evening, residents of Mount Pulaski were afforded an opportunity
to learn more about electric aggregation and how it affects

information on the subject.

signs of spring awakening in Kickapoo Creek Park: A small
cluster of
daffodils, barely detectable against the yet prevalent winter-drab landscape,
offer a spark of color. Very soon the full side of this levee
planted with narcissus will shout the news that spring has arrived.
By the calendar, the official first day of spring is March 20.
But on Monday, as temperatures climbed to the 80-degree mark,
the park was abustle with many visitors enjoying a breath of
fresh air, exercising, playing -- some enjoying it all with their
four-legged companions.

A malnourished woman in an emergency situation will
produce enough milk to nourish her baby. Milk production
is relatively unaffected in quantity and quality. When a
breastfeeding woman is malnourished, it is the mother
who suffers, not the infant.
