War and militarism have a profound impact on women inside and outside of situations of conflict. Sexual violence, intimidation and control—including clothing codes, public sexual humiliation and trafficking—are part of the patriarchal structures and systems that have oppressed women for most of history.
During active conflicts and in post-conflict societies, violence against women almost always escalates, leading to drops in women's education and employment and the sidelining of women's human rights. Militarized societies tend to fuel extremism—religious, ethnic, or nationalist—which invariably results in the repression of women's freedoms. The diversion of government resources towards military spending harm women and girls, who without opportunities, increasingly engage in transactional sex work and as rebels and soldiers for economic survival. Violence against women occurs in the home and in public spaces even in so-called peaceful countries not engaged in active conflict or war.

View all Global Fund grants supporting peace and ending gender violence »
Global Fund strives to create a world where women have the right to live free from all forms of violence. We recognize the continuum of violence, from domestic and intimate-partner violence, to political violence, and violence in the public space. We also look at the root causes and factors that promote a culture of violence in our societies. As such, building peace does not only mean the absence of violence, but ensuring just solutions to the world's inequalities, the end of gender-based violence, and women and girls' entitlement to all their human rights.
Our Grantmaking
Global Fund supports women-led efforts to build peace and end the continuum of violence. Our grantee partners work to address gender violence that is deeply embedded in legal and political institutions, community and family relations, and societal efforts to control women's bodies. Our grantee partners offer care and healing to women survivors of all forms of violence and promote women's active participation in peace negotiations, reconciliation and peace-building initiatives. They provide gender sensitivity training to police, judges, medical personnel, traditional leaders and paralegals to prevent and respond to violence.

For Some Elephants, an Uncertain — But Not Stressful — Future
In a thick pocket of acacia trees, a group of savannah elephants quietly munch leaves. Tails swing, ears flip and flap. Occasionally one scoops up a trunk full of dirt and tosses it across its face and back, to cool the hide and displace insects.
A few yards away, 3 researchers crouch in the brush, watching and filming. The setting seems peaceful and quiet, but the researchers are tensely aware: wild elephants can charge if frightened or startled. And the last thing a scientist wants is to be charged by the largest land animal in the world — especially while in pursuit of its poop.
Yes, poop.
"We needed fresh dung in order to gather DNA material," explains grasslands ecologist Marissa Ahlering of The Nature Conservancy. But what for? While collecting dung samples from wild elephants is somewhat dangerous and far from glamorous (see video), the work has been providing useful insight into whether elephant populations in Kenya could live in proximity to people and livestock without stress.
Quick Study: Do Elephants Get Stressed Out When Living Alongside People?
The Study: Ahlering, M.A., J.E. Maldonado, L.S. Eggert, R.C. Fleischer, D. Western and J. Brown. 2013. Conservation outside protected areas and the effect of human-dominated landscapes on stress hormones in savannah elephants. Conservation Biology, 27: 569–575. doi: 10.1111/cobi.12061
The Big Question: In East Africa, savannah elephants are increasingly expanding outside of protected parks and into surrounding areas where people and agriculture dominate. Do elephants experience stress when living alongside human populations — even in situations where they are not being actively poached? The answer, according to this new paper from lead author Marissa Ahlering of The Nature Conservancy and colleagues, can be found… in their poop.
Study Nuts and Bolts: The ability to measure stress hormones in wild animals has improved dramatically in the past decade with the development of fecal metabolite analysis techniques. In this study, scientists compared the levels of glucocorticoid (GC) hormone (which increases in response to stress) of elephants in a community conservation area (CCA) established by Maasai pastoralists with elephants at two nearby protected areas, Kenya's Amboseli and Maasai Mara National Parks. The elephants in the CCA are exposed to "dense human settlements, agricultural areas, and intense livestock grazing on a daily basis," while the elephants in the national parks are only exposed to humans through limited ecotourism and research.
To measure the stress hormone, scientists collected fresh dung samples and extracted DNA and hormone samples. The hormone samples were frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen, transferred to Nairobi for storage and then shipped overnight on dry ice to the United States where they were run through a series of metabolic analyses.
The Findings: The researchers found no evidence of chronic stress in the elephants living within the CCA. The stress levels of the CCA elephants were the same as elephants in the nearby protected area of Maasai Mara, although elephants at Amboseli exhibited lower stress than the other two groups.
What it All Means: The results surprised the researchers — they expected the elephants in the CCA to exhibit higher levels of stress due to a higher degree of contact with humans. These findings indicate that elephants can successfully live in human-dominated areas — and suggest that CCAs should be part of the solution in efforts to restore elephants to areas where illegal ivory poaching has decimated their populations.

