The creek was over my bridge again last week. This time we had three inches of rain in about two hours and it was about 23 inches above the floor of the bridge. The bridge held again but it needs a bit of help this time. As soon as John gets through with his painting, I'll get him down here to do some minor repairs on it.
I consider myself a well-informed citizen. I read local papers, watch the news on TV and visit news-related sites on the Internet regularly. When I heard about allegations and fraud abuse at the Kentucky Association of Counties (KACo) recently, I paid little attention. "This doesn't affect my family or my community," I thought. I was wrong.
The upcoming fall and winter months may be particularly difficult for rural communities (as well as urban) across the nation. The persistence of an economic recession, combined with a potentially devastating flu season sets the stage for a time of unprecedented need. I strongly encourage communities nationwide to unite within their community and develop a cooperative strategy of survival in times of disaster. Take note of those in your community with special needs, such as the elderly, disabled and fatherless homes.
Writing is a solitary avocation. I'm reminded of the wonderful old movie where Jimmy Stewart rambles on and on to an invisible giant white rabbit named Harvey. Writing is like that – a one-sided conversation, with the author doing all the talking, while the reader, as invisible as Harvey, may or may not be listening or even be in the same room.
I would like to ask other Owen countians to join me in offering a word of praise and thanks to a remarkable group of youth and their leaders. I regret that I do not have a list of all their names.
I just finished reading the story in this week's paper about the magistrates rejecting the plan to spend $5,000 to clean the second floor of the old jail building but voted to spend the money to temporarily move the Sheriff's office and rent another building for $1,000 a month.
The building will still need to be cleaned and repaired to keep birds from getting in, so that money will still need to be spent, plus it will cost money for the move both ways not to mention the cost to set up the new building for the everyday business of the sheriff's office.
This letter is to express thanks to the staff of New Horizon Medical Center in Owenton and to a few other "Angels of Mercy" who helped me through a life-threatening situation. Last week, I was on a scheduled medical visit when the staff of New Horizon Medical Center discovered that, among a few other symptoms, I had lost a significant amount of blood. Not wanting to risk the time needed for an ambulance to take me to another hospital, they called for a helicopter to have me flown to St. Elizabeth in Florence.
I am so tired of seeing dogs run loose in Monterey and nothing being done about it. I hate to bring it up because it just causes negative attention to the town and causes hard feelings with neighbors/friends, but what's fair is fair.
When residents like me have had fence put in to abide by the rules, and then we have to sit and watch dogs run loose, it is just not right.

Eldred's music program feted
January 22, 2014 —
ELDRED, NY — Eldred Central School District has been nominated by two national organizations as being among the best schools in America for music education. The National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) selected the school for their award; and Grammy Signature Schools awarded Eldred a semifinalist place in its annual list for the second year running, making it one of 123 of the about 20,000 surveyed.
The district has only three music teachers: the music director Brian Nivison, voice and drama teacher Justin A. Glodich, and George Ross Mackenzie Elementary School music teacher Brittany Robinson. All are playing their part in making the music program a success, by going above and beyond, and being committed to staying in the community, said Superintendent Robert Dufour. He also mentioned the support from the community in general, for the music program is considered very important.
Nivison, who has been at Eldred for eight years, agreed. "I think it is because we have goals, and a lot has to do with commitment to be here, staying the course over the long haul. I've read it takes 10 to 15 years to build a good music program. Eight years really isn't a lot of time to continue to exceed expectations." He praised Eldred's community and parents as well for supporting the students and the music program by always coming to the concerts and backing their children.
"We submitted a survey," Nivison explained about the process, which is the same for both nominations. "We had Superintendent Dufour help us with the statistics about the school: the budgets that we have in the district, the facilities we have, the amount of time that we have for music instruction. We factor all those elements in for a district of our size, and we're doing a lot with only three of us teachers. All those factors allow us to get that recognition."
An extra requirement for the Grammy Signature School nomination final was to submit a recording, something Nivison feels is not well organized in Eldred— yet—but they are working on it. The finalists will be announced in mid-March, and they will receive a custom award and a monetary grant ranging from $1,000 up to $15,000 to benefit their music program.
The NAMM Foundation is in its 15th year of surveying schools and districts across the country. Eldred School District was among the 307 that received the nomination. "It's nice because we're not a large fish, to be able to be in that list with very large schools. How we're using the resources that we have is the deciding factor, maximizing the use of those resources," Nivison continued.

Boston is full of underachievers that are coined as 'young talent'. The only reason Ange pulled this of is because Mchail is a worse GM than he is. KG is being traded for peanuts regardless of what you guys are reading and watching. The Knicks could have offered a better deal. Think about it. Phoenix was ready to trade Amare for KG and Mchail didn't bite. This is a perfect example of the sun shining on a dog's ass.

