Jansone remains on top as Bucs look to win title on Wednesday
NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. (April 13, 2010) - Several players capitalized on better scoring conditions on Tuesday to make big moves in the second round of the Atlantic Sun Conference Women's Golf Championship, highlighted by an ETSU women's team who turned a one-stroke deficit into a one-stroke advantage at the Venetian Bay Golf Club.
Kennesaw State currently trails the Buccaneers by just one shot, while Campbell is third and five strokes back. Third and final round action at the championships is set for Wednesday and fans can watch live scoring courtesy of Golfstat.com.
On Tuesday, senior Sinead O'Sullivan (Galway, Ireland) led the Bucs and fired a 2-under par 70 in the second round, posting the team's low round of the day. As a squad, the Buccaneers combined to post a score of 3-over par 291, as senior Laura Jansone (Jurmala, Latvia) stayed steady in her quest for a second Atlantic Sun Conference individual title, culminating her 1-over par 73 with a birdie at the 18th hole to maintain a one-stroke advantage for herself and her team after 36 holes.
"The girls are playing well," said ETSU head coach Stefanie Shelton, whose team is aiming for its second title in three seasons after capturing the 2008 A-Sun trophy. "We will always take a 3-over score of 291, but Kennesaw State and Campbell are also playing tough. Tomorrow we have to leave it all out there and see which team is the best in this conference.
"It would be a lot of fun and a great showdown tomorrow."
While Jansone leads, the Bucs placed three other players in the top 13, with sophomore Mayte Vizcarrondo (Cadiz, Spain) tied for seventh, sophomore Nina Muehl (Vienna, Austria) ninth, and O'Sullivan tied for 13th.
While ETSU remained consistent, Kennesaw State and Campbell posted the day's best rounds. The Owls matched the conference single-round record with their even-par round of 288. Ket Premchuen (2-under 70) and Jordan Lazenby (1-under 71) each broke par to help Kennesaw State vault into the championship's final groups on Wednesday and leave the duo just one shot behind Jansone in the race for the medalist honor. Both players struggled on the par-3 third hole with the freshman Premchuen taking a bogey and the senior Lazenby battling through a double bogey. However, after that hiccup, each played the final 15 holes at three-under par. Kennesaw State trails leader ETSU by just a single stroke heading into the final 18 holes.
Final round play begins at 8:00am on Wednesday morning with teams starting on both No. 1 and No. 10 at Venetian Bay Golf Club. Follow all the action at GolfStat.com.

Episode 13
Ah, Narumi-chan. I fell in love with you ever since your beautyful legs wrapped around my precious brain like a vice grip. Why did you have to show up so late?
While I'm not going to get into herself for now (Midonin brought the perfect example in Linda from Rio Rainbowgate.... who is a robot), but I still stand by what I truly felt before: I think this would have been better suited right after ep 06, as not only was she finally introduced in that ep, but since it wrapped up Usami's intro story, ep 13 showed that Narumi was rather on good terms with Kureha and Usami. I bring this up because Usami's reaction to Subaru definitely felt pre-Punyuru, and not to mention ep 07 (that beach ep) showed us that Kureha and Usami and Narumi were already in their own little group. While I'm not peeved overall (heck at least we got this ep 13), it really does look like this ep would fit right there after ep 06 as well.
But whatever! Narumi got a lot of screentime, and that's the Yukikaze Panettone I always wanted. Big ones, those ears, that voice.... ah, where's my Dog Days Season 2..... damn you Jirou getting rubbed on by those big ones
Usami bathing! Whoooohoooo I get both Narumi and Usami goodness in one ep!
Now, I feel some of you are a little on harsh on Narumi regarding her sunglasses save when she jumped off the roof. To be honest, it's not a stupid thing to do. Coming from me, that says a lot But more importantly, how strange is that? Obviously she has priorities, in the same way that joke went when there's a fire in a house, the first thing a guy does is run for his life, and the wife runs for her jewelry. .....er, I think I got that wrong but the point I'm saying, is that what she has (her glasses), she cared very much about more than what she was trying to get (Subaru photos). Never, ever knock on a person for caring about something. Or was the saying like.... "A man who has something he cares about is more scarier than a man who has nothing".... nvm
Another thing of note, which I'm not sure others have seen. I really don't think Narumi's going to hang onto this BL thing of hers. Like Usami, I think she's going to change as well in regards to how she views boys. See, the way I saw it, was that currently she's in this BL phase, but when she finally got confessed to, she got confused. Leave it to the plot to have her seek advice from the nearest male, but with her reaction to the cool Jirou, and her time limit to her BL endeavors (since the new semester just started), it's not hard to see she's very much going to change like Usami has, and if they ever go at a second season, this is something I hope is touched on.
Crow: Hey mangatron, new Mayo Chiki posters! They're thumbnails though
mangatron: Ohhh, I gotta see this! *clicks*
mangatron: What the heck, no blood is coming out. Maybe because.... RESOLUTION IS TOO SMALL I NEED TO SEE BIGGER 1'S *frantically scrambles for a microscope*
Gotta love the first comment there. "Weak selection." What the heck man? They can't cram every series in there. Obviously they are closing out the Summer and bringing in some Fall, so just enjoy the skin girls :P
But look at Narumi's legs! I didn't get enough of those pantyhose covered legs... I'd say that ranks as my most crushed expectation of this series
Your ratings for first half/second half of this series is spot on though, echoing my thoughts exactly. Except....I NEVER GOT TO SEE KUREHA'S MOM WHAT THE HECK LOL
But....lol... I refuse to accept defeat! I can't have lost! Your bet is invalid! Because I did get to see her pantsu! *runs*
Ahem.... until the Blu-rays finish their run, this bet isn't over yet! *runs off crying for his Mercelida mommy*

But yeah what I'm saying for the case of Mayo Chiki while perhaps the author initial plan was for Subaru and Jirou to end up together that could easily change. Like you pointed out, since Kanade has the influence, it might probably end in HER harem instead of his and that would be a 'good' conclusion. As for this series I have no expectations on the final conclusion you find that you will be more satisfied by the end of the run that way. It sucks when your ship doesn't make the short list so don't have a ship.
Ironically I find myself caught in the first girl wins syndrome in almost all series I follow no matter whether I like the other girls more meh...

