Of course they create rules to make it more complicated, they're the marquee.
Meanwhile, in shows to plan for this summer...
Twin Shadow
Crescent Ballroom
Hmm, Thursday night. To take the following day off or not? I'm kind of surprised he's playing the same venue as last time, considering I thought it sold out. Hopefully this means we get a new album this year & that the crowd will be a bit less obnoxious. (Won't hold my breath on that.)
I usually take the day off after a show if the concert happens on a weeknight.
Fresh off his "JUICY AUSTRALIA TOUR"
False alarm. The co-worker says that plan to increase capacity at the Marquee was delayed so it's no different than it has been.
They didn't. He told me they increased capacity in 2004 from about 1000 to 1500. In order to do that they had to add another toilet to each bathroom (he noted that it's almost always out of order by the way). They were supposed to increase to over 2000 about month ago and the Deftones and Green Day (before Green Day postponed) shows were going to be the first ones with the new capacity. He also said they have always oversold shows and continue to do so. He doesn't know a ton, he's not sure if they are still going to increase or not. This guy is kind of dopey so i'm not really sure what to make of what he says at this point.
I don't understand where you could fit another 500 people there!
Me either.
Did Rodriguez ever have a Crescent Ballroom date or was the Crescent site just selling/promoting the show in Tucson? Oh well. Tucson show is sold out for him.
Rodriguez is now at Mesa Amp on the same effin' day everything else is. Everything else = Foals at Marquee and Postal Service at Comerica.
Really pissed about the Foals/Postal Service shows being on the same night, mostly because Surfer Blood is opening for Foals and I miss them every single time they come to town.
I'm pissed Bat for Lashes is the same night as Sigur Ros.

Students may apply for federal and / or private education loans and must meet all eligibility requirements. International students may borrow private (non-federal) loans and must have a credit-worthy cosigner, who is a US Citizen or permanent resident of the US. Total education loans must not exceed the cost of attendance less financial aid from all sources.
The Perkins Loan program is a federal loan program that provides low interest (5%) loans to eligible students who demonstrate exceptional financial need. No interest accrues on the loan while the student is enrolled on at least a half time basis, during the nine-month grace period, and during periods of deferment. Repayment begins nine months after the student graduates or is no longer enrolled on at least a half time basis. Perkins loans are administered through the Tepper School of Business and funds are limited. The maximum annual award amount is $8,000. There are no loan origination fees for Perkins Loans. Highest consideration is given to the most exceptionally needy students who complete the financial aid application process by the suggested deadline. A separate loan application is not required but students must complete a Perkins Loan Promissory Note and Federal Perkins Loan entrance counseling (separate from Federal Direct Loan Promissory Notes and entrance counseling).
Prior to the semester in which students first borrow a Perkins loan while attending Carnegie Mellon, the university's HUB contacts Perkins awardees to request that borrowers sign the Perkins Loan Promissory Note and complete Perkins Loan Entrance Counseling via our Perkins Loan servicer website, ECSI.net. Students generally are able to access these documents shortly before the start of their first semester as a Perkins borrower and only after being contacted by the HUB to do so. Continuing students must meet the satisfactory academic progress requirements in order to be eligible for Federal Perkins Loans.
Federal loan borrowers must meet citizenship and all federal aid eligibility requirements and be enrolled in an eligible program on at least a half time basis (18 or more units). There is no credit check performed for Stafford Loan borrowers however Grad Plus Loan borrowers are subject to a credit check during the loan application process. Students who do not meet credit guidelines for the Grad Plus Loan may apply with a credit worthy cosigner. Please also refer to the steps to apply for financial aid.
Interest rates on Federal Direct Loans are fixed for the life of the loan. Interest rates are established each year for new federal Direct Unsubsidized and new Federal Direct Grad Plus Loans for which the first disbursement is on or after July 1st through the following June 30th. The rate is equal to the sum of a uniform "index rate" plus and "add-on" of 3.60% for Stafford Loans and 4.60% for Grad Plus. The index rate is determined each year as the "high yield of the 10-year US Treasury note" auctioned at the final auction held prior to the June 1st preceding the July 1st of the year for which the rate is to become effective, plus the statutorily defined "add-on". The interest rate for a Federal Direct Loan, once established, will apply for the life of the loan. Actual rates and fees for 2013-2014 Direct Loans are shown in the next section.
The interest rate for graduate Stafford Loans first disbursed between July 1, 2013 and June 30, 2014 is fixed at 5.41%. Federal Direct Stafford Loans first disbursed on or after December 1, 2013 have a 1.072% origination fee, which is deducted from the gross amount of the loan at disbursement. Between July 1, 2013 and November 30, 2013, the Stafford loan origination fee was 1.051%.
