South Strabane Township attorney Lane Turturice Tuesday joined the growing list of candidates seeking election to one of two vacant seats on Court of Common Pleas of Washington County.
This will be Turturice's second attempt at securing a judicial seat. The 39-year-old California native ran in 2011 for the seat left open by the death of Judge Mark Mascara.
"Two years ago, in my first run for judge, I traveled Washington County and had the opportunity to talk with thousands of citizens to learn about the issues that are most important to them," he said. "Based on my conversations with them, Washington County wants a judge that has the courage to protect our individual freedoms and liberties and who is committed to preserving, protecting and keeping our families safe."
Turturice lost that election by a slim margin to Judge Gary Gilman.
This year's election will fill the seats left vacant by the retirements of judges Janet Moschetta Bell and Paul Pozonsky.
"Washington County is dealing with a judicial crisis with the loss of two of its judges who both together handled civil, criminal and juvenile cases," Turturice said. "So, the next judge must possess a diverse background of legal experience in order to immediately begin tackling the expected backlog of cases."
Turturice began his legal career as an associate with the firm Bassi, McCune and Vreeland. He then served as a Washington County assistant district attorney for more than five years, during which he said he handled numerous jury and nonjury trials as well as having prosecuted thousands of criminal cases and administered the county's fast track program.
"One of the most important and rewarding duties I had as an ADA was as a child advocate and juvenile prosecutor," he stated. "I have always had a heart for children, and I intend to carry that with me onto the bench and will do whatever is legally permissible to protect the health and safety of children and their families."
For the past eight years, Turturice has maintained a private practice with his partner, Tim Berggren. He currently serves as legal counsel to more than 14 municipal entities including the city of Washington, the Greene County Housing Authority and Bethlehem-Center School District.
Turturice is a member of the Washington County Bar Association, having served on its executive committee, as president of the Young Lawyers Division and Zone 6 chair of the Pennsylvania Bar Association Young Lawyers Division. He is past chair of the Pennsylvania Bar Association House of Delegates; founding member and past chair of the Juvenile Law Section of the Washington County Bar Association; a high school mock trial team coach; and participant in the Washington County Bar Association's Pro Bono Project. In 2005, the Washington Rotary Club awarded him the Club Service Award.
"I am not part of the political establishment or machine politics," he stated. "As a judge, I will be completely free of political and personal influences."
Although a registered Republican, Turturice said he will cross-file in the primary election. Other candidates include Valarie Costanzo, Blane Black, Peter Marcoline and Michael Lucas.
Turturice and his wife are the parents of four children.

Cecil OKs police public works contracts
Cecil Township supervisors approved contracts on Feb. 4 with the township's police and public works departments.
Township Manager Don Gennuso said the supervisors approved the contracts with only Supervisor Elizabeth Cowden objecting.
According to Gennuso, the township had begun negotiations with the Cecil Township Police Wage and Policy Unit, which represents the township's 14 officers, early last year in anticipation of the contract expiring Dec. 31. Officers had been working the past few weeks under terms of the old contract.
The new three-year contract calls for a 3.5 percent salary increase over the life of the contract, while officers will now pay a $700 yearly flat rate for their health insurance. Police officers previously paid $450 annually.
Public works employees, members of Teamsters Local 205, will receive a 3 percent salary increase over the course of their four-year contract.
The workers' health care contributions will be $600 in the first year of the contract, with a $50 increase in each subsequent year. They had previously paid 1.5 percent of their base salary, Gennuso said.
The public works department contract also expired Dec. 31.

A new Monica Lewinsky "sex tape" is reportedly set to drop, featuring a recording of Lewinsky planning an amorous encounter with President Bill Clinton in 1997.
Radar Online published written excerpts of the alleged three-minute recording, which is said to be in Thursday's new issue of the National Enquirer, but is not online yet.
According to Radar, the former White House intern told Clinton she was "too cute and adorable" to be ignored. Clinton's voice is not heard.
"I could take my clothes off and start…well…I know you wouldn't enjoy that? I hope to see you later and I hope you will follow my script and do what I want," Lewinsky reportedly said in the recording.
Lewinsky reportedly suggested Clinton use his secretary to help orchestrate a covert meetup.
"Now the first thing that has to happen is that you need to pre-plan with Betty that you will leave the office at, I don't know, at 7, 7:30 so that everyone else who hates me that causes me lots of trouble goes home," she said. "Then you quickly sneak back and then in the meantime I quickly sneak over and then we can have a nice little visit for, you know, 15 minutes or half an hour. Whatever you want."
According to Radar, the tape was believed to have been destroyed, but a secret copy was made and is now surfacing.
In it, Lewinsky also reportedly suggested watching a movie with Clinton and having "I don't know, boxed dinners or something like that."
"And then that way we don't have to deal with the problem of me…of there being a record of me going upstairs and we can spend some time together and see a good movie," she said. "So I don't know, those are two proposals and you can't refuse me because I'm too cute and adorable and soon I won't be here anymore to pop over. … I'm very persistent, but um… I really want to see you."

