Manchester traffic stop nets another drug charge for passenger
July 03. 2013 1:56PM
MANCHESTER — A traffic stop Tuesday night resulted in a narcotic possession charge for one of the passengers, who is under indictment for drug sales.
Police said an officer on patrol in the area of Young Street saw a vehicle traveling south on Hall Street at what appeared to be a high rate of speed.
Officer Derek Cataldo got his cruiser behind the vehicle and pulled it over in the area of 275 Cilley Road. Cataldo said the driver and three passengers appeared nervous and he asked the driver, Nathan Lapage, 29, of 712 Montgomery St., to step out of the vehicle.
Cataldo said Lapage gave permission for the vehicle to be searched. A female passenger, Tara Zebrowski. 26, of 87 Harrison St., gave Cataldo permission to search her pink pocketbook on the floor by her seat.
In it, police said, were five hypodermic needles, four of them empty and the fifth containing a brown liquid suspected to be heroin.
Zebrowski was charged with felony possession of a narcotic and scheduled for arraignment Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division.
Lapage was charged with operating a motor vehicle after suspension and released on $300 personal recognizance bail.
Zebrowski could enter no plea to the felony drug charge in Circuit Court Wednesday morning, so a probable cause hearing was set for July 15.
Police prosecutor Richard Brown sought to maintain the $2,000 cash/surety bail set for Zebrowski, saying some amount of cash bail is appropriate.
Brown said Zebrowski has been indicted by a Hillsborough County Grand Jury on four counts of sale of a narcotic from last fall and has waived a probable cause hearing on two more drug charges.
This arrest is an indication, he said: "(Zebrowski) didn't get the message about the dangerousness of drugs."

Animal Research Facilities: Missouri
This page lists Mississippi research facilities regulated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The annual reports and inspection reports for these facilities can be viewed by clicking the links listed below each facility's name. More information about how these research facilities are regulated can be found here. View the interactive U.S. map of animal research facilities here.
The facilities listed on this page are those subject to the provisions of the Animal Welfare Act, a federal law that pertains to the care, handling, and use of animals in research.
The Animal Welfare Act requires facilities that conduct biomedical research and testing on animals to register with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and submit a report to the agency annually. Registered facilities are inspected by the USDA at least once annually, with the exception of federal facilities, which are not inspected by the USDA.
The Animal Welfare Act applies only to research facilities that use certain animal species. This includes all mammals and birds except laboratory-bred mice, rats, and birds. Also excluded are reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates. Excluded animals account for the vast majority of animals used in US-based research.
The Animal Welfare Act does not apply to facilities that conduct research solely on non-covered animals. Consequently, these facilities are not required to submit annual reports to the USDA nor are they inspected by the USDA. Only facilities that conduct research on covered mammals and birds are regulated by the Act, are required to submit annual reports, and are subject to inspection. These are the facilities listed on this page.
* This is the most recent inspection report for this facility as of winter 2012 / 2013.

TV and Furniture Tip-Overs Safety for Babies
TV and Furniture Tip-Overs Safety for Babies
Every 45 minutes, or less than the length of a Sesame Street episode, a child visits the ER because of a TV tipping over. It's something most parents don't even think about. But securing your TV and furniture is an important part of baby-proofing your home. Here's all you need to know to get started.
Top Safety Tips
- Assess the stability of the TVs in your home.
- Mount flat-screen TVs to the wall to prevent them from toppling off stands. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that you have a secure fit.
- If you have a large, heavy, old-style cathode ray tube (CRT) TV, place it on a low, stable piece of furniture.
- Use brackets, braces or wall straps to secure unstable or top-heavy furniture to the wall.
- Install stops on dresser drawers to prevent them from being pulled all the way out. Multiple open drawers can cause the weight to shift, making it easier for a dresser to fall.
- Keep heavier items on lower shelves or in lower drawers.
- Avoid placing remote controls, food, toys or other items in places where babies might be tempted to climb up or reach for them.

Im watching Barack Obama on TV and hes still out there in campaign mode, or is it really community organizer mode? Stir up the people and get things no one can afford. This is what our president did for a living before jumping into politics. In fact, in Chicago he helped 186 people get mortgages they didnt qualify for nor was there even a belief they could pay for them. Only 19 still have those homes. That makes Obama a part of the problem, so why on earth would you listen to him on anything?
The reason hes out there with the people instead of negotiating with Congress is he hasnt a clue what the economy is about and certainly doesnt understand spending requires restraint. In other words, you elected an uneducated community organizer.
His idea of not going over the fiscal cliff is $1.6 trillion in new taxes and $50 billion in new stimulus. Translation of the last one is his donors need their payback for helping get him back in office. More of the ideas are $400 billion taken from Medicare didnt they just steal 716 billion from that fund and the last one is he wants unlimited power to borrow money and raise the debt ceiling at his whim without interference.
Congratulations, people who voted for him. He thinks hes president of Egypt.

The Oklahoma Christian University community mourns the passing of a dear friend, Bobby Roberson.
Bobby passed away on Tuesday, Sept. 25 at the age of 81. His funeral service will take place this Friday, Sept. 28 at 2 p.m. in OC's Scott Chapel.
Bobby and his wife of 21 years, OC Life Trustee Millie Prince Roberson, are longtime supporters of Oklahoma Christian. Bobby would fondly recall attending the 1958 ribbon-cutting ceremony featuring Pat Boone after the school moved from Bartlesville to Oklahoma City.
"We give to Oklahoma Christian because we have so many great friends there," Bobby once said.
Bobby participated on various OC boards and supported Oklahoma Christian in many ways, including a perpetual endowment that will provide scholarships for OC students for generations to come.
Likewise, Millie has supported Oklahoma Christian for decades. Many young engineers have taken their first steps into thermodynamics and systems design within the halls of the Prince Engineering Center, one of OC's finest academic venues. The PEC, made possible through Millie's generosity, is named in honor of Millie and her late husband, Darryll Prince.
Both Bobby and Millie lost their first spouses early in life, but found a common love for business and a passion for service.
In 2005, Oklahoma Christian presented Bobby with an honorary Doctor of Laws degree for his leadership in business and in the community.
His homegrown company, originally known as Southwest Typewriter Company, began in his one-car garage in 1956 with a $50 loan from his mother. His business grew into a multimillion-dollar conglomerate, ImageNet America, and is now run by his children and grandchildren.
A U.S. Marine and a veteran of the Korean War, Bobby was a lifelong member of the Church of Christ and served as a teacher, deacon and elder.
He is survived by Millie, two children, six grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
"Bobby was a great man. He loved his family, he loved his God, and he loved making a difference for others. He will be missed greatly," OC president John deSteiguer said.
The Roberson family requests that memorials be made to Oklahoma Christian. Online condolences may be shared at www.havenbrookfuneralhome.com.