Wanted: Junior Rangers for Yellowstone!
Yellowstone has a way of bringing out the child in all of us, but kids aged 4 and up have a program designed just for them. More than 150 national parks, including Yellowstone, have established Junior Ranger programs to introduce children to the natural wonders and fascinating histories of the parks. The programs are designed to provide participants with active fun, and the flexibility to explore the parks at their own pace and within the limits of their own time.
Age- and season-appropriate requirements to become a Junior Ranger include activities such as attending a ranger-led program, hiking on a park trail, and completing activities on various topics such as geothermal geology, wildlife, and fire ecology. Upon completion, participating children will be awarded a special Junior Ranger patch.
"Young people inspire us; we want to help them be vigorous and curious for life. It starts with family fun. National parks are amazing places where exercise is disguised as adventure, and we sneak in some learning too," National Park Service Director Jon Jarvis said.
Every day, all summer long, any child can become a Junior Ranger in Yellowstone! Just purchase the official Junior Ranger booklet for $3 and complete the program requirements. Stop by any Park visitor center or the Junior Ranger Station located at Madison Junction for details.
This Summer, Kids Can Go for the Gold!
How far can you jump?
As part of the Junior Ranger program, Yellowstone National Park offers the Wildlife Olympics, a fun and active learning activity designed primarily for children ages 5-12. Children test their skills and compare their abilities with those of animals in Yellowstone.
The following are scheduled dates and locations for Wildlife Olympics for the remainder of Summer 2010. Just stop by anytime between the hours listed, and stay as long or as short a time as your schedule allows. It's free, and all participants earn a "Let's Move Outside" sticker and a "Wild About Yellowstone" temporary tattoo!
Wednesday, July 28, 10 am—2 pm
Wednesday, August 11, 10 am—2 pm
Wednesday, August 25, 1—4 pm

LOS ANGELES, Cali. (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Every year, more than 300,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with blockages in their carotid arteries, which can lead to a dangerous stroke. Now, there's a new, safer way to clear these arteries.
Biff Yeager has been an actor for more than 40 years. It's a career he's passionate about.
"I just like to make people feel, I think," Biff told Ivanhoe.
But when Biff recently found out he had a blockage in his carotid arteries, he had a new role to play-informed patient.
"I knew that if an artery was blocked, you could have brain damage or a stroke," Biff said.
Traditionally, doctors repaired the problem with open surgery or a riskier stenting procedure performed through the groin.
"Doing that particular approach for stenting, carries twice the stroke risk as doing the open operation," Wesley Moore, MD, Professor and Chief Emeritus of the Vascular Surgery Division of Vascular Surgery at UCLA, told Ivanhoe.
Now, with the "silk road" technique, surgeons enter directly through the neck to access the carotid arteries. To prevent pieces of debris from traveling to the brain, they temporarily reverse blood flow.
"So, if there are any bits of debris present, instead of going toward the brain, or into the brain, they go through a circuit external to the body, trapped in a filter," Dr. Moore explained.
A stent is placed to keep the artery open. Then, blood flow resumes to its normal direction.
Biff stayed in the hospital just one night after his procedure, and now he can focus on landing that next part.
The new procedure doesn't require general anesthesia like the traditional, open surgery. In clinical trials, results show the procedure is as safe as the standard operation. There are about 19 centers in the United States participating in the clinical trial to test this new method.

55 since '55 Poster Night Featuring Vin Scully!
Two shutout by Dodger pitchers in the last two nights! and tonight is the 55 since '55 Poster Night featuring Vin Scully! I am very excited about getting this poster and about the festivities tonight!
Here is what is in stored as reported in the Daily News at http://www.dailynews.com/news/ci_15585735
The first 20,000 fans entering Dodger Stadium will receive a poster featuring the team's celebration and a picture of a young Vin Scully and the words of his call of the final out. Scully will also utter his familiar, "It's time for Dodger baseball," live from the broadcast booth to the crowd, a role usually filled by a celebrity or child.
Don Newcombe, who won a team-high 20 games for the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers, will throw out a ceremonial first pitch, with a home plate from Ebbets Field, the Dodgers' home from 1913-57, used for the ceremony.
In another nod to the past, organ music performed by Nancy Bea Hefley will be played almost exclusively for the entire game, according to Josh Rawitch, the team's vice president of communications.
Ralph Mauriello, a Brooklyn-born pitcher on the 1958 Dodgers, will sing the national anthem and "God Bless America."
Fans sitting in the My Town section will receive Dodgertown Brooklyn T- shirts, with the "55 after 55" patch the Dodgers have worn on their uniforms this season, and eat from an all-you-can-eat menu including Polish sausage sandwiches and soft pretzels.
the matchup: Santana against Padilla. Don't you love that 50's miles an hour curveball that Padilla throws! You can hear the stadium crowds when he throws it.
Let's Go Dodgers!
The 55 since '55 also reminded me of this wonderful post from Mike:
http://thebrooklyntrolleyblogger.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/03/thank-you-crzblues-dodger-blue-world.html Thank again Mike!

