Fitting the pieces
For an Ivy Tech campus to come to Noblesville, the schools, city, residents, county and state each have a part of the puzzle
The idea is simple enough: Noblesville Schools will sell Noblesville East Middle School, 300 N. 17th St., to the county and Ivy Tech will move into the former school building and create a Hamilton County campus. The plan, however, has many moving parts and is contingent on the schools, city, county and state officials agreeing to terms as well as voters approving a public referendum, all combining to make the potential sale not so straightforward.
The completed plan carries an almost $50-million price tag. Hamilton County will pay Noblesville Schools $13.4 million for NEMS. It will then lease the building to Ivy Tech for $1. The City of Noblesville will contribute $6.5 million ($5 million to assist Ivy Tech in renovations and $1.5 million to Noblesville Schools). The schools' referendum, which initially will seek $39.5 million, could decrease to $25 million. The state will also kick in $10 million for renovations needed at the new campus.
The main component of the deal lies with the May 7 public referendum, which will ask taxpayers to approve a bond issuance not to exceed $28 million. In order for Noblesville Schools to sell NEMS, it must have plans in place to move the students that currently go there.
"If one piece fails, it's a lost opportunity. A lost once in a lifetime opportunity," Hamilton County Commissioner Steve Dillinger said. "It's the most exciting thing to happen to Noblesville and the most exciting thing to happen to Hamilton County."
Noblesville Schools
Noblesville Schools wants to sell NEMS, and its strategic plan calls for freshmen to return to an expanded high school facility. The freshman campus will transform back into a middle school, which is what it was years ago.
"We are able to expand and renovate a building with good bones and get a larger term use for less money then we'd put into the (NEMS) building," Supt. Libbie Conner said. "It's an effective and efficient use of taxpayers' dollars."
While the school system will sell the building, it will retain possession of Hare Chevrolet Field and the parking lot will be used by the district and the Boys & Girls Club. Conner added that the NEMS gymnasium would have its history preserved and Ivy Tech planned to open it and the auditorium to the community.
"Ivy Tech is very community minded," she said. "They love the building because to them it's in better shape than most buildings they renovate."
In addition to selling a building in need of major renovation, Conner said the potential sale meets the district's strategic planning goal of partnering with higher education. Noblesville High School currently offers dual credit through Ivy Tech, but a nearby campus would expand its opportunities she said. The campus would also allow Noblesville Schools to provide grades 13 and 14 – a pathway that concludes with more than a high school diploma.
"They stay right here working toward trade certification or associates degree," Conner said. "They continue right here after school, seamlessly."
Ivy Tech
Hamilton County was selected as a location the community college wanted to house a campus due to its growing population, which increased almost 50 percent from 2000 to 2010 (nearly 275,000 people), according to Ivy Tech Central Indiana Chancellor Kathleen Lee. She also emphasized the importance of the strong partnership with Noblesville Schools, which currently offers 20 sections onsite, and the willingness of the city to help with funding and resources.
"We expect this campus to be a full service campus with student advisement, student aide, library and a basketball team," Lee said, adding that the science labs will allow the college to offer science courses not available at other locations.
A Hamilton County location provides residents easier access to college credits, technical certifications and associate degrees. Since 2007-2008, Ivy Tech has seen an increase of 98 percent, or nearly 5,000 students, from Hamilton County. Currently, 70 percent of courses Hamilton County students take are outside of the county. Where do Hamilton County students take Ivy Tech courses? According to Lee, only 30 percent of instructional demand is currently met by courses taught in Hamilton County; 22 percent of students take online courses; and 48 percent of students travel to other counties.
Hamilton County
Dillinger said the biggest asset of the deal was bringing a higher education campus to the community.
"Counties all over the state are trying to get Ivy Tech," he said. "They want to come here desperately."
The move also has several economic benefits for Hamilton County. Dillinger said a full-service Ivy Tech campus could employ as many as 50 full-time staff and faculty. In addition to bringing jobs, it will also bring commuters to the area.
"It could serve as many as 4,600 students expanding up to 10,000 in the future. How much gas will they buy? How much will the restaurants benefits?" he asked. "How many companies might consider Hamilton County due to Ivy Tech's skilled training classes?"
The campus would help to retrain employees and provide much-needed skills to younger people not going to college. Mayor John Ditslear said the campus would not only provide better jobs to residents, but a more skilled labor force that would make it easier for the city to attract businesses.
"We get asked about our workforce a lot," he said. "That is important."
Ditslear said Ivy Tech would provide opportunities to several groups – high school students, graduates and adults, adding that the campus also would allow high school students to earn dual credits. It also allows college students the opportunity to live and work in Noblesville while earning credits, degrees and job certifications. Like Hamilton County, Ditslear said the higher education campus would make it easier to attract businesses and provide the city with an economic impact.
