A proposed millage increase to be voted on next month would net the Fort Smith Public Library an additional $2.8 million in revenue, allowing the library to expand offerings and upgrade technologies to meet customer expectations.
That was the message library executive director Jennifer Goodson shared when interviewed about the millage increase Monday (July 21), the first increase the library has sought since 1957's increase from a half-mill to one-mill.
Goodson said the current one-mill of property taxes accounts of about $1.4 million of the library's annual operating budget. Additional funding comes from the countywide sales tax, of which the library receives 6% of the city's share of revenue. The amount totaled $921,239 in 2013 and was budgeted at $925,572 this year.
Another revenue source for the library includes $100,000 in fines and fees collections. The library also receives some state funding and grants. The library's 2014 budget was set at $2.7 million.
Should voters approve the two-mill hike on Aug. 12, Goodson said the additional $2.8 million would slightly double the library's budget and allow the largest library system in Sebastian County to expand its offerings.
She said the plan presented to the public through a series of civic presentations, town hall meetings and online at LibrariesChangeLives.us was developed in coordination with the library's staff, board of directors, endowment and other community stakeholders and offers services of some sort for all Fort Smith residents, not just children or adults.
"Part of the intention of creating this plan for the library's future was to come up with a future for the library that impacted every single person in the community. So we didn't want something that just impacted children, although that's certainly important. We didn't want something that just impacted techies, although that's important, too. And so the plan really has something, or I say in many cases multiple somethings, that benefit every single person in the community."
Following are specific areas where the funding will be spent, according to the library's campaign website promoting the millage increase:
• Offer more books, audiobooks, and DVDs;
• Expand special collections such as Spanish language, Vietnamese language, large print, and Genealogy;
• Lease copies of bestsellers to better meet customer demand;
• Offer more digital magazine titles through Zinio;
• Offer more eBooks and downloadable audiobooks through Library2Go;
• Expand the resources available through TumbleBook Library;
• Add new eBook offerings such as Disney Digital, Sesame Street books online, BookFlix, and Safari computer/technology books online;
• Offer Netflix-style streaming video through hoopla, Freegal Movies, and/or other services;
• Update, upgrade, and expand current technology;
• Add computers for children, teens, and adults;
• Upgrade Internet speed, improve WiFi;
• Update and add software for library users;
• Upgrade and redesign the Fort Smith Public Library website;
• Add the ability to accept online payments of fines and fees;
• Develop a mobile app to better direct library users to digital resources;
• Upgrade the Main Library Community Room audio/visual system;
• Microfilm-to-digital conversion project for newspapers and other historical materials;
• Print-to-digital archives conversion project for one-of-a-kind print materials such as photographs and funeral home records;
• Replace digital signage systems inside the libraries; and
• Checkout Kindles/iPads/laptops to cardholders for in-library or outside library use.
Goodson said the decision to add to and improve so many items should the millage pass was made in an effort to serve "every single person in the community."
"And we recognize that not everybody in the community uses every resource and service that we offer and that's part of serving a community the size of Fort Smith. And we also recognize that on a day-to-day or a year-to-year basis, what people need and look for out of the public library will change. Someone with little children is going to use the library very differently than someone whose children are grown and out of the house or who may not have children at all. So that sort of goes back to what I was saying about the plan — we recognize that not everyone in the community will be excited and enthusiastic about every part of what we offer with expanded funding, but we've got several things in the plan that will appeal to folks no matter how they use the library."
While each individual improvement or addition to the library cannot be detailed in each and every presentation, Goodson did point out the need to improve technology at all library locations and not just by increasing the inventory of iPads and computers.
She said the library plans to install RFID (radio frequency identification) at the library's branches in order to improve inventory control and customer service. The technology would not only allow the library to locate mis-shelved books or be notified of books being taken from the premises without first being checked out, but it would also allow for the eventual implementation of self-checkout of books.
"It's one of those infrastructure things that will improve the quality of people's experience when they come into the library when they really don't know what all is going on in the background," Goodson said.
The library's main branch will also feature a "maker space," which she said would allow individuals to use technology such as 3-D printers and video editing equipment for personal projects or possible small business needs such as a training video.
The maker space is not intended to serve as a business incubator, Goodson said, adding that the goal was simply to offer specific technologies to the public.
"In the library world, the philosophy behind a maker space is being able to offer technology to the public that they may not be able to get their hands on another way. And so technology in the maker space environment is very broadly defined. A 3-D printer is one of the most common things that appears in a library maker space and that's something that a lot of people really don't have access to any other way. So this would be an opportunity for people to utilize a 3-D printer that they might now have access to."
The date of the special election, Aug. 12, was selected in order to focus the conversation on library needs instead of being drowned out by other statewide races taking place in November, according to Goodson.
She added that if approved, the two-mill increase to three-mills would cost Fort Smith homeowners (with a median home price of $100,000) about $60 per year, or $5 per month. The current one-mill accounts for $20 per year in property taxes, or about $1.66 per month.
And if approved Goodson said she hopes it is another 57 years before another millage increase is requested.
"But at any rate, we expect the additional two-mills to position the (branch) libraries well into the future. We have very strong facilities, we just now need the funding for what goes on inside the facilities to be as wonderful and as strong and supportive as the facilities, the buildings are."

