The Cumberland County Sheriff's Office is warning residents to be alert for a man who is exposing himself to children.
Three incidents have been reported since November, said Debbie Tanna, Sheriff's Office spokesman.
In each case, the man has exposed himself and engaged in a lewd act in front of young children in the afternoons after school, Tanna said.
Investigators haven't been able to get a good description of the man, Tanna said.
Parents are being urged to be cautious in letting children walk home from school, Tanna said.
Children who are walking home should do so in groups, she said.
Investigators aren't saying where, specifically, the incidents have occurred, Tanna said, because they hope to catch the man in the act.
Any parent whose child reports being approached by a stranger or seeing this man is asked to call the Sheriff's Office at 323-1500.

BY MARCY SHORTUSE - The first cars across the new center bridge were excited. They honked, they waved, the workmen glowed. This all took place at high noon on Thursday, Aug. 1.
The center bridge is now 99 percent complete.The final step in its completion is for workers to stripe the new bridge with new, "official" paint. It will take a day to paint, several weeks to cure.
The new bridge is approximately 16 feet taller than the old center bridge, affording a spectacular view.
Work on the swing bridge, the last piece in the puzzle, will be started around the beginning of October.

Clinically significant separation anxiety disorder in childhood leads to adult panic disorder and other anxiety disorders. The prevailing pathophysiological model of anxiety disorders, which emphasizes extinction deficits of fear-conditioned responses, does not fully consider the role of separation anxiety. Pathological early childhood attachments have far-reaching consequences for the later adult ability to experience and internalize positive relationships in order to develop mental capacities for self-soothing, anxiety tolerance, affect modulation, and individuation. Initially identified in attachment research, the phenomenon of separation anxiety is supported by animal model, neuroimaging, and genetic studies. A role of oxytocin is postulated. Adults, inured to their anxiety, often do not identify separation anxiety as problematic, but those who develop anxiety and mood disorders respond more poorly to both pharmacological and psychotherapeutic interventions. This poorer response may reflect patients' difficulty in forming and maintaining attachments, including therapeutic relationships. Psychotherapies that focus on relationships and separation anxiety may benefit patients with separation anxiety by using the dyadic therapist-patient relationship to recapture and better understand important elements of earlier pathological parent-child relationships.

This is a wonderful climb, with some great face climbing on P2. The P1 mini-roof is harder than it looks. The P2 crux protects with small cams or tricams, but there is some easier runout climbing after the crux. It's a heady lead if 5.6 is your limit. P1 - Climb the flake and crack to the small roof, surmount it on the left, then traverse back right on the face. Continue up and right toward the left edge of the gully to a stance with 2 blocks and a belay. There is sometimes some fixed gear here. P2 - Continue up the face until it steepens, finding the best holds, up to the GT ledge. Move right to the belay rap tree and rap with two 60m ropes. P3 - You could continue to the top on grassy rock if you must, but hardly anyone does.
At a short, right facing flake capped by a small roof just left of the broken gully that separates this climb from the Dis-Mantel block.
Standard Gunks rack + small cams/tricams
If you want to climb with one rope, you can use a 60 meter rope and rappel to the top of the large ledge that is right of the start of this route (left as you are facing out at the top). Another rap leads down the gully to the base, or you can walk over to the belay tree of Raunchy.
I'd be careful of that fixed gear at the top of P1. At top out of Son of Bitchy Virgin it's easy enough to traverse right (if facing the cliff) and rappel from the other tree. This takes you straight down to the gully and tree with slings that the (other) Dana is talking about.

"Rainy days and Mondays always get me down." – The Carpenters
I'm not going to mince words — the weather is shit right now. It's grey and cold and the coffee I drank two hours ago has been unable to penetrate its dreary, low energy malaise. I feel like a zombie and I look like one, too. I often joke that I've spent so much time in the company of plants that I've become one. But the plants are bright, colourful, and standing up straight today — we are not in sync at all.
If you can stand to be outdoors, the overcast haze makes the perfect conditions for photographing the garden. I dragged my sorry ass out there this afternoon to capture some recent changes to the garden and photograph these books. The lemon balm is reaching a nice size now and I was reminded on sighting it that a fistful lazily torn and brewed in a cup of hot water is a good rainy day remedy. I added slices of fresh ginger and ginger honey purchased at the market to mine.
The cup is empty now and while I can't say that I am feeling any more chipper than before, I am at least cheered by the prospect of more drinks made with fresh (rather than dried) herbs from the garden in the coming months.