I finally managed to finish to see all the latest episodes..
i give to this show 8/10
The best Character for me, naturally is Ojou-sama...for everything she has done...
Theory to be crazy..........: i hope, in the end is KanadexJirouxSubaru...becouse is easy to see that Kanade like Jirou but she also (love) Subaru..and then she not get in the way and help the two of them becoming a couple...the same thing is for Subaru, she love Jirou,but she also (love) Kanade..and she don't want to leave her alone.....
Haaaaaa....I give a Mangatron 10/10 for all picture of Kanade..... thanks

The School of the Osage is moving toward some type of bond issue for some type of facility to help correct overcrowding at the Mills Elementary School in Lake Ozark.
The School of the Osage is moving toward some type of bond issue for some type of facility to help correct overcrowding at the Mills Elementary School in Lake Ozark.
But specifics of any plan are far from complete as the school's Facilities Planning Committee continues to consider at least two options, though neither has been made public as yet. The group has met several times with some assistance from J. C. Reardon of Ittner Architects from St. Louis.
Superintendent Brent Depeé told the board last week that a 2013 bond issue is possible with possession of a new facility in 2014 or 2015. No specific location or timeline has been developed yet.
Facilities Planning Committee member Rocky Miller said Mills, which serves children K-2, is at capacity, and the committee is considering a recently developed alternative. He said Depeé and Assistant Superintendent Tony Hermann came up with an option that will be considered by the entire committee.
"The committee has said that something needs to change at Mills because the students are being underserved," board member Allison Schneider said.
Miller stopped short of revealing the most recent alternative, saying the concept has been sent back to the overall committee for review.
"The top priority in our district is overcrowding, and Mills is the chokepoint," Miller said. "To solve that, we're actively looking at options that long term will create a better community."
There are 30 classrooms at Mills, and four classes — Title I, Resource, Art and Music — are at 100 percent capacity. The Computers class is at 80 percent occupied. There are eight sections of grades at Mills, and if a ninth section is required because of increased enrollment school officials will use what is now the computer room.
A student requiring special testing must sit at a desk in the hallway.
Many teachers have been forced to create classrooms within their classroom comprised of dividers or bookcases for special activities and projects. This, school officials say, takes away from a quality learning environment.
"A positive is that the teachers are working together, working among themselves, to overcome the difficulties of the building," Depeé said.
There is speculation that the Lake Ozark TIF Project – The Shoppe's at Eagles Landing – will provide additional revenue for the school district that can be used for updating facilities.
"When you look at the TIF projects, they call for both residential and retail additions," Depeé said. That will bring more tax dollars to the district.
Board member Steven Hermann said before the board goes to the community to ask for a possible change in the tax levy to support a new facility it needs to make sure its homework is done.
In a conversation after the meeting, Hermann said, "we need to have good explanations for the public."
Assistant Superintendent Tony Hermann said "teachers do a great job now with limits of classroom size. I don't know how long it can stay that way. There are two or three teachers sometimes in one room, and currently we have three services in one room."
Classroom considerations
Ittner Architects has been a source of information for the school and the Facilities Committee. The company designed the Middle School, which opened only a couple of years ago.
Ittner has recommendations for classroom sizes based on its own research, while North Carolina schools is considered a national model for classroom square footage.
The kindergarten classrooms are currently 675 square feet, Ittner recommends 1,100 square feet and North Carolina suggests 1,200 square feet.
The first and second grade classrooms at Mills are 812 square feet; Ittner recommends 950 and North Carolina standards are 1,000-1,200.
The library at Mills is 1,176 square feet, Ittner recommends 2,500-3,000 square feet and North Carolina suggests 2,800.

If a customer requires an iPhone site, an iPhone site he will get. That's business.
But it's also our job to educate customers so that they consider a site that works for the majority of the planet. If they decide they don't want that, so be it.
It seems to me that developers should bug Apple to fix the bug in their media queries implementation so the standards-based CSS approach is more viable that device-specific sites.
Anyway, I would say that, wouldn't I? And I didn't come here to pontificate, but rather to bring your attention to a rather excellent blog post by Greg Rewis that researches ""what does a mobile device download when encountering a page using media queries?".