KFC appears to be embarrassed and engaging in damage control after a 3-year-old girl who was injured in a pit bull attack and forced to wear an eye patch was asked by an employee to leave a KFC restaurant because other customers were uncomfortable with the girl's appearance.
The incident led some would-be customers to consider boycotting KFC, and then the company's headquarters apologized and said it will donate $30,000 to help pay Victoria Wilcher's medical costs.
The events started when, earlier this month, the girl's grandmother, Kelly Mullins, took Victoria to a KFC in Jackson, Miss.
"I ordered a large sweet tea and her some mashed potatoes and gravy because she was hungry," Mullins told WAPT.
"She was on a feeding tube at the time, but I figured she could just swallow (the potatoes). They just told us, they said, 'We have to ask you to leave because her face is disrupting our customers.' (Victoria) understood exactly what they said," CNN quoted the grandmother's statement to WAPT.
Mullins said her granddaughter cried as the two went home.
"She's got a lot of surgeries to go through and she won't even look in the mirror anymore," Mullins added in the statement to WAPT. "When we go to a store, she doesn't even want to get out (of the car). She's 3 years old and she's embarrassed about what she looks like. She's embarrassed and I hate it because she shouldn't be. It ain't her fault."
In response to the incident, KFC reportedly said on its Facebook page, "As soon as we learned of the report… we immediately began an investigation. This kind of hurtful and disrespectful action would not be tolerated by KFC. Regardless of the outcome of our investigation, we have apologized to Victoria's family and are committed to assisting them. We are making a $30,000 donation to help with her medical bills. The entire KFC family is behind Victoria and her recovery."
In addition, The Jackson Clarion-Ledger got a tweet from the KFC, "We are working hard to make this right for the family. We do not tolerate the behavior that happened in our restaurant."
According to news reports, Victoria suffered a broken upper jaw, a broken lower jaw, broken nose, and injuries to cheekbones and right eye socket, and she lost the use of her right eye.
Meanwhile, in response to the incident at KFC, Charles Irvin, legal director of the ACLU of Mississippi, said in a statement to InsideCounsel, "The ACLU of Mississippi is dedicated to promoting, defending, and extending civil liberties to all Mississippians. We will monitor the situation and continue to monitor the response of KFC to the actions of their employees. No one should endure humiliation, disrespect or any other form of discrimination. We must always remain vigilant to any acts which degrade basic human dignity and hold responsible any who disregard this principle."
The Victoria's Victories Facebook page was set up by the family to follow medical progress for the girl and help raise money for her medical care.

The Washington County commissioners were dining on crow Thursday, but in doing so, others may enjoy a tastier meal.
The commissioners of Washington and Beaver counties entered into a friendly bet of a food bank donation riding on the outcome of the WPIAL Class AA football championship.
Because Washington High School lost the WPIAL championship to Aliquippa 34-7 Nov. 23 at Heinz Field, Washington County commissioners Larry Maggi and Harlan Shober journeyed Thursday morning to Beaver to pay up during the Beaver County commissioners' meeting.
Marie Trossman, commission Vice Chairman Diana Irey Vaughan's administrative assistant, said she was unable to attend because she was convalescing from a surgical procedure.
But all three commissioners contributed "from our personal funds," Maggi emphasized, to a $100 donation for the Beaver County Salvation Army Food Bank.
Although they won the bet, the Beaver County commissioners reciprocated with an in-kind donation to the hungry in Washington County.
Once Maggi and Shober returned to Washington County, they fulfilled another requirement of the bet: flying a red, white and blue Beaver County flag in the Courthouse Square Plaza.
"Do I have to touch this?" Shober said with a sheepish smile as he and Maggi clipped the flag to the rope.
"Can you see Beaver County alright?" Shober asked.
"I'll bet no one notices," he added after he and Maggi hoisted the standard of the county located north of northwestern Washington County.
"It was two good football teams," Maggi said. "Unfortunately, someone had to lose," noting Salvation Army representatives were in Beaver to witness the donation, along with some representatives of the town of Aliquippa.

Obama Asks Congress to Help Create Jobs
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is challenging Congress to help him create jobs and rebuild the nation's infrastructure.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama points to the launch of two new high-tech manufacturing hubs and a competition to rebuild the nation's roads, bridges, mass transit, ports and railroads. Obama says Congress can help in both areas.
He says a bill now before Congress would create a network of high-tech manufacturing hubs all across the country. And he says he'll send Congress a budget next week that would rebuild transportation systems and support millions of jobs.
In the Republican address, Rep. Ann Wagner of Missouri is asking the president to explain government reports that up to 11 million workers will pay higher insurance premiums because of the new health care law.

