UED6072, New December 1980
Missouri CourthousesContact and other information about this county is available on the National Association of Counties website, http://explorer.naco.org/.
During the 19th century Newton County had four courthouses. In December 1840 the court ordered the first, a hewn-log building, 18 by 20 feet, with wooden chimney, one door and one window. The clerk recorded a complete description of the building in the County Court minutes. Cost was between $150 and $300.
The second courthouse built in the center of the square came in 1847, when the court appropriated $3,000. A succession of men acted as superintendent; John Plummer was the builder. The structure was reported as a two-story brick building with cupola. The court accepted the building during October 1849. It was destroyed in Civil War activity. Neosho citizens landscaped the square, planted trees, and treated the square as a park.
In May 1867 the court purchased the lot north of the courthouse square. J. C. Herms built a two-story, frame house, 22 by 80 feet. Costs are uncertain. Reports have varied between $2,500 and $4,600. This courthouse continued in use until 1878 when the fourth courthouse was completed on the square. For the fourth courthouse St. Louis architect C. B. Clarke was paid $360 for producing plans and specifications for the elaborate design (Figure 1). E. W. Bray contracted for building in May 1877. The state had compensated Newton County $2,000 for loss of the courthouse during the war; Neosho residents contributed $6,000, and the court appropriated $10,000. The grounds were fenced in 1887, and landscaping, with walks and a fountain, was added later in the century. During the 20th century, portions of the tower were removed (Figure 2), but the building continued in use until it was razed in December 1935 as construction began on the present courthouse.

Newton County chose St. Louis architect Neal C. Davis to design the fifth courthouse, funded by the Work Projects Administration. Other plans came from firms in Kansas City and Joplin, but the committee favored Davis, who originally came from Newton County. The court approved his plan in October 1935. The courthouse contract was let for $162,687, and the jail contract for $11,150. The jail was on top of the building.
Construction began in April 1936. A memorial tablet replaced the traditional cornerstone, which was no longer a construction component, and ceremonies took place July 30, 1936. U.S. Senator Harry Truman, Grand Steward of the Grand Lodge of Missouri, was the speaker.
Built of Carthage stone, the building consisted of four stories; basement, first floor for general offices, second floor for the Circuit Court room, and top floor for the jail (Figures 3 and 4). The building measured about 112 by 90 feet. Appropriate inscriptions were carved in the frieze, and the court accepted the building in February 1937. M. W. Woodward was landscape architect.

2011 Japan Earthquake & Tsunami
On March 11, 2011, a 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit Japan, causing a massive tsunami that washed away entire communities along the northeast coast.
The extent of the devastation was enormous. Compounding concerns about children's safety is the ongoing struggle to contain radiation exposure from a damaged nuclear reactor.
Japan has long been a valuable contributor to UNICEF's relief efforts on behalf of children worldwide. The Japan Committee for UNICEF has raised funds for UNICEF's lifesaving work around the world since 1955. Following the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster, UNICEF launched a successful fundraising campaign to help the children who were affected.
The Japan Committee for UNICEF remains involved in relief efforts, providing:
- Recreation kits, underwear and school supplies to children;
- Safe drinking water for Fuskushima and Miyagi prefectures;
- Distribution of emergency non-food items; and
- Back-to-School kits to local governments and other partners.
Learn more about UNICEF's work in other emergencies.
Children and families rely on UNICEF after natural disasters and during conflicts. Help UNICEF protect them.

Winners and Losers From the Week That Was
Winners & Losers for the week that was in business and deals, Deal Journal's weekly look back and grading system of some of the biggest stories. Follow us on Twitter @WSJDealJournal.
Winner — RIM Short Sellers — Shares of Research in Motion stock as well as short interest has jumped in recent weeks as the company geared up for Blackberry 10 launch. RIM revealed the phone this week, and shares fell 26%. Depending on when they got in, the 26% of shares outstanding that are shorted are probably feeling pretty good now.
Winner — Richard Handler — The CEO of Jefferies led his bank back from the brink last year, putting to doubt concerns about its stability and then sold it to a conglomerate that he'll run. Jefferies made a $323 million profit for 2012 and Handler earned $45.2 million in compensation. Lloyd Blankfein's reign as the king of pay lasted only a week.
Winner — Hess shareholders — It remains too early to call whether Elliott Management or Hess Corp. will triumph in a fight over the future of the $20 billion energy company. Elliott is urging splitting the company in three, while Hess says it is already transforming itself, but will listen to suggestions. Shares rose 16% this week.