As far as visions go, that held by the Colorado Energy Office contains little to cause objection. The agency has resolved itself, To promote sustainable economic development in Colorado through advancing the states energy market and industry to create jobs, increase energy security, lower long-term consumer costs and protect our environment admirable goals, each and all. In achieving them, though, there is also a requirement of cost accountability, especially when public dollars are at stake.
A recent audit of the energy office, which began under former Gov. Bill Ritters administration with focus on energy efficiency, wind and solar power, found that the agency could not properly account for how it spent $252 million in federal and state money. That is disconcerting and needs to be remedied in order to restore trust in the office that is committed to goals that can ultimately benefit the states economy and environment, as well as families bottom lines.
About $144 million of the money in question came from federal grants from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act the stimulus bill, for shorthand. That money, how it was spent and to what effect on the nations economy have been the subject of scrutiny since the bill passed in 2009, and it is not all that impressive to have one of Colorados showcase programs contribute to the skepticism.
The audit, conducted at the energy offices request by the Colorado Office of the Auditor, was downright scathing. The conclusion: CEO was unable to demonstrate that $252 million spent over the past six years was spent cost-effectively. What led the auditors to that point was evidence that the agency failed to keep a comprehensive annual budget and did not have adequate data for most of the programs reviewed, according to a Denver Post story about the audit. That is not to say that the programs did not do some or even much good, and the audit says as much. But keeping careful records and establishing clear benchmarks for success and cost-effectiveness is critical to running any government agency well, and it seems clear from the audit that the energy office failed to do so. The public deserves better.
The Colorado Legislature has responded to the audit with appropriate displeasure, voting on Monday to reduce the energy offices funding by $700,000 in the final quarter of this fiscal year, which will end in June. Doing so sends a strong message to the energy office as well as to taxpayers in Colorado and across the country that mismanagement of public money will not be met with more dollars with which to play fast and loose.
The best role the audit can play is as a first step in uncovering just how the energy office used its funds and to what end, as well as a starting point to cleaning up the accounting procedures the agency uses. Until both of those steps are taken, though, the Legislature is right to keep a tight rein on the funding that flows to the Colorado Energy Office. Too many questions about too much money remain unanswered.

Cutting choices: Obamacare's network shrinkage
September 23. 2013 4:29PM
It turns out that New Hampshire is not alone in having health care choices constrained by Obamacare. The New York Times reported on Sunday that insurers in many states are shrinking their provider networks because of the Affordable Care Act.
"Federal officials often say that health insurance will cost consumers less than expected under President Obama's health care law," the Times reported. "But they rarely mention one big reason: many insurers are significantly limiting the choices of doctors and hospitals available to consumers."
New Hampshire is experiencing this as Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, the sole insurer to offer coverage in the heavily regulated "exchange" established by Obamacare, has cut 10 hospitals from its provider network. The Times reported that this is happening in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas as well.
Why? To reduce costs. Here is one way that happens: "Even though insurers will be forbidden to discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions, they could subtly discourage the enrollment of sicker patients by limiting the size of their provider networks," as the Times put it.
Obamacare was based in part on the theory that the government could simply force insurers and providers to eat costs. Real life does not work that way.

Danville man guilty in crash death of Derry teenJAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
March 29. 2013 11:59AM
BRENTWOOD – A Danville man was found guilty on all charges that he caused the fatal car crash in Derry that killed 17-year-old Korey Traficante in November 2010 after his car went off Frost Road in Derry and flipped on its side.
Cameron Dearborn, 19, sobbed as the jury foreman read off the guilty verdicts on two counts of negligent homicide and a single count of driving under the influence.
Defense lawyer Kenneth Bernard asked to poll jurors after the decision so they would individually have to announce their verdict.
Judge N. William Delker revoked Dearborn's bail at the request of county prosecutors.
Assistant County Attorney Stephanie Johnson said that while free on bail, Dearborn was arrested for hosting an underage drinking party in June and was found to be in possession of marijuana.
Dearborn, who testified in his own defense on Thursday, also had friends over the night he took a friend's 1998 Saturn and crashed with Traficante as his passenger.
"He has no regard for any orders set by the court," Johnson said.
Bernard disputed the details of Dearborn's latest arrest, saying no one was home when Danville police arrived at the house.
Dearborn was convicted of three felonies, and faces up to 7 ½ to 15 years in state prison on the most serious charge.
"Can I please say goodbye? I didn't do anything," a red-faced Dearborn said while being led away by deputy sheriffs.

Joseph W. McQuaid: Keeping public in the dark isn't helping find Abigail
December 07. 2013 7:53PM
FBI and state Attorney General officials involved in the case of the missing North Conway girl ought to be called to account for what seems a sloppy, hapless, and at times self-promoting performance. The tragedy is that the lack of promptly sharing basic information with the public hasn't helped find Abigail Hernandez, may in fact have hindered the search, and has needlessly added to an entire community's anxiety.
Illustrative of the circular logic employed here was authorities' refusal to provide in advance of a Friday press conference the "substantive information" they claimed to "have developed" and that was beginning to leak out last week. To wit:
Abigail was alive at least two weeks after her Oct. 9 disappearance; she wrote a letter to her family on Oct. 22, and her mother received it on Nov. 6.
Associate AG Jane Young said that this was indeed information "we want to pass on to the public," but she refused to "pass it on" Thursday night. The FBI's response was just as lame.
"That's why you have a press conference," said Agent Kieran Ramsey.
Not exactly. In a case like this, a press conference ought to be to amplify and reiterate the known information in the hopes of getting it out to a wider audience. But that is what has been wrong with these agencies' performance in this case all along. Rather than share information, they have clammed up, allowing misinformation to stand uncorrected for days.
Incidentally, despite Agent Ramsey's boast, they didn't "develop" anything here. The girl wrote a letter, which the FBI has known about for a month and which surely didn't take a month to verify. That kind of information might have and we hope may still trigger something with someone who has seen or heard something.
But the FBI and AG still don't get it. They want people to look for strangers in their midst, but they refused to say where Abigail's letter was postmarked, neither the town, nor the state, nor even the region; and their ballyhooed press conference was abruptly ended after just 15 minutes.
We hope Abigail is okay. We pray for her safety and we applaud the efforts of volunteers like Paul Kirsch who have worked tirelessly to get out whatever information they have about the case. The authorities could learn from them.

Updated: One of Merrimack's three tolls could closeBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
March 05. 2013 9:40PM
CONCORD - Increased traffic resulting from the new Merrimack Premium Outlets mall could allow lawmakers to close one of three toll stations on the F.E. Everett Turnpike in Merrimack.
The Senate Ways and Means Committee approved a plan Tuesday to eliminate Exit 12 tolls due to increased revenues at Exit 10 from traffic going to the mall.
Originally, Senate Bill 3 — sponsored by Senate President Peter Bragdon, whose district includes Merrimack — would have closed all three tolls in Merrimack.
The elimination of the three tolls would cost the turnpike system approximately $5.5 million a year, according to information from the Department of Transportation.
"While I would have preferred to see tolls at all three exits eliminated, I believe this is a big step in providing relief to fed up Merrimack residents," Bragdon said.
Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, proposed an amendment to close Exit 12 but to retain the other ramp tolls.
He said Exit 12 produced about $660,00 in toll revenue in 2012, while Exit 10 revenue jumped from about $260,000 to $935,000 when the mall opened.
The increased toll revenue would "keep the money constant," Morse told his colleagues, and noted the tolls are expected to decrease at Exit 12 due to the opening of the Manchester Boston Regional Airport access road, which allows travelers from the south to access the airport without having to leave the turnpike.
Committee member Sen. Lou D'Allesandro, D-Manchester, noted the revenue increase at Exit 10 appeared to extremely high, but Morse said the projections were from the Department of Transportation.
"This is an ongoing battle," Morse said, noting the system lost $6 million a year when lawmakers in 2000 eliminated a toll plaza planned for Nashua, but retained the three Merrimack tolls.
D'Allesandro was concerned there may not be enough toll revenue to pay for the construction bonds for the three exits. The three exits were to be paid for by the ramp tolls.
"There's not enough information for me to make a decision," D'Allesandro said. "I recognize fairness, but we also made a lot of improvements there."
Committee member Sen. Jim Rausch, R-Derry, who heads the Senate Transportation Committee, said he never supports eliminating tolls but does in this case because it is revenue neutral.
"The real correct action would be to eliminate these three tolls and reinstate the mainline toll (Nashua) that was planned," Rausch said, and several other senators agreed.
The committee voted 3-2 for the proposal, which the Senate will vote on later this month. If the bill passes, it will then go to the Senate Finance Committee for review before a final vote.