NO! Thank You Emma! I want to be there tonight!! I want a poster. Whaaaaah! I wanna go. It's just not fair I tell ya!
Buncha bums.
; )
I'll see what I can do if I can score you a poster. Wish you were here too watching your guys against my Bums!
Sounds like a classiv evening under the stars with the Boys in Blue.
The festivities sound amazing, and I wonder what a young Vin Scully looked like?
His voice definitely has not aged a day.
Rays Renegade
It was a beautiful night although we lost the game. There was a fire in the Ravine. My friend Lore took some beautiful shots of the helicopters dropping water there.
I'll post a picture of the 55 since 55 poster. I think is a beautiful poster of a picture of the Brooklyn Dodgers winning the W.S. and a pic of Vin Scully in the middle with the words "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Brooklyn Dodgers are the Champtions of the World"
thats a great promotion im sure all DOder fans were lining up for it. i'm excited to see the poster. In Florida we recived a Hanley Ramirez All-Star poster which was real cool but this will be an excellednt addition to your extensive memorobilla collection. frame it!
I went to sleep early last night and missed the game. When I woke up this morning and found out how we lost, giving up all those walks in the eight inning, I was glad I was asleep. Sound like it was a great night for Dodger history last night. I saw a picture of the '55 since '55 Poster. It looks pretty cool, I might try to buy one. There are plenty available on Ebay. While we are on the subject of Dodger history check this out: http://brooklyn.ny1.com/content/top_sto … yn–though. I think you find this interesting. Joe and I are going to see the exhibit together.
The link didn't work. I'll try again.
It worked this time. Check it out.
Yes, I am going to frame this poster!
Wow! What a great opportunity to go to the exhibit! I love that the local High School kids is helping with the exhibit. Thanks for sharing this! Let me see if I can send you a 55 since 55 poster Will
It's been a tough month for your guys and mine alike, you have the chance next week to get some ground back 1st on the Padres then on the Giants.. hope next week works out on the field for your guys..
am sure you had fun at the '55' night
Yes Peter, it has been a tough week but both the Mets and the Dodgers are not hitting right now but we won Sunday 1-0 and took the series!
On to the Padres starting Tuesday! Hope the Dodgers can continue their dominance of the NL West like they did in the first half of the season. Good luck with your Phillies.


text: Hello Ladies. I just started taking Fenugreek yesterday and today my 4month old little girl's poop was green! I know (through reading these awesome forums) that green poop can usually mean a foremilk/hindmilk imbalance... and she has been distracted these past few days....cutting nursing sessions short and what not.... but before I go nursing in a dark room I was just wondering if Fenugreek could be effecting her poop color? Thoughts? Experience?

This is in response to the article in Modern Healthcare By Andis Robeznieks: "Under their influence, Washington insiders hold sway over our '100 Most Influential' ranking, but real change seems to be coming from elsewhere."
"The Politics of Privacy" is one of four key areas in Modern Healthcare's story about the "100 Most Influential People in Healthcare" in 2011. Privacy was highlighted because the expectation to control personal health data is a truly bipartisan, trans-partisan issue.
The historic first-ever summit on the future of health privacy co-sponsored by Patient Privacy Rights (PPR) and the UT LBJ School in June was highlighted (see www.healthprivacysummit.org to watch videos of the sessions).
The story recognizes the crucial importance of PPR's leadership on building patients' rights to control use of the most sensitive personal information into the healthcare system up front, so patients will use and trust health IT systems and data exchanges.
Unfortunately, many of the new consumer privacy protections the Obama Administration supported in the stimulus bill (HITECH) are being implemented by federal agencies in ways that do not comply with HITECH and other existing federal regulations.
If industry and key government rule makers continue to ignore the American people's expectations for control over the use of sensitive personal health data, the stimulus billions will be wasted on systems that can't be trusted and the tremendous potential benefits health IT can bring to treatment and research may never be realized.

Being that Janis Sedols and Madde Strohmann were married in 1865, I started combing through the Valtaiki church books from 1865 onwards in search of their children. Besides Ieva in 1869, they also had Janis in 1871. Janis was born at the same farm as his sister Ieva – Jaunzemji in Berghof. His godparents were Janis Sedols, Anne Strohmann and Martins Jekabsons.
(Side note: since the newborn Janis Sedols is the son of Janis Sedols, and a godparent is also named Janis Sedols, this tells me that there was likely at least one other related Sedols family at the time. The godparent Janis is a "jungen" (youth or bachelor) and since he shares the same name as the father Janis he wouldn't be his brother – my best guess is that the father Janis does have a brother, and godparent Janis is a nephew. Of course, this is speculation until I can prove! Just another tidbit a baptismal record can give you.)
But that was all that I found, which is not typical of the time period! Did the family move? There are Sedols in Embute parish as well, but I haven't seen any Janis and Madde. I also came across this interesting baptismal record:
I know it's hard to read, but what it states is that on Berghof estate, Buhdeneek farm (I still haven't found Buhdeneek's contemporary name), jungen (bachelor) Simon Konrad and madchen(maiden) Madde Strohmann birthed and baptised an illegitimate daughter named Lawihse. Lawihse was born on May 26, 1865 and was bapisted June 6, 1865 at Valtaiki. Lawihse's godparents were Lawihse Kuhning, madchen, Kristoph Strohmann, jungen and Lihse (Strohmann?).
Is this the same Madde Strohmann?? If it's true, Madde and Janis Sedols were married May 16, 1865. 10 days before this child's birth. It sounds a little soap opera, but there are not that many Strohmanns or Sedols (or Konrads, on that note) in the area. The father's name is very light, too… was it pencilled in later on? More often than not, for other illegitimate children's baptismal records I've found, no father is listed, just the mother. Did someone stand in as the father? Was it actually Janis Sedols' child, conceived before marriage? Maybe another Madde Strohmann all together…
Interesting, anyways. Another puzzle to solve!

- Long Synopsis:
- I was six or seven years old and there was a girl living next door named Peggy. She was a year older than me and a lot stronger and we were wrestling and she held me down& All of a sudden it seemed there was something about girls that wasn't all bad. I don't know what it was but I should have know that this feeling with Peggy Ollendorfer meant that down the road, later, I was in for a big surprise. Afterward, when I was a little older, if you'd asked me what the surprise was like, I'd have said it was about like getting hit by a train.