The Community
The average cost of a four-year degree at a public institution is $76,181. Ivy Tech charges $111.53 per credit hour. Lee said the campus would provide first- and second-year general education core classes required for all degree work, which is transferable to all public institutions in the state. Degree programs are based on regional need with focus on STEM programming, such as manufacturing, pre-engineering and other areas identified by regional employers.
"We're very well balanced between the technical side and courses that will transfer," Lee said.
High School Main Campus
Capacity: The main campus would expand its capacity from 2,200 to 3,200 plus for grades 9 through 12.
Additions: Two-story, secure front entrance for administration, guidance, student services, performing arts and classrooms; two-story freshman center classroom space; and gym and physical education locker space. Work will also reconfigure the LGI, administration, guidance, student services spaces into classroom space for more efficient use of existing space.
Site work: Additional parking and bus zone
Cost: $27 million
Freshman Campus
Capacity: Expanding and remodeling the freshman campus to a middle school will increase capacity from 900 to 1,200 for grades 6 through 8.
Additions: Two-story eighth-grade addition and two-story sixth-grade addition. Work would also reconfigure/remodel the cafeteria, physical education spaces, wrestling space and health rooms.
Site work: Move tennis courts to vacant area south of White River Elementary School and baseball field from Noblesville East Middle School site, parking and bus zone.
Cost: $12.5 million
How much will bringing Ivy Tech to Noblesville cost taxpayers? The projected cost is $60 a year for homeowners of a $200,000 residence. The total cost will be divided into three areas: all Hamilton County taxpayers and those within Noblesville schools and city limits.
Hamilton County – The county will issue an $11.9-million bond for 20 years. This equates to $920,000 in debt service per year or $0.0053 tax rate impact based on the 2012 assessed value. For a $100,000 home, this is a projected tax rate increase of $1.74; $5.18 for a $200,000 home; and $8.63 for a $300,000 home.
Noblesville – The city will issue a $6 million 20-year bond. This adds $475,000 in annual debt service or a $0.0205 tax rate impact based on current assessed value. The tax rate impact is projected at $6.71 for a $100,000 home; $20.04 for a $200,000; and $33.36 for a $300,000 home.
Schools – The school board must first decide the referendum amount. If the lower cost of $25 million is selected, its projected tax rate impact is $0.09 per $100 of assessed value, or $11.79 for $100,000 homes; $35.19 for $200,000; and $58.59 for a $300,000 home. The $28 million project includes $3 million to refinance existing bonds, thus saving the taxpayer in the long run. Projected costs are $0.10 per $100 of assessed value, or $8.19 for $100,000 homes; $24.44 for $200,000; and $40.69 for a $300,00 home.
Saving money – All of the tax rates are based on a 4.5-percent interest rate, however, current market trends project that amount to be closer to 3.5 percent or possibly lower. The Dept. of Local Government Finance requires that a conservative number is planned so the total cannot exceed the published amount. The projected amounts are also based on this year's assessed value and include no growth. In 2012, Noblesville increased its assessed value by 0.18 percent.
Tonight – The Noblesville Common Council will vote to approve its portion of the interlocal agreement.
Feb. 5 – The Noblesville School Board will vote on the 1028 project, which begins the referendum process. The meeting will set the referendum amount at $25 or $28 million. The referendum can be stopped at any point after it begins if other organizations within the deal decline the agreement.
Feb. 6 – The Hamilton County Council will vote to approve its part of the interlocal agreement. Hamilton County Commissioner Steve Dillinger said council members Meredith Carter, Jim Belden and Steve Schwartz had committed yes votes. Council members Brad Beaver, Rick McKinney, Paul Ayers and Amy Massillamany are currently undecided.
Feb. 7 to May 7 – Several public forums and informative meetings will take place as the schools, city and county attempt to gain support for the project.
May 7 – Special referendum vote on the Noblesville Schools' bond. This is when the public will have the final say in bringing an Ivy Tech campus to Noblesville.

|A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two-Arm Parallel, Multicenter Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Dexmedetomidine in the Prevention of Postoperative Delirium in Subjects Undergoing Heart Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass
- Percentage of subjects who experienced any postoperative delirium up to 3 days following surgery [ Time Frame: Postoperative period (3-days): Twice daily (6:00 - 9:00 AM and 5:00 - 8:00 PM) ]The presence of postoperative delirium will be determined by the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM-ICU)
- Daily percentage of subjects who experienced postoperative delirium [ Time Frame: At each day during 3-day postoperative delirium ]
- Duration of postoperative delirium as determined by CAM-ICU up to 3 days post surgery [ Time Frame: Up to 3 days post surgery ]
- Postoperative use of all analgesics [ Time Frame: During postextubation period (Approximately 3 days) ]
- Time to extubation after arrival in ICU [ Time Frame: From the time of ICU arrival to the time of ICU discharge (Approximately 3 days) ]
- Length of ICU stay [ Time Frame: From the time of ICU arrival to the time of ICU discharge (Approximately 3 days) ]
|Study Start Date:
|April 2007
|Study Completion Date:
|September 2007
|Assigned Interventions
|Experimental: Dexmedetomidine
|Drug: Dexmedetomidine
|Placebo Comparator: Placebo (PBO)
|Drug: Placebo
Detailed Description:
Postoperative delirium is an acute decline in cognition and attention which is usually transient but when delirium persists, it can impact cognitive function, morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are no drugs to prevent delirium but dexmedetomidine has the potential to meet this unmet medical need.