Nov. 14 event will celebrate conclusion of $40 million campaign focused on increasing student opportunities, strengthening academic programs and enhancing partnerships in the region.
November 4, 2008
DEARBORN/ Nov. 4, 2008---The University of Michigan-Dearborn will celebrate the most successful capital campaign in our history, at a breakfast reception in Kochoff Hall in the campuss University Center on Friday, Nov. 14. The program will begin with a strolling breakfast at 8 a.m., followed by a celebration program at 8:30 a.m.
In large part, the success of our campaign is due to the hard work, generosity and involvement of our faculty and staff, according to Tom Baird, vice chancellor for institutional advancement. We are all making a difference for UM-Dearborn and our region, and I hope that all members of the campus community will be able to join us for this celebration of the impact these gifts have made.
The Nov. 14 program will include remarks from faculty members who have seen the impact of some of the major gifts that have come to the campus during the campaign, along with remarks from some of the major donors. In addition, Baird plans to announce the total raised in the campaign to date.
UM-Dearborn launched the public phase of its $40-million fundraising campaign in 2004. The drive has focused on raising support to increase student opportunities, strengthen academic programs and enhance the campuss partnerships in southeastern Michigan.
The Nov. 14 celebration planned on the Dearborn campus has been coordinated with events scheduled the same day on the Ann Arbor campus marking the conclusion of the Michigan Difference Campaign.

Lifestyle changes can help slow the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and return you to your normal level of functioning. They include:
- Exercise
- Appropriate rest
It is important that you eat a healthy diet. Be sure you get adequate amounts of calories, protein, and calcium. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to see if you need to avoid alcohol.
There is evidence that omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce the inflammation associated with RA. Omega-3 is found in fatty fish and certain plant seed oils. Talk with your doctor to see if these oils would be beneficial to you.
Reasonable, careful exercise can help improve mobility and flexibility. Exercise can strengthen your muscles, which may help keep your joints more stable. Consult your doctor before beginning an exercise program. You will need to tailor your exercise program to be protective of the joints that are affected by rheumatoid arthritis. You may be advised to consult an exercise physiologist or physical therapist to help you design a safe exercise plan.
Get Appropriate Rest
It is important that you get appropriate rest, especially when the disease is active. It is also important that you stay as active as you possibly can. Talk to your doctor about how to strike a balance so that you are well rested, but still getting adequate exercise.
When to Contact Your Doctor
Always contact your doctor if:
- Your symptoms do not improve with the recommended changes
- Your symptoms worsen
- You develop any new symptoms

