I injured my chest and saw my doctor, but I could not afford the medication. Both cars were repaired by the insurance company. I just received a call from our insurance agent and she said the other party is offering me $400 to settle. The collision report indicated it was an equal fault. This sounds like the other party is admitting their fault. I told the agent that I needed to discuss this with my husband and she told me regardless of who I spoke to, she was sending the formal offer to me in the mail, and that I needed to sign and return it. My husband and I think we might need legal representation.
You should obtain needed medical care and treatment immediately and follow the doctor's advice. Do not give any statement to the adverse party or insurance company nor grant them access to any medical records. Photograph the injuries and the damage done to any property. Contact a personal injury attorney in your area as soon as possible so that you can protect your rights. You may also find it helpful to review the Legal Guides I have published on Avvo.com dealing with many of the issues you are now facing.

Memory Going Global: The Jewish Museum and Holocaust Centre in Cape Town
Association for Jewish Studies (AJS), Spring 2010
The author reflects on the Jewish Museum and Holocaust Centre in Cape Town, South Africa and its relation to the Jewish past and present in South Africa. The museum's exhibit reflects a manifestation of the politics of historical remembrance, including a film about Nelson Mandela along with a focus on Jewish activists' involvement in the struggle against apartheid. However, the piece notes that there is no reflection from the Jewish community on past collaboration with the Apartheid regime and the history of bilateral relations between Israel and the apartheid regime. The piece concludes by asserting that the Holocaust Centre of Cape Town reflects the globalization of Holocaust memory and its position within human history.

WLAN Performance parameters - configure AP or Client?
Tried googling. Couldn't find it. Maybe that's just me though - someone smarter than me, please try.
If I wanna change certain WLAN performance parameters say, RTS threshold or fragmentation, do I wanna fuck around with the AP or with the Client PC's (all of them?!?!) or Both?
Also, how do I find out if I have a connection going on.. if these parameters are what I want them to be?
Could the AP and the client be communicating with each other while both of them using different parameters? So I'd need to configure both of them….
Would make sense now that I think about it…
But still.. ???

2013: Lowest police deaths by firearms since 1887
Officers attribute better training
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The number of law enforcement officers killed by firearms in 2013 has dropped to the lowest level since the 1800s. That's according to a new report from the non-profit National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.
111 law enforcement officers have been killed in the line of duty this year. 33 officers were killed by firearms this year in the U.S. It's the lowest number since 1887.
"That's absolutely good news," said Officer Bob Laney.
The last Colorado Springs police officer killed by a firearm was Kenneth C. Jordan on December 5, 2006.
"We haven't dealt with any officer line of duty deaths this year for our department," said Sgt. Mike Roy.
The job has changed significantly since the 19th Century.
"All of our officers are wearing bullet-proof vests. Lot of agencies don't have that, but have trended towards issuing their officers vests," said Sgt. Roy.
Officer Laney has served Colorado Springs for 35 years.
"We do have options when we go to the field and it's nice to have those," he said.
Since 1896, 13 Colorado Springs police officers have died in the line of duty. Eight of which were killed by firearms. Officers attribute training to the lower death number.
"I think this has shown benefit in the survival rate in street police officers," said Officer Laney.
Although deaths by firearms were extremely low in 2013, Sgt. Roy said officers are always learning to try to do better.
Both officers said the fear of being killed by firearms is as great as being killed by dangerous traffic. 46 officers in the U.S. in 2013 were killed in traffic-related incidents.
According to the Officer Down Memorial Page, the city of Pueblo has lost nine officers since its inception. Seven were killed by firearms. Two of those were accidental.

Progressive coffee sourcing in San Diego
Not just organic but biodynamic beans
Ian Anderson 2 p.m., June 26
Repairs to the Quince Street Bridge have yet to be completed since a eucalyptus tree fell on the span March 20. According to a posting from councilman Kevin Faulconer's office at Hillquest.com, San Diego's "Park and Rec is paying for the repairs out [of] its budget, and the city is using an emergency contract for one of its on-call contractors that have been pre-selected for this type of work."
For about a week, contractors have been cutting nine eucalyptus trees and hauling them out of Maple Canyon on the north side of the bridge. The cutting is being done in order to prevent the trees from falling on the bridge in the future (eucalyptus trees are prone to falling because they have shallow roots). Heavy equipment and cranes in use have required the closing of one lane on Fourth Avenue.
Moreover, Hillquest.com also reported that on the afternoon of April 17, "Bankers Hill resident, David Cook, 25, accidently fell 45 feet while climbing on the bridge. He sustained several injuries including a fractured shoulder, broken ribs and wrist. He received treatment at Scripps Mercy Hospital."

The Olympia, called Rottweil 72 in the game files, is an over and under double-barreled shotgun featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call of Duty: Black Ops II and makes a brief appearance in Call of Duty: Black Ops III, where it is seen in the opening cutscene of Origins.