Last weekend Kevin Terry, a former member of the Lipscomb soccer team, was on NBC Sports as one of the officials for an MLS game between New York and Kansas City. A member of the Professional Referee Organization (PRO) his goal is to become a FIFA referee. This weekend he is headed to Philadelphia for another MLS matchup. He has also started the school year at Whitsitt Elementary where he teaches physical education. Despite an extremely busy schedule Kevin spent some time this week with lipscombsports.com. for an extended version of Where Are They Now?
What sport did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played soccer from 2004 through 2007. I played center-midfield.
"Jim Maddux was my freshman year coach. Charles Morrow coached me the last three years."
What persuaded you to choose Lipscomb?
"I was from Dallas, Texas, but I was recruited by Jim at a soccer camp at Clemson University. I had not heard of Lipscomb.
"When I came to Lipscomb on my campus visit I liked the students, the atmosphere and the camaraderie of the team. I liked the look of the school. It wasn't too big. It wasn't too small."
Tell us about your work as a referee?
"Right now I am considered to be a Grade III referee which is a professional referee. In the MLS, the highest level of soccer, I am considered to be a fourth official.
"I don't work in the middle in the MLS but I work in the middle in NASL Division II and USL Pro. I have refereed games that Ben Page and Garret Pettis (former Bisons players) in USL Pro played in. It's the circle of soccer.
"The fourth official controls the bench area. He handles the coaches, the substitutes and the stoppage time. If the referee, or one of the assistant referees, gets injured I have to come in as a replacement. That happened last year in Montreal when I had to replace one of the assistant referees.
"Every weekend I am in a different city. This weekend I go to Philadelphia. Last week I was in Kansas City. This summer I spent two weeks at a tournament in Toulon, France."
What is your ultimate goal as a referee?
"Being a FIFA referee is the highest level. That is grade one. My goal is to be at that level in five years. I will be 32.
"I have to be a referee at the top level in the MLS for two or three years before I can qualify. I have been in the MLS for two years, but it doesn't count since I have been a fourth referee. I haven't been a center referee at that level.
"The center referee is the one in charge. He is the person in control of the referees. He is the one that runs the most.
"Every game I have an assessor observing me at the game. There is also someone watching on TV where they can look at replays. Those evaluations can help you go up the ladder or down the ladder."
Your father, Kevin Terry, Sr., was a referee as well. How has he influenced you?
"My father is retired now, but he is a teacher for referees. He was a FIFA referee and was a referee in the MLS for several years. He also worked some World Cup qualifying matches.
"He is my mentor. He watches every one of my games. If he can't come to it he watches it on TV or on the Internet.
"He has helped me grow. Watching him referee I Iearned a lot of tricks and how he communicated with players and coaches. He always looked like he was enjoying himself on the field.
"He tells me when I have messed up. He is my biggest critic."
Did you plan to one day be a referee?
"I always was good at it. My parents wanted me to do the same thing as my Dad. But I really didn't like it. I wanted to play professionally. I wasn't really good enough to do that so the next best thing was being a referee.
"Other people were telling me I was good so I listened to them. Your parents always are telling you that you are good at something, but it wasn't until other people told me, `hey, you are really good and you should try it', that I really went for it.
"It is always a plus when you have played the game. You understand the players. You understand what they are going through on a tackle and what their mindset is. It helps me to know where to be on the field."
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"I guess it would be the `Battle of the Boulevard' my senior year when the whole hill was completely full. They did a blackout night and had a band playing in the parking lot.
"It was a great atmosphere. That is probably the most fans I had ever played in front of."
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb? How?
"Jim Maddux was awesome. We still stay in contact. His brother Jeff was an assistant.
"Charles Morrow and Kevin Burk were big influences. We are always text messaging. We keep up-to-date with what is happening.
"I was one of 14 freshmen and I was a starter. Jim expected a lot from us as freshmen. He held us to a very high standard. That made me want to be better.
"My freshman year we lost every single game. But Jim always kept pushing us. At Hillsboro we struggled. I wanted to push my players like Jim pushed us.
"Charles and Kevin always pushed me in practice. They always knew we could do better. By my senior year we went to the playoffs for the first time.
"They all four were always there trying to make us better whether it was fitness, skills or tactics."
What is your fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
"I met my wife, Devin, at Lipscomb and we dated all four years. We have been married for a year. The best part of my life has been my four years at Lipscomb.
"I guess it is going back to sports, but I loved going to all of the basketball games."
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"The life lessons I learned there like walking the Christian faith. I liked the atmosphere there.
"Basically, you knew almost everybody on campus or you saw them around campus. You had a good group of friends that you knew and could always rely on."
Who was your favorite professor? Why?
"Trish Hodgson and Kent Johnson.
"Miss Trish was my favorite. She was going through a lot with her health while she was teaching, but she was always there and giving it 200 percent in the classroom. It was great having her.
"I wasn't the best student in Dr. Johnson's classes. His classes were the hardest classes. He always made me think. I really appreciate what he did for me."
Where do you live now?
"We are living in Brentwood."
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I am an elementary school teacher at Whitsitt Elementary. This will be my second year. I coached soccer at Hillsboro three years and was a teacher there for two years."
Tell us about your family.
"My wife's name is Devin. We have been married for one year."

