President's Message: Consumers Need Us
By Trisha McCarthy
MAR 2012 President
Many often minimize or even diminish the work of a REALTOR®. The media, for example, has questioned the relevance of a REALTOR® in the search and sale of homes. They question our integrity and our capacity to do right by the consumer. Really?
I almost chuckle when I think of those types of misconceptions, especially when REALTOR® join together in so many ways as the strong Association and lobbying organization we are on behalf of homeownership and private property rights.
The Broker Involvement Program that is mentioned in the feature on page 14 and Insider on page 24 is one of those ways. Massachusetts was an early adopter and beta test site of the NAR program that heightens the effectiveness of Calls for Action by sending emails to agents through their brokers asking them to take part in a Call for Action on important industry-related regulations and legislations. Brokers can sign up for this program through the NAR REALTOR® Action Center, and the rest is automated. Our numbers are high for the brokers who have signed up, but my hope is that every single broker office will register to be part of the essential program that allows us to collectively fight for homeowner rights.
Another way we make our voice strong as consumer advocates is through our REALTOR® Day on Beacon Hill. Plan to attend this important event on Beacon Hill, June 4th. It is a great opportunity for us to share our views on the real estate industry with our legislators and let them know we are working on behalf of property owners year-round. For those who can make the trip to Washington, DC in mid-May for the NAR Midyear meetings, we will have an extraordinary opportunity to participate in a special REALTOR® Rally on Capitol Hill. This will be a chance of a lifetime for REALTOR® to stand together in the thousands and let the country see our passion and commitment to homeowners nationwide.
We are concerned about homeowner rights, their oppor-tunities to purchase a home and possibly sell it, even under dire circumstances such as a short sale. We have supported and fought for issues that have changed the industry for the better and will continue to support and fight each day so that our industry will remain strong and so consumers can achieve the American Dream. They need us. They need a REALTOR®.

Telemental Health in VA: A New Source of Support for Veterans
Last year, VA provided outstanding care to six million Veterans. In the next five years — as America turns the page on a decade of war — it's expected that more than 1 million active-duty personnel will join the ranks of America's 22 million veterans. It's imperative that VA ensures America's veterans, including those returning home from missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, have access to the high quality healthcare they've earned and deserve.
Army Medicine: Redefining Its Role in the Generation of a Ready and Resilient Force
Promoting health for more than 9.7 million beneficiaries in the Military Health System (MHS) is a shared responsibility among the military services, purchased-care providers and beneficiaries that requires team collaboration to successfully achieve medically ready forces, healthy beneficiaries and a high-quality, cost-effective system for health.
Navy Medicine: Strong, Agile and Ready
Since becoming the Navy Surgeon General in November 2011, VADM Nathan's priority has been to ensure that Navy Medicine is strategically aligned with the imperatives and priorities of the Secretary of the Navy, Chief of Naval Operations and Commandant of the Marine Corps, including programs aimed at achieving healthy outcomes for its beneficiaries — the 21st century sailor and Marine.
Moving Forward with Reforming the Indian Health Service
The focus of the Indian Health Service (IHS) during the past few years has been to change and improve the organization so it can better meet its mission. IHS focuses on direct delivery of healthcare services for approximately 2 million American Indians and Alaska Natives in 35 states through a network of more than 600 hospitals, clinics and health stations managed by IHS, tribal or urban Indian health programs
Public Health Service Pharmacy: Accelerating Transformation
Pharmacists are the third-largest category (and second-largest professional discipline) of the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) with more than 1,150 pharmacy officers. Commissioned Corps pharmacists of the PHS have long been a critical component to the provision of public health to the American people — particularly those in medically underserved and vulnerable populations.
Military Pain Management's Future: Less Invasive, More Data-Driven Techniques
In August 2009, the Pain Management Task Force (PMTF) was chartered by retired Lt. Gen. Eric B. Schoomaker as the Army Surgeon General. The PMTF membership included pain experts with diverse medical backgrounds from the Air Force, Army, Navy, TRICARE Management Activity and the Veterans Health Administration (VHA).

