More insights from the 2012 NABE Economic Policy Conference
Last week, SouthPoint primary blogger Mike Chriszt and I traveled to Washington, D.C., for the 2012 National Association of Business Economists' (NABE) Economic Policy Conference (see Mike's previous post). After a few words from Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke, a flurry of breakout sessions ensued. One of the more positive ones I attended focused on state government finances.
Highlights of a regional economic update
Steve Cochrane of Moody's Analytics gave a regional economic update in this session, with his talk looking at the most recent regional data available through the lens of state government finances (a job growth forecast, for example, might hint at an increase in income tax collections). I was pleased, for at least two reasons, to see most of the Sixth Federal Reserve District's states in green, as the chart below shows, which indicates that job growth should be at or above the national average by the end of 2012, at least according to Moody's Analytics.
Another Moody's slide that may be of particular interest to SouthPoint readers is the one below, which shows that regional indexes measuring exports of goods and commodities were highest in the South at the end of last year. Of course, the chart reflects the Census Bureau's definition of the "South," which is not precisely the Sixth Federal Reserve District. Still, all Sixth District states are included in this aggregation.
State government finances
The part of the session that honed in on state government finances was encouraging, but hinted it may not be time just yet to uncork the champagne bottles at governors' mansions just yet. Though state governments have definitely seen their coffers begin to recover in 2010 and 2011, the deep losses seen in 2008 and 2009 still make the four-year period a net loss.
For the most part, layoffs among state and local government positions are likely at their end, if not close, and that revenues are picking up nearly across the board. For example, according to a March 19 Rockefeller Institute report on state taxes, 41 states reported gains during the fourth quarter of 2011, while just 9 reported declines in overall tax collections for the quarter . One of those nine states still reporting declines in state revenues, Louisiana, lies within the Sixth Federal Reserve District.
We also heard that states may be finding more creative ways to increase revenues. This sentiment is also reflected in a recent article in The Economist, which noted some significant budgetary changes the State of Georgia has made this session. They include:
- Eliminating taxes on energy used in manufacturing
- Taxing online sales in the state
- Setting a goal to lower personal income tax from its current level of 6 percent to 4 percent by 2014 (to be slightly more competitive with neighbors Tennessee and Florida, who levy no personal income tax)
It will be interesting to see what other states are doing in creative ways to spur economic growth over the course of 2012, but that's another blog for another day.

Product DescriptionThe NTK Oxygen Sensor is built for Kia Sorentos with model years 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Oxygen Sensors are necessary parts that are attached to the exhaust system to maximize fuel efficiency. An Oxygen Sensor tracks the gas to oxygen ratio by evaluating it to provide optimum mileage.

Terre Haute North grad Carol Weatherford has continued the success for Anderson University's volleyball team that she enjoyed in the first two years of her career.
The junior middle hitter was named to the all-tournament team earlier this season as Anderson went 2-2 in the Millikin Invitational at Decatur, Ill. Weatherford finished the four-match event with 35 kills, 14 digs, 14 service points and 14 blocks.
The Ravens are now 12-14 overall and 4-2 in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference season following Wednesday night's tough homecourt loss to second-place Defiance. The visiting Yellow Jackets won by scores of 32-30, 25-21, 23-25, 17-25 and 15-12 on Dig For A Cure Night to promote breast cancer awareness.
Weatherford had 19 kills, five service points, four blocks for Anderson. On the season, she is third on the team with 173 kills and has 77 blocks, 74 digs and 22 aces.
She is an elementary education major.