Dexmedetomidine is currently approved for use for 24 hours in patients on ventilators in the Intensive Care Unit(ICU). This study is to determine whether or not dexmedetomidine can prevent delirium after heart surgery. Study participation will last from randomization prior to surgery, to 3 days after surgery. Dexmedetomidine will be given through an intravenous catheter beginning at sternal closure and continue throughout the stay in the ICU. Delirium will be assessed prior to surgery and for 72 hours after surgery. This assessment will consist of questions that will evaluate memory and thought process. Thirty days after surgery, questions will be asked regarding the patients feelings about their health status and hospital billing information will be collected.

When these first came to my awareness, I did not want to buy them. I was uncomfortable with the idea. Gradually, I realized, if they are allowed and made from fish we do eat, why not try them. I did and I liked the fish. I particularly like to take the fake shrimp and add some butter and garlic to it. It is delicious.
I decided to make a faux crab meat salad. The mock crab is fully cooked so all I had to do was cut it up into smaller pieces. I added a few ingredients and had a nice fish salad.
Mock Crab Meat Salad
1 cup faux crab
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons celery, chopped fine
Cut fish into small pieces, thick sliced.
Place fish in bowl and add celery. Mix together.
Combine lemon juice, pepper and sugar with the mayonnaise and add to fish-celery mixture.
Mix well and serve.
This is a good salad on a hot day. I found it to be cool and refreshing.
Eat and enjoy.

As anyone who cares anything about aviation no doubt already knows, this year will witness the 100th anniversary of the first flight of a manned and powered, heavier-than-air aircraft, on Dec. 17, 1903, by the Brothers Wright. It should be a happy occasion. But ironically, 2003 dawns with the threat of being one of the most tumultuous years in the history of aviation.
Some 16 months ago, on the emotion-charged afternoon of Sept. 11, 2001, the editors of AIN sat down together to determine how we would cover that horrendous day and the days to come. For the short term, our collective compass proved to be fairly accurate, plus or minus a few degrees, but it wasn't very good for more than a few "klicks" out.
There was no way that any of us, or anyone for that matter, could have foreseen security letters of authorization; the Transportation Security Agency; reinforced cockpit doors; the Department of Homeland Security; the Transportation Security Administration Access Protocol; the 12-5 and 95K security requirements; the prolonged economic recession; general aviation still barred from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport; the bankruptcies of US Airways, Midway and United Airlines; mandatory checking of all baggage; decreased sales across the board of new aircraft; the glut of pre-owned aircraft; widespread layoffs in aerospace; the serious possibility of war with Iraq; the sharp rise in insurance premiums; and many other things. Add to these previously mandated equipment requirements meant to improve safety or increase capacity, such as TAWS, RVSM, ELTs, upgraded mode-S and TCAS, and it's easy to see why the expense-to-earnings ratio of operating aircraft keeps going the wrong way.
When the going gets tough financially, the bean counters, God bless 'em, sharpen their pencils. And then pilots really need to watch out. Required maintenance starts being deferred. Minimum equipment lists become dusty. Bogus parts start looking more attractive. The subtle and not-so-subtle pressure to complete trips increases from chief executives ("You know, John, we really need this contract"), chief pilots ("If you don't like the schedule, Frank, I can easily find someone to take your place") and chief customers ("Dahling, I simply must make the opening by eight o'clock").
The pressure is unavoidable in times like these, but the essentials of professional airmanship remain unaffected by the state of the economy. What makes flying safe or unsafe does not change with fluctuations in the stock market. The importance of a meeting to a company's bottom line won't melt ice on the wings; the life-threatening injuries of a child won't cleave a path through a thunderstorm; and the promise of on-time delivery won't put fuel in the tanks. As safety consultants like to point out, "If you can't afford the cost of operating safely, how will you afford the cost of an accident?"
So here's a new year's resolution for you. As the economic and regulatory storm clouds build on the horizon, let's give this 100th year of aviation a real silver lining and make it the safest year ever. Resist the pressure to cut corners and do things you know you shouldn't do. Don't let yourself get to the point where you must rely on your superior skill to save your butt from a situation that a lapse in your usually superior judgment got you into. Let's do it right this year, so that when things do turn around in 2004 or 2005, or whenever, we'll all be around to see it.