NASCAR at Night: Bullz-Eye's time at the Bank of America 500
When you think of NASCAR, you think of a few key images. First, there must be loud, fast, heavily stickered cars careening around an oval. Secondly, the race will probably take place somewhere in the south. And finally, there must be enough flowing Budweiser and blaring country music twang to annoy Toby Keith. Yes, these are stereotypes, but no one ever mentions just how much fun a NASCAR event is because of it. Bullz-Eye went to the Bank of America 500 in Charlotte as a guest of Valvoline to witness this circus in person.
NASCAR races, like horror movies, are better at night. The reason is the same, drama. The noises seem louder, the speed seems more intense, and the crowds become more restless with anticipation. And really it is the fans that make these events what they are. Their blind devotion to single drivers makes the most ardent sports team fan blush. Depending on their favorite driver's success in the rest, certain sections of the track may be in utter despair and crazed happiness at the same time.
The venue is also crucial. Charlotte can be described as one of the cradles of NASCAR. This southern city not only contains the track, but the Roush Racing Team as well. With its southern charm, fantastic barbeque, and good times vibe, the city is the embodiment of NASCAR's attitude.

Back to School Film Campaign Introduction
We are greatly involved in the issues of girl child education in Africa. Concerned with the persistence of gender preference, early marriage and child trafficking, we have initiated a Video Advocacy Campaign to address these issues and to push for the accomplishment of UN Millennium Development Goals across Africa. Our back to school film Campaign is made up of youths from different countries, pursuing a common goal. We wish every girl child in Africa could have a compulsory primary education.
Please join our vision for a brighter future for our female children, and join the world in observing the First International Day of the Girl Child

Concerning the Times-News editorial regarding Congress and the U,S. Postal Service, the writer needs to get the facts right before voicing any further opinion. To begin with, to say that Congress �should back off and allow the Postal Service to introduce sensible efficiencies� is laughable when you consider that Congress�s 2006 prefunding mandate is responsible for the majority of the Postal Service deficit. In the first quarter of the 2013 fiscal year, were it not for the prefunding requirement, the Postal Service would have shown a $100 million profit. If Congress had �backed off� in 2006 when writing the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, the USPS would not be in its current financial situation.
The writer is making a further assumption when he states that �the advent of email and the emergence of private delivery companies have deprived the Postal Service of revenue.� According to a USPS report for the first fiscal quarter of 2013, revenue from its parcel business increased 4.7 percent. This is due in part to the �last mile� delivery agreement between the USPS and private companies UPS and FedEx.
Although the Postmaster General has stated that eliminating Saturday delivery would save the company $2 billion per year, this amount is questionable. In a broader study conducted for the USPS in August of 2011, when considering all the cuts the Postal Service is implementing, it was estimated that mail volume would be reduced by 7.7 percent annually and cause losses of $5.3 billion, essentially doing more harm than good.
While the average individual may or may not have an opinion regarding Saturday mail delivery, the business customers are just the opposite. According to the Postal Service�s own market research, one third of American businesses oppose eliminating Saturday delivery. If you consider that business mailers account for 90% of the total mail volume, this is data that neither the USPS nor Congress should ignore.

Cheetah Web browser is already present in the market and it grabs too much attention from public,Now the company plans to launch mobile version of its famous cheetah Browser.This is not any huge surprise that the company which develops web browser will offer a mobile version of browser,but the spy photos of this browser tells us that Browser offers us a very great tool
The photos showed that Cheetah Mobile Browser offers us to download videos from cache which we had already watched. Isn't that Great??This software really helps to save our bandwidth because when we watched any video online,the video stores to cache and then if we want to download that video with another software we will again use our bandwidth.
Cheetah Mobile browser will be available for android and iOS and the beta version of Cheetah Mobile will be released on June 3rd and we expect more new features in its full version
Now lets see whether the Chinese Cheetah Mobile Browser would also get success like its other chinese Counterparts UC Browser and QQ Browser