The interest rate for Grad Plus Loans first disbursed between July 1, 2013 and June 30, 2014 is fixed at 6.41%. Federal Direct Grad Plus Loans first disbursed on or after December 1, 2013 have a 4.288% origination fee deducted from the loan at disbursement. Between July 1, 2013 and November 30, 2013, the Grad Plus loan origination fee was 4.204%. Please note that students are advised to borrow their full Federal Direct Stafford Loan eligibility before borrowing a Federal Direct Grad Plus Loan. See loan comparison chart shown below.
Payment of principle and interest is deferred as long as the student meets the above enrollment requirements. Additionally, the Stafford Loan provides a 6-month grace period for loan repayment after graduation or ceasing half time enrollment (18 or more units). Repayment of Grad Plus begins within 45 days of the end of the in-school deferment, however you may defer payment for 6 months after you cease to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis. Students have the option of making in-school payments, including interest-only payments. Any unpaid interest that accrues while the borrower is in an in-school deferment period is capitalized when repayment begins (added to the principle balance on the loan).
There is no prepayment penalty on Federal Direct Loans. Federal Direct Loans offer liberal repayment options including in-school deferments, unemployment deferments once in repayment, military deferments, economic hardship forbearance, loan forgiveness for certain public service employees, etc.

*repayment of Grad Plus begins within 45 days of the end of the in-school deferment, however you may defer payment for 6 months after you cease to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis (18 or more units).
Federal Direct Loans disburse to the student's university account electronically, generally in 2 equal payments, one at the beginning of each semester covered by the loan, with each disbursement occurring no sooner than 7 days prior to the start of each semester. Students who borrow in excess of allowable student account charges receive a student account "refund" that may be used to cover living expenses and other allowable education-related costs. Refunds are generally available within 10 days after the first day of each semester covered by the loan. Students are encouraged to sign up for e-refund via Student Information Online in order to avoid paper processing delays during the refund process.
All first-time federal loan borrowers at the Tepper School are required to complete one or more entrance counseling sessions as part of their federal loan application process. Entrance counseling provides information about your rights and responsibilities as a federal loan borrower and requires you to correctly answer related questions at the end of the session. Federal funds are not disbursed until after completion of the required loan entrance counseling.
Complete Federal Loan Entrance Counseling via www.studentloans.gov using your federal PIN (the PIN used to complete the FAFSA). Be sure to indicate that you are a graduate/professional student and include Tepper's federal school code, E00074.
First-time Perkins Loan borrowers must complete Perkins Loan Entrance Counseling (in addition to Federal Direct Loan Entrance Counseling). Perkins Loan entrance counseling is done via our servicer's website, www.ECSI.net, using school code Z9, but only after being contacted by the HUB to do so, generally around the start of classes in the semester in which you are first offered a Perkins loan. These documents are not available to students prior to being contacted by the HUB.
Upon graduating, ceasing enrollment, or dropping below half time status (less than 18 units), all Federal Loan borrowers are required by federal regulations to complete online exit counseling. The session provides information about your rights and responsibilities as a federal loan borrower and requires you to answer related questions at the end of the session. Students do not need to notify The Tepper School upon completion of their exit counseling requirement, but are welcome to contact The HUB with any follow-up questions.
Federal Direct Loan borrowers complete exit counseling via The National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS).
Perkins Loan borrowers are required to complete a separate exit counseling session (in addition to Federal Direct Loan Exit Counseling) via our Perkins Loan servicer website, Educational Computer Systems, Inc. (ECSI).
Private education loans (also called alternative or non-federal education loans) may be available to students who do not qualify for federal loans, such as international students, or to students who wish to borrow private loans in lieu of federal loans. It is important to note that there is no income limit on borrowing some types of federal education loans, therefore, eligible borrowers are always encouraged to review and understand the costs, loan features and the many benefits of federal student loans and compare those costs and benefits to those of alternative loans before opting to borrow non-federal loans.
The interest rates on private education loans may be variable or fixed and the credit requirements, loan terms, loan fees, applicable grace period, application requirements, in-school payment requirements, etc. vary from lender to lender. Some lenders provide loans to international students who have a credit worthy cosigner who is a US citizen or permanent resident of the US. Contact individual lenders for details.
The maximum eligibility for private education loans is the average cost of attendance less financial aid from all sources. Individual lenders may have additional limits on the amount of private education loans that a student may borrow. Borrowers need to apply annually for each year in which they plan to borrow a private/alternative education loan.
The Tepper School provides an historical list of private loan lenders from whom our students have borrowed education loans during the past 3-4 years. Students may choose any lender they wish, even lenders not shown on our historical list.
April 16th is the suggested deadline for federal loan borrowers to submit the FAFSA and Tepper School Financial Aid Application. Students who do not meet the suggested deadline may still apply. The deadline is set to ensure that students have time to file their federal income tax returns before applying for financial aid and to ensure timely disbursement of loans for the Fall semester.
