in which we live.
The flash of the book has worn off some by now and the graphics, the photos and creative layout of the pages seems to be more of a period piece. Still, because this brief book portrays so many key concepts that currently fill us now. We do not notice the power of the media until we are someplace that does not have it. Like a fish out of the water, we take for granted the influence of the technology around us; we assume that they have been with us forever and we never slow down to challenge these concepts. So, thank God for McLuhan's book.
I've recommended this book to my students and it's fun to see how they read it (because it's so short) and open up to some of the concepts about the media's power. It's as if they had known it all along, but needed McLuhan's book to come along and draw it out of them.
our century. Understanding his ideas and his perspective
is -essential- for understanding what has happened to
mankind in the last twenty thousand years, especially
in this century, as our technology modifies us at an
accelerated pace. That's what this book, _The Medium is
the Massage_, is all about. I always recommend this book
to anyone involved with technology, communications, or the
future. Although he originally wrote his ideas in standard
prose (he was an English professor), hardly anyone read his
books -- let's face it, most of us won't wade through
non-sensational nonfiction. So he produced this book to
exploit the printed page in its hottest form, making his
ideas as tasty and easy to swallow as a hot fudge sundae.
This book is thus a living example of his thesis! Though
the number of ideas per page is much smaller than in his
standard works (much much smaller), it packs a powerful
punch by delivering the key ideas connected to descriptive
graphics (one picture is worth...).
This book is to anyone involved in technology and the future
what the Bible is to Christians or the Koran is to Moslems.
Don't just get this book and read it -- consume it. The
future of our civilization may depend on it.

Carrollton student a top 10 finalist in National Geographic Bee
North Texas will be represented at the National Geographic Bee Championship on Wednesday.
Pranay Varada, a Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD student who lives in Irving and won the Texas State Bee on April 1, made it to the top 10 to advance to the championship round. He competed against 54 state-level winners, ages 10-14, representing all 50 states, District of Columbia, Atlantic Territories, Pacific Territories and Department of Defense dependents schools.
As a top 10 finisher, Pranay wins $500. If he takes home the championship trophy, he'll receive a $50,000 college scholarship and lifetime membership in the National Geographic Society. Second place comes with a $25,000 scholarship, and the third-place winner receives $10,000.
Pranay is a seventh-grade student at DeWitt Perry Middle School in Carrollton. When he won the state bee, the soft-spoken student said he would keep reading Wikipedia and studying atlases to prepare for the championship. So far, that work has paid off.
The final rounds will start at 9 a.m. Wednesday at the National Geographic Society in Washington, D.C.
Viewers can watch the finals at 7 p.m. Friday on the National Geographic Channel and Nat Geo WILD.

Cute, Sexy, and Stupid Is No Way to Go Through KindergartenRebecca Odes
It's been a banner year for inappropriate girlswear. Padded "push up" bikini tops. Butt-perking shoes. Tops declaring the importance of beauty over brains. Now Halloween season is upon us, with girls' costume options ranging from (sexy) alien to (sexy) zombie. This trend is horrifying — but it's not really surprising.
Attractiveness has always been the prized virtue of females in our society. It's been a constant struggle for girls to get as much credit for being smart as being pretty. But this has been complicated by the triumph of the "bad girl" archetype. As explicit sexuality (i.e., porn) has become more accessible and accepted, its aesthetic has seeped into the mainstream. In the past, there were demure "girls next door" and prim "ice queens." Now, nearly every female celebrity works an overtly sexy look.
Little girls want to look like big girls — especially the ones they know are celebrated by the world at large. They are eager to define their identities according to what is expected and appreciated. Which is what makes the increasing flow of messages that oversexualize girls and undermine their intelligence so disturbing and so dangerous. When a mom on the TV show Dance Moms complained about her 9-year-old gyrating on stage in fishnets, the coach countered, "But she loves it!" How can a parent combat the flow of products AND a daughter's appetite for them?
First of all, parents can let merchandisers know that what they are doing is not okay. If you feel that girls are being inappropriately represented or targeted, or that marketers are preying on girls' desires to get on the sexy bandwagon, you now have the opportunity to voice your disgust without even leaving your seat. Send an email. Better yet, post publicly on Facebook and Twitter. Viral campaigns have successfully resulted in offensive products — like the JC Penney Shirt at the left — being removed from the market.
Sometimes when parents complain, they get hit with a libertarian defense: She's your daughter. It's your job to control her wardrobe. This is, of course, true. But it's also easier said than done. Sure, we can all be hard-asses and tell our daughters they have to wear what we want them to. We are the parents. We make the rules. But these are girl-children we are talking about, and although I know there are girl-children who don't rear up like king cobras when forbidden to express themselves with their choice of clothing, I can count the ones I personally know on one hand. And none of them live here.
Peggy Orenstein quotes Deb Tolman and Lyn Mikel Brown on the marketing of porn-inspired clothing to little girls:
"It's easy for moralizers to blame parents for saying yes and to blame girls for wanting and wearing. Placing the blame on individuals deflects attention from the rampant commercialization of childhood and the pornification of products marketers peddle to younger and younger children. Sure, we can say no. Many of us do. But we're up against corporations willing to invest billions to cultivate our child's desire for the right look and heighten their anxiety about not matching up."
I'm not saying I'm for government regulation of clothing. I do think that, in reality, we parents are ultimately responsible for teaching our kids values and showing them how our own values might differ from the ones being sold to them. But parents need support to fight the power.
Here are some resources to help parents provide empowering, age-appropriate messages to their daughters to counter the rash of sexy and stupid:

As we move past thirty years of co-education at Columbia College, Columbia College Women (CCW) is now embarking on a journey to build and enrich a community for alumnae and women students, faculty and friends. Our goals are to connect and empower women in order to create opportunities, relationships and impact at the College, University and the world. We welcome your participation and leadership in this next exciting phase for women at Columbia College!
Our Mission
Columbia College Women connects alumnae to the College, to one another and to women at large at Columbia University. We provide enriching experiences and benefits that support alumnae throughout their lives, in both personal and professional endeavors. We create an engaged and dynamic community that strengthens the voices and leadership of women at the institution.
The Columbia College Women's Board of Directors has four priorities for supporting our community, made up of all College women: programming, outreach, development and mentoring. We invite you to join in one of the below committees, or to simply be an ambassador, attendee and supporter in our efforts.
Programming Committee
The programming committee is responsible for developing and institutionalizing ongoing programming that will help to connect alumnae to alumnae and also to students and faculty, including expansion of our signature CCW Mentoring program. This includes Intellectual programming, social receptions, career networking and more.
Outreach Committee
The outreach committee seeks to grow the CCW network across the country and globe to increase participation from existing CCW members, untapped alumnae and students. Outreach will increase visibility and elevate the voice of our women across Columbia.
Development Committee
The development committee will foster a culture of giving among CC alumnae and students. They will identify opportunities for giving that resonate with women, strategies for motivating alumnae generosity and establish a broad pipeline of alumnae volunteers for development activities and leadership positions.
Mentoring Committee
CCW organizes a vibrant and successful mentoring program that matches alumnae mentors with current students. The mentoring program seeks to match students and alumnae with similar interests, provide a proposed template as to how the relationship can progress and provides forums for involvement. The committee is responsible for encouraging participation by marketing to alumnae and students, and supporting career oriented programming that will enrich mentoring relationships. Longer term, the committee seeks to expand mentoring to include matches for young alumnae.
