LATISHA KOETTING/DEMOCRAT Emma Kostopolus teaches Girl Scouts from the area about the country of Egypt at Thinking Day 2012 at First Christian Church on Feb. 23. Though Emma Kostopo- lus, of Sedalia, is a busy col- lege student, she makes time to help some special girls. Kostopolus joined Girls Scouts when she was in kindergarten. She feels Scout- ing is a good opportunity for girls to learn new things and to make new friends. Despite the fun she was having when she was young, she quit Girl Scouts in the fifth grade be- cause several of her friends were older and were in differ- ent troops. “A lot of people really don’t realize scouting contin- ues after the fifth grade,” she said. However, she found she missed it and returned as a volunteer a few years later. She has gone on to receive the Gold Award, the highest achievement in Girl Scouts. This is the equivalent to Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts. “Scouting is important for older girls so they can de- velop leadership skills and get experience that can be used in other areas of their lives,” she said. About 5.5 percent of eligi- ble Girl Scouts achieve this award. Girls must do 50 hours of leadership either in Girl Scouts or in the community. She earned her Silver Award by helping the Brownies. “Those girls became Jun- iors and I decided to step up and lead the troop,” she said. Every Thursday night she meets with the girls of Troop 290 for 90 minutes. She plans the programs and activities for the troop. Destiny Clancy, 10, of Sedalia, is one of the girls Kostopolus works with. Des- tiny said having her as a leader was amazing and it changed her life. She had been thinking about quitting but Kostopolus made scout- ing fun and made her feel special. “She’s trying so hard. She’s coming down here all the way from college to help us learn stuff that some peo- ple have never learned be- fore,” Destiny said. Alexis Bassett, 11, another Junior said having Kostopolus as a leader “means that I know that we’re going to have fun no matter what we do.” While at the helm this year, there was something special Kostopolus desired. “I wanted my girls to do Thinking Day,” she said. “I remember Thinking Day as one of my favorite activities when I was about their age. I wanted them to get experi- ence in taking charge and helping girls their own age and younger.” Thinking Day is a celebra- tion where girls plan activi- ties with global themes. The girls of Troop 290 each picked a country and taught other Scouts about their coun- tries through cuisine, crafts and facts. “It’s a lot to ask of fourth and fifth-graders,” she said. “I think they did wonder- fully.” Besides the leadership hours, Kostopolus also had to do a community service proj- ect to get her Gold Award. She did a community-wide literacy drive in the fall of 2011. She had drop boxes at several libraries and churches and collected 700 books which she gave to the Sedalia School District 200. “The Gold Award is a lot of work, but it’s really re- warding. It’s nice to know that I gave back to the school district that I was once a stu- dent in,” Kostopolus said. She also mentioned how the award looks good on col- lege applications and can help with scholarships. Kostopolus graduated from Smith-Cotton in December and is attending the University of Central Missouri. She is double ma- joring in philosophy and mathematics. Though she doesn’t know what her schedule will be next semester, she would like to keep working with the Girl Scouts in some capacity. As for the girls in Troop 290, she would like to see them all continue with scouting and become active leaders. “I would like to see them get their Silver and Gold awards ideally one day,” she said. “I know if she can work hard enough to do it, that I can too,” said Alexis. Kostopolus is the daughter of Dalton and Terry Kostopo- lus, of Sedalia. By Latisha Koetting Emma Kostopolus leads by example

Women Rising: How WomenWill Learn, Work and Start
Businesses In The 21st Century(NAPS)—Women have become more vital to America’s prosper-
ity than ever. Without their activity in the U.S. workforce, the econ-omy would shrink by 25 percent.
A new book by the vice president and managing director ofApollo Research Institute finds that women’s contributions to man-agement, small business and job creation are at an all-time high. In“Society 3.0: How TechnologyIs Reshaping Education,Work and Society,” Dr. TraceyWilen-Daugenti describeshow women’s changing rolesand rising rates of education-al achievement are helpingthem master the challenges ofcareer while maintainingwork/life balance.
A former Silicon Valleyexecutive, Dr. Wilen-Daugenti says that morewomen leaders are emergingas societal perceptions evolve.Rising numbers of Americans now believe women should be themajor family breadwinner, she writes, and men are assuming a fair-er share of home and family duties to compensate.
Although women still earn only 77 percent of what their malecolleagues earn for comparable work, they bring home 44 percent ofU.S. household income. They fared better than men during theGreat Recession, however, with only 25 percent of layoffs affectingfemale employees. And women-owned firms are responsible forover 23 million jobs and $3 trillion in annual economic impact.
Women are finding creative ways to bust stereotypes whilelaunching satisfying careers. Self-employment is one path; 35 per-cent of all solo entrepreneurs are women, and their numbers areincreasing by 23 percent annually. “Women can also stand out byentering traditionally male-dominated careers such as science, engi-neering and computer technology, where salaries happen to behighly competitive,” Dr. Wilen-Daugenti says.
Education is helping to close the gap. Women are now earningmore higher degrees than men. And more female managers holdbachelor’s or master’s degrees than do male managers. “Thesetrends position women to prevail in a competitive future,” says Dr.Wilen-Daugenti.