General anesthesia is a treatment that puts you into a deep sleep so you do not feel pain during surgery. When you receive these medications, you will not be aware of what is happening around you.
You will receive general anesthesia in a hospital or outpatient office. Most times, a doctor called an anesthesiologist will put you to sleep. Sometimes, a certified registered nurse anesthetist will take care of you.
The doctor will give you medication into your vein. You may be asked to breathe in (inhale) a special gas through a mask. Once you are asleep, the doctor may insert a tube into your windpipe (trachea) to help you breathe and protect your lungs.
You will be watched very closely while you are asleep. Your blood pressure, pulse, and breathing will be monitored. The doctor or nurse taking care of you can change how deeply asleep you are during the surgery.
You will not move, feel any pain, or have any memories of the procedure because of this medicine.
General anesthesia is a safe way to stay asleep and pain-free during procedures that would:
You may also be able to have conscious sedation for your procedure, but sometimes it isn't enough to make you comfortable. Children may need general anesthesia for a medical or dental procedure to handle any pain or anxiety they may feel.
General anesthesia is usually safe for healthy people. The following people may have a higher risk of problems with general anesthesia:
Ask your doctor about these complications:
Always tell your doctor or nurse:
During the days before the surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
You will wake up tired and groggy in the recovery or operating room. You may also feel sick to your stomach, and have a dry mouth, sore throat, or feel cold or restless until the anesthesia wears off. Your nurse will monitor these side effects. They will wear off, but it may take a few hours. Sometimes nausea and vomiting can be treated with other medicines.
Follow your doctor's recommendations while you recover and care for your surgical wound.
General anesthesia is generally safe because of modern equipment, medications, and safety standards. Most people recover completely and do not have any complications.

Further information
The time that animals who mate and commit will spend with their mate can be anywhere from a few months (like a season) to years. A very small group of animals will even mate for life - 3-5% out of 4,000 mammals, and that number doesn't even include humans. But it does include otters, beavers, some species of wolves, bats, and even rodents. And some of these animals take their commitment quite seriously - the prairie vole (a small rodent) is so devoted to his mate that he will attack other females who even dare to come near him! -
Does your city have a zoo or wildlife observatory? Perhaps you can visit it and take a look at the different animals! Can you see two beavers working together on their dam? A family of mice sharing their food? How about different species of birds and the many ways they help each other?
When you get home, write a story about all of the animal families you saw that day! -

"Do animals marry?"
Browse →Animals →Pets
Even though animals can't technically "marry" (since that's something that only humans can do), there are some animal species who will mate and commit to each other for a long time. Over 90% of bird species are "socially monogamous" (meaning that the same two parents will help raise their babies); penguin dads will keep their eggs warm while mom goes off to look for food, while bald eagles will remain faithful to their mate until one of them dies! Other animals that mate for long periods of time include gorillas, dikdiks (a type of African antelope), and anglerfish.
A marriage itself is actually a legal contract! While a wedding ceremony can be a beautiful way for two people to show how much they love each other, married couples pay different taxes and have certain rights that other couples don't. Since animals don't need to worry about things like paying taxes or buying a house, a "marriage" isn't really necessary!

