Raytown Robotics Place In Their First Competition The Raytown C-2 Robotics team participated for the first time in the First Tech Challenge (FTC) Robotics competition that took place on Saturday, February 1st, 2014, and hosted by University of Missouri- Kansas City School of Computing and Engineering. Winning 6 of its 9 matches, the team placed 6th overall in the competition, which featured over 30 teams from four different states.

“All in all the students did a great job in their first competition, and I am very proud of their accomplishment,” robotics sponsor and Industrial Arts Teacher Steve Myer said. “We will be working through the spring and summer to improve and look forward to taking our team back to UMKC for a second go around.”

The team, named Fire and Ice, is comprised of students from Raytown and Raytown South High School and formed in November of 2013.

“The students had fun and the robot performed as you would expect any computer operated machine would,” Myer said. “We had to constantly kick it to motivate it to do what we wanted, but it all worked out in the end.”

To participate, students build a robot from re-usable, modular materials with the assistance of community mentors and local educators. Teams of seven to twelve students are responsible for designing, building and programming their robot to compete in a 12-by-12 foot arena to complete a task within a time period. The top six teams will advance to the Missouri State Championship, to be held in Rolla on March 1.

The FIRST Tech Challenge is a program with Kansas City FIRST, a division of US FIRST, an organization established to encourage young people toward STEM careers.

RHS Ambassadors Series Presents The Robinson Family Legacy

On Monday, March 3rd, 10:00 a.m., the Raytown Historical Society will hold its Ambassadors Meeting at the Raytown Historical Museum located at 9705 E 63rd Street. The program will give a pictorial history of one the most significant families to ever settle in Raytown Mo. The first member of the Robinson family to arrive was Rev. James J. Robinson in 1843. From the time as he and his wife, Matilda, made their home in Jackson County, they and the future Robinsons did as much or more than any

others to build and support what became the City of Raytown, Missouri.

Today much physical evidence remains of what they brought about: Robinson Grade School at 67th & Woodson Rd., the building that had once been Robinson Ford at 62nd & Raytown Rd. and the graceful old Thaddeus Greene home on 70th Terrace.

More important, however, is the legacy they left in our churches, our schools and local businesses built over these one hundred and seventy one years.

Taylor Asks For Stay Of Execution On Feb. 26 On Monday, Death row inmate, Michael Taylor reached an agreement with the Apothecary Shoppe, a compounding pharmacy in Tulsa, Oklahoma, that it will not and has not supplied pentobarbital or any other drug to be used in Taylor’s execution scheduled for February 26. Taylor sued to stop the compounding of the new drug recently used by Missouri Corrections in its last three executions because it may cause “cruel and un- Ann Harrison

Taylor’s attorneys asked the federal judge to stay the execution, arguing there is no legal way to execute in Missouri and not telling him the drugs to be used denies him due process to challenge the legal use of pentobarbital.

It is reported that Governor Jay Nixon stated on Tuesday, “In order to complete that ultimate responsibility,

Aziere explained that there has never been any document of procedures to hand to a newly elected alderman. The mayor asked him to dig up the procedures he wrote back in 2002 that were based on a compilation of procedures he

Rules of Order (RRO), which by City ordinance is the standard for governing board meetings, as well as rules that overstep the abilities and capacities of its members. Aziere assured the board that the guidelines had been reviewed by City Attorney, Joe Willerth, who confirmed that none of the points were in conflict with Roberts Rules. Many aldermen just shook their heads in disagreement.

Alderman Janet Emerson was particularly vocal about her concerns, giving a detailed pointby-point argument against implementation of such a document.

The procedure defines majority, as “a simple majority of the quorum which is six members of the Board of Alderman” yet she pointed out, the RRO states that it is “more than half of the votes cast by persons legally entitled to vote, excluding blanks or abstentions.”

Later in the document, Rule 20 reads “if a Board member states that he or she is not voting, his or her silence shall be recorded as an affirmative vote.” Emerson cited RRO’s definition of abstention status means a member who abstains from voting is not counted and argued this rule degrades transparency in the legislative process and provides a means for “playing politics”. Board members could dupe citizen by appearing to be neutral yet secretly adding to the affirmative votes.

Rule 20 states “the

Mayor shall vote only if there is a tie vote among the members of the Board as a Whole. The Mayor Pro Tem shall vote with the Board while employed as the presiding officer, and again to break a tie.” Emerson pointed to the glaring contradiction to parliamentary procedure that calls for members who step into the role of presiding officer do not have the right to vote unless by ballot. “Even then, he cannot vote a second time to break a tie as that would mean one person receives two votes,” she explained.