(P.S. You are invited to copy this commentary and pass it around your flight department, give it to your boss and hand-deliver a copy to your accounting office.)
Saluting Aviation's Centennial, 1903-2003
Notwithstanding the current state of the industry, AIN intends to make the best of the 100 years since Orville made that first successful, 120-ft flight in the 600-lb Flyer from level ground at Kill Devil Hills, N.C., with Wilbur running alongside. Starting with this issue on page 14, AIN monthly editor Nigel Moll will each month recount by decade highlights from aviation's history in "A Century in Review," and conclude with a Centennial of Flight Special Report in the December issue. We'll also keep you apprised of special events relating to aviation's first century throughout the year.
So, Happy Centennial, everyone. May you walk away unscathed from all your landings this year and for the years to come.
What makes an AIN Newsmaker?
Some publications honor outstanding achievements every year, which is certainly laudable. AIN, on the other hand, selects newsmakers, which may not necessarily be an honor. By its very nature, news is not always good; in fact, it can often be bad for someone, or a lot of someones, which likely makes it of even greater import to those it affects. So it is quite possible that some of the AIN Newsmakers selected for 2002 (page 20), will be less than happy to see their stories again in print. We make no apologies. We don't make the news; we just try to report it fairly, accurately and without bias.
As conceived by AIN founding editor Jim Holahan, the rules for selecting newsmakers are simple. One, the person or event must be newsworthy; and two, the person or event must relate directly to our editorial focus on business and commercial aviation, regional airline operations or helicopters. In addition, people or events only indirectly related to our editorial focus, but of great national or international interest, can also be judged newsmakers.
AIN Newsmakers are selected by the editors in consultation together and with no consideration given to possible backlash from advertisers. Furthermore, Newsmakers receive no recognition from us other than what they get in the article itself.

Alastair Cook had Eoin Morgan's batting and the depth of England's pace-bowling resources to thank in near equal measure for victory over Australia in the first NatWest Series match.
Morgan's unbeaten 89 from 63 balls powered England to a defendable 272 for five at Lord's but Cook was well aware, after England's seventh successive one-day international win, that the efforts of his seam attack were hugely influential too.
"Australia got off to a good start - but what is very nice as a captain is when you have got five experienced bowlers like that," said Cook. "You know they might bowl the odd bad over but they don't bowl many bad spells, so we knew we would take it down to the wire."
After Australia had finished 15 runs short, despite half-centuries from captain Michael Clarke (61) and David Warner (56), Cook had praise for Morgan.
But he made sure the seam bowling of James Anderson, Steven Finn, Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan received honourable mention as well - along with wicketless off-spinner Graeme Swann.
Cook added: "We thought 270 was a par score ... defendable, yes, but if someone played out of their skin we probably couldn't have defended it.
"Thankfully we just kept nipping wickets at the right time."
Cook knows he is in a position of strength to be able to keep calling up a new bowler, fresh and able to wrest back an advantage.
"It's nice as a captain when you can keep pulling on bowlers of that quality.
"You take one off and another one keeps following up and keeps the pressure on. That's the idea, anyway! If we are being really harsh on ourselves I don't think it was a perfect performance in the field today, or close to it, so that's encouraging."

Transmeta rolls out long-awaited Efficeon processor
Post a comment
SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Transmeta Corp. today (Oct. 14, 2003) introduced its long-awaited Efficeon microprocessor family for low-power, x86-compatible computing.
Aimed at ultra-portable and mainstream notebook computers, the 130-nm version of the Efficeon processor family will run at clock speeds of 1-GHz and above. Systems based on the processor are expected to begin shipping in the fourth quarter.
The 90-nm version of the processor will run up to 2-GHz and will ship in the second half of 2004.
The Efficeon includes a redesigned version of Transmeta's code morphing software. The microarchitecture is based on a 256-bit very long instruction word (VLSI) processor that can issue up to 8 internal instructions per clock cycle.
When combined with the new code morphing software, the chip provides compatibility with MMX, SSE and SSE2 multimedia instructions. Efficeon also supports AGP-4X graphics, DDR-400 SDRAM memories, and a HyperTransport interconnect.
Initially, the 130-nm version of Efficeon will be manufactured for Transmeta by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. Starting in the second half of 2004, the 90-nm version of Efficeon will be manufactured for Transmeta by Fujitsu Ltd.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 2/10/2013 (1420 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
What do a mother, a grandmother, a nurse, a clown and a minister have in common?
They are one and the same in Rev. Joanne Kury, the new minister at Headingley United Church.
Sometimes our careers evolve and change as we seek our real calling in the world. Kury found hers over time.
