Maurice Sendak
New York
United States of America
United States of America
Illustrator and writer Maurice Sendak was born in Brooklyn, New York, on June 10, 1928. As a boy, Sendak and his older brother used to write stories. They then illustrated them and bound them into little books.
Sendak went to art school for a short time. But he mainly learned about his profession on his own. As a teen he spent many hours sketching neighborhood children as they played. These children were represented in A Hole Is to Dig (1952), a book by Ruth Kraus that brought Sendak his first fame.
Sendak's ability to remember the sounds and feelings of particular childhood moments were demonstrated in his best-known work, Where the Wild Things Are (1963). He won the 1964 Caldecott Medal for this book. He later wrote and illustrated two companion books: In the Night Kitchen (1970) and Outside Over There (1981). The latter received a 1982 American Book Award. Sendak has said the three works are about "how children manage to get through childhood...how they defeat boredom, worries and fear, and find joy."
Sendak has illustrated some ninety children's books. In 1970, he won the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal for the body of his illustrated work. He was the first American to receive this highest honor in children's book publishing. In 1996, U.S. president Bill Clinton presented Sendak with the National Medal of Arts. In recent years, the artist has designed sets and costumes for the ballet and for a number of grand operas in the United States and England.

Vehicle Description
2017 Lamborghini Centenario – The new Lamborghini Centenario represents a new, extremely precious piece in Lamborghini's one-off strategy. It is a perfect example of the innovative design and the engineering skills of the bull-branded manufacturer.
The best tribute to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Mr. Ferruccio Lamborghini, a man who managed to create a world-class brand, and who always believed that nothing is impossible, thus producing legendary and extraordinary vehicles that made history for super sports cars.
The Centenario is an homage to this visionary man and to the future he believed so much in.
Here are the technical characteristics of the Lamborghini Centenario: equipped with a 770 CV aspirated V12 engine springing from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds, the newly-born Lamborghini car has been produced in a limited edition, for a total of 40 models: 20 Coupés and 20 Roadsters were delivered to Lamborghini collectors and fans starting in 2017.
The Centenario has been conceived with the purpose of exploring new technological and design opportunities, to look at the future through the lens of innovation. One of the most exclusive (and sought-after) cars in the whole world.

Printed with our ever popular, unisex bird print, it's elasticated to fit mattresses of various thicknesses for a snug and secure fit.
Delicately softer and safer
The cotbed sheets we make for you are from the finest certified organic cotton muslin. This isn't just because of the green credentials but also because it's a premium quality, more durable and gentler on your baby's tender skin when you lay them down to sleep.
Organic cotton is grown free from any nasty chemicals (such as fertilisers or pesticides). Because of this it retains more of it's natural wax which makes it much smoother and softer than a non-organic.

Cotton muslin has been trusted for generations to comfort and care for babies. The breathable nature of muslin helps keep your babys temperature regular all year round - neither too hot or too cold. In the summer months they stay cool, in the winter months they stay warm.
The light open weave structure of muslin has also been known to reduce the risk of SIDS.

Our cot bed sheets are made from a little thicker weave than most, which makes them more absorbent. They also wash easily and dry quickly.

U.S. Department of State NWCCI Program
The Northwest Community College Initiative (NWCCI) is part of the Community College Initiative program sponsored by the US Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
Edmonds College initiated the NWCCI program and partners with two other Washington State Community Colleges – Whatcom Community College in Bellingham and Pierce College in Lakewood, to administer the program.
NWCCI's goal is to strengthen other societies by developing capable young professionals who graduate from the program having acquired professional skills, leadership abilities, and an understanding of American society, democracy and culture. To achieve these objectives participants are enrolled in an academic certificate program and a cultural learning program designed to introduce them to aspects of the cultures of the United States and to provide opportunities to share their culture with the college and local communities. Program activities include visits to local businesses, government agencies and tourist sites, workshops on aspects of US culture, volunteer projects, internships at local businesses, and interaction with a "friendship family" who includes students in family events and activities.
The 2015-16 academic year is the seventh year of the NWCCI program. Edmonds, Whatcom, and Pierce community colleges together have hosted 320 students from Bangladesh, Brazil, Cameroon, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cote D'Ivoire, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Pakistan, Panama, South Africa and Turkey.
Participants are chosen in their countries and come to the United States for ten months of professional training and cultural activities. U.S. Embassies manage the recruitment, selection and nomination of candidates. Interested persons should contact the Public Affairs section of their local U.S. Embassy for up-to-date information about the Community College Initiative Program.
We are always looking for new ways to promote culture sharing between our students and local communities. If you are interested in learning more about the NWCCI program, hosting a student internship at your organization, participating in the friendship family program, or having a student visit your organization or classroom to speak about his or her culture, please contact Amanda Fletcher at email@example.com.

AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France--European Central Bank executive board member Benoit Coeure says the bank's current monetary policy of interest rates close to zero for a long period increases the risk of asset price bubbles.
Mr. Coeure said the International Bank of Settlements is right to point at the risk that cheap money may generate exuberant rises in some asset prices in the euro zone posing a systemic crisis risk when eventually bursting.
The International Bank of Settlements added to its warnings a call for interest-rate hikes though Mr. Coeure said the ECB wouldn't answer any asset price bubble with higher rates.
"We are totally aware of this risk. We will have to deal with it and we are ready to deal with it with the other tools we have at our disposal," Mr. Coeure said during a lecture in Aix-en-Provence where he attended the annual Rencontres Economiques business conference.
Mr. Coeure's comments echo what ECB's chairman Mario Draghi said earlier this week that the best way to deal with financial instability should be in the priority use of new macroprudential tools and not monetary policy, such as changes in banking regulations, tightening the lending standards that commercial banks use, for instance.
Mr. Coeure added the ECB's commitment to keep its benchmark interest rate close to zero for a long period will eventually likely lead to a divergence with monetary policies in the U.S. and in the U.K.

Early Music Festival
To Aug. 10 | Various locations
Info: earlymusic.bc.ca
A few weeks ago a media release reminded us that although the activities of MusicFest Vancouver were suspended for 2013, those of the Vancouver Early Music Festival would proceed as usual.
A modicum of confusion might have been understandable, since Early Music Vancouver's long-running festival/summer program enjoyed strong and affectionate connections with the ailing MusicFest. Rest assured: EMV has a plethora of events, lectures, classes, and workshops lined up, plus eight impressive concert events.
What is quaintly called "early music" — these days more a philosophy of historically informed performance than a time-specific repertoire — boasts a disproportionately high profile in Vancouver. A fiercely committed core audience has over the decades amassed considerable sophistication. I've always argued against the dismissive notion that "early music" plays to just this special-interest demographic.
Given the reduced diet of summer music events, could this be the year for music fans who don't normally sample EMV's summer embarrassment of riches to give early rep a listen?
Certainly there is a lot to choose from.
This summer's festival has already launched, offering a selection of songs with Scottish texts last Sunday and a cross-cultural program of lute music on Tuesday. A further "LuteFest 2" program of music by Sylvius Leopold Weiss — a contemporary of J.S. Bach and the last super-great lute composer — and baroque guitar music is on tap tonight, sponsored by the Lute Society of America. Performers Charles Weaver and Robert Barto are known entities at the festival, and have significant local followings.
Tomorrow there's a program devoted to the first and perhaps greatest of English song composers, John Dowland, Beyond the Labyrinth: In Search of John Dowland — a title that pays direct homage to Sting's 2006 release Songs from the Labyrinth.
VIEW MORE PHOTOS HERE, or if you're using a mobile app, tap the story image and swipe.
If, as EMV asserts, "a popular image has emerged of Dowland as an alienated singer/songwriter, a sort of Bob Dylan of the Shakespearean era," this program by the singers of Montreal's Les Voix Baroques intends to dig deeper into Dowland's considerable art.
Getting audiences for music of the baroque era is easier with every passing year. On Sunday, the festival offers The Legacy of the baroque, a program of concertos and chamber music featuring a cadre of performers also active in the teaching side of EMV's musical summer.
Then on Wednesday it's the 2013 Festival's blockbuster event, Handel's Israel in Egypt.
As retiring EMV artistic director José Verstappen has often pointed out, Vancouver is in an enviable position to mount big baroque works. Well, they don't come any more extravagant than this English oratorio, dating from the 1730s, using texts drawn from the Book of Exodus and the Psalms. Israel in Egypt is less well-known than The Messiah but every bit as important, and has a rather more overtly theatrical storyline (think about all those plagues).
The Unknown Carmina Burana, on Aug. 9, brings back one of the very greatest of medieval performance groups, Benjamin Bagby's Sequentia, based these days in Paris. I know that the idea of music from the so-called "Dark Ages" might seem esoteric, but once you've been to a Sequentia program, you realize two things: these guys are amazing, and their flair for putting together programs is spectacular. I never know quite what I'm going to encounter with Sequentia, but I know to expect great things. (So will other Sequentia groupies, and since this program is in the intimate Barnett Hall at UBC, it's wise to arrive early.)
According to EMV, Carl Orff's Nazi-era choral hit Carmina Burana was based on ancient texts "which are moralistic, satiric, erotic. But what did the original, medieval music (which neither Orff nor anyone else in his day had ever heard) sound like?" Sequentia intends to demonstrate, over the course of an evening of the greatest hits of 1230.
The Festival winds up August 10 with a saga of great art in difficult times, A Rose in the Desert: A Musical Reflection of Germany's 30 Years War. Many of the stars from Israel in Egypt grace the stage for a sort of encore performance, joined by Montreal's La Rose de Vents period brass players.
All concerts (except Israel in Egypt) start at 8 p.m. in UBC School of Music's Barnett Recital Hall; EMV's new artistic director Matthew White will on hand at 7:15 to do pre-concert chats.
Israel in Egypt is at the Chan Centre, with no pre-concert chat; the music begins at 7:30 p.m.
Early Music Extra:
As befits a blockbuster, the assembly of performing talent for this production of Israel in Egypt is a knockout. Soprano Suzie LeBlanc, alto Reginald L. Mobley, tenor Colin Balzer and baritone Tyler Duncan headline a remarkable compliment of nine top soloists. They're joined by authentic instrument performers from the Pacific baroque Orchestra, all under the direction of Alexander Weimann. A special double choir put together for this one-time-only occasion features a hand-picked complement of singers drawn from around the Pacific Northwest.