In the past year, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has lost over 40 member companies because of its role in crafting voter suppression laws, anti-immigration laws like Arizona's SB 1070, and other conservative causes. Still, the group continues to be popular among lawmakers in Republican-controlled states. According to a report released Monday, ALEC has even made inroads in Democratic-leaning New Jersey, where Gov. Chris Christie (R) and other New Jersey lawmakers have apparently introduced 22 bills since 2010 based on ALEC model legislation. Christie denied the connection in April, when another report found many similarities between his legislation and ALEC bills. However, records found Christie's advisers and conservative lawmakers in New Jersey consulted ALEC on key legislation, including:
The New Jersey Jobs Protection Act (S240) and a similar bill (S164), which would require all employers to verify whether their workers are legally qualified to work in the United States. The report said they were "taken nearly word for word from ALEC's Fair and Legal Employment Act, which is also incorporated in ALEC's longer and more thorough No Sanctuary Cities for Illegal Immigrants Act — the infamous model legislation that was introduced in Arizona … and led to protests across the country and a showdown at the Supreme Court."
ACR103, which would allow a two-thirds majority in the state Legislature to nullify any federal law or regulation. It's sponsored by Assemblywoman Amy Handlin (R-Monmouth) and Assemblyman Jay Webber (R-Morris), co-chairman of ALEC's state chapter. Handlin, who has said she is not an ALEC member, and Webber declined to comment.
The New Jersey Parental Rights Program Act (S504), which would create a publicly funded scholarship program for students attending certain types of private or religious schools.
None of the bills passed in the Democrat-controlled Legislature, and Christie's office continues to deny any coordination on the bills in spite of the nearly identical language. His attempts to distance himself from the group is no surprise; ALEC has become notorious since their involvement in pushing right-wing legislation was exposed earlier this year. The bad publicity led corporations including Amazon, General Electric, Coca-Cola, and Walmart to drop their financial support of the group.
ALEC is funded by Koch Industries and has proven to be a good investment for the powerful brothers. The group wrote models for many of the most radical state bills, including "Stand Your Ground" laws, SB 1070, union-busting bills, anti-minimum wage laws, voter ID requirements, and efforts to block clean energy while promoting "the benefits of atmospheric CO2 enrichment." In spite of their heavy reliance on the group, lawmakers are not required to disclose the powerful group's influence as it is technically a non-profit and refuses to comply with lobbying laws.

Mayor Bramson Discusses New Rochelle's Downtown
In the October 30 issue of the Westchester Guardian
New Rochelle City Council on October 7 approved allowing RDRXR to be a master developer for the largest project ever for the city's downtown. The railroad station and downtown areas will be transformed. This company is being viewed as a master developer which will take a comprehensive view of downtown. RD or Renaissance Downtown, and RXR Realty.LLC are combining their services to focus on real estate investment.
The next night, October 8, at the Residence Park Neighborhood Association meeting, Mayor Noam Bramson addressed the members about this proposed RDRXR development proposal. He claimed "hard choices" were necessary to attract development. In order for the city government to make the city "better," a "controversial decision" may be necessary. He urged the group to stand up and say something supportive, so the city can get to a better place. "Tough steps" in his view were necessary.
After speaking of the better days of New Rochelle, Bramson emphasized he did not want to make the city what it was. He faulted previous city leaderships for not having a sense the city was changing. If residents want better stores the prospective owners need to feel confident they can make money. Instead of lamenting about downtown New Rochelle, Bramson wants to do something about it.
Questions by members followed. Bramson said the Main and Huguenot Street area plus especially near the train station would be involved as a nucleus. Later private property might be acquired for development. An overlay zone would help "kindle the fire" for reinvestment in private property. One member of Residence Park was particularly adamant that the agreement with this new proposal should not allow any developers to go to the Industrial Development Corporation (IDA). However, Bramson while respectful of his viewpoint, answered, "We will never have any development without tax abatements." He continued, businesses need to make money, and the city is competing with New York City, Stamford and White Plains. Tax breaks are given to companies so they will relocate here. Otherwise, Bramson said, we can "resign ourselves to a downtown that is the same as it is today."
In answer to a question by another member, Bramson said to make a better city, "controversial decisions were necessary." When asked about downtown development, Bramson reinforced he did not want to make it what it was, alluding to previous city leadership, he said they did not realize the city was changing. He then added, "If you want better stores" here, prospective owners have to feel they are in an environment "where they can make money." Another member said he had an important question: would the city insist a developer could not go to the IDA (Industrial Development Agency) to lower their taxes from tax abatements. The answer by Bramson was, "We will never have development without tax abatements." He added businesses come to make money. In closing, Bramson said New Rochelle had come a long way, but still had a long way to go.
Two councilman who attended this meeting commented briefly on this proposed downtown plan. Councilman Ivar Hyden wanted to assure a bipartisan sense for this project. Councilman Al Tarantino added that he did not want to "take control of private property." Hyden brought up the increasing amount of panhandling in downtown. Tarantino alluded to previous developments in the downtown that had brought no benefits to the city.