The Olympia can be found frequently throughout the level "Payback," in which it is considerably effective, but still suffers the same problems as it does in multiplayer; specifically, the lack of range and constant need to reload, meaning that on higher difficulties, this weapon will be largely ignored and longer range weapons will be used.
The Olympia is a part of the default CQB class, along with the perks Hardline, Sleight of Hand, and Tactical Mask. Although the reloading time of the gun is not long, users will be doing so often. Lightweight and Marathon are also beneficial due to the fact the Olympia is best used as close to the enemy as possible, and these perks both aid in that.
However, it is ill-advised for an Olympia user to charge headlong at the enemy, as the enemy will most likely be using weapons with far greater range and possibly rate of fire. Instead, players should attempt to outflank the enemy and use cover whenever possible in order to take enemies by surprise. The Olympia excels in maps where the user can readily flank the opposition. As of patch 1.06, all shotguns cancel out an enemy player's ability to enter Second Chance. This was put in place to balance the shotguns inconsistent headshots against users of said perk.
With or without Sleight of Hand, it is advised to reload after every shot, as long as it is safe to do so. This is because it sometimes requires both barrels to dispatch an opponent, and also because enemies sometimes travel in groups. It could be said that the Olympia requires more skill to master than most weapons, because both shots must be managed carefully. An alternative to Sleight of Hand would be Steady Aim, as this allows the user to hit enemies with more consistency than with Sleight of Hand. Furthermore, reload canceling works very well with this gun.
Even though the Olympia's damage drop off is farther than the other shotguns, retaining the ability to be lethal even at medium ranges, the Stakeout has a better (but not by a lot) range both in pellet range and one shot kill range because of its tighter spread. However, the Stakeout is pump-action. The Olympia has a better chance at taking a follow up shot should the first shot not kill in one hit. Also, because of the Olympia's wider spread, it is a superior shotgun for clearing a room or area of multiple targets, provided that all the targets are grouped together, an example being the second floor windows on Nuketown.
The Olympia is available in Zombies as an easily available weapon, spawning alongside the M14 near or relatively near the player spawn on all maps except Dead Ops Arcade and the Call of Duty: World at War classic maps. It costs only 500 points, the amount players spawn in with. It functions much like the Double-Barreled Shotgun in the Call of Duty: World at War maps, though it is cheaper and available right away at the cost of being weaker and having less ammo. If aimed well, one shot of the gun will kill Hellhounds in the later rounds. Although it is very effective, after round 6, it loses its one-shot-kill capability. It can be a very useful gun with Juggernog and Speed Cola. Double Tap Root Beer seems to have little effect because of its low magazine capacity. It is not recommended to keep the Olympia after round 7, unless it is Pack-a-Punched.
- Kino der Toten - At the bottom of left staircases in the starting room
- Five - In the starting area, in a small hallway where Quick Revive is found.
- Ascension - In the centrifuge room on the second floor.
- Call of the Dead - On the bridge towards the left of where players spawn.
- Shangri-La - On a wall left of the spawn point.
- Moon - On a wall outside the area with Quick Revive (near Tunnel 6).
When upgraded via the Pack-a-Punch Machine, the Olympia becomes the Hades, with an increase in power, range, as well as switching to incendiary rounds with 60 extra rounds. Plus, its reload speed seems to increase (not as much as Speed Cola would). The Hades kills zombies effectively until around rounds 19 to 20 and is a good window-watcher weapon. It always kills Hellhounds in one shot to the head regardless of how late it is in the rounds.
Olympia vs HadesEdit
- For Camouflage images, see Olympia/Camouflage.
Call of Duty: Black Ops IIEdit
- "Double-barrel over/under shotgun. Effective at medium to close range."
- — Description
The Olympia returns in the campaign and Zombies in Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
The Olympia is available at the start of the campaign, only in the customizable loadout, and now it accepts attachments.
- "You are a sight for sore eyes, handsome."
- — Misty
The Olympia returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops II Zombies, much the same as it was in the previous installment. It is available for 500 points off the wall near the start on each map except Origins, where it is replaced by the Ballista with the Iron Sight attachment. It performs similarly, if not identically to its Call of Duty: Black Ops counterpart, remaining a one-shot-kill until about round 6, unless Double Tap Root Beer is purchased, in which case it retains its one-hit-kill ability until round 11. When Pack-a-Punched, it becomes the Hades, and cannot be Pack-a-Punched more than once. If Double Tap Root Beer is used on Hades, it will still kill within one shot until round 28. With only two shells in the magazine, it quickly becomes ineffective afterwards, even though it is a two shot kill until round 30.
- Bus Depot / TranZit - On a wall towards the left of the manniquin buildable piece.
- Farm - On the wall in the bigger barn that replaces where the Remington 870 MCS would be in TranZit.
- Town - On a wall next to the entrance of the Semtex room.
- Nuketown Zombies - On the front of one of the trucks in the center of the map
- Die Rise - On a wall in the starting area to the right of the first door.
- Mob of the Dead - In the library in the starting room.
- Buried - In Processing, in between 2 barriers, right of the balcony near the Rift.
Olympia vs. HadesEdit
|150-29 x4
|600-135 x4
|Fire mode
|Rate of fire
|Magazine size
|Max ammo
|More ammo, faster reload, incendiary rounds, higher damage
- Even if there is only one shell in reserve ammo, the player will still load 2 shells.
- The name of the Pack-a-Punched Olympia is "Hades". This name is likely a play of the name "Olympia", as the 12 principal Greek Gods were known as the "Olympians", who supposedly lived on Mt. Olympus in Greece, Hades being the god of the dead and the Underworld.
Call of Duty: Black OpsEdit
- Once shells ejected from the Olympia, the word "SPICY 3" can be seen.
- When Gold Camouflage is applied to the gun, the shells will also be golden. The same happens with the SPAS-12 and the Stakeout.
Call of Duty: Black Ops IIEdit
- In TranZit, Die Rise and Buried, a Persistent Upgrade can be acquired which replaces the Olympia with the Ray Gun.
- The Olympia is seen in the opening cutscene of Origins being used by Nikolai Belinski, but is absent from actual gameplay.