A humanitarian experience |
Friday, 20 March 2009 | |
I have seen on television how our Army, Air Force, Navy, Police officers, doctors and nurses looked after our own innocent Tamil brothers and sisters, their children who have been the unfortunate victims of the blood thirsty ruthless LTTE cadres led by Prabhakaran. The above personnel are Good Samaritans. Today, I saw how well our humane doctors, nurses and the hospital support staff perform their functions way beyond their call of Duty. Indeed, I felt proud how these fellow human beings function with great sympathy as if they were treating their own kith and kin. Date - Saturday, March 7, 2009. Place - Lady Ridgeway Hospital, Colombo, Ward 10. Doctor Nandadeva Jayatilleke, Superintendent of Police Medical Officer in charge of Police Hospital Kundasale, Kandy, my nephew, gave me a call and informed, his son Harindu, while playing in an Under 13 International Schools Cricket Tournament in Colombo, sustained an injury to his leg and he underwent surgery at Lady Ridgeway Hospital and is warded at Ward Number 10. My wife and I rushed to the hospital to see our Grand Nephew. In the adjoining bed there was a weak, child about two and a half years of age by the name Radhan, a victim of a recent brutal LTTE attack in Mullaitivu. He had sustained a very serious leg injury which needed immediate surgery. This child who underwent surgery was howling in pain. This was an unbearable sight for anyone. I spoke to his father Ravindran, a farmer from Mullaitivu in Tamil and asked him what happened? In tears he started relating his tragic story. "Aiyya! We have undergone enough suffering at the hands of the LTTE for many years. Your kind hearted Army Personnel rushed to our rescue as if they came from heaven. About fifteen of us including my wife and daughter were trying to leave Mullaitivu, to proceed to a safe area and were about to alight an Army Red Cross vehicle, when we came under heavy fire from the LTTE. My beloved wife got hit by a bullet and fell dead on the spot. (For a moment poor farmer Ravindran could not control his feelings, took a deep breath, raised his hands to the sky and cursed Prabhakaran and started crying). My seven year daughter also sustained minor injuries. She is now in a refugee camp. As my son had a serious leg injury, he was transferred to Colombo in an ambulance, day and night I am by the bedside of my son, he is all the time asking for Amma, how can I give an answer to that question. Aiyya, your doctors, nurses, all other staff at the LRH are so kind and sympathetic, they look after my son very well, I am ever grateful to all of them." The basket of fruits and the packet of biscuits we took for Harindu, we gave it to innocent Radhan. He was happy and smiled. With difficulty he opened the packet of biscuits and started munching a few biscuits at once. It was one of the most pathetic sights we have seen. We gave his poor heart broken father a substantial sum of money for his expenses, tears began to roll down his cheeks. This may be one incident out of many thousands who lost their entire future due to this brutal and insensitive person Prabhakaran. When I spoke to the doctors and other staff members of the ward they told me there are many Tamil children hospitalised in other wards for similar treatment sustained in recent LTTE attacks. We must be really grateful to the Government for all the facilities and the humanitarian facilities they provide for these unfortunate victims of Prabhakaran. I congratulate and pay my humble respects to all the Medical men and women in this country and their support staff in looking after with much care our own Tamil brothers and sisters, their sons and daughters. It is indeed a meritorious act. When I saw these dedicated committed medical personnel at Ward 10, LRH Colombo, it reminded me and age old saying. Greatness means to wear the crown of responsibility, whilst remaining seated on the throne of humility. Courtesy: dailynews.lk |

What is a BARGAIN Item?
Bargain items can be brand-new products that our buyers have purchased from publishers at incredibly low prices. We pass these savings - sometimes as much as 80% off an item's list price - along to you.
Bargain items can also be publisher overstocks or other special purchases, so there might be a few scratches, marks or dented corners. There might also be a sticker on the item from the publisher. Regardless, Books-A-Million does not ship defective items.
Our selection of bargain books changes hourly, and quantities are limited, so shop now and shop often. Due to unpredictable demand, it is possible for us to oversell the available quantity of a bargain item. In such cases, we will promptly cancel your order and your credit card will not be charged.
OverviewThe year was 1957, the month September, and I had just turned eight years old. Dwight Eisenhower was President, but in my life it was the diminutive, intense Sister Mary Lurana who ruled, at least in the third-grade class where I was held captive. For reasons you will soon understand, my parents had remanded me to the penal institution of St. Brigids School in Westbury, New York, a cruel and unusual punishment if there ever was one.

Feature on kwerfeldein.de – Nasco Yankee Meet
Monday, August 16th, 2010Well, this post is kind of "off-topic" because it's about cars – not portraits, not fashion. Why that?
As curious as I am I went to a US-car-meeting (the "Nasco Yankee Meet") in Falköping/Sweden where I took some snapshots which – against my expectations – turned out pretty nice in the end.
So I asked the guys of kwerfeldein.de – a pretty cool german photoblog – if they would like to post a story about it as an article on their blog. They liked the idea, I wrote some lines and here we go.
Get to the post on kwerfeldein.de right here or click through the images below. Enjoy!

Dell asks shareholders to vote in favor of founder's deal
Michael Dell might soon have his way with the company he founded.
Dell announced today that it has filed materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that will allow it to hold a shareholder meeting on July 18 to approve the transaction Michael Dell and investment firm Silver Lake recently brought to the table. Under the terms of the deal, Michael Dell and Silver Lake, with some help from Microsoft, will acquire all remaining shares in the company that the founder doesn't own for $13.65 per share.