WASHINGTON � At least 12 people were dead after a shooting rampage Monday at the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command headquarters in Washington.
WASHINGTON � At least 12 people were dead after a shooting rampage Monday at the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command headquarters in Washington.
One gunman was killed at the scene of the shooting Monday morning while police searched for two other men � both seen in military-style clothing � who may have been involved, Washington Metropolitan Police Department Chief Cathy Lanier said.
�Right now, we�re confirming at least 12 fatalities,� Lanier told reporters at a briefing. At least four others were wounded, including a Washington police officer who was in critical condition.
�We will do everything in our power to make sure whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible,� President Barack Obama said before a speech on the fifth anniversary of Wall Street�s financial crisis.
�We are going to be investigating thoroughly what happened � as we do so many of these shootings, sadly, that have happened � and do everything that we can to try to prevent them,� Obama said.
The shooting, around 8:15 a.m. about a mile from the U.S. Capitol, shuttered streets near the Navy Yard and prompted lockdowns of eight schools nearby. Helicopters circled overhead, and Mayor Vincent Gray advised residents to stay away from the area.
One of those injured by a gunman was a Washington police officer who responded to the incident. �We�ve obviously had a horrific tragedy,� Gray told reporters. Gray said at least four people were wounded.
Navy Cmdr. Tim Jirus said he was in his fourth-floor office when the fire alarm went off and he fled to an alley outside. He stopped to speak with another man, whom he didn�t know, when he heard what sounded like gun shots. He saw the man shot in the head.
�To hear the gun shots and realize you were that close makes me a little unnerved,� Jirus, who works for Naval Sea Systems Command, told reporters outside the Navy Yard. �It makes me like life a lot today. I�m going to hug my kids the next time I see them.
Patricia Ward, a logistics manager at the Navy Yard, said she was in a cafeteria when she heard at least seven gunshots � three followed by a pause and then four more � from upper stories of the building. She fled along with others, when she saw a security guard with a gun drawn who advised them to run.
�The ones that were in the cafeteria with us, we all just looked at each other. At first they said let�s just stay here in the cafeteria. I said no, I�m getting out. So everybody just started running out the side door.�
Streets around the Navy Yard, in southeast Washington, remained closed as police searched for the other potential shooters. Police cars, tactical vehicles and emergency responders raced along M Street Southeast, with sirens blaring.
Rear Adm. John Kirby, a spokesman for the Navy, said the buildings at the yard remain locked down.
�This is an active search scene,� Kirby told reporters at the Pentagon. �This isn�t over for law enforcement or for our people over there.�
Three of the wounded were taken to MedStar Washington Hospital Center, where they were in critical condition.
Janis Orlowski, the hospital�s chief operating officer, told reporters that the victims were awake, but so far unable to discuss the incident. The police officer, who was among the three treated at the hospital, suffered wounds to the leg, while two women were shot in the shoulder, head and hand.
�Obviously, they�re in pain and distressed,� she said.
The shooting shut down streets around southeast Washington as police rushed to the scene, and lack of official word led to conflicting news accounts throughout the morning about the number of those hurt or shooters involved.
The incident briefly grounded flights out of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
Obama was briefed several times this morning about the Navy Yard shooting by his homeland security adviser, Lisa Monaco, according to a White House official, who wasn�t authorized to speak on the record.
The U.S. Capitol Police said they are assisting in the investigation of the shooting, which occurred at about 8:20 a.m. Washington time.
The Washington Navy Yard, located along the Anacostia River, was created in 1799 and is the oldest military installation in the U.S., according to the U.S. Navy. It is home to several Navy offices and commands, including the Navy Museum. The Naval Sea Systems Command oversees the service�s $30 billion annual budget for developing ships, submarines and their combat systems.

Lipscomb Bisons coach Scott Sanderson would like the gift of defensive consistency for his team, but he can't wait until Christmas to get his wish.
The Bisons will be balancing final exams with basketball the next several days starting Thursday night when SIU Edwardsville (2-6) visits Allen Arena for a game at 7. The Bisons (2-5) beat SIU Edwardsville 67-64 Nov. 28, but Sanderson expects to see a much different team this time around.
"They have a good, solid team," said Sanderson. "They have lost a lot of close games."
SIU Edwardsville upset host Drake 60-58 in the first round of the HyVee Classic. They beat Texas-Arlington 71-67 to win the tournament title.
The Bisons first win of the season was at SIU Edwardsville, a member of the Ohio Valley Conference. The Bisons are 0-2 at home this season.
"We have lost a couple of games we didn't think we were going to lose," said Sanderson. "I think that could be a benefit if we learn from this."
Regardless of who the Bisons are playing Sanderson wants to see a better defensive effort.
"We are looking for consistency on the defensive end of the floor," said Sanderson. "Teams are shooting 52 percent from the floor against us. If they just shot 45 percent against us we would be winning by 10 or 15 points because we have been about as good offensively as we have been since I have been here.
"Teams are especially shooting at an unbelievable clip against us from 3-point range. They are making almost 11 threes (10.6) a game against us. I don't care who you are, that is hard to overcome."
Adding to Sanderson's frustration is that those 3-point shots are being contested.
"All of our games except Vanderbilt and Ohio State have been going down to the wire and we are giving up 10.6 threes a game," said Sanderson. "And they are contested shots.
" You would think there is no way that teams can continue to do that. But so far for seven games that has been the case. You can't let shot making by the other team affect your energy defensively. We will get better defensively."
Junior center Adnan Hodzic leads the Bisons with 21.6 points per game. Junior guard Josh Slater is averaging 19 points per game followed by junior forward Brandon Brown with 13.7. Sophomore guard Jordan Burgason is averaging 9.7 points per game. Junior Michael Teller is shooting at a 7.6 points per game pace.
"Teams can key on Adnan if they want to," said Sanderson. "But Jordan is going to get 30-something points. Josh Slater will score. Michael Teller, Brandon Brown and Brian Wright will get their points."
"We probably have been a little better offensively than I anticipated. We have a lot of guys who can score with the basketball."
One of the key changes that has helped the offense is the shifting of Josh Slater to the point guard position.
"We have a point guard in Josh and a five-man in Adnan who can put a lot of pressure on a defense," said Sanderson. "And then we have all of the wing guys who can shoot it or slide.
"We are shooting 47 percent from 2-points, 35 percent from 3-point range and in league play we are shooting 84 percent from the free throw line. Our turnovers are gradually coming down. But we still have to get better offensively."
Winning these next two games at home are crucial, but Sanderson is also concerned that is team play well on both ends of the court.
"I want us to play well on both sides of the ball," said Sanderson. "We are rebounding the ball very, very well, but we the only problem is we are only getting a 48 percent opportunity to rebound. We have always been a very good rebounding team, but there are fewer to get.
"We understand our limitations. We just have to keep working and everything corrected. We can't be discouraged. Hopefully, when we get back into league play we will have it rectified."Written by Mark McGee, Senior Publisher/Director of Media Relations