Friday, May 18, 2012 - Wank Party 2012 #5, Part 2
Latest Sets at WilliamHiggins.com
We continue Wank Party 2012 #5 with part 2. This Wank Party features Tomek Sirnad, Daniel Malecky, Kala Kolomaz,Milos Zambo anad Lukas Pribyl. As we join the guys Daniel and Kaja are taking turns to suck on Tomek, who is sucking Lukas. Lukas for his part is wanking on Milos big dick. The guys then separate so that Lukas has his cock in Daniel's mouth, while he is being sucked by Tomek. Kaja, meanwhile, is busy sucking Ondrej. Tomek is hungry for more cock and turns and goes down on Kaja's stiff member. All those cocks are rock hard as they suck each other before moving to some fucking. Tomek sits down on Kaja's throbbing cock and rides it, sucking Lukas as the same time. Milos has his cock rammed deep in Daniels eager ass, and is fucking him nice and hard. Tomek takes time out from sucking Lukas to turn his head and kiss Daniel, before returning his attention to Lukas. Lukas moves to the other side of Tomek, allowing him to continue sucking but so that Daniel can kiss over his body too. Tomek's dick is rock hard and standing to attention as Kaja fucks him nice and deep. Milos reaches round and wanks Daniel as he fucks that hot ass. Time to change and Tomek has Kaja bent over, so he can slide his big cock deep into his ass. Lukas goes onto his knees so that Kaja can suck his hard cock, while Daniel lays on his back with a leg in the air for Milos to fuck him even deeper. They are all loving that action and change again. This time Milos is fucking Tomek, with his own hole visible as he pounds that ass. Daniel has his dick deep in Kaja's hole pounding him hard. As Kaja is fucked by Daniel Lukas bends and starts to wank his hard cock. Things are building to a frenzy and they group around Lukas. Milos shoots a nice, creamy load over him, followed by Kaja. That send Lukas over the top and he drops his load too. Milos just cant stop though and shoots another creamy load on Lukas. This sets Kaja off too and he cums again. Lukas thinks he has had enough for today and calls things to a close. What a lovely party, with 5 stunning guys.
Andrej Protasiewicz is aged 24 and lives in Prague. He is studying law and in his spare time enjoys sports, dancing and karate. Andrej does his interview in just his pants and gets straight to work at the end of it. He dips a hand into the pant and begins to play with his cock. We can see that, happily, he is not shaved and he works on that cock, getting it ready to show. As he pushes the pants down Andrej's bick cock is displayed, with its huge, shiny head. Andrej wanks on that cock as he feel his body. When he has given us a very good show of his cock Andrej turns around to let us see his ass. His hands move to the ass cheeks and pull them apart so we can see his hole. Then he bends forward so that his ass cheeks spread naturally, as he also pushes his cock between his legs. Next Andrej lays down and a helping hand arrives. The hand applies oil to Andrej's body and quickly takes hold of that big cock. As the hand wanks the cock it gets very hard and begins to throb as Andrej breathes very deeply. Suddenly the cum erupts from the cock. Andrej is very clearly turned on and couldn't hold back. The cock is milked dry and then, before he goes off to shower, Andrejs legs are lifted into the air to make sure that we get a lovely view of his hot ass again. Andrej is a great looking guy who, clearly has no problem showing himself off and getting very hard in the process. I do hope we can do more work with him very soon.
Pavel Hepnar is aged 21 and lives in Prague. He is a cook who enjoys football and sports. Pavel looks very good as he starts his shoot. Soon he has removed his shirt and we see a nice slim build. Then, as he drops his jeans, we see that Pavel has a nice full bush above a lovely, flaccid cock. The cock nestles beautifully on those big balls. Pavel then turns to show his ass too. He bends and spreads his cheeks to give a view of his hole before he removes the jeans and continues to show that ass. Pavel then turns to face the camera again, with that cock in full view. He gets it hard for us in quick time and then sits on the sofa to really show it off. Lifting his legs he shows the ass as well, spreading the cheeks so we get a wonderful view of his tight hole. Pavel finishes off with some more great shots of his hard cock. A very nice shoot indeed.
Jan Mikulec is aged 24 and lives in Trinec. He is currently unemployed and enjoys, sports, fitness and ice-hockey. Jan is a lovely looking guy who stands, after his interview, and begins to feels his body. As he does so he smiles, mischevously, and then removes his tee-shirt to show us a very nice chest. Jan then opens his jeans and slides a hand inside to feel his cock. It's not log until Jan pushes his jeans down and we see a very nice cock and those beautifully bulging thighs. He takes hold of his cock and begins to wank it, as he rubs his chest. That cock gets rock hard in no time at all, and points straight towards us. A helping hand arrives and, using some oil, begins to massage Jan's chest and shoulders. Then the hands move down the body and soon has a hold on that cock before cupping the balls. Jan is then turned around and the hands work over his back and his ass. That ass looks wonderful, such a perfect shape, as the hand rubs over it. The hands continue to feel all over Jan's body and when he sits down his cock is standing proud, ready for wanking. One hand takes hold of it and begins to wank. Leaving Jan alone for a moment see him wanking himself and then the helping hand reappears, with a dildo poking out of his jeans. Jan begins to suck on the dildo, demonstrating his skill, as he wanks himself. Next it is time to see more of that sexy ass. Jan gets onto his knees, with his cheeks spread nicely, showing his hole. The hands run over it and also play with that hot cock. Jan sits again and lifts his legs in the air, so we see his hole again, as his cock is wanked. A vibrator appears and slides into that tight hole. At the same time the hand wanks Jan's cock and very quickly, with the vibrator in his ass, Jan explosed, squirting a great big cumshot all over the place. After a very good show jan goes to the shower for a well deserved shower.