Her first career was that of a public health nurse. Married with four children, and moving from Brandon to Edmonton to Yellowknife, she grew weary of grueling 12-hour shifts.
She began exploring "worship in whiteface", a form of miming whereby the service is done in silence and travelled with a performing group doing this type of service throughout Edmonton. She found this so interesting that she subsequently studied at St. Stephens College in Alberta.
This combination of study time at home while caring for her young family was just what she needed.
Once back in Winnipeg, Kury spent time serving at Stella Mission in Winnipeg, where she truly fell in love with the work and the children they helped.
The rest is history, as the saying goes. Thus began a two-year pastoral charge at Warren Meadow Lea, Man., as minister. She enjoyed the diversity of that congregation and community.
Upon being commissioned as a United Church Diaconal Minister, she spent 14 years serving at Charleswood United Church.
"I was ready to embrace a change" says Kury. "I am excited about getting to know the people in this community."
Kury expects to be active in the community, not only in the church on Sundays.
And yes, she is also a clown!
This talent to captivate audiences is put to good use during the children's time at Sunday service. Kury can share a story that educates both children and adults alike.
When she's not at work, Kury enjoys spending time with her four grandchildren, doing genealogical research, gardening and sailing.
Kury was officially installed at her new posting as minister for the Joint Pastoral Charge of St. Charles-Headingley at a special covenanting service Sept. 22.
Her time will be shared between the two churches. Sunday services are held at Headingley United Church at 11 a.m. and "all are welcome," she says.

Hometown guy: Jim Laffrenzen retires after 42 years of working for city
WORTHINGTON -- As the newbie on the Worthington Street Department in late 1970, one of Jim Laffrenzen's first tasks was to walk in front of what was then the city's sole snowblower, directing its path and that of the drivers who were hauling off the snow.
"It was cold, and you had to dodge ice chunks, but it was a job," he recalled. "Those first seven winters, I probably spent 15 to 18 hours straight every time it snowed out in front of that blower."
Today, Jim officially begins his retirement after 42 years in the City of Worthington's employ. During those four decades, he worked his way up through the ranks, starting as the "low man on the totem pole" and ending his tenure with the title superintendent of public works.
"I had my mind made up, if I was going to work for the city of Worthington, I was going to take advantage of every opportunity to move up," he said.
Born and raised on a farm outside of Worthington, Jim didn't give much thought to ever living anywhere else. He graduated from high school in 1967 and the local junior college in 1969.
"My parents were here, my relatives were here, and I never had any reason to leave Worthington," he said. "This is where my home was, where I felt comfortable."
Shortly after his high school graduation, Jim was approached by Burt Broste, manager of Lampert Yards. He was looking for a manager trainee, and Jim had shown an aptitude for such a career on a high school career test.
"But the draft was on, and I didn't have my draft fulfillment done yet, and he needed someone who had that done," Jim explained. "But he also had a part-time job available, so I took that."
A fellow Lampert employee, Bill Boltjes, encouraged Jim to go over to Jackson and enlist in the National Guard in order to fulfill that draft obligation. After completing his National Guard training, he returned to Lampert Yards.
"Bill Boltjes told me that he was looking for another job, and then he got a job with the street department," recalled Jim. "So I told him, 'If anything comes up at the city, let me know.' I knew that any business could close, but the city would always be there."
Boltjes followed through on that promise, and pretty soon the street superintendent, Tom Moore, paid Jim a visit.
"Bill is moving up to the engineering department, and he said I should hire you. You wanna work for the city?'" recounted Jim about the conversation. "I said, 'You bet.' So Bill got me that job. I took a 50 cent pay cut, started at $1.25 an hour."
In those early years, Jim's duties included being a snowblower spotter, plowing snow, trimming trees, filling potholes and making street signs.
"When I started out, we made all the street signs by hand, and I spent the entire winter doing that," he recalled. "We'd buy the blanks, all the letters, and we vacuum-heated everything. When Northland Mall was built, I made all the fire lane signs for them, and when they put up the Peace Avenue of Flags, I did those, too. They're pretty well all gone by now."
In 1978, Jim achieved the title of street foreman.
"I ran the street department, and the airport was part of that," he said. "Then, in September 1992, Randy Griffith was director of public works, and he decided to take early retirement. He called me in and said, 'We need someone in this office to keep things going here, for six weeks or whatever it takes to fill the position.'"
Six weeks turned into two months, and Jim finally approached then-city administrator Greg Sparks about when a replacement would be hired. Instead, the city council decided to make an internal move, and gave Jim the job permanently.
"I wasn't looking for this one," said Jim with a laugh. "That was a challenge. Alice Hoffman was the secretary, and she and I learned a lot together."
The encompassing title of "public works" added a few more departments to Jim's jurisdiction.
"As it stands, public works involves streets, parks, airport, and then just a bunch of catch-all stuff," Jim explained. "What nobody else wanted, Jim got."
