Va. Tech Councils Face Fundraising Shortfall
by Myra Thomas December 20, 2013 2 min read
Shortfalls in fundraising are prompting a Virginia-based economic development organization and a related technology council to merge. The News & Advance is reporting that two of the six partner organizations in the Region 2000 Partnership—the Economic Development and Technology Councils—have announced plans to "combine missions, redistribute priorities and consolidate support staff."
The Center for Advanced Engineering and Research, also part of the Region 2000 Partnership, is slated to become an independent organization and break off from the group in about five years, said the paper.
The move comes at a time when budget cutbacks and fundraising shortfalls are common for economic development and technology councils across the country. "The amount identified as needed to support the partner organization was $184,000 more than expected to be available in 2014," according to the transition plan.
The outgoing executive director of the EDC, Bryan David, blamed the recession for the fundraising gap. He pointed to similar restructuring efforts at other organizations, adding that "it's Region 2000's turn."
Staff support for economic development and technology initiatives will be combined to improve services and efficiency. The newly created Business and Economic Development Alliance will take over and redistribute the duties of the Tech Council and the EDC. The Tech Council will maintain its own board, as will the new Alliance, but the groups will work together to facilitate business investment, job growth and promote both the technology community and the greater integration of technology into area businesses.
According to the paper, the change will eliminate the positions of EDC executive director, Tech Council executive director and communications officer. Bryan David, executive director of the EDC, and Jonathan Whitt, executive director of the Tech Council, announced plans to leave Region 2000 at the end of the year. Communications Officer Catherine Mosley left at the beginning of December. The executive committee of the Alliance Board will hire a chief executive officer.
"I really think if Region 2000 can get this right, and I have every confidence that it can…that Region 2000 will continue to serve this region well," said David, in a statement.

Tiger Woods hit a shot he thought would lead to his 15th major. Keegan Bradley made a putt he thought would be worth a trip to the Tour Championship.
Just about every player has one shot that stands out above the rest in 2018.
"For how I viewed it at the time — this is in the moment — the shot I hit down 10 at The Open Championship out of that bunker," Woods said.
He was talking about the final round at Carnoustie, his ball in a fairway bunker with a burn between him and the green. Woods considered his pitching wedge one of those all-or-nothing moments. If it hits the lip of the bunker, he loses. If he pulls it off, he's going to win.
He pulled it off — and tied for sixth.
"There are moments in a tournament where you know this is the shot that's going to win or lose the event," he said. "Unfortunately, I didn't win it, but at the time to know it and pull it off, that gave me a lot of confidence going forward, to be honest with you."
Justin Thomas considered a pair of wedges before settling on a lob wedge on the 72nd hole at the Honda Classic that he hit to a foot for birdie that got him into a playoff. He holed a gap wedge for eagle on the 72nd hole in Mexico City that ultimately got him into a playoff, but Thomas wasn't in the last group. And he wound up losing in the playoff, anyway, so the nod goes to the Honda Classic.
Tony Finau says his was a 5-iron on the 17th hole in the final round at the Masters for his sixth consecutive birdie. This wasn't an ordinary birdie.
"I missed it in the right trees and it kicked back about 40 yards," he said. "I had a 190-yard shot and I had like a 60- to 70-yard slice, and I hit it to about 3 feet. I missed about a 12-footer on 18 to make seven birdies in a row (the Masters record). To be able to finish that way at Augusta was really cool, and that shot is the one that stuck out of all the birdies that I made."
He made a 7-foot par putt on the final hole Saturday in the BMW Championship, and that meant everything. With so much rain in the forecast, it looked as though the tournament could be cut short to 54 holes. The par putt meant Bradley was alone in sixth place, and with no more golf, that would give him enough points to finish in the top 30 in the FedEx Cup and get to East Lake. Miss it, and he would fall into a five-way tie for sixth.
"I knew in my head this was the last putt, and I had to make it to get into the Tour Championship," he said. "That was a good feeling when it went in."
Alas, the fourth round was played Monday. Bradley wound up winning for the first time in six years. He'll be in Maui next week for the Tournament of Champions.
Don't be surprised to hear these words at the Sony Open: "Now on the tee, from Slovakia, Rory Sabbatini."
The South African-born Sabbatini last week became an official citizen of Slovakia, according to Slovak newspapers SME and Novy Cas. Sabbatini's wife, Martina Stofanikova, is from Slovakia.
The Slovak Golf Association says it is sending proof of citizenship to the International Golf Federation, which would allow the 42-year-old Sabbatini to play under the Slovak flag. It also would make him eligible to play for the Eastern European country in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
Sabbatini is No. 203 in the world ranking. The Olympics takes no more than two players from each country — four if they are among the top 15 — until the field size is at 60 players. Currently, the No. 60 player in the Olympic ranking is Daan Huizing, who is No. 340 in the world ranking.
"I believe that I will be successful for Slovak golf and will be a source of inspiration for Slovak youth," Sabbatini said Wednesday at the Consulate General of the Slovak Republic in New York.
Rastislav Antal, vice president of the Slovak Golf Association, said he was proud that Slovakia will have its first PGA Tour player. Sabbatini is fully exempt from finishing 97th in the FedEx Cup last year.
"We believe that Rory will be able to achieve successful results for Slovak golf and can raise the interest of our public and our children to become actively interested in golfing," Antal said.
The European Tour was at its strongest in the weeks leading to the only major championship not on American soil. Otherwise, the gap widened again in world ranking points distributed to the winners on the PGA Tour and European Tour.
PGA Tour events in 2018 offered an average of just under 57 points to the winner, compared with 41.3 points to European Tour events. That's an average difference of 15.7 points, up from 15.1 points a year ago.
Throw out the four majors and the four World Golf Championships that are part of both tours' official schedule, and the gap gets wider.
The PGA Tour offered an average of 50.4 world ranking points for its regular events (not including opposite-field tournaments). That's more than all but three European Tour events — Abu Dhabi, the BMW PGA Championship and the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai. It's worth noting that the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth is a flagship event and automatically gets 64 points, though it had a weaker field than Colonial the same week, and was more on line with the Sony Open or Canadian Open.
The European Tour average, minus the majors and WGCs, was 31.73 points for the winner. The PGA Tour had only three tournaments that offered fewer than 32 points to the winner — the John Deere Classic, Safeway Open and RSM Classic at Sea Island.
Europe had seven tournaments that offered more world ranking points that week than the PGA Tour, three of them in the summer between the U.S. Open and the British Open — the French Open, Irish Open and Scottish Open.
One big setback for the European Tour was when two PGA Tour fall events, Las Vegas and Mayakoba, had stronger fields than the Turkish Airlines Open and Nedbank Challenge, part of the Rolex Series that leads to the Race to Dubai conclusion.
Meanwhile, the eight Rolex Series events offered an average of 45 world ranking points to the winner, down from an average of 48 points a year ago.
Eddie Pepperell at No. 35 is the highest-ranked player who is not a PGA Tour member.

