University of Iowa College of Law associate dean Linda McGuire presented White with the college's distinguished alumni service award. McGuire worked with White in the county attorney's office from 1982 to 1990.

"During the time I worked with him, he was a real leader in the state," McGuire said, adding that the county attorney's office took on cases that likely would not have been tried in other counties. "He pushed us hard, but he also pushed the law hard." Area law enforcement officials presented White with a plaque. Lyness also gave him a framed photograph of the courthouse. White has been a staunch supporter and admirer of the building for many years and said that one of his biggest regrets about retirement is that he won't be around to be a "cheerleader" for the courthouse. Lyness said White was the one who first encouraged her to run for county attorney.

She told White it was an honor to work for him. "You set the gold standard," she said to White, "and we appreciate that." JCCOG Raid From 1A From 1A an engineering firm with an Iowa City office. The city of Coralville commissioned the firm to do the roads study as a part of a develplan for the Scanlon farmland. In October, the board voted that a new comprehensive study needed to be done in the area because residents felt the Coralville -commissioned study was narrow in scope and biased. A completely new study would cost about $135,000 with North Liberty and Coralville footing the bill.

At Wednesday's meeting, JCCOG board member and North Liberty City Councilor James Wozniak said the city would be willing to share the cost, but not half. "We're willing to pay our fair share," he said. Henry Herwig, JCCOG representative and Coralville City Council member, said he would like to know more about exactly what would be studied before committing the city's money. "Are we willing to pick up 100 percent of it? No," he Wozniak Herwig said. "We have some issues with how much of the previous study can be used." Some residents who spoke at Wednesday's meeting said they still wanted the process to be open to public input and comprehensive.

Some residents also said it might be best to wait until the annexation dispute is decided. "Listening to all the comments, it seems to make sense to deal with the annexation issues," said Beth Davidson, a Johnson County resident. "We need to see how these things come out before we come to the decision that Forevergreen Road is a foregone United Way From 3A At Neighborhood Centers, we diligently track the learning progress of our preschoolers. We use a research-tested curriculum that has been proven effective in speech and language development. We carefully chart a classroom course to help children become successful and responsible students and community members.

In the end, it was the curriculum of kindness that was the most important thing we had to offer Jenna. And ultimately it was kindness that brought Jenna back into this world. When I think of Jenna, I am reminded how easy it is to get caught up in our busy lives and forget the importance of demonstrating kindness, patience and love. Much can be accomplished when we extend our trust and assume responsibility for people who are vulnerable. Our actions create a currency of kindness that I believe will be paid back to us in our vulnerable moments.

Your contribution to United Way's safety net of partner agencies ensures that help will be here when it is needed. Today, Jenna is a teenager. 1 I can't say for sure what is going on in her life. I am hopeful that she is surrounded by people who care for her and who continue to share their kindness with her. And, perhaps just as important, I hope she has kindness to share with others.

"As far as we know right now, they have not been able to receive access to legal counsel." Counts said detainees will have opportunities to meet with lawyers in preparation for hearings with a federal immigration judge, the first step in the deportation process. Fallout from the raids also focused on the treatment of arrested workers by federal ICE agents. Union and social service officials say some workers were beaten in the raid or had jewelry or personal belongings taken. At least four children are still without at least one parent after the crackdown, said Sandra Sanchez, of the Quaker-based American Friends Service Committee in Des Moines.

"People should not be separated from family." Counts said steps were taken to prevent children from being isolated and alone. Each worker arrested was asked about family and exceptions were made to ensure single mothers or at least one parent was released from custody. "Sometimes people lie to us when we ask them if they have any child care issues," Counts said.

"That happens to us frequently, and I wouldn't be surprised if that happened in this operation as well."