Perfect fishing holiday in Norway
Norway | Norway is not only a very popular holiday destination because of its breathtaking nature. It is also a paradise for fishing enthusiasts. Deep sea fishing in the North Sea, coastal fishing at the banks of the fjords, freshwater fishing at one of over thousand lakes or demanding salmon fishing in mountain rivers – there is something for every fishermen. And the abundance of fish almost guarantees a perfect fishing day.
At the coast where you are very likely to encounter coal fish, mackerel and cod fishing is mainly free of charge. This means simply "cast the fishing rod and off you go!" When angling in rivers and lakes in the mainland usually a local fishing fee applies. Information on fees and regulation can usually be obtained from the local tourist information or at fishing and sports shops.
In order to guarantee a perfect fishing vacation you should book the appropriate holiday house. This way you keep your independence as many holiday homes are ideally equipped for fishing holidays. When using the atraveo search just click on "Further characteristics", then on "Special properties" and then choose "Fishing holidays". You will get a selection of houses which usually provide filleting tables, large deep freezers and possibly a barbecue. Most of these houses are situated right next to a body of water – whether coast, lake or river depends on the region and location you are looking for – and then usually provide a small jetty and a rowing or motor boat.
What could be better for a fishing enthusiast after a successful day than sitting in the evening on the holiday house's terrace, enjoying Norway's great nature whilst the catch of the day is cooking on the barbecue.
Popular regions for a Norway holiday with atraveo customers are: Norway's fjords, Norway's mountains, the area around the Oslo Fjord as well the island group Lofoten.

16-year-old charged in second robbery
Citizen Staff Reports 09/27/12
The same 16-year-old male arrested Sept. 23 in connection with a robbery on West Broad Street in Short Pump that day has now been charged in connection with an armed robbery that occurred at SkateNation Plus in Short Pump Sept. 20.
Henrico Police announced today that the juvenile, from Richmond, was charged with two counts of robbery, two counts of use of a firearm in commission of a felony, two counts of possession of a firearm as a minor and two counts of sexual battery, all relating to the incident in the SkateNation parking lot.
That incident took place at about 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 20. Two women were approached by the assailant, who displayed a gun, touched both women inappropriately and stole several items from them.
In the Sept. 23 incident, the teen was charged with two counts of robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Police responded Sunday afternoon to the 11100 block of West Broad Street, following the report of a robbery, and later pulled over a car at Belvidere Street near West Broad Street matching the description given by victims. The 16-year-old was the passenger in that car.

The newly opened Casablanca restaurant at the corner of W. San Francisco Street and Burro Alley is not a white house. The culinary appeal of Casablanca the film has been dead ever since Denny's included the "Play It Again, Slam" on its so-called Grand Slam menu. So we'll assume a genuine and welcome Moroccan connection.
The menu, however, is the usual broad-based Mediterranean and North African amalgam of cultural influences—from baba ghanoush to baklava, from couscous to kebabs—filtered through the lens of American ingredients. There's nothing so distinct as a tajine on offer, for example.
There are unexpected additions though: pizzettas on pita crusts and a slate of breakfast burritos and omelets.
After sampling the beef shawarma sandwich, the falafel sandwich, a tahini salad, platters of tabouleh and dolmas, and the requisite breakfast burrito, I am prepared to declare them fine.
Not "fine" as implied by the sign above the door that reads "fine Mediterranean restaurant," but fine as in "acceptable," fine as in "edible."
But there's no point in beating up on a restaurant that's only been open for a few days. Everyone needs time to iron out the kinks. And who among us can be anything but inappropriately aroused by the potential for downtown—right next to the Lensic downtown, right across from Matador downtown—access to falafel?
Central Santa Fe's soul needs Casablanca to succeed. But I doubt I can help by asking who thinks pita really makes the best pizza crust or why the s'hug hot sauce is so bullied by the overriding flavor of jalapeño or what condiment mobster is preventing my falafel from being absolutely slathered in tahini.
Instead, I'd rather fantasize about the San Francisco Street Med café of my dreams.
If it's bold enough to serve breakfast burritos across the street from Tia Sophia's, it should be bold enough to serve some unconventional burritos. A falafel and harissa potato breakfast burrito would be a good start—handheld please, for busy downtown workers and the later bar crowd. Or how about fried eggplant and tahini, or shawarma with tabouleh-scrambled eggs and a spicy kalamata tapenade? Or maybe a falafel, bacon and fried egg breakfast sandwich. Forget what convention says is Mediterranean or Southwestern—steal from both and use everything in between. Why not a lamb merguez tempura with a green chile baba ghanoush?
OK, not every off-the-cuff idea makes a menu item, but creativity is the key. The tater tots that came with my breakfast burrito at Casablanca are a good start—kinda weird, but also fun. I don't want the same kefta I can get at a thousand carts and counters across the country. I want something to remember. I want something to covet. I want something to brag about: "You know a lot of people think Paris has the best falafel—some say Beirut, some say Tel Aviv—but the truth is, Santa Fe does."
The falafel sandwich is key, as is a hand-ground blend of garbanzo and fava beans. The pita must be fresh-baked—not too doughy—and drenched in a tahini balanced enough to not taste like halvah. The hot sauce must be perfect and plentiful, piquant and complex, mean enough to catch in your throat as you inhale but temperate enough to be tenderly tongued. Additional ingredients should span a host of creative options: cabbage, escabeche, hand-cut french fries, rice, radishes and mozzarella balls. And why not that fried egg again?
The Casablanca of my dreams serves until at least 11 pm, if only on the weekends (and Tuesdays, please!), and if only a limited menu of carry-out falafel, kebab and shawarma.
Casablanca is a couple of weeks away from being able to accept credit cards and a couple of months away from getting its beer and wine license. The dust is still settling and the future is unclear. Maybe it can evolve toward the jaw-dropping joint of my dreams to be the envy of Paris. Maybe it has a more modest and refined future.
Either way, as-salamu alaykum and good luck.
Open 7 am-9:30 pm daily
207 W. San Francisco St.