Department of Revenue News Release
September 24, 2009Reformed License Office Bidding Process Reaches Numerical and Financial Milestones
Agents Named for Charleston, Eminence, Kingston, Licking, Mound City, New Madrid & Rock Port Offices
JEFFERSON CITY - Gov. Jay Nixon's reformed system of awarding state license offices has reached two milestones.
With the announcement of management contracts for seven more local motor vehicle/license offices, more than half (94) of the state's 183 offices have been awarded under the new system. In addition, the annual amount of money that the reformed process will return to the state has surpassed half a million dollars.
"When I took office in January, one of the first actions I took was to implement long-needed reforms in the way that license offices were awarded," Gov. Nixon said. "In the past, political patronage was the main reason certain people got an office. Now, we have a transparent system that embraces open competition and puts an emphasis on office efficiency and improved customer service."
In addition to the reformed competitive nature of the new system, bidders also have the option of returning some of a license office's revenues to the state. The cumulative amount of estimated funds that will be returned to the state in the first contract year from the 94 license offices that have been awarded so far is $521,962.
"Since many office agents will make money from the providing of state services, it's only fair that bidders have the option of returning some of the profits so that important state services can be funded," Gov. Nixon said. "For some of the smaller offices, returning money to the state may not be a realistic option. However, many of the offices have bid to return some of their revenues, and this new bidding process has resulted in fiscal efficiencies for the state that were never dreamed of in past administrations."
The seven offices awarded this week are in Charleston, Eminence, Kingston, Licking, Mound City, New Madrid and Rock Port.
The Charleston Chamber of Commerce is the new agent for the Charleston License Office. The chamber's bid was chosen from three that were submitted. The office will stay at its present location of 104 E. Tom White St. As part of its bid, the chamber will return 7 percent ($5,155) of the office's estimated first-year revenues to the state.
The Eminence License Office has been awarded to Turner Insurance of Eminence. Turner Insurance is run by Brandon and Michelle Turner, who have been the manager and agent, respectively, of the office since 2005. Turner Insurance submitted the only bid for the office. The location of the office will stay the same - 116 N. Main St. The office will return 3 percent ($1,121) of its first-year revenues.
Lisa M. Prater of Hamilton, doing business as Kingston License Office, will continue to be the agent of the Kingston License Office. Prater was the only person to submit a bid, and she has been the office agent since 2005. The office will remain at 49 E. Main St., and it will annually return one-twelfth of 1 percent ($51) to the state.
The Licking License Office will continue to be run by Alicia J. Swindell of Licking. Swindell has operated the office since 2005. The office attracted one bid, and it will stay at its current location of 104 E. Highway 32. No return to the state was included in the bid.
Joseph Laukemper of Mound City will remain as the agent of the Mound City License Office. Laukemper submitted the only bid for the office, which he has run since 2005. The office will stay at 302 Nebraska St. No return to the state was included in the bid.
Rose Mary Williams of New Madrid has been awarded the agent contract for the New Madrid License Office. Williams, who has been the office agent since 2005, was one of two bidders for the office. The office will remain at its current location of 450 Main St. The office will return 2 percent ($1,253) of its annual revenues to the state.
The Rock Port License Office has been awarded to Midwest Data Center, Inc. of Rock Port, which submitted the only bid. The corporation, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Rock Port Telephone Co., is associated with the incumbent agent, Raymond Henagan. Henagan was appointed as the agent in 2008. The office will remain at 214 S. Main St., and it will return one-half of 1 percent ($199) of its annual revenues to the state.
Details about any changes in office operations, if any, will be announced by the agents.
Although Gov. Nixon authorized the Missouri Department of Revenue to implement the new bidding system in January, it didn't become part of state law until legislation was signed by the Governor earlier this summer. The new law was overwhelmingly approved by both Republican and Democratic members of the Missouri Legislature.
Of the 94 offices awarded, 50 have gone to incumbents or been awarded to family members of incumbent agents. Forty-four of the offices have been awarded to new agents. Of the 183 total offices, bidding has closed on 176, and seven remain open for bidding. For a list of winning bidders for license offices, please go to http://oa.mo.gov/purch/awardedfeeoffices.pdf.
Alana M. Barragán-Scott, acting director of the Missouri Department of Revenue, noted the success of the new bidding process.
"More than half of the offices have been awarded, and all of the department employees working on this project have done a fantastic job," she said. "I truly believe that this new competitive system is the best way to award these offices, and the people of Missouri will be the ultimate winners because of the improved customer service and increased financial efficiencies."
All local license offices provide services that are overseen by the Department of Revenue, but each office is operated by an independent contractor. Transactions that are conducted at these offices include the issuance and renewal of driver licenses, issuance of titles for motor vehicles, and the issuance and renewal of registration for motor vehicles, boats and outboard motors.
Additional information on the bids will be posted by the Missouri Office of Administration within the next few days.

Fragile states, an opportunity to deliver lasting security and development
Next week, I will be joining World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on an historic joint visit to Africa's Great Lakes Region. The aim of the trip is to brainstorm with African leaders solutions to helping the people of the Great Lakes prosper.
This visit is important for two reasons - it highlights a new era of global institutions working together to promote stability, and it signals to the citizens of fragile and conflict affected nations our commitment: we will not leave you behind.
Many countries in today's world have struggled, or are struggling, through war or political conflict to rebuild themselves and lift their people out of poverty. They are called fragile states, nations with poor health and education, little or no electricity, disorganized or weakened institutions, and in many cases no functioning governments. In Africa, 18 of the 48 countries in the sub Region are considered fragile, six of them so much so that UN, NATO or African Union forces are on the ground helping to keep peace.