Hillary Lively signed to play Division II basketball at Maryville (Mo.) during her senior year at North Vermillion, but those plans changed and she would up at nearby Danville Area Community College — where she recently concluded an outstanding two-year career.
Lively was impressive enough to earn a Division I scholarship to Southeast Missouri State of the Ohio Valley Conference, and both her future and past college coaches think she will continue to succeed there.
"She fits what we need," SEMO coach Ty Margenthaler said. "She has college experience, she is strong and physical and plays well around the basket and moves well.
"Her strength, rebounding and touch around the basket will be a big help. On the defensive end, she'll be able to guard a true center." -

El Born
The tree-lined Passeig del Born is at the heart of the district, casting off its origins as a medieval jousting arena in favor of a modern shopping and nightlife hub, presided over by the imposing façade of the gothic St Mary of the Sea Cathedral. A cosmopolitan blend of locals and tourists fill the square's many tapas restaurants, cocktail lounges and chic wine bars during the evening hours, making it the perfect place to unwind after a day's sightseeing or catch up with friends in some of the city's most fashionable haunts.
El Born also houses some of the city's key attractions, most significantly the Parc de la Ciutadella, or Ciutadella Park, a 74-acre park centered around the striking Catalan Parliament building and fronted by the impressive Arc de Triomf. Barcelona Zoo is also part of the park, home to around 7,500 animals including dolphins, orangutans and snow leopards. The streets also harbor a collection of fascinating museums including the Picasso museum, devoted to the iconic Spanish artist; the Textile Museum, which pays tribute to the area's humble beginnings as a textile manufacturing site; the unique Mammoth museum; and a Chocolate Museum.

Schalke facing daunting task at Galatasaray
ISTANBUL — Schalke coach Jens Keller could hardly face a more daunting Champions League debut when his team visits Galatasaray for the first leg of the last 16 on Wednesday.
Keller was supposed to halt Schalke's midseason slump, but the interim coach has managed only one win from six games across all competitions since taking over from the dismissed Huub Stevens in December.

Landing a job as publisher: a 10-year sprint to the top
New York
``If I could invent my day,'' says Anne Sutherland Fuchs, ``and create whatever I wanted to do -- I'm doing it. Since the Woman's Day announcement, I wake up at the crack of dawn because I'm so excited.'' The announcement she is referring to came in late January, when Ms. Sutherland was named publisher of Woman's Day magazine -- the first woman to hold this top position on one of the country's major publications.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
That's right, the first. Not the first woman editor -- this key post has been filled by such well-known females as the late Betsy Blackwell of Mademoiselle, Helen Gurley Brown of Cosmopolitan, and Woman's Day's own Ellen R. Levine. While the editor is in charge of editorial content, the publisher of a magazine is responsible for its business management, for profit and loss -- in Ms. Sutherland's words, for ``the bottom line.''
At her desk between two walls of windows in her corner office high above Times Square, Ms. Sutherland looks sleek, attractive, and relaxed -- more like someone who has been managing magazines for years than like a ``new kid on the block.'' She fairly glows with confidence and enthusiasm for her new job.
``What's very nice about having a P&L [profit and loss] responsibility -- and this is my fifth P&L responsibility -- is that I get a grade every month. There's no argument about how I do. I get a grade so people know what I've done. My performance can be measured.''
Ms. Sutherland's ``grade'' in her new job will take the form of a magazine that is bought by 7 million American women 17 times a year -- a statistic of which she is very proud. Since Woman's Day has very few actual subscribers, 17 times a year women must make the decision to purchase it. The fact that 7 million do so with consistency, she feels, testifies to the quality of the product she is responsible for.
``I very much like the thrill of seeing somebody and knowing that this magazine goes into their home,'' she says, ``that they spend so much time with it, and that we're helping them in their lives.''
Perhaps even more unusual than the gender factor is the speed with which Ms. Sutherland has risen to the top in a very competitive field. Her entire professional life, in fact, spans slightly more than 10 years since her first job with Hertz Rent-A-Car in 1974.
Born in Brazil to an English mother and an American father, Ms. Sutherland grew up in Chicago and attended New York University. ``I assumed that I would be married and have a family,'' she says, ``and I didn't really think about a career.'' Then, after she was married, ``I was a housewife with a pretty glamorous life -- living in different places in the world, entertaining, and making a lot of hors d'oeuvres.''
When that part of her life came to an end, Ms. Sutherland moved to New York and started looking for work. Her visible ammunition for storming the job market? A degree in French literature, an interest in art history, and some experience as a docent at the Chicago Art Institute.
``I answered an ad in the New York Times to be an art gallery director,'' she recalls with some amusement. ``I went to the personnel agency and they said, `No, no, no. You're perfect for Hertz Rent-A-Car.' I said, `Great. . . .' So I went to work for Hertz in the car-leasing division.
``This was not long-range planning, and yet they couldn't have invented a better way to gain exposure to every kind of industry imaginable, and always at very high levels, because what we sold was car-leasing plans to corporations. I started as an assistant, went into sales very quickly, and then became the top person in the country, and the only woman in the industry. I was quite visible.''
How did she adjust to the radical switch from domestic to business responsibilities?
``After three years in solving some personal dilemmas, I realized, `This isn't so bad. Maybe I want to work for a living.' And I was surprised how well I was doing. It was survival, and my Midwestern work ethic. And that sense of survival has never stopped. It began workaholic tendencies that have kept on.''
Having decided that a career was what she wanted, and that publishing was her chosen field (``I'm a reader, not a viewer,'' she explains), Ms. Sutherland moved to the New York Times in 1977 as manager of the paper's national food department.
``Having been such a star at Hertz, I didn't realize what I didn't know,'' she recalls. ``I didn't know anything about advertising, but I did know sales.''