Learn more about applying for Federal Loans and begin the application process
The private loan application process takes several weeks to complete. Students are advised to apply for private loans no sooner than 90 days before the start of classes for the first enrollment period for which the loan is intended but soon enough to allow 45-60 days for your loan process. The loan application process is a proactive process between you and your lender so borrowers should keep in close contact with their lender to make sure that the application process is progressing as expected.
International students who wish to apply for education loans to cover costs for tuition, living expenses, and other education-related costs may apply for a private education loan with a cosigner who is a US citizen or permanent resident of the US. Private loans generally disburse in equal payments at the beginning of each semester covered by the loan.
Learn more about applying for Private Loans and begin the application process
Federal loan borrowers may want to consolidate their federal student loans into one new loan as a matter of convenience or for other reasons. Consolidation is not for everyone. For example, a student looking to lower payments through consolidation "may" be able to achieve that without consolidation through the extended repayment option. Whether or not to consolidate your federal student loans is a very individual decision. Review the information on http://loanconsolidation.ed.gov/help/faq.html before deciding whether or not to consolidate your federal student loans.
Loan deferment requests and verification of enrollment are handled by The HUB. You may be eligible for an "in-school" loan deferment if you are a regular student enrolled in an eligible program on at least a half time basis (18 or more units). Your lender may request that you complete an enrollment verification or loan deferment request. At the start of each semester, and once your account is paid in full, you may request an enrollment verification to be sent to your lender online via Student Information Online (SIO). Once you are logged into SIO, select "Academic Information" then select "Verification" and complete the required information. If you prefer to have a paper loan deferment form completed, please fax the form to The HUB at 412-268-8084.

The Josephine Garlock Morrow Tent #23 of the Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War 1861-1865 met on Jan. 22, at the United Methodist Church meeting room, Macon, with 11 members present.
President Elna Williams and Chaplain Aileene Burns opened the meeting at 1:40 p.m. Patriotic Instructor Linda Haley led the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. Secretary, Sharon Hutchinson, read minutes of the December meeting with two additions and corrections. Ruth Masten is the Chief of Staff and Catherine Llewellyn is Counselor. Marilyn Freeman gave the treasurer's report. Courtesy Chair Catherine Llewellyn sent a get well card to Gloria Winkler, who has been hospitalized; and birthday cards to Patricia Stewart, Anna Jones, Gloria Winkler, Ellen Daly, Phyllis Webb, Susan Leath, and Marilyn Freeman.
Elna reported there had been several e-mails to and from state officers. The Macon Public Library will be available for the February and March meetings. Several people have paperwork in progress for membership in the DUV. It was suggested that each new member give a brief history of their ancestor, and show a picture, if available. Program booklets, 2013, were reviewed.
Tent #23 will host the Missouri DUV State Department Convention June 7-8, 2013 in Macon. Members are requested to bring items for raffles, as well as "garage sale" items. Speakers have been arranged for and menus are being planned. Marilyn Freeman is the State President for 2013.
Marilyn Freeman presented the program on "An Illinois Civil War Prison" at Alton, Ill.. The Alton prison was built in 1830-1831. Unsanitary conditions aroused criticism from Dorothea Dix, pioneer in prison reform. All inmates were transferred to Joliet, Ill. prior to 1860. During the Civil War, the prison was re-opened as a Union prison. Wiley Gishem, of Dobbins, Ark., Wendell Freeman's great-great grandfather, joined the Confederate forces, fought for three days, and was captured and sent to the prison at Alton, where he stayed for over a year, dying of pneumonia. The Alton prison was said to have better quarters than the Union soldiers had. Confederate prisoners, approximately 600, were moved from McDowell College, St. Louis, early in the war, by the City of Alton steamer. In April 1862, smallpox hit the prison, and 200 prisoners were released to another prison, whose officer in charge returned them to Alton. In April 1865, prisoners who had served with Confederate General Sterling Price, were released. Over the years, roughly 500 Confederate prisoners took the Oath of Allegiance to the Union. A monument stands today at the prison marking the "burial of 1354 Confederate soldiers who died here and at the smallpox hospital on the adjacent island while prisoners of war and whose graves cannot now be identified."
After the meeting, Hostess Aileene Burns, assisted by Elna Williams, served refreshments to Gail Shoush, Marilyn Freeman, Sharon Hutchinson, Ruth Masten, Catherine Llewellyn, Linda Haley, Donna Ayers, Becky Lang and Ruth Thompson.

The Energy Risk Glossary, now in its eighth edition, provides an at-a-glance explanation of the myriad specialised terms and acronyms used in energy trading and risk management.
This year, the guide has been updated by Aviv Handler of ETR Advisory. Energy Risk would like to thank him for his input into this edition, which benefits greatly from his valuable experience and insight into energy markets.