text: Making up the original super krewe, Bacchus' 1,200 members will roll along the Uptown parade route, in what's become a must-see on the Sunday before Mardi Gras. Actor G.W. Bailey ("Police Academy," "The Closer") will reign as Bacchus, leading the parade with the theme "Bacchus Sails the Seven Seas." Forty-plus years ago when Bacchus first paraded, it helped revive the New Orleans carnival by introducing the "super krewe" style and providing a parade that would draw visitors to town on the weekend before Fat Tuesday. Bigger, more elaborate floats and celebrity monarchs (the first was Danny Kaye) helped accomplish that goal and grow the club into one of the most popular in all of Carnival. Other famous monarchs in recent years have included Will Ferrell (who reigned last year), Drew Brees, Andy Garcia, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, James Gandolfini and Elijah Wood. Some other beloved Bacchuses from the past included Bob Hope, Ed McMahon, Perry Como, Charlton Heston, Phil Harris and Kirk Douglas, just to name a few. Named for the Greek god of wine, Bacchus is also known for its signature floats, including the Kong family, the Bacchagator, Bacchawhoppa, and Bacchasaurus. The parade ends at the Morial Convention Center, site of the Bacchus Rendezvous.

Wind Farming
Sunday, May 2, 2010 at 4:19 AM
I drove along the backroads of Pennsylvania yesterday to see much more of the beauty here. I realize that the Marcellus shale gas play is a huge industry evolving here, but I was shocked to see so many windmills in the area. I am all for renewable energy, but a part of me cannot get over the amount of windmills to get the equivalent power of gas fired power plant. I hope I see more windmills popping up, but with the abundant supply of shale gas I wish to see some synergies in the future.

(Just post what's going on)
It had been several weeks since Squidland invaded the tiny nation of Ishbeck. Hardly a kingdom to be honest. However it's citizens would disagree. Even though it is a tiny nation most of it's people were quite intuitive, that's most likely the only thing keeping it from being invaded in the past 600 years. Or maybe it was just pure luck, but either way their luck had ran out some time ago when the much larger and more powerful nation of Squidland marched its soldiers on Ishbeckian soil. According to latest news reports in Squidland, the war was almost over. This was good news for Eikero, she was in need of a few slave, her home was tended to with tens of them, but as a council mage, she traveled a lot, and sometimes work must be done on trips. As she folded her daily paper, and set it upon her desk, she peered out her window, she enjoyed her home, especially in this particular war, as it overlooked the a part of the small nation of Ishbeck. She enjoyed seeing progress go on. Slaves were already arriving in market, so she had marked in her schedule time to go buy a travel slave or two.

The new 911 Turbo S is perhaps the embodiment of one of the original Porsche principles: to make do is not an option. To stand still is inconceivable. We move on, and more awaits around the corner. Never anxious, always cool and composed. Looking forward at all times. This is why we gave the 911 Turbo S even more.
As a result of a modified valve control system and an adaptation of the engine management, combined with an increase in maximum boost pressure by 0.2 bar to 1.2 bar, the 3.8-litre boxer engine develops 390 kW (530 hp) between 6,250 rpm and 6,750 rpm. The maximum torque is an impressive 700 Nm between 2,100 rpm and 4,250 rpm. This means an extra 30 hp and 50 Nm compared with the 911 Turbo. Yet, even though power output has been increased, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions remain at the same low level thanks to the use of efficient technologies such as DFI, Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG), VarioCam Plus and the expansion intake manifold.
Visually, the engine is distinguished by an air filter housing with a carbon-weave finish and the 'turbo S' logo.
The 911 Turbo S models represent power in pure form, and they have the performance figures to prove it. With the standard combination of PDK and the Sport Chrono Package Turbo with dynamic engine mount system, the 911 Turbo S storms through the 100 km/h (62 mph) mark from a standing start in just 3.3 seconds – the fastest ever achieved by a Porsche production car. 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph): 10.8 seconds. Top speed: 315 km/h (196 mph). It has even been possible to improve driving dynamics, thanks not least to the standard-fitted Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) including a mechanically locking rear differential.
At Porsche, whenever we provide more power as standard, we naturally include extra safety features as standard, too. The track-proven Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) and the dynamic cornering lights are two examples.
Also fitted as standard are the lightweight, forged RS Spyder wheels with a motorsport-derived central locking device.
Inside, the SportDesign steering wheel with gearshift paddles behind the left and right steering wheel spokes is pleasing to the eye, and to the touch. The gearshift logic comes straight from the racetrack: pull the right-hand paddle to shift up, pull the left-hand paddle to shift down. Other standard features include the adaptive sports seats, the six-disc CD/DVD autochanger integrated into the PCM, cruise control, the choice of two-tone leather interior in Black and Cream, Black and Titanium Blue or Expresso and Luxor Beige exclusive to the 911 Turbo S models, and the windscreen with a grey top-tint.
Visual cues that hint at the enormous power within are the 'turbo S' logos on the door sill guards, rev counter, rear lid and plaque on the upper section of the to air filter housing.
The 911 Turbo S. The most powerful interpretation of the 911 Turbo concept there has ever been. Charged with a passion to surpass past achievements. Again and again.