SF's Spear honored as Good Samaritan Hero
For more than 20 years, Richard Spear of South Fayette Township has tirelessly worked to improve the lives of disadvantaged youth in impoverished countries. His work includes the creation and maintenance of several orphanages in Haiti and Colombia.
For his humanitarian work across the globe, Spear will receive the Good Samaritan Hero Award at the fifth annual American Red Cross Heroes Breakfast event Sept. 26 at Consol Energy Center.
From the age of 12, Spear was inspired by his mother to leave a legacy of humanitarian, lifesaving work. His mother, who performed charity work in the community, taught her son that small acts of kindness could go a very long way.
"When I was 12 years old we had neighbors who were poor, and my mother asked me to go over with her and help them clean their home," said Spear. "We did it and they were so happy, and it makes you stop and think, 'I just did a little bit of work and these people are happy.' That just stayed with me."
Throughout his career, Spear dedicated his work to teaching and inspiring youth at Duquesne University. Spending more than 20 years as the university's baseball coach, Spear later took on a less demanding role to fulfill his dream of helping others.
"I took a position that gave me the most free time, the role of intramural director at the University," said Spear. "And the reason I did that was because I had decided after giving up baseball that I wanted to work for an orphanage."
Through personal research and referrals from close friends, Spear recognized that Colombia was a country that would benefit from prospering orphanages.
"I chose Cali, Colombia, because, through reading in magazines and through television, I knew that they were having tremendous trouble with the Communist guerillas and the drug trade; so, I decided that I would go to Cali," said Spear.
After making this decision, Spear traveled to the country and visited six functioning orphanages. He took a specific interest in the Cali Orphanage for Girls.
Inspired by the need for funding and overall progression, Spear dedicated nearly 20 years to improve the conditions at the orphanage.
As Spear continued his work throughout Cali, he expanded into Haiti, a country he had visited Haiti many times. "I knew the poverty was so great there, so I decided to find an orphanage, which I did, a very poor orphanage and I told them I was going to help them."
Two weeks following his trip to Haiti, the earthquake of 2010 struck the country, devastating millions of Haitians, including Spear's selected orphanage. Although Spear thought that his efforts might come to a complete halt in Haiti, he received an email from one of the orphanage's employees requesting assistance. In two years, Spear replaced the destroyed orphanage with a newly built structure, providing refuge and a safe haven for 32 children.
"Every child in the orphanage never had a bed, never had water, never had electricity. They had very little food and for the first time in their lives, they were protected ... it just makes you want to do more," said Spear.
And, Spear did more. He became an integral member of constructing two more Haitian orphanages. In addition, he also contributes to educating female youth from Haiti and Colombia through personal funding of medical programs.
In his lifetime, Spear estimates that he has touched the lives of more than 300 children around the world.
He continues to take on new ventures and fund many humanitarian projects geared toward children.
"What keeps me going is the children. When I see how they react to all of this; how happy it makes them, how comfortable it makes them, how safe it makes them ... the hope that they have is just powerful and it makes one want to continue," said Spear.
For his commitment to bettering the lives of disadvantaged youth, Spear has been selected for the Good Samaritan award. He said it is an honor to be recognized by the local American Red Cross, an organization that aligns closely with his work.
"The Red Cross has been utterly sensational with the amount of help that they have given to people in the United States and around the world," said Spear. "I would say it is a very special award and I would say I am quite happy and overjoyed to receive it."
The American Red Cross Heroes Breakfast will take place 7:30-9 a.m. Sept. 26 in the Lexus Room at CONSOL Energy Center, located at 1001 Fifth Avenue in Pittsburgh.
The Red Cross will honor everyday heroes from the region in six categories: Educator Hero, Lifetime Commitment to the Red Cross Hero, Good Samaritan Hero, Military Hero, Professional Responder Hero and Youth Hero.
For further information on the Heroes Breakfast, call 412-263-3123 or visit RedCross.org/PA/Pittsburgh.