The dust hasn't quite settled in New York after the Yankees were swept out of the playoffs by the Detroit Tigers.
One media outlet is suggesting that the Yankees make a deal with the Phillies, trading Curtis Granderson, a power hitting center fielder who would fill a need for the Phillies, for Darin Ruf, the reigning double-A MVP.
Granderson has a $13M option for 2013, making him affordable for the Phillies, while Ruf is a 26-year-old career minor-leaguer with no real position on the Phillies. In winter ball, Ruf is hitting .276 with four home runs in eight games.
Here is what John Harper of the New York Daily News wrote over the weekend:
It's not that Granderson can't cut down on his strikeouts and get back to being something closer to the player that finished fourth in the 2011 MVP voting. It's just that I don't believe the Yankees are going to commit to a long-term, highly-expensive deal to keep him after 2013, so the time is right to trade him.
Granderson makes a lot of sense for the Phillies, who desperately need power, as well as a center fielder, and they're still very much in a win-now mode, trying to cash in before their high-priced starting rotation gets too old.
At age 26, Ruf is not really a phenom, having developed his power gradually after being a 20th-round pick out of Creighton. The Phillies are converting him from first base to the outfield, and scouts believe he can play a serviceable left field.
His bat could be valuable to the Yankees in a part-time role in 2013, if he proves ready, and eventually he could become a mainstay in the lineup.
The Phillies might be reluctant to deal one of their few highly-touted prospects, but some scouts, pointing to his high strikeout total (102 K's in Double-A) aren't sold that Ruf will be able to put up big numbers against major league pitching. And Granderson could be a long-term answer in center for the Phillies if they're willing to commit financially.
So what do you think? Would you make the deal?

UNH plan to spend $1.5m on stadium lights draws ire
By BILL SMITH
New Hampshire Union Leader
CMC's CEO still a doctor at heart
A decision to spend up to $1.5 million to install lights at Cowell Stadium at the University of New Hampshire is being criticized as a misplaced priority on a campus with other construction and repair work needs.
State Rep. Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, said the university has more important projects, and questions whether UNH's Board of Trustees has the authority to give the Financial Affairs Committee the authority to make the allocation without confirmation by the full board.
The Financial Affairs Committee last week voted to allocate $8 million in capital funding to the state university system. Lawmakers did not specify how the funds should be spent, leaving that up to the trustees.
"The language in the law is very clear in my mind," Chandler said. "I believe the whole board is the one that has to do that."
A university spokeswoman could not confirm whether the board formally addressed the issue at its meeting Friday following the Thursday announcement from the Financial Affairs Committee. But she said spending decisions by the committee on behalf of the full 27-member board is a regular practice.
"The Financial Affairs Committee is authorized through board policy to act on behalf of the board on the issue of capital appropriations," spokeswoman Tiffany Eddy said in an emailed response to questions from the New Hampshire Sunday News.
A vocal critic of spending the state's capital funding dollars on stadium upgrades, Chandler said there are infrastructure needs on the Durham campus with a more direct impact on the institution's academic mission than ballpark lights.
The university did not specifically ask for capital funding for stadium lights or even list the work on a "wish list" of possible projects.
Funding for stadium improvements became a specific part of the Senate version of the bill, championed by Sen. Lou D'Allesandro, D-Manchester. A House-Senate conference committee stripped the stadium improvement earmark from the final version of the legislation signed by Gov. Maggie Hassan.
The capital spending bill gave UNH an $8 million lump sum for capital projects, and left spending details up to the trustees.
"The lights were never in their request to the state of New Hampshire; nowhere did the university ask for the money for those lights," Chandler said.
D'Allesandro makes no apology for inserting money for stadium work into the capital funding bill.
Referring to Cowell as "a dump," the former UNH football captain said the quality of the state university's premier athletic facility should not lag behind the rest of the institution.
"If we're going to be a first-class university, we ought to have first-class facilities," D'Allesandro said. "Manchester has lights, Concord has lights, Skowhegan has lights, Salem has lights. Almost every high school in the state has lights, and we don't have them at the state university and that's appalling."
While private donors have paid for specific improvements, such as a synthetic grass surface, a new scoreboard and renovations to make the stadium suitable for track and field events, efforts to raise money for general stadium improvements have come up short in recent years.
A drive for an entirely new stadium failed a decade ago. An attempt to use state money to leverage private donations through a matching-fund program also failed to generate significant revenue.
For Chandler, tapping taxpayer dollars for a football field simply delays work on other facilities more central to the university's mission.
"I find it amazing that with the problems and infrastructure work that need to be done, that they would make this a priority," Chandler said. "We don't even have a baseball team, and that's America's sport."
Supporters call the lights an investment that will allow broader use of the facility, bringing dollars from prime-time television games while fostering a closer connection between alumni wallets and their alma mater.
"There could very well be additional revenue opportunities that result," said Eddy, the UNH spokeswoman. "The lights will provide better support for UNH athletics, but they will also open up a valuable state asset to greater use beyond UNH itself."
High school championships in various sports and events, such as Special Olympics, are listed by supporters as expected uses for an improved Cowell.
Chandler said he will seek opinions from attorneys and others as to whether the trustees' Financial Affairs Committee has the authority to determine how UNH capital funds are spent.
"I believe the whole board is the one that has to do that. I'll raise the question and get some sort of a determination," Chandler said.
However, since the capital spending appropriation covers a two-year period, there is plenty of time for the trustees to ratify the subcommittee vote, if the lawyers think it necessary.
D'Allesandro called the 125-year tradition of intercollegiate football in Durham an important part of the college experience that deserves a more fitting venue than a 77-year-old relic of the Depression-era Works Progress Administration.
"It was a dump then, and we haven't spent the time and money to make it what a first-class university deserves," he said. "We should have a decent place so we can attract good competition, and when they come, they recognize the fact that this is a decent place to play."
Lights are the only stadium work to be funded with the capital improvement dollars. Seating repairs and other work are not included.
If there is money left over after the lights are turned on, the excess funds will be spent on other projects on the capital funding list.
"If the lights cost more than anticipated, then UNH will have to find other ways to fund the remainder," Eddy said.
Installation of lights is part of a conceptual master plan for upgrading the stadium, she said.
But Chandler suggests that if an upgraded stadium is what UNH administrators think is important, then they should have come out and asked for it.
"To me it's a credibility issue," he said." alma mater