As Jim reflects on his lengthy career with the city, he marvels at just how much things have changed over the years. The city crews are significantly smaller than they were when he started, largely due to cuts in the state's Local Government Aid; the equipment they use is significantly better; and technology is used in just about every aspect of his job.
"Now we can get done in eight days what used to take six weeks," he recalled. "Here in the office, I would write something up, Alice would type it up, I would proof it, and then she would retype it. Now we have the computer and the cellphone -- my office away from the office. In this job, you're in the office a lot, but working in the field some, too. My philosophy from Day One was that you're only as good as that person below you, and you'd better be able to do the job they're doing, too. I've lived by that all my life."
One of his key duties has been "moving projects along."
"That's been really rewarding the last five, six years, in how the community has moved forward," he said. "I know the sale of the hospital was a controversial thing, but it provided some golden opportunities."
In recent years, for instance, the playground equipment in all of Worthington's parks has been upgraded to the latest safety standards. New basketball and volleyball courts were added at Centennial Park. The boat landing at Ehlers Park has been hard-surfaced, and a handicapped fishing pier was installed at Freedom Shore Park.
"And the airport. People don't realize -- I didn't realize -- how important an asset the airport is," he said, recalling an instance from a couple of years ago when a man in need of serious medical attention couldn't get to a medical facility in Sioux Falls, S.D., because of blizzard conditions. But an aircraft could fly into the Worthington airport and transport the man for the needed care. "That's a lifeline out there. That's why I push so hard for the airport. It also brings businesses into our community.
"I'm proud of our parks, proud of the airport," continued Jim. "And the streets, too. I'm leaving at the optimal time. The council, over the last 10 to 15 years, has been proactive in maintaining our infrastructure. We've basically reconstructed the streets, and that's how we get by with the manpower we get by with. I just feel really good about leaving. We've done a lot of good planning and done some positive things."
Something that Jim won't miss in retirement are the phone calls in the middle of the night informing him about a slick street intersection or having to send out the plows in the wee hours. He looks forward to nights of uninterrupted sleep and spending more time with his family. He and wife Paula --married for 41 years -- have two daughters, Michelle and Dawn, and three grandchildren, all who live a short drive away in Sioux Falls.
"They've already got me booked up," said Jim. "We bought a camper travel-trailer, and last summer was our first year camping. It has three bunks in the back for the grandkids. We like to go to the state parks."
Paula is still employed as a paraprofessional at Worthington Middle School, and Jim anticipates that she'll have a "honey-do" list ready for him.
"But my big hobby is I repair and finish old furniture," he said, crediting a neighbor, John M. Jansen, with getting him hooked on the pastime. "I started doing that for other people. I like to take an old piece of furniture -- I don't care how dilapidated -- and bring it back to life. I really enjoy that, and I think I'll enjoy it more now that I can go out there and take my time. I'd also like to do some volunteering."
Jim feels like he still has a lot to contribute to his community -- just in a different capacity than he has done for the last 42 years.
"My goal, if I didn't do anything else, has always been to treat everyone in this community on an equal basis," he said. "I tried to do what was best for the community. It's been a wonderful, wonderful experience to serve the community, and as a public employee, that's what your job is.... I've always considered myself a servant of the people. This community has been good to me. It's been a good ride."

Rutherford – Wines That Give Back
Man I wish I wasn't flying to Portland Sunday night, hate to miss this.
The next stop in the Appellation Series from Small Lots, Big Wines is not an appellation at all. This tour celebrates wines that give back. Each of the wineries who will be pouring at this event either give a portion or all of their profits back to charity. In addition to supporting charities for kids, the homeless, and to promote literacy, some wineries will be pouring to support the Rutherford Grange. This is a great venue for you to go Christmas shopping. What better gift is there to give then one that gives twice?
In addition to great wineries such as Clark-Claudon, Humanitas, Cleavage Creek, and Ehlers, we'll also feature local Sonoma cheeses, art on sale, and 12 year old Isaac Tyner playing guitar to raise money for Camp Okizu, a camp for kids with cancer and their families. There will be raffles to raise additional funds for the Grange as well.
The cost is $15 per person. $5 of every ticket sale goes back to the Grange. To learn more about the Grange please go to www.rutherfordgrange.com. Please RSVP or prepay ASAP so that we can ensure we have enough cheese and wine.
For more info or any questions call 707-254-5152 or email email@example.com
That's the wrap-up. If I get any missed events sent to me will add them back in. Enjoy your Festive weekend, and don't forget as you shop for gifts to buy Local!
p.s. Next Friday I am hosting my next Facebook Wine Meetup, as we put the "social' in Social Media. We expect at least 20-30 people ranging from avid consumers, to several small winery owners. Hope to see and meet many of you!