Missouri Congressman Todd Akin thanked "God our Creator" for blessing his campaign in a victory speech. With about 91 percent of precincts reporting, Akin had 36 percent of the vote, St. Louis businessman John Brunner about 30 percent and former state Senator Sarah Steelman 29 percent.
"The choice is clear in November," Akin said in a statement on Tuesday night. "The big spending, budget-busting, job-killing liberal or the less spending, balanced budget, job-creating conservative."
McCaskill, who is struggling in a state that has gone increasingly Republican after being a bellwether in presidential elections for a century, wasted no time in responding.
"Throughout the primary campaign, Akin repeatedly gave voice to positions that show how extreme he is, and how willing he would be to throw middle-class families under the bus to protect tax breaks for the mega-wealthy and tax giveaways to Big Oil," McCaskill said in a statement.
McCaskill's support of Democratic President Barack Obama's healthcare reform has hurt her, said Steve Glorioso, a political consultant who has worked on past McCaskill campaigns.
Brunner had never run for political office and bankrolled his own campaign to join a string of conservative newcomers who have challenged established Republicans but Brunner came up short.

The ALS Internship Program teaches up-and-coming future scientists about clinical care and ongoing research in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
Project A.L.S. Internship 2013
Sponsored by Project A.L.S., the Massachusetts General Hospital ALS Internship Program for high school, college, and medical school students serves as an unprecedented opportunity to learn about clinical care and ongoing research in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Commonly referred to as "Lou Gehrig's Disease," ALS is a rare disease characterized by motor neuron cell death. The need to find effective treatments is urgent. The internship affords students the opportunity to shadow and join a top-notch neurological team, including neurologists, nurses, physical therapists and speech therapists. Interns are part of the ALS Multidisciplinary Clinic and the Neurological Clinical Research Institute (NCRI). Together with their mentors, interns devise a long-term project that fits their educational and career goals. Past projects have included increasing understanding of the disease and its progression through use of biomarkers, determining efficacy of specific potential treatments, and studying reasons for diagnostic delay in patients with ALS.
Project A.L.S, a non-profit whose mission is to recruit the world's finest scientists and clinicians to work together rationally and aggressively toward effective treatments for ALS, has funded research comprising several pre-clinical studies in genetics, biochemistry, and iPS cell models across the United States. The organization has raised over 67 million dollars and has directed more than 89% of their funds to research programs. Project A.L.S. is thrilled to be able to grant students the chance to be part of critical research and quality clinical care at Massachusetts General Hospital, which received the #1 spot in the 2012-13 U.S. News & World Report "America's Best Hospitals" list. "In our 15 years, Project A.L.S. has excelled at bringing the world's best minds together to work on ALS, and nurturing exceptional young talent is implicit in this mission," said Valerie Estess, Director of Research at Project A.L.S. "We hope that this rare hands-on opportunity begins three lifelong careers dedicated to stopping ALS and related diseases."
"We received a large number of applications from a highly qualified pool of students," said Merit Cudkowicz, MD, Mass General Neurology Chief and Co-Director of the NCRI. "It is exciting to see the overwhelming interest in the ALS internship and to know that so many up-and–coming, future scientists are interested in the neurotherapeutic field." This year's accepted interns embody the teamwork, compassion and intellectual curiosity that the internship represents.

When it comes to whimsical, eclectic style no one does it quite like the surrealist artist Salvador Dali did. Check out these amazing photos of the Portlligat, the house-museum of Salvador Dali. I love how he used color, sculpture, animal themes, and pattern to create a truly one-of-a-kind home.
[portfolio_slideshow timeout=8000]
Want to add a little Dali style to your own home? This color palette inspired by one of this paintings is a great place to start!
NG 22: This deep yellow-green is a flexible neutral that is dignified and serene. Yellow-green and yellow undertones warm this shade to create an inviting and comfortable mood.
ICS 5-5: Dignified and crisp, this slightly stormy blue is deep and enchanting. Cool and dramatic tones of blue hint at green to make a polished, sophisticated expression of decor.
ICS 6-6: Stimulating to the eye, this deep cool purple is rich and vibrant. Vivid and full of body, it has soft notes of blue to it that enhance the luxurious nature of the color.
ICS 11-7: Faded, soft tones set this red apart with a hint of warm orange. It has an inviting luster of yellow tone that tempts an exotic or tropically-inclined mood. The color maintains a calm, revitalizing ambiance to relax and soothe.
NG 67: Stormy, adventurous depths greet the eye with this rich saturated blue. Bold and dramatic, its intriguing and vivid luxury is simultaneously tranquil and stimulating.
Is there an artist whose art and sense of style you love? I'd love to see how you would use an artist's style in your home!