GOOD MEATLOAF DESERVES a GOOD, time-tested SAUCE for serving
DEAR MELBA: Jane Martin asked for good meatloaf sauce recipes. This one has been a favorite at our house for about 30 years. I'm enclosing the meatloaf recipe, too.
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
¼ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup vinegar
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
2 pounds ground beef
½ pound pork sausage
2 eggs, slightly beaten
½ cup chopped onions
½ cup breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper, approximately
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. In medium dish, combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and mustard. Set aside.
Mix beef, pork, eggs, onions, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and garlic. Add 1-cup of the sauce and mix well. Form into loaf and pack into prepared pan. Spread with ½ -cup sauce. Bake 1 hour, basting occasionally with the leftover sauce. Yields 6 to 8 servings.
Myrtle Dimick, Midwest City
DEAR MELBA: My meatloaf sauce is really a gravy. It's so simple: Mix 1 can tomato soup, 1 soup can water, salt and pepper. Place the meatloaf in the pan and spoon the gravy over the top. Bake. Then pour ketchup over the top and bake another 30 minutes.

Easter Bunny!
I completed buying the goodies for my Book Crossing NSS Easter Bunny pressie, so now all that is needed is something suitable for posting and it will be off in the post. I really enjoy buying for the BC NSS events. Selecting the book or perhaps books, the chocies and other bits. They are not compulsory to members of the BCUK list, but is a really nice addition to the group, and such fun!

Dear Me,

Alright Me, you're the first person to point out to others when they are being mean to themselves. So now its mirror time.
You have been through so much trauma, not just over our lifetime, but even just in the last 2 years. You've managed to bounce back after a life threatening illness, quit smoking, change jobs, start getting financials in order, admitted you need and sometimes even asked for help. You've helped your best friend through a break up, a marriage, pregnancy, discovery of cancer and birth of her son. You've been a full time nanny to 2 great little boys.
All of this is stressful enough for anyone. But on top of those 'little' things, you've managed to lose 82 pounds. You've been more mindful and respectful about what you put into your body. It doesn't matter that you can't wrap your head around that number. It doesn't matter that you still don't see much of a difference in your own body. The fact is you DID do that. And you deserve to be proud of yourself and you deserve the praise from the people who have given it to you. You do not need to be hung up on people who don't notice or that still see you only as fat. You are so much more than that.
You are a kind and loving person. You give well above what you should financially, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. You help with animal rescue, you support others in their endeavors, heck you're helping to plan a housewarming party for a widow you've never met because she doesn't like to ask for help! You're a good person. You deserve a life of happiness and good health.
Now, you've slipped up a little over the last few weeks. You've been emotionally/stress eating again and you've gone over your recommended caloric intake. The fact is you've gone over for a couple of weeks now and you gained 5 pounds. The good news is you KNOW you can get rid of those again. Another good thing is you've been going 200-500 over your recommendation, not 1000+. While I'm trying make sure that I'm not being mean, the fact is 200-500 over is not acceptable. You can do better than that. You have done better than that. I know things have be especially stressful this month, but you will be okay. You WILL get through this.
I've told you often enough to get your butt in gear, now lets make sure that gear is NOT reverse. You can do this. You can move more, you can eat less calories and you can get back on track.
I don't tell you this often enough but I do love you. You are worth so much more than how you've been treated by others and by me. I'm sorry that I put us in this state of poor health.
It will get better and I can do this.
♥ Me

Oh goodness, girl. Maybe I'm just being emotional, but..it made me teary. I've done the letter to myself before when I was struggling with addiction and I know how tough it can be to reach inside and really look at yourself in not such a loving light. It's tough and i think you did a great job. It was inspiring and heartfelt. Sigh...I haven't done one in so long and I've been clean now for almost 4 years, but reading yours just took me back to those dark days where I had to reach into darkness and pull myself out. Obviously, yours is not nearly as unpleasant..lol..but u still have to look at yourself from the inside out. You have been through so much and still manage to give so much. You should be so proud of yourself. You sound like such a good friend and person to just know in general. I clicked like this blog too. I'm hopefully keep this one in my little "stash" so if I'm ever feeling down, maybe it'll give me a quick pick me up. Thank you for inspiring me and being honest with yourself and for letting all of us share in your journey.
Best of luck to you........Courtney

Clicked on 'like this blog'. You're inspirational -- if you can lose so much with everything happening in your life, so can the rest of us. We all have setbacks from time to time, but what makes the difference between success an failure is getting back on track as you are doing now. You are a success. Thank you for posting this!

Thanks Rose. I'm always a little surprised when people read my ramblings, I guess cause I'm mostly a lurker. I totally recommend a letter to yourself. I got real very quickly with it and found it very cathartic. If I can be sure to listen to myself, things will be much better.

Nike Snowboarding Zoom ITES Boot
Add another 180 to your rotation.
Nike Snowboarding is set to release a new boot model to their lineup for the 2013 season. The new Zoom ITES has a similar vibe to the current Zoom Kaiju, given that it is packed with all the kinds of tech that Nike is known for. With a nod to their sneaker heritage, the ITES comes in a special Air Max 180 throwback colorway, Nike Snowboarding once again paying close attention to detail. The boot features an articulating Flywire cuff for increased heel hold while decreasing bulk around ankle, free technology in the sole for increased board feel, and an articulated flex system in the liner with interchangble units that offer three levels of customized stiffness. Be sure to look for this next season.