Read Aloud
Bringing her original insights into theory and philosophy to bear upon the controversial question of revision in Irish history, Evi Gkotzaridis presents the first historical and theoretical examination of the trailblazer historians who, from 1938, spearheaded an unpoliticized Irish history.
Drawing on hitherto unused archives, Trials of Irish History shows how the venture to disenthrall Irish and European history from official propagandas proved stimulating and challenging, but perilous.
Providing a new and stimulating conceptual framework for the study of Irish historiography, the book combines a theoretical approach with close analysis of important case studies and includes:
* an incisive restaging of the passionate joust that took place between revisionists and traditionalists in the shadow of the Troubles
* examination of the cultural contradiction of the first decades of independence, the estrangement of two regimes and the devastation of the Second World War
* comparison of the Irish Kulturkampf to similar discussions in German and France in order to identify and examine the arguments propounded on each side.
Prising open conflicting intellectual notions about the function of history in a divided society, this will be an informative and stimulating addition to the study of Irish history.

Investing in greener economy could spur growth
Greening businesses would help reduce ecological impacts by 50 percent in the next 40 years.

NAIROBI - Channeling 2 percent, or $1.3 trillion, of global gross domestic product into greening sectors such as construction, energy and fishing could start a move toward a low-carbon world, a report launched on Monday said.
The investment would expand the global economy at the same rate, if not higher, as under present economic policies, said the report by the U.N. Environment Program (UNEP).
"Investing 2 percent of global GDP into 10 key sectors can kick-start a transition toward a low-carbon world," the Nairobi-based agency said in a statement.
"The sum, currently amounting to an average of around $1.3 trillion a year and backed by forward-looking national and international policies, would grow the global economy at around the same rate if not higher than those forecast, under current economic models."
UNEP's Executive Director Achim Steiner said in the statement: "With 2.5 billion people living on less than two dollars a day and with more than two billion people being added to the global population by 2050, it is clear that we must continue to develop and grow our economies.
"But this development cannot come at the expense of the very life support systems on land, in the oceans or in our atmosphere."
Agriculture, buildings, energy supply, fisheries, forestry, industry, tourism, transport, waste management and water are sectors that could do with more greening, the report said.
Buildings are the single largest emitter of greenhouse gases because of inefficient heating in offices and homes, according to the study entitled "Toward a Green Economy."
Threegold increase in recycling
The sector's footprint could nearly double by 2030, or 30 percent of total energy-related carbon dioxide.
The report suggests investing $108 million in the waste sector annually could increase recycling threefold by 2050 and reduce landfill contents by more than 85 percent.
In Brazil, recycling already makes $2 billion a year while avoiding 10 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions, UNEP said.
Greener policies would still grow economies while reducing the ecological footprint by nearly 50 percent in the next 40 years, but some jobs would be lost as a result in sectors such as fisheries, the report said.
Investment in more sustainable productive activities would, however, offsets those job losses by developing sectors such as renewable energy.
Government subsidies in the fishing industry amount to about $27 billion a year and have created excess capacity and depleted fish stocks globally.
Greening agricultural with practices such as efficient use of water or organic nutrients would offer a means of feeding a global population of about 9 billion by 2050 without damaging nature.
Farming practices currently use more than 70 percent of freshwater resources and contribute more than 13 percent of greenhouse gases.
"Governments have a central role in changing laws and policies, and in investing public money in public wealth to make the transition possible. By doing so, they can also unleash the trillions of dollars of private capital in favor of a green economy," said Pavan Sukhdev, head of UNEP's Green Economy Initiative.