While I'm not a big fan of shopping during the holidays or busy store parking lots or icy roads, I could happily stay home, drink bottomless cups of cocoa, eat 3,000 calories worth of Christmas cookies and listen to the carols of the season. Knowing this, a friend of mine recently introduced me to this video of "12 Days," an original compilation sung by an all-male a cappella vocal ensemble that formed at Indiana University back in 1996. This particular performance by the group named Straight No Chaser was from December 7, 1998, and it makes me smile every time I watch it. Hope it will do the same for you:
Also, because my heroine in A Summer in Europe is a HUGE Andrew Lloyd Webber fan — and so am I! — I wanted to share this second music video with you as well. It's performed by the legendary Sarah Brightman, who originated the lead female role in Webber's The Phantom of the Opera (and she was, in fact, Webber's wife for a time, too). Below she's singing "I Believe in Father Christmas."
Wishing all who celebrate a very Merry Christmas this weekend, and to everyone everywhere I wish you a most happy holiday season. May 2012 be a year of dreams fulfilled, good health, peace on earth and much joy!

Horizon Laminate Floor from China
I'm planning to replace all the carpet in my house with laminate floor. I have been searching around for a good deal for laminate floor. I found a good deal $1.59/sf for 12mm Horizon (made in China) at Sutherlands. I also found that Eurolaminate is selling the 8.2mm Horizon (made in China) for $.59/sf. Has anyone used these laminate floor before? I'm looking to replace about 1200 sf. So if these laminate floor offer a good quality, then I could have save a huge amount of cash.
Re: Horizon Laminate Floor
Please anyone? I really need your opinion if you have any experience with this brand.
I dont know about that specific brand but I went with a cheaper laminate floor in my basement and I am NOT happy with it. I am very happy with the PERGO brand laminate I installed in the playroom...point is, you do get what you pay for and mainly I see it in the tougue and groove integrety for the click and lock. The cheap stuff has a crappy T&G and is actually harder and more frustrating to install. It also chips A LOT easier than the PERGO...I have two boys and they brutalize floors...the PERGO is almost still flawless after 5 years. The playroom is chipped in areas and just in general doesnt "feel" good. I cant explain it. Maybe your off brand would be better...
Anything that is .59 a Sq/ft has got to be crap...
Make sure that you really look at that T&G structure to be sure it is reasonably strong. If you have never installed it before you will know what I mean as soon as you get into it.
you definately get what you pay for.
like any cheaper product, you will need to take extra care when using these products.
if that's your gig, then you will save initially.

Demonstration of supportive housing for chronically homeless families with children at risk for abuse and neglect
Foster care and homelessness are a vicious cycle for high-risk families. Nationally, more than 30 percent of children in foster care come from families where one or both parents are homeless. Half of the children in foster care have birth parents that have a history of homelessness and the majority of the chronically homeless were in foster care themselves. According to the New York City Administration of Children Services (ACS) and the Department of Homeless Services (DHS), on any given day there are at least 1,100 ACS and DHS co-involved families. With a typical family of 2 or 3 children that are ACS involved, roughly 4,000-6,000 cases are dually known to ACS and DHS. These families are known to have greater health, social, and economic needs which often increases the incidence of neglect and abuse and other adverse effects on children. Multiple stressors, such as incarceration of a family member, addiction, and mental health problems often lead to and further perpetuate child welfare involvement and homelessness. ACS estimates that most of their cases with these families are for neglect, and nearly a quarter of the children in foster care could have stayed at home, rather than entering care, if services had been provided to their families. The purpose of this project is for the Corporation for Supportive Housing, working in partnership with ACS, to undertake an unprecedented demonstration of an alternative model of family preservation by designing, implementing, and evaluating the placement of 25-30 families in supportive housing where they will receive comprehensive and coordinated services from multiple city agencies. An external evaluation will be conducted to measure improvements in family function and stability and increased coordination between the public systems that serve these families. This project will leverage $1.5 million in city funds and is expected to demonstrate the value of implementing the pilot city-wide.

Fugitive Financier Arrested in France
Kazakh Banker Accused of Embezzlement Faces Possible Deportation
A fugitive Kazakh financier, accused by the bank he once ran of embezzling billions of dollars, faces possible deportation to Ukraine after his arrest in the south of France.
Mukhtar Ablyazov fled London in early 2012, when a U.K. judge ordered him to prison for contempt of court, and has been missing since. Mr. Ablyazov has denied the embezzlement allegations and argued that the pursuit by the bank, BTA Bank, is part of a campaign...

2013 Cadillac ATS 3.6
Alpha Male: From GM's new platform comes a car seeking dominance.
Our test car's Premium pack includes beautifully stitched leather and a piano-black center stack accented with "dusk" finished chrome. Hand and finger gestures control the CUE screen—in response to each tap, you can hear and feel a soft thump confirming receipt of your command. A polishing cloth for clearing smudges is included.
Part of the V-6's howl noted during acceleration tests also plays through the cockpit when lower gears, higher revs, and aggressive throttle applications are in play. This is not your grandpa's church-quiet Caddy.
While we're disappointed that the ATS's most potent engine is denied a clutch and an H-pattern, at least it has an automatic that thinks like a stick. When you grab a shift with either the console lever or a steering-wheel paddle, this transmission does what it can to heighten the fun. It drops gears when you slow for a turn to maximize the blast out of the bend and delays upshifts during acceleration until you pull the trigger or hit the redline. A full manual mode can be engaged by moving the lever to the left. In that setting, no shift occurs without a paddle tap or a lever nudge, even when the tach needle is bumping the rev limiter. Brightly polished magnesium shift paddles sparkle and are literally cool to the touch due to the breeze they get from the dashboard vents.
The ATS's FE3 suspension (also part of the top Premium Collection package) provides tour and sport damping modes, plus a third position for slippery conditions. In every setting, body motions are tightly controlled and the ride is surprisingly firm over Michigan's lousy pavement. The payoff is the most immediate and agile steering response we've experienced in any compact sports sedan. Snap the wheel a handful of degrees, and the car changes direction like a hummingbird. There's no hesitation, and body roll is minuscule. While the electric power assist provides less feedback than we'd like (roughly the same as the 3-series), this steering is at least quick and nicely weighted. The same magnetic dampers that help optimize ride and handling also keep the car flat during hard braking. The left pedal is properly calibrated to deliver additional stopping force for each increment of pressure, and feedback is strong.
As in any new design, there are foibles. The ATS's exterior seems tame in comparison to the CTS coupe's charming exuberance, in large part because Cadillac hopes to sell lots of these cars in China, where flamboyant design has historically been a deal breaker. Its back seat is not as easy to enter, or as roomy, or as comfortable as that in the reference 3-series, even though that BMW is a tick shorter in overall length. The steering-wheel switch controlling the ATS's three-panel driver's info screen is a rocker, a toggle, and a push button all rolled into one slightly confounding device; discovering its nuances will surely move drivers to consult their owner's manuals.
But let's not quibble. The ATS won us over with its performance. We can't wait to drive the manual-transmission turbo version, and we're eager to find out if the smallest, lightest Cadillac in ages can smite the giants in a comparo.