Brad Keselowski, driver of the Penske Racing No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS), finished sixth in the AdvoCare 500 – the second-to-last race in the 2012 Chase for the Championship – at Phoenix International Raceway (PIR) on Sunday afternoon. Keselowski looked to have a car capable of contending for the race win, but was unable to make a late rally as the event ended with a controversial finish.
With the result, however, Keselowski reclaimed the series championship lead heading into next weekend's season finale. Keselowski now holds a 20-point advantage over Jimmie Johnson and the No. 48 car team in the Chase for the Championship standings entering next weekend's race at Homestead-Miami Speedway as Johnson finished in the 32nd position on Sunday. Keselowski can clinch his first NSCS championship – and the first for Penske Racing – with a 15th-place result or better at Homestead.
Keselowski began Sunday's race, scheduled for 312 laps, from the 14th position after posting a time of 26.350 seconds, or 136.622 miles per hour, around the one-mile PIR oval during the Friday afternoon qualifying session. This starting position placed him in the unfavorable outside line to start the race and, as a result, he dropped several spots before settling into the 16th position by the third lap. Keselowski quickly began to turn top-five lap times as he made his way through the field before the first caution flag of the day was displayed at lap 17. Crew chief Paul Wolfe called his driver down pit road for left-side tires and fuel at lap 18. Keselowski restarted the race from the 21st position on lap 21 as many competitors elected not to make their way to pit road.
Following the two-tire pit stop, Keselowski radioed that the handling on the Miller Lite Dodge was loose on corner entry and tight just before the center of the turns, but this didn't prevent him from turning the fastest laps of anyone from laps 42-47. This speed resulted in Keselowski making his way into the top 10 before a lap 52 caution flag brought him down pit road for the second time on the day. This time Wolfe called for a four-tire stop and Keselowski returned to the action in the 12th position at lap 60.
During the third run of the day, Keselowski began to show the strength of the Miller Lite machine. Despite a tight-handling condition on the car, he was able to race his way into the top five at lap 126. Keselowski led his first lap of the race at lap 130 as green-flag pit stops began for the field. He made his stop one lap later for more four-tire service. As the pit stops cycled through, Keselowski emerged running in the fifth position.
As the race moved past the 200-lap mark, Keselowski had moved into second-place and was closing in on the race leader, Kyle Busch. After a multi-lap battle, Keselowski returned to the top spot at lap 233. At lap 235, series leader Johnson suffered a tire issue and made heavy contact with the outside wall to change the shape of the championship battle. Focused on securing the best finish possible, Keselowski made another visit to pit road under this caution period as Wolfe called for another routine four-tire and fuel pit stop. Keselowski returned to the track in the third position, but he was unable to make his way back to the lead for the rest of the event.
Over the final laps of the race, Keselowski did an outstanding job in managing his tires as several other drivers suffered issues on the recently-repaved PIR surface. On what was supposed to be the penultimate lap of the race, Keselowski had a close call on lap 311 when Jeff Gordon wrecked Clint Bowyer just a few feet in front of the Miller Lite Dodge. Following a lengthy red-flag period, the race resumed at lap 318 with Keselowski in the fifth position. An ensuing green-white-checkered flag finish featured another multi-car incident in overtime – one that did result in some damage to the Miller Lite Dodge – but Keselowski was able to make his way through to secure the sixth-place finish.
Penske Racing teammate, Sam Hornish Jr., finished 31st in Sunday's AdvoCare 500.
"We survived and I'm proud of everyone on the Miller Lite team for that," said Keselowski. "We had a great car and things just didn't quite play to our strengths, but that's okay. I felt very lucky to make it through all the cars today. Obviously there are no guarantees. We could go to Homestead and have the same problem (as Johnson) and Jimmie (Johnson) takes the point lead back over. No guarantees, but very proud to have that points lead heading into next week."

Dordt College News
Dordt College celebrates nursing student accomplishments
December 18, 2013
Two Dordt College nursing students completed their bachelor of science in nursing (B.S.N.) degree this semester. Sarah Byron of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Candice Bui of Sioux Center, Iowa, participated in the end-of-semester pinning ceremony at the college on Tuesday, December 17. Both students had previously earned their associate of science in nursing (A.S.N) degrees through a consortium agreement with St. Luke's College in Sioux City, Iowa.
"In addition to an associate degree in nursing, these B.S.N. graduates have completed an additional 24 credit hours of upper division nursing courses along with 135 community clinical hours. They are well prepared to enter the nursing workforce in community, hospital, or clinic settings," said Pam Hulstein, Ph.D., C.N.M., Dordt College professor of nursing.
Ten Dordt College nursing students recently completed their consortium semesters with St. Luke's. These students were awarded their A.S.N. degrees at St. Luke's winter commencement ceremony on December 13.
Dordt College/St. Luke's A.S.N. graduates include:
- Alexa Rae Altena of Sioux Center, Iowa
- Kari Ann Groeneweg (Magna Cum Laude) of Sioux Center, Iowa
- Katelyn Ann Lieuwen of Platte, South Dakota
- Rachelle Marie Marcus of Renville, Minnesota
- Joshua Ryan Peterson of Sergeant Bluff, Iowa
- Kaylee Grace Schmeling of Milford, Iowa
- Ciarra Anne Schmitt of Parker, Colorado
- Sarah Beth Van Den Berg of Rock Valley, Iowa
- Rachel Mae VanKempen (Cum Laude) of Jenison, Michigan
- Kevin Nicolas Vermeer of Lansing, Illinois
The consortium agreement allows students to be simultaneously enrolled at both St. Luke's and Dordt College. Dordt's unique nursing program is designed so that students typically become registered nurses in their third year, after completing more than 800 hours of clinical work. Students can complete a fourth year at Dordt to earn their B.S.N. Nursing is one of the five largest majors at Dordt College. To learn more, visit www.dordt.edu/academics/programs/nursing.