Recently, I have noticed how often you see a character on TV playing a real estate agent or the several hundred reality shows about real estate. It brings home the point that real estate has the interest of pretty much everyone. You can't turn on the news and not hear some sort of real estate-related story. Let's face it, real estate is sexy.
The fact that so many consumers have interest in real estate makes me happy. However, I sometimes wonder if I fall into some sort of stereotype that consumers have about agents. Some examples I have heard in the past are:
1. Everyone is a real estate agent - For those of us who are still active in real estate, we know this is no longer true. The days of people getting licensed just to make a quick buck are over.
2. Our job is easy – Not true. We make it look easy to spare our clients some stress.
3. We all make a bunch of money – I read somewhere that the average agent last year closed one transaction. I don't need to say anything further.
4. We all drive big expensive vehicles and plaster our faces on them – False.
5. We are simply about making money – To me, it's more important to have a happy client than to make a quick buck. If my clients are happy, they will refer people to me. Continue reading »

I'm considering setting up a dual-headed beowulf for the sake of high-availability and some load-balancing of non-parallel tasks. I understand I will have to put two ethernet cards in each head and otherwise set each of them up as though they were the only head in the beowulf cluster, and that each head should treat the other head as though it were a node, but can any of you think in advance of any other potential issues/problems with such a setup? Have any of you done such a thing and have any suggestions or warnings you'd be willing to share? I won't be using NIS or Kerberos, but I have a scheme in mind for dealing with password management (from our last discussion on this topic--thanks to everyone for their suggestions). I can take care of the high-availability aspects (IP address takeover, heartbeats, etc.); I just want to make sure I don't break the beowulf part in the process (particularly the firewall(s) and the internal network). I welcome all suggestions. Once I have this working, I'd be happy to post a summary statement of what it took to get this working, to help anyone in the future who might be considering this option.

Karl Doesn't Expect Help Thru the Draft
Posted By HOOPSWORLD On June 25, 2012 @ 6:53 am In All,Headlines,NBA Headlines | No Comments
Denver has a history of finding gems outside the lottery picks, notably Ty Lawson (drafted 18th in 2009) and Kenneth Faried (22nd in 2011).
But the reality is, whomever the Nuggets draft, it's possible it will be a Jordan Hamilton-type situation — a player the team can develop and use in later seasons.
"I don't want to burst anybody's bubble, but I don't think the 20th pick in this draft is going to be better than Jordan Hamilton or Julyan Stone, and they didn't play this year," Nuggets coach George Karl said this past week. "I mean, I'd be shocked. If Jordan is in this draft, he'd be in the top 10. And if Julyan goes in the draft, he'd be going right around where we pick. That doesn't mean we're not going to draft a guy and work hard on making the pick work out, but we are a team where it's hard to get minutes."

I have a small collection of little dogs. They are on top of a chest. I found an old metal black and tan tray that has a picture of statue of liberty on it. I am thinking I could paint it or something and put the little dogs on it, making dusting easier as itis a pain to move them individually. This way I can dust top of chest, and then every so often just take the tray to kitchen and clean it and the dogs. So would you suggest spray primer first or? | |||
I think a spray primer for metal, like Rustoleum or Krylon, is a terrific base for a spray enamel coat. I've used it on many metal objects and had great success. You could just clean it well and use a topcoat of spray paint, but the primer is the key for durability if you are at all concerned with scratches and such. | ||||
Yeah, what conrad said. Use a oil/solvent based primer on the metal as it will keep it from rusting. Metal-specific primers are the best for this. This is just an FYI for other projects, but latex primers (usually brushed-on primers) on metal allows the metal to rust. An oil/solvent based primer on the metal will allow you to use any paint-including latexes as your finish coats on metal. The secret is in the prep. Christie | ||||
unless the tray is just the wrong color, i'd almost leave it "as is", esp if the dogs are antiques..it just sounds so fun... | ||||

Tips for healthy eating

I can't count how many times I've suggested fruits and vegetables as part of a healthy eating plan. In case you've missed it, here's the drill: Fruits and vegetables are high in nutrients and low in calories, making them a great addition to any meal and ideal for snacking. They're also good sources of fiber — so they fill you up without adding a ton of calories.
I stand by this healthy eating advice. However, this week I've heard from several of my new clients that they still feel hungry after snacking on fruits and veggies. Maybe you feel the same way. Here are some things to consider:
- Could it be that you just need more time to adjust to this new way of eating?
- Is your desire for candy or salty snacks keeping you from being satisfied with fruits and veggies?
- Or is it that fruits and veggies truly aren't sustaining enough for you?
No question, lifestyle changes are a challenge. It takes time to make these new healthy eating habits part of your routine. But maybe you need to rethink your approach. Would you be better off completely cutting out sweets and salty snacks for only fruits and veggies? Or would you prefer starting with baby steps, such as switching from ice cream to low-fat frozen yogurt topped with fruit?
Let's say you've tried fruit and veggies alone for 2 weeks and you aren't feeling satisfied — not your stomach nor your head. Try adding a little protein or healthy fat to your snack. How about sliced bell peppers with hummus or bean dip? Or a piece of fruit with a smear of nut spread?
Have you been in this spot and gotten through it? What advice can you share with others?