Emerson took issue with the rules that were in direct contradiction to city ordinances. Rule 7 states that all standing and temporary committees shall be appointed by the Mayor but City Ordinance 2-36 “gives board members the ability to motion and appoint ad hoc or temporary committees”. Rule 11 states the “presiding officer shall preserve decorum and decide all questions of order, subject to appeal by the Board of Alderman” but RRO provides several procedures for interrupting a speaking member in calls for order. Alderman Steve Mock and Alderman Bill VanBuskirk wanted board members to have the opportunity to report on important city events but they are now only allowed to report on Board appointed committees, a rule not included in the draft procedures.

“Do we really want to give up our rights to the

legislative process as dually elected Board members? My problem is how many rights do we want taken away from us?” she asked. “Raytown is not a dictatorship.”

Aziere and Mayor Bower both assured Emerson that the intent was not to take away any rights, but simply to provide better guidelines for the members.

“If we have procedures written down,” Aziere said, “it allows everyone to have input in how we run the meetings.”

Bower echoed his sentiments, saying, “The purpose of this was just to provide some guidelines so we don’t trip ourselves, as has happened several times over the last few months.”

The guidelines ranged from everything to dress codes and meeting times to removal of aldermen from the board. After an hour’s discussion, there was no consensus on Aziere’s proposed guidelines or on whether the board would like to pursue a simplified version to formally consider.

Aldermen Joe Creamer, Janet Emerson, Pat Ertz Jason Greene and Josh Greene did not think formal procedures were necessary yet Bower advised those aldermen who would still like to see additional guidelines provided for current and future officials to discuss on their own and bring the issue back for continued consideration.

Kauffman Center is excited to present Regina Carter, innovative jazz violinist, and the talented siblings of The 5 Browns as part of the 2013–2014 ‘Kauffman Center Presents’ season,” said Jane Chu, President and CEO of the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts. “These inventive musicians stretch the boundaries of their instruments; on one hand we have a jazz violinist performing bluegrass, on the other, five pianists will bring a fresh perspective to the classics.

Regina Carter Sunday, March 23, 2014 | 7 pm Helzberg Hall Over a span of more than two decades, violinist Regina Carter has established herself as an enduring and creative force in jazz. She demonstrates an unbridled artistry and imagination and has explored a broad diversity of styles from jazz to classical and soul to African. Carter draws from a diverse well of influences that include classical, Motown swing, funk, and world music, among others. In 2006, Carter won the highly esteemed MacArthur Fellowship, which is given to individuals who have shown extraordinary originality and dedication in their creative pursuits.

Her latest project, “Southern Comfort,” lends her improvisational virtuosity to American country and bluegrass music.

The 5 Browns Friday, May 16, 2014 | 8 pm Helzberg Hall The 5 Browns are delivering on their dream to wake up classical music by introducing it to the widest, largest, and most excited audience they can find. The 5 Browns – Ryan, Melody, Gregory, Deondra and Desirae – all attended New York’s Julliard School. They became the first family of five siblings ever accepted simultaneously.

Whether performing individually or together in various combinations from duo tocomplex fivepiano arrangements, The 5 Browns reveal a deep connection to the intent of the material while bringing a fresh energy and dynamic character to the color and tonal spectrum of their sound. The quintet enjoyed their first wave of critical attention in February 2002 when People magazine dubbed them the “Fab Five” at about the same time they were featured on Oprah and 60 Minutes. The 5 Browns have released three CDs that each went to #1 on Billboard Magazine’s Classical Album Chart.

City Administrator’s Report

By Mahesh Sharma City Administrator

Public Works

The White Oak West Sanitary Sewer Line A construction continued this week after a week of little progress due to low temperatures.

The contractor is working at three separate areas this week. One crew is continuing to grind rock and install pipe near 83rd & Elm. Another crew is boring under 83rd street and installing the thick steel carrier pipe where the creek crosses under 83rd Street. The third crew is installing pipe near the creek located

by Raytown Road. The contractor anticipates the rate of construction will increase as the amount of rock removal will decrease along 83rd Street.

Google is in full construction mode in Raytown with 16 contrac-

tors working on fiber installation. As of February 13th there were 671 different permits issued to Google contractors for work within the Right of Way and that is for a little more than half of the work envisioned by Google. We believe the final number of Right of Way permits issued will be nearly 1200 permits. Google is installing the fiber network on existing KCP&L poles and underground. To ensure the poles are capable of handling the increased loads many of the poles will have to be replaced or upgraded, and PAR electric is working

throughout Raytown replacing the necessary poles.