Warren says, Clean up some flaws first!
There is some preliminary work that should be done; it is like preparing the ground before planting seed.
New Rochelle, we have some great new days ahead of us!
Warren is unable to post at this time but asked me to post his response to Peggy for him.
From Warren Gross November 3, 2014
Peggy Godfrey's Report on Mayor Bramson Discusses New Rochelle's Downtown points out long -standing flaws in Community Development in the Queen City. It perpetuates the myth that the faults we face reside other than with our current elected officials. Noam indicts past leadership as being responsible for the fading glory of our beloved City. Sad, very sad, what is not said is that Noam shares much of the burden of shouldering the responsibility. He has been a member of both the City Council and elected Mayor; although in a fashion not granted to him, by the City Charter.
He is culpable or, at least, negligent in carrying out the mandates explicit in our City Charter. He is also the leading voice, and in some cases, the only voice for management practices that lead to mistakes such as not using the prior 1996 Comprehensive Plan. This important document should have been out forward as an on-going planning document for Council control and monitoring. Properly used it would have been a baseline record and focus for on-going Strategic and Operating Plans. We are also managed largely by fee revenue; an invasive process that too often punishes commercial interests and its clients for being in business. That is an oversimplification, but a conversation with a small business owner on Huguenot, Main, or North Avenue would bear witness to this statement.
I am here not to condemn Noam but to remind him that he bears his share of responsibility for our diminished business district. So do the other Council Members who do not insist that the mandates of the City Charter are adhered to as our rule of law. Equally chilling is not recognizing that our electorate has over the past several decades, voted against a referendum to change our Charter from its current "weak" or Ceremonial mayor over to a "strong" mayor system.
Noam must accept that the fault is not in Caesar or in the Stars. It rests with him, his party leaders, and with the rest of the sitting Council. I have supported Bramson for years. He is a brilliant young man, but his tendency is to blame others. The economy was a favorite target and now this preposterous claim indicting other administrations. This young man has been in significant leadership positions for over twenty years.
I would have no problem supporting him as a strong mayor, but he must be more honest in assigning responsibility. He might be less sophistic in his language. The late and revered Ruby Dee is not, as he indicated, and I paraphrase, larger than New Rochelle. What then of Rockwell, Remington, Gehrig? What does he mean by people standing up and saying something "supportive"?
Let me try. You will have the support of all citizens who love this community if you commit to transparency, involvement, and honesty. Your "master development" and team that you have pronounced having a nonpareil national reputation (again I paraphrase), should be adept enough to be able to separate form from substance, understand and apply state of the art techniques in Assessment and Strategic Planning and I hope that is their intent and not simply presenting a solution in search of a real problem. There is so much preliminary work that should be done; it is like preparing the ground before planting seed. These include basic enablers such as looking at what really induces commercial and yes, residential interests, to invest in our City. It begins with overhauling our Charter and Codes. We need to have non-political conversations on reassessment and not look at Certiorari in the ways that we do. Do we really understand what public and private investors look for when assessing our community? That means a formal arrangement with the School District, moving some services downtown, much more even if it is not "pretty" such as an off Main municipal vertical garage to support commercial growth or expansion.
Yes, we need to provide inducements for investors; abatements likely are needed, but their terms and oversight require strong legal support. If RDRXR cannot provide this, then we need a different team. Al Tarantino is wrong when he denies the need for taking over some private property. It may be inevitable. Ivar Hyden is correct, absolutely correct in asking for bipartisanship. Any sniff of special interests or parochial interests must be eradicated.
Noam speaks as one voice that embraces the Council. That gets you one vote, my vote. We have a nucleus of a fine Council and any primary challenge will be, itself, noted and interpreted for what it is. Just leave well enough alone, make the basic enabling changes, and there is your positive message.
Warren Gross, citizen

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star NeNe Leakes told Ellen DeGeneres that she wanted her upcoming wedding to be "over the top and very fairytale."
DeGeneres got the festivities started early, throwing "The New Normal" star (and apparently former stripper) an early bachelorette party with four strippers on Wednesday's "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." DeGeneres had asked Leakes, who is remarrying her ex-husband Gregg Leakes, if the she would be invited to the bachelorette party.
"We would love for you to be there blondie," Leakes responded.
DeGeneres obviously couldn't wait. I see some candidates for Shirtless Man of the Week. Watch the video below.