The MPO — which is similar to the Atlanta Regional Commission, but on a smaller scale — will encompass all of Bartow County and include the seven municipalities within it.
Forming an MPO is required under federal law once an urbanized area acquires more than 50,000 residents after a census. As Cartersville has approximately 52,477 residents as of the 2010 census, it was required to start laying the groundwork to form an MPO.
Once approved by Gov. Nathan Deal next year, the Bartow County MPO will be the 16th in the state.
Although an MPO is based around the urbanized area that hit 50,000 in population, with its boundaries extended to areas where the city is predicted to expand in 20 years, Bartow County and local officials decided to make the county lines the borders for the MPO.
Radney Simpson, the assistant state transportation planning administrator, said it was a good idea to think ahead and make the entire county the MPO.
"Making a decision to go countywide is a great decision for the process — [the] travel demand modeling process. A lot of our data exists at the countywide level, so there won't be a great deal of speculation that needs to be done," he said.
Simpson and two other GDOT officials met with representatives from Adairsville, Bartow County, Euharlee, Emerson and Cartersville Oct. 9 at the Frank Moore Administrative and Judicial Center to give a briefing on what an MPO meant for their communities.
While an MPO is required under federal law, Simpson and his colleagues emphasized the benefits it would bring to Bartow County, such as getting city, county and GDOT officials in one room in order to plan out needed road projects, acquire additional planning funding for cities and the county and ensure clear communication of transportation goals between the public, the cities and the county.
"That's the beauty of an MPO," Simpson said. "To get all the decision-makers at one table and one MPO planning process, if you will, and everybody is moving forward on the same sheet."
However, Bartow County Commissioner Clarence Brown questioned the need for an MPO, citing the ease with which the county and cities have worked together in the past.
"See, we had all that. We had all that going forwards. The GDOT commissioner bragged about us working together. He just said we were the best and made it easy for him. But it's still moving like a turtle," Brown said.
Simpson recognized that even if a project hit all of its planning targets perfectly it would still take seven to eight years to get under way. However, he reminded Brown that an MPO is federally mandated and the only way to attain Federal Department of Transportation funding once an urbanized area hits the 50,000 benchmark is to form an MPO.
County Administrator Steve Bradley added the planning funds would be useful for the county as well.
"I think the biggest advantage to it, commissioner, is that we get that planning funding that would be dedicated strictly to transportation planning that we haven't had before," he said.
The transportation planning dollars acquired by an MPO can be used to fund any new positions created by the new planning organization. Those planning funds allow the county and cities to operate the MPO at a minimum cost to their local taxpayers.
One major advantage the MPO would bring to Bartow County is the ability for transportation decisions to be made at a local level rather than in Atlanta.
"Presently our road projects that are funded through GDOT are reviewed by the Atlanta Regional Commission," said Cartersville City Manager Sam Grove. "They'd still continue to do some of that in the southern part of the county, but this would put us in the driver's seat on that. That never really made sense in terms of having ARC review our projects when we weren't part of it."
While the ARC does cover approximately 20 counties, Bartow County was never an official part of its commission. However, under the 20-year projection rule, half of Emerson is part of ARC. That will change in 2016 once the county submits its first Transportation Improvement Program — a four-year investment plan — to the state.
Emerson Assistant City Manager Todd Heath believed having all of Emerson in a Bartow County planning organization would be a benefit for his city.
"In general, it allows us access to planning funds, which were previously going to ARC, so it would be more localized funds going to Bartow County to improve transportation, so we feel that would be a benefit for the community and the local area," he said.
Heath also hoped the MPO could revive some of the projects Emerson and Bartow County submitted under the defeated Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax, such as Emerson's plans to improve Old Alabama Road.
Even for cities that have yet to lay out any solid road importment plans, like Euharlee, they expect the MPO to be a useful organization.
"I'll recommend it to the council because it will give us more exposure, more control over planning for our roads and more control over the process of our planning," said Euharlee City Manager Trish Sullivan. "It will also give us the opportunity for some exposure to some individuals that have expertise in that area that we ordinarily wouldn't have on our payroll."
Adairsville City Manager Pat Crook also looked toward the future, saying the benefits of a Bartow County MPO would be better planning for road projects as Adairsville continues to grow and becomes more urbanized.
"In the long term, like they mentioned today, the urbanized area is in Cartersville. However, the 20-year projection is what they're looking at and that will highly likely end up here too," she said.
Agreements to participate in the MPO will be sent out in the coming months to the various city councils in Bartow County. Even if one city were to reject the offer, the MPO would still go into effect, as only 75 percent of the planned MPO's population is required to approve the measure. With Bartow County and Cartersville easily making up that percentage, Bradley said, the proposal will likely pass.
Bartow County and the cities have until the end of the year to sign the agreements and send them to the governor in order to start the approval process.

I find it pretty rich that Rupert Murdoch, who could out-sinister Dick Cheney and Karl Rove, is attacking Scientology but whatever, that's another conversation. Murdoch, who is very, very close with Nicole Kidman, which is why none of his tabloids ever sh-t on her, was tweeting Full Story

A celebration of life will be Jan. 26 in Ben Lomond for Gloria Susan Barnes, who died Dec. 10 at home in Brookdale. She was 66.
Born in Flushing, N.Y., Mrs. Barnes graduated from Palisades High School in Palisades in 1964.
She earned a bachelor's degree in fine arts from Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Mass., in 1968. She also earned a paralegal degree and was a notary. She retired as the appeals clerk for the county of Santa Cruz.
Mrs. Barnes was an avid painter and photographer, and she loved to swim.