Method discovers a de-synchronization of insulin secretion which is the first measurable sign in people suspected of developing type 2 diabetes....
Pancreatic beta cells produce insulin, responsible for controlling blood sugar levels and thus essential for our survival. Among the numerous factors that affect the workings of these cells, a protein called Cx36 was identified a few months ago by a research team at the University of Geneva (UNIGE). Scientists demonstrated that in transgenic mice, suitably modified to not produce any Cx36, synchronization of the beta cells ceased and insulin production went out of control. This de-synchronization of insulin secretion is the first measurable sign in people suspected of developing type 2 diabetes. Armed with this knowledge, the research team is now looking for molecules which act directly on Cx36 with the objective of developing a novel therapeutic approach to fighting diabetes. Paolo Meda, Professor of Cellular Physiology and Metabolism in UNIGE's Faculty of Medicine, set his team a real challenge - study the protein Cx36, present in minute quantities and almost impossible to detect using traditional techniques, and which has a half-life of around three hours. Sabine Bavamian and Helena Pontes, researchers in Professor Meda's laboratory, are working on developing a non-invasive system for understanding how Cx36 works. This project has been partly financed by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (USA) and the Swiss National Science Foundation and is using equipment in the Bio-Imaging department of UNIGE's Faculty of Medicine. The two scientists have been able to develop a new model using living cells which produce insulin and Cx36 in culture in order to be able rapidly to test a large number of potentially interesting molecules. With this novel approach, they have been able to analyze some 1040 molecules, enabling them to identify those that stimulate insulin production and those that inhibit it. Such discoveries should enable the roll-out of new pharmacological treatment strategies for type 2 diabetes. Although there are now a large number of drugs that are prescribed for diabetics the world over to help alleviate insulin secretion de-synchronization, the majority of them have unfortunate side effects. And thus Professor Meda has decided to use the innovative technique developed by his team to test the effect on Cx36 of very different molecules, produced from animal venom. Such molecules should not give rise to the same type of problem posed by the traditional drugs used currently. The screening, or selection, of the venom should enable carrying out the necessary validation tests, initially in vitro, and then in vivo. "We have some 3 to 5 years work ahead of us, but we have very serious hopes of discovering molecules which act exclusively on Cx36, unlike all the currently identified molecules, with a view to limiting side-effects," explains Professor Meda.

Gypsy weddings: the extraordinary nuptials of Roma children
Although most countries don't allow individuals to wed before they are 18 years of age, some minors are still getting "married" in 21st century Europe. Among the Roma, children are often wed at very young ages, observing strict rules of tradition. Their futures are mapped out by their parents and there is no going against their wishes. The marriage may not be legal in the eyes of the law, but for the Roma, it's binding for life.