Scripture: Hosea (NIV) 1:7 Yet I will show love to Judah; and I will save them—not by bow, sword or battle, or by horses and horsemen, but I, the LORD their God will save them.
Observation: God did not need the customary means to save His people. He did not need a great army to fight a great war. In Himself, He was able to save His people!
Application: God is the same today! When I am in trouble, I have my own ideas of how God might help me. They are logical and would work quite well. But when I trust Him, I often find that He does not use any of my ideas. And I find that His ways work out so much better than mine would have done. How logical to trust one who knows so much more than I do and who loves me so much that He sent His Son to die for me—as payment for my sins!
Prayer: Lord, Your wisdom and Your love make it logical to trust You at all times, especially in times of trouble! Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

Serena Williams eases into Wimbledon 2nd round
June 24, 2014
LONDON (AP) — Five-time champion Serena Williams made light work of Anna Tatishvili, beating the fellow American 6-1, 6-2 to reach the second round at Wimbledon on Tuesday.
Williams, who lost in the second round at the French Open, hit 31 winners and had 16 aces.
The 32-year-old Williams has never lost in the first round at the All England Club, where she is making her 15th appearance.
She has won 17 major titles in her career but has not fared well in Grand Slams this year, losing in the fourth round at the Australian Open before her early exit at the French Open.
The 113th-ranked Tatishvili recently changed her nationality from Georgian to American.

KOOSKIA — Prairie's first baseball season in recent memory began with a blast March 17 against a Clearwater Valley squad guided by a new hand. CV's bench boss, Josh Bradley, has a group of 16, of whom 14 have been regulars with his Babe Ruth and little league squads for years.
A year ago, when ace Brandon Owens and the Rams stepped between powerhouse Potlatch and a state tournament berth, CV lacked a clear-cut No. 2 pitcher. With Owens unavailable, Bradley recommended Dillon Fisher to then-coach Brent Jacobs on account of Fisher's competitiveness.
"Dillon Fisher was on my first Babe Ruth team," Bradley said. "He goes 100 percent every time he plays. He just goes hard. He competes."
CV's season ended in a 7-0 loss and Owens (who also filled the gaps at catcher and shortstop) graduated. But with Fisher on a tear — he has seven hits already — and six returning sophomores and six incoming freshmen coming around, the Rams are primed to renew their insurgency in the Whitepine League.
"We played really tight against Prairie," Bradley said. "Cody Morrow pitched great. He had seven strikeouts and only allowed four or five hits in six innings. It was 5-1 when he went out, so the final score (11-1) is a bit deceiving."
"But credit Prairie," Bradley said. "Clark Bruno pitched great. It was their first game, too, and they came to play."
Clearwater Valley (2-1) bounced back with a 30-run rout of Nezperce on March 18.
For its second win of the season, CV edged Highland 6-5 last Monday night, March 24.
Behind starting pitcher Tyler Massey and reliever Cody Morrow, the Rams committed seven errors to allow Highland to come back from a 5-2 deficit.
But not all the way back.
Third baseman Kaden Carr atoned for an earlier error with a leaping effort to keep a high throw on the infield. Had it gone into the outfield, the tying run may have scored. Instead, Morrow struck out the side to strand the runner at third base.
After leading much of the game, CV stumbled into a 5-5 tie in the top of the sixth. After drawing a one-out walk, Massey stole second and advanced to third on an error off Morrow's bat. After an infield fly put William Hill at first and forced Morrow out at second, Will Weaver was hit by a pitch, loading the bases with Carr to bat.
Craigmont huddled at the mound and put on a pickoff play, which caught Massey away from third, only for Massey to ruin the plan by stealing home.
Hill (three RBIs) and Fisher had two hits apiece. As a team, CV stole 11 bases.
Prairie 11, CV 1
KOOSKIA — Prairie senior Clark Bruno shut the Rams out for five innings on March 17 — the Pirates' first game since 2011. Devin Bruegeman finished it with a shutout seventh.
Calvin Hinkelman knocked two singles for the Pirates, who piled up 11 runs on seven hits. Casey Danly and Bruno delivered extra-base hits with a double apiece.
The Rams committed nine errors behind pitchers Cody Morrow, Wyatt Martin and Tyler Massey. Morrow threw strikes until his day ended with a 5-1 deficit; Martin struggled with walks.
The Rams were scheduled to play at Kamiah after the print deadline; up next, CV has games scheduled at home March 27, 5 p.m. against Genesee and 10 a.m. at home April 5 against McCall.
Prairie 16, Kamiah 4
KAMIAH — When Kubs starter Branson Ballantyne went down with an apparent groin injury, the Kubs' chances of hanging with upstart Prairie last Thursday, March 20, also went down.
The relief pitchers inherited a 2-0 deficit which rapidly ramped up to 7-0 amid a slew of walks.
Kyl Donaldson slugged a couple of triples for Kamiah, including a two-run smash in the third inning. But with Prairie's runners continually on base ahead of batters who combined for eight hits, the Pirates ripped off a six-run fourth.
Earlier this season, Kamiah hammered Nezperce 18-8 March 13 and earned a split with a 17-7 win over reigning champion Potlatch.
Ballantyne powered the win over the Loggers with three hits and seven innings pitched.
The Kubs erupted for 15 runs during the second inning and finished the game with 17 hits.
The next day, Prairie fell to McCall 8-3 and missed out on a split when the second game was called for darkness with PHS leading 5-2. On March 22, Genesee swept Prairie 8-3, 3-2.
Up next, Prairie (2-3) will play Troy at 4 p.m. March 28 at LCSC, and will host Potlatch at 11 a.m. March 29.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22 (UPI) -- Verizon says it received more than 320,000 requests for customer information from U.S. federal, state and local law enforcement agencies in 2013.
That number was more than 100 times as many as requests from any other country, Verizon Communications said in its first surveillance transparency report.
It also dwarfed the number of requests made to large tech vendors, as Google received about 11,000 law enforcement requests in the first half of 2013, while Yahoo received about 12,000, and Apple less than 2,000 in the same time frame, PC World reported Wednesday.
Verizon received more than 164,000 subpoenas from U.S. law enforcement agencies and nearly 71,000 court orders, it said in its report.
Verizon, on its corporate blog, said it intends to update the transparency report twice a year.
"The past year saw an intense focus around the world on government demands to obtain customer data," wrote Randal Milch, Verizon's general counsel and executive vice president for public policy, law, and security, and the transparency report will "add to the ongoing conversation about privacy and public safety."