Mrs. Barnes also enjoyed singing in her church choir at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Ben Lomond.
Mrs. Barnes raised two children as a single mother. Both children were born on the East Coast, and Mrs. Barnes moved to California to be near her parents, who had retired to Scotts Valley.
She is survived by her son, J.D. Sanderson of Brookdale; a brother, Bill Barnes, and his wife, Dena, of Arizona; a niece; and many close friends.
She was preceded in death by her daughter, Annie Born; and her parents.
A celebration of life will take place at 1 p.m. Jan. 26, a Saturday, at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, 101 Riverside Ave., in Ben Lomond.

Stories Flow at NU Athletics' Legends Reception
Bill Shepard talks to Dennis Leblanc, left, and Michael Kelly, right.
Photo Gallery of Wednesday's Reception
By Randy York
We all know what a good storyteller is – a person who has a good memory and hopes other people don't. That was apparent Wednesday when Nebraska Director of Athletics Shawn Eichorst hosted a reception inside the West Stadium's Student-Life Complex for such longtime Nebraska Athletic Department legends as Francis Allen, Don "Fox" Bryant, George Darlington, Al Papik, Joe Selig, Bill "Shep" Shepard, George Sullivan, Milt Tenopir and Art McWilliams.
Talk about stretching the truth. Allen, who coached Nebraska to eight NCAA national championships in his 40-year reign in men's gymnastics, saw Husker Olympic gold medal sprinter Charlie Greene sitting on the other side of the room, so he launched into a story about how supremely confident Charlie was in his own ability.
"I'll never forget waiting to watch Charlie run one time," Allen recalled. "Everyone in the race took off their warm-ups and started strutting around showing off their muscles before getting into the starting blocks. Charlie watched everyone show off and then got into his starting blocks in sweat clothes. He exploded out of the blocks and blew everyone away…one of the craziest things I've ever seen in a track meet."
Allen's Story Was Mostly True with One Exception
Knowing how Allen can conceive the inconceivable and how he can layer his version of the truth on top of the real truth, I decided to walk to another table and check his story with Charlie. "Is that true?" I asked Greene after relating Allen's portrait of the truth. "Partly," Charlie said before revealing the whole truth and nothing but the truth. "It did happen just like Francis said," Charlie confirmed, "but it wasn't a real track meet. It was an intramural event on campus."
The laughter you hear became the rule for three former Husker coaches (Allen, Darlington and Tenopir) and three former Nebraska administrators (Bryant, Papik and Selig), plus a legendary trainer (Sullivan), a legendary groundskeeper (Shepard) and a legendary manager who oversaw the Husker Training Table (McWilliams).
For old time's sake, "Shep" wore the same red-and-white polka-dot cap he's owned for 58 years. "Got it in 1955," he said. "Wear it for special occasions like this." Bill Shepard has trouble hearing, even with his hearing aids. But his fellow legends will never forget how competitive he was playing handball on the old NU Coliseum courts. Shep started waving his arms like giant windmills when I asked him how good he was playing handball. "I played against everybody, even the legendary Tom Novak," he said. "I don't want to lie, but I could hold my own."
Shep Tells TV Guy: 'Not on My Field, You Don't'
That brings us to a story that made its way across the Student Life Complex's multipurpose room. It's a legendary story where a legendary Nebraska groundskeeper went one-on-one with a not so legendary employee of a certain national television network. The TV guy managed to drive a small truck near the sidelines of what is now called Tom Osborne Field before announcing that he needed to drive that truck on the grass field in preparation for Saturday's upcoming national telecast.