Byrd Camp (Antarctica), December 7 — At 4:45 PM today we boarded another Delta for a ride to Pegasus field. The last weather report we had for Byrd Camp was for half-mile visibility and 40-knot winds with blowing snow. The conditions were predicted to continue to deteriorate, so I expected the flight to be canceled. When we arrived Pegasus we saw our gear being loaded on an LC-130 flown by the 109th Air Wing. We also saw a plane taxiing to the skiway that was headed to WAIS Divide camp, which is about 100 kilometers (62 miles) from Byrd. So when we say that plane take off, we knew we had a good chance of getting into Byrd.
We took off at around 8 PM for the 3-hour flight to Byrd. Jessica got to ride in the cockpit for take-off. During the flight, we looked out the windows into clouds for most of the time, but at one point the Ross Ice Shelf was visible and we saw a large crack in the ice shelf, which was exciting to see though I do not know anything about the science behind it. I will ask and expert in a few weeks and get back to you with more information about the crack.
We arrived Byrd Camp around 11:00 PM. After we landed, all of our cargo was combat off-loaded. A combat off-load is when they open the back of the LC-130 and send the palettes out the back with a swift kick and a sudden acceleration of the plane. This method is very rough on our gear and we will have to double-check everything again to make sure nothing is broken. One of my constant reminders to the team is, "Don't break anything": We have to fix anything we break and we may not have the parts. So combat off-loading of gear makes me very nervous, but we didn't have any other choice. And it is actually really fun to see the combat off-loads if you forget that it is your gear.
Here are some pictures of the combat off-load:
Here is a picture of the team finally in the field.
We had a quick tour of Byrd Camp and then went to tent city to our tents to sleep for the night. I was warm all night but others were a bit cold on their first night in their tents. We are finally ready to start the science!

This collection is a memorial to the bibliophile Hugh Sharp (1897-1937), a wealthy jute manufacturer in Dundee, who died in a railway accident. His private library, collected in the last eight years of his life, was presented in 1938 by his mother and sister. It comprises over 1,200 volumes, mostly first editions of the classics of English and American literature, and is notable for the very fine condition of the works acquired, many in original state. One of the earliest books in the collection is the first complete edition of the works of Chaucer (1532), from the library of Lord Hastings, and one of the latest, the first edition of Gone with the Wind (1936). There is a copy of the first edition of Milton?s Paradise Lost (1667) with the first state of the title-page; the copy of Milton?s Poems (1645) which belonged to Lewis Stucley, chaplain to Cromwell; and the Huth-Rosebery copy of the first issue of the Authorized Version of the Bible (1611). English novels and plays of the 18th century are strongly represented, as are the major works of 19th-century English literature. Notable items include a copy of the suppressed first edition of Alice?s Adventures in Wonderland (1865), withdrawn by Lewis Carroll because of the poor printing of Tenniel?s illustrations, and the first edition of Jane Austen?s Pride and Prejudice (1813) in original boards. Among a number of works with literary and historical associations is the copy of The Lay of the Last Minstrel (1805), Scott?s first original work, presented by the author to Dorothy Wordsworth, and later gifted by William Wordsworth to his niece Dora. Besides the first published edition of Edward Lear?s A Book of Nonsense (1846), the collection also has a privately printed edition which may precede it. The works of the major American writers of the 19th century are present, as well as earlier works of travel and exploration in America. Amongst the Americana is George Washington?s Official Letters to the Honorable American Congress, 2 vol. (London, 1795), with the author?s signature on both title-pages, and three pages of manuscript notes by the editor John Carey explaining his editorial methods.
?Memorial gift to National Library?, The Scotsman, 11 February 1938. Short-Title Catalogue of the Hugh Sharp Collection, Edinburgh, 1954. H.S.1243-4 is a catalogue of the collection compiled by Hugh Sharp himself, and containing notes about many of the works. Inscriptions, letters and papers inserted in the printed books are described and indexed in Vol. II of the Library?s Catalogue of Manuscripts. H.F.B. Sharp, Books of American and Canadian Interest, 1613-1932, Privately Printed, [1932?].

"Best B&B I have ever visited"A faraway friend found this B&B on Tripadvisor and reserved us rooms for a reunion. What a perfect choice. A mid-Victorian showplace, beautifully restored with original character retained [but private baths for each room!] provided real character and warmth as well as beauty. It boasts, I think, 6 porches! The beds were exceptional, the quiet blissful, the hosts welcoming and gracious, KarenMarie is a talented chef who cooks local ingredients with knowledge and passion. She and her husband made us very happy.