The fast-changing nature of these markets means much has changed since our last edition – almost 200 new entries and revisions have been made this year. Reflecting the increasing importance of regulation, definitions of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFid) and the Ljubljana-based Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (Acer) make it into the glossary for the first time. A focus on improving back-office infrastructure and mitigating counterparty risk is also apparent from the inclusion of terms such as 'portfolio reconciliation' and 'portfolio compression'.
The glossary is extensively cross-referenced, making for easy and thorough searches. We hope you find it useful.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Bright pale yellow. Pure, discreet pineapple and stone aromas reminded me of a riesling. Brisk and focused, with a saline quality to the grapefruit and white pepper flavors. Terrific acidity and cut here. Finishes smooth, very long and perfumed, leaving behind a strong floral element in the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Vougeot Clos du Prieure Blanc caresses the palate with citrus, white flowers and minerals. There is a level of detail and nuance that distinguishes this undeniably appealing wine."

In 2007 Senate Bill 1031 was enacted, which called for the development of "end-of-course assessment instruments for secondary-level courses in Algebra I, Algebra II, geometry, biology, chemistry, physics, English I, English II, English III, world geography, world history and United States history." The purpose of the end-of-course (EOC) assessments is to measure students' academic performance in core high school courses and to become part of the graduation requirements beginning with the freshman class of 2011–2012. The EOC assessments for lower-level courses must include questions to determine readiness for advanced coursework. The assessments for higher-level courses must include a series of special purpose questions to measure college readiness and the need for developmental coursework in higher education. In addition, a student's score on each EOC assessment will be worth 15% of the student's final grade for that course.
Important Note: The EOC field-test schedule has been changed slightly in that the English III field test has been moved up by one year. English III will now be field-tested in 2010–2011 rather than 2011–2012.
The table below reflects the proposed schedule to field-test and implement the twelve EOC assessments.

With just a day before Election Day 2012, the amount of political mailers and robocalls voters get continue to increase.
Many fliers are about the local elections, but voters might also have gotten ads about the various state propositions.
Confused on which proposition is which? Not sure how to vote?
If you want to read the positions of non-partisan groups, follow this handy Proposition Voter Guide, with links, briefs and local opinion about each proposition to help you make an informed decision at the polls on Nov. 6
Nonpartisan Websites
California Choices- Includes an endorsements table featuring where non-profits, newspapers, unions and political parties stand on each proposition.
Maplight.org - Includes in-depth campaign spending information.
Proposition 30: Temporary Taxes to Fund State Programs
Voters will face two, some say conflicting, tax measures on this year's ballot. The first is supported by Governor Jerry Brown and is also known as the Schools and Local Public Safety Protection Act. The measure is intended to help close the state's budget gap and fund schools.
The act would raise the personal income tax rate for people who make more than $250,000 a year. Individuals who make less than $250,000 a year and couples who make less than $500,000 a year will not see an increase. The ballot measure would also raise the state sales tax by a quarter cent for the next four years.
The money raised from the tax hike is expected to generate $6.6 billion for education. If voters reject it, a series of trigger cuts that will result in a nearly $5.4 billion hit to education will be enforced.
Click here for more information on Proposition 30.
Proposition 31: State Budget
This proposition would allow local governments and school districts create plans to coordinate how public services are provided. These plans include areas of public health and safety, education, social services, and economic development. Governing boards for the county, school district and city must approve the plans. The proposition would allow local governments flexibility on how state-funded programs are administered and how property taxes are transferred.
The proposition would also place restrictions on Legislature's ability to increase or decrease state revenue and when they can pass bills.
Click here for more information on Proposition 31.
Proposition 32: Political Contributions
This measure seeks to reform campaign finance rules in three key ways. The first would ban employee paycheck reductions for "political purposes." The second would prevent corporations and unions from making direct contributions to state and local candidates or the committees that fund them.
The third would forbid government contractors to contribute to elected officials who were involved in the process that awarded them the contract. This would keep the contractors from contributing while that contract is under consideration or is in effect.
Click here for more information on Proposition 32.
Proposition 33: Auto Insurance Rates
Prop. 33 would change state law to allow insurance companies to set prices based on whether the driver previously carried auto insurance with any insurance company. Drivers who have not had prior, continuous coverage could be charge higher rates, while those who have had coverage could receive discounts.
Click here for more information on Proposition 33.
Proposition 34: Death Penalty Repeal
Prop. 34 would repeal the death penalty and replace it with life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. This would also affect individuals currently sentenced to death. According to the proposition, the measure would create a $100 million fund for law enforcement efforts.
Click here for more information on Proposition 34.
Proposition 35: Human Trafficking/Sex Offender
Proposition 35 would increase prison sentences and fines for human trafficking. A conviction for human trafficking would be require the offender to register as a sex offender.
Click here for more information on Proposition 35.