"Not on my field, you don't!" Shep told the TV guy while standing in front of the truck with his arms tightly crossed.
The contentious verbal match escalated to a point where Shep had to summon Fox Bryant, Nebraska's Hall-of-Fame Sports Information Director, as a mediator. The TV guy said what he was going to do, and Shep said why it couldn't be done. Fox listened to both and sided with Shep. When the TV guy said he was going to leave and not come back, two Nebraska employees didn't have to say anything. They just stood their ground. The only words that broke the silence was Fox, who said: "See you later!" It was the perfect punchline to your classic stare-down between a TV guy used to getting everything he wanted and Memorial Stadium's Grand Poobah, who protected the stadium's hallowed turf like it was his own. Even though no one waved goodbye, I have to assume that seconds after Shep prevailed, there was a Big Red smile underneath that red-and-white polka-dot cap he wore.
Tenopir Shares Interesting Experience with T.O.
We end this story-telling column with Milt Tenopir's memory of recruiting with Tom Osborne, Nebraska's legendary coach and his longtime boss. For the sake of brevity, we compress Tenopir's tale of being in the Las Vegas Airport with Nebraska's head coach on a recruiting trip. As you can imagine, Osborne shook his head while walking past people pouring money down slot machines as fast as they possibly could.
According to Tenopir, Osborne even wondered how many people might miss their mortgage payment because they couldn't stop gambling. When Osborne spotted a phone around the corner, he walked over to set up a recruiting appointment. When T.O. headed for the pay phones, Tenopir disappeared behind a row of slot machines. He reached into his pocket and realized he still had six quarters, so he put three into a slot and pulled the one-armed bandit. Shockingly, the lights came on and the bells went off. Tenopir could not get the overflow of quarters into his pockets fast enough as he waited for the $60 jackpot. "My coat pockets were about down to my knees with those quarters," he remembered.
Two years later in a football staff meeting, Osborne talked to his coaches about the evil of gambling, and Tenopir confessed about what had happened that day when his boss was making a recruiting-related phone call. Osborne listened carefully and then proved why he has a photographic memory. "I thought your coat pockets were bulging that day," Osborne said, "but I didn't know why."
First Husker Legends Reception Not Likely Last
Yes, we all know what a good storyteller is – a person who has a good memory and hopes other people don't. Some people, of course, know and remember everything. And sometimes, they get a bigger kick out of an escapade than the person who actually pulled it off. For about 90 minutes Wednesday afternoon, Husker workforce legends reconnected with a small batch of longtime members of the media.
I surveyed the room several times and saw at least one person in each small conversational huddle smiling and then triggering more smiles around them. There was no program and no specific agenda for this midweek reception – just a relatively new AD who wanted to meet, see and talk to people and maybe even share a laugh or two.
The first Husker Legends Reception was short, fun and successful, and something tells me it won't be the last. When the legendary Jack Payne put on his coat to drive back to Omaha, he said he'd had a great time. I couldn't help marveling how he'd spent 46 years in broadcasting and was still willing to drive to Lincoln for a 90-minute get-together. When he put on his Ivy League cap, I asked Jack how old the cap was. "Got it in 1969," he said with his usual gentlemanly grace. After he walked out the door, it all hit me. A gathering like Wednesday's felt like putting on an old cap. However you want to look at it, an old cap is better than a new one, just like old stories are better than new stories.