An even wealthier suburb of Atlanta, smaller city/town of inside the city of Alpharetta, where the kids drive nicer cars than most adults and the adults don't drive, they are driven (or, just as often, the women drive H2's and the dads drive insanely small sports cars. Most guy teens choose to drive insanely large AMERICAN trucks for offroading and girl teens prefer more lexus/bmw/mercedes. Jeeps are also seen EVERYWHERE. Milton High School has everything from their preps to the stoners. Their school also looks like a college campus. No good places to chill, most of them end up at North Point Mall, fishing, off-roading, relaxing in Miltons fine houses with hot tubs/pool tables/pools/indoor movie theaters, and eating at all the good places. Chick-fil-a is the fast food of choice and the other popular spots are Taco-Mac, Jimmy Johns, and Menchies. They can definitely be stereotyped. White, rich, christian, and part redneck. Definitely southern, yet rich as hell and classy. If you've lived here all your life you know every backroad, GA400, and your way around the 3 White Columns/Crooked Creek like its your job. Everytime you decide to go anywhere, you might as well roll the windows down and blast your kicks 101.5, you'll also want to keep your hand out the window to say to all the people you'll pass, your going to know 75% of them. Careful you don't speed though, Milton po-po are EVERYWHERE. Hand out MIP's like candy. There's definitely no place like Milton :)
Milton, Georgia is pretty much the shit, alpharetta is definitely alpha-ghetto compared to this.

If you want to go for a "walk" in Milton, Georgia, you will probably get ran over by a redneck in a jacked-up truck 16 feet from the ground.

- Send Us an Inquiry First
- Send Us a Proposal
- One Publisher at a Time
- Review
- A Final Decision
- If Your Proposal Is Accepted
- Questions?
"I have an idea … an outline … a few chapters … a complete manuscript. Would NAEYC be interested in publishing it?"
Before you send us anything to review, we invite you to familiarize yourself with the kinds of projects NAEYC publishes. Read NAEYC's Publishing FAQs. Browse our current print or online catalog. Compare some of NAEYC books to your book idea.
Determine whether NAEYC already has one or more books in print on your same topic and taking your same approach. What about other early childhood publishers? (Locate these by searching the web, visiting your local college bookstore or library, or talking to colleagues about the resources they use.) If books similar to the project you have in mind are already out there, you'll need to be ready to explain to us how yours would be different or better.
NAEYC-published books are closely identified with the Association, and our members and other readers expect them to reflect NAEYC's core position statements on practice and policy, such as developmentally appropriate practice and respect for all children and families.
NAEYC is a publisher of professional materials for teachers. Our best materials support good practice from a research base of the best current knowledge of the early childhood field. We do not publish curricula or activity books, per se.
Send Us an Inquiry First
If your research reveals a niche in the marketplace that your book could fill, then send an inquiry to the NAEYC Books Department. We suggest you send the inquiry early in your thinking about the project. Exploring topic, tone, and audience with us before you take your idea too far saves both of us time, and makes it more likely that you might develop a manuscript that NAEYC would publish.
In your inquiry, please provide:
outline or table of contents
narrative description of the project
Your description of the project will let us sample your writing. But if you have other writing samples available (e.g., a published article or book, link to a blog or forum you've posted to), you could send that along, too.
Give us a few weeks to respond. If the fit is promising, we will invite you to submit a formal proposal for review. The instructions below describe how to prepare such a proposal.
Send Us a Proposal
Proposal Letter
A Proposal Letter is your chance to get us as excited about the project as you are! Tell us:
- What will this book be about? What will readers learn from it?
- Who are your potential readers (be as specific as you can)? How would this book meet their specific needs?
- Are there other publications (by NAEYC or other early childhood publishers) already available similar to yours in both topic and approach? If so, which are those other publications? How would yours be different or better?
- How will your project address NAEYC's mission and the principles and practices we advocate in our position statements (e.g., developmentally appropriate practice)?
- What will your book be based on: the research literature? your own experience or direct observation? a combination?
- Have the suggestions, activities, or strategies you will propose been tested in the field? What evidence do you have of their effectiveness?
- What expertise or credentials do you and any coauthors bring to this specific project?
- How long will your manuscript be when it is finished? (Estimate total word count.) If you are submitting a complete manuscript now, what is its actual word count?
- What do you imagine the finished publication might look like? Would it have any special design or manufacturing elements?
- Do you have video or other electronic resources available that could support and/or expand on the book?
- Are you planning to include material from published sources that will require permissions? If so, what? (If you're not sure what permissions entail, consult our guide to Obtaining Permissions).
- We typically provide illustrations and/or photographs as needed from our extensive image library, but sometimes authors have their own photographs or children's work available. Will your submitted manuscript include any illustrations, photographs, or figures? If so, will you be their creator, or are you planning to use images from another source (e.g., samples of children's work, work by an artist or photographer, reprints from a book or website)? … For safety, do not enclose any original artwork or photographs now with your proposal; instead, just describe what you plan to include or send photocopies.
Also, please provide contact information (mailing address, daytime phone, email) for the person(s) we should correspond with about this project.
Manuscript Sample
With your Proposal Letter, please also provide the following:
- Title you are proposing, and the names of all authors exactly as they should appear in the book (correct spelling, in order).
- Detailed outline or table of contents—describe the topics that each chapter will cover. List the major subheads inside each chapter.
A sample of the manuscript—
- For a book. Three completed chapters. The chapters you send need not be the book's first three (i.e., not Chapters 1, 2, and 3); instead, select chapters that collectively will give us a picture of what the whole book will be like (i.e., chapters that sample each major type of material in the book). If you have already written more than three chapters or even the entire manuscript, please go ahead and send us everything you have ready.
- For a booklet or brochure. A significant portion, sufficient for us to get a sense of the content and your writing.
NAEYC offers detailed guidance on writing and formatting in our Style Guide. At minimum:
Please double-space everything, including any references, notes, and tables. Number all pages. In anticipation of the manuscript being sent for blind review, please use the names of the authors on the title page only, not anywhere else in the manuscript (e.g., not in headers or footers).
Supply your Proposal Letter and Manuscript Sample on paper or electronically. We prefer electronically because we send book proposals to reviewers via email. Make sure you keep copies of everything for safety.
One Publisher at a Time
As a small publisher, NAEYC cannot afford to invest staff time in reviewing a proposal that at the same time is being considered elsewhere. If your project is already under consideration by another publisher, please do not submit it to NAEYC unless you first withdraw it from consideration there or until the other publisher rejects it.
While your proposal is being reviewed by NAEYC, please don't submit it elsewhere.
NAEYC editors make the decision regarding review, revision, acceptance, and publication.
First, staff in the Books department will give your proposal a preliminary in-house review. This initial review typically takes several weeks. We will contact you as soon as we come to a decision about next steps.
A proposal that makes it through our initial staff review is sent for blind peer review to experts in the early childhood field. Because these reviewers are volunteers, it may take six weeks or longer for NAEYC to receive their feedback.
Sometimes it's Revise and Resubmit
Some proposals we accept or reject after peer review.
Others we encourage the author to revise, incorporating our feedback and the feedback of the outside reviewers. Such encouragement means that we believe the project has potential. However, an author who revises and resubmits is not guaranteed an acceptance. Some authors go through several rounds of review-revision-review before we can make a final decision.
A Final Decision
If we accept your proposal, we will invite you to submit a complete Project Package (more on that below). Actual publication is always conditional on our (1) obtaining a final, editable manuscript that we judge to be complete and acceptable in form and content, and (2) receiving a signed Author Agreement from each author.
- Our standard Author Agreement grants to NAEYC the exclusive right to publish your manuscript and transfers all rights (including copyright) to the Association.
If we reject your proposal, we will send you a written confirmation.
If Your Proposal Is Accepted
If your proposal is accepted on the basis of a partial manuscript, then now will be the time to finish writing. If your manuscript is already complete, then the next step is to prepare your Project Package for submission to editing and production. For help, see our author guides:
- Style Guide: Writing for NAEYC lists the set of style rules and preferences we follow during the editing stages of production.
- Being Accepted describes your prerogatives and responsibilities as author, and ours as publisher.
- Sending Your Project Package lists the components of a package ready for editing and production (text, artwork/photos, permissions, etc.).
- Stages in Editing and Proofing covers in chart form each of the steps required to turn a manuscript into a book.
- Obtaining Permissions describes when you need permission to include in your manuscript material created by someone else, and how to obtain that permission.