The last few winter storms have been a strong reminder that snow removal is not easy or cheap. The following measurements give an indication of the effort expended thus far in our first 10 events this winter season: • Road salt utilized: 1,477 tons • Beet Juice salt brine mixture utilized: 6,000 gallons • Miles drive by snow plows: 15,593 miles

In 1995, she was assigned to the Jackson County Drug Task Force, where she was the lead undercover Detective in

numerous drug investigations. In 1999, Captain Rogers was awarded the COMBAT Law Enforcement Officer of the Year, for her contributions related to the investigation and prosecution of retail merchants involved in the volume sale of pseudoephedrine.

In 2000, Captain Rogers returned to Raytown for six months in patrol and then to Investigations for six years as a Detective and two years as a Corporal. In 2008, Captain Rogers was awarded the Crime Stoppers Officer of the Year, based on career achieve-

ment in investigations.

She was promoted to Sergeant in 2009, where she spent two years as a Patrol Sergeant. She also spent two years in the Professional Standards Unit before being promoted to Captain of Administrative Services on January 12th,

Raytown Youth Court A Viable Option For First Time Youth Offenders

By Mallory Ragon

Corporal Brett Clear, of the Raytown Police Department, gave a presentation to the Board of Aldermen on Tuesday about the Raytown Youth Court. A program in Raytown since 2009, it’s an alternative for first-time youth offenders to going to Jackson County Fam-

ily Court. The process is designed to promote positive peer pressure, by holding first-time offenders responsible for themselves.

“It’s an opportunity, first, for the participants to give back to the community,” Clear said.

“It’s an opportunity for the offender to be held accountable for themselves”

Those who are facing charges of assault, possession of alcohol, truancy and other offenses can appear in the youth court (assuming approval by the victim as well) where they are represented, tried, and either convicted or exonerated by their peers.

Sentencing can include up to 50 hours of community service, as well

as other appropriate requirements, such as written or oral apologies to the victim.

The Raytown Youth Court is a diversion program sanctioned by the Jackson County Family Court. Offenders who fail to serve their sentences or whose victims do not agree to prosecution through the Youth Court program will

have their cases heard by the Jackson County Family Court.

Youth Court participants are 13- to 18-yearolds with no juvenile record and a high sense of integrity. They go through a simple background check (including conversations with teachers and principals) and a 10-hour training program. They must

also pass a 25-question bar examination based on the training sessions and adhere to a dress code appropriate of a courtroom.

Clear, who was recently promoted from detective, will be passing management of the program to another detective in the coming months.

More Than $1 Million In Unclaimed Property Returned To Seven Account Owners 71 accounts with $100,000 or more are waiting to be claimed

Clint Zweifel

State Treasurer Clint Zweifel has returned more than $1 million in Unclaimed Property to seven account owners since November 2013. Treasurer Zweifel currently holds $810 million in Unclaimed Property belonging to 4.7 million account owners, including 71 accounts with more than $100,000. Since taking office in January

2009, Treasurer Zweifel has returned more than $187 million to more than 630,000 accounts.

“I receive new Unclaimed Property every day, and my staff works diligently to return it to the rightful owners,” Treasurer Zweifel said. “Checking ShowMeMoney. com regularly is a good financial habit, and it is always free of charge.

You can even sign up for email alerts when new Unclaimed Property matching your information is added.”

Below is an overview of the seven accounts returned: • The first claim was returned to an Illinois resident totaling $146,000 and was made up of 34 separate

accounts, including a stock liquidation worth almost $50,000.

• The second claim totaled $107,000 and went to a trust in St. Louis. It contained two accounts, made up almost entirely of a mutual fund liquidation.

• The third claim totaled $126,000 and went to a California resident.

It was made up of four accounts, the largest being a matured certificate of deposit.

• The fourth claim was made up of two matured certificates of deposit that together were worth $111,000 and went to an individual in St. Peters, Missouri.

• The fifth claim went to a business in St. Louis and was made up of

a single account worth $100,000 due under an insurance policy.

• The sixth claim went to a trust in St. Louis. It was made up of a single account worth $185,000 from liquidated mutual fund shares.

• The last and largest claim was returned to a corporation based in St. Louis that was made up of 110 accounts totaling $241,000, the largest being an accounts payable check.

All the accounts Treasurer Zweifel holds, including those that went to out of state residents, were reported to his office with an address in Missouri and are therefore under his jurisdiction. Treasurer Zweifel made history in 2011

when he returned $6.1 million to a Kansas City resident—one of the largest single returns to an individual on record.