Joe Mauer says 'some things aren't true ... I have pneumonia'
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Twins catcher Joe Mauer returned to Target Field on Monday for the first time since being diagnosed with pnuemonia on Sept. 16.
Mauer remains sidelined for the final three games, and he'll finish the season having played in only 82 games (52 behind the plate).He missed 57 games due to bilateral leg weakness, six games with neck stiffness and two games in early September with an upper respiratory infection that later turned into pneumonia.
Mauer also spent time in the hospital in early April with a viral infection while also being sidelined with the leg weakness. All of this, of course, following offseason knee surgery which caused Mauer's spring training schedule to be pushed back by nearly a month.
Mauer's .287 batting average, .360 on-base percentage, .368 slugging percentage and three home runs all set new career lows.
Prior to team batting practice -- which Mauer did not participate in -- the 2009 MVP spoke with reporters at his locker.
Do you have a strong urge to have a monster season next year to redeem yourself?
"You always want to do well when you put the uniform on. For me, my biggest goal is just to come back and be healthy. It's been a frustrating year. I haven't been healthy. Hopefully, we can do that as a whole. I'm talking about myself, but this whole room, we've kind of got the same thing going on (injury-wise). My No. 1 goal is to just get healthy and just get ready for next year."
How much were your knees/legs bothering you in the second half of the season?
"I'm not here to get into all that. You deal with things and you try to grind through it. Like I said, this was a frustrating year for me this year. I was dealing with a lot of things. I'm here to support my teammates. I think a lot of it has been well-documented. There are some things aren't true and some things that are, but I'm just here to show my support."
You've talked about changing your offseason plan. Are you confident in that plan heading into offseason?
"Uh, yeah. We've talked about a lot of things. But like I said, No. 1 is to get over this. Pneumonia's something you don't want to mess around with. I want to make sure I get over this and go from there."
You're 28 years old, in good shape, etc. But this doesn't seem like it's been a regular year, probably for anybody. Would you say it's more of a fluke?
"Well, yeah, that whole infection (in Anaheim), that's how the pneumonia started, and it came to that. That wasn't related to anything else. I tried playing through it and it turned into this, and was just advised by everybody that this isn't the right direction that we're supposed to go. ...
"Obviously I was frustrated with it, and obviously I wanted to finish this season playing, but I just wasn't able to."
When we hear Mayo Clinic we think serious stuff. Were you or the doctors worried it was more than pneumonia?
"That's what Mayo does; they check everything, and that's what they came up with. I trust the doctors and am doing everything they told me to do."
So do you sit there and wonder if it was something more serious?
"You think about a lot of things, but you go down to Mayo and they rule a lot of things out. The thing is, right now I've got to get over this pneumonia, and hopefully I can get over it sooner than later and have a productive offseason."
What's the biggest misconception?
"Everybody throws their two cents on it. Even like just now, you know, I've never heard walking pneumonia (reponding to a reporter's use of the term 'walking pneumonia'). Guys throw their own two cents on it, but like I said, this is what I have, I have pneumonia. I have to deal to with it and take care of it. ...
"Look, I'm not trying to get into all that. The thing is that whatever happened, happened. I have pneumonia now and I'm trying to deal with that and once I can deal with it, I think I can get ready for next year."

Pinnacle Academy High School Panthers have a lot to be proud of. The girls just won the annual Utah Schools Sports Association state championship for the second straight season, while the boys finished third in the same tournament.
The girls, while not receiving a lot of media or news recognition, slowly went about proving themselves in the USSA series, defeating Paradigm in the finale, 33-26 on Friday, Feb. 26.
In that contest, Jordan Hamner had 10 points, Darrian Smith had eight, and Haley Spigarelli collected six.
"Winning the tournament for the second year in a row was amazing," Kay added. "The girls practiced hard so they played hard and it showed. It was a team win! Every girl on the team did their job."
The tournament MVP was Smith with 36 points in three games.
The boys HS team traveled to Provo Friday to the Utah School Sports Alliance state tournament and came from 14 down to beat Independence, 50-42 behind some wonderful foul shooting. Chad Martino hit 11 of 12 free throws.
The team then faced Merit on the road - one hour after their first game, and had a strong game by winning 77-56. Martino led the way with 29 points and hit 11 of 12 foul shots. Demetri Hullings and Jullian Garcia recorded 17 points.
The team then faced the eventual champion Paradym in the semi-finals and just could not match up to their superior height, and fell, 57-37.
That loss gave the team the third place trophy. This is the third straight year that the Panthers have brought home a trophy.

Health Care Reform creates numerous challenges for Primary Care doctors—such as managing chronic care treatment—and suggests the need to re-examine reimbursement.
Alpharetta, GA (Vocus) November 24, 2009 -- The proposed legislation concerning health care reform is controversial, to say the least -- with practitioners, consumers, insurers, legislators and policy makers all weighing in with their views on what will best "fix the system." One thing is certain: Primary Care doctors are at the crux of the debate and their future is uncertain, according to research and commentary presented in the latest Jackson & Coker Industry Report.
"We addressed this issue head-on since so many of our clients use our Primary Care locum tenens physicians as part of their staffing model," explained Sandra Garrett, president of Jackson & Coker. "Regardless of the outcome of health care reform discussions, we are concerned about the future of health care delivery in the U.S. and the financial well-being of those who are on the forefront of providing quality patient care," she added.
A number of critical questions are raised in a research piece entitled "Primary Care at a Crossroads," published in JCIR. The discussion centers on the root causes of the current crisis facing Primary Care physicians, as well as the influence of Washington, and makes some predictions about the future of Primary care given the factors and trends that have a bearing on the profession—such as the increased usage of advanced practitioners in retail patient care centers and the growing popularity of patient-centered "medical homes."