USGS Western Ecological Research Center
Scientists at the USGS Western Ecological Research Center study the many ecosystems
of the Pacific Southwest. Follow our expeditions and projects through this outreach page, and learn
more about your local landscape with our library of Outreach Factsheets and photos. Thanks for joining us!
When we hear that verse from "Home on the Range" about where the antelope play, most people aren't thinking of Bakersfield -- or San Luis Obispo for that matter.
Yet halfway between these California cities is the Carrizo Plain National Monument, some 200,000 acres home to the largest remaining remnant of the original San Joaquin Valley habitat. It is one of America's newest national monuments, and it's a landscape that offers a glimpse of what California looked like in millennia past.
A California that still had herds of pronghorn antelope (Antilocapra americana).
Historically, pronghorn were found on the Carrizo Plain, as well as other areas in southern California. However, due to extensive habitat fragmentation through conversion of native grasslands into agricultural areas, the species was locally extinct throughout the region by the 1940's. Pronghorn were reintroduced to Carrizo Plain in the 1990's in part to reestablish a historic population, but more broadly, to help restore a native ecosystem. As large herbivores, pronghorn play an important role as grazers, seed dispersers, and even prey items in natural communities.
This gives Carrizo Plain officials a special challenge in balancing its responsibilities of managing both the survival of the new pronghorn population and the existing permitted livestock grazing.
To help collect data on the life history of Carrizo Plain pronghorns, USGS Western Ecological Research Center scientists Kathy Longshore and Diego Johnson have been tracking pronghorn fawns with GPS transmitter collars to study their survival and mortality.
Diego Johnson approaches a pronghorn fawn. Image credit: Sara A. Schuster/USGS.
Johnson, who is also a graduate student at University of Nevada, Las Vegas tells us more about his research here:
Q: Most people don't equate pronghorn with California. What was their range in this state during prehistory?
Johnson: Actually, California's once extensive native grasslands and mild climate would have been exceptional pronghorn habitat. In fact, pronghorn were considered common in southern, central and northern California and were found on both sides of the coastal range, from Monterey well into Baja California.
Q: What kind of management questions will your studies help answer for the Bureau of Land Management?
Johnson: Understanding the biotic and abiotic factors which influence survival is essential to effectively manage any wildlife population. One important component of our research focuses on fawn survival. We are interested in how factors such as birth synchrony, habitat use, and predation can act together to influence fawn survival and overall population dynamics. What type of vegetation structure is important for a hiding fawn or a foraging mother? How is predation influenced by fawn habitat selection and spatial movement? How does the density of a population affect survival? These are just a few of the questions that can be addressed by land managers using information from our research.
Q: What are some factors affecting fawn survival in the Carrizo pronghorn?
Johnson: The most significant natural factor affecting pronghorn population dynamics is fawn mortality due to predation. Fawn predation is naturally high in most pronghorn populations (40-80%) and in fact, fawns provide an important, natural food source for predators during the early spring of each year. However, in habitat with poor vegetative cover for hiding or in low density populations, such as that found in the Carrizo, the effects of predation can increase. In the Carrizo, the top predators of fawns include coyotes, golden eagles, and bobcats, and we want to figure out how land managers can encourage fawn survival while allowing natural predator-prey interactions.
Q: What's it like holding a live pronghorn fawn in your arms?
Johnson: The fawns that we handle are typically between 2-5 days old. Their hiding instinct is incredibly strong during this period so they often remain motionless while we process and collar them. They have enormous dark eyes and comically long limbs -- you image that they have the tools to one day see far and run fast on a flat open Carrizo grassland.

Take A Peek Wednesday: How I'm Spending My Sumer Vacation!
How has your summer been? I've been busy..busy in the garden,busy on day trips, busy around the house, and busy trying to get some relaxation in there.
The garden is coming along nicely and have already made some mental notes for next years garden. Like..plant 3 times the amount of zucchini because we are already out. I had one plant that didn't produce anything! I've learned my lesson with watermelons..as in, don't even bother in this climate. I'm waiting on my blue jade corn to come into harvest as well.
I've been hitting up the local second hand shops and was thrilled to finally find an egg wire basket! is it no the neatest thing ever? The second hand shops here are for the most part seriously disappointing but every so often you can score something fabulous.
We've gone on a bunch of nature walks..I'm determined to soak up as much vitamin d as possible before the long dark days of winter hit us..and you know they are coming!
In just a few short weeks the boys will be heading off to school and my husband will be headed off for a new job adventure. So for now please excuse my absence. I am loving the time with my family and will return soon.
I have so many things to share with you all..I finally made a sourdough starter that is thriving. I've baked so much bread it's unreal. I'm learning new ways of stretching the food budget. So stay tuned and I wish you all a wonderful summer!