High school senior Shakhi Begum walked from her mosque Sunday afternoon to a rally for Cambridge Rindge and Latin School students, alumni, and other community members affected by the Boston Marathon bombings.
She had just read an e-mail a Christian supporter sent the mosque, the Islamic Society of Boston on Prospect Street, from which Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was ejected twice after outbursts. A line from the message resonated with Begum. She wrote it on a path near the rally in pink and green chalk: "We don't have to see eye to eye to hold hand in hand."
"Everybody is cooperating and healing together," said Begum, a leopard-print hijab wrapped around her hair.
About 150 alumni and students of Rindge and Latin, which Marathon bombing suspects Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev attended, gathered with community leaders and Cambridge residents Sunday at Joan Lorentz Park.
"We can process things alone or we can heal together," said organizer Samuel Gebru, who graduated from Rindge and Latin in 2009.
The speakers did not mention Dzhokhar, who graduated in 2011 and is now in custody, or his older brother Tamerlan, who was killed in a shoot-out with police last week.
"We didn't want to focus on them," Gebru said. "We all know what happened. We want to talk about healing."
Instead, they spoke about the diversity of the school's student body, the different languages students hear when they walk the halls, and how students and alumni can support one another.
On April 20, the day after the younger Tsarnaev brother was found hiding in a boat in Watertown and arrested, Gebru said he contacted friends about doing something to bring their school's alumni community together. Over the next week they held meetings and conference calls and spoke with city officials.
"It's horrible no matter who it is, but when it's one of your own, it disorients you even more. To think, we walked the same hallways, ate the same food," Gebru said.
The office of Mayor Henrietta Davis donated white T-shirts bearing the words "Cambridge Strong," hastily printed on Friday, said Matt Nelson, Davis's chief of staff. The shirts were free, though people were encouraged to donate to the Friends of Cambridge Rindge and Latin School foundation.
Rindge and Latin senior class president Mahmood Abu-Rubieh said he recognized Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's face the moment he saw the FBI security camera photos of the bombing suspects days after the Marathon.
He spoke with some friends to verify that the young man in the white hat looked like the person he had sparred with during wrestling practice, the guy he considered a "friendly face" but didn't know too well. One of his friends called authorities.
Abu-Rubieh said the events of the last two weeks will bind his classmates.
"We'll always be a community. We'll keep in touch on Facebook, I'm sure," he said. "It's hard to understand that we'll need to deal with a situation like this."
Gebru said he hopes to plan another, larger gathering in late May to raise funds for the One Fund for Marathon bombing victims and their families.Gal Tziperman Lotan can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

How can I provide security for documents uploaded to that server? I thought I might be able to take advantage of the vkey value in the API config, but it doesn't seem to get passed back to my server. There is nothing to stop someone from download other users' files if they can get the document's key.


text: For the past 6 weeks, I have taken continuing 10-day courses of Cipro for urinary burning and urgency that occur at the end of urination. Because I am allergic to most antibiotics, I've only taken Cipro. I have NO back pain and no other symptoms except, incidentally I suppose, a swollen right knee (off and on) and joint pain all over my body (which I have had for a long time and have been treated with all the drugs that have now been taken off the market for inflammation). My initial several urinanalyses showed non-specific, mixed flora but 10 days ago, that urinanalyses showed a high white blood cell count. Additionally, I have been given Pyridium, Pyridium Plus, and now Urised--all of which have worked for a couple of days but not long term. I've had ultrasounds taken of my kidneys and bladder, all of which were negative except for a couple of small cysts in my left kidney which urinologists discounted as to my age, 71. One urologist "diagnosed" me with IC - which the next urinologist said I didn't have but he had no diagnosis at all. My family doctor ended up treating me the last time (10 days ago) with additional Cipro, Urised, 5 milligrams of Valium at night for two weeks and Primarin cream. I finished the Cipro three days ago, stopped taking the Urised to see if burning/urgency symptoms would persist--and they did. My family doctor's office is closed this week for vacation. I MUST be eating or drinking or doing something that exacerabates my condition. I take Accupril (generic), .81 enteric-coated aspirin, and Prozac daily. When my knee swells, I take ibuprofen - but this symptom just comes and goes with no regularity. Please somebody HELP!Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

Karin Porzuczek, a sixth-grade teacher at Vista del Mar Middle School and the school's 2012 teacher of the year, began her teaching career in 1979 in Texas.
She moved on to teach special-education students in several states from California to New Jersey. In 1998 Porzuczek began working in the Capistrano Unified School District as a resource specialist at Aliso Viejo Middle School. In 2002, she was chosen to be on the planning team for the opening of Vista del Mar Middle School.
Porzuczek answered a few questions via email about her experiences as a teacher.
Q. How does it feel to be named Vista del Mar Middle School teacher of the year?
A. It is an honor to be chosen as teacher of the year for Vista del Mar Middle School. It is important to also recognize that I represent an exemplary group of educators, staff and students.
Q. What motivates you?
A. By nature I am a high-energy person. I use that energy to help others, which motivates me in the classroom.
Q. Do you have a favorite memory from your time as a teacher at Vista del Mar Middle School?
A. I had the opportunity to be Aretha Franklin singing "Respect" in the annual school air guitar show. I was in my element.
Q. What has been your greatest accomplishment so far?
A. My greatest accomplishment is being the mother of two wonderful sons, Paul and John. The many experiences of motherhood have helped me to be a better teacher in the classroom and appreciate the young people today.
Q. What do you hope to accomplish in the coming year?
A. First of all, I hope to be on air guitar again. All kidding aside, I am part of a team that is training teachers at our site to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of diverse learners. My special-education background includes many of these strategies, which makes me excited to support other teachers.

Rubber bathtub mats, rope-soled deck shoes, and astronauts' Velcro-soled booties attest to humans' preference for nonskid footing. For pollinating creatures such as bees, the same seems to be true. A new study has revealed that in simulated windy conditions, bees choose flowers that have conical-shaped cells on their petals. The microscopic cell structures provide welcome anchor points for the bees as they perch on wind-tossed petals to slurp up nectar.
"The bees' claws hook in between the cells, kind of like Velcro, and it helps them hold onto the flower better," says Katrina Alcorn of the University of Cambridge, first author of the paper. Coauthors Beverley Glover, also at Cambridge, and Heather Whitney of the University of Bristol had previously shown that when it comes to hard-to-handle flowers, such as snapdragons, pollinators prefer petals outfitted with grippy conical cells to those with smoother textures. The researchers wondered if the tactile benefit of the cells extended to other flowering plants with simpler architectures.
To find out, the team presented bumblebees with two kinds of petunias: one with normal conical cells and a mutant with flat cells. Both types of flowers were placed on a platform in the lab that shook the petunias about as if blown by natural breezes.
With the flowers in motion, the bumblebees favored the conical-celled petunias over the slipperier alternative. The results show why the tiny petal structures have proven such a popular feature throughout evolutionary history. "You find the conical cells pretty much across all plant families, so we think that's fairly good evidence that they evolved early on," says Alcorn. (Functional Ecology)

The data search and computation engine Wolfram Alpha has gone live. The web-based application, which is billed as a 'computational knowledge engine', went live for testing on Friday and was officially launched on Monday. "Fifty years ago, when computers were young, people assumed that they'd be able to ask a computer any factual question, and have it compute the answer," Stephen Wolfram, the founder and chief executive of Wolfram Research, said in a statement. "I'm happy to say that we've successfully built a system that delivers knowledge from a simple input field, giving access to a huge system, with trillions of pieces of curated data and millions of lines of algorithms."