The Trick to Halloween Flowers
Wednesday, October 17th, 2012Spirited Flowers for Halloween Celebrations
Wednesday, October 26th, 2011For the very first time, we designed a Halloween bouquet for this spook-tacular holiday. Many of our customers had asked for one in the past so we're pleased to unveil the 2011 Happy Halloween Bouquet. It's bright and bold and the best part is its vase. It's actually a metal candle holder with a skull motif and we filled it with a glass cast insert to make it a functional vase AND a candle holder once the flowers have faded.
If you're looking for a dazzling treat to surprise someone on Halloween or need something spectacular to enliven an autumn occasion, Calyx Flowers is where you'll find all the finest fresh-cut flowers, plants, and other designs for fall.

Frebis and Williams star in 7-4 win over Ball State
Blue Raiders and Cardinals will play rubber game on Sunday
March 10, 2012 · Athletic CommunicationsFreshman Johnathan Frebis struck out six in Saturday's win over Ball State. (Athletic Communications)
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Johnanthan Frebis and Ethan Williams are both off to strong starts in their first season with the Middle Tennessee baseball team, and the duo kept it going on Saturday, helping propel the Blue Raiders to a 7-4 win over visiting Ball State at Reese Smith Jr. Field.
Frebis had another strong outing on the mound, tossing seven innings of two-hit baseball and allowing one unearned run while striking out six.
"Frebis was just outstanding today," head coach Steve Peterson said. "We needed a good start today, and he got it done. He had really good command out there."
Ethan Williams tallied his first four-hit day, going 4-for-4 and knocking out his first career home run in the sixth.
"I was a bit more patient at the plate today," Williams said. "I've been a bit more selective on my pitches to hit, and it has really paid off. It feels great to get that first home run off my back, it had been nagging me."
Both Matthew Drake and Hank LaRue hit homers as well. Drake ended the day 2-for-3 and LaRue finished 2-for-4 with two runs scored and two batted in.
The game was a pitching duel between BSU's T.J. Weir and Frebis for much of the early goings, but Drake broke up that deadlock in the fifth with a towering two-out solo shot to left to hand the Blue Raiders a 1-0 lead.
After Frebis put the Cardinals (3-8) down in order in the top of the sixth, the Blue Raiders added two more in the bottom half as LaRue hit his first homer of the season down the left field line, and Williams followed up with one down the right field line in the very next at bat.
"Williams just bombed it," Peterson said "He really turned on it. It's good to see Ethan have that kind of day. We hit a lot of long balls today, which we really hadn't done all season, but we've won."
A Williams error led to an unearned run in the seventh, and the Cardinals ultimately tied it up with two more in the eighth. Keaton Baker and Joey McClung both gave up a run over the first two outs, and left the bases loaded for Kooper Kessler. The freshman induced a groundout to end the threat and send the game into the bottom of the eighth even at 3-3.
Michael Adkins got things going for MT (9-6), leading off with an infield single to short before being subbed out for pinch runner Jordan Rorex. The junior later moved into scoring position on a Ryan Ford sacrifice bunt and scored the go-ahead run on a LaRue double.
A Williams single and a Justin Guidry fielder's choice plated LaRue, and Trent Miller belted his fourth home run of the season down the right field line, handing MT the 7-3 advantage going into the ninth.
Kessler gave up a run at the start of the ninth, but earned his first career win after Daniel Palo entered into a bases loaded situation and set down the final two hitters of the game for his second save in as many weeks.
The Blue Raiders and Cardinals will play in the rubber game on Sunday at Reese Smith Jr. Field. Jonathan Sisco will get the start for MT, and first pitch is set for 1 p.m.