text: By Pete Najarian, co-founder of OptionMonsterNEW YORK -- Options were bullish Monday on the financials, which have been solid recently and were key to Monday's broad market rally. The paper was especially heavy in Bank of America ( BAC), which rallied 3.97% to finish the session at $11. More than 680,000 contracts traded in the name, including 473,000 calls, according to OptionMonster's scanners. The December and January contracts dominated the activity, led by the December 11s, which traded in large size for 5 cents to 11 cents. These options expire at the end of this week, so traders are looking for the stock to keep moving in the near term. Calls lock in the price where investors can buy stock, so the options can generate nice leverage if the bet is right. However, they can become worthless in a hurry if it's not. Morgan Stanley ( MS) also lit up our systems, with almost 52,000 contracts changing hands. January was the main target, so those options are definitely looking for a new year's pop in the bank's shares. The stock rose 2.66% to $18.53, while calls outnumbered puts by about 34,000 to 17,700. Najarian owns BAC calls.

first off, isn't the fruitvale march a permitted action, and very unfriendly toward anarchists/radicals? this can't go well at all.
and secondly, why make a call for this so late, when there are other anarchist actions in the bay? i'm sure the SF anti-capitalist march would welcome an APOC/Queer contingent, while trying to interfere with the fruitvale march would only cause problems, and draw people away from the SF action.
Sunday Apr 28th, 2013 6:03 PM
we're forming a contingent to join the oakland march because we live here and we're part of the community.
we want to participate in the march, not disrupt it. and also give voice, and a space, for those who wish to bring up issues immigration reform fails to address.
Sunday Apr 28th, 2013 7:37 PM
I love how Maoist shills continue to use the term "autonomous" like they used to use "anti-authoritarian" to show how down they are with certain anarchists. Pretty clever. Sure you're "part of the community" but are you a wanted or appreciated part? Judging from the bureaucrats and identity politicians who ran the march last year, I'd have to say No. Go for it though; it fits right in with the other Oakland May Day march demanding $15. Bigger Cages, Longer Chains!
Sunday Apr 28th, 2013 8:12 PM
haters gonna hate when you they see you doin' good. self determination's on the rise in the town. see folks there!
Sunday Apr 28th, 2013 11:11 PM
No indication that the autonomous anarchist people of color contingent is in any way organized by Maoists. You must be confusing this contingent with the sectarian RCP demonstration happening at the same time up the road.
Glad to see comrades bringing up important issues at the march that wouldn't be addressed otherwise, like how bigger cages and longer chains are not progress.
Tuesday Apr 30th, 2013 12:19 AM
Will EX Maoist Jean Quan be invited to speak ? Maybe since ''Sin Fronteras ''is closely connected to the Democratic Party and Quan's admin. Last year Sin Fronteras actively tried to disrupt the mostly Latino Immigrant lead ''Dignity and Resistance'' May day march by scare mongering aimed at Occupy Oakland . They eventually lead a small split to prevent the march from, (as Quan and OPD Jordan feared ) reaching downtown Oakland . But most ignored that and continued on to Oscar Grant Plaza.
So if this contingent can help challenge this ''Identity politics'' Liberal bloc more power to them .
PS Since tens if not hundreds of thousands of workers in Northern Cal make less than they need to live decently i think you would have a hard time convincing them that fighting for a Living wage of $15 an hour isn't worth fighting for .
Wednesday May 1st, 2013 1:17 PM
I'm not sure why people think this is Maoists, it isn't. And it isn't sin fronterras either.
Thursday May 2nd, 2013 10:20 AM
it's pathetic we have white kids still calling black/brown self-determination 'identity politics' and shilling for occupy, there is nothing revolutionary about sucking the white mans dick. We don't need you.
Thursday May 2nd, 2013 10:53 AM
Neither white nor a kid nor an unquestioning shill for Occupy. So nice that you could fit all your assumptions into one sentence. There were a zillion things wrong with Occupy Oakland, but the principle of No Demands was not one of them. Once upon a time there was a caucus within the broader anarchist milieu in the US and Canada based on the self-organization of POC. Within a year it had devolved into another oppression olympics. People who identified as biracial or "mixed" were greeted with skepticism if not outright suspicion, and the dominant discourse began revolving around reformist campaigns for living wages and civil rights. That's identity politics: a way for certain organizers to find their niche while auditioning for the non-profit industrial complex. It's not about power to the (black and brown - what no yellow or red?) people, but about power for a few politicians. In case you hadn't noticed, anarchists usually wish to abolish relations of power.
Tuesday May 7th, 2013 10:27 PM
I don't fit into Moreno 's false category either .
BTW Trick Question : Was Che Guevara a ''Man of color '' ?

I came across this thread and instantly thought, "I don' t do reading challenges" but this seems to be quite flexible and "set your own rules", that I think I just might. Having a new e-Reader makes it more desirable to have a goal.