Proposition 36: Three Strikes Law
This measure would change California's current "Three Strikes" law by imposing a life sentence only when the crime committed is a serious, violent crime. This could allow some offenders with two prior serious or violent felony convictions, and currently serving life sentences for nonserious, non-violent felony convictions, serve shorter prison terms. This would not affect felons with prior convictions of murder, rape, or the sexual abuse of children.
Click here for more information on Proposition 36.
Proposition 37: Genetically Modified Foods
Prop. 37 would require labeling alerting consumers of any raw or processed food made from genetically-modified plants and animals. Genetically engineered food cannot be marketed as "natural" under the measure, although certain foods are exempted from this measure.
Click here for more information on Proposition 37.
Proposition 38: Molly Munger's Tax Proposal
This second tax rate measure would increase the state income tax rates for most Californians on a sliding scale, resulting in projected increased revenues of about $10 billion a year, according to California Choices. Revenues would go to K-12 schools and early childhood programs, as well as some of the state's debt. If voters pass both Propositions 30 and 38, the proposition with the most votes will pass.
Click here for more information on Proposition 38.
Proposition 39: Multistate Business Tax
According to California Choices, Prop. 39 would throw out an existing law allowing multistate businesses to choose a "tax liability formula that provides favorable tax treatment for businesses with property and payroll outside California." Multistate businesses' California income tax liability will be determined based on the percentage of their sales in California. Increased revenue is intended to fund energy efficiency projects and clean energy jobs.
Click here for more information on Proposition 39.
Proposition 40: Redistricting
Prop. 40 is a referendum on the California State Senate redistricting plan approved by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission. If the proposition does not pass, the districts will be determined by officials under the California Supreme Court.

(BPT) - When a person is in pain, he or she will seek options to attempt to reduce or eliminate the pain. For minor pains like headaches, muscle aches and small wounds, often over-the-counter drugs can help reduce suffering. But people with chronic pain may have to search for other solutions.
More than 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain, at a cost of $600 billion a year in medical treatments and lost productivity, according to a 2011 Institute of Medicine report. As of Jan. 1, 2013, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) started paying providers without formal training in pain medicine to diagnose and treat chronic pain.
The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) advises against receiving care from providers without training in treating chronic pain because patient safety can be seriously compromised. In addition to jeopardizing patient safety, untrained providers lower the quality of health care and can increase the risk for fraud and prescription drug abuse. Untrained providers lack the sufficient education and training needed to properly prescribe opioids, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP).
Clifton Phillips, 44, of Bowie, Md., has pain throughout his body. He suffers from osteoarthritis, migraine headaches, a herniated disc and a pinched nerve in his lower back, which causes discomfort and burning in his foot. For three years Phillips worked through the pain before he sought help from an orthopedic doctor who prescribed opioid pain medications for him. However, Phillips soon became dependent upon the medication and suffered significant side effects.
Treatment of chronic pain is complex and can be associated with significant complications. This is due to the potential for severe side effects from some of the medications used to treat pain and the anatomy and delicate structure of the spine and nerves upon which many chronic pain interventions are performed. Knowing that he couldn't sustain a successful lifestyle while taking the highly addictive opioid meds, Phillips looked for alternative treatment options through his neurologist who referred him to a highly trained anesthesiologist pain medicine physician.
'I encourage others suffering from chronic pain to do your due diligence, research your options and don't be afraid to ask questions about treatments,' Phillips says. 'I feel safe knowing a physician who specializes in pain not only safely administers my pain treatments, but also is able to diagnose and work with me to develop a customized and effective pain treatment plan.'
Specialized pain physicians have the education and training to accurately diagnose, evaluate and treat chronic pain patients using a comprehensive approach including medications and pain procedures. Treatments can range from medical management, physical therapy and psychological therapy, to interventional therapies and other alternative medical treatments. These therapies can be risky and require the skill of anesthesiologists or other physicians who possess the training and knowledge to provide safe, competent and appropriate care. These physicians complete a one-year multidisciplinary pain fellowship in addition to their post-doctoral training, according to ASA. A pain physician, like an anesthesiologist, is a patient's best solution to finding a well-trained provider to treat chronic pain conditions, similar to what Phillips was experiencing.
Dr. John F. Dombrowski, an anesthesiologist pain medicine physician and executive director at the Washington Pain Center in Washington, D.C., began giving Phillips steroid injection therapy for a month. Today, Phillips is completely off opioid pain medications and reports the burning in his foot subsided, making him a happier person.
'I look forward to being more spontaneous and enjoying my life - I believe with these treatments, this could become a reality,' he says.

Which lady has had the toughest and strongest overall competition and field to face throughout their career.
Which lady has had the toughest and strongest overall competition and field to face throughout their career.
Witt and Yamaguchi.
Witt had a deep field to beat in 86-88, many of whom were better skaters than she (although she was the best competitor). Yamaguchi had to face Ito and Harding who were the best technical skaters for women of all time, yet she was able to win over them based on her consistency at the big competitions.