SPSS Statistics is loaded with powerful analytic techniques and time-saving capabilities to help you quickly and easily find new insights in your data.
Here's a look at the newest features and enhancements designed to help you:
Discover causal relationships in time series data
Uncover hidden causal relationships among large numbers of time series using the Temporal Causal Modeling (TCM) technique. SPSS Statistics enables you to feed many time series into TCM to find out which series are causally related, and can automatically determine the best predictors for each target series.
Integrate, explore and model location and time data
SPSS Statistics includes geospatial analytics capabilities to help you explore the relationship between data elements that are tied to a geographic location.
Choose from a wider range of R programming options
Develop and test R programs using a full-featured, integrated R development environment within SPSS Statistics. You can also write R functions that use SPSS Statistics functionality with command syntax from within R, and return results to R.
Enhance categorical analysis outcomes
Use a wider range of categorical principal component analysis (CATPCA) capabilities, including:
Create next generation web output
SPSS Statistics web reports have been completely redesigned, with more interactivity and functionality and web server support.
Bulk load data for faster performance
SPSS Statistics writes the data to a text data file, and then the bulk loader script writes the text data back to the database, providing superior performance when handling large datasets.
In addition, SPSS Statistics:
What's new in version 23?
Geospatial Association Rules
Using geospatial association rules, you can find patterns in data based on both the spatial and non-spatial properties. For example, you might identify patterns in crime data by location and demographic attributes. From these patterns, you can build rules that predict where certain types of crimes are likely to occur.
This procedure is available in the Base Statistics option.
Spatial Temporal Prediction
Spatial temporal prediction uses data that contains location data, input fields for prediction (predictors), a time field, and a target field. Each location has numerous rows in the data that represents the values of each predictor at each time interval at each location.
Temporal Causal Models
Temporal causal modeling attempts to discover key causal relationships in time series data. In temporal causal modeling, you specify a set of target series and a set of candidate inputs to those targets. The procedure then builds an autoregressive time series model for each target and includes only those inputs that have a causal relationship with the target. This approach differs from traditional time series modeling where you must explicitly specify the predictors for a target series. Since temporal causal modeling typically involves building models for multiple related time series, the result is referred to as a model system.
Temporal causal modeling procedures are available in the Forecasting option.
Bulk Loading to a database
When you export data to a database, bulk loading submits data to the database in batches instead of one record at a time. This action can make the operation much faster, particularly for large data files.