They make a perfect complement to the copper flower pendant. See more of this necklace and other ideas for using Designer Seed Bead Blends in this Artbeads Cafe episode. As this necklace shows, all it takes is a beautiful color palette for inspiration to strike! Step one: Cut six lengths of KO beading thread approximately 24 inches long each. Slide the Patricia Healey copper flower pendant over all six threads, so that it sits at the center of the strands. Step two: Add a random pattern of the Midnight Magic Designer Seed Bead Blend to all of the strands. Start stringing beads onto all six strands and even on both sides of the pendant, so that the colors in the blend are spread out evenly. If you want, you can use the Spin-N-Bead Jr bead loader to quickly add your seed beads to the thread. Watch this video to see how it works. Repeat on the other side of the pendant. Make sure to leave a two-inch tail on both ends of the necklace. Step three: Knot all six strands of thread together on one end of the necklace. Thread the ends of the strands through the hole in a clam shell bead tip with 2 rings. Knot the strands together again, dab them with adhesive and then pinch the bead tip closed around the knot.

ICD-10: Risk Or Opportunity?
The new mandated International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition (ICD-10) must be implemented by October 1, 2013. ICD-10a complete replacement of the ICD-9 code sets used to report healthcare diagnoses and procedureswill affect all segments of the healthcare industry, including providers, clearinghouses and health plans, as well as government agencies.
ICD-10, however, is more than an IT effort. It is a regulation that has a large impact on policies, business operations, clinical processes, and healthcare outcomes research.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (April 18, 2012)—A pair of California breds and a talented filly who have had stakes success at Betfair Hollywood Park will be busy Saturday, the next-to-last day of Santa Anita's Winter/Spring meet.
Compari, who won the 2009 Snow Chief Stakes over Cushion Track, and Ain't No Other, the winner of the 2011 Harry Henson on turf, are among eight scheduled to run in the $100,000 San Simeon Handicap.
Later in the afternoon, Cambina, who finished in a dead heat with Nereid in the Grade I American Oaks last July at Betfair Hollywood Park, will have six opponents in the $150,000 Santa Barbara Handicap.
A Grade III at 6 ½ furlongs on turf, the San Simeon is the fifth of 10 races while the Santa Barbara, a Grade II at 1 ¼ miles on grass, is the ninth. Post time is 12:30 p.m. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10:15 a.m. for simulcasts.
Trained by Marty Jones for owner-breeders John Harris, John Nicoletti and Don Valpredo, Compari has earned six of his eight wins on the Santa Anita grass. The 6-year-old gelded son of Redattore and the Dixieland Band mare Southern Charm has earned $606,430.
Owned and bred by Tommy Town Thoroughbreds and trained by Steve Miyadi, Ain't No Other has won six of 14 and banked $249,123. He's been 1-2-3 in four of five races on turf.
The San Simeon also marks the 2012 debut of former Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint winner California Flag. Owned by a partnership that includes breeder Hi Card Ranch and trained by Brian Koriner, the 8-year-old gray gelding has been idle since finishing 12th in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint last Nov. 5 at Churchill Downs.
The son of Avenue of Flags has two wins in nine starts since his gate-to-wire score as the lukewarm 3-1 favorite in the 2009 BC Turf Sprint at Santa Anita.
Part of the first dead heat in the history of the American Oaks, Cambina will be trying to end a five race losing streak in the Santa Barbara. The 4-year-old Irish bred filly, who is owned by a partnership and trained by Jeff Bonde, has won six of 17 and earned $393,426. She will be ridden for the first time Saturday by Rafael Bejarano.
From inside out, the field for the San Simeon Handicap: Supreme Summit, David Flores rides, 116 pounds; Gallant Son, Leslie Mawing, 116; Victory Pete, Chantal Sutherland, 116; Sayif, Jose Valdivia, Jr., 114; Compari, Rafael Bejarano rides, 119; California Flag, Joe Talamo, 121; Irish Art, Joel Rosario, 116 and Ain't No Other, Mike Smith, 116.
From inside out, the field for the Santa Barbara Handicap: Hard Seven, Edwin Maldonado rides, 115; Cambina, Rafael Bejarano, 119; Glowing Spirit, Victor Espinoza, 112; Capital Plan, Brice Blanc, 114; Vamo a Galupiar, Mike Smith, 120; Bauble Queen, Joe Talamo, 118 and Camelia Rose, Joel Rosario, 116.

Car Care Tips
As heard on NPR
A Florida woman is putting her car in park after 576,000 miles. Rachel Veitch bought her Mercury Comet, new, in 1964. The car has been through 18 batteries and it's outlasted three marriages. Rachel even appeared on "The Tonight Show" with the vehicle. Now, her failing eyesight is forcing her to hang up her keys. She told Fox News she is not giving that car to her family, because they won't take care of it like she did.

Good Morning Guys (and Gals),
I have a new set of limbs that I'm trying to install on my bow myself......they're replacements from Martin for my Warhog (yes, splintered limbs). Anyway, I've gotten everything back in place, but when I draw the bow back into the valley, and then release the arrow, it feels as if the cams are not going to roll forward to tension the string....it just sits there for a fraction of a second or so and then takes off. Is this a function of the draw stop needing to be set a bit closer to stopping cam roll sooner, or should I increase the draw length of the bow?
I know that I should know this, but have once again been out of archery due to sickness (hopefully getting stronger now) and I've forgotten much of what I knew at one time.
Take care all!

