Man sentenced in pot-growing caseMarch 15,2013Man sentenced in pot-growing case
BENNINGTON An Arlington man received a deferred sentence after pleading guilty on Monday to a felony charge of growing marijuana at his home.
Shane Leland, 22, of Arlington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court in November on a felony count of cultivation of more than three marijuana plants. On Monday, he pleaded guilty to that charge and a new misdemeanor charge of possession of marijuana.
On the felony charge, Lelands sentence will be deferred for three years. If he has no further legal trouble in that time, the charge will be removed from his record. For the misdemeanor, Leland was sentenced to serve one to three months in prison but all of the time was suspended and he was placed on probation.
Leland was arrested after Neila Yardley, Lelands ex-girlfriend and the mother of his children, complained to police in September that Leland was growing marijuana at his home in Arlington where the children, who are 1 and 2 years old, were living. Yardley brought a marijuana plant to the Vermont State Police barracks in Shaftsbury to prove her claim, police said.
Yardley claimed Leland had grown and sold marijuana during their relationship when they lived together but during the sentencing hearing on Monday, prosecutors said there was no evidence Leland had ever grown marijuana for any purpose other than his own use.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

Greetings, yes indeed Tom, I remember the song and video well. It's unfortunate that the link posted in AWAD for Paul Hardcastle's '19' has to point to one of the many newer versions/mixes of the video.
The original is unsurpassed and is a much more impactful and to the point video. (Sorry, I have no link to give as it is apparently no longer available thanks to EMI's stinginess...best as I can tell anyway).
The "nuh-nuh-nuh-nineteen" is certainly earconic to the song but so is the uttered phrase "I wasn't really sure what was going on..." and it's the more telling.
Average age aside and 40 years beyond "'Nam" war has not gotten an iota better for any involved....hmm, maybe UAV pilots? I suppose most of them sleep okay at night...or then again maybe not :-\
Unrelated to the focus of this week's AWAD on the number 19, I actually watched the 1985 video within the past week (I long ago snagged my own copy before EMI protested to whoever and shut it down :-p ).

Thanks to thunderstorms in the Coastal Bend and up north and west in the Texas Hill Country, water levels are increasing by the day.
Some news reports indicate that Lake Corpus Christi might fill up in the next few days as locations north of Beeville's raw water intake structure report flooding.
Reports indicated that Three Rivers residents have been bracing for flooding at Tips RV Park and at other locations along the river toward Lake Corpus Christi.
Michael Lentz, the superintendent at Beeville's George P. Morrill Water Treatment Plant at Swinney Switch, said he expects to see the lake level to rise much higher.
A report from the Nueces River Authority showed the level at Lake Corpus Christi was at 39.9 percent of capacity as of Tuesday morning, Oct. 22.
That is well above the 17.6 percent level reported by the authority for this time in 2012.
The water level at the Choke Canyon Reservoir was still low, according to the authority. That lake was at 36.3 percent of capacity. That is down from the 51.4 percent of capacity for the same day in 2012.
The combined level of both lakes stood at 37.3 percent, still lower than the 42.2 percent reported on Oct. 22, 2012.
The Beeville Water Supply District's raw water intake structure at the headwaters of Lake Corpus Christi has risen above the openings that allow water to fill the pumping equipment.
Lentz said the water running down the river is carrying a lot of silt, but that will actually make it easier for the treatment plant to clean.
"We just have to add more chemicals," Lentz said.
The extended drought has prompted a number of Coastal Bend cities which depend on the lake for municipal water supplies to look at alternatives. Most of those cities, including Beeville, are looking at drilling wells to provide more sources of water.
The latest option being studied by the Beeville City Council has included the drilling of several wells into the shallow Evangeline aquifer, where water quality is good enough to require little treatment before being pumped into the city's water storage tanks.
The city has considered building a reverse osmosis filtering facility to remove higher levels of chlorides and dissolved solids from water taken from a deeper aquifer.
That aquifer, the Jasper, has more chlorides and solids, but it offers a greater amount of water than the Evangeline.
That water would require treatment by a reverse osmosis plant. Council members believe the money saved by reducing what Beeville has to pay the City of Corpus Christi for water taken from the lake would allow the city to accumulate enough money over several years to allow Beeville to be able to build an RO plant without having to borrow a significant amount of money.
Beeville voters defeated a city bid to sell $15.3 million in bonds to build an RO plant and drill wells in an election in May.
The City Council responded by appointing a 17-member committee to study alternative water development options and make a recommendation to the council.
Higher lake levels will give the council more time to study those options and make a decision.