This wonderful set, consisting of just over 200 cards, is considered one of the desirable pre-war issues in the hobby. With an assortment of stars, variations and backs, the demand for this set has slowly increased year in and year out. Included are highly desirable examples of Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Cy Young, Tris Speaker, and Christy Mathewson to name a few. Due to the difficulty in obtaining high-quality examples (the gold borders are extremely susceptible to chipping and edge wear), these examples often sell for a premium, above examples in the incredibly popular T-206 set. The T-205 cards are arguably the best looking baseball cards from the first half of the 20th Century and perhaps ever. On the reverse of the cards, different cigarette advertisers can be found with Drum, Hindu, and Broad Leaf examples sometimes selling for a premium. This is one of the toughest sets to complete on the PSA Set Registry.
Notes: This set is a work in progress. As new varieties are graded, they may be added to the set.

|Tight junction - Homo sapiens (human)
|Epithelial tight junctions (TJs) are composed of at least three types of transmembrane protein -occludin, claudin and junctional adhesion molecules (JAMs)- and a cytoplasmic 'plaque' consisting of many different proteins that form large complexes. The transmembrane proteins mediate cell adhesion and are thought to constitute the intramembrane and paracellular diffusion barriers. The cytoplasmic 'plaque' contains three major multi-protein complexes consisting largely of scaffolding proteins, the ZO protein complex, the CRB3-Pals1-PATJ complex and the PAR-3-aPKC-PAR-6 complex. The ZO protein complex appears to organize the transmembrane proteins and couple them to other cytoplasmic proteins and to actin microfilaments. Two evolutionarily conserved protein complexes, the CRB3 and PAR complexes are involved in the establishment and maintenance of epithelial cell polarity. Besides these three protein complexes which seem to be constitutively associated at TJs, a number of proteins with different functions has been identified at TJs. These include additional scaffolding proteins like MUPP1 and MAGI-1, adaptor proteins, transcription regulators and RNA processing factors, regulatory proteins like small GTPases and G-proteins, kinases and phosphatases, and heat shock proteins. These are proposed to be involved in junction assembly, barrier regulation, gene transcription, and perhaps other, presently undefined pathways.

text: Later last week, we kind of came to the conclusion that I have too much milk. So I started block feeding my lo. I am concerned that with block feeding as well as her putting more time in b/w feedings that I will lose my supply. Also, I am starting to work out in the mornings (from about 8:30 am to 10:30 am). Is this going to have an effect on my supply as well? I won't be pumping or anything. Lo is fed at 7am first. I am worried that all this time will destroy my supply.

A Portales High School teacher fired on May 6 was reinstated by Portales Schools Superintendent James Holloway on Tuesday morning.
The decision came 13 days after Kay Jilek presented her case to the school board at a meeting. She told the board she was not given a reason for her termination by PHS Principal Melvin Nusser, though she suspected it had something to do with a failing grade she gave a student caught cheating.
"I'm happy to be back at Portales High," Jilek said on Tuesday.
Nusser has declined to discuss the issue. He said only Holloway can comment on personnel matters.
Holloway said he met with Nusser and Jilek over the past few days regarding the dismissal.
"I reviewed the material Mrs. Jilek presented to the school board and looked at the situation," Holloway said. "I decided to reinstate her and she will be teaching at the high school."
Holloway said he is unsure whether Jilek will return as math teacher and junior varsity volleyball coach, her previous positions. He said scheduling has not been completed by Nusser for the school semesters.
Holloway said he could not go into further detail over the reason for Jilek's termination because it is a personnel issue.
Jilek made her presentation before the school board during the public comment session on June 15.
Holloway said the decision to reinstate Jilek was his.
"The only personnel decision they (board members) have is the firing and hiring of the superintendent," Holloway said.
Jilek told board members she believed Nusser fired her because she gave a student close to Nusser a zero for cheating. She also said she wrote an e-mail seeking change at the school.
"I was criticized for stating solutions," Jilek told the board. "I've been branded a bad teacher."
Jilek taught math for two years at the high school and also taught 23 years at the Portales Junior High.
Holloway said allegations made by Jilek against Nusser were not addressed when he considered reinstatement.
"We simply looked at the process (for termination) and it was not followed. I made the decision based on the steps of our evaluations."
Holloway said he did talk with Nusser and Jilek about working together again.
"That was discussed," Holloway said. "I am satisfied that we can move on. I would not have made the decision if I didn't feel it was right. Mrs. Jilek and Mr. Nusser are adults and they can work past that."
Jilek agreed.
"I'm definitely ready to put everything behind and move on. I believe we can work together," she said.