Vice President Biden floats bombshell

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
And -- -- Hannity and tonight at this very hour president Barack Obama is considering taking executive action aimed at limiting your Second Amendment right -- -- mom shell revelation came from the vice president.
Earlier today during a meeting with his gun control task force let's start and take a look at this.
We're here today.
-- immediate action -- They and their the president iron in terms of tape cache it's not an exercise you know we're hopeful opportunities -- People.
We are reportedly used to know what you're saying we're really reaching out all fall part.
On whatever side industry.
-- Executive action can be taken we haven't decided what yet.
We're compiling all the -- with the attorney general.
All the -- -- numbers.
As well.
Action we we would require.
I G here that let me repeat with the vice president has said quote the president is going to act through executive orders but what exactly does that mean.
It means that our imperial president is weighing possible changes to gun laws and regulations without seeking the approval of the congress in other words.
It means that he intends to unilaterally.
The constitutional rights of U law abiding citizens without consulting.
The legislative branch now I don't know any better I would think I'd be reporting on a story from Cuba Venezuela Iran North Korea Russia.
Unfortunately this is taking place right here in Obama's America for example.
Nancy Pelosi now the Democrats have been urging the president to bypass the constitution.
Article one section seven.
They're urging the president to use the fourteenth amendment to raise the debt ceiling.
And only today to the White House spokesman Jay Carney seem to back off that unconstitutional idea -- this group who else.
Obama is increasingly relying on executive orders to bypass congressional authority now this is what he refers to as the we can't wait initiative.
-- I call it get the Republicans the hell out of the way initiative.
Now he's been using this for infrastructure projects and economic policies now he's made several recess appointments while the senate was officially still session.
No president has attempted that power grab.
He is also halted deportation of illegal immigrants in other words to our executive Fiat he adopted provisions of the DREAM Act but we failed to pass it through congress.
He also unilaterally change state welfare work requirements without submitting them to congress for review.
Even the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office said that he should have consulted congress in that case.
So what you're witnessing here is an out of control and arrogant and unconstitutional.
Executive power grab.
And here to talk about the legality of all of this and discuss what options the president may be weighing especially when it comes to the Second Amendment and gun control.
From the American Center for Law and Justice.
Good evening -- -- this Hannity chief Justice Kennedy the user.
I let you know that you're lower much that -- Supreme Court justice that congratulations I appreciate them cradle and you -- think the good -- to be a Supreme Court justice was -- I think he making oral arguments any day now on some topic that final ruling j.'s favor on.
I missed a purple nation Lanny Davis this this is no joking matter when we have a president of the United States.
Using executive order bypassing congress.
To get done what he cannot get them through the legislative process that that is a problem Lanny that's a big problem.
Well it could be.
Illegal and if so it should be challenged and taken to the courts the Republicans have not been bashful about doing that.
You remember that the Affordable Care Act otherwise known.
By some Republicans as Obama -- was taken to the Supreme Court rarely -- I don't know I don't know if there is anything illegal sometimes executive orders or within the overall authority -- -- -- some are not.
So it should be challenge I don't favor president acting illegally but that's with a question for mr.
Justice Kennedy.
You know but it's also -- -- I think the president -- sworn to uphold the constitution.
-- for example -- the fourteenth amendment to raise the debt ceiling is very clear article one section seven.
The Second Amendment couldn't be could not be any more clear and we laid out.
What our founders and framers set about a last night so the president has responsibility himself but he wants to push the -- -- Your reaction.
Well look I mean we should be surprised the president said as much job before when he was running for reelection he said -- congress isn't gonna move he's gonna move now it's.
Take a look at each issue with regard to the Second Amendment that there's no executive order the president of the United States can.
Issue that's -- override in the Second Amendment to the United States constitution so.
Vice president biting could be making it you know platitudes statements or -- saying whatever he wants about executive orders and executive action.
But the fact of the matter is the Second Amendment is not going to be overridden by the president of the United States and they try that.
That should be challenged it would be challenged successfully but -- it there's a connection Sean.
Between that issue.
In the dead issue this idea that Nancy Pelosi been advocating and others that the president could just on his own ignore the debt ceiling limitations.
And incurred debt the constitution says exactly the opposite but again the fact that you've got Nancy Pelosi.
And other Democrats saying.
This is the way we could go -- we have duke shows you that this is a lot of threats and ignoring the constitutional reality things of separation of our friend -- in ranch a legislative branch and -- judicial branch.
Reverend Mark Levin the great ones that this is a post constitutional America this is now.
Now taking executive power to -- agree that nobody has taken it before without respect to precedent.
-- it let's go to the videotape in the words of Warner wolf a great New York sports captain Lanny Davis.
Let's listen to your friend President Obama on the issue of executive privilege and back and executive -- back in 2007.
I think that.
The issue of executive power and executive privilege.
Is one that.
Is subject to abuse.
And in an Obama presidency what you'll see will be.
A sufficient respect for law and the coequal branches of government but I hope we don't find ourselves in -- situation in which we would be having.
It's being subpoenaed for.
What I think everybody acknowledges this and troublesome information out there.
Lanny if the president can't get an appointment he wants and then the -- -- session he makes a recess appointment nobody's ever done that before.
That's -- -- advancing.
I guess that he audience knows that -- -- stated conclusion and I know -- sincerely believe but which others disagree with this and it was not in session.
There's and it was not in recess one it has -- trial there was a ploy used by one Republican trying to hold the floor latest actions or not.
Was at you know they learn not what they recess trying to answer on.
Hopefully to a loss here so let let me at least get to the point because his disagreement on your -- no disagreement that.
I let my let you know where Eric let let's.
Actually not -- and look the fact of the matter is there's a lawsuit that's been abroad on this very issue and these were.
-- controversial appointments the president will do that in fact the senate was not in recess and he did anyways and that's when he said remember.
If congress doesn't act he's gonna do it on results of the -- says that.
With a little -- -- -- court -- -- -- is right where it's being -- were involved in that case but the fact of the matter is I think it's it's pretty significant that this is a pattern that we've -- now throughout.
-- -- -- -- -- Second Amendment and the fourteenth amendment issues the Second Amendment this Supreme Court has held is the right to own firearms.
Every -- on the Supreme Court every one unanimously would say that doesn't mean you can't regulate.
The use of firearms just as we already have on the books background checks are required.
We literally was totally an average of government so you are left in I'm sure you'll agree that that that is not violating the Second Amendment -- to the fourteenth amendment.
I do not favor.
This stretch of the constitution or an imperial presidency waging war over that a declaration of war so there's a little -- -- Republicans.
Love waging war over that declarations of war as they did in Iraq and -- -- in Afghanistan planning -- and then and then with a.
-- -- -- Did the President George Bush went and he got the authorization of the use of force -- -- wouldn't quit and I -- declaration no excuse me nowhere in the constitution.
Does it say you must use certain words put an authorization -- -- Every wish everybody kind of sense -- -- -- should just -- on winning and that is.
We regard because that's not -- disputed that President Bush had authority for the engagements in Afghanistan and Iraq what is -- I had I didn't hear the idea he had his -- and.
-- you said it right.
Can you can -- states and can regulations being put in place involving had -- short but there's a Second Amendment you're right I think all justices agree.
That that's a right that exist for individuals but the president doesn't get to set the regulations -- the legislation without.
Outgoing through the legislative branch there's no regulation -- -- -- -- the legislation problem in other words is no legislation that he can -- -- -- regulation.
He gets fired don't because -- it digested Hannity doesn't get to the Supreme Court I think through courts won't uphold.
Your viewpoint.
Didn't surprise.
Thank you thank you both as an important thing we can't have a president imperial presidency.
Gaining power and legislative or executive Fiat bypassing congress we have separation of powers.
And coequal branches of government thank you both.