I don't want to set a target number. Since this is my first time, I'll just see how many I read in 2012 to maybe establish a guideline for '13. I don't even know if I am a slow or fast reader really.
Here are my goals:When I finish a book, I will write a note on my e-reader and put it in a collection called "2012 Reading Challenge"
I have a few library books I am waiting for. I would like to read them and finish them in the duration of the loan period.
I dozens of classics that I know the cultural reference to, yet have never read fully. I would like to read more of them.
There are some Canada Reads books I've not yet gotten to from various years. I would like to obtain them if the library has them, and read them.

The release date of the much anticipated thriller has now been postponed to November
Aamir Khan's fans were waiting with bated breath to catch the actor's psychological thriller this June. But with the release date of Reema Kagti's directorial Talaash being postponed they have to wait a little longer than expected. The actor said to a trade publication that Talaash is very close to his heart. He had been trying to release it in January, then it got pushed to June. He admitted that the date will now be either November 30 or December 7 and he apologised, saying, "I am sorry for this; I know my fans are waiting for Talaash."
The perfectionist that he is, Khan believes in doing one project at a time and hence has decided to devote his time and energy solely to his upcoming television show Satyamev Jayate for now. "Right now my life revolves around the show. My team and I are trying to do something different. I have been working on this show for the last two years. This is my life's most ambitious project," he added. Aamir has been keeping mum on the nature of his TV show as wants to keep it a secret till it is aired on TV. He promises that it's a show like no other and therefore it is difficult for him to explain the format. The actor who turned 47 today said to the publication, "I am very excited about my television debut. I usually spend my birthday with my family, but today I will be leaving for the shoot of my television show."
With all the hullabaloo about Satyamev Jayate, Aamir barely has the time to be involved in matters concerning Talaash. Disclosing further details behind the delay, he said, "The reason behind the delay is the show I was doing. The set caught fire and it was entirely destroyed. So, the show got delayed a bit. And now I am focusing only on the show, which is impacting the release date of Talaash." Reportedly, the 3 Idiots' actor will continue to shoot his TV show for another two months post which he plans to take a two-month break before working on Talaash again. "Both are very close to me. I can't give justice to both at the same time. So, I discussed with Reema and we decided to push the release date of the film." Clearly, Aamir wants to be totally focused on whatever he undertakes without overlapping his projects. But the results he delivers in the end are nothing short of record-breaking, don't you think?

Association between malocclusion and temporomandibular disorder in orthodontic patients before treatment
The association between malocclusion and the prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) was studied in an orthodontic patient population before orthodontic treatment was started. A total of 305 patients, 232 with general malocclusion and 73 who also had cleft lip or palate, were given a questionnaire about the subjective symptoms of TMD. Clinical examinations for type of malocclusion and TMD signs were also conducted. No significant differences in the prevalence of TMD were observed between the sexes or between the two patient groups. Temporomandibular joint sounds and difficulty of jaw movement were the most common of the TMD signs and symptoms. Open bite, posterior crossbite, and deep bite were the most prevalent types of malocclusion in both groups. Thus, some specific types of malocclusion were significantly associated with the occurrence of TMD.

Yep. I have to say that Technobutter Neoprene is the by far the best thing I have seen from the wetsuit industry this year. I'm waiting for this suit(or the Psycho 3) to win wetsuit of the year. It's funny because I haven't heard a lot of hype behind it, but it's awesome. For the past few weeks I have been wearing the Pyrotech 5.5/4 Hooded Wetsuit, and it honestly is so lightweight and flexible it feels like a 4/3. Being a tall and lean guy(5'11" 157lbs) I fit the O'Neill suits perfect. I'm wearing a size small because this thing is that flexible. It pretty much feels like a second skin, and is extremely comfortable.
As far as warmth goes, it's a 5.5/4mm suit so you're covered into the upper 40's no problem as long as you have some solid boots and gloves to go along with it. It also has a smooth skin chest and back panel that helps break the wind, and trap in heat.
The construction overall is very solid in this suit. It is a high end wetsuit, and all the suits I have owned from O'Neill in the past have held up great. Durability on this suit with the new Technobutter neoprene is yet to be seen I suppose, however I previously owned the RG8, which was the model before the Pyrotech and after a year and a half the seams are all doing great and the suit is still pretty warm. Only the knee has worn through slightly from duck diving(which you shouldn't do with your knee anyways).
All in all this is my favorite suit of all time. It may not be quite the warmest suit out there due to it's lack of fleece lining, but the thickness does a good job of making up for that. As far as flexibility I don't know a better suit that is equal in warmth. Coming form someone who has worn a handful of wetsuits from most of the major brands I hope this endorsement carries some weight. The Fall 2013 Pyrotech is well worth it.