Now part of Monmouth University since 1956 and known as Woodrow Wilson Hall, this structure was originally known as "Shadow Lawn." President Wilson stayed here during his campaign in the summer of 1916. The original structure was built on Joseph Benedict Greenhut's estate property. In 1927 Shadow Lawn burned in a fire, but was rebuilt by Hubert Templeton Parson, President of F.W. Woolworth Co, for his private residence. In 1982 the movie adaption of "Annie" was filmed at the site.

This Malaysian Nasi Goreng Is Crazy Delicious!
We love Malaysian food and we love nasi goreng, so we were pretty dang excited when we caught wind of this Malaysian nasi goreng recipe from The Wandering Matilda. This gal has spent a lot of time hopping around Asia, so she knows her shizz when it comes to Asian eats, and it sure does show in this recipe.
If you don't have dinner plans tonight, you know what to do.
Start by putting your rice on. Once it is cooked, leave aside—uncovered, to cool.
While that's cooking, combine the sriracha, kecap manis, soy and sesame oil in a cup then leave aside.
Make sure all your chicken, veg and herbs are chopped and ready to go then heat a little oil in a wok and over a super high heat, fry off the onion, garlic and chilli.
After 2 minutes, add the chicken and cook through. Stir in beans, cabbage, spring onion, coriander and sprouts, then the cooked rice.
Push the rice to one side then crack the eggs in the wok. Mix the yolks through and using your utensil, work the eggs until they scramble. Pour the sauce mixture over the rice then fully combine with the egg. Et Voila!
Want more Asian goodness? Make these sticky pork noodle bowls and win at life.


Smithe Redwoods State Reserve ?
We wanted to hike one last county during our spring break week in the coastal redwoods of northern California, and Mendocino County made the most sense. Looking at the map, it appeared that we would drive right by Smithe Redwoods State Reserve on our way back to Roseville. After looking online, the park seemed like a perfect place for one last hike through a redwood grove.
Not trusting the map alone, I decided to use GPS to guide us to the park. When we arrived according to my GPS, an unsigned side road led into the redwoods. However, it was completely blocked by a temporary orange fence. The road didn't have any signs and the traditional sign announcing the State Reserve was also missing.
There was a small unmarked parking area not far from what would appear to be the entrance to the Smithe Redwoods and we pulled over to consider our options. Both the map and GPS said we were at the right spot, but the reserve's website didn't say anything about the park being closed for any reason. It was too late to research another plan (Lisa was waiting at home with everything needed to color our Easter Eggs), so we decided to go off trail and hike through the redwood forest in front of us that was calling our names.
It was the right decision since we didn't see any "No Trespassing" signs because we had the grove all to ourselves. I've written before that hiking through redwoods is one of the best places to push Kellisa because of the total lack of roots, rocks, and undergrowth. It's a pushiking dream! In fact, Laurel pushed Kellisa from start to finish on our hike.

