The tentative consolidated budget, which includes the gen- eral fund, special revenue, school nutrition and capital projects, is $56,177,915. “Some of you do remember that last year, we combined what I call the educational side and the nutritional side budgets,” Finance Chairman Tim Chason said. “They came together so this is about a $56.1 million budget that we have for this year, so a little over 4% increase based on expenses of this current calendar year.” The second required public hearing will be during the regu- lar meeting on Monday, June 10, at 6 p.m., just before the board votes on the fi nal budget.

    WEDNESDAY, 23 OCTOBER 2019 SMULLEN: PROMOTION OF THE SPORT IS KEY HEART LEADS REDVERS TO By Pat Smullen SEA THE STARS COLT Oisin Murphy didn't end up with a big winner on Saturday but he's had a big year and that is the important thing. On Saturday I was thinking back to the work rate he has put in this year. He has ridden all over, travelling by plane, by helicopter, however he could get there to ride horses at two different meetings in a day, wherever they may be. His work ethic is something that needs to be applauded--that's what you need to do to be champion jockey. Oisin is not only an excellent rider but he is great for the game. He promotes our industry extremely well and I hope he does so for many years to come. I must admit, earlier in the year I was hoping that Danny Tudhope would be able to pull it off as the work that Danny has to put in to maintain his weight is phenomenal, and nobody sees that behind the scenes, but it wasn't to be.

My grandfather was called Solomon so my name is the diminutive of his. My people are from the Fish Clan of the northern Ojibway, the Anishinabeg, we call ourselves. We made our home in the territories along the Winnipeg River, where the river opens wide before crossing into Manitoba after it leaves Lake of the Woods and the rugged spine of northern Ontario. They say that our cheekbones are cut from those granite ridges that rise above our homeland. They say that the deep brown of our eyes seeped out of the fecund earth that surrounds the lakes and marshes. The Old Ones say that our long straight hair comes from the waving grasses that thatch the edges of bays.

KLEIN: These women, and what they do and what they have done, inspired so many others to succeed: to see things in ourselves, to encourage us to try, to let us know someone needs to be the first to open doors for all the others. In the words of our panelist Kelly Krauskopf, “Being first is all about earning it.” On September 20, 1973, I was in junior high school and everyone was talking about “women’s lib.” And everyone was talking about the big tennis match that was coming that night between our panelist, Billie Jean King, and Bobby Riggs.1 And the boys were teasing the girls—they were confident that Bobby Riggs was going to win.