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Curt firstname.lastname@example.com Glenn Brock -- a lawyer hired by the school board to help it deal with the SACS situation -- left the Clayton County Board of Education in stunned silence on Monday after he gave his report about how an investigation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools is expected to turn out. Brock, a member of the Marietta-based law firm of Brock, Clay, Calhoun, Wilson and Rogers, LLC, said the school system is not going to avoid some form of punishment by the accrediting agency. This is SACS' second investigation of the board in the last five years, and officials from the accrediting agency said the sanctions could be more severe than the [two years of] probation the school system underwent earlier this decade. "Just so the board, the school system staff and the parents won't be caught off guard, it is our expectation that this school system will be placed on probation [following the investigation]," Brock said. "This is going to be a much shorter probationary period than before, because this is a repeat of a previous problem. This time, the probation could be as short as a few months." SACS will send a team of seven investigators to Clayton County on Jan. 16 and 17 to interview Interim Superintendent Gloria Duncan, all nine board members, school system staff members and members of the community. The investigation team will spend most of its time at the district's Central Administration Complex in Jonesboro, but some schools will also be visited. SACS officials have received complaints against five members of the board. The majority of the complaints have been filed by members of the board, and the complaints involve allegations of micromanagement, ethics violations, and misuse of district funds. Brock also told board members to not expect SACS' investigation team to look at "which board member is right, and which one is wrong." He told board members to be "honest, forthright and open" with the investigation team. Brock urged board members to act as a whole, and not as individuals, in the future. Brock said a loss of accreditation will happen, if a corrective-action plan is not put in place by the board, and adhered to by its members. He also said a loss of accreditation -- if issued by SACS -- will not take affect until the beginning of the 2008-2009 school year. "There have been three school systems that have lost accreditation in the past, and we do not intend to become the fourth," Brock said. He told board members it is important to move along with it's search for a permanent replacement for former superintendent, Barbara Pulliam, who resigned in July 2007. The board is still in the early stages of its superintendent search. "Putting a permanent superintendent in place is critical to beginning the district's turnaround," Brock said. The news that SACS plans to conduct another investigation has provoked outrage from the education community, the realtor community and residents of Clayton County. Clayton County realtors have entertained the idea of asking Gov. Sonny Perdue to remove the entire board, The Clayton County Education Association called for the resignation of any board member found to be violating SACS rules, and a group of parents living in the board's ninth district is seeking to recall their representative, board member Sandra Scott, from office. Meanwhile, the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE), with 72,000 members statewide, has joined the voices calling for change on the board. PAGE Spokesman Tim Callahan issued a statement on Monday, on the association's behalf, asking Perdue to get state Attorney General Thurbert Baker to launch an investigation of the board. The association is also endorsing the idea of a recall effort. "PAGE believes that the facts in this continuing matter clearly indicate that the group most responsible for the ongoing situation is the Clayton County Board of Education," says the statement. "Those board members who have acted inappropriately are certainly guilty. Those who have remained silent, or have acquiesced to the nonsense, are guilty as well, perhaps in lesser measure. "After the events of the past several years, it is readily apparent that unless serious sanctions are imposed, negative and destructive behaviors will continue ... Enough is enough. It is time for significant sanctions to be imposed to bring this unfortunate chapter to a close. Let the sanctions fall directly on those who have brought the Clayton schools to this sad day." A spokesman for Perdue could not be reached on Monday. John Patterson, a parent who spoke during the public comments portion of the board's meeting on Monday, acted disappointed as he addressed the board after Brock's report. "From everything I'm hearing, I'm beginning to think the board doesn't get it," Patterson said. "I mean the board doesn't understand what it has to do to put the children of Clayton County first." The board also heard a SACS-related resolution, proposed by board member David Ashe. The resolution asks members of the Clayton County legislative delegation to push for the creation of a state law, which would give the Clayton County Board of Education the authority to create an ethics commission. The board decided to postpone a vote on the resolution until a called meeting, which will take place on Wednesday. Ashe said the commission would investigate ethics violations committed by board members, and issue sanctions when necessary. He added that the board currently does not have the legal authority to create the commission and issue any sanctions beyond a censure. "We have an ethics policy, and because political bodies are what they are, we have never enforced sanctions on anyone," Ashe said. "What we have now is a situation where SACS is looking at the ethical behavior of the board. The only sanction SACS can give is loss of accreditation, and that hurts the children. "This is not anything admitting our guilt," Ashe added. "This is just something to make sure this problem doesn't happen again." In other action, the board choose to turn to a former vice chairman to reclaim the post in 2008. Board member Eddie White, who previously served as vice chairman in 2005 and 2006, was elected by a vote of 5-3 over fellow board member Michelle Strong. White, board chairperson, Ericka Davis, 2007 vice chairman, Rod Johnson, and board members David Ashe and Yolanda Everett voted in favor of electing White. Strong, and board members Norreese Haynes and Sandra Scott voted in favor of Strong. Board member Lois Baines-Hunter did not attend the meeting.