Pu'u Keahi a Kahoe
Pu'u Keahi a Kahoe is the fourth most prominent summit in the Koolau Range and a P1K. The shortest and easiest route to reach it is via the Haiku Stairs, or Stairway to Heaven, a set of steel stairs and railings that climb steeply up the east side from a neighborhood off the H3 freeway. The route was used by the US government to reach a radar installation at the summit but has long fallen into disuse. Unfortunately the route is off-limits to the public, though even with a guard watching much of the day, a few intrepid souls slip through its defences. I didn't want to bother with the hit or miss aspect of this effort, especially if another route is available, even if longer. Just such a route is decribed by Stewart Ball Jr. in his book, The Hikers Guide to O'ahu. There are two possible ridges that can be climbed out of Moanalua Valley (also called Kamananui Valley) from the west and I decided to make a loop of it by going up one ridge and down the other.
There were several cars at the locked gate of Maunalua Valley Park at the end of the road, waiting for it to open. Signs said the park was open at 7a, but it was just before 6a. I parked outside the park, but the ladies knew what they were doing. Another car drove up, unlocked the gate, and soon half a dozen cars were in the lot. The ladies all appeared to be Japanese seniors, the delightful hike up Moanalua Valley their regular workout. One of them took off at a steady pace in front of the others, the remaining ladies traveling in small groups of 3-4, chatting it up as they took a more leisurely hike. I passed by most of the leisure crowd, but the one hustling up the road out in front I never caught up to.
One of the valley's wealthy owners built a series of seven stone bridges across the normally dry Maunalua Stream more than 100yrs ago. They are still serviceable by foot and bike traffic, adding rustic charm to the lush valley. A set of signs along the route describe the flora found here, including invasive alien species, those introduced by the first polynesians and endemic Hawaiian ones. Other signs told of the valley's history over many centuries. I saved the reading of these for the return trip when I was significantly more tired and welcomed the short respites.
At a post numbered "12", about 1.6mi from the start, is found the unsigned right turn to start climbing out of the valley. The easy hiking officially ends here as the narrow trail climbs steeply through dense koa forests and other types of trees and shrubs as it makes its way up to Kauakaulani Ridge. Once this ridge leading up to the main crest is reached, things get progressively better. The views open up to both valleys on either side of the ridge, behind to the urban areas along the coast, and ahead to the center of the Koolau Range. Ominous clouds that had overshadowed the range at daybreak were not so threatening now. The summits of the crest were still hidden by clouds, but the cloud layers was slowly rising as the day began to warm. A good stiff breeze was also felt now sweeping over the ridge, a welcome bit of cooling after the steep, sweaty climb out of the valley.
It had taken about an hour to reach Kauakaulani Ridge and would take several more hours to make the excursion to the main crest. It was a delightful hike along the narrow ridge, often only a few feet wide and dropping precipitiously on two sides. There were some handy ropes set up to help with the steepest portions that could be quite slick when wet (this morning the trail conditions were quite good), as well as some fixed lines along the longer stretches where the ridge is narrowest. Before reaching the crest the clouds would lift to just above the tops of the summits, and while I was exploring along the crest I found myself right at the bottom edge of the clouds, sometimes below, sometimes just inside. The highest summit in the area, Keahiakahoe, was to the left (north), its top just visible. Instead of heading there, I turned right to pay a visit to a bonus summit, Kahuauli about 1/5mi to the south.
The traverse to this subsidiary summit was interesting on several accounts. Not part of the regular loop described by Ball, this portion was much less traveled, though a trail was still discernable. In fact the Summit Trail runs the entire length of the Koolau Range, an amazing bit of breathtaking (and breath taking away) hiking up and down the sawtoothed range's crest line. Part of this I had traveled yesterday on my failed effort to Lanihuli. The section I traveled today was not as severe as yesterday's, but it was still unnerving. The windward side drops dramatically, sweeping down to the Kailua coastal area almost 3,000ft below. Cars could be heard and seen buzzing along the highways like toy cars. The trail was overgrown, making it difficult to see the ground where I placed my feet through the ferns and other overgrowth. And there were no secured hand lines to add confidence. I took about 20min to cover the distance, and then a similar amount to return.
Things returned to a more secure footing at this point. Turning left towards Keahiakehoe, there were two tall transmission towers at two saddles along the route. Fixed lines had been added to the whole section between the towers (I wonder if they were installed by the power company?), making this traverse going much more easily. The tread was better defined and the footing more certain, even with some muddy and slick sections. Upon climbing up to the highpoint of Keahiakehoe, I found a benchmark and a small wooden sign showing where to find the descent ridge. My GPS showed Keahiakehoe actually about a 1/6mi further north along the ridge where I could see the old radar installation. It was obviously lower, but seemed worth a visit, so off I went. This was an easier traverse taking less than ten minutes, mainly because there were no low saddles to drop to along the way.
At the graffiti-riddled radar installation I found the Haiku Stairs dropping down to the northeast. I hiked down a short ways to check them out and take in the stunning views they offered, particularly of the northern part of the Koolau Range north of the massive H3 tunnels. After snapping some photos, I hiked back up the stairs, then back to the highpoint and finally started down the middle ridge of Kamananui Valley. I found this ridge better than the ascent one, both for views and better footing. There were a couple of ropes on a few steep sections, but these were relatively easy. About ten minutes below the summit I spotted a party of five coming up the ridge. In their 20s, the party consisted of two ladies and three guys. The ladies were out front leading the way, the guys pulling up the rear. As I met up with, and passed them, I found that two of the guys were struggling with the exposure. I found this somewhat amusing, imaging the ladies taking the guys on the challenging route to test whether they were boyfriend material. Probably nothing of the sort, but it amused me nonetheless.
I continued down the ridge at a brisk pace - ok, not all that brisk since the ridge still demanded diligence with big air to fly into if one trips up. Eventually I ended up down in the valley bottom once more and on the rough road I had started in on. I still had two and a half miles to get back to the car, taking longer because of the signs I stopped to read and ponder. It was almost 12:30p by the time I returned to the park and the car, making for a 6.5hr outing, covering some 11.5mi. I had to admit I was a bit tired...
Koko Head
Tired as I might be, it was still too early to call it a day and head back to the hotel in Waikiki. I decided to go check out Koko Head again, a minor summit on the south shore east of Waikiki that I had explored a few days earlier. As I drove by the entrance to Hanauma Bay, I noted a couple of folks with official-looking shirts and hats monitoring the obvious starting point to Koko Head at SR72. The summit has an FAA VOR station and some other government installations and seems to be unwelcoming to visitors. I decided to drive around the neighborhoods on the west side of the summit and got incredibly lucky. Near the southwest end of the summit, I found a cul-de-sac with an old public-access stairway leading down to some cliffs overlooking the ocean. A series of old railings and ladders, most disassembled, once allowed folks to reach the water here. It seems incredibly dangerous with waves crashing hard against the rock cliffs, and probably why it fell into disuse. Still, plenty of folks seem to know about it and there were folks coming and going while I was there.
Of course I didn't want to get to the ocean, but rather up to Koko Head. Through continuing strokes of good fortune, I was able to walk east along the tops of the cliffs and just below some neighborhood homes (very high-end homes, these) to the south side of Koko Head where I could then turn uphill. A few ropes were even installed to help with a few steep sections (no more than class 3 and not that needed when dry). Almost before I knew it I had reached the summit installations only 1/3mi away. Such good luck! I walked around the summit to get pictures of Hanauma Bay, the VOR station, and Diamond Head/Waikiki. When I returned back down to the coastal cliffs there was a different set of folks there. Some had just come to look, others to fish in the surf, but all to get away from the usual hustle that is the south coast of Oahu...

Q: Finding set with equal-size intersection given a set family I'm wondering if there are any non-trivial sufficient conditions (or even just a google-search-friendly name for) for the following scenario:
I am given a set family $\mathcal{F}$  on ground set $E$ (such that each $F \in \mathcal{F}$ has $F \subseteq E$), such that $\bigcap_{F\in \mathcal{F}} F = \emptyset$. I want to find some $U \subsetneq E$ such that for some integer $m$, $|U \cap F| = m > 0$ for every $F \in \mathcal{F}$.
Obviously this is not always possible; I am looking for conditions on $\mathcal{F}$ to guarantee existence of some such $U$.
Some additional assumptions I can make about $\mathcal{F}$ include:

*

*$\mathcal{F}$ is a Sperner family

*$\emptyset \notin \cal{F}$.

*Let $ \cal{I}$ be the downward closure of $\cal{F}$ (all subsets of each $F \in \cal{F}$, including $F$ itself). Suppose I have $F_1, F_2 \in \cal{F}$ and $I_1, I_2 \in \cal{I}$. If the multiset union $F_1 \uplus F_2 = I_1 \uplus I_2$, then $I_1, I_2 \in \cal{F}$.

Renewme Skin Clinic: Are you ready for the summer? Get laser hair removal at Renewme!
Are you ready for the summer? Get laser hair removal at Renewme!
Hello, we are Renewme Skin Clinic. The weather is getting warmer and warmer. When you pass by the road, there are many women who are wearing skin colored stocking. If you want to take out black colored stoking, there is something embarrassing, hair on the legs.
Most women are worrying about hair on their body. They are wondering which treatment and methods are the best to remove them. How are you treating? Which treatment do you think that is more effective? Shaving machine? Shaving cream? Tape? There are many methods to treat hair; the best way is to remove it by Laser Hair Removal. That is safe and effective than other treatment.
Today, why is the Laser hair removal is more safe and effective method among other treatment? We are talking which treatment is more effective to remove it.
Here are waxing cream, Waxing tape, Hair Root removal, Shaving, and razor. To check which treatment is best for hair removal, we tried to remove hair from each method.
First, this is hair root remover. This is hair root remover which helps hair to remove at home by themselves, but it's really painful and it's not completely removed at all, so you can have remained hair on the body. Also, it tales for a long time and you need to care after one trial.
Second, this is razor for hair removal. This is easy to remove and easy hands with disposable shaving. Normally, people use razor when they take a shower, so it takes short time than the hair root removal. But, it's not longer lasting depends on how the hair it is. Also, you can have wounds from the razor. You can easily see the legs with the bandage if you remove hardly.
Third, this is shaving cream using with sponge and methods. It's so easy and convenient to remove in only 10 Minutes. We put the cream and leave it for 10 minutes. Then we can wipe the cream out. It's safe to protect the skin with less damage. But, it's strong ingredient to melt the hair on the body. So, people could have eczema, redness and even dryness after using shaving cream.
Last, this is Waxing tape. This is easy and takes little short time because you just attached the tape on the treated area. But, it's really painful when the tape wiped out. It caused to outer skin damage on the treated area with redness and dryness.
All 4 treatments are effective temporary. When time goes, the hair comes out again to grow their hair on the body. So, we need to keep remove continuously. If you do keep treating, the skin has damage like redness, eczema and even skin diseases from cream, tape and razor.
We recommend the laser hair removal from Renewme.
the mole it is. So, it's better to check how your hair it is and how the laser works.
After checking the skin, he will do laser for few minutes for the treated area.
You need more than 1 session and keep having a laser for few months because the hair is not removed by 1 session from the laser. We need to keep beaming the laser for hair root removal. Laser Hair removal is that the laser is beamed to the root of hair and the laser helps the hair destroy for not growing the hair anymore.
Laser Hair removal helps the shape of hair to destroy and it's safe and not affected to the skin at all. If you have laser hair removal continuously, it shows effective results permanently. We recommend more than 5 sessions for hair removal.
Men also can have Laser hair removal at Renewme Skin clinic.
Most men need to have laser hair removal every morning. They need to shave the hair every day and they might have skin disease and infection from hair removal.
Upcoming Spring, More healthy and beautiful!