Texting driver cited after 'flipping the bird' to police officers in unmarked car
A woman was cited after she "flipped off" two police officers in an unmarked vehicle who tried to warn her about texting and driving on July 22.
According to the Greenfield police log:
Two police officers in an unmarked vehicle observed a vehicle swerving while traveling southbound in the 4300 block of South 108th Street at about 12:45 p.m.
The officers pulled up next to the swerving car and noticed the female driver was texting.
When the officers rolled down their window and attempted to warn the woman about texting and driving, she responded by making an obscene hand gesture and kept on driving.» Read Full Article

Former West Allis strip club owner sentenced to prison for perjury
Dino LaLicata, 35, of Menomonee Falls was acquitted by a jury of the sexual assault charges but convicted of felony perjury. During a sworn deposition in a civil case before the discovery of the video, he had denied even being at Crazy Horse Gentleman's Club on the night in June 2010 that a young woman said he had assaulted her after plying her with drinks.
The prosecutor urged a maximum sentence of three years in prison, plus three years of extended supervision and a $10,000 fine, saying LaLicata had not only lied, but also got others to lie for him, including at a secret John Doe hearing.
"As perjury goes, I don't think the court will ever see anything bigger than this," Assistant Attorney General Miriam Falk said. She urged the judge to consider LaLicata's conduct at the club, and during the three years he tried to suppress the truth, even though he was acquitted of the assault charges.
Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Daniel Konkol began his remarks by saying LaLicata was not being sentenced for sexual assault, serving alcohol to minors or marital infidelity. But the judge stressed that perjury itself merited prison.» Read Full Article
Greenfield takes steps toward taxing district for infrastructure work
Greenfield — Road improvements and a much-needed driveway to Greenfield High School from Layton Avenue could be the result of a special taxing unit being established where there are plans to build a Meijer super store at 60th and Layton.
The Greenfield Common Council has authorized the city staff to take the first steps toward creating a tax incremental finance district for the area. Although such TIFs are normally established to help site development, Meijer has not asked for the help.
Despite Meijer's stand, the proposed TIF could raise money for the road work and a school driveway.
If its approved, property taxes on the Meijer super store would go the road and driveway projects near the development. Rehabbing West 60th Street is on the city's road improvement plan, said Mayor Michael Neitzke.
But Layton Avenue is a county highway that is deteriorating, he said.» Read Full Article
West Allis to hold hearing on 0.28 percent levy increase 2015 budget
West Allis — A 2015 proposed West Allis city budget calling for a 0.28 percent property tax levy increase will go to a public hearing at 7 p.m. Monday, Nov. 3.
Despite the nearly flat levy increase, the proposed $128 million budget offered by Mayor Dan Devine is 4.75 percent higher than this year's budget.
However, much of that is related to spending in the city's tax incremental finance districts that will only be done if there is development inside those districts, Mark Wyss, finance director and comptroller, said.
Then that additional spending won't cost taxpayers anything because the additional costs would come back to the city in the form of additional taxes generated by the new development.
The proposed levy of nearly $40.3 million for next year's budget would be an increase of $113,961 or 0.28 percent over the previous levy.» Read Full Article
Ball rolling on Loomis Crossing in Greenfield
Greenfield officials may decide as early as next week which developer to approve to develop about 20 acres known as Loomis Crossing.
The area is where Interstate 894 crosses Loomis Road.
The city is talking to two potential developers for the site. City officials say they hope one can be chosen who would plan a development, install infrastructure and sell parts off to those wanting to locate offices, stores or even a hotel at the site.
To promote development, the Greenfield Common Council last week set the wheels in motion to establish a special taxing district for the site.
Greenfield officials also are working on buying the 18 acres that the Wisconsin Department of Transportation owns now that would be the heart of the project area. The DOT's acreage includes a park and ride lot that would continue to operate after development.

Scott Walker ramps up campaign with start of 10-day tour of Wisconsin
West Allis — Gov. Scott Walker kicked off a 10-day tour of the state on Saturday, in the countdown to the Nov. 4 election, calling on supporters to "double down" their efforts to get out the vote in what is shaping up to be the closest race of his political career.
"We need people here... knocking on doors, making calls," Walker told supporters who hoisted campaign signs and chanted "four more years" outside the Republican Party headquarters on S. 84th St.
"We need you to reach out at work. We need you to reach out when you drop off the kids at school...wherever it might be. There's too much at stake."
Walker's plea and the last-minute blitz of the state appear to be an acknowledgment of the role voter turnout is expected to play in the tight race with former Trek Bicycle Corp. executive Mary Burke. Numerous polls have put the two in a virtual dead heat.
On Saturday, Walker touted his administration's record on fiscal management and job creation and characterized the gubernatorial race as a battle between power brokers in Washington and the champion of taxpayers of Wisconsin.» Read Full Article
Preps football photos of the week: Level 1