I wouldnt really say Witt had that tough of competition. I would say she faced a very deep field with many excellent skaters, but it lacked in true greats. Other than Witt herself, and Ito who was not any contender in major events due to figures, there wasnt another skater around then I would classify as an all time great as much as I love Thomas and Kadavy.
Agreed about Ito but, I would say Thomas and Manley were on par or better than Witt. Certainly they were better technical skaters than Witt.
Also earlier in her career (pre 1985) she had to face Zayak and Sumners who were also on par with Witt (Again Zayak being a better jumper).
There's a lot of overlap in years here when you talk about entire careers, and it's kind of anachronistic to compare different eras. If I had the time, I might consider who had to compete at worlds against the greatest number of prior world medalists. I would qualify that the prior world medalist not be someone who had fallen out of top six contention. For example, Meissner in 2008 was too out of contention to be considered additional competition for Mao or Yuna.
Kwan- Chen (95, 96, 98 Olympics), Bonaly (95 and 96), Ito (96), Szewcenko (96, 98 Worlds), Lipinski (98 Olympics), Gusmeroli (99, 2000), Butyrskaya (99, 2000, 2001, 2002 Olympics), Slutskaya (97, 98 (2), 2000, 2001, 2002 (2), 2005), Hughes (2002 Olympics), Suguri (2003, 2004, 2005), Arakawa (2005), Cohen (2005 Worlds). 29 total out of 13 World/Olympics. Average of 2.2 per event.
Kim- Asada (2008, 2009, 2010 (2), 2011, 2013), Ando (2008, 2009, 2010 (2), 2011), Kostner (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 Worlds, 2011, 2013), Rochette (2010 Olympics), Meissner (2007), Suzuki (2013). 20 total out of 7 World/Olympics. Average of 2.9 per event.
Asada- Kim (2008, 2009, 2010 (2), 2011, 2013), Ando (2009, 2010 (2), 2011), Kostner (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 Olympics, 2011, 2012, 2013), Rochette (2010 Olympics), Meissner (2007), Suzuki (2013). 20 out of 8 Worlds/Olympics. Average of 2.5 per event
Witt- Sumners (1984 Olympics), Zayak (1982, 1983, 1984 (2) ), Leistner (1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 (2) ), Vodorezova (1984 Olympics), Ivanova (1984 Worlds, 1985, 1986, 1987), Kadavy (1988 (2) ), Manley (1988 Worlds), Kristofics Binder (1982), Chin (1986). 20 out of 9 Worlds/Olympics. Average of 2.2 per event
Yamaguchi- Ito (1990, 1991, 1992 Olympics), Kerrigan (1992 (2) ), Harding (1992 (2) ), Trenary (1990), Leistner (1989). 9 out of 5 Worlds/Olympics. Average of 1.8 per event, or 2 if we exclude the 89 Worlds.
Ito- Witt (1987, 1988 (2) ), Thomas (1987, 1988 (2) ), Kadavy (1988 (2) ), Ivanova (1987), Yamaguchi (1992 Olympics), Harding (1992 Olympics), Kerrigan (1992 Olympics), Leistner (1987, 1988 (2), 1989), Trenary (1990), Manley (1988 Worlds), 18 in 7 World/Olympic events. Average of 2.6 per event.
Slutskaya- Kwan (96, 97, 98 (2), 2000, 2001, 2002 (2), 2005), Arakawa (2005 Worlds, 2006 Olympics), Suguri (2005, 2006 Olympics), Chen (96, 98 Olympics), Lipinski (98 Olympics), Butyrskaya (2000, 2001, 2002 Olympics), Cohen (2005, 2006 Olympics), Ito (1996 Worlds), Szewcenko (96, 98 Worlds), Bonaly (96), Hughes (2002 Olympics), Gusmeroli (2000). 27 in 10 World/Olympic events. Average of 2.7 per event.
Chen- Yamaguchi (92 (2) ), Kerrigan (92 (2), 93, 94 Olympics), Bonaly (94 Olympics, 95 Worlds, 96 Worlds), Kwan (98 Olympics), Slutskaya (98 Olympics), Ito (92 Olympics, 96 Worlds), Baiul (94 Olympics), Szewcenko (96 Worlds), Gusmeroli (98 Olympics). 16 in 7 World/Olympic events. Average of 2.3 per event.
I didnt count years like the 1980 or 1981 Worlds for Witt, 1984 and 1986 Worlds for Ito, or the 1994 Worlds for Kwan as they themselves were not even top 6 contenders yet. I did count for Slutskaya for the 95 and 2004 Worlds as she was not a top 6 contender those years. I did not count the 91 or 97 Worlds for Chen for the same reason.