What should the initial requirements be for XSL Tools 1.0 release. Note that not all ideas will necessarily make it into the first release. Please use this page to make your suggestions as well as enter an enhancement request in the Web Tools Incubator component. If you do make a bug/enhancment request, please put the bug number here and link to it as well.
XSL Tool Features Requests
- bug 213855 - XSLT shouldn't rely on JDT to function, particularly for XSL Launching configurations as every XSL transformer extension could have a differen requirement to launch. Potentially the XSL transformer could be non-java based.
- Launching should be able to run either a simple pipeline or a more complex pipeline using XProc as the configuration language. An yac is an example of an xproc processor.
- Possibly have pre-existing Launch configurations that can be modified for Docbook, Dita, and Schematron launching.
- Allow for the launching of externally defined XSLT processors. This should be user configurable. This would be an alternative to the ones provided by providers through extension points.
- DS this is already done
- bug 214235 - Ability to view the Nodes that are in a result set/node set.
- DC - 2008-01-03 - Currently all variables whether they are strings or nodes, all display the same in the variables view. Need to allow Node Expansion of Node result sets, and display strings as variables.
- DC - 2008-01-03 - Also should be able to view the current node that a template is acting on either in the variables view or as a seperate view.
- Ability to put break points in both the source xslt as well as the xml input file.
- Ability to put break points in any stylesheet that is included or imported, and have it stop at the break point.
- DS 2008-01-06 - you can put breakpoints on any included stylesheet
- See all variables that are currently in scope for the xslt being debugged.
- 2008-01-03 - Basic functionality implemented.
- bug 213850 Ability to set the XML Input before Debugging begins, if launched from Debug As-> and no existing launch configuration has been created.
- DS 2008-01-09 - Done
- DC 2008-01-12 - Assigned bug 213850 for verification and tagged for M1.
- DS 2008-01-09 - Done
- bug 213766 Make sure line and column numbers are displaying in the xml editor when in debug mode.
- DC 2008-01-03 - Tested with current branch. This is working correctly. Line numbers and column numbers are displaying.
- bug 214236 A view to see what the current Result Document would look like, and what it looks like at the end of a transformation.
- If transforming to HTML or XHTML, allow preview of the currently debugging result in a Browser view.
- DS - 2008-01-06 - At the end of the transformation, an editor is opened on the result document. Could flush file buffer if hit a breakpoint half way through and this should show the current result document in the editor itself.
- Ability to step between Java and XSL in the debugging process. This is useful for tools like Dita-OT that use both Java and XSLT in their build process.
- DS 2008-01-09 - It is now possible to add breakpoints in called Java code, but the transition between XSLT and Java stepping is not done yet.
- bug 195028, bug 213852, bug 213854 - Content Assitance for all XSL elements that are in the namespace. It would also be nice to have content assistance automatically for any other namespaces that are known.
- Some of this is already possible through the use of XML Catalog contributions, as the XML Editor will pickup any grammars that it finds and knows about in the XML Catalog that are in the source document.
- bug 201954 - XPath creation, editing, and testing support.
- bug 213775 - Configurable syntax highlighting for XSL. Allow differentiation between XSL elements and those not part of the XSL transformation namespace.
- XPath support should have content assistances for select, match, and test attributes. This should provide AXIS as well as XPath function expressioin support. Along with any appropriate documentation for each of the functions.
- Templates - we should provide a list of commonly used XSL templates both for new files and for attributes and elements.
- Variable content assistance - When referencing a variable or parameter, we should provide content assistance for any variables or parameters that are in scope.
- If a variable or paramater is unknown, CTRL-1 should provide available suggestions.
- Make sure any compilation errors are highlighted with red squiggleys. Color of squiggleys should change depending on the severity of the error. Yellow for warning, red for error.
- Provide template support for Call-Templates. If creating/defining/calling a named template, content assistance should be availble for the name attribute, providing a list of suggested names either have no template defined, or already have a template defined depending on the location where content assist was invoked.
- Validation should not necessarily occur on all grammars in the XSLT, as this could lead to false errors, as XSLT templates will be inserted into elements that may not be expecting them. This is not an error itself.
- Provide a view with the availability of all XPath functions or nodes that could be used at that particular point. Drag and Drop support would be nice to be added to the editor.
- Possibly create just a Source editor for XSLT, as the existing Design view doesn't necessarily work well for XSLT development. Or create a new design view that allows graphical creation of an XSLT based on existing grammars or an existing XML instance.
- Provide out of the box support for XSL templates for DITA, DocBook, and SchemaTron.
- Include optional project creation for DocBook and DITA Eclipse Help System documentation. The Eclipse Help System option should create a plug-in.
- Include optional project creation for Eclipse Corner Articles. The Eclipse Corner Articles should create a project that builds HTML pages from DocBook or DITA source. It would be nice for this option to be extensible by adopters so other publications like DeveloperWorks, which already supports XML + XSLT for authoring, can make use of the new project creation wizard.
- Provide basic refactoring support.
- Content Assistance for stylesheets that are include or imported. The parent stylesheet should be able to see variables, call-templates, with-params, etc from these imported and included stylesheets.
- The ability to specify what should be validated and what shouldn't be validated.
- Batch Validation of XSLTs in a directory.
- How are XSLT's validated that may depend on external URI sources?
- context sensitive help (info pops)
- task-oriented help information (available from help browser)
- Articles or on-line tutorials on getting-started and how-to-use.
- Document some use-case scenarios that could be used (by others) for brief smoke test.
Release Engineering
- Automate build and download pages.
- Add automatic JUnit tests.
- Use Xalan bundle (e.g. from Orbit) instead of raw jar in org.eclipse.wst.xsl.xalan.
- Externalize Strings (I recommend we "get started" with making a pass on basics, then try and "keep up" when ever coded is added or modified).

JoDee Powers, coordinator for Livewell Montezuma, stopped by the Montezuma-Cortez School District Re-1 board meeting this week to deliver some exciting news. The district will get a school meal assessment from Livewell Colorado experts, probably in September, to see how more fresh foods can be integrated into the lunch program.
"This is something we pursued on behalf of the district, mainly because it complements the different programs already in place," Powers said.
In terms of size, the selection of Cortez represents a shift. The previous eight assessments have taken place mostly in larger, urban districts because Livewell Colorado wants to reach as many students as possible. Re-1 is the first rural district with a student population of under 5,000 to be chosen.
Livewell Montezuma had been requesting an assessment for some time.
"I guess they finally heard the clarion call," Powers told the board.
The school district, and wider Cortez community, have already made strides infusing healthy, local food over the last few years. Cooking Matters is a six-week class that teaches all ages - but mostly teenagers - about food preparation and nutrition. The Farm-to-School program brings local fruit, vegetables and beef into the cafeterias. Montezuma School to Farm works in the opposite direction, taking students on field trips to farms and ranches; it also has helped to nurture budding school gardens in Mancos and Dolores.
Talks are ongoing for a garden at Cortez Middle School. Powers said adolescents are the age group most receptive to changing dietary habits.
"The older they get, the harder they fall," she said, referring to the difficulty of giving up processed food later in life. "With the (younger ones), by the second year they want to make their own kale pesto and kale chips!"
These prior initiatives worked in the district's favor, Powers added, because Livewell Colorado saw that Cortez was latching on to the local food movement.
She credited Re-1 food service director Sandi Vanhoutean for her enthusiasm and previous reform efforts. Too often, she said, school districts are stuck in the ways of the past and hampered by constraints of the industrial food system, where cost and convenience are prized at the expense of freshness.
"We've been sold this whole notion about how frozen food is convenient and (financially) necessary. It's true, heating up frozen food does cut labor costs," Powers said. "But now we're seeing the price we pay on the health side."
For her part, Vanhoutean didn't know too many details about the assessment, but was ready to get started.
"It's the unknown, but it's exciting," she said.
Changes won't happen overnight. After the Livewell consultants tour the cafeterias this fall and condense their findings into a report, they'll collaborate with Vanhoutean and her staff over a year and a half period to hash out what the district's goals are. Then, they'll help write a grant proposal to the Colorado Health Foundation for up to $400,000 to make those goals happen.
"Nobody is waving a magic wand. It'll take work and time. This is a two-year process by the time all is said and done," Powers said.