History Sunday celebrates all the best at Edelstein's
If you are a woman getting married these days, there are a variety of big box stores where you can register for wedding gifts. But before the days of self-serve kiosks, a young woman from Superior about to be married, would register where?By: By Kathy Laakso, Superior Telegram
If you are a woman getting married these days, there are a variety of big box stores where you can register for wedding gifts. But before the days of self-serve kiosks, a young woman from Superior about to be married, would register where?
Why Edelstein's, of course, which carried all the best china and crystal, and "absolutely gorgeous" gift items, according to Pauline Kukull, who will present "Remembering Edelstein's Gifts on Tower Avenue" for the February History Sunday.
Pauline worked with owner Lillian Edelstein for 21 years. Lillian Edelstein was a true businesswoman, but very kind to people, says Pauline.
Customer service was always important at Edelstein's. When staff would learn a china pattern was about to go out of stock, they would telephone former customers to let them know in case she wanted to order more. When a customer was unable to come to the store, the staff sometimes took a group of potential gifts to her home so she could select an item for purchase. Store charge accounts and layaways were extended in a time when women were often not given financial credit.
For History Sunday, Pauline will set up a display table with items from the store. "Edelstein's," which continues the 2012-2013 theme of featuring Tower Avenue businesses, begins at 2 p.m., Sunday at the DCHS building, 1101 John Ave. Admission is $3 and members are free. Refreshments and conversation follow the program.
The History Sunday series in 2013-2014 resumes the theme of Tower Avenue as DCHS' downtown exhibit is expanded with the help of another grant from the Wisconsin Humanities Council. To help DCHS with that project we are asking the community for full-length photos of iconic downtown business people, such as Henry Cohen and Harvey Buchanan. If you have photos or know someone else who does, please contact us.
Our 2013 History Theatre season opens April 19, 20 and 21 with another original play entitled, "The Big Dig."
If you are interested in auditioning for the play or would like to work backstage, stop by or give us a call. Tickets for the show go on sale in March. The History Theatre will also be setting up a playwriters' group, where new and experienced playwrights can meet to discuss their play ideas and works. An initial organizational meeting is set for 2 p.m. April 28 at DCHS. In fact, anyone who is interested in becoming involved with our event and program activities is welcome to join any of our committees, such as Events, History Theatre, Marketing and Exhibit committees. Involvement can be in the areas of planning, executing or hosting — or in all of these areas. Stop in or call if you're interested.
The Douglas County Historical Society is located at 1101 John Ave. To contact us, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call at 715-392-8449.