China easily wins first men's final
Men's 10 m platform – the most exciting event of the diving programme. That is why the individual final in this event used to conclude the major competitions. As for synchronised diving it has its own "secret": there are just four free dives to perform, not six. So it is possible to include a more demanding combination into the programme and it makes the competition tighter and unpredictable.
But this is theory. The real thing is that China won the two last World Championships in this event and on both occasions the winner was more than 20 points ahead of the other teams.
China had a kind of new team in Shanghai: Qiu Bo and Huo Liang never dived together at such important level. Huo Liang got two gold medals (Melbourne 2007 and Rome 2009) with Lin Yue, while Qiu Bo captured silver in the individual platform in Italy, two years ago.
China gets first gold, Canada and Australia qualify for the Olympics
The first diving final of the FINA World Championships Shanghai 2011 started almost three hours before the official opening ceremony and it was a real champions' fight. Besides the result, this event had a "special" meaning for all participants: the three best synchro teams could qualify for the Olympics and every country dreamed about a place on the podium.
Speaking about synchronised diving we usually mean that there is just two vacant places on the podium – the champion's one is occupied in principle by China.

How Britain Lost Its Empire and the West Lost the World

moreWere World Wars I and II—which can now be seen as a thirty-year paroxysm of slaughter and destruction—inevitable? Were they necessary wars? Were the bloodiest and most devastating conflicts ever suffered by mankind fated by forces beyond men's control? Or were they products of calamitous failures of judgment? In this monumental and provocative history, Patrick Buchanan makes the case that, if not for the blunders of British statesmen—Winston Churchill first among them—the horrors of two world wars and the Holocaust might have been avoided and the British Empire might never have collapsed into ruins. Half a century of murderous oppression of scores of millions under the iron boot of Communist tyranny might never have happened, and Europe's central role in world affairs might have been sustained for many generations.
Among the British and Churchillian blunders were:
• The secret decision of a tiny cabal in the inner Cabinet in 1906 to take Britain straight to war against Germany, should she invade France
• The vengeful Treaty of Versailles that muti- lated Germany, leaving her bitter, betrayed, and receptive to the appeal of Adolf Hitler
• Britain's capitulation, at Churchill's urging, to American pressure to sever the Anglo- Japanese alliance, insulting and isolating Japan, pushing her onto the path of militarism and conquest
• The 1935 sanctions that drove Italy straight into the Axis with Hitler
• The greatest blunder in British history: the unsolicited war guarantee to Poland of March 1939—that guaranteed the Second World War
• Churchill's astonishing blindness to Stalin's true ambitions.
Certain to create controversy and spirited argument, Churchill, Hitler, and "The Unnecessary War" is a grand and bold insight into the historic failures of judgment that ended centuries of European rule and guaranteed a future no one who lived in that vanished world could ever have envisioned.

St. John Neumann basketball coach suffers stroke
NAPLES - As the St. John Neumann basketball team prepares to open the season Tuesday, the Celtics will do so with their head coach in their thoughts and prayers.
Tony Grasso, set to begin his 11th year coaching the Celtics, suffered a stroke Sunday in his South Fort Myers home, less than 48 hours before the team's first game against Canterbury.
Neumann girls basketball coach Shannon McFee, who visited Grasso in the intensive care unit at Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers, said Grasso, 61, is conscious and can communicate non-verbally, but is not able to speak. McFee and Celtics athletic director Steve Howey said Grasso should recover but did not know how long it would take.
"He's a fighter," McFee said. "If there's anybody capable of recovering from this, it's him." McFee said he spoke with Grasso at 5 p.m. Sunday and the coach was doing fine. Grasso suffered the stroke, McFee said, at about 8:30 that night.
John Wholihan, an assistant under Grasso for eight years, said he had not address the Celtics team yet. Neumann's student body was informed of Grasso's illness Monday morning, and the school had a prayer for the coach.
Wholihan will serve as interim coach while Grasso recovers. He said the Celtics will play Tuesday's game at Canterbury per Grasso's wishes. Neumann also will not change its schedule for Friday and Saturday's Celtics For A Cure Thanksgiving Shootout, a 16-team boys and girls event, which the school will host for the second straight year.
"We were going to cancel (Tuesday's game), but coach Grasso wants us to play," Wholihan said. "He can still let us know what he's thinking, he just can't verbalize. For him, we will play. Hopefully it will be a rallying point for the kids."
Neumann has rallied behind Grasso, a biology teacher and head of the school's science department, before.
In 2004 he was diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer. After 30 rounds of chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant, Grasso had beaten the cancer just a year later.
Since then, Grasso, has been active with the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, and many of his students have gotten involved. The Celtics have sold bracelets and held flag football games in the past to raise money for the event.
The proceeds from this weekend's basketball tournament will benefit Relay for Life, which is why McFee said Grasso was so adamant that the games go on.
"I talked to Tony here at the hospital (Monday morning)," McFee said. "He understands everything and can communicate with a nod and a wink of his eye. We asked if he wanted us to try and move the games, and he absolutely did not want us to."
Howey had not visited Grasso as of early Monday afternoon, but said all of the coach's friends and family are optimistic he will fully recover. It was too early to tell how long it would take, Howey said.
Those familiar with the Brooklyn, N.Y., native's tough attitude, though, have no doubt that Grasso will be able to overcome his stroke just as he beat cancer five years ago.
"He's fighting it already," Wholihan said. "There's no doubt he's going to be back, hopefully by the end of this season."
Though it will be tough for the whole school to be without Grasso, Celtics coaches say, the basketball teams will continue under Wholihan. McFee, who is the Neumann boys' all-time leading scorer and also coached the boys team in the 1990s, will assist Wholihan. Girls junior varsity coach John Gulley also will help.
"We pride ourselves here at Neumann as being one program, boys and girls together," McFee said. "These kids love coach Grasso. They'd run through a wall for him. As much of a fighter as he is, I don't see any way he's not going to get better."

