We aim to break even on postage and will use the best method to minimise costs. One good innovation is the introduction of the “POST PLUS” satchels, which replace the old red satchels and include a tracking number. Available in 3 sizes they are 500 grams ($7.50) 3kgs ($11.50) 5kgs ($14.50) P & P. The latter 2 are perfect for larger interstate packages as anything over 500 grams even is going to cost more than $11.50. We can take a cd out of a case to reduce costs. Basically 1 cd still $2. 2cds $3 and rest as they will fit. Again Australia Post have this ludicrous notion that if a package can fit through a certain slot on a card it goes as a letter whereas if it doesn’t it is classified as a “parcel” and can cost up to 5 times as much. One day I will send a letter to the Minister for Trade as their policies are distinctly prejudicial to commerce. Out here they make massive profits but offer a very poor number of services and charge top dollar for what they do provide. Still, the mail mostly always gets there. But until ssuch times as their local monopoly remains, things won’t be much different. ----------------------------------------------- For those long term customers and anyone receiving these newsletters for the first time we have several walk in sales per year, with the next being Saturday August 25th.

  • Under-Represented Groups and Library Leadership
    Under-represented groups and library leadership Tennessee Libraries Vol 55 No 2 The Rainbow Effect -- Under-Represented Groups and Library Leadership President's Program Rosa Burnett, Director, Southwest Tennessee Community College; Murle Kenerson, Assistant Director, Tennessee State University; Thura Mack, Associate Professor, University of Tennessee Knoxville; Biddanda "Suresh" Ponnappa, Associate Dean, Director Medical Library, Quillen College of Medicine, East Tennessee State University; moderated by Kay Due, Memphis Shelby County & Information Center Abstract from the conference program: Ethnically diverse library administrators are still somewhat rare. Library leaders from under- represented ethnic groups will tell personal stories of challenge and triumph. Attendees will gain insight needed to navigate the road to leadership. Expect frank talk about mentoring, networking, and avoiding career pitfalls. The majority of the following text is a lightly edited transcript of a live recording of this program. Thura Mack's written version of her presentation is included in place of a transcript. Rosa Burnett, Director, Southwest Tennessee Community College: Kay gave us a few questions to ponder and I sort of laughed at of some of them, but I just want to start our presentation with this: "Librarianship is a career which helps communities." Just ask a librarian and they will let you know. Well, now, if you ask a community, I wonder what kind of answers will be given to that-- because when we have problems within the library or with some of the public libraries, it's those people who use the library the most that may speak up when you're really down to the wire.

  • A RESOLUTION to Honor the Memory of Country Music Legend Merle Haggard. WHEREAS, the Members of This General Assembly Were Great
    SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 754 By Senators Crowe, Overbey, Southerland, Yarbro and Representative Clemmons A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of country music legend Merle Haggard. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of Merle Haggard, the voice of America's blue-collar working class, a founder of the Bakersfield Sound, and a fiercely independent visionary who, along with Hank Williams, influenced modern country music more than any other artist; and WHEREAS, during the course of his half-century career, Mr. Haggard recorded forty number­ one country singles and wrote some of the genre's most revered classics, which have been recorded by Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, The Byrds, Vince Gill, The Grateful Dead, and countless others; and WHEREAS, Merle Haggard so embodied country music that the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's core exhibit, Sing Me Back Home, takes its title from a chart-topping song he released in 1968; and WHEREAS, born to Oklahoma migrants James and Flossie Haggard on April 6, 1937, in Bakersfield, California, Merle Ronald Haggard was the youngest of three children in a poor family who lived in a converted railroad car; and WHEREAS, after his father died in 1946, Merle Haggard entered a rebellious phase that resulted in his spending time in juvenile facilities and reform schools, but he also fell in love with music and began playing guitar, captivated by country artists such as Lefty Frizzell, Western Swing pioneer Bob Wills, and The Maddox Brothers and Rose;

A great artist with a fine voice and more than a passing nod to the wonderful Mel Street. This is as good if not better than his two previous albums, “Wesley Dennis” and “Country to the Core”. The first was on Mercury and the second was an independent with the same brilliant marketing stategy he employs on his latest. But who is he to be told. Wesley has written 7 of the album’s 14 tracks and all are fine.

State government delivers many different services and touches our lives in many ways. The following pages describe the major departments and agencies that make up the executive branch of state government. These administrative divisions are directed by the governor and the governor’s appointees. The state constitution divides the powers of state government into three distinct branches—the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. The legislative authority of the state is vested in a General Assembly, and the judicial power of the state is vested in a Supreme Court and a system of other courts established by the Legislature. In the case of the executive branch, the constitution places the “supreme executive power” of the state with the governor.