The two main types of asthma medicine are controller medications and rescue medications:
The most-prescribed rescue medications are quick-acting bronchodilators (usually given through an inhaler or a nebulizer), which loosen the tightened muscles around inflamed airways. The most common of these, beta2-agonists, are related to adrenaline and usually work within minutes to provide temporary relief of symptoms.
If a bronchodilator alone doesn't resolve a severe flare-up, other medications may be given by mouth or injection to help treat it.
If your child has been prescribed rescue medication, it's important to keep it on hand. That means at home, at the mall, at sports practice, and even on vacation.
Rescue medications, although an important part of asthma treatment, can be overused. Talk with your doctor about how often your child uses the rescue medication. If it's too often, the doctor also might prescribe a controller medicine, designed to prevent asthma flare-ups from happening.
Because airways can be inflamed even in between flare-ups, controller medications might be needed to prevent unexpected asthma flare-ups. Slower-acting controller medicines can take days to weeks to start working, but when they do, they prevent airway inflammation and keep the lungs from making too much mucus.
There are a variety of controller medications, but inhaled corticosteroids are most common. They're usually given through an inhaler or nebulizer. Despite their name, corticosteroids are not the same as performance-enhancing steroids used by athletes. They're a safe and proven form of treatment for asthma.
In fact, inhaled corticosteroids are the preferred long-term treatment for kids with frequent asthma symptoms. Research shows that they improve asthma control and their risk of causing long-term negative effects is minimal. (But corticosteroids that are swallowed in liquid or pill form can cause side effects if used daily over a long period of time.)
Long-acting bronchodilators also can be used as controller medications. These relax the muscles of the airways for up to 12 hours, but can't be used for quick relief of symptoms because they don't start to work immediately.
Even if your child takes controller medicine regularly, rescue medication will still be needed to handle flare-ups when they occur.
Your doctor will determine which type of medicine your child needs based on the frequency and severity of asthma symptoms. Be sure to report any concerns or changes in the symptoms to help your doctor select the best course of treatment. Both the type and dosage of medication needed are likely to change to continue giving your child the best quality of life and prevent flare-ups.
You're an important player in your child's asthma treatment. For example, you can track how well the medicine is working by using a peak flow meter. You also can record information in an asthma diary and ask your doctor to create an asthma action plan, if you don't already have one.

DCAA Audits:
Allegations That Certain Audits at Three Locations Did Not Meet Professional Standards Were Substantiated
GAO-08-857, Jul 22, 2008
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-9816
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) under the Department of Defense (DOD) Comptroller plays a critical role in contractor oversight by providing auditing, accounting, and financial advisory services in connection with DOD and other federal agency contracts and subcontracts. DCAA has elected to follow generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS). These standards provide guidelines to help government auditors maintain competence, integrity, objectivity, and independence in their work. GAO investigated hotline complaints it received related to alleged failures to comply with GAGAS on 14 DCAA audits. Specifically, it was alleged that (1) working papers did not support reported opinions, (2) supervisors dropped findings and changed audit opinions without adequate evidence, and (3) sufficient work was not performed to support audit conclusions and opinions. GAO also investigated issues related to the quality of certain forward pricing reports. GAO investigators interviewed over 50 individuals, reviewed the working papers and related documents for 14 audits issued from 2003 through 2007 by two DCAA field offices, and reviewed documentation on audit issues at a third DCAA office. GAO did not reperform the audits to validate the completeness and accuracy of DCAA's findings. DCAA did not agree with the "totality" of GAO's findings, but it did acknowledge shortcomings with some audits and agreed to take corrective action.
GAO substantiated the allegations. Although DCAA policy states that its audits are performed according to GAGAS, GAO found numerous examples where DCAA failed to comply with GAGAS. For example, contractor officials and the DOD contracting community improperly influenced the audit scope, conclusions, and opinions of three audits--a serious independence issue. At two DCAA locations, GAO found evidence that (1) working papers did not support reported opinions, (2) DCAA supervisors dropped findings and changed audit opinions without adequate evidence for their changes, and (3) sufficient audit work was not performed to support audit opinions and conclusions. GAO also substantiated allegations of inadequate supervision of certain audits at a third DCAA location. Throughout GAO's investigation, auditors at each of the three DCAA locations told us that the limited number of hours approved for their audits directly affected the sufficiency of audit testing. Moreover, during GAO's investigation, DCAA managers took actions against staff at two locations, attempting to intimidate auditors, prevent them from speaking with investigators, and creating a generally abusive work environment.