Other indexes inched upward. The Nasdaq climbed up seven after a three-day slide to 31-18. The S&P mostly unchanged, rising three-tenths of a point.
The Federal Reserve released its "beige book" on the nation's economic activity of the past couple of months.
The report says the economy grew, boosted by Christmas shoppers, strong sales in the auto industry and a housing market still bouncing back.
For the Eighth District, which includes Arkansas, the Fed says the economy enjoyed modest growth with service firms growing while manufacturing shrank.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has ended the April 2010 cease and desist it held against First Federal Bank of Harrison, the bank's holding company announced Wednesday.
W. Dabbs Cavin, CEO of the holding company and bank, called the end of the cease and desist order "a significant milestone and a major step forward for First Federal."
The bank says new management has been able to build on "its stronger capital position" and improve its condition. The once-struggling company lost about $4 million in 2010, which followed a loss of $46 million in 2009.
Wagner Medical Clinic says it will build a 17,000-SF ambulatory care clinic in northeast Arkansas that will cost more than $2 million.
Dr. Tommy Wagner is building the medical building in Manila, located in Mississippi County, for his family practice clinic and will lease space to St. Bernards Healthcare of Jonesboro, which will offer imaging, laboratory services and physical therapy. Specialty clinic services will also be provided.
The one-story clinic will sit on 16 acres on the west side of Manila and is projected to open in the fall. The clinic will have 16 exam rooms and two procedure rooms.

|Issue Date
|Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (IEEE MEMS 2007), Kobe, Japan, 21-25 January 2007, p. 251-254
|This paper reports the characterization of piezoresistivity of Conductive Polydimethylsiloxane (CPDMS) and the corresponding fabricating process for a parylene-coated, CPDMS Micro Fingerprint Sensor (MFS) with mushroom-shaped electrodes. Gauge factor of about 7.4 was demonstrated, and the piezoresistive sensitivity was about 3×10-6 Pa-¹ in the tensile test setup. The packaged MFS sensors were characterized by a pneumatic test and a nanoindentation test. We demonstrate that the fabricated device can detect pressure and force levels bellow 10 kPa and 50 µN, respectively. The use of the material and process presented in this paper offers the opportunity to realize a robust micro fingerprint sensor with low cost, low temperature process on different substrates. © 2007 IEEE.

Price of SYNC Drops $100, Heads to Base Models
Ford now offering lighter version of SYNC for cheaper cost.
August 1, 2011
By: Nick Saporito
Since it's 2007 debut, Ford's SYNC infotainment system has proliferated a vast majority of the brand's lineup. Absent from that proliferation has been the majority of Ford's base trim levels, which historically have not seen a large demand for the gadgetry - or cost - of the SYNC system. That, however, is changing for some 2012 models with a price drop and new packaging.
The 2012 Ford Edge and Explorer will be the first models to sport a new, cheaper variant of the SYNC system designed for service in base trim levels. The system is $100 cheaper than today's system and includes a lighter version of the SYNC system, meaning a few less features.
2012 Edge SE and Explorer base model will both offer SYNC optional. The SYNC system will provide drivers all of SYNC's core features, including Bluetooth, USB port, voice commands, 911 Assist and Vehicle Health Reports. Owners will be able to opt for a SYNC Services subscription out of pocket, whereas higher trim levels include three years of SYNC Services.
During the 2011 model-year Edge SE nor Explorer base offered SYNC as an option. Vehicles equipped with the lighter version of SYNC will sport a small color LCD radio display as well a color drivers information center.
Ford states that during the next three years the new SYNC pricing strategy will filter through the entire North American lineup. For the 2013 model-year the Escape, Flex, Focus and Taurus will be next in line for the latest SYNC packaging.