Speakers split evenly on West Allis proposed sewer lateral program
West Allis — The nearly 200 people who packed the West Allis Common Council chambers, a large meeting room down the hall and the lunchroom downstairs last week for a hearing on a program to help homeowners pay for broken sewer laterals seemed to be evenly divided on the program.
Sewer laterals are pipes that take waste water from homes to sanitary sewers in the streets.
The program calls for owners of residences of up to three units to chip in $40 a year. Then, if their laterals need to be replaced, they would pay only $1,500 rather than face the average $8,000 tab if they did it on their own. Just fixing a lateral would run a property owner $300. Owners would not be forced to get any work done, however.
Speakers who said they liked the program welcomed the peace of mind it offers. Owners don't know what shape their laterals are in and they could go bad anytime, supporters said.
The main argument expressed against the plan was that even though most people would consider $40 a year a small sum, many would have trouble coming up with it. Among the other arguments were that the fee would probably go up, that the fund might be raided and the money spent on other things and that people who have never had any trouble with their laterals would still have to pay.» Read Full Article

West Allis to start process to approve new city administrator
West Allis — Rebecca Grill, city of Milwaukee deputy city clerk, has been recommended by Mayor Dan Devine to serve as the new West Allis city administrator.
The administration and finance committee on Monday, Oct. 27, will formulate questions and interview Grill sometime in November.
The city administrator is charged with the daily operations of the city, like a chief operating officer while the mayor can be likened to the chief executive officer.
The city administrator also is the key liaison between the mayor's office and the common council. The administrator is charged with finding ways to improve operations, sees to professional development, makes sure the community is informed and often helps organize community events.
"We want to get it right, it's a very important job," said Devine who called Grill impressive.» Read Full Article

Posted: Wed Mar 6 2013
Most folk get more conservative as they get older. Not Her Majesty. As if leaping out of helicopters with James Bond wasn't enough of a thrill, our 86-year-old monarch has now taken to the stage, where she flirts with prime ministers, knocks back whisky and defends miners, black South Africans and other oppressed persons. Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am!
It's all just a fantasy, of course – but an irresistibly witty, entertaining one, newly created for the stage by writer of 'The Queen' and 'Frost/Nixon', Peter Morgan, 'Billy Elliot' director Stephen Daldry, and Britain's top royal impersonator, Helen Mirren.
Morgan's playful sketch of the Queen's weekly meetings with eight of her 12 PMs feels somewhere between a sequel, a prequel and a selection of outtakes from his 2006 Oscar-bait film. The real monarch's meetings with her PMs aren't minuted, so we're free to roll with the gossip and speculation.
Only Mirren could play Her Majesty in both her twenties and her eighties, and she makes her starry – most of this generous, touchy-feely portrait of a monarch whose aversion to tax, Di and progress are swept under the carpet in about two minutes by a bumbling caricature of John Major (the excellent Paul Ritter).
Daldry's gorgeous, nicely paced show is the 'Billy Elliot' of monarchism: final confirmation, after the Olympics, that the Queen is now a pearly pin-up girl for the leftie creatives who invented Cool Britannia. She emerges (who'd credit it?) as a David Frost-like interrogator – pro-Nasser, anti-Eden, and fervently anti-racist. But Superma'am makes great theatre: except in one over-coloured argument about apartheid with Haydn Gwynne's Thatcher, a spitting image monster. This landslide show should get a vote of confidence from everyone except the most ardent of UKippers and Marxists.
The live corgis which gambol through Balmoral are a tough act to follow – but the human actors are top-drawer too. The closest thing that Morgan's play has to an emotional centre is the monarch's relationship with Richard McCabe's charismatic Harold Wilson. He's caricatured spectacularly as a panto northerner, valued for his warm heart and unique habit of telling the truth.
It's fiction, but all the better for it. This isn't the Queen we actually have; but it's the Queen that most of us would like. Caroline McGinn