Arkansas State head baseball coach Tommy Raffo announced Thursday the signing of four student-athletes during the early signing period who will join the Red Wolves baseball team for the 2014 season.
JD Rainwater, Coulton Lee, Bryan Ayers and Joseph Schrimpf, have signed National Letters of Intent to come to Arkansas State. All four players are high school seniors and three are from the state of Arkansas.
"I would like to commend the efforts of assistant coaches Anthony Everman and Tighe Dickinson for a great early signing period for ASU Baseball," Raffo said. "They have spent a lot of time on the road identifying and evaluating the right student-athletes for ASU Baseball.
"We had three goals in mind going into the early signing recruiting process," continued Raffo. "First, we wanted to find young men that show a passion, toughness and a 'want' to play for ASU Baseball. Second, we wanted to continue to create a balance for future Red Wolves teams. Third, each young man we recruit must be able to compete for championships and win in the Sun Belt quickly. We feel that these young men give us a great recruiting base for the 2014 team."
Rainwater comes to ASU from Jonesboro High School where he was selected to the 6A-East first team all-conference squad and the 6A all-state team. The 6-1 infielder and pitcher was also selected to the state of Arkansas 6A all-state tournament team and was recognized as the Northeast Arkansas Player of the Year for 2012 in high school baseball by The Sun.
"We are very excited that JD has decided to continue his baseball career at ASU," said Raffo. "He is a strong power left-handed hitter that can play either corner infield position. He is coached by former ASU baseball alumni and current Jonesboro High School coach Mark Dobson and joins former Red Wolves Murray Watts, Cody Pace, Jacob Lee, CodyPowell, Hunter Smith, Derrick Coleman and current Red Wolves player Moe Malugen who were coached by Dobson and went to play at ASU."
Lee comes to A-State from Benton High School where he was a 2011 6A-South all-conference selection, participated in the Xtra Innings Classic and was named the Heartland Classic MVP-pitcher. The 6-1 pitcher also earned all-conference honors in 2012 and was selected to the 6A all-state team.
"Coulton has been a standout-starting pitcher for coach Mark Ballisteri throughout his career at Benton High School," Arkansas State pitching Tighe Dickinson said. "He possesses three quality pitches that he throws for strikes. Coulton has great character, a strong work ethic and has improved every time I've seen him pitch over the last two years. He has the tools to make an immediate impact at ASU."
A standout at Vilonia High School, Ayers is a 6-4 pitcher who has compiled stellar numbers in his first two season of high school baseball. As a sophomore Ayers hit .391 with six RBIs and also struck out 10 in 6 2/3 innings of work on the mound. As a junior he hit .396 with 20 RBI and two homeruns, while compiling 67 strikeouts in 38 2/3 innings. He also finished the year with a 1.45 earned run average.
"Bryan has a great presence on the mound and has a strong arm," Dickinson said. "He has a very good fastball and breaking ball and is very athletic for his size. He has tremendous deception with the three-fourths arm slot he throws from. We are excited for Bryan to contribute early in his career at ASU."
Schrimpf attended Christian Brothers College High School in St. Louis, Mo., where hit .315 with a .421 on base percentage and recorded eight doubles and one home run. The 5-10 infielder and catcher was a second team all-conference selection his junior year and was selected as the Missouri State Freshman of Year.
"Joe Schrimpf is a great addition to the Red Wolves baseball program," Raffo said. "He showed an early desire to play at ASU and comes from a strong high school program in St. Louis. He also played for former ASU baseball alumni and MLB pitcher Matt Whiteside's summer program the St. Louis Gamers. Joe can play multiple positions in the infield at second base or third base and is a switch hitter that uses the whole field with gap power. We really like the way Joe plays the game hard with intensity."
The early signing period for the class of 2013 runs from Nov. 14-21.

Lawyers: At least four other women have complaints about New London chief
By DAN SEUFERT
Union Leader Correspondent
Parents of chief's accuser praise her
— Lawyers representing a Colby-Sawyer College student who accused former Police Chief David Seastrand of asking her to pose nude in exchange for dropping charges against her said Associate Attorney General Jane Young has asked them to refer any new complaints they receive about Seastrand to her office.
Concord attorney Charles Douglas, who represents the woman, Janelle Westfall, 18, of Alexandria, with attorney Rick Lehmann, said at least four more women have contacted his office with complaints against Seastrand.
Douglas said Young's letter was dated Monday.
"At least four more women have called," Douglas said on Wednesday. "Our policy is to take the call, get the essential information and refer them to the Attorney General's Office. We are not independently conducting an investigation."
His office will honor Young's request, he said, and wait to see if there will be any criminal charges against Seastrand.
The four women, and Westfall, are all seeking justice, Douglas said.
"Obviously we will not move forward on any of the new cases until the state has had an opportunity to meet with the women and properly investigate," Douglas said.
Seastrand resigned last week as part of a negotiated agreement with the Attorney General's Office after an investigation into his actions on March 6, the day that Westfall alleges he asked her to pose nude for photos in exchange for having her charges dropped.
Westfall was arrested for underage alcohol possession and giving a false name to police, according to her lawyer.
She claims Seastrand called her a few days after her arraignment and made the request.
Lehmann released photos and a news release Tuesday night identifying his client as Westfall, because a media outlet he did not name had identified her.
Young wouldn't say if she sent the letter to Lehmann seeking complaint referrals, and would only say that "several" additional women have called her office to complain about Seastrand.
Young said the disposition reached with Seastrand was that he would not be charged with a crime as long as he resigned immediately and agreed to never work in law enforcement again.
The crime that would have likely fit such circumstances is official oppression, which is a misdemeanor, Young said.
Her office also took into consideration the fact that the "claimant had provided a false name and there were no witnesses to the alleged conduct" when deciding against filing criminal charges against Seastrand.
"Sometimes people lose sight of the fact that you can bring charges based on probable cause, but we have to prove the elements beyond a reasonable doubt," Young said.
Douglas called it "outrageous" that the Attorney General's Office would characterize it as a "he said, she said" situation in not prosecuting a crime on Westfall's complaint. It is not infrequent that there are no witnesses to serious crimes, Douglas said.
"She was not doing this to further a modeling career," or for money, Douglas said. "She is a college student who was upset at the request by a law enforcement officer that was highly inappropriate."
Lehmann's news release Tuesday said: "Ms. Westfall asks that the media respect her privacy as she goes about her daily life. It was a difficult and courageous act for this brave 18-year-old to come forward and report the police chief's conduct to the Attorney General's Office."
Lehmann expressed anger that his client had been identified.
"The same Constitution that protects our right to be free from improper police conduct also protects the right of the media to publish public information. This is as it should be. However, that does not make it appropriate for the media to disrupt the day-to-day life of an 18-year-old college student," Lehmann said.
Lehmann asked that the photos he supplied be used in future news media stories.
"In order to satisfy the anticipated desire of the media to publish a visual image of Ms. Westfall, I have attached two photographs that accurately depict her appearance. It is our hope that these photographs will obviate the need for photographers to seek her out."
Lehmann said he will be speaking for his client, who will file a civil suit against Seastrand, he said.
"Finally, Ms. Westfall would like to thank her family, friends, and the Colby-Sawyer College community for supporting her during this difficult time," he said.