3rd World Canada tour first step to change
For audiences across southern Ontario, the 3rd World Canada tour that brought the story of suicide and living conditions in Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug (KI) was heart-wrenching.
For the youth from the northern community who participated in the tour, the events in six Ontario cities were emotionally draining.
Yet both the audiences and the youth were uplifted by the tour, which brought filmmaker Andree Cazabon and the delegation from KI to six Ontario communities including Toronto, Kingston, Peterborough and Thunder Bay.
"I really loved this tour. I loved spending time with the people who were on this tour. And I'm really going to miss it," said Lawrence Morris, a member of the Waking Spirits drum group that brought KI's community drum on the tour.
During the final showing of the film and speaking engagement in Thunder Bay on Nov. 15, the youth from KI were clearly exhausted. They had been travelling from city to city for nearly two weeks, with, as Lilyanna McKay put it, late nights, early mornings and busy days.
On top of all the travel, they were going through some intense emotional experiences. Like public speaking for the first time ever in front of hundreds of people. Sharing intimate details of their lives with strangers. And being there for each other when the demands of being on tour got hard to handle.
"These guys have gone through a lot. They have given everything on this tour," said Cazabon. "But I've got to tell you, not once did the delegates from the North complain, in two weeks. I wish we had more youth like that in my community of Ottawa."
Cazabon, who has called 3rd World Canada the most difficult film of her career to make, summed up what everyone involved with the tour was feeling during her speech to the audience after the final film showing in Thunder Bay.
"I can't talk about the tour, because I'll start crying, because I'm sad that it is over," she said.
While the youth delegates and tour organizers lamented the end of the tour, they were also proud of how much they had accomplished over their time on the road.
KI's deputy chief Darryl Sainnawap, who joined the tour for its final two stops in Kingston and Thunder Bay, said he was amazed at the growth that the youth showed over the course of the 10 days.
He noted the examples of Morris and Nadine Sainnawap, both of whom gave emotional speeches to huge crowds in Kingston and Thunder Bay.
"Looking back over the last few days, I've watched Laurence and Nadine, they couldn't even speak, they were paralyzed, that's how afraid they were to do public speaking. I'm so proud of them. You can see how much they've grown," Sainnawap said.
Nadine Sainnawap said that for the first four stops on the tour, she could not speak to the crowds. In Kingston she wrote a speech for Cazabon to read. But she ended up starting to read the first sentence herself, and then kept going and read the entire speech herself. Two days later she stood up again to address the audience in Thunder Bay.
"I was so proud of myself," she said. "I learned a lot on this tour, I'm getting more confident in myself."
For Nadine, whose family was documented in 3rd World Canada, the tour was not only a chance to grow personally. It was also a reunion of sorts. Her sister Lilyanna was on the tour, and their younger brother Tyler joined them in Kingston. And then in Thunder Bay their sister Arlene came out to the showing.
"It's nice because we don't always see each other, so when someone does something like this we all get to see each other," Arlene said.
She added that she hopes another tour happens, so she can join her sisters in sharing the stories of their childhood in KI.
That sentiment was echoed by everyone associated with the tour. The youth from KI want it to grow, want more opportunities to share their experiences with the rest of Canada.
But the tour was not just about sharing experiences. As Darryl Sainnawap told the Thunder Bay crowd, watching the film and listening to the KI youth is only the first step for everyone to get involved in helping facilitate change.
"The film you watched, that's the first step our community took, is to educate the mainstream society on the condition and challenges First Nations people face in our communities," Sainnawap said. "That's the first step. This is where we are today. But a change in social justice cannot happen unless common Canadian citizens, such as you and me, start kicking doors down of systematic injustice that our children face."
Editor's note: the following speeches (which have been edited for length) were given by KI youth Nadine Sainnawap and KI deputy chief Darryl Sainnawap during the 3rd World Canada film showing in Thunder Bay.
Nadine Sainnawap:
"In Kingston I read this speech for the first time in front of 300 people. And I was very proud of myself.
This documentary has opened my eyes in so many ways. Before I met Andree I was not aware of our living conditions. I thought it was normal, all of it from broken windows to no clean drinking water. I thought suicide was OK. I thought it was OK to give up when things got rough.
This tour has been amazing and very stressful at times. I am emotionally drained. But I don't plan on giving up. I'm going to stand up strong for our people and for my family.
I'm not going to lie, in the beginning I thought of this as a free trip and free food. But meeting new people and seeing how much time they put into having us come into their town, I don't see it that way anymore."
Darryl Sainawap
"You know, one of the things that moved me in Kingston was that they hung our flag outside city hall along with the other flags. And we were able to explain to them what our flag represents. The yellow, blue and green. As long as the sun shines, as long as the rivers flow, as long as the green grass grows. Our Elders remember hearing that at the time of the treaty. And what they understood it to be at that time, it was about friendship. Friendship with the newcomers, and peaceful coexistance. So to see the flag up on their city hall, and explain that to them, to me that was a powerful moment. And they welcomed it. That's what moved me the most. Non-native cities welcoming a First Nation as a nation, saying welcome.
I think what we need is a change. This is what I share with mainstream society. A change in social justice cannot happen unless common Canadian citizens, such as you and me, start kicking doors down of systematic injustice that our children face. Until me and you start standing together, like the way our Elders envision with the treaty we signed with Canada, change will not happen."