• ES 350 Priced 1.7 Percent Lower Than Previous Generation's Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price
• Lowest Hybrid Premium in Lexus line-up
• ES 300h Delivers EPA-Estimated Fuel Economy Ratings of 40 MPG Combined
The ES 350 is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine with Dual VVT-i that delivers 268 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 248 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 4,700. The six-speed sequential-shift automatic Electronically Controlled Transmission with intelligence (ECT-i) provides enhanced driving performance, fuel efficiency and smooth shifts. Low friction materials further improve efficiency and help with the ES 350's EPA-fuel economy estimates of 21 mpg city, 31 mpg highway and 24 mpg combined.
Both the ES 350 and ES 300h feature a Drive Mode selector. Normal mode provides a blend of performance and efficiency that is suited to everyday driving, while Eco mode favors fuel economy. Sport mode increases powertrain and steering responsiveness. The ES 300h adds an EV mode which allows short distance drives, at reduced speed, using only the power from the hybrid battery pack.
A stiffer chassis is achieved through lightweight, high tensile strength steel, added bracing and more body welds. Revised suspension geometry, shock absorber dampening and a quicker steering gear ratio deliver more precise handling while enhancing ride comfort.
The ES features a class-leading 10 airbags as standard equipment. The optional Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) helps detect vehicles in side blind spots. The RCTA alerts the driver to rear cross traffic when backing out of a parking spot. Available Lane Departure Alert (LDA) is integrated with automatic high beam dimming technology. The available Pre-Collision System (PCS) uses sub-millimeter wave radar, designed to detect certain obstructions traveling ahead and prepare the vehicle for a potential collision.
Lexus Safety Connect®, including Enhanced Roadside Assistance, an Emergency Assistance Button (SOS), Stolen Vehicle Location services, and Automatic Collision Notification, is offered on all new Lexus vehicles with a one-year trial subscription.
The standard Lexus Premium Sound System features eight-speakers with Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL), in-dash CD player, USB/iPod® connectivity, and an integrated SiriusXM Satellite Radio receiver with a 90-day trial subscription. The available Display Audio package adds a seven-inch screen, HD Radio™ with iTunes® tagging, Bluetooth® audio, automatic phone book transfer, a vehicle information display and a rear backup camera.
An available 15-speaker 835 watt Mark Levinson® audio system features an eight-inch display screen, DVD audio/video. Exclusive GreenEdge technology from Mark Levinson doubles the output of the amplifier, while reducing energy consumption by fifty percent.
The optional HDD Navigation System includes voice command, an integrated backup camera, an eight-inch screen, and the next generation Lexus Enform® system with App Suite. Lexus Enform provides seamless connectivity with Bing™ search, iHeartRadio, MovieTickets.com, OpenTable®, Pandora®, Yelp® and Facebook Places through compatible smart phones. Apps are updated through over-the-air downloads, so new apps and content can be added as they become available. (A one-year subscription to Lexus Enform with App Suite is included.)

Sometimes, it would be nice if the real world worked like major college sports.
Think about it. Any time some person or some entity thinks more money is needed, just hit the faithful for more cash. And don't worry about competitive pricing or someone undercutting the price. If one does not like the hike, then so be it. Two are willing to take the hit instead.
Three coaches in three years does not sound like the way to build a winning tradition in high school sports. Nevertheless, optimism is high around Anderson County volleyball in 2010.
The Lady Bearcats made history with their first regional win two years ago, then matched that last year. But the team is full of new faces in 2010.
Many of the faces are new but Anderson County's volleyball team played like seasoned veterans in defeating Franklin County Tuesday night. The Lady Bearcats held on for a 25-23, 25-17 win in the season opener for both teams.
After taking the first game, Anderson found itself tied at 11 in the second when coach Bob Hardin called time out. "Their faces were down," he said. "I wanted their faces up."
The Lady Bearcats regrouped and pulled away down the stretch.
Jacob Flora showed why there is such optimism surrounding Anderson County boys' golf in the Boyle County Invitational, held Saturday at Old Bridge Golf Course in Danville.
Flora birdied the first hole, then went on to a 3-under 69, leading the Bearcats to a fourth-place finish among 17 teams in the always strong early-season tournament.
Flora finished in a four-way tie for the individual second place, three strokes behind Clay County's Todd McDaniel.
One thing should be made straight before the first kickoff of the season: Anderson County's girls' soccer team is loaded.
"This is the most talented team I have ever had by far," Anderson coach Jason Earnest says without hesitation.
Bourbon does more harm than good
To the editor:
I read the editorial in the July 31 issue of The Anderson News about the blessings of the bourbon to Anderson County. In reference to those who go to church and don't drink being hypocrites, most of those that I know are not perfect but are not hypocrites. They just believe what the word of God says about strong drink. I know many hypocrites in other phases of life, perhaps there are some in the news media.

Large women, gays, animal lovers and anyone with a reasonable sense of decency will likely feel like showering the next time they visit the judge-executive's office on Main Street.
Who could blame them?
That office is where county employees have admitted in sworn depositions that they shared e-mails containing slurs against gays, pornographic videos featuring large women and stories about their private sex lives. This was done on county-owned computer equipment while you, the taxpayer, paid their salaries.