Waterbury solar year rises Monday
WATERBURY A Winooski Street residence that began using solar technology last year will receive a visit from the governor next week to help showcase local efforts toward energy efficiency.
Waterbury Local Action Energy Partnership on Monday is recognizing its Waterbury/Duxbury Solar Year, a year in which the amount of solar energy generated doubled for both towns. Gov. Peter Shumlin will speak at the event.
The residence is the home of the Rev. Peter Plagge, minister of the Waterbury Congregational Church, United Church of Christ, and his wife, Erin Mooney, a special education teacher at U-32.
Plagge and his family had about a dozen solar panels installed on their roof last spring, and they have generated solar energy since September, he said.
The home used Waterbury-based solar business SunCommon, so the family did not need up-front costs, Plagge said.
Were thrilled that our work to educate Waterbury and Duxbury residents about solar and help connect them to local installers has paid off, said Duncan McDougall, Waterbury LEAP board chairman, in a news release.
Other speakers will include McDougall; Jessica Edgerly Walsh, lead organizer at SunCommon; state Rep. Rebecca Ellis, D-Waterbury; and Jamison Ervin, a Waterbury LEAP board member.
The home is not off the grid yet, but eventually it will generate enough credit from Green Mountain Power that the family will just be making lease payments for the solar technology, Plagge said. The lease payment is equivalent to the homes current GMP electricity bill, he said.
The event will focus on the homes solar monitoring system as well as other homes that have done similar installation in Waterbury and Duxbury.
The diversity of families and houses captured in this photo display really shows that solar is for everyone, Ervin said in a news release.
Ervin wrote in an email that if six more homes in Duxbury obtain solar installations, the town will have the highest number of residential solar setups installed per capita in the state.
The organizations Solar Year began in April, and the goal of doubling the amount of energy produced by solar was met this month, Ervin said.
LEAP will conclude its Solar Year at its energy fair April 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Crossett Brook Middle School.

|Early Morning "Glass"
Courtesy of JGH & Roots'n'Leaves Archives
JGH's note: I first heard this morning devotional at Camp Esther Applegate on Lake of the Woods when I was a 10 year-old camper. At home we never sang songs or said grace at meals, so this was a new experience for me. I thought these were the most beautiful words I had ever heard, and that is still so, some 6o years later. To me this camp song is closely tied to Lake of the Woods, water skiing and my sense of God and Nature. I never skied the early morning "glass" without hearing this song chime in my head.

General Discussion
X-linked lymphoproliferative (XLP) syndrome is an extremely rare inherited (primary) immunodeficiency disorder characterized by a defective immune system that is powerfully responsive to infection with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). This virus is common among the general population and is relatively well-known because it is the cause of infectious mononucleosis (IM), usually with no long-lasting effects. However, in individuals with XLP, exposure to EBV may result in severe, life-threatening fulminant hepatitis; abnormally low levels of antibodies in the blood and body secretions (hypogammaglobulinemia), resulting in increased susceptibility to various infections; malignancies of certain types of lymphoid tissue (B-cell lymphomas); and/or other abnormalities. The range of symptoms and findings associated with XLP may vary considerably from case to case. In addition, the range of effects may change in an affected individual over time. In most cases, individuals with XLP experience an onset of symptoms anytime from ages about 6 months to 10 years of age.

Dear Big People,
Please don't throw trash out the window of your cars or let it blow off the back of your trucks.
Please don't let your balloons go because it goes in our rivers and hurts our ducks and fishes. It makes their tummies sick and they can die.
Protect our water. Don't waste it. Use it again.
When you finish your water, juice, soda or milk, recycle the boxes and bottles.
Use only one paper towel and please, write on both sides of the paper. This will save our trees.
Save our animals and protect our insects. If you don't bother them, they will not hurt you.
It is mine and your responsibility to keep our world clean.
Everyone needs to plant trees, flowers and gardens for food for us and homes for the animals.
Please re-do our water so it's clean and safe, so we can drink it, take baths in it and swim in it.
Please don't pop our bubble that keeps the sun from burning us. Stop the yucky things that go up in the air.
Travel in groups. You can walk with an old person and ride your bike with a bigger friend more. Stay safe.
Please don't waste our water! You can clean the water and let us have it again.
Don't leave the light on. Please turn it off when not using it.
Ask family and friends to help pick up trash everywhere anywhere you go.
When taking a bath, only use as much water as needed. Short showers can clean us. Don't let the water run.
Don't spill oil, paint or gas on our ground. It will make our dirt nasty, yucky, smelly and make our plants, grass and trees die. Don't let our plants die.
Don't leave the water running, turn it off.
Recycle the water you use when you use a lot.
This is our small world. Please save it for us.
Thank you, students from It's A Small World Nursery School.

What is in this article?:
- Citrus breakthrough may thwart greening
- Easier puzzle to solve
• The publication of the sweet orange and tangerine genomes will accelerate the discovery of innovative solutions to a myriad of pest and disease problems that threaten citrus production.
• Florida citrus industry officials said they were thrilled, and relieved, by the news.
A University of Florida-led group of international scientists has assembled the genome sequences for two citrus varieties — sweet orange and Clementine mandarin — marking a first for citrus.
The Clementine mandarin sequence is the higher quality of the two, but both are expected to help scientists unravel the secrets behind citrus diseases such as greening, a deadly threat to the state's $9 billion citrus industry, as well as aiding those working to improve fruit flavor and quality.
Florida citrus industry officials said they were thrilled, and relieved, by the news.
"The publication of the sweet orange and tangerine genomes will accelerate the discovery of innovative solutions to a myriad of pest and disease problems that threaten citrus production," said Dan Gunter, chief operating officer of the Citrus Research and Development Foundation Inc.
Michael W. Sparks, executive vice-president and CEO of Florida Citrus Mutual, a trade organization comprised of 8,000 members, called genomics "the future of not only Florida citrus, but the entire global citrus industry."
"It is exciting to see breakthroughs such as the release of these (genome) assemblies and I am confident the talented scientists working on this project will eventually propagate a citrus cultivar that withstands disease pressure and allows consumers worldwide to continue enjoying nutritious citrus products," he said.
The genome sequences, the result of at least four years' worth of study and $3.5 million invested by several countries, were announced at the International Plant and Animal Genome Conference in San Diego.
The announcement comes just weeks after a similar announcement that another international team, led by UF Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences and Virginia Tech scientists, had published the DNA sequence for the strawberry.
The Clementine mandarin genome came from a haploid, meaning it has a single set of chromosomes. The scientists used a more detailed method of obtaining its genome sequence, which was more expensive, but provides longer strings of DNA, said UF's Fred Gmitter, a horticultural sciences professor and Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences member who led the effort.