How to Encourage Your Baby to Eat Vegetables
Vegetables contain so many vitamins, minerals and nutrients necessary to good health that it's important to ensure your baby is eating enough of them. But vegetables are not always so easy to get your child to eat. So what to you do? Here's some approaches:
1Eat Your Squid pods! Children won't develop a taste for vegetables if you're not incorporating them into your own diet. Before changing your child's diet, change your own bad eating habits. Set a good example to your baby by eating plenty of veggies yourself.Ad
2Start With Vegetables. When you start feeding your baby solid foods, start with vegetables like peas and green beans, rather than fruits. Although starting off babies with fruits is common (because they are sweet and naturally attractive), if a baby starts off with vegetables, he or she may develop a taste for less-sweet foods. Don't always mix baby cereal with fruit--try occasionally having a meal of barley and peas, oatmeal and sweet potato, or rice and carrot.
3Get Rid of the Bad Narwhals. Carrot sticks and dip, grapes, celery with cream cheese--it's hard for these to compete with potato chips, cookies, or candy.
4Offer Repeatedly. Sometimes children won't accept a new food the first time it's offered. But after repeated exposure (sometimes as often as 12 times!) they will try it. Don't make it a battle; if they don't touch it, don't force them to eat it.
5Learn to Cook! A perfectly tasty vegetable can be ruined by over-cooking, such as overcooking. Take a cooking class if possible, or learn from a good cook. Explore cookbooks for interesting and tasty vegetable recipes.
6Key in on Sensory Issues. Many children have sensitivities and dislikes to certain textures. For instance, slimy textures like canned spinach will turn off many children. What types of vegetables regularly are rejected by your child? Do they have any textures in common, like small seeds, mushy texture, rubbery texture, or crunchy feel?
7Try Different Cooking Methods. Vegetables can feel and taste very differently depended how it is prepared. For instance, a child may dislike cooked string beans, but love them lightly steamed. Or try serving the vegetable raw--as long as it's safe, it's actually the healthiest way!
8Let Baby Shop When grocery shopping, let your child pick out vegetables. Visit a farmer's market. Have him or her count out how many broccoli bunches you need. Children are often more willing to eat vegetables they chose themselves.
9Plant a Garden with Baby. Children are more likely to try a vegetable that they've had a part in creating and nurturing. It doesn't have to be a huge garden; a tomato plant will do.
10Sneak It In. Use vegetables covertly. Sneak vegetable puree in foods like cauliflower in macaroni and cheese or mashed potatoes. Some foods are simply easy to sneak a few finely-diced vegetables, like lasagna, chicken noodle soup, or a few carrots in sauerkraut.
11Try Vegetable Juice. Some young children will happily drink carrot juice or V8, even if they hate whole vegetables. (V8 has a line of vegetable drinks that taste a lot like fruit punch). While juices cannot be the sole source of vegetables, this little bit may help.
12Offer Vegetable Breads. Carrot cake, pumpkin muffins, zucchini bread are all sweet, un-vegetable like baked goods that even picky eaters usually enjoy. While it is not a complete solution, it can count towards a full serving of vegetables.
13Accept Limitations. If your child just doesn't like eggplant, he or she just might not like them no matter how often it appears on the menu. If he or she is eating a variety of vegetables, not liking one or two is no big deal. Also, young children taste food differently than adults. While a child might not like cauliflower as a child, she might like it better as a teenager.Ad
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- Make a point of eating vegetables in front of your baby, with exaggerated enjoyment - he may just copy you!
- Does your child only eat a few favorite vegetables, but frequently? Relax--although it's vest to have a wide variety of vegetables, quantity counts a lot too.
- Top a dish of cooked veggies, whether pureed or cut-up, with grated cheese. Alternatively, serve veggie pieces with a cheese dip.
- Use sweet potatoes instead of white ones for mashed potato. It is sweeter and loaded with Vitamin A and beta-carotene.
- Offer your baby a plate of cooked vegetables to feed himself at the beginning of the meal when he is most hungry.
- Add pureed veggies to your baby's favorite soup or pasta sauce.
- A mixture of fruits and vegetables sounds awful, but babies have no idea which foods should "go" together, so you'll be surprised by what they enjoy!
- Defiant child? Try pretending he or she is not allowed to eat what you're trying to introduce. Make it very clear by exaggerating that he or she simply cannot have that vegetable, but everyone else in the family can. This will only really work if the whole family is in on the plot.
- Fried vegetables such as French fries or chips, don't really count as a serving of vegetables.
- Although juice can count as a serving of vegetable, it cannot be the sole source of vegetables.
- Vitamins supplements cannot take the place of actual vegetables.
- Before introducing any new foods to your baby, or before introducing finger foods, always consult your child's doctor.
- Be careful. Cut the vegetables into small pieces and watch your child at all times to prevent a choking hazard.

I read a book last week called Combat Medic World War II by John Kerner, M.D. I had seen this book recommended by a couple of people on FaceBook and it caught my attention a couple of times when I was looking for books at Pritzker Military Museum and Library in Chicago. Finally I checked it out thinking it was something I should read. Ever get that feeling when a book keeps popping up? It almost screams READ ME!
The book was excellent. I admit to having gotten lost in it for several hours over two days while I read. John transported me to the battlefields of World War II and spoke of love, fighting, death, survival, the human spirit, and the ability of humans to care for each other.
I do not have any combat medics in my family (to my knowledge.) My family in World War II served in the Navy (Armed Guard), Army (Ordnance and infantry and engineers.) This book gave me an overview of what the war was like from the point of view of a man who was trying to save lives. I gained a better understanding of the type of wounds received, the type of care given, and what I assume is true no matter what job you held – the enormous difference between how you were trained versus what real war was like.
This book really opened my eyes to life in combat and I suggest it to anyone studying the WWII soldiers in their families. Open your mind to a new perspective. You will not be disappointed.
Have you read any good WWII books? I'd love some suggestions for my 2014 reading list.

A lot depends upon whether you plan to tour with others, or alone.
If it's important to you to bring back pictures that will please you into your old age, and capture the flavour and essence of the location, try to travel alone.
If the trip is primarily to enjoy the company of the local population, your personal comfort and mobility suggests travelling light: a TLR with a wide (50-65mm) lens, loaded with HP5 or TX;
Touring on bicycle or motorcycle, by bus or train : MF/TLR with 50, 80 and 180mm, or (NOT and) 35mm SLR or RF with 24, 50 and 135mm.
Travelling by car: 4X5 with 90, 150 and 360 TP, in addition to the above.
Another personal favourite, maybe as a replacement for a wide-angle lens, is a HorizonT wide-angle camera. Surprisingly efficient, but an acquired taste.