So many clients come to me as a book or marketing coach telling me how they spent and wasted a lot of money and time following different well-known gurus in the book and publicity fields.
A recent client, Debbie, already got her books printed--over 900 left to sell from the 1000 at too much cost. She's discouraged and now doesn't have much money to promote her masterpiece. Too bad she didn't consult with a professional book coach with 20 plus years experience who could save her mistakes learned from pros who don't have the best interests of the unknown authors with limited resources at heart..
The traditional path is not the path for all of us.
Think self-publishing. Think Print on Demand, but be careful.
The Book Coach Says...If you are a new author looking for printing/publishing direction, check out the best Print on Demand Printer/Publisher at www.deharts.com.
Many of my clients who use them are happy with the results. They give the author total control over the book and only print what you need. They also don't offer phony marketing promises. Many other POD companies who take only $600 up front, but over price your book. While they list your book on their site, they do not offer any promotion to it. The author still has to promote the book. .
At Deharts 200 books may cost you $4-$5 each. That's only $800 plus instead of the whopping price (even though discounted) of $3000 for 1000 copies. You need that other money for learning marketing and promotion tips from a book coach who has great marketing success. When you spend too much on printing, that leaves little marketing dollars--the most important part of your book project.
If you plan to sell your book at the back of the room after a talk, then print only as many as you will use in 4 months. That may be as little as 100 copies. The rest of your promotion is nearly free when you learn online promotion such as writing tips and articles to submit to online no spam ezines.
Another tip from your coach is to get a reasonably priced person who can edit, design and format your chapters, put your book into PDF so you can sell on the internet and create a printed version from the same file, and submit it for you to a quality POD company like Deharts.
Save yourself many dollars from book writing, publishing and marketing mistakes. Use a qualified book coach.


Shahraan is an indirect Quranic name for boys that means "moon-like", famous, and the period of two lunar months. It is derived from the Sh-H-R root (fame, moon, month) which is used in many places in the Quran.
Shahraan is also the name of a pre-Islamic Arab ancestor and to him belongs the Shahraan tribe, one of the largest Arab tribes. There are many Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah upon him and his companions, who come from this tribe.
Shahraan is also the name of a Persian nobleman who lived at the time of Yazdegerd III (the last Sasanian Emperor, before the Persian Empire was conquered by the Muslims) under the command of Mahuy Suri, the governor of Merv in modern day Turkmenistan, as is mentioned in the Shahnameh of Firdousi.
Can anyone tell me "Shahraan" name is appropriate for the Muslims baby, as above the meaning mentioned is "the period of two lunar months". What does it exactly means? Is it OK that we can keep our baby name.
Yes you can my name is mr shahran uddin.

High school students retake AP tests after school mix-up destroyed them
Sep 27, 2022, 10:39 PM | Updated: Sep 28, 2022, 11:19 am
BY DEBBIE WORTHEN
NORTH LOGAN, Utah — Two dozen Green Canyon High School students in North Logan won't get the credit for their AP tests as they were mistakenly destroyed in transit.
When students take the college-level tests, there is a strict protocol it is one that the district and students follow, but through confusion between Educational Testing Services and the shipping company, the tests were marked as "hazardous materials," and by the time ETS responded, it was too late.
The students received a message in their email this summer they had two options, get a $75 reimbursement for the testing fee or retake the test.
Cache County School District and the students do not feel those are acceptable options considering many of the students are unable to take the test, and the cost of a college course is roughly a thousand dollars.
Zachary Crane took AP statistics last year, along with AP biology. In May, he was more than ready for the stats test.
"I took three practice tests for ap stats, I got a four the first time, then two fives," Crane said. "So I was expecting a 4-5 range for AP stats."
He is one of only five students that opted to retake the test. Gabriella Arnold is another.
"I honestly think that they should compensate us with at least giving us a score," Arnold said.
She said she spent countless hours studying for AP stats and now doesn't feel prepared for the retest, although she will.
Jennifer Hartman is the school counselor and the AP coordinator. She's worked with students on AP courses for 12 years. She was frustrated by the flippant attitude toward the students' hard work. She started making calls, hoping the tests weren't really destroyed.
"When I spoke to them, they said, 'Hey, the box of materials was destroyed," Hartman said.
The shipping company told Hartman they contacted ETS, asking them to fill out a form confirming the box was just filled with paper. But, according to them, ETS filled out the wrong form, so the box was destroyed.
The students want ETS or the shipping company to pay for damages, including tuition reimbursement for the classes they'll likely have to retake once they graduate.
"I'd love an apology first of all. And accountability too," Crane told KSLTV. "They're a big old corporation with money to spare for a couple of lowly students from Logan, Utah."

Help is available, officials stress after Parkland suicides
School districts urges students, staff to make use of crisis center, counselors
PARKLAND, Fla. – After the two suicides in less than week, Broward County school district officials are reminding students and staffers at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School about resources that can help those struggling with the trauma of last year's mass shooting.
A 15-year-old student died over the weekend and days earlier, 19-year-old Sydney Aiello, a recent graduate, took her own life. Aiello's mother said her daughter suffered from survivor's guilt.
"They are feeling in pain and are questioning their own existence. They are wondering why they got to live and these other kids didn't," said Dr. Dara Bushman, a clinical psychologist.
Bushman has treated two dozen students, parents and other members of the Parkland community after the school shooting that claimed 17 lives.
"They were in the same place at the same time and they don't understand it," Bushman said.
There are resources available for Stoneman Douglas survivors, one just minutes away from the school at the Pine Trails Park Amphitheater -- the Broward County Resiliency Center. There is also Eagles' Haven, a wellness center, in Coral Springs. The Eagles' Haven opened its doors a week early in light of these two deaths.
Officials will also host a town hall on suicide prevention at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Coral Spring City Hall.
"We do know statistically that following (school) shootings, we will lose more victims to suicide than we did to the gun shooting. And that was before we had social media," said Sarah Franco, executive director of JAFCO, a nonprofit agency that provides services to children dealing with trauma.
The center hosted an emergency meeting Sunday night, giving parents information about how to talk to their children about suicide and spot the warning signs.
"That conversation has to happen as hard as it is, because it is possible that those conversations could help save a child," Franco said.