The Canadian TV landscape is set to be radically rearranged yet again in the coming months if Bell Canada's proposed deal to take over rival broadcaster Astral Media is given regulatory approval
That decision from the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is expected within a couple of months.
If the CRTC greenlights the $3.4 billion acquisition, it will continue a trend toward greater consolidation that's been going on for the past few years in Canada.
There are just four major broadcast players: Bell, Shaw Communications, Rogers Communications and Quebecor.
This consolidation accelerated in recent years thanks to a number of major deals, notably CTV taking over Chum in 2007, then selling off the Chum-owned City-tv stations to Rogers.
Meanwhile Shaw — one of the country's largest cable operators — snared the CanWest Global TV properties in 2010 for $2 billion.
Quebecor dominates the French-speaking Canadian TV market via the top-rated TVA network and a slew of cable channels.
The result is that there are fewer buyers from Canada for American programming, but at least all four remaining players have deep pockets. All are also distributors, involved in cable, telecom and the Internet.
The problem in Canada remains that homegrown shows have little traction. In a recent week, only four of the top 20 series were Canadian and three of those were CTV news shows.
It's the exact opposite in Quebec, where local French-language shows dominate the ratings.
STRENGTHS: TV networks owned by large, financially solid companies.
WEAKNESSES: English-Canadian shows still having trouble finding audiences.
SHOWCASE SHOW: "Flashpoint." The top-rated cop series just started its fifth and final season on CTV.

We have, it seems, memories that cast a rosy glow over our pasts. Times were always simpler, pursuits more pure. Or were they?
You know, the times when men where men and the women damn glad of it! The great times when you all went to school, everyone was constantly respectful and well-behaved and cared only about learning. Yeah, right! The great times somewhere in the past when politicians really listened and worked for us. The time when there weren't all the problems with drugs and crime. Could we all stop eating from our bowls of Dreamos and focus on exactly when was this Golden Age?
Was it in the early 1900's when capitalism was not at all controlled, child labor was common, six percent of the society graduated from high school, kids used to picket to have the right to attend school, railroad workers would lose an arm on the job and receive five dollars and their walking papers, monopolies controlled most of the economy and life expectancy was in the mid-fifties? No, it couldn't have been then.
The fact is there was no perfect time to which we should aspire to return. Some things get better over time. Some get worse. Progressive and regressive forces battle it out on an ongoing basis.
Of course, that doesn't politicians from using our faulty memories for their own interests. In particular, Republican candidates for president have invoked the myth of moral decay, telling us that world must be going to Hell because we are being less godly. As The Economist's Democracy in America blog noted this week, this is every bit as much a myth.
When considering America's moral decline, my first instinct was to look at the crime rate. If Satan is at work in America, he's probably nicking wallets and assaulting old ladies. But over the past several decades the crime rate has fallen dramatically, despite what you may think. The homicide rate has been cut in half since 1991; violent crime and property crime are also way down. Even those pesky kids are committing less crime. There are some caveats to these statistics, as my colleague points out, but I think we can conclude that crime is not the cause of America's moral decline.
So let's look elsewhere. Abortion has returned as a hot-button issue, perhaps it is eating away at our moral fiber. Hmm, the abortion rate declined by 8% between 2000 and 2008. Increases in divorce and infidelity could be considered indicators of our moral decay. There's just one problem: according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the divorce rate is the lowest it has been since the early 1970s. This is in part due to the recession, but infidelity is down too.
Other areas that might indicate declining virtue are also going against the perceived trend. For example, charitable giving is up after a decline during the recession. The teenage pregnancy rate is at its lowest level in 40 years. And according to Education Week, "the nation's graduation rate stands at 72 percent, the highest level of high school completion in more than two decades." So where is the evidence of this moral decline?
As they point out, increasing secularism is one of the "problems" pointed to, as are out-of-wedlock birthrates. They point out that the second begs the question of whether the issue is a moral one at all. With good social support, the children of unmarried parents don't have to do any worse than the children of married parents. So what's immoral about it?
The same goes for higher rates of secularism. It's considered a problem why?
If the answer is that increasing secularism leads to…any other moral problem or any other problem that is measurable in this lifetime, it's really time to stop making that argument.