As many of you may know, the state is working on a project to upgrade all schools bandwidth connections to a Fast Ethernet connection. In this process, there will be new telecommunications equipment along with a fiber connection that will need to be installed at your school.
Normally this equipment would be placed in the DMARC room or the telecommunications room. In some cases, this could also be a boiler room, storage closet, etc. In most cases, it is where the telephone system is installed.
However, some schools have what is called an extended DMARC. An extended DMARC is present when the circuit is terminated in the DMARC room and then wiring is run in some manner to another room where the state router and switch are located.
As you prepare for the transition to Fast Ethernet, please make sure that your technical coordinator, superintendent and the local telecommunications officer talk about where to place this new fiber. The state would suggest that it be placed in the same room as the state router and switch. NOTE: Fiber could have been already placed a while ago.
If the new fiber is not placed in the same location as the state router and switch, your school MAY need to pay for wiring to extend the DMARC to the state router and switch. The wiring length specification of cat5 cable is only 300 feet. If the distance between the new fiber and the state router is over 300 feet you will have to have to use fiber instead of cat5 from the DMARC to the state router and switch.
In summary: Please do a site survey with the local telecommunications company, superintendent and technical coordinator, so that the fiber which will provide the 10Mb Fast Ethernet connection is placed in the room where the state router and switch are located if possible.
If you have any questions, please contact the BIT/DDN Support group.

Tricky Two-Year-Old
Sarah Keeter
West Covina CA USA
From: NEW BEGINNINGS, Vol. 20 No. 3, May-June 2003, p. 99
I had just finished nursing six-month-old Cecilia. It was one of those long, drawn-out nursing sessions where she was fighting sleep. Eventually, she succumbed to the urge and started counting sheep. I gingerly eased her into the bouncy seat and settled back on the couch to watch a little television.
Two-year-old Abigail came up to the couch, climbed in my lap and stated her simple request, "Nin-nin."
Feeling a little touched-out, I patted her back and said, "You can nurse after lunch, Honey."
Appearing satisfied with that answer, she asked, "Baby Beh?"
"Yes, you can go get your Baby Bear."
She toddled off, and I heard her rummaging through the bins in our living room play area. She came back with Baby Bear and climbed back up on the couch. She sat there by my feet for a few seconds, watching the television. Then, she looked over her shoulder at me and said, "Beh nin-nin?"
"Go ahead and nurse your bear."
She lifted her shirt and settled into that far-away-peaceful expression that often takes over a mother's face while nursing. A minute or two later, she handed Baby Bear to me, stating, "Nin-nin beh."
"You want me to nurse the bear?"
"Okay," I said, as I settled Baby Bear in my arms.
"No, ert uh," she insisted as she took the bear from me. Sighing, I lifted my shirt. But evidently that wasn't good enough. She pointed at my bra and grunted.
"You want me to open my bra too?"
So I opened the nursing flap on my bra and reached for the bear again. My tricky two-year-old took the opportunity to dive in and latch herself on while tossing poor Baby Bear over her shoulder. I'm still giggling over the way she planned it out.

Beitske Visser's experience at the WSK Euro Series has been very gratifying for her. During the four rounds of the Series, she raced against the best drivers in the world and was often the fastest on the track. This was again the case in Spain, at the end of July, with two finals concluded with a 4th and a 6th place. These performances allowed her to climb to 9th in the KZ1 Championship classification, preceding several top seeds...
Beitske Visser came to the Zuera circuit determined to claim a podium at the last round of the WSK Euro Series 2011 and the Dutch female karter had certainly the technical, mental and physical skills to fulfil her goal. At the wheel of her Intrepid-Praga motorised by TM-Tecsav, Beitske lived an exciting weekend, as she explains...
"I had just the time to finish preparing my equipment and I started a bit late in the timed qualifying session, so I could only set two fast laps. But despite all this, I claimed sixth place, which was pretty encouraging. But during the races, I never managed to make a good start. Due to the heat, there was a lot of tyre rubber on the track, and on the start grid the chassis were literally glued to the ground! When I let the clutch up, the kart moved with some difficulty. So I lost a few places in the first heat finishing seventh, though things went better in the following heat, with a second place. In Final 1, I had again a difficult start and was fairly satisfied to climb through from tenth, where I was on the first lap, to fourth (third in KZ1). I was also the fastest on the track but the three leaders had opened up too big a gap for me to bridge".
"On Sunday, I finally made a good start on the first heat. But since I started a fraction of second too early, I was handled a 10 second penalty - I had arrived first with the fastest lap in the race", Beitske regretted. Forced to start from 12th, she brilliantly passed several competitors and moved up to 4th, again with the fastest lap time in the race. Just 11th in the combined classification of the two heats, she showed all her talent again and climbed to 6th. She did not make it to the podium but her extremely high level of competitiveness and her great fighting spirit bode well for the World Cup for KZ1, the major appointment of the 2011 season to be held in Belgium in September.