If you own a Cadillac XLR-V and have a Service Stabilitrak, Traction system off, message or TCS light is on, this article may help you.
GM has issued a service bulletin for the 2006 Cadillac XLR-V 2006 and 2007-08 built before Sept 1, 2007. These vehicles may display a Service Stabilitrak, Traction system off, message or TCS light is on. The messages may be intermittent or on full time. In addition to the messages and lights, the computer may store a C0561 trouble code.
The problem may be caused by the electronic brake control module (EBCM) incorrectly receiving and processing the brake pedal position rolling count signal, transmitted from the body control module. Do NOT replace parts. The fix is a software update. Have the dealer or shop install an updated calibration file.

Be an optimist. Otherwise you'll piss off Henry Ward Beecher, an who wants that to happen?
The cynic is one who never sees a good quality in a man, and never fails to see a bad one.
He is the human owl, vigilant in darkness and blind to light, mousing for vermin, and never seeing noble game.
By DEBBY APPLEGATE
The Reverend Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887) was the most popular and controversial Christian minister in the United States for more than three decades, from the 1850s through the 1880s. A notoriously paradoxical figure, Beecher was famous both for both his warmhearted liberal theology, which he dubbed "The Doctrine of Love," and his fiery public crusades. As he liked to joke, "I am a peace-man, except when I wish to fight."
Beecher earned international notoriety as a "political preacher" in the tempestuous decade prior to the American Civil War. He was a flamboyant antislavery activist, an early champion of the fledgling Republican Party, and an outspoken supporter of the war against the Confederacy, at a time when all of these stands were extremely contentious. In an era when many Christians believed the Old Testament sanctioned race-based slavery, he showed how the New Testament could be interpreted as repudiating human bondage. Along with his sister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of the bestselling novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, Beecher convinced thousands of Americans that the antislavery movement was both godly and socially respectable.
Beecher's influence extended far beyond religious and political matters. His irreverent and often iconoclastic opinions on science, psychology, art, entertainment, and popular culture helped liberate Americans from stifling prejudices and outworn conventions, and usher in modern patterns of thought. As one admirer wrote after his death in 1887, "Abraham Lincoln emancipated men's bodies; Henry Ward Beecher emancipated their minds.
The one delivered them from injustice; the other, from superstition."
But Beecher's reputation as both a preacher and a pundit was nearly eclipsed in 1872 when he was accused of seducing one of his church parishioners. For two years, the scandal dominated the press and public conversation. For both his fans and foes, the question of his guilt became a national referendum on all that Beecher had ever said or symbolized. "We can recall no one event since the murder of Lincoln that has so moved the people as this question whether Henry Ward Beecher is the basest of men," declared the New York Herald in summer of 1874.
Henry Ward Beecher was born June 24, 1813, in Litchfield, Connecticut. His father Lyman Beecher (1775-1863) was Connecticut's most prominent Congregational preacher, at a time when the Nutmeg State was one of the country's last remaining theocracies, in which every household was taxed to support of the state-sanctioned Congregationalist Church. Nationally, Lyman was famous as the last of the great Puritan preachers, a fierce promoter of religious revivals, a staunch defender of Calvinist theology, and a pioneering moral reformer and activist. But Lyman Beecher's greatest claim to notoriety was as "the father of more brains than anyone in America."
Lyman instilled all eleven of his children with his sense of divine mission. All seven of Lyman's sons became ministers and three of his daughters became renowned public reformers. As the eighth born child, Henry was often intimidated by his brilliant, ambitious siblings and his demanding father. Although Henry adored Lyman, he felt deeply scarred by what he saw as his father's harsh theology and his high expectations. As Henry later lamented, "I supposed myself to be a sinner in the very fact that I did not feel sinful."
In 1826, Lyman moved the family to Boston, Massachusetts to fight the rise of religious liberalism in the City of Pilgrims. After a rebellious year attending the Boston Latin School, Henry was sent to finish high school at the Mount Pleasant Classical Institute in rural Amherst, Massachusetts.
Henry entered nearby Amherst College in 1830. It was the peak of the Christian revival movement later known as the Second Great Awakening, as well as a time of tremendous intellectual ferment on college campuses. Although a careless student in the classroom, Henry was captivated by the Romantic literature flooding in from Europe and the new popular craze for science. He learned from both the unorthodox principle that no idea is too sacred to test against practical experience. Like most of the Beechers, he was also a passionate supporter of the many idealistic reform movements that promised to bring a new moral order to America.
After graduating in 1834, Henry followed his family to Cincinnati, Ohio, the booming capital of the West, where Lyman was appointed president of the newly established Lane Theological Seminary. (Following ecclesiastical tradition, the Beechers preached in Presbyterian rather than Congregational churches when they lived in the West.)
While studying for the ministry, Henry became embroiled in the increasingly contentious battles over slavery. In 1834, Lane Seminary split bitterly over the question of whether slavery should be immediately abolished. Then in the summer of 1836, anti-abolitionist rioters swept through Cincinnati attacking blacks and white abolitionists. Despite – or perhaps because of -- these traumatic events, in these early years Henry, like the rest of his family, took a cautious stance on the slavery question. He condemned human bondage as a sin but was reluctant to embrace the radical social and political changes – and the violence -- that abolition would bring.
Henry's first pastorate was in the rough river town of Lawrenceburgh, Indiana, where he married Eunice Bullard, his college sweetheart from Sutton, Massachusetts. Eunice went on to give birth to ten children, only four of whom survived to adulthood. In 1839 he moved to a new church in the fledgling state capital of Indianapolis.
Henry thrived on the western frontier, with its easy manners, wide-open opportunities and unashamed pursuit of happiness. Preaching constantly in log-cabins and raucous open-air camp revival meetings, he shook off his stiff Yankee training, developing an emotional, melodramatic style all his own. Soon, he found that the less he preached of his father's fire-and-brimstone theology and the more he spoke of Christ's unconditional love and forgiveness, the more people flocked to him. As his popularity grew and his religion beliefs grew less orthodox, his antislavery views gradually became bolder.
As his reputation rose in the west, Beecher began to attract attention back east. In 1847, when Beecher was 34, several wealthy New York businessmen recruited the promising young preacher to head a new Congregational church in the up-and-coming suburb of Brooklyn Heights, New York. Brooklyn was then known as "The City of Churches," but no one had ever seen a minister like Henry Ward Beecher, with his odd combination of western informality, eastern education and unabashed showmanship.
Beecher behaved more like a jovial farmer than a somber clergymen, without a trace of holier-than-thou. He shocked the city's Christians by making jokes from the pulpit, bringing flowers into the church, and inviting his congregation sing the hymns rather than hiring a profession choir, all common practices today. He blasted pretension and hypocrisy of all kinds, especially religious bigotry. "What is Orthodoxy?" thundered Beecher. "I will tell you. Orthodoxy is my doxy, and Heterodoxy is your doxy, that is if your doxy is not like my doxy."
Even more shocking to many Americans was what he called his all-forgiving "Doctrine of Love," which upended the dogmas of his childhood. (Opponents gleefully renamed it the "Gospel of Gush.") God, he insisted, was not an exacting judge, but a loving parent who wants his children to be happy here on earth as well as after death. "It is Love the world wants," Beecher proclaimed to startled audiences in the 1850s. "Higher than morality, higher than philanthropy, higher than worship, comes the love of God. That is the chiefest thing."
While carefully maintaining the mantle of the Protestant establishment, Beecher's thinking was increasingly influenced by the iconoclastic ideas of the Transcendentalists, with their emphasis on imagination over reason, spontaneity over formality, self-expression over social convention, and individual conscience over the rule of law.
Every now and then stop and reflect on this
Every now and then stop and reflect on this; the greatest moments of your life will consist of small, nameless moments that flash by.
Those are the ones you'll remember.
I have lived many years and I know that to be a true thing and if you're paying attention to your life, eventually, so will you.
Don't doubt yourself.
Don't doubt yourself. Self-doubt is dangerous and has killed more hopes and dreams, large and small, than failure ever has.
When in doubt, push on. Faith is doubt's brother.
Willpower and determination, especially when you don't know the answer, when you don't what's ahead, is the mark of a successful person because they strive on no matter how lost or confused they feel. They push on past past apathy, doubt or fear.
That's what a hero is. A regular person who who, in spite of weakness, doubt or not always moves ahead goes ahead and overcomes anyway.
When I was 17 years old I looked at my life
When I was 17 years old I looked at my life and this is what I saw; a high school drop who attended 8 grammar schools, raised in the foster care system, forced out to face the world with no means of support, no family and no money, in constant trouble with the cops.
That was what I saw and it didn't mean a damn thing because this is what I knew then and I know now; Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go nor what you are capable of accomplishing.
The only damn thing present circumstances are good for is let you know where you're starting point is. That's all. That's all it means.Circumstances don't determine what you're made of. You and the good Lord determine that.
The rest is up to you.
Be careful who you give an opportunity to.
Be careful who you give an opportunity to. Think it through before you do it because if they fail they will never, ever forgive you for it.