The selloff in Bank of America and Citigroup may just be the beginning. Analysts now are predicting that the same problems hitting those two big banks will soon spread to the entire industry.
"There's certainly going to be more bank failures in 2009 as the economic backdrop continues to deteriorate and the smaller banks start to feel the pain," said Christopher Mustascio, managing director at Stifel Nicolaus. "Now you've got a full-fledged recession...Some of these banks are not going to be able to deal with that, and you're going to see failures."
Bank of America plunged to 18-year lows on Thursday, while Citigroup tumbled below $4 as investors worried about the financial health of both banking giants.
While JPMorgan Chase reported earnings Thursday that actually were better than Wall Street's diminished expectations, there was little other solace for an industry that seems headed for a year that could be even worse than 2008.
"If you look at the banking sector as a whole just in terms of price action in the group and what the market might be saying, I think one would have to conclude that there's more trouble that lies ahead," said Todd Salamone, analyst at Schaeffer's Investment Research in Cincinnati.
For Investors
Bank of America's problems stepped to the forefront of the messas the company said it would need still more government bailout money from the Troubled Asset Relief Program, as it appears to have overpaid when it took over Merrill Lynch and all its toxic paper last year.
While some analysts were taking a wait-and-see approach on BofA's problems, investors dumped the stock in droves, with a stunning 200 million shares changing hands just in the first hour or so of trading.
"I'd really like to see what the facts are. We're dealing with a whole lot of shadows," said Anton Schutz, portfolio manager for the Burnham Financial Services Fund. "If there's TARP money, how much is it? If it's guaranteed, how much is it? The stock's getting destroyed, but the stock was getting destroyed before this news came out."
Schutz's funds include Bank of America, JPMorgan and Citi, and he said he's keeping the stocks with the notion that the worst of the news is coming to an end.
"The real question is, do these companies' valuations reflect the risk that's there?" he said. "I'm thinking we're a whole lot closer to reflecting the risk because many of them are trading well below book value."
Banks Will Fail--By the Hundreds
Whether the risk truly is reflected adequately remains to be seen as earnings season kicks into full fear.
JPMorgan reported Thursday, while Citi posts what are expected to be dismal numbers--as much as a $10 billion loss--Friday. Bank of America reports Tuesday.
The $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program, which banks can access to bolster their capital positions, will help ease some of the damage as will Federal Reserve moves to ease monetary policy. The liquidity moves of 2008 have lagging effects that should take root in the coming months.
But banks will fail, and at numbers large enough to cause alarm.
"I do think some of the actions taken by both the Fed and Treasury will limit the failure, especially at the larger banks, that we have seen in the late '80s or early '90s," Mustascio said. "But to think we're not going to see more failures in 2009 is probably naive."
The US saw 25 banks fail in 2008 and the number is expected to multiply this year into the hundreds.
While banks have been allowed relatively liberal access to the TARP funds, some are still burdened by huge losses suffered in the collapse of the subprime mortgage market as well as credit issues fed by consumer weakness during the recession.
In the case of Citigroup , its behemoth supermarket banking model became undone and the company was forced to sell its Smith Barney brokerage unitto Morgan Stanley .
At the same time, HSBC stumbled after analysts called into question its capital position.
Same Problems, Only Worse
In essence, the story of 2008 will be the story of 2009, only amplified.
That's because the mortgage contagion will spread beyond simply the subprime group and start to hit prime borrowers as well who cannot meet their obligations due to rising unemployment and the intensifying recession.
"Stabilizing the banks through direct capital injections was a good first step but before things can be really stabilized the government's going to have to find a way to take the toxic assets off the books of the banks," said Mike Carlson, a partner with Faegre & Benson's restructuring group in Minneapolis. "Until that happens, things are not going to be able to move very quickly."
As a result of the continued troubles, banks will have a hard time convincing investors that their institutions are stable, which will lead to weak share prices and diminished market capitalization.
Banks with an already weak position then will see their foundations crumble as the financial storm winds blow with more ferocity. Institutions with untenable business models, such as the one-stop-shop supermarkets, will find it difficult to survive.