The suspects, both of whom were 21 years old when taken into custody last year, face from five to 99 years or life in prison if convicted of the first degree felony charges.
Each also could be fined $10,000.
The suspects included Joe Angel Arroyos, who was arrested in a raid on a home in the 800 block of West Huntington Street nine months ago, and Adrian Cortez, who was in custody in Jackson County on an unrelated charge when Beeville Police Department detectives ordered him held for them on the robbery charge.
The men were identified as the two home invaders who slipped into a residence on South St. Mary's Street and awoke a teenager sleeping on the first floor.
Detective Art Gamez said at the time of the arrest that the men carried baseball bats apparently taken from a garage on the property.
The men ordered the teen to disconnect a computer, and when he hesitated, he was assaulted by at least one of the intruders.
The teen's grandparents were asleep on the second floor at the time and were awakened by noises coming from the first floor.
The grandmother went first to check on the noise, thinking it might be the grandson watching television.
The teen reportedly warned his grandmother not to interfere when she noticed the two strangers in the house. But by that time, the grandfather also had gone downstairs, and the two intruders fled the scene.
The indictment said the incident took place on or about June 10, but police reported that it happened on June 16.
Both suspects were indicted for striking the teenager during the home invasion, and the bats were described as deadly weapons.
District Judge Starr Bauer set Arroyos' bond at $25,000 and Cortez's bond at $50,000.
Others indicted last Thursday included:
•Porfirio Medellin, III in a two-count indictment on charges of sexual assault and indecency by contact.
Both charges are second degree felonies. If convicted, the suspect could be sentenced to 20 years in prison and fined $10,000.
According to BPD officers, the suspect made sexual contact with a girl under the age of 17 on March 27, 2011.
Bond was $50,000.
•Alfonso Alaniz Ramos on a charge of evading arrest with a vehicle, enhanced to habitual.
Highway Patrol Trooper Aaron Frazier arrested the suspect following an incident on Aug. 24, 2012, after Ramos allegedly fled from him as he was trying to detain him.
The charge was enhanced because Ramos had previous felony convictions on Aug. 27, 1987, on a charge of burglary of a building and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, threat, on July 30, 1992. Both convictions were in Karnes County.
Bond was $5,000.
•Eloy Benavides Martinez on a charge of possession of a controlled substance, between one and four grams, a third degree felony.
The defendant faces up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted.
According to a BPD patrolman, Martinez had methamphetamine in his possession on or about May 25, 2012.
Bond was $15,000.
•Marcus Leonard Ruiz, also known as Marcus Leanard Ruiz, on a charge of driving while intoxicated, third or more.
The charge is a third degree felony.
Highway Patrol Trooper Marvin Baker took Ruiz into custody on the charge on March 2, 2012. He had previous DWI convictions on Nov. 23, 2005, and Nov. 17, 2011, both in Bee County.
Bond was $7,000 with a requirement that he have an interlock device installed on his vehicle.
•Rosalinda Herrera Contreras on a charge of DWI, third or more.
The charge is a third degree felony.
According to Trooper Kolton Kendall, Contreras was driving while intoxicated on Jan. 12. She had previous DWI convictions on Dec. 29, 2003, in Travis County and June 19, 2011, in Bee County.
Bond was $1,000 with interlock conditions.
•Derrick Mata on a charge of possession of a controlled substance, cocaine, less than one gram.
The charge is a state jail felony. If convicted, Mata could be sentenced to up to two years in a state jail facility and fined $10,000.
BPD Detective Chris Vasquez alleged that the defendant had the drug on June 1, 2012.
Bond was $2,500.

- Title
- Postcorrelation ripple removal and radio frequency interference rejection for Parkes Telescope survey data
- Author(s)
- Barnes, D. G.; Briggs, F. H.; Calabretta, M. R.
- Abstract
- The 21 cm multibeam receiver on the Parkes telescope has been used for many neutral hydrogen (HI) imaging projects, for example, the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) and the Southern Galactic Plane Survey. In many experiments to date, basic radio frequency interference (RFI) rejection has been accomplished on a per-feed basis, using the median statistic throughout the processing, which eliminates outliers in a nonparametric fashion at the expense of increased statistical noise. The classic 21 cm baseline ripple problem has been largely ignored, except for the subtraction of a coarse template which is calculated independently of feed, time, telescope elevation, and receiver rotation. The ripple is especially strong during the daytime, when the Sun acts as a broadband RFI noise source. Here we report on new techniques that we are developing, for application to raw, postcorrelation multibeam data, which handle RFI rejection and ripple suppression in more sophisticated ways. RFI can be identified by the presence of coincident outliers on multiple feeds, by sharp increases or decreases in flux time series that are inconsistent with a beam-smeared sky, and by the presence of highly polarized flux. We present our progress with this approach and highlight some remaining difficulties. We also present a novel technique for modeling the variation during telescope scans of 21 cm baseline ripple caused by stray continuum radiation undergoing multiple reflections in the telescope cavity and demonstrate its application to HIPASS data; this may increase the usefulness of daytime spectral line observing.