It is a great thing, a great thing, to believe in a dream when we are young.
It's also an easy thing to do.
But it is a far, far greater thing to believe in a dream when we are older. There is a certain bravado, a glory, in having spent our years fighting to fulfill that dream of our youth.
It doesn't matter if the dream comes to be.
What matters is never having given up the ability to see a better tomorrow because as you go through this life, more often then not, holding on to your dreams is a hell of a lot harder than you would think it to be.
I no longer a participate in organized religion nor am not a deeply religious person, yet I am careful never wander far from God because it's a dangerous thing to do.
All of us adore and obey. Think about it. Large parts of our lives are devoted to adore and obey. Both are pillars that make society work and they come naturally to us.
I believe that without having a higher power to adore and worship in my life, I would be in danger of creating other divinities, yet I know there is only one true God. Without having a higher power to adore and worship in my life I could fall prey to making my passions my lord and master.
These could happen not because I'm weak but because I'm human.
So, as I said, I never wander far from God in my life.

It is that need for control that makes even the best of us childlike.
It feeds our discontentment and makes us love and desire the things we don't have and probably don't need.
It is one of the core factors of evil in the world.
Be aware of it and it will be less likely to harm you.
The old Irish in New York had a saying "It's better to know the judge than the law" and in that vein, knowing the rules is a good thing, but knowing the exceptions to the rules is better.

This is how I feel when I have to stay in and work but I want to go out and go swimming.
Here is one key to happiness.
I love what I do.
I don't kinda sort like it. I love it. I love everything about it.
This is the only life you're going to get so don't spend it on boredom.
Keep your feet on the ground and use common sense, but find something you can throw yourself into. Find something you believe in, that you believe in with all of your heart and do that.
Here are the synonyms for the word Tenacity.
Persistence, determination, perseverance, doggedness, strength of purpose, tirelessness, indefatigability, resolution, resoluteness, resolve, firmness, patience, purposefulness, staunchness, steadfastness, staying power, endurance, stamina, stubbornness, intransigence, obstinacy, obduracy and pertinacity.
I grew up in foster care. I lived in a car when I was 17. I was educated late in life. At times I'm sort of dumb. I can be naïve. I don't catch on fast. Most of the time I don't have a friggin clue about what's going on. A lot of times, things have to be explained to me.
But I have never, not once, failed to achieve every goal I have set for myself.
Never have I failed in that mission.
And here's why; tenacity. Got knocked down a thousand times? Then get up a thousand and one.
Tenacity is the secret to my strength.