The youngest member ever inducted into the Minnesota Speaker Hall of Fame, Ross has spent the better part of the past 20 years studying the DNA of championship teams and his passion is helping motivate organizations to perform like CHAMPIONS. Ross and his books have been featured on thousands of television and radio programs including CNN, MSNBC, CBS This Morning, FOX News, Bloomberg, ESPN, and the CBC, as well as in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, USA Today, Sports Illustrated and Maxim Magazine.
Ross' signature program, "The Champion's Code: Building Relationships Through Life Lessons of Integrity and Accountability from the Sports World to the Business World," is based on more than six years of research that resulted in two critically acclaimed series of sports-business books. The first examines how and why certain teams win world championships; while the other chronicles the unwritten and unspoken rules in the world of sports, or "codes" as they are known, which explores the fine line between cheating and gamesmanship — and the consequences involved when that line is crossed.
Ross interviewed more than 1,000 professional athletes and coaches for the six books and along the way he saw some fascinating patterns, metrics and trends develop among certain individuals who possessed a very unique DNA. For these unique individuals, or "champions," it wasn't always about winning, it was about following their moral compass in order to play the game the right way — with respect and integrity — in order to achieve success. In his presentation, Ross identifies upwards of 100 unique characteristics and traits that are common among champions, which he then ties into poignant life lessons and inspirational stories that relate back to his client's event theme and desired learner outcomes.
Based largely on the "Good to Great" ideology of how the best companies are able to separate themselves from the rest of the pack through dynamic leadership, by creating a culture of excellence, and by giving extraordinary customer service, Ross' program reinforces the concept that individuals win games, but TEAMS win championships. Momentum, roles, buy-in, motivation, consistency, sacrifice, trust, chemistry, work-ethic, innovation, karma, and being humble — they're all a part of what it takes to become the best of the best — a CHAMPION both on and off the field.
So... who are the champions in your organization? Let Ross customize a program (from one hour to a full-day) for your next sales conference, corporate event, or annual meeting — his PASSION and energy is contagious. As a full-time professional motivational speaker, Ross speaks upwards of 100 dates a year globally, but he'd LOVE to be a member of YOUR team for the day!
The best-selling author of nearly 50 sports books, Ross Bernstein is a motivational business speaker who helps companies and organizations think and act more like champions. As a sought after keynote speaker, Ross uses inspirational sports stories to energize and connect his audiences — from Fortune 500 sales groups, to large association conferences — Ross is recognized internationally as a celebrity sports speaker. As a sought after sales speaker, Ross specializes in the topics of values and integrity, ethics and accountability, and passions and legacies. Ross' signature programs are "The Champion's Code," which is about the DNA of champions in sports as it relates to business; and "Do You Believe in Miracles?" which chronicles the life lessons of Herb Brooks success, the iconic coach of the fabled gold medal winning 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey team. Ross Bernstein is a Minnesota speaker but is recognized internationally as an inspirational business speaker. Give him a call, he'd LOVE to be a member of YOUR team for the day!