I also discounted skaters who were out of top 6 contention IMO by that point, while counting those who I believe were. For instance I counted Ito (7th 96 Worlds), Suzuki (11th 2013 Worlds), Szewcenko (10th 98 Worlds), Arakawa (9th at 2005 Worlds), Kostner (11th at 2003 Worlds), Ando (WD during LP, 2008 Worlds), Zayak (WD after figures, 83 Worlds) as there are valid reasons to consider them top 6 contenders those years, mostly based on other performances and results they had done that season internationally. I did not count Bobek (97 Worlds, 98 Olympics), Leistner (84 Olympics), Leonova (2013 Worlds), Kostner (2010 Olympics), Gusmeroli (2001 and beyond), Sokolova (any year as she was never a top 6 contender again after her World silver), Soldatova (same as Sokolova), Szewcenko (95 Worlds) as there arent any even semi valid reasons based on either their horrific showings at those events or/and lack of anything they had done recently to consider them top 6 contenders those years or at those events.
It does show one flaw of using that method however. For instance Leistner at the 89 Worlds is counted as competition for someone since she was both a strong contender there and a "former" World medalist, while Ito who isnt a former World medalist is not. Yet who was tougher competition to face at the 89 World, Leistner or Ito, LOL! Same thing, Manley is not credited for having to face at the 88 Olympics since she isnt a "former" World medalist yet, while someone like Leistner would be. You werent facing a "former" World medalist with Arakawa at the 2004 Worlds. You werent facing a "former" World medalist with Lipinski at the 97 Worlds. And so on.
Interesting to see Kristi comes last using this criteria however.
Ito did have to face some of the toughest competition as you mentioned, and she also had to straddle the two eras of figures and post figures.
Chen also had to face tough competition even if it doesn't show in that chart you did. By the time Chen was at her peak in the 95-96 season she had to face a just starting to peak Kwan, Slutskaya and a comback by Chouinard.
Chen always had it fairly tough, especialy coming from her vantage point of mostly being pigeoned as a bronze contender without strong federation or judges support like her competitors. As a youngster coming up she had to try to break into the medals against Yamaguchi, Ito, Kerrigan, Bonaly, Harding, all older and more established stars. Then she faced Baiul, Kerrigan, Bonaly, Sato, all at their best, and all arguably more favored by judges than she was. Then she faced Bobek, Kwan, Slutskaya, Butyrskaya, and continued facing Bonaly, and at the end of her career faced all those plus Lipinski as well. Any medal of any color she ever won was hard fought and earned, and skated very well for.
I voted for Kwan, since it seems like once she got one competitor out of the way and it looked like she'd win another Olympics, someone else would come along who could beat her. Granted, her main rivals were Chen, Lipinski, and Slutskaya, and only one of those managed to actually win an Olympics.
Ladies 1998 Olympics was a very tough competition. A lot of clean, or almost clean performances. A fantastic top 2.
How anyone could say Kim, when everyone always says she is unbeatable, is beyond me.
I voted for Kwan.
How is it possible for Kim or Asada to have had tougher competition than Ando, yet Ando is at the bottom of this poll and Kim at the top. Ando faced all the same field as Kim or Asada except Ando faced Kim and Asada, while Kim and Asada faced the other plus Ando. Kim and Asada cant face herself, they face Ando instead, while Ando faces both Asada and Kim. So there is no way Kim or Asada had tougher competition than Ando. To pick Kim and Asada over Ando as having tougher competition is to say Ando is a better skater than Asada and Kim basically.
Yes the results make no sense. If Kim is the best skater of this era, how do people who are not as good as her have less tough competition even though they are competing against her? LOL.
her competitors : Kwan, Slutskaya, Cohen, Arakawa, Kim, Asada, Rochette, Ando etc.
Kostner's WC results : 10th(03') - 5th(04') - 3rd(05') - 12th(06') - 6th(07') - 2nd(08') - 12th(09') - 6th(10') - 3rd(11') - 1st(12') - 2nd(13')

JOSH STEPHENSON/Durango Herald
Recently, about 20 children were taking part in the precious daily rite afforded American elementary school students – snack time – inside a Needham Elementary School classroom.
At one table, kids bit into apples and chatted amiably. At another, one little girl showed her friend the best way to prepare animal crackers, a delicate culinary process that involved thrusting them headfirst into the table.
What made this classroom different than all the others was that it was filled with home-schoolers, whose parents had enrolled them in Durango School District 9-R's Shared School Learning program, where, twice a week, home-school kids are welcome to take classes at Needham.
District spokeswoman Julie Popp said public schools have a lot to offer children who aren't enrolled in them.
"Socialization is really big, a very important aspect of education," said Popp. "The district opens its doors to any kid in the region. We even have some from Ignacio."
Popp said the program is a sign of its commitment to school choice, whereby every student could participate in sports, drama, music, clubs and special enrichment programs. "It supports the model of learning that the school district endorses as a whole," she said, "so if a kid wants to pursue math beyond his parents' level, he can supplement with an AP calculus class at Durango High School."