Plans have been drawn up and submitted for a giant extension to Kent's Bluewater shopping centre.
Manager and part-owner, Lend Lease, wants to build a 330,000-square-foot extension to create Bluewater's West Village, resulting in one of the largest shopping centres in this country and creating up to 2300 jobs for the area. Dartford council is expected to decide on the plans in the spring.
The plans are part of a wider investment in the centre. Lend Lease has recently opened Glow — an events and exhibition space — and it re-opened The Wintergarden in October.
The mall has signed up new retailers including Mappin & Webb and Montblanc.

School Board Names Hanks New Junior/Senior High School Principal, Discusses Budget Issues
Written by Devon Boen
The Wolf Point School board met May 14 and made multiple changes to the board structure.
As a result of the board selecting current high school principal and co-superintendent Joe Paine as the 2013-14 full-time district superintendent, a principal vacancy arose. The board unanimously approved Kim Hanks as the junior/senior high school principal for next year. Hanks is currently the assistant junior/senior high school principal.
Board member Scott Nefzger's seat was up for re-election this year and he chose not to run again. Nefzger chose to step down because he said he needed to dedicate more attention to his career in the next several years.
"It's been a joy getting to know everybody and working with everyone. It started off a little rocky, but I've got to admit the last couple years have actually been kind of fun. I actually would have run again, but my current position at the hospital is going to be taking up a lot of my time in the next year or two, so I need to commit a little more to that," Nefzger said.
Board chairman Martin DeWitt expressed his gratitude toward Nefzger.
"We've come a long way and I think both of us have grown quite a bit and I think I owe a lot of that growing for myself to him," DeWitt said. "He's done a lot of positive things. I really appreciate it. He's served his time. Hopefully, one day he decides to come back and continue to help us out in trying to make our school better."
After Nefzger stepped down from his seat, the board swore in newly elected Wolf Point board members Jaronn Boysun and Brent Nygard as well as Ed Bach who was elected to nominating district #3.
Boysun was appointed in January to replace board member Sonny Douglas and, during the election, he secured his seat for another three years.
After each election, the board is required to select a new chairman, vice-chairman and clerk. The board unanimously reappointed DeWitt as the board chairman and appointed Tracy Juve as the new vice-chairman in place of Nefzger. Cheri' Nygard was selected as the new clerk. Erickson explained that her position as clerk will be assigned the new title of board secretary.
In the co-superintendent report, Karge and Paine discussed how federal funding would be limited next year and explained the serious budget issues it would cause the district.
Karge said the federal budget sequestration would force the school to make even deeper cuts.
Paine said if the district received 80 percent of Impact Aid funds next year, the elementary school would have about $1,000 less in its annual budget for next year. The high school budget would be $185,000 less than last year's budget.
Paine and Karge also stressed that the district might not receive 80 percent of the Impact Aid funds, which would make the budgets even tighter.
"We, as a district, are still going to have to tighten our belt or increase revenue," Paine said.
DeWitt brought up the possibility of running another mill levy election.
"Without community support, we don't have a school. Without community support, we don't have a budget — we don't have anything," DeWitt said. "There's no way that we can continue to offer a fair and quality education and an opportunity for our students without community support."
"I think we need to be very specific on the ballot about what we're going to use the money for so the taxpayers know," said Juve. "I think we also need to do a mail-in election."
The board closed out the meeting with staffing hires, renewals and resignations.
Board members unanimously approved hiring Jocelyn Peters as a Southside second-grade teacher, Sharri Vandall as a Northside summer school teacher, Kati Hari as a Northside teacher, Jase Miller as a Northside teacher, Emily Hamilton, Lee Vandall and Karla McGill as junior/senior summer school teachers and Kim Hanks as the summer school coordinator.
The board approved renewing all current head coaches and renewed 44 classified staff members. It also approved renewing Northside principal Hannah Nieskens as an administrative staff member and Megan Helmer and Jeff McMorris as certified staff members for the 2013-14 school year.
The board unanimously accepted the resignations of Northside teachers Lisa Gowing, Jessica Molenda and Carla Swenson, along with junior high teacher Katrina Vaira Danelson.

Excerpts from recent editorials in newspapers in the United States and abroad as compiled by the Associated Press:
News Tribune, Jefferson City, Mo.
Arming teachers to respond to deadly attacks is an unsettling concept.
Gov. Jay Nixon on July 14 vetoed legislation that would permit educators who specifically are trained for armed response to carry concealed weapons.
Supporters of the bill contend students' lives could be saved by the more rapid response offered by trained, armed teachers. We have no quarrel with that theory. But theory does not necessarily translate effectively into the reality of an adrenalin-fueled, bloody gun battle.
Teachers are trained to educate. Even if teachers have background and experience handling firearms, can and should they be placed in situations where they must make life-and-death decisions?
Their job is teaching, and teaching must not and should not place them in a position where they must ask themselves if this is the moment when they will kill another human being.
The Oregonian, Portland, Ore.
Dying in the digital age means leaving two worlds instead of one.
One is the physical world, where your body resides. The other is the online world, where your virtual self exists. When you die, your loved ones become responsible for both – yet they have very few tools to take proper care of the online "you."
This is a growing problem nationally and in Oregon. Last week, a leading group of lawyers recommended that states adopt several proposals to make it easier for surviving family members and executors of estates to gain access to digital assets when you die. This group, known as the Uniform Law Commission, says electronic documents should be treated much like paper documents in a file cabinet. In most cases, a surviving loved one or executor should get easy access without having to petition a judge or jump through months of hoops.
Digital privacy is emerging as a hot topic for the 2015 legislative session, and dealing with the digital assets of a deceased person is likely to be part of the mix. Oregonians may find themselves debating surreal questions such as: How can we keep a virtual self out of legal purgatory? How should we define a good digital death?
This would have sounded like gibberish five years ago. Now, it's a natural extension of living with our heads – and a good part of our souls – in the digital cloud.
The Moscow Times
Over the past several months, we have witnessed an almost major collapse in bilateral relations between Russia and the U.S., seemingly throwing to the wind more than 20 years of modest but quantifiable rapprochement.
The Nobel Committee, which will award the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize in October, should look closely at the contribution each candidate makes toward the easing of tensions between Russia and the West when choosing this year's winner.
One candidate in particular has contributed more toward these ends than any other nominee: the International Space Station partnership.
This partnership represents the largest international collaborative project ever undertaken during peacetime. Space agencies have so far refused to allow political currents to interfere with the International Space Station program.
The crisis in Ukraine, however, has thrown the future of the program into question.
Ending Russian participation in the ISS could easily lead to a return to Cold War enmity ... It would also wreck one of the few examples of major international cooperation as governments burn bridge after bridge in the Ukrainian crisis.
The ISS shows that it is possible to overlook political differences and work together toward a truly global and uplifting goal: creating the framework for the human race to continue its push beyond Earth's orbit.