Day's Worst: MMJ ad ban
Denver went too far in regulating medical marijuana advertising when City Council members on Monday tentatively approved a broad ad ban.
The proposal would prohibit medical marijuana dispensaries from advertising outdoors. They still, however, could advertise in magazine and newspapers, or online. The ban is scheduled for a final vote Aug. 20.
As we said in June, we'd prefer to see the industry police itself. In lieu of that, we think targeted regulations would have done the trick.
We realize MMJ is a "different" product than most for a variety of reasons, but free speech is a valuable right that has broad protections in this country. And it should have prevailed in this instance.
It's unfortunate the council didn't see it that way.

It is probably hard to imagine Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson babysitting, or James Dimon of J.P. Morgan Chase cooking French fries.
While neither one of those men ever held those particular jobs, many of the wealthiest and most powerful CEOs in the world earned their first paychecks by delivering newspapers, mowing lawns or waiting tables. After all, everyone has to start somewhere.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...When seed crops here are cut, once green fields turn brown and the vibrant landscapes of spring and early summer nap, waiting for the drenching rains of fall to restore their verdant color. Fortunately, the late summer harvest brings a rainbow of color to the table and the vibrant hues of corn, tomatoes and peaches help brighten the monotony of the fallow landscape. Consciously or not, I'm drawn to their color and tend to overbuy produce with shades of red and gold. That, of course, means I'm always scrambling to use my purchases before they becomes fodder for the compost pile. This year, I went crazy with peaches, and despite canning and freezing quantities of them, I was still left with fruit that had to be eaten out of hand or used in baking. That led to a pie and a galette, and, for the first time, a trial of Ina Garten's Fresh Peach Cake. This is a wonderful snack cake that also works for breakfast or a brunch. The cake is moist and has a lovely crumb, but strangely enough, I found it lacking in fresh peach flavor. That is not the fault of the recipe and I attribute it to the peaches I was using. They seemed fine when eaten out of hand but they lost their oomph when baked. Next year, I'll try a different variety of peach to see if I can get better flavor. At any rate, I know you'll love this cake. I suspect that Ina fans have already made it, but I wanted to include her recipe for those of you who would like to give it a try. Here is how it is made.
Fresh Peach Cake...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Ina Garten
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1-1/2 cups sugar, divided use
2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 large, ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
2) Combine butter and 1 cup sugar in bowl of an electric mixer. Beat with paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. With mixer on low speed, add eggs, one at a time, beating just until incorporated. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat until batter is smooth.
3) Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. With mixer on low, slowly add dry ingredients to batter and mix just until combined.
4) Combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon in another small bowl.
5) Spread half of batter evenly in pan. Top with half of peaches, then sprinkle with two-thirds of sugar mixture. Spread remaining batter on top, arrange remaining peaches on top, and sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture and pecans.
6) Bake cake for 45 to 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm or at room temperature. Yield: 8 servings.

Gamaliel Painter's Cane Society
The Gamaliel Painter's Cane Society recognizes Middlebury alumni, parents and friends who support the College through life income gifts and by including Middlebury in their estate plans. Over the past decade, this group has grown significantly. Today, we have more than 1,300 members.
Cane Society members receive a special pin which recognizes their gifts and bequest intentions. They also receive newsletters about College events and are invited to an annual gathering on Reunion Weekend.
The College wishes to express its deepest appreciation to members of the Society for their commitment to Middlebury and for carrying on the legacy of Gamaliel Painter.
Who was Gamaliel Painter?
Gamaliel Painter (1743-1819) was a forward-thinking fellow. He helped found Middlebury College and left a bequest that literally saved the fledgling school. He also bequeathed his steel-tipped walking stick with a deep blue ribbon, a replica of which each graduating Middlebury student receives.
A jurist, Painter was deeply involved in Vermont's early years as an independent republic (1777-91) and as it joined the United States.
- Captain and quartermaster in the Revolutionary War.
- Delegate to the 1777 convention of the Vermont Republic
- Representative to the Vermont legislature
- Judge of the county court
- Member of Vermont's first U.S. constitutional convention, 1793.
- Built first house in Middlebury, 1773.
- Left $10,000 and his walking stick to Middlebury, 1819.
- Memorialized by Painter Hall (originally West Hall), the oldest college building extant in Vermont.