Lite FM's website had some very special visitors to it today. While checking on our weekly web numbers we noticed that 1037litefm.com had some out of this world visitors. Members of the International Space Station were checking out our website.
Using Google Analytics real time web traffic analyzer we noticed a large population of people visiting the site from somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. When hovering over it the title "International Space Station – Control Room" showed up.
We also noticed that it said there were 41 active visitors from the space station on. Now we aren't members of NASA but this seemed high. And when we clicked on the circle to see what pages the astronauts were looking at we found out why.
Google pulled a fast one on us. But hey if anyone from the space station is reading this thanks for the support.

Its mildly bitter taste is refreshingly mellow in the mouth. The light body and clean finish make this elegant, crisp, light European pilsner go well with many dining choices, including salads, sandwiches, light-tasting fish and hamburgers, among others.
This beer was born in Amsterdam–a city that's steeped in history, yet prides itself on being progressive. That's the spirit with which we brew every bottle of Amstel Light. The recipe has grown out of a 140-year tradition. The flavor is as unique as the city in which it was born.

I really hope we get them sooner then later.they were awsome figures in the 80's and i think they would sell very very well.
I know that TG said it would probably take retailer support for the line before modulok .Does that mean we'd have to wait for all the re-releases Teela,He-man ,MAA,Skeletor etc. and then get modulok years later?That would suck all that is sucky.I mean couldnt they just make him now but sell him a little more like thirty or so?