On most days, and in most places, the U.S. is not launching drone strikes or streaming B-52s through the skies. Instead, at more than 300 U.S. diplomatic facilities in more than 190 countries, 11,000-plus U.S. foreign-service employees (not including local hires) are issuing visas, hosting delegations, delivering diplomatic bouquets or brickbats, arranging cultural exchanges, or reporting on everything from business conditions to religious freedom. You'd think that where and how the U.S. spends its diplomatic dollars would be of interest to readers interested in this general topic.
Read more »Harvard's most popular course is Ec 10, the introductory class in economics. This fall, 760 undergraduates were enrolled -- almost half the school's freshmen. Economics is the most popular major at Harvard, Yale and Princeton. Rightly or wrongly, these students and others will have an outsized impact on policy making, so it matters how the subject is taught. Yet many, especially those who only take first-year classes, get a misleading impression of how the economy works. We can do better.
Mike Konczal, a fellow at the Roosevelt Institute, cleverly suggested changing the order in which various topics are introduced. Instead of starting with two people in isolation on an island trading coconuts and bananas, students would learn about the business cycle. Only after those macro concepts have been introduced should college freshmen be asked to think about the legal and cultural institutions that make markets possible. At the end they could worry about how individual firms compete. Princeton economist Paul Krugman likes this proposal but is skeptical that it could ever be introduced. (Harvard's intensive summer course in first-year economics seems to offer a hybrid approach.)

As part of this new drive, Justice Department lawyers are studying whether they can use section 1079A(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act. The obscure provision extends to six years from five the statute of limitations for criminal prosecutions under certain sections of federal securities laws.

You have to ask what's up with a legal system that would want to put a man like Dylan on trial for bigotry, punishable with a maximum fine of 45,000 euros ($61,000) or a year in prison. There is, however, an answer of sorts to that question.

Block says fiber is beneficial because it can help women control their appetite and may decrease the number of calories they consume. Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, particularly after menopause, is widely viewed as one factor that influences survival.
Which is why Estabrook at the Comprehensive Breast Center is offering that nutrition class in the first place.
"When you look at cancers, most are caused by weight gain," she said. "The fatter you are, the more estrogen circulates in your body, and when there's more estrogen, the risk of breast disease increases.
"But cancer survival is not just about eating one kind of fruit or vegetable. It's about making the right lifestyle choices, including exercise. Diet is one part of a larger picture."

RMH Receives 2013 Specialty Excellence Awards from Healthgrades

Contact: Debra Thompson
Director, RMH Corporate Communications
RMH has received Specialty Excellence Awards in critical care, emergency medicine and pulmonary care along with other 2013 quality recognitions from
, the leading provider of information to help consumers make informed decisions about physicians or hospitals.
Critical Care Excellence Award™
, the
Emergency Medicine Excellence Award™
Pulmonary Care Excellence Award™
signify that RMH is in the top 10 percent of hospitals nationwide in providing these services, according to HealthGrades.
"RMH has a culture of continuous quality improvement," said Dale Carroll, M.D., senior vice president, Clinical Effectiveness and Chief Medical Officer. "We constantly focus on the use of best practices and evidence-based medicine to assure the highest quality care for our patients in all situations. These awards attest to the teamwork and commitment of every member of our team in striving for quality."
These rankings were published in "American Hospital Quality Outcomes 2013: Healthgrades Report to the Nation." The report evaluates how approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide performed on risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for nearly 30 of the most common conditions treated and procedures performed from 2009 through 2011.
For its 2013 hospital quality outcomes analysis, Healthgrades evaluated approximately 40 million Medicare hospitalization records for services performed at short-term, acute care hospitals nationwide. Healthgrades found that patients treated in hospitals receiving 5 stars had, on average, a 75% lower risk of dying than if they were treated in hospitals receiving 1 star (across 18 common procedures and diagnoses, such as heart bypass surgery, stroke, and pneumonia).
Below is a list of all the most recent significant Healthgrades recognitions RMH received:
Excellence Awards™