will soon succeed in designating ITIL as the international standard. "It is currently being fast-tracked. It is projected to be ratified, if things go well, sometime in 2006. In addition, we're working on ITIL 3.0, doing an update to the library for the 2006 time frame."
While still in its infancy in the United States, ITIL is heralded by its champions as the only way for IT to survive. With fewer than 1,000 Americans certified ITIL masters, it has a long way to go before it becomes widely accepted.
ITIL is almost certain to become the method for operating IT in the future. Aside from the books, ITIL is free, it's scalable, it saves money and it's interpretive. For those reasons, every organization -- both public and private -- should be clamoring to understand the best practices of ITIL.
Perhaps the most compelling reason for ITIL is the simplest. As Roy said, "ITIL is the most uncommon thing in IT: It is common sense."

As a puzzled US mourned the victims of Friday's mass shooting in Colorado, some internet users asked themselves: how far can inappropriate behavior go?
Among prayers for the victims and their families, endless discussions about gun control and real time updates on the tragedy, Twitter users were shocked to see this tweet from @NRA_Rifleman, an account associated with the National Rifle Association's official journal, at 9.20am ET.
"Good morning, shooters. Happy Friday! Weekend plans?"
The NRA didn't remove the tweet until 12.15pm, but the wave of outraged responses it provoked was so bad that the organization later deleted the account. No apologies were issued, though.
From a more commercial angle, online clothing store Celeb Boutique decided to use the tragedy to promote "our Kim K[ardashian] inspired #Aurora dress" using the hashtag that was trending because of the shooting. Taking from these reactions on Twitter, it wasn't exactly a huge sales booster.
The store apologized later for their "misunderstanding", saying the blunder was "not intentional" and explaining that their PR agency "is NOT US based". But, despite the tweet being removed, one Twitter user had a creative suggestion for the website to clear up its image:
On news websites, comment threads on stories about the Colorado massacre were not for the faint of the heart.
A video showing the three-month-old baby who got hurt in the movie theater massacre on kdvr.com caused an angry discussion from some of the readers – but not exactly because an infant had been injured during a senseless shooting.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the tyke is okay, but who the heck brings a 3 month old baby to a movie, never mind a crowded midnight premiere? Can't you wait until you find a sitter to see the movie?
Exactly... Just ignorance at its finest. And yes of course i'm glad the kid is okay. Terrible situation that could have been avoided.
And its 100 degrees outside today and he's doing an interview with that baby in his arms in this heat. Where is social services when you need them?
Bianca Consunji, a Community intern at Mashable, posted this status to Facebook in the morning, as people began to learn about the news – and she began to question her faith in humanity:
Dear Internet: Jokes about how Batman failed to foil the Aurora gunman are NOT funny in any capacity.
A comment moderator
What is your opinion on these and other online gaffes related to the shooting?

New Delhi: Aamir Khan seems to be on to something and has new ideas for his future productions. Actually, a new idea. It all revolves around Salman Khan. Aamir is using his fellow actor, along with all his statements and gestures in the new production, "Dhobi Ghat".
Taking a look back in the perfectionist's career, we cannot overlook the film "Jaane Tu…Ya Janne Na", with the remarkable song "Pappu can't dance saala", which created controversies back then, as everyone believed it was a dig at the lifestyle Sallu flaunted. Last year, Aamir hit at Salman again, with the satirical hit "Peepli Live".
So now we have director Kiran Rao's production "Dhobi Ghat", in which Aamir strikes once more. The character played by Prateik Babbar in the film is a fan of Salman Khan, and we can see the character wearing a bracelet with blue stone, just like Salman Khan. He also tries to work as much as possible, to have a body like Salman and wants desperately to be an actor, just like his idol. He believes Salman is a 'cool dude'.

(ST. LOUIS, AP) — A new program in St. Louis places homeless veterans into furnished apartments, an effort to both get them off the street and help them turn their lives around.
The effort will serve as a pilot program for possible use in other cities. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch (http://bit.ly/1nMCALJ) reports that it launched Wednesday.
The program is mainly funded by a one-year $750,000 Department of Housing and Urban Development "rapid housing" grant.
About 50 homeless veterans were on hand as Mayor Francis Slay spoke at a news conference in the morning. Within hours, many of them were in apartments.
The effort focuses on the "chronically homeless." Census figures show 112 chronically homeless people in St. Louis, 50 of them veterans.

Low porosity is not a bad thing! No reason to try to normalize it.
To reduce drying time by removing water, use curl towels (or a cotton tee shirt.) After putting in products, I wrap my hair in a Curlease towel while dressing and doing make up. Scrunch out more water with a CLU towel. Then, I diffuse, no reason not to do a little. I don't pixie curl--never touch my hair with anything while drying or it gives me frizz. If you keep the dryer away from your hair a bit, you shouldn't cause damage.
This will all cut down on the drying time.