There are 71 accounts with $100,000 or more waiting to be returned across the state. The geographic breakdown is: 29 in St. Louis County; 21 in Jackson County; seven in St. Louis City; three in Camden County; two in Boone County; two in Cole County; and one each in Buchanan, Butler, Clay, Franklin, Jasper, Jefferson and Lafayette counties.

In December 2013, Treasurer Zweifel unveiled a new program, which allows Missourians to donate their Unclaimed Property to one of 20 charitable organi-

Know The Reasoning Behind Your Salt Seasoning You don’t need to be a gourmet chef to use various types of salts to help unlock the full flavor of your favorite dish. Once you understand the differences, you’ll want to keep several types of salt on hand.

Sea Salt: Water is harvested from the sea and allowed to evaporate, leaving the salt.

All-purpose sea salt can be measured like table salt. The smaller crystals of fine sea salt blend easily into dishes and a sprinkle of coarse sea salt is ideal for finishing vegetable dishes and desserts.

Kosher Salt: The compact crystals of coarse Kosher Salt adhere well to food and dissolve slowly, imparting a well-rounded flavor. That makes it great for brining meat, rimming margarita glasses, roasting, barbecuing, marinating and making rubs. Its flakes are much bigger than table salt, and chefs like that it can be easily pinched for measuring. Why

Sea Salt Caramel Brownies

kosher? Because of its original role in koshering meat, but it has many more uses.

Table Salt: Mined from underground salt mines, this kitchen staple is perfect for baking because the uniform crystals allow for precise measurements. Its crystals are also fine, making it perfect for filling saltshaker and spreading evenly over food.

Here are a couple of recipes using course sea salt, the perfect fin-

on top of brownie batter. Bake brownie batter per package directions.

Remove brownies from oven. Sprinkle Morton Coarse Sea Salt over brownies. Cool brownies before cutting.

One Pot Easy Cheesy Vegetables & Rice

Ingredients • 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil • 1/2 teaspoon Morton Fine Sea Salt • 1 cup extra-long

grain rice (15 minute variety) • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables • 3 cups chicken stock • 1 1/2cups shredded cheddar cheese Preparation 1. Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add remaining ingredients, except for cheese. Bring to boil for 1 minute. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.

Life Of John William “Blind” Boone Highlighted For Black History Month Secretary of State Jason Kander presented a program highlighting the life of famous Missouri musician, John William “Blind” Boone, in recognition of Black History Month on February 20 at the Missouri State Archives. Editors Mary Barile and Christine Montgomery spoke about their new book, Merit, Not Sympathy, Wins: The Life and Times of Blind Boone.

In post-Reconstruction America, Boone, an illiterate musician, overcame obstacles created by disability, exploitative managers and racial prejudice to become one of the country’s most beloved concert performers. The story of Blind Boone is revitalized in Barile and Montgomery’s annotated edition of Melissa Fuell-Cuther’s original, out-of-print 1915 biography, Blind Boone: His Life and Achievements.

Accompanied by essays describing Boone’s en-

vironment and achievements as well as his present-day place in American music, the work recounts Boone’ s harrowing journey and testifies to the struggles of African-Americans during the Jim Crow era.

John William Boone was born on May 17, 1864, in a Federal militia camp in Miami, Missouri, to a contraband slave, Rachel Boone Hendricks, once owned by descendants of Daniel Boone and a bugler in the 7th Missouri State Militia Cavalry. They moved to Warrensburg, Missouri, where John was diagnosed with “brain fever”, now called cerebral meningitis when he was six months old. Doctors removed his eyes to “cure” the brain fever.

Boone showed musical talent as a toddler so his mother provided him with musical instruments. He began making music at age

discovered that the new superintendent banned blacks from playing the piano.

Boone then began to sneak out to the nightclubs in the Tenderloin District, which eventually got him expelled from school. He earned a train ticket back home by entertaining passengers with his harmonica and soon returned to playing in a band. Mark Cromwell became his manager but never paid him what he earned.

Boone’s life turned around during a Christmas performance at a

church in 1897 where he performed alongside a man named Blind Tom Bethune.

The owner of Entertainment Hill, John Lange, Jr., saw Boone play, signed on as his manager and sent Boone to college to study music.

He then started the J.W. Boone Music Co. and they toured overseas and gave six concerts a week.

He died in 1927 from a heart attack and had one of the largest funerals in the black community of Columbia, Missouri.