I worry..............
I worry about sin, I feel guilty over almost everything and I'm slightly neurotic…….but I don't worry about it. It's all the same thing with a different name and it comes from the fruit of the tree of knowledge. It's the price we pay for deciding to live a cognisant life. Only children and the unthinking are without guilt, sin and are seemingly normal.
Your success isn't hidden away in some place or in a different time
Your success isn't hidden away in some place or in a different time, a time to come or an opportunity that passed. Your success isn't a matter of your circumstances.
Your success is within you. It always was and it always will be.
It's okay if you didn't know that. You learn stuff as you go along.
(You're going to be fine, so be happy)
You are the answer
You are the answer. You decide if your world is a prison or a palace. The good Lord gave you, gave us all, that kind of power. What we do with it, what we create with it, is up to us.
...it's also very important to stop and goof off at least once a day.
John W. Tuohy John W. Tuohy, Litchfield Literary Books, LLR Books
Know yourself and be true to who and what you are.
Your success and your happiness in life are in direct proportion to your ability to accept the unvarnished truth about yourself.
(and remember to enjoy yourself)
Dumb move
How I feel when I finish a short story and I know its good.
How I feel when my wife tells me I have to shopping
....and remember to laugh while being fearless
Actually, going a few extra inches can change everything in your favor..............and remember to enjoy yourself because life is short
Live now. Live in the moment.
Live now. Live in the moment. Throw yourself in it. Drench yourself in every drop of now because now is where eternity is. Thoreau, God bless him, said it best "Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this." So live now. Live in the moment….and enjoy yourself too. That's the important part.
Quiet pleasures
Quiet pleasures seem to last longer and leave better memories because, I think, maybe we're just not made to bear the enormous burden of great joy.
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. [James 1:22]
I.E: Don't talk the talk and not walk the walk because then you're only lying to yourself.
Here is one sure, absolute way to fail in life; be untrue to the best you know.
Here is the way to lead a successful life. Always to the right thing. That means do what you know is right in your heart.
That's pretty much all there is to it.
Life is boring
Life is boring. Know that. And in knowing that, recognize your daily routine, as predictable
as it may be, is the true rhyme of life.
Understand that even in the hum-drum steps of daily life there is a kind of suspense in the story of living from day to day.
Always make yourself the hero of that story. It's a simple but noble and honorable goal.
The thing that frightens people is the new experience, the fear of facing what is different for the first time. And it's a universal fear.
Do it anyway.
But it won't be an easy path. It takes guts to live a life that is always evolving, to live a life that willfully goes to those places that are new and unknown, and to test our limits.
Strive to live that life and to hell with the risks. If you are true to your mission you will find that the risk that it takes to remain safe and unchallenged is more painful and costly than the risk you took to grow as a human being.
Success in life doesn't have a damn thing to do with the positions we reach or don't reach. Nor does it have anything to do with wealth or material goods.
Those earthly things are cheap because they are easily had. They are common place and usually held in high esteem by common people.
Be kind to yourself and measure you're success by the obstacles you had to overcome in this life.
Measure your success in how many times you wanted to give up the fight but didn't.
Measure your success in how far you have come along in the journey of trying to be a rational, decent human being.
Drive, determination, the refusal to quit in a worthy cause, decency. These things are not easily had and there is not any fortune on this earth that can match their value heavenly value.
A single day.
A bad day doesn't make or change your life any more than a good day does because the effect of a single day on our lives fluctuates. One day can make you feel stronger or wiser or better. The next moment or the next day can make you feel weak and drawn, even defeated. Things change. Don't worry about it. Examine the situation because our attitude has a lot to do with how we see things. Stay focused and take the day as it comes. You're going to be just fine.
Be an optimist. Otherwise you'll piss off Henry Wa...

Many of today's businesses maintain their own internal computer networks and e-mail servers. In order to maintain optimal system performance, both must be kept up-to-date as new technology becomes available and new software versions are released. Akimeka is preparing to perform a pair of upgrades to their corporate computer network: (1) update Active Directory (which sets up the network infrastructure) from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008, and (2) update their e-mail server from Exchange Server 2003 to Exchange Server 2010. Upgrades of this magnitude are first planned out and tested in a safe, isolated computing environment, or "lab," where accidents or mistakes will not pose a problem to the actual system. Hence, we started by creating a lab similar to Akimeka's current network structure and e-mail system, but on a much smaller scale, to use for simulating and testing the planned upgrades. Two servers were employed to set up the network, add users, and provide IP addresses for Internet access, and one server was used to house Exchange and allow e-mail to be sent back and forth. Research was conducted on strategies to upgrade the network and e-mail configurations without losing or negatively affecting the current setup. As the test upgrade progresses in the lab environment, problems that arise and their solutions are being documented, so that they might be later avoided or worked around. Finally, a documented plan for the upgrade will be prepared, based on the upgrade and tests performed in the lab environment. If the upgrades in the lab environment are successful, the documented plan will be used during the upgrade of the company's actual system later this year.

In defense of Mickey Callaway's first head scratching managerial move
by Brian Erni April 16, 2018 0 Comments
Through 14 games, Mickey Callaway, by and large, has looked like a genius. That doesn't mean every move has been golden though.
In the bottom of the 5th of Sunday's 3-2 victory, Callaway made a move that elicited some head scratching. With two outs and runners on second and third, Callaway pitch hit for Tomas Nido with Jay Bruce. Brewers acting manager Pat Murphy (serving in that role because of Craig Counsell's ejection) promptly issued an intentional pass to Bruce, which brought Syndergaard to the plate with the bases loaded. Thor popped up on his first pitch to end the inning.
Gary Cohen immediately called the move out for not making sense. And it looked especially bad when Noah was lifted after 5.1 innings and 101 pitches, only for the Brewers to take a 2-1 lead in the sixth. Brandon Nimmo's homer in the 6th, and Wilmer Flores' walk off in the 9th got Callaway off the hook, but just what was the manager thinking?
Here's my take on the thinking behind why Mickey did what he did:
Keeping Thor on the bump: Callaway obviously wanted to try to get Syndergaard through six innings. That would leave his bullpen with less work in the midst of a stretch of 10 straight games without an off day. And with the way Thor was throwing, it was certainly to try and keep him in the game.
Leaving Nido in wouldn't have changed the ultimate match up: In a close game where they were up just 1-0, the call ultimately came down to this: see if Nido could come through in one-or-two pitchers. Because even if Nido did hit, it's a spot where he would essentially be unintentionally-intentionally walked. That's to say, Brewers reliever Taylor Williams would probably throw a bunch of slop just outside the strike zone to try and get Nido to chase, knowing they could fall back on pitching to Syndergaard with the bases loaded. When this happens, you'll often see the pitcher fall behind 2-0 and just finish the intentional walk. That probably would have happened, and the Mets would have been in the exact same spot.
Clear the pitcher's spot: So if that's the case, why put Bruce up there, waste a bench player with a big bat, just to get the same spot you could have gotten with Nido at the plate? Because there's also a fairly high probability that Nido would get himself out in that spot. If he chases something out of the zone, then you have Syndergaard leading off the inning. So forcing the issue both clears the pitcher's spot in the order and allowed the Mets to start fresh in the 6th with the top of your order. Plus, it makes Williams execute with the bases loaded, where a walk or a hit by pitch could force in a run. It didn't help that Noah swung at the first pitch, though.
Yes, the Mets could have just double switched Jose Lobaton or Asdrubal Cabrera into the game and gotten a hitter to lead off the 6th, but by turning the lineup over, it gives Mickey his best OBP hitters (Nimmo and Conforto) to start the inning. The reason the trend with managers putting their best hitters as high in the order as possible has emerged is because it ensures they get more at bats. It might seem small, but turning the lineup over in this spot guarantees the Brewers can't win the game without getting Conforto and Yoenis Céspedes out twice. Even with Yo struggling, it's no easy feat.
On the surface, it looks like a blunder by Callaway that his players were able to bail him out of. But even though the result of that move was the end of a rally, there was a method to the madness, and it did make baseball sense. And that just underscores the vast complexities of this game.
Just because Callaway's move didn't seem right doesn't mean there was a right call to make. You never know what would happen in the road not taken. If Nido stays in the game and grounds out on the first pitch, maybe the Mets don't get to Flores' spot in the 9th and the Brewers score in the 10th and lock it down in extras? Maybe Nido hits a three-run homer? Who knows. What we do know is that, over the season's first three weeks, Mickey's mistakes have been few and far between. If the first year skipper can keep minimizing them, New York is going to be just fine.