Degree-holding women will prosper intomorrow’s competitive job market.
Your CareerQ: Could you give some informa-
tion on the two actors who play Finchand Reese on "Person of Interest"? Idon't recall seeing either of them be-fore, but I like them both and find theshow exciting. -- Karen V., Roanoke,Va.A: Michael Emerson and Jim
Caviezel play Harold Finch and JohnReese, respectively. Many will remem-ber Michael, 57, from "Lost," where heplayed Ben. He's also made the roundson the cops-and-lawyers shows like"The Practice," "The X-Files," "Withouta Trace," "Law and Order: SVU," etc.Prior to "Person of Interest," Jim, 43,was best known for playing Jesus in MelGibson's "The Passion of the Christ."You can see Jim on the big screen laterthis year in "Savannah" and "Bliss!" andnext year in "The Tomb" with SylvesterStallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
***Q: I am so happy that USA Net-
work's "Fairly Legal" is finally backfor another season. Can you give meany scoop for season two? -- Violet F.,via e-mailA: I spoke with "Fairly Legal" co-star
Virginia Williams, who plays LaurenReed on the hit legal drama, and shegave me some spoilers."We get to see more facets of Lauren
this year, which is great," Virginia said."We get to see her at home, for example.Everything still revolves around Reed &Reed, but we do see glimpses of Laurenat home: coming back from a jog, goingon a date, having some sort of a life out-side work. We get to see her with herhair down, literally and figuratively.She's still quite guarded and protectiveand exacting and stylish and brilliant,but she's a lot more comfortable withher position now."Last season was all about Lauren
proving to everyone else that she wascapable and that she wasn't just a trophywife," she said. "She could get the jobdone and could lead the firm. This sea-son we see that she not only is ex-tremely capable, but the firm ends upbeing better off than it was even before
Teddy died."***
Q: I heard that there is going to beanother singing-competition show air-ing this summer, I think on ABC? Canyou tell me about it? -- Clark F., via e-mailA: "Duets" is the latest vocal-compe-
tition show to hit the small screen, and itis indeed airing on ABC. Currentlylooking for contestants (abc.com/cast-ing), this show stars Kelly Clarkson,Jennifer Nettles, Lionel Richie andRobin Thicke, who will travel the coun-try looking for undiscovered talent to betheir proteges, as well as duet partners.