Carol-Shea Porter: It will take compromise and courage to solve sequester impasseCAROL SHEA-PORTER
February 28. 2013 9:00PM
On Tuesday, I went to the floor of the House of Representatives to say we should do more than just one simple vote a day (Tuesday's only real vote was to develop an academic competition, Monday's was to rename a flight facility), and that we really needed to work on the biggest issue - a sequester compromise.
Suddenly, Republican Speaker John Boehner walked in, repeated his comments about how the House had already passed two bills last Congress to avert the sequester, blamed the Democrats for holding out for a compromise bill, and departed.
While I was there to talk about a compromise to avoid the sequester, the Speaker, the only one who actually can make that happen in the House, basically told anyone watching CSPAN that he had already done his part, that he was finished.
So goes a typical day in Washington. A few insults are hurled at the Senate and around the House, and everyone goes home, a day's work left undone. No debate on jobs. No debate on fair and careful deficit reduction. No legislative solutions offered, none voted upon. And when the sequester hits if Congress does not compromise, we will see the consequences - jobs lost in New Hampshire and across America, many Americans finding it even harder to get by.
Remember the "jobs, jobs, jobs" campaign chant? I can't even hear a whisper of the word now in the House, because everyone is yelling so loudly about the sequester. Is there a path to a solution here? I do believe there is, but it will call for compromise and courage.
Both parties agree the debt is too large. We may not agree on what spending was necessary, but we all agree that going forward, we need to reduce the debt. Since Congress already passed a first round of cuts, amounting to $1.5 trillion in discretionary cuts (which caused the economy to contract last quarter), we should now compromise and limit and slow down a second round, so we can absorb it. We should scrutinize and reduce spending where appropriate, but do it gradually, so we do not shock the economy, increase joblessness, and slow down our recovery. The sequester will cut $85 billion this year, and $1.2 trillion over 10 years. That is too severe for a fragile economy.
The sequester will hurt both defense and domestic programs. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office says the sequester will reduce economic growth in 2013 by one-third. These cuts will make us lose about a million jobs, force federal workers to take furloughs and lose 20 percent of their pay, and hack services that range from Meals on Wheels to school aid, from work at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard to work in the National Guard. Hospitals will suffer, nonprofits will struggle, and small and large businesses will feel the pain also, when people are laid off and cannot spend. Everyone will feel the pain eventually because the sequester calls for the axe to fall evenly across the federal government, half the cuts coming from defense and half coming from domestic programs. The only group that is happy about this is the group that largely caused this, the tea party. As the Washington Post reported on Tuesday, "Although Democratic and Republican leaders are pointing fingers, the tea party and its allies are happily accepting credit for the cuts."
While I believe that many members from both parties would like to work this out, Speaker Boehner and his leadership team control the House. They alone decide what bills will be put on the floor for a vote. To date, they have refused to allow votes on any plans to avert the sequester. They wouldn't even change the schedule so Congress can at least be in session today, the day the sequester hits. We cannot compromise if we aren't there, and we can't vote on a compromise if no compromise bills are brought to the floor for a debate and a vote.
Most Americans want Congress to work together. They want us to reduce costs and find revenue by stopping unnecessary subsidies. They want us to get the job done, but most members of Congress can only do what they are doing - sit, wait, and wonder why we can't have those debates and those votes. Debates and votes require courage and compromise. Maybe that's why we aren't having any, but Americans have a right to demand it.
Carol Shea-Porter represents the 1st District of New Hampshire in the U. S. House.

Weare mulled replacing police department with private security companyBy NANCY BEAN FOSTER
Union Leader Correspondent
October 04. 2013 11:42PM
WEARE — A study to look at privatizing the police department has been shelved as town officials wait for background checks to be completed before naming a new police chief.
Thomas Clow, selectmen chairman, said the town entered into an agreement with Greystone International — a subsidiary of Blackwater Security Consultants — to study the possibility of having the private security firm replace the police department.
The $9,348 study, which was to be conducted by two consultants from Greystone, would have analyzed the department's operations and developed a plan for restructuring the department through the private security company, according to unsealed minutes of the Sept. 9 selectmen's meeting. Board member Keith Lacasse brought the idea forward at the meeting, and selectmen John Lawton and James Leary voted with Lacasse in favor of hiring Greystone. Vice-chairman Richard Butt and Clow voted against the proposal.
According to Robert Tanenholt of Greystone International, the company has never run a police department in the United States, but said that privatized police departments are on the horizon.
"It's something that's starting to raise its head in towns and cities," said Tenenholt.
Budgets, unions, and other issues are behind the interest in privatizing departments, Tanenholt said, but "we've never done this before."
In Weare, it was frustration over ongoing controversy at the police department that made Lacasse consider privatization. Though he couldn't be reached for comment, he offered a public statement at the board meeting on Sept. 23 that spelled out his discontent.
"I have become increasingly frustrated about how time and time again our hands seem to be tied, and the deck seems to be stacked in the favor of officers, even when they misbehave," Lacasse said in the statement. "I would love to share the details of just a sampling of some of the matters we have had to discuss in non-public session, but they are in fact non-public."
Lacasse said he sought out the help of other companies in the country that run private police departments for municipalities, but couldn't find an organization interested in expanding to New Hampshire. Greystone offered to take the challenge on, he said, and the town's attorney said that such a move was legal.
Clow said that although he shared Lacasse's concerns about the way things had been handled by the police department in the past, he was not ready to hand over the reins to a private company.
"I thought it was a terrible idea," said Clow. "There's more to policing than just having a security force in place. It's something I was very much against."
Clow said he went on the company's website and saw three men in fatigues with rifles, an image that didn't fit with Weare's small town ethic. He also said the contract was entered into without the board ever receiving a presentation from Greystone or its representatives.
"We got the information on Friday and voted on it on Monday," said Clow. "We never got a presentation to get a better idea of who we were dealing with."
Lacasse reversed his position at the board meeting on Sept. 23, after interviewing three candidates for police chief. The town has been conducting a search to replace Chief Gregory Begin, who retired in May, and is nearing a decision.
"It would be unfair to lead on the good people we are interviewing for a job, while at the same time pursuing a completely different direction for police services, which could result in eliminating that very job we're hiring them to fill," said Lacasse, before recommending that the board terminate its agreement with Greystone.
Clow said that Municipal Resources Inc., which has been helping to manage the department since Begin left and conducted the search, is in the process of completing background checks before the new chief can be named. Clow said it could be a couple of weeks, but hopefully less, before the chief is introduced to the town.
In the meantime, a fatal police shooting in town on Aug. 14 that left a suspected heroin dealer dead continues to be investigated by the N.H. Attorney General's Office. The names of the officers involved with the death have yet to be made public.