RIO DE JANEIRO — Lucas Bazan Pontoni rifled through his pockets for the 45-cent lunch fee as he stood in line at a downtown soup kitchen. When he came up short, an acquaintance sprang for the government-subsidized meal.
One of about 160,000 Argentines who flooded into Brazil for the World Cup, Pontoni hardly fits the image of deep-pocketed foreigners who dropped around $3 billion in Brazil during the monthlong tournament. The 23-year-old actor is broke, and he has no immediate plans to return home almost two weeks after Germany beat Argentina in the July 13 final.
"Brazil is amazing, and I want to stay," said Pontoni, who had been camping out in Rio's Sambadrome Carnival parade grounds, lunching at soup kitchens and searching for an odd job to cover bus fare to see northern Brazil. "It could be weeks or months or longer. I'm going to see where life and the road take me."
Local media reports say tens of thousands of Argentine fans remain in the country. They appear to be overwhelmingly young and male: Most are in their 20s, and less than a third of them are women.
Brazil's Federal Police did not respond to email and telephone requests seeking confirmation of how many Argentines are still here. But the prospect of a large number of foreigners selling handicrafts, juggling at intersections for handouts or relying on government social services for poor Brazilians has officials worried.
Although Brazil's once-gangbuster economy has slowed in recent years, the situation is far better than that in crisis-wracked Argentina, which has a shortage of dollars and one of the world's highest inflation rates.
Antonio Pedro Figueira de Mello, who heads Rio's tourism promotion agency, has acknowledged that controls along Brazil's 1,260-kilometer (780-mile) land border with its southern neighbor may have been too lax during the tournament.
"We were taken by surprise" by the influx of Argentines, the Rio newspaper O Globo quoted Mello as saying. "In any place in the world, people have to state where they're going, how much time they're staying, what resources they have and whether they have health insurance. That was not done."
Argentines don't need a visa, or even a passport, to visit Brazil. A government ID card will do.
Mello spoke at the Sambadrome, which was turned into a makeshift campsite to help accommodate the waves of Argentines who arrived by car, bus and motorhome during the World Cup. The site was closed last week, and the last campers were evicted. Media reports said Argentine consular officials were there to help organize return transportation for people whose money ran out or whose documents were lost or stolen, but many reportedly weren't interested in such help.
The stragglers dress mostly in raggedy shorts, T-shirts and flip-flops, bathing infrequently at public water fountains or outdoor showers at the beach. There is no need for warm clothes in Rio, where the temperatures currently hover around 28 degrees Celsius (low 80s Fahrenheit).
Brazil and Argentine harbor a deep rivalry over soccer, and scattered fights between young men from both nations were seen in Rio and other cities during the Cup. But the lingering presence of the Argentines hasn't seemed to ruffle any feathers.
In fact, Fatima Souza de Oliveira, a 60-year-old high school Portuguese teacher, said she saw the stragglers as an homage to the Brazilian way of life.
"I think it's our relaxed attitude, our beaches and the warmth of the climate and the people that enchanted them," she said. "Everyone who came for the Cup loved it and they all probably wanted to stay."
The Argentines are not the only World Cup fans intent on remaining in Brazil. Last week, police in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul said several hundred fans from the West African nation of Ghana applied for asylum after coming in on tourist visas to follow their national team. Brazil is studying the applications.
It could prove much more difficult to control the Argentines, without any visa requirements.
Following their eviction from the Sambadrome, Pontoni and 10 or so of his compatriots moved to a nearby park, where they lounged on the grass with their oversized backpacks. They knotted friendship bracelets and prepared other handicrafts to hawk on the beach.
"I don't think I'm going back," said 25-year-old Martin Sichero, a friend of Pontoni. "I came for the World Cup, but now I think I'm here for good."
