Points of interest include bridges, dams, gaging stations, county lines, hydrologic unit boundaries, and major tributaries. Drainage areas are presented for selected sites, including total drainage area for any streams draining at least 100 square miles.

Page 1B VERGE Wage hike may tax budgets By Jeff Stauber STAFF WRITER Some Eastern departments may decide to lay off some of their student employees in January when the state’s minimum wage increases from $5.15 an hour to $5.50. While Eastern receives money from the federal government to pay all work-study student employ- ees, the university itself pays the salaries of stu- dent workers not in work-study. The majority of regular student employees earn minimum wage, but some university departments’ budgets do not account for the upcoming minimum wage increase. As a result the departments will have less money beginning in January to pay their student workers. The minimum wage increase to $5.50 an hour this upcoming January is the first part of a two- step plan that will finalize with another minimum wage increase to $6.50 in January 2005.

  • 2013 Retrospective FINAL
    A LOOK BACK AT THE McDONALD’S ALL AMERICAN® GAMES SUPERSTARS AND UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES FROM GAMES PAST You’ve seen them on TV and at the movies, in the NBA, WNBA and college ranks – McDonald’s All American alumni are household names to basketball fans. But before they were winning Olympic gold medals, NBA, WNBA and NCAA championships, many of them received their first major national television exposure as high school students at the McDonald’s All American Games. Since the Games inception, more than 1,000 prep stars have been named McDonald’s All Americans and had the opportunity to show off their skills on a national stage before reaching the college or professional ranks. Most importantly, the Games raise funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC®) and its network of local Chapters. To date, the McDonald’s All American Games have raised more than $10 million for RMHC, helping to bring families together in their time of need.