I should know better as a former teacher. We started with the cereal boxes ... almost everything we did, my daughter reminded, "Mom, my teacher said ..."
My thoughts were bordering on laughter and frustration. I had to laugh at my "boss" but I was wondering about the directives of the teacher. I'd long forgotten where I'd buried that paper, and I'd only received it four days before the due date.
I have to think about things and roll them around in my empty cranium for a bit and this did not allow for that. In a quandary about the end product, wanting to fuss but knowing my child needed to be stretched, we cut, glued, and drew.
I felt like she'd gotten the hardest one, but I knew there really was nothing to it. I knew too that every other parent felt some level of frustration, and just how good were they expecting this to be? Did they want it parent perfect? Did they want it child completed? How much was I to help under the direction of my 6-year old boss?
Luckily, ours was a plain rectangular prism attached to a taller rectangular prism and very plain. (Did I mention it would be plain?)
How accurate did we need to be? If I'd only had more time ... I felt inadequate and didn't like it.
As my daughter pitched in to help, she began to add windows and such features. The two-tone building had taken on another dimension. It had pink, purple and green windows.
Funny, I hadn't noticed that in the pictures I'd taken. All the while, my chatterbox was talking about how bee-yoo-tee-full the project was turning out! "Mommy," she encouraged me, "it only matters that we tried our best."
Ah! I am still learning and my children are my teachers.
God doesn't expect us to be perfect. We berate ourselves for some of our efforts and feel the inadequacy seep into our being. More comes along and we continue to tear ourselves down thinking that we should be or could be and the further down we go.
They have it easier and more of whatever it is that we think is important. Stop! We are children of the Most High. We are created in His image. We are in the army of winners. We are heirs to a throne in Christ Jesus. We are winners.
No matter what is said or done around us, no matter what we face, we are simply here. We are part of the One who created the heavens and the earth. He conquered the grave. We've celebrated His victory over death. Born twice, die once - that is our lot.
Those who aren't will be born once and die twice. I heard that recently and I feel joy and sorrow- Joy for my brothers and sisters in Christ and sorrow for anyone who does not know Him as their Lord and Savior.
"Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Chris Jesus our Lord." – Romans 8:37-39
All I can say after that is praise God and amen!

North Central Report
Dr. Moore indicated we did get the draft response back from North Central. This can't be put on our Web as it is confidential information nor released to the public yet. He said if you would like a copy to let him know.
John Barnes and Dr. Moore attended a joint meeting last Thursday of the Higher Education Policy Commission and Board of Governors Chairs, Vice Chairs in Charleston.. Dr. Moore said one important point that was brought out is that Board of Governors should function and act as a corporate board. He said individual members do not represent any specific group. If you do it is a conflict of interest.
There has been a lot of discussion concerning the resolution about restricting what Bluefield State College can do in Beckley. This issue will be brought up at the Policy Commission meeting on May 17.
Another concern in Beckley is that a group of presidents (Marshall, Southern, West Virginia Tech, Concord College and Bluefield State) are attempting to build in Beckley a Higher Education Facility. They are in the process of beginning a process of looking at a corporation to run this facility. This facility could be completed in three years if the funding comes forth.

Before hiring a salesperson, there are personality dimensions and mental aptitudes that most employers test. These aspects determine a candidate's sales abilities; measure a candidate's cognitive ability and his or her innate sales skills.

The assessment is also meant to help a person understand his or her strengths and to identify areas in which he or she may need additional training.
You can do sales aptitude test free before going for an interview. It is normally made up of three questions that focus on self assessment, scenarios and interactive aspects. Self assessment questions indicate the degree or extent to which the question applies to you. Scenario questions test how you would most like respond in a similar situation while the interactive test consists of various questions and situations and should be answered as instructed.
The benefits associated with taking a sales aptitude test free are that you get to know your personality traits that are vital for accomplishment in sales and sales-related fields like customer service, marketing, sales management, and public relations.

well the ideal situation for me would be for the the Purple team to take the division and that the NL WC would not come from the NL West!
Since the Cards officially threw in the towel tonight against the Pirates, I guess we have to watch the pending 3 teams in the West pursue at least 3 games in the post season….
Emma — I'd be down for that. We know the Dodgers haven't a shot. I'd like to see the Pads do it too.
Peter — I guess you're right. But is there anything wrong with that? I welcome it at this point.
You're getting excited about the NL West? You must really be in denial about the Cardinals. LOL. I hope it's either the Padres or Giants who I can see a game in CA.
That was supposed to be SO I can see a game in CA. Still early for me and my brain.
Yep. Sad to say it, Jane, but it's true. All eyes on the NL West now. And no worries about the brain malfunction. It's pretty common around here. Just look at the stuff Allen writes. LOL.
I still remember the Rays being mentioned as comparable to the 2007 Rockies in 2008. But who would have thought a team in a city with one of the worst baggage claim sections would have a power hitter named CarGo?
Only in Denver.
Guess after that, someone will make me eat a plate of Rockie Mountain oysters…Not!