- As Creative Director and Project Manager of Toolbox Spatial Designers we were commissioned to create a bespoke in-store decoration for Bud beer at Fragile Bar in Thessaloniki.
We had to come in a solution that would be fit for the bar called "Fragile". We came up with imitating wooden crates used to carry heavy materials or products. On those wooden crates we used stencils to label (fragile, protect from rain, etc). Afterwards we already had the logo and the tag line "Grab some buds" laser cutted on kappa mount and pinned them on crates.
Finally three of them had to installed on the ceiling and the one in the stairs. The one in the stairs was 295x190mm (h*w).

Hey really cool style, faces and color!Love it
Damn, I haven't been around in like a hundred billion years. First of all, thanks to everyone for all the great comments. Now here's some of the stuff I've done in the past year and a half; sorry for the crapload of images.
Illustrations for Wandering Men Studios, a gaming studio that produces a role-playing card game called Untold: http://untoldthegame.com/. I did several card illustrations for them:
Some sequential art practice. The first 4 pages are from an X-Men script by Mike Carrey (copyrights are obviously Marvel's), and the last one is a scene out of our D&D4 campaign:
A cover I drew for another Israeli comic book artist. I don't think it was published yet.
Some random personal stuff:
I'm currently working on a very long term comics project, and started a weekly illustration regime in my blog, to get me drawing and painting outside of said project. At first it was just to keep the blog alive, but now I'm really enjoying the weekly breaks and progress. Here are some of the highlights, and if you read Hebrew you can see all of them and more on my blog: http://www.avivor.com/blog
Paul the Octopus! Remember him?
(a guilty fangirl pleasure)
(For last week's EOW)
(For Darwin Day!)
Thanks for putting up with my lengthy absence,
Nice man! Your one hard worker. Cheers.
Great work! You handle many different styles, and I love your use of colors.
Your work also carries a lot of humor, making it a joy to browse through your art!
Very nice blog as well. I'm a little bummed I can't read Hebrew though...
"Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city."
Really nice work... I like the one with the red guy holding two daggers in today's update.
I just read through both of Chuck (patri)'s threads today, and noticed they haven't been followed up on since July '09... was going to bump the necro thread... but then saw this thread of yours.
awesome comic pages!
thank you for the giagantos update it looks delicious, som i've seen on your blog when you posted each sunday and some are new and looking fantastic
Another Israeli brother on forums. Tov Meod :p
Damn man you got really great skillz!! How do you do your lineworks that they are looking so clear and dynamic?
Love the Rat-bat-creature and this dragon-character is also really really great design.
And know i have to watch to all the other sides

There are several houses, i was in the main building accommodated. I was as well, everything looked as newly renovated from. The ladies at the reception do a good job, i am rarely somewhere so friendly greeted as there! Thanks schallgedämmter window, i did really quiet nights sleep. The room and the bath were clean cleaned and for one person also big enough. Had half board-the menu was satisfactory. Especially pleased the additional salad buffet with good and tasty products. The things from of the kitchen were not bad, but i was missing a bit the latter pep. The a ... or other pinch of salt, a bit of butter or a few herbs would almost for kulunarische joys catered for. Particularly praise i have the very extensive breakfast buffet, several types of fresh bread, rolls, nice cold cuts of sausage, ham and cheese, chocalate, eggs in several variations, so almost like 4 stars. Only-the stuff, what i was a 'coffee' sick-i found terrible. Friendly service staff completed a nice stay from.