"Now we're seeing where banks have been very woeful pulling off effective integrations of these cultures," said Brian Hamburger, managing director of MarketCounsel, a regulatory compliance and business consulting firm in Englewood, N.J. "They've been performing poorly, with executing the cross-sell and cost-containment that they tout in every one of those business combinations seeming to fall well short. It's just not reality."
With fears that short-sellers again could swoop in on some of the weaker names in financials, investment pros are counseling clients either to stay away from most names in the space or at least hedge any plays by using inverse exchange-traded funds that pay when bank indexes move lower.
CNBC.com Slideshows:
Schaeffer's Salamone is avoiding the headline-makers like Citi and Bank of America, and when it is buying banks it's also taking puts on the Financial Select Sector SPDR, a play that anticipates a move lower in the ETF.
"On the one hand there's a lot of negativity and there is an appeal to that. But there's only an appeal when the price action is not justifying that negativity," Salamone said. "This is more a sector you avoid. If you do dip your toes into certain banks, you do it in a very cautious manner by hedging."
In the meantime, big banks and small banks alike will get hit as investors avoid risk and and the shakeout in the industry continues.
"You always have a pendulum swinging too far one way and too far the other way. Over the course of time it swung too far to the side of the financial supermarket and now it's swinging back the other way," Carlson said. "Ultimately I think you're going to see risk again, but I don't think it will be for a decade or more."

Browser Market Share in November
Browser Market Share in December
Mobile browsing continued to display strong growth and now accounts for 1.3% of all browsing. Both Windows and Mac devices lost market share, while all major mobile operating systems gained. This indicates a general tendency to browser more from mobile devices, irrespective of the platform. Android was the biggest gainer in December with 54.8% growth. Blackberry and iPhone managed to grow by 22.2% and 20.1% respectively.

MADD: Parents key to stopping underage drinking
Young people who get a strong message from their parents that any underage drinking is totally unacceptable are far less likely to drink before they're 21 than kids who don't get such a clear message, MADD says.
That's from a MADD online survey last September of 663 high school students, which found that teens who receive a message from their parents that underage drinking is "completely unacceptable" are more than 80% less likely to drink than teens who receive other messages.
In the survey, 8% of teens who said their parents thought it was completely unacceptable for "someone your age" to drink were active drinkers; that compares with 47% of teens who said their parents thought it was either somewhat unacceptable, somewhat acceptable or completely acceptable, MADD says.
"The message has to be that it is completely unacceptable," says Jan Withers, MADD's national president.
MADD announced the survey results Tuesday, the first day of Alcohol Awareness Month. This is also the eve of prom and graduation season, traditionally a high-risk period for young drivers.
Other research has found that teens who don't drink until age 21 are 80% less likely to abuse alcohol or become alcohol-dependent later in life than those who drink before age 15, and 70% less likely to drive after drinking too much when they're older than those who drink before age 14.
Each year, about 4,700 people die as a result of underage drinking, MADD says. The group and insurer Nationwide want to reduce that number by encouraging parents to talk with their children about not drinking before age 21. They will hold events around the country this month (April) leading up to April 21 – PowerTalk 21 day, when parents are urged to talk with their teens about underage drinking.
Tuesday, MADD is bringing four mothers to Washington who lost children to underage drinking.
One of them is Debbie Sausville, 60, of Clifton, Va.
On a Friday night almost 10 years ago, her stepdaughter, Lauren Sausville, 16 and newly licensed, went to hang out with friends. Around 2 a.m., Sausville looked in the driveway and saw that Lauren's car was not back. She told her husband, Peter, who said he knew, that he'd been calling her cellphone, but it was going straight to voicemail.
"You know how it is with parents in that situation," Sausville says. "First is the worry. Then comes the anger. We were saying, 'She's not going to drive again until she's 18. She's not going to drive again until she graduates.' "
At 3:15 a.m., the phone rang. "Your heart stops," Sausville says. "I could only hear my husband's end of the conversation. He was saying, 'Yes. Yes. Yeah. No, but we've been calling her cellphone.' Then he sat straight up in bed and looked at me and said, 'Oh, Jesus. She's dead.' "
Lauren, unbeknownst to her parents, had had a 27-year-old friend buy her two 12-packs of beer and gone to a party at the home of a friend whose parents were away. She drank heavily – beer and vodka – before she and her friends decided to drive to another party. She was killed when she swerved in her 1999 Ford Explorer, hit an embankment, flipped onto the driver's side and skidded. Tests later showed her blood-alcohol content was .13, well above the legal limit of .08, Sausville says.
The buyer of the beer, Landon Cousins of Clifton, left the area after the crash. He was arrested more than two years later and pleaded guilty to buying alcohol for an underage person and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, all misdemeanors.
"Parents need to make sure they know some of the kids your child is hanging out with," Sausville says. "They need to know if there's going to be a parent present if they're going to be hanging out at another kid's home."