Jen Singer started blogging before anyone had put the words "mom" and "blogger" together. As blogger-in-chief of MommaSaid.net for the past 10 years, she has a unique, expert perspective on how the new Office supports her on-the-go, working mom lifestyle.
I have been working from home since before everyone worked from home at various times during the week. But now my home office can be wherever I am, whether it is in the waiting area at my son's clarinet lesson, in the high school parking lot, or at the vet, where I am right now. And the new Office is what makes it possible.
As blogger-in-chief of MommaSaid.net for the past 10 years, technology has made it possible for me to work around my kids' (and when necessary, my cat's) schedules. I have done pre-show interviews with TV producers from the supermarket cereal aisle and edited books on my laptop while waiting for track practice to end.
But now my office can truly be wherever I am, and it all starts with SkyDrive, Microsoft's cloud-based storage system. For instance, I started writing this blog post on my desktop in my home office, and then saved it to SkyDrive, put my cat in his carrier, and dashed off to the vet. While waiting for him to have a few tests, I fired up my tablet, pulled this document off SkyDrive, and I am writing it in Word, while listening to a chorus of disgruntled cats.
I can even make changes to contracts and review magazine article edits right on my Windows Phone, which allows me easy access to Office. That means I never have to say, "I'll take care of it when I get back to my office," allowing me to get back to the business of coaching soccer practice without worrying about work.
Whether a small business owner like me, or the family manager looking to juggle to-do lists, calendars and homework, there's an Office for you. Check out Office.com to discover more about the new Office for home or for business. As I've said before though, the key is that the new Office makes it possible for me to live and work the way I want. Here are a few things I think you should know about the new Office:
- You can load Office 365 Home Premium on up to 5 gadgets for one low price. For families who use Office for managing their households, you can download Office onto your desktop, your laptop, and your tablet, with room for your kids' computers, all for just $99.99 a year, or $8.34 a month, which is about what people spend to watch old episodes of Arrested Development on Netflix. And updates come automatically, rather than with new rollouts every few years.
- It goes wherever I go. As long as I have a compatible phone, laptop, tablet, or access to a computer, I can get whatever I am working on, wherever I am working, by accessing Word, PowerPoint, OneNote and Excel via SkyDrive.
- Office has everything I need to be productive. Whether I am writing a book (Word), creating a presentation (PowerPoint), taking notes for a magazine article (OneNote), keeping tabs on my cash flow (Excel), or sending emails to my editors (Outlook), I have everything I need at my fingertips with Office.
- Its new features allow me to work smarter. Whether it's the attachment reminder in Outlook or the threaded comments in Word, the new Office's features help me get my work done more smoothly–even at the vet.

North Korea insists we should prepare for "all-out war," confirming that Kim Jong-Un, the young leader of North Korea, is following closely in his father's footsteps, as far as spewing vitriolic rhetoric when threatened. Domestically, Kim Jong-Un must demonstrate his ability to lead North Korea in times of crisis to consolidate the loyalty of the military elite.
But wait, didn't he just tell our lead diplomat to North Korea, Dennis Rodman, that he definitely did not want war? Either Kim is a fibber or Rodman is no diplomat. Well, both of these are likely true.
Let's try to bring some sanity to the most recent developments from North Korea. The only leverage the country retains in the world derives from menacing neighbors with nuclear weapons or posing a conventional military threat against our allies, South Korea and Japan. It is becoming more difficult to sustain those threats as credible when its military is impoverished and its missiles, more often than not, crash into the ocean short of their target.
To remain relevant, the new leader cleverly devised a way to grab international attention once again, by terminating the tenuous ceasefire between the United Nations forces and North Korea that has been in effect since 1953. By cancelling that, the young leader has put the world on notice that they absolve themselves of any obligation to further notify their enemies before attacking, as they did so suddenly on June 25, 1950.
While this bluster has raised a few eyebrows initially, make no mistake, North Korea is not in a position to attack anyone, and they know it. The condition of the regime is desperate, and all their huffing and puffing is pretty much ignored by those who follow North Korea closely.
North Korea's military is a ghost of its former self, and while the people remain resilient and would most likely fiercely defend their homeland to the last breath, offensive operations would be unsustainable and lead to the collapse of the regime.
Part of the reason North Korea throws these temper tantrums is to receive international attention, especially that of the United States. We could expect to see the North challenge the South in the disputed areas of the West Sea where military vessels have been known to aggressively bump each other or fishermen disappear for straying too close to the disputed border. We might also expect rhetoric to become harsh and taunts broadcasted across the demilitarized zone to resume. If that does not attract enough attention, then we might see shots across the DMZ or menacing troop movements near a border already packed with North Korean army units. The North desires a more conciliatory Obama administration and may try to play the U.S. against the South, which has taken a hard-line stance since electing its first woman president, Park Geun-hye, daughter of former military strongman President Park Chung-hee. The North's tantrum is meant to elicit reassurance and international aid from frightened neighbors that have much more to lose from war than North Korea.
The U.S. must carefully weigh its response. It would be irresponsible to completely disregard the current threats, but it must be careful not to be lulled into an overreaction to one of their provocations. In addition, there is little to gain by antagonizing a regime that is blustering for mostly internal political uses and to gain additional aid from neighboring China and even South Korea. The best possible response is to continue sending positive overtures to the North regardless of their rhetoric. After achieving his domestic purpose, Kim will eventually seek a face-saving opportunity to power back his threats and get on with governing one of the most isolated and enigmatic countries on Earth.