Even when everyone and their mother knows the police are out in full force on the 1st.. people still get busted for alcohol related things. I didn't even drive on New Years because I knew the roads would be nothing but drunken morons and these mugshots prove that.. DUI after DUI.

Set an Email Reminder for Arrow
When: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 8:00 PM
The CW (and The WB before it) have found some success with comic book-based series. To be sure, not every television show they've offered up based on a comic book has been a success ("Birds of Prey"), some haven't even gone to series ("Aquaman" or whatever they were going to call that), but with "Arrow" they are, once more, on the right track. We are hoping that, eventually, they'll do a "Batman" thing, but that seems unlikely. Who knows though, maybe tonight's season one finale of "Arrow" is a backdoor "Batman" pilot. Keep those fingers crossed people. It won't happen (tonight), but keep those fingers crossed.

5 places germs are hiding in your home | Health
Title (Max 100 Characters)
Most people do a good job of cleaning the obvious places that germs hide in our homes. Faucets and door knobs are places that germs are spread from person to person, as are light switches. A good wipe with antibacterial cleansing cloths or other antibacterial cleaners is a great way to inhibit the growth of potentially sickening germs, which is especially important with the approach of cold and flu season, as well as the recent announcement about the increasing number of whooping cough cases in East Texas.
However, there are spots or items in your home that you may not be cleaning regularly. Check out this list and then go look them over inside your own home.
1: Behind the kitchen faucet. Sometimes the kitchen faucet and its handles get sprayed and wiped down, but the area between the faucet and the backsplash or wall gets neglected. Make sure to spray with disinfectant cleaner according to package directions, and wipe clean. Do the same for your bathroom faucets.
2. Cleaning sponges and towels. When you wipe germy surfaces with your sponge or towel, you pick up bacteria, and that can range from e coli bacteria to viruses and molds. Rinse sponges with hot water and soap after each use, and place them in the microwave for 60 seconds a few times a week to kill bacteria, as well. Towels should be washed in hot water with detergent weekly; use a new kitchen towel each day, or anytime after wiping up any soiled or wet mess.
3. Sheets, pillow cases, and blankets or spreads: Dead skin cells, dust mites and their excrement are the number one cause of allergies in our homes. Experts suggest getting your mattress and pillows steam-cleaned once a year. Wash sheets weekly, and duvet covers or comforters monthly, if possible, according to label directions.
You can also have your upholstered furniture steam cleaned if allergies are a problem in your home.
4. Your home's entry: the vast majority of germs in your home enter through the front door. Make sure to have a mat outside the front door, and inside as well, to brush your feet on before entering. Remove shoes upon entering your home, to avoid tracking all the bacteria from food spills, animal waste, and other germy things you've walked through in the course of the day outside your home.
5. Pet areas: your pets are a great source of love and companionship. They are also a source of bacteria and allergens. Make sure to sweep floors in your home frequently if you have a pet that sheds. Keep feeding areas wiped clean, and disinfect them weekly. Keep pet food dishes washed clean and wiped dry frequently, as well.
Check these areas out in your own home, and if you have more cleaning tips, send them to email@example.com.

3 reviewsThe Rio Forever Free Hair Remover uses IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) for hair removal over a large treatment area in a single application for quick, effective usage.
Placed gently against the skin, the Rio Forever Free's pulses of intense light are delivered directly to the hair follicle with enough energy to disable the root. IPL delivers quick and long term hair reduction leaving your skin feeling as smooth as satin.
The Rio Forever Free IPL Hair Remover is suitable for larger areas such as legs, arms, underarms, bikini lines as well as some areas of the face. Not suitable for Afro-Caribbean/black skin complexions or grey hair.
A great way to enjoy beautifully smooth skin without the hassle and expense of salon trips.
Before you start, do not use any hair removal method that plucks the hair from the follicle as this renders IPL ineffective.
Ensure you have patch tested the area to be treated 24 hours prior to treatment and are aware of your maximum power level.
Your firstRio Forever Free treatment will always be on power level 1 and can only be increased by one level after a treatment is performed.