The district's take on home-schooling – come one, come all – and even its tone of voice, marks a departure from public schools' traditional view of home-schoolers, just as the 44 students now enrolled in the program mark a departure from home-schoolers' traditional view of public schools.
Historically, the antagonism between public schools and home-schoolers has been stark, and public dialogue frequently careened into vilification.
Home-schooling was viewed as the domain of religious extremists, bohemian losers and even cunning child-abusers. And education aside, denying kids the chance to go to public school was denying them a full experience of life, complete with band practice, bullying, proms, detentions, pig dissections in science class, student government elections, and ill-destined auditions for Our Town.
Such arguments were easy to make as recently as the 1970s, when the number of children being home-schooled in America hovered around just 10,000.
Today, nearly 2 million children are home-schooled nationally, and the home-school movement – once eager to reject public schools as hotbeds of iniquity and academic failure – is increasingly assertive.
Within the local home-schooling community, some members are sticking to the hardline.
Tommy Meadows, who has three children and served for years as president of Christian Home Educators of La Plata County until it disbanded two years ago, said since the 1970s, sharp criticisms of home-schooling had produced many misconceptions. Meadows said he and his wife Holly had attended public school, where they'd been elected prom king and queen. While kids' yearning for the typical high school experience was "something we relate to strongly," Meadows said his family hadn't taken the district up on its offers of support.
"No, and I don't want them to," he said. "The thing that I believe the Bible teaches about education is that the government doesn't do it," Meadows said.
But, in interviews, many parents saw programs such as Shared Schooling as opportunities to take an a la carte approach to their children's education, combining the individualized academic rigors of home-schooling with the inherent adventure, curricular range, and broad social exposure provided by public school.
Karen Edmondson, who runs Pine River Community Learning Center's Wednesday home-schooling program, said when she saw her child struggling in public school, she decided to home-school her.
"It worked out really well. There's a lot of distraction in a public-school classroom, not that that's bad, but some kids have a harder time focusing. In just a couple of years, we were able to cover four years of material." Edmondson said her daughter had since re-enrolled, at Bayfield High School.
In art class at Needham, fifth-grader Bailey Smith said she loved home-schooling. While she enjoyed learning at Needham, too, she said she sometimes found classes with other students overwhelming. What she really looked forward to at public school was drama class.
Third-grader Julian Colby said by being in the district's Shared Learning program, "we get the benefits of school, but we also get to hang out with our parents, and they are very nice."
His mother, Sarah Illsley, said while home-schooling had allowed her family to pick up and travel Mexico for a year, Julian "actually gets a lot of wonderful things through Shared Schooling. It offers drama, music, computer labs, physical education and Spanish. I think it's a magnificent program," she said.
In part, parents' willingness to use public-school resources is a sign home-schooling – which touts a diverse collection of poster children, including Margaret Atwood and Tim Tebow – has less to feel defensive about.
Many recent studies have found that home-school students have an edge in college admissions. The College Board, which administers the SAT, reported that home-school students tended to outscore their public-school counterparts by 72 points, or 7 percent, in 2002. According to a 2011 report by the National Home Education Research Institute, a prominent advocate of home-schooling, home-schoolers typically beat public school students by 15 to 30 percentile points on academic achievement tests.

Any cuts in state aid to cities or towns will result in higher local property taxes, the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities is warning.
CCM, the main lobbying group for towns and cities in Connecticut, is urging Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and the General Assembly to "protect the revitalized State-Local Partnership that has developed over the last two years" in the state's current fiscal crisis and not slash state aid to towns and cities.
"Despite the fiscal challenges facing the state, let's not turn back the clock by balancing the state budget on the backs of municipalities and local property taxpayers. At a minimum, maintain — at current levels — revenue sharing and funding to municipalities during the next biennium. Healthy towns and cities are the foundation of a more prosperous and competitive Connecticut," the group said in a statement released Monday.
The state is facing a $1.2 billion budget deficit as of the start of the next fiscal year on July 1, even though Malloy and the budget reached a budget-cutting deal in December that cut nearly $500 million from current spending. That budget reduction largely left local aid intact.
But with the new legislative session starting Wednesday and the need for more cuts rising, local communities are growing wary that the state will reduce aid to them.
A former mayor, Malloy has cultivated a friendly, more open relationship with Connecticut's smaller towns since taking office two years ago. The state's fiscal problems, however, now threaten those ties.
At a time when Malloy is under pressure to find ways to reduce the state budget, CCM wants to remind the governor of his promises to local communities.
"The state has made considerable efforts over the past two years to help municipalities stay afloat during the most challenging fiscal time since the Great Depression," CCM said. "Connecticut residents and businesses would be hurt badly if such investments were withdrawn."