Neosho City Council members discussed safety concerns at a Neosho landmark in their Tuesday evening council meeting.
Neosho City Council members discussed safety concerns at a Neosho landmark in their Tuesday evening council meeting.
Richard Davidson, Neosho mayor, said he had received a complaint recently about brick falling from the McGinty building onto the nearby sidewalk.
Davidson said the complaint is not the first.
"It's an ongoing issue," Davidson said.
The McGinty building is located on the southwest corner of the Neosho Square.
John Harringon, the city's code enforcement officer, said he contacted the building owner after the roof caved in.
"At that point, they had sent over a crew and cleaned up the mess in there," Harrington said. "I went back about a week or so after they had cleaned up the mess where the back part of that building had caved in at and told them that we need to do something as far as getting a roof put on."
Harrington said the absence of the roof on the building could lead to numerous other problems.
"At that point, they said they've gotten in contact with a roofing company and there should be something done in the next few weeks, that's what I was told by their office," Harrington said.
Harrington said local businessman Larry Neff owns the building.
The building housed McGinty's Department Store for several years, and now sits vacant.
Davidson said he had heard complaints that the building is in disrepair and was asked if the city had enforcement power to address the issue.
"With all the efforts that have been made and money that has been spent to keep our square nice, having that building on the corner there deteriorating is not pleasant," Davidson said.
"Without that roof, doesn't that compromise the integrity of the walls?" asked city manager Troy Royer.
Harrington said he would have to look to determine that, though the roof could be what is holding the walls together. He said he would look into it.
Charles Collinsworth, city councilman, said the building has needed repairs for too long.
"You're talking leaks and then that could become a fire hazard and then that's not being very neighborly," Collinsworth said. "I don't know what kind of shape the building is in but I wouldn't feel good about walking up from Charley's Grill right beside it."
Steve Hays, Neosho city attorney, said if it is determined that the building is dangerous, the city would have the right to take immediate action, which could go as far as asking the owner to remove the building, or the city doing so.
"There's a lot of history with that store, it's a great Neosho landmark and I think it deserves better," Collinsworth said. "I wish it wouldn't have fallen into this state of disrepair."
Davidson said in light of the recent complaints received about the building, the next step is to verify if there are any new safety issues with the structure.
Council members also voted Tuesday evening on final reading to approve changes to the golf course budget to allow the Neosho Municipal Golf Course to be moved from a contractor to city-run operation.
Current golf-course manager Justin Beck gave his notice in mid-November and plans to leave the course at the end of February.
The newly adopted golf course budget reflects a total decrease of $29,700.18. The amended budget includes a decrease of $128,333.34 for the remainder of Beck's $220,000 annual contract, as well as the addition of $54,400 for salaries for three full-time golf course employees, $75,000 for 10 part-time employees, $400 for cell phone allowance, $9,899.10 for social security, $5,004.80 for retirement, $9,150 for health insurance, $4,179.62 for workers compensation, and a $4,495 transfer from the general fund.

Autopsy shows Rochester man shot by officers 3 times
March 14. 2014 9:42PM
CONCORD — The Attorney General's Office Friday said Ben Shannon, 35, the man fatally shot Monday by officers trying to execute a warrant at Shannon's Rochester residence, sustained three gunshot wounds to the arms and torso.
Shannon was shot when three probation/parole officers from the Department of Corrections and a Strafford County Sheriff's deputy arrived to arrest Shannon at 28 Periwinkle Drive in the Sak's Mobile Home Park.
The autopsy was done by the Maine Medical Examiner's office because Shannon was taken to Maine Medical Center after he was shot and he died in Maine.
Assistant Attorney General Benjamin J. Agati said the cause of death is listed as homicide, which is a medical conclusion that a cause of death was inflicted by another person and is not a legal conclusion that a crime has occurred.
Agati also sought to clarify any confusion regarding the involvement of the Rochester Police Department. Agati said the Rochester Police responded to a report of shots fired. He said they were not present when the attempt to serve the warrant or when the shooting occurred, but arrived afterward.
Shannon had been arrested Feb. 17 for the robbery of a Rochester convenience store. Agati declined to say what the warrant was for, saying the investigation is continuing.
The AG's office is conducting the investigation because it is an officer-involved shooting. The AG's office is not identifying the officers involved.

University of Vermont
2012-2013 Catalogue
RSENR Degree Requirements
Students must be matriculated in the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources and in residence at the University of Vermont during the period in which they earn 30 of the last 45 credits applied toward the degree. Students must earn a cumulative grade-point average of 2.00 or above. Students must complete a program of study which includes:
- RSENR core curriculum
- RSENR general education courses, including the University Approved Diversity requirements
- RSENR major requirements
RSENR Core Curriculum
The school's core curriculum provides a common experience for all students. The innovative eight-course sequence creates an integrated foundation upon which the individual majors in the school are constructed. Core courses focus on the underlying fundamentals from which natural resources disciplines have evolved and the application of these fundamentals to problems or issues in the natural world and society. The core courses also promote development of thinking, communications, problem solving, and analytical skills. Faculty from all undergraduate programs teach in the core. The RSENR core curriculum represents a body of knowledge, skills, and values that the faculty believe are central to the study of natural resources and the environment.
|NR 001, Natural History and Field Ecology
|NR 002, Nature and Culture
|NR 006, Race and Culture in Natural Resources
|NR 103, Ecology, Ecosystems and Environment
|NR 104, Social Processes and the Environment
|NR 205, Ecosystem Management: Integrating Science, Society, and Policy
|NR 206, Environmental Problem Solving and Impact Assessment
|NR 207, Power, Privilege, and Environment
NR 001 and NR 002 provide an introduction to the study of natural resources and the environment from natural and social science standpoints, respectively. At the completion of these courses, students should (1) have a basic understanding of the school's integrated approach to natural resources and the environment, (2) be better prepared to make informed decisions about their academic majors, and (3) be prepared to advance to an intermediate level of study in natural resources. The intermediate courses in the sequence, NR 103 and NR 104, emphasize ecosystems and social systems, respectively. NR 205 and NR 206 focus directly on integrated and holistic management. In NR 205, students integrate natural and social science to understand environmental management principles and policies. In NR 206, the capstone course taken during their senior year, students are challenged to synthesize and apply the interdisciplinary knowledge, skills, and values they have learned to contemporary natural resources and environmental issues. NR 006 and NR 207 explore how social justice and environmental issues are intertwined, and help students become culturally competent in an increasingly diverse world.
General Education Courses
RSENR general education requirements are designed to enhance a student's ability to assimilate and analyze information, think and communicate clearly, and respect multiple perspectives. These requirements are flexible in order to encourage creativity in meeting educational goals. All students must complete each of the following general education requirements*:
- Writing - one course from ENGS 001, ENGS 050, or ENGS 053.
- Speaking - one course from SPCH 011, CALS 183, or NR 021.
- Race and Culture - NR 006, NR 207 and one additional course from the list of University Approved Diversity courses (totaling at least six credits).
- Mathematics - MATH 009 or higher (but not MATH 017). Individual majors may specify a higher math requirement.
- Statistics - one course from - NR 140, STAT 111, STAT 141, or STAT 211. Individual majors may be more restrictive.
- Self-designed General Education Sequence - Each student defines a personal learning objective and selects at least nine credits from departments outside RSENR to meet that objective. This sequence of courses must be approved in advance**.
* With the exception of the third Race and Culture course chosen from the approved list of University Approved Diversity courses, no single course may be used to satisfy more than one of the above requirements.
** Before completion of four semesters or 60 credits; time-frame may be extended for transfer students.