Research Projects
My research is currently focused on a variety of geochemical applications especially those pertaining to the relationships among organic matter and other earth processes. I am in the process of concluding research examining the relationships among dissolved and particulate organic matter in zero-order forested watersheds in Mississippi and using organic matter as a proxy for sediment sources and transport. I am also conducting exploratory methods research examining the utility of soil volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as a means to differentiate among the processes associated with soil respiration and CO2 efflux.

Teaching Statement
My teaching philosophy is based on active, hands on learning. Whether in a formal classroom setting or in an analytical laboratory, my primary goal is to help students become comfortable with instrumentation and their ability to use it effectively. I teach students how to utilize technologies such as ion chromatography, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), dry combustion elemental analysis, and traditional wet chemistry. I have trained dozens of students in the basics of instrumentation and analysis, how to research methods to suit their analytical needs, how to develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), how to troubleshoot effectively, and how to develop and utilize Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures to ensure precision and accuracy of results. I prefer to teach students how to take ownership of their instruments and data in order to enable them to better understand the utility and reliability of their data.

I'm an Apple user and, yes, I like OS X more than Windows, but I'm not about to delude myself into thinking either platform is without strengths and weaknesses.
Unfortunately, the people who make the most noise and draw the most attention are the fanboys, and the moderate majority tend to stay silent. There's usually not much point in commenting since we're not often heard over the din of them.

If it could go wrong, then it did go wrong for the Marion County Knights on Friday night. Penalties, four turnovers and two kicks that hit the crossbar were all part of the Knights' 36-13 loss to the host Allen County-Scottsville Patriots (2-3). Big plays hurt as well. In the second half, Patriots senior running back Charlie Trapp scored on 77- and 71-yard runs, and sophomore quarterback Jessie Bow added a 59-yard touchdown run to lift Allen County-Scottsville to the win.
The Elizabethtown Panthers edged out the Ballard Bruins by one stroke to win the 2013 Marion County Invitational on Saturday at Rosewood Golf Club. The Panthers posted a team score of 316 to the Bruins' 317. Ryan Harris led the Panthers with a 74, which also tied him for second place in the individual scoring. Butler's Chase Wathen shot even par with a 72 to win the individual title. The Marion County Knights posted a team score of 339 finished sixth in the 18-team tournament. Logan Medley led Marion Countyteam socring with a 77.
The Marion County Lady Knights opened its week by defeating the Berea Lady Pirates, 4-1, in on Sept. 16. The Lady Knights (3-9-1) got on the board three times before the end of the first half thanks to junior midfielder Sara Tucker, junior midfielder Noel Obata, and senior midfielder Lindsey Browning. Senior forward Miranda Bradshaw would seal the deal for the Lady Knights by scoring their fourth goal. The Lady Pirates (4-6) would not go quietly, however, adding their only goal after Bradshaw's score.
Despite outscoring their opponents 15-7, the Marion County Knights lost two of their three matches last week to fall to 8-5 on the season. Marion County picked up a big win over Campbellsville last Thursday, but lost by one goal to both Danville and Elizabethtown.
Danville 4, Marion County 3 The Marion County Knights losing streak reached three games on Sept. 17 with a one-goal loss to the host Danville Admirals (3-8). "Our team did not show up to play," Marion County Coach Greg Conley wrote.

Marion County High School may see a new sport in the near future. Brett Underwood, a social studies teacher at Marion County High School, is proposing a bass fishing team. The team would be able to compete with other schools in Kentucky that already have bass fishing teams. In fact, bass fishing is already recognized as a sport activity by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA). The idea was proposed at a site-based decision making council meeting where Underwood thought it was well received.