Should I get this '97 528i back on the road?
Long back story short: after wrecking a rare Vespa in the rain then surgery, it's time to get a car again. My buddy has a 1997 BMW 528i, 127k miles, black on black with DSP stereo. It's in rough shape but the drivetrain is mostly sound and the body issues are bolt on and respray. I'm trying to figure whether it's worth $250 for the car plus the work and money to get it in tip top shape again. I have at least 3/4's of the tools and know how for most of this. The KBB for fair condition is $3300 in my area. Here's the laundry list of problems and solutions I've come up with. I'd like some feedback.
Repair problems
Car over heats at idle, no obvious leaks, no oil in coolant or vice versa. Though I need to test, I think it's the fan clutch. Going to ignore that and replace cooling system: rad, water pump, hose, fan clutch and thermostat.
Vanos was recently replaced and may be leaking. It was replaced by my buddy, not the most mechanically inclined. Get gasket and reinstall Vanos.
Right rear wheel bearing is kaput. replace.
Windshield is cracked, badly. Replace, preferably with OEM climate control glass.
Passenger door doesn't like to unlock sometimes without using the key. Likely solenoid replacement.
Sunroof has issues opening. Guides have been replaced recently, and not aligned well.
AC compressor forgot how to compress. Replace or rebuild compressor.
Body issues
Right front fender has been hit, also causing door opening issues. Replace front fender, (use aftermarket, ) and trim. Get door front leading edge bent back into shape. Respray.
Hood may need respray.
Several small hail dings in trunk lid. Get specialist to pop them out from behind.
Rear bumper cover and trim is noticeably gouged, cracked and pitted from inner city bumper car parallel parking. Replace with aftermarket replacement unit and respray.
Interior issues
Leather, especially front seats and steering wheel has seen better days. It is however still supple and smooth. Redye front seats or whole interior depending on color match. Hopefully, I can redye steering wheel, if not replace with used.
Some of the wood trim may be in too bad of shape to save, do a cheesy carbon fiber wrap of wood bits.
Glovebox is stuck shut. Solution unknown, from getting it unstuck because it's too full of junk to ordering a used Euro lower dash from eBay in Europe.
CD changer is broke. Remove and play shotput with old unit to test shock resistance.
Cupholders are broke. Replace.
Right headlight was replaced with a garbage Chinese aftermarket part and partially melted. Call Umitza(sp?) or similar, get angel eye headlights.
Remove CDV and replace clutch system fluid.
Still has cellphone with attendant armrest. I am not an '80s yuppie. Order Euro armrest assembly off sketchy Lithuanian eBay seller who probably deals with chop shops.
Stereo lacks modern conveniences. Get a DICE media bridge or a Parrot bluetooth kit.
Cassette deck is spurious. Ignore or replace with Business CD.
OEM or junkyard fender and bumper add too much cost to the build to keep me under the $3000 mark on the build before upgrades. The climate control windshield may be too pricey to keep the build under $3000 as well. Well, that's what I'll need to do. If I do it, I'll do it in stages. First stage is wheel bearing, cooling, fender, (without respray,) leather redye, headlights and windshield. I'll progress from there once she's on the road. Should I get going on getting her back in shape or have her sent her to the junkyard instead? Anybody have an cheap fixes I ignored or don't know about?
Caveat: This may be posted to the forums on multiple sites and I am lazy, hence you might see this copy and pasted in other places.
Should I get this '97 528i back on the road?
You cant really go wrong for $250 if you. You can always part it out and make money out of it, if you have the time and space to do so.

You probably want to verify that the head is not warped or cracked from the overheating before throwing too much money at it. It if is you can get a rebuilt head for $700.

Hey all, thought I would ask my fellow forum members to help me out with an off topic subject. I am currently looking at buying a new vehicle, and I am mainly focusing on compact trucks, but occasionally my mind wanders to the jeep wrangler.
Really what I would like to gain is ground clearance and 4x4 capability, I'm tired of bottoming out my car trying to get down forest service roads and the like. A truck seems practical, maybe a crew cab, but I've always liked the jeep wranglers, just the way it is I guess. This vehicle will be my commuter as well.
I've narrowed it down to these five: Tacoma, Frontier, Equator, Ridgeline, Wrangler.
Help me.

Play Contraction Concentration!
A contraction is an abbreviated form of two words. It contains an apostrophe which indicates that there are missing letters. Help your child figure out contractions and their original two words by playing this simple game.
What You Need:
- Index cards
- Pencils, crayons, markers or a variety of these items
What You Do:
1. Prepare. Make a list of contractions and the two words that make them up, such as:
- can't - can not
- I'm - I am
- didn't - did not
- what's - what is
- won't - will not
- doesn't - does not
- isn't - is not
- you'll - you will
- I'll - I will
- they're - they are
- it's - it is
- she's - she is
- we're - we are
- he'll - he will
2. Make word cards. Write the list of contractions individually on index cards. On another set of index cards, write the two words that make up each contraction. For example, for "can't" you will have two cards. One will say, "can't" on it and the other will say, "can not". Your child can participate by writing the contractions and their base words.
3. Set it up. Turn the cards face down and lay them out in rows on the floor or on the table. Ask your child to turn over two cards at a time. The object is to find the correct two words that make up the correct contraction. Once a match is made, ask your child to remove those cards from the rest of the game. If you play with more than one child, each one takes turns drawing two cards, trying to make a match. If a match is made, that child gets to take another turn. Otherwise, play continues as normal.
Continue flipping cards two at a time until all the matches have been made. The result? A game that's sure to make learning contractions a whole lot more fun!