Has anyone had any experience with this? DS has already had his frenulum snipped all the way. This morning our LC said she thinks he has a more severe case of tongue tie, and he made need a transverse-vertical frenuloplasty. That's a surgery that requires general anesthesia! We have an appointment tomorrow morning with our pedi to see what he thinks. Our LC said they don't usually perform these surgeries until after 1 year, and until then breastfeeding will continue to be painful for me.
I'm looking for stories. Any experiences here?

Migrant Education Program - Overview
Program Purpose
The Migrant Education Program (MEP) is a federally funded program authorized under Title I, Part C, of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB).
The purpose of the MEP is to:
- Support high-quality and comprehensive educational programs for migrant children in order to reduce the educational disruption and other problems that result from repeated moves;
- Ensure that migrant children who move among the states are not penalized in any manner by disparities among the states in curriculum, graduation requirements, and state academic content and student academic achievement standards;
- Ensure that migrant children are provided with appropriate educational services (including supportive services) that address their special needs in a coordinated and efficient manner;
- Ensure that migrant children receive full and appropriate opportunities to meet the same challenging state academic content and student academic achievement standards that all children are expected to meet;
- Design programs to help migrant children overcome educational disruption, cultural and language barriers, social isolation, various health-related problems, and other factors that inhibit their ability to do well in school, and to prepare them to make a successful transition to postsecondary education or employment; and
- Ensure that migrant children benefit from state and local systemic reforms
Eligible Children
Trained recruiters interview families to determine each child's eligibility for the Migrant Education Program. To qualify for the program a migrant child must have moved within the last three years across state or school district lines with a parent or guardian or on his/her own to obtain qualifying temporary or seasonal work in agriculture or fishing. Qualifying work must be directly related to (1) planting, harvesting or processing of crops, dairy products, poultry or livestock or (2) catching or processing of fish or shellfish. Children and youth through the age of 21 who have not graduated from high school may be eligible.
Priority for Services
Eligible migrant children must receive priority for service if they:
- have interrupted schooling related to their migrant lifestyle during the regular school year and
- are failing or at risk of failing to meeting state content and performance standards
Funds may be used for supplemental educational and ancillary services for migrant children including preschool programs, summer school, tutorial support during the regular school year, and secondary services to help high school students graduate. Other activities include identification and recruitment of students, student record exchange and information transfer with other states, health services, parent involvement initiatives and professional development for school personnel.

The state Department of Health is suspending the disposal of the embargoed OxyELITE Pro products in Hawaii.
On Monday, health officials announced its intention to seize and destroy the products. Shortly thereafter, the Department of the Attorney General received a written request from a local attorney asking that health officials suspend the planned disposal and secure the products for potential use as evidence in future litigation.
The product has been voluntarily recalled by its maker USPlabs.
The attorney general instructed the health department to suspend the disposal and thereafter took temporary possession of the products. While the attorney general evaluates this request, the products will be stored in a secure location.
On Monday, retailers holding embargoed OxyELITE Pro products voluntarily surrendered their products to health inspectors with the understanding that the product would be destroyed.
That planned destruction is now on hold and retailers are being notified of this change. Retailers with questions about the seized products may call Anne Lopez, Special Assistant to the Attorney General, at (808) 587-1284 for more information.

Does Steve Ballmer Even Know Microsoft Makes Xbox?
In the near-term, Tim Cook benefits from a fantastic lack of competition .
Even if you're a Mac person, on some level, you've got to want to see Microsoft (MSFT) succeed. It's easy to make fun of Steve Ballmer , but he seems like a lovable guy. And, as bad as Microsoft looks, it's actually on the cusp of greatness. It just needs better marketing.
Over the weekend, I was at a neighbor's house. Our kids were playing with the Xbox. This family just got one a few weeks ago. It's an incredible device. Best gaming system I've ever seen. In fact, I used to own one. It was even pretty solid a few years ago. It's about as cutting edge as it gets in the living room.
If Microsoft can manage to bring pieces of its innovative pipeline to market , it will keep getting better.
Microsoft should not stumble here. In fact, it has a clear edge over Apple -- based on what we know and can see -- in the living room. It's about more than first-mover advantage; Microsoft has already, in many households, closed the gap between the gaming experience and everything else a streaming player can do for you. It's nowhere near this level with its mobile ecosystem, which is a 100-to-one long shot at best.
Xbox is not merely a pimply-faced gamer's toy; it's a whole house, whole family entertainment system that outsells, by a wide margin, everything else like it. People know this. However, I'm not sure they know that Microsoft is the company that produces such a cool device.
My kid and my friend's kids have no idea, yet they can speak intelligently -- with palpable excitement -- about several generations of Apple products.
Samsung made one of our television sets; Sony (SNE) the other. A few years ago we bought a General Electric (GE) refrigerator. My kid loves the TVs and is always in the fridge, but she really has no clue who makes them. Nor does she care.
There's no cool factor. No sex appeal. There's no association between the brand and the product ... between the brand and the user experience or the practical role the product plays in my kid's life. No link whatsoever. Clearly, that's not the case with Apple.
Xbox is Xbox. Kids think Xbox and it stops there, whereas when they think of iPod, iPhone and iPad, Apple -- from the logo to Steve Jobs -- comes to mind. For goodness sake, they read about Steve Jobs in school.