Pulmonary Services, 9 years in a row (2005–2013)
Healthgrades independently measures hospitals based on data that hospitals submit to the federal government. No hospital can opt in or out of being measured, and no hospital pays to be measured. Healthgrades risk adjusts for patient demographic characteristics and clinical risk factors, thereby taking into account how sick patients were before they were admitted to the hospital.
"Patient safety, quality and customer service form the foundation for all our patient care efforts," said RMH President Jim Krauss. "Recognitions like this highlight the commitment we have made to emphasizing quality in everything we do. Every person on the RMH team understands this commitment and is encouraged to deliver the highest quality care. Our team members are to be commended for these achievements."

"My daughter and nephew both graduating high school. They wanted a combined party. This invite was perfect. Was able to fit both of their pictures on one side and used the other side for the party specifics. Liked the "casualness" of the card. Looked fun yet classy. Both seniors approved my choice Considering I had a male and a female to appease. I procrastinated too long so had to pay for expedited shipping. Mercy pleased with my order and would use them again"
"Beautiful quality. Elequent but not formal. It works with a variety of photos. Our photographer was so impresses with the quality that he said he plans to use Tiny Prints for his future products."
"I absolutely loved the way my son's graduation announcement came out. The format and square card with rounded corners was unique and different than any others that our friends and family received. The photo and printing quality were amazing and the card stock used created a final product that,hands-down, was of far better quality than the other "flimsy" ones that we were receiving from others. They arrived a day before they were scheduled to, and the modified rectangular envelopes also added a unique touch to their final presentation. Absolutely Fabulous all the way around!!"
"I ordered these cards for my daughter's graduation open house; great quality card with a pearl finish. We have received many compliments and have had people ask where we got them!"
"Love these cards! They look even better on paper than online. My daughter described them as "perfect" and "classy". We are both very pleased with the result."

Overall an amazing route in a great location. Pretty straightforward, but remote - so self-reliance is key.
To the left of the low-angle Central Gully and just to the right of Pinnacle Buttress.
Screws - possibly some rock gear for belays (there is fixed gear easily found on both sides of the gully at 60m rope lengths)
Climbed the route Sunday, 4 April 2010. The right half of the climb was a raging torrent. The left half, was soft and wet, but screws held solid and the sticks were swing and forget. I brought with me a .5 and .75 camalot and a set of nuts, and was glad to have them. We did the route in 4 pitches, with the 2nd and 4th being primarily snow. The 3rd, though not as difficult as the 1st pitch, was my favorite. The gully narrows to a couple meters across, the pinnacle pushes rock over your head, the waterfall was running down the right half. I could literally see water rushing under the ice I was kicking in to, and the ribbon of ice we were climbing was only about a meter wide! Wild! I dropped my pack at the Alpine Garden, ran up and tagged the top 30 minutes later, and then returned to my pack to strap on the skis we had carried up with us. We skid down Tuckerman's and enjoyed a Hefe. Glorious.
i've been up this route twice and could only find fixed gear at the top of p1. There were two spots that had pins here, both on the overhanging wall: next to your head and down below by the snow. But the latter was snow covered and difficult to find. There was a pin near the end of p3 where a 0.5-0.75 C4 would also fit.
Any word on the condition of the Gully lately? NEice is slow to respond to inquiries...planning a trip in 2 weeks!

Beatrice Salo, 82, of Greendale died yesterday after she was struck by a car while crossing the street, according to the Greendale Police Department.
Salo was struck about 7:48 p.m. Dec. 17 as she crossed Grange Avenue at 68th Street. Police officers and emergency medical personnel responded, but she was not responsive, a news release from the Police Department, issued today, states.
The driver of the vehicle, a 21-year-old West Allis man, is a delivery person who was working at the time, the release states. He told police that Salo was in the intersection, and that he had a green light. There is no indication that alcohol or controlled substances are involved.
Video surveillance from a traffic video camera shows Salo crossing Grange Avenue in the crosswalk wearing dark clothing. The traffic control signal for Grange Avenue was green as indicated by the driver.
There were no witnesses, but the Greendale Police Department investigation continues.
The Wisconsin State Patrol was called in for an accident reconstruction.