What's Left of Crawford Power Plant to be Demolished July 6, Company Says
Heather Cherone | June 19, 2020 5:19 pm

What's left of the Crawford Power Plant will be demolished starting July 6, company officials announced Friday.
City officials confirmed Friday afternoon that Hilco Global is now allowed to move forward with construction.
Ald. Mike Rodriguez (22nd Ward) said city officials told him that "all legal options to stop this project from moving forward have been exhausted."
Rodriguez vowed to monitor the work to ensure nearby residents aren't effected.
The firm is working to demolish the former coal power plant to build a warehouse it is referring to as Exchange 55, in a nod to its proximity to the Stevenson (I-55) Expressway.
Hilco and the company that will conduct the demolition, Heneghan Wrecking & Excavation Co., Inc., will host a virtual bilingual community meeting at 10 a.m. June 27 to detail the demolition and dust mitigation plan for the remaining structures at 3501 S. Pulaski Road.
Heneghan began demolishing the former turbine building at the power plant June 5 and finished this week. That work was "successful and safe," according to Mimi Simon, a spokesperson for the city's Department of Buildings.
City officials said Thursday an additional portion of the seven-story power plant would be demolished immediately because it was in danger of collapsing.
The demolition of the rest of the plant "will be conducted using a manual process that does not utilize an implosion," company officials said in a statement, and will follow the city's dust mitigation plan for the project.
Even before the rest of the former coal power plant is demolished, Hilco will start building the 1-million square foot warehouse, which will be used by Target to ship packages throughout the Midwest.
The first work will include the erection of "precast concrete wall panels and a structural steel frame" and roof, company officials said.
The work to demolish the former coal power plant has been in the spotlight since the April 11 demolition of the smokestack at the former plant sent a plume of dust over six blocks of homes, infuriating Little Village residents and prompting Mayor Lori Lightfoot to propose a six-month moratorium on implosions.
Lightfoot on Wednesday asked the City Council to approve that moratorium while new rules are developed.
In addition, Lightfoot urged aldermen to require firms that want to conduct an implosion to apply for a license from the department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection, notify residents and property owners within 1,000 feet of the implosion, and hold a community meeting to allow nearby residents to ask questions about the plan at least 30 days before the planned implosion.
The city issued 16 citations to Hilco in April, which come with $68,000 in fines, the mayor's office announced. Critics of the firm said those fines are a drop in the bucket as compared with the tax breaks granted by the city.
In 2019, The City Council agreed to grant Hilco a $19.7 million property tax break over the next 12 years after it announced plans to tear down the red-brick power plant, built in 1924 and shuttered in 2012, and replace it with a warehouse.
The City Council Wednesday approved a non-binding resolution that could be the first step toward revoking those tax incentives.
The Illinois Attorney General has sued Hilco over the demolition, saying it violated state environmental laws and put the community at risk.

Challenging a Council's housing list policy (R (TW) and R (Gullu) v London Borough of Hillingdon)
Hillingdon Council's housing rules said that a person must have lived in the area for at least ten years before they could apply for a house. The council refused two people, a refugee who had been given permission to stay in the UK and an Irish Traveller, on these grounds. We saw this as discriminatory and we intervened in their cases in the Administrative Court and the Court of Appeal.
Immigration status and the right to rent a property (R (Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants) v Secretary of State for the Home Department)
As part of the Home Office's 'hostile environment' towards those without leave to remain in the UK, the Immigration Act 2014 prevents landlords from renting property to people who do not have leave to enter or remain in the UK. A body representing the interests of immigrants challenged this, arguing that the law breached both equality and human rights legislation because it causes landlords to discriminate against potential tenants on the grounds of their nationality and/or their race. This may happen, for example, because landlords think they do not look or sound British, even if they are not disqualified from renting.

Hello! Today's card is a simple, stamped birthday card using the Happy Celebrations stamp set from Stampin' Up's 2017 Occasions Catalogue. With a little easy masking technique, this card was so quick and easy!
I started by cutting and scoring a sheet of Whisper White Thick cardstock lengthwise at 4.25"x11", scored at 5.5".
With Rich Razzleberry ink I stamped the 'Happy' solid stamp from the Happy Celebrations stamp set on the card front. Then I stamped the 'Happy' outline stamp in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink over the solid stamped image.
Next, with the same black ink I stamped the 'Birthday to You' as shown.
Then, I took some scrap copy paper (or you can use a larger Post-It Note) to mask off the stamped greeting and then stamped the paint splotches from the Happy Clebrations stamp set with Rich Razzleberry ink and Mint Macaron ink.
Finally, I added a strip of Rhinestones Basics Jewels below the greeting to add some bling and dimension to this no layer birthday card!
I hope you enjoyed today's hand stamped birthday card using the Happy Celebrations stamp set!

David Lemieux: "I'm Coming in Better Than Before"
By Alex Burgos
On Saturday, March 12, 2016, former IBF Middleweight champion David Lemieux (34-3, 31 KOs) will be making a quiet comeback in his backyard of Montreal at the Olympia Theatre.
His opponent will be San Benito, Texas' "King" James De La Rosa (23-3, 13 KOs) who was gone 2-2 in his last four bouts, including an upset victory over Alfredo Angulo and a knockout loss to Hugo Centeno.
The 10-round middleweight bout will air live on Fox Deportes and Ring TV Live in the United States.
Lemieux was last seen in the ring back in October of 2015 when he took on undefeated Middleweight juggernaut, Gennady Golovkin.
Golovkin essentially mopped the floor with Lemieux, stopping him in eight rounds, and after such a one-sided beat down, many in the boxing world are wondering how Lemieux will fair in his return.
"I'm just coming back from a big fight, but I've moved on. I am ready to step into the ring to win," said Lemieux during the final press conference on Wednesday.
At 27, Lemieux is young enough to climb back to championship status and he looks to keep evolving as well.
"De La Rosa is a very good fighter. He's someone who is legit and someone on the good way to my evolution I'm looking at," said Lemieux in an interview with The Montreal Gazette.
"There is nothing that is going to surprise people. I'm coming in better than I did in any of my other fights," said Lemieux.
Of course, De La Rosa is no Golovkin, but a knockout victory for Lemieux will still go a long way in strengthening his psyche and getting him one step closer to a big-time fight.