Moroccan Mineral Shimmering Sands Facial Tanner 1.7 oz.Moroccan Mineral Shimmering Sands Facial Tanner is a dark self tanning lotion that goes on sheer, leaving skin glowing with a soft focus finish. While natural minerals illuminate skin, a bronzed and toasty tan quickly develops. Formulated with anti-oxidants, amino acids and natural botanicals for the advanced care of delicate facial skin.Just one application delivers a long lasting facial tan. Shimmering Sands does not contain brown dyes, or pigments that can visibly clog pores and dull the complexion. DHA and Erythrulose develop a smooth, dark brown streak-free tan on the outermost layer of the skin. Color lasts between 5-7 days (depending on your skin care regimen), and fades naturally like a real sun tan. Our natural mineral color guide goes on sheer and begins darkening in just 1 hour. Full tan results develop within 4-6 hours revealing a toned and tan glow on all skin types. The tan results continue to deepen for 24-48 hours. Dries quickly, never greasy. Self-correcting formula insures skin always tans evenly and flawlessly. Wake up to a toned, tanned and rejuvenated complexion without sun exposure. Anti-aging formula is rich in Anti-oxidants, Amino Acids and Botanicals for the advanced care of delicate facial skin.
Directions for Use:Give yourself a UV-free tan you while you sleep. Apply before bed, in place of your night cream, and wake up with glowing, tan skin. Blend evenly over clean and exfoliated skin. Apply it just as you would a liquid foundation, using care around hairline and eyebrows. Wash hands well immediately after use to avoid "tanning" fingers. Reapply every few days as desired. This product does not contain a sunscreen, and will not protect against sunburn - this is why evening application is recommended.
Key Ingredients:
I love the moroccan mineral facial tanner. Especially in these winter months. You really feel brighter. It gives your face a nice sun kissed look without the harmful rays from the sun. I use it winter and summer. Very nice product...
This is a go-to product for me. Wonderful color, not too much or too little. I never break-out using it. Only downfall is it doesn't seem to last too long for the price. But applies smoothly and very moisturizing, without being greasy.
This facial tanner is amazing -- easy to use, fantastic results, inexpensive -- as there are 25-50 uses in one container. Totally rocks -- we use it as a treatment in the spa and as a retail item.
I found Moroccan Mineral Facial Tanner through reading reviews, and the positive comments are very true. This is a terrific product and does deliver a true & real healthy glow. I'd recommend this to all of my clients.
Best facial tanner I have used yet. Goes on even and smooth. Nice amount of believable color. Goes on slightly greasy feeling at first but once dry this feeling goes away - has not caused breakouts on my sensitive skin. I would buy this product again.

South Fayette extends superintendent's contract
Dr. Bille Rondinelli was reappointed as superintendent of the South Fayette School District at a Jan. 22 meeting of the board of school directors.
The board voted unanimously for Rondinelli's contract extension, which will be for five years beginning July 1 and continuing through June 30, 2018.
Board member Leonard Fornella said he was "thrilled we have Bille here" and thanked her personally for the work she has done in the district.
Rondinelli said that the reappointment was "very much appreciated" and she is "thrilled to be here."
According to South Fayette's Director of Finance Brian Tony, Dr. Rondinelli's current compensation is $145,315. "This amount may increase annually based on performance evaluations," he said.
Rondinelli began her term as superintendent Sept. 1, 2009. She received her bachelor's and master's degrees from Westminster College and her doctorate in administrative and policy studies from the University of Pittsburgh. Before coming to South Fayette, she previously worked at the Shaler Area and Pine-Richland school districts.
In other business Jan. 22:
• The board approved a performance contract in the amount of $1,648,000 with Siemens by a vote of 8-0 with board member Alan Vezzi abstaining.
In November, Chris Lawrence of Siemens reviewed ways in which a performance contract could save the district money through energy-efficiency equipment upgrades and potential rebates.
The board voted 6-0 to use Siemens for financing the contract at an interest rate of 2.7 percent. Board members Vezzi, Teresa Burroughs and William Sray abstained. The board chose Siemens because the company's offer did not include a pre-payment penalty. Director of Finance Brian Tony said that the district has a potential bond refinancing opportunity this year and may be able to pay off the contract with the savings gained from that.
• The board and superintendent recognized three teachers that recently became National Board Certified: Renee Carlini, Justina Perrott and Christine Thomas. The board and superintendent also recognized all three schools in the district. Each building principal was presented with a Keystone award for achieving AYP (adequate yearly progress).
• The board also unanimously approved advertising for bids for one 24 to 30-passenger bus, two 48-passenger buses, and two 72-passenger buses to be used for the 2013-14 school