Matthew: The Hinge of the Bible (3 of 29) by Roger Thomas
This content is part of a series.Matthew: The Hinge of the Bible (3 of 29)
Series: Through the New Testament
Roger Thomas
Matthew 1:1, 18-23, 5:17, 23:37-39, 28:18-20
Introduction: Matthew 1 is probably the most read chapter in the entire Bible. You read most books by starting at the beginning. So people start reading the New Testament in the same way. Unfortunately, a lot of folk open the New Testament to Matthew 1:1. They confront what seems like an endless list of impossible to pronounce names. They quickly give up, wrongly concluding that the whole Bible must be like that. For far too many folk, Matthew 1 is the beginning and ending place of their Bible reading.
Matthew is also the hinge of the Bible. It is that pivot point upon which everything else turns. It is the swinging gate between the Old and the New Testaments. It is no accident that Matthew's Gospel sits at the beginning of the New Testament or begins with Jesus' family tree. It provides a place to enter the message of Jesus for anyone who has started in the Old Testament. That's the focus of the book--Jesus the fulfiller of the Old.
Matthew is different than the other gospels. It is the most Jewish. This first Gospel presumes some background. It talks about topics and makes connections that someone who isn't at least familiar with the Old Testament could not possibly understand or appreciate. Matthew was written by a Jew to introduce Jewish readers to Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. Matthew answers the question Jesus asks his disciples near the center of the book, "Who do you say that I am?" (Mt 16:15-16). The answer? The Christ--the son of the Living God and fulfiller of the Old Testament.
We may not be Jewish, but Matthew's case for Christ is still compelling. He provides a foundation for our faith by bridging the New Testament and the Old. Tonight we will look into the world of this first book of the New Testament through three different windows. 1) Matthew's life--we will learn about the write ...

Re: Problem to evaluate a function inside a function
It is tough to say for certain without seeing the actual example. One
possibility is that chi2 may also need ?NumericQ checks on its
arguments. Another possibility is that both definitions of ePhip existed
at the same time. If the ?NumericQ checks were added to ePhip without
clearing the definition of ePhip that did not have ?NumericQ checks, the
version without the ?NumericQ checks would still get evaluated first.

iHeartMedia and Creditors Agree to Mediation. The legal battle between iHeartMedia and 15 creditors goes into mediation after the parties agreed to extend the existing Temporary Restraining Order the media giant won preventing Notices of Default going into effect. This stems from iHeartMedia's December 2015 transfer of a million shares of class B common stock in Clear Channel Outdoor into a shell company called Broader Media. The creditors believe this move violates the terms of their loans; iHM believes it does not. If the Notices of Default are allowed to go into effect, that could force iHeartMedia to have to try to pay back some $15 billion in debt within 60 days, something that is not possible and could force the company into bankruptcy. The parties will work until May 16 to resolve the conflict.

Frazier Glenn Cross and the Media
By Steven J.J. Weisman
Legal Editor
BOSTON — The country was shocked and saddened to see and hear the news on Sunday of the killing of three people by racist and anti-Semite Frazier Glenn Cross, who has also been known as Glenn Miller, particularly when he ran for the United States Senate from Missouri in 2010. To those who might question why I, a lawyer, refer to Cross/Miller as a "killer" when he has not been convicted in a court of law and is entitled to a presumption of innocence, I respond that it is abundantly clear that Cross/Miller did indeed kill 14-year-old Reat Underwood and his grandfather Dr. William Corporon who had the misfortune to be attending a singing contest at the Jewish Community Center of Greater Kansas City in Overland Park, Kansas. By the way, neither of them was Jewish. We also know that Cross/Miller killed an elderly woman at the nearby Village Shalom senior living facility. Cross/Miller is entitled to a legal presumption of innocence in determining whether he is legally responsible for these killings, but make no mistake about it, he killed these three innocent people. During his arrest, he was recorded screaming "Heil Hitler."
What makes Miller's case of particular interest to broadcasters goes back to 2010 when he ran as a write-in candidate for the United States Senate in Missouri. Under federal law, radio stations and television stations are not required to carry political advertisements, but if they do choose to carry political advertising, the stations must not discriminate among candidates. They must carry the advertising of any bona fide candidate who wishes to advertise on their stations. In 2010, Glenn Miller produced and spoke in a number of racist and anti-Semitic rantings under the guise that they were political advertisements for his candidacy. Here is a link to a YouTube video of some of his ads. Be forewarned, they are extremely offensive:
As you can well imagine, Missouri broadcasters that carried political advertisements were very upset when confronted by Miller demanding advertising time on their stations. Some broadcasters carried the advertisements preceded by apologies and disclaimers while others donated the money paid by Miller to local chapters of the NAACP and the Jewish Community Relations Council.
Ultimately, the Missouri Attorney General and the Missouri Broadcasters Association requested a declaratory ruling from the FCC as to whether Miller was indeed a "bona fide" political candidate and thus was entitled to air his venomous political advertisements or was he just a racist, anti-Semite trying to exploit what he perceived as a loophole in the law. The petition by the Missouri Attorney General and the Missouri Broadcasters Association argued, "Whatever Miller's commitment might be, it is not about getting elected in the general election, but simply to pervert the campaign laws to his true purpose of requiring FCC licensees to broadcast his non-campaign messages to an unsuspecting public." Specifically, the petition indicated that Miller did not have a campaign committee, an office or issue press releases, all of which the FCC used as standards as to whether a write-in candidate qualified as a bona fide candidate. Finally, after months of carrying Miller's advertisements, the FCC's Media Bureau issued an informal ruling that "on the facts and pleadings submitted by all parties, including Mr. Miller, it would not be unreasonable for Missouri broadcasting stations to determine that Miller is not a bona fide write-in candidate and therefore, Missouri broadcasters may deny him access to their stations." Immediately thereafter the advertisements were dropped and little was heard from Glenn Miller by a national audience. That is until Sunday.