Understanding how current of airaffects wildlife key
to successI hate wind.I do understand that the movement of air from
areas of high barometric pressure to low ones isan essential component of keeping our planetinhabitable.
But wind haunts my fishing and hunting somuch that I think it has to be deliberate.
I suppose I could stay home when trees withtrunks I can’t begin to reach around are swaying.
That’s what I usually did back when I waswriting full time.
Nowadays, time devoted to other interests inaddition to writing has forced me to look forways to cope with conditions I once wrote off asintolerable.
When fishing from the bank, a small- tomedium-sized stream — preferably one with-out channels — provides enough protectionfrom the ill effects of high winds to minimizeany need to compromise with the elements.
These streams can be refuges for anglers whoprefer to fish from boats.
Anglers who prefer to anchor crosswise to thecurrent may be limited to areas where the windand the current are moving in the same direction.
Ponds and small impoundments with goodaccess for bank anglers are great places to fish onwindy days.
Since protected coves, points and windblownshorelines will be within walking distance ofeach other, it doesn’t take long to determinewhere most of the body of water’s active fish areholding.
Or at least it doesn’t if the angler equips himor herself with lures suited for use under adverseconditions.
For example, no one other than a bona fideexpert should attempt to use a fly rod anytimewind speeds reach double digits.
The same could be said for casting light, bulkylures. Instead, stick with jigs, inline spinnerbaitsand streamlined crankbaits.
Unless the fish are really biting — which theysometimes are — boating on a major reservoirwhen wind speeds exceed about 20 mph isn’tmuch fun for the passenger, and it’s no fun forthe person operating the boat.
Given that the boat is up to the task, it can bedone by preplanning launch sites as close to thearea to be fished as possible.
Although I’ve done it before and probablywill again, I can’t in good conscience recom-mend boating on a large river on a windy day.
Travel can be deceptively easy on stretcheswhere the direction of the wind and the currentare the same, but around the next bend may be astretch where the wind and the water are movingin opposite directions.
This creates large waves, the crests of whichare much closer together than they would beunder similar conditions on a lake.
As a general rule, land animals share myopinion of wind.
Deer, for example, depend on their senses of
scent, hearing and sight for both communicationand survival.
As wind speeds increase, scent disperses inunpredictable patterns, hearing becomesimpaired and moving vegetation confusesvision.
Moderate winds shift deer into protected val-leys and downwind slopes, but they may remainactive.
High winds cause deer to hole up in the heav-iest available cover where they often remainimmobile even when closely approached byhunters.
I’ve personally observed squirrels misjudgeleaps from one tree to another and wind upfalling unceremoniously to the forest floor.
They give every indication they didn’t enjoythe experience.
Limbs being whipped back and forth by highwinds add all but impossible complications tosomething that must be difficult under the bestcircumstances even for natural acrobats.
Squirrel hunting when the winds exceed 25mph is usually futile, because the animals willstay in their dens all day.
If the high winds persist for several days,hunger will force the squirrels to make brief for-ays for food, but they’ll spend most of their timeclose to or on the ground and will be exception-ally wary.
From a hunter’s perspective, the way birdsrespond to wind varies with species.
In the spring, male turkeys are so preoccupiedby the urge to breed that they may respond to thefact that high winds make it harder for them to beseen or heard by prospective mates back in thetimber that they spend more time in open fields.
Unfortunately, they instinctively know thatthe sound of their gobbles won’t carry as far as itwould under calm conditions, so it’s difficult toget them to move away from their display areaeven in response to a call.
Waterfowl can be an exception to the rule thatwind is detrimental to success outdoors.
Migrating flocks ride the strong north windsthat often accompany cold fronts.
By the time these birds reach Missouri,they’re ready to find a place to feed and rest.
Crop fields and flooded oak flats provide theformer and protected pockets on bodies of waterof every type and size provide the latter.
Well, I’ve managed to fill my allotted spacewith ways to make fishing and hunting if not bet-ter then at least possible when the wind’s howl-ing.
So have I changed my mind? Let me put itthis way: I hate wind.

• On April 4, 1812, President James Madison fires an economicsalvo at the British government and enacts a 90-day embargo ontrade with England. The embargo did little to forestall war: TheBritish refused to cease harassing American ships, promptingMadison to lead America into the War of 1812.
• On April 3, 1860, the first Pony Express mail simultaneouslyleaves St. Joseph, Mo., heading west, and Sacramento, Calif.,heading east on a 1,800-mile journey. On April 13, the west-bound packet arrived in Sacramento, beating the eastboundpacket by two days.
• On April 7, 1891, American showman Phineas Taylor Barnumdies in Bridgeport, Conn. The 81-year-old showman's sense ofhumor never deserted him. He requested that a New York news-paper run his obituary before he died so he could enjoy readingit, and the paper obliged.
• On April 2, 1902, the first American theater devoted solely tomovies opens in Los Angeles. Housed in a circus tent, the venuewas dubbed "The Electric Theater." Admission cost 10 cents fora one-hour show.
• On April 5, 1931, Fox Film Corp. drops John Wayne from itsroster of actors. Wayne had played bit parts but failed to impressthe studio. In 1939, Wayne finally had his breakthrough in"Stagecoach." He went on to play in dozens of movies, includ-ing "True Grit," for which he won an Oscar in 1969.
• On April 6, 1970, Sam Sheppard, a doctor convicted of mur-dering his pregnant wife in a trial that caused a media frenzy inthe 1950s, dies of liver failure. After a decade in prison, Shep-pard was found Ònot guiltyÓ in a second trial in 1966. "TheFugitive" television series and movie were rumored to have beenloosely inspired by the story.
• On April 8, 1990, director David Lynch's surreal series, "TwinPeaks," premieres. The show, with its bizarre characters and baf-fling story line, became an instant cult hit.

Proceed with caution if you are asked to send money or to give a credit card number. Proceed with caution in calling 900 phone numbers. All phone numbers pre-fixed by “900” are charged to the CALLER. Charges may be assessed on a “per minute” rather than a “per call” basis.
